CHAPTER ONE - The Ketogenic Diet Primer
––––––––
What makes a diet ketogenic is its low content of carbohydrate, high fat concentration and moderate amount of protein. With a percentage ratio of 75% fat, 20% of protein and the remaining 5% carbohydrate, ketogenic diet is simply a diet low in carbohydrate, high in fat with moderate protein present in it. It is sometimes referred to as a low carbohydrate, high fat diet (LCHF), keto diet or simply as keto.
The ketogenic diet simply works by changing the body's source for energy fuel (which is naturally glucose when you feed on carbohydrate) to ketones, which is produced in the liver from the breakdown of fat. With the absence of carbohydrate, the body no longer has enough supply of glucose to fuel the body's mechanism, forcing it into a survival mode also known as the state of ketosis where it feeds off the excess fat accumulated in the body over time and new intakes into the body system for the purpose of energy fueling.
This process automatically helps a dieter to lose drastic weight, reduce high blood pressure as the work load on the blood vessels is reduced with the lack of production of insulin and also send more sustainable energy fuel to the brain leading to an increased brain performance.
Benefits of Ketogenic Diet
A ketoer; an individual who follows the ketogenic diet.
Appetite Control
The ideology most people have about dieting has to do with starving the body from food which shouldn't be the case as it is not with the ketogenic diet. Unlike many other diet, a ketoer actually enjoys a longer sustainability period, with fat which is naturally sustaining, the desire to eat every time is curbed leading to a controlled appetite.
Increase in High-Density Lipoprotein
One of the best ways to increase high-density lipoprotein; often referred to as the good cholesterol, is to eat fat. The higher the level of HDL in the body, the lower the risk of having a heart disease. This is one of the main reasons why the keto diet is recommended to patients to combat heart related diseases.
Decreased Blood Sugar & Insulin Levels
Since there is no glucose to be transported through the bloodstream, cutting down on carbohydrate helps to reduce the production of insulin, in turn reducing its presence in the body, keto diet also helps to cut down on blood sugar levels; it has been discovered that the sugar accumulated in the body system is usually gotten from the breakdown of carbohydrate and with the reduction in the consumption of carbohydrate, blood sugar stored in the body is reduced.
Lower Blood Pressure
Subsequent to the drop in production of insulin in the body, activities going on through the blood stream are limited leading to a drastic drop in the pressure levelled on the blood which helps to reduce the risk of contracting various heart diseases, kidney failure and stroke.
Significant Weight Loss
Ketogenic diet is popularly known as a first stop for drastic weight loss, with the absence of carbohydrate for the production of energy in the body, fat is broken down to replace it, leading to a significant drop in the weight of the dieters.
Keto-Friendly Foods to Eat
The ketogenic diet is not a meal restricting diet, rather it replaces unhealthy meals with health beneficial ones and thus not all foods are advisable for consumption while on the ketogenic diet.
Below is a comprehensive list of the food to avoid and those to take while on the ketogenic diet.
