since I always see the same questions around on where to get cheap almond flour, or what's the lowest carb option for chocolate and so on I compiled a list of my top 10 essentials if it can help :) Watch out for the cheapest / lower carb options for: almond & coconut flour (and where to find the...

meat? there isn't meat? technically not even that much starch or ingredients since it's cheese, celeriac and swede? are we talking about the same recipe?

I tried cauliflower last year and then mashing swede for the top of sheperds pie but personally I find that mixng swede and celeriac gives the best potato like flavour! celeriac is 2.2g carbs war and swede less than 5 so well low carb to make! This i made with more than a kilo of both combined...

but... those statements are wrong.... gluconeogenesis is always running and up when we are in ketosis, it will turn protein in glucose always, that priority is on always for the organs that do not run on ketones (amongst which is the liver itself). And you can notoriously get out of ketosis for...

when I'm intermittent fasting and hold for over 20 hours I get 4/4.1, i got to the 3 range when I was fansting for 2/3 days, in my opinon not worth it... but bugs me cause my husband is keto too now, totally healthy though and no underlyning conditions, he doesn't even intermittent fasts... he...

Ok that's consoling to hear, i remmber at some point fasting for 3 days I got my sugar down to 3.2 (enough for the blood meter to light up as in emergency mode) so maybe it would've been closer to 1 there... but other than that I do nto fast anymore for the sake of it, it migth drive me to binge...

i never even got close to a ratio of 1... today was a lucky day and my BS was 4.1 and ketones were 1.5, still a ratio of 2.7 seems like ketosis did help with a lot of things, but I will never get proper values for stuff related to blood sugar and insulin after getting so close to diabetes with...

I watched this and was jumping every 2 seconds for doctors that I knew, then I had Prof Tim Noakes retweet my comment on it and went a bit fangirl, i'll admit :) that being said, I watched the documentary and one thing that I found interesting enough to make a video review about it...

I managed to get these down to 2g carbs per bun These are basically chocolate and orange flavoured Recipe: http://po.st/ketocrossbuns

that's the difference though: 5g of sugar are just 5 grams of carbs. that's it. 5grams of yacon syrup are 1.5g sugar (yacon syrup is mainly fibre, inulin for 60%, rest is carbs, 24% is sugar) And if you watch glucose spikes, the fact that it comes with inulin and hence has a lower GI than even...

technically yes, but I was never comfortable with it, so I am glad I managed to find a way where, even if not all of it is consumed, this is low glycemic and keto-friendly

I made sure to do this just once I found something that would activate the yeast and rise the dough without it having to be sugar/honey. It worked with yacon Syrup, which technically is 24g sugar (fructose) but having inulin it also has a GI of 1 so seemed like the best option with the least...

Oh it's not trivial for me I just switched yogurt for a .2g difference carbs per 100g so I am careful about this, that's why I stopped buying Almond Breeze which used to be 0.5g per 100ml for Alpro which for wholebe bean soya unsweetened and almond unsweetened was updated to 0.1 last year and...

I use soy or almond milk, unsweetened ones are higher in protein and nil in carbs. but also, reducing the carbs, even if it means less protein in the morning, mean you can have a couple bites more of cheese or anything else protein-y later in the day?

I was sent some when they lanunched, but to be honest they are so expensive for what they are. I suspect egg white beaten with a bit of psyllium husk 9which they use themselves), maybe a bit of oat fibre for good measure,and you could make them yourself. they also don't have worked in flavour...

The Art and Science of Low Carb Living by Phinney and Volek is basically the biology-bible of low carb eating

you did so amazing, and let me tell you, your family is so lucky to have you care and take care of yourself this way. I am saying this cause my mother (type2 since 1995) has such bad retinopathy that has now basically gone blind. 2 years ago I went back living with her trying to help her, turn...

it's literally my username, keto in the uk, and I hear you! I started cooking properly from scratch with going low carb, hence why I started being fascinated with GBBO, but last year I was like "right, either I do something to make up for it, or i'm going to cheat" :P

I was going to say that myself. made custard by chance the other day, literally double cream, sweetener and egg yolks, and it turned sooooo thick I don't get why people use cornstarch at all!

Hello there! I can't believe I didn't realise this community existed before! I'm on the FB page but then realised all the acion was somehwere else: here! I love the website, it got me started to understand blood glucose values, blood plasma, HbA1c, seriously, I feel like I know about biology...
