Could you be more specific please?

AFAIK, USDA high-carb diet recommendation is 300g carbs/day, which should
make up 60% of your energy.

Meanwhile, anything above 100g will keep you from ketosis.

If 300g/60% is named high, how would you name 100g/20%?

Take outside, as the bartender said.

I have written plainly.

Depends on your activity level and basal metabolic rate.

That too depends on many things including your activity level, basal
metabolic rate, and protein intake.

"Low-carb" means that there are not enough carbohydrate being consumed
to sustain the Krebs cycle resulting in hyperketonemia. The exact
number of grams of carbohydrates will vary from person to person, meal
to meal, and time to time.

Any time I hear someone saying that they are singling out carbohydrates
to be reduced, what they are doing is likely "low-carb" if there is
weight-loss especially if there is loss of appetite. When I smell their
"ketone breath," I then *know* that they are low-carbing.

Not enough plainly for me to understand. Forgive me not being able to.

Protein? AFAIK protein intake is more or less neutral w.r.t. ketosis.

That is your definition. Standard name for this situation is "ketogenic" (or
"very-low-carb", if you insist).

> "ketone breath," I then *know* that they are low-carbing.

Sure, you know everything, that is well known.

It is not.

Asked and answered (shrug).

It seems you have me confused with Whom I serve.

All the glory belongs to my heavenly Father, Whom I love with all my
heart, soul, mind, and strength :-)
