What is the Standard Ketogenic Diet, and how can you use it to lose weight? Even after many years of research on food and nutrition and a far more extended conflict and uncertainty period, Coronavirus (COVID-19) has blocked all activities and socialization. So many people are eager and show anger, yet a diet plan can change your life; the Keto Diet can boost your immune system, burn fat, and extend your life expectancy.

The Keto diet contains high-fat content, moderate protein, and low carbohydrate. Therefore, it has the best qualities of many other diets: Atkins, Low-carb, veganism, Gluten-free, and Low-calorie diet. In addition, the Keto Diet regulates the process known as ketosis by replacing carbohydrates with fat as the primary energy source.

The lower carbohydrate consumption puts the body into a metabolic state. When the process of ketosis starts, it creates energy by burning fat. In addition, it provides power to brain cells. The Keto Diet also reduces blood sugar levels. But it has some side effects like Keto Flu and higher cholesterol levels.

 The 4 Types of Ketogenic Diets

  • Standard Ketogenic Diet
  • Cyclical Ketogenic Diet
  • Targeted Ketogenic Diet
  • High-Protein Ketogenic Diet

A standard keto diet contains high-fat content (75%), moderate protein (20), and low carbohydrate (5%).

Foods Recommended for Ketosis:

The best foods for the Standard Ketogenic Diet are avocado, fatty fish, olive oil, poultry, eggs, butter and cream, cheese, nuts, spinach, swiss chard, mackerel, pumpkinseed, and healthy fats. Here is a complete list of the foods, nutrients, and quantities recommended:

Benefits of the Standard Ketogenic Diet

Weight loss: The Keto Diet is the most popular diet for weight loss; carbohydrates are the primary glucose source in the body. Whenever you eat high-carb foods, more glucose is in your body.

But the human body needs low glucose to work effectively. Ketones produced through ketosis are the primary substance required by the body. So if you want to lose weight, then eat low carbs. The low-carb diet is gut-friendly and fiber-rich.

Reduce appetite: Ketosis enables you to feel less hungry. The ketosis process begins when your body has less than 50-gram of carbs available for energy. When carbs are low, and ketones are available, it leads you to feel less hungry.

Low blood sugar level: studies prove that cutting carbs drastically lowers blood sugar and insulin levels. Low-carb and Ketogenic diets can help people with diabetes and insulin resistance, affecting millions worldwide.

The Side Effects of the Standard Keto Diet

High cholesterol: The Keto diet can increase the body’s cholesterol levels because the liver produces lower triglycerides, which may increase HDL and LDL.

Keto flu: When the body reaches ketosis, there are several symptoms. The following symptoms are typical: diarrhea, nausea, constipation, fatigue, headache, and sugar cravings. The symptoms commonly start after getting on a Keto diet and last from one week to one month.

The Best Exercise for the Standard Keto Diet

Running or walking: Running or walking are types of cardiovascular exercises. Their benefits are losing weight, decreasing belly fat, boosting the immune system, ratcheting up stamina, strengthening the heart, and preventing and managing chronic conditions. Running will be better than walking if you want to lose weight faster. Also, walking with a vest helps you lose weight if you can’t run because of health reasons.

An Elliptical Machine: It is the best exercise machine for cardio exercise, boosts stamina, burns belly fat, reduces the stress on joints, and maintains balance. You can perform two workout plans: high-intensity interval training and cardio workout.

Bi-cycling: It can decrease belly fat, heart disease, and cancer risk and improve leg fitness, lung health, and mental health. Bi-cycling is an indoor and outdoor exercise that is gentle on the ankles, knees, and hips.

Try These Focused Abdominal Exercises on Getting Better Results with the Standard Keto Diet.

The captain’s chair leg raises: It looks like an oversized chair with no seat. The captain’s chair leg raises use a padded backrest, padded horizontal supports for the arms, and supports for your feet. It singles out the abs muscles and strengthens your core for stability.

Exercise ball crunch: targets the rectus abdominis; it can help you create a  6-pack once you have eliminated most of your stomach fat. The exercise ball crunch also stabilizes the entire core and increases the range of motion. Also, check out the mentioned Targeted, High-Protein, and Cyclical Keto diet articles.
