The word keto is short for ketogenic. The Ketogenic diet focuses on consuming very low amounts of carbohydrates, high levels of fat, and adequate levels of protein. In simple terms, with the Keto diet, you replace carbohydrates with fat.
In case you haven't figured this out, carbohydrates are known as carbs, for short. You're probably wondering: The aim of a diet is to lose weight and not to gain more. How does that happen if I'm replacing carbs with fat? It is quite simple, really. When the levels of carbs in your body start to dwindle, your body goes into a metabolic state.
This metabolic state is referred to as ketosis. The ketosis state is one in which the body burns fat much more rapidly to convert it into energy. The fat is not only turned to energy but is also turned into ketones. Ketones located in the liver also boost energy.
In summary, Keto changes your body's mode of operation. Rather than converting your carbohydrates into energy, the fats you want to rid your body of are converted and burned off instead. The end result of a Keto diet is burned fat, boosted energy, reduced insulin levels, and reduced blood sugar.
