03:38 FENUGREEK
With trace nutrients (iron, manganese, copper) and a variety of antioxidants, fenugreek is a wonderful keto herb.
In a study published in the Journal of Diabetes and Metabolic Disorders, it was also observed that the control ground had a “4.2 times higher chance of developing type-2 diabetes compared to subjects in the fenugreek group.” https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/arti…
04:50 CLOVES
Consuming cloves can help stop sugar cravings as well. In a study, 30 type-2 diabetics were given capsules containing zero, one, two or three grams of cloves each day for a month to observe their serum glucose levels.
Researchers of the study suggested that consuming one to three grams of cloves per day is beneficial for type-2 diabetics to better manage their glucose and total cholesterol levels.” https://www.organicauthority.com/ener…

In several human studies American ginseng lowered blood sugar levels in people with type-2 diabetes. The blood sugar lowering effect was seen both on fasting blood sugar and on postprandial (after eating) glucose levels. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/arti…
Drink ginseng tea before or after your keto meals.
06:40 L-GLUTAMINE
L-glutamine calms the part of your brain that lights up when you experience a sugar/carb craving. It turns out, sugar is as addicting as cocaine, and some say sugar is 8 times more addicting then cocaine. Wow.
Take 500mg of l-glutamine powder, up to 3 times each day. I recommend this one: http://bit.ly/2ZGB2sE

When your sleep suffers, your blood sugars increase. Sleep deprivation can cause you to have the blood sugars of a type 2 diabetic. Yikes.
