Dr Sean O'Mara | 5 Sneaky Ways Your Body Stores Visceral Fat & How to Get Rid of Stubborn Belly Fat For Good! KKP: 658

Today, I am blessed to have here with me Dr. Sean O'Mara. He is the world's leading health and performance-optimizing physician, providing individuals with safe and natural strategies to improve the human body and performance. Dr. O’Mara grew up in an average family. He went to public schools and worked to save enough money for college. He studied law enforcement first and then went on to study law. However, he still has a passion for science and medicine, leading him to medical school. At the age of 45, he is overweight. And on top of that, he is suffering from numerous medical conditions. One of his patients told him about the paleo diet, which he tried, and soon found out that not only did he lose weight, but his health also got better. Furious by realizing that conventional medicine cares for people and propagates diseases to make money, Dr.O’Mara decided to be a researcher to know why his lifestyle change positively impacts disease. Dr. O’Mara’s passion is optimizing human beings by helping individuals eliminate their visceral fat and reap a healthier and better life. In this episode, Dr.O’Mara talks about the paleo and ketogenic diet and why you should have a zero-carbohydrate diet. He also discusses what visceral fat is, the contributors that led to a higher amount of this fat, and how you could eliminate it. He also mentions how you can have a healthy microbiome and why you should focus on restoring your metabolic health and microbiome. Tune in as we chat about the visceral fat, microbiome, carbohydrates, carnivore diet, and more!

[21:29] Paleo To Ketogenic Diet: The Power Of Zero-Carbohydrate Diet - Dr.O’Mara started his health journey with a low-carb paleo diet. But when he changed to a ketogenic diet, his performance improved more. - Dr.O’Mara encourages people to try the keto diet. - He maintained a carnivore diet during his military deployment and realized he had significantly improved. - Every time Dr.O’Mara tries to go back and have some carbohydrates, he would have joint and back pains. - Fermenting vegetables for an extended period of time eliminates their carbohydrates, making it possible to still eat vegetables. [34:47] Want To Have a Healthy Microbiome? Have A Diverse Diet - A healthy microbiome is a diverse one. - It is human behavior to collect as many beneficial microbes as possible. - Dr.O’Mara said that it's nice when you are passionate about the microbiome and are trying very hard to optimize it and share its advantages with your clients. - As you grow older, you grow worse and become more diseased and less capable. But this is only the case because chronic diseases are around, and we have lost our insights into how we should be living. [43:21] The Biomarker Visceral Fat: What It Is And How It Affects Our Body Performance - Right below the skin is this fat depo called subcutaneous fat. It is separated into two components: superficial subcutaneous fat and deep subcutaneous fat. - Deep subcutaneous fat releases inflammatory molecules very similar to visceral fat. It is inflammatory in nature, and it's aligned with chronic disease and a higher amount of cardiovascular disease. - Superficial subcutaneous fat does not secrete these inflammatory molecules. It secretes a fascinating molecule called adiponectin; the more you have it, the lower your risk for cardiovascular disease. - There's a lot of complexity in how the body decides and reacts to the lifestyle of a particular species, but you sure want to avoid having visceral fat and deep subcutaneous fat. - Start with your diet and eating healthy, and then build on the success of a healthy diet with other healthy lifestyle choices. [1:16:41] What are the five most common contributors to visceral fat? - The first biggest contributor to visceral fat is processed carbohydrates, the simple sugars that contribute significantly to visceral fat deposition, likely through the role of a microbiome. - Stress in our lives has a very harmful effect on the hormone cortisol, with deposition and acceleration of visceral fat. - Alcohol has a negative contribution through metabolism and its effect on the liver, which we see accumulation of visceral fat. - People who have sleeping problems can elevate their visceral fat. - Lastly, too much durational exercise, such as distance running or cycling, can accumulate visceral fat. [1:41:14] Restore Your Metabolic Health And Microbiome To Live A Better Life - If you're thinking about adding fruit, honey, milk, or other things, consider doing an MRI baseline and tracking and seeing the results. - People who are overweight, have suboptimal metabolism, and have compromised microbiomes need to focus on restoring their metabolic health and microbiome. - Everyone is different, so study yourself and follow these biomarkers to help optimize your biology. This will allow you to know the inside and outside of your body and be guided to live a better life. AND MUCH MORE!
