Default Hmmmmm. ( that's my brain working)

Wise words from the Master but slightly troubling nonetheless.

There has always been comfort in the low carb equation:

Carb reduction to level X = ketosis = weight loss

But if

"its likely that your metabolism will adapt at a certain point - in a sense developing a tolerance"

if we Yo Yo Atkins, I would love to know the bio - chemical reasons why.


What is the effect on the body from going from a glucose burning metabolism to fat burning to glucose burning and back again?

This is more of a rhetorical question aimed at the Dr. But if anyone does know the answer you know where to find me.
