I have been on a strict Ketogenic diet for most of 2024 and now I to this year and I have seen amazing results. Keto is a low carb, high fat and protein diet that (if done cleanly) will greatly reduce use of processed foods, seed oils and sugar. It is like a reset. I would send pics to show acomparison but it does not let me attach more than 1.
