Today, I am blessed to have here with me a lifetime natural competitive bodybuilder, Robert Orion Sikes. Robert started Keto Savage to help motivate and educate others about the importance of following your passions and getting the results you want. Robert wakes up early, he works his A@$ off, and he sees results. Robert is no different than you; any success he has experienced this far is attainable for anybody willing to put in the work. We live in an era where everything is automatic, everything is superficial, and everything is expected for nothing. That life does not create greatness; it destroys it. The Keto Savage site will empower those who crave intensity, dedication, discipline, hard work, and sacrifice. In this episode, Robert Orion Sikes reveals the inspiration behind his brand, Keto Savage. As one of the first keto bodybuilders, Robert knew he needed to document his journey. Robert has been in ketosis for six years; he explains how he stays so disciplined. When you love what you do, it’s easy to say disciplined. So, learn how to love keto foods and to do amazing things for your body. Tune in as we speak about Robert’s Keto Brick, how to break a plateau, and we talk about big tech censorship. / / E P I S O D E   S P ON S O R S  PureForm Omega Plant Based Oils (Best Alternative to Fish Oil): http://www.purelifescience.com Use ben4 for $4.00 off. ☕️ Purity Coffee: http//:www.ketokampcoffee.com, use ketokamp at checkout for 10% off [00:30] About Robert Orion Sikes As a bodybuilder, Robert was shredded, but he sacrificed his health. He developed eating disorders that left him in a dark place. Plus, Robert fell into a deep debt; he got depressed and suicidal. So, Robert tried keto. His cravings went away, and he felt much better. Everyone at the gym would tell Robert that he couldn’t get big on carbs. However, Robert went fully keto, and he still competed as a bodybuilder. Robert has looked back since.  [05:45] How Robert Will Stay Disciplined The secret to Robert’s discipline is loving the process. You can’t become a bodybuilder overnight; it takes years and years of weightlifting. The more you work at something, the better you get. Bodybuilding involves an obsessive amount of discipline. As long as you embrace it, then you will find success. [07:45] What To Know When Starting Keto Know your “why” and understand what drives you. Also, knowing your “why” will help if you have a long-term view of what you want to accomplish. That way, you’ll be excited about what you do every single day. Getting healthy isn’t a good enough “why.” Instead, your “why” should be about the people in your life. You owe it to your family to stay healthy. [11:50] About The Keto Brick The Keto Brick sold out in two minutes. The bricks are great for backpacking, hunting, and running. The brick is 1,000 calories with 90 grams of fat. Every ingredient has the purpose of optimizing your performance. The momentum and support for Robert’s Keto Bricks keep coming. Keto products should not have seed oils or any sweeteners. If there are more protein and carbs than fat, then that isn’t keto. Get Keto Bricks: https://www.ketobrick.com [19:15] Building Muscle On Keto    If you are implementing progressive overload and increasing your training, you will build muscle in the context of being in a caloric surplus. Fuel your growth through adequate calories. Within eight days, Robert will hit each muscle group twice. Robert doesn’t do a ton of cardio. He likes to run as a meditative type of exercise. If you’re doing cardio, do it after your strength training. Use it as a cool down rather than a warmup. [24:00] How To Break A Plateau Many women chronically undereat. Their metabolic baseline has been so down-regulated that there’s not much room for them to improve. So, women need to upregulate their metabolism. Trying a calorie surplus will help upregulate your metabolism. When you have a calorie surplus, that doesn’t mean you can eat whatever you want. Having a cheat meal will have negative psychological effects. Instead, focus on desiring things that will improve your wellbeing. Keto flexing will help your good cells get stronger. [33:20] About Big Tech Censorship Robert is doubling-down on his own website. He is revamping the entire website so big tech will not censor his macro content. That way, he won’t have to rely on social platforms to be his end-all be-all. AND MUCH MORE!

Today, I am blessed to have here with me, Founder of Upgraded Formulas and a Chemical Engineer, Barton Scott. Barton always had sharp cognitive function, but he began to suffer memory loss and mental fatigue. How could this be, at such an early age? To make matters worse, tragedy struck at the same time, when he unfortunately lost his mother. After taking many supplements during this time frame, nothing was working. Faced with adversity and looming health issues, this is when he decided that he must pursue solutions.  He grew frustrated with how mineral supplements lacked effectiveness and absorption into the body rendering most products in the market useless. He set out to fix the problem, using his background in Chemical Engineering and experience as a nutritionist, he was able to identify the issues with the current offerings and applied a solution based on sound science. Through research, and many trials and errors, he realized if you could get mineral particles small enough to absorb into our cells, that was going to be the winning formula for effectiveness. That's where he applied nanotechnology to minerals, and developed a solution that makes the minerals we sell today completely bioavailable - the impact of which we can see during our testing protocols. It was then that he set out to create what today is Upgraded Formulas, founded with maximum bioavailability and measurable absorption to ensure you are getting results. In this episode, Barton Scott opens the show explaining the inspiration behind his company, Upgraded Formulas. Unfortunately, typical supplements and our food isn’t enough to get all of our minerals. Barton came up with a better way: highly-effective dietary supplements that are absorbed better by the body than any other products. Plus, Barton created a hair test that is ideal for determining your heavy metal toxicity and mineral deficiencies. Tune in as we talk about the importance of testing, which minerals will be helpful with keto, and Barton speaks about his 11-day water fast.

Minerals and heavy metals are a critical thing to focus on to optimize health. Every day, Barton would take 600 mg of magnesium every day – unfortunately, he just wasn’t absorbing the minerals. Barton created a new category of supplementation called Nano Minerals to increase healthspan, focus, sleep quality and slow down accelerated aging. His mission is to support you by creating, highly-effective dietary supplements that are absorbed better by the body than any other products. [10:20] Getting All Of Our Minerals From Food Unfortunately, our food isn’t enough to get all of our minerals. We all have some level of gut disfunction. So, we shouldn’t be surprised that our guts are not efficient systems. The environment is not perfect either in terms of efficiency. As life goes on, we have less and less nutrition in our food. Topsoil is depleted; therefore, there are fewer nutrients in our foods. [13:10] About Barton’s Hair Testing Kit Say goodbye to blood draws and urine tests. You don’t need to go to the doctor anymore to take care of your body properly. They test for key minerals, heavy metals, and understanding your metabolism. The kit is super easy to use; you collect the hair sample, send it in, then you receive fast test results! Get the hair test kit: https://www.upgradedformulas.com/products/hair-kit-test For a discount: (use code: ketokamp) [20:30] Keto, Fasting, And Your Mineral Levels When people are fasting poorly, their mineral levels are going to be low. People are trying so hard to be healthy, but they just aren’t seeing results. The perfect diet and fasting will not get you well; instead, it’s just part of the equation. When you are eating a high-carb diet, you retain a lot of water weight. On keto, you will release a lot of excess water weight. If you don’t have a plan in place, you might get brain fog, short-term memory loss, and other issues. [23:30] Test, Don’t Guess    When starting keto, Barton says you should test instead of guessing what you need to do. People will take one test, then make some changes and not understand why it’s not working. That’s why it’s essential to have a consultation with an expert. Another mistake people make is not taking another test after making changes. You have to know what’s happening in the body before you make effective changes. [28:45] Upgraded Formulas That Will Help On Your Keto Journey Magnesium and potassium are two supplements that will help on your keto journey. Take magnesium whenever you feel anxious or stressed. Most people will take two capsules before bed. Upgraded Magnesium: https://www.upgradedformulas.com/collections/products/upgraded-magnesium Upgraded Potassium: https://www.upgradedformulas.com/products/potassium Upgraded Iodine is another supplement that everyone needs. Upgraded Iodine: https://www.upgradedformulas.com/products/iodine Upgraded Sugar Support will help with those sugar cravings. Barton will take this supplement in his water throughout the day. Upgraded Sugar Support: https://www.upgradedformulas.com/products/metabolism For a discount: (use code: ketokamp) [36:15] About Barton’s 11-Day Water Fast   Barton took his Upgraded Magnesium and Upgraded Potassium during the fast. He felt amazing and got loads of work done during the fast. If you do a 7-day fast once a year, it will cut your risk of cancer by ninety-five percent. During the fast, Barton would sip black coffee as needed but tried not to drink too much. Anytime we are stressed, we burn through minerals faster; so too much coffee may do harm. Barton salts water daily for his fast too. AND MUCH MORE!

Today, I am blessed to have here with me the founder and CEO of Farmers Juice, Junaid Kalmadi. Farms are the lifeblood of a healthy food ecosystem. Farmers Juice partners with a network of trusted local farmers to source only the highest quality ingredients. Their sourcing is organic (year-round when available) from family farms in California. In this episode, Junaid Kalmadi speaks about his journey to opening Farmers Juice. They separate themselves from other juice companies because Farmers Juice focuses on local farms, they donate some of their proceeds to Kiss The Ground, and they have keto-friendly juices. 2020 has been a challenging year; it’s time that we focus on self-care and self-love. One way to practice self-care is through giving our body the nutrition it needs. Tune in as we talk about the misconceptions of cold-pressed and the benefits of juice on our mental health. If you want to be in ketosis and check out the juices, you can do it here using code “ketokamp” https://thefarmersjuice.com/ketokamp. / / E P I S O D E   S P ON S O R S  PureForm Omega Plant Based Oils (Best Alternative to Fish Oil): http://www.purelifescience.com Use ben4 for $4.00 off. ☕️ Purity Coffee: http//:www.ketokampcoffee.com, use ketokamp at checkout for 10% off [00:25] About Junaid Kalmadi At college, Junaid gained forty pounds. Throughout college, his cognitive performance was down. No one would hire him after he graduated! So, Junaid started his own business out of necessity. Even though his business was up and running, Junaid had anxiety and depression. He got the dream but still felt like crap. Three years ago, Junaid took six months off to focus on being healthy. He started meditating every day, fasting, and keto. He lost twenty pounds and felt amazing. Eventually, Junaid began to introduce cold-pressed juices into his diet. Junaid’s juice journey led him to start Farmers Juice: (code: ketokamp) https://thefarmersjuice.com/ketokamp. [09:15] The Logistics Behind Farmers Juice Farmers Juice will deliver nationwide to the 48 states. In terms of the process, the first step is the plant lifecycle. There is a time where plants have peak nutrition. They catch the plants during that time and juice it then and there. Farmers Juice will use a lot of ugly produce that wouldn’t get placed in Whole Foods. Once they juice the plants, then they use an innovative technology that introduces cold water and high pressure from every angle. That pressure will neutralize all the negative pathogens and maintain the integrity of the juice for thirty days. [11:45] Keeping Farmers Juice In Your Fridge After you open the juice, drink it within three days. If you have no intention to drink the juice, don’t open it. If the juice hasn’t been opened, it will last thirty days in your fridge. [12:30] The Misconceptions Behind Cold-Pressed Most companies do not take the level of attention to make sure the plants are organic. Many juice companies are not organic because it’s more affordable. Farmers Juice will take the extra step to make sure it’s organic. Most juices are anywhere between eight and twelve dollars. Farmers Juice is $5.99 per juice. Lastly, most juices are high in sugar. Junaid has created keto-friendly juices working with Dave Asprey. [16:30] About Junaid’s Juices    The Greens Only box of juices is ketogenic and low glycemic. It includes 20 organic cold-pressed juices and ten shots. Many of the juices contain cucumber, dino kale, lemon, and ginger. All of the juices will give you a good energy boost. [23:10] The Benefits Of Juice On Mental Health It’s critical to love yourself and take care of yourself. One of the best ways to do that is to have healthy habits. Work on appreciating yourself through nutrition. When you have fast food, it changes how you felt for the rest of the day. When you eat something good, you notice it more, and you feel the momentum in your health journey. Think about what else you can do to expand your wellbeing, like drinking juice! AND MUCH MORE!

Does too much protein kick you out of ketosis? The role electrolytes play with getting into ketosis fast. Why toxins might be the reason why you can’t get into ketosis.  02:00 The first reason why you aren’t in ketosis… too many carbohydrates. If you’ve wondered how many carbs you should eat to get into ketosis, you’ll find the answer here. Keep an eye out for carbohydrate creep. It’s important to read the ingredients list. Some people need to drop total carbohydrates to under 20 grams in order to achieve ketosis.    03:15 The second reason why you aren’t producing ketones… a process called electrolyte dumping. When your body transitions away from being a sugar burner to a fat burner, it releases excess water. When you don’t replenish electrolytes on keto, this can result in common symptoms when doing keto such as brain fog, the keto flu, and not feeling good on the keto diet.  Consume 1-2 teaspoons of high quality salt.

Can you practice intermittent fasting with the keto diet? Yes, they go hand in hand. However, fasting is a muscle you want to develop over time.    08:35 The number four reason why you can’t get into ketosis on keto…. Poor sleep and too much stress. Yes, too much stress will kick you out of ketosis. When cortisol is high, glucose follows and ketones drop.  Sleep deprivation and higher cortisol and insulin https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/sleep-deprivation-obesity/ 09:47 Sleep issues on keto? Follow these tips.  The Power of Sleep Book: https://amzn.to/3pJGLLz 11:24 The fifth reason why you have low ketones on a ketogenic diet…. Toxins! This is the most common reason why people struggle to get into ketosis, or why you keep getting kicked out of ketosis. This is why you don’t feel good on keto.  The Fasting Trio: https://bit.ly/2WKSBrL Free Toxicity Quiz: http://www.toxicmiami.com 15:30 The bonus reason why you can’t stay in ketosis …. Unstable fats such as vegetables oils and fish oil.  18:20 How fish oil is sabotaging your keto results.  STUDY: Page 251 in the PEO Solution: "21st Century Warning: 4½ Months to Rid Patients of the Damaging Fish Oil Excess21 It takes 18 weeks to reverse the negative effect of the incorporation of EPA / DHA from fish oil into the cell membrane. This four–month time frame is important to understand, as it coincides precisely with the time frame of significant vascular health improvement, that was accelerated by ceasing fish oil use, as shown in the IOWA screening experiment." 20:20 3 proven ways to get into ketosis fast.  MCT’s are 3 fatty acid groups with a glycerol backbone  Their metabolization is unique and gives us instant energy 3 types of fats, short chain, medium and long chain C8 Caprylic has been shown to be the most efficient for ketone production MCT’s are not stored as fat, they are used for fuel and converted into ketones immediately Combine C8 with coconut oil to help get the spike in ketones from C8 and the conversion from coconut oil.

Cinnamon has been used for over 4,000 years. It is high in antioxidants. #7 ORAC score, antioxidant score. cinnamon blood sugar study in type 2 diabetics:  https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1...   Cinnamon for diabetes can help block the activity of several digestive enzymes to slow the absorption of sugar in the bloodstream after a high-carb meal https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/2/ Many studies have shown that people with type 2 diabetes can experience significant positive effects on blood sugar markers by supplementing with cinnamon extract.  FENUGREEK  With trace nutrients (iron, manganese, copper) and a variety of antioxidants, fenugreek is a wonderful keto herb.  In a study published in the Journal of Diabetes and Metabolic Disorders, it was also observed that the control ground had a "4.2 times higher chance of developing type-2 diabetes compared to subjects in the fenugreek group.”  CLOVES  Consuming cloves can help stop sugar cravings as well. In a study, 30 type-2 diabetics were given capsules containing zero, one, two or three grams of cloves each day for a month to observe their serum glucose levels.  Researchers of the study suggested that consuming one to three grams of cloves per day is beneficial for type-2 diabetics to better manage their glucose and total cholesterol levels.”   GINSENG  In several human studies American ginseng lowered blood sugar levels in people with type-2 diabetes.

Today, I am blessed to have here with me Craig Emmerich. Craig graduated in Electrical Engineering and has spent the last 15 plus years researching nutrition and working with thousands of clients alongside his wife, Maria Emmerich. He is an international best-selling author of the "Keto: The Complete Guide" and "The Carnivore Cookbook." He uses his knowledge of how our bodies work to help clients heal and lose weight leveraging their biology to make it easy. In this episode, Craig speaks about his journey to the ketogenic lifestyle. Craig explains how plants can negatively impact our guts. Kale and spinach can be some of the most significant irritants to our guts because of their antinutrients. Also, Craig reveals what other plants are chock full of these antinutrients. Later, we speak about the benefits of eating red meats, and we bust the myth that red meat causes cancer. Tune in as Craig tells us how fat loss works from a metabolic standpoint, and we hear about Craig's plans in 2021. // E P I S O D E   S P ON S O R S  PureForm Omega Plant Based Oils (Best Alternative to Fish Oil): http://www.purelifescience.com Use ben4 for $4.00 off. ☕️ Purity Coffee: http//:www.ketokampcoffee.com, use ketokamp at checkout for 10% off [00:30] About Craig Emmerich Craig is an ex-engineer; it leads him to look at nutrition differently. Craig’s wife, Maria, would make keto meals for the family. On the weekends, Craig would eat whatever he wanted. Craig realized when he ate whatever; he would feel awful. So, to feel better, Craig started eating keto for every meal. Your body is adaptable. If you constantly flood your body with inflammatory foods, then it can deal with it. You won’t notice the incremental pain. When you cut it all out, you get a massive reaction and realize what it's doing to your body. [05:30] How Our Gut Is Affected By Plants Plants can make issues in our bodies worse. Sometimes, it will even cause the issues. Your body wants nutrients. However, antinutrients are compounds that your body does not want. Your body will have to detox these antinutrients. There are thousands of these compounds in plants. Plants don’t want you to eat their leaves because it will kill the plant. Spinach and kale have oxalates in them in high amounts. They will irritate the gut and cause leaky gut. Mainstream media doesn’t discuss these issues with plants. [10:45] Antinutrients Found In A Keto Diet Lectins are a big problem. There are tons of compounds in our foods that can cause problems. Tannins are an antinutrient that is in grapes and wine. You can die if you get too many oxalates. That’s the problem with green smoothies. Plus, there are loads of compounds that we haven’t even studied. When you know the reason for starting a keto lifestyle, then the way you do it can be very different. We have been taught that more vegetables are the way to go, but it’s not always the truth. [17:45] The Benefits of Eating Red Meat As far as red meats go, there is a huge metanalysis that was done last year. It looked at all the available information out there on red meat and cancer. They found that there is no correlation between red meat and cancer. When you eat red meat, there can be amazing improvements to your cardiovascular system. Try out the carnivore diet and see how it works for you. There are loads of vitamins and minerals in red meat. Focus on protein because that will be the best part of your plate. More protein is usually better, especially for people on a keto diet. [24:40] How Fat Loss Works From A Metabolism Standpoint     We process protein, fat, and carbs the same. Oxidative priority is how our body will process our fuels. When you eat a meal, you have hundreds of calories flooding the bloodstream. The body has to prioritize how it will use the fuel. The last priority for the body is fat because we have a massive amount of fat storage; it is easy for the body to store fat. Alcohol is the number one priority for the body because you cannot store alcohol. When you eat with alcohol, the body has to deal with the alcohol first. The body doesn’t want to use protein as a fuel; it wants to use it to repair cells. If you cut out alcohols and keep your carbs to a minimum, then fat will be your own variable. Adjust your fat levels based on your goals.   [33:10] Craig’s Plans For 2021 Check out the Protein Sparing Modified Fast Cookbook: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1722073454/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_bibl_vppi_i2/benazadi-20 There is more to come from Craig and Maria; get excited!

Today, I am blessed to have here with me Chris Irvin, a nutrition researcher, writer, and educator. He holds a master's degree in Exercise and Nutrition Science and is currently the education manager for Perfect Keto. During his time in grad school, Chris began to see the keto industry growing. Chris was in big support of this industry growth because he thinks a robust industry can support good research, but with so many companies coming on the scene just trying to make a buck, Chris became discouraged and kept his distance.   After spending a couple of years researching and developing content about keto, Chris decided to start looking more into the keto industry because he wanted to bring more research and education into the industry. Fortunately, Perfect Keto was looking for someone to improve research and education within their company, something they were already doing very well! Chris was already a big fan of Dr. Anthony Gustin and the quality products he was making at Perfect Keto, so it ended up making a great fit. Now Chris focuses on learning and educating the masses on the ketogenic diet through The Ketologist and Perfect Keto! In this episode, Chris Irvin opens the show speaking about his journey to the keto diet and eventually the carnivore diet. First, we talk about how ketosis can actually help you build muscle despite people thinking insulin is required for muscle growth. In fact, ketones can stimulate muscle growth. Later, we dive deep into the carnivore diet. Chris explains how he found the carnivore diet, why the carnivore diet is beneficial for our gut, and if the carnivore diet is sustainable long-term. Tune in as Keto Kamp members join the show to ask Chris questions about supplements and what to pay attention to when trying the carnivore diet. // E P I S O D E   S P ON S O R S  PureForm Omega Plant Based Oils (Best Alternative to Fish Oil): http://www.purelifescience.com Use ben4 for $4.00 off. ☕️ Purity Coffee: http//:www.ketokampcoffee.com, use ketokamp at checkout for 10% off [02:00] About Chris Irvin Chris found the keto diet at age 24. At grad school, he learned about the benefits of keto from a sports perspective. When Chris tried keto, he didn't feel that great. However, after a few days, Chris started to feel energized. During his research at grad school, Chris got to look at how keto would affect athletic performance. If you want to learn about the therapeutic effects of keto, Chris recommends reading Tripping over the Truth: https://www.amazon.com/Tripping-over-Truth-Overturning-Entrenched/dp/1603587292/benazadi-20 Chris became frustrated that all this research was available, but people didn’t have access to it. So, Chris decided to start making content to educate the masses on the ketogenic diet.   [16:45] How Ketosis Helps You Build Muscle People think carbohydrates and insulin are required for muscle growth. However, you don’t have to have them. There are other ways that you can stimulate muscle growth. Ketones are muscle-sparing. You don’t lose muscle with ketosis. Ketones can also stimulate muscle growth by activating muscle proteins. Getting enough protein will be essential for muscle growth, especially for men. Even for people who aren’t focused on gaining muscle, there should be a focus on retaining muscle. Chronic diseases will destroy our health through muscle loss – so increase your protein intake. [21:00] How Chris Got Into Carnivore Chris tried carnivore about two and a half years ago. At first, Chris didn’t think an all-meat diet would be beneficial for people. After trying carnivore, he loved the way that he felt. It also changed the way that he looks at nutrition because he now prioritizes quality meat. Chris found that the carnivore diet gives him more strength in the gym, improves his productivity, decreases his hunger, improves his body composition, and even increases his ketone levels. After seeing the stories and hearing so many people who get excellent benefits from a carnivore diet, Chris thinks people can decide if it's the right fit for them. [26:40] Getting Vitamins And Minerals Through The Carnivore Diet Surprisingly, there are loads of nutrients in red meat. People think that plants provide us with essential micronutrients, and cutting them out will lead to deficiencies. However, micronutrients in plants are poorly absorbed in humans. Ketones are able to provide the benefits that vitamin C does. Plus, your demand for vitamin C will be less when you’re in ketosis. You need lots of vitamins on the standard American diet; your body doesn’t need as many vitamins in a carnivore diet. [31:45] Repairing The Gut With Carnivore    Gut health will improve with the carnivore diet for two reasons: Plants contain compounds that are toxic, and they can wreak havoc on our bodies. Some people are sensitive to these plants from overconsumption. So, when we eliminate those plants, the gut can start to heal through carnivore. Meat will provide nutrients to help with the repair of your gut. It can repair the lining of your gut and the structure of your gut. Thus, reducing leaky gut syndrome. [38:20] Is The Carnivore Diet Sustainable?   The carnivore diet is sustainable for an extended period of time. There is no reason to think that this diet is going to be bad for us. If you’re talking about sustainability for enjoying the diet, then it depends on the person. For someone who likes to cook and needs more flavor, the carnivore diet can be a bit boring. People can benefit from the carnivore as a diet as a tool in their toolbelt. Use the diet in four to six-week blocks. You can join The Carnivore Reset Challenge: https://meatreset.com. [52:20] Supplements For The Carnivore Diet Electrolytes will be a necessity on the carnivore diet. Find a powder or a capsule electrolyte supplement. [56:00] Repairing The Gut After Antibiotics The longer you’ve been taking antibiotics, the more damage that has occurred in your gut. In most cases, there is a two-week minimum to try the carnivore diet to see how your digestion is responding. Impaired gut health will zap your energy and prevent you from feeling great. If you’re not feeling great on carnivore, then you need to stick with it longer. [59:20] Feeling Better On Carnivore There should be a noticeable change that your quality of life is better on the carnivore diet. When you’re healthy, you’ll feel better. Digestion should improve. You won’t feel bloated or nauseous after meals. More energy and more mental clarity will also be a sign that the carnivore diet is working. AND MUCH MORE!

Today, I am blessed to have Sara Banta, a Health Coach and busy mother of three whose children are now 14, 16, and 18 years old. Sara completed her undergraduate studies at Stanford University with a degree in Economics and Psychology in 1998. In 2016, she graduated from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition and The Invincible Wellness System. Through her journey, she has had to solve many health issues within her family, including her son suffering from leukemia at the age of nine, her daughter having allergies, anemia, and asthma, her husband having heart issues, her other daughter having comprehension and learning issues, in addition to headaches. This, of course, is on top of her own issues with fertility, hormones, adult acne, IBS, digestive issues, heavy metals and much more. She has had to connect the dots and realize what was causing all these issues and what the solutions were, which also of course involved the mind-body connection.  A lot of the same solutions that heal the gut or the brain are the solutions that help achieve weight loss, improve fitness and restore metabolic health. With that, she has devoted her life to providing guidance and all-natural health supplements and solutions that heal the body and the root problems, not just addressing the symptoms.  In this episode, Sara Banta opens the show by sharing her and her son's health journey. After her son's leukemia diagnosis, Sara's family went on a massive health journey. Eventually, that journey led Sara to create Accelerated Health Products to help other people heal. Plus, Sara speaks about how keto can be used as a health tool, and she gives hacks on how to avoid the keto flu. Later, we talk about frequency-based healing and the ways that Accelerated Scalar Silver can change your life. Tune in as Sara reveals the importance of overcoming iodine deficiency and why you need to try the Genius Insight Biofeedback App. SPECIAL OFFER: JOIN THE KETO KAMP ACADEMY FOR 50% OFF.

She had zero energy, and her stomach was bloated with food. Doctors couldn’t give her any answers.  After finding a natural practitioner, she realized that healing would involve a mind-body connection.  Later, Sara found out her son had leukemia. Sara decided to put all of her energy into healing her son.  Doctors simply don’t have the time to help everyone heal.  After cutting the processed foods and sugars, Sara and her son were on a healing journey together. Eventually, Sara created Accelerated Health Products to help other people heal: https://acceleratedhealthproducts.com/ahp/ketokamp/ use the coupon code KETOKAMP15 for 15% off. [19:20] Using Keto As A Health Tool A lot of people progress from paleo to keto. That way, you won’t hit the keto flu as much. Also, endogenous ketones are a great tool to get yourself into ketosis without the keto flu.  Intermittent fasting is essential to incorporate in a ketogenic lifestyle; that way, ketosis is easier to achieve. Sara focuses on supplements and tools to get her into ketosis quicker.  Most people walk around with leaky gut. It's easy to have with the toxins that we are exposed to daily. On Sara’s keto journey, she realized that she and her children are all individuals, needing different diets.   Even though Sara is on keto, she has a challenging time processing fat. Sara will focus on high protein. She eats less fat than a typical person who is on keto.  You don’t need to be in ketosis 24/7, especially for females. Going in and out of ketosis will be helpful for the metabolism.  [25:50] About Frequency-Based Healing There are frequency-based machines that can heal the human body.  For instance, the Genius Insight Biofeedback App is a great tool. It combines a patented Voice Spectral Analysis together with a series of highly effective alternative healing modalities. You can check it out here: https://acceleratedhealthproducts.com/ahp/ketokamp/ use the coupon code KETOKAMP15 for 15% off.

This video reveals that calories do matter, but they aren't important. Focusing on calories is a distraction to what truly matters, hormones and cell metabolism. What Ben Azadi, founder of Keto Kamp, teaches is to focus on the two macros instead, carbohydrates and protein. Keep your total carbohydrates below 50 grams for the day. Of course, you want these keto carb macros to be from high quality sources. Aim to consume 40-50 grams of quality animal protein with each meal. When you pair intermittent fasting with keto, you most likely will end up cutting calories; but, there's a big difference when you do it with fasting vs not. This video explains the difference as it comes down to counter regulatory hormones. ▸ 🎁 FREE KETO KAMP BLUEPRINT: http://www.ketokampblueprint.com 🎓 Join the Keto Kamp Membership for only $5!: http://www.startketokap.com / E P I S O D E   S P ON S O R S  PureForm Omega Plant Based Oils (Best Alternative to Fish Oil): http://www.purelifescience.com Use ben4 for $4.00 off. ☕️ Purity Coffee: http//:www.ketokampcoffee.com, use ketokamp at checkout for 10% off// R E S O U R C E S ➡️ Keto Kamp Membership for only $5: http://www.startketokamp.com ➡️The World's Best Olive Oil | Get a $39 Bottle For a $1: http://www.ketokampoliveoil.com ☕Healthiest Coffee: http://www.ketokampcoffee.com Use "ketokamp" for 10% off ➡️Keto Kamp Apparel: http://www.ketokampgear.com *Some Links Are Affiliates* // F O L L O W ▸ instagram | @thebenazadi | http://bit.ly/2B1NXKW ▸ facebook | /thebenazadi | http://bit.ly/2BVvvW6 ▸ twitter | @thebenazadi http://bit.ly/2USE0so Disclaimer: This podcast is for information purposes only.

It is estimated that autophagy starts during the 16 hour mark of a fast, this is also dependent on whether or not you go into the fast in ketosis or not. When you go into your fast being in ketosis, you'll activate autophagy faster. On your autophagy fasting days, when you do eat to break the fast, it is important to keep total protein for the day under 20 grams. This is the time to increase your healthy fats. Here are my favorite fats to break your autophagy fast with... Grass fed butter or ghee Coconut oil Olives and olive oil Avocados Nut butters Here are 2 ways to practice autophagy fasting during the week. Option #1 An 18/6 autophagy fasting schedule This means 18 hours out of the 24 hour period you are in the fasted state. You only consume water with sea salt here. You break the fast with mostly fasts. Then have your two meals within your 6 hour eating window. The first meal should have less than 20 grams of total protein. The second meal at the 24 hour mark is where you consume the rest of your protein which will stop the autophagy. I like this method 2-3 times per week, depending on how much extra body fat you have on you. Option #2 A 32/16 autophagy fasting schedule This approach is more aggressive, and is best for those with more than 20 pounds of excess body weight that you want to lose. Here's how it works... 32 hour fast with only water and sea salt. You break the fast with mostly fasts, keeping total protein here under 20 grams. The following meal will be 4 hours later where you can consume more protein. This can be done 1-2 times per week. It is important to balance autophagy with mTor, and I explain the difference between these two pathways in this video. ⏱️ The Art of Fasting Webinar.

Today, I am blessed to have here with me an investigative science and health journalist and co-founder of the non-profit Nutrition Science Initiative (NuSI.org), Gary Taubes. He is the author of The Case Against Sugar (2016), Why We Get Fat and What to Do About It (2011), and Good Calories, Bad Calories (2007), published as The Diet Delusion in the UK.  Taubes is the recipient of a Robert Wood Johnson Foundation Investigator Award in Health Policy Research and has won numerous other journalism awards. These include the International Health Reporting Award from the Pan American Health Organization and the National Association of Science Writers Science in Society Journalism Award, which he won in 1996, 1999, and 2001. (He is the first print journalist to win this award three times.)  Taubes graduated from Harvard College in 1977 with an SB degree in applied physics and received an MS degree in engineering from Stanford University (1978) and in journalism from Columbia University (1981). In this episode, Gary Taubes joins the show to speak about his work shining a light on bad science in the nutritional realm. After publishing What If It’s All Been A Big Fat Lie?, Gary faced loads of backlash. However, that didn’t stop him. Gary has published countless books about why we need to ditch carbs, stop eating sugar, and start eating fats. Gary speaks about the inspiration behind his book, The Case For Keto. After interviewing 120 doctors from around the world that recommend the keto lifestyle, his book talks about why the established rules about eating healthy might be the wrong approach to weight loss. Tune in as we talk about why calories in, calories out is a terrible way to lose weight.  ⏱️ The Art of Fasting Webinar.

He found a disconnect between medical research and public research. The disconnect is especially terrible in the nutritional world. After reporting about the DASH diet study, Gary found that eating a low-sodium diet wouldn’t help lower your blood pressure. Then, Gary decided to start researching the low-fat diet. Gary keeps exploring different aspects of nutrition by shining a flashlight on dark science.   [06:50] The Backlash From Gary’s Work Gary found that fat doesn’t make you fat; it’s carbs. After the New York Times ran his story, What If It’s All Been A Big Fat Lie?, there was a massive uproar. Gary even lost a few friends because of the article. People thought Gary made the research up to get a book deal. All sorts of magazines did take-downs of Gary. When Gary’s first book came out, there was still an uproar. People assume that he’s a quack. [20:35] About The Case For Keto Carbs are the reason that you get obese. However, the counterargument is always Asia. These people have lived primarily on rice. The answer is that they are low sugar consumers. After we discovered insulin, people thought they needed carbs to balance the insulin. Insulin and carbs should not be the answer to people with diabetes. Doctors will argue that patients do not want to give up carbs. However, most doctors agree that their patients should not be eating sweets. As keto started to catch on in mainstream media, Gary knew he needed to create a book for people who are trying keto for the first time. For his book, Gary interviewed about 120 doctors from all over the world. [37:35] Being In Ketosis Long-Term Gary interviewed 120 doctors from all over the world; most of them don’t care if people are in ketosis long-term. These doctors are mostly concerned with people getting off of carbs. Ben says that it is healthy to reset the metabolism and work on carb-cycling. [43:45] Why Calories In, Calories Out Is A Terrible Way To Lose Weight    You can starve yourself and lose weight – however, you will be starving all of the time, and it’s not sustainable. The idea that people get fat because they overeat is a thin person’s perspective on obesity. However, it’s a tautology. Insulin tells your body to store calories as fat. By the end of the 1960s, it was clear that people who are obese tend to be insulin resistant; carbs stimulate insulin, which tells your body to store fat. Overall, people with obesity don’t respond normally to insulin. AND MUCH MORE!

Today, I am blessed to have a Chief ENERGY Officer and Community Cultivator, Jeremy Abramson. His mission is to energize, educate, and empower you to unleash your full potential. Jeremy is the host of Thrive University. He believes that EVERYONE deserves access to higher education. FOR FREE. Jeremy is committed to educating and empowering you with the tools and knowledge you need to live your happiest and healthiest life. Jeremy brings you the most knowledgeable and inspiring leaders in health, wellness, spirituality, mindset, and entrepreneurship. As a philanthropist, he makes giving back a priority, talking to youth at several local nonprofit. In 2017, he partnered with Maison Fortuné Orphanage in Haiti and returned for a second trip the following year. As his business and digital following continue to build, his influence follows.

Tune in as Anthony Lizardi joins the show to ask Jeremy about motivation and positive thinking. ⏱️ The Art of Fasting Webinar.

That will lead us to behave in ways that don’t align with our core values or vision. People should get clear on what matters to them. Once you have clarity, you can identify what is out of alignment. Next, figure out where your limiting beliefs come from. Usually, they come from your early childhood. Your subconscious programming is set in stone from your first seven years of life. However, you have the ability to rewrite the stories that you tell yourself. No longer do people have to be a victim of their past.  [08:10] Stop Comparing Yourself To Others Instead of comparing yourself to others, turn it into inspiration. We compare ourselves to people who are in a completely different space. Everyone progresses at a different level. So, we need to understand our superpowers and our uniqueness. That way, you will understand how the journey is different for everyone. We tend to be our harshest critic. Focus on progress, build confidence, and establish momentum. [13:10] How To Create Your Dream Life The average American is overweight, depressed, and in debt. Average is something that Jeremy stays very far away from. There are six components to creating your dream life: Thoughts Turn off the news Create an affirmation before you go to bed Stop judging yourself so harshly Habits Our habits decide our future Have an accountability checklist Tie every action with a feeling or emotion Relationships It’s powerful to have relationships in your life that level you up People think it’s lonely at the top; however, it doesn’t have to be Find people who inspire you and challenge you Intention Bring more intention and presence into everything you’re doing It will give you a guide on what not to do Be fully present and fully engaged Vitality Your thoughts and habits will either fuel you or strip your energy away What do the first 30 minutes of your day look like? Focused energy and attention is our most valuable commodity Enthusiasm Do what you love Now more than ever, the world needs positive leaders Enthusiasm is more important than knowledge and experience [49:50] Finding Motivation Motivation will get you started. However, motivation is not permanent. Motivation is a product of momentum. To establish momentum, stack small habits. Make your first hour and last hour of the day belong to you. Work on journaling. [53:55] Creating Positive Thoughts    Find the source of your negative thoughts. They come from somewhere, someone instilled them inside of you. Do the work. It can be uncomfortable. AND MUCH MORE!

Follow this routine 5 times per week so you can target belly fat, and spot reduce love handles. Yes, you can spot reduce, and this video shows you the science behind it. Tip number 1 consume green tea on an empty stomach. Green tea contains catechins, and research shows green tea can help you lose weight especially around stomach fat and love handles. 🤓 [STUDY] https://academic.oup.com/jn/article/1... My favorite green tea products: Yogi: https://amzn.to/3oo83pO Pique: https://amzn.to/3mNkLhK Tip number 2 excise on empty stomach start with core. It's true, hiit workout for fat loss is a powerful tool to get rid of love handles. The reason we start the workout with core is to deliver blood flow to your stomach fat, belly fat and love handles; follow this with a hiit workout and you'll get more fat loss in your stomach area. These are the best workouts to lose belly fat. Workout on an empty stomach, and begin the workout with 10 minute of core (abdominal work). Tabata planks, butterfly sit ups, hollow body rocks. Then burst training focusing on a lot of squats. For more check out GC3 Fitness: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZT-... Tip number 3 continue fasting for 2-5+ hours. Fasting is a great way to help you lose belly fat, for men and women. When the workout is done, continue fasting so you can raise human growth hormone which is a powerful fat burning hormone. Tip number 4 cold exposure. Does cold exposure help you lose weight; the science says YES! Here are ways to accomplish this. Cold showers Walking outside without a jacket when it’s cold Polar plunging into a cold lake or ocean Ice bath Ice pack on your shoulder blades while you watch T.V. or read a book Studies: 🤓 [1] Cypess, A.

In this episode, Dr. Ann talks all about neurotransmitters. First, she explains that neurotransmitters are the messengers in our body; they are crucial to our overall health and happiness. If you're curious about how well your neurotransmitters are working, Dr. Ann recommends getting an Organic Acids Test (OAT) done. Plus, Dr. Ann reveals which supplements she recommends to her patients struggling with dopamine levels. Tune in as we talk about the effect carbs will have on dopamine and why ketosis is so essential for our neurotransmitter health. ⏱️ The Art of Fasting Webinar.

She didn’t feel well, but the doctor told her she was normal. One day, Dr. Ann had terrible stomach pain, she went to a different doctor. It turns out, Dr. Ann’s appendix exploded. Later, Dr. Ann had severe hives that sent her to the emergency room. No one talked to her about diet. So, she sought care from natural providers. They spoke to her about diet, environmental pollutants, and hormones.  [05:15] Why Dr. Ann Loves Neurotransmitters Ann meets patients who just can’t change their diets. Person after person, Dr. Ann wanted to know what was going on. She started to run tests on herself and found out her neurotransmitters were in the toilet. Dr. Ann was exposed to black mold, it was contributing to a lot of her problems. When she found the black mold, Dr. Ann moved out. [09:15] About Neurotransmitters Neurotransmitters are messengers for your body. They work in the brain and make us feel good. However, they also run digestion, muscle coordination, and other functions. When we think about adrenal health, dopamine shares a pathway with our fight or flight chemicals. It’s associated with our adrenal health. Sometimes when someone is exhausted, it could be dopamine depletion. Dopamine can become depleted for a variety of reasons. Some people do not methylate correctly. Chronic stress can also deplete dopamine. [11:45] How Methylation Works You need certain chemicals to make the dopamine conversion. There is a test to figure out how your pathways are working. If you don’t have the nutrients to run a pathway, it might not be a methylation issue. Make sure that you are running the pathway appropriately. Not having the right nutrients can cause stress. When Dr. Ann runs testing, people are depleted in Vitamin C, B6, and magnesium. It can be as simple as supporting the body with some nutrients so the pathway can run better. [16:15] Getting The Organic Acids Test   There are other tests, but Dr. Ann uses an Organic Acids Test. This test is fantastic because it can check for black mold. Before taking the test, do a glutathione challenge. If someone has dopamine depletion, it could be related to something they have been exposed to. [22:00] Recommending Supplements   When someone goes to see Dr. Ann, they have poor gut health. That’s why Dr. Ann will recommend supplements. If you are chronically iron deficient, then something in the gut could be creating inflammation. Ann would like to kill critters before supplementing. If you can optimize your gut, you can get the necessary vitamins and minerals through your food. Ann will give a product that has B6, B9, B12, and B2. However, she checks with the individual where they are high and where they are low. [24:40] How Carbs Will Affect Our Dopamine    When someone wants carbs to feel satisfied, they could go overboard. Processed carbs make our neurotransmitters pop up and crash even lower than before. When you have been overeating carbs, you try and increase your dopamine levels. However, the dopamine will be lower than they were before. [33:10] The Benefits Of Ketosis On Neurotransmitters   All hormones rise in ketosis. Being in ketosis is beneficial for neurotransmitters as long as you are not too depleted. If someone is starving themselves, then it may not be beneficial for neurotransmitters. As a general rule, fasting is good for neurotransmitters. [39:20] The Best Foods For Neurotransmitters You want proteins! Vegetables and fats are also essential. Nuts and seeds will help with your neurotransmitters as well.   [50:40] How To Know What You’re Lacking Run an Organic Acids Test (OAT) to see what’s going on. It’s a urine test. [52:40] Increasing Glutathione Ann will give it to her patients straight – it is critical for overall health. Also, Dr. Ann recommends a glutathione liposomal. AND MUCH MORE!

In this episode you will discover how to clean up your cells with intermittent fasting through a process called autophagy.

When does autophagy start? I would hypothesize that autophagy is induced around the 16 hour mark of a fast. This also depends on whether or not you go into the fast in ketosis or not. Autophagy has many benefits, one of them is that it activates the clean up of your cells. When the body does not have food, it needs to get energy from somewhere; so it goes for damaged cells, proteins and DNA. 💀 We have cells within our body that begin to dysfunction, and they stick around causing us to age faster. We call them zombie cells — because they refuse to die. 🤬 As they build up in your body, studies suggest, they promote aging and the conditions that come with it like osteoporosis and Alzheimer's disease. 🥺 Zombie cells are actually called senescent cells. They start out normal but then encounter a stress, like damage to their DNA or viral infection. At that point, a cell can choose to die or become a zombie, basically entering a state of suspended animation. 😫 The problem is that zombie cells release chemicals that can harm nearby normal cells. That's where the trouble starts. 🧐 Researchers have also shown that transplanting zombie cells into young mice basically made them act older: their maximum walking speed slowed down, and their muscle strength and endurance decreased. Tests showed the implanted cells converted other cells to zombie status. 😔 🛁 One of the best ways to kill off these zombie cells is a process called autophagy. 🧼 😳 Autophagy literally means "eat thy self"; it's the process of cleaning up damaged cells. ✨ Think of the refrigerator you have inside your kitchen. 🧀🥗🥛 🥘 It has groceries that all have an expiration date. What will happen if you let these groceries expire, and instead of throwing the expired food in the trash, you push it toward the back of the fridge? 🤔 🤢 This is going to lead to a toxic environment! Mold, bacteria, and many other disgusting processes will occur. 💯 The human body is like this refrigerator; it has cells, fats, and proteins that all have expiration dates on them. ⏱ If you aren’t intentionally “taking out the trash” so-to-speak, within your body; this can lead to diseases like cancer and Alzheimer’s. 👎🏻 🍽 ⏰ Fasting helps your body get rid of these expired products! Fasting triggers the process of autophagy, which breaks down and recycles dysfunctional proteins, and cellular debris. This is why world-renowned cancer doctor Thomas Seyfried says, “If you complete a seven-day water only fast, once per year, you reduce your chances of getting any cancer by up to 95%!” 😳😳😳 🎓 Join the Keto Kamp Membership for only $5!: http://www.startketokap.com / E P I S O D E   S P ON S O R S  PureForm Omega Plant Based Oils (Best Alternative to Fish Oil): http://www.purelifescience.com Use ben4 for $4.00 off. ☕️ Purity Coffee: http//:www.ketokampcoffee.com, use ketokamp at checkout for 10% off // R E S O U R C E S ➡️ Keto Kamp Membership for only $5: http://www.startketokamp.com ➡️The World's Best Olive Oil | Get a $39 Bottle For a $1: http://www.ketokampoliveoil.com ☕Healthiest Coffee: http://www.ketokampcoffee.com Use "ketokamp" for 10% off ➡️Keto Kamp Apparel: http://www.ketokampgear.com *Some Links Are Affiliates* // F O L L O W ▸ instagram | @thebenazadi | http://bit.ly/2B1NXKW ▸ facebook | /thebenazadi | http://bit.ly/2BVvvW6 ▸ twitter | @thebenazadi http://bit.ly/2USE0so Disclaimer: This podcast is for information purposes only.

Discover why too much protein on a ketogenic diet will NOT kick your out of ketosis. You will also learn how much protein you should eat on keto, and the most common protein myths, debunked. ▸ 🎁 FREE KETO KAMP BLUEPRINT: http://www.ketokampblueprint.com 🎓 Join the Keto Kamp Membership for only $5!: http://www.startketokap.com   / E P I S O D E   S P ON S O R S  PureForm Omega Plant Based Oils (Best Alternative to Fish Oil): http://www.purelifescience.com Use ben4 for $4.00 off. ☕️ Purity Coffee: http//:www.ketokampcoffee.com, use ketokamp at checkout for 10% off 👇 RELATED VIDEOS  🎥 My 40 Day Carnivore Diet Experience & Lab Work Review: https://youtu.be/_rYkQlBU0t4 🎥 Thomas DeLauer | How Much Protein on Keto & More!: https://youtu.be/o3yewwf8anQ 🎥 10 Part Series on The Ketogenic Diet: https://bit.ly/3qd1bxg I believe eating excessive protein on keto can actually help with weight loss. Here's why... Yes, excess protein can convert into gluconeogenesis inside the body (the creation of sugar), but, if you are in ketosis at the time of consuming the protein, the excess glucose will be used to replenish glycogen stores. This keeps you in a state of ketosis! How much protein converts to glucose? It's true, excess protein turns into glucose. How much protein converts to glucose levels? According to the research of Dr Gabrielle Lyon, about 60% of protein is converted into blood sugars. Will too much protein kick you out of ketosis? As I mentioned above, the excess is used to replenish empty sugar reserves.   So the answer is no, most of the time. A common question I have been asked if eating too much protein will cause weight gain, the opposite is true. The next time someone asks you does eating too much protein make you fat, tell them it is almost impossible. I believe eating more protein can help you with weight loss. Protein is also great because it activates satiety hormones which helps you feel full for longer. Increasing Protein and Fat Will Put You at Risk for Heart Disease Science is showing us that it’s not protein that leads to heart disease, it’s the other stuff that we eat that can clog our arteries. 🎓 Join the Keto Kamp Membership for only $5!: http://www.startketokap.com / E P I S O D E   S P ON S O R S  PureForm Omega Plant Based Oils (Best Alternative to Fish Oil): http://www.purelifescience.com Use ben4 for $4.00 off. ☕️ Purity Coffee: http//:www.ketokampcoffee.com, use ketokamp at checkout for 10% off // R E S O U R C E S ➡️ Keto Kamp Membership for only $5: http://www.startketokamp.com ➡️The World's Best Olive Oil | Get a $39 Bottle For a $1: http://www.ketokampoliveoil.com ☕Healthiest Coffee: http://www.ketokampcoffee.com Use "ketokamp" for 10% off ➡️Keto Kamp Apparel: http://www.ketokampgear.com *Some Links Are Affiliates* // F O L L O W ▸ instagram | @thebenazadi | http://bit.ly/2B1NXKW ▸ facebook | /thebenazadi | http://bit.ly/2BVvvW6 ▸ twitter | @thebenazadi http://bit.ly/2USE0so Disclaimer: This podcast is for information purposes only.
