Description: The Ketogenic
Diet' is a complete resource for anyone interested in low-carbohydrate diets
(such as the Atkins Diet, Protein Power, Bodyopus or the Anabolic Diet). It
looks objectively at the physiology behind such diets, including potential
negative effects, and gives specific recommendations on how to optimize such a
diet assuming an individual has chosen to do one.
Two modified
ketogenic diets (which involve the insertion of carbohydrates to sustain
exercise performance) are also discussed in detail, along with specific
guidelines. Exercise is discussed in great detail, including background
physiology, the effects of exercise on fat loss, exercise guidelines and sample
workouts. A great deal of basic physiology information, dealing with both
nutrition and exercise topics, is included so that readers without a technical
background will be able to understand the topics discussed.
