How to Lose Belly Fat as a Vegan – Dr. Berg

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).

“If we add exercise that would be cool”

[chezydan]

Loved the move when he turned around and said "pancakes" :D

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.

"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.

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.

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!

The world of nutrition of is so confusing.

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 🇬🇾)

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.

This video is 4 years old. He has now said berries are ok but don't exceed 1 cup a day.

[boparks]

Oh wow, I can't believe lentils are foods to avoid! Wow!

[trishgoins]

I'm interested in "The Starch Solution" and what your thoughts are

[BrandonEsparza]

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 YouTube 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.

[laurawashere]

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

[fabfourfever]

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. 😉

Thank you Dr. Berg! This was very helpful! I look forward to applying this guide/wisdom to my vegan/plant-based lifestyle.
