Metabolic Freedom With Ben Azadi

Today, I am blessed to have here with me Lesya Holzapfel. She is the CEO and Founder of BSB Tribe and Eat. Be Fit. Explore. She is also the host of the Fit Moms Squad Podcast. Her mission is to share keto holistically and help women feel more confident.  As a teen, Lesya struggled to deal with her weight. This led her to choose being a dietitian as a major in college, but in the end, she was disappointed because she did not want to believe the things she was taught. After all the desperate attempts, she still couldn't lose weight no matter what she was doing.  A friend of hers doing keto and having great results inspired her to try it. That’s where keto comes into her life. After going back and forth on keto because of her pregnancies, she finally has resolved to integrate it into her lifestyle. She began doing clean keto, intermittent fasting and focusing on proteins. Her lifestyle change produced a great outcome, as she lost 60 pounds in just eight months. Her journey of losing weight is an inspiration for many women experiencing the same she had.  In this episode, Lesya speaks about clean and dirty keto and the foods you need to avoid. The positive results you gain in strategically throwing carbs.  Lesya reveals the truth about doing keto in longer terms. She talks about the benefits of intermittent fasting based on your needs. Tune in as we chat about the dirty vs clean keto, investing in your health, carb cycling, intermittent fasting, and ways to break your weight loss stall.

Do organic if possible. -       True keto foods will not be marketed as keto foods. -       Clean keto is just about focusing on whole real foods. [22:18] Investing in Health Will Be Your Best Asset: Start Now! -       Health is not an expense. It's an investment. -       Sadly, health is the last thing that many people invest in. -       Organic food, grass, and all that are more expensive; however, you'll save money in the long run since you eat less. -       Most food at restaurants is going to be served with inflammatory oils. -       The most valuable thing you can invest in is your health. [25:14] How Can you Benefit from Intermittent Fasting Based on Your Needs? -       Time-restricted eating and a three-hour bedtime window are recommended for fully healthy women. -       Keep the meals between an eight to 10-hour window. -        If it's someone with cortisol or adrenal issues, we must be careful with too much fasting. -       We are all fasting. We just don't do it consciously. [28:15] Carb Cycling: Throw Your Carbs Strategically and Gain Positive Outcome -       While keto is a good stress reliever in the short term, it is bad if you are already stressed out. -       Carbs help decrease cortisol and increase serotonin. -        Not all carbs are good. Complex carbs support our body. -       You can travel and enjoy food, and it doesn't mean you have to eat all the crap all day. Just be strategic. -       Having extra healthy carbs around workouts could be a great idea if you feel tired. [38:28] Does Long-Term Keto Work Really? Find Out the Reality of It -       It’s about bio-individuality and personalization -       Some women are not dealing with all this chronic stress that other women are. -       You can’t know if a person is always doing carnivore 24/7. You can’t determine one is healthy just by looking at them. -       Everyone’s body is different, and we change based on our lifestyle. -       Don't believe everything you've seen on social media. [41:58] What Are Some Ways to Break Weight Loss Stall? -       Lesya does not let her clients tell her they've hit a stall unless they have for at least three weeks in a row and don’t feel better. -       She has a step-by-step formula that she teaches in her program. -        Sleep is the most missed thing regarding weight loss stalls. -       Look at the basic causes: food, stress, and sleep. -       Eating normal macros daily, fasting for 24 hours, and then increasing carbs the next day works.

Today, I am blessed to have here with me Dr. Gonzalez. He obtained his Ph. D and BS from the University of California, Irvine where he studied, and his thesis addressed interactions of the immune system following spinal cord injury. In addition to his expertise in degenerative disorders involving the spinal cord, he has extensive experience in stem cell culture and biology from various sources. He has extensive knowledge in all aspects of cell biology and health where he teaches worldwide on regenerative medicine and maintaining immune health. This episode originally aired in August 2021. Dr. Gonzalez is responsible for the development of clinical stem cell applications for several disease/trauma states. He leads 4 different investigational new drug applications with patented stem cell technology. Additionally, he works on the clinical development of immune based therapies using natural killer cells. He had led a reference laboratory in testing various regenerative medicine products. Dr Gonzalez has been in the regenerative medicine field for more than 18 years and has several scientific publications. He has taught, spoken and led many conferences nationwide in the regenerative medicine sector. In this episode, Dr. Gonzalez reveals the inspiration behind his career in the stem cell space. We speak about why cell therapeutics is known as the wild west and the amount of FDA testing Dr. Gonzalez goes through to ensure safe products. Then, Dr. Gonzalez dives into what exactly stem cells are and how they can improve the natural processes that are already occurring in your body. Tune in as we talk about the importance of fasting, turning your life around after an autoimmune diagnosis, and who should consider getting cell therapeutics.

He loves to understand and study cells. Stem cells have properties that can heal the body. Plus, Dr. Gonzalez believes that stem cells can work against aging. In fact, stem cells are made naturally inside our body. [08:00] The Wild West of Cell Therapeutics & FDA Testing Any form of cell therapeutics is like the wild west. When you submit for the cells to have a Chemical Manufacturing Composition, it takes years. Gonzalez got his first clinical study approved in 2019 with the FDA. Essentially, the FDA boils down to the amount of testing. They are always ensuring that the product is safe. [13:05] How Stem Cells Can Improve The Natural Processes In Your Body Pompa and Dr. Gonzalez have been looking at using stem cells to control the inflammatory state and increase blood flow. We need increased blood flow because you’ll notice brain fog and a loss of energy without it. The natural property of our body is actually to increase blood flow any way that it can. The cells in your body have three fates: Natural cell turnover Necrosis Senescence When our cells stop dividing, they start occupying space and cause havoc. These cells can cause wrinkles and gray hair. There’s a cell type in our body that is a natural killer. These cells have three jobs: Remove a cancer cell Pick up viral load Wipe out senescence cells If you don’t have immune health, you essentially have nothing. Every single disease has an immune component to it. [22:10] The Critical Role Fasting Plays In Longevity Aging is an issue of cell growth. If you consume food incorrectly, your body has to process all that. When you keep dividing cells, you are causing senescence. One proven lifestyle change for longevity is fasting. Also, diet is important because you force your body to remove the toxins in your body.   [26:00] Transform Your Health With ReHealth’s Cell Therapeutics Learn about ReHealth here: https://rehealth.com/ Register at the website, and they will contact you. The consultation is completely free. Depending on what you are looking to achieve will determine what type of therapeutics you should consider. Mesenchymal Stem Cell Therapy can help with the aging process. [30:30] How To Start Getting Your Life Back After An Autoimmune Diagnosis First and foremost, Dr. Gonzalez likes to discuss diet. If you are taking a bunch of meds, then you are not going to get better. Stem cells will give you a temporary effect unless you are doing all the key lifestyle components. Think about your goal. Gonzalez doesn’t help people who are smoking. Stem cells will simply be a Band-Aid. Overall, stop smoking, start fasting, and fix your diet.   [33:00] How Frequently You Should Consider Working With ReHealth’s Cell Therapeutics How often you will need cell therapeutics will depend on your goals and your situation. Some people will have one session and feel great for the next five or six years. Most people will get therapeutics every six months or every year. The effect of stem cells initially is far greater than the sequential effects. [42:30] The Type of Person That Should Seriously Consider Cell Therapeutics If you have immune issues, you need cell therapeutics. Also, if you’ve tried everything else, then you should try cell therapeutics. Sadly, doctors will want to hand you a pill. If you are going to go see someone, find someone who knows integrative medicine. If you have any questions, Dr. Gonzalez wants to answer them! Email: Rgonzalez@TheBioBox.com AND MUCH MORE!

Today, I am blessed to have here with me Brad & Maggie Jones. Maggie is a director & Producer, while Brad is a director, writer, editor & producer. After Maggie overcame her stage 4 lung cancer, she and her husband Brad decided to make a documentary series to create an easy-to-understand way of showing people the truth about cancer and how to deal with it.  Maggie is diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer, a disease that has a one percent survival rate. This shocking turn of events began after they moved to Hong Kong, brimming with joy as they went through their busy lives. Doctors gave her six to eight months to live, and she resigned for a while but immediately got back to her feet, clinging to the one percent chance and believing that she would survive no matter what.  She started fasting and reading books, discovering things about the metabolic theory of cancer. She dives deeper until one year later; Maggie is completely cancer free. She lived her best life and aimed to experience her given life to the fullest. She began exercising, changing her eating lifestyle, and learning to love and appreciate her body. Her mission now is to raise awareness of metabolic therapies and help other people thrive and live their best lives.  In this episode, Brad and Maggie discuss overcoming, thriving, and winning your battle against cancer. We should not hate cancer because it is within everyone. Brad and Maggie share what you should know about tumor markers. Brad and Maggie reveal the truth about the war against cancer and why it is wrong. Tune in as we chat about the life-and-death battle against cancer, the falsehood of hating cancer, and the details of the documentary series on cancer.

That is the most important thing to power up people with cancer. -       In many cases, you have to fight against your oncologist, or in Maggie’s case, she completely ignores them, or she would tell them what she is doing. -       Believe your body is a placebo.  It's more important than keto, metabolic theory, than everything. -       If you have somebody in your life who has a diagnosis like cancer or whatever it is, treat them as if they're healthy. -       Fasting is Maggie’s current favorite therapy. [22:26] Don't Hate Cancer: Everyone Has It Inside Their Body -       It was very important to realize that your cancer cells are your cells. It's not an invading virus, bacteria, fungus, or whatever. -       Everybody's got a little bit of cancer inside them. -       It's extremely rare for you to be cured of cancer and never to have a recurrence. -       Don't panic about your first recurrence. Living with cancer is like living with a human body.  [25:45] What You Need to Learn and Understand About Tumor Markers -       It's different for every cancer, and lung cancer doesn't have an official tumour marker. -       90% of lung cancers are smokers. -       It can be something that can help, but at the same time, don't put a ton of weight into it until you are sure. Try to find one that works while you have a tumot. [35:47] War Against Cancer: Why is it the Wrong Mindset To Have? -       Getting cancer from genetic mutations is not proven. It is just a theory. -       The problem with the war on cancer is that we're putting all our effort behind this one genetic mutation theory, and scientists aren't opening their minds to other ways of cancer forming. -       There are so many types of cancer, not even one type of disease. -       It is taking away the funding from things like metabolic therapy that teach you that could create a core cause of cancer. -       You're never going to eradicate the disease. You have to be aware of it.   [39:40] Look for The Best Treatment: Chemotherapy Isn't Your Only Choice -       The five-year survival rate in chemotherapy for breast cancer was 2.1%. A very low percentage. -       There are many viable options to fight cancer, and keto is one of them. -       If you fasted for 13 hours or more, you have a 36% less likelihood of that breast cancer returning. -       There have been 92 new therapies over the last 17 years, and the overall survival was only two months. Not to mention how it costs compared to fasting, which is free. [44:07] Cancer Revolution:  Where to Watch This Groundbreaking Documentary -       You can check out YouTube to watch the film. -        We got many clips up if you want to see something immediately. -    Special opportunity to screen Cancer Revolution Docu-Series with question and answer with Ben Azadi & Dr Tro.

Today, I am blessed to have here with me Devon & Peter. Devon is Peter’s brother-in-law. Devon is a healthcare scientist and engineer, and Peter is a food and beverage entrepreneur. Together, they created Kenetik, a healthy ketone energy drink free of sugar and caffeine, with a real fruit flavor.  Devon and Peter have known each other since their teenage years. They are hardworking, entrepreneurial, and very conscious of health and wellness. Additionally, they both have families to take care of. Dealing with their busy life, they think about how they can be efficient and excel in their work simultaneously.  This is where they discover ketones, an unknown source of energy. They start experimenting and researching ketones. The problem is they found out that ketones in the market are expensive, taste bad, and are ineffective. From there, they began to initiate their study, find sources, get ingredients, and finally create their product called Ketenik, a high-quality exogenous ketone.  In this episode, Devon and Peter talk about what exogenous ketones are and their benefits, and how drinking ketones boost your brain power. Devon and Peter discuss the different types of ketones and the difference between their products of other companies. Devon and Peter dive in about the help of ketones in dealing with radiation. Tune in as we chat about the exogenous ketones, the boost it brings to our body, their pros and cons, and the best time to drink Ketenik.

[29:36] The best time to use the kenetik exogenous ketone drinks -       Normally, morning is the best time to drink kenetik. -       Ketones can be used before a workout to have energy without elevating the heart rate.   -       When you must keep going at night, Ketenik energy can be drunk instead of coffee. -       Drinking Ketenik can satiate hunger when fasting. -       There is a study that shows you won't become intoxicated if you drink Ketenik first. [37:48] How Do Ketones Protect Us from Radiation and Magnetic Fields? -       A study shows 60% reduction in chromosomal injury after exposure to gamma radiation when supplemented with ketones. -       Consuming Ketones will help people with the APOE4 gene since they do not metabolize glucose but do metabolize ketones. -       People with Alzheimer's can still use ketones for energy for their brains. [42:32] Using Ketones to Increase BHB and Handle Reactive Hypoglycemia -       Increasing 0.8 Beta-hydroxybutyrate with 10 grams of Keteniks takes about 20 to 30 minutes, and it’ll be above 2.0. -        It will depend on a person's body size and other factors. -        It is interesting to see the result of using exogenous ketones to shift faster out of reactive hypoglycemia.

Today, I am blessed to have here with me Megan Hall. She received her BS in Exercise Biology and MS in Nutritional Biology at UC Davis where her research focused on the effects of low carbohydrate and ketogenic diets on longevity and health span in mice. This episode originally aired in July 2021. She currently works as Scientific Director at Nourish Balance Thrive, an online health coaching company helping people achieve optimal health and peak performance. In her free time Megan enjoys reading, strength training, and hiking in the Colorado mountains. In this episode, Megan opens up the show by explaining why she wanted to learn more about nutritional and lifestyle interventions for optimal health. Even if you are making the necessary lifestyle changes, you can still be facing health issues. Megan explains why you may want to consider the gut as the reason you are having problems. Plus, Megan talks about how both physical and emotional stress can impact our gut health, and she gives tips on avoiding stress during mealtime. Tune in as we chat about overcoming acid reflux, the impact keto and fasting have on gut health, and whether or not you should give up drinking coffee.

She wanted to know more about how lifestyle and nutrition play a role in chronic diseases. Plus, Megan was becoming frustrated with conventional medical school education. Instead of pharmaceutical education, Megan wanted to learn more about helping people implement impactful nutritional and lifestyle interventions. Now, Megan works at Nourish Balance Thrive. She helps people achieve optimal health and performance.  [06:15] You Made Necessary Lifestyle Changes But Something Is Still Wrong Megan will help people who already have changed their diets, and their sleep is on point. However, there are still health issues. In this case, Megan says something is going on in the gut. Intestinal permeability or dysbiosis could be causing health issues. A stool test and targeted supplementation can fix the gut problem. There isn’t a perfect stool test, unfortunately. [09:40] Mental Emotional Stress Impacts Not Just Our Digestive Health, But Also Our Overall Health There are different ways that stress can impact the gut. Both physical and emotional stress can have consequences. The elevation of stress hormones can cause direct inflammation and lead to further gut-derived inflammation. Stress hormones can potentially even lead to food intolerance if gut permeability is involved. Also, stress can directly impact digestion and nutrient absorption. Our bodies are not designed to digest food while we are under stress. Plus, stress can lead to making poor food choices. Stress can also increase motility and fluid reabsorption in the gut. Take deep breaths before eating – it will bring your body back into the parasympathetic state. [16:05] Eating Before Bed: It Can Affect Digestion, Sleep, And Your Circadian Rhythm  The body expects food to come during the day. Eating inherently increases our energy output and our body temperature. A drop in body temperature is one of the biggest signs or signals for our bodies to go to sleep. If you’re eating before bed, you’re not able to cool your body temperature down to increase melatonin. Sleep should be a time of rest and repair. If we are digesting while sleeping, it can cause issues. Plus, our gut microbes have their own circadian rhythms. [19:45] Megan Reveals Tips For Overcoming Acid Reflux   Avoid really large meals. Some people have specific food triggers that cause acid reflux. Don’t eat close to bedtime. If you’re doing everything right, look at what's going on at the level of the gut to see if there's small intestinal dysbiosis. [21:35] How Ketosis Can Impact Your Gut Health It makes sense from an evolutionary lens that our guts evolved to have this metabolic flexibility to adapt to different food resources available at a given time. There is some recent evidence in animals that butyrate may help enhance sleep. Butyrate also seems to have some anti-inflammatory effects both locally in the gut and then also outside of the gut. [25:00] The Importance of Rotating Foods For Gut Diversity When gut cells use butyrate as a fuel, it's actually converted to ketone bodies. Ketones may help improve gut function and also be used as an alternative fuel source for the gut. Increase gut diversity by rotating which foods you eat. Plus, going in and out of ketosis will also help with gut diversity.   [27:25] The Multiple Benefits That Fasting Has On Your Gut Health Longer-term fasting may improve gut barrier function. Improved gut barrier function is associated with reduced relative bacterial abundance. Intermittent fasting or time-restricted eating in your day-to-day life is a good thing. Plus, fasting can give your gut a rest. Strategic fasting is a helpful tool for your toolbox. [38:05] The Problems With Artificial Sweeteners & Which Ones You Should Avoid Monk fruit and stevia are some of the better artificial sweeteners. Whereas aspartame and sucralose are some of the worst. People who consume artificial sweeteners may have higher levels of insulin resistance. Long-term studies in humans looking at artificial sweetener intake that are controlled don't exist. There are a lot of questions that still need to be answered. Artificial sweeteners can potentially impact energy balance. [43:50] How The Carnivore Diet Can Help Heal Your Gut Nutrient-dense whole foods are great for your gut. What diet works for you today may not be helpful for you down the road. Antinutrients in plants can be problematic. They can inhibit nutrient absorption. Some antinutrients will increase intestinal permeability. [48:50] Should You Give Up Coffee For Your Gut Health? Polyphenols in coffee may have a positive effect on the gut microbial ecosystem. However, coffee can be inflammatory. People do not want to give up their coffee. Adding liquid saturated fats to coffee can be making your gut health worse. It can cause significant gut inflammation. If you’re having joint pain, brain fog, or an inability to focus, then coffee could be the issue. We need to appreciate that coffee can have both a positive and a negative effect on our gut health.

Today, I am blessed to have here with me Damon Sununtnasuk. He is the founder and CEO of the Sunt Group and Palmara Health which is previously named Nature Cure Labs. He has received numerous awards and recognitions in 2020. These awards include but are not limited to Company of the Year - Health Products & Services, Health & Wellness Nutrition Manufacturer of the Year, 10 Most Influential CEOs in 2022, and many more. Damon is also part of the board of directors of the University of Florida Alumni Association. Damon was born and raised in Florida where he graduated Magna Cum Laude from the University of Florida with the degree of Bachelor of Science in Business Administration. He had an opportunity to live overseas which is why he was able to take his Master of Business Administration at the University of Cambridge.  After living overseas, Damon came back to the United States in the year 2015. During this time, he experienced various serendipity. One of them is not having a way of looking after his health. At the time, he was also surrounded by the technological industry, entrepreneurial spirit, and startups. Aside from that, his group of friends was also into MCTs for health purposes which triggered his curiosity. There was even a time when he discovered "oil pulling" which is the process of putting coconut oil in the mouth for 10 minutes before spitting it out to help remove dirt and help maintain the health of your teeth and gums. After these events, he began to research MCTs where he was able to discover the different therapeutic benefits of Medium-Chain Triglycerides. Together with his desire to improve his health and the will to help others, he was able to establish his company in 2015. Currently, they have 3 manufacturing facilities and 35 warehouses in the United States. In this episode, Damon discusses Medium-Chain Triglycerides, specifically Monolaurin, and their role and benefits to the body. He talks about different studies about it and briefly discusses how these supplements are collected and made. He also mentions the Monolaurin product that his company offers.

The health benefits of MCTs have been studied over the years. Some people put it on their coffee, protein shakes, food and etc. When MCTs have been converted in the body, it becomes monolaurin. The three main types of MCTs are Capric, Caprylic, and Lauric Acid. They bring benefits to the body by giving immune support and regulation as well as an aid in ketosis. Damon is focusing on Lauric Acid as based on their research, it helps in immune, digestive, and inflammatory support. [11:33] Everything About Monolaurin: Role and Benefits in the Body Damon read a study about the use of Monolaurin to fight off Giardia Lamblia, one of the most common causes of malnutrition. One of the studies Damon has read used Monolaurin to try cure Giardia Lamblia on animal subjects in which the cure rates reached over 90%.  On the other hand, Damon has also read another study wherein Monolaurin was used on the animal subjects first before giving Giardia Lamblia. 60% of the test subjects didn't get sick. Research shows that Monolaurin helps in breaking down the protective envelope of the DNA and RNA viruses. Breast milk contains 6.5% of Monolaurin. Monolaurin can be found on coconut oil and palm oil. However, palm oil can only be harvested on sensitive environments which can affect natural habitats which is why coconut oil is more preferred. [20:21] The Different Ways You Can Take Monolaurin Before taking any supplements, you must contact a health professional in order to determine the right dosage for you to take. Introductory dose - Taking Monolaurin once a day, once every other day, and slowly increasing that up into the therapeutic dosage you're looking to get as an individual. Maintenance - In this way, monolaurin is taken daily to help maintain and regulate the healthy immune response.  Some people also take Monolaurin when they feel sick or immunocompromised.  [25:30] How Safe is Monolaurin for the Body? Monolaurin, under its chemical name 'Glycerol Monolaurin', is included on the 'Generally Recognized as Safe' list of the FDA. Different studies have not indicated a limit on the use of Monolaurin. Monolaurin impacts gut health. Research suggests that the continuous use of Monolaurin does not creates resistance in the body. [27:38] What Should You Do Before Buying a Product? Check out product testimonials posted on the website or marketplaces. Some product reviews are incentivized and not true so you should try and search about it first. Research through trusted websites like PubMed, familiarized yourself on different products, the science, the background, then the mechanics of it all and sort of trust the science and not necessarily someone's opinion.

Please don’t attribute this to me, as it could be seen as a disease claim. “When monolaurin is consumed, it circulates in the bloodstream & is metabolized in a delayed fashion over 8-12 hours. Monolaurin is not excreted or detoxified out of the body. Instead, it is turned into energy in the form of ketones, [which in turn can] support ketone levels in the body.” -          https://dralexrinehart.com/articles/monolaurin-a-secret-coconut-oil-compound-with-powerful-immune-benefits/ “When coconut oil is consumed, the medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) are broken down into individual medium chain fatty acids and monoglycerides, which can kill or inactivate pathogenic microorganisms inside the body. The antiviral action, attributed to monolaurin (the monoglyceride of lauric acid), is that of solubilizing the lipids and phospholipids in the envelope of the pathogenic organisms causing the disintegration of their outer membrane. There is also evidence that MCFA interfere with the organism’s signal transduction and the antimicrobial effect in viruses is due to interference with virus assembly and viral maturation.” -          Arora, Rajesh, et al. “Potential of Complementary and Alternative Medicine in Preventive Management of Novel H1N1 Flu (Swine Flu) Pandemic: Thwarting Potential Disasters in the Bud.” Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine, 13 Oct. 2010. “[Monolaurin] removes the M protein from the virus envelope resulted in loss of envelope integrity, which is essential for virus infectivity… the loss of envelope integrity results in loss of infectious virus titer” -          Hierholzer, John C, and Jon J Kabara. “In Vitro Effects of Monolaurin Compounds on Enveloped DNA and RNA Viruses.” Journal of Food Safety, vol. 4, no. 1, Mar. 1982, pp. 1–12. “Medium-chain saturated and long-chain unsaturated fatty acids, on the other hand, were all highly active against the enveloped viruses... Antiviral fatty acids were found to affect the viral envelope, causing leakage and at higher concentrations, a complete disintegration of the envelope and the viral particles.

Today, I am blessed to have here with me Dr. Jeffry Gerber, a board-certified family physician and owner of South Suburban Family Medicine in Littleton, Colorado, where he is known as "Denver's Diet Doctor". Dr. Jeffry has been providing individualized treatment to the local community since 1993, and he plans to maintain that tradition by focusing on lifespan, wellness, and prevention. Dr. Gerber has been focusing on prevention and treatment programs using low-carb high fat (LCHF), Ancestral, Paleo, and Primal diets to treat and prevent chronic conditions after becoming frustrated with spiralling healthcare costs related to the treatment of conditions such as overweight, obesity, diabetes, atherosclerosis, and heart disease, to name a few. Dr. Gerber is also a co-organizer of the Low Carb Conferences, a yearly educational event for healthcare professionals and anyone interested in learning about the newest diet and health science. Healthcare practitioners can earn CME (Continuing Medical Education) credit. In this episode, Dr. Jeffry discusses medical nutrition conferences and eating and recommends a low-carb diet. Listen in as Dr. Jeffry discusses the negative consequences of being unhealthy, calories, fat threshold, ketosis, and many other topics.  Get 10% off your ticket to Low Carb Denver.

The number one problem for people being unhealthy is the toxic food environment, such as processed and highly palatable foods. Most companies drive the reward centres of the consumers' brains, similar to a drug, which makes unhealthy products hard to avoid. [16:43] Calories In, Calories Out: Calories Matter Eating less and exercising more, creating the negative energy balance that causes weight loss, is the standard advice for people who are dieting. However, it is not the most effective.   A hormonal condition may be the number one factor in metabolic health and ideal body weight. Artificial dichotomy has two camps: the calorie camp, or the energy balance camp, and the hormonal camp or the insulin camp. Doctors and patients should consider the difference between deprivation and listening to your body. [26:15] Do You Know There’s a Personal Fat Threshold? What Is It’s Purpose? The personal fat threshold has the ability to store fat as energy. Unhealthy fats are created when the subcutaneous fat can't store any more energy and goes into the viscera, and as the viscera creates abdominal fat, inflammation sets in. Americans have a much higher personal fat threshold than Asians.  [36:53] The Continuous Glucose Monitor Is More Important Than You Think! Here’s Why Some individuals want to start monitoring and preventing diabetes, yet potential conflict is present as conferences are only available for those with Type-2 Diabetes. Patients are often seen with high levels of CGM in the morning and low levels of CGM in the afternoon, but some patients are the opposite. Paying attention to how the individual feels, getting them on a scale, and doing a body composition, is almost better than doing CGM. [41:12] Do You Have Nutrition Concerns? The Low Carb Denver Conference Is For You!
