People sometimes wonder 'where will I get my energy when I am not eating carbs?' - at least not in any significant amount. This video explains the processes that lead the body to use ketones as its primary energy supply instead of glucose. There are a wide range of benefits to this and Dr. Volek even talks about record breaking distance runners who eat very low carb diets. It looks like carbo loading before a race may have been another dietary myth.
This is an hour well spent.
