If you are interested in the low-carb, moderate protein, high-fat, ketogenic diet, then this is the podcast for you. We zero in exclusively on all the questions people have about how being in a state of nutritional ketosis and the effects it has on your health.

I’m trying to reverse my insulin resistance by keeping my protein lower (50-70g\/day). But I wonder if the type of protein can make a difference. Specifically, I’m curious about collagen because I like to add it to my KetoCocoa for a quick, <\/em>high fat meal replacement on-the-go meal. Thanks so much!<\/em><\/p>\n Amberly<\/em><\/p>\n HEADLINE: Is the ketogenic diet right for you? Nutritionists weigh in: http:\/\/www.today.com\/health\/ketogenic-diet-not-recommended-weight-loss-experts-say-t105932<\/a><\/p>\n JIMMY AND ADAM\u2019S NEW KETO LIVING SUPPLEMENTS<\/strong> 1. Can a ketogenic diet help manage lipedema and are there any concerns going keto with this condition?<\/p>\n Hello Jimmy and Dr. Nally,<\/em><\/p>\n I suspect I have the fat disorder called lipedema, also known as\u00a0\u201cpainful fat syndrome.\u201d It is a chronic condition of adipose tissue and lymphatic vessel dysfunction which manifests as bilateral, symmetrical fatty excess on the hips and legs.\u00a0It can be progressive, causing immobility and lymphedema. The lipedema fat is not accessible to normal weight loss techniques.\u00a0 Despite the fact this afflicts approximately 11% of women, it is difficult to get a diagnosis for it in the United States. In the future, I will likely visit an endocrinologist who I know specializes in this.\u00a0In the meantime, I have done a lot of reading and as a Masters Prepared\u00a0Registered Nurse I feel I am interpreting the literature correctly\u00a0in thinking I have lipedema.<\/em><\/p>\n I have been\u00a0on a whole foods-based ketogenic diet\u00a0for two years and frequently check my\u00a0blood glucose and blood ketone levels.\u00a0I have lost 25 pounds and\u00a0am experiencing\u00a0great improvements in my physical, emotional, and cognitive function.\u00a0 Unfortunately, my legs and upper arms have not changed at all and with the onset of menopause,\u00a0they just continue to grow.\u00a0The pain is getting more frequent and I feel very sad\u00a0that despite my success and warrior-like attitude, I may not be able to overcome this challenge.<\/em><\/p>\n My current endocrinologist recommends against eating a ketogenic diet and many of her statements sound like the typical outdated dietary advice. So here are my questions for you:\u00a0\u00a0Do you have any experience with lipedema and the ketogenic diet? Do you see any reason why ketosis would be contraindicated? Do you have any suggestions for dealing with this disorder and halting its progression?<\/em><\/p>\n Thank <\/em>you both for the wonderful podcast.\u00a0 I geek out on the science and gain\u00a0tools and motivation every time I listen.\u00a0 Jimmy, you have changed my life\u2014so THANK YOU!<\/em><\/p>\n Warm regards,<\/em><\/p>\n Susan<\/em><\/p>\n GET FROZEN KETO PIZZA FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER<\/strong> 2. If my blood sugar is high and my blood ketones are low while eating keto, then can I assume I\u2019m burning muscle?<\/p>\n Jimmy and Adam,<\/em><\/p>\n Thank you for the podcast and all the great information about the ketogenic diet. I have been doing my own version of keto for the last two months and have had incredible success losing 25 pounds so far with 25 more to go. I feel amazing with no hunger cravings, tons of energy, and no more afternoon naps from the sugar crash.<\/em><\/p>\n Since I am likely losing weight because of the reduction in calories, I am now concerned that I am burning muscle for energy instead of my stored body fat.\u00a0I assume I\u2019m burning muscle because my blood glucose remains so high and ketones are very low despite not eating any carbohydrates except for vegetables. How can I seemingly still be a sugar burner without eatings sugar or carbs? I am really confused and disappointed by all of this and it\u2019s making me feel discouraged about my ketogenic plan. I feel really energized and I\u2019m losing weight, but I am nervous that the weight loss I am experiencing is muscle and not fat. Can you help put my mind at ease about this?<\/em><\/p>\n Thanks again and have a great day!!<\/em><\/p>\n Ryan<\/em><\/p>\n 3. Is dehydration robbing me of energy on my ketogenic diet? What can I do to get properly hydrated while keto?<\/p>\n Hi Jimmy and The Doc,<\/em><\/p>\n I love Keto Talk because it encourages me in my own ketogenic journey. I\u2019ve been in and out of ketosis for the past 3-4 years and I typically get kicked out because of some \u201ccarbage\u201d that I allow in my diet. I\u2019m a 30-year old male and consume around 3,000 calories daily eating a fat\/protein\/carbohydrate ratio of 75\/20\/5. My blood sugar runs 88-112 mg\/dL and my blood ketones are 0.4-1.1 mmol.<\/em><\/p>\n My problem is with plummeting energy levels and dehydration as I work a physically demanding job outside in Florida\u2019s hot summer weather as well as strength training for about 45 minutes\/4 days a week. What can I do to stay hydrated? I currently drink over 3 liters of water\/day and bring a Hass avocado with sea salt to work for a snack. Is it likely that my energy levels will increase if I stick with this more consistently over the long-term?<\/em><\/p>\n Here\u2019s a rundown of the foods I eat on my ketogenic diet:<\/em><\/p>\n Fat: Kerrygold butter, grass fed beef, coconut oil, coconut butter, eggs, avocados, macadamia nuts, cream cheese<\/em><\/p>\n Protein: beef, chicken wings, eggs, canned oysters, lamb<\/em><\/p>\n Carb: mixed greens, asparagus, green beans, coconut butter, lemon, occasionally raw tomato. I ate a mango last week before my workout\u2026ca<\/em>n’t say I regret it. It gave me a super boost.<\/em><\/p>\n Thanks in advance for your input.<\/em><\/p>\n Sincerely,<\/em><\/p>\n Frank<\/em><\/p>\n A WEBSITE DESIGNED FOR THE KETOGENIC ATHLETE<\/strong> KETO TALK MAILBOX<\/p>\n – Share more about the practical use of taking phentermine as part of a ketogenic approach<\/p>\n On Episode 47, Adam mentioned stimulant-based supplements and mentioned that he writes a prescription for phentermine for about one-third of his patient population for a few months. So I have a few questions about this:<\/em><\/p>\n 1) When do you decide to prescribe phentermine?<\/em><\/p>\n 2) How do you instruct patients to take it while starting a ketogenic diet? (i.e. dosage, when to take, etc.)<\/em><\/p>\n 3) Do you also instruct patients to intermittently fast for several hours after taking the medication? (i.e. take it in the morning and then don\u2019t eat until the afternoon)<\/em><\/p>\n I take phentermine to control my hunger but haven’t taken any recently.\u00a0\u00a0I’m one of those people who seems to be hungry all of the time despite increasing my fat and calories. My blood glucose is always under 100 and my A1c is 5.1. I have a hard time with getting keto-adapted and am looking to use phentermine for a few months to help me kickstart my keto journey.\u00a0\u00a0I have successfully been in ketosis before so I know it will shut my hunger off.\u00a0\u00a0I’m just having a hard time with the transition this time around.<\/em><\/p>\n Thanks so much for all that you do!<\/em><\/p>\n Leslie<\/em><\/p>\n iTunes review:<\/p>\n BECOME A NUTRITIONAL THERAPY PRACTITIONER<\/strong> LINKS MENTIONED IN EPISODE\u00a050<\/strong><\/p>\n \u2013 Listen to Jimmy\u2019s new Friday podcast: Fasting Talk with Jimmy Moore & Dr. Jason Fung Featuring Megan Ramos<\/a> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" [powerpress] LISTEN AND DOWNLOAD AT ITUNES If you are interested in the low-carb, moderate protein, high-fat, ketogenic diet, then this is the podcast for you.
