UNDERSTANDING THE KETO DIET (SIMPLIFIED FOR BEGINNERS)

The Keto Diet (short for ketogenic diet) is a low-carb, high-fat diet. The whole idea of keto is for you to get more of your calories from fat and protein and less from carbohydrates. This means drastically cutting back on most of the carbs that your body can easily absorb and digest, such as sugar, pastries, white bread, and soda. The reduction in carbs places your body into a metabolic state (ketosis).
