People are fat because they eat a plant-based (i.e. standard American) diet.

Plant foods are very fattening to humans because they are starvation foods. They signal to the body you are struggling to find food so your body downregulates metabolism and stores as much fat as possible.

If you want to be lean you have to eat mostly animal foods. Eggs, meat, and dairy are all great for burning fat and building muscle.

Keto increases basal metabolism by as much as climbing the stairs of the Burj Khalifa every day.

Keto also results in higher muscle mass and lower body fat at the same weight.

So keto not only causes weight loss it causes fat loss in particular while preserving muscle. Not to mention how delicious and satisfying it is to eat as much bacon, eggs, butter, steak, cheese, and cream as you want.
