Dangers Of Alcohol When In Ketosis
Hi all,

I cannot remember where I got this snippet from but it may be worth a read as we are now coming into the Christmas period and temptation is always around the corner!!

Link found: Post-exercise ketosis, ketone bodies

DO NOT DRINK ALCOHOL IF YOU ARE KETOTIC!
Alcohol is a powerful inhibitor of gluconeogenesis. In fact, it forces part of the gluconeogenic metabolic process into reverse. This means that if all the glucose in the blood is being derived from gluconeogenesis then the consumption of alcohol will inevitably cause the blood glucose level to fall. Worse still, the alcohol also stops ketone body production, thus leaving the brain entirely without fuel.
A person who is ketotic is 100% reliant on gluconeogenesis to maintain adequate levels of glucose in the blood. If, under these circumstances alcohol is taken, the person will become disorientated and might lose consciousness, not just from the alcohol, but from low blood sugar. Needless to say, this could be very dangerous, and even fatal.
Alcohol does not have these effects if the glycogen stores in the liver are normal. Under these circumstances the blood glucose level in the blood is maintained by the breakdown of liver glycogen, a process that is not influenced by alcohol. If a person becomes confused under these circumstances it is due simply to the pharmacological effects of the alcohol!

Drinking alcohol is a big no, no on a food replacement diet.

The above post is a very good post by Linda who has been a consultant for over twenty years with Cambridge Diet (now known as the Cambridge Weight Plan) which was originally created by the same makers of Lipotrim.

Well done Annie on getting to day two!

You would not be in ketosis yet but it would be like drinking on an empty stomach and most light give you a bad hang over and activate the hunger monster...

So you would have to start from day one again and sometimes that is not easy.
 
Annie just don't do it! Be strong and keep on your journey you are doing well.... first few days are tough so eat nothing else and drink nothing else and you'll be pleased you did.

Hi Annie,
I would recommend that you stay away from the booze. Got tempted on Good Friday (yo know...forbidden fruit etc) and had 2 glasses of white wine. It hit me like a freight train.
Never again. Still managed a 2 lb loss that week, but I'm on the straight and narrow from now on.
