What is the Keto Diet? - Q&A with Laura Watson, RD

The Keto Diet is the latest low carb, high protein and high fat diet that claims to help you lose weight quickly by restricting carbohydrates. The Keto Diet is unconventional – what other diet allows you to eat as much cheese and butter as you want? While this diet may sound delicious, it isn’t a healthy or sustainable way of eating. If you’re on the Keto Diet long-term, you’re most likely missing out on proper nutrition.
