Is OMAD Part of Keto or is Keto part of OMAD?

I have often heard people taking OMAD with Keto and termed it very effective. It has made me think whether these are two separate diets or are interwoven together.

Can somebody explain to me. I need elaborations. What do you say?
 
From what I understand they are separate types of diet which can be combined for a more effective and efficient rate of weight loss and overall healthiness. Ketogenic diet is focused mainly on eliminating sugars and carbohydrates and OMAD is focused on eating just once a day regardless of what you eat. From my experience, eating once a day has made keto seem a bit more possible for me or at least just lessening carbohydrates as much as possible. When I used to eat three meals a day I would worry about having to deal with the sacrifice thee times a day daily, but now that I'm just eating once a day it feels much less like an obstacle and the goal feels a lot more attainable so I imagine it's how people eventually figured to combine the two methods.
 
That is an excellent explanation, @Naomi , and I agree with what you are saying . One is a food plan (ketogenic) and the other is the timing of your food intake (OMAD).
The reason that they work so great together is that when you are on a ketogenic meal plan (low carb foods) then your body can switch over from burning sugar (which it gets from carbs) for fuel, and it can then burn body fat for fuel. When a person is burning sugar for fuel, the body only has a small supply, so we get hungry and need to re-fuel fairly often.
Once we are burning fat for fuel, our body has enough to supply us for days (if needed) so we stop having hunger pangs for food once the body switches over from one fuel to the other.
When we are only eating one meal a day, it is so much easier when your body is burning fat for fuel, and you do not get hungry every few hours. If you are eating mostly carbohydrate foods (bread, rice, sweets/sugar) then you will be hungry during the time you are fasting.

This is actually what I was worried about when I first started thinking of going on the OMAD diet and thankfully I did dive in and I learned that the feeling of hunger is different while on this diet compared to when you are eating three times a day. I used to imagine that I'd be starving by night time if I just ate one plate of food midday but eventually I found out that eating more throughout the day actually causes you to become more hungry later on and not the other way around. I am guessing this is what scares most people as well when first starting out.
 
They are definitely two different things. OMAD diet focus more on the time you should eat. It is all about choosing one window time for eating. While KETO is focus on the food you intake. To make it clear KETO is diet that allows you to lessen your carbo intake. They can do both if you like if it is well with you.
 
Yes,keto diet is absolutely about what you eat,the diet itself as in taking in low carbohydrate foods when OMAD as we know if eating once daily and I think combining the two is perfect for whoever needs a check on his or her weight.Well,for me I still prefer OMAD before it working perfectly for me than any other diet.
 
Keto is more about what you eat while OMAD is all about eating once in a day and at a particular time. I would say that they are different but best when it works hands in hand as it gives better results. People say that they do do keto while on OMAD.
 
Neither really has anything to do with one or the other, but they do supplement each other which is why a lot of people mention them together.

Going with a ketogenic diet actually makes eating only one meal a day much easier. If you’re on a ketogenic diet, it means that you’re consuming an extremely small amount of carbohydrates per day—talking like less than 20g. Instead of getting your energy from carbs, you’d be getting about 70% of your energy from fat, and about 20% from protein.

Now, the point of this extremely low carb, high fat diet is to put your body into a state of ketosis, which means that it begins using fat as its main source of energy as opposed to carbohydrates. The benefit of this is that you obviously stop storing fat, but the other benefit is why it goes well with OMAD.

The other benefit is that when you don’t consume carbohydrates, your blood sugar levels stay the same, as opposed to spiking and then dropping below average. When your blood sugar spikes and drops, you feel lethargic and hungry, and you feel the need to eat something. If your blood sugar never gets the chance to spike, then you’re going to feel full of energy as your body continues using your own fat for fuel, meaning it makes it easier to eat only once a day.

This is why they go so well together.

Yeah, Omad is all about the timing of what we eat. It has little to do with what we actually eat. However, being part of the forum has helped me to improve on things that I eat as well.

Am learning on the forum too. When I joined I never knew many things but now am conversant. I still need tuition on what to eat or not.

When it comes to what you should be eating, I feel that you should focus on reading more of the articles on the forums as this is the way to learn more. However, always try to avoid food that has more calories as you can't be eating things that you are trying to burn.
