Now, studies are being done for its possibility to reverse PCOS, acne, diabetes, and other conditions associated with insulin resistance. In this article, we will talk about the pcos and keto diet connection. The Keto diet is different from a customary carb-rich diet. This diet has moderate protein, is low in carbs, and is high in fat. The body will not use glucose to produce energy, and restricted carb intake will make the body run on fat. The human body can use fat and not glucose for energy.

While glucose is a fast-digesting energy source, it’s needy. When glucose runs low, the body gives in to its desire for more sugar. What does a body that is keto-adapted do? It will use the fat from…
