Hi lybrate-user The object of a keto diet is to force your body to get into and stay in a glycogen deprived state and maintain a mild state of ketosis (burning fats for energy. On a carb based diet, carbs are converted into glucose and this is what the body will use for its primary fuel source. Only if traditional methods like a healthy diet and exercise hVe failed to give you results then go in for keto. You can follow it Anywhere from 2 ? 7 days, depending on your body type, activity levels, and what you're eating. The fastest way to get into ketosis is to exercise on an empty stomach, restrict your carbohydrate intake to 20g or less per day, and be vigilant with your water intake. First try regular balanced healthy and nutritious diet with exercise for a period of 2-3 months. If they fail then go in for keto for max 1 week as a plateau breaker. I would still put this in a fad diet category. TKe the help of a professional nutritionist and trainer to guide you further.
