Just starting Keto……Again!! My joints hurt and I have no energy. Even after 7 hours of sleep. I tried Carnivore but was constipated. Now I’m adding green beans and broccoli or cauliflower all swimming in butter. It’s actually delicious! I have failed many times at Keto due to strong cravings and no help from family and friends. This time I am determined to be very strict as close to zero carbs as possible for at least 30 days to see if it will reduce my pain an inflammation. Pray for me! 🙏
Congratulations on starting again! You’re going to do great this time. A new thing I’ve done with broccoli to spice things up a bit is to make cheesy broccoli! Since just butter gets boring sometimes. 😅
The last two and a half years have been amazing on keto. My health improved in too many ways to list plus my body has found a weight it really likes and has stayed there for 18 months. I eat twice a day until full, weight lift 3-4 days a week and walk for cardio. Not killing myself at the gym at all. I’m in my mid 50’s but feel like I’m 25. Diet Doctor and other keep me educated about how my body works and I’m truly grateful.
Good to see Andreas, a rare appearance these days. I'm six years in and the food is fantastic. Had keto french quiche today from diet doctor recipes. A delicious quiche. This way of life is totally sustainable.
wow such a short video with sooooo much information. I like the fact that he talks slow and not so fast like some teachers on these videos that you miss half the content. This is great. I now know a few mistakes i'm making. Thanks Dr Eenfeldt. I'm going to watch all your videos about Keto.
This pretty much descrives Atkins. I can't wait to get back to this. I remember when I did it about 15 years ago I felt amazing. Waking up not tired was a shock. I had issues being the only way eating that way in a family of 5 so over time I fell back to the normal American diet. I'm hoping to get back to it soon.
Excellent summary, it is fully sustainable with plenty of variety. Worked well for me, pulled my high blood sugars down, solved my very high blood pressure, and also took my weight down ( although this was not my prime objective, not being so overweight anyway). Has been superb for my health and metabolism.
Thank you so much, Dr. Andreas. I truly appreciate your help in simplifying the foods that are best for following a Ketogenic Lifestyle. Bless you, sir!
I've found that people are still eating when they're not hungry. Like 3 meals a day plus snacks just to hit some mythical target numbers. My best advice is to simply not eat unless you're hungry. Also...I would avoid substitution foods or Keto deserts while you are trying to lose weight. If you have a lot of weight to lose then you might have to limit these 'treats' to special occasions or avoid them altogether for a while when you're losing. Once you approach your target weight then you can reintroduce these 'treats' as part of your healthy eating plan.
Agreed. Dr. Jason Fung has excellent videos related to fasting on Keto and also says that any artificial sweetener will cause the body to release insulin and insulin is what makes us fat.
Due to bad teeth, and, gums, for several years, then finally getting them all pulled, and, now, wearing dentures, I just want to learn to eat again. My digestive tract is so messed up right now, I can't seem to eat anything without bloating to the point of vomiting at times. I'm only two months into this, stopping all pop, candies, cookies, bread, pasta, etc., and, feeling a little better, but, I think I may have SIBO. I'm drinking lots of water, teas, ACV, and, lemon juice. Added foods, and, took away foods. I'm on a small, fixed, income, and, shopping for these supplements, and, alternatives, are time consuming, and, in some cases, expensive. Doing what they call "dirty Keto" at the moment, trying to clean it up day by day, separating the good from the bad. Pray for me, cause without God's help, it's hopeless. I subscribed, and, thank you for all your help on this journey. May God bless you, and, your loved ones, and, keep you safe, amen!
I'm 65 and 180 pounds overweight. I've been taking a blood thinner due to arrhythmia from A-fib, and the episodes were getting worse and more frequent. So, instead of going to my GP, I went to a cardiologist. He insisted I take a blood pressure medicine, even though I objected due to the fact that my BP is still in the normal range. I gave in and took it. Well, the dose was so high my BP dropped to levels that couldn't be read on a cuff... and my chest felt like someone was vacuuming my heart right out of my body. I nearly passed out in the shower, and truly thought for a short period that I was going to die. My wife wanted me to go to the ER but I refused. I quit taking the meds and swore to never go back to that guy. Then I thought, if I am ever going to truly get away from these idiots, I'm going to have to lose the weight... even though I've been obese for 30 years. Otherwise, I would end up in their offices more and more as I get older. For the first time, I am actually motivated to lose weight. I went on a keto-like diet, cutting out potatoes and bread on day one and staying away from sweets, sodas, desserts, and between-meal snacks. I established some order to my eating habits. Two eggs and a banana or an apple for breakfast, salad for lunch and for supper a piece of chicken, pork or beef with steamed vegetables. My wife says it's extremely boring cooking for me now... but I've lost 20 pounds in the first month and I feel better than I have in years. My sleep apnea has lessened, my arrhythmia has reduced in intensity and frequency, and I feel energized. My food rewards are things like eggplant parm or a piece of sausage with some pasta... but not too much.
Seven years and counting, I'd really like to know where people get the idea that this is not sustainable. A1C hovering around 5.0 (from 10.2) for those seven years as well.
Everyone who calls keto unsustainable is a carb addict. They're so strongly conditioned to eat rice or bread, that they start getting withdrawal symptoms.
Thx for the great info Dr. Andreas. I have been working with a nutritionist over the past 2 months and she was good, but your video clips with the food list are fantastic and just what I needed. Keep up the great work - New Subscriber 👍
Great video! I’ve been following NSNG it’s basically Keto minus artificial sweeteners. One thing I’ve never checked is my ketones. I also don’t count carbs. I stick to proteins, veggies good fats, berries. Let’s be real I have sweets but not on the regular, the last time was Memorial weekend off and on. I can go long periods without eating, in the past I noticed I ate out of boredom or habit. What I’m trying to get at is can this be way of life and not be concerned if I’m in range or not. But I guess it would be interesting to know. Im difficult I guess.
Thanks for watching, Maribel! It sounds like you have found a balance that works and is sustainable for you and that is very important. As long as your way of eating provides you with the adequate nutrition needed for a healthy mind and body, keeps you progressing towards your individual health goals, and is enjoyable for you, then you don't need to focus on counting or tracking carbs or ketone levels if that is not something you like to do. Of course, maintain your regular physicals and blood tests with your doctor for consistent check-ins on important health markers.
I used to do bodybuilding and this diet is sort of similar to what I was told to eat if I wanted to get the ‘cut’ look and burn the fat off……..just the difference is I was told to eat small meals regularly….just cut out the fats and carbs….just comparing.
Oh my God you are the best teacher never seen .even though I hate diet now with your explanations I am going to try tx for sharing. If you are my teacher I would go to my masters classes. You are the best .tx
When I was young (And relatively healthy, outside of my food choices, 220 pounds and low HDL) eating excessive fat helped me. Carbs have an addictive quality to me and eating all the fat (And calories) I wanted was exactly what was right for me at that point. Because overcoming the carb addiction was very hard, fat was like methadone or another medication that helps with addiction. Then, I stalled, so I had to moderate this and that. Then, for years I've been at 50-100 carbs and now that I'm smaller and have more experience im in a position to moderate my fat. I think for a lot of people they're in medical danger or they won't stay motivated if the results are slow, but for me, sustainability was the key. I think some of my success has been because my emphasis has been on how I FEEL (Inflammation), avoiding binges, and exercising for my mental health (also inflammation. Interesting, right?) Instead of calories or weight. The appropriate choices are based on the individual. Health risks the top priority. But if you think eating moderate fat with the very low carbs is more than you can handle and quit, (And it's medically approved) then some people might benefit from only focusing on carbs at the beginning until they're in the swing of things. Please just don't go back to eating large quantities of food that are ruining your quality of life.
And remember, eating carbs isnt bad. They just won't allow you to empty your liver of glucose so you switch to the metabolic state of Ketosis. You can eat a cookie! That doesn't make you "Bad" but it takes you out of the metabolic state of Ketosis. And then you have to go to the effort to go back in. If someone tells you "Come on, just have one cookie! You've been good! Treat yourself!" You can say "I already did! I had jalapeno poppers!" And watch your life change :)
Over the past month I've transitioned to keto and I'm finally seeing shocking results. Also have begun fasting the past three weeks. Fasted beginning midnight Friday morning, didn't eat until noon Saturday (today). I try to stay under 20g net carbs but somehow I've gotten really close. Yes, I'm logging foods. I'm still way under fats. What can I eat that is high fat but low to 0 carbs? Also low on protein? I can fast the rest of the day but my other macro targets being under is worrisome... TIA
@@dietdoctor I usually do, but I'm needing some advice for today's issue. I do not exceed 20g net carbs, but I'm close today and short on my fat macro. I don't mind fasting the rest of the day even though I ended a 36 hr fast at noon today
@@heavensdevil2641 bowl of whip cream or spoon of coconut oil or peanut butter at the end of the day can boost your numbers. Also find a good protein powder if your protein is low
Freeze all your fruit....put in a blender, milk and zap it on high till it turns creamy....delicious! I use 1 large table spoon of protein powder with it. NUTRI-BULLET mixer or equivalent is best. Breakfast every day!!!
Something that doesn't correlate for me (type 1 diabetic with CGM) is that hunger/satiety doesn't match anything to do with insulin levels (rising/falling/whatever), but is directly correlated with blood sugar levels (high = satiated, low = hungry). Without the spikes in blood sugar from carb-heavy meals when trying keto, I actually feel hungrier and eat more (caveat 1: I'm not overweight and am not trying to lose weight - just trying to stabilize my blood sugar levels, caveat 2: All non-weight-gain negative side-effects of blood sugar spikes and associated [injected] insulin spikes match those that keto proposes to solve). Any suggestions here as to what might be going on - what could I ask my primary healthcare provider to look for or help me with?
Keto Is a powerhouse. If and when you decide to do this, < 20g carbs/ day, make sure you do some aerobics and get some good fiber. I feel like a super athlete when I get into therapeutic ketosis for several days at a time.
the main problem with Keto diet is the high levels of saturated fats suggested in foods such as butter and cheese. just cut out the high fat crap and eat plenty of frut and veg, cut down sugar as suggested tho. red meat not good either.
The whole idea of eating a variety of foods, while a very good one for most people, fails for those of us who have many food dislikes. There is nothing published for those of us who must eat carbohydrates. I am successfully in ketosis, after first failing, in spite of my food dislikes, and there is no place to publish what I have discovered. I tried to do this at the most popular ketogenic forum, and they banned me because they didn't want to know what I've learned. Is it really true that there are no other people like me, who have initial difficulty with ketogenic diets?
Does anyone know if i start this keto for the first time and i do it should i do it only for 1 month ? I heard its suppose not exceed six months ? So maybe one to two months then i add little carbs slowly after that
Thank you 🙏. I’d like to know what your take is on Ted Naiman and Maria Emerich’s approach to prioritising protein such as in lean meat. Dr Naiman says that a high fat diet can still cause problems with insulin it’s just that it doesn’t cause it to spike as quickly as say with sugar. But dr phinney said we should get 70% of our calories from fat. I’m very confused. Thanks!
Here is our guide to a high-protein keto approach. Our high-protein keto and low carb recipes and meal plans will still be around 60% calories from fat so not low fat. www.dietdoctor.com/high-protein
Can I drink Diet/Zero/light coke while on ketosis? It has zero cal, carb n sugar but some says the ingredient which is Caramel Color disrupts ketosis.. Another is I see sprite zero as a possible subsistute for coke since it doesn't have Caramel Color. Is it better than coke?
Keto is not a zero carb diet. You can have carbohydrates from vegetables and some fruits like berries. You can read more about foods to eat and foods to avoid in this guide. www.dietdoctor.com/low-carb/keto/foods
Hi Doctor, i've been doing keto for a week now and on day 3 I started experience a warm sensation coming and going through out the day in my belly near the top of it.. it doesn't hurt or anything just warm. Has anybody else experienced this?
I want to know the answer to this as well. What I guess right now is: 1) If you have the right metabolism 2) probably, but not as good as under 50. I hope the folks on diet do to answe this question
Below 100 g of carbs is a lower carb version, which is still better than a standard American diet, but it won’t get you into ketosis. Low-carb is what becomes ketogenic version, less 20 grams of carbs a day, spread out over your meals. If you are on any meds, better do lower carb version as many meds interfere with ketosis.
Dr. Atkin had a 40 net gram carb plan. It may work slower but may be easier to follow. You can purchase keto strip to dip in urine if you like to know if mildly level of keto are forming. I have been doing under 50 net gram and still get some results. From what I read if you use under net 100 gram of carb you will still be a lot healthier than 80% of Americans. Do try to focus on healthy lower glycemic index carb. Still avoid candy cake cookies. And also bread, pasta, rice, potatoes these four group spike my sugar. I know because I check my blood sugar with a meter, as I now a well controlled diabetic from eating too much food and 250-300 grams of total carbs for the year when the advice was low fat. At least I have lost 85 lbs.
There are differing levels of low carb. You can read this to learn about them and get an idea of which level may work best for you. www.dietdoctor.com/how-low-carb-is-low-carb
@@jameskantor0459 thanks! I was just trying to figure out if there is any real or noticeable benefit to simply keeping things low carb (under a 100, 75 etc)? I am not trying to lose weight. The other thing sort of confusing is how much fat - should you add fat or just get it with one's meat protein? Per Diet doc, I dont think you go out of your way to add fat but one does need calories.
The worst part of KETO DIET is must avoid A LOT OF FRUITS! This stuff is what I disagree mostly! General FRUITS is wonderful fuel for our human health! I am on keto diet but still eat banana on daily basis, sometimes drink orange juice! Very healthy ❤
@@MarkVA71 he mentioned to cook with butter but not to worry about trying to add fats to lose fat. I don’t have a weight issue. I switched to Keto more so to get away from SAD. I’ve tried bulletproof coffee and noticed it does keep me full for a long period.
@@steph6197 I’m trying to get away from saying Keto, the last conversation I had about this was a fail, the person said oh I can never stop eating bread etc etc. they love it to much. I love bread etc etc but the difference is over time I don’t want it anymore. I don’t miss it.
@@maribelquesada5651 I tried to explain keto to a friend. Her and her husband both want to lose weight and feel better. She said 'We couldn't give up bread, pasta and rice we like it too much'. 🙄 I wanted to say 'stay fat and unhealthy then'. Some people just won't help themselves.
@@janmargaret7972 I hear you. I do NSNG it’s basically Keto, no sugar no grains. I follow Vinnie Tortorich. He says exercise is a poor way to lose weight, although helpful for strength. His motto is put life into living meaning sometimes we go off the rails for a special occasion but we get back on.
Beans are the WORST! High carbs, and high Lectins-can lead to leaky gut. Green beans okay-small amounts. All other beans you should just see as toxic. Dr. Paul Mason has an excellent talk on this.
Hi Ray! It can depend on the type of bean and which level of low carb you are most comfortable with. If you are trying to stick to a strict keto diet of 20g of net carbs per day or lower, most beans will be too high in carbs to incorporate. Green beans, as mentioned, are a bit lower in net carbs (4g per 100g) and can be easier to include. This is a great visual guide if you are interested! www.dietdoctor.com/low-carb/keto/vegetables For those following a more moderate or liberal low carb approach, beans can be a nutritious addition to your meals. As always, it's important listen to your body and monitor your response to different foods.
@@MarkVA71 thanks for answering my questions. Like I said before I eliminated all the junk, don’t get me wrong I do on occasion eat something overly sweet, I do primarily stick to protein and veggies and good fats
You will want to keep an eye on the carb count and how that works in conjunction with the rest of the meals for your day. If you're stalled or not seeing the progress you would like, try eliminating that after dinner snack to see if it helps.
I have done Atkins (Keto) since 1992, except for about 3 years where I was strict carnivore. NEVER felt optimum, never had mental clarity, etc. In fact, always had cramps. My Hashimoto's got worse. I lost weight and put it back on, etc. Sleep was bad, blood glucose was 100 to 120 all the time. Wore a CGM for 3 months, did all manner of fasting. The only thing that worked was putting carbs back in. I worked with Eskimos for 30 years and know they lived off whale (watched a village drag one up on a beach and butcher it in the 80's) and other meats. But even though I have more Neanderthal than 90% of people, that was LONG AGO. A lot has changed. And I personally cannot live like that and I would rather feel good at almost 73 than be skinny! Good sleep beats looking "ripped" as you youngsters say. Tired of suffering for imaginary theories and rationalizing why an extreme diet is correct for all. I know many who do have to justify making money off it.
Its a shame that this didnt work for you. Perhaps some use Keto for vanity, but there are substantial health benefits from Keto. The are more benefits to be on a Keto diet, whether short or long term, other than looking good.
Hi Klaus, thanks for watching! I wanted to share our guide on ketosis in case you are interested in reading www.dietdoctor.com/low-carb/ketosis. As the others mentioned, it sounds like you were spot on! Keep in mind that the level of ketosis may not matter to a significant degree if your primary health goal is weight loss. These levels can vary based on individual and even time of day. Making sure you are getting adequate protein intake at each meal, keeping your carbs low (as low as works for you), and using fat for flavor, but not eating more than you need is even more important for success than hitting certain ketone ranges for many health goals.
HOW COULD KETO HELP ME? 🤔🍀 I have some challenges with innflammation (perio. in the gums and hemohorrids). I need to have my stools soft and cannot risk any constipation since the innflamation in the anus can create intense pains. I wonder how keto could be of help? And what is the correlation between the anus and gums? Are they not deeply connected?
@@pittsburgh-gal I suppose I was a bit disrespectful, but I was drunk... and I believe that entitles me to a full pardon :) Keto is definitely a big step in the right direction, for which I am grateful. But I think a low-carb P:E diet is significantly better (especially if you avoid alcohol...)
@@pittsburgh-gal P:E means a high protein to energy ratio. Do a search for Ted Naiman on RUclips if it interests you, I can recommend it for getting lean, fit and healthy.

You can eat a cookie! That doesn't make you "Bad" but it takes you out of the metabolic state of Ketosis. And then you have to go to the effort to go back in.
If someone tells you "Come on, just have one cookie! You've been good! Treat yourself!" You can say "I already did! I had jalapeno poppers!" And watch your life change :)
Over the past month I've transitioned to keto and I'm finally seeing shocking results. Also have begun fasting the past three weeks. Fasted beginning midnight Friday morning, didn't eat until noon Saturday (today). I try to stay under 20g net carbs but somehow I've gotten really close. Yes, I'm logging foods. I'm still way under fats. What can I eat that is high fat but low to 0 carbs? Also low on protein? I can fast the rest of the day but my other macro targets being under is worrisome... TIA
Our keto food guides should be helpful! You'll also want to be sure to get adequate protein, not low protein. www.dietdoctor.com/low-carb/keto/foods
@@dietdoctor I usually do, but I'm needing some advice for today's issue. I do not exceed 20g net carbs, but I'm close today and short on my fat macro. I don't mind fasting the rest of the day even though I ended a 36 hr fast at noon today
@@heavensdevil2641 bowl of whip cream or spoon of coconut oil or peanut butter at the end of the day can boost your numbers. Also find a good protein powder if your protein is low
@@gerbster14 Thank you! How long have you been living Keto?
Milk with strawberry, mango, blueberry, kiwi, apple ? Like a smoothie without sugar
Freeze all your fruit....put in a blender, milk and zap it on high till it turns creamy....delicious! I use 1 large table spoon of protein powder with it. NUTRI-BULLET mixer or equivalent is best. Breakfast every day!!!
Can’t make it simpler than that.
Great video however, the volume is low
Something that doesn't correlate for me (type 1 diabetic with CGM) is that hunger/satiety doesn't match anything to do with insulin levels (rising/falling/whatever), but is directly correlated with blood sugar levels (high = satiated, low = hungry).
Without the spikes in blood sugar from carb-heavy meals when trying keto, I actually feel hungrier and eat more (caveat 1: I'm not overweight and am not trying to lose weight - just trying to stabilize my blood sugar levels, caveat 2: All non-weight-gain negative side-effects of blood sugar spikes and associated [injected] insulin spikes match those that keto proposes to solve).
Any suggestions here as to what might be going on - what could I ask my primary healthcare provider to look for or help me with?
Keto Is a powerhouse. If and when you decide to do this, < 20g carbs/ day, make sure you do some aerobics and get some good fiber. I feel like a super athlete when I get into therapeutic ketosis for several days at a time.
the main problem with Keto diet is the high levels of saturated fats suggested in foods such as butter and cheese. just cut out the high fat crap and eat plenty of frut and veg, cut down sugar as suggested tho. red meat not good either.
How does keto diet affect your cholesterol and triglycerides?
I am a huge tea drinker but I use half and half. No sugar.
Happy Christmas
Well explained thank you. Getting down to 20g per day is tough!
meat, water and salt...that's all I have. Ok, sometimes a bit garlic and fresh herbs.
Sir can we use ghee instead of oil to cook food on a daily basis?? Pls to reply
Great videos, thank you. My question here is as a vegetarian, can I sub the chicken & egg for soya/ tofu/ paneer or Quorn? Thank you!
The whole idea of eating a variety of foods, while a very good one for most
people, fails for those of us who have many food dislikes. There is
nothing published for those of us who must eat carbohydrates. I am
successfully in ketosis, after first failing, in spite of my food
dislikes, and there is no place to publish what I have discovered. I
tried to do this at the most popular ketogenic forum, and they banned me
because they didn't want to know what I've learned. Is it really true
that there are no other people like me, who have initial difficulty with
ketogenic diets?
What about Baby back ribs? i put them on the smoker for hours and they re really good with salt and pepper and a no sugar dry rub.
Excellent choice!
Thank you
Does anyone know if i start this keto for the first time and i do it should i do it only for 1 month ? I heard its suppose not exceed six months ? So maybe one to two months then i add little carbs slowly after that
I never ate better in my life.
Sounds great and all …and I sure am hungry , let’s get started now huh ?!
They say keto affect the kidney in a bad way is this true?

What do you mean by "meat"? I'm confused, because the other items you listed were mostly what I would call "meat".
Thank you 🙏. I’d like to know what your take is on Ted Naiman and Maria Emerich’s approach to prioritising protein such as in lean meat. Dr Naiman says that a high fat diet can still cause problems with insulin it’s just that it doesn’t cause it to spike as quickly as say with sugar. But dr phinney said we should get 70% of our calories from fat. I’m very confused. Thanks!
Here is our guide to a high-protein keto approach. Our high-protein keto and low carb recipes and meal plans will still be around 60% calories from fat so not low fat.

Can I drink Diet/Zero/light coke while on ketosis? It has zero cal, carb n sugar but some says the ingredient which is Caramel Color disrupts ketosis..
Another is I see sprite zero as a possible subsistute for coke since it doesn't have Caramel Color. Is it better than coke?

Hi Doctor, i've been doing keto for a week now and on day 3 I started experience a warm sensation coming and going through out the day in my belly near the top of it.. it doesn't hurt or anything just warm. Has anybody else experienced this?
I've never heard of that symptom as a side effect of keto. However, if you're concerned, I would recommend checking with your doctor.
Are avocados ketogenic?
Low carb diet cured my anxiety - how?
if you keep carbs under 100 for ie., is that also healthy?
I want to know the answer to this as well. What I guess right now is: 1) If you have the right metabolism 2) probably, but not as good as under 50.
I hope the folks on diet do to answe this question
Below 100 g of carbs is a lower carb version, which is still better than a standard American diet, but it won’t get you into ketosis. Low-carb is what becomes ketogenic version, less 20 grams of carbs a day, spread out over your meals. If you are on any meds, better do lower carb version as many meds interfere with ketosis.
Dr. Atkin had a 40 net gram carb plan. It may work slower but may be easier to follow. You can purchase keto strip to dip in urine if you like to know if mildly level of keto are forming. I have been doing under 50 net gram and still get some results. From what I read if you use under net 100 gram of carb you will still be a lot healthier than 80% of Americans. Do try to focus on healthy lower glycemic index carb. Still avoid candy cake cookies. And also bread, pasta, rice, potatoes these four group spike my sugar. I know because I check my blood sugar with a meter, as I now a well controlled diabetic from eating too much food and 250-300 grams of total carbs for the year when the advice was low fat. At least I have lost 85 lbs.
There are differing levels of low carb. You can read this to learn about them and get an idea of which level may work best for you.

@@jameskantor0459 thanks! I was just trying to figure out if there is any real or noticeable benefit to simply keeping things low carb (under a 100, 75 etc)? I am not trying to lose weight. The other thing sort of confusing is how much fat - should you add fat or just get it with one's meat protein? Per Diet doc, I dont think you go out of your way to add fat but one does need calories.

Is it a good idea to cycle off keto occasionally?

The worst part of KETO DIET is must avoid A LOT OF FRUITS! This stuff is what I disagree mostly! General FRUITS is wonderful fuel for our human health! I am on keto diet but still eat banana on daily basis, sometimes drink orange juice! Very healthy ❤
Is bulletproof coffee not necessary since it includes added fats
@@MarkVA71 he mentioned to cook with butter but not to worry about trying to add fats to lose fat. I don’t have a weight issue. I switched to Keto more so to get away from SAD. I’ve tried bulletproof coffee and noticed it does keep me full for a long period.
@@maribelquesada5651 Same, and cream in my coffee does not break my fast and it keeps me full until I eat around 1pm.
@@steph6197 I’m trying to get away from saying Keto, the last conversation I had about this was a fail, the person said oh I can never stop eating bread etc etc. they love it to much. I love bread etc etc but the difference is over time I don’t want it anymore. I don’t miss it.
@@maribelquesada5651 I tried to explain keto to a friend. Her and her husband both want to lose weight and feel better. She said 'We couldn't give up bread, pasta and rice we like it too much'. 🙄 I wanted to say 'stay fat and unhealthy then'. Some people just won't help themselves.
@@janmargaret7972 I hear you. I do NSNG it’s basically Keto, no sugar no grains. I follow Vinnie Tortorich. He says exercise is a poor way to lose weight, although helpful for strength. His motto is put life into living meaning sometimes we go off the rails for a special occasion but we get back on.
I eat a lot of row beetroot it seem don't effect my keto
Are you eating beetroot for its blood pressure effect, or for some other reason?
How about beans??
Green beans are ok in small amounts. Kidney beans are a big NO. They are high-carb, plus high in antinutrients.
Beans are the WORST! High carbs, and high Lectins-can lead to leaky gut. Green beans okay-small amounts. All other beans you should just see as toxic. Dr. Paul Mason has an excellent talk on this.
Hi Ray! It can depend on the type of bean and which level of low carb you are most comfortable with.
If you are trying to stick to a strict keto diet of 20g of net carbs per day or lower, most beans will be too high in carbs to incorporate. Green beans, as mentioned, are a bit lower in net carbs (4g per 100g) and can be easier to include. This is a great visual guide if you are interested! www.dietdoctor.com/low-carb/keto/vegetables
For those following a more moderate or liberal low carb approach, beans can be a nutritious addition to your meals. As always, it's important listen to your body and monitor your response to different foods.
He mentioned berries are ok. Sometimes at night I’ll eat strawberries with melted dark chocolate with almond slices. Is this ok
Yes. Try having the berries in a bowl with some heavy cream added. Nice natural dessert.
@@MarkVA71 thanks for answering my questions. Like I said before I eliminated all the junk, don’t get me wrong I do on occasion eat something overly sweet, I do primarily stick to protein and veggies and good fats
@@MarkVA71 have you ever poured some HWC over frozen berries? The best🤗🌹
You will want to keep an eye on the carb count and how that works in conjunction with the rest of the meals for your day. If you're stalled or not seeing the progress you would like, try eliminating that after dinner snack to see if it helps.
No carbohydrates and sugar❤
I have done Atkins (Keto) since 1992, except for about 3 years where I was strict carnivore. NEVER felt optimum, never had mental clarity, etc. In fact, always had cramps. My Hashimoto's got worse. I lost weight and put it back on, etc. Sleep was bad, blood glucose was 100 to 120 all the time. Wore a CGM for 3 months, did all manner of fasting. The only thing that worked was putting carbs back in. I worked with Eskimos for 30 years and know they lived off whale (watched a village drag one up on a beach and butcher it in the 80's) and other meats. But even though I have more Neanderthal than 90% of people, that was LONG AGO. A lot has changed. And I personally cannot live like that and I would rather feel good at almost 73 than be skinny! Good sleep beats looking "ripped" as you youngsters say. Tired of suffering for imaginary theories and rationalizing why an extreme diet is correct for all. I know many who do have to justify making money off it.
Lol. How much did they pay you to write this?
I'm curious why you would stick with something for so long if it wasn't working for you?
Its a shame that this didnt work for you. Perhaps some use Keto for vanity, but there are substantial health benefits from Keto. The are more benefits to be on a Keto diet, whether short or long term, other than looking good.
We got a sugar industry shill here everyone 👆🤣 The diet is free, clown
The Diet Doctor is quite handsome.
Seems much more doable than carnivore. Especially since I can't have dairy...lol have to finish my junkfood first lol...or take it to work I guess

Hmm only eating what you said on that list for a year. Yes i lost a bit of fat. but never got in keto. roaming between 0.4 and 1.0
Ketosis starts at .5.
Sounds like your in ketosis to me.
If these are measured numbers in blood, you are in a healthy nutritional ketosis.
Hi Klaus, thanks for watching! I wanted to share our guide on ketosis in case you are interested in reading www.dietdoctor.com/low-carb/ketosis. As the others mentioned, it sounds like you were spot on!
Keep in mind that the level of ketosis may not matter to a significant degree if your primary health goal is weight loss. These levels can vary based on individual and even time of day.
Making sure you are getting adequate protein intake at each meal, keeping your carbs low (as low as works for you), and using fat for flavor, but not eating more than you need is even more important for success than hitting certain ketone ranges for many health goals.
