Are there any Virta doctors in South Florida?

👋🙂🇦🇺 Thanks for everything you are doing.

how bout no equipment, no treatment provider: can u fast for 24 hrs & then walk a mile or do an hours chores w/ no problem? then ur prob doin ok... sez omnivore who has had ZERO tests & ZERO dr prescripts in 4 decades. avoid doctors, dentists & injections, if u KNOW whats good for u. read dr joel wallach's book 'lets play doctor', & look into dr salisbury's 3 century old diet of daily beefsteak & coffee

I've got mild NAFLD, and have been on a basic Keto diet + 16:8 intermittent fasting, but when I test my glucose and ketones, they are not what they should be. I seem to have glucose in the low hundreds, and am rarely in light ketosis. Can NAFLD contribute to this problem? Is my fat liver using that fat to create those glucose spikes??

Which Olympic champion dit he train? None … ?

Thanks!

Can see this helping cancer patients like Dr Nasha Winters has implemented in her practice. But for building muscle - activating Mtor and recovering from intense exercise like Gymnastics strength training, Crossfit and the like i wouldnt pursue it. 20 percent protein 10 percent carbs and 70 percent Lipids is perfect for aerobic energy systems - long distance running

Zero Problems

After losing 30 pounds following Virta my total and LDL cholesterol increased significantly but my Triglycerides were reduced in half and are perfect. Doctor freaked out and is insisting putting me on Statins. At this point I am refusing after been put on them years ago with bad side effects. I am scheduled for a CT scan with contrast in a month. I will consider my options after this. I had a Calcium Score 5 years ago without contrast and the score was zero.

I got banned from the Virta community for quoting Dr. Phinney. Sad the company he formed did this.

She doesn’t have a clue. There’s a lot of us having keto rash. Especially after several months being on keto.

What if dairy causes inflammation and always causes me to crave carbs? I have a sensitivity to dairy protein.

What about hydrochlorizide in blood pressure meds

Thank you for information. I have c-peptides at upper normal value according to lab. My last examination was 6 months ago. Is it possible that c -peptide to go much lower within 6 months? Even i have a1c 5? Thanks again

had to add Boron to stop cramping

Come on really…? Go to my doctor for this? I am educating my cardiologist on LP (a) and what tests are out there and what the numbers mean. But truthfully he is only interested in LDL C and getting me on a statin.

Thank you for your dedication to learning and sharing your knowledge in Nutritional Ketosis. I am new with Virta and I already see the difference in my body. I am totally a believer because I have tried everything and only Virta made a program so monitored and so easy to follow. I am forever grateful..

Hi. Pls share your journey. I need motivation n support.

DCA is a potent inhibitor of gluconeogenesis, don't even worry about Metformin for this, it doesn't do shit for glucose levels if you're on keto.

i had a dream a greater p@ndemic came and there was no meat and the keto pips couldn't adjust back to the g0vernmnet carb handouts. A lot of my dreams come true /:

I don’t understand how anyone in their right mind can believe eating the corporate of animals is healthy for humans . ☠️💩🦠💊🧪 More than 90 percent of animal meat being purchased in markets come from factory farms. Animals like humans carry many diseases. More 75 percent of pharmaceutical drugs are being given to animals being raised for food.

My tris are 80 but my a1c is 5.9. Weird

Hey Dr. Phinney, I've read about how ketone levels can drop as we adapt to a keto diet. Initially, they're high but drop as we start using free fatty acids for fuel directly and ketones mainly for the brain. Is this true and do you know of any publications on this? thank you!

Neither increase your exercise or do more intense exercise for the same length of time. Also completely examine what you are eating and make sure you are eating exactly what you intend to and nothing extra is slipping in

**If you have the rash**: Please try eating celery (approx 200 grams a day) and drink diluted fresh lemon juice (ca. 2 tablespoons in a glass of water, 4 times a day). It has worked incredibly well for me (within 24 hours!), and I have tried almost everything until now without success, including; Bile salts, digestive enzymes, electrolytes, frequent showers, cold showers, dandelion root extract, nigella sativa, selsun blue, different vitamins and minerals, omega 3, drinking more water, avoiding high histamine foods, etc.

How can I find out my carbohydrate tolerance?

I think "keto rash" is caused by the competition between ketones and uric acid for excretion by the kidneys. Newcomers (like me) are making abundant ketones long before we are "fat adapted" to burning ketones for fuel. It is well known that uric acid levels are high in the blood of newbies to the keto diet. We begin making ketones within a few days of starting "clean keto" but it may take several weeks (or months) for our bodies to figure out how to efficiently burn the ketones for fuel. In the meanwhile, ketones are piling up in our blood and must be removed by the kidneys if we are to survive. The kidneys must shift from predominately uric acid removal to primarily ketone excretion, leaving excess uric acid in the blood. The high blood uric acid normalizes (even improves) after a few months of keto. Early on, the kidneys must prioritize ketone excretion over uric acid excretion to prevent keto-acidosis, a potentially life threatening condition. In doing so, that high uric acid finds its way into our skin, specifically the sweating apparatus, causing inflammation with its attendant itching. Boosting ketone production with coconut oil & MCT oil exacerbates the problem as more kidney resources are reserved for ketone excretion causing higher & higher blood uric acid, which is being diverted to our backup excretion, sweat glands & ducts. Adding carbs or insulin stops ketosis but that may not be the only way. Eventually, we should "fat adapt" & stop the dominoes from falling but that can take weeks or months of intense itching. Eliminating exogenous sources of ketones, like coconut & MCT oil should help. Allopurinol, used to lower uric acid in gout, may help but requires a prescription and medical supervision. Allowing blood glucose to rise enough to slow down ketone production without stopping it (~70 mg/dL), should allow the kidneys to resume their primary job of removing uric acid from the blood stream, preventing the excess uric acid from entering the sweating apparatus. Symptomatic treatment of "keto rash" is no different from "heat rash", keep cool while lowering the excess ketones without killing ketosis. Producing more ketones than our body can burn is the problem. Having super abundant ketones without the ability to burn them is not beneficial. Thank you for reading this long explanation

muscle loss due to calorie deficit/protein deficit. more muscle means higher metabolism.

3:34 --- That is a starvation way of eating... Few if any could live even a week eating that bird meal...

70% fat? Where would that much fat come from? lol

I'm OK with Mr. Phinney but eating 5-10% of CARS along with 70% fat numbers are just not realist over time for most of us that weigh under 400LBS.

GOOD VIDEO BUT HE IS WRONG ON FASTING. LOSS OF LEAN TISSUE CERTAINLY DOES NOT HAPPEN IN THE FIRST 5 DAYS OF FASTING. FIRST THE BODY LOOKS AROUND FOR WASTE IN FORM OF USELESS CELLS, WRONG FABRICATED AMINO ACIDS.. IT IS CLEAN UP, CALLED AUTOPHAGY. A JAPANESE SCIENTIST GOT 2016 THE NOBEL PRICE FOR THE DISCOVERY OF IT.

I experienced plateau on keto combined with 18:6 IF at 20kg mark, after staring iron supplements combined with shilajit (for reducing my massive menstrual bleeding which caused anemia in the first place).

oddly on keto, my HDL and LDL went way up as well as cholesterol but my triglicerides went down as well as lowered VLDL cholesterol after starting keto a month ago, WTF?

I have had no gallbladder for 40 years and also have had Hep C for 40 years with near normal numbers. When I did Keto a few years ago my Cholesterol went from 150 to nearly 400 and my triglycerides doubled in just a year from 75 to 144. I went off Keto for a couple of years and my Cholesterol returned to normal. I have gained significant weight and am borderline diabetic, so I’ve started Keto again, I’m keeping my net carbs below 20gm. What can I do to produce bile so my cholesterol doesn’t go up so high and stay on Keto? Any help would be appreciated! Do you think bile salts would be helpful?

Thank you for this info. Looking forward to our meeting tomorrow! Elaine

IF you folks have watched naked and aftaid on TV and saw what happens to those folks bodies there would be no question the Dr. Phinney in right about fasting. Some of them lose so much fat and muscles they look awful when they are done. Facts are facts. 🙂

Oh dear Halberg was not reversing diabetes, she would just have you hide from carbohydrates perpetuating the myths and assumptions of 200 years ago. Ignore her. If you have to hide from carbohydrates you are not correcting the problems in your body. Keep in mind that the longest lived most healthy populations on the planet eat almost exclusively carbohydrates and next to no meat, eggs, fish and dairy. She did not understand insulin resistance. Her keto approach will bring you all the standard diabetic outcomes of kidney disease, heart disease, vascular dementia, stroke and cancer.... which sadly Sarah found out first hand. Unfortunately she clearly wasn't that bright as way before the science was understood the literature over the last 100 years showed us that it is oils, fats and animal protein that cause insulin resistance and T2 diabetes. Anyone who really wants to correct the condition of their body should read and listen to Mastering Diabetes by two T1 diabetics and biochemist who actually understand how the body really works.

My ketones went up to 4.9 mmol/litre whole blood after a few days...., GKI was .55

Lol Nausea is very common, I go off keto for the holidays and back on for the rest of the year and every single time I experience some sort of diarrhea/constipation and nausea while my body is adapting to the fat intake

My triglycerides shot up my ldl shot up and my hdl dropped a lot. I've done keto before many times and my cholesterol has always been great. What does it mean now since I've done a paleo-ketogenic very high fat diet losing weight and my cholesterol ratios are terrible. Does it mean there is a disease process going on? Does it mean my body is clearing fat stored in the liver or heavy metals. What is causing this? How could I have high triglycerides I only have 1 to 3 apples peeled per day that's all the carbs I ever have. I'm always in ketosis according to ketone testing ( blood/keto mojo)

It's very vital because i used dapagliflozin while carnivore diet and i passed out and after that i went to hospital and my potassium level below 3.5. So that it's very dangerous IMO

I’ve been taking magnesium for years, then went full time keto last August. I was having lots of cramps, so added potassium, which helped for a bit. I also rub magnesium lotion on my calf muscles after I shower at night. So I added more salt to my diet, and that’s helped greatly too. But one thing that has really helped is stretching my leg muscles, especially after a hard day at work where I’m on my feet all day in work boots, and walking a lot! I think stretching is a component that’s being missed by a lot of people, as adding supplements can only do so much.

Fantastic study results!
