Hello Dr Berry, please help. I'm 44 yr old woman. Diabetes runs like wildfire in my family. I tried keto for 3 weeks. I didn't lose weight. My carbs were under 20. I'm type 2 diabetic. I still needed insulin while on it. I got off keto, because I felt like it wasn't helping my glucose levels plus I didn't lose any weight at all. I don't understand?? How long could it take if it does work? I'm currently just on a low carb diet under 50 carbs a day. No white any foods. Also, do you believe in Intermittent fasting? My endocrinologist says its probably not good to do, it would cause my liver to release more sugar. Plus my thyroid is elevated and I'm afraid to take synthroid, I heard it causes weight gain and has other bad side effects. What else can I take for my thyroid issue (currently its 4.267) Its up and down from just over 4 to 7. I'm currently taking Lantus at night. I feel like cheese causes inflammation and maybe that was not helping me lose weight. If I go back on Keto, can I take protein powder to achieve the daily macros in the protein area? I appreciate your time.
@@BPb123 a lot of your questions are covered on many of Dr Berrys videos. I believe he would suggest carnivore, no protein powder. Avoid cheese since you question its inflamation effects on your health and please dont stop keto, ketovor or carnivore diet. It will take time. I am not speaking for Dr Berry, only, I have been studying all his videos and many other Drs who back up what Dr. Berry says. Please look up his other videos. My husband and I have some simular situations you have with tons of sucess on the carnivore and ketovor diet. Please be patient and take your carbs as close to zero as you can. I pray you are blessed with improved health with your efforts.
We also fast and intermittent fast. Please make sure you incorporate this into your daily routine.
I recently had a MI. I am packed w/plaque, lets and heart too. is it really safe for me?
A R, I have been doing keto since July of 2021. If you have diabetes, like I had, you need to do real keto. I was diagnosed with non alcoholic fatty liver, besides the diabetes. I stayed as close to 0 carbs as possible. I was 234 lbs now 181, I lost 4 inches around my waist, no longer take 6 meds twice a day, only 2. My A1C is perfect no more diabetes and my liver shows no fibrosis and no scars. You cannot see results in 3 weeks, and you cannot do it alone. I have a support group that helps me along the way.
Our cardiologist told us that he had only one tool in his toolbox - statins - and keto would kill us. We fired that doctor. He admitted he was a T2D himself and also on a statin and when we complained we had side effects from the statin, he said we need to suffer if we want to live. And doctors wonder why we go to Dr. TH-cam...
Well said 👍🏼
I am a physician of 36 years doing Keto now. I no longer take B/P Rx and my blood sugar level is near normal now. I wish I had done this 36 years ago. I have always been a physician telling my patients to cut sugars and starch, stop reducing salt intake. Many of my patients lived to 100.
Thank you for your input doctor.
I am trying to do low carb diet because i want to have a healthy life but part of me is always afraid that it may be clogging my arteries , thank you.
i have a stent they say i have heart disease is keto ok for me, i still get aches in my left pec.
Nina,thats always been my biggest fear, theres so much controversy, this video should clear this up!🙂
You work in Florida then?
Thank you! Cardiac RN here who applauds you Dr Ken Berry ~ this video was NEEDED! I’ve lost 155 lbs on KETO and have been in maintenance for years! Revamped my health with keto~ put my autoimmune Evans syndrome and RA in remission ~ Mayo put me on a plan that was basically KETO back in 2010…way before keto was popular. I’ve been on this eleven years and I’m 60 years old and feel better now than when I was thirty! KETO WORKS! Labs are great every year too!
Thank you for sharing.. that's encouraging.
Cool. Good to know it's not too late for me. And very glad for your health.
What a great show. I do keto but Ill be honest and say I have to have some chocolate during the week. It isnt much but once a week gets my fix. ive lost 120 lbs. 70 more to go.
Wow!! Congratulations!! 😁🤙👍
That's incredible. Kudos!
Hotel Chocolat is the best 100% dark choc buttons...although 90% dark Lindt is OK.
63Sonotech/US Traveler have you considered melting your own sugar free cocoa bars (Baker’s chocolate or Ghardelli) and adding monk fruit and chopped walnuts to get your chocolate fix? Great job on your weight loss success!!
Any good quality chocolate is actually healthy but the cacao content has to be at 70% or above Ghirardelli makes plain chocolate bars with the cacao content listed at the bottom of the package. Chocolate has a chemical compound that works in conjunction with a woman's hormones.
Keto has done wonders for me. I just had an angiogram because they found a small ischemia on recent tests and had to see a cardiologist, who was sure I was in big trouble based on my history of diabetes and high cholesterol. But I went on keto 2 1/2 months before the angiogram and got rid of the diabetes, and my blood pressure quickly went down to ideal, about 115/72. Also, before keto I could barely walk for two minutes and was gasping for breath; now I can easily walk for 20+ minutes. Then I had the angiogram and the doctor found my main arteries were "surprisingly open" and found a 30% blockage on a couple of small veins. So, he said no treatment was needed except to keep doing what I was doing with my lifestyle. Now, I know that keto made a huge difference to my heart because, aside from the changes I mentioned, right before I started keto I had extremely alarming symptoms of chest pain and my heart started was skipping beats constantly, all day long. I was scared shitless. Now all that has gone away. The doctor attributed my good results to good genes, but I think it was mostly keto.
So many people love to attribute someone's health results to "genetics", good or bad. Genes are important but if there was a sudden change in health, it was probably the lifestyle!
Great!!!
It is surprising how a Cardiologist will say just keep doing what you are doing. I believe that is because the standard of care does not include eating fatty red meat, lots of salt, and low carbs.
How old are you out of curiosity?
I am a 73 old America. I’ve lived in Thailand for 13 years. I’ve been skinny all my life but at 68 I got arthritis in my wrists, inflammation in my knees. These two problems stopped me from running and exercising. I gained an extra 20k. I started watching Dr. Berry and other Keto advocates on TH-cam. I thought give it a try what can it hurt. After three months my arthritis and my knee problem went away. By this time, I was OMAD carnivore. I knew I was in ketosis because my breath smelled like gasoline and I was mentally more alert. The urine strips showed very little so I did a 4-day distilled water with Himalayan salt fast and then went to the local hospital for a blood test. For 300 Thai baht or $10 I had my blood checked for ketone and sugar. My Glucose (FTP) was 78 and my Blood Ketone was 5.3. The doctor said that it was 10 time the normal level. It’s now over one year that I have been on keto/carnivore diet and I am going to go back to the hospital for a comprehensive blood analysis. What I am trying to say is if you are unhealthy for whatever reason don’t listen to the naysayers get the proof yourself by trying the Keto diet for 3 months and if you feel better continue. If you fall off the wagon and have a Big Mac and fries don’t think all is lost just get back on the diet and stick with it.
Forwarded to my Cardiologist brother in law and nurse sister. They are always negative towards my keto diet. Thank you both!! 🇬🇧
How did they respond?
I’m a retired nurse & I’ve been following keto off & on for about 5 years (I cheat on some family occasions😊) I have been trying to encourage my siblings to try keto to help their health problems…all negative replies after they consulted their doctors who continue to say low fat! 🤷♀️
totally agree with dr. Berry stop eating SHIT! if you want to look and feel your very best!! love you dr.! thank you both!
im going to miss REAL pizza :(((
Doing Keto since some months, I not only got rid of over 60lbs, also stopped almost all of my medication I took for about 12years. No longer diabetes2, hbp, infections usually treated with antibiotics (8 times in 2019!), prostate smaller, very good sleep, blood markers almost perfect.... thanks to you Dr Berry and others! 👍🌸
Love this interview guys. “Stop eating shit” was the best line. Amazing what some people eat these days such as high sugar cereals
I agree. I almost fell out of my chair when I heard him say that. In fact, I did a double-take on that one because I wasn't expecting him to say that. I guess you could call this a "hard truth."
All breakfast cereals are the devil
I have a seizure disorder, celiacs, and idiopathic subglottic stenosis and the keto diet is the only thing I have found that helps with them all.
Gena I use to be the V Pres. of the Atlanta Epileptic Assoc. it is great for you.
I also have ISS, in fact, I just had my 12th dilation on 2/19/21. I’ve never seen anyone else, outside of the FB groups that mentions this particular disease.
@@UserHunca I know. It would nice to have people close to share the frustrations of this disease. Nobody ever understands you just can’t take a pill or use an inhaler.
@@genaharris6618 well I'm an RN and have never heard it. I'm researching it right now. Here's one for someone else-- I have hypermobile Ehler's Danlos Syndrome, considered rare but not so rare! It is so misunderstood.. I can tell you that one of the best things the ketogenic diet brought me was not having to shop, cook or eat as often! I think everyone could but especially having severe disability!! Well and the massive brain benefits, actually having some energy, joints not dislocating as much, no need for skin creams, really good hormone balance, low cravings, saves so much money! I wish I knew of it sooner!! :) I would like to welcome you (or who will read this!) to my "Keto for Chronic Disease Management" group on FB. I try to share evidence based information, discussion on addiction and relationship with food and general support. Take care out there!
@@dana102083 my best friend has been recently diagnosed with that. Trying to learn how to help her.
These guys are almost family to me, never met them.
We are all God's children. Therefore, we're all family ;)
Why is it taking so long for mainstream medicine to embrace this new way (Keto) of eating?
because the mainstream med is bought and paid for by big pharma, big ag, and big industry including sugar... just to begin with.
aka they make money if your sick and more money if you stay sick
How we gonna make money when you stop buying our drugs? They don't want you dead, they don't want you cured. They want you just well enough to keep buying their drugs.
Karen another big reason is that the key element of the entire health care system , the Physicians can't think outside the box. just like Dr Berry was saying, most of them just " parrot what they have memorized". or unwilling or incapable of questioning or second guessing what they have learned in medical school. We over estimate our physicians. "They just don't know" . As simple as that .
@@Tsuboman1 Absolutely!! And, far too few are actually bright. If my doctor doesn't impress me, he's my ex-doctor FAST.
I’vebeen keto for 1year, lost 55#, a1c down to 5.1. Recently had to stop going to cardiologist. They refused to change my meds. I had severe dizziness in November and dr. Would not even consider changing rx. I know it’s not recommended, but I quit taking it. Current bp without rx is averaging 116/68. I’m 67 and I feel better than I have in years. I find myself craving my old comfort foods, [pizza] and it helps to just take a day or two of increased calories. My a-fib has stopped also. Had a recent surgery and the dr. Was fine with my blood pressure.
What natural supplements was you taking to cure heart palpitations?
Right at this very moment, my husband is having a cardiac cath. I'm definitely watching this to see how to get him better. Maybe this is the answer.
How did it go ?
He must do the keto. I am a physician of 36 years and I know.
Y husband have heart failure and I am do keto 7 mont , I won’t him do keto with me , not sure where to start
@@lyudmylaw8736, if you phase out all the non-keto foods, you are doing the cooking and making the snacks......perhaps he just accompanies you to keto by default. It’s the best for him. Carbs carry water with them and he doesn’t need extra fluid retention. Good luck.
Green tea and cacao powder along with keto for 5 months, was 315lbs and now 255 at 6'1'',and 59 yrs, I feel 20yrs younger than I am.
The FDA’s food pyramid is a bunch of crap.
Not in the government's interest for people to live long lives, it suits the government for people to die quickly and soon after they reach retirement age so giving false dietary advice is a depopulation tool used to depopulate and eliminate older generations
Best comment on here!
So interesting! I was literally looking into this last night! Its scary the misleading information out there 😒 I jist follow what makes me feel good. I feel that my body will send me indicators if I'm doing something wrong
keto diet is good and all but i think vegetable oils are much worse than just carbs you can find in food like fruits and baked potatoes
Portland, Oregon. I’ve lost 45 pounds since January 6th. I bought loaves of net zero keto bread before lockdown. Sugar is above normal 20-25 grams but 30-70 grams per day has been okay. I’ve lost 22lbs while in quarantine with little to no exercise. I can tell that my body is trying to return to ketosis based on 2 days of headaches. I’m now 9lbs from moving from obese to overweight. As a man with controlled epilepsy, I don’t believe it’s easy to lose when on meds that slow my metabolism. If I can get to 200; Without being in the hospital for a month like in Asia. Then that will blow my mind. Cheers
I've been fighting as a cardiology nurse for a while now dealing with nurses and docs who are constantly promoting low fat, moderate carb diets and telling me that keto will clog your arteries bc..fat. funny how it doesnt seem to work well for my patients most of the time. They will overeat carbs and still have clogged arteries
AshPooh1319 I’m wanting to do keto cus I need to lose weight and have seborrheic dermatitis and psoriasis but still the same time so much confusion I heard a decent amount of people on keto after a few years or 8 years had strokes heart attacks etc and I’m scared
Noah Ahmed I’m on my 3rd year keto and follow the low carb community extensively and I have not heard of strokes or heart attacks from keto. Sure there will be some but are likely caused by a lifetime of bad food and lifestyle choices, not by the keto diet itself. Don’t be afraid to follow the real (newest) science.
bjhope1 ok I really just want to be healthy I just hate how diverse things are it’s so hard to keep up with what’s real anymore now a days it’s scary too much information out there I just want to lose weight reverse my seborrheic dermatitis and fatty liver and try and get a bit more confident again I’m only 21
@Noah Ahmed, something to keep in mind is that those people say they eat keto. However, they are not in any controlled study and there is no way to know how they are actually eating behind the scenes. Only eating keto SOME of the time is actually worse than eating a western low fat diet. Their body never really gets fat adapted and therefore it doesn't know how to handle the larger amounts of fat they ingest during their "KETO" days. If your body never learns how to use the fat, it will start building up. There is no such thing as "Kinda keto" or "Their version" of keto. Also, plowing through foods labeled as keto friendly like keto bread and snacks are really bad for you. The ingredients are chalked full of crappy ingredients that cause inflammation and havoc on your body. Like social media, you can't believe everything people say.
When I go off the Keto diet, I get ill. I get inflamed in my joint,s and I bloat, and just do not feel well. I cannot swear I am on a strict Keto diet, but close to it.
Same here gave it a bash for one month and people could not believe the results, I didnt follow to the T but close to it also but it worked amazing🙌👍🙏
Thx for the link to his website, Dr Berry. Ugh, $1495 for a consult? Are there any cardio docs out there like this gentleman that take insurance that I pay $800/ mo for?
Thank you Dr. Berry, I appreciate your help, I have lost 56 pounds. I feel so much better. You are helping us,
I have been keto for 2 years, keto is real. Thank you for telling the truth,
Thanks so much for the detailed information. The cardiologists in my area spend 5-10 minutes with patients because they have so many patients to see each day. To have this much available information really helps to make better decisions!
I've lost 90lbs on low carb & now on full keto after my weight loss stalled. I have had a heart attack and I have a pacemaker. People keep telling me that keto isn't healthy if you have a heart condition. I keep asking them is being 130 lbs overweight healthy?? Keto is taking off the weight and I feel great. No other diet has worked for me. My total cholesterol was 154 at last blood work. My triglycerides were under 700.
Always great content Dr. Berry. Thank you Dr. Scher. Was great hearing from someone with your credentials as it relates to heart health and keto.
Two of my favs... Dr. Scher and Dr. Berry. Awesome information, guys!
The problem is people mixing fat and carbs...THAT WILL kill you.
The Randle Cycle.
oh crap! i have been doing a lose version of keto with too much cheating. i am very lucky i read this comment. i was going to skip this video but now i have to watch it and look into what you posted...and the post below it. Dr. ken needs to do a warning video about this.
No. The problem is people eating too much of both. It's caloric overload. A little fat and carbs wont kill you, just don't over do it
@@exoticspeedefy7916 nope, you can get diabetes without getting fat / eating too much.
Stressed out. I will go and get a Big Mac.
You can thank Ancel Keys and Sen. George McGovern (D-SD) for all the BS surrounding this idea that fat is a problem.
On another note; *What is a good safe (more or less) replacement for Hydrochlorothiazide?* *It's part of my BP med. Lisinopril/HCTZ* ... Thanks
When I first went Keto I got severe heart palpitations. I kept thinking it would pass but it got worse. I watched your videos and Dr. Bergs videos and did some research after listening into B vitamin deficiency. I ended up starting myself on a multi vitamin and a methylated B vitamin complex. The palpitations stopped immediately. I have since stopped the multi vitamin but every time I stop the methylated B I will start having the heart palpitations again. I have since also found out I have the MTHFR mutation so my body doesn't absorb or methylate nutrients well. From my reading it sounds like up to 40 % of the population probably has the MTHFR mutation so I often wonder how many of these people who end up having palpation or A-fib actually are having issues from a MTHFR mutation and poor absorption issues. I was Keto for 1 year and have been Carnivore for 5 months now and feel so much better. I can't imagine ever going back to eating high carb foods. Keto and Carnivore rocK! Thank you for your videos. They have been very helpful to me.
Gina Smith I’m scared lol
Dr Stephen Phinney, an earlier pioneer and adopter of low carb/keto, says that on low carb you need more salt to avoid heart palpitations and other mild "keto-flu" symptoms. Look up youtube videos with Dr. Stephen Phinney...a great explainer.
Same problem. Been Keto 8 months and then strict carnivore for almost two years. Have MTHR polymorphism also. Salt never fixed. Then dawned on me that my resting heart rate went up since I stopped Methl B Complex when I checked Oura Ring. Correlation? Yep.
Greetings from France..similar situation with heart palpitations... Will try out methylated b... How many mg per day....... How much fat % per protein % are you eating.... Some say 80% fat and 20% protein.... Merci... Thanks peace
I ha this recently in the middle of them night , scared me to death. I believe it is lack of potassium.
Sitting through the ads is worth it, so stop your whining. 😜
Read The Clot Thickens by Dr Malcolm Kendrick, love Docs Berry & Scher!
I am no longer on my diabetic meds, also am about to go off my sea papa machine, it is getting better the more weight I loose. Thank you so much Dr. Ken Berry and Keto.
I got off all meds by going Keto!
Steve's Outdoor World I was just on a You Tube LIVE where a diabetic came off all her meds by doing keto. I’m so happy for both of you!!😁
@@militarymom6690 Yes Keto is for people that want to live a long time without pain and corrupt Doctors.
I'm on week 6 24 pounds down! Arthritis pain GONE!
@@stevesoutdoorworld4340 some are corrupt but I think most haven’t had time to keep up. They fall back on the 3 hours of nutritional education in med school. Plus they’re often in groups that get paid by pharma companies, and they’re under pressure to wear out the Rx pads.
@@MarkSmith-js2pu I know it is Sooooo SAD!
I went on a two solid week high carb binge during this c-19 debacle while working from home... my ankles turned to cankles... there was virtually NO delineation between the calf and the ankle, my toes looked like vienna sausages and the neuropathy and extremity pain almost had me going through the roof! ... it took 3 days back on my
I guess your personal experience just reinforces the meaning of the old proverb "the proof of the pudding is in the eating
", and the proverb literally uses a high-carb food to make the point that the real value of something can be judged only from practical experience or results and not from appearance or theory. I've passed my youth and just like you, my reaction to a high-carb binge is that it has nasty long-lasting undesirable and painful after-effects and regrets. As of consequence you're more determined and convinced that a low-carb high-fat diet the only eating plan to live life sustainably and free of pain and suffering and staying in shape and living to a ripe old age.
Regarding the reversal of diabetes, I've started using the term Dr. Cywes uses, which is remission. I think it's a little more accurate and speaks to the idea that the diabetes may well return if old habits are resumed. "My type 2 diabetes is in remission," and it is because I've embraced the ketogenic lifestyle.
"About the same as a mammogram."
Ummm - for me, that is a good reason to NOT get a CAC score. There is evidence now that repeated mammograms can actually increase breast cancer risk in some people.
Thermography is actually a better imaging system than mammograms. Let's move away from radioactive imaging and find a better way to check calcification in arteries, please.
Yes, but CAC is not something you have done every year -once every 5 - 10 years perhaps. I had it done last year and at my age (69) will probably never have it done again...but it's nice to know and can give one a certain peace of mind -my score was a 6, so it shows I probably chose my parents well, if nothing else.
The FDA has warned that there is no scientific data to demonstrate that thermography is an effective screening tool for any medical condition including early detection of breast cancer. The current recommdations as to how frequently a person should undergo mammography take the risks of mammo into consideration. X-rays are produced within an x-ray tube but mammos are not produced from "radioactive" material.
I can see clearly now. Thank god for you guys saved my life period.
All of the official dietary recommendations are based not on science, but on the findings of a political committee in the early 60s headed by Senator George Mc Govern. We all know politicians instantly know everything once they are elected, and money and lobbyists have no influence on them.
Randyyyyy
Even if the good doctors of today wanted to keep up on the new research, they don’t have time to devote to new info and they don’t get paid for that extra time which would be on off hours after office visits. We have to pretty much take care of ourselves with our health and do our own research.
You right, but it would be nice to go to my doc and have him atleast know what I'm talking and not argue with every thing I say.
Raaven36 it’s true but sad asf
You never stop learning. Doctors have the responsible to keep up to date. You get your degree and you do not stop there and put your feet up.
"Stop eating shit..." Straight to the point; I like it.
Dr. Berry, OMG, PLEASE DO NOT USE A POISONING YOUR NEIGHBOR'S DOG ANALOGY, ffs. What in the hell?
I love you, your information, etc, but good god, man, never ever use that again.

Keto certainly cured my atrial fibrillation... I was amazed it happened so quickly
Thank you so much for this comment. Of course there are lots of reasons for Afib but mine is getting scary and I can't take any of the meds or have ablation, so your comment gives me courage to try keto.
Thank you for this comment it gives me hope that I too may have my AFIB corrected..
@@Xzyu2 No but thanks for thinking of that.
If cured from afib, are you no longer on meds? Husband would love to get off meds
I tried Dr Ornish’s vegetarian diet and my triglycerides went through the roof. Back to keto and triglycerides are now in the normal range.
Yes, from what I've learned, food that is dense in refined carbohydrates raises insulin levels to digest, and that starts making triglycerides which is a fat train to your fat cells. You can't use your own fat when your insulin is high.
Proof is in the pudding! Way to go!
@@cassandrasmom keto friendly pudding.
Yeah, just look how the Ornish diet helped Steve Jobs. :-/
Just watched (July 2022) a program from the UK where they interviewed a nutritionist from Stanford who claims the Keto diet has a dire outcome. He did a 2 week study of randomized humans with one group doing the Mediterranean Diet and the other the Keto Diet. It showed mixed results at odds with each other. But his opinion the Keto would offer a bad outcome vs. the data from Mediterranean lifestyle. Apples vs Oranges. They compared Mediterranean peoples outcome equal to the randomized N. American people completely ignoring the Arctic Diet (Ketovore) of N. Am, N.Euro, N. Asian ancestry. The Helsinki Heart Study which many use for support of the controlled cholesterol for preventing heart disease never addressed why Inuit people had relatively low heart disease although their diet was only fat and meat.

Where can I go for my doc that tells me that I'm crazy for even suggesting a Keto diet? I'm a T1 Diabetic, and they just won't listen...
I believe in the dietdoctor page they recently released a place for LCHF doctors to register so people can find the closest to them. Maybe you can find someone there?
There is a hugely successful Facebook page called "typeonegrit", a group forum for type I diabetics. Perhaps someone there might know of doctors trained in keto for type I's... good luck 😊
Get a new doctor.
Who needs a doctor to eat. They cannot force you or forbid you to eat certains foods. Eat only meat, a bit of fruit and veggies till you're full. That's all there is to it.

Before I cut the cord, I used to pay to have advertisements shoved in my face. Now, for 1/4 of cable cost, TH-cam premium doesn't pester me with ads. It is worth it. Plus, being able to blank the screen while TH-cam is playing is a great plus.
5:00 “except maybe pathology” - I’m a keto pathologist. I’m not sure why you think the person responsible for studying the pathogenesis of diseases shouldn’t have to know what’s causing the majority of disease processes in the industrialized world (diet)...!

When my dad was first diagnosed as diabetic, many years ago, the thing he was advised to do was cut out sugary foods (not necessarily all carbs). but as the years have gone on different doctors have told him that sugar and carbs are ok. That he only needs to take more insulin. Its like the medical advice has gotten worse and worse as the years have gone on. He has recently done low carb and been losing weight and feeling better.
I'd love to hear you talk about the difference between table salt and natural salt. I think table salt and processed salt is very dangerous, but natural whole salt is a vital nutrient.
Its mostly because the modern ocean has micro plastics and that is in the salt made into regular table salt.
Whereas like Redmond is mined from under the earth and isn't contaminated like that.
I've heard that those microplastics may also be in sea salt and therefore an ancient salt such as Himalayan pink salt would be a better choice.
@@hoperesnick1453 Himalayan red salt is a great choice. Be aware, it contains almost no iodine though. You have to make that up in some fish occasionally, but the salt is great.
I just don't see many people who look fit and healthy having heart attacks. I work as an engineer and I had a colleague who had one in his 30s but he was skinny and pale with a potbelly and actually a vegan. That's not to diss the vegan thing but I mean maybe being incredibly skinny and pale with a potbelly while spending all day in front of computers isn't all that healthy. Is that a stretch to assume? I had another colleague who died of type-2 diabetes soon after turning completely blind in his 40s -- he was ridiculously overweight and just looked like a giant blob sitting in a chair.
What I don't see happening so often are fit and healthy-looking people dying all around me. So I mean whatever works for you to get fit. That's probably the safe bet. If that's keto for someone, awesome. If it's carnivore for another, awesome. If it's vegan for another, awesome. But I mean don't become some skinny-fat pale-looking vampire with n inflated belly or someone with a double-chin who can't see their own crotch standing up. Simple. Maybe we can optimize further beyond that but I don't think it has to get that much more complicated for a start.
Anony Mous I work in an IT department where 5 out of our 65 employees had heart attacks (no deaths) over the past 7 years. All male, 45-63 years old and only one who was overweight and a smoker. It’s shocked us all as they weren’t the type of person who we pictured having a heart attack. Other than the one smoker, we would have thought the other obese or diabetic employees would have been more likely to have heart issues. Just looking fit and healthy doesn’t mean a thing. Look up David Babbitt and the CAC score.
My husband was thin and climbing trees a week before his emergency triple bypass operation. 57 yo. He’s ok now but can’t assume anything about how a person looks. ✌🏻
@@junkgirltoo5005 I'm very sorry to hear that and hope he becomes well. I know with health that we can have so many anomalies, like Olympians diagnosed with cancer. I would just say it's almost certainly rarer among fit people. And I think our health industry has become so insane (ex: HCLF vegan woman claiming that losing her period is her body's way to "detox" or herbal/green tea shortcuts to weight loss or people thinking water fasting for weeks or months is a good idea) that we need to kind of restore it to something very basic and simple for a start before we try to optimize it any further.
Just because you look healthy don’t mean you are.
Brilliant! Great analogy, the idea of self-poisoning - & thanks for all this good info -
The lack of definition of what “Low Carb” means is exactly why we should stop using that term and stick exclusively to “ketogenic diet”.
My heart doctor told me to change to a Mediterranean diet after I had lost my desired amount of weight on the LCHF diet I am on now. I looked up that diet on line and it include things that I have come to believe are unhealthy. I am 80 years young and my primary care doctor tells me I’m the healthiest 80 year old patient she has, however I do need to raise my HDL and lower my triglycerides. What should I do?
.
Stay on LCHF
The standard American Diet has almost 50 yrs of data...and the data is very very bad!
I finished up a 106 lb weightloss using keto and intermittent fasting. Now however, they say I have chronic a-fib and both aortic and tri-cuspid valves are regurgitating quite a lot. AND...I had a very large cardiac effusion (1.6 liters) drained. I cannot blame the ketogenic way of eating for these events.... Or should I ? Since this effusion was drained, I can breathe easier and blood pressure has returned to 117/77.
I have been dealing with afib for over 40 years, balancing potassium and sodium, maybe magnesium but try and get as much in food as possible, stick with keto.
@@stevenkramer5162 - Thank You 🤗
Nancy Archibald this is why I’m scared to try keto :/
I had an very unexpected quintuple by-pass in august of 2019. I am a diabetic that was taking metformin before the by-pass and was force fed the ADA diet in the hospital. My sugar was always high because of the carbs and suga that they were feeding me. When I got out of the hospital I went on the keto diet. My doctor is livid and tells me that I am killing myself! I also had a bad reaction to the Crestor they had me on so I tried Zetia and had the same reactions. I refuse to take a statin. My ldl is up higher than they want it but my A1c has fallen from 7.4 to 5.9.
I am having a really hard trying to find a doctor that knows what they are talking about when it comes to keto and nutrition. So damned frustrated.
Catherine Mendel but then you exceed your carbs.
Check out Dr Paul Saladino and Dr Paul Mason also
Jana F some veggies have little to no carbs specifically green leafy vegetables
@Catherine Mendel Electrolyte imbalance isn't normal. One thing that messes it up is coffee. You don't need vegetables to have normal electrolytes. I find if I cut out coffee or limit it I have no muscle cramps, and if I drink a lot of coffee I do. I think nutritional ketosis is great, but that doesn't require plants either. Paleomedicina is a great source for what I would consider the strongest evidence of proper nutritional ketosis to treat illness and disease in the context of no plants, no supplements, and preferably no medications (when possible).
Catherine Mendel 7 to 10 cups of vegetables are ridiculous. I don’t listen to berg anymore. He conveniently sells stuff so you don’t have to slam 10 cups of veg. 🤔
Hi! .... From Coeurd'Alene, Idaho
Bonners Ferry here
OMG !!!
The Commercials TH-cam targets at the viewers of this video are killing me !!!!
ROFLMAO and got a concussion, broke my funny bone, and my heart stopped !!!
Losing 45 pounds on the Keto diet. My cholesterol levels went up but my ratios improved and say the raise in total cholesterol is in spec. All other disease indicators improved to normal. I'm looking to get rid of my doctor and trade him in for a pro Keto doctor because he insists on statin drugs. He doesn't care about the ratios and facts. He thinks cholesterol is bad no matter what.
Super great info Dr. Berry!! LOVE all your very informative videos. Thanks for all your hard work.
26:20 I feel like doctors saying that they “don’t have enough time; too complicated” is a bit of an excuse. Or, at least, shows how little social communication skills they often have. Here’s an easy, simple, quick explanation: “cholesterol can act as a repair mechanism for the body, including the arteries. Inflammation causes damage to the heart and arteries, not cholesterol, cholesterol is just like the firemen to a fire. But that doesn’t mean the firemen CAUSED the fire or are harmful, even if they’re always present at the scene. You’d rather stop the fires to begin with, right?”
There, 4 sentences that most people above the age of 12 can understand.
Replay from Alabama! So glad you have a cardiologist on!! I have been concerned about my heart.
33:00 Stop eating shxt. 👍👍❤️❤️
Sorry Dr. Ken, I said it wrong, I sub to Your channel and others who really what to help. I DO keto and making it a lifestyle, because it works !
Would you both do a talk about keto/carnivore and its effects on your immune health? Hearing you discuss the shutdown and the pandemic got me thinking how that’d be a really good topic for you two to cover.
I’ve seen research keto actually helps people with COPD because fat releases less CO2 so they don’t have to fight to exhale as much of it.
I had a calcium score of 2. Ate Ketoish for a few years because of high A1C which got better. But now 6 years later my calcium score is 113 and my doctor told me to stop. Honestly, we eat out a lot. Steaks and such, deep fried fish. Be careful folks! You have no idea what kind of cooking oil a restaurant is actually using. Now I am on baked fish, and intermittent fasting. It never ends!!! Keto is not for everyone.
Any ideas why ? Leached calcium is usually the complaint about keto, your experience is the opposite.
Yep! I’ve learned that high, prolonged or elevated blood glucose “burns off” your glycocalyx (sorry about the spelling) that protective barrier to your endothelial layer.
Loretta.. that's because you and I have learned a lot from Dr Ford Brewer!! Him and Dr Berry are my two go to guys excellent information
Bart Robinson ABSOLUTELY TRUE! I love Dr Brewer he’s is open and honest and I so value his videos - awesome to hear from a fellow follower.... and I love Dr Berry’s take and presentation on health. I got my teenagers to listen to Ken Berry’s straight talk on his opinion (that my kids know is same as mine) on junk foods and that study! If you were to ask my teens what I call the cereal isle and the biscuit, chips, soda/juices and confectionery isles in the supermarket, you’d hear them respond with “the cancer isle” “the disease isle” and “the death isle”! Thank you for connecting 💕
@@lorettadillon-ham1574 .. and thank you for your thoughts. Hopefully someday I can be a patient of Dr Brewers just can't afford it currently.
@@bartrobinson2103 Not heard of Dr Brewer, I heard it from Dr Malcolm Kendrick.
I heard about glycocalyx from Ivor Cummins over a year ago. Been keto for more than 2 years. Never been diagnose with anything, never been overweight but was feeling crappy.
My doctor is happy with my progress and said keep up good work lost 14kilo 54yrs this month no more back pain has been great
Happy 54th birthday 👏👏👏
Hi there Cheryl, congratulations :)
Can you tell me what you ate and how your diet looked like it your day to day habits?
Stop eating SHIT and start eating real foods! Love it!!!
My LDL sky rocketed. But it didn't worry me once I understood LDL particle count.
Subject matter, presentation, quality of information? Fantastic!
15 interruptions for ads selling stupid stuff nobody needs?
Not so much.
In a way I’m glad that TH-cam has suddenly gone crazy with the adverts (about 20 adverts in this vid), people will start looking for other platforms with less adverts so TH-cam won’t have such a monopoly and maybe come down a peg or two in their arrogance.
Watching it later after the live ended and I only saw one ad at the beginning which I was able to skip after a short delay. Must be a live thing.
Sorry to keep repeating this, but I see ZERO ads. Watching on a Mac with Firefox browser and AdBlock Plus.
@@midwestcarnivore1857 Thanks for the reply. I've just gone back to to the vid (obviously it's not live anymore) and I still get lots of yellow advert markers. Haven't got the time to watch it again to see if the ads really come up. However it could have something to do with how much TH-cam people watch. I don't watch any Tv, and mostly TH-cam, and recently I've been watch a lot more because I've been learning a computer program course, so maybe that's got something to do with it. However the amount of adverts on this particular video was unusual even for me.
@@jselectronics8215 Thanks for the tip. If the adverts really get annoying I might consider AdBlock Plus.
@@midwestcarnivore1857 Just realised that I watched the vid on my phone, however the same vid on the computer is ad free.
May 1, 2020 My triglycerides are at 235; glucose is 114; A1c 5.6; ldl 108, HDL 42.1 should I be concerned? HFLC diet for 3 months. I'm a VA patient.
Oct 15 2019 Triglycerides 164; glucose 180; A1c 7.8; ldl 58.7; HDL 39
Papa T it’s early days yet for you. It can take up to a year for lipids to improve. You didn’t get to Oct 2019 levels overnight and you won’t fix it overnight either. You are heading in the right direction - Trust the process
@@bjhope1 thank you.
Dr. Berg. Could you please do a show on how it is possible a. A1C test could possibly give a 3 month average of (I'm not really clear). I would love a full explanation. My elderly friend who is type 2 said he was 7.4 about 5 months ago but his latest blood work we just had done is now 8.4 and we started him on Keto March 1. His qeight dropped 30 lbs so far, he has gone from 60 units of insulin to maybe 20 units a week. His new Dr just prescribed metformin instead of insulin, but 8.4? On Keto? Please help me understand. If you would allow consults I am trying to fight with this new Dr and his prejudices with Keto. As well my roommate is 63 and its hard to help him understand what I am trying to help him understand. He has a lot of eye problems, neuropathy, and some skin issues. He was in prison for 24 years and just feleased to us March 1. So thats where our journey began. How can I reach you? What is your charge for a consult?
About a month a go I got real bad shoulder pain stopped my pravastatin now for four days was this good? Went to my Dr and he gave me cream to rub on. I am 76 but in good health. Thanks Scott
Excellent video!! I have AFIB but until I went keto I had some really severe symptoms but they gave improved quite a bit. Went off keto and it got bad again so I’m starting keto once again and this will be my forever way of eating from now on! I’m convinced that what ever symptoms that may pop up in the beginning is just a cleansing or healing crises and it will pass if I concentrate on the right and healthy way of eating. Thank you both for a very informative hour!
Have you had to stay on meds at all for afib?
After two months of a Ketogenic diet I lost 19 pounds and had improvements in sleep quality. I had more energy and felt great.
been doing the keto diet for 4 months 116 kg down to 104kg,trying to reach my goal of 95kg
Hi I watch all your videos and love your channel but I have to say I don't know if TH-cam gets the money or if you do but the amount of advertising that appeared on top of this broadcast was the worst I have ever seen. Sorry but it was totally ridiculous.
Why so many commercials? What a wonderful interview all the interruption made it hard to follow.
Nancy Mclain it’s you tube trying to push us to buy subscriptions.
Capitalism. It’s a good thing.
TH-cam premium well worth the money. Do we expect them to provide their service for free? I am sure no one here works for free.
Try the Firefox browser. They have free add-ons like Ghostery that block pretty much all ads. I never see any ads on TH-cam.
A Ken Berry / Diet Doctor mashup....funk that muscle mass!!!
Thank you Dr.Berry! Sharing this discussion with my friend who has heart problem. Keto diet ..way to go!
I've been a subscriber almost since your channel started. Patron as well. Doc, 16 ads tho? C'mon
I only saw a few
I leading bariatric surgeon, Dr Andrew Jenkinson, based in London, England, states in his book, "Why We Eat, Too Much", that the high cholesterol problem is specifically caused by eating carbohydrates, and not by eating fats.
I have been doing keto since October 2019 i have lost weight, my blood pressure in the last 3 weeks had dropped considerably, went to wellness in February was told all blood work was good but cholesterol was high and i shouldn't be doing keto, my question is at some point will my cholesterol regulate or will it stay high, I fully intend to stay on this keto journey.
Are you doing dirty keto? Cholesterol shouldev leveled out well within the same year you started the diet.
@@drew7915 i started out doing strict keto, but now I do dirty keto sometimes but not all of the time
I get that ya need to get paid for the info you're sharing, but HOLY ADS!!!! 13 mins in and 4 ads already.... :(
