When you are fat you need to cut down carbs for a while to allow cells to into burning fat for fuel. Keto diet is a very useful tool to loose weight but not yet proven to be healthy long term. Carbs are not unhealthy if sourced from wholefoods since they will always come with the one very important thing keto diets lack: fiber.

Ya, you can't eat bad fats. You need clean fats. Not all carbs are made the same. Fructose consumed by real fruits is good.

Fructose consumed by real fruits is good.

Fruits are pretty good because they contain important micronutrients and fibre. But the fructose they contain is still just sugar, and not a whole lot better in its own right than the sugar in lollies and biscuits.

Ya, still gotta make sure to not blow past the 20g of sugar with fruits.

Agree. Whole foods should be the staple of a healthy diet.
