Summary
Ketosis diet or ketogenic diet, to be medically precise, is a very low carbohydrate diet with emphasis on moderate protein and high fat nutrition. Conventionally, it has been used as a treatment for diabetes and several physicians have supported its claim of being helpful in weight loss.
The diet operates in similar facets to starvation with an important twist. In the latter, the body is deprived of all diet for several days while depending upon juices, drinks, or water to get by but when it comes to the ketosis diet, the body is forced to burn fat instead of carbohydrates for meeting its energy condition.
In the absence of carbohydrates, the liver can burn fat and turn it into fatty acids and ketones or ketone bodies. Obviously, to accomplish the ends of ketosis diet, all carbohydrate-rich foods such as cereal grains, sugar, specific vegetables, etc. need to be eliminated from diet.
