Nutritional ketosis for weight management and reversal of metabolic syndrome
Open accessAbstract
Purpose of review The goal of this paper is to review current literature on nutritional ketosis within the context of weight management and metabolic syndrome, namely, insulin resistance, lipid profile, cardiovascular disease risk, and development of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. We provide background on the mechanism of ketogenesis and describe nutritional ketosis.Recent findings Nutritional ketosis has been found to improve metabolic and inflammatory markers, including lipids, HbA1c, high-sensitivity CRP, fasting insulin and glucose levels, and aid in weight management. We discuss these findings and elaborate on potential mechanisms of ketones for promoting weight loss, decreasing hunger, and increasing satiety. Humans have evolved with the capacity for metabolic flexibility and the ability to use ketones for fuel. During states of low dietary carbohydrate intake, insulin levels remain low and ketogenesis takes place. These conditions promote breakdown of excess fat stores, sparing of lean muscle, and improvement in insulin sensitivity.

The mechanism for weight loss of ketogenic diets is mainly associated with reducing insulin levels, which promotes redirecting lipid metabolism from synthesis and storage toward breakdown and oxidation, consequently inducing nutritional ketosis.
“Its mechanism for weight loss is mainly associated with reducing insulin levels, which promotes redirecting lipid metabolism from synthesis and storage toward breakdown and oxidation, consequently inducing nutritional ketosis, mimicking metabolic starvation in the body to utilize ketone bodies as alternative energy sources [15].”
Humans can survive and arguably thrive on low-carbohydrate ketogenic diets.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
