Ketogenic Diet - Less Fat, More Energy!!!
The ketogenic diet, also known as the Keto diet, is a low-carb, high-fat eating plan that aims to induce a metabolic state called ketosis.
In ketosis, the body begins producing energy by breaking down stored fat into molecules called ketones, rather than relying on glucose from carbohydrates.
The ketogenic diet is an eating method in which it is important to avoid almost all foods rich in carbohydrates, such as bread and rice, and increase your intake of foods rich in good fats, while maintaining moderate amounts of protein.
This type of diet is useful for losing weight because the body starts using its own fat as a source of energy instead of carbohydrates from food. The ketogenic diet is mainly indicated for the control and prevention of seizures or epilepsy, but it can also be recommended for the treatment of obesity, type 2 diabetes and, in some cases, cancer.
This is because cancer cells primarily consume carbohydrates.
It is important to always follow this diet under the supervision and guidance of a nutritionist because it is very restrictive and requires a complete nutritional assessment to know if it is safe to follow.
The ketogenic diet involves drastically reducing your carbohydrate intake and increasing your fat and protein intake. Typically, the macronutrient breakdown on a ketogenic diet is only 70 to 75% fat, 20 to 25% protein, and 5 to 10% carbohydrates compared to the total calories consumed. This causes the body to enter a state of ketosis, where fat becomes the main source of energy. To compensate for this decrease, it is recommended to increase your intake of foods rich in fat, such as avocado, coconut, seeds, olive oil, almonds and nuts.
It is also recommended that protein intake corresponds to 20% of the daily diet, eat meat, chicken and fish for lunch and dinner and include eggs and cheese in snacks.
