7 Skin Signs of INSULIN RESISTANCE (Root Cause 2024) WARNING: Graphic
Вставка
- Опубліковано 20 чер 2024
- Skin signs of insulin resistance? Many skin conditions we chalk up to bad genetics and/or bad luck actually have a hidden root cause that can be discovered and corrected. Only by understanding the connection between your skin condition and your metabolic health can you begin to take corrective steps.
Use this video about skin signs of insulin resistance as a guide for yourself and your family; the skin conditions you were told were genetic and chronic/progressive can actually be improved or reversed with a proper human diet.

I was 325lbs, had rosacea, and always had “sores” that never seemed to heal. I lost 100lbs doing low carb (keto) and both skin conditions cleared up in a matter of weeks of starting the diet. Not to mention, all my carpal tunnel pain, and all my other joint pains went away. Definitely felt awesome, and knew exactly what “cured” me. Well worth the attempt if anyone is considering it.
Awesome story, congratulations!
@@herbladyHCG Thank you 😊 I actually fell off the wagon over the last year or so, but never went crazy on carbs and was able to maintain pretty well. Gained about 20lbs over a year. BUT, during the holidays this year, I went up another 15lbs! So I’ve started keto again, been 4 days, and feeling better already. I love my sugars and sweets, but after a week or 2, I don’t miss it. 😁
How about excessively ashy skin that's dry?
@@jkelso1384 I’m glad to hear that. 😁 Seriously one of the best things I ever did. 1st week or 2 is tough. But I was at the point where I couldn’t climb stairs without being winded, and was wearing braces on my elbows & wrists… sometimes all at the same time. Really, everything got better. I’ve had one Carpal tunnel pain “flare up” in 3 years, & it wasn’t even bad. Wish you luck! Don’t hesitate to reach out to me (or anyone) if you have questions!
@Graci T Thank you! 😁
I whipped out papers before on my doctor, of research I did online, and she just about lost it. She asked me if I thought I was smarter than her, and I asked her what was wrong with doing reaearch? And she said there was so much misinformation online, and SHE went to medical school, not me. So I quit going to her. But there are a lot of doctors who don't like for their patients to do reaearch... Sad.
I had a doctor do that i reversed my diabetes and lost 89 pounds with the keto diet. When i told him that he told me to get off keto asap i was killing myself and he was the doctor he knew best 2 days later i had a new doctor.
Very smart thing to do…
You are in charge of your healthcare team, and any doctor who thinks they are smarter than you, because of four years of medical training (training, not education) needs to be reeducated…
It's time we took CONTROL of our own lives. Doctors don't know everything. Training? Not really that much. It's a lot of memorization and 'following the group'. Any thinking patient wants that doctor who will be humble enough to LOOK for the cause and try to heal the patient. What we have now is 'sickcare' not 'healthcare'. Doctors don't want to have to explain themselves, and it's OUR bodies!
I have a masters in chemistry, I don't tell my Dr this on the first meeting not until I hear what is going to prescribe for why I'm there. If I find out he getting big. Kick backs on the drug. I go to another Dr. If it's a statin. Ask questions.
A good doctor would listen and praise you for researching for yourself and be over the moon that you came to them to get more information and to discuss ❤
My sister in law has PCOS and always had all these skin things going on. She's been trying to get pregnant for 14 years too. Not long after starting keto her skin has cleared up and she is expecting her first child in December!!!
Update: She came a month early. Their sweet girl had her 3rd birthday party today. She is a wild one and such a funny little girl! And truly a blessing!
Fantastic news, feed that baby the proper human diet.
"Keto babies" is a thing! Dr. Fung recommends that women starting keto - even if in their 40s and 50s - make sure they are using contraception unless they want to get pregnant. Congrats to your SIL on the baby!
wow, amazing story
Have seen a similar happy ending for a good friend of mine who had PCOS and after changing her diet got pregnant !
@@zonderbaar That's so awesome and exciting!!
I was 240lbs. I stopped eating and drinking processed sugar completely and cut my carbs in half. My skin rashes, hives, acne, joint pain and gi bloating and pain, hard heartbeat and diarrhea just improved largely within a week of changing my diet. It's been over a year and I've lost 93lbs and all of my ailments have healed. My body just generally feels great and my bmi is within normal range now. My quality of life is just so much better than I could've imagined.
Bmi is such a deceiving figure. It only considers height and weight. No body composition at all. There's literally no point in it. Secondly I would like to point out that HbA1c is also out dated. If you practice fasting for 24 hrs once a week it will affect this greatly
One needs to consider chronic stress as well. Chronic stress is a well-proven, well-known contributing factor to hyperinsulinemia and metabolic syndrome. Chronic stress + poor diet + sedentary lifestyle is a sure way to end up with metabolic syndrome. Correcting the diet and adding activity will help, but might still not be enough if the chronic stress is not addressed too.
So true!
Eating less than 150g carbs for sedentary people is shown to raise HPA axis activity. Literally increasing stress hormones that lead to insulin resistance.
It would be great if more doctors recommended therapists who can help with meditation and/ or other stress reduction tools along with the necessary diet and exercise changes. These all go together.
When sugar became a commodity all these diseases started to become more and more common 😢
Sugar is subsidized by the government. If we had to pay the exact $ cost the cheap packaged products would not be so cheap. And it’s costing us our health!
read the book SUGAR BLUES
@sploofmonkey It's a lethal killer too, and they know it! The doctors lie about a lot. All for money.
@@vkngwmn6636 that book changed my life back in 1973!
That's for sure. Im 74 and looking back i can realize this in real time.
I had all sorts of skin conditions ….
Acne, really bad dark patches around my neck and underarms, even on my hands, really bad scalp issues, dry skin, especially on my feet, and once I started keto, everything started clearing up amazingly. Like magic.
I also had severe PCOS and after being keto for a few months, my periods came back, after years of not having one. I’ve seen less facial hair, and I have lost over 60 lbs in four months. My energy is through the roof, my knee and back pains are gone. I could not be more thankful for Keto. Thank you Dr. Berry!!!
Next up…. Keto baby!!!
That’s insane!
Thank you for sharing. This is so encouraging.
Keto is veggies and meat right?
What is your diet like? What specific meats do you eat? I need what you have.

I have insulin resistance I have psoriasis if I didn't have my kids when I was a teenager I wouldn't have children in my 20's it's part of the reason I'm infertile also i suffer pcos and the 2 go hand in hand with women.
@@marciphillips8682 why wouldn't you be able to have kids in your 20's? Due to the pcos? I too am insulin resistant and have pcos and psoriasis and hashimotos. Oddly enough, I had my first child when I was 30 and my 2nd when I was 40. Do you take metformin? Just wanted to give you some encouragement if you still want to have more children...❤

Treat the disease, not the symptoms. Tired of doctors saying, "I've got a pill for that."
Yes! 👏🏽 👏🏽 👏🏽
People in the UK where I'm from love asking the question "do you have a pill for this?"
They never even think about the internal organs damaged every time one of these pills is taken.
I kept telling my doctors that I did not want to treat the symptoms, I wanted to find the root cause and fix it! Hubby and I started the keto way of eating and my symptoms went away! They were edema and a severe rash that would break out every couple of months. All my doctors wanted to do was prescribe creams and pills.
I wish doctors would tell me I've got a pill for that'...., better than nothing..CFS.
I'm 33 years old. I had psoriasis since I was about 15. Few months ago I started intermittent fasting and low carb diet. The results were fantastic. My psoriasis practically disappeared and I lost 12kg.
❤️
My skin and digestive problems disappeared when on keto. Then I stopped my diet, all of it came back. Just started again on keto about 12 days ago and incredible improvements are already being experienced.
@NotedJoah BOT spam. Reported.
I had really annoying adult acne (I never had acne when I was a teenager, but I also wasn't obese when I was a teenager). A dermatologist even put me on doxycycline for my acne (!) which decimated my gut microbiome and gave me diarrhea, and it only partially helped my acne.
But on keto and intermittent fasting, I got to a healthy weight AND my skin cleared up! My skin looks healthier now than it's looked since I was a teen, it's pretty cool.
(I just want to add -- for anyone who's vegan or vegetarian -- yes, keto can be vegan or vegetarian too. Carnivore is one way to be keto, but not the only way; so if you want to go keto and you don't want to eat meat, you can. For instance, I substitute cold-pressed coconut oil for butter. So please know, there are lots of ways to eat keto 🥰)
I went to the doctors and found I had an A1C of 11.3. I had new skin tags browning of some skin and I thought it was a yeast infection in my groin that never went away. I started keto and made small steps in lowering my A1C but when I started lifting weights and intermittent fasting, I got below pre diabetes levels in less than a year. I also only dropped 50lbs. I should still lose another hundred pounds but my last test had me 5.3. The one before that was 5.5. One giant meal around 5 everyday. I ate what I could for an hour and then that was it for the next 24 hours. That is when I saw everything change. I have since done random long fasts. It gets easier to go 3 or 4 days without food after being on OMAD for a while. The longest I went without food was 11 days and i can't lie, you do not have a lot of energy during this time but you feel great once you slowly start to eat again. Not saying everybody has to do this, just sharing my experience.
Be careful, Shane Warne just died of a heart attack after a 14 day fluid diet. I would think a few days is ok, but more than 6 or 7 has risks.
@JamboRiffs probably too much fluids or had some health problem Already going on
Awesome
I started keto in March 2021. I feel much better, more energy, less fatigue. I have gone from size 18 to 14. I keep researching for information. Thank you for your videos. (78 years old)
Awesome Sharon...age 62 and exactly same results . Happy for both of us ❤️👍
@ Sharon this is wonderful at your age. Congrats.
Please did you have any health issues before you started?
I want to try keto diet but I'm bring talked out of it because of my hbp and heart issues.
Kindly reply. Thank you.
Impressive! Congratulations
Inspiring!
@@vivianechukwuka5510 I just saw your request for a reply. I was not feeling well: bloating, gas, constipation, poor digestion, inflammation, insulin resistance, 60-80# overweight, poor hair and skin. Anxiety. Dehydration. I am glad I started keto and intermittent fasting. I feel much better. I will continue on keto until I find the right foods to eat. But no or low sugars/carbohydrates. I hope this is helpful to you. Blessings.
I just realized I have no more skin tags!!! They disappeared sometimes during the last 18 months I was on a keto diet. I just checked and they are gone. They were in the back of my neck where I don't check everyday. I also came down fron 325 to 215 pounds since January 2019.
Congrats!
Man, I got a ton of them, I hope that it will work for me too.
Best advice to get started it’s very overwhelming so many Keto videos

(With very little faith being put in the A1C. If you researched how unreliable it is, you'd be shocked. 27% accurate in the research findings of one group! That's abysmal. Another paper explained that everyone's red blood cells live different lengths of time in the circulation... Search "glycated Erythrocyte survival"

My sugar was so out of control that I swear it was oozing out of my pores. I was so itchy, I would scratch in my sleep and wake up with bloody nails. It was absolutely miserable. Tomorrow marks week 10 of cutting all sugar, and my skin is completely clear.
Hello. Congratulations. I have so many questions. I can't quit Sugar. I have tried, I'm not string willed that way. How did you do it? Where did you start? Was it cold turkey? Thank you so much.
Hey , can you tell me old about it ? What you did ? I left sugar cold turkey but is kind of hard with anxiety
Congratulations
My mother has psoriasis, and when she started Keto, her psoriasis expanded further throughout her body. After a few months of investigation and watching Dr. Berry’s videos on the skin topics, plus my moms doctor’s advise (her doctor is great she believes in metabolic health). We started an elimination diet. That meant basically switching to a more carnivore version of the Keto diet. It looks like in my mother’s case she started consuming more of the night shades and spinach, and high oxalate and anti- nutrient foods when she started keto than before she did she started keto. So now that she’s eating mostly fatty meat, supplementing with vitamin D3 11.000 a day plus omega 3 rich diet and supplement. Bone broth and organ meat. He psoriasis is receding. The itching is going away in a matter of 2 weeks.. she’s 68 years old. Thank you for the advise Dr. Berry!
nathali2023 I have also had to eliminate nightshades. I avoid citrus, alcohol, and most acidic fruits.
Trouble with a carnivore diet is that it gives you extremely bad breath. I have a beauty salon and many of my clients are cutting out carbs and starch; they didn’t have bad breath before and now you can hardly stand over them due to their breath. It is hard to point it to them.
How on god’s name do you stick with a diet like that????
@@waitwhat6882 Bad breath is not a noted symptom of a carnivore diet. Don't base any judgements on a single UA-cam comment. I've viewed thousands of videos in the last year and a half, during my study of nutrition, including almost always scanning the comments section (there IS often valuable insight and video critique there), and don't recall this (bad breath) being ever mentioned as a symptom. Most serious carnivore's report the best health result they've ever experienced.
Given such results, it's unlikely they'll ever depart the general carnivore lifestyle. Remember, the supreme issue here, is that it's the extreme carbohydrate diet (SAD) Standard American Diet that is the BIG BIG problem, that must be avoided at all costs, as it ALWAYS directly causes (given a few decades of consumption/abuse) organ damage and failure. It's a difficult habit to kick, given that the high blood sugar volumes are extremely addictive, so it's very much a substance abuse issue.
This video is discussing damage to just one of the body's organs - the skin. But note that similar damage in varying degrees, is simultaneously occurring to all organs throughout the body, all directly caused by the long term extreme blood sugar levels and insulin levels.
The human body is a wondrously smart and complex design, and it works very very hard trying to keep us alive. It's still almost a miracle that most people last quite a few decades on such a damaging diet as the extreme carbohydrate one, that is heavily promoted and recommended to us by those people making money by selling it on a mass production scale, and by the people they also manage to buy or influence.
Hope this helps.
I have been doing low carb for many years, but still suffer from random psoriasis flare ups. Only thing left to try is carnivore diet...
High chronic stress is another important factor in developing insulin resistance.
Absolutely! High stress causes high cortisol levels in your body, which, in turn, causes insulin levels to rise. A vicious cycle, but it can be broken. I’m doing EMDR therapy to release a lifetime of chronic stress. I’ve struggled with my weight most of my life, and sadly, came to realize the constant stress in my life caused by a mentally ill family member, sent my cortisols through the roof. With the EMDR therapy, I no longer self sooth with sweets and diet sodas. I’m now able to follow a low carbohydrate diet without the constant cravings for sweets and sodas.
@@minoutv7347, EFT, Sedona Method and others can produce the same results but invisibly to other people.
As they say Dress can kill you!! Causes many bad things to the body unfortunately
@@jcbulldog533 dress?!
Thank you for mentioning! Crucial to know.
I suddenly had rosacea and no doctor had any idea it was insulin resistance related. Super informative! Thank you.
I have terrible rosceca and had no idea. Time to do some research.
Great video. My dad went bald in his 20s. Me and my brother still have our hair. Lately I have been doing a carnivore diet, and before that I did keto to lose a substantial amount of body fat. This encourages me to stay on track. My father now has failing kidneys and is on dialysis due to his terrible diet, which is the same diet I was on since my mom did all the cooking when I lived with them. I use your videos as ammunition when they question my diet. They tell me eating bacon all the time will increase my triglycerides, so I sent my dad your video explaining that high triglycerides is caused by carbs and not fatty meat.
Can you tell me the 3 lab test he mentioned?

My mom is a wonderful cook of course with carbs. But over the years she has been trying her best to go low carb. I imagine a lot of us were brought up in the same situation. We are grateful to our wonderful mothers who cooked us meals everyday but now that we are on our own it is time for a change. Perhaps we can splurge a little bit when we go and visit dear old mom and dad and have some of those wonderfully prepared meals that may raise our blood sugar level a bit for our short visit.
I use to have these weird dry, red rashes at fandoms places. Doctors told me I had dermatitis, but couldn’t tell me why. I also had numerous skin tags. I had metabolic syndrome and was over a hundred pounds overweight. I started keto a year and a half ago. I’ve lost 80 pounds on keto, normalized my cholesterol, came off of blood pressure meds, and now have very healthy skin. No rashes and no new skin tags. Thanks Dr. Berry!!
Susie yes they did.

I wish more people listened to what their bodies are screaming at them and stop just accepting it.
Agreed!!
Don't think that's a fair comment. Most people are being told by their doctors that these things have nothing to do with insulin resistance. 🙄
@@angelrebekah9153 I think it’s fair, my body has lead me to become carnivore through reactiveness to fruits & veg. I slowly became keto & then carnivore without intending to. I only realised a few months ago that I had become a carnivore & I feel much better for it. ..
@@mEatToLive me too. !!!
@@angelrebekah9153 you mean many people look to doctors to validate thier lifestyle choices; don’t forget that Doctors must tread so lightly as to not offend people!
I gave up eating wheat flour and my skin tags went away. When it crept back into my diet small tags reappeared, and when I cut it back out of my diet, and the skin tags disappeared again. So I believe this is all true. I also have rosacea, psoriatic arthritis, and more of what you talk about. I don't need any more tests. Time for me to go Keto!
Dear Dr. Berry, One year ago at my annual checkup My A1C was at 6.2, and my doctor wanted to put me on metfomin. I saw my parents struggle with Type 2 diabetes, and I knew there had to be a better way. I found you, and your videos and binged watched many of them. Flash forward one year, following a keto diet I am 38 pounds lighter and my A1C is 5.2. I am now adding intermmittent fasting, and I continue to feel better. I just wanted to thank you for helping me. I hope you continue with your wonderful work. You are helping people everywhere. You are a blessing!
Were u ever put on Metformin ?
Well done, that's awesome!
J
6.2 is a normal reading for someone without any issues. That doctor just wanted to fool you into paying for metformin, so they could then diagnose and treat the side effects from it for an additional charge.
I did Metformin for a blip of time, made me feel so sick. You did it the better way than meds.
I’ve been doing carnivore for a few weeks, and my skin is almost completely clear of acne. That’s the first time in my adult life, and I’m 40.
Have you found that you don't eat as much or as often as you did before starting this diet?

I had severe Eczema and it got to the point that I started to get it on my face which was so bad. I tried everything from thick creams to topical ointment. Oatmeal creams to very expensive creams. Your video saved me form so much more breakouts and itching. Thank you! I am now strictly keto and my skin has not only cleared up but also my hair grows like crazy now! Thank you so much for this! I can once again wear makeup and I feel so much better. I also lost 20 pounds too. 💐
Thank you DR. I've known for 5 years I've had Insulin Resistance and PCOS...I take birth control and Metformin and have done nothing about it. I didn't think this was anything I could change. Your gentle video has encouraged me to take action. Thank you.
You can reverse this by reducing weight and improving lifestyle.
@@bhumikabhardwaj3525 Hello! Since watching this video I went to the weight loss center near my house and saw a dietician. I'm on meal replacements. I go to the gym every weekend with my cousin and make time twice a week to do it on my own. I'm working on being my best version of me
Please be careful with keto diet, studies show that it has a very increased risk of early mortality and heart disease among other side effects. I've had a few people develop those problems around me when on keto diet and some of them even died a few years after starting keto. I don't know why no one talks about the risks and adverse side affects, even when there's enough data to support it. Take care ❤
@@MayaMickaMicak Yes, keto isn’t healthy for everyone, but no diet is healthy for everyone, we're all different -- different genetics, different health history, different exercise abilities, different food preferences -- and what works for one person won't necessarily work for another person.
For instance, I don't eat meat, but my diet is still keto, and it's helped me get to a healthy BMI, cleared up my acne, and given me more energy. We each need to be our own health advocate and research what works best for us. There's too much individual variation for any one, single dietary paradigm to work the same way for everyone who tries it.
@@zxyatiywariii8 I agree with you. I also think no diet is perfect for EVERYONE, there's 8 billion people in the world and it would be strange that all of them thrive on the same diet. I'm glad that it's helping you! I heard keto is healthy for children with epilepsy and sometimes for weight loss, but that it should only be practiced short term. The problem is that a lot of influencers and UA-cam doctors promote and idolise the keto diet, they say it's going to cure every disease imaginable (which is not possible for any diet or medicine) and when some people experience serious side effects or react poorly and get even worse, instead of recommending something else, they ignore them, they just push more supplements, cutting out more food, and blame the patient for their body's bad reaction and worsening health. They refuse to listen to them without ever thinking that maybe keto is not for them. Sometimes it honestly seems like a cult lol. That's my experience since my father has forced me to be on the diet for years and he wouldn't accept that because of keto I got many serious and even chronic diseases (they have all cleared out when I stopped the diet), and he still to this day has a fridge full of supplements, follows a strict keto diet and he's getting more and more sick because of it, but he refuses to see it because he's been sold this dream and cure to all things that is keto. I left my first comment and this one because I never see any even slightly negative comments on these videos, so I wanted to be there for people who are experiencing side effects and are seeing that maybe this diet isn't for them, but feel like they're the ones who did something wrong since everyone else is saying that it cured everything from cancer to broken bones for them. I hope they will listen to their bodies and do what they know is right for them, no matter what anyone says. I know it's hard to seemingly be the only who is not getting better, not being cured, not having dramatic results, but trying to convince yourself of something that's clearly not happening is going to make everything worse, and if you need to leave- you are allowed to.
I hope you take care of yourselves whatever that means for you 💜
You’re the best doctor EVER! I’m from Mexico and my mom is a type 2 diabetic, today she scored the lowest A1C (6.1) since she was diagnosed, all because of your diet advice 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 the goal is 5.6. God bless you Dr. Berry 😀🙏🏻
Thank God for that, I know it's hard to eat well in Mexico if you rely on packaged foods. Everything is with added sugar and people love their coca cola.
Good luck to you!

As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one: For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
Romans:3:10,23 King James Version
Everyone is a sinner, one sin is enough to send you to hell, however God loves us and provides a way to Heaven, through Jesus Christ. The Lord Jesus Christ paid the full price for your sin past, present and future. He offers the free gift of eternal life to anyone who puts their trust in him to save them, not in their own good deeds which can NEVER save them.
I have a clear gospel presentation on my channel by a trustworthy pastor. Watch it, understand the gospel and believe it. Get saved today, it lasts for eternity.
These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.

@@MaximilianonMars thank you so much Max! I have already watched the video you recommended and as for Mexico you’re completely right, it’s not always that easy to find the healthiest options because the junk food it’s and will always be cheaper, but it’s definitely a choice, I struggled to let my Coca Cola addiction but now I’m past that thankfully 😀 it’s great to find such kind people like you here. God bless you always 🙏😀
@@MaximilianonMars Actually the opposite of what you've stated about food in Mexico... Everytime I go not only do I eat healthier (much more fresher fruits than we'd ever see here in the states)the freshly made juices,lots of walking I always come back at least 12/15 lbs. Lighter.. My cousins & I buy fresh fruits & veggies at a market rarely do we go to a supermarket.. If I'd live in Cuernavaca with them I'd certainly be alot thinner..Granted the have packaged food there as well & my cousin's were shocked to see the huge sizes of "Big Gulps"that are consumed here!! They had no idea what was inside them & when I told them they said no wonder USA has huge amount of very obese people Which is true

I got onto a keto diet about a year ago, I lost twenty-five pounds and about a dozen skin tags! Yeah!
Wow, did the tags just shrink?
@veganvoyager according to dr. Berry’s video about skin tags, they do. You should watch that video.
@@BenicioUkulele5811 They kind of shrivelled up and fell off as just bits of dead skin over a space of a few months. Great!
@@CosmicClaire99 thank you! That’s great, hopefully the same happens for me!
@@angelat17 thanks, I will!
One of the worst skin conditions I noticed disappeared on the keto diet is very cracked and dry heels. I probably spent hours on them shaving and sanding off the tough cracked skin but I was surprised to see that it has almost disappeared. I’ve also lost a couple of dress sizes and I’ve only been on this diet for about 7 weeks. Generally I feel my overall health is a lot better. Wounds and cuts heal really quick. There’s something about loading up on carbs which causes a lot of bad side effects on the body.
I was diagnosed with insulin resistance at 14. I’m almost 23 now and no longer have it. Keto saved me at 18
I have a 12 year old with severe acne. She eats a lot of bread. She has had Ha1c done because I’m Type2. I guess we are going to change our diets!
Every aspect of this problem is related to SUGAR ingestion. Imagine that.
all Carbohydrates turn into glucose in the blood , Sugar is one of the worst , but there's many more .
I call them the five whites. Potato or starchy vegs including beans, rice all colors, bread all colors this is everything made with flour no matter the grain, pasta all colors, and sugar all colors
I dont use sugar. So not true.
@@amessenger4664 IF YOU EAT CARBS , YOU ARE INGESTING GLUCOSE DAMN TAB
@@jimmyhvy2277 I stay away from carbs as much as possible. They hurt my tummy make it feel as if it will burst.
This explains why I developed eczema during 6 of my 8 pregnancies. My doctor told me I was allergic to my babies. As soon as they were born, the eczema disappeared within 20 minutes. However, I also had gestational diabetes with 6 of my 8 pregnancies. Now, looking back… that eczema was a sign of the gestational diabetes! Nothing at all to do with “ allergy to my baby” ! Thank you for your very enlightening videos. My youngest is now 22 yrs old and I follow your healthy lifestyle eating guidelines, take no medication and have a superb A1C score. I’m 68 yrs old and weigh 125 pounds. I ‘m so grateful for my excellent health and well-being. 😊
My hubby has around 10 skin tags, itchiness on the back and a big belly. It hurts when he just ignore me whenever i say don’t eat these foods and have your blood level checked !
Thanks so much for this Dr Berry!
I had this with multiple skin tags. Started an eating plan of my own. Eating clean...cutting out processed foods...with very little meat. Eating mostly organic. Got off insulin. Skin tags disappeared.
Eating or not meat has nothing to do with it.

Wow! You were even able to get off of insulin?
I had the dark skin since I was 3 years old, skin tags at 18, hairloss at 20 over weight since 4 years old. Multiple blood tests blood sugars all ok until 30. No doctor ever mentioned insulin resistance. Then all of a sudden was pre diabeties. If only a doctor had told me early in my preteens I could have turned it all around. Never knew sugar was the issue. Could never loose a significant amount of weight until now in my forties. GP's need to do better.
It's still not too late.
Dang!!! What kind of do called doctors were you going to????!
@@SlimeArtPaintArt, most doctors are like that.
40s are still young! If you do nothing, the remainder of your life you risk spending in worse and worse quality. The medical care system in most countries only will throw medicine at you, with all the side effects. @Blinkybill, please use this time to get serious about commiting to learning as much as you can, get moral support from others (even online) who want you to succeed in getting healthy, and actually doing it. And don't beat yourself up if you fail, just get up and try again. Please keep us updated!

I have pcos and just learning about ketogenic diet. I have hair thinning, overweight, darkened skin on neck, eczema , joint pain and inflammation in knees and feet. Hoping that switching to keto will help alleviate some of these things. So glad to have found your videos.
I had rashes since early childhood, doctors could never figure it out. I can still remember all the creams and treatments that didn't really help. When I look back at my diet as a kid. Fairly certain I was on carb overload. Started almost every day with cereal and nonfat milk.
Eating oatmeal every morning as a kid gave me dry skin and cholinergic urticaria (heat bumps), basically it's when you need to sweat but because your pores do not have enough lipids and fatty acids to produce sweat they instead become very hot and itchy like chicken pox. Oats absorb fats and cholesterol which is good if you're fat but they're not suitable for growing bodies.
When I worked with a chiropractor about 7 years ago, he told that in order to control my psoriasis I had to cut out the sugar!! Of course I didn't take the advice until I started on my Keto journey!! 😳
It has gotten so much better and less itchy! Thanks Dr. Berry
Thanks again Dr Berry. I had pre diabetes 1 year ago, been doing keto, this morning I noticed only 5 pounds to make My goal, and no more pre diabetes. You're a lifesaver.
Thank you Dr Berry, it is refreshing to see a Dr handing out good information and helping people for free in this day and age.
I quit smoking, tore my meniscus and went through menopause and gained 30lbs all in the last 16 months. I noticed I craved sugar where I had always went for salty before, couldn't get full even though I wasn't eating massive carbs I was drinking diet soda all day, My sleep was AWFUL even though I was using sleep aids.
Had surgery to repair my knee, found a functional doctor and we zeroed in with bio identical hormones and still couldn't get my weight budge, enter realization that I'm probably resistant so on my last labs I asked for IR test and started a 40 hr fast 3 days later, then an 18/6 and went Omad keto and bam 5lbs broke by the time my labs came back! My doctor said I was on the verge of prediabetic and IM would greatly help and it has, I'm down 11lbs!
I have practiced 18/6 daily and try for 36/6 to 40/6 at least once a week. I eat 19g of quality carbs a day and I feel better that I have in 16 months!
Thank you so much for making this video. I started keto on November 29, 2019. Before that, I suffered with stage 3 Hidradenitis Suppurativa for 22 years. I tried everything to get relief. I took Accutane, Humira, Remicade, years and years of different antibiotics and steroids, lotions, creams, bleach baths, laser treatments, paleo diet, and finally went vegan for a few months (the absolute worst months of my life). Nothing worked. My HS got worse. I wasn't able to work. I wasn't able to do hardly anything. Walking was so painful. I've had 3 surgeries which eventually gave me some relief but it would always come back. In January of 2020, I started noticing that I wasn't having any new flares. My fibromyalgia stopped bothering me as well. I started feeling so much better. I have not had any new flares of hidradenitis suppurativa since then. This is the longest remission I've ever had. I can go walking without being in pain. I can raise my arms above my head. The really nice bonus is that I've lost 85 pounds. Keto works! I started watching your videos in January of 2020 and I can honestly say that I have gained so much knowledge from you and Neisha. You have helped me get my life back.
Thanks I’m stage 1 after Covid battle. Was considering bleach baths as an alternative as doctors are recommending humera or Accuntane . I refuse to touch the stuff. Thank you and congratulations!
@@d3lllt The bleach baths do provide some relief but it does dry out your skin so make sure you get some Cerave moisturizer to help counteract the dryness. A lot of dermatologists will push the biologics without thinking of what it's doing to the patient long term. I had a terrible time with intestinal nutritional malabsorption and it's finally starting to improve. My body doesn't absorb the nutrients from my food so I have to double up on supplements. So, any chance I get to tell others to try keto, or better yet, carnivore before trying biologics, I speak up. Good luck to you! I hope you find some relief.
🖤 I was looking for this type of positive testimonials. THank you for sharing.
Thanks for sharing I’m an HS sufferer too god bless
You're awesome. I appreciate you and this info so much. I've been reaching insulin resistance for a year and have NEVER read nor heard of all this about skin conditions. Thank you so much.
Excellent information on your videos Dr. Berry you are doing a wonderful service to the community, I have been a diabetic for almost 30 years no complications, I started making changes in my life style after my triple bypass in 2018 and since then I have lost 44 lbs, I have completely given up on carbs but take carbs in the form of greens including high fat avocados and plenty of extra virgin olive oil, my pant size from 42 at one point is down to 32 my HBA1C in 2009 was at 14.7 and now 8 times in a row I am at 5.8, I work out every single day at the gym for at least 2 hours or will go for 5 to 6 mile hikes. I am not on insulin anymore and maintenance dose of 500 mg of Metformin I can easily be off any meds but must in case. Your videos have given me knowledge and have affirmed what I have been doing before I came across your you tube channel Kudos towards your attitude people like you make a difference and I for sure am one of them thank you a million times.
I’ve been dealing with Hidradenitis Suppuritiva for 14 years and been obese for most of my life. When I was at my heaviest, I was constantly having flare-ups, and being at stage 3( the highest stage to be at for this disease), had multiple surgeries to help remedy the problem. I started to get relieve when I started keto and lost 89 pounds. Now, I might get flare-ups, here and there (usually from friction due to chaffing) but it is definitely an improvement from before. Didn’t know that insulin resistance was a possible causation but I am not surprised, either.
I also have hs with a constant flare. I started the Mediterranean diet and cutting night shades been thinking about goin keto. Glad u found some relief
I have had HS for 26 years lost 90 pounds didn't help. 😢
I’ve had HS for over 50 years. I went on carnivore this past Jan. I was stage three. I’ve lost so far 34 lbs of fat. My A1C is 5.7. I have completely stopped breaking out with HS. I also have had psoriasis since I was nine. It is slowly clearing up on its own. I know for a fact nightshades are bad for people with HS.
I so needed video like this 20-15 years ago. My life would be so different. In all important areas. All those docs and my angry family, didn't have a clue what was going on with me. And I was alone with all of this, feeling and looking like a crapp, and knowing there is something so much wrong and didn't have any help - from docs who should have known better their things and from so called close family, that didn't pass this test of life. I was fragile, inteligent, good young kid.
It's never too late to make a difference.
I feel the same. I am grateful I know now...but boy would my life be different had I started keto or carnivore years ago. I tried all kinds of diets but none worked as successfully and all around better than these two.
Sorry you went through that. What hurt the most was the angry family comment. I hope they didn't feed you a bad diet to keep it going. Keep your chin up and if you follow Dr Berry's advice let us know if things got better.
Sorry but I believe we were all told as kids to constantly stop eating candy or junk food, even if you only heard it from outside your home......
You mean to tell me that because you didn't have access to health videos that you had no idea that there was a correlation between problems going on in your mental and physical body and all the food that you were shoveling into your mouth.??? that's like me saying if someone would have only told me alcohol was bad I would have never ended up an alcoholic....
That was an example but you get my point.
@@thefamily730 I understand the angry family comment. I didn't eat junk food or candies. We were given foods thought to be "healthy" and my family used to make hurtful comments about my weight gain - I was asthmatic and on corticosteroids (prednisone) and nothing i did made much of a difference. I was that skinny kid that then became depressed and frustrated and then later, fat.. My family with well meaning intention always had some sort of criticism. I gained a lot of weight - fat- from the steroids, - catch 22 - don't have them and i wouldn't be having this conversation. It seriously stuffed me up - i, one week was 52kg and then two weeks later from big doses of steroids to keep me alive was 86kgs, and it didn't matter how much sport i played the fat never came off. Ate carbs - because that is what you were told were the "healthy" thing....
I like how you diagnose symptoms holistically.
There is always a deep cause for skin conditions but doctors fail to point it out. The main culprit is high levels of Insulin. Sir you have elaborated this point so well, I must appreciate your knowledge & teaching skills. A big Thank you.
🙏😎👑♥️ 🕊🍃🌞
Im an MD and only two years of experience, im so grateful that i start the right way to be real medical doctor early. Thanks for all the precious information you gave to me sir. I cant thank you enough

How did you escape from the indoctrination so early in your career?
If you really have managed to escape the mainstream indoctrination of most doctors, I implore you to help as many people as you can! There are so so few doctors who really care about healing people holistically - all they care about is flexing their "knowledge" (actually ignorance/arrogance) and the money they make off chronically-ill people. You can make a difference!

I cut out all junk food and started drinking only water back on Feb 4th. I dont snack between meals. I allow myself to embrace the hunger because i know that means its working. Today is the 17th of Feb and I have gone from 246.7 to 234.4 lbs. Now that's obviously going to be partially muscle, but it's also fat loss because I can see and feel my stomach getting smaller. Clothes are fitting just a little better. And it's way easier to control my appetite now that sugar isn't over riding my leptin hormones.
How HORRIBLE that the root cause of these uncomfortable or unsightly conditions is kept a secret from most doctors. I had skin tags and roseacea before keto. My face was so red and blotchy, I never left the house without make-up. Now, I wear mascara only, most days, and I love that my face gets a pink healthy glow when I've been active, but I'm NEVER blotchy now. It's amazing that of all the beauty products I used to put on my face, it's what went through the big hole in my face that mattered most!
Same!!!
Did your skin tags fall off? I have several on my face and many on my body and have to see a skin specialist at decent expense. Can change them from my diet?
@@xxkissmeketutxx I have 3 left, under my arm, where my bra rubs. They were the biggest and have shrunk/shriveled to half their size but are stubborn. The rest (about ... 15 to 20?) just disappeared. I even had fairly big ones on my boobs, which grossed me out. So happy I didn't have to spend money (or pain!) to have them surgically removed.
Have you tried keto yet? The first week was the hardest thing I've ever done, and since then it's been very easy. Carb/sugar addiction is real, I discovered. The benefits have been surprising (such as skin tags).
OH MY! I just checked, and TWO of my remaining "big" tags have shrunk so much they're now tiny! Far out, I didn't even know. They must be finally on their way out.
@@lilacDaisy111 did you eat just meat (carnivore) or mix with veggie?
Lilac Milkshake May I know what diet you are on?
I went to my doctor had my labs checked and I did have hyperinsulinemia, I've been on a keto diet since and everything is reversing..I feel great I'm losing weight and I have more energy, no more headaches and I have been sleeping much better!! Guys get yourselves checked and start your recovery life is precious! God Bless you all, God Bless you doc and thank you.
I'm 65, and recently had a place come on my skin that looks like one of the ones you showed. I'm going to a dermatologist to get it checked. My doctor checks all my blood work every 3 weeks. It's always good.
I just discover your channel and so appreciate all that you have shared. i really liked this video in particular since I have insulin resistance and have had at times some of the symptoms you described. Diabetes, insulin resistance, PCOS and thyroid issues all run in my family. But it's amazing how much one's diet can affect the health. I love sweets so it's hard to resist, but when I'm eating protein and staying away from sugar it's amazing how much better I feel and how those symptoms stay at bay. I try to share my experience with others because I believe so many people struggle with it, especially teen girls. Thanks for sharing!
Ever since I stopped grains & potatoes, I have noticed almost all of my skin tags have disappeared
I had eczema and extreme skin sensitivity my whole adult life. I moved to keto and my skin has never been so calm.
My excema cleared up within a month of starting keto (for T2 diabetes). It was an unexpected sude effect, and really helped underscore how high insulin affects our whole body.

I started taking once a week injections of humara it help some, but wasnt 100% affective. But last October I started Keto and intermittent fasting and had great success in the amount of flare ups caused my this chronic skin disease. I was sure keto was the reason why, so I quit taking tge injections and have still had success. Even my scars from the flare uos have started to fade. So yes Dr Preach..had I only known this 20 years ago.

Thank you Dr. for always making these informational videos. You made a difference in my life. I watched one of your videos you made about PCOS and I was able to get pregnant with my first child last year.
I had a rash condition that appeared like a mild form of psoriasis for years. I pretty much eliminated flour based products, cut beer consumption drastically, and overall adopted a diet that leans more towards keto. My skin condition cleared up rapidly within a week or so.
I had hip pain for years. I thought, "Oh, well, I guess I inherited it from my mom." Less than two weeks after starting keto my hip pain was GONE! I have not had one day of pain since I started keto 10 months ago. What a blessing keto has been. THANK YOU DR. BERRY! I share your channel with anybody and everybody who will stand still long enough. Blessings to you and Neisha!💖
Before fancy blood tests, x-rays, and highly sophisticated MRIs , doctors would use the plain old naked eye to make diagnoses. While I am certainly not against using the latest and greatest technology, sometimes the old art of simply being an astute observer of morphological problems with the body - whether that is related to the skin, hair or teeth - can be pretty instructive. Its time that this artform is resuscitated in the medical community.
So true! It's what the rest of us do when we have no health insurance and can't afford a doctor. Christ is the 'Great Physician'!
Sadly, I suspect most healthcare professionals have little knowledge of nutrition. And what they know is often not science based.
Since Big Pharma has taken over, doctors are no longer taught to look for cures. They are taught that certain sets of symptoms can be controlled by “maintenance” medications, creating lifelong customers. After all, big businesses need to continue making greater profits to keep their stockholders happy and Wall Street employed.
Or we can delude ourselves into believing that the Big Pharmaceutical industrial complex is simply the friendly benevolent mom-and-pop drugstore on the corner that sells milk shakes too, that it used to be.
Can someone with high cholesterol and diabetic go on keto diet?
Shan Shan , although I would encourage most to try a low carb lifestyle, underlying diabetes issues would perhaps benefit the most. High cholesterol is not from dietary origin. Because the requirements for insulin will decrease, if not plummet, please advise your/their physician.
Wow! I have been to drs for years about my skin conditions. I even had bad eczema as a small child. I had to put medicated cream on my hands and arms and legs. I also had the worst cystic acne as a teen and young adult. And still have acne as an adult today but it’s less common now that have cut out most carbs and sugars. I have had skin tags for a while too. All this is mind blowing 🤯 I can’t believe none of these drs ever said anything and I had some good drs along the way. I’m really going to do more research into this. It’s fascinating 😃🤩
I don't have any of these skin issues, but if I eat the wrong kinds of carbs, I get that intense hunger (even if I've just eaten), and I gain weight quickly. Being on Keto has definitely helped me and I've lost a lot of weight (which I've struggled with all my life). That intense hunger is a sure sign of Insulin Resistance, but at least now...finally, I know why I get that hunger as well as what to do about it. Besides Dr. Berry, I have also found great information from Dr. Eric Berg, and Dr. Sten Ekberg here on UA-cam. I'm SO grateful for sharing their wealth of information with us! Thank you!
Thank you sir, actually im a pre Diabetic this is so helpful..
We can't possibly have a simple explanation for all these conditions. Imagine all the lost business for the medical and pharmaceutical companies...
Thats the thing it isn't. It's an explanation for some instances of those things, not all.
I tend to agree with you Cameron. Doctors I’ve seen have a pill 💊 for everything.
Everyone would flip out if you all knew how much is in a drug representatives budget to spend on lunches to get these Dr's to push their products!! It's astounding what they spend..I know first hand I work for a local catering Co.& pre-Covid they were ordering weekly including reps.for eye Dr's!! Those reps.by the way make Six figures easily,mind you they do have certain districts & travel alot in a company car of course!!
They put people on tetracycline for Months -- at least they did when I was teen and had friends go to the derma. My fam didn't spring for that kind of expense so I went thru a lot of clearasil with no improvement.
Thank you, doctor!!!! We need more doctors like you.
It's as if Gaud, sent this Doctor Ken presentation directly to me. Seriously, this is a great place for me to start. Thank you so much Dr Berry.
My KAISER DOCTORS would not request these lab tests. I took a leap of faith started keto 13 months ago, then merged to ketovore. Within 2 weeks my skin eczema was completely gone. Rosacea has greatly improved. Recommend this lifestyle and save $$$ on medications and creams that just do not work.
Unfortunately Kaiser won't do any tests unless you're basically dying.
holio even though I told her my diet was strict ketovore, lost 70#, all symptoms of Hashimotos were gone, and skin cleared, she still recommended plant based diet and said the reason I felt so good was only because I had lost weight. KP is totally out of touch with nutrition.
Donna Kuhn what’s a ketovore diet?
Shan Shan mostly meat with less than 10 grams carbohydrate. A keto lifestyle with just a few select vegetables only
@@systemtrend3194 not even then. I had the worst luck with them. Finally my GP just told me to leave. At least she was honest and admitted they lack the skills (or willingness) to diagnoses anything rare
I got 4 conditions from the list. Some since I was a teenager (I am 33). Just now I truly found out why. Thank you doctor.
Thanks Dr Berry. I have Insulin Resistance and do have some of these symptoms. You are right if some of the information you have provided I had knowledge when I was in my 20$ my life would be much simpler. Keep up the great work.
Everything You have Suggested from 3 years ago has Worked ! Love your Channel Dr. Ken Berry
I appreciate the all of the helpful hints. It is especially nice that you are able present infoemation in short segments of around 10 minutes... I like the "less is more" approach
God bless you ! Finally I know the cause of my skin condition . As soon as I’m ready I’ll make a donation - thank you 🙏🏻
I had 3 of these - now things have turned around with IF - intermittent fasting/low to no carb diet/I always exercise. It is all about the food. Thanks Doc. Jay
Thank you for this video. I got my labs done not so long ago. Came back with 106 Fasting Glucose and 5.6 HA1c borderline prediabetic. Was shocked to hear these results. I decided to change my diet and be more conscious about the foods I eat. I've lost 10 lbs in about 2 months. Hopefully, this helps my levels go down. However, I do have a family history of diabetes. I am 25 years old. Was 160 lbs 2 months ago, now I am at 148-150 lbs.
Thanks for the pictures of what you are talking about. I find that very helpful.
Thank you Dr. Berry for your true compassion, caring of strangers. I will have my 18 y.o. Get these tests.
Ive been on carnivore diet for 3 weeks and my skin tags shrank to almost nothing and my few skin sores dissapeared.
now I am looking forward to my brown skin discoloration on my leg recover.
(thanks for having no ads on your videos...I hope you never will push products like others)
Everything you are saying is true. I been fighting cystic acne for 50 years. I am overweight and ate a high carb diet. I been watching your videos about 6 months now. 5 months ago my new doctor said my blood sugar was over 200 and it scared me enough to take on the carnivore diet immediately. I did refuse their diabetic pill and statin they wanted me on but I just knew this would work. And it is. Within just a few weeks my skin began clearing up and I am now down 50 lbs. And my appetite is now under control. My skin is so much better and I am feeling better every day. I wish I knew this as a teen. But at least I have clear skin at 62 better than never.
WOW! You've encouraged me to continue being a "difficult" patient (ala Elain Benis of Seinfeld episode). I'm always asking questions and pushing for better explanations from my medical professionals. The ones that push back are a challenge. Thanks for the links to the studies. They will help.
I REMEMBER THAT EPISODE....HILARIOUS, BUT SPOT ON AS FAR AS HOW I FEEL ABOUT THE DOCTORS I'VE HAD, & THE MEDICAL FIELD IN GENERAL...I HAVE GOOD BLOOD PRESSURE UNTIL I GO IN...THEN IT SPIKES...FIGHT, OR FLIGHT....♡☆♡
I'm 70 and went to Vegan in 2019 ( for the animals, not me), AND my lifelong Psoriasis went away AND, surprisingly to me also, I lost 39 lbs !!!

@@vkngwmn6636 Each person is different. It works for her. That's awesome!!! 🎊🎊🎊
Eating fatty meats excessively will also cause health problems for most people in the long term. Plus it's expensive and worse,it's bad for the environment. Going extreme in anything isn't a "good thing" and this doctor shouldn't be promoting the extreme idea of going full on carnivore as if it were risk free.
@@rebmosher5512 wrong
@@dorisjking8937 veganism has NEVER been a diet of any civilization in any time...it's a death diet. Your death and not mine because I won't follow it.
I had a hyperpigmentation on one armpit for like two months, then it disappeared. I think this video explained it. I know I have some insulin issues.
Me too! I had it when I was pregnant and then it disappeared.
Thankfully, some doctors teach and help people.
Dr Berry, I know you get this a lot from your viewers... but you're awesome and the information you share is PRICELESS!! Thank you!
I don't know Doc, but it's kinda freaking me out that you knew about my buddy Fred. I've never mentioned his bald head one single time here, but yet somehow, you knew! Thanks, I'll be sure to pass this on along to him!
I had the dark skin on my neck and under arms. Started around 15, sadly I had parents who accused me of being dirty and not washing myself instead of having a dr look into the cause. Took me till I was in my mid 20s to figure it out. Once I got my weight under control it went away and thankfully has not come back. But tbt trauma from bullying lingers. But I’m glad I know the things to look out for in my now pre teen daughter.
If I had only known all of this decades ago! Thank goodness for you, Dr. Berry. I'm on my way to kicking insulin resistance to the curb. God bless you!
Dr. Berry, you are the first doctor I have ever seen who even knows what Hidradenitis Suppurativa is or acknowledged that it is a real condition. I and two of my three boys have HS and all the doctors do after "I" tell them what it is is put us on antibiotics for long periods of time. Since I found you October 2019 and started my Keto journey my HS is gone and I am 30 pounds lighter and have gone from 150mg of Synthroid meds to 88mg of Synthroid. I found your wife a few months ago and see she is totally off her meds now by going to just fatty meats and I am going to try that route to get off my meds totally as well. Thank you for sharing your talent and passion with the rest of us!!!
I've had HS my entire life. I went to see a doctor when I was in my twenties and she recommended that I use Phisoderm to clean myself oh, because you know obviously it's because I don't wash properly. I hated that bitch. Then once Google was a thing I started looking up what I thought it might be and that was when I first found out that it had a name. I was so excited because I finally knew this is not something that I was doing. So I went to see a dermatologist. When I walked in and told her that I was pretty sure that's what it was and I had it my entire life oh, she was the most pissy person I've ever encountered in my life. She got really snotty and said oh so you have a diagnosis? I was very upset and I left there with a prescription for antibiotics to be taken for the rest of my life according to her. So I just gave up and I live with it.
@@renrick Yes, I have a prescription for antibiotics as well. I only take it when I have a flair up (when I go off Keto a few days) but since I have gone KETO, I rarely have an issue with my HS. Many doctors have no clue what HS is or how to treat it. The worst part is the way some doctors treat you like you are dirty or like it is a lifestyle problem. More people suffer from it than you would know.
I had HS for years and going vegan/keto made it clear up.
Pretty sure I have HS as well - for those not sure what it is, it's the formation of sore boil-like lumps or carbuncles usually in the groin and/or underarm area, also inflamed sore areas that come and go in skin folds that just seem like dry skin - the boils do produce a small amount of pus but not as much as a true Staph boil or infection - usually come in multiples or one after the other and can make life really uncomfortable. The doc kind of skipped over the description, lol., probably because it's just so plain icky.
I generally stay on an overall low carbohydrate diet and do intermittent fasting which keeps it under control for the most part, but I find as I get older (65 now) that chocolate (in any form! even chocolate-flavored things like cake or chocolate milk) is a huge culprit. All I have to do is eat a few mini candy bars around Halloween or such and I can practically count the minutes until several lesions will appear. Other high-sugar items don't seem to have the same effect, but if they involve chocolate, look out. Took me a long time to figure this out but finally nailed the primary culprit. Would be interested to hear if this is true for anyone else.
And the second major culprit seems to be antibiotics themselves. Found this out after a stint of dental problems over the course of a couple years when I was on and off ATBs frequently. The time frame is longer though - usually one to two months after a heavy antibiotic dosing, the HS syndrome will kick in and last for several months until clearing. Honestly have no idea how that could be related, but it seems to be true for me.
P.s. - Just want to share also that while I'm getting back on track with diet and fasting, applying very warm, damp soaks to the new lesions works for me to prevent them from getting larger and out of control.
Some signs of insulin resistance include:
👍A waistline over 40 inches in men and 35 inches in women.
Blood pressure readings of 130/80 or higher.
A fasting glucose level over 100 mg/dL.
A fasting triglyceride level over 150 mg/dL.
A HDL cholesterol level over under 40 mg/dL in men and 50 mg/dL in women.
Skin tags.
What if some one has every sign of what you said and still he believes he is immune to insulin resistance 🤔😂
@holio yup true...cheating others is some what okay,but cheating self is a complete non okay 😀.
@@chenduprasad How about not chesting anyone? How about honesty? There's a radically useful idea.
Thats me. 41 inches waist. 14 inch biceps, bp 190/100, chlor 40, skin tags, psiriosis on balls and scalp and ass, tendon sores. I beat u
You nailed it completly. I´ve had bad skin and most of those problems through my life. I also had corn in one of toes and dendruft broblems that i can add to that list too. I started keto lifestyle (not just diet) little less than six months a go for weight loss and to lower my A1c that was 8,5 at the time. Well in three months my A1c dropped down to 4,8 (haven´t measured that since) and now i have dropped 17 kg of weight (37.4786 lbs). So the i´ve reached for those things that i setted for goals. All the other benefits just came as a bonus. I did not have no idea that loosing carbs would have tons of benefits as well.
Firstly 90% of my different rashes and dry skin problems are gone. Some of those needs little bit more time to heal than others. Sone of the skin tags are gone smaller and some are disappeard for good. Also that corn that i had one of my toe over 15 years has gone completly. There is not even any sign that i ever had it in forst place! I didn´t first even noticed that at all but once as i was scrubbing my toes i was surpriced that it was gone (after four months), I had to check did i remember the foot right and can this really be true. Yes it was and i surely were amazed for that.
And what comes to dendruft, most of it have gone too. My friend said that he can see improvement on my face that i haven´t even noticed.
There is lot more of health benefits after dropping carbs out. I breathe better, i snore less and i sleep better. My joint pains went away (i had bad aches on my knees before keto). I have slipped of to ketosis couple times in my journey and have eated too much of carbs and those joint pains came back every single time so those are purely from carbs not becouse insuline resistanse and too high blood sugar. These bonus benefits are those ones i noticed in first two weeks already.
I can suggest to anyone just for all these health benefits to start ketogenic lifestyle. 0-20 grams carbs a day and you force your body to function with ketones instead of carbs. I haven´t changed anything else in my diet or started to exersice in anyway. All this just for dropping carbs out of my diet.
Thank you Dr. Berry, I am happy these videos keep popping up. What you said it so true! I wish I had known all these things when I was a teenager. I went on a low carb diet and my skin cleared right up after 2 weeks. Acne gone, skin discoloration and age spots gone! It was amazing! Plus 40 lbs lighter 😃
Age spots gone? I can use that!
