I really hope that you're taking a multivitamin.
The problem with the kids that live on ketogenic diets is getting the A, D, E, K, and trace elements that you cannot get from meat and green veggies. 90% go on calcium and ADEK supplements. about 75% have trouble with bone density after a few years.
Basically, ketosis is starvation and forces the brain to burn fat for energey (oversimplified, I understand). However, there are risks to the liver and brain function that are found enough to warrant some concern. Even though, I admit, I'm the one that posted up about not getting over excited about health-related new reports. I have second-hand personal experience with this one, working with kids on the keto-diet related to seizures. They can't have leafy greens, though. But, if you don't do Keto responsibly (adding in vitamin supplements), you can have damage to body organs that depend on some measure of fats and carbs for survival.
