082: Quit running, and eat fat (here’s why)
By now, you’ve probably heard all about the keto diet.
Maybe you’ve heard it can help you lose weight, feel sharper, and more. Or maybe you’ve read articles saying that it’s actually dangerous.
Well, my guest today wants to help you sort out fact from fiction.
Mark Sisson is the founder of Primal Kitchen, former marathoner, and bestselling author. He also has a brand new book out called Keto for Life and it’s a GREAT primer for anyone looking to try the keto diet.
And on today’s episode, Mark and I are going to talk about weeding through decades of diet myths, the importance of adding FAT to your diet, and whether long-distance is really good for you.
Trust me — you’ll want to tune in for ALL of this one.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- How cutting ONE staple food from his diet changed Mark’s life: “The arthritis in my feet went away” (5:00)
- Why most diets work — and why it’s NOT about the food you’re eating (10:00)
- How you can hop off the “carbohydrate roller coaster” and start burning more FAT (13:00)
- Why you sometimes feel “hungry” even when you’re not actually hungry (16:05)
- How to beat the dreaded “keto flu” (and it’s a lot easier than you think) (22:00)
- 3 reasons why you don’t need to sacrifice to go keto (27:15)
- Why you feel “hangry” — and how to fix it forever (30:15)
- How to run a marathon with the LEAST amount of pain and suffering (hint: Run slower) (49:45)
- Why THIS food is just as important as fats, carbohydrates, and protein (55:30)
- Why this hormone is FAR more important for your immune system than Vitamin C — plus, how to get more of it (58:00)
- My favorite substitute for corn (1:05:45)
