In this podcast, Dr. Berg talks about what happens when you only use exercise for weight loss without a good eating plan. The belly is an indirect indicator of the amount of insulin there is in the body. Insulin is the fat-storing hormone that is triggered by various things – It stores fat around the middle section and the liver. Exercise as a tool for weight loss will not lower insulin to any significant degree.
What to Do?
• Cut the Carbs – like brown rice, pasta, wine, fruits
• Intermittent fasting - Decrease the frequency of meals. Stop snacking before or after your workout and workout in a fasting state.

| 0:00.0 | So if you guys have any questions whatsoever about keto or in a minute fasting, |
| 0:04.4 | whether you're starting keto as a new person or just need to debug your program or we have a question about a product. |
| 0:10.5 | Call one of our keto consultants. They'll be able to help you. Call 5405.7. |
| 0:29.0 | Welcome to the Dr. Berg's Healthy Kito and Interminute fasting podcast, where Dr. Berg takes you on the journey for the truth about getting healthy and losing healthy weight. Hey I'm back and in this video we're going to talk about what happens when you only use |
| 0:48.4 | exercise for weight loss and you don't use a good eating plan. |
| 0:54.0 | I hear this all the time where people pretty much say, |
| 0:57.0 | I'm just going to eat what I want |
| 0:59.0 | and I'm just going to exercise off the extra calories, okay? But what's interesting these people always, they might |
| 1:06.4 | look muscular or bulky, but they always have a gut or a middle section. I have this guy at the |
| 1:11.7 | gym, the gym that I go to that I see every time I'm in there. This guy is into some serious exercise, okay? I mean, he can do a million sit-ups. He can do all sorts of things that I can't do, but he has a pizza crust and he has a gut right here. |

| 1:37.3 | insulin you have in your body. It's really insulin. Insulin is the hormone that |

| 1:46.1 | It stores fat around the middle section and in the liver and it also prevents you from |
| 1:52.2 | tapping in or using the fat around the midsection. |
| 1:55.6 | If you have middle section weight or love handles or anything as a top roll or anything right here, |
| 2:01.6 | your insulin is just too high. An exercise as a tool |
| 2:06.0 | will not lower insulin to any significant degree. So you're kind of leaving 85 to 90% of the results on the table when you're only using |
| 2:15.8 | exercise as your only tool. Now you might think you're doing the right eating plan, but the bottom |
| 2:19.9 | line is, is it working, is it causing your stomach to actually go flat so when you see |
| 2:25.6 | some with a gut it's actually an eating problem it's not a lack of exercise |
