How do you make it simpler to stick to a low-carb lifestyle in the long run, and maximize your benefits? That's what we want to assist you with. Making low carb simple is our mission, and here's another practical hack that you could start using today.

Try the ketogenic diet

When trying to lose weight, we certainly want our bodies to be fat-burning machines. And the best way to do that is by making sure that you're in ketosis - our body's high-gear, fat-burning mode.

So how do you get into ketosis?

How to get into ketosis

You eat low carb (preferably less than 20 grams of carbs per day), moderate protein (approximately 1 gram per kg of desired body weight) and fill up with healthy fats. This drives your insulin down greatly, so that your fat burning can really get going.

You can also try adding in some intermittent fasting and exercise to ramp up your ketone production.

If you want our full guide to the ketogenic diet, here it is:
