- Metabolic Syndrome is the condition of having Central Adiposity (belly fat), Hypertension (High Blood Pressure), High Triglycerides, Low HDL-Cholesterol and Hyperglycemia (High Blood Sugar). All five of these things hugely increase your risk of Heart Attack and Stroke.
There are no pills or shots that can cure Metabolic Syndrome, NONE. But, there is a diet which can reverse all 5 of these risk factors, and protect you from Heart Attack and Stroke.
Big-medicine has failed to offer any solutions for metabolic syndrome, as has big-pharma. What works is fixing your diet and fixing your life. Let me show you how...

Dr. Berry, Thank you so much for preaching against the standard American diet (SAD). Following (not-so-strictly) the ketogenic diet, I have lost 25 pounds and reduced my HbA1c from 8.9 to 5.6. I’m a sociologist who studies food systems, obesity, and hunger, and what I’ve found is that the SAD is killing the middle class and starving the less fortunate. We’re not meant to eat that way. Thank you for what you do!
Metabolic Syndrome leads directly to Chronic Disease, Suffering and Early Death...
KenDBerryMD I'm afraid I'm eating too much fat... Is this possible? If I am eating fat every day why will my body ever need or want to use my stored fat? If anyone can help me understand this I would be grateful. I haven't lost a pound in over a month now despite training for a 5k and trust me I have plenty to lose...over 60lbs at least
David David yes by about 200 calories per day
Stacy Stalone, check his other videos. He has a couple videos that talk about if you can eat too much fat and about weight loss stalls.
Stacy Stalstone Hi. Have you taken account of hidden carbs? Are you eating many meals a day or snacking often. Try intermittent fasting. Please write down exactly what you eat and exactly what the carbs are. it will surprise you.
KenDBerryMD Hi. Love your videos. Do you have the studies on vegetable oils? I got rid of all my seed oil.... and Coke Zero....😢
An MD and a nutritionist. This guy is the best.
Dr. Is 100% correct! Within 1 month of quitting sugar and reducing my carb intake...my BP dropped from 145/90 to 120/80.....my fasting glucose dropped from mid 90’s to low 80’s......my weight dropped from 202 to 190.....in a little over a month! Give your body a break,,,,if you cant quit the sugar and carbs,,,,slowly reduce them. 👍
Well done.
Thank you thank you thank you for this video! No one has ever broken it down that way. This is exactly what I needed to hear
You are one of the few channels I set to notify me on your new content. Thank you for your straightforward approach to Keto.
learn something new every day
love the informative no BS vids you make
Thank you Dr Berry. From a senior who’s fighting to stay active....
Thanks for the video. I’ve been doing keto for about 6 weeks but low carb for about a year and have lost 50 lbs. since going full keto I have thinned out without seeing a move on the scale and have gotten a little discouraged. I initially started changing the way I eat because I wanted to be healthier for my son that was born in 2015. I think I lost site of why I was making changes and worrying about the way I look. This video helped me realize that again by you listing out all the diseases that a obese lifestyle can bring. I appreciate your videos. Thanks again.
Wowza. Bought tears to my eyes. Yeah you! You are not going to just bring healthy eating into your life...but your whole family and the people in your realm as well as your baby will all be gifted with food as healing/health.
I really appreciate your clear friendly talks which are hugely helpful.
5 for 5... and yet I've never heard of this. I only came across it yesterday whilst doing my continual research into my illnesses. My PCP has never even mentioned this, let alone diagnosed me with it, even though I clearly have been dealing with this for years. Longer than I've been going to him. Thanks for all the information and suggestions, Dr. Berry. I'm so grateful I can come to your channel as a source to steer me toward health. Thank you so much!
Same!
I am grateful I stumbled onto your videos. Thank you.
Thank you for spilling the beans.
THANK YOU for all your videos!
Thank you Dr Berry and Neisha
Great info doc! Thank you for teaching and educating.
Following this type of diet with IF really helps! My A1c was 6.5 last fall and now is 6.2 and I got off of Metformin. The numbers that need to drop ore dropping and I have lost 12 pounds. I still have a long ways to go with my overall health, however, my doctor and I can see progress!
Did u take yourself off metformin once you reached A1C at 6.2? Or did doc tell you to stop taking? I just got put on 500mg of metformin but am also trying to control with diet.
Once again you have posted something I needed to know!
Thank you so much Dr. Berry. I think I am currently exiting metabolic syndrome. I never had one Doctor correctly diagnose and explain the destructive thing going on with me. You opened the door to understand this. Again, thanks!
This talk is so good!
Watching from Naperville Illinois
Big follower and appreciate your information. You tell it like it is and we get it!
Thank you Dr. Berry.
Thank you so much for this information. 👍👍👍👍👍
Brilliant explanation
This is exactly what my labs indicated my last labs, 4 out of the 5. The reason I started Keto. I am giving it my 100% Keeping my total carbs under 15. I am IF everyday most days Omad I am feeling better already. I want to . I am still trying to figure out why Dr. So and So says , concentrate on protein and the fats that are with it. Then I am hearing concentrate on meeting my fat macros. I respect your advice and the research you put into all your videos..I am totally committed. I just want to be doing this right...
Thank you so much Dr. Berry you're videos are helping me so much.
Omgosh, this all makes so much sense...thank you Dr. Berry 🙏❤🙏❤
OMG, I have all five. This scares the crap out of me.
Thank You doctor,you made a LOT OF SENSE!
Thank you very much guy, for this very useful video clarifying very important crucial points regarding two diabetes. I really appreciate your kind effort which has been helping me fight against that illness.
Thank you so much !!! You helped me 🙏
this is a very good talk! thanks and i am sharing this now!
Wonderful as usual Dr Berry. Anything comming about neuropathic pain in feet. Will Keto repair already damaged nerves?
Great video, it is a symptomless disease until it is too late, it has taken me 2 years of intermittent fasting and eating Keto, and only know am I seeing the results, I have reversed type 2 people should realise that it is not a fast fix, it has taken you years to get to this stage, and for some will take a few years to get out of it.
Hi matthew, were you on meds the whole time or just used diet only?
@@LillyLigaya only diet, but I am still t2
this is a very good one good info.
Thanks Doctor.
I am hoping to get off high blood pressure meds, have lost 27 lbs so far in about 14 weeks
Congrats.....it happened for me. Off two BP and two Statins with my cardio Dr. blessing. He said "your life style changes are working and that can't be disputed" Keep going you will feel so much better.
Good job! Keep at it! I reversed my metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes!
Sandy Adams It works. My bloid pressure is averaging 115/80. Please make sure you check yiur bp often and get regular reviews of meds.
that is my goal, off my two BP meds . Good job
I've lost almost 60lbs & have gone off all meds but omeprazole. I'm tapering off that now.
Oh I have this for sure. Have ALL the markers.
Thank you very much doc.
Absolutely love your videos. You, by far, are my most favorite source of information about the ketogenic diet. I pray for you and your family daily because you are helping all of us who are fortunate enough to have found these videos.
I am 63, have been doing keto for 5 weeks, am type 2 diabetic, and my A1C dropped from 8.4 to 7.7 after 30 days. But, I am not losing any weight. I plan on eating this way for the rest of my life however I wanted to know if you have nay additional suggestions? I do have metabolic syndrome, all of my fat is in my midsection, I do take Metformin, I do try and do the proper macros, etc. Losing weight would be a bonus and help me stay motivated. I am not currently exercising. Is this the culprit?
Switch to carnivore diet. The small part of veggies on your diet could be the problem.
5 weeks is not too much time, you put all your health problems trough your entire life. The body response and heals sometimes fast, sometimes slow.
I can tell you’ll won’t need to take metformin if you’re are in carnivore diet because there is no sugar in protein. I prove it myself with the glucose meter.
You need at least to start to walk, the body needs movement.
The inflammatory oils are one of the hardest things to kick out of my diet. I'm going to have to learn to make the basic things I buy that include them (mayo, ranch, etc.). Keto has changed my life and is healing my body. It's time to take it to the next level.
Keyla Parker
A food processor or mixer stick can be very useful. I am in the same situation.
Thank-You Again Soo... Very Much !!
Thanks dr berry
I am learning so much from your videos. Thank you so much for taking the time to share your knowledge with us. Quick question...is it bad for kids to eat grapes, oranges and apples? I looked up the nutrition and all of that has lots of carbs and sugar like bananas.
Dr Berry, Can you address Ehler-Danlos and other connective tissue disorders and how Keto may impact a patient with a CTD? I have EDS and have been on keto 3 months. Lost 40 pounds so far, but my pain has doubled.
I have Cushing disease and my body produces too much cortisol. I've been doing the keto lifestyle for 3 weeks and I absolutely love everything about it. I've noticed that all the swelling in my hands, feet, ankles, and lower legs are completely gone, but will the keto lifestyle help me with fat loss? I'm unsure because of the adrenal issues and the excessive cortisol in my body. And can Keto possibly help reverse cushings?
Nice video.
6 mo Keto, just had blood work. My numbers are better but not there yet. Frustrating but at least moving in the right direction.
Life saving!!! Thank you! I am very grateful for your videos! I've followed your advice and cured myself! God bless you!
Dr Berry can you recommend any treatment, supplements, or book related to curbing carbohydrate addiction?
Thanks so much for doing this video. It's a great overview but one questions: Is it possible to cure Metabolic Syndrome, or can you only put it in "remission"?
hi Dr Berry, i have been doing the ketogenic lifestyle with about 20 carbs, no whites (sugar, flour, pasta, rice, etc) since 1 March . Yet my blood sugars fasting is around 110.
I do intermittent fasting, no snacking. 2 meals a day, had most of my thyroid removed due to a goiter about 30 years ago. I am not hungry throughout the day, so fasting is no issue. Now I am hypo thyroid, yet I can’t get any thyroid meds since my standard tests come back „normal.“ i have all the classic hypothyroid symptoms as well as adrenal fatigue . My blood sugar is about 110 fasting and I have a pharmacy of supplements trying to cure myself. Currently I am 60 pounds overweight, I have lost slowly 15 pounds so far but seems I am hitting a plateau. My waist is 41 inches, it’ was 45. it seems the weight is coming off my legs and some off my hips, I am a Apple shape. When I eat my belly swells up. Can you please give me some idea what I should eat for thyroid Keto foods and to crank my metabolism . Very frustrated, I do walk about 30 mins a day and stay busy moving through out the day.
Well, it would seem that I have Metabolic Syndrome, but I didn't know it until I watched your video. I can check off all five of the characteristics you have stated. I've just started on Keto, and it seems to working quite well so far. I was wondering if you have such a thing as a maintenance plan, or do I just keep eating this way even after I have reached my goal weight?
Gail Moniz you should if you don’t want to gain back the weight and be back at square one. Maybe go low-carb but that can be a slippery slope, carbs cause you to crave carbs, healthy carbs is key I think.
Can you please do a video about cooking with lard? Thanks for sharing all your wonderful information 😊. We started cooking with a good quality lard I found on Amazon and we really like it and I heard it is good way to get vitamin D. Do you know anything about this?
Just getting started with your channel. Love your information. Simple to understand and solid lessons. Q: My husband cut his hand on Sunday, required a trip to the ER for several stitches. When he first went in his BP was 188/? when all was finished & he was stitched up they re took his BP it was 173/106 (two hour time span). He won't go see a doctor so I told him I would make a deal with him...2 weeks keto diet and if he didn't drop a significant amount in his BP he was going to the DR. He agreed. Well, here's the actual Q: As per this video, he has the belly and elevated BP. Without knowing a single number for cholesterol/triglycerides etc.... Is it safe to assume they are out of whack and he not only would have Hypertension but also borderline (if not actual) diabetes? Am I safe starting him here on Keto as opposed to waiting over a week to get to the Dr office? Thanks I appreciate your help.
I am reading into this that this is in addition to meat? Thank you
Take him to a doctor because the high blood pressure has to be under control (see the dash diet, or the Mediterranean diet)
Dr. Berry...thank you for your wonderful, and very informative, videos. They are much appreciated!
Question...as I was doing the "new" measurement to calculate my health "risk" (I think you told us about it)...which is your waist in inches divided by your height, in inches...I was wondering how to account for bloating. I am still healing some digestive issues (9 months on keto), and I am bloated most of the time (although not as much as I used to be!).
How do the inches added on my waist due to bloating (only an inch or two), factor into this calculation/measurement of risk, please? Thank you very much. Blessings to you! Jan.
Ty very interesting video my dr just gets mad bs high more insulin was low carb, went back omad 24:1 9 days feel better will continue to get healthy
I can’t stay on a Ketogenic diet. It is too expensive for my food stamp budget, and I always feel thirsty for sugar, presumably fruit. But, overall I have cut down on my carbs and increased my fat intake. I go on fasting mimicking diets occasionally. Those are Ketogenic but do not make me crave for fruit. Improvements are slow and painstaking. In one year, my A1C went down from 6 to 5.6. My triglycerides went down from 362 to 230, and my HDL went up from 40 to 60. That’s not a cure, but definitely an improvement. Judging by that, I know your advice is good. Dr. Gregor wrote about how not to die from diabetes, but those people were taking insulin. Insulin is not prescribed for metabolic syndrome. He also referred to a study of a in vitro experiment that showed a droplet of saturated fat could kill a beta cell. Also fats within our cells contribute to insulin resistance, hence my daughter thought I should go fat-free. I’m sure that dietary saturated fat does not translate into saturated fat getting into our cells.
That’s amazing your A1c from 8.9 😮to 5.6. I have a 5.9 A1c which is borderline( I was freaking out at this) I have been supplementing , IF, restricting added sugars and grains etc. I can’t wait to do my blood work on A1c, doc was suppose to order but forgot to add to lipid, CBC, metabolic panel. But, my lipid panel improved drastically other than my HDL actually dropped 2 points?!? Buuutttttt, my triglycerides went from a 233 back in October to 96 today 😊
The biggest problem I have is going over to BF’s or Mom and Dad’s with all kinds of bad food lying around. I try to explain to them that having this around is no different if I was a recovering cocaine addict and they had plates of cocaine sitting around. People just don’t get how strong the addiction to sugar is. The first step,imo, to alleviate the diabetic/obesity epidemic is for these baby formula companies to TOTALLY reevaluate the ingredients. Did you know that Breast milk is 52 percent fat and that formula has zero fat in it??! Smh!!
@ Dr Berry can you do a video on keto and bruising easily .
Do you have this talk in print?
Are Chia seeds good for you?
I find they take away my hunger cravingsaway. I have metabolic syndrome and working on that. Also noticed you don’t even mention exercise on keto or carnavor.
What about cold-pressed mustard oil? Is it healthy?
Thanks so much. I have a question: if someone has hemochromatosis, can they do Keto and intermittant fasting?
Dr. Berry was is metabolic health?
Thanks Doc from Ohio
75 years old. Doing keto for 1 1/2 years. Lost 25 lbs, felt better the first week. All of my blood work is better and in normal range but the belly fat is still there. It has not budged. Very frustrating. Help.
I have PCOS and insulin resistance. I’ve tried Keto 3/4 times following a meal plan all bar one of these attempts. I lose water weight in the first week and not an ounce after that! 😔 I just can’t seem to shift the weight
Hi! Was looking for your women's health playlist? Im 57. Hypothyroid. Menopausal. Arthritis. HPB.
Where do I start, please? Keto? Carni?
Will raising body core temperature help?
If so...how?
Thank you!!
I have all these maladies, from following what the experts have told us is the best way to eat and live❗
Thank you. However I hsve so many other diseases, fatty liver, mass on kidney, enlarged spleen, high blood pressure, glicose over 100, epilepsy, toxic mold syndrome, lyme disease. Im 52. This is ridiculousness.
I have been doing the keto diet off and on a few months now. I'm really trying to stick to it because I have hypoglycemia and I feel so much better with the keto diet. I guess my question is since I have hypoglycemia is there anything I should be aware of on this life style of eating?
Hi, love your videos. They are so informative. I am a 51 yr old who has had RNY gastric bypass surgery 3 1/2 years ago. I had a 20 lb regain and started following the Keto diet 2 weeks ago. I first week I lost 7 lbs and feeling really good. Now the weight is up and down 1 or 2 lbs. just don’t know what to do. Carbs are under 20 grams a day. Fats are around 80 grams per day and protein at 50 to 60 grams. Any suggestions?
Robin I am experiencing the same results, it’s really difficult to continue. I’m just hoping at some point my weight will go down and not back up. I’m not cheating and have no cravings . I am 76 don’t know if that matters but I will continue , Lord please help us both to lose the weight we need. I have discovered I have a shin bone. Lol but want a waist again.
I have been on keto for 6 months, I have/had metabolic syndrome (not sure when this goes away, I have lost 75 lbs) with the darkness on the back of my neck, it is fading but is there a timeline where this should go away completely?
What is a normal fasting insulin level for a 59 year old woman? I can only find conflicting advice. Mine was 34.7, keto 19 weeks with 26 pound weight loss, no other health issues. Just trying to determine what I am shooting for!
I feeling good for get good metabolic . Feel better and live better.Thank program for to get good metabolic
Dr Berry what type of Keto diet should you do if you have high cholesterol which you trying bring down and reverse pre diabetes at the same time?
i am working on both of those issues what is working for me is a ketovore diet. diabetes is getting way better yes my ldl went up a bit but so did my hdl(good cholesterol } and triglycerides are coming down. I eat between 10- 15 carbs a day
Please help me, Shelly Tiedemann's was going to show you my blood work and all my meds but I forgot to tell her one very important thing everything started down hill when my galebladder was t@ken out should I be taking bile salts ? What can I do to reverse this train wreck
My feet are extremely swollen, I recently got osteoarthritis, I've never had that happen to me. I have a dr appointment coming up, but they don't like to teach keto

What is the difference betweeb obesity and metabolic syndrome? Thanks
Does the saxenda weight loss drug help for metabolic syndrome?
What are your thoughts on commercial bone broth
Doesnt matter really.
I HAVE GILBERT SYNDROME...IS IT POSSIBLE TO FOLLOW A KETO DIET?...I AM A BIT CONFUSED ON WHAT TO EAT..
Just had all my labs done and my hdl is 42. I eat the fat from meats, coconut oil, avo oil, and butter. Can I do anything else to increase it or just have to wait it out? I've been keto for three months.
Dr Berry saved my Life 😇
NW Florida 🌴Love you and Neisha.
Pyscotropic medications cause metabolic syndrome. I take 3 psychotropic medications and they definitely contribute to metabolic syndrome. It’s very frustrating cause I exercise and eat healthy. However, I did have the most success with the ketogenic diet. I need to get back on keto asap
Do you have any information on IF and the keto diet helping COPD? I would appreciate a video, if this could help. I don't know if I could get my brother to try either with a "it couldn't hurt approach.)
For lots of people that's just a way doctors say "you have too much fat tissue crushing your wind pipe at night." So, you have to reduce the adipose tissue there and however you achieve it by whatever means you got it. Goodluck!!
What are some tests to determine metabolic health? I have asked at my doctor's office about metabolic health, but since the doctor/nurse practioner was out I didn’t get a good answer. I am not over weight and I follow keto/carnivore diet. I just want an overall health picture.
What about Grapeseed Oil? It's supposed to be healthier than Olive Oil or is that false?
Does taken statin drugs for colestoral throw off the KETO diet effects ??
Michael Palermo, Dr. Berry covers statins in a couple of his other videos. You’d have to go watch them to find it, cause I don’t remember what their titles are. All of his videos are fairly short tho. I’ll be going off mine once I finish this last script.
I was diagnosed with a non-alcoholic fatty liver 3 years ago. I happened to be on Keto at the time and lost 60 lbs. Well, I got derailed by other medical issues going on, have had 4 surgeries over a two year period and gained 30 back twice, lost it. Keto didn't work, so I switched to Carnivore and now I gained 35 back, have insulin resistance and Metabolic Syndrome, Carnivore won't work either and yes, I hard core have done ITF too. I feel like I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place. I know that carb creep was my down fall and I don't' mean processed food or anything like that, but fries and wine, chocolate. I take full responsibility for that. I have cut those out...wine being the hardest. It's only been a week, so I'm trying to learn as much as I can to see what else I can do. Now, due to multiple medical issues, hard core exercise is out, I can only walk about 10 minutes, but I am going to start swimming and bike riding(if that is possible with my issues). I have added in some more supplements. I guess I'm just mad because I was 12 lbs. from my goal 3 years ago and now I'm 42 lbs. from my goal. Look, I was nearly 300 lbs. 25 years ago, so I have lost over 130 lbs, not even including all the times I gained and lost over the year, probably 2 people. I've come too far to give up, but I feel close, so I guess add in depression on top of all that.
Most important they are talking about this diet good effects but not about side affect. So well balanced diet and whole grain its necessary to restore your metabolism after keto. A lot of vegetables good carbs and exercise you and everything will be good. They all only want to sell keto brand. I know many cases including myself because i was on the low carb diet and my metabolism completely changed.. good luck everything will be good
Question, my husband and I tried to fast from 11pm until 8pm the next day with only water and coffee with half and half, we were eating dinner and and a small dish of berries for dessert with a latte. My husband started to look haggard and very low energy and I found I was eating to much at dinner as I was ravenous. We are night owls, hence the late dinners, we rise at about noon, I was a night nurse forever never got out of the habit, so anyway, I started to give us breakfast, usually 2 eggs and bacon or chicken sausage with coffee around 2pm and dinner at 9pm with the latte after dinner, are we giving the fasting time long enough to be beneficial? Also he is not over weight I am and since I've been keto-ing I've not lost much weight at all, it's extremely frustrating, a pound up and a pound down day after day. I'm thinking I need to boost my exercise, what's your opinion?
I have all 5
In the past, many medical individuals would not explain how, what, and give support; they would just say lose weight; some would mock!
How can i know if i have an inflammation? My bloodwork comes all ok.
