Dr. Colbert's nutritional approach to weight loss offers a surprising and healthy solution, making Dr. Colbert's Keto Zone Diet' a transformative guide.

It was interesting reading. However, I still cannot convince myself to try another regimented diet.

I am happy eating lots of fresh fruits and vegetables that are in season.

Well written and in depth exploration of the keto diet. I think the information was well researched and useful for anyone interested in the diet.

I have read a lot of diet books over the years. Most start by extolling the health benefits of their particular eating plan, which is always convincing. Okay, so most of them sensibly focus on the importance of prioritising fresh fruit and vegetables over processed food (as an aside, this is one of my biggest issues with a lot of vegan and vegetarian food—it’s highly processed. I can’t believe eating a highly processed GM soy product is can be healthier than eating grass-fed meat, or ocean-caught fish).

Typical diet books then move onto the specifics of the eating plan, complete with recipes. And that’s where the ones I’ve read fall down: the recipes are usually for a family of, but I’m the only one on the diet. Yes, I guess the logic of the four-person recipes is that no one wants to cook themselves separate food to the rest of the family. But it means that the diet recipes have to suit everyone in the family … and they never do. I’ve tried.

The Keto Zone Diet is the same, but different.
Yes, preaches the benefits of the keto eating plan, it emphasises fresh food, and it includes a handful of recipes. But it’s not prescriptive, which means it’s easier to follow, and easier to integrate into a family.

What is a keto zone diet?
Put simply, the idea is that the low-fat and low-calorie diets dominating the industry don’t work (as anyone caught on the diet-weight gain treadmill knows). The Keto Zone diet is a variation of the famed Atkins diet, which focuses on losing weight by limiting carbohydrate intake and eating moderate amounts of fat. Fat makes us feel full, while limiting carbs help us not to feel hungry between meals.

In practice, this means no bread, pasta, rice, corn, cereals, potatoes, sugar, or alcohol, limited fruit and limited starchy vegetables (like sweet potatoes and beans). It means moderate protein and fat (e.g. meat, dairy, and nuts), and unlimited low-starch vegetables. He also emphasises the importance of using good fats (such as avocado oil, coconut oil, olive oil, or butter from grass-fed cows) not bad fats (such as canola oil or soybean oil).

That’s it.
And that’s what I like about the Keto Zone Diet.
It’s workable. I can cook and serve the whole family the same food. We just choose our proportions. I eat lots of vegetables, a little meat, and no pasta or potato.

It’s simple, it’s workable, and it’s sustainable.
I won’t go into the science—you can read the book for that. I recommend you do, because this diet does go against a lot of the mainstream dietary advice. If following a low-fat, high-carb diet works for you, then great. Go with it. But I feel constantly hungry on a low-fat diet. I lose weight, but gain it all back again (sound familiar?). I don’t get so hungry on a low-carb diet, which has to be a good thing. If I’m not hungry (and can withstand the temptation to eat when I’m not hungry), then it’s going to be easier to lose weight.

There are a handful of simple recipes at the end of The Keto Zone Diet book, with an emphasis on simple. They are all for one person (well, except for the mayo and seed bread, but both will keep).

It doesn’t matter that there aren’t many recipes.
The internet is full of #Keto options, including cauliflower rice, cauliflower hash browns, and cauliflower pizza base, and a bread substitute or pancakes made from egg and cream cheese (the pancakes are a little sweeter than my regular recipe, but that means I don’t need the maple syrup).

If you’re curious about the keto diet, then Dr. Colbert’s Keto Zone Diet is a good introduction. If you’re a keto ninja, then this probably isn’t the book for you—although it might be a good book to own in paperback, to show your unbelieving friends that there is some real medical science behind your diet.

After trying to lose some weight over the summer, and failing miserably, I came across this book by Don Colbert. I thought I might as well take a look through it. What I found was very surprising to me. I never jumped on the give-up-all-carbs bandwagon, although I don’t go overboard with them. After reading about the positive results Dr. Don Colbert’s patients have had with weight loss AND improved health, I think this is definitely worth trying. He claims that it has actually helped people with some very serious health issues get better, and in some cases they are freed from their problems. The list is astonishing and includes Parkinson’s, diabetes, Alzheimer’s, sleep disorders, ADHD, ADD, blood pressure, fatty liver, IBS, chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, arthritis, joint aches and more.

The book offers plenty of reasons that a switch to the Keto Zone works. A shopping list is included, and there are enough choices that you can mix and match the options for meals.

This book has a lot of great information on how to lose weight by doing a Keto diet. My husband and I have been on this diet almost two months and this book has helped us a lot. This book is easy to follow and has some great recipes in it as well that are easy to follow. I voluntarily reviewed an advanced reader’s copy of this book. The free book held no determination on my personal review.

I must admit, I did not know much about the Keto Diet.. This book has given me a lot of information about the subject as well as how this type of diet can effect other things and who they can affect other things such as illness. The book is straight-forward, recipes seem easy to follow. A shopping list is also included and the products do not have to be expensive and should be able to be bought from a grocery store. I have told a few friends about this book and they are interested in reading it. Thanks to NetGalley, the author and the publisher for the ARC of the book in return for my honest review.

I had not heard of Keto until a patron asked for resources for it a few months back. There is definitely a market for this type of diet though the actual diet has remained obscure to me until I read this book. There is a lot of similarities between this and the Paleo diet, and I loved the descriptions and recipes that Dr. Colbert has included in this text.

I received a copy of this book from netgalley. Thank you to Netgalley, to the author and to the publisher. I wanted to read this book because I had heard a lot of people talking about the keto diet, but didn't really know what it is. Close to the beginning of the book, I realized that keto zone is something that I will never be able to get because I am unable to eat fish or nuts, and that is the majority of this diet. I found a lot of what the author said about weight loss and diet very interesting, so I finished the book and gained a lot of knowledge.

As someone who has been on a Keto based diet for a little over a month now I was very excited to read this book!
REASONS I LOVE THIS BOOK:
1. The author thoroughly break down why Keto works.
2. The Author goes in depth about what aliments can be helped with a Keto lifestyle.
3. The author give substantial information of the history behind Keto.

I will definitely be suggesting this to my friends and members in my Keto groups!

You can only lose weight if you follow the Keto Zone Diet.

Dr. Colbert's Keto Zone Diet is easy to read and to easy to apply. In a nutshell, the diet is high in fat, low in carbohydrates and moderate in protein. Here is what I especially like about this book:
Dr Colbert explains the Keto Zone Diet in an easy to understand way, without going into too many details.
He lists Keto Zone Diet friendly foods at the end of the book and even provides a basic starter shopping list. The listed food is budget friendly and easy to obtain.
You will also find general meal suggestions instead of complicated recipes that never get used.
Dr Colbert made me aware of the problematic IF fats which are used in many processed foods.
Personally, I have been on a ketogenic diet for 3 months now and I have lost 20 pounds so far. My meals are satisfying and I do not get hungry between meals. My weight loss is starting to slow down and I will use Dr Colbert's meal suggestions and tips to fine tune my diet for continuous weight loss until I reach my goal weight and for long-term weight maintenance. For me the diet works and Dr. Colbert's book makes following it a breeze.

I think there was a lot of information that is clearer in this book compared to others I have read. It allowed me to understand the popular diet better than just the foundation of it and that was useful. I personally don't think it's right for me but I think this book would give good information to those who want a better idea of the inner workings of the diet and how it helps you with your lifestyle because it's not just a diet but a genuine lifestyle change.

A great book to read about what to follow during Keto diet and the benefits of it......... Wonderful book.

This book was super informative and easy to understand. I'd heard about this type of eating, but never quite understood what all it entailed. Dr. Colbert's method is completely doable, and I will definitely start incorporating his practices into my daily life. I'd recommend this book to anyone looking to get a solid footing in the keto style of eating.

An excellent source for those looking into the Keto diet. I am planning on trying this, and will use this book as my source for information.

Lots of information on the Keto diet but I would have liked more recipes.

brilliant really informative and makes sense. why didn't I find out about the ketogenic diet earlier? he explains it easily and in layman's terms.

I have read more diet books then I should probably admit. I have heard a lot about the Keto diet and read quite a bit about it online. However this book gives real information about how this diet works and the steps one should take to be successful on this diet.

I am anxious to give this a try however I am a little nervous about giving up sugar (I am a bit addicted) but it is worth the try.

I was lucky enough to get an advanced copy of this book via Netgalley.com before it's September release. I devoured it in one setting. Dr. Colbert really breaks down why getting in the "Keto Zone" helps you to lose weight effortlessly. The idea is to have a diet consisting of mostly good fats that your body will in turn burn off. I plan to give this a try and see if I can finally get these stubborn pounds I gained from pregnancies off once and for all. Dr. Colbert's Keto Zone Diet is worth a read for anyone interested in the science behind a high fat/low carb diet or anyone wanting something effective to do for weight loss or other health benefits.

My grandson went on this diet and I wanted to understand how it works. I have read several other books and this one was the most clear and concise. Dr. Colbert explained some things in more detail that were glossed over in the other books. I would recommend this book for anyone wanting a clearer picture of the diet's working and the benefits
I requested and am glad I was approved, a copy of this book from NetGalley.
