Exogenous ketones have been exploding on to the market. Unfortunately there is SO MUCH CONFUSION as to what ketones do AND what ketones don’t do – thanks to companies like this (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_jT41iTH1hE&t=512s) that scam people out of a ton of money.

Therefore, I wanted to bring some clarity to exogenous ketones and talk about what they really are, what they may be used for, and the research behind them.

For a list of studies on exogenous ketones go to:

I know this was a lot to digest to feel free to drop some comments below and I will do my best to answer your questions.

Here's Part 2 of the video https://youtu.be/omhtbubBjxU
Where I discuss the therapeutic potential of ketones and talk about what they ARE NOT.

What if it were possible to train your brain like you train your muscles at the gym? There are numerous biohacking tips and tricks to improve brain health that are simply overlooked. On this episode of What The Fat, I sit down and discuss neurological health with Dr. Andrew Hill. Dr. Hill is a neuroscientist, entrepreneur, and biohacking advocate. He holds a PhD. in Cognitive Neuroscience from UCLA, and is best known for his mission to bring the brain-hacking technology of neurofeedback into mainstream practice. To achieve this, Dr. Hill founded Peak Brain Institute in 2015, a community-oriented company that teaches brain-training from a fitness perspective, and uses EEG Neurofeedback and QEEG Brain Mapping designed to help all people achieve their brain performance goals.

In this episode of What The Fat, I sit down with Christina Curp, better known as Castaway Kitchen. At 29 years old and 2 years postpartum, Cristina hit rock bottom with her health. On top of an inflammatory skin condition she had lived with for years, Hidradenitis Suppurativa, she began to experience many mystery symptoms and inflammation, Cristina took to the kitchen to find wellness.

Using her culinary prowess and love of research, she began to discover the connection between her symptoms and the food she ate. This ongoing experiment birthed her blog, which is a collection of inventive, allergen-friendly, low carb, whole-food recipes that have helped her reverse autoimmune disease, lose weight, and take control of her own health and well-being.

The recipes were a hit on the internet and social media and The Castaway Kitchen was born! This opened doors to writing books and prompted her enrollment in the NTA program. It's been a lot of hard work, but for Christina, helping people has been worth it.

Early this year I made my way out to Rythmia Life Advancement Center in Costa Rica. Little did I know what I was in for……

Not only was this my first Ayahausca experience, but it was my first ever psychedelic experience (talk about going from 0-100 – real quick). That being the case, it was an honor to have my first time be at a safe, well respected place like Rythmia (vs the middle of the jungle in Peru, etc).

In this video you’ll find an entire recap of what the experience was like including the ceremonies, what I experienced, and even some of what I was still processing several weeks after returning home.

If you’re looking for some more information here are some great links:

What the Fat Episode I did with Gerard Powell, CEO of Rythmia (his story is mind-blowing): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MGZ_RwJUytw&t=18s

He also has a really interesting book called: Sh*t the Moon Said: A Story of Sex, Drugs, and Ayahuasca

In Part 1 of my Vegan Experiment I talked in depth about my body composition results. Check that out here if you haven’t already seen it (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZF_x9GC5S8E)

In this video we dive deep into my blood work. Several people were concerned that all I was eating was “processed” vegan junk. Well, my blood tells a different story and in fact, the majority of my diet consisted of what you will see in this video – nuts, avocados, and yes, even some legumes.

There were definitely some changes in my bloodwork that are important to note and provide context around which I did here. Particularly, when discussing lipids, it’s important to understand that Total Cholesterol and LDL Cholesterol don’t tell the entire picture by themselves. If you want to check out the studies I was referencing, you can find them below:

I recently announced that I was going vegan for a month : https://youtu.be/8NBL3Zxv9b8

To be honest, I was pretty excited to try something different. After posting my video discussing The Game Changers documentary and pointing out some issues I had with their conclusions and references they mentioned (https://youtu.be/cuMoEnqd3EQ), I got a lot of backlash for never trying vegan – and to be honest, they made a fair point.

In June 2019 I did a month-long carnivore experiment. I set out to test everything possible including blood work, microbiome, body composition, etc. If you are interested in those results you can check them out here: https://youtu.be/5vPMKpfzyfA

Thus, it was only fitting that I started 2020 with a month-long vegan experiment. I went into this month with a very open mind. In fact, though I typically eat pretty strict ketogenic, I stayed lower carb for the month of December as I knew it would be extremely difficult to stay keto on a vegan diet. Thus, I did my best to stay low carb and monitored this with a continuous glucose monitor for the first two weeks.

As you will see, my body composition results turned out to be ……… less than ideal. Make sure you watch all the way through to see my final results and explanation for what I think was going on.

STAY TUNED for Part 2 coming. To all my plant-based friends, don’t worry, it appears to get better. In Part 2 I’ll be sharing my blood results as well as my microbiome results as well as answer some of the questions people have here on Part 1.

James Ellington is the embodiment of the underdog. Even when his athletic career suffered due to a lack of sponsorships, he never gave up. James revolutionized the sponsorship game by securing his spot in the 2012 Olympics by selling himself for sponsorship on eBay. He continued to secure his title as a powerful 100-meter relay sprinter by placing 5th in the 4x100 Meter Relay in the 2016 Olympics, 3rd in the IAAF World Relays in 2014, and 1st in the 2014 & 2016 European Championships (all for the 4x100 Meter Relays). His career was abruptly put on hold when a life-threatening motorcycle accident left doctors saying he may never walk, let alone compete, again. James powered through with the mentality of taking it one day at a time. In this podcast, James dives into how he overcame his injuries, his journey with keto to fix hormone imbalances, and how struggling as an underdog gave him the strength to overcome any obstacle.

Move over Dos Equis guy, I’ve found a new most interesting man in the world.
Gerard Powell, the founder of the Rythmia Life Advancement Center in Costa Rica, had
to overcome years of delinquency, drug addiction, and depression in order to find his
true purpose in life. Gerry discovered Ayahausca after a trip to Costa Rica, an
experience recounted in his powerful book Sh*t The Moon Said. During this trip, he
discovered the root of his behavioral problems and ended with him obtaining the
blueprint to Rythmia, which would later become the #1 best-rated resort (in the world)
on Trip Advisor. While Gerry details the numerous mistakes he made over the years, he
explains that he hopes to be remembered as the guy who screwed up hundreds of
times but, was able to completely change his life around. In this podcast, we dive into
Gerard’s life story, the benefits of plant medicine, and achieving spiritual healing.
If you are interested in checking out Rythmia, check out the link below or give them a call at:

The time has finally come – I’m GOING VEGAN

After my GameChangers video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cuMoEnqd3EQ) I got a lot of requests to go vegan for a month and just try it. At first, I was resistant to it since I’ve been a meat-eater my entire life, but one thing I’ve always predicated myself on as a scientist is testing things out on myself. So here we go….

I’m going to be going full vegan for the next month. We did a whole host of testing at our facility including:

1) DXA determined Body Composition

2) InBody determined Body Composition

3) Cognitive Testing

4) Wingate Peak and Average Power

5) Microbiome Testing

6) Blood work including

a. CBC

b. CMP

c. HsCRP

d. Vitamin B12

e. Ferritin

f. Iron

g. Testosterone Free

h. Testosterone Total

i. T3 and T4

j. NMR

k. LH

l. FSH

m. Estradiol

n. Omega Fatty Acid content

I’ll be posting my daily updates on Instagram @ryanplowery. If anyone has any advice on staying low carb on their vegan journey, I’d love to hear from you below in the comments. Here we go!

This is the time of year that people tend to slow down, but I believe in ramping it up. It is these last few days before the end of a decade that will separate those who will succeed and those who will fail. That being said, success without fulfillment is the ultimate failure. While I believe you should always give to those around you, no matter the time of year, this giving season does act as a healthy reminder to serve those around you. Service comes in many forms and may be as simple as a smile or words of affirmation. As this year and this decade come to a close, I encourage you to take care of yourself so that you can be both willing and able to serve those around you. Let’s finish off the year strong and embrace 2020 with a grateful heart and positive mindset.
