SteviaÂ
Derived from the leaves of a South American plant, which is a part of the sunflower family, the active sweet compounds, called stevia glyosides, are extracted and refined. Liquid Stevia is one of the most popular keto sweeteners.
Many people start the keto diet with the false assumption that eating tons and tons of fat will get you into ketosis faster. But if you eat too much fat, your body will burn that dietary fat first and it will not burn your body’s fat, which is the goal, isn't it?Â
So, we get it that fats have gotten a bad rap in the past, right? But, there’s another IMPORTANT thing to note…. Not all fats are created equal. You want to make sure you are feeding your body good, high-quality fats, not the harmful, unhealthy ones! There is a huge difference between good and bad fats.
Getting started on the keto diet takes some good, solid planning. There's a shopping shift that needs to happen initially to begin your ketogenic journey. Since the "rules" of the keto diet fly in the face of every other diet, you'll have to also retrain your brain to understand the way keto works.
Keto is a low carb, moderate protein and high fat diet, so you'll need to stock up on some key foods and pantry items. The best food choices for the keto diet can be found on the outer perimeter of traditional grocery stores; the produce, dairy and meat sections, avoiding all "junk foods “and grains of any kind.
Living the keto lifestyle, whether it's a holiday, a weekend or a special occasion, means sticking to your meal plan no matter what. And it all starts with making sure you have all the tools (foods) you need in your toolbox.
If you grew up in the ’60s, ’70s or ’80s, your brain was washed to believe that eating fats equaled being fat. The myth was that the fat we consumed would become the body fat we’d carry on our tummies and hips. That's about when the reduced-fat diet fad was born. Low-fat, non-fat and skim were the buzz words of the day and foods like yogurt, milk, cheese, mayonnaise, snack foods and salad dressing with these false promises began to line the store shelves. Labels promising weight loss due to fat reduction became the industry norm and consumers, excited at the thought of easy weight-loss, bought it like hotcakes. (Low-fat ones, of course.... ha!)
Popular brands of "Fat-Free" salad dressing appear to be “diet” foods, and the calories are not surprisingly low, but take a look at the carbs... 11 grams in just one serving for many brands! Then, look closely at the list of ingredients. Pretty long, huh? But, here’s the kicker… high fructose corn syrup is number 2 on the list... otherwise known as pure sugar!
