[@guerita0815]

If you have good diet and good skin (genetics, skincare,etc) then your skin will snap back; no face lift needed. Also, the speed of weight loss can affect that. I have lost 40 pounds doing keto/ IF and my skin snapped back, my abdomen and face. I had stretch marks and creoiness, both of which drastically improved. You would think that with weight loss the crepiness would worsen, but not with doing keto.

This falls firmly under the category of "I wish I had known this when I was younger." Knowing this information could have saved me SO many doctors visits and health problems. Just one important thing to point out : insulin resistant people can sometimes be quite slender when young, but then suddenly gain a lot of weight in their 30's and 40's. This was my scenario, and it took me years to understand that I'm prediabetic - even though I've never had a problem with my blood glucose in my life. Interestingly, when I asked doctors about my uncontrollable weight gain they all immediately measured my blood glucose and pronounced that diabetes wasn't the problem. Not one of them measured my insulin levels.

Grinding teeth are the body's innate response to the need to recycle minerals (not exclusive...so is biting, chewing, eating fingernails). When I learned this, and did things to increase mineral bioavailability from meals. I've been studying health, nutrition, and diets for over 20 years, and I started with the Weston A. Price Foundation. We are a family of 5 and my 3 children were grinding their teeth so much that they would wake me from their bedrooms that were down the hall from mine! Within 2 days of serving and eating the exact meal that Dr. Price prescribed in one of his experiments, cod liver oil, high vitamin butter oil and grass fed organic raw butter, 4 ounces of fresh squeezed orange juice (or tomato juice), fish broth/seafood chowder, and raw grass fed milk .... within 2 days of eating this meal...ALL 3 of my children stopped grinding their teeth, my husband's tooth stopped hurting, and my migraines from clenching just vanished! My children had 6 cavities between them... I postponed their appoinments for fillings and kept the W.A.P. meal up daily for 60 days... we then went to the dentist and.... Not one cavity was to be found. I kid you not. I'm not saying you have cavities... I'm just pointing out... grinding is a means of recycling minerals... because either there is not enough being takin in, or not enough is being absorbed.

Dr Boz, I want to tell you about Cod Fish livers, packed with even more nutrients than Sardines, and much tastier than Sardines. The livers taste like Tuna, the oil it comes packed in is it’s own oil, and is loaded with omega 3 fats, vitamins, A, D, E, potassium. We always hear about salmon, mackerel, herring and sardines for their fats but none compare to the actual Cod fish livers. You eat the liver chunks, drink the oils and you can eat it alone, spread it on crackers, toast, mix it with mayonnaise, mustard, make a tuna like sandwich spread and eat it that way! Better tasting than sardines.

I don't even need to measure my ketones anymore because I feel the benefits.

And now when I see obese people (and of course know that they probably have metabolic syndrome) I feel very sad for them and think wow I used to look like that.

Wow, that's a real transformation. Your bone structure was hidden, even though you weren't huge. I was 154 lbs when I started changing the way I eat on 29/12/22 Or 70.5 kilos. Now I'm 64 kilos, still going, my face hasn't changed though, I don't think there is bone structure to die for under my weight loss though.

I’ve been having a half arsed attempt at this for a few years but lacked the discipline and enjoyed the beer too much to be fully committed, which of course makes the whole endeavour a bit of a waste of time. However! I stopped all booze for six weeks now and the very low/no carbs is easy for me as I’m well practiced in that food wise at least, so now without the alcohol I actually am low carb and the different is of course incredible! I’ve also known this was the final piece of the puzzle and I should have known better as s Doctor myself but nothing beats personal experience! We’re human too after all!

[@Piano-Love]

I have been able to do 60 hr fasts but my emotional dependency on food is the hardest part of the experience.

[@idab6864]

I totally relate. As a kid I wasn't fed enough and so I have a weird attachment to over eating now as a result.

@@idab6864 There was no shortage of food in our house but at the age of 12, I experienced some trauma and became withdrawn, turning to food for everything I needed emotionally.

Hi Dr. Boz this is really good video, and I must say you look beautiful and your skin is flawless And you are definitely right about the high insulin leading to the skin not looking good that is me my vitamin D level is a 12 and I have a puffy face, so it looks like fasting is the is the key, and cutting the carbs, I lack energy and I stay cold, my weight is at a plateau.

I dont mean to sound rude. But it just doesnt sound like much support in the support group if you dont go around an atleast ask every1 to introduce themselves. Its very supportive to show support to new people. I do however see how 1 learbs alot from others. But that new B could have alot of time under there belt with keto also, but if u dont allow people to share no1 knows. It made me feel that ones are more impkrtant than others. At other suppirt groups ive been too we treat the new B very special. So the continue to keep coming back. We need this keto lifestyle to GROW for people i would hate to have some1 leave feeling excluded.

[@godstendermercies6394]

God wants none to perish but all to come to repentance. It's not about being perfect as this world deems perfect. It's having believed on who Jesus Christ IS and humbled ourselves to a godly sorrow for having sinned against our Living God. Confess and forsake sins past and go justified by faith to go and sin no more. Not by strength but by His Spirit. It's having His Spirit and His heart of flesh to will and do of God's good pleasure. God says be ye perfect as He is perfect. With man it is impossible but with God all things are possible 🕊❤️⌛️

Holy crap… I have had Acanthosis Nigricans since I was in 3rd grade… I’m 45 now… I love 75 lbs… not doing strict keto but by eliminating sugar and carbs for the most part and exercise. I did notice this has gotten lighter but hasn’t disappeared. I thought it was melasma.

How can you decipher acanthosis versus melisma? It’s definitely gotten better with the weight loss.

When I initially lost 30 pounds I lost half a shoe size from no longer being water-logged. Gained a ton of weight over the plandemic, and shoes are tighter again, along with all of my clothes. Even though all of my blood tests have showed “normal,” fasting glucose has gone up over the past few years, and I am definitely insulin resistant to a degree. Good news: I recently got a one month script for Dexcom G6, pee strips and keto Mojo. Starting my Keto journey. Love you Dr. Boz!

Dear Dr. Boz, a Godsend & sweetheart, I'm 68 yrs old with a bad heart valve and hyperinsulinism, IR and 100 lbs over weight. I did the Sardine challenge with the group and I wasn't near as successful with 4 lbs of weight-loss, only 2 lbs... but now that I'm back to regular keto eating with salads 🥗 and such. (So happy😂) But this is my favorite tid-bit takeaway. I am now eating sardines for one (1) meal during the day, and I feel SO good, so satiated. 😅 with Frank's hot-sauce and fresh lemon juice, its quite yummy! This is a game changer because many days, I am stressed about what keto meal to fix, what to feed the family etc. Now, I settle down with my sardines, which gives me very happy vibes and tons of control. I'm down 28 lbs & never looking back! 70 more to go. With this sardine hack, it will be MUCH easier. 😅🎉😊 .

I go on and off a Keri diet. My face looks so healthy whe I’m on keto. My weight fluctuates between 143-150. When my weight hits 149/150 my face looks so puffy, my skin gets saggy, my eye bags look awful. I feel awful. When I’m in ketosis my skin tightens up. After menopause, I can even feel the difference with the tightness of the skin of my ear lobes, and other non mentionable areas.

the Austrian Medics still try to sell instead of insuline restistance the - fat metabolism disfunction an cholesterol lies... - after i have had an heart attack they tried to lie to me because they didnt know im very well educated- better than any univerity can do - i trapped them right when i was still in hospital and i have had a very awfull discussion about statines also - which they would give anybody but not to me - im still not suicidal to take statines....the Primarius was dismissed by myself - he have had oxigene problems (breathing issues ) after talking to me :) most people who dont care but trust thoose criminal Medics will take anything they put to them and will be there for the rest of their lifes. My decission was to switch my diet to Carnivore to get rid of my self-diagnosted insuline resistance ! Doc i love your work. We must be much more carefull when we go to Doctors. Dont trust them just by standard - just because they have a PhD. - it means nothing at all nowadays. Austria is very terrible when it comes to treatments - they still reside at stoneage methods. Since i am Carnivore i have much better sleeping qualities, falling asleep very fast and having more energy - but my brain - jeeez my brain is now a supercomputer ! I believe standard diets make people stupid not just unhealty

Ive lost 110 lbs in 12 months. Now its 12 months and 3 weeks and im down 113lbs..i have about 15-17 lbs more to lose. The hanging fat is crazy. Like forget wearing a sleevless shirt or a Bathing suit 😢. Ive had my DBR consistantly 25-35 doing OMAD almost all the time . When im fasting beyond 48 hours ive seen a DBR of under 20. Ive done 36-72 fast every so often. Like every other week...ugh the thought of doing eight 72° fasts eight weeks in a row to change the hanging fat makes me feel sad .ugh😢 but im going 2 have 2 try it.

[@Changeworld408]

i understand yr pain, the autophagy which i haven't yet been in consistantly as it requires serious fasting, could really improve the skin issue, don't do the surgery even if you don't like the looks of the loose skin (i totally get it) you could do talks at schools for young children to avoid going through what you went through from eating and drinking crappy food) show them what they can avoid . at least you don't have to carry the extra weight and you are avoiding type 2 diabetis, cancer, alzheimer, autoimmune disease, inflammatory diseases, high blood pressure...

[@dorsetboronia6744]

Dr Boz how come you need dental work when you are in good ketosis. Keto, especially carnivore keeps my gums and teeth healthy. My main point today is the sardine fast (72 hrs) has given me histamine intolerance. It is extremely disappointing. I am Omad Carnivore. I now can’t eat meat so am existing on eggs till I can work out what to eat. I implore those who are contemplating the sardine fast, Be careful regarding this. I will never be healed of this. Now have yet another autoimmune. That makes 8. WHAT! Life is misery for last 2 weeks. It started with imbalance. So fell over a few times. Now have constant 24 hours allergy symptoms ……. Yes night and day!!!!!

[@zenyattamondatta7757]

Could you please explain how a 72 hour sardine fast gave you an autoimmune condition? I don't see how eating something highly nutritious could hurt you, unless you already had an existing but perhaps unknown allergy.

[@mij9520]

Did you reach autophagy? Did you do the wild sardines in olive oil by Costco? What was your DBR (Dr. Boz Ratio)?

[@dorsetboronia6744]

@@zenyattamondatta7757 A 72 hour sardine eating only to the exclusion of any other foods enabled the autoimmune condition histamine sensitivity to raise its ugly head. I ate 3 tins per day, so 9 tins of sardines. I enjoyed them. Otherwise I would not have continued. However apparently tinned sardines are high histamine. I have many other autoimmunes. First I got were alopeci and hashimoto’s thyroiditis about 10 years ago. Autoimmune diseases come in clusters. Since then I suffer from 7 and now due to my sardine fast it is 8. It happened very suddenly. I didn’t know I was on the verge and would get it if I flooded my body with too much histamine. The symptoms worsened when I ate meat. Meat has histamines which increase with age and freezing. In other words the older, the worse it is. I am carnivore for 8 months. So am now in a really bad place. I think anyone with many autoimmune diseases need to be warned about sardines histamines. I have never had any sign of allergies of any kind before.
