Keto ReBoot Retreat Saigon

REBOOT YOUR ENTIRE HEALTH & FAT BURNING SYSTEM

Prevention is the best medicine! We have the science and have developed a programme that can ‘life-hack’ your biological system to exponentially improve your health and protect you the four major life threatening diseases or quality of life killers of our time. The Body Expert Systems Keto ReBoot Retreat is here! A 72 hour retreat scientifically designed to reboot your total health; potent anti-cancer effects, strengthen and reset digestive function and power, brain protecting, amazing anti-aging results and greatly improved ability to metabolise fat to get effortlessly lean and boost performance.

MEDICINE IS A BANDAGE EFFECT… BE PROACTIVE WITH YOUR HEALTH

Our Keto ReBoot Retreat could be the programme that saves your life… at least creates a high quality life experience well into your later years. “If you’re over 40 and don’t smoke, there’s about a 70% to 80% chance you’ll die from one of four diseases: heart disease, cerebrovascular disease, cancer or neurodegenerative disease” (Peter Attia, MD). Our lifestyle and nutrition habits have the biggest impact on our health and longevity. The Body Expert Keto ReBoot Retreat is focused on enhancing both cognitive and physical wellbeing. Protecting the brain, regenerating healthy cell tissue and rebooting the immune and digestive systems are the priority aims of this programme.

Everyone knows what heart disease and cancer are but we are not so well versed on neurodegenerative or cerebrovascular diseases.

Neurodegenerative disease is an umbrella term for a range of conditions that primarily affect the neurons in the human brain. Neurons are the building blocks of the nervous system, which includes the brain and spinal cord. Neurodegenerative diseases affect millions of people worldwide. To have the ability to protect and even enhance cognitive function is extremely important especially for plus 40 year olds… wouldn’t you agree?

According to the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences “Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease are the most common types of neurodegenerative diseases, with more than five million Americans living with Alzheimer’s disease, and at least 500,000 Americans living with Parkinson’s disease, although some estimates are much higher. Neurodegenerative diseases occur when nerve cells in the brain or peripheral nervous system lose function over time and ultimately die.

The risk of being affected by a neurodegenerative disease increases dramatically with age. This creates a critical need, as we get older, to take action with preventative care. Environmental factors play a large role in the development of these diseases or simply a slow deterioration of cognitive function, as you get older. Body Expert Systems Keto ReBoot Retreat is created to combat the onset of cognitive disorders.

Cerebrovascular disease refers to a group of conditions that can lead to a cerebrovascular event, such as a stroke. In the United States (U.S.), cerebrovascular disease is the fifth most common cause of death. In 2016, it caused 142,142 deaths in total. A range of illnesses that we can now help to prevent via nutrition protocols.

Cerebrovascular events affect the blood vessels and blood supply to the brain. If a blockage, malformation, or hemorrhage prevents the brain cells from getting enough oxygen, brain damage can result.

Other than being killed in an accident (described as unintentional injuries) the above 4 mentioned diseases are what is going to kill us… and the longer we live the more certainty that it will be one of these four will destroy our quality of life or take it.

Now you can do something to protect yourself… not only protect yourself but also enhance the quality of your life…

We have an emphasis that our programme is Keto. We aim to utilise the amazing health and brain protecting qualities of ketones. Ketones, also known as “ketone bodies,” are by-products of the body breaking down fat for energy that occurs when carbohydrate intake is low.

Here’s how it works:

When there isn’t a sufficient level of available glucose and glycogen levels are depleted, blood sugar and insulin are lowered and the body looks for an alternative source of fuel: in this case, fat
The body begins breaking down fats for energy, a process known as beta-oxidation, ketones are formed for use as fuel for the body and brain. This is known as ketosis
People following a ketogenic diet specifically reduce their carbohydrate intake for this reason: to create ketones for energy.

Many people use the benefits of ketosis — as previously mentioned — to burn more fat, lower blood pressure, reduce cravings, improve cholesterol, increase weight loss, improve energy, protect the brain and much more. Below I have attempted to briefly explain the many benefits of our Keto ReBoot Retreat.

Benefits Explained:

There are a huge number of benefits to taking part in and completing our programme. Immense health and anti-aging as well as performance benefits… below is a brief explanation of the major reasons we are so exciting to bring the Keto ReBoot Retreat to you.

Health Benefits:

Autophagy:

Autophagy is a natural regeneration process within the human auto regulatory system. It’s the process that removes toxins and estrogenic chemicals as well as recycles damaged cell components. This is where the body eats old, dead or ill functioning cells and replaces them with more efficient cells… basically cell recycling. Healthy cells in the body react to the FMD by shielding themselves, whereas deranged or dead cells are left exposed and easily identified by processes of regeneration or elimination.

As we age the autophagy process slows down. Old cells accumulate causing damage in the body, turning into free radicals, creating inefficiencies that may lead to cancer and other diseases.

It is very well established and proven that autophagy is increased during the process of fasting. A mere 24-hour fast is proven to improve autophagy by 300%. Our Keto ReBoot Retreat is a clever combination of fasting and a ketogenic diet to get the best of both of these amazing protocols. In fact, our Retreat will have your body purging dead, damaged and inefficient cells at 330 x faster than normal… which means you’ll feel a lot younger and better afterwards.

Brain:

Our Keto ReBoot FMD protocol is extremely beneficial for your brain. Your brain will go into a neuro-protective phase and a heightened cognitive state of function. The programme will cause a reduction in synaptic activity causing the brain to conserve energy and effectively giving it a little reboot. This will reduce oxidative damage in the brain and nervous system, which helps protect against neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s, Dementia, Parkinson’s & ALS, while also helping with Autism and Epilepsy.

There is also wide spread research proving that ketone bodies, especially β-hydroxybutyrate (BHB), provide neuroprotection against diverse types of cellular injury. When the brain is using ketones for fuel it seems to be protected against the same diseases mentioned above.

Liver:

When the liver goes through a heightened phase of autophagy it drastically improves the rate of lipidosis or the ability to burn and utilize fat as a fuel. The liver will work better… when liver cells are more effective your body will burn more fat and filter harmful chemicals better. A more effective liver will also make you more insulin sensitive and this is proven to enhance both longevity and fat burning.

Immune System:

The fact is our immune system is working overtime all the time. Our living environment is full of toxins and pollutants, with many foods containing pesticides, preservatives, and additives. All of these foreign substances cause our system to go into high alert to ensure these substances don’t make us sick and are removed from our system. By minimising your exposure to harmful chemicals it allows your body to naturally reset its immune system.

Ketones & Reduced Inflammation: ketones have a huge positive effect on the immune system. The aim of our programme is to get you into a state of ketosis as quickly as possible. The reason for this is that the ketone body Beta Hydroxybutyrate (BHB) dramatically decreases inflammation markers. A Yale University study found that BHB blocks NLRP3 inflammasome. NLRP3 inflammasome is a big cause of bad inflammation within our bodies and when we have high levels of ketones, particularly BHB, it allows us to reset our immune system and allows our bodies to recover, as it should.

Ageing is associated with a progressive functional decline of the immune system, commonly referred to as immunosenescence. In general, men experience a stronger age-dependent alteration of immune function than women (Yan et al., 2010). If we can reduce inflammation and boost the production of new cells we can fight the aging process.

Anti-Ageing:

Stem Cell Creation: The protocol we use during the Keto ReBoot Retreat has been shown to dramatically increase stem cell regeneration. In other words, simply completing our nutritional programme will create stem cells. A stem cell is a cell that recreates “life” in a given area of the body. Someone with bad knees might get an injection of stem cells into the knee in hope of bringing new “life” or new tissue development to repair the knee. Our programme is a much cheaper way of regenerating the entire body.

Enzyme Reduction: our programme reduces the amount of enzymes that contribute to ageing. Protein kinase A (PKA) or more precisely known as adenosine 3′,5′- monophosphate (cyclic AMP) – dependent protein kinase increases with age. Now this is pretty in depth stuff but to keep it simple, when PKA enzyme is lower it allows stem cells to be higher. More stem cells mean more regeneration and less ageing.

Digestion:

Hippocrates said “all disease begins in the gut” and it’s taken us 2000 years to start to figure out that he was correct. Optimal gut flora and digestive function is crucial for your health and fat loss. Amongst other things, healthy gut flora promotes proper gastrointestinal function, regulates your metabolism and makes up more than 75% of your immune system.

A lot of people go through their days, weeks, months, years and entire life with joint pain, sleep disturbances, arthritis, fever, skin irritations, fatigue, night sweets, headaches, depression, and so on. A lot of the time I find people accept the fact that they feel ‘crappy’ and believe “such is life”. But this is not the case… All these symptoms or feelings are, for the most part, a result of poor diet and lifestyle. Ryan Andrews of Precision Nutrition puts it like this “If Mama ain’t happy, ain’t nobody happy. Substitute “gut” for “mama” and you pretty much get the picture”. Poor gut health is a big problem in modern day society yet one of the easiest to counteract. Every time you eat, or digest, our gut doesn’t get a chance to heal. When your gut doesn’t have an opportunity to heal, your gut mucosal layer breaks down, which is the major cause of leaky gut syndrome (LGS) commonly leading on to the development of autoimmune diseases.

For a better understanding of what leaky gut syndrome is go to our article: Tips for improving stomach health

Our Keto ReBoot Retreat will give your body an enhanced chance to heal the digestive system and improve gut health. It will encourage and stimulate mucosal layer repair that will put you in a better position to process and metabolise nutrients. We end our programme with supplements and foods that restore the gut layer and provide you clear recommendations to continue with post retreat.

Fat Loss & Performance Benefits:

We have created this programme with the specific aim of gaining maximum health and longevity benefits. However, we do not want this to be detrimental to body composition or performance. Any programme you partake in should not cause a loss of muscle or be negative to performance… after all a loss in muscle mass is technically the definition of ageing. We want you to come out of the retreat feeling great, having not lost any of your hard earned gains and be able to maintain the benefits you will obtain during our Keto ReBoot Retreat programme.

Muscle Maintenance:

Our programme initiates an increase in human growth hormone (HGH). The Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism state that programmes like ours produce a 5-fold increase in HGH and the Journal or Clinical Investigation support this by recording a 2000% increase in HGH.

The benefits of increased HGH (for short periods) is it’s impact on retaining muscle mass and overall burning of fat. In fact, programmes based on our scientific structure show an increase in all beneficial hormones and enzymes for muscle retention and fat burning.

Our Keto ReBoot protocol is protein sparing. Along with HGH, the ketone body β-hydroxybutyrate (BHB) preserves muscle from breaking down also. In actual fact the presence of BHB promoted protein synthesis. Protein synthesis is the process of cells generating new proteins. In other words, having ketones in your body encourages your body to build more muscle or in our case protect it.

Fat Loss:

Our programme stimulates a massive increase in adrenaline and noradrenaline… in other words your sympathetic nervous system (SNS) kicks into overdrive. We safely put your body into “fight or flight” mode, which not only keeps you alert but causes your body to utilize fats, particularly white fat cells, for fuel. White fat cells role is to basically store energy where as brown fats role is to create heat hence burning energy. Consequently, white fat is described as bad fat and brown referred to as good fat. The increased release of noradrenaline and elevated SNS response therefore helps you burn a lot of fat.

Our system also increases insulin sensitivity. Some studies show a decrease in insulin of 40%, which will make you store less and burn more fat. The programme trains your body to utilize ketones and fat as fuel… essentially rebooting your fat burning metabolism and storage mechanisms.

Performance:

The science is very promising in regard to improved performance resulting from calorie restrictive and ketogenic protocols… when implemented correctly. However, studies are limited at this time and for the general public (non-athlete) it is a very personal experience based on the level of current conditioning.

So what does the science say with regard to the benefits of our Keto ReBoot protocol on performance? The key benefits of calorie restrictive adn ketogenic diets include:

Increased mitochondrial efficiency:
1. Caloric restriction (CR) induces mitochondrial biogenesis and improved physical fitness in rodents.
2. Generates less reactive oxygen species, while mitochondria are still able to maintain their critical ATP production

Delays the onset of the anaerobic phase of exercise resulting in improved work capacity.
Lower heart rate: CR interventions reduced athletes’ heart rates when performing the same exercise at the same duration and level of power
More efficient energy burner: Studies showed that participants energy expenditure was about 10%-14% lower after the calorie restriction intervention than before it
Perception of exertion decrease: In addition, the In this sense, the perception of exertion, as indicated by the Borg index, also decreased after the CR when compared to values observed previously, under an unrestricted diet
Lower blood lactate levels: lactate levels during a range of different intensities of running periods were significantly lower after CR when compared to pre-CR levels

There are also studies proving the benefits of performance when using ketones for energy; being in a state of nutritional ketosis. Again at this point in time studies are limited but initial findings are very promising… benefits include:

Accelerate muscle protein and glycogen resynthesis by 2.5x
Reduce lactic acid production by 50%
Ketones provide a fuel source that’s 28% more efficient per unit oxygen than carbohydrate
Improve cognitive performance: Long races are mentally exhausting. Improve and sustain peak cognitive performance during exercise
Reduce inflammation for better recover

To conclude:

Physical performance parameters, such as heart rate, lactate levels, fatigue perception (Borg index), energy expenditure were significantly improved as a consequence of programmes such as our Keto ReBoot Retreat. Ketones are an exceptional fuel for activity as well as in the promotion of recovery post exercise.

My personal experience was extremely positive. I felt euphoric during exercise and was able to perform at the same intensity and volume of work even at the end of our programme. At the completion of the retreat I felt less fatigued during and after workouts and clearly had not lost lean tissue (muscle) mass… an extremely beneficial response. Normal fasting would leave you diminished, weak and lethargic having to claw your way back to fitness and your usual performance levels – not a result any of us want!
