Hi there, I've recently started a ketogenic diet, do you know what that is?
It means a high fat and protein diet so your body makes ketones when breaking them down to create energy.
Yes, it's a unique diet that forces your body to burn fats rather than carbohydrates. It can be very beneficial to weight loss.
Thats cool!
Something else that I found neat about it was that almost half of children and young people saw a reduction in their epilepsy episodes after beginning a ketogenic diet.
Oh that is cool! I never knew it could help with epilepsy.
Yes, there is some evidence that adults may benefit from the diet as well. It's one of those things that you really wouldn't think have any effect on each other, but they do!
