MACROS~DIET TYPES
Standard ketogenic diet (SKD): This is a very low-carb, moderate-protein and high-fat diet. It typically contains 75% fat, 20% protein and only 5% carbs
Cyclical ketogenic diet (CKD): This diet involves periods of higher-carb refeeds, such as 5 ketogenic days followed by 2 high-carb days.
Targeted ketogenic diet (TKD): This diet allows you to add carbs around workouts.
High-protein “Carnivore” ketogenic diet: This is similar to a standard ketogenic diet, but includes more protein. The ratio is often 60% fat, 35% protein and 5% carbs.
There are many studies pointing to the benefits of Keto diet principles. The biggest boost, in my opinion, is the emphasis on healthy fats. These elements are already in the program with the virtual elimination of grains and complex carbs but by adding a Keto element the emphasis on healthy fats is intensified. Consuming high levels of these good fats and unadulterated proteins can offer great results such as preventing:
Heart disease: The ketogenic diet can improve risk factors like body fat, HDL cholesterol levels, blood pressure and blood sugar
Alzheimer’s disease: The keto diet may reduce symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease and slow its progression
Epilepsy: Research has shown that the ketogenic diet can cause massive reductions in seizures in epileptic children
Parkinson’s disease: One study found that the diet helped improve symptoms of Parkinson’s disease
Polycystic ovary syndrome: The ketogenic diet can help reduce insulin levels, which may play a key role in polycystic ovary syndrome (40
Brain injuries: One animal study found that the diet can reduce concussions and aid recovery after brain injury
Acne: Lower insulin levels and eating less sugar or processed foods may help improve acne
