And everyone in the world is exactly like you! That makes it so simple.

The diet they recommend for kids is VERY restrictive and not very palatable. I think they're also calorie restricted. The level of ketosis they go after is much higher than what a typical LC dieter achieves. They emphasize a drinking a LOT of cream. This sort of thing is VERY foreign to someone that hasn't been indoctrinated into LC like we have been.
