Great KETO recipes that taste great and are absolutely easy to prepare! The Ketogenic Diet
The ketogenic diet is primarily a low-carbohydrate diet, with an adequate amount of protein and very high in fat. As such, you can use this diet when you want to lose weight. This diet has a tendency to force your body to burn fat, which is converted into fatty acids and ketone bodies.
Ketogenic diets are based primarily on ketosis, a state in which the body uses the ketones in fats for energy, rather than the glucose in carbohydrates for various body functions.
Some organs in the body prefer to use these ketones rather than glucose as fuel when they are available, such as the heart. However, it is important to note that not all ketone molecules can be converted and used for energy, such as acetone, which is excreted from the body through the breath and urine as waste.
In addition to helping reduce weight, these diets help lower triglyceride levels, which are caused by excessive carbohydrate intake, and are known risk factors for heart disease.
