Ketosis: Ketosis is a metabolic state in which the body uses fat as the primary source of energy due to inadequate carbohydrate availability. Fatty acids are converted into ketone bodies in the liver, which serve as an alternative fuel for the brain and muscles. Nutritional ketosis differs from diabetic ketoacidosis and is generally considered safe under controlled dietary conditions. Ergogenic aids: Ergogenic aids are substances, devices, or practices that improve physical performance, endurance, recovery, or strength. They include nutritional supplements such as creatine, caffeine, sports drinks, and protein supplements, as well as physiological and mechanical methods. Their effectiveness and safety vary depending on the type and dosage. Saponins: Saponins are naturally occurring glycosides present in legumes, soybeans, oats, and herbs. They possess cholesterol-lowering, antioxidant, antimicrobial, and immune-modulating properties. However, excessive intake may reduce nutrient absorption by interacting with minerals and proteins. Pre-eclampsia: Pre-eclampsia is a pregnancy-related disorder characterized by hypertension and proteinuria after 20 weeks of gestation. It is associated with impaired placental function and can lead to maternal and fetal complications if untreated. Adequate antenatal care and nutritional management are essential. Functional foods: Functional foods are foods that provide health benefits beyond basic nutrition due to the presence of bioactive compounds. Examples include probiotic yogurt, omega-3 enriched eggs, fortified milk, and oat bran. They help reduce the risk of chronic diseases and promote overall health. Essential fatty acids: Essential fatty acids are polyunsaturated fatty acids that cannot be synthesized by the human body and must be obtained from
