Keto Diet Doubles the Risk of Heart Attack, Stroke: Study​

Written by Lisa O’Mary

March 6, 2023 – Keto diets can more than double the risk of serious heart problems, a new study shows.

People who ate foods high in fat and low in carbohydrates were more likely to have higher cholesterol and experience heart attacks or strokes, compared to people who followed a standard diet. Keto diets were also associated with a doubled risk of needing procedures to open up clogged arteries.

“Our study found that regular consumption of a self-reported diet low in carbohydrates and high in fat was associated with increased levels of LDL cholesterol — or ‘bad’ cholesterol — and a higher risk of heart disease,” researcher Iulia Iatan, MD, PhD, says in a statement. “To our knowledge, our study is one of the first to examine the association between this type of dietary pattern and cardiovascular outcomes.”
