    Obsessed with Cheese? Why Dairy can be Habit-Forming (Casomorphins)

    Real, full-fat cheese & other dairy has great macros and is a good source of vitamins/minerals. But, it carries an addictive molecule that causes many people to over-eat their satiety hormones. This molecule is know as Casomorphins and is put in the milk to addict her baby to milk, thus ensuring drinking enough to grow and gain weight as fast as possible. This same molecule causes many people to crave cheese/yogurt/milk and causes them to eat too much food. Some research shows that Raw Milk causes less craving from the casomorphins... Keep in mind, this affects some more than others (normal distribution curve), but for some folks (including me) cheese is a problem. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0308814620316277 https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/10942912.2012.712077#d1e158 https://academic.oup.com/nutritionreviews/advance-article/doi/10.1093/nutrit/nuae099/7716583 https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/agricultural-and-biological-sciences/casomorphin https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8345738/ Join our COMMUNITY Support & Knowledge: phdhealth.community Proper Human Diet principles video: https://youtu.be/jwagCofBDj8 Proper Human Diet GUIDEBOOK: https://www.drberry.com/guidebook MINERAL Drops: https://saltt.com/ref/DrB (discount) LIES MY DOCTOR TOLD ME: https://amzn.to/2XvNNZm KICKING ASS AFTER 50 book: https://amzn.to/3LMj1ny COMMON SENSE LABS book: https://amzn.to/45rZ9NM PHD Merch: https://www.drberry.com/shop (T-Shirts, Tanks, Hoodies, etc) Holiday KETO Cookbook: https://bit.ly/ourholidaycookbook Great Keto Recipes: https://cookingketowithfaith.com/ Eat Real MEAT: https://bit.ly/USmeatDiscount (discount = BERRY) Pluck Organ Seasonings code = DRKEN for 25% off https://eatpluck.com Support Our Mission: phdhealth.community LMNT electrolytes: drinklmnt.com/Neisha (free gift) Our Farm Channel: @drberryfarms Neisha’s Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@NeishaSalasBerry Best JERKY I’ve tasted: https://matthatjerky.com/?ref=_vgzta3eC0uNy Awesome Coffee roasted in Tennessee: https://hollerroast.com/?ref=keto (discount) Disclaimer: Nothing in this video is Medical Advice.

    Food Pyramid: Good, Bad, and the Ugly

    The new 2026 food pyramid is out, and a lot of people are misunderstanding what it’s actually saying. In this video, I walk through it piece by piece and explain how the guidelines are meant to be read, not just how they look on paper. We sort foods into the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly, talk about what the experts got right, where they missed the mark, and how those mistakes contribute to people feeling tired, hungry, and metabolically unhealthy. This isn’t about being perfect or afraid of food. It’s about understanding how these recommendations are written and learning to think for yourself instead of following advice that hasn’t worked for most people. Once you see it clearly, making better choices for your blood sugar and long-term health becomes much simpler.

    Keto/Carnivore on a BUDGET with Dr. Mark Cucuzzella

    You can enjoy all the benefits of a low-carb, keto, or carnivore diet on a budget! Dr C gives lots of tips/trick on how to eat cheap keto and/or cheap carnivore on the daily. If you're on a fixed income or money is tight you can still feed yourself the proper human diet on a budget from discount grocery stores where ever you live. Dr. Mark Cucuzzella, Air Force Reserve Lieutenant Colonel (ret), practices at the Veterans Administration Hospital in Martinsburg, West Virginia. As a Professor as West Virginia University School of Medicine , Mark developed and adopted an inpatient protocol for using a low-carb diet for patients with obesity, prediabetes, and type 2 diabetes. Practicing what they preach, the hospital eliminated all sugar-sweetened beverages from the hospital. Mark was instrumental in bringing MEDCHEFS to the WVU School of Medicine in 2013 with a focus on understanding insulin resistance. An advocate for evidence based policy and education, Mark is a founding member of The Nutrition Coalition, a board member of The Society of Metabolic Health Practitioners and The Hypoglycemia Foundation and is a scientific advisor for Diet Doctor. Mark’s current research interests are diabetes remission, the use of continuous glucose monitors, and carbohydrate reduction for severe pediatric obesity. He also leads a clinical group "International Multidisciplinary Diabetes Remission Working Group" who just completed a textbook chapter for Ketogenics on medication reduction in Type 2 diabetes adapted from the article Adapting Medication for Type 2 Diabetes to a Low Carbohydrate Diet. He lives in Shepherdstown, West Virginia where he also owns a small community running store and directs running races and camps for youth and adults. His book “Run For Your Life” summarizes the science and the soul of running, nutrition, and physical activity to help you maintain a vigorous life.
