Keto-Friendly Protein Smoothie Recipe

Keto-Friendly Protein Smoothie Recipe

A keto diet is a high-fat, low-carbohydrate eating approach that has been shown to offer numerous health benefits. By significantly reducing carbohydrate intake and increasing fat consumption, the body enters a state of ketosis, where it burns fat for fuel instead of glucose. This can lead to enhanced weight loss, improved blood sugar control, increased energy levels, and reduced inflammation. Additionally, some studies suggest that a keto diet may help lower the risk of certain diseases, such as type 2 diabetes and heart disease.
