Discovered by Russel Wilder in 1921, the ketogenic diet was derived as a solution for pediatric epilepsy. But it was eventually reimagined as a weight loss formula. The idea is to stick to high fats, moderate proteins, and low carbs.

The macronutrient breakdown is approximately 55% to 60% fat, 35% protein, and from 5% to 10% carbs totaling to around a 2,000 caloric intake for a day.

Thinking of giving it a try? Your friends at GR8NESS have curated a quick, easy menu sample for you to put together quickly with minimal effort. Check out what favorites you thought you had to miss out on, until now.
