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 weights. Hi guys, listen, I have 2,500 videos, okay, and you too.

2,500.

So sometimes when you go to the channel, it's hard to find where to start because it's all random.

So I wanted to create a beginner's video, the basics. So if you're new to my channel,

if you have friends and family members that are new to my program, this is the first video to

watch. Okay, so let me just kind of break it down. I'll make it really, really fast. Keto or ketosis,

what does keto mean? When you burn fat, your fat breaks down into these

things called ketones. Your body can then use those as fuel. Okay. So your body can actually run in

ketones. It's a much, much better fuel source than sugar fuel

that most people run on.

It's cleaner fuel, it creates a lot of other benefits,

which I get into in other videos, okay?

So keto basically means you're burning fat, okay?

Healthy keto is a version of regular ketosis, but with a twist.

A principle that I use is you don't lose weight and get healthy.

You have to get healthy first to then lose weight.

So getting healthy basically means in relationship to eating,

providing all of your nutrients.

Okay, so you're eating foods that are high quality that

provide all the nutrients. So you get the requirements that our bodies need. So what I recommend

is something called healthy ketosis. All right? So that's the version. The other action that I

recommend is something called IF. What is that? That's intermittent fasting. What is that?
