Here is something the video didn't tell you.. Battled fatigue my entire life. Even though I am near peak fitness, sleep regularly, limit screen time, watch my diet, and don't do drugs. Not even alcohol. Felt like I needed a nap throughout the day my entire life...Now I sleep 4-6 hrs and run like a machine. It took me 38 years to figure it out..take it or leave it. 1. Walk barefoot. Studies prove it. You are fatigued because you lack ENERGY. We are electric beings and the earth has a grounded charge. We evolved this way. It is vital we connect. To every cell in your body. Minimum 15 minutes a day, but longer the better. Sand, dirt, rock, cement are best. No asphalt, not sure about grass. More conductivity when wet. The effects are immediate but you likely won't "feel" it until the following morning. Keep at it a few days and you'll never turn back. Energy like a kid again. No shit. 2. Sun. Even better while grounded. Get some color. 3. Never eat past 6 pm. Very lightly if you must. 4. Meditate daily. Find the time. Everything about you improves with a relaxed mind. 5. Breathework before bed. 5 minutes is enough. I do 3 rounds of "breathe of fire" 6. Remove sugar almost completely from your diet. Sugar is a drug and you are likely a junkie. It won't be easy. After you push through withdrawal (yes) which may take 2 weeks to a month the "false"energy you received from sugar will be replaced by "golden" energy. Like when you were a kid. You won't want to go back. Although, cravings will still rear up..have fruit ready. 7. Limit EMF exposure. Grounding combats this very effectively. NEVER sleep with a cell in your room. Absolutely no Bluetooth headphones. Less time around electronics the better. Get outside. 8. Fasting. Late breakfast early supper. Most yogis eat once a day and live to 100 with high energy. Every so often mix in a legit fast. I like 24- 36 hours. Past that I lose muscle but everyone is different. I hope someone reads this and it helps them
Real good advice you just gave. I like to do grounding in my garden on stone flags while getting some sunshine at the same time in summertime makes you feel energised, I also fast 12-14hrs every night which really keeps the body fat down and the energy up, I've never tried a longer fast than that but I am considering it. Also I don't eat anything that is made by man, if you eat like this you won't get low energy.
@@JudithSantana-p9l I've experimented with many different diets. The specifics of what you eat is largely overrated and likely varies person to person. Listen to your body. Study how you feel. Most important by far is how much you eat and when. Never go to bed full.. stop constantly sipping water..too much comfort zone will kill you, you didn't evolve that way. Eat less, eat simpler, and mix in serious fasting every so often. It's like a reset for your entire system. Brain, gut, energy, immunity.. Practically no sugar. Not even honey. That's the tough one. Also bone broth now and then. Your local butcher will have the bones. Just boil them for 48 hours and add a little beef base for flavor. Get some jars and freeze it for later it won't hurt it. Kobe Bryant said it was the #1 diet secret for his ability to heal and maintain his body. Also something that makes sense from a paleo evolution sense...good luck
I have been diagnosed with bipolar 1,ADHD,CPTSD,& epilepsy(3 types of seizures).Last year I completely changed how I eat-no sugar or processed foods at all,lots of veggies,some fruit,eggs,and limited fish and dairy.I've never felt better,I'm off almost all the medications I use to on(I'm down to 3 now),I'm seizure free,stress free,and do 3 hours of exercise a day!
@@francesbale1409 I hope you don't mind my input. I have CPTSD also and severe insomnia among other things. About five years ago I was put on psych meds (tried several- dont even want to get into it) and all had negative side effects. I went to a holistic dr who put me on lithium (natural) and got me off all prescription psych meds , the last one being Effexir. I've been doing a lot better on it than on anything. Just something to think about. To look into. I know everyone is different. My best to you ! Be good to yourself!
I know you can do it!I used to be 900mg of seroquel a day and now I'm down to 100mg.I've found yoga,long walks in nature,meditation,journaling,fousing on my creative projects,limiting my screen time,and not watching the news were all very helpful. However the biggest shift occured when I to began develope true compassion not only for myself and others.All the best!
I spent years in an abusive relationship. I was always exhausted. Recently I met a man who was a little over a year a widow from a years long unfulfilling relationship. Neither one of us slept more than four hours a night. We were up and down, read, watched tv, whatever. When we got together and got to the point of having sleep overs, his house, my house, we noticed that our sleep became much deeper and we slept longer. Finally, he said, just always sleep at my house. That was almost three months ago and now we are both sleeping a full, constant 8 hours of deep sleep every night. We are both calmer, happier, quicker to laugh. I can see it in his face, he looks less stressed, younger. He tells me I look beautiful when I’m happy. We are 57 years old.
Feeling exhaustion even if u have slept means that the mind is not rested. There are lot of issues that constantly bothering your mind. U need to start looking at things that are affecting your daily life and causing issues, take those out. Clear the clutter, clear the mind.
wait this is actually so fckn true... few days ago i made myself fantastic dinner and i decided to just sit, play some good music and turn off internet and stop texting people. I felt so relaxed
And we also learned intermittent fasting. My son,, from being a huge, unhealthy 6 footer, made a big change due to one-meal-a-day 5 days until the weekend, then 2 meals on the weekend, is now a skinny 187cm, and I am a 2 meal-a-day person, who's never hungry and only have a small breakfast because I get a bit of nausea before I eat. I finish by 1 or 2pm. I feel great, have no doctor. take no pharmaceuticals, am 82 yrs old.
@truthsout Whoa...just changing to one meal a day made that much of a difference? I should give that a try. Now does he make it one BIG meal or just a normal meal ,once a day?
In my 40s I started to figure my body out. I've been naturally doing what is taught here. I just do push ups in the evenings. And follow this guide to a degree. I dropped about 40 lbs and am slowly building muscles just from the push ups. I'm getting better results now than when I was 20 and lived at the gym. My 2 bits.
If you do nothing but push ups, you will eventually have hunched shoulders, and back problems. You should do at least three times as much work on your back as your chest. Same goes for triceps to biceps, and most importantly legs, never miss leg day, your legs are your second heart.
@@TheJesseJman I would suggest that if you develop your chest with proper form, and don't work your back, you will be out of balance. There is nothing wrong with push-ups
What makes you tired is doing something stressful every day-something you don’t want to do: Facing an overbearing boss at work or a difficult family member or an avalanche of rude customers. Even if you compartmentalize it and deal with it well at the time, later on your body and mind will scream, “Please don’t make me do this” on a daily basis. Then when it’s over, your mind pleads, “Let me rest now.” Persistent stress, however well managed at the time, has a cumulative effect. Eventually you are in a constant state of unwillingness, which manifests as, “Go away world; I’m tired.” What you eat, whether you exercise, how much you sleep: These things are actually secondary causes of feeling tired all the time. The root of it all, the primary factor, is mental and emotional, not physical.
I disagree with what you said at the end. What you eat, how much you sleep and exercise will strongly impact the stress you experience and how you physically respond to stress. Don’t for a second think it can be brushed off as secondary. Having a strong, recovered, well rested body prepares you significantly for the endurance of daily stress which should be expected as a person with responsibilities. It is a cycle. Control the factors that you can control. Eat healthy, exercise, and get your sleep. These are within your control more so than other external stressors and will make a big difference.
Love the message that was given here! Ever since the Pandemic, I made have made a big change for the quality of my health and life. Fatigue is pretty much gone! more energized and can I think better. Along with Zero sugar, and ZERO refine carbs, my gut feels so much better after a meal with NO crashes. Oh, combined with intermittent fasting, I feel like I am top of the world lol and motivated to do things! I am a hiker, I need the energy and I finally found the real solution.
To the *incredible person* that's seeing this, I wish you all the best in life❤ don't over blame yourself, accept things and go forward. Don't let others define what “success” is for you. Get up, learn the skills needed and get after it, all the keys to a happy life is in your hands. Keep pushing.
All of us are awakening to the truths, and great voices like Peterson and many others are spreading this gospel. Fasting and stopping processed food is saving my life. Spirit, mind and body.
Have you noticed this clip is misleading ? Where exactly is Jordan Peterson in this clip ? The first few seconds in the beggining ... and then the ideeas are shoved under his name... wtf is this guya are we going blind ?
Fasting is very important for us humans we were hunter and gather for for thousands of years like this vidio explained it's in our DNA when we hunt and fish we don't catch fish or get what we're hunting for every time. So thousands of years ago humans had to go without eating until the luck of getting food was even an option.
It is simple. Stay busy. Get thirsty. Drink water. Get hungry. Eat slowly. Most of the time all you need is an apple or a orange. Go back to being busy. I eat one meal a day in the Late evening. Wake at 7, don't get hungry until 2 or 3. 75 and do not qualify for a handicap plate. Had to slow down some. Lungs got ate up by Corona virus. NO not the 2019 corona virus. The 2003 virus. Never had a problem with Corona #2. Just limited my mask time to bear minimum. Quit a job that required all day. No dumping the mask after break. Get a fresh one There is a reason why they are called temporary masks prior to 2019. BY OSHA BEFORE the bad planning demic Masks also still required outdoors on break. The pay was not good enough to be stupid for a hobby job. Fresh air, sunshine & unrestricted air works the best.
I have been mostly Keto for the last 2 years and I can tell you that cutting out carbs will not only make you healthier but all the aches and pains will go away. I am 70 and I can remember going into my 50s, I had so many aches and pains I wondered how I would get through old age. Well I suffered until I was 68. 10 years ago I never thought I would go on a serious hike again. I can hike all day now. It is never too late, change your life, change your diet. Exercise is great but if you don't eat right it is useless.
My 20s and 30s were awful with pain. I had rheumatoid arthritis and would cry from the pain and it would disturb my sleep. I’m 49 and completely out of pain from diet change, sleep 8 hours straight every night and feel like a different person.
If 'adding a couple of pounds a year for ten years' sounds uncomfortably true, no matter how good your diet and exercise routine, some form of low Carb diet, a keto diet, is worth investigating.
I'm 5"9" and weighed 200lbs just before i turned 52. I've been walking 20-30 mins/day for the last 7 months. I've lost 20lbs and most of my aches are gone.
Well done but please take it to over a hour go for the 10000 steps a day also try muli walks a day not digging at you but that 1 hour plus is the sweet spot iv power walked for 12 yrs now it saved my life but less thN a hour felt pointless sweat every walk walk hard and try to go 5 miles at least believe me it's worth it also hard uphill down hil and steps go for hikes to off road cross country
I have been looking for this video for YEARS. I heard daily fatigue was due to bad sleep quality, undersleeping, oversleeping, doing too much during the day, and even fapping. But I now realize, thanks to this video, that it’s 100% overeating. Modern humans eat too much and that includes me. The last two days I’ve eaten very little and I’ve felt better than ever…
Sitting up straight and breathing deeply... breathing in... absorbing love... breathing out.... dissolving stress... Sending lots of love and harmonious energy to everyone reading these words ♡
Don't forget to factor in poor soil conditions. Our soils are stripped of natural nutrients. Farmers who last year planted corn, do not this year plant barley, or after so many years plant a cover crop and let the land rest. We never let the land rest anymore and spray on our nutrient deficiencies to get food to look good. It's like a 'spray tan' but with no vitamin D.
It is very interesting you mention letting the land rest. When I was little, my granddad explained to me how every 2 or 4 years (cant remember clearly, i will ask my mum) the land needs to rest and that meant no crop planting. They would plant something similar looking to the cloves because it breathes nutrients into the soil. I have very fond and dear memories of helping him collecting potatoes, onions, corn ... and also fishing! I lived in a busy city, made sure i was good with my studies to confidently fly to my grandparents' for the summer knowing it would be exciting, refreshing and super healthy for the soul, mind, heart and body!! I wish all of this to the next generations, God has given all we need to live healthy lives! Have a superb day!
I just asked dad and it is every 7th year, they plant cloves because feeds the soil with nitrogen for a full year. Cloves are also great food for the cows and milk quality and as it grows so fast, cows would be given it when over grown that way they'd also be nourished. I thought it was very interesting how the land rests in the 7th year... God rested on the 7th day, He created everything and ourselves... provided us with natural food and yet mankind (not so kind) exploits it, as a result no wonder the FATIGUE) less nutrients, more illnesses, hence need for synthetic vits and mins (in best case scenario)... who is at a loss?? All of us! because even those whom make money out of it all... they too die and wont take any of it with them AND would have left behind a legacy of illness, selfishness, lies, etc... so... food for thought. Pondering and introspection time!! Have a great day!
@@evasccl7846 thanks for that info. I wonder how many mass farming operations actually rest the land every 7 years?....or do they just plant another Roundup ready crop and keep pushing
@@paulwiederhold7629 In a consumer oriented and money loving... i can tell you most likely none of the bigs. Which could explain while all of a sudden certain tech people want to farm, why the genetically modified is in the picture and why there's so much interest in controlling the environment... if you do some research... you find more than you bargained for! Also, why were schools stopped from giving Food technology to students, and not allowing schools to plant veggies for kids to learn from it??? too many patterns and details to believe it is coincidence!! Have a great day!
@@sumitbhardwaj561 I am a sugaraholic. I can't have even a little because then I'll want the whole thing. So that wouldn't work for me. So I have to abstain from it completely.
@@sandooch6465 that’s just crazy, you need to train your Brain to have more self control, otherwise you have never truly overcome the problem. Also some carbs are beneficial to you like sweet potato and brown rice. 🍠 everything in moderation.
I do not drink alcohol. My eating period is 9 hours/day. I do not eat processed food, neither do I eat sugar. So my intake is small amounts of protein, lots of vegetables, one fruit portion and minimal carbs. I have not slept “properly” for over 25 years. My husband is kindness itself and rescued me from an abusive relationship in the late 90s and I thank God for him everyday. I am in a perpetual state of anxiety. I am unable to turn off fight or flight and am hyper-sensitive. I do my best in a difficult world.
One of the things that helped me with getting better quality of rest was going to bed early(by10pm) and also limiting my food intake after 7pm. Intermittent fasting(8-9hrs) also helped
Stopping eating 3 hours before laying down for the evening has been a life-changer so far a getting quality sleep is concerned, also low/high carb-cycling and proper food combining, all three of these are incredible for your health
8 hours isn’t really intermittent fasting tho, you wanna do at least 16 hours. 8 hours is just what you don’t eat while you sleep. Add 8 hours to that and you’re good.
It happened to me long time ago and scared me so much so I made a decision that I will put my health first before anything else. It happened to me during a toxic relationship and I felt like no way out.
I called this years ago when I was a kid in the 90s. As a highly sensitive person I realized right away that I could not eat three meals a day. I couldn't and I didn't get it. So I didn't but as a kid your family pushes on you to do what they "know" to be best or what they have known without listening to you. All to often this is the case. This is not new to me about food, but its more than food its culture and definitely not being sensitive to yourself.
For me, I felt fatigue, tired and my mind was foggy. I exercise regularly, sleep 8 hours, eat healthy and still felt like crap. Turns out, I was low on testosterone. Started testosterone replace through my Endocrinologist and never felt better. For some men, these symptoms are due to low T levels.
Believe it or not, some women too! I am a woman and my testosterone levels weren't even registering on a blood test. I had testosterone implants to help balance my hormones and feel so much better.
Hi Hector, I'm in your situation exactly (before testosterone replacement) and can't decide whether to get tested or not. The internet tells me that symptoms of low Testosterone in men are low sex drive, less facial hair, less muscle growth, etc. I don't have any of these symptoms but do have crippling fatigue. Should I get T levels checked? How to know that one should get them checked? Did you encounter any of the above symptoms and got tested as a result of facing them? Thanks for the response in advance!
@@adarshrajbhatt6557 I would encourage you to go get tested. At first, my Dr. Did not want to test me for low T based on my weight, age, and physical appearance. I still requested these T test and i was shockingly low. You know your body and mind better than anyone else, if you live a healthy lifestyle, and you feel extreme fatigue, brain fog, forgetfulness, etc. Then visit your Dr and have him test your blood for low t.
To the person reading this, please do not let your current reality stop you from getting what you want. Remember we are only at the bottom because we are looking for a way to get back up. Implant positive self-image inside you and I promise you will one day get what you want. Cheers. When you give up, that's when it begins.
OMG ,, this explains so much to me. Eating carbs because they’ve been quick and easy lately with my work schedule. I’ve been having strange meltdowns for no reason. Fatigued, hungry, emotional. Thank you for this info
Phenomenal person reading this, surround yourself with people who are better and wealthier! Keeps you humble, teachable, and hungry. You become those with whom you surround yourself with! Birds of a feather flock together! You got this! 🌟 I believe in you! Love - Nat ❤️
well is more complicated ....those people don't need you ...so you can not exercise your goodness ....if you believe in God and Judgment it will be nice to have something to show on your card report
For those struggling, try to set smaller goals. Just one step at a time. Make a list of what you would like to accomplish tomorrow, the week and working out just start small as well. Start with a walk with some stretches, literally 5 minutes a day, if you can do a little more great. Start to think before doing anything, like a walk, think of what am going to wear? And make a thoughtful decision for every step. Take the time to think what would I need to do in order to accomplish MY goal. Each goal at a time. That's the truth. Let's help each other be better collectively. We need to stop being a receiver and start being a giver to both yourself and those around you. Just one day! I'll start doing this today is all, along with repetition and I promise you, you will see changes to not only your physical health but mental health. That will open doors because of your ability to think becomes clearer then where you are. I hope this helps anyone. Good luck and don't worry about time, be in the moment.
I had great results from the one meal a day diet ( not actually one meal but all eating per day is done in one hour ) I felt far more energetic and I also feel a hell of a lot better by cutting out caffeine, I drink green tea , green tea & lemon , peppermint tea , calamine tea only at night and peach & orange tea . I never done it for weight loss although I did loose some weight , I done it because one day at work I looked in my lunchbox and thought this cant go on eating rubbish everyday
This is sooo true!! I use to be so sick!! High blood pressure, border line diabetic... last year, I seriously felt like I was dying. My sleep was awful... I wasn't exercising at all... I was over 220 lbs. And I am only 5'2.. 👀 I took matters into my own hands and made a complete turn around!! I snack lightly but basically have 1 meal maybe 2 a day. My meals have naturally gotten smaller. I just can't eat as much anymore since I cut out sugar (most breads included.) I now weigh under 190 and the weight is falling off!!! Everytime I go to get on a scale, I am shocked!! IF I have bread, it is the Keto kind with fiber based plants, and I may have 1 piece with my eggs over easy on top. I refrigerate my rice for 12 hours before eating it because it lowers the glycemic index by a LOT. I now love my eggs with green leafy veggies maybe a bit of tomato! I look at sugar and refined sugar now like legalized crack. It is addictive and it is literally KILLING people!! 👎👎👎
That's amazing! My I ask, about the rice, when you say a lot, just how much. I'm keto and track my food so I'm curious how much the sugar is lowered. Thanks
I eat a very small breakfast with coffee and then don’t eat until 5-7pm and then I eat a full meal and I’m good. I have lost 50+ lbs in the last 4 months by sticking to this
If I were you, I'd listen to full Jordan Peterson lectures. They're free on RUclips. Healthy eating coupled with healthy goals, finding your life purpose, passions & hobbies, send you on the road to a life well lived. Dr. Jordan Peterson really gave me a leg up, and hope for more from life, with lessons I never got from my parents or teachers. Just set aside some time to listen to the imparted wisdom, and make the change 😊
I am doing the right thing regarding the food I consume. My body did it on its own. My body rejected all meat..I am now a vegetarian. I don't drink fruit juice but eat fruit. I drink mainly tea, black and herbal water and sometimes milk. I walk with my dogs every day come rain or shine. The only drug I took were sleeping tablets..but not anymore. I don't touch alcohol. I don't touch packet foods..or ready meals. Pasta, rice, noodles, porridge, granola or eggs, are my breakfast choices..no cereals. All the above, including plenty of fresh vegetables..were a natural choice. I find myself eating vegetables I once didn't like..and enjoying them. It's like my body is talking to me..so I listen. My snacks are usually toast or nuts. What can I say ? Its good to know I am doing the right thing without realising it. I don't stress about anything, because I have nothing to stress about. We create stress..and at 72..I have done some in my life, but a time came when I told myself..no.more. We control our own destiny..no one else. I make my own choices, I don't let others make them for me. It took me some time to learn that.
I went wrong somewhere along the line. I have of today Jun 8th 22, ended up in hospital in my needs home in Bulgaria, with a perforated ulcer. I would not wish that initial pan on anyone. Says a lot for past living.
@@soulman.9835 Sorry to hear that …. Hopefully by now you’re feeling better. We can’t go back in time and change things, but we can move slowly forward with new goals, habits and choices.
This is pretty great stuff, thank you for this video. I actually noticed that when I do a morning fast my energy levels and quality of life sky rocket. Also doing the Wim Hof Method, breathing and cold showers. Sets me up for the day!

Staring at a screen really drains our energy. We need to move the body. Motion energizes us. I always feel revitalized after a workout. Strange how exerting energy builds more energy
I have been intermittent fasting for 3 years. I don't eat anything before Noon. Only water, and black coffee. I cut my sugar intake by 90%. Nothing past 8:00pm. Except water. No fast food in at least 2 years. Results? At 6'2" I started at 286lbs (obese). I am now a solid 220lbs. Lost 9 inches off my waist, as well as having put on 10lbs of muscle. Without hunger. No gym membership. I sold my car and bought a bicycle. I am 60, and am in better shape than most 30 year old's. More strength, greater endurance, with a naturally higher testosterone level. (tested). No hormone injections, or any additives at all. Only healthy food. I am still getting trimmer month by month, without losing muscle. Libido? Well, I don't want to be called toxic. 😁 If you asked me, during the 23 years that I walked around obese, to make those changes, I would have fought tooth and nail against them. Now, I wish I had a time machine to go back and change things earlier! Plain truth? It is harder to live obese and unhealthy, than it is to live healthy. Trust me, I have walked thousands of miles in both those shoes. Peace and health!
Hi Chris from England! Thanks for sharing your experience! It’s hard to change bad habits and you have successfully overcome....I tip my hat sir! I have been suffering from lack of energy for a while now. I will definitely follow your example and try fasting now.....ta!😁 x
On a similar Journey. 6’1 and a half currently about 276 and down from 304. I’ve been eating maybe twice nothing before noon and fast atleast 18 hrs. Similar protocol wish I would have stuck with it 3 years ago when I started dabbling in keto and IF. Goal is to be at 20% BF by 40 and got about 8 months to do it.
I have always been that guy that never ate breakfast and I usually have a hard time to get the amount of calories that I need in a day (especially since I am very active). People have always told me that this was unhealthy and that I should eat more and have breakfast and what not, but those idiots never saw that I was never tired, never hungry, always had laser sharp focus (people tell me this all the time) and that I am always so calm and controlled. They all don't understand that I am free from the food addiction and tiredness from eating too much. My absolute best days, in regards of performance, are always the days where I don't eat or only 1 meal later that day. Academically I have found that I perform best on an exam when I didn't eat for at least 8 hours beforehand. In the morning I always feel amazing and I only get the urge or desire to eat way in the afternoon. I once heard that the idea of eating breakfast being important came from cereal companies and their commercials trying to boost sales with telling us that 'breakfast is the most important meal of the day'. What a joke. Please tell me then why I always feel worse after eating in the morning instead of not eating?
The less I eat the better I feel Eating lowww carb, not eating before bed, and fasting from dinner to lunch the next day has removed all my depression and increased my joy
I was like this for a while. Then I changed my while daily routine. I started to sleep, wake up on time. I started to make sure I ate all my 4 meals strictly on time, same timing everyday. I workout at least 1 hour alternate days, push ups, sit-ups, pull ups and squats during the evening. After a month or so, I started to gain weight and started to feel much much better with each passing day. Now I feel great and I'm fit and healthy. I think mainly, you just have to change your routine.
@@Fred-my9er doesnt matter. His digestive system is constantly working, as soon as you put only one spoon of rice in your mouth. Thats put constant stress on his body and will age him quickly , along with other problems in the future. This is proven, thats why they say that fasting is important for longevity. Your body needs to clean up, and it cant , if your digestive system has to take care food all the time
@@oranges557 if that's true, then why are my grandparents still here? Grandmom is 96 and grandpa is 92. He can still drive and leave the house on his own. And I'm 30. Look at my pic bro. Do I really look like I age faster? Every foreigner when they meet us, the people of meghalaya, they are always shocked when they learn about our age. They say that we look younger. When I was 25, i went to chennai and people there thought I was 16!!!! Haha!!
@@Eamon597 you are asian. Please use some common sense, all of you look younger. Look at all the bodybuilders and (especially) strongmen, they look extremely old and exhausted in their faces. Most guys in the gym that are huge just look tired and have unhealthy, saggy skin. Youre just an exception to the rule.
You are probably insulin resistant or type 2 diabetic... and you don't even know it. You may also have liver issues as well. I had the same problem being tired all the time for years. About 6 months ago I completely changed my diet (cut the carbs out almost completely) and started fasting. Made a substantial difference for me. I think I have NAFLD and it seems to be healing now. By the end of the first 2 months of changing my diet, I lost 35 pounds. It's going to take more time, but I have already made some incredible improvements in only 6 months time.
As a diabetic, this explains a lot in the way I feel most of the time. Especially the cortisol part. That's probably explains why some days I just have high sugar levels all the time, and I'm doing nothing different. It's probably because I have stress.
@@Mawds69 then that is different, although a whole foods plant based diet will improve you dramatically. there is a lot of bad science out there, and not all diets work the same fore everyone. i believe the whole foods diet works the best for everyone as this really does go back to our closest earth ancestor the bonobo monkey.
I'm 71. 18 months ago I weighed 205 (I'm 5'9"). Always tired, ate too much bad stuff. I put myself on a plan I designed. 11 a.m.: 2 eggs, 1 p.m: one cup of cantaloupe, berries, red grapes, 3 p.m. lunch salad plus a protein like tuna, BBQ chicken, etc. 5 p.m. dark chocolate with some kind of nuts, 7 p.m. dinner w/a couple servings of green/orange veggies and a protein. No dairy, no whole grains, beans or legumes other than peanuts, no alcohol. Bed at 10:30. Walk 2-3 miles 7 days a week. Work 5 hours a day. Today I weigh 159 pounds. I wake up between 6 and 7 naturally, have no fatigue except for the pleasant tiredness, well-earned, shortly before bed. Also, in any given week, I choose to eat some sweets like a brownie or a piece of cake, candy like M&Ms or Jolly Ranchers, or I have a hot dog or some fried chicken strips and French fries and about twice a month drink a 7 oz soda. All of the junk is carefully portioned and is a necessary part of my eating plan. If I said "no more sweets", that would not be sustainable for me. My cholesterol has also gone from 205 to 152 and I feel great.
Doing this (fasting) and after hearing Franco Columbo’s recollections of how some silver and golden bodybuilders ate made it click in me. He said they ate nothing but high fat and protein meals 6 days a week and splurged on Sunday. He would incorporate high fiber vegetables, too. Their bodies would learn how to utilize their insulin more efficiently by doing this. I have one huge and diverse bowl of salad and veggies with 5-6 eggs/groundbeef/fish and all the Ranch or Italian dressing I want. It comes out to about 1200-1800 cal depending on my mood, and I finish it within the span of a coulle of hours. Ill throw in a 1-2 day fast or a one day anything I want day every two weeks here and there. Ive easily lost 25 lbs (im 5’4’’ mesomorph male that was at 170lbs) in 2.5 months. I went through the sugar/ processed food heebeejeebees for about 2 weeks, but if I eat that meal on time, I have 0% temptation around junk. My sleep went from 1-2 naps and 8 hour sleeps to 6 hours and up and hyper af. My concentration levels are through the roof for reading and self growth. Im off of bp medicine and sleep apnea is gone. My second covid recovery was much faster, not only because of my previous antibodies, but also because my high infflamation markers, insulin and hypertension were way lowered.
Freaking awesome! I have some of the same issues you had. Crippling fatigue for no real reason (weight is good, etc), sleep apnea, multiple naps. STILL haven't found wtf is wrong. Cpap didnt help. Now what??! grrr
Started eating 2 meals/day. Stopped sugar and cut back radically on carbohydrates. Also, started dog walking for those who cannot walk their own. Do this for, on average 2-3 hours daily. Dropped from 88 to 77kg and feel so much better.
I'm a 65yo,very active man.Retired,I enjoy surfing,walking,and generally having fun on the beach. I eat once a day,in the evening around 5pm. I have a beet smoothie in the morning, w/ coffee, and Apple cider vinegar. I drink lots of water,green tea during the day. I don't smoke, don't drink,or use drugs. I have unlimited energy,and sleep like a log at night. This works for me,just sayin..
I had quadruple bypass, two hip replacements over a 14 month period in 2020-2021. I was diabetic, high cholesterol and lipids. I cut all sugar, and only bake with monk fruit sugar. If I want sweet, I make keto deserts with monk fruit. I eat all organic meats, vegies, some fruit. I two months I lost 50 pounds, my cholesterol is normal, lipids normal, blood sugar under control and normal. I've hiked for years, and now I'm going further. Feel younger and I don't need a nap everyday. I'm 63.
Many cultures around the world had perfected agriculture but did not over eat like we do in the west. No negativity, just saying! Good info nonetheless
I'm a personal fitness trainer and suffer from depression. For years I've been tired just like was talked about in this video. My doctors determined that I have Sleep Apnea. I've been on a CPAP machine every night for over a year. It's really helped me manage the day, and my workouts are much better.
I am 57. I grew up with sinus infections and colds every year. Actually was taught to fear the cold. “Don’t you go outside with your head wet, or with no jacket, you’ll catch your death of cold”. Such hogwash. I had a sinus infection or head cold most of my life. 4 years ago I started eating healthy. Started the Wim Hof Method. Started cycling and walking barefoot. Bought a pair of kangaroo skin toe shoes. Life has not been the same since. I have not been sick the last 4 years. Inflammation, dehydration and lack of sleep is a huge problem in our culture. Sugar is a killer. Feel the best I have ever felt. Sleep, correct breathing and cold showers. Life changer
@@A.777-p8m when you do the breathing cycles of the Wim Hof method that oxygenates your body. Then when you take a cold shower afterwards it shocks the arteries in your veins and gives them a great work out. Therefore sending more oxygen to your blood. Which intern lowers inflammation. You should try his method. It truly works.
I have given up sugar and wheat (as well as potatoes and rice). Never felt so great on every level. No cravings, weight falling off. 4 months into the rest of my life and I’m not going back to the old life. Ever.
I started intermittent fasting a couple years ago, and for the most part, I just naturally do it everyday now. My problem isn't always feeling hungry or gaining too much weight, however, I now have the opposite problem. I'm only hungry once or twice a day, but in that window, I eat very satiating foods with a lot of fat and protein, and a little unprocessed carbs. Because I feel satiated so easily with the food I eat, I find it hard to eat enough. I feel better than I did eating 3 meals a day with processed carbs with each meal, but I'm always losing weight. I've been underweight my entire adult life. When I was at my most "normal" weight, it was all water weight and belly fat and I felt awful. I have a very hard time building muscle, and I work out and actually go to a personal trainer twice a week to make sure I'm on point with my workouts. I get stronger, but never get bigger. I consume as much protein as my appetite will allow. However, all this only seems to cause me to slowly lose more weight when I'm already on the cusp of being underweight (I'm currently 148lbs and I'm 6'2). It's hard to balance wanting to feel good, mentally and physically, with feeling like I'm slowly withering away. Although the weight I lose seems to all be body fat, or water storage, I can't seem to gain the muscle to replace the weight I lose. Most people watching videos like this seem to want to lose weight. Any tips for, not just maintaining weight, but gaining it while eating this way?
Perhaps see a professional - but if it were me, I’d be eating even though I don’t feel like it (as in choosing nutrition over feelings, since you’re wanting to add weight.) I believe this is what body builders do - in their bulking phases (many also use steroids, which carry too many risks - so don’t do that) but there are things they do on their bulking phases to add more calories in and they just eat, even though they don’t feel like it. Because you’re so tall - it’s always harder for tall people. There may be some things you are doing that suppress appetite too - so look into that - things like drinking coffee, or there may be something else..
growing up (even at a very young age), i never ate breakfast. No matter who was trying to force me, i couldn't; made me too tired for the day ahead. Most of the time i was even uninterested in lunch, rather took my time to socialize, smoke (I know, i know...hush) by the time supper hit and i got home i was actually hungry and ate well but not enough to gorge myself and always had a spike of energy around an hour after. FF to Feb 2019 i was way overweight, menopausal and weighed 206; i immediately started the KETO way of eating and by sept of 2019 i was down to 138 lbs. It reset my whole system with little to no exercise aside from gardening. Never ate bread again....picked up eating potatoes, corn and the occasional ice cream and other things not on the keto plan for 3 years......i've only gained back 20 and i am on my way to losing that. It's incredible what they teach as the standard american diet. they want you dead early. period.
May I ask how old you are? I'm 75. I have widespread osteoarthritis so I can't exercise the way I used to. I've gained at least 25 pounds in the past few years. I really want to lose some weight just to be more comfortable. Do you think keto would work for me?
I had fatigue so bad i'd lay awake looking up at the ceiling for hours because I had no energy. I didn't know it but I was having a bad inflammatory response from eating vegetable/seed oils. After I started using mostly lard and cut sugar I feel like an entirely different person. I can't imagine how college would have gone if I was able to read more than two words at a time.
Keto + Time Restricted Feeding is the only thing that has worked for me longterm. Not only was I able to loose weight and stay thin, I had so much more energy. I never got tired and was never sick.
I believe my diet is killing me mentally and physically. I am asking for prayers to help me learn proper nutrition and to give me the desire and motivation to make the changes in my life. I don’t want to live like this any longer, I believe in the power of prayer. Please pray for me.
God told us to eat vegetables and natural foods ( unadulterated by processing and chemical additives). Educate yourself about what you put in your body. The default all around you is loads of poison! You have to take controll over what goes IN. Just like God tells us to have self-control over our minds, your body is a gift to be cherished via self-control. Change your brain-chemistry by the foods you eat!! EXPECT pushback from your mind while detoxing from poison!! Food is medicine and healing- it turns on/off genes. You want good, cancer-fighting genes to stay ON, by eating the foods that talk to these genes!!: Meats from animals not tortured ( =high in stress hormones) and fed original diets. Beef only from grass-fed cows! Chicken from pasture-raised organic hens. Pasture raised eggs. Fish: smaller kinds and WILD caught- NOT FARMRAISED! Vegetables: if you eat the skin get them organic. Same with fruit. Limit fruits b/c of high fructose content ( 1x/day). All non-organic and GMO produced foods are grown with pesticides, which end up in your colon and destroy the good bakteria, that help you digest your food properly. Over time your colon wears out from the pesicide influence and will get sluggish ( can lead to gastroparesis, end- stage of a disease stemming from processed foods, lack of vegetables ( fiber) and consumption of harmful chemicals). Understand the difference between Good and (very) Bad fats. Good fats: grass-fed butter, coconut oil, extra-virgin olive oil, First Cold Press in dark GLASS bottle, organic ( most other ones are stretched with other oils). BAD, inflammation-causing oils: ex. Margarine, Vegetable oil, canola oil, safflower oil and otheres; fats from grain-fed cattle. These harmful oils/fats are very common in cookies, baked foods, and mayonnaise, as well as restaurant food. DO NOT EAT WHEAT regularly and limit other ( bad) carbs. Reduce bad carbs ( processed flour products, pasta, crackers, bagles, breads, baked goods) to special occasions. Eat potatoes cooled off. Research: yes, there is flourless bread. READ & watch: Wheat Belly by William Davis; it will rock your taste buds! You Tube: Dr. Berg is awesome!! Know all keto principals and apply them regularly. The main point is to get your insulin-response down by limiting carbs from starch, increase carbs from greens and consume more ( good) fats and good protein. This will reset your cravings. Dr. Mark Hyman ( books). Practice intermitten fasting! 15-18 hours a day, two meals, no eating at least 4-5 hours before bed. Take a 30 min walk every day. Do some moderate strength training 5x week, altering muscle groups. Applying all the above, I'm in better shape than in my highschool years, (weigh 12 lbs less, in mid-50ies, size 4). Dial yourself in, step by step over a period of 1 month. Eliminate 1 bad habit, replace with 1 good habit. It works if you start with anything above. Blessings:)
Never had fatigue until I came here to Chicago and hit bottom of the socio-economic scale and STAYED THERE for the last 15 years! The life I've experienced here has been HELLACIOUS! And at the same time I hit my 60's and I am now in my 70's and I just kept aging and aging. Depression. Anxiety. Then Covid! A real downward spiral! But a Type 2diagnosis was a major wake up call--I started throwing all the crap out of my fridge and pantry and got real with a healthy diet and upped the home yoga, exercise (can't go to the gym during the Pandemic) and walking, walking, walking everyday. It's so much better now!
I've had no carbs for 6 weeks: 15 lbs lost (I wasn't huge), mental acuity back, lots more energy, better sleep and in a good mood. Just imagine if we all did that?
Carbs are needed.. your Eating shit carbs.. tired of these keto diets , eat what you like.. more then your Maintenance you gain wait less then your Maintenance you Lose weight.. period laws of thermal dynamics..
It's not sustainable long term...nor will it be pleasant indefinitely....carbs in high amounts daily is the prolbrem along with constant snacking .......best advice if u like keto do it 4-5 days a week then have 2-3 days where u consume carbs or eat what u like within reason....a cheeseburger for example is so overly hyped as bad ..even with the bun hamburgers range from 40-50grams of carbs witch is pretty low if u skip the fry's and soda it's not bad at all ...perfect for a day u want carbs ...don't eat multiple meals and don't consume high amounts of carbs and sugar daily u will feel great ....if u exercise or are active regularly u will need carbs or some on some level ...if ur not active at all cutting them down is way easier and u will need way less of them...u can loose jus as much weight eating 2 low fat 12 inch cold subs a day vs 2 keto meals....ur activity level is what makes the difference...I've done both lost jus as much on both...I find keto is easier when I'm not active...and can go longer not eating....if I'm active the low-fat turkey hoagie is easier and more enjoyable but can go jus as long not eating when I'm active........having a variety and listening to ur body's wants is important....ur body always gives warning signs if u notice it
@@gman5069 thanks! I'm on my 7th month of pure keto 30 carbs a day, 2MAD, but I don't count macros etc and I don't beat myself up if I cheat once in a while. 24 lbs down, 5 more to go, feeling good, 72 years old. do my 10k steps a day, I'm so looking forward to BREAD.
To add on to our hunter-gathering days, as mentioned we rarely had the opportunity to feast so we would eat everything we could when we had the chance. One type of food in particular would present itself on rare occasions; ripe fruits. When humans would come across a tree with ripe fruits they would feast like never before because you just had to be there at the right place and time to get to eat such delicious carbs. The thing is, DNA doesn't forget so we still compulse over carbs - the problem being that nowadays they are refined, hence unhealthy. So why do you think we go through our whole McDonald's order and still make it go down with an xlarge soft drink? DNA just doesn't forget ;) - PS ; read that in a great book called Sapiens
i am a 41 yr old male with aspergers, adhd and depression, i let my depression control me for 39 yrs im 6ft 3, and weighed in at an average of 11 stone but last year i decided enough is enough, ive been working out hard almost daily since, ive now gone up to 18 stone in just over 1 year and i feel like im 21 again, my depression has never returned and im completely med free. Routine kept me alive when i was empty. I suggest anyone who has confidence based depression to try exercise and routine
Make sure to be in calorie deficit for weight loss, track your macros, drink a lot of water. Be disciplined and with all this and proper exercise you'll not be fatigued. If you are still fatigued then your brain is not getting enough rest. Try meditating. Good luck whoever is suffering, there's always light at the end of the tunnel.
But of course , it doesn't always mean that the more protein you take , the better you will get . If you eat too much protein , indeed it would have bad influence on your body . Not only fatigue of organ , kidney , but also it could cause obesity as well Before you implementing these concepts you have to search well how much you have to take each nutrients . Again , carbs is not the substances you have to totally avoid .
By giving up processed sugar and focusing on more raw foods and intermittent fasting, Ive lost some of that belly fat. Life is stressful in general but when I ride my bike everyday I notice the more i do that, the more stamina I have available.
Last 5 months, Ive cut carbs down to like 1/3. Have not felt this alive in over 2 decades. Wish i wouldve dumped carbs sooner. Carbs had been holding me back like forever.
If you’re reading this comment, it’s too late, you’ve already been immensely blessed with an abundance of love, wealth, luck, health, joy, and whatever else your heart desires!!

It’s been amazing for me this past year. I was 180-185, started a new job the first week of this year and as of this morning I’m at 133. I must mention that I have always been very active in action sports since age 5, I’m 37 now. Training very hard in BMX Racing from 5-16. Then transferred to other action sports and continued. But I not only got more active by starting a more physically demanding job, but I work in a produce department of my local grocery store. So I went from eating two meals a day of whatever I wanted to lunch being a “snack”, usually light like a fruit cup or a protein plate (single serving of grilled chicken breast, Colby Jack cheese cubes and half sliced strawberries as the treat. Then eating a decent meal of whatever after I get home. I’m the leanest I’ve been since I was a teenager. I don’t even need to flex in order to see veins popping out everywhere. A video that intrigued me, as well. Joe Rogan had a podcast with a Jiu Jitsu Champ by the name of Mikey Musumeci. There is a segment where he talks about his training and dieting routine. The man trains all day, doesn’t eat any meals until dinner. Intermittent fasting, followed by a big meal. The joke being that all he eats is pizza and pasta. Going as far as to hand make everything before cooking it and owning a pizza oven. Point being, I ate like shit and more often. Intermittent fasting paired with less food or lighter versions of it, helped me lose 50 lbs in less than a year and now I’m motivated with a goal of hitting 120 lbs then build up muscle. EDIT: I must admit, physically I’m the happiest I have been in a really long time and my mentality is shifting towards positive in a lot of areas of my life. I have more confidence. People are noticing a shift in not only my physic but my mood. Though I am happily married, women (customers and coworkers) are taking notice, as well.
Quitting caffiene was my biggest fixer, I still get tired but as soon as I start doing stuff the amount of energy I have when I start doing it is so much more than when I was constantly caffinated your body burns up so much energy even when your just sitting because your heart rate increases and your flight or fight chemicals are firing off now I know I have a full tank of fuel and I decide when to use it
This is most informative video I've seen on human body and food. I've watched so many idealistic ones with people just pushing their beliefs not actual good Science. And good on you for not making this not a fear based video like alot are
I'm sorry that's happening to you. Hang in there. Keep looking for the answers... they will come piece by piece. Remember to breathe. When the student is ready the teacher will appear. (Or many teachers over time). Sending thoughts and prayers your way! There are answers out there! Stay curious, ask lots of questions, and read every credible source you can find. Network with people face to face or online. Something will work out and improve your quality of life. HNg on to hope! You can do this!
I think about this 3 meals a day a lot, and tell my family they don't need all the food they eat. I eat a high protein shake with spinach, seeds and beets by 6 am every morning, then I eat a meal around 3:pm. I'm happy with a yogurt and fruit, sardines, a salad... my weight has stayed the same for 5 years. I do not nap but I go to bed early.
Once you are in this fatigue state it seems to be extremely hard to get out, probably as hard as to get off drugs is my guess. Also money makes it extremely difficult too.
I have been saying this for years. I have a big family, 5 kids, I was saying to my wife that in the wild we probably would not eat every day, at least not big meals or meat. We would probably survive on seeds and veg day to day, but every now and then you would get a kill/trap an animal, then the family would feast and get all that protein and fat from the meat, but then it may be another week or so until you got another big feast, maybe a rabbit or bird or 2 through the week if you were lucky or lived in the right areas. Also, maybe less importantly, we would most likely not bathe in warm water, at least not in the UK, we would be in cold streams, lakes or the sea. Personally I have a cold shower every morning and think it is amazing for body and mind, when you can push yourself to do that every day without fail, there is not much you can't do.
i used to think like this, then i remembered that hey, those people had horrible shitty lives and would spend most of the day doing nothing trying to conserve energy so that they don't starve, they didn't go to work 12 hours a day, exercise, socialize and commute. they huddled in their hut and hoped they live to see another day. My main inspiration for your line of thinking was this tribe in africa that eats every other day, but when i looked more into it much later i realized that hey these people spend less energy in a day than i do before lunch. Still not eating until you are full for every meal is probably a good idea. just don't be one of those parents that pushes their ideals on children and then they end up malnourished or short and stubby because they were half starved their whole childhood. Cold showers are good tho and also save energy which is always nice with these damn bills getting higher and higher with the energy crisis slowly on the rise
@@Grancigul ha yeah don't worry they aren't starving, 3 of them do kickboxing and 1 is a black belt already at 11 years old and built like a brick shithouse, as the old phrase goes. I do think you may have a point though, modern life may be much more demanding in different ways
Stop thinking in terms of studies ... think in terms of natural simple solutions. Who cares about serotonin or melatonin? Do you digest the food or the conscience inside you? Do you repair your body consciously during sleep? No, no and no. The body knows ... just give it the nutrients it needs and stay away from or manage stress.
I used to eat very few carbs for years, then when I started getting more carbs I felt better. I think it's important everyone read a book called diet cults. Carbs are neutral.
I have been diagnosed with bi-polar 2, adhd, epilepsy, depression, anxiety, mania, auditory and visual hallucinations, I’ve had suicidal tendencies, I’m very prone to night terrors, and on top of all that I’ve been a heavy addict to a number of drugs for about 12 years (I just turned 28). I’ve been sober from my favorite things for about 6 months now (fentanyl, dilaudid, ketamine, benzos, cocaine, synthetic acid, and a few other random things). I hit rock bottom, but it was incredibly difficult to get off those opiates cold turkey, I felt like I was going insane and I wanted to kill myself but I was under supervision. But things are a lot better, so much less to worry about, I’m able to actuall y strive towards what I really want in life. Not always just focusing on getting more. The shitty thing though is that I’m on so many medications and I have been for a long time. Bi-polar med, anti convulsion med, anxiety med, adderall, and suboxone to curb my opiate addiction. Most of these 3 times per day, the others twice. I’ve been on most of these meds for a long time. And my doctors said I most likely won’t be able to ever get off some of them. :,( I wanna know what it feels like to feel normal, I don’t remember.
I will pray for good health for your mind, body and soul. Jesus is King of Kings, Lord of Lord's; nothing is impossible for Him. Men are created in God's Image. You know your body best, not any doctor. I would never accept an answer such as "you can never stop taking these pills, or you can never walk again, talk again etc... those things are possible or even probable outcomes, but not the goal. We should all focus our attention and aim for the best possible outcomes derived from the highest good... Which can only be obtained through faith in Jesus Christ, truthfulness, hard work, and a collective effort from yourself and those who love/ surround you- to promote, critique, and work toward becoming the best version of yourself. To quote the Holy Bible: "Do not lie to one another, seeing that you have put off the old self with its practices and have put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge after the image of its Creator." - Colossians 3:9-10 God be with you.
Carbs…. My weakness 😭. It’s almost like I know cutting out bread and fries will make me feel better but I just love them so much 😕. I’m not over weight, I take in a lot of protein, I’m very active BUT I also feel fatigued way more than I should.
I was on a high eggs low carb diet but I started to really feel the downside of too many eggs so I switched back to bread lunch and felt super tired a week later. Now I'm on a soup diet and I'm energetic again. Don't do bread, kids.
Soup diet? As in out of a can? That's terrible for you, too. Sodium is a killer. Fresh veggies, fruit, and water would be far superior than soup. If you aren't a vegetarian, add fish and chicken in. You'll feel great. Good luck.
@@JoeJacksonGT3 Oh, yeah no it's freshly made soup with fresh ingredients and meat. Low sodium too (only innate salt in the meat, stock and other ingredients). No canned things for sure!
@@rajkuma921 I just meant that I replaced my lunches and suppers with soups instead of other carb free diets. I make my own soups from fresh ingredients, whatever I find would taste good. But two of my fav are (adjusted) Onion Soup and (adjusted) Suppa Toscane. They're both adjusted to not have carbs. I.e. just leave out the bread, flour and potatoes.
Here is something the video didn't tell you..
Battled fatigue my entire life. Even though I am near peak fitness, sleep regularly, limit screen time, watch my diet, and don't do drugs. Not even alcohol. Felt like I needed a nap throughout the day my entire life...Now I sleep 4-6 hrs and run like a machine. It took me 38 years to figure it out..take it or leave it.
1. Walk barefoot. Studies prove it. You are fatigued because you lack ENERGY. We are electric beings and the earth has a grounded charge. We evolved this way. It is vital we connect. To every cell in your body. Minimum 15 minutes a day, but longer the better. Sand, dirt, rock, cement are best. No asphalt, not sure about grass. More conductivity when wet. The effects are immediate but you likely won't "feel" it until the following morning. Keep at it a few days and you'll never turn back. Energy like a kid again. No shit.
2. Sun. Even better while grounded. Get some color.
3. Never eat past 6 pm. Very lightly if you must.
4. Meditate daily. Find the time. Everything about you improves with a relaxed mind.
5. Breathework before bed. 5 minutes is enough. I do 3 rounds of "breathe of fire"
6. Remove sugar almost completely from your diet. Sugar is a drug and you are likely a junkie. It won't be easy. After you push through withdrawal (yes) which may take 2 weeks to a month the "false"energy you received from sugar will be replaced by "golden" energy. Like when you were a kid. You won't want to go back. Although, cravings will still rear up..have fruit ready.
7. Limit EMF exposure. Grounding combats this very effectively. NEVER sleep with a cell in your room. Absolutely no Bluetooth headphones. Less time around electronics the better. Get outside.
8. Fasting. Late breakfast early supper. Most yogis eat once a day and live to 100 with high energy. Every so often mix in a legit fast. I like 24- 36 hours. Past that I lose muscle but everyone is different.
I hope someone reads this and it helps them
Thanks for sharing all these parts of how you live.
Real good advice you just gave. I like to do grounding in my garden on stone flags while getting some sunshine at the same time in summertime makes you feel energised, I also fast 12-14hrs every night which really keeps the body fat down and the energy up, I've never tried a longer fast than that but I am considering it. Also I don't eat anything that is made by man, if you eat like this you won't get low energy.
What about carbs such as rice, bread, and crackers?
And what about dairy? Eggs, cheese, cream cheese ect.
@@JudithSantana-p9l I've experimented with many different diets. The specifics of what you eat is largely overrated and likely varies person to person. Listen to your body. Study how you feel.
Most important by far is how much you eat and when. Never go to bed full.. stop constantly sipping water..too much comfort zone will kill you, you didn't evolve that way. Eat less, eat simpler, and mix in serious fasting every so often. It's like a reset for your entire system. Brain, gut, energy, immunity.. Practically no sugar. Not even honey. That's the tough one. Also bone broth now and then. Your local butcher will have the bones. Just boil them for 48 hours and add a little beef base for flavor. Get some jars and freeze it for later it won't hurt it. Kobe Bryant said it was the #1 diet secret for his ability to heal and maintain his body. Also something that makes sense from a paleo evolution sense...good luck
@@steveguse4481 how do you feel about sweeteners
I have been diagnosed with bipolar 1,ADHD,CPTSD,& epilepsy(3 types of seizures).Last year I completely changed how I eat-no sugar or processed foods at all,lots of veggies,some fruit,eggs,and limited fish and dairy.I've never felt better,I'm off almost all the medications I use to on(I'm down to 3 now),I'm seizure free,stress free,and do 3 hours of exercise a day!
Read about adhd and food dye.
Stay strong! I'm with you.
@@francesbale1409 I hope you don't mind my input. I have CPTSD also and severe insomnia among other things. About five years ago I was put on psych meds (tried several- dont even want to get into it) and all had negative side effects. I went to a holistic dr who put me on lithium (natural) and got me off all prescription psych meds , the last one being Effexir. I've been doing a lot better on it than on anything.
Just something to think about. To look into. I know everyone is different.
My best to you !
Be good to yourself!
That's great success, what you have achieved is what most strong and powerful cannot do.
Remember health is one of the most valuable things in life
I know you can do it!I used to be 900mg of seroquel a day and now I'm down to 100mg.I've found yoga,long walks in nature,meditation,journaling,fousing on my creative projects,limiting my screen time,and not watching the news were all very helpful.

I spent years in an abusive relationship. I was always exhausted. Recently I met a man who was a little over a year a widow from a years long unfulfilling relationship. Neither one of us slept more than four hours a night. We were up and down, read, watched tv, whatever. When we got together and got to the point of having sleep overs, his house, my house, we noticed that our sleep became much deeper and we slept longer. Finally, he said, just always sleep at my house. That was almost three months ago and now we are both sleeping a full, constant 8 hours of deep sleep every night. We are both calmer, happier, quicker to laugh. I can see it in his face, he looks less stressed, younger. He tells me I look beautiful when I’m happy. We are 57 years old.
You guys are awesome
Thanks for sharing
Thats a lovely story to hear. . I surmise there are thousands of ppl in this world that need to have what u have just found.
💪🏻❤👍🏻
May you have many years of love together!!!
Feeling exhaustion even if u have slept means that the mind is not rested. There are lot of issues that constantly bothering your mind. U need to start looking at things that are affecting your daily life and causing issues, take those out. Clear the clutter, clear the mind.
wait this is actually so fckn true... few days ago i made myself fantastic dinner and i decided to just sit, play some good music and turn off internet and stop texting people. I felt so relaxed
Yes, mindfulness and meditation helped me become less tires, overthing made me exhausted. I also take cold showers for a energy boost.

And we also learned intermittent fasting. My son,, from being a huge, unhealthy 6 footer, made a big change due to one-meal-a-day 5 days until the weekend, then 2 meals on the weekend, is now a skinny 187cm, and I am a 2 meal-a-day person, who's never hungry and only have a small breakfast because I get a bit of nausea before I eat. I finish by 1 or 2pm. I feel great, have no doctor. take no pharmaceuticals, am 82 yrs old.

@truthsout
Whoa...just changing to one meal a day made that much of a difference? I should give that a try. Now does he make it one BIG meal or just a normal meal ,once a day?
In my 40s I started to figure my body out. I've been naturally doing what is taught here. I just do push ups in the evenings. And follow this guide to a degree. I dropped about 40 lbs and am slowly building muscles just from the push ups. I'm getting better results now than when I was 20 and lived at the gym.
My 2 bits.
If you do nothing but push ups, you will eventually have hunched shoulders, and back problems. You should do at least three times as much work on your back as your chest. Same goes for triceps to biceps, and most importantly legs, never miss leg day, your legs are your second heart.
@@IndridCold. That's a lie. You'll only have back problems if you don't use proper form.
@@TheJesseJman I would suggest that if you develop your chest with proper form, and don't work your back, you will be out of balance.
There is nothing wrong with push-ups
@bastiat there is such a thing as bad food. Its usually the processed stuff thats devoid of nutrients.
It’s also called burn out. Two years of being in fight or flight mode producing too much stress hormones keeps us exhausted.
Hi 👋 Sharon, how are you doing ?
I hope you so Sharon. 3 years of unbelievable exhaustion. I don't know if it's CFS or burn-out... hoping it's the latter. How are you doing now?
True this.
7 yrs in NYC burned me out. Finally moved out earlier this month to Nevada 🥹🙏🙏 🏔️ 🏜️
What makes you tired is doing something stressful every day-something you don’t want to do: Facing an overbearing boss at work or a difficult family member or an avalanche of rude customers. Even if you compartmentalize it and deal with it well at the time, later on your body and mind will scream, “Please don’t make me do this” on a daily basis. Then when it’s over, your mind pleads, “Let me rest now.” Persistent stress, however well managed at the time, has a cumulative effect. Eventually you are in a constant state of unwillingness, which manifests as, “Go away world; I’m tired.” What you eat, whether you exercise, how much you sleep: These things are actually secondary causes of feeling tired all the time. The root of it all, the primary factor, is mental and emotional, not physical.
I agree. For me. Mentally and emotionally if you're "wrecked" you will feel very tired. Even eating nothing. Thank you for this❤️
I agree, stress is horrible. At work I cannot seem to eat enough. At home in my garden I will do hard labor for hours on end n forget to eat.
Also being sedentary. Sitting at a computer for eight hours
I’m exhausted. I hate it
I agree with you.
I disagree with what you said at the end. What you eat, how much you sleep and exercise will strongly impact the stress you experience and how you physically respond to stress. Don’t for a second think it can be brushed off as secondary. Having a strong, recovered, well rested body prepares you significantly for the endurance of daily stress which should be expected as a person with responsibilities. It is a cycle. Control the factors that you can control. Eat healthy, exercise, and get your sleep. These are within your control more so than other external stressors and will make a big difference.
Love the message that was given here! Ever since the Pandemic, I made have made a big change for the quality of my health and life. Fatigue is pretty much gone! more energized and can I think better. Along with Zero sugar, and ZERO refine carbs, my gut feels so much better after a meal with NO crashes. Oh, combined with intermittent fasting, I feel like I am top of the world lol and motivated to do things! I am a hiker, I need the energy and I finally found the real solution.

All of us are awakening to the truths, and great voices like Peterson and many others are spreading this gospel. Fasting and stopping processed food is saving my life. Spirit, mind and body.
Have you noticed this clip is misleading ? Where exactly is Jordan Peterson in this clip ? The first few seconds in the beggining ... and then the ideeas are shoved under his name... wtf is this guya are we going blind ?
@Brian Groogle really....a junkie? Lol settle down a bit
Fasting is very important for us humans we were hunter and gather for for thousands of years like this vidio explained it's in our DNA when we hunt and fish we don't catch fish or get what we're hunting for every time. So thousands of years ago humans had to go without eating until the luck of getting food was even an option.
It is simple. Stay busy. Get thirsty. Drink water. Get hungry. Eat slowly. Most of the time all you need is an apple or a orange.
Go back to being busy. I eat one meal a day in the Late evening. Wake at 7, don't get hungry until 2 or 3.
75 and do not qualify for a handicap plate. Had to slow down some.
Lungs got ate up by Corona virus. NO not the 2019 corona virus. The 2003 virus. Never had a problem with Corona #2.
Just limited my mask time to bear minimum.
Quit a job that required all day. No dumping the mask after break. Get a fresh one
There is a reason why they are called temporary masks prior to 2019. BY OSHA BEFORE the bad planning demic
Masks also still required outdoors on break. The pay was not good enough to be stupid for a hobby job.
Fresh air, sunshine & unrestricted air works the best.
Wont matter without jobs. Onlybthe truly awakened can create economy
I have been mostly Keto for the last 2 years and I can tell you that cutting out carbs will not only make you healthier but all the aches and pains will go away. I am 70 and I can remember going into my 50s, I had so many aches and pains I wondered how I would get through old age. Well I suffered until I was 68. 10 years ago I never thought I would go on a serious hike again. I can hike all day now. It is never too late, change your life, change your diet. Exercise is great but if you don't eat right it is useless.
62, same. Good advice.
So true if you don’t eat right (or have a hidden food intolerance) EVERYTHING else is useless
Purely subjective bias. Need fiber for a good gut microbiota. Imbalanced gut is from which every disease occurs
My 20s and 30s were awful with pain. I had rheumatoid arthritis and would cry from the pain and it would disturb my sleep. I’m 49 and completely out of pain from diet change, sleep 8 hours straight every night and feel like a different person.
If 'adding a couple of pounds a year for ten years' sounds uncomfortably true, no matter how good your diet and exercise routine, some form of low Carb diet, a keto diet, is worth investigating.
I'm 5"9" and weighed 200lbs just before i turned 52. I've been walking 20-30 mins/day for the last 7 months. I've lost 20lbs and most of my aches are gone.
Keep going my friend...well.done.
@@Redtop1965 have started jogging the same route
Congrats 👏 Keep up the good work!
I started running and my knee pain went away.
Well done but please take it to over a hour go for the 10000 steps a day also try muli walks a day not digging at you but that 1 hour plus is the sweet spot iv power walked for 12 yrs now it saved my life but less thN a hour felt pointless sweat every walk walk hard and try to go 5 miles at least believe me it's worth it also hard uphill down hil and steps go for hikes to off road cross country
I have been looking for this video for YEARS. I heard daily fatigue was due to bad sleep quality, undersleeping, oversleeping, doing too much during the day, and even fapping. But I now realize, thanks to this video, that it’s 100% overeating. Modern humans eat too much and that includes me. The last two days I’ve eaten very little and I’ve felt better than ever…
I'm really happy for you. Bless you my friend

Don't forget to factor in poor soil conditions. Our soils are stripped of natural nutrients. Farmers who last year planted corn, do not this year plant barley, or after so many years plant a cover crop and let the land rest. We never let the land rest anymore and spray on our nutrient deficiencies to get food to look good. It's like a 'spray tan' but with no vitamin D.
It is very interesting you mention letting the land rest. When I was little, my granddad explained to me how every 2 or 4 years (cant remember clearly, i will ask my mum) the land needs to rest and that meant no crop planting. They would plant something similar looking to the cloves because it breathes nutrients into the soil. I have very fond and dear memories of helping him collecting potatoes, onions, corn ... and also fishing! I lived in a busy city, made sure i was good with my studies to confidently fly to my grandparents' for the summer knowing it would be exciting, refreshing and super healthy for the soul, mind, heart and body!! I wish all of this to the next generations, God has given all we need to live healthy lives! Have a superb day!
That was deep. I usually don't hear anyone mention this, but it is really important to know because plants get the nutrients we need, from the soil.
I just asked dad and it is every 7th year, they plant cloves because feeds the soil with nitrogen for a full year.
Cloves are also great food for the cows and milk quality and as it grows so fast, cows would be given it when over grown that way they'd also be nourished.
I thought it was very interesting how the land rests in the 7th year... God rested on the 7th day, He created everything and ourselves... provided us with natural food and yet mankind (not so kind) exploits it, as a result no wonder the FATIGUE) less nutrients, more illnesses, hence need for synthetic vits and mins (in best case scenario)... who is at a loss?? All of us! because even those whom make money out of it all... they too die and wont take any of it with them AND would have left behind a legacy of illness, selfishness, lies, etc... so... food for thought. Pondering and introspection time!! Have a great day!
@@evasccl7846 thanks for that info. I wonder how many mass farming operations actually rest the land every 7 years?....or do they just plant another Roundup ready crop and keep pushing
@@paulwiederhold7629 In a consumer oriented and money loving... i can tell you most likely none of the bigs. Which could explain while all of a sudden certain tech people want to farm, why the genetically modified is in the picture and why there's so much interest in controlling the environment... if you do some research... you find more than you bargained for! Also, why were schools stopped from giving Food technology to students, and not allowing schools to plant veggies for kids to learn from it??? too many patterns and details to believe it is coincidence!! Have a great day!
Couldn't agree more! I've been eating low-carb for almost 2 years (on and off before then) and am down over 70 pounds and have never felt better.
It's better to leve salt on one day and. Sugar on the other
I promise it will help you a lot
I cut back on alot of sugar. I don't drink soda, or eat alot of sweets anymore
@@sumitbhardwaj561 I am a sugaraholic. I can't have even a little because then I'll want the whole thing. So that wouldn't work for me. So I have to abstain from it completely.
@@sandooch6465 that’s just crazy, you need to train your Brain to have more self control, otherwise you have never truly overcome the problem. Also some carbs are beneficial to you like sweet potato and brown rice. 🍠 everything in moderation.
Simplified : Intermittent fasting is good for your body. & soul
I do not drink alcohol. My eating period is 9 hours/day. I do not eat processed food, neither do I eat sugar. So my intake is small amounts of protein, lots of vegetables, one fruit portion and minimal carbs. I have not slept “properly” for over 25 years. My husband is kindness itself and rescued me from an abusive relationship in the late 90s and I thank God for him everyday. I am in a perpetual state of anxiety. I am unable to turn off fight or flight and am hyper-sensitive. I do my best in a difficult world.
One of the things that helped me with getting better quality of rest was going to bed early(by10pm) and also limiting my food intake after 7pm. Intermittent fasting(8-9hrs) also helped
10pm is so late for me. I'm in bed closer to 7 or at 7
Stopping eating 3 hours before laying down for the evening has been a life-changer so far a getting quality sleep is concerned, also low/high carb-cycling and proper food combining, all three of these are incredible for your health
@@evecarter617 I guess day or work schedule is important. If i were to go to bed at 7p I'd wake up at 3am and restless.
8 hours isn’t really intermittent fasting tho, you wanna do at least 16 hours. 8 hours is just what you don’t eat while you sleep. Add 8 hours to that and you’re good.
@@gahdzuwkz6647 Yeah I was about to say this lol, unless they mean 8-9 hours while they're awake
It happened to me long time ago and scared me so much so I made a decision that I will put my health first before anything else. It happened to me during a toxic relationship and I felt like no way out.
I called this years ago when I was a kid in the 90s. As a highly sensitive person I realized right away that I could not eat three meals a day. I couldn't and I didn't get it. So I didn't but as a kid your family pushes on you to do what they "know" to be best or what they have known without listening to you. All to often this is the case. This is not new to me about food, but its more than food its culture and definitely not being sensitive to yourself.
Fat salt cholesterol are good... Basically do the opposite of what everyone's mother told you to do in the 80's.
For me, I felt fatigue, tired and my mind was foggy. I exercise regularly, sleep 8 hours, eat healthy and still felt like crap. Turns out, I was low on testosterone. Started testosterone replace through my Endocrinologist and never felt better. For some men, these symptoms are due to low T levels.
This may be the answer! Thanks for sharing!
Believe it or not, some women too! I am a woman and my testosterone levels weren't even registering on a blood test. I had testosterone implants to help balance my hormones and feel so much better.
True, healthcare is all about the size of the medical systems billing administration, not about caring for health
Hi Hector, I'm in your situation exactly (before testosterone replacement) and can't decide whether to get tested or not. The internet tells me that symptoms of low Testosterone in men are low sex drive, less facial hair, less muscle growth, etc. I don't have any of these symptoms but do have crippling fatigue. Should I get T levels checked? How to know that one should get them checked? Did you encounter any of the above symptoms and got tested as a result of facing them?
Thanks for the response in advance!
@@adarshrajbhatt6557 I would encourage you to go get tested. At first, my Dr. Did not want to test me for low T based on my weight, age, and physical appearance. I still requested these T test and i was shockingly low. You know your body and mind better than anyone else, if you live a healthy lifestyle, and you feel extreme fatigue, brain fog, forgetfulness, etc. Then visit your Dr and have him test your blood for low t.
To the person reading this, please do not let your current reality stop you from getting what you want. Remember we are only at the bottom because we are looking for a way to get back up. Implant positive self-image inside you and I promise you will one day get what you want.
Cheers.
When you give up, that's when it begins.

For those struggling, try to set smaller goals. Just one step at a time. Make a list of what you would like to accomplish tomorrow, the week and working out just start small as well. Start with a walk with some stretches, literally 5 minutes a day, if you can do a little more great. Start to think before doing anything, like a walk, think of what am going to wear? And make a thoughtful decision for every step. Take the time to think what would I need to do in order to accomplish MY goal. Each goal at a time. That's the truth. Let's help each other be better collectively. We need to stop being a receiver and start being a giver to both yourself and those around you. Just one day! I'll start doing this today is all, along with repetition and I promise you, you will see changes to not only your physical health but mental health. That will open doors because of your ability to think becomes clearer then where you are. I hope this helps anyone. Good luck and don't worry about time, be in the moment.

I had great results from the one meal a day diet ( not actually one meal but all eating per day is done in one hour ) I felt far more energetic and I also feel a hell of a lot better by cutting out caffeine, I drink green tea , green tea & lemon , peppermint tea , calamine tea only at night and peach & orange tea .
I never done it for weight loss although I did loose some weight , I done it because one day at work I looked in my lunchbox and thought this cant go on eating rubbish everyday
You know there is caffeine in tea right? Just pointing out if you didn't know since you said you cut out caffeine.
Tea isn't good for us. Should cut that as well
@@RanOnReaper tea is ancient medicine don’t spread nonsense there are thousands of different kinds
This is sooo true!! I use to be so sick!! High blood pressure, border line diabetic... last year, I seriously felt like I was dying. My sleep was awful... I wasn't exercising at all... I was over 220 lbs. And I am only 5'2.. 👀 I took matters into my own hands and made a complete turn around!! I snack lightly but basically have 1 meal maybe 2 a day. My meals have naturally gotten smaller. I just can't eat as much anymore since I cut out sugar (most breads included.) I now weigh under 190 and the weight is falling off!!! Everytime I go to get on a scale, I am shocked!! IF I have bread, it is the Keto kind with fiber based plants, and I may have 1 piece with my eggs over easy on top. I refrigerate my rice for 12 hours before eating it because it lowers the glycemic index by a LOT. I now love my eggs with green leafy veggies maybe a bit of tomato! I look at sugar and refined sugar now like legalized crack. It is addictive and it is literally KILLING people!! 👎👎👎

That's amazing! My I ask, about the rice, when you say a lot, just how much. I'm keto and track my food so I'm curious how much the sugar is lowered. Thanks
I eat a very small breakfast with coffee and then don’t eat until 5-7pm and then I eat a full meal and I’m good. I have lost 50+ lbs in the last 4 months by sticking to this
If I were you, I'd listen to full Jordan Peterson lectures. They're free on RUclips. Healthy eating coupled with healthy goals, finding your life purpose, passions & hobbies, send you on the road to a life well lived. Dr. Jordan Peterson really gave me a leg up, and hope for more from life, with lessons I never got from my parents or teachers. Just set aside some time to listen to the imparted wisdom, and make the change 😊
I'm intrigued. Could you give me an example of something he taught you that your Parents didn't and perhaps should have in their role as a Parent?

I am doing the right thing regarding the food I consume. My body did it on its own. My body rejected all meat..I am now a vegetarian. I don't drink fruit juice but eat fruit. I drink mainly tea, black and herbal water and sometimes milk. I walk with my dogs every day come rain or shine. The only drug I took were sleeping tablets..but not anymore. I don't touch alcohol. I don't touch packet foods..or ready meals. Pasta, rice, noodles, porridge, granola or eggs, are my breakfast choices..no cereals. All the above, including plenty of fresh vegetables..were a natural choice. I find myself eating vegetables I once didn't like..and enjoying them. It's like my body is talking to me..so I listen. My snacks are usually toast or nuts. What can I say ? Its good to know I am doing the right thing without realising it. I don't stress about anything, because I have nothing to stress about. We create stress..and at 72..I have done some in my life, but a time came when I told myself..no.more. We control our own destiny..no one else. I make my own choices, I don't let others make them for me. It took me some time to learn that.

I have been intermittent fasting for 3 years. I don't eat anything before Noon. Only water, and black coffee. I cut my sugar intake by 90%. Nothing past 8:00pm. Except water. No fast food in at least 2 years. Results? At 6'2" I started at 286lbs (obese). I am now a solid 220lbs. Lost 9 inches off my waist, as well as having put on 10lbs of muscle. Without hunger. No gym membership. I sold my car and bought a bicycle. I am 60, and am in better shape than most 30 year old's. More strength, greater endurance, with a naturally higher testosterone level. (tested). No hormone injections, or any additives at all. Only healthy food. I am still getting trimmer month by month, without losing muscle. Libido? Well, I don't want to be called toxic. 😁 If you asked me, during the 23 years that I walked around obese, to make those changes, I would have fought tooth and nail against them. Now, I wish I had a time machine to go back and change things earlier! Plain truth? It is harder to live obese and unhealthy, than it is to live healthy. Trust me, I have walked thousands of miles in both those shoes. Peace and health!
Hi Chris from England! Thanks for sharing your experience! It’s hard to change bad habits and you have successfully overcome....I tip my hat sir! I have been suffering from lack of energy for a while now. I will definitely follow your example and try fasting now.....ta!😁 x
On a similar Journey. 6’1 and a half currently about 276 and down from 304. I’ve been eating maybe twice nothing before noon and fast atleast 18 hrs. Similar protocol wish I would have stuck with it 3 years ago when I started dabbling in keto and IF. Goal is to be at 20% BF by 40 and got about 8 months to do it.
Guess I'll have to try fasting, are you following any specific diet?
I have always been that guy that never ate breakfast and I usually have a hard time to get the amount of calories that I need in a day (especially since I am very active).
People have always told me that this was unhealthy and that I should eat more and have breakfast and what not, but those idiots never saw that I was never tired, never hungry, always had laser sharp focus (people tell me this all the time) and that I am always so calm and controlled. They all don't understand that I am free from the food addiction and tiredness from eating too much. My absolute best days, in regards of performance, are always the days where I don't eat or only 1 meal later that day. Academically I have found that I perform best on an exam when I didn't eat for at least 8 hours beforehand. In the morning I always feel amazing and I only get the urge or desire to eat way in the afternoon.
I once heard that the idea of eating breakfast being important came from cereal companies and their commercials trying to boost sales with telling us that 'breakfast is the most important meal of the day'. What a joke. Please tell me then why I always feel worse after eating in the morning instead of not eating?
Do You drink coffee?

Eating lowww carb, not eating before bed, and fasting from dinner to lunch the next day has removed all my depression and increased my joy
I was like this for a while. Then I changed my while daily routine. I started to sleep, wake up on time. I started to make sure I ate all my 4 meals strictly on time, same timing everyday. I workout at least 1 hour alternate days, push ups, sit-ups, pull ups and squats during the evening. After a month or so, I started to gain weight and started to feel much much better with each passing day. Now I feel great and I'm fit and healthy. I think mainly, you just have to change your routine.

@@Eamon597 you are asian. Please use some common sense, all of you look younger.
Look at all the bodybuilders and (especially) strongmen, they look extremely old and exhausted in their faces. Most guys in the gym that are huge just look tired and have unhealthy, saggy skin.
Youre just an exception to the rule.
This is me. Literally. Used to be so energetic. Now I'm 42 and all I ever want to do is lay on the couch.
You are probably insulin resistant or type 2 diabetic... and you don't even know it. You may also have liver issues as well. I had the same problem being tired all the time for years. About 6 months ago I completely changed my diet (cut the carbs out almost completely) and started fasting. Made a substantial difference for me. I think I have NAFLD and it seems to be healing now. By the end of the first 2 months of changing my diet, I lost 35 pounds. It's going to take more time, but I have already made some incredible improvements in only 6 months time.
As a diabetic, this explains a lot in the way I feel most of the time. Especially the cortisol part. That's probably explains why some days I just have high sugar levels all the time, and I'm doing nothing different. It's probably because I have stress.
Heard that a 0 carbs diet really helps... Instead,.ore good fats,like avocados,linseeds,salmons....lots of veges...you can reverse your diabet,...
@@Happy-tc2jt You can't reverse Type 1 diabetes.
Dr. Neil Bernard reverse type 2 diabetes with diet alone, you should go check it out..
@@Bee_Bill287 I'm type 1
@@Mawds69 then that is different, although a whole foods plant based diet will improve you dramatically. there is a lot of bad science out there, and not all diets work the same fore everyone. i believe the whole foods diet works the best for everyone as this really does go back to our closest earth ancestor the bonobo monkey.
overthinking is the worst too
I'm 71. 18 months ago I weighed 205 (I'm 5'9"). Always tired, ate too much bad stuff. I put myself on a plan I designed. 11 a.m.: 2 eggs, 1 p.m: one cup of cantaloupe, berries, red grapes, 3 p.m. lunch salad plus a protein like tuna, BBQ chicken, etc. 5 p.m. dark chocolate with some kind of nuts, 7 p.m. dinner w/a couple servings of green/orange veggies and a protein. No dairy, no whole grains, beans or legumes other than peanuts, no alcohol. Bed at 10:30. Walk 2-3 miles 7 days a week. Work 5 hours a day. Today I weigh 159 pounds. I wake up between 6 and 7 naturally, have no fatigue except for the pleasant tiredness, well-earned, shortly before bed. Also, in any given week, I choose to eat some sweets like a brownie or a piece of cake, candy like M&Ms or Jolly Ranchers, or I have a hot dog or some fried chicken strips and French fries and about twice a month drink a 7 oz soda. All of the junk is carefully portioned and is a necessary part of my eating plan. If I said "no more sweets", that would not be sustainable for me. My cholesterol has also gone from 205 to 152 and I feel great.
Doing this (fasting) and after hearing Franco Columbo’s recollections of how some silver and golden bodybuilders ate made it click in me. He said they ate nothing but high fat and protein meals 6 days a week and splurged on Sunday. He would incorporate high fiber vegetables, too. Their bodies would learn how to utilize their insulin more efficiently by doing this. I have one huge and diverse bowl of salad and veggies with 5-6 eggs/groundbeef/fish and all the Ranch or Italian dressing I want. It comes out to about 1200-1800 cal depending on my mood, and I finish it within the span of a coulle of hours. Ill throw in a 1-2 day fast or a one day anything I want day every two weeks here and there. Ive easily lost 25 lbs (im 5’4’’ mesomorph male that was at 170lbs) in 2.5 months. I went through the sugar/ processed food heebeejeebees for about 2 weeks, but if I eat that meal on time, I have 0% temptation around junk. My sleep went from 1-2 naps and 8 hour sleeps to 6 hours and up and hyper af. My concentration levels are through the roof for reading and self growth. Im off of bp medicine and sleep apnea is gone. My second covid recovery was much faster, not only because of my previous antibodies, but also because my high infflamation markers, insulin and hypertension were way lowered.
Freaking awesome! I have some of the same issues you had. Crippling fatigue for no real reason (weight is good, etc), sleep apnea, multiple naps. STILL haven't found wtf is wrong. Cpap didnt help. Now what??! grrr
Started eating 2 meals/day. Stopped sugar and cut back radically on carbohydrates.
Also, started dog walking for those who cannot walk their own. Do this for, on average 2-3 hours daily.
Dropped from 88 to 77kg and feel so much better.
I'm a 65yo,very active man.Retired,I enjoy surfing,walking,and generally having fun on the beach. I eat once a day,in the evening around 5pm. I have a beet smoothie in the morning, w/ coffee, and Apple cider vinegar. I drink lots of water,green tea during the day. I don't smoke, don't drink,or use drugs. I have unlimited energy,and sleep like a log at night. This works for me,just sayin..
I had quadruple bypass, two hip replacements over a 14 month period in 2020-2021.
I was diabetic, high cholesterol and lipids.
I cut all sugar, and only bake with monk fruit sugar. If I want sweet, I make keto deserts with monk fruit.
I eat all organic meats, vegies, some fruit.
I two months I lost 50 pounds, my cholesterol is normal, lipids normal, blood sugar under control and normal. I've hiked for years, and now I'm going further. Feel younger and I don't need a nap everyday. I'm 63.
Many cultures around the world had perfected agriculture but did not over eat like we do in the west. No negativity, just saying! Good info nonetheless
I'm a personal fitness trainer and suffer from depression. For years I've been tired just like was talked about in this video. My doctors determined that I have Sleep Apnea. I've been on a CPAP machine every night for over a year. It's really helped me manage the day, and my workouts are much better.
I was thinking this. Thanks for your comment. My sister has sleep apnea and I may have too. I know I snore so loudly I've woke myself up.
How old are you?
Depression is a bitch, get well brother
I am 57. I grew up with sinus infections and colds every year. Actually was taught to fear the cold. “Don’t you go outside with your head wet, or with no jacket, you’ll catch your death of cold”. Such hogwash. I had a sinus infection or head cold most of my life.
4 years ago I started eating healthy. Started the Wim Hof Method. Started cycling and walking barefoot. Bought a pair of kangaroo skin toe shoes. Life has not been the same since. I have not been sick the last 4 years. Inflammation, dehydration and lack of sleep is a huge problem in our culture. Sugar is a killer. Feel the best I have ever felt. Sleep, correct breathing and cold showers. Life changer
Why cold showers? I've herd of this, what does it do? What has it done for you? 🙏🙂
@@A.777-p8m when you do the breathing cycles of the Wim Hof method that oxygenates your body. Then when you take a cold shower afterwards it shocks the arteries in your veins and gives them a great work out. Therefore sending more oxygen to your blood. Which intern lowers inflammation. You should try his method. It truly works.
I have given up sugar and wheat (as well as potatoes and rice). Never felt so great on every level. No cravings, weight falling off. 4 months into the rest of my life and I’m not going back to the old life. Ever.
but what about pizza?
@@Zikliv lol. There are keto versions of pizza where the crust is not made of bread. Google fat head pizza. Or different recipes for low carb pizza.
I started intermittent fasting a couple years ago, and for the most part, I just naturally do it everyday now. My problem isn't always feeling hungry or gaining too much weight, however, I now have the opposite problem. I'm only hungry once or twice a day, but in that window, I eat very satiating foods with a lot of fat and protein, and a little unprocessed carbs. Because I feel satiated so easily with the food I eat, I find it hard to eat enough. I feel better than I did eating 3 meals a day with processed carbs with each meal, but I'm always losing weight. I've been underweight my entire adult life. When I was at my most "normal" weight, it was all water weight and belly fat and I felt awful.
I have a very hard time building muscle, and I work out and actually go to a personal trainer twice a week to make sure I'm on point with my workouts. I get stronger, but never get bigger. I consume as much protein as my appetite will allow. However, all this only seems to cause me to slowly lose more weight when I'm already on the cusp of being underweight (I'm currently 148lbs and I'm 6'2). It's hard to balance wanting to feel good, mentally and physically, with feeling like I'm slowly withering away. Although the weight I lose seems to all be body fat, or water storage, I can't seem to gain the muscle to replace the weight I lose. Most people watching videos like this seem to want to lose weight. Any tips for, not just maintaining weight, but gaining it while eating this way?
Perhaps see a professional - but if it were me, I’d be eating even though I don’t feel like it (as in choosing nutrition over feelings, since you’re wanting to add weight.) I believe this is what body builders do - in their bulking phases (many also use steroids, which carry too many risks - so don’t do that) but there are things they do on their bulking phases to add more calories in and they just eat, even though they don’t feel like it.
Because you’re so tall - it’s always harder for tall people. There may be some things you are doing that suppress appetite too - so look into that - things like drinking coffee, or there may be something else..
Keep Moving!!! Find the strength to motivate yourself to be better!!! Pray or meditate or anything that will change your mindset!!! We got this!!!
Don't shorten your lifespan. If we waste time it will waste us.
growing up (even at a very young age), i never ate breakfast. No matter who was trying to force me, i couldn't; made me too tired for the day ahead. Most of the time i was even uninterested in lunch, rather took my time to socialize, smoke (I know, i know...hush) by the time supper hit and i got home i was actually hungry and ate well but not enough to gorge myself and always had a spike of energy around an hour after.
FF to Feb 2019 i was way overweight, menopausal and weighed 206; i immediately started the KETO way of eating and by sept of 2019 i was down to 138 lbs. It reset my whole system with little to no exercise aside from gardening.
Never ate bread again....picked up eating potatoes, corn and the occasional ice cream and other things not on the keto plan for 3 years......i've only gained back 20 and i am on my way to losing that. It's incredible what they teach as the standard american diet. they want you dead early. period.
May I ask how old you are? I'm 75. I have widespread osteoarthritis so I can't exercise the way I used to. I've gained at least 25 pounds in the past few years. I really want to lose some weight just to be more comfortable. Do you think keto would work for me?
What an incredible man. Thank you, Jordon Peterson, for all that you are.
I had fatigue so bad i'd lay awake looking up at the ceiling for hours because I had no energy.
I didn't know it but I was having a bad inflammatory response from eating vegetable/seed oils. After I started using mostly lard and cut sugar I feel like an entirely different person. I can't imagine how college would have gone if I was able to read more than two words at a time.
If i may ask, did you also experience a 'weird' feeling in your chest? As if something was not 'right'?
Have you ever gotten that inflammatory response from chicken?
there are elements within society who know everything and are taking advantage of those who "believe"
Keto + Time Restricted Feeding is the only thing that has worked for me longterm. Not only was I able to loose weight and stay thin, I had so much more energy. I never got tired and was never sick.
I believe my diet is killing me mentally and physically. I am asking for prayers to help me learn proper nutrition and to give me the desire and motivation to make the changes in my life. I don’t want to live like this any longer, I believe in the power of prayer. Please pray for me.
Pray won't do shit. It's about moving and doing it.
I speak from experience god sens sometimes times.

God told us to eat vegetables and natural foods ( unadulterated by processing and chemical additives). Educate yourself about what you put in your body. The default all around you is loads of poison! You have to take controll over what goes IN. Just like God tells us to have self-control over our minds, your body is a gift to be cherished via self-control. Change your brain-chemistry by the foods you eat!! EXPECT pushback from your mind while detoxing from poison!! Food is medicine and healing- it turns on/off genes. You want good, cancer-fighting genes to stay ON, by eating the foods that talk to these genes!!:
Meats from animals not tortured ( =high in stress hormones) and fed original diets. Beef only from grass-fed cows! Chicken from pasture-raised organic hens. Pasture raised eggs. Fish: smaller kinds and WILD caught- NOT FARMRAISED!
Vegetables: if you eat the skin get them organic. Same with fruit. Limit fruits b/c of high fructose content ( 1x/day). All non-organic and GMO produced foods are grown with pesticides, which end up in your colon and destroy the good bakteria, that help you digest your food properly. Over time your colon wears out from the pesicide influence and will get sluggish ( can lead to gastroparesis, end- stage of a disease stemming from processed foods, lack of vegetables ( fiber) and consumption of harmful chemicals). Understand the difference between Good and (very) Bad fats. Good fats: grass-fed butter, coconut oil, extra-virgin olive oil, First Cold Press in dark GLASS bottle, organic ( most other ones are stretched with other oils). BAD, inflammation-causing oils: ex. Margarine, Vegetable oil, canola oil, safflower oil and otheres; fats from grain-fed cattle. These harmful oils/fats are very common in cookies, baked foods, and mayonnaise, as well as restaurant food.
DO NOT EAT WHEAT regularly and limit other ( bad) carbs. Reduce bad carbs ( processed flour products, pasta, crackers, bagles, breads, baked goods) to special occasions. Eat potatoes cooled off. Research: yes, there is flourless bread. READ & watch:
Wheat Belly by William Davis; it will rock your taste buds!
You Tube: Dr. Berg is awesome!! Know all keto principals and apply them regularly. The main point is to get your insulin-response down by limiting carbs from starch, increase carbs from greens and consume more ( good) fats and good protein. This will reset your cravings.
Dr. Mark Hyman ( books).
Practice intermitten fasting! 15-18 hours a day, two meals, no eating at least 4-5 hours before bed. Take a 30 min walk every day. Do some moderate strength training 5x week, altering muscle groups.
Applying all the above, I'm in better shape than in my highschool years, (weigh 12 lbs less, in mid-50ies, size 4).
Dial yourself in, step by step over a period of 1 month. Eliminate 1 bad habit, replace with 1 good habit. It works if you start with anything above. Blessings:)
Ill pray for you sir. Also, use the tools at hand. You know which ones.
Never had fatigue until I came here to Chicago and hit bottom of the socio-economic scale and STAYED THERE for the last 15 years! The life I've experienced here has been HELLACIOUS! And at the same time I hit my 60's and I am now in my 70's and I just kept aging and aging. Depression. Anxiety. Then Covid! A real downward spiral! But a Type 2diagnosis was a major wake up call--I started throwing all the crap out of my fridge and pantry and got real with a healthy diet and upped the home yoga, exercise (can't go to the gym during the Pandemic) and walking, walking, walking everyday. It's so much better now!
Hope you are still moving forward in a positive way. I’m a 70 yr old home yogi too. Stay strong 💪
I've had no carbs for 6 weeks: 15 lbs lost (I wasn't huge), mental acuity back, lots more energy, better sleep and in a good mood. Just imagine if we all did that?

Lose weight.. period laws of thermal dynamics..
You are an extremely lucky person in that case. NEVER cut out carbs completely.
@@melb5996 I have done so and now I'm quite tired after 4+ months, so starting up with a few again...
It's not sustainable long term...nor will it be pleasant indefinitely....carbs in high amounts daily is the prolbrem along with constant snacking .......best advice if u like keto do it 4-5 days a week then have 2-3 days where u consume carbs or eat what u like within reason....a cheeseburger for example is so overly hyped as bad ..even with the bun hamburgers range from 40-50grams of carbs witch is pretty low if u skip the fry's and soda it's not bad at all ...perfect for a day u want carbs ...don't eat multiple meals and don't consume high amounts of carbs and sugar daily u will feel great ....if u exercise or are active regularly u will need carbs or some on some level ...if ur not active at all cutting them down is way easier and u will need way less of them...u can loose jus as much weight eating 2 low fat 12 inch cold subs a day vs 2 keto meals....ur activity level is what makes the difference...I've done both lost jus as much on both...I find keto is easier when I'm not active...and can go longer not eating....if I'm active the low-fat turkey hoagie is easier and more enjoyable but can go jus as long not eating when I'm active........having a variety and listening to ur body's wants is important....ur body always gives warning signs if u notice it
@@gman5069 thanks! I'm on my 7th month of pure keto 30 carbs a day, 2MAD, but I don't count macros etc and I don't beat myself up if I cheat once in a while. 24 lbs down, 5 more to go, feeling good, 72 years old. do my 10k steps a day, I'm so looking forward to BREAD.
To add on to our hunter-gathering days, as mentioned we rarely had the opportunity to feast so we would eat everything we could when we had the chance. One type of food in particular would present itself on rare occasions; ripe fruits. When humans would come across a tree with ripe fruits they would feast like never before because you just had to be there at the right place and time to get to eat such delicious carbs. The thing is, DNA doesn't forget so we still compulse over carbs - the problem being that nowadays they are refined, hence unhealthy. So why do you think we go through our whole McDonald's order and still make it go down with an xlarge soft drink? DNA just doesn't forget ;) - PS ; read that in a great book called Sapiens
Love it when videos like this say one relatively unknown study proves something…
i am a 41 yr old male with aspergers, adhd and depression, i let my depression control me for 39 yrs im 6ft 3, and weighed in at an average of 11 stone but last year i decided enough is enough, ive been working out hard almost daily since, ive now gone up to 18 stone in just over 1 year and i feel like im 21 again, my depression has never returned and im completely med free. Routine kept me alive when i was empty. I suggest anyone who has confidence based depression to try exercise and routine
You managed to put on 8 stone of muscle mass within a year?
Don’t let people label you and control u.
nice video! this gave me vision on what i need to do next in order to fix my fatigue problem. thankyou. 😊
Medical Medium protocols helped me tremendously
Make sure to be in calorie deficit for weight loss, track your macros, drink a lot of water. Be disciplined and with all this and proper exercise you'll not be fatigued. If you are still fatigued then your brain is not getting enough rest. Try meditating. Good luck whoever is suffering, there's always light at the end of the tunnel.
This makes so much sense now. Thanks for this video 🙏🏼
These are the kind of videos that get my likes. Very informational and a kind of life hack.
But of course , it doesn't always mean that the more protein you take , the better you will get .
If you eat too much protein , indeed it would have bad influence on your body . Not only fatigue of organ , kidney , but also it could cause obesity as well
Before you implementing these concepts you have to search well how much you have to take each nutrients .
Again , carbs is not the substances you have to totally avoid .
It depends on what type of carbs you take. The carbs from the vetetables (i.e fiber) are okay, but all the other types of carbs are not necessary.
And you are not abe shinzo
@@dn4244 For me, sugar and processed carbs are like valium.
Each to their own but JP is hardly a model for the entirety of humanity
Simplified : Intermittent fasting is good for your body. & soul
By giving up processed sugar and focusing on more raw foods and intermittent fasting, Ive lost some of that belly fat. Life is stressful in general but when I ride my bike everyday I notice the more i do that, the more stamina I have available.
I am light, I am love, i am truth, I am... universal mantra...
Last 5 months, Ive cut carbs down to like 1/3.
Have not felt this alive in over 2 decades. Wish i wouldve dumped carbs sooner. Carbs had been holding me back like forever.

What
Wow! Just today I was thinking about my own regular diet and how I can improve it and drop the sugary foods. Informative video.
It’s been amazing for me this past year. I was 180-185, started a new job the first week of this year and as of this morning I’m at 133. I must mention that I have always been very active in action sports since age 5, I’m 37 now. Training very hard in BMX Racing from 5-16. Then transferred to other action sports and continued. But I not only got more active by starting a more physically demanding job, but I work in a produce department of my local grocery store. So I went from eating two meals a day of whatever I wanted to lunch being a “snack”, usually light like a fruit cup or a protein plate (single serving of grilled chicken breast, Colby Jack cheese cubes and half sliced strawberries as the treat. Then eating a decent meal of whatever after I get home. I’m the leanest I’ve been since I was a teenager. I don’t even need to flex in order to see veins popping out everywhere. A video that intrigued me, as well. Joe Rogan had a podcast with a Jiu Jitsu Champ by the name of Mikey Musumeci. There is a segment where he talks about his training and dieting routine. The man trains all day, doesn’t eat any meals until dinner. Intermittent fasting, followed by a big meal. The joke being that all he eats is pizza and pasta. Going as far as to hand make everything before cooking it and owning a pizza oven. Point being, I ate like shit and more often. Intermittent fasting paired with less food or lighter versions of it, helped me lose 50 lbs in less than a year and now I’m motivated with a goal of hitting 120 lbs then build up muscle.
EDIT: I must admit, physically I’m the happiest I have been in a really long time and my mentality is shifting towards positive in a lot of areas of my life. I have more confidence. People are noticing a shift in not only my physic but my mood. Though I am happily married, women (customers and coworkers) are taking notice, as well.
Quitting caffiene was my biggest fixer, I still get tired but as soon as I start doing stuff the amount of energy I have when I start doing it is so much more than when I was constantly caffinated your body burns up so much energy even when your just sitting because your heart rate increases and your flight or fight chemicals are firing off now I know I have a full tank of fuel and I decide when to use it
This is most informative video I've seen on human body and food. I've watched so many idealistic ones with people just pushing their beliefs not actual good Science.
And good on you for not making this not a fear based video like alot are
Joe Rogan knows more than he let's on on his podcast, many influential people do
Eating less gluten helped me, meditation and Wim Hof method.

Awesome content.
I think about this 3 meals a day a lot, and tell my family they don't need all the food they eat. I eat a high protein shake with spinach, seeds and beets by 6 am every morning, then I eat a meal around 3:pm. I'm happy with a yogurt and fruit, sardines, a salad... my weight has stayed the same for 5 years. I do not nap but I go to bed early.
Once you are in this fatigue state it seems to be extremely hard to get out, probably as hard as to get off drugs is my guess. Also money makes it extremely difficult too.
My body can’t even take 3 meals a day. I’m barely eating two
Shoot for 1 meal/day ... that is the expression of health.
Same here!
Tell that to the Ethiopian people ..
@@franciscoaceituno4217 why would I do that fckn weirdo. They barely get 1
Sounds like my bestie. I need 2 or 3 or I don't function very well. Amazing how different people can be!
I have been saying this for years. I have a big family, 5 kids, I was saying to my wife that in the wild we probably would not eat every day, at least not big meals or meat. We would probably survive on seeds and veg day to day, but every now and then you would get a kill/trap an animal, then the family would feast and get all that protein and fat from the meat, but then it may be another week or so until you got another big feast, maybe a rabbit or bird or 2 through the week if you were lucky or lived in the right areas. Also, maybe less importantly, we would most likely not bathe in warm water, at least not in the UK, we would be in cold streams, lakes or the sea. Personally I have a cold shower every morning and think it is amazing for body and mind, when you can push yourself to do that every day without fail, there is not much you can't do.
i used to think like this, then i remembered that hey, those people had horrible shitty lives and would spend most of the day doing nothing trying to conserve energy so that they don't starve, they didn't go to work 12 hours a day, exercise, socialize and commute. they huddled in their hut and hoped they live to see another day. My main inspiration for your line of thinking was this tribe in africa that eats every other day, but when i looked more into it much later i realized that hey these people spend less energy in a day than i do before lunch. Still not eating until you are full for every meal is probably a good idea. just don't be one of those parents that pushes their ideals on children and then they end up malnourished or short and stubby because they were half starved their whole childhood. Cold showers are good tho and also save energy which is always nice with these damn bills getting higher and higher with the energy crisis slowly on the rise
@@Grancigul ha yeah don't worry they aren't starving, 3 of them do kickboxing and 1 is a black belt already at 11 years old and built like a brick shithouse, as the old phrase goes. I do think you may have a point though, modern life may be much more demanding in different ways
What about the fact that carbs raise serotonin levels which is needed to later transform into melatonin for better sleep?
Eat liver. Its loaded with tryptophan ..
Stop thinking in terms of studies ... think in terms of natural simple solutions. Who cares about serotonin or melatonin? Do you digest the food or the conscience inside you? Do you repair your body consciously during sleep? No, no and no. The body knows ... just give it the nutrients it needs and stay away from or manage stress.
I used to eat very few carbs for years, then when I started getting more carbs I felt better. I think it's important everyone read a book called diet cults. Carbs are neutral.
It's amazing I completely understand this now after being forced into fasting
I have been diagnosed with bi-polar 2, adhd, epilepsy, depression, anxiety, mania, auditory and visual hallucinations, I’ve had suicidal tendencies, I’m very prone to night terrors, and on top of all that I’ve been a heavy addict to a number of drugs for about 12 years (I just turned 28). I’ve been sober from my favorite things for about 6 months now (fentanyl, dilaudid, ketamine, benzos, cocaine, synthetic acid, and a few other random things). I hit rock bottom, but it was incredibly difficult to get off those opiates cold turkey, I felt like I was going insane and I wanted to kill myself but I was under supervision. But things are a lot better, so much less to worry about, I’m able to actuall
y strive towards what I really want in life. Not always just focusing on getting more. The shitty thing though is that I’m on so many medications and I have been for a long time. Bi-polar med, anti convulsion med, anxiety med, adderall, and suboxone to curb my opiate addiction. Most of these 3 times per day, the others twice. I’ve been on most of these meds for a long time. And my doctors said I most likely won’t be able to ever get off some of them. :,( I wanna know what it feels like to feel normal, I don’t remember.
I will pray for good health for your mind, body and soul. Jesus is King of Kings, Lord of Lord's; nothing is impossible for Him. Men are created in God's Image.
You know your body best, not any doctor. I would never accept an answer such as "you can never stop taking these pills, or you can never walk again, talk again etc... those things are possible or even probable outcomes, but not the goal. We should all focus our attention and aim for the best possible outcomes derived from the highest good...
Which can only be obtained through faith in Jesus Christ, truthfulness, hard work, and a collective effort from yourself and those who love/ surround you- to promote, critique, and work toward becoming the best version of yourself.
To quote the Holy Bible:
"Do not lie to one another, seeing that you have put off the old self with its practices and have put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge after the image of its Creator."

Carbs…. My weakness 😭. It’s almost like I know cutting out bread and fries will make me feel better but I just love them so much 😕. I’m not over weight, I take in a lot of protein, I’m very active BUT I also feel fatigued way more than I should.
Look into mold and environmental stresses on body (flouride in water, chemicals in home products, etc)
Carbs ..the right ones are your friends.
Right video, right day, right moment.
I was on a high eggs low carb diet but I started to really feel the downside of too many eggs so I switched back to bread lunch and felt super tired a week later. Now I'm on a soup diet and I'm energetic again. Don't do bread, kids.
Soup diet? As in out of a can? That's terrible for you, too. Sodium is a killer. Fresh veggies, fruit, and water would be far superior than soup. If you aren't a vegetarian, add fish and chicken in. You'll feel great. Good luck.
@@JoeJacksonGT3 Oh, yeah no it's freshly made soup with fresh ingredients and meat. Low sodium too (only innate salt in the meat, stock and other ingredients). No canned things for sure!
What is soup diet
Do you have soup throughout the day and which soups
@@rajkuma921 I just meant that I replaced my lunches and suppers with soups instead of other carb free diets. I make my own soups from fresh ingredients, whatever I find would taste good. But two of my fav are (adjusted) Onion Soup and (adjusted) Suppa Toscane. They're both adjusted to not have carbs. I.e. just leave out the bread, flour and potatoes.
drink more water bro and cut the fat out of your diet if you want to be 4% body fat like me.
Excellent Information, thank you.
I finally understand why i avoid sweets at work. Thank you!
Huge difference between Simple & Complex Carbs!
