Luis' diet beginnings
High protein diets
Listener Q&A: Kathryn - I’ve heard that keto diets can actually raise cholesterol
Keto Macro Calculator for Free

Intentionally breaking your ketosis
Listener Q&A: Aimee - Is it useful to our bodies if we aren't eating keto 7 days a week?
Recalibrating your palate
Listener Q&A: Emily - Can you truly lose fat and build muscle at the same time? And if so, what’s the most effective way to do both simultaneously?
Listener Q&A: Melanie - What is the best time to take Tone Protein surrounding exercise to support muscle recovery? Immediately after or can it be several hours later?
Fasted training
Listener Q&A: Valory - I go to the gym faithfully. I’ve completed 2 weight loss challenges where I lost weight but also muscle...
Listener Q&A: Nicole - Are they actually necessary if you don’t sweat and only fast from 12-19 hours
Listener Q&A: Stephanie - Are electrolytes just salt mostly? If I have high blood pressure is something like LMNT safe? More salt related- is pink salt ok? Is Celtic the only “good salt”?

Flavor development
Listener Q&A: Teresa - Anytime I go low carb my sleep suffers...
