Only other one to add to the comprehensive list above is Keto Adapted by Maria Emmerich
WIKI: Book Recommendations
I would include both of Phinney and Volekās books-
The Art and Science of Low Carbohydrate Living: https://www.amazon.com/Art-Science-Low-Carbohydrate-Living/dp/0983490708/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1482707219&sr=1-1&keywords=phinney+and+volek
The Art and Science of Low Carbohydrate Performance: https://www.amazon.com/Art-Science-Low-Carbohydrate-Performance/dp/0983490716/ref=sr_1_2?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1482707253&sr=1-2&keywords=phinney+and+volek
My first book was Keto Clarity. I think thatās a good simply written Keto book.
I forgot to add the Ketogenic Diet by Lyle McDonald. @amber mentioned it which reminded me. It was probably one of the first science-oriented and widely available books when it came out.
Formatting suggestion for your list to make it easier to read. Try putting the title in bold and putting a space between entries.
@admins - Is there a way to create resource list as a way to have a curated list of recommended reading? I apologize if itās already out there and I missed it. This is a fabulous post, but it sure would be nice to have a permanent resource list that we could point folks to.
@sjbrouillard has a very good point. Honestly, most of the āResourcesā subjects might be better served this way.
Maybe Wiki style?
Iām with you there! Changed my life!!!
ME too. So far I LOVE it! Altered versions of my 3 year old recipes in there too. /strut
That stuff gets around!
I think a couple helpful books are by Julia Ross the Mood Cure and the Diet Cure you can also find some good talks by her on YouTube and I also like Dr Eric Bergs talks on the ketogenic diet on YouTube he has been living keto for a number of years and he looks pretty healthy to me ,he definitely shows you the science,he helped convince me this was a good path to follow, along with the 2 keto dudes of course,I think they would both be great guests on the podcast maybe even invite them to Ketofest
I
Mark Hyman also has the blood sugar solution book and blood sugar solution cookbook
Yes to Keto Clarity - easy to understand and read.
I am not a science minded person - I like simple explanations - I found Good Calories Bad Calories overwhelming for my brain!!!
Also Christine Cronau books are very easy to understand.
Eat Bacon, Donāt Jog: Get Strong. Get Lean. No Bullshit.

- easy to read in small chunks (5 minutes on my walk from parking lot to work)
- inspired me to try harder at keto
- gives some easy to follow tips and exercises
Great title just found my new guru,two of my favorite things eating Bacon and not jogging
Maria Emmerich has a NEW BOOK out! Just a couple of days ago. Iāve already read through it. It is a very nice guide to get you into ketosis for the first 30 days. I like it because the recipes are simple. Also, it is mostly dairy-free, which is important for many ketonians.
30 Day Ketogenic Cleanse!
Thanks for the recommendation going to have to check this one out ,sounds like a very practical guide
I made the original post into a wiki, if anyone would like to add to it. I didnāt get all the suggestions in there.
