STOP Eating Butter For Weight Loss & Eat These 3 Foods Instead! | Dr. Mindy Pelz

okay resetters let's talk about butter I

know we've all become a little butter

obsessed maybe even put butter in our

coffee but I'm gonna show you in this

video that there's actually three better

Foods you could be eating if you're

trying to lose weight other than butter

yeah and some people I know are eating

better to lose weight so let's debunk

this myth about butter and weight loss

and let me show you three different

foods I want you to lean into that are

better than butter that will support

your weight loss Journey let's dive in

the first thing I think we got to ask

ourselves is where along the nutritional

line did we decide that butter was a

great tool for weight loss and I think

it really started back in the Atkins

days if you remember the Atkins diet

where everybody was eating a ton of fat

and they're eating all all kinds of fat

good fat and bad fat it was meat and fat

but then we started to realize wait a

second there's a difference between good

fat and bad fat so we evolved into the

ketogenic movement where all of a sudden

we said carbs are bad but fat is good

good fat is good so we all moved away

from refined carbohydrate we started to

eat more Nature's carbs and we started

to really think we had to bring our fat

levels up so that we could move into

ketosis and so that's where grass-fed

butter started to really make a a

comeback or it had its debut and then

out of the keto Movement we started

putting butter in our coffee because we

were looking at butter as a as a tool to

kill our hunger in the morning so that

we could be into these longer fasted

States so all of those you know kind of

got us to this place of understanding

that fat might actually help us not hurt

us but I want to evolve this to a new

place because we are trying to

metabolically switch for weight loss

that's what we're trying to do so if

you're trying to get into the fat

burning State and burn fat for energy

through fasting there are three foods

you want to bring in before you do it go

into your fasted state that will help

you burn more fat in these states so

here we go here's the first one is that

you want to focus on protein can you

bring your protein level up I cannot not

I feel like protein is the new weight

butter for weight loss really I want you

to think about this for a moment when we

bring protein up we stimulate something

called mtor and mtor is where we start

to see growth of muscles so you'll start

to see that your muscles will get

stronger when your strong muscles get

stronger you create more insulin

receptor sites when you have more

insulin receptor sites there's more

doors for your body to push glucose into

muscles when your body's pushing glucose

into muscles now that muscle can be used

for energy like when you're working out

and not stored as fat when you have less

muscle you have less insulin receptor

site when there are less insulin

receptor sites there's not as many

openings for glucose to get pushed in

and that glucose will be stored as fat I

want to Rebrand fat fat is just excess

your body put excess glucose it put

excess hormones excess toxins so let's

create more muscle so it can put the

glucose posts into that into the muscle

to be used for our benefit so one gram

of protein for every pound of body

weight you want to be I really encourage

you to do protein cycling where every

couple hours you're doing another 30

grams of protein so you can trigger

amino acid receptor sites if that's

brand new I've done a ton of videos I'm

sure my team will link some videos in

here for you to to lean into to

understand protein cycling but the

protein is the new butter for weight

loss it is really really powerful so

that's your first one the second one is

I want you to look at other good fats

specifically MCT oil so think of this

metabolic switch as needing some

lubrication so sometimes we need to lean

into other fats and MCT oil is the one

that switches you over the best this is

why MCT oil in your coffee in the

morning can actually help you elongate

your fasting window putting you in this

fasted state where you're burning fat

for a longer period of time so what MCT

oil will do in your coffee as you switch

over is it makes it easier to switch and

all of a sudden now MCT oil helps you

create ketones and those ketones will go

up into the brain and kill your hunger

hormone so when we're looking at Fat

Loss we're also looking at how do we

make sure you're not hungry in your

fasted state so you can you can really

help minimize the hunger in that fasted

state by adding MCT oil in specifically

in your coffee in the morning okay my

last food group really and something I

really encourage you to to add in in

your sugar burn Interstate when you are

eating and that is fiber so I want you

to think of fiber as breaks on your

blood sugar so when you like I'll give

you an example of something that I love

to break my fast with okay I gotta

interrupt this video because I have a

free guide for you so you can Master

fasting it's called a beginner's guide

to a fasting lifestyle and all you've

got to do is click here and you can Jump

Right In usually around noon I will make

a big green salad and I'll put a ton of

Greens in there so that I can make sure

that my microbiome is well fed wow I put

a ton of protein on that that's a pretty

common first meal that I'll have but

what fiber is doing is it's feeding the

bacteria that balance your blood sugar

so when you add in that extra fiber and

that blood sugar is more balanced what

ends up happening is that you're going

to switch over into the fat burning

State faster the second part about fiber

that's so important is that it feeds a

set of bacteria that break estrogen down

and so when we add in more fiber what

happens is we feed the bacteria that

break that estrogen down if you don't

feed those bacteria and estrogen doesn't

get broken down it will get stored as

fat so you know we gotta think about

food is this incredible weight loss tool

in this really you know it's like a

chemistry experiment that we're what

we're talking about here feeding that

microbiome so it can break down estrogen

we're looking at protein to open up

insulin receptor sites so that we can

drive glucose into your muscles not into

fat and we're lubricating the metabolic

switch using these good oils that's

there is a science to weight loss so if

you've never heard that before two

things don't give up on yourself try

these three things spread the word so we

can make weight loss efforts effortless

for people and let's start all embracing

this idea of metabolic switching as the

weight loss tool and if you can learn

how to work with your body so it doesn't

have to store that excess in fat you

will find that you can effortlessly lose

weight and you can eat a lot of food

it's not about deprivation it's about

tapping into the science of your body I

know you're struggling to lose weight it

may be your fasting length so in this

video I'm going to show you the perfect

fasting length to unstick weight loss in

fact it's such an incredible tool for

weight loss I think you should start

with fasting before you change your food

to be able to get into that door in for

losing weight
