I found Dr. Berg by accident on RUclips one day, which changed my life ever since, thanks to Keto and IF that helped me survive through the hardest time of my life.
Rob Kidney what a nice person. Good job letting the guest speak. 👍 Dr. Berg. Love Robs comment - it’s so great to wake up feeling alive. KETO for Health KETO for Life.
Couple weeks after I made my transition from low carb to keto, I found I can't do 3 meals a day, dinner made me bloated and I can't sleep at night, eventually I eat only breakfast and lunch. I didn't even know that was call intermittent fasting. My body just adapt to the 18/6 eating window naturally and "correct" my eating frequency. It's amazing.
What a wonderful interview! I love the language used. No hard-core bashing even though most people would think it‘s deserved or warranted. It shows that the point can be made using calm, intelligent, speech and manner. Thanks for keeping it classy.
I know too many women that continue the Jillian way and nothing changes with their hormones so...she’s wasted their time and health. You’re lucky if you just don’t have that issue!
This interview definitely satisfied my raging hunger to hear people with integrity having a respectful and uplifting conversation! Thank you, it’s great to find faith in humans again 😉
The Modern Seed I agree! The show certainly helped him mentally from all the stress. I’m glad he was the one being interviewed by Dr. Berg, what a gentleman.
At that time in history, it was as hot as keto and intermittent fasting is today. Five years from now, a new and better way will be discovered over keto and fasting. Man continues to learn, trial and error
Light Post congrats! That’s awesome! I’m at 215 and the goal is to get down to 160 for my sisters wedding and eventually 135 for my height. So this is inspiring to hear that it’s possible! May I ask what your daily routine is? Did you IF or OMAD? Do apple cider vinegar? I’m just curious and love hearing what works for others.
@@XY4RIX i eat only whole food. No sugar. I fast 15 hours a day. I have health issues from chemical exposure in the army so I do coffee enemas daily to detox my liver. I started size 18 skipped size 16 stayed at 14 for months then when i gave up sugar i skipped 12 and now im a 10. I bounce on a ball an hour a day and try to walk as much as possible. Inflmanation is going away along with joint pain. I feel younger and so much lighter.
Dr Berg You are such a kind person It felt like you were talking to me in person You are talking about this difficult subject in such an easy and natural way that I have changed my mind and realised that it should not be difficult at all. It is all in the mind. Rob Kidney also is so sincere and honest about his transformation. I am obese myself and this advise has really an impact on my future decisions regarding eating patterns and also mild exercises. Thanks a million for this video Much appreciated
MIa Du Plessis Just follow dr berg video n success is certain. Just be committed n stay on vegetables n good quality whole food. Cut your sugars and carbo. Do 16 hrs fasting n 2 meals. Sure to succeed. You will not feel hungry n your fats will be the fuel for your body. 🙌 in a few months u may be in xl size n u r in human form again. Good luck
Rob Kidney I am going to send your interview with Dr Berg to my cousin. He started keto with me but has fallen off. He is over 300 pounds and I am concerned for him.
Keto diet is not just about losing weight but living a sustainable healthy life. Thanks Dr Berg for your continual education on this area. God bless you.
We humen did never evolved with hydrogenated oils n pure sugar, nowadays almost everything is poisoned with these substance, people need to realize that n wake up.
I've just lost 6.5lbs on my first week doing keto and intermittent fasting..this is absolutely amazing for me. I have done every diet known to man, I am hypothyroid so struggle terribley trying to lose weight even though my bloods are always 'within range' Oh and I'm in the menopause 🙄. I also have no gallbladder due to gallstones. I have gained nearly 28lbs since the surgery to have it removed! I also have reactive hypoglycaemia which is no good for a sugar addict, who suffers from anxiety and panic attacks. I feel like I've turned a corner and am sooooooo happy 😁 thanks so much Dr Berg you have no idea how much you've helped me with all of your wonderful videos 🙏
Rob Kidney thank you 😊 I most certainly will. When you say healed....is that actually possible when you’re hypo? I was under the impression my thyroid is destroyed and I will need to be on my thyroxine for the rest of my life!
@@sharonbradley7938 my TSH has been off the charts and took synthroid. I believe that was hypo, if I am wrong forgive me. my TSH is normal and no more medicine. healed to me is exactly that. if its the eating, the fasting, or supplementation or a combination of all 3 IDK. you have alot more issues than I had and I pray Keto and Intermittent fasting work for you. i know my hypertension is gone and Im hoping to keep getting healthier as I fast and autophagy kicks into high gear. i believe your health will be much better as you go also. Dr Bergs IF FB page is a great support and Dr Fungs FB groups
I really enjoyed the comments about absorbing information so you can figure out how to work around your own issues, mental and physical. When you are older, and not in great physical shape, fighting your own metabolism can be very frustrating. Doing keto with IF has helped me get on the path, exercising where I can is helping, but key is finding ways to switch things up if you do stall, so you can get yourself moving again. Just don’t give up, sit back into your recliner and turn sedentary again. I’m 57, 6 months in keto, 50 lbs down (halfway to ultimate goal), and healthier than I’ve been in at least a decade. Thank you Dr. Berg!
Good on you Catherine. A mindset of 'it's about living and eating healthy and the rest will follow' is key. Then it's easier to see plateaus as part of the process (same with bodybuilders). If it goes over long as this gentleman said, it's the view of the body is telling you it needs something else (or less of something else), and determining this required one knowing oneself sufficiently to find any points of obstruction.
It's so important to look at our eating issues around stress and past traumas both big and small. Peeling away the carbs exposes these things and if not taken care of, you won't be reaching all your goals effectively or at all. We gotta set ourselves up for success! I remind people I was a nearly 300lb lady that could eat a bowl of icing. I still get pangs to binge, but I think about it, eat something high fat, give one serving and get full, or drink salt water and don't need any food. What I don't do is eat something sweet when I want to binge. I leave whip cream and berries a few days a week, or make something for shark week to avoid binge pangs. The struggle is real. I've dropped 75lbs my first year with no exercise and a physical condition that impairs my mobility greatly, and am 5 lbs away from goal weight. I've been eating intuitively since May and that has helped me learn I can really control my cravings and that was really empowering. I trust my choices but know I'm still an addict and keto is my guide map! :)
I like the caution and respect from both dr berg and the guest.... BL is a bad way to lose weight from every corner and there is no need to insult to uncover a truth!
Yep. I agree. I don't think the plan from the get-go with BL was to have people lose weight in ANY way possible, ...and their Health be Damned!!!Lol.😁 Nope, I feel they went with what they knew, which seems like it was 'low-calorie low-fat high-carb and frequent but very small meals!' Oh, and INTENSE and lonnng never ending Exercise! Of course that caused very frequent insulin spikes and created more insulin resistance, and bringing the contestants metabolism to an all time low and sluggish state. As you can hear this man Rob explain, that he stayed on a caloric restricted diet and was eating pretty clean, but continued to stack on the weight again! His metabolism was all messed up. So happy for him that he found Dr. Bergs videos and started his way back to health by simply learning about keto and intermittent fasting, and applying small changes to his diet at first. Yes, both he and Dr. Berg showed respect and constraint.Good on them!!😉
I love the journey to great health that Rob Kidney is on! I am a Psychotherapist and I am finding that the KETO diet plan is helping tremendously with elevating moods. It also helps my clients engage in treatment. No medication at all. I put it to the test first and followed up with research and the result is phenomenal!!!
Hi! Im a long term trauma survivor. Keto has helped me sooo much. I do all the veggies dr b recommends then mod fat and mod protein. 2 meals a day between 1 and 7. Best to you and your patients!
Depression is evil. I've dealt with it for over 25 years and I'm so done. I started doing keto because of my weight but have found that when I eat keto I don't have depressive tendencies as much as when I eat grains and sugar. The difference isn't just a little bit, it is noticeable. I'm so grateful I found this! Thank you for helping you're patients live a better quality life
I do 23hrs dry fast daily. My skin is soft and glowing And I get a good night's sleep and go to the gym in fasted state of about 20hrs. No more craving or hunger anymore. Blessings from Wolverhampton England to you all.
@Janice Bradley There are TWO types of fasting. Dry fasting is fast with no contact with water no brushing teeth or shower etc Soft dry is no drinking water but you can have a shower and brush teeth etc.
@@hibasabbar1953 Its not for everyone especially if you have a medical condition or very hot country. I started by pushing my breakfast from 7am to 9am then 12pm and found no hunger anymore craving anymore. My skin is soft and glowing And I get a good night's sleep and go to the gym in fasted state of about 20hrs. I have never felt better.
It is nice to hear two gentlemen discuss what works for them in terms of healthy diet, exercise, and lifestyle. Neither said anything inflammatory that would be regretted after the interview is broadcast. This is a good example of how to make healthy changes in your lifestyle. Most people are so rushed just making a living that good nutrition gets overlooked. The food pyramid established so long ago is crumbling from it's own weight. The foundation of grains is being crushed by glyphosate and insulin resistance. Who will be industrious enough to rebuild the food pyramid to guide future generations to better health than what we have experienced in the preceding 5 decades?
Great interview. I appreciate the respect Rob Kidney showed for his experience on the BL...and his desire for new knowledge and understanding and willingness to apply good information on how to keep healthy and fit at any age. I'd say He IsThe Biggest Winner!
People’s reactions to a change in their preconceived notions are predictable. The idea of a high fat diet doesn’t align with their schemas. This is why a person like Jillian Michaels is fighting this battle. “First people ignore you. Then they laugh at you. Then they fight you.”
The reason she is fighting against keto, is you don't have to buy anything but food to do the ketogenic diet. There are no powders, pills, or magic potions needed. Meters and test strips are completely optional too. Just eat low carb, and you will enter ketosis. If you want to accurately keep track of your food intake, use a free nutritional app, and buy a digital kitchen scale.
I think it's about 90% of The Biggest Losers put weight back on. Now I'm learning that the 10% of those who keep it off, are not doing it the Jillian Michaels way, but at least one is using keto. WOW!
however you lose it, you have to maintain it. if you lose it in the gym you better not quit working out. if people approach Keto as a temporary diet ........ also weight gain. GET HEALTHY LOSE WEIGHT.
You're right about diets. But just because Jillian calls it a fad doesn't mean it is. It's a fad when it dies out because it doesn't work the way it should. Keto does work. So it doesn't qualify as a fad. I'm living proof.
@Lonao Not true at all. Insulin resistance plays a big role in one's ability to lose weight. There is much more to it than simple calories in vs calories out. I Ongoing calorie restriction eventually takes a toll on your metabolism and it gets to the point that a reduced calorie meal has no effect. That is what happened to me until I found Keto and IF to heal my metabolism. It used to be very easy for me to lose weight but now only Keto and IF works for me.
Thank you for mentioning how insulin resistance can make blood glucose rise even after a low carb meal. My husband has been having this issue and getting very discouraged. We’ve realized how severe his IR is and that it will take time to reverse.
never quit. we didn't get this way in a year and it takes time and lifestyle change. conquer the sugar cravings, then conquer all the artificial sweeteners (sugar free mints, gum, candy, drinks) no snacks, others may, but us IR folks may not.
She wasn't even the trainer on his season. This was after she left a second time because she kept fighting with producers about their methods. I'm surprised people don't know this. The only reason she came back after she quit the first time was probably one money and two the producers said they'd stop doing what they did, but it proved a lie.
The calcium needs vitamin D3 and K2 for the complete process. Vitamin D helps absorb, but K2 is what takes it out of the soft tissue and into the bones. Without K2 it is a recipe for heart disease due to calcification of the soft tissues, and more specifically the arteries! DR. Berg as well as many others deal with this in other videos. 👍
i lost 12 kg doiin intermittent fasting and before i used to lose 3-4 kg by eating clean and cardio bt it always used to come back ..my metabolism was slow ...now i m tracking my calories and consumung 2500 calories and on bulking with weight trainng ..fasting increase metabbolism like crazy thnx dr berg
Ten minutes in, & my legs ache imagining working out that hard. That faster weight loss & constant workouts is impossible to maintain in real life long term. No wonder 95% regained. 💖🙂🐶
@@maxibake9323 Right, this was a show so that is all they did-same with many in Hollywood, modeling, entertainment figures etc. where it's all they do for a living (which is no life in my estimation)-except the 'successful' ones have personal trainers and chef's, etc. that do all of this in-home. Unrealistic for virtually anyone else.
when fasting insulin goes down. when insulin is down you start loosing weight. it helps also to regulate insulin in general especially for diabetics and pre-diabetics who have insulin super high. insulin is an hormone rsponsible for the use of nutriments in our body and store fat as for survival purposes. in our societies , it is always high in our body. in fact no mamals is supposed to eat 6 meals a day. when a dog is sick because of food, they ask you to feed him once a day ....I was diabetic tye II, lost 40 ponds . and I am on medication as a kidney transplanted. I go to the gym in a fasted state and still gained muscle . Fasting boost testosterone and other beneficial hormones...
This interview is very helpful. Now more I understand about how our bodies function on keto. I got clarity on how important the correct type of fat intake is...that's what I didn't get before. I will definitely give keto a try!
David. You do not hv to work out to lose weight in fact, it can deter fat burning. You can stimulate fat burning w Dr Bergs tips from his books. I lost 29 pounds in42 days barely wrking out. I mean BARELY.
@@jen7025 I agree. I always say wait a good 3 months or so until you incorporate exercise into a keto weight loss plan that way you get rid of the water weight first then your body can focus on burning fat with fasted exercise.
Thank you for this video! This video is a better response to Jillian Michaels' slam against keto than any other. An actual case study of how unsustainable the Biggest Loser lifestyle is in the real world and how great keto and IF are at effortlessly losing weight and keeping it off. Thank you Rob for your excellent testimonial. You are a great speaker and I appreciated your respect for The Biggest Loser for helping to change your life. I lost 120 pounds about 9 years ago on a low fat calorie restricted diet and then proceeded to gain it all back and then some through two pregnancies. Now I have found keto and IF and I'm excited to transform my life healthily and sustainably. Thanks Dr. Berg!
Yeah, it was all about weight loss as a game show without regard for long-term health. Essentially, if you didn't die on the show, their approach worked and after that you're on your own. Game shows man, gotta love 'em. No regard for a nutrition-based lifestyle, just dump weight and make money.
Guarantee if you were to get the statistics on the hundred plus people that have gone through the biggest loser, 75% of them have gained their weight back. And maybe even more. That would bust open the whole show
Yep, I don't know if they changed things on the show after Jill left, but I remember former contestants saying that they were given caffeine pills (which are basically what diet pills are) & they were forced to fast from water close to their weigh-ins in order to be lighter. They were also on very strict low calorie diets, & just as this man admitted worked out for several hours a day. I don't know if this man is being entirely truthful, or if the show started changing things once former contestants started ratting them out, but this show looks at health in a very commercialized way. & I feel so bad that the former contestants were never taught how to have a healthy lifestyle, but are instead taught to go from one extreme to the next, which is crash dieting. I guess it was just a game show after all.
Very nice job Dr Berg. Good to hear this gentleman talk about his journey. I’m really happy this chat stayed positive. You are doing this right. Thanks again. 👍
I am so happy that I found this video. I am a big Dr. Berg fan and watched many of his videos. Hearing from a person who has gone through the battle with all the ups and downs is just what I need right now. I have been intermittent fasting for about a month with no change in diet just to get the hang of it. Now I am ready to start keto but the clean version, meaning more chicken and fish over pork and beef. Great video Dr. Berg,
You should make your long format videos as a podcast. I am a software developer and I sit in front of a screen all day. Afterwards, I have no desire to watch any video over about 5 minutes long, yet I love your content. I will listen to content as I do yard/house work though.
You can't have a job and family and maintain that lifestyle. Even an hour a day is hard for some people's schedules. No wonder they all gain the weight back after their metabolism is destroyed. Having several small meals a day puts their body into starvation mode, which slows down their metabolism.
Is it just me or do people on low carb/high fat diets seem calm and composed in their manner of speaking, as opposed to loud, agitated and defensive. I've observed this on a few already and wondered if there's a connection there. 🤔😊
Dr. Berg, you’re looking healthier in this video! I am struggling right now but I have a lot of stress. I’m not stress eating but I think my hormones are screwed up. I am 2 weeks away from having a new hip. I am in Ecuador, speak very little Spanish and my husband has to go back to our home country in a week for 3 weeks so I’ll be alone. I’ve lost 90 pounds and have 22 more to go. My strategy is to eat healthy, keep up with exercises. I figure when I’m back on the road to recovery from the hip replacement surgery and getting more active, the weight will start coming off again. I go from OMAD to intermittent fasting , depending on my days. Thanks for all the useful info!
Stress is really bad. Try to do some relaxing things like walks in a green area (leave your phone at home) or swimming. Don't watch TV. Try to learn how to meditate and be at peace. It takes hard work but with practice you can do it.
I had bi laterial hip replacements 3 yrs ago and there was no stress or anxiety for me, in fact I looked forward to getting my mobility back and to my surprise I was up walking the next day and taking stairs as well, you have a lot to look forward to, no stress needed here. I could take care of myself right away. I was 52 yrs old then, put yourself in the mindset of a better life look beyond what you have to go through, trust me you won’t recall any of the surgery.
Jillian Michaels is a tool for industry. she's fantastic for industry. Why put her up on a pedestal or give her a break? Sorry...she is WRECKING people's lives!
Been on keto just over 3 weeks and already have hit several "plateaus". Doesn't matter. Just keep going and eventually it moves. Thank you SO MUCH for your help!
36:35....its absolutely NOT OK for her to go spouting off at the mouth about something she obviously knows NOTHING about!. Some people take her word as "health gospel," its comparable to malicious malpractice in a doctor. She should stick with yelling at people and selling supplements, apps and cardio machines. EDIT.....earlier I used the word "supplements," what she is peddling are the ever-popular "fat burners!" The word supplement might be a bit of a stretch.
What a great bright guy . Well done Rob and hats off to you Dr Berg. The greatest thing we can do is To Help Somebody! You've helped thousands and I'm really inspired by you. What a great purpose. Siobhan Dublin. Ireland
Dr Berg, I love that you take the time to listen and i am so glad i found you on You Tube! It has only been a little over a week and i have lost 3lbs. But i am learning so much more about the Keto eating, i know this is for me . Maybe i will get my hubby on the Keto living. :) A BIG Thank You!! God Bless you and your family...
rob is a Nice guy . What I love about IF and Keto is that the hunger is minimal and the results are so good. The understanding looks so thorough. well done
Rob, way to go stepping into your 60’s getting healthier each year! Dr. Berg, thanks for giving us the education that allow people to make appropriate choices leading to better health!
"I am eating to be healthy and the weight loss will follow". Way to go Rob, a great way to sum up what Keto, IF and clean nutrition should be all about. Huge Dr Berg fan, while I understand he often puts focus on weight loss as this appeals to a lot of people, I feel tremendous support from his huge video library directed at health solutions. I have adopted his anti-aging goal as one of my own life goals: "Every year I am a year younger".
Amazing interview this is really getting my day started right! I love interviews like this from z-list celebrities on health and fitness. You are great interviewer too!
In late August of 2018 I had a health scare that turned out to be nothing, but I used it as a wake up call to get myself healthy. From that moment I started following Dr Berg's advice, I started to feel a lot better. I started with Dr. Berg's youtube videos to get educated and transformed my health for the better. I haven't reached all my goal yet, but I'm well on my way - thank you Dr Berg. When I started my new lifestyle, I went from two meals a day, but quickly graduated to having one huge salad every day, full of Cruciferous Vegetables and healthy fats. I must admit, I eat more protein than Dr. Berg recommends, but so far so good. The reason I'm commenting on this video is to first let everyone know that I like Dr Berg's advice and use his information as a part of my health education foundation, but I still have to challenge my mentors to improve my understanding of things. This is my question. Dr Burg says, "the presence of even a small amount of insulin blocks the body's ability to burn fat". If that's true, how are these people on The Biggest Loser, losing so much weight when they are constantly eating small meals throughout the day? Is there a point, that in the presence of insulin the body is still capable of burning fat? Don't get me wrong, I understand that going to the gym 6 hours a day isn't sustainable (unless you're a physical trainer), but doesn't the fat loss on the Biggest Loser, fly in the face of Dr Berg's theory of insulin blocking the body's ability to burn fat? Again, I feel great following a lot of what Dr Berg has said in his youtube videos and I will be forever grateful for his efforts, but I would like to understand and improve my health even further. Thank you for any responses to this question.
I really don't like the repeated assertion that the only "healthy" version of keto is one that has a focus on lots of vegetables, fiber, and supplements and that a keto eating plan that focuses primarily on fatty meats and low to no fiber is somehow "less than" or not as healthy as when a lot of vegetables are being consumed. In my own personal experience after having been eating keto since 2012 with an emphasis on fatty meats like ribeye steak, other beef, cheese, and a heck of a lot of bacon and hardly any vegetables, I have repeated blood and urine test results that are perfect again and again, normal blood pressure, absolutely no sign of diabetes, and a resting heart rate in the 50s. I have never been more healthy, and you won't be able to convince me that the only way that I could somehow be healthier is to add all of the vegetables to my diet. They are simply not necessary for me to be healthy. The same goes for taking any kind of supplements. I do not take any supplements. Every single nutrient I need is in the meat that I am consuming. I keep hearing people talk about "good fats", and to me, the only fat that isn't good is artificial trans fats. Any fat that is produced by nature, like the fat in meats, is what we need to be eating. I do not track everything I eat, I don't worry about calories, and I am thriving. I feel like people try to somehow make keto appear healthy by saying that all these vegetables have to be eaten in order for it to be considered healthy and to appeal to a society who has been told over and over for the past 50 years that vegetables are healthy, so if our diet has lots of vegetables in it then we can convince people to do it and think that it's more healthy than if you choose to primarily focus on fatty cuts of meat. If my approach was somehow unhealthy, I feel that after doing it for the past 6.5 years that I would have started to show some signs that my body isn't healthy, but that simply isn't the case. I had a coronary artery calcium test done recently just to check to see if I had some risk, and my result was a perfect 0. I don't doubt that a keto diet that has a lot of low carb vegetables as a part of it can't be healthy, but I really hope that Dr. Berg will stop saying that eating lots of vegetables is the "healthier" version of keto. I don't think that it is. Stop being afraid of saturated fat. That is old dogma that just won't seem to go away, even with some in the keto community. Saturated fat is healthy, period, and I am living, breathing proof. Just for reference, I'm a male in my 50s. I started in 2012 at 415 pounds and lost my first 100 pounds in my first 9 months of doing keto, and have slowly transitioned to intermittent fasting and lately I have started water fasting for between 24 and 72 hours to tap into the benefits of autophagy. I've never felt better. Since that first 9 months I've taken off an additional 75 pounds and am still very slowly coming down. I have kept the weight off and plan to never go back to the evils of eating processed grains and sugar and "food" that comes in boxes. Never, ever again.
Congrats, there is a lot of us right there with you Dennis, I like Dr Berg but I do pray that he sees the light eventually. Been Keto a year, last couple of months some Carnivore, they still speak about the fat like it's something to fear or be careful of! I am down 60 pounds, high liver enzymes and high blood pressure back to normal, back, leg and knee pain and swelling all better! I feel great, just turned 62. I walk , work out a little and I live upstairs so I walk 15 steps kind of steep steps up and down 8 to 10 times a day. My energy level better than in years! Anyways, thanks for sharing and all the best to you all! I eat fat back, bacon, steaks, and more, not a ton of it but I don't all that stuff they speak of and my blood work is good! True Keto for Life!
This was great! I really appreciate Rob - and thank you Dr. Berg --- thank you SO much --- I think this was one of the BEST VIDEOS I've seen -- great help for us all to see you two speak about Keto with joy, class, scientific knowledge and real advice for us all.
I want to complement Dr Berg and his guest Rob Kidney for sharing his struggles and accomplishments, on the road to better health and proper weight management. Rob, Best Wishes and Good Health!
Sandra Bentley The biggest loser, was like going to the emergency room having them just put a Band-Aid on the problem, even though they needed a bigger bandage.
I eat between 50-60g of fat a day, one of my friends told me that 70% was way too much. She said her doctor said she shouldn’t do it because she has no gallbladder and it was too high fat. I entered her days worth of food and it was 200g carbs, 115g fat, 142g protein and 2500 calories! I think a lot of the public and a lot of doctors are ill informed on actually what Keto diet is. I can’t wait until everyone catches on and realises what is actually healthy for us. Keep up the good work Rob
I also want to thank Dr. Berg for allowing the guest to speak. What a rarity. Rob, you are such an upbeat person. I'm so glad that you found the KETO way of eating (WOE). It's too bad that so many people who don't understand what it is feel that they must tell us that we're going to die. ;-) As for Jillian. I respect her for what she has done. I hope that she'll look into what KETO really is and how much it's helped people. An open mind is a good thing...as long as the brains don't fall out.
Wonderful interview! Thank you both very much. I listened to the whole thing while I cleaned my shop (thank you, Dr. J Peterson) (who, by the way, you should also interview). PS. Please do show examples of good meals. I remember being confused about that when I started keto over a year ago. Thank you Dr. Berg.
This interview is very interesting. But, why do we have to put so much thought and planning into what we're eating? Fats, carbs, protein, etc...fasting....can't I just eat clean and get on with my life without all of this planning of foods?
Love that you kept the respect level high and hit Jillian with the real science and Paleo model. I have been watching you for about two years now and appreciate your honest approach and desire to see people reach attainable more healthy results. Unfortunately, her financial interests block her from doing the real research. Have a feeling as she gets older, she may see the light.
Eating the keto way has helped me. I'm feeling better. I haven't dropped a lot of weight but I have dropped inches. My belly has gone down and feels squishy not flabby. I don't have this big hard drum of a belly anymore. I can tie my shoes without struggling. Grant you I have a ways to go but I'm not looking so much at the scales as I am the way my clothes fit. I don't feel stuff in my clothes anymore. I can move more freely. I believe that I've lost the inner fat around my organs which really makes a difference in mobility. I'm not starving at all. Food is not a constant thought in my mind anymore. I feel satisfied. My thoughts are centered around living,family and projects that I want to do. Once you start eating the keto way you just feel better. You don't feel hungry all the time at all. You have more energy. Your more relaxed in life itself. Your not haunted by the thought of food all the time. It's a great feeling. It breaks the hold that food has had on you. Keto is a life changer in so many way.
I did intermittent fasting for about 8 months when I was stuck in my postpartum weight loss. It continued to be a challenge as my grelin is strong and stubborn but I loved it. Then I got pregnant (which is awesome and miraculous as I have PCOS so we didn’t expect it without clomid 🙌🏻.) Now I have morning sickness and throw up when my stomach is empty and carbs feel the best on my stomach. 😕 This does convict me to at least focus on getting more veggies. Can’t wait for this first trimester to end!
Incredible informational video. And it was done without bashing any other diets. Well done Dr. Berg. I hate diet bashing! Just because something works for you doesn't mean that it will work for others. "Eat to be healthy and the weight loss will follow" Amen!
Excellent interview... I have learned much more than just eating healthy... I know the human anatomy so well, I now understand the function of every organ.
This is so great to see. All these people who went on biggest looser and lost 100 plus pounds each, but almost all added the pounds back and then some. These folks are not losers, they were dedicated and each became quasi fitness experts, to have this happen is a big sign that what we are told about diet and exercise is lies. So glad this gentleman switched to Keto, and is finding long term success.
Thank you dr Berg! Great video! Rob Kidney I have a big respect for people like you, who take such a good care of their health and are hungry for more knowledge of how to maintain better results in your life. You definitely are a good example for people around you! 👍
I found Dr. Berg by accident on RUclips one day, which changed my life ever since, thanks to Keto and IF that helped me survive through the hardest time of my life.
Rob Kidney what a nice person. Good job letting the guest speak. 👍 Dr. Berg. Love Robs comment - it’s so great to wake up feeling alive. KETO for Health KETO for Life.
jimnftlaud 😀 I thought your very words. 😆😆 but edited. 👍
Couple weeks after I made my transition from low carb to keto, I found I can't do 3 meals a day, dinner made me bloated and I can't sleep at night, eventually I eat only breakfast and lunch. I didn't even know that was call intermittent fasting. My body just adapt to the 18/6 eating window naturally and "correct" my eating frequency. It's amazing.
What a wonderful interview! I love the language used. No hard-core bashing even though most people would think it‘s deserved or warranted. It shows that the point can be made using calm, intelligent, speech and manner. Thanks for keeping it classy.
Very respectful interview. No need to bash anything nor anybody to send a clear message
I know too many women that continue the Jillian way and nothing changes with their hormones so...she’s wasted their time and health. You’re lucky if you just don’t have that issue!
This interview definitely satisfied my raging hunger to hear people with integrity having a respectful and uplifting conversation! Thank you, it’s great to find faith in humans again 😉
Yep
“raging hunger to hear people with integrity having a respectful and uplifting conversation”
I like that.
*Oooo this is gonna be good!!!* Jillian Michaels I loved her so much, she really disappointed me with her interviews lately. Dr. Berg for the win!
Agreed.
Me too
End of the day she is a business woman. She isn’t ready for the change and accept the change.
Team Berg!
Agreed with you from Egypt 😊
I like this man!!! Specially how he managed to state his point without bashing a program he found beneficial at some point.
The Modern Seed I agree! The show certainly helped him mentally from all the stress. I’m glad he was the one being interviewed by Dr. Berg, what a gentleman.
always looking for good. dealing with the post BL metabolism has not been fun but they helped me so much.
At least he found out he was capable of self motivation to keep at it
At that time in history, it was as hot as keto and intermittent fasting is today. Five years from now, a new and better way will be discovered over keto and fasting. Man continues to learn, trial and error
MegaLifeChanging probably give it a 10, keto is awesome but there will probably be an innovation in our diet and hopefully more sustainable.
Woohoo. Im down 60 lbs+ thanks to Dr Berg. 220 to 160. 140 is my goal.
Light Post congrats! That’s awesome! I’m at 215 and the goal is to get down to 160 for my sisters wedding and eventually 135 for my height. So this is inspiring to hear that it’s possible! May I ask what your daily routine is? Did you IF or OMAD? Do apple cider vinegar? I’m just curious and love hearing what works for others.
@@XY4RIX i eat only whole food. No sugar. I fast 15 hours a day. I have health issues from chemical exposure in the army so I do coffee enemas daily to detox my liver. I started size 18 skipped size 16 stayed at 14 for months then when i gave up sugar i skipped 12 and now im a 10. I bounce on a ball an hour a day and try to walk as much as possible. Inflmanation is going away along with joint pain. I feel younger and so much lighter.
congrats, me too, I am down 140 pounds from 304 to 164 but hey apparently keto doesnt work. is a "bad plan" according to jillian.
Fantastic
@@lightpost5426 fantastic results
Dr Berg
You are such a kind person
It felt like you were talking to me in person
You are talking about this difficult subject in such an easy and natural way that I have changed my mind and realised that it should not be difficult at all.
It is all in the mind.
Rob Kidney also is so sincere and honest about his transformation.
I am obese myself and this advise has really an impact on my future decisions regarding eating patterns and also mild exercises.
Thanks a million for this video
Much appreciated
you are in the right place Mia.
MIa Du Plessis Just follow dr berg video n success is certain. Just be committed n stay on vegetables n good quality whole food. Cut your sugars and carbo. Do 16 hrs fasting n 2 meals. Sure to succeed. You will not feel hungry n your fats will be the fuel for your body. 🙌 in a few months u may be in xl size n u r in human form again. Good luck
Respect to this gentleman.....for his patience and his perseverance. Keep at it my friend!
blessings to you as well.
@@mrbackyardrob Thank you my friend.
Rob Kidney I am going to send your interview with Dr Berg to my cousin. He started keto with me but has fallen off. He is over 300 pounds and I am concerned for him.
Keto diet is not just about losing weight but living a sustainable healthy life. Thanks Dr Berg for your continual education on this area. God bless you.
We humen did never evolved with hydrogenated oils n pure sugar, nowadays almost everything is poisoned with these substance, people need to realize that n wake up.
I've just lost 6.5lbs on my first week doing keto and intermittent fasting..this is absolutely amazing for me. I have done every diet known to man, I am hypothyroid so struggle terribley trying to lose weight even though my bloods are always 'within range' Oh and I'm in the menopause 🙄. I also have no gallbladder due to gallstones. I have gained nearly 28lbs since the surgery to have it removed! I also have reactive hypoglycaemia which is no good for a sugar addict, who suffers from anxiety and panic attacks. I feel like I've turned a corner and am sooooooo happy 😁 thanks so much Dr Berg you have no idea how much you've helped me with all of your wonderful videos 🙏
Dr. Berg wont steer you wrong. Might I also suggest Dr. Ken Berry, he has changed my life also. Also Thomas Delauer. Good luck on your journey 👍🏻
Paul H thank you 😊
Bless you. Keep learning Keto. my Thyroid was wacked out and recently healed from IF and Keto.
Rob Kidney thank you 😊 I most certainly will. When you say healed....is that actually possible when you’re hypo? I was under the impression my thyroid is destroyed and I will need to be on my thyroxine for the rest of my life!
@@sharonbradley7938 my TSH has been off the charts and took synthroid. I believe that was hypo, if I am wrong forgive me. my TSH is normal and no more medicine. healed to me is exactly that. if its the eating, the fasting, or supplementation or a combination of all 3 IDK. you have alot more issues than I had and I pray Keto and Intermittent fasting work for you. i know my hypertension is gone and Im hoping to keep getting healthier as I fast and autophagy kicks into high gear. i believe your health will be much better as you go also. Dr Bergs IF FB page is a great support and Dr Fungs FB groups
I really enjoyed the comments about absorbing information so you can figure out how to work around your own issues, mental and physical. When you are older, and not in great physical shape, fighting your own metabolism can be very frustrating. Doing keto with IF has helped me get on the path, exercising where I can is helping, but key is finding ways to switch things up if you do stall, so you can get yourself moving again. Just don’t give up, sit back into your recliner and turn sedentary again. I’m 57, 6 months in keto, 50 lbs down (halfway to ultimate goal), and healthier than I’ve been in at least a decade. Thank you Dr. Berg!
Good on you Catherine. A mindset of 'it's about living and eating healthy and the rest will follow' is key. Then it's easier to see plateaus as part of the process (same with bodybuilders).
If it goes over long as this gentleman said, it's the view of the body is telling you it needs something else (or less of something else), and determining this required one knowing oneself sufficiently to find any points of obstruction.
the story of my life. you got it.
It's so important to look at our eating issues around stress and past traumas both big and small. Peeling away the carbs exposes these things and if not taken care of, you won't be reaching all your goals effectively or at all. We gotta set ourselves up for success! I remind people I was a nearly 300lb lady that could eat a bowl of icing. I still get pangs to binge, but I think about it, eat something high fat, give one serving and get full, or drink salt water and don't need any food. What I don't do is eat something sweet when I want to binge. I leave whip cream and berries a few days a week, or make something for shark week to avoid binge pangs. The struggle is real. I've dropped 75lbs my first year with no exercise and a physical condition that impairs my mobility greatly, and am 5 lbs away from goal weight. I've been eating intuitively since May and that has helped me learn I can really control my cravings and that was really empowering. I trust my choices but know I'm still an addict and keto is my guide map! :)
I like the caution and respect from both dr berg and the guest.... BL is a bad way to lose weight from every corner and there is no need to insult to uncover a truth!
Yep. I agree. I don't think the plan from the get-go with BL was to have people lose weight in ANY way possible, ...and their Health be Damned!!!Lol.😁 Nope, I feel they went with what they knew, which seems like it was 'low-calorie low-fat high-carb and frequent but very small meals!' Oh, and INTENSE and lonnng never ending Exercise!
Of course that caused very frequent insulin spikes and created more insulin resistance, and bringing the contestants metabolism to an all time low and sluggish state. As you can hear this man Rob explain, that he stayed on a caloric restricted diet and was eating pretty clean, but continued to stack on the weight again! His metabolism was all messed up. So happy for him that he found Dr. Bergs videos and started his way back to health by simply learning about keto and intermittent fasting, and applying small changes to his diet at first.
Yes, both he and Dr. Berg showed respect and constraint.Good on them!!😉
Yep. Very good
I love the journey to great health that Rob Kidney is on! I am a Psychotherapist and I am finding that the KETO diet plan is helping tremendously with elevating moods. It also helps my clients engage in treatment. No medication at all. I put it to the test first and followed up with research and the result is phenomenal!!!
you rock!
Rob Kidney You as well!!!!
Hi! Im a long term trauma survivor. Keto has helped me sooo much. I do all the veggies dr b recommends then mod fat and mod protein. 2 meals a day between 1 and 7. Best to you and your patients!
K Happy Thank you. I love hearing about your success. May it continue.
Depression is evil. I've dealt with it for over 25 years and I'm so done. I started doing keto because of my weight but have found that when I eat keto I don't have depressive tendencies as much as when I eat grains and sugar. The difference isn't just a little bit, it is noticeable. I'm so grateful I found this! Thank you for helping you're patients live a better quality life
I do 23hrs dry fast daily. My skin is soft and glowing And I get a good night's sleep and go to the gym in fasted state of about 20hrs.
No more craving or hunger anymore.
Blessings from Wolverhampton England to you all.
@Janice Bradley
There are TWO types of fasting.
Dry fasting is fast with no contact with water no brushing teeth or shower etc
Soft dry is no drinking water but you can have a shower and brush teeth etc.
23 hours without drinking water????? Daily???
@@hibasabbar1953 Yes I do for 4 to 6 weeks and then have a break for a week or two then go back to DRY Fast 23hrs daily most days.
@@billybabu isn't that dangerous? Risking dehydration?
@@hibasabbar1953 Its not for everyone especially if you have a medical condition or very hot country.
I started by pushing my breakfast from 7am to 9am then 12pm and found no hunger anymore craving anymore.
My skin is soft and glowing And I get a good night's sleep and go to the gym in fasted state of about 20hrs.
I have never felt better.
Good call to have a contestant of Biggest Loser on your show. Definitely made me click to watch.
This guy rocks......The kind of man you could definitely spend time with.
Rob, You are an inspiration to many people including myself. Thankyou for sharing
and you are a blessing to me.
Yes...testing Dr. Berg’s advice was what sold me. It works!
It is nice to hear two gentlemen discuss what works for them in terms of healthy diet, exercise, and lifestyle. Neither said anything inflammatory that would be regretted after the interview is broadcast. This is a good example of how to make healthy changes in your lifestyle. Most people are so rushed just making a living that good nutrition gets overlooked.
The food pyramid established so long ago is crumbling from it's own weight. The foundation of grains is being crushed by glyphosate and insulin resistance. Who will be industrious enough to rebuild the food pyramid to guide future generations to better health than what we have experienced in the preceding 5 decades?
The info on insulin was transformational for me.
Learning about insulin is one of the biggest redpills in the world.
Great interview. I appreciate the respect Rob Kidney showed for his experience on the BL...and his desire for new knowledge and understanding and willingness to apply good information on how to keep healthy and fit at any age. I'd say He IsThe Biggest Winner!
People’s reactions to a change in their preconceived notions are predictable. The idea of a high fat diet doesn’t align with their schemas. This is why a person like Jillian Michaels is fighting this battle.
“First people ignore you. Then they laugh at you. Then they fight you.”
The reason she is fighting against keto, is you don't have to buy anything but food to do the ketogenic diet. There are no powders, pills, or magic potions needed. Meters and test strips are completely optional too. Just eat low carb, and you will enter ketosis. If you want to accurately keep track of your food intake, use a free nutritional app, and buy a digital kitchen scale.
Rob is a very levelheaded guy. This video was very helpful. Thank Dr. BERG.
I sure do thank you for that comment specifically when my head felt so scattered. blessings
I think it's about 90% of The Biggest Losers put weight back on.
Now I'm learning that the 10% of those who keep it off, are not doing it the Jillian Michaels way, but at least one is using keto. WOW!
however you lose it, you have to maintain it. if you lose it in the gym you better not quit working out. if people approach Keto as a temporary diet ........ also weight gain. GET HEALTHY LOSE WEIGHT.
You're right about diets. But just because Jillian calls it a fad doesn't mean it is. It's a fad when it dies out because it doesn't work the way it should.
Keto does work. So it doesn't qualify as a fad. I'm living proof.
@Lonao this theory doesnt account for hormones or the gut biome. Nothing about the human body is simple....... we are complex systems.
@Lonao 'Calories in vs calories out' doesnt work for people with high insulin levels and slow metabolisms. Also it's 'lose', not 'loose'.
@Lonao Not true at all. Insulin resistance plays a big role in one's ability to lose weight. There is much more to it than simple calories in vs calories out. I Ongoing calorie restriction eventually takes a toll on your metabolism and it gets to the point that a reduced calorie meal has no effect. That is what happened to me until I found Keto and IF to heal my metabolism. It used to be very easy for me to lose weight but now only Keto and IF works for me.
This guy is so inspirational!!
Why so many separate comments.
No offense. thanks Jennifer
@@dug757 She did say 'inspirational' and Swamper60's comment illustrates how this ca happen :)
Slow & steady wins the race!!!
Great interview!
He’s blessed to be alive.
*reads the title*
*skips her Netflix show just to watch a 46 minute video*
Yep!
Thank you for mentioning how insulin resistance can make blood glucose rise even after a low carb meal. My husband has been having this issue and getting very discouraged. We’ve realized how severe his IR is and that it will take time to reverse.
never quit. we didn't get this way in a year and it takes time and lifestyle change. conquer the sugar cravings, then conquer all the artificial sweeteners (sugar free mints, gum, candy, drinks) no snacks, others may, but us IR folks may not.
Oh snap! Jillian Micheals has left the chat
I am milan lol
She was just for money
As long as she can endorse something for money or afvertise it for money
She wasn't even the trainer on his season. This was after she left a second time because she kept fighting with producers about their methods. I'm surprised people don't know this. The only reason she came back after she quit the first time was probably one money and two the producers said they'd stop doing what they did, but it proved a lie.
Great interview two honest people. Thank you for helping us get healthy and stay healthy.
The calcium needs vitamin D3 and K2 for the complete process. Vitamin D helps absorb, but K2 is what takes it out of the soft tissue and into the bones. Without K2 it is a recipe for heart disease due to calcification of the soft tissues, and more specifically the arteries! DR. Berg as well as many others deal with this in other videos. 👍
BigDaddyKev Yeah, surprised he didn’t mention that to him. Vitamin K2 (MK7), D3, and Magnesium.
boom!
Your absolutely right
He was trying not to be his doctor and give general help, me thinks...
Great interview, Dr. Berg! Thank you for letting your guest speak freely. The flow of conversation was smooth, comfortable & informative. 😊
i lost 12 kg doiin intermittent fasting and before i used to lose 3-4 kg by eating clean and cardio bt it always used to come back ..my metabolism was slow ...now i m tracking my calories and consumung 2500 calories and on bulking with weight trainng ..fasting increase metabbolism like crazy thnx dr berg
Ten minutes in, & my legs ache imagining working out that hard. That faster weight loss & constant workouts is impossible to maintain in real life long term. No wonder 95% regained. 💖🙂🐶
@maxi Bake-absolutely. That's a recipe for failure for sure. Unless you're hollywood, you can't sustain that lifestyle.
@@sifu1965 Hollywood, Lol. Exactly, your right, unsustainable. 💖🙂🐶
@@maxibake9323 Right, this was a show so that is all they did-same with many in Hollywood, modeling, entertainment figures etc. where it's all they do for a living (which is no life in my estimation)-except the 'successful' ones have personal trainers and chef's, etc. that do all of this in-home. Unrealistic for virtually anyone else.
@@matthewronson5218 Yep & true. 💖🙂🐶
I agree that intermittent fasting has been the key for us.
You're so right
Definitely!!
Check out all of Dr Berg's videos for great explainations. @@marileorube24
when fasting insulin goes down. when insulin is down you start loosing weight. it helps also to regulate insulin in general especially for diabetics and pre-diabetics who have insulin super high. insulin is an hormone rsponsible for the use of nutriments in our body and store fat as for survival purposes. in our societies , it is always high in our body. in fact no mamals is supposed to eat 6 meals a day. when a dog is sick because of food, they ask you to feed him once a day ....I was diabetic tye II, lost 40 ponds . and I am on medication as a kidney transplanted. I go to the gym in a fasted state and still gained muscle . Fasting boost testosterone and other beneficial hormones...
This interview is very helpful. Now more I understand about how our bodies function on keto. I got clarity on how important the correct type of fat intake is...that's what I didn't get before. I will definitely give keto a try!
40 hours a week? 😳😳😳😳😳
Take that Jillian, he's having success with keto
Plus I don't think you have to work out 40 hours a week. Keto is the answer.
David. You do not hv to work out to lose weight in fact, it can deter fat burning. You can stimulate fat burning w Dr Bergs tips from his books. I lost 29 pounds in42 days barely wrking out. I mean BARELY.
@@jen7025 I guess I need his book.
@@jen7025 It's still healthier that you do workout. Muscle is a big component to longevity and also burns more calories
@@jen7025 I agree. I always say wait a good 3 months or so until you incorporate exercise into a keto weight loss plan that way you get rid of the water weight first then your body can focus on burning fat with fasted exercise.
Thank you for this video! This video is a better response to Jillian Michaels' slam against keto than any other. An actual case study of how unsustainable the Biggest Loser lifestyle is in the real world and how great keto and IF are at effortlessly losing weight and keeping it off. Thank you Rob for your excellent testimonial. You are a great speaker and I appreciated your respect for The Biggest Loser for helping to change your life.
I lost 120 pounds about 9 years ago on a low fat calorie restricted diet and then proceeded to gain it all back and then some through two pregnancies. Now I have found keto and IF and I'm excited to transform my life healthily and sustainably. Thanks Dr. Berg!
Yes Dr Berg, please give us examples of what our plate should look like.
Yeah, it was all about weight loss as a game show without regard for long-term health. Essentially, if you didn't die on the show, their approach worked and after that you're on your own. Game shows man, gotta love 'em. No regard for a nutrition-based lifestyle, just dump weight and make money.
Guarantee if you were to get the statistics on the hundred plus people that have gone through the biggest loser, 75% of them have gained their weight back. And maybe even more. That would bust open the whole show
Yep, I don't know if they changed things on the show after Jill left, but I remember former contestants saying that they were given caffeine pills (which are basically what diet pills are) & they were forced to fast from water close to their weigh-ins in order to be lighter. They were also on very strict low calorie diets, & just as this man admitted worked out for several hours a day.
I don't know if this man is being entirely truthful, or if the show started changing things once former contestants started ratting them out, but this show looks at health in a very commercialized way. & I feel so bad that the former contestants were never taught how to have a healthy lifestyle, but are instead taught to go from one extreme to the next, which is crash dieting. I guess it was just a game show after all.
@@princess_shell I can only comment on my season for sure, it was tight as a drum and very professional. none of that wacky stuff could have happened.
Very nice job Dr Berg. Good to hear this gentleman talk about his journey. I’m really happy this chat stayed positive. You are doing this right. Thanks again. 👍
I am so happy that I found this video. I am a big Dr. Berg fan and watched many of his videos. Hearing from a person who has gone through the battle with all the ups and downs is just what I need right now. I have been intermittent fasting for about a month with no change in diet just to get the hang of it. Now I am ready to start keto but the clean version, meaning more chicken and fish over pork and beef. Great video Dr. Berg,
Rob was very respectful. It's obvious that he has learned a lot about nutrition both through Dr. Berg and the Biggest Loser. Great interview.
You should make your long format videos as a podcast. I am a software developer and I sit in front of a screen all day. Afterwards, I have no desire to watch any video over about 5 minutes long, yet I love your content. I will listen to content as I do yard/house work though.
40 hrs exercise? It's crazy
It is a second full time job.
Absolutely insane, especially considering they were likely in a pretty substantial calorie deficit. Very unsafe.
You can't have a job and family and maintain that lifestyle. Even an hour a day is hard for some people's schedules. No wonder they all gain the weight back after their metabolism is destroyed. Having several small meals a day puts their body into starvation mode, which slows down their metabolism.
Ain't nobody have time for that. 40 hrs a week??? That is too much work .
On the ranch it was 40 hrs. They had the time on the ranch but remember it was a competition.
Is it just me or do people on low carb/high fat diets seem calm and composed in their manner of speaking, as opposed to loud, agitated and defensive. I've observed this on a few already and wondered if there's a connection there. 🤔😊
Many of us stayed hungry all the time. Now we feel satisfied-very calming to us.
Dr. Berg, you’re looking healthier in this video! I am struggling right now but I have a lot of stress. I’m not stress eating but I think my hormones are screwed up. I am 2 weeks away from having a new hip. I am in Ecuador, speak very little Spanish and my husband has to go back to our home country in a week for 3 weeks so I’ll be alone. I’ve lost 90 pounds and have 22 more to go. My strategy is to eat healthy, keep up with exercises. I figure when I’m back on the road to recovery from the hip replacement surgery and getting more active, the weight will start coming off again. I go from OMAD to intermittent fasting , depending on my days. Thanks for all the useful info!
Stress is really bad. Try to do some relaxing things like walks in a green area (leave your phone at home) or swimming. Don't watch TV. Try to learn how to meditate and be at peace. It takes hard work but with practice you can do it.
I had bi laterial hip replacements 3 yrs ago and there was no stress or anxiety for me, in fact I looked forward to getting my mobility back and to my surprise I was up walking the next day and taking stairs as well, you have a lot to look forward to, no stress needed here. I could take care of myself right away. I was 52 yrs old then, put yourself in the mindset of a better life look beyond what you have to go through, trust me you won’t recall any of the surgery.
Jillian Michaels is a tool for industry. she's fantastic for industry. Why put her up on a pedestal or give her a break? Sorry...she is WRECKING people's lives!
Been on keto just over 3 weeks and already have hit several "plateaus". Doesn't matter. Just keep going and eventually it moves. Thank you SO MUCH for your help!
🙋🏻♀️Bob kidney became the biggest healthy ketoginic & IF diet winner👍 thanks Dr Berg🌷🌿💕🙏
* Rob Kidney 😊
36:35....its absolutely NOT OK for her to go spouting off at the mouth about something she obviously knows NOTHING about!. Some people take her word as "health gospel," its comparable to malicious malpractice in a doctor. She should stick with yelling at people and selling supplements, apps and cardio machines. EDIT.....earlier I used the word "supplements," what she is peddling are the ever-popular "fat burners!" The word supplement might be a bit of a stretch.
Truth. thank you
I loved this interview both Rod Kidney a and Dr Berg were extremely respectful to all parties. I loved what Rod had to say.
What a great bright guy . Well done Rob and hats off to you Dr Berg. The greatest thing we can do is To Help Somebody! You've helped thousands and I'm really inspired by you. What a great purpose. Siobhan Dublin. Ireland
I really enjoyed your conversation and learned so much. I thank both of you for sharing your experiences and knowledge.
Dr Berg, I love that you take the time to listen and i am so glad i found you on You Tube! It has only been a little over a week and i have lost 3lbs. But i am learning so much more about the Keto eating, i know this is for me . Maybe i will get my hubby on the Keto living. :) A BIG Thank You!! God Bless you and your family...
Wow! Signing up for the health coaching class today! Thank you Dr Berg!!!
rob is a Nice guy . What I love about IF and Keto is that the hunger is minimal and the results are so good. The understanding looks so thorough. well done
Very impressive interviews from both of you.
I'm truly glad you're enjoying this video!

Dr. Berg, thanks for giving us the education that allow people to make appropriate choices leading to better health!
Glad that the BL saved this guys life though he has had to find a new way of living.
Yep, out of tragedy comes enlightenment !! It has happened to me and my family's lives! Cheers!
What is BL?
I think and hope you are kidding, but if not I'll give you a little hint, read title of video
Sean, my previous comment was for Sean
Sean ....Biggest Loser , weight loss reality program that ruined many lives.
"I am eating to be healthy and the weight loss will follow". Way to go Rob, a great way to sum up what Keto, IF and clean nutrition should be all about. Huge Dr Berg fan, while I understand he often puts focus on weight loss as this appeals to a lot of people, I feel tremendous support from his huge video library directed at health solutions. I have adopted his anti-aging goal as one of my own life goals: "Every year I am a year younger".
Amazing interview this is really getting my day started right! I love interviews like this from z-list celebrities on health and fitness. You are great interviewer too!
In late August of 2018 I had a health scare that turned out to be nothing, but I used it as a wake up call to get myself healthy. From that moment I started following Dr Berg's advice, I started to feel a lot better. I started with Dr. Berg's youtube videos to get educated and transformed my health for the better. I haven't reached all my goal yet, but I'm well on my way - thank you Dr Berg.
When I started my new lifestyle, I went from two meals a day, but quickly graduated to having one huge salad every day, full of Cruciferous Vegetables and healthy fats. I must admit, I eat more protein than Dr. Berg recommends, but so far so good.
The reason I'm commenting on this video is to first let everyone know that I like Dr Berg's advice and use his information as a part of my health education foundation, but I still have to challenge my mentors to improve my understanding of things.
This is my question. Dr Burg says, "the presence of even a small amount of insulin blocks the body's ability to burn fat". If that's true, how are these people on The Biggest Loser, losing so much weight when they are constantly eating small meals throughout the day? Is there a point, that in the presence of insulin the body is still capable of burning fat? Don't get me wrong, I understand that going to the gym 6 hours a day isn't sustainable (unless you're a physical trainer), but doesn't the fat loss on the Biggest Loser, fly in the face of Dr Berg's theory of insulin blocking the body's ability to burn fat? Again, I feel great following a lot of what Dr Berg has said in his youtube videos and I will be forever grateful for his efforts, but I would like to understand and improve my health even further. Thank you for any responses to this question.
I really don't like the repeated assertion that the only "healthy" version of keto is one that has a focus on lots of vegetables, fiber, and supplements and that a keto eating plan that focuses primarily on fatty meats and low to no fiber is somehow "less than" or not as healthy as when a lot of vegetables are being consumed. In my own personal experience after having been eating keto since 2012 with an emphasis on fatty meats like ribeye steak, other beef, cheese, and a heck of a lot of bacon and hardly any vegetables, I have repeated blood and urine test results that are perfect again and again, normal blood pressure, absolutely no sign of diabetes, and a resting heart rate in the 50s.
I have never been more healthy, and you won't be able to convince me that the only way that I could somehow be healthier is to add all of the vegetables to my diet. They are simply not necessary for me to be healthy. The same goes for taking any kind of supplements. I do not take any supplements. Every single nutrient I need is in the meat that I am consuming.
I keep hearing people talk about "good fats", and to me, the only fat that isn't good is artificial trans fats. Any fat that is produced by nature, like the fat in meats, is what we need to be eating.
I do not track everything I eat, I don't worry about calories, and I am thriving. I feel like people try to somehow make keto appear healthy by saying that all these vegetables have to be eaten in order for it to be considered healthy and to appeal to a society who has been told over and over for the past 50 years that vegetables are healthy, so if our diet has lots of vegetables in it then we can convince people to do it and think that it's more healthy than if you choose to primarily focus on fatty cuts of meat.
If my approach was somehow unhealthy, I feel that after doing it for the past 6.5 years that I would have started to show some signs that my body isn't healthy, but that simply isn't the case. I had a coronary artery calcium test done recently just to check to see if I had some risk, and my result was a perfect 0.
I don't doubt that a keto diet that has a lot of low carb vegetables as a part of it can't be healthy, but I really hope that Dr. Berg will stop saying that eating lots of vegetables is the "healthier" version of keto. I don't think that it is. Stop being afraid of saturated fat. That is old dogma that just won't seem to go away, even with some in the keto community. Saturated fat is healthy, period, and I am living, breathing proof.
Just for reference, I'm a male in my 50s. I started in 2012 at 415 pounds and lost my first 100 pounds in my first 9 months of doing keto, and have slowly transitioned to intermittent fasting and lately I have started water fasting for between 24 and 72 hours to tap into the benefits of autophagy. I've never felt better. Since that first 9 months I've taken off an additional 75 pounds and am still very slowly coming down. I have kept the weight off and plan to never go back to the evils of eating processed grains and sugar and "food" that comes in boxes. Never, ever again.
Congrats, there is a lot of us right there with you Dennis, I like Dr Berg but I do pray that he sees the light eventually. Been Keto a year, last couple of months some Carnivore, they still speak about the fat like it's something to fear or be careful of! I am down 60 pounds, high liver enzymes and high blood pressure back to normal, back, leg and knee pain and swelling all better! I feel great, just turned 62. I walk , work out a little and I live upstairs so I walk 15 steps kind of steep steps up and down 8 to 10 times a day. My energy level better than in years! Anyways, thanks for sharing and all the best to you all! I eat fat back, bacon, steaks, and more, not a ton of it but I don't all that stuff they speak of and my blood work is good! True Keto for Life!
Totally agree Dennis, many of us are right there with ya! I agree with all you shared!
For the colon veggies are very important. Do what you like but kidney stones may be on the way. To each their own. Best to you.
Enjoyed watching this interview. I actually watched the whole thing. Great show, thanks Dr Berg & Rob Kidney.
This was great! I really appreciate Rob - and thank you Dr. Berg --- thank you SO much --- I think this was one of the BEST VIDEOS I've seen -- great help for us all to see you two speak about Keto with joy, class, scientific knowledge and real advice for us all.
wow thanks for the kind words. blessings
Thank you Rob. You’ve motivated me to keep track of my meals. I hope Dr. Berg brings you back for more videos.
Thank you Dr. Berg your advice and videos have transformed my health.
What a nice man!! God Bless You Rob!! You deserve love and peace ❤️
Thanks for your honesty!!
God is awesome. I thank him for the do-over and you for the kindness.
Great interview! Really happy for your guest Rob Kidney-good stuff!!! 👏👏👏 👍👍👍
I want to complement Dr Berg and his guest Rob Kidney for sharing his struggles and accomplishments, on the road to better health and proper weight management.
Rob, Best Wishes and Good Health!
What an interesting man! Great conversation. So insightful and positive. 🙌
Biggest Loser is like going to the emergency room. They really save lives, good at intervention, but what about the rest of your life?
Sandra Bentley The biggest loser, was like going to the emergency room having them just put a Band-Aid on the problem, even though they needed a bigger bandage.
I eat between 50-60g of fat a day, one of my friends told me that 70% was way too much. She said her doctor said she shouldn’t do it because she has no gallbladder and it was too high fat. I entered her days worth of food and it was 200g carbs, 115g fat, 142g protein and 2500 calories! I think a lot of the public and a lot of doctors are ill informed on actually what Keto diet is. I can’t wait until everyone catches on and realises what is actually healthy for us. Keep up the good work Rob
thank you so much this was one of your best interviews .I will be listening again
You can’t expect people to exercise 8-10 hours a day and then go home to a full time job and a life and maintain that kinda weight loss.
I also want to thank Dr. Berg for allowing the guest to speak. What a rarity. Rob, you are such an upbeat person. I'm so glad that you found the KETO way of eating (WOE). It's too bad that so many people who don't understand what it is feel that they must tell us that we're going to die. ;-) As for Jillian. I respect her for what she has done. I hope that she'll look into what KETO really is and how much it's helped people. An open mind is a good thing...as long as the brains don't fall out.
Wonderful interview! Thank you both very much. I listened to the whole thing while I cleaned my shop (thank you, Dr. J Peterson) (who, by the way, you should also interview).
PS. Please do show examples of good meals. I remember being confused about that when I started keto over a year ago. Thank you Dr. Berg.
This interview is very interesting. But, why do we have to put so much thought and planning into what we're eating? Fats, carbs, protein, etc...fasting....can't I just eat clean and get on with my life without all of this planning of foods?
The obsession absolutely changes people’s relationship with food, unfortunately.
Love that you kept the respect level high and hit Jillian with the real science and Paleo model. I have been watching you for about two years now and appreciate your honest approach and desire to see people reach attainable more healthy results. Unfortunately, her financial interests block her from doing the real research. Have a feeling as she gets older, she may see the light.
Eating the keto way has helped me. I'm feeling better. I haven't dropped a lot of weight but I have dropped inches. My belly has gone down and feels squishy not flabby. I don't have this big hard drum of a belly anymore. I can tie my shoes without struggling. Grant you I have a ways to go but I'm not looking so much at the scales as I am the way my clothes fit. I don't feel stuff in my clothes anymore. I can move more freely. I believe that I've lost the inner fat around my organs which really makes a difference in mobility. I'm not starving at all. Food is not a constant thought in my mind anymore. I feel satisfied. My thoughts are centered around living,family and projects that I want to do. Once you start eating the keto way you just feel better. You don't feel hungry all the time at all. You have more energy. Your more relaxed in life itself. Your not haunted by the thought of food all the time. It's a great feeling. It breaks the hold that food has had on you. Keto is a life changer in so many way.
You both are amazing & inspirational!👏
Wow, Rob is doing great. Not everybody can stick to that kind of eating and non-eating. Great guy,
I did intermittent fasting for about 8 months when I was stuck in my postpartum weight loss. It continued to be a challenge as my grelin is strong and stubborn but I loved it. Then I got pregnant (which is awesome and miraculous as I have PCOS so we didn’t expect it without clomid 🙌🏻.)
Now I have morning sickness and throw up when my stomach is empty and carbs feel the best on my stomach. 😕 This does convict me to at least focus on getting more veggies. Can’t wait for this first trimester to end!
It’s nice to see such a success story.
Incredible informational video. And it was done without bashing any other diets. Well done Dr. Berg. I hate diet bashing! Just because something works for you doesn't mean that it will work for others. "Eat to be healthy and the weight loss will follow" Amen!
Excellent interview... I have learned much more than just eating healthy... I know the human anatomy so well, I now understand the function of every organ.
I learned a lot from this interview. Thanks to both of you!
This is my favorite Dr Berg video have been overweight my whole life FInally an answer Thank you Dr Berg for your life saving work
i respect his appreciation for the program turning his life around because i would probably be so much more bitter. y’all have good vibes 💕
Vitamin k2 for calcium obsorbtion into the bones.
Vitamin D with K2
This is so great to see. All these people who went on biggest looser and lost 100 plus pounds each, but almost all added the pounds back and then some.
These folks are not losers, they were dedicated and each became quasi fitness experts, to have this happen is a big sign that what we are told about diet and exercise is lies.
So glad this gentleman switched to Keto, and is finding long term success.
What an inspiring story..👍...Thanks 🙏 to both of u
Congrats on finding what works for you! I have a similar mindset now - long term - way of life.
Thank you dr Berg! Great video! Rob Kidney I have a big respect for people like you, who take such a good care of their health and are hungry for more knowledge of how to maintain better results in your life. You definitely are a good example for people around you! 👍
ahhh so honored. i choose life.
I started keto diet a week now and I feel so so good 😊. Thank you Dr Berg .
That's good!
