Source draxe.com

Ketogenic diet, popularly known as Keto Diet is a diet where one’s consumption of carbohydrates is replaced with healthy fats and proteins, which is what made it so popular, because allowance of fat intake meant that anyone who would opt for a Keto diet could consume creams, cheese, milk and other dairy and fat products, making it almost unbelievable.

It is a diet recommended and followed for weight loss, better bodily performance and functioning.

To explain to you in detail, a ketogenic diet recommends the intake of 80 percent fats and less to no carbohydrates. Food items like fruits, beans, alcohol, grains and sugar-free diet foods are not allowed in a ketogenic diet. Instead, meals in ketogenic diets should comprise of one or more of the following food items - meat, butter, eggs, cream, nuts and cheese, avocado oil and low carb vegetables - basically all fats.

With allowing fat intake as a replacement to carbohydrates, a ketogenic diet aims to change the way our body converts food into energy. Once the carbohydrate intake by the body is reduced, it puts our body into a metabolic state, known as ketosis. In a state of ketosis, our body burns fat effectively and at an even faster rate.

In this article, we have listed down some gift options which are suited for people on a Keto Diet, along with other information on the diet.

  • A keto diet comes with a rocky start, wherein some people might experience discomfort, nausea, headaches and fatigue, commonly known as the keto-flu.
  • It has been found that even though the Keto Diet initially shows a noticeable loss of weight, but such weight loss is not always sustainable in the long run.
