The Keto Diet

I am sure that many, if not all of you, have heard about the ketogenic diet a lot lately. Maybe you have even tried it out! Recent research is proving that getting healthy fats (avocados, coconut oil, olive oil, and more) is important for your health and well-being, and the ketogenic diet might be a good way for you to make sure you are making these a part of your diet. However, there is some back and forth on just how healthy the typical keto diet might be.

When people are trying to implement this diet, it will usually involve a large cut in carbohydrates and a big rise in fats. This is great if you are still eating lots of vegetables and eating the healthy fats but this is not always the case. Check out the following links to read up more on the keto diet from Dr. Mark Hyman, a great source to follow for all things health and wellness! There is also a great article from Mind Body Green, another great resource.
