What is the Ketogenic Diet?
---------------------------

Ketogenic diet is high in fat, adequate in protein and low in carbohydrates. Generally, the macronutrient ratio varies within the following ranges:

60-75% of calories from fat (or even more),
15-30% of calories from protein, and
5-10% of calories from carbs.

The exact amount of fat and protein is a matter of individual goals, needs and activity levels. Typically, most people on ketogenic diets don't consume over 5% of calories from carbohydrates.

In most cases, people following a keto diet won’t need to count calories. However, as they approach their ideal weight and their weight loss stalls, calorie counting can be helpful for fat loss.

### 1/5 — Why is it telling me to input how much carbs I want to eat?

*2024-02-26, version 2.2*

What kind of calculator tells you to enter the results instead if it calculating the carb intake I should be aiming for based on my stated goals?

### 3/5 — Music

*2023-12-29, version 2.2*

Hard to figure out.

### 5/5 — Good so far. Still entering my information

*2023-08-12, version 2.2*

Seems to be a good app so far.

### 5/5 — New Keto Person

*2023-03-19, version 2.2*

I’m still trying to understand the Keto diet.  I really appreciate the Free no strings Calculator.  I love that it offers you different calorie options and lots of information that I need.  Keep up the great work. 

I hope they will keep this Calculator updated with new features as it hasn’t seen an update in 2 years.

### 1/5 — This is just an information app

*2022-08-19, version 2.2*

Ugh.  I can get this info on Google!!
I thought this app would TRACK the food … but Nope!  It forces you to download their other app that you have to PAY to use it!  So it’s false advertisement as “Free”.

### 5/5 — I’mpl  loll k

*2022-06-25, version 2.2*

Nmhyhy

### 1/5 — Bugs me for review before I used it!

*2022-05-07, version 2.2*

I can’t review something I haven’t used.

### 1/5 — Not helpful

*2022-03-21, version 2.2*

As a beginner, I want to be able to dial in what I am actually eating and then have it displayed in macros. Having to use your recipes is not helpful.

### 5/5 — Yes!

*2022-01-02, version 2.2*

Thank you finally. Of all of the keto calculator options available in app form this one shining diamond is sensible. 
And for every other app, NOT this one, I really have a hard time understanding why you need access to pretty much all the data passing through my phone. From photos, internet searches to financial?.. why 

So thank you for providing this app as it should be

### 5/5 — 💛

*2021-10-25, version 2.2*

Wonderful application 🤗💜✌🏻
