Ketogenic Diet Fat Bombs Jennifer Sullivan

The Ketogenic Diet is one that is taking the world by storm. It gets its name from 'ketogenesis' which is a process where the body starts to burn fat for energy instead of carbohydrates. When the right balance is achieved with your diet, the liver starts to produce ketones. These ketones are made from fat and they can then be used as fuel for the body and the mind.



The key markers of a ketogenic diet are high fat intake and low carbohydrate intake. People on this diet should also try to eat a moderate amount of protein with each meal.



The Ketogenic Diet is used for many to help them reach their weight loss goals. For others, it is used to manage conditions like diabetes and frequent seizures. Regardless, some people choose to test their ketone levels. This is especially important for diabetics following the diet, since the production of too many ketones can lead to a condition called ketoacidosis.



The good news is that boring food is not on the menu for the Ketogenic diet and you do not have to give up desserts. Between the pages of this book, you will find dozens of sweet and savory desserts to enjoy on the Ketogenic Diet. This includes cakes, bars, candy, frozen treats, and more. These 'fat bombs' are incredibly tasty and the best part is that you can eat them without guilt!
