When it comes to kids and keto, your own commitment to your health has a positive effect on the whole family. 

Teaching kids about smart eating choices starts with their carers – that might be you. If you make changes now, you’ll see improved quality and longevity of life, and set them up for success in the classroom, on the sports field, the stage, or whatever they choose to do.

With the increased rate of Type 2 diabetes, parents concerned about behavioural issues, and one in four Aussie kids overweight or obese according to the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare, the time to act is now. 

Kids can thrive on a ketogenic diet. You’ll be reducing the amount of processed foods they eat, reducing carbs and increasing their knowledge of healthy food choices.

Importantly, they’ll gain a stronger understanding of where food comes from.

It might be hard to fathom how you’ll be able to move children to a ketogenic diet, but as an experienced keto coach and father of two young kids, Tony Packenas of Keto Smart has great tips and tricks to get you going.
