A new twist on keto: The fat-burning power of ketogenic eating meets the clean green benefits of a plant-centric plate


The keto craze is just getting warmed up. The ketogenic diet kick-starts your body's metabolism so it burns fat, instead of sugar, as its primary fuel. But most ketogenic plans are meat- and dairy-heavy, creating a host of other problems, especially for those who prefer plants at the center of the plate. Dr. Will Cole comes to the rescue with Ketotarian, which has all the fat-burning benefits without the antibiotics and hormones that are packed into most keto diets.

First developed for individuals suffering from seizures, keto diets have been shown to reduce inflammation and lower the risk of many chronic health problems including Alzheimer's and some cancers. Adding a plant-based twist, Ketotarian includes more than 75 recipes that are vegetarian, vegan, or pescatarian, offering a range of delicious and healthy choices for achieving weight loss, renewed health, robust energy, and better brain function.

Packed with expert tips, tricks, and advice for going--and staying--Ketotarian, including managing macronutrients, balancing electrolytes, and finding your carb sweet spot, this best-of-both-worlds program is a game-changer for anyone who wants to tame inflammation and achieve peak physical and mental performance. Let the Ketotarian revolution begin!

The forward of the book is filled with false assumptions and is very misleading in how they prevent data. They suggest that the rise in diagnosed autism and mental illness is because of.... diet? The author also misleadingly says that soy has estrogen in it, but fails to mention that it is the plant hormone and is not linked to a rise in estrogen in humans because, big surprise, it's a plant hormone. (He is trying to prey on some men's fears of being a "soy boy") These are big red flags for the legitimacy of the author as any sort of expert or dietician and I wouldn't waste your money.

This book goes a long way toward understanding that LCHF or a ketogenic lifestyle is not a one-size-fits-all approach. However ketogenic works for you it is being metabolically flexible that matters in terms of health
