If your looking to lose weight fast and come out of lockdown up to a stone lighter, the keto diet is a very low carbohydrate, higher-fat diet, which can help you to achieve your goal. While you eat far fewer carbohydrates on a keto diet, you maintain moderate protein consumption and may increase your intake of fat. The reduction in carb intake puts your body in a metabolic state called ketosis, where fat, from your diet and from your body, is burned for energy.
A Keto diet causes your body to produce small fuel molecules called keytones, this is an alternative fuel source for your body that can be used when glucose is in short supply. When you eat very few carbohydrates or very few calories, your liver produces ketones from fat, these ketones then serve as a fuel source throughout the body.
On a ketogenic diet, your entire body switches its fuel supply to run mostly on fat, burning fat 24-7. When insulin levels drop very low, fat burning can increase dramatically. It becomes easier to access your fat stores to burn them off.
