Hey guys, I wanted to tell you what happened in a recent experiment we did with coffee in

0:25.4

my Keto Close Facebook group. It's called Dr. Berg's Keto and Interminate Fasting Lab, okay?

0:31.9

We have about 40,000 members right now, so we're going to be doing all sorts of experiments.

0:36.4

This is our first experiment. I want to tell you what we found. This is a kind of a general

0:40.3

experiment. I'm going to do another one to drill down less variables, more standard, more people.

0:47.9

But I wanted to at least give you some of the results with this generalized study.

0:51.6

And basically all we did is we measured the ketones before and after drinking coffee, okay?

0:59.1

And this was no food involved. It was just straight coffee. Some people added cream. Some people

1:04.8

didn't. So basically we just want to see what would happen with ketones, okay? This is what we found,

1:09.5

which is actually quite surprising. We found the ketones increased after drinking coffee,

1:17.9

which is interesting. And there is some data that I found that coffee can increase the

1:23.1

free fatty acids from the liver. And that's probably what's happening because this fat is being

1:27.5

converted to ketones. Now, I'm going to do some more investigation on if that's actually true

1:31.9

or if there's some other reasons. But I also found some interesting data because I have a

1:37.1

testing kit that measures both blood sugars and ketones, okay? So I checked my blood sugars,

1:44.3

which I was surprised. It went up a little bit. So my blood sugars went up and my ketones

1:49.8

went up myself. So the blood sugars weren't even a part of the study because I didn't tell

1:54.8

people to test their blood sugars. But the next test, I will have people check both the blood

1:59.8

sugars and the ketones to see if there was a difference. And I'm sure someone's going to ask

2:05.5

what device you could find that will measure both ketones and blood sugars. There's not a lot
