Guest guest Posted October 11, 1999 Report Share Posted October 11, 1999 Penny, I did read Atkins book, that was what struck me as odd. Dr. Atkins clearly says it's ok. But what I got from The Hellers was the the ketones themselves are poisons to your body so you shouldn't be in ketosis... It's probably one of those things that different doctors have different opinions. i'm just trying to understand it better. I'm not sure if I got it here or not, but i read a webpage that said your body can actually use those ketones for something. I'm just confused!! Cathy From: Shadcat708@... Subject: Re: Oprah Cathy, Ketosis is explained in Atkins book on page 57-63. It says that when you burning Ketones you are burning fat, now they said when you body is burning ketones it is burning poisons!! How can not burning poison be good?? At least I thought that is what they said?? They confused me on this point. Frist they said ketosis was bad, and never really said why and then when explaining ketosis they said it was the burning off of poisons from eating not enough carbs. She didn;t explain it exactly like that but thats what I got out of it. I am going re-read that part tonight and see if I can unconfuse me!! There is too much going on around here right now.
