@@drekberg i am T2D but controled with LCHF diet. I was reading a article that every T2D have beta cell dysfunction, ratio may vary patient to patient and also it is progressive it BG is not controled. If you share knowledge with us on this topic it is highly appriciated. Thanks
That has not been my experience. Some T2D's can develop antibodies to pancreas over time and become what is sometimes called Type 1.5. Sometimes the pancreas can just wear out from overwork and malnutrition, but fortunately the pancreas is rarely the problem in T2D in my experience. Sometimes people say stupid things like "The pancreas is not making enough insulin to keep blood sugar down", and they are assuming that there is pancreatic dysfunction, but the insulin is only insufficient because of massive IR and tons of carbs.
I love this analogy. I am severely insulin resistant and very frustrated. These videos are really helping me. My healthy whole eating is starting to work with my long, steady walks and strength training. I have lost 100 pounds, but have another 60 to go.
By speaking slowly and clearly, and using figurative language effectively here, you are able to simplify this topic. Your method aids not only in the understanding of insulin resistance, but also in remembering the details of what is actually going on between the cells and insulin. I will always remember the frustrated cells and the annoying salesman!!
I am 30 year old guy.. I was diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes in Dec 2022.. when the first time I got tested my A1C was 11.5.. I was put on Metformin first 2 months and then on Janumet 1000 mg daily dose, three months later my A1C is 5.9!!! This is due to combination of exercise (only walking 20 mins avg daily), healthy diet (watching my Carbs intake), more fibers and green veggies. My point is.. if we know the mechanism behind these diseases, which is lucidly and interestingly explained by Dr. Sten(thanks to him), helps control your blood sugar and keep things in check.. My goal is to get off medication and to be able to balance demand and supply of blood sugar and the insulin... cheers!!!!

Never a doctor has made it so simple for me to understand what diabetic is and how it works. Thank you so much for this video. I am a diabetic for 21+ years and have to use Metformine and insuline. Afther a year of eating vegetarian, i did not lose weight and did not gain any weight, but i had to use more and more insuline... 18 months ago i started to eat meat again and surprizingly i loosed weight... 13 kilo's in 5 months and then it stopt. Slowly i have loosed 5 more kilo's in the last year, so now i found the Keto way of eating and hope to lose weight again, in the first place to get and stay healthy so i get rid of the diabetes and all the medication i must use. Thanks again for this video.
Dr. Ekberg the way you used Insulin as a sales person and the entire example to explain insulin resistance has helped me really understand.

I'm a retired RN. I was diagnosed with Myotonic Muscular Dystrophy(MMD) 7 years ago. MMD causes severe insulin resistance. My doctors just want me to take insulin or some other super expensive drugs. Finally I stopped the insulin and glimepiride. Now I only take 2 grams of Metformin and Invokana. My last A1C was 8.1, down from 11. I've started Keto with IF and trying for OMAD with occasional 2-3 day fasts. My blood sugar is now pretty much normal. My highest postprandial(after eating) blood sugar has been 137. My fasting blood sugar has varied between 63 and 108. I thought Keto and IF were just a fad, but they have really worked for me. I worked in surgery my entire career, so diabetes was not an area of specialty for me. You have confirmed many of the ideas I've had about my "diabetes" for quite some time. Thank you so much for your videos. They have been very helpful.
I just discovered you and I think you are one of the BEST trainers on Keto, IF, and IR. I've been following Dr. Berg, Dr. Fung, Dr. Berry, Thomas DeLaur and Dr. Boz etc. but I find your videos to be more thorough and more educational. You provide a great deal of information in a very easy-to-understand manner. Can you please talk about the effects COFFEE w/ people who are very IR. All articles on coffee says in decreases appetite but I'm very IR and have been doing IF 18/6 w/ Keto for 5 months and I drink black coffee in the morning it increases my appetite. I can only have coffee w/ a fat added once I start my meal or II'm just brutally hungry and "hangry". Please explain why that is happening. There are no videos on that subject.
Finally I understand why after intermittent fasting and drinking a glass of apple cider vinegar everyday I no longer need to take glipizide. Thanks Doc!
This is a wonderful description on how Insulin Resistence works. Gosh why can't our doctors do this instead of presribing $$$ drugs, also why are so many people totally accepting their diabetes 2 and not run to the library to start learning... I went to Costco the other day and one big lane of parking was dedicated tohandicapped parking. Used to be elderly frail people now you see most people parking there extremely obese then usung the handicapped shopping carts that the store also has many of, at 10 that I counted. Diabetes T2 is a epidemic in America equal to the opioid addiction.
Thank you A B. When you say "library" I'm sure you are referring to my video library, right? LOL I know what you mean though. It's tragic. I think the same thing when I see all the handicap parking and all the scooters at Walmart. If people only knew...
@@drekberg your videos are fantastic I am learning so much and I encourage people to look at them but sometimes they distrust the internet so I say start at the library. I appreciate your work.
I wish people wouldn't be so judgemental. We don't know their/anybody's stories. Just like we don't know what goes on behind closed doors. I already have anxiety issues at times. I hope everyone's not judging me! I'm not obese but I park in a handicapped parking lot because I'm a wheelchair user. I'm a paraplegic T-4/5 complete due to a car crash decades ago.
I have fibromyalgia, pcos, lymes, ibs, chronic fatigue. I started taking some vitamins my midwife told me to take postpartum and noticed I started feeling better. So then I incorporated IF and felt a little more better, though I wasn't eating great. My next step was to eat better, but I wanted to make sure the food I'd be eating was a sustainable switch for my husband as well. Then my mom sent me one of your videos, and I've been watching all of them. Thank you so much for putting this information out. I'm the kind of person that can't really do something without a good explanation, so this has been so helpful for me. Once I'm not in so much pain I'll be starting exercise. I really feel like I'm on the road to recovery, finally.
That was so great!! I’m forever going to picture insulin as that stick figure dude with the sinister grin ☺️ and the disguise 🥸 knocking at my cell doors... 🚪😁🤣🤣🤣🤗
Best explanation of Insulin Resistance and what Insulin’s job is that I’ve ever heard. You made it si easy to understand and remember. My little pea brain thanks you! Your videos are always appreciated!
That’s because of the following I. He’s using direct instruction 2. We are interested in the subject. Kids wouldn’t pay attention to him for 5 mins. They’d be on their phones.
@@Sirach144if you had had access to a phone at their age you would be on it too. There is nothing wrong with these kids. This would be boring as heck to a child.
Thanks, educative video. I do use 2tbs of ACV at least three times a day at morning, before I eat a main meal and before I go to sleep at night. My endocrinologist said my HgbA1C is doing great he indicated I should keep doing what I am doing. This change is all due to you ,Dr. Berg and Dr. Fung that educate us. But, of all the medical experts online your videos are in layman’s terminology that is easily accessible to all. You saving a lot of people lives. Good job.
After having consumed copious amounts of similar content, I actually learned a lot. Thank you for bridging the gap from novice to the Technical, where we should all be moving towards.
Thank you John Negri. I really appreciate your feedback and so glad that you liked it. The purpose of my channel is to explain things better than other channels and help people understand the principles. Comments like yours makes it all worthwhile.
Chanced upon one clip on this about 3+ months ago. Decided to try it about 6 weeks ago. Followed the regime strictly. Today is the 4th I got off acv. All my 3 daily readings the last 3 days are back to normal. Amazing.
This video was so fascinating! I wonder why doctors throw around the term 'insulin resistant' but never explains why the body becomes insulin resistant? Well, now I know. Thank you so much for posting!
Because they don't even know themselves...I find most doctors to be ignorant about anything that does not have to do with prescribing pills and antibiotics.
this dude is awesome!! i'm in my 30s and started having problems that i couldn't explain. Listening to him now makes sense of everything. thank you dude!!
Such a benefit to listen to someone who actually knows what they are talking about, I have been learning so much and appreciate all the information available through these videos. Thank you so much

If it wasn't for ACV I wouldn't have had my one and only child at 44. It was an essential part of my child's fathers healing and reversing his pre-diabetes. We both stopped in the same aisle of the supermarket to look for it. The rest as they say was history lol. Thank you for the wonderful explanation. After healing adrenal and thyroid issues, I have some metabolic damage to work on, being too exhausted to eat and bouncing from feast to famine continuously I am almost positive has lowered my BMR to well below what I can estimate online. I also have some cellular detoxing to do, I am sure. I'm seven weeks into a Ketogenic diet as well as other protocols such as infrared sauna, coffee enemas, and a number of fasting protocols from IF, to ADF to extended fasts. I know I have to be patient but it is so frustrating to work so hard and have it take sooooooo long to see so little obvious improvement. I have to remind myself daily the healing is structural and just because I can't see it doesn't mean it isn't happening. I know I'm doing everything right. ACV is definitely part of my daily routine and I love it. Thanks again, great video.
Tremendously brilliant analogy. I find Dr. Ekberg's videos very interesting and educative. The thing really is that for me, sugar is just like water. Having to stop using sugar has taken a severe toll on me. Tea, coffee, snacks, ... But for the one reason that this prediabetes can degenerate into kidney problems, I had never imagined myself quitting sugar or even cutting down on the amount I consume daily. I have adopted exercises, & I have reduced the amount of sugar I use by a lot and it's working. I think I'll try ACV to knock the IR once and for all. Well done!
Thank you for the excellent video. I have been T2D for over a decade. I have been on an essentially keto diet (intermittent fasting 16/8) for 18 months and had stalled after losing 30 kg from a start of 130. Since commencing ACV before each of my 2 meals a day my appetite has reduced so much that I have been able to halve my intake and drop a further 8 kg (in about a month). You don't mention it's appetite suppressant action in any of the videos I've seen and I wondered if you or others were aware of it?
I put two tea spoons of ACV and two tea spoons of lemon juice in my 16oz Yeti cup fill the rest up with a bottle of Aquafina and this has become my favorite drink! I do this 3 times a day sometimes a fourth time at bedtime 😁 Ketogenic diet 3weeks and going strong with the 18/6 intermittent fasting , I’m down 10 lbs ! Thank You Dr EcBerg for all your knowledge and sharing of it!
Dr thank you for the thorough explanation, appreciate it. I would love to see a video on “Keto for beginners” or something to help with the challenges that one might come across at the beginning. I’m 8 days into Keto and have had some not so nice side effects like 1) excessive peeing (especially at night much worse) 2) horrible sleep 3) extreme thirst that I can’t seem to get rid of.... On the flip side I’ve had some great positives like joint pain completely disappeared, but anyway I’d love something for the beginners that maybe goes through the challenges and what to do when the negative things pop up. Thank you for listening 🙏👏🏼
You need electrolytes. Your body's flushing out a lot of inflammation (swelling / liquids) and you're getting dehydrated. Use more salt in your food. You may not be fat-burning adapted yet and you're Hungry (hunger always interferes with my sleep). Don't give up just yet. & make sure you're doing it right, no hidden carbs preventing the adaptation. I like Health Coach Kait. She has nice short videos that give all the Important points on keto. Dr Sten is great, but sometimes it's too much info for us to absorb all at once and we can miss the Main Points. Sometimes when you drink too much liquids, they "dilute" the electrolytes in your system, and you urinate too much and make dehydration worse. So get those electrolytes, and not the drinks that have sugar added. Refined carbs/high blood sugars make us retain a lot of water, you're now doing the opposite getting into ketosis. I think that's the main reason why I lost so much weight so fast on keto. Maybe everyone is like that.
There you are! There's always at least one of you trying to crap in people's cornflakes. We have an intelligent creator. There is no denying it legitimately.
@@erinm3567 Actually we don't know & haven't confirmed that. There are people who claim to know, but they're just professing their opinion. If some god does exist, then it used evolution via natural selection to "create" us.
Dear Dr Ekberg, A Fantastic explanation of a very subjective matter insulin resistance. I have heard many who tried explaining IR but it could not register. What did the job was your illustration of supply and demand, this drove in the point for me. Thanks
Thank you Rooben Doraisamy. I really appreciate your feedback and so glad that you liked it. The purpose of my channel is to explain things better than other channels and help people understand the principles. Comments like yours makes it all worthwhile. also check out my video 6 secrets of reversing insulin resistance😀
Dr ekberg chromium is necessary for the pancreas to produce insulin! It is also necessary for the insulin to get the glucose into the cell! The daily recommended dose does not take into account how much in the system. Needs to be adequate amount in the system! Chromium is the key to insulin getting glucose in the cell! The key to counter resistance!
Dr.Ekberg, thanks for your medical educational process, much appreciated and grateful for your continuous efforts. Please continue educating and protecting us layman who are victims of the evil mainstream medical practitioners. .
Dr I recently started following your channel are the master of explaining many issue Your style is perfect in understanding The best teacher ever Thank you sir
OooooooohMyGoodness my sister told me to take Apple Cider Vinegar and Honey but forgot to mention I needed to add water! My throat was on FIRE...................lol I learned to research things more after that😂😆!
Oh Tonka, what did your human do? Although if you feel like sharing natural remedies dear human, that you use with Tonka, me and Keisha the husky are doing a similar home made diet and skin medication for her common husky troubles. We’d be up for some opinions from Tonka. (Keisha mostly likes the fats and oils part for food and baby oil on her skin.)
So the doctors give the drug without recommendations about changing the diet!!? Where I come from, diabetes patients have to restrict eating bread, rice, drinks, juice, fruit! when my aunt got it she lost a lot of weight!! she was doing Keto without knowing hahaha
So much knowledge here. Dr Ekberg deserves at least the attention and subscribers Dr Berg has. In my opinion Dr Ekberg takes it to another level with a crisp and potentially life transforming message for the masses.
I feel Dr. Ekburg is a lot more in-depth and detailed than Dr. Berg, while still keeping his videos relatively short and concise. And he breaks the medical jargon down into layman's terms, often using very helpful analogies!!
Love how you use the analogy to break it down for all of us thank you. Helps all understand her w the body works! I don’t have weight or insulin issues …. I started OmAd or 2 mad by your teachings
Interesting explanation! Certainly (low carb) food for thought! My understanding of Metformin is that it inhibits gluconeogenesis but does not affect glucose uptake by the cells... Are there new studies that show it boosts uptake as you say?
I'm cutting out sugar, bread pasta, rice and going on a mix of high fat, low carb paleo and intermittent fasting. I will reintroduce carbs slowly and in lower quantity. I wish I knew this years ago.
I really enjoy your explanations in all of your videos that makes so much sense to the lay person! Just the other day my cardiologist said that insulin resistance doesn't stop a person from losing weight and that it is all about calories and movement in a sharp tone. I have just recently start ACV and will see how that works with my pretty strict keto plan. My primary PA mentioned Berberine a few months back because my A1C is still at 5.6-7 and doesnt seem to budge. I have not been diagnosed by anyone that I am diabetic but in research agree that I am definitely pre-diabetic/insulin resistant. I am only 55 and its been extremely hard to lose any weight for years. What do you say about Berberine in helping insulin resistance?
Excellent analogy. Thank you Dr Sten Ekberg. I finally GET it. If your aim is to explain better than others you certainly succeed. Your way of explaining is succinct and simple but sucessful. Very much appreciated from Australia.
I am taking ACV regularly from couple of days. It helped my gout problem. Now no medicine,only two spoon of ACV in a large glass of water early moring.
Measure Ketones, when insulin goes down you are less resistant. When insulin is down ketones goes up. If you eat only twice a day no snacks low carbs food within 6 hours then fast 16 hours, you will deacrease you insulin resistance. Follow you ketones level, the higher they go up the less resistant you are the more weight you lose. Thanks.
Dr Ekberg, can you talk about what to do when you have many things wrong with you and you want to fix them but you don't know what to fix first? For example, you have hypothyroidism, Hashimoto's autoimmune disease, non-alcoholic liver disease, non-allergic rhinitis, insulin resistance, suspected leptin resistance, elevated cortisol caused by a highly stressful job, high blood pressure e.g., in the 140/90 range, maybe gut issues thrown in there as well. I have not found a video that talks about what to do when a person faces multiple health issues.
Very enlightening video. Thanks for educating us. Yes, low carb is the only way to go. ACV, cinnamon, fenugreek, bitter melon etc., will all help to improve the cell's response to insulin, but not in the presence of high glucose levels.
Excellent description of T2D problem however the cure to help getting out of insulin resistance is fasting. I stopped taking my drugs and fasted for 24 hours and exercised and kept an eye on my blood sugar and have stayed off my drugs by not eating after 6pm and next meal lunch of zero carbs omelette with fried chopped cabbage. Supper meat with raw vegetables. Still no drugs. I understand that boiled potatoes potatoes with ACV can lower their glycemic value haven’t tried it yet. But this fasting 16hrs and only eating lunch and supper no carbs is working.
Thank you, Dr Ekberg, for your lucid explanations. You are a voice in the wilderness which, thank God, is getting louder! Years of misinformation from the Gov’t. and their medically mis-educated Drs. have brought us to where we are. We need more voices, such as yours, to help awaken the mis-informed masses.
Question: Can the opposite happen? If we eat zero sugar or sweeteners, do a strict healthy keto diet of whole foods with zero simple carbs or processed foods, and very, very low carb except what's in the keto-friendly fresh vegetables or berries: 1) How long will it take to recover insulin sensitivity? and 2) Can we get insulin deficiency? If so, what would be the result or dangers of that? What is the "sweet" point of sugar/carb intake to keep organs and hormones in balance and normal insulin production? I agree with other comments: God bless you for your clear speech, pace, and detailed explanations.i
I'm somewhat confused about ACV: I thought that vinegar would work the same as ACV, as I also use Red Wine vinegar as well as distilled vinegar at times. This is what I have been taught and I can see why fruit based vinegar is potentially a healthier way to go as opposed to distilled Acetic Acid. Also, what is the actual mechanism on as to how this works as I have been taught so far that vinegar blocks glucose somehow from entering the bloodstream. Thanks for your great vids
You are an excellent teacher .Your explanations and analogie's can be easily understood even by those who have no medical background. Thank you for the excellent explation
IthinkI almost watched allyour videos Dr. Ekberg! Love watching it and even watchd some over and overr again..I am diabetic but already reversed it, have high cholesterol and i dont take my statin med, ihave gerd but way too good now thanks for everyhing you shared! God bless!
That was a great explanation about insulin resistance! I would appreciate it if you would go a bit further about the use of cinamon . For instance, if someone is not taking Metformin but uses cinamon and/or ACV, what is an appropriate amount and what is overboard? I have been doing intermittent fasting, but for the last few years have added cinamon to my morning coffee (2 16 oz. mugs of decaf). Does that cancel out some of my non-eating time?
I personally like to make a vinegar and oil dressing for my salad and other uses made from apple vinegar and virgin olive oil. I do like to add cumin and garlic soolantra fresh ground black pepper pinch of salt and other herbs to taste. I find having a salad put this dressing on it helps to regulate my blood sugar after meal. Lowering the level and slowing down the rate. So this vinegar seems to work for me
I understood it slows the insulin by slowing the food digestion , calling for lower insulin production over a bit longer. Proteins do the same , as we practise in care facilities for over 40 years ...
Moon MH Thank you very much .I didnt know i have to drink 3 times a day .Most of the people they drink in the morning.I was worry to don’t get to much acid in my stomach.
I am Insulin Resistant due to Agent Orange exposure in Vietnam, do I have a chance of reversing it? I’ve been doing KETO for couple months,testing my blood sugar, showing 88 this AM, fasting 12 hr periods, maybe it’s too early. Your videos are great and encouraging! Your advise is very much appreciated.
Thank You Frank Stamey. While there are many general things that a person can do to improve their health, such as reducing sugar, grain and processed foods. Some conditions are a little more complicated and require very specific analysis of the body. In my office we use Nutrition Response Testing to find and handle the root cause of the problem. Angent orange may require some very specific detox.

@@drekberg your videos are fantastic I am learning so much and I encourage people to look at them but sometimes they distrust the internet so I say start at the library. I appreciate your work.
Thank You A B
@@drekberg Thank You for this. They say in Atlanta dialysis shops are popping all over. Some intersections have more than two. Whats going on?
I wish people wouldn't be so judgemental. We don't know their/anybody's stories. Just like we don't know what goes on behind closed doors. I already have anxiety issues at times. I hope everyone's not judging me! I'm not obese but I park in a handicapped parking lot because I'm a wheelchair user. I'm a paraplegic T-4/5 complete due to a car crash decades ago.
Love the analogy of the Salesman - At last I fully understand! Thank you 👊👊👊
I am always impressed with how well Dr. Ekberg communicates the information. Great teacher!
I have fibromyalgia, pcos, lymes, ibs, chronic fatigue.
I started taking some vitamins my midwife told me to take postpartum and noticed I started feeling better. So then I incorporated IF and felt a little more better, though I wasn't eating great. My next step was to eat better, but I wanted to make sure the food I'd be eating was a sustainable switch for my husband as well. Then my mom sent me one of your videos, and I've been watching all of them. Thank you so much for putting this information out. I'm the kind of person that can't really do something without a good explanation, so this has been so helpful for me. Once I'm not in so much pain I'll be starting exercise. I really feel like I'm on the road to recovery, finally.
I enjoyed that explanation of insulin resistance, thank you
Agreed
That was so great!! I’m forever going to picture insulin as that stick figure dude with the sinister grin ☺️ and the disguise 🥸 knocking at my cell doors... 🚪😁🤣🤣🤣🤗
Best explanation of Insulin Resistance and what Insulin’s job is that I’ve ever heard. You made it si easy to understand and remember. My little pea brain thanks you!
Your videos are always appreciated!
As a retired educator, I think you are an excellent teacher. I finally understand how IR works... Thank you!
Absolutely agree.

Thanks, educative video. I do use 2tbs of ACV at least three times a day at morning, before I eat a main meal and before I go to sleep at night. My endocrinologist said my HgbA1C is doing great he indicated I should keep doing what I am doing. This change is all due to you ,Dr. Berg and Dr. Fung that educate us. But, of all the medical experts online your videos are in layman’s terminology that is easily accessible to all. You saving a lot of people lives. Good job.
Hi, I read that you're not supposed to take more than 2 tbl spoons a day.I would recommend a straw when drinking ACV because of your teeth.
After having consumed copious amounts of similar content, I actually learned a lot. Thank you for bridging the gap from novice to the Technical, where we should all be moving towards.

@@drekberg Dr. Sten, you DEFINITELY explain things better than other channels! For sure, for sure. 🙂
Chanced upon one clip on this about 3+ months ago. Decided to try it about 6 weeks ago. Followed the regime strictly. Today is the 4th I got off acv. All my 3 daily readings the last 3 days are back to normal. Amazing.
This video was so fascinating! I wonder why doctors throw around the term 'insulin resistant' but never explains why the body becomes insulin resistant? Well, now I know. Thank you so much for posting!
Because they don't even know themselves...I find most doctors to be ignorant about anything that does not have to do with prescribing pills and antibiotics.
this dude is awesome!! i'm in my 30s and started having problems that i couldn't explain. Listening to him now makes sense of everything. thank you dude!!
This sheds a lot of light on the process of becoming diabetic.

Such a benefit to listen to someone who actually knows what they are talking about, I have been learning so much and appreciate all the information available through these videos. Thank you so much
I enjoyed this video. Very informative. I'm going to make an effort to eat from 11-7 every day and take ACV.
Thank you Tracy Ballard. I really appreciate your feedback and so glad that you liked it.
I do 12-8 with ACV morning and night. Make sure you brush your teeth after the ACV! Good luck!

If it wasn't for ACV I wouldn't have had my one and only child at 44. It was an essential part of my child's fathers healing and reversing his pre-diabetes. We both stopped in the same aisle of the supermarket to look for it. The rest as they say was history lol. Thank you for the wonderful explanation. After healing adrenal and thyroid issues, I have some metabolic damage to work on, being too exhausted to eat and bouncing from feast to famine continuously I am almost positive has lowered my BMR to well below what I can estimate online. I also have some cellular detoxing to do, I am sure. I'm seven weeks into a Ketogenic diet as well as other protocols such as infrared sauna, coffee enemas, and a number of fasting protocols from IF, to ADF to extended fasts. I know I have to be patient but it is so frustrating to work so hard and have it take sooooooo long to see so little obvious improvement. I have to remind myself daily the healing is structural and just because I can't see it doesn't mean it isn't happening. I know I'm doing everything right. ACV is definitely part of my daily routine and I love it. Thanks again, great video.
Lala thank you for sharing your love story. Very nice. Hope your health journey went well. Any updates 2 yrs later?
I can't imagine God making His great creation man and His creation needs coffee enemas
❤️
Can we get an update,please?
Tremendously brilliant analogy. I find Dr. Ekberg's videos very interesting and educative. The thing really is that for me, sugar is just like water. Having to stop using sugar has taken a severe toll on me. Tea, coffee, snacks, ... But for the one reason that this prediabetes can degenerate into kidney problems, I had never imagined myself quitting sugar or even cutting down on the amount I consume daily. I have adopted exercises, & I have reduced the amount of sugar I use by a lot and it's working. I think I'll try ACV to knock the IR once and for all. Well done!
Thank you for the excellent video. I have been T2D for over a decade. I have been on an essentially keto diet (intermittent fasting 16/8) for 18 months and had stalled after losing 30 kg from a start of 130. Since commencing ACV before each of my 2 meals a day my appetite has reduced so much that I have been able to halve my intake and drop a further 8 kg (in about a month). You don't mention it's appetite suppressant action in any of the videos I've seen and I wondered if you or others were aware of it?
I also feel like it is an appetite suppresor tbh:)
When I saw those weight loss results I said "That is definitely a man". Men lose weight so easily. Congrats to you and thank you for sharing.
ACV also takes care of acid reflux.
I put two tea spoons of ACV and two tea spoons of lemon juice in my 16oz Yeti cup fill the rest up with a bottle of Aquafina and this has become my favorite drink! I do this 3 times a day sometimes a fourth time at bedtime 😁
Ketogenic diet 3weeks and going strong with the 18/6 intermittent fasting , I’m down 10 lbs !
Thank You Dr EcBerg for all your knowledge and sharing of it!
The great and mighty God who created us is the God of all knowledge and wisdom that's why our bodies is so smart 😊
We is acv. It does make your tummy girgle at times during digestion. Use only acv on salad w/x-virg olive oil (were diabetic’s).
That was exactly how I needed IR to be explained to me! I'm on day 4 of my official i.f. and I need all the education I can get on food and body.
I love how he explained this analogy of insulin resistance.
Wow.. never have i ever heard such a beautiful explanation of insulin resistance... Thank you Dr.
Plz do video on reducing neuropathy pain. Many Diabetics are MOST motivated when they are in pain.
Dr thank you for the thorough explanation, appreciate it. I would love to see a video on “Keto for beginners” or something to help with the challenges that one might come across at the beginning. I’m 8 days into Keto and have had some not so nice side effects like 1) excessive peeing (especially at night much worse) 2) horrible sleep 3) extreme thirst that I can’t seem to get rid of.... On the flip side I’ve had some great positives like joint pain completely disappeared, but anyway I’d love something for the beginners that maybe goes through the challenges and what to do when the negative things pop up. Thank you for listening 🙏👏🏼
You need electrolytes. Your body's flushing out a lot of inflammation (swelling / liquids) and you're getting dehydrated. Use more salt in your food. You may not be fat-burning adapted yet and you're Hungry (hunger always interferes with my sleep). Don't give up just yet. & make sure you're doing it right, no hidden carbs preventing the adaptation. I like Health Coach Kait. She has nice short videos that give all the Important points on keto. Dr Sten is great, but sometimes it's too much info for us to absorb all at once and we can miss the Main Points. Sometimes when you drink too much liquids, they "dilute" the electrolytes in your system, and you urinate too much and make dehydration worse. So get those electrolytes, and not the drinks that have sugar added. Refined carbs/high blood sugars make us retain a lot of water, you're now doing the opposite getting into ketosis. I think that's the main reason why I lost so much weight so fast on keto. Maybe everyone is like that.
Brilliant descriptions and analogy! I really hope that those who think ACV is going to mitigate their high carb diet will watch this lesson.
Intelligence was built into our cells. I love hearing good nutrition teachings from a Creationist perspective.

@@erinm3567 Actually we don't know & haven't confirmed that. There are people who claim to know, but they're just professing their opinion. If some god does exist, then it used evolution via natural selection to "create" us.

Dear Dr Ekberg,
A Fantastic explanation of a very subjective matter insulin resistance. I have heard many who tried explaining IR but it could not register. What did the job was your illustration of supply and demand, this drove in the point for me. Thanks
Thank you Rooben Doraisamy. I really appreciate your feedback and so glad that you liked it. The purpose of my channel is to explain things better than other channels and help people understand the principles. Comments like yours makes it all worthwhile. also check out my video 6 secrets of reversing insulin resistance😀
Dr ekberg chromium is necessary for the pancreas to produce insulin! It is also necessary for the insulin to get the glucose into the cell! The daily recommended dose does not take into account how much in the system. Needs to be adequate amount in the system! Chromium is the key to insulin getting glucose in the cell! The key to counter resistance!
Dr.Ekberg, thanks for your medical educational process, much appreciated and grateful for your continuous efforts.
Please continue educating and protecting us layman who are victims of the evil mainstream medical practitioners. .
Hello from Israel, thank you very much, you explain very well, I really enjoy hearing you
Thank you so much for that description of insulin resistance!! For the first time, I understand what it really is!
Dr
I recently started following your channel
are the master of explaining many issue
Your style is perfect in understanding
The best teacher ever
Thank you sir
OooooooohMyGoodness my sister told me to take Apple Cider Vinegar and Honey but forgot to mention I needed to add water! My throat was on FIRE...................lol I learned to research things more after that😂😆!
LOL. Yes the water definitely helps.
You can put apple cider vinegar in green tea and honey or any tea you like
LOL! That’s what my sister did too when I told her to also take ACV. 😅😁😁
Oh Tonka, what did your human do?
Although if you feel like sharing natural remedies dear human, that you use with Tonka, me and Keisha the husky are doing a similar home made diet and skin medication for her common husky troubles. We’d be up for some opinions from Tonka.
(Keisha mostly likes the fats and oils part for food and baby oil on her skin.)

This is a very helpful information...easy to understand. Thanks Dr Ekberg
Thank you Laraian V..
Acv is awesome. I put 15ml in 16oz of water. Once with b fast and once with dinner. It's helped me with heartburn and stomach issues tremendously.
Explanation was very clear and easy to understand. Thank you Dr Ekberg! I appreciate your efforts!
This is the best explanation of insulin resistance I've ever heard. Thanks! (speaks in a foreign accent, lol, I won't forget this illustration)
So the doctors give the drug without recommendations about changing the diet!!?
Where I come from, diabetes patients have to restrict eating bread, rice, drinks, juice, fruit!
when my aunt got it she lost a lot of weight!! she was doing Keto without knowing hahaha
how is she now
So much knowledge here. Dr Ekberg deserves at least the attention and subscribers Dr Berg has. In my opinion Dr Ekberg takes it to another level with a crisp and potentially life transforming message for the masses.
I feel Dr. Ekburg is a lot more in-depth and detailed than Dr. Berg, while still keeping his videos relatively short and concise. And he breaks the medical jargon down into layman's terms, often using very helpful analogies!!
It is amazing how versatile these Apple products turn out to be. That‘s why I switched to Apple Cider Vinegar, Apple Watch and iPhone.
what an awesome way to explain complicated systems in simple terms - IOW painting a picture that makes the body processes sound simple
Love how you use the analogy to break it down for all of us thank you. Helps all understand her w the body works! I don’t have weight or insulin issues …. I started OmAd or 2 mad by your teachings
Interesting explanation! Certainly (low carb) food for thought!
My understanding of Metformin is that it inhibits gluconeogenesis but does not affect glucose uptake by the cells... Are there new studies that show it boosts uptake as you say?
Thank you Sylvie Dionne. From what I read I believe it does both, but is unusual in that it limits gluconeogenesis.
This does make sense! Thank you. In nursing school we had 3 squares plus snacks taught in med surg, maternal infant, mental health...yes.
Great explanation for the layperson! Thank you!
Thank you Frank Daman.
I'm cutting out sugar, bread pasta, rice and going on a mix of high fat, low carb paleo and intermittent fasting. I will reintroduce carbs slowly and in lower quantity. I wish I knew this years ago.
I really enjoy your explanations in all of your videos that makes so much sense to the lay person! Just the other day my cardiologist said that insulin resistance doesn't stop a person from losing weight and that it is all about calories and movement in a sharp tone. I have just recently start ACV and will see how that works with my pretty strict keto plan. My primary PA mentioned Berberine a few months back because my A1C is still at 5.6-7 and doesnt seem to budge. I have not been diagnosed by anyone that I am diabetic but in research agree that I am definitely pre-diabetic/insulin resistant. I am only 55 and its been extremely hard to lose any weight for years. What do you say about Berberine in helping insulin resistance?
The salesman analogy has helped me to finally understand insulin resistance, 👍thank you
Excellent analogy. Thank you Dr Sten Ekberg. I finally GET it. If your aim is to explain better than others you certainly succeed. Your way of explaining is succinct and simple but sucessful. Very much appreciated from Australia.
I like the analogy.
Thank you. 6 weeks into no carbs, sugar.
My cataracts seems to be clearing a lot.
Thank you so much for this explanation so clear and understandable!
I am taking ACV regularly from couple of days. It helped my gout problem. Now no medicine,only two spoon of ACV in a large glass of water early moring.
How do you test to see if you are no longer insulin resistant? Or are there signs that tell you that ?
Measure Ketones, when insulin goes down you are less resistant.
When insulin is down ketones goes up.
If you eat only twice a day no snacks low carbs food within 6 hours then fast
16 hours, you will deacrease you insulin resistance.
Follow you ketones level, the higher they go up the less resistant you are
the more weight you lose.
Thanks.
Dr Ekberg, can you talk about what to do when you have many things wrong with you and you want to fix them but you don't know what to fix first? For example, you have hypothyroidism, Hashimoto's autoimmune disease, non-alcoholic liver disease, non-allergic rhinitis, insulin resistance, suspected leptin resistance, elevated cortisol caused by a highly stressful job, high blood pressure e.g., in the 140/90 range, maybe gut issues thrown in there as well. I have not found a video that talks about what to do when a person faces multiple health issues.
Aran, I have similar issues. I'm sure Dr. Ekberg will reply.
Very enlightening video. Thanks for educating us. Yes, low carb is the only way to go. ACV, cinnamon, fenugreek, bitter melon etc., will all help to improve the cell's response to insulin, but not in the presence of high glucose levels.
Mr. Insulin, glucose salesman. I love it.
Excellent description of T2D problem however the cure to help getting out of insulin resistance is fasting. I stopped taking my drugs and fasted for 24 hours and exercised and kept an eye on my blood sugar and have stayed off my drugs by not eating after 6pm and next meal lunch of zero carbs omelette with fried chopped cabbage. Supper meat with raw vegetables. Still no drugs. I understand that boiled potatoes potatoes with ACV can lower their glycemic value haven’t tried it yet. But this fasting 16hrs and only eating lunch and supper no carbs is working.
Thank you, Dr Ekberg, for your lucid explanations. You are a voice in the wilderness which, thank God, is getting louder! Years of misinformation from the Gov’t. and their medically mis-educated Drs. have brought us to where we are. We need more voices, such as yours, to help awaken the mis-informed masses.
Question: Can the opposite happen? If we eat zero sugar or sweeteners, do a strict healthy keto diet of whole foods with zero simple carbs or processed foods, and very, very low carb except what's in the keto-friendly fresh vegetables or berries:
1) How long will it take to recover insulin sensitivity? and
2) Can we get insulin deficiency? If so, what would be the result or dangers of that?
What is the "sweet" point of sugar/carb intake to keep organs and hormones in balance and normal insulin production?
I agree with other comments: God bless you for your clear speech, pace, and detailed explanations.i
Can u imagine some of ur cells not showing up for work 😂
The overall phylosophy is simple and logical don't try to compensate the excess if sugar in the blood but just decrease the quantity of sugar you eat.
I'm somewhat confused about ACV: I thought that vinegar would work the same as ACV, as I also use Red Wine vinegar as well as distilled vinegar at times. This is what I have been taught and I can see why fruit based vinegar is potentially a healthier way to go as opposed to distilled Acetic Acid.
Also, what is the actual mechanism on as to how this works as I have been taught so far that vinegar blocks glucose somehow from entering the bloodstream. Thanks for your great vids
I have the same curiosity. Did you get any clarity on that? Thanks

It was the best insulin story i listened since my childhood😁
I love the way you break things down. You are an excellent Instructor.
Thank you, Thank you,, Thank you for the wonderful information!
That was a great explanation about insulin resistance! I would appreciate it if you would go a bit further about the use of cinamon . For instance, if someone is not taking Metformin but uses cinamon and/or ACV, what is an appropriate amount and what is overboard? I have been doing intermittent fasting, but for the last few years have added cinamon to my morning coffee (2 16 oz. mugs of decaf). Does that cancel out some of my non-eating time?
I use cinnamon a lot. I always put it in my tea and coffee.
@@cutzymccall7675 Just make certain you are using Ceylon Cinnamon.
I personally like to make a vinegar and oil dressing for my salad and other uses made from apple vinegar and virgin olive oil. I do like to add cumin and garlic soolantra fresh ground black pepper pinch of salt and other herbs to taste. I find having a salad put this dressing on it helps to regulate my blood sugar after meal. Lowering the level and slowing down the rate. So this vinegar seems to work for me
Thank you for your simple and detailed explanation.🙏
Is too much ACV bad for bones in the long run?
Drinking it with water, helps me bring down the insulin when I feel tired and sluggish.
Thank you usa gal. I don't see any draw back as long as you limit it to T

Dr. Sten Ekberg
Ok, thanks doc👌
I understood it slows the insulin by slowing the food digestion , calling for lower insulin production over a bit longer. Proteins do the same , as we practise in care facilities for over 40 years ...
I’m drinking in the morning on the empty stomach for 3 months and I don’t see any difference at all,I don’t know why ? Thank you doctor .❤️
