Cortisol has two main roles: 1/ getting energy for brain: stress is a situation where your brain need more energy it is a better definition). But it is controlled by ACTH. ACTH is rather a stress hormone than cortisol. 2/ gaining fat under the skin. Normally, I mean in healthy individual cold triggers (spikes) cortisol independently from ACTH. High cortisol level causes fat gain under skin. And as for getting sugar (glucose) into fat tissues under skin cortisol must temporary cause insulin resistance. The problem is consuming too much fructose depletes B1. We can't break down fructose without B1. And fructose traps cortisol in cells (in fact cholesterol hormones not only cortisol).

as a type 1, i’ve fought with diabulimia back then. but now i’ve been a 3 almost 4 year carnivore.. a lot of ups and downs but totally restored my health and changed my life. still have belly fat though, i still struggle a bit with wearing clothes for my lower body. really want to get rid of it
So...sleep, jump rope, minimize frutose, control insulin...= no belly fat. Doc...please give pratical advice examples on reducing insulin in video conclusion.
Thank you for generously sharing your knowledge and wisdom. With your guidance, along with support from others, I’ve managed to lose around 130 lbs. While I’m not quite where I want to be yet, I’m grateful for how far I’ve come.
That’s why bears consume as much fructose as possible, especially before hibernation . Fructose spikes Uric acid. This causes aggressive fat storage for the winter. It also raises aldosterone which causes sodium retention and thus water retention. The water is stored in the fat. This is not unhealthy for the bears because they only eat berries in season, and go on a long fast.
@@backfru Read the post again. This same thing occurs in humans. And yet they wonder why they are suck fat asses. HBP and a horrible Triglyceride/HDL ratio. I don’t hardly eat up to 50,000 calories a day. I never consume sugar ,especially the evil fructose.
What's the cure for menopause? 22 years of being woken up every 15 to 120 minutes for a hot flash. Huge belly even after doing intermittent fasting for years...but my face is thinner. And two decades of panic caused by an adverse reaction to Ativan, although I was told I was nuts and forced on other meds. Then there's 15 years on Lipitor and it almost crippled me and increased my blood sugar. I increased my fat and got more belly fat. I'm 70. I've been dieting all my life, including bouts of anorexia and bulimia which made me skinny. Now I don't eat and I don't lose weight. I stopped exercising when the pandemic shut everything down. I didn't even lose weight when I gave up alcohol. What's the point in trying anymore? I give up.
Try pre/probiotics daily. Also, 3 months of MOUNJARO lost 15 pounds, which is all your liver needs to detoxify, to help you lose more weight and reverse fatty liver. Lemon, honey, peppermint, green tea works wonders, just 3 times a week will help you. Try again, DO NOT GIVE UP.
This video totally makes sense. I'm off Prednisone for 3 months now and I'm in terrible hormone imbalance because of it. Prednisone messes up adrenal gland so cortisol is messed up too...before I took it (only for 9 days) I was thin, athletic, a healthy dancer and now I look horrible!!! No matter what I did -still gained weight and lost my period and now, almost 8 kg more, I'm beginning to lose hope that I will ever look like my old self again. 😢
Dr. Boz. I really need help with this. I have had eight surgeries on my foot. I am currently on a carnivore diet. My glucose is not being fueled by my diet, but by the stress the surgeries have had on my body. The first surgery was to stabilize my foot. The ligament on the inside of my foot had severed and my foot had collapsed inward. The surgeon put three screws in the foot and two in the ankle. But after a few months of starting to walk, I was still throwing my foot. An x-ray showed I had blown my deltoid. The second surgery was to repair the two ligaments. But that became infected. I had five more surgeries while they were trying to arrest the infection. The eighth surgery was to remove the hardware, as the infection had settled in the adhesions of the ligaments and the anchors for the screws. Since then, I have not been able to walk. I have been dealing with constant pain. The surgeon told me to reduce my A1c in order to do another surgery. It was 6.8. That's when I went on the carnivore diet. In six months I reduced it to 5.7. I wear a CGM to keep an eye on what foods are affecting my glucose. Now the surgeon says he doesn't want to do another surgery. I'm frustrated. My diet is very manageable, but the pain causes stress. All the success I have obtained before all this beginning is being eaten away with the stress. I am on metformin and glimepiride, just because of the effect the pain has on my glucose production. I am a loss what to do.
So tired to trying to lose the last 30 pounds ! I did keto , I did carnivore , I did intermittent fasting, I did omnivore diet , whole 30 , every diet ! I cannot live only eating meat and nearly zero carb vegetables and only berries ! I feel Exhausted when I do that and yes I’m getting fat in my diet ! I did high fat / high protein …. Protein sparing modified fast I’ve done it all ! Nothing works and the longer I fast the higher my A-1C goes and I get bad insomnia which only makes things worse ! Stress from just trying to lose body fat is an issue ! I’ve been lifting weights and not doing cardio so I don’t spike cirtisol and if I don’t sleep or have carbs I can’t workout effectively at all ! These videos are so damn confusing as every online doctor has a different opinion and are sponsored or selling some product which imho is the same as regular allopathic doctors shilling for drug companies! I’m just praying and believing God will get me through it all and I’ll come out on the other side healthier and 30 ish pounds less with lean strong muscles
Sorry to hear that. If the diet(s) isn't providing you the energy you need daily, then it might not be for you. Consider engaging a nutritionist than looking for advice online as no one-size-fits-all approach works. Everybody's body and health can vary widely.
Hi. I'm doing carnivore, the lion diet. Could I ask for how long you tried each diet? If you get tired on high fat you might not be able to absorb it well enough. Your liver makes bile, your gallbladder stores it. When fat needs to get broken down for absorption your gallbladder spray the correct area with bile. For some people the bile get too thick and it affects the "spraying" in a bad way not covering the entire area of fat.
I have studied nutrition for 30 years and after a lot of information it seems that “whole food, plant based” is the most scientifically and anecdotal successful way of eating. More veggies, fruit, herbs, multigrain, beans, 24 hour yogurt, plant fats, will get you more fiber. Most people have twice the protein and half the fiber they need. My daughter’s ulcerative colitis and husband’s heart disease are controlled without medication. She rarely has flares and he hasn’t had angina pain for years (after heart attack/stents).
@@colleenhammer2651 that might be correct for most people, I am not arguing that. When I went down your route my autoimmune problems never got better. Only when I took a chance on going full carnivore did I get my health back to a level where life felt worth living, instead of just enduring.
Keto is great for feeling satiety and weight loss you start with high fat once in ketosis start lowering it so that your body will start eat its own fat
i really want try keto but here are the 4 reason why i fail 1 find support 2 find a practioner (doctor) who understand what keto is (burning fat instead of sugar) 3 change you're mindset that keto is not a diet but a lifestyle 4 get a plan and stick to it
2x25 and now 2x30 100 yard sprints a day put me under my 12th grade weight. That's around 10,000 steps a day walking and 3,500 strides. Not for everyone, but male age 69 retired, works for me. Around 3 hours total. Something to do. 5,200 done. 4,800 more to go by around Nov. 1st. Sucks and boring as hell. Don't even wear headset.
Hi, I understand the 100 yard part, but what exactly do you mean by 2x25 (2x30). Do you mean that you sprint 100 yards, make a small break, then dash again and repeat it 25(30) times during the day? I'd be grateful if you could specify because the number of steps and strides is rather wonky together and then I got even more confused because first you said that you have 10 000 steps a day but then mention that you'll finish around Nov 1st
@@lushkam12x25 is twice a day. I was only doing 25 a day in March and April , then on May 2, I went to two a days. Was at 1,100 then. Went to 30 in morning and 30 in evening in July. August, I went to 35 each. Currently at 8,330 as I now work part time so it’s one session a day. 70 strides each sprint and 130 steps back to starting line so the heart rests. When I get to 10,000 , that will be 568 miles each way, 700,000 strides and 1.3 million steps , not including walking to park, warm ups and walking home. On 1/1/25 I plan to jump rope 2,740 a day and see if I can do a million skips next year. I did 200,000 4 years ago in 51 weeks but could only jump 3 days a week due to work. Will see how it goes. That 568 miles is Minneapolis to Fort Wayne. High school speed is long gone since I’m nearing 70. Exercise sucks but never fails! lol There is nothing right or wrong the way I do my routine, you may have better ideas. If you do sprints, keep me posted. Starting out, I think I could do 6 and increased from there. Most ever in one session was 42. Most in one day was 30 in morning, 30 in afternoon then 40 at night. That’s my personal record. Took 5 hours. Ask any thing. Thanks.
@ 2x25 is twice a day. 25 in morn 25 at nite. Then I went 2x30 then 2x35. I sprint east and walk 130 steps back to starting line. Years ago I started at 6 and worked myself up. If you do sprints, let me know how it goes. I’m at 8,330 for the season with 1,670 left. High school doors long gone but I try at age 69. Thinking of a million skips ( jump rope) in 2025. Need to average 2,740 a day. I can do that.
Where is the video that specifically how to lose belly fat? At the end of the video, you say you'll see us on the video. Where is the video, and what is the name of this video?
question,,,i ate at 6:20pm (veggies and 2 eggs) before eating glucose was 89...two hours later (8:20pm) it was 88..is that normal...it usually goes up a bit....crazy huh?
@drboz When I did figure competing, I was eating low fat, and high protein with carbs and melted fat away on low calorie+weight training+cardio. Obviously, the low cal wasn’t sustainable, but low carb is for me. Just now having issues losing the weight from years of having 4kids.
Dr. B, cutest woman on RUclips, I cannot drink coffee without some form of sweetener. I use a little blackstrap molasses and some half & half in my two large cups of coffee each day. I've cut out most of the other obvious forms of sugar-related foods. But is total denial of anything like this necessary? My A1C is a respectable 5.5 (I would like it lower). Does cutting out things like molasses with my morning coffee impact anything on the margin? Love your videos. Very pertinent content.
Sugar and fat combined, like ice scream is the way i gain weight fast. Dont eat in evening and night when you sleep at nighttimes. It takes over 8 weeks to lose fat from chips etc.
I’m helping my daughter that just had baby 2 (c-section) & a toddler. I’m wearing my cgm & I’m shocked at why my glucose is when I’m not even eating, I forgot how stressful dealing w a toddler is & since we don’t live nearby & FaceTime a couple of times a week, he knows the other grandparents better
@DoctorBoz Would you do a class on how to read blood work, optimal numbers and ranges in pple going through Keto transition to Fat Adapted lifestyle. Thanks.
lol, no reply huhhh, guess not that good of a real Dr. in my opinion, everyone treads around hypothyroidism like a hot pancake, because they know nothing about it.
💯🎯 I do 30-minutes of weighted jump rope training 6X weekly right after resistance training. It definitely keeps cortisol in check, along with metabolism, blood pressure, etc. 💯
One question that comes to mind: if cortisol is highest after waking up in the morning is it best to wait until later in the day for such intentional, artificial spikes or is it just as beneficial to do so right after waking?
this is a good question. some might suggest that doing something that spikes cortisol in the morning would be OK, because that leaves a longer period of the day where it isn't spiked at all.
Hey Dr Boz Do you know anyone that has tested the olive oil in our “Seasons” brand sardines ? I hear that olive oil is replaced often with seed oil because of cost And because corporations are inherently evil Anyho. Just wondering
I’ve heard this too, but not just in cans of sardines. Abut in actual bottles of oil that’s labeled olive oil is actually not olive oil. There’s like a whole “olive oil mafia” out there, selling us garbage and telling us it’s olive oil.
The secret to losing weight is cooking in bulk!!! Everyone knows about all the different diets but when it comes to following it, everyone fail because cooking two to three meals a day is lots of work and preparation! In today’s world, you can’t cook three meals a day for a family! So cook once or twice a week , cook simple food in bulk ! Cook protein in bulk once a week, make salads once a day ! Very simple! All these diet programs send you three recipes for a day, who has time to cook and prepare three different meals a day? 😂👍🏻😋🥗🥚
@@DaisyJane1234 fasting is the best way, I have been fasting 18 hr a day for last 6 years, the problem is most people give up because they don’t know what to eat and get frustrated because of limited food choices and meal preparation! Cooking in bulk and having food in your fridge ready to eat, makes the transition much easier! Not thinking about what to eat every meal! During the week every meal takes me 5 minutes to prepare and I always have a few choices!
@@ianstuart5660 6 years fasting 18 hr a day , BMI 20! If body hasn’t adopted to burning fat , it Will be difficult to fast on carb diet! To adopt to fat burning, you need a plan, simple whole food, cook in bulk always have food ready in fridge , get used to eating leftovers 😂, eat for energy not for pleasure! Salad, protein, olive oil! Start three meals a day, then to two meals a day! Make boiled eggs your snack! 👍🏻🥗🥚
Does Dr. Boz have a short video that talks about her expe rience with removing insulin resistance (IR) ? I heard her mention that she doesn't have IR anymore. I'd love to know how long it took her/when it happened.
I am type 2. I got my first CGM (Libre 3) about 6 weeks ago. It always reads 30-50 points or even more, lower than finger prick. How can I monitor if these numbers are so far off. I'm on my 3rd sensor... all the same 30-50+ point lower?
All that glucose that the body converts to fructose is so that the liver can convert that to FAT. First contributing to fatty liver disease, then to more belly fat ]

Adding fructose to your diet is bad but fruits have high nutrient density and medium or low caloric density. Swapping high energy density foods for fruits is one easy way to lose weight.
Years of high cortisol and mine tanked. But, those stressfully high cortisol years did create belly fat. I've never heard of someone that doesn't make it at all. Or did stress tank yours too?
Great video and explanation based of logic. This lady is very convincing. Actually she is so convincing and border coercive that I feel my cortisol rising just by watching.

as a type 1, i’ve fought with diabulimia back then. but now i’ve been a 3 almost 4 year carnivore.. a lot of ups and downs but totally restored my health and changed my life. still have belly fat though, i still struggle a bit with wearing clothes for my lower body. really want to get rid of it
So...sleep, jump rope, minimize frutose, control insulin...= no belly fat.
Doc...please give pratical advice examples on reducing insulin in video conclusion.
Thank you for generously sharing your knowledge and wisdom. With your guidance, along with support from others, I’ve managed to lose around 130 lbs. While I’m not quite where I want to be yet, I’m grateful for how far I’ve come.
Holy smokes. This audio is phenomenal 👏👏
We upgraded a few things
Thank you! 😂
Thank you again!
Thank you, thank you!!!❤
Thank you ❤
That’s why bears consume as much fructose as possible, especially before hibernation . Fructose spikes Uric acid. This causes aggressive fat storage for the winter. It also raises aldosterone which causes sodium retention and thus water retention. The water is stored in the fat. This is not unhealthy for the bears because they only eat berries in season, and go on a long fast.
Exactly.
I dont eat any sugar or fruit , and on keto for 3yr, uric acid is still 7.9 , stuggling with this
@@Lam-he6mj Smart bears! God designed all creatures perfectly.
Do your base your diet practices on bears?
@@backfru Read the post again. This same thing occurs in humans. And yet they wonder why they are suck fat asses. HBP and a horrible Triglyceride/HDL ratio. I don’t hardly eat up to 50,000 calories a day. I never consume sugar ,especially the evil fructose.
What's the cure for menopause? 22 years of being woken up every 15 to 120 minutes for a hot flash. Huge belly even after doing intermittent fasting for years...but my face is thinner. And two decades of panic caused by an adverse reaction to Ativan, although I was told I was nuts and forced on other meds. Then there's 15 years on Lipitor and it almost crippled me and increased my blood sugar. I increased my fat and got more belly fat. I'm 70. I've been dieting all my life, including bouts of anorexia and bulimia which made me skinny. Now I don't eat and I don't lose weight. I stopped exercising when the pandemic shut everything down. I didn't even lose weight when I gave up alcohol. What's the point in trying anymore?
I give up.
Hormone replacement therapy? Carnivore diet?
Try pre/probiotics daily. Also, 3 months of MOUNJARO lost 15 pounds, which is all your liver needs to detoxify, to help you lose more weight and reverse fatty liver. Lemon, honey, peppermint, green tea works wonders, just 3 times a week will help you. Try again, DO NOT GIVE UP.
This video totally makes sense. I'm off Prednisone for 3 months now and I'm in terrible hormone imbalance because of it. Prednisone messes up adrenal gland so cortisol is messed up too...before I took it (only for 9 days) I was thin, athletic, a healthy dancer and now I look horrible!!! No matter what I did -still gained weight and lost my period and now, almost 8 kg more, I'm beginning to lose hope that I will ever look like my old self again. 😢
I just subscribed. Dr. Boz's information is not only valuable to guiding me in my dietary journey, she's also so-o pretty.
Always great Dr Boz!
Dr. Boz. I really need help with this. I have had eight surgeries on my foot. I am currently on a carnivore diet. My glucose is not being fueled by my diet, but by the stress the surgeries have had on my body. The first surgery was to stabilize my foot. The ligament on the inside of my foot had severed and my foot had collapsed inward. The surgeon put three screws in the foot and two in the ankle. But after a few months of starting to walk, I was still throwing my foot. An x-ray showed I had blown my deltoid. The second surgery was to repair the two ligaments. But that became infected. I had five more surgeries while they were trying to arrest the infection. The eighth surgery was to remove the hardware, as the infection had settled in the adhesions of the ligaments and the anchors for the screws. Since then, I have not been able to walk. I have been dealing with constant pain. The surgeon told me to reduce my A1c in order to do another surgery. It was 6.8. That's when I went on the carnivore diet. In six months I reduced it to 5.7. I wear a CGM to keep an eye on what foods are affecting my glucose. Now the surgeon says he doesn't want to do another surgery. I'm frustrated. My diet is very manageable, but the pain causes stress. All the success I have obtained before all this beginning is being eaten away with the stress. I am on metformin and glimepiride, just because of the effect the pain has on my glucose production. I am a loss what to do.
no sweetened anything!!!
just water
Great video Doc 👍
Ma'am you are looking more fresh and young compared to what you looked in earlier ones 😊. Keep it up you are leading by way of an example 👍
So tired to trying to lose the last 30 pounds ! I did keto , I did carnivore , I did intermittent fasting, I did omnivore diet , whole 30 , every diet ! I cannot live only eating meat and nearly zero carb vegetables and only berries ! I feel Exhausted when I do that and yes I’m getting fat in my diet ! I did high fat / high protein …. Protein sparing modified fast I’ve done it all ! Nothing works and the longer I fast the higher my A-1C goes and I get bad insomnia which only makes things worse ! Stress from just trying to lose body fat is an issue ! I’ve been lifting weights and not doing cardio so I don’t spike cirtisol and if I don’t sleep or have carbs I can’t workout effectively at all ! These videos are so damn confusing as every online doctor has a different opinion and are sponsored or selling some product which imho is the same as regular allopathic doctors shilling for drug companies! I’m just praying and believing God will get me through it all and I’ll come out on the other side healthier and 30 ish pounds less with lean strong muscles
Sorry to hear that. If the diet(s) isn't providing you the energy you need daily, then it might not be for you. Consider engaging a nutritionist than looking for advice online as no one-size-fits-all approach works. Everybody's body and health can vary widely.
Hi. I'm doing carnivore, the lion diet. Could I ask for how long you tried each diet? If you get tired on high fat you might not be able to absorb it well enough. Your liver makes bile, your gallbladder stores it. When fat needs to get broken down for absorption your gallbladder spray the correct area with bile. For some people the bile get too thick and it affects the "spraying" in a bad way not covering the entire area of fat.
I have studied nutrition for 30 years and after a lot of information it seems that “whole food, plant based” is the most scientifically and anecdotal successful way of eating. More veggies, fruit, herbs, multigrain, beans, 24 hour yogurt, plant fats, will get you more fiber. Most people have twice the protein and half the fiber they need. My daughter’s ulcerative colitis and husband’s heart disease are controlled without medication. She rarely has flares and he hasn’t had angina pain for years (after heart attack/stents).
@@colleenhammer2651 that might be correct for most people, I am not arguing that. When I went down your route my autoimmune problems never got better. Only when I took a chance on going full carnivore did I get my health back to a level where life felt worth living, instead of just enduring.
Keto is great for feeling satiety and weight loss you start with high fat once in ketosis start lowering it so that your body will start eat its own fat
Good content and well prepared. Thank you.
i really want try keto but here are the 4 reason why i fail
1 find support
2 find a practioner (doctor) who understand what keto is (burning fat instead of sugar)
3 change you're mindset that keto is not a diet but a lifestyle
4 get a plan and stick to it
Check Dr Ken Berry's channel. IIRC, he talked about a website where you can finds lists of keto or carnivore friendly doctors.
Or .. join our 🔴live class. We offer it twice a year: 21-Day-Metabolic Kick. Led by me. At the end you keep the support groups we set you up in.

@@geangray1534 how exactly do we find this?
2x25 and now 2x30 100 yard sprints a day put me under my 12th grade weight. That's around 10,000 steps a day walking and 3,500 strides. Not for everyone, but male age 69 retired, works for me. Around 3 hours total. Something to do. 5,200 done. 4,800 more to go by around Nov. 1st. Sucks and boring as hell. Don't even wear headset.
Hi, I understand the 100 yard part, but what exactly do you mean by 2x25 (2x30). Do you mean that you sprint 100 yards, make a small break, then dash again and repeat it 25(30) times during the day? I'd be grateful if you could specify because the number of steps and strides is rather wonky together and then I got even more confused because first you said that you have 10 000 steps a day but then mention that you'll finish around Nov 1st
@@lushkam12x25 is twice a day. I was only doing 25 a day in March and April , then on May 2, I went to two a days. Was at 1,100 then. Went to 30 in morning and 30 in evening in July. August, I went to 35 each. Currently at 8,330 as I now work part time so it’s one session a day. 70 strides each sprint and 130 steps back to starting line so the heart rests. When I get to 10,000 , that will be 568 miles each way, 700,000 strides and 1.3 million steps , not including walking to park, warm ups and walking home. On 1/1/25 I plan to jump rope 2,740 a day and see if I can do a million skips next year. I did 200,000 4 years ago in 51 weeks but could only jump 3 days a week due to work. Will see how it goes.
That 568 miles is Minneapolis to Fort Wayne. High school speed is long gone since I’m nearing 70. Exercise sucks but never fails! lol There is nothing right or wrong the way I do my routine, you may have better ideas. If you do sprints, keep me posted. Starting out, I think I could do 6 and increased from there. Most ever in one session was 42. Most in one day was 30 in morning, 30 in afternoon then 40 at night. That’s my personal record. Took 5 hours. Ask any thing. Thanks.
@ 2x25 is twice a day. 25 in morn 25 at nite. Then I went 2x30 then 2x35. I sprint east and walk 130 steps back to starting line. Years ago I started at 6 and worked myself up. If you do sprints, let me know how it goes. I’m at 8,330 for the season with 1,670 left. High school doors long gone but I try at age 69. Thinking of a million skips ( jump rope) in 2025. Need to average 2,740 a day. I can do that.
thanks awfully, that's a huge help
Where is the video that specifically how to lose belly fat? At the end of the video, you say you'll see us on the video. Where is the video, and what is the name of this video?
Klick on the thumbnail in the video. It describes how to regulate your insulin.
I eat an apple in the evening every night before going to bed -is that a big mistake?
This is very helpful thank you
Now following your channel. Great info.
question,,,i ate at 6:20pm (veggies and 2 eggs) before eating glucose was 89...two hours later (8:20pm) it was 88..is that normal...it usually goes up a bit....crazy huh?
Thank you Dr Boz ❤
So what are the 3 easy tricks??
Stop your fructose and glucose intake, sleep regularly, use morning and evening light to regulate your hormones/cortisol.
@@lilaschwarz1236..thanks mate! I was just about to write the same.🍀
In addition, 1 min of jump rope per day. Stress yourself each day with a good sweat.
Dr Boz you are looking great and sharp thank you from 🇿🇦
@drboz When I did figure competing, I was eating low fat, and high protein with carbs and melted fat away on low calorie+weight training+cardio. Obviously, the low cal wasn’t sustainable, but low carb is for me. Just now having issues losing the weight from years of having 4kids.
Dr. B, cutest woman on RUclips, I cannot drink coffee without some form of sweetener. I use a little blackstrap molasses and some half & half in my two large cups of coffee each day. I've cut out most of the other obvious forms of sugar-related foods. But is total denial of anything like this necessary? My A1C is a respectable 5.5 (I would like it lower). Does cutting out things like molasses with my morning coffee impact anything on the margin? Love your videos. Very pertinent content.
Well, confusion= insulin resistance and type II diabetes. Confirmed type IIers should do what? I am injecting insulin. What should we do?
Does coconut contain fructose or sugar
Sugar and fat combined, like ice scream is the way i gain weight fast.
Dont eat in evening and night when you sleep at nighttimes. It takes over 8 weeks to lose fat from chips etc.
I’m helping my daughter that just had baby 2 (c-section) & a toddler. I’m wearing my cgm & I’m shocked at why my glucose is when I’m not even eating, I forgot how stressful dealing w a toddler is & since we don’t live nearby & FaceTime a couple of times a week, he knows the other grandparents better
@DoctorBoz Would you do a class on how to read blood work, optimal numbers and ranges in pple going through Keto transition to Fat Adapted lifestyle. Thanks.
What about people with hypothyroidism ?, it can be very hard to lose belly fat and keep it off ,
lol, no reply huhhh, guess not that good of a real Dr. in my opinion, everyone treads around hypothyroidism like a hot pancake, because they know nothing about it.
@@amaliacoria3063 yeah, agree, I’ve done a lot research myself on it, thanks for replying anyway …

💯🎯 I do 30-minutes of weighted jump rope training 6X weekly right after resistance training. It definitely keeps cortisol in check, along with metabolism, blood pressure, etc. 💯
You are stunning 😍 thank you for the information
Have a sustained calories deficit while eating healthy food. 100% successful.
Yes
One question that comes to mind: if cortisol is highest after waking up in the morning is it best to wait until later in the day for such intentional, artificial spikes or is it just as beneficial to do so right after waking?
this is a good question.
some might suggest that doing something that spikes cortisol in the morning would be OK, because that leaves a longer period of the day where it isn't spiked at all.
Does this mean fruits are bad?
What about wine ? Is that the same sugar ? Does alcohol stress out body and make more cortisol ?
Hey Dr Boz
Do you know anyone that has tested the olive oil in our “Seasons” brand sardines ?
I hear that olive oil is replaced often with seed oil because of cost
And because corporations are inherently evil
Anyho. Just wondering
I’ve heard this too, but not just in cans of sardines. Abut in actual bottles of oil that’s labeled olive oil is actually not olive oil. There’s like a whole “olive oil mafia” out there, selling us garbage and telling us it’s olive oil.
THANK YOU!!!
can i shut off my pancreas for a couple weeks so i can lose weight?
there's several small studies on spot reduction released in the past years that suggest you can specifically target certain areas with excercise.
Subcutaneous Fat (Belly Fat) vs Visceral fat (organs fat).
Do you have any advice for night shifters?
Watching this at 11 pm
No fructose? So no eating fruit then?
Any specifics for men?
❤ thank you.
The secret to losing weight is cooking in bulk!!! Everyone knows about all the different diets but when it comes to following it, everyone fail because cooking two to three meals a day is lots of work and preparation! In today’s world, you can’t cook three meals a day for a family! So cook once or twice a week , cook simple food in bulk ! Cook protein in bulk once a week, make salads once a day ! Very simple! All these diet programs send you three recipes for a day, who has time to cook and prepare three different meals a day? 😂👍🏻😋🥗🥚
Fasting is better. 1 to 2 meals a day is great. That cuts down a lot of meal prep.
@@DaisyJane1234 fasting is the best way, I have been fasting 18 hr a day for last 6 years, the problem is most people give up because they don’t know what to eat and get frustrated because of limited food choices and meal preparation! Cooking in bulk and having food in your fridge ready to eat, makes the transition much easier! Not thinking about what to eat every meal! During the week every meal takes me 5 minutes to prepare and I always have a few choices!
Very good points. Add fasting to that regime to further simplify!
@@ianstuart5660 6 years fasting 18 hr a day , BMI 20! If body hasn’t adopted to burning fat , it Will be difficult to fast on carb diet! To adopt to fat burning, you need a plan, simple whole food, cook in bulk always have food ready in fridge , get used to eating leftovers 😂, eat for energy not for pleasure! Salad, protein, olive oil! Start three meals a day, then to two meals a day! Make boiled eggs your snack! 👍🏻🥗🥚
Right, I also try to cook once a day in bulk
Doctor thank you so much ❤
I thought belly-fat and viszeralfat are two different things ?
I believe you are correct
This was good. Enjoyed it.
I do wish you had been more clear that eating whole fruits is not an issue for most people.
Fruits are full of fructose. Sugar is stored as fat, especially viseral fat
How is sugar stored as fat?

My cortisol seems to rise after I try to go to sleep? Please advise why?
Does Dr. Boz have a short video that talks about her expe rience with removing insulin resistance (IR) ? I heard her mention that she doesn't have IR anymore. I'd love to know how long it took her/when it happened.
Removing? It doesn't work that way. Get on Keto.
@@BainsPummy well, I'm not good at remembering the exact words that people have said. But Dr. Boz said something that meant this.
@@godloveskaren Hi, Yeah once you will get on Keto, your body will start correcting itself and IR will go away.
I am type 2. I got my first CGM (Libre 3) about 6 weeks ago. It always reads 30-50 points or even more, lower than finger prick. How can I monitor if these numbers are so far off. I'm on my 3rd sensor... all the same 30-50+ point lower?
The cortisol study- does it answer the question whether the increased cortisol is from the fat or the cause of the fat?
Fat doesn’t exude cortisol.
I've always heard that Where you store fat is largely genetic, so I don't think cortisol tells our bodies so much "where" as "how much".
All that glucose that the body converts to fructose is so that the liver can convert that to FAT. First contributing to fatty liver disease, then to more belly fat

Excellent 😊
Visceral fat is not the same as belly fat! That soft flab just under your skin is not visceral fat.
So...alcohol is a no-no.
Were you on Battlestar Galactica?
Hello dr boz love your videos we know that too much sugary fat belly thank you for this video ❤ xx
Sooooo hard exercise to raise cortisol is ok?
I heard "belly fat also known as visceral fat" and stopped the video.
Why?
I did it exactly that .. but it just said , might your business tubby.
God put one thing on the planet humans can eat. Sardines. What a future.
I never eat sweets. I regularly participate in yardwork which causes sweating. None of that works for me.
Off to the insulin resistance video I guess.
there is def a genetic factor to cortisol and being more apple shaped.
@@mettejensen8653 I'm starting to learn more about how you are correct. I amshaped like both of my grandfathers, short and heavy in the stomach. My brother is shaped like our great grandfather, tall and thin.
Thanks for the input.

There is no such thing as spot reduction
Adding fructose to your diet is bad but fruits have high nutrient density and medium or low caloric density.
Swapping high energy density foods for fruits is one easy way to lose weight.
I need your.BHB capsules
They clogged the machine … my choices were to dilute the ingredient- or stop making them .
It sucked - but I had to stop
They really helped me in loosing weight.
When you can't make cortisol and almost died, you get sick of cortisol being demonized so much. You can have belly fat without blaming cortisol.
Years of high cortisol and mine tanked. But, those stressfully high cortisol years did create belly fat. I've never heard of someone that doesn't make it at all. Or did stress tank yours too?
Great video and explanation based of logic. This lady is very convincing. Actually she is so convincing and border coercive that I feel my cortisol rising just by watching. Just imagine her in the morning telling you to get out of bed and behave like she wants. I am grateful for sound advice, but stress relief is a different video.
You make me laugh
