Ketosis Ketogenic Diet For A Week And This Is What Happened

 The ketosis diet is perhaps one of the most controversial out there. Ketogenic Diet was discovered in 1921 by the endocrinologist Henry Rawle Geyelin and focuses on the intake of more foods rich in

protein and fat and the restriction of carbohydrates and sugars in order to generate a situation of ketosis - excess ketones in the blood - similar to that of fast. If you haven't heard of them, ketogenic diets are those low in carbohydrates and high in fat. This causes the body to go into "ketosis," causing fat stores to turn into ketones, which feed the muscles and brain instead of carbohydrates. The result is relatively rapid fat burning and weight loss compared to a traditional diet. The ketogenic diet focuses on the intake of more foods rich in protein and fat and the restriction of carbohydrates and sugars Controversy has always accompanied ketosis diets. In fact, there are numerous nutritionists and health professionals who have been warning for years of the possible health problems that these diets can lead to. However, despite the risks that following a ketogenic diet can entail, there are many people who have tried it and become fans of it. The nutrition experts at ' Men's Health ' seem to be from the latter group. "It is not as terrible as you think," they say. "Here's the proof," they add.

"People mistakenly think it is a meat diet, and that's not true," says Kristen Mancinelli, author of ' The Ketogenic Diet: The Scientifically Proven Approach to Fast, Healthy Weight Loss ' (' The Ketogenic Diet: The Scientifically Approach has proven to lose weight quickly and healthily '). The expert says that we have no idea, because " the more protein we eat, the less likely it is that we will enter the ketogenic state ." However, you should know that eating fat without rhyme or reason is not the way. 

If you are going to do the ketogenic diet, do it right. To do this, the experts of the aforementioned portal have created a weekly menu that, they say, works. You will lose weight without realizing it and you will not go hungry, thanks to the correct ratio between healthy fats, proteins, and carbohydrates. Loh Caneloh from Chile followed the ketosis diet and lost a lot of weight. In his blog, he says that the first two days he suffered leg pain and that he felt weak and dizzy. The first two days he suffered very severe pain in his legs, he felt them with little strength and became dizzy when standing up. Day by day he was weighed and by the fourth day he had already lost 2.5 kilos, which "I thought was great for the little time I had been doing it." The young woman followed the diet for 40 days, and her balance is positive. He lost six kilos. "I feel thinner, I have thinner arms, and the people who see me recognize my weight loss. The most important thing for me, and that I am grateful for this diet, is that I do not use to eat junk, bread, dough and I acquired the like eating fruits and vegetables. "
