Doctor Mike on Diets: Ketogenic Diet | Diet Review

Love this! Very educational and would love more diet review videos. It’ll help keep everyone informed and debunk a lot of those myths. Safe to say I will probably never do the keto diet, I love pasta too much 😂😋

As an Asian not eating rice will actually kill me.

Y’all need to quit being thirsty and focus

when i was on keto i had literal dreams about eating bread

I’ve been on Keto, or trying to for 5 months. Retired 67 yrs old male, went from 210 to 165 lbs. I’ve got more energy than ever, in fact, I walk between 10,000 and 18,000 steps almost every day (5 to 9 miles). Some days I’m sure I let a few too carbs in, but I’ve been real good about throwing out processed foods, anything with sugar, starch, and high fructose corn syrup. I miss pasta, rice, potatoes, decadent desserts, but since I’m at the weight I want to be at, I’ll allow myself a departure. I also gave up a pretty heavy beer habit. I kind of obsessed over pre diabetes so I tested for glucose and ketones every day with an affordable meter. I don’t know what my numbers were before the diet, but recent A1C is 4.8. The thing I’d like to emphasize is because your eating more saturated fats, you don’t get hungry. It takes a a week or 2, but eventually when your are fat adapted, 1 meal a day, or eating inside a window of say 18 hours fast, 6 hours eating, is quite easy. Eventually I found I could go 72 hours without eating anything, just coffee, tea or water. Never got hungry. I only stopped because I felt I should eat. Bowel habits improved, chronic cracked heels disappeared, sleep much better, and my mind is sharper. I’m not going to go back ever to the Standard American Diet. That’s what causes BMI issues and pre diabetes, I’m convinced.

Your love for cookies and cream milkshakes hits me in my heart you're so cute

I am a Big Fan Dr. Mike. I request you to make a video on depression and loneliness. Cuz I am sure a lot of people suffer from this. Please make one :) ❤️

My wife and I had tried to conceive for 7 years with no success. After numerous unsuccessful fertility treatments, we finally found a doctor who treats patients with food. It actually happens to be ketogenic diet. Thank God for internet (access to information) that lead us to this doctor. The reason we could not conceive was because our bodies were inflamed due to excessive consumption of carbohydrates. All we had to do 3 months of ketogenic diet. And I emphasize just as the doctor emphasized, it has to be at least 3 months. Thank God and of course the doctor, the miracle has happened! Now we have a beautiful little girl, and another one on the way! Great video content! Thanks! Wishing you all good health!

I’ve been keto now for over four years and I find it very easy to maintain and the food is delicious. My cholesterol numbers are perfect but even more importantly, no more dangerously high triglycerides. The only fault I’ve found so far with keto is the sad fact that I didn’t find out about it years sooner than I did. Keto is so easy for me to stick with and I will not allow anything or any so called special occasion to derail me. My health is way too important to me.

I have been living a ketogenic lifestyle for over a year now and it has been the best decision. I used to be anemic, had migraines all the time, and was always tired. I don't even get migraines anymore and my energy levels are through the roof. The thing that really gets me going is that my hair looks better too! Hyper

I really think that Keto Diet depends a lot of the lifestyle of each person and how carb sensitive they are. I went keto for about half a year and I felt terrible, I started to lost hair, I lost my period and had low energy everyday even though I was doing clean and healthy keto. So I discovered that my body feels better in a moderate to high carb diet with appropriate calorie intake for my body. Now I can lose weight eating whatever I want in moderation and I have lots of energy all the time also my hair stopped falling and my hormones are getting back to healthy levels.

I started keto after thanksgiving to help reduce my migraines. My doctor recommended it. I lost 18 pounds in the first 3 weeks. 7 months in and I’m down 60 pounds and my migraines are virtually gone. I feel so much better now, too.

I have tried every diet out there and Keto has been the only one that works. I im in my 20s, down 70+ lbs in less than a year. Diets are not one size fits all. I was carb addicted and within days of starting the diet, I felt no cravings and have had no problems since. My medical labs are better than ever and I feel great!

Only the Agoge diet works for me, I lost so much fat and feel great. Keto just made me tired.

Keto has been great for my hormone imbalance, so many of my PCOS symptoms are alleviated from this way of eating. I agree it’s not for everybody or even most, but for hormone regulation it can be life changing.

My husband has been doing keto for about 6-7 weeks and has lost 20 lbs. He isn't as irritable and has a better digestive system.

This may be the first doctor talking about this diet that actually has a medical degree and not a doctorate in some homeopathic bullshit

There's definitely soda, ice-cream, cookies, pizza, almost everything can be made with very low carb ingredients. There's entire brands building profits around how this works- they are however low net carb, so we in keto communities treat them as something to only eat on rare occasions.
