Several months ago I got a letter from my health insurance company telling me that they thought I should start taking statins. Number A) That’s crazy! Number B) No freaking way am I taking statins, given what I know about their side effects. Number C) Are we looking at the same results? Because the ones […]

There was a great thread over on reddit “How do you explain Keto Chow?” – good stuff, but there were 2 responses that are awesome. I’m going to edit them so my kids can read them without their eyes melting and fix some spelling and grammar issues. It usually goes like this: ppl: Hey, WOW, […]

So what occasioned this rant? A new article published over on Vice.com: “We’re All Guinea Pigs in a Failed Decades-Long Diet Experiment.” The thought of a class action lawsuit against some company is tantalizing but are we also going to posthumously sue “Doctor”Ansel Keys and Senator George McGovern for their roles in all this? I’m going to move […]

First off: If you haven’t noticed – we’re rocking a new site address for the blog and main page: ketochow.xyz. We are also using a new shopping cart system. You can get to the new cart system at store.ketochow.xyz. Both platforms should be noticeably faster and more stable (and require less administrative oversight). I’ve put in redirects […]

Saw this on Instagram. The TL;DR is: Regular Snickerdoodle Keto Chow with 30g of puree pumpkin and some spices (I’d just use the “pumpkin spice” blend but I’m lazy like that). https://www.instagram.com/p/BJ0u3FIBXtb/ Share

I want to help people change their lives… and help them not go nuts in the process. Nutritional Ketosis (aka “Keto” or “Ketogenic Diet”) can be highly effective but it’s daunting, especially for beginners. Keto is the only thing I have ever tried that has had any lasting effect on my health and my weight. […]

There was an article posted on https://motherboard.vice.com/read/the-diy-forums-that-put-the-people-in-soylent today regarding the DIY site. Along with other things they mention that Keto Chow is currently the number 1 recipe on the site, it’s been that way for quite a while. I’m not sure the criteria used to decide “relevance” (the default sorting method), probably a combination of popularity, […]

I routinely check my web site logs for info on where people are coming from, sometimes it’s normal stuff like people coming from the Keto Chow subreddit. Other times it’s a bunch of people coming from somewhere new. Yesterday “Girl Eats Keto” published a review on Keto Chow: https://girleatsketo.com/index.php/2016/08/19/keto-chow-review/ She also has a more general […]

We went camping over the weekend. As usual, we ate a lot of bacon, sausage, and eggs (with hash browns for the kids, who aren’t doing keto). We were at Willard Bay, a freshwater reservoir that was built adjacent to the Great Salt Lake by erecting a dike – essentially a dam around the entire […]

Just saw this posted over on /r/keto, thought you’d all enjoy seeing it (make sure you check out the photo gallery). 350 to 225lbs. https://www.reddit.com/r/keto/comments/4vz0ew/svpic_update_down_125lbs_today/ Share

OK, so I was kicking around /r/keto and found this post which linked over to this recipe over on ketokarma.com. Seriously good stuff and inspiring! She has a wealth of great information, recipes, and video updates. If you’re looking into starting Keto, wanting some more info, motivation to keep going, or whatever – check it out! […]

Well, I figured this would happen when I posted about it back in May – Chocolate Mint is no more. We ran out of weeks and days this week. We have 40 of the samples left and then that’s it.  I’ve already removed it from the “Sample all the things” (though we have a couple with […]

Phineas and Ferb taught me to be careful about what I post online (they carved it into a meteor or something so it was really important) so I usually don’t post anything about going on vacation until after I get back. I’m back. UPDATE: here’s a video from our 2020 trip! We finally took our kids […]

If you’re familiar with Keto you probably won’t get too much out of it but Men’s Fitness has an article up about the Ketogenic Diet. That is all. Share

First off – All of the active flavors in all the sizes are switched over to Keto Chow 1.5 with acacia gum (which is good since everybody seems to really like it). There are still a few Butter Cream Toffee samples that are the old formulation but that’s because it’s been discontinued and I can’t […]

Last week when I was on vacation, I spent one morning updating the plugins on my site. It was super fun to do over a cellular connection but that’s vacation. Somehow while I was doing the updates I managed to deactivate credit card payments using Stripe. That meant you could still pay via Paypal, Credit […]
