    Ketogenic Fat Bombs:57 Sweet and Savory High Fat, Low Carb Recipes for Paleo, Keto and Low-Carb Diet - Rayna Zara

    A brief overview of the ketogenic diet

    What is a ketogenic diet?

    The ketogenic (or keto) diet is a true definition of a low carbohydrate and high-fat diet. It is recommended for those keen on losing weight or if you want to maintain favorable Ketone levels for the various benefits of being in ketosis. Studies show that most risk factors associated with lifestyle diseases such as Alzheimer’s, stroke, heart diseases, and diabetes among others can be managed or prevented by a keto diet.

    How does the Ketogenic diet work?

    Once you get started on a Keto diet, the body exhausts its glycogen stores. Since you not taking a significant amount of carbohydrates, the body begins to burn stored fat into ketones for energy. It switches to a metabolic state called Ketosis.

    If you consistently adhere to a keto diet, your body should enter ketosis within three to seven days in which state it will solely rely on fats for energy.  To boost your ketones and sustain high energy levels throughout the day it is important that you consume higher amounts of healthy fats. 

    How Much Should You Eat?

    The macronutrients distribution for a ketogenic diet is such that 65 to 75% of your calories come from fats, proteins should account for between 20 to 30%, and carbohydrates should provide only 5% of your daily energy intake.

    Benefits of the ketogenic diet

    The ketogenic diet is an effective way of optimizing your health by eating healthy foods that also increase vitality. The diet has the potential for promoting good health. Keto is recognized for healing properties, such as in cases of reversing inflammation, reducing effects of epilepsy, cancer treatment, heart diseases and many more.

    The Health Benefits of the Keto Diet in Managing or preventing Various Diseases

    Cancer

    Some recipes found in the Keto diet have ingredients that help manage small cancerous tumors or any other type of tumor.

    Heart diseases

    The Ketogenic diet raises the levels of good cholesterol (HDL) and lowers the levels of bad cholesterol (LDL). Since it is low in carbohydrates and sugars, it minimizes the risks for heart diseases that are associated with high sugar levels.

    Diabetes and Prediabetes

    These two diabetic conditions are brought about by changes in metabolism, a spike in sugar levels and overproduction of insulin. The Keto diet has shown positive effects in managing insulin resistance and reversing prediabetes and diabetes type 2.

    Alzheimer’s disease

    You can manage Alzheimer’s disease by slowing symptoms associated with it with a ketogenic diet.

    ––––––––

    Epilepsy

    Epilepsy patients have reported that seizures resulting from epilepsy become less prevalent when following a strict Ketogenic diet.

    Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS)

    When your ketone levels are high, your insulin levels reduce significantly which helps in balancing the production of hormones and thus makes you less prone PCOS.

    Brain Injuries

    A study on some animals found that Keto recipes could reduce concussion and help patients recovering from brain injuries.

    Acne

    Managed insulin levels and consuming less sugar or processed foods may help alleviate acne.

    Weight Loss

    Other studies also show that people on the ketosis diet lose weight proportionally to their body fat. They also experience a reduced appetite, which is essential in weight management.

    Testing for Ketosis

    A scientific and precise way of testing for ketosis is using ketone strips. A ketone strip measures the Ketone levels by analyzing urine samples at the onset of your keto diet and as you progress with the diet.  A high the level of ketones in your urine is an indicator that you have achieved ketosis.  You can buy the ketone strips over the counter at a pharmacy.

    Are there any Potential Risks of the Keto Diet?

    Keto Flu

    The keto flu mostly affects people with low levels of sodium and electrolytes common with those trying out the Ketogenic diet. Once you switch your diet to a full Keto diet, the chances are that you will have a deficiency in electrolytes, since most recipes do not contain sodium. This reduction also affects the insulin levels, which in the end affects sodium intake. Reducing your carbs lowers insulin production forcing regulation of insulin levels in the kidneys.

    Signs and symptoms of the Keto Flu

    Fatigue

    Headaches

    Cough

    Sniffles

    Irritability

    Nausea

    What you should note is that even from the symptoms, Keto flu is not like the flu you have experienced before therefore do not confuse it with the almost similar symptoms. Keto flu is not linked to any form of a
