Learning from Dr. Ekberg I startet going on a journy to experience my body better and better. My body gives such clear messages about what is good and what is bad which I had actually my whole life and now I learn more and more to understand those messages. I´m so greatful for all you do, Dr. Ekberg. And thank you, dear body of mine for talking so clear to me now and sorry for all I´ve unknowingly done to you my whole life.

@@drekberg Absolutely! The understanding of WHY eating (for example) 'reduced fat yoghurt' is so much worse for all of us than the ordinary /normal 'full fat' one is a lifetime lesson in not flooding one's body with excessive amounts of insulin - which piles fat on, locks it away and then engenders hunger!!!

[@paulfaulkner6299]

@@shapienails3067 Hi Shapie. In short, anything with the fat taken out of it will have had some form of sugar (carbohydrate) put in it in its place. eg Low fat cheese - avoid like the plague! We have cave-man bodies. If it was around (meaning the foodstuff you're considering eating) thousands or just even hundreds of years ago (excepting any form of bread) you can have it in your diet. If it was "invented" within the last 60 or so years, leave it alone because you can bet your bottom dollar it will be bad for you !!!!

A well-presented lesson on how Keto works from the master himself! What a great video to recommend to everyone who asks me what changes I have done to my lifestyle! (I’ve lost 55kg = 120lbs, and trust me, everyone asks!!) Most who are as obese as I was, at BMI 40, pay little attention to the contents of the food they eat and do not even have the skills or interest to decrypt food labels. At this stage macros means nothing, as you or the signals from your body cannot tell the difference between healthy and unhealthy “food”. All that matters is to eat something that fills your belly when you feel hungry and you want it to taste good and be cheap! (because you are always hungry and want to eat a lot!). Exercise is just stressful; you risk injury if you over do it and going hungry is just torture! Low Carb “Dirty Keto” is a great introduction to a what you will experience from a healthy, “low insulin” diet and make you realise that your battle is not with fat, overeating or lack of exercise but with insulin resistance! Results are next to immediate! You truly do not get it until you feel the changes in your own body, which from thereon will the key motivator! Once your hormones and taste buds start working again, what you want and need, will naturally become different! You will feel great and be full of energy! Moving forward to healthy fats, whole foods and intermittent fasting is then something that will come naturally and will take things to another level!

Eating carnivore has been a total game changer for me. I'm 47 and I've been fasting about half the days of the month. I lost the same 5 pounds over and over. Also, my sleep was never great while fasting longer than 24 hours. I had about 25 pounds that crept up over the past 2 years and have felt like my body was no longer mine. My blood pressure sky rocketed and my blood sugar was in the pre-diabetic range. I felt hopeless until I heard about carnivore. I decided to try it and within 2 weeks I lost a pants size! I am now a month in and I am down 10 pounds! I'm not even exercising. My waist is so much smaller and I'm not bloated all the time. My arms even seem like they are getting firmer! I feel so good with this way of eating. I eat fatty hamburger, ribeye steaks, eggs and butter. Salt and pepper for seasoning. That is all. I can't believe the change in my stomach area....it has not been this flat in years!!!! I have had a few cravings and did have a day when I ate a few pieces of stevial sweetened chocolate and another day when I had a bowl of whipped cream... But I'm still losing!!! Just wanted to share.

Dr. Sten, your videos inspired me to start a low carb eating life-style. It started by replacing a meusli+milk breakfast with 2 eggs, then less and less bad carbs. At the moment I do low carbs, around 18:6 IS (skipping breakfast) and 1 x 24hour IS per week. I live in the Middle East, so I do not have access to all great quality products, but try to do what I can within budget. I do not specifically count carbs, proteins and fats but I try to keep to the 'formula' of high good fat, moderate goodu protein, lots of good veg + salads. I do only low key excercise at the moment, working towards more and more excercise, main focus is not to get injured. I am a 52year old man, 1.73m tall and initially weighed 83.5kgs. Today, 3months after the journey started, I achieved my initial target of -10kgs. It charged my life. I feel 100% better than before. I feel alive.

I added a vibration/oscillation plate to my workouts. It has 60 levels for vibrations and 60 for oscillations and each can be used by itself, thanks to two separate motors. I stand on it, sit on it, do pushups, squats, single leg squats, waist bends, crunches and isometrics by pausing at different positions throughout the exercises, and I swear my strength has improved very quickly. When I first started, I was sore for several days just doing simple movements. I read several articles that said the vibrations and oscillations work the muscles constantly, many times per second, even when you're just standing on it and keeping your balance. Well, they were right. After one month using it everyday for 30-60 minutes each day, the results were incredible. I purchased one named Bio Quake, which was around $200, weighs 45 lbs, and it is very sturdy. Some of the benefits are: weight loss, increased strength, improved circulation, reduced swelling, reduced joint swelling, draining of lymph fluid build-up, toning and building muscle, and improved flexibility. I never used one before, but I am a firm believer now. Combine that with Keto and it is a conditioning winner.

[@HarvardBob]

Great video Dr. Ekberg. Your teaching style is unique among all the excellent YT keto channels. It combines a very accessible framework of knowledge with practical examples. For so long we have been told by our doctors “just do this, or take this pill”. Part of the problem is the sad state of nutritional knowledge required of doctors and time constraints. Most med schools still don’t teach even the basics of nutrition. And much of the dietary industry is in the pocket of the large food corporations. I learned many years ago as a young engineer in manufacturing, you build quality in through good design, materials and processes. Our “sick care” industries are built to apply expensive bandaids to broken people following unscientific advice most often provided by the companies and industries that make huge profits “treating” chronic lifestyle diseases. Why would they ever want to change? It is up to the individuals to educate themselves, and their doctors. And to spread the message in a supportive non-judgmental fashion family and friends. I would love to hear more about how you got started on the path to studying medicine and nutrition.

[@drekberg]

Thank you HarvardBob. I was always interested in figuring out how to perform better. I quickly realized that medicine had nothing to offer in terms of improving function. Chiropractic was a hands on way to improve function immediately, but as I got into Chiropractic school, I soon got my eyes opened to how important mind and nutrition was in addition to structure. Wayne Dyer and Deepak Chopra were some of my early influences.😄

Doing IF and keto for 3 years, lost 40 lbs. Last month, I started OMAD, because I was not able to lose weight anymore, and I still need to lose 30 lbs to get my regular expected weight. My waist started to shrink week by week, feeling great again! I eat at 7 P.M., and I consume various types of cheese, veggies, soup, salad (no tomatoes or things high in carbs) but with olive oil, and 2 handsful of pumpkin seeds everyday... counts about 1000-1200 calories. I am happy!

[@drekberg]

[@gingebrien2408]

Dear Dr. Eckberg, on most levels I am in total agreement. The issue of organic and grass fed is where you loose me. When we look at grass fed who is checking to say it’s so. There is so much marketing in this area. Additionally, meat marked as American may very well be coming from South America, Canada, China etc. As long as it’s packaged here in the United States it can be labeled America. Unless one personally is purchasing directly from a farm and checks the feeding and process grass fed may just a way to up the price.

[@elaineeastman1908]

You just cleared up what I think has been stopping my weight loss, even gaining weight...and that is eating too much added fat! Watching other videos was confusing about the fats. I love how u go into detail to explain the logical truth in a simple easy to understandable way. Just what I needed. Thank you Dr. I REALLY LIKE UR ELECTROLITE POWDER FOR FASTING TOO.

I have learnedt so much from you in less than 3 months on diets, foods, fat, and exercise educations. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and insight.

[@murraybrockway6540]

I made pizza with flaxmeal in the crust and my 89 year old mom did better with her memory the following morning. (You can make low carb pizza crust if you wish, but I did whole wheat in keep the insulin response reasonable for me. Keto dieters might want to use almond flour, chickpea flour, cauliflower, etc.) She won't eat fish anymore and usually turns down fish or algae oil EPA and DHA supplement. What is key for ALA conversion to EPA and then to DHA from the EPA is limiting omega 6 to a reasonable ratio to ALA. I do this by not consuming oil most of the time. Skip the oil and eat whole and minimally processed foods (could you make it at home?). I think flax seed chewed well or ground fresh is the ideal keto food. Purchased flaxmeal should be refrigerated after opening.

[@daleinada4306]

Thanks Dr. Ekberg, Prior to this video I thought Keto was meat only. Being mostly a plant eater I am inspired!

[@mrcraftsmann]

Ok, how about lard ? It`s a forgotten food in the west, but central and eastern Europe still uses it - things like salo (unmelted pig lard, salted, sometimes smoked, eaten as a snack, with onion , garlic, bread), smalec - melted and stilled to a paste with graves, to smear on bread. Lard is also often used for frying, or to "grease" boiled buckwheat. Lard+groats, or lard+pea/beans was very popular medieval and renessaince food in central Europe. Often eaten with onion, garlic, and soured vegetables (cabbage, cucumbers, beetroots, etc)

[@wolfgangreichl3361]

You're one of the few people on the internet - as navigated by myself - to acknowledge that people are actual individuals. I get upset every time someone proposes the same diet for a petite 16 year old as for a 200 pounder of middle age. While I don't, concerning myself, agree with everything you say - mostly, I guess, because you are citing US statistics that don't neccessarily apply to German food and prevalence of health issues - I have been and intend to continue following your videos. I've been on keto and intermittend diets for some time - with some, but then again only limited success; I'm now beginning to understand the foundations of these diets - and my mistakes - and see an actual chance for success. Thanks!

Great video! The last fat you mentioned, Saturated Fat, is currently my favorite. I mostly eat grass-fed lamb and beef fats (from local farm store). I buy them raw and cook them myself. My sand second favorites are regular grass-fed butter and Ghee (from local farm store). And then last come coconut and olive oils.

Thank you Adam Khan. Not an easy one. All I can suggest is that you go slower in reducing the carbs and make sure you don't starve yourself. Anytime you change something your body has to adapt to the new situation.😄

[@adamkhan402]

Dr. Sten Ekberg. Thank you for your quick reply. I am consuming healthy fats and quality proteins, also very little carbs come from berries, nuts, avocados. My 4th week on keto and all of a sudden I am experiencing anxiety and panic. Maybe my body is stressed out and has to be adapt.

[@EvaMariposa]

@@adamkhan402 if I may share from my own experience, when i started keto over 3 years ago, i used to get heart palpitations the first couple of months. Increasing my magnesium helped me a lot. Especially with muscle cramps & quality of sleep. I used to take 200mg twice per day (morning & at bedtime) Make sure you stick to the diet. Don't go in & out of ketosis. Your body needs time to detox & adapt. Usually after 2-3 months you'll be fully adapted & will feel totally energized. Also regarding the loose skin, weight training will help but depending on how long you were overweight, how much weight you lose & how fast, some loose skin is inevitable. But i've noticed over the past 3 years, my skin seems tighter overall. If the loose skin is around your belly, it may not fully disappear, but think of it as your "belt-of-glory" 😉💪
