There is also a direct correlation between the Big Mac in your hand and the mile-wide river now running across the North Pole.

Realizing that everything - from government policies to corporate capitalism - directly impacts our relationship with food and our waistlines, Chloé changed her outlook on herself and hopes others will do the same for themselves.

“Eat less, move more” is incomplete. You can lose weight eating more. How? Through a process known as diet-induced thermogenesis. Diet-induced thermogenesis, the calories burned digesting and absorbing the food you eat, has a greater impact on “calories-out” than exercise. But when you restrict your caloric intake, you restrict diet-induced thermogenesis. Thus, the principle of weight loss is not consuming a very small number of calories - especially when “calories-in” increases “calories-out”.

Have you tried going keto and found that it has made you feel worse rather than better? Does keto seem to make sense in theory yet somehow fails to work as promised? But what if it's not just you?
