The term “keto” – which refers to the high-fat, low-carb ketogenic diet – looks to be one that will stick around in the diet world. The diet claims you can eat as much fat as you want and you’ll never feel hungry again. And it will even improve your athletic ability.
But what precisely is the ketogenic diet and is the weight loss programme suited for you?
The ketogenic diet is founded on the idea that by starving the body of carbs – its main source of energy – you can compel the body to burn fat for fuel, maximising weight loss, as explained by the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health in their research.
