Is this a real question?
Are people really only eating meat and butter and then being confused by why they're not healthy?

To be clear, my partner has a seizure disorder which results in 3-10 seizures per day on average if she is eating carbs and on this diet she has less than 1 per day. In terms of seizures this is way better than any anti epileptic medication she has been on and is actually stable for an extended period. The issue we are having is not whether this is better than eating the standard western diet, it is about why she is inhibited from reaching a higher level of ketones. If you think eating meat, butter, and water is a bad idea, cool, good for you, but I don't need your opinion.
Bruh...
Sometimes keto can help...
But no medical professional ever told anyone to just eat 3 fucking pounds of meat and some butter every day.
Which YouTuber told you this was a good idea? It sounds like some Peterson bullshit
Eating carnivore is not a real diet and causes severe dietary deficiencies and illness like fatigue. It was made up mostly by James Salisbury in the 1800s to sell salisbury steaks. It's literally a centuries-old marketing gimmick that has been repackaged by new companies and investors every generation.
