Question

the ketogenic diet significantly reduces which macronutrients?
multiple choice
carbohydrates
protein
fats
minerals

Explanation:

The ketogenic diet is a high - fat, adequate - protein, and very low - carbohydrate diet. Its main principle is to induce ketosis in the body by severely restricting carbohydrate intake. When carbohydrates are limited, the body turns to fat for energy production. Proteins are not the main macronutrient being reduced in a ketogenic diet (although they are controlled to some extent to prevent gluconeogenesis from protein). Fats are actually increased in a ketogenic diet. Minerals are micronutrients, not macronutrients.

Answer:

Carbohydrates
