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, […]

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. […]

The overwhelming consensus of Keto Chow 1.5 is tastes like melted ice cream I agree and decided to see what would happen if I tried making it back into ice cream. So I mixed up 6 meals worth of Cookies&Cream and put it into (one of) my ice cream makers. One of my daughters did […]

Doing something like Keto Chow in a hotel room presents some interesting issues. I’ve done another “soylent” in hotels before and Keto Chow while camping. I’m using a couple tools to make this all work in my hotel room. A refrigerator. Doesn’t come standard in the room though a quick call to the front desk […]

So I tried using Coconut Cream in my Keto Chow instead of Heavy Cream. It works but it wasn’t very pleasant. Since many people do Keto Chow at a higher calorie amount (2000 calories a day instead of 1300) I decided I would try using enough coconut cream to hit 2358 calories/day to see if it’s […]

A comment on another post asked about the feasibility of using coconut cream for Keto Chow. It just might work. I looked into “Trader Joe’s Coconut Cream”: I calculated for 250ml of this Coconut Cream for a target kCal/day of 1300 (same as 50ml of heavy cream. It ups the NET carbs from 12g to […]

Time to post a video of mixing up a week of Keto Chow. It’s very similar to my earlier videos for People Chow and Ketofood. You can find the recipe for Keto Chow here. There’s also a video showing what to do with the powder, mixing up 3 meals here. I mix all 7 days […]

This is adapted from a really good write-up on reddit.com/r/soylent – If you want to know more about why Ketogenic Diets work, check out my review of “Why We Get Fat: And What to Do About It.” The aim with nutritional ketosis is to get under a certain threshold of carbohydrates so your body is […]

Last week I posted about my disappointment with Dymatize “Gourmet” having too many carbs because I couldn’t try their Peanut Butter Chocolate flavor. I decided then to grab a 16 ounce jar of PB2 Powdered Peanut Butter (they also make a much smaller 6.5 ounce container it’s nearly the same price as the 16) and try […]

One of the best things about Keto Chow is that you can customize the amount of calories in your keto meal replacement. On the Keto Chow page I have this: This recipe has the added benefit of being customizable for people with different caloric requirements. Without any oil or cream it’s right around 500 calories/day […]

Just for fun I decided to see what making Keto Chow into a solid would be like. Presenting: Keto Chow cookies. I did People Chow cookies several months ago so I thought I’d try that form. I just put a meal’s worth of powder into a bowl, added the oil and the heavy cream and […]

A few days ago there was a post on the Soylent Discourse forum about using a popcorn butter pump for oil. The one linked was far larger than I would like and is designed for gallon size containers. I wanted one that would hold a few days (or weeks) of oil and would be practical on my desk […]
