There are a lot of fad diets and methods that claim to help you lose weight fast or get healthier than ever. Learn more about what is good for your body and what is actually going to harm you. We’ll help you out with one such diet that actually works and will help you work steadily towards a healthier body.
Here you will learn all about the ketogenic diet. You might already have heard of it but may not know what it entails. We will tell you all you need to know about what it is and how it helps you. Stop following random fads that do not work or that harm your body.
As you read on, you will understand exactly why a lot of people vouch for this particular diet. You will soon be a follower as well.
Chapter 1: What Is The Ketogenic Diet?
The ketogenic or keto diet has gained quite a bit of popularity over that past few years. It is basically a diet that is quite low in carbohydrate and high in fats. The diet will help you lower blood sugar as well as insulin levels in the body. Your body’s metabolism will focus on fats instead of carbohydrates for providing the energy it needs.
The ketones produced in your liver will be used for providing energy to your body. The carbohydrate intake is reduced drastically and replaced with fat. This forces your body to go into a state of ketosis. In turn, your body becomes much more efficient at burning fat and using it for energy instead of depending on carbohydrates. The fat in the liver is also converted to ketones which supply the brain with energy.
We will explain how it works further. Eating a high carbohydrate diet will make your body produce more of glucose and insulin. Since glucose is the easiest molecule to break down, the body chooses to use it as a source of energy instead of any fat that you eat. This forces the fat to get stored and makes you gain weight. However, now that you reduce the intake of carbohydrates, your body is forced to undergo ketosis. It is a natural mechanism of the body wherein the fats in the liver are broken down to produce ketones. This metabolic state is what helps you use the stored fat in your body as the main source of energy now.
There are different variants of the keto diet that you can follow:
➢ The standard ketogenic diet has very low carbohydrates, moderate protein content and high amount of fat.
➢ The high protein ketogenic diet has a higher amount of proteins than the standard diet.
➢ The targeted ketogenic diet involves adding carbohydrates in your diet according to your workout schedule.
➢ The cyclical ketogenic diet has a cycle where you follow the ketogenic diet for a certain number of days and then add carbs for a couple of days before switching back.
