Dirty keto is the term used for following a keto diet without concern for food quality. For instance, order a burger from a fast food restaurant, throw away the carb-loaded bun, and only eat the burger and cheese.
Dirty keto will never win any healthy eating awards, but can it be used as a way to keep your blood sugar low enough to stay on track when nothing else is available? And would it really be all that bad to just eat the burger with the bun?
While wearing a non-prescription CGM (Continuous Glucose Monitor), I went to Mcdonald’s and picked up a few cheeseburgers to see how the separated ingredients of a fast-food cheeseburger would affect my blood sugar and what would happen when I ate the bun and burger combo. Here’s what happened.

Anxiety is a growing concern among all age groups. There are natural remedies for reducing anxiety. Exercise will work, and breathing techniques may help, but what about food?
There are foods that provide the brain with nutrients that lower anxiety symptoms. And the good news for low-carb dieters is that the anxiety-easing foods I’m about to share have fewer than 10 carbs per serving.

A couple of months ago, I used my non-prescription CGM to see how plain popcorn would affect my blood sugar level. The result was very poor. It shot my blood sugar straight up and then just as quickly dropped the level to a point lower than my starting point.
Sharing that result spurred a lot of questions about buttered popcorn. Since butter is pure fat, which is a nutrient that does not spike blood sugar, would adding butter to the popcorn make it a better snack for blood sugar control? Well, I ran the test. It should be better, right? It was not what I expected. Here are the results.

More than half of us are all-day grazers, eating for 15 hours or longer every day. We also eat the majority of our calories – more than 35% of them – at night after 6 pm (1).
That late-night eating comes with a number of metabolic consequences, and a new study shows that it actually increases hunger, reduces the calories you burn throughout the day, and leads to changes in fat tissue that make weight loss harder.
If weight loss and better metabolic health are your goals, it pays to have a strategy for handling the hours before bedtime. This blog post shares what to eat, when to fast, and a few tips to make the whole thing easy to follow, more enjoyable, and effective.

This comment was posted under one of my YouTube videos, “I hate cooking. This is why I can’t ever stick to a healthy diet because a lot requires some type of cooking. ugh”
Can you relate?
I want to show you that cooking does not need to be time-consuming, difficult, or include a bunch of ingredients that you’ve never heard of before.
In fact, if you can smoosh ingredients together and stick them in the oven, you can be eating a healthy meal in less than 30 minutes that is keto and kid-friendly. Here we go.
