Any using this to help increase FAT levels when eating high protien/high fat and low carb diets to lose weight?

Looks like a great product to add to protien shakes and meals to give that fat?

Along same theory as by bacon thread this!

Are you doing a ketosis diet or something mate?

Just high fat intake is normally only done with no carb not low carb diets.

I'm cycling my carbs at the moment but certainly don't add any fats other than essential ones.

Just interested.

Well i read quiet a few times that if you eat LOW carbs and high protien without adding a good amount of fat at the same time that the body will simply turn the protien into carbs for energy... 1. wasting protien, 2. defeating the point of trying to get it to eat fat and 3... wasiting protien! LOL

Unless i missed the point here?

@Pauly - High Fat Low Carb is fine (when done correctly...) - think along the lines of a TKD/CKD rather than a zero carb diet

@Gaz - Yes IMHO you need an energy substrate to "buffer" the protein.

I'd say it was a fact but I can't be bothered to hunt out the stuff to back it up

Depends how low the carbs are mate. If your just going down to 100-200g per day that extra fat is going to mess things up.

But as TH said ketosis diets require the high fat intakes so I'd feel fine adding the coconut milk :-)

edit: sorry when you put low in bold I get it now that you meant ketosis kind of low
