This man has literally saved my life, I owe him a great big thank you. Zero carbs, zero sugars is the only way for me to be pain free, I lost 5 stones and kicked the wheelchair out of my life.

I weighed 415 and stopped weighing myself. I am sure I weighed more than that. I was unable to walk. I had tried all sorts of pills and diets. I turned to keto because my mom started it and lost a few pounds. I weigh 217 now. I've stopped drinking soda and all the ingredients for hidden sugar. I love how I feel now. And I am still going. I still have health problems. I can walk now and have gone on all sorts of adventures.

My wife and I started Keto last September. We said we would do it a month. It is now July and we don't regret it at all. I no longer on insulin going from 10.2 A1C to 5.4 A1C. I've lost 70 lbs 243 to 173. Blood pressure from 160s to 110. My wife gone from 160 to 119 lbs. I really feel healthy for the first time in 15 years.

A few MD’s and others have expressed contempt for Dr. Berg because he is a chiropractor and not a MD, but I listen to him for information on nutrition and metabolic health. He views are aligned with respected health professionals like Dr. Jason Fung, Dr. Ken Berry and Dr. Eric Westman. Dr. Berg is also easy to watch and listen to. Those who trash him are prejudiced and/or jealous of his success.

His story about eating 45 eggs a day was really 4 to 5 reminded me of a time when I got back from deployment and walked into the house and wondered what the burning smell was. It was my wife cooking her grandmothers recipe for spaghetti sauce. She cooked it for 68 hours. Was supposed to be 6 to 8 hours.

Never in my life did I ever imagine I could lose the weight. Here I am without cravings! I am never hungry and feeling like I've been let out of jail and never going back. Thank you

I'm a 69yo woman and I've been on Keto for a couple of years. Mainly for being healthy. I don't strictly follow this diet anymore but I still do not eat processed sugars. After being on this diet, I do not have any more migraines and haven't had a cold or flu either.

[ameliaashton-brooke]

I am in UK and most people here are not even aware of keto or insulin resistance. I discovered it 10 months ago and lost 44 kilos. It works!

Hi, I am a Chiropractor and Clinical Nutritionist who has practiced for over 30 years. I love to watch and evaluate videos on nutrition. Many are full of major physiological inaccuracies and crazy popular culture myths. Unfortunately, most tend to push products that are at best sub-par. That being said, I have to say that Dr. Berg did a wonderful job in this video. I enjoyed it thoroughly and was even reminded of some basic truths. Great job Doc!

I lost 72 kg with Keto and everybody doesnt recognize me today, I feel love for myself and thanks God that finally I met keto

I am a 64 year old woman who, after only five months is experiencing the benefits of fasting and following a low carbohydrate and 'practical keto' eating plan. The first and most important action I took is intermittent fasting-- 16+ hours in a 24 hour period (basically no breakfast). It helps control my hunger in a way I thought would never be possible.
I thought that I would never succeed in fasting because of the constant hunger and low energy. I obviously had to my change my whole diet and take out the empty carbohydrates, especially the bread that I was so addicted to. No matter how healthy the bread is, it is still just a carbohydrate which is never going to satisfy your body's needs or hunger cravings; plus, it is going to spike the insulin levels creating all the health problems described above. I had that mid-belly, menopausal belly fat which is mainly gone in just a few months.
It also helped to initially get a glucometer to test my blood sugar levels after fasting as well as after eating. I don't test myself too much now, because if I follow the plan of healthy diet, I stay on track.
This is not a picnic but it is really working, and now I foresee myself not being 'overly hindered' by bad health in old age. I would just encourage women to start as young as possible. If I can make all these changes at my age, it makes me realize how much stress I would have saved my body by starting younger. I encourage anyone to think of preserving your health in your youth and preventing irreversible damage to your body in your old age.

I was one of those patients that could not lose weight . I didn’t cheat, stuck to all my many diets . Worked out hard and I’m menopausal. Fasting and keto is the only thing that finally worked .

[sbfm]

I listen to Berg, and learn as well. I am a doctor and MD.

[davidmunro]

I have been 10 months on keto. When my family see me they do a double take. My hands feet and brain are being repaired first. Thanks man.
