The diabetes and obesity epidemics continue to worsen for which ketogenic diets are one of if not the best dietary intervention for. And ketogenic diets are not necessarily high meat diets they can vegetarian or even vegan. It should ideally be mostly whole foods but it is just high fat low refined carb low sugar diet that happens to be great at treating diabetes and obesity.

Ketogenic diets are one of if not, the most studied diets in the world. Just go to clinicaltrials.gov and type in keto or low carb and you will see hundreds more clinical trials in the works for a variety of conditions, everything from Alzheimers, epilepsy, gout and more. And while you can live off a diet high in grains and even live quite healthily doing so provided its not copious amounts of refined grains and sugars, it is easier to reach nutritional requirements from fatty animal products and fish.
