hey guys dr. Berg here in this video I’m

going to talk about the number one brain

focus tip if you have any lack of focus

or brain fog this video is for you and

have to do with something that’s related

to alleged sugars okay when the blood

sugars go high use a whole series of

symptoms okay that relate to cognitive

function and your brain when the blood

sugars go low you have a whole series of

additional symptoms that can occur let’s

just kind of talk about the difference

first so high blood sugar and that would

be mainly diabetics or pre-diabetics

brain fog headaches loss of memory and

focus vision issues your vision starts

going absent-mindedness

things like you go in a room you’re like

okay what did I go in here for drowsy

that’s for high sugar mainly it’s going

to be sleepy though you’re going to like

one take a nap and try to go to school

try to study when you’re when your blood

sugars are high it’s almost impossible

and then we have low blood sugars and

even diabetics they can have high low

depending on if they’re taking their

medication and drops too low okay low

blood sugars forgetfulness anxiety from

worried to panic attacks nervous

irritable highly critical restlessness

depression confusion OCD I would venture

to say over 50% of the mental disorders

that a lot of psychiatrists use are

related to blood sugars but they never

look at the blood sugar issue at all

instead you put on a medication

unfortunately but it really does affect

the brain because the brain needs fuel

okay it could run on sugar fuel it can

also run on ketones we’ll get into that

in a second but the point is this blood

sugar issues are related to consuming

too much sugar that’s one thing

consuming too much refined carbohydrate

the worst advice for a diabetic or

anyone for that

to have five small meals a day and

spread out and have snacks because every

time you eat you spike insulin so

insulin is the issue and there’s a

condition called insulin resistance if

you watch my videos you pretty much know

all about it if you don’t click the link

below because that’s very important but

here’s that here’s an interesting

situation you see these commercials on

people being tired and consuming a

energy drink or a Snickers bar all

you’re doing is you’re temporarily for a

minute spiking and then boom you end up

with brain fog maybe five minutes later

so what happens is over time when you do

that is you have this this blood sugar

that the door that opens the blood sugar

into the brain is insulin so that’s the

hormone that regulates that sugar and

over time that door becomes resistant to

sugar so it neat takes more and more and

more sugar to create that effect and so

in other words your body is resisting it

so basically consuming sugar starves

your body of sugar fuel over time okay

and it takes ten years for a

pre-diabetic or insulin resistant client

to turn into a diabetic so this could

happen below the radar for many many

years the problem in the medical

community is that they don’t really

recognize a hypoglycemia for example

unless it shows up on a blood test and

they’re mainly using several tests like

a fasting glucose test well what they

should do is check a fasting insulin

test which is a lot better and that’s

going to show the subclinical

issues because we want to know what’s

happening to that insolent okay now

here’s the point the point is over time

your brain becomes less sharp more foggy

and it becomes more sensitive sugar you

might not connect the dots at first

you’re just going along and you’re

eating the regular things and you’re

wondering why you’re just you’re losing

your cognitive function so I’m going to

show you what to do to get it back and

fast it’s the simplest thing but you

really need to realize that it is a

blood sugar problem even though it might

not show up on a blood test and and

that’s probably why

when you eat sugar you feel better

temporarily but then you crash and burn

so we constantly are trying to raise the

sugar up when it’s kind of coming down

but your brain would be much better if

it ran on a different fuel source and

it’s called ketones and to do that you

have to consume you actually have to

drop your your sugars way way down it’s

close to zero as possible actual added

sugar and things like that and you would

compensate by adding a little bit more

fat but over time the consumption of

excess sugar and refined carbs will

decrease oxygen to the brain okay so

that’s probably one of the reasons also

why when you exercise you might feel

better with your blood Sugar’s because

you got the surge of oxygen and also it

helps to temporarily kind of adjust your

blood sugars also the brain becomes

atrophied it’s small over time with too

much sugar I mean what do they feed you

in the hospitals it’s all sugar right

it’s just it’s insane when I broke my

shoulder when I fractured my shoulder I

was in the hospital and you can’t eat

before surgery for a period of time so I

was literally starving and so I get the

surgery and then I am i wake up and i am

just so hungry and of course what do

they have jello crackers yogurt with

sugar i mean i just ate it and man did i

have a crash after that blood sugar

crash so i’m looking at this situation

it’s just like no wonder people have a

lot of issues with going to the hospital

and trying to get healthy right now here

we go

atrophy and then starvation so basically

sugar starves your brain of fuel or

sugar over time because you’ll develop a

condition called insulin resistance okay

so that’s that is what what’s going on

so what we want to do is you must do

several things we’re off the bat you got

to cut out the sugar you have to stop

eating sugar okay anything sweet you

have to cut it out including honey and

agave nectar all that stuff yeah that’s

number one number two

stop snacking between meals so those two

things are the most important regardless

of what else you ain’t I mean if you

just did those two things you would

probably do very well so what I like to

do is in the morning

I don’t eat unless I’m hungry so like

this morning I went till 11 o’clock

before I ate breakfast why because if

you eat when you’re not hungry

you’ll spike insulin and then all of a

sudden it comes down and guess what

you’re going to be hungry again you’re

going to be craving sugar again or or

just be hungry in general so basically

eating creates more hunger so 11 so

right now it’s probably around 220 and

I’m not eating lunch and probably until

4:00 I’ll probably little 4 and I’ll

have my late lunch I’ll probably just

had 2 meals a day and my body can do

quite well on that but the point is that

you don’t want to eat when you’re not

hungry

and then when you eat have protein

healthy fat I’ll put the links down

below with specifics and then you want

to do a lot of greens a lot of salad and

let a vegetable things like that you

don’t want to do a front grain also what

kills people is that going out to the

restaurants to often go to the

restaurant and it’s really hard to find

food without them bringing the bread

last night I went to a restaurant and

first thing they brought was the bread

okay and they put it right in front your

face well you’re already going in there

a little hungry right so it’s really

tempting for a lot of people the bread

and then you have the dessert and you

have the wine the whole thing

the point is that it’s very dangerous to

go to a restaurant and let’s hear your

blood Sugar’s are in control and you

don’t have a problem with blood Sugar’s

because look at when the blood Sugar’s

go low you’re not in your right mind

you’re kind of you’re not going to be as

rational you’re not going to be as

disciplined so that’s the danger going

to a restaurant because it’s too open

for the wrong options okay so anyway I

wanted just to create a video on this I

hope some of this kind of put things in

perspective but if you want to get your

focus back

have to fix your blood Sugar’s thanks
