Dr. Colbert's Keto Zone Diet by Don Colbert

Thanks to NetGalley for the free digital ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.  Check out all my book reviews at www.myliterary2cents.blogspot.com

Dr. Colbert's Keto Zone Diet is a very informative book for anyone who is curious about the new Keto Zone diet phase.  It includes a lot of scientific information on why the diet is good for people, especially people who have inflammatory diseases and cancer.  The author even goes through the history of diet fads and shows why most Americans have a hard time embracing this "high fat" diet.

Notes about the author/writing style: I enjoyed Dr. Colbert's writing style.  Although he is obviously very knowledgeable about dieting and the science behind it, he didn't make his writing style too complicated for those who are not in the medical field.

What I loved about the book:   I walked away from this book with a better understanding of this diet that I have been hearing a lot about.  I feel like I will be better informed to tell others about this diet as well as making a decision on whether I would like to pursue this diet.

What I disliked about the book: There really wasn't anything that I disliked about this book.  It was a good combination of scientific facts, history, and practical ways (even menus and recipes) to incorporate this diet into a lifestyle.

Who should read this book? Anyone who is contemplating going on the Keto diet should read this book.  I would definitely recommend this book to anyone with cancer.  I had no idea that the typical high carb diet was very detrimental to anyone with cancer as opposed to a diet high in fat (low carbs) that would actually extend the lives of most people with cancer.
