In this video Doctor O'Donovan explains the Ketogenic (Keto) diet for weight loss - a popular type of fasting that involves consuming a very low amount of carbohydrates and replacing them with fat to help your body burn fat for energy. Suggested health benefits by some include weight loss and lowering your risk for certain diseases; however in this video we review the science behind the keto diet and whether it really works. What are the basic principles of the ketogenic diet? The ketogenic diet is a very low carb, high fat diet that shares many similarities with the Atkins and low carb diets. It involves drastically reducing carbohydrate intake and replacing it with fat. This reduction in carbs puts your body into a metabolic state called ketosis. When this happens, your body becomes incredibly efficient at burning fat for energy. It also turns fat into ketones in the liver, which can supply energy for the brain. Ketogenic diets can cause significant reductions in blood sugar and insulin levels. This, along with the increased ketones, has some health benefits.
