The Art Of Ketogenic Living | Ben Azadi

from AYIK KAFA · host Dr. Esra Çavuşoğlu

Dr. Esra Çavuşoğlu, PhD’s guest is Ben Azadi. A functional diagnostic nutrition practitioner, best-selling author, and the founder of Keto Kamp, Ben Azadi delves into the intricacies of the ketogenic diet, stressing its utility in shifting the body's energy utilization from sugars to fats. Azadi explains the "2-2-2-2 Rule." The 2-2-2-2 Rule works as follows: The goal is to teach the body to burn fat for energy instead of glucose, and to acclimate the body to burning fat rather than glucose. For 7 days, a total of 6 tablespoons of butter, ghee, avocado oil, olive oil, and coconut oil are consumed each day. When carbohydrates are eliminated, the burning of sugar (glucose) stops, and the body switches to burning fat. As a result, the metabolism adapts to fat burning, leading to healthy weight loss.  He also shares insights from his personal experiments, like the 90-day carnivore diet challenge. #EsraÇavuşoğlu #AyıkKafa #ElevatingLifeEvolvingHealth #Longevilab #SoberHead #BenAzadi #KetojenicLifestyle #Longevity Ben Azadi Website: https://www.benazadi.com YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUh_MOM621MvpW_HLtfkLyQ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thebenazadi/  00:00-7:47 Introduction: Importance of switching energy sources for optimal health. 7:47-11:50 The issue with modern medicine focusing solely on disease treatment.11:50-12:33 The importance of using ketones as a powerful energy source.12:33-13:11 The impact of the three main macronutrients: protein, carbohydrate, and fat on insulin. 13:11-15:06 The goal of a keto lifestyle: consuming less than 50 grams of carbohydrates per day. 15:06-20:19 Muscle is a longevity organ: Consuming protein helps preserve muscle mass, is satiating, and keeps you full. 20:19-20:28 Mitochondria are the body’s batteries, and ketones power them up. 20:28-21:47 A keto flex day is not a cheat day! 21:47-24:22 The "2-2-2-2 rule" focusing on increasing healthy fat intake. 24:22-26:23 How to prevent a weight loss plateau? 26:23-28:32 “Franken foods” and their harms. 28:32-30:26 The concepts of dirty keto and clean keto. 30:26-31:45 The list of bad fats. 31:45-33:37 Why is lamb safer than beef? 33:37-37:01 What is consumed on a ketogenic day? 37:01-38:32 Foods that break the keto diet.38:32-39:01 Foods that break intermittent fasting. 39:01-39:51 Intermittent fasting is a stressor for the body.
