The ketogenic diet is all about feeling your absolute best.

When first transitioning to the diet, it was definitely a learning process. I wanted to be sure that I would be able to enjoy my favorite meals, so I had to teach myself a completely new style of cooking. Over time, I learned what works and what doesn’t.

On the ketogenic diet, carbohydrates are limited, and the focus is transitioning your body from being fueled by glucose to being fueled by ketones, which is done by significantly lessening carb intake and increase the consumption of dietary fat. You see, the body typically uses carbs (in the form of glucose) for energy. When carb consumption is restricted and there isn’t any glucose to run off of, the body turns to fat and instead uses that as its source of energy, thereby producing ketones and putting your body into a state of ketosis. With the ketogenic diet, achieving and maintaining a state of ketosis is important if you want to reap the amazing benefits of this way of eating.
