I love all her educational videos
There is not a lot of science in baby nutrition. Do babies need carbs during the first years of life (other than breast milk) and if so how much?
Omg. Idiocracy is in full bloom happening now because of 60 years of high carb diet.
Very good information. The only thing that bothers me about her presentation is her constant up-talk.
Thank you for posting this! Lily Nichols is the most well-researched pregnancy nutrition expert I know. Her work is so extensive and her books are incredible!
Conventional nutritional guideline is BS! Fetuses require only 2 macronutrients for development fats and protein. That’s exactly what breastmilk is. There is no such thing as a carbohydrate essential
After start a keto diet for at least 5 weeks, finally I got pregnant after 2.5 years trying at 36 years old. I wasn’t expecting this “side effect” but thanks god happened. I continued this keto diet but my doctors were very concerned about it when ketones in my urine appeared. As a result of my urine test I was told to eat a “healthy” diet, full of carbs… the results: gestational diabetes. I wouldn’t say another factors contributed to the development of GD, but the way I managed the blood sugars was by doing mostly keto. They (doctors) really scary you about ketones and I was forced to eat carbs but it is an inconsistency what they tell you. I was a whole mess between what doctors told me to do and the results I was having with keto while pregnat. I decided to follow keto diet (once in a while I ate carbs) and I have a healthy baby who was 7pounds and 7ounces as a new born.
My point is that many doctors don’t even know the benefits of low carb and we are supposed to trust them.
Good day! I’m Austin.I did -40 lbs past 2 weeks.Visit hawght.so
Can I just add that the dangers of a macrosomic baby can be catastrophic for the mother and infant as increases chance of a traumatic painful and often difficult labour/c section. This not only puts the baby at risk of many undesirable outcomes from hypoxia and birth damage but also for the traumatised and often physically damaged mother. Slow post partum healing, life long morbidity, postpartum depression.
So this woman’s lower carb advocacy is rooted on hunter gatherer diets.
She’s a poorly informed dietitian in ignoring that
there was no obesity, diabetes, and macrosomia epidemics until the 1980s. the longest lived traditional cultures have high carb diets.
hunter gatherer communities do not have long average lifespans, due to succumbing to food insecurity, and irrational superstitious primitive beliefs.
higher carb diets have been the norm in civilized nations for thousands of years…the reason being grains provide superior food security.
Once again, we have an unprofessional health professional deluded by confirmation bias.
How do you get hold of that study, or statement in the study at 8:00 That states carbs are zero essential.
great info! so, 100-150g carb/day during pregnancy, and eat nutritiously.
Hmmmmm, they did a low carb pregnancy study more recently. Published in January 2018: “To assess the association between carbohydrate intake and NTDs, we analyzed data from the National Birth Defects Prevention Study from 1,740 mothers of infants, stillbirths, and terminations with anencephaly or spina bifida (cases), and 9,545 mothers of live born infants without a birth defect (controls) conceived between 1998 and 2011”.
I don’t understand, what she says doesn’t make sense. She says nutritional Keto’s is ok but you have to eat a minimum of 90g per day. How the hell are you supposed to get into a ketogenic state at 90g carbs a day?!!!
Are you kidding me? Low carb, high fat and moderate protein is IDEAL for pregnancy! Fats and proteins are critical for optimal growth and health of both the mom and her future baby. Last thing a pregnant woman needs is to stuff herself with exogenous empty carbs that are nutritionally useless.
29:57 I thought raw egg (mayo) was frowned upon for pregnant women?
I really don’t understand why diabetic patients need to eat loads of carbs. Don’t they already have trouble dealing with blood sugar levels?
Two questions. Is it ok to lose weight during pregnancy if I’m not about 20 lbs overweight? Also, how do you deal if your doctor doesn’t agree with Keto but wants me on insulin and metformin during pregnancy to control my blood sugars to compensate for the higher carbs?
As someone who did keto for a year until I got pregnant, I can now say after a very bad scare that keto is not good for pregnant mothers. I got very very sick in my third trimester and had to be monitored due to diet or lack of. Doctors told me to eat varied diet keto is not safe for pregnancy and sure enough everything worked out after I began eating normally again. Pregnancy is not a time for trial and error or new fad diets without a doctors knowledge. Now I found out that not only was my baby not getting enough nutrients from such a strict diet, the baby was taking everything from me to the point where I was malnourished.
I can’t deal with these low carb brain lacking advocates. Carbs and even insulin is health promoting. Fats and high protein is the cause of sickness. Prove me wrong
Thank you for this interesting presentation. Many facets of low carb nutrition have been covered over the years, but the place for low carb eating within the context of pregnancy is not something that has been covered in depth. I appreciate you for covering a topic that has seldom been given exposure. As with many misgivings that the public and medical profession have with low carb, whether pregnant women should adopt this eating pattern can best be assessed in the absence of clinical data by looking at it through a historical or evolutionary lens. As Ms. Nichols points out here, if having a low carbohydrate diet were that pernicious to the development of the fetus, humanity would never have made it to this point, because, for most of human history, rich sources of carbohydrate were in scarce supply. Given the dearth of plentiful carbohydrates throughout much of human existence, we must have developed adaptations for us to run on fat/ketones for fuels. It logically follows that the fetus also has these adaptations. Otherwise, every successive generation of human beings, prior to the advent of agriculture, should have shown increasing levels of mental impairment and physical disability. Modern day hunter/gatherer population should also be experiencing a rampant spread of mental retardation and physical handicaps.
On a side note, it is interesting that epidemiologists will jump to making causal connections between associated phenomenon when it favors the establishment narrative (i.e. high carb/low fat is good for you), but then don’t make such leaps in logic when associations work against that same narrative. After all, most studies of western dietary patterns show an increase in carbohydrate consumption has occurred in the West for the past few decades, with a concomitant reduction in overall fat intake. We have also seen increased levels of autism, ADHD, and food allergies in children. Now logically we should never make a causal connection between increased carbohydrate consumption and any one of these maladies, based simply on observational evidence of an increase in these two things. We would be guilty of the same error that we criticize epidemiologists for making. So I would never advocate for such a non sequitur. However, following the same illogical thinking of epidemiologists, if one phenomenon is on the rise (i.e. increased carb intake) and another phenomenon was on the rise (ADHD, autism, and allergies), why don’t these same epidemiologists, who like to denigrate low carb, say that the former causes the latter? Why won’t epidemiologists erroneously jump to this conclusion? Could it be their funding?
Low carb dietitian from Poland here If I said keto was good for pregnant women and spread that (good!) news among dietitians and doctors in my homeland I would not only be completely ostracised but possibly also jailed. Polish nutritionists and doctors on the sound of the word “lchf” get so mad they act as if possessed. It is extremely hard to work when you know you’re right and others only keep making more and more people (including children) hyperinsulinemic, often not knowingly. I intend to persist because I know low carb works beautifully hoping my people will eventually wake up when diabetes will be so widespread that healthcare professionals will have to deal with the conseqences of the mad high carb diets they recommend.
I’m pregnant and prediabetic and been on a low carb and feeling great and losing weight even if that’s not the goal. But my nutritionist told me to start eating a lot of carbs cause it’s healthy for the baby and it gives me energy…. I told her when I eat carbs I crash. I knock out. And she told me it’s okay your pregnant just don’t cut out too much carbs…. I feel great on a low carb diet no morning sickness I’m sticking to this!
This video was useless. Low-carb? What’s low-carb? 50gr a day? 100gr?
How about the difference between a 105lb petite woman and a 220lb man?
The fact of the matter is anyone active should get 0.8-1.0gr of protein per pound of lean body-weight and 0.4gr of fat per pound of lean body-weight (healthy fats like olive oil, walnuts, salmon, etc). The res of the diet can be made of healthy carbs like fruits and veggies along with slow-cooked oats, brown rice, sweet potatoes and yams.
