About this listen
Obesity, prediabetes, and type 2 diabetes now affects about 40 percent of the adults in the US. I go over this subject and how we got there as well as what to do to treat and prevent it in several previous books. This book is about how to lose fat. I believe the ketogenic diet is the best practical way to do this for most people.
When I say diet, I mean weight-loss diet. Once you lose the weight, you will have to stop this diet and go on a maintenance diet. I go into great detail on this subject in other books.
I want to prevent these conditions. If you are already obese, first I have to get you to lose fat. I am going to be much more successful if you understand the metabolic basis for this diet and the metabolic consequences for not losing weight. I will get you to lose weight, but then you will have to spend some more money to learn about the common maintenance diet to keep you from just going back to where you started. Some of you who have insulin resistance will have to go on the low carbohydrate version of the maintenance diet. You really don't have much choice....

Story
To summarize it all, if you want a healthy, long, energetic, and disease-free life, you need to start fasting. The earlier you try this, the better off you are going to be. In today’s world, if you go against convention, you can almost guarantee health and longevity. It is the opposite of how it should be. Doctors are supposed to help us get better and not make us drug-addicted health disasters. Health starts with trusting the body to do its job of healing and repairing. You must let go of your regular diet to let the body rest and get better.

Story
Avoid sugars and refined grains. Instead, eat fruits, vegetables, beans, lentils, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy fats (a sensible, plant-based, Mediterranean-style diet). Let your body burn fat between meals. Don’t snack. Be active throughout your day. Build muscle tone. Consider a simple form of intermittent fasting. Limit the hours of the day when you eat, and for best effect, make it earlier in the day (between 7 am to 3 pm, or even 10 am to 6 pm, but definitely not in the evening before bed). Avoid snacking or eating at nighttime, all the time.

For over a century, we've accepted the scientific consensus that cancer results from genetic disease due to chromosomal damage in cell nuclei. But what if scientists are chasing a flawed paradigm? What if cancer isn't a disease of damaged DNA but rather of defective metabolism as a result of mitochondrial dysfunction? What if that startling truth could revolutionize our understanding of other diseases, too - and show us a radical new path to optimal health?

Nowadays, it appears as everybody is speaking about the ketogenic (in short, keto) diet - the really low carbohydrate, moderate protein, high-fat diet plan which transforms the body right into a fat-burning device. The latest scientific studies show that a greater protein, low carb diet plan markets changes in blood lipid details, improved thermogenesis of people with superior results and obesity for weight reduction, insulin resistance, and may assist with resolving the metabolic blocks which could stop weight loss.

Do you want to lose weight quickly while still enjoying your favorite food? Fasting is a mechanism of recycling, and cell renewal makes it possible to make a clean sweep of waste, toxins, pathogens, and cancer cells. Thanks to the mental and physical stress involved in applying fasting, our body produces self-cannibalism on harmful cells and consumes them for energy purposes.
