How Does a Low Carb Diet Affect Cognitive Function? | Ketones are the byproducts of metabolized fatty acids found in many of the foods people eat when on a low carb diet plan, including avocados, almonds, eggs, and fish.  The brain responds to the drop in glucose by running up to 70% on ketone bodies. The brain runs much more efficiently on ketones than on glucose alone.

I gained 6 pounds since before camping but I’ve been really good with my eating a...
