Why You Should Be Doing A Ketogenic Diet

A Ketogenic diet is a way of eating where you consume high fat, moderate protein, and very low carb. The recommended number of carbohydrates one should consume a day on a ketogenic diet is under 30 grams. If you have a normal diet and decide to switch over to a ketogenic diet your body will go through a process were you enter a state called ketosis. At first entering ketosis may cause you to have a number of flu like symptoms commonly known as the "keto flu". This should pass after a few days though. While in this transition stage it is hugely important that you supplement certain vitamins that your body may be missing, these vitamins include Potassium, Sodium, and Magnesium.

Since i myself adapted this diet a while back i have noticed i can eat vastly over my daily caloric needs by a lot and still lose weight as long as i eat high fat and extremely low carb.
