That's actually what makes the keto/low-carb opposition to DiRECT so weird. Yes most of them almost certainly were in ketosis due to the low calorie intake, which may have helped their weight loss
Indeed. Anecdotes abound, but governments don't fund based on word of mouth (mostly), they fund based on science. And currently, Virta hasn't demonstrated causality in the way that DiRECT has

No they don't where's the science behind the Eatwell Guide please? Ancel Keys? In which case it should have been rejected half a century ago? DiRECT hasn't proven the causality of T2 its has shown it can be reversed as has ViRTA using very similar criteria..

Eh, I said mostly, I'm not going to litigate every decision any government has made. DiRECT has proven causal efficacy far more robustly than Virta, that's the whole point
