Thank you so much! I will definitely look at it.đđŒđđŒ
I donât think heâs saying that decreasing calories wonât help you lose weight. I think heâs saying counting calories is a bandaid, for a problem that could be solved a better way. 100 calories of refined sugar is way worse than 100 calories of protein.
This!
Thats technically what he is saying but he is expressing a huge dissapointment in calorie-counting and says to fire anyone using the term lol. So yea he couldve stated it better instead of chasing clicks or forcing his worldview.
@@xd-bt3xs well itâs kind of like using grams as a metric to diet, decreasing the weight would probably decrease body weight. Now if you go from only eating 2-3 pounds of meat to eating 1 pound of sugar then youâre probably not gonna lose weight.
Even though it could be a useful metric it still isnât a comprehensive metric that truly aids in getting fit/losing weight
@@thisguy6817 No its not because a 100 grams of peanutbutter vs 100 grams of beef will not have the same amount of caloriesâŠ
@@thisguy6817 If you start eating better and train, these two things alone can have a massive impact on insulin. So is it really the insulin that should be the main focus or isnt it just all connected? People whos serious about losing weight should consider changing their lifestyle all along, not just simply go on a diet for 3 months and then go back to old habits thats when you jojo-diet.
I am an insuline resistance patient, lost 18kgs, agree that blood glucose management is the key, but I still need to be more or less aware of the calorie intake.
My Dr and I had this very conversation and he also agreed with me that they put more sugar or sugar based ingredients in 98% of what we consume and sugar drives hunger pangs. Check Europe's ban on American food it will shock you!
I can confirm this 100%. The only way that Iâve ever lost and maintained my weight loss while doing jack shit has been keeping insulin down. I eat a ton of fats and protein and can now go long hours and days with no food. Mind you Iâve counted calories! Done it all! Gained all and more! Not this time!
How do you keep insulin down?
Insulin doesn't play that big of a role. I wouldn't go days w/o eating too often. That sounds like a really bad idea. Whether you're counting calories now or not you're still eating at maintenance. It wouldn't hurt you to cut that steak in half and have those calories in carbs instead. Nutrition is flexible like that.
@@Erick726 Iâve heard both sides. Iâm putting things into practice and this is what works for me. 100% đ€·đœââïž and I donât feel restricted at all. I feel insanely good.
I agree, balanced diet is the best for long run.â@@Erick726
May I ask what u eat for protein n fat intake?
So many folks got him confused but his message is loud and clear
Fantastic video. Thanks!!
Just about finished with his book METABOLICAL. Excellent info and a life saver.
5:37 "Get the insulin down". People (even in these comments) still push "Calories in, Calories out" or say 600 calories of pizza is equal to 600 calories of raw food - which never made sense to me. But this recommendation to reduce insulin makes perfect sense. It's not that reducing calories won't make you lose weight, the point is that calorie focus is too flawed. Instead, a focus on insulin is the correct and more effective approach to lose weight, or avoid weight gain.
I would say that focusing on insulin could heal most of the civilization diseases. (hearth issues, brain dementias, cancer, blood pressure, ibs a so on)
Great channel. I listen to most interviews, no matter what topic. Thank you.
I am spending the next year learning those words so I can just say them at a partyđđ
Iâm convinced half the commenters here have just gave their opinion without listening to the video đ€«
This is not his first time being here. So i guess people watched him before
There are some doctors that advocate for that idea. I mean I'm not saying they are completely wrong, but what he has described is only one parte of the equation. There are other variables that we might be looking at, for instance, calories, sleep, stress, and exercise just to name a few. His approach is too radical
@@caiopenhalver4900 good point, mate! I could see why people would be turned off by that!
I mean I watched it and what he says isnt wrong just that he couldve expressed himself better instead of having a huge dissapointment in calorie-counting. Its definitely a tool and the problem with dieting is that people start to eat better and track calories and when theyve lost the weight they go back to their old lifestyle and habits, THATS the reason behind jojo-dieting. Everyone whos serious about losing weight should consider changing their lifestyle all around and not having a temporarily diet but something you actually enjoy and withstand, thats the hardest part about it. Tracking calories will definitely help along the way so telling everyone to fire the person using the term is ridiculous.
@@xd-bt3xs You're absolutely hilarious for assuming that you can begin to judge his statements. Humour me: outline your expertise and experience.
This! Is so true! My wife and I as normal people who exercise and eat correctly came to this theory recently. Eat meat and veg and use sugars before long bouts of exercising to fuel the workout. Afterwards back to foods that donât spike your insulin.
This is a real scoop, getting Dr Lustig on. His work has been such a positive influence on me. Recommend checking out his conversations with Dr Mark Hyman.
5:55 *Insulin is the bad guy*
I absolutely LOVE this physician!
Except for the fact he's misleading everyone with false information. Everyone loves a con man. Whether it's Kenneth Copeland or Donald Trump. You want to know how you lose weight? Count your calories and be in a caloric deficit. Genetics, insulin resistance, and hormones play such a small role it's not worth talking about. Calories in/calories out. Eat less and move more. Period.
@@Erick726 what a nob. I bet you cant actually disprove a single thing that he said.
The fact 33% can't cook or probably don't know what they are eating is Astounding. 53 and 12 to 15 hr fast daily took me 18 months not to feel like my stomach was eating itself.
Now 12 + hrs a 12 km hike and not even hungry .
5 day fast soon .. 20 hrs was my Max but again.. The benefits are Amazing .
God Bless â€
Yer I feel that while dieting. I think. Most Iâve done is 16 hours. Going to increase soon.
@ODDJOB1234 Bravo.. I found that the more protein and less carbs make you way less hungry . I eat pasta, for instance, and can fill myself to the ears ... then I wake up Starving !!!....
God Bless u got this !
He is so so right and I couldnât agree more.
Thank you!!!!! đđŒ

Prof, R lustig, is always nailing it..
The fructose story I had heard before was that it is converted directly into fat and so is only indirectly available as energy. This is the first I have heard about it blocking mitochondrial function. Robert Lustig is passionate about these concerns and very convincing, thanks for the helpful excerpt!đ
When eaten in moderation the fructose we eat is mostly converted to glucose in the small intestine and enters the blood stream as such. When we overwhelm our intestines ability to convert the fructose to glucose then fructose will be processed in the liver to either glucose or fat depending on what energy needs the body is currently facing. Fructose in excess is a problem but that is true for glucose, fat, salt and even water so sensible discussion are better than Lustigs attention grabbing fear mongering statement to draw attention to himself
@@888jucu The source of my fructose factoid was Gary Taubes. I imagine you don't like him either. Benjamin Bikman has also talked about fructose as harmful.
Glucose is food. Fructose is ... complicated.
@@tadmarshall2739 Taubes I dont know but Bikman is more of an alarmist story teller much like Lustig. I got my fructose ideas from Research scientist Dr. Richard Johnson amongst other independent reading sources đ
@@tadmarshall2739Never heard of Taubes but Bikman yes and unfortunately I view much of what Bikman states to be alarmist for the sake of peddling books pretty much the same way Lustig operates. I got much of my fructose ideas from research scientist Dr. Richard Johnson who has done much real research on the topic and is not just an internet commentator. I have also independently read much about fructose. That said Im always happy to learn more but when Lustig and likes state something like fructose goes straight to the liver as fructose with nothing else going on then they are wrong or at the very least being very misleading from the get go and therefore I can dismiss pretty much all else after that.

đđđđexcellent !!!! đ
Iâve lost 83 pounds since March 2023. Weight lifting, walking, ample water (3-4 quarts/day) and 6-8 hours of good sleep. However, I have plateaued. I need to lose 30-40 more depending on BF%. I look great, and am happy, but Iâm still aiming higher. My severe calorie restrictions arenât working anymore, hurting my gym time, and messing with my overall well being. Help needed.
Your body has got used to the severe calorie restrictions placed upon it, your metabolism is going into starvation mode and is holding on to whatever calories is stored with in your body and not burning them,you need to shock your metabolism again by upping your calories,severe restrictions will just cause you to gain more weight in the future,I urge you to make the bulk of your diet protein and fats,donât be discouraged by the big amount of calories in these foods and meals your body uses these calories the way nature intended and these meals will keep you satiated and you wonât have hunger pangs,I still believe carbs have a place in a healthy diet so only eat carbs on your training days and even then only carbs that come from the ground such as sweet potato wild rice fruits from the berries family,leafy greens and you will find you feel full everyday and fat will start to come away but I urge you to lift weights aswell healthy eating and weights go hand in hand your body will transform if you put the work in
@@Lemon-squeezer Thank YOU!!! Before I read this, I did exactly what you recommended shortly after my initial comment. Sort of instinctively. I feel WAY better, workouts are more effective, and hereâs the best part, Iâve lost nearly a pound! Go figure. I appreciate it!!!
Organelle! I haven't heard that word since 9th grade biology. With that said, I guess it wasn't a very practical thing to be learning about. I wish they had showed me how to fix a dishwasher or tile a bathroom instead.

"Fed Up" is a documentary to watch.
What's the correct way to eat if I'm in poverty, and I have roughly 5$ a day to eat, if that? What should I eat on that budget, when refined carbohydrates are the least expensive thing, and vegetables and meat are the most expensive thing? What do I do?
ground beef
Fructose may be an issue, but calories are still important. Both ideas can be true.
Bariatric surgery causes weight loss. Anorexia causes weight loss. Ozempic causes a loss of appetite, causing weight loss. Cutting calories causes weight loss. Avoiding carbs, while cutting calories, causes weight loss. There are no shortcuts around calories.
Weight loss =\= fat loss.
I agree
Well here is another but opposite extreme example: "vitamin D overdose" causes rapid weight loss despite of calories.
According to my research we have two metabolic states I call them winter and summer mode. Unfortunatelly our average diet (including too much fructose) keep us in winter mode.
If we followed how we ate during winter we would be more healtier and only gain fat under skin againts winter. Like Inuit do.
But switching to summer mode is not an easy issue... It seems we have to manage copper status in fact.
And it could explain why we lost ability to produce vitamin C...
I went on a glucose diet when I was a kid. I got a belly ache from eating too much glue.
I believe Marketing, is the biggest leader in mis\disinformation, with little to no recourse or penalties...now i think i will look into marketing "regulations"...im guessing it is OK to presuade people, which makes lieing "good for business"
You have described Lustig perfectly đ
Yeah horrible horrible guest
Fundamentally, if you consume less calories than your maintenance, you will lose weight. This of course goes in conjunction with eating healthier and more nutritious foods that are high volume, low calories and keep you satiated. Avoid calorie dense low volume foods that do not fill you up but significantly add to your caloric intake without realising. Track your food and macros, choose the healthier options and ease into a sustainable caloric defecit and you will lose weight. I started doing this in July weighing 104kg. Im now 76kg by doing all of the above. If you're consuming healthy but calorie dense foods i.e. potatos, rice, fruites and nuts and are going over your maintenance you will not lose weight... simple.
Might work on most people...but some of us have a problem.
Facts! Great comment
@@pass179 your problem might be that you are lazy and donât want to take the time to change. People donât like to be uncomfortable. Change is uncomfortable. Change is necessary to get results.
@@veganrock1111 1st of all kiss my ass. 2nd of all if you are such an advice giving "Expert" go get tour own channel instead of trying to be an expert on someone elses. You dont know me or anyone else arrogant know it all little shit.
What do your daily meals look like @TMAnimate1 ?
Counting calories+ low sugar or zero sugar diet is key. You will still get fat if you eat 3500 calories a day of steak
No u wont...its nt calories
@@misterben88itâs a hormonal and fat adapted thing. Not an energy thing. Do more damage trying to control your calories than by making sure your fats and protein are sufficient.
â ââ ââ @@misterben88Not sure what youâre talking about. Meat contains calories. When you consume meat, you take in protein, but your body can use only so much protein at a time. And since your body canât store protein, it converts protein you canât use into fat. So, yes, if you eat 3,500 kilo calories of meat, youâll gain weight, unless you are getting enough exercise.
This is not correct. A caloric deficit, regardless of the type of calorie, will work to reduce weight. This has been proven. However a caloric surplus from protein, will not result in weight gain. This has not been shown to be true.
Not true I'm proof to this.I went to get blood work done to see where everything was told in order to maintain weight I need to eat 1650cal a day...plus whatever 400-500 calories based off life style...i eat well over this,150g protein 180g fat 30g carbs a day,my blood work and hormone levels are perfect and i dont gain weight...if i go through a phase were i get lazy with cooking and i eat refined carbs even alittle over my BMR calories for the day I will swell up like a ballon and start gaining weight to match that of the calories surplus.
But is also said that it doesn't matter if you eat refined carbs or table sugar as carb source to get energy.
I eat low pasta, rice, potato but i eat more table sugar products. I think i feel happier and in the end healthier this way.
But you probably look obese so ...
A great thing my lecturer told usâŠ. âA calorie doesnât know what time it isâ always makes me laugh.
I don't know. I use calorie restriction on my dogs, myself, and my horses when we need to lose weight. I will cut maybe 1/8th of a cup/scoop (which isn't much at all) of food out of their diet consistently each day, they lose weight. I will cut my food intake back each day, and I lose weight. It works every time regardless of what I eat. So I wouldn't demonize calorie restriction as a tool for weight loss. I do agree that sugar should be avoided as much as possible. Obviously, if you choose whole foods over sugary processed junk, you can eat more volume. Also, it is more satiating than garbage food.
Calories restriction can work only if you are healthy and eating healthy food. Problem is that processed food is developed to make you choose wrong. To disable your free will.
I ate Raisin Bran last night foo aint no white raisins đ
Never believed the calorie nonsense. Energy expressed. Fat & protein and no carb or sugar. Healthiest I've ever been. đ
@@veganrock1111wow!
Do you track your calories? Just curious
@@Eddie-Spaghettiyes, although true it was mean and I retracted the statement. Eating meat causes inflammation in the body. Look up acidic foods vs alkaline foods and how they affect the body.
@@veganrock1111 it was mean
â@@veganrock1111i have found for myself that carb and sugar of all types makes me look swollen and inflamed. I do best with meat, eggs, cheese and I thought I was ok with peanuts but I think peanuts are causing something lately. Sorry but I think that a person can do an easy elimination diet and figure out what is causing issue.
What about sugar alcohols? They claim we don't metabolize and absorb it but I feel like that's bs
We must hold the process food industry accountable and find more affordable ways to eat fresh protein and produce for all Americans
Yeah. People gain the weight back because they crash diet or get tok restrictive and it isnât sustainable. Moderate calorie deficits, high protein, hit the gym. Do that consistently for like A YEAR and you will be shredded. Period.
This goes wayyy back to Atkins. This guy acts like a pioneer.
Clown is a better description, he's pure and simple a showman peddling book sales to the ignorant
Your diet should be good. I used counting calories to keep losing weight. But the most important thing is that i kept my diet the same. Just keep eating healthy and the weight stays off.
I just did my groceries yesterday and I took a great deal of pleasure out of seeing the looks on peoples faces when they saw what I had in my cart. Everything I bought was on special or on sale. I spent $206 and walked out with 4L 10% cream, 4L 35% cream, 5 dozen eggs, 6 large blocks of cheese, 5kg of bacon, 12 pork tenderloins and 3 beef blade roasts. This will last me 2 weeks. Other than my coffee (which I outright refuse to give up btw) I don't have a simple scrap of plant matter in my pantry or fridge. It's all animal based. It took some doing but I got all that sugar and carbohydrate out of my life.
I hope you are joking.

Yo yo diets every year. Lost weight and gained more each year. 18 months ago, went cold turkey and stopped sugar, refined cards and starches. Eat vegetables, huge amounts of eggs, meat, fish food, nuts, a bit dairy, cheese etc...and not much fruit. Lost over 3 stone. Im at my weight as a 18 yr old. I do restricted eating in a 4-6 hour window. Im never hungry and still consume around 1800 to 2000 kcals a day. I drink wine 2/3 times a week. I go for a meal if i want. I have a few treats at the weekend. Ive upped my exercise and lowered my Bp, trigs and ldl. It works for me. Find a diet for you.
Shame about the fruit. So many vitamins and vital nutrients you're missing out on!
**won't eat much fruit but will drink plenty of wine**
Amazing.
@@TheSmark666fruit in a sense depends on how metabolically healthy you are. We know itâs metabolized but the liver like alcohol and too much causes NAFLD. While the gut shields the liver from fructose, it depends heavily on the micro biome. Our ancestors didnât have the sugar bombs of fruit like oranges today, they have gotten much sweeter due to genetic engineering.
If by cutting dietary refined carbohydrates and sugar, are you cutting calories? This argument seems a little like splitting hairs.
the amount of total cals not removing them completely via eating more protein or fats instead
Basically calorie dense foods such as processed foods are way way easier to over consume. If you are eating mostly unprocessed foods you will usually reach satiation much sooner and your net calorie intake would be shown to be less
I lost 9 stone from what started as calorie counting. Essentially I learnt that, calories are important, and counting these serve as a purpose, but ensuring you eat a healthy balanced diet is what is important.
If people prefer calorie counting, let them crack on. Just remember that you are what you eat, so ensuring you eat healthy, nutritious foods is always going to help more.
And who is telling you whatâs healthy? đ€
Where is fructose found, fruits and where else?
Table sugar. 1 part sucrose 1 part fructose.
Thank you Dr
Lustig!!!đ You should be considered for a Nobel Peace Award for your meaningful & advocary about sugar and insulin! This is such critical information that needs to be shared with our decision makers on all levels!!! I am doing my best to do that. And why aren't medical schools & institutions making this problem a key element in their curriculum!
âŠbecause itâs not backed by science
Unfortunately he is a charlatan. Not respected in communities of actual scientists
No chance since Lustig is wrong on many fronts and people who understand and write the science would understand this guy as a fool
Im sorry..I am subscribed but do not know your name. You are an EXCELLENT Interviewer.

When I was a child the raisins were dark.
As someone who's been keto for years but still has insulin resistance, what do I do? I can only seem to lose weight by fasting.
So you only seem to lose weight by not ingesting caloriesâŠ
Stop eating tons of fat
I dont know what sort of Keto diet you are on but if it has a high fat content then there is plenty of literature out there pointing to high fat being the cause of insulin resistance
Building muscle is one of the most effective things people can do to improve insulin resistance and just overall health and longevity.
WOW!!!!
Next week, an expert on here saying the complete opposite.....no wonder people are confused.
Thatâs not true at all. The word is out.. his Health related guests are all telling us basically the same thing⊠sugar and processed foods is poison.
Layne Norton prime example
So is it still okay to eat fruit or will it inhibit my gainz
I don't think there's any research that says any amount of fruit is bad for you (provided you brush your teeth enough). Fructose naturally from fruits doesn't have the same effect as artificially added fructose
Its vvankers like Lustig who give people food phobias such as this. Fruit is fine just dont eat 10 apples in a row as that would be too much, simple
@@dangallagher6176its all about the dose over time. Its difficult to overdo fructose eating fruit but easy drinking OJ or CocaCola etc
I love when guys who arent in shape tell people how to get in shape
If the science is sound it doesn't matter what they look like, alot of personal trainers aren't in the best shape either, alot of pro bodybuilder coaches dont look like ifbb competitors either
Lol good point tbh
@@TrollollolollolBut its kinda like a practice what you preach scenario. If this dr found the best true way to be healthy, then i would expect for him to be following the best way and his health would reflect that. Its like all the health officials in governments in the world being fat and unhealthy, why would i listen to them
@@Holden-uf7 I agree it's def a better look when they clearly put it into practice
science is what it is.
Am I being too simplistic here...but isn't the logical step to lower fructose consumption (rather than glucose) and reduce calories as well....throw in good diet as well
Heâs saying that glucose is good and insuline is bad. How can that be if glucose is what raises insulin?
Insulin goes up whatever you eat....
You get insulin down by not eating a lot....
My body is very good at extracting energy out of food.... So i eat in a 4 - 6 hour window.... Then nothing....
Processed food with sugar jack up insulin more than natural food....
Insulin is what helps utilise glucose. Too much of it is the problem.
TBH Lustig looks to already suffering dementia as this is the way my step father started to prattle on before slipping over the edge
Glucose is used by every cell in the body. fructose is the bad guy. Metabolised in Liver only
@@MAGNUM2F Much of the ingested fructose we eat is metabolised to glucose in the intestine its only when we eat too much then the excess makes its way to the liver

counting calories works...every single damn time.
The video posters tells it all: getting rid of your body hair makes you healthy af.
Calorie deficit, you lose weight, eat healthy while doing it, you feel good, but a deficit is absolutely needed or you will not lose fat.
Stop over complicating it.
Bull. Shit.
If you're insulin resistant due to high visceral fat, dropping calories won't put you in a calories deficit. Your body's metabolism crashes to match your intake. The deficit will have to come from carbs. Just because you don't understand the phrase metabolic syndrome doesn't mean anyone is overcomplicating it.
â@varunkamal91 So according to your statement a person who needs to be in a deficit eating Carbs should be eating pleanty of whole foods fruits and vegetables
@@richardjohnson4065 if you're already insulin resistance and have stored a high amount of visceral fat compared to subq, then fasting about twice a week is the only way you're gonna get healthy in the long term.
This guy isn't thin. People on Ozempic are winning the diet game.
This does sound great if you have $1500 per week! And you have to keep taking it after you lose weight. Cutting down dramatically on how much sugar and what type we eat, sounds healthier! And cheaper!
What about fruit?
Avoid San Francisco
If u wanna lose weight listen to body builders, they eat a lot of low fat low cal protein, 200g protein n slight cal deficit, works everytime â€
Exactly. All body builders count and track calories. It's worked for decades. They cut calories back, adjust macros and the fat falls off and they maintain muscle. You can't guess if you want to lose fat seriously. What you think your eating, Maybe wat more energy to shift excess fat
Body builders are also drug addicts that ingest a ton of chemicals to make their bodies look the way they do. Those drugs include ones that help with the loss of body fat etc. The body builder approach is ridiculous
@@yeahbuddy4712 So please Captain genious, do like them: 3 hours a day of hard training + Injection of TESTOsterone and ...wait Captain Genious: Die of a Heart attack at 30. Please THINK first before you write something
â@@yeahbuddy4712no they do not actually, they track grams of macronutrients. The point of the video was to highlight that calories in calories out is overly simplistic and the human body is way more complex in how it utilizes energy
@Trollollolollol errr ok then, so how they calculate a calorie deficit then if they don't count calories??. Get any bodybuilders diet plan it will tell you how many calories to consume and the ratio of MACROS, not micronutrients to eat. Calories is how they calculate a cut or bulk. This guy just talking waffle n jargon like he some genius. It's simple track yohr calories and you will see results. It's hard and tedious, but works

But ppl who restrict refined carbs for long periods ALSO yo-yo back once they start eating junk againâŠand trust me for most ppl who got to the point of being severely overweight, the urge to eat junk never goes away mo matter how good eating clean might make them feel. so its just as hard for them to sustain a no refined carbs life as it is to maintain a balanced low calorie diet. If they could easily control their 7:25 urges to eat highly palatable dopaminergic foods they wouldnât be overweight to begin with!
People who allow themselves to become morbidly obese have food addiction, a completely separate issue to deal with
1 gr of carbs = 4 calories
1 gr of proteins = 4 calories
1 gr of fat = 9 calories
Simple math:
100 gr of sugar = 400 calories
100 gr of avocado = 900 calories.
The question is: how on earth is 100 gr of sugar better than 100 gr of avocado?
The answer is: calorie counting is BS!
Glucose is good đź
People who lose weight by eating less calories do so only because they are eating less carbohydrates in the process. They are fattening foods like doughnuts and non fattening foods like lettuce or beef. they all have calories but have a different effect on the body.
Honestly, if they would come up with some kind of 'dry dog food' like product that we could eat that has everything in it you need I would for sure eat it all these days that I can't make proper food. That would be excellent if it was even possible. 300 grams a day of this and you couldn't be healthier. Combine with 3 liters of water a day and your golden. Can someone please invent this?
If itâs only about losing weight, then yeah calories in calories out. If itâs about health and entire bodyâs well being, then 100 cal of protein trumps 100 cal of sugar.
No! Calories by themselves have nothing to do with losing or gaining weight. They are the same only if you are going to literally burn them. People only lose weight restricting calories because they eat less carbohydrates in the process. That means they lower their insulin spikes, like it has been explained in this video. They are fattening calories like carbohydrates and non fattening like fat, beef, lettuce. I spent decades eating way more calories than I spent and never gained weight. I also have known many people like that.
No. You need your minimum amount of protein. On top of that you still need a lot of calories for the energy. So there you ideally get carbs and fats.
@@lppbntso1 itâs purely thermodynamics.
@@Footie4ever Exactly, but thermodynamics doesnât apply to the human body because the human body is not an enclosed system. Also, there are foods that increase your metabolism and foods that decrease it. Also, it is impossible for the human body to store fat without insulin being present. Proved by science.
@@lppbntso1 completely incorrect.. google Dr Sieglarâs cookie diet. People lose weight eating cookies as long as the calorie deficit is there. Also yes the cookies contain 9grams of sugar in each one lol
This channel has me so confused. Like what exactly should i be doing and eating? If i lift run and eat leafy greens and sardines somehow I'm still fuckin up. What to do.
I've been down that rabbit hole a few years ago, it was hell. Feeling guilty and anxious no matter what I ate.
I just don't listen to any nutrition podcast now and my stress is way better and I think that's the most important thing, then I eat what feels right to me and don't overthink it, so I eat a bit of everything and just try to avoid heavily processed food, that's all
My most serious suggestion is to stop listening to utter trolls such as Lustig who even himself is fat. I would suggest sensible speakers such as Gil Carvalho atleast u wont end up with food phobias đ
The raisins in raisin bran are not white im literally looking at them now
might depend what country you're in...
Lustig is right about ultraprocessed food and some other things however he is confused about weight loss. If you overeat on low insulun food you will put on weight. If you eat more than your personal body maintenance energy needs you will put on weight regardless .... Calorie is king, composition is queen.
Thanks for being a voice of reason! The Dr. seems a bit too hasty to dismiss everything that doesnât fit his narrative.
It's hard to overeat on low insulin food because it's very filling, and even if you overeat most of them are low calorie, it's a win win situation.
Rubbish. Try overeating meat, broccoli, fish. Its self moderating.
I am watching this video after midnight eating waffles.. I wonder why I don't loose weight
Carnivore all the way baby :D time to start
If insulin control is the only way to lose weight why are there fat insulin taking diabetics?
In the presence of insulin you cannot burn fat, did you even watch the video?
Absolute bollocks you are literally talking shit
if I only eat sugar to induce insulin and eat 500 calories of it a day I will lose weight so your theory is bollocks.
If you can't convince them, confuse them. This guy's motto
wasn't the least bit confusing
Please tell me which part was confusing?
You keep saying the bigger the guests when is that going to start?
Close you're eyes when he's talking.......Jeff Daniels...
Heres my new book: Eat Less, Move More. Chapter #1: Read the title. It's a small book.
The next podcast please, call to Michael Greger.
Thanks a lot of you and your team!
Tomorrows show why insulin has nothing to do with weight loss
Dont forget the book đđ€Ł
Hydration is key
Why not use the drug to get insulin down for morbid obese? Get them losing weight faster while they change their diet
Use drugs to solve the problem equals the user does nothing to change.

Watching a biochemist destroying the concept of calorie is oddly satisfying. Similar to the way Jordan Peterson destroys toxic feminists.
The calorie is everything. You can't overcome thermodynamics. If you burn more than you eat you lose weight. Listen to bodybuilders and fighters, they understand how to lose weight.
we don't burn we metabolize.
@mabe_productions semantics aside you cannot change calories in calories out... facts in isn't debatable. Argueing with the law of thermodynamics is like argueing against the law of gravity.
âââ@@MrZola1234We don't burn proteins. We don't burn fibers. Closest to burning (mitochondria making ATP) is our body using fats and glucose. Problem with glucose is that if you oversupply your body with it, it will switch into powersaving mode(high insulin and insulin resistance) which will make affected tissues sick a deteriorating and gaining fat in others. And calories burning will be slowed down. And if for example your brain develops insuline resistance you loose control. That's the reason for overeating. Brain will be slowly dying and developing dementia. At that stage your only option is to switch to other energy source like fats and ketones to heal insuline resistance.
@zperdek if you you want to lose weight, you have to eat less calories than you burn, period. There is no way around this.
@@MrZola1234 But only fat and sugars count as calories. If you cut fat you will destroy your hormones and ability to heal cell walls + brain is more than 30% fat and that needs recovery too. If you cut carb calories your body don't have to struggle with inflammation and don't have releasing insulin which would block healing and fat burning process.
I spent 1000 of Dollars on stupid fraud treatments. Wish somebody could tell med 20 years ago to do a Keto. I got my health back and save alot of money
Here's what your fitness influencer couldn't tell you. Enzymes, transporters, mitochondrion. All he can do is swing a barbell and his world is simple: TDEE = BMR + TEF + NEAT + TEA + EPOC
Raisins can be white, from white grapes.
I don't think he means yellow-ish, I think he means that it was covered in a white powder-like thing, which is obviously sugar, you can see it on a lot of types of dried fruit.
Shit take time unless you wanna do it the cheat way
Iâve heard insulin can be reduced by a caloric restriction. Imagine that đž âïž
