I've been at or near ketosis levels of low carb since around 2013; I used it to get over a fourteen-year eating disorder (anorexia->bulimia->BED->freedom). If I had infinite money/time, I'd love to run trials on its effects on impulse suppression completely separate from weight loss. There are some interesting parallels between it and the off-label uses of anti-epileptics. It's been fun watching the sea change towards acceptance of it. When I first started, most people I encountered were weirdly confrontational about it, but now it's pretty pedestrian. Granted, I had a now-embarrassing proselytizing phase at the beginning and quickly learned to keep my mouth shut unless asked. |
