bodyboss 2What is the Ketogenic Diet?
The ketogenic diet is a low-carb, high-fat diet. It puts your body
in a metabolic state called ketosis where the body uses fat as
a primary fuel source (instead of carbohydrates). When this
happens, your body becomes incredibly efficient at burning fat
for energy. It also turns fat into ketones in the liver, which can
supply energy for the brain.
Ketogenic diets can cause massive reductions in blood sugar
and insulin levels. This, along with the increased ketones, has
numerous health benefits.
What are the key benefits of Keto?
yy Significant Weight Loss
Reduction in Appetite
BB More Balanced Blood Sugar Levels
Higher Energy and Focus
bodybossHow do you get to Ketosis?
The state of ketosis is achieved through drastic reduction of your
carbohydrate intake and replacing it with fat. When you're eating
strictly keto-friendly foods, your body can enter a state of ketosis
in one to three days.
Base the majority of your diet on foods such as meat, fish, eggs,
butter, nuts, healthy oils, avocados and plenty of low-carb
veggies. Avoid carb-based foods like grains, sugars, legumes,
rice, potatoes, candy, juice and even most fruits
Great snacks for a keto diet include pieces of meat, cheese, olives,
boiled eggs, nuts and dark chocolate,

bodyboss 5What to Expect
Weight Loss and Suppressed Appetite
A ketogenic diet is an effective way to lose weight and lower
risk factors for disease. In many cases the diet is so filling and
appetite suppressing that you can lose weight even without
counting calories or tracking your food intake.
Keto Flu
While your body adapts to the ketogenic diet, you may
experience a bunch of symptoms often referred to as the keto flu.
It is usually over within a few days. Keto flu includes poor energy
and mental function, increased hunger, sleep issues, nausea,
digestive discomfort and decreased exercise performance.
Increased Focus & Energy
When you get into ketosis, a large part of the brain starts burning
ketones instead of glucose. Ketones are an extremely potent fuel
source for your brain and therefore, long-term ketogenic dieters
often report increased clarity and improved brain function.
Digestive Issues
You might experience digestive issues, such as constipation or
diarrhea, when you first switch to a ketogenic diet. Try to be
mindful of different foods that may be causing digestive issues.
Also, make sure to eat plenty of healthy low-carb veggies, which
are low in carbs but still contain plenty of fiber.
bodyboss 6Tips for Success
Coconut Oil Eating coconut oil can help you get into
ketosis as coconut oil contains fats called medium-chain
triglycerides (MCTS)
VY Exercise Being more active can help you get into ketosis
Intermittent Fasting Another way to get into ketosis is to go
without eating for several hours. In fact, many people go
into mild ketosis between dinner and breakfast.
Some Risks You Should Know
If you have type 2 diabetes, talk to your doctor before attempting
a ketogenic diet. They may recommend a different weight-loss
diet for you, like a reduced-calorie diet. Those with epilepsy
should also consult their doctor before using this as part of their
treatment plan.
No carbs... ever?
It is important to significantly reduce your carb intake initially.
After the first 2-3 months, you can eat carbs on special occasions
— just return to the diet immediately after.
Protein Intake
Protein should be moderate, as a very high intake can spike
insulin levels and lower ketones. Around 35% of total calorie intake
is probably the upper limit.
