THE most common question sent into me is about weight loss, more accurately fat loss.My short answer to the is a month focused on a protein sparing fast. We've developed the most comprehensive method to do this anywhere. we call it Precision PSMF with omega balancing. I believe it is the closest we can get to our ancestral diet we have ever been. On this podcast I delve into the reason why this is. Disclaimer:This video is not meant to diagnose, treat, or mitigate any medical condition.

There are few things that are as simple to do and will profoundly improve your heath as finding out what your omega 6-3 ratio and then addressing it by changing your diet.Not only has Omega 6 increase over the the last 5 decades caused various condition to rise but has literally created 3 -4 separate and identifiable epidemics, from obesity to alzheimers, to auto-immune disorders, to heart disease. Learn what this is, get tested, and change it for yourself.

However you want to refer the this passing pandemic it is clear the most metabolically compromised were the ones who have suffered the most. This is both in terms of death rates and those that are consider 'long haulers'. Obesity is high on the list of those who are metabolically compromised. This begs the question as to why, and why is there a concurrent and per-existing obesity epidemic and has this per-disposed those who are obese to being more susceptible to COVID. If so then how did that happen? both the obesity epidemic and their greater susceptibility to the virus and suffering worse symptoms from COVID?The core of both these concerns is the inflection point of following the nutritional recommendations of the 1960s and two fraudulent studies the have come from those recommendations that are now the basis for our current Nutritional Guidelines.WATCH or listen to NEXT:The Ultimate Big FAT lie https://youtu.be/o8dEjA-Oy-sMENTIONED IN THE PODCAST:How to Fix your Omega 6 https://youtu.be/bt10g7_3-

So what it the Big Fat Lie about Keto and Protein Sparing Modified fast?It comes in 3 parts: 1. Fear of saturated fats has been completely reversed that's to many phenomenal researchers2. High fat and low carb Keto is really not  only not necessary but arguably not recommended unless you have epilepsy 3. The fat you use cannot be processed omega 6 oils.If you want to stay out of trouble and not be misled by common misconceptions then I'd love to have you listen in. All the best,Dr. Goldkamp

Clearly the issue of omega 6 to omega 3 ratio has been a topic for as least since I started med school in the early 1990s, last century now.  This begs the question:  if it has been an issue for this long than why haven't doctors been doing the very inexpensive lab test that would show this, the omega panel?We'll I have been doing that and have been equally perplexed by the consistently lop-sided ratio in favor of extremely high omega 6. As a young doc I had assumed it was due to meat verses plant based diet. I now see that as nonsense it had to be from other sources.The now obvious answer is the use of the ultra cheap seed oils: corn, soy, canola.Time to examine when these oils came into our food, and how to reverse this in us personally. Let this information change your life by acting on what you hear in this podcast, because it will.  Good, accurate, relevant,  information can change you IF ONLY you apply it.  Disclaimer:This video is not meant to diagnose, treat, or mitigate any medical conditio

Did you know that Samoans living in New Zealand have an incredibly high incidence type 1 diabetes. It's an auto-immune disorder as opposed to type II which is life style induced . A pediatrician who practiced in New Zealand was so concerned about this he began looking into it with his own patience. His Name was Dr. Robert Elliot. Dr. Elliot died in August 2020 just 2 months after he was knighted by the queen of England for his contributions to medicine.  His research about the Samoan in his country lead him to discovering the difference between different types of cows, specifically between A1 beta casomorphin 7 and A2 beta casomorphin.  The hunch, then the confirmation was controversial, and divisive in a country whose exporting of milk was one of the countries main industries. The company A2 milk was created subsequently yet in countries where the economy is dependent on dairy product exports they still haven't accepted this difference.As a physician I can confirm the fact the nearly everyone suffe

This has always been a popular topic: does the protein you eat increase your blood glucose levels. "Spike your blood sugar levels" is what is used by those who want you to fear protein and become hyper vigilant your diet if not neurotic. The relative truth of that statement depends on just one variable, and that is the amount of carbohydrates you consume.Looking back on this 'debate' my only regret is that I was too polite, rather not aggressive enough in presenting what I knew was correct. I wasn't prepared for the manner of the debate, but learned quickly to push back.The conclusion that should have been made clearer, is that if you are a person who has a lot of carbs and you have protein (really any form, but I generally mean whole food sources of meat, fish, poultry) your blood glucose levels will increase a lot. If your are on a protein sparing modified fast (ie just consuming whole food sources of protein) then it will not.Enjoy the exchange, it's an interesting tussle of p

Over a year ago I attended a lowcarb USA conference where Dr. Rob Cywes gave a talk. Can't remember what his talk was about but he a statement that the protein you eat turns to sugar. I thought that was incorrect an so waiting in the question line to ask if he would clarify that for me. That didn't change anything. I thought then, and still do that was an irresponsible and primarily untrue statement to make.  One of the people who ran the conference decided to set up debate between us and this is part one of this debate.The thing about going to conferences and listening to the speakers is that we tend to give them credibility that have no earned. We want to like them, in doing so it allows us to be less critical to what they are claiming. Because we want to like them, we don't want to disagree with them because that makes us uncomfortable, maybe even inwardly angry. That was me. The conference, unfortunately wasn't conducive to encouraging one to disagree in public, but if we are collectiv

Did you know that the 'auto-pilot' mechanism actually never indicates whether or not the plane is on the scheduled route. It only works by notifying the pilot that the plane is off course and needs to be corrected and gives the direction back to where it should be. but while it is on course, and everything is working fine, there is not indication that is the case. It is merely the lack of 'off-course- indications of warning lights and alarms that lets them know they're on track. Kind of counter-intuitive, eh?Yet it is very much how life works. When we are on track, in the 'ZONE', our focus narrowed to what's important to us everything is quiet.But sometimes stepping out of that quiet reveals something to us that we would not have ever realized had we just kept chugging along. This is exactly what happened to me when I worked at Starbucks. I got to meet people I would have never met, watch the gradual erosion of the youthful health, but the consumption of high sugar coffee dr

Seems like in life nothing is a straight line is it? Except possibly when looking back in hindsight and then you can see how things line up, how your experiences were additive and sequential in just the right magically difficult way.So it was for me, bankrupt, dying (certainly my wife thought I was 'passing on') grieving over family losses, and extremely in debt. Ouch!!I left medicine behind, simmering with an anger over why things didn't work out and disorientation as to what was my future. I did hate arguing with insurance companies over coding discrepancies, or explaining my recommended treatment plans for patient's other doctors. I wondered if the approach to medicine via appointments and tweeking patients back to health was really that effective. I thought I left because I was dying.I now see I left to learn more unencumbered by having a practice, or answering urgent phone calls or .....That's when I started reading about low carb living, Keto, an entirely different perspective o

If you have had the privilege of ever seeing someone transform their physical appearance by doing a protein sparing modified fast, then you will be wondering, as I am. How can that be possible. I talk about why and what happens to those people.What if they were finally getting the amount of protein they required, or was it due to all the things they were no longer consuming that were bad for them and their metabolism? Kind of both ... but how is that.Facebook Group about Keto: https://www.facebook.com/groups/ketonaturopath/Website: https://ketonaturopath.com/Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/ketonaturopathFree Keto Food List: https://ketonaturopath.ac-page.com/keto-food-list-optinPSMF 30 day course: https://www.thebiointegrationcode.com/courses/PSMFChallengePodcast: https://www.buzzsprout.com/482971/episodesDry farm wineshttps://www.dryfarmwines.com/products/wine-membershipKeto mojohttps://shop.keto-mojo.com/?rfsn=3712430.393b9c&utm_source=refersion&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_campaign=3712430.393

If there was one question that people ask me over and over it is how do I loose weight so I won't have to do it again ever. People ask because everyone has a plan, a program, something you should do and believe it's the only way to achieve weight loss.In this pod cast listen to the outline of the 3 basic step that everyone needs to do metabolically and sequentially to arrive a place where they don't need it to think about it any more. 

The misinformation and myths around dietary protein required for optimal health are everywhere. One claim meant to scare those on a ketogenic from having what they consider is too much protein, says that it will 'spike your blood glucose levels. Oh really!Such a claim is now relatively easy to put to bed merely by letting people decide for themselves by wearing a CGM (continual glucose monitor) for a couple of weeks or tracking it via a glucometer.This podcast is about this unsubstantiated fear and discovering what really happens when you have higher protein whether you're on a ketogenic diet or not.Links:Facebook Group about Keto: https://www.facebook.com/groups/ketonaturopath/Website: https://ketonaturopath.com/Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/ketonaturopathFree Keto Food List: https://ketonaturopath.ac-page.com/keto-food-list-optinPSMF 30 day course: https://www.thebiointegrationcode.com/courses/PSMFChallengePodcast: https://www.buzzsprout.com/482971/episodesDry farm wineshttps://www.dryfarmw

When the scales of your life tip just a little too far and your health begins to unravel fast before  you realize what's happening you, it's seem like it's mere folly to even think there's a way out.This podcast is about what it took to come back from a near fatal health collapse in my life.Spoiler alert: The answer is work, persistance, and not loosing your sense of caring for yourself.Concepts had to change. Personal beliefs had to be re-assessed, retested and reconstructed.This is about that process of what I threw out and my thinking that had to  change before moving on.Facebook Group :  https://www.facebook.com/groups/ketonaturopath/Website: https://ketonaturopath.com/Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/ketonaturopathFree Keto Food List: https://ketonaturopath.ac-page.com/keto-food-list-optinPSMF 30 day course:  https://www.thebiointegrationcode.com/courses/PSMFChallengePodcast: https://www.buzzsprout.com/482971/episodesDry farm wineshttps://www.dryfarmwines.com/products/wine-members

As life leads us all in one direction only, getting older, some things happen to us metabolically whether we want or not and that is obvious aging. In terms of Muscle mass,  muscle synthesis, protein requirements some factors are becoming clearer about what it is we must do as we get older both individually and collectively.First, our protein requirement increases as we age (past 25) and especially after 50.Second,  our appetites decrease.Third, our metabolism,  shifts to breaking muscle down  more quickly, And fourth, we become far less active physically in our lives.These factor are addressable, one by one.  And when that happens an entire metabolic shift will take place along the lines of what is referred to as anti-aging.Is it possible to increase MPS (muscle protein synthesis) in our sleep? Listen to what we can do to make this happen.Facebook Group :  https://www.facebook.com/groups/ketonaturopath/Website: https://ketonaturopath.com/Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/ketonaturopathFree Keto Food List:

Dr. Karl asks the question:How did we get here, a nation, a country, a culture, that is growing weaker at a younger and younger age.In the US., an estimated 53% of men and 43% of women over 80 are sarcopenicMost adults in the US achieve their peak muscle mass sometime in their 30s.People who are physically inactive can lose as much as 3 -5% of their muscle mass per decade after age 30The factors facing us all are surmountable, but not taught us or encourage or required by our education system any more.Sarcopenia isn’t just about muscle lossSarcopenia, is not just related muscle atrophy but is more a metabolic atrophy, and neurologic atrophy, that is starting earlier and earlier age in the US, if not world wide. The contributing factors, as you can guess, stem from our increasing cultural inactivity due to, among other things, time in from to the computer and or TV.Sarcopenia is the number 1 associated condition with all cause mortalityFrom cancer, to cardiovascular (ie heart attacks) to cerebrovascular (strok

Most of us understand what it means to be a carnivore, as a human or an animal. Being an obligate carnivore, however, requires something completely different. If a cat does not get all its nutritional requirements met, it will become ill and die. Almost all cat food is processed, and that initiates a prolonged and gradual nutritional deficiency for cats.Understanding the protein requirements of cats has made Dr. Karl become a more serious carnivore for the sake of his health.A lesson from cats that can be applied universallyAlthough Dr. Karl always knew that cats are obligate carnivores, he did not truly understand what that meant until recently. One of his cats would only eat ground-up chicken meat, and she was not doing well. Now Dr. Karl understands that having only one kind of protein is wrong. It can get you into nutritional deficiency.Different kinds of proteinThere is a huge difference between muscle meat and organ meat. There is also a big difference between muscle meat from fish, muscle meat from bee

It is simple enough to know that everyone needs protein. Yet, the protein that people are consuming has been decreasing over the years. It is particularly low in adults over the age of 50. To compensate, people are consuming more carbohydrates. Unfortunately, most of those carbohydrates are refined and processed. A simple change that will create a long-lasting and sustainable change is to increase your protein to the appropriate level and keep it there. The Protein Sparing Modified Fast (PSMF) is the best way to start learning about protein. You can then use it as a guideline to create a healthy diet for yourself. Understanding proteinWe need to understand protein. We need to know how much protein we need and how it can change our lives.A different contextWorking with people on various programs and doing panels and labs has given Dr. Karl a different context. He understands that we are not all the same, and we will not all get the same results from doing the same thing.MetabolismTo change your metabolism, you

Something that nobody is talking about today is the mental health crisis in the US that was exacerbated by the COVID pandemic.A low-carb keto diet and genomic testing can do a lot to change that situation easily. Now is the time to start!Today, Dr. Karl will be going over the serious issue of mental illness in the US (and worldwide) that appears to have worsened since the pandemic. Mental illness includes severe depression, bipolar, schizophrenia, and obsessive-compulsive disorder, amongst others. Dr. Karl decided to address the topic by sharing some interesting and relevant audio clips that focus on mental illness from a slightly different perspective. One of the clips comes from a comedy, and the other is from a PBS special coming up in June. After that, Dr. Karl talks about what he thinks can and should be done to manage those situations.Genomic predispositionOver the last 20 years, Dr. Karl has found depression, bipolar, and schizophrenia closely related because people tend to have a genomic predispositio

Seven years ago, Dr. Karl started looking into how to purchase C8 MCT Oil in liquid form because it was not available anywhere. He thought it could help to heal his gut from Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis and render his impending surgery unnecessary.And it did! That made him look even deeper into why it worked so well. He learned all about ketones and how they were anti-inflammatory. That required him to learn about ketosis and the ketogenic diet. So, his fascination with the rabbit hole of exploration into C8 MCT Oil began and it has not stopped since.Welcome to another episode of the Keto Naturopath. Today, we will be going over the history of the use of MCT oil. Dr. Karl had a product on Amazon for more than three years that was the highest natural source of caprylic acid triglyceride (C8) available in North America and Europe. He no longer sells his product on Amazon, but the story of how he got there is still valuable. TriglyceridesMostly, fats get transported through the body as a triglycer
