Patients of ours often make the mistake of eliminating food with essential nutrients just to lose weight as quickly as possible. This was a good explanation of why that is never the best strategy. This is especially true for long-term, sustainable weight loss.
Exactly, I have ankylosing spondilitis (AS) and I finally had to make a lifetime decision to change my diet to anti inflammatory. I walked with a limp due to back and hip pain. Starting with eliminating sugar, no substitutes...low carb...lots of water. It has been 5 months, and I no longer have hip pain, back pain decreased but not completely, but tremendous difference. Eating clean for life is my only option. I firmly recommend diet filled with essential nutrients for everyone. Even moreso for people dealing with autoimmune diseases, obesity, diabetes to name a few...wish I had known years ago what I know now. I'm in a support group, and so many people take biologics...if one doesn't work then they switch to another. There are ppl younger than me that partly rely on wheelchairs. Nobody discusses diet with me...it's all about medications.
@plnkfloydian the first 5 pounds definitely was, however on my body comp scale I have gone from 33% to 29.3% fat. I know those aren't super accurate, but I also see the difference and feel the difference in my clothing.
My body feels so much leaner when I’m eating keto. I remember always being thirsty when I was on all the junk food carbs.its so crazy how the body is less stressed when you get rid off the bad stuff.
Fascinating. Fasting is a massive part of our lifestyle and it’s important to understand the foods that are most important to eat when in our eating window.
Self Health Hypnosis Given you are professional hypnotherapists, can self hypnosis help me to make better food choices and find the ability to intermittent fast?
Clio C My understanding is that hypnosis is nothing special or scary, just a normal state of focus. People use it in sports all the time to get In the zone.
I love watching Dr. Berg, because I spend so much time reading about health and nutrients, and then I watch these videos, and it's kind of like listening to a college professor sum things up in an EXTREMELY helpful and comprehensive way.
Let me tell you, guys... magnesium has helped my carb cravings more than anything (except being in ketosis). The spray you put on your skin gets best results. If I stop for a few days, cravings start coming back. Hope it helps someone else! ☺️
Been on Keto a month. Not craving carbs unless I think too much about it. My body isn't craving it but I love New York pizza and last night was thinking of it and wasn't thinking once I take a break from Keto I am getting some NY slice.
The contents of my ice box and pantry have changed drastically since I found Dr. Berg. I feel years younger physically and mentally and my moods are so much more positive and happy. Also helps that my beer habit of 40 years is a thing of the past. My next trip to the store will have calf’s liver in the cart. One of my favorite meals as a kid,mwah bacon and onions. I will however missed the mashed potatoes next to it..
I have been on keto for almost a year. The other night I had the strangest dream where I put my fingers into a pile of sugar. I could taste it through my skin and got a rush from it. What the heck!!!
This Video is soo much what I needed! I started the Keto diet but keep getting all these carb cravings and feelings of emptiness and like something is missing with every meal. Like I’m missing one more component, of course it’s carbs! But I will now implement this information and increase my fats and nutrient rich foods! ❤️
Dr Berg (although I doubt you'll see this) I've not watched the video yet, however, I've never been able to control myself. I could never stick to a healthy way of eating. There are a few reasons but most people won't understand so I won't detail them but the good news is, I tried, for a completely other reason, Maku brand full spectrum hemp oil, 1000 mg bottle. I noticed sometime around 2/3 of the bottle that my hunger and out of control feeling, was reducing. It was as if it made me less insulin resistant but other benefits as well. By the time I started the second bottle, I decided to go on a strict diet, stricter than LCHF, and I've been able to stick to it for 11 days. That's 11 days longer than usual. I feel that "food isn't important to me anymore" feeling but not completely but still a very powerful and helpful amount. I do not think about the cookies my roomie made, for example. That wasn't possible ever before. Maku brand is expensive however, if one subscribes, buys the first bottle at a very low introductory price, then once they receive the bottle, cancel their membership, it's only $20 spent to test how this product works on that person. Then if they benefit from it, they can reactivate their membership. I hear it's also good for anxiety and pain caused by inflammation, such as arthritis and trauma. I don't have any personal experience to report on that. 3 other add ons you might want to try to help with hunger and cravings is chromium picolinate, choline, and saffron extract. I know Dr. Berg has mentioned chromium in one or more of his videos.
Great video! We are raised to think carbs are needed. Also, poor sleep makes me want to eat bad always. Focus on good sleep and you will see a big difference! Curious how much you sleep each night on average???
"Breast milk...a little hard to come by".. 😄😄😂 that got me. Thanks for the great information, and the chuckle to boot. I really enjoy a Tbsp of good chia seed accompanied by a Tbsp of virgin olive oil. For whatever reason the combo is a taste treat to me.
I just ask a nice cut of Prime beef, spinach, zucchini, broccoli, garlic. Im full and according to Doc I've checked all the macro/mico nutrients. YET IM CRAVING A 1/2 PACK OF RITZ CACKET. Just did a 18 fast. Craving in full effect.
After almost 9 months of doing keto and IF, and losing all the weight I needed to, I started craving for sweets (desserts are carbs). Since Dr Berg published his video about keto desserts, few days ago, I have tried 2 desserts. My craving for sweets (carbs) stopped! Also, people asking about breast milk. Unless you are a female and currently breast feeding (I have drank my own), I think closest option is bovine colostrum (grass fed like Dr Berg always remind us), that is available in powder or tinture forms. In fact Dr Berg did a video on allergy and one of his recommendations is colostrum.
Excellent info. I have been off omad for a week now because of being too hungry and it all started with getting full too quickly, you'd swear I had gastric bypass done. I couldn't take anymore food so my fat intake kept decreasing then eventually, my greens too. This video came at a perfect time, I need to start afresh and load up on nutrients again. Thank you Dr. Berg🙂🙏🏾
Hi Dr.Berg your number one follower from Australia, I recently finished my degree in Nutritional Medicine and your videos keep me update with all Biochem concepts how to treat different conditions through good dietary recommendations .Thanks
Fixing a person's carb and sugar cravings with keto and fasting is one thing but some people are born greedy for food and many people need their sugar fix for a comfort because their life is rubbish and beset with problems
Dr. Berg I don’t know HOW you always create a video SPECIFICALLY about what I’m thinking about! This one in particular saved me from doing all the research I was about to do this weekend. I promise you I was going to look up what foods I need to feed my 4 year old to make sure he has a balanced diet along with my Keto foods!!! Thank you sooooo much. I have seen your channel grow over time and I am so happy for your success. Thank you for your knowledge and your passion to inform, help and heal people!!! I’m sure there are many others who share my sentiments! Thanks again !! 🥦🥒🍆🥩🍖🍗🥑🍳 🥗x7
Organic Hemp Protein Powder is amazing. It has all the amino acids that we need to sustain life. It is a nutritional powhouse! Nutiva Hampe powder is the best. It is also NOT made in the USA. It is made in Canada!
I noticed the more I eat vegetables the more I begin to crave them. I think it might have something to do with a lifetime of being deprived of important nutrients that only come from vegetables, suppressing cues to eat them.
A big reason i still occasionally crave carbs is because I have to drive past a Bar B Q restaurant every time I leave my house because its soo close to where I live. When the timing is right and I'm going past while they are smoking the meat I'll catch a whiff and it makes my mouth start to water every time. That stuff smells so delicious.
So in short Liver, eggs, seweed are the main ones. Magnesium potassium is not needed as much when eating only meats, eggs, dairy. since it is needed to counter veggies fruits etc. K1 is also in Liver and Magnesium is also in fatty fish. As you said veggies are low on the list... hmmm Many people go to hospital due to avacatos when they open them with a knife.
Could you also speak about how to eat? I've been living in the US for many years from Europe and in my culture we chew our food much more than Americans do, my point is that because we chew we "kick" our saliva to start its pre digestive work for our stomach. By chewing more you get satisfied faster and for longer because your stomach doesn't have to try to do all the work, and work that it's not suppose and can't do. This is a huge missing piece IMO, if you start to chew more, you actually eat less but you eat well and you are/feel full, satisfied early and for a longer time. TY!
Of course those are all the best things for me, I don’t care for most of the things on that list. ☹️ Beef, berries, and greens, and occasionally eggs I can do. Just my luck!
Funny. Months ago, I would crave sugar or anything an hour after dinner. An hour before dinner.after breakfast etc. Once I started ridding the refined starches out of my diet and ate arugula and making my own avacado and wild blueberry water, for example. All my cravings went into hibernation.
Could it just be that we sometimes crave a slice of very good bread? I used to bake, I had my own very old "mother" to make sourdough. I miss it terribly! No amount of other foods will make me forget it.
We've evolved to crave situations and locations in which we felt nurtured and safe. Survival reasons. Something in your current enviroment might be stressing you out unconciously. Your brain is tricking you.
Lia Leo YES! And you really should try Dr. berg’s Healthiest Bread in the World recipe. It is absolutely the best Keto bread! (Thank you Karen!) check his website for the recipe. I make a double batch every week and split it up for some additional ingredients. Usually 1/2 (which is a full batch) will include jalapeño and kalamata olives, while the other half has added chopped nuts with a little powdered erythritol and cinnamon. I add those things before I knead and rise the dough so they get incorporated throughout. Otherwise just follow Karen’s instructions. Super good toasted... with butter. Yum!
@@nmnvpdx I've already tried. It's edibile, but far far away from real good bread. I'll keep the keto diet on because it's already helped me very much. However, I miss a slice of my bread, sorry :-)
Hi Dr Berg! I am a bike enthusiast and I would love to see a video from you explaining the benefits of cycling. There are plenty of videos out there but for some reason, I tend to watch your videos with more gusto. ❤ Thanks in advance.
Man, I'm way low in the fats I consume. Definitely am adding more eggs to my OMAD, and a whole avocado, not just half (cannot, cannot, CANNOT eat liver or seafood!!! Not no way, not no how!!!)
How about people physically active doing hard work or exercise daily and burn all that carbs? Do they still have problems? And where they get their calories from if not from carbs? Fats only?
Great video, Dr Berg. One thing for all these new videos with the smart board: The audio sounds very tinny. Your audio was on point when writing on the glass on your older videos. Not sure what changed, but just wanted to make a note of it. Thanks again!
@@TB1M1 lmao tell that to Stephanie keto Person here on YT who has been eating this way for 12yrs. Look at ONE of her videos and you tell me that her body screams coronary disease LOL Then why are you here if you don't support this way of eating?? you must be vegan... But seriously,., Look her up. Oh and she is nearly 52yrs old. FIFTY TWO LOL
Hi thanks Dr Berg for your helpful information about healthy Keto and intermittent fasting everyday, can you talk about Fenugreek and its benefits and side effects thanks again Dr.
Dr,Berg you are so right , I haven't been eating enough fats and I crave Potato chips all the time and especially oatmeal sometimes...lol but I'm not eating enough fats,,,,,UDOS oil is good,,,,xoxo
I would like to see you make a video about how to best take in high amounts of carbs for people who need to such as athletes. I’m 17 years old and am a distance runner running 30-40 miles a week with a 5K race on Saturdays so I need to eat at least 50% carbs. I try to make sure most of them are good carbs such as veggies, whole wheat/grain, steel cut, etc. but I would love a more in depth video on if you are someone who eats a lot of carbs, how can you best utilize them and still maintain good health?
Instead of wheat/grains switch to potatoes. Better source of fuel and doesn't cause inflammation. Wheat is the worst choice of carbs for an athlete. Boil carrots and potatoes and make a puree, add sea salt and real butter. On off-days switch to cabbage, because you won't be burning off glucose and might end up with love-handles.
I'm doing everything right. Clean Keto, averaging 6% carb, 19 % protein and the rest fat... Day 8 Please tell me the carb cravings end.... It's hitting me at night and it's tough.... 😕
Thanks a mil. Doc. You punch so much of useful info in every video that it is simply amazing! keep up good work, pls. whole lot of people gain a great lor. All the very best, Doc!
Back before refridgeration it was necessary to ferment cabbage to have the nutrients to ward off illness during the winter months. Nowadays, nobody eats Sauerkraut. I'm german and grew up there and literally no-one other than my Dad eats that stuff. People want french fries.... And since we can get fresh lemons in February, there is no need to ferment cabbage :-)
I've been struggling with carb craving today - especially tonight since I've been fasting since lunch. I eat 7 to 10 cups veg daily and about the right fat/protein ratio. So I thought it's my PMS. Can that actually be a cause too, anyone? Only started keto / IF 2 months ago.
Hmm, can't eat liver! I tried and ugg. Gross and don't even get me started on sardines! I will stick with eggs as they are my number one go to food (the picture of the eggs in the video are the ones I eat!)
I can overeat the protein-fat combo, like chicken or cheese........but those dang carbs bring things to a crazy level. Bread, I could eat it and eat it, when the hell will I ever stop, who knows!
Dr. B what is your take on celery juice for liver cleanse? Your thoughts on this recipe I received for heavy metals from autism and general detox made of 1tbsp dulse, barley grass juice powder, (I know this is not part of keto, but on 2 bananas as well as 2 cups blue berries) 2cups kale and 1tsp of spirulina? Love your input Dr. B I'm so confused.
Carbs are needed for people on building muscle I've been through keto and normal diet with complex carb,and result is amazing on diet complex carb,high protein... Keto only for people wanna lose weight and maintain insulin
Dr. Berg can you please make a video on fixing amenorrhea and losing fat at the same time. Because "the people" say eat more and its bread pasta cereal etc carbs..
Dr berg you keep talking about the SCIENTIFIC aspects about Sugar Cravings which i thank you for , but you should also speak about the mental aspect about it , and solutions for us prediabetic at the age of 15 and don't have a job to get some money to barley do keto and stop binging maybe ;(
You forgot the pea protein! It also has nutrients like iron and selenium! It should be next after eggs. But dont worry you get it right the next time. ;-)

Maku brand is expensive however, if one subscribes, buys the first bottle at a very low introductory price, then once they receive the bottle, cancel their membership, it's only $20 spent to test how this product works on that person. Then if they benefit from it, they can reactivate their membership. I hear it's also good for anxiety and pain caused by inflammation, such as arthritis and trauma. I don't have any personal experience to report on that.
3 other add ons you might want to try to help with hunger and cravings is chromium picolinate, choline, and saffron extract. I know Dr. Berg has mentioned chromium in one or more of his videos.

Hi Dr Berg! I am a bike enthusiast and I would love to see a video from you explaining the benefits of cycling. There are plenty of videos out there but for some reason, I tend to watch your videos with more gusto. ❤ Thanks in advance.
Always great healthy content! we always look past these topics
This video is great! Something I have been wondering about. Thank you Dr. Berg!
I'm glad it helped you.
Really liked this video. It's all food list making it easy to comprehend
Best advice on earth. You’re the man!
Man, I'm way low in the fats I consume. Definitely am adding more eggs to my OMAD, and a whole avocado, not just half (cannot, cannot, CANNOT eat liver or seafood!!! Not no way, not no how!!!)
How about people physically active doing hard work or exercise daily and burn all that carbs? Do they still have problems? And where they get their calories from if not from carbs? Fats only?
@An Equal or maybe carb cycling would suit you?
brilliant information ,,,still keeping me at the top of my game
Great video, Dr Berg. One thing for all these new videos with the smart board: The audio sounds very tinny. Your audio was on point when writing on the glass on your older videos. Not sure what changed, but just wanted to make a note of it. Thanks again!
You forgot mention saturated fat of high quality coconut oil that actually reduce cravings and gets you full in hours. Amazing
PERFECT video! Thank you! Long over do on the emphasis of grass fed liver. Well rounded video made simple too understand! xo thanks

Look at ONE of her videos and you tell me that her body screams coronary disease LOL Then why are you here if you don't support this way of eating?? you must be vegan... But seriously,., Look her up. Oh and she is nearly 52yrs old. FIFTY TWO LOL

Lol go away
Hi thanks Dr Berg for your helpful information about healthy Keto and intermittent fasting everyday, can you talk about Fenugreek and its benefits and side effects thanks again Dr.
Dr,Berg you are so right , I haven't been eating enough fats and I crave Potato chips all the time and especially oatmeal sometimes...lol but I'm not eating enough fats,,,,,UDOS oil is good,,,,xoxo
I would like to see you make a video about how to best take in high amounts of carbs for people who need to such as athletes. I’m 17 years old and am a distance runner running 30-40 miles a week with a 5K race on Saturdays so I need to eat at least 50% carbs. I try to make sure most of them are good carbs such as veggies, whole wheat/grain, steel cut, etc. but I would love a more in depth video on if you are someone who eats a lot of carbs, how can you best utilize them and still maintain good health?
Instead of wheat/grains switch to potatoes. Better source of fuel and doesn't cause inflammation. Wheat is the worst choice of carbs for an athlete. Boil carrots and potatoes and make a puree, add sea salt and real butter. On off-days switch to cabbage, because you won't be burning off glucose and might end up with love-handles.
Eat loads of oats and buckwheat as they are one of the most healthiest grains ever
I'm doing everything right. Clean Keto, averaging 6% carb, 19 % protein and the rest fat... Day 8 Please tell me the carb cravings end.... It's hitting me at night and it's tough.... 😕
I crave but i resist . Thanks doc. for lemon kidneys cure recipe. You are the best. Can you talk about food who stain teeth ?
I love the cool new board! Im going to try healthy keto for like the 10th time! I’m all over the map. Keto, vegan, keto, vegan, keto arrrgghh....
A video good and a reminder to eat a variety of high quality foods but liver never going to be on my plate.
Hello Doc
Your videos are just amazing. I am a vegetarian and how can I get these micro nutrients without having supplements.
Man i'm loving your videos
Can a Pescatarian Diet work with complex carbs and wild caught seafood?
Thanks a mil. Doc. You punch so much of useful info in every video that it is simply amazing! keep up good work, pls. whole lot of people gain a great lor. All the very best, Doc!
Dr.Berg I want to know about the swoosh noise from your screen, is it texture or animated.
Great info as always 👍
The only one I hate eating is sauerkraut. Does anyone have any suggestions...recipes, food accompaniment etc?
Back before refridgeration it was necessary to ferment cabbage to have the nutrients to ward off illness during the winter months. Nowadays, nobody eats Sauerkraut. I'm german and grew up there and literally no-one other than my Dad eats that stuff. People want french fries.... And since we can get fresh lemons in February, there is no need to ferment cabbage :-)
great video this sums up my whole summer of learning how to keto in one 5 min video and video information. lol TY
The average adult has about 1.2 to 1.5 gallons (4.5 to 5.5 liters) of blood circulating inside their body. :)
Excellent advice and information ☝🏻
I've been struggling with carb craving today - especially tonight since I've been fasting since lunch. I eat 7 to 10 cups veg daily and about the right fat/protein ratio. So I thought it's my PMS. Can that actually be a cause too, anyone? Only started keto / IF 2 months ago.
Fenugreek please
I'd like to see you cover the topic of cod liver oil vs. fermented cod liver
Hmm, can't eat liver! I tried and ugg. Gross and don't even get me started on sardines! I will stick with eggs as they are my number one go to food (the picture of the eggs in the video are the ones I eat!)
I can overeat the protein-fat combo, like chicken or cheese........but those dang carbs bring things to a crazy level. Bread, I could eat it and eat it, when the hell will I ever stop, who knows!
Dr. B what is your take on celery juice for liver cleanse? Your thoughts on this recipe I received for heavy metals from autism and general detox made of 1tbsp dulse, barley grass juice powder, (I know this is not part of keto, but on 2 bananas as well as 2 cups blue berries) 2cups kale and 1tsp of spirulina? Love your input Dr. B I'm so confused.
Dr berg. What can I say. But brilliant
can u do a detailed video on fatty acids and amino acids? because we know already so much about vitamins and minerals but not enough about these acids
Carbs are needed for people on building muscle
I've been through keto and normal diet with complex carb,and result is amazing on diet complex carb,high protein... Keto only for people wanna lose weight and maintain insulin
Sounds like "bro" science.
@@MarkNOTW is it? I ve been through this,and lose muscle on keto. How can I?
@@billybadass7718 yep,but its work really well for me,no offense
Dr. Berg can you please make a video on fixing amenorrhea and losing fat at the same time. Because "the people" say eat more and its bread pasta cereal etc carbs..
Another reason for craving carbs is low self discipline. It's crucial to sustain healthy diet
Agreed.
I eat one big meal a day usually then I want carbs as a snack...
Dr berg you keep talking about the SCIENTIFIC aspects about Sugar Cravings which i thank you for , but you should also speak about the mental aspect about it , and solutions for us prediabetic at the age of 15 and don't have a job to get some money to barley do keto and stop binging
maybe ;(
You forgot the pea protein! It also has nutrients like iron and selenium! It should be next after eggs. But dont worry you get it right the next time. ;-)
