all right so some of you when you’re

doing keto and in a minute fasting you

are having problems sleeping at night

also what you’re telling me is that

during the day you have all this energy

you’re just not tired anymore and that’s

simply because in the transition phase

is called keto adaptation you’re

switching over to the fat burning and

fat has more than double the potential

energy storage mechanism more than

double so you’re using a whole different

fuel that has more energy and it’s it’s

kind of getting your brain awake so

you’re laying there trying to sleep and

like I’m not even tired right carbs are

more fatiguing okay

fall asleep I remember I used to have a

blood sugar problem I didn’t this was

years ago I didn’t know what to do but

the only way I could sleep it’s

consuming a pint of Ben & Jerry’s ice

cream and that would put me out like a

sugar that’s why when you have blood

sugar problems you want to take a nap

after you eat right so it’s just the

opposite now you can’t sleep so just

realize it’s going to be temporary and

what you can do to resolve it is there’s

just three things one is to start adding

more minerals especially potassium the

next one is a lot more B vitamins okay

because B vitamins

directly relate to the metabolism of the

mitochondria and that’s gonna actually

help you make this transition faster and

I would do nutritional yeast you can

give them tablets but just double the

amount and have more of that that will

greatly help you and then the last thing

you would want to do is you just want to

add more exercise to your day to use up

some of this energy but you have so go

for longer walks workout more frequent

just to get the energy out of your body

but that’s really what’s going on it’s

temporary it will improve over time but

I just wanted to explain this mechanism

alright I’ll see you later
