What is a ketogenic (keto) diet?

Keto Diet forces the body to burn fats rather than carbohydrates for energy. Most body cells prefer using blood sugar, which comes from carbohydrates, as the main source of energy in the body. But when there is not enough blood sugar, the body begins to divide stored fat into molecules called ketone bodies (the ketosis process).

Entering a ketosis is the goal of the Ketogenic Diet. When your body is in a ketosis state, the liver produces ketones that become the main energy source for the body until we start consuming carbohydrates again.

The Ketogenic diet is also referred to as Keto diet, Low Carb diet, and Low Carb High Fat (LCHF).

This means not eating High-carbohydrate foods like fruits, bread, pasta, grains, cookies, and ice cream. Also, you have to increase your intake of fatty foods, like oils, butter, and fatty meats. It's also important to not eat too much protein. You should only eat just enough protein so you don't lose muscles.
