Urban Remedy’s Keto Plan
I just completed Urban Remedy’s Keto Plan and I can’t say enough about it. First, let me start by saying that I have an autoimmune disease and so in an attempt to feel better I thought I would give it a try. I am extremely particular about what I put into my body but Urban Remedy’s all organic, fresh ingredients gave me the reassurance that I needed. I truly feel amazing which isn’t something I say often. The food is so clean and delicious. I was so surprised that I could eat as much as I did and I felt completely satiated while on the plan. I loved the salads and the Veggie pho soup and the matcha energy bar was so decadent I felt like I was cheating! It literally melts in your mouth. The addition of lean proteins really helped with my energy levels and the MCT was a critical part of helping me stay satisfied longer. I would recommend Urban Remedy’s Keto plan to anyone looking for a reboot.
What is a ketogenic diet?
“A ketogenic diet focuses on minimal plant-based carbs, moderate amounts of clean protein, and high healthy fat consumption – the three keys to achieving nutritional ketosis. In ketosis, you’re essentially converting yourself from a “sugar burner” to a “fat burner.” With 40g or less net carbs per day, you’ll feel satisfied instead of hungry. The lower sugar helps reduce inflammation and fight chronic disease while keeping your insulin levels in tact.”
Day 1
I was feeling so inspired and excited to see if this plan could help me reset my micro biome (the good bugs in my gut). I am extremely sensitive to any additives and many foods trigger my autoimmune system to go bonkers. I felt so good all day and I wasn’t missing bad carbs (anything with grain in particular)at all. The hardest part for me was my own head because let’s face it, if someone tells me that I can’t have sweets, then what do I want? You guessed it, sweets! So day one took a little self discipline and focus on the end goal.
Day 2
I woke up early and felt great ! I noticed that my stomach felt flatter and the bloated feeling I seem to have often was non-existent. I made myself a little warm water with half a squeezed lemon and sipped and smiled at my success. I made it through day one and I didn’t cave! Today was exciting. I felt like I was in the keto rhythm. Much like day one, I felt very satisfied. I did get hungry and then remembered I had snacks both nuts and the Urban crackers which I loved. I also made tea a few times a day. The MCT oil is a very important part of the plan. I added a little oil to either my tea, a salad or the soup three times a day. I felt so good by the time I went to sleep and yep, high five I made it through day two!
Day 3
I realized when I woke up that I had zero cravings for sugar on Day two which was shocking ! Day three was easy ! I just followed the plan as usual but noticed that I had a lot more energy and while I wondered about things like “mental clarity” and if that’s really attainable through a food plan(I’m a bit of a skeptic sometimes)I had to admit that I felt really clear. As day three came to a close I decided that I really do need to eat this way regularly. Urban Remedy’s keto plan was for me, very successful. When you have an autoimmune disease you can’t ever really take feeling good for granted. I am convinced that if I say on the Keto plan I may not think about how I am feeling all the time and will just enjoy “being” .
