Danny Vega | Mistakes Made With The Ketogenic Diet, Keto For Kids, SuperStarch: KKP 72

Today, I am grateful to have here with me, Danny Vega, part of the Fat Fueled Family - a blog, podcast, and YouTube channel dedicated to leading a movement that will empower families to eat better, move more, and grow closer. They invite you into their lives and hope you enjoy their content. In June of 2016, Danny discovered the ketogenic lifestyle, and he never looked back. Danny found so many benefits within a week of switching that he knew this would be the new way of life. Inflammation and injuries from years of playing on turf and beating himself up with heavy lifting were gone. Danny regained control over his hunger and found mental clarity and an increase in productivity that he had never experienced before. In August of 2017, after over a year of dipping their toes in the water, his two boys joined him. Desmond, the eldest, felt an immediate increase in energy and improvement in his allergies and asthma. Dean, the youngest, has had astounding improvements in his eczema and mood. Danny's children are immune to cravings. It has been a fantastic thing to see. They thought their kids were "picky" just like most kids supposedly are; keto changed their taste buds, and now they crave real, nourishing food. Best of all, they do not feel restricted in any way! In this episode, Danny breaks some common myths about the ketogenic diet – during the first three weeks of the diet, you shouldn't be lowering your protein intake. Danny also touches on the importance of salt, potassium, electrolytes, and magnesium. Then, Danny explains why he would carb load during high-performance athletic workouts. Stay tuned to hear the ways Danny's kids utilize the ketogenic diet and how they navigate the kid's menu at restaurants. Plus, Danny reveals the science behind SuperStarch®.

In 2013, Danny got into power lifting – making it into the top 25 in the country. When he deadlifted 700 lbs., he tore his left meniscus. In 2016, Danny’s knee was hurting like crazy, so he decided just to get healthy. He tried a typical bodybuilding diet; they did well. Eventually, he and his wife started on the ketogenic diet. [18:25] Mistakes Made with the Ketogenic Diet There is an obsession with moderating protein. Keto is getting to a point where there is enough information out there that most people think they know what it is. People think if they overeat protein, it will turn into sugar. Danny says you can’t lower protein too much in the first three weeks. Make sure your protein is high in the first three weeks. Aim for five to eight grams of salt per day. Five grams of salt is not five grams of sodium. A teaspoon of salt will give you two grams of sodium. Get to a higher point with your metabolism so you have more to work with. Danny gets women to eat more each day because they do not eat enough. Being undernourished will impede fat loss. It’s not just cramps we should be worrying about. Potassium will help minimize overnight muscle spasms, which may contribute to you waking up in the middle of the night. Keep your electrolytes high and take a magnesium supplement. [28:10] Should You Do a Weekly Scheduled Carb Load? Fifty grams of carbs post-workout was all Danny could give to himself. However, he knew the keto diet wasn’t taking into account high-performance athletes. A fat-adapted athlete is going to be able to eat a lot more carbs. Although, that doesn’t mean they should eat more carbs. Fat can create the sugar that we need. If you are chronically doing high-performance training, your body will be stressed without the carbs. It’s important to have carbs during days like that. Glucose intolerance can act up over time while practicing the ketogenic diet. Use carb loads when you need them; weekly might not necessarily make sense. “Everything should be done strategically.” [34:30] Never Feed Your Kids From The Kid’s Menu This is one of Danny’s biggest pet peeves. We are doing our children such a disservice. If you are trying to conceive, take methylated b vitamins. Breastfeed your children for gut health and immune health. Nurse your babies until they start showing interest in food. Then, cut the babies food into strips. When you go to restaurants, you will see the kid’s menu with mac and cheese, chicken nuggets, and hotdogs. If both parents are together, get both parties on the same page. Talk to your partner about what is okay for your kids to eat. Get rid of all the crap in the house – have a list of non-negotiables. When you go out, have a plan. In the car, Danny pulls up the menu and scopes out the options. “Don’t fight your kids on nutrition.” [47:50] About SuperStarch SuperStarch® is a patented energy source without sugar or stimulants that delivers a slow-release of carbohydrates to steady your blood sugar. With SuperStarch, Danny’s blood sugar doesn’t go crazy. Danny is consulting and spreading the message for supplementing the fat-adapted athlete. SuperStarch® is a smarter energy source to avoid the spike & crash in blood glucose that commonly occurs with most simple carbohydrates like sugars and starches. AND MUCH MORE!

#957 How To Double Your Fat Burn In 7 Days - Optimize Sleep Routine For Metabolism with Ben Azadi

#957 How To Double Your Fat Burn In 7 Days - Optimize Sleep Routine For Metabolism with Ben Azadi

Did you know that poor sleep can stall fat loss—no matter how perfect your diet and workouts are? Why Sleep is the Master Switch for Metabolism: sleep is more important than diet and exercise when it comes to metabolic health. Think of your metabolism as a symphony—sleep is the conductor. Without it, everything falls apart. 4 Ways Poor Sleep Wrecks Your Fat-Burning Ability 1️⃣ Increases Blood Sugar & Insulin Resistance After just one week of poor sleep, blood sugar levels mimic prediabetes. Hunger hormones (ghrelin & leptin) go out of whack, leading to overeating. 2️⃣ Slows Down Metabolism Poor sleep lowers resting metabolic rate (RMR) and reduces fat-burning capacity. It also elevates cortisol, increasing fat storage, especially belly fat. 3️⃣ Toxic Buildup in the Brain The glymphatic system clears toxins during deep sleep. Without it? Buildup of beta-amyloid (linked to Alzheimer’s). Poor sleep is associated with brain fog, mood disorders, and accelerated aging. 4️⃣ Circadian Rhythm Mismatch = Shortened Lifespan Night shift work & erratic sleep increase the risk of metabolic diseases and even cancer. The WHO classifies night shift work as a probable carcinogen. 🔹 7-Day Sleep Optimization Plan for Fat Loss 📅 Day 1: Fix Your Sleep Schedule Go to bed and wake up at the same time every day (even on weekends!). Sleep between 10 PM - 2 AM for maximum fat-burning benefits (the "Money Time Sleep Window"). 🌞 Day 2: Get Morning & Evening Sunlight Morning sunlight lowers cortisol and regulates your body clock. Evening light (sunset or dim lights) signals melatonin production. 📵 Day 3: Cut Off Blue Light at Night No screens 90 minutes before bed—use blue light blocking glasses if needed. Reduce artificial light and avoid bright overhead lights at night. 🥗 Day 4: Stop Eating at Least 3 Hours Before Bed Eating late raises body temperature and insulin, blocking deep sleep. If you must snack, prioritize protein & fat instead of carbs. 🌡 Day 5: Keep Your Bedroom Cool (60-68°F) Lower body temperature = deeper sleep. Use a cooling mattress pad or sleep with less clothing if necessary. 💆 Day 6: Use Magnesium & Relaxation Hacks Magnesium glycinate before bed can calm the nervous system. Try meditation, breathwork, or binaural beats for relaxation. 🚫 Day 7: No Caffeine After 2 PM Caffeine has a half-life of 5-6 hours—cut it off early for better sleep. If you need a pick-me-up, opt for herbal teas or decaf options. Bonus: Sleep Tracking & Biohacking Use a sleep tracker (Oura Ring, WHOOP) to monitor deep sleep & HRV. Experiment with red light therapy before bed for melatonin production. Try BrainTap or inHarmony meditation cushion to enhance relaxation.   🎁 📚 Purchase Ben's new book Metabolic Freedom today to receive immediate access to a FREE course on metabolism with exclusive interviews from Gary Brecka, Dr Daniel Pompa, Dr Jason Fung, Megan Ramos, Cynthia Thurlow & more.

#956  5 Biohacks That Make Weight Loss Effortless: Cold, Heat, and Light Therapies with Ben Azadi

#956 5 Biohacks That Make Weight Loss Effortless: Cold, Heat, and Light Therapies with Ben Azadi

I was just interviewed on NBC news about bio-hacks that help make weight loss effortless. I was so inspired that I decided to hit record here and share the 5 biohacks that help you lose stubborn fat! This is all taken from Chapter 11: Cutting-Edge Biohacks to Achieve a New Level of Health of my brand new book Metabolic Freedom. The first biohack that makes weight loss effortless is cold exposure. 1️⃣ Brown Fat Activation & Fat Loss Cold therapy activates brown fat, which burns calories to generate heat. Unlike white fat (which stores energy), brown fat boosts metabolism & aids weight loss. 🧑‍🔬 Study Insight: People with active brown fat burn more calories – one study showed 20 kcal more per session! 2️⃣ Energy & Focus Boost Cold exposure releases epinephrine & norepinephrine, making you feel alert and focused. 🚀 These neurochemicals stay elevated even after exposure, leading to higher productivity & mood enhancement. 🧠💡 3️⃣ Inflammation, Recovery & Immunity Regular cold therapy: ✅ Reduces inflammation ✅ Speeds up muscle recovery 💪 ✅ Enhances immune function Dr. Andrew Huberman’s protocol: 👉 11 minutes per week (spread over 2-4 sessions) for max benefits. 4️⃣ Best Time for Cold Exposure Morning is best 🕙: Studies show higher brown fat activity & metabolic benefits. Men: Greater thermogenesis in the morning. Women: Lipid metabolism more responsive in the morning. 5️⃣ Cold Exposure & Exercise Pre-exercise cold exposure 🔥 can boost endurance & power, especially in heat. BUT… Avoid cold right after workouts – it may blunt recovery and reduce adaptation to training. 🎁 📚 Purchase Ben's new book Metabolic Freedom today to receive immediate access to a FREE course on metabolism with exclusive interviews from Gary Brecka, Dr Daniel Pompa, Dr Jason Fung, Megan Ramos, Cynthia Thurlow & more.
