| Summary |
The ketogenic diet is one that is very low in carbohydrate, high in fat, with moderate protein. This diet shifts the body into a natural, healthy metabolic state known as nutritional ketosis. In ketosis the body uses fat as its primary source of energy instead of glucose. Some of this fat is converted into an alternative form of fuel called ketones. Ketones are high-potency fuel that boost energy and cellular efficiency and activates special enzymes that regulate cell survival, repair, and growth. When a person is in nutritional ketosis, blood levels of ketones are elevated to therapeutic levels. In response, high blood pressure drops, cholesterol levels improve, inflammation is reduced, blood sugar levels normalize, and overall health improves. Low-fat diets have been heavily promoted for the past several decades as the answer to obesity and chronic disease. However, we are fatter and sicker now more than ever before. Obviously, the low-fat approach has not worked. Our bodies actually need fat for optimal health and function more efficiently using fat for fuel. In this book you will discover how people are successfully using the ketogenic diet to prevent and treat chronic and degenerative disease. Ketone therapy is backed by decades of medical and clinical research, and has proven to be both safe and effective for the treatment of variety of health issues. |

La dieta cetogenica es especialmente baja en carbohidratos, alta en grasas saludables y con proteinas moderadas. Esta dieta cambia el cuerpo a un estado metabolico natural y sano, conocido como cetosis nutricional. En cetosis el cuerpo utiliza la grasa como fuente primaria de energia en lugar de la glucosa. Cuando una persona esta en cetosis nutricional, los niveles sanguineos de cetonas se elevan a niveles terapeuticos. En respuesta, la presion sanguinea alta disminuye, los niveles de colesterol mejoran, la inflamacion se reduce, los niveles de azucar en la sangre se normalizan y la salud en general mejora. Las dietas bajas en grasas, han sido fuertemente promovidas durante las ultimas decadas como respuesta a la obesidad y a las enfermedades cronicas. Sin embargo, ahora estamos mas gordos y enfermos que nunca. Obviamente, el enfoque bajo en grasas no ha funcionado. Con este libro descubriras como la gente esta usando con exito la dieta de la cetogenia para prevenir y tratar enfermedades cronicas y degenerativas como el Alzheimer, Parkinson, entre otras. |
