KA: I like that this cookbook has tons of information about the ketogenic lifestyle. The beginning is filled with lots of information but it is repeated throughout which leads to some confusion. It could be a bit more concise and orderly in my opinion. The recipes are all very appetizing but many seem overly complicated for the average person to make for a regular breakfast or daily meal. If every single recipe requires learning a new thing or multiple steps it is discouraging to someone making a drastic lifestyle change as well. It's really not sustainable. The idea of this book seemed to be for a person being introduced to keto to use this plan for 30 days in an effort to help their body and encourage them to pursue thus as a lifestyle. The recipes overall are not for a beginner and would most likely wear out the average beginner and discourage them from this lifestyle.

Amazon CustomerAmazon Customer: I just completed Maria’s 30 day ketogenic cleanse and IT’S THE BEST DECISION I EVER MADE! If you have been thinking of trying her cleanse, I urge you to start now! There is no time like the present. You will be so happy you started right when you did and will be a totally different, more improved version of yourself at the end!

I am ecstatic to report I lost a total of 8.6 lbs and 6.5 total inches all around from my hips, waist, and thighs! I was not sure what results I would get but I am MORE THAN HAPPY with today’s overall results! I cannot wait to continue this way of eating, while adding in some PSMF days. Maria and Craig made it so easy to make this a sustainable lifestyle. All of the recipes are out of this world delicious. I now feel like a chef in my own fancy restaurant every day! Everyone that has tasted what I have made from either the 30 day ketogenic cleanse cookbook, Art of Fat Loss e book, dairy free cook book, or restaurant favorites cook book can not get over how delicious and satisfying the food is!

Fi: The background of how Keto works on the body was thoroughly grounded and well explained, it all seems pretty convincing. The recipes were clear, varied and well laid out. Picture after each one instead of before it was a little strange though. The case for what goes wrong in carb heavy diets with sugar highs and slumps made perfect sense. So I have rated on the basis that those who want to follow a Keto diet can be assured this is a great resource. But I wanted to figure out if I could follow it.
1. Most of us follow a recipe once or twice a week. This requires a recipe for every meal. There is a fair amount of science to it so quantity is important.
2. This will mean no more carbs or sugar. They will become lethal factors in your diet if you waiver from this high fat medium protein diet. Adding carbs and sugar will prove significantly worse when combined with high fat and lead to greater weight gain than if you hadn’t started down this road at all.
3. There is a LOT of fat in the recipes. Albeit that they contain good meat and certain fruit and veg which are allowed. And no root or starch veg allowed, berries or apples.
I tried a little over a weekend. Yes it feels...

MM in Wisconsin: I bought this book digitally last night for a few important reasons. 1) I respect Maria Emmerich. I have been doing keto for a number of months and have a few of her books. She is very informed, and does a lot of recipe experimentation that busy people don't have the time/inclination to do. 2) The recipes in this book are nut and dairy free. Having been eating A LOT of dairy on a standard keto diet, I've become very inflamed and realized that I actually have a dairy intolerance...mainly, rheumatoid arthritis has flared up, something I did not know I even had. I chose this book because I thought it would help me learn a lot of non-dairy options...I think it WILL do that.

So, I have not made anything in this book yet (full disclosure). The reason I'm already rating this book a THREE already is because I work from home and have a flexible schedule, yet even I cannot imagine cooking everything needed on this 30 day plan. I have spent the last hour and a half looking at the recipes and figuring out what I might do. It's just overwhelming! To illustrate my point...to eat on the very first day you will have be making a fried shredded cabbage & bacon "rosti" for your first...

iloveshoppingonineiloveshoppingonine: I purchased this book because I wanted to do a cleanse while on keto. I have been off and on low carb diets for a couple of years and I find that this is the best way of eating for me. I started a keto diet staying below 30 grams of net carbs about 5 weeks before starting this cleanse. During this time I lost 8 lbs. I started the cleanse using this book 1 week ago and I have lost 7 lbs. I was worried about being able to fast and not eat breakfast but I haven't had a problem. My appetite has decreased and I feel much better.

The pros:
*Beautiful pictures for recipes
*Great tasting recipes (haven't found any I haven't liked; however, there are several we tried this week that are going to go in our regular routine)
*Great information that is easy for the average person to understand
*Shopping lists that take all the guess work out
*Meal plans that can easily be changed for someone who needs less prep time, doesn't like certain ingredients, etc
*The author keeps a facebook page for support and answers questions asked by people doing the cleanse
*The author is obviously well versed on this topic
*Started cooking with fresh ingredients and spices. The only...
