6 Tips And Tricks For Keto Diet.
Checklist
The ketogenic diet is a revolutionary diet that promises stronger health and optimal
performance by eating a high fat, low carbohydrate diet.
Before you give this one a try, there are some important things to
keep in mind:
❏ PATIENCE.
Achieving a state of ketosis can take time. When a keto diet is followed
properly, it will likely take close to a week for your body to enter a state of
ketosis. Be diligent and patient with your progress. Look for your tongue to
start turning white when you’re about to enter ketosis.
❏ BE READY FOR THE KETO FLU.
The main switch will occur when you pass the keto flu, which is a state of
feeling sick and nauseous as your body and brain switches from using
glycogen or blood glucose to ketones as fuel. This process is normal and
will pass.
❏ CONSUME HEALTHY FATS.
Just because you’re on a high-fat diet doesn’t mean that you should eat a
bunch of high-fat fast food options. Keep your intake of fats to healthy and
natural fats like fish and plant sources.
❏ EAT CARBS RICH IN FIBER.
Mistakenly, some keto users toss away carbs altogether. Instead, consume
vegetables that contain a high amount of fiber, as this will lower your net
carb intake and strengthen your health.
❏ ABSTAIN FROM SUGAR.
This is the biggest component. The moment you go back onto sugar you’ll
experience yo-yo diet symptoms. If you’re committed to a keto diet, you
need to stay off sugar (as most people should anyway).
❏ MEAT AND POULTRY.
On a keto diet, the more natural the cut the better. Find a good butcher and
get the nice cuts of meat that have a good source of dietary fat and aren’t
combined into a burger or sausage with salt and other chemicals.
