Sample Book Insights:

#1 The ketogenic diet is a very effective way to control seizures in refractory childhood epilepsy. It is not an extreme diet, and has been used to treat epilepsy since the 1920s.

#2 The public has been scared about the keto diet because of some false scaremongering about the dietary changes required to induce it. However, ketones are not a toxic substance in your body, and they are not the cause of diseases.

#3 Ketosis is a metabolic state that occurs when you eat a very low-carb, moderate-protein, high-fat diet that forces your body to switch from using glucose as its primary source of fuel to running on ketones. Ketones are produced when the body burns fat, and they are used as an alternative fuel source when glucose isn’t available.

#4 Ketone bodies, which are produced during the process of keto-adaptation, provide an alternative fuel for the brain, heart, and most other organs when serum glucose and insulin levels are low.
