Keto diet path to health. Алексей Сабадырь

ing

      The ketogenic diet is based on a simple principle: reduce your carbohydrate intake and replace it with healthy fats and moderate protein. This puts the body into a state called ketosis, where it burns fat for fuel instead of relying on carbohydrates. This metabolic shift not only helps you lose weight, but also brings a variety of health benefits, from improved mental clarity to stabilized energy levels throughout the day.

      Benefits of going keto

      The benefits of a ketogenic lifestyle go far beyond weight management. Many people believe that following the keto diet results in:

      Improved weight loss

      Using fat stores for energy, the body becomes a skilled fat-burning machine, which promotes weight loss and reduction of body fat.

      Increased energy and mental clarity

      Stable blood sugar levels and the use of ketones as a fuel source often lead to increased mental focus and sustained energy levels throughout the day.

      Improved blood sugar regulation

      For people with insulin resistance or diabetes, the keto diet may help regulate blood sugar levels better.

      Best Cholesterol Profiles

      Contrary to some beliefs, keto can have a positive effect on cholesterol levels by increasing HDL (“good” cholesterol) while decreasing triglyceride levels.
