Summary

Carl and Richard discuss alcohol, how it is metabolized, particularly by those eating a ketogenic diet. They discuss the carbohydrate content of typical drinks, and share a couple yummy keto-friendly cocktail recipes. Errata: Richard said he'd had 3 Bottles of Moët before the show - but it was actually 3 GLASSES of Moët. Also Richard said he didn't know of research substantiating Alcohol inhibiting gluconeogenesis and 5 minutes after we finished recording he found one from Hans Krebs (linked below). Update: May 11, 2016: Carl did an n=1 study on himself by following a 22/2 intermittent fasting pattern for 3 weeks. He ate only dinner, but had drinks with and after dinner. The result was a big plateau. No major weight loss. He then did a 2 day fast and started eating his one meal at lunch time (with no alcohol) saving the drinks for the evening. The results were positive. He started losing a pound a day. His hypothesis: When you drink alcohol your liver stops metabolizing food and focuses on the alcohol. Once all the calories are extracted from the alcohol the liver goes right back to metabolizing food, but now your caloric intake has increased and some of the calories from the food will not be used, and some of the fat will be stored in the fat cells. By giving the body time to process the food intake, you allow the liver to do it's job. More fat gets burned. By the time you introduce alcohol a bigger chunk of your lunch has already been metabolized. Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/2-keto-dudes/donations

0:31.0	Hey Kito Freaks. This is Carl. Do you or someone you know have trouble focusing? You know what I'm talking about. You sit down to read something, try to figure out your monthly budget, write that novel you've been putting off, or maybe you just can't seem to do one task at a time. Well, you may not know this, but I'm a musician, as well as a time. Well you may not know this but I'm a musician as well as a software
0:35.2	developer. Programming is a job that requires focus, long periods of
0:40.3	uninterrupted work. It's hard. For them and for you I've created music to
0:46.6	code by. This is music yes but it's specifically and scientifically designed to
0:52.4	promote focus.
0:54.0	Studies show that when math students were exposed to Baroque music
0:57.2	between 60 and 80 beats per minute,
0:59.5	they did better with comprehension and testing.
1:02.0	So I created more modern music that is neither boring nor distracting
1:06.8	but falls within that tempo range. It's just the right mix. I also made the pieces 25 minutes long. That correlates to research
1:15.5	that shows we all get brain fatigue after 20 or so minutes of hard focus. The
1:21.0	result is thousands of happy customers.
1:24.0	Now you don't have to be a programmer to reap the benefits of music to code by.
1:28.0	It has been known to soothe restless pets, calm fussy babies, and even help autistic kids relax and fall asleep.

1:41.0	net. Oh, Welcome back to two kido dudes. I'm Carl Franklin in Connecticut in the United States
2:15.1	and just a couple months ago I put myself on a ketogenic diet to take control of my
2:19.4	metabolism and that time I managed to reverse all my markers of type 2 diabetes with diet alone.
2:25.6	Hi I'm Richard Morris in Canberra Australia.
2:28.6	I've been on a ketogenic diet since April of 2014 so that's two years and when I started I was very sick with
2:35.0	complications from type 2 diabetes and within six months of starting a
2:38.7	ketogenic diet all of my biomarkers of disease had disappeared and we're going to share the progress of my journey through Katosis and Richards' experience
