For two years + I was injecting 2.0 ml Ozempic per week. No weight loss, was still hungry, and had bowel movements once a week with constant abdominal pain. Im on Ketovore now and have lost 70 lbs in 8 months. My A1C, Triglycerides, and HDL have dramatically improved. I feel better than I did 40 years ago.
No offense. I don’t believe you. Solely because there is a bot campaign going on spreading mistruths and false reviews of GLP1’s paid for by pharmaceutical companies who don’t have their own glp1… yet.
You just told my story. Used Ozempic 1mg per week. Would tell my doctor every appointment that I lost little weight, was hungry 24/7, had stomach cramps before bowel movements and trowing up during hard physical activity a day after injection. The drug dealer doctor had no comment or reaction. I was constantly lethargic, couldn’t get off the cough to save my life. Have been on low carb diet for 6 months. Lost my constant hunger, have energy to spare and can’t stay seated for more than five minutes without getting up doing something. Lost 17 kg (37.5 lb). Eventually had to wean off 1mg of Ozempic and 2000 mg of metformin to avoid hypoglycaemia. Now drug free, fasting blood sugar 4.2 mmol/L (75.6 mg/dL), hbA1C 4.9%. Never felt better. I have had unrelated health problems, kidney stones, uric infection and constipation. Started taking psyllium to solve my constipation problem which worked. Kidney stones have been reduced in size but not clear yet. Working with a new doctor to clear my this problem.
Excellent job Rebecca and Dr. Boz! Bravo! After two heart attacks in the last 10 years and 20+ years of high insulin, I can say that Dr Boz and others have really educated me. My entire adult life I have exercised no less than 2 hours a day on two intense bike rides every single day. I actually enjoy the exercise and feel odd if I don't get a daily dose of exercise. This is okay, but not sufficient. Under the advice of Dr. Boz I have only, within the last few months, obtained glucose reads in the 60s. Before now, I never had a reading lower than 130. My A1C has normally averaged 200. Although exercise is beneficial, I now understand, and quite frankly knew but refuse to admit, that diet is vastly more important. If I behave myself, I can keep my finger prick readings under 120. Still not the best but much better than the 220s until recently routinely measured. I actually like canned sardines but include quite a number of boiled eggs and modest amount of cheese in my diet. My dessert is an apple I eat in the middle of the day. I usually eat my first meal about 11am and last about 5pm; so intermittent fasting? I do not have any support, so stories like yours are an inspiration to me. Thank you. Robert
Tremendous story and explanation! I have been listening and reading Dr Boz books and courses for a long time and have felt a bit dense. The tie in directly to why Ozempic is not working - finally made this sink-in to my comprehension! *Yes - Dr Boz has explained this in many forms before! Dr Boz has more patience than I can imagine! - And I am so grateful. Big thanks to Rebecca for sharing this very specific story!!! You are on your way now!!!!
THANK YOU REBECCA, I am so happy you found DR BOZ and you will NOT regret it one bit. She will get you healthy, and as she said. ONE KETONE AT A TIME. Good luck on your journey, we are all there. THANK YOU DR BOZ..........YOU ROCK, YOU REALLY DO.
I got so sick I thought I was dying. I didn't do well on Metforman, they decided to try adding Ozempic and my insurance required I also be on Metforman. Next thing I knew I started passing out at work, not dizzy and faint, but rather lights off like a light switch awake on impact wondering what happened. Then I was told I had to have my Gall Bladder removed because I spent a month puking and passing out, not a cardiac issue. I went off both, but now have a very hard time eating always feel sick. I did get a Gastrectomy after recovering and have lost weight and now have an AIC of 5.6
Keto, paloe, carnivore, exercise and weight lifting. No weight loss until i went on trizepatides. Im very happy i finally found something that works. My question is...as far as i know, peptides are strings of amino acids. Carnivore is consuming more amino acids? Is that part of the healing with carnivore? Is that why there are fever cravings on carnivore?
I am so glad that you don't prescribed ozempic to your patience. First little while I was doing fine but then I got really sick to the point where I wanted to call the ambulance. Being the way I am stubborn I didn't call the doctor the next day and he told me to get off of it right away! I was diagnosed with crohn's disease about 3 weeks after there was no Crohn's disease it all had to do with the ozempic. For most people it might work but for me never again
The schedule Dr Boz is speaking about works for me as well. I’m not using ketones only Glucose measurements but I usually break my fast with coffee w HWC & stevia, at 8am I have protein meal, usually eggs then walk an hour. I eat low car/protein meal again around 11am then fast the rest of my day. I usually row for 15-30 minutes after my meal. Occasionally I will have a snack (sardines or hb egg) if I’m hungry but it’s rare. My fasting window is 19-21 hours, it’s easier if you eat low carb. I’ve lost 17 lbs since June when I started being a bit more strict. I always gain weight if I don’t watch the carbs (less than 30gr). I can lose weight if I follow intermittent fasting. My A1C has been prediabetic for 10 years but got into the 6.5 range, that’s what made me decide to watch it closer. It’s the diet & time I let my metabolism rest that dies it for me. My BG readings are averaging 104mg/dL, higher in the AM but drop 2 hours after my meals into under 100mg/dL. I’m still waiting to do my next A1C test in Dec. I hope I’m back to normal & have lost enough to be normal BMI. Best thing is my BP med has had to be cut down to 1/2 tab, hopefully soon to be cut completely…my BP always goes very low & I get dizzy when I lose weight. Dr orders to slow cut meds. Dr Boz & others give sound advice, it takes patience but slowly your health can be gained back.
I tried ozempic - for 4 weeks had the worst migraine I've ever had in my life. I lost weight that week because I was stuck in bed for three full days with vertigo and nausea. I didn't eat and barely drank. I tried it again, but the first day the migraine, vertigo and nausea started immediately. I'm much better off doing fasting.
According to science, adding intense and regulated aerobic exercise would significantly help with excess insulin production. In fact, there are very few downsides to adding consistent, progressive and regulated strengthening and aerobic activity when dealing with many insulin issues. That process is called training - not merely exercise. Also, sauna use is best not to be confused with training or exercise. Sauna usage is primarily a technique used to help the body adapt to heat stress, which is beneficial for those training in hot conditions. The day a person understands the difference between exercise and diet vs. training and fueling is the day a person's life will change On that day, the use of GLP drugs becomes more palatable as a treatment used to jump-start training and fueling as a lifestyle. If anything, this video reflects the biggest gap in medical education: the lack of sufficient training and experience in the fields of Exercise Science and Sports Medicine. None the less, it is very informative.
Just a heads up to fellow follower....I got a flu shot + a COVID vaccination. Next two days my keto fasted blood sugar raised by 20 points. Felt terrible. It went back to normal on day 3 to 4. I found on google that this is a known response. I didn't know it!
You are extremely lucky if that's all that happens after that shot. It's funny what can mess with your blood sugar. The full moon messed with a male friend of mine. Always bottomed out every month.
I'm finishing up week 6 of doing an 80+ hour sardine fast a week. This week I'm not feeling as cold so I hope that means that I am getting more fat adapted. Does pepper help with ketone production or just taste? I personally don't like pepper but would power through it if it will help increase my ketones.
Inspiring story, thank you. By fixing Rebecca's insulin resistance, over time will she be able to eat more normally, e.g. carnivore or keto without the small eating window?
I know someone who was on ozrmpic and didn’t lose by being on it 6 months then switched to monjauro and not until the highest dose did she lose any weight plus using miralax pepcid etc she can’t go any higher but she had gallstones prior and thyroid I’m really worried she’s not doing herself any good
I was on ozempic for a yr. Lost 20 lbs and my hair. Although bloodwork showed i was deficient in vitamin d, i couldnt be sure if that was the cause. I could up my daily intake of d but couldnt take the chance of still using ozempic. I chose intermittent fasting & my hair instead. Im early in the journey but determined to be successful.
My daughter did not listen to me about my high readings after eating ut would stay up for hours. Now i have PAD. Im having my veins checked tomorrow. I was on Ozempic. I lost 30 in those 3 years. Im on keto now and my readings are to low at 47
I’ve just found dr.boz. She has mentioned sardine challenge here and in another video, but i haven’t seen it described. Can anyone provide a link so i can understand it? Thanks in advance
HELP! Dr. Boz, how do I find a local doctor that is on your level? I can't even get my dr to order an insulin test. He said he's not familiar with it or how to interpret the results. I'm so frustrated. I need to trouble shoot a couple things with a doctor that's actually educated on this topic.
We just don't know what the impact of these side effects from Ozempic will be when a zillion people use it, as you indicate. I do think it could be a viable option for those patients that are too large for bariatric surgery and are bed bound like the 500+ pounders. In that case, benefits from GLP-1 agonists may outweigh the risks. Once they cease to be morbidly obese, I would then transition to a low-carb or carnivore phase. I recently did hear of a 649 pounder, who at 6' 7" tall lost to down to 395 pounds strictly with low-carb / calorie restriction. Non med techniques can work!!
I'm not quite on track with the group. I'm on day 4 of a sardine fast in hopes of not only breaking a stall but also losing what I gained on beta blockers.
Ketone production is not dependant on low glucose. It is dependant on low insulin. In fact, when you are producing ketones, you are producing glucose too. They are not opposites.
This video was like you we talking about me! I am struggling with the fasting. Just cannot seem to get through the evening. Although you explain several things about ketones I still am puzzled, after 5 months of daily MCT dosing I get SUCH a boost from it that I feel guilty! Like it is a drug. The external ketos do the same thing. My testing of ketos are high, but the blood sugar are above 98. The more fasted I am, the more likely they seem to jump up over 100. I get great ratios. Food intake is mostly 3oz meat and green salad, and fat. Weight loss has averaged about 1/2 lb a week. Why do I respond so strongly to MCT? I feel great! I just want faster results.
Dr Boz you really need to look at sardine can. The front says sardines but the ingredient says herring. Seems a herring can be a sardine but a sardine can’t be a herring
On a different, but familiar subject, can you explain this: "The results clearly demonstrate that, in the absence of weight loss, the ketogenic diet does not improve glycemic control or insulin"....Effect of weight-maintaining ketogenic diet on glycemic control and insulin sensitivity in obese T2D subjects....drc bmj content/12/5/e004199
I feel I am in the same boat as Rebecca. I think I am still insulin resistant. Been keto since 2017 and ketovore since 2022 (more carnivore) Will getting your ketoCONTINUUM teach me how to lower my insulin?
I would be interested in your thoughts on tirzepatide, which is mainly GIPwith a GLP boost, a 5:1 ratio. That seems to have better results with insulin resistance.
@@gohim2j I am losing slowly..27 lb in 7 months, but added in weight training too…age 69. I feel it’s because i’ve had insulin resistance for many years. I do stay around 30-50 net carbs plus protein, water and 500 calories deficit based on TDEE calculation.
What about picking up some prawns and eating those? And if a diabetic, then Ozempic is a good thing. It is actually made for that - not as a weight loss drug. Ozempic also isn't $1000. It is about AUD$30-120 a month max.
If you do your part and get your protein in and heavy lifting and resistant training, the loss of muscle mass is not an issue. In fact, you can gain muscle on GLP1 Very EASILY if you are utilizing the medication properly.and it’s definitely not 1,000 it’s on average a couple hundred Bucks and if u are micro dosing it’s $50 or less a month.. and when the food addiction is controlled you are definitely lft with “emotional emptiness “ which sounds terrible but you are forced to deal with WHY you were leaning on food as a coping mechanism so with a proper protocol diet exercise lifting and therapy to understand why you got to this plane in the first place.. glp1 is great as a tool to get down to the nitty gritty of emotional eating
Always informative and insightful. However, even a gentle criticism of Ozempic may not be appropriate for an MD. Has there been enough study on what Ozempic does to the pituitary, pineal, and hypothalmus? There are indications that it can cause Multiple endocrine neoplasia. Shouldn't these impacts be evaluated more closely given the possible disruptions? I would rather see patients follow your drug free protocols all together. (Exceptions involving supplements, of course).
I take bulletproof coffee 14 hours after fasting. 1 tsp of met oil and 1 tsp of heavy cream. Then continue to “fast” till 11 or noon. But I also heard that bulletproof coffee break my fast. I am confused. Please help
Good information, much appreciated. As it goes with every medication, some benefit , some don’t. Semaglutide worked very well low dose for me with small side effects.
@@Violets14I dont trust that the olive oil in the cans is 100% olive. It can claim 100% but be cut with canola. That goes for the olive oils you see in store
My guess is… it would be next to impossible for a female to eat enough food/calories to keep her metabolic rate fairly level. Too few calories can cause a slowing of weight loss too. Eventually, she may be able to get to one meal a day.
I'm manipulating my own hormones - I don't need GLP-1 spin-offs to do that! Keto! Yay! 35 kg of fat vanished somewhere. I wonder where it went? Somebody out there got it?

Is there any way you can speak to Dr tyna Moore about ozempic ? She speaks of muscle benefits , heart benefits etc . Need to find out what is right
Carnivore / keto diet is all you need
You are right!!!
What kind of sardines? Which do you recommend? Thank you
Amazing that one of the ads that came up while watching your video was Ozempic! 🤔

What is the Dr. Boz # I should be trying to achieve? What would be the “good” range?
Herring is a grown up sardine. Sardines is a young herring.
What do you recommend for humger outside your eating window? Some butter or HWC maybe? I don't have the willpower anymore to be hungry.
What is the difference between the pick fingers glucose number on the machine (4.8) and the number you speak off 130. Blood sugar.etc.

Search for sardine challenge. There are a lot of videos including from ketogenic woman and Courtney Luna
I don't have the link at the moment but I remember she said to have them with olive oil and eat what you need to be satiated for 3 days.
We also need to discuss on what her dosage of Ozempic was wishing microdose thing or was she on a high dose that is a huge factor
If a person taking the Trizepatide A1c goes down, does that mean they are making more insulin?
Another fantastic episode!!!

Dr Box, What can I do about having to take 10 pm meds with food? What should I eat to avoid a rise in blood glucose and trying to lose weight?
Why do I feel like the answer is "sardines"? ;)
So what if I'm insulin resistant and histamine intolerant what do I do to replace sardines?
When/why did eating become so complicated?
Would this be a life long protocol?
Is the fingertip pulse/sp02/blood glucose meter a real thing or another scam.
What about picking up some prawns and eating those? And if a diabetic, then Ozempic is a good thing. It is actually made for that - not as a weight loss drug. Ozempic also isn't $1000. It is about AUD$30-120 a month max.
If you do your part and get your protein in and heavy lifting and resistant training, the loss of muscle mass is not an issue. In fact, you can gain muscle on GLP1 Very EASILY if you are utilizing the medication properly.and it’s definitely not 1,000 it’s on average a couple hundred Bucks and if u are micro dosing it’s $50 or less a month.. and when the food addiction is controlled you are definitely lft with “emotional emptiness “ which sounds terrible but you are forced to deal with WHY you were leaning on food as a coping mechanism so with a proper protocol diet exercise lifting and therapy to understand why you got to this plane in the first place.. glp1 is great as a tool to get down to the nitty gritty of emotional eating
Always informative and insightful. However, even a gentle criticism of Ozempic may not be appropriate for an MD. Has there been enough study on what Ozempic does to the pituitary, pineal, and hypothalmus? There are indications that it can cause Multiple endocrine neoplasia. Shouldn't these impacts be evaluated more closely given the possible disruptions? I would rather see patients follow your drug free protocols all together. (Exceptions involving supplements, of course).
I take bulletproof coffee 14 hours after fasting. 1 tsp of met oil and 1 tsp of heavy cream. Then continue to “fast” till 11 or noon. But I also heard that bulletproof coffee break my fast. I am confused. Please help
So conversely, if you're trying to gain weight, you should eat pretty much all day, especially at night?
Will she ever be able to go back to eating dinner?
❤❤I want to lissene in ebrew lengwitsh please ,because I don't anderstend well. In Israel,, ❤❤❤thank you❤❤❤❤
Isn’t the “Dr boz ratio”. The same thing as GKI??
No - different thing but both helpful imo
Good information, much appreciated. As it goes with every medication, some benefit , some don’t. Semaglutide worked very well low dose for me with small side effects.
❤❤sardine have chimikalim?❤
Are the sardines w water or olive oil oil
Olive oil. You can add olive oil if you have the sardines with water.
@@Violets14I dont trust that the olive oil in the cans is 100% olive. It can claim 100% but be cut with canola. That goes for the olive oils you see in store
What if your type 1 on insulin can insulin still cause aging
Kinda curious why you didn't recommend OMAD for Rebecca, with two meals already so close together?
My guess is… it would be next to impossible for a female to eat enough food/calories to keep her metabolic rate fairly level. Too few calories can cause a slowing of weight loss too. Eventually, she may be able to get to one meal a day.
@@carolbozarth5477Also she had an experience with a lap band (plus ozempic), so she may still be having trouble eating enough protein
I'm manipulating my own hormones - I don't need GLP-1 spin-offs to do that! Keto! Yay! 35 kg of fat vanished somewhere. I wonder where it went? Somebody out there got it?
don't understand these number, I am of medication for diabetes and my number are 7.9 or higher and just now getting about 6
do you want to collaborate with Dr. Gundry? - You could both cross promote and do guest interviews on each other's Vlogs?
I now have fibromyalgia
BLOOD sugar is way to low omg
Will NEVER VOTE FOR Kamala !!!!
