Daily Calories:
Instructions: Select ONE option per meal. This Phase VIII protocol focuses on Central Nervous System (CNS) recovery post-heavy loading. It utilizes adaptogenic herbs and extremely high-quality Omega fats to repair neural fatigue, while keeping net carbs at ketogenic levels to sustain aggressive fat loss.
| Hydration: Consume 4–6 litres of fluid. Sodium and potassium levels must be strictly monitored to prevent muscular and neural cramping during deep ketosis.
| Fats: Prioritize Brain-Boosting Fats: Coconut oil (MCTs), Walnuts, and Ghee. These fats cross the blood-brain barrier rapidly to fuel cognitive focus during caloric deficits.
