Dr can u pls discuss about food bioavailability? thanks
Hey Doc doesn't over eating have to do with chemical in balance or loss of a mineral/s in the body ?
Fried and cooked food is all Glucose and starch. Sugar that doesn't taste like sugar.
And that is two of three problems to ALL healthissues.
I changed things, and I am healing serious stuff, fast. I will be completely healed.
can you show your sources for the percentage of absorption for proteins ty
Super valuable work, Thanks Doctor!
Dr Fung hit the nail on the head when he repeated what has been known for thousands of years and that is fast, don’t eat anything for a period every day, at least 12 hours and extended fasts weekly. I did this and it works and is the road to health.
And eating a ketogenic diet between fasting is what dr fung promotes too.. So does dr sten..
And so does Dr Eric Berg too. :)
Makes sense really if people thought at all and had any understanding
@@TL-ch1xd agree..
yes..
Fasting is best tool to make human healthy... 8 hours eating and 16 hours fast
I'm off of Metformin because of Dr. Ekburg's teaching. I lost 70lbs and a goal of loosing 30 more to get to my ideal weight. I'm 53 and although I love sweets, nothing tastes as good as feeling healthy and well! 🎉❤❤
I’m taking berberine. So far so good!
I hear berberine is great for T2D. Same with Magnesium Citrate, and of course, Gymnema Sylvestre!
That‘s wonderful that you don’t need it anymore. I usually prescribe it for prediabetes, too because it’s very good for you for so many reasons, preventing almost every complications in the book a bad metabolism causes.
Is there an award we can nominate this outstanding Doctor for? Two words
life changing!
Thank you so much Doc!! I followed your guideline in your videos and lost 33 pounds (207 to 174 lbs?) from dec. 27th to today. I am 57 and have now a muscular and fit body of 30 years old. My wifelost20lbsand is superfittoo. We also exerciced 5 days a week at home and walked 1 hour every satirday and sunday. No more sugar which is clearly a drug!!! No flour, bread, pasta also. You can do it!! Take all care of your life. You only have one. Gaétan from Montréal. Merci docteur!!!
Bonjour mon amis! Hello from edmonton! 🤗
What I love about YOU. Seriously your voice and charisma gives a calming effect. Then I seem to be more open to the knowledge you are giving me. Genius/ Love this guy. Oh I have lost my belly fat since watching, about 30 pounds in 6 months. Keto
I had no intention of watching this entire video but I got hooked and watched till the very end. Very interesting and informative.
I had never understood aminoacids so well until this. I'm a vegetarian drinking pea protein and now I'm going to go for whole eggs
Hi Doc, I’ve learned so much from you, and I want to thank you for all the knowledge and work you do on all these videos. I’m having tremendous success following your advice. I had triple bypass last year, and since then I lost 25 pounds, lowered blood pressure, eliminated symptoms of sleep apnea, sleep great now, have a super healthy diet, dropped the meds after 30 days after the surgery, exercise vigorously (muscle and cardio) every day, and I’m at my best mentally, emotionally, psychologically, and spiritually. Thank you for helping to make all this happen. My own doctors never suggested any of these regimens that have made me healthy. Instead, they wanted me to stay on meds. How is it that the vast majority of medical doctors are so adverse to this healthy approach, and how is it they are so stubborn and refuse to acknowledge the truths you teach?
Sadly, it's because the medical schools are all funded by the pharmaceutical companies, so it's all the doctors are taught in school, they have to learn natural health remedies on their own, and they don't get any kickbacks for prescribing them.
God bless doctors! Everyone is tempted by “the easy fix”, especially us patients right? The long way is to build relationship, with others, with yourself. And the key to success with that is the godly way with ❤
Cancers may have been cured many years ago if the Pharmaceutical companies weren't after the profits made on meds!
@@hugoapresname I would offer that not "everyone" wants an easy fix but rather to be healed. Some of us want to understand what is happening in our bodies so we can help ourselves. Information enables us to do so. More power to those who make the science understandable to the average person so they can play an active role in their own health management.
Very simple answer, they will lose income😊
At First I was afraid because of the length of the Videos but this dr is the real deal breaking things down simple enough for anyone to understand.
Thank you ixplain. That's because ixplain too.😄
@@drekberg 😂
@@drekberg😂😂
And that's OK. Be afraid but go forth! You won't lose any thing but the WILL if you don't.
I love the fact that one can slow down and speed up YT-videos; I usually find it easier to take in information when a person talks rather fast.
Those people on zero carb diets that still have high blood sugar are also called Post Menopausal women. My body will make fat from a grocery list.😂
Add Fasting
😂😂😂😂😂 you right😳
Mine too 🤣🤣🤣
Ah haha.
I just started menapause a month or two ago.
I hear ya sister!
I think this is one of the most comprehensive videos I've ever seen. I new nothing about the way you explained protein utilization. Great job pal, keep on educating us all. Thank you.
Thanks, went carnivore for few months hoping to lower blood sugars and was confused because I had cut out all carbs but was still getting unwanted blood glucose readings. Helpful to know which proteins are lower at converting to glucose. And thanks for breaking-down the egg. Appreciate your work.
if no carbs can still spike your blood you might as well have them, beep beep, beep beep.
I really enjoy listening to the doc here, he's so informative I almost feel like he's on my medical team. By the way he's got some of the best pronunciation, sentence formatting and inflection on TH-cam as far as speakers go. Not a problem to listen on 1.5X all the time.
Thanks doc
I'm glad I found your channel. You are changing the game as far as nutrition goes, mainly due to your ability to break down this into easy to understand language. I'll keep watching.
Dr. Sten, I have gained a plethora of knowledge of how the human body works. It is much easier to accept the information from a presenter, ( yourself) whom is FIT .. your videos are well Lit, you speak incredibly clear, and you explain in such detail what your topics cover. I have followed this information and since watching my first video, 1 July I have lost 9 pounds.
I am impressed beyond words. This is the material that should be taught in school with parents and students.
I have eaten my own body weight in Sweets. Perhaps double this or triple in 64 years .
I never , knew not even 1/4 of what I have learned here. I had a knee injury many years ago by bumping my knee into a trailer hitch. That pain haunted me . Now I find the pain has stopped completely. I am down almost a full pant size.
So well done here. I have replaced many TV shows and Movies with your videos..
Stay safe and thank you !!
Wow Dr Ekberg! Such an eye opener and you got me hooked the whole time! I had no idea proteins aren’t equal. You have just answered as to why I’ve been gaining back some pounds and also convinced that food variety in our diet is important. Thank you for your continued health education! Your channel is definitely underrated!
Fantastic explanation as always. Thanks, doc! 👍
Thank you Doctor ER. I appreciate it. 😄
Cheers Sten keep up the remarkable value you give
How clear you're explaining what we exactly need Dr. Ekberg👏🏻Thanks millions...
Your videos are impressive and so informative. I wish people would comprehend this and use it for good. I’m a doctor and I find your videos a great source for my patients. Congratulations Dr. Ekberg.
I like how Dr Sten explains the details, which I find lacking with others who tend to gloss over. Please keep up the good work Dr.
I've been on keto for about 2 months but my glucose has at times spikes. This morning I wake up to this amazing video. Thank you from bottom of my heart. I am trying to repair my body and get my health back
Keto spikes my sugars bad
Me too
@@jencaso5729 me too
If your body is utilizing ketones, glucose doesn’t get used up as much. So when you measure blood sugar, it’ll be higher. This is why measuring glucose and/or ketones is recommended because it gives you a more accurate picture based on energy usage.
@@jencaso5729 how high do you spike?
You deserve nobel prize, thankYou doc.
Thank you francesco pisanu. I appreciate that very much. Even if I deserved it, I think the world is a little too medically oriented for that to happen any time soon. The peace prize maybe...😄
@@drekberg No, no... the Health prize. It does not exist yet, nevertheless the most important.
Dr Ekberg, my children have told me so often to eat my whole eggs, but ,recently was buying egg whites , thinking I'm lowering cholesterol. You proved them so right. You have really taken the time, to explain the things we need to know. May you be blessed continually as you seek to enrich our lives.
Egg cholesterol is dietary, it is not assimilated by the body, it will not increase or reduce your blood cholesterol levels, since it is produced exclusively by the liver, although if you consume several eggs a day, you make the liver not It produces so much gold, therefore, there may be a reduction in the CL, but it will never increase it, you lose all the essential nutrients when consuming it without the yolk, and all the kitos regarding the egg have been denied.
Así sea . Que hermosa frase finalizando tu mensaje 🙏🏻🔆
I love it how informative and gentle you are as a Guru (teacher). Iam trying to works towards a fit body by following the lessons imparted by you🙏🏻
You bring holistic medicine to a new level. Thank you so much for helping me understand how my body really works.
Thank you Erich Hartmann. I really appreciate your feedback and so glad that you liked it. The purpose of my channel is to explain things better than other channels and help people understand the principles. I spend so much time on it because when we get "the why" and the mechanism we become empowered for life . Comments like yours makes it all worthwhile. 😄
@@drekberg can you help me? I have been LCHF for years. I had a stroke 2 years ago. Though my A1c is greatly improved my glucose in the mornings is still around 175.
Keep yourself close to these videos. They are the real thing. Know this information cold.
Thank you for the info, but what i really need to know.. when it is “ too high protein” ?
Amazing info again, but how can i use this in real life ??
@@Kirsheh Good question.
Sten, I've been watching your videos for over a year. What you say just makes sense. Incredible. Thank you
Thank you! As one of those people who can’t remember the last time they had sugar or simple carbs and yet has a fasting glucose level anywhere from 95 to 110, this made so much sense to me. I’m going to keep the eggs in my diet and try really hard to include more of the protein that is utilized by my body.
Wish there are more doctors out there like HIM. His videos are very informative, easy to follow. Greatly appreciated 🙏.
This is the video I've been searching for! My ketones are fine (often between 2.0 - 4.9), I've been in ketosis for months, but my glucose hasn't come down. I always learn so much from you!
Maybe you will help me cause I don't understand everything. It seems let's just say (my fake ratio) from every 2 grams of protein I get 1 gram or more of free carbs. So to get 50 grams of clear protein I have to eat 100 grams of protein. It sucks. Even if I don't want have any glucose in my blood after food I eat I just... CAN' T. Right? And yeah shouldn't this amount of glucose kick me from ketosis?
P. S
Sorry for my english.
You are more direct and give more details than a certain known Chiropractor.
You are the best teacher ever. That was one of my questions for long time.
Thank you so much.
As Asian, we eat a lot of white rice and sugar palm. Just reduce sugar and rice and add more fish, egg in meal, i lost 10kg in 2 months. I change my bad habit by walk a bit after meal instead of seat with pc and phone in hand
Friday is my favorite day of the week because there’s a new video from Dr. Ekberg. Absolutely love the detailed information on the biochemistry. It would be great to see all this large body of information available as an online course of study in dietary nutrition. We could use a revolution like this. Any possibilities?
I agree so generous of Dr Ekberg I believe he really cares for people! what a rare find!
I see Dr. Ekberg’s channel as the best online course in nutrition. Easy to understand and apply. The result is our health- PRICELESS 🙂
Thank you HarvardBob. There will be some courses in the (near) future. 😄
@@drekberg Looking forward to your courses Dr!
@@drekberg i have learned so much from watching your youtube videos. thank you so much for teaching me. my friends are constantly asking me questions about health & i send them one of your videos.
Thanks for showing us the way, keeping us focused and allowing us to achieve our goals!
Thank you Mark Dalton. I really appreciate your feedback. 😄
Very Nicely Illustrated, Thank you so much Dr. Sten❤
Wow.
Mind = 🤯👍
It really pays to dig deeper into this topic rather than just accept everything your average "expert" parrots on so many other yt channels or wherever. This is incredible. There is so much to learn about this.
Thank you, this is highly appreciated!
THANK YOU! You answered the question I’ve been asking myself for the past year. I’ve been clean Keto/Carnivore.
My A1C a 18 mos ago was 5.9. One year ago 5.8. 6 months ago 5.6 with Insulin @ 1. I’m going to change the types of protein I’m eating and going to lower the amount of protein to hopefully reach an A1C of 5 or below.
Fantastic. I will have to listen to this several times. It's important to know. Thank you.
Dr Ekberg is the best of the best wellness advocates and educators! Every presentation is well researched and validated, well prepared and presented in ways that are informative, practical and useful.
I love Dr. Sten Ekberg's videos because what he presented are sooooooooo true....
He is absolutely one of the greatest human beings in our time.
We probably will not have a healthcare crisis and the world will become a better place if more people listen to his presentations.
This particular video is one of his best....you would never find this info from anywhere else........He presented complex content so clearly.
Thank you Dr. Sten Ekberg!!!
I love your presentations! This video makes me want to study the insulin index and how it applies to my diet. Thank you for bringing it to my attention.
Hi Dr Ekberg, I'm new to your channel and I just wanted to tell you how much I appreciate the information your provide and your presentation makes it easy to understand. Thank you! I will be watching many more.
This is all SO confusing, i thought getting rid of carbs and going carnivore was going to be enough... Now I dont know what amounts, or what to eat any more 😫
Me too. Zero carbs, strictly. And my HbA1c and blood sugar levels go up and up. No weight loss. I’m pulling my hair out in frustration and I’m really scared about what I’m doing to my cardiovascular system with high blood sugar on a high fat diet.
So much contradictory information it seems. Totally confused now.
Trial and Error… everyone is different. Just have to find what works for you! I found Keto/LoCarb is what works for me. Tried Low Fat, Mediterranean, and many others… same Keto doesn’t work for my wife, she does better on Mediterranean.
Eating just protein and fats won’t produce HIGH blood glucose. The body will make glucose to maintain a normal baseline level. Eating protein will increase insulin a little to get amino acids into cells. Eating protein also increases glucagon which keeps blood glucose at normal baseline.
@@Cnick1891 How do you know when something works for you? Unless you have daily blood tests how do you know how your blood sugar, insulin & ketone levels are responding. Any phisical harm caused by insulin resistance can takes decades to present itself so blood tests seem to be vital to know what works.
This is me!!! I am diabetic and nuts and beans raise my blood sugar! I cut all nuts & beans out of my diet. My blood glucose is much more stable. Today I went for my morning walk and I stayed out too long. My vision started getting wiggles on my peripheral vision. I knew my blood sugar was way too low. I got home and checked my blood glucose and it was at 100 😬 I instantly ate a food I normally can’t eat because my blood sugar goes to high and ate it with celery to balance out the sugars. 20 minutes later I was much better. Had I not been home I would have taken my glucose tablets I carry with me in case this happens where I don’t have access to food. It’s so important to track YOUR blood sugar and YOUR symptoms and know how all foods affect YOUR blood sugar. Remember blood sugar and food symptoms is a bell curve. Foods don’t always affect everyone the same!!!! You need to learn how foods affect YOU!!! Keep a food and blood sugar diary so you have concrete data about your interactions with foods. You are worthy of being your best and being healthy. But no one can do it for you! Live your life like you are the most important person in your life. Your family and friends will thank you for it ❤they love you and want what’s best for you 🤗
100 is no where near low.
beans are pure carbs. not sure why you'd think they would lower your numbers. nuts should be ok in very small quantities but i stay away. no more than a handful. if my glucose is 100, i will never lose weight. it's too high. it has to be under, and consistent. my meals are basic. breakfast is eggs with spinach or green peppers and for lunch and dinner it's spinach and cucumber and kale with boiled or baked meat.
You have the unique ability to translate the mechanisms of the human body into understandable concepts. A rarity. Thank you, you’ve helped me so much
Hello Docteur it has been half a month that I ‘m watching tour videos. Your explanations are always clear like crystal and easy to understand without complicated words and a perfect English prononciation that I can capture the meaning of the words as I am a French speaker. the substance either the form are awesome in your presentations. You deserve a great esteem and recognition from all people on this earth. Thank you so much.
Best regards
Your channel has become one new favourite to listen and follow. Your explanations are straight, clear and informative. Keep up the wonderful work! Cheers from Sweden!
I really enjoy your simple explanations. You are by far one of the best teachers TH-cam has.
This was so informative, and as usual, a complicated subject delivered in a practical and easy format so us mere mortals can understand. As for someone on a low carb diet who sometimes see Blood sugars sometimes at 6.2 mmol/L and sometime higher after eating a low carb meal i now fully understand where i am. Great work Dr Ekberg in helping me understand what is actually going on inside my body as i continue travel on the road to a full and healthy lifestyle
Thank you again for another really valuable video! I feel like I'm going deeper into understanding essential things about my body and how to be healthier... and, help my family and loved ones to be healthier too, I hope!
This might be one of the clearest videos I´ve ever watched in terms of nutrition and health. This is a channel to be greatly appreciated.
I’ve just come across this channel recently and the information in it is amazing I’ve already told a few people about it and they are very impressed with watching
During the last 13 months I’ve put on 22 lbs, and I some point I realised how bad I was feeling. The red flag was one day when I really needed to have something sweet, like in despair, and I found myself eating teaspoons of sugar! Then I looked for help and found these awesome videos. Thank you so much for your generosity, doc. Three days ago I started changing my diet, and yet sometimes I dream of some dessert, but if I think of actually eating it it doesn’t seem attractive already. It’s the pleasure I was missing, not the meal. So to obtain pleasure again I removed the spider webs off the treadmill. It’s a matter of breaking the vicious circle, you don’t exercise because you feel tired and heavy, and that feeling won’t go away until you exercise and eat better. In many of your videos I’ve heard about the messages you send to your brain. In addition, I think that following this good advice on a healthy diet and exercising you send your brain and your whole body that you want to LIVE. Because, how many times have we heard about people who develop a serious disease out of depression or stress?
Decide what weight you feel best at and then use fasting to achieve it over time. Good luck Maria.
@maria perez how is your journey going after 5 months? Have you lost the weight you expected? I would like you feedback on your results as I am just starting the keto diet. Thank you
@@sandrachavezmolina1135 I did, actually. Sorry to say though that precisely two weeks ago I left my hometown and not being so easy to keep keto I left it for that period. And it’s incredible, every single bad symptom was back, gained two pounds back and specially lost energy. So now I’m back in town and keto, lost those two pounds already in the last week and my energy and well-being are back. So, go for it, it’s really life saving. My best friend, whom I’m glad to say I encouraged and who used to have continuous heath issues including surgery in hew vowels twice, started one month after me, lost 16 pounds, never felt better and since then only went to the doctor to say hi.
@@mariaperez7295 congratulations! Keep up the good job then and many thanks for the feedback!!
I've had days like that where you just NEED sugar. I would eat candy that I didn't even particularly like just to have something sweet.
This was really interesting. I've had plant protein for a while now, but I'll be sticking to eggs once I run out of it. Thanks for this.
Thank you soooo much! I had been doing a carnivore diet strictly last summer and had an A1C come back at 5.7 and freaked out! Had been struggling to find content out there to understand it. My doctor had no idea; now I suspect overeating for my needs and not enough fat! Thank you for your amaaaaazing videos! You are a blessing to so many 😁
Did you figure it out? I cut sugars and carbs drastically, lots of fasting and my A1c went up from 5.5 to5.7. I'm baffled
Mine went for 4.9 to 5.7
On carnivore
No more for me!!!
Brilliant! So detailed, I learned many new things Really appreciate your work here, DrEkberg ☀️
Exactly a ton of info I was wondering about. Thank you!
Thais is my favorite nutrition video ever. Never learned so much so quickly.
Dr. Ekberg, please never stop educating us!! You're the other reason I'm so thankful to Sweden ....aside from Ikea!..:-)
Amazing as always. What I thoroughly enjoy about your videos is the information without any fluff. It’s not boring but super digestible and easy to incorporate. You don’t need to flex muscles or show abs to demonstrate knowledge or get followers. You present the truth. You present the science. You illustrate the numbers. You’re also quite comical and I can appreciate the dry humor😉. Keep it up Dr. Ekberg!
Thank You Denita Richardson. I appreciate that very much. I'm glad I can attract followers without showing a six pack, because while that's not a bad thing, I don't think that is were credibility should come from. I don't even know more than a lot of other people, but I know many different areas, and I am passionate about tying together different concepts to the point where it makes a difference in people's ability to put it to good use and make a difference in their lives. 😄
be very careful everytime you think you found the truth
Without pitching a product!!
@@randyhenry2477 It's a lot of work though, so I don't mind people getting some compensation. Plus you don't Have to buy a product.
Are there complimentary foods that can help best utilize the protein? A food combination chart would be really helpful.
That you for being a catalyst for change in the health of many people. I am grateful.
Top video Dr Ekberg! Thank you! I would suggest you possibly reformulate the title because of the importance of the topic (protein usage and tissue regeneration) while superficially, from the title of the video alone, it would sound less important. This is a top contribution to the general public and deserves more views: I have forwarded it to all my friends. Keep up the great work!
This is one of your best videos to date.
I’ve come away with a lot of useful information.
Knowledge is power. Thank you Dr Ekberg 🙏

🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation:
00:00 🩸 High blood sugar can occur even with a zero-carb diet due to gluconeogenesis.
01:18 🍞 The glycemic index is limited in usefulness as it primarily focuses on high-glycemic carbohydrates, ignoring other factors.
03:01 💡 Protein can impact blood sugar and insulin levels, with different types of proteins affecting the body differently.
06:32 💪 Insulin plays a role in storing both glucose and amino acids as fat and muscle tissues, respectively.
16:04 🥚 Whole eggs have higher protein utilization compared to just egg whites due to the presence of essential amino acids, impacting insulin response.

Dr. Sten Ekberg: you are the most patient, instructive, knowledgeable teacher I have ever known!! THANK YOU FOR YOUR HUGE CONTRIBUTIONS TO OUR UNDERSTANDING OF HOW OUR BODIES WORK.
This is such an incredible video. I thought I was going crazy having trouble controlling my BG and being so very careful with my food. One of the most important things I have learned is exercise is medicine hand in hand with the food I eat. My husband, who is a biochemist also loves your videos!❤❤❤❤
Hi, Dr Sten Ekberg, can you do a video on migraines? How food we eat affect them; what to do to reduce them? Thanks! This video is great as always!
look into histamine intolerance. A friend disabled by constant migraines is healing amazingly quickly now that she has weaned off all foods except freshly cooked organic beef exclusively. God bless ❤🙏❤
Dr. Ekberg, thank you for another fantastic health topic. Day by day, your altruism combined with your passion and dedication towards true healthcare and sharing your invaluable knowledge is a gift to us all. As a nurse, you're the best teacher I've had ❤
Thank you Claire Hachey. I really appreciate your feedback. That means a lot coming from a health professional like you.😄
Me too!
i am honestly struggling with nutrition the informations are super confusing doctors advice to eat certain foods and then they warn you not to do so . 😢
Eat real food. If it comes from a package it's likely over processed. Eat meat, vegetables, fruit and nuts. Minimally eat sugar, bread, soda, potatoes, rice, pasta. Stop snacking unless you absolutely need to. Eat two meals a day. Fast 12-16 hrs. Do some kind of exercise 20 min a day-swim, walk, rebound, weight training, skating, yard work
Hesitated viewing this video because it is 2 years old. Just happens that is one of the most illuminating I have ever encountered on my journey to good health. Thank you Dr. Ekberg for your work. Happy new year. May God bless you and your loved ones.
GOD BLESS YOU FOR KEEPING US INFORMED ON HEALTH ISSUES .YOU ARE GREATLY APPRECIATED DOCTOR🙏🌹👏🏻

WOW All of your vids are excellent but this one belongs in the Hall of Fame.
Just this video alone has a tremendous amount of information. I rewatch it. Thank You Dr. Ekbergs.
This isn't just holistic, it's common sense and is the natural direction our bodies want to go. Great job!
Maybe holistic is common sense after all ;)
Hi Dr. Ekberg, I really like this kind of video because you tell us something that's not obvious but nonetheless affects our everyday lives. I especially liked your breakdown of essential amino acids, its relation to protein, and how not all essential amino acids are created equal. Very creative, easy-to-understand, and information for a video; glad I subscribed.
Had to watch this several
Times to get it, but wow what a great video, excellent info, thank you.
Two years of watching you Doc.Berry,Thomas Dylouir probably missed that spelling.Strictly keto for three months,as close to zero carbs as I could get.I was 261now Iam 170 .I’ll never leave keto I love it.thanks for helping save my life....
Thank you Doctor Berg! Because of you understand what I was doing wrong. The body is a wonderful machine and it’s very important to know how it works. Specially as it ages. I love your channel!
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us!
Normally I come away with a pretty good understanding but for some reason this video definitely confused me…but looks like I’m not alone ..so I don’t feel so bad🤷♀️😮
I feel the same way. I love his videos but I got lost in details.
Just fantastic !Very clear and useful for me.thank You !
We all have to become Dr. Ekberg to understand our food consumption. God help us. Thank you doc for all your videos, very helpful!
Brilliant video, so much hard work put into the content. Thank you so much Dr Ekberg, very grateful for it and appreciated more than words can say
Thanks for such great information ! I was going to go to the store to buy some plant protein but I’m going to just continue to eat my pastured raised and fed eggs, wild salmon and sardines..
I got blown away with this information, priceless info, I can rate this video in top 10 videos to watch before we die.
Your explanations are truly splendid. Thank you again!
Absolutely amazing!!! I had no idea previously about percentages of protein utilization nor was I aware of how amino acides will be turned into glucose if you don't have all of them. Wow. I see why protein peptides and an amino acid profile would be of major importance and use.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS INFORMATION !!-
Fantastic information. Illuminating. You (Dr, Ekberg) are a blessing to us who listen/watch.
This is the best explanation about Amino acids that I have come across.
You explained it better than any professor I know. Much appreciated.
Everything you discussed in your videos are so very informative. This gives me an ideas on how to live a healthy lifesytle. Thanks for sharing your knowledge to us.. Have a great day Doc!
Thank you very much Dr Ekberg for a truck load of useful information about how our body really works.
