Why do I need fat to stay in ketosis?

Adequate dietary fat is essential on the keto diet to prevent constant hunger, maintain satisfaction, and facilitate longer fasting periods. Without enough fat, weight loss may continue even after reaching goals. Focus on consuming the right types of fats to ensure intake of fat-soluble vitamins and essential fatty acids. Maintain a proper ratio of protein to fat and avoid low-fat high-protein foods, which can be detrimental to liver and kidney health. Remember, while fat plays a crucial role, reducing carbs is what triggers ketosis.
