The Keto Diet Calculator eBook is a collection of homemade Ketogenic breads, muffins, and crackers. The recipes in this booklet have been kitchen tested by the authors for taste and ketogenic suitability. The macronutrients for cooked or baked goods are based on the final weight of the recipe to achieve the highest accuracy versus the raw weight of the ingredients. After you have prepared and tasted a recipe, you can incorporate it into the diet. We recommend using them as a “snack” the first time to try out, then add it to a “meal” if you like it.
The ketogenic diet, which is very high in fats and low in carbohydrates, was first developed almost 80 years ago. It makes the body burn fat for energy instead of glucose. When carefully monitored by a medical team familiar with its use, the diet helps two out of three children who are tried on it and may prevent seizures completely in one out of three. It is a strict diet, and takes a strong commitment from the whole family. The ketogenic diet is not a do-it-yourself diet. It is a serious form of treatment that, like other therapies for epilepsy, has some side effects that have to be watched for.
The Keto Cookbook is a cookbook for those using the diet to treat epilepsy and other neurologic conditions. The book contains 96 recipes grouped by breakfast and brunch, appetizers & snacks, lunch, dinner, and sweets and treats. The book includes a 16-page color insert illustrating each recipe. Since many children start the Keto Diet before they speak, the pictures of the meal and snack options allow children to choose what they want, helping overcome food refusal due to lack of variety of foods and/or child’s loss of control over food options. This book provides parents and children with options that have been tested and are kid- and Registered Dietitian- approved.
