You may have heard all about the keto diet. Keto feels like a buzzword. The keto diet is more than just a buzzword through and it’s here to stay. The ketogenic (or “keto”) diet is a low-carbohydrate, high-fat, and moderate-protein eating plan designed to shift your body into a state called ketosis. In ketosis, your body burns fat for fuel instead of carbohydrates — leading to steady energy, reduced cravings, and often, fat loss.

To achieve this, most people aim for a daily carb intake of 20–50 grams of net carbs, depending on activity level and individual tolerance. The focus is on whole, nutrient-dense foods that support energy and metabolic balance.
