Summary:
"100 recipes, meal plans, and tactics for success! The Keto diet continues to grow in popularity as people across the country are learning more and more about it. However, there is conflicting research regarding the safety of consuming unlimited amounts of items such as bacon, cheese, fatty cuts of meats, and fried pork rinds. A large percentage of Keto dieters find the 70-80 percent fat intake requirement unsustainable, and even worrisome due to potential health implications. Many people are curious about the Keto lifestyle, given the weight loss results they hear about from others, but will not attempt the diet as the fat intake requirement sounds daunting! Almost Keto will provide a formal, lower fat, higher fiber, higher micro-nutrient nutrition planwhile still employing cleaner keto-approved foods.
