misinforming you. Perhaps you are just trolling in a nerdy way. At any rate I dont understand your problem with any of this. None of this is very controversial and I dont mind revisiting the issue.

You might find people who confuse (nutritional) ketosis with ketoaccidosis, but not people who work with ketosis in connection with say epilepsy.

If you want to maintain that this is hard to understand or controversial, you just miss out on an interesting side of human physiology.

And I still dont mind.
