I am appreciating all your videos. I've been binge watching them to understand what's going on with my body. I believe I'm stuck in catabolic state. I have had loose stools for years, I'm pre-diabetic (insulin resistant), my body is breaking down (arthritis and degenerating discs) and years of insomnia. Ive taken Ambien every night for 23 years. I have recently taken myself off the sleeping aid as I realize it shut my mind down for a couple of hours, but my body was not rested and I was tired when I woke. I just ordered some Ox Bile - that may help my slugish system. I just started using magnesium oil on my aching arthritic hip at night and I'm sleeping better now as I believe it helps. I also signed up for your free course. THANK YOU SO MUCH.
HI @S. Stephens, I'm hoping this video might give you some insights about the sleep troubles: ua-cam.com/video/3A-6QBWMWVw/v-deo.html and here is our video about correcting insulin resistance: ua-cam.com/video/3VHWrDvGvTQ/v-deo.html Please come back and let us know what type of progress you make.
I hope you are doing better. I was prescribed klonopin for sleep and was on it for 7 months. It utterly destroyed me. Seriously bad. But the symptoms were far enough away from when I started taking it that it took some time to put 2 and 2 together. I thought it was the original stress I was under caring for my 95 year old father. Ambien is also considered a benzo. I will never touch another sleep aid ever again! Stay well!!!!
Thanks for this video, i see it by chance ,this is the first time really i hear that insulin resistance is returned to catabolic matter, thanks ,waiting for another video about healing and recover this issue.
Your best bet could be to go through our totally free digestion course because that will walk you through running simple self-tests you can run at home to get an idea of what imbalances can be creating trouble, and what steps would help you correct them. You can find that free course here: kickitnaturally.com/course Come back and let us know how it goes.
Interesting... I see you suggest to stay away from fish oil if you are catabolic. Dr Lam who specializes in AFS talks about being in a catabolic state and he recommends fish oil. Also a quick search on "is fish oil catabolic or anabolic" shows many results saying fish oil anabolic. So really wondering if I should give up fish oil or not.
Yeah I’ve been wondering myself because I too am familiar with Dr Lam’s protocols. My husband is in catabolic imbalance and he seems to feel more energetic when supplementing with Rosita cod liver oil
I had a bad reaction 24 hours after starting an antibiotic. The ER told me to stay on it the full 10 days. Shortly thereafter, I was diagnosed with POTS and SFN. I also went from 205 pounds to 165 in 7 weeks, and never gained it back no matter what I eat. Frequent urination is my issue rather than diarrhea
Hi @Chris , It sounds like you might be leaning more on the anabolic side. We have a video on tachycardia here that could give you insights into POTS: ua-cam.com/video/XasKEUT5Tf8/v-deo.html and you'll definintely want to watch our video on an anabolic imbalance here: ua-cam.com/video/glvRt9z2fSE/v-deo.html But don't just go off of symptoms. You really want to look at your chemistry and do the self-tests we talk about in our free digestion course so you can get an idea of what is going on. If you've lost that much weight, something is happening. I'm actually making a video on "can't gain weight" this week, so make sure you're subscribed here so you don't miss that one: ua-cam.com/channels/EN08D5qYz8EHvwixHckYbg.html Let us know how it goes.
My sister deals with occasional insomnia, and hypertension at night. Very upsetting. She has addressed digestion, eats carnivore, and takes Redmond's salt.
Hey @mick m , taurine ia actually ver pro-catabolic and we use it to fix anabolic imbalances. So it would make an overly catablic person much worse. In my book, you can see a lot of supplements and foods that will push a person either direction. You can download that book for free here: kickitnaturally.com/free Hope that helps.
@@KickItNaturallyFantastic - this explains why I reacted like I did to Taurine…naturopath wanted taurine so that I'd absorb more magnesium…neither great if already mired in a catabolic state! 😮. I’m learning SO much from these videos and the older Apple podcasts…love those with Kinna and Will. (Will = 😔 😢). And your book. I bought your physical book cause I’m old and I like books. 😂
I react very poorly to Glutamate in MSG, emulsifiers like guar gum, xantham gum etc) I seemed to develop this sensitivity after a stressful event and can’t seem to shake it. Is it possible that it’s actually an adaptive response to try to move me from catabolic state to be more anabolic…trying to boost my blood pressure? I’ve had low blood pressure for decades, low minerals, osteoarthritis, etc. And did the breath rate test…low at 9. Boosting GABA better than reducing Glutamate? Work on my nervous system is underway!
Hm I have constipation and insomnia but I thought I’d be in a catabolic imbalance not anabolic. I take magnesium and it makes my symptoms much worse. Not sure if calcium is anabolic maybe I need more calcium and k2.

Hi. One one of your videos you commented about oxalates not being the issue, that it’s another issue. Can you tell me was missing if a person has challenges dumping oxalates?
Neither as far as I know. Most things are balanced in this regard. I go over supplements that can move anabolic or catabolic in my book and you can download that for free here: kickitnaturally.com/free
So I have all these symptoms and I also always feel dehydrated (hungover) even though I don’t drink alcohol. Can this cause dehydration? I feel dehydrated on a cellular level somehow. Like no matter how much water and electrolytes I drink, it does not hydrate me. The headaches really suck. FYI my urine test strips are always more on the acidic end. It’s hard to sleep, my bp and pulse are on the lower end always, more loose stools, etc and for some reason my bilirubin always seems to be slightly positive
Could eating one meal in a day in the evening with saturated fats, protein & eggs help realign the circadian rhythm if you are catabolic state dominant?
I suffered from muscle atrophy all over my body after overuse of antibiotics and chronic stress last year which was evident on my blood test report( creatinine dropped from 0.97 to 0.83). What can I do to reverse it?

I heard that Catabolic Imbalance can coast Vitiligo. Is it true? I got some white patchen on my skin when i was on very strict Fitness Bikini diet and working hard prepare for competition. I can not say that spresding fast but spreading. I do not eat white bread, any products containing wheat , i cut milk . I use almond milk but still spreading. :( ;(
there can be a lot of causes, and genetics can be a part of that. We talk about a lot of other causes in my book and you can download that for free here: kickitnaturally.com/free
I have been watching a lot of your videos due to struggling with gallstones. I have just watched this and i have been eating loads of fish and wild caught salmon since stopping all non processed foods. I am like so pist. But then i am seeing people on her say yhat other people say you should wat omega 3. So i just feel overwhelmed and confused. Also I pretty much think that I have catabolic, since loose stools my whole life. I have bought Taurine but know feel I cant take this but also it's an ingredient in Beetflow. So I don't get it.
Could this be why I’m going catabolic ? With my bodybuilding because I’ve worked night shift most my life so I trained at night in 24hr gyms about 12 midnight and got massive size gains but since switching to day shift and training during the day I’ve noticed I’m loosing size and getting loose skin around muscle it’s horrible 😳😩 does it mean that my body is more anabolic when I was training at night ? I’ve noticed that when ever I changed to day shift I loose size 🤷♂️

How can this be checked? How to understand if my body's overly anabolic or catabolic?

Here is our video on oxalate issues: ua-cam.com/video/pC5-MxW9d_g/v-deo.html
Side question My naturopath has prescribed Sucralfate. How does this work?
We're not allowed to give advice on medications in any way.
Niacin is anabolic or antyanabolic?
Neither as far as I know. Most things are balanced in this regard. I go over supplements that can move anabolic or catabolic in my book and you can download that for free here: kickitnaturally.com/free
So I have all these symptoms and I also always feel dehydrated (hungover) even though I don’t drink alcohol. Can this cause dehydration? I feel dehydrated on a cellular level somehow. Like no matter how much water and electrolytes I drink, it does not hydrate me. The headaches really suck.

Check to see if your electrolyte drinks have sucralose or other sweeteners and avoid
