What Is a Ketogenic Diet?
A ketogenic (keto) diet focuses on reducing carbohydrates while prioritising foods that support a low-carb lifestyle. When carb intake is kept low, the body can enter a metabolic state known as ketosis, where fat is used as a primary energy source.
Many people choose a keto lifestyle to support:
-
Reduced sugar and carbohydrate intake
-
Balanced energy levels
-
Structured, ingredient-focused eating
As with any diet, individual needs vary — always choose foods that align with your personal nutritional goals.
