I actually love that Jillian went the route of cellular health in her objection to the ketogenic diet.
Keto Supplement Scams: What to Watch Out For
Apr 03, 2020
In summer 2019, keto fat burner pills that claimed to be featured on Shark Tank popped up all over the internet.
It was a scam.
They were never on Shark Tank.
They were never in major news outlets like Women’s Health or Shape like they claim.
The transformation photos aren’t humanly possible in the time frame they’re claiming.
The celebrity transformations and quotes about their products are fabricated.
They have a ton of names, including: Keto Melt, Ultra Fast Keto Boost, Keto Ultra, NutriFlair, PureFit Keto, Keto Rapid Max Pure, Keto RX, Ultra Apex Keto and more, and they’re still available all over the internet.
They don’t tell you what is actually in the pills.
Some advertise 800 mg of BHB (beta-hydroxybutyrate or ketones). 800mg of BHB isn’t even close enough to see a rise in blood ketone levels. That is less than 1g of BHB.You need about 11-12g of BHB in order to see a rise in blood ketone levels.
They are an absolute junk product. And...
Three New Years Resolutions You Can Stick to and Get Massive Results

Here are my top 3 big hitters on how to completely change your body and your life in 2020!
These simple, actionable steps will change the game:
1. Intermittent Fasting
Why is it so effective?
Mentally: It lays out clear parameters so you eliminate the “should I or shouldn’t I?” mental back and forth that will derail your nutrition goals eventually. You make the rule once, kick decision fatigue to the curb, and adapt to an extremely maintainable lifestyle. Soon it becomes second nature.
Physically: It allows your body the time it needs to use up the energy from the food you’ve given it and tap into your fat stores. This has powerful, positive long-term effects on blood sugar management, one of the biggest players in maintaining a healthy body weight. I recommend a 16:8 Intermittent Fasting window, meaning you eat within an eight-hour window each day and don’t eat the other 16.
2. Exercise Every Day
Sound like a lot to take on? Here’s why...
My Response to Jillian Michaels on Keto
May 17, 2019
Because cellular health is actually one of the main benefits of keto.
Jillian says, "Your cells, your macromolecules, are literally made up of protein, fat, carbohydrates, nucleic acids. When you do not eat one of those macronutrients, you're STARVING your cells."
Are you??
Let’s take a look at some science before we get our nutrition advice from a trainer who basically broke people’s metabolisms on The Biggest Loser.
Here are 3 reasons keto is amazing for your cells:
1. Keto enhances mitochondrial health.
Listen, I'm going to tell you why your cells aren't "starving" on keto in just a minute, but at the risk of you navigating away from this post, I'm putting this first. You need to know this.
Mitochondrial health is why I think everyone should go through a phase of the ketogenic...
Why I Think You Should Do Keto. But Not Forever.
May 13, 2019
If you've never done keto, I 100% think you should do it. Give it 2 months of solid commitment.
Why?
1. To teach your body how to easily tap into its own fat stores and USE that fat as fuel (um, yay!).
2. To see what your brain feels like on ketones.
3. To learn just how much anxiety all that sugar is creating.
4. To create a LASTING enhancement of your metabolism, even when you aren't keto anymore.
We are the first generation coming out of a decades-long brainwashed society that believed fat was bad for us. Every single one of us grew up being made to believe "Reduced Fat" or "Fat Free" on a box of cookies meant they were "healthier cookies." Ugh.
And what happens when you do that? You lose...
