Quick And Easy Keto Recipes
Quick and easy keto recipes
A very low-carb, high-fat diet, the ketogenic diet (commonly known as keto diet) has many health benefits. The keto diet has several similarities with the low-carbs and Atkins diets. This diet involves drastically reducing the carbohydrate intake and replacing the same with fat. This reduction in the intake of carbs puts the body into a metabolic state, known as ketosis. When ketosis occurs, the body becomes incredibly efficient in burning fat for energy. It also turns the fats into ketones in the liver that can supply energy for the brain. Keto diets can cause enormous reductions in the insulin and the blood sugar levels.
This along with the increased number of ketones has several health benefits.
A common misconception is that you will be eating bland and boring food while following the keto diet. However, this is untrue. Below are some keto recipes you can try out at home.
