Keto diet It is one of the best methods to shed body fat while preserving muscle mass. As Indians we have a propensity for insulin resistance compared to Caucasians. By eliminating all the concentrated sources of carbohydrates, the insulin levels are kept low allowing fat to burn. Besides, it also suppresses appetite, eliminates the need for frequent feeding, keeps lethargy at bay amongst many other benefits. The key here is to ensure that the ratio of protein to fat is in sync with your health and fitness goals; best planned by a qualified expert. Kindly contact us for customized diet & workout plan.
