What Does “Fat-Adapted” Mean?


Keyto offers many benefits that improve health in both the short and long-term.  During the first few weeks on the diet, your body will undergo changes in its preferred fuel source and how it functions down to the cellular level. As a result of these changes, you will experience decreased hunger, improved mental clarity, and weight loss. If you notice these effects and score great Keyto Levels, feel confident you’re on the right track!

The most profound benefits of the keto diet occur once you’ve become “fat-adapted.” They include continued weight loss, improvements in athletic performance, decreased inflammation, improved blood sugars and cholesterol, reductions in oxidative stress, and even changes in gene expression.  These benefits occur over a period of several weeks to months of following Keyto.  If you think about it, this is amazing given that you don’t require any supplements or medications to realize them!

As your body shifts to burning ketones for energy, different metabolic pathways up-regulate and become more efficient.  This time of transition and energetic flux is when you may experience the keto flu. Symptoms are usually self-limiting and last only a week or two. Luckily, you can also treat these symptoms by increasing your salt and water intake.
 
Once you have made the transition into ketosis, you start to enter the early stages of “fat-adaptation”.  This state is not binary, but a continuum of changes that improve over time.  Although it may take several months of ketosis to become fully fat-adapted, you will likely realize many of the benefits much sooner.

 

Just as with first getting into ketosis, don’t stress over “becoming fat-adapted”.  It’s not something you can control other than by following Keyto as guided by the Keyto Breath Sensor.  Trust the process, and you’ll be enjoying all the benefits of fat-adaptation soon enough!
