The Ketogenic Diet (Keto Diet) has become a Silicon Valley fixation and diet of the day, with celebrities like Kim Kardashian and Halle Berry claiming it keeps them fit and healthy. By eliminating most carbs (even fruit!) and embracing fat, you can lose weight without feeling hungry! This is because a decrease in carbs causes your body to enter a metabolic state known as ketosis. Your body becomes very efficient at burning fat for energy when this happens. It also causes fat to be converted into ketones in the liver, which can be used to supply the brain with energy. The Keto Diet also significantly lowers blood sugar and insulin levels. This, combined with increased ketones, offers several health benefits.
