hey guys how are you I’m gonna let

everyone kind of log on here we are

using a different method today it’s

called punt a piece of our equipment

broke down so we’re gonna just go live

on my cell phones okay so I can

communicate and so when you call in

you’ll be able to call in and we’ll take

the questions Karen’s gonna give me the

questions and I’ll answer the questions

of course you can also you know type in

your questions right now so yeah so if

you can hear me just post I can hear you

that would be great okay good so hello

Elizabeth LaVon is here Lorraine is in

the house

Margaret is here that’s awesome and I’m

assuming YouTube is also working here so

give me a shout out if there’s any

YouTube guys let’s see here we go here

so oh and anything that I recommend is

not meant to diagnose you or replace

your medical treatment it’s just meant

to give you education so you can do

further research okay all right so

Michelle had a question is Quito bad for

people that have a stomach surgery like

in gastric bypass or or not actually I

think it’s really really good the

combination between keto and

intermittent fasting is what you need to

do for stomach surgery because you not

eating so frequent is gonna take a lot

of stress off that tissue so anything

surgery wise you need to do in a minute

fasting as a healing thing so that’s

gonna be really important all right so

all right Karen is it how do we look on

YouTube I just have a tension on that

that’s okay we’re just pulling YouTube

up now okay then I have a caller yes I

do want to call her okay great well we

have

taxes hey Ruth from Texas yeah and she

says her 76 year old mother has lost

weight with keto 76 year old mother lost

weight with keto for some reason she

doesn’t want all that loose flabby skin

so she’s want to know should she eat

more okay so she feels too thin how does

she stay in that that mode where she’s

building up her connective tissue well

here’s the thing the pro here’s the

problem with doing keto you may lose too

much weight so in that case you’re gonna

have to increase your fats okay increase

your fats not start increasing your

protein or carbs increase more fat have

big meals probably don’t go lower than

two meals a day like don’t go to one

meal a day just go to two meals a day

and spread them on a little bit further

and have bigger meals now another thing

with the loose skin is that if it’s in

the lower belly I did a video recently

on that lower belly pooch that you can

do reverse situps or so watch that

because you’re standing and you’re going

back stretching your abdomen to really

tighten up that loose skin in the lower

part so that’s definitely something that

you can do and then the other thing that

you can do is basically make sure you

don’t snack because in a minute fasting

is the main thing that’s going to

tighten the skin so I just want to ask

Steve for a second you are you and are

you sure that YouTube is on my channel

because I don’t see any anyone subscribe

yeah so what I’m gonna try Steve is I’m

gonna try something here I’m gonna try

this

cuz I think this is not working alrighty

let’s see now camera nice dream there

you go

next yeah so this is interesting

yeah thank you everybody

what hey there just hanging out while

we’re sorting things out okay so I’m

live yeah so yeah well let’s just see

for example because I want to know on

YouTube if you guys can can see me and

if it’s working so go ahead and let me

know I know Facebook thanks for your

patience we just want to get this

YouTube thing going and let’s see hello

how about that so it may take a couple

seconds to get this working you see that

really nice thing in the top of mine my

ceiling there all those cords hanging

out that looks wonderful so okay we have

a question from Donna yes how much

cheese can you eat a day should you eat

low-fat or full fat cheese Donna wants

to know how much cheese can you eat per

day in ounces or pounds and then does it

was the last part it should be low-fat

should it be a low-fat or a high fat

okay so the thing about cheese

especially if you’re not living in

Wisconsin is that you want to not overdo

it the cheese Jesus sometimes

constipating so that could be an issue

so I personally would recommend probably

3 to 4 ounces with a meal you can do

that twice a day and you should be fine

now don’t do the low-fat cheese do

higher cheese higher amounts of cheese

because I’m sorry high fat cheese like

brie cheese because that’s gonna slow

down the glycemic index when you do lean

low-fat cheese you’re gonna stimulate

insulin

and that’s not good so that is the

problem and I’m looking at Facebook and

we’re doesn’t seem to be anyone can see

me I don’t know I’m sorry YouTube so for

some reason we apologize YouTube hop on

to Facebook yeah I don’t know what’s

going on yeah yeah so we’re gonna look

at that all right give me another

question Karen Florida Stephen you’re

from Florida you had a question yes

it’s taking the adrenal cortisol relief

supplement is okay with the nutritional

yeast so one question at a time

and so one one if Steve wants to know

it’s a product called adrenal relief and

cortisol relief okay so that’s the

product I have if you wanted to know can

you take that with nutritional yeast

because when they cross over because

they both have nutritional yeast well

here’s the thing the cortisol relief

formula has nutritional yeast and it’s

pretty it’s not nearly the amounts the

quantity of regular nutritional yeast so

it’s good for stress but if you want if

you want if you’re looking more for

adapting Aikido and you want the full be

complex and b12 it might be better just

to do the nutritional yeast but the

other ones specific for stress because

it also has herbal stuff for stress and

it targets more the adrenal than just

the B vitamins okay Karen okay good all

right good I want another question okay

good blushing and was told to go down to

one meal a day and continue adrenal

massaging and supplements there hasn’t

been any change and not losing weight

alright Karen can you ask me that a

little bit like in a condensed version

it’s kind of a long question some sure

blushing chronic blushing eating

one meal a day but no change in the

blushing or weight yeah well if you’re

talking about rosacea or blushing

there’s a difference if it’s if it’s an

increased fleshing of your face that

occurs just randomly and it’s not there

permanently that is a problem with your

nervous system it’s part of the

autonomic nervous system and the

autonomic nervous system is has two

parts the flight-or-fight

and the recovery and rest sympathetic

compare so in that case you need to

support the Drina maybe with more

nutrition and it could take a lot longer

you probably be you’d benefit to take

the adrenal supplements in addition to

using the massage tool to do the stress

and I didn’t recently I did a webinar on

how to use that and how to take stress

out of your body you should probably

watch that but now let’s say you’re

blushing or the redness in the face is

all it’s permanently there it’s like a

constant thing they called that rosacea

that could be coming from a vitamin C

deficiency now either you’re not

consuming enough vegetables or you are

your digestive system or stomach isn’t

working enough to absorb the vitamin C

you actually need good stomach acid to

absorb vitamin C and you also need good

friendly bacteria to absorb vitamin C

that could be one reason and last reason

is that if your insulin resistant you

you won’t be able to absorb out them and

see either so that could be a big

problem okay so good question - and we

have a million questions here I’m going

to ask Steve can you comment on my

YouTube for me your end over there and

see if it shows up because I think it’s

working but I can’t prove it

yeah okay in the meantime we have Janet

who says she’s starving when she wakes

up in the morning intermittent fasting

is hard to start okay Janet is starving

in the morning and she says that

intermittent fasting is very hard to

implement can she do it from 8 a.m. to 2

p.m. can she do it from 8 a.m. to 2 a.m.

yeah yeah 2 p.m. now you know here’s the

thing I recently did a video I can’t

remember if I released it or not I may

have I may have not I don’t remember but

here’s the point some of you need to

adjust the the pattern around your your

lifestyle so let’s say for example you

need a lot of your energy in the morning

and the mid-afternoon versus that night

you may want to just eat at 8 a.m. and

then eat again at 12 or even 2 so you

start off here in him and fasting and

then you fast from 12 or 2 all the way

to 8 o’clock in the morning there’s two

reasons for that number one your stomach

is mostly acidic at 8 o’clock in the

morning so it’s ready to digest all this

protein versus late at night if you’re

gonna eat a big meal it’s harder to

sleep on a large fatty meal or a protein

meal so you might want to play around

with the frequency but yeah it doesn’t

really matter when you eat as much as

the pattern - I would fit the pattern

into your lifestyle what would work

better if you find that especially when

you’re adapting you’re tired in the

morning because you’re not eating until

12 eat and then just don’t eat at night

when you’re trying to wind down so that

might might work and gosh I think I

released that video but I’m gonna

double-check so I didn’t I’ll release it

really quick looks like there’s a plea

scare in common I have alopecia

okay I’ll answer that in a second and

doc tell YouTube

on private so we’re gonna end the stream

and come back up and see if we can do it

okay yeah just go ahead and end it we’re

gonna end the stream on YouTube and come

back up so we’ll work on that all right

okay so alopecia okay that’s where you

have this hair loss in different places

it’s called an autoimmune disease and

that usually comes after a stress event

it’s really the adrenal being a problem

and the adrenals are producing an

imbalance in your immune system because

the adrenals controlled the white blood

cell so when you actually lose that

control your body velop santé bias

against your own hair the way to solve

that is not with a remedy the way to

solve that is by going after really

fixing the core health problem that you

have especially the adrenals so I would

recommend get on key to them and a

fasting make sure you’re all your

nutrients there and the biggest thing is

do things to reduce stress long walks if

there’s some stressful thing in your

life

you’re gonna have to avoid that person

or thing and just because you’re there’s

no way you’re gonna heal from an

autoimmune if you’re a constant under

stress you really want to kind of be of

a stress-free life with putting in these

basics all right all right Karen do we

have any questions coming in at all yes

we have just now from Iowa okay she gets

a lot of cramps in her feet and calves

and has a history of joint problems and

patella femoral and plantar fasciitis

how should she address this well when

you have plantar fasciitis a lot of

people have plantar fasciitis and they

don’t really have plantar fasciitis

because it’s pain in the bottom of the

feet you know especially if it’s on the

right side it’s gonna be gallbladder

don’t ask me why it’s just gonna be

gallbladder working a goal better it’ll

go away but the point is that you have

inflammation you need to do keto in a

minute fasting hardcore because that’s

going to be the best thing to reduce

inflammatory conditions now if you want

to

fix the plantar fasciitis part what you

want to do is you want to stretch the

opposite side of the foot if the pain is

in the bottom you stretch the top part

of the foot so when you and I have a

video on this you can kneel so your your

feet are flat so you’re stretching your

toes downward not the calf and that will

really get rid of your plantar fasciitis

I really like that word plantar

fasciitis that’s a cool word is it

working yeah

Facebook Elliot is asking what can be

done for vertigo vertigo this is a great

movie vertigo know now vertigo dizziness

and vertigo is easier like there’s two

reasons for that number one if you stand

up real fast and you get vertigo

that is a classic adrenal because the

adrenals that cause your body to adapt

to the position of movement quick and

your adrenals are weak you can’t push

the blood flow up to your brain fast

enough all right good

so I’m on which one but does this work

okay good all right sorry about that

guys just working out these fun little

glitches so if you get up fast and

you’re dizzy that means it’s adrenal

okay so if you have and in that case

what you want to do hey youtube we

finally got you guys online if you

actually get up too fast and you have an

adrenal issue you can actually take your

blood pressure okay take your blood

pressure lying down and then standing up

you have the top number in the bottom

number you have the systolic top number

and the bottom number there’s a

diastolic

if you have stand-up what will happen

with your vertigo the blood pressure the

top number drops down by six 200 or 210

points normally it should go up so

you’re gonna feel like whoa I’m feel

dizzy just because of lack of blood flow

so that means the adrenals are low

they’re weak so you want to support them

I would recommend using my sleep aid for

the sleep because the sleep is the best

thing that’s going to put you into the

Delta wave sleep and start recovering

adrenals in addition you know do the

acupressure technique it’s on my webinar

under stress so you might want to check

that out good so now we finally got some

some people on YouTube YouTube and I’m

just going to click there yeah I’m ready

for a call ok Gerardo from Los Angeles

he fasts 24 hours because he’s not

hungry

Geraldo from Los Angeles Gerardo and

he’s basically fasting for 24 hours

because he’s not hungry thousand

calories a day basically he’s just

wondering should he force himself to eat

more he’s lost thirty pounds this is a

really good question Karen I was waiting

for this question and now you answered

it I asked it now you asked your ro ass

yes that’s right so here’s the thing

when you dookied on a minute fasting

you’re not gonna be hungry and you could

probably go for a long period of time

and your body is just actually in this

fat-burning mode if you have a lot of

weight to lose you B want to ride the

wave and go ahead and keep going more

than 24 hours the only thing I would

recommend is to take nutrition with that

whether it’s electrolytes or nutritional

yeast just to get the electrolytes in

there so you have some nutrients but

maybe not without the calorie the reason

for that is that your body is in a nice

state of fat-burning you feel fine you

keep going and maybe you’ll be hungry

the next day but that is a problem and

you have to make a judgment call if you

are going into this with nutritional

deficiencies and you go longer than 24

hours we don’t want you to feel dizzy

because your electrolytes drop and you

don’t have enough fluids with

electrolytes so it’s a judgment call but

you know it’s really up to you you might

want to experiment and go for a little

bit

but you don’t have to necessarily eat

that frequent there are people that I

know that do this they eat every 48

hours and they feel fine from it

especially when the here they spend all

this time and we’re getting the body in

the fat burning and it’s like almost

euphoric and they just can keep going

and going and going and going and they

just feel wonderful so that’s what I

suggest you do alright alright so Laura

Lori Lorraine has a question about the

benefits of nutritional yeast Karen she

wants to know what are the benefits okay

and the benefits are you get natural B

vitamins ok these vitamin B vitamins are

we’re gonna reduce your stress and they

act as cofactors Co helper vitamins for

all sorts of metabolic processes so they

prevent problems with protein digestion

they prevent your from your mood going

down but mainly what I’ll notice when

people take nutritional yeast is they

just have a stress relief they feel like

calm if you drink coffee and you feel

that jittery take nutritional yeast it

just gets rid of it if you if your

spouse is irritating you slip it in

their coffee and they’ll be really nice

to you so these are all these things

that you can do alright good

all right can give me a question ok

great so we have someone from YouTube

here says Sheila your YouTube videos

thank you

she’s 24 year old son who’s extremely

extremely extremely thin she says very

very thin and cannot gain weight help

ok so Karen said we have a caller a

mother who has a son that has a very

very skinny

he can’t gain weight and that’s probably

a really important topic for most of you

listening because you want to gain

weight right now I have a video on this

and the problem is you want to gain

muscle you don’t want to gain fat right

so

the more you do in a minute faster

you’re gonna get lean so if someone’s

younger and they want to gain weight

that’s gonna be a problem I think we can

actually make them healthier and we

might be able to make them more muscular

and just overall bring them to their a

balance but it’s going to be kind of a

lean state because if you want to fatten

someone up just go with the starches

goin potatoes and rice and beer as a

sumer sumo wrestler would consume and

eat that multiple times of the day but

it comes with a package the sumo

wrestlers they eat like very frequent

meals but they’re so-called healthy well

they’re not really healthy they’re just

exercising so much because when they

stop exercising they develop all sorts

of health problems they fall apart once

they retire so I’m gonna recommend that

for your son what he had three meals a

day no snacks but just really increased

the meals so he’s having large

quantities of food and a lot of fat to

prevent the loss and then start getting

him into an exercise program and even

involving weight training where you can

start increasing more weight and develop

the muscles that’s what I would do if I

were you but I wouldn’t go for the

starches all right all right so let’s

see Karen what do we got coming down the

pike okay good so we have Jessica on

Facebook who’s asking you to speak a

little bit about pregnant women and keto

is all right so we have another question

on Facebook regarding pregnant women and

intermittent fasting thank you

and kido well if you’re pregnant I’m

gonna recommend that you don’t do any

type of crazy in a minute fasting and I

would just recommend three meals but I

would recommend no snacks and I would

recommend taking the B vitamins or

nutritional yeast a and trace minerals a

plant-based trace mineral because the

trace minerals will prevent all sorts of

problems in a kid a growing fetus and

will eventually develop into a child for

example if you’re deficient in iodine it

can actually you can have a smaller size

brain and you can even affect your

child’s IQ

so it’s important to do the the trace

minerals or the seek help the other

thing is if the child is low in

manganese they can end up with flat feet

or even scoliosis so there’s a lot of

importance that we’ve been putting these

basic nutrients in there especially the

fat soluble vitamins vitamin A D and K

and I would recommend my daughter-in-law

is pregnant so we have her doing virgin

cod liver oil high quality grass-fed

butter trace minerals B vitamins but not

the synthetic petroleum based vitamins

that they give women prenatals which is

I just don’t like those at all where can

someone buy nutritional yeast you can

get it at health the store or online

it’s pretty readily I have it in a

tablet form you can get it if you don’t

want to take it as a powder good good

questions can I’m ready for another one

[Music]

again on Facebook and I apologize

because I cannot pronounce this name but

she gets watery diarrhea after eating

her vegetables alright no stool for

about three days all right he’s getting

scared of vegetables she’s lost 95

pounds but this has been happening for

three weeks okay so we have another

question about someone consumes

vegetables and they get pretty severe

diarrhea after that and it’s hard to

even form stools after a period of time

so in this case there’s a couple things

I’m gonna recommend stop consuming those

vegetables and you may need to start

doing small amounts of steamed

vegetables consume vegetables like

you’ve never eaten before word like

different types and see if that’s a

problem and then the last thing you

could try is fermented if that still

produces this diarrhea then you’re gonna

have to try to do get your nutrients

from other sources you know whether it’s

going to be nuts or mushrooms or other

vegetables things like that or

proteins because you don’t want to keep

doing that obviously your body doesn’t

have the flora and that’s really what’s

missing so you’re gonna have to build

that back up there’s a certain probiotic

that I’m gonna recommend it’s called

effective microbes I’m not going to tell

you what brand but you can just look it

up effective microbes it’s called eeehm

it’s a synergistic effect of all these

if like 400 different strains of

microbes that really help grow all the

strains of microbes and you take some

before you go to bed all night long it

builds up in your gut and now you can

actually digest a lot better now if you

have diarrhea there’s a couple things

you can do blackberry and some really

high-quality unsweetened plain yogurt or

kefir normally I don’t recommend that

for keto but in your case I would blend

it up in a shake drink that a few times

during the day activated charcoal is

another thing you can take for diarrhea

as well and that could it’s going to

help absorb poisons and toxins okay so

we got to talk to Mary now Mary is on

Facebook I am the opposite I am solid

I’d solid constipation I eat my

vegetables drink my water if I don’t

take meds I don’t go to the bathroom so

okay so now we have someone that gets

constipated constipation well the same

thing

those fibers in the vegetables are not

broken down by the microbes so you need

more microbes

I would I would consume steamed

vegetables to make it easier to break

down and then a portion of that have

fermented vegetables okay so that would

that that would be a lot better than

some of these raw if you if you

constipate you because you don’t want to

be constipated alright good all right

Karen what do we got okay we have a

caller Karen from Arizona Karen from

Arizona is calling in yes her husband

has dementia

he’s on keto Ania okay her husband has

dementia on keto and if’ yeah and she

added benefit to me

how much should he be taking per day the

tablets are 300 machines she added

benefit I mean benfotiamine is a

synthetic but very healthy form of b1

it’s a fats I believe I be vitamin

that’s really good for nerve and brain

function and vision and preventing the

damage from high sugar so how much

should he take well I would recommend if

you have dementia I would take four

times the dosage

so whatever the dosages up it by four or

even five times the dosage because that

way it’ll flood the nervous system with

exactly what he’s going to need the

other thing that I would do is I would

take the nutritional yeast with it to

make sure you have all the B vitamins

but if it takes a little longer to kick

in that just means that you have a lot

of degeneration going on but it will

tend to reverse damage on the nervous

system and the brain it’s great for

something called peripheral neuropathy

which is nerve damage on the bottom of

the feet okay good question though

alright Karen what do we got okay well

I’m reading a few different posts on

YouTube ok we’re on YouTube here mm-hmm

and these questions are I’m fasting for

days yeah I am doing keto diet and I’m

not losing weight and the question is

maybe should fast longer and longer but

aren’t there other reasons why a body

wouldn’t be different on a scale ok so

here’s here’s what someone wanted to

know they’re basically fasting for days

doing keto and they’re not losing weight

ok what are you gonna do in that

situation well if you’re not eating and

you’re not losing weight and then I’m

guessing you’re fasting maybe it’s not

like completely 100 100 % fasting like

24 hours a day because if you were

eventually you’re gonna lose weight when

you stop eating I promise you yeah but

if you’re fasting let’s say intermittent

fasting maybe that’s what you’re asking

in a minute fasting haven’t eaten since

Tuesday you’re not losing then I would

find out

are you losing size is your waist going

down are you constable

did I had one lady who came in she drove

her car from Michigan to my office a

while ago and she was she went once a

month okay to the bathroom and she

wasn’t interested in handling that

problem she was interested in losing

weight I said I’m sorry

you’re full of it literally you need to

get rid of your constipation so I went

outside for lunch and I looked at her

car and it was just lined with Cheetos

and Oreo cookie wrappers and all sort of

backseat I’m like okay so where there is

the problem right there so the point is

that if you’re let’s say you’re not

constipated then I would look at your

sleep are you sleeping do you have

stressed you have any other body

problems that could be preventing this

weight loss these are things that you

want to look at because if you don’t eat

you will eventually lose weight because

your body is in that mode give it more

time well I don’t know if you’re gonna

be building that much muscle and gaining

weight when you’re not eating

so because you need a certain amount of

protein to prevent the atrophy of muscle

so in your question honestly I’m gonna

say you’re gonna have to watch a lot of

my videos and get my book to get all the

details because there’s probably more

things that are going on then you’re

telling me at this point I can’t really

evaluate based on what you told me all

right good next question hormone versus

desiccated people ok so Karen had

another question about someone want to

know they had your thyroid removed and

do they take synthetic hormones or can

they take something called desiccated

thyroid which most of the desiccated

thyroid compounds don’t have hormones in

them they remove the hormones however

there are some extracts that do have

hormones natural hormones

doctors don’t like to use them because

it’s hard to regulate the thyroid

hormones because of the dosage they’d

like the synthetic synthroid so they can

really keep things standard and I

understand that but what I’m gonna

recommend is you’re gonna if you have a

thyroid removed you’re gonna have to

take hormones there’s no other way

because there’s no other part of your

body that makes this hormone so I kind

of like armored thyroid if you can find

it find a doctor that will regulate that

and do that because synthroid you know

it’s it’s like t4 and your body has to

convert it there’s no t3 and also it’s

synthetic

I mean there’s a lot of people that are

happy with that but there’s someone to

bring up about this Karen as so many

people are taking thyroid medication but

they’re not losing weight they’re not

seeing change so there’s something else

going on and it could be the conversion

from t4 to t3 in which case the liver

and the gallbladder needs to be

supported with bile salts so yeah that’s

just another point that you might want

to watch my videos on that alright good

you have another question Kerri yeah

it’s a caller Cheryl from California

Cheryl from California is calling in yes

she was drinking v8 low sodium which

caused a lot of gastric distress okay

she was drinking v8 with no sodium

create a lot of digestive problems love

the electrolyte powder and is asking how

much is needed do you really need 4,500

a day if she’s taking a thousand okay

she wants to know she’s taking me

electrolyte powder and she wants to know

do we really need forty seven hundred

milligrams of potassium a day right so

she’s taking about a thousand in the

electrolytes she gets about twenty six

hundred from food she’s getting about

twenty six hundred from the food a

thousand from the powder should she

worry about magnesium toxicity from all

the supplements plus

should she worry about the magnesium

deficiency or toxicity well here’s the

thing if you’re you don’t have to prove

my electrolytes you don’t to worry about

magnesium deficiency because I toxicity

because we’re not giving you more than

the recommended amount that you need nor

will you have to worry about potassium

excess because it’s 1/4 of what you need

so the combination of the electrolyte

powder and vegetables are gonna be just

fine unless you’re taking some

additional magnesium which you can

probably get away with taking more and

not have any symptoms but because it’s

really hard to become toxic with

magnesium what happens when you increase

my museum is you can start depleting

your calcium because they work together

and that’s why I like to always take a

blend of a lot of minerals but here’s

here’s the thing with that when you

actually reduce the frequency of eating

and you eat less frequent guess what

that requirement of 4700 goes down maybe

to 3,000 because your body is in this

conservation mode and it doesn’t need

the large amounts also you fix instant

resistance so you really absorb a lot

more than if you had insulin problems so

I think you’re going to be fine

the reason if the people that need a lot

of potassium even more than I’m what I’m

recommending are the cases that have

rheumatoid arthritis or they have heart

palpitations really bad or they have

atrial fibrillation where it’s a really

strong deficiency of this potassium and

then you just need a lot so again do the

best you can something is better than

nothing right Karen right so okay so

someone want to know is it normal to

have kidney pain a week into if’ well I

would really like to know where the pain

is because that so-called kidney pain

could be gallbladder pain but let’s say

is it normal no it’s not normal so you

could be consuming too much fat

and that could be gallbladder or it

could be that you’re not consuming

enough lemon juice so I would recommend

start increasing the lemon juice okay

because that’s going to counter any

potential for oxalate stone irritation

into your in your kidneys if that’s the

case

keep your vegetables high but maybe not

consume any spinach right now because

spinach has the highest oxalates and

that could in people that are

predisposed to getting kidney stones

create a problem but if you doing a lot

of lemon juice and you do potassium

citrate

it’s in my electrolyte powder but if you

do protection potassium citrate that

will also lower uric acid and uric acid

stones and counter the Oxus stone so you

got a lot to look out there and I would

watch my videos more on that but that’s

the quick answer all right and I’m

staying to it Susan and Facebook has a

question yes she fasting for 15 hours

does the fasting for 15 hours yes and

doesn’t matter what she eats she feels

extremely sleepy okay okay so what

happens when she breaks the fast and she

just starts eating she gets incredibly

sleepy and she’s already taking and

several of my supplements and like blood

sugar formula so this tells me two

things well one of two things one is

that either her stomach needs more acid

in which case apple cider vinegar will

wake her up because if the food is not

fully broken down with hydrochloric acid

then it’ll literally this undigested

protein will just bite put you out

that’s one case or the other other

situation is that you’re still in that

transition phase where you have high

insulin and in insulin resistance in

which case that you’re gonna have to go

longer with

you’re fasting okay go longer with your

fasting make sure that your protein is

not too high because that can put you

out make sure the carbs are low and then

just give it more time okay okay great

so we have on YouTube we have Maria he

is on YouTube yeah and this subject

comes up a lot what do you think about

not drinking any water during the

fasting this idea of a dry fest

okay so she asked about dry fasting not

drinking any water another good question

this comes up a lot dry fasting I can

just see this you’re telling your

friends oh yeah go see dr. Berg

you’re gonna he’s gonna tell you not to

eat eat a lot of fat and you know I’m

not gonna drink any water oh yeah I’m

gonna jump on that that sounds like a

great plan right it’s a bit extreme

there is some data that shows that it

actually can help people but I am mixed

on it because the average person that

goes in a dry fast it doesn’t like water

it’s probably already low in minerals

and so now what happens is we’re we’re

getting a nutritional deficiency

symptoms problem if you go too long

without water because you need water to

kind of hydrate and actually mix with

the minerals especially if you’re peeing

them out okay because when you’re even

you’re fasting it’s gonna be hard to go

24 hours without peeing

so you’re peeing all this liquid out you

have less fluid in the body you’re not

drinking any fluid in you’re not taking

electrolytes and you’re already

deficient a perfect combination to pass

out or faint so but if you’re healthy

and you’re doing this a while and you

have a lot of minerals in already in

your body well go ahead and try it but

as far as my recommendation for the

average person I’m not going to tell you

to do it there’s a lot of things out

there that you’re gonna see that that

people want to know is it’s going to

help you like taking a cold shower for

example will stimulate your metabolism

well try to get the the general

population to take cold showers it’s

good it’s like very painful but I will

say that when you put your body in a

stress mode whether it’s high

intense exercise you know starting keto

without or we’re in cutting off sugars

or going long long prison without eating

or all the stuff your body does respond

by adapting to the stress and in a

positive way so if there’s something to

it but I don’t think that you need to go

to that extreme that’s just my opinion

how do you like that answer

Karen I like it I would tell people all

right okay thank you

I’m the doctor’s wife the doctor’s wife

yeah okay so we have a Farrah from

Illinois is calling it Farrah from

Illinois is calling in mm-hmm

she just started you know and I have on

Monday okay start on Monday everything

was great for two days everything was

great for two days and she woke up on

Wednesday he could hardly move anymore

can she push past this okay I need a

little more data like when she says she

can’t move is it because her joints are

sore or she’s tired or what that’s like

is it stiffness because why don’t you

address the versions of food like

nothing has yes she she says she can no

food sounds good anymore after just two

days yeah well here’s the thing I think

when some people everyone reacts

differently and it’s why I recommend you

you jump it and just try it because some

people take longer chilled-out some

people adapt pretty fast where they’re

in fat burning and they’re like wow I

have no interested in food whatsoever I

like I don’t need to eat I’m fine I feel

fine if you feel fine and you don’t have

the need to eat realize you are eating

you are eating your own fat and that’s a

fuel source that’s very similar to food

and there are stored nutrients in the

fat like this specifically fat soluble

biden’s so maybe what you would do is

ride the wave because I don’t want you

to eat and feel sick so go ahead and

just keep going to the point where you

get hungry

but make sure you take nutrients okay

vitamins minerals things like that that

wait because that’s the purpose of

eating Karen is to get your nutrition so

if you actually get your nutrition

without the calories but you’re getting

the calories from the fat-burning thing

you might be okay in fact I think for

some people you know there’s a guy that

fasted for over a year

not not long after year but about it

about it roughly about a year did need

for a year and he took vitamins and he

took nutrients and he lost I think he

lost close to over I think it was her

over 200 pounds yeah

yeah but he didn’t eat any food so this

idea that you guys are gonna turn into a

skeleton or is I think it’s go overrated

I think we could go for a long period of

time think about in the caveman times

how long would someone go without eating

would it be more than 24 hours and

afraid look at the guys on naked and

afraid

Karen that’s a great point okay they

lose weight incredibly fast they’re

eating a couple insects and maybe a fish

here and there but they’re not eating so

but they couldn’t go a year no because

there’s thin I’m talking about a really

large person they can’t go they can go

for a long period of time if you have

the reserve but the key Karen is to take

the nutrition okay your vitamins and

minerals that’s what I would recommend

hey someone had a question about

cruciferous will that break the fast

oh no that’s not the question well

cruciferous count towards your carbs no

none of the vegetables will count

towards the carbs so don’t count those

in your net carbs or any carbs okay just

keep eating them and don’t even factor

them in an equation other than to eat a

lot of them all right Karen so there’s

YouTube it’s squirrel pass but wondering

if there is an age where gall bladder

issues are unusual so I mean I don’t

know gallbladder issues aren’t normal at

okay so someone that question is there

an age where it’s just highly unusual so

there’s a lot of questions out there

that are very personal and might not be

common someone want to know is there an

age that gall bladder symptoms would not

be expected right maybe a child or no

actually you can have gall bladder

problems at any age actually okay any

age and that brings up another question

Karen and this question has to do with

the function of the appendix okay no and

there’s nothing to do with the gall

bladder but since they’re both little

little organs that are removed quite

common because it doesn’t have they

don’t have a purpose I want to bring it

up Karen so appendix do you know what

the pen does care it’s a lubricant it’s

a lubricant okay it’s not for anything

okay so good so I tell you what this is

our first question of the day probably

our only question today I want you guys

to see if you can tell me what the gall

bladder I’m sorry what the what the

appendix does no googling okay no

googling to see what go ahead and type

it in there and then Karen you’re gonna

tell me what they find and what they say

okay so we got what is the appendix does

it have a purpose or not and what does

it do okay well don’t tell me yet

journey all right why you’re answering

that we’re gonna continue on here can

type one diabetic Dookie toe okay so Kim

asked a question of Facebook can type

one diabetics dookied oh now I just want

to say something guys I have 3,000

videos and almost every question that

everyone always asked is on there so you

can also type dr. Berg and does diabetes

type one do they needed keto because

they do need to Duke you know in fact

it’s the only diet they should do there

is no other diet because think about it

diabetes

one means that your pancreas is no

longer producing insulin okay so that

means your sugar is gonna go screaming

high so the more car you eat though the

more insulin you’re gonna have to take

the more times you eat the more I’m

sorry the more insulin that you’re gonna

have to take and when you take more

insulin that actually creates more

damage than the high sugar so we don’t

we want if you’re diabetic type one we

want to take the minimum amount of

insulin possible and so we want to not

stimulate or actually we don’t want to

release hardly any sugar in the system

if possible so we can take the least

amount of insulin that’s what we want to

do and you’ll you’ll be much healthier

in fact I believe and this is just my

opinion Karen that a lot of the damage

from type one yeah has to do with the

amount of insulin they’re taking more

than the blood sugars now that’s just my

opinion I could be wrong but probably

not yeah but I would definitely take a

lot of nutritional yeast to prevent the

damage also from the high sugar okay

okay good someone had a question about

lipitor in relationship to liver damage

lipitor is a statin and statins block

cholesterol we need cholesterol in the

body to make hormone sex hormones

estrogen testosterone so when you starve

the body of cholesterol because the body

makes it and it needs it what will

happen is that you’ll starve off

testosterone if if you’re a guy and have

those symptoms but then you’ll have a

lot of muscle problems you need

testosterone to build muscle so then

what’ll happen is you will have muscle

pain muscle loss muscle damage so yeah

that’s I do not like the cholesterol

medication at all but I’m not a medical

doctor and I can’t tell you not to take

it but what I can say is do some

research okay do some research and then

decide for yourself all right now Karen

I want to know what are we getting as

far as answers about my question what’s

the function of that little appendix guy

[Music]

appendix helps digest stuff it’s hard to

digest appendix may be a good place for

good bacteria they hang out okay hold on

care so I know one could hear you no one

could hear you so I’m I have to repeat

what do you hear me

No so because I’m over here so we’re

getting a lot of random things so I’m

just gonna tell you what it is and we

have a drum wall here okay so here’s the

answer here’s the answer it is there to

act as a reservoir for friendly bacteria

in case you need to repopulate the large

intestine with good bacteria after

diarrhea or antibiotics so it’s there as

a backup if you need to release a lot of

good bacteria it also is limp tissue

which also is related to developing

antibodies because you have the entire

gut Karen that’s it’s an immune organ

it’s like your first line of defense

against microbes so there’s lymphatic

tissue and it does have something to do

with immune immunity okay I can’t hear

Karen oh I can they can hear me just

fine what okay Wow thank you people this

is good this is gonna save me repeating

she’s here I’m repeating every questions

and I’m like oh my god that’s crazy all

right okay thank you

all right so my daughter has PCOS this

is from Denise Tara just started keto

will that eventually help with or just

kind of you lose it here okay well it’s

will help with excessive hair already

there or just prevent it okay

so if you have PCOS you need to do keto

and a minute fasting it’s gonna lower in

insulin which is then it’s going to

lower antigens and its yeah it’s gonna

reverse it’s gonna all the symptoms from

from high energy and will improve so yes

you’ll see some huge changes and insulin

resistance in high insulin is not

associated with PCOS it causes it make

no all right Karen what do we got okay

so I have Robert on YouTube and he says

he has really high blood pressure and

what is a this looks like a typo but

some kind of natural substance he can

take or what you do oh this is the

no-brainer so if you have I finally have

an easy answer that can easily answer

with confidence blood pressure I had and

I’m gonna answer it by telling you a

quick short little story of a guy who

just sent me this success to are saying

I I started taking potassium I think it

was sit right he was taking it blood

pressure went way down like within two

days goes to the doctor or I he’s gonna

go to the doctor and he’s like to ask

the doctor why didn’t you recommend this

because high potassium relaxes the blood

vessels it’s a physiological relaxer for

the blood vessels that helps elasticity

it brings the pressure down it improves

insulin resistance which which then will

lower insulin which is under behind the

high blood pressure because high levels

of insulin trigger the flight or fight

mechanism and also they cause sodium

retention so very very important

potassium potassium potassium to lower

blood pressure and then of course keto

and I’m in a fasting but that should do

it and you want to take little higher

amounts okay

yeah okay so what do we got Karen okay

so here’s one person Karen on Facebook

is it knitting she is not on keto but

this is her scene she has internal

electric tremors shaking that you can’t

see externally she’s had it for about

two years she is not a Kido she is

Hashimoto’s hypo thyroid and she says is

keto good for thyroid it appears to make

me more hypothyroid lower although she

says she’s not on it so I’m not totally

clear on that but take it away all right

so we’re getting a lot of or some

questions that are require a lot more

in-depth answer so I’m going to kind of

give you the thumbnail sketch because I

could talk like a half hour about this

because it’s like more in-depth it’s a

huge problem but there’s a couple things

when you have these tremors that are you

can see them or you just feel them you

absolutely positively need to do keto

and in a minute fasting hardcore the

reason for that is because you’re gonna

regrow the nervous system you’re good

because it’s a neurological problem

you’re going to regrow nerve cells and

brain tissue which is going to greatly

help any neurological problem including

the tremor or situation which is usually

coming from the brain the other thing

you need large quantities of is the B

vitamins you need to do a lot of like

nutritional yeast you can get them as

tablets but don’t forget to when you do

key to make sure it’s high-quality food

you know don’t just try to do it for

like with low-quality stuff because um

you to build nerve tissue you it’s a

whole package so that’s what I would do

and I think that would help you greatly

okay

you me yep okay

my dog there’s a cop ’no kapoor on

youtube her daughter her his I’m sorry

has a minor phallus some new ballast

emia phallus see Mia will intermittent

fasting help yeah you’re its condition

with the blood and the immune system and

what you have to do with the blood cells

and that you you need to do in a minute

fasting for sure and I’m going to tell

you what’s more important its

intermittent fasting that’s way more

important because the in a minute

fasting is the thing that will build up

your immune system it builds up the

immune system to the point where a lot

of problems go away that you might not

even think is connected including

autoimmune weird symptoms that you

didn’t know connected because you’re

actually putting the body into a state

of etapa G which it’s recycling old

damaged parts and cleaning up microbes

so that’s the that’s the most important

thing that I would do as a quick answer

the next question has to do is high

pulse rate I have a high pulse rate what

is that that is either you have low

potassium or low B one so take make sure

you’re including foods that have that

and your pulse rate should come down

okay all right

okay so we have Samira oh I just lost it

here from Belgium how does a number of

things going on but basically struggling

with indigestion for four years thinks

she has a parasite

she eats seventy percent raw she’s

Candida she can’t get rid of she has h

pylori histamine reaction she’s losing

weight but wants to gain weight and

she’s describing strong digestive

enzymes help but she has to keep

increasing the dose all right and I

think you guys heard this so I just want

to tell you for this condition I would

go after first of all acidifying the

stomach the purpose of the acid in the

stomach one of the big purposes is to

kill parasites and microbes and viruses

that are coming into the food like if

you beat sushi raw meats or fish and

they’re usually loaded with micros just

FYI I’m sorry to tell you that but your

stomach should kill it just like our dog

our dog couldn’t drink out of the stream

and not have any problem because

Charlie’s stomach is so acidic it kills

off everything so if your pH is too

alkaline you allow these microbes to go

in your stomach pH is too alkaline you

allow the microbes to live and survive

and innervate the lower part of the

system and that’s how you start getting

all sorts of parasites and things in the

stomach the h pylori microbe lives in an

alkaline stomach in fact one of the

mechanism is it makes your stomach more

alkaline so just by keeping an acid you

can keep it in remission or get rid of

it because a lot of people have h pylori

it’s just in an inactive state becomes

active when your body becomes alkaline

so I would acidify that and then by

eating poorly and losing the stomach

acids over time

would you acidify it well that’s what

she’s taking if I knew that would I be

seeing right here right now you too

you’d apple cider vinegar

you take betaine hydrochloride and you

need potassium to build the stomach

acids Karen you need potassium from

vegetables because the the little pump

that secretes hydrochloric acid in your

stomach is the potassium pump the worst

thing you could possibly do is to

consume a proton a proton inhibitor like

a like a anti-acid medication because

that’s just going to take you from bad

to worse so I’m just society know also

the other thing that we’ll do is

antibiotics will screw up your pH as

well but yeah you need to certify and

then take like garlic and oregano to

kill off the microbes that are in there

black walnut hulls are good for

parasites if you have them and clove

okay all right good questions yeah all

right so one question someone wanted to

know what do you do for chronic lung

infections or lung congestion let’s say

you have asthma or some chronic

congested lung there’s something that

works really good for this okay it’s

called cordyceps cordyceps it’s actually

a it’s a fungus that is in Tibet in the

high mountain range and this fungus has

a unique property of invading the

central nervous system and the brain of

the insects to survive and it starts

spreading well Chinese have been using

this cordyceps for ever for thousands of

years and what what it does is it

increases your oxygen carrying capacity

of the lung and it’s great for

long-distance runners performance

helping people overcome things like

emphysema asthma and it’s good for

vitality and its really good for adrenal

fatigue an adrenal burnout okay it’s

called cordyceps it’s a fungus

and you can do some research on them

alright another question is can I

continue keto with no appendix or no

gallbladder Wow okay so yes you just

need to take a little purified bile

salts and you want to continue it

because it’s the thing that’s gonna help

you greatly

can I take k2 without d3

yes but d3 actually helps work with k2

so what might be good you can take k2

with just and just get Sun and that

would be great I think that’ll be fine

all right Karen yeah all right what are

the question do we have do we have this

quick question if not I can find one all

right how does keto help people that

seizures in a major way epilepsy

seizures are purely a blood sugar

problem you switched to running ketones

and the seizures go away just go do it

healthily alright good to hear Karen’s

interactions thank you thank you all

right is there any help with nausea and

morning sickness yes that usually is the

gallbladder problem because what’s

happening is that there’s a change in

hormones and there’s also pressure on

the gallbladder and there’s a lotta less

space in there so I would recommend

consuming beets beet tops to help thin

the bile radishes are really really good

to thin the bile make sure you cut down

your fats a little bit and if the

gallbladder can flow normally the

nauseousness should go away in theory in

theory so go ahead and try that one more

thing okay you can also try activated

charcoal for nauseousness that tends to

work too if you needed something

go ahead Karen that’s my final and I’m

sticking to it

okay good so on you two

natalie is asking why does she always

wake up with a really fast heartbeat oh

I already answered that Karen today you

weren’t listening yes today hi Paul

straight yeah oh

pulse rate heart rate same thing okay

Natalie I hope your potassium and b1

potassium and b1 is the answer for that

and see you wouldn’t have to worry about

it that if you consumed enough

vegetables all right good questions guys

[Music]

okay ed wants to know what about the red

rice yeast for lowering lowering

cholesterol I can talk the red red yeast

red rice let’s readiness it’s hard to

say right exactly

okay so yes it is really good for

cholesterol in fact in some studies it

works even better than some of the

statins down there you just probably

don’t want to take it together with the

statin but the point is if you want to

lower cholesterol I think I would

recommend red Reese the red rice red

rice yeast if you had a genetic problem

with cholesterol okay

but if you do Q doing in the fasting

you’re not gonna need that at all fact

that’s why I took it out of my one of my

products k2 and d3 and I put in there

some purified bile salts which is really

cool because one of the problems with

people digesting fats I love vitamins is

they don’t have enough gallbladder

health in the bio so I put some pure

purified bile salts so when you take it

it goes in like a rocket ship

it’s the d3 in k2 so that’s the live

recent change that I made okay so your

skin is a protein vegetables are protein

your body can create protein do you need

much dietary protein well here’s the

thing if you don’t consume enough

protein if your protein deficient your

body will start going after your own

muscle proteins that’s what it’ll do and

that’s the problem there’s not a lot of

protein there’s not a complete profile

protein amino acid profile and salad

there is a lot of protein complete in

the full egg in different meats and fish

things like that and also you can get

some great protein from spirulina but

not necessarily from vegetables so if

you don’t consume enough amino acids

over like four four days if you don’t

consume enough amino acids your body

will start robbing your own muscle and

that’s one of the problems of people end

up with like a muscle loss but on the

other hand

converted into

and into fat so make note of that cam I

made it okay good and there’s a caller

who asks regarding keno and INF if the

if see there’s the understanding that

the body isn’t burning fat after a long

fast so their idea is the body isn’t

burning fat if you’re fasting for more

than 22 hours is it burning muscle for

fuel

okay so after you do extend it fastest

fast will your body then start going

after the muscle it’s gonna take three

to four days before it starts going

after your muscle because what will

happen is that the body will go into a

very conservative mode where growth

hormone spikes in a major way and growth

hormone is highly protective against

your muscle protein so in a minute

fasting it will spike growth hormone by

2,000 percent and men and thirteen

hundred percent women and on top of that

when you do at Apogee the body will

start recycling more proteins so the

need goes way down so I don’t think

you’re gonna lose muscle if you do it

for even a couple days but when you get

into three or four days probably you’re

going to start losing some muscle about

beans and protein that beans are good

protein yeah I’m not gonna debate that

at this point I think just do your own

research if you find that it if it works

for you that gives you enough protein

you’re happy with it go for it but beans

well the problem is the beans tend to be

high in carbs so we want to have lower

carbs am I saying that if you eat a

small amount of beans is that gonna bump

you out it really depends on your total

car so you know think with the

information make your own judgments on

that and see if it can help you I wanted

a question about can I do intimate

fasting with my regular diet well yeah

you can do it but just don’t expect then

the great results that we’re talking

about because first of all when you’re

consuming the regular diet that means

you

some sugars and carbs right so what’ll

happen it’s gonna be hard for you to get

in the ketosis yes you’re not going to

be eating and you probably think you’re

probably going to get into ketosis to

some degree but think about what ketosis

is it’s the it’s the reduction of carbs

to the point where your body is forced

to burn ketones so if you’re feeding it

carbs you might never get into a state

of ketosis where you see all the

benefits so I recommend you both but you

know that’s all I’m going to say about

that okay there are the next best source

would be sunflower seeds sunflower seeds

I noticed that yeah alright okay guys

have a lot of questions yeah does

toothpaste break your fast um no no it

won’t break your fast unless you’re

swallowing your toothpaste in large

quantities I wouldn’t worry about it now

now also this aligns with another

question will putting like facial creams

in your face break your fast no yeah

well why don’t you tell them what you

did to me the other day well I’m gonna

do a video about it so I’m gonna

surprise them but I Karen is my guinea

pig she’s a good sport she always lets

me do it’s with weather supplements

she’ll just like grab a handful take it

and not even ask me like what was that

and then recently we did a facial mask

with you know there’s always coffee

ground extracts that you’re rubbing on

your face with these facial which really

helps your skin I said wait a second

let’s do a green coffee extract Karen

let’s you can either grind the coffee

brains green

or we can buy the powder and then what

we could do is we could rub it on your

face and see what happens and it really

produces a nice complexion I was amazed

because you get all these phytonutrients

you get the caffeine in there on the

face it’s not gonna absorb in the skin

so I will be sending a video out on that

because it’s a great I think it’s better

than the ground stuff but you do have to

wash it off at least once a day

what are you daily must-haves okay so

well as far as eating goes I like my

eggs I like salad huge amounts of salad

I like olive oil high quality from Italy

virgin extra-virgin olive oil it’s

really good it actually just tastes

better and it’s a lot better amazing

as far as supplements go the must-haves

are the electrolytes and the nutritional

yeast those two are the key with that

all right let’s see do gym work to

double boost growth hormone and holistic

repair well yeah if you do intermittent

fasting when you workout and you do a

full-body workout you’re gonna on top of

it a minute fasting oh my gosh if you

combine the ultimate workout which is

sprinting which is will release seven

hundred and seventy percent of your

growth hormone within a minute fasting

and drop your carbs all at the same time

and you get a good night rest you’ll

probably be looking about 20 years

younger very soon because it’s a great

anti-aging thing so here we go Karen’s

gone guys

she’s she’s sprinting down the street

okay so you did other question Karen yes

I got several questions on Facebook

about hair loss I know you addressed

alopecia but regular hair loss on keto

yeah happening

well it’s usually a B vitamin deficiency

and if you take a look at for example

the number one remedy for hair is biotin

it’s the B vitamin so it it’s when you

actually do keto and in the fasting your

cells utilize more B vitamins so if

you’re deficient going into it you could

actually suck out that last bit and then

it with hair loss so you need

nutritionally yeast okay

certainly used to prevent hair loss if

that doesn’t work then what you want to

do is you want to do the trace minerals

okay there’s a great hair product that I

have it’s called hair formula that has

nutritional yeast as the B vitamins has

the trace minerals and it has a type of

collagen that actually feeds the hair

it’s pretty powerful has a lot of great

reviews so you could try that as well

listen guys I want to thank you so much

for coping with this temporary patch up

thing we did we seem to make it work so

we will be back next week with a fixed

machine right Steve photobomb hey hey

come on now

alright thanks guys have a good one
