episode The Most Massive Weight Loss LIE in History cover

Beskrivelse

This is the biggest lie about weight loss and dieting, and it’s been going on for decades! Find out the truth about weight loss and why you may want to ditch the calorie counting for good. Don’t fall for diet lies! Watch this episode next: Reset Your Body in 5 Days (With Zero Food) [https://open.spotify.com/episode/4oKZ046rIAE3zwxDb06ZaO] 0:00 Introduction: The biggest weight loss lie 0:15 The calorie-deficit weight loss myth 0:39 Weight loss myths debunked 1:58 More weight loss facts 3:18 Why diets don’t work 4:24 Debunking diet lies about sugar 5:15 How to lose weight The weight loss industry has convinced the public that losing weight is just a matter of eating fewer calories than you're burning. There is no one bad food, and you can consume “everything in moderation”. These diet lies will not work! All calories are not the same! Let’s look at the hormone insulin, which tells calories where to go. If insulin is high, your carbohydrates will be stored as fat. If it’s low, those calories will be burned. All it takes is a small amount of carbohydrates to raise insulin and prevent your body from burning fat. Cortisol, the stress hormone, can indirectly raise your insulin. It interferes with sleep, when most of your fat burning occurs. Fiber can help buffer a blood sugar spike. Orange juice without the fiber will increase your blood sugar significantly more than whole oranges with fiber. Highly refined industrial starch is classified as a complex carbohydrate. It raises blood sugar significantly more than starch from a whole food source, such as a potato. Different types of fat affect your health in dramatically different ways. Cod liver oil is a potent source of healthy omega-3 fat, while if you were to consume the same amount of Crisco fat, the health effects would be completely opposite. You will not lose weight if your calories don’t satisfy you. Unsustainable diets leave you feeling hungry all the time. The more nutrient-dense a food is, the more satisfying it will be. The source of the calories matters! All of your cells can metabolize glucose, but only the liver can metabolize fructose. Synthetic sugars like high fructose corn syrup can overload your liver and significantly differ from natural sugar sources like honey. If you’re struggling to lose weight, realizing that calorie counting doesn’t work is essential. Healthy Keto® and intermittent fasting can help you lose weight sustainably! --- Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices [https://megaphone.fm/adchoices]

Start consuming the best foods for your eyes—they're easy to include in your diet! DATA: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/8300367/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3740325/ Video on Grass-Fed Beef Study: ▶️ https://youtu.be/fSgmqsl3Twk 0:00 Introduction: How to support your eyes 0:10 Eye health explained 2:04 The most important nutrient for the eyes 3:35 Carotenoids for the eyes 4:05 What to eat for healthy eyes 6:19 Learn more about the best ways to support the eyes! Today I want to cover the best foods for the eyes. Your eyes are highly complex, and it's important to support them to help avoid vision problems and other issues. The most important nutrient for the eyes is DHA, which is an omega-3 fatty acid. DHA has many important functions and protects against macular degeneration and inflammation. It also inhibits the formation of extra blood vessels in the eyes that could affect vision. DHA is destroyed by blue light, UV light, and omega-6 fatty acids. Carotenoids are also very protective for the eyes, specifically lutein, zeaxanthin, and meso-zeaxanthin. The best foods to support the eyes: • Oily cold-water fish (bluefin tuna, salmon, herring, cod liver, cod liver oil, oysters, and sardines) • Grass-fed beef • Pasture-raised, organic egg yolks • Walnuts • Chia seeds • Flax seeds • Dark leafy green vegetables • Shrimp It's also crucial to avoid omega-6 fatty acids and sugar to support healthy eyes.

The way we were taught how to stretch is wrong. Discover the best way to stretch stiff muscles. DATA: https://www.amazon.com/Whartons-Stretch-Book-Breakthrough-Active-Isolated-ebook/dp/B07T51QSB5 ▶️ https://youtu.be/R1gk_tHVxn4 0:00 Introduction: What to do for stiff muscles 0:10 The worst way to stretch 0:50 Understanding tight muscles and stretching 2:00 The correct way to stretch 5:10 Learn more about exercise! Let’s talk about how to relieve muscle stiffness and increase your range of motion. Many of us have been taught to stretch by holding a position for 30 to 60 seconds—this is called static stretching. But this is the worst way to stretch your muscles. Tight muscles are weaker and are more susceptible to injury and inflammation. When you stretch incorrectly, you can easily strain or pull a muscle. Motion is all about the coordination of contraction and relaxation of the muscles. One of the best ways to stretch is a method from a book called The Whartons’ Complete Strength Book, and it’s called Active Isolated Flexibility. How to stretch correctly (using Active Isolated Flexibility): 1. Identify the muscle you want to stretch 2. Contract or tighten the opposite muscle as you stretch 3. Stretch to a comfortable limit and hold for two seconds and then relax Repeat this method of stretching eight to ten times per muscle. This would be a great warm-up before you exercise. You may also want to consider a version of this as part of the rehab process for a less severe injury.

Many people deal with pain and soreness behind their eyes. Today we’re going to talk about what’s really behind certain eye problems like eye soreness, sensitivity to light, eye strain, or watery eyes. In many cases, these problems with the eyes are caused by the hypersensitivity of a nerve behind the eyes. But that’s only the tip of the iceberg. If you’ve had chicken pox, you have a higher risk of getting shingles later in life. But, before you get shingles, your body may give you certain warning signs of shingles. One of these warning signs is pain behind the eyes and other eye problems. This is because the dormant virus hides in the sensory nerves and waits for the perfect opportunity to come out. The top triggers of shingles: 1. Cold weather 2. Weather changes (pressure) 3. Stress 4. Vitamin D deficiency 5. Zinc deficiency It’s key to focus on prevention and keeping your immune system strong by doing certain things, including: • Getting plenty of sleep • Exercising regularly • Lowering your stress • Consuming a healthy diet (Healthy Keto®) Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio: Dr. Berg, age 57, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.
