A keto diet is an eating plan that focuses on foods that provide a lot of healthful fats, adequate amounts of protein, and very few carbohydrates. The goal is to get more calories from fat than from carbs.

The diet works by depleting the body of its sugar reserves. As a result, it will start to break down fat for energy. This results in the production of molecules called ketones that the body uses for fuel. When the body burns fats, it can also lead to weight loss.

So What Is A Ketogenic Diet?

Any highly nutritional meal course that is aimed at providing the body with an alternative source of energy through fats instead of the usual carbohydrates can be said to be a ketogenic meal. By default, glucose is the energy currency of the body but not until the body starts converting its fat stores into ketone bodies.

Keto diet is therefore, a high fat, moderate protein and very low carbohydrate diet. The idea is that eating fewer carbs with plenty fats puts your body into a metabolic state known as ketosis.

Here, in this state the body has less store of glycogen that usual hence the need for an alternative source of energy which ketone bodies happen to take care of.

It does so by converting your fat stores to ketones which in turn drastically depletes your fat reserves and keeps you in the best shape. Thankfully, this metabolic switch presents even more health benefits of the Keto Diet that we can have some fun with and explore further.
