According to an Oxford study, weight-loss approaches can cut meat intake in half.
Keto striver makes use of BHB Ketones to help you burn excess fat for energy rather than glucose or carbs, resulting in rapid weight loss.
A study found that setting daily meat reduction goals and keeping an online diary of intake helped frequent meat eaters cut their consumption in half in just over nine weeks.
Keto Now uses BHB Ketones to help you burn fat instead of glucose or carbs for energy, leading in quick weight loss.
The routine was also popular with participants in the study, which was conducted by researchers from the University of Oxford's Livestock, Environment and People (Leap) programme.

Many people want to cut down on their meat consumption for health, environmental, or animal welfare reasons. The researchers at Leap wondered if using psychological concepts used by weight-loss apps like Noom may help people stay motivated.

They created an online platform called the Optimise meat tracker (which stands for an online application to help people self-regulate their meat intake). Users log in and choose one meat-reduction technique from a list to focus on for the day, such as "trying a new vegetarian recipe" or "eating no processed meat." They report whether they met this goal the next morning, as well as how much fish, poultry, red, and processed meat they ingested. They are given weekly comments on their performance.
The method is based on self-regulation theory, which states that people should monitor and contextualize their own behavior, reflect on it in light of their goals, and attempt to change it in response to feedback
To put the notion to the test, researchers enlisted the help of 151 British adults who ate meat at least five times a week but wished to cut back. During a baseline week, the participants kept track of their daily meat intake and got feedback on the health and environmental consequences. Half of them were then instructed to use the app for four weeks before continuing to try to reduce their meat consumption on their own for another month.
The second group received no additional advice on how to cut back on meat consumption, despite the fact that everyone completed new food diaries between weeks five and nine.
Both groups drastically lowered their meat consumption. After the first month, the intervention group lowered their daily intake from 221g to 96g (equal to two average-sized burgers or three to four sausages), and then to 107g after the second month (a 57 percent reduction) (a 52 percent reduction).
"There were really simple, attainable strategies," Stewart explained, "which showed us that lowering your meat intake doesn't have to be scary or happen overnight: small decreases add up."
Surprisingly, after two months, the control group reduced their daily intake from 231g to 122g, a 47 percent reduction. "It appears that the requirement for them to track their meat intake during the baseline and follow-up weeks, in combination with the information we gave them at the start of the study, acted as an intervention in and of itself," Stewart said. Stewart's findings were published in the European Journal of Nutrition.
"Many participants said in their feedback that the self-monitoring aspect was eye-opening and made them realize they ate far more meat than they realized, and that this was especially motivating."
Stewart's team has since completed a second study that included meat eaters of all levels and yielded identical results. People can use the Optimise website, and Leap researchers are considering its future evolution.
