Hey, what up guys?

Welcome back at the Jeremy Scott Fitness podcast and radio show.

Coming to you today with an episode on request from many of you on essentially the keto diet,

If it's for you, what's my take on it, the science behind it, and anything in between.

Just because I think it's so restrictive in terms of carbohydrates.

I know a lot of people like to, you know, drink booze and eat cookies and have shit in between there.

So for a lot of people, this doesn't work, but for the people we have here who can sell

So with that said, the Keogenic diet is basically a low carbohydrate, you know, moderate

protein, higher fat diet, which puts your body into this metabolic state known as ketosis.

Essentially, that's where the name comes from.

It's pretty simple.

Essentially, what it means is that when you figure out your macros, your proteins,

carbs, and fats breakdown, which we've talked about in other podcasts,
