Well known, award winning television personality Dr Michael Mosley’s best-selling book “Fast 800 Keto” now has a companion recipe book written by his wife, Dr Clare Bailey. This well written and research cook book offers a variety of low-carb Mediterranean-style recipes, which helps reduce appetite and hence accelerated weight loss. It promotes intermittent fasting, keto and the importance of protein, which will result in more energy, better sleep and ultimately better mental and general health.

Readers new to the concept of ketogenic diet, whereby the body shifts from burning carbs to burning fat for fuel, will find this a most interesting and helpful guide to the Keto way of eating and safe weight loss; it’s about simple, good food, which as far as possible is cooked from scratch.

The Fast 800 Keto Recipe Book provides the science behind this alternative approach to sustainable weight loss by providing ways to get back to eating real, non-processed food.  The recipes in this book are usually made from easy-to-find ingredients and improve protein intake while reducing the consumption of starchy carbohydrates and sugars. The Introduction contains a helpful section on which foods to avoid and the ones to embrace. By including ‘A Flexible, Three-stage Programme’ the author guides the reader through the implementation of the Keto diet.   

Each of the 150 easy to follow nutritious recipes includes a guide to the number of calories, a ‘cook’s tip’ and how to expand it if it’s being served on a ‘Non-Fast Day’. Those new to this diet will appreciate the ‘Index of Recipes by Calories’, to assist its easy implementation.

It’s a must for people, who want to have a healthier diet and life style.
