Synopsis: The ketogenic diet is more popular than ever — for a reason! This form of nutrition turns our organism into a fat burning machine and at the same time fights the most common diseases such as arteriosclerosis, high blood pressure, diabetes mellitus, obesity and others in an impressive way. The fact that our organism is capable of ketogenesis has ensured the survival of our ancestors in evolutionary development. Therefore, ketosis must be understood as an absolutely physiological process. This book not only provides the reader with detailed background information, but also deals with the special features and scientific aspects of ketosis. It creates a complex understanding of the topic and facilitates the path to a comprehensive, independent and successful change in diet.
