Today we’re going to talk about whether or not consuming dietary fat on keto is necessary to stay in ketosis.

When you start keto, in the beginning, you’re going to adapt from sugar burning to fat burning. If your dietary fat is too low, you could have a rough time on the keto diet because you’ll be hungry all of the time. It’s the dietary fat in the meal that keeps you satisfied and allows you to fast for longer. It makes it easier to get into ketosis if you’re not so hungry.

Let’s say you’re on the ketogenic diet, but you no longer want to lose weight. In this situation, if you don’t consume enough fat, you’ll keep losing weight. When you achieve your weight loss goal, and you don’t want to lose any more weight, you have to add more fat to the diet.

It’s important to consume the right type of fats to be sure you’re getting enough fat-soluble vitamins as well as essential fatty acids. If you’re not doing the right type of fats, you could become deficient.

You always need to look at the ratio of protein to fat. On the keto diet, you want to make sure you get enough fat with the protein you consume. You never want to do low-fat proteins on the ketogenic diet. Low-fat high-protein foods like soy protein isolates are terrible on the liver and kidneys.

It’s also important to note that fat is not what gets someone into ketosis. The lowering of carbs is what gets the body into ketosis.
