The presence of Ketones doesn’t mean that his
body is using fat instead of glucose. HIs liver was still
replete with glycogen from the previous day’s eating,
and it takes time for the body to adapt its cells (muscles,
organs etc.) to using fat as their primary energy source.
The human body loves using glucose and will always
choose glucose if it has the option. It’s very possible
that all of the ketones detected in this test were exclu-
sively from MCT oil, especially when you consider how
they dropped off so quickly. If, however, the MCT oil
actually tricked Matt into ketosis for those few hours,
he could have been burning through my body’s fat
stores as well. It’s a chicken or the egg scenario, but
we’re calling it plausible. might enter temporary nutritional ketosis. Once in

Long Answer: letproof Diet which, for the most part, steers the user
If you have an early dinner (pref-
erably low carb), fast for 12 hours (including sleep), away from carbohydrates. But if you follow common
exercise vigorously early in the morning to deplete ketogenic diet advice, there’s far too many carbs in
liver glycogen, drink a Bulletproof coffee, and then eat there (~10-20%) to maintain deep ketosis (~0-10%),
nothing else for a number of hours afterwards, you and you’d likely remain anabolic.
