are there any benefits to being in ketosis? I have noticed that my digestion system is a lot better, even night and day when compared to before. My IBS has disappeared.
I have had high blood pressure, before starting. What are your thoughts?
Also, I would be very happy if I could lose body fat, but have muscle mass replace it. I think that muscle and fat are about the same weight.
let me know what you guys think.
thanks
A pound of muscle definitely weighs the same as a pound of fat; a pound is a pound. However, a pound of muscle takes up less volume than a pound of fat.
If it's working for you, keep doing it.
There are 3 loves in my life: my wife, my English mastiffs, and my weightlifting....Man, my wife gets really pissed when I get the 3 confused...
