I think most days I eat like I'm on the Ketogenic diet but that is just what I like. I have tried bulletproof coffee and liked it, bulletproof tea just makes me nauseous and feel hungry?!?! I prefer a regular cup of tea with raw milk cream and a couple of eggs fried in two table spoons of butter and coconut oil. Either that or a chunk of organ meat.
I don't agree with most of you who say the key of the ketogenic diet is to loose weight. I'm trying to gain weight and have put on fifteen pounds in the past year mostly eating ketogenic paleo. The only way I can get in enough calories to gain weight is to eat extra fat at the end of the day otherwise my calories are always too low. When just eating paleo I can't put on weight. I still eat between 80-120 grams of protein a day and don't bother counting carbs as they are all from veggies and milk.

Hi Judith,
It is a school projectbut I havea small group of homeschooled children so we don't always qualify for donation programs since a lot of them require proof of being a non profit or public institution. I will ask at Baker Creek, thanks for the information! I did mean substantial garden not substantial grade:) my kids don't even get graded as I take a more holistic Waldorf based approach to learning than written grades.
Blessings,
Victoria
So does anyone here have their own home brewed Bokashi bran? Can you pass it forward to other garners wanting to try making Bokashi bran? Kind of like sharing a kombucha scooby or Kiefer grains? Not sure if it's common enough to share or easy enough to home brew buti think I'd like to try it someday...
