The Ketogenic Kitchen : Low carb. High fat. Extraordinary health

The first comprehensive ketogenic cookbook based on new research on nutritional approaches to the prevention and management of cancer—with over 250 recipes! "Kemp and Daly provide clear explanations and fantastic recipes delivered in a passionate and personal writing style. This book removes the difficulties and makes the integration of the ketogenic diet into one’s life a rich and enjoyable process."—Travis Christofferson, author of Tripping Over the Truth For decades, the ketogenic diet—which shifts the body’s metabolism from burning glucose to burning fat, lowering blood sugar and insulin and resulting in a metabolic state known as ketosis—has been used to successfully manage pediatric epilepsy. More recently, it has been used by the Paleo community as a weight loss strategy. Now research suggests that a ketogenic diet, in conjunction with conventional treatments, also offers new hope for those coping with cancer and other serious disease. With endorsements from leading researchers and oncologists, The Ketogenic Kitchen offers more than 250 recipes, as well as meal plans and comprehensive scientific information about the benefits of a ketogenic diet, with sensible advice to help readers through periods of illness, recovery, and treatment. This North American edition has been updated to include U.S. customary units of measure appearing side-by-side with metric measures. "An excellent resource. I’m sure it is going to help many, and I couldn’t recommend it more hardily."—Dr. Joseph Mercola
