The Ketogenic Quickstart Guide

     The ketogenic diet is a specific nutrition plan that helps the body produce ketones and utilize these ketones as an energy source.  This nutrition plan is composed of a low level of carbohydrates, moderate protein levels and high in fats. The general breakdown is 60-80% fats, 10-30% protein and 5-10% carbohydrates.  The variance in the ranges depends upon how active the individual is and how carbohydrate and protein sensitive they are.
