Ep 70 Dr. Lori Shemek - Intermittent Fasting and Ketogenic Dieting

I am excited to introduce to you our guest this week, best-selling author, radio host, and weight loss expert, Dr. Lori Shemek. Listen to the podcast HERE   In this episode, Dr. Shemek talks to us about the role of inflammation in illness and weight gain. She discusses with us the dangers of the "calorie myth" and the "low fat myth" and why it is important for us to be consuming sources of healthy fats.   We also discuss the importance of omega 3, the best sources of protein, and how we can appropriately gain muscle while losing body fat.   This is an educational episode for those who want to better understand weight loss and regain control over their diet.   Questions I Asked Dr. Shemek: What is the underlying cause of weight gain? What are some indicators of silent inflammation? What are foods that we think are healthy, but are not? Topics Discussed: Foods that shrink fat cells Ways to decrease inflammation Sources of omega 6 that need to be eliminated from our diet   Quotes from the show: "Eliminating sugar from your diet is the best thing you can do" @LoriShemeK "You can live a healthy, optimized life as an older person" @LoriShemeK "Always listen to your body" @LoriShemeK How you can stay in touch with Dr. Shemek: Website Twitter Facebook Instagram   How you can stay in touch with Linda: Website Facebook Twitter Instagram Pinterest YouTube SoundCloud   "Proud Sponsors of the Sisterhood of S.W.E.A.T"   Essential Formulas Giovannicosmetics.com   My daily energy stems from mushrooms... mushroom coffee that is!
