Successful experiments with baking Banting bread for her brother uncovered a huge demand for it and earned her a big following on social media. She now manufactures more than 200 different products. Nowadays she’s a keto coach with six brick-and-mortar stores as well as an online platform, where she offers customers a fun, engaged approach to the keto lifestyle. A former personal trainer, Gizelle studied nutrition and works out all her own meal plans and programmes. She also runs various group and individual fasting challenges.
