[3:03] My story with vegetarian and ketogenic diet.
- I was a strict vegan for a year and a half about 6 years ago.
- I got really good results from being vegan. I felt better. My skin and sleep are better as well as my workout.
- During the 4th or 5th month, I hit the vegan wall.
- I felt really sore.
- Hormones got wonky. My sex drive was diminishing. My skin was getting skin issues.
- I studied Paul Chek, one of the considerable godfathers of holistic health, and learned about the dangers of the vegan diet.
- Blood works were done and I decided to explore the ketogenic diet.
- After a considerable amount of time on ketogenic diet, my health, in general, was good again.
[6:10] Vegan diet is great. However, there are a lot of issues in the long run.
- From the book Vegetarianism Explained: Making an Informed Decision by Dr. Natasha Campbell-McBride:
- If you look at every corner of the planet, healthy indigenous people eat a mixture of plants and animal foods. It is the animal food that was actually the most valued. The human digestive system in its structure is similar to the gut of predatory animals. We have 1 stomach without microbes in it. Our human stomach is decide to produce acids and pepsin which breaks down meat, fish, and yolks in eggs.
- Best building blocks to feed our cellular regeneration process comes from high quality animal foods.
- The brain is a fatty organ. In fact, it is composed of 60% fat and it requires fat and protein. If we are not getting that from high quality animal foods, we are actually starving our brain.
[7:48] Going vegan for a short period of time is a good idea
- As we learned from Keto Kamp Podcast Episode 1 with Dr. Pompa regarding hormone optimization and diet variation, the real purpose of plants are cleansers.
- Vegan diet is good and helpful in keeping our inside bodies clean.
- Cleaner body is always better than a toxic one.
- When the body was finished cleansing, you have to start feeding it with animal food. If not, the body will starve and deteriorate.
- Vegan diet should be seen as a form of fasting. They do not feed the body properly.
[9:00] Ketotarian, Dr. Cole’s book
- Ketogenic diet is a great diet because it marries the best of low-carb diet and the plant-based way being while avoiding the common pitfalls with both diets.
- “The ketotarian way of eating brings together healthy plant-based fat, clean protein and rich, vibrant colors of nutrient-dense vegetables.”
- Green leafy vegetables go hand-in-hand with ketosis.
- If you are a vegan, take in some algae-based omega 3s and eggs.
[11:02] Ways to detox the body
- Some of the powerful antioxidants are sea vegetables like chlorella, herbs, parsley and cilantro.
- Onion, broccoli, mushrooms, cabbage, cauliflower are all great in supporting detox pathways.
- Cole’s book, The Inflammation Spectrum, will help you discover how inflammation is at the core of most common health woes.

[13:21] Rigged System of the Conventional Medicine
- The problem with most conventional doctors is that they’ve been trained with so masterfully to diagnose disease and match it to a dedication.
- As Dr. Cole previously said, “You wouldn’t go to your mechanic to ask for a gardening advice. You wouldn’t go to your doctor and ask them for nutrition advice. They are just not trained on that and it is the sad truth.”
- If you have a doctor or a medical practitioner who’s asking you basic questions and not digging into your history, consider that a red flag.
- If your doctor doesn’t listen to you, find another doctor.
