Ketogenic diet is effective for short-term weight loss in obese individuals by shifting energy metabolism to ketone bodies.

To lose weight using a ketogenic diet, restrict carbohydrates to under 50 grams per day while consuming high fat and adequate protein. This shifts your body to burn ketones for energy. Be aware that strict versions can be hard to taste and sustain long-term, so consider phased approaches like VLCKD with careful monitoring.
