Keto Diet for Beginners - CLARA SMYTH
Foreword
A‘Keto Diet’ which is short for Ketogenic Diet is not necessarily a novel concept but then not everyone is familiar with it or quite knowledgeable in it and this book will be providing an exegesis of the concept. It will be addressing its benefits, possible side effects, foods to consume and those to avoid when on Keto Diet, as well as how to get started amongst other things.
So, what exactly is a Ketogenic Diet?
Well, it is simply a very low-carb, high-fat diet, which involves a significant reduction of carbohydrate intake and a simultaneous increase of fat intake. This then puts the body in a metabolic state known as ‘Ketosis’ thus making the body more efficient at burning fats for energy while at the same time keeping you fit and healthy!
Chapter 1––––––––High-Fat Diet
The Keto
in a ketogenic diet is derived from a resultant ensuing process in which it causes the body to produce small fuel molecules known as ketones
. These serve as an alternative fuel source for the body, and it’s called into action whenever the glucose in the blood starts running low. The production of ketones is made possible when an individual consumes a low amount of carbs which are then instantly broken down into blood glucose. To be precise, fat serves as the raw material for the production of ketones and this process occurs in the liver. Subsequently, the ketones then become a source of energy for the body rather than glucose from carbohydrates thus reducing the need for carbohydrates. They are particularly useful in the brain which is a high-energy consuming organ in the body. And since it can’t run on fat directly, glucose and ketones are its sources of energy but ketones become the main source for an individual that’s on a ketogenic diet.
For an individual on a ketogenic diet, the whole body adapts by changing its fuel supply from carbohydrates to start running majorly on fat, thus making fat the new fuel for body metabolism. Consequently, the level of Insulin drops drastically while at the same time, there is a significant increase in the level of fat being consumed. This way, the fat storage in the body becomes easily accessible and usable for the body thus resulting in the desired loss of excess weight. Also, such an individual will feel less hungry and more satisfied while at the same time having a constant supply of energy that will keep him or her sharp, focused and efficient in any activity engaged in.
Traditionally, people tend to stay away from consuming fat because it contains a high level of calories but research has actually shown that ketogenic diets are way more effective at bringing about weight loss than diets that emphasize consumption of a low amount of fat. Going into more details, the ketogenic diet employs a very low-carb meal plan in which carbs are kept between 30 to 50 grams per day, with emphasis placed on the consumption of more fats and moderate quantities of protein.
Going back in time, the ketogenic diet actually first came to popular knowledge in the 1920s and was then used as a treatment for epilepsy and diabetes. But as time went on, people discovered that it helped with weight loss which led to more research on it and it has been proven to be effective. Basically, keto diet is simply a diet that is very low in carbs, moderate in proteins and high in fat. Here is why we accumulate weight in our body: when we consume carbohydrates, our body has to retain fluid so that the carbohydrates can be stored for the release of energy as at when due but once the consumption of carbs is reduced, the water weight as a result of the retention of fluid becomes negligible which is why the keto
