In this episode I'm chatting with Rachel Gregory from Killin It Keto. Rachel is a Board-Certified Nutrition Specialist, Athletic Trainer, Strength and Conditioning Coach, and author of the 21-Day Ketogenic Diet Weight Loss Challenge book. She's also the co-creator of the Killin It Fat Fueled program to transition your family to a healthy high-fat, low-carb lifestyle (use code "CRW" for 10% off). Rachel and I discuss how she got interested in the ketogenic diet, why it's important to adjust keto for your preferences and lifestyle, and nuances of macros on keto. We talk about increasing carbohydrates for women, the proliferation of carb-phobia in the low-carb community, if we really need to fear protein, and if someone should go paleo or keto first. We also talk about the "keto police" on Instagram, why there's more to health than food, who should fast and who shouldn't, what food freedom means, what to do when your brand name is a style of eating, and more. You can find more from Rachel at killinitketo.com and on Instagram (@killinitketo). You can also find her book, 21-Day Ketogenic Diet Weight Loss Challenge, on Amazon.
