"We need to ‘catch a breath’ if we are to survive. Fasting is that breath. And no wonder Fasting is now in fashion. We are beginning to get the clue. Intermittent fasting can be practiced in many ways, but the superior way is to let Nature dictate the rules. We have a built-in system that Nature designed to guide us in the best way to do this, and everything else we should be doing: our intuition.”

The Cutting- Edge Mostly Plant-Based Keto Food Plan

The root of almost all modern-day health problems is inflammation - this includes everything from heart disease and cancer to just not being able to lose weight properly. In fact, an estimated 50 million Americans have an autoimmune condition, leading to health issues than can cost someone their life.

Top 4 Mistakes People Make While Eating Keto & How to Fix Them

Dr. Cole knows that the ketogenic diet has legitimate and exciting science behind it. This high fat, low carb diet has been shown to enhance brain health, restore energy, lower inflammation, stabilize blood sugar, and so much more. But he’s quick to remind the public that this diet only works when it’s done right.

Gut Feelings: Healing the Shame-Fueled Relationship Between What You Eat and How You Feel

It’s easy to suffer from frustration and confusion when it comes to nutrition and health. With so much focus on what, when, and how to eat, the emotional component of eating tends to get left behind. Dr. Will Cole sheds light on the relationship between your physical and emotional health, providing a framework for you to better understand the gut-brain connection and influence that connection for the better. He illustrates how stress and shame can cause gut inflammation and sabotage your health in a process called Shameflammation. On the other end, problems with the gut can often present themselves in the form of mood swings, anxiety, and food cravings. True health isn’t just about what you eat, but how you feel.

Ketotarian: The (Mostly) Plant-Based Plan to Burn Fat, Boost Your Energy, Crush Your Cravings

A new twist on keto: The fat-burning power of ketogenic eating meets the clean green benefits of a plant-centric plate

The keto craze is just getting warmed up. The ketogenic diet kick-starts your body’s metabolism so it burns fat, instead of sugar, as its primary fuel. But most ketogenic plans are meat- and dairy-heavy, creating a host of other problems, especially for those who prefer plants at the center of the plate. Dr. Will Cole comes to the rescue with Ketotarian, which has all the fat-burning benefits without the antibiotics and hormones that are packed into most keto diets.
