Recommendation

Keto diets have been getting it wrong all along, contends renowned cardiologist Steven R. Gundry – and that’s why so many people fail to see results. Instead of acting as a super fuel, ketones play a key role in regulating metabolism within the cells, Gundry argues. This insight forms the basis of the Keto Code, a detailed, multifaceted program to alter mitochondrial function and help you lose weight, get healthier and live longer. According to Gundry, the Keto Code program offers all the benefits of a traditional ketogenic diet, with far more flexibility and fewer restrictions. Alongside thorough descriptions of the science, Gundry provides recipes and tips for food preparation.

Take-Aways

  • Conventional wisdom about the keto diet makes out ketones to be a super fuel.
  • In reality, ketones work by causing mitochondria to uncouple and waste calories.
  • The Keto Code program aims to stimulate mitochondrial uncoupling via ketones and nutrients that promote uncoupling.
