When you first deprive your body of carbohydrates and replace them with protein and fat, the metabolism shifts to accommodate this. The first stage is known as lipolysis, and is the initial burning of fat to use as energy. This book will discuss ketosis. What is the problem with ketosis? Is the ketosis bad for the health?
- Types of Macros with proportions - Certain cultures do not know "contemporary" health conditions like obesity, heart disease, or diabetes. These nations' indigenous diets are based on indigenous resources and are frequently not what modern western cultures consider "healthy."
- Healthy vs. Toxic fats - Many decades ago, it was common to consume fatty meals because they were the most efficient energy source. But, unfortunately, by weight, fat contains more calories than any other nutrient.
- How to begin and what types of foods to avoid - The ketogenic diet is entirely focused on fat. Thus, on an eating plan in which up to 80% of calories come from fat — which induces ketosis or a state in which your body burns fat for energy instead of carbohydrates.
This book gives the reader an understanding
of the state of ketosis and how it is used even in the Atkins diet.
Ketosis is the heart of the cyclical ketogenic diet. Once your body
moves into ketosis, rapid fat loss will begin.
