The Ketogenic diet or ”keto diet” is an eating plan that focuses on eating fewer carbohydrates and more healthy fats. Simply put, it’s a very low-carb, high-fat diet that forces your body into using another source of energy. The reduction of carbs puts the body into a state called ketosis, where fats are burned for energy.
This diet has plenty of benefits, such as weight loss, improved performance, losing stubborn fat, lower blood sugar, and insulin levels, as proven in over 50 scientific studies. Below you will find a variety of keto recipes you’ll fall in love with.
