Maybe someone can post a link or an answer to this question which I was thinking about the other day. Sorry if this has already been asked.

I was at the gym thinking about how exercise burns fat (I actually don't really know exactly how it works - exactly.)

Question is: Is the body's fat burning process the same in exercise as it is in ketosis?

It seems to me like the body would have to go through the same steps to burn fat whether it's through exercise or ketosis (whatever exactly that process is.)

The way I understand it is when a person exercises, stores of glucose and fat are being burned for fuel.

If exercise and ketosis are handled the same, wouldn't that automatically make the Atkins diet good for you?

Any thoughts?
