Getting more energy will require a lifestyle change... if you don't have a strong enough reason why you want more energy, then what's likely to happen is that you'll make changes until you start to feel better...
Once you start feeling better, you are likely to go back to your old lifestyle and struggle again...
I myself was stuck in this cycle for the first seven years when I first started learning about optimizing my microbiome...
It was only when I was back to feeling tired all the time that I would start doing things for my health...
If you want lasting change, so that you can live an active lifestyle without having to depend on supplements then you need to have a strong reason why that pulls you towards a healthy lifestyle... your why will help you develop good habits so that you don't have to depend on will power or diets to feel good in your body and full of energy...

People who struggle with low energy and weight are usually told to cut out gluten, dairy, sugar or they live off caffeine...
You may have the false belief that salt is bad for you...
Or you may have heard that "breakfast is the most important meal of the day" not realizing that it was a marketing campaign by Dr Kellog's looking to sell Corn Flakes...
These false beliefs are the reason why people make mistakes with their diet and most don't even know it...
From their perspective, they feel like they've tried everything and nothing works... but in reality, they are doing good things with bad foods because they don't have the discernment to know what is good food...

One of the insights that changed the way I think of health was finding out yeast candida was the reason I would feel gassy, bloated, and constipated...
What made this so impactful was realizing that the first time I'd seen the word yeast candida was in beer brewing book.
This yeast strain was the same yeast strain that would spoil a batch of beer.
When I understood that piece, gut health made sense in a way that I can't even begin to describe... the probiotics and bad bacteria we find in brewing are the same we find in our gut. They respond to the same environmental factors.
This is when I started asking myself, "what do I do if I get a bad yeast strain when brewing and it spoils my batch of beer?"
The answer is that I have to dump out the bad batch so that I could clean and sanitize my brewing equipment...
That's when fasting made the most sense as a tool that I could use to empty out my body vessel so that I could clean and sanitize it...
In this podcast we talk about the different lessons I've learned about fasting, including how to use fasting as a tool to get more energy and lose weight.

It's not about being vegan, carnivore, keto, paleo or any other diet out there...

Once you get these 4 principles you'll be able to choose the best foods for your diet, regardless of what diet you decide to eat...

Your body recharges its batteries when it sleeps... that is if you are able to get deep, restorative sleep...
It's not about how many hours you sleep, it's about the quality of your sleep... if you have vivid, lucid dreams, then you will wake up feeling refreshed and full of energy...
If you don't get deep REM sleep, then you may toss and turn through out the night... when that happens, it doesn't matter if you sleep 4 hours or 10 hours, chances are you'll wake up feeling tired and with brain fog...
Many of the benefits of sleep happen only when you can improve your sleep... weight loss is one of those benefits and in this episode we go over how sleep helps you lose weight and how you can improve your sleep...

There was a point in my life when I simply could not figure out how to burn fat...
I wanted to get lean & toned so that I could take off my shirt in public and feel confident...
I didn't like the way I looked... nothing seemed to work and I was highly skeptical of anything out there that promised me it would help...
When it came to health, I was dependent on doctors to tell me what was wrong with me and how I could fix myself...
It wasn't until I developed gut issues and went to doctors that I found that I could not depend on them...
They were pretty much saying "there's nothing you can do about it, you're going to have to take hormones for the rest of your life"...
I could have accepted that as many people do... hearing this type of stuff is what makes people pessimistic, jaded and distrustful of others trying to help... I've been there...
... but something had to give...
I was not about to accept that as my faith...
That's when I started to look into my diet and doing things differently... That's when I started trying things that were different and unique...
I know that the way I approach diet is completely different than what most people do... and that's because I learned that growing probiotics was the key to getting more energy and losing weight...
If you want to experience more energy, better sleep and the ability to get lean & toned then the number one skill you have to learn is to grow healthy probiotics in your gut... You do that by learning how to optimize your microbiome... and we teach you how to do that in our energy & fat loss blueprint...
To make it even easier for you, we recorded this podcast where we talk about getting started with the Energy & Fat Loss Blueprint...

The key to lose weight is to detox your body...
You'll often hear me say that "you're not fat, you're toxic"... that's because toxins are harmful to your body. Your body protects itself from toxins by stuffing toxins into your fat cells...
The more toxic you are the bigger your fat cells get...
Detoxing is not a matter of taking herbs, doing cleanses or fasting...
You have to take into consideration other things that are specific to you...
Some people need alkaline cleansers...
Some people need acid cleansers...
Some people have to do specific cleanses for things like mold, heavy metals, parasites, wild yeast, etc.
The principles are the same, but the order in which you do things may have to change...
In this podcast we talk about a few different scenarios and practical tips that you can start with...

In this episode we share our experience on gaining weight during the holidays and why you shouldn't feel guilty about it...
Our food supply is so bad, it's nearly impossible to avoid "bad food" when visiting relatives...
Do we wish it were different and we didn't have to worry about eating bad food?
Yes...
That's why we put this Podcast together...
It's going to take a lot of education and awareness for us to turn this around...
The holidays is not the time to red pill relatives...
It's the time to love people for who they are and where they are on their journey...
Enjoy the holidays...
Merry Christmas from the Beer Diet Project crew...

Food is supposed to give you energy...
If you can't digest food, then you won't be able to produce energy...
Your body's ability to burn fat and lose weight depends on your ability to get more energy...
That's why improving digestion makes this easier...
If you don't improve your digestion then over time you are likely to grow bad bacteria in your gut, which will then make it harder for your body to digest food turning this into a vicious cycle...

Many people struggle to make sense of all the diets and weight loss strategies out there.
Count calories, go keto, eat this not that, more protein, less carbs, etc.
It's nauseating just to think about all the contradicting advice.
It is much much easier to get more energy and lose weight when you understand that what matters most is quality of food.
You can not out supplement a poor diet. The quality of food you eat makes all the difference between a good diet and a poor diet.
Knowing where your food comes from is the most important part of diet design.
If you buy your groceries at a convenience store, then the likelihood of it lacking nutrients is high.

People who struggle to lose weight seem to be the ones that are always on a diet, trying everything and anything...
Nothing seems to work for them...
Then there's others who don't try nearly as hard and yet they seem to get results almost effortlessly...

Rest gives you that time to clear your mind and improve what you are doing...
In this podcast we share different ways that we use rest and how that helps you lose weight, get more energy and more!

A clean body is a lean body. A lean body is a clean body.
The environment of your gut determines what type of gut flora you will cultivate and grow. If you gut is toxic, you will likely grow bad bacteria, wild yeast, mold, parasites and other unwanted stuff.
You cannot grow healthy probiotics in a toxic environment. That's why you'll want to learn how to detox your body.
Toxins are bad for your body which is why your body protects itself from toxins by stuffing toxins into your fat cells, which makes them expand.
When you detox, your body will have no need for body fat.
