Mastering Hunger & Conquering Emotional Overeating

Let’s face it. If you want to lose weight, you’re going to have to eat less. Yes… yes… You don’t want to. You enjoy eating. Do you really have to cut down your calorie intake? YES? The problem society faces these days is that people eat too much. They eat when they’re happy. They eat when they’re sad. They eat when they’re hungry and they eat when they’re not hungry… out of fear that they might get hungry later.

Myths about Keto diet

One of the most common misconceptions about the keto diet is that ketosis is the same as ketoacidosis. Ketosis, of course, is the metabolic process your body goes through when it burns fat for energy. On a standard diet, your body burns sugar for energy. This means when you eat carbohydrates, your body processes those calories into energy. Ketosis is the foundation for the keto diet. Unfortunately, a lot of people confuse ketosis with ketoacidosis. The former is safe. The latter is deadly. Obviously, they are not one and the same. Ketoacidosis is a condition where your body builds up too many ketone acids, which is the byproduct of breaking down fat. When your body builds up too much ketones, you can die. The good news is, for most people, ketoacidosis is not a risk at all. This condition really only becomes a risk if your body does not produce any insulin whatsoever. Put simply, it mostly affects people who have type I diabetes. If you're like most people who are thinking of t
