Dr I have a question.. another Dr said his nutritional yeast supplements don't cause yeast infections but they have. Why would they?
Now show us what you eat regularly for weight management please !
I just had my yearly checkup with labs after being carnivore for a little over a year. My blood work has never been better. After more than a year of eating nothing but beef, eggs, and butter. Full of saturated fat. Sometimes a dozen eggs in one day along with 5-6 pounds of ribeye steak, snacking on butter from time to time, and cooking beef fat trimmings. My total cholesterol dropped 17 points. My HDL went up 10 points. My LDL went down 25 points, and my triglycerides went down 113 points. My kidney function improved from 80 to 90. In that year, I lost 150 pounds, reversed type 2 diabetes, reversed high blood pressure, reversed low testosterone, and no longer suffer from autoimmune arthritis issues. I was also able to come off all medications.
@@_carnivore_joe1520 Bravo! 👏😊
@@amygause4721 yeast infection is caused by sugar, yeast lives on sugars. Nutritional yeast is not alive. Everybody has candida yeast in their bodies.
My grandmother ate that every morning for I don’t know how long. Most of her life. She was not obese. She lived to be 99.
Mine was a couple months shy of 99. Bacon and eggs every morning. Butter on everything. She ate predominantly a high fat low carb diet with lots of meat. Chopped wood into her 90s. She had zero problems until she was put on statins by her doctor at 92. Two years later she had a stroke and it was downhill from there.
The greatest person I ever knew. She passed 16 years ago but I still smile about her everyday.
@@dieselbourbon3728 she sounds like quite a gal. My grandma came west to get away from the dust bowl, and I was foolish enough to not record all her great stories. She saw the invention of the airplane in the automobile and space travel. 👍🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
@@sweetdrahthaar7951 That's pretty cool. I wish you good health.
Wow omg . That's amazing!
@@sweetdrahthaar7951
Mine came from Belarus after WW2. She survived two world wars and communist Soviet union. A miracle anyone made it out alive. My dad's family survived the Ukraine holodomor. The stories could make a 7 part mini series.
My paternal grandmother lived to 991/2. Died 6 months before her 100th birthday. She never ate junk food, pasta or bread. She ate meat and vegetables everyday of her life. Was never in the hospital until right before her death. Gave birth to 9 children all at home, worked on a farm. Why aren’t more doctors analyzing diet?
🤑🤑🤑
Because they would lose cha ching
because she hasnt bought any pills or paid for cancer treatments.. lol thats why. they could make cars last 50 years without needing new parts.. but, that puts mechanics and parts stores out of work..
in life, its all up to you in this good & evil world... unfortunately for most, we learn the hard way
Doctors are not trained to heal. They are trained to treat. More money in it, sadly. A healthy patient is no longer worth any $.
My maternal grandmother was the opposite with 3 daughters and lived to 101. She also had a really negative and critical outlook on life. I don't think life expectancy is all that great an indicator after a certain point to diet and vices. Obscene amounts aside.
Im a farmers son. My father and his four brothers ate that every morning. They lived a long and healthy life. No illness or overweight. Potatoes beef chicken eggs veg and buttermilk. The eggs and meat was fried in lard alonf with slices of home made bread.They butchered their own beef pork and lamb as well as churning the milk for butter and fresh buttermilk. No pasturised milk straigt from the cows.They grew all their veg kept bees and had a large orchard. They also worked very hard for long hours in all weathers. I can still taste the apple pies stewed rhubarb blackcurrant jam and those honey combs. I never tasted loaf bread until I went to work in the city. Everyhing was grown naturally no artificial manures or pesticides.
4 brothers on the farm .. probably , john, jacob, josh and jason lol 😂 😂
@@philipcoffman4372 lol
😮
This is how it was intended to be I think , all natural from the earth , Gods design. , I lived and worked on the farm for three months, and was the healthiest I ever been.
@@rosemaryrebola4977absolutely God's design! Just look at what the devil is doing.....
As a former 800 lb woman I’ve lost around 500 lbs and still going! I eat a strict carnivore diet and it’s transformed my life in so many ways. I am healthier now in my 50’s than I was in my 20’s. Doctor is flawed at my progress. I am finally living again! Beef, butter, salmon, eggs! ❤
I am SO proud of you!!! It's a miracle, isn't it?! I'm only in my first week but my brain fog is gone already!!!! I was honestly like almost drugged, it was so bad!! I have lots of other reasons to keep going, but already I'm just astounded it could do so much in such a short time!! My mood has been extremely good too, and I'm even going through a really difficult time with some personal things, so it's shocking my mood jumped up so much. I am so thankful for this diet,!!! 😊❤
WOW!! That honestly INCREDIBLE Lindy! Just starting KETO myself at 300lbs male.
@@MisterDevos awesome! My sister lost a lot of weight on keto. However I needed to abstain from all carbs to get the food freedom I experience now. Carbs keep me craving more. All the best with your health journey :)
Oh girl , i bet you and i have the same w*ed man ..So as 1,5lbs man , i lost 0.6lbs and weigh less than my breakfast eggs, beef, butter, pancakes,grits, sausages and a little desert of an ice cream , I'd like to say hi to my 800lbs warrior sistah :)
1.5 lbs?
I do not even need to watch, because I have been eating Bacon, Eggs & Butter for 2 years. It cured my fatty liver, improved my blood chemistry and I have feel stronger than ever.
Congratulations here's to your good and continued health 🥓
Thank you for this comment ❤currently my situation
What if you are a vegetarian and insulin levels are high with insulin resistance doc ? What can we eat to reduce insulin and Homa IR to get back to normal non diabetic ? Post chemo therapy? What is good for liver
@@balabalakrishna9960 Most holistic doctors are now saying that strict vegetarianism is NOT a safe, healthy diet. there are too many nutrients not available in veg, and too many anti-nutrients in veg that are stressing the liver, hence, insulin resistance. Start eating meat is the answer
Do you eat the bacon with nitrates?
I've lost almost 200 lbs by following your teachings. Thank you Dr. E!!
That's awesome
Incredible! Congratulations!
Wow that is amazing. May i ask what your typical day's menu look like?. I lost 32lb but stalled for a few months. Do you exercise?
You are having a laugh
@Nancy-ko2zv yes I ride my bicycle everyday... cause I'm old (57) and I need some activity. I eat 3 eggs for 1st meal of the day... 3 hrs later I have an avocado... 3 hrs later I have grrek yogurt with berries... for dinner I have protein and a vegetable or two... always something green leafy... if I'm still hungry I'll have some of a large arugula salad. If I'm snacks I'll have nuts and raw vegetables with Greek yogurt as a dip. I've just started (this werkend) doing 1 tblsp apple cider vinegar in water 30 minutes before a meal. It sure curbs my appetite! I concentrate on whole foods... protein and lots of water. I stalled too... but the scale has started moving again.
My grandpa ate butter and bacon daily. People told him he’d die from a heart attack. Well, at age 91 he died from pneumonia. My mom wanted an autopsy done to see what his heart looked like. The report said his heart was great! Looked more like Feb heart of a healthy 40-50 year old man. He didn’t eat sugar either. Nor did he smoke or drink alcohol
Not drinking and smoking was a huge factor of this. I think that’s the biggest killer.
Not using tobacco products of any type, not eating sugar, and no alcohol, are huge keys in a healthy life.
I’m not sure what habits Toby Keith had, but I would bet that he was a fairly heavy drinker and may have chewed tobacco, both double whammies on your stomach. He died from stomach cancer. He was also overweight, which is one of the top three factors in getting cancer.
@@alan30189he also got the COVID vax shots

@@Diseaseisreversible i know a 71 year old guy who is a lifetime smoker but is blessed with natural good health all his life bcause at this age he is very sharp minded, looks great but still smokes every day. So it just depends

Been following your advice for about 6 months. Lost about 20 pounds, huge energy boost, feeling great. Thanks a lot for all the information.
Great results!
Only 20 pounds? Come on!
Maybe he/she doesn't need to lose more. We're not all obese. :p @@rogerphelps9939
Great Story- Some yrs. ago a Tx Oilman was taken hostage in Cent Amer. for ransom. They held him in a cave for over a month and fed him only water & hard boiled eggs. When finally released and hospitaized, he had lost over 30 lbs. and his diabetes and heart issues had miraculously gone away, and all that time w/o his Meds!
He said he’d never felt better since his teens.😳
Haha. Best thing that happened in his life.
It's amazing, but there are so many who just can't fathom the concept. Oh well.
losing weight will help everyone.he was at a calorie deficit.
@@markrush5013my view is it wasn't "simply" weight loss. It was NO EATING for large periods of time, and when he did get food, it was low carb with the bonus of saturated fat.
Take me hostage please need to lose 40 pounds and I'm 68
My mother died very angry at 72 because she had autoimmune illnesses including arthritis before developing lymphoma. She wanted to be healed. She did not want pills, though she was prescribed many. No one ever suggested she change her diet except for myself. After her death, we threw out gallons of medication she never took. Like my mother, I too developed autoimmune diseases and arthritis. I stopped eating the SAD way and switched to keto. I don’t eat vegetables because of multiple allergies. I feel better now than I did when I was forty.
Isn’t it heartbreaking? This is the same as my mum. She was desperate to be well but had conflicting medical and dietary advice. I tried to help her but this was 10 years ago and I didn’t know about keto or carnivore. I’m convinced it would have saved her. I still mourn for her every day and blame myself for not helping her successfully.
@@Susie-se4mv you tried your best, take comfort that❤
You're allergic to all vegetables?
its the sugar.
I cant eat many vegetables either. It's the oxalate and other enzymes that I as someone who has Hashimotos, I get an inflammatory response
Great job doc. Love your videos. Very well done from every aspect.
Hello Doctor:) My weight went down from about 165kg to 105kg in +7 months. I achieved this thanks to the knowledge from your videos. Thank you for everything!
What did you eat
@@missthunderstormable Meat (pork, beef), fish, eggs, vegetables, good quality fat (evoo,animal fat), leafy greens, apples (3-4 months after i started my diet).
For example: first 3-4 weeks 2 meals per day, next 1-1.5 week 1 meal around 1k calories. No sugar or processed garbage food.
@@slavo185 165kg?! Dude, you were a nightmare of every supermarket worker, sometimes all It takes is one bump to make the whole thing go down like dominoes,
On a serious note, congrats👍
@@neonkscksc Thanks! I used to eat like 10 times per day. Most likely junk food, tons of sugar... Now i eat 1-2 times per day. I like to walk like 10-15 km in 2-3h. I eat good quality food and my life is on different lvl 😁 my weight currently is 102kg.
@@slavo185 👌
Love this video and all your videos I’ve started a keto diet with IF and have loss some weight. I did a blood test prior and can’t wait too see my blood test after 3 months. I feel better already. You inspire me and thank you for all you do.
Thank you @jenniferschlesak9912 for letting me know. I really appreciate the feedback. Thanks for watching.😄
Thank you Doctor! You are doing amazing work and we are blessed to hear your wisdom.
Thank you. One of the best videos I have ever seen on keto/low carb and an explanation of why my blood sugar is high in the morning despite being on a relatively low carb diet (about 50 to 60 grams)
The man who uses himself as an experiment. Wooow....
You deserve an award for risking it.
Thank you @francisnartey2585. I appreciate that, but so far only the SAD diet has been a risk. The rest are more like cleanses. 😄

I'm the 5% or less, from a Complex ToXic Fume X-P to Pulp Mill Emissions I became very acidic! Of the 72 Solvents and Chemical's Listed by Environment Canada there was 500 TPDay of ToXic Methanol > Formaldehyde which metabolizes to FORMIC ACID in the Liver then Lactic acid in ALL our Cells! My cellular La kept rising because Bio-diesel uses ToXic Methanol mixed with Restaurant Grease so I was inhaling it on the Roadways! My last day @ work after 3 day's of my body being like a piece of Lead (Hypoxia) my throat mouth and tongue were burning from Formic Acid! (August 13th, 2003)
We we're inhaling Potassium and I was the 13th onsite to have a Cardiac Event. We were also inhaling Aldehyde the hangover component of Legal Drinking Alcohol, and me being a non-drinker had all the damage of a Hardcore Alcoholic! Damaged Mitral Valve, Fatty Liver and depleted Thiamine! I found Paediatrician Dr.Robert Lonsdale's work on Infantile Apnea which helped greatly with my Apnea as dozens of us were Booked for the Sleep Disorder Clinic but never explained why!
Thankfully with the help of a Medical Dictionary and my first use of a Computer I first read the late Dr. Betty Martini's paper explaining the Chemical Chain of ToXic Methanol because her calling was educating the Public about Aspartame Disease because of the Formaldehyde component!
I want to Thank you for your integrity in explaining the pathway to a Keto Diet, as I was into Anaerobic glycolosis because of suffering Hypoxia, my KREB Cycle was damaged and too much Carb intake was metabolising to Lactic acid until I recognized the problem! I met with 3 different Diabetic Educators, but they offered No help!
I'm Thankful for Divine Intervention, the use of a Medical Dictionary and the Internet that I'm here today, as there's over 100 Widow's whose spouses were in such a Brain Fog, it was a challenge to take care of themselves!
@@drekberg thank you for all your teachings!
I have a question, is it too expensive a diet like this one?
I already have stoped eating sugar and most carbohidrates, but due to a very tight budget, it is not easy for me to eat meat in a daily basis.
Do you have any sugestions that I could implement?
Thank you!
Thanks so much for always bringing so much value to your followers. You’re one of the few people I follow and listen to when it comes to my health. Forever grateful. ❤️
Muchas gracias Dr Eckberg por traducir sus videos porque ahora si los voy a poder compartir con mis amigos que no hablan inglés, excelente trabajo Doc, saludos y muchas gracias.
This was a perfectly balanced presentation of info and video length.
You always explain everything so clearly and succinctly. It is much appreciated. Once again, thank you, Dr. Ekberg! Namaste. 😃
Greetings from Venezuela. I started following your videos some weeks ago after taking a blood test that showed me a rise of triglycerides (492mg/dL) and fasting glucose (101 mg/dL). I reduced the amount of carbohydrates that I eat every day, I increased saturated fat and I walked 30 minutes per day. After 3 months I lost more than 10 kilos, my triglycerides decreased to 147, my cholesterol is at 277 and my fasting glucose decreased to 70. I cannot believe it. Thanks for your channel and for helping us to create healthy habits 🎉
Hey man I’m also from Venezuela I started this one week ago, any advice to achieve that great weight loss you had. I’m also walking daily, I’m measuring my ketones and I don’t see them go as high as I would expect but so far I lost 1 kilo. I need to lose 30kg to be on my ideal weight.
@@DiegoAguilera What are your ketones measuring, and your feeding window size? Try walking faster, and adding exercise that raises your heart rate. Some dumbbell work would help. If your ketones are below 1 try decreasing carbs to 20g net carb. Protein good but not too high.
@@DiegoAguilera Hi. Sorry to change the topic a bit, but how was everything during your guys’ economic collapse? In the US, I’m looking for information on other countries for tips and information but can only find very basic and tainted information. Any suggestions for people in the US?
Somehow imagine that majority of people in Venezuela must be on KETO diet, due to constant fasting. So economic collapse is not always bad.
Very interesting experiment. Thanks for showing the results.

This video is awesome. I love seeing blood tests, before and after. A scientific eye opener. Thanks!
Love your channel and keep coming back! You are doing an outstanding job with explaining probably the most important things about our health that regular doctors fail to do. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. You help me to stay healthy! 👍🤩💕
Wow, it’s amazing how quickly your numbers changed. And to think most people eat that way for decades. It’s eye opening. Thanks for sharing
This is a fantastic video! If nothing else, it shows what 30 days on clean Keto can do for your health. I loved how you explained additional details about each test range. I think you just cured me of doing cheat days!
Dr Sten Ekberg WOW! Thank you for this knowledge! Amazing! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I started a keto
diet about 2 yrs ago and went from 218lbs to 194. Never felt better. Strayed a bit in 2022 Christmas, then back down again. Been in Europe for 2 months and strayed a bit but will get back on track for mid 2023. Cheers!!!!!!!
Mixing apple-cider vinegar with butter makes an amazing, simple, keto-friendly sauce/spread for so many things. I like it on baked chicken, with salt and pepper. Tried it one day because it's all I had, and couldn't believe the taste.
Oooh, that sounds interesting. Will definitely give it a go! (I’m carnivore)
Thank you! That sounds delicious 😊
Nice! Thanks for sharing 👍
Wow...where is my blender?
I needed a new sauce; thanks a bunch!
I love your videos and appreciate you doing these. One of my top 3 health educators now.
the first 3 days after starting Keto I was sick with withdrawl from carbs and sugar.. Now I feel great, it's only been two weeks so mostly water weight is gone but I'll keep it up.
Thank you for this!!! For the past several months I have been eating a certain way that seemed completely crazy to my family...but it worked for me. I'm 53, have had a series of injuries over the years, and am required to perform heavy physical training for my career. By trial and error I ended up eating certain foods at a certain time...and the results were dramatic. My post workout recoveries were night and day from past...I didnt even feel like I had been at the gym the day prior! This was huge coming from someone who has had an injury seemingly to every part of their body over the years. And the timing for eating also just worked out per my work schedule. And now FINALLY I know WHY it all works!!!
Yup! Its eating pretty much exactly what you show in the vid...and I eat once a day! LOL! I have sent your vid on to my family members and friends who thought I was nuts / but at the same time when they see me / the build of my body...I'm doing something VERY right! You vid is massive confirmation...and relief (LOL)!!! THANK YOU!!!!
Me too 66 and as buff as if I were 32. A big part is that I enjoy my moderately demanding job.
When they see how healthy you are, the proof is in the pudding. And it is hard to argue against it.
👍🥰
if you need to lose weight drop the sugar. Its hard tho. And expensive.
Dear Dr. Sten Ekberg,

Great presentation, Dr. Ekberg! Thank you!! I will take all of this info onboard!

I knew I was overweight, and i was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes in March this year. Because I had watched a lot of your videos, I made a complete dietary change. I wouldn't call it keto per se, but close. I got rid of all carb based & sugar filled foods from my pantry, fridge & freezer (I let the kids have it all), no more grain products etc. I have found a low carb bread but I only eat a couple of slices per week, and some low carb crispbread. I eat eggs, bacon, beef, lamb & chicken, full cream milk & butter for the most part. I had another round of bloodtests done in June and my blood sugar had dropped from 6.8 to 4.6, liver and kidney function were back to normal ( I had previously had fatty liver issues), no protein in urine sample, cholesterol normal. I have lost 12kg in the three months, and hope to lose some more, plus my blood pressure is back to normal. The only downside is that to eat healthy, whole foods is WAY more expensive than convenient fast foods, but I have become a compulsive food label reader just to see what is in my food. I also do OMAD or 2MAD, because I decided to only eat when I am genuinely hungry, not because the clock says it is a meal time.
Well done 👏
Since you have learnt and understood how to stay healthy, you need to help your kids as well.
yeah that shocked me when she said she let her kids have it lol@@TangShuYang
Well done. For a diabetic a low carb diet makes so much common sense. I saw a video on CZcams by Dr Troy Stapleton who diagnosed himself with Type 1 diabetes did everything he was told, high carb low fat wasn't easy, went low carb high fat and went from 4-5 insulin injection a day to one. Show it to a friend with Type 1 diabetes and he went from 4-5 insulin injection a day to one in a weeks this was 6 years ago and would never change from a Keto diet. Keep it up you have done extremely well.
@@mastaflex30 Sorry but when I was a kid in 60s I ran around like crazy and could probably burn 10k calories in a day Unlike sedentary video game kids today
Crystal clear! The results you had were absolutely amazing. I have a number of friends who could really benefit from following your program Dr. Ekberg. I've been following your teachings for two years now and can honestly say I feel better now than I did in my 30's. I'm 67 now. Thank you.
Thank you @SalLazuka for letting me know. You are a real Health Champion. Thanks for sharing your success and helping inspire others.😄
@@drekberg can you post a list of the foods you ate during the 30 days? Thanks for everything you do!
@@drekberg @drekberg - would love for you to discuss "Targeted Keto" where carbs are supplemented around times of intense exercise - for us gym goers, athletes, and bodybuilders.
@@drekberg Thank you so much for all your videos, Dr. Ekberg. You are one of a very few whose info I trust completely, and bc of your incredibly clear teaching style, I have learned so much from you! And bc I live in NC, I am also hoping to see you in person at your new clinic sometime this year, if I am unable to reverse everything on my own (with your helpful videos & others, ofc.).
I have one really important question to ask you, however, before I can feel confident going forward. There is a heart doctor I once had great faith in bc he taught me about lectins, which started me on the path to healing from my arthritis! But he has been pushing the idea for a couple of years now that beef, lamb, and pork ALL contain some kind of "sugar molecule" that in our blood streams leads to heart disease, strokes and even cancer; that it ISN'T saturated fat that has been the problem, ofc, but this sugar molecule instead, after all!
And I don't know what to think about this bc I have never heard another carnivore or keto doctor or influencer even mention it, let alone refute it. And it is hard to believe he would jeopardize his own reputation by misrepresenting it! And the lack of anyone refuting it only heightens my concern!
So I am appealing to you to please mention this in a future video, or even devote a short video to it, if you have any evidence to invalidate his claim. Your help w this would be very greatly appreciated!
I will say, however, that I find it highly suspicious that the only meats that supposedly have this molecule are the ones eaten most commonly, but not goats, bison, elk, etc. Isn't that strange? It's almost as if the animals themselves, or their feed, have been genetically modified to create this problem and force the claims about red meat being cancer causing to be true. AND why would that doctor be the only one who knows something about it?
Anyway, again, thank you so much for ALL you do, and thank you for your kind consideration of my request.
@@cherylh4688 I know about who and what you're talking about. IMO, it's a bunch of nonsense. There is fanatic ideology and lots of money behind what is touted as good health practices. I'd go with Dr. Eckberg over that other advice always!
Valuable information… sad that hardly any doctor recommends this…your explanation is very clear. Thank you!
Thank you for doing this video. It helps me have a better understanding.
I love how you put yourself to the test Dr E ... thanks for all the work you do ... Health Champion :)

Stumbled on your videos while searching for info on the keto/ketovore way of eating. I am so inspired by your thorough explanation of how our bodies react to foods. Even though I just started my journey on carnivore, I have more energy and less stiffness and look forward to seeing more positive results as I adapt to this lifestyle. I am 71 years young and hope to be a good example to my family.
Do you ever get leg cramps from carnivore? Mine are terrible😢

A big thank you for your channel. I have been following a lot of your videos over the past month or so. You have helped me enormously - I have learned so much.
Dear Doctor, I see that what you're trying to do is truly educate people. May God Bless You ?!!
Living with an incurable disease is so hard, but you just have to live life day by day as it goes by (Cancer sucks)...

Hi David. I hope you feel better. Many blessings.
Hi Sten, congratulations for getting your blood work back to normal. Thank you for explaining everything. I have a query: for all your overseas viewers would it be possible for you to explain cholesterol with European and UK readings too as I have problems understanding the US system. 😊👍
Good luck with that 😂👻
Thank you! Great information😊
Great video, thank you. I just wonder if the glucose levels of 4.8, 5.7, and 3.4 were average or morning levels?
Thank you Doctor Sten for doing that risky experiment to help all of us. Another example of your passion to help others❤😊
Next time please try to regrow your hair . You know , as a doctor , that you're losing almost 40% of body energy through the head , don't you ?
What risky experiment? I ate bad junk food for 40 years. 10 days isnt risky

Dr Ekberg, I can't express enough gratitude for your mission. Over the last few months, I healed myself from many symptoms. Lost 15 kilograms, and counting. I feel at my best for the last decade or so. I am enjoying the Blood Work Course too. Regards.

AMAZING VIDEO DR. STEN!
Wow, that's amazing how triglycerides can jump just in 10 days of eating junk food 😵
Thank you for the valuable experiment!
It doesn't surprise me knowing the biochemistry.
If the mitochondria starts "spitting out" citrate everything goes wrong quickly. It's all about sugar, Randle cycle and the Warburg effect...
This is by far one of your best videos. I have been "contemplating" changing my diet for a couple of years while watching numerous YT videos from various sources. Your explanation of the blood work was excellent. I have known for a long time that I am an emotional eater who turns to high carbohydrate "foods" for "relief". I am reading a book on this topic now and because of this video I think I will be ready to make the change I know I need to make in a couple of weeks. I can surely eat vegetable and protein meals. Thank you for the Blood Work Course below. I will check it out.
Lotta morons out there on you tube , G
Hi. Sten….you are one the best Doctor in the INTERNET.. thank you very much
Thank you so much for explaining this. I don't just want to jump into anything, I want to understand the process, what my body is doing, and what to look for in my health. I appreciate you using your body as a guinea pig to help others on their journey. God Bless you sir!
I love that you explain things in good detail. It's very helpful.
Excellent and extremely valuable health content dr eckberg! Thanks so much! I love your content. Hopefully many more medical doctors would know this information you provide.
Another great informative video! Thanks again Dr. Ekberg
Thank you for this information, young Creed Bratton.
I can't thank you enough. With your help I have figured out that I am insulin resistant and have had ketoacidosis! This has opened my eyes to the kind of diet or lack of diet I was on.
I have reduced my A1c from 74 to 38mmol since the new year following a Keto, OMAD and varied fasting lifestyle - I have so much more energy and have lost 3 and a 1/2 stone. So it really does work - thanks to you and the CZcams Keto community for saving my life, feet and eyes! 😊❤
I love you Dr. Ekberg...you're terrific...ty for your honesty.
Easy to understand! You are an excellent teacher, Doctor! 🙏🏻
Thank you Dr. S. This video was so educational and really hit me where I live. Seeing your actual numbers, before and after, were impactful. I hope you are now where you want to be. You took one for the team. You are so conscientious about taking great care of yourself. Must have been a real challenge for you. It was not for naught! I get it….thank you so very much. Diane
I am posting from Trinidad 🇹🇹 in the West Indies. I have been watching you channel from Aughst of last year to now. I am happy to inform you that you have changed my perspective on diet and the way I interpret " good foods and bad foods." As a result of following your program I am off blood pressure medication, and cholesterol meds. The Doctors were confused when I told them that my improved blood work was not as a result of taking my med but because of me looking at my insulin resistance, intermittent fasting and removal of sugar and seed oils from my diet. Of course they objected to my stopping meds firvthe past 3 months but when I showed them my personal chart, BP moved from140/90 to an average of 124/ 80 and cholesterol 283 to 172 consistently, they took note. I also moved from 173 lbs to 160 without exercising. I just need to make time to exercise for maximum benefits. I have been sharing your posts to most of my friends and some started and are amazed. I am 62 years old and feel like 26 again. Thank you for changing my life and my mindset. May God continue to bless you richly for your marvelous work. Mybprofile pic is me, never did cosmetic surgery or any other procedure. My skin and hair is better than ever I feel great.
So awesome and inspiring!
Share a bit what you ate
How did you do it? Because roti is hard to resist!
Congratulations
Good video, makes much sense. I already knew most of this and have been using these principles for years and of course saw results. Sadly, currently on a bad rut (drinking too much alcohol etc, already got a little beer belly LOL). Time to turn this around with fasting and keto. Already got my keton strips ready 👍
Wow this is amazing. Thank you so much for sharing. I have just finished my first week of this eating style while in menopause so I’m looking forward to my improvements
Hello Dr Ekberg,
This is one of the best health educational video I’ve seen !
Great job as always !
I really wish you had a book series aimed at children that taught all these things in a nice simple and fun way, maybe with a workbook to go with them. I think it would have an amazing benefit to families and I would buy them all!
I just discovered your videos and I am so glad I did. I was relieved to hear you recommend some vegetables in the diet. That feels more right than just eggs and beef every day. Maybe I've just been programmed wrong, but I can't settle it mentally that an exclusively high fat diet is good for me. I am 46, probably about 45-50 lbs overweight, absolutely love carbs and sugar, and have moderately high blood pressure. I do workout and exercise fairly regularly. I am just now starting to take my health really seriously and am researching the exact right changes for me and my body. I know that cutting out sugar and simple carbs are good for anyone, so there's no controversy there. For me, cutting out breads and pasta will be much harder than cookies and ice cream (which I love). The feeling of satisfaction after a meal for me comes from pasta and bread really. I assume that there are very low carb versions of some of these things I can hopefully keep in my diet. I do love meat - but I am afraid I'd get sick of it if that was all I ate. I don't hear much mention of pork (other than bacon of course). I love a good pork tenderloin which I enjoy with broccoli regularly. I hope this is a good choice. What about extra virgin olive oil? I have been using this a lot lately with turmeric, pepper, and cayenne for the blood and digestive benefits.
Probably the most frustrating part of researching all of this is that there are doctors right here on YT with millions of devoted followers all claiming that their advice is the way to go - and yet they conflict with each other in a lot of ways. So who to listen to? The bloodwork report in this video is a huge plus and really shows the results of the various experiments. So I am trusting you and your advice.
I'm 65 and I've literally tried EVERY diet under the sun. I was astonished to learn IF I was craving sugar/carbs eating some fat (bacon, cheese, butter, prime rib fat) would quickly alleviate "the sugar cravings". I suspect this is because my body associates carbs to fat due to a long history of eating processed foods.
Try it!
Doctors' information is valuable, but anecdotal evidence from tens of thousands of people is useful too. Read comments under a video from Dr Berry, or Dr Chaffee. Notice how many obligate carnivores came from keto. Try keto for 90 days, then try carnivore for 90. THEN eat vegetables and see how you feel.
I have been fasting for close to 2 weeks. Yesterday I had 2 slices of bread, eggs and an avo. I had the worst night in a long time. I broke out in hives and I itched till woke up and bathed. I realised that the only thing I hadn't had in weeks is bread.
I have discovered this channel about March 30th and started intermittent fasting and eliminated junk carbs. I've been eating bacon & eggs for years and was stable at 216. Here it is the 21st and I weigh 205. I'm 5'11" and the ideal bmi says 160. I am not worried about getting that thin. But I feel more energized already and am going to make this a lifetime habit. I figure once I completely master this program my weight will settle exactly where it needs to be.
Thank you @bloodybonescomic for sharing your great results and helping inspire others. That is so awesome. I am thrilled that you have seen such great results. Keep it up! 😄
Yes, my most immediate effect was also lots more energy and less need to sleep. Three months later or so, I began noticing the weight loss and other effects (incl. some undesired constipation, don't forget to eat some fiber, but most were all good).
Hi Peter, I was 221 January 2022, today I am 170.6. took 6 months to lose 50 pounds and I have kept it off for almost a year. Dr Ekberg is excellent and offers wonderful scientific data! I found this the most effortless thing I have ever done... once I made the decision to give up carbs. I would like to lose 5 more and then turn it all to muscle and actually gain a little. But I am enjoying my life as a different person and that makes me feel amazing!
@@drekberg I've been wondering for a long time, can a person follow all the correct foods for a keto diet, NOT do the proportions correctly, and still get a healthy cholesterol reading? 🤔
My boyfriend is 180 at 5'7" and looks great but looks gaunt at 165. I don't care what the BMI chart says, 160 at 5'11" is skinny and unattractive. 200 is a good weight at 6' for most men. In my opinion, at your height, anything below 190 would be pushing it. But it all boils down to how you feel in your own skin.
I feel like Dr. Ekberg puts out the only content that i can never find anything i doubt or disagree with. Thanks for your knowledge, and thank you for doing these tests using yourself as the guinea pig.
Started a low carb high protein diet no sugar fruit processed foods. Day 4 and already seeing amazing changes. Down 8 pounds. I know that it sounds unbelievable but the scale doesn’t lie.
Hello Dr Ekberg, this is the first video that I have watched of yours and it was unbelievably educational. I myself am on what I would call a dirty carnivore diet because going cold turkey on sugar, carbs, veg, fruit, grains, nuts etc is really not something I want to do.
What I would love to see is a video explaining why eating fat doesn't make you fat. It's all about how the body processes and discards unneeded fats that's interesting.
Thank you again and I look forward to watching more of your videos in the future.
Thank you for doing such great research by experimentation on yourself.
Thanks for your videos. I have totally changed the way I see eating, lost some unwanted weight but more importantly am putting things in place for a healthier future, thanks to your advice!
Thank you @plumairalbannach8492 for sharing your great results and helping inspire others. That is so awesome. I am thrilled that you have seen such great results. Keep it up! 😄
@@drekberg on fire 🔥 that's a good thing by the way just shows how you are influencing people to improve their health and life!
This was fascinating. Thank you❤
Excellent video of showing cause and effect. Hopefully, this opens up a lot of people's eyes to what diet can do to your health.
Thank you Dr Ekberg for all of yours precious advice. I lost 30 pounds and I’m at my best of my life even if I’m 50 now. I like all of your videos. Keep up the good work! If more persons could listen to you, the world would be in better shape! ☺️
I've learned a lot from you Sten and have had great results using your advice. I really appreciate the way you explain how and why things work instead of just telling us what we should do and leaving us to take your word for it. I have shared your YT channel with as many people as I could and will continue to do so.
You and dr. Berg is the best on health. Keto is the best lifestyle.thanks for your knowledge.
Hi Doctor Sten. could you tell us about the Ferretin level, with this kind of food - bacon, eggs, butter and meat?
Great stuff! When people ask me how I look so good for my age, I often tell them it's my diet that is so very high in saturated fat. Lately I've been eating one meal a day often, too, and have felt *great.*
Thank you Dr Ekberg and team.
Thank you for the video. I do have a question: while transitioning from burning carbs for body fuel, to instead burning fat for fuel, how do you maintain energy levels so you can work out / function? I hear so many tell of feeling terrible on a Keto diet, until their body adjusts. One of my friends told me he felt SO badly, he had suicidal thoughts (as he got depressed). Obviously, if starting a Keto diet, one would like to avoid feeling terrible, while waiting for the body to adjust. Thank you
I believe I heard Dr Berry say the bad feeling you get is because your body is withdrawing from carbs. A bit like ‘cold turkey.’ Not 100% sure though.
Biggest reason is when you start Keto, the first 4-5 days will deplete most of the glycogen in the liver and skeletal muscles.
As you hit peak depletion, you'll notice urinating a lot more fluid than you're taking in. Don't even need to get Keto strips to test.
Salt and other electrolytes are flushed from the body with water, and since there is a lot of excess fluid being shed, same goes for the salt and electrolytes.
Compared to how most people were eating before Keto, they have flushed out a ton of sodium, and are not getting most of it from processed food anymore. Hence body/blood osmosis is flipped to a low sodium state, which has all sorts of weird effects on cells/organs/mind. If you drink more water in the phase, because you are sodium deficient your body will not want to retain that water and will excrete. And along with excreting it, more salt/electrolytes, making you more deficient, and less able to retain water, vicious circle.
Min RDA for salt is 2300mg EVERY day. Thats 1 Teaspoon of salt in your water.
Keto-flu is the moniker for this, and throwing a tsp of salt, some concentrated lemon and a magnesium and potassium supplement in a liter of water can flip that frown upside down in 15-20 min.
@@boots7859 Thank you so much! I truly appreciate the detailed explanation!
Dr. Sten, it was alarming to see how damaging a 10 day SAD diet was for your body and amazing how you were able to reverse your blood work numbers in only a month. You have helped me to keep on track; 2MAD, eating more or less what you've suggested. I have lost half a stone (prob water weight - only been a fortnight) but I'm encouraged to keep going and hopefully ease my painful hip-flexor muscles. Thank you so much.
Thank you for sharing Mr. Ekberg. Now I'm on Low carb diet along with intermittent fasting my blood work has improved.
Thank you Dr Sten Ekberg, you are doing a great job. The information you share with people who watch your videos profoundly help live healthy. No doubt, you are a great Dr and a Teacher .i love your channel, God bless you.
Dr. Ekberg, great video
It's hard to find bacon without sugar these days. That's really disapointing to me. I refuse to eat ANY sweetener. I gag with sweetener.
I went carnivore about a month ago. Just meat (mostly red meat), Himalayan salt, unsalted butter and I only drink water. My eating window is 12pm to 6pm with two meals and I fast for 18 hours. I've lost 16lbs, I have so much energy and I've never felt better.
Same here 😎👍 best sensation ever !!!
But I love eggs 🥚 and bacon 🥓
Hi, how do you prepare the meat and what do you eat to it?
Thanks in advance, Greta from Europe.
I am so thankful I found this channel. I have got a long ways to go. I had some catastrophic events in 2019 and 2020. I stopped everything, sat on the couch playing video game, watching CZcams videos (not this one, obviously), and just staring into the abyss of the internet. I ate and drank anything that could help get me numb. I pretty much gave up. I became obese and am on BP meds and recently started cholesterol meds. I was trying to start back at the gym, but my knee is arthritic and I can't walk on it for a long period of time - hoping the new way of eating will help a little bit, and one of the worst things - edema. I get up all through the night going to the bathroom now. I have been eating "right" for about 1.5 weeks, and in that short amount of time, I am feeling better. I have to keep going. I want to get on the IF, but I am not good at that - yet.
Good luck with your health journey. You can do it gradually. You still can have breakfast, like with eggs and bacon in small portion. Once you ready, you can do IF 14/10. Then improve it. God bless you.

good luck friend
With IF I found that it was easier to fast for the whole day. When I realised I wasn't going to actually come to harm, then the IF was easier. When I think I am hungry I drink a glass of water and wait 5 minutes. Its worth trying. Good luck ❤
You got this. Keep going. You owe it to yourself.
