Lose Arm Fat Fast: Tips from Dr. Berg

Dr. Berg talks about the reasons people have flabby arms and how to burn arm fat. The main reason that people tend to have fat arms is the loss of collagen, which happens over a period of time as a person grows older. Out of all the hormones, the growth hormone tends to be the single most critical factor that is responsible for losing arm fat. In adults, the growth hormone controls factors such as fat burning, tightening muscles, protein synthesis, energy. The major causes of flabby arms are lower levels of growth hormone and high cortisol levels.

In the second part of this video, Dr. Berg talks about how to get rid of flabby arms. To lose arm fat and avoid loose skin one must lower cortisol levels and raise the growth hormone. Lower cortisol levels can be achieved by low-intensity exercises (walking), sleeping, avoid stress, potassium foods, avoid sugar. Higher growth hormone can be achieved by high-intensity exercises, sleeping, proteins, avoid sugar.

Loose skin normally stems from a loss of collagen, which occurs when the adrenal glands become stress. This is common during and after menopause, primarily because the adrenal glands act as a backup gland for the ovaries. The buffer for cortisol is GH (Growth Hormone) and as GH drops, there is nothing left to counter the bad effects of cortisol.

LOWER CORTISOL
1. Low-intensity exercise
2. Increase sleep
3. Support adrenal gland
4. Avoid stress
5. Increase potassium
6. Increase B vitamins
7. Avoid sugar

RAISE GROWTH HORMONE
1. High-intensity exercise
2. Increase sleep
3. Increase some protein (not more than 6 ounces per meal)
4. Intermittent fasting - only 3 meals per day - no snacks
5. Decrease Cortisol and insulin
6. Support the liver

I am 75 years old, walk 1 to 1-1/2 hours daily with my dog, follow your chart, and weight lift daily, 8 lbs, 12 reps of 6 arm exercises. My arms are muscular and so are my legs. I need to sleep more at night, but I do take a short nap every day. I also recommend doing 25 to 30 female pushups daily. I love your videos.

Bad relationships cause stress...friends too.

[mitzkitty]

I got rid of the biggest stress I had in my life! My ex husband 😂😂😂
My stress disappeared instantly after he was gone 😱
A bad relationships can literally kill you 😂

[MyKeturah]

I'm a grown woman and Dr Berg just explained menopause to me. 🥺 I always heard my elders talk about symptoms, but nobody ever sat me down and explained it like this. Nope, never thought to look into it before now. Thank you!

[bitty_bytes]

Yes, I have friends who do high intensity and are not thin. Just through walking people lose more, honestly. Outside, is better if people can. I love the suggestions. It really works.

[JustSmileAndWave]

I love how simple your videos are. They're not too long, just straight to the point.

[NathanSeneca]

I like this guy . . sounds sincere, like he really really cares about our health.

[mzcyberbat]

The stress thing really makes a difference. Walks can reduce this and can be calming.

[sandrasatterfield]

[ConnieWardOfficial]

Do you even realize how amazing you are?!? Your videos are truly life changing. I have spent the past two years going to Dr after Dr. Specialists, ER visits, and a Naturopathic Dr. Spent thousands of dollars and you have helped me more than ANY of them. I'm truly grateful for you. Thank you 🙏🏾

This man is a Godsend. Even a five year old can understand and apply the invaluable information he provides. May The Lord bless him and keep him, guard and protect him.

[joanphilbin]

I am 89 and will be 90 in a few months. I've been a vegetarian since 1963, and never smoked, or imbibed etoh. I am alert, and love life. My only problem's are related to a family history of cardiac problems, etc. I like to eat by following this routine: eat breakfast like a king; lunch like a prince, and supper like a pauper. It is great for those who wish to lose weight, if they are overweight. God bless.

It's rare to have a doctor treat women like they have a brain and can use it once they understand something! Instead of a prescription pad, you whipped out a white board and concrete details on ACTIONS that will help. Thanks Doc! You're a life saver.
