Whipped cream is a surprisingly satisfying guilty pleasure, but it doesn’t have to come with the guilt. Unfortunately, most of the recipes and canned products contain enough added sugar to slow your keto progress. Though these sugar-filled options make it seem like all whipped cream is unhealthy, this couldn't be further from the truth. In fact, by just whisking together three ingredients, you can make your own fluffy, airy, and flavorful whipped cream with a fraction of the carbs. This ...

How to Follow Keto Without a Gallbladder
Of the questions I am asked often, how to follow the ketogenic diet without a gallbladder is one of the most popular.

However, this is not true. You may need to make some adjustments to your keto diet and take some digestive health supplements at first, but you can still get all of the benefits of keto after you ...

50+ Healthy Keto Snacks to Help with Ketosis
One of the most satiating diets is the keto diet. Keto-friendly foods are typically so filling that keto dieters end up eating fewer calories — and, in many cases, fewer meals — throughout the day. This allows them to lose weight sustainably. However, just because you are following keto doesn’t mean that you are immune to hunger and afternoon energy crashes. If you’re not prepared, and the convenience of processed, carb-dense snacks beckons you, you may very well find yourself with a mouthful ...

Keto Sansrival
Sansrival is a Filipino classic - crispy, chewy, meringue layered with French buttercream and cashew nuts. Translates to, “without rival.” Aptly so, as this is hands down a crowd favorite. The original recipe calls for a dacquoise, a meringue made with nuts that when cooked long and slow yields a crispy wafer. The keto version, however, will not have the same texture. Instead it’s more sponge-y. Sugar’s hygroscopic, or moisture absorbing, nature lends to the crunch that sweeteners ...

Targeted Ketogenic Diet (TKD): An In-depth Look
The Targeted Ketogenic Diet (TKD), simply put, is a standard keto diet that is supplemented with carbohydrate intake around your workout times. That means any day you exercise, you will typically be consuming pre workout carbs. The TKD is meant to improve exercise performance for high-intensity workouts or extended bouts of activity. On the other hand, if you are sedentary or only do low-moderate intensity exercise, then the standard ketogenic diet is all you need. For more about targeted ...

What is the Keto Flu & How to Remedy It?
Adapting to the ketogenic diet can feel like the flu. Tiredness, fatigue, stomach pains, and dizziness are common symptoms that the ketogenic diet beginner can experience, but these symptoms don't come from a ketogenic virus or an infected mosketo (like “mosquito” — sorry, I couldn't resist). In fact, the symptoms for keto flu are not even caused by ketosis, ketogenesis, or the flu at all. The keto flu is caused by the body's response to carbohydrate restriction. Here's a quick video that ...
