NUTRITIONAL REQUIREMENTS FOR PEOPLE IN SERVICE

  • Acute vs chronically sustained ketosis
  • In the beginning there is decreased performance in physical and mental ability
  • Body needs time to adapt to running off of a different fuel source
  • Fat rather than glucose

MCT (MEDIUM CHAIN TRIGLYCERIDES)

  • Easily digested fat found in coconut oil, as well as a variety of other products, and is a very healthy fat…
  • It provides instant and sustained energy
  • Versatile and easy to incorporate into food
  • Use to make salad dressing, whey protein shakes

DIABETIC OR ALCOHOLIC KETOACIDOSIS VS NUTRITIONAL KETOSIS

  • Doctors not taught about Nutrition Science in school
  • Ketones are a bad word…considered metabolic poison
  • People who adapt ketogenic lifestyle and get bloodwork at doctor’s office
  • Seen as a red flag…told to get off diet as fast as possible because they are in a dangerous metabolic state
  • Of course, this is not true
