All you need to do is focus on lowering your carbs, right? Wrong. Find out how to avoid this huge mistake when counting carbs on keto. Healthy Ketogenic Diet Basics Step 1: Intermittent Fasting and Fat Burning ▶️https://youtu.be/vMZfyEy_jpI Healthy Ketogenic Diet Basics Step 2: WHAT TO EAT ▶️ https://youtu.be/mBqpaAKtnXE 0:00 Introduction: One of the biggest keto mistakes 0:25 Counting carbs on keto 0:52 Protein and insulin 1:32 Foods that don’t trigger insulin 1:55 The insulin index explained 9:12 Check out this video on the glycemic index and glycemic load! Let’s talk about the biggest mistake you can make when counting carbs on keto. Understanding this crucial information will help you achieve better results on the keto plan. On the keto diet, you reduce your carbs to below 50 grams. We do this because carbs increase insulin, and insulin blocks ketosis. If you’re not in ketosis, you’re not doing the ketogenic diet correctly. But carbs aren't the only factor to consider. You need to remember that protein can also increase insulin, especially if you have insulin resistance, prediabetes, or diabetes. It doesn’t affect insulin as much as carbohydrates, but it can still raise your insulin. Only two foods don’t trigger insulin: fat and fiber. When combined with other foods, fat and fiber can also help buffer the effect of insulin. A blood sugar level between 70 and 80 is ideal. If your blood sugar is too low or too high, you’re going to experience a range of symptoms and potential health problems. But, if your blood sugar level is perfect, you’re going to feel fantastic. The insulin index is the scale of foods that trigger insulin. Understanding the insulin index is crucial—it’s one of the most important things to focus on when trying to achieve health. The lower the food is on the index, the better it is. Stick to consuming foods lower on the insulin index for more success on keto—don't only focus on counting carbs.

Many people have been using berberine for weight loss and are seeing amazing results! Find out why berberine is referred to as “nature’s Ozempic!" 0:00 Introduction: Is berberine a natural Ozempic? 1:13 What is berberine? 1:24 The benefits of berberine 1:35 Berberine vs. Metformin 1:56 How does berberine work for weight loss? 4:00 Berberine dosage and side effects Today, we’re going to talk about berberine. People all over social media are calling berberine a natural Ozempic, but if you do a quick Google search, you may have doubts. There are several claims that berberine can give you diarrhea, gas, constipation, and stomachaches, and can even be fatal in large amounts. There are also claims that berberine can’t work as a substitute for Ozempic because there isn’t enough research. Berberine is a phytochemical found in various plants that has numerous health benefits, especially for blood sugar. It has even been compared to Metformin, a popular drug used to treat type 2 diabetes. The potential health benefits of berberine: • Helps with insulin resistance • Helps lower blood sugar • Helps to activate vitamin D • Supports longevity • Has antiarrhythmic properties • Helps decrease the risk of a fatty liver •Has neuroprotective properties • Helps make chemotherapy/radiation more efficient • Reduces gluconeogenesis Many health problems are related to problems with the mitochondria. Berberine increases the number of mitochondria (mitochondrial biogenesis), helps clean up damaged mitochondria, and makes mitochondria more efficient. Berberine, in small amounts, has very few, if any, side effects! Combined with keto, intermittent fasting, and exercise, you could experience significant results when taking berberine.
