What is the Ketogenic diet?

The keto diet is a very low-carb and higher-fat diet which allows you to shed weight quickly. When you decrease your carbohydrate intake and increase your fat intake, your body goes into a metabolic state called ketosis. In this state, the body burns fats instead of carbs for energy. On a ketogenic diet, your entire body switches its fuel supply to run mostly on fat, burning fat 24-7. When insulin levels become very low, fat burning can increase dramatically. It becomes easier to access your fat stores to burn them off. This is why the ketogenic diet is perfect to help you lose weight. Hopefully, these easy keto recipes will help you achieve the perfect keto diet.
