The UK Low Carb podcast is the home of the UK low carb and keto community. I'm your host Dan and I've been keto for 4 years. Each week I will be spilling the tea on low carb by chatting to someone following the low carb or keto way of eating. Come and join us as we share our stories and help grow the low carb community in the UK and around the world.
We've all been there. It's going so well. You're enjoying low carb/keto and feeling great. Then you get ambushed by a situation. A meal out, a feeder in your life who insists on plying you with carbs. I think all of us has been there and in this podcast I share from my own experiences how to manage this situation. Thank you to Sarah from the UK Low Carb FB group for inspiring this episode.

It's hard but it's manageable and I'll explore the chimp paradox as well as my own experiences to help you on your journey as we're in this together!

In 2022 I chatted to...Barb Corrick Jen Unwin Keto KevTracy Holvey GrenteBarb, Kev and Tracy are examples of how making a decision to embrace keto/low carb is more than just health , it is more about empowerment and a fresh start in life.

How we belong to our tribes and society and how this translates in the 21st century. This episode was broadcast live to our Facebook groups - UK Low Carb and Deliciously Guilt Free Chat.

What a privalege this conversation was. I first met Tracy in person this summer at Kestival and like many I couldn't help but like her. Tracy shares with me how she had an amazing journey from treatment for a large tumour and the loss of her father to a change in her life with the aid of keto. Like I told her in this conversation - many of us start low carb for the weight loss but stay for the other health benefits and her story is a strong reflection of this.Now she is a more confident, happy in herself person and I am so happy that I get to share with you her story.

I think Dr Ken Berry was my first celeb doctor to come on the show. This was recorded in January 2021 and the podcast wasn't yet a year old. It was during the second lock down and so I remeber well trying to balance home schooling my reception age daughter and then jumping on a call straight after...happy days...in a way! Dr Berry and I discuss human evolution, a keen interest for us both and something that we as a species really should understand a whole lot more.

This and that...and a bit of Keto ☕️ Take Control Welcome back to the Carrie and Dan special monthly show. We were blown away by your wonderful feedback from episode one and so we have a little gift - episode 2! whoop whoopWe mostly talked about The Situation here in the US, but also:- McDonalds meat- The milk at the bottom of a bowl of Frosties- Court packing- Dr. Pepper Zero- School Lunches- Inequality in representation- Mr. Dan's impending homelessness- KetofestAnd then Richard Morris showed up and we all agreed that the one thing {most} folks can take control of is what food they put in their mouths.Enjoy.
RICHARD MORRIS IS HERE! I couldn't believe that Richard and I have made three shows (maybe four now) with other people but never together! Well I've corrected that, here is our show, just the two of us chewing the fat. Yes we do go a little off the topic of low carb talking about the scientific method, who and when 1 + 1 = 2 was proven...or whether it still needs to be figured out.
