Thank you Alpha1 and Bisbee gal. I have read both the article and the Harvard study. That said, all drugs come with some risk and frankly after being mislead by the American medical community regarding a "healthy" diet which has lead to an obesity epidemic, I look at all of these warnings with a pound (!) of salt. My first questions would be 1) how many in the control group developed dementia anyway and 2) what was the health status of those who did develop dementia and 3) were there other potential causes? As we all know by now, correlation ≠causation.
Before going keto, the doctors had me on 6 different drugs and I couldn't run 50 feet (pre-diabetic, high blood pressure, acid reflux, etc). All of which is now long gone. Wanna hear what the doctor said after losing 70 lbs? "Whatever you're doing, keep on doing it" and this is from the person who should have informed me on how to get healthy. I hope you can see why I rarely accept the current medical opinions and would rather research it myself. Thanks for trying though.
