If it’s all about calories in vs out, why is Keto so recommended
In: Other
I have a friend who trains professionally for mma and is always doing Keto so I had him explain it to me.
He told me the idea of keto is to stop eating carbs so that your body will burn fat. With no carbs in your diet your body will be forced to burn fat in order to create energy since you are no longer getting it from the carbs.
Edit: to add to this and further answer your question, a diet full of carbs allows the body to store its fat instead of burning it. The reason for this is because it takes more chemical reactions to burn fat than it does to burn carbs. You have to stop eating carbs to really force your body to get to work on burning the fat.
