We didn't know anything until my 12 years old daughter was sent into ICU this Aug. because of ketoacidosis. It's horrible experience for our family. After we went back from hospital, she started her daily life of injecting insulin. About one month of her using insulin, she began keto diet. At the beginning, she ate 3 times a day. Bit by bit, she eats 2 times a day. Now she has stopped using insulin daytime and night time usage for over one month, her blood sugar is below 120 most of time. In the following, my daughter will try fasting more long time to hope to let her insulin cells recover. By the way, she rides bicycle 10km and fast running 1 or 2 miles and practices volleyball over 1 hour every day. Eating nutritional yeast and electrolyte everyday. Any further development of her I will go to share with you. I hope more type1 diabetes people know they can live a better and healthier life. Thanks Dr. Berg. If we haven't met you, I don't know how tough life my lovely daughter would have. Appreciated.
What an inspiring story. Thanks for sharing. When I was diagnosed in 1998, aged 15, I would have killed for this information. Hopefully, I can reverse all the damage now, after medical professionals telling me for years to favour high carbohydrate diets.
Hi, my 10yr old nephew was in ICU last week bz of high sugars, she had 550, currently doctors are diagonising her, but her recovery is zero as she is completely dependent on external insulin. Now bz I use Apple cider vinegar to control my mom's type 2 diabetes, (haven't seen the video so eager to ask), bz doctor has avoided anything except wht they hv recommended, can you help me by letting me know whether YOU HAVE USED APPLE CIDER VINEGAR to recover....It would really help us and giv us the hope
@@lifetech4146 Apple cider vinegar won't treat or cure type 1 diabetes, & all humans require insulin to live, even non-diabetics. However, following a low carb, high fat diet will significantly decrease the amount of insulin needed, but for type 1 diabetics, careful monitoring is needed whilst eating a ketogenic diet. During the presence of high blood sugar and high ketones, the pH of the blood will become too acidic, causing ketoacidosis. This is a medical emergency, & it nearly killed me in 2019. If blood glucose is at a safe level but the blood contains ketones, it just means that your body is in ketosis & it is nothing to worry about. But please, please don't advise insulin dependent people to swap their insulin injections for apple cider vinegar, as this is dangerous advice. Hope this helps.
@@jenny395791 Thanks for the help.. I now learnt that we shldnt be too quick to advice without experience and expertise..thks a lot But will it be any issue if we use ACV, to increase the sensitivity of insulin thereby reducing the it's quantity.
@@lifetech4146 ACV has some great benefits, & according to Google, it can help naturally lower blood sugar, but my advice to you is that all diabetics should not miss any of their diabetes medication whilst using ACV, until they are confident enough to slowly & safely reduce the amount of their medication. This will require regular blood glucose checks throughout the day, every day to make sure that the glucose levels are at a normal level. So the takeaway from my message is, prioritise blood sugar readings over anything else. I learnt the hard way unfortunately, but hopefully my experience of high blood sugar can help others 😊
I am from India. My ancestors used to say "Never eat after sunset". Modern people here call it superstitious but what my ancestors meant was "Never eat too late and have good gap between dinner and your sleep". Here in India, the sunset occurs between 6.00 p.m - 7.00 p.m. depending upon season. Btw, a very nice and informative video. Awaiting for more videos.
I am very grateful to you Dr Berg as type 1 and was in a lot of trouble over 9 months ago I found your channel and learnt from your channel about keto and intermittent fasting. My diabetes and blood sugar is under control now . My health is great now and losing weight also . The best thing is I don't have use insulin. OMAD 8 cups of veggies and salad, 220 grams of meat and some nuts less then 20 grams of carbs a day . Thank you . God Bless
Maybe you would enjoy this salad shake recipe: 7 ounces mixed greens, 8 ounces of plain Kefir, 2 tablespoons of cocoa powder, 1 teaspoon of monk fruit, 3 tablespoons of grass fed collagen (optional), enough water to start blending process, couple of handful of ice. It is refreshing and restores your potassium levels making you feel great.
My husband became Type 1 Diabetic at 39... This does not run in his family and they contributed it to severe food poisoning, which he did have prior to his diagnosis. I see him everyday struggle to keep it all balanced. He is now 54. It is real tough. Thank you for this GREAT VIDEO.
Type 1 also, plus a multitude of other autoimmune illnesses since that diagnosis (diagnosed at 13). I've been experimenting with keto for years. I'd always thought that I felt better eating meat and vegetables before I'd even heard of keto. I'd heard of the carnivore diet (meat, eggs, butter etc.) but disregarded it. Thought they were extreme and unnecessary for myself. Cooked roast beef, wasn't hungry so didn't do anything else, just cut off some beef and ate some around lunch time. Was satiated ALL day, full of energy, cognition was improved and thought hmm interesting (I also recalled Jordan Peterston and his daughter living on beef and lamb). Intrigued, I looked into the carnivore diet. Came across some advocates, Dr Philip Ovadia (heart surgeon), Dr Anthony Chaffee (neurosurgeon), Dr Ken Berry (GP), Professor Bart Kay (who left his career lecturing in university because what he'd found didn't line up with the agenda being pushed). Judy Cho (not a doctor but nutritionist) she is all about the evidence. Let me tell you my mind was blown. I realised why I'd felt so sick after eating a lot of vegetables and almonds n all that. I felt better on keto, definitely. Nothing compared to carnivore. So after listening to podcasts and lectures by these doctors and others, hearing all these testimonials, I thought I'd try it for 4-6 weeks. I had blood tests at the doctors at the end of the month. Everything indicating inflammation in my body had decreased. My HbA1c decreased by 8 points. My ferratin increased by 20 (I had been anaemic since 2007, had transfusions etc but it didn't change much). My thyroid levels, which had not been in normal range for nearly 3 years, were actually normal!!! I'd tried for 3 years to normalise them with the doctors, never worked yet I had teeth fall out, I had other bad side effects from high vs low thyroid levels. 1 month!! Just 1 month!!! Dr Anthony Chaffee is amazing, his discussions about "Plants are trying to kill you" was a light bulb moment. I've never been this well, even with keto. Please, anybody reading, just look up some of who I've mentioned. My favourites are the neurosurgeon Anthony Chaffee and Judy Cho (nutrition with Judy). I devoured information for a while before I made the leap . It's not a fad diet, we've been lied to more than we realised. Keto is a start. We need more meat (I also had a brain injury, problems concerning neurology, rheumatology, endocrinology, on top of diabetes. I've been through all the departments, it's been hell until now. Please just try it 🙏
Kudos to your guest for his excellent control ! I have been a T1D for 10 years, diagnosed at age 57. I followed the ADA A1C recommendation until a naturopathic doctor told me I needed to get my numbers under a 6, or I would be look at 5% brain shrinkage a year. I went home, researched, mostly in neuro journals, and found this doctor was correct. Quickly I altered my already altered diet, even more, going keto and intermittent fasting and now average an A1C of 5-5.2. Strangely enough, my current functional doctor wants it higher, quoting me the Accord study. I again went home and researched and next visit I told him he quoted me information from a type II diabetic study of overweight, statin using, high BP patients! He had more explanation and while he might be somewhat right, he accepts my disagreement. I have an insulin pump that doses a basal amount every hour, Around 16-17 units in 24 hours. My bolus insulin averages around 6 units a day, mostly due to coffee and some monk fruit. Twice, in the past 24 hours ( we have company) I have been scolded for not eating! I explain that I eat when I am hungry, and I also explain that yes, I have plenty of energy. We are conditioned as a society to eat three meals a day and for diabetics to eat 5 small meals a day.
See the landmark T1 low carb study 5 years ago called the "Grit Study" published in Pediatrics which won awards...Over 300 T1s used low carb and achieved normal blood glucose.
Thank you for posting this. My 9 year old was diagnosed last August and we went low carb within weeks. He's been honeymooning and completely off insulin since mid September (it's late March now). BG in the 80's-90's. A1C went from 11+ to 5.3.
@@Drberg What do you think about the recent article out by TheEpochTimes stating "Sugar Is Crucial for Immunity: 2 Kinds Boost Immunity and Help You Live Longer" ???
With MY situation ( I have Type 2 ), I had not gone to a doctor. So, I had diabetes for several years before I ended up almost dying . What MY Type 2 did (was not throw me into Type 1 )………but it went over to my liver causing me to get non-alcoholic cirrhosis of my liver. Et voila’, this was how I lived until discovering Dr. Berg and taking control of my two diseases, instead of them controlling me. ❤️
Hi. " bravo"! I wish my mum could do the same...I saw a previous post where you didn't know when reduce your insulin one year ago? How did you do please? My mum takes so much pills for BP, metformin, she is used to fasting but she can not stop carbohydrates and bread thinking her sugar will drop... did you completely stop sugar? Donyou have hypoglycemy with keto diet and insulin?
Excellent interview! Very inspiring for myself as a type one diabetic for 25 years. It shows we can always learn and grow, the tighter the carbs the lower the insulin. That being said it’s important that it’s know and said- insulin is necessary and life saving for type one diabetics. We need long acting insulin to survive.
Great video that all type 1s need to hear. Type 1 here for 24 years. I started keto 3 years ago then went lazy carnivore. I was taking 107 units of insulin a day and am now down to 16 units a day.
This is an encouraging interview. But I would still love to see an a person with the autoimmune form of T1D be interviewed by you Dr. Berg. I am also very interested in hearing if taking stem cells and pancreatic glandular could actually reverse the autoimmune form of T1D. ...for my child's sake this matters a great deal to me. Please make a video on this if you can Dr. Berg. Keto is already helping her TREMENDOUSLY! Many thanks!
Congrats to you and your daughter for doing Keto! As a researcher and a fellow T1D (autoimmune), I would suggest being cautious with stem cell transplants. They are done outside of the US for other disorders but I have not heard of a successful approach with T1D. Yet. And any cell transplant for a healthy child would have to as close to risk-free as possible. Is your daughter recently diagnosed? If so, there are different interventions that parents are trying (outside of diet), with some success. Personally, I've had success with alpha lipoic acid (ALA) to lower insulin needs, and with enzymes to digest certain foods better. Straight pancreatin didn't seem to help me, but it may be different for a child or newly diagnosed T1d.
Thanks for sharing your story I will tell you something, my son was diagnosed at age 7 he got ill all of a sudden and then got diabetes. Diabetes is not a mistery for us but only type 2 diabetes ran in the family. My father my grandfather and grandmother and uncles, my aunties etc. My father was a nurse so I knew how to prevent and handle it. My son at age 7 graduated from Memphis diabetes auto care and it is like a miracle he does everything on his own. Now to the interesting story, I am diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis another autoimmune disease, my mother with reumathoid arthritis, my sister with chronic inflamation too. I was in bed for a long time with my MS, I watched your channel and learned about vitamin D and K2 and added that to my list of vitamins and supplements including Alpha L acid, Turmeric, Cod Liver Oil, quercetin, niagen and removed bad carbs from my diet. I also went to Honduras and got two BCG vaccine shots which reinforced my immune system and now I am free of MS symptoms. I think the BCG vaccine resets the immune system for diabetes type 1 patients and autoimmune issues. Main point is all of these diseases feed on carbs and bad nutrition using oils that will cause inflammation just use olive oil or avocado oil. Take suplements that are anti-inflammatory and you will keep these diseases at bay for a longer time. God bless you all and thanks for sharing Manuel's story I can show it to my son he is now 13. Vyacite is almost finished with their project for diabetes type 1 this is the Ultimate Solution for a substitute pancreas medical device that will provide a normal life for diabetes patients.
I'm a type 1 diabetic, 37 years old, had it since I was 14 and I've been poisoning myself with insulin. This is an eye opener. Not that I hadn't noticed all this by myself for a long time, but the doctors were silent and so was I cause hey, it was convenient for me too, load up on insulin and eat what I want. But at what cost? A lot. Thanks ever so much for this video. Before Obamacare and without insurance 600 usd for a single vial if insulin sounds insane to me. I live in Bangladesh where it is much, much cheaper. Still high though not gonna lie. So it will help a lot to cut down on it financially as well. Dr. Berg listening to you from halfway around the world. Thanks a lot, I will go for the Omad diet from now on.
An excellent conversation on this topic. I am not diabetic, but my Dad was. That did not end well. (understatement) I adopted keto and omad, thanks to Dr. Berg, about 3 years ago now. I lost 50 pounds (1/4 of my body weight at the time), and my health has improved dramatically. The headaches, hip joint pain (excruciating) vanished, and the ravenous continuous hunger simply disappeared. I think this last symptom is the one creating the greatest barrier for the average person to grasp. They literally don't believe me when I try share the info with them.
My brother was a diabetic and it was from drinking for years, but he quit unfortunately the pancreas was shot by that time. He had cysts on his pancreas the size of oranges. He was at deaths door. He had already stopped alcohol for 1 year but the damage was done. 6 months later he was diagnosed with diabetes. Than the craziness started. To make a long story short he was on the roller coaster. Insulin not enough, foods not regulated . Felt great didn’t feel great and lost his short term memory. Had To go into a living assistants. Sad he got pneumonia and passed at 49. So many unknowns complications. I use to tell him not to eat any sugar but people don’t relate bread etc.with sugar. Dr. Berg is a life sent god sent!!! My brothers not here but through Dr. Berg I’ve learned a lot! And I’ve been into nutrition for years. The guest was saying his blood spiked from steak but is it a grain fed steak or grass fed? I think I needed to watch this because it puts me on a better track. We should remember our bodies are a temple and we need to treat our bodies with respect, love, and grace. I worry about my younger son. I know he loves sugar but I have to remind him and he was raised by me so I did try to teach him about nutrition. The alcohol and soda and candy and all these non nutritional snacks that fill our grocery store shelves.
This is very exciting to Dr.Berg getting specific on Type 1 Diabetic advice. I understand why, but hardly anyone will touch this subject. Very grateful. Thank you and please, keep the type 1 specific content coming.
Very interesting, thank you! Manuel, do you have content in Spanish? I live in Mexico and am constantly translating for others who are trying to follow a fasting lifestyle, but haven't found a good resource I can point them to for getting information themselves.
Thanks Dr berg for talking bout type 1. I've been type 1 for 47 years and it's been rough at times but since I found your channel and started keto and IF I way more healthy then I've ever been. What this guy is saying is true. Most days I eat OMAD as long as blood sugar is good and the less food and strict keto I feel so much better and have so much more energy. I dont know who thought we need 3 meals plus snacks to live but that's not true. I've been able to lose over 80 pounds and lower my insulin from almost 100 units down to 38 units. I'm hoping to get it even lower. One serious question dr berg what in your opinion the best healthy insulin to use if there is such a thing. Im on novolin N and R and would like one more natural. I've researched it but can't seem to find one. When I was first diagnosed I was taking insulin made from pig pancreas. So can you please tell me the best insulin. Thanks for this video and I hope you do more on TYPE 1 DIABETES.
All insulin today is made from bacteria. That's why you should refrigerate it. Only God can give you natural insulin. And the government took that away.
You are where I was trying to game the system. Trying to test how much of my old life I could hang onto. Testing boundaries. After listening to you today I’m going to embrace the foods that make me feel great and keep me motivated. Thank you.
This is so true, I have 3 type 1 children, keto diet really help their bgl with less insulin, but my younger 2 is still a struggle, they love to eat some carbs so we will get there. But Keto does work. Thank you Dr Berg
(T1 diabetic), few years ago I tried fasting from sunrise to sunset as Islamic fasting, it tremendously lowered my sugar levels, felt energetic and ofc reduced lantus from 20 to 8 units and 6 units of novorapid , felt more full and energetic but was on a low carb not keto and also 30 minutes walking everyday after eating
Thank you Dr. Berg you’re the best as usual. I have a question I’m doing OMAD KETO for 6 months now I have a sweet taste always in my tongue what the reason? Is it good or bad? What to do to get rid of it? Thanks 🙏
Great interview! I definitely recommend the Berg’s electrolyte powder. It’s a must with OMAD and keto. I feel much better since including this. Thanks again! Peace and blessings 🙏
Gave Dr Berg’s sports version to my bodybuilder son after I heard him complaining about moodiness… he called the next day to mention how great he feels. He is non-keto but he sees my response to keto/IF after only 100 days and is asking the right questions now. The product is a great solution to ‘keto flu’
Hi Dr.Berg, i'm a converted type2 to type1 and doing everything i can do to be healthy. I'm eating twice a day my last meal by 3:30pm or 4pm. I hv to use 20 units per meal to bring my glucose dn correctly. My #'s are still, between 180 to 200+ even w the insulin after eating. I'm working on limiting all carbs and cutting out all sugar. I started exercising again, and it's helping restore some of my energy. I believe, in about 3 to 6 months of eating rt and working out my health/ energy will be restored. I hv been following most of your videos on eating/health tips. You help me more than any doctor i've seen. Hopefully, i can use less insulin in the future and improve my overall health. Pls, keep doing the info. videos on diabetes and how to improve this awful condition. This video was infornative and helpful. Thxu,..for all you do i appreciate your products and advice. Shalom.
Eating earlier to align with the circadian rhythms is what I strive to do! I don’t know if what I’m attempting to do currently could be considered OMAD, but it was pretty helpful with digestion the day before, after a 48 hour fast. Post bile salts, I replaced those with ginger and fennel seed and on my first office break of the day (after the 48 hour fast) I have these with some butter to get my juices flowing. Then two hours later I begin lunch (I do all of this at work), and lunch would usually be my OMAD for the day. It gave me such incredible results! I felt the body go after the fat and give my brain and the rest of me energy and it was even easier to concentrate at work! I was only going to do this yesterday but the results were so amazing that I decided to try it again today, but this time I’m adding some sauerkraut and some sea salt to the mix. The practice of priming my gut for proper digestion before lunch may be what I do regularly going forward! Thanks to your advice on what to eat, how much and when, of course. Thanks to you and your guest, you guys are awesome!
Loving everything keto related. Keep up the good work. I have lost 2 stone now and still going. I also take supplements, I take electrolytes, collagen, organic turmeric and pepper, Organic Chlorella & Spirulina (meant to be a great source of protein) , Cod liver oil. I have problems with my knees since I fell and suffered ligament damage. So I take supplements which should help with that. I have Kefir in my diet. I eat organic food whenever possible. I drink only water between the one meal I eat per day and practice intermittent fasting. I have watched a ton of your videos Dr Berg. You have helped me to remain focused, or boost my focus when it starts to fade. I don't have food in the house that I shouldn't eat and that makes it very easy to stick to my diet. I also find it easy to stick to my diet if I go out for a Sunday dinner with my family. I'm feeling a lot better in myself. I am sleeping better and everyone tells me how well I am looking. I also feel less stressed, I don't know if its diet related or a coincidence. But its something I am happy about. Thank you Dr Berg for all my initial information on Healthy Keto. Many many thanks
I would love to hear from a type 1 insulin dependent diabetic woman on adjusting her insulin levels each month due to hormones. That's my biggest trouble with keto. Without hormones, my basals would always be the same and more dependable.
Great vid. I’ve been type 1 for 43 years ( possibly due to a seizure from a high fever at age 3.) I have had 3 transient ischemic strokes and I am currently struggling to maintain control of my sugars. I take 1.35 units of humalog per hour through my pump. I generally eat less than 150 grams of carbs per day, and I survive on egg whites and rotisserie chicken.
Thank you Dr Berg so much for all you do for all of us. We are grateful to you and all of the wonderful information you provide us with. Manuel Suarez - Thank you.
Hi Dr Berg, My partner was diagnosed with stage IV adenocarcinoma esophageal cancer. He developed type 1 from his chemotherapy cocktail. He is 75 and started insulin. It has also affected his thyroid, lungs, throat in what appears to be an autoimmune response. This is most interesting video. He did High dose VIt C IV and LDN for his cancer as well and it is gone after 3 chemo treatments and his MD is amazed. Now he has this other problem.
This was great! I don't know how I missed this episode 7 months ago. Thank you Dr. Berg for sharing this interview! I've been wondering how to do Keto and IF being type 1 and this helped tremendously.
This is honestly helpful information. I was diagnosed when I was 7 years old been into dka 13 times and lead to comas I am 32 and sadly it took me til I was 30 to get it all together. I eliminated the carbs ( bagels, breads, cookies etc ) and mainly focus on veggies and fruits and my sugars have drastically improved the norm for me was 500’s sometimes beyond 600 but now I’m around 109-135 ish but me being human when I slip up and have heavy carbs I see the spikes especially for dinner I use to wake up with high sugars. Also I am on a insulin pump but my goal is to one day not have to take insulin.
this reminds me of so many years ago when I quit smoking cigarettes. it took this very same path to stop. and why I refused the opioids during my surgery recovery.... the 2 to 3 week breakthrough followed by the ever popping up of desire to smoke JUST one. the human mind is so manipulative and our society started us down the bad habit path 100years ago. now, after 2 years on keto...i STILL catch myself looking at a Boston Cream donut!!!!!!!
@@Oldschoolways168 of course i do! and I HOPE you are talking about the donnut and not the cig, right???? BTW...i am a cook and I learned how to do keto very well, once I learned to stock correctly and to experiment endlessly. but I still make great non-keto, like my ridiculously bad lime pie yesterday!!!!!!!
My husband is severe type 1. Can't regulate, eats lots of sugar, junk. Is a painting contractor who works excessively hard and long days. works like he's healthy but has glaucoma, neuropathy, muscle cramps nearly every day. He's listening to this and saying "but I need food/fuel to be able to work. I pray he will at least try to start with 3 healthy meals and see if we can work him into 1 meal later. Thank you to Dr Berg and to Manuel for sharing!
Thank you Dr. Berg. Could you please create a video about the pancreas, how to know if you have problems, how to keep it healthy, and what to do if you get pancreatic cancer?
If your blood sugar drops down to 40, you can’t have protein and hope it will fix it. You have to have sugar ASAP with very little fat to instantly bring it back.
with sufficient insulin protein contributes verry little for blood sugar, however with insulin deficiency, gluconeogenesis proceeds rapidly and contributes to an elevated blood glucose level. Also, protein triggers glucagon so if you have some protein with every meal your blood sugars will remain more stable.
Manuel was great. For myself as the Mother of an adult with 21 years as a T1D... I need to hear from someone with an auto-immune Type 1 diabetes; bc I heard a couple times where Manuel & Dr. Berg mentioned "his/my insulin". Since there is "no" insulin produced for those for a T1 with an auto-immunity condition.
Wow! That's amazing ,his story is much like mine. I'm down to 2 shots a day and only doing 1/2 of the insulin I used to. Thank you both for the continued inspiration!
Being a Type 1 diabetic, my understanding is that my body produces insulin, but the “Islets of Longhorn” do not secrete my insulin to the blood cells. Now, I have to pump animal insulin into my fat cells. I’ve been IF and lightweight keto for 4 years now, it’s critical to maintain a better A1C. Part II: I agree with Manuel’s theory though, you may not be fully Type 1 for some reason. I say that because you’re on Intensive therapy with Lantus for basal and Humalog/Novalog for bolus. 5U a day with OMAD? I’m not confident that’s realistic and I’m super skeptical… I’ve done that with my pump and I still have 30U a day of Lyumjev for OMAD..
I had someone ask me about what insulin dependant people would do in an shtf situation. My response was that they would be basically like everyone else, until their insulin ran out, whether by spoiling or just running out. Then they die. This was shocking to the person and asked what could be done. I explained that their best bet was to start eating correctly now and get into the daily habit of eating the right foods and basically everything else this video describes. Absolutely minimize the amount of insulin they need even while they have it available because this will help them live better and longer anyway.
What he is describing about thinking he was type 2 for a few yrs before his diagnosis of type 1 is what Endocrinologists call the "honeymoon period". It the time when the body/pancreas is producing less and less insulin. Same thing happened to my son at age 10
great video, i'm glad he included some info at the end about exactly what he eats for that one meal a day. i'm not diabetic but i do omad most days and have been for a couple of years now. everyone of course thinks i'm crazy. aside from channels like yours it's impossible to get support from the people around me :(
Dr. Eric Berg DC I'd like to tell you how my type 1 diabetes was cured by happenings of circumstance and the information I found as to the reasons why. Also...how the medical system is dealing with my experience and findings. How do I go about having a conversation with you.
@@TheNaomix4 In short...STOP taking the insulin and stay on a veggie low carb diet to avoid the side effects of high blood sugars. Your pancreas will start working again in 3-4 days.
Great to see the genius marketing guru who helped Dr Berg become the internet sensation that he is, getting the genius level wellness help from Dr Berg! You both are amazingly talented people who inspire me. Thank you for both for sharing this. This will definitely help thousands of people who need to know this
Gurus are bad 'Coz people follow them blindly. Dr Berg is a huge source of knowledge and interesting stuff. I like his stuff. But don't take it for granted.' ;)
@Sally Matsukawa sure I don't say the opposite :) but he always implies keto answers everything, which is not. But sure for an American population it can solve a lot considering all the sh*tty products they have there.
@@mhpjii Dr Berg is amazing and my comment wasn’t to reduce him in any way. His marketing guy is phenomenal I just wanted to point out and Dr Berg, like all of us in the natural health space, are really fortunate when we pair our talents with the right people who can get our message out to everyone.
I have had Type 1 for over 40 years after taking the experimental mumps booster in the late 70s. I take on average 15 units a day. I couldn't do without carbs.
Hi Dr Berg I love your videos! Are the ones on Facebook on your channel here also? On some of those where you mention there is a link in the description, I am not seeing the link referenced anywhere. Thank you for all the great info you give us viewers! I discovered your channel 2 years ago and it has been such help for me. Bless you!!

My wife recently became T1 earlier this year at 25yo. Staying away from carbs is legit as a T1D! My wife only takes 6 units of long acting and maybe 2-4 units of short acting a day depending on the food. We also found out that by simply drinking water, and moving immediately after taking insulin, the insulin is significantly more efficient and requires less insulin when coupled with those things.
My wife became type 1 last year (31 years old) before the vaccine her a1c was 4.9 everything was fine, 3 month after the shot her glucose level was over 500
Dr. Berg, can you please advise me, my son was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes at age 7, he’s now 13 years old, we were told that he needs to eat carbohydrates because his body and brain are still developing, so he eats carbohydrates and we give him insulin, please, please advise on this condition for teens, thank you!!!!💖
Hello. I'm not sure where to put my request but can you do a video about estrogen and progesterone. How the hormones affect a woman's body and men too (if so), when it comes to keeping them balanced. How they help keep weight balanced, etc etc. Thank you
Dr Berg and Manual … Thank you! My son is 40 and has been Type 1 since he was 12. I’ve disgusted IF and keto with him. The concern is getting into ketosis. My guess is, a Type 1 does not push to get into ketosis as a person without diabetes?
I'm a type 1 diabetic for 12 years now, I use around 20 to 30 unites a day, and would love to reduce my insulin intake, but how to avoid losing weight in the process, as I can't risk losing any weight?
My average daily insulin was 76 total units 10 years ago. Yesterday I injected a total of 10 units Lantus and 4 of fast acting. I eat 2 meals a day and less than 20 carbs. I follow Dr. Bernstein so I eat very low carb, moderate fat and high protein. Check out Dr. Bernstein’s Diabetes Solution. TD1 for 50 years and feeling great.
Dr Berg, Manuel spoke about 25 units of long acting and 40 units of fast acting per day before Keto. After Keto Manuel mentioned that he is using 5 units of insulin. Is this both long acting and fast acting combined. I believe Keto helps in reducing the fast acting insulin usages. Manuel how are you able to reduce the long acting insulin levels. What is the usage of long acting insulin before and after Keto. Can you please explain.
Thank you Dr. Berg for addressing this! I am type 1 and have noticed many of the increased insulin sensitivity results Manuel mentions here when I am in keto. I should really be in keto more often!
We owe a great debt of gratitude to you, Dr. Berg. For all the good you do for others, may many blessings be showered upon you. Take care, everyone! ✨ Xo Heather Thrills
Hello Dr Berg . I have been doing keto for 2 years thanks to you 😊. Actually my daughter who is 8 years old now is diabetic type 1 since she is 4. I wanted to introduce low carb diet to her but failed because I am afraid of ketones , you know what I mean for diabetic type 1 ketones in blood or urine is bad , we need to take them urgently to hospital . So I don’t understand how he can do intermittent fasting and keto since since he is diabetic type 1 . Can you help ? I am from France ( French speaking ) . She is taking actually 8-12-12 for rapid for each meal and 22 for latent insuline and gained too much weight
You get some fingerstick glucometers that can also measure your ketones, you just need different strips. If you get one of these machines you can prevent yourself from going into ketoacidosis.
Unfortunately my 2 and half years niece is type 1 diabetic. Can a small kid can follow keto and IF as well? Please help sir. I am always grateful to Almighty that He send you in my life as a savior . Cause i was obese and was suffering pcod and pre diabetic . Thanks for changing my life Dr. Berg🙏❤️
Thanks a lot Dr Berg I think I stay developed diabet tip 2 my mother is diabetics tip 2 and I stay thinking how I can treat or meybe help me stoped this process.Thamk so much for recomandation or how I can do in this case.
Hey Dr.Berg I'm not a doctor or scientist but I've have understanding of diabetes we may have a breakthrough my friend had a fatty liver which lead to his diabetes now he's in remission now is their any revelation tied to fatty liver and diabetes..
I got my answer here. " The only way I can control my blood sugar since I do not take insulin is by '''''''staying off all carbs."'''' 6 weeks on KETO and it has been pure hell but I have been noticing changes for the better. Yet, I know this body is not out of the red yet. What a incredible adventure! I think I deserve a treat: Broccoli sprouts come to my mind and some lemon water and I might add a spoonful of MTC oil...
Good point on 🍖. But meat also have some critical minerals, aminoacids the body needs and plants does not have in quality. Maybe plant oils on the cook can impact the sugar levels...good interview. Mexican outstanding english
We didn't know anything until my 12 years old daughter was sent into ICU this Aug. because of ketoacidosis. It's horrible experience for our family. After we went back from hospital, she started her daily life of injecting insulin. About one month of her using insulin, she began keto diet. At the beginning, she ate 3 times a day. Bit by bit, she eats 2 times a day. Now she has stopped using insulin daytime and night time usage for over one month, her blood sugar is below 120 most of time. In the following, my daughter will try fasting more long time to hope to let her insulin cells recover. By the way, she rides bicycle 10km and fast running 1 or 2 miles and practices volleyball over 1 hour every day. Eating nutritional yeast and electrolyte everyday. Any further development of her I will go to share with you. I hope more type1 diabetes people know they can live a better and healthier life. Thanks Dr. Berg. If we haven't met you, I don't know how tough life my lovely daughter would have. Appreciated.
What an inspiring story. Thanks for sharing. When I was diagnosed in 1998, aged 15, I would have killed for this information. Hopefully, I can reverse all the damage now, after medical professionals telling me for years to favour high carbohydrate diets.
Hi, my 10yr old nephew was in ICU last week bz of high sugars, she had 550, currently doctors are diagonising her, but her recovery is zero as she is completely dependent on external insulin.
Now bz I use Apple cider vinegar to control my mom's type 2 diabetes, (haven't seen the video so eager to ask), bz doctor has avoided anything except wht they hv recommended, can you help me by letting me know whether YOU HAVE USED APPLE CIDER VINEGAR to recover....It would really help us and giv us the hope
@@lifetech4146 Apple cider vinegar won't treat or cure type 1 diabetes, & all humans require insulin to live, even non-diabetics.
However, following a low carb, high fat diet will significantly decrease the amount of insulin needed, but for type 1 diabetics, careful monitoring is needed whilst eating a ketogenic diet.
During the presence of high blood sugar and high ketones, the pH of the blood will become too acidic, causing ketoacidosis. This is a medical emergency, & it nearly killed me in 2019.
If blood glucose is at a safe level but the blood contains ketones, it just means that your body is in ketosis & it is nothing to worry about.
But please, please don't advise insulin dependent people to swap their insulin injections for apple cider vinegar, as this is dangerous advice.
Hope this helps.
@@jenny395791 Thanks for the help..
I now learnt that we shldnt be too quick to advice without experience and expertise..thks a lot
But will it be any issue if we use ACV, to increase the sensitivity of insulin thereby reducing the it's quantity.
@@lifetech4146 ACV has some great benefits, & according to Google, it can help naturally lower blood sugar, but my advice to you is that all diabetics should not miss any of their diabetes medication whilst using ACV, until they are confident enough to slowly & safely reduce the amount of their medication. This will require regular blood glucose checks throughout the day, every day to make sure that the glucose levels are at a normal level.
So the takeaway from my message is, prioritise blood sugar readings over anything else. I learnt the hard way unfortunately, but hopefully my experience of high blood sugar can help others 😊
I am from India. My ancestors used to say "Never eat after sunset". Modern people here call it superstitious but what my ancestors meant was "Never eat too late and have good gap between dinner and your sleep". Here in India, the sunset occurs between 6.00 p.m - 7.00 p.m. depending upon season.
Btw, a very nice and informative video. Awaiting for more videos.
Very wise ancestors.

I am very grateful to you Dr Berg as type 1 and was in a lot of trouble over 9 months ago I found your channel and learnt from your channel about keto and intermittent fasting. My diabetes and blood sugar is under control now . My health is great now and losing weight also . The best thing is I don't have use insulin. OMAD 8 cups of veggies and salad, 220 grams of meat and some nuts less then 20 grams of carbs a day . Thank you . God Bless
Awesome! Keep it up!
What source of carbs do you consume?
Maybe you would enjoy this salad shake recipe: 7 ounces mixed greens, 8 ounces of plain Kefir, 2 tablespoons of cocoa powder, 1 teaspoon of monk fruit, 3 tablespoons of grass fed collagen (optional), enough water to start blending process, couple of handful of ice. It is refreshing and restores your potassium levels making you feel great.
May I ask what your levels are?
So u no longer need insulin for Type1?! That’s never heard of wow!! Congrats!
YAYAYAYAYAYAYYYYY!! Thank you for discussing Type ONE!! We are so often left out of diabetes discussion!!!
My husband became Type 1 Diabetic at 39... This does not run in his family and they contributed it to severe food poisoning, which he did have prior to his diagnosis. I see him everyday struggle to keep it all balanced. He is now 54. It is real tough. Thank you for this GREAT VIDEO.
Type 1 also, plus a multitude of other autoimmune illnesses since that diagnosis (diagnosed at 13).
I've been experimenting with keto for years. I'd always thought that I felt better eating meat and vegetables before I'd even heard of keto.
I'd heard of the carnivore diet (meat, eggs, butter etc.) but disregarded it. Thought they were extreme and unnecessary for myself.
Cooked roast beef, wasn't hungry so didn't do anything else, just cut off some beef and ate some around lunch time. Was satiated ALL day, full of energy, cognition was improved and thought hmm interesting (I also recalled Jordan Peterston and his daughter living on beef and lamb). Intrigued, I looked into the carnivore diet. Came across some advocates, Dr Philip Ovadia (heart surgeon), Dr Anthony Chaffee (neurosurgeon), Dr Ken Berry (GP), Professor Bart Kay (who left his career lecturing in university because what he'd found didn't line up with the agenda being pushed). Judy Cho (not a doctor but nutritionist) she is all about the evidence.
Let me tell you my mind was blown. I realised why I'd felt so sick after eating a lot of vegetables and almonds n all that. I felt better on keto, definitely. Nothing compared to carnivore.
So after listening to podcasts and lectures by these doctors and others, hearing all these testimonials, I thought I'd try it for 4-6 weeks.
I had blood tests at the doctors at the end of the month.
Everything indicating inflammation in my body had decreased. My HbA1c decreased by 8 points. My ferratin increased by 20 (I had been anaemic since 2007, had transfusions etc but it didn't change much). My thyroid levels, which had not been in normal range for nearly 3 years, were actually normal!!! I'd tried for 3 years to normalise them with the doctors, never worked yet I had teeth fall out, I had other bad side effects from high vs low thyroid levels.
1 month!! Just 1 month!!!
Dr Anthony Chaffee is amazing, his discussions about "Plants are trying to kill you" was a light bulb moment.
I've never been this well, even with keto.
Please, anybody reading, just look up some of who I've mentioned. My favourites are the neurosurgeon Anthony Chaffee and Judy Cho (nutrition with Judy). I devoured information for a while before I made the leap . It's not a fad diet, we've been lied to more than we realised. Keto is a start. We need more meat (I also had a brain injury, problems concerning neurology, rheumatology, endocrinology, on top of diabetes. I've been through all the departments, it's been hell until now. Please just try it 🙏
Sooooo glad that this information is being shared concerning Type 1.
Kudos to your guest for his excellent control ! I have been a T1D for 10 years, diagnosed at age 57. I followed the ADA A1C recommendation until a naturopathic doctor told me I needed to get my numbers under a 6, or I would be look at 5% brain shrinkage a year. I went home, researched, mostly in neuro journals, and found this doctor was correct. Quickly I altered my already altered diet, even more, going keto and intermittent fasting and now average an A1C of 5-5.2.
Strangely enough, my current functional doctor wants it higher, quoting me the Accord study. I again went home and researched and next visit I told him he quoted me information from a type II diabetic study of overweight, statin using, high BP patients! He had more explanation and while he might be somewhat right, he accepts my disagreement.
I have an insulin pump that doses a basal amount every hour, Around 16-17 units in 24 hours. My bolus insulin averages around 6 units a day, mostly due to coffee and some monk fruit.
Twice, in the past 24 hours ( we have company) I have been scolded for not eating! I explain that I eat when I am hungry, and I also explain that yes, I have plenty of energy.
We are conditioned as a society to eat three meals a day and for diabetics to eat 5 small meals a day.
See the landmark T1 low carb study 5 years ago called the "Grit Study" published in Pediatrics which won awards...Over 300 T1s used low carb and achieved normal blood glucose.
Thank you for posting this. My 9 year old was diagnosed last August and we went low carb within weeks. He's been honeymooning and completely off insulin since mid September (it's late March now). BG in the 80's-90's. A1C went from 11+ to 5.3.
I quit drinking alcohol 2 years ago and I'm feelling great! Sugar it's next. 2 weeks. 14 days without sugar coming up! Thanks Dr. Berg
Awesome. Keep up the good job!
@@Drberg What do you think about the recent article out by TheEpochTimes stating "Sugar Is Crucial for Immunity: 2 Kinds Boost Immunity and Help You Live Longer" ???
With MY situation ( I have Type 2 ), I had not gone to a doctor. So, I had diabetes for several years before I ended up almost dying . What MY Type 2 did (was not throw me into Type 1 )………but it went over to my liver causing me to get non-alcoholic cirrhosis of my liver. Et voila’, this was how I lived until discovering Dr. Berg and taking control of my two diseases, instead of them controlling me. ❤️
Hi. " bravo"! I wish my mum could do the same...I saw a previous post where you didn't know when reduce your insulin one year ago? How did you do please? My mum takes so much pills for BP, metformin, she is used to fasting but she can not stop carbohydrates and bread thinking her sugar will drop... did you completely stop sugar? Donyou have hypoglycemy with keto diet and insulin?
Excellent interview! Very inspiring for myself as a type one diabetic for 25 years. It shows we can always learn and grow, the tighter the carbs the lower the insulin. That being said it’s important that it’s know and said- insulin is necessary and life saving for type one diabetics. We need long acting insulin to survive.
Great video that all type 1s need to hear. Type 1 here for 24 years. I started keto 3 years ago then went lazy carnivore. I was taking 107 units of insulin a day and am now down to 16 units a day.
Dr Richard K Bernstein MD became Type 1D at a younger age and through his low carb diet, still in practice and he is over 90.
Dr. Bernstein is my hero. TD1 for 50 years started following him 10 years ago and he saved my life.
This is an encouraging interview. But I would still love to see an a person with the autoimmune form of T1D be interviewed by you Dr. Berg. I am also very interested in hearing if taking stem cells and pancreatic glandular could actually reverse the autoimmune form of T1D. ...for my child's sake this matters a great deal to me. Please make a video on this if you can Dr. Berg. Keto is already helping her TREMENDOUSLY! Many thanks!
Congrats to you and your daughter for doing Keto! As a researcher and a fellow T1D (autoimmune), I would suggest being cautious with stem cell transplants. They are done outside of the US for other disorders but I have not heard of a successful approach with T1D. Yet. And any cell transplant for a healthy child would have to as close to risk-free as possible.
Is your daughter recently diagnosed? If so, there are different interventions that parents are trying (outside of diet), with some success. Personally, I've had success with alpha lipoic acid (ALA) to lower insulin needs, and with enzymes to digest certain foods better. Straight pancreatin didn't seem to help me, but it may be different for a child or newly diagnosed T1d.
I found this positively helpful. I never pondered that: Chronic high insulin being worse than chronic high sugar intake. Intriguing!
Thanks for sharing your story I will tell you something, my son was diagnosed at age 7 he got ill all of a sudden and then got diabetes. Diabetes is not a mistery for us but only type 2 diabetes ran in the family. My father my grandfather and grandmother and uncles, my aunties etc. My father was a nurse so I knew how to prevent and handle it. My son at age 7 graduated from Memphis diabetes auto care and it is like a miracle he does everything on his own. Now to the interesting story, I am diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis another autoimmune disease, my mother with reumathoid arthritis, my sister with chronic inflamation too. I was in bed for a long time with my MS, I watched your channel and learned about vitamin D and K2 and added that to my list of vitamins and supplements including Alpha L acid, Turmeric, Cod Liver Oil, quercetin, niagen and removed bad carbs from my diet. I also went to Honduras and got two BCG vaccine shots which reinforced my immune system and now I am free of MS symptoms. I think the BCG vaccine resets the immune system for diabetes type 1 patients and autoimmune issues. Main point is all of these diseases feed on carbs and bad nutrition using oils that will cause inflammation just use olive oil or avocado oil. Take suplements that are anti-inflammatory and you will keep these diseases at bay for a longer time. God bless you all and thanks for sharing Manuel's story I can show it to my son he is now 13. Vyacite is almost finished with their project for diabetes type 1 this is the Ultimate Solution for a substitute pancreas medical device that will provide a normal life for diabetes patients.
I really hope that you talk even more about type 1 diabetes .. ❤
As a type 1 myself who was diagnosed when I was 18 months old, it’s great to see some light shed on this. Great vid of 🙏❤️
I'm a type 1 diabetic, 37 years old, had it since I was 14 and I've been poisoning myself with insulin. This is an eye opener. Not that I hadn't noticed all this by myself for a long time, but the doctors were silent and so was I cause hey, it was convenient for me too, load up on insulin and eat what I want. But at what cost? A lot. Thanks ever so much for this video. Before Obamacare and without insurance 600 usd for a single vial if insulin sounds insane to me. I live in Bangladesh where it is much, much cheaper. Still high though not gonna lie. So it will help a lot to cut down on it financially as well. Dr. Berg listening to you from halfway around the world. Thanks a lot, I will go for the Omad diet from now on.
An excellent conversation on this topic. I am not diabetic, but my Dad was. That did not end well. (understatement) I adopted keto and omad, thanks to Dr. Berg, about 3 years ago now. I lost 50 pounds (1/4 of my body weight at the time), and my health has improved dramatically. The headaches, hip joint pain (excruciating) vanished, and the ravenous continuous hunger simply disappeared. I think this last symptom is the one creating the greatest barrier for the average person to grasp. They literally don't believe me when I try share the info with them.
Very encouraging. How long did it take for you to see the changes to you health and joint pain
My brother was a diabetic and it was from drinking for years, but he quit unfortunately the pancreas was shot by that time. He had cysts on his pancreas the size of oranges. He was at deaths door. He had already stopped alcohol for 1 year but the damage was done.
6 months later he was diagnosed with diabetes. Than the craziness started. To make a long story short he was on the roller coaster. Insulin not enough, foods not regulated . Felt great didn’t feel great and lost his short term memory. Had To go into a living assistants. Sad he got pneumonia and passed at 49. So many unknowns complications. I use to tell him not to eat any sugar but people don’t relate bread etc.with sugar. Dr. Berg is a life sent god sent!!! My brothers not here but through Dr. Berg I’ve learned a lot! And I’ve been into nutrition for years. The guest was saying his blood spiked from steak but is it a grain fed steak or grass fed? I think I needed to watch this because it puts me on a better track. We should remember our bodies are a temple and we need to treat our bodies with respect, love, and grace. I worry about my younger son. I know he loves sugar but I have to remind him and he was raised by me so I did try to teach him about nutrition. The alcohol and soda and candy and all these non nutritional snacks that fill our grocery store shelves.
This is very exciting to Dr.Berg getting specific on Type 1 Diabetic advice. I understand why, but hardly anyone will touch this subject. Very grateful. Thank you and please, keep the type 1 specific content coming.
Great testimonial! Thank you Manuel for sharing your experience.
Very interesting, thank you! Manuel, do you have content in Spanish? I live in Mexico and am constantly translating for others who are trying to follow a fasting lifestyle, but haven't found a good resource I can point them to for getting information themselves.
Thanks dr. Eric for discussing type 1 diabetes i rarely find any videos about it on your channel, i hope you will upload and discuss more about it.
Thanks Dr berg for talking bout type 1. I've been type 1 for 47 years and it's been rough at times but since I found your channel and started keto and IF I way more healthy then I've ever been. What this guy is saying is true. Most days I eat OMAD as long as blood sugar is good and the less food and strict keto I feel so much better and have so much more energy. I dont know who thought we need 3 meals plus snacks to live but that's not true. I've been able to lose over 80 pounds and lower my insulin from almost 100 units down to 38 units. I'm hoping to get it even lower. One serious question dr berg what in your opinion the best healthy insulin to use if there is such a thing. Im on novolin N and R and would like one more natural. I've researched it but can't seem to find one. When I was first diagnosed I was taking insulin made from pig pancreas. So can you please tell me the best insulin. Thanks for this video and I hope you do more on TYPE 1 DIABETES.
What do you eat for that one meal
All insulin today is made from bacteria. That's why you should refrigerate it. Only God can give you natural insulin. And the government took that away.
Aún sigues con las mismas insulinas ??
You are where I was trying to game the system. Trying to test how much of my old life I could hang onto. Testing boundaries. After listening to you today I’m going to embrace the foods that make me feel great and keep me motivated. Thank you.
This is so true, I have 3 type 1 children, keto diet really help their bgl with less insulin, but my younger 2 is still a struggle, they love to eat some carbs so we will get there.
But Keto does work. Thank you Dr Berg
Wonderful. Wishing your family good health.
Just curious, How old are the kids? I have 4,7 with t1d. Most doctors not suggesting low carbs for kids.
(T1 diabetic), few years ago I tried fasting from sunrise to sunset as Islamic fasting, it tremendously lowered my sugar levels, felt energetic and ofc reduced lantus from 20 to 8 units and 6 units of novorapid , felt more full and energetic but was on a low carb not keto and also 30 minutes walking everyday after eating
Thank you Dr. Berg you’re the best as usual.
I have a question I’m doing OMAD KETO for 6 months now I have a sweet taste always in my tongue what the reason? Is it good or bad? What to do to get rid of it? Thanks 🙏
You might have ketoacidosis.
Great interview!
I definitely recommend the Berg’s electrolyte powder. It’s a must with OMAD and keto.
I feel much better since including this.
Thanks again!
Peace and blessings 🙏
Gave Dr Berg’s sports version to my bodybuilder son after I heard him complaining about moodiness… he called the next day to mention how great he feels. He is non-keto but he sees my response to keto/IF after only 100 days and is asking the right questions now. The product is a great solution to ‘keto flu’
Hi Dr.Berg, i'm a converted type2 to type1 and doing everything i can do to be healthy. I'm eating twice a day my last meal by 3:30pm or 4pm. I hv to use 20 units per meal to bring my glucose dn correctly. My #'s are still, between 180 to 200+ even w the insulin after eating. I'm working on limiting all carbs and cutting out all sugar. I started exercising again, and it's helping restore some of my energy. I believe, in about 3 to 6 months of eating rt and working out my health/ energy will be restored. I hv been following most of your videos on eating/health tips. You help me more than any doctor i've seen. Hopefully, i can use less insulin in the future and improve my overall health. Pls, keep doing the info. videos on diabetes and how to improve this awful condition. This video was infornative and helpful. Thxu,..for all you do i appreciate your products and advice. Shalom.
Eating earlier to align with the circadian rhythms is what I strive to do! I don’t know if what I’m attempting to do currently could be considered OMAD, but it was pretty helpful with digestion the day before, after a 48 hour fast.
Post bile salts, I replaced those with ginger and fennel seed and on my first office break of the day (after the 48 hour fast) I have these with some butter to get my juices flowing. Then two hours later I begin lunch (I do all of this at work), and lunch would usually be my OMAD for the day. It gave me such incredible results! I felt the body go after the fat and give my brain and the rest of me energy and it was even easier to concentrate at work! I was only going to do this yesterday but the results were so amazing that I decided to try it again today, but this time I’m adding some sauerkraut and some sea salt to the mix. The practice of priming my gut for proper digestion before lunch may be what I do regularly going forward! Thanks to your advice on what to eat, how much and when, of course.
Thanks to you and your guest, you guys are awesome!
I started eating better and working out and is helping alot. Thanks for all your info. I've learned more from you than my doctor
Loving everything keto related. Keep up the good work. I have lost 2 stone now and still going. I also take supplements, I take electrolytes, collagen, organic turmeric and pepper, Organic Chlorella & Spirulina (meant to be a great source of protein) ,
Cod liver oil.
I have problems with my knees since I fell and suffered ligament damage. So I take supplements which should help with that.
I have Kefir in my diet. I eat organic food whenever possible. I drink only water between the one meal I eat per day and practice intermittent fasting. I have watched a ton of your videos Dr Berg. You have helped me to remain focused, or boost my focus when it starts to fade. I don't have food in the house that I shouldn't eat and that makes it very easy to stick to my diet.
I also find it easy to stick to my diet if I go out for a Sunday dinner with my family.
I'm feeling a lot better in myself. I am sleeping better and everyone tells me how well I am looking. I also feel less stressed, I don't know if its diet related or a coincidence.
But its something I am happy about.
Thank you Dr Berg for all my initial information on Healthy Keto.
Many many thanks
I would love to hear from a type 1 insulin dependent diabetic woman on adjusting her insulin levels each month due to hormones. That's my biggest trouble with keto. Without hormones, my basals would always be the same and more dependable.
So grateful to you Dr. Berg.
May you be blessed dozens of times over for the blessings you give to others.
Great vid. I’ve been type 1 for 43 years ( possibly due to a seizure from a high fever at age 3.) I have had 3 transient ischemic strokes and I am currently struggling to maintain control of my sugars. I take 1.35 units of humalog per hour through my pump. I generally eat less than 150 grams of carbs per day, and I survive on egg whites and rotisserie chicken.
Thank you Dr Berg so much for all you do for all of us. We are grateful to you and all of the wonderful information you provide us with. Manuel Suarez - Thank you.
Hi Dr Berg, My partner was diagnosed with stage IV adenocarcinoma esophageal cancer. He developed type 1 from his chemotherapy cocktail. He is 75 and started insulin. It has also affected his thyroid, lungs, throat in what appears to be an autoimmune response. This is most interesting video. He did High dose VIt C IV and LDN for his cancer as well and it is gone after 3 chemo treatments and his MD is amazed. Now he has this other problem.
This was great! I don't know how I missed this episode 7 months ago.
Thank you Dr. Berg for sharing this interview!
I've been wondering how to do Keto and IF being type 1 and this helped tremendously.
This is honestly helpful information. I was diagnosed when I was 7 years old been into dka 13 times and lead to comas I am 32 and sadly it took me til I was 30 to get it all together. I eliminated the carbs ( bagels, breads, cookies etc ) and mainly focus on veggies and fruits and my sugars have drastically improved the norm for me was 500’s sometimes beyond 600 but now I’m around 109-135 ish but me being human when I slip up and have heavy carbs I see the spikes especially for dinner I use to wake up with high sugars. Also I am on a insulin pump but my goal is to one day not have to take insulin.
this reminds me of so many years ago when I quit smoking cigarettes.
it took this very same path to stop.
and why I refused the opioids during my surgery recovery....
the 2 to 3 week breakthrough followed by the ever popping up of desire to smoke JUST one.
the human mind is so manipulative and our society started us down the bad habit path 100years ago.
now, after 2 years on keto...i STILL catch myself looking at a Boston Cream donut!!!!!!!
If you've done good for so long with your diet, you don't treat yourself once in a blue moon?
@@Oldschoolways168 of course i do!
and I HOPE you are talking about the donnut and not the cig, right????
BTW...i am a cook and I learned how to do keto very well, once I learned to stock correctly and to experiment endlessly.
but I still make great non-keto, like my ridiculously bad lime pie yesterday!!!!!!!
My husband is severe type 1. Can't regulate, eats lots of sugar, junk. Is a painting contractor who works excessively hard and long days. works like he's healthy but has glaucoma, neuropathy, muscle cramps nearly every day. He's listening to this and saying "but I need food/fuel to be able to work. I pray he will at least try to start with 3 healthy meals and see if we can work him into 1 meal later.
Thank you to Dr Berg and to Manuel for sharing!
It’s gonna be way easier to get him into ketosis first before trying to reduce calories
Great video! I’m in the process of reducing my insulin use. This was very informative. 🙏🏻
Been Type 1 for 22 years and this information is spot on guys. Thanks for the video.
I hope that helps!
Thank you Dr. Berg. Could you please create a video about the pancreas, how to know if you have problems, how to keep it healthy, and what to do if you get pancreatic cancer?
Wow hitting home i been diabetic since 14 about 21 yrs we might have been poisoned by food .....
If your blood sugar drops down to 40, you can’t have protein and hope it will fix it. You have to have sugar ASAP with very little fat to instantly bring it back.
with sufficient insulin protein contributes verry little for blood sugar, however with insulin deficiency, gluconeogenesis proceeds rapidly and contributes to an elevated blood glucose level.
Also, protein triggers glucagon so if you have some protein with every meal your blood sugars will remain more stable.
Manuel was great. For myself as the Mother of an adult with 21 years as a T1D... I need to hear from someone with an auto-immune Type 1 diabetes; bc I heard a couple times where Manuel & Dr. Berg mentioned "his/my insulin". Since there is "no" insulin produced for those for a T1 with an auto-immunity condition.
Wow! That's amazing ,his story is much like mine. I'm down to 2 shots a day and only doing 1/2 of the insulin I used to. Thank you both for the continued inspiration!
Cuáles inyecciones usas al día
Great Dr berg . You making life easier for many people.
I'm delighted to hear it.
There you go~! My body also turns Proteen in to Sugar~!!!!!!! It's very good at it. I enjoyed this guest and his story~!
This is very inspiring! I must learn more about electrolyte powder, excellent interview thanks people 👍
Thank you, my pleasure!
I normally drink full cream milk when my BG drops. A bit of sugar buffered by fat.
Being a Type 1 diabetic, my understanding is that my body produces insulin, but the “Islets of Longhorn” do not secrete my insulin to the blood cells. Now, I have to pump animal insulin into my fat cells. I’ve been IF and lightweight keto for 4 years now, it’s critical to maintain a better A1C.
Part II: I agree with Manuel’s theory though, you may not be fully Type 1 for some reason. I say that because you’re on Intensive therapy with Lantus for basal and Humalog/Novalog for bolus. 5U a day with OMAD? I’m not confident that’s realistic and I’m super skeptical… I’ve done that with my pump and I still have 30U a day of Lyumjev for OMAD..
My son is Type 1. I wish he could only take 5 units in addition to his basal insulin rates on his pump.
Thank you 💕 doctor 🏥
You're very welcome!
I had someone ask me about what insulin dependant people would do in an shtf situation. My response was that they would be basically like everyone else, until their insulin ran out, whether by spoiling or just running out. Then they die. This was shocking to the person and asked what could be done. I explained that their best bet was to start eating correctly now and get into the daily habit of eating the right foods and basically everything else this video describes. Absolutely minimize the amount of insulin they need even while they have it available because this will help them live better and longer anyway.
What he is describing about thinking he was type 2 for a few yrs before his diagnosis of type 1 is what Endocrinologists call the "honeymoon period". It the time when the body/pancreas is producing less and less insulin. Same thing happened to my son at age 10
great video, i'm glad he included some info at the end about exactly what he eats for that one meal a day. i'm not diabetic but i do omad most days and have been for a couple of years now. everyone of course thinks i'm crazy. aside from channels like yours it's impossible to get support from the people around me :(
Dr. Eric Berg DC I'd like to tell you how my type 1 diabetes was cured by happenings of circumstance and the information I found as to the reasons why. Also...how the medical system is dealing with my experience and findings. How do I go about having a conversation with you.
Share please
@@TheNaomix4 In short...STOP taking the insulin and stay on a veggie low carb diet to avoid the side effects of high blood sugars. Your pancreas will start working again in 3-4 days.
Great to see the genius marketing guru who helped Dr Berg become the internet sensation that he is, getting the genius level wellness help from Dr Berg! You both are amazingly talented people who inspire me. Thank you for both for sharing this. This will definitely help thousands of people who need to know this
Isn't it the truth of Dr. B's teaching that is the true "genius"?
Gurus are bad 'Coz people follow them blindly. Dr Berg is a huge source of knowledge and interesting stuff. I like his stuff. But don't take it for granted.' ;)
@Sally Matsukawa sure I don't say the opposite :) but he always implies keto answers everything, which is not. But sure for an American population it can solve a lot considering all the sh*tty products they have there.
@@mhpjii Dr Berg is amazing and my comment wasn’t to reduce him in any way. His marketing guy is phenomenal I just wanted to point out and Dr Berg, like all of us in the natural health space, are really fortunate when we pair our talents with the right people who can get our message out to everyone.
I know a person (Type 2 diabetic) who went gluten-free and cut insulin dose in half. She made the decision after reading the book "Wheat Belly".
I have had Type 1 for over 40 years after taking the experimental mumps booster in the late 70s. I take on average 15 units a day. I couldn't do without carbs.
Hi Dr Berg I love your videos! Are the ones on Facebook on your channel here also? On some of those where you mention there is a link in the description, I am not seeing the link referenced anywhere. Thank you for all the great info you give us viewers! I discovered your channel 2 years ago and it has been such help for me. Bless you!!

Thank you very helpful information. Can you please review the Ozampic diet, and the effects of using a diabetic drug for weight loss in non-diabetics.
I love your videos I've learned so much. But what are your thoughts on Whole Plant Based eating for Diabetes?
My wife recently became T1 earlier this year at 25yo. Staying away from carbs is legit as a T1D! My wife only takes 6 units of long acting and maybe 2-4 units of short acting a day depending on the food. We also found out that by simply drinking water, and moving immediately after taking insulin, the insulin is significantly more efficient and requires less insulin when coupled with those things.
My wife became type 1 last year (31 years old) before the vaccine her a1c was 4.9 everything was fine, 3 month after the shot her glucose level was over 500
Thank you for this video! Absolutely amazing inspiring stuff!
Lovely, thanks for the feedback!
Dr. Berg, can you please advise me, my son was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes at age 7, he’s now 13 years old, we were told that he needs to eat carbohydrates because his body and brain are still developing, so he eats carbohydrates and we give him insulin, please, please advise on this condition for teens, thank you!!!!💖
Though that I don't have it. Thank you Dr Berg for the info 😇
I wish to be with your video , to share my experience .
I traveled to Mexico recently and I found the nopal plant to be great! So nutritious and with plenty of fiber.
Please make a video on LADA
I will check with Dr. Berg about doing a video on this!

Very informative share 📒😎 I very too often take extra insulin without knowing that it was equally bad. Thanks Dr Eric Berg 👏
Got a little lost with all the numbers but very interesting.
“If you eat a lot of protein your blood sugars will continue to creep up”. This goes for diabetics and even most non-diabetics.
Hello. I'm not sure where to put my request but can you do a video about estrogen and progesterone. How the hormones affect a woman's body and men too (if so), when it comes to keeping them balanced. How they help keep weight balanced, etc etc. Thank you
Dr. Berg has many videos regarding hormones and how to balance them.

Dr Berg and Manual … Thank you! My son is 40 and has been Type 1 since he was 12. I’ve disgusted IF and keto with him. The concern is getting into ketosis. My guess is, a Type 1 does not push to get into ketosis as a person without diabetes?
Truth. Been doing Lantus and that's all for four years and it works well as long as you stay very low carb.
No usaba insulina rápida ??
@@cireldagagobenitez8618 Nope
Hey doc ! Could you make a video on diabetic diaherrea and how to cure it ?
I’ve always wanted to try keto, how can I do this as a type one diabetic without going in to DKA?
Yep … it’s tricky being TD1 I call it the teeter totter effect high low sugars … so it’s being vigilant and watchful of putting food in your mouth!
You’re The Godfather for many of us, may God bless you 🙏🏻
I'm a type 1 diabetic for 12 years now, I use around 20 to 30 unites a day, and would love to reduce my insulin intake, but how to avoid losing weight in the process, as I can't risk losing any weight?
My average daily insulin was 76 total units 10 years ago. Yesterday I injected a total of 10 units Lantus and 4 of fast acting. I eat 2 meals a day and less than 20 carbs. I follow Dr. Bernstein so I eat very low carb, moderate fat and high protein. Check out Dr. Bernstein’s Diabetes Solution. TD1 for 50 years and feeling great.
Dr Berg, Manuel spoke about 25 units of long acting and 40 units of fast acting per day before Keto. After Keto Manuel mentioned that he is using 5 units of insulin. Is this both long acting and fast acting combined. I believe Keto helps in reducing the fast acting insulin usages. Manuel how are you able to reduce the long acting insulin levels. What is the usage of long acting insulin before and after Keto. Can you please explain.
Thank you Dr. Berg for addressing this! I am type 1 and have noticed many of the increased insulin sensitivity results Manuel mentions here when I am in keto. I should really be in keto more often!
I hope all is well.
We owe a great debt of gratitude to you, Dr. Berg. For all the good you do for others, may many blessings be showered upon you. Take care, everyone! ✨ Xo Heather Thrills
This was very good information. Thank you so much for your time
I'm delighted to hear it.
@@Drberg Thank you 🤗
Hello Dr Berg . I have been doing keto for 2 years thanks to you 😊. Actually my daughter who is 8 years old now is diabetic type 1 since she is 4. I wanted to introduce low carb diet to her but failed because I am afraid of ketones , you know what I mean for diabetic type 1 ketones in blood or urine is bad , we need to take them urgently to hospital . So I don’t understand how he can do intermittent fasting and keto since since he is diabetic type 1 . Can you help ? I am from France ( French speaking ) . She is taking actually 8-12-12 for rapid for each meal and 22 for latent insuline and gained too much weight
Our same concern. I can see IF being ok, but full keto concerns us and getting into ketosis.
It’s 2 different things you’re talking about DKA is not ketosis
I'm grateful for this, but you didn't mentioned anything about high ketones which happened to people who are diabetics type 1.
This was my thought. I would proceed with caution.
You get some fingerstick glucometers that can also measure your ketones, you just need different strips. If you get one of these machines you can prevent yourself from going into ketoacidosis.
@@maiaallman4635 ok, and if it's high what do we do?
Unfortunately my 2 and half years niece is type 1 diabetic. Can a small kid can follow keto and IF as well? Please help sir. I am always grateful to Almighty that He send you in my life as a savior . Cause i was obese and was suffering pcod and pre diabetic . Thanks for changing my life Dr. Berg🙏❤️
Thanks a lot Dr Berg I think I stay developed diabet tip 2 my mother is diabetics tip 2 and I stay thinking how I can treat or meybe help me stoped this process.Thamk so much for recomandation or how I can do in this case.
Hello. Sharing my videos here on type 2 diabetes: www.youtube.com/@DrEricBergDC/search?query=type%202%20diabetes
Hey Dr.Berg I'm not a doctor or scientist but I've have understanding of diabetes we may have a breakthrough my friend had a fatty liver which lead to his diabetes now he's in remission now is their any revelation tied to fatty liver and diabetes..
I got my answer here. " The only way I can control my blood sugar since I do not take insulin is by '''''''staying off all carbs."'''' 6 weeks on KETO and it has been pure hell but I have been noticing changes for the better. Yet, I know this body is not out of the red yet. What a incredible adventure! I think I deserve a treat: Broccoli sprouts come to my mind and some lemon water and I might add a spoonful of MTC oil...
Good point on 🍖. But meat also have some critical minerals, aminoacids the body needs and plants does not have in quality. Maybe plant oils on the cook can impact the sugar levels...good interview. Mexican outstanding english
Good bless you more and more and more and more and more DR BERG. Thank you so much for all these priceless knowledge.
No problem. Thank you. Same to you!
Great video can you do one on fluoroquinolone toxicity from antibiotics?
Talk about curing Cancer with keto please
yes its more to long term fasting to kill off cancer cells and balancing it with staying nourished with enough nutrients
My cousins son is really bad with Type 1..hope you can assist him
