## Keto Diet: What is it and how does it work?

The keto diet is a low-carbohydrate, high-fat diet that aims to stimulate the body to burn fat to produce energy instead of sugars. The keto diet depends on reducing carbohydrate intake to less than 50 grams per day, and significantly increasing fat intake, in addition to eating moderate amounts of protein.

### Benefits of the keto diet

- Weight loss: The keto diet is effective in losing weight, as reducing carbohydrate intake leads to reducing the amount of calories the body receives, which leads to burning fat faster.

- Improving the energy level: The keto diet increases the energy level in the body, as the body converts the fat stored in the body into energy that the body uses to carry out daily activities.

- Improving cholesterol levels: The keto diet works to improve cholesterol levels in the body, as reducing carbohydrate intake leads to reducing the level of fats in the blood, which leads to improving cholesterol levels.

### Disadvantages of the keto diet

- It may lead to nutrient deficiencies: The keto diet is low in the intake of some important nutrients, such as vitamin C, fiber, potassium, magnesium, and calcium.

- It may lead to an increase in the level of fats in the blood: The keto diet may lead to an increase in the level of some types of fats in the blood, such as saturated fats and oxidized fats.
