Coming up on today's show.

0:02.1

I did the experiment. So I did 90 days of carnivore. And the couple of interesting things happened.

0:06.3

I've dropped 6% body fat, meaning a total of 6% body fat reduction during the 90 days. And I didn't even

0:12.2

realize that I needed to lose those 6% body fat. But my body did it. So I got really lean.

0:17.2

My abs got more defined. I lost 16 pounds in the 90 days as well. So 6% body fat, 16

0:22.6

pounds. Everything in my gut microbiome improved. My diversity improved. Not just that.

0:29.1

Seven core bacteria showed up on my day 90 test that did not show up on day one and five

0:35.9

keystone bacteria showed up on day 90 that was not there

0:39.8

on day one doing the complete opposite of what most people think you need to do to improve

0:46.1

it went up to 350. Super high. Oh my gosh. However,

1:12.7

When it comes to the ketogenic diet, what are the biggest mistakes you see people making

1:17.9

that are sabotaging the results? Well, the biggest mistake is looking at it as a diet.

1:23.8

Although keto technically can be a diet, it's more of a metabolic process. So I think a lot of people

1:28.7

who go into keto, Jesse, they go into it looking to lose weight. I'm going to use this as a diet to lose

1:34.1

weight. And yes, it could help you do that for sure. But I think a lot of people don't know that it's

1:39.1

actually a metabolic process that we're all designed to use. Ketones are simply a byproduct of burning

1:46.0

stored fat. And there's nothing new about keto. It's just new or nuance to some people,

1:51.8

but it's been around for as long as humans have existed. As a matter of fact, it's one of the
