Ketones And The Brain: The Unique Benefits of Keto

Ketones And The Brain: The Unique Benefits of Keto

The ketogenic diet has many unique benefits that no other diet can replicate, and they are probably not what you think they are. Many myths have been circulating the internet about why the ketogenic diet provides such incredible results. Some scientists say that the magic effects of keto are due to how it reduces insulin levels, freeing fat from fat cells and improves brain function. Others say that the ketogenic diet has a significant metabolic advantage, which leads to more calories burned ...

The 10 Best Keto Pizza Recipes

The 10 Best Keto Pizza Recipes

Pizza is one of the most widely consumed foods in westernized countries — especially in the United States. In fact, pizza is the 5th most common calorie source for all Americans ages 2 and up, making up an average of around 98 calories per day of the American diet.

Personal Pan Pizza Dip

Personal Pan Pizza Dip

While searching for some new and creative ideas to be keto during the Super Bowl, I came across keto fat bomb Pizza Dip. Usually they're served in a large casserole dish, but I thought the idea of having a personal pan pizza dip was really awesome. That way, you don't have to put up with the double-dippers (you know who they are) and can portion out servings easily. Still being able to track your macros while having a great party is always something that's a plus in my book. But, if you're so ...

Toasted Coconut Lemon Squares

Toasted Coconut Lemon Squares

Summer is in full swing, for me anyway, and there are very few recipes that I am willing to crank up my oven and sweat it out just for something sweet. These keto fat bomb lemon squares are one of those recipes. Not just because lemon squares (aka lemon bars) are a beloved dessert staple that has transcended time and potlucks everywhere, but because these are Toasted Coconut Lemon Squares and everyone knows that the sweet and salty crunch of coconut makes everything better.

Coconut Cream Yogurt

Coconut Cream Yogurt

Making your own yogurt might seem like a weird idea at first, but it's pretty simple and it's almost all hands off. We're going to culture the coconut milk in the oven using the light of the oven and the contents of probiotic capsules. You want your coconut milk to culture in the 110F - 115F range. We'll achieve this by leaving just the light of the oven on and keeping the door completely closed. Don't open it during the culture period! You may also want to invest in an oven thermometer so you ...

Low Carb Macadamia Nut Brownies

Low Carb Macadamia Nut Brownies

I've been making so many sweets lately that I had to take a bit of a break and allow the leftovers to be eaten before making more. Being on a keto diet, it's hard for me to keep eating sweets, even if they are low carb, because I find my cravings start to come back after I eat them. Low and behold, everything is gone and I wanted to make something I haven't done in a while. I settled on brownies because I haven't really gotten around to making a cake, and I have only been making cookies ...

Keto Diet vs. Atkins Diet: What’s the Difference?

Keto Diet vs. Atkins Diet: What’s the Difference?

The ketogenic diet and the Atkins diet have both helped thousands of people achieve incredible fat loss results and improve health. However, there is much controversy surrounding which approach is best for weight loss, how healthy they are, and how they work. Both diets focus on restricting carbs to lose fat, but the Atkins diet approaches this from a different angle than the keto diet. The hallmark (and benchmark) of the keto diet is sustaining nutritional ketosis, while the Atkins diet ...

Obesity is a rising problem that is increasing on a yearly basis all over the world.

Shrimp Salad with Hot Bacon Dressing

Shrimp Salad with Hot Bacon Dressing

I have had my fair share of salads this year and I figured it is time to change it up a bit. I made this salad with hot shrimp and a hot dressing.
