I am low carb also, how do we know when we are insulin sensitive? C-Peptide test?

It takes a real man to admit that!

Yep 👍... I know it is important to learn from mistakes ...( I never saw how wrong the food pyramid scheme was ...no doubt due to me being a trusting person and being a teenager) ... but every so often we need to be reminded that we are fallible humans and knowledge comes with not just learning but age and wisdom and missteps 🤓 I look forward to learning even more now that I'm a 40 year old kid 😎 Heck I didn't catch on to problems with seed oils until 2 years into keto/carnivore due to myopic focus on carbs 😒

This is unusual for a doctor

A sigh of REAL character. Even more since it brought him so much trouble.

admire the ability to change ones mind , rare .

Right Colin ... it's a way of life ... NOT a "diet."

Yes! It is the right way of life! No more wheat!

communist.... so you're pro bread lines?

Imagine being in the low carb community where every day you are presented with evidence of a global genocide done deliberately for financial interests of big capitalist industries and still think capitalism is great, to the level of being triggered by someone's profile pic like the 2 comments above.. that's basically the definition of "cease to be honest"

@@supertiti100 As opposed to being in a socialist/communist hell where you are also presented with of genocide on a daily basis, with people "disappearing" in the night, but also starvation, a diet consisting of government bread or rice or potato and nothing else, which you have to queue hours for, and a decrepit (but _free_ ) hospital system with archaic technology bought/stolen from western nations. This guy would not even be permitted to speak, he might even vanish and have all trace that he ever existed erased.

@@rob28803 I was born and raised in a socialist / communist country and you are the typical brainwashed westerner who doesn't have a clue about anything but is very angry..

@@supertiti100 This is true, wouldn't call myself a communist but you're correct! Capitalism is to blame for a lot of the anti fat bullshit we see recommended to us today.

+harooni22 Yes I see my muscles and strength after a few days avoiding carbs and eating lots of fat. My thighs are 44 inches, and my neck is 17. I grow on low carb and high fat.

+harooni22 that's exactly my experience also.

No your not growing, your losing fat so you can see the muscle and it takes more than a "few days"

Exactly, just like in the climate science world, where "scientists" have falsely been blaming CO2 for climate changes. Those guys have a "consensus".

Since having been red-pilled John and although I haven't looked into the science of climate change to the same degree as I have for nutrition, it really would not surprise me if it's as bad as the field of nutrition. Some of my favourite (and very renowned and famous for their integrity) physicists have thrown up red flags over some of the claims of immediate apocalypse if we do not do something about (e.g.) rising CO2 levels, some having partaken in climate research themselves and yet are all too commonly dismissed as quacks instead of addressing their arguments. Whenever someone who comes across knowing that these dire claims being made by mainstream over climate change are accurate and I ask them what they think of the critiques made by these scientisits that are skeptical of such claims, then they usually retort with a _"oh they're just some old scientists stuck in the past"_ instead of actually addressing the arguments being made by them (which usually indicates they haven't even bothered to look at them) which flares up red flags of my own in my mind. More often than not, it demonstrates that they do not know/understand what they're talking about nearly as well as they think they do and/or profess to.

I hope by now you have come to change your attitude.

chiremba J my daughter is a physician who is helping obese people with self esteem and LCHF diets (with IF too). She helped me get started to address prediabetes. I am down to the weight I was at 20 and feel great. Weight just came off without trying. I am now stable.

I find I wee more the more meat I eat🤔... the body is great at homeostasis😁 ... and if I drink water the way they say (8 glasses a day🙄) I just pee it out pretty soon...now I stick to my thirst mechanism... when I have my fatty meats and I feel thirsty I drink a little bit of water and soon as I feel like peeing I stop ✋🤓

Golden food choices. I love almonds and berries.

2 questions: What about all those rural Asians eating rice 3 times a day that are all slim? Do you think it's possible that because humans are a different species, we process grains (I.e. Carbohydrates) differently than cows and pigs?

Right ... sit around and eat "Corn Chips" for 4 months .... see what happens to your health ... the FDA, AMA, and HID have failed to understand ... this is why 80% of anti-biotics are sold for animal health ... animals get sick when eating grains and this is not what their gut bacteria require ... same in humans .... 70 Going On 100

Yes, and since 1950 the diabetes index in Asia has increased exponentially. And by the way, gluten from wheat causes an immune response in all of us , have you ever read about it?

Shingm that is incorrect, using ketones as your primary fuel is what it is about, we have become carb users/burners, but nowhere in history did we every do that until modern times. Our principle fuel source has been ketones. Carbs are a dirty fuel, where as ketones burn cleaner and produce less ROS.

"Prolonged feeding of a ketogenic diet promotes the growth of renal tumors by recruiting ERK1/2 and mTOR which are associated with the accumulation of oleic acid and the overproduction of growth hormone. Simultaneously, we observed that Nrf2, p53 and 8-oxoguanine glycosylase α dependent antitumor mechanisms were launched by the ketogenic diet. However, the pro-cancerous mechanisms finally took the ascendency by boosting tumor growth." Liśkiewicz, A.

What if a vegetarian wants to go on low carb, what should he do?

we need an update, still alive or drop dead on this high fat diet? how's the your CT angiography? 70-80% blocked yet?

How's it going?

Not just in South Africa, but in other parts of the world as well. He has been here in Sweden a few times now discussing LCHF with the Swedish "Diet Doctor" Andreas Eenfeldt who now has the biggest health blogg in Scandinavia - dietdoctor(dot)com. I find Tim Noakes to be a very likeable and intelligent person.

***** You sound really, really ignorant... you have no idea how carbs work, do you?

Tim Noakes speaks specifically for people who are CARBOHYDRATE INTOLERANT. There is absolutely no point in people who ARE CARB TOLERANT to come onto this sight and start talking about cultures where people are able to handle vast quantities of carbs. It shows such a lack or knowledge of the complexities of human biology and chemistry. Talking about Asian and Kenyans is completely irrelevant here. For fuck sake are these people diabetic, hyperinsulinemic, hypoglycemic or do they have gout, hypertension, high triglycerides. NO. If not go to the HCLF sites and preach your shit there. Kidd D is right. We are living in the dark ages.

Yes that is true.

LOL. Complete bullshit. A guy with diabetes talking about a diet that will give you diabetes and lower your athletic performance. Just because people in the Paleolithic era ate a certain diet does not mean its healthy. The Paleo diet is also region specific. I have my 1000 dollar challenge. I will give any low carb sucker 1000 dollars cash if they can beat me in any athletic endurance event with my high carb diet. I live in the US and if you do, you can inbox me. I am willing to travel.

Jenny Butler Indeed! now just watch earthlings to embrace your new lifestyle to the fullest! Good luck!

I hope you are saving for your medical bills

+Tony Collyweston On the contrary, you're the reason our healthcare deductions are so high.

Jenny Butler I cheated 2 days ago at a Family Dinner. 😬☹️😢 Ham Glaze (I thought it was gravy) made my heart race, headache, and felt drunk. Potatoes and Stuffing-every joint in my body hurts. Cheating not worth the misery

pilotmom 975 The same thing happened to me. I had been on a LCHF way of eating for a few weeks, doing really well and feeling it. I succumbed to a bread roll because it was a special meal and I thought I could get away with it. Well, within the hour, I had a terrible headache and felt dizzy like I’d eaten a handful of Haribos. That taught me a lesson.

Hare Krsna! Greetings from Europe

I know you never respond to replies Ken 🤪... but I'll reply anyways 😁 so very true🙏👏👍... I always wonder how to explain to people what and why and how to eat for health when they ask about my choice of diet ... and as I come close to finishing watching every video released on this channel ... and the answer is now a lot more simple... watch every video on this channel if you want to learn about lchf 🤓 oh and just jump into it and experiment until you reach a satisfactory n=1 😉 ... I haven't reached six pack status but I've lost over 30 lbs of fat and it's just gonna take a bit longer to finish losing the last bit of belly ... and my visceral fat is down significantly 💪... still binge eat and occasionally get bowel disturbances due to experimenting with eating different ways to force my bodyfat to reduce... but at least I'm only binging on steaks 🥩 instead of ice cream 🍦😋... my only struggle is whether to go high or moderate protein 🤷🏻‍♂️

The world is not 3 millions old !!!

@@genegant998 He is saying Australopithecus africanus are 3 million years old, not the earth! Hominids only came about recently in earth's history, not from the very start, dummy! 🤦

​@@genegant998 Correct We have only been here for about 6,000 years. It's in the KJV Bible.

Did you know that men and women have the same number of ribs?@@heavenbound7

Refined vegetable oils are also bad.

some carbs do not ingest so its about the net carbs whole grains are bad as well

@nature2rule 88% of the US population is metabolically unhealthy due to a high carbohydrate diet ! Since there are NO essential carbohydrates needed in the human diet a high carbohydrate diet is toxic for the majority of the population!

mcse9073 do you mean “digest”? Not being a jerk, just clarifying. ✌🏼

FeelingShred Dr Lustig is amazing! I love his talks.

yep, when you look at it through historic and evolutionary lens you come to realize fruits make us fat to store extra fat energy for winter...but we now have the ability to eat like it is summer and autumn all year round 🤓 LCHF is a great strategy to counteract the downfall of the new world we live in where we can get food at the press of a button on our dumbphones😁... LCHF is an evolutionary adaptation and we just need to get high carb seed oil gluttonous humans to stop and leave us wiser humans to forward or wake up and adapt along with us.😎

Tudy F You can`t say eat what you want there are limits within the keto diet.

Tidy F not everyone is insulin resistant...yet. Might be wiser to restrict carbs before the cumulative effect builds up.

. Raising insulin 3 or 4 times a day will eventually cause heart disease

12%, not 55%

I read it’s 75% of the population having insulin resistance now.

Give us an update please 🤔

Many people just don't want to hear Roben.

I love butter, but without a carb to spread it on, how can I eat it?

WM P what amazes me is some Dr’s don’t want to listen. A few years ago mine didn’t but lately something is changing.

They teach them crap in the medical school

My doctor still is anti low carbondioxid Even though when I rarely go for tests i see people get fatter and fatter and fatter. I dont know, u rhink they dont want to see... to big risk

Eisenhower was a GREAT President. Another something that needs mentioning, is the 'Sugar Council', which deliberately concocted and "advanced" the "information" that fats were making us fat, and cholesterol in the diet, somehow led to cholesterol lining our arteries. Big Sugar, like Big Tobacco, had endless money to buy and bludgeon politicians, physicians, and scientists, to get them to endorse the Big Dietary Lie.

absolutely right. When I slashed carbs I reversed type 2 diabetes and 42 lbs in weight and my energy levels have never been better.

High calorie meals are a problem. Carbohydrates are just easier to load up on as there are more choices. McDonalds are very high fat content and look at the havoc that is causing!!

High carbs cause obesity. High insulin doesn't. If one eats low carbs and injects extra insulin, this would cause hypoglycemia, but not obesity.

@@pentachronic Must be the bun............

@Gazza-in-the-usa It’s not the fats but the carbohydrates which largely govern weight. If the intake of carbohydrates is 100 grams or less per day then weight stable less than 50 grams then weight lose . One has to find one’s own threshold.

why no cooked vegetable? Leaves and flowers are high fiber, high vitamin, moderate protein and low carb (fiber is carbohydrate but is not absorbed by the intestine)

I just watched some interesting KZfaq videos about those items, particularly fibre, lemons too. Sorry, I can't remember what the titles are. Hope you have a search for them, they cover the subject better than I could. Short story is that we have been lied to about the benefits, or even the necessity for fibre in our diets.

Yes there are a few potentially reliable articles on youtube regarding autophagy and glycation which show data on improved insulin resistance, which happened in patients who markedly reduce carbs. I'm going to stop my statins and ezetimibe and rigidly adhere to a low carb/wheat/grain diet, get a cholesterol test after about 6 weeks and see for myself. High cholesterol has caused me to have surgery, always been on a low fat high carb diet, so i have accurate HDL and LDL figures over the years to be able to make a comparison. We shall see, I would really like to be able to stop 80mg atorvastatin that's for sure.

There was no, or almost no diabetes fifty years ago, at the same time back then diabetes was called 'sugar diabetes" in many parts of the world. Then there were no oils on the supermarket shelves either but they soon became abundant as did the sugar loaded junk foods on the shelves. Then in the eighties things began to get really bad with weight, diabetes, well you name it everything began to happen all at once. I put it down to the sugar and high carbohydrate diet but the oils added to the obesity.

And why not?

hmmm 🤔 ... does this mean we have to put up with vegans and vegetarians so that there isn't a LCHF consensus? 😁 oh well... so much for making all humans healthy and eating a species appropriate diet 😋🤣

I live in NZ and I have "the book" Order online through Kalahari.com. They weren't the most efficient but we got there in the end. Dirt cheap and less than a week to deliver.

Maybe if you look under "The Real Meal Revolution" you might find it?

Lol. I always think that when I hear people say those kinds of things. Were they there? It's all speculation, as the bones he mentioned show us little about history, except maybe to help people to hypothesize about their favoured presuppositions. And then it's taught to school students as fact, so everyone grows up believing it without question.
