You heard right, fat burning…PLUS more energy, mental clarity, less cravings and better focus. I have a total squirrel mind and can easily be distracted, which isn’t always helpful for an entrepreneur. So when my colleague introduced me to my new SUPER POWERED ingredient to help curb my distracted mind AND help me with my training goals I was so excited to try it. The key ingredient is Exogenous Ketones in a powder form and it has been a total game-changer for me, so I figured I had to share it with you too!

This is where the real fat burning and enhanced life force happens. Ketones are essentially an alternative fuel source for the body (vs. glucose) that leaves you feeling energized and focused. Most of us are sugar burners (mainly because we eat too much sugar), whereas taking exogenous ketones helps you become more efficient at being a fat burner vs. a sugar burner.

When you take exogenous ketones, you now have ketones available in your blood, which means you have fat available as a fuel source vs. glucose (ie. sugar!).

So what the heck is a ketone you ask?

When eating a low carbohydrate diet, the liver converts fatty acids to ketones, which serve as an alternative to glucose for energy for the brain, heart and muscle. Cool right?

Ketogenic diets were developed to help improve symptoms of epilepsy, but were also found to help with many other chronic health problems, like inflammation and alzheimers. Weight loss is a huge benefit of ketogenic diets due to lowered insulin levels and the body’s ability to burn stored fat. This is why my clients do incredibly well losing weight while on my new and improved Simplicity Slim program. It is not a ketogenic diet, but it is a lower carb diet, helping my clients to become more efficient at controlling their insulin levels, inflammation and burning fat. Research is even showing that a ketogenic diet can help prevent and even kill cancer cells.

So let’s get to this delicious, fat burning, energizing SMOOTHIE! I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
