Hello again folks!  I am very excited about today's guest.  Dr. Bill Schindler is the founder and director of the Eastern Shore Food Lab, an Associate Professor of Anthropology and Archaeology at Washington College in Chestertown, Maryland and the co-star of both the National Geographic series, The Great Human Race and Curiosity Stream’s, The Modern Stone Age Family.   He is a food archaeologist, primitive technologist and chef.  He travels the world documenting traditional food ways and works to draw inspiration from the deep archaeological record, rich and diverse ethnographic record and modern culinary world to create food solutions that are relevant, meaningful and accessible today.  Bill is a strong advocate of traditional foodways and is constantly seeking new ways to incorporate lessons learned from his research into the diets of modern humans.  His outlook on food has revolutionized the way in which he and his family eat and he attributes much of the health his wife and three children enjoy to the nutrient dense hunted, gathered, and fermented foods that comprise a significant portion of their diets.  He empowers people around the world to eat like humans again by reconnecting them with their food, past, environment and communities through speaking, teaching and writing.  Dr. Schindler's website: www.drbillschindler.com  Eastern Shore Food Lab: www.washcoll.edu/ Social media (instagram, facebook, twitter): @drbillschindler    Don't forget the Butcher Box sale going on!  2 filet mignons and 2 lbs of salmon FREE!  Surf N' Turf!

Hello and welcome back to the Ketodontist Podcast! In this episode I'm going to discuss why grains, even the "heart healthy whole grains", are overrated and should not be considered the mainstay of a healthy diet. IMO, this goes beyond just the low carb, keto, or paleo folks. Considering the poor nutritional qualities and possible pitfalls surrounding grains, there are just much better nutrition choices regardless of diet choice.

Welcome back KD Tribe!  Today we have a very special guest and personal hero of Dr. Matt's: Dr. Ted Naiman! Dr. Theodore Naiman is a board-certified Family Medicine physician and has devoted much of his career to the study of diet and exercise and their relationship to health.  He has used these diet and exercise techniques to treat thousands of patients. He has seen miraculous health transformations, which can literally cure metabolic diseases (diabetes for example) and autoimmune diseases (such as IBS). He feels an obligation to help as many people as possible find their path to optimum health. In this episode we discuss: How he went from vegetarian to low carb. Why the insulin hypothesis theory of obesity is starting to crumble How insulin resistance is actually a consequence of overfilling your fat stores Why Dr. Naiman moved away from ordering tons of tests for his patients and now focuses on the low hanging fruit.   Why his advice always goes back to diet and exercise Why resistance training is optimal for body recomposition Why a gym membership isn’t a necessity for strength training Why you need to focus on what you CAN have on low carb, not what you can’t. Why protein should be a protein set for the individual person What is the theory of protein leverage satiety? How you can still get fat even when being strict keto How long should Dr. Matt keep up his “high” protein keto cut?

It only made sense that going into episode 21 that we would circle back with Marty.  If you have noticed, this show focuses on whole foods and nutrient density, and we believe wholeheartedly in what Marty is doing with his tool the Nutrient Optimiser.   Marty is an engineer whose interest in nutrition was spawned out of necessity trying to better manage his wife's Type 1 diabetes as well as his own family history of type 2 diabetes and obesity.     In early 2015 he started blogging at OptimisingNutrition.com.  He tries to provide clarity around many of the confusing and conflicting issues in nutrition, often using a quantitative approach.     While his blog posts can sometimes go deep on a topic, he has also worked to develop a shortlist of optimal foods to suit different goals by balancing the sometimes-competing parameters of nutrient density, insulin load and energy density.      His most recent project is the Nutrient Optimiser which consolidates his thinking into an automated system that reviews a person's current diet to provide a shortlist of recommended foods to provide the nutrients they are not getting enough of while supporting their goals, whether they be diabetes control, weight loss, bodybuilding or athletic performance.     In this episode we cover: Optimal blood sugar and ketones for nutritional ketosis   Why you shouldn’t chase high ketone levels if your goal is fat loss   Why insulin isn’t the devil that we’ve made it out to be   Why you may be overweight but not necessarily insulin resistant   Why “Personal Fat Threshold” is important and why you should care   If you are limiting calories, why you should focus on nutrient dense foods   Why your adipose tissue is actually a protective mechanism   The role of protein in the diet, and why we shouldn’t fear it in keto   Why hormones matter and why calories still matter.   Why tracking blood ketones becomes a waste of money for most people.   You can listen directly at these links! iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/ketodontist-podcast/id1252428998?ls=1 Stitcher: http://www.stitcher.com/podcast/ketodontist-podcast Google Play: https://play.google.com/music/listen?u=0#/ps/Itp6hga6aknibumb4gy7eveduqq Podcast Homepage: http://ketodontist.libsyn.com   OPTIMAL KETONE AND BLOOD SUGAR LEVELS FOR KETOSIS: https://optimisingnutrition.com/2015/07/20/the-glucose-ketone-relationship/   DOES INSULIN RESISTANCE REALLY CAUSE OBESITY?: https://optimisingnutrition.com/2018/04/12/does-insulin-really-resistance-cause-obesity/   TED NAIMAN’S DAM FAT STORAGE INSULINOGRAPHIC EXPLAINED: https://optimisingnutrition.com/2018/05/03/ted-naimans-dam-fat-storage-insulinographic-explained   OPTIMAL PROTEIN SPARING MODIFIED FAST FOODS & MEALS (PSMF):  https://optimisingnutrition.com/2017/06/17/psmf/   Facebook Listener group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1971127613205341/   The Nutrient Optimiser by Marty Kendall: https://nutrientoptimiser.com/   Ketogains Bootcamp which Sara is currently going through: http://www.ketogainsbootcamps.com/   Ketogains Macro Calculator: http://ketogains.com/ketogains-calculator   Lyle McDonald’s book Rapid Fat Loss Handbook (discussing PSMF): https://store.bodyrecomposition.com/product/rapid-fat-loss-handbook/   Dr. Benjamin Bikman’s Lecture: 'Insulin vs. Glucagon: The relevance of dietary protein' https://youtu.be/z3fO5aTD6JU   Affiliate Link to Robb Wolf’s Keto Masterclass:  www.learnketonow.com

Hello KD Tribe! Welcome back to episode 20 of the Ketodontist Podcast.  In today's show Dr. Matt will be talking about context in keto and paleo, and why it matters.  Too many people are making blanket statements and are forgetting a little thing called nuance. Dr. Matt also gives an update o week 2 of his 12 week “higher protein” keto cut.  Topics covered in this episode are: Why terms like “low, medium, and high” are useless without context How people can consume over 100 grams of carbs and still be keto Why protein should be a target Why it’s ok to be hungry when trying to lose weight. Why you should leverage fat intake according to what your goal is. Why you should focus on nutrient density first and foremost.     We hope you enjoy this episode and we also hope you continue to follow Dr. Matt over the next 12 weeks as he reports back on his own “high protein” experiment.   You can listen directly at these links! iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/ketodontist-podcast/id1252428998?ls=1 Stitcher: http://www.stitcher.com/podcast/ketodontist-podcast Google Play: https://play.google.com/music/listen?u=0#/ps/Itp6hga6aknibumb4gy7eveduqq Podcast Homepage: http://ketodontist.libsyn.com   Low Carb vs Low Fat Whole Foods Study:  https://med.stanford.edu/news/all-news/2018/02/low-fat-or-low-carb-its-a-draw-study-finds.html     Facebook Listener group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1971127613205341/   The Nutrient Optimiser by Marty Kendall: https://nutrientoptimiser.com/   Ketogains Bootcamp which Sara is currently going through: http://www.ketogainsbootcamps.com/   Ketogains Macro Calculator: http://ketogains.com/ketogains-calculator   Lyle McDonald’s book The Ketogenic Diet: https://store.bodyrecomposition.com/product/ketogenic-diet/   Affiliate Link to Robb Wolf’s Keto Masterclass:  www.learnketonow.com

Hello KD Tribe! Welcome back to episode 19 of the Ketodontist Podcast.  In today's show Dr. Matt will be talking about “high protein” version of keto, as well as the 12 week challenge that he is currently going through.  You may have other folks having ill effects eating protein in their ketogenic diets. Let’s see how Dr. Matt does, not only for one week, but for TWELVE WEEKS! Do we need to be concerned about “too high of protein” in a ketogenic diet? Do we need to go full carnivore? Do calories matter? Which is better for body recomposition: cardio or weight training?   We hope you enjoy this episode and we also hope you continue to follow Dr. Matt over the next 12 weeks as he reports back on his own “high protein” experiment.   You can listen directly at these links!

Welcome back to episode 17 of the Ketodontist Podcast.  In today's show Dr. Matt will be giving his $0.02 on a topic that we get a lot of questions about:  Ketone supplements, also known as exogenous ketones.  As someone who has used these for weeks and months in the past, Dr. Matt is going to give you his honest opinion and share the good, the bad, and the ugly.   Note:  We found a GREAT blog post by Virta Health that is very much inline with this episode that we found after it the show was recorded.  So while it's not mentioned in the episode, we wanted to link it in the show notes.   We hope you enjoy this brutally honest episode on a very controversial topic.     You can listen directly at these links! iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/ketodontist-podcast/id1252428998?ls=1 Stitcher: http://www.stitcher.com/podcast/ketodontist-podcast Google Play: https://play.google.com/music/listen?u=0#/ps/Itp6hga6aknibumb4gy7eveduqq Podcast Homepage: http://ketodontist.libsyn.com   Resources and Links from this episode: The video of the dude drinking ketones in Costa Rica (the antithesis of what Dr. Matt believes):  https://www.facebook.com/MichaelRutherfordonline/videos/1495812983815294/ Affiliate link to Robb Wolf's Keto Masterclass:  www.learnketonow.com Affiliate link to Dr. Matt's Pruvit store (Cannot stress enough, these are in no way necessary and are a luxury at best): drmatt.shopketo.com Virta Health's excellent blog post that we found after recording this episode: https://blog.virtahealth.com/ketone-supplements/ Dr. Peter Attia's personal experience with exogenous ketones: https://peterattiamd.com/experience-exogenous-ketones/

Today's show is all about a very important topic that just isn't being talked about enough: the topic of sustainability.  There is a lot of fear mongering going on that is anti-meat, stating that is ruining both our health and our environment.  This episode is to cut through that misinformation and help clear the air. Be sure to check out the resources I mention in the show that go into sustainability and regenerative agriculture.   The (ludicrous) article proposing a meat tax: https://www.alternet.org/food/3-reasons-why-meat-tax-good-idea The counter argument on why veganism isn't all that sustainable: http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/food-and-drink/veganism-environment-veganuary-friendly-food-diet-damage-hodmedods-protein-crops-jack-monroe-a8177541.html Diana Rodger's new project Kale vs Cow:  https://www.generosity.com/fundraising/kale-vs-cow-the-case-for-better-meat--2 CJ Hunt's project in a similar vein, Dispelling the Lies: https://www.classy.org/campaign/dispelling-the-lies-the-perfect-human-diet-2-animal-foods-real-story/c143660 Joel Salatin's Ted Talk: Cows, Carbon, and Climate https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Z75A_JMBx4 And also, if you're looking for the best resource to learning more about keto and how to do it in a smart, healthy way, check out Robb Wolf's Keto Masterclass.  Check it out at www.learnketonow.com

We're back! After taking a long holiday I was chomping at the bit to get back to talking with you beautiful people.  In today's episode we're going to the basics. The amount of misinformation, hype, and infighting in the nutrition world seems to be multiplying daily.  We need to take a step back, take a deep breath, and start looking at the foundation of proper nutrition. In this episode I'm going to get back to explaining what I consider the "proper" way of doing keto, and why we shouldn't be dogmatic about it.   I also rant a bit on why both calories and hormones matter, and why just like with most things in life, the truth is somewhere in the middle.   Links to sources mentioned in the episode: Report on the health of Kansas:  http://ksnt.com/2018/01/29/kansas-is-now-the-sickest-state-in-the-country/ Video of Calorie Counting Ballet Dancer: https://youtu.be/5356zt0JiDY Public Health Collaboration's RCT Analysis: https://phcuk.org/rcts/ And if you're wanting the best comprehensive resource to learn and implement a ketogenic lifestyle safely and smartly checkout www.learnketonow.com

Greetings Ketodontist tribe! We have a HUGE show today.  Today we have none other than top ranked podcaster, world class level coach, and two time New York Times bestselling author Robb Wolf.  Robb is one the founding fathers of the Paleo movement and getting that diet and lifestyle off the ground.  I am both humbled and honored for him to be a guest on the show to talk about his newest endeavor, his Keto Masterclass.   In this episode we discuss: Why the “Paleo guy” would create an education course on Keto Why we shouldn’t be dogmatic in our dietary views Why keto should be seen as a tool, and not a one-size-fits-all fix How there are plenty of other ways to be in ketosis other than a high fat diet Why he created a mixed media masterclass to teach keto, rather than write another book. Why he wants to triage who keto is NOT right for Why he gravitated toward the Ketogains approach to keto Why foundations like sleep, stress reduction, movement, and mindset are critical to your success when going keto. Why ketosis may or may not have been the natural state of our ancestors Why each person needs an individualized approach And much more!   You can check out his website RobbWolf.com for more information on Robb.   You can sign up for the show using this affiliate link: robbwolf.ontraport.com/t?orid=2359&opid=2   You can buy his books on Amazon or anywhere books are sold The Paleo Solution: http://a.co/gOPTayX Wired to Eat: http://a.co/dQhm1hv   You can check out the Ketogains Macro calculator mentioned in the show here:https://ketogains.com/ketogains-calculator/

Welcome back to the second part of our interview with Tyler Cartwright of Ketogains.  In this episode we discuss: How people tend to get indoctrinated into dietary “camps” Why fixing your hormones can lead to weight loss… to a point. How someone eating 150 grams of carbs could still be ketogenic. How the body can use fat directly as a fuel source Who needs to be showing high ketone levels and who doesn’t Why you don’t need to fear protein Why you should be focusing on whole foods. If fat loss is your main goal, you may not need extra fat in your diet Why calories DO still matter, even on keto What the heck is a CICO-path!?

Welcome to Episode 11 of the Ketodontist Podcast!  SUPER excited for our guest today.  His name is Tyler Cartwright.  He is leads the group KetoGains alongside previous show guest Luis Villasenor. This is part 1 of 2. Tyler has a fascination with learning, reading, and self-improvement as a person.  It's truly a bit of an obsession for him - with a personal library which currently clocks in at just north of 2300 books!  At his heaviest he weighed in at 505 lbs, and set out on a journey of self-discovery and leveraged his love of learning with his backgound in science to arrive at a ketogenic diet as a tool for his weight loss.  After over a decade of eating a ketogenic diet, and having lost 295 pounds, he has helped to move the Ketogains community forward as one of the most successful communities of contextualized thought on the use of a ketogenic diet and the applications for fat loss, sports performance, and how to help people transform their lives.  The Ketogains clients have lost in excess of 20,000 in the last 18 months, and countless lives have been changed because of his insight, common-sense, and practical applications to diet, health, training, and living. In this episode we discuss:  How Tyler has lost almost 300 lbs over the last decade. Tyler's past struggles with his weight. How Atkins was a great start for him, and how his nutrition has evolved from there. How he met Luis and how they ended up collaborating for KetoGains. How Keto seems to attract Questioners and Rebels (ie Gretchen Ruben's The Four Tendencies) Why people get so hostile or defensive when discussing nutrition. Why "Lazy" Keto works, until it doesn't. Why there is almost no such thing as "unprocessed" food anymore. Why extended fasting may not be a great idea for some folks. And more!
