Let’s talk about the #1 way to balance your hormones: fasting. 

There are various methods of fasting. I think the most beneficial methods of fasting are intermittent fasting and prolonged fasting. 

Fasting especially targets the hormone insulin—reducing insulin and improving insulin sensitivity. Reducing insulin has incredible benefits for your health. 

Reducing insulin can potentially help:
• Decrease inflammation
• Improve diabetes
• Improve insulin resistance 
• Decrease fat in the liver 
• Decrease your risk for obesity 
• Improve metabolic syndrome 
• Support the autonomic nervous system 

Fasting is fantastic for many other hormones as well, including:
1. Leptin
2. Thyroid stimulating hormone
3. Androgens 
4. Estrogen 
5. Testosterone 
6. Cortisol 
7. Growth hormone 
8. Prolactin 

Fasting can help support your circadian rhythms. By supporting your circadian rhythms, you’re also supporting and helping to balance certain hormones. Fasting also helps support your gut microbiome, which again may help improve your hormones.

I’m 51 and have been doing the 16/8 fasting for 8 months and I’ve lost 68 lbs so far. I still need to lose about 15 or 20 more but I know I can do it with this. Fasting along with cutting out sugar and doing low carbs is the only thing that has ever worked for me.

In Hinduism we used to do "Ekadasi vrat" each month. It is a 24 hours fasting. Means our ancestors were way ahead of time. What today's scientists explore today is already written on our ancient holy books.

[Granztolch]

I didn't eat any foods for about 4 days. Only drinking water for single a day. I've been still fine.

[maryamkhan]

I have hormonal problem. I started intermittent fasting 10:00 -2:00pm eating window and 20 hour fasting window a week ago and I lost 4 kgs. Thanks Dr Berg

[trusound]

I can attest to this. Fasting was a huge blessing for me. I had so much more energy and so much less brain fog. I found my appetite to be under better control as well.

[christosgeorgiafentis]

I think by this point I am convinced that fasting is literally the cure for everything.

[billclinton]

Lost 50 pounds in 6 months. Dr. Berg transformed me in to a machine .(low carb, high fat, moderate protein 18:6). Thank you Dr. Berg.

[adabsra]

[shaunsmith]

Dr. Berg, I was Type 2 diabetic with A1C of 6.7. In 8 months with your advice on keto/if down to 5.7. No longer on Metformin and no longer needing a waiver to extend my Deployment in Kuwait for another 9 months. You have changed my life.

Coming from a family of big eaters, fasting has been very hard. Took me a year to make it a disciplined life routine in my life rather than a healthy burden. Body has never felt so good before

[HaohmaruHL]

As someone who absolutely hates cooking it was incredibly easy to adapt to intermittent fasting. You mean I save time and money by being out of the kitchen AND reap health benefits? Count me in!
I just wish I wasn't so prone to stress and didn't rely on sugar as my streets relief so much.

THERE IS A SAYING IN MUSLIMS…………EAT TO LIVE BUT FAST TO LIVE LONG AND BE HEALTHY………………THIS HAS NOW BEEN MADE PLAIN BY YOU SIR…………THANK YOU…

[virginiekimball]

Thank you Dr Berg for using the white board again! I can follow and understand so much better as you point what you’re saying! Yey. I’m intrigued by this topic. Exactly what I needed to help with my getting healthier. Such a good reminder to stick to IF ketogenic regimen! I was up 3 am bc I snacked 2 hrs after OMAD yesterday ( handful of organic macadamias very very expensive and damaging) NO SNACKING! Well I did and I’m paying for it this morning, gained 2 lbs too. Balancing hormones is so misunderstood, and your research 🧐 is so appreciated to better our bodies… now got to put it in practice. Love the solutions you present after the brief whys and how’s….that’s what makes your videos so worthwhile! 🤩thank you for encouraging us to do IF and understanding androgens, circadian…..that was significant in helping me! Thank you for the way you approached each subject section….so that we can easily follow through

Dr Berg, you truly are the best on public health and your authenticity shows through your educational videos. Transforming lives around the world and also empowering us to question the status quo. Nobel peace prize should go to genuine warm hearted people like you. Please never stop and looking forward to your future content. 🙏🏽
