Episode 473: Building your Protocol for Body Fat Burn

Episode 473: Building your Protocol for Body Fat Burn

Author: Ali Miller RD December 15, 2025 Duration: 1:00:19
Are you trying to lose body fat but feel stuck despite doing “everything right”? Are calorie tracking and restrictive diets leaving you frustrated or burnt out? Are you curious how to burn fat while supporting hormones, gut health, and long-term food freedom?  In this episode, we break down how to build a body fat burning protocol using a functional medicine approach that prioritizes macronutrient strategy over calorie obsession. We explain how lowering insulin can unlock stubborn metabolism, why metabolic flexibility is the real goal, and how a Keto Reset can be used therapeutically to reduce inflammation, stabilize blood sugar, support gut health, and shift body composition—all while emphasizing antioxidant-rich, real food and sustainable behavior change. You’ll learn how we translate calorie ranges into macros, adjust targets when physiology demands it, and use food-as-medicine tools to help break a plateau, reduce cravings, balance hormones, and achieve true food freedom.
