Let's talk about the real reason why you lost your butt and gained a belly: high cortisol. Excessive cortisol can break down the quadriceps and the gluteus maximus. Cortisol is a stress hormone and a survival hormone. It tends to keep your sugar levels available for quick energy. It can also rob amino acids from the quadriceps and the gluteus maximus to convert to glucose. The sugar is then converted to fat with the help of insulin. During this process, you can develop muscle atrophy. Muscle atrophy can look very similar to cellulite, but it's really a loss of muscle fiber. Top causes of high cortisol: • Prednisone • Menopause • High stress • A tumor • Birth control pills • Sarcopenia • Inactivity • Low back pain What you can do: 1. Talk to your doctor about a natural alternative to prednisone (adaptogens and vitamin D) 2. Reduce your stress (do physical work or exercise and avoid overtraining) 3. Do the keto diet and intermittent fasting 4. Get plenty of key nutrients (potassium, magnesium, and vitamin B1) 5. Get plenty of sleep 6. Limit things that stimulate the adrenals and limit your exposure to EMF Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio: Dr. Berg, age 57, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.

It takes a combination of foods, not just one, to create a healthy body. Today, we’re going to talk about an additional food you should add to your daily salads: carrots. We’ve talked before about why you can have carrots on keto but haven’t gone in-depth on the health benefits of carrots. One medium carrot has 4.3 net carbs and a low glycemic load, so having one carrot daily won’t push you out of ketosis. Health benefits of carrots: 1. The fiber in carrots may help detox and balance estrogen 2. They lessen the activation of procarcinogens 3. They contain antioxidants 4. They’re antiangiogenic 5. They have anticlotting properties 6. They have properties that can help fight mycoplasma 7. They may help reduce intestinal inflammation 8. They’re antitumor 9. They’re anticancer I suggest eating at least one medium organic carrot every day to help boost your health.

#1 Deficiency Behind BAD EYESIGHT

By the age of 45, most people need glasses! They're known as corrective lenses, but they don’t actually improve eyesight. Is it possible to improve eyesight naturally? Find out how to improve eyesight and eye health in this video. Watch this episode next: Reset Your Body in 5 Days (With Zero Food) [https://open.spotify.com/episode/4oKZ046rIAE3zwxDb06ZaO] 0:00 Introduction: How to improve eyesight naturally 0:38 Contrast sensitivity loss 2:05 Carotenoids 2:55 Light to improve eyesight 3:19 How to improve eyesight 3:52 The sun and eye health 4:24 Zeaxanthin and lutein for eyes 5:25 Avoid these foods for healthy eyes 5:43 The best diet for eyesight improvement 6:19 Important vitamins for the eyes DATA: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science... Vitamin D3 Highdosage The Alternative to the Previous Therapy of Glaucoma: https://www.amazon.com/Vitamin-Highdo... Did you know that the more you wear your glasses, the stronger prescription you’ll need? Contrast sensitivity loss is an eye problem doctors don’t commonly check for. This condition affects the ability to differentiate between shades of grey, causing blurry vision, especially in low light. Carotenoids are antioxidants that protect the eyes against blue light, chemicals, damage from diabetes, and more. However, as we age, carotenoids decrease, so eye protection also decreases. Full-spectrum light can be helpful but will not solve the problem. To improve eyesight, you need to increase the efficiency of the retina. Sunlight is vital for eye and retina health. It allows UV and infrared light into the eye and can also help build up the eye’s melatonin. You can increase carotenoids in the eye by consuming foods with lutein and zeaxanthin. Both carotenoids are found in egg yolks. If you choose supplements with lutein and zeaxanthin, look for one with at least 10 mg of lutein and 2 mg of zeaxanthin. Research has shown significant improvement in macular degeneration and contrast sensitivity loss in people who took lutein and zeaxanthin for 12 weeks. Ophthalmologist Dr. Chris Knobbe stresses the importance of removing seed oils from the diet and moving towards an ancestral diet for improved eyesight and eye health. Fatty fish like salmon contain omega-3s, which support eye health and reduce inflammation. DHA is vital for the brain and retina and is found in fish oil and cod liver oil. Vitamin D is critical for every part of the eye and can help with conditions like glaucoma, macular degeneration, and retinopathy. Take at least 10,000 IU of vitamin D every day. Vitamin A is essential, especially for night vision. Zinc can also help! #health #keto #ketodiet #weightloss #ketolifestyle #intermittentfasting #lowcarb Thanks for watching!

What do you think the most dangerous food in the world is? Find out! DATA: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3704564/ 0:00 Introduction: What is the most dangerous food? 0:28 Why this is the most dangerous food in the world 6:10 The most dangerous food in the world 8:53 Check out this video on the healthiest foods! Today, we're going to talk about the most dangerous food you can eat and what makes it so dangerous. Factors that make this the worst food in the world for your health: 1. It combines starch and fat under high heat • This creates advanced glycation end products, which affect your eyes, brain, heart, and kidneys. 2. Hydrogenated oils • This contains trans fats, which affect your cells, harden your arteries, and may increase your risk for cancer. 3. Acrylamide • This is a neurotoxin that has been linked to Alzheimer's. 4. Sugar • Sugar can lead to many different health problems. This food may contain sugar, beet sugar, dextrose, or maltodextrin. All of these types of sugars are very dangerous. 5. Glyphosate • I believe glyphosate can potentially alter a person's microbiome and may lead to negative health effects. 6. Seed oils • These oils are very inflammatory. 7. Ketchup • Ketchup contains high fructose corn syrup, which can lead to fatty liver and insulin resistance. It also has corn syrup, modified corn starch (MSG), and soy oil. You probably guessed it—the most dangerous food in the world for your health is French fries.
