If you think keto isn’t going to be sustainable it is not going to be. You have to look at it as a long term lifestyle change and believe that you can do it.Dan - Focus on the things you can have and not on the things you can’t have. Resources Mentioned Diet Doctorhttps://www.dietdoctor.com Quotes by Dan &amp; Erika“Eating low carb and keto is the new normal, eating carbs is the unusual part and we always come back to the normal. When you are dieting it is the opposite.” “[Shake diets] it is so hard, how do you adapt to any social situation, you can’t? How do you come back, you haven’t learnt anything,&nbsp; you haven’t made any sustainable changes apart from how to make a shake?” “It kind of just stuck, all the timing seemed right, you’re eating delicious food and you don’t feel deprived.” “Oh my gosh, I am feeling better and then obviously once you start losing weight as well, there is a lot of momentum to keep going, and this time we found something that worked for us.” “I like to say it is our ‘new normal’, eating low carb and eating keto is the normal.&nbsp; We are not perfectionists by any stretch of the imagination, but keto is ‘the normal’. So if we eat the occasional carb, that is the unusual, which you always come back to ‘the normal’.” <p dir="lt

Graham Phillips&nbsp;Graham Phillips BPharm FRPharmS is a second generation community pharmacist. He describes himself as “The Pharmacist who Gave Up Drugs! “Having played a very senior leadership role in the pharmacy profession he became disillusioned with the NHS one-size-fits-all approach to healthcare with its emphasis on waiting for symptoms to arise before treating (suppressing?) them with drugs. He pioneered a new approach using his scientific knowledge, clinical expertise and new technology which resulted in the ProLongevity service.&nbsp;The ProLongevity programme helps people who want to lose weight, improve wellbeing and avoid/reverse diabetes, by using new technology to monitor real-time blood sugar &nbsp;levels. &nbsp;We provide personalised advice based on your data to help you make changes to your diet and lifestyle. We avoid traditional approaches that treat symptoms after the damage has been done. &nbsp;Prevention is better than cure.Graham has two sons, one is also a pharmacist and the other a corporate lawyer. He lives with his partner, Karen (a GP also passionate about lifestyle medicine) in North London.Like Jackie Fletcher,&nbsp; Graham is also an ambassador for the Public Health Collaboration. He believes that the world has become dominated by Big Food on the one hand (makes you sick) and&nbsp; Big Pharma on the other (makes you 10% better). In the end the science must prevail.Community pharmacies are part of the Public Health network and they see 1,600,000 people per day for health related reasons, which is more contacts than the rest of the NHS put together.As a pharmacist he had the fundamental scientific knowledge to go back and look at the science.Graham calls it the “Tyranny of Food” he would be starving at breakfast, as he finished breakfast he would be thinking “What's for lunch?”. He would be ravenous at lunch and at the end of lunch he would be thinking “What’s for supper?”. He was hungry the whole time. Now he isn’t hungry.Having won many awards in the pharmaceutical industry Graham ended up frustrated because he felt they were locking the door after the horse has bolted. If you stop taking your hypertensive medication or diabetes medication you are still hypertensive or diabetic. Medication isn’t curing people it is suppressing the symptoms. People are ending up with more and more medication.Graham understood the hormonal response to food and energy balance and the importance of the gut microbiome combined with a Freestyle Libre constant glucose monitor (CGM) he started to help people change diet and lifestyle to make lasting changes. He was having great results which was more exciting than spooning tablets into people.Graham thinks pharmacies should be remunerated for not dispensing medication. He talks about a prevention program would ensure we would be in a better place to avoid getting COVID-19 or getting less symptoms in addition to the other benefit of being that the vaccine would work better.Graham believes we have to debate the science because that’s how things change.Sleep is also very important. Did you you know if you have 2-3 nights of bad sleep and then have a flu jab it halves the effectiveness?We go on to talk about seed oils and its history, as well as the history of Corn Flakes.We are very fortunate to be able to have Graham back on the show to follow up with other topics.&nbsp; Graham's Top TipLook up the PHC (Public Health Collaboration) https://phcuk.org - a great place to start especially for their resources or being able to access one of their Ambassadors.&nbsp; Resources Mentioned </

But a longstanding interest in the relationship between health and performance led her to a Masters degree in Obesity &amp; Weight Management and a postgraduate certificate in Human Nutrition, and then a career change towards health coaching.Her Masters research was the first academic study into workplace cake culture.&nbsp; Its findings have implications for workplace health and Lou is campaigning to help organisations rethink workplace snacking and food-based reward culture to reduce workplace sugar consumption.Outside of work she is an athletics coach and sports massage therapist, an ambassador for the UK Public Health Collaboration and on the Steering Group for the Real Food Campaign.&nbsp; In this episode, athlete and researcher, Lou Walker started her low carb journey to find out what was the optimal for her Ironman performances.&nbsp;&nbsp;Lou didn’t have any ailments and wasn’t over weight but she edged her family towards low carb by cutting out potatoes, rice and pasta. She then signed up for The Real Meal Revolution and went fully keto.Lou recognises that stress and boredom make her want to eat carby foods but she doesn’t give in to the urges.Lou has swam in open water and accessed the fat on her body to keep her energy going. This helped her not have to take in nutrition whilst she was swimming.Bread is a treat for Lou on Christmas Day and her birthday.Lou did a Masters in obesity and weight management.

Siobhan Huggins&nbsp;is an independent researcher focused on the science of keto, carnivory, inflammation, insulin resistance and how they all interact with each other. Over the past four years she has lost 80 lbs (36kg or 5.5stone), put chronic depression into remission, and made numerous health improvements - all from going on a ketogenic (and eventually carnivorous) diet. She hopes to continue learning the science so she can share it with others, in the hopes of better understanding why ketogenic and carnivorous diets appear to work for improving so many conditions, and why people sometimes struggle even when implementing these dietary strategies and doing everything "right". She is on the board of The Citizen Science Foundation, and is a frequent contributor to CholesterolCode.com where she posts on topics like lipids and immunity, heart disease, and inflammation, as well as the results of her self experiments with diet.In this episode Siobhan continues to explain the role of insulin, cholesterol and inflammation in a low carb, keto and carnivore way of eating lifestyle.&nbsp;She talks about some self experiments she tried on herself and effects these had on her even when she returned to carnivore.

We have a couple of corrections from Siobhan:Two corrections on my part, though. Apparently Dr Attia only recommends Therapeutic Lipidology – looking over old blog posts on CholesterolCode, I do mention starting with this and then went on to read Clinical Lipidology right after, so that is correct. With that said, I’m not sure where I saw Clinical Lipidology recommended, but it wasn’t from Attia.&nbsp;Additionally, the correct quote of what he says is “Anyone aspiring to be a lipid savant […] probably ought to get a copy.” From&nbsp;Part III of the straight dope on cholesterol series.

AMA - Christmas, Social Drinking, NAFLD and moreThis week’s episode is ‘ask me anything’ (AMA) which we wanted to answer questions from our listeners. Questions for our next episode can be submitted through http://fabulouslyketo.com/ama/The following questions were asked by our listeners.&nbsp;&nbsp;If you “come off the Keto wagon” for some treats at Christmas, how do you kick start it again and will you have to go through the “keto flu” again?! &nbsp;Mel It will depend on how long you have been eating low carb keto for, which means depending on how fat adapted you have become, you will likely not expect to experience ‘keto flu’ if you have a higher carbohydrate meal.&nbsp; Secondly, it will depend on how long you consume carbohydrate heavy food, whether it is one meal or one week.&nbsp; The weight gained then will be water retention associated with glycogen storage.&nbsp; What I would encourage is reflecting on the idea of being ‘going off’ plan as this needs to be a lifestyle choice which you can plan ahead to social events.&nbsp; Before heading out, why not have a meal of bacon and eggs, which means you feel fuller.&nbsp; If you are served carbohydrate options on your plate, eat fatty protein first, vegetables leaving the potato (for example) last.&nbsp;&nbsp; Does fat cause fatty liver disease? Charlotte&nbsp; No, Robert Lustig’s Bitter Truth about sugar explains that it is fructose which is attributed to fatty liver. &nbsp;You can watch his video at this link: https://robertlustig.com/sugar-the-bitter-truth/Non Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease is where the excess consumption of carbohydrate is deposited in the liver as fat. &nbsp;This deposits create inflammation and then becomes fibrosised causing scarring which is non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). &nbsp;The scar tissue is the same as that of an alcoholic. &nbsp; What to drink when socialising? &nbsp;Donna&nbsp;There is a great infographic produced by Diet Doctor which you can check here: https://www.dietdoctor.com/low-carb/alcoholAnother great resource is the website and app produced by the Liquor Control Board of Ontario (LCBO).&nbsp; What is good about this resource is that you can search for the brand or variety of drink, and it lists the carb content.&nbsp; What butter is best? Amy Typically any butter which does not contain any blend of vegetable oil is best.&nbsp; That is, pure butter, and not the ones labeled as spreadable.&nbsp; When looking for pure butter, consider that those which are produced by grass fed cows have a better fatty acid profile than grain fed.&nbsp; In Australia and the UK, most dairy products are from grass fed cows.&nbsp;&nbsp; Just starting out, it has been 2 days, and feels like my body is craving sugar. &

Nikola HowardNikola says that she started to gain weight when she entered puberty. She put this down to good too much ice-cream and a decreasing desire to exercise. In 1999, aged 29, weighing 19st 2lbs, an Evans size 26 she was concerned about the arthritis in her right knee, both wrists and left shoulder.&nbsp; Having lost 3 and half stone with low fat diets, and then gaining it back again, along with the extra 4 stones, what hindsight now as a very hypoglycaemic person, the periods of being hungry and ratty on those low fat attempts were increasingly wearing.&nbsp; She would reach for the raisins, as a fast sugar fix, which became her saviour food. What we now know as a&nbsp; typical “High and crash” insulin reaction.It was a work colleague that introduced her to the “Dr Atkins’ New Diet Revolution” which he had used to lose weight and lent her the book.The principles of low-carbing changed her life. She discovered freedom from Hunger. As a confirmed carnivore, low-carbing is a way of eating (WOE) where she can eat the foods that she loves. She believes that there is no sense of deprivation, as you can still eat Curry, Chinese, Steak, and (with preparation) the ice-cream and the biscuits, finding that life is just better without the Sugar and Starch.&nbsp;&nbsp;As we will hear, her journey hasn’t always been smooth sailing, with some obstacles getting in the way and interrupting her low carb living.&nbsp; She has endured prolonged stalls, managing various health issues, side effects of treatments yet she found her way back to low carb and is now coaching.&nbsp; She now works with clients who struggle with being overweight, tired, who may feel that they suffer with shame, guilt and anxiety in order to get some space, clarity and reclaim their health.&nbsp; She seeks to free people from Diet Prison and wishes for the UK to stop eating itself sick by being able to disrupt the diet industry paradigm, moving away from that shame and guilt that comes with sense of victimhood associated with food and bodies.&nbsp;&nbsp; Nikola's BookHow to do Low Carb, UK Style!: Eat your way to an optimal body - Nikola Howardhttps://amzn.to/2Vt8Rh2 Nikola's Top TipsEat food when you are hungryIf you are not hungry, don’t eat or stop eating&nbsp;Make each mouthful as optimal as you can, given the circumstances that you find yourself in.

Bitten Jonsson&nbsp;is a Registered Nurse since 1973, worked with addiction medicine since 1987 and sugar addiction since 1993. Developed a Holistic Addiction Treatment model, worked with group treatment for many years. She has been teaching and training professionals since 2012.&nbsp;Bitten is a recovering alcoholic and her understanding of addiction has been a 26 year journey. She started to learn about addiction in the 70s when she commenced her recovery from alcohol addiction. She fell in love with addiction medicine. She learnt that those recovering from drug and alcohol addiction who also smoke and eat junk food have a higher risk of relapsing.After this ‘light bulb’ moment, she promptly quit smoking but would treat herself with chocolate and ice cream. She gained a lot of weight but she was also very tired. She was told she was a food addict and set out to learn more.She started a group in 1995 and helped those with food addiction deal with the addiction. The low carb movement started in 2005 in Sweden. Bitten was told she was mentioned in a book.The low carb sentiment is that if you stay low carb you can be healthy but it doesn’t take into consideration that some are “Food Addicts”, who can stop eating the problematic foods but can’t stay stopped.Drawing on her understanding of addiction, she was able to translate this to food and food addictions.&nbsp; Similarly to alcohol, social users of food can have a small piece of chocolate and then stop. Whereas harmful users of food are emotional eaters, comfort eaters. Food addicts have a different brain, they are biochemically unique. They don’t respond biochemically the same way as social users and harmful users. They are the most sensitive people.Bitten developed a tool to differentiate between a harmful user and an addict. How much you eat and how often is not a criteria for addiction.&nbsp; She teaches, trains and certifies them in the sugar instrument.&nbsp;Understanding&nbsp; that addiction is chronic, progressive re-lapsable and deadly illness if you don’t arrest it. You don’t have a chance if you don’t embrace that. First you have to understand the illness, then you have to rewire the brain.&nbsp; This is through eating the right types of food - such as the keto way of eating, with clean products, good foods, good fats and you have to figure out the fuel mix.&nbsp;&nbsp;Eating the right types of food minimises the chemical release in the brain.&nbsp; These brain chemicals, particularly those that release dopamine is important.&nbsp; Increasing tolerance to dopamine is built up over time with the types and amount of food that is eaten.&nbsp; You eat more and more even though you feel miserable. It gives an initial high then it makes you depressed, moody, sad, unpleasant, tired, nothing is fun and you lose all your energy. You are not clinically depressed, you have lost energy on a cellular level.&nbsp;&nbsp;Bitten says get the addiction under control first for at least two years before doing any therapy. Changing the way she eats, she has become less swollen and able to move more. She has increased her energy and feels better now she is 67 than in her fifties. Bitten is like a Ferrari, she has to fuel up. Food is her medicine and fuel. She makes sure she gets her nutritional needs met.

Sam Feltham&nbsp; has been in the health and fitness industry for over a decade. Starting out as a party coordinator at a sports centre and working his way up to studying at the European Institute of Fitness and qualifying as a Master Personal Trainer. After 5 years of running a fitness boot camp business Sam decided to move away from that business in order to fully focus on improving public health by setting up and directing the Public Health Collaboration. Sam started as a personal trainer and then set fitness bootcamps called Smash The Fat. Sam used to have his own podcast for Smash The Fat.&nbsp;After reading Why We Get Fat by Gary Taubes he started to recommend low carb, real food diets.In 2015 he felt he was in a philosophical quandary. He felt to continue the business would be an uphill battle against mainstream dietary advice, which Sam felt was bad advice. He felt the only way to tackle the issue was to get to the root cause.He decided not to continue with Smash The Fat and to set up a not for profit charity aimed at lobbying the government that the food guide lines need to be changed and suggesting that they might have got the guidelines wrong in the 80s.Sam proposed this to Dr Aseem Malhotra, Dr Trudi Deakin, Dr David Unwin, Dr Jen Unwin who thought it was a great idea and so the Public Health Collaboration (PHC) was started.Ambassadors ProgrammeThe Ambassadors are local representatives of the PHC, who liaise with healthcare professionals in NHS GP practices. They help set up free support groups and show the results the programme is achieving with patients improving metabolic health and saving money for the NHS.Andy Bishop is a PHC Ambassador who joined a patient participation group, then got the PHC on the agenda for a meeting. Eventually he was able to set up a group. It took 18 months to get the first group up and running but now has 4-5 groups in north Liverpool.&nbsp;Ambassadors are beginning to make breakthroughs by going through the patient participant groups.

Lisa Bailey&nbsp; is a 52 year old who hails originally from Bournemouth, in the south of England. She is a qualified Personal Trainer, with special certifications in Kettlebell training, HIIT training and Cardio Kickboxing, plus she is also a qualified Naturopathic Nutritionist and Primal Health Coach.&nbsp;Years of various illnesses relating to gut health led Lisa to investigate her dietary patterns and, after qualifying as a nutritionist, more research took her on a journey from vegetarian to carnivore with the result of alleviation of all her symptoms.After suffering an injury to her back many years ago, she turned to strength training to heal her own body, and believes that exercise is an important part of the overall lifestyle and achieving optimal health.&nbsp;Lisa got into low carb/keto for health reasons. She had been a vegetarian for 27 years, fortunately she ate eggs. She thought she was doing it for health reasons and environmental reasons. Lisa suffered with IBS symptoms. After training as a personal trainer and nutritionist, she read a lot, which led her to paleo, thinking she had an issue with gluten. She ate paleo as a vegetarian and was constantly tired.With more research she felt she had to add some meat and fish back into her diet. This wasn’t an easy decision having been a vegetarian for 27 years.Lisa lost her smell and taste. The doctors thought it was due to allergies and gave some steroids to take for the rest of her life. The steroids didn’t help and she learned to live without smell and taste for 20 years.She then looked into zero carbs but couldn’t imagine living without vegetables. Within 3 weeks her smell and taste came back.Lisa eats nose to tail and her health has never been as good. Lisa believes if you are going to kill an animal then you should make use of the whole animal, plus different parts of the animal have different nutrients.Lisa explains the difference between carnivore and keto carnivore.Exercise is not a weight loss tool but it does matter. There are so many benefits to exercise. It affects the health of your mitochondria, it affects muscle mass. If you do high intensity resistance training and high intensity cardio, they can be short, sharp workouts, which is so beneficial.Lisa talks about the SAID principle - The specific adaptation to imposed demands. Your body will adapt when you put demand on it greater than what it is used to. The body has to adapt.Many people are not eating enough protein, especially women. They are afraid of red meat, they’re afraid of protein, especially older people who really need it.Kettlebells are very versatile that can be done at home with little equipment.

Fidel Gonzalez&nbsp;has been living a ketogenic lifestyle for the last 6 years which has improved his quality of life.&nbsp; Despite having been fairly active most of his life with running and going to the gym, he struggled with weight gain as he aged.&nbsp; At 40 years old he had his&nbsp; first hip replacement and was advised to not run due to it being a high impact activity and may affect the lifespan of the hip replacement. After completing his&nbsp; hip rehabilitation he then took up cycling with a vengeance which helped achieve some weight loss but only to a point.&nbsp; It wasn’t until he turned 46 years of age that he discovered LCHF/keto and haven’t looked back since.He was always very active but couldn’t understand how he kept putting on weight.At 39 he was diagnosed with early onset osteoarthritis. He had one operation that didn’t help and that was followed by a full hip replacement and then the other hip 18 months later.Fidel’s wife is low carb as well as his daughter and mum. He helps lots of people to change their way of eating.Fidel uses exogenous ketones, both ketone salts and ketone esters, before races and before exams. He uses them strategically because of the cost, it is not feasible to do this all the time.Unless Fidel is doing extremely long races of over 8 hours he fasts prior to and during a ride. He only drinks water and black coffee.

Dr Chris Barclay&nbsp;was brought up in Ipswich. He qualified as a doctor at Sheffield University in 1978 (the very same year he got married and Ipswich won the FA Cup - a rather good year). He worked for two years in Sierra Leone before before returning to Sheffield to starting speciality training in Obstetrics and Gynaecology. He swapped over to General Practice in 1989.Chris Barclay is currently a GP and medical writer. His special interest in diet and health began with a chance encounter; a patient told him how he had lost weight by cutting out carbohydrate foods. Chris has researched the subject ever since. He was principal investigator for the ISAIAH-Project, a diet trial in pre-diabetic patients. His conclusion: processed carbs, starchy foods and sugar are the problem; they are driving our Diabesity epidemic.

After starting on her low carb eating journey in May 2017 and then moving to a ketogenic way of eating in January 2018, she has discovered a passion for everything low carb and keto.
