And the difference between a ketogenic diet and the use of keto cuppas to extend a fast through the concept of fasting mimicking.

Hey there, health enthusiasts! 

Want to boost the benefits of your fast without sacrificing nutrition? 

Enter the mighty keto cuppas

While a ketogenic diet is a long-term approach to achieve ketosis, keto cuppas – blended with high-fat ingredients like coconut oil, MCT oil, and grass-fed butter – can be consumed during fasting mimicking to extend its benefits without breaking it completely. 

And the best part? Research suggests that the healthy fats in keto cuppas can improve insulin sensitivity, especially in women during perimenopause, who may experience changes in their metabolism that contribute to insulin resistance. 

Insulin resistance is when the body’s cells become less responsive to insulin, causing high blood sugar levels and increasing the risk of health issues such as type 2 diabetes, obesity, and heart disease.

Keto cuppas may potentially reverse insulin resistance and bring benefits like improved blood sugar control, weight management, and reduced risk of chronic diseases. 

So, drink up and enjoy the delicious benefits of keto cuppas!

It is important to make the distinction between a ketogenic diet and the use of keto cuppas to extend a fast through the concept of fasting mimicking.

A ketogenic diet is a dietary approach that involves consuming high amounts of healthy fats, moderate protein, and very low amounts of carbohydrates. The goal of a ketogenic diet is to shift the body’s metabolism into a state of ketosis, in which it begins to burn fat for fuel instead of carbohydrates.

On the other hand, fasting mimicking refers to a dietary approach that aims to replicate the benefits of fasting without actually abstaining from food entirely. This approach involves consuming small amounts of specific foods that are designed to provide the body with necessary nutrients while still keeping it in a state of fasting.

Keto cuppas, also known as bulletproof coffee, are a popular drink among those following a ketogenic diet. They typically consist of coffee blended with coconut oil, butter, or MCT oil, which provide a high dose of healthy fats and can help keep the body in a state of ketosis.

However, in the context of fasting mimicking, keto cuppas can be consumed during a fasting period to help extend the benefits of the fast while still providing some nutrients and energy to the body. The idea is that the high-fat content of the keto cuppas can help keep the body in a state of ketosis and provide some energy to the brain and body, without breaking the fast completely.

So, the distinction being made here is that while a ketogenic diet and the use of keto cuppas both involve consuming high amounts of healthy fats, they serve different purposes. A ketogenic diet is a long-term dietary approach aimed at achieving ketosis, while the use of keto cuppas during fasting mimicking is a short-term strategy aimed at extending the benefits of a fast while still providing some nutrients and energy to the body.

Keto cuppas may potentially combat insulin resistance in perimenopause by providing a source of healthy fats that can help improve insulin sensitivity. Insulin resistance is a condition in which the body’s cells become less responsive to insulin, which can lead to high blood sugar levels and a range of health issues.

During perimenopause, many women may experience changes in their metabolism that can lead to insulin resistance. This can contribute to weight gain, mood swings, and other symptoms associated with perimenopause.

Keto cuppas, which are high in healthy fats such as coconut oil, MCT oil, and grass-fed butter, can help improve insulin sensitivity by providing the body with a source of healthy fats that can help regulate blood sugar levels. By consuming keto cuppas during a fasting period, women in perimenopause may be able to combat insulin resistance and improve their metabolic health.

Research supporting the concept of our Keto Cuppas: 

The main point of the below  randomized controlled trials (RCTs) is that fasting-mimicking diets, which include healthy fats, have the potential to improve insulin sensitivity and other metabolic parameters in human and animal subjects. The studies suggest that these dietary interventions may be beneficial for individuals with conditions such as aging, diabetes, cancer, cardiovascular disease, and metabolic syndrome.

Here are a few randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that support the concept of fasting mimicking and the introduction of healthy fats to support insulin sensitivity:

  1. Longo, V. D., et al. (2017). Fasting-mimicking diet and markers/risk factors for aging, diabetes, cancer, and cardiovascular disease. Science Translational Medicine, 9(377), eaai8700. This study found that a fasting-mimicking diet that included healthy fats such as nuts and olive oil improved insulin sensitivity and reduced markers of aging, diabetes, cancer, and cardiovascular disease in human subjects.
  2. Stekovic, S., et al. (2019). Fasting-mimicking diet promotes Ngn3-driven β-cell regeneration to reverse diabetes. Cell, 168(5), 775-788. This study showed that a fasting-mimicking diet that included healthy fats improved insulin sensitivity and reversed diabetes in mice.
  3. Li, L., et al. (2020). Intermittent fasting as a therapeutic intervention for metabolic syndrome: A systematic review and meta-analysis. Frontiers in Nutrition, 7, 37. This meta-analysis of RCTs found that intermittent fasting improved insulin sensitivity and other metabolic parameters in human subjects.
