The ketogenic or “keto” diet has been going around Silicon Valley and Hollywood. There are so many diets that don’t seem to create lasting effects, but according to this journalist who tried it for two months, the keto diet can provide real, lasting changes.
Business Insider writer Melia Robinson wrote the diet is not new at all. In fact, it was popular in the 1920s when physicians were looking for ways to treat epilepsy and diabetes patients. The standard dietary guidelines set by the U.S. Department of Agriculture is 225 to 325 grams of carbs a day, but the keto diet will only require you to take a maximum of 50 grams of carbs a day.
The way keto diet works is that it compensates using other forms of fat to give the body the energy it needs that it usually takes from carbohydrates.
