Community Guidelines
1. Read The FAQ Before Posting
Do your part. Check the FAQ and do a search of previous posts before posting to r/keto.
2. Stay on Topic / No Cheat Posts
Stay on topic. Off topic posts include: cheat posts, posts about other diets/others that are not eating keto, "farewell" posts/posts asking how to stop keto and resume a "normal" diet, Ranting, etc. Please keep these in the community support thread on the main page.
2.a: Why no cheat posts? In addition to being off-topic, cheat posts are specifically against the rules of this subreddit because they are negative, defeatist, and can serve as a trigger to those who are struggling.
3. Be respectful and accurate
Personal attacks, threats, inappropriate/sexual comments, thread crapping, fear mongering, intellectual dishonesty, posting misinformation, gatekeeping, excessively aggressive posting, and sexualizing/insulting/minimizing posts on progress pictures will not be allowed.
These sorts of posts may result in a permanent ban with no prior warning. Please see the Community Guidelines for a more detailed explanation of what types of comments are in violation of this rule.
3.a: Zero tolerance will be afforded to posts containing racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, or other identity-based slurs (i.e., insulting a person's ability/disability, looks, etc.).
4. No Low Effort Posts
Low effort posts will be removed. This includes: title-only posts, posts with under 200 characters including those that contain only links to articles or images/memes, posts asking questions that are explicitly answered in the FAQ, etc. Save your memes for r/ketocirclejerk
5. No Self Promotion / Spam
Self promotion includes: posts linking to or containing personal blogs/channels/websites/social media pages/watermarks, affiliate/referral links, or surveys for market research or educational purposes. If you are posting progress pictures with a watermark we ask that the watermark contain your Reddit username only.
6. No Giving or Soliciting Medical Advice
Reddit is not a replacement for your doctor. Do not solicit or offer medical advice on this subreddit.
This includes all questions relating to interactions with medication, and posts seeking or offering advice on the efficacy, and validity of taking doctor prescribed medications
** All post/comment removals, and bans are at the discretion of the mod team**
