By Patricia Ward

The keto diet is the shortened term for ketogenic diet and it is basically a high-fat and low-carb diet that helps you lose weight, thereby reaping various health benefits. Essentially, the diet drastically restricts your carb intake and fat intake is increased; this then, pushes your body to go into a state of ketosis. We will tackle ketosis in a bit.The body actually uses glucose from carbs to fuel metabolic pathways� meaning various bodily functions like digestion, breathing�essentially anything that needs energy. Even when you are resting, the body needs fuel or energy for you to continue leaving. If you think about it, when have you ever stopped breathing, or your heart stopped breathing or your liver from cleansing the body or your kidneys from filtering blood? Not unless, you�re dead that�s the only time the body doesn�t need energy. So, glucose is the primary pathway when it comes to sourcing the body�s energy.
