About 3 weeks into going KETO I remember waking up laughing one night, it was as if the happy light was turned on. Brain fog was gone, and inflammation nearly gone, and I'm a Great Grandma!
I can identify with the disappearance of food cravings, mine was sudden, about 4 weeks into Ketovore . I had a hard day babysitting, was tired and thought I’d reward myself with a tiny chocolate caramel flavored custard cone. Just a mini cheat you understand. On my way to the custard stand, my mouth started watering for a big fat juicy hamburger…which had on my dinner menu so I headed home, had two bun less burgers (back then I had to use lettuce wraps, not now) and NEVER needed the custard treat. I was totally satisfied. For 40 years my low fat, calorie restricted plant based diet had set me up for failure. I consider a cheat day now 9 chocolate chips (65% cacao) thrown in my Two Good yogurt (1/2 a container) with a handful of raw nuts with heavy cream whipped with a tiny bit of stevia. I weigh now what I weighed in high school, I am 67 going on 17! Thanks to Dr Ken Berry and nurse Neisha!
I'm 77, went Carnivore, and had the runs for 18 weeks except 2 days, then suddenly normal. I was about 3 weeks in when suddenly I was no longer hungry and forgetting to eat. At about 6 weeks I did a 72 hour fast. with no problem. By 12 weeks I was no longer having joint pain. Carnivore is amazing. I hadn't been sleeping for months, maybe a year. Had been very depressed and angry. My Hashimotos is better, seldom depressed, no longer on antidepressants, not sure where the anger went.
I have coworkers that say you shouldn’t eat so much meat you need veggie too. All I said is well it works for me and everyone is different and your entitled to your opinion.
Amen! I get that, too. But, leaning harder into carnivore is the way for me as I see improvements and results that were once out of reach. Find your path to heal; stay focused and hopeful.
I had a whole slew of medical issues. Since leaning more toward keto carnivore I have tapered off of almost all my medications and feel better than when I was in my early 20's. This way of eating really does work. I was buying into the whole..."wholefood plant based" hype for almost 2 decades. Just kept getting sicker and sicker. It makes me so mad that people are being lied to about their health.
Susan LeFever, good for you. Co-workers are very into others business, cannot stand it. I lost 15 bls so far doing Keto. Boy oh boy! I hear about it everyday( I eat grass and meat lol). Carnivore next month so they really will talk now 😆
a month into Keto and when working outside cutting and moving firewood etc, I would like run into a wall, had zero energy left and had to stop work, a few months later and I can just work and work, I end up stopping and still have energy left, used to be if I worked hard one day, next day I was all aches and pains, now I may get a bit achy right after hard work, but next day I am right back to normal, I'm 70
Excellent... I'm 68 so this is encouraging... Most of my life I worked Construction and had energy to burn all day... In my 50's something must have clicked off because suddenly I was struggling and had body aches like mad after work... Now, it seems to be a rising metabolism and I'm happier for sure... Keep on keepin on brother.
@@bosatsu76 Over a year on keto now and my body is 100%. Got my gall bladder working too, no more aches and pains, and I feel great! Bonus, no more acne and prostate has shrunk. I am sleeping through the night now, this is life changing. I tell everyone I can but most people would rather keep eating carbs than lose 30 years.
I agree about the energy level. Until I was fat adapted it was like driving a car with only a small amount of gas in the tank. I was quickly on empty after some exertion. But within 6-8 weeks that feeling went away and my energy level was much more even.
@@marygallagher7392 the good thing is eventually your body becomes fat adapted and can burn both fuels all the time, well depending on what you eat of course
Wow. Your comment from a year ago threw me back two decades when I was racing my classmates and was ahead but hit a wall, I just couldn’t run anymore and stopped in exhaustion. I was so disappointed in myself. Thank you. Probably doesn’t make any sense, but I gained an enlightenment (perhaps a true forgiveness) and it means a lot.
Himalayan pink salt has 84 vitamins and minerals and high in magnesium :) put a teaspoon in some warm water before bed and you can tell rite away !!! You will start yawning immediately
@@melissaedwards5689 schumann has been spiking and it can cause hyper activity and insomnia. TH-cam Schumann resonance symptoms people can also have heart palpitations and headaches and ringing in the ears and lots of other symptoms
I drink Snake Juice regularly- himalayan salt, magnesium, baking soda and no-salt (potassium). I've been sleeping better since. Took a week or two to start to slowly help. I've not slept properly for nearly 30 years and this is the only thing to make even a slight difference.
I can't believe how easy it is for me to continue being in ketosis. BUT it was very difficult for me to get there - well worth the effort. Feeling stable every day, not being ruled by food, not suddenly running out of energy, getting rid of inflammation in my body. I love everything I eat. Now, if I feel tired I just have a cuppa and sit for a short while and I start reviving. No going back for me!
I have Hashimotos as well, which I'm told is unusual for a man. I took myself off the meds last year after only a couple months on them and have been mostly carnivore since January of this year. I have an appointment to get my bloodwork again in 2 weeks. Yesterday (March 27th) I woke up full of energy. I cleaned up the house some, did several loads of laundry and even exercised. Today I've got energy again and have been doing the same things. After months of being unable to do much of anything, it's been fantastic.
My hashimoto story is so similar, depression & anxiety. I’m much older and was dealing with chronic menopause and what I thought was fibromyalgia chronic pain, and lipolymphedemia.It took me about three months to start feeling better. The brain fog was the first to go. And little by little I started getting my life back. I don’t have the body pain anymore. I get pain back if I eat night shades or too many carbs. It wasn’t fibromyalgia as Dr. Berry explained. And definitely the lower the carbs (under 20) the less hungry. 14 months now and an entirely new person. Can you imagine going through 2020 with all of that sickness! So very grateful to be here.😊
Brenda Kemp It could be. If only we knew then. If only the Dr.s would know! We trusted them in these decisions. But we’re making the good changes now and that’s making a huge difference ❤️
So true....Nightshades are the worst for me too. I wake up with excruciating back pain from my anklyosis spondylitis just hours after consuming peppers or tomatoes. But when it's just meat/eggs or cheese. No pain
Well when you are chronically tired or in pain ( spondylitis, autoimmune disease) ….in my case There is no desire to interact with anyone 😢. Ketovore has helped me tons , everyday I feel better n better
@@ForsterTKH So to you it is more important to to see numbers written down on a paper than listen to your body's reaction to better health! Wow! Guess you can't decide if a sunset is beautiful because someone didn't write it down on a paper for you! If you want analytics then go look for the medical specialists who can write you a paper. These comments are from real women, and real men too, who are stating how much better they feel when following these different dietary habits. The majority of people love their lives by how they feel today and tomorrow, not by waiting for a chemical report to tell them IF they are feeling good today! Stop being such a pucker puss! Try it for a couple weeks! What harm will 'befall' you other than finding out that you feel better than you did before!
DR BERRY IM DOING KETOVORE MY BS HAS INCREASED FROM 140S TO 365 AT NIGHT 250S AM. IM TAKING GLIPIZIDE AND GLYXAMBI. I THOUGHT EATING THIS DIET WOULD BRING SUGARS DOWN? EATING CLEAN SALADS GREEN BEANS LESS THAN 20GRAMS CARBS DAILY. NO SWEETS
@@reneehutchinson1614 Maybe tweak your diet to a more keto version (more fat less protein). In the meantime, check out this video (Dr. Berry) about gluconeogenesis and the carnivore diet: th-cam.com/video/A36DS6HJxNs/w-d-xo.html
As a fellow nurse...I would nervous eat at work so I had to bring in keto snacks and meals because hospital food is so no no. My days off no problem. Just retired. Yeaheeee!
I’ve been Ketovore for a month and no weight loss. I have a lot going on with my health, though, so I’m trying to be patient. Thank you for this timely video. Hunger pains are gone, I have more energy, and less brain fog. My blood sugar is improving too. I’ll forge on!
Carol R I just want to encourage you to keep going.🥰 I had so many health issues when I started 14 months ago. Hashimoto’s menopause, lymphedema, lipedema, fibromyalgia and a few other issues. I didn’t see weight loss for about 2 months. But I little by little started feeling better. I joined the pateron group and they kept telling me to stay the course. They promised that it gets better. I binge watched Dr. Berry. And watch the zoom with him and Neisha. I’m a different person today. I could hardly walk from room to room because I hurt so bad and was overwhelmed all the time.I had no idea that I could have the energy that I have now! 85 lbs down and chronic pain is gone. I’m no longer desperate, but so encouraged and hopeful and I’m younger at age 60 then I was at 40. You won’t regret staying the course. I PROMISE!😊
corky23 I’m 58, type 2 diabetic, fibromyalgia, IBS, GERD, overweight, and more. I needed your words today! It gets frustrating. I’ve lost ten pounds on low carb/keto with Noom, but I’ve switch to mostly carnivore/keto. Waiting to see results is hard. I thought I was doing something wrong. I’m on Facebook as Carol Reddick. Could we chat more about what you went through?
I look at it this way: you are not going to fix in days, what you spent years wrecking. What is being fixed internally, is probably more important than weight loss. I know that was true with me for hypertension. Keep it up!
I totally agree, I was strict Keto for 1 yr. and it rocked my world. I have strayed and now need to get back to the basics. This video has convinced me to do just that. Thank you Neisha for the inspiration.
Thanks for sharing your experience of living with Hashi. I’ve had Hashimoto’s for 42 yrs and have, and still do, experience all you speak off (chronic fatigue, anxiety/depression, weight gain, brain fog, etc.) as well. I’m a retired nurse (72 yrs young and struggling to loose 40 lbs) a former vegan, then vegetarian. This ketovore way of eating is so very foreign to me, but I’m willing to give it a try.
I have always had so much will power that kept me from being morbidly obese like my father & 3 sisters. I became super strict and obsessive over food and exercise. Seriously I was miserable and the struggle was consuming! I should have been diagnosed with an eating disorder but nobody KNEW about that back in the 70’s! I came to keto for some help managing anxiety and depression and I’m doing much better since I transitioned to ketovore. I only WISH I’d known 40 years ago that the weight was gonna fall off and my mind would finally be free! Thanks for your story Neisha. I hope you continue to free people by helping educate your viewers in such a practical, caring and authentic way! 🥰 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
If one keeps one's carbohydrate intake to 20 - 30 net grams of carb per day you will fat adapt more efficiently. Some people are actually not getting the carbs low enough at the beginning and this is hindering their progress. Once you have fully fat adapted you may find you can eat up to 50 grams net carb. The best electrolyte drink I use for this process to prevent keto flu and tiredness is a product called simply primal WATERFAST. It has 1000 mg sodium, 1000 mg potassium, calcium and magnesium per scoop. When fat or keto adapting one needs 3000 - 5000 mg of sodium per day and you should be getting at least 3000 - 4700 mg potassium as well. This drink really helps with the transition and preventing electrolyte loss as you adapt. The potassium is just as important as the sodium and magnesium. If you are plagued with muscle cramps take 400 - 500 mg of magnesium glycinate each morning. Many people are deficient and don't realize it.
Just want to say you’re the reason I went ketovore. I have Hashimoto’s and all sorts of mental problems plus traumas. Thank you for using this platform to reach thousands of people. ❤️😊
I am so glad I found you and Dr. Berry! My hashimoto's symptoms are nearly non-existent since going carnivore! It is an amazing relief to finally feel like myself again after years of feeling like I was just a passenger in someone else's body.
excellent testimonial... i also had serious problems with brain fog. I used to eat tones of bananas, dates and dried fruits, rolled oats, protein bars etc... thinking that because they were natural they were "healthy". I had a compulsive hunger hours after meals, I had severe bouts of anxiety and severe burnout. I felt that something was very wrong with my mind and Extreme difficulty in concentrating on very simple things. After watching videos and read the studies about this subject and research metabolic effects of the brain. I suspected the bizarre amount of sugar intake on my diet and decided to severely restrict my sugar intake using a source of good fats as a source of Calories .. and boom! Everything changed in my life
You're literally my favorite person on TH-cam. I really appreciate how real and honest you are. You're videos are helping me so much. Thank you Neisha! ❤️
Good video Neisha!! Keeping info simple but powerful. Your story is my story. I am 68. have been keto/carnivore for 15 months, started keto for extreme inflammation and pain. Later diag with 2 auto immune (PMR and PN) I am under doctor care with meds and its all working for me. But staying keto and fasting is the best part for help in pain and inflammation and carb sugar craves gone! Like Dr. berry and Dr. berg says "fix your diet first and that will start healing in your body" so true, so true. Keto is not a diet, it is a way of life. Sugar, carbs run thru your blood and cause so much damage to your nerves and the pain will show up in auto immune, my feet killed me for 3 yrs of pain!! Give up sugars, carbs. I am adding b12 and nutrition yeast now to help with the nerve damage that was done and continue my doctors care, last visit he said stay with the keto course it will help you. I went from 182 lbs in 2019 to 164 now, still hoping I can lose a few more pounds but not pushing that, just staying the course with keto and IF and my body will decide what's best. Love you, Mean it!! your sweet
I don’t have words to express how important your Hashimoto testimony was to me. I started keto a month ago and my brain fog is still bad. Like you, it is my worse symptom. You helped me have faith that it will improve. It feels like I’m locked inside my brain. Listening to you helps me so much! ❤️
@@pattismithurs9023 Dementia and Alzheimers is now called Type 3 diabetes. It's exactly how it happens. Keto plus fasting will help you. You want to be making Ketones. Ketones does to Dementia what Acetone does to paint.
I agree with you so much. I have been on carnivore / keto for 2 months now. My memory is so much better. I'm 53 and was so worried wondering what was going to happen to me as I got older. Dementia and all. I use to have to write EVERYTHING down. Now I don't have too nearly as much and I feel normal again. My energy levels have totally changed. I run up the stairs again. Lost 16 kilos so far. Hardly have any cravings too. I enjoy this way of eating and not feeling deprived at all. I feel it's totally sustainable. Make my own mayonnaise now with MCT oil and it tastes amazing. Making lots of stuff I never thought I would before. I don't have a sweet tooth so I'm good with that. My only craving is pizza to be honest. But I can handle it. Not fighting myself over it either. Feeling great. Glad you are too.
I started keto on 2018. 209# I binged on dr Berg and dr Berry and others. Knowing it could take weeks I just ignored it. Then one day I had zero hunger. Like I had to force myself. I also had no cravings. That’s how I knew. Lost 35# from March 18- December. Slow! I’m 63 now. It’s harder. You youngins get to it now!!!!!
I truly appreciate you taking the time to explain Fat Adapted...cause I was ready to throw in the towel and go back to IF, which I've been able to do easily, and to do the next milestone...Zero to low carbs! Because I gained 3lbs, after losing 40lbs!!! So again thank you so very much for sharing these snippets of how to know when you are Fat Adapted!!!
6 months Keto on September 3rd! Changing my life I love it! I have thyroid issues as well and it’s helping me feel like I used to! Thanks for the videos!
I started keto back in January. I felt horrible the first week, a really bad case of the keto flu but at the same time, I noticed that most of my chronique pain was gone. That’s what motivated me to stick with it since I didn’t do it for weight loss but I’m happy about the weight I have loss in the belly area 😁.I also have much less anxiety. The quality of my life has improved so much ! Thank you for your informative and heartfelt video .
I've been intermittent fasting on regular carb rich diet for 2 months and suspect my insulin level is better. I recently added Keto 2 weeks ago and have also seen the energy coming up noticeably. I also noticed the brain fog lifting, didn't even realize I had it, but the increase in clarity of thought is significant. The biggest bonus so far is the lowering of my blood pressure. I take meds for high blood pressure, but my pressure was going too low and I was dizzy a lot. I stopped taking the meds 3 days ago and now my blood pressure is normal.😁
You and Doctor B are my favorite TH-cam keto informers. When I feel discouraged, I watch one of your videos and feel inspired to stick with Keto. Thank you for your videos, I surely am enjoying them. I'm hoping my adult children will give Keto an honest try. Blessings to you 💗🦋💗🦋
Thanks Neish! This was so helpful! I've been getting disheartened during my keto journey. I have insulin resistance and PCOS so things tend to happen much slower for me, but like you, I naturally started intermittent fasting as I wasn't hungry and now am more in tune with hunger. You don't over complicate things and I'm grateful for that. ❤️
This sounds like my experience so far. I’ve been Keto for 2 months now and I can’t imagine ever going back to the exhaustion, the anxiety, or the brain fog. Bye! Won’t miss ya! 😂
I have diabetes and hashimotos and 45 pounds overweight and approaching 50. I recently had Covid but it was the fatigue that took over more than the actual virus. I’ve been watching your videos and I’ve decided to start ketovore. Thanks so much for giving me the push I’ve been needing for the past five years. I’m so sick of feeling sick
I relate so much to this. I am 51 menopausal, prediabetic, and I have hypothyroidism and need to lose 45 lbs. A year ago I came down with shingles and debilitating fatigue. All these conditions make losing weight impossible, but seeing a similar struggle in someone else means I am not alone. I am right there with you sick and tired of being sick and tired. Best of luck on your journey!
Love it .....Your not pretending to be anything but REAL ...Gorgeous women don’t do that very much. Could listen to you and hubby everyday...but chasing grandkids🥰
Neisha, Thank you so much!! You are like a breath of fresh air!! I love the way you pour your Heart and Soul into these videos and are just so candid...It is so helpful to have people like you out there that are will to share their victories and defeats so that we can all learn...ALSO, you just make me smile!!
I've been at the ketovore for less than a week (Started Aug 1, 21)... Day three I noticed a heat in my chest and face and arms. Thinking the thyroid is coming alive and my metabolism is rising... Looking forward to the future now rather than being depressed about getting old and slow.
I had "brain fog" so bad I thought I was in the beginning stages of dementia. After several weeks of low carbohydrates (idk how many) most the aggravating fog disappeared.
I’ve been watching you for since I started Keto.... about 2 years now... and I absolutely love you girl! You’ve grown a lot! In a good way (of course ;)). Love your videos. Thank you for sharing it all with us! You’re so positive and true full! I can relate with many things!
My story is similar to yours. One of the biggest difference to your story is that I always had painful migraine everytime I indulged in a little bit of fatty food. The kind of headache that eventually made me incapable of doing any work and incapable of thinking about anything other than the throbbing pain in my head. This made me more serious to look for an alternative lifestyle (even though I had always maintained a healthy lifestyle). I had always eaten half the portion of rice of the people around me. Now I just don't eat rice at all. I'm so thankful! :)
Good Morning! I’m new to your channel. I’ve been watching your husbands videos and because of him I decided to go carnivore. I just wanted to say hello 👋 and I love your channel. Have a beautiful day! 🌺🌸
I use to have these panic attacks too, thinking I can't breathe and I'm going to die from not getting my air! I haven't had one in a long, long time. I do mostly carnivore, kind of ketovore. It really helps, and so many other things it helps too.
Hi Wendy, can you tell me how you did with Keto? I'm entering a new phase and want to start with Keto and then head in to carnivore. Any feedback would be appreciative. Thanks, Rob
Hallelujah!!! That is one of the best side effects of eating this way... Being in control of what and when I eat vs: "food like" substances controlling me. Homeade pork rinds. YUM!
Went Ketovore a couple of weeks ago with Trulicity. NO hunger. No cravings. Fasting blood sugar 72. After meal blood sugars all in the 90-92 range. NOTHING OVER 100. Losing weight. Walking more. Sleeping better. No depression. No anxiety. More energy. I don’t think I will ever go back.
I just came across your channel. First, I adore your personality. 2nd, I relate to all you are saying, I have many of the symptoms you have. I have Hashimoto’s too. The first thing I noticed was that I felt light instead of bloated, energy, clearer thoughts. My blood pressure improved from hypertension to normal in one week. Couldn’t believe that! I’m not hangry either 😂😂 I subscribed! Thanks for the awesome relatable video! Take care
thank you so much- You are so REAL and Honest! I have struggled with several autoimmune disease's triggered by a high blood pressure pill that gave me LUPUS. am 76 - my hubby of 54 yrs dropped dead 6yrs ago- I have RA which from what I understand from cardiologist is RA can create plaque in arteries-- my right caroid had to have surgery. Had a minor stroke and with this much mental fog and inflammation which I NOW see is due to my diet. I had went on a Plant based diet and lost 30lbs. Then got so could NOT eat Kale, many of my fav veggies. AM SO GRATEFUL to have found you and your dear hubby. It is slowly changing my world.
omg i can relate to this, my hunger cravings have stopped, i can go the whole day without eating with feeling hangry, i used to get really moody when i never used to eat, Ive naturally been doing kind of like an intermittent fast naturally, i just constantly feel saciated throughout the day and i enjoy fats so much now, like fatty meats with a nice salad, thats like my cravings
Another great video! I feel so much better now that I have been eating this way. If I have a desire for something sweet, which rarely happens, I just find a recipe for a keto friendly replacement instead of eating sugary carb filled crap. I have learned so much from y'all. This is now my way of life and I like it!! Thanks so much!!!
Thank you for another great video. You have such a special way of imparting information in such a girlfriend to girlfriend kind of way. Looking forward to the PHD Summit.
Been on this diet for a good 1-2 months. My energy, mental clarity, and anxiety are so much better ❤️🙏🏼🙏🏼 I still struggle with PMS with my periods, but maybe that’ll straighten out too, or at least improve. Still taking a low dose of SSRI, which really helps. 😊
Yes I had panic attack. Know how feel. I thought I was going to die every day and then when I woke up. I got better and then went to the dr. Took meds for about 2 years I finally took myself off the meds. Doing good I got to stay busy. Glad i started watching u.Thank you
I would have panic attacks like that all through out high school, along with daily migraines along with depression, and sense starting my migraines have went away and anxiety has came way down, and now finding I need to nap way less then I need to! It’s great!
Debbie Touchette, I have hypothyroidism as well( Grave disease) a completely thyroidectomy 13yrs ago, i wish knew about keto yrs ago but i was very young. I will start carnivore next month ( September 1st). I am doing keto with intermittent fasting and 2 meals a day. Please keep us updated about your progress 🙏
Great if you considered carnivore. 👍😊Honestly, I did keto 3 times in the past but went back to standard diet every time. Keto involves a lot of cooking and prep cuz a lot of ppl try to replace their sweets, breads, waffles, pancakes, pasta etc. with home-made keto approved ingredients but Carnivore is NEXT LEVEL. You learn to look beyond any type of food that resembles breads, cookies, waffles and pancakes; you only have meat left and it is truly liberating. I highly recommend anyone who is doing Keto to switch to Carnivore (even if for a month) and they will see how much more improvement they will experience.
Your story has helped me so much! Thank you for sharing your experience. I actually wanted to die getting off carbs. I didn’t realize what was happening to my body. I finally feel relieved that there was such a thing called keto flu. Two trips to the ER and my daughter is the one who said I think you have keto flu. All I did was try to cut out cereal. Not realizing the effects it had on my body
New subscriber thank you so much too you and your husband your guys have changed my life for good god bless you and your family regards from Sydney Australia 🇦🇺❤️😍
I love hearing about ur experience! Its so helpful and Encouraging. Im really happy for u finding a way of eating that has improved your overall health so much!💞
I love intermittent fasting (I have been doing it for almost two years). I average 16-20 hrs and I don’t get hangry at all. My husband was amazed when I was able to go so long and not get hangry anymore. I don’t have cravings anymore but struggle with the mental aspect of missing some snack foods (I love ice cream). I am trying to go low carb or keto but have not achieved that yet. It is definitely easy for me to fit in IF (even though no one around me does it) but eating low carb or keto is more difficult for me (because no one around me eats that way).
I’m married to a meat eater/hunter do this was an easy transition for us. It’s helpful when everyone does it. However, I do know your pain because I used to be while food plant based and ate no meat at all. That was a difficult year!
I love the term "Hangry" now I don't feel so alone... 😁 I do OMAD 16-20 as well and I also do a 72-96 hour fast to encourage autophagy... I start to get hangry about halfway through a 72-06 hour fast. My family thinks I am weird... But the results speak for themselves. You might be surprised, but there are creative alternatives for those missed snacks. I found one the other day that actually mimics the "mouth feel" of my beloved Potato Chips... I took the stem and leaves form a cauliflower, put the florets aside for later. Mince it all up in the food processor... Mixed in a couple tablespoons of ACV and a generous serving of "Real Salt" and some pepper (you get a whole LOT of yummy goodness from one small cauliflower too!) and the texture and mouthfeel was so similar? Not to mention it was quite "Cleansing" (but not in a bad way, I get IBS and GERD and neither flared up at all)... That it just might replace my love of Kettle Chips (even if they are cooked in Avacado Oil and salted with Pink salt... My logic center wants to make them a "good" snack🤣 still because there are only three ingredients and two are on the "really good" list 🤣) Sorry, I do go on... After the brain fog went away my love of "Gabbing" returned... Not that anyone can tell...
Thank you!!!! I'm hypo thyroid and recently started noticing that I am feeling less hungry. So excited!!!! I have been on Keto for 3 years after having Pancreatitis 3 times and being given a death sentence if I didn't change my ways.
3:15, 3:41, classic mommy faces!!😄😄😄 Yes, it is so amazing how FOOD was the cause of my emotional state. So much calmer, and NEVER needing a nap around 3 anymore. Still think about sweets (keto) in my 28th day of challenge, but really turned down since beginning of this. I can smell the chemicals in the air when I pass bakeries. Yea...probably ketovore at the end of this...great video👍
The snack foods she described not only had carbs, but wheat and bad oils as well. Carb elimination brings with it the added bonus of creating a healthier eating regimen.
Keto saved my life. I’m down 80lbs, reversed my diabetes, off most of my meds. So much more energy. And I inspired so many of the people I work with including my bosses. :) i really have no desire to go back to my old life. To celebrate I am going to go skydiving. :)
I know this is old, but I have been watching all of them and Dr Ken and it's very inspiring. Ive been healing myself with brain rewiring as I feel allergic to life , live issues, gallbladder issues, interstitial cystitis, fibromyalgia and all the typical " autoimmune/ inflammatory" disorders that nobody can actually help, just mask symptoms of. While I know it isn't recommended, I went mainly carnivore rather cold turkey 2 weeks ago and I can't even begin to say how good I feel, and I've had chronic pain for 5 years now! Too much energy, and only time I had crippling pain was when I indulged in a healthy "candy" on Saturday, and next day I was in so much pain!! Thank you for the effort of doing the videos as they are inspiring.
Brain fog clearing is for me a clear indicator. Memory improvement was brilliant. That was an eye opener. The timeline is different for everyone. Lack of hunger is much quicker (in days) than the brain for clearing, which is weeks .
Hey! I don’t know what was the culprit but I was severely fatigued, brain fog, inflammation, gi reflux and I had my gallbladder-removed years ago .. I’m still tired but I could cry I’m so much better! I’m 56/female from Louisiana!
Thank you! I have Hashi's and brain fog is a huge problem. There is a disconnect between what I intend on saying, and what comes out is way different and makes me sound "dumb." Which I am not either, lol. I have been watching my carbs over the last couple of months and experienced good weight loss. I switched to full Keto today. Wish me luck! Last time I tried Keto I got horrible leg cramps at night and had to stop. I have learned since then, and am well-armed with electrolytes!

![WHAT I EAT EVERY WEEK [ KETOVORE ]](/img/n.gif)
About 3 weeks into going KETO I remember waking up laughing one night, it was as if the happy light was turned on. Brain fog was gone, and inflammation nearly gone, and I'm a Great Grandma!
I can identify with the disappearance of food cravings, mine was sudden, about 4 weeks into Ketovore . I had a hard day babysitting, was tired and thought I’d reward myself with a tiny chocolate caramel flavored custard cone. Just a mini cheat you understand. On my way to the custard stand, my mouth started watering for a big fat juicy hamburger…which had on my dinner menu so I headed home, had two bun less burgers (back then I had to use lettuce wraps, not now) and NEVER needed the custard treat. I was totally satisfied. For 40 years my low fat, calorie restricted plant based diet had set me up for failure.
I consider a cheat day now 9 chocolate chips (65% cacao) thrown in my Two Good yogurt (1/2 a container) with a handful of raw nuts with heavy cream whipped with a tiny bit of stevia. I weigh now what I weighed in high school, I am 67 going on 17! Thanks to Dr Ken Berry and nurse Neisha!
I'm 77, went Carnivore, and had the runs for 18 weeks except 2 days, then suddenly normal. I was about 3 weeks in when suddenly I was no longer hungry and forgetting to eat. At about 6 weeks I did a 72 hour fast. with no problem. By 12 weeks I was no longer having joint pain. Carnivore is amazing. I hadn't been sleeping for months, maybe a year. Had been very depressed and angry. My Hashimotos is better, seldom depressed, no longer on antidepressants, not sure where the anger went.
I have coworkers that say you shouldn’t eat so much meat you need veggie too. All I said is well it works for me and everyone is different and your entitled to your opinion.
Amen! I get that, too. But, leaning harder into carnivore is the way for me as I see improvements and results that were once out of reach. Find your path to heal; stay focused and hopeful.
I had a whole slew of medical issues. Since leaning more toward keto carnivore I have tapered off of almost all my medications and feel better than when I was in my early 20's. This way of eating really does work. I was buying into the whole..."wholefood plant based" hype for almost 2 decades. Just kept getting sicker and sicker. It makes me so mad that people are being lied to about their health.
Susan LeFever, good for you. Co-workers are very into others business, cannot stand it. I lost 15 bls so far doing Keto. Boy oh boy! I hear about it everyday( I eat grass and meat lol). Carnivore next month so they really will talk now 😆
Stephanie Petion good for you keep up the good work
Thank you, Susan.
a month into Keto and when working outside cutting and moving firewood etc, I would like run into a wall, had zero energy left and had to stop work, a few months later and I can just work and work, I end up stopping and still have energy left, used to be if I worked hard one day, next day I was all aches and pains, now I may get a bit achy right after hard work, but next day I am right back to normal, I'm 70
Excellent... I'm 68 so this is encouraging... Most of my life I worked Construction and had energy to burn all day... In my 50's something must have clicked off because suddenly I was struggling and had body aches like mad after work... Now, it seems to be a rising metabolism and I'm happier for sure... Keep on keepin on brother.
@@bosatsu76 Over a year on keto now and my body is 100%. Got my gall bladder working too, no more aches and pains, and I feel great! Bonus, no more acne and prostate has shrunk. I am sleeping through the night now, this is life changing. I tell everyone I can but most people would rather keep eating carbs than lose 30 years.
I agree about the energy level. Until I was fat adapted it was like driving a car with only a small amount of gas in the tank. I was quickly on empty after some exertion. But within 6-8 weeks that feeling went away and my energy level was much more even.
@@marygallagher7392 the good thing is eventually your body becomes fat adapted and can burn both fuels all the time, well depending on what you eat of course
Wow. Your comment from a year ago threw me back two decades when I was racing my classmates and was ahead but hit a wall, I just couldn’t run anymore and stopped in exhaustion. I was so disappointed in myself. Thank you. Probably doesn’t make any sense, but I gained an enlightenment (perhaps a true forgiveness) and it means a lot.
The energy is amazing on keto, just causes insomnia for me sometimes.
Try increasing magnesium in the evenings. It can help with the restlessness.
Himalayan pink salt has 84 vitamins and minerals and high in magnesium :) put a teaspoon in some warm water before bed and you can tell rite away !!! You will start yawning immediately
It’s 4:30am and I am wiiiiiiiidddddeeee awake! So I get the insomnia! Will defs try getting some magnesium!!
@@melissaedwards5689 schumann has been spiking and it can cause hyper activity and insomnia. TH-cam Schumann resonance symptoms people can also have heart palpitations and headaches and ringing in the ears and lots of other symptoms
I drink Snake Juice regularly- himalayan salt, magnesium, baking soda and no-salt (potassium). I've been sleeping better since. Took a week or two to start to slowly help. I've not slept properly for nearly 30 years and this is the only thing to make even a slight difference.
I feel like the best version of myself when im fasting, doing omad with keto. My health, mental and physical, is just better everyday. Its amazing.
I can't believe how easy it is for me to continue being in ketosis. BUT it was very difficult for me to get there - well worth the effort. Feeling stable every day, not being ruled by food, not suddenly running out of energy, getting rid of inflammation in my body. I love everything I eat. Now, if I feel tired I just have a cuppa and sit for a short while and I start reviving. No going back for me!
I have Hashimotos as well, which I'm told is unusual for a man. I took myself off the meds last year after only a couple months on them and have been mostly carnivore since January of this year. I have an appointment to get my bloodwork again in 2 weeks. Yesterday (March 27th) I woke up full of energy. I cleaned up the house some, did several loads of laundry and even exercised. Today I've got energy again and have been doing the same things. After months of being unable to do much of anything, it's been fantastic.
My hashimoto story is so similar, depression & anxiety. I’m much older and was dealing with chronic menopause and what I thought was fibromyalgia chronic pain, and lipolymphedemia.It took me about three months to start feeling better. The brain fog was the first to go. And little by little I started getting my life back. I don’t have the body pain anymore. I get pain back if I eat night shades or too many carbs. It wasn’t fibromyalgia as Dr. Berry explained. And definitely the lower the carbs (under 20) the less hungry. 14 months now and an entirely new person. Can you imagine going through 2020 with all of that sickness! So very grateful to be here.😊
I had a partial hysterectomy because of issues. Now I'm thinking that was my body yelling at me, "WakeUp"! If only I knew then what I know now.
Brenda Kemp It could be. If only we knew then. If only the Dr.s would know! We trusted them in these decisions. But we’re making the good changes now and that’s making a huge difference ❤️
So true....Nightshades are the worst for me too. I wake up with excruciating back pain from my anklyosis spondylitis just hours after consuming peppers or tomatoes. But when it's just meat/eggs or cheese. No pain
Well when you are chronically tired or in pain ( spondylitis, autoimmune disease) ….in my case There is no desire to interact with anyone 😢. Ketovore has helped me tons , everyday I feel better n better
Great video!!
I love you and your wife Huggs Huggs Huggs
Y'all always have great videos. I love you both bunches 😘 y'all have hands down helped save my life. Thanks alot
@@ForsterTKH So to you it is more important to to see numbers written down on a paper than listen to your body's reaction to better health! Wow! Guess you can't decide if a sunset is beautiful because someone didn't write it down on a paper for you! If you want analytics then go look for the medical specialists who can write you a paper. These comments are from real women, and real men too, who are stating how much better they feel when following these different dietary habits. The majority of people love their lives by how they feel today and tomorrow, not by waiting for a chemical report to tell them IF they are feeling good today! Stop being such a pucker puss! Try it for a couple weeks! What harm will 'befall' you other than finding out that you feel better than you did before!
DR BERRY IM DOING KETOVORE MY BS HAS INCREASED FROM 140S TO 365 AT NIGHT 250S AM. IM TAKING GLIPIZIDE AND GLYXAMBI. I THOUGHT EATING THIS DIET WOULD BRING SUGARS DOWN? EATING CLEAN SALADS GREEN BEANS LESS THAN 20GRAMS CARBS DAILY. NO SWEETS
@@reneehutchinson1614 Maybe tweak your diet to a more keto version (more fat less protein). In the meantime, check out this video (Dr. Berry) about gluconeogenesis and the carnivore diet: th-cam.com/video/A36DS6HJxNs/w-d-xo.html
As a fellow nurse...I would nervous eat at work so I had to bring in keto snacks and meals because hospital food is so no no. My days off no problem. Just retired. Yeaheeee!
I’ve been Ketovore for a month and no weight loss. I have a lot going on with my health, though, so I’m trying to be patient. Thank you for this timely video. Hunger pains are gone, I have more energy, and less brain fog. My blood sugar is improving too. I’ll forge on!
Carol R I just want to encourage you to keep going.🥰 I had so many health issues when I started 14 months ago. Hashimoto’s menopause, lymphedema, lipedema, fibromyalgia and a few other issues. I didn’t see weight loss for about 2 months. But I little by little started feeling better. I joined the pateron group and they kept telling me to stay the course. They promised that it gets better. I binge watched Dr. Berry. And watch the zoom with him and Neisha. I’m a different person today. I could hardly walk from room to room because I hurt so bad and was overwhelmed all the time.I had no idea that I could have the energy that I have now! 85 lbs down and chronic pain is gone. I’m no longer desperate, but so encouraged and hopeful and I’m younger at age 60 then I was at 40. You won’t regret staying the course. I PROMISE!😊
corky23 I’m 58, type 2 diabetic, fibromyalgia, IBS, GERD, overweight, and more. I needed your words today! It gets frustrating. I’ve lost ten pounds on low carb/keto with Noom, but I’ve switch to mostly carnivore/keto. Waiting to see results is hard. I thought I was doing something wrong. I’m on Facebook as Carol Reddick. Could we chat more about what you went through?
I look at it this way: you are not going to fix in days, what you spent years wrecking. What is being fixed internally, is probably more important than weight loss. I know that was true with me for hypertension. Keep it up!
Carol R yes carol. I’ll find you and message you😊
There are a lot under your name. Maybe if you look me up. Corrine Ocon and my profile pic is Rise up for children
I totally agree, I was strict Keto for 1 yr. and it rocked my world. I have strayed and now need to get back to the basics. This video has convinced me to do just that. Thank you Neisha for the inspiration.
Thanks for sharing your experience of living with Hashi. I’ve had Hashimoto’s for 42 yrs and have, and still do, experience all you speak off (chronic fatigue, anxiety/depression, weight gain, brain fog, etc.) as well. I’m a retired nurse (72 yrs young and struggling to loose 40 lbs) a former vegan, then vegetarian. This ketovore way of eating is so very foreign to me, but I’m willing to give it a try.
Did it work for you? I'm 75 years old, have Hashi also been on Synthroid for about 35 years now, still suffering with same things! :(
I have always had so much will power that kept me from being morbidly obese like my father & 3 sisters. I became super strict and obsessive over food and exercise. Seriously I was miserable and the struggle was consuming! I should have been diagnosed with an eating disorder but nobody KNEW about that back in the 70’s! I came to keto for some help managing anxiety and depression and I’m doing much better since I transitioned to ketovore. I only WISH I’d known 40 years ago that the weight was gonna fall off and my mind would finally be free! Thanks for your story Neisha. I hope you continue to free people by helping educate your viewers in such a practical, caring and authentic way! 🥰 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
That's amazing!
Thanks for sharing your story.
I'm a fan of survival stories.
If one keeps one's carbohydrate intake to 20 - 30 net grams of carb per day you will fat adapt more efficiently. Some people are actually not getting the carbs low enough at the beginning and this is hindering their progress. Once you have fully fat adapted you may find you can eat up to 50 grams net carb. The best electrolyte drink I use for this process to prevent keto flu and tiredness is a product called simply primal WATERFAST. It has 1000 mg sodium, 1000 mg potassium, calcium and magnesium per scoop. When fat or keto adapting one needs 3000 - 5000 mg of sodium per day and you should be getting at least 3000 - 4700 mg potassium as well. This drink really helps with the transition and preventing electrolyte loss as you adapt. The potassium is just as important as the sodium and magnesium. If you are plagued with muscle cramps take 400 - 500 mg of magnesium glycinate each morning. Many people are deficient and don't realize it.
Just want to say you’re the reason I went ketovore. I have Hashimoto’s and all sorts of mental problems plus traumas. Thank you for using this platform to reach thousands of people. ❤️😊
I can’t wait for the energy. I am 8 days in but I am older so I am patient
I am so glad I found you and Dr. Berry! My hashimoto's symptoms are nearly non-existent since going carnivore! It is an amazing relief to finally feel like myself again after years of feeling like I was just a passenger in someone else's body.
excellent testimonial... i also had serious problems with brain fog. I used to eat tones of bananas, dates and dried fruits, rolled oats, protein bars etc... thinking that because they were natural they were "healthy". I had a compulsive hunger hours after meals, I had severe bouts of anxiety and severe burnout. I felt that something was very wrong with my mind and Extreme difficulty in concentrating on very simple things. After watching videos and read the studies about this subject and research metabolic effects of the brain. I suspected the bizarre amount of sugar intake on my diet and decided to severely restrict my sugar intake using a source of good fats as a source of Calories .. and boom! Everything changed in my life
You're literally my favorite person on TH-cam. I really appreciate how real and honest you are. You're videos are helping me so much. Thank you Neisha! ❤️
Good video Neisha!! Keeping info simple but powerful. Your story is my story. I am 68. have been keto/carnivore for 15 months, started keto for extreme inflammation and pain. Later diag with 2 auto immune (PMR and PN) I am under doctor care with meds and its all working for me. But staying keto and fasting is the best part for help in pain and inflammation and carb sugar craves gone! Like Dr. berry and Dr. berg says "fix your diet first and that will start healing in your body" so true, so true. Keto is not a diet, it is a way of life. Sugar, carbs run thru your blood and cause so much damage to your nerves and the pain will show up in auto immune, my feet killed me for 3 yrs of pain!! Give up sugars, carbs. I am adding b12 and nutrition yeast now to help with the nerve damage that was done and continue my doctors care, last visit he said stay with the keto course it will help you. I went from 182 lbs in 2019 to 164 now, still hoping I can lose a few more pounds but not pushing that, just staying the course with keto and IF and my body will decide what's best. Love you, Mean it!! your sweet
I don’t have words to express how important your Hashimoto testimony was to me. I started keto a month ago and my brain fog is still bad. Like you, it is my worse symptom. You helped me have faith that it will improve. It feels like I’m locked inside my brain. Listening to you helps me so much! ❤️
Same here! I'm 74 and thinking "is this how dementia starts?" I'm 10 days into my new LCHF world (KETO to come?) and very optimistic.
@@pattismithurs9023 Dementia and Alzheimers is now called Type 3 diabetes. It's exactly how it happens. Keto plus fasting will help you. You want to be making Ketones.
Ketones does to Dementia what Acetone does to paint.
How are you doing these days? I have hashimotos and am on day 2 of strict carnivore, lying in bed with no energy and certainly not feeling sharp!
Been back on keto for two weeks. I can already feel some of these signs. Brain fog and energy are the main ones. Looking forward to what is coming
I agree with you so much. I have been on carnivore / keto for 2 months now. My memory is so much better. I'm 53 and was so worried wondering what was going to happen to me as I got older. Dementia and all. I use to have to write EVERYTHING down. Now I don't have too nearly as much and I feel normal again. My energy levels have totally changed. I run up the stairs again. Lost 16 kilos so far. Hardly have any cravings too. I enjoy this way of eating and not feeling deprived at all. I feel it's totally sustainable. Make my own mayonnaise now with MCT oil and it tastes amazing. Making lots of stuff I never thought I would before. I don't have a sweet tooth so I'm good with that. My only craving is pizza to be honest. But I can handle it. Not fighting myself over it either. Feeling great. Glad you are too.
Great work! Can you share your manyonnaise recipe please?
You are so lucky to have a spouse that was supportive and wanted to help you.
more energy,
brain fog goes away
less anxiety
not depressed
don't feel hungry or hangry
stop craving junk food
food choices changed by choice
I started keto on 2018. 209# I binged on dr Berg and dr Berry and others. Knowing it could take weeks I just ignored it. Then one day I had zero hunger. Like I had to force myself. I also had no cravings. That’s how I knew. Lost 35# from March 18- December. Slow! I’m 63 now. It’s harder. You youngins get to it now!!!!!
I truly appreciate you taking the time to explain Fat Adapted...cause I was ready to throw in the towel and go back to IF, which I've been able to do easily, and to do the next milestone...Zero to low carbs! Because I gained 3lbs, after losing 40lbs!!!
So again thank you so very much for sharing these snippets of how to know when you are Fat Adapted!!!
It’s really nice not having to constantly fight off cravings!
6 months Keto on September 3rd! Changing my life I love it! I have thyroid issues as well and it’s helping me feel like I used to! Thanks for the videos!
I started keto back in January. I felt horrible the first week, a really bad case of the keto flu but at the same time, I noticed that most of my chronique pain was gone. That’s what motivated me to stick with it since I didn’t do it for weight loss but I’m happy about the weight I have loss in the belly area 😁.I also have much less anxiety. The quality of my life has improved so much ! Thank you for your informative and heartfelt video .
I've been intermittent fasting on regular carb rich diet for 2 months and suspect my insulin level is better. I recently added Keto 2 weeks ago and have also seen the energy coming up noticeably. I also noticed the brain fog lifting, didn't even realize I had it, but the increase in clarity of thought is significant. The biggest bonus so far is the lowering of my blood pressure. I take meds for high blood pressure, but my pressure was going too low and I was dizzy a lot. I stopped taking the meds 3 days ago and now my blood pressure is normal.😁
You and Doctor B are my favorite TH-cam keto informers. When I feel discouraged, I watch one of your videos and feel inspired to stick with Keto. Thank you for your videos, I surely am enjoying them. I'm hoping my adult children will give Keto an honest try. Blessings to you 💗🦋💗🦋
Thanks Neish! This was so helpful! I've been getting disheartened during my keto journey. I have insulin resistance and PCOS so things tend to happen much slower for me, but like you, I naturally started intermittent fasting as I wasn't hungry and now am more in tune with hunger. You don't over complicate things and I'm grateful for that. ❤️
This sounds like my experience so far. I’ve been Keto for 2 months now and I can’t imagine ever going back to the exhaustion, the anxiety, or the brain fog. Bye! Won’t miss ya! 😂
I have diabetes and hashimotos and 45 pounds overweight and approaching 50. I recently had Covid but it was the fatigue that took over more than the actual virus. I’ve been watching your videos and I’ve decided to start ketovore. Thanks so much for giving me the push I’ve been needing for the past five years. I’m so sick of feeling sick
I relate so much to this. I am 51 menopausal, prediabetic, and I have hypothyroidism and need to lose 45 lbs. A year ago I came down with shingles and debilitating fatigue. All these conditions make losing weight impossible, but seeing a similar struggle in someone else means I am not alone. I am right there with you sick and tired of being sick and tired. Best of luck on your journey!
Love it .....Your not pretending to be anything but REAL ...Gorgeous women don’t do that very much. Could listen to you and hubby everyday...but chasing grandkids🥰
Neisha, Thank you so much!! You are like a breath of fresh air!! I love the way you pour your Heart and Soul into these videos and are just so candid...It is so helpful to have people like you out there that are will to share their victories and defeats so that we can all learn...ALSO, you just make me smile!!
Thank you for sharing. Your transparency has helped me and I’m sure has / is helping others as well.
I have noticed how you have evolved for better in every way after years in your life. Glad for you. ☺️🙏🏼
I've been at the ketovore for less than a week (Started Aug 1, 21)... Day three I noticed a heat in my chest and face and arms. Thinking the thyroid is coming alive and my metabolism is rising... Looking forward to the future now rather than being depressed about getting old and slow.
I had "brain fog" so bad I thought I was in the beginning stages of dementia. After several weeks of low carbohydrates (idk how many) most the aggravating fog disappeared.
I’ve been watching you for since I started Keto.... about 2 years now... and I absolutely love you girl! You’ve grown a lot! In a good way (of course ;)). Love your videos. Thank you for sharing it all with us! You’re so positive and true full! I can relate with many things!
I thought my kids were screaming upstairs then! watching with headphones is Awesome 😂 was supposed to be watching The Meg but ended up here
Thank you…this was really helpful!
My story is similar to yours. One of the biggest difference to your story is that I always had painful migraine everytime I indulged in a little bit of fatty food. The kind of headache that eventually made me incapable of doing any work and incapable of thinking about anything other than the throbbing pain in my head. This made me more serious to look for an alternative lifestyle (even though I had always maintained a healthy lifestyle). I had always eaten half the portion of rice of the people around me. Now I just don't eat rice at all. I'm so thankful! :)
Thank you! Just starting my keto journey. I'm watching Dr. B and your videos constantly.
Neisha, this is really good. Informative yet you make us feel as if we are there with you.
You also look amazing.
Good Morning! I’m new to your channel. I’ve been watching your husbands videos and because of him I decided to go carnivore.
I just wanted to say hello 👋 and I love your channel. Have a beautiful day! 🌺🌸
Thank you 😊
Neisha Loves It You’re Welcome 😊
So cute...that little munchkin in the background. Thank you For this video Neisha!!
I've had panic attacks like that since I was 9 years old. I'm 40 now. I'm hoping for keto to help me like that.
Remember to take Vitamin D3 and K2-7 along with eating lots of salad greens everyday for minerals and vitamib C. You also need omega 3,s.
I use to have these panic attacks too, thinking I can't breathe and I'm going to die from not getting my air! I haven't had one in a long, long time. I do mostly carnivore, kind of ketovore. It really helps, and so many other things it helps too.
Hi Wendy, can you tell me how you did with Keto? I'm entering a new phase and want to start with Keto and then head in to carnivore. Any feedback would be appreciative. Thanks, Rob
Hallelujah!!! That is one of the best side effects of eating this way... Being in control of what and when I eat vs: "food like" substances controlling me. Homeade pork rinds. YUM!
You explain fat adaption so well
You are helping so many people. Thank you
Went Ketovore a couple of weeks ago with Trulicity. NO hunger. No cravings. Fasting blood sugar 72. After meal blood sugars all in the 90-92 range. NOTHING OVER 100. Losing weight. Walking more. Sleeping better. No depression. No anxiety. More energy. I don’t think I will ever go back.
I just came across your channel. First, I adore your personality. 2nd, I relate to all you are saying, I have many of the symptoms you have. I have Hashimoto’s too. The first thing I noticed was that I felt light instead of bloated, energy, clearer thoughts. My blood pressure improved from hypertension to normal in one week. Couldn’t believe that!
I’m not hangry either 😂😂
I subscribed! Thanks for the awesome relatable video! Take care
thank you so much- You are so REAL and Honest! I have struggled with several autoimmune disease's triggered by a high blood pressure pill that gave me LUPUS. am 76 - my hubby of 54 yrs dropped dead 6yrs ago- I have RA which from what I understand from cardiologist is RA can create plaque in arteries-- my right caroid had to have surgery. Had a minor stroke and with this much mental fog and inflammation which I NOW see is due to my diet. I had went on a Plant based diet and lost 30lbs. Then got so could NOT eat Kale, many of my fav veggies. AM SO GRATEFUL to have found you and your dear hubby. It is slowly changing my world.
omg i can relate to this, my hunger cravings have stopped, i can go the whole day without eating with feeling hangry, i used to get really moody when i never used to eat, Ive naturally been doing kind of like an intermittent fast naturally, i just constantly feel saciated throughout the day and i enjoy fats so much now, like fatty meats with a nice salad, thats like my cravings
Another great video! I feel so much better now that I have been eating this way. If I have a desire for something sweet, which rarely happens, I just find a recipe for a keto friendly replacement instead of eating sugary carb filled crap. I have learned so much from y'all. This is now my way of life and I like it!! Thanks so much!!!
Thank you for another great video. You have such a special way of imparting information in such a girlfriend to girlfriend kind of way. Looking forward to the PHD Summit.
Shelley W. Here very encouraging! Love your food tips too!
You know when you look at beef brisket liver and bacon and fall in love
Neisha is just great! So relatable, interesting, and a joy to listen to. God bless you Neisha. 🥰
Been on this diet for a good 1-2 months. My energy, mental clarity, and anxiety are so much better ❤️🙏🏼🙏🏼 I still struggle with PMS with my periods, but maybe that’ll straighten out too, or at least improve. Still taking a low dose of SSRI, which really helps. 😊
Great video! I’ve lost 85 lbs so far and the energy I have now is amazing. I’ll never go back to the SAD way of eating.
I just said something similar the other day... How SAD is the perfect acronym for SAD... 🤣
How long did it take? I’m losing too!
Call*Me*AL about a year.
@@hopenelson3997 thanks
Yes I had panic attack. Know how feel. I thought I was going to die every day and then when I woke up. I got better and then went to the dr. Took meds for about 2 years I finally took myself off the meds. Doing good I got to stay busy. Glad i started watching u.Thank you
I would have panic attacks like that all through out high school, along with daily migraines along with depression, and sense starting my migraines have went away and anxiety has came way down, and now finding I need to nap way less then I need to! It’s great!
Thank you! I’m hypo thyroid, really want to put carnivore to the test!
Debbie Touchette, I have hypothyroidism as well( Grave disease) a completely thyroidectomy 13yrs ago, i wish knew about keto yrs ago but i was very young. I will start carnivore next month ( September 1st). I am doing keto with intermittent fasting and 2 meals a day. Please keep us updated about your progress 🙏
Great if you considered carnivore. 👍😊Honestly, I did keto 3 times in the past but went back to standard diet every time. Keto involves a lot of cooking and prep cuz a lot of ppl try to replace their sweets, breads, waffles, pancakes, pasta etc. with home-made keto approved ingredients but Carnivore is NEXT LEVEL. You learn to look beyond any type of food that resembles breads, cookies, waffles and pancakes; you only have meat left and it is truly liberating. I highly recommend anyone who is doing Keto to switch to Carnivore (even if for a month) and they will see how much more improvement they will experience.
I have hypothyroidism and I've lost 37lb 4 mnths with lowering my carbs and doing intermittent fasting. Finally something that works!

Your story has helped me so much! Thank you for sharing your experience. I actually wanted to die getting off carbs. I didn’t realize what was happening to my body. I finally feel relieved that there was such a thing called keto flu. Two trips to the ER and my daughter is the one who said I think you have keto flu. All I did was try to cut out cereal. Not realizing the effects it had on my body
Great information; thank you for sharing. I don't seem to have enough willpower to get past the first days. Back to it today. Have a wonderful day.
Take it one day at a time♥️
Congrats to a first class lady!
New subscriber thank you so much too you and your husband your guys have changed my life for good god bless you and your family regards from Sydney Australia 🇦🇺❤️😍
I love hearing about ur experience! Its so helpful and Encouraging. Im really happy for u finding a way of eating that has improved your overall health so much!💞
You sound like me just without Hashimotos. Anxiety, hangry, panic attacks etc. Good to see that this "diet" is benifital.
I lost my sugary cravings... so grateful!
I love intermittent fasting (I have been doing it for almost two years). I average 16-20 hrs and I don’t get hangry at all. My husband was amazed when I was able to go so long and not get hangry anymore. I don’t have cravings anymore but struggle with the mental aspect of missing some snack foods (I love ice cream). I am trying to go low carb or keto but have not achieved that yet. It is definitely easy for me to fit in IF (even though no one around me does it) but eating low carb or keto is more difficult for me (because no one around me eats that way).
I’m married to a meat eater/hunter do this was an easy transition for us. It’s helpful when everyone does it. However, I do know your pain because I used to be while food plant based and ate no meat at all. That was a difficult year!
I am the only one In my family who eats keto and i eat st different times to them to, so dont worry to much your doing it alone. You can do it.
I love the term "Hangry" now I don't feel so alone... 😁 I do OMAD 16-20 as well and I also do a 72-96 hour fast to encourage autophagy... I start to get hangry about halfway through a 72-06 hour fast. My family thinks I am weird... But the results speak for themselves.
You might be surprised, but there are creative alternatives for those missed snacks. I found one the other day that actually mimics the "mouth feel" of my beloved Potato Chips... I took the stem and leaves form a cauliflower, put the florets aside for later.
Mince it all up in the food processor... Mixed in a couple tablespoons of ACV and a generous serving of "Real Salt" and some pepper (you get a whole LOT of yummy goodness from one small cauliflower too!) and the texture and mouthfeel was so similar? Not to mention it was quite "Cleansing" (but not in a bad way, I get IBS and GERD and neither flared up at all)...
That it just might replace my love of Kettle Chips (even if they are cooked in Avacado Oil and salted with Pink salt... My logic center wants to make them a "good" snack🤣 still because there are only three ingredients and two are on the "really good" list 🤣)
Sorry, I do go on... After the brain fog went away my love of "Gabbing" returned... Not that anyone can tell...
Make sure you eat at least 5 cups of salad greens everyday with an avocado. Watch Dr. Berg videos for help!
I’m on day 7 of my 40 day water fast. Will go back to keto afterwards.
It put the demon away. Those cravings and carb hunger on the glucose Roller coaster can definitely feel hellish! Great video !
Neisha, This is wonderful. Keep posting this type of video.
Thank you!!!! I'm hypo thyroid and recently started noticing that I am feeling less hungry. So excited!!!! I have been on Keto for 3 years after having Pancreatitis 3 times and being given a death sentence if I didn't change my ways.
3:15, 3:41, classic mommy faces!!😄😄😄 Yes, it is so amazing how FOOD was the cause of my emotional state. So much calmer, and NEVER needing a nap around 3 anymore. Still think about sweets (keto) in my 28th day of challenge, but really turned down since beginning of this. I can smell the chemicals in the air when I pass bakeries. Yea...probably ketovore at the end of this...great video👍
I have watched tons of your videos & I think this one is my very favorite! Thank you for sharing this with us.
The snack foods she described not only had carbs, but wheat and bad oils as well. Carb elimination brings with it the added bonus of creating a healthier eating regimen.
Keto saved my life. I’m down 80lbs, reversed my diabetes, off most of my meds. So much more energy. And I inspired so many of the people I work with including my bosses. :) i really have no desire to go back to my old life. To celebrate I am going to go skydiving. :)
How did i ever miss this video? Glad it popped up! ❤
I know this is old, but I have been watching all of them and Dr Ken and it's very inspiring. Ive been healing myself with brain rewiring as I feel allergic to life , live issues, gallbladder issues, interstitial cystitis, fibromyalgia and all the typical " autoimmune/ inflammatory" disorders that nobody can actually help, just mask symptoms of.
While I know it isn't recommended, I went mainly carnivore rather cold turkey 2 weeks ago and I can't even begin to say how good I feel, and I've had chronic pain for 5 years now! Too much energy, and only time I had crippling pain was when I indulged in a healthy "candy" on Saturday, and next day I was in so much pain!!
Thank you for the effort of doing the videos as they are inspiring.
I need to find this milkshake bar that also makes and serves pork rinds!
Boy I do not miss those 12-14 hr shifts! (I also worked L&D)
Keto is king for sure🙏🏿👏🏿👍🏿👊🏿
🙌🏻 agreed 🤩
Brain fog clearing is for me a clear indicator. Memory improvement was brilliant. That was an eye opener. The timeline is different for everyone.
Lack of hunger is much quicker (in days) than the brain for clearing, which is weeks .
Hey! I don’t know what was the culprit but I was severely fatigued, brain fog, inflammation, gi reflux and I had my gallbladder-removed years ago .. I’m still tired but I could cry I’m so much better! I’m 56/female from Louisiana!
Thank you for this.
My problem is not that l am hungry it is the cravings that has not gone away - Even after two years of successful keto/ketovore
Thank you! I have Hashi's and brain fog is a huge problem. There is a disconnect between what I intend on saying, and what comes out is way different and makes me sound "dumb." Which I am not either, lol. I have been watching my carbs over the last couple of months and experienced good weight loss. I switched to full Keto today. Wish me luck! Last time I tried Keto I got horrible leg cramps at night and had to stop. I have learned since then, and am well-armed with electrolytes!
My daughter in law is 32 with thyroid problems. I will pass this information on to her.
Watch your husband channel. And just discovered your channel. So looking forward to follow you!
Thank you, you got me to dive into my keto air-fryer cookbook and try to be fat adapted as well.😇
