I think it's the way we are raised. Our parents force us to clean our plates no matter what, even if we're full or just not hungry. And we wonder why we grow up with an eating disorder and overeat, and feel we have to clean the plate no matter what.
@@ashexxxx I would not put my trust in a man, and offle is full of iron and that can harm your gole bladder. I say pray over you food first✝️. Most things have lead in it. It comes from eroding pipes under the ground, paints, toys, makeup, floor boards etc. Lead is very cancerous.✔
Low carb high fat and eating less frequently has been the only thing that has decreased my cravings. My friend at work is not even doing keto but lowered her carbs and started eating avocados and she said her sugar cravings stopped. Keep going everyone.
Yeah. I just kicked up my fats and protein, got rid of white starches, and feel great. Stomach has shrunk making high volume (even veggies) very uncomfortable.
I overeat everyday even when im full and not enjoying food which I think is for emotional reasons! I do have insuline resistence, inflammation, and sleep apnea so this video is very accurate!
Staying in ketosis is what brought me control with overeating! I would rather other things worked but it took ketosis to tame my carb cravings. Now I only get hungry 1 or 2 times per day. Fasting plus ketosis makes losing fat and controlling appetite work. Not in and out of ketosis. That makes me hungry, irritable, and depressed. But staying in ketosis - that is what it took. It is worth it.
For me, I feel I have to eat everything on my plate... even if that plate is the entire container of something. I’m working every day to learn not to do this. One day at a time.
I always appreciate Dr Bergs compassionate tone. Though he sees people eating in a way that perpetuates health problems, he explains the biology of why its a vicious cycle people need to understand rather than ridiculing them. He knows there are years of overstimulating foods, enticing sugars marketing of big companies as well as our own natural taste bud tendencies that have been hijacked. Thank you for patiently , thoroughly and persistently educating us so we can break free.
I’ve been doing really good on OMAD and I had an urge to go get a burger and fries tonight. I ended up going to the grocery store and picked up 1.5 lbs of wild caught sockeye. I’m so glad I didn’t give in and eat carbs.
Not in my case either. Been IF for about 8 months...6 hr eating window I could eat the whole fridge if I didnt stop myself. I consume about 1k calories, then 2 hr later about 500 cal then another 1k later. I could eat more
I am born in a restaurant, what could be better is the cheap vegetable oil (not high-end restaurants ofc) , and generally veggies not washed properly (not all veggies ofc). So really not worse than most households, besides that all good mate.
I know the day is coming.....stressful! My body wants more food but can't let it happen with junk food so gave more avocados and tons of greens! Still bloated thought LOL ATE TOO MUCH
lovelyone0509 please explain me some more I am over eater and lately my period is very light it can be that please if u have more experience explain me some more
Its amazing how we're brought up to feed money to the food industry and all we get in return is fat, sick, tired, broke, and dead. I stopped supersizing my meals long ago. That's just more money missing from my wallet and more girth added to my mid-section. No thanks. Great video Dr. Berg. Keep 'em coming.
I agree. I feel happier, bouncier and more productive when I’m 50%-60% full and then tell myself I’ll snack in 3-4 hours. It really helps! Being bloated is a sore feeling, physically and mentally
I’ve read it’s best to stop eating when you are still just a tiny bit hungry. You have to leave room for proper digestion, it makes sense to me. One big thing that’s helped me is making a conscious effort to chew my food until there is no chunks, completely liquified. This forced me to slow down and it’s helped my digestive system tremendously. I also try to time my meals by the circadian rhythm, we produce our most digestive juices when the sun is out. More digestive juices means less undigested food in my body…I will take all the help I can get.
In America we are trained to overeat, or so it seems...........99 cent hamburgers, buffets everywhere and open salad bars, fill your tank, eat until you pop. Thanksgiving, Christmas, Easter and every other holiday people gather on to "celebrate" or "socialize" common denominator: WAY TO MUCH FOOD!!!!!!! In this country it is a lifestyle or even a way of life.....obesity is off the charts!!!!! America is FULL of excesses, but I think food is the main "drug" here.
I haven't seen any for several years, fidel. I was using this as a metaphor to illustrate my point about the way people use and think about food in this country, make sense??
I have been eating like this a couple times a day, and indulging in anything and everything I want for about a year now, which is the first and only year I have been sober in 26 years. I know BETTER, but I was very thin and drinking 24/7 for over a decade so I had to do something to finally save my life. I wish I had you personally to help me transition back to a healthy relationship with myself and my diet and weight. I started at 114 lbs and now weigh 178 . I am 5'8. I am going to watch all your videos and thank you so much for reminding me I have to do better.
I don't do OMAD anymore because I can't take in even half the calories needed for the day with it. My portions nowadays are tiny. Growing up, we were only allowed to order an appetizer size portion....not even an entree. No (actual) appetizer, no dessert. Probably a good habit learned there, the few times I have gone to a restaurant, I still adhere to that, even at my biggest.
„Sleep apnea is insulin resistance by the way“ Doc is saying it like it‘s self-evident whereas it‘s probably the most mind-blowingly useful information I got today (next to the fact that when the gallbladder swells up from inflammation your right shoulder area hurts, which was my precise case a while back)
With intermittent fasting I can't eat much because my stomache has "shrunk". My portions are smaller and I am happy to quit eating sooner. Also, I never eat away from home as I can't afford it. 😉
Intermittent fasting is a great money saving technique actually. You dont need to eat as much because of the shrunk stomach and you're getting all the vitamins and nutrients into your cell because there is no insulin resistance. Although im not sure how to build muscle on IF
Totally agree with the late eating window. I could never get into eating in the morning so it was natural for me to keep fasting through lunch and eat only in the evening. Just remember it doesn't work well if you stay up late on the weekend!
I was taught at a young age my stomach was no larger than two fists put together, and not to stretch it out of shape. Still, it's easy to overeat calorie wise if you don't feel full. Eating enough fat to satiate is so important and cutting out simple carbs that breakdown into sugar to keep that nasty hunger hormone away-ghrelin is essential for battling cravings. Thanks for your free videos.
What’s ghrelin? I only eat once a day & it’s usually 2 eggs & 1 avocado. But if I add 1 banana or a can of pineapples I feel stuffed. I also drink ACV & lemon juice with it.
Very interesting explanation... I’d be curious to know what happens when someone happens to overeat on healthy food - veggies, protein and fat. I know it not to be a good idea, but I’d love to understand that process.
I just had a super large meal combined with just veggies, protein and fat that comes from nuts (really just healthy food) but it’s way to much and I feel miserable now
I'm 33 6,1" and 335 lbs have high blood pressure i over eat all the time I consume energy drinks and smoke weed and cigarettes and drink whisky and struggle with my addictions. I really like watching your vids the information you share does help a little.
That is absolutely correct, Dr Berg. In Deepak Chopra's "Just Listen! Your body is speaking to you" (can't quite remember if it was a book or an article, I jotted it down in 2010), one can read: (COPY/PASTE) Let's say your body doesn't feel like your guide and friend. Why not? It's not because you gained weight, fallen out of shape or are depressed... It is Lack Of Awareness. Awareness has tremendous power. (Hence Conscious Eating.) It tunes into every cell. Awareness is invisible. It lets my body know what my mind is thinking. I become aware of my thoughts and it also sends feed-backs from the body.. The body sends signals. Every cell of the body follows those signals perfectly. If you are not paying attention to the signals, you are working against the flow of nature, which is the Flow Of Life. When Mind-Spirit-Body are in Harmony = Happiness is a natural state. You feel good. Discomfort, pain, depression, anxiety are disharmony. = Feeling UNHAPPINESS is thus a form of feedback. Treat it like an indication, don't get mad at yourself for feeling "bad". It simply signals that disharmony has entered somewhere: either in the mind or body. (Since form follows thought, it is more likely the mind..) It simply means: AWARENESS HAS BECOME DISCONNECTED. Only when you look at your situation this Holistic Way is when we can link Health to Wholeness and Holiness. For all three share the same root word and all three share the states of harmony and disharmony. They have a correlate in the brain and through the nervous system the brain makes every cell Aware that you have an issue... With other words, your entire body-mind field is responding to every single pain or pleasure! The body-mind field IS Aware. You have to consciously pay attention to it, to what your body is telling you - by feeling it, thus Awareness will arise. This Awareness is silent & intuitive. Simply by paying attention, it infiltrates every corner of the field. .... but the opposite is also true. When you withdraw Awareness, disruptions occur. The Feedback loops no longer operate as they should = thus the flow of energy needed by every cell, begins to diminish. Your body becomes more like a neglected child = being ignored when it cries. You must re-connect with it again. (...but gosh humans are so used to that 'numb' state.. with the question being: WHY did you want to be sedated the first place?) Basically, good digestion rules the world! That's my conclusion. It's also in the Book: Supreme Personality by Delmer Eugene Croft. EXERCISE: 1. The next time you are looking for food or are tempted to overeat, focus on what your body is saying, ask: How do I feel at this moment? Either you are truly hungry or you feel something you don't want to feel (in yr mind) and by eating, you are suppressing that particular discomfort. So now, PAUSE before you reach. See how you'll feel (surely gonna get anxious) but tell your mind that you CAN have that food afterwards. In that Allowing, your wanting will loosen..... then just go ahead and proceed as you wish: follow that impulse to either eat or just turn around and start doing something if you can resist the craving. BOTH are good because now you are doing it AWARE. This realization will add another dimension to your action. Keep doing this every single time when you feel like munching on something. (It is usually while watching TH-cam lately... ppl kind of, sort of just sit there 'doing nothing' and automatically want to grab something to eat. We can possibly call it, eating out of boredom.) 2. The second part of the exercise is when you actually start writing down that specific feeling, - just like DR BERG says. Next time you feel cravings, don't just PAUSE but grab your Notebook and be as specific as you can be by describing it, (yes it is very confronting, don't ask...) but keep answering the question: WHAT DO I FEEL AT THIS MOMENT? Jot down all the anger, anxiousness, scarcity, emptiness... then again, proceed as you wish: either follow the impulse to eat or just turn and start doing something.. 3. The third step is, (when you get tempted again) to PAUSE again when you sat & wrote down your feelings, now, go inward and just BE with the uncomfortable feeling. Just sit there. Tell yourself; for one whole minute I'm gonna just sit here (instead of grabbing some food right away). That PAUSE is going to give you all kinds of mixed up emotions. You're gonna be even longing for a hug, because you'll realize it's not really food that you want, so ask the next question: WHAT AM I TRULY HUNGRY FOR? ... then again proceed as you wish, either follow the impulse to eat or just turn and start doing something. (You'll notice that each time you get further and further, mastering your skill of BEING AWARE = MINDFUL.) 4. The fourth step is to SERVE YOUR FEELINGS OF PAIN, DISCOMFORT, DEPRESSION THE RIGHT WAY. Instead of Self-Medicating through food, you can now follow the appropriate channels. This could simply mean: carrying out a task that you've been avoiding (in my case it was some paperwork and every time I got myself so far to actually DO it, I just made myself a meal... I really didn't see how I could complete that task so I just avoided it for as long as I could), or as serious as checking yourself into a clinic or going to see a therapist. RESULT: The idea is that if you keep doing the exercise, - either all 4 steps at once or just one by one each time - until one day, you'll be able to just STAY AWARE of your feelings but NOT FALL FOR THE EMOTION. You will not lose sight of your thoughts, you will stay connected. You become more like a witness who 'watches' every thought rise and fall. In many many cases, it is just one particular thing we try to keep away from (like in my case) and once that task is completed, the actual craving dissipates automatically. It really won't be "hard" to "not eat" after that, because you solved the issue of WHY you have been (over)eating the first place. In other cases, it can be someone you have issues with or miss, angry at, try to avoid, or don't want confrontation but it's gonna happen anyway, feeling of self-blame and you punish yourself with food or as simple as being scared of being hungry... etc.. Sometimes it takes some what more action, more realization or time to remove the obstacle that kept you captive. GOOD LUCK. - I send love to everyone, STELL' xx.. EDIT: I see at the end of my notes: Deepak Chopra: Re-inventing The Body, Resurrecting The Soul and The Ultimate Happiness Prescription. X
I've been overeating and I feel sick. It's hard for me to find a balance. Sometimes I go three days without eating at all, other times I stuff myself like crazy with any pleasurable food I can find. I hate it. Most of the time I eat keto and do intermittent fasting though. I have gastritis and it's been getting worse. Thank you for your videos and friendly advice.
These patient, scientific explanations have done much more for me than the videos of bodybuilders cheering over stock music. Not ripping on them at all, I'm just grateful I found this channel because I think this "teaching style" resonates with me more.
Eva Adamska In short... the better I take care of myself, the better and longer I will be able to take care of others and need less help myself as I age. I want my choices to help me take care of others not need more people to take care of me in the future. What we do or don’t do effects other people. The less I need from others, the more I can be a giver to others. The greater good. Hope that helps. I want to be a giver in life and less of a needer. It is more peaceful for me.
I've never eaten to the point where I felt sick, but when I started fasting I would load up on more food than I probably needed because I didn't realise that I could last a long time on just one plate. Sometimes I don't even eat to the point of complete fullness and I go 20 or so hours before needing another meal. It's pretty great.
Thank you again Dr!! I enjoy watching your videos. They’re short, straight to the point, extremely easy to follow, and full of valuable information!! I’ve shared many with family and friends.
I am struggling to wrap my mind around competing concepts: 1. Don't cut calories too much due to possible metabolic rate falling. 2. Eat in a small window. 3. Don't overeat when you eat. (Even though you are still trying to get macros and calories in. 4. Eat a ton of veggies per day which must be eaten within one or two meals a day. 5. Eat fats and proteins after you are stuffed to the rafters after eating a ton of veggies. But, make sure you dont forget #3. 6. Only eat when hungry. But you better hope you are hungry within the small window. 7.Stop when full. Even if you havent consumed enough calories. Bloody hell. I am trying to stay motivated but damn. Please unravel some things for me.
Chris exactly. If you want my 2cents, I look at these videos, I take high level principles, but I think for myself, use my common sense, and listen very carefully to my body. I now have more success than during December when I tried to copy and paste these videos
Yes Dr Berg, it did happen to me😂 Thanks to one of the videos you were talking about overeating, I stopped overeating. Thank you so much for teaching us. You're amazing!!
Dang this is so me. I have binge eating disorder. Once I start eating I can’t stop and it gets painful to the point where I can barely breath or walk afterwards
That's why I avoid restaurants. Soon as they bring me the document called "dessert menu" I get my pen and sign an agreement to a day or several of gut pain, bloating and terrible farts afterwards.
Oh gosh! I’m so relieved. I have been a bad late night snacker and since I’ve started intermittent fasting have narrowed my eating time to the evenings. I have felt some guilt about it , until I saw Dr B declare it’s an ok strategy whew
I'm fairly new to intermittent fasting and I love it, but I notice that I do tend to overeat simply to reach a decent number of calories within the time frame.
You helped me more than any GP, doctor or NHS has helped me. Thank you!!! My health is not quite their yet but I believe all you videos will get me their eventually I'm not eating anything after my big lunch today. Yes too much food lol It was healthy food but too much and fell asleep. This video came just in time :)
This was an excellent message. I have an eating disorder. I am grateful that i acquired willingness and life skills to combat obesity. Thank you for your videos.
Hey Dr. Berg, would you consider doing a video on portion sizes or portion control? I think the reason most people over eat is because we as a nation have this false concept of how big our meals should be... I myself am guilty of this most of the time lol
This is exactly what I did starting out with your HK and IF. I jumped right into 16:8 with breakfast just being a nutritious coffee and lunch being as diverse and large as can be. I was always bloated, stuffed to the point where I couldn't move for an hour after eating and the small love handles remained stubborn. It took a few months for my brain to relax, be confident that I DO cover all the necessary nutrients daily, and I therefore produced a healthy amount of Leptin ( i think that's what it's called) in my brain that told me to stop eating when I was full - NOT stuffed. This allowed me to slowly drop another 6 lbs over time and the small love handles on the sides have disappeared. Took about 5 months to calm my brain down. Now I care less if I eat on any given day or not. Female, 48 yrs, 175cm tall, 57 kg. Could not be happier with the results :-)
I'm doing omad and over ate a week ago, never again! I woke up in the middle of the night with incredible pain. My stomach felt like it was going to burst, it was awful. I feel full all day but once I started eating it was hard to shut that off. Now I'm 30 days in , I feel full after the meal and dont continue to over eat.
Depends on your activity level. When I’m on vacation I can easily go 23 hours without eating & not even think about food. Same on the weekends. Only need to eat once a day. When I go to work I eat lunch at 12pm & dinner at 7pm, but I eat lighter meals.
Why this man has my back is the miracle! I eat to uncomfortable, yet, I want more. Because he said it's yesterdays food doing that he is a brilliant inspiration showing us good gets better!
I totally relate to the last statement. I can fast all day but it’s late at night I’m tempted to eat, popcorn and snacks while watching tv. I should open my window at 10pm to my normal bedtime of 3am
I’ve just started my weight loss journey on TH-cam and I have a lot of weight to lose ( embarrassingly so ) so I have been watching dr bergs videos a lot instead of over eating :) I’m trying to do IF but struggling - but I do feel so much better before I eat then when I finish over eating that is for sure.... I have to start getting rid of carbs out of my diet, but carbs are so hard to give up ( excuses excuses I know ) .... I am definitely not conscious eating like you are describing Dr. Berg and yes my most difficult time is at night - so my eating window needs to be at night and fast longer ..... ok, I’m going to put this information you have shown me tonight into practise .... I definitely relate to the inflammation .... when I detox I’m not in half as much pain as when I am over eating that is for sure .....
Hi Dr. Berg thank you so much for all of this information If you can give us some information about the bad chemical in Shampoo and cream and perfume with the name on the chemicals we can avoid thank you dr. Berg
I agree. People put such horrible things on their skin, one of our largest organs. If you put it on your skin it is like you are ingesting it because you absorb everything through your skin. I use organic olive oil on my skin.
The list of bad chemicals would take you at least a week or more to read!! Many of the ingredients aren't even required to be listed on the container!! I use coconut oil as a total body moisturizer and deodorant. This oil doesn't allow bacteria to grow, so no body odor! I never use perfume, but I know some people who use an essential oil mixed with a light oil to make perfume. Dr. Bronner's has a variety of concentrated pure soaps that can be used for MANY things. I'm a big fan of multipurpose products. I have one bottle that can be used to wash hair, bodies, dishes, floors, laundry, the dog and just about anything else that needs to be cleaned. Some people even spray it on their plants to deter bugs! He also has a citrus rinse for the hair after washing it. They are available online and in most health food stores. The price for these products may seem expensive, BUT they are highly concentrated (so will last a long time), have been around since 1858 and proven to be effective. A company doesn't stay around for 150 years without their products doing what they say they do!!
@@jovialjuju4921 While you are in the health food store, check out Dr. Bronner's soap products. Highly concentrated so less expensive in the long run and multipurpose. I love them.
Even if you overeat like I do sometimes, do it in the afternoon period, so that you can later on burn those calories in the gym, don't eat carbs after 7 pm
What I hate is that I am an over water. Everywhere I go there are food stalls or restaurants. Even going to the supermarket and smelling the food is torture. I have exercised restraint now for 4 weeks and lost 7kg. It's quite difficult though
I used to be a real " pack it away Patty" though never obese, just slim with most of my weight in my middle which I still have. I've finally tamed the wild beast i.e. over eating , but slip up once in awhile. It's amazing what some people put in their bodies, both in quantity and lack of quality. Ever watch those "all you can eat" videos where a guy chows down hundreds of hot dogs etc.? People should take this video with them esp. when they go out to eat. The restaurants here in this country don't serve food on plates...they serve food on platters! Everything is super-sized so they can charge more money.....why so many have to take home "doggie bags"! Thanks for sharing another great informative lesson!
This speaks to my issue. I love IF and keto but I have to drop IF when I want to reach maintenance calories. I top out at 1600 calories on fasting days. Less, usually. Easy to go as low as 800. I have to drop IF to hit 2000. Down from 240 to 170. Been doing this for more than a year.
When i overeat i usually get gas, sulfur burbs, eventually vomit and diarrhea, ending in vomiting clear mucus, dry heaves until im empty of anything. Good stuff here doctor. It really is a cycle
You are so great at explaining things clearly Dr. berg, can’t wait for your next live video...... you are awesome for people who really need motivation like me !!!
Many find it helpful to write down WHY they are doing what they are doing. What is the end goal? Read it every day for motivation or when you feel like cheating, which really is cheating yourself.
Vickie Turner I know that’s what I am doing - I have to start somewhere again and I’m trying to eat healthy calories - thanks for your advise though to me I really do appreciate it
@@jlsx3347 You are more than welcome! We are here to learn from each other and help where we can! After over 3 years of neurologists and several other doctors not knowing how to help me, I knew I had to find a guide. Thankfully, I found Dr. Berg! As I was on the verge of losing my independence, I was PLENTY motivated! Blessings to ya in your journey!
Vickie Turner sorry to hear that Vicki - what was the cause of you needing to see a neurologist - I had to see a rheumatologist but curious why you saw a neurologist and is the keto diet helping - trust me I am believer in diet - I’ve seen the results work for myself
@@jlsx3347 Good morning! I drove a big truck all over the U.S. for 20+ years. In 12-14 I drove 600 miles & don't remember any of it. No recall of most of the rest of my trip into TX & back to IN. All tests showed no signs of stroke, dementia or Alzheimer's. In 4-15, the Neurologist said I'd had a Transient Global Amnesia attack. He couldn't explain why I never fully came out of it, said I'd likely have more & I did. I had periods of just sitting in a chair, staring at nothing, not thinking. I lost a great deal of my memory to a point I couldn't spell, count, make sense of anything I heard or read, grandkids' names, etc. Nobody knew what was happening to me or why, yet they wanted to prescribe medicine, all with death as a side effect. I can't even take OTC meds due to severe reactions. When I refused the meds, they wouldn't 'help' me until I did. I knew that I'd die if I did. THEN I was led to Dr. Berg in the Fall of 2017! Since I couldn't cook anymore, I replaced my few spoons of peanut butter as my only food with his shake. I felt better & eventually began to teach myself to spell, read, count, etc. I heard him talk about his Keto/IF program about May 2018. I couldn't understand most of it, so just ate veggies & kept improving. I'm on my way, yet still large gaps in memory. I'm SO very grateful for the Doc's teachings and my instinct to follow as best I could! I think I'm close to where I'll be able to learn a new skill & earn a living again. My brain still doesn't function as it once did, but I'm a far cry from just staring into space for days on end & only eating a few spoons of peanut butter a day! I'm truly blessed!! I pray that you be truly blessed, as well!!
It's just disgusting to see some people always keeping eating and always discussing about foods. We should realize that we eat to live and not we live to eat.
hope that they find Dr Bergs videos one day, Try and have some compassion...our whole culture is out of wack with food, and some of it began as kids and a lot of it is just missing education and or wrong information. Even many drs have it wrong.
I've lost 9 kg doing keto, but I stopped because my muscles were getting more and more sore, my buttocks and legs muscles precisely. Now I am doing only intermittent fasting and trying to not eat alot of carbs. In 10 days, I lost another 1 kg. My only fear is that I might start craving carbs more with time...But I know that Keto is there to help me lose weight again...such a awful cycle tho...:(
Since stating Omad and losing 40 pounds and feeling great. I’ve noticed my coworker and his habits on snacking. I was an occasional one to snack also up until a year ago. I started slowly skipping breakfast then back in September started skipping lunch also now I do one meal a day and a 48 fast once a week then a 72 hour fast every other week. My coworker brings chips and cheese crackers and snacks on them most of the morning. I never really noticed how much he keeps snacking until I stopped the snacking.
You need to do something you love besides eating. Feeling happy, excitement can keep u away from food, cause it will also produce dopamine which is resposible for your good feeling while u r eating. Unfortunately only u can find out what makes u happy.
Create an account on MyFitnessPal and log all of your calories. It makes you pay more attention to the numbers which means more logical choices and fewer emotional decisions about food
stylac @stylac great tip , my son does this he swears by it , he’s studying physiology & bio mechanics at uni... so this app must be good although he drives me crazy weighing &;scanning all packaging when he’s home , it’s a commitment but clearly pays off as you say
When I First Started Keto my mind was Still in 'Constant Grazing Mode' and whilst in Thought or just Busy During the Day I would 'unconsciously' walk towards the No-No Snacks Cupboard and just Open the Doors... - Suddenly I would 'Wake Up' and to my Surprise I'm just Standing there, Staring at the Crisps, Biscuits, Chocolate etc. - was Very Weird at First. 2 Weeks in those Problems are Gone and I'm Eating Once a Day, NO Snacking, NO Problem - Keto is the BEST!
in america, i dont think most people finish their foods in the resturants because the portions are huge. most of the time people just eat some or half of everything. you know...... but i remember my friend ate the entire 3 courses!! I was shook!! I couldn't believe it!!
Right guidance..i luckily did conscious eating all through my life..credit to my father he told me always to eat little less than u want to eat immediately..so avoided overstuffing
Since I had to be more concious of my diet, now it is all about the right nutrition. I now don't have cravings for sugary snacks, junk food etc. IF here for long time, but now my diet is much better tuned for nutrition... excellent health benefits... no cravings or "off the wagon" moments. A friend brought me a cake she baked me last night.. had a tiny bite to try it,, was delicious.. but unlike before, I didn't want to eat it all... just too much sugar doesn't appeal to me anymore. Thanks Dr Berg!
Great video, as always! Dr Berg is a truly life saver. For me anyway. Had this question though, I thought eating at night (evening) before going to bed was not recommended?!
He still recommends not eating several hours before bed. I think he just sees that many people still have the most trouble with hunger and snacking in the evening, so if your trying to do intermittent fasting....if you have your small eating window in the evening, you will still get the benefit of the longer fast. I find this helpful because I still get hungry and have the greatest desire to snack in the evening....wether I eat lunch or not. So as he suggests for those of us with these tendencies, now I try and just not eat until between 5 and 7 pm...and eat a proper meal.
One thing that has REALLY helped stop my sugar cravings is bee pollen. It comes in powder form, capsule form, or little rolled granules. I *LOVE* the *powder*. Whenever I get cravings for candy, I eat a spoonful of the bee pollen powder and it disappears. I also noticed that it suppresses my appetite, and I end up being less hungry. Once I went an entire day without eating anything but a few spoonfuls of bee pollen and drinking water (with lemon and apple cider vinegar) Another side effect of the consumption of bee pollen is that it stopped my allergies/ sinuses issues. I used to have to take a daily dose of Claritin D or Benadryl, but not anymore. The only brand I ever use is 'Stakich'.
I think it's the way we are raised. Our parents force us to clean our plates no matter what, even if we're full or just not hungry. And we wonder why we grow up with an eating disorder and overeat, and feel we have to clean the plate no matter what.
Yes! I had to eat tripe, brains, kidney, and weird stuff. I hated this and my mother made me eat it, not allowed to go to bed.
Absolutely true!
@@lovetruth5733 brains and kidneys are actually really healthy, one of the most nutritious food according to Dr berg and many more.

"This may not ever have happened to you?" - ..Its happening as i type this Dr.

same, lol
Just want to share my weight loss journey.
Keto /OMAD
Oct 2019: 200lbs
Dec 10: 169lbs
Thank you Doc.
Wonderful job. I just can't stay on track. Congrats
Keep it up,
That’s drastic drop
That doesn't sound healthy at all
Slow and steady. Way to go. It's a lifestyle.
Low carb high fat and eating less frequently has been the only thing that has decreased my cravings. My friend at work is not even doing keto but lowered her carbs and started eating avocados and she said her sugar cravings stopped.
Keep going everyone.
i forgive you and i love you
Same here, I'm so glad I am able to do it, yeahh!!
Yeah. I just kicked up my fats and protein, got rid of white starches, and feel great. Stomach has shrunk making high volume (even veggies) very uncomfortable.

Even im doing keto for 2 months
Still feel that craving for starch and sugar
Its becoming less but my body cant forget the taste of carbs
I like that he’s serious and then he drops some comedy in 👍
Nice work Doc
I I think his humor is typical doctor humor
I overeat everyday even when im full and not enjoying food which I think is for emotional reasons! I do have insuline resistence, inflammation, and sleep apnea so this video is very accurate!
Me too! Why do we do this to ourselves??????:/
no self control
@@gjzjxhdjdjd4891 stress that's it nothing more
nothing less.
Staying in ketosis is what brought me control with overeating! I would rather other things worked but it took ketosis to tame my carb cravings. Now I only get hungry 1 or 2 times per day. Fasting plus ketosis makes losing fat and controlling appetite work. Not in and out of ketosis. That makes me hungry, irritable, and depressed.
But staying in ketosis - that is what it took. It is worth it.
For me, I feel I have to eat everything on my plate... even if that plate is the entire container of something.
I’m working every day to learn not to do this. One day at a time.
Started Keto and IF from 6 months ago. I’m down to my ideal body weight and feeling great. Thanks Dr. Berg!
I always appreciate Dr Bergs compassionate tone. Though he sees people eating in a way that perpetuates health problems, he explains the biology of why its a vicious cycle people need to understand rather than ridiculing them. He knows there are years of overstimulating foods, enticing sugars marketing of big companies as well as our own natural taste bud tendencies that have been hijacked. Thank you for patiently , thoroughly and persistently educating us so we can break free.
I’ve been doing really good on OMAD and I had an urge to go get a burger and fries tonight. I ended up going to the grocery store and picked up 1.5 lbs of wild caught sockeye. I’m so glad I didn’t give in and eat carbs.
Your stomach gets smaller when you fast, it’s easier to eat less.
Not in my case!!!
Maybe, but that 7 to 10 cups of salad sure puts a strain on my stomach
true. just get going & you will eat less
Some women eat very little and then eat like a roman soldier during that time of the month.
Not in my case either. Been IF for about 8 months...6 hr eating window I could eat the whole fridge if I didnt stop myself. I consume about 1k calories, then 2 hr later about 500 cal then another 1k later. I could eat more
The good doctor at it again
1:20 "they bring you another document" haha 😂
😂😂
I thought he was going to say "the bill"
Lol
That damn document!
@Jim Mork if the world was made up exclusively of Dr Bergs restaurants would have a big problem :D
I stopped going to restaurants years ago...........too much poison food.
Let alone unclean preparation of that food.
Yes. And 99 percent of restaurant cook in MARGARINE which will kill you dead !!
Yeah it's no the money but I prefer to spend less and healthy. Then spending time and money in the hospital.
R R And they take your money to poison you!!😮
I am born in a restaurant, what could be better is the cheap vegetable oil (not high-end restaurants ofc) , and generally veggies not washed properly (not all veggies ofc). So really not worse than most households, besides that all good mate.
I needed this video. I over eat right before my cycle(period) and it’s a difficult cycle to break. This was a wake up call
you need a bicycle
Do you also get hungry 24/7 because this is so odd 😂
SoHardToBeMe.... yessssssss... it’s crazy
I know the day is coming.....stressful! My body wants more food but can't let it happen with junk food so gave more avocados and tons of greens! Still bloated thought LOL ATE TOO MUCH
lovelyone0509 please explain me some more I am over eater and lately my period is very light it can be that please if u have more experience explain me some more
Its amazing how we're brought up to feed money to the food industry and all we get in return is fat, sick, tired, broke, and dead. I stopped supersizing my meals long ago.
That's just more money missing from my wallet and more girth added to my mid-section. No thanks. Great video Dr. Berg. Keep 'em coming.
I watch so many dr berg videos that I'm starting to recognize the stock photos he uses 😂
Nombuyiselo Mdluli same XD
Lol 🤣🤣
I needed this Video just now
I needed this video last night before I ate the croissant with jam I brought home from my lunch out!!!!
I agree. I feel happier, bouncier and more productive when I’m 50%-60% full and then tell myself I’ll snack in 3-4 hours. It really helps! Being bloated is a sore feeling, physically and mentally
I was actually going to order food before I watched this video. Thanks Dr Berg.
ORDER IT!!!!! You only live once
GOOD JOB PHALGUNI.👍👍👍
Food is for the weak!
@@LuvyStylesOfficial I want that t-shirt! 🏋️♀️
I’ve read it’s best to stop eating when you are still just a tiny bit hungry. You have to leave room for proper digestion, it makes sense to me. One big thing that’s helped me is making a conscious effort to chew my food until there is no chunks, completely liquified. This forced me to slow down and it’s helped my digestive system tremendously. I also try to time my meals by the circadian rhythm, we produce our most digestive juices when the sun is out. More digestive juices means less undigested food in my body…I will take all the help I can get.
Also, it takes a little time to realize you're not hungry anymore after eating. I agree with slowing down when eating a meal.
This vid helped a lot, thank you! I struggle with emotional eating and self-control. It really helps to know just how bad over eating is.
In America we are trained to overeat, or so it seems...........99 cent hamburgers, buffets everywhere and open salad bars, fill your tank, eat until you pop. Thanksgiving, Christmas, Easter and every other holiday people gather on to "celebrate" or "socialize" common denominator: WAY TO MUCH FOOD!!!!!!! In this country it is a lifestyle or even a way of life.....obesity is off the charts!!!!! America is FULL of excesses, but I think food is the main "drug" here.
wow you have 99cent burger in america?
I haven't seen any for several years, fidel. I was using this as a metaphor to illustrate my point about the way people use and think about food in this country, make sense??
@@two-strokesmoke7289 oh ok.. 99cents would be good haha.. i bet you dont see 2 strokes on the road as well anymore..hehehe
We have to fit in, with others. This is how it works in America
@@fidelcatsro6948 Trust me, fidel...you wouldn't want to eat it!! After eating REAL food for awhile, all of that fast food garbage will make you gag!
I have been eating like this a couple times a day, and indulging in anything and everything I want for about a year now, which is the first and only year I have been sober in 26 years. I know BETTER, but I was very thin and drinking 24/7 for over a decade so I had to do something to finally save my life. I wish I had you personally to help me transition back to a healthy relationship with myself and my diet and weight. I started at 114 lbs and now weigh 178 . I am 5'8. I am going to watch all your videos and thank you so much for reminding me I have to do better.
Well, did you do better?
I been doing it 23:1 and just felt like crap when I over ate. so I finally figured out to do correct keto with more fat and smaller meals
I don't do OMAD anymore because I can't take in even half the calories needed for the day with it. My portions nowadays are tiny.
Growing up, we were only allowed to order an appetizer size portion....not even an entree. No (actual) appetizer, no dessert. Probably a good habit learned there, the few times I have gone to a restaurant, I still adhere to that, even at my biggest.
How long did you do OMAD?
„Sleep apnea is insulin resistance by the way“ Doc is saying it like it‘s self-evident whereas it‘s probably the most mind-blowingly useful information I got today (next to the fact that when the gallbladder swells up from inflammation your right shoulder area hurts, which was my precise case a while back)
With intermittent fasting I can't eat much because my stomache has "shrunk". My portions are smaller and I am happy to quit eating sooner. Also, I never eat away from home as I can't afford it. 😉
Intermittent fasting is a great money saving technique actually. You dont need to eat as much because of the shrunk stomach and you're getting all the vitamins and nutrients into your cell because there is no insulin resistance. Although im not sure how to build muscle on IF
@@steelfox4437 Well said!!!!
Steel Fox. Exercise to get muscles 💪
@@steelfox4437 How long does it take to overcome insulin resistance through intermittent fasting?
Sometimes not being able to afford eating out, is a blessing in disguise.
Totally agree with the late eating window. I could never get into eating in the morning so it was natural for me to keep fasting through lunch and eat only in the evening. Just remember it doesn't work well if you stay up late on the weekend!
I was taught at a young age my stomach was no larger than two fists put together, and not to stretch it out of shape. Still, it's easy to overeat calorie wise if you don't feel full. Eating enough fat to satiate is so important and cutting out simple carbs that breakdown into sugar to keep that nasty hunger hormone away-ghrelin is essential for battling cravings. Thanks for your free videos.
What’s ghrelin? I only eat once a day & it’s usually 2 eggs & 1 avocado. But if I add 1 banana or a can of pineapples I feel stuffed. I also drink ACV & lemon juice with it.
Thank you Dr.Berg. Thanks to your advise I lost 11kgs. Now going on IF and preparing to go keto
Very interesting explanation... I’d be curious to know what happens when someone happens to overeat on healthy food - veggies, protein and fat. I know it not to be a good idea, but I’d love to understand that process.
I just had a super large meal combined with just veggies, protein and fat that comes from nuts (really just healthy food) but it’s way to much and I feel miserable now
You keep me accountable for things I don’t want to be accountable for. Thank you 🙏🏿🙏🏿
Thanks Dr. Berg,
Now i adjusted my once a week eating spree (Sundays).
I always learn great things from you!
I'm 33 6,1" and 335 lbs have high blood pressure i over eat all the time I consume energy drinks and smoke weed and cigarettes and drink whisky and struggle with my addictions. I really like watching your vids the information you share does help a little.
Thank you Dr.Berg. Great video.😊
I think u made this video for me gorsh..exactly what I went through yesterday ☹️
Same here what the hell 😂😂
The Great I bet u...I suffered yesterday 😂

Lmao I vomited and had to number 2 , stomach pains also 😂

That is absolutely correct, Dr Berg. In Deepak Chopra's "Just Listen! Your body is speaking to you" (can't quite remember if it was a book or an article, I jotted it down in 2010), one can read: (COPY/PASTE)
Let's say your body doesn't feel like your guide and friend. Why not? It's not because you gained weight, fallen out of shape or are depressed... It is Lack Of Awareness. Awareness has tremendous power. (Hence Conscious Eating.) It tunes into every cell. Awareness is invisible. It lets my body know what my mind is thinking. I become aware of my thoughts and it also sends feed-backs from the body..
The body sends signals. Every cell of the body follows those signals perfectly. If you are not paying attention to the signals, you are working against the flow of nature, which is the Flow Of Life. When Mind-Spirit-Body are in Harmony = Happiness is a natural state. You feel good.
Discomfort, pain, depression, anxiety are disharmony. = Feeling UNHAPPINESS is thus a form of feedback. Treat it like an indication, don't get mad at yourself for feeling "bad". It simply signals that disharmony has entered somewhere: either in the mind or body. (Since form follows thought, it is more likely the mind..) It simply means: AWARENESS HAS BECOME DISCONNECTED.
Only when you look at your situation this Holistic Way is when we can link Health to Wholeness and Holiness. For all three share the same root word and all three share the states of harmony and disharmony. They have a correlate in the brain and through the nervous system the brain makes every cell Aware that you have an issue...
With other words, your entire body-mind field is responding to every single pain or pleasure! The body-mind field IS Aware. You have to consciously pay attention to it, to what your body is telling you - by feeling it, thus Awareness will arise. This Awareness is silent & intuitive. Simply by paying attention, it infiltrates every corner of the field. .... but the opposite is also true. When you withdraw Awareness, disruptions occur. The Feedback loops no longer operate as they should = thus the flow of energy needed by every cell, begins to diminish. Your body becomes more like a neglected child = being ignored when it cries. You must re-connect with it again. (...but gosh humans are so used to that 'numb' state.. with the question being: WHY did you want to be sedated the first place?)
Basically, good digestion rules the world! That's my conclusion. It's also in the Book: Supreme Personality by Delmer Eugene Croft.
EXERCISE:
1. The next time you are looking for food or are tempted to overeat, focus on what your body is saying, ask: How do I feel at this moment? Either you are truly hungry or you feel something you don't want to feel (in yr mind) and by eating, you are suppressing that particular discomfort. So now, PAUSE before you reach. See how you'll feel (surely gonna get anxious) but tell your mind that you CAN have that food afterwards. In that Allowing, your wanting will loosen..... then just go ahead and proceed as you wish: follow that impulse to either eat or just turn around and start doing something if you can resist the craving. BOTH are good because now you are doing it AWARE. This realization will add another dimension to your action.
Keep doing this every single time when you feel like munching on something. (It is usually while watching TH-cam lately... ppl kind of, sort of just sit there 'doing nothing' and automatically want to grab something to eat. We can possibly call it, eating out of boredom.)
2. The second part of the exercise is when you actually start writing down that specific feeling, - just like DR BERG says. Next time you feel cravings, don't just PAUSE but grab your Notebook and be as specific as you can be by describing it, (yes it is very confronting, don't ask...) but keep answering the question: WHAT DO I FEEL AT THIS MOMENT? Jot down all the anger, anxiousness, scarcity, emptiness... then again, proceed as you wish: either follow the impulse to eat or just turn and start doing something..
3. The third step is, (when you get tempted again) to PAUSE again when you sat & wrote down your feelings, now, go inward and just BE with the uncomfortable feeling. Just sit there. Tell yourself; for one whole minute I'm gonna just sit here (instead of grabbing some food right away). That PAUSE is going to give you all kinds of mixed up emotions. You're gonna be even longing for a hug, because you'll realize it's not really food that you want, so ask the next question: WHAT AM I TRULY HUNGRY FOR? ... then again proceed as you wish, either follow the impulse to eat or just turn and start doing something. (You'll notice that each time you get further and further, mastering your skill of BEING AWARE = MINDFUL.)
4. The fourth step is to SERVE YOUR FEELINGS OF PAIN, DISCOMFORT, DEPRESSION THE RIGHT WAY. Instead of Self-Medicating through food, you can now follow the appropriate channels. This could simply mean: carrying out a task that you've been avoiding (in my case it was some paperwork and every time I got myself so far to actually DO it, I just made myself a meal... I really didn't see how I could complete that task so I just avoided it for as long as I could), or as serious as checking yourself into a clinic or going to see a therapist.
RESULT:
The idea is that if you keep doing the exercise, - either all 4 steps at once or just one by one each time - until one day, you'll be able to just STAY AWARE of your feelings but NOT FALL FOR THE EMOTION. You will not lose sight of your thoughts, you will stay connected. You become more like a witness who 'watches' every thought rise and fall. In many many cases, it is just one particular thing we try to keep away from (like in my case) and once that task is completed, the actual craving dissipates automatically. It really won't be "hard" to "not eat" after that, because you solved the issue of WHY you have been (over)eating the first place. In other cases, it can be someone you have issues with or miss, angry at, try to avoid, or don't want confrontation but it's gonna happen anyway, feeling of self-blame and you punish yourself with food or as simple as being scared of being hungry... etc.. Sometimes it takes some what more action, more realization or time to remove the obstacle that kept you captive. GOOD LUCK. - I send love to everyone, STELL' xx..

Relatable video, uh, from things I've seen others do.
Wow. I guess this comment is relatable to many, uh, who have "witnessed" things others have done. Yeah, that's the ticket.
LOL
Hahaha! 😆
I've been overeating and I feel sick. It's hard for me to find a balance. Sometimes I go three days without eating at all, other times I stuff myself like crazy with any pleasurable food I can find. I hate it.
Most of the time I eat keto and do intermittent fasting though. I have gastritis and it's been getting worse. Thank you for your videos and friendly advice.
These patient, scientific explanations have done much more for me than the videos of bodybuilders cheering over stock music. Not ripping on them at all, I'm just grateful I found this channel because I think this "teaching style" resonates with me more.
We can decide each day not to feel that way. Let us practice our self discipline for the greater good. 🦋
Eva Adamska
In short... the better I take care of myself, the better and longer I will be able to take care of others and need less help myself as I age. I want my choices to help me take care of others not need more people to take care of me in the future. What we do or don’t do effects other people. The less I need from others, the more I can be a giver to others. The greater good. Hope that helps.
I want to be a giver in life and less of a needer. It is more peaceful for me.
Excellent advice ☝🏻
thank you for this. im trying hard not to overeat these days and recover from the holiday/cold days. these tips are more than helpful
I've never eaten to the point where I felt sick, but when I started fasting I would load up on more food than I probably needed because I didn't realise that I could last a long time on just one plate. Sometimes I don't even eat to the point of complete fullness and I go 20 or so hours before needing another meal. It's pretty great.
Can you exercise while fasting without feeling sick
Thank you again Dr!! I enjoy watching your videos. They’re short, straight to the point, extremely easy to follow, and full of valuable information!! I’ve shared many with family and friends.
Dr. Berg is #1
I am struggling to wrap my mind around competing concepts:
1. Don't cut calories too much due to possible metabolic rate falling.
2. Eat in a small window.
3. Don't overeat when you eat. (Even though you are still trying to get macros and calories in.
4. Eat a ton of veggies per day which must be eaten within one or two meals a day.
5. Eat fats and proteins after you are stuffed to the rafters after eating a ton of veggies. But, make sure you dont forget #3.
6. Only eat when hungry. But you better hope you are hungry within the small window.
7.Stop when full. Even if you havent consumed enough calories.
Bloody hell. I am trying to stay motivated but damn. Please unravel some things for me.
Chris exactly. If you want my 2cents, I look at these videos, I take high level principles, but I think for myself, use my common sense, and listen very carefully to my body.
I now have more success than during December when I tried to copy and paste these videos
So just eat quality healthy food at any given time.. such that you won't be lured to crave for more things to ingest for ingestion sake
THANK YOU DR BERG.
Yes Dr Berg, it did happen to me😂
Thanks to one of the videos you were talking about overeating, I stopped overeating. Thank you so much for teaching us. You're amazing!!
Dang this is so me. I have binge eating disorder. Once I start eating I can’t stop and it gets painful to the point where I can barely breath or walk afterwards
I will never over eat again.
That's why I avoid restaurants. Soon as they bring me the document called "dessert menu" I get my pen and sign an agreement to a day or several of gut pain, bloating and terrible farts afterwards.
Christina Winter definitely don’t eat desserts but if you ever fail, take activated charcoal
If it’s my weekend cheat meal, I want the dessert menu FIRST so I can order less and save room for dessert. Lol
Oh gosh! I’m so relieved. I have been a bad late night snacker and since I’ve started intermittent fasting have narrowed my eating time to the evenings. I have felt some guilt about it , until I saw Dr B declare it’s an ok strategy whew
I am getting better¬ over eating&I do feel a lot Better😁
I'm fairly new to intermittent fasting and I love it, but I notice that I do tend to overeat simply to reach a decent number of calories within the time frame.
The sound of that marker cap opening !! So addictive
Love your content dr berg. I watch your videos every day and they have help me greatly.
You helped me more than any GP, doctor or NHS has helped me. Thank you!!!
My health is not quite their yet but I believe all you videos will get me their eventually
I'm not eating anything after my big lunch today. Yes too much food lol It was healthy food but too much and fell asleep. This video came just in time :)
This was an excellent message. I have an eating disorder. I am grateful that i acquired willingness and life skills to combat obesity. Thank you for your videos.
Hey Dr. Berg, would you consider doing a video on portion sizes or portion control? I think the reason most people over eat is because we as a nation have this false concept of how big our meals should be... I myself am guilty of this most of the time lol
thank you so much for these videos
Dr. Berg - you explained this so clearly! It's very helpful. Thank you! 😊🌹
This is exactly what I did starting out with your HK and IF. I jumped right into 16:8 with breakfast just being a nutritious coffee and lunch being as diverse and large as can be. I was always bloated, stuffed to the point where I couldn't move for an hour after eating and the small love handles remained stubborn. It took a few months for my brain to relax, be confident that I DO cover all the necessary nutrients daily, and I therefore produced a healthy amount of Leptin ( i think that's what it's called) in my brain that told me to stop eating when I was full - NOT stuffed. This allowed me to slowly drop another 6 lbs over time and the small love handles on the sides have disappeared. Took about 5 months to calm my brain down. Now I care less if I eat on any given day or not. Female, 48 yrs, 175cm tall, 57 kg. Could not be happier with the results :-)
Watching these videos and reading the comments help to keep on track so thanks for the info and tips
I'm doing omad and over ate a week ago, never again! I woke up in the middle of the night with incredible pain. My stomach felt like it was going to burst, it was awful. I feel full all day but once I started eating it was hard to shut that off. Now I'm 30 days in , I feel full after the meal and dont continue to over eat.
Ok so after you over eat remember to do intermittent fasting
16-18 hour fast is enough for me.
Same here, my friend! 💪🏻
Providing you're healthy or on the way to being healthier and that over consuming food is not causing you a slow death.
Depends on your activity level. When I’m on vacation I can easily go 23 hours without eating & not even think about food. Same on the weekends. Only need to eat once a day. When I go to work I eat lunch at 12pm & dinner at 7pm, but I eat lighter meals.
72 hours here! 💪🏿
this was something I need to hear, very timely
Why this man has my back is the miracle! I eat to uncomfortable, yet, I want more. Because he said it's yesterdays food doing that he is a brilliant inspiration showing us good gets better!
I totally relate to the last statement. I can fast all day but it’s late at night I’m tempted to eat, popcorn and snacks while watching tv. I should open my window at 10pm to my normal bedtime of 3am
I’ve just started my weight loss journey on TH-cam and I have a lot of weight to lose ( embarrassingly so ) so I have been watching dr bergs videos a lot instead of over eating :) I’m trying to do IF but struggling - but I do feel so much better before I eat then when I finish over eating that is for sure.... I have to start getting rid of carbs out of my diet, but carbs are so hard to give up ( excuses excuses I know ) .... I am definitely not conscious eating like you are describing Dr. Berg and yes my most difficult time is at night - so my eating window needs to be at night and fast longer ..... ok, I’m going to put this information you have shown me tonight into practise .... I definitely relate to the inflammation .... when I detox I’m not in half as much pain as when I am over eating that is for sure .....
Well, at least you are aware of it! Too many people aren't!
Vickie Turner thank you Vickie -
Hi Dr. Berg thank you so much for all of this information
If you can give us some information about the bad chemical in Shampoo and cream and perfume with the name on the chemicals we can avoid thank you dr. Berg
I agree. People put such horrible things on their skin, one of our largest organs. If you put it on your skin it is like you are ingesting it because you absorb everything through your skin. I use organic olive oil on my skin.
Try organic shampoo from health food store ✌️✌️✌️
The list of bad chemicals would take you at least a week or more to read!! Many of the ingredients aren't even required to be listed on the container!! I use coconut oil as a total body moisturizer and deodorant. This oil doesn't allow bacteria to grow, so no body odor! I never use perfume, but I know some people who use an essential oil mixed with a light oil to make perfume. Dr. Bronner's has a variety of concentrated pure soaps that can be used for MANY things. I'm a big fan of multipurpose products. I have one bottle that can be used to wash hair, bodies, dishes, floors, laundry, the dog and just about anything else that needs to be cleaned. Some people even spray it on their plants to deter bugs! He also has a citrus rinse for the hair after washing it. They are available online and in most health food stores. The price for these products may seem expensive, BUT they are highly concentrated (so will last a long time), have been around since 1858 and proven to be effective. A company doesn't stay around for 150 years without their products doing what they say they do!!
@@jovialjuju4921 While you are in the health food store, check out Dr. Bronner's soap products. Highly concentrated so less expensive in the long run and multipurpose. I love them.
research water-only showering or hair washing or "no poo" hair washing.
Dr Berg: its probably never happened to you..."
Me: everyday😪
Even if you overeat like I do sometimes, do it in the afternoon period, so that you can later on burn those calories in the gym, don't eat carbs after 7 pm
What I hate is that I am an over water. Everywhere I go there are food stalls or restaurants. Even going to the supermarket and smelling the food is torture. I have exercised restraint now for 4 weeks and lost 7kg. It's quite difficult though
I used to be a real " pack it away Patty" though never obese, just slim with most of my weight in my middle which I still have. I've finally tamed the wild beast i.e. over eating , but slip up once in awhile. It's amazing what some people put in their bodies, both in quantity and lack of quality. Ever watch those "all you can eat" videos where a guy chows down hundreds of hot dogs etc.? People should take this video with them esp. when they go out to eat. The restaurants here in this country don't serve food on plates...they serve food on platters! Everything is super-sized so they can charge more money.....why so many have to take home "doggie bags"! Thanks for sharing another great informative lesson!
This speaks to my issue. I love IF and keto but I have to drop IF when I want to reach maintenance calories. I top out at 1600 calories on fasting days. Less, usually. Easy to go as low as 800. I have to drop IF to hit 2000. Down from 240 to 170. Been doing this for more than a year.
When i overeat i usually get gas, sulfur burbs, eventually vomit and diarrhea, ending in vomiting clear mucus, dry heaves until im empty of anything. Good stuff here doctor. It really is a cycle
You are so great at explaining things clearly Dr. berg, can’t wait for your next live video...... you are awesome for people who really need motivation like me !!!
Many find it helpful to write down WHY they are doing what they are doing. What is the end goal? Read it every day for motivation or when you feel like cheating, which really is cheating yourself.
Vickie Turner I know that’s what I am doing - I have to start somewhere again and I’m trying to eat healthy calories - thanks for your advise though to me I really do appreciate it
@@jlsx3347 You are more than welcome! We are here to learn from each other and help where we can! After over 3 years of neurologists and several other doctors not knowing how to help me, I knew I had to find a guide. Thankfully, I found Dr. Berg! As I was on the verge of losing my independence, I was PLENTY motivated! Blessings to ya in your journey!
Vickie Turner sorry to hear that Vicki - what was the cause of you needing to see a neurologist - I had to see a rheumatologist but curious why you saw a neurologist and is the keto diet helping - trust me I am believer in diet - I’ve seen the results work for myself
@@jlsx3347 Good morning! I drove a big truck all over the U.S. for 20+ years. In 12-14 I drove 600 miles & don't remember any of it. No recall of most of the rest of my trip into TX & back to IN. All tests showed no signs of stroke, dementia or Alzheimer's. In 4-15, the Neurologist said I'd had a Transient Global Amnesia attack. He couldn't explain why I never fully came out of it, said I'd likely have more & I did.
I had periods of just sitting in a chair, staring at nothing, not thinking. I lost a great deal of my memory to a point I couldn't spell, count, make sense of anything I heard or read, grandkids' names, etc. Nobody knew what was happening to me or why, yet they wanted to prescribe medicine, all with death as a side effect. I can't even take OTC meds due to severe reactions. When I refused the meds, they wouldn't 'help' me until I did. I knew that I'd die if I did.
THEN I was led to Dr. Berg in the Fall of 2017! Since I couldn't cook anymore, I replaced my few spoons of peanut butter as my only food with his shake. I felt better & eventually began to teach myself to spell, read, count, etc. I heard him talk about his Keto/IF program about May 2018. I couldn't understand most of it, so just ate veggies & kept improving.
I'm on my way, yet still large gaps in memory. I'm SO very grateful for the Doc's teachings and my instinct to follow as best I could! I think I'm close to where I'll be able to learn a new skill & earn a living again. My brain still doesn't function as it once did, but I'm a far cry from just staring into space for days on end & only eating a few spoons of peanut butter a day! I'm truly blessed!! I pray that you be truly blessed, as well!!
You're a good man dr berg
Very useful video Dr Berg !
Thanks a lot will follow to eat consciously and prolong intermittent fasting as much as possible .
He's a good fellow Dr Berg and has a good presentation and easy to understand.
Each vid is a lock an key that I didn't know existed. Thanks Dr B!!
It's just disgusting to see some people always keeping eating and always discussing about foods. We should realize that we eat to live and not we live to eat.
hope that they find Dr Bergs videos one day, Try and have some compassion...our whole culture is out of wack with food, and some of it began as kids and a lot of it is just missing education and or wrong information. Even many drs have it wrong.
Nothing wrong with living to eat. Ya just don’t want to eat yourself to death. ;)
dae soto great saying
Yup
Please type Mukbang eating in TH-cam search...
I've lost 9 kg doing keto, but I stopped because my muscles were getting more and more sore, my buttocks and legs muscles precisely.
Now I am doing only intermittent fasting and trying to not eat alot of carbs. In 10 days, I lost another 1 kg.
My only fear is that I might start craving carbs more with time...But I know that Keto is there to help me lose weight again...such a awful cycle tho...:(
Since stating Omad and losing 40 pounds and feeling great. I’ve noticed my coworker and his habits on snacking. I was an occasional one to snack also up until a year ago. I started slowly skipping breakfast then back in September started skipping lunch also now I do one meal a day and a 48 fast once a week then a 72 hour fast every other week. My coworker brings chips and cheese crackers and snacks on them most of the morning. I never really noticed how much he keeps snacking until I stopped the snacking.
Well put. Well explained. Practical suggestions. Thank you again
Excellent advice. Thank you for the encouragement to eat more sensibly.
Sir how to get rid from emotional attachment with food ??
fasting
You need to do something you love besides eating. Feeling happy, excitement can keep u away from food, cause it will also produce dopamine which is resposible for your good feeling while u r eating. Unfortunately only u can find out what makes u happy.
Create an account on MyFitnessPal and log all of your calories. It makes you pay more attention to the numbers which means more logical choices and fewer emotional decisions about food
thanks for such a healthy info
stylac @stylac great tip , my son does this he swears by it , he’s studying physiology & bio mechanics at uni... so this app must be good although he drives me crazy weighing &;scanning all packaging when he’s home , it’s a commitment but clearly pays off as you say
My main reason to overeat on keto is that the food is just too delicious :)
You are saving lives, Doc.
When I First Started Keto my mind was Still in 'Constant Grazing Mode' and whilst in Thought or just Busy During the Day I would 'unconsciously' walk towards the No-No Snacks Cupboard and just Open the Doors... - Suddenly I would 'Wake Up' and to my Surprise I'm just Standing there, Staring at the Crisps, Biscuits, Chocolate etc. - was Very Weird at First.
2 Weeks in those Problems are Gone and I'm Eating Once a Day, NO Snacking, NO Problem - Keto is the BEST!
I don't see how it helps eating a huge dinner at night (2000-3000 cals) for getting a good, restful sleep. It definitely doesn't work for me.
Sound like this Doctor is going to live for ever....!!!
in america, i dont think most people finish their foods in the resturants because the portions are huge. most of the time people just eat some or half of everything. you know...... but i remember my friend ate the entire 3 courses!! I was shook!! I couldn't believe it!!
Right guidance..i luckily did conscious eating all through my life..credit to my father he told me always to eat little less than u want to eat immediately..so avoided overstuffing
Since I had to be more concious of my diet, now it is all about the right nutrition. I now don't have cravings for sugary snacks, junk food etc. IF here for long time, but now my diet is much better tuned for nutrition... excellent health benefits... no cravings or "off the wagon" moments. A friend brought me a cake she baked me last night.. had a tiny bite to try it,, was delicious.. but unlike before, I didn't want to eat it all... just too much sugar doesn't appeal to me anymore. Thanks Dr Berg!
Dr. You are standing before the board obstructing the view , can you adjust a bit so that we can read and watch your excellent videos suitably..
Great video, as always! Dr Berg is a truly life saver. For me anyway. Had this question though, I thought eating at night (evening) before going to bed was not recommended?!
He still recommends not eating several hours before bed. I think he just sees that many people still have the most trouble with hunger and snacking in the evening, so if your trying to do intermittent fasting....if you have your small eating window in the evening, you will still get the benefit of the longer fast. I find this helpful because I still get hungry and have the greatest desire to snack in the evening....wether I eat lunch or not. So as he suggests for those of us with these tendencies, now I try and just not eat until between 5 and 7 pm...and eat a proper meal.
One thing that has REALLY helped stop my sugar cravings is bee pollen. It comes in powder form, capsule form, or little rolled granules. I *LOVE* the *powder*. Whenever I get cravings for candy, I eat a spoonful of the bee pollen powder and it disappears. I also noticed that it suppresses my appetite, and I end up being less hungry. Once I went an entire day without eating anything but a few spoonfuls of bee pollen and drinking water (with lemon and apple cider vinegar) Another side effect of the consumption of bee pollen is that it stopped my allergies/ sinuses issues. I used to have to take a daily dose of Claritin D or Benadryl, but not anymore. The only brand I ever use is 'Stakich'.
