What Keto means in a ketogenic diet, the keto comes from allowing the body to produce small molecules of fuel called ketones. This is an alternative source of fuel for the body, used when there is a shortage of blood sugar (glucose). If you eat moderate amounts protein and very few carbs (excess protein can also be converted into blood sugar), ketones are produced. The liver is producing fat ketones. Then these ketones serve throughout the body as a source of fuel, particularly for our mind. Brain is a hungry organ that consumes lot of energy on a daily basis and cannot run directly on fat. Only glucose... or ketones can be used. Your whole body switches its fuel supply on a ketogenic diet to run mostly on fat, burning 24-7 fat. The fat burning can increase dramatically when insulin levels become very low. Accessing your fat stores to burn them off becomes easier. This is superb if you're trying to lose weight, but there are numerous less clear advantages like a steady supply of energy and less hunger as well. This can help to keep you focused and alert. It enters a metabolic state called ketosis when the body produces ketones. Fasting-not eating anything-is the fastest way to get there, but no one can fast forever. On the other hand, a keto diet can be eaten indefinitely, resulting in ketosis as well. It has so many of the advantages of fasting without having to fast, including weight loss.
