In this podcast, I’m going to share with you the one vitamin that helps you lose weight.
The vitamin that can help support weight loss is vitamin D.
A few causes of a vitamin D deficiency:
• Obesity
• Diabetes
• Insulin resistance
• Stress
• High blood pressure
• Autoimmune conditions
• Inflammation
The common thread in all of the above conditions is insulin resistance. High insulin is behind weight problems.
Vitamin D benefits:
• Lowers stress
• Lowers insulin
• Lowers inflammation
• Lowers estrogen
• Increases good bacteria
• Decreases metabolic syndrome
How to lose weight with vitamin D:
• Get more sun
• Take a vitamin D supplement (20,000 IUs with vitamin K2)

| 0:21.6 | Welcome to the Dr. Berg's Healthy Keto and Interminute Fasting Podcast, where Dr. Berg takes you on the journey for the truth about getting healthy and losing healthy weight. Hi guys. I'm back. In this video, we're going to talk about the |
| 0:46.5 | vitamin that can actually help you lose weight. Can you guess what it is? Well, you're |
| 0:51.3 | probably looking over there and you're seeing what it is, but it's vitamin D. |
| 0:55.5 | Did you realize there's over 140 clinical trials on the relationship between vitamin D and obesity? |
| 1:02.0 | There is a ton of research related to this topic. So let's talk about why vitamin D could help you lose weight. |
| 1:08.6 | Now, as a side note, I remember this patient who used to come into my |
| 1:11.4 | office when I had my office, he had this gut, this huge belly. And he'd go to Florida for a two-week |

| 1:34.7 | very interesting. Vitamin D deficiency occurs when someone becomes obese. It occurs routinely |
| 1:41.7 | in diabetics, when you have insulin resistance, when you're under stress, |
| 1:46.9 | you're usually deficient in vitamin D. Actually, when you get certain vitamins, and I'm talking |
| 1:51.5 | specifically the flu, you're usually always deficient in vitamin D. When you have asthma, |
| 1:57.7 | you're usually deficient in vitamin D. High blood pressure, you usually have a vitamin D deficiency. |
| 2:03.3 | Autoimmune conditions and inflammation, you have a situation where you don't have enough vitamin D. |
| 2:09.7 | Now, what's interesting, if you look at all these conditions, what would be the common thread? |
| 2:15.2 | Well, right here, insulin resistance, which is really created by having |
| 2:20.2 | too much insulin. Too much insulin in type 2 diabetes, definitely an obesity or a stubborn metabolism. |
