In recent years, the ketogenic diet has become one of the most studied weight loss strategies, according to a review appearing in the International Journal of Environment Research and Public Health.

Information available from many studies has demonstrated that this particular nutritional approach provides a solid biochemical and psychological basis. It also has the ability to induce weight loss, along with enhancing various cardiovascular risk factors.

What is a ketogenic diet?

A ketogenic diet, also known as a low carb high-fat diet, keto diet or a low carb diet is a diet that tends to be very low on carbs. In this diet, the body gets to produce ketones in your liver, which is then utilized as energy. Whenever you ingest anything that has a high carb value, the body starts to produce insulin and glucose.

• Insulin—produced by your body in order to process the glucose that is present in the bloodstream. This is achieved by taking it round your body.
• Glucose—considered to be the simplest molecule for the body to transform and utilize as energy. When this happens, it ends up being chosen over all the other available energy sources.

When glucose is utilized as the primary energy source, it means that the available fats will no longer be needed, and will, therefore, end up being stored.

When using a traditional high carb diet, your body relies on glucose as the primary energy source. When you lower your carb intake, the body gets induced into the ketosis state (this is a state initiated by your body to assist you to survive when the food intake has reduced).

What are keto recipes?

Keto is not a diet, but rather, it is considered as a way of life. It comprises the fundamental set of principles, which all low carb diets e.g. Paleo and Atkins are based on.

The recipe, according to the English dictionary is a set of detailed instructions guiding you on how to prepare certain dishes, including the list of ingredients that are needed.

Keto recipes are therefore instructions to guide you on how to prepare low carb diets e.g. the easy diet recipes for dinner, which make it possible for you to prepare a delicious meal while ensuring that you do not take in too many calories.

1.    Improved weight loss

In today’s society, there are people who still believe that the best way for one to lose weight is by taking a diet that is rich in carbohydrates e.g. fruit and veggies. Even though this could work for some, not all people are able to record success with this kind of diet.

In such a scenario, it is paramount to consider to try out a low carb diet. This diet will help eliminate the constant hunger pangs, while also enhancing the weight loss process. Additionally, you can also try out a diet that is rich in proteins and healthy fats.

2.    Reduced risk of getting type 2 diabetes

Ketogenic diets are very beneficial for a person suffering from type 2 diabetes or those who are pre-diabetic and would wish to reverse this condition. Recent studies have shown that low-carb diets, particularly those that limit the intake of processed grains and sugar can encourage improvements in people who are diabetic.
