But it is a great time to experiment with that and to institute that kind of a habit.” (17:28) “The ketogenic diet, I basically use it as a tool to achieve metabolic flexibility. And then I don’t need to be in ketosis, I don’t need to be doing this radical diet that I have to adhere to, especially if I am eating in a compressed eating window.” (23:38) Resources Mentioned: Mark’s Daily Apple Primal Kitchen The Keto Reset Diet by Mark Sisson Keto For Life by Mark Sisson The Primal Blueprint by Mark Sisson Join the 14-Day Hormone Detox Here   Other Resources: Check out the full show notes page Keep up with everything Dr. Mariza Follow Dr. Mariza on Facebook | Instagram | Twitter | Youtube
