1/ Make no mistake -- this is a biggie. Props to @ethanjweiss, @cadiulus, and @TheVeggieMD for helping to make this possible.

While I personally land more on the animal product side of #Keto, I wish #PlantBasedKeto would get more attention as a choice many can explore...
2/ In @ethanjweiss's second bullet he states:

"We believe that eating all or mostly plant-based fats is not only possible but very possibly optimal for cardiovascular health."

Read: likely lower LDL-C/-P

It's worth taking a moment to unpack this further...
3/ I state often that I'm "cautiously optimistic" with regard to higher LDL when #Keto if it is for metabolic reasons, but as always, I don't claim certainty. For those who want to be #Keto, but would be more comfortable with lower LDL, this could be a viable alternative...
4/ With all that said, I do want to be a good scientist and likewise concede I don't know long term effects of higher quantity M/PUFA oils when combined with more whole foods-based diet as this would be, but I'm inclined to assume the positive given the diet composition overall.
5/ The most important point I want to drive home is choice.

It's unfortunate to me that so many people feel the two best diets are a high carb plant-based or low carb animal-based diet -- which is why I wish more people were aware of #PlantBasedKeto as an option.
