About this ebook

 For those who are brand-new to keto and those who are getting back on track after falling off the wagon, the first 30 days on a ketogenic diet can be challenging. As the body adapts to burning fat (ketones) rather than sugar for fuel, cravings can arise, and some people find that they just don't feel so great. Many fall victim to the temptation to give up before they can truly experience the benefits of being keto-adapted. The 30-Day Ketogenic Cleanse isn't like most juice or other cleanses where you starve throughout the entire process. Keto expert Maria Emmerich offers tasty whole-food recipes—all dairy-free and nut-free—that are filling and satisfying and keep cravings at bay. Plus, she offers helpful tips and tricks for making it through the adjustment period.

The 30-Day Ketogenic Cleanse is a guidebook for healing the body from the inside out. Most people attempting a keto diet do it completely wrong. Maria Emmerich, on the other hand, bases this cleanse on a true, well-formulated ketogenic diet, helping readers reset their metabolism, regain health, lose weight, and tap into increased energy levels. This book includes:

   • A detailed explanation of how sugar causes inflammation and leads to disease

   • 30-day meal plans to kick-start ketosis, with corresponding shopping lists

   • 30-day Whole30-compliant meal plans, with corresponding shopping lists

   • A wide variety of amazing recipes, with suggestions for combining those recipes into delicious and satisfying ketogenic meals

   • Easily accessible lists of approved keto foods and foods that hold people back from ketosis

   • Tips on how to eat to balance hormones, sleep better, feel better, and lose weight while following a ketogenic diet

   • Guidance for maintaining ketosis after a successful 30-day cleanse

   • Recommendations for supplements to help heal from poor eating habits

   • A bonus slow cooker chapter to help make life easier!

Ratings and reviews

Great book - But I was really hoping this would would for me and my family of 6 (4 children). Can it be made for family of 6?

If you are looking to start Keto, or if you wish to try a new approach to Keto, buy this book! I was on Keto, but the weight had stopped coming off. I came across the FB group, and bought the book. I am so glad I did. I lost about 15lbs in 30 days, gained energy, stopped craving sweets, and was able to go 20 hours with Intermittent Fasting. If there is a meal you do not like, then find another one to replace it. If you are super busy, cook your meals on the weekend and eat them throughout the week, or freeze to eat at a later date. I love the support that comes with the book, and the easy meal planning. There is a grocery store list that makes grocery shopping easy. It is also easy to replace ingredients for a vegetable that you do not like. I cannot sing enough praises about this book. Even though my 30 days have been over, I still go back to the Cleanse and Maria's other books to keep on Keto.

I found this book when I was overwhelmed starting my Keto journey. It gave me the clarity I was searching for. Maria did a wonderful job creating a meal plan that's easy to follow with delicious recipes! This is a must read for sure!
