We will now take each lesson one by one and explore the secrets of a keto diet, while also briefly examining some of the myths that surround this low-carb approach to eating.

One of the most exciting nutrition stories to hit the scene in recent years has been that of the ketogenic diet. The ketogenic diet is more than just a weight-loss strategy—it’s also a way to combat insulin resistance. This diet improves your mood and mental health, and even boosts your energy levels.

If you’re not familiar with the ketogenic diet, it’s a high-fat, low-carbohydrate diet that causes your body to burn fat as its primary source of fuel instead of carbs. 

This process produces ketones, which are molecules that can be used by cells as an alternative fuel source. This way of eating has put healthy fats back on the map, and there’s fascinating science to back up its effectiveness. 

When you follow a keto diet, your body no longer focuses on breaking carbs down into glucose and then into energy that fuels your body. Many people assume that once you enter the ketosis state, your body receives the energy stored in your fat cells, but your brain doesn’t. 

However, with the keto diet, that’s just not the case! When you’re not eating so many carbs, there’s no need for extra insulin to break it down. Therefore your risk of developing insulin resistance lowers. You can kiss your sugar spikes or sudden drops in glucose levels goodbye. (Which means you won’t be that hungry anymore)

The key to a successful keto regime is simply to avoid carbs, and stack on proteins, and healthy fats. Wherein you also maintain an optimum exercise level. If you want to set yourself up for success, give meal planning a try. 

Planning meals ahead of time are the key to success when it comes to a ketogenic diet. You can’t just eat whatever you want and expect your body to burn fat. The most important thing is planning ahead so that you don’t end up eating many carbs. 

But what does that mean exactly? It means buying enough food for the week and preparing it so that it’s ready to eat when you need it most: when you’re hungry! We all know too well that not having healthy options on hand is what messes up diets all the time.

Avoid this scenario by shopping in bulk for proteins and healthy fats, and eliminating temptations. You already know that carbs are not part of a keto diet, so the best way to avoid them is by not buying them overall.  

Stack on animal proteins like meat and seafood. Foods rich in good fats like yogurt and kefir, olive oil, or avocado, and green, leafy veggies. Limit your intake of tomatoes and onions. Brazil nuts and almonds are also great options for your keto regime. Make sure to read labels before buying, so that you don’t get products with hidden sugars or carbs.

Many people find that keto can be difficult to adhere to because it requires strict compliance with a high-fat diet. That’s where cyclical keto comes in! Cyclical keto allows you to eat about 70% fat, 20% protein, and 10% carbs 5 days per week. Then on 2 days each week, you’ll ingest carbs throughout the day. 

This type of pattern helps prevent insulin resistance in your body and keep your metabolism running smoothly so that you can burn fat efficiently throughout the week without feeling hungry all the time! As a bonus, you also get to enjoy the nutrients carbs may bring in.

Intermittent fasting is simply a pattern of eating in which you restrict your eating windows. Where you eat within a certain time period each day. If you choose to do this, we recommend restricting your eating window to no more than 16 hours per day. 

This means that your “eating window” would be from noon until 8 pm. For example, from 8 p.m. until noon the next day. Or any other variation that works for you and suits your schedule.

Pairing cyclical keto with intermittent fasting will make you alternate between periods on a low-carbohydrate diet with periods. In which you eat more carbohydrates or carbs-heavy foods (such as whole grains). All within a set time frame so that you don’t overdo it and also teach your body how to control hunger.
