The ketogenic diet and intermittent fasting is great, but it will only get you so far in this day and age. The number 1 cause of weight loss plateaus and weight gain, is cellular inflammation. The number 1 cause of cellular inflammation is toxins. Toxicity is a Generational Epidemic. “I believe there are 3 main toxins affecting 4 generations that are leading to an explosion of chronic disease and obesity.” – Dr. Daniel Pompa Lead Mercury Glyphosate From The Womb to The Tomb The Environmental Working Group (EWG) examined the cord blood of newborns and found… They began life exposed to as many as 287 of the 413 toxic chemicals in the study 180 chemicals found are known to cause cancer Cancer rates in children have risen 67.1% since 1950. According to the Columbia University School of Public Health: “95% of cancer is caused by diet and the environment”.

Silver amalgam fillings Contact lenses Flu shots Vaccinations The DRASCH study. Gustav Drasch, the medical jurist and professor of toxicology at the University of Munich, has carried out new and impressive studies which show that… the amount of mercury in aborted embryos and dead infants corresponds to the number of amalgam fillings present in mom. HUGH FUDENBURG, MD - the world's leading immunologist and 13th most quoted biologist of our time, with nearly 850 papers in peer review journals: “If an individual has had 5 consecutive flu shots between 1970 - 1980 (the years of the study) his/her chance of developing Alzheimer's Disease is 10 times greater than if they had one, two, or no vaccinations”. When ask why, he said the gradual mercury and aluminum build up in the brain Common Symptoms of Mercury: Depression Mild fatigue Anxiety Forgetfulness Eyelid, face, or muscle twitching Digestive issues Constipation and or diarrhea Frequent bad breath Constant body odor Dizziness Irritability Sensitivity to sound Inability to concentrate (Brain Fog) Abnormal menses Low body temperature Cold hands and feet Tender teeth Tinnitus (Ringing in the ears) Insomnia Metallic taste in the mouth Nail fungus Unexplained Anger Autoimmune response Glyphosate makes this all worse.

Today, I am blessed to have here with me Robbie Bent. In an effort to affect positive change and address the problem of loneliness and the detrimental effects it has on our individual and collective health, Robbie built a platform that includes physical spaces, a mobile app, a concert tour and a global community. Othership is a digital product to shift your state whenever and wherever you are. Robbie’s app consists of over 250 guided breathwork classes to harness the power of the breath and build promoting habits. A transformative tool that makes up-regulating, down-regulating, and everything in between easeful, effective, and fun. He also goes on tour with live musical breathwork performances, sort of like a Cirque Du Soleil journey inward. In this episode, Robbie speaks about his rock bottom and what he had to do to turn his life around. He talks about the importance of meditation and what it’s like to meditate for ten hours a day for ten days. Then, Robbie dives into breathwork and how breathing can completely change your state. If you’re looking for a free and easy biohack, breathing can be a simple way to improve your health. Tune in as we chat about Othership, how to digest your food better, and the reason you should conquer your fears.

One hundred people were working for him, his parents and friends had invested millions of dollars, and his entire income was tied up. The company failed, and Robbie had to fire one hundred people. Robbie sold his car, moved out of his apartment, and moved back in with his parents. Plus, Robbie was struggling with addiction. After reading The 4-hour Workweek, Robbie turned his life around. Get The 4-hour Workweek here: https://www.amazon.com/4-Hour-Workweek-Escape-Live-Anywhere/dp/0307465357/benazadi-20 [08:00] What It Is Like To Meditate Ten Hours A Day For Ten Days It doesn't really matter how much you've been practicing; the difficulty of meditating for ten hours is still the same. After the first few days, you start to ease into the routine. We are always turned on, and we are never bored. How often are you just sitting? Almost never. So, meditating is a nice way to interrupt your routine. [10:55] How Breath-Control Can Change Your State and Heart Rate The breath controls our autonomic nervous system. When you're naturally calm, you will breathe slower. You can actually use your breath to trigger your state. If you need energy in the morning, try sympathetic breathing. Parasympathetic breathing will help you relax. The best way to get into the parasympathetic nervous system is by lengthening the exhale and including breath retention. A big breath in will increase the heart rate and energy. If you are nervous, you need long and slow exhales. [18:00] All About Othership And Finding Peak Experiences A peak experience can happen through breathwork. Othership will help shift your state and quiet the thinking mind. During Covid, Robbie created fear release sessions. The app was created to help people who are struggling with meditation. Plus, there’s a physical space where Robbie has created a community to solve the loneliness pandemic. [23:25] How Doing Breathwork Can Help You Digest Food Better   When you do slow breathing, you’re triggering the parasympathetic state. You will be sending blood flow from the brain and muscles to the organs. That way, you are preparing your body for digestion. Also, eat without looking at your phone. The best thing you can do is be aware while you’re eating. [26:30] Why You Should Practice Breathwork Before Going To Sleep If you eat something acidic before bed, it can affect sleep. Your body needs to regulate its pH balance. As a result, it starts over breathing This can cause dehydration in the evening. If you wake up with a dry mouth, you are mouth breathing. Something you can try is mouth tape. Meditation and breathwork before bed can help with inflammation, breathing patterns, sleep, and dehydration. [29:45] How Breathing Can Replace Caffeine and Increase Blood Flow The “up” section in Othership is creating a fight or flight response. This type of breathwork will send blood flow to the brain. Plus, it will help you get prepared and increase alertness. Breathing is about shifting your state, whereas meditation is about focus and awareness of your thoughts and emotions. You can shift your state with breathing. Think about breathing if you want to reduce your caffeine intake. [33:40] What Robbie Does To Conquer His Fears The more fearful situations you put yourself through, the more your tolerance will increase. Many people are fearful of rejection, so they don’t try. The more you are comfortable with fear, the more you will be willing to try. Get comfortable with discomfort to find what is available to you in life. AND MUCH MORE!

Today, I have here with me Prof. Brian Peskin, a world-leading scientist specializing in parent EFAs — termed PEOs — and their direct relationship to cardiovascular disease, cancer, and wound care (both traumatic and chronic). Brian has always had one goal – to help people — regardless of personal sacrifice. But despite his integrity, Brian has suffered a lot of criticism and even slander as a reward for his hard work. Brian is not alone. Many other health researchers have also spoken the truth and were chastised for it. Brian’s great genius is “connecting the dots” between established sciences that usually remain separated, and coupling his findings with real-life results. He combines theory with practicality in a very unique way. Even though Brian does not always take credit for the science he has studied – he is often only the messenger of the information already published in leading medical textbooks and medical journals — he has also been called a “quack. Brian attended the world’s leading engineering institution, Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), where he studied highly complex mathematics, engineering and physics, along with probability and statistics. He has also studied biochemistry and physiology. Brian’s various fields of study give him a unique systems perspective when applied to health and nutrition. Electrical engineering is an exact science. 90 Day Detox Program: http://www.ketokampdetox.com Order Keto Flex: http://www.ketoflexbook.com -------------------------------------------------------- / / 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.

Today, I am blessed to have here with me Dr. Richard Johnson. He is a professor of medicine at the University of Colorado and is a clinician, educator, and researcher. He is board-certified in internal medicine, infectious diseases, and kidney disease and is the founding editor of Comprehensive Clinical Nephrology, one of the main textbooks on kidney disease.  For more than 20 years, he has led research on the cause of obesity and diabetes, with a special interest in the role of sugar (especially fructose) and uric acid. His research has been highly cited, published in top medical journals, and supported by grants from the National Institutes of Health. He is the author of The Sugar Fix and The Fat Switch. Dr. Johnson lives in Colorado with his wife, kids, and two rambunctious puppies. Read Nature Wants Us To Be Fat: https://www.amazon.com/Nature-Wants-Fat-Prevent-Reverse-ebook/dp/B097XMY9VG/benazadi-20 In this episode, Dr. Johnson talks about the inspiration behind his uric acid research. He speaks about the correlation between uric acid, fructose, sugar, and inflammation. Plus, he explains why your body would be producing excess uric acid. Later, we discuss why the keto lifestyle is so powerful and the reason burning calories isn’t the purpose behind exercise. Tune in as we dive into the benefits of the ketogenic lifestyle and Dr. Johnson’s latest book, Nature Wants Us To Be Fat. 90 Day Detox Program: http://www.ketokampdetox.com Order Keto Flex: http://www.ketoflexbook.com -------------------------------------------------------- / / 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.

High blood pressure has something to do with the kidneys and salt. A substance called uric acid seems to be important in what causes high blood pressure. As he studied uric acid, he started to realize it was more than just high blood pressure and gout. Uric acid is actually involved in obesity, metabolic syndrome, and diabetes. Eventually, he found that fructose led to an increase in uric acid. [04:20] What Is The Connection Between High Uric Acid and Inflammation? Our body is made up of protein, carbohydrates, fat, bone, etc. Uric acid is considered a waste product. When we eat meats, drink beer, and eat sugar, these foods can generate uric acid. Uric acid is what is excreted from the body. If uric acid is built up, it can lead to inflammation and gout. 9 million people in the United States suffer from gout. A lot of people have low-grade inflammation in their blood. This inflammation can accelerate diseases like atherosclerosis and heart disease. [09:10] Why Is Your Body Producing Excess Uric Acid? If your uric acid is very high, it increases your risk for mortality. Plus, uric acid is being linked to cancer. Uric acid is involved in the process to make fat. When you eat enough fructose, it triggers uric acid. The body switches from making a lot of ATP to storing the energy in fat. Uric acid is actually important in survival. Humans are very sensitive to fructose. Fructose is in table sugar and high fructose table sugar. [24:20] Why The Keto Lifestyle Is So Powerful Our bodies can make fructose. Potatoes and rice do not contain fructose, but they contain what we call high glycemic carbs, it triggers this response in your body to make fructose. You will start making fructose in response to these carbs. That's why carbs are driving obesity dramatically. The keto diet is powerful because it blocks these two major food groups: fructose and high glycemic carbs. [29:30] The Benefits You Get From Exercise   When you exercise, you do things that help the mitochondria regenerate. If the mitochondria regenerate, they can go back to normal. When the function of the mitochondria improves, your energy improves. You can diet all you want, but if your mitochondria are bad, you will also go back to your original weight. When you’re young and gain weight, you can lose it much easier. [38:55] One of the Many Benefits of A Ketogenic Lifestyle When you eat sugar, you have to absorb the sugar. The ability to absorb sugar varies from person to person. If you're eating sugar every day, you're going to absorb the sugar very fast. When you put an animal on a high sugar diet, it will learn how to absorb it fast and absorb it very efficiently. If you don't eat sugar, those transport systems to transport the sugar into the body get turned off. [43:35] The Importance of Oxygen For Creating Energy When you make ATP in the mitochondria, you use oxygen. One of the main reasons we need oxygen is for our mitochondria to make the energy we need. If we don't have enough oxygen, we can't make energy very well. Our body likes to use glucose as fuel. Insulin resistance reduces the amount of glucose that gets into our muscles, liver, and fat. Much of the brain does not require insulin to move glucose in. AND MUCH MORE!

She struggled to make her body do what it needed to do. As a result, Dr. Lucas had major stress fractures in her back and had stress fractures in her feet. To be healthy, Dr. Lucas would eat five grams of fat a day. After going to a doctor, she found out that she was over-exercising and not eating enough. Eventually, Dr. Lucas earned her Ph.D. in sports nutrition and chronic disease. She wanted to study what happens to the body when we undereat. [08:30] How Burning Sugar Is Like A Wood Fireplace Generally, we are carbohydrate or sugar burners. Carb burners are like wood-burning fireplaces. You constantly have to stuff wood in it, so it doesn’t burn out. When people have to eat every three hours, they are running out of sugar to keep their energy up. Fat-burning is like a propane tank; it can go for hours or maybe days. Every cell in the body prefers to burn fat for its fuel. [13:15] What Exactly Is Visceral Fat and What You Need To Know About It Visceral fat isn’t something you can see or pinch. Visceral fat actually fills up in the organs. This fat really gets in the liver. Visceral fat grows its own blood vessels, and it starts to secrete its own hormones. The number one goal of visceral fat is to grow larger. This type of fat will wake you up in the middle of the night and send you to the fridge to eat something. It secretes aromatase, which increases the risk for breast cancer significantly. Overall, visceral fat messes with every aspect of our bodies. [20:30] How To Stop Your Yo-Yo Dieting Habits The first thing you need to do is to recognize why the yo-yo is happening. When you start to lose weight, you will feel better. However, you will still have excess fat that's active and metabolically working against you. When you have that excess fat, your risk of weight regain is really high. You need to understand the importance of fully collapsing the fat mass and getting the body truly where it needs to be. As we age, we're not supposed to get fatter. We actually tolerate fat less because fat is toxic. The next step is to get accountability and get support. [26:50] About PHD Weight Loss and How The Program Works Check out PHD Weight Loss: https://myphdweightloss.com/ First, Dr. Lucas will determine your fat mass and customize a meal plan to fit your goals. They like to provide 85% of their client’s food. That way, you can break sugar addiction, and there will be no withdrawals. 80% of weight loss comes from mental and emotional aspects. Overall, the PHD weight loss program is a multi-therapeutic approach. [34:55] How We Create Better Stories That Are Going To Serve Our Health and Our Future You only have to tell yourself something 50 times before you create a neural pathway. We get locked into these stories that we tell ourselves. There's also so much fear wrapped around losing weight. The body can go down physically in weight, but if it's not accompanied by mental and emotional work, that weight loss will not stay. [40:50] Why Dr. Lucas Hates The Term “Cheat Meal” A cheat meal will make you feel full of shame and guilt. Instead, you should enjoy the food and feel good about it. Your new diet will be a new lifestyle. So, you’re never “cheating.” What good are you gaining from cheating on yourself? Remember, eating is not about feeling bad! [46:45] Are You Really Hungry? Find Mindfulness To Make The Best Decision Understand the different aspects of what common triggers of overeating or binging can be. When you’re having problems with food, bring yourself to the present moment. If your emotions are out of whack, then you may find yourself eating something. Being tired is another trigger for making bad choices when it comes to food. The evening meal can be the hardest when you’re tired. Instead, bring yourself to the present moment and find some sort of mindfulness. That way, you can decide what will make you feel the best. AND MUCH MORE!

Today, I am blessed to have here with me Dr. Bruce Lipton. He is an internationally recognized leader in bridging science and spirit. Stem cell biologist, bestselling author of The Biology of Belief and recipient of the 2009 Goi Peace Award, he has been a guest speaker on hundreds of TV and radio shows, as well as keynote presenter for national and international conferences. Dr. Lipton has taken his award-winning medical school lectures to the public and is currently a sought-after keynote speaker and workshop presenter. He lectures to conventional and complementary medical professionals and lay audiences about leading-edge science and how it dovetails with mind-body medicine and spiritual principles. He has been heartened by anecdotal reports from hundreds of former audience members who have improved their spiritual, physical and mental wellbeing by applying the principles he discusses in his lectures. He is regarded as one of the leading voices of the new biology. In this episode, Dr. Bruce Lipton explains the basics of what stem cells are and why they are so important in gene expression research. Dr. Lipton also emphasizes the importance of understanding that our cell receptors can pick up energy vibrations and how our cells use that information to send signals to our brains! Last but not least, Dr. Lipton discusses how stress hormones are stealing energy from our bodies and how we can reprogram our minds to limit these stressors through the fundamentals of habit changing. 90 Day Detox Program: http://www.ketokampdetox.com Order Keto Flex: http://www.ketoflexbook.com [02:05] The Basics of Stem Cells & Signals From The Environment Many of the cells in our body are embryonic cells, meaning they can replace any piece that was just lost. They can become brain, skin, muscle, bone, whatever is needed. However, we can't call a cell in an adult human an embryonic cell. So we changed the name to the stem cell. The idea that the general population holds is that genes turn on and off and, in the process, control the expression of our cells. Lipton, however, found while cloning stem cells that taking genetically identical cells and putting them in different environments made the cells show an expression that fit that environment. This shows that the expression of cells is not controlled by genes but by signals from the environment. [16:54] How Energy Frequencies And Our Cell Receptors Intertwine Cell receptors are like antennas that receive signals. Conventional people would say that receptors only respond to physical things like pharmaceutical drugs. Lipton explains that these receptors actually pick up energy vibrations. Receptors pick up signals from the environment and adjust the body accordingly to live in that environment. [19:50] How Our Frequencies Communicate With DNA to Produce Proteins When we see something we love, our brain translates that into complementary chemistry. When we are in love, dopamine is released by the brain, goes into the blood, goes into the cells, and engages them in a pleasurable sensation. Oxytocin is also released when you are feeling love. It sends the signal to your brain to bond with whatever you are feeling love towards. These love hormones promote growth and vitality. Likewise, when we see something that scares us, chemicals are also released. But on the other hand, the chemicals released when we are scared do not promote growth; they instead use that energy to get the body ready to run away. [24:16] How Stress Hormones Steal From Your Body Stress hormones cause the body to shut down the energy used in growth and maintenance, the immune system, and the system's intelligence. The immune system uses a great deal of energy; however, when the body is introduced to stress hormones, it takes energy away from the immune system and gives that energy to get the body ready for stressful situations. When this system was designed, it was helpful because, if a tiger was chasing you, after 10 minutes and you used all of your energy and escaped, you could go back to growth and health again. In today's world, however, stress is involved in so many parts of our everyday lives that we are releasing stress hormones all day, and our body is not able to maintain itself. [33:08] Knowledge Is The Key To Reprogramming The Mind The lack of knowledge is the lack of power. Big pharmaceutical companies have systematically deprived people of knowledge. We must find a balance in this world where even if someone has a different opinion, it isn't censored out of the people’s view. [42:59] DNA Is A Blueprint And The Mind Is An Architect DNA can be thought of as a blueprint used to make the proteins that are the body's building blocks. This means that instead of the popular idea that genes can turn themselves on and off, they are actually just read or not read. Lipton shares that this is important because the reader of this blueprint is the brain and the mind. So as you change your perception of the world, you can change your genetic activity. As the DNA is the blueprint, the mind is the architect. Meaning that if something in the blueprint needs to be changed, it has the power to do so. This also allows it to adapt to its environment. [49:46] Reprogramming To The Side Of Abundance And Love vs. Fear The biggest problem of changing a program is to recognize that the program occurs in the subconscious. The subconscious is a habit mind, and it is not open to randomly changing a habit. It wants to hold onto that habit, and it will resist change as much as possible. There are two fundamental ways to change a habit. The first is that in the first seven years, your brain was in a state of theta, or hypnosis. Therefore, self-hypnosis is a way to change a habit. You can do this by putting earphones on at night before bed and playing a program of something you want. This works because the level of brain activity below consciousness is theta. So, the discussion is happening in your subconscious instead of your conscious brain. The second fundamental way to change a habit is practice. If you put something into practice with repetition, repetition, repetition, it will eventually become habitual. Last, there is a new form of psychology called energy psychology. Which offers what Dr. Lipton refers to it as "super learning." This new form of psychology could potentially be a huge step in changing our behaviors. AND MUCH MORE!

Today, I am blessed to have here with me Dr. Shayne Morris. He has unique and broad experiences, for over 30 years, in the nutritional industry and scientific community. Trained first in the ways of natural product sourcing, quality, design and manufacturing which, quickly led to the pursuit of a formal education in chemistry, microbiology, and finally a Ph.D. in molecular biology and biochemistry. Passionate about owning a business in the industry, Dr. Shayne Morris also earned a Master’s in Business degree. He is an adjunct professor in chemistry at WSU and is a Certified Nutrition Specialist in the American College of Nutrition. Dr. Shayne Morris has authored a number of peer-reviewed journal articles, scientific abstracts, talks and patents in the areas of biological chemistry, natural products and product development. Recent significant research is focused on our microbiome and the probiotic potential of unique human microbes. As part of Dr. Shayne Morris’ research his lab has developed unique growing and stabilizing methods for important commensal organisms like Bacteroides, Akkermansia, beneficial phage and more. Not only are personalized microbes important the nature of their food and metabolites are equally important to the microbiome as a whole and the human symbiosis. Therefore, prebiotic research has become an inseparable component of the probiotic research and in some cases more impactful than probiotics alone. In this episode, Dr. Shayne Morris opens the show by discussing how he became invested in the microbiome. Ketosis is fantastic for the microbiome; Dr. Morris explains what benefits are taking place in the gut when you’re burning ketones. We have 10 trillion cells in the human body, and each has its own job; Dr. Morris reveals how you can help your cells complete their job as efficiently as possible. Tune in as we chat about your microbiome’s circadian rhythm, the importance of bile, and Systemic Formulas. 90 Day Detox Program: http://www.ketokampdetox.com Order Keto Flex: http://www.ketoflexbook.com -------------------------------------------------------- / / 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.

To learn more, Dr. Morris buried himself into the educational side and went after microbiological degrees along with biochemical degrees. It wasn't until the 2000s that we identified the importance of microbes. Remember, we're a human built from about 10 trillion cells. Now, Dr. Morris has a research lab on the microbiome and develops products to improve the microbiome. [08:50] Why Dr. Shayne Morris Is Such A Big Fan of Keto One of the most brilliant aspects of adapting to keto is for people that are struggling with metabolic issues. Every organ in the body can utilize ketones. Ketones can really change the way that mitochondria work. Plus, ketones can affect the oxidative stress that cells are under. On a cellular level, ketones offer so much benefit in terms of their energy production. Lastly, we're genetically predesigned to store fats. [17:20] We Have 10 Trillion Cells, and Each Cell Has Its Own Job We are a complex of 10 trillion cells. Each cell has its own job. For instance, the cells in the eye behave very differently than the cells in the brain. Each and every one of those cells has a very specific set of duties. For a cell to do its job, it needs energy! Overall, we want to generate more positive genetic outcomes on the cellular level. [24:40] How Your Gut Affects Your Whole Body There’s a complexity of color that we see in nature. When you eat different compounds, you are feeding the microbiome. We have to think about the microbiome as the gateway to all the things we need in our bodies. Our gut, anatomically, is the largest immune system. Plus, it is the largest innervated system outside of the brain. The gut controls everything. Your microbiome is what's directing all of the traffic in the body. [30:15] Why Burning Sugar Is Producing More Cellular Inflammation When you look at burning sugar, there's a time and a place. Burning sugar is a quick way to release energy. When you eat sugar, it should come from plants. Sugar and flour are not good sources of carbs. Burning sugar can generate free radicals. When you're flooding the mitochondria with just sugar, it gets overwhelmed. All these signals are going out into the cell, saying we're broken, and it’s time to shut down. [40:25] Do You Really Need To Eat Vegetables? Your microbiome has a circadian rhythm. That rhythm isn't just based on the moon or the sun; it's based on the nutrients we get. If we're in winter, we have a different microbial rhythm than we do in the summer. These rhythms are part of the more, the greater picture of diet. Throughout the winter, there typically weren’t fruits and vegetables to eat. Instead, people would eat fats and meats. Our microbiome is supremely adapted to function on these rhythms and on these different diets. When you rotate your diet, it creates diversity. [59:00] Learn More About Systemic Formulas: Lb – Liver/Gall Bladder Check out Lb here: https://revelationhealth.com/products/systemic-formulas-61-lb-liver-gall-bladder?_pos=2&_sid=a6614201f&_ss=r/azadi?afmc=azadi This formula was designed to help the body maintain proper portal duct function. It assists in purifying the blood of mucus-forming matter. There are a number of herbs that we know can drive up bile production. Plus, all these mechanisms or pathways that help us produce those so you can generate enough bile. If you take enzymes, they help break down the lipids, the carbohydrates, and the proteins. Probiotics and prebiotics will drive up the quality and quantity of bile needed to address healthy fats. AND MUCH MORE!

Today, I am blessed to have here with me Temple Stewart. She is a Registered Dietitian, Certified Personal Trainer, and Health Behavior Change Specialist. Temple played D1 soccer at the University of Tennessee Martin, which is where she received a degree in Dietetics. She completed an internship at the VA Medical Center in Bay Pines, FL. Temple currently works and lives in St. Petersburg, FL with her husband and their two poodles, Axel and Rowdie. Throughout college Temple developed a very unhealthy relationship with food and began using food rules or diets as punishment or for comfort. This behavior propelled Temple into learning all she could about food and how impacts our bodies, ultimately making her choose to become a Registered Dietitian. Throughout the process, Temple began to learn how to eat for health and how to develop a healthy relationship with food. Along the road, she was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis and PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome), furthermore increasing her interest in treating the body with nutrition. In this episode, Temple talks about her journey to health and reversing the symptoms of both PCOS and Hashimotos. As a trained dietitian, Temple reveals why her education around food wasn’t exactly the best information. Plus, Temple dives into her favorite health hacks, including the carnivore diet, intermittent fasting, carb cycling, and lab work. Tune in as we chat about how much protein you should be eating, how keto will help with fertility, and tips for asking your doctor about prescribing a CGM. 90 Day Detox Program: http://www.ketokampdetox.com Order Keto Flex: http://www.ketoflexbook.com -------------------------------------------------------- / / 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.

Plus, she had no menstrual cycles. When she went to the doctor, they put her on birth control. After moving to Florida to become a dietitian, Temple’s health worsened. Temple was doing exactly what they taught her in dietitian school: eat less, move more, more vegetables, and less fat. Eventually, Temple was diagnosed with both PCOS and Hashimotos. [06:10] How Temple Realized Her Dietitian Training Was Garbage Temple read The Obesity Code: https://www.amazon.com/The-Obesity-Code-Dr-Jason-Fung-audiobook/dp/B01MRKEO0U/benazadi-20 After reading The Obesity Code, she went down a rabbit hole with tons of other resources. She started helping patients in the hospital lower their carbs. Temple did a research study; every single person got off their medications and lost weight after lowering their carbs. [08:30] It Took Three Months For Temple To Reverse Her Hashimoto’s Symptoms Hashimoto’s thyroiditis is essentially an autoimmune disease. A lot of times, Hashimoto’s and PCOS go hand-in-hand. Keto can be so helpful because it takes away a lot of the triggers of the immune system. Through nutrition, Temple was able to get rid of all her symptoms. [16:00] If You’re Starting To Change Your Diet, Try Carnivore  Everyone can benefit from a carnivore lifestyle. A lot of people are suffering from something and don't realize it until they go carnivore. If you want to get into ketosis quickly, try carnivore for a couple of days. People who are hitting plateaus can definitely benefit from a carnivore diet. [16:55] Insulin Resistance Is Actually Weight Loss Resistance What's causing the weight to stay on your body could be due to insulin. There are people who have tried every diet in the book. For the most part, people end up lowering calories. However, nothing will work when insulin resistance is up. Weight loss is typically a symptom; it usually comes after you heal your body. [18:45] Strategies For Overcoming A Keto Weight Loss Stall   A lot of times, carb cycling can be effective. Complex carbs can help women depending on where they are in their cycle. Temple will also suggest switching up your intermittent fasting routine. The same thing goes for exercise – sometimes you are doing too much! Plus, don’t forget to look at your sleep and your stress. Lastly, you may need to get labs and see what’s going on with your hormones. [21:30] Why Temple Loves To Implement Intermittent Fasting   Intermittent fasting is great for weight loss, aging, and protecting the brain. Many people do well fasting for 16-hours and having an 8-hour eating window. A 72 hour fast done quarterly can reset your immune system. Temple will encourage her clients to do what works for them. Fasting during breakfast is very popular. However, many women do better when they fast during dinner time. With intermittent fasting, the sky is the limit. [25:15] How Much Protein Temple Will Recommend For Her Clients   Temple recommends .8 or .9 grams per kilogram of body weight for a woman. People who are snacking could stop if they meet their protein needs. Most women are undereating protein. The recommendations out there on protein are so low! [30:10] Why Protein Is So Satiating and Filling To The Human Body Protein is the building block for everything. It's really the only macronutrient that you cannot live without. Plus, protein is extremely satiating. It's really hard to eat an exorbitant amount of food when you’re eating protein. [32:35] Why The Scale Is Setting You Up For Failure Women can fluctuate eight pounds just in terms of hormonal water weight gain when they cycle through their period. People get so attached to the scale because society values thinness. Instead, you should judge based on how you feel. Think about how your bowel movements are, what your skin feels like, how your hair is growing. The scale should be way down the list of importance when it comes to health. [37:00] Tips On Speaking With Your Doctor About Your Health   First, Temple says you need to find the right doctor. Usually, a doctor can get you a CGM. Naturopaths and more holistic homeopathic physicians should be able to help you. Tell them you are interested in how food impacts your blood glucose levels. If a doctor shuts you down or isn't even willing to have the conversation with the insurance company, you might think about finding someone who is. [40:30] Should I Follow A Keto Diet If I’m Trying To Get Pregnant? PCOS is the most common cause of infertility. The most common cause of PCOS is absolutely insulin resistance. So, keto will improve your chances of getting pregnant. PCOS women are at a much higher risk for gestational diabetes. Going low carb will be safe if you’re doing it in a nourishing way. You have to focus heavily on fatty meats. When you get pregnant, you really have to focus and make sure you're getting the right nutrients. AND MUCH MORE!

Today, I am grateful to have here with me, author of New York Times bestseller The Bulletproof Diet, a Silicon Valley investor and technology entrepreneur who spent two decades and more than one million dollars to hack his own biology, Dave Asprey. Dave lost 100 pounds without counting calories or excessive exercise, used techniques to upgrade his brain and lift his IQ by 20 points, and lowered his biological age while learning to sleep more efficiently in less time. Learning to do these seemingly impossible things transformed him into a better entrepreneur, a better husband, and a better father. Through his work Dave provides information, techniques and keys to taking control of and improving your biochemistry, your body and your mind so they work in unison, helping you execute at levels far beyond what you’d expect, without burning out, getting sick, or allowing stress to control your decisions. In this episode, Dave Asprey explains why simply not eating carbs isn’t enough to lose weight and keep the weight off. Dave reveals why we need to eat the rights fats. Whenever you eat something, there are three things you need to think about: will this food be used as a building block, will this food be used as a fuel, and what toxins does the food have? Plus, Dave describes why we need to stop eating overcooked foods and the reasons we should be more concerned with the quality of our ingredients in the foods we eat.

The keto cookies are made with gluten – they are causing inflammation! If you are not in ketosis some of the time, you will not live to 180. On the Bulletproof diet, people have lost 1,000,000 pounds. Not eating carbs doesn’t work 100% of the time.  [04:50] Why We Need To Eat The Right Fats What are our cell membranes made of? Well, it depends where they are found in the body. Look at everything you eat from three different lenses: Is it going to be used as a building block? Is it going to be used as a fuel? What toxins does it have in it? What percentage of your body are carbs? Less than one percent. You do not need carbs as a building block. There is about a two-year half-life of fat in the body. When you eat good fats, it will take two years to make your cell membranes functioning. Saturated fats are awesome because they do not break easily, and they are stable. We have demonized saturated fats. However, 45% of our cell membrane fat is saturated fats. The only fat your body can make is saturated fat. Our brains need these saturated fats. Monounsaturated fats fill in the big building blocks. Omega-3s and omega-6s will be the lubricants. [12:45] Think About Quality Ingredients People will try and put anything in the keto category. It’s a problem. The quality of the ingredients matter. The reason grass-fed butter is such a big thing is because the fatty acid ratios are different. Animal fat is so precious – that’s why Dave raises his own animals. Part of the keto message has to be “don’t eat industrial meat.” It will WRECK your ketosis. Short-ribs from a grass-fed cow are covered in fat. It is a religious experience. Eat less meat and spend more on it if that what it takes to eat grass-fed meat. Half of your fat calories should be saturated. [18:50] Stop Overcooking Your Foods Overcooked food is rough on your liver. When you eat heavily charred meat, you’ll feel bad. It doesn’t matter if it’s delicious; it matters how you will feel when it’s done. Parts of our cells will act as incinerators. They burn our proteins and digest them. Overcooked foods will clog them up. If you keep shoveling them in there, then there is no mechanism to clean them up. Do not eat smoked foods! AND MUCH MORE!
