Publisher's summary

The ketogenic diet is a diet based on a process called ketosis. It is a specific state of the body, which is characterized by an elevated level of ketones in the blood which occurs due to the conversion of fats into fatty acid and ketones. This occurs when the body gets only very small amounts of carbohydrates over a certain period of time.

When you start with this type of diet, your body goes through several changes. After 24 to 48 hours since the beginning of this diet, the body starts to use ketones in order to use the energy stored in fat cells more efficiently. In other words, a primary source of energy becomes fat, instead of carbohydrates.

Because of that, during ketosis it is not a problem to eat food with bigger amount of fact, than would otherwise seem reasonable

This way the body is rapidly losing weight, specifically in fat. In addition, the loss of muscle tissue is minimal since the vast majority of food consumed during ketosis also contains relatively large amounts of proteins that are good for your muscles.

If you are interested in finding out more about this diet, listen to this interesting and informative book to find out more about the ketogenic diet.

Short but good read! Try this diet yourself!

I really enjoyed 'How to eat successfully at restaurants' section. Additionally the guide provides helpful tips on what to include or not in the Keto diet.

Great Informative Intro

This is an informative intro to the Keto Diet, a low carb, high fat diet that's been made popular recently by body builders and athletes. It explains the science behind the diet in a simple and easy to understand way. It covers the different types of Keto diets like Targeted, Cyclical, and Standard. While this beginner's guide doesn't contain meal plans, it does list some of the staples to keep on hand as well as some ideas on how to use them. The author doesn't gloss over the risks and difficulties associated with the diet. It's a great book to pick up to decide if the Keto diet is for you.

The narrator did a great job, he has a personable voice and kept me interested. I received a copy of the audiobook, and I'm voluntarily leaving a review.

Limiting Carbs..

Any additional comments?


This is a short informative read.

It basically explains the benefits of a high protein, low carbohydrates diet.

Overall, an interesting information about eating healthy, I just wish the book was a little longer.

Harry Roger Williams, III did well with the narration.

Great introduction to the ketogenic diet

This is not the typical book I usually review, but I was interested in this one since I have been following a paleo diet for more than three years. A paleo diet is essentially low carb, but I know people following a ketogenic diet with great success.

First of all, the book focuses a bit more on losing weight than I expected, since what I wanted to know more about was the health benefits from this kind of diet. Nevertheless I think it is a good introduction, even though I think some of the material would be more friendly in print.

It is a quick listen, enough to learn the basics, the pros and cons of this diet, but before venturing on this new way of eating I would try to go deeper and check with a specialist.

Harry Roger Williams III delivered a compelling narration, keeping my attention at all times and making this an interesting listen.

I received a copy of this book in audio format from the narrator in exchange for an honest review.

Excited to try

I am genuinely excited to try this diet. I am going to listen to it again. Write down notes. Then put together a grocery list. It's going to be hard to give up carbs. I'm happy with both the book & narrator. I received this audiobook for free for an honest review.

Disappointed several chapters were Infomercial

Would you try another book from David D. Kings and/or Harry Roger Williams, III?

I appreciated the history of Keto and the benefits and warnings of this way of eating. However, I didn't care for the informercial of buying Keto 7 supplement in chapters 6 and 9. It would have been better to keep to informing beginners and offering us facts about supplements (like you did in chapter 5?) than trying to sell us on Keto 7

What about Harry Roger Williams, III’s performance did you like?

I thought Mr. Williams gave a very nice performance. He kept the information moving and interesting. Thanks.

Any additional comments?

I was given a free copy via audiobook boom. I voluntarily offered my unbiased review. Thank you.
