hey guys in this video we’re gonna share

why keto and intermittent fasting will

decrease the need for actual sleep okay

now number one lack of sleep worsens

your blood sugar so if you don’t get

enough sleep if you’re a diabetic you’re

gonna find that you’re going to need

more medication because the blood sugars

are going to be more unstable number two

good sleep increases your blood Sugar’s

you sleep really good you don’t crave as

much junk food okay where whereas if you

don’t sleep boy you’re just like

thinking about food all the time and

number three high sugars will not only

create brain fog and fatigue but it

prevents the quality of sleep diabetics

generally need more sleep but if you do

kiddo in a minute fasting and you reduce

your carbs which is the opposite of a

diabetic situation you’re going to have

neuroprotection okay so the nerve cells

the brain cells are protected and you’re

going to have something called

neurogenesis which is basically you can

regrow brain cells well guess where all

the cellular machinery for sleep is

located in your brain the circadian

rhythms which control the cycle of

sleeping called the suprachiasmatic

nuclei is located in your brain and the

little tiny neurological switches that

control sleep and awake located in the

brainstem called the Rafah nuclei and

the locus coeruleus are also supported

when you dookied Oh in a minute

fascinating so the more that the total

brain is supported the more these

specific functions are supported and the

need for sleep is reduced whereas in a

diabetic patient the entire brain

actually shrinks and you get atrophy of

these centers causing the need for more

sleep so just to summarize we have two

situations one is wow I don’t need much

sleep and I’m still awake and I’m still

I’m not tired and then the other

situation is wow I started Kido and now

I can’t sleep and I’m tired that’s a

different situation I put a link down

below of what to do for that but if

you’re sleeping less and you’re still

awake and you’re not tired then now you

know the reason why

hey you know what I just want to say

something only 30% of the people that

watching this video actually make it

this far and you did so I really

appreciate you thank you so much
