Mark, an inspiration to many, including Dr. Accurso himself, shares his journey from a high-performing endurance athlete to a leading advocate for primal health and ketogenic diets.

The Evolution of Health and Performance
Mark Sisson's journey is a testament to the power of transformation. From his early days as a runner and triathlete, Mark quickly realized that the conventional wisdom of high carbohydrate intake was sabotaging his health. Despite being outwardly fit, he faced debilitating issues like osteoarthritis and irritable bowel syndrome.

This pivotal moment ignited his quest to explore the hidden genetic switches that control our health, a field now known as epigenetics.

The Keto Reset Diet: A Kinder, Gentler Approach
Mark's latest book, "The Keto Reset Diet," aims to reboot metabolism and promote fat burning in just 21 days. Unlike the rigid approach of early ketogenic diets, Mark advocates for a gradual transition, focusing on reducing carbohydrates while embracing healthy fats and abundant vegetables. "It's about metabolic flexibility," Mark explains. "The goal isn't to have high ketone levels, but to improve your body's ability to switch between burning fats and carbohydrates."

Mark also addresses common misconceptions about the keto diet, offering reassurance to skeptics. "Humans are obligate fat burners," he notes, pointing out that our ancestors thrived on fat as a primary fuel source. By gently easing into ketosis, individuals can avoid the dreaded "keto flu" and unlock the benefits of sustained energy, improved cognition, and muscle preservation.

Beyond Diet: The Primal Lifestyle
While diet is crucial, Mark emphasizes the importance of holistic lifestyle changes. Adequate sleep, regular exercise, sun exposure, and social interaction all play vital roles in achieving optimal health. "Everything in our lives impacts how we rebuild and regenerate," Mark says, advocating for a balanced approach that integrates body and mind.
