Re: Does Ketosis stop ?

when you progress up the rungs you will stop turning purple. this happens, according to the book, at about 50 net carbs. mileage may vary.

"The Atkins Nutritional Approach stimulates the process of lipolysis, a state I hope you are always in: burning your fat for energy. A secondary process of lipolysis is ketosis. Ketosis occurs when you are taking in a low level of carbohydrates form the food you eat, as you will during the Incudtion phoas ot Atkins."

so yes, ketosis will end but you will continue to burn fat for fuel providing you stay in lipolysis.
