How Ketosis Actually Works: Dr. Berg Explains Your Body's Fat-Burning Switch

Your doctor probably told you to "eat less, move more" for weight loss. What if that advice is actually making it harder to burn fat? In this episode, Sarah Williams breaks down the real science behind ketosis with Dr. Berg, revealing why your body might be fighting against traditional diet advice.

🎯 What You'll Learn:

• Why your brain actually runs 25% more efficiently on ketones than glucose

• How insulin blocks fat burning for up to 12 hours after eating carbs (even "healthy" ones)

👤 Perfect for: anyone who's tried multiple diets but still struggles with energy crashes, cravings, or stubborn weight that won't budge despite "doing everything right."
