Highlander I am needing to lose 40 lbs and I'm desperate but I don't know what to do or where to start!! I don't understand this keto method and how to do it...how did you start doing it! You seem like you've had 100% success and I really would love to lose this weight!
www.ruled.me/guide-keto-diet/ good site, you basically drop all harmful foods such as refined sugars, trans fats, any breaded foods, no pasta, grains, etc.. you have to switch your body to fat metabolism by dropping under 50 carbs a day, carbs are easy to measure, you look at food and do total carbs and you minus the fiber and you have the total net carbs, you also have to add the added sugar in as carbs. personally i eat low glycemic veggies to fill this, stuff like kale, spinach, chard, broccoli, cauliflower, green beans etc... and good sourced meat, stay away from processed meat if you can and gmo, and remember get fatty meat, they make a keto app for the phone that will track all of this, everyone is different so do not go by the 80/15/5 rule you have to find what works for you, anything else please ask
congratz to yourself, i have noticed i am alot sharper than i was, ketones we know run the brain better and this brain fog lifts, it is rather great we can do this
360 days on keto..and i have lost 40 kilos!!!i couldn't have done this without your help Dr Berg. now i am have totally changed my eating habits and all of this can only made possible by taking Dr Berg advice. Dr Berg changed my perception of a DOCTOR..normally Dr gave me the prescription medicine but Dr Berg gave me advice on the the root of my diet problems. Thank you Dr Berg and God Bless you🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🤝
I won't lie I've done this diet before and I'm now doing it again before my trip! I gotta say not eating carbs and sugar has not just helped me slim up but has made my depression go away!! This man is telling the truth y'all! Great work doc
I have recommended your videos to close friends and family and the benefits of keto and this lifestyle are changing us all. It is absolutely transforming my life: my fat is melting away, my mood swings are gone, my mental clarity is better than ever. Thanks for breaking down the science for us in your life changing videos. Much Gratitude to you sir.
Hey Corey, have you ever taken exogenous ketones? I am telling friends who have trouble with sugar cravings that they should try this method instead of going cold turkey! I've seen astounding results
Thanks Doctor! So many people either exaggerate or just plain lie. It took me nearly 4 weeks to get into Ketosis. I was, eating food that had hidden carbs (I was so careless). I re-organized, "listed my foods" and now am "burning off" the carb stores. In my case I take off first where I put it on last: butt, thighs, face..............I am now seeing the fat come off my gross belly. Thank you for being so realistic. This system works. You must be patient, organized and persevere.
This is my 3rd week and I've lost 8 lbs. Don't see a big difference in weight and sizes like many people do, but have sure seen a big difference in energy and no more headaches like before (high blood pressure).
actually, thats a LOT of weight. Good for you!! keep going. One day at a time.

I started keto diet this Monday, and even I already seen and read a lot of keto related material, your information is always something I looking forward to hear.
Dr. Berg, I was scrolling down TH-cam when I saw the words (What happens if you stop eating sugar) I click on the video that was 3 weeks ago. Now my body is now changing because of the information you are giving-I feel so much better. I can now get myself up out of bed in the morning without rolling out of the bed. Thank you so much for taking the time to educate us-you are changing lives.
I lost 19 kg in 9 weeks on a keto-intermittent lifestyle! Went from a size 44 to 38 as well... Thank you for your videos Dr. Berg it really helped me make a mind switch, no looking back, nothing regrets.
the people that say ketosis is deadly are the people that have never tried it, I've done it for about 8 months and have lost 63lbs. Plus I don't have food coma and I also have more energy.
Eric Berg sir, does doing ketosis and intermittent fasting on the same time result in eating limited amount of fats? like u said more than 30 grams of fat and 30-40 grams protein per meal will result in burning of dietary fat and protein conversion to insulin. this is resulting in me eating two times a day only but that too few amount of food, apart from the Greens for potassium, but u said, in intermittent fasting one can eat a robust meal. so what do I do, how much should I Eat
Down with 3 kgs in a week with the keto diet! such a clean and contrast explanation Dr.Berg. Have been following you. Thank you for your tremendous work! Applause!!
I am so thankful for you, Dr. Berg. Thank you for sharing so much important info. with us. Probably most of us have doctors that don't practice this kind of healthy living and it's so good to have you to turn to to REALLY help our health!! ♥
You are so right about the last part; I spent so much on new wardrobes!!! My 1st year on keto I literally had to buy smaller clothes every other month! I finally started buying clothes a bit too small in anticipation that they'd fit in 2 months; it worked! Now in year 2 I'm not as strict with IF or OMAD so I'm able to maintain my new weight instead of constantly losing weight. I can think of worse problems! 😄
My blood glucose levels have improved a lot. I was waking up with at least a 126 and this morning my BGL was 89 ! I started my low sugar low-carb lifestyle on March 21 st and I am down 8 lbs :)
Hey, thank you from Switzerland for your great videos. I am an athlete but I had mood swing issues a lot which influenced my performance to a point where I just could not go anymore on certain days, emotionally and energy - I had an idea it could be nutrition. I googled a lot for about 1 year how I could handle this without any drugs ( I didn't want to be sucked into this whole medicine and doctor thing) and finally found this channel after a lot of try and error. This stuff really works, since May 2018 on Keto Diet and it changed my overall look, feel and performance.
Thanks Dr Berg for all this tutorial videos your are feeding in TH-cam. Thanks to all this videos, I took the decision on giving a go to this keto thing diet. Right! After my fourth day right now, my belly has gone flat. I am 175cm and I am 87kg originally from Barcelona. I think I have gone down in weight already, but don't want to look ,so I will have my surprise. I have always been snacking a lot due to my job as cabin crew, and always eat bad. You never know when you are going to eat next, so eat now, as eating concept. I took this habits at home, and all I do is snacking whilst being for hours in front of the pc working for my masters too. I have started it by cooking on bulk: broccoli, asparagus, Brussels sprouts, and blue carrots and regular baby carrots and olives. Added garlic powder and generous 3 to 4 table spoons of olive oil. My breakfast is 2 black coffees with a tea spoon of coconut oil, and a handful of walnuts, as I am nothing hungry at all in the mornings when I wake up. And a big lunch by 2pm as 1 fill up cereal bowl of the vegies mentioned above and 3 hard boiled eggs. That takes me long to dinner time by 7 to 8pm only with 2 black coffee in between (no coconut oil this time) and/or two Pukka supreme match tea. (Does tea and coffee spikes sugar blood?). My dinner is half a bowl of cereal full of the vegies mentioned above again with olive oil and a tin of mackerel in olive oil, (I drain the oil on the fish). But I must say as well, that I eat things that don't spike blood levels a lot.I have something to mention: I don't know if the reason for achieving flat stomach on my 4th day, it is because of getting into healthy eating, or because the ketogenic diet is kicking in. Got my strips coming on the post by eBay, so I will know soon. I am not vegetarian but, I have also realised I feel a bit better by eating less meats. To all this i must day I drink apple cider vinegar unfiltered morning and night. I love eggs as main source of protein, and my cholesterol levels are good so far, (as blood test done recently too). I don't eat dairy as I think it makes my asthma worse. I don't exercise much, as I don't have much time, or either because I am flying all over Europe, or because I need to crack on my studies because I am falling behind, but I have to mention that, today my 5th day I still see my belly flat, which also flying long term, (11 years) gives you chronic blowtiness. On my days off I catch a plane and I go to Palma de Mallorca to see my boyfriend, as he lives there and I live in the outskirts of London. I will post my weight in a week time or so from today!! I have feelings and a big hope that, this time this works for me :) !! I have subscribed to your channel and I find it very interesting. THANKS DR BERG!DanXX:)
It took me EXACTLY 6 weeks to become fat adapted and start to lose weight. I am not fat, I could do with losing 4kg, but I was so sugar and carbs addicted, my nervous system was overactive and I had terrible restless legs syndrome, terrible memory, no motivation, napping throughout the day. It is now all gone after 2 months of Keto. I'm so happy... the funny thing is, I have discovered to many amazing low carb chefs that I am eating better than before and even having more icecream, cookies and cakes lol I just make them with almond and coconut flour. I cannot believe how amazing and easy keto is.
Fantastic information Dr Berg we have referenced to your TH-cam channel as excellent source to our customers in our blog and we will continue to do so kind Regards Coretorque team
Hello Dr Berg, your videos are so good insightful. Appreciate it so much. One humble request 1. plz keep your video volumes higher, coz even max volume on my mobile is not enough to hear every word u say. Im forced to use a head phones. PS I don't hv any hearing loss LOL 2. Plz give sequencial numbers to ur videos and Plz make videos into playlist, but TH-cam seems to skip the sequence of your playlist and play some random videos instead
Are you kidding? He didn't explain what Ketosis is. He didn't even touch on the subject. All he was saying was the benefits and what to expect and a little bit of information about what ketones are but not what ketosis is.
I was working out, but cutting refined sugar, and processed/junk food out of my diet made THE difference in losing weight. Went from 182lbs to now 160lbs, and feel much better.
Great information Dr. Berg thank you. As an aside, electric cars are not clean, they require a ridiculous amount of earth moving for the battery's metals, then are a liability when they no longer run.
I am on Keto but my Keto includes green smoothies. I drink 3-5 green smoothies a day (mostly kale, banana, berries) plus meat and fish. This really works for me.
I don't get it. Ketosis is when ketones are in the blood which can occur after a 12 hours fast. But ketosis is also something that takes up to 6 weeks to get into properly. So, what is ketosis? Does "ketosis" mean two things? I can't find a simple answer anywhere!
Just a headsup if anyone is curious lol. I'm down to 218 and my biceps are 16 1/2 inches around(solid two inches bigger😁 I'm not done by any means, but it's part of my routine now and I wanna get to about 180-190 and a building Alpha's, short dudes gotta stick together! I'm 5'9 btw🤣
Almost two year old video, but hoping for a response, because I am not sure where to pose the question. Regarding sugar and pickling vegetables at home. From what I understand sugar is broken down in the fermentation process. But is that safe for Keto diet? and if so how long would I have to wait to be sure for all of the sugar to have been broken? Cheers
Dr Berg, my wife read the following comment on a website. How accurate is this? The ketogenic diet is generally not suitable for a very long duration. It can promote uric acid accumulation in the tissues, osteoporosis, mineral imbalances, nutrient deficiencies and muscle protein loss over time. Another side effect is a fruity odor of acetone on the breath, as this is one route the body uses to excrete ketones.
Wow this was 4 years ago?! I totally fell into ketosis by accident. I was doing a 30 day detox and while doing so I lowered my calorie intake. I want to get my digestive system running right since sitting for long periods at a time during the work I do made it sluggish and also stomach pains. Long story short I got a urine and blood work done and had +1 ketone. I also burned so much fat it actually scared me. I will try it again but will be more prepared
Dr. Berg, I appreciate all the information you've put on TH-cam about the ketogenic diet. It has helped changed my life for the better. Since the middle of March to now 5-12-2017 I have lost 40 lbs. I'm wondering though does drastic weight loss , like what I've had, cause back problems? For the last few weeks my middle to upper back has been in pain. I don't have a busy life style nor do I work out. I'm currently at 200lbs from 240lbs. I'm 5'10, and follow keto every day. I also do not have a labored career. I've never had back problems before a few weeks ago. Any advice or knowledge on this topic would be greatly appreciated, --thank you
Hello! You have many very, very informative videos! Thank you!!! Congratulations!!! I have a question, my husband is on a keto diet and his blood sugar is the same before eating, after one hour and after two hours. Is this normal? He's a bit worried. He lost 22 pounds in 45 days already and his blood sugar is usually 5.9 (from 12.5 when he was diagnosed in the beginning of June).
As for the effectiveness of building muscle mass, it is definitely a carbohydrate diet + protein no. 1.! However! With health, it's a little different. A carbohydrate and high-protein diet is not entirely healthy positive in the long run ... (if we take an adult). Ketosis has a huge application in life, if you take it as a tool, but not for building muscle and sports performance. Ketosis is a tool for regeneration to prepare, to cleanse the body. Ketosis is a tool that is excellent before the period of building muscle mass where you will be on a predominantly carbohydrate diet with plenty of quality protein. Ketosis is literally a biohack tool. How is it in nature? Animals in the wild are found in ketosis during periods of food shortage. It is, for example, the winter season ... They are in idle mode. Their body regenerates, prepares in spring and summer when they are not in ketosis, because there is enough food, but mainly mating takes place. For example, bears mate from May to August. It is a period when they must gain enough fat to survive the winter again. The bear gives birth in January, February and needs fat stores for her little ones to be able to breastfeed. Do you know what makes fat the best? From fructose. Blueberries, raspberries and strawberries are also food for bears in the summer season. "Sugar is a great servant, but a very bad lord." If you know how to control it properly, it will bring you benefits such as strength, muscles, endurance ..... If not, he will bring you to the grave 100% and kill you.
You can get into Ketosis within 48 hours doing a water fast. It will take longer if you are diabetic, possibly up to 96 hours to flush out excess sugar in your blood.
I have a question, around minute 3:23, you say that while on this eating plan, the body will gain muscle mass. Don't we also need resistance/weight training besides proper nutrition to trigger muscle growth? I lost 150 lbs on keto diet, but did not build muscle by just eating this way (or any other way). I only started building muscle once I started lifting weights (in addition to proper nutrition, in my case keto). I love keto for weight loss, of all eating lifestyles, keto is my number one for weight loss. Good video.
When your doing Keto and intermittent fasting is bullet proof coffee breaking your fast? How many days a wk would you say to fast on Keto? Just interested in your thoughts
My pants went from size 38 to a 28, that's success isn't it? I am 5'3 and went from 215 to 150 now. Still have some blubber left and am healing slowly but surely. I eat only real whole foods now and rarely allow carbs in. I need to know what to replace spaghetti and rice with.
Hi Doctor Eric , you are doing great job. I need to ask that can I go on keto dite with polypasic sleep ? If possible please a video on this topic , it will helps a lot thank you.
I did keto for months and didn't lose even 1 pound nor lost fat. I used the strips and never entered into full ketosis, no idea why. Any ideas of what I might have done wrong? I was bloated and very constipated. I am thinking of doing it again if only I could find what I did wrong.
your my coach i am sport nutritionist m never study all things this much deep about keto diet m watch almost every your video anytime m need help first check your video god bless you
Can KETO stop the inflammation in the body. I am a chronic painer (5 plates in my neck) but I am still able to work full time. I once had a rotator cuff surgery and then 2 more repairs back to back. The surgeon said I am someone who builds an enormous amount of scar tissue. I know my pain in my neck is 80% related to scar tissue accrual.
How does keto affect blood pressure in a healthy person? Can it drop it to unsafe levels? There was an article where systolic could go down as much as 10 points and diastolic 6 points. Depending on where you are initially, that could drop you below the 90 and 60 minimums respectively. It would be great if you and Sten Eckberg addressed some these experiences or potential downsides.
I know I am not quite prepared to give up all of my unhealthy carbs totally at this point. But after watching your videos what I would like to try is to fast for 24 hours twice per month and prepare for the fast 2-3 days in advance by ensuring I am in a Ketosis state in order to maximize the benefits of that fast. I am fasting for general physical and mental health. Would this approach provide any benefits?
Hi Erik Berg I love you Channel 👍 I have lost 10 kg in 3 months and i am so happy. I'm almost never hungry and eating twice a day. I will continue Keto , so long that it is easy for me. I have heard, that you Can not depend on the selected strips to measure ketosis, do you know anything about it?? Hugs to you Pearl from Denmark 🇩🇰🇩🇰🇩🇰
Dr Berg, does your body produce ketones if you burn the fat you eat (example oil, avocado...etc)? or ketones would only be produced when burning the fat stored in your body? thank you!
I don’t know. I’m an athlete. Burst energy is important and having glycogen is imperative to burst energy but keytones is what I run on in mountains. Longer energy, more clarity and focus and I don’t have to make stops while hiking. I eat my carbs and proteins at the top for recovery.
Intermittent fast. Vitamin B, C and Coq10. I might add MCT oil if I feel if my body is low on energy. I don’t know this for certain but Im guessing if I take a small amount of MCT oil my body digests as keytones then those keytones act like a primer for my mitochondria to process keytones from internal stores of fats. I can’t be certain but what I do know is I can last for hours without hunger pains nor a loss of energy while climbing mountains.
When he said "I will NEVER go back to running my body on sugar because once you feel the benefits you won't go back .." I felt that.
Me too. In fact im reading this while eating cake.
@@alangabrielnietosaavedra3639 wow your cake must be made from vegetable
Right…I did too! That was powerful and something to live by.
Almond flour cake@@alangabrielnietosaavedra3639
Me too
over 3 years keto and lost over 200lbs and fixed a myriad of problems with my body, good video, it saved my life in fact in an accident
Highlander I am needing to lose 40 lbs and I'm desperate but I don't know what to do or where to start!! I don't understand this keto method and how to do it...how did you start doing it! You seem like you've had 100% success and I really would love to lose this weight!

congratz to yourself, i have noticed i am alot sharper than i was, ketones we know run the brain better and this brain fog lifts, it is rather great we can do this
He has lots of videos explaining. Works great but expect some suck periods like keto flu as adjust.
Intermittent fasting is good too.
360 days on keto..and i have lost 40 kilos!!!i couldn't have done this without your help Dr Berg.
now i am have totally changed my eating habits and all of this can only made possible by taking Dr Berg advice.

The expensive part the new clothes..👌🏽😂😂. True indeed.

Of you get thinner, expensive clothes don't matter..everything looks and feels better! Use a tailor for expensive suits or dresses!
Yup. I had to buy all new clothes!
That is SO great! lol bet you look fantastic now.
Amen "who cares how much you weight as long as you have a small waist "
My_moves_ MsRachel haha lol

im so lucky to find you in youtube... im already lost 13kg in 1 n half month..thank you so much sir..keto diet brought my life happier ...
wow:)
tried one day, it was very impressive.
My brain loved it.
Hate the high and low brought by fruits....hate the emotional rollercoaster!
These videos alongside of my physician saved my life.
It took me EXACTLY 6 weeks to become fat adapted and start to lose weight. I am not fat, I could do with losing 4kg, but I was so sugar and carbs addicted, my nervous system was overactive and I had terrible restless legs syndrome, terrible memory, no motivation, napping throughout the day. It is now all gone after 2 months of Keto. I'm so happy... the funny thing is, I have discovered to many amazing low carb chefs that I am eating better than before and even having more icecream, cookies and cakes lol I just make them with almond and coconut flour. I cannot believe how amazing and easy keto is.
How many carbs did u eat during the 2 months
Fantastic information Dr Berg we have referenced to your TH-cam channel as excellent source to our customers in our blog and we will continue to do so kind Regards Coretorque team
You explain this in a way the regular guys like me understand. Thanks Doc!!!
Hello Dr Berg, your videos are so good insightful. Appreciate it so much.
One humble request
1. plz keep your video volumes higher, coz even max volume on my mobile is not enough to hear every word u say. Im forced to use a head phones. PS I don't hv any hearing loss LOL
2. Plz give sequencial numbers to ur videos and Plz make videos into playlist, but TH-cam seems to skip the sequence of your playlist and play some random videos instead
Very clear explanation thank you!
:)
Are you kidding? He didn't explain what Ketosis is. He didn't even touch on the subject. All he was saying was the benefits and what to expect and a little bit of information about what ketones are but not what ketosis is.
God Bless you Dr Berg Please keep increasing our knowledge on rebuilding a healthy body...
"who cares what you weigh if you can get a flat stomach" is so true
Thank you for sharing your knowledge I've learned a lot god bless you
Thank you for teaching me how to do this the safe way.
I was working out, but cutting refined sugar, and processed/junk food out of my diet made THE difference in losing weight. Went from 182lbs to now 160lbs, and feel much better.
Simple,honest, clear. That's why he has over 5 million subscribers
Great information Dr. Berg thank you. As an aside, electric cars are not clean, they require a ridiculous amount of earth moving for the battery's metals, then are a liability when they no longer run.
I am on Keto but my Keto includes green smoothies. I drink 3-5 green smoothies a day (mostly kale, banana, berries) plus meat and fish. This really works for me.
You are so smart Doctor Berg!!! Love 💕 your videos. I’ve learned a lot from them!
Dear Dr Berg, thank you very much for your explanation, you made it so clear. 🙏
I don't get it. Ketosis is when ketones are in the blood which can occur after a 12 hours fast. But ketosis is also something that takes up to 6 weeks to get into properly. So, what is ketosis? Does "ketosis" mean two things? I can't find a simple answer anywhere!
Thank you Doc. Very informative!
Love your dry sense of humor.
Please do a video on the pros and cons of achieving ketosis with water fasting
I cut out carbs and sugar, and I've only been eating meat for the past 8 days.... I've lost 15lbs. My brother lost 12. I was 260, 245 now, this works
Just a headsup if anyone is curious lol. I'm down to 218 and my biceps are 16 1/2 inches around(solid two inches bigger😁 I'm not done by any means, but it's part of my routine now and I wanna get to about 180-190 and a building Alpha's, short dudes gotta stick together! I'm 5'9 btw🤣
I weigh 208 now but I was 240 beginning of last winter😩 and I’m 5’5😂 I’ll let you imagine how I was lol I hope you’re still grinding!❤️👌🏻
Fantastic!
Thank you, Dr. Berg this information is so helpful. Am 65 and want a sharp brain. Hallelujah!!!
Almost two year old video, but hoping for a response, because I am not sure where to pose the question.
Regarding sugar and pickling vegetables at home. From what I understand sugar is broken down in the fermentation process. But is that safe for Keto diet? and if so how long would I have to wait to be sure for all of the sugar to have been broken?
Cheers
Dr Berg, my wife read the following comment on a website. How accurate is this?
The ketogenic diet is generally not suitable for a very long duration. It can promote uric acid accumulation in the tissues, osteoporosis, mineral imbalances, nutrient deficiencies and muscle protein loss over time. Another side effect is a fruity odor of acetone on the breath, as this is one route the body uses to excrete ketones.
Yes I do blame you my friend... MY suits do not fit anymore!! Thanks a lot :)
Haha nice one, you got me there.
Thank you for your Ministry of Health
Ur way of informing is really impressive
Wow this was 4 years ago?! I totally fell into ketosis by accident. I was doing a 30 day detox and while doing so I lowered my calorie intake. I want to get my digestive system running right since sitting for long periods at a time during the work I do made it sluggish and also stomach pains. Long story short I got a urine and blood work done and had +1 ketone. I also burned so much fat it actually scared me. I will try it again but will be more prepared
this was helpful actually. thank you
:)
Eric Berg !! can i follow ketosis diet while i am pregnant??
Dr. Berg, I appreciate all the information you've put on TH-cam about the ketogenic diet. It has helped changed my life for the better. Since the middle of March to now 5-12-2017 I have lost 40 lbs. I'm wondering though does drastic weight loss , like what I've had, cause back problems? For the last few weeks my middle to upper back has been in pain. I don't have a busy life style nor do I work out. I'm currently at 200lbs from 240lbs. I'm 5'10, and follow keto every day. I also do not have a labored career. I've never had back problems before a few weeks ago. Any advice or knowledge on this topic would be greatly appreciated, --thank you
Hello! You have many very, very informative videos! Thank you!!! Congratulations!!! I have a question, my husband is on a keto diet and his blood sugar is the same before eating, after one hour and after two hours. Is this normal? He's a bit worried. He lost 22 pounds in 45 days already and his blood sugar is usually 5.9 (from 12.5 when he was diagnosed in the beginning of June).
thats a good thing.
As for the effectiveness of building muscle mass, it is definitely a carbohydrate diet + protein
no. 1.!
However!
With health, it's a little different. A carbohydrate and high-protein diet is not entirely healthy positive in the long run ... (if we take an adult).
Ketosis has a huge application in life, if you take it as a tool, but not for building muscle and sports performance. Ketosis is a tool for regeneration to prepare, to cleanse the body.
Ketosis is a tool that is excellent before the period of building muscle mass where you will be on a predominantly carbohydrate diet with plenty of quality protein. Ketosis is literally a biohack tool.
How is it in nature?
Animals in the wild are found in ketosis during periods of food shortage. It is, for example, the winter season ...
They are in idle mode. Their body regenerates, prepares in spring and summer when they are not in ketosis, because there is enough food, but mainly mating takes place. For example, bears mate from May to August. It is a period when they must gain enough fat to survive the winter again. The bear gives birth in January, February and needs fat stores for her little ones to be able to breastfeed. Do you know what makes fat the best?
From fructose. Blueberries, raspberries and strawberries are also food for bears in the summer season.
"Sugar is a great servant, but a very bad lord."
If you know how to control it properly, it will bring you benefits such as strength, muscles, endurance ..... If not, he will bring you to the grave 100% and kill you.
Hey man, what are your thoughts on the fasting replacer diet to get into ketosis ?
it's one avocado + green drink 2/day
You can get into Ketosis within 48 hours doing a water fast. It will take longer if you are diabetic, possibly up to 96 hours to flush out excess sugar in your blood.
Can diabetic person have ketosis status. After fasting or no carb diet
I have a question, around minute 3:23, you say that while on this eating plan, the body will gain muscle mass. Don't we also need resistance/weight training besides proper nutrition to trigger muscle growth? I lost 150 lbs on keto diet, but did not build muscle by just eating this way (or any other way). I only started building muscle once I started lifting weights (in addition to proper nutrition, in my case keto). I love keto for weight loss, of all eating lifestyles, keto is my number one for weight loss. Good video.
beautiful explanation as always.
Oh wow! Thanks! I'm so glad you found it helpful.
When your doing Keto and intermittent fasting is bullet proof coffee breaking your fast? How many days a wk would you say to fast on Keto? Just interested in your thoughts
Great video. I will be sharing your content!
Thanks a lot!
Dr. Berg's Support Team
Thanks for the video Dr
My pants went from size 38 to a 28, that's success isn't it? I am 5'3 and went from 215 to 150 now. Still have some blubber left and am healing slowly but surely. I eat only real whole foods now and rarely allow carbs in. I need to know what to replace spaghetti and rice with.
Love it!!! Finally I understood what is ketosis 😅
Hi Doctor Eric , you are doing great job. I need to ask that can I go on keto dite with polypasic sleep ?
If possible please a video on this topic , it will helps a lot thank you.
Wonderful person superb explanation
Respect from karachi Pakistan
Dr. Berg, if you are undergoing chemo after a mastectomy and breast cancer diagnosis....can you do a keto diet and intermittent fasting? Is it safe?
this is very beautiful explanation !!! and we thank you for your help !! may i ask for an explanation on ketosis on a parasite cleanse ? thanks anyhow
Thank you for sharing your knowledge pls keep going
Great talk :-) Thanks for sharing :-)
Dr BERG 🏔! Thank you
I did keto for months and didn't lose even 1 pound nor lost fat. I used the strips and never entered into full ketosis, no idea why. Any ideas of what I might have done wrong? I was bloated and very constipated. I am thinking of doing it again if only I could find what I did wrong.
your my coach
i am sport nutritionist
m never study all things this much deep about keto diet m watch almost every your video
anytime m need help first check your video
god bless you
I need to get of sugar.... why doea it seem so hard...thanks doc. Very informative. 👍
I'm starting slow with this keto process and I'm doing it to feel better and to gain more muscle on my body. I've been in a fog
Can KETO stop the inflammation in the body. I am a chronic painer (5 plates in my neck) but I am still able to work full time. I once had a rotator cuff surgery and then 2 more repairs back to back. The surgeon said I am someone who builds an enormous amount of scar tissue. I know my pain in my neck is 80% related to scar tissue accrual.
Incredible info :) thank you !
Most welcome! Glad you found it useful!
Bad analogy diesel is like ketosis. It's literally burning oil which is a better energy source than gas or a battery pack...
How does keto affect blood pressure in a healthy person? Can it drop it to unsafe levels? There was an article where systolic could go down as much as 10 points and diastolic 6 points. Depending on where you are initially, that could drop you below the 90 and 60 minimums respectively. It would be great if you and Sten Eckberg addressed some these experiences or potential downsides.
I know I am not quite prepared to give up all of my unhealthy carbs totally at this point. But after watching your videos what I would like to try is to fast for 24 hours twice per month and prepare for the fast 2-3 days in advance by ensuring I am in a Ketosis state in order to maximize the benefits of that fast. I am fasting for general physical and mental health. Would this approach provide any benefits?
Thank you
As a vegan OTR trucker I'm ready to create vegan keto meal plans
Dr. Berg, do you have a food plan available? I would like to purchase it. Thanks in advance.
I’ll blame you and thank you at the same time Doc. 💙
Will lemon water in the morning break my fast? I think it would, but do the benefits negate breaking the fast?
I don't really know what to eat to stay healthy , there are alot of options out there.
If you’re disciplined, keto works great. I have lost 22 pounds in 4 months. I have 10 pounds to go to meet my goal weight of 125.
Precision xtra meter from Abbott tests blood ketones and glucose. Not super expensive.
Blood is supposed to be much more accurate than urine.
Another great video!
Hi Erik Berg
I love you Channel 👍
I have lost 10 kg in 3 months and i am so happy. I'm almost never hungry and eating twice a day.
I will continue Keto , so long that it is easy for me. I have heard, that you Can not depend on the selected strips to measure ketosis, do you know anything about it??
Hugs to you
Pearl from Denmark 🇩🇰🇩🇰🇩🇰
wow
Eric Berg is water fasting ok
Eric Berg also is it faster to get keto adapted
How would you like to spread the knowledge and power of ketosis with friends and family, and make $$$ for it?

Dr Berg, does your body produce ketones if you burn the fat you eat (example oil, avocado...etc)? or ketones would only be produced when burning the fat stored in your body? thank you!
I am diabetic and taking insulin too . Do you recommend certain diets that we can follow and to cook ? .
I don’t know. I’m an athlete. Burst energy is important and having glycogen is imperative to burst energy but keytones is what I run on in mountains. Longer energy, more clarity and focus and I don’t have to make stops while hiking. I eat my carbs and proteins at the top for recovery.
Intermittent fast. Vitamin B, C and Coq10. I might add MCT oil if I feel if my body is low on energy. I don’t know this for certain but Im guessing if I take a small amount of MCT oil my body digests as keytones then those keytones act like a primer for my mitochondria to process keytones from internal stores of fats. I can’t be certain but what I do know is I can last for hours without hunger pains nor a loss of energy while climbing mountains.
