One of the most controversial topics in dieting and healthy living continues to be the ketogenic diet.

POPSUGAR spoke with cardiologists, heart surgeons, and a clinical nutritionist to find out what experts know at this point and how to navigate a low-carb, high-fat diet without the deadly risk of heart disease.
