Introduction

TODAY IS A BEGINNING of a better and healthier you! This paved way for further research into the Keto Diet. These studies found that a low-carb, high-fat diet was not only able to help minimize seizures for patients with epilepsy, but also help individuals to lose weight, minimize abdominal fat, increase HDL and LDL levels (good cholesterol), decrease blood sugar levels, prevent cancer and cognitive decline. So in short, this diet that I’m about to introduce to you will not only help you burn fat and lose weight, but it can also deliver other amazing benefits for your overall health!

Right now, maybe you’re feeling awful about your weight and physical appearance, but let me tell you this: the moment that you decided that you need to do something about your dilemma (like downloading this book), means you’re already halfway to losing weight, improving your health, and becoming a better version of you.

That burning sensation in your chest after climbing up two flights of stairs, jeans that don’t fit, and friends that tell you I think you’re getting chubby,— are you getting a bit tired of these?  Are you in dire need of losing those excess pounds you’ve carried around since Thanksgiving three years ago?

But before I introduce this effective and revolutionary diet that will help solve your problems, let’s straighten a few things up. Let me ask you a few fundamental questions that may just shift your perspective:

What is the real reason why you want to shed the fat and lose weight? Is it to boost your confidence and have the perfect bikini body? Or is it so that you can run that marathon you have always wanted to? 

Overweight and obesity as an abnormal or extreme fat accumulation that may harm health defines The World Health Organization (WHO). Experts have recognized that the primary cause of these conditions is a deadly combination of an unhealthy diet, plus a sedentary lifestyle. 

You see, there’s nothing wrong with wanting to lose weight in order to become more attractive, but should this be your main focus? This may be your initial goal, but after committing to the Ketogenic lifestyle you will soon realize that the benefits are far more extensive than just mere weight loss.  Mood stabilization, hormone regulation, slowed ageing, blood sugar balance, memory and cognitive improvement...these are just a few of the profound changes your body will embrace should you choose to follow the advice that is contained in the pages to follow.

So, besides achieving a desirable body, your main purpose will rapidly shift to becoming a healthy, energetic person, avoiding the severe complications of being overweight or obese.

It is quite disturbing to note that over 1.9 billion adults all over the world are suffering these conditions (WHO, 2014); 42 million children below 5 years old are also either obese or overweight.

Now you might be asking: How does this affect me? 

The simplest answer is invariably the correct one, and you have most likely heard it a thousand times before...

Well, carrying extra pounds around your mid-section puts you at great risk of developing chronic illnesses such as stroke, heart disease, type 2 diabetes, osteoarthritis, breast cancer and colon cancer, just to name a few. Although these complications may alarm you, the good news is that obesity can be reversed and the complications that go with it are preventable.

Maybe you’ve already tried some of the fad diets that are popular right now, but they do not seem to work. Or you have also tried some of the fasting and starvation diets out there that promise instant results, but you just can’t seem to keep up with the idea of skipping meals. Well, maybe it’s time that you try a diet that is scientifically proven to help you burn fat, lose weight, and provide you much, much more - the Ketogenic Diet.

A balanced diet mixed with a healthy dose of exercise. The first part of the statement is where most individuals slip up. The so called balance diet is never fully explained and always shrouded in mystery and confusion.

You may think that the Keto Diet is a fairly new food regimen, yet another fad, but on the contrary, this diet has already become popular in the 1940’s when it was used to help minimize seizures of children with epilepsy.

It has since lost its place under the spotlight when anticonvulsant drugs became more widely available to the market. It only gained popularity again in the 1990’s, when the son of a famous Hollywood director used the diet to help him reduce his epileptic episodes, with remarkable results. 

Also called as the Keto Diet, this food program is a low-carb high-fat diet that forces the body to enter into a different metabolic state where fat is burned as fuel for energy instead of glucose (I will discuss this in more detail at a later stage in the book).

Chapter 1: General Overview of Keto Diet

The Background

CHANGING THE WAY THAT you gain your energy in this manner allows for you to eat through your fat reserves and lose weight, while also staying healthy. Eating a ketogenic diet is a simple way to lose weight quickly, but stay healthy in doing so. It allows you to literally consume your fat stores for energy, and replenish your body through eating a healthy fat and nutrient rich diet that will keep you going.  It is called the keto diet, or the ketogenic diet is coined based on the term ketosis which is the state your metabolism enters when you eat this diet. Ketosis means that your body is no longer consuming carbohydrates, and is instead consuming fats. This means that you will be gaining energy from fats and your fat reserves, instead of from carbohydrates and sugar forms.

The Operational Principle

THERE ARE MANY CARBOHYDRATE-rich foods that you will not be able to eat when you are on the ketogenic diet. You will learn more about exactly what you can and cannot eat too, and will also get a sample diet for a single day in the life of the ketogenic diet. You will quickly learn that it is effortless to choose meal options that are carbohydrate-free. At first, it may seem difficult. We live in a world that
