Keto or Ketogenic Diet was primarily done to help reduce the frequency of epileptic seizures in children. But at present, it is presented as a form of weight-loss wonder but in reality, keto is a form of medical diet that has serious risks. Weight-loss diets often mean a low-carbohydrate-high-protein eating plan but a true ketogenic diet is different. Though keto has been tried for weight loss, only short-term keto diets have been studied and results have been mixed and no one knows for sure yet whether long-term keto diet is safe so it isn’t the kind of diet to try...

Study Suggests Keto Diets May Benefit Suffers of Super-refractory Status Epilepticus. Today, our article is focused around how a keto diet may help individuals suffering from a relatively rare form of epilepsy known as super-refractory status epilepticus or SRSE. Always severe and sometimes even fatal, SRSE is characterized by prolonged seizures. Medically induced comas are often used as a preventive measure to restrict further brain and body damage. As reported by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, more than five million people in the U.S. have a seizure disorder. More than one hundred and fifty thousand people in the U.S....

Understanding the Connection between Diabetic Test Strips and Ketones One of the most common complications for the diabetes patients is a very high ketone level in their bloodstream. If not treated on time, this may lead to a rather critical condition known as ketoacidosis. The build-up ketone within the human body is the result of insufficient insulin level to create energy for the body. It has been observed that people suffering from type 1 or advanced stages of type 2 diabetes have a high ketone level. Type 1 diabetic patients are at a greater risk, as far as diabetic ketoacidosis...

Can a Ketogenic Keto Diet Help Mild Alzheimer's Patients? Hello readers! Welcome back to our blog with yet another insightful discussion. Today, we will talk about the latest scientific study that offers a ray of hope for millions of people around the world diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease. Experts suggest that the human brain has a constant demand for fuel supply to feed the brain cells. However, in case of dementia patients, the brain faces extreme difficulty while burning glucose. This leads to sluggish activity of the brain, shrinkage of the brain, and even death of brain cells in the long...

Do Ketogenic Ketosis Diets Have Any Impact on Aging? It is a great pleasure for us to welcome you to the official blog of Just Fitter. Today we will discuss whether the consumption of ketogenic diets has any noticeable impact on the effects of aging. Ketogenic diets are low-carb and high-fat diets that force the body to burn fat instead of carbohydrates for energy though a metabolic state known as ketosis. In a study conducted recently by the Gladstone Institute researchers, it was unveiled that a ketogenic diet may not only help delay, but also reverse the aging effects.  The...

In school, we were taught that water is an inorganic, transparent, tasteless, odorless, and nearly colorless chemical substance which is made up of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. However, have you ever wondered why sometimes some waters are hard to wash in? Or notice that some waters leave spots or films of residue on your glass or even on your hands? This happens because of water hardness which refers to the amount of dissolved compounds of calcium and magnesium in water. Hard water is high in dissolved minerals, largely calcium and magnesium. Calcium reacts to soap which prevents soap...
