[00:55] The Inspiration Behind Everyday Dose and Why Jack Loves Mushrooms At age 5, Jack was diagnosed with ADHD and was prescribed Ritalin. After struggling with multiple medications, the doctors eventually settled on a high dose of Adderall. Jack was on Adderall for twenty years. At 25, Jack had high blood pressure, mood swings, and trouble sleeping. So, Jack quit his Adderall cold turkey and started drinking coffee. Eventually, Jack found mushrooms like lion’s mane and chaga were optimal for productivity and stress. [06:20] Coffee Jitters: How Genetics Are Linked To Caffeine Sensitivity If you have the gene CYP1A2, you are sensitive to caffeine. CYP1A2 means you are going to metabolize caffeine very slowly. If you have CYP1A2, you want to reduce the amount of caffeine that you have. 50% of Americans have the CYP1A2 gene. [07:55] The Combined Effects of L-theanine and Caffeine For Sensitivity If you have the CYP1A2 gene, you can still drink caffeine, just not as much as you probably do now. You can pair different ingredients with each other to have more synergistic effects. Jack uses L-theanine in his Everyday Dose products. L-theanine mixed with caffeine will reduce your sensitivity to caffeine. L-theanine gives you incredible energy and a calming effect. [10:50] Lion’s Mane Helps Give Nutrients To The Brain and Fight Infections Lion’s mane is an excellent source of beta-glucans. Beta-glucans activate the immune cells and trigger a defense response so that you can fight viral infections. Also, many studies show that beta-glucans help fights cancer cells. Few ingredients can cross the blood-brain barrier - lion’s mane can actually do it! [12:40] About The Health Benefits of Chaga Mushrooms Chaga is the antiviral king. Also, Chaga has been shown to help stop the spread of HIV and herpes in your body. Chaga improves the body’s inflammatory response. Plus, Chaga has been used to help with psoriasis and colitis. [14:45] Why Everyday Dose Uses A Hot Water and Alcohol Extraction Process If a company is not doing an extraction process for their mushrooms, that’s a huge red flag. The extraction process is more expensive. So, many cheap mushroom products don’t use an extraction process. At Everyday Dose, the mushrooms are double-extracted with hot water and alcohol. A double-extraction process will draw compounds out of the mushrooms and make them more bioavailable. [20:25] Everyday Dose Does Not Use Psychedelic Mushrooms In Their Products Everyday Dose doesn’t use psychedelic mushrooms. However, the mushrooms in Everyday Dose will help protect your mind and body. If you take mushrooms with psilocybin, they will make you hallucinate. When you take psychedelic mushrooms, it makes you think about the inner workings of your mind. [26:25] Benefits From Everyday Dose Include Focus, Energy, and Weight Loss People report laser focus, energy, and weight loss with Everyday Dose. Everyday Dose is excellent for reducing stress and anxiety. Also, when you drink less caffeine, your cortisol levels will decrease. Glucose follows cortisol. So if you lower cortisol, you lower glucose and burn more fat. AND MUCH MORE!

Fasting is the quickest way to get a healing response in the body, and it is the one tool that harnesses innate intelligence. Also, fasting is free and time-efficient. The whole world can do fasting; they just need to learn what it’s about. Fasting is this healing response that the world is catching on to now because it's as powerful a healing tool as sleep. Every religion disagrees on everything except fasting. Overall, fasting transforms people physically, spiritually, and emotionally. The Importance of Having A Balance Between Feasting and Fasting People need to understand that symptoms should be read and acknowledged. Women have three primary sex hormones that drive their behaviors, sleep, and mental state. Estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone need vastly different things. Fasting is a tool that should be used with proper feasting; you should be able to go in and out of ketosis. When feasting, remember to eat based on the season. No healthy culture ever stays on the same diet because they can't. Our genes and our microbiome are set up to change diets, whether it be weekly, monthly, or seasonally. What Are The Health Benefits of Ketosis? Your brain gets so many benefits from ketosis. Almost two-thirds of the population are experiencing cognitive decline. Your brain loves ketones. For decades, people have been put on a keto diet to fix neurodegenerative diseases. Ketones are a tool for regenerating the brain. With fasting and ketosis, you hit therapeutic levels that you can't hit, just being in ketosis. Your brain needs these ketones to heal. Plus, ketosis will change the microbiome and increase diversity. Lastly, ketosis will help turn off bad genes due to stressful living. How Important Is Gratitude? The most crucial fasting tool is gratitude. Every time you say thank you to someone, you are releasing oxytocin which brings down cortisol. When cortisol comes down, insulin is easier to regulate, and your sex hormones will be a piece of cake. If you don’t fix the cell, you won’t get well. Gratitude will decrease cellular inflammation. When your inflammation is reduced, your cellular function will increase, which will help you feel good. Overall, gratitude is a free tool that you can use! What We Talked About: How does fasting improve your keto results? Dr. Pompa shares a story about using fasting on a cancer patient Why you need to have a feasting and fasting balance The best studies around fasting What are the health benefits of ketosis?

Can pregnant women practice intermittent fasting? How often should you check your ketone levels? Keto vs. Carnivore: which diet is best for you? Intermittent Fasting: is it safe for your children? Should you do keto if you don’t have a gallbladder? Can fasting spike your cortisol levels? What would you prioritize to ensure optimal health for someone without a period for so long? Resources Mentioned In This Episode Dr Mindy Pelz & Ben Azadi Part 1: https://ketokamp.libsyn.com/dr-mindy-pelz-ben-azadi Squatty Potty https://www.squattypotty.com/ Xerneplex Suppository https://remedylink.com/product/xeneplex/ Remedy Link Castor Oil Stickers https://remedylink.com/product/castorpatch/ Book: Undoctored https://amzn.to/3KNEXMZ Can Pregnant Women Practice Intermittent Fasting? No, pregnant women should not practice intermittent fasting. If you’re throwing up and you can’t eat, then in some sense, you are fasting. However, your number one priority should be nutrition. Find food that you don’t throw up. There are other tools that you can magnify once you are pregnant. For instance, you will pass down your microbiome to your child. So, you need to understand what supports a healthy microbiome. Pregnancy is an excellent time for fermented foods. Also, keep in mind what you are putting on your skin; make sure all your products are very clean. Overall, there are tons to unpack for the pregnant woman to have a healthy pregnancy, and fasting is not the tool you want to be leaning into. How Often Should You Check Your Ketone Levels? Ben doesn’t check his ketone levels because he has been doing keto since 2013. So, he knows when he is in ketosis vs. when he’s not in ketosis. When you’re starting keto, it can be a valuable tool to know whether or not you are genuinely in ketosis. Many people will test their urine because it is the cheapest option; however, urine testing is not the best. When your cells use ketones, they will not spill out in your urine. While on the other hand, breath meters are hit or miss. Ben recommends Biosense if you are interested in testing your ketones through breath. https://mybiosense.com/ All in all, a blood ketone test will give you glucose and ketones levels. If you’re 0.5 or higher, then you are in ketosis. Test your ketones for a month or two. Eventually, you won’t need to test anymore. Keto vs. Carnivore: Which Diet Is Best For You? Carnivore is technically keto because when you’re doing carnivore, you are in ketosis. Both diets are good options, but Ben says to try keto first. Keto is low carb, but it’s not zero carbs like a carnivore diet. If you go from 150 grams of carbs to zero, that’s going to feel challenging. However, going from keto to carnivore isn’t as challenging for you. Many people have naturally started carnivore diets because they plateaued on keto. Carnivore can be a great natural transition to try something new and change things up for your body. We don’t need motivation; instead, we need momentum. All in all, carnivore can be an accessible version of keto if you want something simple to do. Intermittent Fasting: Is It Safe For Your Children? Fasting isn't a fad; fasting is a primal way our body approac

Tune in as we chat about nitric oxide, and Susan gives recommendations for sex toys that will spice up your bedroom life.

She is an intimacy expert to millions. One of Susan’s focuses is turning sex into making love. Plus, she stands for ageless sexuality. Sex techniques and bedroom communication skills will be critical to spicing up your bedroom life. There are a lot of myths and misunderstandings around our sexuality and how it works. Until you understand the opposite sex, you are going to be treating your partner the way that you want to be treated. However, you should treat your partner the way they want to be treated. [10:40] Libido, Desire, and Arousal: Improving Your Passionate Lovemaking Sexuality is an extensive and vast subject matter. You can improve your passionate lovemaking by understanding the differences between libido, desire, and arousal. Libido is your lust for sex. Desire is your self-worth and body image; do you feel desirable and do you desire your partner? Arousal has to do with the human operating system. The entire vulva can be activated to be as orgasmic as the tip of the clitoris. A good lover can expand the pleasure palette in the whole vulva. Men should be chronically horny and have erections when they wake up. [23:20] The Love Chemical: How The Hormone Oxytocin Is Related To Sex Oxytocin is a hormone, and it’s generated by touch. Birthing mothers emit oxytocin to bond their babies to them when the baby is born. Oxytocin is often called the love chemical and the bonding molecule. Also, oxytocin gives you empathy and makes you like people better. You can get more oxytocin through food, supplements, and touching. [34:30] Regulate Blood Flow Throughout Your Body With Nitric Oxide Nitric oxide is the gaseous signaling molecule that tells your vascular system to squeeze or relax and to send the blood where it needs to go. Squeezing and relaxing begin to get brittle as you age from atherosclerosis or clogged arteries. If you have clogged arteries and low nitric oxide production, then there will be sexual problems. You need leafy green vegetables, beetroot, cabbage, dill, arugula, romaine, and spinach shard. Susan recommends taking FLOW. It is a blood flow supplement made from organic fruits and vegetables. [45:20] The Very Best Sex Toys For Both Men and Women The first sex toy a woman needs is a Womanizer, an air stimulator. The Womanizer does the sucking and blowing on the clitoral shaft and tip. Many women swear by the Womanizer as their favorite way to orgasm. Find Womanizer products here: https://www.womanizer.com/us/ The second sex toy is a vibrator. Susan recommends We-Vibe Tango: https://www.we-vibe.com/us/tango Another vibrator to check out is AMO - Bullet Vibrator: https://www.hotoctopuss.com/sex-toys/female-sex-toys/amo-the-powerful-focused-bullet-vibrator/ KURVE is excellent for targeting your G-spot: https://www.hotoctopuss.com/sex-toys/female-sex-toys/kurve-vulva-female-luxury-gspot-vibrator Get precise G-spot stimulation with POCO: https://mysteryvibe.com/products/poco MANTA vibrating stroker for men: https://us.funfactory.com/products/manta AND MUCH MORE!

Dr Benjamin Bikman | Why Counting Calories is a Waste of Time, & How to use Ketones to Reverse Metabolic Syndrome KKP: 456
Who Can You Trust When It Comes To Experts In The Health Space? If the person we're seeking to learn from uses derogatory language when speaking about those with whom they disagree, that is the sign of a petty person. Experts should have discussions politely and respectfully and acknowledge that there is room for disagreement. There ought to be a degree of skepticism that we apply to every authority. We should challenge that authority to some degree. There are people with Ph.D. degrees who we shouldn’t trust. Overall, we should always be on our own journey to understand what is accurate and true. A Basic Understanding of Ketosis Ketosis is the state where blood ketones are elevated, but pH is normal. Every human has some amount of ketones, even if it's below the detection level on commonly used devices. When you’re in ketosis, you will have a detectable level of ketones on a moderately used device and yet pH is not changing. Ketones have the potential to make the body more acidic. When someone's in ketosis, the amount of hydrogens coming off the ketone is relatively modest. Within the blood, there are numerous buffering mechanisms. That way, your body will defend its pH range. Overall, ketones are fat-burning products; when insulin is low, the body will burn fat at a high rate. 90 Day Detox Program with Ben Azadi, Dr Mindy Pelz, Dr Daniel Pompa & other detox specialists.

Plus, ketones are signaling molecules. If a ketone is being used as a fuel, it will come to a cell. Then the ketone will get shuttled into the cell through an MCT (monocarboxylate transporter). When the mitochondria have a lot of pressure to be burning molecules, they get the signal that they need more mitochondria. Fatty acids can have the same effect. When a cell is burning a lot of fatty acids for fuel, it will start stimulating mitochondrial biogenesis. Why The Laws of Thermodynamics Are Misleading Regarding Weight Loss People are producing ketones and breathing out ketones, and urinating them out. Remember, ketones have a caloric value. Calories matter, but don’t worry about them. Let the calories take care of themselves. Invoking the laws of thermodynamics in nutrition and human metabolism was one of the greatest tragedies in the history of human-relevant science. It absolutely misled us and made us demonize fat and embrace carbohydrates. Hormones matter at least as much as calories because hormones tell the body's cells what to do with the available calories. The Problems With Metabolic Syndrome and Insulin Resistance Metabolic syndrome used to be called insulin resistance syndrome. Insulin resistance is the single most common problem in the US and abroad. Plus, insulin resistance is relevant to virtually every chronic disease. Covid has only made metabolic problems worse. Luckily, keto and intermittent fasting can help lower insulin. Remember, there is no insulin resistance without elevated insulin. Lowering insulin is a perfect way to help the body become more sensitive to it. If no nutrients are coming into the blood, insulin starts running out of nutrients in the blood that it can store away. So, insulin comes down when nutrients aren’t coming into the blood. Fasting is the best way to lower your insulin and reverse metabolic syndrome.

Kristina Hess | A Customized Keto Approach Based on Nutrigenomics, Why Eating Breakfast & Skipping Dinner Is Better, & More! KKP: 455
Today, I am blessed to have Kristina Hess with me for the third time! Kristina is a premier health coach and licensed dietitian/nutritionist who works with clients to support them in making lifestyle changes that produce real and lasting results. Keto Symposium: https://www.ketosymposium.com/ (use code: BEN10) Kristina has a master’s degree in clinical nutrition and Integrative Health from MUIH - Maryland University for Integrative Health and several certifications in areas ranging from Mindful Eating, Heartmath, to Ericksonian Hypnosis to Sports Nutrition. Kristina received her health coach certification from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition. Kristina's integrative and functional approach is an arm within the Functional Medicine model of the IFM. Functional Medicine views us all as being different, genetically and biochemically unique. A functional approach is deeply science-based and views everything that happens within us as a connected network or web of relationships. Kristina's private practice in Connecticut is called Thrive Results Coaching. In this episode, Kristina joins the show to talk about the Keto Symposium - the first keto conference and expo in New York City. Then, Kristina dives into genes and how having genetic nutrition testing done can impact your lifestyle decisions. Kristina reveals her top three favorite keto diets and explains which is best for you, depending on your genetic makeup. Tune in as we chat about counting calories, time-restricted feeding, and the importance of experimenting with your lifestyle and diet.

[00:45] The First Keto Conference & Expo In New York City Kristina has a desire in her heart to bring the low-carb ketogenic message to more people. If you feel stuck or stalled, a keto conference can be just what you need. A keto conference can help you feel inspired! Whatever your story is, the Keto Symposium will help you. Keto Symposium: https://www.ketosymposium.com/ (use code: BEN10) [10:40] Genes vs. Lifestyle: Which Matters More When It Comes To Health? If you're eating too late at night, it's going to affect your melatonin production. In general, you are less insulin sensitive after 7 pm. One gene that Kristina likes to test for is MTNR1B, also known as melatonin receptor 1B. We have control over our genes. If you are not getting the desired results, you may want to test your genes. When you know what genes you have, you can empower what you are doing in your lifestyle. [15:55] Time-Restricted Eating: Try Reducing Your Feeding Window For Weight Loss Results You should be done eating by 7 pm each night. The earlier you eat, the more insulin sensitive you become, the better your metabolic health markers, and the more weight you lose. If you struggle to lose weight, try eating breakfast and cutting your feeding window at 3 pm. When you are stuck, pivoting your mealtime will be essential to get the desired results. [30:20] The Top Three Keto Meal Plans That Can Work For You Kristina recommends a Mediterranean-style keto diet with a focus on fish, olive oil, and lean protein, with some sheep and goat dairy. The Mediterranean-style diet works best for people who have APOE variants. Another keto diet that works well is paleo. The paleo diet includes red meat, no dairy, a lot of eggs, bacon, squash, and sweet potatoes. Lastly, a carnivore diet can work for you. This diet includes a lot of fatty protein! [34:40] What You Need To Know About Genetic Nutrition Testing The test is $360. Your kit will come to your house, and you will provide a sample of saliva. Then, mail the kit back, and you will have results in about a month. Unfortunately, knowing what to do with the report is challenging once you have it. Luckily, Kristina will have a consult with you about your results! Check out Kristina’s website to learn more: https://theketonutritionist.com/ [36:40] Is Counting Calories Good For Weight Loss? Weight loss is not as simple as counting calories. For instance, your sleep will affect your caloric expenditure. Also, gut health and mitochondrial health will change your caloric expenditure. The body is complex, beautiful, and intricate - counting calories doesn’t take that into consideration. The most important thing to remember is to eat real foods instead of processed foods. [43:00] Many People Don’t Even Know That They Are In Ketosis Many very lean people out there are inadvertently in ketosis and then just have no idea. Lean peo
Dr John Demartini | Signs Your Body Is Trying To Telling You Something Is Wrong, Why Symptoms Are Not Bad! KKP: 454

If you overeat and have symptoms, your body is telling you not to overeat. You shouldn’t live to eat. Instead, you should eat to perform at your peak. You won’t have symptoms out of the blue when you eat moderately quality foods. You can always trace your symptoms to a reason. Sadly, we have overlooked what the body’s wisdom is. The Wisdom of The Body: https://www.amazon.com/Wisdom-Body-Walter-B-Cannon/dp/0393002055/benazadi-20 [08:55] How The Sympathetic Nervous System Can Increase Blood Sugar Doctors are notorious for asking diabetes patients not to eat sugar and gain weight. However, these patients don’t often want to be told what to do. During these tough conversations, when someone has their sympathetic nervous system activated their blood sugar increases. Sadly, we don’t give people their accountability back to change their health. You can get a biochemical imbalance because you store up psychological issues that keep affecting hormones and transmitters. [28:50] You Can Take Control of Your Own Recovery and Your Own Life Take command of your life. Find alternatives to your health problems. There is no reason to exclude a health alternative. Love, Medicine and Miracles: Lessons Learned about Self-Healing from a Surgeon's Experience with Exceptional Patients: https://www.amazon.com/Love-Medicine-Miracles-Self-Healing-Exceptional/dp/0060919833/benazadi-20 Overall, patients can participate in their own recovery. [44:25] The Right Job Is Good For Your Health and Cardiovascular Risk Most people have the Monday morning blues. Sadly, many people are not inspired by their work. If you have an imbalance in cytokines, your immune system responds. You will have serious problems if your sympathetic and parasympathetic are out of balance. When someone is inspired by their work, their heart rate variability increases, their cytokines are normal, their blood pressure is down, and they don’t have any cardiovascular risk. [50:40] Why Judging Other People Is Harmful To Your Health When you look up to people, you minimize yourself, and your parasympathetic system dominates. When you look down on people and resent them, you exaggerate yourself, and your sympathetic system dominates. Whenever you judge, you feel empty. Instead, we want to feel fulfilled; love fulfills.

The inflammation after an acute injury is the first step of the healing process. So, why would you want to ice down an inflamed joint? If you do that, you are fighting what the body is trying to do. If you ice down a joint, it takes longer to heal, but you also increase your risk of winding up with a chronic disability. The second type of inflammation is called inappropriate chronic inflammation. This type of inflammation is caused by lifestyle choices and diet. Your weight will come off when you change nutrition, and your inflammation will decrease. Then, you’ll feel more motivated to exercise. Learn all about Dr Berry, and Ken Berry proper human diet which is his new book. Dr Ken Berry proper human diet is one of the best anti inflammatory diets you can follow. -------------------------------------------------------- / / E P I S O D E S P ON S O R S BiOptimizers Kapex Special Offer: www.kenergize.com/ketokamp Use the code ketokamp10 for 10% off PureForm Omega Plant Based Oils (Best Alternative to Fish Oil): http://www.purelifescience.com Use ben4 for $4.00 off.

The Meat Mafia | Amazing Health Benefits of Eating Red Meat, & How to Find the Best Quality Animal Products KKP: 452
Today, I am blessed to have here with me The Meat Mafia. The Meat Mafia officially began in January 2022 with one mission: to share their wealth of practical experiences in transforming their health through an active, animal-based lifestyle. Animal-based living emphasizes the elimination of processed foods and the consumption of whole natural foods. As the name suggests, most of these foods come from animal sources, from beef to honey. In their belief, locally sourced animal-based foods optimize personal and planetary health. In this episode, The Meat Mafia speak about their health issues and how eating a carnivore diet helped Brett reverse his ulcerative colitis and improved Harrison’s inflammatory skin problems. Then, the guys jump straight into stigmas around eating an animal-based diet and how the health of our environment actually depends on regenerative agriculture and ruminating animals. Tune in as we chat about finding the best sources for your animal-based diet and what you need to know about buying meat from the grocery store.

Colitis is an autoimmune disease that affects your large intestine, which is your colon. You can’t really process any food with ulcerative colitis. Doctors tell you that colitis is an incurable disease. After listening to Dr. Shawn Baker on Joe Rogan’s podcast, Brett changed his life forever. Listen to the episode here: https://open.spotify.com/episode/2auwtVto0sG7OcZ0hs3aOP?si=VF4iKaIcRvS_gar_nJrZ1g. Brett experimented with the carnivore diet, and he noticed all the bloating in his stomach was gone, his skin cleared up, and his energy improved. [15:10] A Keto Lifestyle Can Reduce Symptoms of Inflammatory Skin Problems Harrison’s first interaction with the healthcare system was from skin problems. His cystic acne had everything to do with his terrible diet. Ultimately, Harrison got on Accutane. Harrison tried the paleo diet during his first year of college, and his athletic training and energy levels improved. After trying keto, Harrison lost ten pounds in a matter of weeks. [29:10] The Health Grasslands and The Health of Ruminate Animals Are Interconnected There are still stigmas around red meat being a staple of healthy nutritional diets. Also, people don’t discuss animals’ role in restoring soil quality. Anti-meat people will gravitate toward the harmful practices of agriculture. However, there are ways to raise animals that improve the soil. The Meat Mafia likes to go to farms and learn stories about practicing regenerative agriculture. Check out Roam Ranch as an example: http://roamranch.com/ [34:20] Find A Local Farmer’s Market To Support The Best System Possible Here are some resources to check out about local food sources: Wild Food Sources: https://www.wildfoods.co/ Shire: https://shireapp.io/ Beef Initiative Food Intelligence Summit: https://beefinitiative.com/ Find a farmer’s market in your area and ask if they utilize regenerative practices. When you support local farmers, you’re supporting the right system, and you can nourish your family with the best quality protein possible. [40:55] Health Is Not An Expense; Health Is An Investment If you can’t afford meat from a local farmer, you can still eat the meat at a grocery store. Always do what is best for you and your budget. Eating stuff in the grocery store’s outer aisle will make you healthier than 99% of the population. However, supporting local farms is healthier for the supply chain and you. When you nourish the body with the proper nutrients, it will be an investment in your health. [43:05] What To Know About Shopping For Meat In The Grocery Store You need your beef to be pasture raised and 100% grass-fed. When you look at chicken and pork, they are fed corn and soy diets. If possible, steer towards a beef-based diet. Also, make sure your eggs are pasture-raised. Be careful about the marketing tricks that companies use. They could write “vegetarian fed.” In reality, that means they are being fed corn and soy. AND MUCH MORE!

Ryan Brown | Simple Steps to Reverse Autoimmune Disease For Good! KKP: 451
Today, I am blessed to have here with me Ryan Brown. Having battled years of eating disorders and the chronic consequences of such behavior, Ryan has decided to embark on another healing journey, bringing you the no-BS truth about healing using a ketogenic lifestyle! Where being fat adapted is king and allows you to pursue your individual health goals! In this episode, Ryan opens up about his eating disorder; he went from 88 pounds to 130. Unfortunately, that wasn’t the end of his health problems. Ryan speaks about his small fiber sensory neuropathy (SFSN) diagnosis. Plus, he talks about detoxing from heavy metals and mold toxicity. Later, Ryan dives into all things ketosis and busts some common misconnections people have around a keto lifestyle. Tune in as we chat about the importance of animal-based protein, cholesterol, and the most significant pharmaceutical scam in the medical industry.

He was 88 pounds and dealt with severe anorexia. Plus, Ryan was suffering from hardcore mental health problems. Eventually, Ryan got his weight up to 130. However, that wasn’t the end of his health problems. Despite gaining weight, Ryan’s energy never returned, and he never addressed his emotional trauma from childhood. Later, Ryan was diagnosed with small fiber sensory neuropathy (SFSN). [11:40] Mercury in Tuna: Measuring Heavy Metals in Human Hair One of Ryan Brown’s heroes is Dr. Terry Wahls. Learn more about Dr. Wahls here: https://terrywahls.com When Ryan did a deep dive on functional medicine, he looked at his mercury levels. At one point, Ryan had been eating tuna daily for four years. When Ryan tested his hair follicle levels for mercury, his levels came back extremely high. Blood tests will look at acute mercury, but they won’t give you chronic levels of mercury. The bigger the fish, the more toxins they are going to have. [18:20] Mold Toxicity: Getting Your Energy Levels Back With a Heavy Metal Detox Another deep dive Ryan did on his health was regarding mold toxicity. In LA, Ryan found black mold in his home; he lived in it for over a year. After moving out of that environment, Ryan’s energy levels finally increased. Detoxing from heavy metals and staying in ketosis have been total game-changers for Ryan’s health. [21:15] Free Tools to Improve and Support Your Mental Health Ryan will start his day by journaling. He writes about good things that are going on in his life. Once you believe in something, great things are going to happen. Plus, Ryan will spend as much time outside as possible. He loves to ground himself and practice breathing. Breathwork is one of the most potent mindset tools that we have. [27:40] Why Ryan Is Such a Big Fan of Getting Into Ketosis Ketosis is one of the most potent therapeutic tools anyone can use as a human being. Ketosis will help reset your body and give you humanity back. Infants are in ketosis, and women during pregnancy are in ketosis too. So many people in the United States are metabolically inflexible. Every single one of these people can benefit from ketosis. [30:10] Ryan Debunks Common Misconceptions About Keto Too many health coaches and influencers are making ketosis complicated. Ketosis is not complex; it’s simple. One of the biggest mistakes people make is eating things that are labeled “keto.” Nothing in the world labeled “keto” beats eating real and whole foods. You need to focus on real food instead of packaged and processed goods. Another thing people are getting wrong is worrying about eating too much protein. It’s actually pretty challenging to get into gluconeogenesis. [35:40] Animal-Based Proteins Are Amazing for the Human Body Pretty much everything you hear mainstream, almost the opposite is true. Animals have the full array of amino acids that the human body needs. While on the other hand, plants do not have the full array of amino acids we need. Ryan is a massive fan of eating fatty red meat. You need cholesterol to synthesize vitamin D. Also, don’t be afraid to eat eggs; eggs are great for your hormones. [39:30] Cholesterol Is Critical for the Body and Your Overall Health More people die from heart disease with normal to low cholesterol than with high cholesterol. Cholesterol is essential; your membrane is made up of partly cholesterol. Ryan says that statins are the most significant pharmaceutical scam in the medical i

It will cause you to burn excess body fat and improve your overall health. But there’s one important caveat. A constant, unrelenting state of ketosis—in which your body is burning its own fat for fuel—is obviously unsustainable, because eventually you’d have no more fat. In this chapter, we move into the Flex pillar, which will allow you to maintain your Keto lifestyle month after month, year after year. Four Reasons Why Prolonged Ketosis Is Counterproductive My mantra is, “Lose the excess fat; treasure the necessary fat.” Ketosis is a brilliant strategy for accomplishing the first goal. As for the second goal, prolonged ketosis doesn’t have an automatic shut-off valve. If you remain in state of constant ketosis, burning your own fat, then your body will keep doing that as long as it must to stay alive. If necessary to preserve life, once your fat is gone, various bodily functions will be shut off or minimized. This process of shutting down will continue until Mr. Death knocks on your door and says, “Sorry, buddy—time’s up.” No one wants that. To ensure that you’re well informed, let’s review some of the bad things that can happen if you go too far with ketosis. Fat Burning Slows Down As levels of body fat drop, your primal brain, whom we thought we had trained to accept a high-fat diet and fasting, will be aroused and will begin to object. Why and when will this happen? Your primal brain, that eternal watchdog, will sense that your reserves of fat are becoming depleted. Remembering those long periods of deprivation thousands of years ago, your primal brain will sound the alarm: The fat supply is running low! It will issue the command that your body must preserve its precious fuel. In response, your body will actually slow down fat burning—all for the sake of survival! When you stay in ketosis too long, the body starts to rebel, and conserve its fuel. A good analogy is if you lived out in the woods and you had stored 500 logs of firewood to heat your cabin for the winter. These were your reserves, because you could still go out and chop more firewood. So if you had to dip into these reserves, you wouldn’t be worried. But now it’s early March, and snow still covers the ground. It’s been a tough winter and you haven’t harvested many trees, and you see that you’ve got only 50 logs left. That’s a very low supply! Suddenly you’re reluctant to use them because you don’t want to run out. When you had 500 logs, you didn’t care about burning them. The same thing happens with your body fat. This is why when you stay low carbohydrate for too long, your body will slow down fat metabolism. And you know what? This is a good thing. There is a big difference between losing excess fat and losing all your fat. You want to lose excess fat. But your body needs a small amount of fat, and your primal brain is smart to insist that you meet this minimal requirement. Thyroid Problems Hormone production is often a function of a “chain of command,” as orders are passed from one organ to another, until the desired outcome is achieved. The hypothalamus and the pituitary gland, which are located in the brain, help control the thyroid gland, a butterfly-shaped gland located at the base of your throat, just below the Adam’s apple. To provide their direction to the thyroid, the hypothalamus releases thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH), which stimulates the pituitary gland to release thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH). When the hypothalamus and pituitary are working normally, they respond when: Thyroid hormone levels are low, so they secrete more TRH and TSH, which stimulates the thyroid to make more hormones. Thyroid hormone levels are too high, so they secrete less TRH and TSH, which reduces hormone production by the thyroid. The thyroid gland uses iodine from food to make two thyroid hormones: triiodothyronine (T3) and thyroxine (T4). The primary secretory product is inactive thyroxine (T4), which is a pro

Dr Rebecca Warren | How to Support Your Thyroid, Understanding Thyroid Labs, Autoimmune Thyroid Disease & More KKP: 445
Today, I am blessed to have here with me Dr. Rebecca Warren. She is a Functional Wellness Practitioner and Doctor of Chiropractic who specializes in women’s sex hormones, thyroid hormones, and healing after thyroidectomy. At 19, Dr. Rebecca was diagnosed with Follicular Variant Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma and had a complete thyroidectomy with high dose radiation- all of which was completely unnecessary. But she didn’t know what else to do. After having her thyroid removed, she suffered from hormone issues that Doctors would write off because all her labs looked “normal.” She suffered from depression, anxiety, weight loss resistance, and period issues with no help on how to get better. It wasn’t until she decided to draw a line in the sand that no doctor would know more about her body than she did; her health transformed. She has spent the past decade and a half studying the literature, implementing protocols, using the most up-to-date functional labs and testing, and ancestral tools (like fasting and diet variation) to not only take back her health but to help thousands of men and women to do the same. Her goal is to help people avoid her unnecessary suffering and help those that may be on a hopeless path right now. Dr. Rebecca practices with her husband in Chattanooga, TN, and does virtual coaching worldwide. Their approach is simple but powerful: get to the cause, support the body, and trust and know that the body was created to heal itself. In this episode, Dr. Rebecca opens the show by discussing the inspiration behind her podcast, The Thyroidless Life. Then, Dr. Rebecca dives deep into everything you need to know about thyroid health. Dr. Rebecca explains why one autoimmune disease will most likely lead to another one down the road. Plus, Dr. Rebecca speculates why COVID and the COVID vaccinations could worsen your thyroid problems.

Whether you have a thyroid or not, thyroid healing and hormone balancing is a lifetime practice. The Thyroidless Life Podcast is a podcast about detoxing and fasting for hormone health. Rebecca wishes she had this information 17 years ago. Listen to the podcast here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-thyroidless-life/id1623271333 [03:10] Why One Autoimmune Disease Will Lead to Another An autoimmune issue is systemic, and it comes from an immune imbalance. Rebecca specializes in the thyroid; over 90% of thyroid disorders, whether you're hyper or hypo is an autoimmune disorders. When you have an autoimmune disorder, you get a name for it, like Hashimotos. You don’t just have a thyroid issue; you have a whole body issue. When you have one autoimmune disorder in your body, you're three times as likely to develop another. [06:50] Are the COVID Vaccines Leading To Thyroid Issues? You must ensure you've got the nutrition down; that's foundational. When your adrenals are good, then you have to start detoxing. Rebecca implores everyone to look at what's happened with their health in the last two and a half years. Having the COVID virus can create a thyroid storm and a thyroid issue. Two or three COVID vaccinations are also leading to thyroid issues. [16:00] The Thyroid Tests to Ask Your Doctor For As Soon As Possible You need a full wellness panel. First, look at your C-reactive protein. Also, make sure you know your fasting insulin and homocysteine. Homocysteine levels that are trending high mean there will be a methylation issue. When looking at thyroid, you need to do the full panel. Above all, make sure you know your Reverse T3. TSI, TPO, and thyroid globulin antibodies are also essential. Get these numbers done every single year; if they start to rise, you need to do something about it. [20:40] T4 & T3 Replacement Hormones to Repair Your Thyroid Problems If your doctor doesn’t want to order panels, then find someone who will. When your panels come back and things don’t look right, you may need to use grass-fed glandular. Grass-fed glandulars can help strengthen your thyroid and give you the needed hormones. Utilizing clean meds can help you get your head above water. Rebecca recommends WP Thyroid: https://wpthyroid.com/ You may also need Nature-Throid: https://www.naturethroid.com/ [27:30]
2 Krazy Ketos | How The Keto Lifestyle Can Change Your Life FOREVER! KKP: 444
Today, I am blessed to have here with me Joe and Rachel. They are happily married with three wonderful boys: John Paul, Anthony, and Caleb. After years of trying every type of weight loss plan you can think of, from severe calorie restriction to CrossFit, they decided to try the ketogenic lifestyle. Thankful for the opportunity to look forward to a happy and healthy future with their three adult sons, Joe and Rachel are excited to share their keto journey and hopefully encourage other families to change their diet and change their lives. After discovering the keto diet in 2017 and experiencing life-changing health results, Joe and Rachel made it their mission to share their testimony with as many people as possible. Their great hope is to encourage others who have experienced lifelong weight struggles and medical concerns. It is a game changer for their family to learn first-hand that diagnoses like morbid obesity, diabetes, arthritis, digestive issues, and chronic pain don’t have to be a life sentence. Joe and Rachel want you and your family to experience improved health. In this episode, Rachel and Joe open the show by speaking about their past health problems, including a lifetime of obesity, chronic pain, arthritis, acne, plantar fasciitis, and migraines. After trying a ketogenic lifestyle, Rachel and Joe stopped their symptoms and completely changed their health and mental wellbeing. You’ll hear Rachel and Joe give tips on getting your significant other to try a ketogenic lifestyle. Tune in as we chat about the importance of self-love and the inspiration behind Joe and Rachel’s YouTube channel, 2 Krazy Ketos. Check out their videos here: https://www.youtube.com/c/2krazyketos.

One day, Joe decided to look into keto. After trying keto, Joe immediately dropped twenty pounds in the first month. Joe lost eighty pounds after six months of keto. Plus, Joe no longer needed to take painkillers and arthritis pills on the keto diet. [06:20] Dieting for Decades: The Keto Lifestyle Is a Game-Changer for Rachel Rachel had been obese her entire life, and she had been dieting for decades. It was challenging for Rachel to make friends; she was teased a lot at school. Rachel thought the only way to maintain success was calorie restriction. Eventually, Rachel reduced her calories to 500 a day. Once Rachel tried keto, her plantar fasciitis, migraines, and acne were all gone. Plus, she finally had sustainable weight loss. [12:55] Struggling With Emotional Battles and Working On Self-Love Joe still looks in the mirror and sees the 300-pound Joe. One thing Joe tells himself is that the scale is the devil and the mirror is a liar. Even after losing weight, Joe has an emotional battle when he looks in the mirror. After decades of being so hard on ourselves, we have to do strength training in positivity. We falsely believe that we can love others and just skip that step of loving ourselves. In reality, we need to put energy into loving ourselves. [18:00] How to Get Your Significant Other on Board With a Ketogenic Lifestyle People don’t get on board with keto because they think it’s another fad diet. Don’t try and push your significant other. Instead, lead by example. Make sure to come from a place of love. Joe was passionate about keto, so he cooked all the meals. That way, Rachel would jump on board. People must come on board when they are ready for keto. Otherwise, the lifestyle will never work. [33:05] Looking for Support? Find Community With 2 Krazy Ketos Joe and Rachel wanted to devise a way to talk to one another without bringing up the children. So, Joe wanted to start a YouTube channel. They make YouTube videos about what they eat and how they lost weight with keto. Eventually, Joe and Rachel started a community space, and they love facilitating community wherever they go.

Dr Will Cole | How to Use Intermittent Fasting to Reboot Your Metabolism & Fix Digestive Issues KKP: 443
Today, I am blessed to have here with me for the THIRD time Dr. Will Cole. He is a leading functional-medicine expert, consults people around the world via webcam and locally in Pittsburgh. This is a REPEAT EPISODE from May 2021. He specializes in clinically investigating underlying factors of chronic disease and customizing health programs for thyroid issues, autoimmune conditions, hormonal dysfunctions, digestive disorders, and brain problems. Dr. Cole was named one of the top 50 functional-medicine and integrative doctors in the nation and is a health expert and course instructor for the world’s largest wellness brands such as mindbodygreen and goop. In this episode, Dr. Cole opens the show explaining the meaning behind intuitive fasting. If you’re not metabolically flexible, fasting will be anything but intuitive. However, when you are finally metabolically flexible, you will intuitively fast and eat. Dr. Cole explains why he’s such a massive fan of fasting for overall health and the ways fasting will help heal your gut. Later, Dr. Cole answers common questions regarding fasting, like if it will help you lose weight and why you can’t fast when you’re eating a poor diet. Tune in as we chat about our favorite supplements for fasting and how tea can be beneficial on your health journey.

[01:00] Intuitive Fasting To Renew Your Health And Recharge Your Metabolism The idea of eating only one or two meals a day sounds like an extreme and overly restrictive dieting tactic to most of America. But the truth is, our daily eating schedule—three meals a day, plus snacks—does not necessarily reflect our bodies’ natural cycles. Cole’s book is all about intuitive fasting. However, fasting will be anything but intuitive when you're metabolically inflexible. Instead, the book is a conversation about showing up for yourself to become metabolically flexible. When you are finally metabolically flexible, you will intuitively fast and eat. You can mindfully use intermittent fasting to gain metabolic flexibility so you can hear what your body truly loves. [05:25] Why Dr. Cole Is A Huge Fan Of Fasting For His Health Fasting is an amazing tool, and it's completely free. Plus, fasting is something that it's actually encoded in our DNA. Researchers estimate that our genetics haven't changed in 10,000 years. Your body is made to do so much. It’s time to wake up the body's ability to heal itself and wake up the body's ability to calm inflammation. Sadly, we are living so out of alignment with our biochemistry that we put a lot of our body's healing capacity just to sleep. Fasting is a matter of letting our bodies remember what we were born with. Overall, fasting is an amazing tool that clinically really improves people's labs. [09:25] How Fasting Can Actually Heal Your Gut + Reset Your Digestive System Your microbiome is actually repairing through the night and recalibrating through the night. When you fast, it is calming down the inflammatory cascades that are going on. Also, fasting doesn’t mean that you are cutting calories. Instead, you're eating the same number of foods, you're just eating in specific windows to give your body a little bit more of a fasting time than you normally would. The more often you can fast, you're going to be able to regenerate and repair the gut in a big way. Digesting food requires a lot of energy; so, you're giving your gut a break to not work on digesting food. [13:45] What Food Freedom Means To Dr. Cole Food peace is going longer without eating, not because it's restrictive - but because you can do it, and you feel great doing it. Also, food peace means you can break the fast when you want to. Intuitive fasting can be scary; it can be triggering for people that are addicted to food. Just because something's common doesn't necessarily mean it's normal – most people in the United States have a massive blood sugar problem. The traditional way that American’s live their lives are, in many ways, self-harm; it's not self-respect at all. Food freedom is integrating things in your life that make you feel great. [17:55] The Combination Of Keto And Fasting Is A Total Game-Changer You can’t fast your way out of a poor diet. Dr. Cole doesn’t advocate for people to have these extreme approaches to fasting, where it's like an eating disorder disguised as a wellness practice. Fasting should be a tool that can actually heal your relationship with food, heal your relationshi
Todd White | The Best vs Worst Alcohol to Consume on the Keto Diet KKP: 442
Today, I am blessed to have here with me Todd White. As the founder of Dry Farm Wines, a writer, speaker, and leader in the organic/Natural Wine movement, Todd White has widely educated communities on conscious consumption. Todd is a self-described biohacker who practices daily meditation, Wim Hof breathing, cold thermogenesis, a ketogenic diet, and daily 22-hour intermittent fasting. He is also a frequent speaker on topics including meditation and the Dry Farm Wines unique company culture. Built on a foundation of honesty and peace, Dry Farm Wines has seen remarkable growth, making it one of the fastest growing private companies in the U.S., without any debt or investors. Dry Farm Wines is endorsed by many leading U.S. performance influencers with pure Natural Wines that are lab tested to ensure each bottle is sugar-free (0-0.15g per glass), lower in sulfites, and lower in alcohol (under 12.5% alc/vol). The wines are friendly to low carb, Paleo, ketogenic, and low sugar diets. Dry Farm Wines is proud to be the largest Natural Wine merchant in the world, bringing awareness to Natural Wine consumption and supporting farmers who honor the soil. In this episode, Todd reveals the inspiration behind his company Dry Farm Wines. Following a ketogenic lifestyle, Todd started to relate to alcohol negatively. Eventually, this led to the creation of Dry Farm Wines and Todd’s immense passion for organic natural wine. Todd explains why you can’t buy healthy wine at a conventional store and why organic wine isn’t the same as natural wine.

When Todd was therapeutically ketogenic, he had a negative relationship with wine. For many people who become ketogenic, it’s common that their relationship with alcohol also changes. Several factors that impact your relationship with alcohol - sugar and stress are significant. After stumbling upon an organic natural wine, Todd did some lab testing on wines. Eventually, Todd started Dry Farm Wines. Learn more here: http://www.ketokampwine.com [15:30] Why You Can’t Buy Healthy Wine at Your Conventional Store Excess drinking can cause inflammation. Todd will drink wines that are between 10 and 11% alcohol. Conventional wines are generally 14 to 15% alcohol. Because there is less alcohol in natural wine, it dramatically affects how you feel, your brain health, and your inflammation. Wine used to be a healthy drink; now, wine is unhealthy. Multi-billion dollar marketing conglomerates are making wine production cheaper and faster. So, the wines in your typical store are unhealthy and cheaply made. [26:50] Did You Know That Wine Is the Only Major Food Group Without a Contents Label? Wine is the only major food group without a contents label. There is no content label or nutritional information on the wine. Sugar is the most widely addictive and abused drug on the planet, leading to chronic illness. The wine industry has spent millions of dollars in lobby money over the years to keep content labeling off of wine because they don't want you to know what's in it. [29:40] Health Leaders Recommend Drinking Tequila; However, It May Not Be the Best Choice Many health leaders recommend tequila as the alcohol of choice if you’re going to drink. Tequila is a distilled spirit that is pure and clean. Plus, it comes from a plant. The problem with tequila is that it is 45% alcohol. Alcohol is not your friend; it has limited benefits in the right dosage in the right way. The more alcohol you drink, the more likely you will consume even more. [34:00] Natural Wine Is Always Organic or Biodynamically Grown The most significant hallmark of natural wine is it is always organic or biodynamically grown. Not all organic wines are natural; however, natural wines are always organic. Drinking organic wine is better than drinking non-organic wine. Biodynamic farming was developed in 1925 as an advanced form of organic farming. This type of farming will include harvesting based on the lunar cycle, and they create natural organic potions for the vines. [38:35] Natural Wine Is Always Fermented With Wild Indigenous Native Yeast The next hallmark of natural wine is that they are always fermented with wild indigenous native yeast. Commercial wines are always fermented with GMO lab-cultured yeast. You can't make commercial

[00:25] About Dr. Vera Tarman And The Inspiration Behind Food Junkies Vera is an addiction specialist. She sees people coming into a residential setting, they're putting down their alcohol, cocaine, cigarettes, and marijuana. However, they start picking up the sugar. Within two or three weeks, they started to gain a lot of weight. Eating was very much like their previous behavior of addiction. Now, Dr. Vera loves to talk about the addiction that people have with food. Plus, she even wrote a book on the subject – Food Junkies. It’s a fact-filled guide to coping with compulsive overeating problems. Overeating, binge eating, obesity, anorexia, and bulimia – Dr. Vera tackles the poorly understood issue of food addiction in her book. Get Food Junkies: https://www.amazon.ca/Food-Junkies-Recovery-Addiction/dp/1459741978/benazadi-20 [06:05] How Can Food Become Addictive? The inspiration for Food Junkies came from another book, Hooked. Hooked is about the troubling story of how food companies have exploited our most fundamental evolutionary instincts to get us hooked on processed foods. Get Hooked: https://www.amazon.ca/Hooked-Food-Giants-Exploit-Addictions/dp/0771059590/benazadi-20 The food industry has made our food addictive by targeting the chemistry in our brains. Sadly, the food industry has figured out that the reward pathway will keep people coming back for their food. Brilliant scientists are paid good money to figure out how to activate those pathways. [08:50] The Negative Impacts On Your Brain When Consuming Sugars Sugars will light up part of the brain that’s emotional and impulsive. It’s the part of our brain that makes us do things without thought - this is all subconscious thinking. Plus, sugar will trigger dopamine primarily, which is our neurochemical of desire. There's also endorphins and serotonin. Endorphins trigger comfort while serotonin triggers connectedness. Addiction will make you want an entire bag of chips. You can’t stop at one or two because your neural biology is so damaged. The physical manifestations of sugar and high-carb addiction are happening in the brain. [17:00] What You Need To Know About The Different Stages of Food Addiction When we talk about food addiction, it's essentially like diabetes. Food addiction is a chronic and progressive condition. You may have a food addiction if you would rather stay at home and eat instead of going out for a social occasion. If you consistently do not feel well because of the food you eat, you may be suffering from food addiction. Another sign of food addiction is eating foods that you know are not going to make you feel good. If your obsession with food is excessive, then you are a food addict. Lastly, if you are in trouble with your health, then you may be a food addict. “You have to be very careful if you're moving down this path of food addiction.” -Dr. Vera [25:25] Fasting For People With Addictions To Food Cutting out sugar will be the first step for people who have an addiction to food. Sugar is the trigger – so, ditch the trigger! If you have a food addiction, be aware of pitfalls. If you have a history of star

[00:55] Embracing Changes To Succeed On Your Health Journey Larry had to embrace change and make his health a priority to succeed. In the past, Larry was morbidly obese and had IBS, bloody gums, bloody stools, severe asthma, allergies, depression, and brain fog. One day, Larry stopped buying bread and pasta. Plus, he threw out the canola oil and did a whole pantry makeover. Larry recommends reading Grain Brain: https://www.amazon.com/Grain-Brain-Surprising-Sugar-Your-Killers/dp/031623480X/benazadi-20. Also, Larry says he learned a lot from Eat Like A Human: https://eatlikeahuman.com/. In total, Larry has lost 120 pounds. [09:25] Both Kay Lynne and Larry Have Benefited From Lifestyle Changes As an elementary school teacher, Kay Lynne ate a lot of processed foods throughout the day. When Larry changed his diet, Kay Lynne followed suit. Larry and Kay Lynne started intermittent fasting organically because they simply weren’t hungry. Kay Lynne’s heaviest weight was 210, and she lost 70 pounds. [16:25] Changing Your Lifestyle Can Make Your Relationships Even Better Larry and Kay Lynne’s relationship got better when they changed their diets. Not being hungry all the time was one of the best benefits of their lifestyle changes. Plus, Larry and Kay Lynne feel more comfortable in their bodies. Weight loss is excellent for a better and more pleasurable experience in your own body. [21:00] Remember That We Are Still Fundamentally Our Ancestors Larry recommends checking out Primal Blueprint: https://www.primalblueprint.com/ Primal Blueprint focuses not just on food but on the whole person. Movement and mindset are also crucial on your journey to health. Sometimes people just try and change their food. Well, there are so many other things you need to consider when becoming healthy. Remember, we are still fundamentally our ancestors. [31:55] The Importance of Feasting and Fasting In Your Lifestyle The only thing better than fasting is eating, and the only thing better than eating is fasting. Our ancestors enjoyed large full meals. The only thing constant about nature is change. So why shouldn’t we change our diet? You can eat higher real food carbs productively during a feast. Carb cycling is a great way to make sure you don’t plateau. Variation is magic when it comes to your health! [38:05] How To Inspire Your Partner To Make Lifestyle Changes You should lead by example when making lifestyle changes with your spouse. Remember, you can’t control the people around you. Stick to your lifestyle changes and show your partner how much better you feel. Larry’s enthusiasm and consistency motivated Kay Lynne to change her diet and lifestyle. For your journey to success, we all have to know that even our best friend and closest partner is not responsible for what we put in our mouths. We can’t force change; we can serve as an example.

Dr Brian Lenzkes | The Real Cause of Insulin Resistance & How to Lower Your Insulin Levels KKP: 436
Today, I am blessed to have here with me Dr. Brian Lenzkes. He is an internal medicine doctor based in San Diego who has focused much of his attention on clinical nutrition. He owned his own medical practice with a group of physicians from 2004-2020. Dr. Lenzkes is co-host of the popular LowCarbMD podcast, which has more than 1.4 million downloads, and is a professional speaker. Dr. Lenzkes attended UC Irvine and received a Bachelor of Science in Biology before attending the University of Southern California Medical School. After graduating in 1999, he started his Residency Program at Scripps Mercy Hospital in San Diego. He extended his residency for a year to serve as Chief Resident before starting his private practice career at Internal Medicine Associates in 2004. Dr. Lenzkes has been voted one of the "Top Doctors" in San Diego for 11 years. Even after gaining the medical community's and his patients' respect, Dr. Lenzkes felt a void as many patients with chronic conditions became sick and required more medications. At the same time, Dr. Lenzkes battled his own weight gain while following 'standard medical advice.' In this episode, Dr. Lenzkes first reveals how he learned about a fasting and low-carb lifestyle. After trying it himself, Dr. Lenzkes lost the weight he gained while following 'standard medical advice.' Dr. Lenzkes dives deep into the correlation between high insulin levels and cardiovascular disease. If you haven't already, now is the time to check your insulin levels. Tune in as we chat about reversing type 2 diabetes, the importance of muscle mass, and the massive problem with chronic stress.

Text me the words "Podcast" +1 (786) 364-5002 to be added to my contacts list. [01:10] Learning About Fasting and Low-Carb In The Medical Community Throwing drugs at people with diabetes, hypertension, and obesity doesn’t do anything. One patient found fasting successful, and Dr. Lenzkes decided to research the lifestyle. After losing weight with fasting and low-carb, Dr. Lenzkes was hesitant to share this new information with his patients. Dr. Lenzkes got a lot of backlash from his colleagues. However, Dr. Lenzkes gets patients off insulin; not many people can say that. [13:30] The Correlation Between High Insulin Levels and Cardiovascular Disease There's a massive correlation between high insulin levels and cardiovascular disease. Nearly 100% of Dr. Lenzkes’s patients have never had an insulin check until seeing him. You don’t just wake up with type two diabetes; you have ten years to predict that diabetes is coming before you get it. Lower your insulin levels; that way, you won’t need as much insulin to get the desired effect. Dr. Lenzkes highly recommends checking out Dr. Jason Fung’s work. Find it here: https://www.thefastingmethod.com/. [19:40] How Exercise and Movement Will Help Prevent Type 2 Diabetes Most diabetics, if you look at their lab work untreated, they're going to have high triglycerides in that 300 to 500 range. LDL can be increased or low; it doesn't matter. HDL will be low. When you get HDL right and the triglycerides come down, you feel a lot better. Exercise and stress management is essential because it helps burn sugar and your fat reserves. When you run out of reserves, you have diabetes because the sugar stays in your bloodstream. [31:50] The Reason Doctors Don’t Talk About Diet and Lifestyle During A Visit Dr. Lenzkes uses a company called Ulta Lab Tests: https://www.ultalabtests.com/. Patients can order Ulta, or your doctor can get it for less. Doctors have been trained a certain way, so they may not want to test for insulin. Plus, doctors are pressed for time and are judged based on how many patients they see each day. Many doctors only see a patient for nine minutes. It is impossible to talk about diet and lifestyle during these visits. [36:10] Many Doctors Don’t See The Truth; Instead, They Stick With What They Learned In Medical Schools Doctors are taught that you need three meals daily, and breakfast is the day's most important meal. However, that’s simply not the case. Doctors stick with what they learn no matter what evidence says otherwise. Many doctors will see high blood pressure and tell people to cut salt. Well, salt is high because insulin is high. High insulin causes you to retain sodium in your kidney. The answer should be to lower insulin instead. [42:50] Lower
Drew Manning | Why Transforming Your Physical Body is Way More Emotional Than You Think KKP: 435
Today, I am blessed to have for a second time Drew Manning. Drew is the New York Times best-selling author of Fit2Fat2Fit: The Unexpected Lessons from Gaining and Losing 75 lbs on Purpose and has for years been a leading voice in the burgeoning Keto Diet movement. Drew is also the creator of the A&E Show Fit to Fat to Fit and the host of The Fit2Fat2Fit Experience podcast. With over a million social media followers, Drew continues to transform people's lives all around the world. Known for his straightforward and empathetic fitness and health coaching, Drew has been featured on The Dr. Oz Show, CNN, Good Morning America, The Tonight Show, The View, and MSNBC, among other media outlets. He lives in Salt Lake City, Utah, with his daughters, who remind him every day not to take things too seriously. In this episode, Drew talks about his first two Fit2Fat2Fit experiments. He reveals what the most challenging aspects of gaining 75 pounds and losing it again were. As a personal trainer, Drew realized that he was totally wrong in his approach to helping people transform. In reality, life's emotional and mental side has way more impact on our physical transformations than we realize. Later, Drew talks about the importance of becoming comfortable with being uncomfortable on any transformational journey. Tune in as Drew answers questions from the Keto Kamp listeners at the end of the show.

[02:20] All About Drew’s First Fit2Fat2Fit Experiment In 2011, Drew did his first Fit2Fat2Fit experiment. As a personal trainer, Drew had never once been overweight a day in his life. However, Drew’s clients were overweight pretty much every day of their life. Unfortunately, Drew couldn't understand why it's so hard for them to follow the meal plans and do the workouts that he gave them. So, Drew went on a journey to gain a better understanding of what it was like to be overweight, and he put on 75 pounds in six months. Drew learned that he was totally wrong in his approach to helping people transform. [10:05] Dealing With A Breakup Was The Hardest Part of Fit2Fat2Fit Drew and his girlfriend broke up during the Fit2Fat2Fit experiment. Many people ask if the breakup was because of this journey, and the honest truth is no. Sadly, they had problems before the journey even started. However, the problems were amplified because of Drew’s unhealthy physical state, which affected his emotional state. When you’re unhealthy, your ability to handle stress is severely diminished. Plus, you're more reactive, and you're in survival mode. Overall, unhealthy living causes a lot more issues in whatever relationship you're in, whether it’s romantic, friendships, or family. After the breakup, Drew was sad, lonely, and depressed. It was the hardest part of the journey for Drew. [18:20] The Transition Back To ‘Fit’ After Gaining So Much Weight Drew made the transition back to being ‘fit’ cold turkey. He flipped the switch and went completely keto. Drew was excited, but he did not underestimate the power of withdrawal symptoms. Drew’s body would almost fight back against him with cravings to eat the processed food because he had trained it for so long to eat that. Thousands of people signed up to follow Drew on his journey, so that’s what motivated him to keep going. Community is a powerful tool on any journey of wellness. [21:55] Physical Transformation Is Way More Emotional Than We Think The stresses of life don't go away when you're on a physical weight loss journey. If you're not prepared to deal with the emotional challenges that have been holding you back from living that healthy physical lifestyle, then transformation will not be manageable. You need new thought patterns so you can actually have success on the physical transformation side. If we can give people tools on the emotional side, then they will be able to handle physical transformations. [26:00] The Importance of Becoming Comfortable In Uncomfortable Situations Here are some tools to help strengthen the mental side of your transformation: Make your bed every single day. Take a cold shower for 60 seconds. Write a daily gratitude list. Say positive affirmations each day. These things can be uncomfortable for lots of people, but training your brain to become comfortable in these uncomfortable situations can carry over into eating healthy food. We can become comfortable in these uncomfortable situations. That way,
Mark Groves | How to Set Boundaries, Love Myself More & Be Happy KKP: 434

Mark is endlessly curious about the human experience and shares what he’s learning as he learns it. Mark helps people understand their emotional matrix by mastering themselves through their words. He takes what you think you want, finds out what you want, and gives you the tools to achieve your goals. In this episode, Mark speaks about the importance of authenticity on your journey of healing. Then, Mark dives deep into his past, including the challenging decision to call off his engagement. In society, we place a high value on our relationship status; Mark explains why the most important relationship you should have is with yourself. Plus, if you’re in a high-conflict relationship, it could be detrimental to your health. Tune in as we chat about healthy boundaries, learning to love, and how to avoid losing yourself in a relationship.

[01:00] Authenticity Will Be Your Best Path To Find Healing on Your Health Journey When are you pretending to be someone you’re not? Whenever you pretend to be someone else, you’re telling yourself that you’re not enough. Authenticity is one of the most significant paths to healing. You can only heal yourself by being aligned. [09:10] Value Is Placed On Your Relationship Status - It’s Time To Change The Status Quo In society, your value is placed on your relationship status. People ask why you’re single. They ask when you’re getting engaged. When you’re engaged, they ask when you will get married. If you get divorced, then people think that means you failed. Well, one of the greatest gifts we can give is recognizing the value of goodbyes. Sometimes, the most loving thing you can do is leave. After three months of engagement, Mark left his relationship. [17:00] Stress and High Conflict Relationships Are Creating Poor Health High conflict couples have higher amounts of leaky gut. There’s an inflammatory process that occurs when we're dysregulated. When you avoid chaos on the outside, you internalize it. If you’re anxious about something, it can lead to a sick stomach. The journey of relationships is teaching us how incredibly wise we are. [22:10] Are You Going To A Job That You Hate? Stop Doing Things You Don’t Love Most heart attacks happen on Monday morning between 8 am and 9 am. Your body gives many warnings; it’s normal to live through those warnings. When we perpetually do things we don’t love, it sends the message that we don’t believe in ourselves. If you want to find what matters to you, then find what breaks your heart. After Mark’s relationship ended, he felt so connected to himself. However, he was judged by everyone for it. [27:45] Please Avoid Losing Yourself In Your Relationships When a relationship ends, you’ll hear people say, “they took a part of me.” In society, we are taught that people complete us. Also, it’s normal to give up everything for love. However, if you lose your relationship, you end up losing yourself. [39:40] Why You Shouldn’t Feel Guilty About Expressing Boundaries When you are afraid to express a boundary, it comes from a beautiful place. If you don’t want to communicate your boundaries, most likely, you are trying to protect other people from experiencing feelings. When Mark quit drinking, he feared what other people would think of him at weddings, bachelor parties, and guys trips. However, Mark had gone to his first wedding sober and had the time of his life. If you’re not expressing boundaries, you are making other people’s feelings more important than your own. [47:00] Allow Other People To Be Disappointed Because Boundaries Will Preserve Your Wholeness Allow other people to be disappointed. Don’t try and save people from disappointment, and don’t let their disappointment correlate to how you feel about yourself. Boundaries will preserve wholeness. When you declare a boundary, you have your own back. [57:40] Take The Time To Learn About Love Love is a verb. If we make withdrawals from our love accounts, we can also make deposits. Great relationships don’t just come to people; they are created through behaviors. We need to take the time to learn love, and everyone can learn it. AND MUCH MORE!

Dr Lori Shemek | How Inflammation Is KILLING YOU, Causing Weight Gain, & Ways To REDUCE IT TODAY! KKP: 432
Today, I am grateful to have here with me, a pioneer in creating global awareness of low-level inflammation and how it is the underlying cause of most illness, disease, faster aging and weight gain, Dr. Lori Shemek. She has been sending out the message about inflammation long before it was a buzz word. Dr. Lori has uncovered the pathway to the core cause of weight: inflamed fat cells that not only promote unwanted excess weight gain and belly fat, but poor health as well. Lori Shemek is a Nutrition and Weight Loss expert, a best-selling author and specializes in weight loss resistance. She has helped many people to once and for all.. lose the weight and feel better fast. She shows people how to spot sneaky foods that create weight gain, to kick sugar addiction to the curb, and shift from eating the wrong foods to the exact foods that burn fat. Dr. Shemek is an award-winning, bestselling author of How To Fight FATflammation!; The Ketogenic Key; Beginner’s Guide to Intermittent Fasting and Fire-Up Your Fat Burn! She is a leading health and weight loss expert and also known as “The Inflammation Terminator.” She has made it her mission to help clients lose weight and educate the public on the toxic effects of certain foods and lifestyle choices and how they create inflammation in the body resulting in weight gain. She is a leading authority on inflammation and its role in weight loss, preventing disease and optimizing health. The Huffington Post has recognized Dr. Shemek twice as one of the Top 16 Health and Fitness Experts, alongside such names as Dr. Oz and David Zinczenko, author of Eat This, Not That.

She smoked cigarettes, was obese, had a horrible diet, and was under a lot of chronic stress. Unfortunately, her mom died at 36. Dr. Lori made it her mission to help people in the health realm. Lori created her own company to help people with their health. Many people feel like they don’t have a choice when it comes to their health. However, that’s far from the truth. 80% is a choice – we can change our gene expression. [08:20] Why Dr. Lori Focuses on Inflammation Lori would read about inflammation at school – she realized that it was the key. If you can decrease your inflammation, then you can prevent so many diseases, ill-health, and weight gain. It is extremely beneficial to understand that inflammation is the reason for many health issues. [09:20] The Differences Between Acute Inflammation and Silent Inflammation We have three types of inflammation: Acute: we know the inflammation is there because it’s uncomfortable, and it hurts. It’s a cut on your finger, the terrible head cold, and the sprained ankle. This inflammation is great because it tells you that something is wrong with your body. Silent: the name suggests danger. It’s silent; you don’t know it’s there. 75% of our country has silent inflammation, and they don’t even know it. It’s the core cause of illness, disease, faster aging, and weight gain. Fatflammation: fat cell inflammation is silent inflammation in the fat cells. The types of foods most Americans are eating is creating a body that is producing inflammatory molecules. When the fat cell gets bloated, it expands. The fat cell won’t be happy. When the fat cell is not happy, it will act like it’s sick or infected. Unfortunately, doctors will put a band-aid on chronic inflammation. [15:15] Foods For Inflammation Keto is an anti-inflammatory diet. Foods that will stop inflammation are things like omega-3. The critical foods for keto: Wild, fatty fish Seafood Berries Green tea The keto choices that we have are usually anti-inflammatory [17:15] The Problem With Consuming Unstable Fats on Keto Our cell membrane is thin, but it’s essential for optimal health. The health of our cell membrane w

[02:00] The Inspiration Behind Dr. Mansor’s Career As H.V.M.N.’s Research Lead Dr. Mansor grew up in a family with a high prevalence of diabetes. His father passed away from a stroke, and his brother passed away from a heart attack. Growing up, Dr. Mansor was overweight. During his undergrad, Dr. Mansor learned about physiology and metabolism. Plus, during college, Dr. Mansor started to exercise and actually enjoyed exercise for the first time in his life. With all this knowledge, Dr. Mansor realized he could be healthy without worrying about the diseases his family members suffered from. [10:35] Why Are 88% of American Adults Metabolically Inflexible? Your nerves have a higher risk of getting damaged when there is a constant increase in elevated glucose in the blood. Your body knows something is wrong with increased glucose, which triggers chronic inflammation. Metabolism is all about balance and moderation. Every enzyme has a specific temperature range at which it’s optimal. When you activate inflammation constantly, there are bound to be adverse side effects. [15:35] Life Is All About Challenges and Growth - Use Trial and Error To Find Your Sweet Spot Life is all about giving yourself a challenge, adapting, learning, and growing. Next time you face the same challenge, you can tackle it in a much more efficient way. It can be difficult to find the sweet spot when you are challenging yourself. Dr. Mansor uses a trial and error approach when it comes to knowing his sweet spot while exercising. Your body will adapt. People want instant change; however, you need to give your body time to change. [22:40] You Need To Train Your Body To Respond To Certain Conditions Effectively and Optimally Metabolic inflexibility is your body’s inability to switch from burning glucose to burning fat. When there is dysfunction, there is bound to be a deficiency, and there is bound to be wasted energy. Everyone thinks cortisol is the bad guy; however, you need cortisol to function. The goal is not to shut down whatever is related to chronic disease. Instead, you want to train your body to respond to specific conditions effectively and optimally. [30:20] Exogenous Ketones Are a Source of Energy and Can Help Lower Your Hunger Hormones Ketones are fuel for you to create energy. There are still calories with exogenous ketones. You won't lose weight if you have too many calories and are not exercising. Ghrelin is the hunger hormone. Ketones can help lower that hunger hormone. [36:05] Exogenous Ketones Are Useful For Getting Back Into Ketosis If you are following a ketogenic diet, you may not need exogenous ketones. However, do you have a hard time getting back into ketosis? If you fall out of ketosis, exogenous ketones can be a helpful way for you to get back into ketosis. Exogenous ketones are also a great tool to use before exercising. [43:20] The Brain Doesn’t Metabolize Glucose As Efficiently After A Traumatic Brain Injury Dr. Mansor researched how ketones can be a therapeutic intervention to treat traumatic brain injury. Within 48 hours, studies show hypermetabolism of glucose after trauma. Some researchers think the body wants glucose for energy to repair. Ketones can help give the brain another option to produce energy. For s
Brian Sanders | Eat More Red Meat, Cows Are NOT Bad For The Environment KKP: 430
Today, I am blessed to have here with me Brian Sanders. He is the filmmaker behind the Food Lies documentary, host of the top 5 nutrition podcast Peak Human, and an international speaker. He graduated from UCLA with a degree in Mechanical Engineering. He works as a Health Coach at Evolve Healthcare and co-founded the health education company Sapien. He also works to spread the awareness of regenerative agriculture and increase access to well-raised animal products through his company Nose to Tail. In this episode, Brian opens the show by explaining the inspiration behind his diet and lifestyle changes. Then, he dives into his documentary Food Lies and the new science changing everything we need to know about nutrition. Later, Brian explains why cows aren’t causing a climate crisis and how the facts don’t show that red meat causes cancer. Tune in as we talk about the importance of protein, why processed foods companies are behind the vegan agenda, and regenerative agriculture.

[00:45] Why Brian Decided To Change His Diet and Lifestyle At age 30, Brian lost both of his parents to terrible health conditions. His parents would follow the food pyramid but ended up with Alzheimer’s and cancer. After losing his parents, Brian completely changed his diet and lifestyle. Eventually, Brian’s allergies went away, his energy improved, and he lost his dad bod. After eating more animal products and less processed foods, Brian got healthy. We need to redefine what aging should look like and feel like. [10:20] Food Lies: The Ultimate Answer To All The Propaganda Films Check out Food Lies: https://www.foodlies.org/ Brian is working on making the ultimate answer to all propaganda films. The whole goal is to get Food Lies on Netflix. Food Lies is all about the sordid history of our dietary guidelines, what we should be eating, and how to do it sustainably. [15:20] Are Cows Really Causing The Climate Crisis? There's always been methane coming from ruminant animals. Methane from animals is part of the natural system. There’s a huge diversion going on. 95% of emission problems are from other industries. The fossil fuel industry extracts carbon from deep into the ground. Big industry is controlling the narrative around methane and cows. [23:30] All Animals Require Protein: What Happens When You’re Not Getting Enough Building Blocks All animals acquire food to get a certain amount of protein. If animals don’t have enough protein in their food, they have to eat more food to get enough protein. The protein of the population has dropped dramatically. When you drop protein, you have to eat more calories as a result. Protein isn’t the answer for everything; you also have to consider nutrient density. [31:30] How Much Protein Should You Be Eating Every Single Day? Eat a gram per pound of body weight or lean body mass. There isn’t a downside to eating this much protein. If you have a severe kidney problem, there’s a chance you’ll have issues with too much protein. You’ll have a problem if you’re eating high protein and highly processed foods. If your ideal weight is 130 pounds, consume 130 grams of protein. [37:10] Does Eating Red Meat Cause Cancer? No, The Problem Is Processed Foods Why is there a worldwide agenda against meat? Epidemiology can't show causation; it can only show correlation. A famous study says that red meat causes cancer. However, it has a lot more to do with eating processed foods with processed meats. If you’re eating a hot dog, you’re eating a bun. If you’re eating a steak, you’re probably not eating a bun. [40:45] Processed Food Companies Are Behind The Vegan Agenda A massive conglomeration of worldwide processed food companies is pushing the vegan agenda. The countries that eat little meat have 30-40% child malnutrition and stunted growth. There’s barely any profit margin in milk, eggs, fish, and fresh foods. That’s why the vegan agenda is so popular because big companies can make huge profit margins on their products. AND MUCH MORE!

Dr Anthony Jay | How Artificial Estrogens Are Making You Fat, Sick, and Infertile, Plus The Benefits of Vitamin D & Cholesterol KKP: 429
Today, I am blessed to have here with me the President and CEO of AJ Consulting Company, Dr. Anthony Jay. Dr. Jay earned a B.A. with a double major in Biology and Theology from Ave Maria University in Naples, Florida, where he researched HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) inhibitors. This is a repeat episode which originally aired on April 19th 2021. After college, he continued to work with virus (lentivirus) in the context of Alzheimer's disease for the U.S. Department of Veteran's Affairs. Next, Dr. Jay earned his Ph.D. in Biochemistry from Boston University School of Medicine, researching fats, hormones, and cholesterol. Dr. Jay has also worked for 3 years as a scientific researcher at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota, researching stem cells, epigenetics, and infrared light. Currently, in addition to leading AJCCo, Dr. Jay is a bestselling author of Estrogeneration. Did you know that the water from our faucet is full of birth control? In this episode, Dr. Jay reveals how he found his passion for artificial estrogens. Then, we jump into the importance of getting sunshine every single day. Not only are there loads of mental health benefits, but the UV will help break up toxins under your skin. Then, Dr. Jay talks about cholesterol and all-cause mortality, optimal vitamin D levels, and sunscreen problems. We end the conversation jumping into all things Covid, including face masks and vaccines.

Text me +1 (786) 364-5002 [00:20] About Dr. Jay + His Interest In Artificial Estrogens Jay got interested in artificial estrogens way back in college. In college, they told him the water from the faucet was full of birth control. It opened up an entire can of worms. Jay started to recognize fake estrogen chemicals all over the place. So, he compiled a top ten list of these daily exposures and wrote the book You can get the book here: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01MRAFYZL/benazadi-20 [03:10] The Benefits of Getting Sunshine Every Single Day There are a lot of interesting genetic risks that are dependent on sunshine and basically fixed by getting out in the sun. Sunshine will help increase your body’s metabolism. The sun will also help break down toxin removal. Laser removal of tattoos is literally zapping heavy metals. Those heavy metals are in big enough chunks that your immune system cannot clear them. Sunshine will zap the large chunks of heavy metals. Even if you don’t have tattoos, the UV will help you break up toxins from under your skin. Jay’s favorite benefit is that it increases your body’s natural production of melanotan. Plus, sunshine will help combat seasonal affective disorder (SAD). Watch the video on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Y-1fsJbd0A [12:25] An Intriguing Study! Total Cholesterol And All-Cause Mortality There’s a study called: Total cholesterol and all-cause mortality by sex and age: a prospective cohort study among 12.8 million adults. You can check it out here: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-018-38461-y The research is very clear about optimal levels for total cholesterol. When you get above 200 on your cholesterol, doctors will tell you that you need statins as soon as possible. Jay takes the prescriptions and then throws them out. However, if your blood sugar's above 85, fasted, that's a threefold higher risk of heart disease. Anything above 85 is not considered optimal. Americans will come in at 95, and a cardiologist will ignore that. [16:30] The Optimal Ranges For Your Vitamin D Levels 30 – 70 or 30 – 100 are optimal ranges. The average American is at 30. As soon as you get below 50, you see associations with health issues. For instance, people will suffer from gut issues, chronic fatigue, and depression with those levels. If you are at 200, there is some risk of calcifying your arteries. Keep it between 50 and 100 for optimization. Getting in the sun will bump your levels up to 70 or 80. [19:50] The Issues With Sunscreen - How Safe Is Sunscreen? The main ingredient is oxybenzone. It’s a manmade chemical, and it acts like estrogen in your body. You do not want to rub it on your skin. After one application of sunscreen, oxybenzone levels were above the government's safety levels even one week later. The government limits are absurd, anyway! Estrogen chemicals don’t kill the cells because they act like estrogen. It will do a lot of weird things to the cell instead. Zinc is an excellent alternative for sunscreen.

[05:45] How to increase your ketone levels [13:20] What to do if you aren’t losing weight on a ketogenic diet [17:50] Ways to gain weight when following a ketogenic lifestyle [24:25] Don’t forget about bile: how to support the liver [36:50] Does eating zero-calorie foods mess up fasting? Should you try keto if you don’t want to lose weight? How to increase your ketone levels What to do if you aren’t losing weight on a ketogenic diet Ways to gain weight when following a ketogenic lifestyle Don’t forget about bile: how to support the liver Does eating zero-calorie foods mess up fasting? Should I Do Keto If I Don’t Want To Lose Weight? Yes, you should do keto even if you don’t want to lose weight. Keto is excellent for your brain and cognitive performance; keto helps you be productive and resilient. In fact, ketones can cross the blood-brain barrier and give you an alternative fuel source. If you're never making ketones, you deprive your cells of 50% of your body’s fuel source. In addition, keto is great for longevity, anti-aging, and lowering inflammation in the body. It’s a great tool whether you want to lose weight or not. Many people come to keto primarily to lose weight. However, they stick with keto because they love the other health benefits they see from the lifestyle. I Can’t Get My Ketones Above .5, What Am I Doing Wrong? First, you’re not doing anything wrong. Maybe you can change your approach. When it comes to ketones, higher doesn’t necessarily mean better. You don’t want high glucose, so why would you want high ketones? .5 is great! That means you are burning fat instead of sugar - congratulations! However, if you want to raise your ketones, fasting is a great way to get those numbers up. Also, MCT oil has been proven to raise ketone production. Add MCT oil to your coffee or tea. Lastly, about 30% of MCT is in goat and sheep dairy. Overall, it’s important to remember that you should pay attention to how you’re feeling rather than what your ketone levels are. What Should I Do If I’m In Ketosis, But I’m Not Losing Weight? Weight loss is a worthy goal; you should want to get healthy by reaching your goal weight. However, the human body doesn’t always prioritize weight loss. In fact, losing weight is against our basic survival instinct. The body needs to get healthy and optimize its hormones first; as a result of these two things, the weight will come off. If you’re struggling with weight loss, you should put your scale away. Now it’s time to focus on the non-scale victories. Are your energy levels improving? How is your skin complexion? Are your clothes fitting better? Start taking pictures! The number on the scale is a liar because the scale will fluctuate for so many reasons. All in all, pay attention to how you’re feeling and looking rather than the number on the scale. Can You Gain Weight By Doing The Ketogenic Diet? Yes, you can gain weight by doing the ketogenic diet. If you prioritize your protein on a keto approach and have a caloric surplus, most likely, you will gain weight. Increasing your calories is going to help put you in a growth place. Some ketogenic bodybuilders put on tons of muscles. You have to be strategic regarding proteins, calories, weightlifting, and quality sleep. If you want to gain weight, you can definitely make it happen on a ketogenic diet. While on the other hand, will you gain weight if that’s not your goal? Yes, it can happen. If you’re overeating fat, then you can gain weight. Remember, your body can get fat from dietary fat or the fat on your body. How Can We Support The Liver? Symptoms are such a blessing and a gift from the body. A symptom means something is going on that we need to explore. Symptoms are trying to tell you something and may be telling you to support the liver. The liver produces bile. Bile is needed for detoxification and breaking down fats. When you’re increasing your healthy fat
Alan Cash | Is Oxaloacetate The Best Supplement For Extending Lifespan? Tips For PMS Symptoms & More! KKP: 427
Today, I am blessed to have here with me Alan Cash. He serves as founder and chief science officer at Terra Biological. Researching into the molecular and genomic mechanisms of aging and the effects of calorie restriction on aging, Mr. Cash developed unique molecular methods and compounds to mimic calorie restriction and extend lifespan in laboratory animals. Mr. Cash has an MS in physics from the University of Oklahoma. As an entrepreneur, Mr. Cash has gained recognition and awards from the White House, INC 500 business, Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year, Deloitte and Touche Technology Fast 50, and Top 100 Hotfirm. In this episode, Alan talks about his passion for researching the mechanisms behind aging. During a study, Alan found that oxaloacetate extends the lifespan of worms. He speaks about the other clinical research Alan has done around oxaloacetate and what are the most surprising benefits of this compound. Alan dives into reversing some of the symptoms of premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD), premenstrual syndrome (PMS), and chronic fatigue syndrome. Tune in as we chat about how Alan is researching the effects of oxaloacetate on women with breast cancer. 💊 Purchase Benagene oxaloacetate here: https://bit.ly/3HJLZ44 💊 Purchase Jubilance PMS support here: https://bit.ly/39JJuST Download my free keto grocery shopping list: http://www.ketokampblueprint.com Get Keto Flex on Audible for Free (New Customers Only): https://adbl.co/36d6A24 Get Keto Flex on Audible here for current customers: https://adbl.co/3699lBm / / E P I S O D E S P ON S O R S Paleo Valley beef sticks, apple cider vinegar complex, organ meat complex & more.

[00:45] How Alan Found Out That Oxaloacetate Extends The Lifespan of Worms Alan had a condition that was essentially caused by aging; his problem was fixed through brain surgery. As a physicist, Alan began to wonder why people age. He devised an idea to change the NAD to NADH ratio using oxaloacetate. So, Alan fed worms oxaloacetate to see if they would live longer. It worked! It’s not often you find a way to extend the lifespan of a species. [19:20] Is There Any Concern With Ascorbic Acid and Throwing Off The Copper To Iron Ratio? One hundred fifty milligrams of ascorbic acid is not enough to do anything unless you are very, very sensitive to vitamin C. If you drink a glass of orange juice and feel terrible, you’re probably sensitive to vitamin C. It’s very rare to be sensitive to vitamin C. If you are sensitive to vitamin C, you should not take benaGene. [21:40] The Reason You Should Take Oxaloacetate Every Single Day The best use of oxaloacetate is to use it every day. Oxaloacetate will help with fasting glucose levels and mood issues. When you take oxaloacetate regularly, you can reduce the amount of blood glucose swing throughout the day by 55%. About 10% of the total genes out there change when you calorie restrict. Typically, you will see genomic responses in 30 to 45 days by taking oxaloacetate. [30:05] How Oxaloacetate Can Help With PMS and PMDD Symptoms In the past, we thought that PMS was due to hormonal issues because it happened every month. Well, hormones do help with the timing of things. However, the actual problems seem to be linked to the brain. Women with emotional issues need more glucose in their cerebellum. If you give them glucose, they will feel better. This is why women are reaching for chocolate and carbohydrates. Oxaloacetate converts fatty acids that circulate through your system into glucose. That way, you can make glucose at these times when you need it! During a trial, Alan saw over a 50% reduction in depression and anxiety and a 48% reduction in suicidal ideation by taking oxaloacetate. [38:30] The Most Surprising Benefits Alan Has Seen From Oxaloacetate Alan was surprised to find that oxaloacetate extends the lifespan of worms. As far as inflammation, Alan did some cellular work with oxaloacetate. Oxaloacetate can reduce a significant inflammation pathway in your body. Alan’s customers have reported that oxaloacetate helped them with chronic fatigue syndrome. Within six weeks, the average reduction in fatigue was 25 to 30%. That’s life-changing! [51:30] Could Oxaloacetate Help People With Breast Cancer? In cancer cells, when we increase the levels of oxaloacetate, it reverses the Warburg Effect. The Warburg Effect is where solid cancers take in much more glucose into their cells. They burn that glucose, not in the mitochondria but fermented in the cell’s cytosol. The Warburg Effect makes tumors grow faster but makes them more lethal. Alan is in the middle of a clinical trial on patients with breast cancer a
Dr Sylvia Tara | The Secret Life of Fat: The REAL Cause of Weight Gain & What You Can Do About It! KKP: 426
Today, I am blessed to have here with me Dr. Sylvia Tara. She holds a Ph.D. in biochemistry from The University of California, San Diego, and an MBA from the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania. This episode originally aired on March 1st 2021. She was a healthcare management consultant with McKinsey & Company and has worked for the world's largest biotechnology companies. After an extended battle with fat, Dr. Tara became fascinated with its resiliency and embarked on a mission to better understand it. This book culminated in years of research and interviews with physicians, patients, and leading scientists. The Secret Life of Fat will forever change how you think about this misunderstood organ. Dr. Sylvia Tara is the author of the book, The Secret Life of Fat. This new book brings together historical perspective and cutting-edge research to reveal fat's true identity: an organ critical to our health. In this episode, Dr. Sylvia Tara reveals the inspiration behind her fat research. We usually think fat is simply storing calories. What most people don't know is that fat serves many purposes. Also, there are different types of fats. We dive into everything you need to know about fat, including what's vital about leptin and adiponectin. Later, we discuss the difference between men and women when it comes to fat loss. Plus, we talk about which types of exercises will be critical on your health journey.

[00:30] About Dr. Sylvia Tara Sylvia gains weight really easily. Her whole life, she watches people eat whatever they feel like, drink whatever they want, and not gain any weight. So, Dr. Sylvia decided to understand fat once and for all. She went on a big expedition to really understand fat. She wanted to know why she would gain fat easier than other people. The Secret Life of Fat is based on all this research! We think of fat as storage for calories; however, it’s so much more than that. [02:25] What Is Fat? Fat is a complex endocrine organ that has multiple functions: Storing calories. Producing leptin – which has a great effect on our brains, our bones, and multiple organs. Creating adiponectin – which has a lot of impact on where our fat is stored. [03:25] What You Need to Know About Leptin Our fat produces this hormone called leptin. It's the biggest producer of leptin in the body, and fat releases it into the bloodstream. Once leptin goes to the bloodstream, it goes to your brain; it'll tell your brain that you’re overall satisfied. Basically, the brain will know that you are good, there's enough nutrition in the world, and you are okay. Leptin will also communicate with your muscles. It tells your muscles that it's okay to expend energy because you have enough nutrition. When we start to lose fat and begin to lose weight, say 10% or more, we reduce the amount of leptin we have. So, people who've lost 10% or more of their body weight respond enormously to food. Overall, once you've lost weight, you have to eat less than someone who's at that weight normally. It is why diets don’t work! [07:15] The Role of Adiponectin Adiponectin is more or less telling fat where to go. When we have dietary fat, adiponectin will guide the fat in our bloodstream to the right parts of our body. So there's different kinds of fat, there's white fat. It's right under the skin, it's in your thighs, buttocks, arms, and it's actually the safest places to deposit fat. If you're going to have some fat, those are the places to put it. There's also visceral fat; it sits underneath the stomach wall. It is the more dangerous fat that's nestled against the internal pancreas organ. There's brown fat – it burns calories instead of storing calories. Plus, there is beige fat – it that can turn brown when we exercise. Overall, adiponectin will help guide the fat you eat and put it into the right place. [09:20] How Exercise Can Help Adiponectin It’s around 20 hours of jogging a week to get adequate levels of adiponectin. That is when your body will start to shift around where your fat is. High-intensity interval training will also help raise your levels of adiponectin. You have to exercise a lot before it starts to affect you. It's best to work with your diet and do some exercise. Don't rely on exercise alone! [11:10] How To Get More Brown Fat Brown fat is actually used to create heat. We have brown fat around our heart; we have it around the clavicle areas and our spines. Having brown fat around those important areas is critical. These areas need to be heated even when we don't have exposure to cold. Beige fat, which was discovered last decade, is the fat that can turn brown through exercise. The more you exercise, the more you can increase your levels of brown fat. Exposure to cold will also increase your
Rich Smith | Why Cholesterol Is Important, The Hormonal Role of Insulin, Glucagon, Leptin, & More! KKP: 425
Today, I am blessed to have here with me Richard Smith. Richard began his keto journey for weight loss hoping to cure severe anxiety, depression, chronic fatigue, and daily debilitating migraines. During the year, Richard managed to lose over 100lbs. After reversing his illnesses and transforming his physical and emotional well-being via a ketogenic lifestyle, Richard was dedicated to helping transform the health and lives of others by providing support and supplements. In this episode, Richard discusses his past health problems, including obesity, diabetes, fatigue, depression, and anxiety. He reveals how keto transformed his well-being and life. Then, Richard dives into why cholesterol isn’t the enemy and how you can determine if your cholesterol profile is actually damaged or not. Richard digs deep into insulin and leptin and how to optimize these hormones. Tune in as we chat about the problem with insulin resistance and a simple test to tell if you are insulin resistant.

[00:40] Richard Speaks About His Health Problems and How Keto Transformed His Life Richard was clinically obese, diabetic, chronically tired, depressed, anxious, and experienced debilitating migraines that would make him blind. The worst part of Richard’s health was his anxiety; he wouldn’t be able to leave his house, car, or office. Richard never felt good enough to be around other people. Eventually, Richard realized that bread made his belly swell. So, he gave it up. Within 30 days of ditching bread, Richard lost 28 pounds. Starting keto has completely changed Richard’s life; luckily, every factor of his life has improved. [26:20] Cholesterol Isn’t The Enemy; In Fact, Cholesterol is Essential For Health Cholesterol is essential for life. It's imperative for cell formation, cell communication, nutrient absorption, nutrient transportation, and hormone production. The brain and the myelin sheath are made of cholesterol. Lacking cholesterol would be detrimental to your health. There is a massive miscommunication when it comes to cholesterol. LDL is proactive; it heals the body and repairs it. The two main contributing factors to heart disease are grains and seed oils. Seed oils do not help lower cholesterol. Reducing carbohydrates and seed oils is the best way to have healthy LDL. [35:00] Is Your Cholesterol Profile Damaged? Richard Explains Where Your Markers Should Be There’s a simple way to see whether your cholesterol profile is damaged. Triglycerides are one of the most significant factors; aim for less than 0.5%. HDL should be greater than 1.5. The triglyceride to HDL ratio should be below one. You’re in good shape if your cholesterol profile is around these markers. Remember, cholesterol is essential for life; every cell in the body is made of cholesterol. [39:45] You Can’t Store Fat Without Insulin From Carbohydrates, Sugars, and Seed Oils We can’t store fat without insulin. Insulin is secreted by the pancreas when we consume carbohydrates. Many people will eat carbs before going to the gym to have the energy to burn fat. However, when insulin is elevated, it tells the body to store fat. Eating carbs will make it almost impossible for us to burn fat for fuel. Insulin puts a biological lock on our fat stores and prevents them from leaving. Carbohydrates and sugars will increase insulin. Seed oils will also impact insulin; they cause insulin resistance. [42:40] The Foods You Eat Could Be Blocking Your Ability To Feel Full Leptin is a satiety hormone. It tells us that we have eaten and that we are full. Seed oils will block leptin. If you aren’t feeling full, you will consume more food. Grains are high in lectins; they cause five times more fat storage than insulin. Lectins in grains will also block leptin. [49:55] Richard Reveals A Simple Test To Tell If You’re Insulin Resistant As a world, we are insulin resistant. In fact, 95% of people are insulin resistant. Diabetes will start with food choices that began ten to fifteen years prior. There’s a simple way to test if you suffer from insulin resistance. You have insulin resistance if you have an overhang over your pants, belt, or skirt. Restrict carbohydrates, and you will see a reduction in insulin levels. You don’t need a myriad of medications to solve insulin resistance. AND MUCH MORE! Resources from thi

Leigh Erin Connealy, MD | The Best Strategies For Cancer Prevention, Recommended Blood Markers, Why Cancer Loves Sugar & More! KKP: 423
Today, I am blessed to have here with me, a prominent leader in the field of Integrative Medicine, Dr. Erin Connealy. She utilizes the best of all sciences, including conventional, homeopathic, eastern medicine and modern medicine. She is the Medical Director of Cancer Center for Healing and Center for New Medicine. The combined 30,000 S.F. clinics have become the largest integrative medical clinic in North America, and have been visited by over patients 47,000 patients. This is a repeat episode that was originally released in September 2021. The Center for New Medicine focuses on a precise and personalized approach to patient care that includes prevention, early detection of cancer, internal medicine, auto-immune disease, natural hormone replacement, chronic issues, and even aesthetics. Dr. Connealy's clinics focus on treating “the patient with the disease and not the disease of the patient, while determining the origin of the illness." Dr. Connealy created the Cancer Center for Healing as a result of the epidemic of cancer. Patients receive scientifically based treatments and receive integrative protocols. She utilizes unique combination of Bio Energetic testing, RGCC testing, and comprehensive blood panels to create a personalized treatment plan for early to late stage cancer patients. Her clinic offers a variety of advance cancer treatments to maximize outcomes and minimize side effects. Dr. Connealy created the Perfectly Healthy brand of products that are manufactured by state-of-the-art GMP FDA approved facilities. All Perfectly Healthy products support human optimization for each patient. Perfectly Healthy products are also carried in the shop inside the Center for New Medicine, which curates hand-picked products that promote a healthy lifestyle. In this episode, Dr. Connealy dives into her story of suffering from prenatal DES exposure. This exposure has caused massive amounts of collateral damage to Dr. Connealy. After realizing that conventional medicine wasn't going to be enough for herself and her patients, Dr. Connealy is working on educating the world on how to take care of themselves through food and other lifestyle changes. Dr. Connealy exposes the truth about cancer, how to determine if you're at risk for cancer, and what you can do to start preventing cancer today. Stay tuned as we speak about the problems with EMF exposure and the importance of fasting. *Dr. Connealy firmly believes that there is no 1 cause of cancer. It is the overwhelming presence of toxins, unresolved emotional trauma, EMFs, etc., that breakdown the body’s ability to fight cancer and eventually leads to the growth of a tumor and a cancer diagnosis.* Get Keto Flex on Audible for Free (New Customers Only): https://adbl.co/36d6A24 Get Keto Flex on Audible here for current customers: https://adbl.co/3699lBm / / E P I S O D E S P ON S O R S PureForm Omega Plant Based Oils (Best Alternative to Fish Oil): http://www.purelifescience.com Use ben4 for $4.00 off.

However, she realized that prescriptions would treat her patients and not fix them. Because of the collateral damage from DES, Dr. Connealy has always been focusing on her health. She has had a lot of medical interventions as a result of DES. Doctors are not teaching and informing patients that what you eat matters. The single determinant of health is what is on your fork. “We need to start educating the world on how to take care of themselves.” -Dr. Connealy [10:00] The Truth About Cancer For the last five years, Dr. Connealy has asked every patient about the first thing they have done since being diagnosed with cancer. 100% of patients said they changed their eating habits. Sugar and food are addictions. Unfortunately, people don’t want to be strict with their eating program. Everyone grows up with cereal, so people tend to continue to do what we have always done. “The foundation of progress is discipline.” -Dr. Connealy The only way people make is a change is through pain. People know they are eating poorly, but they think that they can get away with it. “We are living in a nation of illness today.” -Dr. Connealy [17:05] How Long A Cancer Diagnosis Will Take Cancer starts with just one erroneous cell. The cell will begin to replicate itself. When the cancer cell becomes a tumor, that cell is ten years old. That means you had nine years of opportunity to check to see if you have cancer. With the technology that we have today, we know with a high accuracy rate if people have cancer. It is so much easier to prevent the illness from occurring. It does not necessarily take a symptom to know that you have cancer. Some people feel great and still get cancer. If you have a symptom, get checked by a conventionally trained doctor who knows modern medicine. [22:55] The Survival Rate For Chemotherapy The survival rate for chemotherapy is two
Dr David Harper | Ketogenic Nutrition as a Therapeutic Intervention for Cancer, & How to Improve HDL Cholesterol KKP: 422
Today, I am blessed to have here with me Dr. David Harper. As a health educator and cancer researcher, Dr. David G. Harper has studied the impact of diet on human health for many years. The culmination of that extensive work is the BioDiet, a ketogenic food regimen that he and his wife began in 2012. The significant weight loss and health improvements they experienced led Dr. Harper to counsel hundreds of people on the BioDiet, with similarly consistent and impressive results. Dr. Harper is an associate professor of kinesiology at the University of the Fraser Valley and a visiting scientist at the BC Cancer Research Center, Terry Fox Laboratory. He holds a Ph.D. from the University of British Columbia and completed a post-doctoral fellowship in comparative physiology at the University of Cambridge. He is on the scientific advisory board of the Canadian Clinicians for Therapeutic Nutrition and is a member of the Institute for Personalized Therapeutic Nutrition. In this episode, Dr. Harper discusses fixing your diet before putting drugs in your body. The best cure for cancer is through prevention; Dr. Harper reveals how diet can be the key to avoiding chronic diseases and cancer. Dr. Harper dives deep into the connection between insulin resistance, obesity, and inflammation. Plus, he chats about how ketosis is a great way to lower inflammation and reverse insulin resistance. Tune in as Dr. Harper talks about studying the effects of a ketogenic diet on women with breast cancer. 💻 Register For My Free Keto Webinar - 4 Secrets to Mastering Keto: http://www.ketosismasterclass.com Get Keto Flex on Audible for Free (New Customers Only): https://adbl.co/36d6A24 Get Keto Flex on Audible here for current customers: https://adbl.co/3699lBm / / E P I S O D E S P ON S O R S Paleo Valley beef sticks, apple cider vinegar complex, organ meat complex & more.

[01:40] You Should Try Fixing Your Diet Before Putting Drugs In Your Body We can improve people’s health significantly through diet. Diet will decrease your risk of chronic disease by about 70%. If you get the food right, many health symptoms will correct themselves. Everyone feels better when they have adopted a ketogenic diet. [07:10] Dr. Hopper Reveals The Best Cure For Cancer People often ask Dr. Hopper what the best treatment for cancer is. The best cancer treatment is not to get it in the first place. When you age, you don’t need to get heavy and sick. Most likely, you get heavy and sick because of your diet. You can have diabetes for a decade, which will be wholly reversed through a ketogenic diet. Even atherosclerosis is reversible through diet. [10:20] How Keto Tackles Obesity, Insulin Resistance, and Inflammation Counting calories has been pretty much disproven. It turns out this model just doesn’t work. Obesity is a result of chronic exposure to a high carbohydrate diet. Carbohydrates elevate your blood sugar dramatically. Also, obesity makes insulin resistance worse and inflammation worse. It’s a vicious cycle! Inflammation is the root cause of most cardiovascular diseases. Sugar and high carbohydrate diets are causing inflammation. Overall, you can make your mitochondria healthier through diet and exercise. [19:05] How Does Ketosis Lower Inflammation In The Body? Ketones are produced when you metabolize fats. When you switch to fat metabolism, it triggers more antioxidant reactions within the cell. Ketones will reduce the amount of fat within the cells. High-sensitivity C-reactive Protein (hs-CRP) is the best measure of your chronic inflammation. You want that number to be low. Exercise is one of the best ways to stimulate mitophagy. Mitophagy helps remove aged and damaged mitochondria. [32:45] How Do You Produce Glucose In Your Body Without Eating Sugar? You need glucose in your blood. If you don’t eat carbohydrates, your liver has a mechanism called gluconeogenesis. Gluconeogenesis will help your liver cells create glucose through non-sugar sources. You need about a teaspoon of sugar in your blood at any time. Gluconeogenesis will also burn an extra 250 calories a day through that process. [43:00] Studying The Ketogenic Diet on Women With Metastatic Breast Cancer Dr. Hopper did a study on women with metastatic breast cancer. He put them on a ketogenic diet. However, women have different types of breast cancers, and they are taking various types of medications. Dr. Hopper provides all the food for them; he knows exactly what they are eating. Anecdotally speaking, he has seen significant improvements. The ketogenic diet had the same effect on these women as on an average healthy population. A very positive therapeutic benefit

[00:45] How Allison Pelot Got Involved In The Health and Fitness Space Allison did gymnastics her whole life and even went to college on a gymnastics scholarship. Eventually, Allison graduated with an exercise science degree. When Allison was an athlete, she would eat lots of carbs and low fat meals. Down the road, Allison began to understand nutrition much better. After having kids, Allison started personal training as an independent contractor. Over the years, Allison has helped people navigate the physical and the energetic aspects of their lives. [11:05] You Need To Listen To Your Body and Create Space For Healing There is a vicious cycle of needing to fix things all of the time. We are taught things like “no pain, no gain" in the fitness industry.” However, Allison says that we need to listen to our bodies and create space with ourselves. Have more patience with yourself because the body has a unique rhythm. Tap into your body’s intelligence to allow healing to take place. [18:30] Reacting vs. Responding: The Power of Choice Is In Your Hands There are going to be times when you react to things. Reacting to everything in life means you are living in survival mode. When we can take responsibility for ourselves, it will create less anxiety. We all have the power to choose how we respond at the moment. Have intention behind your choices and responses. If you don’t have a choice, then you will never be able to create the life that you want. [23:00] Clean Up Your Stinking Thinking Through Meditation and Positivity Your thinking has been passed down from generation to generation; it’s time to break the chain! One way to break your thinking patterns is by meditating in the morning. Allison recommends checking out Abraham-Hicks: https://www.abraham-hicks.com. If you find yourself thinking negatively, you need to figure out how to get out of those thinking patterns. Train your mind to create focus on what you would like to improve on. [31:00] The Importance of A Morning Routine and Prioritizing Yourself Your mornings should be sacred. Wake up earlier and prioritize time for yourself in the morning. If you have dreams, take a moment and write them down. The morning is a great time to tap into the energetic part of yourself. Gratitude journals work so well because they will change your focus. Be with yourself and do what your soul calls you to do in the morning. [37:15] The Inspiration Behind Finally Thriving: Your Guide to Empowered Wellness Allison felt like she was holding on to too much information, and she needed to share it with people. During the pandemic, Allison saw many things in the media about health that just didn’t make sense. So, Allison wrote a book to bring simple health and wellness tips to help people find more focus and thrive. Get Allison’s book!

Amanda Nighbert | Why This Registered Dietitian Loves Intermittent Fasting For Metabolic Flexibility KKP:420
Today, I am blessed to have here with me Amanda Nighbert. She is a registered dietitian specializing in weight loss nutrition, a fitness enthusiast, and a working mom of two. This is a repeat episode from September 2021. Amanda is passionate about motivating, supporting, and educating people to meet their wellness goals. She has worked in weight loss for the past 19 years, helping thousands of people reach their wellness goals. Amanda is so excited to have the opportunity to work with even more people via her online programs. She is an avid reader and feels that the science behind weight loss, diet, and nutrition is constantly changing. This rapid change can create confusion and frustration with the average person trying to be successful at weight loss. Amanda's goal is to bring the latest, cutting-edge strategies and techniques to her clients in the most concise and educational manner. Amanda is a strong believer that dieting is temporary, something you start and stop. Therefore it is more important to focus on lifestyle changes to see long-term weight loss success truly. Amanda's goal is to teach her clients simple yet effective lifestyle changes they can make and easily sustain to see lasting results. Success does not have to be about perfection but rather more consistency. She believes in implementing strategies that work in the real world, with real people who lead real, hectic, and often crazy lives. First, Amanda speaks about why eating a fat-free diet doesn't work and how following that trend almost landed her on statins. Then, Amanda dives into the number one reason why dieters will always fail. We also talk about why intermittent fasting is excellent for weight loss. Eating before bedtime can be ruining your progress; so, Amanda gives tips on how to curb your late-night eating habits. Tune in as we chat about the importance of metabolic flexibility and why you're not losing weight from the advice of your registered dietician.

[00:30] Low-Fat Diets: Why Eating A Fat-Free Diet Doesn’t Work As a registered dietitian, Amanda was living and breathing the “heart-healthy diet.” Amanda thought she was doing everything right. She ate low-fat, whole grains, and no eggs. Her weight was healthy. Yet, her cholesterol was over 300. The doctor prescribed Amanda statins at the age of 32. Instead, Amanda wanted to try and fix the problem on her own. So Amanda read the book The Great Cholesterol Myth: Why Lowering Your Cholesterol Won't Prevent Heart Disease-and the Statin-Free Plan That Will. You can find a copy here: https://www.amazon.com/Great-Cholesterol-Myth-Disease-Statin-Free/dp/1592335217/benazadi-20 She realized that reducing inflammation would improve her numbers. After six months, she got her numbers under 200. [07:35] The Number One Reason Why Dieters Fail The number one reason why people fail is the all-or-nothing mindset. We feel like we have to be perfect to make progress. How to break your all-or-nothing mindset: Practice progress over perfection. Learn the power of resetting immediately. Always do something. When someone can’t do it all, then they choose to do nothing. Instead of trying to do it all, pick one thing to focus on for the week to come. [14:00] Intermittent Fasting and Why Amanda Loves It For Weight Loss Breakfast is not actually the most important meal of the day. It took Amanda ten years of being a dietitian to realize that. There are actual physiological processes in the body that help us thrive in a fasted state. It’s effortless to be an intuitive eater. Time-restricted eating is not a diet. It’s not about what you eat. Instead, it’s all about when you eat. Amanda loves intermittent fasting because it’s flexible. You don’t have to fast every single day. Lastly, fasting is free, and it doesn’t cost you any money! [18:00] Fasting Before Bed: Tips To Stop Your Late Night Eating Habits Drink herbal tea in the evening. Non-caloric beverages are also okay to drink before bed. You can also adjust your eating window. If you prefer to eat more in the evening, then eat less in the morning. Start with a 12 hour fast, then ease your way into a 16 hour fast. [20:20] We Eat Way Too Much! Eat Until You’re Full and Lose Weight For some reason, people want to graze all day long. The reason you are eating all day long is that you’re not eating to fullness. You can eat 700 calories during one meal and still lose weight. People are scared of calories, fats, and carbs. At mealtimes, we are significantly undereating, which leads to more snacking. Sadly, people are eating every hour and a half. Fi
Dr Yoshi Rahm | Get More Mitochondria With Methylene Blue, Incredible Benefits of Methylene Blue KKP: 419
Today, I am blessed to have here with me Dr. Yoshi Rahm. He is a board-certified osteopathic family physician with a separate board certification in Integrative and Holistic Medicine. Dr. Yoshi grew up in a small town in Northern California. His simple upbringing, which included living without electricity, TV, or phone, gave him an early appreciation for healthy living. He attended U.C. San Diego, where he majored in Animal Physiology and Neuroscience and minored in Human Development. He ran Track and Cross-Country for UCSD before co-founding a running club. After graduating, Dr. Yoshi interned at a neuroscience laboratory in Germany and traveled throughout Europe before working at a nonprofit Biotech laboratory in San Diego. Dr. Yoshi attended Western University of Health Sciences, College of Osteopathic Medicine. As a medical student, he participated in many volunteer activities, including medical missions to Mexico and Ecuador. After medical school, he completed his Internship and Residency in Family Medicine at Glendale Adventist Medical Center. During his time there, he was elected Chief Resident. Upon graduation, he received the two highest distinctions: “Resident Teacher Award” as presented by the faculty and “Resident of the Year Award” as recognized by the staff. Dr. Yoshi then became an Attending Physician teaching at the same residency program. In this episode, Dr. Yoshi speaks about the inspiration behind his career in brain health. He explains why disease and life expectancy stats are getting worse instead of better in the United States. Later, Dr. Yoshi dives into everything methylene blue: the history, the benefits, and how it works to improve your health.

[00:55] Dr. Yoshi Speaks About The Inspiration Behind His Career In Brain Health Dr. Yoshi’s younger brother had spinal meningitis and grew up with seizures. He passed away from a seizure when he was twenty-five. So, Dr. Yoshi grew interested in brain health and how we can help the neurological system. Dr. Yoshi grew up on 40 acres in the middle of nowhere with no TV, electricity, toilet, or phones. His childhood had an impact on his appreciation for healthy living. In college, Dr. Yoshi majored in Animal Physiology and Neuroscience. Now, Dr. Yoshi makes a big difference in the lives of others through exceptional integrative and modern medical care. [07:55] Why Disease Stats Are Not Getting Any Better In The United States Many diseases come down to politics, poor education, and big pharma. Where is the money being spent on advertising? It’s being spent on pharmaceutical ads. The population will split into two segments: the people who know what real health is and everyone else in the United States. The average life expectancy has actually gone down in the past year or two. [12:00] What You Need To Know About Methylene Blue Methylene blue has been around for a little over 100 years. In fact, methylene blue was one of the first true medications in the United States. The World Health Organization has methylene blue on its list of essential medications to fight parasites. Methylene blue is excellent for the mitochondria. Methylene blue's only real side effect is that your mouth will turn blue. If you require mitochondria support, methylene blue is extremely useful. [20:20] Using Methylene Blue To Benefit The Mitochondria and Help Your Body Heal “Methylene blue is food for the mitochondria.” -Dr. Yoshi You can have these mitochondria that die off, but you can also have half-functioning mitochondria. When you have a metabolic disease, the mitochondria are not working well. Methylene blue will go to the broken mitochondria, which will benefit it the most. There are many reasons for disease, but one is not having enough energy. When we can correct deficiencies, our bodies will know how to heal. [27:10] Some of the Many Benefits You Can Experience Using Methylene Blue Methylene blue will give you clarity of mind because it supplies enough energy to the brain. Also, methylene blue will help brain fog lift. Plus, methylene
Dr Donald Vega | How to Fix Your Metabolism, Reverse Diabetes & Metabolic Syndrome, & Thrive! KKP: 418
Today, I am blessed to have here with me Dr. Donald Vega. He is a registered dietitian, strength and conditioning specialist, and lifestyle mentor based in Costa Rica with more than 24 years of experience in health education. Dr. Vega, the founder of Kilosophy, was established with one vision: “reversing the metabolic disease through a fit, happy and healthy society.” They provide programs for overweight, diabetic, hypertensive, endurance and fitness patients.

He has helped over 8,000 patients to improve their lives and lose over 176,000 pounds of extra fat through their interventions in the clinics. In this episode, Dr. Donald Vega talks about getting involved in the health and nutrition space. After helping his mom reverse her type 2 diabetes, Dr. Vega found a passion for helping others on their journey to health. Dr. Vega dives into his top ten keys to health: sunlight, sleep, EMFs, thoughts, hydration, breathing, exercise, stress, thermotherapy, and nutrition.

[01:45] Why Dr. Donald Vega Got Involved In The Health and Nutrition Space Dr. Vega wanted to study medicine to be recognized. Eventually, he realized this would not be fulfilling. Dr. Vega’s mom had type 2 diabetes. After studying nutrition, Dr. Vega advised his mom to eat fewer carbs and more fats. After four months, his mom was able to reverse her type 2 diabetes. Eventually, Dr. Vega started a service where he trained people three times a week at the gym and would explain what lifestyle changes his clients should pursue. Dr. Vega doesn’t only teach his clients about diet and exercise; he teaches all about mindset, self-sabotage, and the subconscious mind. [22:20] The First Key To Health Is Getting Sunlight At The Proper Time The first key to health is sunlight. You need to expose your skin to sunlight at the proper time. Having sunshine between 10 am and 2 pm exposes your body to ultraviolet B rays. These rays will help your body produce vitamin D. Vitamin D is associated with better mood, and it will help with inflammation. Depending on your skin type, you may need between two and thirty minutes. [27:50] Another Key To Health Is Proper Sleep Hygiene We are designed to work during the day and recover during the night. Sadly, many people are working when they are supposed to be sleeping. Also, we have unlimited access to streaming services that keep us awake when we should be sleeping. When you’re not sleeping at night, you will not experience the benefits of anti-inflammatory properties during sleep. All in all, the longer you can sleep, the better your body will be able to recover. [30:15] Keys To Health: Electromagnetism and Spending Time Outside Grounding will help your body attract electrons. Put your bare feet out on the Earth. Also, remember to take off your sunglasses to benefit from having light in your eyes. Remember to spend time outside. When you’re outside in the early morning hours, you’ll be exposed to blue light, which will help you generate dopamine, serotonin, and melatonin. Melatonin is the most potent antioxidant for the mitochondria. [34:00] A Key To Health: The Power of Your Thoughts and Negative Thinking Everything that you create in the outer world, you first have to create in the inner world.

Dr Benjamin Bikman | How Ketone Molecules Communicate With Your Mitochondria to Help You Burn FAT! KKP: 417
Today we have Dr. Benjamin Bikman on the Keto Kamp Podcast. Dr. Bikman is a biomedical scientist, professor, and expert on insulin resistance. Dr. Benjamin Bikman studies diabetes and obesity, and much of what he focuses on is a seemingly obscure condition called insulin resistance. But it’s, in fact, not very obscure at all. Half of all adults in the U.S. have insulin resistance. That means you could have it too, and you don’t know it. What is insulin resistance? Why did Dr. Benjamin Bikman devote his career to studying something like this? Well, insulin resistance is essentially two things. First of all, some cells in your body aren’t responding very well to the hormone insulin. Second, you have more insulin than you did before, a condition called hyperinsulinemia. Insulin resistance is at the root of virtually every chronic disease. If we go through the chronic diseases that are killing us today, things like Type 2 Diabetes, heart disease, Alzheimer’s Disease, and certain cancers, what they all have in common is insulin resistance. To varying degrees, insulin resistance is either causing the problem or making it worse. Purchase all 7 challenge recordings! Special pricing: http://www.ketochallengerecordings.com Who Can You Trust When It Comes To Experts In The Health Space? If the person we're seeking to learn from uses derogatory language when speaking about those with whom they disagree, that is the sign of a petty person. Experts should have discussions politely and respectfully and acknowledge that there is room for disagreement. There ought to be a degree of skepticism that we apply to every authority. We should challenge that authority to some degree. There are people with Ph.D. degrees who we shouldn’t trust. Overall, we should always be on our own journey to understand what is accurate and true. A Basic Understanding of Ketosis Ketosis is the state where blood ketones are elevated, but pH is normal. Every human has some amount of ketones, even if it's below the detection level on commonly used devices. When you’re in ketosis, you will have a detectable level of ketones on a moderately used device and yet pH is not changing. Ketones have the potential to make the body more acidic. When someone's in ketosis, the amount of hydrogens coming off the ketone is relatively modest. Within the blood, there are numerous buffering mechanisms. That way, your body will defend its pH range. Overall, ketones are fat-burning products; when insulin is low, the body will burn fat at a high rate. Ketones Are Energetic Molecules; Plus, Ketones Are Signaling Molecules Ketones are energetic molecules roughly similar to the calories you get from glucose. Plus, ketones are signaling molecules. If a ketone is being used as a fuel, it will come to a cell. Then the ketone will get shuttled into the cell through an MCT (monocarboxylate transporter). When the mitochondria have a lot of pressure to be burning molecules, they get the signal that they need more mitochondria. Fatty acids can have the same effect. When a cell is burning a lot of fatty acids for fuel, it will start stimulating mitochondrial biogenesis. Why The Laws of Thermodynamics Are Misleading Regarding Weight Loss People are producing ketones and breathing out ketones, and urinating them out. Remember, ketones have a caloric value. Calories matter, but don’t worry about them. Let the calories take care of themselves. Invoking the laws of thermodynamics in nutrition and human metabolism was one of the greatest tragedies in the history of human-relevant science. It absolutely misled us and made us demonize fat and embrace carbohydrates. Hormones matter at least as much as calories because hormones tell the body's cells what to do with the available calories. The Problems With Metabolic Syndrome and Insulin Resistance Metabolic syndrome used to be called insulin resistance syndrome. Insulin resistance is the single most common problem in the US and abroad. Plus, insulin resistance is relevant to virtually every chronic disease. Covid has only made metabolic problems worse. Luckily, keto and intermittent fasting can help lower insulin. Remember, there is no insulin resistance without elevated insulin. Lowering insulin is a perfect way to help the body become more sensitive to it. If no nutrients are coming into the blood, insulin starts running out of nutrients in the blood that it can store away. So, insulin comes down when nutrients aren’t coming into the blood. Fasting is the best way to lower your insulin and reverse metabolic syndrome.

Abel James | Feast/Famine Cycling, Why Feasting Is Just As Important As Fasting KKP: 416
Today, I am blessed to have Abel James with me for the second time. He is a best-selling author, top 10 app developer, musician, radio show host, entrepreneur, and health crusader, Abel James. Abel’s work has been featured in WIRED Magazine, Paleo Living, and hundreds of media outlets in business, technology, psychology, and health. Within its first year, Abel’s Fat-Burning Man Show rose to the #1 most popular health podcast in the United States and the United Kingdom and went on to top the charts in more than seven countries across the world for the past two years. A former strategic advisor to the food and beverage industry, Abel now acts as a consumer advocate who exposes the truth behind deceptive marketing practices, misleading corporate propaganda, and powerful special interests that have accelerated the worldwide obesity epidemic and health crisis. Abel harnesses the techniques he developed for the Wild Diet to achieve extremely compelling fat loss and health results for his clients and the community. Abel’s quick-start guide, Intro to Paleo and The Musical Brain, are distinguished as #1 Amazon bestsellers in health and psychology. The Musical Brain explores evolutionary biology and how musical training and experience affect the brain. Abel and his team developed Caveman Feast, the #1 App in Food and Drink worldwide and the #6 App overall in the Apple Store in 2013. Abel has advised Fortune 500 and federal government clients, including Microsoft, State Street Global Advisors, Lockheed Martin, the Department of Education, the Department of Labor, and the Library of Congress. In this episode, Abel opens the show by speaking about social media's negative impacts on our health. Instead, we need to focus on falling back in love with the right media types. Then, Abel jumps into keto flexing and the importance of metabolic flexibility. Abel explains why he’s such a massive fan of intermittent fasting, but of course, your feasting days are just as critical. Tune in as we chat about the inspiration behind Wild Superfoods.

[06:05] The Negative Impacts of Social Media on Our Health Once you get started on social media, you will never have enough. Social media is so superficial that it’s challenging to post anything meaningful. Instead, we should be falling in love with the right kind of media. Social media is making people anxious and bummed out. [16:10] If You Want To Grow A Brand, You Need To Have A Podcast If you want to create content for the rest of your life, start a podcast. The problem with podcasting is oversaturation. Eventually, there will be more podcasts than there are listeners. A podcast is something that you own. Whereas your TikTok channel isn’t something that you own. This will be critical as we look toward the future of the decentralization of media. [19:45] How You Can Apply Keto Flexing To Your Life Many people think that going hard is better. However, it’s all about finding balance. If you want to build muscle, then insulin is not your enemy, and neither is glucose. Whether you like it or not, you’ll go back to eating carbs for one reason or another. Being able to store carbs on the shelf is really important. You need to learn how to use and store all the different macronutrients, including carbs. Remember, you can’t eat 350 grams of processed carbs a day and expect to see results. [27:00] Why Abel Loves Intermittent Fasting and How It Helps With Mental Strength Abel loves how simple fasting is. Fasting can mentally and spiritually build strength. There are many ways to approach fasting. Abel got into fasting by pushing breakfast until later in the day. We are taught that the more you eat, the more strength you build. However, Abel had to overcome that type of thinking. Eventually, Abel started eating one meal a day.

Melissa Bolona | How Bone Broth Can Improve Health, Fight Aging, and Boost Beauty KKP: 415
Today, I am blessed to have here with me Melissa Boloña. After finding herself in an unexpected wellness rut, actress and model Melissa Boloña turned to her sister for advice. The answer was simple: bone broth. Melissa noticed an immediate difference ranging from better gut health and fewer cravings to beautiful, glowing skin. The problem? She couldn’t find any local spots with tasty or convenient options. She then spent over six months testing out recipes in her own kitchen to create the flavorful and shelf-stable products you now know, Beauty & the Broth’s gut-healthy broth concentrates. Rich in naturally-occurring collagen and made with convenience in mind— just for you. Now she’s drinking two cups daily and doing all she can to spread the word about this whole-body, total-beauty elixir in a cup. Melissa spent years in front of the camera as a model and actress, gracing magazine covers and starring in more than 20 films. She’s worked with the world’s best makeup artists and sampled every top beauty product there is, yet still credits bone broth as her #1 beauty secret. After falling in love with broth and wishing there were more local spots to grab a mug of it, Melissa knew this was the business she had always wanted to create. In this episode, Melissa opens up about the struggles with her health including symptoms like constipation, IBS, brain fog, inflammation, and anxiety. Then, Melissa does a deep dive into bone broth and how it has helped her immensely in reversing all of her symptoms. Plus, bone broth has been a total game changer for her fine lines and wrinkles. Tune in as we chat all about Melissa’s bone broth products, Beauty and the Broth, and what you can look forward to in the future from her company.

[00:40] First, Melissa Opens Up About Her Struggles With Health Melissa would miss so many days of school because she did not feel well,, and they couldn’t figure out what was wrong with her. Eventually, on an x-ray, they found out Melissa was so backed up with stool. The doctors put her on laxatives and antidepressants. Now, Melissa is passionate about health and researching what exactly is going on in the gut. Melissa suffered from constipation, IBS, brain fog, inflammation, and anxiety even after high school. [09:40] Melissa Reveals Her Favorite Benefits From Drinking Bone Broth Melissa had no idea that brain fog was related to gut health. Another great benefit of bone broth is collagen. The collagen in bone broth truly helped Melissa with fine lines and wrinkles. After a workout, Melissa gets super hungry and wants to eat everything in sight. Luckily, bone broth fills us with amino acids and essential nutrients. Plus, it curbs cravings, so it makes you feel very satisfied. Also, bone broth gives you natural energy during the daytime and helps you sleep at night. [15:00] Why You Should Try The Bone Broth From Beauty and the Broth Beauty and the Broth: https://thebeautyandthebroth.com/ Her broths are shelf-stable, have no preservatives, and are in a concentrated format. Because the broths are concentrated, you get the most potent and condensed down product. All you need is eight ounces of hot water to make your broth. [20:10] How Beauty and the Broth Is The Ultimate Cooking Hack There are so many uses for beauty and broth. You can use the broths as a marinade, seasoning, or soup base. Sometimes Melissa will marinate shrimp or vegetables with bone broth. You can also pour it on leftovers to keep things from tasting dry. [21:55] How Often Should You Be Drinking Bone Broth? You should have at least one cup of bone broth a day. Try doing this for at least the first two or three weeks. Melissa saw the benefits of bone broth in just two weeks. Once you start seeing the benefits, you can drink it around three times a week. Remember, bone broth will not break your fast. [28:30] What You Can Look Forward To For The Future of Beauty and the Broth This summer, Melissa is launching Beauty in the Bark, a bone broth for dogs. Melissa samples all of the broths because they are human grade. Plus, they are working on a turkey recipe to launch for this holiday season. Ultimately Melissa wants to get i

Today, I am blessed to have here with me Eric Reynolds. He uses a meat-based carnivore diet with minimal herbs and spices to recover from PTSD and drop the last of his extra body weight. Eric was a cop with the Boynton Beach Police Department near West Palm when he got shot in the foot by an armed bank robber they were chasing, and he ended up killing the suspect in the process. The whole incident left him in a pretty bad way, and he started to display many signs of PTSD. He discovered the keto diet, and not only did his health improve drastically and all the excess weight melt away, but he found peace and tranquillity began to return to his life, and his symptoms of PTSD start to fade. He has since retired from the force and is now committed to helping other police officers get their health back and help them deal with similar problems to his. He has established an organization called Keto-Five-0. In this episode, Eric opens up about the shooting that changed his life while working at the Boynton Beach Police Department. As a cop, Eric was overweight, unhealthy, and experiencing signs of PTSD. After learning about a ketogenic lifestyle, Eric lost weight, increased his energy levels, and improved brain function. Tune in as Eric speaks about the inpsprition behind his Keto Five-O resources and how he helps improve the lives of active and retired police officers.

[07:05] What Happened When Eric Was Working As A Boynton Beach Police Department While working as a cop, Eric got a call to be on the lookout for a certain car. When Eric found the car, he got into a car chase. After the car got into a crash, the suspect started shooting; Eric was shot, and the suspect was killed. Down the road, Eric started to show signs of PTSD. As a cop, Eric was unhealthy and overweight. Most of the time, cops are eating fast food. [17:55] How Eric Learned About Keto and What Happened When He Tried The Carnivore Diet After the shooting, Eric had a rough time getting back into the swing of things. Eventually, Eric cut out beer and sweets to try and lose weight. He lost ten pounds. Eric met someone who lost fifty pounds by doing keto. The first resource Eric went to was Ketogenic.com: https://ketogenic.com/ Keto resources helped Eric with meal prep; he was down another eight pounds in two weeks. By following a carnivore diet, Eric got his weight down to 176 and could actually see his abs. [23:30] How Eric Became The Keto Five-O Guy and His Passion For Nutrition At work, Eric would get a lot of questions about how he lost so much weight. So, Eric would refer people to The Magic Pill: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6duhSjYyj0k Then, some of Eric’s peers started to lose weight themselves. Eventually, Eric started a Facebook Group. You can find it here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/ketofiveo/. Doctors were pushing statins on Eric, which is one of the reasons why he started to study and do research. He loves helping people get off medicines and find the best nutrition plan possible. [26:50] How Eric’s Health Improved When He Started To Lose Weight With Keto You have to feed the brain. When Eric started to lose weight, his energy levels improved, and his brain fog disappeared. For the first time in a long time, Eric wasn’t as sore or inflamed. Most cops die before they get to enjoy their pension. Unfortunately, many cops die of heart attacks or develop diabetes. Overall, when you lose weight, you feel good, you’re happier, and you may live longer. [38:00] Cops and Campers: Improving The Lives of Active and Retired Police Officers After doing 23andMe, Eric found out he had a brother that was also a cop living in Florida. He was a cop two hours away in Orlando. Eric’s brother was a year and a half older. During the pandemic, Eric and his family traveled in a camper. Eric filmed a short documentary called Cops & Cabins: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mZmGaMZzvck. [47:40] Remember That Keto Is Not A Diet, It’s A Lifestyle Stick with keto. Keto is not a diet; it’s a way of life. By following keto, Eric probably put another ten years onto his life. Overall, keto works! AND MUCH MORE!

[03:10] We Need More People Who Are Curious and Less Polarization There's an enormous number of really, really angry calorie counters. They are angry because they’re hungry. Unfortunately, many calorie counters have an interest in punching someone who disagrees with them. These people will punch with their keyboards. While some vegans are so vehement because of some type of trauma they experienced. Then, keto people believe they can’t have any carbs. People are doing anything they can think of to drive a wedge. We need a group of people who are willing to be curious and experiment. [10:10] Dave Loves Banning Trolls on Social Media Who Are Angry About Fasting Dave has taught 70,000 people how to do intermittent fasting for free. Check out the Fast This Way Challenge: https://daveasprey.com/fast-this-way-challenge/. People can go twenty-four hours without being hungry. Dave bans people from his social media channels who are shrill, angry, and tiny-minded. When you ban angry people, you will be left with a peaceful space for inquiry and curiosity. [13:10] Stop Consuming Omega-6 Oils! Two Years Later, Your Body Will Recover There are things you do that make you weak, and things you do make you strong. The first thing you need to do is stop eating omega-6 oils: canola, soy, and corn. Your cell membrane is actually a whole bunch of tiny droplets of fat. It changes composition based on what you eat. Once you cut the oils out and two years have gone by, half of your cell membranes will have turned over and been made out of more stable, healthier fats. If you put butter and MCT in your coffee, you won’t need as much of it after two years. [18:25] Dave Gives Recommendations For Eating Out At Restaurants While Traveling When eating at a restaurant, you must assume your food is being cooked in vegetable oil. Dave is known for carrying grass-fed butter in his bag and whipping it out at restaurants. When you travel, bring protein powder and amino acid powder. When you’re out at a restaurant, you won’t have to worry about what to eat. You can go 24 hours without eating, and you have protein powder if you need it. Dave eats a lot of sushi; it’s clean food. [26:15] Dave Gives His Thoughts on Fish Oil and Why You Should Never Overdo It You don’t want too much fish oil. There's plenty of evidence that small doses of fish oil are good for you. Dave takes a gram a day. He weighs about 230 and
Matty Lansdown | Making Long-Lasting Healthy Lifestyle Changes That Are Meaningful and Sustainable KKP: 412
Today, I am blessed to have here with me Matty Lansdown. As a scientist and nutrition consultant with a passion for sharing the truth, Matty started on Facebook Live ranting about Food Is Medicine and Nutritional Therapies, which soon moved to seminars, retreats, and conferences in front of thousands and is now accompanied by his growing podcast called “How To NOT Get Sick And Die.” The aim has always been: to have people feel like they’re in control of their health and empowered to take the necessary action! After ten years of study, research, and experimentation, Matty has worked to become a prolific voice in the health, nutrition, and diet space, including food is medicine, body detoxification, energy optimization, and weight loss. To empower individuals to live their best life Matty deliver this scientific training through stories and metaphors that allow you to live a highly energetic life, increase your productivity, lose a few kilos in the process and do the things you used to without having to stare at the number on the scales. In this episode, Matty opens up the show by explaining what he learned from working at a cancer hospital. For one, Matty learned that lifestyle choices cause around 95% of cancers. That is one of the reasons why he is so passionate about nutrition, so Matty reveals why diet culture doesn’t work and how you can slowly begin to change your lifestyle. Tune in as we chat about awakening people to the power of government, ways to celebrate your wins, and how to enjoy your food guilt-free.

[00:50] About Matty Lansdown and What He Learned From Working At A Cancer Hospital Matty’s mom was a nurse; he was always in the hospital. From a very young age, he developed this really positive relationship with the concept of medicine and hospitals. At university, Matty lived on beer, rice, pasta, and bread. Eventually, Matty got a job at a cancer hospital. Matty learned that the World Health Organization said that 90 to 95% of cancers are due to diet, lifestyle, and tobacco. At the time, only 5% of cancers were genetic. Unfortunately, much of society doesn’t believe that lifestyle choices cause cancer. [17:50] Why Diet Culture Doesn’t Work and How To Do “One Tweak A Week” Some people have been on forty diets, and they are in a more unhealthy state than when they first began their journey. You can’t solve deep problems during an eight-week course. Matty says, “one tweak a week.” If you jump too far out of your comfort zone, your nervous system will think it’s unsafe and dangerous. When you do one tweak a week, your new lifestyle will get built slowly over time. While on the other hand, when you go on a diet, you are supposed to do everything all at once. [26:05] Making Long-Lasting Changes That Are Meaningful and Sustainable Most people want everything to happen tomorrow; however, you need the maturity to understand that it is impossible. You will trick yourself into failing if you think everything will change tomorrow. If you do too much too fast, you will wear yourself out. There is not enough space in 24 hours to live an unsustainable transformation. Make your tweak meaningful, but not too significant or too much change at one time. [33:15] How Covid Is Awakening People To The Power of The Media and The Government Melbourne is the most locked-down city on the planet. It has been a lonely and challenging time in Melbourne. Matty noticed that Netflix had photoshopped masks onto their thumbnails during the pandemic. Covid is awakening people to the power of the media and the fact that the news is a PR agency for the government. Now, people are thinking about what belief systems have been embedded in their subconscious. [37:00] Forming Your Own Identity By Challenging Your Ideas and Belief Systems Perpetually challenging the ideas in your head is a healthy way to start forming your own identity. We meet and eat with our friends and families, so we have the same relationships around food as we do with our loved ones. Is your relationship with food one that you have, or is it one that has been embedded in you? Anything is possible once you take control of your belief systems and your own decisions.
