Episode 3483:

Quotes to ponder:

"The bottom line is: calories count. You can lose weight by limiting carbs and/or fat."

"Eating “carbs” as part of a meal elicits a lower glycemic response than eating them solo. Protein and fat slow their conversion into blood glucose, thus blunting the glycemic response."

"You have to figure out your answer to the keto or veto question. For serious athletes who do intense exercise, take note: It is a lot of work with no proven performance benefits to date." Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
