  • Video – mixing up 3 meals of ketofood

    I have this written up in text for on my Ketofood Preparation page, but I wanted to do a video showing the process. There’s a different video of measuring and mixing the dry ingredients.

  • Fixed the Ketofood recipe, added keto sample and preparation instructions

    I was looking at Ketofood in MyNetDiary and comparing it to the recipe and discovered that some of the information in the recipe is royally screwed up. The total carbs was listed as less than the fiber total. Yeah, that’s impossible. I did a ton of research and used the label information and USDA database…

  • I’ll give shipping Ketofood a shot

    So I was asked if I am shipping Ketofood. My stance up until now was that I wouldn’t and mainly because of the logistics of getting the oil to people. MCT oil is a rather specialized product that’s very difficult to find away from the Interwebs. MCT oil is also a critical component of ketosis.…

  • 1 month in 3 days doing Ketosis – Time for an update.

It’s the same as QuidNYCs for ongoing ketosis but with Canola oil instead of Olive, mostly because I have issues with the smell/flavor of Extra Virgin Olive Oil, you can see it here. The first tab is more of a general overview, you can…

  • Exercise whilst in ketosis, don’t drink it too fast

    I read a really interesting paper that gave some background on Inuit hunters and keto diets. One very interesting thing that stuck out near the end was the length of time required to adapt to ketosis and its effect exercise. The paper pegs the time needed to adapt to 2-3 or even 3-4 weeks. I…

  • Ketosis – the “cheat”; Raspberry Ketones are useless

    So first off I’d like to change my description of a Ketogenic diet. I have been referring to it as “The Nuclear Option” since it’s sort of a last-ditch final effort to lose weight. Over on a reddit thread there was a great write up about how when you force your body into ketosis, you are…

  • Ketogenic update: don’t eat carbohydrates

    Ok, so this is fairly obvious, talking about a ketogenic diet where you have to keep all carbohydrates below 30g/day, but you should not decide “hey, I’ve had a good 2 1/2 week run, I’ll go out to dinner with my wife to Texas Roadhouse and get the Cactus Blossom and some grilled chicken and…
