    A metabolic disorder is when something goes wrong with your metabolism, making it difficult for your cells to access the fuel you eat or the energy stored within your body. When disorders of the metabolism get a foothold, they can progress to conditions such as insulin resistance, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), and type 2 diabetes. But this progression can be short-circuited. This video gives you the parameters to understand your current metabolic health and practical ways to improve it.

    I'm 58 and was diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes 4 months ago with an hbA1C of 6.7 - After 4 months of a keto diet I'm down to 5.7 (no medication). I was only eating low carb about 80% of the time but when I was it was VERY low (around 10g carb a day). I'm pretty pleased with myself.

      Keep up the great work. I have been eating fairly keto as well as fasting and have seen some improvement. But being a 45 year long alcoholic has and is my biggest challenge. I am waiting for legalized psilocin therapy which has been show to have benefit in studies. Unfortunately the only place you can get medically supervised therapy is in Canada. Oregon is currently in the process of the beginnings of clinics but in the US it is not allowed to be called therapeutic. Keep up your journey and stay well.

    U.K. based 59 year old who drives trucks.. ex military and was physically fit up until 6 years or so ago. A change of country (I used to live/work in Spain) and job.. now a trucker working away 5 days… things have changed for me. Started ‘sugar free’ about 3 weeks ago. No sweets, no crisps, and minimum processed foods(shocked as to how many supermarket foods have ‘sugar’ added) and no alcohol… still picking my way through what one can eat but I feel different than I used to. Mental clarity is ‘up’ (had a couple of ‘brain fog’ events though) and appetite down.. No desire to eat or drink rubbish… NONE! I do need to start exercising again.. but when working that can be difficult (most of the times parked up in dangerous locations next to highways etc) trying to do something that is ‘meaningful’ (an ex soldiers mentality I guess) walking and some resistance bands have to do(even being able to walk can be impossible at times!)
    I suffer from a couple of chronic complaints and my consultant suggested I should change jobs… that’s possibly going to happen.. as I sit most of the day which does me no good at all.
    Have been watching and following a few UA-camrs regards healthy eating etc and have managed to change a small part of my life with little effort(other than trying to read the contents labels on packaging)
    and learning as I go… thanks for sharing your knowledge it has initiated a fundamental change in my eating habits.. all for the better.

    Dr. Robert Lustig and Dr. Richard Johnson have a great talk on youtube about Fructose.
    Personally, I found no carbs ( or at least only the trace carbs in meat ), was the best for me. Any eating of carbs tended to set me back towards more carbs, much like just trying to mentally not eat cake, ice cream and cookies. Nature limits carb availability, modern society does not. Have to be very careful with carbs! I now don't crave or want any, but it took well over a year, probably closer to 2, to get to that point.
    I have also found drinking only water gets to a point where I only crave water. It has never yet worked out well for me to add any other drinks in as they all make me want to keep drinking more of something other than water.
    We all have to find what works for ourselves, but meat, salt and water so far ( at 3 years ) has been by far the best for me. Good luck with whatever path is taken, it is the starting and making the effort that get one on a better path. Never fear falling off either, get right back on and keep at it, you will get there!

It is Johns (with an “s”) Hopkins Medicine, not John Hopkins. Although it was his first name, it is Johns, not John. It was passed down from his grandmother, whose middle name was Johns, to his dad, then to him. I love your informative, scientific channel.

    • @beckygillaspy
      @beckygillaspy  9 місяців тому

      Hi Karen, many factors lead to the loss of electrolytes (i.e., keto, fasting, sweating, exercise) so the more of these activities you do the more you'll want to replace. You can have your electrolyte levels checked through a blood test. Until then, you can gauge how you feel starting with a 1/4 to 1/2 stick a day and adjusting as needed.
