The ketogenic diet is emerging as one of the most popular diets for health and weight loss, and for good reason. No other diet has the same benefits for health concerns ranging from obesity and type 2 diabetes to Alzheimer’s disease to cancer—not to mention its positive effects on athletic performance. In The Ketogenic Bible, Jacob Wilson and Ryan Lowery offer a comprehensive look at the ketogenic diet and the fat-burning state it induces: ketosis. It’s the most complete source for information on keto—not only how to follow a ketogenic diet but also how it affects the bodily systems and processes that are at the core of how we feel and function every day. Their approach is based on the wide range of scientific research that’s been conducted on ketosis, including the research they’re doing at their own Applied Science and Performance Institute. Through their work with people who are switching to a ketogenic diet, they also know the most common concerns and questions, so they’ve included practical tips and advice for following keto, along with more than 75 easy and delicious recipes. No other book offers such an exhaustive, science-based view of what it means to follow a ketogenic diet. This is your one-stop shop for the most tested and accurate information on the ketogenic diet and for answers to all your questions.

5.0 out of 5 stars Keto for better life performance!
Reviewed in the United States on February 1, 2019
Verified Purchase
I absolutely love both the authors and thier personal stories. I found Dr. Jacob Wilson through my educational pursuits in the Keto diet and sports performance therein. Dr. Lowrey is truely amazing as well, and they both have such pure and loving intentions for human kind to heal from the travesties of diabetes, cancer and general ill health. Dr. Lowrey's own mother went through such a rough time with her own illnesses and Dr. Lowrey basically devoted his life to helping his mother regain her health and thats where his personal drive to educate, and his endless hours of research derived from. This book is written in a very thorough way, both in the education of the keto diet, as well as how to utilize the diet to allow one to have a better quality of life. Research these two authors and get a more extensive idea of who they are:) They have struggled immensely to bring forward thier knowledge and to share this content with the world, essentially devoting thier entire lifes work into human performance and what our bodies are capable of. As a nutritionist, master herbologist, personal trainer, and as someome who has invested thier entire adult life into researching and learning nutrition and human performance, this is my absolute favorite book on keto and on nutrition as a whole. I highly recommend it and can't say enough about its value.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hands Down the Best Reference and Definitive Guide to The Keytogenic Way of Life
Reviewed in the United States on July 26, 2018
Verified Purchase
There are chapters capturing in detail all aspects of the keytogenic lifestyle. All chapters have extensive bibliographies including the chapter on cooking.

This book was the last of a string of best sellers that I've purchased. While there many good books on what I'll call ketogenics, this one is very successfully comprehensive in its purview. Thusly, Lowery and Wilson provide enough detail on each aspect to satisfy even demanding readers. Should anyone desire more information the biography for each chapter provides many references not only books but also to published papers.

As a small point, I would like to have seen a graphic representation of the various fats that would be beneficial and perhaps not so beneficial for the ketogenic diet.

In the reviews provided for many books of this type, there sometimes are comments complaining that readers simply want to know ketogenic recipes. What such readers may not know or realize us that currently we sit a a point in dietary history such that a lot of what we have been told is incorrect. This has led to the development of various health problems some of which can be traced to ideas that were not valid.

This book excels at providing details in the use the keytogenic diet to provide powerful healing methodology towards inflammatory diseases.

Accordingly, I highly recommend this well written book.

Reviewed in the United States on March 6, 2023

It covers a lot of subjects. The references to scientific papers are many but not overwhelming, and make for differentiation compared to the mass trade books. It goes to more depth and has a good number of graphics and illustrations, and still is very readable. It includes recipes too. Most books on keto I’d rather borrow from the library, but this is one I’m happy to spend money on and have available at home.

4.0 out of 5 stars The writing is down to earth and easy to understand
Reviewed in the United States on August 19, 2017
Verified Purchase
After listening to a podcast with Ryan Lowery, I decided to preorder The Ketgenic Bible. Recently having changed up my diet and eating more keto friendly recipes, I wanted to have more of an understanding as to the history of the diet and the way that it works within your body. The authors of this book are very knowledgeable and have addressed many of the typical questions of eating this way. This book can be read as a straight read thru, or you can skip around depending on your interest in the topics. The writing is down to earth and easy to understand. I would recommend this book to anyone going on a keto diet that wants a better understanding. The only reason I have given it four and not five stars is because some of the recipes in the back. Many of them look good, but the dessert recipes heavily require the use of quest protein powder. Though quest is one of the better brand of protein powder I have tried in the past, I prefer to keep it out of my diet. It would be nice to have seen some desert recipes that didn't require the use of this ingredient. My husband doesn't have the same objections to the protein powder that I do, so I am sure we will periodically try them and they will be delicious! I would encourage others to read this book!

5.0 out of 5 stars The Very Best Reference and Resource Book on Ketognic Way of Life!
Reviewed in the United States on August 29, 2017

WOW In my hands is the BEST REFERENCE Guide to Ketogenic information I have seen. I have been working on being Ketogenic for over two years and totally Keto for over a year. I have sought counsel from the best. Attended and listen to many conferences and lectures EVERYTHING I could find. There are answers here to thing I had never thought to ask.
This is a must have if you or family and friends have health issues that Keto can treat. If using Keto for weight lost and are stalling the answers are here. The science is here the studies are here the stories are here.
Bonus- I had no idea there were recipes but there are plenty and the pictures are stunning. "Dry-Aged Steak with Duchess "Potatoes" and Pan Fried Okra". Brie Sirloin Sliders. Bacon-Wrapped Cajun Casserole. Cardamom Snickerdoodles with Maple Bourbon Carmel. Irish Cream Pistachio Cake Squares. Also included is great Basics stock and sauces recipes.

This book took years to be as comprehensive as it is and all backed up with science and data.
This is a must have for beginners, to the coaches, to the bloggers, to the medical professionals.
Treat yourself buy both I did, get Paper back it has beautiful food art pictures and the Digital Kindle version for quick reference and link searches.

Reviewed in Brazil on August 25, 2019

Um livro que se propõe a ser um guia da dieta cetogênica. De fato, o livro introduz muito bem a cetogênica, conta seu histórico e diversas aplicações.
Não é uma leitura simples. Pode ser para iniciantes, mas que já estão acostumados com os principais termos da área. Eu diria que é um livro nível intermediário, pois faz um compilado geral sem ser raso demais, mas não aprofunda muito em nenhum tema. O que é esperado já que a proposta é ser um guia.
Pra quem está em dia com as mais recentes pesquisas científicas no tema, pode não ter muita novidade. Para mim, que acabo não tendo tempo de acompanhar como gostaria, foi uma leitura muito rica. Cheia de referências mais atuais e insights interessantes.
