When you talk to people and you mention ketosis, sometimes they freak out because, oh yeah, you're in a high-fat diet,

you're going to clog your arteries.

But let's just kind of dig into actually what makes up a ketogenic diet,

or what puts you into ketosis.

It's not the high-fat. If you just went in a high fat diet, you wouldn't necessarily get

in the ketosis. It's the low carbohydrate, because when you actually get rid of carbohydrates

and cut it down to 5% of your total calories,

you force your body to switch the fuel to burn more fat. So in the absence of insulin, in the absence of sugar, glucose,

carbohydrates, your body is then forced to burn more fat. So if you keep your

carbohydrates very low, you have to make it up with other things.
