Hey Superstars! ✨ We’ve learned what Keto is and how it uses the power of low insulin to unlock your fat stores…. While weight loss is a huge win for many people, the benefits of a low-carb, high-fat lifestyle go way beyond the scale!
One of the most significant effects is the reversal of type 2 diabetes. Because Keto is a version of a low-carbohydrate ketogenic diet, and low carb has been proven for decades to reverse type 2 diabetes, it makes perfect metabolic sense why Keto does the same.
Obesity can also be reversed. Lowering carbs brings down blood glucose, insulin, and insulin resistance, which is often the root cause of obesity for many people. By staying on a low-carb or carnivore diet, people can lose weight and actually maintain it.
Got gluten issues? The Keto or Carnivore diet is inherently gluten-free. For people with gluten enteropathy or celiac disease, simply removing gluten can fix the problem. Sometimes, a strict, totally gluten-free and very low-carb approach is needed to get massive health benefits.
Struggling with sugar cravings or binge eating? A Keto diet eliminates sugar, ultra-processed foods, and seed oils, which can play a role in medical issues or addiction. The pathways for sugar addiction are pretty similar to those for drug addiction. When you stop eating sugar, your taste buds can actually change! Things you used to crave might not appeal to you anymore, and your sensitivity to sweetness decreases. Lowering your carbs can help your tastes adjust.
Plus, running on fat (producing ketones) can provide sustained energy and mental clarity, helping you avoid those dreaded blood sugar crashes. Many people also report reduced inflammation and improved health markers like A1C, fasting insulin, triglycerides, and HDL….
While long-term studies on strictly carnivore diets are still ongoing, the huge health improvements people see in the short-term are why these diets are becoming so popular…. The potential benefits are significant.
Feeling inspired? In our next post, we’ll get practical and talk about all the delicious, low-carb foods you can eat!
Experience the health benefits that nobody’s talking about (but should be)!
