Did you know that your waist circumference can predict your risk of severe health conditions more than your actual weight?

In this video, I’m going to tell you why your waist circumference is more important than your weight. A woman’s waist should be less than 35 inches, and a man’s should be less than 40 inches. Every inch increases the risk of premature death. Visceral fat is fat that surrounds the organs and has several negative health consequences, including the following: •Sends signals to increase inflammation in the body •Contributes to insulin resistance •Hard to detect •2x-3x greater risk for heart disease •Increases risk of cancer, especially of the breast and colon Visceral fat is not the same as subcutaneous fat. Visceral fat is hormonal fat caused by cortisol or insulin. Consuming carbohydrates and frequent eating can spike insulin, leading to visceral fat. After menopause, women often lose their waistline due to a shift in hormones. Estrogen and progesterone decrease while cortisol increases. This also contributes to a loss of muscle mass. Body mass index (BMI) is not the best indicator of your overall health because it doesn’t reflect whether a person has significant muscle mass or fat. Some belly fat looks like visceral fat but is actually related to cirrhosis of the liver.

Find out why you can’t sleep and the best tips to sleep better. Videos on Insulin Resistance: ▶️ https://youtu.be/cUXSPIi5mE0 ▶️ https://youtu.be/5xrQzIxpp1k Video on Methylene Blue: ▶️ https://youtu.be/dDUZ0ODBfJs 0:00 Introduction: How to improve your sleep 0:42 Sleep explained 1:42 Tips to sleep better 10:05 Learn more about sleep! Today we’re going to talk about three things you can do to fall asleep fast and sleep better through the night. While some people have too much energy to fall asleep, others are actually too tired to fall asleep. It takes a healthy amount of energy in your energy factories, your mitochondria, to sleep well. The organs that have the most mitochondria are your heart and brain. This means that both of these organs need a lot of oxygen to function properly. Thankfully, there are several things you can do to increase oxygen into the mitochondria in the brain to help you fall asleep fast and have a good night’s sleep. There is also, essentially, a clock in your brain that tells you when to sleep and when to wake up—we need to get this clock to work better. How to sleep better at night: • Exercise • Consume vitamin B1 before bed • Sleep with the window open • Put plants in your room • Consume CoQ10 • Take methylene blue • Use dim lights after sunset • Replace certain lights in your house with incandescent lights • Avoid blue light before bed • Use red lights • Use the light from a fireplace if possible • Use blue blockers • Don’t consume any food 5 hours before bed • Take vitamin D3 while traveling • Go to bed before midnight (around 10 pm works for many people) Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio: Dr. Berg, age 57, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.

Is depression really a chemical imbalance? Learn more about what causes depression and how to overcome depression naturally.

There is no evidence that depression is a chemical imbalance in the brain involving serotonin. It has been found that SSRIs can temporarily help increase serotonin in the brain. However, drug trials have shown that these anti-depressants were almost indistinguishable from the placebo in treating depression. SSRIs come with a lot of side effects, including serious side effects involving the sex organs. Psychiatric drugs also come with a black box warning, meaning there is a high risk of suicidal thoughts and behaviors. Does depression cause body problems, or do body problems cause depression? I think it could be both—but we’re going to focus on the body problems and deficiencies that could cause depression. Potential causes of depression: 1. Insomnia 2. Chronic fatigue 3. Stress 4. Nutritional deficiencies (vitamin D, vitamin B12, vitamin B1, magnesium, DHA) 5.

The best herb for liver disease might be growing in your backyard! DATA: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3586829 0:00 Introduction: The best herb for liver disease  0:10 Understanding liver disease  2:30 Milk thistle for liver disease  2:50 Benefits of milk thistle for the liver 5:30 Learn more about the best foods for a fatty liver! In my opinion, the best herb for liver disease is milk thistle. When talking about liver disease, we’re really talking about three things: 1. Fatty liver (alcoholic and nonalcoholic)  2. Cirrhosis (scar tissue) 3. Hepatitis (inflamed liver) One of the top potential causes of a fatty liver is insulin resistance. You can develop insulin resistance from being on a high-carb diet or from consuming too much sugar. Late end-stage liver disease is irreversible. There is a point of no return. There are not many symptoms of liver damage until it becomes very advanced. A large belly is a good indicator of a fatty liver. When the liver becomes fatty, the fat spills over into spaces in and around your other organs. Regardless of which liver problem you have, milk thistle is a fantastic natural remedy to support the liver. Potential benefits of milk thistle for the liver:  • It can help protect against poisons  • It may help reduce fat on the liver  • It can support liver cell regeneration  • It can decrease liver enzymes  • It can increase SOD and glutathione (important antioxidants) • It can help lower insulin and improve insulin resistance  • It may help reduce inflammation Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio: Dr. Berg, age 57, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.
