Episode #337 Test and NOT Guess for Bio-Individuality - a podcast by Debbie Potts

How to use Keto Mojo to train the Low Carb Athlete for improved fat loss, athletic performance and longevity– by Dorian, the founder of Keto Mojo.

The best way to use Keto-Mojo in conjunction with your training regime, depends on one’s specific objectives.

Are they performance, therapeutic, or health based?  

No matter the objective, it always comes back to bio-individuality.   See attached.

There are many different ways that exercise can influence our ketones, but it is all dependent on how fat adapted the person is, in other words, how efficiently they burn fat. 

When someone is very fat adapted, they are much more efficient at gluconeogenesis and restoring glycogen, so their body can actually create more glucose on demand when exercising. 

Therefore, glucose might run a bit higher in a fat adapted athlete.

How many carbs, protein and fat do you need per day? Try taking the METABOLIC TYPING DIET quiz or see Dr. Anna’s quiz here… for her keto calculator

That being said, unless they are an extreme endurance athlete, ketone levels often go down when an athlete works out. 

Some find that keeping fats lower after workouts, may help bring ketone levels back up. 

The bottom line is that it I important to track your results to see what affects you and how. 

You can only manage what you measure!!
