So complete and for me so timely, thank you for your fantastic work! Would you have a video that puts together how to deal with colon cancer? I understand keto + cortisol management (this one! 💓) + cruciferous vegetables + antioxidants -, what else?
@Dr. Sten Ekberg Do you have this video but with spanish subtitles? my mom doesn't know english and i wanted to show your video but i did click on CC but there is only arabic and english.
Root/core issue for me was an abusive x husband...lived in flight or fight mode for years...he was seriously slowly killing me and my adrenal fatigure and lack of cortisol production were my signs. I left -healed my body and becoming better and better every day. People don't talk about this enough when it comes to relationships - you must leave them in order to heal not only your mind but your body as well.
Stress causes you excess cortisol, not a lack of, just so you understand, cortisol in excess is stress, , I'm glad you broke free, and hope you do well now .

Screaming helps too. I bike to de-compress and de-stress. I live near DC National Airport and one time I was too stressed out and for a moment I thought I was going to "lose it". I was riding on a bike path right along the airport, I stopped briefly and just screamed at the top of my lungs. Nobody can hear you because of the airplanes engines noise, so I just composed myself, I immediately felt better, and kept on a much happier bike ride. Good exercise screaming 😄
Thank you for this learning aid. It helps me learn how to relax after a lifetime of bottling up my stress 🤐. Evening out my blood glucose is my favorite.
I grew up with an alcoholic father codependent mom. It left me in a fearful state for many years. I didn't learn to turn off all negative triggers until type 2 diabetes! Thank you DR for the incredible information and delivery. You are giving me hope and encouragement ty❤❤🌠🙏
i’m sixteen and i face excessive stress like most of you guys and my hair has been falling out for several months i used to have really thick hair like i had a lot now i feel like i only have the half of it. i also have digestive issues like irritable bowel syndrome which stress triggers strongly. you can’t imagine how this video gave me hope to cope with my stress. thank you so much for uploading it i hope i can enjoy life again.
Years ago my weight got out of control, and my blood sugar, when I worked overnights. I could not lose an ounce of weight back then. I’m sure it was cortisol, and not just insulin/ T2D. I am still working on decreasing stress, glad to have found these videos!!
Stress has been the number one challenge of my life. This video has given me more insight into what I have to do to regain my health than almost anything else I've been exposed to. Although I've lost almost 40 pounds on a keto diet, I'm not truly healthy unless I learn how to deal with chronic stress. Thanks so much Dr. Eckberg!
I absolutely agree with what you've said. Give yourself a liberty to avoid people who make you feel bad and the people who pull you down they are great stressors.
A TRUE teacher here boys and girls. What a jewel of a person this Doctor is. The kind of person this messed up world needs right now.....Not the one we deserve, but definitely THE ONE WE NEED 🙏🙏
Dr Ekberg, You are the first person I've ever heard say that the Frontal Lobe turns off the Stress Response. I suffered a Brain Injury in 1994, now dealing with Anxiety and Panic ever since. And after 28 years I now have Adrenal Fatigue and Cushings.
Brilliant! Brilliant! Since 1986, when my father died I had been training Malaysian executives on stress management. I retired in 2001 when my husband died. Man! do I know about grief as a stressor. Dr Eberg, you are the best ! Well done! You are so knowledgeable and communicate your ideas so well. I have been listening to you for the past week and truly you are the best.

I went to a lavender festival in cherry valley ca...this festival was located within close proximity to acres of lavender fields...just the continuous scent of lavender was enough to keep me calm and so contented through the day.
Topic: As an Olympic Decathlete and Holistic Doctor, you would know about, and have personal experience, this. Strength building in conjunction with a ketogenic nutritional program. My personal interest in this is diagnoses of MS and Type 2 Diabetes. I've lowered A1C from 12.9 to 6.4 in 10 weeks, gone from 250 to 185 lbs in 5 months (since March) and feel like I can start to exercise now (and have started 30-minute, overall body, resistance band workout) to overcome muscle atrophy in right leg, neuropathy in feet, overall weakness, etc. Seeing many positive results already
Wayne Rogers for muscle atrophy, joints...check into acupressure. I had neurologists, all kinds of specialists making money on tests or whatsoever attest that I am close to a paraplegic and there is no need to test again. Accidentally in Singapore I ran into a reflexologist who after an hour rubbing at one same location in between toes, I walked out with no pain for the rest of my life. I didn't know Keto then and many acupressure practitioners are vegetarians eating one meal a day. I vowed never go back to those specialists, only listen to Dr Eikberg, my favorite and practice acupressure daily besides the list of things shown on this video. Life is perfect and I'm grateful. Check out the temples. The monks are not there to make money. You have to see their practice to believe. Know that they can show you how to cure because they believe if anything comes back within 6 months then they did not cure anything. Trust me, you will be cured.
Before: MAYBE I'll watch this one. During: He's got me taking notes again. 😁 But seriously, Doctor, thank you for such beneficial information and for the organized way you present it to us, which seems to even be perfect for my ADHD brain. 🥰
This is outstanding a person who dealing with chronic stress & anxiety , looking out for solutions got such nice advise from such great person you make my morning & you make my day.
These video presentations are rich in content. The delivery is calm without putting me to sleep. The information is concise & to the point which provides a comprehensive understanding, making it more likely to retain the info. Last but not least, no annoying commercial interruptions!! 🙏
I've been doing this intermittent fasting this quarantine. But these trying times are also stressful, that's why I wake up in the middle of the night. Thanks for explaining and for your tips, Doc!
Hello, i just have discovered your videos a few days ago, and i already watched several of them. I love the way you explain concepts, so calm, clear, very easy to understand. Best Regards from the caribbean 🇩🇴🌴☀️
Thank you so much for this. I've been searching so long for some in-depth answers to the cortisol problem. I've been doing a strict keto diet and monitoring of my calories, macros, and weight and have been frustrated to have stalls in progress after I've had a highly stressful week. The only metric that had changed was the stress level.
@@drekberg Thank you sir, for immediately making the change that I've suggested; you'll notice that I've deleted that comment since it has been changed. You're a real gem! Thank you again and God bless 🙏🙏🙏
Good morning Dr. Ekberg, I just want to say thank you for teaching these things, I learned a lot especially on topics of IF, healthy eating, and weight loss. I myself already loss 6.5 kg since i started IF 3-4 weeks ago 😊💕. My BMI was 30.7 last Aug.10, 2021 and now its down to 28.6 Oct.4, 2021… I hope I can reach the healthy level….🙏😊 Please continue doing this, you are helping many people…. sincerely, Charlie from Philippines 🇵🇭 😊💕
For me is lovely walk under the table mountain and have a healthy breath 5 seconds brain stimulation finding the deep peace something to do all my life and grow myself.
Best info I've got so far about cortisol and solutions to reduce it. I'm struggling with insomnia and get really anxious during the day and night to sleep. It would be great to have a video about insomnia. Thanks a lot for the tips though.
Try putting 2-3 drops of 100% lavender essential oil (with no fillers) on about two tissues and stuff them in your pillowcase. You will be amazed at how much it relaxes your mind, before you know it you’ll be off to lala land.

I picked up weight after my son was senselessly murdered. I just beat cancer (caused by stress) and I’m still gaining weight. I watch what I eat, I’ve been drinking water, walking, went to the doctor and gained 3 pounds, which is adding to more stress and depression. I don’t know how to let go. We didn’t even get efficient justice. I internalized it. I’ve been to counseling…This is horrible! I’m super petite. I’ve never been this big in my life
wow, i am now retired from law enforcement, but I have been tested and found to be high in cortisol and it makes sense, as, a police officer gets this high stress and then quiet, several times a day. then later, went on to take police and fire calls and the same thing… quiet, then bam! a high stress call that can last for a very long time. its no wonder it has taken a bit of a toll on my body over the years. thank you for this video.
My husband has a high stress job and gets very little sleep. He had two major episodes that really scared him so we got bloodwork done. It showed his A1c was 5.8. He immediately went off of sugars and carbs not coming from vegetables and started working on sleeping and breathing. It has been 3 weeks and he still gets shaky when his blood sugar drops. Thank you for all of this information. We are hopeful that things will improve soon.
@@scottp6761 plzzz help me doc, i am having 3 times a day blood sugar drop cause of stress Plzzzz say how can i cure this I am scread 🙂🙂 Plzzzzz help me
I love all the videos in this channel. Dr. Sten, you speak like a teacher, factual critical argument like a scientist and that is why you're a good doctor. I love it whenever you say "body is not stupid" (make big sense to me) in other video 😂😂😂 And I don't understand why other youtuber speak too fast. It increase my cortisol hormone 😇

Solution Nr.10 -reading can easily be done with your wonderful educational videos. You have already changed my life and I`m very very grateful to you for that. Thank you ! 👍👍👍😊
This presentation is a master piece of Dr Ekberg .so clear and perfect solutions explained for controlling and preventing and reducing adrenal stress ..simply Superb ..Thank u sir lots of regards from India.
Heard much about negative effects of cortisol but never had such a complete guide on this important subject that affects health. Not long i tumbled on your videos and find your presentations VERY fulfilling indeed. Maybe because of your teaching method that I personally admire as a teacher myself. Thanks doc and keep it up
Dr. Ekberg I am a vegetarian for 14 years plus vegan for 4 years but with this video you inspired me to buy nutritional yeast and make a vegan chease sauce, I am so grateful
I love to have a pet like a small dog but cannot afford it. Going to church to gather with other people and putting charity to practice helps. I also need to laugh 😂 more. I am a single parent and I feel I am always on a go! I love nature walks with sun ☀️ hitting my face plus fasting is great! But, Lord help me !! Calm down a bit 😂 I can get overwhelmed at times with work and my kids! Thanks for this awesome video very appreciated!
This is tremendously helpful in my understanding of stress and how to help myself because it helps me UNDERSTAND my stress better. Thank you! Understanding our own stress is our way to control it without having to depend on drugs or other addictions to find find temporary relief. This man understands stress more deeply and is not just telling us "what to do" and then blaming us for what we didn't do. He is asking us to understand our individual stressors and gain the power to over-come them with mastery of them with our OWN power. It's about NOT being a victim anymore to our world. We have the power to overcome our negative world and thrive in mind, 🧠body, 👫 and spirit. 👻
I have only recently found your videos but it has changed my life. I really like knowing the facts and figures and reasons behind things. I have two severe autoimmune illnesses and I am post menopause and even so applying the things you shared I am healthier and my weight has dropped substantially. One thing I do in addition is drink a gallon of water a day. I would love it if you would do a video on the importance of water.
Dr. Ekberg - your last 3 videos were just what I was wondering about, even in the same order! It’s like you can read my mind! Your explanation is always on point, you really care about educating people, and you are not trying to SELL any supplements with your face on it! I’m very interested in health subjects to maintain the quality of life, and you are now officially Number 1 TH-cam channel I follow. Since I’m a very picky lady and value my time - it means: Congratulations!!! 🥇🥇🥇 Thank you for all your knowledge you are sharing! Everyone needs to watch it!!!
Saying this after months spent watching multiple channels and videos relating to health and nutrition: Dr. Sten Ekberg is more trust worthy than many popular speakers out there (don't want to name names). I have yet to find a biased or false statement, which I would find in others'. No doctor is perfect, but I find Dr. Ekberg creates very thorough, reliable content.
This video has explained much for me at 66 carrying weight but also shows me how to assist my heart out of not one but two episodes of takosubo syndrome which has had me on beta blockers which have slowed down my energy levels. Have just taken myself off the beta blockers. Introduced small yoga stretches every 2nd day. Thank you.
The first half of your talk is super scientific - which is challenging, but necessary:) The second half totally rocks my world! It’s so full of perfect advice and suggestions! Thank you once again Dr./Sir 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻♥️
Speechless! So much truth and meaning in this video Dr Ekberg. So many things which we have forgotten. It's funny how a breathing exercise I learnt in 2003 actually mentioned breathing out and holding the breath as activating the para sympathetic nervous system. And I'd been skimping on it in the past number of years. At that time I didn't know about Cortisol, GH and weight-loss. I'd been doing Keto for a long time with not much result and then in the past year or so got lazy and gained back the weight. Now have again started again. It's most definitely been the cortisol. Since I got married and shifted home my sleep wake cycles changed cz of my husband. Now I need to go back to my old ways of sleeping at least by 11. He's such a night bird but it will need to be done for me by me. I have tests scheduled for Cortisol etc. Hope to surprise my doctor with good results. Funny how a small change can change everything. Thank you Dr Sten... Will follow and make things right again 🤗🤗
I am a german woman with kPTSD. This video helped me understand, why it is so difficult for me to loose weight. The sympathikus needs me to eat carbohydrates to have sufficient glucose for fight or flight situations which I cannnot avoid. What I learned is, that I need to activate the parasympathikus. Thank you for your advice. Maybe you could make a video especially for PTSD concerns?
Vilken underbar video! Folk har aldrig fattat varför jag inte vill ta del av hög intensiva träningspass utan insisterar på att simma och gå långa promenader i naturen istället. Detta förklarar det perfekt.
Thank you for your clear teaching! Could you do a video on adrenal fatigue? After watching your videos, I know that not everything on Mayo clinic and other 'reputable' websites might be correct🙏
We need all the help we can get so Thank You for explaining the complexities while breaking down this information and also for including 'everything' that we can do to manage Cortisol. Great video, Dr. Ekberg!

Have you ever tried Lithium orotate? It helps deal with stress and anxiety. Its OTC. 5 to 10 mg is suffice. DIM also helps.
I absolutely agree with what you've said. Give yourself a liberty to avoid people who make you feel bad and the people who pull you down they are great stressors.
12:13 Stabilizing blood sugar, Chromium Picolinate with B-6, and minerals worked wonders for me.
Test for b6 before supplementing. Mine goes from too high to too low
Best to supplement with magnesium malate and chromium polynicotinate along with meals to stabilize blood sugar...
Berberine may be helpful. Apparently it stimulates AMP in the cell which helps glucose metabolism in the cells.
How,,,
What minerals

I wish I had seen this video earlier.
I went to a lavender festival in cherry valley ca...this festival was located within close proximity to acres of lavender fields...just the continuous scent of lavender was enough to keep me calm and so contented through the day.
Wow, sounds amazing.
I'm not english from birth, but I understand 100% of your speech, you have a talking skills and you explain so good! thank you
He's not talking,,, he's speaking,,,
Me too, fantastic man , really , I like his video and voice so much
no one is english from birth xd. people become english when they eat fish and fries
I break my OMAD fast daily by watching any of your videos, best Brain Stimulus ever!
I think you are a very kind person to give us all this valuable information, thank you.from the bottom of my heart.
Agree
I listen to this channel every day! The only drawback is it ruined majority of other channels being superior on so many ways 👍
Stress is just another word for fear. And fear is almost always a response to an exaggerated threat.
Sun/light exposure, calming music, human touch, warmth could be added to the list
I wish they could teach like you in med school. Very simplified without the useless information overload. Nice job Dr. Ekberg!🙏
Useless talk about not knowing. Med schools confuse busyness with knowledge & accomplishment.
Or Grade School
This is not a school, college, or university.
Learn to hand out drugs for the pharma companies.
Excellent video. I've read a book on cortisol, oxytocin, serotonin, adrenaline and endorphins. This just cements what I've read.
Thanks 👍🏿
Born to make life simple for others,what a Blessings.

Dr. Sten, my doctor advised me to take fish oil after my total hysterectomy. What kind of fish oil is best? Of good quality. Thank u.
Topic: As an Olympic Decathlete and Holistic Doctor, you would know about, and have personal experience, this. Strength building in conjunction with a ketogenic nutritional program.
My personal interest in this is diagnoses of MS and Type 2 Diabetes. I've lowered A1C from 12.9 to 6.4 in 10 weeks, gone from 250 to 185 lbs in 5 months (since March) and feel like I can start to exercise now (and have started 30-minute, overall body, resistance band workout) to overcome muscle atrophy in right leg, neuropathy in feet, overall weakness, etc. Seeing many positive results already
Good job!!!
Inspiring!
Wayne Rogers for muscle atrophy, joints...check into acupressure. I had neurologists, all kinds of specialists making money on tests or whatsoever attest that I am close to a paraplegic and there is no need to test again. Accidentally in Singapore I ran into a reflexologist who after an hour rubbing at one same location in between toes, I walked out with no pain for the rest of my life. I didn't know Keto then and many acupressure practitioners are vegetarians eating one meal a day. I vowed never go back to those specialists, only listen to Dr Eikberg, my favorite and practice acupressure daily besides the list of things shown on this video. Life is perfect and I'm grateful. Check out the temples. The monks are not there to make money. You have to see their practice to believe. Know that they can show you how to cure because they believe if anything comes back within 6 months then they did not cure anything. Trust me, you will be cured.
Great job, Wayne. I am dealing with many of the same issues.
What is it this crazy habit of not eating carbs ? Carbs are not the problem.
Finally, I now understand why I can’t sleep or stay still or focussed when fasting . Thanks
Before: MAYBE I'll watch this one.
During: He's got me taking notes again. 😁
But seriously, Doctor, thank you for such beneficial information and for the organized way you present it to us, which seems to even be perfect for my ADHD brain. 🥰
He does that to me, too 🤣 I feel like I'm back at University
@@carleegger5322 right??
Me too. What a fantastic resource and teacher Dr. Ekberg is. God bless him.
@Dave YES yes yes me too 😊
This is outstanding a person who dealing with chronic stress & anxiety , looking out for solutions got such nice advise from such great person you make my morning & you make my day.
The very best online summary on what for me has been a life-long issue: informed and articulate. Thank you, Dr. Ekberg.
Nobody explained this so well before! Thank you for sharing this very useful information and for your method of explaining it.
Quintessential advice for holistic health. Thank you, Dr. Ekberg.
Absolutely the best vid on adrenal fatigue I've ever seen. Thanks doc, you rock!
Adrenal fatigue is when your adrenals can't produce more cortisol. It's different. 👍
140 likes and 0 dislike.. now everybody knows content is wonderful.. keep going doctor or sorry brother.. i just love commenting on all ur videos
It looks like a few saw your post and said, "Hold my beer!" There's always a few.
These video presentations are
rich in content. The delivery is calm without putting me to sleep. The information is concise & to the point which provides a comprehensive understanding, making it more likely to retain the info. Last but not least, no annoying commercial interruptions!! 🙏
we get enough of these comments
I've been doing this intermittent fasting this quarantine. But these trying times are also stressful, that's why I wake up in the middle of the night. Thanks for explaining and for your tips, Doc!
I have PTSD and there have been times where my stress level was so high that I felt it impairing my cognition.
Hello, i just have discovered your videos a few days ago, and i already watched several of them. I love the way you explain concepts, so calm, clear, very easy to understand. Best Regards from the caribbean 🇩🇴🌴☀️
What an amazing trainer. What a wonderful way to make someone understand complex topics easily.
Thank you so much for this. I've been searching so long for some in-depth answers to the cortisol problem. I've been doing a strict keto diet and monitoring of my calories, macros, and weight and have been frustrated to have stalls in progress after I've had a highly stressful week. The only metric that had changed was the stress level.
You make complex phenomena simple without talking down to the viewer, way to go!
As usual a wonderful video; thank you Dr. Ekberg for educating us worldwide! May God bless you forever!
i agree
Thank you D Singh. I really appreciate your feedback and so glad that you liked it.

Good morning Dr. Ekberg, I just want to say thank you for teaching these things, I learned a lot especially on topics of IF, healthy eating, and weight loss. I myself already loss 6.5 kg since i started IF 3-4 weeks ago 😊💕. My BMI was 30.7 last Aug.10, 2021 and now its down to 28.6 Oct.4, 2021… I hope I can reach the healthy level….🙏😊 Please continue doing this, you are helping many people…. sincerely, Charlie from Philippines 🇵🇭 😊💕
I love your videos. I cant wait to get home and watch this one. :D They are very informative and detailed. Greetings from Hungary.
Thank you macko sajt.

Reading the Holy Bible has made a significant difference in my stress levels and way of life through its teachings
I thought of doing this but still not to sure about it right now.
Best info I've got so far about cortisol and solutions to reduce it. I'm struggling with insomnia and get really anxious during the day and night to sleep. It would be great to have a video about insomnia. Thanks a lot for the tips though.
Try putting 2-3 drops of 100% lavender essential oil (with no fillers) on about two tissues and stuff them in your pillowcase. You will be amazed at how much it relaxes your mind, before you know it you’ll be off to lala land.
Magnesium lysinate!

I picked up weight after my son was senselessly murdered. I just beat cancer (caused by stress) and I’m still gaining weight. I watch what I eat, I’ve been drinking water, walking, went to the doctor and gained 3 pounds, which is adding to more stress and depression. I don’t know how to let go. We didn’t even get efficient justice. I internalized it. I’ve been to counseling…This is horrible! I’m super petite. I’ve never been this big in my life
Please take the time out to heal your self. You may find you are punishing yourself x
My heart goes out to you, I hope you are in a better place nowadays
Take care ❤.
Condolences for the loss
Love and light❤💫
Great info. Thanks a lot.😊😊
wow, i am now retired from law enforcement, but I have been tested and found to be high in cortisol and it makes sense, as, a police officer gets this high stress and then quiet, several times a day. then later, went on to take police and fire calls and the same thing… quiet, then bam! a high stress call that can last for a very long time. its no wonder it has taken a bit of a toll on my body over the years. thank you for this video.
17 August 2024. What a beautiful piece of work. For free 😭😭😭❤️❤️. Thank you so much Doctor
My husband has a high stress job and gets very little sleep. He had two major episodes that really scared him so we got bloodwork done. It showed his A1c was 5.8. He immediately went off of sugars and carbs not coming from vegetables and started working on sleeping and breathing. It has been 3 weeks and he still gets shaky when his blood sugar drops. Thank you for all of this information. We are hopeful that things will improve soon.
Have some saltines on hand for him. Im the same way.
He could try DIM 100mg. It helps cortisol and high estrogen.
@@scottp6761 plzzz help me doc, i am having 3 times a day blood sugar drop cause of stress
Plzzzz say how can i cure this
I am scread 🙂🙂
Plzzzzz help me
The best stress reduction program, and watching Dr. Ekberg is so calming.
I have finally understood why i have some of my health problems. Thank you!
Just knowing about hie ny body works and what is TRULY HEALTHY is the best thing that lowers my cortisol
I love all the videos in this channel. Dr. Sten, you speak like a teacher, factual critical argument like a scientist and that is why you're a good doctor. I love it whenever you say "body is not stupid" (make big sense to me) in other video 😂😂😂
And I don't understand why other youtuber speak too fast. It increase my cortisol hormone 😇
This is loud and clear Doctor, thankyu sooo much❤❤❤❤
Crying releases cortisol and tension too!
I'm very gentle and sensitive person who cannot cry 😪

Hi Doctor, I watch your videos daily. Learning a lot and have already reduced 5kg from IF, HIIT + OMAD in 2mths. Thank u for your teachings.
This presentation is a master piece of Dr Ekberg .so clear and perfect solutions explained for controlling and preventing and reducing adrenal stress ..simply Superb ..Thank u sir lots of regards from India.
I love your videos. You are an amazing teacher ❤
Heard much about negative effects of cortisol but never had such a complete guide on this important subject that affects health. Not long i tumbled on your videos and find your presentations VERY fulfilling indeed. Maybe because of your teaching method that I personally admire as a teacher myself. Thanks doc and keep it up
Dr. Ekberg I am a vegetarian for 14 years plus vegan for 4 years but with this video you inspired me to buy nutritional yeast and make a vegan chease sauce, I am so grateful
Needed this when I was in the military. Thanks for this great presentation!!!!!
I love to have a pet like a small dog but cannot afford it. Going to church to gather with other people and putting charity to practice helps. I also need to laugh 😂 more. I am a single parent and I feel I am always on a go! I love nature walks with sun ☀️ hitting my face plus fasting is great! But, Lord help me !! Calm down a bit 😂 I can get overwhelmed at times with work and my kids! Thanks for this awesome video very appreciated!

This is tremendously helpful in my understanding of stress and how to help myself because it helps me UNDERSTAND my stress better. Thank you! Understanding our own stress is our way to control it without having to depend on drugs or other addictions to find find temporary relief. This man understands stress more deeply and is not just telling us "what to do" and then blaming us for what we didn't do. He is asking us to understand our individual stressors and gain the power to over-come them with mastery of them with our OWN power. It's about NOT being a victim anymore to our world. We have the power to overcome our negative world and thrive in mind, 🧠body, 👫 and spirit. 👻
Bravo. Well done!
I have only recently found your videos but it has changed my life. I really like knowing the facts and figures and reasons behind things. I have two severe autoimmune illnesses and I am post menopause and even so applying the things you shared I am healthier and my weight has dropped substantially. One thing I do in addition is drink a gallon of water a day. I would love it if you would do a video on the importance of water.
Whenever I do the Hitt excercises my body feels very relaxed..
Dr. Ekberg - your last 3 videos were just what I was wondering about, even in the same order! It’s like you can read my mind!
Your explanation is always on point, you really care about educating people, and you are not trying to SELL any supplements with your face on it!
I’m very interested in health subjects to maintain the quality of life, and you are now officially Number 1 TH-cam channel I follow. Since I’m a very picky lady and value my time - it means: Congratulations!!! 🥇🥇🥇
Thank you for all your knowledge you are sharing! Everyone needs to watch it!!!
Saying this after months spent watching multiple channels and videos relating to health and nutrition: Dr. Sten Ekberg is more trust worthy than many popular speakers out there (don't want to name names). I have yet to find a biased or false statement, which I would find in others'. No doctor is perfect, but I find Dr. Ekberg creates very thorough, reliable content.
You don't want to name names because you can't remember their names,,,
@@lightbeingpontifex You are living in your own tiny world with a tiny little mind.
This is an excellent video! Thank you so much!
Thank you Ingrid R. I really appreciate your feedback and so glad that you liked it.
This video has explained much for me at 66 carrying weight but also shows me how to assist my heart out of not one but two episodes of takosubo syndrome which has had me on beta blockers which have slowed down my energy levels. Have just taken myself off the beta blockers. Introduced small yoga stretches every 2nd day. Thank you.
The first half of your talk is super scientific - which is challenging, but necessary:) The second half totally rocks my world! It’s so full of perfect advice and suggestions! Thank you once again Dr./Sir 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻♥️
Speechless! So much truth and meaning in this video Dr Ekberg. So many things which we have forgotten. It's funny how a breathing exercise I learnt in 2003 actually mentioned breathing out and holding the breath as activating the para sympathetic nervous system. And I'd been skimping on it in the past number of years. At that time I didn't know about Cortisol, GH and weight-loss. I'd been doing Keto for a long time with not much result and then in the past year or so got lazy and gained back the weight. Now have again started again. It's most definitely been the cortisol. Since I got married and shifted home my sleep wake cycles changed cz of my husband. Now I need to go back to my old ways of sleeping at least by 11. He's such a night bird but it will need to be done for me by me. I have tests scheduled for Cortisol etc. Hope to surprise my doctor with good results. Funny how a small change can change everything. Thank you Dr Sten... Will follow and make things right again 🤗🤗
I love the way you explain. You are amazing. Why didnt I meet you before in life😥
I am a german woman with kPTSD. This video helped me understand, why it is so difficult for me to loose weight. The sympathikus needs me to eat carbohydrates to have sufficient glucose for fight or flight situations which I cannnot avoid. What I learned is, that I need to activate the parasympathikus. Thank you for your advice. Maybe you could make a video especially for PTSD concerns?
Thank you for this. I've been grieving for several years, and this is helpful.
So have I hun. Many years. Time for us to move past it. Big (hug)
#1 Should be avoid negative people that make you feel bad. Yes you still can love and pray from a distance.
Please do..atleast try
You are amazing love you so much! Wish you all the best.
Vilken underbar video! Folk har aldrig fattat varför jag inte vill ta del av hög intensiva träningspass utan insisterar på att simma och gå långa promenader i naturen istället. Detta förklarar det perfekt.
Thank you for your clear teaching! Could you do a video on adrenal fatigue? After watching your videos, I know that not everything on Mayo clinic and other 'reputable' websites might be correct🙏
I love your videos .
All of them are very helpful !
Thank you very much !❤
We need all the help we can get so Thank You for explaining the complexities while breaking down this information and also for including 'everything' that we can do to manage Cortisol. Great video, Dr. Ekberg!
