History of the keto diet

What is the Ketogenic diet (keto)?

A ketogenic (or ‘keto’) diet is eating a very small amount of carbohydrates (20-50 g maximum), a moderate amount of protein and a high amount of fat per day.

Risks of the keto diet

Keto is not recommended for individuals with any of the following medical conditions:

• Pancreatitis

The long-term health risks are unknown.

A healthier approach to keto by The New Mayo Clinic Diet

• It is still keeping carbs low and fats high, but rather than loading up on processed meat, butter and cream, it delivers healthy fats from extra virgin olive oil, avocado, salmon, nuts and seeds.
• As a result, the meal plan contains less unhealthy saturated fat (keeping it below the recommended 10 percent a day).
• And although the Healthy Keto meal plan keeps net carbs at around 50 grams per day, it includes good-for-you ingredients like berries, beans, and carb-containing veggies.

What to expect on a ketogenic diet

A ketogenic diet should always be followed in consultation with your doctor or a dietitian, to ensure that you get the right amount and types of fats, fiber and vitamins, as well as minerals.

Final conclusions:

• A balance of all nutrients should be stricken and with appropriate proportions. A too little intake of any nutrients can be harmful.
• ​The research recommends the keto diet for treating epilepsy, under medical supervision; it is a very complicated treatment. As for treating obesity, losing weight, among other health benefits, keto remains under study.
• For long-term diets, moderation should be maintained. However, studies have shown that the keto diet may be useful for achieving fast benefits, such as short-term weight-loss. On the long run, though, keto may increase the risk of diseases or death.
• For a useful and convenient diet, consult with a nutritionist, who will design a programme that is appropriate for your body and health status, helps you lose weight, without prejudice to other health considerations.

The key to maintaining a healthy weight in the long-term is an eating pattern that you can sustain over time.
