Consuming high amounts of Red meat would probably have negative effects on people who also eat a highly processed and high carb diet. I'd like a study on the effects of Red meat on people who are predominantly very low carb. Then I might take notice as it's well accepted now that the vast majority of clinical studies have skewed and biased info contained due to vested interests.
Yeah, exactly. Ben bickman talks about protein on high carb diet will spike your insulin through the rough. But not all protein is the same, collagen will actually lower insulin
After I had a Autologous Stem Cell transplant to reduce my terminal bone marrow Cancer symptoms, I had an irresistible urge to eat beef, which I did. Six years and counting since my transplant.
I have gotten rid of two ailments from eating only beef for the past 6 months and have never felt better. My mood is so much better. Meat is the most healing food on the planet. I now fully believe that the campaign against meat is a campaign against humanity.
The original low fat diet was a sham study in the first place. It was pushed hard and taken up by health professionals and it still persists today. We switched a few months ago and the differences are amazing. Now governments (Canadá for certain) are pushing health guides with lots of grains, low fat, margarine, industrial oils and the food industry is stepping up with lots of processed crap to make it “convenient”. So, yes, it is a campaign and is political as health is one of the three factors that allows people to have their own independence. Poor health equal reliance on drugs and government “health care” (which is really sick management) and this puts people under government control. But that gets into another story.
@@jeffmoodie6144 exactly! It’s so sinister that Trudeau and his cabinet are all WEF cronies purposely destroying the Canadian farm industry through ‘green’ regulAtions, with their goal for us to eat the processed toxic junk that the food companies that the WEF are lobbyists for produce. We need to stand up for regenerative farming and real meat. We will have the fight of our lives on our hands with this one.
Thanks Mike, great info as usual! Flawed bias data never stopped anyone that had an agenda… I bet we won’t be seeing a study on the effects of estrogen in the impossible burgers anytime soon.
This area (soy) has already been highly studied , though no direct study on Impossible Burgers. At least 41 studies have been published on Soy's effects of testosterone and estrogen in men from 2010 -2020. The paper below, a meta analysis, did not find any negative effect on male hormones. "Concerns that the phytoestrogens (isoflavones) in soy may feminize men continue to be raised. Several studies and case-reports describing feminizing effects including lowering testosterone levels and raising estrogen levels in men have been published. For this reason, the clinical data were meta-analyzed to determine whether soy or isoflavone intake affects total testosterone (TT), free testosterone (FT), estradiol (E2), estrone (E1), and sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG). PubMed and CAB Abstracts databases were searched between 2010 and April 2020, with use of controlled vocabulary specific to the databases. Peer-reviewed studies published in English were selected if (1) adult men consumed soyfoods, soy protein, or isoflavone extracts (from soy or red clover) and [2] circulating TT, FT, SHBG, E2 or E1 was assessed. Data were extracted by two independent reviewers. With one exception, studies included in a 2010 meta-analysis were included in the current analysis. A total of 41 studies were included in the analyses. TT and FT levels were measured in 1753 and 752 men, respectively; E2 and E1 levels were measured in 1000 and 239 men, respectively and SHBG was measured in 967 men. Regardless of the statistical model, no significant effects of soy protein or isoflavone intake on any of the outcomes measured were found. Sub-analysis of the data according to isoflavone dose and study duration also showed no effect. This updated and expanded meta-analysis indicates that regardless of dose and study duration, neither soy protein nor isoflavone exposure affects TT, FT, E2 or E1 levels in men. Reed KE, Camargo J, Hamilton-Reeves J, Kurzer M, Messina M. Neither soy nor isoflavone intake affects male reproductive hormones: An expanded and updated meta-analysis of clinical studies. Reprod Toxicol. 2021 Mar. Also, note this comment: "To date, no studies have shown eating soy or isoflavones in moderation can feminize males or affect childhood development. Soy products have been a mainstay in Asian diets for centuries with no detriment to the male population, Marion Nestle, a professor of nutrition and food studies at New York University, told The Washington Post in 2019. " Given all that, I am still not eating an Impossible Burger, nor will I be eating a regular beef burger. People scared me off soy more than 20 years ago, so it's not something I have eaten. I don't plan to take it up again. I would eat it in restaurant though. I have had miso soup in the last year.
The other thing to note is that an Impossible Burger gets part of its flavor from the addition of heme iron. It is suspected that high blood levels of iron (typically from animal foods, particularly read meat) may cause one to biologically age faster. If one ate copious amounts of Impossible Burgers, perhaps one may have the same potential iron problem that one could get from red meat. On the other hand, for people low in iron, read meat and impossible burgers may have some benefit to them. One could reduce their iron levels by donating blood. Perhaps one could also do that through copious amounts of exercise? "Dr Paul Timmers from the Usher Institute at the University of Edinburgh, said: "We are very excited by these findings as they strongly suggest that high levels of iron in the blood reduces our healthy years of life, and keeping these levels in check could prevent age-related damage. We speculate that our findings on iron metabolism might also start to explain why very high levels of iron-rich red meat in the diet has been linked to age-related conditions such as heart disease." University of Edinburgh. "Blood iron levels could be key to slowing aging, gene study shows." ScienceDaily. ScienceDaily, 16 July 2020.
@@jackbuaer3828 Oh my, someone with a brain. I love you. Incredibly thorough response to a tired and stale argument against eating a plant based diet. But aside from the well documented fact that soy doesn’t feminize men (based of irrefutable empirical data), the more important point is that you can eat a healthy plant based diet completely devoid of soy and imitation meats, if you so wished. But yeah, the cool thing is to hate vegans regardless of the facts.
I'm super curious about the carnivore diet. Would you be able to break down a typical day of eating on this diet? What would you eat for breakfast, lunch, and dinner?
I do carnivore and eat 1 meal per day. Typically 2 pounds of fatty red meat, always cooked with raw butter or tallow. Never been in better shape or felt better!
Before I would ever worry about red meat and cancer, I would worry about 5G radiation, Smart meters, Artificial ingredients and additives, Fluoride and the many many other chemicals in water. Processed foods, No sun light and the list goes on and on!!!!!
@@torpedohost Exactly this. Every carnivore and vegan would be better off incorporating some form of meat and vegetables into their diets. It's the elimination aspect that does the trick.
@@BasedChadman That may or may not be true, some of it has to do with the microbiome of the gut, when you completely stop eating fiber and sugar those particular bacteria die and new bacteria that lives on the meat takes it's place. there has been studies showing some disease looks to be cause by these bacteria leaking from the gut into the rest of the body. This shit is complicated...
I raise grass finished lamb and beef. I have been trying to spread this gospel truth about eating healthy natural red meat in combination with exercising especially out doors in the sun! Yeah you sire for spreading the truth. Support your local farmers folks! They'll have your back when no one does.
“Match your protein with your activity level”: would love for you to dig into this / expand on your reasons for saying this. Have heard others say this before but they never ever offer a mechanistic explanation for why this might be the case. That overall calories, and in particular fat and carbs, should be commensurate with activity level makes sense. But I thought protein requirements / what you need to feel satiated would track more with your lean muscle mass, not your activity level per se
…and coming to a supermarket near you soon… bugs. Watch for cricket flour in baked goods. Although carnivore diet precludes this particular issue as does just not eating processed crap in the first place.
Here is the issue. IGF-1 is also stimulated by carbohydrates as well. So, while protein from red meat may elevate IGF-1, protein, unlike carbohydrates, facilitates better long term satiety. This, in turn, can make longer term fasting easier, which will mean less *CHRONIC* stimulation of IGF-1. Thus, this very satiating protein militates against the "possible" carcinogenesis of IGF-1 by reducing chronic exposure. Conversely, a low protein, and therefore higher carb diet, will make the practitioner of such a diet more ravenous and less likely to endure longer bouts of fasting, which will in turn will lead to more frequent elevations in IGF-1.
Additionally, one must consider the Warburg effect. "Nearly a century ago, Otto Warburg discovered that tumors consume tremendous amounts of glucose relative to most non-transformed tissues. A hallmark of cancer is the preference of cancer cells to metabolize glucose anaerobically rather than aerobically. "
Nope! If you eat smaller meals during the day you spike it less, smaller amounts right? Not all carb foods are high glycemic foods, then youd have to factor in whether all other potential problematic baddies in meat such as AGE's, methionine, mTOR, Nueg5, heterocyclic amines as well as Igf1 surges a better option than going lower on meat and eating more plants
Meat can’t be beat !! I hope you’re almost over the cold Mike I got one right around the same time as you and it hung around longer than I expected still a little congested lots of sunshine and fatty meat for me!!!!
Thanks Mike. First thing that pops into my mind when I hear "Insulin-like GF" is chronically elevated insulin caused from carbohydrate consumption.... so why blame red meat for an insulin-like GF when you could lower actual insulin?
Except you can have insulin like gf from eating only meat. It isn't just a carbohydrate issues. There is a carnivore (ex doctor because his license was revoked) who has a youtube channel and he became pre diabetic on the carnivore diet.
@@r_s2611 "Except you can have insulin like gf from eating only meat" Nonsense. "There is a carnivore (ex doctor because his license was revoked) who has a youtube channel and he became pre diabetic on the carnivore diet." If that's true (you are not giving any names, so it is probably a bullshit) he was very likely having other issues. Eating meat won't make you (pre) diabetic.

Thanks Mike, thanks High Intensity Health. Valter Longo looks like a concentration camp survivor. Same thing with David Sinclair, he is gray and pasty. Mark Sisson, who is older, looks young and vigorous. Yes genetics play a role, but I keep my eye out for variables that I can control.
Thank you, I'm coming here from the world food access alliance conference and viral TED talk. This is a great case AGAINST the switch to cockroach milk and insects for human consumption.
Correct me if I'm wrong tho I do know I'm right. 🙏 People 99% of the planet that have ever lived ate meat. Until about 1950 The age of processed foods & chemical flavors & sugar! Since the push for fake food (processed) fake meat (soy corn & grain) We have had the most toxic humans that have ever lived. Period. Any one who is honest & objective or that isn't making money from lying with admit the facts are in front of us. Look @ meat eating people compared vegans. There is no comparison. I'm not for or against. All are free to eat as they wish, tho if the body of humanity is like the body of cells that make up the individual, does it makes sense to teach more of humanity how to fuel their body correctly so we may be truly strong as the whole human body. More healthy beings means a more healthy Humanity as a Whole🙏🙏🙏
While I agree about the nonsense about cancer and meat, I disagree about quantities of meat ingested that can cause problems. No. And that's because in meat and animals products you get all the nutrients and it's almost impossible to over eat. Our bodies just ask for the right amount of nutrients. They'll ask food until you'll provide everything necessary for recovery, building or properly function. Nothing more. If you eat junk, then he'll ask for nutrients until he'll get everything. If the food doesn't have, you'll overeat some things and this fact will do 2 things: stress the organs (liver, pancreas, colon etc) and will store fat. Is that simple.
Honestly, as soon as I heard the term "relative risk" I already knew the verbal and statistical slight of hand trick was going on in this study. "Relative risk", unless such relative risk is as enormous as the carcinogenic risk of smoking, which is in the hundreds if not a thousand percent (I can't recall which), is mostly used in epidemiology to make something look more precarious than it really is. Frankly, it should be considered scientific misconduct to represent relative risk ratios to the public, without first explaining how insignificant that is in absolute terms.
I respectfully want to amend your conclusion. Sedentary vs active, natural appetite will regulate protein intake sufficiently. It's carbs that must be earned with muscle use.
I'm a seasonal eater. Lots of garden stuff all summer including wild edibles. I love dandelions, clover and I'm Berry crazy. Pine needle tea tastes good! I like fat when it's cold. Perhaps because I try to listen to my body it could be a placebo affect. I've seen videos on how fat travels through the blood stream. I believe the fat makes more work for the heart thus making me warmer....
What I don’t get is why when people eat red meat it’s important that the animal that they consume only eats a plant based diet.? I’m not being Sarcastic , I’m really serious .
A lot of bodybuilders would be falling from cancer. They purposely elevate igf-1 around the clock. They aren't the healthiest bunch, but it's not usually cancer that brings them down.
Very informative. Thanks. I've never worried about IGF, but I have often wondered about the amount of protein intake. I have worked on 1.5X my body weight, but I do find I feel healthier and stronger eating protein which I source from meat, chicken, fish and eggs. As much as I love meat, it's not my only source of protein. I like the insight you have on protein intake relative to level of exercise. It would also be interesting to hear if IGF is in other protein sources like chicken, fish and eggs or is it just a meat thing. Some great thoughts though. 👍
Hey John. I think people are more concerned about protein but pay no attention to Saturated fats. If I take in to much protein and not enough fats, I get sore after a workout. I believe fats are more important then trying to calculate your protein intake. I would much rather eat a chicken leg with all the skin on, then a lean chicken breast. Cheers
@@lorenbeaulieu2896 @@lorenbeaulieu2896 Yes. I still have to be convinced about saturated fats being good for you. I know the other fats may be good for you, but I'm not so sure about saturated fats. I eat saturated fats, but I keep them to a minimum. Ditto for trans fatty acids.
@@JohnSmith-zo6ir I am the opposite. Saturated fats transport nutrients throughout our body, Unsaturated fats do not. I try and get more fat than protein and stay far away from trans fat. 70% Saturated fat/30% protein. This is why I stay away from lean ground beef and pick the fattiest cuts of meat available. When cooking eggs I remove have the egg whites unless I drink them raw. I am not perfect and cheat from time to time. But when I follow this rule, I feel the best with the most energy. Don’t need coffee or stimulates when I stick by this. Never count calories, my body will let me know. Cheers
Thanks Mike! You are doing some great work with medical bias and talking about micro nutrients and hormones. I wish there were people who would pay more attention to the complexities of these things. I am always optimistic that people will realize they have been lied to for simplicity sake and of course money. There are no easy solutions and one size does not fit all. If we had doctors that would care about people instead of caring about corporate money, we would not be in the situation of perpetual disease and mutating viruses! Peace
My DH had his gallbladder removed last week. Multiple large gallstones. The nurse told us he needs to eliminate eating every kind of/all meat and fat from now on and go strictly fat-free Vegan. She specifically recommended those Impossible Burgers. Can you believe it?!?
Mike what do you think of the blue zone lifestyle? They don’t lift weights but walk in steep places and also don’t consume much red meat but lots of greens and tend to live the longest
Taurine and IGF-1 have an interesting relationship. Taurine also interferes with cancer proliferation. I believe what we see from those earlier studies are as stated, small number of people making a large difference due to small sample size used. What we do see in communities that eat fresh meat that would be high in taurine is low cancer incidence. Perhaps the issue can be as simple as low taurine in meat from the supermarket (water soluble so most of it is gone by the time you even get to cook it) not interacting with IGF-1.
Excellent video with great information. I've been in both camps, Carnivore and Vegan. I now eat Pescetarian, and I increase my protein as needed. I eat sardines and sweet potatoes, beets with vinegar and beans. Asparagus and Broccoli, all with EVOO. I think we need to get out of nutritional tribalism and do what works.
Media is promoting to take protein to keep muscle mass, especially for senior people. However, if people do not damage muscle fibers by exerting stress on them (exercising), their bodies do not use the protein consumed. Those protein would become excessive calories and are stored as fat. Then, people get further sedentary because they do not have enough muscles to move their own weights. Why don't nursing homes offer their residents strength training?
First I really enjoy your channel! I love the deep dives into all things health and fitness and have made some small changes that have resulted in wonderful improvements (especially sleep related). Not related to cancer but perhaps other conditions related to meat and dairy, Medcram has a video called “Salic acids cause inflammation and Disease” from about a year ago. I would be interested in your take on this especially as it gets fairly technical. My understanding is that these are molecules which are attached to proteins from mammals (but not poultry or fish). They get absorbed my our bodies and then our immune systems see them as foreign bodies and then the immune system attacks those cells, producing inflammation.
If your a consumer of red meat (almost daily like myself) and but also exercise, lifting weights etc and both potentially raises igf1, than I'm going to die of cancer? Or at least get it. I'm 43 fairly healthy. 5'6" about 133lbs
I recently learned about this youtube channel. I am INCREDIBLY grateful for a channel that "gets the concept" that there is much more complexity to metabolism than simply "meat equals bad" and "vegan equals good." Interesting enough, I believe a "religious" attachment to a particular nutritional model (e.g. veganism) is indeed caused by a spiritual motivation...but not a good one. Rather, I see it as a spiritual deficit for which "food religions" act as a means to compensate. The idea posed on this channel that (1) omnivore isn't automatically bad and (2) you should eat foods and proportions that reflect your lifestyle...is fantastic. Ok, one last note, I do think there is *something* worth being "religious" about when it comes to food. And that is (1) avoiding/detoxing from pathogens like PCB's and heavy metals and (2) avoiding processed foods, high sugars, and seed oils...basically "foods" and portions that our ancestors never knew. Do that, and exercise, and you will do well!
Nice talk! But what about the postulated connection between myoglobin in red meat and the N-nitrosoamines formed during digestion that are cancerogenic?! Would love to hear comments on that issue!
I would like him to chime in also but if you actually look up what you are talking about it has very little evidence that it causes cancer.... sure some lab rats have been used in some studies but if you do any research on the mice they use in these studies you will realize its all a sham. I suggest looking up the reason mice they use in the labs and the problems with them. And if you really wanted to dig up some stuff you could research how vegans have a higher mortality rate than meat eaters... including cancers of various kinds.
According to Thomas Seyfried PhD, certain cancers such as lymphoma use glutamine more as an energy source than glucose. Meats are high in glutamine. Further, factory raised beef is higher in omega 6 which is connected with arterial diseases. So, it depends on the health situation of each individual as to whether or not they should consume meat. A good video dispelling the general fear of meat, but it would be helpful if these other subtitles were added.
Exactly. Some people are acting like meat is a cure all when they clearly were just allergic to some food that they ended up cutting out. They're probably all going to have other issues due to the meat consumption down the line.
I have Dr Seyfried's book "Cancer as a Metabolic Disease". He and his research teams are literally exploring potential cancer therapeutics combined with Ketogenic diets. Why? Because unlike healthy cells, cancer cells cannot effectively utilize ketones for fuel. Seyfried is well aware of Otto Warburg's groundbreaking research on cancer from 100 years ago. Cancer cells voraciously ferment glucose for energy. (PET scans take advantage of this fact by using radio-labeled glucose to locate tumors via imaging.) And yes. the amino acid Glutamine can also be fermented for fuel by certain cancer cells. I suspect that Seyfried will start experimenting with carnivore diets, if he hasn't begun already. Because nothing induces ketosis as effectively as a zero carb diet.
I don’t know! Maybe we should ask the Mongels who just ate horse meat once a week. They had the largest empire on earth and the only ones who were able to concur Russia in the dead of winter.
When will people learn a psychopath doesn’t care who they hurt. That’s the textbook definition. Buy their prescription drugs no matter what, and don’t eat right.
Based on my own experience eating real foods, natural high quality foods in moderation with limit combine with daily exercise and IF bring excellent health benefits. I tried carnivore and Keto diets, and experienced some negative effects. We don't know what our body is missing and it's impossible to test often and everything. I don't go with any particular diets but focus on what I eat and exercise (never miss a day, rain or shine). Any good thing when overused lead to harm. Diets are good for a temporary time to treat some health issues. Healthy people should consume varieties of foods in my opinion.
178 days strict carnivore, TRT and I take 2month cycle of Pro-IGF1. I'm also in the gym working out 6 days every single week. I get my bloodwork done extensively every 2 months and have normal ranges of everything. Not sure what the negatives are about supplementing IGF-1 pills with TRT and Lion Diet. Any insight?
at the last part of the video. say i Don't excersice. what is the recommended amount of protein per day if I'm carnivore. i typically never go beyond 100 to 110 grams per day even when I'm excersicing is that bad ? . also is carnivore in general bad long term ? in terms of cvc and cancer risk especially colon cancer ?
Where are the studies saying exercise reduces your chances of getting cancer? Heart disease, yes, diabetes yes, all-cause mortality yes, but not cancer. Given that cancer is fairly uncommon for individuals that don't have other risk factors, and cardiac and metabolic diseases are fairly common, especially in people that don't exercise, I would say you're better off to take your chances with exercise, even if there is a correlation here. A moderate amount of exercise is probably not going to raise you IGF that much anyway.
I think fasting would play a role in balancing things out. So if you eat meat, and then run Longo's FMD for 5 days a few times a year you might be getting the best of both worlds.
I think that IGF-1, growth hormone, and other anabolic signalling factors are an issue if you already HAVE cancer. But for anyone to say that they CAUSE cancer is another story. People forget there is a huge difference between pre and post cancer nutrition.
Isn't how the meat is cooked not being considered hear either? Cuz I can imagine using a grill to cook red meat using some poor quality wood or charcoal creating toxic smoke when burned would definitely attribute to cancer causing
WHO does specify protein levels for sustenance: 0.36 grams of protein per pound of body weight, the Dietary Reference Intake. Granted some interpret that as a max where I see that as a minimum. If you're exercising then 0.7-1 g/ per your lean mass (remove fat weight) should be ok. Body builders will do 1.5 g of protein / pound of body weight and beyond (haven't actually found literature for that yet). It's one of those topics. Healthline has a good summary.
Has it been considered that one of the reasons red meat is linked to cancer is not necessarily because of the meat itself but what may be in the food that animals eat before we eat them? Why? If antibiotics and other additives are given to animals to grow bigger and faster, what is this doing to our bodies as this protein is consumed. Would it not be more beneficial to consume meat from grass fed animals to receive more positive benefits of animal protein?
I feel that the comment about those on carnivore eating too much protein is unwarranted. I will agree with you if they are drinking protein shakes or liquids but if someone is eating a whole foods meat there is an indir limited due to satiety. It impossible for anyone to over eat on proteins the way you described if they are not have them as liquid. Whether a person exercise or not, the body will send stop signals when enough is enough. Furthermore, what we eat don't mean what gets absorbed. The body also slows down digestion and this also limits when you take the next meal, if there is too much. Meat Al's gets passed off down to the toilet. Those eating carnivore diet can tell you that.
The NIH came out with this paper in 2014. Do you know who was working for them and was a Director at the NH/NIAID at that time? Does “Someone needs to grab that little elf and chuck him across the Potomac" sound familiar to you? I do believe the Great Governor of Florida, Ron Di Santis said that recently about this POS.
I exercise on a frequent basis. Have a balanced diet. Don’t indulge in refined sugary food or any other of that other processed nonsense. Just whole foods. Eat red meat probably every other day. I feel great and I rarely get sick if ever.
Any scientific research suggesting we should not eat meat gets headlines while any benefits are ignored. Pretty soon shows like this will violate CZcams's terms.
How about methionine the essential amino acid that cancer cells are addicted to? Carnivore or even keto diets are also high methionin diets. There is a clinical trial in which with a recombinant methionase they try to remove/lower methionine and therefore, treat advanced cancers.
IME it is very difficult to overeat on a carnivore diet, particularly with a constrained feeding window. If I stay on a keto diet, with OMAD, then weight gain is very difficult to achieve. If I were engaged in a HIIT program, then I would need to eat two meals a day to fuel that additional calorie expenditure. This would facilitate the growth of lean muscle mass. Personally, I cannot effectively gain lean muscle mass on OMAD. And, I cannot gain adipose tissue without either consuming carbs or expanding my feeding window, or both.

Everything you eat probably has some kind of study that says its good for you and another that says its bad for you. The only carbs I eat in my diet is one avocado per day. Today I heard a video that said avocados will give you heart disease, because of an antifungal in the seeds and skin called Persin. Alittle of the Persin gets into the meat of the fruit. I just try and monitor whats going with my body, how I look and how I feel. If I'm sleeping good, loosing fat, building muscle, not getting sick, urine is a nice clear yellow, stool is regular and formed, Blood pressure is good, resting pulse is low 50's, A1C=4.5, Triglycerides =62, I'm 46 and in the best shape of my life. But now I'm going to die because I eat red meat and avocados. I guess I'll did happy at 230 lbs compared to when I was 380 lbs sad and depressed, crying for no reason sometimes. No body said anything about my diet or that it would kill me. Know people see me and they want to know my exercise routine, what supplements I take and what foods I eat. Then when I tell them what I eat they say "That's going to clog your arteries", as they're slamming down a Pepsi and Doritos. All I know is anything in excess will kill you. You can drink to much water and die. I figure if I feel good today chances are I will feel good tomorrow. The same goes the other way, if you feel bad today you most likely will feel bad tomorrow. Thats if you keep doing the same thing. I have been feeling good for a while now and I have been consistenly eating the same exact foods every day. This is my daily consumption. 1 dozen eggs, 1 lbs 85/15 grass fed beef, one can of sardines, 4 oz of grass fed butter one avocado and 2 tsp of redmans real salt. I will eat fruit on occasion but I have to be careful, fruit can be a gateway drug for me sometimes. I think thats around 3200 calories. That pretty much keeps my weight the same give or take a pound daily. If I want to loose some fat and tighten up I decrease the butter, if I want to add weight I add butter. Someone might think that it is a restrictive diet but I dont see it that way. Every time I have one of my meals, it is delicious. I spread that list of food out to 4 meals in a day. I call it protein dosing with food. Instead of disgusting protein shakes I just eat food that has protein and all the other building blocks for my body. I'm not against people's use of protein shakes but for me it's a no go. I tried it once I got it down and it tasted good but after I finished it I then projectile vomited all over the carpet, and that was my last protein shake. I just started using creatine about 2 months ago, and I take magnesium glycinate before bed.

I have gotten rid of two ailments from eating only beef for the past 6 months and have never felt better. My mood is so much better. Meat is the most healing food on the planet. I now fully believe that the campaign against meat is a campaign against humanity.
Campaign sounds political. Do politicians have any credibility anymore?
@@doogiedoesyoutubable exactly and I think they’ve got none left personally
The original low fat diet was a sham study in the first place. It was pushed hard and taken up by health professionals and it still persists today. We switched a few months ago and the differences are amazing.
Now governments (Canadá for certain) are pushing health guides with lots of grains, low fat, margarine, industrial oils and the food industry is stepping up with lots of processed crap to make it “convenient”. So, yes, it is a campaign and is political as health is one of the three factors that allows people to have their own independence. Poor health equal reliance on drugs and government “health care” (which is really sick management) and this puts people under government control. But that gets into another story.
@@jeffmoodie6144 exactly! It’s so sinister that Trudeau and his cabinet are all WEF cronies purposely destroying the Canadian farm industry through ‘green’ regulAtions, with their goal for us to eat the processed toxic junk that the food companies that the WEF are lobbyists for produce. We need to stand up for regenerative farming and real meat. We will have the fight of our lives on our hands with this one.

Thanks Mike, great info as usual! Flawed bias data never stopped anyone that had an agenda… I bet we won’t be seeing a study on the effects of estrogen in the impossible burgers anytime soon.
This area (soy) has already been highly studied , though no direct study on Impossible Burgers. At least 41 studies have been published on Soy's effects of testosterone and estrogen in men from 2010 -2020. The paper below, a meta analysis, did not find any negative effect on male hormones.
"Concerns that the phytoestrogens (isoflavones) in soy may feminize men continue to be raised. Several studies and case-reports describing feminizing effects including lowering testosterone levels and raising estrogen levels in men have been published. For this reason, the clinical data were meta-analyzed to determine whether soy or isoflavone intake affects total testosterone (TT), free testosterone (FT), estradiol (E2), estrone (E1), and sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG). PubMed and CAB Abstracts databases were searched between 2010 and April 2020, with use of controlled vocabulary specific to the databases. Peer-reviewed studies published in English were selected if (1) adult men consumed soyfoods, soy protein, or isoflavone extracts (from soy or red clover) and [2] circulating TT, FT, SHBG, E2 or E1 was assessed. Data were extracted by two independent reviewers. With one exception, studies included in a 2010 meta-analysis were included in the current analysis. A total of 41 studies were included in the analyses. TT and FT levels were measured in 1753 and 752 men, respectively; E2 and E1 levels were measured in 1000 and 239 men, respectively and SHBG was measured in 967 men. Regardless of the statistical model, no significant effects of soy protein or isoflavone intake on any of the outcomes measured were found. Sub-analysis of the data according to isoflavone dose and study duration also showed no effect. This updated and expanded meta-analysis indicates that regardless of dose and study duration, neither soy protein nor isoflavone exposure affects TT, FT, E2 or E1 levels in men.
Reed KE, Camargo J, Hamilton-Reeves J, Kurzer M, Messina M. Neither soy nor isoflavone intake affects male reproductive hormones: An expanded and updated meta-analysis of clinical studies. Reprod Toxicol. 2021 Mar.
Also, note this comment:
"To date, no studies have shown eating soy or isoflavones in moderation can feminize males or affect childhood development. Soy products have been a mainstay in Asian diets for centuries with no detriment to the male population, Marion Nestle, a professor of nutrition and food studies at New York University, told The Washington Post in 2019. "
Given all that, I am still not eating an Impossible Burger, nor will I be eating a regular beef burger. People scared me off soy more than 20 years ago, so it's not something I have eaten. I don't plan to take it up again. I would eat it in restaurant though. I have had miso soup in the last year.
The other thing to note is that an Impossible Burger gets part of its flavor from the addition of heme iron. It is suspected that high blood levels of iron (typically from animal foods, particularly read meat) may cause one to biologically age faster. If one ate copious amounts of Impossible Burgers, perhaps one may have the same potential iron problem that one could get from red meat. On the other hand, for people low in iron, read meat and impossible burgers may have some benefit to them. One could reduce their iron levels by donating blood. Perhaps one could also do that through copious amounts of exercise?
"Dr Paul Timmers from the Usher Institute at the University of Edinburgh, said: "We are very excited by these findings as they strongly suggest that high levels of iron in the blood reduces our healthy years of life, and keeping these levels in check could prevent age-related damage. We speculate that our findings on iron metabolism might also start to explain why very high levels of iron-rich red meat in the diet has been linked to age-related conditions such as heart disease."

@@jackbuaer3828 Oh my, someone with a brain. I love you. Incredibly thorough response to a tired and stale argument against eating a plant based diet. But aside from the well documented fact that soy doesn’t feminize men (based of irrefutable empirical data), the more important point is that you can eat a healthy plant based diet completely devoid of soy and imitation meats, if you so wished. But yeah, the cool thing is to hate vegans regardless of the facts.
Shoot, I eat a carnivore diet. 😬 never felt better💁♀️🤷♀️
I'm super curious about the carnivore diet. Would you be able to break down a typical day of eating on this diet? What would you eat for breakfast, lunch, and dinner?
I do carnivore and eat 1 meal per day. Typically 2 pounds of fatty red meat, always cooked with raw butter or tallow. Never been in better shape or felt better!
@@nica1 eggs are a staple
its not because of meat its what the meat replaced. if you been eating processed food then obviously almost all and any diets will improve

Thank you, I live about 90% on red meat and have almost reversed my ms
its not because of your consumption but rather replacement of stuff you probably was harming your health
@@torpedohost Exactly this. Every carnivore and vegan would be better off incorporating some form of meat and vegetables into their diets. It's the elimination aspect that does the trick.
@@BasedChadman That may or may not be true, some of it has to do with the microbiome of the gut, when you completely stop eating fiber and sugar those particular bacteria die and new bacteria that lives on the meat takes it's place. there has been studies showing some disease looks to be cause by these bacteria leaking from the gut into the rest of the body.
This shit is complicated...
Yeah I definitely find it bizarre because red meat seems to be like the best kind of meat to consume
Corn/soy fed vs grass fed/finished would be interesting.
I raise grass finished lamb and beef. I have been trying to spread this gospel truth about eating healthy natural red meat in combination with exercising especially out doors in the sun! Yeah you sire for spreading the truth. Support your local farmers folks! They'll have your back when no one does.
This is exactly how I live. Especially eat grass finished cow meat. My god my health is so vibrant now.
“Match your protein with your activity level”: would love for you to dig into this / expand on your reasons for saying this. Have heard others say this before but they never ever offer a mechanistic explanation for why this might be the case. That overall calories, and in particular fat and carbs, should be commensurate with activity level makes sense. But I thought protein requirements / what you need to feel satiated would track more with your lean muscle mass, not your activity level per se
"Red meat is bad!". *Proceeds to eat pseudo meats and plants pumped with insecticides. 🤡
…and coming to a supermarket near you soon… bugs. Watch for cricket flour in baked goods. Although carnivore diet precludes this particular issue as does just not eating processed crap in the first place.
Titrate your protein intake to your activity level. And when you do eat It, make sure it’s high quality. You’re the man Mike, May God Bless you 🙏🏽
Exactly, context matters. Thank you!
This would mean that the paleolithic people had high cancer rates. From a Darwinian prospective this does not add up.
Here is the issue. IGF-1 is also stimulated by carbohydrates as well. So, while protein from red meat may elevate IGF-1, protein, unlike carbohydrates, facilitates better long term satiety. This, in turn, can make longer term fasting easier, which will mean less *CHRONIC* stimulation of IGF-1. Thus, this very satiating protein militates against the "possible" carcinogenesis of IGF-1 by reducing chronic exposure. Conversely, a low protein, and therefore higher carb diet, will make the practitioner of such a diet more ravenous and less likely to endure longer bouts of fasting, which will in turn will lead to more frequent elevations in IGF-1.
Precisely!!
Additionally, one must consider the Warburg effect. "Nearly a century ago, Otto Warburg discovered that tumors consume tremendous amounts of glucose relative to most non-transformed tissues. A hallmark of cancer is the preference of cancer cells to metabolize glucose anaerobically rather than aerobically. "
@@brett6468 Yes. That is a great point.
Nope! If you eat smaller meals during the day you spike it less, smaller amounts right? Not all carb foods are high glycemic foods, then youd have to factor in whether all other potential problematic baddies in meat such as AGE's, methionine, mTOR, Nueg5, heterocyclic amines as well as Igf1 surges a better option than going lower on meat and eating more plants
Meat can’t be beat !!

Thanks Mike. First thing that pops into my mind when I hear "Insulin-like GF" is chronically elevated insulin caused from carbohydrate consumption.... so why blame red meat for an insulin-like GF when you could lower actual insulin?
You are correct. Insulin is the real problem.
Except you can have insulin like gf from eating only meat. It isn't just a carbohydrate issues. There is a carnivore (ex doctor because his license was revoked) who has a youtube channel and he became pre diabetic on the carnivore diet.

While I agree about the nonsense about cancer and meat, I disagree about quantities of meat ingested that can cause problems. No. And that's because in meat and animals products you get all the nutrients and it's almost impossible to over eat. Our bodies just ask for the right amount of nutrients. They'll ask food until you'll provide everything necessary for recovery, building or properly function. Nothing more. If you eat junk, then he'll ask for nutrients until he'll get everything. If the food doesn't have, you'll overeat some things and this fact will do 2 things: stress the organs (liver, pancreas, colon etc) and will store fat. Is that simple.
Now this is the best way ive heard it. Well put!!
@@dncgoods this all sounds good but it is completely divorced from empirical reality.
Honestly, as soon as I heard the term "relative risk" I already knew the verbal and statistical slight of hand trick was going on in this study. "Relative risk", unless such relative risk is as enormous as the carcinogenic risk of smoking, which is in the hundreds if not a thousand percent (I can't recall which), is mostly used in epidemiology to make something look more precarious than it really is. Frankly, it should be considered scientific misconduct to represent relative risk ratios to the public, without first explaining how insignificant that is in absolute terms.
Would love a discussion between Valter Longo and Peter Attia on this.
Looking forward to seeing you at Low Carb Denver.
I respectfully want to amend your conclusion. Sedentary vs active, natural appetite will regulate protein intake sufficiently. It's carbs that must be earned with muscle use.
I'm a seasonal eater. Lots of garden stuff all summer including wild edibles. I love dandelions, clover and I'm Berry crazy. Pine needle tea tastes good!
I like fat when it's cold. Perhaps because I try to listen to my body it could be a placebo affect.
I've seen videos on how fat travels through the blood stream. I believe the fat makes more work for the heart thus making me warmer....
How would you feel about IGF-1 from eating butter and/or sour cream for an insulin-resistant person?
You’re so insightful, thank you for sharing and using science and informed analysis .
What I don’t get is why when people eat red meat it’s important that the animal that they consume only eats a plant based diet.?
I’m not being Sarcastic , I’m really serious .
A lot of bodybuilders would be falling from cancer. They purposely elevate igf-1 around the clock. They aren't the healthiest bunch, but it's not usually cancer that brings them down.
Very informative. Thanks. I've never worried about IGF, but I have often wondered about the amount of protein intake. I have worked on 1.5X my body weight, but I do find I feel healthier and stronger eating protein which I source from meat, chicken, fish and eggs. As much as I love meat, it's not my only source of protein.
I like the insight you have on protein intake relative to level of exercise. It would also be interesting to hear if IGF is in other protein sources like chicken, fish and eggs or is it just a meat thing.
Some great thoughts though. 👍
Hey John. I think people are more concerned about protein but pay no attention to Saturated fats.
If I take in to much protein and not enough fats, I get sore after a workout.
I believe fats are more important then trying to calculate your protein intake. I would much rather eat a chicken leg with all the skin on, then a lean chicken breast.

@@lorenbeaulieu2896 @@lorenbeaulieu2896 Yes. I still have to be convinced about saturated fats being good for you. I know the other fats may be good for you, but I'm not so sure about saturated fats. I eat saturated fats, but I keep them to a minimum. Ditto for trans fatty acids.
@@JohnSmith-zo6ir I am the opposite. Saturated fats transport nutrients throughout our body, Unsaturated fats do not.

Taurine and IGF-1 have an interesting relationship. Taurine also interferes with cancer proliferation.
I believe what we see from those earlier studies are as stated, small number of people making a large difference due to small sample size used.
What we do see in communities that eat fresh meat that would be high in taurine is low cancer incidence. Perhaps the issue can be as simple as low taurine in meat from the supermarket (water soluble so most of it is gone by the time you even get to cook it) not interacting with IGF-1.
Excellent video with great information. I've been in both camps, Carnivore and Vegan. I now eat Pescetarian, and I increase my protein as needed.

"match protein to activity level". Yes, we don't put high octane racing fuel into a Yugo but into a racing car only.

I eat mostly red meat and exercise 🥩🏋🏼 lol I’m not worried one bit.
Media is promoting to take protein to keep muscle mass, especially for senior people. However, if people do not damage muscle fibers by exerting stress on them (exercising), their bodies do not use the protein consumed. Those protein would become excessive calories and are stored as fat. Then, people get further sedentary because they do not have enough muscles to move their own weights. Why don't nursing homes offer their residents strength training?
First I really enjoy your channel! I love the deep dives into all things health and fitness and have made some small changes that have resulted in wonderful improvements (especially sleep related). Not related to cancer but perhaps other conditions related to meat and dairy, Medcram has a video called “Salic acids cause inflammation and Disease” from about a year ago. I would be interested in your take on this especially as it gets fairly technical. My understanding is that these are molecules which are attached to proteins from mammals (but not poultry or fish). They get absorbed my our bodies and then our immune systems see them as foreign bodies and then the immune system attacks those cells, producing inflammation.
Low igf1 doesn’t cause cancer. The bell shaped curve is a representation of mortality, not cancer…
Also when people get cancer they are told to go on low protein diet, which influences the left side of the curve unless the study is very long term.
Another great article Mike👏 thanks👌
It would be good to know which animal proteins have less IGF. For example does fish have less than red meat?
What do people quickly want meat to be demonized when sugar and it’s derivatives cause such horrible problems with our society?
follow money trail
If your a consumer of red meat (almost daily like myself) and but also exercise, lifting weights etc and both potentially raises igf1, than I'm going to die of cancer? Or at least get it. I'm 43 fairly healthy. 5'6" about 133lbs
I recently learned about this youtube channel. I am INCREDIBLY grateful for a channel that "gets the concept" that there is much more complexity to metabolism than simply "meat equals bad" and "vegan equals good."
Interesting enough, I believe a "religious" attachment to a particular nutritional model (e.g. veganism) is indeed caused by a spiritual motivation...but not a good one. Rather, I see it as a spiritual deficit for which "food religions" act as a means to compensate.
The idea posed on this channel that (1) omnivore isn't automatically bad and (2) you should eat foods and proportions that reflect your lifestyle...is fantastic.
Ok, one last note, I do think there is *something* worth being "religious" about when it comes to food. And that is (1) avoiding/detoxing from pathogens like PCB's and heavy metals and (2) avoiding processed foods, high sugars, and seed oils...basically "foods" and portions that our ancestors never knew. Do that, and exercise, and you will do well!
The key is moderation in everything, even in moderation.
Nice talk! But what about the postulated connection between myoglobin in red meat and the N-nitrosoamines formed during digestion that are cancerogenic?!
Would love to hear comments on that issue!
I would like him to chime in also but if you actually look up what you are talking about it has very little evidence that it causes cancer.... sure some lab rats have been used in some studies but if you do any research on the mice they use in these studies you will realize its all a sham. I suggest looking up the reason mice they use in the labs and the problems with them. And if you really wanted to dig up some stuff you could research how vegans have a higher mortality rate than meat eaters... including cancers of various kinds.
According to Thomas Seyfried PhD, certain cancers such as lymphoma use glutamine more as an energy source than glucose. Meats are high in glutamine. Further, factory raised beef is higher in omega 6 which is connected with arterial diseases. So, it depends on the health situation of each individual as to whether or not they should consume meat. A good video dispelling the general fear of meat, but it would be helpful if these other subtitles were added.
Exactly. Some people are acting like meat is a cure all when they clearly were just allergic to some food that they ended up cutting out. They're probably all going to have other issues due to the meat consumption down the line.
I have Dr Seyfried's book "Cancer as a Metabolic Disease". He and his research teams are literally exploring potential cancer therapeutics combined with Ketogenic diets. Why? Because unlike healthy cells, cancer cells cannot effectively utilize ketones for fuel. Seyfried is well aware of Otto Warburg's groundbreaking research on cancer from 100 years ago. Cancer cells voraciously ferment glucose for energy. (PET scans take advantage of this fact by using radio-labeled glucose to locate tumors via imaging.) And yes. the amino acid Glutamine can also be fermented for fuel by certain cancer cells. I suspect that Seyfried will start experimenting with carnivore diets, if he hasn't begun already. Because nothing induces ketosis as effectively as a zero carb diet.
I don’t know! Maybe we should ask the Mongels who just ate horse meat once a week. They had the largest empire on earth and the only ones who were able to concur Russia in the dead of winter.

Based on my own experience eating real foods, natural high quality foods in moderation with limit combine with daily exercise and IF bring excellent health benefits. I tried carnivore and Keto diets, and experienced some negative effects. We don't know what our body is missing and it's impossible to test often and everything. I don't go with any particular diets but focus on what I eat and exercise (never miss a day, rain or shine). Any good thing when overused lead to harm.
Diets are good for a temporary time to treat some health issues. Healthy people should consume varieties of foods in my opinion.
Yeah women tend to do worse with keto and carnivore. Could be that they need to store more fat through carbs consumption. Who knows

Nutrition is such complex system of interconnections and relationships that narrowing down to a single factor never gives a clear or full picture.
at the last part of the video. say i Don't excersice. what is the recommended amount of protein per day if I'm carnivore. i typically never go beyond 100 to 110 grams per day even when I'm excersicing is that bad ? . also is carnivore in general bad long term ? in terms of cvc and cancer risk especially colon cancer ?
Where are the studies saying exercise reduces your chances of getting cancer? Heart disease, yes, diabetes yes, all-cause mortality yes, but not cancer. Given that cancer is fairly uncommon for individuals that don't have other risk factors, and cardiac and metabolic diseases are fairly common, especially in people that don't exercise, I would say you're better off to take your chances with exercise, even if there is a correlation here. A moderate amount of exercise is probably not going to raise you IGF that much anyway.
How does the creatine and taurine in the electrolyte Stix effect someone who is not very active? (ie exercises only twice a week)
Awesome information thanks for making me use my brain
I think fasting would play a role in balancing things out. So if you eat meat, and then run Longo's FMD for 5 days a few times a year you might be getting the best of both worlds.
Thanks for adding to info on proteins
I think that IGF-1, growth hormone, and other anabolic signalling factors are an issue if you already HAVE cancer. But for anyone to say that they CAUSE cancer is another story. People forget there is a huge difference between pre and post cancer nutrition.

Mike....I just want to say...You are awesome! I appreciate you!😁
WHO does specify protein levels for sustenance: 0.36 grams of protein per pound of body weight, the Dietary Reference Intake. Granted some interpret that as a max where I see that as a minimum. If you're exercising then 0.7-1 g/ per your lean mass (remove fat weight) should be ok. Body builders will do 1.5 g of protein / pound of body weight and beyond (haven't actually found literature for that yet). It's one of those topics. Healthline has a good summary.
Has it been considered that one of the reasons red meat is linked to cancer is not necessarily because of the meat itself but what may be in the food that animals eat before we eat them? Why? If antibiotics and other additives are given to animals to grow bigger and faster, what is this doing to our bodies as this protein is consumed. Would it not be more beneficial to consume meat from grass fed animals to receive more positive benefits of animal protein?
I feel that the comment about those on carnivore eating too much protein is unwarranted. I will agree with you if they are drinking protein shakes or liquids but if someone is eating a whole foods meat there is an indir limited due to satiety. It impossible for anyone to over eat on proteins the way you described if they are not have them as liquid. Whether a person exercise or not, the body will send stop signals when enough is enough. Furthermore, what we eat don't mean what gets absorbed. The body also slows down digestion and this also limits when you take the next meal, if there is too much. Meat Al's gets passed off down to the toilet. Those eating carnivore diet can tell you that.
Thank you!

Any scientific research suggesting we should not eat meat gets headlines while any benefits are ignored. Pretty soon shows like this will violate CZcams's terms.
How about methionine the essential amino acid that cancer cells are addicted to? Carnivore or even keto diets are also high methionin diets. There is a clinical trial in which with a recombinant methionase they try to remove/lower methionine and therefore, treat advanced cancers.
IME it is very difficult to overeat on a carnivore diet, particularly with a constrained feeding window. If I stay on a keto diet, with OMAD, then weight gain is very difficult to achieve. If I were engaged in a HIIT program, then I would need to eat two meals a day to fuel that additional calorie expenditure. This would facilitate the growth of lean muscle mass. Personally, I cannot effectively gain lean muscle mass on OMAD. And, I cannot gain adipose tissue without either consuming carbs or expanding my feeding window, or both.
Isn't the cancer for red meat from the charred parts when you grille it?

@@gerofiore9695 hi actually no .
I’ve been Gluten and Dairy free for about 15 years and Vegan for 6 years.
It’s definitely not a diet .It’s a lifestyle .
I Love animals so don’t eat them .
Once you make that connection that they are beings with Souls you can never go back .
There are so many options of Plant Proteins . I don’t ever miss eating meat.
And Salad is Not at the top of my list.
Lol!!
But you ate 47 years of your life animal foods that made you healthy.
@@sebk174 not really , I was never a red meat eater , never liked it even as a kid.
@@sebk174 so it was chicken , Turkey and eggs that I ate , haven’t had Dairy in prob over 15 years .
Everything you eat probably has some kind of study that says its good for you and another that says its bad for you. The only carbs I eat in my diet is one avocado per day. Today I heard a video that said avocados will give you heart disease, because of an antifungal in the seeds and skin called Persin. Alittle of the Persin gets into the meat of the fruit. I just try and monitor whats going with my body, how I look and how I feel. If I'm sleeping good, loosing fat, building muscle, not getting sick, urine is a nice clear yellow, stool is regular and formed, Blood pressure is good, resting pulse is low 50's, A1C=4.5, Triglycerides =62, I'm 46 and in the best shape of my life. But now I'm going to die because I eat red meat and avocados. I guess I'll did happy at 230 lbs compared to when I was 380 lbs sad and depressed, crying for no reason sometimes. No body said anything about my diet or that it would kill me. Know people see me and they want to know my exercise routine, what supplements I take and what foods I eat. Then when I tell them what I eat they say "That's going to clog your arteries", as they're slamming down a Pepsi and Doritos. All I know is anything in excess will kill you. You can drink to much water and die. I figure if I feel good today chances are I will feel good tomorrow. The same goes the other way, if you feel bad today you most likely will feel bad tomorrow. Thats if you keep doing the same thing. I have been feeling good for a while now and I have been consistenly eating the same exact foods every day. This is my daily consumption. 1 dozen eggs, 1 lbs 85/15 grass fed beef, one can of sardines, 4 oz of grass fed butter one avocado and 2 tsp of redmans real salt. I will eat fruit on occasion but I have to be careful, fruit can be a gateway drug for me sometimes. I think thats around 3200 calories. That pretty much keeps my weight the same give or take a pound daily. If I want to loose some fat and tighten up I decrease the butter, if I want to add weight I add butter. Someone might think that it is a restrictive diet but I dont see it that way. Every time I have one of my meals, it is delicious. I spread that list of food out to 4 meals in a day. I call it protein dosing with food. Instead of disgusting protein shakes I just eat food that has protein and all the other building blocks for my body. I'm not against people's use of protein shakes but for me it's a no go. I tried it once I got it down and it tasted good but after I finished it I then projectile vomited all over the carpet, and that was my last protein shake. I just started using creatine about 2 months ago, and I take magnesium glycinate before bed.
Strength to you - sounds great
