Diet Doc Shows Dieters How to Make the Keto Diet Work to Their Advantage

Oklahoma City, OK, Aug. 02, 2017 --

The ketogenic diet is a commonly used tool for rapid weight loss that works by inducing ketosis: a metabolic state where the body burns through its fat reserves for energy instead of carbohydrates. The keto diet also has benefits for those with elevated blood sugar levels, since carbohydrates and sugars are reduced if not removed entirely from the diet. In cases of obesity, quick weight loss on the keto diet can significant cut the risks of heart attacks and strokes in mere weeks or months. In spite of these benefits, Diet Doc warns that anyone looking to this diet as a long-term weight loss or wellness solution might want to tread carefully.

Keto dieters may not be getting the proper balance of nutrients overall, given that overconsumption of unhealthy fats and proteins is quite prevalent for many who attempt the diet. Choosing to opt for the South Beach Diet or low-carb option meant to many that large portions of protein was fine, just as long as there were little to no carbs. Ultimately, many failed to eat healthier and instead focused on losing quick inches, resulting in diets that were high in cholesterol and saturated fats. Keto dieters weren’t instructed to choose healthier fats such as olive oil, avocados and leaner proteins.

The addition of low-carb, processed meals to the market has also become problematic since several of these brands contain varying forms of added sugars and preservatives. Many low-carb products can actually sabotage weight loss goals due to its high sugar content. Furthermore, carbohydrates are not all bad. Carbohydrates are wonderful fuel sources for the body, which often contain important grains, vitamins, fiber and minerals. Carbs are also necessary for muscle growth, and Diet Doc recommends that you choose complex carbs rather than starchy substitutes. Legumes, oats, brown rice, fruit and other foods with complex carbs can actually aid in weight loss.

If done correctly, the keto diet can assist you in achieving your weight loss goals.
