Ketogenic Diet for Diabetes

The keto diet (short for ketogenic diet) generally requires consuming 75% of your daily calories from fat, 20% from protein and just 5% from carbohydrates. Unlike some low-carb diets that recommend nixing sugar and processed grains (like white bread and pasta), going on the ketogenic diet also means eliminating nearly all carbs from your diet, including fruits, whole grains and some vegetables. Ketogenic diet proponents say that eating this way increases energy lowers diabetes risk and helps you lose weight quickly without any hunger. But the science behind ketogenic is very limited, with very few clinical studies in humans. Researchers have warned that there’s still a lot they don’t know about how high-fat, low-carb eating impacts for long-term health.
