But that may affect folks baseline blood glucose and lipid levels which are not good for some people. Especially hypertensives and folks with heart problems...
I agree, I think these super-extreme diets are way too risky... It is about moderation, IMO. Don't eat too many carbs, don't eat too many calories, don't eat too much meat. It is as simple as that. Keeping your body in any extreme state cannot be good.
