Ketogenic diet is any diet that "forces" the body into a ketosis.
When you are in ketosis, your body use fat for energy, because of that you will lose fat easy!
To come into ketosis you must eat a lot of fat, enough protein and very little carbohydrates.
Ketosis is a normal metabolic process. When it doesn't have enough carbohydrates from food for your cells to burn for energy, it burns fat instead. As part of this process, it makes ketones.
The ketogenic diet works like any diet: limiting the number of calories you consume, creating a caloric deficit in which the body burns more energy than we consume food.
