Another expert said that most people who follow a low-sugar-rich diet refer to it as their keto diet.

More nutritionists say it usually contains 70 to 75 percent fat, 20% protein and 5 to 10 percent sugar. Most vegetables, such as spinach, should be eaten in moderation when following the Keto diet.

  • What is the history of the Keto Diet?

According to the NCBI, the first use of the Keto diet was in 1921 by a physician named Russell Wilder. He named it the Ketogenic Diet.

What is on the food list of the Keto diet? Or what foods make up the list of keto diets? According to some experts, the Keto diet contains foods that are high in fat. For example, meat, fish, oil, almonds, cheese, and vegetables and greens that are low in carbohydrates. Since carbohydrate foods are omitted in the Keto diet, bread, pasta, rice and any baked food cannot be taken. Also the roots used as different types of beans or vegetables, mostly fruits, cesarean rich vegetables like light these are omitted.

  • Is the Keto Diet Safe?

According to some experts at a British health organisation, it is important for people to have one-third sugar and one-third fruits and vegetables in their daily diet. Which naturally leads to the question of whether the Keto diet is safe? And there are two doctrines for and against it.

In the Keto diet, people eat more protein and fatty foods instead of sugary foods. However, following a long-term diet can have a negative effect on people. Eating more high-fat foods increases the levels of saturated fats in the human body. According to the U.S. National Health Policy, men should not consume more than 30 grams of saturated fat per day and women 20 grams per day. In addition, high protein intake can create more problems for those who suffer from kidney problems. But most keto diets contain high levels of tolerable protein.
