Imo, I feel so good after I drink fresh vegetable juice...kale, cauliflower, parsley, celery, beets, cucumber, aloe, peppers, with lemon and chia. I think the secret is immediately after drinking it, you must do some vigorous exercise to burn off the carbs. I still eat salad later in the day for fiber, but there is no way I can eat so many healthy veggies without juicing. Way better than supplements.
Called Ole Dennis out. Love it! Thanks Dr B for all you do. Just broke through weight plateau 190 lbs. Goal 180 by 61 birthday Nov 6. Keto and IF beating diabetes!
Ok so I don’t do keto or iF so I can’t speak to those things but juicing is one of the best things I ever did for my body. It helps my stomach issues, it gives me tons of energy and I don’t have cravings at all. I always have done carrots and apple and celery. I don’t like celery at all so the apples help cover the taste. Anyone who has had a successful juicing journey will find it very addicting and will want to juice daily. Just my 2 cents for those who are here for supplement info but aren’t doing keto. Please don’t harass me....not trying to get anyone who is keto off their diet. 💜💜💜
@Diansimplifies, Good post. I am a big of an of eating Keto but I have done 30 day juice fasts. And like you have had fantastic results with them. Turns my digestive system into a champion, get loads of energy so on and so forth.
I would never do a juice fast. Doesn’t make sense to me. I would perhaps do homemade bone broth. I need protein, collagen. I’d look like an old hag doing a juice fast at my age.
@@WWGWGA-bi2rv It depends on how long you do it for. Your body is more than capable of going without protein or collagen for a few weeks without any negative effects. Pending on how healthy you are it can even go for a month or even longer. I went an entire month on a juice fast without any problems in my skin, joints and lost very minimal lean muscle. But yes a prolonged juice fast, some people do it for a year. You'll have serious protein and collagen deficiencies which will cause problems. So no, you won't look like an old hag if you do a juice fast provided you don't do it for an extremely long time. In fact your skin will probably look better after 2 weeks.
I start my morning with an Uber green juice. All greens with lemon. Then I drink a protein plant shake and then I eat a salad at 1 pm. That’s it until the next morning. Each day all year. I feel fabulous. Never tired or low energy. I think the key to any person is to find Your own balance and stay consistent. It works and life is beautiful.
Dr. Berg - I’m sure juicing kicks a person out of ketosis, but it is how I initiallly lost weight accidentally and got healthier too. The juicing was in combination with other aspects of the Gerson therapy. I suspect there is a lot more to it than just the grams of carbs. There has to be something about concentrating the nutrients (using organic) combined with enzymes (in the fresh juice as well as supplemental - similar to your gallbladder formula). It’s way out of the realm of ketosis, but maybe squarely in the realm of autophagy, maybe? There are carbs in Gerson, supplements and digestive enzymes, and lots of potassium. But limited grain. Without trying to lose weight, 60 lbs came off without me trying. I didn’t have a scale, but two trips to a clinic over 6 months confirmed why my pants were falling off. I seriously want to understand. Edited to add - I was pre-diabetic and had high cholesterol, but 6 months into this, my numbers were normal.
Christiane Marshall * If you had SIBO it might have helped eliminating the fiber since that is what gut bacteria feed on. 🤔. Juice is still high is vitamins and potassium. I don’t think we will ever have all the answers to our bodies. 😜
Ruth Garcia Interesting idea, but I’m pretty sure I never had that. I appreciate your comment. I am very curious to better understand what happened during those six months.

I listen to my body. If i juice vegetables/ fruits: my stomach does so much better. With smoothies; I bloat/ get hungry like nobody's business, my stomach looks bulgy, and sometimes i ever get headaches for not being able to digest it properly. I have done keto; lost the weight, still fast 2 to 3 times a week but i break my fast with fresh pressed juice.
"You're going to have to do your own conversions Denis" haha feels like I'm in class and Dr Berg just gave Denis homework 🤣. Another great video! Thanks Dr Berg!
For those who juice fast or are interested in juice fasting- You go into ketosis while juice fasting over 3-5 days. Your body experiences a biophysical fasting state. Get labs done if curious. Awesome stuff.
I did keto for 6 months back in 2018. I had rapid weight loss in 2 weeks, steady weight loss for 6 weeks, it then plateaued. I started to get really lethargic, after that the weight started a go up with a lot of muscle, strength and energy loss. I prefer to exercise every day and fuel my workouts with carbs, I'm currently at 12% body fat and strong as ever. I still use keto every 3-6 months to reset my metabolism a little but only for up to 7 days at a time. A keto lifestyle doesn't suit everyone's genealogy. But it has its place.
I used to work out 5 days a week, but I couldn't lose a single pound while still doing IF. I added keto when it was too hot to work out (I was literally slipping all the time because of the sweat), but now I feel too tired to work out again. I also eat every other day, and perhaps it's a bit extreme, but I am almost done with my weight loss and I also have a serious POCS problem. I'm sleeping a lot though, compared to the past. I think keto has its place too, and it's not when you're basically fit and don't need to lose much weight. Enjoy your carbs, bless you :°)
I’m doing a ketogenic juice fast. In strong ketosis since day three. I’m having a proximately 2 L per day (for Americans that’s 8 cups). My juice is celery, cucumber, parsley, ginger, and lemon. In ketosis but there may be nutrient signalling that alters autophagy.
During fasting, insulin levels and glycogen stores decrease, leading your body to naturally start burning fat for fuel. For anyone who struggles to reach ketosis while on a keto diet, adding intermittent fasting may effectively jumpstart your process.👍
Tomas Hull Tomas Hull it depends whether you are insulin resistant or not. if you are insulin sensitive you wont burn muscle in any circumstances. you burn muscle because you have too much insulin which prevent fat oxidation even if your glucose deep low when this happen your body goes into panic mode and release panic hormones which burn muscles to create immediate energy. but once you start fixing insulin resistance it will be easier to burn fat without losing muscles.
You never used the word “blend” which is key. Veggies should be BLENDED not juiced! I blend 7 cups spring mix, 1 small carrot, 1/2 bell pepper, 1 stalk celery, 1/2 cucumber, 1 cup dandelion greens, with 4 tablespoons lemon juice and 2 cups water. Then I add 1 scoop of Electrolyte Powder. So yum 😋. Sometimes I use parsley or beet tops or sauerkraut. I drink 1 hour before my meal. I am OMAD.
Same here, blend my veggies and drink them 2 hours before my OMAD (because I add collagen to the juice). I takemy supplements with my blended veggies (beets, lemons, fresh turmeric, one orange i know that oranges are not healthy). But I'm off all other carbs.
@stubs Are you really sure that juice go directly to the blood stream? Any proofs provided by scientific literature? You can link directly, i am curious to read it. Thanks.
Juice isn't fiber-free. It removes the insoluble fiber but much of the soluble fiber remains in the juice. So, there are less carbs in it due to soluble fiber that remains
Why the hell juicing removes the fiber I put veggies in a blender and drinking it Does that also remove the fiber? Someone need to explain Because i hate eating veggies
@@Vergil1876 blender is different from a juicer. You get a smoothie from a blender (with the fibre) but a juice from a juicer (without the fibre / for the most part atleast)
It's important to mention that when juicing we are physically removing the carbs containing fiber we count the net carbs just the same as if we ate it whole.
My juicing protocol was not standard. I'd juice the greens (not kale.. can't stand kale) but parsley, cabbage, celery, spinach, misc salad greens (organic) add ginger and turmeric sometimes a pealed lemon.. Then move on over to the blender and put an avocado in the juice to make a smoothie. For me, this is a meal.
This is a really informative video about juicing while on a keto and intermittent fasting plan. It's great to see Dr. Berg provide clear explanations about why juicing may not be the best idea for some people. Our own experience with juice fasting has been interesting too, as we found it to be a great way to reset our digestive system and improve our overall health. Thanks for sharing your knowledge, Dr. Berg!
1 cup is very close to 240 mL. Most people interchange a quart with a liter. ( it is about .946 L) 4 cups to a quart so a cup is about a quarter of a liter.
I do blended greens (Celery, Moringa powder, Garlic, Alma powder, Cayenne, Avocado, Hemp seed hearts, Lemon or ACV) sometimes, but as a meal during eating hours...I love my VitaMix =D Thank You Dr Berg
Thankyou for all your informative videos. You didn’t mention soluble fibre which is retained when using a masticating or cold press juicer. You also retain a certain amount of insoluble fibre. A fresh juice combining carrots, beets, lemon, ginger, zucchini, cucumber, apple and celery (for example) is so wonderfully good for you. If inclined you could always combine with a free range organic raw egg. I’m not saying this will keep you in ketosis but it won’t dramatically raise blood sugar levels either. It’s a great way to enjoy consuming many more vegetables than you realistically otherwise would. Your thoughts Dr Berg if you read this?
I do intermittent fasting per Dr Berg's suggestion. My eating window for keto food is 12pm to 6.30pm every day. All other times I'm not eating. My office has just implemented the Sirtfood Diet regime as a wellness bonus for the staff (the diet the singer Adele lots tons of weight on). It's all free so I thought why not. They expect you to take care of your food needs yourself but they do provide the green juices 3 times a day which will happen for the next four weeks. I started keto a few days before this happened at work and I'm finding it pretty awesome. For the first time in my life I'm not craving anything, not sugar or refined carbs, not honey soy chicken flavoured chips, not custards or ice cream, or any number of foods I was addicted to before. I'm also eating less in general and I'm exercising every day but not getting ravenously hungry afterwards like I used to. I understand Dr Berg's reluctance about the juicing strategy and you have to figure out what works for you, but for me, the juicing is pretty awesome. Each juice cup we get is only 250 ml, or 8.5 ounces. There's also quite a lot of fibre left in the juice, so I guess that helps too. I also pee on the Ketostix every day so I can see I'm burning ketones for fuel and not carbs and I check a few times a day and it helps keep me on track.
I'm doing the same! So 12-6 sounds good to me! I water fasted for 3 days and broke my fast last night with a coconut milk, half avocado, macadamian/walnut, mixed berry, mixed greens smoothie. I have SO much energy and can't imagine eating for a few hours as I'm not hungry snd have so much energy after not having much prior. But I'm a tad swollen in my face (I have Hashimotos). Anyway. So if I juice/smoothie from 12-6 for a few days and then introduce solids a few days later (vegan keto) and still eat between 12 and 6...im ok?? I really want to lose weight and get to Ketosis...not there yet I don't think. Need keto sticks. I've lost 6 pounds so far but probably water weight..
Can you do a full guide on nootropics? focusing on: when to take each supplement? with a meal or fasted? combining certain foods\supplements for better effects? what to avoid? (marketing stuff) Thank you Doc, i really appreciate your videos!
Juicing carrot, celery, and beet stops my palpitations within 5 to 20 minutes. Everytime. If I cant juice beets, they continue until I do. I figured this out almost by accident, my cardiologist was useless.
It's still wrong, juicing doesn't make the body do work to extract ingredients in fruit/veg. Juicing is a fool's paradise. A massive Insulin surge because of the speed of absorption will cause inflammation & this surge will persist for a long time.
@@songsofthecentury3909 i dont call it juicing because i put in blender, its thick as hell, not even close to consistency of juice. What im doing is just skipping the chewing part because my blender does it for me.
@@songsofthecentury3909 i highly doubt it spikes my insulin because when i drink this i dont feel hungry for rest of the evening. While i do get hungry from an orange juice from the store
I use a blender.. not a juicing machine, but a fast means no foods!! Water ,tea ,coffee only...I am enjoying "smoothies ". Not fruits or if I use a fruit it is a berry of sorts...not a lot though...kale ,beet ,tops,garlic, parsley, green powder..ginger, lemon, cacao...no cravings after consuming this.
I’m gonna do juicing for 2 weeks starting next week for my 60hrs fasts. I lost 20lbs in 3 weeks I wanna lose another 15-20 in the next two weeks to get to my first goal. So far it’s been easy to maintain and I don’t have any cravings either.
Maria Lopez no ,bread sugar or cereals, follow Dr. Peter Osborne’s website The gluten free society or read his book No Grain No Pain, you can reverse and get rid of your diabetes, you don’t have to be a Celiac to follow his site and you need to cut out,do not eat all gluten, even those products that are gluten free because they contain ingredients like rice products that you should not eat.,no grains (which include no rice,no corn.) read his book,very informative.
I actually juice veggies and have no problem with jumping into ketosis immediately after and it lowers my glucose. I think it depends on what you’re juicing.
I’m interested as to why with unlimited high carb juice the body still goes into ketosis. I know this because I’ve done prolonged juice fasting and maintained high ketosis. Curious as to why that is?
Everyone has a carb threshold based on activity, age, metabolism etc. You could very well be consuming 50grams of carbs and still in ketosis but others may get kicked out if they reach 25 grams
But you said that drinking water dehydrates you... And well I'ven't had ANY water for over a month now, and honestly I'm never thirsty. I now understand that feeling thirst wasn't normal. It meant that I was depleted of minerals. Why is it a bad idea to replace water with vegetable juice? (cucumbers are fruits but you get the idea) I'm never going back to drinking water... humans are not supposed to drink water. Rarely I might feel thirst for water on days that I didn't have any veg/fruit/juices but I've learned the hard way not to drink water, because that ONLY makes me thirsty all day long. So I instead drink vegetable juice. (or some other things that I'm not allowed to talk about here)
If you blend the vegetables into a juice you are then consuming the fiber. If you juice by crushing the vegetables you don't consume the fiber, plus the enzymes in the vegetables aren't killed off by the friction heat created by blending blades.
I do this and I never get sick because of the benefits!! I even helped many people with my methods and I have the Dr asking how their patients..who had issues are now feeling better lol
Dr. Berg I grow my own organic cucumbers. We blend the whole cucumber then freeze in small cubes. I later add a little water to the frozen cubes and blend with stevia and lemon or lime juice. Since I started your wheatgrass juice powder I add that in too. If I drink this during my fasting time will it break my fast?
Can I mention that by juicing we increase the amount of concentrated suger? Talking about juicing, what about milkshakes, milk+whole avocado+black chocolate powder? This combination just fulfill me so fast even when I am too hungry and keeps me satisfied for hours!
Hi Dr.Berg, I can do IF for 18hrs no problem (in fact 23hrs before I get any sensation of hunger). I get up at 6.30 every morning and drink a smoothie using unsweetened almond milk, 2-3 stalks of organic celery, 1 organic avocado, 3 'cubes' of frozen Kale or spinach & a tablespoon of organic spirulina, a coffee with a tablespoon of coconut cream & a little stevia afterwards. I eat broccoli & some kind of protein for lunch at 1:30 then a small bit of protein with cauliflower mash/broccoli for dinner around 6:30pm. My question is this: what should I change or how do I incorporate IF and keto into my daily routine - am I doing okay as I am or do I need to change anything to maximise my chances of losing weight & eating healthily?
That's literally what I'm doing! I'm doing vegan keto and worried that I'm not eating as much...just broke my 3 day water fast to start off the Ketosis and switching to Keto juicing and smoothies for 2 more days and then will start eating Keto meals. I see meal plans and they are SO HEAVY...even the vegan ones! I wonder if it's ok to intermediatly fast while on Keto. I used to crave and eat every 5 minutes but after the fast...im barely hungry!
I'm starting making juices of vegetables and fruit, but I blend it, so all the fibers are there. I'm not exclusively keto, because I don't like any extremes, but I would appreciate some guidance in that. Unfortunately you always talk to the keto audience, and there's nobody there talking to a moderate keto. Is it so wrong?
Is the reason I feel sick when eating avocados is because I don't have enough bile to digest all the fat? I figured out I could have a quarter of a small avocado in a veggie smoothie with no problem, but other amounts make me feel like throwing up and yesterday I also got a headache.
Me too. i used to get sick with avocado then I noticed that when i exercise intensely and eat avocado afterwards i feel good. So between having ATP and bile. Fat needs a ton of ATP to digest so i guess that's why i feel OK when i eat avocado after an intense exercise like spin class.
Okay, so leave out the carrots in my juice. Drink the juice and then eat the fiber! I can always feel the juice as it goes through the cells of my body. Feels great!
Hello juicing friends👋🏼 I’m looking for a new, better, more high quality juicer any advice/suggestions would be very appreciated!!! Let Food Be Thy Healing!!!❤
my late meal few sticks of celery and cucumber with nuts butter or tahini home made , I only chew them and extract the juice from them and spit the fibers , It help my craving for suger . also It is a good way to use jar muscles .
I'm confused. Can you drink celery juice and intermittent fasting? Will it break your fast? Also can you drink, pysillum husk while fasting? Well it break your fast?
OOOH! Dr.Berg you are so throughout... . it is like you are reading my mind......how i am experienciencing keto w/my challenges!!! Thaaaanks.....this video is enhancing improving my keto life 👏👏👏🙏❤😅
Future video question(s) - Could you do a series of vids about Keto and fasting for adult athletes (40-50 hour work week w/ 10 hours of competitive exercise after work/weekends)? Optimal body fat ranges. Supplemental exercise to keep the body aligned properly (EG I watched a way earlier video about pelvic imbalance and it's helped a ton). ETC ETC
Bogus Hype Thanks! I stick to Zevia brand soft drinks when I do have one. Not the same, but no caffeine or coloring. Love their Ginger Root Beer and Ginger Ale. When I do need a cola fix, I have to admit, I grab a Coke Zero and revel in the taste and toxicity! 😬
What do you think about the downside of fasting? Using up stem cells, libido, cold, decreased muscle mass?? Other ways to stimulate autophagy for example exercise.
What MG of Inositol is needed? I can only find the capsules and powder online so where do I find the melting tabs? I’d prefer that type for sure. Thank you so much! I love learning from you!
Mr. Dennis has a point- he was probably asking for weight measurements conversions, because volume is not as quantifiable, ex.: a cup of kale does not weigh the same as a cup of water, or bean sprouts, so it might be a better bet to use weights, either ounces/pounds or grams, when listing food items 😊
My parents juice celery because their nutritionist said it will make them constipated if they don't... they drink it every day... I don't juice it, I blend it but after a week I stopped drinking it because of stomach discomfort... has anyone have a similar problem?
How about blended raw spinach and consuming the fiber? According to your formula, a cup of raw spinach has a net carb of .3 grams, less than half a gram. Would that break a fast?
I still lose pounds slower but it ok I believe I fallow you almost 3 months ago and I appreciate everything you did for everyone, I really didn’t put sugar at All in anything the my food I do eat flour and probably this the only carb y get in my food and my real food at 3 pm and 6 pm no to much food I can’t my body didn’t accept a take enough protein and grease,I don’t eat nothing until 1:45 or to only juice and coffee if I need
Dr. Berg, appreciate the content as always. Ive been working out 5 days a week for 5, 6 years now. I’m used to taking pre-workout before going to the gym. Would that completely ruin my intermediate fasting? I take C4 now
minus is not a verb :) still waiting for an explanation of how growth hormone goes up making less IGF - 1 during fasting, you still have my attention though
Well you can't deduct the fibre carbs if they are not there but they can't be counted if the fibre has been remove, found it a bit confusing in the video
I love your work Dr. Berg, but agree with that Denis to please use SI measures too!! You can make it easier for so many more people from all around the world who will understand your education faster and spread the healthy lifestyle more efficiently too!! Thanks! A Hungarian from New Zealand;)
Good Morning , Dr. Berg Thank you so much for sharing this very interesting information with everyone , Have a great day , God bless you all ! 🌞10/1/2020🌞
Um isn't it the fact that you are getting the net carbs from juice because the portion of the carbs that is fiber carbs is being removed during the juicing process causing you to not consume all the gross carbs as the fiber carbs are removed
I’ve been fasting since June along with whole vegetable juicing..... so I’m getting all the fiber from the veggies. I drink my veggie smoothie during my one meal. I’m down 25 pounds. I also walk daily. I’m not doing keto, but I’ve lowered my carbs dramatically. So far, I’m very happy with my results. 40 pounds to go!
Imo, I feel so good after I drink fresh vegetable juice...kale, cauliflower, parsley, celery, beets, cucumber, aloe, peppers, with lemon and chia. I think the secret is immediately after drinking it, you must do some vigorous exercise to burn off the carbs.

Same here, blend my veggies and drink them 2 hours before my OMAD (because I add collagen to the juice). I takemy supplements with my blended veggies (beets, lemons, fresh turmeric, one orange i know that oranges are not healthy). But I'm off all other carbs.
What is omad? If you don't mind me asking?

@stubs Are you really sure that juice go directly to the blood stream? Any proofs provided by scientific literature? You can link directly, i am curious to read it. Thanks.
Sunshine After The Storm one meal a day
Juice isn't fiber-free. It removes the insoluble fiber but much of the soluble fiber remains in the juice. So, there are less carbs in it due to soluble fiber that remains
I was thinking the same thing. People never mention the soluble fiber that remains when a person juice.
Why the hell juicing removes the fiber
I put veggies in a blender and drinking it
Does that also remove the fiber?
Someone need to explain
Because i hate eating veggies
@@Vergil1876 blender is different from a juicer. You get a smoothie from a blender (with the fibre) but a juice from a juicer (without the fibre / for the most part atleast)
It's important to mention that when juicing we are physically removing the carbs containing fiber we count the net carbs just the same as if we ate it whole.
My juicing protocol was not standard. I'd juice the greens (not kale.. can't stand kale) but parsley, cabbage, celery, spinach, misc salad greens (organic) add ginger and turmeric sometimes a pealed lemon..
Then move on over to the blender and put an avocado in the juice to make a smoothie.
For me, this is a meal.
This is a really informative video about juicing while on a keto and intermittent fasting plan. It's great to see Dr. Berg provide clear explanations about why juicing may not be the best idea for some people. Our own experience with juice fasting has been interesting too, as we found it to be a great way to reset our digestive system and improve our overall health. Thanks for sharing your knowledge, Dr. Berg!
1 cup is very close to 240 mL.
Most people interchange a quart with a liter. ( it is about .946 L)
4 cups to a quart so a cup is about a quarter of a liter.
I do blended greens (Celery, Moringa powder, Garlic, Alma powder, Cayenne, Avocado, Hemp seed hearts, Lemon or ACV) sometimes, but as a meal during eating hours...I love my VitaMix =D
Thank You Dr Berg
How do you feel after drinking juice?
@@pamsunshine9233 satiated, easy digestion and with good energy
Good! Thank you for your reply
Thankyou for all your informative videos.
You didn’t mention soluble fibre which is retained when using a masticating or cold press juicer. You also retain a certain amount of insoluble fibre.
A fresh juice combining carrots, beets, lemon, ginger, zucchini, cucumber, apple and celery (for example) is so wonderfully good for you.
If inclined you could always combine with a free range organic raw egg.
I’m not saying this will keep you in ketosis but it won’t dramatically raise blood sugar levels either.
It’s a great way to enjoy consuming many more vegetables than you realistically otherwise would.
Your thoughts Dr Berg if you read this?
I do intermittent fasting per Dr Berg's suggestion. My eating window for keto food is 12pm to 6.30pm every day. All other times I'm not eating. My office has just implemented the Sirtfood Diet regime as a wellness bonus for the staff (the diet the singer Adele lots tons of weight on). It's all free so I thought why not. They expect you to take care of your food needs yourself but they do provide the green juices 3 times a day which will happen for the next four weeks. I started keto a few days before this happened at work and I'm finding it pretty awesome. For the first time in my life I'm not craving anything, not sugar or refined carbs, not honey soy chicken flavoured chips, not custards or ice cream, or any number of foods I was addicted to before. I'm also eating less in general and I'm exercising every day but not getting ravenously hungry afterwards like I used to.
I understand Dr Berg's reluctance about the juicing strategy and you have to figure out what works for you, but for me, the juicing is pretty awesome. Each juice cup we get is only 250 ml, or 8.5 ounces. There's also quite a lot of fibre left in the juice, so I guess that helps too. I also pee on the Ketostix every day so I can see I'm burning ketones for fuel and not carbs and I check a few times a day and it helps keep me on track.
I'm doing the same! So 12-6 sounds good to me! I water fasted for 3 days and broke my fast last night with a coconut milk, half avocado, macadamian/walnut, mixed berry, mixed greens smoothie. I have SO much energy and can't imagine eating for a few hours as I'm not hungry snd have so much energy after not having much prior. But I'm a tad swollen in my face (I have Hashimotos). Anyway. So if I juice/smoothie from 12-6 for a few days and then introduce solids a few days later (vegan keto) and still eat between 12 and 6...im ok?? I really want to lose weight and get to Ketosis...not there yet I don't think. Need keto sticks. I've lost 6 pounds so far but probably water weight..
Can you do a full guide on nootropics? focusing on:
when to take each supplement?
with a meal or fasted?
combining certain foods\supplements for better effects?
what to avoid? (marketing stuff)
Thank you Doc, i really appreciate your videos!
I blend 2 stalks of celery in 32 oz of water with ginger and lime then strain off pulp, so basically I'm drinking celery water!
I have bad time digesting vegetable fiber when eating but juicing vegetables really helps me with it .
Juicing carrot, celery, and beet stops my palpitations within 5 to 20 minutes. Everytime. If I cant juice beets, they continue until I do. I figured this out almost by accident, my cardiologist was useless.
That's because you getting all the electrolytes from the veg
I always make smoothies with my veggies, so i include the fibers and everything
It's still wrong, juicing doesn't make the body do work to extract ingredients in fruit/veg. Juicing is a fool's paradise. A massive Insulin surge because of the speed of absorption will cause inflammation & this surge will persist for a long time.
Keto is a rip-off of Dr. Atkins(cardiologist) the original diet. Buy a 2nd hand copy from Amazon to understand the science behind keto.
@@songsofthecentury3909 i dont call it juicing because i put in blender, its thick as hell, not even close to consistency of juice. What im doing is just skipping the chewing part because my blender does it for me.
@@songsofthecentury3909 i highly doubt it spikes my insulin because when i drink this i dont feel hungry for rest of the evening. While i do get hungry from an orange juice from the store
Eliot Ness same. Blend up mix spring salad, apple cider vinegar, lemon juice, and I’m good. Sometimes I put in fruits.
Thank you Dr Berg. have lost 40 lbs on Keto so far. Thank you for all your teachings. ❤️🥓🍖🍗🥑🧈🍓🍤🍳🥩💯
That’s fantastic! Happy to hear that you’re doing well on keto! :)
I use a blender.. not a juicing machine, but a fast means no foods!! Water ,tea ,coffee only...I am enjoying "smoothies ". Not fruits or if I use a fruit it is a berry of sorts...not a lot though...kale ,beet ,tops,garlic, parsley, green powder..ginger, lemon, cacao...no cravings after consuming this.
Do you juice these vegetables or blend them into a smoothie?
I’m gonna do juicing for 2 weeks starting next week for my 60hrs fasts. I lost 20lbs in 3 weeks I wanna lose another 15-20 in the next two weeks to get to my first goal. So far it’s been easy to maintain and I don’t have any cravings either.
That's good to hear then! Keep it up!
-Dr. Berg's support team
You didn't confuse me. I'm glad to hear what you have to teach.
Wonderful Dr. Berg. Thank you for your life-changing information. 🙏
You're welcome! Thank you for watching! :)
Thank you so much. I have diabetics and would like to know what kind of sugar, cereals or bread can I eat
Maria Lopez no ,bread sugar or cereals, follow Dr. Peter Osborne’s website The gluten free society or read his book No Grain No Pain, you can reverse and get rid of your diabetes, you don’t have to be a Celiac to follow his site and you need to cut out,do not eat all gluten, even those products that are gluten free because they contain ingredients like rice products that you should not eat.,no grains (which include no rice,no corn.) read his book,very informative.
None!!
Thé whole point is to eliminate everything that increase your blood sugar. So none of those
Maria Lopez try swerve or monkfruit. I use both and sometimes combine them.
None!
I actually juice veggies and have no problem with jumping into ketosis immediately after and it lowers my glucose. I think it depends on what you’re juicing.
I’m interested as to why with unlimited high carb juice the body still goes into ketosis. I know this because I’ve done prolonged juice fasting and maintained high ketosis. Curious as to why that is?
Me, too!
laurenalexisvina This is interesting! What juices do you consume in your juice fasting?
@@YourJoyJunkie What juices do you consume when you juice fast?
Everyone has a carb threshold based on activity, age, metabolism etc. You could very well be consuming 50grams of carbs and still in ketosis but others may get kicked out if they reach 25 grams
But you said that drinking water dehydrates you... And well I'ven't had ANY water for over a month now, and honestly I'm never thirsty. I now understand that feeling thirst wasn't normal. It meant that I was depleted of minerals.
Why is it a bad idea to replace water with vegetable juice? (cucumbers are fruits but you get the idea)
I'm never going back to drinking water... humans are not supposed to drink water. Rarely I might feel thirst for water on days that I didn't have any veg/fruit/juices but I've learned the hard way not to drink water, because that ONLY makes me thirsty all day long. So I instead drink vegetable juice. (or some other things that I'm not allowed to talk about here)
I want to know more
@@angirosin566 me too
If you blend the vegetables into a juice you are then consuming the fiber. If you juice by crushing the vegetables you don't consume the fiber, plus the enzymes in the vegetables aren't killed off by the friction heat created by blending blades.
I do this and I never get sick because of the benefits!!
I even helped many people with my methods and I have the Dr asking how their patients..who had issues are now feeling better lol
Do what?
Dr. Berg I grow my own organic cucumbers. We blend the whole cucumber then freeze in small cubes. I later add a little water to the frozen cubes and blend with stevia and lemon or lime juice. Since I started your wheatgrass juice powder I add that in too. If I drink this during my fasting time will it break my fast?
Can I mention that by juicing we increase the amount of concentrated suger? Talking about juicing, what about milkshakes, milk+whole avocado+black chocolate powder? This combination just fulfill me so fast even when I am too hungry and keeps me satisfied for hours!
Hi Dr.Berg, I can do IF for 18hrs no problem (in fact 23hrs before I get any sensation of hunger).
I get up at 6.30 every morning and drink a smoothie using unsweetened almond milk, 2-3 stalks of organic celery, 1 organic avocado, 3 'cubes' of frozen Kale or spinach & a tablespoon of organic spirulina, a coffee with a tablespoon of coconut cream & a little stevia afterwards. I eat broccoli & some kind of protein for lunch at 1:30 then a small bit of protein with cauliflower mash/broccoli for dinner around 6:30pm. My question is this: what should I change or how do I incorporate IF and keto into my daily routine - am I doing okay as I am or do I need to change anything to maximise my chances of losing weight & eating healthily?
That's literally what I'm doing! I'm doing vegan keto and worried that I'm not eating as much...just broke my 3 day water fast to start off the Ketosis and switching to Keto juicing and smoothies for 2 more days and then will start eating Keto meals. I see meal plans and they are SO HEAVY...even the vegan ones! I wonder if it's ok to intermediatly fast while on Keto. I used to crave and eat every 5 minutes but after the fast...im barely hungry!
I'm starting making juices of vegetables and fruit, but I blend it, so all the fibers are there. I'm not exclusively keto, because I don't like any extremes, but I would appreciate some guidance in that. Unfortunately you always talk to the keto audience, and there's nobody there talking to a moderate keto. Is it so wrong?
Okay so 1 cup is 250ml for those who want to convert to the metric.
Very informative.Thank you for explaining it really well Dr.Berg
You're welcome! Thank you for watching!
Is the reason I feel sick when eating avocados is because I don't have enough bile to digest all the fat?
I figured out I could have a quarter of a small avocado in a veggie smoothie with no problem, but other amounts make me feel like throwing up and yesterday I also got a headache.
Me too. i used to get sick with avocado then I noticed that when i exercise intensely and eat avocado afterwards i feel good. So between having ATP and bile. Fat needs a ton of ATP to digest so i guess that's why i feel OK when i eat avocado after an intense exercise like spin class.
Ah, so it's not just me.
And I thought I was the only person who couldn't eat avocado without throwing up 😞
@@ogeanazia3230
I've never heard of ATP. I'll have to look into it.
@@shikhab2250
I don't actually throw up, but I feel really sick. Have you tried smaller amounts, like a half or quarter of a small avocado?
Excellent advice, right here. Thank you muchly for sharing this important information with us all. Take care & stay safe everybody. ❤🙂🐶
Okay, so leave out the carrots in my juice.
Drink the juice and then eat the fiber! I can always feel the juice as it goes through the cells of my body. Feels great!

Hello juicing friends👋🏼 I’m looking for a new, better, more high quality juicer any advice/suggestions would be very appreciated!!! Let Food Be Thy Healing!!!❤
my late meal few sticks of celery and cucumber with nuts butter or tahini home made , I only chew them and extract the juice from them and spit the fibers , It help my craving for suger . also It is a good way to use jar muscles .
I'm confused. Can you drink celery juice and intermittent fasting? Will it break your fast? Also can you drink, pysillum husk while fasting? Well it break your fast?
if you are doing exercise you can make up for eating maybe 10 - 20 grams extra carbohydrate,
depending on how much / type of exercise.
Berg. Straight celery juice is nothering. It is like 3g per 8oz.
I wouldn't drinking it all way but 6-8oz is great.
Now we need a whole video on inositol. Please and thank you.
Hi! You may want to check out this video: th-cam.com/video/OcMIipPq-lA/w-d-xo.html
OOOH! Dr.Berg you are so throughout... . it is like you are reading my mind......how i am experienciencing keto w/my challenges!!! Thaaaanks.....this video is enhancing improving my keto life 👏👏👏🙏❤😅
How to take nutrients while fasting? Can you do a video on that? @Dr Berg
Future video question(s) - Could you do a series of vids about Keto and fasting for adult athletes (40-50 hour work week w/ 10 hours of competitive exercise after work/weekends)? Optimal body fat ranges. Supplemental exercise to keep the body aligned properly (EG I watched a way earlier video about pelvic imbalance and it's helped a ton). ETC ETC
Dennis there is 250 ml to a cup.
1 cup is 8 ounces which is 237 mL
I drink carrot juice almost everyday and it has done wonders to my healthy to be honest. Juicing is great
I love how you pointed out Dennis lol
Thanks Doc! I do miss my OJ, but then again I miss an ice cold Coke...SO WORTH IT! IF 20/4
There's alrenatives to coke. Try Miami cola from bang soft drinks. They use sucralose instead of sugar and hfcs
Bogus Hype Thanks! I stick to Zevia brand soft drinks when I do have one. Not the same, but no caffeine or coloring. Love their Ginger Root Beer and Ginger Ale. When I do need a cola fix, I have to admit, I grab a Coke Zero and revel in the taste and toxicity! 😬
Haven't you lost the desire for these types of sweet things ?

What do you think about the downside of fasting? Using up stem cells, libido, cold, decreased muscle mass??
Other ways to stimulate autophagy for example exercise.
I used to juice every morning, I always had a good day, but that was 10 yrs ago, I still like your diet though
What MG of Inositol is needed? I can only find the capsules and powder online so where do I find the melting tabs? I’d prefer that type for sure. Thank you so much! I love learning from you!
I'd also like to know if Inositol can be used as sugar replacement and can it be heated (ie baking, steaming)?
That’s ok, Dennis. I know nothing about the metric system.
• Salt Rock 🤣🤣🤣
If you juice equal parts romaine lettuce and carrots it taste exactly like chocolate milk somehow. If anyone wants to try it. 🥕🥬🥕🥬
🤔
Eww
Mr. Dennis has a point- he was probably asking for weight measurements conversions, because volume is not as quantifiable, ex.: a cup of kale does not weigh the same as a cup of water, or bean sprouts, so it might be a better bet to use weights, either ounces/pounds or grams, when listing food items 😊
My parents juice celery because their nutritionist said it will make them constipated if they don't... they drink it every day...
I don't juice it, I blend it but after a week I stopped drinking it because of stomach discomfort... has anyone have a similar problem?
Yeah Dennis
How about blended raw spinach and consuming the fiber? According to your formula, a cup of raw spinach has a net carb of .3 grams, less than half a gram. Would that break a fast?
I still lose pounds slower but it ok I believe I fallow you almost 3 months ago and I appreciate everything you did for everyone, I really didn’t put sugar at All in anything the my food I do eat flour and probably this the only carb y get in my food and my real food at 3 pm and 6 pm no to much food I can’t my body didn’t accept a take enough protein and grease,I don’t eat nothing until 1:45 or to only juice and coffee if I need
I'm sorry doctor berg but most countries in the world are not used to cups . Not only a matter of Europe. Africa too.
For me personally, I think juicing in general is not a good idea. Huge influx of sugar, phytates, lectins, oxalates, solicylates, tannins
Dr Berg.. how do I know if I have completely fixed insulin resistance?
You can check your HOMA-IR in a lab, if your physician prescribes it. Mine didn't...
So far I’ve been afraid to do juicing since I started. Have a freezer full of beautiful mangoes and veggies
Barbara Booth I'm on day 6. Juice only cleanse. Lost 10 lbs. Going 30 days. I highly suggest it.
@@TheMancYank Which vegetables you suggest for juicing? Thank you
⚠️HOW MUCH INOSITOL per day? Especially if the person is already taking *Metformin*
Very interesting Doc. Good info. Not confusing at all ! Thanks for this, I stopped juicing since keto.
Dr. Berg, appreciate the content as always. Ive been working out 5 days a week for 5, 6 years now. I’m used to taking pre-workout before going to the gym. Would that completely ruin my intermediate fasting? I take C4 now
Is there a point for me to fast if I’m happy with my weight? What other benefits would fasting give me other than weight loss?
He has loads of videos regarding the multitude of benefits fasting brings far beyond weight loss.
Thank you Dr Berg , you have really changed my life .
minus is not a verb :) still waiting for an explanation of how growth hormone goes up making less IGF - 1 during fasting, you still have my attention though
Well you can't deduct the fibre carbs if they are not there but they can't be counted if the fibre has been remove, found it a bit confusing in the video
i do 1 cup of Parsley and peppermint juice

Um isn't it the fact that you are getting the net carbs from juice because the portion of the carbs that is fiber carbs is being removed during the juicing process causing you to not consume all the gross carbs as the fiber carbs are removed
I’ve been fasting since June along with whole vegetable juicing..... so I’m getting all the fiber from the veggies. I drink my veggie smoothie during my one meal. I’m down 25 pounds. I also walk daily. I’m not doing keto, but I’ve lowered my carbs dramatically. So far, I’m very happy with my results. 40 pounds to go!
Doc, the pyloric sphincter, or valve will open up to quickly spiking insulin. You want to chew your food instead of juicing it. 👍👏
I'm very uneducated on "sugar-alcohol". I've heard it's not good, esp for keto...
