At its core, the keto diet is a high-fat, moderate-protein, and very low-carbohydrate eating plan. The primary goal of the keto diet is to shift your body's metabolism from relying on glucose (derived from carbohydrates) for energy to burning fat for fuel. This metabolic state is called ketosis.
Normally, the body breaks down carbohydrates into glucose, which is used for immediate energy. When carbohydrate intake is drastically reduced, the body enters a state where it starts to break down fats into molecules called ketones. These ketones serve as an alternative fuel source for the brain and muscles, essentially bypassing the need for glucose.
The Science Behind Ketosis
Ketosis occurs when the body depletes its glycogen stores (the storage form of glucose), which usually takes a few days of very low carbohydrate intake (typically below 20-50 grams of carbs per day). Once glycogen stores are depleted,…
