Answer:
“fat adapted” is the metabolic state your body is in once you've been in ketosis long enough that your body has efficiently transitioned from burning carbs/sugar for energy to burning fats from your food, body-generated fats, and your stored body-fat reserves for energy.

On a standard high - carbohydrate diet, the brain is critically dependent on glucose. So if you restrict carbohydrate in your diet (or you fast for more than a day), your body must initially break down protein from muscle for conversion into glucose. However, this response is only temporary because over time, the body converts to a special fuel, called ketones. Ketones are produced directly from fat and have the critical ability to cross the blood - brain barrier and nourish the brain. (Ketones may also have anti inflammatory, anti - aging, and anti canceractions, but that 's another story.)
