9NEWS – Explaining the science behind the keto diet

Watch Dr Gerber's interview on 9NEWS

Is a keto diet masochistic and artery clogging? Not at all. Here’s my rebuttal to local bariatric surgeon who is critical of these types of diets. I find his position surprising considering that keto diets are safe, effective, very easy to do long term and most importantly backed by science. Listen as I attempt to concisely explain, in all of three minutes!

Thanks to 9NEWS (KUSA) for the invite.
