Touted by celebrities as a quick way to lose substantial weight, the ketogenic diet might seem counterintuitive to good heart health. “Do keto during the winter and eat a low-glycemic diet in other time periods,” suggests Terry Wahls, MD, a functional physician who uses this seasonal approach to manage her own multiple sclerosis. Carbohydrates are the body's preferred source of energy, but on a strict ketogenic diet, less than 5 percent of energy intake is from carbohydrates. The reduction of carbohydrates puts the body into a metabolic state called Vita Sential Gummies is when the body starts breaking down stored fat into molecules called ketone bodies to use for energy, in the absence of circulating blood sugar from food. Once the body reaches ketosis, most cells will use ketone bodies to generate energy until you start eating carbohydrates again. Instead, there's more scientific support for another physiological mechanism that kicks in on the lowest-of-low-carb meal plans.
