What was your issue with too much fat, if you don't mind me asking out of curiosity? I find it interesting to read others' experiences as it helps to understand the bigger picture. From my understanding, there are quite a few "troubleshooting" issues, one of which when it comes to too much fat is suddenly upping your intake too much and not phasing into it to give your gall bladder enough time to adapt to the acid demands (for one adaptations of several that must take place in the digestive system).

@@jamesm.9285 2 problems that i have encountered with keto 1- too much calculating of your macros to a ridiculous level to "stay in a ketogenic state" 2- i found eating alot of fat rich food to be unpleasant to my stomach as it get me to be nauseous. Keto diet overcomplicates the concept of energy balance. I hope that help 🙏

@@royalmesh7440 Very intresting, well idk about you but i find that at least after i wake up and just go outside and go for a bikeride i feel a bit different when i didin't had my breakfast, i feel a very subtle lightheadedness but it's so subtle that i find it kind of enjoyable, and my mental clarity increases and yeah after you wake up everyone is essentially in ketosis so i think it may be that so that's my way of entering ketosis if i want.

congratulations! keep up the good work

@@a.w.h_957 thank you 👍

Ikr.. props to Dr.Layne for giving out quick free info on which he spent decades of his life.

@@vijaysudharsan4445 he’s totally right too in that, its not fancy or pretty, but its true. Facts dont care about our bias’s!! Evidence is everything!

He's definitely the best in the business

Agree 100%!

Kills me everytime. Layne should have millions of followers the problem is what layne says isnt sexy. He gives real information and facts with evidence. People are idiots and want sexy bullshit like that scumbag scam artist liver king. Its a shame

That literally made me laugh out loud!

Pottengers human (a fake KZfaq channel lol) says he ate 10,000 calories of meat a day for several days and didn’t gain any weight lol!

Yes, there are many Tour de France riders now who train on low carb (to keto/fat adapt to prevent the bonk) but then on race days also take in massive amounts of carbs for ultimate performance. Sort of the best of both worlds.

I pretty much do the same but maybe two higher carb days a week. It makes it so much more sustainable to add a day or two of higher carbs. I couldn’t imagine doing keto or low carb full time lol, F that!

not "Calorie heavy", but "calorie dense". And pasta is not considered that calorie dense, now different is if you put cheese and salsa etc., other calorie dense foods that are refined carbs/sugars that we must avoid are chocolate, ice cream, cookies like oreos, twinkies, that sort of stuff, they have a lot of calories in a less volume. Completely different from carbs coming from salads (vegetables), these are complex carbs, you can eat 600 grams of lets say tomato, lettuce, onion and not reach 50grams of carbs (but you have a lot of fiber) so you stretch your stomach to the point you start signaling leptin. So yeah, that is what I do too in some sense, I eat 1.2kg of salad (the one I described above) divided in 2 meals with 600grams of meat divided in 2, 3 cup of coffees with 200ml of milk each one. With that I don't even get to 120grams of carbs + sugar (milk). But remember, you need carbs to fuel Anaerobic exercises, if you are empty on glycogen and you don't have enough lactic acid, your body will use blood glucose and that is going to be a bad day (Hypoglycemia)

Glad you found something that works for you!

@@AnotherFancyUser you do know that your body can make glucose from protien? Carbohydrates are a non essential macro! Fat is an essential macro!

@@jaydajediful so you eat your 11g of essential fatty acids needed, now whats your excuse for eating over 100grams a day which aren't essential. Gluconeogenesis is an inconvenient process for the body which proves the Importance of carbs. How much protein is being stored as glycogen?

So u just went in a caloric deficit and lost some weight. Lmao. Calories are king. Specific foods dont make people fat

@@DarkoFitCoach Some guy said he ate 10,000 calories of meat a day for several days and gained no weight lol!

@@Teddy-jf5xg all lies. Calories are king and plenty of dumbasses who believe in fad diets. Ur right my homie

High fat has lowered my blood pressure actually. Don't even think it's the high fat because even if I go high protein and moderate to low fat, my BP stays around the 100ish/70ish range. If I go high carb, it shoots up to 130ish/90ish.

@@phen0mize you’re probably overweight and just seeing acute benefits from a temporary depletion of glycogen and the caloric deficit you’re putting yourself in. Cutting carbs to the point of inducing a calorie deficit always lowers a substantial amount of glycogen quickly and when you’re overweight any bit of weight loss is beneficial for blood pressure and/or blood markers. It’s not that low fat is somehow miraculous. It’s the caloric deficit you’re putting yourself in. If calories were equated you’d see no change.

@@gabriellambirth8448 I am 5'9" and 160lb . I am not trying to completely refute you. I am just stating a point that higher fat actually works better for some people.

@@phen0mize well in that case man I dunno. 5 9 160 seems healthy. I’m trying my best to repeat stuff I heard Layne say. He usually equates the benefits of keto or higher fat low carb to the calorie deficit alone and your ability to adhere to the diet and stay in a calorie deficit. A calorie deficit always lowers blood pressure. You could be in a calorie deficit with carbs if you wanted. You may just have a hard time actually staying in a caloric deficit when the diet consists of more carbs because of your inability to adhere to the diet and keep the calories equally low when you eat carbs

@@gabriellambirth8448 I do tend to eat way more when eating higher carb. At least more often.

You probably did it wrong. Look at Shawn Baker. Not a small guy. Eats a ton and works out. You probably ate too little.

@@jaghad Had his medical license revoked 😂😂😂

@@Teddy-jf5xg got it back😁😁😁

@@jaghad I did this back in the late 90's. I did the Atkins Diet. If I remember right, I was taking in less than 50 or was it 30 grams of carbs per day. Protein was high, but strength plummeted. That particular diet consisted of a lot of eggs, cheese, meat, sour cream, and some nuts. I probably should have taken in more in the way of Greens, but I didn't. My best on calorie intake was 1800 - 2200 per day, which is not too much for someone going from 230 lbs to 195 lbs. But like I say, strength plummeted, and final body comp was not good. A few people told me my breath was bad....but that's normal when you're in Ketosis. My appetite was also diminished, which is also normal while in Ketosis. I then switched to the Ripped Diet, which is 50 - 55% carbs, 25% -30% protein, and 15 - 20% fat, of whole foods.. Kind of a Flexitarian diet. I've been doing that for the last 23 years....and very happy with it. The Ripped Diet is by Clarence Bass. He was the Q&A columnist for Weiders Muscles&Fitness magazine, for 18 years. He's written 17 books on leanness...and health. I really like his stuff. He also has some of the lowest body fat percentages ever recorded. A real good man, too.

@jaghad No, he didn't. He surrendered it voluntarily while an investigation was undertaken. The investigation cleared him, and they returned his license.

U do count calories by counting macros. They cannot be seperated

I love them too 😋😂

I think this was in reference to the 'Rice Diet' by Walter Kempner, MD. No direct link that you asked for, but that might help you find out more

@@JustRecent KZfaq doesn't allow links anyway these days so you did your best

@@JustRecent thank you

shhh..his worshipers dont want to hear their messiah is wrong

The Randle cycle is not about digestion. It's about the substrate competition between fat and carbohydrates at the cellular level for oxidation. As the Randle cycle happens continuously around the body at multiple sites, when you are in energy balance your body is able to oxidize both concurrently without having fat or carbohydrate be rerouted to the liver and/or adipose tissue. But I get your point as I thought of the randle cycle as well.

@@adriananis2 I was being too simplistic for sure! I just don't understand the push for being in a caloric deficit. If you're always in a calorie deficit you are wasting away as you can't be anabolic and catabolic at the same time. Eliminating the Randell cycle has allowed me to eat more, never be hungry, and put on minimal fat while adding muscle! Everyone talks about not eating processed foods well that's all the proof I need to belive the Randle cycle plays a big role! But people would rather eat less just to keep their donut! IIFYM and constant snacking while trying to stay under a certain calorie count is moronic!

@@jaydajediful congratulations! I agree with you about people being obsessive with iifym and calorie counting. I don't diet per se but I keep an eye on my weight 3 times a week - that works for me as self regulation. If I wasn't weak, not mixing carbs and fats would be the right thing to do for me.

@@adriananis2 if you're happy and healthy you already won my friend!

I agree. Less nutrients in processesed carbs

Haha i give one for the algorithm😉

Ps I'm scared of pasta now and bread and grains I try to limit once or twice a week unless I lower my macros for fats. I just grown to like fats since it's harder for me to cook.
