from Keto Made Simple - Learn With Doctor Westman · host Adapt Your Life

Send us Fan MailDr. Eric Westman sits down with Craig Emmerich, co-author of The Art of Metabolic Health, to discuss why metabolic health is often misunderstood by modern medicine and how low carb, keto, carnivore, protein, and fat-burning can change the way we think about chronic disease. Craig shares how his wife Maria’s health journey led them into the low carb world, why doctors still often fail to ask about food, how the body prioritizes alcohol, glucose, fat, and protein, and why ketosis is a normal metabolic state rather than something to fear. They also discuss dementia, kidney health, coffee, children’s nutrition, protein, and the power of real food in helping people take back their health. #MetabolicHealth #KetoDiet #lowcarb 01:31 Craig Emmerich’s Low Carb Story04:29 How Carnivore Helped His Health06:19 The Art of Metabolic Health08:04 Why Metabolic Health Is an Art09:52 Thousands of Diet Success Stories11:21 Why This Book Was Needed12:29 Keto, Carnivore and Finding What Works14:47 Oxidative Priority Explained16:27 Why Your Body Burns Carbs First17:34 The Carb and Fat Problem22:58 Why Ketones May Improve Energy24:18 When Higher Ketones Matter27:05 Where the Research Should Go Next28:25 Dementia, Keto and Real-World Results32:28 Gut Disease, Protein and Kidney Concerns45:06 Why Testimonials Matter46:17 Craig’s Coaching and Resources48:23 Final Thoughts on The Art of Metabolic Health👁️ Seen a video you'd like me to react to?
