The Ketogenic diet is gaining popularity due mainly of its ability to burn stubborn fats away; those fats that are considered unyielding specifically found in the midsection, hips, and buttocks. These visceral fats are the most immovable fats that are hard to eliminate. The Ketogenic diet mainly teaches the body on ways on how to convert these stored fats into usable energy.
For those who would like to try on this diet, note that it is a highly restrictive regimen in that the body's production of glucose is lowered. Meaning, you are not allowed to eat starchy vegetables, sugary fruits, and carbohydrates from grains. Instead, you will consume meat, nuts, dairy products, seeds, and good fats.
