Okay , guys .
We wanna talk about what is ketosis a little bit more on this topic .
Ketosis is this , when you avoid consuming glucose or sugar for 10 to 12 hours , your body will then start to , make ketones .
K ?
Ketones are basically the byproduct of fat burning .
And you can even test yourself on ketones .
There's these strips you can get at the drugstore called ketone strips .
And you check your urine , it'll be like in a a different shade of purple .
So if it's really dark purple , it's like major ketosis .
If it's light purple , it's minor ketosis .
So you can check to see if you're burning fat or not .
The thing that you need to know is when we convert our body from sugar to fat , it takes between 3 days to 2 weeks up to 6 weeks depending how long you've been running your body in sugar .
In other words , your body has to create new machinery in the cells .
So So it's very similar to let's say you're running your house on coal to heat it , right ?
And then we're gonna have to run it on electric fuel .
Electric heating , I'm sorry not fuel .
You're gonna have to install new machinery , hook up wires to be able to run your body .
Same thing with running your body in a fat fuel .
This is like diesel fuel or coal .
It's very dirty .
This is like solar or electric cars .
Very clean , no waste , quiet .
So to to do this , it could take anywhere from 1 week to 6 weeks .
Okay ?
So in the process , I'm gonna be showing you what to do because if you don't do this correctly , you could end up with a lot of issues .
Okay ?
So we're gonna show you how to do it healthily .
But but here's the thing , when we run our body on ketones , it's much more stable with your blood sugar because you won't have the highs and lows anymore .
So you're gonna be very level headed .
Your brain's gonna love it .
Your your memory's gonna be sharper .
You'll you'll just be right there all the time , better focus , more efficient fuel , less dirty , less complications .
Ketones are the original fuel source .
It's the original fuel of the brain .
Our bodies long ago , ran in ketones .
Why ?
Because we couldn't necessarily eat all the sugar that we had .
We didn't eat 3 meals a day or 6 meals a day .
We didn't eat the junk food .
So our bodies originally were designed to run on ketones , not sugar .
It's only till very recently that we've been eating sugar .
So we're gonna go back to what your body is designed to to run on and it's it's much better .
I will never go back to running my body on sugar because once you feel feel the benefits , you won't go back .
Now the other thing is that , ketosis protects protein .
In In other words , when you go on this eating plan , it's you're not gonna have to worry about your body eating up your own protein .
That's only when you have insulin .
So your body's not gonna convert protein into fat .
So people are always concerned , am I gonna lose muscle mass ?
No no no .
You're gonna gain muscle mass .
Your your ligaments , tendons , collagen is gonna get better .
Now what's gonna happen , you can lose a lot of weight with this program .
The thing is that , let's say you didn't lose a lot of weight , it doesn't necessarily you didn't burn fat .
But the best indicator because what's happening is you could actually , gain muscle mass and lose fat and actually weigh the same because muscle weighs more than fat .
So the best indicator to know it's working is the ketone strips or a tape measure around your waist at the very outer harsh portion .
So you check the waist every week and you can measure and see how many inches you lost .
That's the ultimate measurement of success .
Okay ?
Because who cares what you weigh if you can get a flat stomach .
So the problem is it's gonna be very expensive .
You have to get rid of all your old clothes , your old belts , your old suits , your shirts , get all new clothes .
It's gonna be very very expensive .
You can blame me .
Okay .
So when you do this also , you're gonna get rid of a lot of excess fluid .
Now , sugar always follows fluid and or fluid follows sugar .
So if you get rid of all the sugar , you're gonna get rid of the fluid as well .
Okay ?
So when you get rid of the fluid , you're gonna lose you might lose up to , I don't know , £10 in the 1st week .
Some people lose £10 .
That's fluid .
The most fat that you can burn per week is £2 .
That's in a healthy body .
Anything more , it's just fluid .
So anyway , I wanted to kind of explain the time frame it takes , what we're trying to do .
We're trying to switch over to ketones .
It's a better fuel source .
And , let's let's show you the next next video .
