The keto diet can change your life!
In days past, people with epilepsy fasted to reduce their seizures. This was not a sustainable treatment, so experts searched for an alternative. They discovered that a diet high in healthy fats and low in carbs reduced seizures. This was because eating few carbs and more fat put the body into "ketosis," which is when the body burns fat instead of carbs as a fuel source. The diet was named the ketogenic - or keto - diet.
Today, countless people are adopting the keto diet for other benefits like higher energy levels and sharper mental clarity. Wondering how the diet works? This book covers the science, as well as what you can eat, what you should avoid eating, grocery shopping, and how to stay keto when you're going out to eat.
The first part of the book focuses on slow cooking and the keto diet. Slow cookers have been around for decades, but they're still very convenient and easy to use. If you want to eat more at home but don't have the time for a lot of hands-on cooking, a slow cooker is a great choice. The second part is about pressure cooking. These appliances look very similar to slow cookers, but they raise the boiling point of water and speed up cooking time.
Recipes include:
Breakfasts (like mason-jar omelets)Chicken dishes (like creamy paprika chicken)Beef and lamb (like cider-braised beef shank)Pork (like BBQ pork)Seafood (like salmon)Vegetarian meals (like eggplant parmesan)Sides and snacks (like dips)Soups, stews, and chilis (like taco soup)Homemade keto condiments (like slow cooker BBQ sauce)Drinks (like pressure-cooker soda syrups)Desserts (like cheesecake)
The ketogenic diet is restrictive, so it can be challenging. With the right tools, like a slow cooker and pressure cooker, as well as great recipes, you can transition more easily and reap the benefits!
