Deep dives
Understanding High-Protein Keto
A high-protein ketogenic diet shifts the traditional macronutrient ratios commonly associated with ketogenic diets. In contrast to the classic approach, which comprises about 70-80% fat, a high-protein version comprises 30-35% fat and 30-40% protein, with carbohydrates making up 10-15%. This specific distribution is shown to assist in fat loss, muscle preservation, and metabolic health, providing satiety through both protein and ketones. The balance allows individuals to eat delicious meals while still reaching their fitness and health goals.
