Patricia Daly, herself a cancer survivor, has written “The Ketogenic Kitchen,” a guide for cancer patients and others who want to harness the benefits of a ketogenic diet. She describes her personal success with a ketogenic diet, and discusses the rationale for using fat instead of sugar as a calorie source. Other conditions that respond well to ketogenic diets include: dementia, epilepsy, obesity, heart disease, traumatic brain injury and diabetes. How low do you need to go with carbs? Is the diet necessarily meat-laden? What foods are no-no’s? What foods are encouraged? How do you measure whether your body is switching from carb-dependency to fat adaptation? Is the diet safe? Does it require professional supervision to implement? Click HERE for part 2. Companion Podcast Episodes and Articles: “The True Metabolic Basis of Cancer,” “Ask Leyla: Do you have any tips for maintaining my ketogenic diet?,” and “Metabolic Approaches to Cancer Treatment.”
Give the gift of healthy chocolate!
If you have a sweet tooth like me, the holiday season can be full of temptation.
Thankfully, FlavaNaturals’ line of products ensures chocolate lovers like me can obtain the full health benefits of cocoa flavanols along with great taste—all with less fat and sugar!
Cocoa is one of the most thoroughly-investigated functional foods on the planet. That’s why I take plentiful, flavanol-rich cocoa supplementation daily and have long recommended it to my patients and audience. But just taking any store-bought dark chocolate won’t deliver its benefits; FlavaNaturals cocoa products contain 5-9 times the beneficial flavanols of typical dark chocolate. I throw some powder in with my decaf or a smoothie, and even use it to make chia chocolate pudding!
Right now, FlavaNaturals is offering special holiday savings for my audience: Save 20% through December 19th with code HOFFMAN20
