INSIGHT

Insulin's Role in Fat Burning

  • Insulin is the key hormone controlling fat burning, not just calorie intake.
  • Carbs significantly impact insulin; fat is neutral, and protein has a moderate effect.
ADVICE

Lowering Insulin for Weight Loss

  • Lower insulin levels by reducing carbohydrate intake to burn stored fat.
  • This approach eliminates hunger and cravings by using body fat as fuel.
INSIGHT

Ketosis vs. Fat Adaptation

  • It takes 2-3 days to enter ketosis, but 2-3 weeks for full fat adaptation.
  • Fat adaptation maximizes fat burning; the body uses both ketones and fat as fuel.
