This video is all about the keto diet and what you need to know and understand about it.

The ketogenic diet is a very low carbohydrate diet, and it’s different from what we recommend in our Fit Father Project meal plans.

We don’t think it’s the most optimal approach for most middle-aged people who want to live healthily and have a sustainable lifestyle over the long haul.

All the calories that are in foods come from three main macronutrients: proteins, carbohydrates, and fats.

Keto diets basically eliminate carbohydrates from the diet, so the calories you’re getting come from proteins and fats.

The keto diet also doesn’t allow any high-sugar or highly processed foods, so a lot of people end up feeling healthier and lose a lot of weight, so they feel like it’s a really good solution.

The problem is, and this is my overall diet perspective, is any diet that’s restrictive from the get-go is going to cause friction in the long term.

And things that cause friction in the long term are going to set you up for derailing your progress.

Now, I am all for eating a lower carbohydrate diet, particularly if you’re cutting out a lot of bad carbs like processed sugars and grains that don’t have much nutritional value.

But, the Fit Father Project meal plans intentionally include carbs because of a few key reasons.

We discuss those reasons — and so much more — in this episode.

It’s time to learn the TRUTH about keto!

In this episode, you’ll learn:
– What the keto diet is and what its goals are.
– The importance of a healthy, functioning metabolism — and how to achieve it.
– How to become insulin sensitive and metabolically flexible.
– The science of intermittent fasting.
– The importance of sleep and hydration.
– And so much more!
