hey guys it’s dr. Berg here and now

we’re going to talk about part three of

healthy lifestyle hacks okay this one’s

a good one so basically when you

recommend something to someone

or if you’re going to implement

something you need to understand the why

behind the what to do it’s very

important to know the theory of why

something works versus just blindly

following it right so let’s just talk

about that for a second so why would you

need vegetables why do you need so much

why do you need seven to ten cups of

vegetable why well how is your going to

get your potassium and nutrients your

body requires forty seven hundred

milligrams of potassium every single day

we’re going to get it

there’s no pill that you could actually

supplement you need to get it from

vegetables in large quantities plus the

vegetable flesh out flushes out the fat

it cleans out the liver as you burn fat

very important you get all the nutrients

other nutrients magnesium you know trace

minerals vitamins from the vegetable

okay number two why why shouldn’t you

snack because every time you eat

anything you stimulate insulin insulin

resistance or a pre-diabetic situation

is too much insulin so we cut it down we

can actually improve or correct that

thing the other thing is that if you

don’t snack you’re going to lose more

weight because the principle of weight

loss is the absence of carbohydrates

that’s the most important thing not the

absence of calories but cutting out the

carbs in the sugars okay and mainly

because that lowers insulin so if we can

keep insulin low by not snacking because

snacking actually stimulates it

stimulates insulin you can start to

really see some serious change that’s a

very important thing versus having this

idea that you can have six snacks a day

whatever okay avoid too much water so

people are pushing this water on you

every day oh you got to drink your water

drink your water drink your water why

shouldn’t you drink water because the

peak coming out of you is not the same

as the water going in the peak coming

out of you has a lot of electrolytes the

more water you drink the more you flush

things out like electrolytes so drinking

pure water is not replacing electrolyte

it’s diluting electrolytes that could

weaken the heart and you’re going to

feel bloated

and your your your not going to be

hydrated so I know this might sound

strange but too much water will

dehydrate you because hydration is a

combination of electrolytes and fluid

okay so you want to drink when you’re

thirsty and not push too much in the

system because you’ll blow at the kidney

fats with meals why do you need have fat

with a meal well because that allows you

not not just to get the fat size of item

ins but to allow you to go longer to be

satisfied if you go low-fat you’re not

going to go a long time without eating

going to be hungry and you’re going to

eat you’re going to cheat so you want to

be satisfied so you don’t eat so much

and stimulate insulin so our goal is to

reduce insulin so you don’t want to

avoid fat so you want to consume them

because that lowers the insulin okay

it’s the only food that won’t trigger

insulin okay all right I will see you in
