I've heard about a new diet fad, but I'm not sure if it's a good idea

The ketogenic diet is an eating plan that focuses on high fat, moderate protein and low carbohydrate intake. It's been used to treat epilepsy in children since the 1920s and has also been found to be effective for weight loss. However, there are some potential side effects such as fatigue, constipation, headaches and dizziness. You should speak with your doctor before starting any diet or exercise program.
