≡January 5th is Keto
January 5th is Keto Day in the United States. The day was created to raise awareness about the ketogenic (keto) diet, an eating style that prioritizes the consumption of healthy fats, moderate protein, and a significant reduction in carbohydrates. The goal of the diet is to induce a state of ketosis, in which the body burns fat as its primary source of energy instead of carbohydrates.
The ketogenic diet has medical origins, initially developed in the 1920s to help treat patients with epilepsy. Over time, it has gained popularity as a lifestyle and strategy for weight loss, type 2 diabetes management, and improving metabolic health. National Keto Day was established to celebrate the benefits of this eating approach and encourage people to learn more about how it can improve health and well-being.
