| 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. Hey, guys, Dr. Burke here. In this video, I'm going to share with you how you can eat |
| 0:49.8 | bacon and lose your fat. And I'm not kidding. I'm actually totally serious. So just hear me out. |
| 0:56.6 | I have this reference book. It's called Guyton's Physiology. I want to share something with you. |
| 1:02.3 | But before I do, I want to ask you a quick question. Do you know the hormone that acts as a primary |
| 1:08.4 | switch that determines whether your body burns fat or sugar fuel. |

| 2:08.1 | and how fast they turn into sugar and raise your blood sugar, right? So that's kind of a known thing. |
| 2:13.5 | And you probably know that sugar is bad, so you avoid it. And some of you are losing weight, |
| 2:25.6 | but some of you aren't because the glycemic control over insulin is only 50% of what raises insulin. There are other reasons why insulin could be high. And there's even a scale called |
| 2:32.9 | the insulin index that I'm going to talk about. So this is going to shock you. there's even a scale called the insulin index that I'm going |
