Praise for Aimee's previous books"Almost Keto is a great option for someone who needs to take control of their health. It's a way of life that includes tasty, convenient, and diverse food options to help you make and maintain positive physiological outcomes." —Laura Kunces, PhD and registered dietician"I plan to implement Almost Keto as my nutritional handbook to optimal health and wellness in my practice. My colleagues and I have been teaching the same nutritional principles for decades." —Val Manocchio, MD, CEO of Doctors Best Wellness"Almost Keto is an excellent resource for those seeking a healthier approach to the keto diet. With its focus on whole foods and moderation, this book turns what is otherwise a short-term diet into a viable long-term lifestyle. I appreciate that the science in it is so comprehensive, yet is simplified enough to be accessible for those not in the nutrition field." —Ariane Resnick, CNC, chef & bestselling authorPraise for Aimee Aristotelous's The Whole Pregnancy: A Complete Nutrition Plan for Gluten-Free Moms to Be​“This is a comprehensive guide to being as healthy as possible during pregnancy while optimizing the nutrition needed by a growing brain.

It’s the only one you need during your pregnancy.” —J.B. Handley, cofounder of Generation Rescue“A wealth of research and knowledge of nutrition is presented here, in a clear and informative guide focusing on natural unprocessed foods, complete with mouthwatering recipes and meal plans that are easy to follow.
