Weight loss with Keto Diet

 


What's the Keto diet?

The keto diet is a low-carbohydrate and fat-rich eating plan that has been used for many centuries to treat certain medical conditions. The ketogenic diet was popularly used in the 19th century to control diabetes, and it was first introduced in 1920 as a treatment for epilepsy in children unable to receive medication. It has been used in closely held settings to treat cancer, diabetes, polycystic Ovarian Syndrome, and Alzheimer's disease.

This diet is becoming increasingly popular as a weight-loss strategy because of the low-carb diet craze. It all started in the 1970s with Atkins, a low-carbohydrate and high-protein diet that was a huge commercial success. Other low-carb diets, such as the Paleo and South Beach, are high in protein but moderately fat. On the other hand, the ketogenic diet is distinguished by its high-fat content (often 70% to 80%) but with only moderate amounts of protein.

How It Works

The ketogenic diet is based on the idea that the body will lose glucose, the main energy source. That is because the body cannot store carbohydrates. Instead, ketones, made from stored fat, will be produced. Because it can't store glucose, the brain needs 120g of glucose daily. Fasting is when there are very few carbohydrate intakes. The body pulls glucose from the liver first and then temporarily breaks down muscle to release glucose. After this process continues for three to four days, the blood levels of insulin, a hormone known, decrease, and the body starts using fat as its primary fuel. The liver makes ketone bodies out of fat. These ketone bodies can be used even when glucose is not present.

That is when ketone bodies build up in the blood. Normal ketosis is experienced by healthy people when they fast (e.g., while sleeping over) or engage in strenuous exercise. The ketogenic diet advocates that blood ketone levels should not exceed a safe level. That is known as ketoacidosis. Because the brain uses ketones as fuel, healthy people usually produce enough insulin to stop excess ketones from developing. The time is taken to reach ketosis, and the number of ketone bodies in the blood will vary from person to person. That is dependent on factors like body fat percentage and resting metabolic rate.
