I’ve become a big fan of exogenous ketones for myself and my patients with a little more challenging insulin resistance. My clinical experience has been great, both personally and with my patients, in helping people to get into, and maintain, a more successful level of ketosis that drives energy, fat loss, improved mental clarity & focus, and diminished inflammation throughout the body.
I’ve been using a packet 2-3 times a day for the last year, personally, and have found these to be the greatest addition to my ketogenic lifestyle. I’m stocking up right now. . .
If you haven’t tried exogenous ketones, now is the perfect time. Buy yours now before this special ends.
Exogenous ketones are now available for purchase North of the border and our wonderful Canadian friends can now access them via the internet at: DynamicKetones.com.
Come join us on August 4th at 7pm for an evening of fun filled learning about health, diet and how ketones play a role in a healthy lifestyle. Get a chance to talk with Dr. Nally and try out a sample of exogenous ketones.
I want you to think about bacon for a minute . . . here are some images to help:
Now admit it . . . your problems went away for just a moment . . . didn’t they!? That’s the power and influence of ketones on your brain.
See, your brain loves ketones. Bacon is the bearer of ketones. Bacon contains saturated, polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fat. Fats that have the ability to be converted to ketones in the short run, in a couple of hours and 4-5 hours from now. Isn’t that exciting?
I know my brain feels a little kick start just thinking about it.
As long as you are putting that bacon into the system without the stimulus due to an insulin surge from carbohydrates, you’ll do fantastic.
This is the same feeling I get when I use exogenous ketones like Keto//OS. If you haven’t tried them, you’re missing out.
So, if your feeling a little foggy today, stop and think about bacon wrapped avocado fried to a crispy golden brown in coconut oil for a moment, and while you’re making them . . . drink a Keto//OS . . .
There . . . doesn’t that feel better?
(Yes, I just used pictures of bacon to advertise for exogenous ketones, but really, . . . . you feel better don’t you!?)
Ok, for those of you who are using Keto/OS (I commend you for your insightful use of the next step in ketogenic metabolism bio-hacking), I have discovered one of my new favorite mixes. (If you’ve already tried this mix, then where have you been and why didn’t you tell me about it?!)
Enter Keto//OS – exogenous ketones that aid in shifting you into ketosis. Yes, they actually do work and usually bump my ketones up 0.5 mmol/L to 1.5 mmol/L when I use them.
So, I mixed my orange flavored Keto//OS version 2.1 with Diet A&W Cream Soda, and voala, Orange Cream that takes me back to childhood memories!! You gotta try this.
As you know, I have no problem with using Diet Dr. Pepper, Diet Coke (NOT Coke Zero!), Diet Mug Rootbeer & Diet A&W Cream Soda. The sweetener that these four sodas use does not kick you out of ketosis, and I am OK with my patients using them on my Ketogenic diet. (Yes, I am OK with most of my patient’s using aspartame. Yes, I’ve actually read the studies . . . have you?! That’s why I’m OK with it’s use.)
If you haven’t tried Keto//OS yet, you can get your sample here.
Ever wondered if it is possible to change up your metabolic genetics for the better? Come join me this week. I’ll be speaking about Ketogenic BioHacking, Thursday, March 31st, in Scottsdale, Arizona. Meet me from 7-8:30pm and learn how to improve fat burning, bio-hack your epi-genetic metabolism for improved blood sugar, cholesterol, blood pressure and so much more . . .
You’ll also get to meet Kim Minert who will be signing her new book, Burn Fat for Fuel. And, you’ll get a chance to meet the amazing Abigail Epps-Kluttz, body builder, fitness model & Pruvit Ambassador.
I get this question almost daily. Sorry to burst your bubble, but there is NO exercise program that will give you “six-pack” abs.
Really. You can do sit-ups, leg lifts and crunches ’till the cows come home and it will do nothing other than give you abdominal cramps. It will also make you hungry. I don’t care what Men’s Fitness, Bodybuilding.com, Muscle Magazine, Shape or even Doctor Oz said. There are no “6 Best Exercises for Ripped Abs.” There is only one exercise . . . throwing the carbs in the trash (or giving them to the neighbor you don’t like.)
The “12 Step Ab Program” really only has ONE STEP . . . cut the carbs. Let me repeat that. There is only ONE STEP to “six-pack abs,” . . . cut the carbs. Cardiovascular exercise does nothing for amazingly toned abdominal muscles, other than make you hungry. Resistance exercise improves insulin resistance, but doesn’t build the abs. Avoiding the milk, rice, wheat, oatmeal and fruit allows the abs to appear. Yes, I’m serious. What do bears eat? Berries.
When did you last see the a bear with “six-pack abs?”
The only way to see your “six-pack” is to remove the fat covering your “six-pack.” The only way to get rid of fat covering your “six-pack” is to stop drinking it and lower the carbohydrate content to less than 20 grams per day. Seriously . . .
So you’ve done 100 crunches a day for six months? Do you see your “six-pack” now? Exactly.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result.
Staying in ketosis and adding 2-3 days of resistance training will melt 2-5 lbs of abdominal fat away each month. Yes, I know it is slow . . . but that is weight (fat) that will stay off. Use whole foods high in fat, moderate in protein and low in carbohydrate. Use supplements like Keto//OS & Adapt bars to help when you don’t have access to a good meal or as a snack when you are hungry. Look at the list of Low Carb Links above to get great ideas for meal preparation and sweeteners that you can use.
