What is a Keto Diet ?

A keto diet consists of an eating plan that focuses on foods that provide a lot of proteins and healthy fats with minimal carbohydrates. It is a great step when moving towards a health and fitness goal. Keto diet or ketogenic diet focuses on the carb content of the food. The diet consists of minimal carb and hence it burns the fat very quickly. Keto comes from the word ‘Ketones’ which is alternate power fuel for the body in absence of blood sugar or glucose. Ketones are generated if carb content is low. Starch content breaks down into blood sugar, hence, no carb means no to blood sugar. After that, the body runs on just ketones. They are produced from fat in the liver after carbs run out.
