The essential Keto tools to help you stick to your high-fat, low-carb diet

This story is part of New Year, New You, everything you need to develop healthy habits that will last all the way through 2020 and beyond.

The ketogenic diet has become extremely popular over the last few years, as a way to lose weight and improve a number of health factors, such as cholesterol, blood pressure and blood sugar levels (at least in the short term; long-term studies are still pending). The premise of the eating plan is to enter a metabolic state called “ketosis” by reducing carb intake and greatly increasing fat consumption. When ketosis is achieved, your body gets energy from stored fat instead of glucose.

However, this low-carb, high-fat lifestyle isn’t always the easiest to adhere to, as many people are used to eating carb-heavy diets. Whether you’re thinking about trying a keto diet for yourself or have been eating this way for a while, there are a number of essential products that can help make adhering to a keto diet a little easier.
