Let’s talk about the best ways to increase growth hormone, especially as you age.
In adults, growth hormone is crucial for muscle building and fat burning. It’s also important for building tendons, ligaments, collagen, joints, and bones. However, growth hormone dramatically decreases with age.
Side effects of a deficiency in growth hormone can include:
• Difficulty building muscle
• Cognitive issues
• Lowered mood
• Higher levels of LDL
• Hair loss
• Insomnia
Here are the top things that can block growth hormone:
• Insomnia
• Sleep apnea
• High blood sugar
• High insulin
• Chronic stress
• Liver problems
The pituitary gland produces growth hormone. Instead of replacing the hormone with a synthetic version, why don’t we support the gland that makes growth hormone?
How to increase growth hormone naturally:
1. Try Pituitrophin PMG from Standard Process
2. Do intense exercise
3. Take milk thistle (if you have a liver problem)
4. Get on the Healthy Keto® diet
5. Do cold immersion therapy
6. Do heat therapy
7. Do intermittent fasting
Some people find their muscles look flat or dehydrated after getting on keto. In this situation, it’s important to drink plenty of water with electrolytes, especially potassium and sodium. This will help keep the muscles hydrated. You could also try increasing your carbs to 50 grams per day by consuming foods like berries but still avoiding refined carbs and sugar.

Thanks for watching! I hope this helps you better understand how to increase growth hormone and build muscle on keto. I’ll see you in the next video.
I am 61 years old; 62 in one week. I have never told you how much you have helped me with my health and weight loss. I was 282 when I started watching your health advice. The education about what I was eating was the reason I was overweight. The keto information, eating more salads, getting wheat gluten out of my life, no more Cornola oil foods. my sugar intake is very low now. I lost; without running or high levels of exercise 29 pounds. 253 is the new me and still cutting up. I have abs again and lost all the inflammation in my joints. I can ride my bike again. I eat 2 times a day fasting between. Thank you Thank you. I have shared it with everyone.
I can relate, i found Dr Bergs videos about a year ago, searching for natural remedies for thyroid disease. At this point, i stopped buying pasta, rice, potatoes. I bought 3 hens that give me 3 eggs a day, which enables me to eat between 3 and 6 eggs a day (depending on if i am home). Eating tons of salad + eggs, even if i want to eat less healthy food, after eating eggs and salad, i am so full! I also eat some dark chocolat and bananas, and i lose a pound a week without even trying... (which i gain back whenever i visit my mom lol..)
sorry if this is a stupid question but i just want to make sure, when you say you eat 2 times a day and fast in between, you eat breakfast, skip lunch and eat dinner?
@@paulcuddle664 eat in a four hour window. breakfast and dinner within four hours of each other. then twenty hour fast.
@@paulcuddle664 It just means I don't snack in between my two meals. my first meal is at 11:30am then I don't eat again until dinner at 5:45pm. I keep away from sugar.
@@seanmartin681 me too Sean Boiled eggs
It took me until 40 years of age to understand that recovery is as important as excersise. It's 1:1
SAME!!!
@@piperuk5366 yes, and as important as work too!

Thank you
Sprinting or running like I used to do and all kinds of races! I all it helped with is losing weight!
I'm 51, female, and got into IF and prolonged fasting 10 months ago. I lost fat and built muscle the most by my 3-day+ fasts. I've done 3 3-day, 1 4-day, and 2 5.5-day fasts in the last 10 months. I've only been this built back when I was at the gym lifting weights 3 times a week in my early 30s. Now I'm just living my rural farm life and have the same result because of the IF and prolonged fasting. And I'm omnivorous, clean keto with no supplementation for HGH.
Is one three day fast every month good enough? What is your opinion please?
@@brianheflin15 how long or how many days did that feeling stay?
@@brianheflin15 *_EXCELLENT!!! Congrats!!!_*
@@strizz1992 It depends on your goals. I originally started fasting (IF and prolonged) to heal an auto-immune disorder (severe asthmatic response to histamine in food and produced by my body that I HAD to heal because I literally couldn't EAT at all without causing an asthma attack) which I did. I fasted a LOT to make that happen (not to mention I was asymptomatic while I wasn't eating so that made it easier).
In the _process_ I noticed my muscles getting really defined and my strength increasing! So, I don't know what to tell you regarding how much to do to get that result, but my advice is to start upping your fasting lengths and see what happens over the next 6 months.
@@strizz1992 I can't speak for Brian, but my longest fast, 134 hours, was 3 weeks ago and I'm still experiencing some healing of an eye issue that started getting better the day after my fast. I don't feel euphoric, LOL, but the results can last for months if you're talking about stem cell production.
Powerful message Dr. Berg.
I'm attempting a lot of these ideas already and they are slowly helping. Heck I am able to sustain longer nights and awake earlier because of your tips. Now to work on getting my growth hormone up for other results.
WOW over 11 million followers,
Your the Man DR.👍
Always enjoy your podcasts. Thanks you for all of your great info😊
Sooo incredibly resource dense n a summary of many past things. Knowledge, understandin sure helps with havin more a sense of control in our rollercoaster world. With many serious heart challenges n such conflictin advice, as a 70 yr ole recently i just concluded, do what u can but prioritize excersize within personal limits, thanks again Eric, you n others certainly r making a huge difference imo
love the new animation and increased production value.
I'm grateful for this channel. Keep it Up. I went to Pharmacy School and I'm really honest here saying, none of this was mentioned. But tbf the course deals with drugs I.e how to repair or get to some sort of normalcy after an illness. However after much contemplation I think we should also be taught how to stay ahead of the curve and not necessarily react after much damage has been done. How to cultivate healthy practices should also be insisted despite how much the modern world seems to lack a standard. I.E anything and anyone is being accepted despite reasons that whatever they are doing isn't okay/alright. Anyways much love from Kenya🇰🇪🇰🇪. I also love the positive community in here. So big up yourselves too✌️🏿✌️🏿
My Keto and fasting journey has been fantastic. Recently though I’ve got a a strong urge to avoid what little vegetables and berries I was eating. I crave meat, butter, eggs, cheese and kefir. I feel better, fitter and stronger than ever.
I HAVE LEARNED LOTS OF THING FROM YOU. THANKS DOCTOR 🙏
Glad to hear that! Most welcome!
Since I became familiar with Dr. Berg I have started being much more conscious of my carb intake, especially sugar. My PCP had me tested and he told me that I have a genetic predisposition to diabetes. I also found out that I was potassium and magnesium deficient. Learning from these videos has had an enormous effect on my personal preventative care routines.
Are you taking potassium and magnesium now if you do can you please share the brand and dosage example like in MG
@@NansGlobalKitchen I take 400mg magnesium. I take a prescription dose of potassium, so I forget what the regular dosage would be but I wouldn't take as much as I do without asking your doctor. As far as brands go, Himalaya is probably my favorite supplement brand.
Cheers so much again Dr Berg I love taking your simple advice because it just works ☺❤
Beautiful!! Thank you so much Dr, you have all my respect and honor to you. You are the best ❤️
Thank you for being so supportive!
Well done Dr. Berg! he presented such comprehensive and useful information very simply and clearly! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
You always break down everything doc,thanks
Most welcome!
Dr Berg...you are Kick Ass! Thank you for all your great and wide impact MEDICAL INTELLIGENCE!
Hey, thanks for your comment!
Only the best and God bless! No need to reply.
👍🙏💕Thank you so much Doctor Berg.This topic is so awesome for my mum, very fantastic and informative ❤
Awesome video as usual doc, love the info.
Truly thank you for sharing all of your knowledge with us
Wow! Thank you so much for that.
seems like one of the best health related video ive seen
Thanks, glad you liked it!
Dear Dr. Berg: You are so generous with your knowledge. I am very thankful for your altruistic attitude! God Bless you!
Thanx Doc,really helpful video. Blessings.
True champ Doc . Thanks for that!
Thank you Eric
Helpful video
What blocks HGH:
#1. Insomnia.
#2. Hyperglycemia.
#3. Pituitary Gland problems.
#4. Chronic Stress.
Thank you Dr. Berg!!
wow after hearing this my insomnia and chronic stress magically disappeared
nature bless you with countless offsprings
Everything I developed from security work.
This is an amazing video. Should be the starter for being educated in keto and intermittent fasting for why and how it works. As in keto is not for losing weight, it is for living and eating to keep the machine properly functioning. Been taking milk thistle for years, along with D3, zinc, and most all the other minerals. Will have to look into that pituitary gland support supplement, sounds interesting.
Very interesting...great production.
I like the cursive and camera zooms were more frequently. Nice job family.
Thank you Doc. One of your best videos!!!
You're very welcome! Glad you liked it!
I really need this video it helps me a lot ☺️thank you so much
You're most welcome!
Thank you for the informative session. I was impressed with the number of connections I made with this video as I have had sleep apnea for a long time. Plants in the room? That was a good one too.
Glad to help!
Great stuff doc 🙏🥰 thank you 🩷
You're most welcome!
Your videos helping everybody
First of all, Thanks for all the great info!! Your tips have helped so much. My BP is down 50/30, I've lost loads of weight, and the heart related effects of a certain disease and vaccine were eliminated using the correct vitamins and amino acid. I have all the symptoms of what you list here, I guess it's the next thing I'll work on.
I appreciate you, Dear Dr. Berg.
Thank you so much. Dr. Eric Berg DC. Sir. You are a genius! 😊
Thank you Doc for all your work and videos. Keep it up. --- The Major. 😁
Thank you doc for another informative video have a good day
No problem. Thanks for watching. Have a nice day!
great and helpful information. you doing great work Dr. Berg! 👏
Thank you, I'm glad you liked it!
Time to open some windows and start planting some plants! Thank you Dr. Berg!
What a useful and informative video!
Thank you! 👌🏻
Glad to be an inspiration!
I have found that taking a hot shower right before bed and keeping the bedroom cold, puts me to sleep fast and I don't wake up until I've had 8-9 hours of sleep. Switching from a shower in the morning to a shower at night did wonders for my sleep. I've always slept with the A/C on 68 in the summer and heat shut off in the bedroom in the winter. I also use a white noise machine. My energy went through the roof. I'm 67, been diabetic for 12 years and on keto that long as well.
All great ideas. White noise machines are very necessary, IMO, especially, in the heart of large urban areas!
White noise machine? Sounds interesting will look into that. Thank you for sharing
@whoknows8223 if you're ever bothered by internal or external noises, white noise machines can partially or fully cover them to no noticeable! Game changer in some situations!
@@ianstuart5660 Exactly, my neighbor's Harley starting up at 5am was drowned out by my white noise machine.
@@whoknows8223i use an air purifier for my white noise. Kills two birds with one stone, so to speak.
Thank you so much Dr.Berg ! You help me to build my better healthier myself! Thanks a lot very very good job 👏🏻 ❤
Very informative, brilliant video ☝🏼👍🏼

As a 270lb bodybuilder. I can't do keto. I tried it many times. It isnt sustainable long term for guys like me. It severely destroys performance in the gym. 'Flat' muscles lead to easy injury when working out. I know from personal experience. If you aren't a bodybuilder sure keto is a good lifestyle diet. But bodybuilders need carbs to function properly and minimize risk of injury. If the goal is fat loss as a bodybuilder keto is fine, but you have much higher risk of injury especially if you go heavy. The water retention from high carb diets is what helps protect the joints and muscles when going heavier. Do with that information what you will. Have a blessed day.
Reached my goal weight today of 225, down from 278 thanks in part to the great advice from Dr. Berg!!!🎉
Nice topic Dr. Berg, I learned something about glycogen & keto & also how to manage muscles while doing keto. Been to keto for 4 months now with IF and it does helped me in losing some weight effectively. I even surpassed my targeted weight. I lose 2kg for almost 2months. But lost some muscles too, luckily I found the reason behind it thru this video. Still learning everyday not just about health. I'm a follower of your channel Dr. Berg. I'm from the Philippines. More power to your channel. Blessings!
Thanks Doc!! You are Amazing!!🤘🦁🍗 Thanks for the tips!!
Glad to help!
Mr Berg, You read my mind sir.
Such good info! I’ve been wanting a pothos for my bedroom, now I have a good reason lol
I love you Dr. Berg!!! Thankyou!!!
Happy to be an inspiration!
BINGO! Thanks Doc: I stopped sleeping w open window next to bed. I didn’t connect my poorer sleep w it till this video!! THANKS again Doc! You da Man! p.s. thanks for turning me on to IF !
Thank you Dr Berg for thisbgreat information!
Now, is it possible to grow taller during middle age or later?
Thank you
❤Great topic. Thank you so much dr Berg. Have a good day ❤
You're very welcome! Glad you liked it.
Brilliant video Dr. berg!
Glad you liked it!
I love the fact you mentioned co2 when sleeping. Dr Andy Galpin talks about how any little factor could hinder progress. Even one instance where a tree in your neighborhood could cause allergies.
So much info here! I recommend watching it twice. Lol
This is great! It’s difficult to avoid temptations while on keto initially, until you understand the mechanism of what you’re winning. And that’s the context you provide with your videos! For me, it’s been the sleep! I have put on more weight on my midsection despite being on OMAD lately though. I gained some of that weight back, but my sleep is consistently great and my mood has improved as well as my digestion. I guess it’s just a matter of being patient! Thank You!
Thanks for sharing valuable information.
Glad to help!
Thank you so much Dr Berg
Most welcome!
Excellent, Again! Thanks!
Thanks a lot! I hope you found it useful.
4:23 Plants consume O2 at night. During photosynthesis they release O2 in the day. At night you are increasing CO2 with plants in your room...
Need to look at the the % on the suggestions, there were a few that I would put most of my effort towards: IF, Exercise, Heat therapy (ie sauna, heat suit during exercise) these were the three things that made the biggest difference if you're already on a low carb like you should be.
Thank you so much Dr. Berg 🎉🎉🎉
You're most welcome!
Always wondered why I have good night sleep after a good sauna session.
Brillant, it is a surprise cold water immersion therapy! Could you give some reference, thanks❤❤
Thank you! Perfect timing for this old lady!
You're a smart lady! 😎
@ImRight2023 lol you're RIGHT, according to your handle lol 😆 Thank you!
Loved the white board with the script writing.
Thank you my doctor. 🙏👏🥰💕
You're very welcome!
Thanks for info 😊
I'm glad you found it. Hope it helped.
Thanks doc, we love you from Ghana 🇬🇭, kindly do a video on how keto diet helps or impacts CKD........

Thank you. Wishing you the same.
Thank you Dr. Berg. Grateful.
I appreciate your comment and I'm glad you enjoyed the video!
ipamorelin/sermorelin is a game changer! I'm curious of your thoughts on it. Doesn't seem to have any negative effects at all.
I'm definitely short, and need some fat burning, thanks Doc. 😊
Hi,
Can you make a video about T-cell activation or and different ways we can do it. How we can safely increase the T-cells as they are crucial for human body defense.
Love your content.
_Prolonged fasting_ reboots the whole immune system. I've done it to heal a severe histamine intolerance. My max is 134 hours.
Check out Pottenger's Human TH-cam channel. He recently did a video on T cell regeneration. 72 hr fast was and is a definite T cell regeneration hack. Plus his videos are always so informative and his research is 2nd to none.
Good information
thanks to god I met you❤
That Pmg was gooood
Thank you very much. My pick is to pump up my pituitary gland; fyi meditation also rejuvenates the gland and you might reco some good breathing yogic ex as well
I’ve always been told that plants consume O2 at night. May want to check on that. Otherwise as usual this is a great piece of information.
You are the best!
Thank you so much!
Thank you, Dr. Berg
You're very welcome.
If you have control over your thermostat, keep the Fan setting to "Circulate." This will keep air moving periodically even when heat/cool is not needed. (It doesn't impact electric bill very much). If you have a newer house it will draw some fresh air through an intake. If you have an older house, it will draw some fresh air through cracks. I bought a CO2 meter and found that two adults and one dog sleeping in the same room with the door closed will raise the CO2 levels to over 1000 ppm! Having the HVAC fan set on circulate brings it down under 800ppm, not great but livable. Having a window open should go below 500ppm for ref.
Wonder what my numbers would be opening my window here in the Oregon old growth rainforests
@@PhaseSkater probably under 300. We used to back up to a forest and I measured that with the meter placed outside.
