“As a starting point, Dr. Attia suggests people consume just enough protein to maintain and grow muscle mass. The oral glucose tolerance test, which monitors glucose and insulin levels, can be used to determine carbohydrate limits. The balance of one's daily caloric needs is made up by fat.”

“A ketogenic diet is higher in fat and contains fewer carbohydrates than the typical American diet, and implementing it is challenging. If you rapidly start a ketogenic diet, you are more likely to experience side effects including disrupted sleep and lipid abnormalities.”

“Nutritional ketosis, achieved by following a high fat, low carbohydrate diet, has therapeutic effects for a broad range of neurological disorders, particularly seizures. To aid with his research in this area, Dr. D'Agostino is developing ketone supplements – ketone esters and ketone mineral salts.”

“The participants performing exercise (without protein) maintained their aerobic capacity and body fat percentage, but these outcomes worsened in the control group. Resistance Exercise Training Increases Muscle Mass and Strength in Prostate Cancer Patients on Androgen Deprivation Therapy.”

“Scientists have also identified interesting links between depression and obesity – likely mediated by elevated inflammation, since fat cells produce a wide array of inflammatory factors. In this Aliquot segment, psychiatrist Dr. Charles Raison describes the links between inflammation and depression.”

“Saturated fat can increase cholesterol synthesis and reduce hepatic LDL-receptor-mediated clearance, although individual responses vary greatly. Food pattern, genetics, and energy balance therefore require measurement rather than assumptions.”

“Someone who has obesity or overweight will preferentially lose body fat when reducing caloric intake, drawing on fat stores long before tapping into muscle stores. But a leaner person will begin to lose muscle much sooner – and to a greater degree – compromising their goals for recomp.”

“Protein improves satiety, helping control hunger, and supports fat loss by preserving lean body mass during calorie restriction. Combined with resistance training, a high-protein diet ensures more weight loss comes from fat rather than muscle.”

“02:40:00 - Shift workers are more likely to develop cancer and type 2 diabetes. Study. 02:44:20 - The controversies surrounding saturated fat.”

“Autophagy, a type of cellular recycling program, influences many aspects of health and disease, including cancer, neurodegenerative disease, and aging. Nutrient sensing is integral to autophagy, particularly concentrations of acetyl CoA, an end product of protein, fat, and carbohydrate metabolism.”
