Today, we discuss the scientific meaning of the Keto diet. After reading today’s post, you will understand it immediately. The Keto diet has no negative effects.
Your body is always in a state of ketosis.
Ketosis is a normal metabolic process that keeps the body running. Symptoms of ketosis include increased energy, reduced appetite, and weight loss.
The body manufactures a greater number of ketones to digest the fat. A normal, healthy person who consumes a balanced diet does not abuse ketones.
Worldwide, what is Keto diet?
Keto diets are gaining popularity as a successful weight loss strategy. The priority is on a diet high in fat and protein. The wonderful thing about the body going into ketosis is that you always have a satisfying feeling in your head.
It maintains your muscles, and you are never hungry. In the European Union, pediatricians recommend this diet to children with diabetes, epilepsy, and seizures.
In most people, ketosis will kick in just three to four days. I had switched to it in three days myself. In the first week, you may have numerous restroom stops and a persistent, minor headache.
Believe me, in just a week, all these symptoms will vanish.
Most other diets leave you exhausted and annoyed at the end of the day. Once my body switched to ketosis, I had the energy to run around the clock.
I can’t adequately describe this feeling with words; you have to feel it for yourself. I felt my mental doors had opened.
The only negative side effect that I need to share with you is the change in your body smell. You will notice after three days that the taste in your mouth will be slightly metallic. And your partner might observe a strange smell from your body.
The only way you can tackle it is by keeping yourself well-hydrated. I keep a bottle of lime juice mixed with salt and water on my bedside at all times. At all times, try to maintain the salt and mineral balance of your body. It helps manage the keto diet, which everyone in a month.
Like any normal woman, I was concerned about the diet’s impact on my hair and skin. You will be happy to know that my hair loss has reduced, and my skin is glowing like a young girl. My friends will vouch for that.

Time to get serious now, no more excuses.

Hi. Im about to start keto diet. Is around 6 eggs and 100 gm roast chicken with coconut oil per day sufficient to get me into ketosis?
Priya Dogra
It doesn’t work like this. Keto is a scientific diet. You need to calculate your macros and calories intake precisely. Drop me a mail if you need more information.

Hey, I joined SQUATS few months back. Started KETO, but dropped it after few days due to lack of motivation, my love for tea and paranthas and not enough recipes 😛 But, this time I am pretty sure that I will give KETO a solid attempt and not fail. Thanks for this wonderful website, which is a savior for all KETO diet followers. I have a doubt that is Lime Water (Nimbu Pani with salt and black pepper) allowed in KETO as some says it’s not allowed. Need your expert advice on this, please 🙂 keep doing this great work for the community. 🙂
Priya Dogra
Hi, thanks for the support and appreciation. Lime water is allowed, but do make sure it fits into your macros. I, for one, start my day with green tea, with the juice of half a lime. All the best!
