 Whether you're just starting out or you're a seasoned veteran and whether you're in the paleo keto low-carb Carnivore whatever you want to call it camp. There's one simple thing that you should never ever ever forget Hey there njrude22.com here with a low carb chat Channel zone whatever we're in. I just I think it's extremely important because in today's Day and age there's so many different diet camps out there You know you got your low-carb people which you know generally cover everything get your keto You know they have one way of eating in the paleo paleo is very restrictive They have you can't eat this you can't eat that you can't eat this and then there's the carnivore People that say you can only eat this Put all that to the side for a minute the number one thing that you Should follow and if you do you're gonna find success is never eat sugar. Okay. No, that's cardinal sin number one That's 80% of your health. I'm guessing here I'm just picking a random number, but 80% sounds good 80% is restricting as much as possible sugar and carbs and for the purpose of this video carbs and sugar are Synonymous. Yes, there's different kinds of carbs some are digested differently. Don't worry about that just don't eat carbs period and The eating only meat for instance is going to do a lot of favors for you that number one rule is pointless if you eat If you don't eat enough fat or if you eat too much protein for instance fat is very satiating That's why I like getting 73% ground beef and it's just you eat a little bit of it You don't even have to just eat until you're full You don't shovel food in your mouth your body works differently when you don't eat blood raising sugar blood sugar raising sugar and carbs And the same goes with protein and unless you are a one of these performance athletes where your muscle is Absolutely important and you need to build fast too much protein. This is how we understand you can correct me if I'm wrong I don't think I'm wrong Too much protein at the end of the day gets converted into glucose or sugar and turns into fat So if you if you eat nothing, but lean chicken breasts all day long and not enough fat You're not really eating carbs, but at the end of the day you will gain weight too much protein is not good Stop with the protein shakes. I see all these overweight people really overweight They're getting these protein shakes and it basically just kills their entire effort and they stay unhealthy and obese for a long time So if you just avoid sugar eat high-fat and that's that's that's the one diet high-fat low-carb Moderate protein and I would even say low protein for people that Aren't in the fitness or doing any kind of working out whatsoever And that's what we plan on doing. I'm gonna do another video on this in the in the future About how I'm gonna wait until I meet my weight goals Entirely through diet and once I'm at, you know, whatever 185 or whatever weight I'm looking to get down to then I will begin focusing You know once I've mastered the diet Entirely and I could see the fluctuations and the results of my efforts or changes that I make Then we go to the gym and focus on that we we've cracked the code on the diet, but My point of this is and there's another point that If you focus on the basics get the basics Handle and that again is low sugar very low sugar or no sugar at all. Don't ever add sweetener That's another story for another day Don't even put sweets in your mouth because sweets do something to your body's chemistry and your mental Ability don't even eat anything sweet Even blueberries tastes sweet to me, but a lot of people focus on the minutia the small stuff whether they're getting organic beef or Pesticides or sulfites You can handle that stuff later on that doesn't even represent five percent of your problem People get hung up on these emotional details. They're very restrictive. Don't do this. Don't do that They're nitpicking if you don't eat in other words, don't raise your blood sugar Don't do it do not raise your blood sugar because that's where all the problems happen with leptin and and insulin and the cravings your your body becomes like almost Like a like a monster like if you I remember like Many years ago when I had some sort of bad moment and I I became weak and I ate like a a white Flower based Italian hoagie. I'm one of those nice rolls and god it was I remember the the sensation It was it was delicious, but I felt like crap for two to three days Afterward and it screwed everything up. I was it probably sent me back two weeks overall So don't don't raise your blood sugar. There's no reason the small stuff You can become a nitpicker and an anal retentive obsessive compulsive person Once you you've gotten comfortable with just not raising your blood sugar It's that simple and that applies to every single diet or not even diet But if you if you intend to lose body fat weight loss We don't want to lose bone and bone density and and muscle mass, but if you want to lose Body fat Just don't eat sugar and don't raise raise your blood sugar level And then you've gotten it you got it all covered and the rest of it doesn't really matter We don't really care about whether it's organic or not the taste matters to us a lot of times I can tell the difference between some plain old beef You know even though it's it's good for me and it satiates me and a pet la Frida hamburger for instance It's delicious. It's it's it's a treat But again eating is is is not entertainment. It shouldn't be entertainment It became entertainment in our in our in our country and in our world And they're just not very long ago eating used to just be like a fundamental Basic need you got it over with now It's all about fancy tablecloths and and presentation and pairings and all this other BS and Instagram photos of your food If I did an Instagram channel on my food It would be one picture every day the same picture everything meat or maybe I would have three pictures meat eggs and cheese and dairy So that's it. Just don't worry about don't sweat the small stuff and just don't put the sugar Don't raise your blood sugar on purpose and and give it to those salads that they're inflammatory Once you kick the salads out, I mean I could talk forever about this about how you can get almost all your nutrition from red meat alone And then you don't think about food you focus on more important things so that's it I rambled here, but Don't sweat the small stuff. Okay. Just keep your blood sugar stable and low at all times and you will be a Okay, have a nice week
