What might this look like in a day?


Breakfast: Coffee/tea with coconut oil, 2 eggs with sausage, sautéed onions & mush- rooms w/ baby kale cooked in ghee served with raw sauerkraut.


Lunch: Large salad with salmon topped


with avocado, pumpkin seeds and olive oil with lemon juice, salt and pepper and a sprinkle of goat cheese.


Dinner: Roasted chicken with Brussels sprouts roasted with pastured bacon, olive oil and walnuts, mashed cauliflower with pastured butter.


Modern Keto pairs really well with In-


termittent Fasting too because eating a high fat diet is very satiating. Fat, protein and fiber recalibrate ghrelin and leptin – our hunger and satiety hormones - so most people find that they feel great with 1-2 meals a day instead of three - and snacking becomes a thing of the past.


So back to the original question: Can


you lose weight with Keto? The answer is: Yes, for most people. However, there may be cases where other factors such as genetics, stress, physiology and hormone imbalances play a part in blocking the body’s ability to lose weight. In this case, the Keto approach may need to be modified for the individual. I’ll often cycle in whole food carbohydrates in cases where there’s more demand – such as fueling athletic performance or support- ing thyroid function and hormonal balance – particularly with women. To find your ideal approach to Keto, reach out to an experi- enced functional nutritionist to customize the right eating plan for you.
