A Quick Overview Of The Keto Diet
A keto diet is a low carbohydrate, high fat and moderate protein diet that causes the body to produce ketones in the liver which are then used as energy. When a person consumes high or normal carbohydrate, the body produces glucose and insulin which are easily converted and used by the body as energy. Glucose is the preferred or main energy source that is selected over any other source of energy, while insulin helps to process the glucose in the bloodstream. Here, fats are not needed but are merely stored. However, when the carb intake is lowered, the body enters a state of ketosis. During this state, the body produces ketones, which are the by-products of the broken down fats in the liver. The body initiates ketosis to help people with low food intake survive.
The main objective of a well-structured keto diet is to force the body into this metabolic state. This is accomplished by starving the body of carbohydrates and not calories. Our bodies adjust easily to what it is given. So, once it is devoid of carbohydrate and overloaded with fats, it will start to burn ketosis as its number one energy source for normal day to day functions. Thus, the principle of the ketogenic diet is to restrict carbohydrates to a certain level, in so doing, push the body into the metabolic state known as ketosis, where it will then break the fat molecules down into ketones to use as alternative energy source.
The key features of a ketogenic diet are low amount of dietary carbohydrates and a high amount of dietary fat. The ratio of this diet is 75% dietary fat, 20% proteins and only 5% carbohydrates or around 70% fats, 25% protein, and 5% carbohydrate. However, this ratio can be adjusted for different people. For the body to adjust to this diet and go into ketosis, nutrient intake should be between 25 to 30g of net carbs per day.
What are net carbs? Net carbs are your total dietary carbohydrates, minus dietary fiber and sugar alcohols. Fiber and sugar alcohol do not raise blood sugar because they cannot be broken into glucose. Consequently, most people do not count them towards their total carb count. For example, if 1 cup of broccoli contains 6g of carb and 2 g fiber. The net carb of 1 cup broccoli will be 4g (having subtracted the dietary fiber from the total carb).
Some individuals attain ketosis faster than others. This is also dependent on the individual’s body type, levels of activity and what is being eaten. Nevertheless, you can attain ketosis very fast when you exercise on an empty stomach, restrict carbohydrate intake to 20g or less in a day as well as when you consume lots of water. But for a normal person starting a ketogenic diet and eating 25-30g of net carbs daily, the total process of adaptation should take about 2 weeks.
With a ketogenic diet, there will be no need for you to worry about calories as the fats and proteins are filling and will keep you full for an extended period of time. However, if you exercise, you must be more vigilant as exercise comes with a greater calorie deficit that must be replenished.
Be sure to always consult your physician if you have reservations about starting a ketogenic diet. Nevertheless, you MUST see a physician if you come from a family with a history of diabetic or pre-existing conditions because higher intake of protein will definitely put a strain on the kidneys.
Changes In The Body
Your body is accustomed to the straightforward routine of breaking carbohydrates down and using them as energy. To accomplish this process, it has built up a resource of enzymes overtime and has only a handful of enzymes for handling fats. As a result, the body merely stores them.
Now, your body has to handle the increase in fats and the lack of glucose. To do this, it has to build up new enzyme supplies. Once your body is induced to a ketogenic state, it will use up the left over glucose it can find, then switch over to the glycogen in the muscles. This may lead to lack of energy and other minor ailments in the first week such as:
Headaches
Dizziness
Mental fogginess
Aggravation
Flu-like symptoms colloquially known as the Keto-Flu
These symptoms are normal and will disappear after a week. It is simply due to your electrolytes being flushed out since the ketosis has a diuretic effect. Ensure you drink lots of water and increase your sodium intake. This will help to replenish the electrolyte and help with water retention as well.
Once the body becomes adapted to keto, it will then be able to fully use the fats as its main source of energy. Athletes on this diet do not need
