Keto .. where to start

I really found these YouTube videos very helpful in understand Keto / Low Carb (My son shared these videos with me ..) Sarah Hallberg TEDx presentation

This one really hit home: Dr Benjamin Bikman

Dr Bikman has written a great book by the same title and I highly recommend it: Why We Get Sick

Another book that I read early in my journey that made a big difference: ANYWAY YOU CAN: Doctor Bosworth shares her mom's cancer journey. A Beginners Guide to Ketones for Life

Doctor Bosworth is also on youtube

Virta Health is an amazing organization that helps diabetics .. but also lots of good info.

Now for some of my favorite podcast / YouTube people. Many of these are doctors. This may be overwhelming so take your time with this.

Dr Ken Berry shares so many great videos (and and has a great book too).

Low Carb MD podcast .. two amazing docs (I don't know what podcast app you use, so the link above is to their website. If you have a favorte podcast app, I'm sure you can find them there.)

Another doctor with a podcast on Low Carb and so much more: Dr Tony Hampton He is also on Facebook

Amy Berger MS, CNS, NTP: Her blog

Amy on YouTube

A great book that opened my eyes: The Big Fat Surprise: Why Butter, Meat and Cheese Belong in a Healthy Diet

Two more amazing books (both by by Dr Jason Fung)

> The Obesity Code: Unlocking the Secrets of Weight Loss

> The Diabetes Code: Prevent and Reverse Type 2 Diabetes Naturally

NOTE: Dr Fung has write other books that are worth reading, a couple on fasting. Good reads!

I suggest reading anything you can find by Dr Eric Westman. Chick here for a google search

Great Keto recipes and more: Keto Adapted by Maria Emmerich

I get asked this all the time .. and why I use ‘Real Salt’. .. good read: How much salt do I need?


That is a good starting point. Be sure to check back often as I plan to tweak this list over time.

Now a few links about heart disease and statins
