The ketogenic diet advocates eating foods that are high in fat but have next to no carbohydrates. The goal of this diet is to achieve the natural metabolic state of ketosis. This is the moment when our body begins to use ketones (i.e. fat) instead of carbohydrates to generate energy.

Many people who want to start with a ketogenic diet are a little at a loss because it seems that all foods have way too many carbohydrates for them. But that is only correct at first glance. There are many delicious dishes that are virtually free from carbohydrates.

We recommend that you seek medical advice first before starting a ketogenic diet. If there are no medical concerns, we now have three delicious ketogenic dishes to start with, which are also quick to prepare. So, here’s how you can try the ketogenic diet without much effort.

Enjoy your meal.
