KETO!
Many people who know me, are well aware of my journey on the Ketogenic diet. The reason I am so passionate and persuaded about this diet is because I did not hear about this from any person, but rather God!
Now you might be asking, what? You heard this from God?
Yes!
Prior to my knowledge of this diet, I had visited an iridologist back in 2016 since we had no health insurance at the time and I wanted to use our finances wisely in treating my health care issues. An iridologist is a specialist who looks into your eyes and can tell you the different dis-eases you are struggling with or other health challenges. The one I went to read my mail and knew the tiniest detail. Afterwards, he recommended supplements, one of which was labeled “Keto.”
After a week or so of being on the supplements, I was standing in my kitchen and I heard the still small voice of God. He said, “Robin do you see that bottle on the table that has on it Keto.”
I responded “yes, Lord.”
He then said, “There is a diet called the Keto diet, I want you to get on it.”
He asked me, “Robin what does My Word say that I want on the Altar in Leviticus?” I replied, “You want the fat!”
(See Leviticus 4:19,26)
I had NEVER heard of this diet and up to this point felt so miserable physically that I did not want to exist. Hurting all over, dealing with acid reflux, low thyroid, hypoglycemia, as well as my lymph nodes being swollen 24/7 for 2 years nonstop really alarmed me about what might be the condition of my health.
After only 3 weeks of being on the diet, after a difficult bout of dealing with keto-flu, which was the result of my detoxing of carbs and not having enough knowledge at the time of my electrolytes, I began to see healings in my body!
God told me that what He had for me to do in this earth could not be done unless I went on the Ketogenic diet. I will have resources below for you to look at, giving you insight into this awesome lifestyle that has forever changed my health!
It switches your body to a fat based fuel source, from a glucose based fuel source. Your body breaks down your own triglycerides and converts them in your liver to ketones, providing fuel to your organs, muscles and brain. Since then I have used a ketone/glucose blood meter to get the readings, being experimental with my body, to see what best works for me. I do have contact with a doctor as needed in dealing with any issues or questions I might have.
I have studied hundreds of hours on the ketogenic diet from seminars, to books and videos. Below I am going to post some of my pics on the keto meals, as well as one of our carb up meals. After being on the diet for almost 4 years, I now carb up one day, every other week.
Make sure you seek professional medical care in answering questions and monitoring you should you start the diet.
All I know is since being on the diet, God told me to preach Jesus first and keto second. Many people perish for a lack of knowledge and do not realize that their diet is killing them.
