![7 Skin Signs of INSULIN RESISTANCE [WARNING: Graphic]](/img/1.gif)
Thank you so much for sharing this! My OBGYN just recommended keto/carnivore.
My OBGYN also recommended keto
My sense is that more traditional doctors are either recommending keto or at least they're not against it. My family doctor would never recommend keto, but he approves of my doing it and tells me to keep it up because he sees the positive results. So things are changing.
Good for you! My OB, while pregnant, last year, hopelessly confused ketosis with ketoacidosis and wanted me off the diet.
@@jessiel7694 thats great!
@@Nonduality I find most traditional doctors are super outdated in their research but advocating for ourselves is so important too. Finding a doctor who will work WITH you.
I let myself go to a pretty bad state. At over 500lbs I discovered your channel Ken. You helped inspire me to start my weight loss journey channel. Now I’ve already dropped over 20lbs after just 1 week! Watch this space!
Congratulations on your first 20! You can do this Jamal. There is a lot of help on this channel! We all support you on your journey!
Way to go. Keep on going.
It’s not going to be easy but I’m starting too!
Yippee! Congratulations!
I have a cousin in the same state. I'm trying to get this channel in front of him too. I myself lost 65 lbs over the last year by following Dr. B's diet.
I was diagnosed with PCOS about ten years ago in my early 20s. I was insulin resistant and hadn’t had a period in almost a year. My gynecologist prescribed metformin and birth control. She also told me to start weight watchers because it was a “heart healthy” diet. Eight years went by, no change. My hair started to fall out so she prescribed spironolactone.
I heard about keto in 2017 but it terrified me because saturated fat makes you have heart attacks right?! But I was at my whit’s end so I decided to give it a try. I told my gynecologist I was stopping all meds and I would check in with her in 3 months.
I started keto in March 2018 and I had my first real period in a decade in April! My hair stopped falling out. I finally started losing weight. My insulin resistance disappeared. My cholesterol dropped. My PCOS completely resolved itself and I’ve been on no prescription pills since! Keto changed my life!!!
So happy for you. It's nice to read success stories like this.
Did you have abnormal hair as a symptoms ?
Do you have to stay eating keto for the rest of you're life?
@@18gonma yes, it’s a life style change for the better.
@@18gonma If something reversed your medical condition and changed your life, why would you want to stop it and go back to what made you sick. Keto is not a fad diet. It is the way you were meant to eat.
Keto diet helped our 26 year old daughter with PCOS AND Insulin resistance. She has gone from 208 to 140 pounds. She feels so much better.
Was diagnosed with PCOS when I was 17, they put me on Metformin and birth control. I was so sick on the medication but they kept telling me to just stick with it and it will get better, and they said that the best way to reverse it was to lose weight but with PCOS it was near impossible to lose weight so good luck. Well, after 10 years of constantly being sick, in pain, having doubled my weight on the medications and in a fog, I stopped the Metformin and birth control and started a Keto diet. I lost 80lbs, my skin is better, my hair is trying to grow back and my glucose numbers are normal. Please remember, this is my story and what I had to do to get better, I am not saying just stop your medications on your own, but the Keto diet saved me, so I do recommend looking into it for PCOS.
Is your hair really trying to grow back?? I'm going to try out this diet for pcos and I really want to revers my alopecia.. it's definitely one of the worst syntoms for me..

@@clau6972 It really is. It is a very slow process, but it is so much better then it used to be. I wish you luck and hope it helps you as much as it did me.
@@risikaamarissa6027 Thanks, that gives me hope! I also wish you luck and I hope you stay healthy!
I started watching you 6 months and 62 lbs ago. I started this journey apprehensively as I was fighting the voices in my head of our public school education on healthy eating and my family's traditional diet of heavy heavy bread/carbs. ( my mom and her 15 siblings often speak of the sugar sandwiches that they took to school as that was what they had. ) I have PCOS and had just resigned myself to enduring all that that entailed. Finding you gave me hope. I do not say that lightly. I feel so much better than I have felt in years. I was headed towards type 2 diabetes (like the majority of my family) at an almost for certain pace. I never comment on anything but today your video just absolutely made me feel such overwhelming gratitude that I had to try to let you know that you have changed the direction my health was headed in. THANK YOU! You explain things in an easy, sometimes a bit sassy, way that is relatable and yet when I need a kick in the but you are there with that too. Incredible job, please don't stop pushing the truth to the top.
You should comment more often, thanks for sharing.
Well put. Nourish your body!
Thanks for posting your story, Linda. Please post an update on your progress.
I’m a first year med student and went to a diabetes conference a few weeks ago.
They went over drugs and treatments, but not once did I hear carnivore. Keto and omad were mentioned briefly towards the very end but completely glossed over. The speaker said that the American population isn’t willing to do keto and omad, and didn’t say any more about any of those topics. So sad.
I love reading on this channel about people’s comments like how keto, fasting, etc helped lower their A1C levels. As a future physician, it’s definitely what I’ll be recommending to my patients.
I go to a school in CA and the conference was in Cali as well.
Well that is the sad truth though. Big pharma make an obscene amount of money because people want the 'easy' way out. They don't want to give up the food they love (or rather are addicted to). They live in denial that their health condition is not something they caused themselves (albeit unintentionally due to lack of knowledge) because they don't want to take responsibility for their own life.
@@penultimania4295 I think you have a definite point in how some people want the 'easy way' (meds) when dealing with diabetes and other lifestyle diseases. A lot of people put blind trust in their doctors without thinking critically or seeking a second opinion. Some people think that if they take the meds they can still eat processed junk all day everyday like it's a magic pill. Part of that is lack of general nutritional education. Doctors aren't focusing on diet, and they are not really taught in medical school about diets which i think is insane. I think socioeconomic reasons like poverty poverty and adequate access to medical care are also major factors of how people choose to deal with their chronic disease.
@@lily5952 yes! Long story but my mom, at age 79, saw a functional med doc and stopped eating grains and most carbs (no processed food). Her COPD of 30 years disappeared. She was 4’ 10” and lost at least 30 lbs. Obese diabetic step-dad had always eaten as much sugar as he wanted cause he could just take insulin 🙄. He started eating what she ate for support (and cause she nagged 😆) and he has lost 120 lbs, down to very little insulin. He recently started intermittent fasting, one meal a day. He’s losing more weight and feeling great! He could hardly walk before and now he is in his workshop, which HE built a couple of years ago. He’s turning 86!!
Brief as I can..Always had issues from beginning of periods. By age 37, I was having surgery . My Gyn called my surgeon “boyfriend”, saying “ while I’m in here, I need to do a hysterectomy. I can only save 1/4 of 1 ovary , and maybe half of the other”. My BF said no, save any part of any ovary no matter how small. He was firm!!! We broke up, My now husband and I had a healthy boy when I was 40. He is the best kid/adult ever, and has multiple degrees, getting a phd now. Never given us one minute of grief. Never give up.
This diet seems to be the answer to so many issues. This video is a sign to take this trend seriously and change the lifestyle.
Do it girl! I did back in 2018, best decision of my life!
Do it…reversing my T2D
Keto is the best “diet” ever. I’ve been closer to carnivore for the last two years and love it. Sure makes meal planning easy. I don’t have PCOS but it has helped arthritis a lot.
Thank u
I have been struggling with PCOS and lost of smell,I didn't know what to do felt so confused then a friend of mine introduce me to Dr iyaremoses on RUclips channel who helped me get back to normal..
When I first started Keto I actually started to reduce pain and inflammation in my back. Three months later I noticed my PCOS symptoms had gotten so much better so I started researching PCOS and Keto specifically. Now I recommend it to everyone!!
Oh Dr Berry, PCOS. I had no idea what I had was PCOS when I was in my 20s, and 30s. Certainly my OBGYN didn’t say anything about my diet when I had periods twice monthly and was infertile too. Tried to get pregnant for a few years and the Dr recommended me doing IVF so I did for my two kids ended spending so much time , energy, and of course money. A alot of women who are infertile would resonate with me on this.
Ever since I started proper human diet journey as Dr Berry recommended almost 8 years ago, my PCOS is long gone and my period is on point every month
I am a 49 year old female that I never ever had a unpainful and regular period until this journey. . Thank you so much Dr.
Keep fighting Kraft and general foods doctor
Excellent!!!!! I’m PCOS and keto and if has dramatically improved my symptoms and aided weight loss
Been telling my Sister in law for 2 years she needed to go low carb or keto for her PCOS. Her and her mom called me crazy while asking me how I was losing so much weight. She had a softball sized cyst removed at the beginning of this summer. Another has already grown to that size with her very high carb diet. Thankfully, her doctor has now said that keto will help her so she is on the right track, but she will likely lose that ovary because she didn't want to listen earlier. 😥
A lot of people think their doctor is g-d.
I'm not saying there aren't good doctors who know what they're doing but a patient needs to do research and at least try something different
@@lisag18it's true because there are a lot of time to where doctors misdiagnose patients, push pills that they don't need, don't listen to them and when you ask for a certain blood test it is like pulling teeth! A lot of them just think about the $$$ they are going to get instead of actually helping their patients. NOT ALL ARE LIKE That BUT MOST ARE! I lost my Co worker a month ago who was misdiagnosed and had the doctor looked deeper, she would have gotten the help she needed and would have still been alive! I also believed that she had PCOS as well because she had some facial hair on her chin just like me. They thought she had the stomach flu and acid reflux but it was far more serious than that... she was rushed to the hospital, had emergency surgery and then her blood pressure went dangerously low where she was on life support and as a result her organs failed and she died. Outrageous!
Keto has really helped with my PCOS symptoms amongst other things. What happened to my ADHD? Still there, but symptom improvement. Now to decide what is for supper... Burgers or bacon with liver and onions. Some days it's difficult to decide 😉
🤣 I can relate.
Bacon. Bacon is always the answer.
Also data on PCKD. Aswell. Short story the cysts are using glucose/insulin to grow. Another great video!!!
Articles have shown reversal of ADPCKD by improving diet and moving into a state of ketosis.
I wish I could find a doctor like you in Delaware. My doctor called today and an ultrasound came back that I have a fatty liver. The first thing she mentioned was get off of Keto. I do not know why it is a problem now because I have been doing Keto/Carnevore for awhile but I could not convince her that I have to stay on this way of life for my diabetes alone. It is the first time I am getting normal blood sugar readings.
Great video. People with PCOS believe they can't lose weight and it's nice to to know there is someone fighting for us.
Yes!!! I was prescribed keto for insulin resistance, hadn't had a cycle in 5 years, but was misdiagnosed with irregular ovulation. 6 mos into keto and my cycle came back so strong they first thought it was uterine cancer. Ruled that out and was re-diagnosed PCOS. I'm more ketovore now, and in such better shape inside and out! (90 pounds dropped is a beautiful bonus too)
I wish Dr. Berry still practiced here. Miss going to his clinic. He was helping me tremendously.
Love you Doctor Ken!!!! Keep doing the great work!
I’ve had severe pcos for 35+ years. I’m 49. I’ve always said it was 3 times harder for me to lose weight than other people, and I was right!!! 😂 I cut out all carbs and sugar and basically went paleo-keto 20+ years ago, but I’ve still had lots of problems. I only had 1 natural period in my life, when I was 14. Docs told me I had to be on birth control, so I did that until I had a hysterectomy at 30. I tried going off the pill a few times and just never had periods- but I felt a lot better off of them. I’ve had 22
cyst ruptures that all should have put me in the ER. The foundational research on pcos was done in the 70s, but conventional medicine still doesn’t act on it. They just prescribe the pill!! It breaks my heart to think about how different my life could have been if I had been educated in my teens. It’s been a lot of misery… Thankfully I keep learning more all the time. I just started a trial period of mostly carnivore, with some leniency for things like avocados at times. I’m hopeful it will help. I did drink some alcohol over the years (mostly vodka, tequila or whiskey to minimize sugar), and kombucha, there were little ways sugar snuck in.
First time I use the bell notification in years. Keep it up Dr Berry
Can you please make a video on ENDOMETRIOSIS? Thank you so much!
Thank you, Dr. Berry! Helpful information.
Dr.Barry you rock!! Love this new PCOS information
I just bought your book. Dr. Ken... You can't possibly understand the power that you, your wife (and team if you have one) are creating when you post videos meant to help us. We've all gone to a doctor and felt like we werent taken seriously, our time was rushed, we were gas lighted, our claims were dismissed or worse God forbid you have "Anxiety disorder" anywhere on your chart because if they can't fit your symptom with a group of diagnoses, they chalk it up to "Oh its your anxiety, here take a benzodiazepine" which most doctors are getting in trouble for because of the horrors of Benzodiazepines long term usage. You are acting like that doctor we've all been told were out there, who actually cares... This is huge and I'm so happy to know about you. Wishing you and your family nothing but health and wealth big guy. You are my hero and what doctors should be like (No. Disrespect to doctors as a whole I know you are trying to help us and there's many factors at play that limit your abilities to do so"
I love you doc, thank you so much. I would have liked to know this way before. Big hug from Patagonia, Argentina
I had PCOS, very bad PMS and very unstable cycles since I was 18yo. Every OBGYN I visited recommended hormone drugs and my mother was furious, so I never used them. Now, at the age of 36 I'm PCOS free confirmed by my gynecologist. Ultrasound clear for the second year in the row. I'm between keto and carnivore for the last 4 years. The first year of my journey PMS gone and much better period frequency but still not clear ultrasound. The third year was medically confirmed. It takes time but it is reversible. In my case I think the high fat moderate protein worked best.
Dr. Berry.... you are a godsend.
Thank you and please keep talking about this. My daughter is trying to have a child. This is the diet she follows and fully (as I do) believes in for the fullness of nutrition. There are so many truths about the meat-eating keto or carnivore ways to help late-starters to have children and we need all the good instructions you give in your videos.
Hi Lisa, just curious how your daughter is going with her health and fertility?
Thank you for this information. It’s beyond frustrating that not one of my doctors understands PCOS or how to treat it. Coming off of plant based I feel like I’m stuck in a hamster wheel of poor eating and regaining some weight I previously lost. I’ve been apprehensive about starting a ketogenic way of eating, but I just want to feel better.
Just read the comments posted here for inspiration. Then take a leap of faith. If you are human, keto is the way. Best wishes for a healthy future.
Excellent video.
Thank you Dr. for bringing light to our condition!!
Thanks Doc. For all the info and research you tne Best ! God bless you and fam.
My doctor told me that I have PCOS and immediately recommended keto
I was diagnosed with PCOS at 18 years of age. I was told it was so bad I’d never have children, and at 24 I was told my now 31-year-old daughter was a miracle child. Now it’s 57 and almost 3 years Ketogenic. It has saved my life. Now down 75 pounds and 0 PCOS flare ups for the past year and a half and very few menopause symptoms. I’m so happy I found you and Neisha. You have helped me through this journey more than you’ll ever know. THANK YOU.
Love you both, MEAN IT !!!

Doctor Berry you rock!!!
Hello Dr Berry. I enjoy and share your content often. Please don't ever stop. Low Carb has fixed my daughter's PCOS. I do have an unrelated question. Is there a down side to tanning beds? I use to use them when I was younger as a way to jump start a tan for summer and sometimes I maintained a tan through the winter. What's the latest on their use?
Thank you Dr.B
So helpful! Thank you !!!
Thanks Ken
Thanks Doc :)
My whole family’s on keto, we all have some issues from arthritis to PCOS to inflammation, insulinoma, there’s no 🤔downside to doing keto for life and we’ve all lost weight our numbers have never been better too 🤗thanks Dr. Berry ❤️
I’m on Keto ever since I was diagnosed but 2 years later still, I have no periods. I’m on Keto and OMAD still no periods.
thank you Dr Berry
Yes he is right, I had this and was told I would never have children, but went on a diet lost 50lbs kept it off, had two children. I still follow this mostly.
Thanks for the straight scoop Doc!
I think the tide is starting to turn.
Screw Ancel Keys!
No, Keys is alive n well 😡
Thank u so much Dr....
Thanks alot ....for the video on pcos
Thank you for sharing Doc. In India, most of the PCOS women that I know are all on Keto low carb diet. Good Day!
BBB&E (and salmon) works for me - happy Steaksgiving!
I tell ya, Keto helps with so many things I had to start just holding my tongue when talking to a group of people. I have Diabetes, Oh you should do keto! I'm a cancer survivor, Oh you should do keto! I have PCOS, Oh you should do keto! lol So it literally sounds like I'm like I'm trying to PUSH keto on everyone!
Does anyone listen? My relatives think I’m nuts.
This is so relatable to me already reaping the rewards of keto! I tell EVERYONE they should be doing keto. 😆
Haha that's like me but I say eat more meat 🤣
After 7 years of infertility and heartbreak, I conceived after 6 months of Keto.
I honestly have Dr Ken and Neisha Berry to thank for my miracle baby! 2 months old today.
I watch their videos religiously and if I listed all of the ways they’ve impacted my life and health, I’d be here all day. ❤️

Dr Berry is right! I was diagnosed 1.5yrs ago with PCOS and I happened to find the beauty code before I knew I had it and started fasting already. So about 4mo later when diagnosed I already a lot of symptoms subside and my fasted insulin was down to 2.5!! Never took the metformin they gave me.

Hi, Dr Berry!
I know all this now, thanks to you and a few other keto advocates, but man I wish I knew this 20+ years ago. I was struggling so badly with PCOS and ulcerative colitis and stupidly went vegetarian, then vegan. Everything got worse and I also developed chronic anemia. I still don't have my anemia under control.
Tara the Terror, I also had a friend who said she wanted to go vegan for her health. She ended up in the ER getting a blood transfusion due to having developed anemia.
@@Sheryl777 Same. By the time I went to the doctor my hgb was 5.9, I had to have a blood transfusion. That sadly wasn't the only time. I'm getting better but it was so bad for so long my ferritin stores were pretty well depleted.
@@Tara8oh8 💖I'm sorry to hear that you had to go through all of that.
Eating beef or lamb and eggs daily will help but take lactoferrin also. Helps with absorption. At ur level I would also eat citrus when I took my pills too. Organs are high in vitC too!
Give it 3 mos of eating wonderfully, to see if this helps. It takes quite awhile to see a difference.
Excellent.
Thank you! So many women suffer with this myself included!

Fabulous!
It’s a same some people are so blind to the facts even when sharing your videos. I’m glad I’m healthy, too many people wanna just wanna pop pils 🙄
We need doctors to start going this way. Dietitians are still fighting it because,repeat after me….it’s not sustainable…or the other excuse,most people will not do it. I am glad this is coming out, adding to the brick after brick.
I have lots of family that needs to see this.
Thanks for Sharing!
I have suffered from PCOS since puberty, almost 60 years now. I could tell you some sad stories about my struggles with the symptoms and the doctors. But instead I’ll just ask my burning question: Since I am well past menopause but still have some symptoms, what would your advice be for this stage of life? Maybe a video that addresses the needs of us older PCOS sufferers. Thank you, sure wish I’d gotten this advice long ago!
Just try the diet. I doubt his advice will be any different.
Just watch The Magic Pill, a documentary about the keto diet and all of it’s benefits. You’ll want to start tomorrow! In fact, TODAY you can just start eating more fat and fewer carbs. Eliminate all processed food. 😬 My 79yo mom did those things (very low carb) and ended COPD after 30 years of suffering. Big Harma ended up killing her but she was on the right path when she went back to them. 😢 Step-dad is down to almost no insulin eating the same way and he lost 120lbs and can walk again. 😳
@@lauranilsen8988 For some reason, keto doesnt work for me. Honestly I dont like meat very much, I'm not sure it good in the long run to consume a bunch of flesh all the time.
@@charchar7897 keto is different from carnivore. It’s moderate protein. I’ve been doing it off and on for about 8 years and it did help my blood sugar, at least for a while. I’ve been reading a
little more about it recently and it’s effect on your thyroid and other things so I’m trying carbs again along with some other things (watching my mineral intake!). I think I wrecked my thyroid and adrenals (I also stay up too late~sleep 2am to 10). Anyway, I’m not sure I recommend it anymore. Ha!
@@lauranilsen8988 Yeah, I'm not sure it works for everyone. Don't know how you stay up that late, I'm always sleepy. Usually in bed around 8. Been that way my entire life.
Wish I had know this earlier in my life. I have been doing low carb since 2015. My main concern is facial hair, still with me, but at 70 I think it's way to late.
Yup, now the facial hair is just low estrogen mature woman hair…welcome to the club. I don’t have grey hairs, these are wisdom highlights! 😎
Facial hair never goes away once you have it

I’ve suffered with severe PCOS and pre-diabetes symptoms for years now and every doctor I have seen has basically dismissed my concerns. I have been vegetarian for 13 years now and have started to lean more toward veganism for personal reasons. Is there a way to be keto and vegan/vegetarian? My PCOS is the worst it’s ever been and I am struggling daily with my severe symptoms. Thank you in advance for any information you have on this and thank you for the information you have provided in this video - it’s nice to feel “seen” and “heard”.
There's a book called ketotarian by Will Cole that focuses on a plant based keto diet.
I have been struggling with PCOS and lost of smell,I didn't know what to do felt so confused then a friend of mine introduce me to Dr iyaremoses on RUclips channel who helped me get back to normal..
How can people on keto keep up their electrolytes? Any suggestions?
Do you recommend the use of calorie counting apps? If so, which?
Keto has helped my pcos a ton (been on it for 4 years), but for some reason I am losing my hair..(receding hairline, clumps of hair coming out) I'm not sure why if I'm not having any issues with my blood sugars. I am thinking about cutting out diary to see if it helps any.
Dr. Berry. What do you think about testosterone replacement therapy for women with pcos?
In addition, dairy can cause inflammation in certain parts of your body. It depends on the individual.
I agree with no dairy for PCOS, especially if you have acne
After just 2.5 months of Mindy Pelz fast like a girl - I have no symptoms!! I used to get mittleschmerz and horrible periods. No pms symptoms even. It’s been amazing. I don’t do keto but I greatly cut back on carbs and do focus on Whole Foods. It’s been amazing!!
Dr. Berry, a relative of mine gets diarrhea when she eats fatty meats and salad ..goes straight through her like water. She does fine on eggs and broccoli..and something else. She thinks the fibre in the broccoli slows her system down in a good way. Maybe eggs are easier to digest/perfect food? She also has a condition whereby she gets painful lumps under her skin especially on her legs ..cutaneous polyarteritis nodosa (CPAN). Is low carb pretty much out for her?
Keto has helped my Pcos dramatically
Dr. Ken Berry can you talk about endometrial neoplasia cancer
I have been struggling with PCOS and lost of smell,I didn't know what to do felt so confused then a friend of mine introduce me to Dr iyaremoses on RUclips channel who helped me get back to normal..
What is PCOS! Dr. Barry you have to tell people. I don't know what it is! I may be old but I remember when words were more than just a bunch of letters stuck together.
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Thanks so much for this video. I have pcos and I’m diabetic. I recently started keto diet but need to manage it a bit better because my blood sugar has dropped as low as 49 since I’m on medication to lower my blood sugar. Can you do a video possibly discussing how to manage keto with taking medication to lower blood sugar?
Hi, I hope you have found some help. I have been doing keto since April and am diabetic and postmenopausal. I hope you have a doctor that you can contact asap as I suspect you need your medication lowered or tapered off to avoid those low blood sugars, they are not fun or safe. I have been having low levels also this week and hope to be off my pills soon and have been tapering off of them. You and your doctor can come up with a plan for you. At one time in my life I was just under 500lb and on very large doses of Insulin. Over the years prior to keto I got my weight down to 385 and stopped Insulin and was on oral meds. As my weight varies my medication needs have changed up and down. I think my insulin resistance got alot worse in recent years as in the past when I lowered my carbs I no longer needed any medication, but being 66 yr old it has been much slower to improve. Of course thyroid and other issues dont help. I am down to 355 now and seem to not need as much meds. I think too much cheese and nuts has resulted in lower weight loss for me than alot of people report. I have stopped that about 10 days ago, and things are greatly improving. So please talk with your doctor and keep up all your efforts. Good Luck to you!
@@carolingram5948 thanks so much for sharing. My heaviest weight was 338. I’m now down to 290. My goal is honestly to be down another 10 pounds by Christmas but I am giving myself some grace! My blood sugars have been deeply affected by the keto. At my lowest, my sugar was 49, I was borderline to be admitted to the hospital. The doctor finally saw the need to take me from 4 diabetic meds down to 2. I’m feeling much better and I’m steady in the lower 100s (my happy place). I have pcos as well so keto is definitely helping! Great job on your success! Be very proud of yourself for losing a significant amount of weight! Keep up the great work!
I have been struggling with PCOS and lost of smell,I didn't know what to do felt so confused then a friend of mine introduce me to Dr iyaremoses on RUclips channel who helped me get back to normal...
The problem with these diets is that they are almost impossible for the average person to stick to. I am interested in a low carb diet for prophylactic reasons, but find that I have to do so much work around my nutrition that I end up just buying stuff off the supermarket shelf. No doubt if I had a disease that low carb would help with I would spend more time and do it but for the health of the nation this is kind of shutting the stable door after the horse has bolted. More food businesses should be marketing low carb versions of regular foods and develop low carb alternatives to bread etc.

Any guidance on PKU and keto/carnivore? Struggling to find anything for folks restricted to ~40 grams protein per day.
Dr. Berry, do you think low carb can help fibroids?
What about “lean PCOS”? It always seems like the focus is on weight loss for PCOS, but not all those who suffer from PCOS have excess weight to lose.
What about excessive hair growth on the face of a woman who has been shaving for 40 years? That hasn't gone away for us but most cannot afford hair removal. How do we stop this?
@JLT 🫂 🤗 sorry you're there too. It really sucks! I'll be 60 next month and I started removing hair off my upper lip first around 20 and then it just ended up being more and more areas and PCOS and no babies etc. I wasn't overweight either but the drs would tell me to lose weight. Made me angry 😠 by the time I was 30 I was overweight and just got heavier until 2018 when I started keto at the end of that year. I've lost 160ish pounds, I was 306 and now 144. Went through menopause and then Had a hysterectomy in 2017 and my gyn surgeon said I no longer had pcos and the hair would stop growing. NOT! It did slow down on my chest, back and other areas but not my face. People can't tell but that's not the issue. I can feel it and I hate it!
Supposedly they have a medication that helps but it never helped me I don't know if it would now but I plan to ask my dr about it. Also there is a cream that's supposed to thin out the hair and make it softer. I hope you find an answer too. I know a lot of women have this problem.
I have had PCOS for 25 years...after 5 miscarriages and high a1c in the past i wish I would have been keto back when I was 16...keto now and TTC at 41 so hopefully we will have luck and be blessed

Dr. Berry, I was wondering if there are pesticides and insecticides and such in meat that we have to worry about? Can you do a video on this?

Yes, I am indeed sick of IT!! Thanks a lot!! Does lowering carbs to around 50 grams/day help with pcos or do we have to go as low as 20 grams?
I would go 20g for several mos. maybe even 6 mos. depends how sick you are ehfn starting.
I may be the only one on here who did not know what PCOS was. I had to look it up. I'm a 77 year old male. I'm not good with medical acronyms. :-) :-)
Dr. Berry, my doctor recommended IF and keto for my PCOS and insulin resistance but I have read that cutting out complex carbohydrates can cause women to lose their periods. I have healthy ovulatory cycles and I am afraid keto will disrupt my healthy cycles. But I’d certainly like to reduce my insulin levels. Do you think keto is my best hope?

Ever since I started keto my seborreic dermatitis is finally going away!!
I want to connect with u sir lemme know how it is possible? Thanks
Ive been keto/carnivore for 20+ years and I still have pcos and lupus. My endocrinologist recommends this way of eating but it has def NOT helped with my pcos symptoms at all. We all different this I understand. And I will continue to eat this way because it keeps me lean and keeps my A1C in check but my symptoms are still very present.
Perhaps the autoimmune lupus is holding back the recovery. Have you read Dr Steven Phillips book Chronic-The Hidden Cause of the Autoimmune Pandemic and How to get Healthy Again? Excellent book. My sister has chronic Lyme disease.
@@barblacy619 I have not but I will def check it out. Thank you for sharing.
Try going full carnivore. Cut out as many carbs as you can. I have experienced great improvement by eliminating all plants. I will not eat it if it grows in the soil. Bacon, eggs, beef, beef liver and plenty of bacon grease and tallow plus grass fed butter on top. OMAD is the ticket. Try ramping up your diet to the next level.
Dr Berry has a video about the "carbohydrates knob". It may help you.
@@vermeea1 I have thank you for the recommendation.
I have no ideal what PCOS is or stands for.
What about dairy? I hear other dieticians recommending cutting out dairy but I find that hard!
There is a RUclipsr called Rachel Aust who has done Video's on PCOS and a Low Carb Diet and her results are Amazing x
Should/can metformin be taken temporarily to help with losing weight? Why should or shouldn’t it?

Whats the best stuff to eat on the carnivore diet? Also how do you space the melas out during the day?

100% correct
Does this new information regarding a ketogenic diet fir PCOS, also help reverse endometriosis?
Endo is when the lining exits through the fallopian tubes and adheres to wherever it land. Excision is the only fix, or hysterectomy if it's a high stage
It has helped many women have less severe symptoms
I had hysterectomy when I was 29. Never had any children. I had such severe endometriosis, and fibroid's. Had many surgeries, but nothing helped. It got to the point where I was in pain every day, not just monthly...when the pain was so bad, that I would throw up. I wish I knew all of this way back then. I am 53 now.
I was checked out a few videos regarding this topic and the word "Androgens" were mentioned and their connection with insulin. Is that accurate?
