When starting a diet it's best to do all the research you can prior to beginning. However, even if you haven't done extensive research ahead of time that doesn't mean you're not going to be successful on a diet. It just means that you will likely have more to learn along the way.

One successful diet for many is the ketogenic diet, which focuses on consuming fats and proteins rather than carbs. The Body Reboot book reminds us that by pushing a body into ketosis and forcing it to burn energy from fat instead of carbs you'll not only get to lose weight but feel more energetic and have a better metabolism too. And that's just a few perks of this diet! Check out what else you should learn about the keto diet:

As this keto dieter reminds us during the video, it's important to test your blood sugar to see how you're doing. In addition, it's also a good idea to monitor your sodium, potassium, and magnesium levels. Furthermore, having the right snacks readily available will make all the difference; you are less likely to be tempted if you have a keto-friendly snack in your purse or bag! And of course, drinking enough water is also important while on the keto diet. All of these little changes will make a big difference when starting your diet and later, reaping the benefits.
