Ketones

Ketones are important organic compounds formed in the human body as a result of fat breakdown.

With reduced carbohydrate intake, the body starts using fats as the primary source of energy. Fats are broken down into ketones, which are used by cells to produce energy. This process is called ketosis.

Ketones provide efficient nourishment to cells, especially the brain, in conditions of low glucose levels.

Following a keto diet promotes the activation of ketone body formation, which can be beneficial for weight loss and overall health improvement.
