Keto Tools

You don’t need lots of tools and supplements to start a keto diet.  But there are a few that are very helpful.  For your convenience I’ve included affiliate links to Amazon for each of these tools.


Ketone Test Strips. You are going to want to know if you are in ketosis, and the easiest and most affordable way to do so is with these test strips that will tell you if there are ketones (a by-product of ketosis) in your urine.  A more accurate way to measure ketones is a blood meter, but this is not a necessary tool.


Mineral Supplements. A keto diet is diuretic (you pee a lot) and you’re going to be flushing out some electrolytes. In our experience, nearly everyone feels better if they supplement these minerals.  We use Concentrace Trace Mineral Drops in our water or coffee.  A serving is 40 drops, and we get that over the course of a day by just putting 3 to 6 drops in everything we drink.


Himalayan Pink Salt. One the essential minerals that you’ll need to supplement on your new ketogenic diet is sodium. And while you are salting your food, you should consider using a salt that has more minerals than just sodium, which make the sodium more effective.

Easy Keto Meal Plan

For the first three weeks of your new Keto Diet, you don’t want to be put into a situation where you have to eat carbs because you don’t have good keto friendly food available. It takes about three weeks of being in ketosis for your body to learn how to burn fat efficiently, and every ‘cheat’ meal starts that clock over.


No Cook Keto Meal Plan.  I wrote this keto meal plan to be the easiest keto meal plan available. Everything in this meal plan is Mix, Microwave and Eat…and in 5 minutes or less.  Check out No Cook Keto and give yourself a huge keto advantage.
