Example of Ketogenic Diet

Typical Menu – Ketogenic

Being a vegetarian I have taken this example from a good source and used it as an example; however this is purely an example and can be manipulated to meet meat eater’s nutritional needs too. This table assumes you’re around 180 lbs. and you are beginning a Ketogenic Diet, starting at 12 calories per pound of bodyweight.

After 2 weeks you might have to adjust downwards to 10 or 11 calories per pound, until you find the calorie level that works for your body.

The number might eventually be as low as 8, especially if you are older with a slower metabolism.
