Can keto diet help in extreme weight loss?

This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I am a 30-year-old male with 242 lbs of weight and 5.3 feet of height. I do not have any medical issues, but I look obese. I prefer the keto diet to reduce obesity because it contains my favorite foods. Please guide me.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

1) Never opt for a particular diet plan, especially by restricting certain nutrients.

2) Control your portion size in the diet.

3) Replace carbohydrates with seasonal vegetables and fruits.

4) Eat protein-rich foods like peanuts and fox nuts (lotus seeds).

I can suggest you better if I know your daily routine and eating habits.
