The best ever presentation. I'm living proof. The most liberating realisation after overcoming obesity since I was 8 years, ruined my life, it wasn't my fault. I'm 58. At 56 I either had to find the truth myself or die. I had to throw away everything I was taught and seek the truth. Self educated myself. Key. Seeking truth and educating yourself. I went from 115kg to 62kg in 10 months. 18 months later I'm 65kg. Off all medication. Reversed diabete. Anaemia. I can't list all healed medical conditions. Lot of challenges society doesn't support this but don't let that be an issue. You have control. No one else. Bless you all. Xox .

So happy for you that you found the answers you needed, but what is so impressive is that your discipline and love for life gave you the motivation to correct your body chemstry through eating what your body needs for nourishment. Even at 58, you can still look forward to several decades of a healthier life, with more energy than most people.

Wish I found this years ago. I’m 55. Very carb sensitive and addicted to carbs. So many symptoms, I finally stopped eating all carbs and then started watching all these sugar, fats, vegetable oil lectures. My joint pain is improving, I’m no longer sleepy all day, I can go all day without a nap, I’m not starving constantly. I was too addicted. I’m only 4 weeks since no carbs, but this is pretty mind boggling. I ate no fat everything and worked out all my life. Felt terrible with chronic pain. All better now. Eating everything we were taught would make you fat. Just remember, cream and butter and bacon and eggs really can make you forget sugar and carbs. It’s true.

My whole family was morbidly obese, EXCEPT my grandfather. He was never ate any flour or sugar, only in the World War II, when the quality food was scarce. And he was insanely strong, lifting 200 kgs of weight, and bending nails with his fingers. He was never got sick, not even a cold or flu. He passed away five years ago, aged 102. My family said: "he got good genes"! Yeah, the genes, of course. I try to live like him, he is my role model.

It’s now Christmas and I have lost 20lbs eating the things I enjoy and basically eating 2 meals a day while not feeling empty hungry. My hip arthritis is no longer painful after driving for an hour my knee joints are no longer painful and getting up and down on them is easier. I am more mentally alert and my mood is more relaxed. Waiting for my annual checkup at the doctors when I wish to remove medications I have been on for years. Stubbornness is what has stopped me in the past and eating conveniently.

I’ve lost 500 lbs following a carnivore lifestyle (yes, not a typo!). I failed every diet and lap band surgery. The carnivore diet has given me the elusive “off switch” that I never had before. I don’t restrict my food, I don’t track macros. I simply eat meat until I am satiated. People tell me eating this way of eating is restrictive and dangerous. But at 52 years old I feel and look better than I did in my 20s. My doctor is amazed at my transformation. I have my life back and I look forward to growing “healthy old” and not being a burden on my beautiful family. Life is great now. Keto/carnivore is healing in so many ways.

@DCD As Dr. Jason Fung sais: If you want to lose weight, don't eat and your body will burn your fat. It's logic, right. Thing is with a low fat diet and restricting calories your are constantly starving. With a ketogenic diet combined with fasting your aren't. Both go hand in hand. Your insulin resistance can heal, as you are fasting 16, 18, 20 hours a day without having an overwhelming feel of hunger and when you eat you can eat as much as you want until your are not hungry any more. And you will feel saturated by eating fats and protein and it will last a long time. Also fat and protein won't skyrocket your insulin, which is even better to cure your insulin resistance.

OMG, I feel like this video was made to explain why have battled my weight my entire adult life. I have only just started on a low carb diet three weeks ago. My brain fog has reduced significantly, i have lost 5 kg and I have way more energy . About 12 weeks ago a dietitian told me reason I am overweight is because I am lazy. She said that I choose fruit for dinner is because I don’t want to cook. I was confused, because I cook a conventional meal every day, I just prefer fruit. After this video I feel as though I am on the right track, and I did not follow her low-fat, high carb diet, because I have tried them before and I have lost wight, then put it back on again, thank you Dr Mason, I needed this tonight. So glad to have an Australian Doctor sounding so positive about this way of eating. Cheers and thanks. Mary

Weight issues and obesity is a hormone problem, not the result of a character flaw. Insulin may be the key hormone in weight issues, but not the only one. That dietitian is simply ignorant, though likely repeating what she was taught, Yet nearly all dieticians promote the very foods that trigger high levels of insulin: carbohydrates - which makes the body store fat, and block fat burning. In addition to sugar and starches (which are just sugar), lectins (found in many commonly eaten plants including beans and peas) can also trigger high insulin levels: Dr. Paul Mason 'How Lectins Impact Your Health...' kzread.info/dash/bejne/n56FvKV8mbmcmaQ.html Gary Taubes says, 'The world is full of greyhounds who think that if they could get basset hounds to eat and run like they do, they basset hounds would become greyhounds.' He says that because they are lean, because they have never struggled with their weight, they think that if everyone ate and lived as they do, everyone would be lean like them - forgetting that not everyone is the same. Karma may catch up to them, as many people who are lean without effort in their 20s and 30s often find their weight creeping up by their 40s, 50s, and 60s. kzread.info/dash/bejne/laFppcayZJCxpLg.html In addition to eating according to government guidelines - a high carbohydrate diet - many chemicals found in increasing levels in the environment, our food, and our bodies can also trigger obesity: articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2018/10/03/household-cleaners-may-trigger-childhood-obesity.aspx

A few years ago I would have chalked you up a shill. Now that I've gone LCHF, I know that you are telling the truth. The effect is truly amazing, life changing in fact.

I, literally, ten minutes prior to watching this video, had a phone meeting with our 'One and Only' diabetic doctor in our small city. I informed his associate that since I stopped Metformin, Basaglar and went on a very low carb/intermittent fasting (removing nearly 80-85% of carbs) regime, my eye sight has improved, my energy has started coming back, my body shape has changed drastically, my joints aren't nearly as 'achy', but my bloody glucose at fasting is still a little high, 14.9mol/L +/-. My glucose goes down to about 9mol/L later on in the day, but that's the only issue I'm having, oh and my weight hasn't change as greatly as I'd hoped. My Dr.'s associate said I need to exercise more (but did not ask me if I had a history of personal injury or health problems), said I should go back on insulin and need to increase my dose of Metformin (only restarting it yesterday because of kidney pains) from 500mg to 2000mg. Argh! Ever feel that you aren't being heard?

Outstanding. Explains the insulin concept extremely well.

Protein has the same effect on insulin production and release in the body as carbs, so I don't see the point in hating carbs.

Hands down the best presentation so far!

Amazing video! All general practitioners should be required to watch this.

From Jordan (Middle East) with love. Thank you, Dr. for this lecture.

Dr. Paul Mason, you have done an amazing job here by turning a very complex topic into a very simple topic that everyone can understand. Your style of presentation and speech is very clean and powerful. I commend your efforts and thank you for all the work you have done and continue to do. The world is a better place because of you and your continued work.

I’ve battled on SAD diet for 40 years! Keto has saved me. My story is the same as your patient along with being frowned on by people because I HAD to eat every few hours or I felt I’d faint. AND going out to dinner at night everyone would say just don’t eat that day..😳 I felt as though I would be hospitalised if i didn’t at least snack that day! Now I frequently am 16:8 and often OMAD with an occasional easy fast for 48hours 😂

Great that you are having good results and doing some longer term fasting. If you watch KZread videos from Dr Jason Wang and/or Dr Berg you willl learn that day two of fasting is the hardest, and if you've made it that far, do a few more days because they get much easier. From this you get more and greater benefits of autophagy (the body cleaning out of old mitochondria, toxins, cysts, etc.), making it easier for new healthy cells.. getting rid those that lead to disease, cancer, etc. If I'm telling you somethings you already know, not my intent. Best wishes for good health.

Elisa Agnew, this is all they do in the UK. No clue about nutrition, supplements, fasting, herbs, hormones, good sleep, nothing. Anything you say, they have tablet for & then when you have severe side effects, another tablet for that & so on. Elderly are sufferring the worst with this approach. Sigh!

Love your présentation Doctor! I am on a carnivore/ keto diet and feel as good at 58 as I felt in my early 20’s! Great energy and I only eat twice a day, not hungry for a third meal, I eat plenty of fatty fish and meat and good butter! No more IBS , bloating, and I have dropped 20 lbs so far in 3 and a half months! Went from 143 to 123 and still losing. Most physicians are against people doing low or no carbs diet and really against fat but they are killing us with the sugar in cereals, carbs etc… There is a real movement starting here in the USA, but Physicians will drop you as their patients if you eat carnivore or keto long term! Your cholesterol is higher they say and they do not even look at the triglycerides! You will have a heart event if you eat fat”the docs will tell you, but in reality what causes damage through our arteries is sugar!!!! Thank you for exposing the lies!

I send this video to everyone who puts up with me, talking about their health.

Great intro to the subject, but for people just finding this topic, know that one of the results of switching to these diets is you need to pay attention to your electrolytes, namely sodium & magnesium. It's REALLY easy to get sodium deficient because of the insulin drop so you need to be adding salt to your meals. I didn't pay attention to this for the first 2 months and then at one point my body lost the ability to balance and I just collapsed to the floor for 5 minutes. It was terrifying. I realized I hadn't really been taking in any salt -- all my foods were unsalted. I started adding salt to everything and I'm fine again. But imagine if something like this happened to me while I was driving.... Yeah, make sure you study up!

Sodium, magnesium, & potassium. Need the right balance of all three electrolytes to maintain proper hydration. Morton's lite salt is a proper balance of magnesium and potassium that you can add with regular salt. If you still get muscle cramps you can take oral potassium supplements. And topical magnesium oil which usually comes in a spray bottle to spray on your torso, arms, and legs to soothe the muscles that ache.

Yes and no. Salt is an inorganic compound, therefore the body cannot use it. And if the body cannot use it, it is poison, plain and simple. So why are your symptoms going away when you have salt? Cause every poison has different effects on the body. And a sudden stop of intaking of poison will always cause withdrawal symptoms. So frequent cramps, passing out and constipation are the major witrhdrawal symptoms of cutting salt. Does that mean you should have more salt? No, of course not. Just realize what you're doing, and go through the withdrawal period very carefully. It can take 5-7 days from my own experience. Drink LOTS and LOTS of water. That will (just like salt) elevate your blood pressure a little, just enough so all three symptoms will be diminished. Whenever you get a cramp, get up and walk. Whenever you feel you're passing out, lie down. And go on drinking water, at least a GALLON / day! You could even adress the salt addiction by going raw vegan for a few days, drinking lots of fresh juices, and then go right back to being low carb / keto or even carnivore. I did that, and it worked fine for me.

Traditionally we would preserved fruits to last the winter.. but he has a great point about honey.

Perfect explanations! Thank you

Thank you so much Dr.Mason.

Brilliant explanation! Thanks!

Prevention is better than cure, you're one of those best doctors who are not brain washed ! Good presentation. Thanks a lot for your video.

What a great and to the point presentation, dr Mason! Thank you!

Fantastic Presentation. Cheers doc. Thank you

Incredibly valuable info. Thanks for sharing this content!

Very well explained. Thanks Dr Mason.

Excellent presentation on the topic. Best I’ve seen and I’ve watched a lot of them.

Oh it absolutely works! I gave up all kinds of sugar and only have the occasional pizza or slice of cake once a month or even twice ( but it makes me feel awful 😣) which serves me as a good reminder of why I stoped eating such things a long time ago. The other thing is too much fructose rich fruits and vegetables… Yes I stoped that as well. I only eat a handful of berries in the morning and the occasional banana, pineapple or papaya. I only drink water with a little Himalayan salt ( two glasses in the morning and a glass at lunch time. No breakfast and only late lunch and early dinner, that leaves 16 hours gap between, dinner and lunch. I don’t drink alcohol or smoke, I sleep 8 hours most days abs exercise 15 minutes every other day. what do I eat, you may ask. My diet consists mostly of animal protein, some vegetables protein and low fructose vegetables, lots of olive oil. avocado oil and green tea. I am now 55 years old but only yesterday I was told I look in my early 30s (my profile photo was taken five months ago) I am size 8, 1,75 tall and 75 kilos. I decided to drastically change my diet as soon as I started seeing sings of ageing and weight gain. I studied intensively anything related to nutrition and listened to my mother, she passed away due to Covid two years ago at the age of 89. Although she wasn’t formally educated in nutrition or medicine… she was definitely spot on, when she used to tell us to not eat any carbs, sugars or starches. She had six children, but kept an immaculate figure and weight until her death. I wish governments would invest much more in educating the average person in the evils of carbs and heavily tax and discourage carb and sugar producing businesses, which poisons people and puts a massive burden on the health care system.

Good presentation, well done

Congratulations! Not only did we get the most up-to-date scientific evidence in this presentation but it was beautifully illustrated with slides. I can now understand why Dr Peter Bruckner has asked Paul Mason to write the nutrition chapter in the upcoming fifth edition of the textbook on sports medicine which Peter Bruckner originally produced some 20 years ago. Paul ( and Dr Rod Tayler) keep these high quality presentations coming . Thanks

Brilliant video

So easy to understand. Thanks for this!

What an excellent lecture, so clear and concise. Thank you so much for sharing.

Look up Dr Jason Fung. He has done a lot of work in this area and like Dr Mason is also a great speaker. Dr Fung's first book is the Obesity Code. He has a series of videos based on that book, you can find the first one by entering "Dr Jason Fung, The Obesity Code, Why we gain weight, part 1" there are six videos in the series and each will take you to the next. It is surprising how compelling they are. He has another video that is about 45 minutes long and like this one it is a summary of a lot of information. I might start with this video first because it is a summary, it depends whether you want an overview first or if you like to go straight into it. Here's a link to it:. kzread.info/dash/bejne/aaJ-yap7kqjNo6g.html If you're not comfortable clicking on a link, the keywords to find the video are "Dr Jason Fung, fasting as a therapeutic option for weight loss" I have one more that I'll share, in this one he goes into depth about the conflicts of interest between pharmaceutical companies and nutrition information and how that affects the information we're given, how what we think we know is often not correct and the reasons why. kzread.info/dash/bejne/rGp9sZR9is21m7w.html Again, if you're uncomfortable clicking on a link the keywords for this one are "Dr Jason Fung, CrossFit pharmaceutical conflict of interest" I hope this is useful, Dr Paul Mason, Dr Jason Fung and Dr Robert Lustig are all excellent speakers and they've all sacrificed in their careers in the name of science and getting information out to the public.
