I am diabetic with PCOS and need to lose weight and lower my blood sugar levels.. I have been changing my eating habits and lost 5 lbs in the last three weeks. I want to start Keto because I have read and been told it is a good way for diabetics to get their sugar in order and lose weight. I was hoping someone could tell me of a good Keto diet book. I don't know a lot other than low carbs. I understand what Ketosis is but would like more information. If not a good book maybe a website. I am not sure what the guidelines are as far as net carbs, calories, etc.

    I like these two:

    1. The Keto Diet Reset, by Mark Sisson, and
    2. Keto, by Maria and Craig Emmerich

    I got my copies from Amazon.

    I can't help you as far as diet books, but if you want the science behind the diet broken down REALLY well into laymen's terms, check out Thomas DeLauer on YouTube. He explains a great deal about Keto, and he also throws out a couple decent ideas (keto coffee, apple cider vinegar elixir, etc). - Rob

    I like ruled.me for Keto information. I also read marksdailyapple.com, the guy who came up with Primal Blueprint. He's extremely knowledgeable about nutrition and nutrients. Every time I read something on his site, I do my own research and he's spot on. Long, long ago he developed the supplements for the P90X program, then later decided to use his knowledge toward a more natural lifestyle. I have the bacon and butter cookbook, but I haven't used it much yet since I've only been on Keto for a week. I am down 7.5 pounds, though!

    Go to Dr. KenDBerry YouTube channel. He has a free downloadable book you can have for free! Hope this helps!

    I like 'Eat Fat' by Dr. Trudi Deakin. It's a step by step guide to low carb living. lots of coloured diagrams which makes it easy to understand. Some good recipes at the back, my favourite is a quick microwaved chocolate sponge pudding, takes about 5 minutes to whip up and 1-1 and half minutes to cook. Yummy with thick cream ! :) I got it on Amazon.

    The Obesity Code by Jason Fong, Why We Get Fat by Taubes, Keto Clarity by Jimmy Moore and Eric Westman, are some of my favorites.

    Not a book per se but I learned so much listening to the 2ketodudes podcast and they have a huge online forum. Ketogenicforum.com

    I'm reading the obesity code at the moment and it's brilliant, particularly about why we lose weight for so long and then plateau, so as a yo yo dieter and someone long past the menopause I'm now incorporating intermittent fasting to speed things up. Tomorrow I won't eat until dinner in the evening.

    Go here: http://oceanofpdf.com/search/ and search for Simply Keto by Suzanne Ryan. It's great, simple, has wonderful recipes and a 30 day meal plan. It's a free pdf file you can download!
