Ivor Cummins and Dr. Jeffry Gerber are the authors of Eat Rich, Live Long, a book centered around how you can achieve optimal health and weight loss through low-carb and keto diets. Ivor is the owner of The Fat Emperor, a blog that details his thoughts and research about what makes a typical diet healthy and occasionally debunks myths about nutrition. Dr. Jeffry Gerber is a board-certified family physician and the owner of South Suburban Family Medicine, a clinic in Littleton, Colorado. He has been providing personalized healthcare since 1993 and is an advocate of adopting low-carb, high fat, Paleo, and Ancestral diets to treat or prevent common illnesses such as obesity, heart disease, and diabetes.
Ivor and Jeffry join us to share their wisdom regarding the many therapeutic benefits of low-carb and keto diets. They discuss what drove them to promote a low-carb lifestyle and what inspired them to co-author a book. They explain the different ways society and traditional medicine demonized fats in favor of industrially processed carbs, why insulin is one of the best health markers, and why healthy vegetable oils and healthy breads are anything but healthy. They also describe what happens to our body when we’re in ketosis and how we benefit from it.
“Being in ketosis is putting your body in a positive state biochemically.” - Ivor Cummins
