About Our Merry Band of Keto Fans
We’re just a group of long-time low-carbers who wanted to create an online community where folks can come to find support, ask questions, and learn more about all things ketogenic. Between us, we’ve got over half a century of keto experience under our belts!
How we started with keto and keto lifestyle
This whole journey first started back in the late 90s for one founding member, who was looking for a sustainable way to improve their health and lose some weight. After digging into the research on low-carb approaches, going keto was a no-brainer. The pounds started melting off, but, more importantly, they felt more energetic than ever before.
Word of these success spread among our little circle, and one by one we all decided to give keto a try ourselves. Turns out it’s kind of addicting seeing those kind of results! Before we knew it we were spending our evenings discussing macros, finding new recipes to share, and basically being “those keto people”.
Over the years we’ve evolved our diets, tailored things to fit our lifestyle changes, and learned more about gut health, fasting, exercise and advancing the science behind nutritional ketosis. Now we want to share everything we’ve discovered to help others optimize their wellbeing.
While none of us hold any official credentials or degrees, we view our hands-on experience and ongoing self-education as one of our strengths. We’re just regular folks who try to let science and our bodies guide the way.
So whether you need some new snack ideas, have doubts about fat intake, want to learn more about tracking macros – we’re here as your low-carb advisors! Come join the fun as we continue optimizing our ketogenic lifestyles.
Our vision is to create a welcoming online destination where people from all walks of life feel empowered to optimize their health through a ketogenic lifestyle. We want to normalize low-carb eating by demonstrating how flexible and enjoyable it can be.
Our mission is to provide approachable yet scientifically sound resources that make navigating nutritional ketosis simple and sustainable. Through delicious recipes, in-depth guides, and a supportive community environment, we aim to educate and inspire others to discover the life-changing benefits of reducing carbohydrates.
It is our goal to shatter the myths surrounding fat and demonstrate how a ketogenic diet can help reverse disease, manage weight, enhance mental clarity and provide abundant energy levels when followed appropriately. We are committed to making low-carb living an inclusive reality for anyone seeking to improve their wellness.
Finding Balance and Enjoying the Journey
While we remain strong advocates for the therapeutic benefits of nutritional ketosis, we’ve also learned over the years that it’s okay to loosen the reins a little bit once you’ve achieved your goals and your body has become fat-adapted.
Maintaining a ketogenic diet doesn’t have to mean complete carb restriction forever. For those wanting to incorporate more physical activity into their routine, adding some carbs around workouts may support performance. And let’s face it, who doesn’t love the occasional taste of something sweet or carb-laden every once in a blue moon?
