Fasting can be broken down into 5 stages. These 5 stages are based on where the body gets its glucose from. The body has two main sources of fuel: glucose (sugar) and fat. Most cells can use either fuel source with the main exception being the brain which cannot use fat (triglycerides) directly for energy, also the retina, parts of the kidney, red blood cells, etc. But most of the body can use glucose and fat for energy, kind of like a hybrid car that can run on gasoline and electricity.  Click below to watch the video: The body also stores energy…

Has someone told you that low-carb and keto diets are great for weight loss, but they’re not sustainable? Or that eating this way is safe for the short-term but harmful over the long-term? Time to dispel both of these myths! Let’s get thing one straight right at the start: as long as your food provides enough vitamins, minerals, protein, and essential fats, and you consume enough calories (energy) to fuel the activities you choose to engage in, there’s no reason you can’t follow a low-carb or keto diet for the rest of your life. Carbohydrates are a non-essential macronutrient to consume.…

Watch the video below:     1. New York striploin steak     The reason for this, is because it’s a great source of protein but equally as important, it has a good amount of fat on it (however not as much as a ribeye) and it also has a tendon along the side of it which provides a…

A month ago I shared the importance of lowering your blood sugar because high blood sugar is the major problem in type 2 diabetes and fat gain. BUT what if I told you that eating too many carbs could be causing your health problems even if your blood sugar is normal? It’s true! This is where insulin enters the picture. You’re probably used to hearing about insulin as a hormone that helps to lower your blood sugar. In fact, if you use insulin injections for type 2 diabetes, your doctor prescribed these for you for exactly this purpose because if he didn't, you could have…

Have you ever been told that you have to consume a lot of fat in general, and include coconut and MCT oils, specifically, in order to do a keto diet the “right way" and get into ketosis to burn fat? The truth is, in my practice and in those of my mentors, one of the most common reasons for people not losing weight on keto is adding lots of extra fat to foods, and eating more fat than they even have a taste for simply to fulfill whatever number a tracking app is telling them to get to.  A biggest mistake. …

There are two pathways: the pathway most people take—the one that leads to more medicine, more debilitation, and dangerous consequences from type 2 diabetes. And then there’s the path I want YOU to take: the one that leads to less medicine, more zest for life, and TOTAL REVERSAL OF TYPE 2 DIABETES as well as other chronic health conditions. That’s right: you don’t have to “control” your type 2 diabetes and all the conditions related to it. You can reverse it completely (and the conditions related to it) and NOT HAVE IT ANYMORE. And the amazing part is, there’s really only one thing you…

When your goal is weight loss, the most important thing a way of eating has to do is…CONTROL HUNGER! You can’t stick to a diet that keeps you hungry all the time.  No one can.  It goes against basic human biology.  No amount of willpower or discipline can make you stick to a way of eating that leaves you physically uncomfortable. If you ever dieted to lose weight in the past, did you: Power through hunger all day only to dive head-first into junk food at night? Deal with constant, intrusive thoughts of food? Ignore the nonstop rumbling of your empty-feeling stomach? Plan your next meal…

Insulin resistance is a medical condition finally getting the attention it deserves. So what do you need to know about it and what can you do about it.  One of the great things about the recent attention to insulin resistance is it’s something we can address before it can develop into type 2 diabetes. And if we can diagnose insulin resistance, address it and reverse it, then people might never go on to get type 2 diabetes and will therefore dramatically improve their health. Some of the important issues in regards to insulin resistance are as follows. Watch the video below: Now insulin resistance…

What is the personal fat threshold?  It comes out of the medical literature and it basically refers to how fat you are capable of getting.  We ingest most of our energy in our diets from carbs and fat and then store energy in the form of triglycerides in cells called adipocytes aka fat cells. All of this fat we are carrying around we can use to run our metabolism whenever we don’t have access to food.  Watch the video below: When you eat fat, most of it is stored in your fat cells as mentioned above however some is burned along the way…
