Top 5 WORST Things About The Keto Diet

Now if you haven’t been on the channel this week, then you’ve been missing out on my keto take over week...

When you sign up, I am going to email you a free digital copy of my pizza lovers cookbook so that you can see for yourself just how incredible satisfying the keto lifestyle truly is...

Today is the final chance for you guys to have a shot at being the first to get the KETOX program and not have to pay a single penny for it… so go ahead and head to my website for your final chance to win the program free because tonight at midnight the early enrollment will close.

Here are the Top 5 worst things when it comes to a keto diet:

#1 - Eating The Wrong, Unhealthy Fats

While the upside of this plan is the increased fat intake, the downside is that many people actually end up eating a lot of highly saturated animal fats or dairy-based fat, like cheese.

This fact alone gives keto a bad rep - because if you’re only eating the low quality, toxin-filled, processed fat sources, it’ll be extremely difficult to reach the most optimal state of health. I say everything in moderation.

Bottom line: if you’re using a lot of animal-based foods for fats and proteins, try to make them organic and well-sourced whenever possible OR buy extremely lean cuts of meat that don’t have a lot of fat so that way you can add fats from avocado or coconut oil - you’ll have more control over getting the most high-quality fats this way.

#2 - The "Keto Flu"

Most people who’ve tried conventional keto diets know that the first few days can be a little rough. As the body is transitioning into burning fat for fuel instead of carbs, there are common side effects including fatigue, dizziness, lightheadedness, and poor sleep, all resulting from an extreme restriction of carbohydrates... While these symptoms usually subside after the body adjusts to relying on fat for fuel, it can take anywhere from a few days to a week

#3 - Constipation

Though this diet can be high in heart-healthy fats (depending on the ones you choose), it's often low in fiber. This is because most keto diets deemphasize eating fruits and vegetables due to their carb content, however, this means you are not getting the necessary intake of fiber to keep you regular.

#4 - Micronutrient Deficiencies

This ties right back into the fact that conventional keto diets shy away from including plant-based foods that are rich in micronutrients as part of the diet plan… This to me is the biggest flaw with most keto diets I see! Without micronutrients, sure - we can lose weight, but I promise you, you won’t be at optimal health.

#5 - Impossible To Stick To Keto For The Long-term

It can be quite difficult to follow. It’s really difficult, even for an expert like me to live my life and follow a plan that's 70 to 80 percent fat, 10 percent carb, and 15 percent protein, as every single meal (for the most part) has to be planned and calculated. For most people this will be the hardest part…

But that’s why I’ve tailored my KETOX course to teach you how to use carbs to your advantage after you’ve become fat adapted so that way you can sustain the results you get from a keto diet and still integrate carbs into your lifestyle.

Now, at midnight I am going to be closing the early enrollment for KETOX - that means that at midnight, your chance to be chosen as one of the 100 lucky viewers to get the complete ketox course for free will be over… I’m going to close the enrollment and select the 100 winners and contact those lucky viewers to let them know they’ve been selected - so be sure to keep your email alerts on!
I’ll see you guys tomorrow!

Is coconut ok with a keto diet? I notice I always hear coconut oil in your videos. But never manage to clarify whether actual coconut is ok. :)

I can assure you that pretty much all of these negative effects are in the transitional period and are reduced the more times your body is used to transitioning.

Make sure you have plenty (and I mean plenty) of pink salt with lemon water while fasting.
Fatty red meats aren't sustainable, you will hit a wall a few weeks in where your omegas are out of wack.
Low intensity exercise will help you through the transitional period, and personally I have found that THC 😉 helps throughout the transition and lowers the spike in insulin before breaking a fast.
