Despite publishing tons of podcasts and articles on ketosis, I still get a lot of questions about how to follow a keto lifestyle. I wanted to publish a book that answers all the most common questions about keto in one place. That’s why I decided to write Keto Answers, a definitive reference guide on ketosis and following the ketogenic diet.
Keto Answers addresses 268 questions about keto, ranging from beginner questions like “What is ketosis?” to advanced questions like “Can I do keto while breastfeeding?” It offers something to keto dieters of any knowledge level, and it’s perfect for answering questions that pop up as you progress on your keto journey.
And if you’re just starting that journey and this is your first time here, welcome!
My name is Dr. Anthony Gustin. I’m a board-certified chiropractor and functional medicine practitioner, as well as the founder of Perfect Keto.
Since I transitioned out of my clinical practice, I’ve made it my mission to help as many people as possible achieve optimal health and well-being.
I do this by creating educational pieces — such as this podcast episode — and by developing high-quality, clean, keto-friendly products that make living low-carb easier.
