And what a cracker! Nice to hear you've had such a postive change, mainly from doing "simple" things. In a world of complex science and nutrition advice flying around willy-nilly.

Re: Cycling in Ketosis
Hi
How are you - I will try to reply as I can..
Than by other means of ATP production (using carbs) .
Where (source) - any textbook I read 140 ATP with beta oxidation, from saturated fat
But I also mentioned in theory and mentioned if other pathways are in order ( fat utilisaiton and reabsorption, bile ducts working properly, which most people will not be able to know from correlation to externally visible differences..that always having maybe large margins of errors)
Source of estrogen re cycling - Dr Neal Barnard (Utube - How foods affect hormones)
No worries hope this is useful

The number of molecules of ATP per what? With beta oxidation that's totally dependent on the chain length of the fat being metabolised.
This only means that some fats have long chains. It doesn't mean that there is any benefit in oxidising them rather than anything else.LeBikiekat wrote: ↑5 Oct 2021, 5:04pmWhere (source) - any textbook I read 140 ATP with beta oxidation, from saturated fat

Re: Cycling in Ketosis
Actually, there is a host of cyclists and research on fat adaptation.
As I am not biased about any energy system benefits a person might like I look at all approaches neutrally so as to let a person be in a position of empowerment to make the sensible choices they wish without bias.
