Office again and the Dr said you were type 2 with obesity, high triglycerides,high Bp, hi glucose, now your fine she then asked “what did you do?” I said the simple answer is “I stopped feeding my sugar Sugar,sugar!” She didn’t talk to me anymore.

Don: I am 66 years old and had a similar experience with my doctor, I was taking metformin for type two diabetes and my blood sugar was still out of control, I looked on the internet and found out about keto diet and intermittent fasting and decided to try it out, I quit taking metformin and started going to the gym, keto diet, and intermittent fasting instead. Then at my next doctors appointment I told him what I was doing and he told me I had to take metformin and there was no way I could reverse my condition without taking the metformin. My A1C at the time was 7.3, I told him we were going to find out because I wasn't going to take metformin I was going to fix what was really wrong with me....eating to much sugar and carbs. I was proven right and he was show to be the moron I suspected he was.....40 days later A1C was 5.6 Blood pressure has dropped from stage two to better than perfect and I have been going to gym religiously and feel better than I have in the last 25 years. I also have lost 36 lbs.

@@sandy-rr1by I use Xylitol, sometimes called Xylit or birch sugar. It's a sugar alcohol that is poorly absorbed in the gut but metabolized by gut bacteria into short chain fatty acids which are supposed to be good. It's like a solutable diatary fiber in my understanding. The downside is that it is driving bacterial life in the gut what leads to gas. However, if you start low (like a teaspoon per day) than the bacteria can adopt and consume it in the small intestines, imho the trouble comes it it gets to the large intestines or the colon. It's approx. 20 times as expensive as sugar which helps to reduce the consumption. I also find that natural vanilla and even vaniline enhances the felt sweetness so that you can reduce the sugar (or Xylit) while having the same tastiness...

This is so true. I had type two after going on low carb reversed my condition and reduced my medication from 5 to one; this happened in only three months. So many health improvements, I'll never go back to a high carb or sugar diet. Best medical advice you can introduce.

Dr. Unwin, I just love the way you speak. I have been low carbing for about the last 20 years so my liver results are usually pretty good, but recently I ate two bags of Halloween candy (rare slip up) and had blood tests the next day. My doctor was quite concerned that my ALT and AST came back 5 xs higher than I had ever had them before. In the 180 and 110 range (USA). She sent me for an ultrasound of the liver.. fortunately all was well and I am back to normal now, but it shows you how sugar can do damage -- serious damage -- and you wouldn't even know.

You've got to remember though, the studies on intermittent fasting were done on men. Women's bodies are different and cannot withstand the stress of going without food, especially carbs... important hormones are knocked out of balance, estrogen levels drop resulting in irregular and lost menstrual cycles, and thyroid hormones decrease resulting in slowed metabolism and hypothyroidism. It's clear that fasting and low carb diets work amazingly for men, but not so well for women long term.

Dr. Pelz here on KZread has a whole channel about how women can do fasting safely and effectively. Both men and women evolved in the same paleolithic environment, with the same foods and occasional lack of food. It doesn't make any sense that men would evolve to thrive in those circumstances while women would evolve to wither away and suffer. Evolution works the same way on everyone - species are whittled down to perfectly match their environment. If some people have a bad reaction to fasting, it is due to epigenetic factors, i.e. the damage they have done to their body through living at variance with its natural requirements.

Told my doctor I had cut out all processed foods and refined carbs, and was doing keto/ LCHF. She looked at me like I had told her I was eating my own sh+t. My HBA1C was 6.5, was told nothing to worry about.

Those two numbers are satisfactory, true... But I had to find out by myself that my blood sugar regularly spiked to over 200... Regularly as in at every meal.... So, by the time my doc would have figured out that I had a glucose metabolism issue, I probably would have been full blown diabetic... Or dead from a heart attack, since I had a calcium score of 500.. Our medical establishment is like a fire department that warns you that your house is on fire when it's already burned down.

I agree, my GP (specialized on internal medicin) looked to my blood panel (complete: lipids, liver, sugar, kidneys...), said that it is fine, just here and there marginally higher and described a Statin for slightly increased LDL-C. To my question about all other numbers he said that is was fine. I asked for a print-out (to the annoyance of the front desk nurse who want to charge me 20 cts for the paper - LOL, while the statin I was prescribed on is about 1000 USD/year and thats supposed for the rest of my life). Back to the point: my Hdl-c was 30 and my TRIG was over 300 mg/dl. A clear sign of insulin resistance and maybe even pre-diabetes. Hypoglycemic dislipemia and I had to diagnose it myself while my GP didn't recognize it (just because the fasting glucose was fine, HbA1c was not measured). I stopped the Statin after 8 weeks, went on LCHF - for 7 months now - and lost 10 kg (20 pounds). To monitor my blood levels I bought a glucose/ketone/uric acid tester (7 USD) and a lipid panel tester (120 USD) in order to test in a higher frequency. HDL is now 50 mg/dl and rising while TRIG is 80 and falling. Funnily LDL-C dropped also 10%. In the Framingham Offspring Risk Calculator my CVD odds ratio fell from 1.6 ("very high risk") to 0.7 ("low risk") - and that on lifestyle and food only. AND: I don't think Doctors are evil money-making monsters. I think they are badly trained in the fields of nutrition and physiological chemistry. Unfortunately, while the science has created a lot of new information on metabolic disorder, the medical practice is still locked in the "fat is bad - eat 5 x a day a lot of carbs" doctrine of the 70ies.

I just commented but I want to add more. I was suffering, health wise. I continually gained weight even when I wasn't eating that much. I couldn't figure it out. I thought that I had auto immune disease because I had terrible skin reactions that lasted for weeks. Flare-ups. Even had to go to emergency rooms late at night for cortisone shots, antibiotics and a slew of other medications so many times I have lost count. I didn't know what to do. So I wanted to see if I could cure it with changing my diet. Process of subtraction/addition/subtraction of foods till I found that the carbs and dairy were causing the flare ups. I haven't had an incident since I began keto. So it all ties in and makes sense. I wish I had discovered keto way, way before. I believe I could have avoided all those sicknesses and excess antibiotics/medication/pain killers. Oh well. Better late than never right? 🙂

Thank you for the informative video…very informative for my situation. Here in Canada we look at ALT and AlK phosphase as part of the standard lipid profile. I believe we can request GGT as an add on test. Will do so! I’ve had NAFLD now for over a decade (now age 47) and quite possibly since my childhood years. My diet consisted of too many carbs, sugars my whole life. 6’ tall, was 220lbsat max and now down to 180 after reducing sugar to literally nothing and carbs down to minimal. I’m still suspecting excess insulin production as the root cause of my issues and am extremely sensitive to any carbs. Ie. sleep disruption I wish you were located locally but thank you for posting this. I’ll ensure I follow a more strict no carb lifestyle :)

Not only interesting, lifesaving! Thank you.

Please give a list of healthy numbers for a blood test panel for all.

Finally a simple explanation for us simple people

My mom is not statistically significant or peer reviewed but her experience has had real significance among her circle of friends and family. 22 months ago, my 80 year old mother finally had a follow up appointment with her physician which was delayed for months because her doctor has been in charge of treating Covid patients in the hospital and in nursing homes and was not able to meet with her. She had a full blood panel taken for this visit and her doctor was astounded at the progress she had made during the last year. She is now no longer diabetic and she was instructed to stop taking insulin after having been on it for 12 years. Her doctor also praised her kidney function which has never looked better. Also, she couldn't believe that her total cholesterol was only 139, with LDL of 67, HDL of 60, and triglycerides of 82 which is a big improvement for her. According to the Framingham Heart Study, these numbers mean that she is virtually "heart attack proof" as many plant based doctors have noted. Her physician mentioned that she is reconsidering the diet for her family based on this experience. She also asked my mom to share her experience with our community after the pandemic. All of these results are exactly what I had hoped would occur. Here is the menu that I had developed for her to try to mimic what she was used to eating -> "GSP Mother's Menu" - While this menu is not a pure whole foods plant based diet, it appears to be health promoting enough to work for her. My understanding is that low carb diets are a workaround that do not address the root cause of diabetes which is excess intramyocellular lipids and the resulting insulin resistance (excess saturated fats and refined sugar/flour are the most common cause of this metabolic system failure). Cheers!

Thank you so much!! I went to so many doctors and non told me anything about high carbs.

In 2001 I was diagnosed with diabetes and driving school bus, shortly public transportation, 6 years. When I became insulin dependent, I left transportation. With questions about triglycerides, just answered, thank you. Understanding diabetes. I make pictures. I am no scientist.

Sat 11-13-21. Absolutely wonderful information for T2D, and any one wanting to lose weight. Dr David Unwin, it would be very interesting if you and Dr Ken Berry, Tennessee USA, who stresses low carb to carnivore to heal the body of so many health issues.

Interesting results. You’re doing great work for your patients. How do your patients do wrt LDL on the low carb diet? Is high LDL associated with higher CVD? If so, is there any concern there?

It looks like millions of patiens lives could have been saved decades ago but for missing information like this that has been well documented for years, even since the early pre insulin Jag findings and fasting. With just over 500,00 health care proffesionls on the register mybe a memo to all of them would have a greater impact and an appology for taking so long to solve this issue to all their patients in thier care would be something to concider.

It’s all been planned to make everyone sick producing crap food, getting everyone addicted, make us spend our money in shops and then on meds. They call it progress yet nothing more than capitalism = sick society mentally and physically

Need to put the 3.2M in the graphic for better visual comparison and move the banana in graph up for easier scanning. Otherwise, great .Why isn’t there a low carb GP in Canberra?

My doc, who is a very nice guy, said he had never seen anyone lower their ldl and total cholesterol with diet alone, before me. He still wanted to talk about statins, though he didn’t push. Oh yes, my HDL/triglyceride ratio is

Awesome

This is brilliant!!!

Thanks for this video! After reading and watching a lot of info on fatty liver, I’m convinced that this is where diabetes makes its home. The pancreas issues, compromised beta cells, is a secondary result of too much sugar/fructose. I wish doctors went right after that testing and diagnosis and start their patients on clearing the liver fat out. An understanding by patients of the metabolic processes might lead to more compliance?

Hi. I had fatty liver on U sound 16years back I was asked if I was alcoholic. The operator of scan said they see this more now (16years back!) Nothing was followed up with me. I had high triglycerides and have had small stroke at 55yrs. Blood pressure up. Heart calium scan 65percentile. I discovered i got blurred vision an hour after cake. I pee protein sometimes. Minòr kick stand degradation. Xmas I ate 6 sweets and had a couple of wines and a beer. I felt so poorly. I measured fasting bg glucose and was 6.4 cleary abovr normal of 5.0 (7.0 up is T2 ). I looked into this stuff on youtube with rob lustig. Sten eckberg. Ben bickman. Jason fung. Ken berry. Dr bos etc etc and was pleased to seee dr unwin video. The strength of character to admit knowledge gaps is lacking in every gp ive know and they get very defensive if you have read up. Fortunately for the wirlds health cogs are now cast and they are beginning to groan into motion. This life saving knowledge is gradualy filtering through and even the most luddite health care providers who were tought 30yrs ago from books written 20years before that are beginning to wake up. Fasting insulin level is massive benefit rather than hba1c or fasting bg - as neither show the pancreas is having to work say 3-5x normal to keep bg ok. So your sick and damaging things for years prior to T2. Essentially missing the boat and walking blind into T2 when simple test 8years before would have woken need for dietary change. Also healthy Fats are good e g. Kerrygold grass fed butter, avocado oil and good olive oil, red meat fat. Cheeses. Just dont have carbs and sugar with them. LDL is not the bad guy. Its normal. Needed and healthy. Its not Bad. It is turned Bad by having excess sugar in blood often. This glycates the LDL making it small and dense... these now stick to your artery linings and are the seed of arterial plaques/atherosclorosis/heart attack/stroke /pulmonary embolism. Drop sugar. carbs and your bg goes down.. Blood pressure goes down.. HDL goes up.. Triglycerides goes down.. Fatty liver clears.. Arterial plaque growth stops.. Existing plaques reduce and blood flow increases.. Prediabetes reverses.. T2 Reverses.. Massive weight loss.. Arthritic joint pain reduces.. Polysystic ovary reduces boosting fertility.. Dementia and Altzheimers improve..

It's mostly because our modern life style & the toxic food ie: junk food, poor food, and luck of both right informations & minerals in our bodies.. Thank you for sharing this video.

and btw you can have low normal blood sugar and still have negative effects cause of high insulin so its not only the high blood sugar its also high insulin an i would say high insulin is even more damaging then high glucose

Yes, insulin can be elevated for decades and be doing quite a bit of damage behind the scenes - all with fairly normal glucose levels. Therefore, it is important to test for ketones so you know how insulin is behaving.

Is it possible to receive that list presented by Dr. Unwin, which shows what product break down into who many teaspoons of sugar?

if you have unexplained weight loss, I advice you consult it to a doctor to be checked properly for any hidden medical conditions.

The NHS is a fix and repair service not a health service

I've done low carb in the past with good results. Went away from it and more recently have had a problem with headaches. I'm not sure if migraines or what, although a sibling has had migraines... I've gone back to low carb and the headaches seem to be gone.

Thank you Dr. Unwin. I've followed a low carb high fat diet for a couple years to the degree that I follow a Keto diet. My weight fell rapidly at first and then stabilized, it has been stable for 2 years. Mostly I eat one substantial meal a day, usually breakfast eg steak, mushrooms, tomatoes followed by grazing from the refrigerator on cheese, butter, berries and cream throughout the rest of the day as I feel like. I don't count calories or grams of carbs but I now have very low body fat just by eating when and how much I feel like. I no-longer take milk in tea or coffee but pouring cream (or drink those black). Milk is not low carb but cream is. To try low carb I suggest being strict about it and sticking with the experiment for at least a month to give your body the time it needs to change from burning carbs to burning fat (your body prefers carbs to fat at first, give it the opportunity to adapt by cutting out carb consumption as much as possible initially, just cutting down is not sufficient to get your body to switch). The best thing I ever did was to go low carb.

WROOOOONG, non organic cattle and pigs are fed with GMO glyphosate treated corn and soy . Add antibiotics to fight crowed conditions causing infections, steroid and growth hormones, synthetic amino acids designed to metabolize corn and soy that disrupt our own amino acid chains, you have a perfect storm of shit meat burgers you are shoving down your throat. If you start with shit meat the processing aspect should be the least of your worries. I wont even mention carcinogenic nitric salts, endocrine disrupters found in colorants and taste enhancers, I have said enough already.

Processed meat they sell are not healthy with all the additives and toxins. Only fine if you smoke, cute or whatever yourself and know exactly what goes into it

So what tests do we need to do to check it earlier to make sure?

I'm trying to find the guidance video you mentioned on the RCGP site. Can't seem to figure out where it is. Trying to figure out if I need a liver scan and? if I do ... what will it do to help me? I've already reversed type 2 diabetes and my last blood work showed improvement all around - but not normal yet. But, that blood work was taken 4 months ago and I continue low carbohydrate intake and feel that I am probably healing slowly. *I feel great! Energy all the time (mental and physical) and think this is an odd time to suddenly decide I need a liver scan.

Years ago, my GI doc diagnosed fatty liver, and when I asked how to treat it, he told me to lose weight. How, I asked, what should I be eating? He had no clue. The internet had conflicting advice. 2 years ago I discovered Dr. Berry, went dirty keto, and in 3 months my liver function tests were normal. My weight has not really changed, so I am starting IF and carnivore to get that taken care of, and treat the rheumatoid arthritis.

You sound like a caring doctor. My GP practise couldn’t give a toss about their patients and I’m not exaggerating.

There are different types of sleep apnea. My mom has central apnea. I had very small airways and snored even while using a c-pap or v-pap. My mom is 84 and has done well on cpap for past 25 years. I had double jaw surgery in 2017, Dr moved both jaws forward. I no longer have sleep apnea and my diabetes and metabolic syndrome are improving with lo carb diet and fish oil.

Agree with this. I would add that in my view the liver acts to buffer blood glucose by synthesising glycogen under the influence of insulin. Excess blood glucose above what is required for metabolism is stored largely in the liver as glycogen. Hepatic glycogen can quickly be converted back to blood glucose when required during fasting conditions. Fatty liver significantly impairs this function of the liver as hepatocytes are full of fat blocking glycogenesis. They cannot effectively buffer the blood sugar associated with excessive calorie containing diets and the result is type 2 diabetes. The key to reversing this situation is removing the fat from the liver which can be done relatively quickly with severe calorie restriction for a few weeks as Professor Taylor has shown. This should be the standard of care offered by the NHS to all newly diagnosed type 2 DM and fatty liver disease.

The liver stores up to 100gm of glycogen whereas muscles store 500 to 1000g of it depends on how muscular you are. Up to 30% of glucose is converted to fructose in the liver when blood glucose is high.

It is so sad that we trust our doctors - I went Paleo felt so healthy - then my doctor put the fear of God in me as my cholesterol was high - so I went 15 years longer getting more and more sick in both body and brain - I now through my own research understand that doctors are following wrong science on cholesterol - my cholesterol now is rocket high and I am pleased to say at 54 - I feel AMAZING and all my crazy health issues have nearly reversed - plus my brain has calmed down - I am now a Carnivore - 2.5 years - eat loads all day - 5foot 6 and I weigh between 58 to 62 kilos - eating lots and lots of tallow, duck fat and even begun to eat raw beef fat as I now realise it is great for brain health. So sad that the medical profession is keeping us sick. Well done to you Dr Unwin - it is just so sad the NHS and the BMA are ignoring everything. I have had to educate my doctors - but now have no intention to ever go back to the doctors.

How do you explain that going on to high carb my GGT went from 27 to 14? And my TG is 0.6.

Thank you! Regarding GGT, Koenig & Seneff have found, that GGT 60 years ago was below 20 in men, and below 10 in women. GGT 50 (the false high range of GGT ) reflects an over 2 fold risk in all cause mortality, CVD, and cancer. The ALT range 50 years ago was below 25. The final proof of health is not simple blood tests, but Watt per kg bodyweight, at lactic acid 1.5mMol…. 4 Watts per kg at this low level of LA is Proof of good health
