Dr Michael Eades - 30 years of flawed nutritional science
30 years of flawed nutritional science. What will it take for change to be accepted?
Dr Michael Eades
From my experience as an author, clinician and long-term nutritional blogger, I will present my beliefs of what it will take to change from our current model of flawed research to one in which we in future accept only the evidence from high quality research studies.

If you look at nutrition labels on various foods, you’ll see that it is recommended that we eat 300 grams of carbohydrates per day on a 2000 calorie diet. Meaningless unless you put it in perspective. The average human has 5 liters of blood, 2 1/2 Coke bottles worth. Average blood sugar for a non-diabetic is around 100 mg/dL. That means for your entire volume of blood, you have one teaspoon of glucose. Those 300 grams of carbs break down into 1 1/2 cups of sugar. Your body has to dispose of all that sugar. So it puts out a massive amount of insulin to move it into your cells. How this advice (300 grams of carbs) became official is a prime example of government incompetence in action. Tom Naughton gives a great explanation of the process in his “Wisdom of Crowds” speech.

No, not government incompetence, but industry bribery. Modern government is just an extension of industry.
I started intermittent fasting, one meal a day, about 15 months ago. About a year ago I started paying attention to carbs, and greatly minimizing them. It takes a while, probably a month at least, but gradually it becomes clear just how bad carbs really are. They are literally addictive. Unlike fat and protein that make you feel full and not want to eat, carbs actually make you want to eat more. Carbs are inflammatory, causing joints to become inflamed increasing stiffness and decreasing range of motion. Carbs interfere with sleep and contribute to brain fog. This is not from reading, this is my actual experience over more than a year of eating sometimes strict keto, other times more paleo (low carbs like keto but more protein than keto) and sometimes eating more carbs. Even when I eat more carbs, its more compared to keto but still very low compared to modern normal diet recommendations. Yet even that low amount of carbs is enough to trigger all the bad responses. No wonder I feel amazingly better now on a low carb diet than I have ever felt in my entire life, even though I am over 60!
Wonderfully entertaining, but even more wonderfully informative and convincing that Dr Eades and his colleagues have been right all along. And I am benefitting from their wisdom and their careful research along with untold others whose names they will never know!
Fascinating connections! It was also found in a mummy from ancient China. “The Lady of Dai, also known as Xin Zhui, lived during the Han dynasty (206 BCE - 220 AD) and was the wife of the Marquis of Dai. Her tomb was discovered inside a hill known as Mawangdui, in Changsha, Hunan, China, in 1971 when workers were digging an air raid shelter. According to an autopsy, Xin Zhui was overweight, suffered from back pain, high blood pressure, clogged arteries, liver disease, gallstones, diabetes and had a severely damaged heart.”
The book Wheat Belly saved my life basically at the time that I had found it I was suffering from malnutrition to the point where I was no longer digesting my food, within 3 days of going gluten free my digestion started returning to normal.

This is very interesting, It seems to indicate that consuming wheat may be almost as detrimental as sugar, however I suspect what was happening is the Egyptians were converting large quantities of the wheat to beer and then consuming large amounts of ethanol which would be as bad as sugar.

I find it fascinating that even with all the data and many people's own experiences that point, to make it simple, LCHF diet is good and that even in this comments section are those saying only for some people does that work but others it doesn't and that they can't see what many of us do see with the epidemic which I see among my fellow Americans with poor health.. I will name drop some names... Dr. Eric Berg, Dr. Jason Fung, Dr. Sara Halberg, Dr. Ken Berry have been preaching for at least since I became interested in this the last 3 or 4 years (maybe longer for these docs) that i know of that the LCHF diet is the way we all should be eating or we will eventually succumb to what was my reason to look for answers which was bad health and diabetes type II which I thought was treated not correctly by my main stream physician. I was only getting worse with her treatments. Why can't people see that what we are eating is killing us? Is it because of what I call a conspiracy in medical community to keep us sick? Why doesn't anyone question anything anymore? There are so many food myths I grew up with, learning that most of it was BS has been a real treat these past 4 years. My favorite myth is that Wheat is good for us. And yet there will be haters which will have to comment even on my comments. Haters got to hate.
The literature is full of tales about the ancient everlasting conflict between nomadic hunter-gaterer or pastoralist populations and static "civilized" agricultural ones. The former being recognized as stronger, taller, more resiliant but loosing by the technological advance that civilisation brings. Mongols' strenght was famous, from China to Europe, for centuries.
It is worth noting that our ancestors were only able to consume the meat that they were able to hunt. It is unlikely that they could consume meat everyday. Most people struggle to hunt as it is actually very hard to do, and hard to be consistent day in day out.
Great info, but I really wish you had made sure to point out how our meats in stores and restaurants aren't the same as had always been in the past. The animals now are crammed into tight spaces and fed garbage rather than eating as God intended in pastures and out in the wild. HUGE difference....emphasis on the word HUGE because that's what we become if we eat the current meats commonly available throughout the meat industries, sadly.

That's a separate issue, the treatment and practices of raising animals for food. When raised in the most natural way possible it is the most optimal food for us to "thrive", not just survive.
I am aware that those in Egypt liked their grains. And back then their bread was not processed food as it is today. Moobs are found in men who are overweight, so certainly that would be a logical cause of their breast moobs. They did also eat animals. Eating seed oils is not the healthiest choice, as they have lots of calories. I have never heard before that wheat has phytoestrogens (which are a WEAK variation of estrogens found in humans, as Estradiol). In addition, phyto (plant) estrogens are Beta, and actually LOWER estrogen amounts in men and women and have been proven in multiple studies to be healthy for women with breast cancer and men with prostate cancer (and to prevent those cancers), while animal products have Alpha/growth stimulating properties. The humans who diss phytoestrogens, as in soy, ignore all of the animal hormones they eat in their daily meals. Humans have no need for any amount of non-human animal hormones. From my research, wheat GERM has some phytoestrogens, but the germ is a small part of the entire wheat kernel.
The message I get is, we need more minerals. Boron, Iodine, etc along with meat and eggs, particularly organ meat as in liver, not just muscle. We don't need a lot of meat, but we need to compensate the veggies with supplements, particularly minerals, and we need to pressure cook much of the veggies and grains to reduce the level of anti-nutrients. But that is what I have been doing. 1/4 tsp borax in my qt of water along with about 150 mg iodine (not mcg, yes 1000x recommended level) as potassium iodide crystals. We actually eat an excessive amounts of meat in many cases, and mostly the wrong ones. Liver is probably the most nutrient rich food one can eat. Must be grass fed.
That was an awesome talk!

Why is this not mentioned? And at 25:10 he mentions that human health declined when we switched from hunting and gathering to agriculture.

Interesting but I don't understand the title. It is not about the last 30 years of nutritional data at all. Plus, there are societies that admire fat, usually ones where there is a possibility for shortage, thus showing wealth. Would Egyptian teeth be as ground down if not for the sand?
I have been wondering why Egyptian mummified their dead with guts separated in jars? As all coffins, traditionally, were shaped for “one size fits all“ (assuming those who didn’t have a big big fat tummy) that impose a problem in the process of mummification. The solution ? Empty their guts into jars.

E.g., much of the advances in "life expectancy" are due to the discovery of antibiotics; yet under the stewardship of state health agencies they have been so misused and abused that they are expected to soon stop working altogether. Thousands are dieing, soon to be millions and eventually billions, due to the incompetence and corruption of the state, unless alternatives are found, some of which will more likely be traditional medicine that's being persecuted by the state. So you seem to be saying you'd choose a quack for brain surgery to save a few bucks.

What I don't understand is why would early man choose to eat the most difficult to obtain and hardest to eat and digest food source. Why on earth would they suddenly decide at some point to farm grains? They wouldn't of course unless they had been enjoying them as a considerable part of their diet prior to the agricultural revolution. I also have a problem with the meat built the brain theory as the brains primary "food source" is glucose and meat cannot provide glucose in any form as far as I'm aware. There's also the case of the blue zones where people have the longest and healthiest lives on the planet and they are all low red meat consumers. I'm open to all ideas, especially when backed by science and have an open mind to all ideas and concepts but I really need to have these questions of mine cleared up.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gluconeogenesis breaks fat down to produce glucose. Our digestive tract, the fact that we walk up-right and our brain size are proof that meat built the brain. The blue zones argument is like the Sodium argument (healthy populations around the world consume anywhere from 0.3g to 30g of sodium per day so excess sodium does not cause heart disease); correlation does not imply causation. As to why farm grains? Because it's easy to preserve and stockpile before refrigeration was invented. If you control land and stock piles of food you control everything.
A lot of Females find all criticism patronizing. FYI, for any who read past that comment: I discovered that I sometimes have throbbing headache, little bit above the neck, which might feel worse when you try to lay down to rest. One time it became so bad that I couldn’t sleep even after taken pain relief pills. Eventually I felt a urge to vomit. As soon as I threw up my stomach content, the headache went away. Recently this happened again after I ate some questionable food. Similar sequence of action took place. It’s safe to conclude that I had food poisoning. Otherwise times it was milder and I was able to sleep it out. Our gut indeed evolved to support more brain activity and health, and it can be compromised when your gut run into problems. My other hypothesis is the poisoning is caused by some questionable plant food.

The only problem i have with this is that the average neanderthal died very young. Besides that only the rich egyptians where mummies(because they could afford that) and only the rich could afford large quantities of meat. So blaming the carbs is still not justified.

Besides this if you want a lot of estrogens, eat cheese instead of carbs.

When did a plant based diet ever really remain plant. You people always eat out of packets and boxes. Kellogg's have a wonderful time making money out of vegans for a kick-off. To quote one Dr. Zoe Harcombe "Man is the only species clever enough to make his own food and stupid enough to eat it."
Yet medieval Europeans (heavily agricultural) had great teeth... up until the 16th century when sugar came in. I can believe that the types of plant used in agriculture are detrimental, but I wouldn't agree that a vegetarian diet per se is bad. In fact quite the opposite, especially if the varietals are right, along with higher CO levels and fertile soils. Lucy and the other so called human ancestors are either extinct varieties of humans, humans suffering from bone pathologies (e.g. rickets) or apes; the point being they (paleontologists) are often unable to clearly distinguish between species given the fragmented remains and very small sample sizes. The phenotypes are highly speculative, and more subject to artistic imagination than actual data (Lucy for example is a very fragmented specimen leaving a lot to speculation). Following conventional anthropology and paleontology is risky as a result of this poor quality data. Worse it is clouded by evolutionary theory. The creationist point of view provides an alternative perspective; that humans were originally vegetarian, eating meat was a later - less than ideal - allowance in a failing world. Ideally you would want to move towards increasing the proportion of your diet that is vegetarian.

While not scientific but certainly observational, IMO, it is safe to say high meat/low carb consumption works well for some people and the opposite works well for others. We are far from a once size fits all group of creatures. We certainly are not all allergic to the same things. I absolutely love bread. I bake bread and used to eat copious amounts of bread and in the last 5 years seem to be consuming more medications than food {BP, A1C, LDL weight all in the wrong direction}. Making drastic reductions in bread consumption, and a switch to more Rye based breads {sourdough breads are "SUPPOSED" to be better than white bread but don't like the taste}, made a major difference for me including weight loss. Would the same work for everyone else? Maybe for most but I doubt it for all. And if a switch to more meat less carbs occurred world wide, would we have the resources to feed the approximately 7.3 billion people on this planet?
Early Humans DID NOT hunt early MegaFauna to extinction. That's one of the Biggest MYTHS promoted by Modern Anthropology. To suggest that early hunters completely wiped out their food source is absolute nonsense. Early humans were in fact intelligent and possessed a very high level technological development. Suggesting otherwise demonstrates a lack of tool knowledge. Stone knives were incredibly sharp and when used to cut flesh did not easily dull. "Cavemen" were much more sophisticated than is generally believed. I am really enjoying Dr. Eades presentation except for the statements suggesting evolving humans cause mega-fauna extinction because of hunting. That's completely without any foundational support. There is however mountains of archeological evidence of a catastrophic event. Perhaps an unusually large Solar Flare that rapidly melted the global glaciation. The Mega Fauna went extinct because of Cataclysmic Events. Perhaps this good doctor is unaware of recent archeological discoveries.

As far as icongraphy is concerned you can take that as representative of the general population as magazine images are today - an idealised misrepresentation of the reality - the Pompeii victims as far as can be reconstructed, were little different to people today , although obesity was less prevalent

This is fascinating information about the PAST, but has no relevance to what we should eat today. First, for most people, the meat we can eat is not as healthy as the meat they could eat AND has lots of toxic chemicals in it. Second, no one in their right is eating as limited a plant- based diet as the farmers in the Kentucky region he was reporting on. So who cares what diseases they had? Third, we have lots of better scientific evidence on what diet is healthiest overall in the LONG-RUN, and it ain't low carb with lots of animal foods. For overall, long-term health, diets that are very low in fat (~7-15% of calories) and that are dominated by WHOLE plant foods (vegan or mostly vegan) have an unmatched track record that indicates they are the healthiest. OBESITY is related to a wide range of other diseases (diabetes, heart disease, cancers) and health problems (e.g., failing joints, low energy), and is an epidemic in America, with 70% of Americans being overweight or obese. So far, the all-you-can-eat diet that has achieved the best weight loss after one year in a randomized controlled study is a whole food plant-based diet with 7-15% calories from fat. Notice that this is a fraction of the fat intake found in diets that Americans commonly but misleadingly call “low-fat” diets. www.nature.com/articles/nutd20173 thebroadstudy.com/ Significantly, the original intervention only ran three months, but people who were on the diet during the experiment kept on the diet and kept losing weight from three to six month, and then maintained their weight loss from six to twelve months. DIABETES is a growing epidemic in America, with over one-third of Americans being pre-diabetic or diabetic. Very low carb, high-fat ketogenic diets have become popular, and these can achieve significant weight loss and improvement in biomarkers and blood glucose control. However, these diets are not really curing the underlying diabetes (carbohydrate intolerance and insulin resistance), they are merely hiding its symptoms by not feeding the body any significant amount of carbohydrates. The human body evolved to efficiently process large quantities of whole food carbohydrates, so the inability to process carbohydrates safely is not normal or healthy. However, WHOLE food plant-based diets with 7-15% calories from fat have been repeatedly demonstrated to bring diabetics’ blood glucose levels under control while having numerous other side benefits for heart health, inflammation, etc. For example, here is a randomized controlled trial in which a WHOLE food plant-based diets with 7-15% calories from fat brought diabetics’ blood glucose levels under control and lowered their LDL levels by 39% in just three weeks and on a diet with 73% calories from carbohydrates. To see an overview of the results, see the 2:47 mark in nutritionfacts.org/video/benefits-of-a-macrobiotic-diet-for-diabetes/ The direct link to the study is Soare A, Khazrai YM, Del Toro R, et al. The effect of the macrobiotic Ma-Pi 2 diet vs. the recommended diet in the management of type 2 diabetes: the randomized controlled MADIAB trial. Nutr Metab (Lond). 2014;11:39. Many people can’t believe a diet that is very high in carbs can cure diabetes for most people but that is because a) they never got their fat intake low enough to cure their insulin resistance, and b) the carbs they are eating are processed carbs that cause a faster rise in blood glucose levels than do WHOLE food carbs-especially when eaten in the context of lots of vegetables and fiber. In reality, all large, slim, and relatively diabetes free populations have historically gotten most of their calories from whole food carbs-rice, wheat, barley, potatoes, farro, millet, sorghum, spelt, corn, etc. HEART DISEASE is the #1 killer of men and women in the western world, and although we usually only label someone as “having heart disease” after they have an incident, in reality, the vast majority of westerners have diseased coronary arteries and generally had plaque build-up in their arteries by the time they were ten years old. This is not normal or healthy as the impaired functioning or our arteries gives rise to a wide range of other conditions and diseases (angina, heart attacks, strokes, erectile dysfunction, some migraines, dementia, neuropathy, diabetic nerve pain, diabetic retinopathy, macular degeneration, glaucoma, etc.). The only diet that has been shown to be able to stop even serious heart disease in its tracks and achieve some reversal of atherosclerosis in multiple multi-year studies-while dropping rates of major CVD events to zero or close to zero is a WHOLE food plant-based diets with 7-15% calories from fat. For example, see dresselstyn.com/JFP_06307_Article1.pdf www.dresselstyn.com/Esselstyn_Three-case-reports_Exp-Clin-Cardiol-July-2014.pdf Added sugars are NOT healthy, but in the context of the sugar-fat debate, it is worth noting that Dr. Esselstyn was able stop the progression of heart disease, achieve some plaque shrinkage, and avoid future major CVD events even in “death’s doorstep” heart disease patients who were compliant with his original diet-a diet which did NOT limit sugar. www.dresselstyn.com/site/study01/ www.dresselstyn.com/site/study02/ www.dresselstyn.com/site/study03/ CANCERS: In general, people eating a whole food plant-based diet have lower or much lower rates of various cancers and better cancer survival. Here is an ocean of related research: nutritionfacts.org/topics/cancer/ OXIDATIVE STRESS and INFLAMMATION are involved in most major chronic diseases. Significantly, the most anti-inflammatory diet you can eat if a whole food plant-based diet, and plant foods have on average, 64 times as much antioxidant punch as does the average animal food. Carlsen MH, Halvorsen BL, Holte K, Bøhn SK, Dragland S, Sampson L, Willey C, Senoo H, Umezono Y, Sanada C, Barikmo I, Berhe N, Willett WC, Phillips KM, Jacobs DR Jr, Blomhoff R. The total antioxidant content of more than 3100 foods, beverages, spices, herbs and supplements used worldwide. Nutr J. 2010 Jan 22;9:3. nutritionfacts.org/video/antioxidant-power-of-plant-foods-versus-animal-foods/ TOXINS: Toxic industrial and agricultural chemicals naturally accumulate in the fat of animals, and these toxins include chemicals that are obesogenic, diabesogenic, atherogenic, mutagenic, carcinogenic, neurotoxins, and endocrine disruptors (which disrupt fertility and reproduction). These toxic chemicals naturally accumulate at high levels in animal fat through the processes of bioaccumulation and biomagnification. Bioaccumulation: A cow eats grass with trace amounts of toxic chemicals in it, and some of those chemicals wind up in their fat, and as they eat more and more grass, the levels of toxic chemicals build up. Biomagnification: A predator (wolf, eagle, tuna, human) that eats other animals that have toxic chemicals built up in their bodies can wind up with extremely high levels of toxins in their bodies. The general rule to avoid toxic chemicals in your food is to eat as low on the food chain as possible, which basically means eating plant foods-but avoiding those that are sprayed heavily (e.g., non-organic strawberries). One side benefit of eating lots of whole plant foods is that they boost your body’s ability to detoxify itself. As a result, people who eat vegetarian and vegan diets typically have much lower levels of toxic chemicals in their bodies than do those who eat meat or meat and dairy. For example, see the following short video summarizing the research on one class of pollutants (links to the studies summarized in the video can be found by clicking “Sources Cited” under the video). nutritionfacts.org/video/flame-retardant-pollutants-and-child-development/ Then there is a mountain of studies showing the benefits of low-fat whole food plant-based diets for pretty much every health condition under the sun. Wanna' get rates of gallstones and diverticulitis to zero? VLF WFPB diets can do that. Wanna' reduce or eliminate acne and improve osteoarthritis? They can do that to. Wanna' get your risk of dementia as low as possible even though you have the genetic marker that predisposes you to greater dementia risk? They can do that too. Etc. Etc. Take care.

On the other hand, nutrient dense whole food plant based carbs such as vegetables, fruits, beans and moderate amounts of intact whole grains are healthy carbs just as nuts, seeds and avocados are healthy fats.

1. "everyone who wouldn't be healthy on meat and water was bred out", yet all the oldest civilizations (romans, greeks, indians and chinese) were all basically vegan who only had meat rarely. 2. the doctor giving the presentation is out of shape. this isn't really an argument but still. 3. the inuits are not the original form of humans. you think that living in greenland is the natural way of being human? everyone developed in a different way depending on the environment he was living in 4. since when the average diet is one of 3000 kcal? most humans require less than that 5. he automatically links the increase of calories with the consumption of meat. based on what? only he knows. in reality it seems more logical that humans started to eat more calories due to learning how to get more calories from plants (so from primitive forms of agriculture) 6. we are clearly not herbivores nor carnivores. nature is not a librarian which separates into distinct categories but it's a mess of a process that has thousands of variables 7. the part about egypt is really ridiculous. he thinks those statues are statues of the soldiers or of the common people? the fat statues reflect the rich egyptians, who, contrary to the popolus, ate a lot of meat. the same thing happened in the middle age. the rich, kings, dukes etc. all ate meat, and were all obese and would die early due to their poor diet whereas the poor people, eating mostly plants, were slim and lived longer. he shows the mummies with clogged arteries and he thinks that those people were eating carbs? is he stupid or what? he thinks the common egyptians were mummified? it was the rich one who got mummified, so the ones eating a lot of meat. what a way to twist the evidence. i don't know if he's lying or just mistaken. he dismisses this huge thing just by quoting 1 study, ignoring all the rest of the evidence which points to the opposite of what he said or to the fact that nowadays, in modern studies, hearth disease is close to NON EXISTENT in vegans, which again proves him 100 % wrong. 8. the whole "our ancestor" thing is so stupid i am amazed at how many people bring it up all the time. our ancestors prayed to make it rain. should we keep doing it because our ancestors did? all the studies pretty much show that a vegetable diet is superior in terms of health to anything else, so what value does imitating our ancestors exactly bring?

Enrique Martinez see right there you’re conflating two completely different. Almost everyone is ignorant to what a carbohydrate is....so ... Some hundreds of millions of years ago, plants developed the ability to take energy from the sun (along with carbon dioxide and water) and make carbohydrates. The process, called photosynthesis, allowed plants to store energy in the form of carbohydrates. This allowed the flourishing of organisms that lacked the ability for photosynthesis, since they were now able to obtain energy by eating carbohydrates in plants. (The entire animal kingdom) 🧠 runs on glucose We are supposed to use carbohydrates (fruits, vegetables seeds...) for energy. A constant supply is not required but explaining glycogen and other metabolic processes is a different topic completely but 2 evolutionary adaptations for our species along the way include amylase for starch digestion and the ability to use animals for energy in times where our preferred fuel source is not available, including the whole Keto thing during famines Where you are correct is that we are not supposed to consume our preferred energy source in refined forms.

frank brown You ought to give it a listen, he’s a pretty entertaining guy! Learned a bit about dietary isotopes, and was with him until he skated out on thin ice and got sloppy on the Egyptian segment of the talk. At that point it was an eye rolling marathon. All in all, though...entertaining!🌱
Take a spectrometer, classify food groups according to their "Frequency", align these foods with the "frequency" of the photon energy radiating from the Sun at 2 hour intervals beginning at sunrise and you will see your first clue about " When to eat What". The 24 hour circadian cycle is the master regulator, and peripheral regulator of Metabolic function both Glandular and organ. The moon cycles regulate both menstrual and gestation cycles. It is NOT what you eat but more specifically "when you eat what you eat". We are much more advanced than Paleolithic man. We are updatable, upgradable cybernetic beings capable of re-programming DNA function through conscious intention and re-patterning of brain frequencies thereby modifying cellular environment. The Quanta and fractals hold the information that codes function NOT molecular food particles known as food. This mass of nutrients is not the Code that drives function or life. This limiting view limits self expression and ultimately affects the rate of aging. Time to move beyond food. Q-Life answers all. Peace
