Extremely important for health. And it is anti-ageing. Heals the digestive tract. This is awesome, organic, no pesticides or hormones, and we add it to soups, makes them taste better. Sprinkle it on cooked vegetables under butter and it will melt and make them taste far better. (asparagus fried in butter - ketogenic and very healthy!!!
(I highly recommend the book "KETO CLARITY" - (our family went keto about a month and a half ago, we each lost 20 pounds so far and feel 20 years younger and we dont HURT when we move anymore (also because of the GELATIN which is great for building up the body and joints and into-ageing and making you look great and young!!!)
Also, one of my new favorite INSANELY good recipes, is steak, cooked in olive oil with "Ninja Squirrel" Sriracha sauce (1/3 the price at whole foods), ...... serve it, there is lots of sauce. sprinkle lots of this GELATIN on the top of the served steak on teh plate. Then pour the cooked olive oil-sriracha mixture over it (that the steak cooked in). ....MMMMMMM!!!!!! What a great way to lose weight, become fat burning, FULL of energy, and feel AMAZING< look and feel 20 years younger.
Also, we got a few Keto cookbooks... the 30 day Ketogenic cleanse. Great recipes!!!
I pulled out our "Lodge" iron skillet (from amazon) and what i love about it is that it never has to be washed!!!!!!! I scrape it out then wipe it with a paper towel. No rinsing needed, etc.
Bacon and one or two eggs in the morning.
NOTE: in the GAPS diet, bone broth is very important - it heals the digestive system. It is just darn healthy. People KNEW to eat this, up until the 1050's - just like all the other wisdom that got almost wiped out in the 1950's and 1960's - when they drank canned milk and eat canned food and nothing else-eeew!! Anyway - gelatin rebuilds your cartilage - after a while you feel YOUNG!!!!!!!!!!!!! and Look young too! grest for rebuilding the colalgen in your skin, face, body, organs.
I get this because i have not yet had time to make beef broth myself..... this seems a great shortcut and also an amazing cooking item that makes food taste extra great.
A separate note about going KETOGENIC: it means fat burning. it is not related to other stuff that sounds like it has a similar name. it means fat burning. Anyway, when you start, a TON of yeasts and bad bacterias in your body die off by the trillions - the critters making you tired all the time and hungry all the time - and your body has to deal with eliminating them. So you have 1-2 difficult weeks (at least I did). Once you convert from burning sugar (carbs) into burning FAT, then you have ENERGY ALL THE TIME!!!! LIKE YOU ARE 20 OR 40 YEARS YOUNGER!!! And you are never hungry!!!!! It is well worth helping your body. It is your body's natural state.
Speaking of fat burning VS sugar (carb) burning --- a cancer cell is a cell that does not have enough oxygen, and LOTS of sugar around it to metabolize, so it begins to metabolize sugar instead of oxygen. The cell, instead of dying, has converted the way it stays alive, in order to stay alive, It is then called a cancer cell. An Austrian doctor many decades ago won TWO NOBEL PRIZES for his work in this, which is very lengthy (oxygen/ie walking outside EVERY day without fail, and adequate water, are VITAL for health. Times 100!) I believe his last name was Warburg. Anyway, knowing that about burning sugar/carbs, VS burning fat - imagine how much healthier your body is burning fat rather than carbs. Carbs puts a terrible stress on the body - I know because i'm now one of the millions of people that has gone to fat burning and what a massive impact it has on health and energy and youth.
