Welcome back to episode 31 of the Ketodontist Podcast! Today, we have a guest on the show Brenda Richards. After spending most of her adult life yo-yo dieting, she had to make a drastic change to lose weight and opted for weight loss surgery.

The side effects and complications of weight loss surgery.

Groups and communities that were instrumental in setting her down the right path.

KDP Episode 030: Mike Berta Talks About his 90% Fat Keto Experiment vs Whole Foods Keto


Welcome back to episode 30 of the Ketodontist Podcast! After a bit of a break, we’re right back at it. Today, we have a guest on the show Mike Berta. Mike has been low carb for a few years, and over this summer performed a self week-long experiment where he tried to consume 90% of his calories from fat to replicate an experiment performed by Dr. John Limansky and Jimmy Moore. His results and specifically his blood markers were…. shocking to say the least.

In this episode we discuss:

How did Mike get started with low carb?

What has been Mike’s experience with keto in the past, and how has it evolved over time?

How having a physician that understands low carb can be of benefit

What prompted him to replicate a week long, 90% fat diet

Did he find fat satiating as claimed in the keto world?

How did this diet impact his blood markers, and how did they respond once going back to his normal diet?

What has been his experience with Ketogains Bootcamps?

How did the two separate experiments differ?

And MORE!

10/10/18 Keto Meal Prep Vlog: Beef, Broccoli, and Mushrooms

Here is an example of simple meal prep when doing Keto for fatloss. Pick a meat, pick a low carb veggie or two. Keep it simple! To echo the Ketogains methodology: target protein, limit carbs, use fat as a lever. If you have extra fat on your body, you don’t need to be eating tons of it.
