Whats the keto diet

Hey Leah,

The keto diet is basically changing the bodies primary source of energy (which is carbs) and switching it to fats. You do that by having a diet comprising of mostly fats (65-75%) a moderate amount of protein (20-30%) and minimal carbs (5%).

Once in ketosis your body starts producing ketones and you're in a calorie deficit you shed the pounds along with numerous other benefits. I've been doing keto for about a month and I've been really enjoying it.

Hope this answers your question
