KETO101 - The 15-Day Keto Crash Course
Day 1: Intro to Keto
To start off this right, we will be providing information on what the keto diet is, what it requires, and how to start it.
What is Keto Diet?
The Keto Diet (short for Ketogenic Diet) consists of 70% fat, 25% protein, and 5% carbs. You generally want to keep your carbs at 20 grams max, but if you are starting out, make sure to keep your carb intake at 30 grams or lower.
Fun Facts
- Ketosis burns fat, instead of sugar
- Keto helps with weight loss!
- Keto helps lower glucose and insulin levels
- Keto helps reduce cravings (no more junk food!)
- 75% of Americans are not consuming enough vegetables, fruits, or healthy oils
- The American Diet consists of lots of sugar, sodium, and calories (yuck!)
- What’s cool about keto is you can eat delicious, rich foods that satisfy your cravings (the way sugar NEVER can)
Obstacles
