hey guys dr. berg here in this video I want to  talk about low-calorie diets versus intermittent  

fasting the confusion that people have is they  think that it’s the same exact thing no it’s  

completely the opposite thing so low-calorie  diets actually slow your metabolism actually  

it ruins your metabolism it’s it takes  the setpoint and it raises it so before  

you could get your weight down to this way now  it keeps rising and it was just like your body  

gets comfortable at a certain weight like say  185 pounds and you can’t seem to get below that  

in a minute fasting if done correctly speeds up  your metabolism it lowers as a setpoint it allows  

your weight to go down it’s the only thing that  I know them as a tool that you can fix and heal  

your metabolism okay so low calorie diets create  a breakdown of muscle tissue it makes you weaker  

over time intermittent fasting causes improvement  in muscle and it retains protein and muscle tissue  

and that’s because of the hormone called growth  hormone that’s triggered when you do in a minute  

fasting okay low calorie diets caused cravings  to carbs and sweets it also keeps you hungry  

because it’s depriving you intermittent fasting  you have no cravings you have no hunger so the  

way that you know that you’re in intermittent you’re actually doing this correctly is when  

your cravings go away if you’re going to do a  program then your craving you’re not doing it  

correctly and you’re not really in fat-burning  when you’re doing this low calorie diets do not  

put a person in fat-burning intermittent fasting  does put a person in fat burning because it  

influences hormones low-calorie diets ignores  the hormone aspects of what calories influenced  

so they don’t look at how food triggers hormones  insulin cortisol estrogen the basically saying  

all calories are the same just eat in moderation  just reduce your overall calorie bad advice intermittent  

fasting done correctly looks at the hormone  aspects like specifically insulin because when you  

do intermittent fasting you’re eating and then  you’re not eating and then you’re eating and  

you’re not eating so you when you don’t eat you  don’t trigger insulin when you do low calorie  

diets a lot of times you’re grazing and you’re  snacking but you’re having just little amounts  

of that thing low calorie diets typically ignore  the nutrients in the calories these kind of look  

at again a calorie is a calorie but there’s  certain calories that are more nutrient-dense  

than others right so that’s the difference so  this is basically reduction of calorie this  

is a reduction of frequency of eating this is  not lowering your your calories when you eat so  

when you do intermittent fasting correctly you  want a meal of course that doesn’t have sugar  

you want a meal that has healthy fat you want a  meal that has a moderate amount of protein and  

you want a meal that is nutrient-dense a lot of  vegetables but you’re never going to be cutting  

calories you’re going to have a nice big meal  menu that’s suppose to get you to switch over  

to fat burn when you’re not eating going for a  long period of time we’re really talking like  

if you did three meals a day or even twice a  day and then not eating between them that’s  

the form of intermittent fasting but I just want  to clarify the difference so you really get this  

this is really bad this is really good alright  thanks for watching put your comments below
