I started Keto carnivore Dr. Berry's way for a few months now. Lost 30 pounds reversed my diabetes, no more IBS or reflux, no more gas issues. My BP is dropping. My kidneys are healing, even my brain is working better, I breatth better. My nails and hair are growing. My joints don't hurt like they used too. My headaches are seriously reduced. I went off metformin. Wow. Amazing. Thank you Dr Berry. BTW. I journaled it all. Every thing I ate. My Blood sugar every day.
Incredible! This is such great news! Keep it up! Glad you are finding health!❤️
Glad you found the way !!👋👋🌹🌹
What is keto carnivore is it more meat and little vegetable
Thanks much love
You should blog your journal!
My story isn't about weight, and I often regret that these conversations focus on obesity, although I understand why that's the case.
I went carnivore about a year ago, at age 63, and eliminated my eczema and blepharitis, which more than one doctor told me wasn't curable, only manageable. The relief I experienced from ending that wretched itching is indescribable. I hope anyone with a chronic condition takes matters into their own hands and researches the proper human diet. You do NOT need to suffer. And the solution is FREE. That's why it's unpopular.
Me too!
@@marybeth6676 You mean you got rid of a chronic skin condition? Dermatologists would have to find a new livelihood if they told patients the truth.
@@TerriblePerfection The medical field and especially the dermatologists are all pretenders. They don't have the slightest clue about anything but they pretend to know and it is so obvious when listening to them. And the money they charge for their pretending to know is unbelievable.
Hit the nail on the head. It's free. Lol. Good on you!
@@user-ob5nk3ss1p yup they're good at naming a "disease" and pedaling an expensive drug and get lots of $ from insurance which people pay too much for. All just to HOPEFULLY give some relief in that particular disease process. Meanwhile poisoning you and messing something else up. Doesn't make much sense
26:07 " It's clear to me the emphasis should be shifted from 'Fat is bad. Cholesterol is bad.' to 'Sugar is bad. Diabetes is bad.' "
Dr Westman a very humble man...
What happens too often in the doctor's office is this:
A patient does keto on his own, and the doctor sees that the patient (1) lost 25 pounds (2) lowered his fasting blood sugar (3) lowered his blood pressure (4) lost his eczema (5) improved his mood (6) got rid of his digestive ailments (7) raised his "good cholesterol" (HDL) and (8) drastically lowered his triglycerides.
But then the doctor sees that the LDL went up, and declares that this diet is unhealthy,
Such a doctor simply needs to learn the science around cholesterol, and to stop taking medical advice from congressional committees and other bureaucrats.
Preach it Frank! My endocrinologist about fell off his chair when my six thyroid nodules shrunk 2 years running after growing (on SAD diet) for 8 years. This still can't change his mind to use Keto to reverse his type 2 diabetic patients. Medical doctors are so afraid of the lows. I can imagine that even one patient in a diabetic coma would be devastating to a doctor. Teaching someone how to dose insulin is so different than teaching someone how to eat low carb and safely lower their insulin. Even the smartest brains and most well meaning doctors can't seem to wrap their heads around how safe this is and how healthy it is! I will give him Dr. Westman's new book, End Your Carb Confusion and Gary Taubes' new book, The Case for Keto & keep shrinking those nodules. What else can we do?!?!
AMEN!!
@@2fixmj563 Sandra Westley here in the UK we have hospitals that are rolling out very low carbohydrate more good fats etc and they are reversing diabetes
Frank, ain't that the truth!
That’s what my doctor has done. She is really worried about me and wants to put me on statins. My pre diabetes has been reversed, triglycerides are lower, etc. But my bad cholesterol is up and she’s worried. But she is not even an MD or heart doctor.
I stopped eating carbs three years ago and my hip stopped hurting as well as losing 70 pounds plus I experienced many other health benefits.
Dr. Westman is truly one of those giants. Have learned so much from the both of you. Thank you for what you do.
Dr. Berry, you are such a hero. I first watched you about 2 years ago and was amazed about how much sense you made about the dangers of sugar. It's been amazing to watch your influence grow. I admire the way you speak the truth and from the heart, despite all of the obvious pressures and temptations that exist in the medical and food industry. Such a great example to others and the next generation.
I did Atkins when his second edition came out more than 30 years ago. I recently bought his first book and read it in one day. Dr. Atkins did advocate a low carb diet, almost carnivore, and he even talked about intermittent fasting in different words. In addition, Dr. Atkins advocated eating beef. I was completely shocked when Dr. Atkins died in such a horrible way.
Dr Berry I'm not doing Keto to lose weight but to get rid of RA inflammation. My goal is to get off the 2 meds I'm been on for 2 years.
My 2 favorite Doctors!! You both have been instrumental in my 2 year Keto journey!!
-100+lbs forever lost! Thank you both!!🙂💪Keto 4 life!!
I am 68 yrs old from Palau was sent to Taiwan for medical referral and I was diagnosed with takayasu arteritis by Dr Sun and Huang. now I'm recovering after 2 mos. under their care. I 'd lost 20lbs lbs. before the before I went. now I've gained 6lbs of muscles through training heavy with keto carnivores diet. though I still have some coordination problems I'm pretty lean strong feeling great. I'd first learned from the "CURE" abou Dr Atkins and sugar since 2000. and you very right on the money. so with a deepest gratitude I wish the best and wonderful holidays and a safe and great shiny new year.
Thank God for both of you!!!! Thank you for not accepting the “status quo” of regular medicine. I am thrilled every time I hear someone state that their doctor recommends advice like both of yours! My health and life are changed for the better forever because of you both and your books and videos. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!
Appreciate the credit given Dr. Robert Atkins. He never got his due. "They" dogged him every step of the way, since his first book in 1972 which truly was a "Diet Revolution". They hated that he was right. I'll always wonder if the good Dr. Atkins's unfortunate slip on the ice back in 2003 was an "accident". Very convenient timing for "them", the famous Dr. Cornish included. Thanks.
You're right about Doctor Atkins. For a period of time, Atkins was THE face to the public of low-carb/keto. He took so much flak, unfairly, that soon other low-carb keto diets that were only Barely different from Atkins came forward (South Beach Diet, etc....) and they all said essentially "Yes, low-carb is the way to go but we're not like that crazy Atkins diet! Oh, No! Ours is entirely different. We do HEALTHY low-carb/keto...." blah blah blah. And they would mischaracterize Atkins as consisting of nothing more than only eating the tops off of pizzas. As I said, these diets were all not much different from what Atkins actually put forth, but they wanted to distance themselves from Atkins specifically. There's a diet plan promoted on TV right now, that talks about insulin resistance. It's all the rage now to talk about IR, and actually that's probably a good thing. But I first read about "insulin resistance" in the Atkins book in February of 1999. (I started low-carb/keto Feb 17, 1999.) And the Atkins book had already been around for several (about 20?) years by then.
@@TheFrankHummer Right on all counts. RIP Dr. Atkins.
It’s clear that the powers that be have purposely been keeping us misled and sick. Nothing would surprise me regarding Atkins’s fall.
Hey Doctor Berry! Been doing keto for two years and have lost almost a hundred pounds. I’m very pleased with the process!!
I started keto approximately 10 years ago thanks to Dr Westman he's one of my heroes, thanks to Dr . Westman I lost 87 lbs.
Thank you Dr Berry for bringing him on to your show
Dr you get fired up to help people your truly a special person great job
Excellent video. Thank you both for all you do‼️ I just purchased Dr.Westman’s new book 👍 Stay safe😷❤️ P.S...down 100+ pounds and have been low carb (
Hi, is total carbs the carbs and fiber total? Ty..
@@diannereynaert9729 No. Total carbs does not deduct the fiber, that would be “Net” Carbs.
Wow, just to see your names together in the same title is an honor. Thank you for your devotion to us 🙏🏾❤️
Dr Westman and Dr Berry, that's double trouble for diabetes!
And for the pharmaceutical industry!
@@lovemylifeflorida2641 You know that's right.
Chronic heartburn hurts so bad it's so painful, it's amazing how the Keto has eliminated that.
Have just started keto about 2months ago. Was able to check urine ketones and I am there. Am headed towards carnivore bc I am 70 and have some pretty threatening health issues. So far my intense back pain is much better. Had wild caught salmon today and loved it. I am sold already on this type of eating due to the improvements I have already experienced. Thanks Dr s for educating us about the truth ❗🕊️😊🌹💗💓💛💜💞💙💐🌺🌄
I love Dr Berry’s passion!
You both are my hero’s and have been for some time.. To real Doctors in a world today that seems to have supply chain issues in medicine too! God bless you both..
I started my 'ketolife' with Atkins, and actually READ his book, took notes, used the recipes, and made mealplans from that book - and it worked perfectly.
And when you actually really look at the food lists and the 'rules' for the real keto diet, and for the Atkins diet that is written in the original book - they are EXACTLY the same.
But as they talk about, the Atkins name was falsely dragged through the mud, and some people still totally misinterpret the Atkins diet, because most of them very clearly haven't read the book.
I also started my journey with Atkins more than 20 years ago. I studied and followed his first book. It does work. I lost 60 lbs with Atkins, but managed to fall off the wagon again and again. I'm doing keto/ ketovore now and trying to get back on track. I have no gall bladder and no thyroid due to cancer at 27 years old and I have been diagnosed diabetic type 2 in 2018, when I went keto and lost 90 lbs. I am not considered Diabetic anymore and have perfect blood work despite my weight now.
preach it guys, love you devotion to helping people, truth wins, results win, we have to change our mindset and thinking. im 66; starting low carbs, stop sugar(hard) and learning keto eating, what a big change and learning curve, it makes sense to run on fat not sugar, work with the hormones, logical.
I'm 69 and started keto about 3 months ago, I've lost nearly a stone and feel so much better, in fact, if I go back just for one day to eating as I used to, I feel really unwell, so I'm enjoying not missing the sugar cravings and eating healthily plus fasting, and it just 'feels' right also...thank you for all the research into cholesterol/heart disease myths from the past 50 yrs, our diets definitely need to be keto/low carb/IF....proof is in the pudding 😁
Great interview!! So happy there are brilliant professionals working to inform the public.
Watching you from Savannah, GA!
306 lbs two weeks ago, today 289 lbs started no(
Hello from the uk...definitely a Keto convert...been 5 years. Great talk guys ! 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
The book End Your CARB Confusion by Eric C Westman is available in the Apple iBooks Book Store too (UK).
Thank you doctors for your voice there greatly appreciated in this world of toxic food
This way of eating is quickly changing my life. Love it!
I just bought the women's world because of the mention on the cover of a keto doctor from Duke. I knew it was Dr. Westman even though his name was not mentioned.
I actually heard Keto diet from an Oncologist from Herman Memorial Hospital inHouston,Tex. Since my brother had a brain tumor, his doctor suggested I look seriously into the Keto diet. It took me 3 years to do it the right way. But since 1/1/21, I’ve been on strict keto and seriously thinking about carnivore. So far I’ve lost 14 # and 100% off sugar. ( I’m staying with it for a year and maybe forever. Fasted for first time ever -42 hrs. I’m proud of myself.slow weight loss,but I’ve been a sugar addict.
Love Dr Berry and Dr Eric Westman 🥰
just finding this conversation. Great to see you both and hear what you have to say, thanks.
I wish one of these doctors or both be a guest on Doctor Radio on Sirius XM. I listened to a show a few weeks ago and the cardiologist was mocking the keto diet to a caller who was asking about it.
My entire adult life (starting at puberty- I was a normal skinny kid til 13 or so) consisted of either gaining, or starving myself to lose. I started WW at 32 or do.
They forced me to eat breakfast, which I never did before.
Now at 65, I am happy to skip eating again, until I'm hungry at about mid afternoon.
Better late than never, but keto IS the diet for me! I am perfectly suited to this way of eating!
Thank you Dr's, for fighting the good fight!
Best interview yet!!!
My dad had prostate cancer and was doing Ornish diet. They ate beans back then, though.
On Keto 13 months, (6 ft tall 58 years old) went from 265lb, now 195lb. I have not felt this good in years! I have a fairly physical job, but no additional "exercise". Fed up with Dr's so I don't know my numbers.
You are telling us the total truth and I thank you
I started with 20 total carbs Lost wonderful, I changed to 20 net ,stopped losing and now gained ,So For me I am going back to total carbs ,But I do love vegetables 😥
Yep me too
Amazing Doctors
thanks you dr berry. now i can enjoy and learn more whit this conference.
Yes doctors just tell you are pre-diabetic, lose weight, and here is your medications. I refused to use medication, researched Keto got on Keto and I have lost 25 lbs. and and lowered my A1C. I am still working on my health until I get a normal A1C. My husband is a diabetic and is on insulin and I see what he goes through and I do not want to go through this. My husband is doing Keto with me, he still has some carbs, because of his medications. He has lowered his insulin since doing Keto. I love Keto, I’ve never been happier eating, all the food I love to eat. Less than 30 carb and happy. I was in WW since 1985 - 2018. Imagine all the money and all the pounds I lost and gained back. I lost 40 lbs. right away, but I was younger and more active too. AS I got older, it did not work any more. And I felt deprived of food. Thank you Dr, Berry and Dr. Westman for the great information!
I'm a 67yr old female 5'3, 160 lbs. I was diagnosed a T2 diabetic @ 61. My A1C was 7.3 in Oct. 2020. I have been on metformin 1000mg twice a day, 1mg glimperide per day also on blood pressure & cholesterol meds. I retired in May & new medicare Dr. added the cholesterol med and wanted me to try the Mediterranean diet but he sent me to a nutrionist and she told me I wasn't eating enough carbs & said I need to eat at least 30grams of carbs per all 3 meals. I have been on stevia for a couple of yrs. I told her what I basically eat for breakfast around 7am included an egg & bacon, a piece of sola bread(2 grams ) with sugarfree peanut butter & plain cinnamon. She told me to add 30 grams of carbs and would rather see me eat regular whole grain bread. For lunch @ 12:00 I was eating a cup of soup or meat with salad also around 4:00pm. I wasn't loosing weight but I wasn't gaining either she told me because not enough carbs. I'm not doing a whole lot of exercizing either. I ask her about keto & she said people on keto loose muscle weight not fat weight & if I stayed on longer than a month would blow out my kidneys. I want off the meds! I wonder why I wasn't loosing weight just maintaining with lower carbs. I don't know??
Check out Mark Sisson on YT, he’s a good spokesman about his journey on Keto, low carb and his athletic journey. He’s a long distance runner.
Is keto working for you
Hi from Missouri Jana Lee
You Dr. Westman and Dr. Robert Cywes are My Go to Doctor’s… 59 Year Old Male 254 to 185 lbs over the last 4 Years of Doing the PHD “Proper Human Diet” Lost all my weigh March 2018 thru June 2018 and Kept it Off 🥩🥓🧈🥚 Dial it down to more Ketovore/Carnivore from the Ketogenic Diet 😊
End your carb confusion. A book by Dr westermsn.
I live in Chicago. And am full bore Carnivore. If I needed to see a Dr I’d fly to TN to see Ken. Regular blood work and stay satiated with beef and water.
Thank you both, great video.
I lost 62 lbs at age 73 , thank you. Now 76 still eating the real human diet.
I think a lot of credit should be given in retrospect to Professor John Yudkin who wrote ' pure , white , and deadly ' back in about 1970 . No it wasn't a book about heroin or cocaine , but it was about the dangers of refined carbs . It is also very interesting and tragic to see how ' vested interests ' acted to discredit Professor Yudkin. If his recommendations were taken on board at that time , think of what the health of high refined carb diet dependent nations would look like now !?
Like you say Dr B the average doctor isn’t up to date with the latest info. They are basically promoting obesity because they are way too ‘comfortable’ in their current practice, too afraid to deviate from the norm.
I tried the Atkins plan many years ago. I lost it when I started adding back in carbs. The carbs got me out of control again.
These online seminars, classes, and workshops are economically and financially prohibitive, therefore elitist. Insurance so far won't cover anything. Low-income folks like me are limited and have to learn from free resources.
Did you look at the course Dr Westman mentioned? He didn’t make it sound elitist to me.
So helpful thank you 😊😊😊👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏❣❣❣
Thanks getting the book

I’ve fired 2 docs already because they know crap about nutrition. I ask what their optimum diet plan is. If low fat comes out of their mouth “You’re Fired”. I had one who didn’t like my 200 cholesterol. Statins were NEVER mentioned but when I got home later my pharmacist called and said my statin Rx was ready. Fired another one. 🤪

Gabe Oitoucher, If you see this, I wanted to respond to your question about asthma and the carnivore diet. You might need to get your meat from clean sources. If you're already eating grass fed, organic meat, then I don't know. But, carnivore is a more involved plan than just eating meat. Again, if you know this, then my apologies.
Fabulous. Xxx
4.5 stone off here.

Big pharmaceuticals, who make pots of money off the naive public, will lose pots of that money. What a tragedy. 💰💰
Hey Dr. Berry! Could you do a video about fluoride toothpaste? There are a lot of mixed opinions about this. Is it bad for you or is the amount of fluoride in the toothpaste too little to cause any issues? Thanks!
I was 304 lbs and had an A1C of 8.4 and high bp. Now, I'm off my bp meds, A1C is 5.5 and I've lost 82 lbs in 1 year. It works and likely saved my life!
Wow! That’s fantastic!
Peter that’s so wonderful!
Wow awesome !! Congrats !
Congratulations!
Amazing
We could use a chain of Proper Human Grocery Stores! PHG's. Proper Human Restaurants PHR's. Proper Human Doctors, etc..
5 months ago my daughters and granddaughter took a girls getaway weekend and I couldn’t go because i knew I was unable to walk and keep up with them. I I’m 63 yes old and don’t want to miss another opportunity to spend time with my family. After crying and feeling sorry for myself I opened TH-cam and started searching. I’ve lost 38 lbs already and my kids are planning all the things we can do together next summer. They are so proud of me. Keto is sustainable it’s a lifestyle not just a diet and I feel better than I have in years.
Congratulations
Bravo Drinda. Thanks for your inspiring story.
You can do this! I'm 63, down 102 pounds and I've been doing this over 2 1/2 years. I'm never going back. This works, I feel great! Keep at it. You're doing the right, long-term thing. Never give up!!!
Glad you found the way !!👋👋🌹🌹
Very proud of you. Intermittent fasting is also a game changer, please try it if you're not already. I was aiming for 10% body fat and I'm now down to around 5%, at 32 years old I'm in the best physical shape of my life.
Love Dr Berry’s attitude of not holding back. He’s such a straight shooter. People need to get “mad as hell and say we’re not gonna take this anymore.” Great interview and information. ❤️❤️❤️
Just a word of caution for us older folks doing keto. I will never forget when I went to urgent care and showed my Medicare card to the receptionist. She looked up at me and rudely said “why are YOU on this?” I literally looked too young.
Good for you! Keep up the good work.
what an awesome compliment!!! ❤
I agree. I'm a single woman 60 years old.
I agree. I'm a woman of 60 years old. The older men don't hit on me. They all think I'm too young. Lol. It's a first. I still think my face looks 60. But I know my body doesn't
With all the red meat, did anyone get gout? Old wives tail?
Keto it's a not a diet, it's our lifestyle now never want to go back!
So far I have loss 206 lbs doing keto still got about 20 more to go
Yes!! And I'm sure by now you have already or are close to it! Good for you!!🙌🏻💕
Just subbed to your channel. 💝💛
Good for you..hang in there!!!!
Incredible! Keep on keeping on!
That is wonderful. Keep up the good work.
Fat... How long did it take to loose that weight ❓🍀
It was so wonderful to hear Dr. Atkins mentioned and how wonderful he was. I remember when I bought his first book in the late 1970's. He was a true pioneer and his reputation has been sullied since his death. This made me really mad. I think he deserves A LOT more credit than he presently gets. It says on Wikipedia that his diet is still considered the most popular FAD DIET in America. Excuse me?! I am so glad to see him being recognized recently with the respect that he deserves.
@Ariesgal55 yes!!! 👏
Wish the keto “influencers” knew what they were talking about. Keto doesn’t involve foods labeled KETO. Dr Westman’s page 4 works.
Exactly! Any company can slap a "keto" label on their product. It means nothing! The word "keto" is not regulated, and so anyone can make claims without any proof. Better to read labels for yourself, and know what a carbohydrate is. And better yet, eat as few packaged products as possible!
"If it has an ingredient list, that's a product, not food." I love that !! So well said !!
TRUE.
Love you both, you’ve changed my life. I started Keto in March 2018, lost 123 lbs., A1C now 5.28 down from 9.45, off all Metformin, cured my excema, more energy than when I was in my 20’s, inflammation gone, arthritis much better, clear thinking, I turned 70 in July 2020.
Congratulations on your wonderful results!
Amazing! :) well done!
Please give credit to Dr. Atkins. No one acknowledges him. He was out there on his own for decades, being vilified. Now, so many use concepts from hos books and pass it off as theirs.
EDIT: I wrote this comment before completing the video, so I didn't rralise credit was goven to Dr. Atkins during the interview. Kudos 👍
Yes I followed Dr Atkins keto diet in the 90s
OH MY GOSH, I LOVE Dr Berry!!!!! He's amazing and a free thinker. I'm a pharmacist and I wish I knew more physicians like him!!!! ❤️👍🏻
I went to my Primary Care Dr. on Oct. 7, told him I had started Keto the end of Sept, and had lost about 15 lbs. He said "I have heard a lot, and that's great. If it works for you, keep it up"! I love my PCP.
My doc is the same. I went in 40lbs lighter and told him I’m on extended fasting and Keto. He said keep doing whatever you are doing.
My dr. Sent me to a nutritionist and she was not keto friendly at all. I felt kind of depressed after I saw her and took me a few days to get over it.
@@sickofsnow1506 You just do what you know is working for you. If no bloodwork has been done ask your Dr. to do so for proof this is working for you.

I started KETO at 5'6" and 270 pounds. I did KETO for about a year and stalled at 232 pounds. I then discovered Intermittent fasting in September 2021. I am at 171 pounds and still losing, A1C at 5.5, and tapering off diabetes meds. Thank you Drs. Berry, Westerman, Jsaon Fung, and the lovely Neisha.
When I weighed 232 I looked great! I’m also big boned I’ve seen some people look terrible at 220 gut hanging everywhere posture out of alignment I guess it depends on a persons body!
Did you get any taller?
The problem with telling people who are carb addicted they can have a little sugar is analogous to telling an alcoholic they can have a little alcohol.
If we are addicts, it is our responsibility to know that we can not moderate.
I struggle everyday as carb creep is just like when I was fooling my self with just one glass if wine . I am and will always be an addict to sugar, carbs & alcohol. I want to continue to live as well as I can with the years I have left . I am 73 and lost 70 lbs after my quadruple bypass surgery. I feel good and am in the process of educating my new young doctor, slowly and politely ..
100%. Sugar and alcohol break down exactly the same in the body. Sugar is a DRUG.
The keto way of eating has changed my life at age 63- lost 90 pounds, improved glucose levels, was able to stop blood pressure meds. I feel better than when in my 40s.
Wow! That's awesome. How long did it take you?
@@carolgeorge7896 the first 75 pounds came off in 11 months then the next 15 came off in the next 11 months, so 22 months total
@@pamelap.123 I hear you! Carbs make me feel like crap
Age 62 and just starting....thanks for the inspiration!!
Never knew about keto until about 3 months ago from TH-cam.Since then I have been on low carb and lost 20 lbs. Awesome diet plan. Mike from Vancouver, Canada
I followed my various primary, specialist DRS advice and went up to 320lbs, thankfully found Dr Bergs video on intermittent fasting & keto, now following Dr Berry , I’ve been type 2 free since 2018 & kept my weight below 280 while my body continues to heal from the 30 years of eating bad advice
Dr Atkins was a giant and a true hero! He doesn't get nearly enough credit. His 2002 book is excellent! After Dr Atkins died his company was bought out and the new company messed up the diet. I still follow the old Atkins Diet, his latest book in 2002 which he updated to counting net carbs. It never fails!
What’s the difference between Atkinsold diet and the changed new one?
@@AnythingGoals The new Atkins version allows higher carb limits, even in the initial Induction Phase, that won't put most people into ketosis, so the weight loss is slower. I bought the 2002 book, "Dr Atkins New Diet Revolution" and I highly recommend reading that book, so then you can compare old and new.
But if you're asking about Keto, there are as many different versions as there are keto gurus, and it's usually much more restrictive and complicated than old Atkins, so a much smaller percentage of people can stick to it and it tends to cause eating disorders in those who are vulnerable to that.
@@photina78 I see thanks. I just started a keto-Carnivore diet, and have been getting insomnia, waking up exhausted and w numb tingly arms, and the keto flu in general! Although my weight hasn’t changed much, I def look thinner. This is all very interesting.. I remember when most people brushed off Atkins as crazy! But now so many are trying without realizing they’re basically doing Atkins!

It helps if you write down all your measurements because you'll see them getting smaller when the pounds aren't dropping.
@@AnythingGoals Dr Berry and Dr Westman call Dr Atkins "the King of Keto." Atkins spent over 40 years perfecting his diet by treating his patients with it, and he really knew his stuff!
During lockdown here in the UK, I stumbled upon Dr. Ken's "skin tag" video. I don't have skin tags so was intrigued as to why it dropped in my feed so I watched it.
Wow, from that time 7/8 months ago my life has totally changed. I've observed pretty much all the benefits in Dr. Ken's vids and can't thank you enough.
You're a true modern hero.
Don’t forget to thank yourself as well. We can have all the information in the world but yet just look around at how few people actually ACT on something. Kudos!
Way to go!!👍👍👍
Syncronicity , well done. We don’t come across these things by accident. Two years ago I lost 30lbs. Just enough to reverse t2D.... and change my life. It’s a way of life. Congratulations and greetings from Ireland 🇮🇪, anna
I was watching an episode of Dr. Pimple Popper with my wife. A person came in with skin tags. The doctor asked about any other conditions. Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (spelling?) . The doctor didn't know how they would be related. I turned to my wife and said, "she has insulin resistance! That causes both skin tags and PCOS. She's probably a type two diabetic. " The doctor looked up the connection, found it to be high insulin and insulin resistance, and found out that the patient had recently stopped taking her metformin for her PCOS or type two diabetes.
Dr Westman was my intro to keto. I switched to carnivore (still a form of keto) i can only say that the improvement has been astounding. Dont believe me? I recommend to anyone that asks me , try it for 30 days. If it doesn't work, move on.
Doctors promote a plant based diet i did it for a year...never again!..nutrient deprived and overweight
I'm 41 and i am in the best health of my life
I don't give two shits what conventional doctors think. They don't know shit about proper human nutrition.
Keto is for life, not just for Christmas. 🤗
From a crazy right now, UK.
TFS & Merry Christmas everybody. 🦃🎅⛄🎄
Years ago I started Keto diet after hearing Dr. Westman. I asked my VA MD in Salisbury, NC if I could go on the diet? He said "no I think it would be too dangerous for you." But, I kept hearing Dr. Westman and decided to go on it. I went from 289 lbs. to 220 in less than 6 months. I then went back to the VA Dr. He was shocked almost didn't recognize me! He was shocked after he looked over my blood profile. He asked me what I did? I told him I went on Dr. Westman's Keto diet. Then, he directed me out to the waiting room and told me to tell all the fat Vets what I did! And I did tell them!! Keep up the great work both of you (Dr. Berry might watch your language a little on the podcast). I love you both!
My dog's vet told me not to feed my dog meat and greens instead of the expensive dog food for his allergies and when we went back, she was shocked at how slim and healthy my dog was. She asked if I had to exercise him a lot and what I did. I told her I put him on the diet you told me not to. 😏
@Susan Hartwig Great testimony! Good for you!
Dr. B. I would never have listened to anyone in the media concerning Keto. I would never believe the media. I had to bump into you on TH-cam and start listening to someone who actually made sense to me to get started. I got my A1C yesterday and it is down to 5.6. I stopped taking blood pressure meds and found out w/o meds I have normal bp or even low bp. Would I tell anyone NOT to follow their Doctors advice on the food pyramid? You bet I would. It happened to me. This bad education needs to end. Who eats boxed cereal with milk and OJ for breakfast every day? Millions of people do.
Boxed cereal - made of grains, grains break straight down into SUGAR.
Milk - full of SUGAR so as to grow babies as fast as possible. Never meant for adults.
OJ - full of the SUGAR fructose, which is converted into triglycerides and stored as body fat.
SUGAR, SUGAR, SUGAR. Crazy.
I reversed my diabetes doing a healthy low carb diet. I’m never going back
I lost 56 pounds in four months on keto. I’m feeling the carb creep slightly, but I’ll prevail! Thanks to Dr. Berry and Dr. Westman for all you do.
Unfortunely most vegan docs, nutritionists/dieticians still think fat and meat is the problem not sugar and carbs.
@R2 D2 here's what I think is happening and I listen to another great proponent to keto and from what I understand and the way he explained it was that fats especially when mixed carbs and sugars in other words he used to say things like the worst thing to eat is Chinese food like sweet and sour pork where they put sugars in with meat you end up with something that becomes a glycated or produced produces glycation which is actually the reason for lesions inside the arteries and Alzheimer's so I think what it is is the mixing of fats with carbs that is the big poisoner I think fat alone is very safe I have asked that same question that you have many times and it comes back to their safe alone but not mixed with anything else I'm pretty sure look up Dr Eric Berg he is the dude the go-to man
@R2 D2 Make sure you eat the right fats, avoid the seed oils. They wreck havoc on me.
@R2 D2 mh, curious. What exactly do you eat? Just hard to believe meat and data caused it, but I also don't fully understand the entire physiology, and everyone reacts differently to everything as well. ^^
@R2 D2 I don’t see enough people admitting both extremes of the spectrums, from vegetarian to carnivore, can provide substantial benefit. There’s a ton of research that suggests a high degree of benefits from either style are from what is removed rather than the diet itself. Being strict on not consuming junk is the real step one, which most people never fully complete before making judgments one way or the other. Also, extremists on each side who have not tried the opposite extreme and are not seeking the truth, become loyal to their team and just hate on the opposing side.
I’m a truth seeker. I’ve spent years I’d my life plant based, highly strict at times and very loose at other times. After trying carnivore out of pure curiosity, the benefits after only one month have been shocking. I’m not fully sold on something like this long term, but sticking with it for now.
The point is - people need to TRY and confirm before concluding and judging. We are complex humans and clearly a lot of this diet stuff is not even close to being fully understood. Take the shortcut, try it and do what makes you feel best. Get bloodwork, check your vitals, etc. Good luck to all
@R2 D2 Don't mix meat with potatoes. Don't mix fat and carbs. Either go keto, or go vegan, but don't mix the two. That's your problem.
I have been so blessed with the Keto lifestyle! In almost 21 months, I've lost 110 lbs, am officially off ALL prescription meds (statin, levothyroxine, and pain meds), AND my sleep apnea has been resolved and I no longer need to use a CPAP! I feel wonderful and alive again! I will be 68 years young next month!
Congratulations on your hard work and success! I am very happy for you.
@@Jayne_Rose Thank you!
@@Jayne_Rose Brilliant job. Well done.. 👍👍👍
@@maxfactorone I don't understand.
@@Jayne_Rose Sorry the comment was meant to be for Julie Elmore
Thank you, Dr. Westman for telling us that you can't eat an unlimited amount of fat and still lose weight. A lot of people don't know this!
