Why the Low-Carb Diet Is a Thing In an article published by Sports Illustrated, experts discuss how, by lowering his carb intake, LeBron is training his body for a process called ketosis, or using his fat stores for fuel instead of glycogen (a.k.a. carbs that have turned into sugar to be stored for energy you need later).
Overall, Bazilian says she generally agrees that ketosis could help an elite athlete like LeBron with his energy levels, but it would require a lot of medical supervision. What's more, says Bazilian, the method is not good for endurance athletes like marathon runners, who require long-term use of carbs and fat to perform their best. Plus, there isn't much scientific research to back up claims that ketosis is effective. For all those reasons, it’s likely a bad idea for someone who is not a closely monitored professional athlete, she says
