Gluconeogenesis is apparently demand driven. In other words, glucose is created as needed, not because there is excess substrate (protein) available.

Like I say, I’m not the greatest at the specifics of Keto, but I do think it’s important that people know what the Keto experts recommend, and they are quite clear with regard to protein being something like 20-25% of calories.
