Keyto Diet

The Keyto diet is a low-carb, Mediterranean-style diet that places a focus on fish and plant-based meals for their healthful proteins and fats. The eating strategy does away with added sugar and refined carbohydrates. According to supporters, this strategy offers the metabolic advantages of a low-carb diet, such as diabetes management and weight loss, as well as the health benefits of the Mediterranean diet, such as enhanced heart health and sustainability.

Dr. Ray Wu, a preventive cardiologist at the University of California, San Francisco, Dr. Ethan J. Weiss, and Liane Nakamura, an engineer and product developer, created the diet in 2018. The popular keto diet, which emphasizes quick weight loss through a very high-fat and low-carb diet, and the keto diet are comparable in many ways. When you cut back on carbohydrates and increase your intake of fats, advocates of the keto diet claim that your body will safely enter ketosis, a metabolic state in which your body converts food and stored fats into energy.
