But the vast majority of people drop out of keto diets very quickly. So it's lousy advice and an unsuccessful intervention.
It's a bit like saying to a patient "you gotta sacrifice -- you should doing 3 hours a day of cardio". If they do follow through with it, it will work. But the vast majority of people won't be able to maintain doing that.

The epilepsy version is indeed hard to maintain, but can be life changing (increase life quality in epilepsy, bipolar, schizophrenia etc)
The T2D version is way easier. If you studdy it or get a coach, you will know all the pitfalls. But its like therapy, you need to want it yourself. Cant be forced into it.
