Grassfed and grass FINISHED meat is NOT lower in fat than feedlot finished meat. Not if it is being done properly. With deepest appreciation to Dr. Phinney, we would like to send him a steak and a lamb chop from 100% grassfed and grass FINISHED, and bet he would find them higher in fat than any other beef or lamb he has eaten in the USA that was finished in a feedlot. However, the fatty acid profile of the fat in 100% grassfed meats is different from the fat in feedlot finished meat that eats a lot of rain and soy. D. Paul Mason points this out near the end of this presentation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NUY_SDhxf4k
In the 70’s we also started to not feed our babies breast milk for long enough. The rates have never recovered. I think it’s significant in the obesity epidemic also. The overuse of infant formula products aka the first processed food.. Someone please study this!
You are a good man, Dr Gary, and smarter than you say 😉 God bless you!!!!
I disagree with many on here; I think the interviewer was fine. Thanks.
This is fascinating, an explanation of how at one time people would store food.
17:40 They were consuming the adrenal glands of their ruminant kills. No scurvy since that is where vit c is concentrated.
Just ignore big time the medical complex and all those internal injuries from meds even OTC. Naw, it’s just your food, glutton is obvious, NO is carbohydrates.
Please Andreas: let him speak and stop interrupting when he talks.
Would you please define “room temperature”? My coconut oil is liquid in the summer, but very, very solid in winter. All indoors, stored in a cool dark shelf.
Low carb high protein will trigger insulin to keep you fat. Only 4-6oz of meat is required
Just water fast 24-48 hours and you can enter ketosis so it’s not hard getting your body to adapt. Even adding some keystone powder can help also
Great talk… really appreciate the comment about antibiotics mucking up our mitochondria… I wouldn’t have thought antibiotics could get at them (don’t antibiotics work on bacteria among our cells, not in them?)… so that’s a whole new area of thought to investigate.
Nearly everyone forgets that humans most everywhere around the world have access to foods our ancestors did not. Not just highly processed foods… but also the tortillas and the beets and carrots Wolf mentions were available only ‘a wink of an eye’ ago, in evolutionary terms.
It does not take a genius or an advanced college degree to check out the wild ancestors of domesticated plants now common in our diets. Wild wheat and wild corn, from which the tortilla is made, are excellent examples. Those species, and others like beets and carrots, were smaller and contained a lot less starch (chains of sugar molecules) and sugar than the domesticated cultivars (cultivated varieties) and they had lower yields. Pull up a Queen Anne’s Lace plant and compare that to the carrots from your garden or the supermarket, for instance.
The changes in fruits larger, sweeter, longer bearing seasons may be even more dramatic.
AND those foods were not available in either the abundance or as constantly all year long as grains, high-starch vegetables, and sugary fruits are now. Early humans, according to anthropologists, tended to live and migrate along ocean shores and rivers where food was most always abundant, food that was a good source of protein and high in fat. The evidence is clear, as well, that our so-called ‘primitive’ ancestors tended to hunt large mammals to extinction. (This may be due, at least in part, to the practice of driving entire herds over cliffs, as it is difficult to impossible to single out one animal from a herd if one is on foot.) After the depletion of game animals in a region, farming of grains and other starchy foods became common. Note also that traditional hunters, like predators, eat the organs and the fat first, and eat the muscle later… or leave it for scavengers if they can find more prey.
We tend to forget the once common knowledge that animals were preferentially hunted, and farmed animals later were harvested, when they were fattest.
It is not disputed that humans have no need for dietary carbohydrates. Or that humans will die without a minimum of certain fats, though the general public seems unaware of these things. Paleoanthropologists can tell almost at a glance whether ancient human remains came from a person who was from a ‘hunter-gatherer’ or farming culture because of the physical development and better teeth. See ‘Nutrition and Physical Degeneration’ by Weston A Price, ‘Paleopathology and the Origins of the Paleo Diet’ by Dr. Michael Eades on YouTube, and ‘The Case for Nutritional Ketosis’ by Dr. Stephen Phinney, PD also on YouTube for more info.
We do not have to go 2 million years ago to settle any debates. We could probably go to remote/deep jungles (“relatively” untouched by the “advanced” humanity) across the globe, and study their (tribal) food habits vs their standard of health. This might give us a clue. Their food probably would consist of what is immediately and easily accessible to them….and effectively cultures are built around food.
Yeah and a spoiler Alert!: People doing Keto or thinking of doing Keto, you are probably not going to like this video.
I have been doing Keto + IF for a few weeks now and have seen some extremely good results. BUT, i am really open to all reasonable debates and discussion around nutrition and diets in general. So this video makes it to my list of bookmarked videos (and i swear, i did not thumbs down this video:-).
Are these comments what prompted you to hire Dr. Scher to do the interviews? If so, (or even if not,) kudos. He is a huge asset to your channel, which is one of the best on YouTube.
I love listening to Phinney, but aI could not handle the constant interruptions!
LCHF /carnivore is the best lifestyle! No grains, no potatoes, no fruits and no added sugars!
He says we need a better way to diadnose T2 Diabetes, so I guess he is unaware of the work of Joseph Kraft. I hope he catches on.
BS… I’ve been fat adapted to where I haven’t been knocked out of ketosis from eating high carbs for a day, weekend, or even after eating carbs for a week on vacation. I test my blood with a Keto Mojo. My ketones may go down, but still in ketosis and I jump back to high ketosis within a day or two. I do one meal a day intermittent fasting.
Thank you so much. I have failed terribly on Keto diet. I see now I need more healthy fats and not so much protein.
Really exhausted right now. Will watch again after a good sleep. Again thank you so much for this information. God bless you from southern Indiana.
Pat
does it affect you if you eat 1 cup of potato chips a month??
The Inuit example doesn’t show ketosis isn’t the best metabolic process… it shows it isn’t the best process for surviving in the cold (perhaps). It’s also a strange claim to say the body “tries to get out of ketosis.” Why not just say the body turns it off when it can in order to prime it for use later? Ketosis optimizes your chance of survival when food is scarce… preserves muscle, aids endurance / persistence hunting, even spares glycogen in muscles for bursts of speed. Eating, any eating, probably turns it off (unless you precisely match starvation macros), because eating isn’t just your chance to get all your nutrients, but it’s your chance to store fat for ketosis again. Evolutionarily, feasting and fasting was the normal diet, and so it makes some sense to say there’s no such thing as an optimal diet for people who eat constantly. I don’t see how it follows from any of that that ketosis isn’t our best metabolic condition. Flexibility has WHAT value in an environment like our modern one?
Suggest your viewers also look at Dr Rhonda Patrick lecture series on diets and epigenetics and their relationship. This biochemist gives you the in depth science behind this topic.
When the host talks, it wastes that time that we could be hearing wisdom.
Is the interviewer a vegan???
On you tube there is a spoof of a dog who wants a kitten. That’s this interviewer…go listen to it.
This interviewer is such an irritatant, like a fly buzzing around the room.
Is there any evidence that the Inuit can’t enter ketosis other than what he presented? Has anyone actually taken Inuit populations and tried to get them into a ketotic state and failed?
This is not a new theory. There was. Study in 2002 that basically said this except it also considered b12 and folate.
Caribou meat is always lean-even in the autumn. Never higher than 2% fat. It would be hard to harvest a small amount of caribou fat even in August or September.
Your’s is a beautiful base voice that is very distinct and served you well in the presentation you made on Ketosis that is highlighted on your website. In this case however, your affirming “um’s and uh huhs making hearing Dr. Phinney difficult and render the interview almost incomprehensible. I recommend the Diet Doctor web site to a lot of people on my list of books and sites to visit if they want to learn about Keto. You may wish to brush up on your interviewing skills and start again, and possibly edit yourself out along with the moments that Phinney is confused by your questions in this video to make this a better presentation. Good luck. I appreciate what you’re doing.
He is a fine and sympathetic interviewer, why you people have always to critisize?? YOU are the rude ones!!!
Low Carb may work for most people but it causes severe anxiety on me.
How long does it take to see an improvement in blood pressure? Does it only go down if you loose a lot of weight?
Of all the keto diet advocates he’s the best.i’ve watched some of his videos and he explained keto so well.i followed his advice and didnt count calories and i saw changes in my body.the only problem is i think i overdid it.coz my body somehow was in shock of this hi fat thing.coz i find myself sometimes dizzy and out of breath.
Good talk! but those who were once obsessively counting calories…and now carbs, will be in a fine rage.
I thought that if you eat the organs especially the thymus gland you could get all the vitamins and minerals you need. Atleast thats what I heard during a lecture. Also heard what Phinney mentions about fresh meat having vitamin C
You keep interrupting the guy all the time, why don’t you just ask a question and let him talk? You don’t have to say something after every single sentence.
Hi Robb Wolf, Very interesting talk but disappointed that the references mentioned 16 minutes 15 seconds are not available from your website. Also really surprised that no one else has has assumed these references?
The interviewer sounds like Jaws from the James Bond movies.
Why do innuits or eskimo people live so shortly? what is the avarage life expectancy on this diet? refferences say it’s about 40-50.
I never did get the keto flu, but, I also have had my blood glucose taken after having a sugary beverage from Starbucks (before I changed up my diet)… and it didn’t seem to really be impacted as significantly as expected by that either. Wonder if there’s a connection?
Once again, this guy is trying to cash on the knowledge of real experts. Fortunately, one can find better videos of Stephen Phinney without listening to this Swedish clown.
I’m not sure why everyone is reacting so negatively to Dr. Eenfeldt’s interviewing technique, but if you found it annoying and would like to hear Dr. Phinney uninterrupted, look for his many lectures on the Low Carb Down Under channel. He usually speaks at their conferences, so there are quite a few of his lectures on their channel to choose from.
It’s too bad cutting out processed foods can’t stop the lip smacking from continually distracting from the talk
This is one of the first interviews done by the interview who is doctor. He was not versed in this skill at that time. So many people are getting emotional over his interactions with Dr. Phinney
Second speaker in this channel that’s starts off saying they had food poisoning
Joel Wallach has been talking about all this for 30+ years. Glad to see someone is catching up.
The late Dr. Robert Atkins pioneered the low carb/ketogenic diet in the late 80’s to early nineties, and everyone made him out to be a fraud/quack.
The cause of heart attacks is insulin resistance not cholesterol,
KALP HASTALIKLARININ SEBEBİ KAN YAĞLARI DEĞİL İNSÜLİN DİRENCİDİR http://ahmetrasimkucukusta.com/2019/06/10/yazilar/tip-yazilari/kolesterol/kalp-hastaliklarinin-sebebi-kan-yaglari-degil-insulin-direncidir/
def the first time going into ketosis was by far the worst for me. Subsequent times were easier and then after switching from low carb to carnivore the last 4 mos the transitions are seamless. I ate mostly SAD over the last 2 weeks for holidays, but I’m winding down day 2 back on carnivore and nothing. Actually I felt amazing today. The human body is amazing!
Those refine carbs lacks a lot of fiber! Here in the Philippines, we eat rice & root crops. When eating carbs, make sure to eat carb sources that are rich in resistant starch. Or eat lots of fibrous foods together with your rice in a meal.
How controlled were these test subjects? I know if I run to the lab before a glucose tolerance test my numbers would be a lot lower.
On min 13 he suggested that you can get out of Ketosis in one 25 grams of carbs. Every person is different and they have different threshold with regards to carbs and Ketosis. So far not fully impressed by it. But I always see it to the end.
Are the non-westernized babies born in ketosis like westernized babies? If so, it would seem to be the default setting for all. Medicine says fat is important to babies. Eating fat (cream, Irish butter, Irish cheese I live in the US deep south) but have Irish ancestors Erin go Bragh) and fasting (chicken bone broth) has been slowly reversing my blood sugar numbers (2 years) while I consume MY fat (reduction in weight and body composition). I recently upped my meat consumption resulting in higher blood sugar and for longer than 2 hours. I cannot eat any significant amount of carbs because I need my insulin to process my meat. I will not waste my insulin on carbs. I’m making new dark hairs in my all gray head. Two years ago I felt half dead and seeing new life in my hair is frankly amazing. I’m 60+ and gray for 30 years.
If I could buy cream from Ireland I would. Better yet I wish I could move there.
I so wish I had found all of this years ago. If I had known what I know now I could have gotten healthier in 2011. I started full keto November 20th 2017 and have lost 50lbs over all since November 2015. Not having the education I needed, I have lost a total of 75lbs since November 2015…now have just a few more to my goal weight. Loving life and how I feel. My husband by osmosis has lost 45lbs since January 2018 ❤❤❤ Thank you Diet Doctor!
The diet Dr is talking about how people ate years ago when hunting, all of the meat etc…but people were very active back then,no tv surfing or sitting for hours at a time. Also people actually did not live past 40 years of age back then lol
I appreciate, and really find your interviews informative, but please, stop interrupting your guest. It is so hard to watch. Please let your guest speak.
He claims it takes 2-4 weeks to re-adapt after taking a short “carb holiday”. This seems contrary to current popular practice. Since this interview is 6 years ago I wonder if anyone has more info on this aspect of the keto diet, specifically from a scientific viewpoint. I doesn’t make any sense to me that it would take that long to readapt even if you ate carbs for a week as it takes 2-4 weeks for the metabolic changes to happen when switching fuel sources.
Was there a typo on the Power Point slide @ 18:00? Wasn’t it supposed to read: Uric Acid Inhibits Nitric Oxide? Nevertheless, Fettke gives a great lecture here. I love this guy! For anyone who would like to convince their friends who still want to believe that fruit is a “health food,” just tell them to Google search images of “wild fruits and vegetables” or “what fruits and vegetables looked like before human intervention.” If THAT’S what they believe will sustain a human diet, then good luck with that! LOL
Dr. Berstein’s program should be required learning in every medical professional’s career that deal with diabetes!
T1D 43 years, pumper, 10 yrs LHCF
I wish I’d have seen this lecture about 20 years ago. Poor diet, poor posture and bad running form gave me coronary artery disease, two ruptured lumbar discs and type 2 diabetes and several miserable years as a “fat” but active middle aged man.
I found low carb, healthy fat diet advise first and lost 50 lbs and paritally reversed my diabetes. I’m trying to regain my running fitness now. I’ll never be able to eat refined carbs without blood sugar spikes, but that’s OK, they’re not necessary.
Thank you for your wok. Will you PLEASE STOP INTERRUPTING YOUR INTERVIEWEES? If NOT for the sake of us wearied listeners alone, or even for the sake of your guests but for the sake of YOUR OWN CAREER? Great information, great guests, Just use the “less is more” approach BEING QUIET while the guest is speaking, maybe follow the examples of Mike Wallace or Barbara Walters. No wheels to invent here and elegantly simple: anything you don’t hear them to, don’t do it. Anything you DO hear them do, AVOID doing it any more frequently. You might take note that interrupting people is often a sign of insecurity and most definitely signals that you’re not fully listening. Lastly, ALWAYS say “thank you”, not “thanks”. Thank you again for your work!
The interviewer may be annoying but overall so far so good for me.
Are there some 90+ years old keto followers you can show us so we can see how they’re doing?
My daughter is going to need jaw surgery in the summer. How can she stay on her keto diet only eating liquid or soft foods for 6 weeks during her recovery?
Wow, this man has some very important information for us all
I wish I`d known about the “fizy unique plan” sooner! (Google it) I actually would`ve dropped 14 lbs years ago. It is best to check it out on google!
fastest runners in the world are all keto..oh hang on no they are NOT! xD
NOBODY taken me up on my keto marathon challenge. Why is that? Even Zach Bitter admits he smashes in the carbs and is sponsored by a sugar company for gels etc.
Information is great but I wished that the interviewer would have kept his mouth SHUT! It was hard to hear the information with interviewer commenting continuously over Dr. Phinney.
I’ve been “fat adapted” for a few years now and it just keeps getting better and better. I beat a running distance personal record today (18 miles with 2000ft of gain) running on fat. My pre-run “meal” was pecans, exogenous ketones, water, a cordyceps mushroom supplement and I loaded up on electrolytes. During the run was just water. Just like usual, there was no hunger, no bonk, no cramps or inflammation. I just cruised and enjoyed the trail. Nice video Sir.
Paula Newby-Fraser, 8time IM Hawaii winner and 11-time medalist, consumed upwards of 300-350 calories/hr for her tiny frame. Not sure how much of that was carbs, but I’d venture to say a majority.. Definitely fat adaptation or fat flexibility has its place. Elite endurance athletes have known this for a long time; I used to run fasted a lot during my competitive years, but most of my diet was still carbohydrates. Most elite endurance athletes and the BEST ones are vegan and/or high carb, and I’m speaking from personal experience as well as speaking from the experience of many of my friends who are elite cyclists, runners, duathletes, and triathletes.. PS. I get that the majority of people are not elite endurance athletes..
I closed the video after 30 seconds. This is absolutelly TERRIBLE interview and doesn’t do the brilliant dr. Phinney any justice.
In Finland we used call diabetes a sugar illness. But it was not considered politically correct, because it assumed guilt. What a disservice, since it is the most approprite name. Hunter gatherers did not have diabetes, because the sugars they had available never exceeded the safe levels for anyone.
Humans are genetically wired for hunting and gathering, which will naturally be higher in protein and fat, and lower in carbs.
An amazing presentation! Ketogenic lifestyle is life-changing
I have a question that’s been bugging me for a while now so i hope someone can clarify. Quite simply the question is:
Is Ketosis dependant on the percentage calories you get from things or is ketosis dependent on the grammage of carbohydrates (and to a lesser extent protein)?
The reason i ask this is because i have been tested to have a very low resting metabolic rate (RMR) of around 1000 calories (about half of a normal person my age, gender and weight). My target calorie intake is therefore much lower than most people and is currently 1200 calories per day. In order to not lose muscle mass (i weight train 5 days a week) i eat 0.8g/lb of lean muscle mass which equates to 130g of protein per day. My carb intake is 20g of carb (max). This leaves me with 68g of fats to get to my 1200 calorie target.
The above is based on grammage. However, if one were to consider the above in terms of percentages, my protein intake is 43%, my carb intake is 7% and my fat intake is 50%.
So which is it, grammage or %?????
he is awesome so wonderful having a runners point of view! I am a keto runner!
Avoid sugar and a diet high in carbs. Easy
Why not give the liver and pancreas a rest; throw in avoid alcohol too.
Good pesentation from a different point of view. However, I would like to debate a few topics that Robb made. First is that the fruits & vegetables today are not same as what they were thousands/millions of years ago. Humans have hybrodized and cross-bred them to be bigger, sweeter, less toxic to make them palatable for profit.
Second, based on Dr Paul Saladino whom I agree with, carbohydrate is not and was not found on every part of the world where humans roam. The macros that were avaiable for consumption in every part of the world is only fat & protein. Therefore, it can be concluded that there is no such thing as an essential carbohydrate. The liver can make glucose on demand via gluconeogenesis when it needs to. On the flip side, there are essentials in fats and proteins that humans cannot exist without. Some may argue that there are micronutrients and other nutrients required in plants, but the fact is that everything we need can be found in meats (and in larger quantities). Low carb is an option for those who still prefer to eat plants not a necessity.
Third, Robb did not mention plant toxins and proteins that cause cognitive, digestive, and metabolic problems for not only humans but for most animals. These are defenses that plants evolved to protect themselves from being eaten and to become extinct.
Forth point, according to Dr. Cywes whom I also agree with, he stated that any modern diet that requires supplementing is an incomplete diet. Humans should be able to get all nutrients and essentials from food intake. Supplements are produced primarily for profit. Should an apocalypse occur it would be difficult to buy Omega-3 and B-complex supplements.
And lastly, I had heard from other presenters that the Inuit people, they primarily consumed the animal fat, organs, some meat. The lean meat they would feed that to their dogs. I could be wrong on this last point as this was just I can recall from other lectures that I watched.
So maybe the “common thread” for all of the “primitive-but-healthy” cultures is a lack of antibiotics consumption?
The devil’s advocate test: what would they have done differently if the medical profession were actively trying to kill you without obviously withholding insulin?
Pushing lots of carbs and lots of insulin to keep the victim, er, patient in a constant state of whipsaw blood sugar is great for the revenue of pharma companies, not very good for the patients.
Whatever happened to the simple pragmatism of “Doctor, it hurts when I do this…” “SO DON’T DO THAT.”?
So in the keep eating beginning of a ketogenic diet if we have 40 to 50 pounds to lose should we start with less than 7075 80% of our intake fats or should we just keep it at about 75% fat. I know that I have a lot of fat to lose but if I’m putting in so much fat is it burning the food fat or the fat in my body
I enjoyed the interview; it was like listening in on a conversation, with normal responses from interviewer— His comments were a normal exchange as in “I’m paying attention…”
Thank you!
Oddly enough I was a type 2 diabetic a year ago so I went on a calorie strict diet some change was seen but not good enough western diet of course then I went paleo for 3 and 1/2 months more change was seen but still not good enough my response to any extra carbs still drove my blood glucose up to the 180’s for up to 3 hours YIKES! Then I went carnivore Keto it’s been 6 months and a week and I’ve carb loaded 4 times for one day each in the last month just like the other “calorie controlled western diet and paleo” I was formerly on but know my blood glucose will only rise to 122 within 2 hours max and back to normal 95ish within the 3rd hour I so happy my pancreas and liver are doing what their supposed to do I’m assuming my Beta cells are back online fully? FYI my carb loading on all these test consisted of bread, cake, ice cream, candy of some kind and approximately 200 carbs that day of testing and I consumed these carbs all within the hour one side note when I do this now I get one hell of a headache and feel brian fog almost like being hung over most of the next day and ketones are reading lite on the urine stick but by the 2 nd day I’m back in full ketosis it used to take me about 3 to 4 days to get back into ketosis.
6:08 I highly doubt Doritos would have admitted to the fact they use power law to formulate their product.
Isn’t it a given companies are super secretive when it comes to how they come up with their product?
How interesting that, since I stopped eating all processed and hyper-palatable ‘foods’ (more than 2 years ago) I no longer overeat or binge or ever have the urge to do so. Nowadays I eat a couple of meals a day that are (a) a good protein: meat/offal, fish, egg, cheese (b) cooked with a good unprocessed fat: lard, butter, cream, avocado/coconut/olive oil with (c) low carb veg on the side. I have NEVER felt better and more stable in weight and mood. The improvement in mood was one side effect I didn’t expect. That food industry admit to searching for and developing hyper-palatable ‘foods’ to sell to unsuspecting population that is detrimental to their health is shocking but not surprising. It is the elephant in the room, or rather, the obese human in the room that is told to “move more and eat less” when in fact all they need to do is to stop eating the processed ‘foods’ and switch to real unprocessed nutrient-dense food.
Could have been said in ten minutes. Good conclusions just…too wordy….wonder what is the optimum diet for people not talking too much. One of the monitors of illness of our world….how many thousands of words can we deliver to say something that should be one minute…into 100 minutes.
Great interview! So fascinating about Aboriginal Culture etc. Phinney said for his diet he eats between 25-50 carbs a day. Did he mean net or total carbs? Also, I thought one would go out of Ketosis at 50grams of carbs. Is that because he has been on for so long and so others would have the same ‘increase’ in carb allowance if they were keto adapted like he discusses, or is that 50 grams just specific to his body and thus everyone is different depending on their system? Thanks so much!
“We can’t wait for Government to change Policy”,… WTF?.. I don’t want Government involved in making Food Policy!
God bless her, but some one for the love of God teach her how to pronounce insulin!! Or should I say inshuslin.
On minute 14 he said that protein can kick you out of Ketosis without proof!!!
good God just let the man talk you are so annoying!!! shut up!!!!!
Another food expert who’s perpetually recovering from sickness..
Thanks a lot doctor for this info. It was delivered in a simple manner.
Opinion on carrots and potatoes which are real food? Can they be eaten in moderation or just avoid?
To reduce inflammations is good but what about to find the cause of inflammation and to eliminate it and inflammation will be prevented and cured if it happen. The science book provides the dots for such a research, one dated 2000 years ago. I connected all those dots and I found a solution to prevent inflammations. In 1950 in England was found that a tissue having 35 C instead of 37C and slightly acidic ph. may get a viral infection which will trigger a body response as inflammation. The book also say that body temperature is a measure of the heat produced in the body minus the heat lost to environment. To increase the cells temperature to prevent inflammation we shall do activity/exercise and to prevent our body to lose heat. The simple way to prevent our body to lose heat is to use proper/warm clothes. I found special clothes capable to do so and the body cells will have a proper temperature to prevent infections/inflammations. All diseases have the major cause that loss of heat and I can give you details about my solution if you’ll write on my email davidmuresan@ live.com
The manufacture of pig insulin was the worst thing for diabetics. Prior to this Diabetes was managed via a Ketogenic diet. My eldest sister born 1945 was T1D. Insulin meant that eating tons of carbs was ok, just measure your insulin to match. She went blind, renal failure and died aged 32, 40 years ago now. Nobody told her or the parents about various diets. Just use insulin.
Really Great, but we want the whole three hours. And, thank you for your work.
something that is missing is this low-car stuff is “food combining” eat protein and it takes 4 hours to digest in the stomach, east starch and it hangs around in the stomach 3 hoursmix them in the same meal and the food hangs round in the stomach for 8 hours plus and rots lot of very good benefits to “Food combining”: eating protein & starches separately and les faddy and so easier to maintain longer term
OMG stop interrupting, I left at 11:01, he does not need you interjecting anything.!
I wish I would have discovered this before the age of 49. I have lost out on so, so much in life.
Regarding Justin’s Almond Butter at 19:17, better to get 100% almond butter from Trader Joe’s as Justin’s has palm oil in it.
so disappointed liars like you can spew this crap! oh you were literally talking about spewing crap..your meat eating lies…BOUGHT AND PAID FOR..THATS YOU!!
In order to obtain the metabolic flexibility which I think is optimal, many people who are broken by decades of metabolic gang rape need to use IF and ketosis to push the reset button. I kind of aim to be able to handle all kinds of macros, as long as they come from whole foods (that’s the central point); but first I need to fix a lot of issues.
Aside from the Inuit, there were other populations around the world who lived on diets that were virtually or completely free of plants. These including the plains Indians (called ‘a people “en Dios ‘ by Columbus 250 years before Hindustan was called India), and the Masai. Nomadic herders in Northern Africa, and across the Middle East, reindeer herders, the Mongolian herders these people lived primarily on the meat and milk of their animals. Plants tended to be used as seasoning or medicine.
Unfortunately there is not enough good food grown or on the hoof to feed the population. The supply chain isn’t in place to provide fresh food, refrigerate and sell to the consumer.
Every time I listen to one of your presentations I learn so much more about living a healthier and more active lifestyle. Thank you for inspiring me, and so many others, to be the best we can possibly be!
Why is how you feel subjectively not adequate in determining a diet’s appropriateness for an individual?
really annoying to watch this with the interviewer going, yeah, yea, right, yeah, right, yeah, yea. SHUT UP.
corporations are only interested in profits..any means necessary..even if their own children are 400 lbs..no matter.
Dr. Phinney’s talk about consuming large amounts of fats reminds me of a calypso from St. Vincent that says “Ah want a piece of pork for me Christmas, I don’t want no calaloo (spinach) etc,etc, then back to the refrain: “ah want a piece of pork……………
Oh please who is interviewing whom. I came across this interviewer before, hms, Interuptions. Please remind him of his lack of listening skills.
This interviewer would rather interview himself than his guests…and I base that on several interviews I’ve seen. Stop interrupting people or start your own podcast.
Fantastic. I can see a future where those with the inclination will really be able to dial in there health with genetics, gut biome etc. The 1.5hr version of this presentation would be great to see
I do Low Carb but not Keto. On most days I’m near Keto range just above or below 50 carbs. But my goal is to stay below 100 though cause I want to be able to stick to it long term. I’m not interested in worrying about staying in Ketosis. If I go above 100 once or twice a month then it’s all good. I Just make sure to keep it to that one day. I was going to Taco Bell before and eating 300 carbs in one visit then probably eating 300 carbs the rest of the day too. Have lost 60 lbs over the last 6 months while becoming more muscular via weight training. Way more energy then I used to have.
Wow, I’ve listened to Robb on and off for a couple of years but this was his most fascinating talk. Much of this information and thought is new to me and I really appreciate both him and LCDU sharing.
So stoked to have found this. Thanks LCDU. Keep your videos coming. Lets change how people eat and age. BTW, a link to the video Rob mentions at 1m in would be appreciated. (Found it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TXlVfwJ6RQU )
great talk. i have also found many similar things in electronics like his comparison. for example, when rechargable batteries lose their performance, it is from high internal resistance. it’s very similar to a diabetic who is resistant to carbs. even the graphs of this look the same
4:04 re: Inuits, *I was unaware the Inuits were a blue zone group, go to Google it and find out I want aware because they aren’t.
They have a life expectancy a full 10 years shorter than the average Canadian who eats the standard Western diet.
Just over 4 minutes in and the speaker is already debunked with a quick Google search.
Excellent info. I’ve been doing keto for 6 months. I lost 36lbs and feel great
Thanks for an excellent presentation. Dr Bernstein’s book transformed my diabetes management, even though I do not follow his dietary rules to the letter. My HBA1c has been around 4.5% for quite a few years now. I have had type 1 for fifty four years, and have hardly any complications. Making one’s diabetes management into a hobby helped me a great deal!
I’ve heard of most athletes “carb loading” before their workout. Maybe I’m doing something wrong, but I get up, first thing in the morning and go do my miles, as many as I want, all on fat. At 62, I think I’m doing okay. But I don’t understand what the carb loading is all about. The only reason I can’t keep going is my knees, and it’s only because I got heavy (which is going away).
And one night, still on a 36-hour fast, on the keto diet, I showed up at the gym and hopped on the tread mill, next to some friends who thought I was nuts. I said, “I feel great! I can keep going!”
The only big thing I’ve had to take into account is “saltwater loading,” which is table salt and potassium, in two tall glasses of water. Which seems to hold me for at least a couple of hours (some bottled water after that, without salts). It was thanks to one of Stephen Phinney’s lectures that I discovered the potassium problem (my BP had gotten too high, along with my heart rate). When I dropped so many carbs, I also lost my main sources of potassium.
I’m so lucky to have Olivia as my GP. Going Keto has changed my life, and I know I won’t go back to my old ways of eating. It’s only been six weeks or so for me, but I feel a million times better for it.
This isn’t regarding content of the video but if you’re going to have an intro animation, please don’t let it be absolutely silent. It makes annoying for the viewer to have to either watch through the entire thing first before adjusting their sound levels or (what I had to do) fast forward to a random point, adjust my sound levels, and then rewind to before the start of the content before I could walk away from my computer. I don’t know if it’s just me but I don’t like starting videos feeling like it’s a movie horror scene where something is going pop out with loud noises from the silence.
What about korapilado? I think it’s the most anti inflammatory food ever. Any thoughts?
nitric oxide inhibits nitric oxide? Ok, you lost me, must be a typo.
When you speak of fructose you mean it separated from the fruit fiber/pulp itself? Or fructose as contained in the whole fruit?
Hypothesis, or uneducated guess. Zero research in this talk. Lame.
The wonderful, inspiring Dr Richard Bernstein! I have read his bio and how he came to be a doctor. It is fascinating! The facebook group Typeonegrit is full of people of all ages who have transformed their lives through following his low carb protocols. Please take a look for yourself.
26:50 carb intolerance yes, and I would add alcohol intolerance. As a low carber for three and a half years so far, I do not drink more than one glass of alcoholic beverage in an evening (either a full-bodied red wine, prosecco or a straight vodka over ice if you’re asking) because it does go straight to my head (I am a cheap date nowadays because as well as only having one drink last all night, I do not need to have a starter or dessert when eating out). It is interesting about keeping protein moderate but this does make sense. Fat affects blood sugars hardly any and it also has the effect of producing satiety, hence me being able to eat within an 18/6 window. I just ensure that the fat I eat is predominantly animal-based and unprocessed (but I do use an organic unrefined coconut oil or olive oil too, which are both fruit oils). I am unsure why there are ANY dislikes for this lecture, if you disagree with it, please do post why.
I love the low carb, but to say native peoples didn’t eat berries, wild rice and other stuff, you are full of crap and are actually denying actual history. It’s the processed non-natural food is bad.
Dear Diet Doctor Interviewer: I watched another interview you conducted with the Doctor in the blue dress/suit. Forgive me, I did not record her name, but I enjoyed the interview thoroughly and gained some very good insights from it. She kept saying, “You;re a doctor…” so I know that you are an educated man. If I may pose a suggestion: Please, in conducting your interviews in the future, ask the interviewee a question, and then allow them to answer. You may be forgetting that you are recording the interview. You are sitting close enough to the recording equipment that your constant comments, ‘mhmms,” “right,” “yeah’s” are abosolutley so annoying, I can neither concentrate on the speaker, nor enjoy the interview. I will avoid your interviews in the future because I find it intolerable. Thanks for trying though. Dr. Phinney is amazing!
Coz of these idiot stupid docs my father has been using cooking oiL, Thinking is it good but IT IS NOT!
Dr. Phinney is smart enough to observe in the first minute that the interviewer is high.
Moderation is the key. Our ancestors didn’t have Walmart supercenters. You had to burn a lot of calories to get your meal. Didn’t have processed food ether. We may have a modern society but as far as our genes go we are still ancient humans. Interesting lecture but reminds me of a monotoned soft talking professor I had in college. I would fall asleep in class no matter how interesting the subject.
The interviewer kept interrupting him, I would have walked out if I was Dr.Phinney.
Some years ago when my doctor told me I had type 2 diabetes, I asked him if I could still eat fruit. He said, “You can eat all the fruit you want. You are glucose intolerant, not fructose intolerant.” And that’s not the worst advice I have ever gotten from mainstream doctors. The public really needs protection from mainstream medical doctors.
of course humans are designed to burn fat.. when glucose isn’t available, and while we sleep
not all the time. glucose is a much better fuel
See Ben Bickman research. Protein does not turn into chocolate cake on a low carb diet!!
Such a great lecture. I had no idea Vitamin D played a role in controlling inflammation. My doctor added that it also has a role in calcium absorption…wow, what a vitamin
re: pre-diabetes. you’re using glucose tests. not using Insulin test (Kraft)?
Why is it so easy to get out of the ketogenic state. Maybe a million years ago it wasn’t so easy to find chocolate cake.
Modern human history where we have had access to constant levels of starch/carbs is maybe only 6,000 years? Likewise for meats. Maybe look at the Australian aboriginal diet prior to European arrival. grubs, seeds, low gi native ‘fruits’ very lean meats from kangaroos, mostly raw, some fish. And as mostly nomadic you can bet they lived off ketosis until they could find the next bunch of food.
Need to look at the humans of 10,000 years ago that’s who we are. Maybe humans spent a great deal of time in ketosis so they maintained muscle mass, and when they got lucky, could get out of ketosis and add fat stores at the same time.
AND who knows in humanities future we may be scratching around in the dirt for food, glad of ketosis.
so the problem are not fruits. it s the processed carbs ( 25:00 ).
i guarantee you, that if at the same time you cut out absolutely all carbs for a week, this isn t forever, and eat only fruit either instead of meals or instead of carbs, your fructose production will eventually start to go down. the whole issue is eating processed foods, and i know fruits are not what they used to be, but as long as they have seeds, they re still more healthy than white flour.
On balance good advice. Eat more green leafy vegetables and less garlic bread for a start.
* no sugar
* low or no dairy
* no wheat
* no trans fats
* organic
* Eat slowly with gratitude
Genetics? I have to disagree with the “genetics excuse.” It is nonsense to suggest that some humans are genetically predisposed to disease. All chronic disease is directly linked to diet.
Intermittent fasting definitely works! My twin sister started January 13th 2020 weighing 213 lb, and today February 9 2020, she’s weighing in at 201lbs. Stay consistent and be patient
Good video. I saved it to my Nutrition playlist.
100 grams protein daily, about 30 grams of carbs from vegies and nuts, 0 sugars, and good fats like butter, coconut oil, olive oil and lard. After at least 10 years of high BP meds, Metformin for type 2 and being obese, I’ve dropped 40 lbs, my BP is in normal range and my A1C is 5.5 after 5 months.
It’s not a sacrifice, because I’m winning!
Great lecture!
This explains why there is a case for high carb low fat, which obviously is used by most vegans and wfpb followers. It’s personal. Some people just do better on 100% plantbased high carb low fat.
But it’s not many of us. The percentage of wfpb followers and vegans is a single digit. Now it’s clear why… That’s the percentage of people that can do fine without animal products.
All those discussions about what is the best diet,…. It’s mostly dictated by what your digestive system can handle and what your cells prefer.
But, no high carber can denie this: when you’re on a health plantbased high carb diet, most carbs get converted into fat and stored. A couple of hours after eating, insulin levels are down again, and access to the bodyfat is also restored so that your cells can use the body fat for energy.
So you can be on a low fat diet, but your cells aren’t.
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. I began Keto because on an autoimmune disease and was on Prednisone for over a year and a half on 15mg. In 10 days on the Keto diet I felt better than I had in all the time before. Now, 60 days on the Keto diet and I am on 1mg. After a couple of months on Keto you will be more in tune with how your body reacts to the wrong foods. I eat a piece of pie last night, only sugar in many weeks, and I hurt considerably more than usual. I refer to this as a “shot across the bow”.
Table to farm… That’s right it’s table to farm not Farm to table because this is a consumer driven movement. Check out a video on the future of food to learn how to connect yourself directly with more nutrient-dense and naturally produced food ingredients and products that fit your dietary needs! https://youtu.be/0cpRX9JPA5c
Totally fascinating talk and just what I needed to hear as I’ve been suffering with a sugar addiction for years, chocolate, bread, crisps you name it.
I have been dabbling with an Ayurvedic way if eating for about 3 months, but only this month I discovered a quick fix to my sugar addiction as my sugar addiction was still present. I found constitution Bitters in my local Asian store (struggled with it at first as it’s not pleasant to taste, but now look forward to it EVERY morning). After about a week I realised that I wasn’t craving sugar anymore and I don’t “fart all day” (what a bonus for everyone walking behind me)
It’s winter here in the UK so I’ll ensure that I take my vitamin D supplements every day to maximize the benefits.
Thanks for slotting everything into place, hopefully now I’ll get rid of my brain fog, chronic fatigue and other inflammation in my body.
Did this interviewer do his training at the BBC “never let the subject finish a sentence” school of interviewing.
I drink about 8 pints of beer and eat a 12 inch pizza every night and have done almost every night for the last 12 years. But I also run 3 miles every 2 days and work out. Was fit as a fiddle until recently and in the last 4 month’s kept my diet the same but stopped exercise. Started getti g a bit fat but thought nothing of it. Switched 4 of the pints out for a bottle of white wine. Weight piled on within a month and whole body feels ruined. Pain in hands and knees, jaw pain, breathlessness, headaches, nausea, stage 2 hypertension, fatigue etc. Feel so ill that I don’t think it’s possible to get better
What about olive oil and flax seed oil, usually advocated as healthy?
Brilliant video. Great personality. Very engaging. An important and honest message about nutrition that people need to know because of the centuries of misinformation. People need the truth so they can make informed decisions about their lifestyles. The misinterpretation and promoting of bad science behind nutrition is truly shocking. 100 years of food myths and deep seated cultural ideas around eating prevents the message getting through. Though, at least in UK and Australia where healthcare is free (ish) I’m convinced there’ll be a financial breaking point (due to the medical servicing of underlying nutritional diseases) where the authorities will have no option but to correct the messages, else face financial disaster (that tax payers won’t be able to afford).
You know, it isn’t just fruit that’s seasonal, it’s a lot of other stuff that grows as well. The only thing that man eats all year round that isn’t seasonal is in fact, able to run away from us.‼
Doctors like this one know what’s good you because they’ve been through the wringer and know what it’s like to be sick, so they can fix the problem. They know how to do it. Thanks doc.
WOW! Great info for advanced LCHF dieters to consider to make things even better.
Ive lost 30 pounds and coming close to my target weight. How do i manage to maintain my weight by eating enough fat? What fatty things can I eat? Can anyone help please?
Stress is more damaging to the body than anything you can eat.
Where I can find more details about blue zones population commonalities?
Is it just ‘unprocessed whole foods’ thing?
How much cooking is still ‘unproceseed’?
Interesting claim about uric acid… the foods that are supposed to create uric acid are beef, pork, most seafood, organ meat, oatmeal, spinach, cauliflower, mushrooms, cabbage… I think peaches and tomatoes too… there may be more… find someone with gout (like me) and you can test out different foods and see if they spark gout… but, I usually never get a flare up when I eat a lot of fruit. And I plan to eat a bunch of peaches during next peach season to see if the recommendation to avoid them applies to me, because I love peaches. One antidote to gout, is tart cherries, although I eat lots of sweet cherries every day… and take a tart cherry supplement. Apparently, cherries help the body clear uric acid. You do not want gout. It feels like your bones (usually in the feet, but in my case mostly in my fingers) have shattered and just barely touching them, is crazy painful.
Thank you Dr. Gary Fettke,
Great post!! Finding fresh food can be a big challenge! We need more natural local food for All!
Dr. Fettke, thank you very much for the hard information presented in such a good natured and self-deprecating manor. I’m a 20 year vegetarian, who’s been diabetic for 30 years, and now I’m on severe Keto and biohacking. I once had a similar looking foot. I only lost a toe and 4 inches of tendon. The science supports carnivore, not vegetarian. Once I looked at the science my lifestyle completely changed. Your educational efforts are effective in bringing those suffering in the dark of ignorance, into the light. They can choose to bask in it’s rays, and be well.
Nice guy, smart guy but Boring! Omg, I’m surprised he can keep Himself awake with that droning monotone. I’m standing here and tuning out at 11 minutes before I fall asleep and fall down and hurt myself.
Really need to watch this a few times great info and despite what some say it is spot on. Regards backlash on this Kind of reminds me of people who defend liars and cheaters (like D Bag Don) for political reasons. There is never a good reason to support a liar and cheater. You reap what you sow, and you are what you eat.
Are you no longer on Instagram? I just did a search (@thegaryscience) and nothing showed up.
This was very interesting to watch after Low Craqb Houston 2019, especially the presentations by David Diamond, Ivor Cummins, Jeffry Gerber, Siobhan Huggins, and Dave Feldman. I have a question about hormone known as vitamin D, where is it assembled by the body? Does the bacteria in the small intestine have anything to do with the assembly of D (D2/D3?) and which bacteria help to build D2 /D3? Does wearing UV blocking glasses, sunhats and long sleeves impact D production? Thank you once again Gary.
Wow this was hard to listen to. The interviewer just kept interuping soo much, i could not finnish the interview.
How is moderate protein defined? That is always vague to me from videos as this one. I have seen references which state that protein should anywhere from 0.8 g-1.5 g/ kg of body weight.
Andreas this is great but please let your guests talk and stop interrupting them it’s so irritating
I’m from Australia and i listened already! I was on a list for knee replacement and could hardly walk, taking lots of pain relief. Cutting out sugar, wheat and seed oil has made me virtually pain free and has given me back mobility, it’s a life changer!
dEAR dite doctor PLEASE stop INTERRUPTING THE PERSON!! it is sooOOOO annoying! TKS
Great summary:
Sugar makes you HUNGRY.
Carbohydrates make you FAT.
Polyunsat. oils make you INFLAMED and SICK
So many people have said this already: the interviewer needs to just ask questions and listen without interrupting. Other than that, very interesting information.
My kiddo had seizures(no genetic issues, im convinced it was caused by aluminum in the vaccinations). Anyway, we tried the meds first and while it stopped the seizures, she lost her personality. We went through 18 months of the worst, darkest time of my life. I thought I’d never see my child smile or laugh again. Doctors couldn’t help, supplements couldn’t help. Ketogenic diet helped, it saved all of us. After 3 months her seizures were gone. After 9 months something magical happened and we got her back. Just one day at the age of 5 she told us she was not sick anymore. I’ll be forever grateful to those who discovered ketogenic diet. She is almost 8 now, hasn’t had seizures in over 3.5 years, top of her class in all subjects.
Brill talk very informative i agree with you, i am so looking foreward to the time when we no longer have this corupt system to deal with, and things can be done just how JEHOVAH God intended for the earth and everything on it, its all trial and error with human rulership,but this verse in the bible gives me a hope DANIEL CHAPTER 2 VERSE 44 and ISAIAH 33 VERSE 24
I have been keto for five years and to keep going I occasionally need reinforcement and to know I have a tribe. No breaks at 74 years young there is no time left to take a break. Thank you
Everything went wrong in the 70s, Nixon got off the gold standard, Vietnam, Angel Keys, Polyunsaturated fats and carbs
I am almost 60; I’ve never been to an allopathic Dr for an illness since I was 17 & that was because I was a vegetarian.The Dr told me to stop the milk products (become a vegan) Result: Besides broken bones, (because of severe trauma) I never went back. I have no need for medication for anything.
I found that becoming a whole plant food eating person made me a lot healthier.
Just being “vegan” isn’t healthy. There are a whole lot of vegans that eat garbage.
Empty carbs, oils, sugary food. All of which can be as bad or worse even than meat.
If you want to be honest & seek good health listen to this lady:

Cholesterol is only found in animal products. Run a lot, eat more plants.
Hi Gary
Thanks for the witty, visually pleasing, comprehensive, uncluttered and simple presentation. This makes so much sense. Thanks for curating the information so that we all can be more aware. I am a nutrition enthusiast, and on the verge of reversing my diabetes. I am keenly interested in living long and healthy. What you say is similar what some of our ancestors from the Indus Valley said. In fact nutrition was biggest science then and the cook was the doctor.
I have few questions for you, are carbohydrates from grains for example rice, sorghum, pearl millet, foxtail millet and so on as bad as from fruits? I am from India and we eat loads of seasonal millets.
Are Vegetables, which grow on the contaminated soils, or animals who consume them are safe for us to eat? Isn’t that altering the content of the fats that you are mentioning for example clarified cow butter?
What about Lactose? Eat seems no carbohydrates are good.
You are right… largely we are doomed, Thanos seem to have clicked his fingers long time ago or Shiva opened his 3rd eye…may be we are not fit for earth.
Thanks & Regards
Raghu
I try not eating anything that is not meat. Meat and animal fats are the best.
10:59 Swallow This: Serving Up the Food Industry’s Darkest Secrets, book by Joanna Blythman
Brian Murphy I can see why u don’t often comment lots of very passionate comments out there some sounding quite rude ( thinking they’re missing something in their diet maybe their diet is too restricted )
I liked your comment and your honesty and that even though you’re passionate you’re polite. Yeah and if you all out there in comment land see mine is too long and it bothers you just skip it that’s what a polite person would do
Recent studies shows that lack of vitamin D may correlate with depression, and now he shows that lack of vitamin D cause inflammation and inflammation causes depression, we are getting somewhere.
Cholesterol is actually not bad, it is good, it’s objective is to solve the problems with fat in the blood, make steroid hormones like vitamin D and testosterone, etc, when it’s concentration is high, people don’t have to get it down, people have to discover the reason why the body is producing it, because it is not what’s causing the problem, the body is producing it because it’s trying to solve the problem, getting it down will just slow down the healing process of the real problem you have, that’s what conventional medicine is about today, treating the symptom not the cause.
Amazing we r fat and sick but worse we are willingly ignorant and proud of what we think we know. Thank God for this channel.
He would recommend what exactly? Saturated fats good and unsaturated bad? What about polyunsaturated fats like walnuts?
@ 21:07 @ 22:51 Excellent point about LDL and Vitamin D. Worth hearing again.
In the future we will all have CGM devices implanted and Governments will introduce a carb tax. For our own good of course.
For me, eating fruit, especially grapes, is no different than eating chocolate or a piece of pie. Just sets me off on a sugar eating binge. On the rare occasions I do eat fruit, it is blueberries or strawberries.
Dr Eenfeldt, your constant interruptions and unnecessary vocalizations completely ruined this interview. You were very disrespectful to Dr Phinney
Other things to look at which does the most damage to the human condition? Cancers thrive on glucose, Alzheimer’s is improved by ketones, constant glucose damages blood vessels, capillaries. I think this may indicate that ketosis is the default position, and glucose metabolism the reaction to times of plenty, maybe for the purpose of building fat stores? The damage that glucose does to the human condition to me indicates this isn’t the default system.
You do in fact become fat adapted, the problem is that you actually blunt your capacity to burn carbohydrates.. meaning you are not able to perform higher intensity exercise, a clear performance detriment. Clearly the athletes you cite are trials of 1.. any good science would tell you that this is not sound. Additionally, experience marathoners typically negative spilt or even split.. you’re not an exception.. I also found it convenient that with a vo2max test you didn’t include an RER value.
There’s 100s of studies supporting the idea of using exogenous carbohydrates during exercise that improve performance. This is horribly researched and rushed. There’s no explanation for several topics. Please support your evidence with actual empirical evidence, not n of 1 trials.
Governments are never going to admit sugar is poison because that might affect the sugar industry negatively. Thus, hurting the economy. Government is highly motivated to a strong economy, so they will endorse and encourage every food.
Please rename this video. It’s hard to find. Use the words: Type 1 diabetes not T1D.
I wonder if it is polyunsaturated oils that are bad for you or cooking with polyunsaturated oils at high temperatures that are the real culprit.
Shame on AHPRA to caution a doctor for giving health advice! And good one too. He, as a surgeon would see all the complications from diabetes/obesity! A medical degree does not qualify you to give nutritional advice???
Oh, he’s about to start in with that “palatability” bullsh*t. I’ll skip this one. Someone let me know if I missed anything.
Nope. Cannot listen to someone who smacks their lips with every syllable. Sorry.
I did! 76 yrs old; no medication whatsoever, no sugar! only organic whole food.
Another useful resource for users of Dr Bernstein’s methods is Low Carb Diabetes Emotional Support https://www.facebook.com/groups/755136791356811/
He is aware that replacement of saturated fats with PUFA’s actually reduces risk of CHD isn’t he? Inflammation from PUFA’s has never been shown in humans to any great degree. He’s taking mechanistic evidence that just doesn’t translate to humans
Is it just me, or does the kind of hysteresis we’re seeing between carb-based metabolism and fat-based metabolism make sense for humans in a hunter-gatherer setting?
I mean, in this type of setting, being in a state of plenty in a gathering scenario (which is likely to be highly biased toward plant-based, high-carb foods) means the body easily switches over to using carbs for fuel. Additionally, an over-abundance of such foods will go straight to fat for longer-term storage. Conversely, being in a state of plenty in a hunting scenario (which is likely to consist largely of high-protein, high-fat foods) means the body can either use carbs for fuel (assuming a high level of protein intake, which results in sufficient gluconeogenesis to keep the body burning carbs) or in using fat for fuel (assuming a high level of fat intake). Here as well, an over-abundance of such foods will go straight to fat for longer-term storage.
In situations where both hunting and gathering fail to result in sufficient calories to keep burning carbs, the body switches to ketosis and proceeds to live off its fat stores until either hunting or gathering results in enough calories to return to carb burning (and, with an over-abundance of any kind of food, fat storage). The whole cycle then repeats between periods of feast and famine.
In such a setting, it makes perfect sense for anything more than a minimal amount of carbs (or a moderate amount of protein) to switch the body into burning carbs, as this protects (and possibly augments) the hard-won fat stores for times in the future when it will be the only game in town, calorie-wise. It also makes sense that getting into ketosis requires fairly serious carb/protein restriction, as being in ketosis puts the body’s fat stores at imminent risk of depletion-a thing that should not happen unless other food sources become scarce.
So in many respects, the modern diets that put us into ketosis today are in many ways a “hack” of the body’s ancient preference of burning anything other than fat (and storing any over-abundance as fat), as we restrict protein and carbs to force the body into the ketogenic “starvation mode” while at the same time providing sufficient levels of exogenous fat to either entirely forego endogenous fat metabolism (for the skinny folks) or control the rate of endogenous fat metabolism (for folks looking to lose some of their stored fat).
I’m kind of surprised Robb didn’t speak explicitly to this point…
This presentation is astounding. I am amazed how much the arguments and health/nutritional philosophy presented here overlap and are complementary with the ideas that Chris Masterjohn has advanced in his articles, podcasts and videos in recent years. The analysis is so much deeper, more rigorous, and intellectually satisfying than the dogmas propounded by the Procrusteans who endorse the only one true diet allegedly best for everyone. What is common to both Wolf and Masterjohn, it seems to me, is a very solid grounding in physiology and biochemistry conjoined with an integrative (and not merely analytical) approach to health and nutrition.
Nice presentation! I’m T1D x 38 years. Followed the standard diabetic diet for 25 years then Dr Bernstein’s plan x 12 years improving A1C from 7.0/8.0 to 6.0. Now zero carb carnivore x 9 months, less insulin, more stable blood glucose, no hunger and A1C keeps getting better, currently 5.4… Loving it!
I’ve been type 1 for forty years and, like you, never had an HbA1c less than 8%. Using a CGM certainly was a game changer but switching to a ketogenic diet improved my glycaemic control substantially with my BG being in range over 90% of the time and my insulin dosage reduced at least four fold. I have started losing weight (not that I’m excessively overweight) but probably need to consume a higher proportion of fat to fully put me in a ketotic state. I’ve purchased a ketone breathalyser to ensure I remain ketotic and also have available to check for DKA if I ever go on an insulin pump which can occur if there are problems with the infusion cannula. Of course, as you clearly point out, DKA is often confused with ketosis but can only become a problem if ketosis is combined with hyperglycaemia. My daily food intake is minimal and involves no more than 30g carbs, only moderate protein and proportionally high fat and yet I never feel at all hungry. High carbohydrate diets, typical of Western society, is what drives the global epidemic of excessive food consumption. One aspect that you did not cover is that diabetics are always seen as high risk for heart disease and a high fat diet may seem counterintuitive. However, new evidence has recently emerged that confirms a low carbohydrate, high fat diet does not, in fact, predispose type 1 diabetics to increased risk, bar a rare subset with a very specific lipid profile. Glad that someone with a medical background is enthusiastic to challenge a decades long dogma of misinformation.
What do you think to Dr Gregors video against low carb diet for diabetes?
An excellently educational and enjoyable video. Living in Scotland where we have a dark winter and long sunny summer I believe that the role of vitamin D has been long underestimated. You shone light on it for me today. Thanks
Is that right that it takes 2 to 4 weeks to get back to keto adapted after one cheat day?
Another well known Orthopaedic Surgeon was also cautioned and targeted for using nutrition to help his patients, and that is Dr. Shawn Baker. Well known carnivore and athlete.
Low carb diet will mask symtoms of diabetes, in effect you are making yourself more insulin resistant but avoiding the symptoms as long as you consume no carbs. Not really a good approach long term. Nathan Pritikin had very good results with T1 and T2 diabetics with these results: Average drop in cholesterol 25%; of 218 hypertensives taking drugs to control HBP 186 (about 85%) left with normal blood pressures and off all drugs; Half of all the adult-onset diabetics using insulin when they arrived left the center with normal glucose levels and no longer needed insulin injection, of those taking oral drugs for T2D 80% left the center drug-free. 70% of those who arrived taking medication for gout left freee of symptoms and off medication. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BcHHDmuyPv4
I was diagnosed with T1D LADA in August 2018. My Hba1c was 12,8. I immedially cut all carbohydrates by intuition. Furthermore,after some little teaching here on yt with Dr. Berry, Dr. Fung etc. and the lecture of Dr. Bernsteins book I went on OMAD and Keto/ sometimes carnivore style. In the first 4 months I quitted eating from sunday afternoon to wednesday afternoon every week( a 3 day fast). At first, my weight was about 120 kg, I had a high blood pressure about 180/110, pain everywhere, especially in the neck and the back in general. One year later: weight: 70 kg ; BP: 120/80 ; Hba1c: 5,5 ; backpain ( almost) gone. I eat once a day, which means that I´m eating about 1 kg ( not sure, 2 Pounds in english?) fatty meat, when I´m on carnivore diet. Starting with a bloodsugar about 88 mg/dl in the morning, this amount of protein causes my bloodsugar to rise to about 110 mg/dl after 3 hours.( I´m taking 3 units bolus insulin per day together with my meal.) It takes my body about 6 hours up to 8 hours to get under 100 mg/dl. In the end, my morning bloodsugar is about 80 90 mg/dl, as I said. My c-peptides show no sign of a decrease in the last year ( my diabetician doctor wonders about “a long Honeymoon Phase, that CERTAINLY won`t last!” ) No “rollercoaster”. Ach ja, eyesight is better and I´m able to train up to 4 hours per day ( martial arts) EVERY day without pain or fatigue now. Sorry for my bad english, school is over since 1990 or so, and I was a lazy pupil. PS: Before all of that meat and fat eating, I was a vegetarian/ vegan for the most of the time! In the beginning, eating all that fat was DISGUSTING! PPS: By the way, did I mention my colitis ulcerosa, that I suffered from for over 20 years? I think I forgot about her, because she seems to have gone. Not quite sure about that, it simply feels like. No more diarrhea etc.
I never had any health complications other than obesity all my life, and I always wondered what it is, and it’s all insulin and hormonal, now I am doing low carb diet since almost an year I think, or more, and i have seen such changes in my health, great changes, extra weight obviously all gone.. low carb is the way of life, and there are more benefits you will notice once you are on the LCHF diet for long,
Thank you for talking about this and sharing your low carb T1d story. I have had a similar experience myself and hope that all type 1 diabetics will be given this as an option one day soon. LCHF keto has changed my life tremendously.
Has anyone replicated the nineteenth century results of diabetics dropping like flies due to ketoacidosis? I feel like these results are not being replicated in the contemporary world.
Min 22 indirect calorimetry is not a great tool as the CO2 in the lungs may not be the same in the mitochondria. A full carnivore not consuming carbs is not utilizing glucose as their main fuel. Granted that’s there is some gluconeogenesis but is not accounting for the RQ of 1.0.
Great talk. Just FYI the data from TYPEONEGRIT paper was meticulously verified via physician records, so not just ‘online survey.’
It would be helpful if you could say Type One Diabetes or Type Two Diabetes to avoid confusion. Out here in the real world not everyone knows the difference between the two diseases
great presentation, also people should pay more attention to paleomedicina, which are improving outcomes for t1d patients with their protocol. good times for LCHF research.
