They'll say, "Doctor, my weight is normal, so why is my belly sticking out?" or "I've lost weight, but my body shape hasn't changed."

When I meet patients in the clinic, one of the most common questions I hear is about diets. These days, with so much information available online, many people cautiously ask, 'Doctor, I've heard that low-carb high-fat diets are good. Should I try the ketogenic diet?'
