1:18 3 things that trigger insulin: Carbs, eating, insulin resistance 3:55 You need to do the healthy version of ketogenic diet, you need to do intermittent fasting 4:02 You can add the following to take it to the next level: • Lemon • Apple cider vinegar • cinnamon 4:30 Apple cider vinegar has acetic acid and acetic acid is a potent blood sugar lowering compound, it will help make insulin more sensitive and less resistant, it will help lower your blood sugars even if you eat some carbs. 4:54 In lemon there's various things, there's citric acid, there's phytonutrients, there's vitamin C. The phytonutrients in lemon juice make insulin more sensitive and they make insulin less resistant. 5:50 Cinnamon has a potent effect on making insulin more sensitive and helping your blood sugars be more regulated. In one study they took 543 diabetics and gave them cinnamon and the average person dropped their blood sugars by 24 points which is very significant. 6:39 The other cool thing about lemon, apple cider vinegar and cinnamon is that they all tend to help reduce fat on your liver, and like discussed they reduce insulin, they help blood sugars, they also help regulate your cholesterol, they help your liver make more bile, lemon water also has citrates to decrease your risk of getting kidney stones and all 3 are very anti-inflammatory. 7:10 Instructions: • Water: 16 ounces • Lemon juice: 1 ounce - or a whole lemon • Apple cider vinegar: 1 to 2 tablespoons (Bragg's not recommended by Dr. Berg, Fairchild's is recommended) • Cinnamon: a pinch Shake it up or blend the whole thing, if you don't like the taste you might want to add a few drops of liquid stevia. Some people also use Dr. Berg's electrolyte powder (one scoop). Drink the whole thing before your meal. Thank you Dr. Berg Sincerely, 11 : 11 Meditation Portal Channel
Thank you for the guidance. I had over 1000 glucose reading when I went to the ER to discover why I was blind and practically comatose, I was beyond the measure of their equipment. Since your advices, I am at 108 fasting glucose. I am on metformin and take Cinammon capsules daily. I was 365 lbs. Now I am 295 lbs. I weightlift and swim daily, drink water, black coffee, and plain green tea. I eat meat only hamburger, chicken, and fish with cabbage, avocado, nuts, cucumbers, and celery 2x per day.
I weighed 330 pounds at the beginning of June of 2022 I did intermittent fasting. One meal a day zero sugar low carb foods. I'm currently 192 I'm pretty happy but would love to be 180, I admit I've fallen off the wagon a few times just because of negative life changes that has affected my emotional state. I'm trying to salvage what progress I've made and not let it all be for nothing
@@uzmakashif4131 buddy you have no clue on the mechanics of mental health and addiction you don't know me or why I ate as much as I did. You are not in the position to lecture anyone
Best thing that happened to me in years is doing OMAD and having my pants fall down in Safeway within 2 weeks. Embarrassing!!! But I've never felt better! Thanks so much Doctor!!! Back to my skinny jeans and continuing on my OMAD journey.
My neighbour is 98 years old and very fit. She lives alone, does all her own shopping and cooking, loves knitting and sings kareoke every week in the local pub. I asked her for health tips. 1. For the last 80 years she has started the day with a glass of warm water with fresh lemon juice in it. 2. Never smoked.
I'm at 80 pounds down this year so far. Got 35 more to go. Honestly I can't tell a difference but I used to wear a 2x shirt and now I fit into a large and wore 40 in jeans and now wear 32. It's weird how I don't feel any different
@@zeus3473 keep pushing. I feel so much better and much happier. Saved my life. Doctor is right about fasting and insulin. All my inflammation went away. I was almost borderline diabetes and also borderline sleep apnea. All gone. 330 pounds down to 230. Plus I am 6 foot 2.
Listen to this doc. 5 years ago I got into keto because of him and lost 70lbs in like 6 months. Unfortunately I got into a relationship and lost my way and gained the weight back along with some depression. This week I have started my journey back and will be even better than before. Keto works, intermittent fasting works and I am going to try this combo as well. Thanks Doc.
I personally lost 30 kg of weight without losing any muscle and strength. Losing fat is incredibly easy if you know what your doing. When I lose fat, my diet is high protein, high fat and very low carb. This worked great for me. I do strength and lactic acid training, and I also do cardio 2x a week (1x HIIT and 1x steady state). If there is one advice I can give to anyone struggling to lose fat, then it is to AVOID CARBS! This keeps insulin low and improves insulin sensitivity. Eat high protein and healthy fats, especially MCTs.
@@Loveafricalovetheworld He educate his followers, he speaks facts, I rather ask Dr Berg for an advice than a regular doctor they don't know a lot of things thats why i prefer home remedies but since I found Dr Berg I follow all his advices because they work.
I just spent an hour defending Dr Berg on a video of this Abbey influencer on here uploaded a video mentioning Dr Berg I’ll post the link below now.. WoW she didn’t expect her video to back fire like it did But it Did 😄 Jealousy is ugly she needs to learn. I For 1 Am really Grateful That Dr Berg is helping so many of US Get healthy! 🫶
I've always struggled with my weight, this week I did a 48 hour fast, it was hard, but it put me in such a high level of ketosis that it has been suppressing my appetite massively all week, today I didn't get hungry and eat until 7pm.
I live in a hot country (Australia) I am of German descent, 65yo born in Oz, 1st gen. I was told by Drs in the early days that my diet was too heavy, cholesterol laden and too much butter, too many eggs, but everything I ate was close to natural. I was not a sweet eater. After changing my diet from European to 'Drs advice meals' eating I started a downward spiral into being unhealthy, overweight and a Type 2 diabetic. Tablets, insulin... you name it. One & 1/2 yrs ago I met Dr Berg online..... best thing I ever did. I have lost 30 kilos back to eating Sauerkraut, dill pickles, butter etc and have no insulin issues... only goes to show.
That’s amazing I’m glad you’re feeling better!! And yes the ‘modern recommended diet’ is so bad .. it’s strange how doctors don’t seem to recognise that all these issues with obesity in society didn’t start until _after_ the health industry started demonising fat in food :o Also sauerkraut is amazing. I used to make my own and would love to again! :)
@@Vexarax Thank you but I think Dr Berg deserves the highest accolades. I make my own Sauerkraut too but make a quick version as in a Sauerkraut Salad.
This is crazy. I just started drinking water with a cinnamon stick in it after drinking a cup of it after a massage. I HATE water and I noticed that the cinnamon stick adds a hint of sweetness. I noticed that my stomach was flatter but I couldn't figure out why. The body and Eric Berg always know what's best.
Hello Dr Berg, hope you see this. I intermittent fast, and eat primarily protein and vegetables. I’ve tried drinking Apple cider vinegar many times over the years and can never stick to it because it’s too sour. I enjoy lemon and lime juice much more. I bough organic lemon juice concentrate from Sprouts. With that said, what you’re suggesting, water, lemon juice, acv, cinnamon and stevia is sooooo delicious! The cinnamon really mixes well with the tartness of the juice and acv. Plus, the stevia also ties it all up. It’s easy to drink this 3x per day because it’s delicious!
This is great because I lost 103 pounds in ten months and I lost my belly too. But I had a bit of loose skin to deal with and as Dr Berg says, this takes it to the next level.
@@brianandlynphilippines I still intermittent fast after three years and while that alone may have been enough to get rid of loose skin...flab, drinking water with lemon juice feels like it has helped.
@@RobCLynch thank you so much for the information yeah what I do the intimate and fasting I've tried it just to see if I can actually sustain and do it even when I do it for 2 days I can feel my skin tighter so I'm excited to try this but adding the drinks it really buckling down and getting serious about this and seeing the results
Just what I needed to hear!! I have all 3 of those symptoms that now I understand why I've slowed way down on weight loss! I will add more ACV, lemon and cinnamon to my fasting! Thank You Dr. Berg!
How do you manage these drinks when you’re fasting? Do you take one before a meal (eating window) or do you drink them through the day without it breaking your fast? I find I have a lot more energy if I eat two small meals a day. One big feed a day (OMAD) makes me feel awfully lethargic and sick - so the less I stimulate the insulin response the better.
Dr.Berg, since watching your videos I have become so informed of causes and effects of pre-diabetes and diabetes. The way you teach/share information and instruct has restored my faith in the weight loss journey. I am pre-diabetic,over weight and African American. My health care provider told me not to worry as I’m active. I knew this was crazy talk because of the pre-diabetic diagnosis. I asked do I wait to become fully diabetic before intervention???😒. You videos have taught me what to do for my health. Thank you a million. Sincerely, Shelvia
I completely agree! My DR also said I was fine even though I look 4 months pregnant! And because I walk to and from work apparently this should make me lose weight but it has not at all! Thank God for Dr Eric Berg he is an absolute God send!!!! He has defineatly changed my life so much.
Back in 2014 at 6.8 I was in the "high risk for diabetes" category my weight was 104kg but in 6 weeks on a keto shake diet I lost 10kg and ALL my readings returned to normal blood sugar 4.5 cholesterol normal (instead of almost needing cholesterol medication) and also my heartburn I was on maximum medication levels but after 6 weeks I went off the heartburn medication altogether. The only heartburn medication that had worked for me was the absolute strongest stuff and I worried because that medication causes osteoporosis for sure. But I just couldn't get rid of the heartburn until I lost weight. Then suddenly it was gone along with all my other health problems including angina. IT WORKS, don't wait until you're diabetic or until you have a stroke or a heart attack. You don't need a doctor to tell you you're fine if you know you're not fine. Choose to be healthy. I lost 40kg in 18months and I looked and felt awesome I walked 90minutes every morning on an incline and I swear I lost the most weight during the 4 months I gave up caffeine and soft drinks I found it almost impossible to stick to my diet when I started them up again, not realising it was the chemical sweeteners destroying my insulin resistance that made sticking to my diet so difficult. . Make the change its so worth it. You can do it ! ❤
I drink mix: water, cinnamon, black pepper, turmeric, ginger, honey. (when I mix it right it tastes like apple cider) Thank you Dr. Berg, I will now add lemon! 😀
You are such an amazing teacher, Dr. Berg. We love you, and those of us who live below the poverty level so appreciate and bless you for making it possible for us to learn these urgently important things.
Dr Berg! I am down 12 pounds after trying Macros and wasting quite a bit of money on meal preps from a local company. Now doing keto and IF (20:4)! Feel better. Sleeping better. Evening seeing better! Thank you for your continued help and guidance
You continue to educate me on my entire body. You are the only Dr that explains things in detail and I appreciate that. I eat so differently because of you and I am extremely healthy. Thank you!
As a type 1 diabetic of 34 years I am very confident I am not dealing with too much insulin as I know exactly what I take each day and it is very little. However, I am struggling with recent weight gain and it is frustrating because I am doing it all as recommended. I came across a study on long COVID (I had COVID in December of 2020, didn’t get sick just lost sense of smell and felt lethargic). What I found in the study very much described what I was dealing with. The recommendation was adding melatonin and sunlight exposure (I am very active outside hiking, mountain bike or gravel cycling at least five days a week for several hours). I added 20mg of melatonin and purchased a medical grade red light and have had a huge improvement in energy and started loosing fat. What the study found was the inability to use fat for energy creation in mitochondria in long COVID patients. I suspect more people are suffering then realize and the solution has been pretty simple. I wish the information was easier to find but the study itself is fairly recent. As for the daily drink, I had been relying on Diet Coke out of desperation due to fatigue (I know awful but as a mother to five that is very active it is an easy trap to fall into when no one seems to be listening to you about not being “right”) I drop the DC cold and started making soda water using a soda stream (got it for free otherwise would make drink without it) I add the juice of one lemon, the juice of one lime, 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar and maybe a teaspoon of honey from my bees (takes the edge off and my kids drink it willingly so a compromise I am willing to make plus the potential allergy benefits). I got the idea from another video where you recommend the lemon and Apple cider vinegar and I must say two weeks into it I feel like my gut health is improving too. My bloodsugars didn’t need any help and my insulin dosing can’t really get much lower so that help is hard to notice but it really is beneficial for how it helps one feel. I have had better regulation when exercising like my fat burning threshold has gotten higher before I have to start watching that my body can manage the switch to needing carbs vs fat on endurance rides.
Make this simple drink to start losing weight fast. Ingredients: • 16 oz water • 1 oz lemon juice or 1 blended lemon • 1 to 2 Tbsp apple cider vinegar (Fairchild’s brand) • 1 pinch cinnamon • A few drops stevia or 1 scoop electrolyte powder (optional) Either shake or blend all of the ingredients. Have this drink 2 to 3 times per day (before a meal when possible). Thank you Dr Berg!
@@thebowlerusa1that’s what’s confusing me as well. What’s also confusing me is if you’re doing IF can you only drink it during your eating period? If you’re doing a water fast, can you drink this while water fasting?
You keep us inspired. Thank you Dr Berg. I've been doing intermittent fasting for sometime now and I can definitely say that I don't have any hunger or any cravings and I definitely feel much better. Green tea plus a few slice of lemon is amazing cleared my skin in a week.
The last fasting insulin I did was about 6 or 8 months ago. At that time it was 10 after a 78 hour fast. I have been what i call "paleo plus" which is the same as keto but i restrict a few things that i react to: nightshades, alliums etc. In 2012 I was on 200u insulin a day plus victoza, actos, and they were trying to come up with more. I was following my "endocrinologist's" instructions to a T and vigorous exercise for 1&1/2 hours daily and getting worse. I threw out all advice, quit eating carbs, started horsing down porterhouses and cut back my exercise to swimming a mile every day and doing yoga. I used garcinia cambogia from life extensions (experience with other brands was not good) and in a year lost over 100#, and weaned off of all diabetic meds. My need for supplements still runs high because I have many more environmental health issues I'm dealing with. I have been eating cinnamon on everything I cook, made my own acv for a while and I make chicken soup with whole lemons that I eat with the chicken. I'm waiting on results from a fasting insulin from a week ago. Does anyone know if cooked lemons retain their beneficial properties? Keep going everybody! This is tough, and it works, and for me, it's not as tough as being really sick all the time!
Thank you so much Dr Berg for all the work you do so we can be well informed. I started to follow your videos and get healthier in June last year. So far I have lost 28 pounds and I am a little stuck now but because I went off the program on the holidays 😬 which I regret now! But I’m coming back again since I have 30more pounds to lose
I done this whilst I was on holiday I travelled on 19th June I weighed 99kg I came back on 8th June and weighed 95kg, 1 meal a day at 4pm no sugar no carbs no snacks😊.
@@genacook9955 , congrats on your journey! Glad you’re feeling better. Did you add a sweetener to your drink? I started intermittent fasting yesterday & Im surprisingly not as hungry as I have been in the past. I’m eating 2 healthy meals a day & I feel more energetic!! Luv Dr. Berg’s channel.
@@maryluvsmusic9298 I did put a squirt of monk fruit sweetener. I’m trying keto and the inflammation in my joints has been so much better. (Bad knees) congratulations to you on your journey.
@@genacook9955, glad things are working out for you! Thanks for letting me know about the sweetener. I’m not familiar with that sweetener, I will do some research. I luv learning about new products. Thanks for your well wishes🙏🏾! Enjoy your day 😊!
I bought size 000 gelatin capsules and a dropper with bottle, to fill capsules with Apple Cider Vinegar. They will eventually become goopy/burst but not by the time you can close the capsule after filling it with ACV then swallowing it. I've found this is the easiest way to ingest ACV. Drinking it diluted to me still was risky considering it increasing acidity in the mouth. Edit: This is also great for Garlic and Ginger.
@@rumdo5617 That's damage to the soft lining of your throat from the acidity, this also happens with excessive alcohol drinking as well. This is exactly why I started taking it in pill form, my throat would burn after ingesting it diluted in water.
@@kylefer Ikr - and I was drinking with a straw to protect my teeth but I could not protect my throat from it so I stopped. But I’m hoping this works for me - I can’t see why it shouldn’t. 🙏
Omg thank you so much Doctor. I was wondering what was wrong with my blood sugar levels and now I have the answer. May you be blessed with a long healthy happy life ❤
I mix 8 oz of water with 2 tablespoons each, lemon juice and ACV, plus a teaspoon of ground cinnamon. That's all I drink for the whole day before 2 or 3 meals. Since February I've been on IF of 16/8 and some days as much as 20/4. Our funds are limited and can not afford the right meats so I do the Mediterranean diet with mostly veggies, olive oil etc... I'm definitely going to up my water amount in my drink and drink more of it. Looks like I'm using to much cinnamon. Thank you Dr Berg, I watch you every day and always learn something new. My salad dressing is you and your beautiful wife's recipe. God's Blessings to you 🙏
This is what I do. In the morning, I put a few slices of lemon to the jug of fresh water, drink it and sometimes eat those slices. By the bedtime, jug should be empty. Dr. Berg, many thanks for your invaluable advice!
Not enough words to express how much Dr. Berg is appreciated. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I had a terrible sore throat for over a week. I watched his video on how to get rid of it. Did exactly what he said, and it t-totally worked! Thank you again!
Watching Dr Berg's videos has taken the stress out of losing weight and more importantly my weight management. Previous before discovering healthy keto and IF I'd stress about breaking 'my diet' ,now if I go off course for a family event I simply fast for longer take apple cider drinks and get back on track!
Thanks Doc. I’m not on Keto and I do drink Braggs ACV, the one that has honey, lemon and ginger added inside. (I didn’t know it was diluted). Since it’s not strong, I mix about 4 tablespoons of it to 12 ounces of water and I also add cinnamon, my own raw honey and a pinch of cayenne pepper powder and shake it all very well in my water bottle. I just started it and hoping that it will help to lose weight and cleanse my liver.
Something to be cautious of is honey is practically pure sugar, there's an insulin response to this. It'll be reduced by the acv I'm sure but still something to keep in mind Ms. Dee
31 pounds dropped since Sept 8 to date - this program works. Somewhat tough first two weeks but if you stay diligent it works. If an overweight 64 can do it - you know the rest. Thank you Dr. Berg!
Thank you so much for all the information you share with us!!! I did well before my mom passed away and covid. I am a mess. I am starting today this very minute to start over on my Keto journey. Thank you again.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS VIDEO!!! I have been doing intermittent fasting for about 3 months, eating less and less carbs, llosing no weight and when I would fat for 18 hours, usually everyday, my blood sugar is elevated, still. Gluconeogenesis is the answer along with insulin resistance. I have been so frustrated and ready to quite so many times thinking nothing was changing. Sure enough things are changing, the body is trying to clean up the sugars, which takes a while, longer than I thought. Thank you for your wisdom. I will continue and will fight on!
Same here, can take quite a while to overcome a lifetime of bad diet. That is why some people prefer total carnivore eating. Shorter transition period and faster results!
You need to go almost no carb. Eat meats only and try that. Eggs and bacon, steaks, salmon. Eat nothing else unless it’s butter or a good oil. Then drink the lemon and cinnamon water. I prefer it in tea. Maybe green tea. You must be having some kinda of sugars. Maybe a small amount of carbs or even gummy vitamins? Your putting sugars in somewhere. If you don’t put them in you body will burn through what you have first before fat.
Thank you Dr. Berg! Your guidance has helped me lose thirty pounds in a three months. I still eat carbs, just not any processed carbohydrates. I mostly eat cruciferous vegetables. The lemon 🍋 water 💧 has helped a lot!
I implemented his technique. 2 meals per day . Just by eating twice a day for the first time I have been loosing weight slowly. I couldn't loose weight anymore for the past 5 years , I am in my 40s. Now that I know how insulin affects weigh loss I try to eat only two meals per day. Also I used his remedy to lower insulin ,is to drink ,Vinegar, Blend a whole lemon, and cinamon. some times I used all 3 or one per day. so for I lost 5 to 7 pounds and I feel so happy. is hard in the begining but is worthy.
This drink first, then protein and fibre, then carbs to finish and I am done for another 23 hours. 2kg a week falls off, and my blood tests make my GP's eyebrows bounce with surprise.
@ Roger Green Thank you for sharing this I have been trying to lose weight “I don’t know how I gained“ for over 10 years. Keto’s been only thing that’s helped me reduce due to IR! As Dr. Berg has explained in other videos some people dealing with a very high insulin resistance can only eat one meal a day, some every other day! I’d rather have quality of health back, enjoying a daily single meal.
@@evihofkens9530This morning I will be having steak, egg, cheese and avocado, followed by muesli and yoghurt, then fruit. Yesterday it was two sandwiches of ham, cheese and tomato on unbuttered wholemeal, followed by a banana and blueberry smoothie boosted with vanilla flavoured protein supplement and a handful of mixed seeds and nuts. Tomorrow, probably grilled salmon with kimchi as the main and then maybe a buckwheat pancake with maple syrup.
@@LAtheYoung61 Power on, and never lose sight of the fact that those daily hunger pangs are just your system wishing you would eat instead of making it harvest those fat reserves.
One thing that causes it is for sure Menopause. I had a flat lower tummy all my life until that came along. 😠 Now I struggIe to keep it as flat as I can
Since following YOU & your channel I’ve found out I’m insulin resistant because the 1st time I came across you was searching for reasons why I have so many skin tags appear over the last few years & your video on confirming it’s due to insulin resistance! That lead me down the ketogenic path & learning so very MUCH about how our bodies work & what’s best for them to reverse issues we develop NATURALLY! 🫶& for FREE 🫶 Via YOU 🫶 You must know how appreciated you are by your many subscribers 🫶 & how rare it is when doctors gps aren’t giving us this PRICELESS Information! I was frightened by my gp alarming me about high platelets 2yrs ago without even explaining what that was & when I googled it it had me believing I had blood 🩸 cancer 😓 Truly Grateful there’s people on this planet out there to help US Not harm US A billion Thanks Dr Berg 🫶
Hi Dr. Berg, I would like to personally thank you for all of the information you kindly share with us. I went to my GP (England) and had a blood test. She said my liver function was fine but my belly is so big, I look 4 months pregnant! When I spoke to her about insulin resistance, she just said this is not possible because my liver function is healthy and my blood sugar is good but this is based on a fasting blood test result. If this is the case about my liver, why am I so over weight? I struggled to lose weight on my belly for a long time and since following your advice and starting intermittent fasting (week three now), ACV in water before a meal, I have noticed a difference for sure. This week I have extended my fast by two hours and my God, it has helped so much! I don't understand why UK Doctors are not shedding light on the benefits of ACV and fasting, if they told me this months ago (after constant appointments about my belly), I would be in a much better position today. But thanks to you, I am already feeling better. So, thank you for providing us with the education and information that GP's fail to provide! I will drinking this every day before my evening meal as of today!
The gallon jugs of Braggs AC Ving are not diluted. The ving in those jugs is rich and flavorful. It's their small, 16oz glass bottles, along with their larger glass bottles, that are diluted quite a bit.
The cinnamon you are showing here is not actually cinnamon it's Cassia which is a lower variety of cinnamon. Real cinnamon is Ceylon cinnamon which are handmade and has layered filling when cut across. Please do a search on google and find out what is real cinnamon and the difference between real cinnamon and cassia. Cassia does not have the health benefits you claim to have.
Are you sure that Braggs adds water? I'm not so sure they do. Just because it lists water on the label doesn't mean they add it. When a cow is milked we all know that most of that milk is water, so technically it wouldn't be far fetched to list water as an ingredient in milk when breaking down the many parts of what it's made up of. Apple cider before it is turned into vinegar is mostly water.
🍏Bragg's is diluted with water to obtain 5% acidity ($6.84 for 32 oz). 🍎Fairchild is 6.3% acidity ($11 for 32oz- Amazon- sold in pair). You can make your own using a few apples 🍎🍏 or apple scraps from applesauce making 😉
@ Nan's Global Kitchen I live in The Bay Area and the only store I located it was in San Francisco! Finally found it on Amazon for the same price! 😉 💯 😉

Dr. Berg, thanks much. Another great video - can you drink including the cinnamon and stay in a fasted state ? Currently drinking 30 oz H2O + 2 Tbsp ACV + 4 Tbsp Lemon Juice while fasting.
Dr. Berg, What does this drink do to our teeth? Should we be drinking through a straw so the acid doesn’t affect our teeth over time? Great work! Thank you so much for your devotion to humanity!
Another tip for people struggling to drink ACV - it tastes great when mixed with lemon balm tea, which is coincidentally another recommendation I picked up from Dr Berg's videos. Thanks again for all the great info and guidance!
Its been a week I am drinking this drink and all my pimples are gone. It's a very good start for me. Another Good news for me is here in INDIA I got Apple cider vinegar infused with cinnamon and fenugreek all 100% organic (undiluted, unpasteurized , unfiltered).
I had been doing Intermittent fasting for a few months and was contentedly losing some excess fat. But this drink is a game changer. The fat just went. From 224 pounds now at 173. Thanks doc.
Love your videos. The first time I remember hearing the term Keto was in Jan 2020 when I stumbled upon your video about right shoulder and neck pain might be related to gut health. That was the beginning of my keto journey. Very soon my nagging pain soon went away. I wasn't even thinking about the weight loss at that point, but soon happily noticed that change. Thanks Doc!
I just bought some organic lemons yesterday. I washed one well and then threw it in my blender whole, blending it with 20 oz water and then added 2 T ACV and some stevia. Yum!
Dear Dr Eric, I've been using apple cider vinegar for a long time now. It's an elixir for fat burning, but at the age of 49 I've developed acid reflux and my doctor forbade me to use apple cider vinegar. I've now developed belly fat and a fatty liver. How to cope with acid reflux while using apple cider vinegar?
Though I'm not diabetic, yet I'm glad that I hear this info after buying ceylon cinnamon, which said to have even more health benefits than cassia cinnamon, Thanks for the info Dr Berg 🌸
I'm not fussy, just using any old cinnamon I can get my hands on. I put it in my morning smoothie, which has evolved to include, not only berries and kale, but may also contain sprouts, yeast flakes, even Brazil nuts.😜
@@jennalud4748 we're not so (conservative) about adding other healthy spices to our tea in the Middle East, yet me and my husband don't like our tea Corrupted with too much cinnamon.
Ok Dr. Im starting my healthy lifestyle to feel better, lose weight and most importantly, become healthier. Im watching your videos and hoping to drop 120 lbs!! Wish me luch😊
Hey, Dr. Berg, came across your video thanks to my Dad to learn more about Keto. Just lost 14lbs despite not being on Keto, but I'm hoping to continually eat and exercise healthily. Appreciate your info on Insulin and everything! ^^
Good morning Doc thank you once again for the informative video 💜 Gonna have to try this, Do u have any suggestions for Chronic pancreatitis?? And how to slow the progression down? Thanks in advance 🙏🏽
I'm going to start doing this. I was doing something like this before but it was dehydrating me. I believe the electrolyte powder will make it a game changer for me. Twice a day, before breakfast and before dinner. Thank you Dr. Berg!
@@markdolan9459 Hello, the first day went well but last night I started having spasms in my foot from dehydration. I think it was because I didn't eat properly. So I am still figuring things out. I like the taste of the drink with the electrolyte powder. So I'm going to keep at it. Thanks for asking.
Excellent info! I am on Keto (Omad) and started using lemon juice along with apple cider vinegar in my electrolyte drink because it is way too sweetened (for me) with Stevia and I'd always dread drinking it. I add one scoop of powdered electrolytes, the juice of 1 lemon and 1 T of Fairchild's vinegar to a 20 oz Swig water bottle and top that off with water. With those additions, the drink is actually something I look forward to. It tastes great and I cant even detect the vinegar. My water bottle has a pop-up tab and I can drink without it touching my teeth, protecting them from the acid. I advise to otherwise use a straw or the enamel might be compromised over time. I usually drink this concoction twice per day. One tip I can share is that if you freeze your lemons, (rock hard) and then thaw them at room temperature, you can get a whole lot more juice out of them. Freezing will burst the tiny juice sacks in the lemons. I used to put them straight in the microwave, turning every 20 seconds until thawed,...but I stopped doing that because I figured the heat might destroy some of the vitamin C. Freezing is also a great way to buy lemons in bulk (I buy at Costco) and you won't waste any before you can eat them all. Good health to all!
Can believe people are still proclaiming you can target specific regions for fat loss. You dont get to choose where the fat is put on and you dont get to choose where it comes off of.
What kind of cinnamon is recommended? Should I buy the cinnamon sticks and grind or shred? Or would powdered work? Sorry if this is a silly question, but I don't know much about this. Thank you.
Cinnamon (Ceylon) That would be cinnamon from Sri Lanka (Asia) or Mozambique (Africa). Anyway it should be the bark that curls up. There is cassia, that is called cinnamon also. They are flat pieces of bark. Usually from Indonesia, Vietnam or China. I suggest you look for the curled up cinnamon.
Hey Dr. Berg! Talking about cinnamon brought up a question for me. Would adding a little bit of cinnamon to black coffee help with intermittent fasting? I recall you saying drinking black coffee is the best coffee option, but, would adding a pinch of cinnamon add anything to the process of what black coffee does?
Dr Berg… so this combination of ACV lemon and cinnamon is made once a day and split into three glasses and you drink leftovers later or you drink the whole mixture at once and make the drink three time a day
OFF TOPIC. I just scrolled through all the videos on this channel but I didn’t find a topic I was looking for. Is anyone aware of a video about getting rid of the excess skin and flab after pregnancy?
Dr. Berg. The recipe you provided to drink (16oz of water+2 tbsp. of vinegar + pinch of cinnamon), Is that total to consume during the 3 times before meals, or you need to consume that quantity at before each meal (ie.: 48 oz per day)? Thanks
I tried the lemon juicing the good Doctor recommended. I used two tablespoons of ACV, one whole lemon, a blast of cinnamon, a cup and a half of ice, and enough water to make it blend into a smoothie. I could have drank it as is, but figured a bit of sweetness would help, so added a couple of packets of stevia sweetener. It makes a nice afternoon snack between my mid-day meal and dinner while doing intermittent fasting.
