How to Quickly Enter Ketosis in Herbivorous, Carnivorous, or Omnivorous Diets
Whether you are a plant or animal eater, you can customize your diet to experience ketosis with minor dietary tweaks.
Our bodies create unique molecules that can perform healing functions. Imagine a molecule serving as an alternative energy source and also acting as a signaling molecule that can talk to our genes.
I am talking about ketone bodies. The undermined molecules are a gift given to our bodies during our evolution. Unless we have underlying health issues or genetic defects, our bodies naturally can create ketone bodies based on eating certain foods, refraining from food, or regular exercise.
Regarding eating, some of us only enjoy consuming plant-based foods, some prefer animal products, and others enjoy both types of foods. As diet is an individual matter, we must respect people’s choices. No one enjoys their lifestyle choices being criticized or judged.
Talking of diets, I’d like to emphasize a common feature in three types of eating styles. My goal is to highlight the importance of ketogenic diets to leverage ketosis, which might provide additional benefits to some people.
