welcome back everyone we have another

show we have a lot of people in the

green room ready to ask some good

questions

anything that i say is definitely not

meant to diagnose or replace your

medical care

check with your physician before

implementing

any of this advice

all right steve let’s dive right in okay

we will we’ve got uh someone from

vancouver i think one of your old haunts

that um that

you like very much and she’s in the sort

of movie business and all sorts of

exciting things and she has an audience

behind her that are very much in support

of what she’s doing the doggies and so

and so listen uh susan you’re on with dr

byrd

make sure you unmute yourself dear

okay

oh sorry you you unmuted then you muted

yourself again click it once more

one more time you got it yeah that’s

perfect okay i’m good you’re perfect oh

fantastic thank you so much dr berg i

just i want to thank you

what an amazing product it’s so

important i love it

it has changed my life i i just i

believe so much on what you’re doing um

so my question today

uh first of all i am intermittent

fasting and healthy keto love it have

the book i’ve got the meal program

i’m trying to figure out how to do this

like for the rest of my life and sustain

it so the big things for me are morning

coffee

and after work that glass of wine that i

used to have and so kind of the morning

the first question is in the morning

coffee

you say one cup

can i take it and dilute it and have

three cups in the morning is that going

to affect my

uh insulin

you know it’s not going to affect your

insulin i think if you can handle it if

you sleep okay because i think the

biggest problem with the caffeine is

um if your liver is really strong and it

can detoxify the caffeine and you can

sleep

go for it but if you start

having affect your sleep then we know

that’s the issue so i think even with

myself because my liver um is not the

healthiest in the world or wasn’t the

healthiest now it’s much better but if i

do more than a cup it definitely starts

affecting the sleep so

no problem there i can drink it until i

go to bed so that that number one thank

you for that i loved hearing that uh the

other one is the glass of wine and i’m

using your um electrolyte powder i’m

looking for something when i’m making

dinner at night i’m my my i’m i’m

fasting in a 20-hour sort of thing so

four-hour window

i want to have something to drink while

i’m making dinner

what do you suggest

right

well

you know i probably wouldn’t do it every

day and the problem is that the it’s not

even the carbs it’s the alcohol inhibits

the liver for making those ketones

so that’s one issue

and then

what you could do and i would try this

as a substitute i would

um get some

kombucha tea okay and

don’t drink the whole thing just drink

half of it it’s it’s almost the same

tech uh consistency is like

some carbonated

alcohol beverage and it does create a

calming effect there’s a small amount of

alcohol

but make sure it has the lowest amount

of sugars because sometimes they they

really don’t leave it out you know it

might be a pain in the butt but

right now i’m making my own kombucha tea

and you should try it because

you can leave it out for even longer and

have those microbes eat up even more the

sugar and it’s like very very acidic but

it’s uh it gives that nice um good

effect to your gut because of all the

lactic acid

and it can actually kill two birds with

one stone it can

make you feel like you drink some

alcohol but without drinking it and then

also

it has the benefit of the digestion

perfect thank you for that i love it

okay if i have can i get one more minute

stephen and i talked about this

what about my dogs

should i be intermittent fasting my dogs

yeah you should you should i think um

you know two meals sometimes even one

meal but

dogs don’t need these snacks in fact i

think that’s the problem with a lot of

owners of pets they start feeding them

all these snacks like they don’t need

that they’re not designed to have

frequent meals oh okay good that’s fun

but there is some you know as far as dog

food

i would highly recommend getting um

uh i can’t remember the the brand name

but it’s like organ meats and stuff it’s

not this

vegetarian type soy and corn and wheat

that they give these dogs so it’s

another point and then you said you’re

from vancouver british columbia i am

originally dallas texas but i live in

vancouver

wow that is probably to me one of the

most beautiful places

that i’ve been it’s just gorgeous clean

so i do remember visiting that area it

was just like wow what the heck is going

on here it’s just amazing it’s true it

is so beautiful and it’s just more

beautiful with what we’re doing i tell

everybody about the intermittent fasting

i think the work you’re doing in terms

of the the cancer prevention and curing

as well i think there’s a key there it’s

so important i’m so glad that you’re

doing this and thank you hey i i just

want to be known for curing cancer and

i’m just being very sarcastic

frankly i’m not so i think it’s

incredible what you’re doing and i think

you are on that path so

yeah well i tell you just have to be so

careful um when you start mentioning

that c word so you know we’re just

basically um

referring people to

you know various uh websites they can do

more research but yes that’s very

exciting data very exciting data i’ll

i’ll mention it for you it’s cancer it’s

incredible

okay

thank you so much thank you thank you

for having me on the show sure

well we got her first because she’s

dealing with all sorts of hollywood big

shots so she’s going to go back online

here shortly and

get them all on screen for us so thank

you so much susan from vancouver we

appreciate that

and dr berg why don’t we kick off our

first exciting quiz question here it is

okay

okay what is the only two

foods that do not trigger insulin

all right audience climb on that

and here’s an interesting one i i’m not

sure that everyone adopts the right type

of keto so kh from youtube i have been

on keto for two and a half years

but i’ve developed lactose intolerance

and can’t keep eggs down since going on

low carb my liver now needs attention

i’ve gained 50 pounds

and developed lymphedema

where has she gone wrong on the keto

approach

it’s really hard to evaluate that

because

you know there’s

when you do just keto which really is

just low carb okay it’s just really low

carb um

it’s not a clear definition

it allows for a lot of other ingredients

that can be a problem the benefits of

just doing a low carb are huge

but if you also in addition to that do

the healthy version of the ketogenic

diet which i recommend

you can get a lot of other health

benefits and um

i would highly doubt you would ever

develop more allergies or intolerances

or even lymphedema if you did that but

i don’t even know what else you’re doing

but i will say with lactose intolerance

if you could find some area that you can

get

raw milk and actually get the raw milk

kefir

or the raw milk real raw milk cheese

you may not find that you have lactose

intolerant because there are microbes

that make

lactase which is the enzyme to break

down lactose

so um

so there are microbes that are making

this enzyme and when you pasteurize it

you kill off those microbes so guess

what you’re gonna get you’re gonna get

lactose intolerance so

that’s something to investigate and

watch my video i just released it

recently actually was it yesterday or

yeah i think yesterday

that’s very interesting

and i tell you what later in the show

we’re going to go to moheb who’s from

tunisia so he’s

not from these parts in addition to that

we’ve got people coming from the uk

canada dominican republican saint kitts

i haven’t heard that one before the

bahamas bahrain lebanon greece chile

indonesia the netherlands ireland turkey

uganda brazil somalia south africa

france from

romania excuse me

aristia uh oh they caught me he caught

me on one erit teriya who knows but

ethiopia denmark oman

germany macedonia nepal japan pakistan

dubai nigeria and all across these

united states and i know that terry’s

fingers must be swollen from typing all

that stuff in but that’s really truly

amazing

uh and you know well it’s time it’s time

to do a road trip and visit all these

wonderful places well indeed and you

know uh we had a staff meeting i’m not

going to go to the details but all i can

say is that boy dr berg’s show is

exploding all over the world and the new

um

you know level of um

people subscribing is just unheard of so

obviously

the word is going around that what dr

berg

is recommending or talking about is

really working and i’m certainly a

advocate and

benefactor of all that stuff so let’s

see well i’ll tell you i i will tell you

the secret

for subscribers is

don’t ask for people to subscribe and

smash that like button i just hate that

when people say that and all these uh

these

these uh youtube videos will tell them

to smash that like

if the people are gonna sign up and sign

up if they’re not there they’re not

going to sign up but i never sign up

when people tell me to do that it’s like

tell me is the information good it’s

going to help me great i will sign up

very interesting hear that youtube

purveyors for goodness sakes okay let’s

see mary veronica from youtube my poor

friend has gained 60 pounds she said

everything went haywire after menopause

and now has a has become a diabetic

with thyroid and arthritis issues would

your apple cider vinegar drink help her

a little bit a little bit

the problem is the cortisol

increases when you have menopause in

some women and then the cortisol then

mobilizes

um your proteins and it increases your

liver’s

making sugar so your liver starts making

sugar and you start turning proteins in

the sugar and then you start getting

atrophy and and it just kind of goes

downhill so there’s a lot of

things that i’ve talked about in videos

related to menopause but you really have

to support the adrenal gland of course

on top of doing the basic eating plan

and i think you’ll you’ll feel much

better if you do that but

but

during menopause that oh the ovaries go

into retirement but the adrenal glands

now have to produce the same hormones so

if they’re stressed then everything is

magnified

interesting okay well guess what the

audience found your question interesting

and they’ve answered it and it asked

what are the only two foods that do not

trigger

insulin

80 percent said

fat and fiber 10 said green vegetables

and green tea and 10 say celery and

lemon are they on to something dog

they are on to something and the answer

is

fat and fiber wow now i’m not talking

about the like the fiber in

whole grains or added synthetic fibers

i’m talking about like fiber from

vegetable and um

so

and then fat as a pure fat so what

what food combinations would be a good

combination to consume both fiber and

fat

if you’re trying to keep your insulin

low

well what about

a salad with olive olive oil that would

be a good one or maybe celery with

peanut butter

or even

more tasty yet some raw cream

and whipped into whipped cream and then

some blueberries which has some fiber in

it so these are just things that you can

add to your

diet

either as a food or dessert whatever

that will definitely help you keep that

insulin

lowered in addition to other benefits

that’s incredible i had a big bowl of

blueberries they’re great in north

carolina they grow a lot of them here

and with heavy cream and it tastes like

you’re cheating your brains out but alas

you know steve steve you should take it

one step further

go to real milk.com i’m sure there’s 40

i think 43 states that now you can

get raw milk through various

methods

legally

and um

make whipped cream out of raw cream

from grass-fed cows

talk about

you know this the fat in the milk has

loaded with vitamin k it has the enzyme

that has the fatty acids it has um

all sorts of things for the immune

system but it also has something else

called the waltzin factor which is

anti-stiffness

very good for arthritis rheumatoid

and specifically it

it really helps people that have

stiffness in their wrists

for some reason but the waltz and factor

it’s called um kind of like a

interesting

chemical that actually can a chemical

compound that

helps you make your own cortisol

naturally so it’s it’s very interesting

i’m going to look it up well i’ll tell

you though you know after you have a big

thing of cream and blueberries you sort

of brace yourself for that horrible

twinkie shock that used to happen you

know when you have eat terrible stuff

and it just doesn’t happen you remain

peaceful you’ve had a nice

uh you know final part of your meal that

is my dessert that and strawberry

sometimes uh with cream and uh my

cholesterol numbers aren’t up i mean

good grief uh there’s something to do

and else the the other interesting thing

if you want to do an experiment check

your blood sugars um

and um

if you have that salad

before the meal with olive oil uh and

vinaigrette whatever

um you will find regardless of what you

eat your blood sugars

will be better with that fiber the fiber

tends to buffer these other foods

and

that’s just another little

trick that you can use to help keep your

blood sugars even lower than they

normally would so that’s another

you know because i do i always recommend

a salad before you eat so that’s just

another tip steve just make mental note

i’ve uh i have my mind is like a steel

trap i’ll never forget it

and here’s the next question

[Music]

all right so

which is worse

a high carb diet or

snacking

for weight loss

just in general

if you compare those two actions

what would be worse

all right dig into that audience poor

suzy from facebook says please help how

do we prevent bad breath while fasting

if you do the healthy version of the

ketogenic diet and you’re doing the

ingredients with the you know the

high amounts of chlorophyll in the

greens and things like that

you shouldn’t have that occur

uh especially after you get through the

adaptation phase

so i’ve not found that um and if you if

it does occur then that means you

probably need some more probiotics so a

good sauerkraut would be good or maybe

even a good kefir

plain

would be good so

um

i’m experimenting with kefir right now

so i’m going to create another video on

it because

it’s a

it’s an interesting uh product that has

so much more um

microbial life than yogurt and it has

the combination of the friendly yeast

and the bacteria and um if it’s from raw

milk but you could really um help

with that lactose intolerance with your

digestion and you don’t need much

so

stay tuned

very good paula from youtube i’ve been

following your she says advice it’s not

it’s uh information for a year now and

i’ve lost 15 kilograms so it’s at 30

something pounds on one meal a day i

probably eat too much cheese though and

have hit a roadblock in my weight loss

should i cut out the cheese to see

better results

it’s not a bad idea

especially if it’s

pasteurized from pasteurized milk but

there’s a whole checklist of things that

i i talk about on a lot of videos when

you get into plateau number one make

look look at your carbs revive the carbs

make sure you’re um

you’re doing enough fasting maybe do

more fasting make sure the quality foods

are there make sure your sleep is good

make sure your stress is good make sure

your digestion is good all these things

to look at so because for one person it

might be a different issue than someone

else

very good well i’m a little worried

about jaden from youtube because he

wants to know what could be causing

white circular spots on my arms and legs

i mean i have no idea um

could it be a pin worm i have no idea

i’d have to get more information

on that

i mean you have vitiligo which is a

another issue so i i don’t know

wow to see a picture yeah jayden just

tell your um

girlfriend to stay 10 paces until you

figure out what’s going on with that we

wish you well

let’s see we’ve got the answer to quiz

question number two which asked which is

worse a high carb diet or snacking for

weight loss 70 percent say it’s snacking

the villain 30 say it’s high carbs

you know this is another fascinating

topic um

it’s actually snacking and i’m going to

tell you why i think it’s snacking is

worse than a high carb

both of them increase insulin

but

personally when i

gave up the snacking which are like

apples and peanut butter i gave up the

snack and i had two apples um with

peanut butter one mid mid at mid morning

mid afternoon i gave that up i dropped

from 211 to 180 pounds

so

what’s interesting about that is

the a study that was done on children

and found

as the most isolated

validated factor of

obesity it was the snacking more than

any other factor

um

plus

steve when you grew up

did you have a lot of uh well i guess

you grew up in

the 40s right now i’m just kidding um

the 70s or the 60s i don’t know i don’t

even know how old you are but

let me just say this when you grew up

did you see as many overweight children

as you do now you know uh

we didn’t eat well we had peanut butter

and jelly with the with the crust cut

off so there was just pure white mush

and a kool-aid ice cube filled with

sugar in a paper towel that was our

snack but there wasn’t a

heavy person in sight if you saw someone

heavy you pointed at them oh my god look

a fat person we were all bone skinny

because we ran all day we didn’t you

know we didn’t eat that much

so so so in 1977 um

gradually

through the 80s and 90s there’s been a

push

to get every man woman and child on

snacks and snacks and snacking and eat

eat between the meals but before that it

was more of like a three salad meals

maybe one snack but it was more the

three meals and i will say even during

that time i mean i lived on pure junk

food and sugar

so but it was the three

three meals of junk food and sugar

so um you know the snacking is

definitely um

it is something that is um

a very bad thing for people

unfortunately they’re stuck in it and

it’s so available isn’t it it’s so

available and people say to snack to

what prevent overeating

well they don’t realize that it’s the

frequency of the because what happens

through the day if you’re eating that

many frequent meals what you’re doing is

you’re constantly stimulating insulin

every it’s kind of like if you were to

exercise

um

six or eight times in a day

so you’re gonna exercise that frequent

right is that gonna be better than maybe

two times a day or once a day

no you want that recovery so the

pancreas needs a chance to recover and

the frequency of eating is just deadly

well and i will say you can relieve

yourself of the burden of choice if you

do intermittent fasting it’s so

wonderful because it’s just off the

table i’m not going to eat anything much

less snacks and it helps me because i’m

you know i’m weak well this is a perfect

perfect example steve you’re you’re not

doing keto exactly but you are doing

fasting so and you’re still getting a

lot of benefits so that is

very interesting

yeah well that’s the easier route to set

yourself up for keto i think because you

just you know you just don’t have to

think about food for 20 hours a day

seems impossible to suggest such a thing

because i used to think about it

constantly but it really really works

you lose your hunger and

it’s a miracle

yeah it’s it’s pretty amazing okay next

question

all right

during stress anxiety and worry what

happens to your immune

t cells

those are the um

the cells that fight

viruses they kill cancer

they do a lot of things with your immune

system so what happens to those cells

during

times of stress worry and anxiety all

right very good let’s go to georgia

tariq is with us and tariq if you can

remember to unmute yourself and you’re

on with dr bird

[Music]

can you hear me

perfect perfectly

wonderful

first of all

as

many americans we really appreciate

everything that you do your passion to

help live

long

quality healthy life

appreciate it

my question is

is there a person

or procedures

that will actually

reduce

or even eliminate existing calcium

buildup

either in your heart veins or arteries

cardiologist recently was a small amount

in my mouth

the original vein

but um

it’s not real bad but i wanted to

address it naturally rather than

start using statins

and i refused to do that i told her so

i’m gonna have to do it naturally i’ll

die

did you by chance get that coronary

artery calcification scan and and if you

did um they actually rate it on a scale

can you remember your number

oh you know i thought you might ask that

i went back and looked

and

q qtc is that it

or qr s or qt

i think that’s a little bit different

test so evidently

okay and then all right so i don’t have

it would i i can say this i don’t have

the exact number in front of me because

i look for it briefly and could not find

it but what i did

what i do recall is it was still within

range

okay but it wasn’t

it was

in

but it wasn’t near zero anywhere near it

might even maybe a third of the way

through

but but the bottom line is i’m trying to

be proactive

yeah i saw i saw a diagram when they

when i hit the test he actually had on

the computer uh

animation of it and he showed me a

couple of little specks of calcium

in my in my heart

okay the large artery

here’s what i suggest with calcium

calcium is

coming in there as a band-aid

um to fix something you wanna you wanna

get to the root of it you wanna just

really make sure and i’m sure you’re

doing this right now make sure that you

you don’t have any need for a band-aid

and so

of course your diet should be low-carb

and it should be um healthy and clean

and all that so that way you don’t have

the um

the inflammation factor to cause the

body to deposit calcium that being said

one of the best protective things

for the inside of the arteries is the

tocotrienol type vitamin e supplement i

would highly recommend to get that and

then the other thing is if um

there’s um some natural things you can

do to remove calcium one is vitamin k2

that’s the one that

helps to direct the calcium into the

bone and out of the soft tissues and

then i’ve done videos on taking a

chelator

i don’t even know if you would probably

need a key later but that would be

called edta it’s a type of

you can get it as a kind of a supplement

that pulls out some of the calcium but

it also pulls out other minerals so you

want to make sure

if you take it you have to put back in

the minerals that you want so it’s a

little a little more complex i don’t

think you need to go that route but if

you had a lot of calcium you can do that

but over time

if you really make sure your diet is

correct

the calcium should be reabsorbed and go

back into the bones

but vitamin k2 is a

key factor and it just so happens that

most sources of k2 are

high fat high fat cheese butter things

like that the exact things that the

doctors are telling you not to eat but

you can also get it from

something called uh nato which is a

fermented soybean so there’s different

ways to get it but um

you know

um

i think that’s what i would recommend i

think you’ll you’ll be on the right

track and the good thing is that it

doesn’t sound like

your calcium is out of control but i

like the concept of being proactive

well in fact

he did recommend get

four fat soluble vitamins k2 a

d and e

um

but but the bottom line is

it was inspiring to see that gentleman

that fasten his way out of cancer and

mine is not that bad but i just think

that

well first of all i see this real

quickly what i did was i initially

changed my lifestyle you know i haven’t

had any meat

i haven’t had any pork in 50 years no

no

last time i had poultry was in 1975

and i don’t drink a smoke but

looking back on it i was still consuming

a certain amount of carbs and sugar too

much

that was called what i’m trying to do is

get it the root cause and i learned a

lot by looking at your videos and

research so i’m trying to do things to

reduce my

insulin produced

in which which i found out that ldl the

good

uh cholesterol was really

forming plaque because of the high

insulin and sugar and stuff so that’s

something that i’m trying to do to the

adjusting again i really really

appreciate

you doing for all

all of us it’s very important hey you’re

on the right track i like what you’re

doing

okay i appreciate it but one quick

question

to me as you said

when you pass if you

anything but water

it’s not really a fast but what you’re

saying is your keto suggestions like you

you do coffee etc etc

uh vinegar water

maybe once a day or whatever

you’re saying that doesn’t really hurt

you

it would not hurt my

uh procedure to try to reduce the

the

cholesterol

yes that’s what i’m saying i’m saying

that um

correct by definition a true fast is

you’re only drinking water but you know

it’s really difficult not to do

something um so these other things are

very very minor

in

um throwing you off um it’s not going to

throw you off for more than a few

minutes so i think i wouldn’t worry

about it and

they can help you they can help speed

things up um

so

there’s benefits to them like like tea

and

some coffee and

you know nutritional supplements

and

you know maybe a

green powder without the fiber

or apple cider vinegar

or a kombucha tea well kombucha tea i

will say does have a little bit of sugar

so yeah make sure you get the one that

doesn’t

but um yeah there’s uh there’s

it’s a minor minor issue really tariq

thanks so much for coming on with us and

i hope that helped and get back with us

at some point and let us know how you

are

proceeding

we appreciate you being on okay let’s

see here

uh

our quiz question the last one was

during stress anxiety worry what happens

to your immune t cells and maybe

somebody’s been watching your videos

because it’s a hundred percent or

they’re throwing it all on red they say

that it uh it weakens uh t-cells weaken

decrease or even die under stress

well they um they actually become

paralyzed they come paralyzed for two

hours

now if you’re in a chronic stress you

can imagine it’s probably being

paralyzed more often but literally they

stop

moving they stop moving they stop

working that’s your defenses so guess

what’s going to happen to cancer if you

have cancer there’s no more fighting

cancer there’s no more fighting viruses

so it kind of leaves you in a state of

susceptibility so you’re now you’re

you’re predisposed to getting infections

and other problems so it’s just it just

shows you the magnitude of how important

it is

to do what you can

to keep the stress and worry anxiety to

a minimum i’m going to be releasing some

more videos on that um but a lot of your

cells

become immobile

and they stop working

the frontal cortex of your brain stops

firing as much as it normally does so

your ability to make decisions be

creative solve problems all go down

when you’re in this flight or fight mode

so

a good way to counter that is to

[Music]

start moving start moving fast get your

body in motion

start to do the opposite you know and

your muscles are things that you can

control uh breathing for example

your lungs don’t necessarily

do the breathing it’s the diaphragm that

helps push the lungs and get them

moving

so again the muscles so

there’s a great breathing technique that

i talk about in some of the videos to

get pulsum out of a panic attack

and then also there’s a couple systems

of exercise that i really like because

they they combine breathing with

controlled movements

when you’re under stress you’re kind of

out of control so putting back in this

control

can greatly pull you out of stress yoga

and i’m not talking about the philosophy

of yoga just the

physical aspects of the the workout as

well as pilates

pilates is an awesome

system of controlled movements with

breathing and it can greatly help people

reduce stress and feel good

that’s terrific let’s go over to

facebook where maria says her 84 year

old mother is on a lot of meds she gets

chronic utis i encourage her to drink

plenty of water and cranberry juice is

there anything else you’d recommend

i had the same thing with my

mother-in-law she stayed with us and i

was looking at all these drugs i’m like

what the heck is going on this is crazy

so we got the doc we started asking

questions and found out that

well we’re giving this person because

they have that i go well but this

medication gives you a side effect of

utis and they go um

yeah well can we start lowering some of

these things and so we started lowering

them all of a sudden her utas went away

uti’s went away and

we found that a lot of

the problems that she was solving were

created from the other drugs that she

was taking so um

unless you reduce the medications

how are you going to how are you going

to fix the problem you’re going to just

eat better i will say that the more

medications you are and you are on the

better your diet should be to counter

the side effects but of course that

would probably get rid of the need for

medications

one of the

biggest things that i see um

missing in in just healthcare’s

is they don’t put enough attention on on

the correct diet

might they might say well avoid

red meat because that’s the worst thing

you can do they eat more whole grains

wholesome natural grains and cut down on

that fat and drink more water

like um

well there’s um that’s not not the best

way to create health unfortunately

all right very good why don’t we go back

to our green room

and teresa is going to in 30 seconds ask

us

or tell us what her question is theresa

if you’re unmuted you’re on with dr bird

oop you’re still muted dear once you hit

that once more

is that better much perfect

okay hello dr berg thank you for having

such a generous heart you and your wife

you put a lot of valuable information

out there to the world and it’s coming

back to you and um thank you very much

so my question is

um

i have had a growing list of health

issues

and what happens is i then stop and try

to do the keto in intermittent fasting

then i can last about three weeks four

weeks i get all the supplements i’m

trying everything i’m feeling good but

then it’s almost like it’s running off

my willpower

and then it collapses

and then i have more health issues i

have gained like 25 pounds

i have these underlying and i remember

you said health issues you have to heal

underneath to lose the weight

but i’m trying but every round i go i go

deeper into a kind of a hole of not

some things not working and these health

you know there’s these underlying health

things that maybe i’m not getting to i

don’t know what the issue is

can you just really quickly really

quickly tell me

um

what you

eat when you’re attempting keto

yes i eat very clean i eat the protein

like the amount that you see you know

the size of the palm of the hand i have

a bowl and i try to eat 10 cups of

vegetables i pour the olive oil or pure

butter and i try two times a day and

then drink my water and electrolyte

water

you know so it’s really clean

eating and i think i have the portions

right you know and i don’t i love

vegetables

but something

just doesn’t

you know i don’t know

so then so then you do it and then then

you you start craving certain things and

then you go off the program

i do kind of crave i noticed you know

all um nuts or i’ll crave um

sugars and i’m always battling up

against the sugar thing so that when i

finally weaken and i have a little bit

of carbs or a little bit of sugar

yeah i mean a little bit it’s just like

it’s a house of cards that just comes

down

and

you know so my i you know i don’t know

i think there’s a couple things one one

is um

i’m almost done if you just hang in

there there’s a

the new membership program i’m working

on

has um work i’m i’m getting with my all

my trained keto uh coaches to

really

fix

what you’re running into which is

working with you consistently

to get just the basic pattern of eating

in long enough for you to see the

results and make the transition and work

with you to tweak it because that’s what

you just need someone to

help you keep tweaking it to tailor make

it to your body i think the other thing

that jumps out right off the bat is um

i don’t think you’re having enough fat

i think you need to increase more fat

like pecans

um would be good and and even

have a good high quality and you make it

a keto dessert so that way

you know

you don’t um buy something that has a

hidden crap in there like you make it

with the right sweeteners and all that

and then start having start doing that

because

that way

you’re not giving up something and you

have a something you fall back on

but

the other than that i think

yeah you’re running into you just

haven’t done it long enough to be able

to convert over so now the appetite goes

away and you’re you’re winning on it

and you and getting to that state is

like being obviously tough for you so

i think what i would do right now is get

some pecans

or other nuts that you like and start

adding that at the end of the meal and

then

make a really good keto dessert so you

feel like you’re getting something sweet

but of course don’t buy it because

it’s really hard to find a

you know pre-made keto dessert without

the all these hidden things that i don’t

approve of

you know i interestingly i do buy the

peak i go to costco i have the the

pecans i do the the dessert bombs but i

think you’re saying something

i think i’m the type that needs what

you’re saying a level of coaching

to get me through properly because

i sincerely try

but it’s not not turning the corner and

i can’t find that level of coaching to

get me

through so what do i look for

when when are you offering that or

whatever

if you if you’re um watching my videos

or you’re on my my list um on some

email list uh you’ll get a notification

real soon i mean i’m i’m putting a

tremendous amount of time and upgrade to

this membership site with with the help

of the coaching to to really um

get someone’s basic eating completely

correct

and tailor-made and implemented

over a period of few weeks to and that’s

really kind of what you need is some

some hands-on

back and forth until you just nail it

and you’d be surprised um

it’s just a matter of finding that thing

and then all of a sudden it works

um so

i think if you just hang in there a

little bit longer we’ll we’ll have this

done i mean this is i’ve been working

day every day on this thing so we’re

almost there i just have to upload a few

more videos and then we’re

we’re good to go

perfect thank you and then one just

quickly you know i’ve had things like i

live under chronic stress i had thyroid

problems sugar

sugar problems kidney stones

osteoporosis

afibulation i mean

now this virus of

has surfaced after a billion years like

it’s a non-stop train ride of these

things coming to the surface am i still

able to do this with all those kind of

issues i had thyroid cancer you know

yeah it’s just it’s going to be just a

little bit more difficult but i i think

you’re going to have to actively and

aggressively

uh do things to counter this stress and

really

evaluate where is it really coming from

and

confront the heck out of it because

um

the stress thing is is a killer and so

um if you do that um

you’re gonna have to force yourself get

outside every day go for the long walk

do these

you know lemon balm tea but but other

than that too is

you’re going to have to address

whatever’s chronically putting you in

the stress day because that alone will

inhibit your results but there’s so many

things you can do

so

um hang in there and um

yeah we’ll we’re almost going to release

that soon so that’s great teresa thanks

so much for joining us uh let’s go to

the next quiz question doc here it is

all right true or false

poor sleep can make you infertile

hmm

all right audience

grab on to that let’s go back to

a social media reread from youtube i had

a hysterectomy in my early 30s and now

i’m in my 60s i’m trying intermittent

fasting but i can’t get into ketosis

could a hysterectomy be a factor

it potentially could that’s a it’s a

major trauma and it does cause

stress on the adrenals after the surgery

and also the adrenals back up the

ovaries

there’s a really good

um video i have on this topic and

there’s a cut there’s a supplement that

i would recommend from a company called

standard process called utrophin

pmg

if you took that

i think it could help you because in

practice i used to recommend that as a

supplement if someone had a hysterectomy

and they seem to do really good because

it supplies the body uh things of things

are missing

um because now you have a missing organ

so it’s called eutrophin pmg by standard

process

terrific let’s go back to the green room

this time we’re going to go to michelle

who is coming to us from new jersey the

land of pizza michelle you’re on with dr

bird

thanks so much and and dr burke thank

you so much for all of the valuable

videos and you know all of the

information that you put out there the

supplements i’ve been using have been

fantastic and very helpful so thank you

for everything that you do um so my

question is

um

you know in regards to the betaine hcl

um i’ve followed a lot of what you were

saying in in regards to you know gerd

and you know i have had this you know

sensation in the back of my throat like

that there was something there of course

that hasn’t been and um had a scope the

whole nine yards they said that you know

it was likely that it was gerd but no

heartburn or anything like that of the

sort but i was taking the betaine acl

had kind of you know worked up to

getting to be you know taking six per

meal and you know intermittent fasting

and keto as well so two meals a day and

was doing that for quite some time from

january actually and just recently i’ve

started having these bouts of heartburn

which have been waking me up in the

middle of the night and you know also

late after my second meal so i’m

wondering is that a sign that it’s time

to you know kind of start reducing that

and what’s the typical time frame that

you know someone is usually taking that

betaine hcl because i understand from

your videos that you know once you get

that level of stomach acid up you know

the body is is you know just recycling

that i think as you called it so

you know at what point is enough enough

and you know how do you know when it’s

time to reduce that

well you know when uh you had enough

when you start getting heartburn

um so

if you stop taking that and everything

clears up then we know for a fact if you

stop taking your heartburn gets worse

then we need to um reevaluate and go

wait a second um

maybe you need um something more for the

probiotics something lower

um in the digestive tract uh but i think

i would just stop checking and if it

goes away then we know you’re done like

you you already built up your hcl so uh

because it isn’t it’s not a forever

product you just build it up and then

you stop taking it

okay gotcha and what i continue to still

take um like the enzymes i take the

gallbladder formula i don’t have a

gallbladder so that’s something that i

take when i continue taking something

like that

that that’s something you might want to

continue to take because you don’t have

a gallbladder and so you don’t have that

concentration of bile but now that i

know you don’t have a gallbladder um

so there’s

here’s the thing um

the only time i would say stop taking

the gallbladder or bile salts when you

don’t have a gallbladder

is when

you might have too much bile and a good

symptom of that would be diarrhea or a

loose bowels then like okay so because

because if you have too much mild it can

cause diarrhea so you back off on that

but if that’s not the case then

keep taking that um

that gallbladder support formula um

but it’s kind of one of those things you

just have to kind of

uh watch more of my videos and

understand like what’s happening and

adjust this versus that

um

but i think um right now i would stop

the detain and see if that fixes

everything

excellent super we’ll definitely do that

and one um last question too you know

since shifting to you know follow keto i

do the healthy clean ketos as much as

humanly possible despite our

conversation on pizza before

but you know i’ve had this symptom of

having an extremely dry mouth for a very

long time and you know it’s gotten to

the point where i’m now using the xyla

melts to try to you know because it’s

really it’s something that’s driving me

insane so is there is there something

that i’m missing you know nutrition wise

that that’s causing you know me to have

that dry mouth at night in the morning

i’m fine it’s just throughout the day

it’s getting drier and drier

dry mouth

potentially could be

you need more fluids however

it could also be a lack of vitamin a

vitamin a will cause both dry mouth and

sometimes even dry eyes so because it

affects the the superficial mucous

membranes on the inside of your body

and

so vitamin a now why would you be

deficient vitamin a well

don’t have enough gold

bile from because the gallbladder’s not

there so even though you have the bile

maybe what you need to do is start

beefing up your vitamin a and just so

happens that

um liver is a good source of vitamin a

and so

is butter and

what else

certain

raw milk dairy has vitamin a

cod liver oil has vitamin a

these are things that i would i would

try

um and then with that bile salt that

should help you

and then let’s say you did that and it

didn’t fully handle it um

it could be that you do need to increase

your fluids maybe with some more

electrolytes just to get more hydrated

and then maybe add a little more sea

salt in there so these are just things i

would i would test and look at and think

think with as i was trying to solve that

all right great thank you so much

michelle uh good luck with all that and

as with all our guests and agreeing we

ask that

after you’ve tried some different things

and progressed please give us a ring

back and let us know how you’re doing

with all that that’s a important

research that’s conducted by you other

research was done by the audience who

has answered the recent question which

asks true false sleep can make you

infertile

and

98 of respondents say it’s true and

there’s a two percenter holding out

saying it’s false

well um it’s true it’s true because of

what it does to cortisol and increases

cortisol and cortisol

inhibits uh your fertility

inhibits the endocrine system

testosterone in men and females it can

alter uh certain sex hormones so

yeah one one if someone’s infertile

um they should really look also at their

stress level and address that um i have

so many videos

on stress and i’m gonna release another

one in a couple days

but um it’s one factor that we all have

to address but a little stress is

essential a lot of chronic stress is

not good and so

we have to work at

dealing with that too because so many

people like are in a chronic state of

anxiety or worry and they just can’t

seem to get out of it

like i said before because the immune

system becomes paralyzed your

your brain tends to you get brain freeze

writer’s block all sorts of

things happen with your cognitive

function it takes a

a low stress environment

to have a lot of creativity to solve

problems to have enough

space to really you know

um come up with the right solutions too

so it’s

stress can really mess someone up in

many different levels

all right well we have someone from

tunisia moab

is coming to us and moab if you there

you go you’re on with dr byrd

uh hello everyone it’s a great honor dr

berg to be here with you

with the other amazing guys sharing

their experiences

uh personally i would like to speak

about my experience i started doing ketu

diet and intermittent fasting

six months ago

it was a life-changing experience i lost

20 kilos of

fat

but now i’m trying to build some muscle

tissue

and continue uh losing

losing fat because i still have some

belly fat

it seems to be a little bit difficult

for me because i can’t find

a great

relation between

continuing the process of losing fat

and

starting building

muscle effectively

i want to get a general

information about

[Music]

the

maintaining

losing fat and starting

building a muscle effectively how should

i work out which foods am i allowed to

eat and others not

thank you

yeah i think the the key to the muscle

building has to be a

a really good exercise program that

involves

um

low reps heavier weight

uh and

you know i

i always recommend this you can always

have a personal trainer push you further

than you can push yourself

and someone that is can really coach you

on that aspect but you definitely need

to

do a full body workout um

and then as far as having enough energy

to do that with the calories that you

eat so you’re gonna have to increase the

quantity of food um i i wouldn’t if you

realize this the leanness has to do with

the carbohydrate so you might have to go

lower carb and then

maybe to keep the volume up of calories

to have the energy

increase the fat and even some more

protein which will then

help balance things out but you don’t

necessarily

want to build muscle with eating just

more protein that’s not going to do it

and if you eat more carbs that’s going

to build more fat so we want to get a

low carb we want to go maybe a little

more protein more fat low carb does it

mean

only a fruit a day or should i eat oat

or brown rice or no no you don’t want to

do any of that you don’t want to do

grains you don’t want to do fruits

because then that’s the sugar and that’s

going to turn down and turn the sugar

fast and that’s going to keep you fat

because

in my videos

uh when you study on insulin

uh the more that something increases

insulin the more that you’re not going

to be able to burn fat so we want to

eliminate all these triggers to insulin

so then you can get lean because we want

to force your body to use up your own

fat

by keeping those carbs as low as

possible and there’s a really i think a

good video for you

to watch would be

it’s something um don’t quote me but i

think it’s keto on steroids

and i think i did one keto and steroids

updated

that might be a good one for you to

watch because

um i think that’s what you need right

now uh especially for the education

is it the one with thomas de lauer

[Music]

no that’s a different one

oh okay

okay

uh

should i uh i started doing uh two meals

in order to uh

to build uh some muscle uh in the first

meal i always try to have some little

carbs under protein

in the second meal after workout uh i’m

aiming for

the same amount of protein and a little

bit of fat would that be sufficient

what kind of carbs are you eating

sometimes fruit one fruit

other times some oats

that’s it

yeah i would go back to my videos

because we talk about

fruits are not on the plan and

oats are not on the plan i’m sorry

but yeah you’re going to have to change

the carbohydrate to a big salad

a delicious big salad with

olive oil and

vinaigrette if you want and then that

way and other vegetables too but that’s

the carbohydrates that you want to

consume

more of not the fruit

okay moab listen we’re about out of time

so i hope you got something uh

productive out of that and we’ll look

forward to hearing from you again

uh dr berg we have arna which her

picture has been a little tough but arna

can you hear us why don’t you go ahead

with your question

arna can you hear us

i think her connection is still spinning

so unfortunately yeah okay well listen

um dr berg we’re just about out of time

i think something really important is

for you to emphasize once again

uh how great product availability is

becoming internationally you want to

talk about that for a minute

well uh if you’re like me um you don’t

like paying as much for shipping when

you get order products so um we’re

constantly trying to

reduce the shipping cost so now we’re in

different areas of the world so you can

look down below and get some links if

you’re not in america to not have to pay

the expensive new

shipping

costs

but on that note i just really

appreciate all your wonderful comments

and your great successes stay tuned for

more

really interesting videos i’m i’m glad

that you’re liking them but i’m

i’m coming up with even more interesting

things that are going to be released

this next week so stay tuned and i will

definitely see everyone next week

same time same place
