In this final episode in the 5-part Keto Conversation series we are chatting ALL about carbs!! Are carbs the devil? Should we fear carbs? Can we never eat them again?
Au contraire – I actually want to share that you CAN actually eat carbs and they may work synergistically with your low glycemic approach to support some important functionality within the body, to reset and rebalance, as needed.
After you've given your body the time and space and taught it how to become fat adapted, it's in that nuanced lifestyle and your personalized approach that you create where the real magic happens, in my opinion.
- disclaimers on who should take care when carb cycling
