Can the Nervous System Be Hacked?
One morning in May 1998, Kevin Tracey converted a room in his lab at the Feinstein Institute for Medical Research in Manhasset, N.Y., into a makeshift operating theater and then prepped his patient — a rat — for surgery.

This is a very important summary that can hopefully grab the attention of some people. What I focus on is a very common misconception that patients tell me.
They say sugar is fine. My glucose is ok. Well think again. Many already have a #Metabolic storm and they do not know it.
This study shows how some people with normal #glucose tolerance test can have #insulinresistance. Insulin resistance is linked to MANY issues but a very concerning one is cardiovascular health. It can disrupt your Endothelium (layer in your vessel) and play an important role in atherosclerosis (plaque build up) before you know it.
Key Point or #TLDR You can be on your way to #MetabolicSyndrome and not know it. A #Ketogenicdiet #intermittentfasting #lchf #lchfdiet can help you avoid / revert this issues. #ifastloca
One of my favorite go to snacks or cravings. I love Peanut butter so here I use 2 TableSpoons of PBFIT with 2 TableSpoons of C8 (Capric Acid) MCT (If you are not used to Capric Acid then use only 1 tablespoon and mix it with 1 Tablespoon of Olive oil to avoid GI issues.
Add Macadamia nuts or Pili nuts. Very low carb. Total snack 4 hr of net carbs.

Used bacon grease in both the RibEye and Liver. I started eating liver because I looked into it's nutritional content. This thing should be considered a #SuperFood
Here are the nutrients found in a 3.5-ounce (100-gram) serving of beef liver (1): Vitamin B12: 3,460% of the RDI. Vitamin B12 helps the formation of red blood cells and DNA. It is also involved in healthy brain function (2). Vitamin A: 860–1,100% of the RDI. Vitamin A is important for normal vision, immune function and reproduction. It also helps organs like the heart and kidneys function properly (3). Riboflavin (B2): 210–260% of the RDI. Riboflavin is important for cellular development and function. It also helps turn food into energy (4). Folate (B9): 65% of the RDI. Folate is an essential nutrient that plays a role in cell growth and the formation of DNA (5). Iron: 80% of the RDI, or 35% for women of menstruating age. Iron is another essential nutrient that helps carry oxygen around the body. The iron in liver is heme iron, the kind most easily absorbed by the body (6, 7). Copper: 1,620% of the RDI. Copper acts like a key to activate a number of enzymes, which then help regulate energy production, iron metabolism and brain function (8). Choline: Liver provides all of the Adequate Intake (AI) for women and nearly all of it for men (AI is used because there is insufficient evidence to set an RDI). Choline is important for brain development and liver function (9, 10). #LCHF #intermittentfasting #ketogenicdiet #ifastloca

Guess what I just got! Been working with some friends on some #LCHF #Keto #lifestyle compliant snacks. Today I got the first sample! Composition varies depending on goal but it also satisfies your cravings #ifastloca
Ok so my 72 hr Fasting experiment finished. I did this by serendipity since I was not expecting to do a 3 day fast.
Personal Reason: Theories regarding longevity, DNA Repair, microbiome modification, metabolic flexibility.
For my Patients:
As a physician applying #intermittentfasting on patients is very helpful. This can improve #insulinresistance and it is how I have been reverting #diabetes in combination with #LCHF reaching episodes of #ketosis aka #ifastloca I use myself as an example to show them it can be done. Baby steps and guidance is key
#Fasting can be done in any particular diet but doing it in #ketosis is super easy. I started with a 16/8 hour window then increased to 18/6 then 24/4 eventually reaching OMAD one meal a day or 24 hr fast.
Could I have kept going yes. I felt great. Why didn't I ? I craved 🥓 haha Naa the real reason is that I need to be convinced that there are benefits from 3 days to 5 days for longevity purposes.
