Our Standard American Diet keeps glucose high, creates insulin resistance and so much systemic inflammation. All of this is a recipe for mental health dysfunction. FAT is good for your brain CHOLESTEROL is good for your brain KETONES are amazing for your brain (clean fuel) Part of it is about removing the source of the dysfunction, the other part is about adding NOURISHMENT into your body and specifically your brain! Lisa Parker, FNP, is a metabolic specialist and in this episode she dives in to this topic. We touch on how some of this can drive eating disorders, how medications can make this blood sugar/insulin problem worse and how we have kids on this cycle of crappy food, medications and mental health issues with them are through the roof.

I’m hearing a lot of health and fitness people on social media say things like “you shouldn’t remove an entire food group from your diet” or “low carb/keto is way too restrictive”. I get it, I used to say the same things. But when it comes to “food freedom”, sometimes you need to trade through in for “health freedom”. Let’s dive into this together!

There are two different ways to define “keto foods”. Let’s define those and strategize about how to have a smart approach to this that helps you actually reach your goals and feel AMAZING!! Find me here: www.thatvibrantlife.com FB/thatvibrantlife IG/that_vibrantlife

There are some very common things I see people doing with keto (I’m raising my hand here because I am not immune to these mistakes) that really trip them up and hold them back from reaching goals! It might surprise you that sometimes adhering too much to certain “keto rules” can be part of these mistakes! Join my 8 week virtual Keto for Woman group that starts MONDAY, June 6th!! Details and signup here: https://healthwithjessacademy.teachable.com/p/ketoforwomen-virtualprogram   Find me here: www.thatvibrantlife.com FB/thatvibrantlife IG/that_vibrantlife

There are many approaches to the ketogenic diet and yours should depend on your goals! A higher fat protocol works well for some and can be quite therapeutic if there are any neurological or neurodegenerative issues one is trying to combat. If losing weight is your focus, you might want to zero in on the protein. Listen in for the “why” behind this and some of the things you should consider when it comes to protein! My next KETO FOR WOMEN group starts June 6th! Find out more here: https://healthwithjessacademy.teachab... Find me at www.thatvibrantlife.com IG: that_vibrantlife FB: thatvibrantlife

Let’s talk about some big reasons that validate making your own health decisions! We are used to this protocol: “identify a problem, diagnose, prescribe”! There’ is such a better approach and I believe we have the right to choose how we address our own health issues!   Listen in! I have some things to kind of "chew on" when it comes to why this should really be the case for people. WHY we should weigh our options and perhaps even look at our health differently! I am a firm believer in being our own advocates! Find me here:www.thatvibrantlife.com FB/thatvibrantlife IG/that_vibrantlife
