Introduction

H i there!

First I would like to begin by thanking you for downloading this book.

In this book not only do I help you understand what the Ketogenic diet is all about but also share some recipes for the various meals you will be consuming through the day. As the Ketogenic diet consists of consuming a large amount of fats, proteins and uses a low amount of carbs, it works wonders if you have been trying your best to achieve that fabulous body you have always wished to achieve.

However, do remember, while diets work in a simple and effective manner, it is all up to you. That is, it all depends on how you maintain the balance and not just eat healthy but also tries to indulge in a little physical activity at least three to four times a week. If you do not lead a sedentary life or your work does not involve too much of physical activity, monitor the intake of calories per day. If you lead a life which is heavy in physical activity, you will need to accordingly adjust the ratio of fat to protein to carbs accordingly. As per the Keto diet, your daily diet should include a higher amount of fat, a moderate amount of protein and a low percentage of carbs. While several people claim that diets are not the best way forward to losing weight, it is only because they tried and failed. The reason for them failing is not the diet but infact it is because they dont begin the diet on the right note or are unable to maintain the balance in what they eat or drink and hence the diet they should have been on turns into a disaster for them!

If you eat healthy and just eat the amount of food as prescribed, there will be no stopping you in successfully maintaining the Keto diet. You will not only feel lighter but also happy!

Thanks again for downloading this book; I do hope you enjoy the recipes Ive shared!

Chapter 1: Understanding Ketosis and the Ketogenic Diet

What is Ketosis?

B efore we begin a diet it is always best to first understand what the diet is all about. In this chapter, I will explain what Ketosis is and how following this diet could aid you in your weight loss goal.

Ketones exist in every body and are little fragments of fat which are produced by the liver when the bodys food intake is low. Ketosis is the process which triggers an alarm of sorts to the body cells to burn the fat produced or the ketones in a timely manner. In other words, when your diet is less of carbs, the glycogen levels in your body fall and you enter the ketosis stage. When this happens, the ketones prevent the proteins stored in the muscles from being used and instead utilize energy from all the fat stored in your body.

Ketosis is a normal metabolic process that happens in your body and it is essential that you stick to the regime and avoid indulging in that just one cheat meal. If you do skip a certain part of the regime to indulge in a cheat meal, you will lose all the progress you have earned. It will also take your body a few days before ketosis begins all over again in your body. You should ensure that your cheats are zero!

In usual circumstances, the body uses glucose as the main form of energy which allows the body to function. Glucose is obtained from carbs which we consume in the form of starchy food items as well as items which contain sugar. Most of the common food items which are high in carbs are bread, pasta etc which the body then breaks down into sugar. This sugar is either used by the body or is stored in our muscles and is called glucose.

Some people follow the Ketogenic diet also popularly known as the Low Carb Diet. The aim of this diet as I had explained above is to burn fat and use the same for energy instead of relying on carbs.
