Keto Diet Shows Stronger Liver and Metabolic Benefits in Small Trial

In a small randomized trial of 42 adults with obesity, prediabetes and fatty liver, a ketogenic diet (4% carbs, 73% fat) produced greater improvements in liver fat and metabolic markers than Mediterranean or low-fat, plant-forward diets. About half of the keto group no longer met prediabetes criteria, vs 29% (Mediterranean) and 7% (plant-forward); all groups lost weight and fat and improved insulin sensitivity. The study notes weight loss is the main driver of metabolic health and cautions the small sample size and short duration mean results may not generalize, and keto may not suit everyone.

Ketosis-Linked Rash Sparks Doctors’ Investigation into a Mysterious Keto Side Effect

A 20-year-old man in Taiwan developed a red, itchy rash with pigmented patches after starting a ketogenic diet. Biopsy showed inflammation but no other common skin conditions, and clinicians diagnosed prurigo pigmentosa, a rare rash linked to ketosis with an unclear mechanism. Current thinking suggests high ketone levels trigger neutrophil-driven inflammation around blood vessels. Treatment: stop ketosis and give a two-week course of doxycycline, after which the rash resolved in about a week. The case highlights both potential keto-diet risks and the gaps in understanding this condition.

Ketosis-Linked Rash: A Rare Keto Diet Side Effect

A NEJM case report describes a 20-year-old man who developed prurigo pigmentosa, or 'keto rash,' after starting a keto diet; the itchy, net-like rash appeared on the neck and chest, is extremely rare (about 300 documented cases worldwide as of 2019), and typically resolves once ketosis ends, with treatment usually involving stopping ketosis and sometimes tetracycline antibiotics.

Comparing Vegan and Keto Diets: Rapid Impact on Immune System

A study by the National Institutes of Health found that switching to a vegan or keto diet for two weeks led to distinct immune system responses in participants. The vegan diet primarily affected innate immunity and red blood cell pathways, while the keto diet influenced adaptive immunity and a wider range of proteins. Both diets significantly altered participants' microbiomes and metabolic processes, demonstrating the rapid and diverse immune responses to dietary changes. This research suggests potential for tailored diets to prevent or complement disease treatments.

"Fasting and Keto: A No-Exercise Way to Lose 40lbs and Enter Ketosis Quickly"

Emma Van Carlen lost 40 pounds through fasting and a ketogenic diet without exercise. She started with an intermittent fasting schedule called OMAD, where she ate just one meal a day, and then did a mix of intermittent fasting schedules as well as some longer fasts of 48 hours or longer. She also switched to a ketogenic diet, which got her body fat adapted, meaning that she felt less hungry, was able to fast for longer, and could keep her insulin levels constantly low, which supercharged her fat loss. She also cut out alcohol and all sodas and anything with artificial sweeteners. She believes that fasting melted her fat off and has become a Fasting Coach to help others achieve weight loss and health through fasting.

Reconsidering the Risks of Low Carb Diets.

A new study has found that low fat diets can extend a person's lifespan, while low carb diets can increase the risk of an early death. Researchers from Harvard University and Tulane University teamed up with Chinese scientists to study the links between diet and length of life. They found that people who ate a low fat diet, whether healthy or not, significantly reduced their likelihood of an early death, compared to people on high fat diets. Meanwhile, people on keto-like diets were 28 percent more likely to die from any cause when compared to their high-carb peers.
