What the Experts Say: Thought I'd throw out some sites that review the Keto plan... Since it was my cardiologist who recommended it and my kidney doctor who okay'd it, I'm working on making sure I do it right. The most important thing I've learned is: MAKE SURE YOU CHECK WITH YOUR DOCTOR BEFORE YOU GO ON THE KETO PLAN. It can drastically drop your blood sugar and people with Type I Diabetes should not follow it. Below is a list of places to visit for info on the keto plan from a medical viewpoint:
The Diabetes Council
Harvard - Is Ketogenic Diet Good for you?
Healthline: Keto Diet
Today Article: Is the Keto Diet Right for You?
Keto Rate Blog: Is the Keto Diet Safe?

I've run into a few newsletters I can share about meal planning, general info and some helpful tips for Keto (list below). Some are great, some are greatish and some are great-like. Anyway, all are free and have info for us novice Ketotites. If you have any to share, please comment with the links. Matt has mastered the art of stir-fry (the trick is not to overcook the veggies) and does it even better than I do. Kudos for a marvelous feast without the carbs.
