In recent years, the ketogenic (keto) diet has gained widespread recognition not just among fitness enthusiasts and those seeking weight loss solutions, but also among those who are keen to optimize overall health. This high-fat, low-carb nutritional approach is hailed for its potential benefits ranging from improved cognitive function to stable energy levels. However, an area that remains less explored, but equally paramount, is the introduction of keto meal planning in preschools.
