Ketogenic diet may not be as simple as you think.
There is a poem in the newspaper: "Teenagers leave home, old people return, and the local accent has not changed."

The author and I, as a senior "South" drifter in Northeast China, can't get rid of the fate of "dressing tight and returning home" in this relaxed land of Jiangnan, even if we leave the heavy oil and salt diet in the north, because we can't help eating snacks after working for a long time.

The boredom of life and overtime work, rain or shine, not only lead to the inevitable baldness, but also bring a disastrous consequence, that is, there is no return on the road of getting fat, so when most people look at their greasy stomachs and realize this, they can say that they have tried their best to lose weight.

Of course, for quite a few people, yes, including me, what is even more hateful is that exercise is impossible, and I will never want to exercise in my life. Therefore, in addition to paying high IQ tax for diet pills, I have been trying to explore all the "crooked ways" that may be related to "slimming".

Among these "crooked ways", ketogenic diet has become one of the theories that many people admire.

Of course, many ketologists have always stressed that the theory and practice of ketogenic diet is one of the effective diets recognized by medicine, but there is the first misunderstanding here. Ketogenic diet is indeed used as a medical means, but people are used to treat epilepsy! It really works. The incidence of epilepsy has dropped significantly, which may be able to deal with the problem of hyperglycemia. However, it is in this process that the researchers found that the patient's weight dropped significantly, so there are always crazy people willing to explore.

I don't know, but it's still shocking to find that the theory of promoting ketogenesis thinks that the culprit of obesity has suddenly changed from the traditional fat to various carbohydrates, and sweet sugar has fallen out of favor among ketogenic lovers in an instant, and it has been almost completely banned.

Of course, I'm not going to go into the mechanism of ketone production today. The overwhelming variety of "popular science articles" in search engines has been dazzling enough for several days. So in the spirit of tasting all kinds of herbs-in fact, it's mainly because I'm lazy and can't exercise all the time-I decided to try it myself and see the effect without watching advertisements.

Of course, I can't understand the complicated theoretical basis, but I know a little about the operation method, which is to greatly reduce the intake of carbohydrates and then increase the proportion of fat intake as much as possible.

Therefore, after learning this theory, a friend immediately calculated the calories carefully from the primitive, hoping to boil cabbage with water every day and said with a smile, "This is easy, just let go of eating meat." In a sense, he is right, but to be honest, it is not so easy to achieve the state of ketogenic diet after strictly observing the ketogenic diet.

Sugar, after being regarded as a demon by ketogenic people, is still inadvertently and quietly mixed into our diet.

First of all, the most basic thing is that most ketogenic people will not make mistakes again, that is, most vegetables and almost all fruits, but there are still a few ketogenic people who seriously ignore this matter. Strictly speaking, according to the ketogenic theory, many people require that the daily intake of carbohydrates should not exceed 20g. So what is this concept? The sugar content of a slightly larger apple is about 30g. A piece of watermelon after a meal may lead to excessive carbohydrate intake today.

Ketosis experts who practice ketogenic diet have long known that it should be insulated from rice flour, potato cakes, sweets, milk tea and ice cream, but it is still a thorny problem to deal with the sugar in vegetables and fruits seriously.

Of course, abstaining from fruits and a considerable number of vegetables is only the first step in the ketogenic practice. After doing this, many ketologists mistakenly think that they can start eating, and sausages, chicken chops, fish and shrimp will change from the original "smell" to the joy of eating at once. Note, however, that many street sausages are not made entirely of meat. In order to ensure the taste, a certain amount of starch is often added as a blend. Two-dollar sausage may be the chief culprit leading to the failure of ketone production, and the noodle coating on fried food is completely high-carbon water, so even if you know that you can let go of eating meat, you can only sigh at the dazzling array of fried food.

So at this point, please remember that the old man at KFC has absolutely no goodwill. He wrapped delicious chicken in layers of carbohydrate. The purpose of delicious chicken is to let us accidentally fall into the high-carbon trap. Therefore, please seriously delete Grandpa Ken from the friends list. After all, this bad old man is really bad.

However, not only the face clothes visible to the naked eye, but also many dishes are quietly hiding carbohydrates, so what we need to do next is seasoning.

At this point, I am in pain. Being in Shanghai, in the process of cooking, I will soon understand the love of many Shanghainese for sugar. Almost all the food with mouth-watering thick oil red sauce is fried in "sugar color" to create a bright and attractive color, such as thick braised pork, sweet and sour pork ribs, braised fish and so on. In addition to the sweet greasy fat, it is the sugar swallowed with the oil flowing out of the corners of the mouth. It is not only braised, but also many dishes cooked in the north like to "thicken", that is, a spoonful of thickened juice.

However, what is even more frightening is that it is not only sugar that can be seen by the naked eye as seasoning, but also a certain amount of carbohydrate in soy sauce and balsamic vinegar used for seasoning. Maybe a friend will ask, no one drinks vinegar as water every day, and only a little seasoning soy sauce is used. Who can eat a few grams of sugar?

But my friends, I'm not the one who has to haggle over every ounce. On that day, the carbohydrate was only 20g. Many of our condiments contain carbonated water, and we accidentally ingested carbonated water. Pile it up, 20g will pass easily. So even if it's only a little bit, we still have to dig, and we still have to dig. After all, the enemy is so cunning that we must convince ourselves that we cannot relax for a moment.

However, life without condiments seems to have lost its luster, so saying so much is not to tell people not to eat, but to calculate as much as possible, to control it within our control, and not to ignore it completely.

Having said that, I have to mention all kinds of dairy products. Yes, we know that pure milk does not contain sugar, and yogurt made from unsweetened milk does not contain sugar, but don't forget that lactose is also sugar. The lactose content in milk is slightly lower than 5%, and yogurt is higher, that is to say, the sugar content of each small box of 250ml milk is about 12g. For me, before ketones were produced,

Although all kinds of dairy products seem really harmless to people and animals, what can be done? Give it up.

In addition, for foods such as cream and cheese, be sure to keep your eyes open and avoid adding sugar to taste. But to tell you the truth, pure sugar-free cream and cheese, butter sticks and the like are really complicated to eat.

On the whole, the ketogenic diet theory looks really attractive. As long as you ensure low-carbon water, you can eat it anytime and anywhere. However, on the road of low-carbon water, many ketologists stumble. Looking up a lot of information and practicing as much as possible, I found that ketogenic diet can actually bring considerable pain.

First of all, the initial hypoglycemia, in China diet, which is mainly composed of various carbohydrates, will be completely quit at once, which will inevitably produce a certain degree of hypoglycemia symptoms. Secondly, due to insufficient sugar intake, people are less likely to feel satisfied with their appetite because of food, and too much fat can easily make people feel very tired at once. Really: "I ate two bites and even vomited my stomach."

In addition, in the daily diet, counting sugar is really tiring. Besides pure fat and protein, such as pig liver and other internal organs, we must strictly control the food intake. Small pills of various supplements are not ordered every day, so it's no trouble. Even vitamin supplements in colorful bottles are a big expense.

Then I will share my personal ketogenic results of eating boiled eggs, white beans and white cook the meat slices dipped in soy sauce almost every day for two weeks. My pants feel a little loose, and I lost 3kg overall.

But in any case, on the whole, the risk of making ketone may not be great, but it is laborious and costly. Friends who are planning or practicing, please think twice before you act.

I am a peacock, the kind who has tasted all kinds of herbs.

No matter how absurd and strange, everyone's life should have its own flavor.
