    Root/core issue for me was an abusive x husband...lived in flight or fight mode for years...he was seriously slowly killing me and my adrenal fatigure and lack of cortisol production were my signs. I left -healed my body and becoming better and better every day. People don't talk about this enough when it comes to relationships - you must leave them in order to heal not only your mind but your body as well.

All of it is summed up here , I'm yet to try more of nutrients like magnesium, but exercise, focus on gut health, breathing (box, sudarshan kriya) if stress is like fire, all these are like water shower, though we think how are they gonna help with stress, they are not addressing the cause of stress ...but these are magical things that changes our view, or equips us to handle things with ease.

    Topic: As an Olympic Decathlete and Holistic Doctor, you would know about, and have personal experience, this. Strength building in conjunction with a ketogenic nutritional program.
    My personal interest in this is diagnoses of MS and Type 2 Diabetes. I've lowered A1C from 12.9 to 6.4 in 10 weeks, gone from 250 to 185 lbs in 5 months (since March) and feel like I can start to exercise now (and have started 30-minute, overall body, resistance band workout) to overcome muscle atrophy in right leg, neuropathy in feet, overall weakness, etc. Seeing many positive results already

      Wayne Rogers for muscle atrophy, joints...check into acupressure. I had neurologists, all kinds of specialists making money on tests or whatsoever attest that I am close to a paraplegic and there is no need to test again. Accidentally in Singapore I ran into a reflexologist who after an hour rubbing at one same location in between toes, I walked out with no pain for the rest of my life. I didn't know Keto then and many acupressure practitioners are vegetarians eating one meal a day. I vowed never go back to those specialists, only listen to Dr Eikberg, my favorite and practice acupressure daily besides the list of things shown on this video. Life is perfect and I'm grateful. Check out the temples. The monks are not there to make money. You have to see their practice to believe. Know that they can show you how to cure because they believe if anything comes back within 6 months then they did not cure anything. Trust me, you will be cured.

    Speechless! So much truth and meaning in this video Dr Ekberg. So many things which we have forgotten. It's funny how a breathing exercise I learnt in 2003 actually mentioned breathing out and holding the breath as activating the para sympathetic nervous system. And I'd been skimping on it in the past number of years. At that time I didn't know about Cortisol, GH and weight-loss. I'd been doing Keto for a long time with not much result and then in the past year or so got lazy and gained back the weight. Now have again started again. It's most definitely been the cortisol. Since I got married and shifted home my sleep wake cycles changed cz of my husband. Now I need to go back to my old ways of sleeping at least by 11. He's such a night bird but it will need to be done for me by me. I have tests scheduled for Cortisol etc. Hope to surprise my doctor with good results. Funny how a small change can change everything. Thank you Dr Sten... Will follow and make things right again 🤗🤗
