    Very interesting, this guy should really win some kind of medical award for these videos on this stuff. Nobody and I've seen like three different doctors now have been able to explain any of this. They've just been like take this, take this, take this..... This is really helpful. I am now realizing that I don't have to have breakfast these days. I used to never be hungry in the morning but always ate anyways cause they said breakfast is the most important meal of the day...what a mistake. I should have listened to my body and not eat until I was hungry.

    This was so helpful to me. The sweats around the neck at night in bed cause me to use a cold, wet facecloth across my throat all night long. Also, I am up and down once every 45mins all night to use the bathroom. Once I get to sleep, I awaken within 20 mins shaking , vibrating all night long. Thank you for answering what no doctor, including my endocrinologist, could do .

    I used to have this hypoglycemia symptons A LOT . When it happened I used to have black spots visions, super extremely hungry, couldnt think straight, all I wanted was strawberry jam, anything sweets!! But since I found out about IF thru Dr Berg, I never experience any more symptoms. I was worried before what happened if I do the fasting and I would get the attack.. surprise surprise I HAVE NOT EXPERIENCED IT ANY MORE! I am on OMAD now for the last 3 weeks and I am feeling great! Lost tremendous weights, no more joint pains, and no more migren! I used to have hormonal acnes, now not anymore. Thank you Dr Berg 🙏🙏🙏

    Hi. What are some fats that can help me with this issue? I have Hashimotos and yesterday after some blood results, my doctor told me I have hypoglycemia. I read bad alcohol habits can cause, hypoglycemia. Now this video makes sense. I may have a insulin resistance problem my body created from my high alcohol consumption. My body may have been protecting me, but now it’s causing this hypoglycemia problem. I don’t drink alcohol anymore and it’s been about a decade since I’ve abused alcohol. I think insulin resistance may be the root of my problems. Going to manage my meals and hopefully my body adapts and heals itself. Thank you for all of these great videos.

    This was very informative. In recent years I've been waking up with headaches sweaty neck thinking that it's because I'm in my late 40s that I'm going through "Man-o-pause."
    So, I've been doing a combination of a Paleo diet with intermittent fasting for about three weeks. I have removed all gluten, dairy, sugar from my dietL Last night I broke and had ice cream before bed. I didn't realize until this morning that I had not been waking up with those symptoms. This morning I feel like I'm hung over. Sweaty neck headache and even some body aches.

    I don't have diabetes but I was on a serious calori deficit diet. I was eating anywhere 1200 to 1500 calories a day for the last 7 months. I was waking up in the middle of the night sweating and heart racing.Been to the doctors blood test normal. I finally found out what I was going through was nocturnal hypoglycemia from being on such a restricted diet everyday.

    Finally, found a video that basically answers my question.
    I often have hyperinsulinemia symptoms. My a1c is 4.8. Lastonth I requested a fasting insulin test. It was 12.16. Glucose was 86.
    Researching trying to find the answer I ran across insulinoma and a couple of things that made me concerned.
    Hopefully all I need is to continue on with ketovore and hopefully eventually I can start fasting longer.

    I have reactive hypoglycemia. My doctor told me to start tracking my blood sugar as a diabetic would and to also eat a diabetic diet (low carb). She said the pancreas eventually becomes exhausted over time from the hypoglycemia and could turn to full blown diabetes. I was not aware of that and no other doctor seem to know this.

    • @FrankZen

  • @ashhole984
    @ashhole984 7 лет назад +6

    Makes sense. The last time I had my dizzy spell it was the worse I ever had. It was at nighttime too. The worse part was my heart rate was up. It took awhile for me to get back to normal levels. I couldn't even get to the kitchen to eat something. This was months ago. I usually drink juice to help my low blood sugar. My blood sugar always seemed to be normal when I did take it yet my insulin came up to 5.8. I'm down 2 points and that was a year ago. I'm on metformin 500mg for 3 yrs now. My appointment is next week. I'm hoping I'm off the meds for good. IF and keto is a blessing for me. 2-3 meals a day and I'm good to go. It's been 3 months and I'm so close to a pant size down. I've lost 95lbs before going keto.

  • @TheWinners84
    @TheWinners84 Год назад +7

    So I’ve followed dr berg for a while and tend to follow his advice, but only intermittently 😂. Joking aside I tend to feel better when following the low carb intermittent fasting, trouble is carbs are easy to get so I end up not sticking to it. In the last 48 hours I started using a continuous glucose monitor and ate how I would “normally”. Blood sugars went up and then came back down as you would expect giving me confidence all was well. What surprised me and the reason I’m watching this video was the nocturnal hypoglycaemia it picked up. I woke with a headache and feeling tired (not uncommon) to see I had for most of the night had blood sugar below 4mmol/l and at some points below 3 mmol/l.

  • @june2420111
    @june2420111 2 года назад +5

    I have these symptoms but no hunger at night. However, I can't do IF. I've always been very skinny and am always trying to increase my weight and muscle mass, it's dropped even more during the pandemic due to lack of daily activity compared when I worked from an office, if I do IF I simply lose more weight. I work out 5-6x/week, I enjoy working out and lifting. IF is an awesome tool for weight loss but you should also talk about those of us trying to increase weight (in a healthy manner of course).

    My husband and I did Keto for 5-6 years. It was great but I seriously cannot do low carb, it started to mess with me long term. I eat a healthy, well rounded diet and still having trouble sleeping. Think I may ask my pcp for a continuous blood glucose monitor or that fasting insulin test you talked about. I will call them today and see what they recommend.

    • @katiie7
      @katiie7 6 лет назад +2

      Clean your liver and fast for a bit. Water only. Until i did this when i was 26 i was a toothpick. Water fasting will stimulate HGH (human growth hormone) cleaning your liver will help your body make enough enzymes to break down your foods and have a healthy insulin response. When you are eating combine carbs and fats. But don’t eat all the time. That was the worst mistake. I was constantly overloading my body and I couldn’t break down my foods to absorb them. HCL is a great supplement to help with stomach acidity. Good luck

    • @FreeUrMindz
      @FreeUrMindz 5 лет назад +1

      Katie •NOT good advice. Definitely dont want to combine fat and carbs. Carbs with fats immediatly ups your triglycerides and clogs arteries depositing artery clogging plaque AND ads the worst kind of fat ala white fat and usually in the form of visceral fat deposits around your organs. Instead combine lots of HEALTHY fats with moderate protein OR carbs with low fat vegetables but never fats with carbs. Always include atleast some sort of fiber with either option thought. But the absolute healthiest and best way to gain weight is to do some sort of resistance training. Good Luck.

    I’ve gotten to the point where I just don’t trust doctors anymore. I get treated like I’m just a hypochondriac because the tests don’t tell me I’m hypo or that I have anything wrong at all. I even had a doctor tell me, “You just need to eat more.” And said, “I can’t help you then.” When I refused anxiety pills. No advice on how to do anything except just eat more. I have no apatite most of the time in general. I think I’ve come to realize my sensitivity to smells just might be part of that. I’ve seen multiple doctors in the past and I feel like they just won’t help me to this point.
    This info is interesting, and I will need to try adjusting my diet. I don’t eat much but I definitely don’t eat right. Thanks for these videos. I’m tired of feeling terrible all the time.

    Have started IF and Keto bc I started having blood sugar crashes. Still trying to get the balance. My blood sugar still gets low. Not sure why. I think I need to increase my protein. As a vegetarian it's been a challenge getting even 2 oz of protein a meal. I rarely eat 3 meals. Usually only 2, to keep my blood sugars level, fluctuating between and 8 or 12 hour eating window depending on when I need to eat and then fasting outside those hours.

    Good tip about consuming some more protein - I've been having a lot of headaches lately, and I've been waking up hungry. Really hungry, like, with my stomach growling louder as time goes by, so any attempts to do IF are not pleasant at all. I've also been more irritable in general. It most likely has to do with the fact that I have been able to get in a lot more exercise now than I could a few months ago, because I finally seem to have gotten rid of a stubborn chronic injury. (It was piriformis syndrome, FYI - it would not let me do much of anything without making it feel like someone had stuck a knife in the back of my leg.)

  • @johnwhitehall3805
    @johnwhitehall3805 4 года назад +1

    Good video this is something that isn't understood well. A couple things that have helped me are using different energy pathways. Be careful but personally actual fruit seems to be ok if eating in small quantities where fruit juice is always a no. More fructose gets converted directly to glycogen an intermediate energy storage molecule held in the liver/ muscles. For those who have issues when they exercise it is probably linked to glycogen and lactic acidosis. Milk and lactose as long as your not intolerant utilizes another energy pathway and I seem to do better when I have chocolate milk on hand. The other thing that is KEY for me are eggs. A few things to possibly look into :)

    T2 Diabetic on insulin, with Hashimotos. 18 months on KETO IF. Labs greatly improved. But started having midnight glucose in the 40s and falling asleep after 20 - 30 carb dinner, but not after breakfast of zero carbs. Doctor says eat every 4 hours on the ADA diet of 30 carbs per 3 main meals and have a bedtime snack with milk. I'm staying 2 meals a day, adding a few more than the 20 carbs I've been doing, adding the night time snack and my morning glucose has gone from 90s to 130s. I suspect my A1c, which went from 7.5 to 6.0 will go back up.

    This kinda does not make sense to me, if your body needs blood sugar, and you cut out complex carbs, how are you supposed to get the blood sugar? Complex carbs break down into sugars right? You're saying you should cut out sugars when you need blood sugars?

    • @mithidas4295
      @mithidas4295 Год назад

      Hypoglycemia is caused by hyperinsulinemia.Insulin Index of protein is less compared to that of carbs.Hence addition of protein to dinner may help.Of course,during hypoglycemic episode you must take sugar to save you.

If I don’t have sugar before bed, I wake up about 2 hours later, and can’t sleep. I’ve done a test and it’s 100% the sugar. So, I’m stuck having some sugar before bed to actually sleep all night?!?

    Great video, but I am not clear on the time axis on the graph wasn’t made explicit. Are we talking about postprandial dips that occur a couple hours after eating and going to sleep, or are we talking about something like going to sleep 6-7 hours after eating with 110 mg/dL glucose, and then having it fall below 70 after a few hours? There’s quite some difference in these scenarios. I am experiencing hypoglycemia without a glucose peak preceding it.

    I get this, not necessarily just at night although I’m starting to wonder about that, I thought it was just me thing. I randomly got quite sever hypoglycaemic symptoms but my blood sugar tests are always normal, I couldn’t lose weight because I couldn’t not eat for sufficiently long enough. I tried small meals to balance my blood sugar but they simply weren’t satisfying and really didn’t help. I’ve gone keto and it’s gone for the most part. I now just get hungry rather than becoming a shaky, nauseous, uncoordinated, sweaty, angry monster. More importantly if I can't eat even for 6hrs after I get hungry it’s not a big
    deal; this is a complete revelation for me. One of the big things I have also noticed on keto is that I sleep much better. Whilst I wasn’t waking up with hypoglycaemic symptoms I’m wondering if it was affecting the quality of my sleep?
