    Summary for sustainable weight loss: 1. Low Carb diet, 2. Intermittent Fasting, 3. High Intensity Interval Training or Simply Brisk Walking, do not over exert till your body is stress out. 4. Stress (breathing exercises, meditation, mindfulness, sleep), 5. Holistic lifestyle. (You should be happy losing weight and not be stressed chasing after weight loss)

    Dr. Ekberg, deserves a Platinum Medal for his channel. I've done personal research on health and fitness for over 30 years. Not only does he know what he is talking about down to the little details, he connects the dots and adds the missing parts that are needed in order for one to understand the big picture. In addition, his empathetic and well prepared delivery of such complicated information makes for a much easier assimilation of the knowledge. Outstanding!

    Dr Eckberg. You hit the nail on the head. I am 58 now. But I remember until the age of 12 I was eating EVERY DAY my breakfast SOLELY with 7 grain bread and MAINLY with brown sugar, sometimes jam. NEVER meat and almost never cheese. I was VERY active that time. Driving every day many kilometres with my bike constantly at full speed. In school my teacher always complained why I was constantly hopping with my feet. And I was the lightest and strongest of my class. But when growing older I observed brainfog was slowly but gradually setting in until a point I observed that I was about 48 years old but I lost lots of my abilities and brainpower. I also lost my job back than. If it was not for realizing this in time I would certainly going downhill much more. After changing lifestyle I was stabilizing for few years. But thanks for the knowledge from you and Dr Berg I am really recovering now from my depression, overweight and brainfog.
    Thank you Dr Eckberg.

    I've been counting calories on and off since 1973. Each time I dieted I lost weight, only to put it back on and at a higher level. I did this most years. By the end of last year I was prediabetic, with a heart condition, and on 6 medications, weighing in at 254lbs. I had always tried to do low fat, high fibre and exchanging saturated fat with PUFA margarine. I was ill from water on the lung. Then I read Robert Lustig's Metabloical, Jason Fung's Complete Guide to Fasting and Gary Taubes The Case for KETO. Since January I am down 44lbs to 15 stone, I have stopped 4 medications, and my A1C is back to normal. Kill the carbs before the carbs kill you.

Was able to sustain this without starving or feeling bad & hit anther plateau. Now I am not feeling well, my stomach has hunger pains now worse than ever.

      @@jtedandlindasimpson7044 You don't mention if you had a dietician to guide you or not. Also, have you visited a doctor for your stomach? From personal experience I can tell you that no diet is perfect for everyone because we are not copies of one another. I had to lose 6 kilos and I had blood sugar and cholesterol over normal. My theroid was behind them. I also had serious stomach problems and I had gastroscopy. I needed therapy. Mastich capsules help but don't solve the problem.
      I had a dietician who gave me different diets but pointed out I had to release stress. A balaced diet helped me in the end. And movement.What I found out myself was that the morning coffee with some coconut milk helped my stomach, after breakfast of course,while plain coffee caused acidity.Don't eat heavy meals late in the evening, as well.

    I went on a fitness forum to get some advices to lose weight, and they were all about cal in/cal out. When I told them that it also depends on metabolism, hormones, and that 1000cal of carbs are not the same as 1000 cal of proteins, they all laughed at me and said I was dumb and I should just exercise more and eat less ( even if I was already eating 1000cal per day and no carbs ).

M I blood pressure qas creeping up. I always felt I was borderline type 2, and avoided a lot of sweets and processed food because of the way I felt after I ate it. I never ate breakfast because it made me feel like a flat tire for the rest of the morning. I think these habits helped me get a good start.
    I started watching your videos towards the end of May. By the beginning of September I have lost 42 pounds and I feel great! I am doing this with my doctor's supervision. (he is doing keto too so I didn't get any objections from him) My blood work taken in June was amazingly good. Fasting glucose 78. A1C 5.5. C Peptide .65. It was a little rough at first becoming fat adaptive, but that was short lived.

So I do that. Working on changing my diet but not actually dieting; it is about changing the regular diet completely. I think it will take time. Really getting a lot from this post. Thank you.

    It's amazing how you provide so much information in an understandable way. I've tried a lot of "heathy diet" advise and it's interesting how the body adapts. I cut out a bad habit and my weight drops but remains on the same level no matter how much extra exercise I do. I drop another bad habit and the same thing happens. When you remove the body's enemies, it tends to try to function correctly again. I've lost about 23 kg (~50lbs) this way, the majority of which were from changing eating habits.

      Thank you Nikolay Egov for sharing your experience and helping inspire others. I really appreciate your feedback. The purpose of my channel is to explain things better than other channels and help people understand the principles. I spend so much time on it because when we get "the why" and the mechanism we become empowered for life . Comments like yours makes it all worthwhile. 😄

    You are a truly gifted teacher. This explanation is so clear and easy to follow. I love your new "white board" visuals. I truly appreciate that the presentation of this vital information is done in a non-judgmental manner and does not dump all the blame on the weaknesses and gluttony of the individual with insulin resistance. Thank you for explaining that there are scientific reasons for what I am experiencing and have been working hard to improve over the last year and going forward. This video confirms so much of what I have witnessed on my own journey and provides some new ideas and priorities to implement moving forward. Excellent work!

      Absolutely! A much clearer picture for me. I have recently retired and finally have the time to investigate food, vitamins, body organ functions, exercise and pay attention to my BP and what my blood tests reveal about my health. I find this Dr's video amazing as it brings a lot of what I have learned, about each area on other individual videos, together! He brings it all together and helps me understand my journey to better health more completely. Much appreciation ...

    I've done a lot of research over the last 5-10 years. This Dr. Ekberg really knows nearly everything how the body works, nutritionally, emotionally, structurally. I can't really find any fault in anything he says. He's inspired me to give the 18-6 IF a go, so far-so good.

    Thank you for the extensive but at the same time simple explanation. I always try to “convince” dieticians and doctors that they should include the emotional aspect to weight “loss”, and do not call it loss. I used the Incantation that “I am getting rid of what my body does not need”.

    Dr 👨‍⚕️ E. - you are a wonderful person. I am in ketosis and at age 59, I weigh 220 pounds. I once weighed a whopping 289 pounds many years ago. In 2019 I was down to 204, but put on 30 pounds over the 2 Pandemic 😷 years. In the last month, I’ve been able to drop 10 pounds. It’s difficult, but my health is at stake.

    Dr. Ekberg, as always, you are one of the outstanding communicators of a holistic approach to wellness. For me, I am very interested in the competitive athlete part of your background, as I played high level professional tennis in the 70's and 80's. The keto'ish approach with intermittent fasting has been part of what I have been doing for 7 years or so. I also regularly lift weights to maintain and increase my muscle mass. I teach tennis so I have have a great deal of light exercise. I row normally for 30 minutes at quite a stressful level and have switched to HIIT based your instruction. My stress levels are fairly low. AND I CARRY TOO HIGH A LEVEL OF BELLY FAT. I have about 11% body fat and almost all of it is in my gut. So in terms of the "last 5%" of the puzzle, I am rather lost. Certainly mindfulness is a crock. Certainly breathing's effect is negligible. I am not decrying this but I am trying to generate the last push. So, it seems that (1) perhaps monthly 3 day water fasts could be tried (2) lower weight, higher rep weight training sessions (3) for me the hardest one of all - low energy, long cardio sessions like (God forbid) walking or rowing at zero effort in order to keep the heartrate (yikes) low. Am I on the right track in my thinking? Thank you for all your work.

    Excellent and accurate presentation! Thank you for shedding light on so many aspects of lifestyle and actually bringing it all together! I am an executive functioning coach and as such know a good deal about stress and cortisol, but I still managed to learn how it affects the body and weight gain, not just the brain and EF.
