Ketosis is a metabolic state in which the body burns fat for fuel instead of carbohydrates. This is achieved by consuming a very low-carbohydrate, high-fat diet known as a ketogenic diet. Ketosis can be a helpful tool for weight loss and blood sugar control in people with certain medical conditions like epilepsy and type 2 diabetes. However, it's important to follow a well-formulated ketogenic diet under the guidance of a healthcare professional to avoid potential negative health effects like nutrient deficiencies and dehydration.
