Pursuit of Wellness
Toxins Exposed: The Ultimate Expert Mashup

This is all from the Bulletproof Diet.

Pursuit of Wellness
Toxins Exposed: The Ultimate Expert Mashup

Do keto for short periods of time, come out of it.

Pursuit of Wellness
Toxins Exposed: The Ultimate Expert Mashup

And when you're doing keto, protein quality and fat quality matter, right?

Pursuit of Wellness
Toxins Exposed: The Ultimate Expert Mashup

So the whole clean keto thing, first book on that.

Pursuit of Wellness
Toxins Exposed: The Ultimate Expert Mashup

And that's still what I do.

Pursuit of Wellness
Toxins Exposed: The Ultimate Expert Mashup

No, use keto as a scalpel.

Toxins Exposed: The Ultimate Expert Mashup

And I'm 6% body fat.

Pursuit of Wellness
Toxins Exposed: The Ultimate Expert Mashup

What the hell business do I have being keto, right?

Pursuit of Wellness
Toxins Exposed: The Ultimate Expert Mashup

I don't want to get any leaner.

Pursuit of Wellness
Toxins Exposed: The Ultimate Expert Mashup

I'll go in ketosis if I want to deal with a certain issue or I want to lose a little bit of weight, which isn't an issue.

Toxins Exposed: The Ultimate Expert Mashup

On a typical day when I'm not fasting, I will eat 200 grams of animal protein.

Pursuit of Wellness
Toxins Exposed: The Ultimate Expert Mashup

And I do that because funny enough, I weigh 200 pounds.

Toxins Exposed: The Ultimate Expert Mashup

And that equation works.

Pursuit of Wellness
Toxins Exposed: The Ultimate Expert Mashup

In my longevity book, I went through all the research saying you might want 0.6 grams of protein per pound of body weight.

Pursuit of Wellness
Toxins Exposed: The Ultimate Expert Mashup

And they say, but as you get old, you should go up to 0.8 because you start losing muscle.

Pursuit of Wellness
Toxins Exposed: The Ultimate Expert Mashup

But when I go to 0.6, I start losing muscle and I don't feel good.

Pursuit of Wellness
Toxins Exposed: The Ultimate Expert Mashup

So maybe some people do all right on that, but I think between 0.8 and one gram of protein per pound of body weight is good, except even saying that is nonsense because have you ever heard of sarin nerve gas?

Pursuit of Wellness
Toxins Exposed: The Ultimate Expert Mashup

So back in some of the very early terrorist attacks in populated cities in Japan, some terrorists made sarin nerve gas and put it on a subway.

Pursuit of Wellness

Serin comes from beans.

Toxins Exposed: The Ultimate Expert Mashup

It's a plant-based protein.
