I had my gall bladder removed a few years ago, do I need to do anything significantly differently? Are there any additional things I have to take into account when trying to lose weight? Also, I have been swimming as my exercise, and am putting in one mile to begin with, then doing 5 X 100 meter sprints after the mile, to try to get some HIT in; is that the correct approach?
Dear Dr. Ekberg, thank you so much for this extremely clear and thorough discussion of a very complex matter. No one, and I do mean no one, explains these important concepts better than you do. You are definitely at the top of my long list of UA-cam influencers regarding all aspects of physical health and wellness! And today, I am especially grateful for your mention of how cortisol leads to a craving for carbs. I have a major problem w inescapable stress & consequent sleep deprivation that i believe is preventing me from losing weight. And now, thanks to you, I realize that every time I find myself desiring carbs again, despite my nearly eliminating them for months now, it is merely an indication that my cortisol is up. And so, per your suggestion, I will turn to meditation instead of Stevia at these unexpected times, lol, and perhaps I will finally find a solution there. So thank you again, so much, and I wish many blessings and blue skies to you and yours. And also, congrats on the anticipated expansion of your practice and reach. I live in North Carolina, literally within a days drive away, so perhaps we will meet in person someday.🤞
Me personally, I started losing the most weight after reading the book Woman’s weight loss secrets: the unspoken truth, a few things you are mentioning in this video are also in the book
I started IF and OMAD with a Keto diet Dec. 29th for health reasons. Not only has my health improved to the point I’m no longer on medications that I believe were killing me, I’ve lost 50 lbs! What’s amazing is that I’m 82 years old! I have my life back. I started my journey at 207 lbs. and my current weight is 157 lbs. I’m 5’7” tall. If I’d had this information earlier in life, what a difference it would have made.
Thank You so much Dr. I have noted your instructions Here is the Action Plan: 1. Cut Sugar 2. Reduce Carbs 3. Exercise 4. Meditate 5. Protein 6. Add Fat - Keto 7. Fasting
I have done every diet possible. Since I met this chap on line, all this invaluable info has changed my life for the better. I did exactly what he suggested, and wow my fat just began to disappear - I cut carbs, sugar and ate 2 meals a day, working on a 1 meal a day - will get there. Thank you to this wonderful health teacher.
I am from Pakistan and have been struggling for the past 25 years to reduce weight. Since my childhood, I was obesse as our traditional meals are high in carbs. I used to reduce weight but i was stuck in Yo Yo, reduce and gain. Thank you, Dr. Sten Ekberg, for educating us, I started to work on your given information during Covid-lock down and it worked lost 20Kgs and to my wonder, I am not gaining weight anymore for now past 2 years. I feel so happy and confident. For good health, my whole family is followng the same. We from Pakistan are praying for you and wish you all the best with your clinic.
it is very difficult to cut off the rice completely with pakistani or eastern food (Thai, Indian, Chinese, Khmer, etc), you have to make your own "cauliflower rice" or turn on spinach, eggplants and all those wonderful vegetables. Good luck to you !
That's awesome if you can do it anyone can just follow the principal of this doctor because I love how he breaks everything down and simplify the bad and the good food and even puts in exercises nd meditation
I am doing 80-90% of what you teach in this video. Have lost from 305 to 250. Up and down but gradually losing weight and lowering blood sugar. A1C was 13 and now below 11. I know, still too high but getting there. I am 74 and 5'8". I love that you greet us as health champions. It is a tremendous struggle. I truly appreciate all you do to help save our lives. Ms Pat from southern Indiana
Congrats to you! I have also dramatically improved my A1c in 11 months . Down to prediabetic now so still trying to get under that level. Age 63 and feel 20 years younger, lost 61 lbs so far and .y triglycerides have some down from 1200 to 200. Never looking back to my old way of eating sugar and processed foods.
Thank you Patricia Nunez for sharing your story and helping inspire others. It is indeed a struggle for everyone. I am thrilled that you have seen such great results. Keep it up! 😄
It all boils down to this. Make a healthy habit a routine and your routine will become a life style. Focus on how you will continue the journey not the reward for finishing the race. Be patient, take responsibility, accept humility. Trust the process. Always remember To have a healthy body you MUST have a healthy MIND first.
Well said.. consistency is the name of the game and re assessing one’s capabilities every 5 years once we are a bit older and making those adjustments to avoid injury
Thank you Dr. Ekberg for saving my mother's life. Thru watching many many many of your videos you have inspired me to become educated regarding health and I have brought my 81 y.o. mother from the brink of a miserable painful death to losing over 40lbs dropping A1c down to 4.8 and getting rid of multiple prescriptions. She is now able to walk again. Our shared journey continues... You and your channel are a blessing to my family.
I hope to do the same with my T2 diabetic parents, but they aren’t ready yet even though I showed how this works and educate as much as I can when they ask questions about how I lost 60 pounds and maintained for 3 years…
How does it feel Doctor to be out here changing lives every day??? You Legend!!! I already lost 45 lbs/20kg with keto and intermittent fasting/prolonged fasting! This stuff is LITERALLY life changing!!!
@@Jason-cz3bvtry reading a good book when you reach 18th hr of fasting it will get your mind of thinking how hungry you are, read as much as you can couple hr or more, and see what happens.
@@Jason-cz3bvJust gotta push through. The more you do it, the easier it gets. I've never attempted 72 hours. Longest I've tried is 36 hours and it does indeed get easier.
I'm 70 years old, I've been severely injured and in a leg brace for over 3 months. I just been allowed to add slow bicycling, with very little distance back into my life. After watching your video, I'm going to add walking to my routine. Oh, by the way, Iwas extremely overweight and in bad shape months ago, in the last 5 months I've lost 60 pounds doing keto and no exercising because of my injuries. Thank you very much for this informative video i've been inspired. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Gracias Dr. Ekberg. I was previously pre-diabetic and high cholesterol but now following your advice in 1.5 months I am down to 186 from 206 and feel more energetic, sleep better, think better, and even my skin has improved. Greetings and respect to all from Mexico 🇲🇽
It would be wonderful if this message for weight loss could be heard throughout Mexico! It makes me sad to see so many people that are fat. Congratulations to you!
@@Rittlesleo Well one of the huge problems in Mexico, is that Soda is pretty much cheaper than pure water, so even baby's get that crap in a bottle before they have teeth 😢
Mexico is one of the bigger consumers of coke 😓 we also love sweet bread, I haven’t had a piece in over a month and it is hard but I’m watching these videos and being healthier, I’ve always been affraid of diabetes, my mom is a diabetic and so was her mother and whole family, I thank this doctor for his videos!!!
I had no idea we were being food poisoned by the big farming and manufacturing industry until I developed such severe food sensitivities that my entire colon becomes inflamed if I eat the wrong thing. It’s so hard when you’ve been eating it for 50 years. But with your lessons I understand so much more. I was trained as a nurse and learned all the wrong information. Working to try to heal my gut and prevent disease. It’s majorly affecting my life. I’ve had to change everything about the way I eat and view food. Thank you for imparting your knowledge and understanding to us. It makes so much sense to me.
I am 66 years old and have been learning to eat better for my health over the last year. I have gone from a start of 303lbs down to current 236lbs....still lots more to lose. All through diet changes so far, intermittent fasting getting close to OMAD and greatly reduced carb intake. NO sugar, no bread, extremely reduced carbs....so far this is very sustainable and I am stilling learning and adapting. As I lose more weight I will include more daily walking exercise and fasting for 3-4 days at least once per month. Feeling 100% better physically and mentally, and I will continue on this path. Many thanks to Dr Sten for all the great information in his videos!!
just found sargento sharp cheddar is zero carbs, and inked keto seed bread is zero carbs, so i can have toast or grilled cheese whenever i want...good luck to you. also just found zero carb tortillas at walmart, currently having shredded rib tacos. and lilly's chocolate chips to snack on.
As a retired ICU Nurse, I find the fact you emphasize that each person’s body’s needs are unique to that person, (ie: we’re not all the same) to be so crucial to the public understanding how your excellent information is applied. Thank you for your exceptionally well presented videos! Best I’ve ever found on UA-cam.
I think this statement is great and really makes a lot of common sense. I'm one of those people you are talking about. I have hereditary high cholesterol and Some of this "go ahead and eat red meat" diet advice is dangerous for people like me. My LDL is 337. My triglycerides are sky high. There is no red meat in my life and there can never be again. If I'm gonna have a higher fat diet, It's gotta be sourced from fish, olive oil and nuts. Complex carbs are good for me. I have to eat oatmeal to get the cholesterol down. As you said, everyone is different. Some people can eat steak every day and have low cholesterol.
I'm 63 years old play drums and want to keep playing drums, since paying attention to your advice never realized the importance of body chemistry interaction! I'm now much more relaxed and moving around the kit much more fluently! Thankyou,!
One of the best overall videos I have seen on UA-cam. I am 75 y/o female because of (a long story) I began listening to videos about keto. Then a friend told me about you. I was just an occasional listener until my spring allergies hit. This year after a day cleaning flower beds I woke up deaf the next morning. The ENT worked me in and my hearing loss was caused from seasonal allergies. With treatment my hearing cleared. 2 weeks and 1 day later I started spring cleanup again, next day I woke up with itchy, swollen black eye. One look in the mirror and that was the day I began keto. (Also more meds)My son and my nephew (3 yrs on keto) inspired me to take a look at keto. My decline in my overall health over the past 25 years made me want to give keto a try. 2 weeks on keto (began with 8/16) and combined with allergies I finally felt like getting back in my yard. The first video I watched that day was your how to begin keto and that is when I subscribed to your website. Here I am 4 month later. Still on keto and I am blessed, grateful, and thankful for you.
After 70 days doing a keto + fasting lost loads of body fat and feel amazing. What's most amazing though is how much energy I now have and how I'm less hungry despite eating less. I started just doing keto. Then figured myself it made sence to shrink eating window so longer in ketosis. Without any effort went to OMAD. Last week switched to 36/12 but without trying ended up 44/4 and still less hungry than before when I was practically living on white bread. My friend asked me how long am I going to keep this going? I told if I ever fancy being hungry, fat, Ill, tired then I might think about stopping lol. It's hard to get over in word just how good you feel and how easy it is. Far easier than not doing it for sure.
God bless you Dr Ekberg! I've recently been diagnosed as being "pre-diabetic" (A1C is 6.2 which is still normal, but fasting blood sugar is 118 ...). A lot of folks on my mother's side of the family (including my mother) are diabetic (type 2); so I was extremely concerned that it'd be a matter time before I develop T2 diabetes too. Your advices (intermittent fasting; keto diet etc.) are god sent to me!!! You literally saved my life .....
Congrats on the new office! Thanks for the education. It's made a huge difference in my life. I've gone from 167 pounds down to about 150. When I'm on the keto diet, I have a lot more energy and generally feel better physically and emotionally. I noticed when I started keto, my anxiety almost went down to nothing, and I'm 100% convinced that too much sugar was the cause. My wife struggles with autoimmune disorders. When she's on keto, she can tell a big difference as well. The challenge is keeping enough healthy food in our house. Thanks for the great education and motivation! God bless you!
I lost 45kg in 3 monts with prolonged fastings and keto, first month was extreme fasting had 11 meals in whole month then switched to omad keto then implemented 2 meals a day also keto and i still kept my weight 76kg for whole year no bounc back effect and still no suggar or carbs. Saved my life
Many states don’t consider chiros physicians. No shade at him.. most physicians don’t know anything about functional medicine and just prescribes drugs that band aid symptoms ..
There us a type of meditation: mind and heart coherence. It’s the best. As you don’t need to trick push your brain to not think. You start with your heart and brain follows.
I'm doing the OMAD now since January 1st. I have lost almost 40 lbs. now and have been taken off of one of my BP meds. My Dr. is hopeful I will be off the rest of them by August or earlier. I feel so much better now body and mind. I will start doing a 36 to 72 hour fast from time to time to see how much better I can be. Thank you for the great videos and information.
@@angelasmith257 bro, stop that stress that your body is getting enough nutrients or not - your body is the perfect machine. In case of deficiency, it will either acquired them from within the body or it will let you know😇
Thankyou for your clear and precise delivery of "healthy eating. I was 16st 5lbs, at age 68, bad skin, psoriasis on ankle which constantly got infected, hip and knee pain. This morning, the scales showed 12st 13lbs. Still a bit to go. My psoriasis has improved tremendously, my hip and knees better. My skin is noticeably improved, and the bags under my eyes, almost gone. I actually now dont want cake and icecream anymore, my peas, cauliflower and cabbage taste divine. I started the process of a keto diet just 6 months ago, and boy oh boy, what a difference. Good luck with your venture, you are an inspiration.
You give the best information on you tube .I am 67 years old and I have been exercising for more than 50 years. I weigh 78 kilos and I am muscular and I have a six pack. I don't eat sugar and trans fat and junk food. I lift weights 4 times a week and I row in the gym for 1 hour and sometimes I cycle 70 kilometers for 4 hours. Nutrition is very important otherwise your body never burns fat even with a lot of exercise.
I wish you every success with your new clinic. I can hear the excitement and passion in your voice. Just wish the health authorities (including the UK) could see the light and spread the word
I lost 25lbs in 3- weeks this is how I stopped eating carbs especially bread, rice snacks etc only drink water and walking 30 minutes a day or 5000 steps I also intermittent fast and do keto diet
Dr. Ekberg, you’re the real deal. Your advice has got me from 100.4 kg to just over 80 kg in 11 months. I’m on target to lose between 20 - 24 kilos within the year (summer to summer). Most significantly, of all the knowledge you’ve provided, you’ve given me a clear sense of leverage. I now know, beyond the shadow of a doubt, that I can have very real impact on my body’s health and vitality by applying this knowledge. I wish you every success in your vision and your new ventures.
I did do omad a while back and lost some fat.....then fell off the wagon. Unfortunately in many cases like myself ....suffering from depression affect your motivation and adherence to a change in lifestyle. In many cases as in mine....depression cases you to overeat. It sucks! And many will say you have an eating problem......and i say ....no....i have problems that cause me to overeat. And similarly when we see someone with a 'drinking problem'......more often than not.....we should be saying.......this person has problems that cause them to drink. Kind of puts the person in a different perspective. But anyways......as usual you are a fantastic doc for enlighteni g us! Starting to watch you again........and hopefully get myself motivated again.
Hi I am a doctor too and I love how you say very difficult things in very easy and understanding way. I started Intermittent fasting and I need to do it right because Iam older and have insulin resistance fatty liver and overweight. To many years attending people seated, no excercise is the reason why I need a good change!
I have been doing intermitted fasting for 6 weeks now. Today I broke my 40 hour fast. So far I lost 17 pounds. Your videos are my motivation, education and inspiration. I watch them every day and repeat many especially autophagy. My goal is 120. I started at 191.2. I think I am/was insulin resistant. I am such a pastry girl. Croissants are my weakness. But I keep watching you to stay strong. THANK YOU! I want to reach my goal by December! Staying in ketosis as much as possible. I have a keto mojo and I check my glucose and ketons numerous times every day. I learn so much from you. THANK YOU so much! Oh and btw I measured my ketons glucose before I broke my 40 hour fast it was 61mg/dl glucose (the lowest since I started 6 weeks ago) my ketons were 4.3 mmol/l (also the lowest) GKI 0.7 My measurements 1.5 hours after eating a generous egg white omelet with fresh mushrooms, green onions and about 3 cups of chopped green mixed salad without any dressing. I only used MCT oil to fry the omelet and mushrooms. I measured glucose 85 mg/dl ketons 5.0 mmol/L GKI 0.9 I am really happy about that. 😁 I have 4 HOUR EATING WINDOW now but unless I am hungry I won't eat until tomorrow at noon again. I like OMAD
Most of what you are doing is excellent 👍 I do have one ? ( And I have been seriously IF / low carb / no carb for 5 yrs now ) Why in the 🌎🌍 would you eat a white only omelet ? You are not a baby 🐣 🐥🐥🐣 chicken ....All other predators who eat eggs 💕 💕 love 💕💕 the egg 🥚 YOLKS and go after them FIRST , ( Then they lap up the whites sometimes but often leave them & go for the next yolk ) egg yolks biologically contain the most compleat available ( 95 %) protein on the 🌎🌍. Dr E mentions right here that fatty meat / fish / chicken are PREFERRED.He also did a video where he ate 100 eggs 🥚🥚🥚🥚🥚🥚🥚🥚🥚🥚 in a week or ten days .He was fine , he did not drop dead from eggyolkitis ... Keep the faith , you are , as I said , doing well .... remember nature knows best .... The egg was really not meant to be separated , as the fat was not meant to be removed from milk , etc....Everytime man thinks he is smarter than nature he loses.
@@Rittlesleo Yeah that's the best part of the egg. The whites don't do much. Also have to make sure you eat the yolks runny or even uncooked, since many of the nutrients in them degrade quickly from heat.
Hello from Turkey, I am a nurse and I met you today. You explain the working system of the body very well. I'm happy to know you. I will recommend it to all my friends. I wish you healthy days.
Thank you doc! I spent 10 years, not figuring out my body and how to lose weight... Now I'm not only losing weight but my body is slowly transforming into an ancient Greek athlete body! Thank you so much!
Hey, I started at the end of May, I was 126 now im 117 but havent seen ANY changes. I workout 3-4/week, and do 11k steps a day.But i just cant see changes. Any toughts?
*Thank you so much Dr. Ekberg for giving me the knowledge to be CONFIDENT with what my body can do!* I was SO confident, I threw caution to the wind and dove in. Yesterday I did my *first fast - 24 hours!* I'm 23 hours into my second 24-hour fast today (the next day)! I FEEL GREAT, NO HUNGER!!! *I'm a 50 year old woman!* Who knew?! *_YAHOO!!!_*
Dr. Sten, hello from Ireland. I would like to thank you for your very pragmatic approach to health and well being. I'm 64 and I've exercised and trained all my life, I still do. Back in the day it was 'no pain no gain' and there was nobody there to explain (as you do) the why's and the wherefores' and how the body responds to the various stresses from exercise, diet and life. We just did it 'cas that's the way it was. I suppose ultimately what I'm trying to say is that 'YES' you can teach and old dog new tricks. I wish you well with your move and your life. From an old Irish warhorse .
Congratulations on the new facility, you have really helped me out, lost over 100 lb in about 10 months so far, about 30 more to go, I find your info to be spot on, again thank you
Congratulations on your clinic! Just my story. As a 53 year old runner of 20 plus years and low carb since 2018, I’ve had issues with hormonal belly after OMAD & consistent 20:4 fasting. Ive never been overweight but things are shifting. Anyone else out there with this issue? It’s frustrating.
@@peterminton8105 Excellent advice Peter. I have a low amount of muscle and also low testosterone. A double whammy! And then on top of it, I'm vegetarian so eating a low-carb steak is not an option for me. I guess I'm kind of screwed unless I want to give us the vegetarian thing. Do you think I should increase my protein through protein shakes (I'm ok with whey) as long as I'm doing some strength training exercises? I'm skinny in my arms and legs but wayyyyy too much fat in the gut. And my body fat is coming in at 35% on my home scale which I know is crazy. So your "skinny fat" comment really made a lot of sense to me. I know I need to focus on building muscle.
Thank you MIDWEST MOE for sharing your great results and helping inspire others. That is so awesome. I am thrilled that you have seen such great results. Keep it up! 😄
Congratulations, Midwest! I'm almost exactly in your situation at the moment. I'm 6'2" and 285 and hoping to lose the excess as fast as possible. May I ask how long it took you to drop from 275 to 195?
@@RichardHarlos I’m not sure, to be honest. I was playing around at first. Once I started Keto, then OMAD, along with walking everyday, the pounds fell off pretty fast. I have some weights as well, but I don’t go too heavy with those, working out a few times a week. I had martial arts injuries for years. Thought the pain would last for life… It was inflammation from my diet. Unbelievable really. Diet is key, along with intermittent fasting. I am 48 now, and n better shape than I have been in over 20 years. I’ll be 185 soon; back to my natural weight. Listen to the doc, it will change your life.
Great video explaining it. I started my Keto diet + IF around 2 weeks ago after piling up too much weight in the last 2.5 years. I decided to go on for 100 days to see the results. I am at a 2-4 hour feeding window and I feel better every day getting after getting over the Keto flu period. To all, just make sure you don't reduce your calorie intake too much and take long walks instead of running. I will start with HIIT in a week or 2. Meditation and reading are two other things that helps to reduce cortisol. Good luck with your journey and make sure it's sustainable
started cutting about 90% of my carbs and only eating 2 meals at 10 am and 4pm and fasting the rest of the time. I am relatively skinny but have a big belly. 54yo male within 2 weeks I lost 10 pounds. If I only knew it was so easy. I'll be getting smaller pants very soon.
Fantastic! Congratulations on your new clinic 💖 An absolute testament to your passion and dedication. I for one (a 4 year stroke survivor) and so much healthier because of you and your teachings. I have definitely taken your basic principles and customized to be “my” personal and healthy diet. Getting ready to tweak again as I am about 20 pounds from goal. With mobility issues (which are also getting better because of my healthy diet), I have to follow a diet that gets me to a healthy weight without exercise so that the exercise I can do focuses on mobility and cardiovascular health
Hi, Dr. Sten, thanks for this video. I started my intermittent fasting 3 days ago because I have a dream of finishing a marathon. I am 54 y.o. and I weigh 82 kilograms.
I powerlift 3 days a week, fixing to head to the gym now. When I get back I’ll be cooking a porkchop with a sunny side up egg that simmers in the rendered fat. I will not think about eating again until tonight. You are the one who put me on this path and I can’t thank you enough. Congratulations on your new location and I have tons of family in Georgia so one day I hope to pay you a visit. Thanks Doc!
@@ginax8307 very little, don’t know exactly. I do not eat any processed foods, starchy veggies or snacks just any kind of fatty meat and green veggies. I do eat about a half cup of nuts before a session. In case you’re wondering I’m 55 years old and once a pre-diabetic.
Finally, a common sense approach to weight loss. Thank you very much Dr. Ekberg for being truthful with the public. I admire your intelligence and willingness to share this information without using gimmicks or moneymaking schemes like so many others do. God bless you and keep up the good work.
Thank You @williamskentzos9540 so much for showing your appreciation and supporting the channel, and for helping me get the message of health out to the world. 🙏 🏆 😄
Thank You @drekberg so much for showing your appreciation and supporting the channel, and for helping me get the message of health out to the world. 🙏 🏆 😄
You literally saved my life; I was Prediabetic with fatty liver, on medication. Now I completely Healthy and with more energy that ever !!! Thank you for sharing the wealth of knowledge. You are a HERO 🦸 Congratulations on your new clinic!!!
Thank you Dr Sten. I have been on intermittent fasting for for three weeks now. Last week I didn't eat for two days. I lost 5kg. Today I am on my second day of no food. Thinking of going like this for five days. My goal is to move from 95kg to 80kg in four months.
I have been doing 18 hour fasting since 2019. I eat my two daily meals in a 6 hour period, from 8am-2pm, breakfast and lunch. I lost 20 lbs, I feel great, and my lipid panel is much better. Fasting is sustainable, you have more energy, and feel more healthy also. If I get hungry after 2pm, I eat a handful of pistachios or pecans and I get satisfied until the next day.
I'm so grateful for finding your channel on UA-cam. The quality of education i get from consuming your contents is priceless. I really appreciate your effort to educating people and improving all of our lives!
I live in Bulgaria dr. Ekerg and I am Keto an OMAD the most of the days, and I WILL THANK YOU FOR YOUR GREAT WORK!🙏God bless you and your family. I am wishing you all the best luck in your life and workplace! It's such an honour to learn from you.
Thank you from croatia. I started IF and OMAD. Cut almost all carbs. No sugar. No alcohol. No processed food. ( the bread is really tough as the bakeries make such good bread here!!). Ive lost 20 pounds in 2 months!! I feel fantastic. Im almost 54 and i feel wonderful! I cant thank you enough for your excellent explanations and encouragement on your channel!!
YES....YES....YES..I STARTED CUTTING CARBS 3 1/2 WEEKS AGO, AFTER WATCHING ONE OF YOUR CARD CUTTING VIDEOS, AND HAVE LOST 10 #'S AND EVEN BETTER THAN THAT....''NO MORE CRAVINGS!!....NONE!!!! IT'S LIKE A MIRACLE!!....NO EFFORT!!....NO SUFFERING!! like I thought it would be like....Call it what you will, but I have no one else to credit 4 this CURE but YOU and your videos!!! I'm sure too, it also was at the right time, right place in my 77 yr OLD life, but I really think I can finally say/boast, I'm over the hump, yet it was the same craveless feelings I had right from day one....no difference, simply put, all it took was just to not put anything sweet/carbs in my mouth and still eat everything else, and at first I over ate thinking that might hide my cravings, yet slowly every day since, I find even my hunger is diminishing , and have to remind myself to eat something during the day....CRAZY I know but I'm on a roll and it's not a sweet roll 4 a change!! I'll keep posting as time goes on, but I really think I got this!!
I cut out sugar 4 Weeks ago - it was like a "cold turkey", reduced Crabon-Hydrates by much, if i eat them i prefer whole grain. I am in keto now for 3 weeks and it feels wonderful!
Thank you so much. I have been on keto a couple of times and lately i have come off the wagon and become addicted to sugar and carbs again. I need to get back on track and it's no joke i gotta do it now. Your video came in at the right time. Appreciate it very much!
❤❤❤!!! Спасибо за русскоязычный перевод, как хорошо, что я могу слышать такие полезные советы. Очень понравилось, как перейти к одноразовому питанию в день, сдвигая завтрак и ужин к обеду. Как можно меньше сладкого, чтобы давать организму перерабатывать жир на животе!!! Спасибо за спокойный голос диктора.
I live in Nicaragua and have started LCHF and OMAD about 6 weeks ago. You have taught me so much and I am truly a Health Champion. I have a daughter in North Carolina, and next time I visit her, I will make a trip to Georgia to visit your new clinic. Good luck to you and God bless you for all you do for your patients and followers.
I started my weight loss journey in December 2021, and with the help of videos like these, IF, Keto, OMAD, and exercise, ive been able to lose 90 lbs. thank you Dr. Ekberg!
Thank You @ThirumeninathanMurugan so much for showing your appreciation and supporting the channel, and for helping me get the message of health out to the world. 🙏 🏆 😄
I have so many questions but I have been watching your videos for about 3 weeks now and they make complete sense to me. I am on meds for diabetes, but all last fall and winter my sugar ran 300 despite the meds. Yesterday I had a reading of 100. Today it’s 124. Not a “ normal” number but so much better. I started keto two or three weeks ago but still learning how I respond to carbs. Sometimes I can eat more of them, sometimes not. I was eating two times a day with sometimes a snack of cheese or nuts. Today I’m starting Omad. I have put on 3 pounds but I’m also sick. In 2013 I lost 40 pounds and was so slim and had lost 20 pounds previously by lowering carbs because of diabetes but it was still so high compared to keto. I lost the 40 by practical starvation and eating no particular food, any old food I grabbed but only ate a tiny bit. I wasn’t eating good fats or vegetables on a regular basis. But my diabetes was gone so I thought. So when my life situation changed a year later, the weight came back and just went up and up, only to gain a whopping 72 pounds. I’ve lost 40, and I so want to lose another 35 to 40. I have mg hubby on board too and he is a tough cookie as he is also diabetic and obese but he has lost 60 pounds over the years, he is addicted to sugar so it has been hard to get him totally on this. I really want to tell everyone I know how this all works but when I try, they tell me I’m crazy and their doctor or endocrinologist told them to eat low fat and not to fast, etc: my own doctor told me to eat plant based. Wow so he wants me to eat fruit and wheat products and thinks my sugar will improve? I think not.
I lost 36 pounds last year . Partly down to desire for change but I adopted better habits such as 10000 steps every working day. Eating more plant based foods such as salads/fresh veg and portion control I calculated I consuming around 1400 to 1500 cals per day. I avoided hyper processed foods such as Pringles, crisps, healthy snack bars and sweet biscuits. I didnt go keto I did eat jacket poatoes but not chips, I did eat bread but only sourdough as a meal with eggs never with marmalade or as a snack. I made small incremental changes but was far from keto . I ate more cheese in ratio terms but not in totality compared with previously. I ate more eggs rather than cereal such as porridge and fruit (which I never added sugar to) I found that in the Autumn of last year I had got a little complacent with my new habits and decided to check out interval fasting and ate within a 9 hour window out of 24 which worked brilliantly as long as I opted for only known healthy foods such as nuts 25 grams etc and ate eggs etc but I still continued to eat sourdough bread with eggs and potato /rice with main meals but keeping a check on portion size especially of carbs. Success so far but I have a way to go yet. Fortunately I have never had a pre diabetic blood test result so I will keep on track and look forward to day I achieve my goal of a healthy bmi. More important than ever as I am now in my 50’s The common theme to success seems to be adopting healthy habits that effortlessly fit into your lifestyle and become instinctive and not a chore. Similar with exercise ……..dance if you love it, swim if you enjoy or if you love the great outdoors purchase a good pair of walking shoes and go for a regular walk, borrow your neighbours dog and offer to walk it if that helps a neighbour…….
I have been on your Programs for 4 weeks now and lost 5kilo of body weight OMAD and 3 hours of Exercise per week... My Fungal Toe nail is slowly Healing after 20 years with this yellow problem.

APPLAUSE, APPLAUSE!!! 🎉🎉🎉 You've covered EVERYTHING in this video! I'm sharing this one with several people I love because it breaks my heart how confused and discouraged they get, because I've been there. ❤. And big congrats on your new facility!
Thank you Lisa. The greatest compliment you can give is to help me help more people by sharing the videos with others so thank you for helping others ❤ .😄
I've kind of gone about this backwards. When I started WFH, I didn't eat breakfast already, but then decided, due to the lack of movement I should probably cut back on food, so cut out lunch. I've recently stopped snacking after my main meal, so now I'm OMAD. Since then, I've started researching IF and Keto, so now cutting the carbs. I guess I should add I've lost 45lb in 6 months without really putting any more thought into it than I laid out above.
Thank you Dr! I just ended my 5 day water fast, I followed your video on how to safely eat again and ate what I had in stock as i had no plan. It was almond butter, 1/2cup sauerkraut, 1/2 cup kefir and 1 cup veg broth. I put on my timer and ate 1 item every hour. 6hrs has now passed and I'm surprised that i am not even hungry. I was disappointed I only lost 2.5kg. I was doing 20min light rebounding on my new Cellerciser from days 1-4. Day 5 i was to tired. You answered my disappointment. Time to make more changes so I can tap into my body fat. Thank you for helping me understand my problems. 😊❤

For me, the key is stress. When I am not stressed at all, fasting and low carbs is very easy. When I am stressed, it is almost impossible. I found that when I exercise I eat less, and until I watched this video I was confused by that. I think what is happening is that the exercise cuts the stress, so I end up with fewer cravings because I have less stress. I've never tried meditation - I wouldn't know where to start and I'm not confident it would work for me. What I do instead, besides exercise, is take frequent breaks from work. Reading a fiction book works well for my break. Also, I don't live in Georgia any more, but I used to live about 2 mile from where that clinic is. Just my luck.
Was doing exactly what you are saying here. After 8 months I was down to two meals a day, Feeling satiated. Lost 30 pounds. And especially my insomnia disappeared. THEN I got diagnosed with Alpha Gal about 4 months ago. Finding it very hard.
Understanding how carb intake and the fat burning process works should be taught to parents as part of their child's school program. So many parents keep buying and feeding their kids processed garbage filled with sugar and additives without giving it a second thought. Dr. Ekberg's videos are inspirational and have helped me improve my quality of life tremendously. Thanks!
Thnx for expanding my view, didn’t thought as far. In addition i would like to add that schools and ESPECIALLY the learning program would have to be upgraded to make this lifestyle mandatory, imagine for a second how happy all of us would be if everyone was healthy. I’m happy to see that a lot of people are waking up and helping society forwards… teaching by example is the way to go, so if you’re a parent, teach your kids, no matter of their age. Plant a seed, grow a forest❤️

I had my gall bladder removed a few years ago, do I need to do anything significantly differently? Are there any additional things I have to take into account when trying to lose weight? Also, I have been swimming as my exercise, and am putting in one mile to begin with, then doing 5 X 100 meter sprints after the mile, to try to get some HIT in; is that the correct approach?

Thank you so much for your insight on body fat !!! You help a ton!! Congratz with new clinic!
Dear Dr. Ekberg, thank you so much for this extremely clear and thorough discussion of a very complex matter. No one, and I do mean no one, explains these important concepts better than you do. You are definitely at the top of my long list of UA-cam influencers regarding all aspects of physical health and wellness!
And today, I am especially grateful for your mention of how cortisol leads to a craving for carbs. I have a major problem w inescapable stress & consequent sleep deprivation that i believe is preventing me from losing weight. And now, thanks to you, I realize that every time I find myself desiring carbs again, despite my nearly eliminating them for months now, it is merely an indication that my cortisol is up. And so, per your suggestion, I will turn to meditation instead of Stevia at these unexpected times, lol, and perhaps I will finally find a solution there.
So thank you again, so much, and I wish many blessings and blue skies to you and yours. And also, congrats on the anticipated expansion of your practice and reach. I live in North Carolina, literally within a days drive away, so perhaps we will meet in person someday.🤞
Me personally, I started losing the most weight after reading the book Woman’s weight loss secrets: the unspoken truth, a few things you are mentioning in this video are also in the book

I started IF and OMAD with a Keto diet Dec. 29th for health reasons. Not only has my health improved to the point I’m no longer on medications that I believe were killing me, I’ve lost 50 lbs! What’s amazing is that I’m 82 years old! I have my life back. I started my journey at 207 lbs. and my current weight is 157 lbs. I’m 5’7” tall. If I’d had this information earlier in life, what a difference it would have made.

it is very difficult to cut off the rice completely with pakistani or eastern food (Thai, Indian, Chinese, Khmer, etc), you have to make your own "cauliflower rice" or turn on spinach, eggplants and all those wonderful vegetables. Good luck to you !

Yes I love that he calls us all ‘health champions’
It all boils down to this. Make a healthy habit a routine and your routine will become a life style. Focus on how you will continue the journey not the reward for finishing the race. Be patient, take responsibility, accept humility. Trust the process. Always remember To have a healthy body you MUST have a healthy MIND first.
Well said.. consistency is the name of the game and re assessing one’s capabilities every 5 years once we are a bit older and making those adjustments to avoid injury
A healthy body will create a healthy mind too.
Thank you Dr. Ekberg for saving my mother's life. Thru watching many many many of your videos you have inspired me to become educated regarding health and I have brought my 81 y.o. mother from the brink of a miserable painful death to losing over 40lbs dropping A1c down to 4.8 and getting rid of multiple prescriptions. She is now able to walk again. Our shared journey continues... You and your channel are a blessing to my family.

It would be wonderful if this message for weight loss could be heard throughout Mexico! It makes me sad to see so many people that are fat. Congratulations to you!

I had no idea we were being food poisoned by the big farming and manufacturing industry until I developed such severe food sensitivities that my entire colon becomes inflamed if I eat the wrong thing. It’s so hard when you’ve been eating it for 50 years. But with your lessons I understand so much more. I was trained as a nurse and learned all the wrong information. Working to try to heal my gut and prevent disease. It’s majorly affecting my life. I’ve had to change everything about the way I eat and view food. Thank you for imparting your knowledge and understanding to us. It makes so much sense to me.
I am 66 years old and have been learning to eat better for my health over the last year. I have gone from a start of 303lbs down to current 236lbs....still lots more to lose. All through diet changes so far, intermittent fasting getting close to OMAD and greatly reduced carb intake. NO sugar, no bread, extremely reduced carbs....so far this is very sustainable and I am stilling learning and adapting. As I lose more weight I will include more daily walking exercise and fasting for 3-4 days at least once per month. Feeling 100% better physically and mentally, and I will continue on this path. Many thanks to Dr Sten for all the great information in his videos!!
Congratulations!! So happy for.
So great!!!
Thank you for sharing your experience. 💪
Excellent!
just found sargento sharp cheddar is zero carbs, and inked keto seed bread is zero carbs, so i can have toast or grilled cheese whenever i want...good luck to you. also just found zero carb tortillas at walmart, currently having shredded rib tacos. and lilly's chocolate chips to snack on.
As a retired ICU Nurse, I find the fact you emphasize that each person’s body’s needs are unique to that person, (ie: we’re not all the same) to be so crucial to the public understanding how your excellent information is applied. Thank you for your exceptionally well presented videos! Best I’ve ever found on UA-cam.
ICU nurse here too. Very nice to find a well balanced health teacher.
I think this statement is great and really makes a lot of common sense. I'm one of those people you are talking about. I have hereditary high cholesterol and Some of this "go ahead and eat red meat" diet advice is dangerous for people like me. My LDL is 337. My triglycerides are sky high. There is no red meat in my life and there can never be again. If I'm gonna have a higher fat diet, It's gotta be sourced from fish, olive oil and nuts. Complex carbs are good for me. I have to eat oatmeal to get the cholesterol down. As you said, everyone is different. Some people can eat steak every day and have low cholesterol.

One of the best overall videos I have seen on UA-cam. I am 75 y/o female because of (a long story) I began listening to videos about keto. Then a friend told me about you. I was just an occasional listener until my spring allergies hit. This year after a day cleaning flower beds I woke up deaf the next morning. The ENT worked me in and my hearing loss was caused from seasonal allergies. With treatment my hearing cleared. 2 weeks and 1 day later I started spring cleanup again, next day I woke up with itchy, swollen black eye. One look in the mirror and that was the day I began keto. (Also more meds)My son and my nephew (3 yrs on keto) inspired me to take a look at keto. My decline in my overall health over the past 25 years made me want to give keto a try. 2 weeks on keto (began with 8/16) and combined with allergies I finally felt like getting back in my yard. The first video I watched that day was your how to begin keto and that is when I subscribed to your website. Here I am 4 month later. Still on keto and I am blessed, grateful, and thankful for you.
After 70 days doing a keto + fasting lost loads of body fat and feel amazing. What's most amazing though is how much energy I now have and how I'm less hungry despite eating less. I started just doing keto. Then figured myself it made sence to shrink eating window so longer in ketosis. Without any effort went to OMAD. Last week switched to 36/12 but without trying ended up 44/4 and still less hungry than before when I was practically living on white bread. My friend asked me how long am I going to keep this going? I told if I ever fancy being hungry, fat, Ill, tired then I might think about stopping lol. It's hard to get over in word just how good you feel and how easy it is. Far easier than not doing it for sure.

God bless you Dr Ekberg! I've recently been diagnosed as being "pre-diabetic" (A1C is 6.2 which is still normal, but fasting blood sugar is 118 ...). A lot of folks on my mother's side of the family (including my mother) are diabetic (type 2); so I was extremely concerned that it'd be a matter time before I develop T2 diabetes too. Your advices (intermittent fasting; keto diet etc.) are god sent to me!!! You literally saved my life .....

Congrats on the new office! Thanks for the education. It's made a huge difference in my life. I've gone from 167 pounds down to about 150. When I'm on the keto diet, I have a lot more energy and generally feel better physically and emotionally. I noticed when I started keto, my anxiety almost went down to nothing, and I'm 100% convinced that too much sugar was the cause.
My wife struggles with autoimmune disorders. When she's on keto, she can tell a big difference as well. The challenge is keeping enough healthy food in our house. Thanks for the great education and motivation! God bless you!

Many states don’t consider chiros physicians. No shade at him.. most physicians don’t know anything about functional medicine and just prescribes drugs that band aid symptoms ..

It sucks! And many will say you have an eating problem......and i say ....no....i have problems that cause me to overeat. And similarly when we see someone with a 'drinking problem'......more often than not.....we should be saying.......this person has problems that cause them to drink. Kind of puts the person in a different perspective.

I watch them every day and repeat many especially autophagy. My goal is 120. I started at 191.2. I think I am/was insulin resistant. I am such a pastry girl. Croissants are my weakness. But I keep watching you to stay strong. THANK YOU! I want to reach my goal by December! Staying in ketosis as much as possible. I have a keto mojo and I check my glucose and ketons numerous times every day. I learn so much from you. THANK YOU so much!
Oh and btw I measured my ketons glucose before I broke my 40 hour fast it was 61mg/dl glucose (the lowest since I started 6 weeks ago) my ketons were 4.3 mmol/l (also the lowest) GKI 0.7
My measurements 1.5 hours after eating a generous egg white omelet with fresh mushrooms, green onions and about 3 cups of chopped green mixed salad without any dressing. I only used MCT oil to fry the omelet and mushrooms. I measured glucose 85 mg/dl ketons 5.0 mmol/L GKI 0.9
I am really happy about that. 😁 I have 4 HOUR EATING WINDOW now but unless I am hungry I won't eat until tomorrow at noon again. I like OMAD
you are an inspiration!!
This was an inspiring read, keep going, day by day it gets easier and happiness and fullfilment are right behind the corner :)
Most of what you are doing is excellent 👍
I do have one ? ( And I have been seriously
IF / low carb / no carb for 5 yrs now ) Why in the 🌎🌍 would you eat a white only omelet ? You are not a baby 🐣 🐥🐥🐣
chicken ....All other predators who eat eggs
💕 💕 love 💕💕 the egg 🥚 YOLKS and go after them FIRST , ( Then they lap up the whites sometimes but often leave them & go for the next yolk ) egg yolks biologically contain the most compleat available ( 95 %)
protein on the 🌎🌍. Dr E mentions right here that fatty meat / fish / chicken are PREFERRED.He also did a video where he ate 100 eggs 🥚🥚🥚🥚🥚🥚🥚🥚🥚🥚
in a week or ten days .He was fine , he did not drop dead from eggyolkitis ...
Keep the faith , you are , as I said , doing well .... remember nature knows best ....
The egg was really not meant to be separated , as the fat was not meant to be removed from milk , etc....Everytime man thinks he is smarter than nature he loses.
Unless you have an allergy, you really should eat the yolks. That's where the fat soluble nutrients are.
@@Rittlesleo Yeah that's the best part of the egg. The whites don't do much. Also have to make sure you eat the yolks runny or even uncooked, since many of the nutrients in them degrade quickly from heat.
Hello from Turkey, I am a nurse and I met you today. You explain the working system of the body very well. I'm happy to know you. I will recommend it to all my friends. I wish you healthy days.
Thank you Dr. Ekberg, when i get lazy and do not want to do anything, i watch your videos for inspiration to get back into my exercise routine.
Thank you doc! I spent 10 years, not figuring out my body and how to lose weight... Now I'm not only losing weight but my body is slowly transforming into an ancient Greek athlete body! Thank you so much!
ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
Brilliant 😂 ! All the best on your journey
Wonderful!
317 to 230 on keto and exercise. Pretty much stuck in this 230 range now, but might have alot to do with increased muscle weight
I've been watching your videos since march and following your advice. I was 120kg, now i'm 105kg. Still ways to go but it's been amazing. Thank you!
Hey, I started at the end of May, I was 126 now im 117 but havent seen ANY changes. I workout 3-4/week, and do 11k steps a day.But i just cant see changes. Any toughts?
@@Hiroto1 I am no expert so i don't know. I started seeing noticeable change in myself only recently. I guess it takes time.
Did you incorporate strength training or just cardio? And what was your daily protein intake?
This doctor changed my life.
I have a whole new approach to food.
I don’t even know how I found him on utube. It’s a blessing!
*Thank you so much Dr. Ekberg for giving me the knowledge to be CONFIDENT with what my body can do!* I was SO confident, I threw caution to the wind and dove in. Yesterday I did my *first fast - 24 hours!* I'm 23 hours into my second 24-hour fast today (the next day)! I FEEL GREAT, NO HUNGER!!! *I'm a 50 year old woman!* Who knew?! *_YAHOO!!!_*
Just hearing you talk is all the motivation I need to not break my fast early. Ty
Dr. Sten, hello from Ireland. I would like to thank you for your very pragmatic approach to health and well being. I'm 64 and I've exercised and trained all my life, I still do.
Back in the day it was 'no pain no gain' and there was nobody there to explain (as you do) the why's and the wherefores' and how the body responds to the various stresses from exercise, diet and life. We just did it 'cas that's the way it was.
I suppose ultimately what I'm trying to say is that 'YES' you can teach and old dog new tricks.
I wish you well with your move and your life.
From an old Irish warhorse .
64 is NOT old !! 😊
This is the first time I am seeing one of your videos. Those is the clearest information I have heard. Thanks.
Congratulations on the new facility, you have really helped me out, lost over 100 lb in about 10 months so far, about 30 more to go, I find your info to be spot on, again thank you
Congratulations Tom!
"Useless information out there" So true doc, great to see you make another informative video 🙏
Thank you Jason A. Rodriguez.😄
This channel has been life-changing and life saving.
Dr. Sten Ekberg YOU ARE AMAZING!!! We need more doctors like you in the world.
Congratulations on your clinic! Just my story. As a 53 year old runner of 20 plus years and low carb since 2018, I’ve had issues with hormonal belly after OMAD & consistent 20:4 fasting. Ive never been overweight but things are shifting. Anyone else out there with this issue? It’s frustrating.
Could be higher cortisol from running and fasting ..
@@peterminton8105 Excellent advice Peter. I have a low amount of muscle and also low testosterone. A double whammy! And then on top of it, I'm vegetarian so eating a low-carb steak is not an option for me. I guess I'm kind of screwed unless I want to give us the vegetarian thing. Do you think I should increase my protein through protein shakes (I'm ok with whey) as long as I'm doing some strength training exercises? I'm skinny in my arms and legs but wayyyyy too much fat in the gut. And my body fat is coming in at 35% on my home scale which I know is crazy. So your "skinny fat" comment really made a lot of sense to me. I know I need to focus on building muscle.
Following your courses have helped me a great deal, Dr. I’m down to 195 now; from 275, and getting stronger by the day! Respect.
Thank you MIDWEST MOE for sharing your great results and helping inspire others. That is so awesome. I am thrilled that you have seen such great results. Keep it up! 😄
Congratulations, Midwest! I'm almost exactly in your situation at the moment. I'm 6'2" and 285 and hoping to lose the excess as fast as possible. May I ask how long it took you to drop from 275 to 195?
Wow. I'm 82.5kg and want to lose 10kg.
Congrats bro. How many months did this take? I’m on a weight loss journey myself.
@@RichardHarlos I’m not sure, to be honest. I was playing around at first. Once I started Keto, then OMAD, along with walking everyday, the pounds fell off pretty fast. I have some weights as well, but I don’t go too heavy with those, working out a few times a week. I had martial arts injuries for years. Thought the pain would last for life… It was inflammation from my diet. Unbelievable really. Diet is key, along with intermittent fasting. I am 48 now, and n better shape than I have been in over 20 years. I’ll be 185 soon; back to my natural weight. Listen to the doc, it will change your life.
Great video explaining it. I started my Keto diet + IF around 2 weeks ago after piling up too much weight in the last 2.5 years. I decided to go on for 100 days to see the results. I am at a 2-4 hour feeding window and I feel better every day getting after getting over the Keto flu period. To all, just make sure you don't reduce your calorie intake too much and take long walks instead of running. I will start with HIIT in a week or 2. Meditation and reading are two other things that helps to reduce cortisol. Good luck with your journey and make sure it's sustainable
Drink electrolytes and you won’t get the flu.
I like the way you explain I think you are a honest and kind person
started cutting about 90% of my carbs and only eating 2 meals at 10 am and 4pm and fasting the rest of the time. I am relatively skinny but have a big belly. 54yo male
within 2 weeks I lost 10 pounds. If I only knew it was so easy. I'll be getting smaller pants very soon.
Fantastic!
Congratulations on your new clinic 💖 An absolute testament to your passion and dedication. I for one (a 4 year stroke survivor) and so much healthier because of you and your teachings. I have definitely taken your basic principles and customized to be “my” personal and healthy diet. Getting ready to tweak again as I am about 20 pounds from goal. With mobility issues (which are also getting better because of my healthy diet), I have to follow a diet that gets me to a healthy weight without exercise so that the exercise I can do focuses on mobility and cardiovascular health
Yes doc congratulations u r doing a great job wish tht was close to me I am in south Africa 👏👏👏
Hi, Dr. Sten, thanks for this video. I started my intermittent fasting 3 days ago because I have a dream of finishing a marathon. I am 54 y.o. and I weigh 82 kilograms.
I powerlift 3 days a week, fixing to head to the gym now. When I get back I’ll be cooking a porkchop with a sunny side up egg that simmers in the rendered fat. I will not think about eating again until tonight. You are the one who put me on this path and I can’t thank you enough. Congratulations on your new location and I have tons of family in Georgia so one day I hope to pay you a visit. Thanks Doc!
What’s your carb intake like? I also lift!
Thank you • SaltRock. Pork chop. Now you're getting me hungry. See you in Georgia. 😄
@@ginax8307 very little, don’t know exactly. I do not eat any processed foods, starchy veggies or snacks just any kind of fatty meat and green veggies. I do eat about a half cup of nuts before a session. In case you’re wondering I’m 55 years old and once a pre-diabetic.
How is eating pork healthy
@@ShadrachTheThird It's not. This channel is some weird fake doctor stuff.
Finally, a common sense approach to weight loss. Thank you very much Dr. Ekberg for being truthful with the public. I admire your intelligence and willingness to share this information without using gimmicks or moneymaking schemes like so many others do. God bless you and keep up the good work.
Yet another great video-I just started an alternate day fast, and I already love it- 66 yo, 80+% plaque psoriasis, 260lbs.
Thanks!
Thank You @williamskentzos9540 so much for showing your appreciation and supporting the channel, and for helping me get the message of health out to the world. 🙏 🏆 😄
Thank You @drekberg so much for showing your appreciation and supporting the channel, and for helping me get the message of health out to the world. 🙏 🏆 😄
Hi doc, you're advice helped me lose 75 pounds just another 20 to go but the progress is slowing down and its getting tougher but thanks.
So excited for you - You have turned my health around and I too want to help others. Cannot thank you enough 🙏
Congrats on the new premises, really excited for you and the impact you are going to have on the community.
You literally saved my life; I was Prediabetic with fatty liver, on medication. Now I completely Healthy and with more energy that ever !!!
Thank you for sharing the wealth of knowledge. You are a HERO 🦸
Congratulations on your new clinic!!!
Diabetes and a fatty liver isn't life threatening lol, calm down Muppet
Great to hear, man. Glad you're doing better. And don't worry about BigBitchBen who commented above. Don't sweat it. God bless.
@@TheJuicyjunk yeah, they are life threatening. especially diabetes.
Thank you Dr Sten. I have been on intermittent fasting for for three weeks now. Last week I didn't eat for two days. I lost 5kg. Today I am on my second day of no food. Thinking of going like this for five days. My goal is to move from 95kg to 80kg in four months.
I have been doing 18 hour fasting since 2019. I eat my two daily meals in a 6 hour period, from 8am-2pm, breakfast and lunch. I lost 20 lbs, I feel great, and my lipid panel is much better. Fasting is sustainable, you have more energy, and feel more healthy also. If I get hungry after 2pm, I eat a handful of pistachios or pecans and I get satisfied until the next day.
when I started OMAD I dropped 30 pounds in less than two months... it's actually crazy how good IF is for u
I'm so grateful for finding your channel on UA-cam. The quality of education i get from consuming your contents is priceless. I really appreciate your effort to educating people and improving all of our lives!
I live in Bulgaria dr. Ekerg and I am Keto an OMAD the most of the days, and I WILL THANK YOU FOR YOUR GREAT WORK!🙏God bless you and your family. I am wishing you all the best luck in your life and workplace! It's such an honour to learn from you.
dude you are consistently awesome. I'd love to see you and Dr Jason Fung team up, thank you for all you do!
Pradip Jamandas would be the perfect trio 👍
Thank you Mike. Now there's an idea. 😄
Thank you from croatia. I started IF and OMAD. Cut almost all carbs. No sugar. No alcohol. No processed food. ( the bread is really tough as the bakeries make such good bread here!!). Ive lost 20 pounds in 2 months!! I feel fantastic. Im almost 54 and i feel wonderful! I cant thank you enough for your excellent explanations and encouragement on your channel!!
YES....YES....YES..I STARTED CUTTING CARBS 3 1/2 WEEKS AGO, AFTER WATCHING ONE OF YOUR CARD CUTTING VIDEOS, AND HAVE LOST 10 #'S AND EVEN BETTER THAN THAT....''NO MORE CRAVINGS!!....NONE!!!! IT'S LIKE A MIRACLE!!....NO EFFORT!!....NO SUFFERING!! like I thought it would be like....Call it what you will, but I have no one else to credit 4 this CURE but YOU and your videos!!! I'm sure too, it also was at the right time, right place in my 77 yr OLD life, but I really think I can finally say/boast, I'm over the hump, yet it was the same craveless feelings I had right from day one....no difference, simply put, all it took was just to not put anything sweet/carbs in my mouth and still eat everything else, and at first I over ate thinking that might hide my cravings, yet slowly every day since, I find even my hunger is diminishing , and have to remind myself to eat something during the day....CRAZY I know but I'm on a roll and it's not a sweet roll 4 a change!! I'll keep posting as time goes on, but I really think I got this!!
I cut out sugar 4 Weeks ago - it was like a "cold turkey", reduced Crabon-Hydrates by much, if i eat them i prefer whole grain. I am in keto now for 3 weeks and it feels wonderful!
Dr. Ekberg is one of the great superstars of the world. Instead of entertaining them, he positively changes and adds years to their lives.
I love your pragmatic approach. Good stuff Dr Sten
Thank you Scrap & Pallet Man.😄
He isn't a doctor
@@TheJuicyjunk WHAT DO YOU MEAN "ISN'T A DR?" YES HE IS
@@TheJuicyjunk he still gets the job done, and many people benefit from his advice. You'll not wind up dead following his directions.
@@TheJuicyjunk STOP
Thank you so much. I have been on keto a couple of times and lately i have come off the wagon and become addicted to sugar and carbs again. I need to get back on track and it's no joke i gotta do it now. Your video came in at the right time. Appreciate it very much!
Thank-you Dr. Ekberg. I put your principles into practice and moved my A1C from pre-diabetic to normal. I also lost 78 Lbs. so far…. You rock, Doc.
Congratulations on your new clinic. I wish I lived In the States. God Bless from Oz Down Under
Thank you Kimber1911. We are super excited 😄
❤❤❤!!! Спасибо за русскоязычный перевод, как хорошо, что я могу слышать такие полезные советы. Очень понравилось, как перейти к одноразовому питанию в день, сдвигая завтрак и ужин к обеду. Как можно меньше сладкого, чтобы давать организму перерабатывать жир на животе!!! Спасибо за спокойный голос диктора.
I live in Nicaragua and have started LCHF and OMAD about 6 weeks ago. You have taught me so much and I am truly a Health Champion. I have a daughter in North Carolina, and next time I visit her, I will make a trip to Georgia to visit your new clinic. Good luck to you and God bless you for all you do for your patients and followers.
Thank you again. Dr. Ekberg!!! Best wishes with your new clinic.
Tell it BROTHER!!! MUCH RESPECT, MORE LOVE, WE WILL MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!
GOD BLESS YOU!!! ALL GLORY TO GOD!!!
I started my weight loss journey in December 2021, and with the help of videos like these, IF, Keto, OMAD, and exercise, ive been able to lose 90 lbs. thank you Dr. Ekberg!
❤
NINETY lbs?? That's amazing
Such a lovely helpful doctor i wish more doctors were as good as Dr Sten.
Thanks
Thank You @ThirumeninathanMurugan so much for showing your appreciation and supporting the channel, and for helping me get the message of health out to the world. 🙏 🏆 😄
Congratulations on making your dream come true. I am loving your channel and just getting in to all of your teachings. Thanks for all you do!
I have so many questions but I have been watching your videos for about 3 weeks now and they make complete sense to me. I am on meds for diabetes, but all last fall and winter my sugar ran 300 despite the meds. Yesterday I had a reading of 100. Today it’s 124. Not a “ normal” number but so much better. I started keto two or three weeks ago but still learning how I respond to carbs. Sometimes I can eat more of them, sometimes not. I was eating two times a day with sometimes a snack of cheese or nuts. Today I’m starting Omad. I have put on 3 pounds but I’m also sick. In 2013 I lost 40 pounds and was so slim and had lost 20 pounds previously by lowering carbs because of diabetes but it was still so high compared to keto. I lost the 40 by practical starvation and eating no particular food, any old food I grabbed but only ate a tiny bit. I wasn’t eating good fats or vegetables on a regular basis. But my diabetes was gone so I thought. So when my life situation changed a year later, the weight came back and just went up and up, only to gain a whopping 72 pounds. I’ve lost 40, and I so want to lose another 35 to 40. I have mg hubby on board too and he is a tough cookie as he is also diabetic and obese but he has lost 60 pounds over the years, he is addicted to sugar so it has been hard to get him totally on this. I really want to tell everyone I know how this all works but when I try, they tell me I’m crazy and their doctor or endocrinologist told them to eat low fat and not to fast, etc: my own doctor told me to eat plant based. Wow so he wants me to eat fruit and wheat products and thinks my sugar will improve? I think not.
can you list to me the videos that struck you
Try watching FAT Fiction on you tube....it will help greatly 🙏🙏🙏
I lost 36 pounds last year . Partly down to desire for change but I adopted better habits such as 10000 steps every working day. Eating more plant based foods such as salads/fresh veg and portion control I calculated I consuming around 1400 to 1500 cals per day. I avoided hyper processed foods such as Pringles, crisps, healthy snack bars and sweet biscuits.
I didnt go keto I did eat jacket poatoes but not chips, I did eat bread but only sourdough as a meal with eggs never with marmalade or as a snack. I made small incremental changes but was far from keto . I ate more cheese in ratio terms but not in totality compared with previously. I ate more eggs rather than cereal such as porridge and fruit (which I never added sugar to)
I found that in the Autumn of last year I had got a little complacent with my new habits and decided to check out interval fasting and ate within a 9 hour window out of 24 which worked brilliantly as long as I opted for only known healthy foods such as nuts 25 grams etc and ate eggs etc but I still continued to eat sourdough bread with eggs and potato /rice with main meals but keeping a check on portion size especially of carbs.
Success so far but I have a way to go yet.
Fortunately I have never had a pre diabetic blood test result so I will keep on track and look forward to day I achieve my goal of a healthy bmi. More important than ever as I am now in my 50’s
The common theme to success seems to be adopting healthy habits that effortlessly fit into your lifestyle and become instinctive and not a chore. Similar with exercise ……..dance if you love it, swim if you enjoy or if you love the great outdoors purchase a good pair of walking shoes and go for a regular walk, borrow your neighbours dog and offer to walk it if that helps a neighbour…….
I have been on your Programs for 4 weeks now and lost 5kilo of body weight OMAD and 3 hours of Exercise per week... My Fungal Toe nail is slowly Healing after 20 years with this yellow problem. Also my wife says everything looks better and somethings look bigger ( if you know what I Mean Lol ) Two more months to go and Already very Satisfied with this Plan... Thank You Dr Champ.
APPLAUSE, APPLAUSE!!! 🎉🎉🎉 You've covered EVERYTHING in this video! I'm sharing this one with several people I love because it breaks my heart how confused and discouraged they get, because I've been there. ❤. And big congrats on your new facility!
Thank you Lisa. The greatest compliment you can give is to help me help more people by sharing the videos with others so thank you for helping others ❤ .😄
I've kind of gone about this backwards. When I started WFH, I didn't eat breakfast already, but then decided, due to the lack of movement I should probably cut back on food, so cut out lunch. I've recently stopped snacking after my main meal, so now I'm OMAD. Since then, I've started researching IF and Keto, so now cutting the carbs.
I guess I should add I've lost 45lb in 6 months without really putting any more thought into it than I laid out above.
Thank you Dr! I just ended my 5 day water fast, I followed your video on how to safely eat again and ate what I had in stock as i had no plan. It was almond butter, 1/2cup sauerkraut, 1/2 cup kefir and 1 cup veg broth. I put on my timer and ate 1 item every hour. 6hrs has now passed and I'm surprised that i am not even hungry.
I was disappointed I only lost 2.5kg. I was doing 20min light rebounding on my new Cellerciser from days 1-4. Day 5 i was to tired.
You answered my disappointment.
Time to make more changes so I can tap into my body fat.
Thank you for helping me understand my problems. 😊❤
Veg broth? Almond butter? You need real proteins, fat and gelatine.
Congratulations on your new clinic! And thank you for all you've taught us.
Congrats on the new clinic! I love your videos from Canada
Thank you Carole Mullen. And Thank you. 😄

25:19 🎯 *Committing to understanding the body's functioning for health mastery involves staying informed and engaged with valuable health-related content.*
For me, the key is stress. When I am not stressed at all, fasting and low carbs is very easy. When I am stressed, it is almost impossible. I found that when I exercise I eat less, and until I watched this video I was confused by that. I think what is happening is that the exercise cuts the stress, so I end up with fewer cravings because I have less stress. I've never tried meditation - I wouldn't know where to start and I'm not confident it would work for me. What I do instead, besides exercise, is take frequent breaks from work. Reading a fiction book works well for my break.
Also, I don't live in Georgia any more, but I used to live about 2 mile from where that clinic is. Just my luck.
Rhodiola has helped me a lot with stress and focus. 🙏🏽 I wish you best of luck and blessings. Also during that time of the month it helps with mood.
Was doing exactly what you are saying here. After 8 months I was down to two meals a day, Feeling satiated. Lost 30 pounds. And especially my insomnia disappeared. THEN I got diagnosed with Alpha Gal about 4 months ago. Finding it very hard.
Understanding how carb intake and the fat burning process works should be taught to parents as part of their child's school program. So many parents keep buying and feeding their kids processed garbage filled with sugar and additives without giving it a second thought. Dr. Ekberg's videos are inspirational and have helped me improve my quality of life tremendously. Thanks!
Thnx for expanding my view, didn’t thought as far. In addition i would like to add that schools and ESPECIALLY the learning program would have to be upgraded to make this lifestyle mandatory, imagine for a second how happy all of us would be if everyone was healthy.
I’m happy to see that a lot of people are waking up and helping society forwards…
teaching by example is the way to go, so if you’re a parent, teach your kids, no matter of their age. Plant a seed, grow a forest❤️
