You are the MAN!!!! Keep Spreading the Truth Doc Cywes 🥩🥩🥩🥩

Fantastic insight. No endocrinologist has ever answered this Q adequately. Thank-you, Rob. 🥩

Such a nice talk, great informations and explanations. You are a great teacher, carnivore ON !!!

First, love you 😍 doc, thank you for taking your time to do video!!

Superb Explanation !!

The way you explain physiology is amazing. I’m able to better understand how the human body works. Connecting dots is important when it is all linked to chronic and excessive carbohydrate consumption. Thank you again for sharing.

Sleep is the most frustrating topic, because there is no magic pill that gives it to you. Every pill has a side effect that screws you in some other way.

I have never slept well-- I had no idea that sleep was THIS important!

Thanks Dr. Robert! Finally someone who explains to me, and others, what the heck is going on with my blood sugar in the morning. I did figure out it had to do something with sleep, or better lack off it, but not the underlying processes that cause it.

Thank you for another very enlightening and informative video 🙏 I’m positive this is my problem! I’ve been Keto for 2 years and 7 months. Been ketocarnivore for the last 12 months, mostly carnivore, very low to no carbs 24/7. Plenty of physical activities, I’ve been removing stressors from my life for the last year. I’m eating one meal a day now. I’m fasting because at this stage of Keto it just comes naturally. It seems to me I’m doing it all right? Yet sleep evades me like the plague. First off I’m a vivid dreamer. Oh my dreams are colorful, loud, specific and it’s like being in another world when I have them. My dreams actually come to fruition in real life sometimes. I’m also an artist, so my mind is full of continuous ideas for art pieces. Other rare times I dream nothing as if I died in the bed. I’m lucky to get 5 hours of sleep. Dr. Cywes how can I solve this? I know it’s impeding my Keto journey. Don’t get me wrong, Keto has done miracles for me in these 2 years 7 months. It’s just the sleep I can not conquer and I know it’s caused my weight loss to stall and cause the sensation that Keto has stopped working.

Wow! Dr. Cywes, thank you for sharing. I’ve had issues with my sleep since my twenties. I’m 52. I worked 12 shifts with a month of days then a month of nights and back and forth for quite some time. I’ve always needed much more sleep than it seems other people needed. I feel overall poorly on 5-6 hours a night. I’ve started getting better sleep lately and it’s making a huge difference. This all makes so much sense.

Excellent presentation, gives me ideas on controlling my dawn effect, which is more like after-dawn for me. Glucose on waking is usually around the 7.0 mmol/L (125) but steadily rises to around 8.5 (155) by mid morning. After that it slowly reduces throughout the rest of the day.

So much knowledge!! I truly wish you were my Dr. I know without a doubt my Type 1 diabetes would be under control. Last A1C was 8.2... Awful... lots of stress and no health insurance...ugh!!😦

Thank you so much

Thank you Dr Rob for sharing this valuable information 👍

Thank you for your work. It has helped me tremendously.

I have cured my type 2 diabetes, lost the weight normalized all of my blood work but have been confused as to why my sugars run higher than I would like after an 18 hr fast and less than 20 carbs per day. I have had sleep issues for years which I am working on with some success. Have gone from having poor sleep every night, never achieving REM or deep sleep and at least 3 nights per week where I do not sleep at all to regularly getting an hour of deep and 1 and a half of REM. I am moving in the right direction and now have a better understanding as to what is happening and how to fix it. You are an inspiration Dr Cywes. Thank you.

When I open your video…I’ve just walked in the classroom. All attention to the teacher. “He’s a good one” I say.

It's amazing how just a few variables can cause a domino effect of systemic dysfunction. Once more reinforcing the critical importance of proper sleep, nutrition and, exercise. Thanks for taking the time to explain this Dr. Cywes.

Well, that explains a lot. I am diabetic but I am not on medication, I am controlling it with a keto diet. I have had problems with sleep for years (late shifts). I also am not loosing weight anymore on keto. I am now just starting to sleep a little better so perhaps things will start to change around (so far still have the dawn effect). Thanks for the info.

Thank you for sharing this insight, finally found the reason behind my lifelong (55) and increasing sleep deprivation. More HIIT&fasting it will be.

May I clone you...and marry said clone...incredible...unfathomable kudos and blessings to your wife and son. Your passion and intelligence regarding all things health-engendering are priceless....No exageration. Merci from France.

I enjoyed this explanation. So easy to understand! Wow, This channel is so good.🎉

Loved !!!! Best Video yet Dr. Rob

Thank you. Once again you have solved a mystery. Years ago when my insulin was extremely high I had low growth hormone and suffered extreme muscle weakness. I have had lack of sleep from a new baby recently and my insulin has in back in diabetic ranges. This explains my muscle weakness again and I will have my growth hormone tested to see if it is low again. I knew all this 6 years ago from researching at the time. How could I have forgotten? Thank you for all the great information you provide.

Concrete, specific evidence of the harm that "people" are doing, when they drive around with their loud mufflers, and loud sound systems, interrupting others' sleep. Concrete evidence of the harm that flight schools do to communities, with their loud, cheap, little planes. Concrete evidence of the harm that people do with their loud fireworks.

Hormonal lady here …cannot remember the last full nights sleep I had … diet good low carb …no processed carbs at all …and exercise also …but a full nights sleep is elusive …..

Great, doc. Thank you

Thank you so much for the time you take to make theses videos; they are fantastic.

This all makes sense. I don't have blood. Sugar issues during the day. I have high blood sugar of 95-100 in the mornings then it is fine the rest of the day. I haven't slept week of 4 or 5 years and this explains why I'm dealing with the dawn phenomenon

Excellent, thanks Rob.

Dr. Cywes is fantastic - I keep telling everyone how important the right sleep is, do naps count?

60 year old Male. Thank you Doc. and yes sir, you ARE the Carb Addiction Doc. My Doc. Down 118 2 years, 51.2 since Jan 2021. Executing the plan, feeling amazing. Medications for pre diabetes dropping off down to 1. hahahhahh Sleep Baby, Sleep. you said. Has worked for me my whole Life. Great Grandmother was right. Not one of my previous docs EVER had a clue, ( eat 5 to 7 times a day just small meals :(, kept me fat and ignorant for years. Grateful. Cywes, Berry. Real Docs. no product sales. BOOM.

Thank you Dr Cywes great info

I've been resigned to insomnia for years which I thought was an effect of hypothyroidism, but never considered the lack of sleep may actually be contributing to the hypothyroidism. I thought my hypothyroidism possibly stemmed from oestrogen dominance. Very interesting thank you.

I couldn't understand the word just before the word hormone at 5:50. Great talk. It clears up a lot of confusion. Thank you.

Please write a book if you haven't already!!!!

Thank you for the explanation. I could not understand why BS high in the morning. Not diabetic soooo? I need more sleep! No naps to supplement lack of good nightime sleep and a bit of exercise EVERY day. Going to give it a go!!

Sleep is my kryptonite! Been low carb for 4 yrs, but menopause has made my sleep worse so I am definitely not making somatostatin!😞

Fabulous vid. Thank you Dr.

Fantastic information 👌🏾👍🏾💪🏾🇬🇧

I have been wondering for a long time what causes the dawn effect. I didn't know it was directly tied to sleep. Yet another reason to cut out caffeine. I am already on keto, but when I have caffeine I don't lose weight. I have also had to cut back on meat to only 3 oz per meal (see Dr. Berg) and not eat dairy due to inflammation and gout like symptoms (joint pain) including uric acid kidney stones.

So, how do we sleep 8 hours? I’m in bed for the 8 hours but I wake up several times a night.

When will you write a book? Do it man

Number one video❤❤❤❤❤

Brilliant.

My middle name is dawn effect. Waking maybe 110 then peaks at 130 or more. OMAD, In ketosis. 1000 mg metformin at night. Well, Bikman says when you are producing ketones, you are also producing glucose. Only time it goes away is 2 days into a fast. In the 80s. Right back next morning after refeeding one meal. I only sleep 6 hours, but feel stimulated and energetic when I wake.

So, how do we get a decent night’s sleep.

dankie, Jy is baas, mooi

The more physical activity I get the worse I sleep.

I take HRT because I don't get enough sleep working night shits for 30 years has taken such a toll .

So inject 4iu of human growth hormone per day and inhibit somatostatin for maximum anabolic benefits? That's what you said right? And blast IGF1-LR3 for a few weeks now and then to reset insulin sensitivity and build even more muscle. I'm pretty sure you said that too. Thank Dr

Hi Doc I have been T1D almost since birth. I have never been unable to develop muscle mass at all. Have used Insulin for 73 years. I have pushed weights, cycled 1000's of kilometers. I still only weigh 66 kgs, with no muscle development at all. Why does this happen?

Pozdrawiam serdecznie i życzę miłego dnia

My question.Is 5 human growth hormone injections per month safe. I have serious cartilage injuries and want to use it for cartilage repair. You can research it.Human growth hormones is the only thing that can actually heal cartilage

I’m not sleeping because I wake with severe pain. Help!

How to Omega 6's play into the inflammation ? I have noticed a substantial decrease in aches and pains since going ketovore about 4 months ago... now I'm wondering if I should up my Seafood to increase the Omega 3s to mitigate any Omega 6 exposure I get...

Would taking Octreotide as discussed by Dr. Robert Lustig be of any value to reduce insulin for someone with leptin & insulin resistance?

This is off the subject but I stopped taking Metformin, cold turkey, 500 mg once a day because it was causing me bathroom issues and I was uncomfortable going anywhere. Do you think I made a mistake? I am taking Berberine, Ceylon Cinnamon and some other supplements to help control my sugar. I also do Low Carb/High Fat and moderate exercise. However, I have been off the wagon for a few days now and plan on going strict again starting Monday (Aug 9)

Only time I've been able to get more than 6 hours of sleep is when I've extremely sick or depressed. Is this the price of stress? 🤔

I am desparate to get sleep. I have not slept more than 1-2 hrs for 4 months from anxiety. Glucose is out of wack! Pain and inflammation flaring up. I have done keto for 5 years, so no sugar or starches here! Have always had problems sleeping from childhood, am now 63. Have not found any relief. My pre diabetes was reversed with keto with the exception of high cholesterol, had tons of energy felt great, exercised, but now everything is out of balance again in just the last week or so. I am barely able to function. I am very concerned. What do you suggest to get sleep when your body or even drugs won't let you? Please help!

What happens with somatostatin when you don’t have a stomach and the surgeons connected the eosophagus to the jejunum not deodunum???

Disappointed, Doc! You didn’t say “I am the carb addiction doc” That’s the best bit.

I can’t get my dawn effect below 200 and on a strict low carb carnivore diet. I sleep well but get up to pee 2-4 times a night. Go right back to sleep fast and dream (rem) most of the night. Very frustrating. A1c climbing.

Born to teach

Sorry I keep BG between 63 and 90 .

I’m in bed from 9-6 and my first morning BG is usually between 100-125. But, maybe I’m not truly sleeping well. 🤔

Even after three months on carnivore i don't sleep well. Why?

Alpha, beta, delta... they skipped Charlie?

What if you have no thyroid? I take my synthroid in the middle of the night and I sleep like crap!

Ok… I WANT to sleep… but… how do you do that with a 2yo in karate kid mode next to you? Any tips?

I honestly wish GHB did not because this rape designer drug .When I was able to buy it over the counter as nutritional supplement one scoop and you were in the deepest REM sleep for 4 hours with a dopmine surge to boot when you woke up not a sedating hangover.

Humans software is interesting

Semasestatin????

How do you spell surmatastatin

No way I can sleep 9-12 hours. Can barely even reach 7

SOMATOSTATIN

Dude I’m always sleepin

Ok. Now what? I have not slept well for decades.

I CAN make my body sleep ~10hours(without alcohol,...): Just send it on a ~12hours, >2000hm hick just before, *LOL* (Think thats the way I get my growth hormone)

You're speaking about this...without offering a solution.

😳🤔🙏🙏

Do you suppose your trolls have gone and gotten themselves into a hypoglycemic stupor? Kinda of quite there...

Really awkwardly long pauses...

Arg - the irony of watching this at 1:30 AM…must do better!
