hey guys listen we’re going to talk

about the key foods on a ketogenic diet

okay and those relate to key nutrients

that you would need to consume now let’s

start with vitamin C why do you invite

him in see on a ketogenic diet because

we want to repair all the damage from

the high levels of sugar and high levels

of insulin which by the way had to do

with the vision and the arteries and the

kidney and the nervous system vitamin C

is necessary for that it’s also

necessary to heal insulin resistance now

a lot of vitamin C is in the vegetables

but people think that they’re going to

consume lemon juice from a bottle and

pour it in the water and get all the

vitamin C but that’s not true because

all the vitamin C that you buy on the

shelf is all pasteurized it’s cooked

it’s heated so you don’t have any more

vitamin C left so if you’re taking an

actual lemon and juicing that you’re

getting some vitamin C but not from the

bottle now the advantage of consuming

lemon juice would be to counteract some

of the stones that could be developing

on a ketogenic plan but not necessarily

vitamin C okay bell peppers are loaded

with vitamin C especially the green bell

pepper okay all the peppers have a good

amount about even saying that bell

pepper is pretty darn high so that would

be a really good thing to consume

sauerkraut is another food that’s real

loaded with vitamin C so every day if

you had just a half a cup that would

give you way more than you would need

okay but some people don’t like

sauerkraut so go with the bell peppers

omega-3 fatty acids salmon make sure

it’s wild-caught and fatty fish okay

loaded with omega-3 we want to make sure

this is very very high okay then we have

vitamin b1 and also other B vitamins but

b1 is the most important this is really

important because the need for B vitamin

goes up when you get into ketosis so

sunflower seeds are have a good amount

of b1 and they have other B vitamins as

well believe it or not pork has a good

amount of b1 some people don’t like pork

that’s fine I have the high quality

non-processed no sugar bacon so I

consume that some people don’t like it

that’s fine you don’t have to do that

nutritional yeast is another

that’s loaded with the b-vitamins okay

then we get to potassium magnesium these

are really important on a ketogenic diet

the way you get that is large quantities

of vegetable seven to ten cups a lot of

people don’t like consuming their

vegetables you’re gonna have to bite the

bullet and do that potassium is

necessary to heal insulin resistance and

it’s involved in a lot of other things

magnesium is also at the heart of

insulin resistance as well as it’s

actually in chlorophyll so anything

green like leafy greens and avocados and

dark leafy green vegetables you’re gonna

get enough potassium so green vegetables

avocados beet tops have the most

potassium of anything I think it’s per

cup it’s like 13 hundred milligrams it’s

off the charts and then avocados are

also loaded with it as well so we need

large quantities of these vegetables to

get the nutrients okay and then we have

iodine so this is another trace mineral

that’s actually hard to get unless

you’re consuming seafood unless you’re

doing sea kelp an iodine is really

important for females with glandular

tissue with uterus with thyroid with the

balance estrogen very very important

okay and then we have iron red meat okay

or organ meat very important in

fortifying your blood so you can have

endurance okay then we have

phytonutrients what are phytonutrients

it’s those plant-based chemicals that

give you additional health benefits that

go way beyond just vitamins and minerals

and trace minerals and amino acids and

fatty acids so if either nutrients are

anti-cancer anti astringent so they’re

really good to clean the body and

protect yourselves against all sorts of

damage from the environment and to get

these you would want to consume sprouts

sprouts certain sprouts like broccoli

sprouts have about 50 times more thought

of nutrients and even just regular adult

vegetables so the combination of

vegetables and sprouts you’re going to

be totally fine but we wanted to include

that just to you know as part of your

health creating eating plan alright
