The
ketogenic diet is a very low-carb, high-fat diet that
shares many similarities with the Atkins and low-carb diets. It
involves drastically reducing carbohydrate intake and replacing it with fat.
This reduction in carbs puts your body into a metabolic state
called ketosis. When this happens, your body becomes incredibly efficient
at burning fat for energy. It also turns fat into ketones in the liver, which
can supply energy for the brain. Ketogenic diets can cause massive reductions
in blood sugar and insulin levels. This, along with the increased ketones, has
numerous health benefits.
