Health Aspects Positive • Fast weight loss • Burn fat faster • Very simple • Low in saturated fats • Encourages individual experimentation Negative • With very little carbohydrates available for exercise or daily activities the body begins producing 'ketones'. These ketones are the leftovers from fats broken down in the body. This makes you start to store fat
