71 - Keto Curious: Tool or Trend


Listen Later

Are you curious about the ketogenic diet but overwhelmed by conflicting information? This episode explores the truth behind the keto diet, separating fact from fiction and dispelling common myths.

Key Points:

  • The ketogenic diet is a low-carb, high-fat diet that puts your body in a state of ketosis, using fat for fuel instead of glucose.
  • Contrary to popular belief, it's not a one-size-fits-all approach and should be adapted to your individual needs and health goals.
  • While some demonize it, others hail it as a miracle cure. This episode aims to provide a balanced and nuanced perspective.
  • The episode covers:
    • History of the keto diet, dating back further than the 1920s.
  • How ketosis works and its potential benefits for various health conditions.
  • The importance of metabolic flexibility and tailoring your keto approach.
  • Common misconceptions and mistakes to avoid, like focusing solely on macros or relying on processed keto products.
  • Tips for formulating a personalized keto plan, including real food choices, tracking macros, and electrolyte balance.
  • The keto diet as a tool for healing and achieving long-term health, not just weight loss.
  • What to Do:

    • Consider adding the ketogenic diet to your toolbox, but prioritize individual needs and listen to your body.
  • Seek guidance from a qualified healthcare professional if needed.
  • Remember, a healthy body releases weight naturally, and the keto diet can be a supportive tool in that journey.
