Bol, the middle of the word, B-O-L, means beginning of life. Ism is a system. So it's the system that your body uses to transform whatever nutrients are coming in into new life, meaning into energy that can be able to repair a cell or replace a damaged cell.

Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
okay right now because our body is just made up of a bunch of these cells that have this lipid bilayer that needs to be permeable meaning that things need to be go need to go into it or get the nutrients in in order to make sure that the mitochondria is getting the energy that it needs to produce energy to be able to do what the body needs it for right yeah so

If your cells are locked up by, well, all of the environmental toxins that we're around every single day, there's about 80,000 of these different things we're exposed to on a daily basis. You've got things that are endocrine disrupting. You've got hormone problems and challenges. You've got biotoxins, heavy metals from vaccines.

You've got all of these different things that can block the cell, causing that cell not to work the way it's supposed to, ultimately leading to things like cancer.

Yeah. And, you know, resulting in also problems with the brain, right? Where you're losing cognitive function, all of these different things. Having problems, being able to lose weight is only one of the symptoms that are happening. Right. as a result of poor metabolic health, right? So that just happened to be where I was.

Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
So where I was struggling with being able to lose weight and he had cancer, we really had unlocked the key into how to be able to allow these cells to be able to open up get the nutrients that they need, know what nutrients that the cells need in order to be able to heal this metabolic issue. As a result of then applying that to myself, I lost the 65 pounds. That was 14 years ago.

haven't gained it back, it's easier now to be able to stay at an actual healthy weight. And the reason I say actual healthy weight is because I had tricked my mind into thinking that for me way back then, 185 pounds was my healthy weight, which was not true at all. The fact of the matter is just anytime I would try to lose weight, I would always get stuck at 185 pounds.

You know, everybody has a metabolic thermostat. In other words, that's the way like the thermostat in your house. When you set the thermostat in your house, if we have it here at 70 degrees, well, no matter how hot it is outside, right, or how cold it is outside, it's going to lock in at

Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
that temperature your body does the same thing i was locked in at 185 pounds so if i went on a diet or i exercised a ton i could get under 185 pounds let's say get to 180 but i would always bounce back up to 185 as soon as i stopped being perfect right that's where my thermostat was and that right there is proof that losing weight or having a healthy metabolism well it's

Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
You can't do that with diet and exercise alone. You really got to heal the body at a cellular level. And so that's why now it's easy to maintain a healthy weight. So for me, a healthy weight is 155 pounds on my body. And so that's why that's possible. I'm healthier now than I've ever been before.

Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
And it really took going through that pain of struggling myself, the pain of him struggling, in order for us to really see our purpose was to educate and teach people. solutions to this metabolic problem, which is really an epidemic, not just in the United States, but it's an epidemic worldwide.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
And so what we want to do is make sure that we're not just teaching people how to live this, what we call a happier, healthier life, but give them really things that they can do every single day to be healing their metabolism and not get into the problem in the first place.

Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
man yeah go ahead well i i used to be on that side where i was like that's what i had learned it's just all about calories right and so you could be eating all those i remember way back in in the day when everything was was no fat well no fat really just equaled um lots of sugar in it right and so i would look for things well first it was i would look for things that was no fat and then i would look for things that didn't have any calories regardless of where those calories were coming from but

Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
the reality is the research has already been been done the research is out there for those people who do think um all calories are created equal well they where they've taken people that they've given foods that are processed ultra processed foods given that group the same exact amount of calories that they're giving a group that's getting the same amount of calories but nutrient rich foods
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
And they followed these people and shown that the people who were eating the ultra processed foods end up gaining more weight than the other group that are actually eating nutrients. Right. Putting nutrients into their body. So right there, that already shows us that, you know what, all calories are not created equal. Right.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
Well, first of all, one of the things you said was, yeah, about all of the information. Another thing that we talked about is going, okay, you got to ask the questions. You got to ask better questions. Well, where is all of the information actually coming from, right?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
So when we look at where the information is coming from, most of the information is coming from, well, wherever it is that you get your media from. whether it's your phone or the TV or walking down the aisle at the grocery store. And so where is this whole calorie nonsense coming from?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
Typically, it's going to be, well, I don't know, go down the cereal aisle and you're going to see like low calories on the different cereals. And the first thing that you're going to do is you're going to go to the panel on the back. That's where the information that is actually coming from. And you've got people that are in that aisle and we've seen them all.

Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
They've got the box out there looking at the box right there. What are they looking for? How many calories does this have in it? Going to put that back. That's got way too many calories. But if I pick up this box of cereal right here, it is super high in protein and doesn't have very many calories. And guess what? That same box of cereal is endorsed by the American Heart Association.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
So when you got the American Heart Association in bed with the people who are also doing the research, in order to research what drugs are going to give you for the diabetes that that actual cereal caused you to have, it's kind of effed up when you have the agency called the Food and Drug Administration. How do food and drugs actually go together, right? Yeah.

Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
So that right there is the fox is guarding the hen house, okay? So the fox is guarding the hen house on that. Why in the world would they want you to be healthy in the first place? Because guess what?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
The more disease that you actually have, the more sickness and illness you have from eating whatever that thing is, that cereal was, well, the more likely you are to be right there buying more drugs. It all goes together. So we just talked about research, for example. Who's doing the research? Who's funding the research? Well, the research is being funded by the drug company.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
If the drug company is funding the research, they already know the outcome that they want to have. So if they already know the outcome that they want to have, guess what they're going to do? They're going to manipulate the numbers to be able to make it look like, right, it's in their favor. Why would they do anything else? So then guess what they have?

Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
They have that research paper that becomes their marketing piece. Their marketing piece to give to the doctor that's going to give you the diabetes medication. Do you see where we have a problem here? And that's where the information is coming to us from that all calories are created equal.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
They want us to think that all calories are created equal because if we think all calories are created equal, we're going to pick that food that has a decreased amount of calories in it and then we're going to end up sick. If we end up sick, we're now buying more drugs. We being not us in this room, right? So that's where there's a problem with the calories thing.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
And I think it's and I talk about that because we got to ask more questions on, OK, yeah, where exactly is this information coming from? Who's paying for us to get that information right there? And if we really dive deep into where that's coming from, we can see that. Yeah. those people really don't want us healthy.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
They want us to think that it is calories in, calories out, or all calories are created equal because as long as we think that, they're going to make a lot more money, right? So that's the biggest lobbying group right now in Washington, D.C. is the American Pharmaceutical Association. That's not by accident, right? That's on purpose. Who is funding all of this stuff? They are. So follow the money.

I'm like, I don't want anybody. I remember that. It was yesterday before going there and going through the drive-thru at McDonald's and I'm like, shit, I hope like my kids' parents don't see me in this line. They have no idea what it is that I'm doing, but we got that happy meal, whatever it was at the time. And we're showing people that, yeah, this isn't the food that you want to eat.

And then forgot it in the garage for like two years, right? I'm cleaning out the garage. buy this hamburger in there, open it up and looked exactly the same as the day that we bought it two years prior. It's now seven years later and that McDonald's hamburger still looks exactly the same. The French fries look exactly the same.

And I think that's where people do get confused because like Randy was saying, Even us, we had a protein bar line that we had commissioned a nutrition company to make this, a reputable nutrition company to make these protein bars.

Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
And yeah, looking, you know, finding a protein bar in my backpack two years later, and it was still good as new, which lets us know that the preservatives that are in there, right, those are chemical toxins, right? that when you put that into your body, that is an endocrine disruptor.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
And so the more we disrupt our endocrine system, the more we mess up the hormones, the more likely it is that your metabolism is just not going to work. So here's what we say to people that come into our web is, you know what, let's get you fat adapted. Let's get your body choosing to burn fat for fuel first by having a healthy metabolism.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
For us, when we work with people, it takes us five weeks to be able to make that happen. It doesn't take long at all. So when we work with somebody who's got the weight to lose, the average female is going to lose 22 plus pounds in that five weeks.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
And then, and because we're getting them fat adapted, look, people have, you know, so many calories available and a calorie is nothing more than a unit of energy. So they've got these units of energy available. If you've got somebody that's got 50 pounds of body fat, well, every pound of body fat takes about, you gotta burn about 3,500 calories for that one pound.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
So if you multiply 3,500 calories times 50, that person has a capacity, right? Or has like, gosh, almost 400,000 calories available to burn. That person is not going to starve to death. As long as you get them burning those calories from the fat, they're going to be in a much better place before they're burning the calories from sugar or carbohydrates.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
So in the five weeks, once we get them to do that, we then spend three weeks retraining that person's metabolism to lock that in place. or resetting it, locking it in place so it doesn't go backwards. So during those three weeks, we're now getting that person to where they're now carb adapted. So we don't tell people to stop eating carbohydrates or stop eating sugar forever.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
In fact, we were just on a team meeting earlier And one of our team members, they were telling us about this client who had come in and she was shocked.

Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
Yeah. So she's like, oh my gosh, guys, I can't believe this. I'm eating carbohydrates in this last week that I've added that I've been eating these carbohydrates. I've actually lost a pound. That's never happened to me in my entire life.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
It is beautiful. That's called metabolic flexibility. So your body should be burning fat for fuel. It should also be able to switch into burning carbohydrates for fuel as well. The problem is it's kind of like having, let's say you've got one of these cars that are both electric and use gasoline. There's two types of fuel sources, right? Yeah.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
So the car is programmed to burn one or the other, right? If you're at a stoplight, it's like the engine cuts off and now it's just electric, right? Yeah.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
Yep.

Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
Our body is the exact same way. When it needs it, it can be able to pull energy from carbohydrates. It should be able to pull energy from fats. But most people are only pulling that energy from the carbohydrates because their body is not fat adapted. Got it.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
That right there means that they've got a metabolic disruption. Something's disrupting that person's body's metabolism. It's why it's not working. So the first thing that we do when we see somebody is we have them take a metabolic disruptor assessment so we can find out where that's at.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
And then we can be able to customize a program specific to that person because everybody is unique and different. That's why there is no one size fits all approach to healing anybody's metabolism because everybody is different. It's got to be customized. So once we know that, we can then be able to take them through this system, which for us is really simple.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
We're super simple in our approach to helping anybody because we feel like if somebody is confused or anything's confusing, they stop. Right. They don't follow through. You know, for us, we'll follow through and we'll persevere. But most people aren't going to hang in there because they're not getting the results.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
So because people are getting results very quickly, they're with us for these five weeks. The next thing you know, they've dropped, you know, 20, 30 plus pounds. And now we're locking and resetting that person's metabolism. So it's not going back.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
And so that's what I would say to answer your question is, what would you do to that for that person that has been, you know, afraid of eating fats or, you know, scared of eating the carbohydrates? Well, we would get them fat adapted. We'd get their metabolism working properly again. And then once we've got a foundation of, with where they do have a healthier metabolism.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
Then there's some other things that we can put into place, like some biohacking type of strategies, some lifestyle strategies, but we have to have that foundation. So, which is why we just literally flew in last night from a retreat that we had for
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
people who have already been through our program and so when they come to came to this retreat we spent five days with them showing them all of these different biohacking techniques that we use but these are all people who are already fat adapted so they already have that good metabolic foundation now we can take them to another level which we then call our happy healthy for life which is all about well
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
living a happy, healthy life for the rest of your life. Because I don't know about you, but for me, being 53 years old is all about the next 50. What's this next 50 going to look like? And it's going to look like me getting to at least 120 of happy, healthy years, being able to do whatever it is that I want.

I was going to say, so just like Brady was saying, just on that same line of thinking, I'm still not counting calories at all. So I'm still counting nutrients and I'm eating to full. Okay. So it's not going to be, hey, this has this many calories. Exactly. This many grams of fat, this many grams of protein. It's just going to be, I'm eating to full. Got it.

And so it's really about, like he was saying, for me, it's what it is that my body needs and requires, which is obviously going to be different than what yours is. I'm not exercising as much as you are, for example. Right. Sure. You know, for me, just a full.

First, I'd ask, who's they? Well, you know who the fuck they are everywhere. They are everywhere.

Right. And so there's nothing I mean, medium chain triglyceride, which is what MCT oil stands for. If you have a full spectrum oil, for example, like a coconut oil is medium chain triglyceride. But it's a full spectrum oil. That's the way it's naturally occurring in nature, right? So when you look at it, you've got a short chain, one to five carbons long.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
You've got medium chain, six to 12 carbons long. Well, they're longer carbons. It's harder for the body to be able to digest that type of a saturated fat. But here's the problem is that most people now are doing the MCT oil when you see it packaged that way, which is actually a fractionated oil, right? So they're isolating the carbon chain.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
In order to isolate the carbon chain, you've got to break the bond. It doesn't happen like that naturally in nature. So because it doesn't happen like that naturally in nature, our body's not equipped and designed to be able to digest that or break it down naturally.

So that's why when people are doing large amounts of this MCT oil and their gut can't actually digest it and break it down, they get this thing called disaster pants. Are you familiar with disaster pants, right? If you know, you know. It's self-explanatory, yeah. I mean, you're in the middle of a heavy lift and the next thing you know, you've got this...

Well, it's naturally occurring in nature like that one to five carbons long, but you also want there's so many health benefits and healing benefits to the gut that you get from it, which is why we would never break it down and isolate those chains that way because it doesn't happen like that in nature. And so the great thing about like with our SET oil is you can heat it at very high heat.

Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
And it doesn't break it down, which is great. And it also tastes fantastic. That's also a great thing, too. But with MCT oil or these fractionated oils, you can't heat it up. I don't know if you've ever tried to heat up an MCT oil at high heat. It makes your entire house smell like metal. They use metals to be able to fractionate these oils. So that's our thoughts on the MCT oil.

Oh, SCT oil, you can absolutely cook with it. You can. Okay. As soon as we wrap up, I'm going to head to the house and make me a big, fat, juicy, grass-fed ribeye, doused in some SCT oil. I'll say. It's delicious. So you can absolutely cook with it. It's not going to denature. It's super stable in high heat. Yeah. Yeah, you can melt it and drizzle it on things as well.

So, I mean, anything that you would use, a coconut oil or an MCT oil, it's much better to use the SCT oil for it. So it's way better for the gut, the colon, super healing, and it tastes phenomenal.

Well, okay, well, you just said it. Artificial sweeteners. Artificial. So if it's artificial, it ain't real. Right. You put it in your body, right? Right. So, I mean, I think everybody probably knows the dangers of putting all these chemicals, food dyes into their body. It's just not okay. They are endocrine disruptors. It is pervasive. It is progressive in nature, meaning that once you –

Cognitive decline, whether it's the Parkinson's, the Alzheimer's, if you've ever seen that or been around anybody that's had that, it's one of the worst things that you could ever see a human being go through. Yeah. And it's more now than ever before. It's more now because we've got the statin drugs that are out there, which are linked the side effects to causing this cognitive decline.

So, you know, it all goes together. So obviously, we don't want to put these artificial things into our bodies. And really, God only knows what it is that they're doing now to the stevia is right, which, you know, which does come from a plant. It does have no again, it goes back to the no calories thing. So people are going to is no calories. It doesn't mean it has any nutrient value to it. Right.

Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
So why not put something that's nutrition, you know, nutritionists that have that is nutrient dense into your body than not.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
So it goes back to not looking at the calories in, calories out, and making sure that your body does have that metabolic flexibility that we're talking about, does have that firm metabolic foundation so that you can put a real food that's not artificial into your body, like real honey, for example, as your sweetener.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
people don't want to put the real honey in there because their body is not fat adapted um because now they're afraid of their insulin levels going up and then storing fat well they're only storing fat because their body doesn't know how to burn the fat for fuel to begin with and so that's why people are turning to all of these artificial sweeteners because it's a lot easier for somebody to get that sweet taste or that sweet hit right that they're so used to habitually
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
But the reality is this, is that when your body truly is fat adapted and it is burning the fat for fuel, you don't have those cravings. And I speak from personal experience to where, you know what? I used to need to eat something sweet after every single meal. I understand. No matter what. I used to be teased from saying, you know what, you know, people say, you know, I've got a sweet tooth.

Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
People would tease me and say, hey, you don't have a sweet tooth. You have sweet teeth, right? Multiple because I always needed something sweet. But once your body starts asking for the right fuels, you know what? It does want the fats. It doesn't want those saturated fats, the fats coming from the beef or or animals, which is really high in satiety, meaning that you get full a lot quicker. Right.

Oh, same exact way. I'm like, yeah, like he was saying, just with the oxalates, the defense chemicals that you're like literally squeezing into that juice right there. It's like you're making a poison concoction. No wonder it's green. It doesn't taste good, right? Yeah, kryptonite is green for a reason, right? So why would you put that on your body? That's my feelings on that.

Sunday, I was on a plane headed over to Spain to see what was going on. I had no idea, honestly, what it is that I was walking into. We really hadn't talked very much because 14 years ago, it was not as easy to communicate internationally as it is now with cell phones. Right. I remember. Right. It was like the flip phone and, you know, the whole thing. And so, yeah.

that sounded familiar, but he was saying him in a way that we had never heard it before when he was talking about metabolism and chronic illness being downstream of poor metabolic health. And when he was saying that my ears were listening, not from the intention of hearing it through how to heal cancer, what Randy didn't know during that time is I was going through my own metabolic problem.

Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
My metabolic problem was something that I'd been going through my entire life up to that point. Had always, for me, struggled with my weight. So metabolism to me meant if I see that person that's really thin, well, it's easy for that person to be thin because they were blessed with a great metabolism.

Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
And I got screwed with a shitty metabolism to where I really, no matter what it is that I tried to do, couldn't lose weight. unless I literally would starve myself. And I can remember when I was 13 years old going, you know what? I'm really motivated to lose weight right now. I'm 13 and I'm a boy. I wasn't motivated by any health reasons.

Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
I was motivated because, well, 13-year-old girls were not interested in the chubby fat kid.

Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
So I did what I learned from everybody else, specifically my mom. You know, she was always chronically on a diet. It was like every Monday she would start her new diet, whether it was like the boiled egg diet, the lean cuisine diet, the slim fast diet, the Weight Watchers diet, you know, and she would exercise like crazy. And I'm like, OK, well, if that It's going to work.

If a little is good, then a lot must be better. So instead of just reducing calories by a little bit, I'm just not going to eat. I can do hard things. And so I would go like six, sometimes seven days without eating and just drinking water. And I lost. I went from 210 pounds when I was in the eighth grade all the way down to 124 pounds when I started my ninth grade year.

Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
People I'd gone to school with. Dylan, my entire life didn't even recognize me when I came into high school because I had lost so much weight. Now, was I thin? Yes. Was I healthy? Absolutely not because I had starved myself, right? Starving yourselves and the nutrition that they need is not a good thing.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
And so what that did for me at 13 years old is it totally just killed my metabolism, wrecked it. Because of that, from that point on, I had to be perfect with how I ate, perfect with my physical exercise in order to maintain what I thought was a healthy weight. And so now fast forward to 38 years old. We're in Spain.

Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
I had so much inflammation from an injury to my lower back that I could barely walk. So because I could barely walk, I couldn't exercise anymore. And because I couldn't exercise anymore, all of a sudden I ballooned up over 65 pounds. And so I was 65 pounds heavier in Spain, literally dragging around the legs. So what Randy didn't know was that I was in that much pain.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
So me even getting on an airplane to fly over to Spain was agonizing. And so just standing up was agonizing. So back then in Spain, we were not the happy, healthy guys that you see behind us. We were the fat and overweight. The sick, depressed, almost dead guys. In pain. You wouldn't have had us on the podcast to listen to anything that we had to say at that time if you would have seen us. Yeah.

Episode #12 Featuring The Happy Healthy Guys! THE METABOLISM AND DIET EPISODE! Fix your metabolism, Calories in vs. Out Myths, SCT vs MCT Oil, , Cholesterol Myths, Nutrient Dense Food, Animal Based Nutrition, Artificial Sweeteners and More!!
Yeah. Talk about depressing. So true story. So like Randy, I was also ashamed because I was teaching, you know, our patients how to be healthy as well. And so that really got me thinking is, you know what, I've got to do something different than what I've been doing. And for the first time now, this doc talking about metabolism in a way that I'd never heard it before.

metabolic health or metabolic illness metabolic disease metabolic syndrome all these different things but they're really not giving any solutions to what to do about it and they're really not talking about exactly what it is and metabolism metabolism is simply this if you dissect the word let's make it simple yeah meta means transformation
