Methylated B12 too.
You have to be careful with iodine and selenium.
You have to get your T3, T4, TSH, thyroid hormones tested before attempting to take these supplements. If you don't get tested, and you don't need them; you can mess up your thyroid and it'll take a while to reset and reregulate on its own naturally.
Thank you for this I been back and forth on the easy way to get ahead on my weight gain this is just what I needed to hear.

Is berberine safe to use for one with CKD stage 3 and fatty liver?

What do i do for psoriasis? I definitely can't eat all of those foods in order to cure it
I HAVE LYME DISEASE. I'VE DONE YEARS WORTH OF BATTLES WITH DOCTORS AND THE AD THAT YOU HAD PRIOR TO THIS VIDEO, IT MADE A WHOLE LOT OF SENSE TO ME, BECAUSE I WAKE UP WITH ABSOLUTELY NO ENERGY I EVEN USE RED LIGHT THERAPY. I EAT PRETTY WELL AND I'M TIRED ALL THE TIME. I DO TAKE MEGATRENDS. BLOOD BUILDER TO HELP MY RED BLOOD CELLS STILL TIRED
4:15 i was 50yo fat percentage 32% 180lbs desired to get down to 155lbs after six weeks, I was 40% couldn’t open a jar of pickles!! I stopped GLP1 After losing muscle, going to the gym was sorely disappointing, work got more stressful (hospice nurse during covid) fast forward today I weigh 222lbs 45% fat.
Even when I did workout because of the added affect of peri menopause ( decreased hormones and and increasing fat accumulation and wasting muscle)
I’ve always been healthy, however, HRT isn’t for anyone especially if you have fibroids and uterus… risking cancers.
My lab’s estrogen level 9.6, testosterone 15.
55yo now and it’s not easy to lose weight or rebuild muscle but I’m in the gym 3x week kicking butt. ❤
Every time I take berberine, it gives me diarrhea. Am I taking it wrong?
is CrossFit ok to do when you only have three hours, three days a week available for training.
Hi Dr. Axe what do you think about GL-P1 supplements?
Remember that the 20 year aging up is just in 3 months of taking ozempic type meds.
🥗🥗🥬🥬Very much appreciate that he advocates getting protein from plants with fiber along with some meats if you eat that. But the plants ARE enough if you don't eat animal flesh.
I appreciate this, but how I wish these people who are dispensing advice would warn you about certain foods if you are on any heart meds!
Could you recommend a brand of Berberine? And also which type is more beneficial, HCI or DHB?
Love your honesty, great video. Thank you!
Thank you, I’m in a wheelchair but not obese. Just need to lose maybe fifteen lbs. I’m going to try and follow your suggestions. Can’t do a lot of exercise but some. I can work on my diet. Thanks again.
Thank you for this video!! Monday was my appointment with my doctor to start taking Ozempic!! Not anymore after seeing this video!!!
Oooolong tea is high in polyphenols.
I agree completely! I've been a renal dietitian for 25 years, including experience in weight management and bariatrics. Many want a quick fix without making dietary or lifestyle changes. Like you, I believe we will start to see the deleterious effects of these medications.
Thank you
