New year, new dieting craze. The ketogenic diet is the latest in popular diets in the US. It shares many similarities with the Atkins diet; it’s low-to-no carbs, some protein, and a lot of delicious fat.
The keto diet isn’t exactly new. It’s been used to treat epilepsy since the 1920s, and it’s had promising outcomes from treating Type 2 Diabetes. However, epilepsy and diabetes aren’t the only reason people give the ketogenic diet a try. It’s also used as a diet for weight loss. The diet banishes most carbs, including fruit, and opts-in for fatty foods like avocados, salmon, eggs, cheese, butter, oil, and the holy grail of fatty meats — bacon.
Unfortunately, science has not yet proven the keto diet to be the miraculous cure to losing weight, that some kept devotees claim it to be. The more extreme a diet, the harder it is to adhere to, and though the diet may be beneficial to some, that does not mean it will work for all who give it a try.

The ketogenic diet is backed by good science. But findings support it as a treatment for epilepsy, not losing weight.

keto plus cycling only 5 miles a day made me lose 40 pounds in 4 months.. i think this is because keto makes you stop craving unhealthy foods and less appetite more energy clearer mind.. in this video its like they've never heard of ketosis you know it's real when you experience the keto flu and then it ends and you have more energy than before the keto flu also theres literally keto test strips…

People need to do gmo and preservative diets. So farm fresh eggs, from someone you know with chickens or from a farmers' market. Grass fed cowsmilk as local as you can get. Find out how easy it is to make cheese, sour cream, heavy cream, half and half, yogurt, whole milk, skim milk. Been trying to push my poor life in this direction but some o y'all are well off enough for this.
