sorry to have to tell you guys but perfect keto macros do not guarantee that you'll be
healthy that you're going to lose weight because unfortunately that's just not the way that the
that mental health and physical health coming together is what creates that overall sense of
well-being if you find these kind of videos helpful please subscribe i make new videos
every week it's analogy time and i want to put an idea in front of you that i feel is going
to help you to understand why perfect macros just don't cut it when it comes to creating
a healthy body so let's jump in imagine for a moment that you were creating a channel
and so a youtube channel and you wanted to have the most possible people watching your videos so
you're going to create a beautiful thumbnail and you're going to create a beautiful title so you
make the video you title it you label it you put the video up and then you launch it you're waiting
the video does not show up in search why is that happening why do i have a perfect title perfect
thumbnail but my video is not showing up in search very likely it's because the actual video
the content of the video isn't good and we need to understand that it doesn't matter how great
you optimize the title and the thumbnail if the internals of the actual video is no good
now let's talk about food when we spend too much time trying to get those perfect macros 25 protein
5 percent carb 70 fat and we're doing everything in our power to make sure that those percentages
work out we're missing the point you see if i'm doing all of that while i'm eating highly
processed foods i'm still giving my body poor building blocks on which to build me
and those poor building blocks are going to build a poor quality violet now the other issue that
i want you to think about is those percentages even if i do them perfectly if i'm getting five
percent of my calories from carb and i've eaten 1500 calories today then my carb count is going
to be at 18.75 grams for the whole day however if i've eaten 4 000 calories today and i my five
percent is going to be 50 grams of carbs in that case where at that moment i'm over my carb count
we have to be careful even if you eat 2 000 calories in a day with perfect macros
five percent of that is still 25 grams of carbs you'll notice that perfect macros isn't the goal
yes i encourage everybody to focus on the amount of carbohydrate that you're eating
i encourage you to focus on that because that's the only macro that actually matters
specifically hitting a number under the other macros are important don't get me wrong
how much fat you're eating how much protein you're eating it's important in a different kind of way
keeping my amount of carbohydrate low is important because i'm trying my best not to poison myself
keeping my protein number where it should be so at a level that gives me enough protein
so that i can build my body appropriately is important because our body when we're healthy
is constantly building and repairing building and repairing because that's what our body does
to stay healthy well into the future and the fat amount that i'm eating that's important because
in order for my body to lose weight then my body needs to be pulling fat from me
that means eating extra fat isn't helping me but when i'm trying to maintain
of course then i want to eat enough fat that my body does not continue to pull fat from me
but not so much that my body begins to store the fat that i'm eating so are these other macros
important yes and no see the fat and protein macro when we eat the satiation so eat until we are no
longer hungry not to fullness until no longer hungry it becomes self-regulating because if i
stop eating when i'm not hungry anymore then i'm not going to overeat my fat and protein and if you
do find yourself overeating your fat and protein is probably because you're eating way too fast
i do encourage you to slow down your eating to allow your mind and your body to get in sync so
that you can learn to regulate your eating through satiation rather than a number on an app so going
back to my analogy if i had only made that one video great thumbnail great title internals
and i'm trying to rank i'm not gonna rank but if i made 30 videos and i had a great title
great thumbnail and the internals of my video over the course of making 30 videos gets better and
better and better then my videos eventually would start to rank and you would see them in search
well guess what if i do one day where i'm trying to eat this way of eating so my 20 grams of carbs
and i'm eating enough protein and i'm eating to satiation i'm just enough fat and i do that one
day i'm not going to have success however if i do that 30 40 50 100 days in a row
the more that i do that the more my internals will match the quality ingredients
that i'm using to build me and once that starts happening guess what happens my health improves so
what are we learning here if we only focus on the tactical approach the strategy of doing youtube
you won't grow a channel the same way that if you only focus on the tactical approach the strategy
of eating well but not the actual foods that you're eating the quality won't be
there you're not going to learn how to have a healthier body but if you put your energy and
time into understanding what foods you need to eat to build a quality body so not just
a tactical twenty percent this and five percent but the the practical 20 grams of carbs or less
that's the important number and the other tactical bits and pieces are not the important thing it's
the quality of the food when we do it that way how does our health improve your health is actually
about giving a satisfactory experience to your body the same way that youtube is about giving a
satisfactory experience to the viewer you will get bigger positive reaction from your body the better
quality of food that you feed it if i eat a processed keto bar versus a whole foods keto meal
my body will respond appropriately and better to the whole foods keto meal because the macros
in both of them might be the same but the quality of the keto meal is better i want to point it out
because i think it's so important to say we think that these keto bars and snacks and fun foods
are equivalent to these healthy whole foods that we cook they are not and when
we allow ourselves to eat too many of these keto processed foods we damage our health we cannot
force a youtube audience to accept a garbage video as quality and we cannot force our body to accept
garbage food as quality whether it's processed keto or processed regular food if it's garbage our
body is going to react to it as if it's garbage if you want to be healthy we need to understand
that perfect macros do not guarantee our health if you eat quality food that's what guarantees
your health low in carb good quality food the best that you can afford unprocessed whole foods
