 As a ‘culture’ we have become not only hooked on carbohydrates but on process foods specifically. This has Hacked our metabolism and created an epidemic of obesity and diabetes that is already at 40% of the population in some states (W. Virginia and Mississippi). The inevitable result, is that to mitigate all of the resulting metabolic problems medication after medication are used which results in a Hijacking of our brain health by depriving it of the healthy appropriate fuel that it needs.Buy C8Keto MCT Oil on AmazonOur Facebook Group Keto NaturopathDownload our Free Keto Foods ListVisit our website for more podcasts, recipes, and informationUntil next time, Dr. Karl

Most of us have some idea what dementia is. Though we toss the word ‘demented’ around as a put down, Dementia, and Alzheimers experienced up close is difficult to witness. In part why it is so difficult to watch others go through the decline is because much of it can be avoided entirely by adopting a Low Carb High Fat Ketogenic diet. If there was one specific condition that is most improved by ketones, this would be it. In fact, unlike other conditions that can be improved by a ketogenic diet, taking ketones directly for Alzheimers or dementia has become a gold mind for certain companies that are now in business of creating them. The market for both LCHF Ketogenic diet and for ketones is based on two truths, the rate of Alzheimers is at an all time high and will just increase, and Mild Cognitive Impairment is happening at a younger and younger age. Both demographics can be addressed fairly easily. Listen in to hear how we do that.Sweethearts Forever. Then Came Alzheimer’s, Murder and Suicide.“They were absolu

A key sign of an addict is the craving for their addictive substance or need for a "fix". A food fix, like any drug fix, is an attempt to experience the dopamine high needed by any addict. Food addiction, more specifically, Processed Food Addiction is no different than other addictions in the sense of they are looking for a dopamine high. Come listen to how it has been established that being overweight, or obese or even heavier, is not about calories or burning off calories but helping the brain of an ‘addict’ to restore itself. The Ketogenic diet helps generate some of the necessary neurotransmitters to ‘quiet’ those screams of cravings that all substance abuse people feel. Being over weight, not even jusi obese, but that as well, is merely a side effects of a substance abuse to a  ‘drug’  called carbohydrate.I think you will see controlling your weight is in essence...All in your head...so should be addressed as such.Buy C8Keto MCT Oil on AmazonOur Facebook Group Keto NaturopathDownload our Free K

At a population level, male testosterone levels and reproductive health are plummeting at a precipitous rate.These changes cannot be accounted for solely by comorbid (associated) conditions such as metabolic syndrome.Other factors are the dramatic and damaging effects of endocrine disruptors. Toxins such as phthalates, BPA, atrazine, phytoestrogens, and birth control have polluted our food, water supply, personal care products and everyday household products. Literature has demonstrated a clear association between exposure to endocrine disruptors and hypogonadism and infertility. Extensive published studies have also shown the direct epigenetic effects of exposure, confirming a near certain causative effect.The keys to mitigation the harmful effects of endocrine disruptors are: limiting exposure and up regulation detox pathway through personalized epigenetic lifestyle intervention.Buy C8Keto MCT Oil on AmazonOur Facebook Group Keto NaturopathDownload our Free Keto Foods ListVisit our website for more podcasts

It’s just an old 'wive’s tale’ so you thought. The fact that if you have a bacterial infection fasting (being in ketosis) might just save your life. On the other hand, if you have a viral (flu) infection you might want to have a good meal. Learn How auto-phagy and being on a low carb high fat ketogenic diet will probably mean you get far fewer colds & flus then ever before.

This sounds pretty esoteric...Oxidative Priority...But it really means the order in which your body (you metabolism) must burn it’s fuel. Alcohol is number one. It must be burned off because it can't be stored...But when you are ‘burning your alcohol’ you are NOT burning anything else...Your carbs are being stored immediately.This will be a fascinating understanding of why you blood glucose levels go down with a glass of wine, but also how you can create outrageously intense Glucose-keto index numbers if you are having any MCT oil or ketones at the same time. In fact you can achieve a GKI equivalent to a 7 day fast in just an hour.

It’s been at least 6 years since we began our journey on the Ketogenic diet. Learned a lot that I didn’t know when we started and the technology has most certainly changed as well. Put both of those together and it is an entirely different world in which to start Keto. I think you’ll get some insight bits of actionable recommendations when you listen to the story.Link: https://www.myfreestyle.com/freestyle-libre-pro-cgm-systemBuy C8Keto MCT Oil on AmazonOur Facebook Group Keto NaturopathVisit our website for more podcasts, recipes, and informationUntil next time, Dr. Karl

I’ve always thought that what the world is sorely in need of today is critical thinkers. Now I realized it is not that they are not there, it is that their perspectives have been kept from the mainstream due to their ideas being perceived as a threat to some ginormous corporate interest that has kept it out of the headlines. This is such a story that will definitely affect you personally.

The question I keep asking myself is why is it we always hear about that some people can’t or don’t get positive results with a Ketogenic diet (aka Low Carb High Fat). Whether it is the Virta Health study or any one of various Obesity and Lifestyle Clinics around the country. It is pretty much common knowledge that about 50 % will get positive results, which usually mean weight loss or reversing diabetes. However that also means that 50% of those attempting the LCHF diet did not find any positive benefit for their efforts. WHY IS THAT THE CASE?This discussion is about exactly that. Going over some our collective (anonymous) results to reveal some of their common lab markers, metabolic problems that may have been an Invisible Obstacle for these people. It was only by looking deeper into areas that hadn’t been examined before, a Metabolic lab panel, Hormone panel, Intracellular nutrient panel, and Genome analysis, that we found problems that they didn’t know they had which could be easily improved and then make

There’s two concepts that drive my passion for learning about and helping people implement the ‘Keto’ life style, and those are: 1. In order to be healthy in a progressively unhealthy world we need to think and act differently, and2. In order help people regain their health ( weight loss in this instance) one needs to look where where others haven’t looked in order to see, to understand, what others haven’t seen or don’t see. My point is that things have become more complicated today in terms understanding obesity and weight loss than it was 50 - 100 years ago. Today’s podcast is about that, looking at health parameters - basic and  esoteric - to understand what has been difficult to know previously. Hope you enjoy the conversation with a person who just finished their ‘Deep Dive Keto Course’ with us.

For some, this is the long a waited topic, conversation, that many feel represents their experience most accurately.  It's for the people who have endured the often unnecessary work of getting started with the Ketogenic diet only to have it become a thoroughly frustrating time and effort. For others, this might be too ‘granular’ in terms of talking about the specific variables required to create a successful outcome. For me it has become a realization in my ‘quest’ of how to have Keto work for everyone (barring specific medical conditions). The realization is that living in a progressively more unhealthy world we have to think about what it takes to be truely healthy in a different light.  Please join me in this quick review of some of the main obstacles to achieving great results with the Ketogenic lifestyle. I’m sure some of this will apply to your situation.Buy C8Keto MCT Oil on AmazonOur Facebook Group Keto NaturopathVisit our website for more podcasts, recipes, and informationUntil next time, Dr. Ka

 Not everyone is ‘on the same page' regarding some topics in the Ketogenic diet community. This podcast is about some of those issues. On some of those topics, they have made me reconsider what my perspective is and frankly now I no longer think as I did.
