Welcome to the Dr. Berg's Healthy Keto and Interminate Fasting Podcast, where Dr.

Berg takes you on the journey for the truth about getting healthy and losing healthy weight.

Okay, so I wanted to create a video just to explain that weight loss in general is not a natural thing for your body.

It goes against its main purpose, the body's purpose of surviving, so surviving is not losing anything.

So weight loss is not natural, and that's why when people say, you know, all you have to do is

balance your meals, everything in moderation, very bad advice, because they don't differentiate between the hormones and the nutrients.

They don't look at those factors. Each type of calorie influences hormones differently.

Proteins do stimulate the fat burning hormone, but not if you have too much.

If you add sugar, two proteins, like let's say you have a burger and fries, or burger and a bun, or a burger and a milkshake,

what you're doing is you're quadrupling the amount of insulin that's being pumped out.

Insulin is the hormone that blocks all the bill and it burns fat.

So we want to keep insulin low, we want to keep the sugar down, protein moderate, but you can do frequent meals,

and then also MSG, monosodium glutamate, that actually triggers insulin by 300%.

So that's a lot of hidden chemical in a lot of different fast food places, and it makes the food just taste better,

but really it's just spike in your insulin.

Of course, stress, we want to keep the stress low, but you really have to treat each type of calorie differently.

You want to leverage your hormones and not necessarily have a balanced diet.

So when I talk about get healthy to lose weight, not lose weight to get healthy, I'm talking about the health of the endocrine system.

You might need to, and when I talk about health, I'm not talking about balancing your diet.

A balanced diet is not a healthy diet.

The key is at the end of the day, you end up with the amount of nutrients that you need.

So I'm just going to give you one little tiny example.
