Abstract

Ketogena dieta postaja vse bolj priljubljena in splošno uporabljana za zniževanje telesne mase in doseganje želenih rezultatov. Sprva je bila uporabljena v zdravstvene namene, predvsem za zdravljenje trdovratne epilepsije, vendar se je zaradi učinkovitosti izkoriščanja lastne maščobe kot vira energije razširila. Gre za način prehranjevanja z zelo visokim vnosom maščob, primernim vnosom beljakovin (glede na naše potrebe) in vnosom ogljikovih hidratov, ki ne presega 10 %. Ta način prehranjevanja je v popolnem nasprotju s priporočili za zdravo uravnoteženo prehrano, vendar zagotavlja, da naše telo spremeni presnovo in za energijo začne izkoriščati maščobo namesto ogljikovih hidratov. S tem v jetrih nastajajo ketonska telesa, nosilci energije, ki jih celice izven jeter sprejmejo in izkoristijo kot alternativni vir energije. Ogljikovi hidrati predstavljajo hiter in enostaven vir energije, ki jo naše telo zelo rado izkorišča. Ketonska dieta spremeni presnovo našega organizma, z le-to izkoriščamo obrambni mehanizem, ta začne delovati v primeru stradanja, zato smo mnenja, da bi se za to dieto odločali le posamezniki po posvetu s strokovnjakom. Ker se zanjo odloča vedno več ljudi, smo se odločili raziskati princip delovanja, rezultate raziskav in najpogostejše napake ljudi, ki so na tej dieti. Poglobili smo se v možne negativne stranske učinke, s katerimi se lahko srečamo, saj so nam pri večini diet zamolčani, priložili pa smo tudi primer jedilnika s ketogenim načinom prehranjevanja.

Secondary title: Traps of ketogenic diet
Secondary abstract: The ketogenic diet is becoming increasingly popular. It is mainly used to decrease body mass and achieve the desired result(s) instantly. The diet was originally created for medicinal purposes and used as a treatment for children with epileptic seizures, but began to spread quickly because of its efficient way of using the body’s own fats as an alternative source of energy. The ketogenic diet is a high-fat diet that requires a sufficient protein intake, but also focuses on an insufficient intake of carbohydrates (up to 10 %), which our metabolism requires in order to function properly. These recommendations represent the very opposite of what a healthy and balanced diet should be, but the ketogenic diet guarantees a change in our metabolic system, ultimately making the body use fats, instead of carbohydrates, as the main energy source. When that happens, ketone bodies, energy carriers, start forming in the liver and are then transferred into cells outside the liver, which end up using the bodies as an alternative source of energy. The ketogenic diet alters our metabolism in such a way that it begins to use fats instead of carbohydrates, which essentially means that we are taking advantage of the protective mechanisms of our body that naturally occur in the process of starvation. The people who decide to follow this diet should therefore consult a professional nutritionist before incorporating the diet into their lives. Since the ketogenic diet is quickly gaining in popularity, the thesis attempts to give insight into the way the diet works and explores the most common mistakes people make. Additionally, the thesis presents the results of different studies, while also exploring the possible negative side effects, which are rarely explained, or even mentioned, when it comes to most diets. Lastly, the thesis proposes a weekly meal plan that is suitable for anyone who decides to follow the ketogenic diet.
