The word ketogenic is derived from the word “ketosis” which
means the state of the body when it doesn’t have enough
glucose in it to turn it into energy, so it generates ketones that
work as an amazing source of energy for both the
 
body and the
brain which makes it a great option for losing weight in a short
term.
The keto diet prevents you from consuming the lot for carbs
that are the main reason of gaining weight because the sugar
makes you hungry most of the time. When y
ou consume carbs
with small portions and focus more on protein and fat; your
body doesn’t push you most of the time to eat; instead, it uses
those fats to satisfy your hunger and keep you active.

If you are looking for a diet that will help you lose weight in a
very short term, the ketogenic diet is the perfect diet for you
because it not only helps you achieve great lean body; but also
provides immense health benefits.
