I started a low carb/keto diet last May. So far lost over two stone feel 100% better. I had no idea at the time that my gum health would improve so much along with the change in eating habits. It's like I have a different mouth no more bleeding gums, calcium build up. I'm in the UK, dentists should be advising this on check ups, though it's down to the individual to take action and benefit the results.
What if you have high energy needs ? I have weak enamel but im very active and very lean so carbohydrates like rice , fruit, oats are my go to will swapping these for more fats help
it's possible to follow a vegan ketogenic diet. This diet focuses on very low carbohydrate intake, moderate protein, and high fat intake. The goal is to shift the body's primary fuel source from glucose (from carbohydrates) to ketones (produced from fat breakdown). Vegan Diet: Excludes all animal products, including meat, dairy, eggs, and honey. Key Considerations for a Vegan Keto Diet: Carb Restriction: This is the biggest challenge. Many vegan staples like beans, lentils, and most grains are high in carbohydrates. Fat Sources: You'll rely heavily on plant-based fats like: Avocados Nuts (macadamia, walnuts, almonds) Seeds (chia, flax, sunflower) Coconut oil Olive oil Protein Sources: Tofu Tempeh Nutritional yeast Seeds Nuts Leafy greens Non-Starchy Vegetables: These are key! Load up on: Leafy greens (spinach, kale) Broccoli Cauliflower Bell peppers Mushrooms Onions Nutritional Deficiencies: Vegan keto diets can be restrictive and may increase the risk of nutrient deficiencies (vitamin B12, vitamin D, omega-3 fatty acids, calcium, iron).

It certainly will reduce the glucose spikes and potential for insulin resistance
protein and fats over carbs
