Doctor Ranks Every Way to Lose Visceral Fat (TIER LIST)
In a Nutshell
Doctor ranks visceral fat loss methods in a tier list, placing MRI/CT tracking, microbiome restoration, sterile eating (no processed foods/oils), and 72-hour weekly fasts as Legendary; ruminant meat, fermented foods, and stress management as B-tier. Avoid F-tier pitfalls like endurance cardio (causes leaky gut/sarcopenia), calories in/out obsession, grains/sourdough, juices/smoothies/fruit/honey (fructose drives visceral fat), low-fat diets, bariatric surgery, and PEDs/steroids. Quality trumps quantity: prioritize gut health via sterile carnivore-style eating with live ferments over junk calories or carbs.

Doctor has 15 years experience eliminating visceral fat, 13 years tracking it with MRIs, more experience than anyone else. Presents tier list for eliminating this fat. Quality matters more than quantity: quality of fat and quality of actions matter most. Numbers matter but track it properly.
Track visceral fat with MRI or CT (MRI better, no radiation). Best for visualizing fat to process through brain, unlike DEXA scan which gives only a number. You're not as healthy as you think; expect shock even with six-pack abs. Visceral fat is hidden disease, invisible externally. Doctor sees it in subtle biomarkers on skin and body.
Restoring microbiome is key; doctor prefers to be known as microbiome doctor for eliminating visceral fat. Restore to baby-like or ancestors' level before lifestyle destruction. Requires work and effort.
Eat sterile, not just clean: nothing bad enters body, no processed foods, no processed oils, no compromise. For optimization, no cheating with cereals, pizzas, muffins, cookies, ice cream. Some are on verge of heart attack; decide health worth. Better health leads to more enjoyable life.
Fasting is dose-dependent: longer fasts yield better results. Not 40-80 day fasts, but for average person, aim for 72-hour fasts (3 days, no calories) about once a week. Then recover by eating heavily, like ancestors: nothing between hunts, then pounds of meat quickly. Gradually increase fasting time; starting with 72 hours leads to weakness and quitting. Biologically adapted for it.
