A Tale of Two Ketos (Diet Culture Keto)

Keto became a popular weight loss diet in the 1990s and has been a mainstay of diet culture ever since. Promoted as the ultimate solution for weight loss, mental clarity, and better health, keto has earned a loyal fanbase. But do these bold claims actually hold up under scientific scrutiny? And can anyone realistically maintain such a restrictive eating pattern in the long term? Join us, two Registered Dietitians, for the second in this two part series, A Tale of Two Ketos. Today it's time to tackle “Diet Culture Keto.” Want to support the show and get bonus episodes? Join our Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/nutritionformortalsWe’ve got MERCH!
