Mmmmmm, barbeque sauce . . . smoky and sweet, what’s not to love about one of America’s favorite condiments? Well, for those that follow the Keto diet, there’s a few reasons – sugar and carbs being the main ones. But with NEW Keto Primo barbeque sauce, Keto followers can rejoice, as it can be slathered on and not affect ketosis.

Keto Primo is:

  • KETO BBQ Sauce-sweetened with monk fruit
  • Perfect for KETO, low carb, low glycemic, diabetic friendly, Paleo, Atkins
  • Just 2 net carbs per 2 tablespoon serving; no sugar added; no artificial sweeteners
  • Super food ingredients feature Monk Fruit; Apple Cider Vinegar, Pink Himalayan Sea Salt, Butter
  • All natural, no preservatives or artificial colors, non-GMO

Formulated by two moms, with a butcher as a “secret weapon”, this barbeque sauce stands up to regular, sugary ones. Whether you use as a marinade, on the smoker, in the oven, on the grill or in a crock or insta-pot, Keto Primo has the consistency of “regular” barbeque sauce, and you get that caramelized taste that one loves.

Purpose and a Paycheck

When most people think of entrepreneurs, they picture young professionals at the start of their careers. But right now, people in their 50s and 60s are turning that theory on its head, launching new businesses at nearly twice the rate of those in the 20s.

Chris Farrell, veteran journalist and senior economics contributor to “Marketplace,” has been monitoring this grassroots movement for years. Now, he’s proving that our aging population is far from a burden to the economy; in fact, they’re saving it.

Filled with scholarly research and first-hand reporting, in Purpose and a Paycheck (HarperCollins Leadership) Farrell reveals:

  • Why our aging population is one of the most powerful economic forces in the coming decades
  • The negative impact of age discrimination, and why we should value the skills of experienced workers
  • How workers in the second half of life are just as creative and productive as their younger peers—if not more so
  • Why the leading edge of the ‘work longer movement’ is self-employment and entrepreneurship
  • The growing trend among older adults to do well and do good by finding careers with nonprofits
