Doc, you are living proof that eventually statistics will soon be on both sides of any contentious argument.

In my drunken state, everything you said with a study, I found one that says otherwise...assuming I can read.
All of those damn studies can easily be refuted with even more asinine studies...
gold standard and such. But at the end of the day, when bodybuilders want to cut adipose tissue, the macro they eyeball first is the CARB. Carb cycling, low carb, no carb...whatever.
Carbs are the preferred source of fuel in the body. You cannot escape this fact. When carbs (simple especially)are present, they are generally prefered over fat. To deny is a lie.
Also, to say that the calories subtracted from carbs are added to fat--complete misdirection.
I'm all about winning an internet war, but we all know that a low carb diet is generally accepted to be MUCH higher in protein. In fact, add the carbs Cals to the protein when I really need to shed the fat. Only a dipshit takes the carbs out and adds the freed up calories to the fats. That kind of moron would deserve to be fat. And to boot, most people know that they should be consuming more MCTs and not LCTs because they are more readily available to be oxidized and less likely to be stored as fat.
There a good ways and bad ways to drop fat. VLcarb is a fantastic way. People piss on it for the same reason they piss on cardio. It's not cool to do a "fad."
Here's my understanding of why keto works so well, from the words of Mark Bell: It's the fact that you have to actually be more disciplined in tracking calories, so to actually do keto your foods are so specific. It's easy to eat a ton of fat, someone could just eat spoonfuls of coconut oil if that were the problem. But that fact that you're more inclined to be strict and get each meal just right is the big part here. That being said that applies to any diet
i get the whole ketosis thing may aid in the fat loss too. Tbh I'm interested in trying keto during this first cut since I started lifting, because reports of 13lbs in 4 weeks is very appealing to me
You have to be disciplined losing weight using any method though.
