9. Are you actually hungry?
Great! Thank you for posting! 👍
thanks!
Good 👍
Thank you!
Yup, I’m dialed in.
For me, once I start my day of eating I will keep wanting to eat. So I try to not start my window until 1 or 2 and stop no later then 5/6p. And if I do not drink a ton of water, no matter what I eat or don’t eat I will not lose a pound! I think that’s been my toughest obstacle. I have never been a water drinker. Lol.
Me too. Thought it was all in my head. 😂
OH MY GOSH! I'm so glad it's not just me!
Heck I’m glad to know it’s not just ME!!! Lol
Exactly the same for me
How much water is “ton”? It’s difficult to take in more than 1.5l for me.
It's ironic that we are told not to get stressed as it drives up cortisol, yet so many keto advisers (other than Dr Maggs) make us constantly worry about eating too much protein! As diets go, Keto can get pretty stressy!! Still I am doing my best to keep going!
If that is your biggest, most stressful worry then you have a very blessed life.
These are all great tips! I've been keto for almost 3 months now. When I first started, I found myself hungry more often than I do now. After you become fat adapted, it gets so easy. However, there is another reason you might still be hungry in my opinion and that is insulin resistance. As you go on with keto this gets better and the insulin comes down thus allowing you to be fuller longer. You have a great way of explaining all things keto. Greetings from Texas! ;)
Great video Dr Maggs. Thank you.
See you in the next one.
Cheers Doc 👍 Salt marsh shoulder of lamb is my best friend on keto, full of saturated fat and extremely tasty. 😋 16st. down to 11.5st.
Very helpful and thorough review of keto hunger issues! Thank you for this video.
This was extremely helpful! Thank you so much!
Thank you, Doc! Very very informative and easy to understand video 😊
Excellent video, thanks for posting. Especially at the beginning of carb dodging I found it helpful to check both blood glucose and blood ketone levels. I use a blood ketone meter. It's a bit pricy to do this constantly, I check only now and then. I often check during fasts of more than 24 hours duration, It's just a bit of encouragement that things are working. I can verify that for me when I'm in ketosis I don't get very hungry, that's really nice.
I just came across your channel. Thank you for all the great information that you are posing!! Easy to understand😅
Another great video Dr Maggs. Thank you
Very very informative and relevant. It's so amazing how much mis-information is put there. Thanks to the ppl like you who are opening our eyes to the real truth. Thanks for this!!!!!!
Glad I found your channel, very helpful contents.
Thank you Dr Dan...🙏 Love your content.
Been very naughty, I was doing so well until last November and I was really ill with colites so I was depressed and I have been eating crisps by the bagfull and lots of Cadbury bars!!! So thank you for this video much needed, today I am going to stop all the bad eating!
You can do it Pamela! Wishing you perseverance! :)
get back on track, Pamela, you'll regret it if not. Feel better!
Yep that was me for the last year. Feeling depressed doesn't help but then poor food makes you feel more depressed as well. Which becomes a bad cycle. Hope you are doing better
Great video! Thank you!
Thank you for the topic -- just what I was looking for. One small suggestion, if you don't mind: please drop that music audio track volume down to match the beginning of the video. I was listening to this video through my speakers and had to turn it up for your opening talk, but when the music kicked in I'm quite sure the neighbors jumped along with me!
Excellent advice
I've been doing it for two weeks lost 4 kg but more importantly stopped medication (mebeverin) for my IBS. I've seen anecdotal evidence that low carb helps auto immune and inflammation. I've been on medication for 3 years with bad back pain, keto diets got rid of it, been off it for a week and usually have issues within 24hours of stopping
Got another 50 kg to lose and hope this lifestyle may change some other issues I have like migraines,
Your videos are ace
This was great for me. Thanks
Yes! More than about 1/2 hour of aerobic or weight training makes me ravenous!
Good video.
You can't exercise your way out of a bad diet.
As you say eat a Keto diet and up your fats and protein if you become hungry. Also I have found organic pumpkin seeds very satisfying. Also a freshly squeezed lemon with grated rind, lime, orange, cinnamon, turmeric and ginger with small tsp of raw organic honey drink very filling mid morning. Avocados and macadamia nuts are also game changers. Some times instead of one pork chop I eat two including the fat. Eggs and oily dish are a must plus lots of green veg and salad. The weight will fall off before you have even got down to do your first push up.
You can't exercise your way out of a bad diet.....brilliantly put,spot on👍👍👍
I felt like I was the only one still being hungry during ketosis, and each time I tried I know I was really in ketosis because of keto strips.
Thanks to your video I now have some clues, namely I think my fats intake were slightly to low.
Butter is great but these vegetable oils are very inflammatory. I thought our appetite decreased because our bodies were getting real nutrition for a change. (Our body grumbles at us in the attempt to get said nutrition) I try not to eat fat except what’s on the protein source or the small amount of olive oil to cook in. I fast regularly 16 hrs but then don’t eat unless I’m hungry. (not paying attention to the “eating window”) Truth about exercise!! The times I did longer fasts was because I was asleep!! 😝 (I work nights) True hunger is very obvious. Thank you Dr Maggs!!
I love my protein I prioritise my protein more than fat don’t eat fruit too much fructose don’t eat vegetables too many oxalates you’re doing a great job keep it up
This was a very informative video, thank you!! 👍
After watching this, I've been doing Keto all wrong! I'm also doing intermittent fasting and I'm constantly hungry...I do have vitamin/mineral deficiencies and been afraid to eat more healthy fats due to the propaganda taught to us about healthy fats. But this is good information to begin to correct all that, thanks again 🙏
It is hard at first to get over 'fat fear' I can identify! But I think I've gotten over it now! I took advice to use nutritional yeast, great for keto, a savoury seasoning that is full of B vitamins.

*Thanx Dr Mag*
Do you advocate cycling off keto? I'm confused whether its necessary....love your videos!
Could u plz tell me these vitamins you were talking about iam 57 and just starting out cheers
I believe you've given me a clue that I needed and that is I need more protein. To the extent that I can know, I think I am in ketosis due to the fact that I gave up simple carbs at the beginning of February and have developed a new diet based on eggs, meat, complex carbohydrates in abundance, fatty fish such as salmon and sardines, and high-fat dairy products such as heavy cream, sour cream, and kefir. It's not so much that I feel hunger, it's that I look forward to eating now far more than I ever have in the past. Having said all this, though, I may be consuming the complex carbs at too high a level and may need to increase the meat and/or egg ratio.
You won’t be in ketosis if you’re eating complex carbs in abundance….
@@tobyholt4682 There's some debate about this. I'll confirm if the plants are having a negative effect or not.
I was rocking along great until the 2 year mark. Now at 2 and a half years, I have gained back half of the weight I lost and I crave carb’s CONSTANTLY. Done with Keto.
That's where keto cycling helps, but my own suggestion would be to switch out diets for a while instead of gaining back...
Go on a whole grain, fresh fruits and vegetables, etc, wholesome diet that allows you to get your nutrients. When you're healthy, then look to see if keto will kick back in, about 6 months later 😊😊😊
yes, you cannot, cannot , out-run a bad diet... what you eat is indeed the key, thank you
I started a low carb diet (about 50g a day) just over a month ago. My fasting glucose has dropped from 20mmol/l to 7. Weirdly my non fasting glucose is 6mmol/l, not sure how that works.
I have no idea if I have reached ketosis but the diet is awesome.
As for fasting haven't had an issue with that. Have lunch at 12pm and dinner at 6. Occasionally feel hungry around 11 am but can ignore it for an hour.
Should be aiming for no more than 20g carbs
Thanks
What fats would you recommended to someone who is lactose intolerant?
I am not hungry at all should I still eat? Am worried not eating enough calories and not getting enough nutrients. Any advice much appreciated.
Even keto folks say dont eat too much fat! It's so damn confusing. I haven't lost weight for 6 mos I even find I'm gaining weight! I dont eat too much of veg...only avocados. Oh then told not to eat nuts! I'm like pulling my hair out! Yeah dont eat too much protien!
I end food at 8:00pm. Eat a snack at 11:00am. I work out with weight 4-5 nights a week. 2 hours after dinner. Sometimes in the 8am-11am window my stomach feels like it’s eating itself out. I’m assuming hunger?
I love oatmeal but it is a grain so was thrilled to find out there's a delicious Keto oatmeal with hardly any carbs. The recipe was from Joe Duff - the diet chef. I make up a big container of the dry ingredients and only add the almond milk when I'm ready to cook the "oatmeal" in the microwave (2 mins. total in a bowl - stir after 1)....I don't like cinnamon in my oatmeal so skip that and add the sweetener after it's cooked along with more almond milk (heated) and toppings.
Dr Maggs. Where is the info/link on which supplements to use please?
It’s in the notes below the video. You need to tap on more… to see the whole note.
This Dr talks the truth. If you can get on one of his courses you are one of the lucky ones. I did and it has changed my life!!!
Dr Dan my Japanese friend Yoko tells me she’s not hungry, it’s her mouth that’s lonely.! 😆😆😆That’s exactly your last point. Are you really hungry?
Friends out there, look when Dr Dan has his next course, you can do this better with a tribe around you 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
I’m just wondering about protein amounts and body weight. I have read conflicting information. Should protein be calculated on your current body weight or your ‘ideal’ body weight? If it current weight, and you are losing significant kg, how often should it be reviewed?
Ideal body weight. The protein requirements are for lean body mass only but the calorie requirements drop as you lose weight, because you're not carrying around all the weight anymore. For every 10 lbs you lose, that's a bowling ball you're not carrying around anymore, your muscles don't have to work so hard just carrying you from place to place.
Dan, if a Person is overweight by EIGHT STONES, what is the amount of Protein needed then? I'm 20 Stones, but my BMI stats say I should be 12 Stones, so should my protein intake be calculated to 12 Stones, which presumably is lean muscle tissue, not fat.
I’m on keto thanks a bunch
My biggest complex is wrapping my head around grams, what is 100 grams of something? 1 cup, 2 cups? I can understand cups and spoonful's, what does 5% curbs 25% proteins and 70% fat look like?
I know how to do keto for my body… I lost 60 lbs in 4 months last year and 100 total and felt great, but I had a death in the family, had a cheat day, and yea it was hard getting back on. That was like 5 months ago and after a car accident 3 months ago I’m finally really trying to get back into ketosis. I bought a ketomojo about a month before I cheated and it never registered above 2.7 (which was only once). I’ve done the same thing now as I did when I was testing with urine strips in the beginning and I would always stay above 4.0 and go up to 15 on the urine strips but on the blood monitor it fluctuates between 0.3 and 0.7 with the highest lately being like 1.2. I’m staying below 20 net carbs/day and even 1,200 calories.
It’s getting past that first week that is the hardest, especially being a woman with PCOS and after I eat the craving for sweets is so strong. I know ill love it in the moment but the guilt and sluggish feeling afterwards and even the next day is not worth it but I feel SO HUNGRY that I can’t focus on anything else. It’s awful. But when I was in ketosis for 4 months straight after a month in I was eating only 700 calories some days because I just wasn’t that hungry. I want to get back to that but man it’s so hard when you’re discouraged from this stupid blood meter saying I’m barely in light ketosis.
Dan, I've put on 7lbs in about 9 months and need to get back to 100% keto and kick start ketosis so great video! I'm generally eating less and try not to eat if not hungry and generally stick to 100g protein + 100/150g veg plus 3-5 fats a day. However, my weight loss seems to stall when I eat less so it's a double edged sword!!! My cholesterol is also up again to around 6.4!! Any advice please?
Hi Sue, did you manage to come down with cholesterol and how are you at the moment?
@@denvernaicker8250 sadly my cholesterol remains around 6 so still trying to get it down! I believe I’m eating the right amounts of protein & fat but it could be the 30ml of cream per day keeping it high but I did have same amounts of cream when starting out on keto when cholesterol went down but still 5.6!!!
@@suecase is your cholesterol producing any other effect in your body in terms of blood clots or cramping? I don't measure my cholesterol but experience symptoms if certain ingredients in my diet through excess quantity produce these symptoms particularly eggs or liver. I tried garlic water decoction although this may cause some form ibs (irritable bowel syndrom). I then tried nattokinase for a while, I think it slightly helped. The biggest change for me was getting more energy from a more balanced diet and not excluding foods or becoming less sensitive towards certain high protein and fat foods, through increasing zinc complex for stomach lining and protecting against stomach acid. I used to have a severe pulsation cramp on calf muscle and needed compression socks to stop me from fainting if that blood pump wasn't successful. I think those symptoms have subsided through the balanced diet. I can just share with you my story, not sure if it directly correlates, there might gaps in my understanding of these symptoms and cholesterol.
Thank you for your words of wisdom. I'm not overly bothered but UK GP's as Dan will know, hate keto as don't study it and they are the ones saying I must get it back to 'recommended' UK levels. I'm not overly concerned but wondered if I was doing anything wrong. I feel so much better living a keto lifestyle so will continue to do so and ignore cholesterol, to a point! @@denvernaicker8250
I'm experiencing alot of hunger! I've increased both protein and fat and now I look in the mirror( I don't weigh often) it it looks like I'm putting weight back on in my abdomen!
If your trying to lose weight you don't need to increase fat, just let the body get all the fat it needs stored I your abdomen.
I combine with fasting, extremely effective.
Eating too many carbs will also make you hungry.
I have a question: if you are trying to lose fat, should you not eat less fat as to enable your body to use your body fat and then when maintaining weight increase fat you eat?
I am 71 years young. I have lost 100 pounds over a year and a half but am stalled. I eat same as always but my doctor says I am probably ment to be this weight now…my bmi weight is 90 and I can’t loose the last 20 pounds to get there…any suggestions ?
I have been off the wagon for a few years and decided to get back on a couple of weeks ago. This time I am going carnivore. I started with a 3 day fast and am now running about 500 calories a day with no real hunger issues. Typically a few hard fried eggs or a chicken thigh. Occasionally a breakfast sausage patty.
Going carnivore ............ another extreme whacky diet guaranteed to give you health problems in the long run. Humans are not carnivores but omnivores. You need veg and salads, nuts and berries not only for the fibre to give you a healthy gut and colon but all the vitamins and nutrients they contain. Also how do you prevent constipation by just eating meat? Your risk of succumbing to bowel cancer is so much higher not eating vegetables and salad. Bonkers.
@@alexmorgan3435 Nope. Enough fat and Mg and no problems.
Carnivore is a great diet, has all the nutrients you need. You don't need any fruit or vegetables or fibre. The most nutritious foods full of vitamins and minerals is liver, egg's, sardines, red meat and salmon. My skin conditions, joint pain, constipation all cleared up eating animals.
@@alexmorgan3435 Do you have proof of all that Alex, we wouldn’t be here today surely if our ancient ancestors weren’t carnivore.
So most of this stuff is garbage. Of course with fasting, extreme exercise and sever calorie restriction you will loose weight
HELP, PLEASE! **HOW** can I be on a low potassium diet (potassium too high in blood) and still stay on keto?
3:37 so many doctors saying the same thing, but why is the 'system' so SLOW ??
I have heard if you have no gallbladder can cause some problems, can you do a video on it I have been doing keto for about 7 weeks I have no gallbladder and I'm enemic. I would like to know more on the not having a gallbladder. Great videos Dr.!
Basically, you'll have to limit your fats to what you can tolerate without a gallbladder to store the necessary bile that's being produced. You still need to eat low carb, but may need to eat more protein (gluconeogenesis will occur, which means you'll get your energy from protein instead of carbs or fat.) You'll probably need to avoid adding fats and eating the fattiest meats. You may need to depend more on fasting between meals or possibly skipping days of eating.
@@CarbageMan can I use a protein shake, would that help or a keto shake ? So should I not be eating as much fats ? I'm losing weight I know I'm not ready to do any fasting yet but I definitely want to intermediate fast as soon as I know I'm ready for it.
@@mary-nf9zn First, I'm not a doctor and this is not medical advice. However, if your purpose is to lose fat, and you're losing fat, you probably don't want to eat a lot of fat. I wouldn't go low fat, but I'd limit the fat to what you can tolerate. From what I understand, you'll know when that happens. Otherwise, I wouldn't worry about too much fat unless you stop losing weight.
I'm not sure why you would want a protein shake. I'd add more animal protein than the typical keto diet. Most people on keto are probably overly concerned about eating too much protein. If your insulin goes up and you stop losing weight, maybe consider it. Otherwise, I'd be eating more protein. In fact, I'd wonder if you're losing lean mass. You might want to look into that possibility and start doing resistance training if you are not already. Lean mass is hard to regain when you lose it. Two ways to lose it are not eating enough protein and not using your muscles.
As for fasting, nothing aggressive, especially if you're losing. Just consider eating 2-3 meals within daylight hours only, for example. You can get more aggressive if you stop losing.
@@mary-nf9zn Hope that helps. Best wishes.
@@CarbageMan it helps alot thank you 😊 I appreciate any advice I can get.
Weeks 1-2 of my menstrual cycle I'm STARVING and weeks 3-4 is fine. Very frustrating 😕
The thing that is confusing to me is the idea that eating too much fat will inhibit fat burning. How do I know how much fat is too much?
Since, last 2 months I lost about 5kg with healthy eating (low carb/no sugar), intermittent fasting (18:6 and OMAD) and walking. Then I thought to take it to next level by joining gym - here the Health Assessment has indicated i should eat 3300 cals per day which is double of what I would and could eat. Please help !!
Eat when you're hungry. Don't worry about calories, as they have ZERO relevance in terms of human digestion/nutrition. To further explain, calories are determined by placing a food item in a machine called a bomb calorimeter, which uses FIRE to burn that food and that is how calories are determined. Humans don't create/use fire in their bodies anywhere, not their stomachs, for anything. Humans use chemicals such as stomach acid and enzymes to break down food to its smallest parts = carbohydrates, proteins and fats. Please don't worry about calories. Eat when you're hungry.
I have a problem with taking supplements for food deficiencies, pills are for correcting illness/body misfunctions not diets. Surely a healthy diet contains everything we need, barring exceptional circumstances?
I always try water first when I'm hungry, so I think its old habits from many years of carbohydrate toxicity that are causing my hunger, because I shouldn't feel hungry, and if anything, I need to increase protein rather than fat.
It's either Hyperinsulinemia stopping my weight loss now I've plateaued, or the double cream in my tea and coffee surely?
I’m getting about 150-175g of fat per day. Is this ok?
I have more than 35kg to lose and I think I combine too much fat. I find most videos on keto just say how great it is to eat more fat and no one says anything about the levels of fat if there is a lot of weight to lose. How many times a week should I have fatty meat or fatty fish for example? What about fat bombs? Should I be happy simply with reducing carbs or should I be careful about fat as well and if so to what degree? Thanks!
I can only speak for myself Sarit but initially I added a good desert spoon of coconut oil to black coffee a few times per day ...ate more fatty types of meat and fish ....fried eggs (minim 3) and also ate quite a bit of full fat cheese when a snack was needed......I used ketostick to check urine after about 3 days and found I was in ketosis.
The next step after being in ketosis for about 3 weeks checking every day I stopped using the coconut oil so my body was then burning my fat instead of the added fat and I now have one meal per day ...steak and salad or salmon with cauliflower cheese are favourites.....no snacks at all and never hungry.
I had 32kgs to lose ...I have 12 to go .....as I am over 60 it is taking me longer to do ( only 7-8ilbs per month) but that's how I did it...if you are younger then it may be quicker for you
stick with it....keep well and God bless.

You don't need to eat fat, if your trying to lose weight just let your body consume the fat on your body. Fasting is the key to losing weight, you can build up slowly by eating an hour later each day.
Hi. Fat is your Freind. Just stick to 5% carbs and drop sugar, eat protein size of your palm per day and try to limit eating to twice so you only spike insulin twice…after all it’s your fat storage hormone. Eat fat but don’t just eat it for the sake of it.
If you can fast 18h per day you should get weight off and more importantly be healthier in no time. I’ve lost 4st before but just put it back on as I was still eating tons of carbs and sugars. The whole calorie is a calorie is bad info. UA-cam Robert Lustig and you’ll love it and find it so helpful.
I have been doing 18/6 for 6 weeks no sugar and lost 2st and in past two weeks introduced clean Keto and 5 x 18/6 and 2 x 24hr fasts and in two weeks lost another 1st 7lbs and feel great. I’m now fat adapted with keto level between 3-4.2. Hunger only comes and goes and when I get to 1-2 meals I can barely eat more than 1500kcals p/d albeit calories to a great degree are not helpful.
Other key thing is exercise. Watch Dr Ekberg on this. It’s a revelation that we don’t need to be killing ourselves, mostly just raise heart rate to c60-65% which is a moderate to fast walk for me. So all that weight I’ve lost is from diet and just walking an hour a day at a good pace.
Hope you enjoy and have a successful journey and it helps change your whole outlook on health. God bless you.
Doc, my glucose levels have gone low, but my weight is not reducing. I am on a vegetarian keto diet. The main source of food is cottage cheese, onion, cream, leafy vegetables, and cauliflower. What should I change?
It could be your ratio of fat-protein-carb is not in optimal balance for weightloss on keto. Have you checked if your body is in keto? If it is, then keep doing what you're doing and the weight will eventually come off. If not, you have to look closer at what you're eating. I found vegetarian keto harder to follow, but it can be done.
High protein keto is the way to go. Don't forget salt aswell.
I struggle with wanting to binge eat when stressed... Think I struggle with protein as well been doing omad as work in kitchen and the chef is constantly telling me how awful keto is... Not worth the grief of listening to her... Live in Spain where its just starting to get a bit more popular.... OK II will stop talking now😂thanks again doc for clear explanation
Disappointed he didn’t mention salt. Most of us don’t eat enough salt.
do 2-3 whey shakes
I used to be so hungry when I was on a low calorie diet, could never lose more than a few pounds before abandoning it. Now I'm low carb and the last four months have been really successful with a weight loss of 35 pounds. I'm not striving to be in ketosis. Instead I try to be low carb with a moderate fat intake. "Sugar and starch" are what I mostly try to avoid. I do have low carb bread but no more than two slices a day.
I would hardly call eating 35 pounds of saturated (body) fat moderate fat intake!
@@akhusal europa said 35lbs of weight LOSS, not eating that amount!
@@toniyoung5131 I know it's 35 pounds of weight loss, but body fat is just stored food. So when you lose fat your body digests it, saturated body fat is highly nutritious full of fat soluble vitamins A, D E and K.
I eat to. Hit all health markers
Where is the link for the Guide?
Click on the title of this video. It will pop up
I've heard people mention low carb HIGH FAT, but really have not put forth any evidence that high fat is required on a ketogenic diet. Most people mention that carbs spike glucose/insulin, protein rises glucose/insulin as well, but not as much, then finally fat hardly rises glucose/insulin at all. People also say we need to meet a certain protein goal each day. But few go so far as to say there is a protein limit. Even in this video, he says not to be afraid to eat enough protein. But he also stresses LOW CARB HIGH FAT for ketosis without any discussion of why the need for high fat.
low fat guidelines has it basis in sugar sales. easy logic.
My electrolyte drink holds me off until my 1st meal about 11am. It helps.
The only diet im not hungry on is low carb lol
What if you don't need to lose weight, but just want to avoid carbs and go keto for this reason. How do you stop the weight loss ?
I'd assume you eat enough fat so your body uses that for energy instead of burnung it's own fat. Am no expert though and just starting
Eating enough fats, proteins and carbohydrates. You have to find the right balance for you. You may need to increase the carbohydrates to stop the weight loss.
I don't think I ever had a cheesecake deficiency
I remember watching a documentary about The Narrative that eating meat and fat causes heart attacks really ramped-up when President Eisenhower died from a massive heart attack it was well known that he loved meat and butter and potatoes he was a meat-and-potatoes guy and so people to start getting in their head that meat and fat cause heart attacks the part that most people didn't know is that he also smoked two packs of cigarettes a day and drink like a fish oh and had a really really really stressful job being president of the United States and whatnot that was the reason he had a heart attack
Wine throws me out every time 🤦🏼♀️
Spirits won't as they have no carbs, but will slow down fat burning
Hi, Dan! I have PCOS and IR. I’ve been following a low carb diet (37g of carbs daily) since December. Not only am I not losing weight, I’m not in ketosis and I’m gaining weight. I’m on 1,000 mg of Metformin daily. My sweet tooth is considerably less, but not absent. However, I can’t seem to get into ketosis or lost any weight. I’m feeling discouraged. Any ideas? Thank you!
Hi Kirsten, I’m not a medical dr or nutritional expert, but I have been doing the Keto/carnivore lifestyle for a while now. I just wanted to reach out and let you know about Dr Ken Berry, he is on UA-cam. He has lots of videos re this way of eating and I think you may find your answers there. I’m presuming you are type 2 Diabetic (from mention of metformin) also PCoS is linked to high insulin levels. I think you may have to drop the carbs even lower to get any results. Dr Berry will explain Eating Carnivore to you. All the best.
@@Deb-wo4ut Good morning! Thank you for commenting! Yes, i do watch Dr. Berry and I think he’s great! I’m not sure about carnivore, since I don’t even have Keto down just yet. LOL Thank goodness that I am not a type 2 diabetic. I am considered “pre diabetic”. I take Metformin to treat the PCOS and the IR. I’ll keep plugging away at what I can. I get my next labs in June, so I look forward to seeing how I’m doing then. I just hate carrying weight that I didn’t when I ate high carb.
@@Ripplesinthewaters if you’re not in ketosis you’re eating too many carbs- to ensure ketosis get under 20g a day.
Look for Dr. Westmans page 4 for guidance.
You could also try a 5 day egg fast. I love using it as a tool to kickstart my weight loss and guarantee ketosis.
Good luck!
I used to suffer with ovarian cysts. Over the years i found that there are certain things we must remove from our lives. Look at all of your personal items such as lotion, shampoo, soap, everything. If any of them contain -parabens (they come in many forms: methylparaben, propylparaben, etc, paraben is the last part), you need to find an item that does NOT and substitute. -parabens are cheap preservatives which act as estrogens. Ovarian cysts are a symptom of estrogen dominance, you DON'T need or want any external estrogen. Same goes for estrogenic foods - soy is a huge one. Caffeine is a no, sugars/carbs are a no (which is one reason why keto/carnivore helps this issue).
I supplement with iodine and selenium daily. I can't advise you how to supplement with this. I'd suggest finding someone who can. But iodine and cofactor selenium are very important for proper functioning of the ovaries and other organs.
Linked with iodine, reduce your exposure to chlorine, fluoride and bromine. They are enemies of iodine and will displace it.
You may have a lot of healing to do, which may be why you're not releasing excess body fat yet. Resource - videos from carnivore women.
Something else about the iodine. Dr. Jorge Flechas spoke of a patient with severe blood sugar levels and was on insulin. He advised her to take iodine (don't know dose) and she started having low blood sugar episodes. She told him and he said "reduce the insulin until you don't have low blood sugar, keep taking the iodine". Some time later she went for checkup, he asked how much insulin she was taking. "None", he was shocked. She said, "you told me to keep reducing insulin until I didn't have low blood sugar". The iodine helped her insulin sensitivity come back.
Personally, if I take too much magnesium and/or vitamin E, I will experience low blood sugar tremors. I hardly ever have them anymore. But that is a function of those nutrients, also. They help lower blood sugar.
Been on keto for over a year and literally had a nightmare of accidentally consuming a sweetened food. I was trying to get rid of a sweet taste in my mouth. Tomato is the sweetest fruit I eat from time to time and half&half in my coffee is my main source of sugar because I can't afford organic heavy cream, it's like $5 for a pint. I also prefer macadamia or pecans but they're more expensive than almonds or peanut. So is organic ghee which I've eaten out of the jar and still had normal cholesterol, that was a surprise.
Another factor is you keep watching mukbang, foodvlog, cooking show etc. . . Try to unsubcribe those to stop your hunger that will help
I couldn't find a single reason of why I still feel hungry some weeks. I'll be honest and say that this is probably your worst video.
Take protein for example.... I used to be 103kg or 226lb and you say I need 82.4g of protein to avoid nutrition deficiency but even before I started Keto, 18 months ago, I would eat substantially less than 82.4g of protein but never a blood test or any other tests said I was in any way protein deficient ... it's very hard to eat that amount of protein. I believe the right amount is related to lean body weight rather than full body mass weight, at least it makes sense to me. Say I was 103kg of body mass weight but 23kg was fat (round numbers) then my lean weight would have been 80kg so my protein requirements would have been 64g which is more or less the amount I used to eat daily. Now my current weight is 85kg and I'm 1.83m or 6', I guess my lean body weight is about 70kg and my daily protein consumption is still about 65g.
So I guess you would consider all vegans are protein deficient.
Another point here, organic eggs, grass fed beef are great but expensive and here in the UK, grass fed beef is not easy to find.... I do what I can, eat organic eggs when I find them but 1/2 dozen cost nearly as much as a dozen of the free range eggs. I very occasionally eat grass fed beef, maybe twice in the last 18 months. I hope you are not suggesting that dirty keto doesn't work because I think that would be wrong.... I haven't done a clean Keto exactly and I suspect most people don't either and yet I have achieved good results.
By the way, I do get into deep ketosis and when fasting I get into very deep ketosis .... 7.9 mmol on one occasion which was close to ketoacidosis.
While fasting I feel hungry when I'm getting close to my normal feeding time so if I'm fasting through lunchtime then around 1:30pm I feel hungry for 20 or 30 minutes which is normal.
High protein also puts you into ketosis.
I will throw up when I eat too much fat so I have to be careful.
that protein number seems really high, let me do some napkin math
i weigh 277lb = 126kg -> 100g of protein
I currently eat
3 eggs ~ 20g
4 strips of thick bacon ~ 30g
8oz steak ~ 40g
(or chicken breast ~40g)
(or fish fillet ~ 40g)
huh I guess I was doing fine
i normally eat that between 2 sittings.
I've lost 20lbs in 2 months. Thanks for the video
My problem is to do keto without becoming a skeleton. I don't do it for weightloss. It's a side effect.
You forgot the supplements
So this is keto. I’m not doing that as I lose way to much weight on it. I’m low carbing so eating under 130g of carbs a day and it’s working for me as I’ve no gallbladder and have to watch the ratios of fat and proteins.
Plus human nature for comfort eating and relearnIng that we don’t have to is damn hard to do. I make sure I’ve got something in my hands that isn’t food. So I took up knitting which helped me a lot. Plus walking even if it’s in the house as it’s a big house 😂.
Plus a lot of GPs and nurses don’t agree with keto or low carb and actively try to scare the crap out of you with heart attacks, high cholesterol etc. My nurse talks to me like a child when I tell her I’m low carbing and freaks on the amounts I eat daily. I sent her links from Dr Unwin and yourself. She has now not mentioned anything about it strangely.
I only eat 3x a day on keto, typical breakfast/lunch/dinner. After my meals, I’m almost never hungry and don’t feel the craving for sweets or anything sugary.
If I’m not on keto I’m snacking like a mf’er.
I literally just eat my meals and my day is good.
eat a lot of bacon and butter that fills me up. Eat fatty cuts of meat! A ribeye fills me up for hours.
fat contains many calorie so i dont want fat and eat more of filling protein and vegetables!
i find it easier to do. Ketovore as i can’t get my head around Keto🙏
I hear you!
What the hell is ketovore???

The trouble with 'eating enough fat' is, I'm only 5 foot tall on a good day, actually slightly below that. Because of other health issues, I'm pretty sedentary and my job requires me to sit at a desk all day long. If I add fat to a keto diet, I WON'T LOSE WEIGHT AT ALL. I'm now eating a combination of KetoChow (1/4 scoop) and Orgain (pea protein one scoop instead of 2) to get a full protein profile as well as the minerals in KC dissolved in 20 oz of water/ice as breakfast and lunch, sipped thruout the day with a meat only dinner and I'm slowly losing even though the calorie count for the day is well under 1000. If I added the amount of fat Ketochow talks about (1/2 stick butter!!!) to every shake I'd GAIN weight, and probably also have diarrhea because of prior gall bladder surgery. In fact, I've been looking at the videos of the KetoChow business owners dating back several years and compared to now and they don't look healthy to me - they look bloated with a lot of subcutaneous fat; you would think someone in ketosis for years would have chiseled cheekbones and jawlines.... After several years of being on their own product, touting the wonders of fat intake along with a ketogenic style of eating, they don't look that good and I have to wonder what their arteries look like. It's not only about the lab results, there are other issues we may not know about until later in life... Yes I know sugar plus fat is what causes heart disease but really? Eating butter, heavy cream, oil plus 'snacks' that involve pork rinds, etc? Yowser. Nope. Nope, nope.
I'm sorry to make a negative comment on an otherwise good video, but language matters and we're now at the point where enough is enough and these small adjustments to language can't be allowed to slide. I was really disappointed to hear a doctor using the word gender instead of sex. But given that the NHS (allegedly) appear to think it's ok to tell the police a woman wasn't raped in hospital because there were no men on the ward, when there was a trans identified man admitted, let's all crack on with being 'inclusive' at the expense of women. What does it matter to erode women's rights further by pretending men can be women and using terms like gender instead of sex, or pregnant people instead of woman? I'm sure the comment was well intentioned and no doubt an attempt to be 'inclusive'. I'm all for kindness but not when it means half the population are expected to give up their right to safety and single sex spaces. When you use words like gender instead of sex, it's not a passive act. What you're actually doing is contributing to an ideology that is eroding the rights of women and girls. Other than that, great Keto info.
Also the demonization of fat is people's General misunderstanding and lack of knowledge of biology people intuitively but incorrectly assumed that because you eat fat from animals and you eat their fat that your body then turns that into your fat they don't understand that actually the chemistry behind that is that carbohydrates and sugar is what is turned into fat and actually it's very hard for your body to turn fat or Oils into fat inside your own body this is just a total misunderstanding of biology and chemistry if oils and animal fat made people fat then ancient Native Americans would have all been super obese however we see the opposite of that if you look at photographs of Native Americans from the 1800 when they were eating a natural diet of mostly meat and fat they're all well-built and skinny as opposed to the modern-day Native American who has higher rates of obesity than the general population mostly because they consume a standard American diet concern lots and lots of bread cornmeal carbs and potato dishes one of the most popular things that modern-day Native Americans eat is fry bread it's literally starch and flour and carbs fried in oil it is categorically the most unhealthy thing you could put in your body and yet it is a staple of any Native American diet now which is just stunning because genetic wise modern-day Native Americans are no different than their ancestors so the only difference between a modern-day Native American versus their ancestors is the diet and it is amazing to see that within just a few short Generations they went from extremely healthy fit lean body having their communities riddled with obesity heart disease and type 2 diabetes same thing is also happening to their cousin's way up in the north close to the Arctic called Eskimos who again their ancestors existed almost entirely on animal fat and flesh with virtually no Platte or carbs in their diet and yet their ancestors were healthy had very little heart disease didn't even know what diabetes was and had very very little cancer and generally lived for a very very long time well all of that is changing now that they eat a standard American diet full of synthetic process oils sugars starch and tons of carbohydrates and now Eskimos and modern-day Native Americans are suffering all the afflictions that the standard American suffer but even at higher rates of disease and mortality
Fat is your friend! :)
Reward yourself? This might be one of the stupidest ideas the 5th ape has ever thought up ...
Keto sucks! Did it strictly for 2 years and had some serious health issues
That’s highly unusual, most people do far better on keto, with lab results to prove it.
