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)
