In this groundbreaking episode of The Optimal Protein Podcast, we dive into a fascinating new randomized controlled trial published in Obesity (link to study) that explores the impact of carbohydrate consumption on ketosis and hunger regulation.

Key Topics Discussed:

• Study Overview: The methodology and key findings of this recent trial, which evaluates how carbohydrates affect ketone production and appetite.

• Carbs and Ketosis: Why carbohydrates are inherently “anti-ketogenic” and how they disrupt the metabolic state of ketosis.

• Hunger Regulation: Evidence from the study that links higher carbohydrate intake to increased hunger levels and how this impacts weight management strategies.

• Practical Implications: What these findings mean for those pursuing ketogenic or low-carb diets for fat loss, body recomposition, and improved metabolic health.

• Satiety and Protein: How prioritizing protein can help counteract the hunger-inducing effects of carbs while supporting sustainable fat loss.

Why This Episode Matters:

This study provides compelling evidence that supports the ketogenic approach to nutrition by highlighting the direct relationship between carbohydrate intake and hunger signaling. Whether you’re a seasoned low-carb enthusiast or someone curious about the benefits of keto, this episode offers valuable insights and actionable takeaways.

0:00.0	Welcome to the Optimal Protein Podcast. I'm Vanessa Spina.
0:05.5	Hello, my friends. Welcome back to the podcast. I'm your host Vanessa and I am super pumped for
0:10.7	today's episode. We are breaking down a brand new study all about carbohydrate restriction
0:16.8	and appetite suppression. And I am so excited about this study because I feel it's very, very
0:23.3	validating, particularly because I have recently experienced going a little bit higher in my
0:30.2	carbohydrate intake and then noticing that I no longer had the same appetite suppression that I
0:35.8	did before. So I recently went back to my higher
0:39.3	protein keto, lower carb approach. And this study, I think, really validates what I've been
0:45.6	talking about recently in the podcast, which is a hypothesis that I have personally that carbs are
0:52.4	anti-ketogenic. And because they are anti-ketogenic they actually drive
0:56.9	hunger and so it's not that carbohydrates are intrinsically bad in themselves the whole food
1:01.8	forms of them I don't think they are bad at all but for some people they do have an effect
1:08.1	on driving hunger and we don't know the exact mechanisms behind this,
1:13.6	but this randomized control trial really explored this.
1:17.0	And they did it really interestingly
1:18.6	with a very fascinating study design.
1:21.9	So I can't wait to break it down with you.
1:23.8	This study is fresh.
1:25.4	Off the Presses was just published in obesity. And this was
1:30.2	2024 November. So fresh off the presses. And I can't wait to break it all down with you all.
1:36.4	So we will get right into today's episode after this quick break.
1:41.6	Hi, friends. What an amazing time to make a fresh start and recommit to our health
