    If I learned anything from going Keto it's that we must pay attention to the ingredients we consume. I can't believe how many carbs I ate before paying attention to the labels.

      The other day I saw some thing that was zero added sugar! so I looked at the back and the 2nd thing on the ingredients was sugar. Does that mean it’s not “added” if it was put there during the manufacturing process? This post-truth era is extremely annoying.

      I found you have to make your own food from scratch. They put sugar in everything. You can't get a soup or chile at a restaurant without them putting copious amounts of sugar or starch in it. I kept getting knocked out of keto going to restaurants. I finally decided to cook from scratch ingredients, taste better and no sugars or starches.

    Thomas. I started my keto lifestyle this morning. Thanks to you and a few others. I have studied the keto lifestyle for the past several months and have a pretty good understanding of what happens and what to expect. I had my first keto breakfast which was way less than what I usually eat. But with all the extra fat and literally no carbs I was surprised how full I was. Anyway just getting started. I'm 334 lbs. 49 years old. I feel fine so far. Maybe a little foggy. But I'm going to stick with it. Thank you

      It works. I am keto/veg. I take the best of everything. Sat fat, butter, clarified butter, full cream milk, cream, sour cream, red meat, eggs, tuna, vegetables, fruit. No sugar. No artificial sugar if any kind. (only use fruit to sweeten with). No wheat, cereal, bread, rice, pasta, so on. Sometimes meat or cream or eggs or nuts plus veg and fruits. Also fast water and minerals only 2 or 3 or 5 or sometimes 14 days. Only eat once a day. Also eat only Baker's 100% unsweetened chocolate - add to blender or melt or fondue with fruit for sweetener. Low fat is BS. Everything we been taught is backwards. No processed junk. Many things don't have to be on food label including many Neurotoxic chemicals like wood alcohol, Aluminum, so on. Most cheese HIGH levels of Aluminum. Any powders (table salt, drink powders, garlic powder, cocoa powder, most any powder uses Aluminum caking agent these days!)

    The Bad ones: Muenster , American, Velveeta, Brie, Gorgonzola (if processed), Cheddar (sometimes)

    Cheese maker here. The 'gelling' you speak of is by adding rennet. That comes from either calf stomach lining or microbial or vegetable rennet. Also, there are studies that look at the vitamin k2 content of certain cheeses. Some cheeses are very low in k2, some are very high. It usually has to do with the bacteria used in the cheese, how long it's been aged, and whether it comes from grass-fed or grain-fed cows. Ideally, grass-fed and aged is best. And the cheeses highest in k2 are Gouda from Netherlands, Camebert from France, and Jarlsberg from Norway.

I generally dont buy from supermarkets since for some reason i get some inflammation from those cheeses even though they are raw. They might have been frozen or something else but i really dont know. Try it yourself and find out if you tolerate it. I live in norway, so it might be easier for me to find those delikatessens than in the us, but you will just have to search. It is best to buy local products. In my experience they are of best quality. I ate a huge chunk of localy made raw and grassfed cheese whitout getting any negative symptoms so it is definetely worth getting. If buying from a local farmer buy a large wheel of cheese and you might get it for a good price, since they generally last for months if stored properly.

      @Joel W you are so correct. It's hard to find good quality food in America, or, it's getting more difficult. Many good healthy co-ops have been rated because they're dispensing healthy food. I do believe, at least in many states, that raw cheese is legal if it's aged for so long, but it has to be in that guideline. I have found the Kerrygold Dubliner Cheese at Costco. However, I haven't noticed if it's pasteurized or not. I accidentally bought it once thinking I was buying the butter! It was quite good

    Hey Thomas! Love the videos and watch them often. Here's a real life riddle for you: When in Switzerland, which cheese is Swiss? Well, they're ALL swiss. I lived through trying to figure out which one was what we in the USA call Swiss cheese after moving there several years ago. We tried many cheeses all of which had large holes and had the appearance of being "Swiss", but none of which tasted like the "Swiss" cheese I was looking for. It turns out that what we call "Swiss" cheese is known as Emmentaler because it is made in the town and region known as Emmental. Emmentaler is also a brand of cheese from Switzerland which you may find in your grocery store on ocassion. I highly recommend the cheese that comes from Switzerland over American versions. The taste is a bit sharper. The cheese is processed much less than American versions.

      I am lactose intolerant and the first time I did keto 3 years ago I didn't know. I was going crazy with cheddar and sour cream and cream cheese. I had severe stomach distress and thought it was the keto diet. This time I did my research and no diarrhea, gas or cramps. I eat mostly feta and Swiss (which is naturally low in lactose because of how long its fermented). Heavy cream is also low in lactose. As far as cream cheese and sour cream I buy lactose free versions. I have to buy lactose free mozzarella because it can have a lot of lactose. But blue cheese is a new one for me, thank you @Thomas DeLauer 😊 🙏

      Synthetic chemicals in food rather than quality real ingredients is always cheaper. Anything synthetic will be cheaper. It's worth an extra few dollars for some good quality cheese. I'm astounded at how much money people waste on Starbucks yet they grovel when it comes to spending a few extra dollars on good organic healthy food. That may not be you, but it's very common. We only get one body. It's a good investment to take care of the body we have by putting the best fuel in it. You either pay now or you pay later 😂

Now if someone could concoct a keto gnocchi substitute recipe, I would be in heaven! ;) . Do you know if it has a similar keto profile and benefits as you outlined for blue cheese?...Never mind, just watched to the end of your video and see you covered Gorgonzola. Glad to know there are good keto versions available out there. I'm guessing the ones imported from Italy are the safest keto-wise, but will be be sure to investigate their ingredients before eating them as you suggested.
