Keto for Women: A 3-Step Guide to Uncovering Boundless Energy and Your Happy Weight

by Leanne Vogel

International bestselling author, Leanne Vogel delivers the ultimate resource guide for women looking to take charge of their health through a fat-fueled, ketogenic diet. Leanne draws upon her many years of experience as a Nutrition Educator as well as her personal success to bring women this first-ever custom built nutrition program that will meet their individual needs.

Keto for Women delves into what the keto diet is (and is not) and how women can reap the many health benefits by using a targeted method specifically designed for their bodies. Throughout her book, Leanne teaches women how hormone imbalances cause many of the negative symptoms they experience and what keto foods and protocols will work best to remedy those. By teaching women how to understand their bodies, they will be empowered to find solutions that are right for them as individuals and stay in control each step of the way.

Leanne sheds new light on the role nutrition plays in: thyroid imbalances, menopause, PCOS, adrenal fatigue, pregnancy, menstrual cycles, sex drive and more. She also details the positive effects of the keto diet on emotional and mental well-being giving women a path to total health, mind, body and soul.

Keto for Women provides customizable resources with ingredients that target and balance specific health problems. Leanne also offers maps that you can follow to develop personalized meals that are based upon the ingredients chosen for your unique needs.

Keto for Women complements Leanne’s 12-week program (happyketobody.com) that has helped more than 3,000 women take charge of their health, using a customized ketogenic diet to balance their bodies.

About the author

I’m an ultra passionate Nutrition Educator, host of The Keto Diet Podcast (ranked #3 in fitness & nutrition and #10 in all health podcasts on iTunes in the US and Canada), creator of one of the largest keto resources on YouTube, and the founder of Happy Keto Body. My first paperback, The Keto Diet, was an international bestseller and the first ketogenic book to debut at Costco… ever. I am also releasing new paperbacks in 2019 including, The Keto Diet Cookbook (April, 2019), and Keto for Women (June, 2019)

My goal is to help you do away with feeling overpowered and controlled by food by giving you the tools you need to inject your life with happiness, healthfulness, and a whole lot of dietary fat.

I’ve spent over a decade revolutionizing my perception of food and wellness by creating a life of kindness and acceptance toward myself. I bounced from diet to diet trying to find an approach that worked best for me. And, it all came together when I found the ketogenic diet in 2014. When I realized the power of a customized keto approach to nutrition was possible, the game changed.

I found keto during my personal struggles with health and weight loss. It transformed my life ending my 8-year struggle with amenorrhea (missing period), hypothyroidism, adrenal dysfunction and ultra-low hormones. I immediately set out on a path to help others find the same success. My first online nutrition program The Keto Beginning launched in October 2014, Fat Fueled in November 2015 and Happy Keto Body in April 2018, in addition to my 3 paperback books.

I create this work because I care deeply about you, your journey to wellness, and am committed to getting you results so that you can transform your restrictions into opportunities and celebrate your body.

Through my keto recipes, low-carb videos, keto podcasts, and keto programs, you’ll get practical wisdom from me and receive support from everyone in our loving community.

You’ll learn to let kindness into your kitchen and love into your life with simple ingredients, many laughs, and delicious keto food.

As always, Leanne has knocked it out of the park. This book (and all of her other books) are the ULTIMATE keto resources, especially for women. Leanne starts this book out with a beginners guide to keto, listing myths and truths, and the science of why you should eat keto. She then has amazing food lists and food pyramids, teaches you how to make meals out of basic ingredients in your fridge, and then dives deep into loving yourself, healing your hormones with keto, and dealing with other roadblocks (pcos, adrenal fatigue, menopause, amenorrhea, etc.). I can't believe all the information that's packed into this book, and I'm highly recommending it to anyone that is eating a low carb diet, or anyone that's needs healing.

I love everything Leanne Vogel does! Her book The Keto Diet is my number one recommendation for those interested in the keto diet and lifestyle because it isn't keto junk food based nor is it high in dairy (it is dairy free in fact). This book has no recipes and is mainly a women's health guide. Useful for me when working with women with hormone imbalances. I will be lending out this book to patients too. I would say this is next-level keto and if you are a keto newbie, skip this book and go for The Keto Diet instead.

This book is thorough! There is a lot of information here, even for a veteran of the keto/low-carb lifestyle. This is a great place to start, or continue, or improve your low carb way of eating to meet the particular health concerns of women. It is not a cookbook, although there are a handful of recipes in it. This is a book that will help you to better understand how your own body works, and how a low carb diet can fit into your healing journey. I appreciate Leanne's non-rigid, down-to-earth, candid and flexible approach.

This book is amazing. Its clever, easy to understand and interesting. Leanne talks in a way we can all understand. This book is helpful if you've been on keto for a while or just starting out. It also has a lot of really great information that people who might not be full keto can totally take advantage of. If you are on the fence about this book, hop down off that fence and buy it. You will not be disappointed.

Leanne provides the most comprehensive, approachable, adaptable stance on the Ketogenic diet. Beautifully artworked, this book follows in the footsteps of "The Keto Diet" and "The Keto Diet Cookbook" in presenting practical recipes and profound "what ifs" that may be stumbling blocks in one's Keto journey. Overall, it's a great book.

Uno de los mejores y más completos libros sobre la dieta Keto que he leído. El enfoque que tiene hacia el cuerpo femenino y sus necesidades, hace de este libro un valioso manual para cada mujer. Esta dieta ha sido de las mejores que he probado y que continuo practicando. Después de usar la píldora anticonceptiva más tarde descubrí que también tenía síntomas de SOP y resistencia a la insulina, por mucho tiempo tuve muchos problemas para bajar de peso y regular mi ciclo hormonal nuevamente. Esta dieta me ha ayudado a perder los primeros 7 kg de 17 kg, ayudó a disminuir la inflamación y la retención de líquidos, disminuye los antojos y el hambre, ha mejorado mi PMS y mi ciclo, mi mente es más clara y alerta, mejora el humor y cada día descubro más mejoras en mi cuerpo. Definitivamente creo que la alimentación tiene mucho que ver en la salud del cuerpo y mente y la dieta Keto ha sido la mejor de todas. Muy recomendable.

This a must own for Women companion Keto book along with her first one. Three big things that stand out to me in these books the simplicity to follow the Keto program, customized to YOUR needs, and real recipes you would want to make and eat! ( so four major things) as I’ve discovered that many books either offer good recipes but painful to make, easy to make but don’t taste good or too expensive.

Hoping she puts publishes another recipe book in the future!

[Amara Huffine · Rating 5 out of 5]

As someone who has done keto in the past and needed a refresher to get restarted, this was perfect. She does a wonderful job of promoting self love and body positive. I really enjoyed how she thoroughly went through the importance of not looking at keto as restrictive and using your body as a guide to do what’s best for you.

[C.D. Storiz · Rating 4 out of 5]

A lot of good information. Very detailed in several respects except it lacked in recipes and menus. I was hoping there'd be more suggestions on exactly what to eat and when. Even sample daily menus would have given me a hint as to how to proceed. Guess I'll need to supplement this book with a few others to fully take advantage of a keto experience.

[Eleanor · Rating 5 out of 5]

This was a fantastic book and would recommend it to any woman who follows a keto diet or is interested in health for women. I have learnt so much and it has given me freedom instead of guilt about the way I choose to eat. Lots of interesting information!

[Tammi Stuhldreher · Rating 3 out of 5]

Very interesting book, not the typical "diet" book. It has some personal stories and ways to alter keto for your unique body. Most of the stuff in the back did not apply to me but if you have specific issues with hormones, thyroid etc... she covers them at length.

[Jeanette · Rating 5 out of 5]

I have read many books in Keto in the past 5 years, since being diagnosed with T2D.
This book is full of solid information and practical things to do or try.
I learned some new tricks!
Thanks a lot!

[Ashley Twardy · Rating 5 out of 5]

Very informative read! I was able to read through pretty quickly and loved all the resources and information.

[Chiara · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book was incredibly informative and helpful. I highly recommend it to any woman who is interested in trying the keto diet!!!

[Mary · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is an excellent book if you are new to Keto or low-carb. It is very informative!

Going KETO? Read This; as simple as that 😀

[Yycdaisy · Rating 4 out of 5]

Very detailed book. No recipes in this one though.

[Mercey · Rating 5 out of 5]

I preordered this book and read it in a matter of 5 days. I am glad I bought it though because as someone who is in Keto for the long haul, this is a very invaluable resource to keep on hand. This book has EVERYTHING a woman thinking about, doing, or maintaining a keto lifestyle could ever want. It covers any and every type of keto benefit, how to troubleshoot problems you might run into, and it is packed with information, resources, and recipes. I also love that it has real pictures, charts, diagrams and it explains everything you need to know about anything you read in here. Leanne Vogel does a great job of not only backing up her facts with research and proof, but also putting the scientific aspects into terms even a simpleton can understand. She also covers modificaitons that can be made to the lifestyle as well as how to incorporate carb ups if you want. There is nothing keto that is not in this book. Stays on my bookshelf where I can come back to it to relook at anything I might need.

[Monica · Rating 5 out of 5]

While I'll admit to already owning her other titles, this book is different, in a great way. It's geared toward keto for a woman because our journey is different from a man's. Vogel validates our stress and hormone fluctuations that determine how our body reacts on a daily basis. The language makes it easy to assimilate into your Keto knowledge, or if you're new to this way of life, a wonderful beginning. The pages are easy to read, the interior is beautifully designed, and the graphics are easy to follow. This book is an everyday reference for your questions about this lifestyle that will change your life from the inside out. Buy a copy, today, and by all means another one for your friends and family.

[Evelyn Erb Bognar · Rating 5 out of 5]

Loved, loved, loved this book. I highly recommend this book for ALL women who want to learn more about their body. This is not just a book for women eating Keto. This book is a wonderful resource for any women who wants to live a healthy life. There is so much in here... 400 pages of information on hormones, thyroid, food, stress, mind set, emotions, etc. There are lots of charts, tables, and graphs.
I have read a lot of books on health... this is hands down the best one I have ever read. Do yourself a favor ladies, pick up this book!!

great info on the keto diet

[Angel · Rating 4 out of 5]

Good read. Helpful suggestions, didn't agree with everything.

[Valerie R · Rating 5 out of 5]

Helpful information about the interplay of hormones. Eating program isn't really as complicated as this implies, however. Customize it and enjoy!
