Here is another good reason to go keto, it appears that it can help prevent dementia or Alzheimer's. The following is ab article from the L.A. Times titled "How to avoid losing your mind to Alzheimer's or dementia. Hint: Start now, says Maria Shriver." It does not mention a ketogenic diet directly but does state that healthy fats are necessary for the brain along with eating whole foods, sleeping enough, avoiding processed foods, and exercising. Elevated blood sugar and pre-diabetes can double your chance for dementia and Alzheimer's.

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.I am a firm believer that my mom's following that nonfat push by the medical community for decades absolutely contributed to her Alzheimer's. Absolutely!!
