Mark Sisson - The Keto Reset Diet

The Keto Reset Dietis going to help you reprogram your genes back to the original human factory setting of being fat- and keto-adapted(a term that appears throughout the booklets nickname it keto). Keto is a state of metabolic efficiencywhere you are able to burn stored energy in the form of body fat and ketones, and not be dependent upon regular high-carbohydrate meals to sustain your energy, mood, or cognitive focus. When you conduct the 21-Day Metabolic Reset and transition away from carbohydrate dependency, then go keto, you will normalize your appetite hormones so that you are almost never hungry. This happens very quickly, and its an absolutely stunning revelation. Its like discovering a hidden superpower that stabilizes your energy, mood, and brain function all day long, because you have readily available stored energy to burneven if you skip meals.

Youll enjoy delicious, nutrient-dense meals and snacks that are deeply satisfying in a way that a carb binge never will be. This means you never have to worry about adding excess body fat, blowing your diet and tail spinning, or falling victim in your later years to diet-related diseases. You become what I affectionately call a fat-burning beast, and youll stay this way for the rest of your life.

Im eager to share this journey to keto with you because my own journey to keto represents the culmination of a long career in the health and fitness world, and a long quest to discover the truth. While the truth is that personal preference and dietary flexibility will always trump any regimented dietary protocol, its also important to acknowledge that keto is the default human metabolic state, because it was the only way humans were able to survive the withering selection pressure of human evolution. I sincerely believe that The Keto Reset Dietjourney we are about to commence could represent the greatest breakthrough in the history of nutritional scienceand the history of dieting (finally!)to promote successful long-term fat loss and weight management.

My passion for nutrition, fitness, and healthy living dates back to my teenage years. Yes, I was one of those weird kids running to and from school, sometimes in snowstorms (Im known as a Malibu dude today, but I grew up in Maine), to prepare for high school distance running. I devoured nutrition texts instead of comic books. After college, I ditched plans of medical school to train for the U.S. Olympic team for the marathon. I ran over 100 miles a week for ten years, once placing fifth in the USA national championships.

After trashing all my joints from extreme running, I moved over to triathlons and took fourth at the famed Hawaii Ironman competition. I could perform great endurance feats and had a lean, toned physique, but on the inside I was in horrific shape.
