Great place"
Very beautiful and quiet place. The veranda overlooks the beautiful garden and the sea. Spacious room with air conditioning and fan. The room has everything you need for cooking, TV, DVD, Comfortable bed and a good cleaning of the room. To the sea 10 minutes on foot. Nearby there are shops, a pharmacy, a cafe. I want to thank Rolf and Phen for a great stay.
Lovely apartment on the hill"
We had a lovely stay at freedom estate. Really quiet but still close to everything. The owners and their staff was wonderful and made our stay so nice., Would be happy to come back
The perfect stay!"
I visited with two things on my mind: work and beach. The WiFi here was very strong and reliable. There are plenty of power outages in Koh Lanta, but they don't last long. My work was never affected. The location is great. Super close to the beach, but right above the main road to secure a quiet setting and privacy. The apartment itself was heaven. Very clean, comfortable, and the best kitchen I've found in Thailand. The hosts were amazing also! Can't wait to return!
Excellent "
Really nice location near of beach and local services. Clean room with AC and Safety box. Friendly and welcoming stuff. Best beaches in south easily reachable by scooter. We will come back! Highly recommended.
muy buena experiencia"
I went there with a friend and we had a very good time at the Freedom Estate. For me it was perfect location. away from the busy street or the sometimes busy and loud beach, but walking 3-4 min. you are in the middle of everything and right next to the beach. Rolf and his wife where very nice and helpful. The place is very pretty, like you little home, kitchen full equipped. Very nice view from your own little terrace down to the ocean. Every day fresh towels and on top you get fresh water every day for free, I found it very good to not produce that much plastic garbage every day buying water, just refilling my bottle. Would go there any time again!
This hotel is our love forever. Lovely friendly owners. Every time we return here as a family.
Peaceful "
Booked 3 nights ended up staying 6 nights ,a very peaceful location away from the busy Main Street with lovely garden views . Accommodation very comfortable a 5 min walk to beach loved it
Very nice place on a good location"
Pro's Fully equiped kitchen Location (quite but nearby beach, stores and restaurants) Beach on walking distance (5 min) Clean Large appartement Nice garden Great view Con's When turning the shower on with full pressure shower is cold It is uphill and quite steep, could be difficult to walk
Very well equiped (full kitchen, TV+DVD, DVDs to borrow for free, safe, A/C + Fan, chairs and table inside and outside). Free daily drinking water refill (a gallon!). Nice & clean bungalow. Very nice owner pair & friendly staff. Fully recommended! Regarding location: it's a bit up the hill, so you have a nice (sunset) view onto the sea and Phi Phi island. However, bear in mind that this means it's not directly located at the beach like some other resorts. Nevertheless, it's only a 5min walk to the beach and the nice balcony/ view outweighs the some distance to the beach.
Amazing stay!"
Great place. Really comfortable in a good location. Full kitchen, can cook every day. Everything you need. Rent a motorbike and have a great stay in Koh Lanta.
5/5 "
I stayed at Rolfs place for a couple nights and everything went perfectly, there is everything you need in the cottage and the location is good aswell. This was one of the few times staying in hotel and leaving with the feeling that I got way more than what I paid for. Thank you Rolf!
Very good apartment near everything"
A great place to explore"
We stayed at freedom estate for 10 nighys. Rolf and Nu were here to meetbus. Appartment had everything we needed including a fully equipped kitchen, with oven, gas cooker, blender, slow roast cooker and all cutleries etc. Because its self-serve it gives you the peace and quiet you like and the freedom to cook and explore at your own leisure. Rolf has a large collection of dvds you can watch on the telly and also lots of books At the bottom of the small hill climb (4/5min walk) you have laundry, hairdresser, numerous mini marts, rentals and tourist information. On the other side of the roadfrom the appartments you have phrae beachwhich you can see from the appartments. You get get views of phi phi and other islands. Rolf was always available by email at any time for any issues (which we had none) or information. We even turned up 2 days late of our booking and was not a problem to stay for our entire 10 nights which was excellent service. Well worth the money. No pool here but plenty of beaches. Thanks Rolf and Nu. Ryan and Annie
Excellent view and relaxing"
We enjoyed our stay. We find it relaxing to be there. Thanks so much for the friendly and supportive owner who took the trouble taking us from the pier and to meet our departing bus very early in the morning. This self contained apartment/town house will suit couples and families who prefer independence. The estate in on the hill side but the owner is happy to give transportation if you ask for it. There are restaurants and shops including 7-11 nearby.
Happy as it is perfect for us. If you know what you are getting then you should be good, as in location, condition, etc.....just get yourself prepared and you are good, or better ;)
Bad location"
The apartments are up three hills. Definitely not a place to stay if you have children. Also at night there is absolutely no lighting and the hills are very rocky and Stoney so is quite dangerous. Bathroom had a really damp, strange smell and was too dark to see anything
Great hideaway"
Fantastic place, hidden away yet within walking distance of restaurants/bars. Renting a bike is much easier though. Owners very friendly and helpful. Beautiful views, well equipped apartment.
Best place to stay in Loh Lanta! "
I loved my appartment and I hope to be back soon!
Lovely Location, AWESOME Kitchen! Great Owners :)"
The biggest take-away from our stay was the generous hospitality from the owner, Rolf and his wife, Nu. This is how good it is. We had emailed and spoken to Rolf the day before to be picked up from the Koh Lanta Ferry Terminal. What we didn't know was the ferry between Phi Phi Island and Koh Lanta would break down, which added a few hours to the trip. Arriving several hours later, Rolf was waiting for us at the ferry terminal and kindly drove us back to the hotel. When we left, he organised a Minivan to Krabi and was willing to drive us to the bus-stop -- although we decided last minute to stay on the island longer. The Apartments themselves all look to be the same. My partner and booked the place based on the Kitchen as we are travelling around in Thailand for a while and are getting fed up with Fried food all the time. It is VERY AWESOME making fresh-fruit smoothies every day for a dollar or so! Kitchen includes everything you need to cook up a storm -- just bring the ingredients! The view is great overlooking the ocean below and we had some amazing sunsets each night. The Mosquitos are out in force but we had great mosquito screens. The shower was nice and warm but it was so hot in April -- a cold shower was welcome. The bed is huge and very comfortable :) The downsides for us were the internet was not very reliable. For a day or two out of our 7 days there, it was not working at all and at other times it was slow. We needed to spend some time on the internet each day, so when the internet went down, we luckily found an Awesome Bakery near by that had high-speed wifi and great food! (Just turn right from the drive-way and look for the big Bakery sign a few hundred metres down the road). Overall though -- very happy with our stay but did think the high-season prices for April was abit too much compared to other places. But then again -- not many other places offer kitchens! Thanks Rolf and Nu!
Best value!

I found it strange when I first realised racism existed, because nobody is born with an inherent understanding of racism. It is something that you learn as you grow up in this world. Something that you, unfortunately, just come to accept as a way of life.
As a child, my dark skin and my friends light skin did not seem remotely relevant. I went to a private primary school and was one of four black girls in my year, but I never remember noticing it as a fact, or having it be an issue. Black, White, Asian, Hispanic… It didn't matter. We were all four-year-olds and we were all starting school, that was the only thing we saw when we looked at each other.
It was ballet examination day and a couple of my friends came out of their exam giggling because the examiner had told them "It was nice to see so many black girls in our dance class". There were three of us.
I first remember viewing my skin as something that made me "different" at around eight years old. It was ballet examination day and a couple of my friends came out of their exam giggling because the examiner had told them "It was nice to see so many black girls in our dance class". There were three of us.
None of us saw it as a bad thing. In fact, the two girls were giggling because they interpreted it as them being "special". It wasn't until I was in the car with my mum telling her what the examiner said, that I thought about it a little more. She explained, as tentatively as you can to an eight-year old, that ballet dancers are often seen to have a certain type of body, and that body is more commonly seen in white girls, so the examiner was probably a little bit surprised.
Up until this point I'd never seen my body as different. Honestly, at that pre-pubescent stage of my life, my body really wasn't that different. Therefore, the whole situation seemed so alien to me. My innocent brain could not fathom how the colour of my skin determined how my body would turn out. In fact, up until this point I had never really taken into account the fact that ballet dancers fit a "mould" in the first place. It wasn't exactly dream crushing… I never wanted to be a professional ballerina and dance was just a fun escape for me, but I recall this as the first time that I started to take note.
Professional Ballets were noticeably disproportionate when it came to skin colour and body type, and once I noticed it in one career sector, it was easier to notice it in others. Was I different? Was life going to be more difficult for me just because of the colour of my skin?
I never really openly talk about racism. Not because I don't have an opinion, but because it's controversial subject matter can lead to massive backlash. Often due to something as simple as one misinterpreted sentence.
It seems so easy for someone's passionate stand regarding racial mistreatment to create more problems. They;re immediately labelled as "another angry black girl", or seen as being "one step away from a violent act" during a protest. I am not dispelling these tropes completely, because frankly all stereotypes come from a place of truth. However, to take the acts of the few and assume that a whole community will act the same way is ridiculous and unjust. You get angry and violent people everywhere, regardless of their race. However, we only associate certain stereotypes with certain "types" of people.
It is because of stereotyping such as this, that "Because I'm black" has become a trivialised statement as opposed to that of significant meaning. It is typically viewed as just another person playing "the race card" to get ahead or cause a fuss. However, there is so much more to it than that.
"We are essentially taking something that someone was born with, something that they cannot help or decide, and using it to determine their character and capability in life."
If you are a person of colour, be that black or otherwise, and you lose out on an opportunity to someone white, it is likely that the racial difference may cross your mind. In actuality, we all know that this isn't always the case. However, people of colour have had this racial prejudice drummed into them from an early age. We see the news, hear stories from family members, and study cases in history. Throughout our childhood we learn that the world is going to be harder for us because of the way that we look, and we just have to accept that.
Yes, you never know the real reason why you lost out on an opportunity; it could very well be that the person before you was better suited for it. However, when you've been taught your whole life that you will be discriminated against because of your skin, you are conditioned to go to that place in your mind.
When you strip back the concept of racial prejudice, it becomes clear how ludicrous it really is. Treating people differently because of how much melanin they have in their skin is absurd. We are essentially taking something that someone was born with, something that they cannot help or decide, and using it to determine their character and capability in life.
I was born in England, I've lived here my whole life, and I've had the same level of education as my white friends around me. However, I've been conditioned by society to understand that life could be harder for me than them because of the colour of my skin. There should be no "superior race" or pre-conceived notions of how a person will perform because of how they look. We are all human. We act how we act out of our own volition, not because of the shade of our skin, and that needs to be remembered.
But we've come so far, does racism still exist? In all honesty, if you had asked me a few months ago, I probably would have said that racism isn't as overtly present nowadays in Western countries. However, the acts in Charlottesville and the response that they were met with parallel the past in ways that I, a young black girl growing up in this world, find absolutely terrifying. There are always terrible incidents of discrimination and acts of hate. However, I liked to believe that the world was making progress in the right direction. At the moment, it looks like we're going backwards again, and it saddens me to think that this could be the case.
In terms of my own personal experience, I find myself reminded of my "disadvantaged" skin tone in the smaller things. I don't have as much choice as some of my friends when it comes to trying cheaper makeup brands… A lot of "dark" concealers and foundations are designed for those with "olive skin". I get asked "Where are you from?" followed by "But where are you really from?" when I respond saying that I'm from England (which I am). To some, this may seem "trivial" but they can have an impact on an impressionable child when she's had to grow up with them her whole life.
Being reminded of your "otherness" through many little things only reinforces the fact that life will be different for you. I've spent a lot of my life insecure about the way I look. Therefore, knowing that I can try as hard as I want but physically can't conform to the "western" standard of beauty really plays on my mind sometimes. It's getting better and I see drugstore makeup brands improving their ranges and people being more politically correct. However, it's still not perfectly equal. I wouldn't necessarily say that I have been a personal victim of overtly "racist" acts… However, I can't honestly say that I have never been reminded of the fact that my skin is seen as a disadvantage.
The world has made progress. There is absolutely no disputing that, but there is still a long way to go.
Hope you guys liked this, I wrote this a while ago because I rarely comment on political topics but I do have a lot of thoughts. I've been scared to post it for a while but I finally bit the bullet and did it, would love to hear what you think in the comments as this post really meant a lot to me!
Lots of love,
Jas xx
A really eye-opening post, thank you for sharing.
I feel like I've been dreadfully naïve for many years about just how real a problem racism still is in this country. It's only in the last sort of six months or so that I've really started to see the full scale and implications, and it saddens me deeply.
Thank you so much for reading and commenting. I feel like it can be easy to be naive and just assume that everything's fine because things are better than they used to be. It took terms for me – as a black girl – to come to the realisation myself. I'm glad you found this helpful.
Jas xx
Jasmine, I'm so glad you shared this, as I think it's so important to tackle these issues head on and move towards a world where equality really is something we all have. I did get a bit emotional reading this because I can imagine this was a tough one to write, but I'm so glad you did. Would love to read more of these types of posts from you too, you're always so good at debating these kinds of issues and I definitely agree with you. Progress is being made, but we do have a long way to go, and posts like these help to move forwards with that. Thank you! – Tasha
Tasha that means so much to me, I'm so glad you enjoyed it! It was slightly nerve-wrecking to write but I'm so happy with the response and might do more like this in the future! I'm so happy you liked it!
Jas xx
I am so glad you did write this Jasmine, it's something that needs to be shared, so thank you and it always makes me think and expand my own thoughts too. Would love to see more like this from you, and I'm sorry I've been so AWOL from blogging, slowly replying to all comments now!
No need to apologise! Take time for yourself!

A great post. I'm from England. I've not experienced racism in a personal capacity but I've seen others face it and unfortunately I thought we had moved on a lot. Since last June I think the UK has taken a major step backwards with the Brexit vote. I've seen a lot more incidents of racism and it makes me so ashamed. I hope we make more strides going in the right direction.
Thank you so much. I'd have to agree, I think brexit did set us back quite a bit, but hopefully we can move forward in the future.
Jas xx
Oh I hear you Jas! As a British born Indian I've had my fair share of interesting comments…
I too went to a private school and was one of 3 brown faces in my class by the end but for many years I was the only one, yet never felt different.
The biggest incident I remember was actually quite recent after Brexit. I was in Margate taking my class for a trip . And a drunken you told me to go back to where I came from. The (white) parents were just amazing… but my first thought was "go back? Where to? Birmingham?"
I'm lucky my kids are in such a multicultural society here. They don't look at people and judge by colour. And neither do their peers. We haven't made it a 'thing' either where we tell them about why they are 'different' but we've tried to teach them to celebrate the diversity out there xxx
I'm glad you related! It's horrible when people feel the need to outrightly say something regarding your race, as if it makes a difference to who you are as a person. It sounds like you're doing the most you can to make sure your children don't have to deal with that – it's great!
Jas xx
We're all trying over here! It's not about 'sticking together' but about accepting and living together really isn't it?
Exactly! Acceptance is the real thing that needs to be taught
Jas xx
Thank you for writing this. If you don't mind, I'd like to share it please? I feel pretty emotional reading it, and I think it's such an important thing for us all to be aware of so that we can do more to change things.
Thank you for reading it – I'm so glad that it made an impact. Of course you can share it, thank you for wanting to raise awareness.
Jas xx
So glad you did write and publish this post. We definitely need to talk more about these issues. Even though we live in diverse multicultural societies, there are still those who oppose this. We can only bring up our children to be more accepting and understanding in this matter. 🙂
Thank you so much for reading it! It's true, we are more diverse and multicultural than we used to be, but we could definitely still do with some diverse multiculturalism.
Jas xx
Yep loved this. The first time I realised my white privilege (and I'm ashamed that it took me so long) was going into Boots with a black friend to buy hair products & make-up whilst she just had to stand by & watch as there were no products suitable for her. I was shocked, but she was completely resigned to it (this was back in the 90s & I think Boots is a bit better now, but the small Boots near my home now still doesn't stock anything suitable). So glad you wrote this. I get so angry when white people do not realise their privilege (and in much more serious ways than shampoo selection). It also boils my blood when a white person commits an atrocious act (I.e. Las Vegas shootings) that they're labelled a "lone wolf" but when a black person or a Muslim does something similar the common discourse taints all black people or all Muslims. It makes no sense & it's so disappointing. Sorry rambling comment. Hope I made some sense! Great post x
You made a lot of sense and I agree with everything you said! I know you only labelled it as a small thing, but even the small things like the shampoo are everyday reminders of disadvantage – it's really great that you're aware of it!

Yes exactly. It's the "small", every day things that (I imagine) can wear you down the most. Where I went to college in London, I was one of only two white people in my class so I was blessed with lots of lovely friends who were very patient in teaching me what everyday life was like for them and I'm so grateful for it. It really opened my eyes xx
Thank you so much for sharing this. I sincerely hope that someday your experiences will no longer happen to children as they're growing up – but until that happens, I'm grateful for you being brave enough to share your story, so that everyone who thinks these things "no longer happen" can realize that we still have a long way to go as a world.
Yeah I hope that it changes soon too. Thank you so much for reading – I'm hoping that posts like these can make people more self aware!

I shed a little tear, because I can really relate with a lot you have been saying. Just want to say that you are brilliant and a incredibly strong person. You inspire me! 🙂

Awww thank you so much Marc that honestly means the world to me! It's horrible that you relate, but also let's both hope that the world moves forward 🙂

I am so glad you wrote this post, you related the problem without any hates and that made your post powerful. Hope the society will keep improving and solve this issue.
I'm so glad you enjoyed it – I was really trying to get the issue across without hate and I'm glad that came through. Hopefully we will improve!

This is a fantastic post! It's honest and balanced, you've taken a rational, reasonable approach that is often missing in discussions about race. I also really agree with your views! I think this is exactly how the subject of racism should be approached and written about 😊
Thank you so much! I'm glad it came across like that as that was the vibe that I was trying to project.

Thank you for your courage and thoughtfulness. I really appreciate this. I especially liked your paragraph on how "ludicrous the concept is." Anger, fear, hatred, and "isms" and phobias…racism, sexism, classism, xenophobia… seem to be bubbling up in the US right now, as well as Europe, and the only good aspect I can see is the counter-reaction when it leads to greater compassion and understanding.
I'm so glad you appreciated this. It's true, but at least we have the counter-reaction.

Thanks for sharing Jasmine. It's easy for some to say 'oh, I don't see colour, I see everyone the same', but right now colour discrimination and racism is everywhere. It seems like on a bigger picture that it's improving, but when you look at the total picture it's still very much evident.
For some people racism plays a huge part in their lives and we can't ignore that. Even just the fact that makeup brands are still claiming to be inclusive, when it's blatantly obvious they haven't even tried.
It's wrong and strange that white privelage exists and in most cases goes so unchecked.

Thank you so much for your comment! I find it weird voicing these things and it's nice to hear that they make sense.
Hey, I'm Jasmine Burke. A girl in her twenties fresh out of Uni that's trying to write in any way that she can. I go under the branch of "lifestyle" but honestly, you can find pretty much anything on here.
Sorry. No data so far.

The word "keto" often has negative associations for people living with diabetes, especially Type 1. DKA, diabetic ketoacidosis, is a life-threatening condition arising when the body produces too many ketones. So how does entering ketosis deliberately through a conscientious diet differ from entering it accidentally? The answer has to do with the level of ketones, the former causing "regulated and controlled production" and the latter causing an overabundance.
Heart disease. The connection between the ketogenic diet and cardiovascular disease risk factors is complicated. Many studies have found that the keto diet can lead to significant reductions in total cholesterol, increases in HDL cholesterol levels, decreases in triglycerides levels, and reductions in LDL cholesterol levels, as well as potential improvements in blood pressure levels.
There is a reason why we store hundreds of thousands of calories in the form of fat in our body and only about 2000 calories in the form of glucose (with only a small amount of this useable by the brain). The reason is simple - The body prefers fat as its fuel source. Mark Sisson explains this in his article 'A metabolic Paradigm Shift, or Why Fat is the Preferred Fuel for Human Consumption'.
On the flip side of the previously mentioned side effect, some people might experience minor issues with diarrhea in the first few days. This can simply be a result of your body adjusting to the macronutrient ratio change. In other cases, some people make the mistake of limiting their fat intake along with their carbs, which makes your intake of protein too high and can lead to diarrhea.
The keto diet has a massive fan base that has grown at least in part due to the popular Netflix documentary The Magic Pill, which touts a trove of promising keto health benefits. But the fact of the matter is that most of the studies on the keto diet are premature. Meaning: They're in small populations of humans, or they're in rats. (And you are very different from a rat.)
Ok. I have MCT oil. It's day six. I got a metallic taste in my mouth last night (day 5), and have had 2 hypoglycemia attacks over night (took small amount of OJ and some 2 tbsp of flaxseed meal with half & half). Slowly felt better throughout the day. Bought just about all the adrenal support products you recommend this a.m. My main issue since last night: my heart has been pounding, non stop. I read it might be cortisol induced reflexive hypoglycemia or something? I've never been diagnosed with adrenal exhaustion, but I am noticing tiredness and weight gain (I'm 47). So, the adrenal exhaustion perhaps is self diagnosed (I'm know, so annoying for a physician to hear! I hate saying it myself). But, I'm wondering, if I'm just perimenopausal instead, should I continue on keto? If so, will the heart pounding resolve after a certain time? (Days? Weeks?) Plesse excuse how long this is. Just trying to anticipate questions.
Because SO much brain development and growing happens in 0-5, I think that having an abundance of calories, even if they are stored as fat for a while, is a good problem to have. More often than not, a growth spurt, picking up a new fascination with a sport or activity, and normal development will even out children's weight as they approach school age.
Where is the science? And if insolin intolerance is a diabetic problem why keep trying to regulate insolin? The stuff isn't working because your patients are not getting better just deteriorating slower while you make more money keeping them on drugs!!!!! Your hole point is ketosis is bad cause they don't have to see you after they adjust off the medication that keeps them having to see people like you!!! I have been eating keto for 6 months and feel amazing!!! These people are twisting the truth to keep you sick for there own pockets!!!!!!
The keto diet involves getting up to 80 percent of daily calories from sources of healthy fat, a significant change for most of her patients who were accustomed to running on carbs, caffeine and sugar for energy. It became clear that something else had to be adjusted in order to prevent the side effects associated with the keto diet. This is when she came up with the idea to focus on restoring alkalinity first and foremost.
In some ways, it's similar to the Atkins diet, which similarly boosts the body's fat-burning abilities through eating only low-carb foods, along with getting rid of foods high in carbs and sugar. Removing glucose from carbohydrate foods will cause the body to burn fat for energy instead. The major differences between the classic keto and the Atkins diet is the former emphasizes healthier keto fats, less overall protein and no processed meat (such as bacon) while having more research to back up its efficacy.
The keto diet restricts carbs so much that anyone who is on blood sugar lower medication or who has type 1 or type 2 diabetes must consult his or her doctor before making such a severe dietary change. As the body adapts to low-carb dieting, medication dosages and treatment plans will have to be revised, and blood sugar levels must be carefully monitored.
These findings were confirmed in another interesting study. Researchers compared the effects of the low-carbohydrate diet to the effects of a combination of a low-fat diet and orlistat (a weight-loss and blood pressure lowering medication) on blood pressure. The researchers stated that the low-carbohydrate dietary intervention "was more effective for lowering blood pressure."

"Those with type 1 diabetes should avoid a ketogenic diet," warns Joseph Galati, MD, a hepatologist at the Liver Specialists of Texas in Houston, "Many patients with type 1 diabetes have some degree of renal impairment, and handling the build-up of ketones and acids in the body may cause too much stress on the kidneys. Of course, any pregnant women with diabetes, especially those requiring insulin should avoid such an extreme diet given the low glucose levels will be a constant [health] threat."
Incidentally , there's a very informative article on the bbc website about one of the last remaining hunter/gather societies left in the world, living in Tanzania. They have amazing gut health and no t2d. Would you like to guess at the type of diet they follow? This would be the caveman diet that the writer mentions, and yes these people might not live as long as us but the cause of death is never a lack of motivation to stay on a keto diet.
A popular keto supplement are exogenous ketones (popularly called "keto diet pills") that may help you achieve results earlier as well as remain in that state. (Don't confuse exogenous ketones with raspberry ketones, as the latter don't raise ketone levels in the body or mimic endogenous ketones, so you wouldn't use raspberry ketones in your regimen.)
Avocados are the poster child of "good fats." This type of fat, often found in plant-based foods, can be separated into polyunsaturated fats (found in fish and walnuts) and monounsaturated fats (found in avocados, flaxseed oils, nuts and seeds). There's evidence that replacing saturated fats with "good" unsaturated fats can lower the risk of heart disease and help prevent insulin resistance.4
While it's not necessarily dangerous, bad breath is a known side effect of entering ketosis. When you're taking in a lot of fat, your liver metabolizes it and eventually converts it into smaller ketone bodies. These ketones (including acetone — yep, like nail polish remover acetone) will circulate in your body and diffuse into your lungs. Your body wants balance, so you'll exhale ketones to avoid build-up in your bloodstream. Those compounds are what cause keto breath: a metallic-tasting, somewhat stinky side effect.
Sleep improvements are a bit more of a mystery. Studies have shown that ketogenic dieting improves sleep by decreasing REM and increasing slow-wave sleep patterns. While the exact mechanism is unclear, it likely is related to the complex biochemical shifts involving the brain's use of ketones for energy combined with other body tissues directly burning fat.
If you're science oriented, you can also try his 2008 book "Good Calories, Bad Calories". For a more journalistic view on the events that led to fat phobia starting in the 1950's (as well as the joke that is the Mediterranean Diet), there is also Nina Teicholz's 2014 book "The Big Fat Surprise." Be sure to check out youtube for some of these folks' lectures and discussions. They are not advocating whacky stuff.
In this study, researchers compared the impact of a low-carbohydrate diet and three other diets on blood pressure and other measures of cardiovascular fitness in women. After the 12 month trial, all subjects who successfully completed their respective diet experienced notable reductions in body mass, triglycerides, and LDL cholesterol. Those in the low-carbohydrate diet group, however, had the best results.
The keto diet also appears to help induce autophagy, which helps clear damaged cells from the body, including senescent cells that serve no functional purpose but still linger inside tissues and organs. In animal studies when rats are put on the ketogenic diet, autophagic pathways are created that reduce brain injury during and after seizures. (21)
We recently published an article documenting the grim long-term effects of low-carbohydrate diets, in which we explain the evidence-based research showing that low-carbohydrate diets high in fat and protein including meat, dairy products, eggs, fish, and oil actually worsen diabetes health, increase cancer risk, increase cholesterol, increase atherosclerosis, harden blood vessels, and increase all-cause mortality.
This is a helpful article. But there are some inaccurate things too. I have type two diabetes and use a keto genie diet to lose weight (45# so far). I was able to get my cholesterol down, Triggs down, and my A1C to 6! I went off and followed a Mediterranean diet for a year. I gained back 15# and my diabetes got worse. So I am back on keto. I am using a closer to Mediterranean keto both then and now.
Certain Cancers Keto may be used in combination with chemotherapy and radiation, some studies have suggested, including one published in November 2018 in the journal Oncology. (12) But ultimately more studies are needed to determine if keto can play a role in cancer therapy, and patients should not use it as a stand-alone treatment or without a doctor's consent.
Research shows there is a weak relationship between levels of dietary cholesterol and blood cholesterol.6 The effect isn't the same for everyone either. There are "responders" and "non-responders" to dietary cholesterol; some people experience higher fluctuations in blood cholesterol levels according to the amount of cholesterol they eat, while others are more stable regardless of diet.
From an outpatient clinic, we recruited 28 overweight participants with type 2 diabetes for a 16-week single-arm pilot diet intervention trial. We provided LCKD counseling, with an initial goal of <20 g carbohydrate/day, while reducing diabetes medication dosages at diet initiation. Participants returned every other week for measurements, counseling, and further medication adjustment. The primary outcome was hemoglobin A1c.
"the mitochondria – work much better on a ketogenic diet as they are able to increase energy levels in a stable, long-burning, efficient, and steady way. Not only that, a ketogenic diet induces epigenetic changes[6] which increases the energetic output of our mitochondria, reduces the production of damaging free radicals, and favours the production of GABA"
More recently, a meta-analysis was published in the Journal of Neurology that assessed the impact of the ketogenic diet in treating epilepsy. It included a total of 19 studies with a total of 1084 patients. After analyzing the data, the researchers noted that the patients who stayed on the diet had a 2.25 times greater probability of treatment success (at least a 50% reduction in seizures).
Researchers believe that the ketogenic diet can also help patients with schizophrenia to normalize the pathophysiological processes that are causing symptoms like delusions, hallucinations, lack of restraint and unpredictable behavior. One study found that the keto diet lead to elevated concentrations of kynurenic acid (KYNA) in the hippocampus and striatum, which promotes neuroactive activity. Some studies even point to the elimination of gluten as a possible reason for improved symptoms, as researchers observed that patients with schizophrenia tended to eat more carbohydrates immediately before a psychotic episode. (19)
Also, diabetics should not undertake the diet without medical supervision. "Trying a ketogenic diet has the power to drastically and quickly lower blood glucose levels," says Santos-Prowse. "If a person with diabetes is taking blood glucose-lowering medications, their doctor needs to be on board to help with adjusting or stopping the medications as needed."
All of our cells need fuel to function. This fuel comes from three sources: fat, carbohydrates and protein, called macronutrients. Too much protein without fat puts us at risk for a handful of complications, so protein can never healthily serve as a primary source of fuel. We are left then with fat and carbohydrates as the main providers of energy – the energy that allow us to do everything from breathing and blinking as we veg out on the couch to swimming the English Channel. Our cells' preferred fuel comes from carbohydrates, which are easily converted to glucose, which, in turn, is readily converted to energy. This is why athletes "carb load" before they compete. Peak performance occurs when the body has plenty of glucose and glycogen stores available at hand. When glycogen runs out, that's when the body turns to fat. When there is no more blood sugar for our cells to consume, they seek an alternative form of energy. This energy comes from ketones, which are compounds our body produces from stored fat. So a ketogenic diet is one that is high in fat and very low in carbohydrates, resulting in the production of ketones to be used for fuel instead of glucose.
WOW. I guess I must be a very special, highly motivated patient then. I, of course, would never have said that about myself. My high motivation is trying to get over the hatred of food that being Diabetic gave me. I don't feel that way anymore, and am finally happy cooking, again. (My doctor DID tell me exactly that, BTW. Even to the extent of telling me to not include the tsp of agave that I was having in my coffee once a day because sugar is sugar.)
I've practiced Keto diet and nothing is wrong with me. Yes the first few months there were side effects like headache etc… but after that your gonna get smooth. Keto diet are for those people who are badly in need to get in shape like those who have obesity because no matter what the consequences are, People who have been hanging by a thread because of obesity will do everything to make all things right again and that's why Keto diet works for me.
Starting in the 1970s, when the Atkin's Diet book was first published, low-carb diets have caught the attention of many people trying to lose weight and improve their health. The ketogenic diet (KD), which is both very low in carbohydrates and also very high in fats, has become one of the most talked-about diets in the past several years. With its rise in popularity, it's no surprise that the keto diet has recently been the focus of dozens of research studies.
Ketogenic diet for diabetics is a highly controversial topic, but we will break down everything here for you! As a Certified Diabetes Educator (CDE), I have to tell you from the start I will have a biased view here. Sorry, but I feel that I need to be completely honest right up front! I will however, present all the evidence that is available currently on the subject.
I can't tell you how often through the years I have been asked the question, "If I lose 20 pounds, will I no longer have diabetes?" Let me answer this very clearly, there is currently no cure for diabetes. Once you have been diagnosed, you have it for life. Every day, our most brilliant researchers are busy searching for a cure though. There is good news however; you can manage your diabetes, get it under control, prevent all the complications of diabetes and live a normal, healthy life.
"Studies have shown that the ability to stick to a diet is more important for long-term success than the type of diet that's followed," says Yawitz. "Keto is incredibly restrictive and is particularly tough for those who have frequent social engagements or are prone to carb cravings." The Mediterranean diet allows you to eat carbs, like as many fruits and veggies as you want, along with whole grains. Not to mention, the Mediterranean diet has been linked to a number of other health benefits, including a lower risk of Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease, certain types of cancer, and heart disease, according to the Mayo Clinic.
At this point, I'm searching for the secret sauce that will allow me to follow Wheatbelly or Keto or any other low carb diet, but not develop any health problems. When you have 80 lbs to lose, it's discouraging to be told that you can't be on the only diet that has ever worked for more than a few months. I'll need a year or more just to get to goal weight.
The problem is: it flies in the face of the way we have been taught. Our society (as an American), and our medical community, have preached for years that FAT is bad, and you should limit it. However, recent FACTS beg to differ. So many people rail against the keto diet because they just feel that it can't be good…after all, you eat so much fat on it, it can't be good for you! Facts are facts…they don't care about your feelings. Fat is not the enemy. Sugar is.
Carbohydrates: Historically, a targeted keto diet consists of limiting carbohydrate intake to just 20–30 net grams per day. "Net carbs" is the amount of carbs remaining once dietary fiber is taken into account. Because fiber is indigestible once eaten, most people don't count grams of fiber toward their daily carb allotment. In other words, total carbs – grams of fiber = net carbs. That's the carb counts that matter most.
But your heart health might depend on what you actually eat. Research published in the New England Journal of Medicine suggests that low-carb diets based mostly on plant sources of fat and protein (like avocados or nuts) can lower heart disease risk by 30 percent. But those benefits didn't hold for people who ate mostly animal-based proteins and fats. (Think: bacon, butter, and steak.)
Wondering how many carb foods you can eat and still be "in ketosis"? The traditional ketogenic diet, created for those with epilepsy consisted of getting about 75 percent of calories from sources of fat (such as oils or fattier cuts of meat), 5 percent from carbohydrates and 20 percent from protein. For most people a less strict version (what I call a "modified keto diet") can still help promote weight loss in a safe, and often very fast, way.
It's also common for people starting the diet to experience flu-like symptoms, such as headaches and fatigue. This side effect is so common that there's a name for it: the keto flu. "You shed a ton of water weight at first, which can lead to dehydration," Nisevich Bede explains. This can worsen the symptoms of the keto flu. To counter it, she recommends staying hydrated and loading up on electrolytes through electrolyte tablets.
Clinical trials that compare various diets' outcomes among patients with mental health conditions are sorely lacking. For example, while currently there are 2822 clinical trials registered at Clincaltrials.gov for schizophrenia, none of them are examining the ketogenic diet's impact on this debilitating chronic condition (three however, are examining gluten-free diets.) Likewise, there are NO ketogenic interventions among 1180 clinical trials for bipolar disorder, 2711 studies for anxiety, and 5370 for depression. (Although there are still a number of trials for these conditions that are looking at "low-fat healthy diets" or "Mediterranean diets" with plenty of fruits, grains and vegetables.)
"It's unhealthy and unsustainable," they say. "How can a high-fat diet help you lose weight? It's dangerous for the heart, increases the risk of ketoacidosis, leads to poor mineral intake and electrolyte imbalance," they say. But the ketogenic diet has a well-established history of aiding in disease treatment. It has been used to help people with epilepsy (especially children) since the early 1900's, and more recently, it has been used to manage type-2 diabetes (since it lowers the need for insulin therapy).1
A ketone body (KB) is a byproduct formed during the conversion of fatty acids to fuel. Some fatty acids are oxidized by the liver for energy production. Others can be partially oxidized to form the substrate acetoacetate, which is then converted to beta-hydroxybutyric acid; collectively, these are termed ketone bodies. Ketones can be used by all tissue containing mitochondria, which includes muscle and the brain.
