Short chain fatty acids are different than what keto people eat on a keto diet.
Ruminant animals and gorilla ,none of them get into ketosis or hypoglycemia state, propionate readily converts into glucose, that is how these animals gluconeogenesis works. Human also converts this SCF to glucose but people on keto diet mostly eat medium and long chain fatty acids.
those animals burn lots of sugar.
-------
also carbohydrate aside, gorilla's protein intake must be higher than what keto and vegan people mention in their arguments.
