I've been hearing a lot about the keto diet. What is it and how does it work?

The Keto diet is a very low-carbohydrate, high-fat diet that has been shown to be effective for weight loss. It involves eating foods high in fat and very low in carbohydrates such as meat, fish, eggs, nuts, seeds, and avocados. This helps to kickstart ketosis, which is a metabolic state where your body produces ketones instead of glucose. Ketones are a source of energy for your brain and other organs and can help you burn fat faster.
