The ketogenic diet is an eating plan which includes fat-rich and low-carbohydrate foods.For centuries, this diet has been used in the treatment of several medical conditions, such as diabetes, epilepsy, heart diseases, polycystic ovary syndrome, inflammations, and cancer.Moreover, the keto diet is also getting a lot of positive attention as an effective strategy for weight loss.This is because of the low-carb diet trend, which began back in the 1970s with the Atkins diet. The Atkins diet is a high-protein, low-carb diet. This diet became a huge commercial success, and it also brought low-carb dieting to a whole new level. Now, it seems like the keto diet is taking center stage.The principle behind the keto diet is that when you follow it, you're depriving your body of glucose, the primary energy source of all the body's cells. Usually, glucose comes from foods that contain carbohydrates while on the diet your body will produce an alternative type of fuel source known as ketones, which come from your body's stored fats. Unlike when you fast for long periods, following the keto diet carefully ensures that your ketone blood levels won't reach harmful levels, which, in turn, might result in ketoacidosis.
