I have to say, I have never really been a fan of the keto diet. You can lose weight with it, sure. My whole thing about it is that people on the keto diet are not eating enough fruits and veggies because they are high in carbs. What about the micro nutrients? Anyone else feel that way?

Thanks for your thoughts, I agree that some people definitely miss out on the proper micros from fruits and veggies, but you can actually eat a significant amount of veggies while on a keto diet - I eat veggies with almost every meal - spinach, broccoli, mixed, etc... As for the micros from fruit, most, if not all of those micros also come from veggies and meat but I also take a multi-vitamin. As long as the keto diet is supplemented with sufficient veggies and meat, I don't see a micro nutrient problem, IMO.
