Chapter 1: Keto Meal Prep BasicsKeto Diet BasicsKeto is a short form of ketogenic diet which is one of the most popular andhealthiest diet plans available today. Before starting your meal preparationjourney, you must know the basics facts about keto diet plan.To perform daily activities our body needs some energy and the best sourceof this energy comes from carbohydrates (glucose), fats, and proteins. Ketodiet is a perfect blend of these three energy sources. The keto diet is low carband a high-fat diet also needs an adequate amount of protein to maintainmuscle mass. Normally our body depends on glucose for energy. Glucose is asimple sugar used by our body for energy. When glucose levels increase ourbody converts this extra glucose into the form of glycogens. These glycogensare mostly stored into liver and muscle cells as a reserve form of energy.When you are performing any hard work, exercise, or any athletic activitythese stored glycogens are used for energy.Keto diet is a low carb diet, due to lack of carb your body finds an alternativesource of energy to keep it working properly. In this condition, our body goesinto the state of ketosis. It is one of the metabolic processes where fat burnsfor energy instead of carb (glucose) and produces ketones.Ketones are small molecules like substances produced into our bodies in theabsence of carb (glucose). They are produced during the fat burning processinto the liver and send these ketones through your bloodstream. It is one kindof acid used by your body muscles and other tissues as a fuel. Keto diet helpsto manage the weight efficiently, compare to other diet keto diet gives longterm weight loss benefits. It not only improves your physical health but alsoimproves mental health.
