Keto Weight Loss Results

The science behind why a keto diet results in weight loss is relatively straightforward. When undertaking a keto diet, you restrict your carbohydrate intake whilst maintaining moderate levels of protein and significantly increasing your daily intake of fats. Through this restriction, your body is unable to use carbohydrates as fuel and therefore burns fat to produce energy instead. This creates a metabolic state within your body called ketosis. During ketosis, your body produces molecules called ketones as an alternative to glucose, to be used as the main energy source for your body. Without glucose, your body produces significantly less insulin, resulting in a decrease in the storage of fat and an increase in the fat burning within your body. At Be Fit Food, our weight loss programs result in a mild nutritional metabolic state, which is significantly more sustainable for the human body as there are less restrictions around food intake.
