Keto for Weight Loss
Are you looking to start a ketogenic diet for weight loss? Ketosis can be a great way to lose weight, but it’s important that you do it the right way. In this blog, we’ll explore ketosis further and how it works for weight loss. Keep reading to learn more.
What is ketosis?
The keto diet is similar to other low-carb plans in that it reduces your carbohydrate intake and substitutes carbs for fats. This dietary change will put you into a state known as "ketosis," which triggers metabolic changes responsible for weight loss.
How does ketosis impact weight loss?
In ketosis, your body becomes an efficient machine at burning fat. This not only has major health benefits but also helps keep you feeling sustained throughout the day with less hunger pains.
Ketogenic diets are recognised as a superior approach to other weight-loss diets. They are considered one of the most effective ways to lose weight and lower your risk for diseases.
Keto Smart’s philosophy is that eating a ketogenic diet is not about a short-lived effort to lose weight in the way that many traditional diets are. It’s about eating foods that will see you burning fat more quickly. It's a way of life, and a lifestyle choice that is sustainable.
Do I have to count calories?
No! Keto diets are a great way to lose weight without counting calories. The high protein and fat content leave you feeling fuller for longer, so there's no need for calorie tracking throughout the day. However, it is important to remember that you can’t eat unlimited calories each day if you are aiming to lose weight. Working with Tony at Keto Smart, he will help you to understand more about the foods you are eating to ensure you’re able to meet you weight loss goals.
Other Health Benefits of Keto
Ketogenic diets have been shown to offer a wide range of health benefits including (but certainly not limited to!) improvements in mental clarity, increased energy levels and lower blood sugar values. It has also been proven to treat neurological diseases like epilepsy and reduce or slow the symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease.
