Last week I went to Berkeley for the Ancestral Health Symposium and I quickly realized that the Keto diet was well loved among those present. I also had the chance to meet Jimmy Moore, who was such a nice man.
Jimmy just released his newest book Keto Clarity, which is the definitive guide to the benefits of the diet. While I have heard of the diet and even made a bad attempt of trying it for a week, I was pretty excited to get a more in-depth account of why this diet is such a powerful healing tool.
When I previously thought of the Keto diet, I thought of the following:
- No hunger
- Normal blood sugar levels and repaired insulin sensitivity.
- Endless energy
- Stinky breath and pee (come on, we all think of this one)
What I didn’t know was that it also helps with:
- Better fertility
- Increased sex drive
- Slowing of aging
- Reduced acne and other skin conditions
- Decreased anxiety and mood swings
- and so much more . . .
The Keto diet focuses on eating high quality fats, moderate protein and less than 30 carbs a day (This is individual so you will need to test your blood sugar to get the correct number of carbs you need).
Keto Clarity breaks down all this information in an easy to understand way and provides all the tools you need to get started on your Keto journey. I highly recommend grabbing this book so you can get the truth and the tools necessary to start this diet.

I’ve been eating Paleo for years but haven’t tried such a low carb diet. It would be interesting to see if it helps with some issues I still have, IBS being one of them.
That’s such a nice picture of you and Jimmy!
Always looking for any tools or tips…
This is such an interesting topic! Thanks for sharing!
I’m really interested in learning more about the keto diet. Does he address its specific affects on women?
That pudding looks delicious. Can’t wait to try.

Yum. Does it taste like ice cream or creamy avocado?
It tastes like thick pudding, lol. No you can’t taste the avocado 🙂
How cool that you got to meet Jimmy Moore!! I am very interested in his book Keto Clarity.
I need to get this book! I’ve been contemplating trying a keto diet or at least doing lower carb higher fat and leaving out the testing. Thanks for the giveaway!
I’VE BEEN HEARING MORE ABOUT KETO LATELY. I’M DEFINITELY INTERESTED IN LEARNING MORE ABOUT IT. AT THE VERY LEAST I CAN’T WAIT TO TRY THIS RECIPE.
So excited about this recipe and triple excited to see my dad’s book represented! He’s been working on ketogenic and low carb diet science since I was a preteen. So inspired to see how much it supports people. And REALLY excited to eat this after dinner tonight 🙂
I hope you both enjoyed it Laura!
Would this work with heavy cream instead of coconut milk? Do you th8nk I could use a quality essential oil instead of the extract? This looks sooo yummy!,
Yes both should work hun.
