In this podcast, the Ketogenic diet is a simple method of eating certain foods and certain combinations that cause the body to run on an alternative fuel source called ketones. When you’re on fat burning, the body makes ketones which is a much healthier fuel source, less waste, more efficient, and more energy. An average person has roughly over 90 to 100,000 calories of stored fat versus that same person only has about 1,700 calories of stored sugar. The real big advantage of the ketogenic diet versus other diets is that hunger and cravings go away making it very easy to do long-term. If we compare the ketogenic diet to a typical diet which is either low calorie or low fat, these two diets are usually always higher in carbohydrates. It is the carbohydrates that actually prevent fat burning.  Lowering your carbohydrate into between 20 and 50 grams is what basically makes people go into ketosis and the lower the carbohydrates the more you get into ketosis.
