Dr. Berg demonstrates the best way for a vegan to get into fat-burning correctly. This is based on the insulin index, which involves several actions of eating fewer meals and keeping insulin low. Reducing your sugars can then put you into ketosis (ketogenic diet).

Please more videos to vegetarians and vegans.. Thank you!!
Jordan Oliveira Agree
Pamela Showers meat eaters and lacto-vegetarians are cool. Vegans are fucking arseholes
3 years so far, has this information helped anyone?
Super curious, I'm a vegetarian and looking at low carb high protein options
@@grizzthegreen4500 it does help. I have been doing this for 4 weeks and I have seen a decrease in my body fat %. The only thing is that I’ve been eating red lentils, but even with that, considering his advice has helped me a lot 👍🏼
Not a vegan! But wish to be!
Thanks for including us vegans! Love it ❤️✌🏼❤️✌🏼
Hey Dr berg. Pls do more vegan keto videos. E.g. Meals in a day, or vegan recipes. Thank you.

Eat lots of healthy protein with your meals. It works for me with vegan foods, tofu, chia seeds, chickpeas raw nuts and seeds and other sources of protein. I stick to one or two meals a day with a calorie deficit.
Vegetarians and vegans I want to start vegan Keto. How do I do it? I would like to have a guide.
“If we add exercise that would be cool”

Lol 😂 😂

Your chanel is awesome. I would like to see more advise videos for vegans and vegan diet integrated with intermittent fasting. Thanks.
chezydan1 You're the truth happy healthy vegan
yes please!
ditto
yes!!
Agree! Would like to know too!
I am allergic to many meats. I left keto because of these allergies. I have gone WFPB. I am glad to see you are helping by Giving info to the vegan world. I finally have been meeting with success doing the vegan life style.
Would you mind telling me if how you decide what to eat to get all the nutrients that you need every day? I'd like to go Vegan. But I don't really know where to start.
Loved the move when he turned around and said "pancakes" :D
BoomChickaBoom haha. I looked out for it after seeing your comment. So cute dammit!
That's so Dr. Berg's way of humor, lol...
I did chuckle!

The world of nutrition of is so confusing.
It is the nature of most people to have a bias and those promoting any idea are going to have them, too. Then they will tend to see the evidence that supports their bias and vice versa. Sometimes evidence will get them to change their minds, but once they do, the new bias will affect how they look for and interpret evidence. So you are always going to get opposite recommendations from somewhere. Best wishes picking your way through and being honest with yourself about what needs to be central on your plate.
Eat healthy that's it
With proper amounts
Raman, if people could do that without help, we wouldn’t have a the problems we do. And who is to say what’s healthy? Modern foods and the love/hate relationship with eating promoted in the US, at least, have led to lots of conflicting advice on what and how much.
FINALLY SOMEONE THAT GETS ME itt isss😭😭the struggle
Ill be seeing so many videos and they all are a lil bit different from each other and if i avoid every food they say ill be eating nothing tf
Thank you Dr. Berg. I transitioned to a vegan diet from a meat, eggs, and dairy based low-carb diet to a vegan diet as you described above. I have had great success, so thank you for this video!
Are you still doing vegan diet
@@nizamansari569 Yes, definitely! Vegan is the way to go. I have lost 100 lbs! 😀
Been rocking this diet for over a month and it is doing miracles. Getting over the first couple weeks was hard, but once you fat adapt, it is so worth it. I am 50 yr female. Been a vegan for 6 years...but was overeating due to lack of fats, too much fruit, After only 33 days of keto I have almost totally healed my plantar fasciitis (which kept me from exercising), my blood pressure is way better....I have to make sure I have veggie broth just to get my sodium or it drops too low! My sleep is great, my digestion is way better, my energy levels are improved and my favorite part is how clear minded I am becoming. I used to overthink everything and now I have a more orderly (made my adult ADD disappear!) way of thinking. I am still fine tuning everything, but I have so much drive and focus that it is incredible. Thank you, Dr. Berg! I can't wait to see where I am at 6 months. OH and even though I didn't do this for weight loss, I have lost 15 pounds (around 8 water) and several inches.
Berkley ... can you pm me? I have some questions for you regarding meals ... starting this program this week! Thanks!
UA-cam changed the way you private message and I am having a time trying to find a way to pm you!
+Jennifer Klim Got it...go ahead and delete your email so that the whole world does not spam you :)
+Berkley Coupon Thank you so much - looking forward to talking to you!
Berkley Coupon Hi!! I have some questions too regarding meals! This seems like a very restrictive diet so I'm wondering what kind of recipes to prepare! Can you please guide me?!
This video is 4 years old. He has now said berries are ok but don't exceed 1 cup a day.
Great advice doctor . I’m a vegetarian and I started intermittent Fasting and I’m seeing great results .(watching all the way from Guyana, South America 🇬🇾)
Hey, how has your IF journey been? Can you share your experience until now?
I'm finding Dr. Berg's advice is quite useful for me. Actually, I came to the conclusion my body does better without the grains myself, but I'm thankful about the info on which beans may be best for those of us who need our vegan diet tweaked for fit our personal needs. I won't be following all of Dr. Berg's vegan dietary recommendations (again the personal "tweaking"), but I applaud him for not just dismissing vegans altogether.
Jan2010new My thought exactly. I have lightened my carbs, no grains or pastas, and have lost 9 pounds since December 10, so 7 weeks.(For me that is HUGE! I'm 55 years old and menopause adds new kinds of issues.)
@@awarenessvillage Have you maintained the loss?
Oh wow, I can't believe lentils are foods to avoid! Wow!
I'm so happy that he said mushrooms are low on the list. I love me some grilled mushrooms!
I never had a mushroom in my life.
Eat only when *truly* hungry, don't overeat /binge, intermittent fast for 24 hours once or twice a week (or everyday by skipping breakfast), exercise an hour a day (and, preferably "fasted"), keep starches (bread, rice, pasta and potatoes) and (fruit) sugars low.. *avoid oils* in favor of *whole foods* (eat *coconuts* instead of *coconut oil* , for example).. and there's your "recipe" for fat burning without having to give up any particular foods.
You're welcome. 😉
some of us end up deriving ultimate pleasure from avoiding sweet foods, however. I thought this may be temporary for me, but am coming to realize i hadn't really been a fan of sugary stuff anyway, except in moderation. Keto has been a great way for me to get some of those empty foods out of my life, while losing fat. Who knows if i'll keep it up 'til the end (didn't plan on it), but for now, i'm good.
I love the idea of going 1 to 2 days a week without food. I started doing a Wednesday and Sunday no food total fast mixed with 6 to 8 hours intermittent fasting the rest. Planning to switch it up though and start doing a two day consecutive fast on Saturday and Sunday to get more time at once in the low insulin, repair and detox zone.
If I skip breakfast I faint. Even if I delay it about an hour after waking up, I start getting so dizzy I cannot function. To me, breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Cannot even fast for medical procedures or cleansing. It's really annoying, and I wonder what might be the cause.
@@NeomiNemeth Right I bet not.
@@josephdavis5972 "Right I bet not?" 4 words randomly put together...lol...What does this mean?
These comments are confusing the shit out of me. Both sides are SO equally passionate, I'm still so confused about the best approach for weight/fat loss
try what this dr. says and if it works for you do that, maybe record what you ate to it might help. If not try something else just listen to what your body wants.
I am vegan, high carb low fat and gained weight, belly is huge, fat everywhere, so I will follow his advice
Carmenluisa 21 we have the same experience. Took forever to reverse it by eating a more healthy fats like flax seeds and hemp seeds that essential for hormonal balance. Carbs are good but you also need protein from other foods such beans, nuts and seeds
Viktoriya Gruzdyn thank you, I will follow your advice, I don't think I can ever go back to eating meat. It gross me out.
Carmen Luisa gaining weight on a Vegan diet can be a number of things. hormone imbalance, junk foods, and dairy content hidden in a lot of processed foods. you need to read the ingredients to make shure there is no dairy in it.
Lol, so many people's comments. :) if you listen correctly you'll know that he isn't an expert in veganism, but that's not the point. He gives some very good advice for any vegans who want to lose weight. This is more of a diet then a possible recommended a lifestyle. If anything, vegan should be thanking him for the great advice. The whole fruit thing actually makes a lot of sense at least temporarily. The other vegans on UA-cam who are very skinny and lots of fruit are already skinny. For those of us who could stand to lose 20 or 30 pounds not eating foods with lots of sugar and carbs makes sense. :) especially from a ketosis standpoint.
Brandon Esparza ok but the problem is that ketogenic diets cause early death 💀. so it's not worth the risks when you can eat a whole foods plant based diet which has only been shown to prolong life.
Are you familiar with the keto woe? There actually much evidence for the opposite. It's really a fascinating diet when done correctly.
Yes, I am familiar, here's a studying showing how meat-based keto increases mortality, other studies have found the same :
"A low-carbohydrate diet based on animal sources was associated with higher all-cause mortality in both men and women, whereas a vegetable-based low-carbohydrate diet was associated with lower all-cause and cardiovascular disease mortality rates."
www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2989112/
Why not just eat a whole foods plant-based diet which gives the weight loss and INCREASES longevity?
Interesting. A few challenges I see. The study was specifically geared toward low carb, but not specifically hi fat running on ketosis. I would be interested to see something like that. The other would be the ability to do a low carb, no meat diet. Possible yes, but very difficult. I'm open, but I've lost around 40 pounds and feel much healthier now than on vegan.
Brandon Esparza
I'm always curious about how diet affects how people feel and their health, so it's good to hear that you feel better by changing your diet! Are you doing keto as a vegetarian or vegan?
Thank you Dr. Berg! This was very helpful! I look forward to applying this guide/wisdom to my vegan/plant-based lifestyle.
I am new to your channel and I want to Thank You so much for doing a vegan chart.
All my life I was thin until, I turned 52 when we received news from our doctor that my husband had stage 4 brain cancer.
My stress level was out of control and
Unfortunately a year later my husband did passed away 😭 R.I.P. K.B.
I then became severely depressed and could hardly get out of bed.
I no longer was exercising, I had zero motivation to cook or eat so I was just eating junk mostly frozen vegan proceed foods and a lot of sugary snacks.
Fast forward to eight years later. I’m now fighting another battle but this time it’s my health.
I went from 90 pounds to 160 pounds. My doctor told me I am pre-dietetic and that I’ve lost muscle in my legs from not wanting to get out of bed and walk .
I am now out of bed, walking and eating a healthy plant base diet but the weight isn’t coming off as quick as I had hoped.
This is why I came to your channel to learn from you what I can do to continue to be motivated and to move forward eating the right foods at the right time and hopefully reverse some of the damages I’ve done to myself.
I’ve learned a hard lesson being vegan doesn’t always mean your healthy there’s a lot of unhealthy vegan foods out there and food isn’t the only thing our bodies need Exercise is also important not only for our muscles but also for our brain
The reason baked beans rate so high is because they aren't just beans. Brown sugar/molasses or other sweeteners are added to the dish. Most all beans (not just kidney) are super low.
Akuma Same thing I thought
Don't think he has enough knowledge when discussing nutrition (like most allopathic medical doctors) - best to listen to naturapaths or properly qualified nutritonists or dieticians. Unfortunately the majority of gps only sudy about 20 hrs of nutrition out of the 7 yrs at med school (the rest of their time is spent studying how to prescribe drugs that match symptoms, anatomy, physiology, pathology & biochemistry in the main)
Akuma what about black beans
I am also wondering about black beans. Beans seem to be such a healthy food especially since they provide fiber as well as protein and other nutrients. But I don't know their glycemic index number
I agree. I find lentils nutrional label are similar to even garbanzos. So why are lentils not good for insulin as rhe dr suggests. Both have similar profiles, lentils and garbanzos
this video is opposite from what im doing.. im eatting all the foods he says to avoid and has lost 45lbs in 7mo. i stat away from fat such as olive oil and butter..
Yeah me too. That is why it took me so long to actually lose weight and keep it off. Too many videos telling me to do what does not work and hard to maintain.
I want to know you're prespective on how intermittent fasting affects women's hormones
WOW!! This was amazing! I am a personal trainer and I can share this video with my clients and know that they will get the right information. Any videos for vegans and optimal health based on optimal nutrition is highly appreciated.
I'm vegan. This was helpful
Awesome! Thank you so very much!!! As a vegan, I've already lost 5 pounds in two days by following your advice!
How's that possible maybe 2 pounds in 5 days.
Water retention?
Initial weight-loss while carb starving is usually water weight. Eventually you'll even loose muscle with the fat, cause your athletic performance will likely suffer, due to lack or energy. Then when you're done carb starving and your metabolisme addapted and you start up the carbs again you're likely to jojo back or even over your previous weight. And you'll be looking for a new diet fed to follow, most of the ones out there promote caloric restriction and carb starving, probably cause of that happy initial weight-loss on the scale.
Love Yourself Always thank you I found this very helpful but where do meat substitutions fall on the list
Eelke Aptroot when you become keto adapted you have an increase in energy, and keto actually preserves muscle mass, muscle isnt that easy to lose, since keto ive been able to do more reps from my personal experience.
No fruits at all? Oh God, I already know that it would be impossibile for me. I adore summer fruits 🤦♀️
I love berries 😫
@@myfragilelilac half a cup or so are fine😊
This is just to lose weight. Once you achieve your goal, eat what you want
Thank you! Sometimes your videos can seem kind of anti-vegetarian. (A lot of keto/ low-carb videos do.) I’m trying to do both and don’t like feeling like I have to choose sides. I don’t plan on giving up fruit forever, but I’m going to try giving it up for January, and then bringing berries back in February. Every other low-carb thing I’ve read has been ok with berries.
I usually eat fruits for breakfast and I've also measured my blood sugar after eating fruits in an empty stomach. My blood sugar levels have been really low then, only like 4,5 mmol/l. Not all people are the same. Some people might do better on fat, others on carbs.
Eevu Poijärvi I got super fat following the advice to eat only fruit for breakfast and to “carb up”.
Liora Sitelman yea I don’t I lost 140 pounds eating high carb so yea people are just different
People are reducing insulin resistance on fruit. Mastering diabetes has a method. Being zero fat with fruit and carbs apparently helps.
Ya u can eat only fruit and have very low blood sugar , i had that happen to me too. Fruit is not the same as bread
Thanks for this. I have been vegan for almost 2 months. Before this I pretty much ate junk food and I am obese. Since I lost little weight. I have ate more healthier as I quit junk food. I have been eating more whole food, veg, fruit, beans, legumes. I felt a little better but it's slow weight loss.
Yeah I have some great days, however it's been tough. I am having craving, I want meat, I want sugar. I have to allow myself some healthier vegan sweet food such as raw cacao hot choc and some vegan choc, had some junk food but not much because I found it tough.
I felt so sad and alone in it because I thought I would get better instantly and the weight would drop off. Now it makes sense that it takes time for all the bad things to get out my system first.
This definitely makes me more motivated. I think my next step is to cut junk all together, gluten and do some exercise.
Thank you. I just started this way of eating having worked out myself that this is what I needed. 16:8 fasting, no snacking. 8 hrs sleep. I can already see my belly disappearing after five days! It’s taken me years and a zillion diets that didn’t work to work out that I needed to cut out carbs as well as sugar. I’m insulin resistant, prediabetic but not for long. I was on the Patrick Holford low GL diet a few years ago, and that was the closest thing to this and I lost 6kg in 6 weeks, but only two meals a day is better for me and adding keto to it as well has certainly got results!
Thank you so much for all of this great information! You have been such a blessing to me! I've implemented a lot of your teachings and I'm starting to feel better. I have a long way to go, but I feel confident in your guidance. Thanks again!
Thank You for all the amazing information! I was super confused and frustrated because a high carbohydrate vegan diet only made me gain weight more. This has helped me greatly :)

De berg you helped me learn how to lose weight fast. I went from 149 to 125 and that was too skinny, so I stopped doing Keto and just now try eating vegan/ vegetarian and I just want to be healthy and stay a nice weight.
Are you still doing vegan diet
I'm interested in "The Starch Solution" and what your thoughts are
Berries?? They have SO many phytonutrients in them that I would say that any insulin effect would be negligible. These phytonutrients modulate and numerous positive effects on the body. Cost benefit is still in favor of berries. Same goes for many fruits. Dr Furhman has a lot of science to back this up.
Stop just taking the word of what is supposed to happen and use a glucose monitor to see what actually happens. Phytonutrients cannot make up for glucose spikes. If you don't get a spike of more than 30-40 points with berries, have at them, but not a lot, maybe half a cup because they don't have as much of nutrient concentration as most green veggies.
I lost 20lb on a keto vegetarian diet but now I am vegan and would like some advices on how to get the protein without the carbs in a vegan diet. Love your Chanel! Thank you 🙏🏻
I've been following your channel for a while, you break things down so easily, just a big thanks to all your work!
Hello Dr. Berg, firstly I want to say thank you for making your videos, as an ex-junk-food-vegan (currently a healthy-whole-foods-y vegan) I learnt so much about the liver through your videos. I love how thorough and informative and passionate you are in your videos. I have a question, i got a concussion about 15 days ago, prior to this I had a lot of gut issues that i gradually corrected through watching your videos ( rectal bleeding and lots of mucus in stool) i cleaned up my diet which helped reduce and eliminate the inflammation I believe, however a year later, i have a concussion. I was reading ( even though I shouldn't be online ) that a ketogenic diet is best for healing TBI ; I watched this video in the hopes to get some more information on how to reduce carbs ( i still eat couscous and sweet potato and brown rice as a main source of carbs, i tried doing this to gain weight before
my concussion because I began exercising again) I have always been very thin ( even before being vegan) and I guess my fear is, if I go into a full-blown vegan ketogenic diet that I lose more weight. I noticed since the concussion whenever I eat a full meal ( with carbs) i need to sleep (aside from other horrible symptoms that come with a concussion). I only had this problem in the past when i had the GI issues. I guess my question is; will going on a full-blown vegan ketogenic diet cause me to lose weight ? I want to stabilize the blood-sugar levels so that my brain can find stability in it's trauma right now, but I don't want to lose weight, what would you suggest? thank you again, I don't expect you to answer this, but just tying on here just in case you might, lots of love from Montreal, Canada !
Thanks doc.. This is much needed for vegans like us 🙏🏻
Probably my favorite video from Dr. Berg. Been trying to lose weight for a while, and trying low carb and ketogenic has been a struggle. I’m not a big meat eater, but fats seem to ward off hunger longer.
Being a busy mom usually means that I end up grabbing cheese snacks and processed meats, and I just don’t want to eat that stuff. I prefer to eat better and less often.
Thank you so much! our life is improving so much! thanks for all your videos and knowledge.
Thank you for such an informative video on how to eat to suppress insulin. I’m a vegan who is into intermittent fasting and having just 2 meals a day but I never knew that berries and fruits in my smoothie could be slowing my fat loss. Will incorporate more veggies instead
This was really helpful... I have a question how does the apple cider vinegar help? Also, wouldn't this help with overall weight loss and not just belly fat?
It helps all kinds of fat loss. I believe he highlights belly fat because it is caused by insulin resistence and is seriously difficult to get rid of and causes health problems down the road.
rz0 not saying I agree or disagree, but can you cite sources for this?
rz0 well honest at least lol
Frenchblue8 Lol!
I'm vegan and eat all the foods on the avoid list!! It's hard enough being vegan, now you just took away all foods! 😂

So go back to your ancestral diet. Meat heals.🥩🥩🥩
@@grizzthegreen4500 It really helped me! I am vegan since 2017 and I gained some weight because all I did was eat all the carbs in the world every single meal and sometimes followed by sugars . So I started last summer avoiding gluten , high sugar, and high carb foods and do intermittent fasting (16:8) . I was 67 kg in the summer, now I m 61 , and I had a lot of cheat periods , but always come back to it. So it s really working and it helped me with my energy level as well :)
Keto is tapping into fat, almost starving! That's how I feel. But it works.
@@aleciafredenthal2817 Our ancestors ate grains.
Thank you Dr. Eric Berg! This was very helpful. It would be very beneficial if you could develop more material on Ketogenic diet for vegetarians/ pesco vegetarians/ vegan. Thank you, Dr. Berg, i love your videos!
Thank you so much, I've been looking for a a vid like this forever
Ugh this is why I feel so stuck. I never know what's right. I'd love to eat a plant foods diet but really need to lose weight. This is the opposite of what others say. Jesus why did we have to freaking process all our foods? Maybe I wouldn't be in this situation. Because I feel stupid not knowing what to EAT and how to LIVE. 😒
Literally THE SAME FEELING. So frustrating!!!!! Goshh
Mariana Rincon cant there just be one right way?! Ugh. 😑
Yeaa I mean.. it's already hard enough to change your food habits.. and make this huge effort to stick to your meal plans and buying the right food and cooking and bla bla.. but also you're going to do that without knowing if it's gonna work out!!! I mean .. you can even get fatter! And that's the problem because a healthy diet doesn't mean a healthy weight! And if u add the spiritual or the human part for example.. we wouldn't even be eating meat.. but then you see this smart doctor talking and he recommends meat.. WHAT A MESS
Add a fasting routine and you'll drop weight. I eat plant based as well, and it's maddening. So I found water only fasting is the only answer. Plus it is such a health booster.
If one just eats large amounts of Greens (The healthiest food there is) then you don't have to choose fat or carb. ...you can have a little of each.
Nice vid, but those restrictions are too extreme. Have tried this type of diet again and again and always fail. Not even fruit??...impossible for me.
If you eat lots of salad it reduces your appetite for sweets/carbs
+Karen Seard By adding more fat - it makes it easier
+Eric Berg you idiot carbs are life
+Vegan russell Dr. Berg recommends TONS of low-glycemic carbs...7-10 cups of vegetables per day minimum, plus green drinks, kale shakes...there's no lack of carbs while eating this way, just simple sugars.
Jimvesterstallone the simple sugars are life, humans are most designed to eat fruit, it catches our eye, if fits in our hands, we naturally have sweet tooth. You are denying ur DNA
"GHEE..even though comes from an animal, is sometimes accepted in a vegan diet." UH NOO?? if you're "accepting ghee" in your food lifestyle, you are Not vegan. You are Vegetarian.

Veganism is so deficient even Dr. Berg can't comprehend that people actually do it lmao.

Thank you for all your videos! They are great! I've been following the 8:16 method as best I can for a month now and have dropped 16Lbs this month.
I have a question that I have been trying to work out a routine on. I am vegan, I work 12 hour shifts.
What do you recommend to put in coffee first thing in the morning ( coconut oil has been my best solution but it's over 30 calories)
Also I cannot put off eating until lunch break at 1130 when I get up at 530 and work until 7. I was getting headaches even with a lot of water. What eating time schedule would you recommend?
Thanks for all your help with your videos they are great!! ☺️☺️☺️☺️
Is there a meal plan I can follow with those foods?
Swap the ghee with coconut oil in that list vegans don’t consume any animal byproducts. Thank you so much for your wisdom
Thank you Doc. You explain everything so intelligently. Trying this and will update.
I agree.Well organized and lovely video.
This is so helpful! I’m ovo-vegetarian, I’ll be adding eggs to the list. Thank you so much 😊
I don't know why this still needs to be said, but -- NOT ALL VEGANS ARE ALIKE. If you're doing HCLF and you're happy and healthy, great! If you're doing the high-fat paradigm recommended here (without the ghee, obviously) and you're happy and healthy, great! I have tried many different dietary paradigms to find what works for me. But no two humans are identical (and I know several sets of monozygotic twins) so it's ridiculous to think that any ONE diet will work for everyone. Find what works for you, but don't assume it will work for everyone. Why do so many vegans not know this??? Smh.
PREACH
I am just now learning this. Seems so obvious and it takes a while to find what works for you. But I think you are right.
zxy atiywariii I'm glad this video exists, because it relays medical consensus in a way that applies to people who can't get their nutrition from meat.
im just happy he even acknowledged vegans at all lol.. but tbh why wouldnt vegans talk to vegan doctors?!
That's nonsense, our biology is the same and made for plants. It's just like saying "cats are all different, some need meat, some get sick of it and are vegans."

When he says skip breakfast he's talking about intermittent fasting! " Not starving yourself". Some people lose fat on a hclf diet but it's not for everyone some people consume nuts and seeds and still lose weight there so many things that work for each individual person! As he said people who have belly fat have insulin resistants! They also have a hormone problems that need to be fixed!

Bodies are different. I gain on high carb vegan & I lose and feel energetic on high fat vegan. ❤️
I receive a lot of comments from vegan detractors of the low carb diet, saying they would never do it, because of their ethical beliefs concerning animals. Well, now that I can point them to this video, they have no excuse. Furthermore, a vegan version of low carb is cheap. Someone with a very limited income can do it for very little cost, as the most expensive part of a conventional low carb diet is the meat. Thanks Dr. Berg for this information.
+Drake Santiago They are detractors because they don't have the willpower to do it. And I'm not sure I would be able to either if I couldn't eat bacon, eggs or sardines first meal of the day.
Amazingly clear, helpful and encouraging. Thank you
Thank you so much for including vegan keto, Dr Berg! I recently found & subbed to you for all the other great/helpful I was finding abt sugar and carbs, but I didn't know you'd ever addressed veganism until just now when I specifically searched "vegan keto"! I just watched your vid abt EPA & DHA/microalgae, too!🙂✨
Hi Dr.Berg. I'd love to know what you think about Turmeric & Pepper, apparently it has great health benefits.
+Eveline Hodges Love them!!!!
+Eric Berg, Can we please have a printable list of these foods?
Tumeric and ginger especially are fantastic. Apple cider vinegar with water in the morning is great to kick start your metabolism. I do this every morning
Can you please make a meal plan 🙏💕
Dr. Berg you give amazing suggestions in depth.. thanks!!
I've gone from a 48 to a 38 inch waist in the past year eating a 99% vegan diet (i'm a lacto-vegetarian). The biggest change I did was to not eat rice and I eat pasta instead which has a lower glycemic effect than rice. I also eat a lot of healthy vegetables like carrot, beet, cucumber, tomato, onion, eggplant, and okra. I eat peanut butter and dark chocolate in between or after meals to get enough glucose for the brain.
finally!! I got the answers to my question on vegan wt loss. Thank you and so easy to understand
For the Weight loss green store tea product itself, it seems to be helping with my weight loss, and I believe it is a great product due to it working without any negative consequence. However, I never had a chance to find out how it would work without the dieting and exercising. And for the company, they really cares about its customers and wants to make sure they are happy with the product! I would not hesitate to recommend this product for my friend, and actually 3 of my friends already purchased this product after they saw I did lose lots of weight.
If you let the diet control with Weight Loss GreenStoreTea , you’ll look like a cinnamon roll.

The most helpful video I have seen on this topic curtailed to my diet. Thank you.
More of these dr. Berg! Vegan keto advice from you please?❤️
This is a really great video and I appreciate the way you explain fat burning and insulin. My only question is this: I eat a raw vegan diet with a lot of healthy fats (all on your ok list!). I try to eat only two large meals a day, but I do eat good amount of fruit. I am able to maintain a perfect weight this way, so why do you think that is? I understand the idea of sugar being a problem regardless of where it comes from, but I don't want to avoid fruit because of it's hydrating nature and it's nutrient content. I don't understand the idea of saying no to fruit, although I am open to hearing more on the topic. But it seems I am able to maintain a perfect weight even with some fruit in my diet. (Mostly mangos, watermelon, papaya, and banana.) Why do you think this is? (Asking sincerely)
Can you suggest suitable meal plans for a vegan diet based on this insulin scale. If rice, potatoes and wheat is off the menu then what would be replacing those things in your daily meals?

Hello! I've been watching your channel for a while now and I love it! I was wondering, where does Tempeh fall on this list?
Great video, Eric! Thank you! :)
last year I had the tail of my pancreas removed. it has left me pre diabetic. I am not on any meds . I just eat a low carb diet and some exercise. my fasting glucose is the one that's high every morning in the diabetic range..over 126. can you do a segment on pancreatic operations and diabetes? thanks Gina
Youre a genius, that is all I can say!!! Actually I will add - it is wonderful to find a physician that is so passionate about what he does that he takes so much time to do the research to look outside the box of traditional medicine. Most physicians prescribe often unnecessary and sometimes toxic medications. There is so much we can do to heal our bodies ourselves before serious disease takes hold. Im a believer. 💗🙌🏽👌🏽 Subscribed.
+Elle L Only a medical doctor can be a genius?
+Jimvesterstallone LOL My thoughts exactly. I dont have that narrow a view of the world
+Elle L -Not sure what you mean about not taking things at face value in regards to this video. I see a doctor (not MD) but a holistic doctor that has helped many people. Does it matter how he has acquired his knowledge, or does it matter more that he has acquired knowledge that he wants to share to help people? He doesnt just have this channel, he has a practice in which he successfully treats patients? Last I recall, thats what a doctor does, he tries to heal people. Duh.
+Elle L I hate to state the obvious, but it seems necessary...Dr. Berg never said "fruits cause problems." The video is specifically about losing belly fat, not what foods we should or should not eat in general apart from that problem. He does not advocate one way of eating over another. He recognizes that each person has innumerable, unique physical qualities, which means that one person might thrive eating a certain way while another person's health would fail eating the identical way. This video is purely about tackling a specific problem some people have. That is all.
Wow thank you!!!!! I really appreciate your this video, thanks again 😊
Thank you, I’m going to apply this to my diet.
Skipping breakfast is intermittent fasting. Call it what it is, because you can do that with carbs and lower insulin too (and it's flexible). I should note I've had sugar problems for years on a vegan diet and intermittent fasting is the first thing that has helped me! Mainly because ketogenic is so miserable. I like to think you have intermittent fasting videos I've not seen and that's why you didn't mention it...
I have been vegan for 28 years and had no health problems at all. What were you eating to give you sugar problems? And why, pray tell, would you even bother to discuss this with Eric Berg, who is a non vegan?
***** If diabetes runs in your family it's hard for people to avoid this issue and they're likely pre-diabetic, myself included. Your dr won't diagnose you as such until you're full blown diabetic. It didn't matter what I ate. I had issues all my life with my insulin levels until intermittent fasting. He made a video about IF soon after this and considering this video is addressed to vegans maybe he listens to everyone and not just his omnivore viewers.

I doubt very seriously he knows a damn thing about vegans. And also,I know at least three people who have healed their diabetes by going vegan.
***** Mark, I've learned in life not to presume I know everything. Maybe try doing the same.
glenda anderson lol
OMG... no way. This guy needs to check out nutritionfacts.org . This is CRAZY.
great valuable information!! thank you so much!
Well explained Dr Berg ! Thank you !
No, ghee is not acceptable in a vegan diet Vegans eliminate EVERYTHING that is, derived or even partly related to any animal whatsoever. Vegetarian diets on the other hand, do. And I want to say, low carb/GI veganism is EXTREMELY difficult, so no one can essentially go as low as meat-eaters can, so you NEED to stress the fact that eating avocados 7 times a day is NOT the answer.
But I am curious, is the insulin effect relatively equal if you let's say consume 2 tablespoons of rice as opposed to an entire cup serving?
Thank you thank you thank you. I notice when I eat veggies leave out the rice and the processed vegan food I loose weight quicker. Now I know why.
Wow! Really well explained and without condescending comments ❤️😁 you have the heart of a teacher, thank you for making this.
This was very helpful.Thankyou.
Everything in the avoid list is what I eat the most of on a daily basis. I love fruit, beans, rice, corn and especially potatoes.
and do you have a lot of fat on your body? because this diet seems ridiculous. I'm starting a vegan diet soon- in a few days- after becoming pescetarian, then vegetarian and elimination of direct dairy and eggs. But i'm not gonna survive on pecans, avocado's and vegetables, i need the fruit! i love fruit! and i need the rice, potatoes and beans, as u say you eat them most of the time. But i need to lose a few kilo's (about 10 to be healthy, got a lot of fat). Did you lose fat eating fruit, beans, rice, corn and potatoes when starting the plant-based diet?
would appreciate a reply! :)
+Lena Divjak Check out Freelee the Banana Girl's channel. Just search her name and you will be sure to find her.
@@lena3494 I've lost weight eating only fruit, potatoes, grains, beans and veggies without a calorie deficit. Took me almost a year to lose 50 lbs. Make sure to drink enough water, sleep enough and exercise regularly and weight loss will happen :)
Interesting video. I'd like to learn about weight loss after menopause. Frustrating!
I'm definitely with ya there! 😨

+Eric Berg Watch out for Freelee The Banana Girl
+Eric Berg She's on youtube and social media, look her up, she has a beautiful healthy vegan lifestyle. She eats 10 bananas for a meal, dates, potatoes. Look her up and you'll see what I mean.
+Mucha Felicidad Yes...she is young and beautiful but she is not insulin resistant. She is very active, too. Those of us who are insulin resistant and don't do excessive workouts do not get the same results as she does. I have seen many vegans have trouble with weight gain as they get older and don't exercise as much.
Wow! Finally someone that goes straight to the point.
Hi Dr Berg, thank you so much for all the learning! I would love to know your opinion on carnithine supplementation to lose weight. Thank you again 😊🙏
Could no longer take him seriously after “avoid all fruit” 😂
Learning to take in information that conflicts with your own biases and preconceptions is a difficult thing to do, for sure. Fruit may be less harmful than raw sugar, but it is still a sugary treat, not a health food.
thank you for making a video for vegans :)
This was so exciting for me. Thank you.
This is so exciting! Currently doing a keto diet and that consists of shakes and two small meals where everything is extremely limited and this isn't working for me. I realize the plan is extremely outdated. Looks like I will do this another way.....the way you just suggested. THANK YOU!!!
