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. The Huffington Post has also recognized her as one of the Top 35 Diet and Nutrition Experts. In this episode, Dr. Lori opens the show diving into her story. Dr. Lori’s mom died at a young age from bad health. So, Dr. Lori made it her mission to help people make healthier choices. Dr. Lori chooses to focus on inflammation because you can prevent so many diseases and health issues if you can decrease your inflammation. Plus, reducing your inflammation will most likely result in weight loss. Also, Dr. Lori explores the best foods for keeping your inflammation down and reveals why you should avoid unstable fats. Tune in as we talk magnesium, carb cycling, and which type of lab tests you should order. ➡️ Keto Kamp Membership for only $5: http://www.startketokamp.com ▸ 🎁 FREE KETO KAMP BLUEPRINT: http://www.ketokampblueprint.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. ☕️ Purity Coffee: http//:www.ketokampcoffee.com, use ketokamp at checkout for 10% off [02:15] About Dr. Lori Shemek Lori’s mom had a lot of health conditions. Her lifestyle choices drastically affected her life. 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 will determine your overall health. It allows nutrients to come in and out. The membrane is made of fat. Corn oil, vegetable oil, soil oil, canola oil, safflower oil, cottonseed oil are highly processed and highly refined. The body does not know what to do with these processed oils. The cell membrane uses fats that you’re eating. So if you’re eating vegetable oils, those fats will become your cell membrane. [21:40] The Relationship Between The Cell Membranes and The Mitochondria   The mitochondria are everywhere – they are crucial because they generate ATP, which is the energy that our cell needs to survive. Stop eating the types of foods that are ruining the cell membrane. Then, ensure that you have enough magnesium. Magnesium is crucial for your optimal health and weight. The mitochondria starts sending out signals of distress to your body. Then, your body will begin to inflame within the cell. Until we intervene and make healthier choices, then the inflammation will continue. [25:55] The Importance of Magnesium When you eat low carb, you are emitting a lot of fluids. With that fluid comes a lot of precious minerals like magnesium. Lori says that people should take magnesium as a supplement. Lori will take magnesium threonate. There are many types of magnesium. You can use a supplement that has nine different types of magnesium. If you’re overweight, you are going to need more magnesium. If you have foggy thinking, then you’re going to need more. 600 mg is excellent. [30:00] Getting In and Out of Ketosis When we go in and out of ketosis, we teach our bodies how to be metabolically flexible. Depending on what works for you, ramp up your carb intake one or two days a week. However, if you’re losing weight, then stay strict on the keto diet. When the weight starts to fall off, your body will be able to handle the carbohydrates. Otherwise, you won’t be prepared for carbs. [32:35] Benefits From Fasting Health is about ketosis. If you don’t want to do the ketogenic diet, then fasting will provide ketosis. Lori will do 14-16 hours of fasting each day. During fasting, your body will reset. If you have insulin resistance, intermittent fasting is a fantastic way to repair your body. [39:15] About Dr. Lori’s Favorite Lab Tests Test your vitamin D. If you have a low vitamin D level, then you have an inflammation problem. Your vitamin D levels should be at 70 or higher. CRP value is important; the lower, the better. 1 or 2 is ideal. Test your glucose. Even the healthiest keto foods might not agree with you. Use a glucose monitor to determine what will raise your glucose. AND MUCH MORE!

Today, I am grateful to have here with me, Krissy and Dwayne Schofield, a husband and wife team who have become passionate about optimizing their health and sharing their self-experimentation and biohacking animal-based nutrition journey with others. But it wasn't that long ago that they found themselves at their unhealthiest point. Over the last year, Krissy and Dwayne both have had the opportunity to improve their health in ways they didn't think possible. Now, they feel ten years younger and, in many ways, look better than they did back then. Krissy and Dwayne's journeys involved a lot of personal experimentation, also known as "biohacking." It has become one of their passions to discover new "health hacks" to help them continue to feel their best and share their progress and tips with others.​ They understand everyone is different, and the best way to determine what works for each individual is to experiment yourself. Krissy and Dwayne's goal is to help inspire others to discover their health potential while they continue to share their journey to infinite health.​ In this episode, Krissy and Dwayne dive into their journey of following the vegan diet and eventually finding the carnivore diet. After following the carnivore diet, Krissy and Dwayne found that their health problems vanished, their moods improved, and they have never looked better. Dwayne explains the importance of eating organ meat and fat. The vitamins and minerals that animals eat from plants are stored in the fats. So, when you eat fat, you'll get those vitamins and minerals. Stay tuned as Dwayne and Krissy answer questions from the Keto Kamp listeners, including the best portion sizes for a carnivore diet. ➡️ Keto Kamp Membership for only $5: http://www.startketokamp.com ▸ 🎁 FREE KETO KAMP BLUEPRINT: http://www.ketokampblueprint.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. ☕️ Purity Coffee: http//:www.ketokampcoffee.com, use ketokamp at checkout for 10% off [02:25] About Krissy Schofield After trying a vegan and vegetarian diet, Krissy felt better at first, but then her health started to decline. Krissy was deficient in iron and vitamin D. She also developed chronic fatigue and chronic pain, was diagnosed with interstitial cystitis started to get skin issues and eczema patches for the first time in her life. Krissy added eggs back into her diet, and eventually, Krissy felt an overwhelming feeling to eat a hamburger for the first time in years. So she did! Krissy felt so amazing afterward and had so much energy that she decided to add the meat back into her diet because she knew her body was trying to tell her something.   [13:10] About Dwayne Schofield Dwayne had several kidney stone attacks (some had to be surgically removed), chronic acid reflux, asthma attacks (one caused hospitalization), huge eczema patches, very low energy, and was at his highest ever weight. Dwayne knew things needed to change, and they needed to change fast. After doing some research, Dwayne found Dr. Ken Berry and liked his message. When Dwayne tried carnivore, his eczema completely healed, his asthma gone, and the kidney stones were eliminated. Plus, with the carnivore diet, Dwayne lost seventy pounds, his eyes turned blue, and it cured him of food addictions. Dwayne’s life has totally changed in ways he never thought possible since adopting the carnivore WOE, and his health has never been better. [35:30] The Importance of a Healthy Metabolism Most people do not have a healthy metabolism. Pull sugar out of your diet altogether to get to where you need to be. Depending on where your health is at, then you may need to be more extreme with your lifestyle changes. For instance, get rid of all plant products for a certain period of time. Later, you can add plants back into your diet. You may enjoy your new lifestyle so much that you won’t want to reintroduce those foods back into your diet. [41:05] Getting On Board With Carnivore After Dwayne was on the carnivore diet for three months, Krissy got on board. Once Krissy tried carnivore for three months, 95% of her symptoms had gone away. The brain fog was the first thing that went away for Krissy. Honestly, she felt stupid on most days. Now, she can have intelligent conversations at all hours of the day. For the first time in her life, Krissy wasn’t craving anything. Why mess with something that is working so well? [46:35] Balancing Your Omega-6    Some people will find their omega-6 levels get too high when they eat pork. If your omega-6 levels are too high, then inflammation can start. It depends on the person to know if they should be eating pork or not. You can play around with your diet. [48:50] Portion Size On Carnivore Prioritize protein levels. Dwayne and Krissy will eat 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight. It will also depend on how many times you are eating a day. Dwayne and Krissy will each eat a 16 oz steak for their meals. [53:30] Overcoming Diarrhea or Constipation Magnesium will help with both. If you have diarrhea, you may be eating too much rendered fats. Bring up your stomach acid to help with these issues.

Today, I am blessed to have here with me a sleep expert, Claus Pummer. Claus has worked with SAMINA for over 20 years and not only believes in the SAMINA Sleep System but chooses it for his health and sleep. In addition to running the North American Company, he speaks, writes, and educates people about the importance of sleep in their health and wellbeing. Natural by Design, Corp., founded by Claus Pummer in 1998, is a lifestyle furnishings company and the exclusive importer of SAMINA products in North America. Hand-crafted in the Austrian Alps, SAMINA is the naturally healthy brand of luxury organic mattresses and products promoting optimal health through sleep. Their delight comes from their customers and offering them a solution for the healthy sleep they have been missing and need now more than ever before. SAMINA healthy sleep advisers can answer questions you have about the products and are trained to understand human sleep's essentials. Their flagship organic mattress store is located conveniently in sunny Pasadena, California, not far from downtown Los Angeles. In this episode, Claus Pummer reveals the inspiration behind his career in the sleep world. Not sure if you're getting efficient sleep? Claus says that if you have brain fog, you're cranky, unhappy, or indecisive, then you are not getting the best sleep! Your mattress could be toxic, and those toxins are bioaccumulating in your body. So, when researching mattresses, make sure you know exactly what they put in it – if it doesn't sound natural, then you shouldn't be sleeping on it. Tune in as Claus reveals the benefits of SAMINA, how to notice the results from a good night's sleep, and why you should never sleep with a metal bed frame.

The more stressed out you are, the more sleep is essential. In the recession, people were saving their money to make a long-term, healthy purchase for their sleep. Eventually, Claus set his entire vision around changing the way people sleep. [06:25] The Side Effects of Poor Sleep If you’re not sleeping well, that may be the reason that you are overweight. Brain fog in the morning is a result of poor sleep. If you’re cranky, most likely, your rest was not efficient. When you’re not happy in life, then perhaps you do not sleep well enough. If you’re indecisive, then that’s a sign of poor sleep. Not enough people talk about the proper way to sleep. [09:20] The Problems With Your Mattress Mattresses are one of the worst things to buy for humans. A study found that people dreaded a mattress purchase over everything else (except buying a car). People understand that they need a mattress, but they don’t want to deal with the research to buy a mattress. Make sure you find out what is in your mattress. If you know what is in your mattress, then you will know if it’s good for you or bad for you. [11:20] About Mattress Red Flags Metal springs are red flags. Unnatural materials are red flags. People will put fire retardants and petroleum in their mattresses. If there are things in the bed that don’t come from nature, then you don’t want it in your mattress. When you spend 1/3 of your day on your mattress, you better know what is in it! [14:25] About SAMINA Sleep    SAMINA sleep is a family business. This company was not started for a quick buck. It took over ten years to figure out the best sleep system. Hand-crafted in the Austrian Alps, SAMINA is the naturally healthy brand of luxury organic mattresses and products promoting optimal health through sleep. The company’s humble beginnings began in Austria, where SAMINA was founded in 1989. Günther W. Amann-Jennson, the company founder and current CEO, designed the organic mattresses and other SAMINA healthy sleep products to improve the quality of peoples’ lives. [22:55] The Problem With Metals Metals in the mattress and bedframes are not ideal for sleep. Metal will attract electrical fields and metal fields. The exposure comes from powerlines around your house. Also, radio frequencies are invisible from transmitting data. Metal will attract the radio frequencies. Bluetooth devices and wireless devices create radio frequencies. Walking barefoot is highly recommended to ground yourself naturally to the earth. That way, you can recharge your body. In a SAMINA bed, there is a grounding pad. Sleeping with the SAMINA system is equivalent to walking on the beach barefoot. [31:10] Noticing Results With SAMINA How often do you dream? Dreaming is an excellent self-assessment to measure your sleep. Anytime you wake up, and you remember your dream, then you had a deep sleep. When you have a deep sleep, then your body is able to recover. SAMINA has a positive impact on dreams. Oura Ring is highly recommended to measure your sleep. When you wake up in the morning, and your back hurts, then there is something wrong. [39:20] How Long A SAMINA Bed Will Last Some SAMINA items will last a lifetime. The natural rubber will need to be replaced between fifteen and twenty years. You do not throw the mattress away; you simply exchange the rubber parts. In the United States, American people throw 20 million mattresses away every year. When you replace the SAMINA rubber, you can throw it in the compost. The product is 100% authentic and natural.

Today, I am blessed to have here with me, the owner of Andreas Seed Oils, Andreas Wecker. He started Andreas Seed Oils to bring health and wellness to people through food. The right foods made up of essential fats, vitamins, and minerals must be genuinely healthy. The natural balance of these nutrients is offered in his purely pressed oils. Through his struggle with Crohn’s Disease, Andreas knew that his options were minimal, as he exhausted the means of modern medicine. The option Andreas chose was to find an alternative remedy to have a fighting chance at living. Fresh-pressed oils were the answer. His miraculous recovery by the use of oils, along with diet modification, has led Andreas to recognize that high-quality oils, perhaps of all kinds, could help others improve their overall health as well. He desires to provide a product for everyone to have the opportunity to improve their health and wellness. In this episode, Andreas dives deep into his journey to wellness. The inspiration behind his company, Andreas Seed Oils, comes from finding that fresh-pressed flaxseed oil relieved his pain from Crohn’s Disease. Andreas explains why industrial seed oils are terrible for our health. If you have seed oils prepared in the right way, they can be powerful tools. Andreas Seed Oils are cold pressed – the technology is powerful, and the seed quality is left undamaged. Stay tuned as Andreas explains the benefits of oils, and he answers questions from the Keto Kamp listeners.

In 2000, Andreas tore his bicep during training. Three days before Andreas was supposed to compete at the Sydney Games, his career was over. To cope with severe pain issues, Andreas depended on a combination of painkillers and aspirin. He stopped taking the pills, and his health began to deteriorate rapidly. In 2006, Andreas had lost 45 pounds and 80 percent of his blood supply. Doctors diagnosed him with Crohn’s Disease (CD). Andreas found that fresh-pressed flaxseed oil relieved his pain and inflammation.  [17:15] Why Industrial Oils Are Bad For Us When there is friction, there is oxidation. Many seed oil companies use methods to extract the oils that damage the oil's nutrient value. These methods include hydraulic and cold expeller pressing as well as solvent extraction. Because of the oil components' damage during these extraction methods, these oils must always be refrigerated. Andreas uses cold press technology. This technology is so delicate yet powerful that the precious nutrient qualities of the seeds are left undamaged. The result is a high-quality oil that needs no refrigeration and will last for up to a year in the kitchen cupboard. [25:40] How Seed Oils Can Help You When our body is inflamed, our immune system is overwhelmed. When we are constantly producing, our body cannot heal. Flaxseed oil is the foundation for rebuilding and repairing damaged cells. Stop consuming sugar and get more fat in the body to change the energy from sugar to fat. That way, you have a lot more energy for longer. Plus, your brain will be clearer when it runs off of fat. [28:25] About The Five Seed Oil Blend The Five Seed Oil Blend is used to increase energy levels. The blend contains pumpkin, black sesame, flax, sunflower, and coriander seed oil. In order for the oils to work, you need to eat clean. This blend is the broadest spectrum of foundational nutrients for optimal functioning organs.  It is the fuel you can supply your body at the cellular level to thrive in every way possible. You will feel a load of energy from this blend. Some people cannot take this oil in the evening because it will give you a lot of energy. However, many people find it to be calming too. [38:00] Seed Oils vs. Avocado Oils and Coconut Oils Avocado oils and coconut oils are rarely pressed in the right way. Andreas wants to press coconut oils in the future. Plus, when the oils are in plastic containers, it will be bad. Did you know that you can cook with the seed oils too? Andreas uses the sunflower and sesame oils when cooking - they are perfect for high temperatures! You will have the cleanest foods when you cook with these oils. AND MUCH MORE!

Today, I am grateful to have here with me, Chantel Ray. She runs a multi-million-dollar real estate company. Chantel is not a medical doctor or a nutritionist; she actually has a degree in mathematics.  Chantel Ray is the President and Founder of Chantel Ray Real Estate, a Virginia based company with 6 locations. She is extremely active in her church and community, hosting weekly Bible studies in her home, speaking at events to support and inspire other local business owners, and partnering with local charities to help those in need. Chantel has spent the past ten years interviewing over 1000 women to crack the code to lasting weight loss. Her book is the result of these interviews, her countless hours spent studying the Bible on this topic, and her real life journey. She believes she has discovered the secret sauce to weight loss and can't wait to share it with you. In this episode, Chantel Ray reveals her dieting journey and how she finally figured out the secret to weight loss. Chantel describes her FIRES Principle and explains that hara hachi bu means to stop eating when you’re 80% full. Plus, Chantel says to make sure that you are eating slow, appreciating your food, and being intentional. Stay tuned as Chantel dives into the correlation between fasting and your thyroid.  // 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. ☕️ Purity Coffee: http//:www.ketokampcoffee.com, use ketokamp at checkout for 10% off [00:40] About Chantel Ray Chantel tried every diet under the sun. She got frustrated and would just ask women what they eat for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Chantel realized that all of them did intermittent fasting, but they didn’t know they did it.   [04:00] About the FIRES Principle F – Fasting I – Identify true hunger R – Reducing sugar E – Enjoying real food without deprivation S – Stop before you’re full Hara hachi bu is a teaching that says you should stop eating when you’re 80% full. Americans eat until they are 105% full. If you like to eat fast, work hard to slow down.   [10:30] What Happens To The Thyroid While Fasting Fasting puts stress on your body. When you are in a place where you are under high stress, then fasting may not be the right fit for you. Chantel has had massive amounts of problems with her thyroid. A lot of it has to do with hormones. Certain days Chantel can fast, and she does great. However, the time of the month is such a big piece of fasting. Your hormones play a big piece to your fasting. When you try to fast the week before your period it is a recipe for disaster.   [20:45] How To Support The Thyroid You need iodine for the thyroid to function. If fasting is not working for you, there could be five issues going on: You are taking some sort of medication that is making you feel bad. You are missing out on certain supplements. Your hormones are out of whack. Your blood sugar levels are out of whack. Electrolytes are low. Get to the root cause of why you can’t fast.   [25:30] The Importance of Eating Intentionally   Eating too many carbs and sugar will pack on pounds and make you feel terrible. Chantel reduces the amount of carbs and sugars that she eats throughout the day. If there’s something that she really wants, then she only takes three bites. It’s essential to understand your body and your hormones. If you want something, then be intentional about it.   [29:00] Advice For Fasting Skeptics   When Chantel first started fasting, she didn’t lose a single pound for three weeks. After three weeks, Chantel lost six pounds. With fasting, you are building more muscle and losing fat. So, you won’t be seeing results on the scale. For Chantel, she is able to keep her weight steady using fasting. Fasting is a lifestyle change, not a lose weight quick scheme.   AND MUCH MORE!   Resources from this episode: Check out Chantel’s Website Follow Chantel Ray: Instagram Facebook Groups Twitter YouTube Get Chantel’s Books Read Waist Away: The Chantel Ray Way: The Inspirational Way to Lose Weight Through Intermittent Fasting Listen to Waist Away: The Intermittent Fasting & Weight Loss Podcast Listen to 276: Keto vs. Fasting, Taking Supplements While Fasting, Food To Break Your Fast, Flex Days & More with Ben Azadi!

A new study from JAMA shows no weight loss benefit from intermittent fasting. This study shows no benefit from fasting. This video points out 5 flaws with the study. STUDY: Effects of Time-Restricted Eating on Weight Loss and Other Metabolic Parameters in Women and Men With Overweight and Obesity LINK: https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamainternalmedicine/article-abstract/2771095 Join my fasting webinar: http://www.benazadiwebinar.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. ☕️ Purity Coffee: http//:www.ketokampcoffee.com, use ketokamp at checkout for 10% off The headline suggests that fasting doesn’t work, and can cause muscle loss. What is the primary use for intermittent fasting? Health. Weight loss is a byproduct of good health. The point of fasting is NOT weight loss. The goal is metabolic freedom. The goal is to burn body fat, not sugar. Most people are sugar burners. 75%+ are sugar burners. 5 FLAW WITH THIS STUDY... 1: They didn’t change the fasting schedule. 116 obese individuals for 12 weeks. They followed a 16/8 schedule, which is only one way to practice fasting. 16 hours should be the bare minimum as this is how long it takes to process food. A study at the University of Virginia showed it took 14 hours just for 800 calories to enter the small intestine. The 8 hour eating window. How many times did they eat? They didn’t track. If they grazed for 8 hours then they kept insulin up, the bully of the block. Corporate worker analogy. It is not enough time for healing. Adaption is key with fasting, and health. Think about the greatest fitness trainers in the world, they always change up the routine. This study did NOT change the routine. 2: Cookie cutter approach to intermittent fasting. The age range was 18-64 years old and fasting should be different for men vs women and dependent on age. We know that cycling women should not fast 5-7 days before their period. Did they account for this? I’ve seen men do better with intermittent fasting than women. Post menopausal need more feasting. None of this was taken into account. 3: Didn’t educate these participants on what to eat during their eating window. Participants were randomized such that the consistent meal timing (CMT) group was instructed to eat 3 structured meals per day, and the time-restricted eating (TRE) group was instructed to eat ad libitum from 12:00 pm until 8:00 pm and completely abstain from caloric intake from 8:00 pm until 12:00 pm the following day. During their 8 hour eating window they were encouraged to eat ad libitum. Well the pancreas is designed to output insulin twice per day, if they ate throughout the entire 8 hours this would not be good. If you eat like crap, you will create cellular inflammation. Cellular inflammation will prevent weight loss. When you have cellular inflammation, your fat burning hormones cannot do their job. 4: They didn’t keto adapt them beforehand. We want to teach the body to burn fat first, otherwise fasting can have negative effects. Fasting is a muscle. If you are a couch potato and decide to do CrossFit, you results will be bad. Teach the body to burn fast FIRST, then pair intermittent fasting. Wallet to bank account analogy. This is a problem because the body will burn protein and muscle to fulfill the brains desire for glucose, via gluconeogensis. 5: Did these participants have any underlying health conditions? Toxicity such as heavy metals Insulin resistance Diabetes They didn’t do comprehensive lab work on them, just basic testing. If these participants had underlying issues, then those should be addressed WITH fasting. What about muscle loss? This can happen, but this is junk muscle and protein. We build back stronger with healthier muscle. // R E S O U R C E S 😴 My Recommended Sleep Products: https://kit.co/ketokamp/keto-kamp-sle... ➡️The World's Best Olive Oil | Get a $39 Bottle For a $1: http://www.ketokampoliveoil.com ☕Healthiest Coffee: http://www.ketokampcoffee.com Use "ketokamp" for 10% off ➡️Keto Kamp Apparel: http://www.ketokampgear.com 🎓Want to become a keto and fasting pro?
