The Keto and Collagen Guide: Everything You Need to Know About This Essential Protein
Although collagen is a protein, it does not have the same properties as other more commonly known proteins (e.g., whey, casein, meat, and fish).

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. Just thinking about preparing meals in a new way, on a new schedule, with new ingredients consumes so much energy and time that eating becomes a chore.

Keto Matcha Roll Cake

I think it's best when served the same day though. Just be cautious not to ...

The Ketogenic Mediterranean Diet: Optimal Health and Weight Loss
The Mediterranean diet is widely recognized as being one of the best diets for weight loss and overall health. When compared to a typical western diet filled with processed foods, this plant-based diet is a safe, effective, and reliable bet. However, conservative approaches typically yield moderate results. In contrast, radically unconventional diets have a greater potential to make significant changes — changes that may come with an increased health risk for some. The keto diet is the ...
