Ketogenic pizza. Ketogenic toast. Ketogenic cornflakes. Yep, each of these, and many of carbalicious food items actually do exist in low-carb, high-fat nutrient dense recipes. You just have to know what to do, and you have to be willing to think outside the box of how most ketogenic eaters operate: which is basically drinking copious amounts of full-fat coconut milk, buying avocados by the dozen and going through a stick of butter every couple days.
Cancer survivors Domini Kemp and Patricia Daly just put the finishing touches on the first-ever comprehensive ketogenic cookbook - a cookbook based on the latest research on nutritional approaches to the prevention and management of cancer and a ketogenic diet. But this book is chock full of delicious recipes and practical ketogenic tips that go way above and beyond just cancer management. For decades, the ketogenic diet―which shifts the body’s metabolism from burning glucose to burning fat, lowering blood sugar and insulin and resulting in a metabolic state known as ketosis―has been used to successfully manage pediatric epilepsy. More recently, it has been used by the Paleo community as a weight loss strategy. Now emerging research suggests that a ketogenic diet, in conjunction with conventional treatments, also offers new hope for those coping with cancer and other serious disease. With endorsements from leading researchers and oncologists such as Dr. Thomas Seyfried (Cancer as a Metabolic Disease), The Ketogenic Kitchen offers more than 250 recipes, as well as meal plans and comprehensive scientific information about the benefits of a ketogenic diet, with sensible advice to help readers through periods of illness, recovery, and treatment. Domini Kemp is an award winning chef, food writer, and entrepreneur. In 2013, she was diagnosed with breast cancer and since then she has shifted her focus towards healthier eating. She changed her column in the Irish Times to focus on healthier recipes and opened Alchemy Juice Co., a juice and wholefoods cafe. The Ketogenic Kitchen is her fifth cookbook. Patricia Daly is an experienced nutritional therapist and author specializing in cancer care and the ketogenic diet in particular. She has worked with hundreds of cancer patients in Ireland and abroad, lectures at the Irish Institute of Nutrition and Health, and is a well-regarded speaker at conferences and in cancer centers.
After writing three eBooks, including "PRACTICAL KETO MEAL PLANS FOR ENDURANCE ATHLETES: Tips, Tricks And How To's For Optimizing Performance Using A High Fat, Low Carb Meal Plan", The Ketogenic Kitchen is her first print book.
During our discussion, you'll discover:
-The difference between Patricia's more "strict" diet and Domini's more "liberal" diet...[8:20]
-About how many carbs should you eat to be low carb versus ketosis...[11:20 & 18:55]
-The surprising dangers of excessive calorie consumption on a ketogenic diet...[23:10]
-The potential dangers of whey protein, especially for certain populations...[28:20]
-Why it is that both Patricia and Domini like something called Yacon syrup...[31:00]
-How to make your own ketogenic bread to have low carb toast...[34:05]
-How to make keto cornflakes or keto cereal...[45:25]
-Patrick and Domini's favorite way to make pizza that still allows it to be ketogenic (and how the heck they do the crust)...[46:55]
-How to make a simple and tasty low-carb version of the Japanese temaki recipe...[51:30]
-How to make "Bullet-proofish" coffee that doesn't result in any bloating or nausea...[55:15]

| 0:00.0 | Hey, what's up? It's Ben Greenfield and today's podcast is all about ketosis, but of course |
| 0:07.9 | one of the ways that you can get yourself into an extremely deep state of ketosis is |
| 0:12.4 | by mobilizing fatty acids from adipose tissue. And what's one of the best ways to do that? |
| 0:18.8 | Caffeine, coffee, green tea works pretty well too. Bacoffee is tastier, in my opinion, |
| 0:24.6 | a sponsor for today's show actually creates not just coffee, but coffee that has brains, |
| 0:30.8 | vitamins added to it, brain vitamins, vitamins, however you want to pronounce it. Things like |
| 0:36.1 | alpha, gpc, torine, l-thienine, d-m-a-e. These are all things that help to increase focus and |
| 0:44.9 | power output and cognition. They're all natural amino acids, typically found in foods, |
| 0:50.8 | but not always easy enough to get from diet alone. They help to protect and prolong coffee's |
| 0:56.7 | dopamine effect and reduce the anxiety you can give from coffee. This stuff is called |
| 1:01.6 | chimericophie, k-i-m-e-r-a-k-o-f-f-e-e. And you can go to chimericophie.com and use code Ben |

| 1:36.1 | things, this podcast is also brought to you by Blue Apron. And yes, you can maintain a state of |
| 1:42.4 | ketosis and still eat deliciously with some of the meals from Blue Apron. Like to have their |
| 1:47.0 | sesame, soba noodles. Those are not keto genic, I guarantee, but they're really tasty with |
| 1:53.2 | galon mushrooms and ginger lime peanuts. They also have marinated chicken thighs with jalapeno |
| 1:59.0 | rice and summer squash. I suppose if you skipped a rice, that would be keto genic. And then |
| 2:05.5 | they have their cod and tomatillo salsa with summer squash. And that one is amazing. I love |
| 2:14.4 | me a little bit of cod. You can get any of this stuff over at blue apron.com. And not only that, |
