Ketosis is a normal process in the body, which happens when your body doesn't have enough carbs to burn for energy and instead burns fat and makes substances called ketones to use for fuel.
The Ketogenic diet has been used since the 1920s as a medical therapy diet for epilepsy patients that do not respond to anti-epilepsy drugs (AEDs) to aid seizure control.
Someone new to the keto diet can also experience upset stomach, dizziness, decreased energy, and mood swings caused by your body adapting to ketosis.
It could cause low blood pressure, kidney stones, constipation, nutrient deficiencies and an increased risk of heart disease. Strict diets like keto could also cause social isolation or disordered eating. Keto is not safe for those with any conditions involving their pancreas, liver, thyroid or gallbladder.
