Lets discuss cholesterol - with Dr. Eric Westman
Send us a textYou've probably heard for many years -- maybe even all your life -- that saturated fat raises your cholesterol level and that this clogs your arteries. But is this actually true?Believe it or not, even though this has been the "conventional thinking" for a long time, it's based on highly flawed science and it doesn't fit the evidence. Cutting back on saturated fat in your diet has never been shown to prevent heart attacks, strokes, or other cardiovascular problems.Breaking Free from Narcissistic AbuseWhen love turns toxic, this podcast helps you make sense of the chaos and start to heal.Listen on: Apple Podcasts Spotify

The Link Between Diet and Cancer - Interview with Dr. Christy Kesslering
Send us a textThere are so many myths about cancer: which specific foods and lifestyle habits increase or decrease risk, how much family history matters...Is it true that "sugar feeds cancer?"

And what about exercise? You don't need to exercise to lose weight, but what's the impact on cancer?It's hard to know what to believe and who to trust. Watch this conversation between Dr. Westman and board-certified radiation oncologist Christy Kesslering, MD, as they dispel common cancer myths and talk about the role of metabolic health in cancer risk and treatment outcomes.#lowcarb #ketodiet #ketogenicdiet #cancer #cancerdiet #preventcancer #healthyketo #healthyliving #dietBreaking Free from Narcissistic AbuseWhen love turns toxic, this podcast helps you make sense of the chaos and start to heal.Listen on: Apple Podcasts Spotify

Dr. Westman Reviews: Pork Rinds vs Veggie Chips
Send us a textDr. Westman Reviews: Pork Rinds vs Veggie ChipsWhen done properly, keto diets typically control appetite and reduce hunger so well that people tend to eat less without even trying. They’re also able to go much longer between meals without feeling a need to snack. But since we’re only human and many of us enjoy a crunchy snack now and then – or sometimes something crunchy as part of a meal – which is better if you’re following a low-carb or keto diet – pork rinds or veggie chips?Check out Dr. Westman’s latest video to hear his opinion on pork rinds (a.k.a. chicharrones) versus veggie chips or veggie straws, which are typically marketed as “healthy.”FREE GUIDE � Start Keto Righthttps://adaptyourlifeacademy.com/start-keto-right-bonus/

Dr. Westman reviews: Almond flour
Send us a textWhen people find Dr. Westman and learn about his method for doing keto, they’re often surprised that the food list he’s been using in his clinic for twenty years doesn’t include nuts. That means no nut flours or nut butters, either. These things aren’t bad for you, but they’re very common “trigger” foods – for many people, once they start eating them, they can’t stop. (If your serving size of nut butter is half a jar, you’re not alone! 😆) Not only does the fat add up quickly that way, but so do the carbs! Overdoing fat and carbs often stands in the way of weight loss and improving your health. Watch Dr. Westman’s latest video for more on why nut flours are not part of his approach to keto.Sign up for our start keto right challenge here 👇https://adaptyourlifeacademy.com/start-keto-right-challenge/
