What is a Ketogenic diet ?

A Ketogenic diet consists of a ‘LCHF’ low carb high fat approach diet.
Using and mastering this diet is a great tool for weight loss. According to an increased number of studies results have found reduced risk factors of diabetes, heart diseases, stroke, epilepsy, and more.
The aim of the diet is allowing your body to enter a metabolic state called ketosis.
When this occurs your body will be using ketones as its primary source of energy instead of glucose which are found in carbohydrates, bare in mind that Ketone’s are derived from fat and are a better quality source of energy than glucose from carbs. Entering a state of ketosis will usually take between 3 to 7 days depending on your body.
Once you have reached a state of ketosis you will burn fat from both your food and body for energy instead of using carbohydrate glucose.

This diet method is suitable for all, from highly active strength training athletes such as bodybuilders with a high fat high protein approach abling muscle building whilst reducing body fat and achieving a shredded look to their physique. It is also suited for less active people looking to loose weight with little activity, although integrating physical exercise is key to burning more calories throughout the day.

Each gram of fat contains around 9 calories, in comparison to 4 calories per gram of protein and carbohydrates making it a more efficient source of energy.
The keto diet promotes eating fresh, whole foods like meat, fish, veggies, healthy fats and oils as well as greatly reducing processed foods.
It can be a long term sustainable and enjoyable eating plan.
