    Hi Dr Bernstein
    Thank you for all the help that you provide by sharing your wisdom about the body and how it works in your videos. It has helped a ton of people as can be seen from the comments section of your channel. Kudos!
    I am a Type 2 Diabetic and tried the latest trend of Intermittent Fasting (16/8) for 6 months, expecting to decrease my blood sugar levels and lose the medication (Evopride 1/500 twice a day). However, the results have been shocking with my insulin going from 8.0uU/ml to 1.3U/ml in about 1 year and A1c spiking from 7.2% to 10.1% with an unintended consequence of a 5kg weight loss. I weighed 63kg and now down to 58kg. (there are some people who do not want to lose weight you see). I actually need to gain weight and strength. Any help on that would be awesome!
    Could you please make a video regarding the effect of intermittent fasting on Insulin for people who do not suffer from Insulinemia and how to improve the insulin levels other than eating more carbs?
    I intend to gain more weight and strength without getting into hypoglycemia.. How can I do that?

    Blood sugar recommendations from the ada = 70 - 180.
    Bernstein recommendation = 83
    Is the recommendation from Bernstein fasted blood sugar?
    Is it throughout the day? 24 hours?
    I've set my cgm alarm in a range of 70 - 120 and try to stay in between that range by injecting a lot throughout the day.
    What I still don't understand,is the doctor talking about 83 mg/dl over 24/7 or is it only a fasting baseline?
    Because when you eat or be active or non active the blood sugar is always fluctuating.
    My question is,what is the doctor meaning with 83 mg/dl,because he mentioned the ada recommendation and that's a range,but he gives us only one number?
    Can someone please explain to me what is healthy/normal?
    I know from the time my pancreas still was working my blood sugar varied from 70 to 120 mg/dl throughout the day and depended on activities and eating of course.
    That's why I assume normal is between 70 and 120 mg/dl throughout the day and try to focus on keeping it in that range.
    Is their something I'm doing wrong or misunderstood or don't understand in general?
    I want to live old complication free and see my children growing up so I can stand with them when needed and want to do anything about it to keep my blood sugars perfect,but how or am I doing it right?
    Please someone help me out if you like?
    Thanks in advance 🙏🏻

    • @jamescalifornia2964
      @jamescalifornia2964 2 роки тому +6

      - 83 as average blood glucose. I believe that equates to an A1C of _4.5_
      Dr Bernstein came to that number by testing healthy non-diabetic adults.

    • @loriscott9091
      @loriscott9091 2 роки тому +12

      He recommends staying as close as possible to 83 all day, which may require adjusting dose and timing of insulins. As a T1D I have my CGM alarms set at 60 and 120, 130 at night, so I can adjust as needed to raise or lower BG. It is difficult to stay at 83 all day, but we do the best we can by following his diet and insulin dosing regimen. His book Diabetes Solution is the best book I’ve ever read and explains all of this in detail. Dr Bernstein is my hero!

      @Engelbert Humperdinck I’m not 100 percent. I eat twice daily and keep amounts consistent. I do eat out a few times per week where I estimate portions. My Endocrinologist allows me to do this because of my A1C without many lows. My last was 5.6 using multiple injections. I take Tresiba 2x day, Regular for meals and Humalog as Dr. B recommends for corrections. I take 12 to 13 units total per day. I do eat small amounts of berries although Dr B does not recommend that.

      @Lonewolf_rider 2 роки тому +3

      @@jamescalifornia2964 thanks for the reply James!
      4.5% or 28 mmol/l hba1c is correct.
      When my pancreas still was functional my hba1c was around 28-29 mmol/l or 4.5% as you stated.
      Keeping a1c in that range isn't that difficult but Keeping daily blood sugar at 4.5 mmol/l or 83 mg/dl is a total different story.
      I do my best but don't think I'm doing it right?
      Another problem is that my endo don't want to give me regular human insuline so I'm still fighting with ultra fast acting insulin that only works maximum of 1.5 hours. The problem is that I'm doing ketovore and protein and fats take about 5 to 6 hours to fully digest and thus I'm injecting multiple times to cover that meal,trying to stay in between range of 70 and 120 mg/dl or 3.9 and 6.7 mmol/l.
      It's impossible to stay flat with that fast acting insulin.
      I'm busy finding another endo who's willing to give me regular insulin so I can better fine-tune my meals.
      How are you doing it and is it easy for you?
      Again thanks for the reply!

      Thank you Engelbert for the great explanation!
      I have the book in possession,but it's not my foreign language.
      I'm from Holland and speak Dutch.
      I understand it but in my knowledge it's not that detailed and sometimes I'm missing some.
      I was diagnosed about 4 years ago with T2D and I started strict Ketogenic right away.
      No processed foods,grains,rice and so on since,so I'm well accosted to that lifestyle. No problem and not missing a thing.
      Now past January I get ill virus infection and the past two years a lot of stress because of government regulations.
      Long story short, I didn't get better and my body started to breakdown fast.
      After three months past April I finally got diagnosed and the outcome was LADA T1D.
      I was misdiagnosed four years ago,but I was able to keep everything in healthy range with an a1c around 28 mmol/l or 4.5 % I was proud of myself,but now I'm confronted with another beast and it's a whole other story.
      Here in Holland aren't that many aware of dr Bernstein and those couple who are aren't that serious or doesn't have enough knowledge,so I'm going my own way on this journey and try to figure it all out by asking questions and putting all the little pieces of the puzzle together.
      My a1c is now 5.5 according to my cgm if that's true I don't now next month I get my blood work done so fingers crossed.
      In the meantime I'm shooting insulin like crazy throughout the days and that doesn't make you feel any better I can assure.
      It's hard work at the moment and I'm burnt out from it, I'm waiting for another endo to help me out and give me regular human insulin because now I have tresiba and that's fine but the short acting isn't fine for covering protein and fat meals,that's why I'm injecting too much.
      Again thanks for your worthy input !
      Appreciate it 🙏🏻
