@Nephron 99as long you do it healthy (no 0 carbs and no too much fat )keto is very good ,but no for too long
She restricted all her carbohydrates to zero?!? 😲 That’s NOT a Keto diet! That was HER own custom diet!
@Chubbyemu (Which isn’t every monday)
@RomanoProductions thank you for that because he made it sound like it was the keto diet that was the culprit when in fact keto is very good diet for everyone especially cancer patients to the cancer loves sugar. But they are good carbs and there are toxic carbs stay away from the food pyramid because it should be demolished.
Dude, you are MADE for this! I would watch tv shows of this non-stop. Entertaining AND educational!
keto isnt about having 0 carbs, its about remaining in ketosis which allows for varying lvl of carb intake which is key for insulin feedback loop. 0 carbs is atkins, shame on you chub
sorry this is informative and unbiased if he wants to make it on network television he has to fear monger a little harder and perhaps make a few orange man is bad jokes
@Shady Shades Neebs Gaming ftw..also Epic Nate & Glock 9.
Yo
yeah me too! 😀
mom: puts baby in the fridge and puts yogurt on her eggs
dad: “lol. classic.”
charge him with negligence 🤨
Ha ha ha! Denial is so powerful. If it’s 99% likely the scary thing and 1% likely not the scary thing, a lot of people are going to choose to believe the not scary thing. For years! And this was only days
Yogurt on eggs is good apparently
@Manny Brum what is funny about that just like a man
He sounds like a slap stick kinda guy.
Based on the comments, an incredible amount of people missed what actually happened here. She had a tumor in her pancreas that caused a chronically elevated level of insulin, which was constantly pushing her blood sugar below the normal range. Going keto forced her body to rely entirely on the glucose it produces itself, which your body is normally able to do without problems, especially after it has adapted to using ketones for fuel for most things. Due to the chronic hyperinsulinemia, her body was not able to function normally. Going keto actually revealed an underlying medical condition that otherwise might have gone unnoticed for months or years. I guess there is also a warning here: Sometimes it’s not just keto flu, but actual hypoglycemia.
Emia- meaning presence in the blood
Hypoglycemia is not always caused by insulinoma
@Wayne O’Meara of course… And never by keto if insulin levels remain low (as they should).
@Alan Diego Villalobos People can have insulinomas and never know they have them though. They are mostly benign
Thank you for clarifying. The keto diet isn’t the problem, it exposed the problem.
“Her husband shrugged her attempt to put the baby in the refrigerator as a joke. She was doing weird stuff every morning” I think the husband was really the insane one. WTF???
um yeah, I’d have to agree there
I’m not entirely done with the video as of writing this comment, so I don’t know if this topic was mentioned, but I’ve done research on episodes of mania in women that have recently given birth and things like this happen so so often. It’s due to the surge of estrogen that happens during birth that acts almost like a gateway for mental illness and mania episodes. Estrogen is also very likely to send women into depression and confusion pre-menopause and during menopause. Estrogen levels are supposedly also linked to schizophrenia which is often linked to mania. I suggest you look into it when you can!!
@ohio player1177 can we please stop normalizing men’s incompetence? If he was that incompetent everywhere, he’d never be able to hold down a job. He’s that incompetent at home because he doesn’t care, and he gets away with it. There’s nothing amazing about that.
Fun fact, being suspected of Insulinoma for 4 years, Insulinomas are EXTREMELY hard to find. Many who are diagnosed usually have multiple CTs, MRIs, Endoscopic Ultrasounds, and more. Also, Insulinomas can disguise themselves as reactive hypoglycemia, meaning they arent secreting insulin until carbs are eaten, and then the tumor causes an overreaction of insulin causing sugar to drop. These tumors are debilitating and often cause a complete derailment of ones life until they are found. Doctors are very hesitant to even pursue a diagnosis unless the strict criteria are met, which in many cases one may only have a few of the many symptoms these cause. In fact, I know of one person who lived 20 years with an insulinoma and was only found when her life literally became bed ridden, and found the best NET specialist in Europe.
That’s awful. 😫
I love the way you break down the medical terms. I’ve learned so much.
Emia meaning in blood 👌
I am so happy I am Greek… no need to have any of these simpified! hehehehe
This is a real case of how well married people tend to communicate.
It certainly adds weight to the stereotype of the husband who never listens, and never sees how his wife looks.
*literally seizing and foaming at the mouth*
Husband: “Ha, CLASSIC”
Cindy and Brenda vibes 💀
copied Chris Overcash’s comment
This made me laugh so hard
LMAO
I don’t know why I laughed so hard at this but thank you for existing.
Watching these videos reminds me why Medical terminology is my favorite, and honestly probably the most useful, course I’ve taken in college thus far.
Moral of the Story: Detect pancreatic abnormalities early by starting your 30 day keto diet today!
@Free Julian Assange how is atkins diet less than healthy?
@YouTube Account I get the feeling that many didn’t bother to go past the title and actually watch the video. If they had, they would realize that Keto did not cause the problem. It revealed the problem faster than if she had stayed on the standard high carb diet.
@youdontknowme You don’t know what you are talking about.
Keto diet cuts out PROCESSED CARBS, thats the biggest thing. You get to eat real food. You can eat fruit, but Keto focuses on Protein, Fat, And Vegetables.
The way this mans explains everything perfectly so i can understand without making me feel babied is a true skill no one else has🤣
My husband had this same issue for 7 years doctors in wyoming shrugged it off . finally a move to Idaho and repeated seizures doctors finally figured out it was a non cancerous tumor on his pancreas. When they did the surgery the surgeon said everytime they would press on the tumor it would realse high levels of insulin.
Seven years, and you did nothing? Not buying the claim “doctors did nothing”. Not even slightly.
@P M mom had a similar thing. Sometimes Docs have blind suggestions but not enough clarity to the person to explain what is wrong and how to fix it. For symptoms, Docs offered removing ovaries but not a reason why it was necessary to undergo a major surgery. Then, many years later, new doc gave her a scan and could point it out. Doc said they would not remove her ovaries if they can be saved. The growth was “softball size” and as the doctor moved her ovaries out of the way to get to it they “just fell apart”.
@m f Still not buying it. Doctors are responsible people, and communicate any important information. Unfortunately patients don’t always listen – especially if they don’t like what they’re hearing. Other patients just avoid medical treatment altogether, then blame some doctor in the deep past for not magically guessing everything that might happen in the future.
holy cramoly
Most insulinoma are non cancerous thankfully but they can grow
It’s crazy how doctors prescribe anti-depressants straight away without trying to do a full diagnosis on why are symptoms showing up in the first place.
Drs are taught “think horses not zebras”. The vast majority of cases will be “horses” (PPD) rather than a “zebra”. It’s fair to assume her symptoms were PPD.
@Viys yep
Only in USA
@Viys they always ignore the effing zebras
I had a nervous breakdown, with some very weird physical symptoms. My GP was wise enough to take me off work for 3 months and said go home and sleep and eat as much as you want. I slept literally 3 days and 3 nights.
JC has the worst luck. She’s been in so many of these videos.
Its not the same person he is using names that are the initials
not gonna woosh u cuz im not a filthy redditor but what i am gonna tell you is…
I T W A S A J O K E
😂 😂
I was thinking the same thing!
A person named JC is admitted to the emergency room… this is how they ended up on chubbyemu
@Sprout sprouts a sprout! do ya think? 😋😝😘
“The same episodes would repeat every mornings”
Props to the husband who KNEW this was happening but didn’t immediately rush his wife to the hospital after she tried to PUT HER BABY in the FRIDGE.
…Also props to JC, who literally had already been diagnosed by a doctor, had the EXACT SAME symptoms as before after stopping doctor recommendations, but didn’t think to start them again.
@Owen Toad the video also said, “it was time to ween baby off anyways.” She likely began weening baby off of breast milk when she started her diet. I
But her abs are shredded man! That’s worth a slightly chilled baby, no? 😂
Hindsight is 2020
I definitely have a little more sympathy on JCs side. Outside of health conditions, postnatal changes in mothers are hard. I would be unsurprised if many women make similar self destructive mistakes for the sake of loosing weight, due to the extreme emotional changes and reactions that come with hormones.
Dumb people tend to lose at life
I was in a keto diet for 6 months , i lost 80 LBS, and suddenly my body muscles start twitching without stop. It was a scary experience. I was referred to a neurologist because my PCP suspected I have ALS. I stopped the keto diet and get back to my regular diet, and things start to get better after almost a year. My advice: you want to loose weight, simply EXERCISE and eat healthy.
doesn’t seem like it had anything to do with the keto diet tho
Could’ve possibly been potassium deficiency, a notoriously difficult nutrient to get during keto.
@Owen Toad
It wasn’t, i did a blood works and all minerals and vitamins were ok.
I used to ride my bike up to 50 miles a day before i broke my knee. During the time i was non weight bearing I did not change my eating habits as a result my weight doubled.. I reached a point where i was always hungry even if i just ate. So I got a surgery called a gastric sleeve where most of the stomach is removed.
Immediately following that surgery I went from eating all the time to barely eating at all. It was a HUGE adjustment period for my body. The thing is I am also ADHD and the first really bad hypoglycemic episode I had I was only alerted to because of my cat. She bit me until she yanked me out of my hyperfocus, yelled at me and then led me to the kitchen and yelled at me again.
She alerted me several more times after that as my body adjusted to getting healthier portions of food less often. After a few months I quit having these attacks and I am still doing well.
My cat still takes very good care of me.
Animals can smell high blood glucose. In Sweden we have therapy dogs that can smell high blood glucose, and alert the owner with diabetes. 🇸🇪
And low glucose. The dog can alert the owner about that also, if I remember correctly.
My nephew has type 1diabetes,as does his sister. A few months ago,they got his diabetic alert dog, trained exclusively for his scent…his older sister also has the same diabetes..this smart dog ALSO alerts to high and low blood sugars on his sister,too!!…animals are smart,have scents that are beyond our imaginations..it’s so cool that the cat,untrained, knows and alerts,without training..sometimes we just need to give our fur babies more credit! They are awesomely designed!!!
Man, thanks so much for your videos. I’m taking a lot of bio and chem classes right now, and it’s so awesome to see all the terminology and processes I’ve heard and read come together in these medical examples/scenarios. It’s for real helped me. Thanks again.
I’m a nurse and only recently discovered this channel. I love it! OK, so I’m making guesses already in this case but still watching. My first thought was, of course, ketoacidosis, but there’s no way it’s that simple. Let’s wait for it…
