Good episode. I enjoy every one. I usually watch 2-3 times (sometimes more) to understand because there is SO much information in each episode. I do have more questions now: Triglycerides weren’t mentioned and were higher in the low fat group. Why? What about more insulin? In your Diabetes episode, it was the two together that showed true glucose intolerance? Can you expound that context of this study? Also, risk, you say double of risk, but how much of a RISK is that? For those of us who haven’t had a course in statistics, double of an an unknown risk is still unknown. Is the original risk 1 in 100? 1 in 2000? One in a million? I unfortunately need a science-speak to English translation here. On a (somewhat) unrelated request for future videos, can you do a video on the green Mediterranean diet? I’d love to see your thoughts on this. Kevin Hall really needs to write a book. How can your fans get on the bandwagon to get him to write it? Can you be a co-author??

@@GargiSingh3 although there are good and bad fats, a surplus of calories from fat will result in the deposition of adipose tissue, as you know. I aim for approximately 15-20% of my calories to come from fat “or” 50-70 grams per day, based on 3,000 calories (plant-based). 1 gram of fat is 9 calories. As for saturated fats, not all are of equal consequence. Coconut’s saturated fat is distributed among serval types with Lauric Acid being the prominent (47%). This is important because lauric acid’s carbon chain length is 12. Comparing that to the saturated fat found in a steak (stearic acid) being 18 carbon chain lengths. Basically, the longer carbon chain lengths are suggested to have greater deleterious effects, such as increasing LDL.

I didn't know this either: "Satiety and satiation are related terms that are often used interchangeably, but they actually refer to different aspects of the feeling of fullness and satisfaction after eating. Satiety refers to the feeling of fullness and satisfaction that persists after a meal and suppresses hunger and the desire to eat again. It is a longer-term feeling that relates to the overall energy balance of the body and can last for several hours after a meal. Satiation, on the other hand, refers to the feeling of fullness and satisfaction that occurs during a meal and signals the end of eating. It is a shorter-term feeling that relates to the immediate sensory experience of eating, such as the taste and texture of food. In summary, satiation is the feeling of fullness and satisfaction *during* a meal that makes you stop eating, while satiety is the feeling of fullness and satisfaction *after* a meal that helps you maintain a healthy energy balance by reducing hunger and the desire to eat."

Oh my, I'm biased in favor of keto (perhaps not decades uninterupted), but I have two points to make, which I think are free from that bias: 1) Keto doesn't always mean low fiber. The types of vegetables prefered on keto often have plenty of fiber. And if people bake then there is also for example psyllium, oat fiber and coconut flour. I ate more vegetables after I started keto than before, even though only a certain amount was allowed (I admit my eating habits before were poor). So while vegan low-fat surely wins over keto in terms of amount and variety of fiber, keto can contain enough fiber. 2) The calorie rich foods do make it easier to have a much higher intake when a person isn't counting their calories. And you even explain why. With the calorie (and fat) intake of the LC group, it's a proof that keto works, that they lost any body fat at all, when based on calories alone, they should have been gaining it. This excess intake also explains the blood tests results of this study. And elevated uric acid - how much meat were they consuming? Keto done right improves metabolic markers in the blood. Most people on keto, if they are on it to lose weight, DO watch their calories. And on keto the calorie restriction doesn't cause hunger, even if satiation isn't effective on it's own to keep the calories low or reasonable. Even if they stop counting, they DO know to keep the portions smaller. I think I remember seeing studies where the same calorie intakes on LC and LF diets were compared and then keto WAS the more effective option for losing body fat. PS: Which group enjoyed their food more? That's also important for a sustainable nutrition style.

Ive just recently started eating 2 good meals a day within about 7 to 8 hours. Lots of fresh veggies, spuds, chicken & fish & some fruit each day. Occasionally bread & rice & pasta, but not huge amounts. kind of everything in moderation. The BEST thing I did was make 2 rules for myself. No added sugar to anything I eat and, stop eating at 7pm. Nada. Finish! No crap while I'm watching TV at night. I cook from scratch & use yummy olive & avocado oil with the odd knob of butter. It's a delicious healthy mediterranean, leaning diet with some milk & eggs some days. So far 8 kgs have just dropped off me. If I am truthful, the food that I am eating now is pretty close to what I ate before. I've always eaten good quality fruit, vegetables and nuts and high-fiber foods BUT I have decreased the amount I eat and now have a start & finish time and dont just endlessly graze and eat unnecessary calories.

Basically what I'm doing as well! I am glad and I hope I can keep working on my prediabetes this way. Just got diagnosed in October, but I'm sticking to no added sugars on anything and a nice self-cooked Mediterranean diet, with 16:8 intermittent fasting, whole ingredients mostly. In this short time being aware of added sugars on so many things has been eye-opening!! 😮

Nice! As someone who has eaten mostly plant based for five years, but who occasionally falls off the meat wagon, I can tell you that I can notice the negative affects on my body as soon as a few hours. Before I started, I had acne, inflammation in my back and joints, ED, and explosive bathroom episodes. Two weeks of nothing but plants (with homemade baked french fries no oil as my main go to for curbing cravings) literally cured all those symptoms. No more acne, no more inflammation, #2 Lincoln logs in the morning like clockwork, and improved bedroom performance. Since then, my body has become extremely sensitive to eating what would be considered a normal western diet. I think it's just because I know what healthy feels like. Many people are suffering, and they don't even know it. If they do know it, they assume it's just ageing or genetics, and they turn to doctors and pills to treat the symptoms. Yep, they treat the symptoms, but they don't treat the cause. Great video, my man - keep it up!

I tried pretty much every diet in the last 10 years and wrote a masters thesis on intermittent fasting. In the end going back to an animal based diet worked really good for me. Lot of people eat a lot of s*** when they say that they eat meat but you should really focus on minced beef e.g. as most meat dishes in studies are also a "salami pizza" where there is barely any meat on it. I do only eat higher amount of carbs when I train. Actually I just wanted to say what works for me, might not work for others.

Something to consider on caloric density and satiation is that cultures who traditionally eat very rich foods (french) do so slowly and in a social setting.

The French Paradox of the French being in good health despite High amounts of fat, turned out to be a hoax: if I remember rightly: they fiddled the heart disease data (reported to the EU or WHO). Basically they reported no increase in heart disease over a period of time after the advent of cheap animal products (I.e. increase in consumption of these) with the onset of factory farming. But that period of time was not enough for the long term cardiovascular problems to become evident. They also reduced the number of adverse events by 10%!

@HYPERWATER Actually, I can answer most of this. Lost about 10 pounds of water and more than the rest (25 pounds ... 35 total minus 10 water) was fat as I did gain some muscle. This is what my smart scale says and it jives with the pace of weightloss (rapid in first couple weeks then very controlled and steady at around 1.5 pounds to 2 pounds per week thereafter. In addition to the extra water gain (water bonds to glycogen) and elevated blood pressure (and in my case migraines) that goes with it, carbs (especially processed) impact hormones that impact satiation (the feeling of being full at end of meal) and having high ketones control satiety (feeling of remaining full between meals). I experimented with vegetarian diet and I lost muscle mass and suffered from low energy levels that made it hard to workout... so for instance... same heart rate was associated with slower speed on my bike. I also got sick repeatedly on vegetarian diet. Not so on a keto diet. In fact my wife started work as a school teacher after I became keto, and while she has brought numerous colds home, I have not become sick. So there's that. A man with receipts.

I’ve had many of the same results! Congrats on your healing!

According to Dr. Paul Saladino, glucose intolerance in ketogenic diets are due to cells that can take in ketones, preferring ketones as the energy source rather than glucose, as long as the fat fuel is available, and thereby leaving elevated glucose in the blood and give the appearance of insulin resistance. I would like to see the glucose test performed on someone who is on a keto diet where they regularly have a post-prandial insulin spike due to adequate intake of protein per meal, not the "stay in ketosis even during meals" version of keto. Or the glucose test performed on someone that has just done steady state cardio and/or HIIT to test how well glycogen stores that were depleted soak up the elevated blood sugar. As for LDL cholesterol, the study with coconut oil and pigs is suspect if the pig feed was primarily starchy grains. Chronically high insulin due to meal frequency and blood sugar spikes wear down the arterial wall, while causing the liver to not recycle small LDL particles into larger forms, allowing these small particles to stay in the blood and enter the gaps of the arterial wall created by insulin (and insulin resistance) remaining in the blood for prolonged periods of time to lower blood sugar. (Randle Cycle) These small LDL particles then get oxidized in the arterial wall, attacked by white blood cells, and plaque is then formed. The original study decades ago, for LDL cholesterol utilized a diet that consisted of 30% net carbohydrates and labeled that "Low carb" when that is approximately 150g's of carbohydrates based on a 2kcal diet. That is too high to be considered a low carbohydrate diet, and due to the Randle Cycle, too many carbohydrates and saturated fat will cause triglyceride levels to rise if exercise (both cardio and strength training) aren't used to help utilize the blood glucose and potential fat fuel. Furthermore, ketogenic omnivorous diets can make use of monounsaturated fats (from avocado, avocado oil, nuts, seeds, olives and olive oil) to supplement their fat intake. Monounsaturated fat is shown not to raise LDL cholesterol. As well as stearic acid. If you're going to have net carbohydrates in your diet, fiber becomes necessary (soluble) to blunt the blood glucose spike. Insoluble fiber can also help with blunting fat absorption(good for cholesterol control) and protein absorption(not good). Without many carbs in the diet, fiber isn't necessary at all.

I did keto and 20 hour fasts everyday for 4 months. Lost 3 stone. I had no energy. Stopped keto because I had no energy to do anything but kept the fasting lifestyle and now I have energy I can workout which means I can get back the muscle I lost whilst on keto. It's processed foods we should avoid. Not any macronutrient. Lesson learnt.

Probably the best KZread video that i have watched. You have finally proved to me what diet i should be eating and the world is being conned by highly paid spin-doctors. Confusion keeps the peasants in their place. Thank you, Thank you. Keep up your great work and I appreciate all your hard work reading all those technical reports. Victor

Thank you for the good work you do. Great video !

I do not beleive anyone I see online is thriving on animal based diets. I literally felt like I might die on the keto diet and suffered ketoacidosis and low blood sugar so bad I couldn’t get up. Eating a banana gave me life. There’s no way people live like that .

(I don't promote ketogenic diets or very low carb diets. Hypocaloric diets with low inflammatory agents tend to reduce insulin exposure and A1C fastest regardless of the macro breakdown). Glucose tolerance tests are contraindicated as diagnostic for people who have been on a low carb diet because glycolytic enzyme synthesis is suppressed when insulin levels are chronically low. In addition, the muscles load with free fatty acids in lieu of some glycogen, so the muscle cells remain "loaded" and there is less room to take on glucose, in addition to the pancreatic response to glucose being blunted (as the doctor indicated). We KNOW however that low insulin exposure reduces the disposal of glucose at the cellular level because emerging type 1 diabetics often have a reduction in insulin needs after a few weeks of insulin therapy. I mean we absolutely know that newly diagnosed type 1 diabetics HAVE glucose in their muscle cells, but aren't burning them. In a hypocaloric situation, ketogenic diets don't produce as profound a spike with a glucose tolerance test. It has been shown to reverse within 2-3 days of eating over 25% carbs. Insulin actually increases insulin sensitivity in the short term by stimulating synthesis of glycolytic enzymes. Keep in mind that while high glucose levels (140+) can destroy beta cells, insulin exposure is regarded by researchers as the primary mechanism of the development of insulin resistance at the cellular level. The pancreas' ability to produce and release insulin is not equivalent to insulin resistance but is often misinterpreted as being so. Here's the problem. Work with type 1 diabetics have shown that on a per carb gram basis, starches that have low GI, like al dente pasta and legumes actually require 150-200% as much insulin to manage over an extended period of time of 8-12 hours. The rise in glucose is very slow, but much of the glucose from those carbs is released and absorbed in a very delayed fashion as the fiber and intrinsic proteins are broken down, and it appears that there may even be sensors in the large intestine that sense the presence of "bulk" or stretch, and trigger the pancreas to release glucagon which raises blood sugar, and requires extra insulin to counteract. There is no doubt that high gluten pasta requires more insulin on a carb gram basis than carbs with less fiber and associated proteins. The gluten forms a gelatinous covering around starch granules that causes the delay and also the glucagon release signal. Harvard has confirmed this with high gluten wheat products. (I wanted to add that excessive fructose gets turned into liver fats which can make the liver insulin resistant, and fructose (and alcohol) also yields uric acid that also causes insulin resistance so basically you have three options for carbs: 1) Fructose yielding sugars-see Uric acid and fatty liver. 2) Slow digesting glucose polymers like beans and some grains which provoke glucagon release, demanding more insulin to manage and 3) Easily digested glucose polymers like rice, potato and yams and a few other sources like plantain and tapioca that don't provoke gut irritation leading to glucagon release or possibly other mechanisms of spiking blood sugar in a delayed fashion, however, these starches provoke a fast increase in blood sugar that may be above the euglycemic range. This can be blunted by combining with cellulose and resistant starch, protein and fat, or by consuming around activity. I've seen people drink 75 grams of glucose polymers during a 1 hour workout and not had their blood sugar go much over 100.

conclusion = triglycerides were trending upwards.. and just in 14 days.. no telling how high theyd be in 3 months.

There is a difference between keto and carnivore and low carb. Carnivore and Vegan diets aren’t great for long term health; humans are omnivores no matter how many blood tests you do to confirm biases in a short term study. People have individual needs that might skew them more plant or animal based., but the Blue Zones studies seem to push towards more plant-based, but not solely plant-based diets. I tried a Vegan diet and in week 4 I had to add in some eggs daily because I was craving protein. I felt much better with this moderate, simple protein addition and did lose weight, however my goal was to find a healthy, anti-inflammatory diet (no gluten or dairy or nightshades). There are so many variations of anti-inflammatory diets (including carnivore). Losing fat isn’t the only health marker, we are preoccupied with it because obesity is such a problem. You also need to consider how much weight a person has to lose: less than 30 lbs and greater than 30 lbs - especially as it gets towards 75, 100+. I mostly follow Mark Hyman’s Pegan diet - a combo of Paleo and Vegan: plant forward, but including moderate protein. Also similar to The Wild Diet by Abel James with intermittent and some extended fasting. I still avoid gluten due to inflammatory issues. I was able to use calorie restriction when I only had 10-15 lbs to lose - quite easy; this was essentially closest to the current low fat diets. Unfortunately I didn’t know what normal diet to use afterwards or that gluten was an issue for me back then. Kevin Hall’s paper that you cited at 7:30 seems to point this out since he calls out that this is for obese individuals. The data at 9:40 on fat versus muscle loss on LC versus LF diets is interesting, but this study was in the absence of exercise modifications. Insulin resistance is an issue for many and exercise with the exclusion of refined carbohydrates (not necessarily LC) would both work to reduce insulin’s negative effects. Dr. Mark Huberman is a neuroscientist to check out for brain effects from diet and exercise; he uses exogenous ketones to enhance cognitive function, but eats like an omnivore with some intermittent fasting. The studies looked at in your overview didn’t seem to include any time-restricted eating. This has been a key marker of health for me.

Well and also were the women in the study cycling or were they on hormonal birth control? Because for a healthy woman, 14 days is nothing and she's only halfway through the cycle. They would have needed to wait 28 days to see the true impact as fat burning and metabolism naturally speed up in the last phase (luteal) of the female cycle, so this would have skewed results. Women almost need their own separate studies done.

14:40 maybe you have time to make a video about the difference between blood sugar and insulin output. Generally, I think this is where the key differences are. From my perspective the goal should be to have use the least amount of insulin to prevent insulin resistance. Interestingly enough, there isnt a one to one correlation between insulin production and blood sugar levels. I dug down that hole when I tried to figure out why some people think potatoes are bad ("waaay to high" GI), but ended up finding a study that showed that even though your blood sugar might be higher, the insulin response in comparison to pasta ("good" GI food) is a lot lower, especially over time.

My grandparents were lifelong diabetics. I remember as a kid going to visit and the house always smelled like grease. This was in rural Indiana. Meat was a mainstay. I honestly didn't even know what lentils or quinoa was until my mid 20s. I remember even at a young age being struck by the cognitive dissonance, because they had lists of "Good", "Bad", and "Sometimes" food planted on the fridge that my dad had written up for them with one of their kidney doctors. But all the "Bad" foods like rice, potatoes, grains, and fruit were things I almost never saw them eat, and certainly weren't staples except maybe as an occasional side dish usually loaded with butter. All the "Good" stuff like meat, cheese, and eggs you couldn't get away from if you tried, nevertheless they never got better. My dad used to accuse them of sneaking in oats and stuff. It was hilarious because you couldn't have paid my grandfather to eat a bowl of steel-cut oats with some berries, that wasn't drowning in added fat or served alongside some bacon and eggs. I think you can do low carb in a healthy way, really emphasizing unsaturated fats and low GI veggies, but that certainly wasn't the message they were getting.

My blood tests are also always fine, except for vitamin D deficiency, which almost everyone seems to have.

Check out the video on this channel called “Can water-only fasting heal most diseases”. Fasting can reset your body & clear the buildup of all kinds of crap. Imagine you have a high performance car and you gave it the higher quality oil and gas, inevitably you’d eventually have to change the oil and the gas filter. No matter how good was or is your diet, there are other toxins, plastics, stress, bad sleep and everything else that weighs us down, then we get weird allergies and reactions to foods. A long fast is like taking the car apart and cleaning the insides of the engine and all other parts. Then you put it together and it runs like new.

Ooooo you and Dr. B chatting it out! Go for it!

Keto is not supposed to be too high in fat. It is said to get off of keto during the month and get back on again so that your body can get shocked.

28 days isnt a study...its a social media challenge....wasnt until.my 5th month of carnivore I saw results....and a full year to come.off my 2 medications

I’m not sure using a cgm if you’re not diabetic is pointless. Lower blood sugar correlates with less heart attacks in the normal range. I’m not diabetic but a few foods raise my blood sugar 60 points, and I’m glad to know which ones.

Fully agree 😊

Keto vegan here, for years. The literature shows that this might be one of the healthiest possible diets.

Excellent as always, thank you!

I`m 72 and there is way more to it than this. On keto all my aches and pains go away, my large prostate problems disappear, and I have more energy. I do eat a nice salad every day but meat is big in my diet. I tend to eat a lot less and do not have cravings on Keto. You can`t believe a lot of studies he refers to as they are done by Vegans or the food industry. It is a fact that most vegans are protein deficient. It is also a fact that many veggies cause digestive problems and lots of allergic reactions. It is not necessary to eat high fat on Keto.

@@francescalevine8735 I dare say 90% of knee, hip and shoulder replacement/surgeries would not be needed if the patient went Keto. About 5 years ago I went to the doc with a sore knee and after xrays he told me I have 'old man's knee', the cartilege was just worn out. Well after taking it easy on it for awhile and going Keto it started getting better and better. Now 5 years later on Keto I walk 2 hours a day on it and can even do some running, with no pain. Again, I am 72 so anyone can do this.

@@francescalevine8735 way back when I was entering my 50s I started getting all kinds of aches and pains and I really started dreading getting old, no one had told me about this! I went to the doc for shoulder, knee, wrist and more pains with no relief. It was not until I was around 69 and went Keto that I turned it all around.
