Anyone on the ketogenics diet? I have a question.

Question

I'm really interested in this lifestyle, but I am concerned on whether it'll affect my cholesterol. I have high cholesterol that I'm trying to get under control. I also used to have diabetes due to having pcos.

So my concern is the cholesterol.

Will it have a positive or a negative affect towards my cholestrol?

Thanks for your time!

Answer

I currently live a hybrid of the ketogenic and paleo lifestyle. One of the first things you should know is that cholesterol and animal fats are absolutely essential in diet. In order to stay healthy with a high fat diet, it has to be GOOD fats. No canola oil, vegetable oil, fake butter, hydrogenated oil.  Opt for tallow, real, grass fed butter, coconut oil, avocado oil.

I strongly encourage you to research a book called Nourishig Traditions. It is my BIBLE for health and knowing the importance of eating nutrient dense diet and how it affects your own health and the health and even the bone structure of your children. The keto way of life comes so much more naturally if you know why it works and why it's important. Obviously I'm incredibly passionate about this lol
