Yes, the keto diet has been around for a while; you’ve heard about it but don’t fully understand the concept and think it’s too expensive. Or perhaps you tried it but were overwhelmed with a deluge of often conflicting information, so you gave up. Possibly, you are following it faithfully but need new inspiration. Besides, there’s always new information coming to the fore. Following on the runaway success of his first book two years ago, Living the Ultimate Keto Lifestyle, Hendrik Marais has decided that it’s time to introduce the ketogenic lifestyle to even more people, while offering devotees a simplified breakdown of the latest trends, and a completely new set of easy and delicious recipes.
 
Keto Lifestyle: Simple  is exactly that – a guide to implementing a ketogenic diet with intermittent fasting – with meal plans that are simple to follow – that makes sense, is both budget- and loadshedding-friendly, and with all the tricks to save you time. You’ll love the tasty recipes and even find ways to entertain your friends with menus that fall within this lifestyle. But there is so much more: nutritional information, advice on exercise and ways to maintain your motivation.

Ja, die ketodieet is al lankal bekend; jy het daarvan gehoor maar verstaan die konsep nie heeltemal nie en dink dis te duur. Of miskien het jy dit getoets maar is oorweldig deur ’n oorvloed dikwels teenstrydige inligting en het jy moed opgegee. Miskien volg jy dit noukeurig maar het jy nuwe inspirasie nodig. Daar kom in elk geval altyd nuwe inligting na vore. Ná die wegholsukses van sy eerste boek twee jaar gelede, Living the Ultimate Keto Lifestyle, het Hendrik Marais besluit dis tyd om die ketogeniese leefstyl aan selfs meer mense bekend te stel, terwyl hy aanhangers terselfdertyd ’n vereenvoudigde uiteensetting van die jongste neigings en ’n volledige stel maklike en smaaklike resepte wou bied.

Keto Lifestyle: Maklik is presies dit: ’n Gids vir die implementering van ’n ketogeniese dieet en periodieke vas – met maaltydplanne wat eenvoudig is om te volg – wat sinvol asook begroting- en beurtkragvriendelik is, en met al die truuks om tyd te bespaar. Jy sal mal wees oor die geurige resepte en selfs maniere vind om jou vriende te onthaal met spyskaarte wat by hierdie leefstyl inpas. Maar daar’s soveel meer: inligting oor voedingswaarde, en raad oor oefening en maniere om jou motivering te handhaaf.

For all keto lifestyle followers, this 52-week planner is the ultimate guide to planning your meals and tracking your progress! It guides you on your keto diet pathway, with or without intermittent fasting, in an easy and fun way right from starting a keto diet, and throughout maintaining the lifestyle.

Using a practical, visual and affirming approach, this stand-alone journal offers blank, customisable templates to help you plan your meals and track your progress as you embark on your keto journey.

As both a journal and planner, this book does not include any recipes or meal plans, and so it is also the perfect companion to author Hendrik Marais’ Living the Ultimate Keto Lifestyle: A South African Guide & Cookbook.

Building a healthy lifestyle can be daunting, especially with the level of confusion that exists about health and wellness. As low-carb high-fat diets have increased in popularity, a wealth of information has proliferated on the internet and in print media. The problem is knowing what works, and differentiating between sound advice and opportunistic entrepreneurs whose primary aim is to monetize ‘solutions’.

In 2017, Hendrik Marais founded Keto Lifestyle South Africa with the aim of providing the information needed to build a healthy, sustainable lifestyle based on the ketogenic diet and intermittent fasting. He believes that while nutrition is important, a healthy lifestyle must find the right balance between sleep, stress management, exercise and nutrition. By making keto accessible and approachable, Marais has inspired thousands of people to adopt simple, healthy eating habits and stick to them.

Living the Ultimate Keto Lifestyle incorporates a comprehensive introduction that sets out his principles and practices for following a keto diet, and explains how to achieve your weight-loss goals. This is followed by a selection of delicious, healthy recipes, as well as sample meal plans and ideas for effortless entertaining.
