Short answer: Yes.
Long answer: Yes.
tl;dr:
You eat a lot of protein & healthy fats. You eat no more than 25g of Carbohydrates. Your body decides to burn fuel from your fat sources (basically infinite). You gain more energy, more awareness, less naps, and your body fuels itself almost like a Tesla.
Pros:
You burn fat and lose weight very easily. It's very difficult to overeat your calories.
Less carbs in your diet usually leads to better stomach health.
Less candy, juice, soda, alcohol, and other carb heavy foods makes them taste better.
Better brain function.
More energy.
Great for losing weight or for gaining muscle.
Cons:
Keto Flu sucks. First week or so you feel like garbage until you hit ketosis.
You HAVE to track your carbohydrate intake well OR you will fall out of ketosis.
Sugar/carb withdrawal. Sluggish and weak. I suggest caffeine (black coffee).
I did Keto for a year and a half and it was great for shredding weight. The only reason why I no longer use Keto is because I need more carbohydrates to fuel my heavy lifting. It's a great lifestyle change and IMO teaches you how to treat food more as a FUEL vs a LUXURY.
When you eat more healthy, it makes the actual luxury foods taste better.
