Ive just had my 74th birthday and was diagnosed with d2 last year i eat everything this lass recommends eggs bacon sausages cheese to be honest been eating these foods all my life my biggest weakness is chocolate but i dont eat anything after 6 o'clock in the evening just had my 6 month.check up and all is well feel great ive always been one to move about constantly walking cycling its everything in moderation dont drink much an occasional pint never had any serious illness i count myself lucky when i see people struggling with health problems in the end though we are all responsible for our bodies be it mental or physical
I’ve lost 10kg/22lbs in 26 days by only eating steak & 3 eggs fried in gee twice a day. I eat at 10am & 6pm & fast for 16 hours. I feel amazing & my knees are way less painful as I suffer from arthritis. I think I will be down to my target of 90kg in around another month! 😀
This is what Im doing now and i feek amazing. Been 2 weeks. all i used to eat was carbs and nothing else. I hadnt eaten meat in 15 yrs. i had aburger here and there but i have no back teeth plus meat didnt taste good to me because i was told eat meat with no fat Lol thats the worse thing. I feel amazing i was feeling so bad i was missing work and thing about suicide because i was so sick and no doctors helped. I tried this and the difference in a motnth almost is INSANE!
I am wondering how their bloodwork, specifically total cholesterol, HDL, LDL and triglyceride triglycerides are? Am I correcting one problem and sliding into another? Can’t start this until the doctor kindly explains how this works.
1. Eggs (especially yolks) 2. Fatty meat 3. Butter 4. Canned (fatty) fish 5. Hard cheese 6. Heavy whipping cream (optional addition of MCTs) 7. Nuts 8. Optional - no artificial sugars My 2 cents: make sure that your fish is sustainably sourced and ethically produced. World fish stocks have catastrophically crashed. I get my dairy and eggs straight from a local small holder farm and it's not much but I'm happy to support a farmer rather than a superstore chain
As a carnivore I haven’t been eating canned fish. It does actually seem like a smart idea for a smaller meal and I love sardines. I also have ketones daily to amplify all the great benefits of being in ketosis.
Who cares where your fish come from. You only care what it is and how it tastes. Have you ever flew over an ocean? Do you really think we are going to run out of fish, puddin' head?
@Darling Dear in general consensus no, aspartame doesn't spike insulin, but it is linked to a host of other issues. As far as sweeteners go, aspartame is not the best choice available.
Always had the conversation with my parents about my grandparents. They literally ate lard, etc etc and lived literally to 100, as did a lot of the greatest generation. The proof is in the food …
The medical community demonized eggs and butter and steak in the 70’s and 80’s. I ate it all anyway and frequently. I have a deep, unalterable distrust of the medical community when it comes to nutrition.
Been on carnivore meat and eggs no carbs for five weeks. I lost 11 pounds no water weight! My goal is to be 175 by October. I eat at 10 AM and 4 PM. It’s easy The sobering truth is I can be any weight I want on this food plan. Thanks Dr. Boz
Oh, you lost water weight during the initial no carb phase as your body used up your glycogen stores - as you used that glycogen.. you generated water and eliminated it! Do not be fooled .. first 3 to 4 lbs were water... but from then on ... body fat.
I’m listening to your audio book “Keto Continuum” while “crying with joy”because you’re helping me know “WHY” it matters “to me” Your adept story telling , in a deeply factual book, is SOOO inspirational! NO DOCTOR has ever explained “how to” coupled with the HUGE personal impact I can experience IF I follow what you explain!!! You’re absolutely AMAZING!! BRILLIANT!!! Incredible insight into who we are as humans! What will work while deeply motivating ourselves from our own personal and individual perspectives!! Not a rah rah reason!! It’s intimately unique to each individual person!! Brilliant!!! My deepest thanks to you, Dr Boz!! I honestly can’t thank you enough! Your words apply to EVERY part of my life!!!! Not just to lose weight via Keto!! Your brilliance is life changing!!!! ❤❤❤
Hormones are more important to weight loss than calories in/out. I learned years ago that stress hormones cause the body to hold onto that stubborn belly fat. Now understanding that insulin is a hormone, and that carbs can throw hormones out of whack; it is most important to cut carbs.
A endocrinologist once told me that the female body will 'fight to the end' to hold onto fat cells during menopause ? WHY? Fat cells contain estrogen and keeping it in the body is nature's way !
A year ago my normal morning BG would be 150 and a spike would be over 200, now my morning BG is 95 and I consider a spike any reading over 110, which is rare. Changed my diet to simple meals, meat, fish, eggs, cheese and other full fat dairy, salads and cruciferous veggies. The only pre-packaged "keto" food I use is Keto Chow to boost the protein of my dairy desserts. I used to eat ice cream, cookies, crackers, vegetables and fruit every day to the tune of 400 grams of carbs and 4400 calories a day. Now I eat 15 grams of carbs and 1600 calories a day and never feel the need to snack on carbs.
sounds like you're doing great. Only comment I might make is that I don't like ketochow for it's "natural and artificial" flavors, the sucralose, and the seed oils they use.
In both human and animal studies, taurine helped promote glycemic control, improved insulin resistance and protected against diabetes-related complications like neuropathy, retinopathy and nephropathy.
I’ve polled my friends and acquaintances who are doing well into their 90’s and pretty much all have two things in common, interestingly. 1) eating eggs daily. And 2) hanging from a bar most days. I think that the hanging part helps maintain your grip strength, which is correlates with longevity, and perhaps it helps respiration of spinal fluids. I’ve done both for the past couple decades and “so far so good”. I’m almost 60 years old, height / weight proportional, flexible, with a six pack still, and don’t need to take any prescription drugs. My brain seems to be agile still also (teaching myself AI programming and developing lots of new ideas that I come up with).
Sometimes the egg allergies are due to the antibiotics/feed. When my egg allergy friends eat our organic, free-range eggs, they don't have any problems.
@@trix4487I don't know what they feed their chickens, but you can get feed that is free of antibiotics and of soy. You can also feed chickens by letting them free range for most of their food if the situation is amenable to that.
You’re a remarkable doctor who is making a huge difference in peoples’ lives, mine included! Your presentations are not only helpful, but very engaging. Thank you!
Thanks very much for this information.i would also like to say i much prefer your presentation in this video as it is calmer and easy listening, thanks
I agree that the less hyper of your presentations are very listenable. Chaffee sounds the least hopped-up of all you carnivores. Some of you seem to mistake mania for vitality. The calmer and more serene your presentation, the easier it is to grasp and remember the substance.👍💖
I had the opposite experience. I took a blood test and had black coffee before hand, it was listed as allowed for this panel. I saw a warning that I was pre-diabetic at 104 glucose. I panicked and bought a blood glucose monitor. Then I found out that black coffee, even though it contains no sugars, artificially raises blood glucose levels. I tested in the morning when I was fasted and hadn't yet had coffee and my blood glucose was 79, in the healthiest range.
Yes, coffee with caffeine will release adrenaline, and with it glucose. Your body is in fight or flight on caffeine. It thinks you're going to need the glucose to fight or run.
Interested that the medical community tells us it’s okay to have black coffee before fasting labs when they should know doing so will increase blood glucose. It’s almost as if they WANT a high reading.
I watched a Dr. Berg video yesterday that warned against loading up on a lot of fat because if you do then your body will burn the dietary fat rather than your own fat. The Food Priesthood is kinda hard to follow.
@@MichaelSmith-fp7kdhe studies all the medical journals. Many “regular” doctors have no clue about nutrition and just push pills. My mom was diabetic and on every drug under the sun, she got sicker and sicker. My sister convinced her to get off all of them. She did, followed a sound nutrition plan, and her health and vitality was restored. The medical degree doesn’t mean they know what they are doing. Besides, Dr Bergs teachings and advice are consistent with other RD’s and naturopath doctors. I’ve raised 4 kids. I know A LOT about viruses and other diseases they’ve gotten. Experience and personal research taught me and anyone can do that
Adding my 2 cents here...I found that FROZEN Cherries or Blueberries in an insulated mug w 1/2 n 1/2 or cream or better yet Kiefer (non sweetened) for an awesome ice cream type snack...Also an excellent Hard cheese is called Beemster...its basically an aged Asiago with an incredible flavor
I don't know if you're aware of it, but h/h does have higher amounts of lactose than a keto follower should have. I didn't know that until about a month ago when I was listening to a keto cook here on YT. He briefly stated that he had to use heavy whipping cream in his ice cream desserts because he found out that there's more sugar in h/h than is comfortable to ingest. I like your idea of making an ice cream-type snack with the berries, and think I'll implement that tomorrow! I found a brand of kefir I like that is just plain, no sweetener, so that should work very well.
Parmigiano Reggiano, Grana Padano are made with part skim milk and are very low fat- probably the lowest of all cheese. Triple cream cheese like St Andre, Explorateur, Pierre Robert, or around 75 percent fat. Parmesan is 28-35 percent. Cheddar is around 60 percent.
Low magnesium can also cause fat gain and insulin issues because you need magnesium to keep cells sensitive to insulin. So if you have been under stress. Stress will zap ⚡️ magnesium like nothing else. Magnesium can actually help you lose weight. Plus adrenal fatigue can cause weight gain too.
Dr Boz you are a perfect example of a great Mentor for reverse insulin resistant improvement for sharing knowledge of a life saver Good Better you are the very best thank you
Did the reverse and fasted every second day. No meat, dairy, eggs, and went on a whole food, none processed eating regimen and had great results. Stayed away from oils, especially vegetable oils like margarine.
I wish someone would create a video for those of us who cannot get into ketosis because of adrenal fatigue......would be very helpful, especially for those of us with chronic health issues and insulin resistance.
Really really funny because this has been my diet for the last 30 years and I'm 61 this month. Nobody ever believes me when I tell them how old I am...most people generally guess I'm late 40's.I also have an extremely physically demanding job which I have purposely chosen to keep me as fit as possible.
I had 2 hard boiled eggs, 8 oz Ribeye, a half pound of ground beef, half cup of greek yogurt. I am a 50 year old female. Finally my six packs are showing. Never had a flat belly until I switched to carnivore which was 8 years ago. This is my typical first meal. OMAD is super easy with meats.
Also, 1. reduce your caffeine. With diet sodas (I had changed mine due to lack of stock not realizing it had caffeine) and coffee I was around 150 mg per day that was raising my cortisol all day long - and glucose (bonus I sort of lost my hunger) and 2. make sure you're getting enough water. I had no idea but yes being dehydrated can make your sugar more concentrated in the blood thus higher glucose level. I just could not get my glucose under 95 in the morning until I had 6 glasses of water. Next day, 69. Totally dramatic.
@Velma West….I had been hearing for some time now, that if you drink too much water, it washes out your minerals/electrolytes. One person mentioned that you need to drink your electrolytes all day, instead of plain water. This is all so confusing at times. Do this…don’t do that….this works for this person-but not for that person. It gets pretty overwhelming at times, just what to do when one has ‘tried it all’!
@@gracebe235 Drinking a bunch of plain water is not always a good idea. Add an electrolyte powder to it to ensure your not flushing out all of your trace minerals. You need to maintain a certain amount of potassium, magnesium, sodium and calcium. You’ll know you’ve gone overboard with water if you start to experience muscle fatigue, become light headed or dizzy and/or you start suffering from muscle cramps especially in the lower legs.
But do you know how hard it was to finally give up soda? I went to diet for a long time, pre-diabetic....gave up all soda and only drink unsweet iced tea and water and still became diabetic. No weight loss except for the loss from too much BG.
@@ronin2167…..I CAN TOTALLY empathize with breaking the soda habit….even diet soda! I have read that Zevia brand is among the best diet soda, but it’s expensive….and when you want a ‘cola’ flavor, Zevia’s cola doesn’t taste like cola at all to me. Diet Rite cola isn’t healthy, and it tastes a tad too sweet….but it’s what has been helping me ween off of Coke. Funny thing, after not drinking Coke for a while, and then when you taste it, it tastes horrible! It’s like you cleanse your palate from all of the toxins that were in it. Ginger Ale tasted more like Coke than Coke did, after not drinking it for a while. 😜 Now my husband has health issues and the doctor told him to stop the sugar…..now he sees what I mean by the Coke tastes awful after not having it for a while! Most artificial sweeteners in diet sodas spike blood sugar too. Some don’t though. It can take some time, but drinking a glass of water with a whole lemon squeezed into it, tastes pretty good to me….sometimes I add a pinch of Himalayan pink sea salt, yum! Plus, the lemon cleanses the liver. Good luck on your journey, I DO KNOW how tough the soda pop habit is!
Great video 😊🙏🏾💚. However it feels frustrating because other medical professionals state that we should follow a plant based diet to reverse insulin resistance and cut out animal fats. So many conflicting views.
There is really no conflict. The results speak for themselves, when u look at the overall general health of the US population. Keto without the processed keto junk food from the store, and Carnivore works to reset and help fight disease. Basic original human diet was NOT plants.
Wild caught north Atlantic mackerel in extra virgin olive oil..squeeze a little fresh lemon on it and ad fresh jalapeno..its delish....lost 45 lb in 4 months
my carb addiction kicked into high gear once i got clean off drugs. everywhere i went there was candy and caffeine. i never knew coffee turbocharged insulin reaction. so i started drinking water in large amounts whenever treats were present just to have something going in. then i started heavy weight training. i do five compound exercises: chest crossovers on the cables, seated cable pulls for lower back, lat pulldowns, squats, deadlifts , and sometimes i do seated incline presses. here's the key though. i put on as much weight as i can so i can only do 8 reps max. if i can do more than 8 i add weight. if i cant do 8 i take weight off. i dont do any isolation exercises like curls or dips etc. my shoulders are 60 years old and have been rebuilt. my knees have been carrying 280 lbs for years. i do at least three sets and i'm in and out of the gym in 45 min unless its busy. i do this 3 times a week. having a place for the anxiety and cravings to go really matters. instead of just sitting there, or bumming out that working out is too involved i just do a condensed heavy weight work out. then you get very strong and stretching or walking/biking is so much easier. my walks after eating are easier to get up and do and i feel so great after getting home from the gym and using their shower as long as i want lol. have you been noticing that fast food places are changing and some closing because of keto/weights?
This is exactly what I started doing now after gaining weight again, after being keto for 4 years, only this time at 57 (female) I’m having the hardest time loosing. Dropping all carbs is the most challenging but done it before. Thanks for reaffirming the right thing to do.
Same 57yo female and can't lose an ounce of weight. The way that I have been doing keto before when I lost 50 lbs is just not working. I've switched to carnivore this past week and my morning ketones was only 0.4😱 I'm seriously wondering what else can I tweek!?!🤔
cool. I knew most of this and I just had eggs and sausage links for breakfast. no toast. I Take extra virgin olive oil lemon juice and minced garlic every morning.
Be sure to avoid the seed oils. Basically any oil other than olive, coconut or avocado is really bad for your system. Potatoes will also pack the weight on. Avocado is great. And if you can eat eggs and,/or fish, that will help
whereas I agree with most everything here, should there be some concern over processed meats such as salami, prosciutto, and other sausages? I've always read to avoid them, so would like your insights on those. Charcuterie board comes to mind. I like it, but I'm not sure if cancer of the bowel or stomach could result from overindulging? I'm all in on grass feed beef, lamb, but not so sure about those aforementioned tasty treats.
No need to indulge in any processed meats if you are already eating the good meats you are eating. A rare piece of sausage is fine, even better if you can get it locally sourced or are doing it yourself.
I’ve been on keto before and I loved it but I got off of it and after I was diagnosed with genetic type 2 diabetes and I’d love to get back on keto I just don’t know where to start , my sister helped me but she died so I just need a brain refresher Asking for a friend !!
Your videos are fascinating but who do you listen to when it comes to lessening arterial plaque? Proponents of Keto or proponents of Dr. Ornish? Both have good arguments and are backed by science? Which is better? Which is healthier? I do not think there is a single person on this earth that can answer that question.
My family were farmers. Eggs, meat pork, beef and chicken, fat, home made cheese, raw milk and fresh vegetables. They all lived into late 80's and 90's. I still eat like they did and have had the same waist size for the last 55 years. Low sugar and no soda.
Wow I just watched your latest three TH-cam videos about insulin resistance… Recognizing IR, the second one and then the stubborn one. Great cadence lots of information good takeaways in short format. I have been your biggest advocate over on the Clearwater Saint Pete side of Tampa Bay. I look forward to seeing you someday soon hopefully and getting a sustaining boost from you!
That’s a win -win!! You should come to group! It’s free. Weekly 8-9AM at the Pin Chasers @ 4809 N Armenia Ave Tampa, FL It’s a “keto support group” led by me.
My physician seems far more concerned about my cholesterol than about my obvious insulin resistance. Every time I go in for blood work, she harps on my LDL. When I maintain my keto diet, but scale back on the butter, higher fat, beef, and cheese, she is pleased. What is an acceptable lipid panel to keep a doctor from chasing me around her office with a prescription for statins when I know I’m doing the right thing for insulin resistance repair? Is it just…get a new doctor?
Ldl should be high, it's the triglycerides that is the one to worry about Go listen to somE videos on TH-cam Dr Berry, Dr Berg ,many other cardiologist on there U won't go on a status once hearing what they can do. Some do definitely need, but not the majority the doctors think. Do your research, it's eye opening!
I am insulin resistant, but also have high cholesterol so I’m always confused when it comes to the right diet because one list conflicts the other 🤷🏽♀️
The liver actually produces cholesterol frequently found with insulin resistant patients and then they put on all kinds of meds and told not to do keto. The liver will heal itself if you get the insulin resistance under control. This doctor knows her stuff. Also Dr Berg. I would focus on improving your insulin and watch to see if the cholesterol improves as a result
Eat healthy fats. Chicken and Fish. Personally I would stay away from red meat and butter for instance. I agree with her in part of her presentation but not all. Use EVOO Not Butter. Completely stay away from anything made with flour and sugar. Eat lots of low glycemic vegetables and stick with berries because they are low in sugar. Eat in a 8 Hour window and never eat past 7 pm. It’s not hard and once you do it will become a good habit!
Not a ‘fair trade’ or low air/sea miles food also growing it is an environmental nightmare mono culture ruins biodiversity and needs huge amount of water……
@@vikingcat794i hate avocados on its own but now i love them and anyone who hates them will love them too if you blend it in a blender with some cilantro, green chilli less if u find it spicy, cumin seeds, fresh garlic salt and one lemon , have this with your eggs or just about anything it tastes awesome❤
4:36 no sugar substitutes ... the only exception to that is when I adding Ketones to their circulation.... How does one add ketones to the circulate... confusing...
When you consume mct oil or ghee or all the other fats, you are adding ketones exogenously into circulation to your body/bloodstream…meaning ur adding ketones into circulation through your mouth/eating versus your liver making it. When one is insulin resistant, one’s liver cannot make ketones easily so when removing the carbs, you’ll have no fuel because 1. No carbs and 2. Your liver cannot make them efficiently yet…so you must add them to your body through food in every direction you can, butter in coffee, etc. Since butter and fat are buffers to the effects of carbs or protein on the glycemic index, when you add fat to your coffee, you can also add the substitute…the fat will buffer the slight glycemic effect in the substitute sugar and you should be fine with your ketosis mission. Without the fat, the substitute sugar will trigger your pancreas to make insulin and when that happens, your body canNOT make ketones. Not only that, but you put your body in fat storage mode when pancreas/insulin is stimulated. So to recap, if ur insulin resistant, even a bit, you will do yourself a solid by eliminating sugar/carbs, your usual fuel source. Your body will be in shock so to avoid a super crash, you add the fats into circulation…she calls it adding ketones into circulation
This morning I had plain spinach, bacon and a fried egg for breakfast. It's evening and I went all day without eating and felt fine. Tonight I might have a little veggie soup. My hunger feels normal like it did when I was a kid. Just a note: In the 1960's our mom never gave us candy. Our only treat was on our birthdays with the birthday cake. A sprinkle of brown sugar on oatmeal was okay. She grew up in the depression where eating in excess was a luxury and sugar was a rare treat. Right after that was WWII when sugar was rationed. That generation and the kids of that generation tended to have normal weight. Most of her children had normal weight all their lives. If I don't stay on Keto, I start to feel terrible, so I stay on Keto. It's just better for me.
As a type 2 I am making progress but I notice I feel low blood sugar is 85 before it was 90 or more. Removing injectable insulin is my goal I am using Berberine but still need more support. I eat a lot of Russell stovers sugar free chocolate. So there is a place for change !
Russel Stovers is terrible for you!!! The first ingredient is maltitol which has a higher glycemic index, then table sugar. This will actually make you more insulin resistant.
My wife got off injectable’s in 3 days after switching to small food with 100 cal 14 carb 5 times a day(2.5 hrs apart) and one small meal. No spikes anymore. Why can’t supposedly smart doctors help people do this simple step?
I was watching and listening to one of your videos about three weeks ago, a short one, in which you said the same thing---no sweeteners if you're insulin resistant---and it finally clicked in my beanious brain what you were actually saying. I had heard Dr. Becky Gillaspy say that about two months ago, but for some reason it just didn't resonate. When I heard you say it three weeks ago, I finally realized what one of several (non, as in no success)-weight loss issues was; I was using Truvia sweetener in my coffee, as well as having a homemade keto dessert nearly every day. I realized, too, that my poor GI system was in pain and overworked (to be polite) because of the erythritol in the sweeteners. I stopped immediately using anything but stevia, one drop, in my coffee, and stopped making the desserts. Within just two or three days I was feeling much better, and my sleep quality had improved quite a bit. Now I'm not even using stevia--I truly hate the stuff, but thought I "had to" make my coffee sweet--and use only heavy whipping cream in it, just a small amount to smooth it out and cut any bitterness. The improvement in how I feel, as well as having lost more than 7 pounds in that short time, tells me I'm on the right track. I'm glad I actually listened to what you were saying, both then and in this video (I think the other one is actually newer than this one by at least a few months).
Try cold process coffee that which has never been heated, just steeped for 20 hours or so, it has virtually no bitterness. It turns into a concentrate that you can add to either cold or hot water. This is NOT iced coffee which is brewed coffee over ice. You may not need any additives with cold processed coffee. Cheers!
Bilal -- Dr. Berg is wonderful. He has SO MUCH GREAT CONTENT! BUT DR. BOZ IS A GENIUS IN HER OWN RIGHT. They are BOTH wonderful 😊!! Doctors:. BERRY, FUNG, LUSTIG AND CHRIS KNOBBE are also wonderful with different platforms!! The more I listen and learn... The better!! 😎
Dear Dr. Boz: I started with your Audible version of your book...but liked it so much, I ordered your printed version of your book as my own desktop reference book moving forward. The only thing I have never addressed is an adherent who had their gallbladder removed. Welcome to Florida, Btw. I hope to meet you at one of your symposia. Thanks for your guidance.
Would you recommend “just” these foods or also some leafy greens and non starchy veggies as well? I feel like just these foods might cause constipation?
What about the high GMO Non-Organic feed being fed to the animals that is affecting our health when we go to higher fat foods such as eggs, butter, bacon, marbled steak . . .
My glucose sits right at 100 all the time. Has my whole life. I did have a bad episode with it a couple years ago and spent a week in the ICU with glucose hitting 1000. (That was a trip! Hearing sounds that weren't there, monsters trying to eat me that weren't there and episodes of not being able to speak or if I did the words leaving my mouth had nothing to do with the words in my head. Hey, sugar is deadly!! lol ) Found my way eventually to keto about 5 months ago. Still my glucose wants to sit at 100 never far from it in either direction. But I was working on lowering it for the past week with less eating for the most part. I was keeping it pretty steady around 80 to 85. Being that low after leaving the hospital would have me all jiggy. Anything below 90 actually. But then yesterday while working outside I took a break with water and a handful of almonds. Shortly after I was nauseated and dizzy to the point of thinking I may pass out. Heat? no. Sugar..... 66. I don't know why I reacted to it as I did? But apparently my to low is higher than other peoples to low. A bit scary actually. The struggle is real.......
I pray for the ability to accept the harsh truth and behave in an awareness of that truth. I can and I will achieve better health because Dr. Boz continually pours out her purpose and I receive the gift of knowledge.
I pray for you and me to have willingness to pursue this way of eating. The fact that I am so resistant to giving up my carbs tells me that I am addicted to them. I already have type 2 diabetes and I'm on several medications. I turn 60 this week. I don't want morbid obesity for the rest of my life. I want the peace and physical health the keto / carnivore diet can bring. Together we can.
Is it ok to add hot sauce to my sardines without jeopardizing this diet. Please this is very important to me. Thsnk😊 you Dr. This is extremely important to me.
Thank you for a chance to live. I haven't been to the doctor in three years. I quit taking all prescribed medications in 2021. I just hiked the Arizona trail this year and my health has deteriorated since being home. I realize that smoking and a poor diet has caught up with me since having a quadruple bypass surgery in 2013 and if I don't make changes I will die soon and I don't want that to happen because there are many thousands of miles I'd like to hike still. I am 54 years old.
What if you’re insulin resistant and you have high cholesterol and osteoporosis? I get so confused with following great advice, but is this video good for people that have insulin resistance but also other conditions like osteoporosis and high cholesterol? Can someone do the ketogenic diet safely? my doctor told me no I can’t lose weight because of osteoporosis. Also stay away from high fatty meats because of the high cholesterol and limit your egg yolks. I’m so confused. I love your videos I watch them. Do you have any advice on this?
I really loved the last 3 clips I just watched: "Why I don't prescribe statins for high LDL cholesterol", "Get rid of Insulin Resistance Once and For All", and this one "The Secret to Lowering Stub born Blood Sugar", because they were really focused on what I really need to know now that (been on 'dirty' keto about 3 years now, and) I just left my doctors office. She said I have 'really high bad cholesterol', and offered to prescribe statins. Now I am less frightened and will try to get an LDL number instead. I am a little concerned about some of the fats I've been eating, i.e. Sour cream & mayonnaise made with canola oil.
@@simonbrown8509 good idea. I’m wondering what ‘brand’ you are talking about. I always get the highest fat, but haven’t seen ‘low carb’ sour cream anywhere. Isn’t it about what type of fat it has? Ie I recently found mayonnaise without canola. It was about 4x more expensive than regular and warned if a 2 month shelf life versus ‘2 years ‘, lol. It’s the canola and other cheap, unhealthy fats they hide in our food.
Well, that’s fascinating. Why would sour cream have any more carbs than heavy cream? I mean, isn’t the only difference fermentation? I’ll have to read up on that😉
That is exactly mine. Thanks a lot. I already doing keto (or that what I thought). Will try abandon sweeteners (but i am very addicted to sugary taste). Thank you. (Mohamed)

I am wondering how their bloodwork, specifically total cholesterol, HDL, LDL and triglyceride triglycerides are? Am I correcting one problem and sliding into another?
Can’t start this until the doctor kindly explains how this works.
@suzanneward6184 Your answers are all answered in the many uploaded videos.Spend a couple months watching Dr Boz and Dr Ken Berry
1. Eggs (especially yolks)
2. Fatty meat
3. Butter
4. Canned (fatty) fish
5. Hard cheese
6. Heavy whipping cream (optional addition of MCTs)
7. Nuts
8. Optional - no artificial sugars
My 2 cents: make sure that your fish is sustainably sourced and ethically produced. World fish stocks have catastrophically crashed.
I get my dairy and eggs straight from a local small holder farm and it's not much but I'm happy to support a farmer rather than a superstore chain
As a carnivore I haven’t been eating canned fish. It does actually seem like a smart idea for a smaller meal and I love sardines. I also have ketones daily to amplify all the great benefits of being in ketosis.
Who cares where your fish come from. You only care what it is and how it tastes. Have you ever flew over an ocean? Do you really think we are going to run out of fish, puddin' head?
no artificial sugars - but aspartame is two amino-acids linked together, is that going to raise insulin ?
@Darling Dear in general consensus no, aspartame doesn't spike insulin, but it is linked to a host of other issues.
As far as sweeteners go, aspartame is not the best choice available.
@@bronwynreijnders7205 so how do amino acids contribute to "a host of other issues" ? and these are essential amino acids
Finally I discovered someone who talks about health and keto diet who themself looks healthy and radiant! 😎😍
The ones that don't look healthy and radiant are either just starting out or doing it wrong.
This is crazy. So our grand parents, great grands, and farmers were right all along.
Always had the conversation with my parents about my grandparents. They literally ate lard, etc etc and lived literally to 100, as did a lot of the greatest generation. The proof is in the food …
Funny that isn’t it!?!?

Been on carnivore meat and eggs no carbs for five weeks. I lost 11 pounds no water weight! My goal is to be 175 by October. I eat at 10 AM and 4 PM. It’s easy The sobering truth is I can be any weight I want on this food plan. Thanks Dr. Boz
Has it worked? October is coming...
How did you do?
When people don't reply, you really wounder if they're ok.
Oh, you lost water weight during the initial no carb phase as your body used up your glycogen stores - as you used that glycogen.. you generated water and eliminated it! Do not be fooled .. first 3 to 4 lbs were water... but from then on ... body fat.
I'm interested to know what your cholestrol reading is? Just curious. Because high cholesyrol is a myth too
I’m listening to your audio book “Keto Continuum” while “crying with joy”because you’re helping me know “WHY” it matters “to me” Your adept story telling , in a deeply factual book, is SOOO inspirational! NO DOCTOR has ever explained “how to” coupled with the HUGE personal impact I can experience IF I follow what you explain!!! You’re absolutely AMAZING!! BRILLIANT!!!
Incredible insight into who we are as humans! What will work while deeply motivating ourselves from our own personal and individual perspectives!! Not a rah rah reason!! It’s intimately unique to each individual person!! Brilliant!!! My deepest thanks to you, Dr Boz!! I honestly can’t thank you enough! Your words apply to EVERY part of my life!!!! Not just to lose weight via Keto!! Your brilliance is life changing!!!! ❤❤❤
Hormones are more important to weight loss than calories in/out. I learned years ago that stress hormones cause the body to hold onto that stubborn belly fat. Now understanding that insulin is a hormone, and that carbs can throw hormones out of whack; it is most important to cut carbs.
A endocrinologist once told me that the female body will 'fight to the end' to hold onto fat cells during menopause ?
WHY?
Fat cells contain estrogen and keeping it in the body is nature's way !

A year ago my normal morning BG would be 150 and a spike would be over 200, now my morning BG is 95 and I consider a spike any reading over 110, which is rare. Changed my diet to simple meals, meat, fish, eggs, cheese and other full fat dairy, salads and cruciferous veggies. The only pre-packaged "keto" food I use is Keto Chow to boost the protein of my dairy desserts. I used to eat ice cream, cookies, crackers, vegetables and fruit every day to the tune of 400 grams of carbs and 4400 calories a day. Now I eat 15 grams of carbs and 1600 calories a day and never feel the need to snack on carbs.

My mom is 96 and 1/2. She's eaten 2-3 eggs every morning for breakfast
Mine did, too - and made it 99.5! It says a lot when they can still do that at that age. Healthy mom!
good to hear that mom did not fall for the 'avoid eggs' lie
@@honeytang3066 That advice was based on the very small number of people who get high LDL cholesterol from eggs. That's not most people! Hardly.
I’ve polled my friends and acquaintances who are doing well into their 90’s and pretty much all have two things in common, interestingly. 1) eating eggs daily. And 2) hanging from a bar most days. I think that the hanging part helps maintain your grip strength, which is correlates with longevity, and perhaps it helps respiration of spinal fluids.
I’ve done both for the past couple decades and “so far so good”. I’m almost 60 years old, height / weight proportional, flexible, with a six pack still, and don’t need to take any prescription drugs. My brain seems to be agile still also (teaching myself AI programming and developing lots of new ideas that I come up with).
My compliments. You get right to the point which stays in my attention span.
I’m DM2 and everything you say is spot on, with one exception. I do not experience satiety after fat.
Me too Karlern. I feel full but still want sweets. They say that means that one need to eat more fat.
Sometimes the egg allergies are due to the antibiotics/feed. When my egg allergy friends eat our organic, free-range eggs, they don't have any problems.
We have discovered this too - and with milk as well!!
What do you feed your chickens may I ask?
eggs-actly!
@@trix4487I don't know what they feed their chickens, but you can get feed that is free of antibiotics and of soy. You can also feed chickens by letting them free range for most of their food if the situation is amenable to that.

Thanks very much for this information.i would also like to say i much prefer your presentation in this video as it is calmer and easy listening, thanks

I had the opposite experience. I took a blood test and had black coffee before hand, it was listed as allowed for this panel. I saw a warning that I was pre-diabetic at 104 glucose. I panicked and bought a blood glucose monitor. Then I found out that black coffee, even though it contains no sugars, artificially raises blood glucose levels. I tested in the morning when I was fasted and hadn't yet had coffee and my blood glucose was 79, in the healthiest range.
Yes, coffee with caffeine will release adrenaline, and with it glucose. Your body is in fight or flight on caffeine. It thinks you're going to need the glucose to fight or run.
Same here!!
Interested that the medical community tells us it’s okay to have black coffee before fasting labs when they should know doing so will increase blood glucose. It’s almost as if they WANT a high reading.
In Ethiopia, where Arabica Coffee originated, a traditional way of preparing it is with a spiced salted butter. It is surprisingly good.
Starts at 2:01. Thanks!
Thx, very much!
I watched a Dr. Berg video yesterday that warned against loading up on a lot of fat because if you do then your body will burn the dietary fat rather than your own fat. The Food Priesthood is kinda hard to follow.
Don’t listen to a chiropractor.

@@MichaelSmith-fp7kdhe studies all the medical journals. Many “regular” doctors have no clue about nutrition and just push pills. My mom was diabetic and on every drug under the sun, she got sicker and sicker. My sister convinced her to get off all of them. She did, followed a sound nutrition plan, and her health and vitality was restored. The medical degree doesn’t mean they know what they are doing. Besides, Dr Bergs teachings and advice are consistent with other RD’s and naturopath doctors. I’ve raised 4 kids. I know A LOT about viruses and other diseases they’ve gotten.

Adding my 2 cents here...I found that FROZEN Cherries or Blueberries in an insulated mug w 1/2 n 1/2 or cream or better yet Kiefer (non sweetened) for an awesome ice cream type snack...Also an excellent Hard cheese is called Beemster...its basically an aged Asiago with an incredible flavor
I don't know if you're aware of it, but h/h does have higher amounts of lactose than a keto follower should have. I didn't know that until about a month ago when I was listening to a keto cook here on YT. He briefly stated that he had to use heavy whipping cream in his ice cream desserts because he found out that there's more sugar in h/h than is comfortable to ingest.
I like your idea of making an ice cream-type snack with the berries, and think I'll implement that tomorrow! I found a brand of kefir I like that is just plain, no sweetener, so that should work very well.
Parmigiano Reggiano, Grana Padano are made with part skim milk and are very low fat- probably the lowest of all cheese. Triple cream cheese like St Andre, Explorateur, Pierre Robert, or around 75 percent fat. Parmesan is 28-35 percent. Cheddar is around 60 percent.
Low magnesium can also cause fat gain and insulin issues because you need magnesium to keep cells sensitive to insulin. So if you have been under stress. Stress will zap ⚡️ magnesium like nothing else. Magnesium can actually help you lose weight. Plus adrenal fatigue can cause weight gain too.
My keto list:
avocado, Eggs, rotisserie chicken, cheese, roast beef, brisket, cofee, salads, sardines, Tea, Tuna, Peanut butter, MCT OIL and GHEE

Also, 1. reduce your caffeine. With diet sodas (I had changed mine due to lack of stock not realizing it had caffeine) and coffee I was around 150 mg per day that was raising my cortisol all day long - and glucose (bonus I sort of lost my hunger) and 2. make sure you're getting enough water. I had no idea but yes being dehydrated can make your sugar more concentrated in the blood thus higher glucose level. I just could not get my glucose under 95 in the morning until I had 6 glasses of water. Next day, 69. Totally dramatic.
Excellent info...Thank you!
@Velma West….I had been hearing for some time now, that if you drink too much water, it washes out your minerals/electrolytes. One person mentioned that you need to drink your electrolytes all day, instead of plain water. This is all so confusing at times. Do this…don’t do that….this works for this person-but not for that person. It gets pretty overwhelming at times, just what to do when one has ‘tried it all’!
@@gracebe235 Drinking a bunch of plain water is not always a good idea. Add an electrolyte powder to it to ensure your not flushing out all of your trace minerals. You need to maintain a certain amount of potassium, magnesium, sodium and calcium. You’ll know you’ve gone overboard with water if you start to experience muscle fatigue, become light headed or dizzy and/or you start suffering from muscle cramps especially in the lower legs.
But do you know how hard it was to finally give up soda? I went to diet for a long time, pre-diabetic....gave up all soda and only drink unsweet iced tea and water and still became diabetic. No weight loss except for the loss from too much BG.
@@ronin2167…..I CAN TOTALLY empathize with breaking the soda habit….even diet soda! I have read that Zevia brand is among the best diet soda, but it’s expensive….and when you want a ‘cola’ flavor, Zevia’s cola doesn’t taste like cola at all to me. Diet Rite cola isn’t healthy, and it tastes a tad too sweet….but it’s what has been helping me ween off of Coke.
Funny thing, after not drinking Coke for a while, and then when you taste it, it tastes horrible! It’s like you cleanse your palate from all of the toxins that were in it. Ginger Ale tasted more like Coke than Coke did, after not drinking it for a while. 😜
Now my husband has health issues and the doctor told him to stop the sugar…..now he sees what I mean by the Coke tastes awful after not having it for a while!
Most artificial sweeteners in diet sodas spike blood sugar too. Some don’t though.
It can take some time, but drinking a glass of water with a whole lemon squeezed into it, tastes pretty good to me….sometimes I add a pinch of Himalayan pink sea salt, yum! Plus, the lemon cleanses the liver.
Good luck on your journey, I DO KNOW how tough the soda pop habit is!
Great video 😊🙏🏾💚. However it feels frustrating because other medical professionals state that we should follow a plant based diet to reverse insulin resistance and cut out animal fats. So many conflicting views.
Mainstream doctors advice has gotten us nowhere! We are fatter and sicker than we’ve ever been before and they never talk about true nutrition.
There is really no conflict. The results speak for themselves, when u look at the overall general health of the US population. Keto without the processed keto junk food from the store, and Carnivore works to reset and help fight disease. Basic original human diet was NOT plants.
I love sardines! Way tastier than tuna!

my carb addiction kicked into high gear once i got clean off drugs. everywhere i went there was candy and caffeine. i never knew coffee turbocharged insulin reaction. so i started drinking water in large amounts whenever treats were present just to have something going in. then i started heavy weight training. i do five compound exercises: chest crossovers on the cables, seated cable pulls for lower back, lat pulldowns, squats, deadlifts , and sometimes i do seated incline presses. here's the key though. i put on as much weight as i can so i can only do 8 reps max. if i can do more than 8 i add weight. if i cant do 8 i take weight off. i dont do any isolation exercises like curls or dips etc. my shoulders are 60 years old and have been rebuilt. my knees have been carrying 280 lbs for years. i do at least three sets and i'm in and out of the gym in 45 min unless its busy. i do this 3 times a week. having a place for the anxiety and cravings to go really matters. instead of just sitting there, or bumming out that working out is too involved i just do a condensed heavy weight work out. then you get very strong and stretching or walking/biking is so much easier. my walks after eating are easier to get up and do and i feel so great after getting home from the gym and using their shower as long as i want lol. have you been noticing that fast food places are changing and some closing because of keto/weights?
This is exactly what I started doing now after gaining weight again, after being keto for 4 years, only this time at 57 (female) I’m having the hardest time loosing. Dropping all carbs is the most challenging but done it before. Thanks for reaffirming the right thing to do.
Same 57yo female and can't lose an ounce of weight. The way that I have been doing keto before when I lost 50 lbs is just not working. I've switched to carnivore this past week and my morning ketones was only 0.4😱 I'm seriously wondering what else can I tweek!?!🤔

Be sure to avoid the seed oils. Basically any oil other than olive, coconut or avocado is really bad for your system. Potatoes will also pack the weight on. Avocado is great. And if you can eat eggs and,/or fish, that will help

Could you do a video on what folate is good for diabetics who only listen to Sten Ekberg?
whereas I agree with most everything here, should there be some concern over processed meats such as salami, prosciutto, and other sausages? I've always read to avoid them, so would like your insights on those. Charcuterie board comes to mind. I like it, but I'm not sure if cancer of the bowel or stomach could result from overindulging? I'm all in on grass feed beef, lamb, but not so sure about those aforementioned tasty treats.
Good question. I always heard the carcinogens in those meats was cancerous. I stay away from all deli meats.
I would tend to agree with you
No need to indulge in any processed meats if you are already eating the good meats you are eating. A rare piece of sausage is fine, even better if you can get it locally sourced or are doing it yourself.
I’ve been on keto before and I loved it but I got off of it and after I was diagnosed with genetic type 2 diabetes and I’d love to get back on keto I just don’t know where to start , my sister helped me but she died so I just need a brain refresher

My physician seems far more concerned about my cholesterol than about my obvious insulin resistance. Every time I go in for blood work, she harps on my LDL. When I maintain my keto diet, but scale back on the butter, higher fat, beef, and cheese, she is pleased. What is an acceptable lipid panel to keep a doctor from chasing me around her office with a prescription for statins when I know I’m doing the right thing for insulin resistance repair? Is it just…get a new doctor?
Ldl should be high, it's the triglycerides that is the one to worry about
Go listen to somE videos on TH-cam
Dr Berry, Dr Berg ,many other cardiologist on there
U won't go on a status once hearing what they can do. Some do definitely need, but not the majority the doctors think. Do your research, it's eye opening!
You can have heart attack due to high cholesterol blocking your arteries or stroke and die that's why smdr is chasing you
Clarifying butter also reduces carbs
I am insulin resistant, but also have high cholesterol so I’m always confused when it comes to the right diet because one list conflicts the other 🤷🏽♀️
The liver actually produces cholesterol frequently found with insulin resistant patients and then they put on all kinds of meds and told not to do keto.
The liver will heal itself if you get the insulin resistance under control.

Eat healthy fats. Chicken and Fish. Personally I would stay away from red meat and butter for instance. I agree with her in part of her presentation but not all. Use EVOO Not Butter. Completely stay away from anything made with flour and sugar. Eat lots of low glycemic vegetables and stick with berries because they are low in sugar. Eat in a 8 Hour window and never eat past 7 pm. It’s not hard and once you do it will become a good habit!
Don't forget to cut out all processed foods and fruit until the numbers come down.

Hi dr why you never talk about having salads with our food?
4:36 no sugar substitutes ... the only exception to that is when I adding Ketones to their circulation.... How does one add ketones to the circulate... confusing...
When you consume mct oil or ghee or all the other fats, you are adding ketones exogenously into circulation to your body/bloodstream…meaning ur adding ketones into circulation through your mouth/eating versus your liver making it. When one is insulin resistant, one’s liver cannot make ketones easily so when removing the carbs, you’ll have no fuel because 1. No carbs and 2. Your liver cannot make them efficiently yet…so you must add them to your body through food in every direction you can, butter in coffee, etc. Since butter and fat are buffers to the effects of carbs or protein on the glycemic index, when you add fat to your coffee, you can also add the substitute…the fat will buffer the slight glycemic effect in the substitute sugar and you should be fine with your ketosis mission. Without the fat, the substitute sugar will trigger your pancreas to make insulin and when that happens, your body canNOT make ketones. Not only that, but you put your body in fat storage mode when pancreas/insulin is stimulated. So to recap, if ur insulin resistant, even a bit, you will do yourself a solid by eliminating sugar/carbs, your usual fuel source. Your body will be in shock so to avoid a super crash, you add the fats into circulation…she calls it adding ketones into circulation
Great guide. I had 6 eggs, bacon and sausage today. Feeling like I've been authorized after watching this video

This morning I had plain spinach, bacon and a fried egg for breakfast. It's evening and I went all day without eating and felt fine. Tonight I might have a little veggie soup. My hunger feels normal like it did when I was a kid. Just a note: In the 1960's our mom never gave us candy. Our only treat was on our birthdays with the birthday cake. A sprinkle of brown sugar on oatmeal was okay. She grew up in the depression where eating in excess was a luxury and sugar was a rare treat. Right after that was WWII when sugar was rationed. That generation and the kids of that generation tended to have normal weight. Most of her children had normal weight all their lives. If I don't stay on Keto, I start to feel terrible, so I stay on Keto. It's just better for me.
You explain this really well. thank you!
As a type 2 I am making progress but I notice I feel low blood sugar is 85 before it was 90 or more. Removing injectable insulin is my goal I am using Berberine but still need more support. I eat a lot of Russell stovers sugar free chocolate. So there is a place for change !
Russel Stovers is terrible for you!!!
The first ingredient is maltitol which has a higher glycemic index, then table sugar. This will actually make you more insulin resistant.
what kind of sweetener are they using in that Russell stovers sugar?
My wife got off injectable’s in 3 days after switching to small food with 100 cal 14 carb 5 times a day(2.5 hrs apart) and one small meal. No spikes anymore. Why can’t supposedly smart doctors help people do this simple step?

I was watching and listening to one of your videos about three weeks ago, a short one, in which you said the same thing---no sweeteners if you're insulin resistant---and it finally clicked in my beanious brain what you were actually saying. I had heard Dr. Becky Gillaspy say that about two months ago, but for some reason it just didn't resonate.
When I heard you say it three weeks ago, I finally realized what one of several (non, as in no success)-weight loss issues was; I was using Truvia sweetener in my coffee, as well as having a homemade keto dessert nearly every day.
I realized, too, that my poor GI system was in pain and overworked (to be polite) because of the erythritol in the sweeteners.
I stopped immediately using anything but stevia, one drop, in my coffee, and stopped making the desserts. Within just two or three days I was feeling much better, and my sleep quality had improved quite a bit.
Now I'm not even using stevia--I truly hate the stuff, but thought I "had to" make my coffee sweet--and use only heavy whipping cream in it, just a small amount to smooth it out and cut any bitterness.
The improvement in how I feel, as well as having lost more than 7 pounds in that short time, tells me I'm on the right track.
I'm glad I actually listened to what you were saying, both then and in this video (I think the other one is actually newer than this one by at least a few months).
Try cold process coffee that which has never been heated, just steeped for 20 hours or so, it has virtually no bitterness. It turns into a concentrate that you can add to either cold or hot water. This is NOT iced coffee which is brewed coffee over ice. You may not need any additives with cold processed coffee. Cheers!
I only listen to Dr Eric Berg and now you are also my guide. Thanks
Bilal -- Dr. Berg is wonderful. He has SO MUCH GREAT CONTENT! BUT DR. BOZ IS A GENIUS IN HER OWN RIGHT. They are BOTH wonderful 😊!! Doctors:. BERRY, FUNG, LUSTIG AND CHRIS KNOBBE are also wonderful with different platforms!! The more I listen and learn... The better!! 😎
@@debrahurtado5491Do check out Dr Sten Ekberg! I recently found him and am super impressed !!!
Dr Ekberg is very good also
Dear Dr. Boz: I started with your Audible version of your book...but liked it so much, I ordered your printed version of your book as my own desktop reference book moving forward.
The only thing I have never addressed is an adherent who had their gallbladder removed.
Welcome to Florida, Btw. I hope to meet you at one of your symposia.
Thanks for your guidance.
Would you recommend “just” these foods or also some leafy greens and non starchy veggies as well? I feel like just these foods might cause constipation?
What about honey in my mushroom coffee?
My daily meals. 6 eggs. 24 oz of protein. Some fermented veggies.
Sounds unnecessarily restrictive, IMHO. So how is that working for you?
do you worry about lack of diversity in the gut microbiome?
How can we purchase the powder "Dr Boz Max Strength Keto Combo BHB with MCT C:8 C:10" please. It is in this video but I can't find it. Thank you!
What about leafy vegetables. Its pretty hard to eat all that protein and fat without throwing some greens in there to lighten things up.
What about the high GMO Non-Organic feed being fed to the animals that is affecting our health when we go to higher fat foods such as eggs, butter, bacon, marbled steak . . .
My glucose sits right at 100 all the time. Has my whole life. I did have a bad episode with it a couple years ago and spent a week in the ICU with glucose hitting 1000. (That was a trip! Hearing sounds that weren't there, monsters trying to eat me that weren't there and episodes of not being able to speak or if I did the words leaving my mouth had nothing to do with the words in my head. Hey, sugar is deadly!! lol ) Found my way eventually to keto about 5 months ago. Still my glucose wants to sit at 100 never far from it in either direction. But I was working on lowering it for the past week with less eating for the most part. I was keeping it pretty steady around 80 to 85. Being that low after leaving the hospital would have me all jiggy. Anything below 90 actually. But then yesterday while working outside I took a break with water and a handful of almonds. Shortly after I was nauseated and dizzy to the point of thinking I may pass out. Heat? no. Sugar..... 66. I don't know why I reacted to it as I did? But apparently my to low is higher than other peoples to low. A bit scary actually.
The struggle is real.......
Lots of people are sensitive to almonds. I no longer eat them because they make me feel dizzy and weak.
Dr Boz is so incredibly beautiful mainly because she looks so healthy!
Change your food ~ Change your life💪🏽❤️ love your content
Yes! Thank you!
Dear Dr Annette, I would like to see a keto diet for vegetarians, please.
I pray for the ability to accept the harsh truth and behave in an awareness of that truth. I can and I will achieve better health because Dr. Boz continually pours out her purpose and I receive the gift of knowledge.
I pray for you and me to have willingness to pursue this way of eating. The fact that I am so resistant to giving up my carbs tells me that I am addicted to them. I already have type 2 diabetes and I'm on several medications. I turn 60 this week. I don't want morbid obesity for the rest of my life. I want the peace and physical health the keto / carnivore diet can bring.
Together we can.
Is it ok to add hot sauce to my sardines without jeopardizing this diet. Please this is very important to me. Thsnk😊 you Dr. This is extremely important to me.
Thank you for a chance to live. I haven't been to the doctor in three years. I quit taking all prescribed medications in 2021. I just hiked the Arizona trail this year and my health has deteriorated since being home. I realize that smoking and a poor diet has caught up with me since having a quadruple bypass surgery in 2013 and if I don't make changes I will die soon and I don't want that to happen because there are many thousands of miles I'd like to hike still. I am 54 years old.
Thanks Dr Boz. I'M ON IT! 👍
Excellent!
What if you’re insulin resistant and you have high cholesterol and osteoporosis? I get so confused with following great advice, but is this video good for people that have insulin resistance but also other conditions like osteoporosis and high cholesterol? Can someone do the ketogenic diet safely? my doctor told me no I can’t lose weight because of osteoporosis. Also stay away from high fatty meats because of the high cholesterol and limit your egg yolks. I’m so confused. I love your videos I watch them. Do you have any advice on this?
Thank you so much & I completely agree with you Dr. Boz.
Stay brilliant, Annette….you’re spot on!
I really loved the last 3 clips I just watched: "Why I don't prescribe statins for high LDL cholesterol", "Get rid of Insulin Resistance Once and For All", and this one "The Secret to Lowering Stub born Blood Sugar", because they were really focused on what I really need to know now that (been on 'dirty' keto about 3 years now, and) I just left my doctors office. She said I have 'really high bad cholesterol', and offered to prescribe statins. Now I am less frightened and will try to get an LDL number instead. I am a little concerned about some of the fats I've been eating, i.e. Sour cream & mayonnaise made with canola oil.
No canola oil
The sour cream I get is around 4% carbs. Double (heavy) cream is about 1.6%. Perhaps you can just swap to that ?
@@simonbrown8509 good idea. I’m wondering what ‘brand’ you are talking about. I always get the highest fat, but haven’t seen ‘low carb’ sour cream anywhere. Isn’t it about what type of fat it has? Ie I recently found mayonnaise without canola. It was about 4x more expensive than regular and warned if a 2 month shelf life versus ‘2 years ‘, lol. It’s the canola and other cheap, unhealthy fats they hide in our food.
Well, that’s fascinating. Why would sour cream have any more carbs than heavy cream? I mean, isn’t the only difference fermentation? I’ll have to read up on that😉
Stay off the statins!!!!!
What if you are a vegan? Do you have any suggestions?
Do you know what channel you're on? I think you're lost.
How longs it take to fix insulin resistance, a month or a year?
That is exactly mine. Thanks a lot. I already doing keto (or that what I thought). Will try abandon sweeteners (but i am very addicted to sugary taste). Thank you. (Mohamed)
