Minimalist Keto Diet: A Simple Guide to Living and Loving the Keto Lifestyle: Minimalist Living, #3

By David Wright

Ketogenic Diet is a simple diet without any hassles. A great thing is that you take away all the empty calories from things like grains, starches and sugars and instead target nutrient-dense, satisfying food instead. As a direct result, you eat less food in volume. This translates to needing less space to store it. In addition, because of the effects of a ketogenic diet on hunger, you'll be able to simply lower the quantity of meals you eat per day. This diet offers a greater level of freedom from food, and if situation demands, you'll be able to easily fast for definite intervals of time without any issue.

Many people who have had health problems in the past have found Ketogenic diet to be quite magical. In a couple of weeks, they observe that switching to this diet helped them in lowering inflammation especially gastritis (inflammation of the gut lining) as well as joint pains, migraines and headaches. 

A great side-benefit of following a Ketogenic diet is that you don't need spend hours after hours working out in order to stay in shape or get ripped. This again gives you more time and energy to pursue other things that really matter to you. 
Both Minimalism and Ketogenic diet complement each other well as they are both based on intentionality, letting go of the excess and focusing on the essentials.

In this world of excess and information overload where we are constantly bombarded with health and fitness advice, Ketogenic diet is a simple strategy to take charge of our well-being and it's definitely worth considering or at least experimenting with.

In this book, you'll learn:

-How Minimalism and Ketogenic Diet complement each other?
-A Comprehensive Overview of the Ketogenic Diet
-Benefits of Ketogenic Diet
-What to Eat on Keto
-Foods to Avoid

Introduction

Our lives are full of stuff wherever we go whether it is at our home or in our workspace. Our world encourages both buying things and holding onto them. We seem to have this obsession with possessing things. And, sadly, we are reluctant to let go of what we already own. This leads to clutter, hoarding, and the unhealthy behaviors and thinking that comes with it. This attitude also permeates our thinking, our relationships, and consequently, our self-perception. We’ve jam-packed too much stuff into our lives, our minds, our interactions with others.

Thanks to clever advertising and persistent sellers we’ve become accustomed to wanting more, bigger, improved faster, more efficient products. We simply can’t get enough. There’s always more out there tantalizing us. Having the best, the latest, the longest, or the largest becomes a part of our identity.

Minimalism involves dealing with reality and becoming practical. Consider what is—not what you’d wish it to be. Break away from traditional thinking of what is expected of you by others and what you think you should do. Look at what is and decide what it can realistically become.

Minimalism as a lifestyle or a way of thinking means different things to different people. There is no checklist or rulebook for becoming a minimalist. However, we all need to establish what becoming minimalist means to each one of us.

People who espouse a minimalist attitude want to live with less—less possessions, smaller space, fewer responsibilities, reduced stress. When you become a slave to what you own and the responsibilities you’ve taken on, then life becomes less about living happily and more about juggling all the balls in the air.

If you shed the things you own that have become crushing obligations in terms of money, time, labor, and/or worry then it feels like a huge burden has been lifted off from your shoulders.

Becoming more minimalist seeks to shed those things which are not necessary and thus give our lives more intentional focus. When we physically minimize our possessions, there is a shift in our paradigm, a shift in our thinking about what is important not only in our setting but also in our beliefs. We change our perception towards our problems and solutions and we look at them differently. We start valuing things, thoughts, idea, and concepts in a different
