A Comprehensive Review on Keto Diet on Management of Type 2 Diabetes and Obesity

Abstract

Type 2 diabetes and obesity are health issues affecting millions of people worldwide. Lately there has been increasing interest in the ketogenic diet, a low carbohydrate, high fat eating plan as a solution for managing these conditions. Research indicates that the keto diet can enhance insulin sensitivity and lower blood sugar levels both of which play roles in the development and control of type 2 diabetes. By limiting carbohydrate intake this diet prompts the body to utilize fat as its source of energy resulting in weight loss and improved regulation of blood sugar levels. Apart from its impact on blood sugar and weight reduction there are indications that the keto diet may offer health advantages well. Studies suggest that it could potentially improve profile, reduce inflammation and even exhibit tumour properties. However, concerns remain regarding the long-term safety and sustainability of following this approach. Overall, the keto diet shows promise as a therapy for type 2 diabetes and obesity; however more research is necessary to comprehend its benefits and risks. It is important to determine the dietary macronutrient composition and duration of treatment, for different populations.
