Benefit 1 of the Keto Diet for Women – Lose Weight
I do not know any healthy fat woman, all obese people all increase their cardiovascular risk indexes, obese people have problems, they have problems because they accumulate their body fat just as they have it accumulated in the abdomen or hips, they also have it accumulated in the arteries of the heart or in the arteries of the brain, everywhere!
So, if you want to be healthy, you need to lose weight, it is not a question of aesthetics, it is a question of health. Nothing to do, all the studies show that to drop blood pressure if you are hypertensive, you must lose weight, for every 10 kilos you lose of weight you will lose 10 millimeters of mercury in all blood pressure, studies show that if you lose weight you are going to reduce total cholesterol, you are going to decrease ldl cholesterol bad cholesterol and you are going to increase good cholesterol which is hdl cholesterol, you can do all that.
But it is not only the benefit of losing weight, the keto studies in the long term, more than a year, they show the benefits, even if you have high cholesterol at the beginning, that the keto lifestyle it will lower your cholesterol, and only for that, all the cardiovascular risk factors also will decrease.

Benefit 2 of the Keto Diet for Women – Lose Localized Fat
The first important thing was to lose all that extra body fat, now the second most important thing is that you are going to lose your localized fat. Keto Diet is the only lifestyle where your localized fat, that fat that bothers you so much in your arms, back there, that fat that bothers everyone, the one that they say doesn’t come down with anything, abdominal fat, back fat, all that localized fat, the keto lifestyle is the only lifestyle that can get you down because for a number of reasons.
The first thing is that what increases fat is insulin, we are going to lower that insulin by 50 percent, and by lowering insulin by 50 percent we are going to increase glucagon, glucagon is the hormone that regulates insulin and when these two hormones are joined Insulin is low and glucagon is high, then the body is able to take up all the fat and begin to act, it is not that it ends it, because the fat does not run out, but those accumulations of fat that were as big as a balloon begin to decrease in size.
If you stay in that lifestyle, not a week and a month or two months if you stay here for a year 16, 18, 20, 24 months, you can achieve what no one in your life has done or have done with appliances or surgery or with nothing, and that is to lower cellulite, there is nothing to do you have to be committed if you want to lose that localized fat but, it is not a matter of a day, you already know it is a matter of staying in yourself committed to this style of life, now we go to the third benefit.

Benefit 3 of the Keto Diet in Women – Lower Infertility and Polycystic Ovary
The third benefit of the keto diet in women is super important today in this lifestyle that we have a modern world, and in this modern world we are always in a hurry and food has changed, now most of us eat carbohydrates, we activate insulin and we have a high risk of infertility, it was not like before; Like our mothers and grandmothers who were pregnant since their first intents and today, how we delay pregnancy, we are getting pregnant at 30, at 35, at 36. But after 17 years old fertility decreases, no, there is nothing to do and is also known that there is a syndrome that 10 percent of women have, is called polycystic ovary syndrome and it is related to the change in diet that is related to high levels of insulin and we are going to explain that of the Polycystic ovary syndrome and how it is the main cause of infertility today in women and is related to eating high in carbohydrates.
When you eat high carbohydrates, insulin is activated, by desperately activating insulin in a high way the insulin receptors in the cells begin to desensitize and a thing occurs called the loss of sensitivity or the decrease of sensitivity to insulin and that makes you send a signal to the brain to produce more insulin and you do something in your body called hyperinsulinism and it is this phenomenon that leads to accelerated production of male hormones, so in addition, it will be inflammation and all that produces a syndrome that is due to the increase of insulin and androgens called polycystic ovary syndrome.
What happens when this syndrome occurs? women begin to stop having their period because estrogens and progesterone damage the entire menstrual cycle, the increase in androgens makes the entire menstrual cycle destabilize and women do not ovulate so the first thing that happens is that they do not ovulate, that is, they cannot generate an egg so that it is later fertilized by a sperm, in other words, they are infertile and in addition to that, due to the increase in androgens they will have dysmenorrhea or begin to lose their menstruation, or they begin to have problems such as having excess hair is called hirsutism and with all this, they already have big problems this is a problem especially for women who eat high carbohydrates.
And nowadays gynecologists recommend you to be keto (Source). If you want to return to have a perfect menstrual cycle, consider the keto lifestyle as a healthy option.
In addition to this, if you want to begin to decrease insulin levels and increase sensitivity to it, decrease insulin concentrations decrease androgen concentrations only eating low in carbohydrates and high in fat it has been seen that when you are keto for an equal period or older than 6, 8 or 10 months, you can reduce polycystic ovary syndrome and return to being a woman completely, fertile so that no one comes near you because you are going to have children so that is one of the benefits here.

5 Benefit of the Keto Diet for Women – Cardiovascular Risk Reduction
We start with this fifth beautiful benefit, which, on what we already mentioned about improving your hormones also reduces all cardiovascular risk factors, we have to emphasize this as a special benefit, which lowers cholesterol and helps lower triglycerides, improves your function cardiovascular, clean your arteries will leave you perfect.
“The SKMD is safe, an effective way of losing weight, promoting non-atherogenic lipid profiles, lowering blood pressure and improving fasting blood glucose levels. Future research should include a larger sample size, a longer term use and a comparison with other ketogenic diets.” (Source)
in addition to that we will already mention the sixth benefit that has to do with your brain health.
6 Benefit of the Keto Diet for Women – Brain Health
This benefit has to do with your brain health, because when you eat carbohydrates you activate insulin. The carbohydrates today are seen as the main engine or energy source for your brain, but it turns out that they have a problem because they cause inflammation, and this is because, yes, they are energy, but they are a lightning-fast energy so every time you activate it as quickly as it burns you in a process of silent inflammation that after 40 or 50 years begins to, added with the lack of oxygen, produce more free radicals and those free oxygen radicals, or superoxide begin to oxidize your brain and after a certain time you begin to suffer certain symptoms such as migraines for example, because migraines are closely related to eating sugary food chocolate, with wine and other things full of carbohydrates.
In addition, with a high consumption of sugars, it is more likely to have degenerative diseases of your brain such as Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, etc. we will expand on these topics in another post. But here we are going to touch on the subject specifically of migraine, the studies today on migraine indicate that neurologists are sending a diet that is low in carbohydrates so that you get rid of that headache, because it is a disease in which there are women who have Headaches that last 8 days 10 days and with the keto lifestyle can really go away (source). That is a spectacular benefit, what if from today you who suffer from migraines start to remove carbohydrates from your diet and lower those insulin levels and reduce inflammation and that leads you to have a perfect brain, a brain that works and feeds on ketone bodies, ketone bodies are three times more powerful as fuel and arguably zero inflammatory so starting today start with this sixth benefit.
7 Benefit of the Keto Diet for Women – Brain Health
And to finish the seventh benefit has to do with the studies that dermatologists show regarding acne because what has been seen that insulin is an anabolic hormone, when you eat fat from food with active carbohydrates, insulin is activated, and with insulin the fat you eat begins to accumulate, not only as abdominal fat or in the hips but also on your face and acne begins to accumulate.
Today many of the studies in dermatology show that to have clean, dry, healthy and oily skin and with less acne you can start a Keto lifestyle (https://www.karger.com/Article/Abstract/336404). Now, consider that at first the first fifteen or twenty days the acne may still be there but then you will begin to improve, you will be perfect.
