RE: The Keto Diet

in #gathering6 years ago

Wow good for you, I’ve heard good things about the keto diet and do believe our bodies aren’t designed to digest the processed carbs and sugars that are the norm in American Diets. I tend to try to make everything myself so I can control the ingredients and eat fresh as much as I can. But I also like to bake 😬... a strict keto diet could be tough stops editing the cheesecake photos for her future post

Good for you for putting your health first especially with such a busy schedule. Also, it’s nice to see this personal side of you on your blog!

For sure we aren't designed to eat anything processed. Cutting out processed carbs like bread and pasta might make sense (too delicious for meeez tho 😆😊). But we certainly aren't designed to eat another species' growth formula either lol. And afaik Ketos love their cheese and butter.

So I have a hard time believing Ketos have a real commitment to what our bodies are designed to handle.

I think it's just an improvement over the standard American diet in that it cuts out the processed foods, and still hits some of the same comforts. But hard to square the circle of where loading up on cheese and bacon can be healthy.

I'd rather just smash in healthy foods (fruits, veggies, grains, nuts) and not have to treat everything like a science experiment, of like when and how you do everything.

I feel like I'd want to go to the doctor like every week if I was on Keto, to make sure everything looks okay lol.

(Not hating, and curious how this works out for Ned, just sharing a perspective for whatever it's worth.. I just really don't think Keto is a good long-term thing.. it might be a good cleanse, I'd like to see Ned slide into High Carb / low fat / low processed / VEGAN after he decides this is cray cray 😄 .. no shortage of beautiful people posting delicious recipes here on Steemit to help)
