KETO DIET: What NEW STUDIES Show Is WRONG! - Dr. Gundry

*****
Summary of Transcript:
Stephen Gundry discussed how understanding ketones and ketosis has changed since the late 1800s, including how incorporating the ketogenic diet as a treatment for children with seizure disorders in 1930 was a significant breakthrough.
• He highlighted how MCT oil can reduce fat intake while still producing ketones, allowing for more carbohydrates and protein.
• Through research, it was discovered that ketones are beneficial in creating energy production, protecting mitochondria, and making them into efficient fat-burning machines.
• Gundry noted how his program has been using MCT oil since day one, which allowed for carbohydrates to be part of the ketogenic diet.

Summary of Description:
This article overviews Dr. Steven Gundry’s discussion on the ketogenic diet and why mitochondrial uncoupling is critical to weight loss. He explains why ketones are a signaling molecule and how to get the benefits of ketosis without full ketosis. He also discusses the benefits of polyphenols and the importance of cycling in and out of ketosis. For more information, visit his Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube websites.

The ketogenic diet is so popular that it was searched over 25 million times in one year. Some experts support its effectiveness in helping people lose weight, while others claim it’s the worst diet. Research and data have advanced and proven that everyone has it wrong. Dr. Steven Gundry is with Tom explaining why he and the rest of the medical community got ketosis all wrong. He shares why mitochondrial uncoupling is the star. You need to know this to make your dieting experience more effortless—you no longer need to live entirely without carbohydrates on a keto diet.

QUOTES:

“50 percent of normal weight individuals have no metabolic flexibility.” [13:03]

“At full ketosis, humans can only meet 30% of their calorie needs by burning ketones. The rest have to come from free fatty acids and glucose.” [19:09]

“Ketones are not a super fuel; they are a signaling molecule that tells mitochondria to protect themselves at all cost from damage” [20:15]

“In a ketogenic diet, if you waste fuel, do it right, and uncouple your mitochondria, you weed six dogs instead of one, and that’s where the benefit of ketosis comes from.” [30:21]

“You want to cycle in and out of ketosis on a 24-hour basis.” [49:37]

“It’s the cycling in and out of getting the benefits of ketosis. Without full ketosis, that makes all the difference.” [56:29]
