The ketogenic diet was first introduced in the 1920s as a way to cure children with epilepsy. Since then, research has connected the diet to weight loss, thereby, making people without a record of seizures to clinch on the bandwagon. A study released in November 2017 in Diabetes & Metabolic Syndrome: Clinical Research & Reviews found that people who followed the keto diet for 10 weeks had noticeable changes in weight, body fat percentage, body mass index (BMI), and HgA1c levels.

Ketogenic diet is more than just a diet. This is an extremely powerful and sustainable lifestyle that allows you to heal your body and achieve optimal health and well-being. This is a journey that demands a commitment to learning, openness to changes and learning new traditional ways of thinking and living.

An Overview of the Ketogenic Kiet

The ketogenic is a low carb, high-fat diet that emphasizes the good fat found in dairy, protein, seed, and nuts. It is considered a restrictive diet because it eliminates grains, beans, and some certain oils, vegetables and fruits. It is one of the oldest diets with origins as far back as ancient Greece. The keto diet as we all know, it was designed in the 1920s as a way to treat epilepsy. Before then, patients would refrain from all food, and their seizures stopped.

However, fasting is not the most ideal long-time treatment, and medications were known for their mind-number properties. A low-carb, high-fat mimics many effects of fasting, let a patient eat good food and retain their cognitive abilities.

What Can You Eat On a Keto?

Keto friendly-foods include meat, vegetables, fruits, seeds, and nuts. Quality is very important, so choose grass-fed meat, pasture-raised eggs, and wild-caught seafood. Organic veggies and fruits are also recommended to get the most benefits out of the diet.

The Nine Healthiest Types of Cheese That are Beneficial on a Keto Diet

Cheese

Cheese has zero carbs and is high in fat, making it a great fit for the ketogenic diet. It's also rich in protein and calcium. But, a 1-ounce slice of cheese delivers about 30 percent of the daily value for saturated fat, so if you are worried about heart disease, consider portions when noshing on cheese.

Mozzarella

Mozzarella is a tender and white cheese with a high quantity of moisture content. It was founded in Italy and is usually made from Italian buffalo or cow’s milk. Mozzarella is low in sodium and calories than other cheeses. One ounce (28 grams) of full-fat mozzarella contains:

Calories: 85

Protein: 6 grams

Fat: 6 grams

Carbs: 1 gram

Sodium: 176 mg — 7% of the Reference Daily Intake (RDI)

Calcium: 14% of the RDI

Mozzarella also contains bacteria that act as probiotics, including strains of Lactobacillus casei and Lactobacillus fermentum.

Both animal and human studies show that these probiotics may improve gut health, promote immunity, and fight inflammation in your body.

Mozzarella tastes delicious in Caprese salad — made with fresh tomatoes, basil, and balsamic vinegar — and can also be added to many recipes.
