Read More »The keto diet may help you lose weight, however, it turns out that there may be another reason to hop onto the food-related trend. When Medical News Today recently took a look at various diets and broke down how effective they are when it comes to fighting aging, they found that the keto diet may have some intriguing and promising benefits when it comes to keeping you healthier for longer. Pointing to two studies from 2017, Medical News Today noted that both "reported that a low carbohydrate, low protein ketogenic diet increased the average lifespan of mice and improved the animals' health in old age." The first study, which was published in the Cell Metabolism journal, found "that long-term exposure to a ketogenic diet, fed every other week starting in middle age, reduces midlife mortality and preserves memory in aging … mice." In the second study, which also appeared in Cell Metabolism, researchers found that the keto diet not only "extends longevity," but also preserves "[m]otor function, memory, and muscle mass" in the animals. Obviously, that's great for mice, but what about us? The researchers claim "that the animal findings are 'highly suggestive' that ketones could have anti-aging properties," according to Medical News Today.

Losing central fat (belly fat) is one of the many benefits of a well-formulated ketogenic diet. However, where we store fat and where we lose fat in one area compared to other areas on our body is partially dependent on genetics. Another factor in our appearance after weight loss is how quickly our abdominal muscles shorten following the loss of internal (aka visceral) fat. For example, if you lose 6 inches off your waist, your abdominal muscles will need to shorten by a few inches. This is not done by contracting—they actually need to get physically shorter at rest, and this takes 6–12 months to occur by natural processes. In the meantime, your belly looks soft. Bottom line: it takes a bit of patience to lose fat and then see the full benefits that we expect.
