Recently, there have been followed systems and programs food some of which are beneficial for health and some of them are unhealthy systems. The diet is one of the most controversial issues. The aim of this study is investigated the effect of high fat Ketogenic Diet (HFKD) in weight reduction compared to the low-fat diet (LFD) among Saudi overweight and obese women. A randomized acute controlled trial of twenty-eight healthy overweight or obese women in Saudi Arabia, aged between 18 and 40 with a body mass index between 25 and 34.5 kg m2 and fat parentage above 30% . The participants have followed ether HFKD or LFD for 12 weeks. Our primary outcome of this study to investigated the effective diets HFKD and LFD on reduction of body weight, the percentage of body fat, The secondary outcomes have evaluated at the percentage of body fat, blood glucose, lipid profile.
