are you on keto and intermittent fasting and still your blood Sugar’s are not coming down to normal let’s talk about that well that probably means that you have severe insulin resistance and has been there chronically for a long time and that means that your insulin is just too high and your cells have a problem with absorbing insulin so it keeps the sugars high okay so there’s a couple of things that you should do number one are you doing everything correctly reevaluate are your proteins correct are your carbs correct is your fats correct are you doing enough vegetables so I’m gonna put a link down below to show you a little mini course so you can kind of compare what you’re doing to what you should be doing to make sure that it is correct number two you may have to drop your carbohydrates so if you’re doing 50 carbohydrates per day 50 grams lower it down to 20 if you’re doing 20 grams of carbohydrates drop it down to 10 grams okay because this is a really important point there’s a lot of hidden carbs out there so I’m gonna put a link down below of a video on hidden carbs because that will kind of bring up your awareness on what you could be consuming unknowingly okay but this is like a really important thing to fix this because what’s causing this to be chronic and not come down is it’s there’s something bringing up insulin so we want to eliminate any possibility okay number three decrease the frequency of meals start pushing your eating window closer and closer together because the less meals you consume now better this will get okay number four you add the nutrients you have the B vitamins in the nutritional yeast you have the potassium and electrolytes two very important things you can also add zinc and chromium those are other trace minerals that can actually speed things up but this is one of those things that can actually accelerate improvement of this number 5 exercise another factor in helping improve this situation okay and then number six the weak link what is your weak link take a look at the other parts of your body that are an issue so we take the different systems you have digestion you have hormones like the thyroid adrenal you have the liver you have inflammatory conditions you have all these different things what I would do is I would take your weak link and focus on that because certain body problems could be hanging this up so basically you want to take these other things that you might not think are associated prove those to improve this and of course we’d also want to include in there if you have insomnia you want to sleep more if you’re under stress we want to reduce the stress I have a ton of videos online about this and I also have a book that covers every possible barrier that goes into the body types and a lot of other conditions that can be preventing you from normalizing the blood sugars okay and then lastly it could be that you just need to give it a little more time because if you’re doing all these things correctly and this has been there for years it’s going to take time to resolve so give it some time and eventually it will improve thanks for watching hey if you’re interested in finding out the underlying cause of your body issues click the link below and take the evaluation quiz
