The ketogenic diet, often shortened to "keto," is a high-fat, very low-carbohydrate diet.
Here's the basic idea:

Here are some weight loss transformations achieved through vigorous training and keto diet

Potential Benefits (Note: Research is ongoing):
Here's the basic idea:
- Drastic Carb Reduction:By severely limiting carbohydrate intake, the body shifts its primary fuel source from glucose (derived from carbs) to ketones. Ketones are produced when the liver breaks down fat.
- Metabolic State of Ketosis:This metabolic state, known as ketosis, can offer various potential benefits.

- Weight Loss:Ketosis can promote weight loss by increasing feelings of fullness and reducing appetite.
- Improved Blood Sugar Control:May be beneficial for people with type 2 diabetes by improving insulin sensitivity.
- Increased Energy Levels:Some people report increased energy and mental clarity on the keto diet.
- Other Potential Benefits:Some studies suggest potential benefits for certain neurological conditions, such as epilepsy.
