About this listen
From the author of the New York Times bestselling Plant Paradox series comes this revolutionary take on the keto diet that debunks common myths and shows listeners how to reap the rewards of keto with less restriction
Like many doctors and nutrition experts, bestselling author Dr. Steven Gundry has long endorsed the ketogenic diet—a style of eating that heavily restricts carbohydrate intake to make the body burn fat for fuel. Because ketosis offers a variety of health benefits, including weight loss, reduced risk of illness, and enhanced energy, Dr. Gundry believed his patients’ efforts to adhere to the challenging regimen was worthwhile. That is, until his research uncovered a shocking truth: We’ve gotten keto all wrong.
In Unlocking the Keto Code, Dr. Gundry reveals the biological mechanism that makes keto diets so successful: a cellular process known as “mitochondrial uncoupling.” As it turns out, ketones are not the magical fuel source they’ve been made out to be; in fact, the body cannot run on ketones and fats alone. Over the long term, a very low carb-diet can lead to muscle wasting and poor cognitive health.
Luckily, you don’t have to restrict all carbs to reap the benefits of ketosis; you simply have to have enough ketones and other plant compounds called polyphenols present in your body to “unlock” the process of mitochondrial uncoupling. In this insightful, empowering, eminently practical book. Dr. Gundry explains the many ways listeners can ignite this process, from feasting on plant-based foods (carbs that are typically off-limits on a keto diet!) to enjoying ketone generating foods such as goat and sheep milk products, to implementing a timed eating schedule. You will even discover the real reason how superfoods, even apple cider vinegar, work their magic; and its not what they you think!
Grounded in cutting-edge science, this is the book for all the people who have tried and failed on a keto diet; for vegetarians and vegans who want to go keto; and for anyone who wants to lose weight and enjoy better health while eating a wide variety of foods. With food lists, hacks, and all-new recipes, Unlocking the Keto Code makes going keto easy and enjoyable for the first time.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Unlocking The Keto Code The science of happy mitochondria
I really enjoyed this. While heavy on the science which personally I really like, Dr Gundry shows a clear why and very practical how to improve your health and not be caught up by the fad diets and misinformation out there.

Fascinating Listen
OK loads to digest (!) here. Gundry’s entertaining style makes the science easy to get. Only negative is that he debunks a lot of his own prior beliefs. How long will it be that what he says here is swapped out for his next book? Nevertheless, really worth listening to if you are all about ketosis.

PRETTY GOOD BOOK
I think he hits about 90-95% of the info on the head in great relative terms us non doctors lol.
But leaves a lot of unanswered questions.
Can you start your eating window early as soon as you wake up and finish early in the 6-8 hour period?
Athletes having Beta Alanine, Acetyl-L-carnitine before a training session how does this affect it. Training on empty usually hinder athletic performance and effort
Limiting protein and animal protein not convinced at all. Maybe for weight loss but definitely not for performance or muscle retention and strength.
At the end of the day great book and insight into the gut, we’ll put together and perfect for the masses starting there journey
4 stars all the way leaving room for improvement only

Gave up
I gave up on this after listening to several chapters. The book is overly dense with lengthy explanations of biological and chemical processes which I feel that I didn’t need to know. The key dietary and lifestyle advice is provided in a short section, before the science begins again and I had to stop listening. The book is read in a strangely annoying style, with emphasis placed on random words which interrupts the flow. I’m sure this book is full of great information, but it takes considerable concentration to take it in, and I’m not sure the average listener will last the distance.
