This is Atkins diet 2.0 … I was a long term follower back in the 90’s From: Af <[email protected]> on behalf of Travis Johnson <[email protected]> Reply-To: "[email protected]" <[email protected]> Date: Sunday, October 15, 2017 at 5:38 PM To: "[email protected]" <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [AFMUG] OT no carb My wife is a super healthy person... has always eaten healthy foods, exercises daily, and watches her calorie intake. She actually weighs 15 pounds less than she did when she graduated from high school. She recently discovered the "Keto" diet (which isn't really a diet, but it can be)... it's the idea of only 25g of carbs per day, and lots of fats and protein. She has started eating things she hasn't had for 20+ years (prime rib, hamburgers (no buns), butter, etc) and she says she has never felt better in her life. She still watches her calories (1,200 per day total for her)... but she has more energy, is happier and really enjoys what she eats. Here is the book she is using, that is honestly one of the best written books (on any subject) that I have ever seen... real world stuff, with lots of examples and real stories: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1628600160/ref=oh_aui_ search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1 The whole idea is that if your body doesn't have carbs to burn, it will burn fat for energy and then protein after that. It also makes your liver produce Ketones, which helps your body be more efficient. Travis *Gino A.
