I've been hearing a lot of talk about the keto diet. What is it?

The ketogenic diet is a high-fat, low-carbohydrate diet that can help you lose weight and improve your health. It involves drastically reducing your intake of carbohydrates and replacing them with fat, protein, and other nutrients. This type of diet has been around for centuries and was used as a treatment for epilepsy in the 1920s. However, it wasn’t until recently that scientists discovered that it could be beneficial for weight loss, diabetes, heart disease, and more.
