The Pros and Cons of the Keto Diet

It seems like every week in health and supplement news, there is a new diet, or food and health and wellness trend, dominating the headlines and contouring blog narratives. Think back on it: Atkins. the South Beach Diet, Low-Carb, No-Carb, Paleo, Vegetarian, Vegan…the list goes endlessly on and on. However, the new trendy diet that people swear by in person, on Facebook, in supplement stores, and especially on Instagram, is the Ketogenic, otherwise known as Keto. To some, it’s just another low-carb diet like any other, but upon a quick closer inspection, it has an interesting twist that attracts many people to giving it a chance — and of course, posting about it on their Instagram profiles and stories.

Advanced Carb Cycling

The term “carb cycling” refers to strategically altering your carbohydrate intake between low, medium, and high days rather than sticking to a set intake each day. By following a low, moderate, and high carb day cycle, you will be able to re-stimulate your metabolism and better regulate hormones. This will effectively kick your body into a fat burning state, restore depleted glycogen and give you energy to burn for high-intensity workouts. A typical 7-day carb cycle would look like this…

Intermittent Fasting

Are you tired of skipping meals? Are you tired of everyone telling you to count your calories all day long? Are you bored of everyone telling you what you can and can’t, should and shouldn’t eat? What if you could have that burger? What if you could have that ice cream with those little rainbow sprinkles you loved as a kid and don’t secretly want to admit you still like? Jokes aside, you may want to look into intermittent fasting. It’s not so much a diet as it is creating new eating habits. It’s not all candy and gumdrops (because obviously, it can’t be if you want to drop those few pesky pounds), but it’s a viable option, especially if you don’t want to outright give up your favorite foods. It just requires a bit of willpower and mind-over-matter — you’re just receding your intake of those foods and snacks, which is way better.
