Welcome to the Doctor Burg healthy keto and intermittent fasting podcast.

Now your host, the man taking your health to a whole new level, Doctor Eric Burg.

So this is a real question from someone that wanted to know what do I do if I accidentally

messed up on keto.

They went to a restaurant and they were served something that was not supposed to have

sugar in it, but it did and they felt tired and irritable after this.

This does happen, especially when you're buying things and maybe you failed to read the

ingredients and then you find out later it had multiple dextriners, a lot of sugar.

And you're wondering why it tasted so good, right?

And then what do you do?

Very, very simple.

In the brain, you can use either sugar fuel, glucose or ketones.

And this is what you need to know.

The brain will always prefer ketones over glucose, which means all you have to do is either

take liquid MCT oil or powdered MCT oil or exogenous ketones.

You can get those as a supplement.

And the liquid MCT oil is a lot less expensive, so you might want to try that, but you could

also use other forms of ketones because all you're trying to do is elevate the amount

of ketones in your blood so the brain can suck them up and use them over sugar and you

can start feeling better immediately.

So this is just a little tip to tell you what to do if you accidentally mess up.
