It does seem strange that by eating ‘fat bombs’ you can be healthier, but that is the promise and science behind the Ketogenic Diet. You get to eat your (high fat/ low carb) cake and eat it. By sticking to a low carb diet, there are numerous benefits, including:
*
p<>{color:#000;}. Accelerated fat loss.
*
p<>{color:#000;}. Lower cholesterol.
*
p<>{color:#000;}. Lower blood sugar.
*
p<>{color:#000;}. Greater levels of energy and vitality.
*
p<>{color:#000;}. Improved mental focus (ketogenic diets were initially used for epilepsy).
For me, the best part about high fat foods tends to be the desserts. Particularly the new ‘category’ of food invented just for the low carb diet.. The Fat Bomb.
To help you get the most out of this diet, below are 20 of the best high fat/ low carb desserts around. I suggest trying at least one or two a week to help keep your motivation up. See them as a treat for being good throughout the week. The portioned treats are particularly great for this, (e.g. cookies, truffles), as they can be stored away throughout the week.
I hope you enjoy the recipes and they help you on your way to a healthier you.
I assume you know a bit / a lot about the Ketogenic Diet at this point, but just in case not, let’s have a quick overview of what is a Ketogenic Diet is prior to diving into the recipes.
Our body’s metabolism has evolved much less quickly than modern technology. In the past, we had to hunt for our meals and we often would go without food for days or weeks at a time, so our bodies stored as much of its energy reserves as possible for when it was needed. The body became extremely efficient at taking any excess energy (from food) and storing them for later (as fat). When food became scarce, the body would switch from using food as its main source of energy to the fat reserves.
However, in modern life, food is far more plentiful but excess energy is still be stored as fat. Modern life has exacerbated this by producing foods rich in carbohydrates (which are utilized more quickly by the body), and lowering the need for physical activity, hence excess energy (more calories are consumed than expended) is more abundant and consequently more energy is stored (usually as fat).
The concept of the ketogenic diet is that it takes advantage of your body’s natural system that uses fat for fuel. By switching to a low carbohydrate diet, your body adapts – unable to utilize the readily available source of carbohydrate that was once available to it, instead it begins to use both existing and new stores of fat as its energy source. This is known as a state of ketosis.
When we are on a diet containing sufficient amounts of carbohydrate, these are broken down into glucose which is used for energy. However, when carbs are restricted, our liver starts to produce ketones (also known as ketone bodies). These are transported from the liver to other tissues where they can be reconverted by enzymes in the body to produce energy.
That is the theory behind the diet, and in practice it breaks down into the below macronutrients:
*
p<>{color:#000;}. Carbs – 20 – 50 grams per day
**
p<>{color:#000;}. Try 30 grams to begin with and see how you feel and are progressing (see measuring results below)
*
p<>{color:#000;}. Protein – 0.7 – 1.2 grams per kg of body weight
**
p<>{color:#000;}. If your level of physical activity is high, go for the higher end as it will help to retain/ build muscle
*
p<>{color:#000;}. Fat – remaining calories from (good) fat
The above is an overview, but if you would like to know more about the diet in details then I have a complete guide to the diet along with how make it sustainable in the long term.. to the point where you no longer have to count calories.
You’ll learn everything you need to know. You will learn to:
*
p<>{color:#000;}. Lose that stubborn belly fat
*
p<>{color:#000;}. Tailor the diet to yourself (not changing your lifestyle for the sake of a diet)
*
p<>{color:#000;}. Never count calories again (no more food label reading).

It does seem strange that by eating ‘fat bombs’ you can be healthier, but that is the promise and science behind the Ketogenic Diet. You get to eat your (high fat/ low carb) cake and eat it. By sticking to a low carb diet, there are numerous benefits, including:  Accelerated fat loss.  Lower cholesterol.  Lower blood sugar.  Greater levels of energy and vitality.  Improved mental focus (ketogenic diets were initially used for epilepsy). For me, the best part about high fat foods tends to be the desserts. Particularly the new ‘category’ of food invented just for the low carb diet.. The Fat Bomb. To help you get the most out of this diet, below are 20 of the best high fat/ low carb desserts around. I suggest trying at least one or two a week to help keep your motivation up. See them as a treat for being good throughout the week. The portioned treats are particularly great for this, (e.g. cookies, truffles), as they can be stored away throughout the week
