Want to learn how to start the ketogenic diet? Don't know where to start? This episode will give you the basics of ketosis and eating keto. Welcome to the Body Mind Empowerment Podcast with Siim Land. Today I wanted to talk about nutrition and ketosis in particular. In a nutshell - Ketosis is a metabolic state, in which the body has shifted from using glucose as the primary fuel source for supplying its energy demands with ketone bodies. You can induce ketosis by fasting for around 3 days or by eating a low carb ketogenic diet with around 30-50 grams NET carbohydrates per day for several weeks There are many benefits to ketosis, such as improved biomarkers, reduced inflammation, mental clarity, more energy, easier fat loss and anti-aging I’ve been doing keto for almost 3 years and I must say it has drastically increased my ability to stay energized and focused for long periods of time without having to eat or get sidetracked by hunger Listen to this episode to discover How to get into ketosis How to know you're in ketosis How to combat the "keto flu" What are the common mistakes beginners make All that and much more...

Don't know how to stay disciplined and consistent with your goals? No longer...listen to this podcast to win the psychological warfare of your mind and resistance.   "I know what I need to do...but why am I not doing it?" Like I said, you know what you need to do but you’re not doing it. Why is that? Well... It might be because of inflammatory foods that cloud your thinking, It might be because of a poor night’s sleep, It might even be because of some past mental traumas that make you self-sabotage your own success. But honestly... I believe those things can all be transcended with some good old discipline. This topic is somewhat near and dear to me because it’s one of the personality traits I can always rely on and that’s exactly what we’re going to be talking about in today’s Body Mind Empowerment Podcast with Siim Land. We're going to talk about How come disciplined people are so disciplined What is the essence of self-discipline How to cultivate indomitable self-discipline How to stay disciplined with a 3 stage method   And much more...

Have you wondered what are the physical limitations of your body? How much stress could you handle without losing it? How much exercise could you do without fainting? How many days could you go without getting hungry? Evolutionarily, our bodies are adaptation machines Our bodies get used to a whole range of stressors and stimuli that actually make us stronger and healthier than before. Intermittent fasting is a nutritional strategy that incorporates periods of food abstinence with feasting.  There are many reason people do intermittent fasting, starting with weight loss and ending with anti-aging.

Imagine being in the middle of freakin nowhere - cold, harsh wilderness Would you be able to survive? Will you die? Or can you become a stronger version of yourself? That's what every life form on this planet has had to deal with - early life on Earth was hazardous and it posed some severe adaptation mechanisms on all that was to survive. Charles Darwin said in On the Origin of the Species: It is not the strongest or the most intelligent of the species that survives. It is the one that is most adaptable to change. That’s what we’ll be talking about in today’s Body Mind Empowerment podcast. I’m your host Siim Land and the topics I’m going to cover right now include physical as well as psychological adaptation in the form of hormesis.  The biological phenomenon to this is called ’HORMESIS’, which comes from the Greek word hórmēsis and it means ‘rapid motion, eagerness’ or ‘to set in motion.' I'm going to talk about How does hormesis work Examples of hormesis Foods that trigger hormesis Hormesis and anti-aging How much stress is too much Hormesis and Antifragility   Make sure you subscribe and share it with someone who could use this information!
