7:21 The best slim waist tips
If you’re on a low-carb diet, exercising regularly, yet still struggling with waist size, this is for you.
There are 7 fat-burning hormones that are triggered by factors such as exercise and diet. These hormones are countered by 2 other dominant hormones, cortisol and insulin. In the presence of these two hormones, fat-burning hormones will not work!
Cortisol isn’t just a stress hormone! It’s also a fat-storing hormone, specifically at night. If your cortisol is too high at night, you will not burn fat while you’re sleeping.
Insulin is a fat-storing hormone that stops fat-burning hormones from working. High cortisol can cause your body to produce glucose, consequently spiking insulin.
If you’re struggling with weight loss, especially belly fat, discipline and willpower aren’t the problem. You can’t lose weight while under stress!
Lemon balm tea is one of the best weight loss drinks! It contains rosmarinic acid, which increases GABA. To improve the benefits, consume lemon balm tea with 1 scoop of magnesium glycinate powder, 60 minutes before bed. Magnesium glycinate helps lower cortisol levels and also increases GABA and insulin sensitivity.
Here are a few other tips to help you lose belly fat:
•No snacking
•No liquids 90 minutes before bed
•Lower carbohydrate intake
•Daily walks in the sun
•Write down problems before bed to avoid problem-solving/overthinking while trying to sleep

Feeling amazing after a 18-hour fast! I’ve lost weight in my midsection, ankles, and legs. Today’s menu included 3 eggs with avocado and a cup of organic coffee. Don’t forget to prioritize your health, take those vitamins and get moving! 💪 was 410lbs now 203 Dr Eric Berg videos are the best.
Just wondering, 3 eggs and avocado was just your 1 meal for the entire day?
@veronicabloom8675 I am doing 2 meals a day . That was my breakfast and after that I’ll have a organic salad or grass fed steaks with mashed cauliflower and homemade keto muffins.
@D@DonJohnson-t2bamazing!! what hours do you do? what do you drink outside of your 18 hour fast? coffee?
Wow good for you!!! How did you fo it?? I am in need of losing at least 40-50 lbs. I am new to Dr. Berg
Is it also called Blue tea?
You’re 100% correct on this one! I’ve gotten the best results when I sleep well, and all of these tips I follow, now will be trying lemon balm tea. Happy Saturday, everyone!
I take glycine, gaba, and Magnesium before bed! It helps!!!
Me too and Phosphatidylserine earlier in the day & L-theanine
Me too! Plus L-theanin .👍
Well how much weight have you lost? Where did you start all that good stuff tell us to details not just what happened
GABA is a wonderful thing for me too, very helpful!
De Berg is truly a blessing to humanity
Love the white board visuals with explanations. Thank you Dr. Berg 🙌🏽🙏🏽
Theres just something about it being an actual board with his writing and not one of those virtual ones with images that pop up. Its funny you made this comment because I was just thinking about it
10 years nightshifts made me gain weight now i understand why tku…
I wish he would name the main point in the beginning of the video and Then explain it thoroughly. So I could decide if this particular information is new/necessary to me or not.
And that goes for all Dr Berg’s videos. Otherwise good.
He always puts the details in the title caption. You can look there .
I like listening to to Dr Berg he always takes it to the end he never takes it half way and cuts off what he is teaching. He is doing his best in bringing information out to our understanding. This has helped me in taking off the pounds His teaching over the last 3 years has taught me that my blood sugar and blood pressure can be controlled with out taking medication if more folks would listen to his teaching they would be on their way to better health. I drop the pounds off in two years from 388 pounds down to 240 pounds I’m a male at 67 now Dr Berg think you for the information
Dr Berg thank you so much! I was 703 pounds 3 months ago and have gotten down to 689 pounds thanks to following your advice (i had a few relapses) but i feel so much better already!!
Yaaay – keep at it and Happy New Year !
You look 160 pounds!
Like he says, get healthy, the benefits are weight loss 💪🏻🙏🏻. You got this, keep on keeping on!
Just like he says, get healthy first, then weight loss is the extra bonus 🙏🏻💪🏻 You got this, keep on keeping on🎉
@dianelott6849thank you this comment made me so happy im going to reward myself

I’ve heard a tablespoon of butter before bed helps with Cortisol and sleep.
Sleeping is so important. Sometimes, no matter how much I eat, when I have a 10 hour sleep I wake up and I feel lighter, my stomach bloat goes away abs I feel great. I love sleep. It’s just hard getting more when you work nights and have 3 children to get to school and pick up. But….. God!!!!🎉
I just had a mild heart attack right before Thanksgiving due to Anxiety and stress . They also found a small clogged artery. I just finished being my mom’s full time caregiver, I lost her in August of 2025 due to dementia. I am now in the process of cleaning out my parents house. I can’t afford to keep it . I don’t know where me and my mom’s dog are going to go. I had to quit my job to take care of her, so now I’m trying to get back out in the work force. So yes I’m stressed out as the only child.
Blessings!!!! We retired early to care for the moms. (Ended up with two houses and three estates to manage in one year.) Believe that you will land on your feet! You will!!! At one point many decades ago, I was calculating expenses vs income and knew I was going to lose my housing. Yikes! Nope! way off. Imagine moving through years of time where blessing upon blessing kept me moving forward. I’m praying for same situation for you!!! 🎉🎉🎉. Thank you for caring so much for your mom. ( A real lack of that these days) Blessings!! 🎉🎉🎉
In ” Germany” there is since months no sun!
Please stop using AI slop in your editing! I want old Dr. Berg!!!
