Ketogenic Diet

A very low-carbohydrate diet that forces the body to burn fat.

Definition

The ketogenic diet is very low in carbohydrates (<50g/day), high in fat (70-75% of total energy expenditure), and moderate in protein. It induces nutritional ketosis — the body uses ketone bodies as the primary fuel.
