In this episode of BioTrust Radio, Shawn, “the keto guy,” and Tim tackle several great keto questions submitted by members of our VIP Community. They’ll dive deep into each of the topics and provide evidence-based, action-oriented responses to help set the record straight and help you move forward on your path to optimal living.

Here are the questions that are covered in this fast-paced, information-packed podcast:

• How can I incorporate the keto diet so my blood sugar does not drop to low? Do I need to eat six small meals a day?
• How important is it to supplement with potassium and sodium when on the keto diet? I notice myself getting headaches often and I am wondering if it is due to mineral deficiencies. Also, how much water is too much water?
• What’s the difference between a ketogenic diet and a low-carb diet?
• What are your thoughts on carb cycling? Can you combine Intermittent Fasting (IF) and Keto? What are your thoughts on One Meal A Day (OMAD)?
• There was a recent study indicating that long term low-carb diets can decrease your life up to 4 years. Many of us trying to lose weight with the BioTrust Low Carb Protein Powder have been taking a very low-carb approach. Are we putting ourselves at risk? Can you respond to the findings of the study?

We’ll cover these burning keto questions and more! Enjoy!
