A Goop Book Club Pick A new twist on keto: The fat-burning power of ketogenic eating meets the clean green benefits of a plant-centric plate The keto craze is just getting warmed up. The ketogenic diet kick-starts your body's metabolism so it burns fat, instead of sugar, as its primary fuel. But most ketogenic plans are meat- and dairy-heavy, creating a host of other problems, especially for those who prefer plants at the center of the plate. Dr. Will Cole comes to the rescue with Ketotarian, which has all the fat-burning benefits without the antibiotics and hormones that are packed into most keto diets. First developed for individuals suffering from seizures, keto diets have been shown to reduce inflammation and lower the risk of many chronic health problems including Alzheimer's and some cancers. Adding a plant-based twist, Ketotarian includes more than 75 recipes that are vegetarian, vegan, or pescatarian, offering a range of delicious and healthy choices for achieving weight loss, renewed health, robust energy, and better brain function. Packed with expert tips, tricks, and advice for going--and staying--Ketotarian, including managing macronutrients, balancing electrolytes, and finding your carb sweet spot, this best-of-both-worlds program is a game-changer for anyone who wants to tame inflammation and achieve peak physical and mental performance. Let the Ketotarian revolution begin!

introduction adjective 1. The amalgamation of delicious healthy fats and vegetable meals to optimize your metabolism, brain, hormones and overall health. 2. Switching your metabolism from burning sugar to burning fat—that is, freedom from food cravings. This is the manifesto for a new breed of health seekers and eaters. The pages you are reading are for anyone who wants to ditch dieting for good and actually get healthy. This book is the new manual to cut through food confusion and find out what to eat and what not to eat to lose weight, crush cravings, calm inflammation, and achieve optimal energy levels. We are over trying another unsustainable fad diet only to gain it all back (and then some). Let’s get healthy to lose weight, instead of trying to lose weight to get healthy. Sustainable weight loss should be a natural by-product of regained, radiant health. These days we have an overwhelming amount of information at our fingertips. The double-edged sword of Dr. Google is that he can both educate us about our health and yet suffocate us with conflicting information on what the heck we should eat, an endless vortex of conflicting information. Dr. Google is one fickle, confused guy. So what is the best way to your optimal health? Should you focus on high-meat diets like the paleo or Atkins ways of eating, or will they clog your arteries and make you fat? Maybe becoming a vegan or vegetarian is the answer, consuming only plant food. But will that deprive your body of nutrients like B vitamins and iron, and don’t those diets focus heavily on soy and grains, and isn’t that unhealthy? Ketogenic will show you the clear path of exactly how to use food as medicine and optimize every system in your body. Your brain, hormones, and metabolism will thrive in the Ketogenic state. You may be thinking that’s a bold statement, but as a leading functional medicine practitioner, rated as one of the top in the country, I have seen thousands of patients from around the world. I have seen what works and what doesn’t when it comes to the foods we eat. And I’ve distilled my years of clinical experience, using the power of delicious food medicine, in the pages of this book. You may have heard of the ketogenic diet. This low-carbohydrate, moderate-protein, high-fat way of eating has taken the wellness world by storm. The ketogenic diet promises to shift your metabolism into a fat-burning powerhouse, allowing you to lose stubborn weight that you may have been holding on to for years. The ketogenic diet promises not only weight loss but also a way to improve your brain function and decrease chronic inflammation, the root factor to just about every chronic health problem we face today.
