As usual, there are a whole host of diets to try at the beginning of each new year. And for some, finding the right one can be difficult. Express.co.uk spoke to Hannah Sutter, Keto expert and founder of www.naturalketosis.co.uk who explained what the Keto Diet was, her top tips for anyone looking to lose a little bit of weight by changing their diet.

“Unlike a calorie-controlled diet it is important that once you get into Ketosis you stay Ketogenic for at least a week in order to see and feel the benefits.”
