What is a ketogenic diet anyway and why should I consider following a ketogenic diet for weight loss? Will it really help me or is it just another diet with big claims that lacks scientific proof and real effectiveness?
In 2012 the National Institute Of Diabetes And Digestive And Kidney Diseases stated that 2 in 3 adults and 1 in 3 children are considered overweight or obese with a BMI of greater than 25 for adults in the US. Obesity carries an increase risk of high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, atherosclerosis as well as certain cancers.
In the past, the debate has been trying to single out the best nutritional intervention to support weight loss. Broadly speaking the main focus has been on a low fat diet however it has had minimal evidence to support it.
A Ketogenic, low carbohydrate diet has been scientifically proven to be effective at helping people loose weight efficiently (http://1.usa.gov/1UaAyH1). Furthermore It has concrete physiological and biochemical explanations to support it, further adding to its validity.
By reducing carbohydrate intake to less than 20g per day, the body shifts into a physiological state of ketosis. The body uses an alternative energy source, that being fat, since the normal source of energy, carbohydrate, is deplete. Consequently we quickly and easily start burning fat in a matter of weeks and enjoy the accompanying weight loss without having to feel hungry. Perhaps to your surprise you can enjoy eating delicious foods and enjoy large portions while following a ketogenic diet.
