Excellent list or articles, Mila
The list has an objective collection pro- and anti-. We have a similar collection in our studies pages.
But first, I take it that you are of the opinion that 40/30/30 with 0.6 grams protein for every pound of LBM is not a ketogenic diet?
If so, why not? This formula may yield 20-50 grams of carbs above ones Atkins/PP limit (but not always) for individuals, but that won't stop ketones by itself.
While reading the Zone, I decided to follow it for a week, and I was still in ketosis. Very mild though, but it was visible. Even if your ketostix doesn't indicate ketones, it may still be there. and for many people, they have to eat much more carbs to avoid ketone production, it they really though it's unhealthy.
Just some food for thought.
Wa'il
