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.

Now, this is one of those myths that I'm not sure where it came from, but I hear it periodically.

The reason why you're not losing weight is you're just not eating enough food.

So eat more food and then you'll lose weight.

This absolutely does not make any sense at all because how could adding more calories cause you to lose more calories? It's illogical. No, that's not the thing that

stimulates your metabolism. So this is just based on someone's opinion. It's wrong information.

And so you're going to have bad results if you just eat more calories

and think that's the thing that's going to help you. What you do want to do is increase more nutrients.

Okay, that's going to help you get healthy. That makes more sense. But the right information is this.

You want to reduce the carbs, okay? Reduce your carbohydrate calories and then eat less frequently.

I didn't say lower your calories, just don't eat as often.

Okay?

What's that going to do?

It's going to decrease insulin.

What is that going to do?

It's going to fix something called insulin resistance.

Insulin resistance is what's behind a slow metabolism.

If you try to lose weight and you can't seem to get down past a certain point, you have like a set

point of let's say it's, I don't know, 160 pounds, but you cannot get past that. All that means is

you have insulin resistance. And you've probably been eating carbs or dieting for a long

time. And so now your body is like completely stuck. How do you fix it? Very simply, get on healthy keto.
