What is a Ketogenic Diet? (Simple)
It is a diet where the source of energy comes from fat, not carbohydrates. In a ketogenic diet 70-75% of calories must come from fats, 15-20% from proteins and less than 10% from carbs.
In the kitchen it means that yours meals should look like this:
Your diet can be as simple as gourmet as you want. You can play with different condiments, spices, preparation to create different meals every day. O you could stay simple, eating basic meals like salads, soups or stir fry.
The best trick you can learn with this diet is to add nuts and seeds (and relative butters) in every meal! They're packed with protein and good fat and minimal amounts of carbs (mostly fibers). Sprinkle hemp seeds, chia seeds, pumpkin seeds...and at the end of the day your macros will be on point, with minimal effort!
