First it is a high fat low carb diet that in a lot of way seems to be close to the Atkins diet as well as the low carb diets that were so popular all those years ago. It does seem like a lifetime that we were talking about Atkins as a diet solution. The way that this diet works and helps you to lose weight is when you reduce the amount of carbs and replace it with fat, your body goes into a burning phase that is known as Ketosis, this is where the diet gets its name is from the process of burning fat and reducing weight. The burning of fat also helps to create energy and Ketones in the liver, these can go to the brain and help in functionality there as well.
