This kind of has me wondering if this is actually good for the body. Ketosis is not without downsides. Alcohol actually acts much the same way in someone completely not used to it. Interesting to hear that it's not just me, and the people who do this all the time also suffer.

So the idea is to ignore the body's defense mechanism in order to... what? Lose weight? Feel good about having suffered through this? I guess I'm trying to figure out the upside. Like lowered social inhibition with alcohol :)
