They call the diet "Banting" in South Africa, in honor of the man who first proposed the ketogenic diet more than 100 years ago. Chef Jonno Proudfoot helped to popularize not just the term but the diet itself when he swam from Mozambique to Madagascar in the same year he released a Cook Book along with the legendary Tim Noakes. That confluence of circumstances spurred a nationwide movement towards a low-carb, high-fat lifestyle. 

Proudfoot narrates his story with a dash of history, a pinch of socio-political context, and a sprinkle of media influence. Jonno provides practical tips for those attempting the delicate balance of promoting a healthy lifestyle without commercializing it. 

It's a conversation rich with tales from the kitchen to the coastline.
