7-Day Ketogenic Regimen for Better Cholesterol and Blood Glucose Levels

By Gabriela

December 4, 2017


The keto regimen is known by the name low carb regimen, where the body makes ketones in the liver and uses it as energy. The regimen is known by names such as LCHF, i.e., low carb high fat, ketogenic regimen, and low carb regimen. As a matter of fact, it was designed by Dr.Geyelin in the 20s. The Ketogenic regimen is comprised of foods which are high in fat and low in carbs. Dr.Geyelin came up with that regimen because he discovered a strong link between the absences of carb foods and a reduced number of seizures in his patients. Also, he found a strong connection of that kind of regimen and regulation in the blood glucose levels, lower cholesterol levels, and controlled hunger. Studies show that it's beneficial for treating Alzheimer’s, epilepsy, diabetes, and heart issues.

Ketosis

The regimen is focused on removing sugar the same as other low carb regimens. It is known that the body uses sugar to make energy when we keep a regimen which is rich in carbs. But when sugar is unavailable, the body will start to melt the fat which is accumulated and reach the ketosis state. And that is when the regimen teaches the body how to melt its fat. Therefore, all we need to do is eat fewer carbs and more healthy fats and protein.
