Is Breakfast Important? – Dr. Berg

Is breakfast important? Find out.

hey guys dr. Berg here in this video I want to share with you some data on whether you should have a breakfast or whether you shouldn’t now in the past I always recommended that everyone have a breakfast no matter what and that was based on several studies that were done that were very very credible including my own experience and experiences of many many many many people okay I need breakfast okay but as time went on I found not every body type not every person needs a breakfast and in really the determining factor is are you hungry or not if you’re not hungry do not eat why because when you have the breakfast lunch and dinner at dinner and by the way we don’t want to snack between the meals but at dinner we want to start to fast fast all night long until the morning now your body during this time is burning fat as fuel why would we necessarily want to break the fast if you’re not hungry you’re actually eating your own fat as your breakfast we won that we want to keep that going on and maybe you’re hungry later later as a brunch or maybe for actual lunch so that’s that would be the first meal of the day and then you only have two meals so the advantage of doing that is huge for weight loss okay and it’s also good to heal insulin resistance which is a condition where your insulin is all messed up and it’s too high and not going to lose weight and your metabolism is slow so if you were to have two meals a day if you can get away with that that would be really awesome but personally myself I need a breakfast so with breakfast and then the lunch and then sometimes I don’t eat a dinner in fact I probably I’ll have something really really really light because I’m not really hungry so I think with me it’s just reversed I might do these meals large meals and this is very very small and then I go like that so it’s kind of very similar but the point is that if you’re not hungry and you eat it will not stimulate metabolism eating does not stimulate metabolism it slows metabolism down because it increases insulin and the goal is to lower insulin to heal your metabolism because when insulin goes up you will not burn fat okay when this one’s down you burn fat and just eating stimulates metabolism unites insulin so again if you’re not hungry don’t eat if you’re hungry go ahead and have a breakfast and of course make sure there’s no hidden sugars in the breakfast or juice and pancakes and things like that you want kind of approaching breakfast if you’re going to have one okay I just want to make this point this is kind of an update because some of my other videos I tell people always have a breakfast but not if you’re not hungry see you in the next video
