Ketogenic Diet For Beginners: A Low-Carb Journey towards Better Health Drop the bowl of breakfast cereal. Dump the cup of coffee with skim milk down the drain. Fry up some bacon and have your morning java with heavy cream instead! Wait, what? What kind of nutritional advice is that? The pretty good kind, if you ask me. As a society, we’ve been taught that fat is bad for us and that we have to eat plenty of whole grains and carbohydrates in order to stay healthy. Yet Americans are overweight and plagued with diseases such as heart disease and diabetes. And even with obesity on the rise, we still reach for the low-fat granola bars instead of choosing fresh, whole, natural food. It’s time for us to stop fearing fat. We need to challenge the belief that eating foods like bacon, heavy cream and even butter will increase our risk of high cholesterol and heart attacks. By restricting carbohydrate intake to just 30 grams per day, the ketogenic diet places a heavy focus on eating a high amount of fat and an adequate amount of protein. It encourages you to eat plenty of vegetables, meat, and full-fat dairy if you can tolerate it. It forces you to ditch the pre-packaged “food” that is all over food stores these days. Most of all, it teaches you to make smart food choices that keep your body functioning properly. This book will take you through an overview of the ketogenic diet, including a variety of diseases and disorders that can benefit from a low-carb eating plan; an explanation behind why eating too many carbs is bad for us; and provide tips and tricks to help keep you motivated. So grab a cup of tea with a couple tablespoons of cream, sit back, and learn how eating more fat can help keep you slim, healthy, and happy!

From the two-time New York Times best-selling author of Against All Grain and Meals Made Simple, comes 125 recipes for grain-free, dairy-free, gluten-free comfort food dishes for holidays and special occasions.  When people adopt a new diet for health or personal reasons, they worry most about the parties, holidays, and events with strong food traditions, fearing their fond memories will be lost along with the newly eliminated food groups. After suffering for years with a debilitating autoimmune disease and missing many of these special occasions herself, Danielle Walker has revived the joy that cooking for holidays can bring in Danielle Walker's Against All Grain Celebrations, a collection of recipes and menus for twelve special occasions throughout the year.  Featuring a variety of birthday cakes, finger foods to serve at a baby or bridal shower, and re-creations of backyard barbecue standards like peach cobbler and corn bread, Danielle includes all of the classics. There’s a full Thanksgiving spread--complete with turkey and stuffing, creamy green bean casserole, and pies--and menus for Christmas dinner; a New Year's Eve cocktail party and Easter brunch are covered, along with suggestions for beverages and cocktails and the all-important desserts. Recipes can be mixed and matched among the various occasions, and many of the dishes are simple enough for everyday cooking. Stunning full-color photographs of every dish make browsing the pages as delightful as cooking the recipes, and beautiful party images provide approachable and creative entertaining ideas.  Making recipes using unfamiliar ingredients can cause anxiety, and while trying a new menu on a regular weeknight leaves some room for error, the meal simply cannot fail when you have a table full of guests celebrating a special occasion. Danielle has transformed her most cherished family traditions into trustworthy recipes you can feel confident serving, whether you’re hosting a special guest with food allergies, or cooking for a crow...

The vast majority of people who struggle with their weight have been programmed at a very early age to struggle with their weight. They ve been programmed by their parents, comments, traumatic experiences, advertisements, and the belief that one needs to diet and exercise hard in order to lose weight. The solution is to change a person s automatic actions, or their instincts. The actions they take on a daily basis that they don t even think about. Most of what we do on a daily basis is done without conscious thought. Our internal dialogue is what compels us to check the mail, to get up and go somewhere, tells us when we re hungry, and tells us to exercise or not. Once our internal dialogue puts the thought in our mind, then we sometimes make the conscious choice to do so. If you ask someone who struggles with their weight to close their eyes, and tell you the first thought that comes to mind when you ask them about losing weight, chances are they ll say it s very difficult, or hopeless, or it will require a lot of exercise and a lot of dieting. The first thought and emotion that pops into their mind will be a negative one, and this is because of the negative programming in their minds. This is what the problem is. The solution is to change the way one thinks about themselves, food, and exercise. By recreating the pictures in their mind associated with food, their bodies, and exercise and associating them with a more pleasant experience, they ll instinctually perform the actions necessary to lose weight. By explaining to them that dieting actually causes obesity from a physical and psychological standpoint, they ll become inspired. When you tell someone who is overweight that they can eat what they want, and they don t have to spend hours in the gym, and prove it to them, this alone will cause a shift in their mentality. And this shift is the first step in undoing the negative programming. People who are naturally thin have automatic actions that support them being thin. The majority of their internal dialogue or ...
