I don’t know how Layne, Holly and Carbon channels don’t have over 500k followers.... so much great and entertaining information...Carbon App is so phucking legit as well. Can’t wait to try their supplements

Your humble approach to science is incredibly refreshing.

So in conclusion if you're having saturated fat (from meats, dairy and tropical oils) eat your fruits and veggies (especially veggies since they seem to have more of the beneficial substances) to cancel out the health risks of a certain ammount of saturated fat. Well that's nice to hear that saturated fat isn't as absolutely devistating as some people make it out to be.

You have restored my sanity amongst two years of rabbit hole dieting. Thanks. Back to balance and to fix my health issues. Orthorexia is a nightmare.

This more laid back approach to Laynes teachings is so much more satisfying to watch than the shoutey stuff back in the day. I could listen to him and learn for hours like this.

I'd like to see a study looking into the effects of eating commercially produced vs traditionally grazed red meat. I'd bet that's why we see so many conflicting studies on the consumption of red meat.

1. exercise and resistance training 2. don't eat like an a########## 3. limit your stress 4. get enough sleep 5. don't smoke 6. limit alcohol consumption.

Honestly if you workout 3-7 days a week, eat whole natural foods and drink mainly water you will see a huge improvement in your health. Especially if you get your macros and drink some creatinine

THIS FREAKING CHANNEL IS SO UNDERRATED I COULD FREAKING DIE because of that !!! Layne Norton LEGEND !!!

It's a pretty cool study, though I did notice there's definitely some faults with the self-reporting of BMI and food intake. Somehow despite >75% of male participants being overweight or obese, average calorie intake is only about 2200. It's even more apparent in the female participants - ~50% overweight/obese despite an average intake of about 1600kcal. AND they're doing 15-20 outs of mod/vigorous physical activity per week. Sure the data could be skewed by a few outliers but... that doesn't quite add up. Got to love self-reporting!

When i became pre diabetic with metabolic syndrome symptoms last October, i went to a foundation of meat and low glycemic vegetables quit consuming sugar, starch, grains and high glycemic fruit as part of my daily diet and turned the truck around snd have maintained my 35 lbs f weight loss, off blood pressure med, fasting snd average blood sugar now in the 70-90s.

so the study didn't show any connection between meat and cancer but processed food which doesn't matter if it's plant or meat. it causes cancer due to chemicals they use. the group who ate processed food and plants at the same time showed a lower rate of cancer. it doesn't mean plants mitigate it. it just means they eat less of the cancer-promoting food which is the processed food hence the lower rate of cancer

You deserve waaaay more followers! Great FREE content! Thank you!

great analysis on this topic. i’ve been saying this for years. i don’t know why nobody is having this conversation.

I believe this! I eat meat(a smaller amount and not processed) with veggies and fruits. I Go for walks and I thrive on that diet! Enjoyed this! Thanks!

Always generally comes down to common sense & balance :-) Great video

the smartest man on KZfaq, new to channel love it...

Your editor must be shredded, with all the cutting he's been doing for your videos.

Meat is not really problematic, it's processing that adds a number of carcinogens - nitrosaminoglycans, aromatic hydrocarbons etc. Saturated fat is not problematic either - more research shows that the medical community overreacted with blaming fat on everything. Only artificial trans-fats are confirmed to be detrimental.

Meat and fruits are the ultimate diet. Full of energy and less cravings.

This was extremely helpful, Dr. Norton. Would you be open to an online Q & A?

As usual great educational and objective content! Big thanks Layne! Through my own training I have stumbled upon a question that is so ridiculously surrounded by garbage info it's insane; stubborn fat deposits. I was wondering whether it makes "sense" to diet down quite lean to get rid of it, and "start fresh" with new deposits, with a more even distribution of fat. Could you make a video on the (potential) science behind stubborn fat? There is so much noise online, and it would be super interesting!

Totally unrelated to the video I know. So pardon me for that. I was recently in a pretty severe car accident. I got rear ended by someone going around 55 or so. My doctor diagnosed me with post concussion syndrome. I was wondering if it would be possible for you to do a video on how long I should take a break from lifting and how exactly I should get back into lifting. Also, I've been using my sensory deprivation tank a ton during this time and it seems to be improving my symptoms. I was wondering if you've ever looked into the science of sensory deprivation tanks. I know you're the guy to go to in order to find out if they're horseshit or not. Thanks for your time. I love your content.

Perfectly balanced, as all things should be.

Lions, wolves, dolphins have been having heart attacks like gang busters from all that saturated fat from their carnivore diets 🤣

I came back just to refresh my knowledge.

Do you think the lower cancer risk associated with high vegetable consumption was due to the vegetables themselves or because the higher vegetable group probably lived a healthier overall lifestyle in terms of exercise, not smoking, etc?

Thx buddy love this stuff 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙏🏻

I eat lots of meat & fruits & veg. Best of both worlds.

I had ovarian cancer and was told to stop eating processed meat with hormones injected in them. I did what i was told. I feel better without meat at all. This was also blamed for my early period and big breasts as a kid. Just a personal story.

So often I think back to my farm upbringing. All our meat was raised by us. Our garden provided vegetables for the whole year. Always had meat and vegetables (including potatoes) for dinners. Was cancer less prevalent with that diet? I bet it was.

when you say "increase fruit and veg" keep in mind that is the same thing as saying "less junk food", for some reason we never do this same comparison with "increase meat". You can't actually conclude from what you said that vegs make it ok to eat meat, rather that eating less junk food makes it ok to eat meat, whether that can be replaced with veg or more meat (basically carnivore) is unclear from this evidence

You said high unprocessed meat and high fruits veggies yields LESS cancer than high fruits/veggies and no meat. Which means it's BETTER to have meats and veggies rather than veggies and no meats.

Q: can you (or anyone) define, once and for all, what "highly processed meats" are?

Stan efferding vertical diet

Is the high fruit/vegetable intake mitigating the effect or is it that eating red/processed meat with vegetables/fruits a diet that doesn’t include highly refined processed carbohydrates? I personally think red meat is one of the healthiest sources of protein and order my family’s red meat in bulk by ordering a cow from a farm in our local area. We cook it with fruits and vegetables (also locally sourced when possible) and all of us are lean, athletic, zero health issues. I see all these kids being raised vegetarian and many of them are dealing with obesity. So is it really meat or veggies?

Great video... what a nice breakdown.

I eat a ton of red meat. Not knowing where is was sourced, I came up with a new plan. Found a farmer who sold cows. Bought a freezer, bought a cow. I really doubt I will get cancer from eating red meat, especially locally bought (from local farmer) red meat. Good video, good info.

Hi Layne, can you do a video on slimming spas and “fat freezing”/“fat burning devices”?

Let's just say "processed food," and you're right. It's based on how it's processed, in general. As for natural meat and natural veg, they're fine.

Thank you so much for including the link

So red meat on it's own isn't really linked to a higher rate of developing or causing cancer....my question is about the cooking process. Is there a hazard ratio or statistically significant association of charred meats or cooking at high temps?

Always enjoy your Videos❤

When you say vegetables, you mean greens specifically ? Isnt legumes the thing that raises longevity the most ?

What was the definition of processed meat in this study? Do we actually get unprocessed meat at a regular grocery? Where exactly is the line of too processed? Is there a specific type of processing that is bad? Is cooking not a form of processing? I'm not trying to just muddy the water here. I'm genuinely curious. But I'm not sure a vague definition like processed is very useful. There's got to be some types of processing that is bad. Most people don't eat raw meat. So what kind of processing are we to avoid?

great content as always. thank you

Thank you for your analysis of saturated fat.

Thank you for valuable information.

These last 2 thumbnails are much better 💪

Couldn't agree more. This TAKEAWAYS are great. Eat veggies

You keep talking about cancer as if it's a singular disease, when there are so many different kinds of cancer. So what kind of cancer was correlated with the consumption of processed meat? Colon? Rectal? Stomach? Something completely different?

Go, Layne!

Wow awesome a U of A study!!!

Can you talk about the health effects of Beef Tendons?

It seems that they can find a study on anything and everything being bad for you in some way. In this case, maybe the vitamins and minerals decreases risk of certain health conditions. But again, there’s a million variables that come into play when talking about someone’s individual health. Lifestyles in general have a ton of variables alone, let alone genetics, age, fitness level, stress levels, sleep patterns, etc 🤔

Thanks Layne

CAN SOMEONE TELL ME, PLEASE: does it matter if the vegetables are starchy? My husband only likes a few veggies.

Dr Biolayne I have a good one for you. Which is better: restaurant food or frozen dinners? Can you do a video on that? I'm curious.

Cooking meat creates carcinogens and fruits / vegetables have antioxidants. I'm not saying it's that simple, but that might play a small part.

Do a video on your thoughts on using Epicatechin & Laxogenin and Forskolin . Also with natural test booster

veggies, fruit is ok, but what about seeds, nuts, grains?

After calorie balance, the most important thing to worry about is eating fiber fiber fiber fiber. For body recomp, protein is important, but for longevity it's FIIIIIIBBBBBEEEERRRRRRRRR

What is it about processed meat that makes it a greater cancer risk - is it preservatives, other additives, other? For example, would nitrate-free bacon still be considered “processed?” Thank you for being a no BS and empirically grounder disseminated of info. 🙏🏼

I love veggies idk how to not eat them lol. I am on a veggie protien diet trying to stick to mostly whiter meats per say. chickens and eggs and pork the other white meat hahahha. need to get some more fish in my diet though but man do I love veggitable mixes with my foods.

Ouch, I wonder if Shawn Baker will see this!! 😂great video Layne. 👍🏻

What qualifies as processed meats? Would ground beef be part of that?

Well said!

Great channel

What about paleo folks who get higher inflammation and LDL? Interesting about veggies getting pushed out by meats. Still we know there are certain byproducts of nest digestion- bad gut micro flora and also AGE compounds.

Meat and fruits

Cool stuff!

5:12 E.g. suppose you increase saturated fat in a person's diet. Then you can either reduce another source of calories, or increase net calories So is the effect the change in calorie source or the number of calories? Well from that you can take the increase in calories, and then compare against people who have that same increase in calories but with the same calorie composition profile as before the saturated fat increase So I guess the different statistical analysese do these kinds of things, but on many more factors in one go, right? "In truth, knowledge is a veritable treasure for man, and a source of glory, of bounty, of joy, of exaltation, of cheer and gladness unto him. Happy the man that cleaveth unto it, and woe betide the heedless." -Baha'i Teaching

What constitutes “processed”? That could mean anything from pink slime to smoked turkey. Hell, if we really wanted to be pedantic, just cutting meat off a carcass and throwing it on the grill is processing.

Thank you!

But how much risk do you take by eating red meat and heart disease?

How much was considered a serving a cup one fruit and was it 6 fruits and six vegetables a day or a combination? Three fruits three vegetables a day that had the best effect

well done!

all f&v portion numbers show is the individual's healthy user bias ranking or score. And, big surprise, it matches cancer incidences. Red meat by itself cant be bad for us. Its the wholest of whole foods.

Hang on... Haven't you made an assumption here. So, people who eat high amounts of red meat AND high amounts of fruits and veg are healthier. Is this because of the veg, the meat or because they are not eating grains starches and sugars? Would the same result come from eating higher amounts of read meat with less veg as long as they also avoid the seed oils, starches and grains? Or, would the same result come from very large amounts of fruits and veg, small amounts of red meat and less seed oils, starches, grains and sugars?

man, all this shows is HEALTHY USER BIAS. The group who eats high amounts of red meats and no fruit are less likely to be health conscious individuals (exercise less, smoke less, drink less, eat processed garbage). Everybody thinks red meat is bad for you so when you lower the red meat consumption you see better rates simply because of the healthy user bias. The group that ate high fruits AND red meat just proves that it is in fact the healthy user bias since it's hard to eat high amounts of red meat, high amounts of fruit and still eat processed garbage on top of that. The fruit doesn't "mitigate" the "harm" from red meat. There's no evidence that shows red meat causes cancer other than shitty epidemiology studies that don't control for the healthy user bias. Adding the high fruit to the high red meat group is a way to control for that healthy user bias which is why you get much better results. Fruit doesn't have magic curing abilities, that's insane and it's very weird how you fail to see this. epidemiology is incredibly flawed due to all the variables at play as you know obviously but to me, this study PROVES the healthy user bias and shows that red meat isn't bad for you.

What about dairy ?

Anyone ever gone to Germany? jeez they eat a lot of processed red meat! thats all you see in super markets there! i struggled to get chicken, turkey and steak when i was there, even at the butcher section its just filled with different hams! its bizarre. Wonder what there rates of certain cancers are.

Without psyllium husk I have no idea how somebody could eat 30g of fiber a day or whatever.

What is considered high amounts of processed meats? I eat 2-3 ounces of deli turkey everyday for lunch. However, I eat very high amounts of fruits and vegetables. Should I cut out the deli turkey or would that risk be cancelled out from the fruits and veggies. I’d like to hear your opinion. FYI, my eating happens have been consistent for 2 years and I’ve dropped 130 pounds. (From 330-200 at 6’4”)

Isn't bacon healthy ?

Wondering if it was the fruits, & vegetables, or was it the fiber found in fruits, & vegetables?

What is processed meat exactly? Meat that has been cooked? Once you cook the meat yourself isn't it processed at that point? I'm confused

Layne, i am an ultramarathon runner, so i don't resistance train. Why is it unhealthy? Today i ran 36kms

what about fish ?

Potatoes are a vegtable right

Pretty common sense though. If you are gonna eat a shit load of meat you better match that with a shit ton of fruits and veggies

Your must important video and hardly any seen it

Meat is good so as vegetables

Processed meats increases the risk by only 1% compared to the average population

Really interesting video, thanks. I'm wondering how much meat consumption where they testing against? 250g meat at every meal or only once a day, etc.?

So how many servings of fruits and vegetables for longevity?

Are sausages and salami included in processed meat?

Mmhm Statistics. Thanks for relying the info

Fruit on Cancer. Like feeding the Cancer?

what about meat and Alzhimers? i read there's a big link. In Japan and asians countries since adopting a more western heavy meat diet that there numbers have gone up a lot.
