Thanks Dr Boz, amazing insights you bring us as always. Those in hurry, cliff notes. If you are hard insulin resistant, you have to keep consistency in your IF and low carb life. A binge say once a month with make your insulin set point high. It will always remember the highest number. Depending on how defective your insulin/sugar ratio is, dictates how long the set point stays put. The longer you are consistant and stable the faster and more flexible eventually it will become. But it could take weeks to decades, be patient. It will happen. 🙂
Could it be that stress is causing persistent high glucose? 110 after over 48 hours of fasting seems super weird, tbh. In my case, I notice that daily meditation helps.
@danesovic7585 well that's great. But dr boz is trying to help us help ourselves drug free. Not looking for a bandaid. Yes agree stress likely doesn't help tho
I believe I have a better understanding of the cyclical process of my fasting bg levels. Been keto 2.5 years. My glucose levels have certainly dropped, but I have a 10-14 day cycle where my fasting bg bottoms out at 75-85, then gradually rises to 95-105, then drops again. I don't cheat or binge, and I have an 18-24 hour fast every day. Thank you, Dr. Boz.
I agree, I don't have so much time to liste to all the 1+hours videos on health, I prefer when the information is given in 15 minutes, is more than enough
what most people do not realize is starches and sugars were very scarce in the past, starch-containing food was available only one season out of four; agriculture did not introduce plant-based food, only allowed people to store lots and lots of seeds containing starch
Can you explain how fasting weekly impacts your dr boz ratio and metabolism/ mitochondria to be able to have more flexibility in the amount of carbs you eat over the weekend? How does it help keep a healthy dr boz ratio /metabolism like your lifestyle that you have found that works for you. You just explained how not staying keto all week can impact our overall dr boz ratio. If we add in weekly fast how would that help us maintain a better overall weekly dr boz ratio.
Okay, I see the part that I’ve missed in the past, and of course I can’t recall the name. The memory. The cell’s memory thingy (please someone with a better memory than me help me out with the full name) is why it can take so long. So when I have a Mexican meal after my monthly hospital weigh in or go on a carb bender after my 90 day A1C test I am not helping myself at all. I mean that’s obvious but not THIS obvious. I envy the person who’s able to learn that certain foods aren’t good for them and simply stop having them. Maybe this will help my inner voice conversations in the future.
Addiction is super tough. It’s a full time job & full spectrum of modalities to fight. Keep your eyes on the prize as the degenerative pace snowballs and could impede your own will. Best to you.
I’ve been finally able to, but that doesn’t mean it was easy. I had to be clear about my ‘why’, educate myself with info like that given here. Keeping the carbs low for months was an important key to eliminating starch/sugar cravings.
Thank you for offering to us the lower price. Even though even that lower price point is not in my budget, I see the value in it. I am 28 days into this lifestyle, and although I have “only” lost 4-6 lbs, my Boz ratio has steadily declined! My glucose is slowly coming down, the ketones are slowly going up! HOWEVER, I have had energy issues for DECADES. And still struggle with no energy. Any idea when that might change? Is it just that my mitochondria are still all jacked up? How do caffeine supplements affect all this? I cannot get through the day without them. (OTC Diet pills).
You're great. Your tip for saying that is “in the mail.” Big smile We are filling up our seats for the next 🔴Live course starting Sept 9 - the insoder discount ends Tuesday - on.bozmd.com/Insider21DMK
I eat rolled oats for breakfast with butter and nonfat dry milk, (25 yrs) toasted, buttered dark rye pumpernickle and sardines with mustard for my noon meal, several small palmsfull of walnut pieces as snack to keep from constipation, and my fasting is while i sleep.
Feeling frustrated myself. Been stuck for months. No idea if too much food not enough time between foods. Only thing seems to make scale go down is if I fast for few days. Which I’m sorry sucks!! I like to eat. Soon as I go back to carnivore once a day scale goes right back and I easily could lose 20 pounds as 230 pounds guy.
Oh to add 15 mo carnivore . Very few cheats during that time like birthday. Down 65 pounds. I also workout regularly as well as I did before . Just ready to say screw it and starve and do rolling 96hrs or something to lose this last fucking weight. Been fat kid most my life and just don’t want to jiggle around my waist anymore!!! Ugh!!
It would be such a help for you to have someone to run the slides for you! Then you wouldn’t have to fumble with the string of “okay, let’s see if I can get my slides…if I go here, and then here…oh shoot, okay let me try this…” you must get so frustrated! We get frustrated just eating this over and over and over! Isn’t technology fun?
So what is exactly you are saying here? How long does it take to "undo" - lower your "memory" of your sugar and how is that actually "measured" by ketone production on the strips or by sugar levels or both? Is the "memory" you are talking about the same thing as what your A!C measures via blood test? Thanks in advance for your response. God Bless:)
@@donnacharles7348 I got that it is variable for each person. My question is once you are NOT insulin resistant because you have been on Keto for 5 years does that lower your body's "memory" of your sugar levels and is the "lab work" you referenced part of the "typical fast" before the blood is drawn or are you talking about taking your own sugar levels while you are doing a 36 intermittent hour fast? Thanks and God Bless:)
@@legaleagleandpaws8198 so my understanding is we are all at a moment in time in testing. I thought insulin memory is always there & should you begin to eat sugar again, your insulin would go to its highest level. Not sure if this is measured or more so “class study”. Yes, fasting insulin test is a regular overnight fast blood lab work. Best to you too, thank you.
@@donnacharles7348 That makes little sense and doesn't answer my questions. I guess autophagy doesn't fix much then which I believed the whole idea behind fasting. Have a great day and God Bless:)
@@legaleagleandpaws8198 (don’t wanna beat a dead horse but maybe this analogy will help) Think of those who diet their lifetime. Each time, the new weight gain is more. Memory is responsible. Yes, autophagy clears but it’s not a permanent fix if one refeeds, increasing insulin. Test to monitor & fast to always help clean up. Hope this helped. Insulin is STUBBORN!
It's reassuring to see that BG doesn't follow a straight line down, and ketones a straight line up, when fasting. My liver cranks up dawn glucose when i fast. Every morning it fuels me to get out there and hunt. The morning after a fasting refeed I get my best numbers. Flip side, if I walk lift and do calisthenics like normal, I lose =/>1lb/day when fasting.

@@donnacharles7348 Thank you, Donna! Yes, my doctor and I are making good progress lowering my insulin dosages since going low-carb. But can I even possibly get into 24-hr ketosis when I'm injecting insulin? I'm so insulin sensitive it takes me 22 hours after eating during fasting and sleeping, before my glucose levels off.

@@gloriahouseman2987 Sorry, I certainly can’t guide you on that but I do believe with continued positive steps a breakthrough will come.

@@gloriahouseman2987 You cannot get into ketosis while injecting insulin. Insulin blocks you from burning fat So you can't do that. But you can be low carb and reduce inflammation and have many benefits.
Check those at the same time. Divide the glucose by the ketones. Keep number below 100 for weight loss. Multiple checks will show you a pattern. The lower the numbers for this ratio = the more insulin sensitive you are. Be sure to gather several (>12) sets of numbers
@DoctorBoz I check them both at same time. Ratio goes from 30's all the way to 800! Tiny bit of honey night before the 800! So, 12 times in one day? I can't afford the strips doing just twice a day! Thank you so much for responding. I'm determined to lose 20 pounds and heal my adrenal exhaustion! Trying a Sardine fast but have to saute in butter otherwise I gag! 😆
I'm clueless about this, One thing that drives me nuts about IF is that at night my circulation seems to shut down and my feet go numbish and start throbbing, If I eat 3 meals it can still happen but it depends what I eat, when I eat and how much I eat, I definitely have a harder time at night when I am doing IF. Confused,
Low on potassium, make sure you're drinking your electrolytes!. Happened to me, get yourself a good electrolyte supplement or those packets you add to water but don't get any with added sugar! Sugar will break your fast. Hope this helps
when I was on a 7-day fast on the third day my ketones were high and my glucose was 70, on the fourth day after returning from the gym I tested my glucose was 100 and my ketones were still high. The liver makes glucose in anticipation of the need from ketones
Correct. I did a 4 day fast in April just before the first blood test of my life. The doctors office said my LDL and cholesterol were slightly high. I think my body thought I was starving and started using body fat for energy causing more fat in the blood.
So some people were stupid with their money, and the decision is to punish all other people. I have struggled to be able to come up with a "spare" thousand. I will never even try to find two thousand. I am very disappointed with you.
