Likely, your answer is carbs, like starches, fruit, and other sugars. That’s how it typically works: when you walk, talk, or simply move through your daily routine, you burn energy obtained from dietary carbohydrates.
This is what you need to change!
Often, especially with the modern-day heavy-carb diet, your energy comes from carbohydrates like sugars and starches, which are broken down into glucose, which is then used by the body to move, breathe, think, and … well … LIVE!
Unfortunately, excess glucose that is not fully used as energy converts to glycogen which is then stored as fat. That means if you eat and breakdown more carbs than your body uses in a day, you’re just adding more and more weight to your fat cells— and who wants that??
Carb overload is believed by many experts to be the #1 cause for weight gain and obesity today. As you probably know, people living in modern countries are heavier than ever before. In the US, 1/3 of all people are obese.
Obesity isn’t just about being uncomfortable with your weight, it also leads to debilitating and sometimes deadly conditions including:
- Heart attack
- Stroke
- Various cancers
- Diabetes
- Mental conditions like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s
- High blood pressure
- Inflammation throughout the body
- Self-esteem issues
- Reduced sex drive and performance
- Increased risk of premature death
FORTUNATELY, YOU CAN AVOID THESE ISSUES, AND ALL YOU HAVE TO
DO IS START USING THE RIGHT FUEL FOR ENERGY
There’s only one other fuel your body can use to replace carbohydrates, and that fuel comes from ketones, an alternative form of energy generated by your liver.
There’s only one way to start getting ketones for fuel: by eating carb
smart and forcing your body to burn stored fat for energy. This is done by entering a state called ketosis— and that’s where Keto-Diet 2.0 comes in!
