Also, fasting is free and time-efficient. The whole world can do fasting; they just need to learn what it’s about. Fasting is this healing response that the world is catching on to now because it's as powerful a healing tool as sleep. Every religion disagrees on everything except fasting. Overall, fasting transforms people physically, spiritually, and emotionally.  The Importance of Having A Balance Between Feasting and Fasting  People need to understand that symptoms should be read and acknowledged. Women have three primary sex hormones that drive their behaviors, sleep, and mental state. Estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone need vastly different things. Fasting is a tool that should be used with proper feasting; you should be able to go in and out of ketosis. When feasting, remember to eat based on the season. No healthy culture ever stays on the same diet because they can't. Our genes and our microbiome are set up to change diets, whether it be weekly, monthly, or seasonally.  What Are The Health Benefits of Ketosis?  Your brain gets so many benefits from ketosis. Almost two-thirds of the population are experiencing cognitive decline. Your brain loves ketones. For decades, people have been put on a keto diet to fix neurodegenerative diseases. Ketones are a tool for regenerating the brain. With fasting and ketosis, you hit therapeutic levels that you can't hit, just being in ketosis. Your brain needs these ketones to heal. Plus, ketosis will change the microbiome and increase diversity. Lastly, ketosis will help turn off bad genes due to stressful living.  How Important Is Gratitude?  The most crucial fasting tool is gratitude. Every time you say thank you to someone, you are releasing oxytocin which brings down cortisol. When cortisol comes down, insulin is easier to regulate, and your sex hormones will be a piece of cake. If you don’t fix the cell, you won’t get well. Gratitude will decrease cellular inflammation. When your inflammation is reduced, your cellular function will increase, which will help you feel good. Overall, gratitude is a free tool that you can use!  What We Talked About: How does fasting improve your keto results?   Dr. Pompa shares a story about using fasting on a cancer patient  Why you need to have a feasting and fasting balance The best studies around fasting  What are the health benefits of ketosis?

What would you prioritize to ensure optimal health for someone without a period for so long? Resources Mentioned In This Episode Dr Mindy Pelz & Ben Azadi Part 1: https://ketokamp.libsyn.com/dr-mindy-pelz-ben-azadi Squatty Potty https://www.squattypotty.com/ Xerneplex Suppository https://remedylink.com/product/xeneplex/ Remedy Link Castor Oil Stickers https://remedylink.com/product/castorpatch/ Book: Undoctored https://amzn.to/3KNEXMZ Can Pregnant Women Practice Intermittent Fasting? No, pregnant women should not practice intermittent fasting. If you’re throwing up and you can’t eat, then in some sense, you are fasting. However, your number one priority should be nutrition. Find food that you don’t throw up. There are other tools that you can magnify once you are pregnant. For instance, you will pass down your microbiome to your child. So, you need to understand what supports a healthy microbiome. Pregnancy is an excellent time for fermented foods. Also, keep in mind what you are putting on your skin; make sure all your products are very clean. Overall, there are tons to unpack for the pregnant woman to have a healthy pregnancy, and fasting is not the tool you want to be leaning into. How Often Should You Check Your Ketone Levels? Ben doesn’t check his ketone levels because he has been doing keto since 2013. So, he knows when he is in ketosis vs. when he’s not in ketosis. When you’re starting keto, it can be a valuable tool to know whether or not you are genuinely in ketosis. Many people will test their urine because it is the cheapest option; however, urine testing is not the best. When your cells use ketones, they will not spill out in your urine. While on the other hand, breath meters are hit or miss. Ben recommends Biosense if you are interested in testing your ketones through breath. https://mybiosense.com/ All in all, a blood ketone test will give you glucose and ketones levels. If you’re 0.5 or higher, then you are in ketosis. Test your ketones for a month or two. Eventually, you won’t need to test anymore.    Keto vs. Carnivore: Which Diet Is Best For You?    Carnivore is technically keto because when you’re doing carnivore, you are in ketosis. Both diets are good options, but Ben says to try keto first. Keto is low carb, but it’s not zero carbs like a carnivore diet. If you go from 150 grams of carbs to zero, that’s going to feel challenging. However, going from keto to carnivore isn’t as challenging for you. Many people have naturally started carnivore diets because they plateaued on keto. Carnivore can be a great natural transition to try something new and change things up for your body. We don’t need motivation; instead, we need momentum. All in all, carnivore can be an accessible version of keto if you want something simple to do. Intermittent Fasting: Is It Safe For Your Children?  Fasting isn't a fad; fasting is a primal way our body approaches food. Children live in a human body and have the same primal need to go through periods without food. Sadly, we beat that sense out of them. We tell kids to eat breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Then, they aren't allowed to eat after dinner. Dr. Mindy says to watch the natural rhythms of your children's hunger levels. Do they wake up happy, or do they wake up crazy hungry? If they're happy, you can easily go an hour or two before feeding them. Make sure you are learning their natural rhythms. We need to tap into our children's natural time-restricted eating. Overall, don't push food on them when they may not be hungry.  Should You Do Keto If You Don’t Have A Gallbladder? Gallbladder removal surgery is one of the top surgeries in the United States. Many people think that the gallbladder is what produces bile to break down fat and detoxify. In reality, the gallbladder is more of a storage house for the bile. The liver produces bile. Bile is a beautiful green substance that helps you break down fat and detoxify. If you don’t have a gallbladder and you start to do keto, the liver needs to make up for the absence of the gallbladder. If your liver can’t keep up with the fat, that’s where issues will occur. You may experience diarrhea and stomach issues. So, you must go low and slow and eat small and frequent meals. Eventually, your liver will adapt so you can do regular keto and intermittent fasting.  Check out Dr. Mindy’s Website: https://drmindypelz.com Follow Dr. Mindy Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/drmindypelz Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dr.mindypelz/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/drmindypelz YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/DrMindyPelz/featured Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/drmindypelz/ Register for my upcoming 90 day detox program: http://www.ketokampdetox.com (1 spot left!) / / E P I S O D E   S P ON S O R S  Paleo Valley beef sticks, apple cider vinegar complex, organ meat complex & more.

Once you understand how to treat your partner the way they want to be treated, your love life will have vast improvements. Susan explains the differences between libido, desire, and arousal. Then, Susan dives into oxytocin and how this hormone is a game-changer for your mental wellbeing and sex life. Tune in as we chat about nitric oxide, and Susan gives recommendations for sex toys that will spice up your bedroom life.  Register for my upcoming 90 day detox program: http://www.ketokampdetox.com (2 SPOTS LEFT!) / / E P I S O D E   S P ON S O R S  Paleo Valley beef sticks, apple cider vinegar complex, organ meat complex & more.

She is an intimacy expert to millions. One of Susan’s focuses is turning sex into making love.  Plus, she stands for ageless sexuality.  Sex techniques and bedroom communication skills will be critical to spicing up your bedroom life.  There are a lot of myths and misunderstandings around our sexuality and how it works. Until you understand the opposite sex, you are going to be treating your partner the way that you want to be treated. However, you should treat your partner the way they want to be treated.  [10:40] Libido, Desire, and Arousal: Improving Your Passionate Lovemaking  Sexuality is an extensive and vast subject matter. You can improve your passionate lovemaking by understanding the differences between libido, desire, and arousal.  Libido is your lust for sex.  Desire is your self-worth and body image; do you feel desirable and do you desire your partner?  Arousal has to do with the human operating system.  The entire vulva can be activated to be as orgasmic as the tip of the clitoris. A good lover can expand the pleasure palette in the whole vulva.  Men should be chronically horny and have erections when they wake up. [23:20] The Love Chemical: How The Hormone Oxytocin Is Related To Sex Oxytocin is a hormone, and it’s generated by touch.  Birthing mothers emit oxytocin to bond their babies to them when the baby is born. Oxytocin is often called the love chemical and the bonding molecule.  Also, oxytocin gives you empathy and makes you like people better.  You can get more oxytocin through food, supplements, and touching.  [34:30] Regulate Blood Flow Throughout Your Body With Nitric Oxide  Nitric oxide is the gaseous signaling molecule that tells your vascular system to squeeze or relax and to send the blood where it needs to go.  Squeezing and relaxing begin to get brittle as you age from atherosclerosis or clogged arteries.  If you have clogged arteries and low nitric oxide production, then there will be sexual problems. You need leafy green vegetables, beetroot, cabbage, dill, arugula, romaine, and spinach shard.  Susan recommends taking FLOW. It is a blood flow supplement made from organic fruits and vegetables.  [45:20] The Very Best Sex Toys For Both Men and Women The first sex toy a woman needs is a Womanizer, an air stimulator.  The Womanizer does the sucking and blowing on the clitoral shaft and tip. Many women swear by the Womanizer as their favorite way to orgasm. Find Womanizer products here: https://www.womanizer.com/us/ The second sex toy is a vibrator. Susan recommends We-Vibe Tango: https://www.we-vibe.com/us/tango   Another vibrator to check out is AMO - Bullet Vibrator: https://www.hotoctopuss.com/sex-toys/female-sex-toys/amo-the-powerful-focused-bullet-vibrator/ KURVE is excellent for targeting your G-spot: https://www.hotoctopuss.com/sex-toys/female-sex-toys/kurve-vulva-female-luxury-gspot-vibrator Get precise G-spot stimulation with POCO: https://mysteryvibe.com/products/poco MANTA vibrating stroker for men: https://us.funfactory.com/products/manta AND MUCH MORE!

Who Can You Trust When It Comes To Experts In The Health Space?  If the person we're seeking to learn from uses derogatory language when speaking about those with whom they disagree, that is the sign of a petty person. Experts should have discussions politely and respectfully and acknowledge that there is room for disagreement. There ought to be a degree of skepticism that we apply to every authority. We should challenge that authority to some degree. There are people with Ph.D. degrees who we shouldn’t trust. Overall, we should always be on our own journey to understand what is accurate and true.  A Basic Understanding of Ketosis  Ketosis is the state where blood ketones are elevated, but pH is normal. Every human has some amount of ketones, even if it's below the detection level on commonly used devices. When you’re in ketosis, you will have a detectable level of ketones on a moderately used device and yet pH is not changing. Ketones have the potential to make the body more acidic. When someone's in ketosis, the amount of hydrogens coming off the ketone is relatively modest. Within the blood, there are numerous buffering mechanisms. That way, your body will defend its pH range. Overall, ketones are fat-burning products; when insulin is low, the body will burn fat at a high rate.  90 Day Detox Program with Ben Azadi, Dr Mindy Pelz, Dr Daniel Pompa & other detox specialists.

Plus, ketones are signaling molecules. If a ketone is being used as a fuel, it will come to a cell. Then the ketone will get shuttled into the cell through an MCT (monocarboxylate transporter). When the mitochondria have a lot of pressure to be burning molecules, they get the signal that they need more mitochondria. Fatty acids can have the same effect. When a cell is burning a lot of fatty acids for fuel, it will start stimulating mitochondrial biogenesis.  Why The Laws of Thermodynamics Are Misleading Regarding Weight Loss People are producing ketones and breathing out ketones, and urinating them out. Remember, ketones have a caloric value. Calories matter, but don’t worry about them. Let the calories take care of themselves. Invoking the laws of thermodynamics in nutrition and human metabolism was one of the greatest tragedies in the history of human-relevant science. It absolutely misled us and made us demonize fat and embrace carbohydrates. Hormones matter at least as much as calories because hormones tell the body's cells what to do with the available calories.  The Problems With Metabolic Syndrome and Insulin Resistance  Metabolic syndrome used to be called insulin resistance syndrome. Insulin resistance is the single most common problem in the US and abroad. Plus, insulin resistance is relevant to virtually every chronic disease. Covid has only made metabolic problems worse. Luckily, keto and intermittent fasting can help lower insulin. Remember, there is no insulin resistance without elevated insulin. Lowering insulin is a perfect way to help the body become more sensitive to it. If no nutrients are coming into the blood, insulin starts running out of nutrients in the blood that it can store away. So, insulin comes down when nutrients aren’t coming into the blood. Fasting is the best way to lower your insulin and reverse metabolic syndrome.  Resources From This Episode:  HLTH Code Shakes: https://gethlth.com/?rfsn=5941390.8775c2 (use code “ketokamp”) Why We Get Sick: https://www.amazon.com/Why-We-Get-Sick-Disease_and/dp/194883698X/benazadi-20 Dr. Bikman on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/benbikmanphd/ Dr. Bikman on Twitter: https://twitter.com/BenBikmanPhD Follow Keto Kamp on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUh_MOM621MvpW_HLtfkLyQ Get Keto Flex: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08YFM83DD/benazadi-20 90 Day Detox Program with Ben Azadi, Dr Mindy Pelz, Dr Daniel Pompa & other detox specialists.

Today, I am blessed to have Kristina Hess with me for the third time! Kristina is a premier health coach and licensed dietitian/nutritionist who works with clients to support them in making lifestyle changes that produce real and lasting results. Keto Symposium: https://www.ketosymposium.com/ (use code: BEN10)  Kristina has a master’s degree in clinical nutrition and Integrative Health from MUIH - Maryland University for Integrative Health and several certifications in areas ranging from Mindful Eating, Heartmath, to Ericksonian Hypnosis to Sports Nutrition. Kristina received her health coach certification from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition. Kristina's integrative and functional approach is an arm within the Functional Medicine model of the IFM. Functional Medicine views us all as being different, genetically and biochemically unique. A functional approach is deeply science-based and views everything that happens within us as a connected network or web of relationships. Kristina's private practice in Connecticut is called Thrive Results Coaching. In this episode, Kristina joins the show to talk about the Keto Symposium - the first keto conference and expo in New York City. Then, Kristina dives into genes and how having genetic nutrition testing done can impact your lifestyle decisions. Kristina reveals her top three favorite keto diets and explains which is best for you, depending on your genetic makeup. Tune in as we chat about counting calories, time-restricted feeding, and the importance of experimenting with your lifestyle and diet.  Register for my upcoming 90 day detox program: http://www.ketokampdetox.com (3 SPOTS LEFT!) / / E P I S O D E   S P ON S O R S  Paleo Valley beef sticks, apple cider vinegar complex, organ meat complex & more.

If you are not getting the desired results, you may want to test your genes.  When you know what genes you have, you can empower what you are doing in your lifestyle.  [15:55] Time-Restricted Eating: Try Reducing Your Feeding Window For Weight Loss Results  You should be done eating by 7 pm each night. The earlier you eat, the more insulin sensitive you become, the better your metabolic health markers, and the more weight you lose.  If you struggle to lose weight, try eating breakfast and cutting your feeding window at 3 pm.  When you are stuck, pivoting your mealtime will be essential to get the desired results.  [30:20] The Top Three Keto Meal Plans That Can Work For You  Kristina recommends a Mediterranean-style keto diet with a focus on fish, olive oil, and lean protein, with some sheep and goat dairy.  The Mediterranean-style diet works best for people who have APOE variants.  Another keto diet that works well is paleo.  The paleo diet includes red meat, no dairy, a lot of eggs, bacon, squash, and sweet potatoes.  Lastly, a carnivore diet can work for you. This diet includes a lot of fatty protein!  [34:40] What You Need To Know About Genetic Nutrition Testing  The test is $360. Your kit will come to your house, and you will provide a sample of saliva. Then, mail the kit back, and you will have results in about a month.  Unfortunately, knowing what to do with the report is challenging once you have it.

For instance, your sleep will affect your caloric expenditure.  Also, gut health and mitochondrial health will change your caloric expenditure. The body is complex, beautiful, and intricate - counting calories doesn’t take that into consideration.  The most important thing to remember is to eat real foods instead of processed foods.  [43:00] Many People Don’t Even Know That They Are In Ketosis  Many very lean people out there are inadvertently in ketosis and then just have no idea. Lean people will bash the keto lifestyle without knowing whether they are in ketosis or not. If you struggle with your weight, then you need to work on getting into ketosis because your body is not naturally gravitating there.  Remember, keto is not a high-fat diet; keto is a metabolic process.  AND MUCH MORE!   Resources from this episode:  Check out The Keto Nutritionist: https://theketonutritionist.com Keto Symposium: https://www.ketosymposium.com/ (use code: BEN10)  Follow Kristina Hess Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kristinahessketonutritionist/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/kristinahessketonutritionist/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kristina-hess-cns-ldn-chc-15a1984/ Keto Kamp 104: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/kristina-hess-ms-uncommon-benefits-of-ketones-the/id1470779784?i=1000465314376 Keto Kamp 305: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/kristina-hess-health-complications-from-insulin-resistance/id1470779784?i=1000534204433 Join the Keto Kamp Academy: https://ketokampacademy.com/7-day-trial-a Watch Keto Kamp on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUh_MOM621MvpW_HLtfkLyQ Register for my upcoming 90 day detox program: http://www.ketokampdetox.com  / / E P I S O D E   S P ON S O R S  Paleo Valley beef sticks, apple cider vinegar complex, organ meat complex & more.

Today, I am blessed to have here with me Dr. John Demartini. He is a polymath and a world-renowned human behavior expert. Students have described his work as the "most comprehensive body of work” and "an extensive library of wisdom.” Dr. John Demartini's mission and vision is to share knowledge and wisdom that empowers you to become a master of your own life and destiny. He's an internationally published author, a global educator, and the founder of the Demartini Method, a revolutionary tool in modern psychology. His education curriculum ranges from personal growth seminars to corporate empowerment programs. His teachings synthesize knowledge and wisdom from the greatest minds through history, and his curriculum is designed to help you empower and inspire all seven areas of your life. In this episode, Dr. Demartini joins the show to talk about how symptoms are your body’s way of telling you something is wrong. When you have a symptom, your body tries to guide you on moderating your behavior and living wisely. Tough conversations can even lead to symptoms; for instance, your sympathetic nervous system activates during a problematic confrontation, and blood sugar increases. Tune in as we chat about why judging people harms your health and how the right job can be great for your cardiovascular system.

Instead, you should eat to perform at your peak.  You won’t have symptoms out of the blue when you eat moderately quality foods. You can always trace your symptoms to a reason.  Sadly, we have overlooked what the body’s wisdom is.  The Wisdom of The Body: https://www.amazon.com/Wisdom-Body-Walter-B-Cannon/dp/0393002055/benazadi-20 [08:55] How The Sympathetic Nervous System Can Increase Blood Sugar Doctors are notorious for asking diabetes patients not to eat sugar and gain weight. However, these patients don’t often want to be told what to do.  During these tough conversations, when someone has their sympathetic nervous system activated their blood sugar increases.  Sadly, we don’t give people their accountability back to change their health.  You can get a biochemical imbalance because you store up psychological issues that keep affecting hormones and transmitters.  [28:50] You Can Take Control of Your Own Recovery and Your Own Life  Take command of your life. Find alternatives to your health problems. There is no reason to exclude a health alternative.  Love, Medicine and Miracles: Lessons Learned about Self-Healing from a Surgeon's Experience with Exceptional Patients: https://www.amazon.com/Love-Medicine-Miracles-Self-Healing-Exceptional/dp/0060919833/benazadi-20 Overall, patients can participate in their own recovery.  [44:25] The Right Job Is Good For Your Health and Cardiovascular Risk Most people have the Monday morning blues.  Sadly, many people are not inspired by their work. If you have an imbalance in cytokines, your immune system responds. You will have serious problems if your sympathetic and parasympathetic are out of balance.  When someone is inspired by their work, their heart rate variability increases, their cytokines are normal, their blood pressure is down, and they don’t have any cardiovascular risk.  [50:40] Why Judging Other People Is Harmful To Your Health  When you look up to people, you minimize yourself, and your parasympathetic system dominates.  When you look down on people and resent them, you exaggerate yourself, and your sympathetic system dominates.  Whenever you judge, you feel empty.  Instead, we want to feel fulfilled; love fulfills.

The inflammation after an acute injury is the first step of the healing process. So, why would you want to ice down an inflamed joint? If you do that, you are fighting what the body is trying to do. If you ice down a joint, it takes longer to heal, but you also increase your risk of winding up with a chronic disability. The second type of inflammation is called inappropriate chronic inflammation. This type of inflammation is caused by lifestyle choices and diet. Your weight will come off when you change nutrition, and your inflammation will decrease. Then, you’ll feel more motivated to exercise. Learn all about Dr Berry, and Ken Berry proper human diet which is his new book. Dr Ken Berry proper human diet is one of the best anti inflammatory diets you can follow. -------------------------------------------------------- / / E P I S O D E   S P ON S O R S  BiOptimizers Kapex Special Offer: www.kenergize.com/ketokamp Use the code  ketokamp10 for 10% off 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 The Meat Mafia. The Meat Mafia officially began in January 2022 with one mission: to share their wealth of practical experiences in transforming their health through an active, animal-based lifestyle. Animal-based living emphasizes the elimination of processed foods and the consumption of whole natural foods. As the name suggests, most of these foods come from animal sources, from beef to honey. In their belief, locally sourced animal-based foods optimize personal and planetary health. In this episode, The Meat Mafia speak about their health issues and how eating a carnivore diet helped Brett reverse his ulcerative colitis and improved Harrison’s inflammatory skin problems. Then, the guys jump straight into stigmas around eating an animal-based diet and how the health of our environment actually depends on regenerative agriculture and ruminating animals. Tune in as we chat about finding the best sources for your animal-based diet and what you need to know about buying meat from the grocery store.

Colitis is an autoimmune disease that affects your large intestine, which is your colon. You can’t really process any food with ulcerative colitis. Doctors tell you that colitis is an incurable disease. After listening to Dr. Shawn Baker on Joe Rogan’s podcast, Brett changed his life forever. Listen to the episode here: https://open.spotify.com/episode/2auwtVto0sG7OcZ0hs3aOP?si=VF4iKaIcRvS_gar_nJrZ1g. Brett experimented with the carnivore diet, and he noticed all the bloating in his stomach was gone, his skin cleared up, and his energy improved. [15:10] A Keto Lifestyle Can Reduce Symptoms of Inflammatory Skin Problems Harrison’s first interaction with the healthcare system was from skin problems. His cystic acne had everything to do with his terrible diet. Ultimately, Harrison got on Accutane. Harrison tried the paleo diet during his first year of college, and his athletic training and energy levels improved. After trying keto, Harrison lost ten pounds in a matter of weeks. [29:10] The Health Grasslands and The Health of Ruminate Animals Are Interconnected There are still stigmas around red meat being a staple of healthy nutritional diets. Also, people don’t discuss animals’ role in restoring soil quality. Anti-meat people will gravitate toward the harmful practices of agriculture. However, there are ways to raise animals that improve the soil. The Meat Mafia likes to go to farms and learn stories about practicing regenerative agriculture. Check out Roam Ranch as an example: http://roamranch.com/ [34:20] Find A Local Farmer’s Market To Support The Best System Possible Here are some resources to check out about local food sources: Wild Food Sources: https://www.wildfoods.co/ Shire: https://shireapp.io/ Beef Initiative Food Intelligence Summit: https://beefinitiative.com/ Find a farmer’s market in your area and ask if they utilize regenerative practices. When you support local farmers, you’re supporting the right system, and you can nourish your family with the best quality protein possible. [40:55] Health Is Not An Expense; Health Is An Investment If you can’t afford meat from a local farmer, you can still eat the meat at a grocery store. Always do what is best for you and your budget. Eating stuff in the grocery store’s outer aisle will make you healthier than 99% of the population. However, supporting local farms is healthier for the supply chain and you. When you nourish the body with the proper nutrients, it will be an investment in your health. [43:05] What To Know About Shopping For Meat In The Grocery Store You need your beef to be pasture raised and 100% grass-fed. When you look at chicken and pork, they are fed corn and soy diets. If possible, steer towards a beef-based diet. Also, make sure your eggs are pasture-raised. Be careful about the marketing tricks that companies use. They could write “vegetarian fed.” In reality, that means they are being fed corn and soy. AND MUCH MORE!
