It does take around 2 to 10 days for some people to get into ketosis, depending upon how used to running on glucose their body is.
This is because the body has to manufacture whole new enzymes to use ketones for fuel.
Once you do, you’ll dump a lot of fat.
Therefore, it’s crucial to follow the program to keep the liver healthy while dumping all this fat off the body. Some people begin to experience side effects when going through this adjustment period like flagging energy or “keto flu.”
There are easy ways to remedy this.
Here are the 5 musts I recommend to make adjusting to keto and IF easy and effective.
1. YOU MUST ADD INTERMITTENT FASTING KETO TO STAY IN FAT-BURNING MODE LONGER AND LOSE MAXIMUM WEIGHT
Intermittent fasting keto is a power combo for major weight loss.
Both of these approaches are all about suppressing insulin so you can use your own fat for fuel. IF suppresses any insulin spikes to that 6 to 8-hour feeding window, leaving you in fat-burning mode the other 16 to 18 hours a day. By eating ketogenic when you do eat—restricting your carb intake to 20 to 50 grams of carbs a day—you suppress insulin and hunger, so you can go longer between meals without feeling deprived.
So you’re running on your own fat for fuel all day.
Intermittent fasting and keto work together to turn on powerful hormones that activate fat burning. It lowers insulin, which increases fat burning, and raises fat-burning growth hormone by 5 times its normal level.
2. YOU MUST ADD 7 CUPS OF VEGETABLES TO PREVENT A FATTY LIVER
You must eat lots of vegetables to prevent a fatty liver when you’re doing a ketogenic diet.
Why? Because you’re going to be literally melting your fat stores and dumping huge amounts of fat through the liver.
