We want to be healthier, and happier!    Life can be as sweet and savory while we are on a keto diet.  We know because we have been through the unspoken truth of sugar-withdrawal when we first embarked on this keto-diet lifestyle.   And starving ourselves from conventional castor sugars or hidden carbs shouldn't be all bitter and painful. 

So what is a Keto diet?

The keto or ketogenic diet is a very low carb, high fat diet that is somewhat like the Atkins, Paleo or other low carb diets.

It involves controlling one's daily carbohydrate intake to as low as 5% or 10%, while increasing  fats intake to as high as 70%, while the rest of the macros is filled with proteins.  This macro nutrients change serves to change the body's main source of fuel from glucose to ketones, while setting the body in a metabolic state called ketosis.   

There are a lot more medical literature that you can search on internet for the benefits of adopting a keto lifestyle.   It is important to seek professional medical advice prior to starting any form of diet.
