On a keto diet, your entire body switches its fuel supply to run mostly on fat,
burning fat 24-7. When insulin levels become very low, fat burning can increase
dramatically. It becomes easier to
access your fat stores to burn them off. This is great if you’re
trying to lose weight, but there are also other less obvious benefits, such as
less hunger and a steady supply of energy. This may help keep you alert and
focused. When the body produces ketones, it enters a metabolic state called
ketosis. The fastest way to get there is by fasting – not eating
anything – but nobody can fast forever. A keto diet, on the other hand, can be
eaten indefinitely and also results in ketosis. It has many of the benefits of
fasting – including weight loss – without having to fast.
