| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Dr. Berg's Healthy Keto and Interminute Fasting Podcast, where Dr. Berg takes you on the video on why taking vitamin D can help you lose weight. |
| 0:27.8 | Today, we're going to talk about the reverse of that. Your fat cells actually determine your |
| 0:32.7 | vitamin D levels. Now, this is a bit complex, so I'm going to attempt to make it very simple. So hopefully I won't |
| 0:39.5 | confuse you more, but I did put the link of the video down below. And also, it'll be at the end of this |
| 0:44.2 | video. Okay. So what are we talking about? We're talking about how much fat you have on your |
| 0:51.1 | body and your vitamin D level. So there's two things you need to know. |
| 0:56.2 | The fatter you are, the less vitamin D you're going to have. Obese people have very low vitamin D |
| 1:01.6 | levels. When you lose weight, you actually increase your vitamin D level. Okay. But why? Why does your |
| 1:09.9 | vitamin D levels go up when you lose weight? In order to understand that, |

| 1:25.1 | can increase weight as well. And we're talking about expanding the adipatite. |
| 1:29.9 | All right. So what's the missing piece of the puzzle? Is this little guy right here, which I rarely |
| 1:35.4 | talk about insulin or insulin resistance, right? That's insulin and insulin resistance. So if you |
| 1:41.2 | have too much insulin over a period of time, your body becomes resistant. And now |
| 1:45.0 | insulin is dysfunctional and your body starts making more and more and more of it. So in other |
| 1:50.7 | words, certain functions of insulin are not working. For example, your ability to absorb glucose, |
| 1:58.6 | your ability to absorb nutrients, your ability to lower blood sugars, |
| 2:03.7 | becomes a problem. However, certain other functions of insulin are not affected, like insulin's |
| 2:11.2 | function to store fat and also prevent fat burning. So you get fatter, but you're not able to |
| 2:17.1 | adjust the blood sugars |
| 2:18.1 | or absorb the nutrient or absorb the fuel in your cells. So the cells are always hungry all the |
