ketosis and metabolic syndrome

Ketosis: Ketosis is a metabolic state where the body primarily relies on fat as its main source of energy rather than carbohydrates. This occurs when the body doesn't have enough glucose to meet its energy needs, causing it to break down fat and produce ketones for fuel. Metabolic Syndrome: Metabolic syndrome refers to a cluster of conditions that occur together, increasing the risk of developing heart disease, stroke, and type 2 diabetes. It includes obesity, high blood pressure, high blood sugar levels, abnormal cholesterol levels, and insulin resistance. This syndrome is typically linked to unhealthy lifestyles, such as poor diet, lack of exercise, and excess body fat.
