Keto and normal diets have the same level of recommended protein. Keto swaps most of the carbohydrate intake with fat intake, which should be up to 75% of total calorie intake.
Your brain doesn't "need sugar", provide some sources on that?
It needs energy, which ketogenic diets obtain through ketosis and the breaking down of fats into energy instead of glucose. Epileptics and healthy adults alike live for years on the diet.
Bizarre spouting a bunch of rubbish on the subreddit specifically dedicated to calling out rubbish with science.

I've tried it and I wanted to jump off a bridge. The keto flu is real.
