This diet is often called keto diet and it dates back to the 1920s. Endocrinologist Dr. Henry Geyelin created this diet to treat epilepsy. But later in 1921 Geyelin found that this type of food was actually effective on how the body processes nutrients and it lead to a fewer attacks in all patients.
This diet is really similar to the Atkins diet where the phase induction with the Atkins diet is actually ketogenic diet. The main important thing about ketogenic diet is to reduce the carbohydrates intake and replace them with healthy fats and protein. This is why we want to help you and we will show you example of 7 day ketogenic diet meal plan.
