This is humorous considering you'll get better advice from the bodybuilding forums than 99% of the books you read regarding "diets". I know because I'm certified.

This is one argument against ketogenic diets - that your brain run on glucose and fat oxidation does not create glucose which is the prefered food for your brain. This is why when you starting ketogenic diets, it takes usually 2 weeks to adjust and you get foggy and cant think well... becuase you brain adapts to new fuel type (ketones)

That's not why you carb up after two weeks. It takes around that time to get into keto for the first time and deplete your glycogen levels..
