Being an early Bean for once - wow. Let's hear what way YOU propose, with all the evidence you present all the time. Many many many thanks for your efforts!
I used to think that as well and also had trouble….. until I quit eating sugar, quit carbs and processed foods. I easily lost 35 lbs. But I also walked more and started exercising 3-4 times per week.
Just avoiding sugar/carbs and processed foods ALONE is a productive start, even without exercise. No deprivation diet. But people are addicted to their pasta/rice/bread and snacks. They need to growacet.
If you do a ketogenic diet with intermittent fasting and you do it faithfully you will have weight fall off. I lost 64 pounds in 8 months and have kept it off now for an additional 9 months. I can eat a little sugar/ carbs once a week now and still maintain my weight. No sugar or carbs is better though.
@@Jennifer-gr7hnall Type 2 is reversible. Type 1 is not. My husband's cousin reversed his Type 2 after almost dying from a heart attack. He has a pacemaker. Heart damage and neuropathy can't be reversed, but he is off all insulin and metformin from diet and exercise. He eats almost no carbs. And bicycles multiple times a week. He has kept up this lifestyle for 8 years. He is in his mid 70s.
Exactly. Wt loss is all about diet. Entirely. Eliminate ALL processed “foods”. Natural fat, such as avocado, is ok. I’ve got a lg gallstone, from my high fat diet. I’ve been on medical medium, which is just real foods,(fruits, veggies, some meat if you like). He recommends eating foods that are healing for your condition, eliminating those that aggravate. I’ve lost over 20 pounds in 5 weeks, without trying. No exercise due to broken toe.
Can you do a video on management of histamine/mast cells? I have been tested positive for hereditary alpha tryptasemia and trying to research best ways to control these.
Skipping dinner was too hard, but skipping breakfast is easy. I just drink coffee in the morning and it curbs my appetite. I get hungry at noon but that's normal. It's a good weight loss strategy even without autophagy. Berberine also seems to help.
The other two important methods are intermittent fasting and a reduced inflammatory state for the pancreas to allow beta cell redifferentiation. I will discuss in the next videos.
@@laveraparato258 I’ve been very low carb for a year. Cut down significantly on alcohol. I’m 5 7”. Went from 168 lbs to 151. BP issues improved. HbA1C between 5.6 and 5.9 this year. Can’t seem to crack it.
@@meekooshI would look into decreasing saturated fat and doing a plantbased diet, some bodies, like mine don’t respond to keto/low carb but respond to low saturated fat and plantbased
Worse than obesity is sarcopenia for diabetes. If you have insufficient lean mass , you have insufficient glucose sink. Pick up some weights and increase your protein intake.
That’s the KEY! Don’t MANAGE Type 2 Diabetes - REVERSE IT (or Prevent it) by following a Whole Foods Ketogenic Diet with Intermittent Fasting and occasional Prolonged Fasting. Note that the CARNIVORE DIET is the Lowest Carb, most Nutrient Dense of the Ketogenic Diets if you are interested in achieving the fastest results. 👍
not that simple - many risk factors such as childhood trauma, stress, heavy metals, molds, antibiotics, seed oils (one can eat "carnivore" and have plenty of seed oils)
@Jennifer-gr7hn - I agree there can be other factors to good health and you mentioned several. It was not my intent to comment on these other factors. If we’re focusing on the DIET factor, the one that contributes MOST to Type 2 Diabetes, then a Ketogenic Diet with Intermittent Fasting and occasional Prolonged Fasting is the way to go. You cannot Reverse or Prevent Type 2 Diabetes UNLESS you deal with Diet & Fasting. Anyone who believes they are following a Ketogenic or Carnivore Diet and continues to use Industrial Seed Oils has not done any research on the subject. Butter, Beef Fat, and Bacon Grease are the Cooking Oils of Choice for the Carnivore Diet.
My issue is: Got breast cancer, started eating healthy, exercised, and yet A1C continued to climb…. Because I was put on anastrazole which steals estrogen and estrogen is part of what assists in glucose moderation. 33 percent of women put on anastrazole become diabetic. I had to get my doc to give me a CGM to monitor my glucose and learn how foods are now affecting me. If I eat carbs my glucose spikes over 140 … even up to 230, depending on what I eat. I have had to go very low with all my carbs. I feel good but would sometimes like to eat a few berries or lentils, or beans, or even a sweet potato, but if I do, my glucose spikes very high. Drbeen, I am curious if I am taking anastrozole (the lack of estrogen) is there a way for me to avoid becoming diabetic but also have some carbs in my diet? It has been very restrictive to eat the way I do. I don’t know if I can go the 5-10 years that I have to be on this medication. I don’t want to be diabetic. I have lost 35 lbs and don’t have much fat left to lose but the carbs still spike my glucose. I don’t see improvement in insulin resistance and I’m not even sure if it is IR or just the lack of estrogen that is causing it. Any suggestions? I do intermittent fasting, lost 35 lbs, am very skinny (size 2-4 pants), and can’t lose much more fat (hardly any more left).
I had type 2 diabetes (as a result of eating like a fool). AIC of 10.2! Lost about 30 pounds by consuming less than 100 grams carbs per day. Doctor prescribed 2,000 mg metformin per day. I graphed my progress. Morning glucose levels started falling as well as A1C values. Then after a several months I dropped metformin in half. The values continue to fall with my weight. Then I quit the metformin. Values continued to fall... now AIC at about 5.8...so this plan works. However, I believe it is hard to lose weight without cutting carbs.
Age 61, post covid type2 diagnosis. Current bmi according to my scale is 24.5. Starting A1C was 12.2. Last test was 5.7. Daily glucose between 80 and 150. Started out on almost zero carbs. Slowly working back up to ~100 carbs / day. Try to consume all daily calories by 7pm. Current meds include metformin 500mg 4x, time release insulin 15 units at 10pm. Its been a struggle but feeling much better.
@DrBeenMedicalLectures i have not had a CRP test. I have fasted for up to a day at a time but not for a couple of years. Maintaining glucose levels during a fast is challenging.
My husband is no longer on insulin or any diabetic meds by supplementing benfotiamine (the fat soluble form of B1) and getting the cofactors of B1. He only modestly cut carbs.(Cut back to 1 sometimes 2 (20oz) sodas a day.) God bless
Thank you for this video! I calculated that 15 kg is equivalent to ~33 pounds. This is information I'll be able to use for patients, and am wondering if HIIT exercise has been used with calorie restriction and intermittent fasting for faster results or to deal with plateaus in the weight loss journey.
Sir i check my fasting in may1 2024 my fasting blood suger 548 and my hba1c 14.9 after i seach about on youtube and watch video dr jhson fung change my diet and start walk after 17 may my fasting under 100 and after meal 130 and after 4 month my wegith loss 12 kg and my hba1c 5.4 now and not stop loss my wegith now my wegith 56kg i have no medicine now my fasting 80to100 and after meal 100to120 can i reverse my dm. Thanks
Some people still have adverse reactions to carbs/sugar even when they have lost weight….. when they are skinny. If they are not a type 1 diabetic, but have glucose issues, what should be tested?
Mechanism of Hypertension is well explained. Reduction of weight is key to reversal of T2D. But how to reduce weight when someone says that he gains weight even on drinking water and doing exercise a lot?
to lose 33 lbs will take ages for some diabetics. About 10 years ago I started at a weight of 212 lbs @ 5' 2" Now I'm 176 lbs, my diabetes is still not fully under control due to my bad eating habits
In such cases, two interesting methods can be used. a) intermittent fasting. Possibly eliminating snacks. Compressing the duration of window between meals to elongate the fasting time, and b) reducing the inflammatory foods to give pancreas a break and help pancreatic cells redifferentiate to functioning cells.
I have metabolic syndrome, A1c 6... I'm not overweight, 131lb. Lost 8-9 lbs this year. I've been doing intermittent fasting, very low carb, and almost no sugar except from berries. I eat sourdough einkorn bread for carbs, that's it. Hike 3-5 times a week for 1 hour, and heavy weights 3x a week. No doctors have been able to help me get metabolic syndrome under control. Post menopause, no estrogen. Going to try hormone therapy with Biest 80/20, progesterone and testosterone. Does anyone else have this issue?
My cancer has caused me to have A1C 6.1…. (Actually anastrazole - steals my estrogen, which is the pill I have to take). I weigh 130 now and have lost 35 lbs. I feel very skinny…. Size 2-4 pants. I do IF,no sugar except berries, very low carb, meats and fats. I walk 5-10 miles per day, am in my 60s, work out with weights/resistance training and yoga 3-5 times per week. My A1C came down to 5.6 but I still have issues with carbs…… If I eat carbs, my glucose will spike higher than 140 up to 230 depending on what I ate. Post menopause, zero estrogen, and can’t do hormone therapy due to my cancer. I cannot seem to reverse my reaction to carbs. 😢 Yes, I know carbs cause spikes but not as high for some people compared to what it does to me. My doctors have not been able to help me either.
@sheila7814 I'm so sorry Sheila. It can be very consuming to try so hard and not get results. I pray that God will bring the answers and healing we both need. 🙏
While fixing other life issues, dont eat the problem - carbs that induce insulin. Period. There are so many great, easy, yummy low and zero carb, higher butter and animal fat keto or carnivore recipes. Carbs are unnecessary in every way! Powdered egg whites make all kinds of very low carb breads yummy. Allulose makes even dessert yummy. Simple red meat is best! Butter mayo! So many great options! And NO, the grocery bill does not go up. Actually down. Because it is all so nutrient rich (no high calorie malnutrition here), so you eat less, have virtually no cravings, more energy, and dont spend money on death inducing fast food. Family and holiday friendly, too!
I never get tired of these videos.
Thank you!

Dr been has given invaluable advice for years.❤
Thank you for your recognition!
I started the Carnivore diet last month. I’ve lost twenty pounds and haven’t felt this good in twenty years.

Thank you!
Thank you for this video, DrBeen!
My pleasure!
What about RFK jr Been? This is good right?
If it was easy to lose 15 kg, most of those who are obese, would do so. Losing weight is extremely difficult for many. Even losing 5 kg is a big deal
I used to think that as well and also had trouble….. until I quit eating sugar, quit carbs and processed foods. I easily lost 35 lbs. But I also walked more and started exercising 3-4 times per week.

@ same here but only needed 35lbs. Been easy to maintain.
Excellent information especially for the standard American diets followed. Thank you 🎉

And prevention is better than cure. So start today.
cures are not possible for many situations

That is exactly what dr Chetty from South Africa recommends.
What about those that have normal BMI but are still prediabetic? Indicates insulin resistance due to other factors?
BMI alone is misleading. What are you eating? Cut sugar and grains. Increase protein.
The other two important methods are intermittent fasting and a reduced inflammatory state for the pancreas to allow beta cell redifferentiation. I will discuss in the next videos.
