MUMBAI: Celebrity diets often become a fad, and this can lead to disastrous consequences at times, as people tend to follow the same routines. It is very important to check if one’s body is fit for a particular diet or not.

Celebrities didn’t start the ketogenic, or keto, diet trend, but they’ve certainly added fuel to the already-hot fire. The high-fat, ultra-low-carb diet has gotten a boost by being endorsed by several famous faces. This diet has skyrocketed in popularity in recent years, altering the metabolism of the body, making it dependent on proteins and fats for its energy requirements, and ultimately resulting in weight loss.

Although the health effects of the diet are still being debated, a number of celebrities have been known to depend on it to achieve their respective body goals.

While we already know about Arjun Bijlani, Gurdeep Kohli, Vinit Kakar, and, more recently, Kinshuk Mahajan taking up the diet to shed those extra kilos, Pearl V Puri too has joined the bandwagon!

Well, it is a little difficult to keep a check on your weight and health when at the shoot, but actors know that they have to look great and present the best of themselves to win over the love of their fans.
