I will start the sardine fast and monitor. I had been eating ribeyes and eggs for 4 weeks. Goal is to reverse 44 years of insulin resistance. I am 5'0 (started at 127lbs. Now down to 117-119lbs). With skin tags, cherry angiomas, a persisting lower belly, eye floaters and near sightedneess (started recently), heaviness of legs sometimes, i did fail the finger print test on tibia.also a cyst on R upper back (it is shrinking). Ive been feeling amazing on ribeyes but i want to follow your protocol and truly reverse insulin resistance. I so appreciate that you just share this information. I thank you from the bottom of my heart. I feel like i am not alone anymore. I was vegan and then Mediterranean. I am a physical therapist for 22 years now. I want to be healthy for my son.

4. Aerobic exercise. It is never mentioned here but read the scientific literature. Aerobic exercise (45 mins 3X week) fights and even reverses insulin resistance, in addition to increasing fat oxidation. It in many ways, it is the opposite of "gaining fat effortlessly" because your cells are need that glucose for energy and will use it first, before it uses fat. Keto is just shutting down one of the two metabolic pathways (glucose and fat) nature gave us to survive in different environments. The Inuit survived for thousands of years in Canada and Greenland eating practically no carbs.

I really appreciate you showing the importance of measuring! Other influencers seem to discourge measuring which, to me, is bad advice with no scientific basis. "How you feel" is not telling a person much of anything, although it is important to learn how to be intouch with your body. After all, most people that come to ketogenic diets are sick, looking for help. There is nothing wrong with measuring in any case and only provides a better understanding of what is happening. And, an undisputable fact is, if you do not measure, you do not know. Coming from an analytical profession where measuring was critically important, I am a measuring geek!😊

Dr. Boz, I am newer to the Keto lifestyle and just hit about 4 months and lost 50lbs. I have chosen to make this my lifestyle and you have been a great influencer and reinforcer for me. I personally love your family values, adherence to the Christian faith and let’s just say I appreciate you for a lot of your thinking! 😊. With that said, I’m not sure if you have covered this, but I’m curious how medications, OTC or prescription can affect ketosis. For example, I suffer with rosacea. Keto has helped a ton, but sometimes I do need to go on medication and I don’t want to mess up what has been such a disciplined Keto diet. Keep up the great work and I hope to meet you someday at upcoming function. God bless to you, your husband and your kiddos. Have a great weekend.

I had the best metabolic function and was the slimmest doing healthy keto; however, as a menopausal woman, I have read that a high fat diet messes up our microbiome. What is your recommendation for women 60 and older? Thanks!

[@YeshuaKingMessiah]

The reason to eat early is to put the insulin rise from ur meal(s) in the morning rise from cortisol that u produce to wake up urself up & energize u for ur tasks! Ur going to have that morning rise no matter what, so use it to ur advantage and make it rise a little higher THEN than to give another lg insulin rise from a meal btwn midafternoon to bedtime. Ideally- Eat Early It takes time to get here but have this endgoal in mind. We are set up to eat dinner in our society, that’s when we socialize too; nighttime. So u have to learn how be w/others eating but ur just having an iced water w/a lemon twist or a decaf w/some cream or butter. I used to eat OMAD mid-late afternoon, make dinner for my family to eat at 6:30ish and serve & sit w/ them but not eat. Ideally eating brk and no food after noon would be key but I was so broken that my metab still changed enough for the first 55# to come off. Well, I did do weekly EFs also… But the next 30# would have had me moving my OMAD to morning. (Life happened, capped by a death and crowned w/Lockdown 2020 sigh)

Very clear instructions. But my basic problem: I do not sleep, if I ate hours earlier. If I eat I can go to sleep in 15 minutes. If my stomach is not full I stay awake till morning. It has been like this for 50 years. A year ago I stopped eating carbohydrate and since then I lost all the extra weight I had gained in the last 6 years (about 20 lb) . But now I do not know how to continue. It is difficult to live avoiding all carbohydrates and I can not fast longer than 10 hours. I loose all the strength and feel terrible. Also I had to stop eating fat alone because I have a strong diarrhea of it. So now I eat meat, vegetables and dairy. But my cholesterol is climbing up. I could use a special advice with many thanks!

[@Panniva]

I'm not a doctor or researcher so take this with a grain of salt, but the way I understand it from watching videos from the infamous doctors supporting keto/carnivore, low fat diets are actually a cause of gallstones. The low fat diet means that the bile stored in your gallbladder doesn't get used in the digestion process, and because of this, the bile sitting there over a long period of time begins to solidify into gallstones. I myself have gallstones and have opted to wait and see if carnivore will dissolve them without the need for surgery. The explanation from these doctors makes sense to me though, so I have a good feeling it will.

Thanks doc 🙏 😘 😊

Please tell me what you consider to be “high fat” foods. 😊

[@moniquejackson7741]

Fantastic video. I need help, Dr. Boz. A year ago, I did strict Keto (under 20g) for six months. The first three months my lower legs and feet swelled, were bright red and tender, and I slowly started sweating more. With the hot San Antonio summer, I was on fire with constant burning in my legs. Back on carbs and a year later, the swelling and redness are gone, but I can still get burning on hot days. I can't find anyone who can explain why this happened and whether Keto may no be for me.

[@DoctorBoz]

Likely a neuropathy… almost always caused by years of increased blood sugar … I’m sure your doctor will explain fully

[@Species710]

when ate high fat, low carb, I didn't lose weight. when I ate high protein and low fat, moderate carb, I lost weight

[@shingtome2179]

I dont know what to do at this point.

It’s almost like people’s bodies and metabolism’s are different and you need to find what works best for you…

[@TWilsonSquared]

This approach doesn’t resonate with me. First, it’s seems like a one-size-fits-all, hack-based, overly-complicated way to live. I went Whole Foods, plant based a year ago bc I was scared to become like my mom who has type2 and heart disease. I was always health-conscious, running daily and still my cholesterol was up to 201 on the high fat, low carb, moderate protein diet! After just 3 months whole food plant based, A1C went down, triglycerides went down, bad cholesterol went down. I’m never going high fat again. No thanks. I can eat all kinds of carbs, fruits and veggies, vegan proteins and no processed foods (meaning no oils, but whole food fats instead) and I feel better than ever. I just think people love hearing the great news that fat is good, but for my body, it wasn’t good. The Mastering diabetes guys, Dr Barnard, all kinds of other really good researchers show that increasing insulin sensitivity means detoxing your cells from lipid saturation (high fat). So, there’s way more science to this medicine than just seeing what happens when you eat a carb or when you eat fats. The cells have to be healed and then they easily respond to smaller amounts of insulin without needing the proverbial battering ram that is increased/injected insulin. If their science is correct,high fat is how you would actually increase your insulin resistance, sorry to say.

@@TWilsonSquaredinsulin is a storage hormone. How do people lose tons of weight on keto if it’s causing insulin to rise? Because it’s not 🤷🏻‍♂️. You do however still need to be in a caloric deficit to lose weight, no matter what diet you’re on.

[@user-tn1xv1vc2d]

They say that people are generally over weight that have Type 2. I have Type 2 and I'm not over weight throughout my body. I have Belly Fat but that's it. I'm not overweight like other people that are on the obesity side. My legs, arms, and rear are on the slim side. So I don't understand why I have Diabetes. Can Bellyfat cause Type 2 Diabetes?

I was not aware of a keystones measuring system, (strips and monitor)

[@moodberry]

Can you expand on how exactly to use the formula of glucose divided by ketones? Consider me math challenged. Should I do this only once a day, or during the day besides just the morning?

[@linda.ll.7744]

✅FRONTLOAD THOSE MEALS!✅ The first time anybody's ever told me that! With PBC, CKD, Hashimoto's, and IR... this information is GOLD! And here I've been eating when I'm hungry. Which isn't 1st thing in the morning. I'm changing my eating schedule TODAY!! I will let you know how it goes. THANK YOU DR. BOZ!💚💚💚

We NEED Continuous Insulin Ketone Glucose Monitors...

[@terrifictomm]

My fasting insulin is between 16 and 20--whatever the units are that insulin is measured in. Micro-units per mililiter (µU/mL)

[@kathyanderson9462]

How can I get the prescription for the monitor patch for blood surgar

[@floid33556]

Keeping protein lower to keep insulin lower causes loss of muscle mass. Last time I did this I lost weight, but also lost 30% strength. Now I’m doing lion diet, but my fasting glucose is still near 100 and ketones are low. Do you have a way to compromise?

[@nowon7379]

Stop eating carbs period😊

[@billbucktube]

Good to know‼️

[@rickparma]

My DBR is in the 100s and today jumped to 1000 I’ve been eating straight carnivore for a week straight!!! My glucose has been under 100 all week but my ketones are .1 .2 I’m trying to build muscle and lose fat so I’m hitting my protein and still eating fat. Yesterday I had a few peanuts and pistachios in the evening and it went to 1000 this morning. How do I get more ketones

[@dennisbeacham5747]

Does high fat elevate your cholesterol levels?

[@christafart4202]

Type 1 here. Facts..

[@modelsupplies]

My husband was type 1 and used to do this. I had no idea the damage it was doing 😢

[@skyboy1956]

Type 1 means your body destroyed all the insulin producing beta cells in your pancreas. Probably caused by consumption of cow milk.

Can uncontrolled Type 2 Diabetes turn into Type 1 Diabetes?

Not working for me. Been high fat low carb 2 yrs. When i try raising fat i get horrible acid reflux. My morning ratio goes from 35-90's. Trying to balance electrolyes is a challange too. Cant afford the products out there so trying with food. Frustrated as my belly fat wont budge. Trying my 3rd sardine fast now.

[@cecilialara9414]

Can you eat canned oysters for the same effect?

[@bily4566]

What about cortisol

[@MWear-x8t]

Can you do high fat if you aren't doing keto? Can the fat still be used for energy if you eat a small amount of carbs. I seem o need 100-150 g carbs. Did keto for three months, was very good about doing it right, but couldn't sleep and had too many electrolyte issues no matter how many I took.

[@DoctorBoz]

Nope. The carbs trigger insulin … Step one = lower carbs.

[@scottburkhart6953]

I'm confused. I am insulin dependent (or at least I have been told that), and I started Keto about 75 days ago, give or take. My A1C dropped dramatically from 7.2 to 5.9. If I need insulin in combination with metformin, at what point do I start to consider ceasing taking insulin and metformin. How would I know? My prescription is for 20 units of insulin daily, and 1000 mg x 2 of metformin daily. I wear a CGM so I know my glucose up to the minute (excluding lag time). I guess my question is, "What am I looking for in my readings?

[@winstonsmith3690]

[@darrendempsey3190]

So should fasting be afternoon to morning rather than fasting through breakfast? (Because of the morning spike in insulin?)

So what times would you put to eating for someone who goes to sleep at 4 a.m. and gets up around noon and first meal being around 3 p.m.
