A Comprehensive Guide To The Vegan Ketogenic Diet

A Comprehensive Guide To The Vegan Ketogenic Diet

Animal suffering, climate change, and health are three vitally important issues that can all be addressed with one solution — the vegan diet. At least, this is the idea that many health documentaries promote. The truth, however, is much more nuanced. Some may wonder if it is possible to follow a vegan keto diet. The short answer is, yes. From a health perspective, some people have much better health when they go low-carb and eat some animal products, while others feel much better on a ...

What Are Keto Fat Bombs – A Comprehensive Guide

What Are Keto Fat Bombs – A Comprehensive Guide

Most diets are not sustainable. Whether it is a vegan diet, low-fat diet, or low-calorie diet, we tend to revert back to the most convenient way of eating that we can find.

For example, you will start getting noticeable results on the ketogenic diet after about 3 weeks, but it may be too much of change that you won't make it that far. At ...

The same principle applies ...

There’s not a lot of prep time involved, you will just need to ensure the shrimp is thoroughly cooked before serving; it should be an orange color ...

What is Beta-Hydroxybutyrate (BHB) & Why It’s the Most Efficient Fuel

The body has a variety of fuel sources it can use, all with different benefits and downsides. Sugar, for example, is typically our primary energy source — not because it is the most efficient — but because it can be used rapidly by every cell in the body. Unfortunately, we sacrifice efficiency for speed when we burn sugar, which leads to the formation of potentially harmful molecules called free radicals. Conversely, when carb intake is limited, we began using more efficient fuel sources ...
