Hey Folks! You asked for it, and we delivered. We're back with a Q&A episode! If you have a question for a future episode, submit them here https://robbwolf.com/contact/submit-a-question-for-the-podcast/   Show notes: 1. (4:41) Ketosis and Carbohydrate timing Ryan says: Hi Robb. I don't know if this will reach you, but while listening to your podcast and reading your first book, a hundred questions pop into my head. This is one of them. I thought about asking my doctor, but I knew a blank stare and a sweaty forehead would be his answer. So here goes: Does frequency of carb intake play a role in disrupting ketosis? For example, if I am going to eat 150 grams in total of carbohydrates today, will eating all 150 grams of carbs at the same meal knock me out of ketosis for an EQUAL amount of time as eating 15 grams every hour for 10 hours?* My theory is eating 15 grams of carbs an hour for 10 hours will be just enough to keep a person out of ketosis for a longer period of time than eating all 150 grams in one
