Welcome to Low Carb Conversations with Leah Williamson and Holly Jean Barrett, Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioners. Our Guest today is is Ben Azadi from Keto Kamp. Ben is a long-time Keto advocate and Educator, Podcaster, Youtuber and the Author of four best-selling books, The Perfect Health Booklet, The Intermittent Fasting Cheat Sheet, The Power of Sleep, and his latest book Keto Flex: 4 secrets to reduce inflammation, burn fat & reboot your metabolism. Ben walks us through his four pillars of successful keto – adapt, fast, phasing, and flex which is a balanced and effective approach for starting and maintaining a keto lifestyle. We then have an in-depth discussion dispelling some myths about fasting and ketosis. Ben explains how fasting is like a muscle that you have to work into and as you get stronger (fat adapted and metabolically flexible), the easier it is to fast.
