Listen in today as Christine and Jimmy talk all about carbohydrates in Episode 9. Here's what Christine and Jimmy talked about in Episode 10: – 1. Review of Digestion –– A. Digestion happens north to south –– B. Proper stomach pH is supposed to be between 1.5 and 3 –– C. Zinc and B6 are needed to produce stomach acid – 2. Dysfunction in digestive process –– A. Dysfunction in the brain: Sympathetic State—doing other activities or being stressed while eating –– B. Dysfunction in the mouth: Not chewing food thoroughly (for about 30 seconds); signal not received from the brain to have the mouth release salivary amylase. –– C. Dysfunction in the stomach: Not having enough stomach acid. 90% of Americans don't produce enough stomach acid (Jonathon Wright, MD came up with this using the Heidelberg Gastrotelemetry equipment to check the stomach pH on thousands of patients AND Dr. George Goodhart, a chiropractor, came to the same conclusion using kinesiological and functional assessment). ––– 1. Food, especially protein doesn't get broken down ––– 2. Allows foreign invaders to pass through to the rest of the digesting system. Helicobacter (H) Pylori (stomach ulcers caused by bacteria) happens because of inadequate stomach acid ––– 3. Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) actually happens because of too little stomach acid. Poorly digested foods cause a back-up in the esophagus oftentimes because the cardiac sphincter is weak. Since the acid content is higher in the stomach, the back flow burns the esophagus. ––– 4. If stomach pH is not right, the pyloric sphincter won't release the stomach contents into the duodenum Remember: Carbs ferment, proteins putrefy and fats rancidify –– D. Dysfunction in the Pancreas: If pH of chime (digested food) is not correct, Secretin won't be released to trigger the pancreatic juices needed to further break down food. –– E. Dysfunction in the Gallbladder: If pH of chime is not correct, then CCK won't be released to trigger bile to digest the fats we eat. –– F. Dysfunction in the small intestine: Undigested foods will cause gut flora to become imbalanced and it will also cause irritation to the intestinal lining causing increased permeability leading to Leaky Gut and therefore, autoimmune conditions. –– G. Dysfunction in the large intestine: Undigested food can clog the ileocecal valve (valve leading from the small intestine to the large intestine) Undigested food can cause inflammation leading to colitis, irritable bowl syndrome, Crohn's Disease, Celiac Disease Nutritional Pearls For Episode 10: 1. Being in a parasympathetic state when eating is very important . 2. Proper stomach acid is imperative.

Listen in today as Christine and Jimmy talk all about carbohydrates in Episode 9. Here's what Christine and Jimmy talked about in Episode 9: 1. Review of Nutrient Classes: A. Water B. Macronutrients 1. Proteins=18% of the body 2. Fats=15% of the body 3. Carbohydrates=2% of the body C. Micronutrients 1. Minerals=4% of the body 2. Vitamins=1% of the body 2. Facts about carbohydrates A. All green plants produce carbohydrates. Carbohydrates are starch and sugar. Carbohydrates are made of three elements: Carbon, Hydrogen, and Oxygen. B. There are 2 classifications of carbohydrates: complex (starches) and simple (sugars) C. The sugars that make up carbohydrates come in many different forms: 1. Monosaccharides: most basic form of sugar; They cannot be broken down into more simple parts; They are soluble in water. 2. Disaccharides: sugars that contain 2 monosaccharide residues. It is also called a double sugar. These are also soluble in water. 3. Oligosaccharides: contain 2 to 6, rarely 10 monosaccharides. They can have many functions like cell recognition and cell binding. They can play an important role in the immune response. These are soluble in water and they are sweet to the taste. 4. Polysaccharides: like starch are composed of long chains of monosaccharide units bound together by glycosidic linkages. These are complex carbohydrate that get broken down in the mouth and the small intestine into simple sugars. The solubility of these varies. Some are not soluble in water. (cellulose). Some are only soluble in hot water (starch). Some are readily soluble in cold water (pullulan). Some can be sweet to the taste like sweet potatoes, but a lot them are not sweet to the taste like regular potatoes, rice, legumes, and lentils. How Carbohydrates Are Broken Down Sugars Larger Carbohydrates Monosaccharides Disaccharides Oligosaccharides Polysaccharides Fructose (fruit sugar) Sucrose Inulin Starch Glucose Lactose Dextrin Galactose Maltose Cellulose Pectin Glycogen D. You do not need to consume sugars in order to make them. Gluconeogeneisis. E. When carbohydrates go through the refining process, they are stripped of their nutrients. F. Eating excess refined carbohydrates and sugar can lead to nutrient deficiencies because excess consumption of these can pull nutrients out of the bones and the rest of the body. G. Carbohydrates, in the right forms like berries (in small amount with some type of fat added to it), leafy greens and non-starchy vegetables (those we eat on a ketogenic diet), do have beneficial uses in the body. 1. Carbohydrates provide a quick fuel source for the brain and proved a quick energy source for muscles. 2. Carbohydrates help regulate the fat and protein you eat. 3. A lot of carbohydrates, especially leafy greens, provide a source of fiber which helps keep our bowels moving regularly. 4. Carbohydrates help by lubricating joints. 3. Sources of Carbohydrates A. The first kind of carbohydrate you should be eating is from leafy greens and non-starchy vegetables. Try to eat as many colors as possible and in season. Our bodies weren't made to have every vegetable or fruit all year round. Try to incorporate raw vegetables. B. Next, eat whole fruits. Don't do fruit juices as they are higher in sugar and you lose the fiber from the fruit when you just drink the juice. Stick to the low sugar fruits like berries and eat them in season. C. On a ketogenic diet, you can have squash, but make sure it's the less starchy ones like zucchini and yellow squash. You can even have spaghetti squash, but maybe not as often. Butternut squash and acorn squash tend to be a little higher in starch. For those who are not eating a ketogenic diet, you can add sweet potatoes in on occasion as well as yams, plantains, parsnips, pumpkin, and others.

Listen in today as Christine and Jimmy talk all about protein in Episode 8. Here's what Christine and Jimmy talked about in Episode 8: 1. Review of Nutrient Classes: A. Water B. Macronutrients 1. Proteins=18% of the body 2. Fats=15% of the body 3. Carbohydrates=2% of the body C. Micronutrients 1. Minerals=4% of the body 2. Vitamins=1% of the body 2. Facts about proteins A. They make up about 18% of the body B. They are the building blocks of our body C. The human body uses about 50,000 different proteins to form 4 different things: 1. Nerves 2. Muscles 3. Organs 4. Flesh D. Some proteins have specialized functions like 1. Enzymes which help with all biochemical processes 2. Some proteins are antibodies. Antibodies help to fight infection and destroy foreign invaders that get into the body. E. Proteins are essential for normal growth. F. The help form hormones which help with regulation of metabolism and plays a role in just about every important function of the body. G. Some are hemoglobin. Hemoglobin contains red bloods cells which help deliver oxygen throughout the body. H. Proteins are needed for the blood to clot. I. Proteins even help control the pH of the tissues and blood J. Animal proteins are our only source of COMPLETE proteins. Proteins from animals contain all of the essential amino acids needed PLUS many that are nonessential, meaning the body can make those. Vegetables only contain incomplete proteins, meaning they do not have all the essential proteins our bodies need. The 2 best sources of vegetable proteins are legumes and cereal grains, neither of which we consume on a ketogenic diet. K. Proteins cannot be properly utilized without sources of animal fat. This is why you see protein AND fat in eggs, milk, fish, and meats. L. Our ancestors ate mostly meat (nose to tail) and SUPPLEMENTED their diets with vegetables, fruits, nuts, and seeds. 1. Our best source of zinc is from animal products 2. Usable vitamin B12 only occurs in animal products M. A high protein, low fat diet can cause problems 1. Causes too rapid of growth 2. Causes depletion of vitamin A and vitamin D and some minerals, too. N. Red meat contains cysteine which is essential for a healthy immune system. O. The sulfur-containing amino acid cysteine is also needed for making glutathione, which is a powerful antioxidant that helps prevent cell damage. P. Those 50,000 proteins combine to make 22 different amino acids and the amino acids are broken down into 4 different classes of amino acids 1. 10 Essential-the body can't make these so we have to get them from outside sources. 2. 10 Nonessential-the body can make these. 3. 7 Conditional-the body can usually make these under normal circumstances, but a sickness or stress might cause the body to not be able to make them. 4. 2 Nonstandard-these are not found in the human body but in a gutless marine worm List of Amino Acids 1. Essential Amino Acids 2. Nonessential Amino Acids 3. Other Amino Acids A. Isoleucine A. Alanine A. Carnitine B. Leucine B. Asparagine B. Citrulline C. Lysine C. Aspartic Acid C. Gamma-aminobutyric acid D. Methionine D. Cysteine D. Glutathione E. Phenylalanine E. Glutamine E. Ornithine F. Threonine F. Glutamic Acid F. Taurine G. Tryptophan G. Glycine G. Cystine H. Valine H. Proline I. Histidine I. Serine J. Arginine J. Tyrosine-thyroid function Q. Roles of amino acids 1. Forming proteins 2. Helping with neurotransmitter production 3. Muscle production 4. Hormone production 5. RNA and DNA regulation. 3. Sources Of Protein 1. Fish and seafood that is wild caught. These should be mainly smaller fish to help prevent exposure to heavy metals 2. Beef, lamb, buffalo, elk, goat, and more that is organic and 100% grass fed and grass finished 3. Poultry like chicken, turkey, and duck that is also organic and 100% pasture raised, and eggs 4. Dairy products from animals that are 100% pasture raised and organic. These include full fat cheeses, full fat cottage cheese, full fat raw milk and cream, full fat yogurt and full fat, grass fed butter. 5. Nuts and seeds like pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, almonds, pecans, macadamia nuts, pili nuts, and pistachio nuts that have been soaked and sprouted Note: These Amino Acids are not used as building blocks within the body but are still important. 4. Nonstandard Amino Acids (Not found in the human body) A. Selenocysteine-discovered in 1986 B. Pyrrolysine-discovered in 2002 (found in a gutless marine worm) Nutritional Pearl for Episode 8: Protein is essential in the right kind and the proper amounts.

Listen in today as Christine and Jimmy welcome special guest Carole St. Laurent, NTP, a “real food” nutritionist. Carole uses local, properly prepared and nutrient dense foods to restore balance and support wellness, with bio-individual strategies aimed for success. Listen in as they talk all about minerals in Episode 7. Here's what Christine, Jimmy, and Carole talked about in Episode 7: Minerals 1. Roles of minerals A. Maintains proper pH balance in the body B. helps transport nutrients across cell membranes C. Maintains proper nerve conduction D. Helps contract and relax muscles E. regulates tissue growth 2. Breakdown of Macro and Micro Minerals A. Macro Minerals-magnesium, Phosphorus, Calcium, Potassium, chlorine, sodium, and sulfur B. Microminerals-Iron, zinc, copper, chromium, selenium, iodine, boron, manganese, molybdenum, lithium (used to treat bipolar disorder), rubidium (required in smaller amounts in the body) 3. Uses/benefits of minerals A. Electrolytes 1. Salt, for most people is not an issue so don't be afraid of salt. It takes 7.5 grams of salt to raise a normal systolic blood pressure reading 5 or 6 points (140 is considered high). Salt is not good or bad. It's whether it's out of balance with potassium. (New York Times Article and JAMA study (11/23/11 by Gina Kolata “Urinary Sodium and Potassium Excretion and Risk of Cardiovascular Events” B. Calcium-Bone remodeling 1. Cofactors needed for calcium a. Systemic pH: normal blood pH should be between 7.35 and 7.45 1. When blood pH rises or becomes more alkaline, calcium is deposited into the bone. 2. When blood pH falls or becomes more acidic, calcium is deposited into the blood. b. Hydration-electrolytes and water c. Hormones-parathyroid in particular d. Other Minerals (Magnesium, Potassium, Phosphorus, Manganese, Boron, Copper, and Zinc e. Vitamins (A, D, E, K)-D needed with the Parathyroid to increase levels of calcium in the blood f. Essential Fatty Acids)-necessary to transport calcium across the cell membrane g. Digestion (proper stomach pH (Between 1.5 and 3) 2. K2 (Activator X) –K2 needed to help get calcium where it needs to go C. Zinc-healthy immunity, better wound healing, aids in stomach acid (HCl) production, DNA synthesis D. Magnesium-helps calcium do what it's supposed to do 4. Endocrine system and minerals-each endocrine gland has a mineral on which it particularly depends. 1. Pituitary Gland: Manganese 2. Thyroid: Iodine 3. Pancreas: Chromium 4. Gonads: Selenium 5. Adrenals: Copper-if adrenals aren't functioning right, they can't produce Aldosterone. If Aldosterone levels are low, your body will dump salt through urination which will lead to an electrolyte imbalance. 6. Prostate: Zinc 5. Signs of mineral deficiency A. magnesium-heart palpitations, nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite B. electrolyte imbalances: fatigue, headache, muscle cramps C. Zinc-Depressed immune system, low HCl production, slow wound healing D. Calcium-numbness in extremities E. Iron-anemia, feeling weak or tired F. Potassium-muscle cramping, weakness, constipation, bloating or abdominal pain, irregular heartbeat 6. Sources of minerals-our body can't make minerals so we have to get them from our diet. A. Calcium-milk, cheese, yogurt, broccoli, kale, Chinese cabbage B. Zinc-oysters, beef, turkey, cheese, swiss chard, pumpkin seeds C. Iron-meat, poultry, or fish, beef liver, clams, spinach, mussels, spirulina (seaweed), oysters, ginger D. Magnesium-Almonds, cashews, seeds, green leafy vegetables (spinach) E. Potassium-avocado, dark leafy greens, beets, cantaloupe, sardines Nutritional Pearls for Episode 7: 1. DON'T BE AFRAID OF SALT! 2. Our body can't make minerals so we have to get them from our diet. 3.

Focusing on topics that include digestion, adrenal fatigue, leaky gut, supplementation, electrolytes, stomach acid, and so much more, “The Nutritional Pearls Podcast” features Christine Moore, NTP and is hosted by Jimmy Moore, host of the longest running nutritional podcast on the Internet. Sharing nuggets of wisdom from Christine's training as a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner and Jimmy's years of podcasting and authoring international bestselling health and nutrition books, they will feature a new topic of interest and fascination in the world of nutritional health each Monday. Listen in today as Christine and Jimmy welcome special guest Danielle Brose to talk all about detoxification in Episode 6. Here's what Christine, Jimmy, and Danielle talked about in Episode 6: 1. Definition of toxin: any substance that creates irritating and/or harmful effects in the body A. External sources: pollution B. Internal sources: cellular wastes C. Any substance if too much, like water, sodium and almost all nutrients (in certain situations can cause a toxic environment 2. Toxins are everywhere A. Air and water pollution B. Radiation C. Chemicals D. Poorly digested foods E. Heavy metal exposure F. Bacterial/Parasitic/Fungal overgrowth 3. Detoxification is always taking place. It's the way the body heals and repairs itself. A. The vast majority of detoxification happens when we sleep. This is why it's not good to eat to close to going to bed. If we eat too close to going to bed, the body has to focus on digesting the food rather than the detoxification process. B. All the systems of the body have to be functioning properly before detoxification can take place 1. Diet: processed, lifeless food is seen as a toxin to the body 2. Digestion: If you aren't digesting correctly, the detoxification pathways can be blocked 3. Blood Sugar Balance: Blood sugar imbalances stress the liver and deplete the B vitamins which aid the liver in the detoxification process 4. Fats: fat tissue helps to protect the body from the toxins because the toxins are stored there; the fat we consume keeps the bile flowing. The bile is what removes the toxins from the body through the intestinal tract 5. Minerals: detoxification can create acidic blood. Minerals, in particular calcium, help buffer this affect 6. Hydration: helps keep the body flushing properly; needed to perspire properly; keeps blood flowing so toxins can be carried to where they need to go. 4. Systems involved in the detoxification process: A. Cardiovascular System-blood carries oxygen and nutrients to every cell as well as carrying away metabolic debris; blood helps cleans detoxification sites like the liver; blood clears the pathway for the immune system -Blood is the first thing to be affected by toxins. Once affected, it carries the toxins throughout the body affecting other systems. B. Lymph System-lymph (interstitial fluid) flows through the lymph nodes where bacteria and viruses are filtered out; helps prevent the liver from getting overburdened C. Digestive System-not only does the digestive system physically break down food, but it also does the following: 1. Scans food for invaders (bacteria, parasites) and filters them out 2. Detoxifies poorly digested, fermented toxins 3. Eliminates toxins and other unusable substances from the body -Organs of the digestive system that are particularly important to detoxification are the liver and gallbladder (cleanses and purifies blood) and intestines (provides a barrier from the rest of the body and has good bacteria which aid in detoxification) D. Urinary System-kidneys filter the blood to remove cellular waste (some water and bile pigments) E. Skin-sweat glands act like a second kidney; sweating is a very effective way to help remove toxins from the body. F. Respiratory System-lungs eliminate carbon dioxide; 5. Examples of detoxification methods A. Dry Brush Massage-helps keep lymph moving B. Bouncing Exercises C. Enemas/Colonics/Purgatives (anything that helps cleanse the body of feces) D. Sweating Therapies-Exercise All bodily functions must be working properly before you attempt to do a detoxification protocol Nutritional Pearl GET A $39 BOTTLE OF OLIVE OIL FOR JUST A BUCK GET YOUR $39 BOTTLE FOR JUST $1 NOTICE OF DISCLOSURE: Paid sponsorship YOUR NEW KETO DIET ALLY NOTICE OF DISCLOSURE: Paid sponsorship BECOME A NUTRITIONAL THERAPY PRACTITIONER Sign up for the 9-month program NOTICE OF DISCLOSURE: Paid sponsorship LINKS MENTIONED IN EPISODE 6 – SUPPORT OUR SPONSOR: Complete nutriton for nutritional ketosis (COUPON CODE LLVLC FOR 10% OFF YOUR FIRST ORDER) – SUPPORT OUR SPONSOR: Become A Nutritional Therapy Practitioner – SUPPORT OUR SPONSOR: The world's freshest and most flavorful artisanal olive oils.

Welcome to The Nutritional Pearls Podcast! Focusing on topics that include digestion, adrenal fatigue, leaky gut, supplementation, electrolytes, stomach acid, and so much more, “The Nutritional Pearls Podcast” features Christine Moore, NTP and is hosted by Jimmy Moore, host of the longest running nutritional podcast on the Internet. Sharing nuggets of wisdom from Christine's training as a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner and Jimmy's years of podcasting and authoring international bestselling health and nutrition books, they will feature a new topic of interest and fascination in the world of nutritional health each Monday. Listen in today as Christine and Jimmy dig deep into blood sugar regulation in Episode 3. Here's what Christine and Jimmy talked about in Episode 3: Normal Blood Sugar Regulation 1. Hormones involved in blood sugar regulation A. Insulin 1. Secreted by the beta cells of the pancreas 2. stores glucose in cells 3. brings glucose to the liver so the liver can convert it to glycogen (glycogenesis) B. Glucagon 1. produced by the alpha cells of the pancreas 2. helps maintain blood sugar levels between meals 3. creates “sugar” by glycogenolysis (breakdown of glycogen into glucose in the liver) and gluconeogenesis C. Cortisol 1. Adrenal hormone secreted by the adrenal cortex 2. released by the adrenal glands when blood sugar gets too low because glucagon is not sufficient 3. mobilizes proteins to be converted to glucose 4. replenishes glycogen storage (glycogenesis) 5. Stimulates the breakdown of triglycerides and the release of fatty acids from adipose tissue (lipolysis) D. Epinephrine 1. Stimulates the liver to create glucose from proteins and some fats 2. Stimulates the liver to convert glycogen back to glucose to be released into the bloodstream 3. Increases heart rate and blood pressure 2. Three main organs in blood sugar regulation A. Pancreas 1. Beta Cells release insulin when there is a need for glucose storage 2. Alpha Cells release glucagon when there is a need to make glucose a. signals the liver to turn glycogen into glucose (glycogenolysis) b. signals the liver to break down proteins into glucose (gluconeogenesis) 3. Delta Cells secrete the hormone somatostatin which inhibits gastric secretion B. Liver 1. Creates ketones from fatty acids 2. Receives signals from the pancreas (insulin or Glucagon) to store or create glucose 3. Creates glucose from proteins and some fats C. Adrenal Glands 1. Releases cortisol which mobilizes proteins to help glucose (gluconeogenesis); kicks in when glucagon is not enough 2. Releases epinephrine which helps in emergency situations by increasing heart rate, blood flow to the heart, muscles, and liver, dilates airways and determines our response to stress Nutritional Pearl in Episode 3: It's important to keep blood sugar levels in normal ranges so the adrenal glands don't get worn out INSURANCE JUST FOR KETONIANS NOTICE OF DISCLOSURE: Paid sponsorship COUPON CODE LLVLC FOR 10% OFF YOUR FIRST ORDER NOTICE OF DISCLOSURE: Paid sponsorship GET A $39 BOTTLE OF OLIVE OIL FOR JUST A BUCK GET YOUR $39 BOTTLE FOR JUST $1 NOTICE OF DISCLOSURE: Paid sponsorship BECOME A NUTRITIONAL THERAPY PRACTITIONER Sign up for the 9-month program NOTICE OF DISCLOSURE: Paid sponsorship JIMMY'S KETO LIVING SUPPLEMENT LINE LINKS MENTIONED IN EPISODE 3 – SUPPORT OUR SPONSOR: Complete nutriton for nutritional ketosis (COUPON CODE LLVLC FOR 10% OFF YOUR FIRST ORDER) – SUPPORT OUR SPONSOR: Life Insurance For Your Keto Lifestyle (Use promo code LOW-CARB) – SUPPORT OUR SPONSOR: Become A Nutritional Therapy Practitioner – SUPPORT OUR SPONSOR: The world's freshest and most flavorful artisanal olive oils.

Ketogenic diet for cancer educator Miriam Kalamian is our interview guest today in Episode 1354 of “The Livin’ La Vida Low-Carb Show.” Miriam Kalamian is a credentialed nutrition professional who found out the tragic news that her 4-year old son Raffi had a brain tumor the size of an orange in December 2004. After failing to see any improvement in Raffi’s condition with all the conventional cancer treatment methods, Miriam stumbled across the ketogenic diet through the work of Boston College cancer researcher Dr. Seyfried and his book Cancer as a Metabolic Disease: On the Origin, Management, and Prevention of Cancer. After looking into this diet further, she realized that cancer is indeed a metabolic disease and should be treated as such. When she saw how children with epilepsy are able to implement this diet into their lives therapeutically, Miriam proceeded to put Raffi on the ketogenic nutritional approach designed to produce an adequate amount of ketone bodies to serve as an alternative fuel source without exacerbating the cancer. The results Miriam saw were unbelievable and convinced her there’s a lot more to the ketogenic approach than most doctors, oncologists and cancer researchers even realize. Listen in today as Jimmy and Miriam chat about her new book Keto for Cancer: Ketogenic Metabolic Therapy as a Targeted Nutritional Strategy, treating cancer with a ketogenic diet, how the thinking about traditional cancer treatments is changing, strategies for disease prevention, and much more.

How Digestion Works Definition of Digestion: Digestion is the mechanical and chemical breakdown of food. The goal of digestion is to break down food to molecules small enough that the nutrients can be absorbed and used by the body. Proper digestion is absolutely necessary if you are going to be healthy. Every part of our body depends on our digestive system to work correctly in order to absorb the nutrients it needs to function at it's best. Brain: Digestion starts in the brain-parasympathetic state. Sights and smells trigger salivary glands to release salivary amylase. Mouth: Chewing breaks down the food and salivary amylase starts breaking down and moistening the food so it's easier to swallow. The digestion of carbohydrates starts in the mouth. When you swallow, the food that is broken down enters the esophagus as Bolus. Stomach: The stomach continues with the digestion and breakdown of food using gastric juices (Mucous, Pepsinogen/Pepsin and Hydrochloric Acid –HCl-). The main digestion of proteins starts in the stomach. Normal stomach pH is 1.5-3. Some of the functions of stomach acid: Bathes the stomach Disinfects the stomach and kills bacteria and parasites that might be harmful Acid activates the pepsin so proteins can be digested Duodenum/Small Intestine: The food that is broken down in the stomach then enters the duodenum (the upper part of the small intestine) is called Chyme. Proper pH of this chyme causes the duodenum to release secretin which triggers the pancreas to release pancreatic juices and cholecystokinin which triggers the gall bladder to release bile. The bile is what helps us digest the fats we eat. When the chyme leaves the duodenum, the food we have eaten is almost totally digested. The small intestine is where the nutrients get absorbed into the bloodstream Carbohydrates get broken down into glucose molecules Proteins get broken down into amino acids and polypeptides Fats get broken down into fatty acids and glycerol (alcohol) molecules The Large Intestine: The chyme that is not digested passes into the large intestine through a valve called the ileocecal valve. In the large intestine, water is recycled, recycles the waste materials which nourishes the colon, the large intestine captures any nutrients that are lost which helps feed the gut flora and these nutrients get converted to Vitamins K, B1, B2, B12 and butyric acid (good for gut health), and the leftovers get formed in waste (fecal matter) which is expelled out of the body. Proper digestive function is crucial for the body to be healthy – Episode 2 Nutritional Pearl INSURANCE JUST FOR KETONIANS NOTICE OF DISCLOSURE: Paid sponsorship COUPON CODE LLVLC FOR 10% OFF YOUR FIRST ORDER NOTICE OF DISCLOSURE: Paid sponsorship GET A $39 BOTTLE OF OLIVE OIL FOR JUST A BUCK GET YOUR $39 BOTTLE FOR JUST $1 NOTICE OF DISCLOSURE: Paid sponsorship BECOME A NUTRITIONAL THERAPY PRACTITIONER Sign up for the 9-month program NOTICE OF DISCLOSURE: Paid sponsorship JIMMY'S KETO LIVING SUPPLEMENT LINE LINKS MENTIONED IN EPISODE 2 – SUPPORT OUR SPONSOR: Complete nutriton for nutritional ketosis (COUPON CODE LLVLC FOR 10% OFF YOUR FIRST ORDER) – SUPPORT OUR SPONSOR: Life Insurance For Your Keto Lifestyle (Use promo code LOW-CARB) – SUPPORT OUR SPONSOR: Become A Nutritional Therapy Practitioner – SUPPORT OUR SPONSOR: The world's freshest and most flavorful artisanal olive oils.

Wellness coach, certified nutrition educator and bona fide magnesium expert Morley Robbins is our interview guest today in Episode 1314 of “The Livin’ La Vida Low-Carb Show.” As a hospital executive for over 30 years, Morley Robbins became disenchanted with the “revolving door mentality” of these “illness maintenance” enterprises. He has dedicated the remainder of his career to “saving one starfish at a time” by coaching clients how to eat “real food” and thereby facilitating the process of natural healing. We all know there are benefits to getting adequate amount of vitamins and minerals into our diets through both the foods we eat as well as added supplementation. However, many people neglect the importance of certain critical micronutrients that they need in their bodies to function as optimally healthy as possible. That’s a message that Morley “Magnesium Man” Robbins is seeking to convey to the public regarding the subject of magnesium. While Vitamin D and Vitamin C get most of the headlines these days when it comes to their importance on human health, Morley makes the argument that magnesium deserves a place at the table of discussion within the context of gaining health. Listen in as Jimmy and Morley talk about this lesser-known but incredibly important nutrient that everyone needs to be more aware of getting adequate amounts of in their diet. ENJOY!

Investigative journalist and New York Times bestselling author Nina Teicholz is our guest today in Episode 1310 of “The Livin’ La Vida Low-Carb Show.” Every five years, the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) convenes a panel of experts on nutrition and health called the Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee to determine the Dietary Guidelines for Americans. But for investigative journalist Nina Teicholz, author of the New York Times bestselling book The Big Fat Surprise: Why Butter, Meat, and Cheese Belong in a Healthy Diet, she’s concerned that that general public is not being told about the incremental move towards a vegan diet. Today’s interview guest is an investigative journalist named Nina Teicholz who has written columns for Gourmet magazine, The New Yorker, The Economist, The New York Times, and The Washington Post. After being asked by a publisher to write a book about the health impact of trans fats over a decade ago, Teicholz found a much deeper story that was more salacious and groundbreaking than even she realized at the time–the negative attention saturated fat receives as a culprit in disease was just plain wrong and the unfounded low-fat diet advice has been the most disastrous public health experiment in world history. The culmination of over a decade of research and writing has resulted in the release of her 2014 book The Big Fat Surprise: Why Butter, Meat and Cheese Belong in a Healthy Diet that has already hit the New York Times bestsellers list. Listen in to hear Jimmy and Nina discuss the latest disturbing developments with the Dietary Guidelines, the differences between her book and Gary Taubes’ classic Good Calories, Bad Calories, the history behind how the American Heart Association bought into the anti-saturated fat bias of Ancel Keys, how the anti-sugar work of John Yudkin was mocked and ridiculed by anti-fat proponents, the fraudulent way the Mediterranean diet was created (by Keys) and marketed as “healthy,” how the vilification of tropical oils like coconut oil actually led to the increased use of trans fats, how groups like the Center for the Science in the Public Interest led by Michal Jacobson have had such an influence with good and bad results, the problem with omega-6-rich polyunsaturated fats from vegetable oils producing oxidation products when heated, and so much more! This new book from Nina Teicholz takes the message of Taubes to the next level in a narrative form that makes the notion of a high-fat diet more mainstream that it’s ever been before. The tide is turning and this book is going to be a big reason why.

Hi Jimmy and Dr. Cole, I’ve been listening to Keto Talk and eating keto for the past 6 months and have lost 22 pounds so far. My blood work looks great other than my DO adding progesterone and estrogen since I am starting menopause. A strange thing happened when I started keto, though, that I’d like your thoughts about. I have noticed a large soft tissue increase in one armpit and a small one in the other. A mammogram shows just added tissue and no cancer. So, will this go away as I continue to lose weight? I am at 36% body fat so I have a ways to go, but I want to wear a sleeveless shirt again and don’t want to have surgery for this. Any information you may have would be greatly appreciated. God bless! Cindy STUDY: Novel Diet Therapy Helps Children With Crohn’s Disease and Ulcerative Colitis Reach Remission 1. Did the high-fat intake on my ketogenic diet lead to the development of gallstones? Hey Jimmy and Will, Love your show and I wanted to get your take on something that happened to me recently. I was admitted to the ER for severe pain in my abdomen and it was gallstones. They pushed hard for me to have surgery, but I chose not to since there was no infection. I’m 56, 6 feet tall, and 169 pounds while in pretty fit shape. I’ve been eating keto with periods of intermittent fasting along with Bulletproof Coffee for the past three years. Is it possible these gallstones are a result of the saturated fat and cholesterol I’m consuming? If so, then how can I return to my beloved Bulletproof Coffee, coconut oil on my veggies, grass-fed meats, and other high-quality fats? I was really shocked that this happened as I felt I had at last found the diet that was right for me. Many thanks for any insights you might have about why this happened. Jason KEY QUOTE: "You get so frustrated by all the misinformation that you wonder if it will ever change. The goood news is it is changing. Even five years ago nobody was talking about healthy saturated fats, and now it's mainstream." – Jimmy Moore 2. Should I be concerned about my “grossly lipemic” blood work that resulted from eating ketogenic with intermittent fasting? Hi Jimmy and Dr. Cole, I’ve been eating 70/25/5 keto for nearly a year with great success so far losing 30 pounds. I’m an African American, 6'1", 64 years old, and currently 195 pounds with approximately 20% body fat. I’ve also added in intermittent fasting of 16/8 on most days. I recently had blood work that showed I am "grossly lipemic.” As a result of this, there was no cholesterol recorded. EVERYTHING else was good. So, should I be concerned? Thanks, and please keep up the great work. P.S. I have converted my wife to keto from Weight Watchers. Big win! Bill 3. Since going keto, why am I have dizzy spells with normal blood pressure and blood sugar levels? Hey guys, I love your podcast and am working my way through your backlist. I’m 62 and have been eating ketogenic since May. I’ve lost over 40 pounds with about 10-20 more pounds to go. I’m eating low-carb, high-fat and have noticed my blood glucose has come down significantly since eating this way along with an average blood ketone level of 1.6. I was taking blood pressure medication prior to going keto and I’ve come off of it now that BP has normalized with the diet. I’ve noticed that sometimes I get dizzy while standing or doing light work. When I’ve tested my blood pressure and blood glucose after this has happened, they were normal at 120/83 and 82 respectively. I take a potassium and a magnesium pill every day along with L-Thyroxine for my thyroid and 3 Lyrica per day for nerve pain in my foot. Do you have any idea what may be causing these dizzy spells? Other than this, I feel fine and am having no problem staying on my diet. Thank you very much for your help!

Dear Mr. Moore and Dr. Cole, I've been reading The Complete Guide to Fasting that I got from my local library as I have been interested in this subject to manage my rheumatoid arthritis.

Natural medicine practitioner and author Dr. Datis Kharrazian is our guest today in Episode 1307 of “The Livin’ La Vida Low-Carb Show.” How many people are dealing with the negative effects of dysfunctional brain function these days? From a total lack of concentration, brain fog, afternoon fatigue and a general sense of things not being quite right in the heard, it’s an all-too-common issue people just tolerate or medicate to deal with it. But today’s podcast interview guest says there are some very easy things people can do right now to take back control of their brain health for good. Health educator Dr. Datis Kharrazian from DrKNews.com, who specializes in sharing non-pharmaceutical applications to chronic illnesses, autoimmune disorders, and complex neurological disorders to medical practitioners around the world, is back today sharing about his brand new book on this subject of brain health entitled Why Isn’t My Brain Working?: A Revolutionary Understanding of Brain Decline and Effective Strategies to Recover Your Brain’s Health.

Listen in as Jimmy and Dr. Kharrazian discuss the critical role nutrition and other lifestyle factors play in issues with the brain, gut, and overall health, his foray into nutrition and natural medicine, his frustration with the pharmaceutical model of treating disease, why the prescription drug industry is leading to a shutdown of various bodily functions, how the food solution is often times ignored by mainstream medical professionals although the public is beginning to educate themselves more, what the thyroid gland is and the function it serves.

Is it possible keto actually caused this to happen? Hi Jimmy and Dr. Will, I’m having a reaction to the keto diet that I think you may find interesting and can chime in with a few thoughts for me about it. Although I am experiencing quite a few benefits eating this way, it appears the ketogenic approach just isn’t working for my blood glucose levels. I've been eating keto for 5 weeks averaging around 26g total carbs each day, 70g protein, and 220g fat. This is tracked closely by a dietitian and my blood ketones which are measured by a finger prick are consistently above .5 mmol and usually averages around 1. However, my fasting blood glucose hovers around 200 and seems to be steadily increasing. Here's the thing: I’m not diabetic. My fasting blood glucose before keto was 93 and my A1c was 5.5. Pre-keto, while I was eating just low carb with about 70-100g/day of carbohydrates, my insulin levels were low at 1.2. It's possible that going keto has exposed an underlying problem, but it seems to me that it's also possible that keto caused the problem I’m now having with my blood sugar levels and that the diet just doesn't work for me. I'm really trying to figure out which one of these it is. Any assistance you can give about this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for this podcast and keep up the great work! David AND Hi Jimmy and Will, I am having with my morning fasted blood sugar readings in the 120s and 130s and sometimes as high as in the 180s. Two weeks ago, I was put on 1500mg of Metformin and a ketogenic diet with regular periods of fasting for 18 hours a day. So far I’ve lost 14 pounds, but this blood sugar thing is frustrating for me. I hope you have some answers for me. Thank you, From a very stressed out Tony KEY QUOTE: “If you’re going to fast, begin with a ketogenic diet because keto will cause you to be satiated and fasting will happen naturally.” – Jimmy Moore – STUDY: HIIT fights insulin resistance in women at risk of type 2 diabetes 1. Why am I experiencing an increased amount of gas since adopting a ketogenic diet? Hey Jimmy and Will, I have been eating ketogenic for about three months and while I feel pretty good overall, I have encountered a few issues that seem to be sticking around. I have been experiencing dry skin, which is very unusual in the middle of a humid summer in upstate New York. I have also been having some digestive issues that show up as gas. I do eat very healthy with high quality fats, including grass-fed and pastured meats and eggs, unrefined coconut oil, olive oil, ghee, avocados, coconut milk, coconut butter, and some nuts and seeds. But I know I am experiencing more gas than I should and I'm not sure what may be causing this. I don't eat any grains, dairy, or legumes, but something is disturbing my digestion in the worst way. Also, I’ve noticed my acne has been consistently been pretty bad as well since going keto. I would greatly appreciate any insights you can give me into these issues. Thanks for your help! Jerry 2. What can I do about the unrelenting constipation I am feeling while on a ketogenic diet? Hey guys, I’ve been eating low-carb, then keto going on five years now and I love it. But biggest side effect that I’ve experienced is unrelenting constipation. When I ate the SAD diet, I was regular everyday. But as soon as I go low-carb/keto, it's a big problem. I consume avocados, greens, and/or broccoli everyday. Additionally, I eat up to 3 tablespoons of coconut oil and it doesn't seem to help at all. A famous ketogenic doctor told me to take milk of magnesia and I tried up to 3-4 teaspoons at night and still not regular. Yes, I definitely go more often when I take that, but I don’t want to have to take a whole bottle every single week. I drink plenty of water with up to 3 teaspoons of sea salt in it. I also supplement with magnesium malate since the citrate version creates a more laxative effect. So it doesn’t appear that I'm dehydrated or lacking electrolytes. The only thing I can think of that it could possibly be is stress. I'm not overly stressed but do have my moments. Please help me figure out how to get this constipation under control while eating keto.

What is it about the low-carb, high-fat, ketogenic diet that improves skin health so much? Dear Jimmy & Dr. Will, First of all, welcome to Dr. Will who I think brings a fresh new perspective that I like to Keto Talk. On his first episode, Will mentioned as an aside that eating keto can be very good for the skin. This resonated with me because I have seen that happening in my own ketogenic journey. I used to experience super dry skin prior to eating keto using expensive moisturizers and even those didn’t help me. After 3-4 months of eating keto, I noticed my skin was super moist without any moisturizers…even when I am getting lots of sun at the beach. Amazing! So my question for you guys is this: Why is a ketogenic diet so beneficial for the skin?

Hi Jimmy and Dr. Cole, I have been listening to your podcasts for many years, Jimmy, but I have never heard the answer to the following question—Why do I never feel any hunger while eating keto? I will feel a little dizzy sometimes and even have difficulty thinking from time to time, but never any hunger. I am reading your book Keto Clarity to learn more of the nuances of nutritional ketosis and to help me understand what is going on in my body better.

Ph.D. in sports nutrition and chronic disease, and registered dietitian Dr. Ashley Lucas is our guest today in Episode 1303 of The Livin’ La Vida Low-Carb Show with Jimmy Moore. One of the most frustrating experiences is losing a significant amount of weight only to have it creep back on. On today's show, Jimmy talks with Dr. Ashley Lucas from phdadvancednutrition.com about this very problem. From her own athletic background, Dr. Lucas began her career in sports nutrition working with athletes nationwide in optimizing performance and body composition, but quickly found a passion in nutrition for obesity related issues. Referencing studies dated from the 1800’s that successfully treated the (then rare) cases of obesity, without medications, fad-dieting, severe caloric restrictions, or chronic levels of exercise, she developed a new protocol for individuals battling the continuous weight gain of today’s society. Her scientific approach focuses not only on the metabolic consequences of fat gain, but also on the behavioral and psychological aspects. The PHD approach to achieving optimal weight is truly life changing, and one that is helping people across the country achieve their peak wellness once and for all. Listen in today as Jimmy talks with Dr. Lucas about how to keep weight off once weight loss goals have been achieved and why weight regain is so prevalent, common mental barriers during weight loss, what it takes from a program stand point to see true success with weight loss and maintenance, clinical benefits from low carb eating she's witnessed (reversal of type 2 diabetes, HTN, fatty liver, skin conditions, GERD, sleep, clean teeth and so much more), exercise more as a wellness tool, eating everything in moderation doesn’t work for everybody, and sport performance and low carb living JIMMY AND DR.

I’m looking forward to hearing a lot more from you two! I have a quick question for you guys to address that I think impacts a lot of us Ketonians: Is there a life insurance company that understands the new way to look at lipid panels and related lab markers that give more credence to things like HDL, triglycerides, hsCRP, lower small LDL-P, lower ApoB, and more? It seems most of these companies prevent an otherwise healthy person from obtaining proper levels of life insurance unless their LDL-C and total cholesterol are in line with conventional thinking which we know is an incomplete picture.

Can the fat you eat on a ketogenic diet make hot flashes and swelling worse just like carbs do? Hey Jimmy and Will, I’m a regular listener to Keto Talk and love what you are doing here. My question for you guys is about whether the fat I’m eating on my ketogenic diet is making my hot flashes worse and my fingers swell. I’m 57 years old, weigh 130 pounds, and am addicted to sugar. But when I replace sugar with fat, all of these things seem to happen in my health. Is this normal? Maybe I need to cut my fat and red meat consumption and eat more vegetables. Do you guys think this is a good idea? Thanks so much, Rainny KEY QUOTE: “ If you're going to fast, begin with a ketogenic diet because keto will cause you to be satiated and fasting will happen naturally” – Jimmy Moore 2. Is eating more vegetables on my ketogenic diet the answer to my adrenal fatigue that seems to be halting my weight loss progress? Dear Jimmy and Dr. Cole, I have been on a ketogenic lifestyle since May and have not lost a single pound. I keep my carbs below 20g and went to see a ketogenic-friendly physician since I thought I was perhaps eating too much fat. In doing more research into what I might be dealing with, I suspected adrenal fatigue that has led to exhaustion and lab tests have confirmed this to be true. My keto doctor requires me to eat a lot more vegetables in my diet, but now I’m hungry again despite showing 1.0 mmol in my blood ketones. I’m a bit frustrated right now about what’s going on with me because I should be losing weight, right? Thanks for helping to point me in the right direction.

What natural pain remedies can be used by Ketonians who would rather not take medications? Hey Jimmy and Will, I’ve been experiencing an increase in pain in my shoulders, elbows, and knees since I went keto two months ago. I’m a 62-year old male who was diagnosed with hypothyroidism four years ago by an allopathic doctor and prescribed Synthroid. I never liked the side effects of that medication, so I switched over to iodine supplements to go more natural in my treatment of this. Keto has given me great energy, no more food cravings, and has zapped out my hunger allowing me to intermittent fast for 16 hours daily. I lost 45 pounds on a traditional diet before going ketogenic and have lost another 30 pounds in the two months I’ve been keto. My goal is another 100 pounds, but I need something natural to give me pain relief while I’m on this journey. Shalom, George JIMMY AND DR. ADAM NALLY’S KETO LIVING SUPPLEMENTS KETO TALK MAILBOX – Is it normal to be sick of the dietary fat you consume on a ketogenic diet by day four of eating this way? Hey guys, I was wondering if it is normal to get sick of eating dietary fat after three days of eating keto. I absolutely love it for the first three days eating high-fat foods, but then something happens by day four when I can’t even think of eating another ketogenic meal. Is this normal and will I get over this? I really want to do this diet because of all of the health benefits and maybe lose a few pounds. But I need to know if I just need to push through the feeling I’m getting and get to the point where I will enjoy keto meals on a regular basis.

Medical doctor and nutrition science blogger Dr. Peter Attia is our guest today in Episode 1302 of The Livin’ La Vida Low-Carb Show with Jimmy Moore. In this LLVLC Classic episode, we bring you one of the premier voices in the low-carb, high-fat community. Dr. Peter Attia from EatingAcademy.com was a typical medical doctor who was trained well in prescribing medications for a variety of chronic diseases. But he decided the typical high-carb, low-fat diet he was on was not optimal for managing his weight and health and he embarked on an incremental journey to start livin’ la vida low-carb. First he cut sugar, then other white carbohydrates, then starchy carbohydrates and finally cut carbs down to 50g daily along with reducing protein to 120g per day. The result was lower body fat, improved cardiovascular markers and a marked improvement in his athletic performance. Dr. Attia also believes that people should find a diet plan that works for them and stick to it, finding that consistency is key. Listen in today as Jimmy and Dr. Attia talk about what he learned about nutrition in medical school, how he found himself overweight and felt like he was doing everything right, setting out to find what the problem was, why low-carb is not a 'silly fad', doctors who thought he was “crazy” but were open-minded, “unnecessary human suffering” that takes place prior to death, the trend in newer studies focusing on calories are deceptive, the JAMA study from Pennington researchers in January 2012, and much more in this exciting episode.

Hi Jimmy and Will, I love your podcast - it's the perfect mix of nerdy science in an easy-to-understand format and I’m excited about the addition of Dr. Will Cole who maybe can help me understand something that’s happening to me right now. I started keto in October last year and I am a Type 2 diabetic who let my diabetes and weight become out of control due to uncontrolled stress the two previous years. With the exception of a few vacations where I've cheated, I've been strictly keto otherwise eating less than 20g of carbs a day. I feel great eating this way, but I’m very slowly losing weight and my blood glucose numbers just aren't normalizing—they’re averaging 200-225 in fasted readings even with taking 1500mg of extended release Metformin. I’m determined to get my diabetes under control without insulin and I’m under the care of a ketogenic-friendly physician who says it takes patience for the blood sugar levels to come down. I'm sure it does, but I'm hoping maybe you guys can explain why it takes so long for blood sugar and weight to come down as a Type 2 diabetic when it seems like I’m not getting any results yet.

Would doing a protein sparing modified fast that is low-carb, but also very low in fat and calories bring more effective ketosis than a traditional keto diet? Hello Jimmy and Dr. Cole, I recently purchased Keto Clarity and read it with a vengeance. Thank you so much for your insights, experience and expertise included in that book, Jimmy. I now feel like I have a great grasp on nutritional ketosis and how it can benefit the body. I've recently been through a trying period with my health and I ended up losing 50 pounds very rapidly due to not eating and malnutrition followed by gaining back 90 pounds when I was "better" again. I recently visited an endocrinologist to help me lose about half my body weight and I was excited when I left the appointment because she told me that I would be on a ketogenic diet! A friend suggested your book, so I purchased it and read it right away. However, after meeting with the dietitian through her office, I found out that I was put on what’s called a protein sparing modified fast. The plan is very limiting allowing only about 600 calories a day. It is also very low in fat and only includes 11 ounces of protein daily. So, after much thought and my sad attempt at researching this online, I thought I would contact you to ask this important question: Does limiting the amount of food you eat on a plan like this equal what a bariatric surgery patient would consume put the body into a more effective state of ketosis than following a more traditional ketogenic diet as described in your book? I truly appreciate any thoughts you may have on this. Sincerely, Daniella JIMMY AND DR. ADAM NALLY’S KETO LIVING SUPPLEMENTS 2. Is it possible that eating the higher amounts of protein required by the GAPS diet is causing me to plateau and even gain weight? Hi Jimmy and Will, I recently began working with a nutritional therapy practitioner and have been practicing the GAPS diet for about a week now to begin healing my gut and digestive system as well as to detoxify. Before this diet, I was following a ketogenic approach along with intermittent fasting for 16:8 naturally and then practicing 42-hour fasts three times a week and losing weight fairly easily. Now my weight has gone up some and plateaued. My NTP has asked me to stop fasting since it might deprive my body of the nutrients it needs to heal. At the first stage of the elimination portion of the GAPS diet, you eat animal meat boiled in bone broth with specifically approved vegetables like squash, broccoli, onion or cauliflower that are also boiled in bone broth. I am becoming convinced my plateau has to do with the higher amount of protein in this approach. I am only able to add animal fat to the stews and soups that are GAPS-approved and realize it's not the larger amount of fat I was eating on keto. So it seems I’m now eating a high-protein, moderate fat, low-carb diet. Do you have any insight whether or not it’s the protein that is stalling my weight loss and even gaining weight again?

Is it possible the ketogenic diet could be masking the symptoms of perimenopause? Is that why I’m not losing weight? What can be done to remedy this? Dear Jimmy and Dr. Cole, Can eating a ketogentic diet mask the symptoms of perimenopause? I have been eating a ketogenic diet for over a year after starting my nutritional health journey with a primal/Paleo diet. The pounds on the scale simply are not moving. My doctor had said according to my health markers that there is nothing wrong with my metabolism. My thyroid and adrenals were good and my A1C is 5.0 showing my blood sugar to be well-controlled. According to my doctor, my sex hormone levels indicate I am still fertile at the age of 46. When I test blood ketones, I am .5 or higher and even seeing as high as 2.2 mmol. Prior to eating clean, my cycles were becoming irregular, but after 2 1/2 years of eating well my cycles are now back on track. I am having cyclical symptoms of fatigue, moodiness, and joint pain that is not in correlation with my cycle. It's seems to be happening every 3-4 months and I am no long losing inches while gaining scale weight. Could these symptoms be perimenopausal even with a regular cycle? I am frustrated I'm not losing weight, but am grateful my health seems to be right on track. Thank you for all you do for the keto community. And thank you for answering my question. Theresa KETO TALK MAILBOX - Can my 11-year old granddaughter eat keto as long as she gets enough protein in her diet? How can we help eliminate her carbohydrate cravings? Hey guys, My granddaughter is a healthy 11-year old who is a bone fide carb junkie. She simply cannot resist eating carbage of all kinds. Both of her parents have been keto since March and I wonder if my granddaughter could eat this way as well so long as she gets enough protein. I’m a registered nurse and it seems to be safe for her to do to help get her extra weight under control. My real concern is with her carbohydrate cravings and whether they will turn into an eating disorder. We’ve already caught her hiding candy and cookies so she can eat them later and then she doesn’t eat the real food she is served at meal times. Please help advise me because I want to help my granddaughter ward off future health problems now. Thank you for your assistance.

Professor of medicine and fructose obesity researcher Dr. Richard Johnson is our guest today in Episode 1298 of The Livin’ La Vida Low-Carb Show with Jimmy Moore! In this LLVLC Classic Episode, Jimmy chats with Dr. Richard Johnson from the University of Colorado Denver as a follow up to Dr. Johnson's first appearance in Episode 223 of the podcast in January 2009 discussing his book The Sugar Fix where he hypothesized that fructose alone was the root cause behind obesity and chronic disease, Jimmy challenged him about his theory during that interview encouraging him to examine the role of ALL carbohydrates on metabolic health. And so he did. Dr. Johnson returned to discuss his newfound support for low-carb nutrition in his book titled The Fat Switch published by the great online health advocate Dr. Joseph Mercola. Listen in today as Jimmy and Dr. Johnson discuss what he found when he started researching how carbohydrates respond in the body, what led him to shift his views on the cause of obesity from fructose to all carbohydrates, and what it takes to turn on and off the “fat switch.” This is a fantastic conversation you’ll enjoy from one of the world’s top obesity researchers.

Jimmy, along with noted Toronto-based nephrologist and fasting expert Dr. Jason Fung, is the coauthor of the 2016 international bestselling book The Complete Guide to Fasting: Heal Your Body Through Intermittent, Alternate-Day, and Extended Fasting and has years of experience and knowledge about fasting to share in these engaging conversations with everyday people perfecting the fine art of not eating. Listen in today as Jimmy talks with Charlotte Ivey from IveysCulturedKitchen about how she used fasting and keto to get her health back in Episode 32. “I realized I could fast naturally when increasing my fats and not having to worry about my body weight if I was nourishing myself well enough with good quality protein, healthy fats, and vegetables which are mostly above ground and nothing too starchy.” – Charlotte Ivey GET THE BESTSELLING FASTING AUDIBLE AUDIOBOOK Here’s what Jimmy and Charlotte talked about in Episode 32: – As a child having a sweet tooth – A sugar addict when young, even though she was thin – Health deteriorated at age 22 – Lost her dad to cancer very suddenly at 20 and the stress & shock of it along with poor diet led to irregular periods, phases of depression, bad skin, poor digestion and a general weakened immune system – Got to a point where she felt like she was dying – Home from work for a week and prayed to God that she would not die – Soon came across the paleo diet and began learning about Candida and the effects that toxins, sugar, and lifestyle can have on the body – Giving up sugar/carbs was probably one of the hardest things she had to do in her life but from feeling so sick she knew her health was the most important thing – had a lot of body fat compared to bone mass having slowly crept up from UK 6 to size UK 10 by the time she reached 23/24 – Discovered fasting and began to get her health back – realized that with fasting, especially for women it's important to keep your body fat within a healthy percentage for your frame. I also – Realized she could fast naturally when increasing her fats and not having to worry about body weight if I am nourishing myself well enough with good quality protein, (i.e. Fully pastured meat) healthy fats and vegetables which are mostly above ground and nothing too – If nourishing well enough with good quality protein, (i.e. Fully pastured meat) healthy fats and vegetables which are mostly above ground and nothing too starchy I still eat carbs every now and then i.e. Blueberries / sweet – Still eats carbs every now and then i.e. Blueberries / sweet potato but from understanding her body so much now she needs very little – Within just 6 weeks of switching to a ketogenic diet, her menstrual cycle returned and has been on time ever since.

ADAM NALLY’S KETO LIVING SUPPLEMENTS KEY QUOTE: “My main concern as a functional medicine doctor is to find out what the pathway dysfunction is and to fix that first and foremost.” — Dr. Will Cole Here’s what Jimmy and Will talked about in Episode 79: – Getting to know Dr. Will Cole at DrWillCole.com – Could bioidentical hormone therapy prevent weight loss for people who are eating a ketogenic diet? Hey Jimmy and Dr. Cole, I’m a big fan of Keto Talk and want to welcome Dr. Will Cole to the show. Since he’s got a lot of patient experience regarding hormonal issues, maybe Dr. Cole can help me understand why I’m not as successful at losing weight on my ketogenic diet as I had hoped to be. I am currently taking bioidentical hormones and wonder if that could be part of my struggle with weight loss. I did Atkins four years ago and it worked fine for me then. But it’s so much harder for me this time around. Can you guys help me understand whether these hormones I am taking are sabotaging my efforts? Thanks for your response.

Can you diagnose a low thyroid function on a TSH number alone? How will keto help to fix the issues that concern my doctor? Hi Jimmy and Dr. Cole, I’m a big fan of all your books and podcasts, Jimmy, and I've been a Keto Talk listener since the very beginning. I’m excited to hear what Dr. Cole has to add to an already amazing show. I went to see a new doctor last week for a physical and she has all her new patients do some bloodwork. When the results came in (see them below), her office called me to inform me that my total cholesterol and LDL-C are way too high (230 and 153 respectively). I asked why these numbers mattered when my HDL and triglycerides are 62 and 73 respectively thanks to eating a ketogenic diet and I was told my "bad" cholesterol was too high. I wasn’t worried about it because I’d read Cholesterol Clarity and knew what really mattered. When I went to see my doctor in the office, she wrote me a prescription for Levothyroxine because she says my thyroid level is too low and that it's driving up my total cholesterol and liver enzymes. When I asked whether a higher insulin level could cause this, she insisted that I couldn’t possibly have high insulin with my normal HbA1c. She wouldn’t run the fasting insulin nor the particle size cholesterol test that I requested. And I also noticed she only tested TSH, which does seem high. But I don't know if that means my thyroid is low or not. So my question for you guys is this: Is it possible that the thyroid function is low simply based on a high TSH level? Does a ketogenic diet help with this or do I need to do other things to bring this into line so my cholesterol and liver enzymes can normalize? Thanks and keep up the good work you guys are doing!

What role does a ketogenic diet plan in helping to treat small intestinal bacterial overgrowth and candida? Hi Jimmy and Will, I'm interested in learning more more about the role of ketogenic diets to help treat SIBO and candida. I have both of these conditions and I am also breastfeeding! Most of the information I can find about this seems to target pregnancy with breastfeeding lumped into that group. I would really like to try keto but all I have read is mixed information about ketones feeding bacteria and yeast but then so do carbs. It’s so confusing!

Or is the higher cortisol serving a purpose? Hey Jimmy and Dr. Cole, My boyfriend and I listen to your podcast together and it has helped convince me that this is the lifestyle for us to follow. So thank you. After going through some significant health issues, including cervical cancer at the age of 28, I have struggled getting my hormones under control. I am perfectly healthy now except for the effects of dramatically surging hormones much more intensely than other women do. I’ve learned from your show that women are less likely to be in ketosis during their period cycle because of an increase in cortisol levels which can then lead to a stall in weight loss. But my question for you guys is this: Would taking a cortisol-lowering supplement offset the negative effects on ketosis and weight loss during that time of the month for menstruating women? Or does that higher cortisol level serve a purpose in our body and health? I get so stressed with hunger and cravings when my period hits and I’m wondering what a ketogenic woman can do to deal with this each month during her cycle.

What can be done to normalize the body’s hormone levels? Hi Jimmy and The Doc, I just came across your Keto Talk podcast and thought I would reach out to you for advice about the lap band I had removed due to erosion (hole in the stomach). I was very sad to let go of it. In my research on the effects of the lap band had on my body and eating so very little for so long, I suspect that it has taken a toll on my body and I’m now struggling to lose weight. When I consulted a medical weight loss clinic, they put me on a 1200 calorie, 120g carb diet and I gained weight in the two weeks I did it. That’s what led me to the ketogenic diet to help stave off the weight gain. Do you have any clinical experience or know about any research that looks at the use of keto for former lap banders looking for a way to keep their weight under control? I had my hormones tested and my testosterone came back at zero. I suspect having the lap band decreased my T levels from the stress it put my body through. So if the lap band changed my body’s hormone levels, what else has it changed? Is that why I’m struggling to lose weight like everyone else can? How do I figure out what I need to do since we are not all the same. Thanks so much for your help!

Why would blood sugar levels go up when taking long lasting insulin while eating keto? Hey guys, I am currently in the process of reading Keto Clarity and have begun the switch over to burning fat instead of sugar. I am a Type 2 diabetic and inject insulin four times a day. Recently I went on a road trip and forgot to bring my insulin. When I got back home, I checked my blood sugar and saw the best reading I have had in over six months. But here’s where it gets weird—when I took my long lasting insulin, the next day my glucose numbers were higher again. Why in the world would my blood sugar go up when taking insulin while eating a ketogenic diet? Any insights you have on this would be awesome. Craig 2. Could the joint pain in my knees be brought on simply by being in a state of nutritional ketosis? Hello Jimmy and Adam, I am a big fan of your podcast and have been keto for six months losing around 60 pounds. I'm now in the best shape of my life at the age of 30 and feel great with lots of energy and I actually love working out now. However, I’ve noticed I’m dealing with a lot more joint pain now than I did before eating ketogenic, especially in my knees. I thought things would improve now that I’ve taken off some extra weight. I am definitely in ketosis when I test for them and I’m trying to avoid what my mother just went through with a double knee replacement. I feel pain in the joints but don’t have any noticeable inflammation. Is being in ketosis causing this to happen? Thank you so much for your help.

Does a ketogenic diet lead to abnormally high liver function test results? Is my liver overstressed by having to metabolize the extra dietary fat? Hi Jimmy and The Doc, A few years back, I had abnormally high liver function test results and my primary care physician was concerned that my numbers got worse because of keto. My AST and ALT were around 100 and they’re supposed to be no higher than 37. At the time she advised me to start eating more carbs and all my numbers that were bad came within the normal range. I started keto and fasting again in 2016 and lost 64 pounds after my third pregnancy. I’m concerned when I go back to see my doctor next month that my liver tests will be bad again. I’m hypothyroid, but I don’t have any known liver or gallbladder issues. Is it possible my liver was overstressed by having to metabolize the extra fat in my ketogenic diet? If so, then does that mean keto isn’t right for me? I sure hope not because I feel so fantastic in ketosis. Thanks for any insight about this and thank you for all you both do! Kelly KETO TALK MAILBOX – Should I strive to have higher levels of blood ketones if I seem to be thriving in my mental clarity and energy when I am barely in ketosis? Hey Jimmy and Adam, I’ve been doing a ketogenic diet for three months as a physically active 27-year old man with 10% body fat. I’ve noticed that I feel so much better when I’m barely in ketosis at around 0.5 mmol—that’s my sweet spot where I have better mental clarity and energy. Anytime I’ve tried pushing blood ketones up by moderating protein more, my ketones rise to 2.0-5.0 mmol, but I don’t feel quite the same mental benefits as I do in the lower level of ketosis. So my question for you guys is this—should I strive for higher ketones and hope these kick in at some point to give me the benefits I desire or should I listen to my body and return to the lower level where I seem to thrive? By the way, you’ll find it interesting that I seem to tolerate more carbohydrates in my diet than more protein. I’ve been able to eat as much as 50g carbs (10% of my caloric intake) without every impacting my ketosis levels while eating just 2% more protein in my diet will kick me out of ketosis completely. Fascinating! I don’t take any supplements and don’t use any sweeteners at all. I’ve yet to find anyone else dealing with this issue, so I’d love to hear an explanation of what might be going on.

The "expert" claims that it’s not sugar that’s responsible for the growth of cancer cells but rather insulin. They conclude from this that we should not be avoiding carbs. Maybe it’s just me but isn't this "expert" just shooting themselves in the foot by drawing this conclusion? If insulin is supposed to be the culprit in causing cancer and carbohydrates are the primary instigator in these raised insulin levels, then wouldn't lowering carb intake then be a wise strategy decrease insulin? Ummm, hello? The conclusions of this "expert" are really poorly thought out and even contradictory. This type of thinking completely boggles my mind.

Hello Jimmy and Adam, I've been keto for about 6 weeks after eating Paleo for eight years. My wife and I are measuring our blood glucose and blood ketones every morning and keeping track of it. I will occasionally experience a lump in my throat since starting keto and my Google searches about this show a lot of theories about what it is, including acid reflux. We eat a very clean low-carb, high-fat, ketogenic diet with no processed foods and plenty of fresh leafy greens, grass-fed meats, butter, coconut oil, avocado, cheese, and more. Do you know what might be causing this because it seems to be a common problem reported by low-carb/ketogenic dieters. Love your show! Erik JIMMY AND DR. ADAM NALLY’S KETO LIVING SUPPLEMENTS – STUDY: Visceral adiposity and metabolic syndrome after very high–fat and low-fat isocaloric diets: a randomized controlled trial 1. Why would someone eating ketogenic experience very intense stomach pain and unbearable acid reflux? What can be done to resolve this issue? Jimmy and Adam, I love your podcast and have been on keto for six months. I am now inspired to help others start their own keto journey. Unfortunately, one of the people I’ve tried to help is a close friend who started keto about a month after I did and she has been experiencing some very intense stomach pain and unbearable acid reflux. Her doctor ran all the GI test and it all came back clear. The only solutions mainstream medicine has to offer is pills, pills, and more pills. She did suffer from bulimia for seven years and this is likely where her problem started. Do you have any suggestions on what she should do to resolve this? I’m guessing it’s a gut bacteria/enzyme issue and she’s been taking apple cider vinegar and cold water to no available so far. Thanks for al the info you are puting out! Travis 2. For someone who is skinny fat, how do get body fat percentage into a healthy range without getting too skinny? Hello Jimmy and Doc Nally, I found your podcast three weeks ago and am finding it very informative in my ketogenic journey. I’m 61 years old and could be considered skinny fat. I’ve been ketogenic for 18 months and got down to 115 pounds, but still with a body fat of 30%. I ordered a Ketonix to test breath ketones, but urine ketone testing strips show I’m in ketosis. So my question for you guys is this: Should I be concerned if I continue to lose scale weight but the body fat percentage is not getting into a healthy range?My rheumatologist is concerned that I’m losing too much weight and wonders if I'm eating enough. How do I convince my doctors that I'm doing okay? Also what body fat percentage should I be shooting for? Thanks so much! My husband and I have learned so much from you and he’s down 25 pounds while getting off his blood pressure medications. We will never go back to the SAD diet ever again. Thanks for your help, Mary HIGH-FAT LOW-CARB, PERFECT MACROS NOTICE OF DISCLOSURE: Paid sponsorship 3. Can a ketogenic diet help to heal some very painful hemorrhoids? Hi Jimmy and The Doc, I'm a big fan of your podcast and it’s been a fabulous resource for my keto journey this past year as it has healed my eczema and IBS completely. My question for you is about my husband who is experiencing some very painful hemorrhoids. He eats what he thinks are “healthy choices,” works out six days a week, doesn’t smoke, and drinks on occasion. He also had gallbladder surgery a couple of years ago. I've been trying to get him on board with keto in the hopes it could give him some relief from the hemorrhoid pain. Can a ketogenic diet help him with this? Your input is greatly appreciated! Shirin KETO TALK MAILBOX – Is a lowering of the basal metabolic rate (BMR) from eating a ketogenic diet actually beneficial to longevity? Are “normal” BMR levels too high based on SAD dieters? Hi Jimmy and Dr. Nally, I love the inspiration and support I receive from Keto Talk. Prior to going keto, a dietitian had me on a weight loss diet that included low-fat and calorie-counting. Predictably, I was constantly hungry despite losing weight eating that way. But I couldn’t maintain it and the regain was rapid. The dietitian told me that my metabolism had slowed down meaning I needed to eat less and less calories to start losing weight again. Dr. Nally has said many times that eating too few calories will lower your basal metabolic rate (BMR) and the benefits that come from the restriction of carbohydrates in the context of a well-formulated ketogenic diet. This is probably a much more complex system than we even know, but I wonder if what we regard as a “normal” BMR is different for Ketonians vs. SAD dieters since the BMR test ranges is based on mostly people eating non-keto. This might sound controversial, but what if the ketogenic diet lowers BMR and that helps improve longevity? Could it be that lowering BMR below what is considered “normal” is actually the real normal range for healthy living? I hope this question provokes a potential knowledge spill.

Can you produce ketone bodies and store boy fat simultaneously? Hi Jimmy and Doc Nally! I love your podcast and have read your books! I've been keto since January 2016 and IF regularly with some longer fasts, so I'm definitely fat adapted. I eat PLENTY of fat and I love it! I have a question today about glycogen stores and corresponding ketone readings. From what I understand, if I overdo it and eat too many carbs or too much protein or both, my glycogen stores will eventually fill up and then the leftover glucose from the meal will be converted to fat for storage. I'm wondering if filling my glycogen stores to the point of fat storage will knock me out of ketosis? In other words, as long as I'm registering a reading within the nutritional ketosis range of 0.5-3.0 mmol on my blood ketone meter, is it safe to assume that I didn't load up my glycogen stores to the point of fat storage? Is it even physiologically possible to both burn fat for fuel and producing ketones while also storing fat at the same time? Thanks so much for all that you do, and thank you for taking the time to answer my questions. Rachel JIMMY AND DR. ADAM NALLY’S KETO LIVING SUPPLEMENTS – STUDY: The cholesterol and calorie hypotheses are both dead — it is time to focus on the real culprit: insulin resistance 1. Is there something about the ketogenic diet that causes vivid dreams that lead to nightmares? Dear Jimmy and The Doc, Reading Keto Clarity last year made me realize that the keto life is the key to life, so thank you! I have question I’d love your help with that I haven’t seen a good answer to anywhere online. Do you experience what I’ll describe as “keto dreams?” Some people have shared that since eating a low-carb, ketogenic diet, they struggle more with nightmares. I had stress-induced insomnia for 10 years prior to going keto, but now that I’m sleeping better my sleep is plagued by extremely vivid dreams that oftentimes lead to nightmares. Am I suffering from some sort of deficiency in my diet for this to be happening now? Or is my body just working through the stress of bad sleep for more than a decade? Thank you very much for your help, Jezabel 2. Is chicken fat and bacon a worse meat option while eating keto because of their polyunsaturated fat content? Or does it even matter? Hi Jimmy and the Doc, I've been eating low-carb, ketogenic since December 2014. I check my blood glucose and blood ketones daily. One of the pleasures of eating keto is I get to enjoy cooking and eating real foods like pasture raised chicken and making bone broth. However, I do have a concern about the chicken fat containing linoleic acid, an omega-6 polyunsaturated fat (PUFA). I learned more about these reading The Big Fat Surprise by Nina Teicholz where she describes PUFAs as obesegenic because they store more fat in a low insulin environment while increasing insulin resistance outside the fat cells. Even Dr. Nally’s beloved bacon contains large amounts of these PUFAs as well. Did that wake you up Doc? Beef fat, lamb fat, and butter are all low in PUFAs. So my question for you guys is this: Does the choice of meat type with better fat profiles when you are eating low-carb, moderate protein, high-fat matter in terms of dealing with body fat loss goals? I’ll be listening for your reply on the show, Frank in Brisbane, Australia HIGH-FAT LOW-CARB, PERFECT MACROS NOTICE OF DISCLOSURE: Paid sponsorship KEY QUOTE: “It always comes back to fact that it's the insulin resistance, stupid. It's not the calories, it's the hormones.” – Jimmy Moore 3. Is there a keto-friendly allergy medication or remedy that doesn’t contain unwanted sugars and other culprit ingredients? Hi Jimmy and Dr. Nally, Thanks for all you do in spreading the word about the multiple benefits of the ketogenic lifestyle through your podcast. I suffer from a lot of allergies, especially grass and ragweed pollen. Over the years I've experimented with many antihistamines and their efficacies for me. Of course, Benadryl is the best, but has the side effect of severe drowsiness. Through experimentation I've found what works best for me is the CVS brand of 12-hour allergy product where the active ingredient is Chlorpheniramine Maleate. Now that I'm keto, it seems prudent to reexamine all the medications and supplements I take in terms of their compatibility with this way of eating. In my allergy medication that I like, here's the list of inactive ingredients in this product: Calcium Sulfate, Carnauba Wax, Colloidal Silicon Dioxide, Confectioner's Sugar, D&C Yellow 10, Aluminum Lake, FD&C Blue 2/Indigo Carmine Aluminum Lake, FD&C Yellow 6, Gelatin, Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose, Lactose Monohydrate, Magnesium Stearate, Methacrylic Acid Copolymer, Methyl Parahydroxybenzoate, Microcrystalline Cellulose, Pharmaceutical Ink, Polysorbate 80, Povidone, Propyl Parahydroxybenzoate, Propylene Glycol, Sodium Benzoate, Sodium Lauryl Sulfate, Sucrose, Talc, Titanium Dioxide, Triethyl Citrate. Ragweed season is fast approaching, and I will need an antihistamine product that will actually work—otherwise I will be absolutely miserable. I'm willing to take Benedryl every 4 hours if needed, but I was wondering if there is a long-acting antihistamine you advise your highly insulin resistant patients to take which will have minimum insulin and glucose response. I’d like to avoid the confectioner’s sugar, sucrose, and other suspect ingredients in that CVS brand if possible. This seems like an issue that might affect a lot of your listeners. Thanks for all you do in reaching and teaching so many about the ketogenic lifestyle! Leezah KETO TALK MAILBOX - What’s the best way to determine what the right level of carbs, protein, and fat are for my ketogenic diet? Hi, Jimmy and The Doc! Thank you for writing Keto Clarity and doing the Keto Talk podcast sharing your wisdom about the ketogenic lifestyle. I’ve been keto since January 2017 and have lost 15 pounds. While I eat low-carb, high-fat, I’m still struggling about how to figure out exactly how many carbohydrates, how much protein, and how much fat to eat. I follow a keto group on Facebook that gives me inspiration, but they don’t believe excess protein gets converted into glucose as I’ve learned from you guys. If you disagree with their version of keto, then they shame you for not understanding the diet. In fact, when I asked about testing my blood ketones recently, one person responded that eating 20g carbohydrates will automatically put you in to ketosis. I know this isn’t true, but it’s made me think about how I can go about discovering what the right level of carbs, protein, and fat are for me. Can you guys help? Thanks for all you do!

Are they beneficial while eating ketogenic? Jimmy and Adam, Various spices are reputed for their glucose lowering effects. For example, apple cider vinegar, fenugreek, and cinnamon are all well-known to decrease blood sugar levels and I’m sure there are many others. My question for you guys is this: What impact does ingesting these spices have while on a ketogenic diet specifically on BHOB blood ketone levels. I currently take fenugreek because I learned about the glucose lowering effects in a study when it slowed the absorption of the carbage these SAD dieters were eating. But since a well-formulated keto diet has very few carbs to begin with, would the fenugreek provide the same benefit or may it even backfire given that fenugreek is almost 60% carbohydrates? I realize blood sugar lowering isn’t the same as ketone-boosting, but I do see the two going hand-in-hand. So what do you think? I realize this might be a question without a clear answer, but I’d still love to hear your thoughts. Thanks for the very informative and helpful podcast.

Does a ketogenic diet lower insulin levels and provide ultimate healing for insulin resistance which seems to be genetic? Hi guys, I'm a recovered diabetic thanks to eating a low carb (but not necessarily ketogenic) diet. I used to be on the maximum daily Metformin dosage and took 130 units a day of long-acting insulin. I’m off all of those medications now and have an A1c of 5.3. I lost 60 pounds fairly easily on low-carb, but now it’s stalled out. My insulin levels are still very high, so I assume I’m still quite insulin resistant which is making the weight loss stubborn. I’ve added in some intermittent fasting of 18/6 as well as a few 24-hour fasts on the weekend where my blood ketone levels have reached about 1.0 mmol. My question for you guys is this: Does your experience show that a truly ketogenic diet lowers insulin levels? Some experts I’ve heard have said that research shows that insulin resistance is pretty much genetic which means you may not be able to drop it below some arbitrary level no matter what you do. Do you agree or disagree with this? Thanks for answering my question! Mark HIGH-FAT LOW-CARB, PERFECT MACROS NOTICE OF DISCLOSURE: Paid sponsorship 2.

I started keto in January 2016 and have noticed since eating this way that I don't have as many aches and pains as I once did. I have only been able to lose 10 or so pounds, my blood pressure is somewhat high at 138/85, my AC1 is 5.7, and my urine cortisol levels are fairly high at 188. Could incorrect pressure in my CPAP machine have anything to do with not being able to lose weight despite the fact that I’m burning ketones according to the Ketonix which always shows me blowing red for higher levels of ketosis? Thank you for your time, Kurt 3. Can a high-dose Vitamin C IV treatment spike blood sugar levels alone or is there hidden glucose causing this? Hey Guys, We love your podcast and anxiously await the new episodes each week. My wife and I have been low-carb for two years and keto most of the time for the past year. I travel about 18 days a month so it’s hard to maintain a state of nutritional ketosis all the time. We are 60 and 61 years old and we keep our blood ketone levels between 0.5 to 1.0 most of the time. Our question is about rising blood sugar levels after getting a Vitamin C IV from our functional medical doctor. My wife and I have both been getting this treatment lately because our bloodwork showed that we are low on Vitamin B and C even though we take supplements for both of them. After the first Vitamin C IV treatment, my blood glucose level rose to 172 and my wife’s went to 284 about 1 hour after the treatment. Our normal fasting blood glucose levels are between 77-95 depending on how we ate the day before. Needless to say, we became concerned this would have a negative impact on our insulin resistance. When we asked our doctor about it thinking that there must be some glucose in the IV bag, she said that it was just a reaction to the high dose vitamin C and that there was no glucose in it. We had already paid for two treatments each, so we did it again this week and this time our blood sugar went up to 144 and 128 respectively an hour later. Have you ever heard of this kind of reaction or do you think that there was some glucose in the IV? Our doctor knows that we practice low-carb and she is monitoring us because she’s still quite skeptical.

Hello guys, Back in Episode 12 of Keto Talk, Dr. Nally mentioned that cortisol levels rise as a direct result of an injury or surgery and that depending on the extent of the damage to your body and the repair it needs, it might kick you out of ketosis for 2-12 months. So my question for you is this: When you are out of a state of nutritional ketosis during this recovery period and assuming that you stay on a ketogenic diet, what exactly is my body using for fuel during this time? And what is happening to all the dietary fat I am consuming? Thanks for a great and very informative podcast!

AFFORDABLE KETONE TESTING AT LAST KEY QUOTE: “I needed to reduce inflammation, heal my brain, and get my immune system in check. I knew that ketones do all those things so I started a ketogenic diet for my health.” — Shawn Mynar Here’s what Jimmy and Shawn talked about in Episode 73: - What can I do to heal my adrenals and thyroid issues while on a ketogenic diet? Do I need to heal these prior to going keto? Hey guys, I have been attempting to do a ketogenic diet since last July and it works wonders for my MS symptoms (I first heard about it from Dr. Terry Wahls). The issue I'm having now is adrenal fatigue and thyroid issues. I’m taking low-dose Synthroid, but I’m tired, nauseous, depressed, and feel cold all the time. Despite keeping my carbs under 30g total daily eating only whole foods, I have gained 20 pounds in two months. Since the adrenals and thyroid are connected, is it possible that I’m eating too low-carb for my stressed out adrenals? Or I am I not low-carb enough? You guys often say on Keto Talk that hormones dictate everything about your weight and health, but something is going on with me that I can’t seem to figure out. I feel like crap most of the time despite being on the healthiest diet I've ever eaten in my life—no gluten, no soy, no dairy, no sugar, 3-5 cups of fresh veggies, full fat coconut milk, grass-fed meats, cooking with bacon grease, and 1/2 cup of blueberries daily. Is there a way to heal my adrenals and thyroid with the ketogenic diet or do I need to heal these first before going full keto? Really love the podcast.

Does keto take away your period and lead to undesirable health effects? Should I add in starch every few days to deal with these issues? Hey there, I recently read this article by a naturopath named Dr. Lara Briden: http://www.larabriden.com/are-you-eating-enough-get-period-amenorrhea/ In the post, she claims that eating a low-carb, ketogenic diet will take away your period. I've still not had a period since I started keto over 20 months ago. I also developed all four of the signs she mentioned: low T3 (non-Hashimoto's hypothyroid), hair loss, constipation, and insomnia. I average 5.5 hours of less-than-restful sleep per night with sleep aids and high-dose melatonin waking up every couple of hours. I'm desperate to know how I can tweak my ketogenic diet to favor fertility. My naturopath knows very little about keto and I’m not sure she can help me. I’ve been strict keto with 20/4 intermittent fasting for a while, so I wonder if I could get away with some starch every few days to see if that helps. Between my infertility and profoundly low estradiol, it just know it has triggered my binge eating.

Should I eat both low-carb and low-calorie in order to get into ketosis and see the results I’m looking for? Hi guys, I have listened to all of your podcasts, some of them twice as I’ve become a sponge with the information. My question for you is about breast cancer and ketosis. I was diagnosed with breast cancer 3 1/2 years ago and have had radiation and on tamoxifen for over three years. Cancer is what led me to start listening to health podcasts. During the cancer treatments, I put on 5kg (11 pounds) and it all seemed to develop in my midsection. I have tried low-carb and even keto, but can’t seem to get into ketosis no matter what I do. You guys have said many times on your podcast that some women need estrogen to help with weight loss, but I’m wondering if perhaps I need to be eating low-carb AND low-calorie in order to get the best results. When I’ve done keto previous about 8 years ago when I was at a bodybuilding gym, I lost a significant amount of weight very quickly. But I just can’t seem to get there now. I also take antidepressants to help with hot flashes and realize these have a side effect of weight gain. Can you help me? Jacki in Brisbane, Australia KEY QUOTE: “I just keep it simple.

How can I get the benefits that ketosis provides my autoimmune arthritis without the unwanted weight loss that happens when I eat keto? I have been enjoying your podcasts and reading your Keto Clarity book. I started on a ketogenic diet to help with my autoimmune arthritis and I think I've been making some progress. Unfortunately, I’m losing weight and I don’t need to be. I’m 5’2” tall and actually underweight at 91 pounds. My goal is to be at 105 pounds. Despite shoveling down 75% fat in my diet, I just keep losing weight. Tracking my nutrition with an online tracker, it says my calories are higher than are required for me and yet my weight keeps dropping despite the fact I feel good. Should I choose being in ketosis and controlling my arthritis while losing weight or eating a few more carbohydrates to get out of ketosis in order to get back to normal weight again but dealing with the arthritis? Got any suggestions? I'd so love to get back some of my feminine curves again. Karen KETO TALK MAILBOX - How do I need to adjust the macronutrients on my ketogenic diet in the late stages of my pregnancy and while breastfeeding? Should I add more protein? Hi guys, Love the show! You are doing an amazing service, so keep up the good work. I’ve been keto for four months and I’m doing great losing 25 pounds and dropping my A1c from 5.6 to 5.0 in just two months of eating this way. My husband went keto at the same time as me and has lost 40 pounds. Needless to say, our doctor is ecstatic about our results. We’ve heard people joking about being careful when you go keto and normalize your hormones because it might just make getting pregnant easier—well SURPRISE, here comes baby #4! Are there any recommendations about how to adjust the macronutrients of my ketogenic diet for the second and third trimester and even once I started breastfeeding? I usually eat around 80% fat in my diet with protein around 70g and carbs at 20g. I’m definitely making sure I consume at minimum of 2,000 calories daily so I don’t stress my Hashimoto’s or my adrenals that I’ve worked so hard to heal over the past four years. Should I eat a bit more protein as the pregnancy continues? You guys will find this interesting that the way I found out I was pregnant was my ketones suddenly dropped to 0.3 after always registering 1.5-3.0 and on a hunch we did a pregnancy test. Whammo bammo, pregnant. Crazy right? I’m so thankful to be keto-adapted heading into this pregnancy and hoping it will keep my notorious severe morning sickness at bay this time around. Thanks again!

And which is more important as a health goal—lowering blood glucose levels or insulin levels? Hey guys, I understand that blood glucose can rise on a ketogenic diet due to the physiologic glucose sparing effect you guys have discussed several times on the podcast. In his new book FAT FOR FUEL, Dr. Joe Mercola shares his solution to this by simply eating more carbs and thus trigger an insulin response to bring the glucose down. Of course, if you eat more carbohydrates in your diet to make this happen, it will invariably kick you out of ketosis. So in light of this, it begs the question: which is worse for you to have—higher glucose levels or higher insulin levels? Is there another way to bring blood glucose down without triggering insulin to go up? Maybe some light exercise would do the trick? Thanks for answering my question.

Hi Jimmy and Adam, Thank you for all that you're putting out there regarding ketogenic living. I first came across you Jimmy when you did a podcast with Dave Asprey a few years back and have listened to all of your Livin’ La Vida Low Carb Show and Keto Talk episodes ever since. I've been experimenting with keto on and off for the past few years. I don't do it for weight loss since I'm a lean 32 year old male at 8% body fat with high muscle mass and in very good shape (I can run a sub-6 minute mile, deadlift 3x my body weight, etc.). I follow keto for constant energy, mental acuity and longevity purposes. When measuring my blood glucose levels while in keto, I find that they're quite high: 100-120 fasting blood glucose and up to 140 postprandial. I'm aware of physiologic insulin resistance, but the numbers nonetheless concern me; I just had blood labs done and my HbA1c was 5.8, up from 5.2 which were my numbers a year ago while on a moderate carb diet. My triglycerides have also gone up from 54 in February on moderate carb to 97 today. My total cholesterol has risen from 180 to 225 but that's to be expected on keto. My testosterone is a bit on the low side for my age at 450, but it’s been this way regardless of whether I'm on keto, moderate carb, or have taken a week off of training (I was hoping keto would raise it). Dr. Dominic D'Agostino acknowledges that for certain people, keto simply isn't the answer. Although I feel healthy eating this way, my blood work results seem to indicate otherwise. Am I one of those people who flourishes on moderate carb eating and the occasional fast and keto just isn't for someone like me? It's worth noting that my mother who is in her mid-60's is in spectacular shape with great lab numbers without ever going to the gym and she has always eaten a carb-laden diet. One more interesting note to share with you is my body composition is identical whether I’m eating keto or high carb. So, with longevity being one of my top priorities alongside stable energy and mental acuity, what nutritional approach do you think I should do to reach my goals? Thanks a lot for your help! Chris 2. Is it possible to create acidosis from your diet and exercise choices? How can you prevent this from happening? Hi guys, Thank you for your work as it's an absolute asset to so many of us. I started doing 2 workouts a day of weight lifting and running or walking. I’ve noticed I started having painful urination as well as my side started hurting recently. When I checked my urine ketone levels several times, they were always extremely dark. After reading a graph on Dr. Andreas Eenfeldt’s website about acidosis, I became concerned. I immediately ate a bunch of carbs from ice cream and other sources to try to deal with this issue and stop the pain by driving down the ketones. I also drank some baking soda mixed with water since I thought this had to do with acidity. Amazingly, 8 hours after doing this I STILL showed ketones on the urine ketone sticks. So then I ate some chili cheese fries bringing my total carb consumption that day to 500g. It's now been 3 days later and my body had never stopped producing ketones. It went to small levels at one point when I skipped my workout for a day. I'm a type 2 diabetic with chronic kidney disease who's used straight keto for about a year and have never seen anything like this. If I have a carb-filled meal, this will usually kick me out of ketosis for 4-5 days. So, have you seen acidosis happen as a result of diet and exercise? What are some things I can do to prevent that from happening again? Thanks for your insights on this!

Is there any added benefit to taking one month off from keto annually vs. constantly staying in nutritional ketosis? Hey Jimmy and The Doc, I have listened to most of your Keto Talk podcasts as well as some LLVLC podcasts and they are both informative and entertaining. What I take from hearing people like Dr. Eric Westman, Dr. Ted Naiman and Dr. Nally is that the hormone insulin is what controls and signals the storage or burning of fat and that lower insulin levels (outside of being a Type 1 diabetic) is healthier. It seems that intermittent fasting, keto, and exercise all lower insulin and improve health. Many of the arguments point to the evolution and hunter gatherer hypothesis of storing fat in times of plenty during the spring and summer and then burning stored body fat during the winter and when food was in shortage between animal kills. The problem with the modern-day SAD diet is that there are too many carbs in our diet that leads to elevated insulin levels which then results in insulin resistance and your body is constantly storing fat, never using it in times of need which never come, and leaves the individual perpetually hungry to eat and eat and eat. My question for you guys is this: if we are designed to store and burn fat and alternate from using ketones and glucose as our fuel source, then isn’t this an argument for cycling in and out of ketosis on a regular basis? Since getting keto-adapted takes about 4-6 weeks for most people, why wouldn’t doing 11 months of keto with one month of a non-ketogenic diet be better than eating keto 24/7/365? I have not found any studies on this and I would imagine the change in diet would be good for the body to serve as reset for just one month a year. I know yo-yo dieting is bad for your overall health and that there is a risk of a relapse to your old ways when you get off of keto that could prevent you from going back to it again. But there might be real benefits to this as it probably better resembles how our ancestors evolved in their nutrition and may help reset your body to get better results after long-term ketosis. What do you think? Colin HIGH-FAT LOW-CARB, PERFECT MACROS NOTICE OF DISCLOSURE: Paid sponsorship KETO TALK MAILBOX - Why does my health seemingly deteriorate when I go too low on carbs and improves again when I add back in rice and other carbohydrates? Hey Jimmy and The Doc, I’m loving my new lifestyle change using fasting and a ketogenic diet to address my Hashimoto's and weight loss concerns. I started on New Year’s Day this year and I’m already down 44 pounds and feel fantastic most of the time. However, I have noticed that if I fast too much or keep my carbohydrate intake too low over a week that my health deteriorates with an increase in my level of fatigue, slower metabolism, severe depression, and thyroid symptoms rearing their ugly head. In my research into this, it all seems to point to reverse T3 levels which I’ve found is fixed when I eat a bowl of rice and start eating more carbs again.

Dear Jimmy and Doc Nally, Thank you for doing what you do. My life has changed thanks to this podcast. I have a quick question you guys: I recently got my Pathway Genomics results and the report said that my genes would benefit from a LOW FAT, higher carb diet. I have been keto for a year and I was shocked to see this. The report suggested my fats should be comprised of 20-25% of my diet, protein 20-25% and carbs 50-55%! I shuddered when I read this. It also said my body can process monounsaturated fats better than animal fats. What gives? Do my genes just not lend themselves to a keto diet? All the best, Esma KEY QUOTE: “If your low-carb ketogenic diet is working, why would you cheat and put your body through that?” – Jimmy Moore STUDY: Submitted by Dr. Dallas Peak, MD who was taken in by the use of the phrase “benign dietary ketosis” (BDK) to describe nutritional ketosis 1. Why did my symptoms of Raynaud’s syndrome seem to get worse when I started eating keto? Hey Jimmy and The Doc, I went gluten free years ago and Paleo was the next natural step. I have had autoimmune issues my whole life and my doctors couldn’t figure it out. One of them once told me, "we usually only see these symptoms in overweight people", but overweight I am not. When first going Paleo, I made a drastic mistake without knowing it. The Paleo crowd was all about the bananas and potatoes back then so that's what I did. Even though I am not big fans of either of these they were the least offensive carbs and it seemed to help. A few months ago I decided to go with a ketogenic approach doing it the correct way this time. I still have fruit in the house for my kids but I have not touched it. I never had the low-carb flu and within a week was sleeping like a rock for the first time in years despite living the stressful life of being a single mom. Joint pain did not flare up as much and my migraines are not showing up as often. My question for you guys is this: I have always been plagued with Raynaud's syndrome. It lasts all year long, not just in the winter. I have noticed that since I do not feel hungry on a regular basis it is easy to go many hours without food while out running errands without noticing how long it has been. My Raynaud’s then rears it's ugly head and I feel it. I'm not sure if it's going too long on an empty stomach or something else happening, but the Raynaud's is the only thing that has gotten worse since I started eating keto. Do you know why this is happening? I am already taking a magnesium supplement to help. Even if you guys have no solution for me, I will just suck it up buttercup and deal with it as I have in the past because the benefits I am getting from nutritional ketosis far outweigh the cold hands and feet that I have always had to deal with anyway. Listening to Keto Talk, it is very clear to me that you guys have a goal of helping people and getting correct information out there. I am so glad I found your podcast. Thank you both for your time and effort and keep up the great work. Sarah 2. Why did I start experiencing very sore spots on my skin when I decided to cheat on my low-carb, ketogenic diet? Hey Jimmy and The Doc, I recently found your podcast and have greatly enjoyed getting caught up on all the episodes! I have a question that might actually be a new one for you as I haven’t heard it discussed on your show before. I have been eating low-carb, ketogenic with weekly cheat days as Tim Ferriss outlines in his book The Four-Hour Body. After about six months of doing this, I noticed I would wake up with very sore spots on my skin following a cheat day. It seemed to be concentrated on my torso and sometimes on my upper arms, neck, and scalp. This soreness was on the surface of the skin, not the muscles or joints. The best way I can describe it is it felt like a giant bruise that was only painful when you pressed on it. My skin would be so sensitive that I would skip running or other exercise that day because the mere bouncing of my skin was too uncomfortable to bear. The surface area of skin that would be sore seemed to correlate positively with how much crappy carbage I splurged on the previous day. Interestingly, the first areas to become sore were the areas in which I tend to store fat, such as the love handles, and the soreness would radiate out from there. If I had a really obscene cheat day, then even my upper leg skin would get sore. Very surprisingly, this phenomenon did not go away when I went back to the high-carb Standard American Diet for a period of time. It seemed anytime I indulged in something particularly sugary/carby, my skin got sore. This soreness would only subside after a day of eating low-carb keto again. So my questions for you guys is this: What could be causing this? Is it just a rapid-onset generalized edema resulting from a significant increase in carbs? Why did it not begin occurring until a good 6+ months into eating low-carb and why did it persist after I went back on a high-carb diet? Have I permanently altered how my body reacts to carbs by going low-carb for so long? Finally, should I be concerned about this? While trying to find answers to these questions online, I saw this “sore skin” phenomenon mentioned by a couple of people on low-carb diet forums who claimed they never experienced this before going low-carb. But none of these references included any explanations other than "possible edema". Thanks so much for your help and your wonderful podcast! CD JIMMY AND DR. ADAM NALLY’S KETO LIVING SUPPLEMENTS 3. Can Adderall be having an adverse effect on getting into ketosis? And does keto do anything to help improve adult ADHD? Dear Keto Talk hosts, I am a 62-year old female and have been moving to keto through the usual progression—it started 20 years ago trying to eat local and real food, then on to WAPF, then Paleo, and now low-carb, ketogenic consuming 20-40g carbohydrates daily. Most of my carbs come from salad, kefir, cheese, and kombucha. My blood sugars have been coming down but I am still in the high 90s for fasting blood sugar in the morning. I have only seen .5 once on the blood ketone meter. I am trying to figure out what might be preventing ketosis for me and I have a couple of suspects. Because I have some of the MTHFR family of variations, my doctor has me on 1000 mcg of L-methylfolate and adenosyl/hydroxy B12. I am also taking 10 mg daily of Adderall. Would any of these be having an adverse effect on getting into ketosis? And does ketosis have any positive effect on improving adult ADHD? I’d really love to get off of that medication if at all possible. Thanks for any insights you can provide. Stephanie KETO TALK MAILBOX - Why can’t I stay in ketosis eating what seems to be a well-formulated low-carb, moderate protein, high-fat, ketogenic diet? Hey Jimmy and The Doc, I listen to your Keto Talk podcast all the time and I have been doing keto for nearly 2 months. I am 6'7" and weigh 220 pounds with 16% body fat. I started keto for all the health benefits, energy, and disease prevention it provides. I eat about 100g protein, less than 20g carbs, and 200g of fat. This all seems right to me and I am being very strict with it. I get lots of sleep, am not stressed, and have experimented with exercising a little and not doing any exercise. There’s only one problem: I JUST CANT STAY IN KETOSIS! I bought a blood ketone monitor and the highest reading I have seen is 1.2 for a very short 2-day period and most of the time I am less than 0.5. Every morning I wake up I am 0.2 and then it’ll rise to 0.6 mid day and once in awhile I'll get to 0.8 in the evening or sometimes it goes the other way and I'll drop back down to 0.3. I eat bacon and eggs in the morning with coffee, MCT oil, and full fat whipping cream as well as high-fat meats and cheeses or cream cheeses for lunch and supper. The frustrating thing for me is my wife is getting 2.5-3.5 on the ketone meter eating the exact same thing I am. HELP! I hope you have an idea why I can't stay in ketosis.

JIMMY AND DR. ADAM NALLY’S KETO LIVING SUPPLEMENTS KEY QUOTE: “People that have been fasting and are farther along in their journey tend to opt for better quality food choices like eggs that are truly free-range.” – Megan Ramos Here’s what Jimmy and Dr. Fung talked about in Episode 23: Some special iTunes comments that Jimmy and Megan address at the top of the show TESTIMONIAL: Jimmy, I’ve always had troubles with my triglycerides since I gained weight after college. When I had them tested in December, they came back at 4543 mg/dL. These results were so shockingly high that they had to do the tests twice to verify the number! In January I started researching options for lowering my triglycerides and came across intermittent fasting. I eased into it over a two-week period to get acclimated from the sugar withdrawal, along with cutting out all of the bad white foods in my diet. While I was going through this, I came The Compete Guide to Fasting audiobook. After listening, I felt confident that I was on the right track because for once the science actually made sense. So I started adding 36-hour fasts on the weekend and had my triglycerides tested again. The results came back at 748 mg/dL. I’ve also experienced a weight loss of 15 pounds. So, I just wanted to say thanks. I’m currently listening to Keto Clarity and considering adding a ketogenic diet to my fasting. Robert WORLD’S 1ST REUSABLE BREATH KETONE ANALYZER NOTICE OF DISCLOSURE: Paid sponsorship 1. What are the specific dangers and concerns of doing a fast without medical supervision? Hey guys, Can you go over the dangers of doing a 7-day distilled water-only fast without any medical supervision? I am on a very tight budget and can’t really afford to go see the doctor to monitor me. When I asked my personal doctor about fasting, he said that I should monitor my urine pH levels and that if they get too acidic to stop the fast. But he didn’t say what level that is. Would you concur with this? I know you can’t endorse doing a fast without medical supervision, but for folks who are going to do it anyway, is there any advice that you can give? Thanks for your help, Margaret KEY QUOTE: “You can test for your level of inflamation, and if it's elevated then both fasting and a ketogenic diet are great anti-inflamatory methodoligies.” – Jimmy Moore 2. Is it possible to heal a food reactivity/allergy like eggs and dairy with a water-only fast? Hey Jimmy and Megan, I really really really want to permanently heal my reactivity to eggs where I experience itchy eyes, nose, lips, along with a runny nose. And I’ve done every friggin’ thing under the sun food-wise: supplements, keto, autoimmune protocol, Paleo, and fasting. At some point, my reaction to eggs inevitably returns and I need to give them up for a while. Have you seen people who have fasted permanently find success healing their reactivity to eggs and dairy? Success in my world means no symptoms or inflammation-related weight gain. I haven’t attempted a water-only fast yet and this is the next thing I would like to try. I realize this is probably going to be a long-term project and not something I’m going to knock out in two weeks. Thank you all for the encouragement and realism: progress, not perfection is my motto now.

Is it normal to experience stomach pain that disrupts sleep when fasting for more than 24 hours? Hey guys, I love listening to Fasting Talk and reading your book. I’ve been IF for a year now. Started with 16/8 and then have been doing 18/6 for a long time. I’ve done a few 24 hour fasts, a 48 hour fast, and most recently a 42 hour fast for the purposes of fat loss. My question for you guys is this: Is it common to get stomach pain when fasting for more than 24 hours? It's not hunger pangs, but feels like gastritis pain. In fact, the pain wakes me up at night it’s so bad. I don’t feel this pain when I’m eating and I only find relief from it while fasting when I drink spiced tea. Have you had any IDM patients deal with anything like this? Thank you, Monika 4. Does combining a ketogenic diet with intermittent fasting cause a delay in the menstrual cycle or even missing a period? Hi Jimmy and Megan, I have been doing IF and keto for about a month and half and I love the combination because it allows me to enjoy real food when I eat and gives me excellent mental clarity. My purpose in IF and keto is to prevent Type 2 diabetes since my A1c has been 5.8 the past couple of years. I’m already seeing my blood sugar and A1c drop, so I’m very happy with my nutritional choices. However, I do have a concern that I’ve noticed. Before my IF and keto protocol, my periods usually come every 38 days. But since I changed my diet and added fasting, it has been 46 days since my last menstrual cycle and I still have no period. Does the combination of IF and keto cause a delay in the menstrual cycle or even missing a cycle? Keto Talk and Fasting Talk are my favorite podcasts and they’ve helped me so much.

Is there a degree or certification for ketogenic diets and fasting that you can recommend to guide clients nutritionally? Hi Jimmy and Megan, I'm a personal trainer and want to go to school to become a registered dietician. But since my desire is to promote the ketogenic diet, I’m concerned seeing so many RDs facing backlash and possibly losing their license for going "off-script.” As a personal trainer, we are supposed to educate our clients on how to eat, but all they promote is the government-recommended low-fat diet. I also want to promote fasting to my clients, but I’m not sure whether there is a degree or certification I could obtain to properly guide my clients.

RESERVE YOUR TICKETS TODAY! KETOFEST.COM NOTICE OF DISCLOSURE: Paid sponsorship - Is there concern about very high levels of bile acid from a high-fat ketogenic diet leading to an increased cancer risk? Hi Jimmy and Adam, I was listening to Dr. Rhonda Patrick on Joe Rogan’s podcast where she mentioned that bile acid, namely, deoxycholic acid, is necessary to emulsify fat for absorption in the intestine and that a high consumption of fat – over 60% of calories - on a regular basis means the body is subject to higher levels of this acid. She stated outright that deoxycholic acid in higher than usual quantities causes damage to the DNA, even going so far as describing it as carcinogenic. Dr. Patrick noted that a ketogenic diet will ultimately result in the failure of the enzymes whose function is to repair DNA and thus will put the person at greater risk of cancer. I am a Type 2 diabetic and have maintained a ketogenic diet for the past year. I was persuaded to adopt this diet by reading Keto Clarity and am regularly in a state of nutritional ketosis. My last HbA1c was 5.2% and my fasting insulin level was 4. I can’t imagine adopting some other approach despite the concerns about the higher levels of deoxycholic acid required to emulsify the fat. But is Dr. Patrick correct in her assessment of this cancer risk with keto? Thanks for your help! Rob from Australia STUDY: Rethinking nutrition labelling: Food is not just the sum of its nutrients 1. How do you handle dealing with hypoglycemic episode when you go on a ketogenic diet? Does adding in carbs resolve the issue? Hi Jimmy and the Doc! Thanks for a great podcast! I really enjoy the information, and particularly when The Doc geeks out on us. My question for you guys is about hypoglycemia. If a person starting keto experiences a hypoglycemic episode, what’s the best way to deal with it? I can do 2-3 days of a keto diet but then on the 3rd or 4th morning I wake up with low blood sugar levels and experience nausea, feeling shaky, unfocused, and sometimes seeing brown spots. My blood glucose dips into the 40s and resolves after eating an apple, or some raisins, or some sweet potato. But then I feel like crap for the whole day. I don’t get this reaction when I simply eat lower carb with some sweet potatoes or fruit during the day. But I really want to experience all the full benefits of being ketogenic. I know I can't possibly be the only one who struggles with this. Thanks and keep up the good work! Marie KEY QUOTE: “If you make a change in your diet that goes against the conventional wisdom of the medical community and it gets results, they can't help but pay attention to what you're doing .” – Jimmy Moore 2. What is inflammation and why is it the evil bogeyman in our health? How exactly does a ketogenic diet lower inflammation? Hey guys, The keto community tends to throw around the topic of inflammation A LOT without much explanation about what it is. I think I know what it means, but I'm not 100% sure and I would venture to guess that most people don't. Can you address this on the podcast and how exactly a ketogenic diet helps lower it? Thanks for your help, Rob HIGH-FAT LOW-CARB, PERFECT MACROS NOTICE OF DISCLOSURE: Paid sponsorship 3. Does consuming fermented dairy like cultured butter cause a rise in insulin to cause hunger? And will eating this kick me out of ketosis? Hi Jimmy and the Doc, I love your show! Although I’ve been at a healthy weight all my life, I’ve decided to follow a ketogenic diet to have a more positive relationship with food and to balance my moods. Your podcast has greatly inspired me! I recently bought a pack of cultured butter at the grocery store and after having some for the first time, I noticed that I was craving more of it which usually never happens when I consume fat. After doing some research I discovered that fermented dairy products tend to have a higher glycemic index than non-fermented. What is the impact of cultured butter on the hormones that control hunger and cravings? And could consuming fermented dairy products knock me out of ketosis? Valerie from Ontario, Canada KETO TALK MAILBOX - Is it common knowledge that the AMA promotes ketosis for a greater sense of well-being and pain reduction at the end of life? Hey Jimmy and Adam, I just lost my grandfather to pancreatic cancer. He chose to have no artificial nutrition through a feeding tube and IV in the last few days of his life. I believe that this allowed him to go into ketosis and eased his passing. I also found a reference to ketosis being beneficial at the end of life in an American Medical Association (AMA) publication. In researching this further, I found the following statement in the Education for Physicians on End-of-life Care Handbook by the AMA: "Educate families about the studies that demonstrate that parenteral or enteral feeding of patients at the end of their lives neither improves symptom control nor lengthens life. Help them to understand that anorexia may be protective, as the resulting ketosis can lead to a greater sense of well-being and diminish pain." So my questions for you guys is this: Is this common knowledge in the medical community in general? We were never told this by any of my grandfather’s medical caretakers and instead were encouraged to have him drink Boost with 20-30g sugar/serving right to the end. In light of this, could exogenous ketones have helped him ease the pain more and remain lucid enough to engage with the family a period of time longer before passing? I really hope that you can share about this on Keto Talk. At least this community may be able to help a dying loved one by NOT pushing sugary drinks on them even when the nurses and doctors insist. Or possibly asking for no dextrose in their IV, especially if the patient has already said that he is ready to pass. It may be helpful to share the AMA reference with family members and caregivers, and explain what ketosis is and that the patient may not be feeling hunger. Those of us who have experienced ketosis know this firsthand. It takes courage to go against mainstream thinking, especially in the world of medicine and health. I appreciate that you do it every day with your podcasts, blogs, and books.

Why did I turn yellow and feel unwell at the end of a 7-day fast? Dear Jimmy and Megan, I recently completed my first 7-day fast and I felt GREAT with tons of energy. I would have continued, but I literally turned yellow and looked desiccated, haggard and unwell. I’ve completed a number of 4-5 day fasts in the past with much less of a problem than anything like this. Have you run across this in the IDM clinic and should I push through and hope it will this improve with time? I don’t have diabetes or any other underlying medical problems. Thanks! Elizabeth 2. Does fasting raise blood pressure levels? Hi guys, For the last month, I have been doing the 5:2 version of fasting as a warm-up for some of the protocols you set out in your fasting book. I’m 46, not diabetic but I am overweight with a BMI of 28, and I’m hoping fasting will prevent the development of Type 2 diabetes, lead to weight loss, and re-calibrate my eating habits. So far I’ve lost 4 pounds, my clothes are looser, and I no longer feel polluted inside. Fasting days are not always easy, especially in this cold northern England climate, but I still look forward to them! I have recently started having significantly higher blood pressure readings than usual (138/75 upon waking). I’m not completely sure why this is happening, but I did recently complete a course of prednisone for asthma and a chest infection. I also have a busy job with two lively young children. Enough said, right? But I have heard from people on a 5:2 fasting forum that fasting itself may have caused my elevated blood pressure. Is it true that fasting leads to an increase in blood pressure levels? Thank you for the book and the podcast. I’ve learned so much from both and use them to inspire me when fasting gets hard.

Is there a difference between drinking distilled water and filtered water when you are on a water fast? Hey guys, What’s the difference between drinking distilled water vs. filtered water on a water-only fast? Is there any benefit to using one over the other? Thanks for your help! Jane JIMMY AND DR. ADAM NALLY’S KETO LIVING SUPPLEMENTS KEY QUOTE: “My blood pressure went down significantly while fasting, so did blood sugar, insulin and all of the markers you would expect.” – Jimmy Moore 4. Should I be concerned about my appetite dropping on feasting days to match my fasting days during an intermittent fast? Hi Jimmy and Megan, I love listening to Fasting Talk and I have a question for you guys. I’ve just started alternate day fasting and I’m fasting on 500 calories (M, W and F) and then eating normally the other 4 days. It’s going pretty well for me so far, but I’m finding that on the “normal eating” days my appetite has reduced a fair bit and I’m not wanting to eat the same amount as I did prior to beginning alternate day fasting. My concern is if I reduce the amount of food I eat to fit with my lowering appetite levels that it will begin to creep downward to where it is on my non-fasting days. Am I at risk for slowing down my metabolism doing this? As someone who has spent most of her life as a yo-yo dieter, I’m really worried about rebound weight gain from doing this. Can you offer any tips on what I can do to prevent this from happening? I am loving alternate day fasting and really getting into the groove with it. Help me optimize the results I’ll get from it. Thanks for this great podcast…it’s at the top of my listening list! Leanne in New Zealand WORLD’S 1ST REUSABLE BREATH KETONE ANALYZER NOTICE OF DISCLOSURE: Paid sponsorship 5. Do the watery stools/diarrhea that can happen during and after a fast be an indication of and come from gut bacteria dying off? Hi Jimmy and Megan, I am one of those people who ends up with watery stools during and after I break a fast. I’ve spent a lot of time thinking about why. I know Jimmy mentioned that he was also puzzled as to what is coming out when nothing is going in during an extended fast. Is it possible that some of the bowel bacteria (which I understand make up a good deal of stool) are dying from not being fed? And since they are dead, they are eliminated from the body while extended fasting? It certainly smells like something died in there. I also wonder whether some of the health improvements of fasting occur because of the elimination of carb-loving bacteria and replacing them with the ones that survive better while fasting. I imagine those are the bacteria that would have thrived inside our ancient ancestors who regularly fasted. Is there any merit to my theory? Thanks for the new podcast, I never miss it!

Can I fast if I am still nursing and would an intermittent fast be better than extended fasting for the milk? Hi guys! I’m excited to see this podcast because I have had so many questions about fasting. Currently I am nursing and most likely will be for another year. Can I still fast? I’m wondering about how fasting affects the milk with all the detoxing that takes place? Would an intermittent fast be better than longer fasts while I’m nursing?

Can I fast for a couple of days prior to running a marathon to more efficiently burn fat for fuel during the race? Hey Jimmy and Megan, Thanks for doing Fasting Talk. It’s been a useful, professional, and inspirational guide in building my fasting knowledge. I made my first fasting attempt this week and made it 48 hours with my typical intense workouts (hard running on one day and swimming the next day) just to see what would happen. To my surprise, I had lots of energy to power through my workouts. So my question for you guys is this: Is it a good idea to fast for two days prior to running a marathon? My goal is to efficiently burn fat for fuel during the race, so will this strategy help me? Thanks for take the time to answer my question. Adriana JIMMY AND DR.

Does pain symptom improvement while extended fasting mean the damaged cells are removed or is it simply the inflammation going down? Hey guys, I have been suffering with awful post nasal drip for over a year along with a sore Achilles heel and I thought my running career was over (I’m a long distance runner and keto athlete). I began fasting in January consuming water, tea, and bone broth. By the 36-hour, my post nasal drip had vanished and some tooth pain I was having had disappeared as well. By Day 5, my Achilles pain was 50% more tolerable. I felt so good on Day 7 that I continued my fast. I’m currently on Day 9 and ran 10 miles yesterday. I noticed my Achilles pain was minimal during that run and the morning stiffness I had been experiencing has vanished. Finally, my nagging tennis elbow in my right arm is now pain-free. Does this mean that the fast has perhaps eaten all the damaged cells that were causing all these symptoms? Or is it more likely that my inflammation is down significantly as a result of the fasting to allow healing? Fasting ROCKS and thanks SO much for your work sharing about it! I’m so excited about this podcast and The Complete Guide To Fasting. THANK YOU! Theresa 5. Does black coffee activate enzymes in the liver that prevent someone who drinks it during a fast to experience the full benefits? Hey guys, Love this podcast! Thank you for all you are doing for people all over the world! Keep up the great work. I was curious, I heard one of your fellow podcasters Dr. Rhonda Patrick (Find My Fitness podcast) state that even black coffee activates some enzymes in the liver. She noted that this means technically a fast that allows for black coffee is not a true fast. Personally, I feel I get the benefits of my 24 and 36 hour fasts even with my black coffee. My question for you is this: In light of this information from Dr. Patrick, can we still experience autophagy and other fasting benefits while drinking coffee? Or do we only get these benefits from a water-only fast? Thank you!

ADAM NALLY’S KETO LIVING SUPPLEMENTS HOT TOPIC: How much to eat on feasting days to distinguish from fasting days? 1. Why do I have a tight feeling in my throat while I’m extended fasting? Is it my thyroid detoxing or something else? Hello Jimmy and Megan! I’m now 4 1/2 days into my first ever 7-day water fast. Thanks to The Complete Guide to Fasting, I was well-prepared and I managed the first two days just fine and the hunger pangs are all but gone now. I’m sleeping soundly, and my daily energy levels are sufficient enough to handle my normal activities, but I don’t feel like there’s enough gas in the tank for my normal exercise routines. I do have a few worrisome symptom that I wanted to ask you about. I’ve noticed a tight feeling in my throat starting in the morning of Day 3. It’s located around the hollow of my neck just at and above the level of my collar bone. It’s actually something I used to feel all the time, before I adopted a cleaner way of eating over a year ago and that sensation has been gone for several months. But now it’s back with a vengeance since I commenced extended fasting. It seems to be where I think my thyroid is, so of course I’m wondering if my thyroid is suffering or just detoxing and getting healthy and strong again. Any ideas about what might be going on? Bless you for resurrecting the important tool of fasting! I had all but given up on shedding these extra 10 pounds that suddenly appeared a couple years ago. I’m thrilled about reforming my eating habits, improving my blood sugar, and EASILY eliminating wheat and artificial sweeteners, and of course the weight loss.

Would limiting my fasting to non-training days be best for someone like me doing Brazilian jiu jitsu? Hey Jimmy and Megan, About two years ago I was living a sedentary lifestyle and weighed 275 pounds at 5'9". Now I'm down to 190 pounds after a lot of hard work and not drastically changing my eating habits other than cutting out sodas, cakes, and other sugary snacks. I'm what you might call a "fatthlete" (fat athlete). I train Brazilian jiu jitsu five days a week and I'm a little worried about fasting because from what I understand about it vigorous physical activity can cause problems for people. What are your thoughts on circadian fasting or fasting only on days I don't train? Would those be better fasting options for me? Thank you in advance for your advice, James 4. Is it okay to engage in a fast post-surgery? What are the advantages and disadvantages? Hi guys, I’m so glad I found Fasting Talk. I already listened to Keto Talk and this new podcast makes my life complete. What I want to know about is if there are any guidelines for fasting after surgery. Is there a time period when it’s not advisable to fast post-op? Or does it depend of the surgery? I had my appendix out just before Christmas and while I felt fine doing a 40-hour fast in the week afterwards, my husband got rather anxious about me doing this. I have been doing a 20-4 intermittent fast most days for the last year with occasional longer fasts. But I haven’t found any information about fasting post-surgery anywhere.

Can you fast consuming green vegetable juice and coconut water? How about with the Master cleanse? Hi guys, I’m curious to know if you would ever recommend fasting on green vegetable juice and coconut water? Also, I’ve heard about a lot of people having success doing the Master cleanse which uses lemons and maple syrup? I know the latter has a lot of sugar but maybe this works best for people who are more insulin sensitive. Any thoughts on this?

In The Obesity Code, Dr. Fung writes about a lot of adaptations that happen during fasting including a rise in epinephrine.

Why am I not getting the same benefits from fasting now that had I previously when I fasted? What can I do about it? Hey Jimmy and Megan, Many years ago, I would regularly fast twice weekly for 24 hours at a time. I experienced improved energy, weight loss, improved body composition, and lower inflammation levels. I then fell off the wagon for a few years with changes in employment and other life circumstances. But in recent months I have started fasting again and follow a ketogenic diet when I’m feasting. But I’ve noticed since coming back to fasting again that the amazing benefits that I had previously aren’t happening. Do you have any recommendations for someone like me who has seen the positive impact of fasting before and is not seeing it now? Why is this happening? Thanks so much for answering my question. I am loving the new podcast…it's so motivating!

Which fasting protocol is best for weight loss? How do you lose weight doing IF? How long before you burn stored body fat while extended fasting? Dear Jimmy and Megan, Thank you for creating this podcast on fasting. My question for you is about weight loss. What is the best fasting strategy for losing weight? I’ve heard that when you fast, it takes about 24-36 hours for your glycogen stores in the liver to become completely depleted and then you begin to burn your own stored body fat for energy. If that's true, then intermittent fasting would seemingly not work for losing weight because after about 16-20 hours of IF you start eating again. So how is it possible to lose weight on IF? Thus, it seems that extended fasting would be better than IF for the purposes of weight loss. Am I right? And how long does it take before you start losing stored body fat during fasting and not just water weight? Thank you so much. I just listened to your audiobook for The Complete Guide To Fasting.

What are the signs of electrolyte imbalance during a fast and what are your best tips for replenishing these electrolytes on a water-only extended fast? Hi Jimmy and Megan, I have engaged in extended water fasting twice—one 5-day fast and one 8-day fast. Interestingly, I experienced brain fog and tiredness throughout these fasts and I’m thinking I might be having issues with keeping my electrolytes in balance. So what are your very best tips for replenishing electrolytes during an extended water fast? And what are the signs to look for that electrolytes are out of whack? I’m planning on doing an even longer fast the next time and your advice is appreciated. I took a multivitamin, fish oil, lite salt (for the sodium and potassium), and Himalayan rock sea salt. Thank you for your help! Adam 5. Why don’t you recommend coffee enemas during an extended fasting for the added cleansing benefits it provides?

I am a Mental health clinician and am one course short of finishing my Masters of Health Administration. I live in Victoria which is on Vancouver Island in British Columbia. Like most people, I have tried everything to “stay healthy” and lose weight. But nothing really worked for long.

Hey Jimmy and Megan, Fasting has totally changed my life, so thank you for sharing on this podcast. I have a few questions for you that I would love to hear the answers to. How often can you engage in extended fasts of five or more days? And how can I be sure that I don’t regain all the weight I lose while on an extended fast?

Why did my fasting blood glucose spike on the day after an alternate day fast? Does eating this Mercola-styled meal actually enhance your fasting? Hey guys, I am really enjoying Fasting Talk. I love and appreciate Dr. Fung's ability to relate info in a way that anyone can understand. And, of course, I have listened to you, Jimmy, for a long time. I am loving Megan Ramos and look forward to hearing more from her on upcoming episodes. My question for you guys is this: I practice alternate day fasting and I take my blood sugar reading the morning after a fasting day. Much to my surprise, my last reading jumped 25 points! I have read that sometimes this happens when hormones such as cortisol, glucagon, and epinephrine are released causing the liver to release glucose. Incidentally, I did eat a small meal of 3 ounces of ham and 8 ounces green beans about 3-4 before bed, so possibly that is the culprit in my higher reading. Dr. Joe Marcela was the one who recommended eating a meal consisting of 500 calories or less with 20-30g protein and 8 ounces of green vegetable to enhance my fasting so I thought I’d give it a try.

What would be the benefits of fasting for only two days when it seems the most results coming after that? Hey Jimmy and Megan, Thanks for the awesomely informative podcast! I'm pretty familiar with keto, but I’m absolutely clueless about fasting. I have a question for you guys to address today about fasting. Several things seem to spike up during the first few days of fasting before going down again. Doesn't this mean that doing a two-day fast means you are only getting the worst part of the fasting experience? Don’t people who do this short of a fast deny themselves of seeing the ultimate benefits of seeing these things coming back down again and feeling good on the other side?

Why did I experience hypoglycemia in Day 2 of an extended fast? What can I do to prevent this from happening again? Hi guys, I've read The Complete Guide to Fasting and have been loving the Fasting Talk podcast. As a science teacher, I really appreciate how you present the information. I initiated what I wanted to be a four-day fast and maybe longer recently. I made it to the 32-hour mark before experiencing signs of hypoglycemia. I was shaky, dizzy, faint, and very weak despite my heart rate at around 100 bpm. When I checked my blood sugar, it was down to 33. Because I didn’t feel safe to drive at the moment, I decided to drink 8 ounces of pomegranate juice since that was the only thing I could find to bring my blood sugar back up. I assume it improved because the symptoms decreased a bit and I made it to work safely. I'm generally healthy except for elevated cholesterol and a bit of excess weight and I'm hoping these things will be fixed by fasting and keto. Any thoughts on what happened here and should I be concerned? If I try to do an extended fast again, do you have any tips to prevent this the next time? Thanks for your help! Heather JIMMY AND DR.

Julian GIVE YOUR ELECTROLYTES A SUGAR-FREE BOOST USE COUPON CODE “LLVLC” FOR $10 OFF NOTICE OF DISCLOSURE: Paid sponsorship TESTIMONY: Hey Megan, I just wanted to tell you how your advice to switch it up is working for me. I'm on my second time through a 6 day cycle of 3 days fasting followed by 3 days feasting. Before I started, I was eating keto to satiety and slowly gaining weight. I was eating a lot at night, eating lots of macadamias, and drinking wine. So, I was primed for a change. My first day of a 3-day fast started with keto coffee (lots of coconut oil and a pinch of cayenne). Midday I had a mug of bone broth with a Tbsp of butter melted in it. At night I went right for salt-water with a dash of Chipotle chili pepper powder. I use Morton lite-salt so I can get some Potassium. On the second and third days of the fast I only drank black coffee and my hot salt-water concoction. At the end of the 3-day fast my fingers were getting cold but I had lost 7 pounds. I broke the fast with a handful of nuts and then a big meal after about 30 minutes. I feasted for 3 days eating 2 meals a day within a 6-hour window for an 18-hour intermittent fast. I know I overate a couple times with plenty of butter and macadamia nuts for lots of fat—lots. I was poaching burgers in butter, eating rib eye steaks, fried fish with keto breading, and an entire jar of tartar sauce. Still, I didn't gain an ounce in the 3 days that I feasted. Yesterday was my first day back to fasting. I started the day with keto coffee again, and my salt-water concoction with 1 tbsp of butter, and a couple more of those without the butter later in the day. This morning I had lost another 3 pounds. So, that's 10 pounds in 7 days—the most weight I've ever lost in a week. Ever. Also, last night my blood sugar was the lowest I've ever recorded it at 66. The first day of fasting is challenging, even the second time around. Last night I was dreaming of fast food. But, I got over it, and it was smooth sailing again here on Day 2. This pattern seems to really be working for me and I plan to continue on this path until it stops working. Thanks for the great advice. You guys are awesome.

Does eating a small amount of food in the middle of an extended fast impact my insulin levels and fasting efforts? Hey Jimmy and Megan, I love The Complete Guide to Fasting and have learned so much from it and your Fasting Talk podcast. I have a question for you guys. I started my fast on Thursday at 7:30pm and went until 11:30pm Saturday temporarily breaking the fast with 1 Tbs of natural peanut butter and a few bites of brussels sprouts. Then I decided to fast all day Sunday throughTuesday at 7:30 PM. All in all, it was a total of five days with that little bit of food. What if anything did that food break do to my insulin levels and fasting efforts? I have three small children and can’t check my insulin levels, so any insights you can provide would be greatly appreciated. All the best, Brieanne 2. Can someone with bulimia or binge eating disorder engage in fasting? Would this be beneficial or detrimental towards their efforts of overcoming it? Dear Jimmy and Megan, I have read your book on fasting and it was so full of great knowledge that I am grateful for. I am currently breastfeeding, so I am not fasting right now. But I am looking forward to start fasting soon. In your book I took notice of how people with eating disorders, specifically anorexia, shouldn't be fasting and this makes a lot sense. But what about people who have bulimia and binge eating disorder? Should they also steer clear of fasting? Are there any physical or hormonal benefits to be gained for someone like this to start fasting or will this simply perpetuate the binging behavior. Thanks for this podcast and for your amazing work!

Can you guys talk about the health effects of what is known as Diurnal Fasting where you engage in complete abstinence from food and beverages during daylight hours? Is this a good way to fast and are there any potential downfalls to doing it this way as compared to what you teach in the IDM clinic? Thank you, Catherine 4. How will I know when I am fat-adapted enough to push my fasting periods beyond intermittent fasting? I have been doing some form of LCHF/keto since August 2016 and have lost 30 pounds. I've been following the mantra to only eat when I’m hungry which is how I started unintentionally intermittent fasting. Most days I end up doing 18:6 but just can't get past 20 hours.

I used to be a woman who struggled with fasting but it was because I was making one major mistake that is more common among women and less common among men. Women are much more likely to under-eat by a significant amount of calories, then they overtrain in their workouts, and on top of that try to incorporate fasting into their health strategy. When you under-eat and also fast, the body thinks you are starving and I have heard Dr. Fung speak about this inducing starvation mode. Would you please underscore to your female listeners in particular that if you eat an adequate number of calories when you are feeding that fasting is not only fine but it can actually help to reset your circadian rhythm and other bodily functions? It has helped my body balance my hormones in a way that even nutritional ketosis could not on its own. I would love to start a women's fasting group on Facebook and I hope I can invite you all to join. Thanks again for this great podcast.

Hi Jimmy and Megan, I’m a 56-year old woman who started fasting with a goal of lowering my blood sugar and losing weight. I just finished a 24-day water and black coffee fast and ended my goal of 30 days because of extreme nausea. By Day 8, I started to drag a bit and so I began drinking some homemade bone broth. But then I became nauseous from drinking the broth a couple of days later and ditched that. A few days after that the coffee I was drinking made me nauseous, too. By Day 15, I was only drinking water and pushed my way to Day 24 before ending it. Why did I have such extreme nausea while fasting? Thank you for helping me with this! Corinne KEY QUOTE: “Some people that have more damaged metabolism have a harder time getting into ketosis, and that can cause nausea. ” – Megan Ramos 2. Does fasting make the symptoms of the autoimmune disease Hashimoto’s better or worse? Hi Jimmy and Megan, From what I read about fasting, it seems to be a potential therapy for autoimmune conditions. But thyroid specialist and neurologist Dr. Datis Kharrazian says that one of the 10 mistakes that Hashimoto’s patients make is the following: “When blood sugar gets too low it raises the inflammatory messenger IL-6 and promotes autoimmune flare-ups. Symptoms of low blood sugar are most noticeable between meals or if you skip meals and include shakiness, blurred vision, crankiness and irritability, and loss of function. If you feel a jump in your function and energy after eating it confirms your blood sugar was low—when your blood sugar is stable the only thing you should feel after eating is not hungry. Constantly skipping breakfast and missing meals will aggravate your autoimmune response and promote autoimmune flare-ups.” I know Dr. Fung has said there is no impact to the thyroid when fasting. But do we know what impact fasting has on Hashimoto’s? It seems the autoimmune disease is made worse by fasting, not better. I am under the care of a functional medicine doctor and have adopted all of his proposed lifestyle changes to heal my Hashimoto’s. I tried a two-day fast and saw ketones rise to 7.7 mmol and blood glucose drop to 58 before I broke the fast. It was a water-only fast with sea salt and occasional bone broth. Two days later, I didn’t feel great and developed a sore throat with excessive sleeping. Did I have a flare up of my Hashimoto’s from fasting? Thanks, Maria 3. Does fasting lead to the development of the “keto rash?” Hi Jimmy and Megan, I have been in nutritional ketosis for over two years and have successfully trained for and ran in two marathons over the past year in a fasted state. I have read The Complete Guide To Fasting and have undertaken my first extended fast which lasted four days. During the fast I had a recurrence of what appears to be a so-called “keto rash” which I have had on and off since I've been eating ketogenic. I am wondering if Dr. Fung has seen this in his fasting and ketogenic patients and what could be causing this. Is this something to be concerned about when fasting?

What is the shortest fasting time for getting the autophagic benefits of fasting and do adding in nutrients negatively impact autophagy? Hey guys, I was afraid of dealing with hunger and stressful work situations at the same time if I fasted. But hearing Jimmy talk about drinking kombucha and bone broth during his fast was my "aha" moment! And I have now lost 14 pounds in 6 days doing intermittent fasting for 24 hour while enjoying coffee with cream and Perrier eating only one low-carb meal a day. But I am interested in getting the benefits of autophagy with my fasting. So I have a few questions about this: 1) What's the shortest fasting window to still trigger significant autophagy? 2) Do MCT oil, small amounts of heavy cream, coffee, bone both or sparkling water negatively impact autophagy? Thanks guys! Melodie 5. Is it advisable for someone who is not overweight to engage in a fast? Hi Jimmy and Megan, Fasting seems to be most helpful for obesity and diabetes control. But there are so many other benefits of fasting that are extremely crucial for all of us, not just those with weight and blood sugar issues. I am in the minority and feel like a minority because I am not overweight and I have pretty much have been the same weight forever. What kind of fasting if any would be advised for someone like me who is not dealing with excess weight but would like to get the other benefits of fasting such us immune system reset? It seems to me our ancestors, who were not overweight, were fasting without any major negative impact on their health. Is fasting just for overweight people? Thank you for all you do, Maria KEY QUOTE: “When you're losing fat from fasting, it's not that you've reduced calories, it's the fact that you've reduced insulin and the fat can be released.” – Jimmy Moore 6. Isn’t the half-pound of body fat you lose daily while fasting simply “calories out?” Hey Jimmy and Megan, Dr. Fung has thoroughly debunked the calories in, calories out model numerous times. But when he talks about the two compartment model, he notes that the fact that a pound of fat contains about 3500 calories of energy. So while fasting you can lose about half a pound of body fat a day. So my question to you is this: Wouldn’t that be considered "calories out?” If so, then is the “calories out” equation different from the “calories in” one?

Hey guys, I greatly enjoyed reading The Complete Guide to Fasting and I love this new podcast. My question for you guys is regarding the use of fiber while fasting. What is your opinion about taking fiber-based supplement powders that are devoid of any sugar or artificial sweeteners? I typically take a combination of different kinds of fibers like inulin, acacia, glucomannan, psyllium, and flax. I did not see this addressed in your book.

WORLD’S 1ST REUSABLE BREATH KETONE ANALYZER NOTICE OF DISCLOSURE: Paid sponsorship Here’s what Jimmy, Megan, and Angel talked about in Episode 12: - How can I maintain the lower blood pressure numbers from extended fasting when the fast is over? Hi Jimmy and Megan, Fasting topics almost always focus on obesity and diabetes. I'd like to hear you guys discuss how you can lower blood pressure with extended fasting. I've done four extended supervised water fasts and each time I've been able to get great blood pressure numbers without the need for medication. Unfortunately, over time, my high blood pressure comes back probably because I haven't cleaned up my diet. I would love to hear more about how to keep the numbers down.

How can I do longer fasts when i have to cook for my family of five on a nightly basis? Hi Jimmy and Megan, I love this new podcast! The longest I have ever gone during a fast is 24 hours, but I would like to go longer in fasting. I have PCOS, insulin resistance, and fibromyalgia. My problem is I have a family of 5 and I cook for them most evenings and this can trigger me to want to eat. As you can probably guess, my family eats a clean version of the SAD diet and I am the only one who eats keto in the house. How do I make a longer fast work in this context? Would meal prepping ahead of time help in these situations? I would like to fast for 36 hours and then try to do longer fasts. Thank you for your insights, Georgette 2. Can fasting help with the exhaustion phase of adrenal fatigue? Is IF or extended fasting better for dealing with this? Can you please explain how fasting can help with adrenal fatigue? keep reading conflicting information on this subject and I am unsure whether fasting is right for me. I am currently in the "exhaustion" phase of adrenal fatigue, so my question for you is whether I need to get the adrenal fatigue under control first before fasting or will fasting help me with this condition? And what kind of fast would you recommend? Is intermittent or extended fasting better for dealing with the exhaustion phase of adrenal fatigue?

Would drinking aloe vera juice on a fasting day break my fast? Hello Jimmy and Megan, Thank you so much for creating Fasting Talk. I have read your book The Complete Guide to Fasting and started alternate day fasting. So far, I’ve seen some great benefits doing this, including feeling fantastic, a sharp mind and focus while working, and weight loss. I have one question for you about fasting days—can I drink my aloe vera juice in the morning while fasting? Would this break the fasting period? Thanks for your help, Kishore 4. Is it okay to still chew nicotine gum while fasting? Hi Jimmy and Megan, I got your fasting book and have been doing a 16:8 fast on a regular basis. This might be a strange question, but can I chew nicotine gum when I am fasting? Much regards, David 5. How do you prevent the loss of electrolytes and minerals when you are extended fasting? Hi Jimmy, I keep hearing you talking about fasting, fasting, fasting all the time. But if you fast with zero food for 7 days, for example, how do you not lose electrolytes and minerals? Don’t you need to drink more than just water to keep from becoming sick? I am a little confused about all this. Thanks for your help, Victoria JIMMY AND DR.

GIVE YOUR ELECTROLYTES A SUGAR-FREE BOOST USE COUPON CODE “LLVLC” FOR $10 OFF NOTICE OF DISCLOSURE: Paid sponsorship SPECIAL GUEST PATIENT: Angel Ramos (aka Mr. Megan Ramos!) I grew up in Orlando and ate a typical diet throughout the first 25 years of my life. I did cut out soda/pop in my teens and noticed that I lost some weight without any change to my physical activity but I was still overweight with a poor body composition. I stayed up late, ate crap junk food and drank in university and grad school. My weight peaked while on holiday in Germany as a graduation trip, 235 pounds at 6'2". I noticed new stretch marks, a marked drop in my energy levels and my clothes were tight! I was starting to get concerned about my future health and what could happen given my family medical history of diabetes, high blood pressure, heart attack, and Alzheimer's. I'm a scientist and I enjoy researching, so I went to work. With the limited nutritional knowledge I had and novice workout experience, I started reading various sources online. There are some great fitness subreddits that really helped me to understand what I needed to do. I started tracking my calories, lowered my fat intake, upped the protein and began a weight training and cardio regiment. After about 9 months of exercise and diet, my weight was about 220 pounds and I was significantly stronger in the gym, but I still had plenty of fat. This is where my story changes, I met Megan Christie (Ramos). After we had been dating for a few months, treating every trip to see each other as a vacation and eating junk, Megan explained the IDM program to me in detail and I was blown away. I began to see that by eating tons of processed/refined carbohydrates, I was only hurting myself. I also began fasting when I started eating an LCHF diet. Our cavemen ancestors certainly didn't get lucky and have a feast every day, so why do I need 3 square meals a day. I started out doing 24-hour fasts from dinner to dinner and was quickly surprised that it was much easier than I thought. After about a week, my body wasn't angry at me if at 1 pm I haven't eaten anything. I began to see weight fall off over the course of a few months. I had to buy almost an entirely new wardrobe because none of my clothes fit. I'm proud to say that I've lost 70 pounds and now weigh about 165 pounds.

Can anyone doing an intermittent or alternate day fast enjoy a glass or two of wine? Hello Jimmy and Megan, I watched Dr. Jason Fung's fantastic presentation to colleagues on YouTube where he shared about a patient who managed to still enjoy a couple glasses of wine while fasting and had amazing success. I love the idea of flexibility while fasting, but at what point does a patient impede or derail their success with something like a glass or two of wine? Was he the exception or is wine with dinner allowed to be incorporated into a successful intermittent fasting or alternate daily fasting program if you track the carbs in them? Thank you for this show, I am really enjoying it! Maryann KEY QUOTE: “Take a little bit of fat for the first few days of a fast. The extra fat takes extra energy to burn and warms you up.” – Megan Ramos 2. How do I deal with cold extremities that come when I start extended fasting? Hey guys, I’m a 68-year old woman who has had a total hysterectomy, had my gallbladder removed in my early twenties, and am hypothyroid taking Synthroid. I do quite well fasting from 4-6 days. My question is what happens to me beginning on the first day of an extended fast—my hands and feet become extremely cold. It can't be from a lack of salt because this starts to happen right away in Day 1 of fasting. I tried consuming some homemade bone broth with salt, but it hasn’t helped. Any help would be appreciated, Ruth 3. Is there any reason not to fast if you are attempting to get pregnant? Hey guys! Love The Complete Guide To Fasting and the Fasting Talk podcast. I've been doing 24-hour fasts, four days a week for weight loss. I've lost 10 pounds and have about 10 more to go. My boyfriend and I are trying to get pregnant and I was wondering if engaging in fasting while trying to get pregnant is safe. Thanks for your insights! Amanda JIMMY AND DR. ADAM NALLY’S KETO LIVING SUPPLEMENTS 4. How do you control the increase in cortisol that comes from fasting from being a detriment to weight loss?

I run-bike-swim several miles a week. I plan on fasting on Mondays and Thursdays (for 36 hours) and wonder if I will have the energy I need to get through the workouts? Alan AND Love your new podcast. My question is about fasting and exercise. I currently practice intermittent fasting but wanted to try an extended fast. I lift weights four days a week and cycle around 80 miles as well. I wanted to know what effect fasting would have on my performance and weight loss/muscle gain? Would long lasting fasts be effective for someone like me?

Fasting is truly incredible.” – Megan Ramos Here’s what Jimmy and Megan talked about in Episode 10: LISTENER TESTIMONIAL: Hey guys, After devouring everything I could on Dr. Jason Fung, along with your books, I decided to contact his Intensive Dietary Management clinic to become a client. I tried doing a 24-hour fast on my own and came to the realization I needed support. I’m back to doing 16:8 IF every day, but definitely needed help with doing longer fasts. When I am eating, it’s ketogenic. I can’t begin to tell you how excited, thrilled, and optimistic I feel about working with IDM. Just knowing there is a solution to my weight problem makes me feel like I have finally found my Holy Grail because NOTHING has worked for me. Even eating low-carb, high-fat was not enough to get me into fat-burning mode. I actually needed to get and keep my insulin low for a longer period of time than 12 hours, which is what I had not been doing. All of us who have struggled with our weight and health issues and have done numerous programs that have failed us, who have lived with despair and suffered with this horrible affliction, know how painful this all is. Now, to have an answer, a healthy, doable answer, is a miracle. I just had to share with you my absolute joy about this discovery. Thank you for The Complete Guide To Fasting.

Are there special fasting considerations for people with hypothyroidism? Hey Jimmy and Megan, I've read a lot about how fasting affects various health issues, but I haven't seen anything on thyroid disease, specifically hypothyroidism (Hashimoto’s). Do you have clients in the IDM program with this and is there anything different you do with them? Thanks so much! Patti KEY QUOTE: “Let the positive health benefits motivate you to conquer your fear of fasting." – Jimmy Moore 2. Is it necessary to eat low-carb, high-fat on non-fasting days to maintain the benefits of alternate day fasting? Hi Jimmy and Megan, I have lost weight successfully using alternate day fasting. I am 5'10" tall and currently weight 163 with a BMI of 23.4 and a 34" waist. On my fasting days, I eat from 0-500 calories and I eat LCHF on my non-fasting days. So what would happen if I did not eat LCHF on my non-fasting days? Would I still see results just at a slower pace or would that negate the benefits I am seeing? Thanks! Tommy 3. If you only eat one meal a day for a 24-hour fast, how do you get adequate calories to prevent metabolic slowdown? Hey Jimmy and Megan, Okay, now I am confused. On a recent episode of Fasting Talk, I heard Megan says it is detrimental to your health to not get enough calories in on your feeding days. She noted that patients who only eat 500-800 calories a day are the hardest ones to help because their metabolism has been slowed down for so long. But then in last week’s episode from Low Carb Breckenridge with Dr. Fung answering questions, he said it’s okay to eat one meal a day when you intermittent fast and that he doesn’t really care about how many calories you get in that meal. There’s no way I could get over 1,000 calories in one meal. So if you are doing this six days a week then aren’t you getting to that place where Megan says it is detrimental with the low calorie intake? Please help me with this. Leota 4. Do I need to do extended fasting to help reduce eczema symptoms or can keto/IF give me relief from this? Hello Jimmy and Megan, Thank you so much for the information you are providing the public. You make my job as a Mind-Body Nutrition Coach easier, knowing I am providing quality, relevant information for myself and my clients. My question for you guys is about eczema. From what I’ve read, it seems fasting is beneficial, but more so for doing an extended fast of more than three days. I'm not sure I want to fast for that long since I don't have any weight to lose. I'm 5'3", 123 pounds, 52 years old and very active with trail running 2x/week, Crossfit 2x/week and ballroom dancing 2-3 times per week. Would shorter or intermittent fasting reduce the eczema symptoms or do I need to suck it up and do an extended fast of a few days to get the most benefits? Or would a ketogenic diet alone help with this? Thank you for all you do! Phyllis JIMMY AND DR. ADAM NALLY’S KETO LIVING SUPPLEMENTS 5. Are there any differences in the fasting experience consuming water vs. dry fasting? Hello Jimmy and Megan, I've read your book on fasting and love this podcast. I have been doing 7-day fasts and intermittent fasts on a regular basis. While reading your book, I saw that fasting is a practice followed by numerous religious traditions. But one element of several of these traditions, such as Ramadan, that I did not see mentioned in your book or discussed on your show is the impact of not drinking anything during the daytime of these religious fasting periods. Fasting means abstaining from food and drink from dawn to dusk. All the discussions of fasting assumes you are consuming water. But what about these dry fasts during the daytime? Is this something different about fasting with liquids vs. fasting without them?

You recently answered a question of mine about whether I could fast for three days on and three days off to get the autophagic results of an extended fast. I was concerned because I didn't think I could do an extended fast because of my very physical job. Well, long story short, I completed a 26-day fast running solely on water, green tea, and KetoAide (which is a blend of water, light salt for sodium and potassium, and magnesium citrate). I felt fine, had plenty of energy, needed very little sleep, watched some scary stuff come out of my body, dropped 30 pounds, and kept off 18 of it since ending the fast. I could have physically continued to fast, but it was somewhat mentally taxing more than physically—and I just lost the will to continue it. So I broke the fast with a handful of black olives and almonds and then had a nice three egg veggie omelet an hour later. Pure bliss! Thanks again for all you guys do! Happy Fasting! Gary HOT TOPIC: Does fasting raise or lower your cholesterol numbers? Hey Jimmy and Megan, Here’s a hot topic idea for your Fasting Talk podcast. How exactly does fasting impacts your cholesterol? I’ve heard you say how it lowered your cholesterol, but my doctor said fasting would raise mine. And he was right. I had my blood lipids drawn after a 5-day water-only fast as prescribed in The Complete Guide To Fasting and my numbers were wrecked as you’ll see in my results below. I was ketogenic in the before starting fasting, so this is a shock. I would love to hearing a discussion about this on your podcast. Maybe it only works for people with already high cholesterol levels? Here are my numbers after fasting compared with keto: Total cholesterol 255 -- previously 197 Triglycerides 169 -- previously 84 HDL 41 -- previously 69 LDL 180 -- previously 121 Any thoughts? Brady JIMMY AND DR. ADAM NALLY’S KETO LIVING SUPPLEMENTS 1. Is the fat-burning from a water fast equivalent to the fat-burning from being in a state of ketosis? Hey Jimmy and Megan, I have water fasted for 21 days and many shorter ones for spiritual reasons. I know what it's like to have zero hunger after 3 days of no food. I have plenty of energy to walk and lift light things, but I’m not ready for eight hours of hard labor during a water fast. When I’m in nutritional ketosis, I also have no hunger but I’m able to do heavy lifting and do a full eight hours of hard labor work without trouble. I'm guessing the body fat burns better when we eat fat and protein on eating days than when we water fast. But we have plenty of stored body fat to fuel us when we fast. So my question is this: why can't I do my normal routine that includes a very physically demanding job on just a water fast and have the same amount of energy as I experience in nutritional ketosis? It seems they are accomplishing the same thing and should work equally. What say you? Steve 2. Does the autophagy that fasting produces cause any pain? And can that process prevent weight loss? Hi Jimmy and Megan, I’m currently in Day 7 of my fast and for the past three days my lower body, including my calves, quads, glutes, hips, and lower back, has been so sore that it has prevented me from getting adequate sleep. Full disclosure, these areas in particular are stressed in my daily life already. But fasting seems to make it worse. Could this pain be associated with the autophagy that is happening while I’m fasting? Could this be why I haven’t lost any weight during my fast? I’m consuming clear homemade vegetable broth made from carrots, onions, parsley, and celery over the past couple of days, so maybe there in an insulin response to consuming this. This has been a disaster for me and I’d love to hear your perspective on what might be going on. Thanks for considering my questions for your show.

Can a gastric sleeve making longer fasting contraindicative? Hi Jimmy and Megan, I had a gastric sleeve put on three years ago and I have been LCHF off and on for most of that time shifting to keto three months ago. I have been playing around with intermittent fasting since 2015 but decided to give an extended fast a go in 2017. My goal was to fast for as long as I could, but by Day 4 I started to feel nauseous and threw up after taking my salt in the morning. By Day 5 it got worse and I broke the fast. I actually felt so horrible that I called my doctor who recommended taking pain medications and rest. My blood pressure got very high during the fast and I felt so uncomfortable from this experience. Within a few days I felt better and was back to normal again. I don’t know why I reacted so badly, but was wondering if my gastric sleeve was the reason why my extended fasting attempt was an abysmal failure. Have you seen any patients in my situation who have had a similar experience? I really want to do extended fasts to experience the benefits that come from doing it. Thanks for you help!

More than the weight loss, in this short amount of time Mark has been able to remove the diabetes medicine and he believes that fasting has saved his life. His health markers are continually improving and he now enjoys more energy, mental clarity and better sleep.

How do I convince friends and family that fasting isn’t an eating disorder? Hey Jimmy and Megan, I love the Fasting Talk podcast. I have been keto for over two years losing 70 pounds with stellar blood work and I have dabbled in 24-hour fasts. But I have reservations about trying a 3-day fast. My biggest concern is about the social backlash I think I’ll experience. I have never had an eating disorder but my family and friends cannot (even after all this time) fathom that I’m cutting sugar and grains out of my diet—much less doing a fast! They were so resistant to my ketogenic lifestyle describing it as an eating disorder that the thought of fasting around them intimidates me. What do you suggest? Thanks so much! Karen KEY QUOTE: “If you have trouble sleeping, get up and do something productive. Your body will adjust and reset.” – Megan Ramos 2. Do your senses become more heightened by Day 4 of an extended fast and why? I've noticed that when I fast for more than 3 days, my senses seem to become more heightened. Is there any explanation for this or similar experiences reported by other people who are fasting? Thank you and keep up the fantastic work! Clyde 3. Is adding fat such as MCT oil to my tea going to stoke an insulin response during my fast? I'm trying to use an eating plan Megan posted where she broke her fast with bone broth, salad with little or no protein, and green tea for lunch and then a small serving of meat with cooked non-starchy vegetables for dinner. My question stems from something Dr. Fung said about fat. Will having tea with MCT oil in the morning mess up my fast and produce an insulin response? I’m asking because obviously I don’t need insulin to not be released when I’m not eating. Appreciate your response! Jerilyn 4. How can you lower the tension that comes from fasting? Hey guys, I’ve read The Complete Guide To Fasting and have watched a lot of Dr. Fung’s videos. I feel an increased amount of tension when I’m trying to fast that it depletes me of my willpower so much that I give up on it. I’ve suffered from varying degrees of clinical anxiety most of my life and being in ketosis is the closest to calm I’ve ever felt. I know that fasting would be extremely useful for controlling my weight and my anxiety, but I’m guessing the rise in adrenaline and cortisol are what make me feel so tense. Do you have any tricks for alleviating this feeling? I really want to keep fasting. Thank you, Elaine KEY QUOTE: “The more you fast, you'll build up that fasting muscle a little bit more each time.” – Jimmy Moore JIMMY AND DR. ADAM NALLY’S KETO LIVING SUPPLEMENTS 5. Does extended fasting lead to insomnia? Hi Jimmy and Megan, I'm on a 7-day fast (currently on Day 5) and I've found that over the last 3 nights I've had trouble sleeping. Is insomnia a common thing during fasting? If so, does it fade over time or the more you fast? I hope to move into an intermittent fasting protocol for long-term use and don't want to spend a couple of days per week with insomnia. I’m not having any withdrawals from caffeine or anything else that would be keeping me awake. And I’ve been in a state of ketosis for over six months, so I’m already in fat-burning mode. My blood ketones were 3.8 mmol/L and blood glucose was 3.4 mmol/L (61 mg/dL) this afternoon and I feel great during the day without cravings or hunger pangs. Any help you can provide on this would be appreciated. I absolutely love all your work and extend a heartfelt thanks for everything you've shared.

KEY QUOTE: “Keep busy and schedule things that you like to do during meal times to take your mind off of eating.” – Megan Ramos 1. Is eating 500-1000 calories on days I intermittent fast going to lower my basal metabolic rate? I find that when I intermittent fast for at least 18-24 hours, I usually only eat 500-1000 calories on those days. I eat about 46 grams of protein between one or two meals and less than 25 grams of carbs all from green leafy vegetables. The rest of my calories come from fat like butter, MCT oil, coconut oil, rendered bacon fat and olive oil. I only eat clean and avoid nuts, nut flour, artificial sweeteners, and all processed foods, and only eat 100% grass-fed and pastured meats, poultry, pork and eggs and wild fish. My blood glucose is excellent and I test my blood ketones regularly with readings always between 1.0-2.0 mmol. Should I add more of something (probably fat) to bring up my calories on days I intermittent fast so as not to lower my basal metabolic rate? Is it a problem to only get 500-1000 on these days I do IF? I'm just not that hungry but could eat more if I had to. Thank you in advance for your help and thank you for all you guys do everyday!

Should I be concerned about developing gallstones while intermittent fasting? I'm one of the genetically unlucky people whose blood sugar spikes on anything—even eating low-carb. I've lived a low-carb, gluten-free, sugar-free, Paleo, Specific Carbohydrate, and GAPS diet for many years but still have consistently high fasting sugars (6.5-7 mmol or 115-125 mg/dL) and am so insulin resistant with abdominal obesity rearing its ugly head. I've been a Jimmy Moore fan for ages but recently found Dr. Fung’s work and love what he’s doing because it makes so much sense. I'm now eating within a 9-hour window but have in the past had acute gallstones on very low-calorie, rapid weight loss plans. Needless to say, I’m nervous about doing this or going longer in my fasting because of these fears. My health takes a big dive if I go to extremes like fasting with my thyroid issues (Hashimoto’s) and liver problems (extreme Gilbert's disease). Are people like me just not suited for fasting? And if fasting is helpful for me, then what would you recommend to avoid these gallstone problems? Thanks for helping me with this issue! Jayne KEY QUOTE: “Fasting is not a fad diet with lots of rules to follow. It's simple, just don't eat.” – Jimmy Moore 3. Why am I not showing ketone production after four days of fasting? I have been fasting for 96 consecutive hours and my Ketonix breath ketone meter is registering little to no ketones. After 96 hours, I must have depleted the glucose in my system by now. In my mind I have to be producing ketones but it’s not showing up on this meter. What could be going on here? By the way, I’ve lost 39 pounds and 2 inches off my waist since September 15, 2016. I did enjoy three days of holiday eating with my family and fell out of ketosis after the third day. But I’ve been implementing fasting ever since and cannot get the Ketonix to register any ketones. Thanks in advance if you can offer any insights. Dennis 4. How do I deal with the negative side effects that happen to me during an extended fast? I have been on a ketogenic diet since April 2015 and decided to do a water-only fast in December 2016 to calibrate my new Ketonix breath ketone device. A 24-hour water fast is necessary to determine the low border and a 96 hour fast is necessary for the high border of my personal ketosis. I felt so good after four days that I decided to keep it going. Today is Day 6 and I’ve been having some problems since Day 3, including a general feeling of cold, pain in my calves, brain fog, and more. Is this normal? How can I resolve these issues and should I be concerned? Should I be supplementing my extended fast with salt, bone broth, and iodine? I appreciate your answering my questions! Dirk JIMMY AND DR. ADAM NALLY’S KETO LIVING SUPPLEMENTS 5. Is fasting a better option than the HCG diet to produce weight loss? Is fasting similar do doing the HCG diet? I have done five rounds of it over the past years to lose weight that otherwise just doesn’t come off, but each time the weight came back on faster. And now not only can I not lose weight, I am continuing to gain and there doesn't seem to be an end in sight. I suspect HCG slowed my metabolism because of the low-calorie intake putting my body is survival mode holding on to fat. Is this what is happening? After reading The Complete Guide To Fasting, it makes so much sense to me and I’m wondering if fasting would be a better option than the HCG diet. I'm at my heaviest weight ever and I'm very discouraged. Do you think fasting could help me? Please say yes.

ADAM NALLY’S KETO LIVING SUPPLEMENTS Jimmy and Jason respond to Dr. Phinney's concerns about fasting in Episode 5: - Labels fasting as a “fad” saying it will produce major pushback from the health authorities when people start dying suddenly - Getting adequate fluid, potassium, and sodium with an intermittent fast up to 24 hours is benign - After 24 hours of no calorie intake, the body starts breaking down protein from lean tissue - By Day 3 of fasting, the rate of lean tissue loss is equivalent to 3/4 pound per day - The data on extended fasting in THE COMPLETE GUIDE TO FASTING is misstated - If someone fasts for three days a week, the amount of lean tissue lost is greater than the amount of lean tissue they can regain in the other four days - Doesn’t believe that my 10-pound lean tissue loss (according to DXA) during my 28 of 31 day fast in January 2016 was water, claims it would take 40 days of eating again to recover this loss (actually a follow-up DXA two weeks later showed all of that 10-pound “lean tissue” loss was back on my body again—so he’s mistaken) - When someone fasts for a prolonged period of time, you’re vulnerable to “refeeding syndrome” (WWII prison camp prisoners suddenly died when they were fed copious amounts of food following extended fasting) - There’s an acute shift in minerals out of the bloodstream into the cells causing an impairment of heart function - The Liquid Protein Diet is used as an example of sudden death from refeeding syndrome that was reported as happening because of ketones…it shut down the science on ketosis for two decades - For some people, a 36-hour fast is fine as long as the other 5 1/2 days of eating have adequate minerals (apparent contradiction of his earlier statement) - We need research that shows long-term, positive, sustainability for people who are fasting to reverse diabetes and reduce body fat that goes 1-2 years - With two-week fasting or longer, the rate of protein breakdown comes down markedly. First day of fasting produces very little protein breakdown, the rate of protein breakdown peaks on the third day of fasting, by two weeks the lean tissue loss is about one-third pound lean tissue loss daily and at 28 days it’s a quarter-pound a day of lean tissue loss (another contradiction of earlier statements) - If you only look at urea, then the lean tissue loss seems to be much less but ammonia, creatinine, and other byproducts all make up the lean tissue loss as well so urea doesn’t give the entire picture. - It’s unethical to write a book telling people to start fasting on their own (and yet we mention to consult with a physician often throughout our book) - I’m not saying fasting is wrong, but we don’t know what the truth is - Getting adequate potassium and magnesium is critically important and you’re not getting these when you are fasting iTunes review: FREE N=1 TRACKING TOOL AT HEADS UP HEALTH BECOME A NUTRITIONAL THERAPY PRACTITIONER Sign up by February 6, 2017 for the 9-month program NOTICE OF DISCLOSURE: Paid sponsorship LINKS MENTIONED IN EPISODE 5 – SUPPORT OUR SPONSOR: Become a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner through the Nutritional Therapy Association at NutritionalTherapy.com – JIMMY AND DR.

Hey guys, I’m 71 years old with a low BMI and no medical or health conditions to deal with. I resistance train twice weekly lifting heavy and have been ketogenic for the past four years. Every couple of months, I do a water-only fast for about 3 days and have noticed that my blood sugar goes down to the upper 50’s and my blood ketones reach a very high level of 8.0 mmol on the Precision Xtra testing device. Is this a problem? I feel fine so I do not allow it to interrupt my fast. But I can’t help but wonder if the blood ketones can go too high for a non-diabetic perhaps impacting blood pH levels. Any input on this would be greatly appreciated! Thank you again for your great new podcast. Richard 2. Why do blood sugar levels increase during a fast when no food is consumed? Is it muscle wasting? Hi Jimmy and Megan, I am on Day 3 of a 5-7 day fast, but I seem to be struggling with higher than normal blood glucose levels. I started fasting after a trip when I definitely fell out of ketosis from indulging a bit too much on carbs. On the morning of Day 2, my fasting blood glucose was 80. But by midday, it was up to 110 and only down to 99 by bedtime. When I woke up the next morning, it was still 99 and stayed elevated all day long despite the fact my blood ketones are 2.3 mmol. What’s going on here? Is this muscle-wasting that I need to be concerned about since no food is being consumed? I feel great otherwise and am doing much better than I have on other fasts. Thanks so much! Robin 3. Should I be concerned about my blood sugar levels going too low while fasting? Hi Jimmy and Megan, I’m on Day 4 of my fast and my blood sugar has been reading very low the entire time. It’s been below 70 since Day 1 and I registered 45 this morning. I had a serving of kombucha and two hours laterthat brought my blood sugar back up to 60. All I’ve been consuming is water, black coffee, and tea along with bone broth to get through the hard days. Interestingly, despite the very low blood glucose levels, I have physically and mentally felt the best I have since I began this fast. Can you shed some light about what’s happening and whether I should be concerned about this super-low blood sugar while fasting? Thank you, Jennifer 4. How is it possible I haven’t lost a single pound while fasting for eight days? Hey guys, One of my goals is to do a 21-day fast and I’m currently in Day 8 of my extended fast. I drink homemade bone broth when I need it and a Bulletproof Coffee if I really need something—typically when my hands and feet feel like ice. I’ve been eating keto for over a year and typically intermittent fast daily. I workout hard in the gym virtually everyday and have done a 6-day fast and a 10-day fast previously. On the 10-day fast, I lost a lot of weight and gained it all back while on the 6-day fast, I lost some and gained it back too—but I felt amazing! On my current fast, I haven’t lost a single pound! So what’s going on with my weight? How is it possible I haven’t lost a single pound when all I’ve consumed is Ketoaide and 1 cup of Bulletproof Coffee? I’m athletic and rather muscular for a female and workout hard to help manage my multiple sclerosis. Can you explain what’s going on because I’m sure I’m not the only one dealing with this issue. Thanks for your time reading this! Dawn 5. Does consuming a small amount of calories (300 daily) slow down fat metabolism while fasting? I have a quick question for you guys: After I have 2 tablespoons of MCT oil, 2 cups of bone broth, and a tablespoon or two of heavy cream to my coffee during my fasting days, I am up to 300 calories. Does this little bit of caloric intake slow down the burning of body fat for fuel? Thanks for your help answering this question.

GET YOUR COPY OF THE COMPLETE GUIDE TO FASTING Here’s what Jimmy and Megan talked about in Episode 2: - HOT TOPIC to discuss: What Are The Primary Benefits Of Fasting? 1. Will intermittent fasting with less than 1,000 calories send my body into starvation mode? And will unsweetened coconut milk in my coffee technically break the fast? I’ve been doing some intermittent fasting, mainly by skipping breakfast on weekdays, for the past couple of months. My concern, however, is that when I intermittent fast, and also eat no starches, I'm worried that this is similar to a crash diet, because I'm often eating maybe 800-900 calories a day because it's all vegetables and proteins. But eating these things make me full after dinner. I'm 37 years old and and only 5'2" tall and I have maybe 20 pounds more I want to lose. I've spent years being told by experts warning me about not getting starvation mode. How do I know I'm not negatively affecting my metabolism by doing this fasting? By the way, when I do eat breakfast, I'm hungry all day, even when it's just a protein shake. My second question after the metabolism concern is that although I skip breakfast, I do have a small cup of coffee with unsweetened coconut milk in it. Is this technically preventing me from getting the benefits of intermittent fasting or is that ok? Thanks! Tara 2. What’s the best strategy for breaking an extended fast to avoid problems? Hey guys, I definitely appreciate all your work on The Complete Guide To Fasting. I have done intermittent fasting in the past but I'm concerned about coming off of my two to three day extended fast. Other than using a small snack before a meal coming off too fast, are there any other issues that I should be aware of? Thanks again for this awesome book and podcast. James 3. What can I do about diarrhea when I attempt an extended fast? What’s causing this to happen? I've been very interested in doing an extended fast, but at approximately the 72-hour mark I get frequent diarrhea. I'm looking for specific information that can help with my situation. This doesn't seem to be a topic many people want to discuss. Will this go away and get better at some point? Is there such a thing as too much water? Is there anything I can do to control it? Working in an office setting, this feels like a disaster waiting to happen and has always stopped me from progressing further in an extended fast. I want to know how other people handle it. Jay 4. Why did my blood sugar levels skyrocket when I engaged in fasting for a few days? Thank you for this new Fasting Talk podcast. I am an avid listener to The Livin’ La Vida Low Carb Show and Keto Talk, so this new show will be added to my regular podcasting playlist. I have been eating low-carb for about a year now and have really seen an improvement in my blood tests. I haven't really tracked blood glucose consistently during the year but it has always been below 100. Recently I tried a couple of extended fasts (60 and 96 hours) about three weeks apart. My goal was to get deeper into ketosis as I have not been successful in maintaining ketosis with a carb level of 30 grams per day. I know it is probably my protein intake keeping me out of ketosis where I am consuming around 150 grams per day. I thought the fasts would help me with this. But after each fast, I measured my blood ketones and blood glucose. Ketones never registered above 1.5 and my blood glucose was 155 to 170. Have you ever seen this high blood glucose in folks after moderate length fasts like I’ve done? I have no history of diabetes and am a bit concerned about these numbers. Thanks, Dan 5. Can I do a 500-calorie bone broth fast and get all the benefits of fasting? How about adding a prebiotic in almond milk to my fast? Hi guys! Thank you for taking time to help me out with my fasting question. In The Obesity Code, Dr. Fung discusses doing 24 hour fast has no food. He said coffee with milk is okay. In the 24 hour fast in the book by Dr. Kellyann Petrucci called The Bone Broth Diet, she says 300 to 500 calories per day of bone broth is okay. Dr. David Perlmutter of Grain Brain fame endorsed the book, but he also recommends a water-only 24 hour fast in his books. Is the 500 calorie bone broth diet correct? Would it interfere with ketosis, weight loss, and all the other health benefits that come from fasting? I’m also using a prebiotic in almond milk that totals about 80 calories. Should I skip this on fasting days? Thank you so much for your help with my questions. Maryann Send us YOUR questions for Fasting Talk HERE JIMMY AND DR.

How do you prevent ghrelin being stimulated which could ostensibly slow your metabolism during a fast? I’m excited about your new podcast all about fasting. I have a question for you that I haven’t heard addressed anywhere. How do you avoid stimulating ghrelin that will slow your metabolism while fasting? Thanks for your work, Karen 2. Is fasting contraindicated if you have had your gallbladder removed? Hey guys, What about fasting when you have had your gallbladder removed? I've heard this stresses the liver the Whole30 book says fasting is not recommend for people without a gallbladder. I'm curious if that's true or if there is a difference between intermittent and extended fasting. I've tried to find some research about this online but no good answers have come up. I asked my gallbladder doctor about this, he had no options for me either. Any information you can provide would be appreciated. Thanks, Leah 3. Why does the notion that fasting is not good for women continue to linger? Hey Dr. Fung, I’ve heard several prominent health experts like Mark Sisson and others online who say women should probably not fast. I don’t understand why this idea of fasting being detrimental to women is so commonplace because I’ve seen nothing but success using it. I’m 48 years old and a mom of three who has used a low-carb, high-fat, ketogenic diet with regular exercise and yoga to be healthy. But my weight and fasting blood glucose levels had been going up. That’s when fasting changed all of that for me enabling me to lower my weight, reduce my waist size, and lowering my blood sugar, insulin, and A1c levels. Why is there such negativity about fasting for women promoted so heavily especially in the Paleo community? Thanks for your books and great work!
