Rules for Posting Guides on Our Community
1. Defining a Guide Guides are comprehensive reference materials, how-tos, or comparison tables. A guide must be well-organized both in content and layout. Information should be easily accessible without unnecessary navigation. Guides can include flowcharts, step-by-step instructions, or visual references that compare different elements side by side.
2. Infographic Guidelines Infographics are permitted if they are educational and informative. They should aim to convey complex information visually and clearly. However, infographics that primarily serve as visual essays without structured guidance will be subject to removal.
3. Grey Area Moderators may use discretion when deciding to remove posts. If in doubt, message us or use downvotes for content you find inappropriate.
4. Source Attribution If you know the original source of a guide, share it in the comments to credit the creators.
5. Diverse Content To keep our community engaging, avoid saturating the feed with similar topics. Excessive posts on a single topic may be moderated to maintain diversity.
6. Verify in Comments Always check the comments for additional insights or corrections. Moderators rely on community expertise for accuracy.

Keto diets don't really create a caloric deficit. Instead, it fucks with your metabolism by inducing ketosis in conditions you normally wouldn't. Essentially, you're tricking your body into thinking you're starving, which means you start breaking down fats when you don't need to. I hear it's absolutely miserable and bad for you, too.
Intermittent fasting does something similar, if it's done correctly. Shit is wild.
Close but not exactly, your body is capable of freely switching between fat or carb burning. When your body really thinks it's starving, it will start "eating" your muscles instead.
Fat burning gives steady supply of energy instead of the highs and lows of energy dense carbs. You feel this the hardest after lunch, on carbs you'll often feel tired and sluggish. You don't have this on keto.
Switching into keto can be a miserable experience though, so you're right about that. Once in keto it's chill.
