i’d like to share with you um the

potential underlying cause

for an overactive bladder a leaky

bladder a bladder that can’t hold urine

a bladder that causes you to go more

frequently and sometimes even frequent

urination at night

so let’s go ahead and dissect this

problem because there’s a lot of

confusions about the underlying cause

okay and of course the treatments have

side effects

but

many of the medications that they use

for this condition are

anti-cholinergic now what does that mean

it means that they block a certain

neurotransmitter called acetylcholine

now acetylcholine is kind of like a um

a hormone within the nervous system

that

affects the pelvic floor

as well as the mechanisms that allow you

to

contract and relax your bladder and that

whole system collectively is called the

autonomic nervous system so the drugs

that they use for leaky bladder really

are affecting the autonomic nervous

system which makes sense because one of

the

root dysfunctions is neurogenic which

means it’s coming from the nervous

system the other cause that they talk

about is idiopathic

that is a fancy term that means unknown

cause okay and what we do know about the

idiopathic or unknown causes of a leaky

bladder is that a major cause for that

is

you guessed it insulin resistance okay

that’s a condition where you also have

high amounts of

insulin which then leads to alteration

within your autonomic nervous system so

when you have this imbalance or

dysfunction within the sympathetic

nervous system and the parasympathetic

can affect the muscle called the

detrusor muscle so now the confusing

part about this when you do research on

it

they pretty much

focus in on estrogen okay a loss of

estrogen especially after menopause

because of course when you go through

menopause

your estrogen drops so you definitely

have a hormonal

problem that can definitely affect

the

bladder as well as the vaginal area and

many other parts of the body but the

problem is when you give someone with a

leaky bladder estrogen it doesn’t seem

to solve the problem it’s more of a

nerve related problem within the

autonomic nervous system which can be

greatly affected when you have

insulin resistance so this problem gets

worse when you age when you’re pregnant

uh when you have childbirth especially

multiple childbirths because that’s

going to affect those muscles that help

you contract and relax

because that’s going to affect the

structure it’s going to

stretch out uh the valve that controls

um the release of urine through your

bladder and then also there’s things

that aggravate it like

chronic constipation

uh obesity problems with chronic

coughing and asthma and of course the

usual stuff

people that drink a lot of tea and

coffee these things can all aggravate

the condition not to mention this

condition getting worse when you’re

under stress which makes a lot of sense

because

of how stress influences the autonomic

nervous system so the first thing i’m

going to recommend is something that

might just solve it without having to

even try any herbal remedies or even the

kegel exercises and that would be

addressing this insulin resistance

insulin resistance

dramatically and negatively affects the

autonomic nervous system so a lot of

problems connected to that will

disappear when you address this insulin

resistance i’m going to recommend

healthy keto and intermittent fasting

and really do it

for real where you’re eliminating these

refined carbs you’re keeping your carbs

under i would say 25 grams per day

you’re doing the healthy version of the

ketogenic diet as well as doing

intermittent fasting so you’re fasting

for 18 hours

and you have an eating window of six

hours so that will help frequent

urination especially in men at night

it’s very very effective for that and if

your problem really is the autonomic

nervous system you’re going to greatly

affect

positively the function of your bladder

control because and the reason i’m

saying this is because if you jump right

to the herbs the remedy and you don’t

fix this foundational eating problem

and you don’t fix insulin resistance the

herbs may not nearly have the impact

that they should and you might just kind

of chalk it up to well another remedy

didn’t work

let me go for the medications the

problem is they create side effects so i

would highly recommend starting with the

healthy version of the ketogenic diet

within a minute of fasting okay that’s

number one number two kegel exercises

okay now this will help put more control

into your bladder because urination is

both involuntary and voluntary and if

you start to do these exercises you

start to put more control

into the voluntary part of those muscles

how do you do that well number one you

ensure that your bladder is empty

you want to land your back maybe on your

bed okay with your knees up you want to

keep your lower back curve so you don’t

want to flatten the curve in your lower

back you can even roll up a towel and

put that in your lower back but that way

it rocks your pelvis forward then you

want to lift and squeeze

the pelvic opening okay and you’re gonna

do that for a count of five seconds okay

you’re gonna contract those muscles and

then you’re gonna relax those muscles

for five seconds and you’re gonna go

back and forth for about 10 times okay

and then just do this three times a day

spread out through the day and these

exercises have been done for many years

and with a very positive effect as far

as the herbal remedies there’s some

great data that i found

searching for patents using herbal or

natural remedies for an overactive

bladder and i’m going to share all this

information in the description as well

one of these patents

actually has a very hard core

study that was double-blinded placebo

control and it showed significant

improvements and i did a deep dive on

these three herbs and guess what i found

they affect the autonomic nervous system

surprise so the first herb is called

cretiva

nirvala stem bark and another name for

this is varuna number two horsetail and

number three lindura agrigata so i’ll

put these three herbs in the description

so you can do your research and try to

find maybe a product that has all three

but definitely start with the healthy

version of keto within a minute of

fasting and i’m going to put a link down

below if you’re new to keto

i have a just a free download you can go

to my site just download it and it’ll

tell you exactly how to do this in fact

why don’t i just show you a video how to

do it right here check it out
