Keto is not meant for long-term use. You will have one miserable life if you could pull that off but i doubt you could even if u tried. It works really well for cutting that last bit of stubborn fat when u trying to show your six pack.

There actually are people on long-term keto diets. It's actually used to help certain kinds of epilepsy, for example.

Maybe in extreme cases, read this docs blog, he has done keto for a long time but i noticed he has now changed up and only does it at certain times. Also he has a lot of stuff on keto. http://eatingacademy.com/personal/actually-eat-part-iii-circ...

As with anything, it depends. I'm also not suggesting that keto is harmless long-term, just that it's not inherently harmful. Several sections of the Wikipedia article are instructive: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ketogenic_diet
