Summary

In this episode, we’ll talk all about counting calories. Here is an overview of this episode: Why cutting calories only works short term The difference between intermittent fasting & counting calories Where the energy expenditure hypothesis came from (this will shock you) Why you cannot outsmart the human body Get my FREE Keto Kickstart Guide: www.ketokickstartguide.com YouTube Channel: www.youtube.com/ketokamp My Favorite Keto Coffee: www.ketokampcofee.com 03:45 A story about a woman named Sandra who hired a nutritionist to help her lose weight, and this nutritionists (backward) approach of telling her to eat less and move more. This story powerfully illustrates why you cannot outsmart the human body. 08:03 Where did this energy expenditure hypothesis come from, and why are dietitians and nutritionists still promoting this? This will shock you. 08:35 Faith vs fear. Faith and fear both demand for you to believe in something you cannot see; you choose! 09:12 Food is information. What really matters are the hormonal response from calories. We are a dynamic system. At this point of the episode I give an analogy I learned from Gary Taubes 10:10 A simple example of why quality is much more important than quantity. I can give 500 calories to one person of brownies day after day. I can give the same 500 calories to another person of a kale salmon salad day after day. Will there be a difference? You bet! 10:48 A brilliant analogy from Dr. Jason Fung about proximate cause vs ultimate cause. 12:30 With calories in vs calories out, you don't have enough data. It doesn't tell you about hormones, cell membrane inflammation, mold exposure, silver fillings, and many other hidden stressors contributing to weight gain. 13:10 The difference between intermittent fasting while cutting calories, and cutting your calories while eating small portion control meals every 2-3 hours. The biggest difference here is counter regulatory hormones. Intermittent fasting is not about eating less, its about eating less often. 15:45 There's a cause of every effect. We don't lose weight to get healthy, we get healthy to lose weight. Einstein said it best, "Intellectuals solver problems. Geniuses prevent them." 16:15 A perfect example of why chasing symptoms only sets you up for longterm failure.

0:00.0	Coming up on episode 11 of the keto camp podcast, we discuss calories in versus calories out.
0:07.4	Does it really work? Oh, yeah. The human body is not a math equation. The human body is not a bank account. The human body is a very complex chemistry lab and we need to start treating it as such.
0:38.6	Giving the advice of eating less and moving more in order to lose weight does not give you enough data and it should actually be laughed at because if Bill Gates was giving a
0:46.6	seminar on how to become wealthy and somebody in the audience asked Bill Gates
0:51.0	Bill how are you so rich?
0:54.0	And Bill responds to this gentleman in the audience, and he says,
0:58.0	I'm rich because I spend less than I earn. I'm a certified functional health practitioner who's on a mission
1:09.2	to educate 1 billion people. I've been obese for most of my life. From rock bottom to the top of the
1:15.9	mountain I am passionate about studying ancient healing strategies like fasting
1:21.0	in the ketogenic diet and curating this information on the keto camp podcast.
1:26.7	My goal is to bring you the thought leaders in this space.
1:30.7	My name is Benazati and I want to thank you for spending part of your day with me.
1:35.0	In this episode of the Keto Camp Podcast, we're going to talk all about the calories in versus calories out approach, eat less, move more. Does it really work for
1:45.5	weight loss, it's work for health? We've talked about it before. The episode
1:49.9	earlier this week with Dr. Don Klum, he talked about it and he gave a very in-depth
1:54.9	analysis on why he believes it does not work. I also had Dr. Jason Fung talk about the biggest
2:00.5	loser contestants and what went wrong with them. We also had Dr.
2:04.3	Ken Berry saying that it is just a flawed approach. I want to talk more about this
2:09.2	subject because it's the private biggest subject that I get the most heat over and a lot of the
2:15.1	functional health practitioners in my space also to get called out by PhD saying,
2:19.7	yes, it's the law of thermodynamics and how could you refute that and there's a lot of
2:25.0	confusion in misinformation when it comes to this approach so in this episode you
