The old saying: times flies when you are having fun seems to apply to Prof. Bikman's lectures. These lectures are so easy to listen to and assimilate.

Thabks for sharing! I am currently a surrogate and they told me the wait for surrogates used to to 2 or 3 months and now its a year and half. Basically due to decreased health of women having kids and decreased health of applicable women (normal BMI, low fibroids). It is really wild. Thanks for sharing the info!

Adipose IR for the 20% that appear to have normal blood fasting insulin and normal weight. It’s NOT fat mass in all circumstances but fat cell size (that are hypotrophic and insulin resistant) that determine metabolic health, causing elevated free fatty acids. Measuring insulin resistance at the level of the fat cell. His favourite blood - test free fatty acids and blood fasting insulin, multiply these two tests. Metformin EVEN when insulin resistance has not been confirmed is prescribed for insulin sensitivity to take place. Ketogenic Diet also for insulin sensitivity. YOH I hope I heard that correctly.

Thank you. I am concerned about teen daughter who's doctor wanted to pit her on hormonal monthly pills but did mention that metformin is another route. The only hormone out of balance is testosterone (60). But she doesn't have other pcos symptoms (slim, no acne, hair is good, but skip periods when stressed in school). I sm against unnecessary pills especially if that don't cure anything. Your video made me realize we need to do sonogram of ovaries. And possibly do keto. I am myself on keto (dr Mindy Pelz style, and regularly fasting). My daughter sees me benefiting from this and it will be easy transition for her. Is 17 y.o. ok to do intermittent fasting? Or should we wait till she is 18? Thank you!

I have a strange issue with insulin. My fasting insulin is around 20. For decades at the time of day, 4-6pm, I fall asleep. No matter if I eat high carb, low carb or nothing at all. I fall asleep sitting in my chair or I become so sleepy I cannot function, I have to sit down and then I pass out. I can't seem to stop it. I usually ate at that time through the years as I worked the 3-11 shift at the hospital. Should I skip that time of day to eat or should I eat at that time since my insulin levels are obviously already high? I think my insulin levels must be surging at that time so that is why I go into sleep-coma at that time. It really feels more like I slip into a coma for an hour than it being just regular sleep. How should I handle that. I mentioned it to my Dr. who said "Hmmm, I don't know." That was it. (My Dr. is just 3 years out of med school-age 32-very sweet, tho) He doesn't consider fasting insulin important at all. I had to INSIST on a fasting insulin level being done. I wish you were my Dr. Thanks for the videos and info.

Try to see a doctor who practices homeopathy; there are few homeopathic remedies to address this issue/symptom.

It isn't necessarily an insulin issue. Sounds like it could have something to do with cortisol.

Well, feeling how it began to shrink and eventually disappear within 2 months was so liberating. I followed the steps I mentioned, and within the first 2 weeks the bloating was gone. I simply go'ogled Tilly Strankten's Ovarian Cyst Guide and it's like I hit the feel-good reset button lol.
