POLL: Are you a woman who has tried a ketogenic diet? If so, please answer the question below! Stacy Toth of Paleo Parents and I are teaming up to give a talk on Womens Health at the Ancestral Health Symposium next week. Were going to be specifically talking about why womens bodies react differently to things like very low carbohydrate diets, very low fat diets, severe calorie restriction, and intermittent fasting. There seems to be some women for whom nutritional ketosis works wonders for (increasing weight loss, increasing energy, increasing performance at the gym, improving sleep quality). But many more for whom ketogenic diets seem to make the wheels fall off the cart (or that it works for a few weeks and then the wheels fall off). So, if you have tried a ketogenic diet (either keeping carbs below 30g per day or actually measuring ketone bodies) for any length of time, please select the answer that most closely describes your experience. A) I try to permanently stay in ketosis. I’ve been following a ketogenic diet for over a month and I love it. I never want to eat carbs again. B) I use a ketogenic diet to quickly lose some weight before a special occasion. It works well for weight loss for a week or two, but I feel awful the whole time and/or I don’t get the same benefits after 2 weeks. C) “I used to follow a ketogenic diet. I felt great for the first month and/or few months and then I started to have health problems. When I added carbs back into my diet, I felt better and/or I still haven’t really recovered. D) I tried a ketogenic diet and it didn’t work for me. I had thyroid symptoms and/or trouble sleeping and/or terrible energy and/or weight gain and/or mood issues and/or decreased performance at the gym and/or estrogen dominance symptoms If I get enough responses to this poll, Ill be including the data (just numbers, no names) as an informal poll in our AHS14 presentation! Please share with your friends so I can get the biggest sample possible. AND THANK YOU FOR TAKING THE TIME TO RESPOND!!!!!!!
