Here is a brain dump for you...
1. Every stress response is a blood sugar response. If the low carb-keto-primal keto-carnivore real food plan is not working for you then look for additional help by hiring a health detective to find out the WHY. Don't treat lab results, symptoms or diagnose. Learn about your H.I.D.D.E.N. internal stressors and sources of CHRONIC Stressors that are impacting the WHOLE you from the inside out- impacting your ability to BURN FAT, optimize MITOCHONDRIA function, and PERFORMANCE gains. What about your longevity?
2. "Women are not small men"- Dr. Stacy Sims
3. Oxidative stress damages mitochondria function:
4. We are all unique so what works for someone else may not work exactly the same for you
5. Lift heavy weights- train movement, stability, mobility, and strength! Activate the core - and little tricks you can implement into your day! Tri-pod feet, suspenders from lower ribs to hip bones, sit bones back and posture check. Move from the core. Swim - connect for with the core.
6. Disconnect to connect with others. Are we going to lose the ability to communicate in person? Just as dating someone online via text email!
7. Happiness, play and gratitude...start your day off by saying "hello" or "good morning" to each person you see (5/10 rule).
8. Pay attention to your RED FLAGS. Try looking up your Metabolic Type on www.mtdiet.com and DNAFit.

"Simply put, the human body is designed to perform optimally using “fat as your fuel” for aerobic performance. This is why humans carry large stores of fat and very limited stores of glycogen. Look in the mirror and you will see…. .why not optimize utilization of “fat as fuel”? Even the leanest athlete carries more than enough “on-board” fat calories to run a 100 miles, cycle a double century or complete an Ironman. Think of it this way; fat is your aerobic energy source and glycogen/glucose is your “fight or flight” fuel. So, unless your event is the 100 meter dash or Olympic powerlifting, focusing on optimizing fat metabolism via OFM needs to be a fundamental part of your program."
