- Recent research suggests low carb diets could improve the lives of people suffering from obesity and diabetes.
Reporter, Dr Maryanne Demasi, asks international advocates, sports scientists and Australia’s leading nutritionists is it just another fad or is there more to cutting the carbs?

For type 2 diabetics like me, keto has been a godsend. Before keto, I was on up to 120 units of Lantus insulin a day, I was seriously overweight, and my kidney function was declining, putting me on a path to be on dialysis in 18 months. After going on keto, I lost weight so that 3 years later, I'm down 65 lbs, back to a weight I hadn't seen since my 20s (I'm 75). My blood sugar also fell and I started coming off insulin. Now I haven't been on insulin for 2 years and my last a1c was 5.6. My kidney numbers also improved, and I'm no longer in danger of going on dialysis. For me, carbs are like nicotine from smoking - they're extremely addictive, but deadly. I had to quit "cold turkey" and commit to not being tempted to eat them any more. Fortunately, my wife is an excellent cook, and makes delicious keto meals every day, so it isn't difficult to stay on this diet. She specializes in international cuisine, making Italian, Mexican, Indian, Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Thai, and Middle Eastern dishes, among others, so a keto diet doesn't have to be boring at all.
Very happy to hear this, thank you for sharing!
@@bk6010 The thing about keto is that it won't work if you only go half way, either by cheating or because you don't know what foods have carbs. If you try it, make sure you know the carb count of every food you eat. Best of luck!
You go carnivore the results get even better :)
@@nickjohnson811 You will have to stay keto though. As not ingesting carbs only covers the cause of diabetes type 2. The fat inside the muscle cells that cause insulin resistance itself (intramyocellular lipids) that interfere with opening the glucose transporter. If you do not ingest sugar, then insulin resistance won't matter. However, that is the actual cause. You are only treating symptoms right now.
@@BenediktLohmann Carbohydrates are not required to sustain human life. There are zero essential carbs. Cutting out carbs doesn't cover anything it eliminates an unnecessary toxin. Carbs/ sugars are converted into triglycerides and stored in fat cells. Insulin is a fat storage hormone.
I have struggled with my weight since I've hit puberty. Tried everything. Became vegetarian. Vegan. Nope. Nothing worked. I exercised 3 hours a day. Ran marathons. Now, I'm not massively obese, but chunky. Went on medicine to control my appetite. Didn't eat any junk food. Started a ketogenic diet of high fat, no carbs, moderate protein.
3 weeks into it:
Constant lethargy-gone
Inability to focus-gone
Acne-clearing up (fucking 40 with acne)
Energy-restored
Inability to sleep at night-gone
Inability to wake up in the morning-gone, get up without alarm and exercise
Suicidal depression-gone
Inability to break my weightless plataue for 6 months, broken
Hunger-ok, I still get hungry but not like I use to. LOL. I will never go back to carb eating again. No pasta taste as good as I feel. I'm not saying this is the cure for everybody, I'm saying this worked for me.
@C K I have been on a carb restricted diet for 18 months now and and it is not what the naysayers say it is. It can be if you do it wrong, but the biggest restriction in my diet is processed carbs. Stop eating processed foods and your carb intake will drop dramatically. So no flour products, and wheat and oatmeal no sugar and that includes soft drinks and juice, smoothies, cut out white rice and wash/rinse rice well before cooking, cut out ALL vegetable oils and margarine (olive oil is not a vegetable oil, it comes from a fruit whilst vegetable oils are actually seed oils and your body does not like them. If can't cut them all out long term at least restrict them dramatically.
My consumption of fat and protein has only increased marginally and this is because I don't eat as much as I used to, but I eat when I am hungry, Processed Carbs (sugars) are .addictive and the more you eat the more you want.
My weight has dropped and it was all fat and some water retention that is gone and the IBS I had a bit of is gone along with a reduction in skin irritation.
You can loose weight faster by cutting back on the higher carb veg and replacing them with more and more green leafy veg. Reduce the high carb and high sugar fruits and eat more berries. Once you are at your target weight you can eat more carbs, just not the processed ones.
The key to any diet is to get a good range of needed fats, mineral vitamins from real food. Vegan, vego or omnivore it doesn't matter as much as getting the whole range. It is harder as a Veg to get the saturated fats you need, but not impossible.
God bless you and bless keto. Stay in control as much as you can.
What do you think about keto adabtation.I've been on the keto diet for 3 months and still low nergy.How long does it take to adapt to Keto?Please help me.
⚃ nice to hear. Remember though resistance exercise is very important.
You are not the only one! Love low carb diet! ❤️
KETO has given me back my life. 60lbs off, not taking metformin for diabetes any longer, blood pressure normal, lots of energy and focus. Confidence is better than ever. 👍🏻
same here
@@tangocharlie9291 Thanks! 👍🏻
As long as you know that a keto diet increases mortality, then good on you.
Can u share more.about what u ate? I want to be off metformin too
@@healergodwinks7796 Dr. Neil Barnard has been curing diabetes for years. Getting people of metformin … and he CURES them. Does mask the disease by keeping sugars low, but cures it completely. Plus does it with a diet that doesn’t increase mortality. People who eat a Keto diet actually live reduce their life expectancy. There are no studies out there that show otherwise. Gary Taubes paid for a study to show a low carb diet was healthy but they found otherwise. What did Gary do? He trashed the study he paid for!
The sugar you eat today is the sugar you crave tomorrow.
Lol
true that?
And tommorow you Will be craving 2times amount of today..day by day 😂
The fat you eat is the fat you wear
You mean sugar daddy
Yes this works! I lost 120lbs in 8 months on low carb 20 grams or less a day no sugar with intermittent fasting. I'm off all my meds and feel amazing!!
Yay Becky!
Daaaamn.....
Awesome
I'd check your liver and kidney numbers
Awesome....thanka foe posting
To lose weight most people do not need to be on 20 grams or less a day. Many will get great responses from less than 100 grams per day.
The real key to the weight loss is not the total daily amount but how much you are eating every meal. So if most people can stay below 10% carbohydrates per meal they will get spectacular results.
The best line said was they tell lactose intolerant people to cut out dairy.... why not tell diabetics to cut sugar/carbs.
@@mattp379 WRONG. "Type 1 diabetes, once known as juvenile diabetes or insulin-dependent diabetes, is a chronic condition in which the pancreas produces little or no insulin. Insulin is a hormone needed to allow sugar (glucose) to enter cells to produce energy." -Mayo Clinic
FFS it takes a 5 second search. You were LITERALLY on the internet when you wrote that uninformed misinformation.
Richard Bernstein acquired type 1 diabetes (T1D) when he was about age 12 in about 1947. For 20 years, he followed the instructions prescribed by the American Diabetes Association, and he got a lot of serious health problems because of it.
So, he used his engineering degree and a blood glucose meter to figure out how to stabilize his blood glucose. He reversed all but 3 health problems. Those 3 problems had gone on so long that they had caused permanent damage.
Then, Bernstein became a medical doctor and specializes in treating T1D and type 2 diabetes. Dr. Bernstein is in his 80s and still practicing.
For eats and adviizes his patients to eat only 30 grams of carbs per day.
So, keto is good for type 1 diabetes, too.
drewbot78 well no, I’m on about my neighbours son who has type one and he has to have carbs but also be given insulin daily. And has to where a pump, I have watched this boy go hypo He cannot go into a ketogenic type diet as the ketones would kill him. And I know a lot of people who are type 2 who if following a low carb diet actually helps and can sustain it. So no it didn’t come from the internet it came from facts. Type 1 needs carbs but cannot produce insulin, you cannot cut it out it has to be weighed every carb every meal. Where did you get you info. A quick google search I bet
Your all stupid. I agree with the pancreas not making insulin on its own but you can’t cut out carbs on type 1 so STFU
And this boy next door with type one cannot go on Keto as ketones kill him and will send him into another coma. You throw the internet at me but I give you facts from real life when actually you all sound like a google search.
I’ve been living keto for 2 years. In the first 10 months I lost 85 pounds and reversed pre-diabetes along with scores of very positive changes, too many to list. I consume lest than 40 grams of carbs per day and I weight train 3-4 days per week. I’m 54 and have gained back 12 pounds of muscle mass so anyone who says you can’t physically exert yourself on LCHF diet is full of crap. The great thing is that it becomes effortless and you are only drawn to eating healthy natural foods.
My husband and I have been on low carb for 8wks and feel amazing. Body shape coming back. We lost 5kilos each. More energy no hunger and look healthy and younger.
What are you eating as it low carb? Any particular vegetables or any grains at all?
Did you find you could stick with it long-term Carole? I found that really difficult and couldn't keep it up, making one meal for myself and something else for the family, no low carb options on daytrips, not wanting to offend hosts by rejecting their cooking, few options in restaurants, feeling sick of salad and fish or salad and steak or just plain salad... Long-term I struggled with it but it definitely did work in terms of rapid weight loss and improved energy levels, fewer hunger pangs. My daughter likes to bake and cook fancy recipes and my husband eats bread daily. On my own it would have been easier.
Yes it does work. I'm down 70 pounds. Blood pressure is low. Joints stopped hurting. I feel the best I've felt in 15 years.
There's a link between carbs and arthritis
Congrats!!! Happy for you. 😀
@Marhana Ghazali it gets easy after a while. Once your body gets good at running on fat you feel great. It takes a couple months. Get plenty of salt and other electrolytes. Life changing.
@@imanebarakat5567 That's candida and a leaky gut.
All these people are claiming weight loss after following keto that means there must be something in the theory.after loosing weight and being insulin sensitive we may add some small portions of healthy carbohydrates but never refined sugar or starch.
I've lost 100 pounds on Keto and intermittent fasting.
Omar Carrington for how long?
Lost 120lbs and counting . Good on you brother! Keep it up!
Ryan Lamoreaux wow
losing wieght is biologically unhealthy. Just stop eating pizza and ice cream. (simple sugar and fat together).
And you will get atherosclerosis.
I'm 67 years old, and have been on HFLC for the past 8 years. Not only am I able to for the first time in my life have a normal weight, but I have actually grown younger to the extent that I can do a lot of things that were impossible when I was 45. The illusion that you cannot enjoy food without carbs is just that - an illusion. The sooner you convert the better.
I was fat as hell until I experimented with dropping all the added sugar. Now I'm shredded up and energetic. Also, I love high fat meat and veggies like never before. Proper Education and training are severely underrated 💯
Tell people you are on a high veg diet with some meat. I once told a doctor I was on a high fat diet and she was concerned for my health.
I explained to her it meant a diet that was almost 90% green vegetables and 10% eggs, fish, beef and nuts and her response was oh that sounds healthy. I have green vegetables 2/3 times a day.
@@bighands69 Proves that words matter.
I felt these words in my bones. I'm on this journey right now.... lost 18lbs since July 28th. Do you have Instagram?
@@bighands69 The diet you describe sounds like high carb, low fat, low protein. There's no way that is high fat if you're getting most of your nutrients from vegetables.
High fat diets comprise of 50-70% fat, 20% protein and 10% carbs.
@@judylloyd7901
Not high carb.
For every 100 grams of lattice there is only 3 grams of carbohydrates. So you could eat 100 grams of Lettuce and 40 grams of meat in a single meal and the fat and protein would be dominant for that meal.
You could have a ratio of 10 to 1 of green veg to meat and the majority of calories would come from the meat. A 100 gram steak would have 25g protein and 20g of fat.
vegetables
I’ve lost 150 lbs on keto!!! This life style saved my life 🙂
Mine too I lost a total of 100 pounds in 57 years young I love fasting after 14 hours of fasting your body starts to burn stored FAT and it's like a turbo charger of energy and it's free I love it
i love eggrolls and that crisspy wrap so can i eat it if i go on kito??? it maybe a silly question but im kinda addicted and as u were fat then u must know the struggle
I've heard though, in the long run; problems will eventually catch up. So, you might feel on top of the world now. But, in your later life... The WFPB lifestyle is ultimately the best. It's also what God intended for us in the beginning. As long as people do it right of course.
@@classyminds7483 no, you can't have those wraps. You can have the inside stuffing. Im a huge carb a day sugar addict, I did keto in 2019 and lost 18lbs. Unfortunately I allowed myself to get off the wagon in 2020 and gained a lot back. Trying again in 2021.
If you want to try keto, ease yourself into it. Allow maybe half of the carbs you'd normally eat, definitely cut out sugary sweet drinks and stick to water.

Lost 50+ pounds in 6 months with low carb. I feel better and I’m no longer on blood pressure meds.
you go girl
that's terrific, well done & congrats!
Truth! We have been lied to for over 60 years.
Did you eat the same amount of calories during the 6 months or did it change?
Cyberpunk I cut all carbs and stopped eating after 7pm. My calories per day were the same or more due to eating mostly meat and cheese.
Intermittent fasting and low carb has worked very well for me. Thank God for CZcams. It did what years of going to the medical establishment didn’t
I reduced the carbs for 1 week and already lost 1,5 kilo, plus I feel much less bloated. Keto is great. I don’t want to follow keto 100% but I’ll for sure continue eating much less carbs than I used to.
Why are you not doing full keto?
@@jorgevaladez9692 because full keto is moronic
@@shil6580 well I’ve known people with high glucose, high markers in their liver, doing keto and getting normal readings after a year doing keto.
@@shil6580 dude every person has circumstances. If you have diabetes, high LDL type B cholesterol, high trigliceride etc, you better off sticking to keto until your condition is improved. Else, you can do low carb or even medium carb if you do more high-intensity sport. Everyone is different
@@shil6580 what people don't realise is that when you cut carbs you lose glycogen and water, not really fat, fat loss comes later, and if not careful, muscle mass will be lost as well, that's when the rebound comes, i also lost 45 kilos without removibg or lowering carbs, caloric deficit is the key, people need to accept that
hey guys, I watched this video first time in winter 2016, was 136kg fat... started keto, eliminated 40 kg in like 5 months and was never hungry or craved nothing. changed my view on life. eliminated everything from headaches, colesterol, heart arythmia, bad sleep, snorring , headaches and resperatory issues.
Yay!
Awesome!
Imma need that workout routine that's insane progress
@@cbx0lastname81 just a keto diet, I actually worked out minimally
I have the opposite effect, I did keto with fasting and developed heart problems. Can you give some feedback
It’s amazing how I no longer crave sugar.
Dustin Wyatt I know. Now I don’t think about eating every couple hours.
Same here!
Pagrator Terso same here, if I eat icecream or cookies that are not homemade (keto, with little stevia and coconut and almond
flour) the sugar makes them really disgusting. Funny how one can change tastes.✌✌✌
Same here I rarely have anything high in sugar anymore. Just not appealing anymore.
Even vegetables taste sweet to me now. It's a very good side effect of keto
I’ve lost over 120 pounds two years ago and have kept it off. So there’s that.

@Bill Miller thanks a lot .. I've got those issues too... This gives me confidence.. thanks again Ben 😊
Carbs are cheap so changing hospital/school menus will have a lot of resistance because of budget. Very powerful people promote plant-based diets, and most food emporium menus' are filled or even based in high carb or Standard American Diet. I think this is the main reason why we still resistance to this approach: MONEY.
Eggs are cheap also!
They use a cheat code with grains. Fortification with folate, B12, etc. A grain-emphasized diet was guaranteed to lead to malnourishment in the past, such as folic acid deficiency leading to babies with neural tube defect. It is still is, those stuck with white rice might lack vitamin A. So they tried to GMO a cheat code and make golden rice.
Celluose-based is the real healthy part of kingdom Plantae but it's also less tasty and more expensive than cheap cereal.
The fact that low-carb diet are deeply retarded from its roots doesnt help either
If I went to hospital and ate their high carb food I'd go blind in one week.
I reversed my pcos symptoms on keto🙏I wanna cry from how happy I am
Me too! Had my miracle baby with it as well 💕
How many daily net carbs are you allowed in order to stay in the keto zone?

@@nhassanhassan5517 I was told I couldnt have children when I was 20. 10 years later by accident I had my son. I went through life thinking id never be a mother. Now here I am! I lost 80lbs on keto, and it kick started my ovulation without me being aware!
@@debbiechang5781 Everyone is different. Some people can only have roughly 20 net carbs. Others can consume higher. But the typical slandered is 20 net carbs and lower.
I died in 1987 and was resurrected in 2016. The Keto diet is wonderful.

wait a minute
Two types of keto
I've been on low carb high fat for 11 years. My hormones and blood work always surprises doctors when I tell them what I ear. People often say I look 30, when I'm 43 years old. Life's good when butter is plenty!
This really works. I'm 72 and have turned the whole thing around. I test blood sugar everyday and it's normal. I've also lost 45 lbs in 6 months. FYI: My grandmother ate fresh dairy, cream, butter, bacon, eggs, beef, chicken, cooked with hog lard, and was a country cook who served gravy with her meals. She lived to be 107 years of age and was never overweight. Crisco was made from cotton seed and highly refined, and showed up in the American diet about the same time as high fructose corn sweeteners. People started gaining weight. This was in the late 60's.
Same, my husband's farmer grandfather turns 104 next month and still lives independently in his own home. He spent his life consuming things like butter, eggs, milk, and bacon.
great comment
I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. Then I went on a keto diet and was stunned that I lost 10 lbs in 2 weeks. I no longer have the hunger crashes and spikes and can easily intermittent fast. My joints feel fluid too. I'm new to the ketogenic diet but I'm all in. Thought I would be craving sugar and high carb foods but I'm not and that's amazing to me.
@Hammers God bless you. Good luck.
After decades of telling us to eat lots of carbs, leading billions to obesity, why in the world would anybody listen to a nutritionist again?
all the hype is based on making profit by getting gullible fools to buy the latest product.
They told us to eat carbs because farmers/grain producers needed to earn a living - until the population became diabetic and started costing too much. It's all a money matter, never health and well-being matter.
Because if you look around, you will notice the current advice does not work. Eat less move more, high carb, low salt and plenty of seed oils is why obesity and diabetes are epidemic.
The man made a mistake learned from it and was man enough to own it when he did not need to and is now working hard to fix it
@@johansen8700 Marketing for carbs is everywhere. TV, magazines and even how grocery stores are set up puts processed carbs in clear view of shoppers. Ever here the slogan "breakfast is the most important meal of the day"? It was coined by cereal manufacturers to increase sales.
It absolutely works. I've lost 55lbs and kept it off for 3 years now. you just can't treat it like a diet and stop doing it, or you'll get the same results - you gain the weight back. its a lifestype change
Keto isn't a diet, it's a lifestyle. After youbeen on it for about one month or longer you realize how effective it is and how your hunger goes away.
Lmao no it’s a diet
@@taylormiller7014 Not for me, it the way I have been eating for over a year. Really enjoy the benefits, I just don't eat carbs and stay away from sugar, It's my lifestyle
Totally agree, I've switched to a Keto lifestyle now for about 3-4 years now. At this point I don't see changing much. But as I get older I will probably have to tweak a few things a bit.

Went Keto and Intermittent fasting.
I prefer to workout while 14 to 18 hours into my fast.
I was on 5 medications today I don't even take an aspirin at 195 lbs with 12% fat.
When building muscle I prefer to do 16/8 intermittent fasting with the odd OMAD.
My body prefers 20/4 or 22/2.
Dr. Berg, Dr. Berry, Dr. Fung & Thomas Delauer videos saved my life.
Sugar is the enemy not good fats, such as saturated, mono and polyunsaturated.
Healthy keto with a large salad rocks with my carbohydrates in my last meal.
Intermittent fasting makes life so easy, your gut health heals with good fermented vegetables like sauerkraut. Break your fast with easy protein like bone broths with coconut oil.
Good luck, the 1st month is tough especially stabilizing your electrolytes and minerals so read up on it, salt isn't bad for you.
After 4 to 6 weeks the hunger abates and it's like being reborn!
Good luck.

As Dr Fung stated, there’s no money in espousing this life style coz u stopped buying medicine that the large pharma is selling. Very good story. Keep up the good work 😊
I was eating the 'healthy Meditteranean diet' and my autoimmune condition was out of control. Inflammation stopped me from losing weight no matter how perfect my macros were. Two weeks in ketosis gave me incredible pain relief, my brain function improved and I lost 8 kilos without even thinking about it. Fat is my friend.

Did you loose 10 kg in a month of omad keto? Or water fast? Im on omad keto.
After a year of strict ketosis I’ve reverted back to baking sourdough bread and eating three or four slices a week. I think you’ll find that most people that eat keto for a long period are able to eat various carbs at various times but still mainly keep very low carb for good. And that’s the whole point get healthy and stay healthy. I never have the desire to snack and on the holidays I may indulge in some sweets. But instead of having two or three donuts I’ll have half a doughnut. Or a small piece of cake or half a cup of ice cream doesn’t matter, Life goes on. My family on both sides are diabetic. I was prediabetic I am not anymore. Had high blood pressure ( 150/90 ) not anymore ( 110/65 ). Lost 35 pounds and 5 inches off my waist. I had acid reflux for decades not anymore. Went from 6.1 H1C to 5.2. I’m 68 and I am not on any medications and don’t plan to be. Another added benefit, short term memory loss that started in my 50s has now reversed. Because I’ve been doing this so long my body has become fat adapted, which means it understands that fat and carbs can both be used as fuel. So if I eat a sandwich one day and go out of ketosis I can go right back in by the next day or two By limiting my carbs and increasing my fat. So if anyone thinks I reverted back to the way I was eating before you are most definitely wrong. I will eat this way the rest of my life And have my cake and keto too.
I agree, had a similar journey. Started out with strict keto, then gradually went up slightly in carbohydrates (with veggies, not garbage.) Weight dropped in the beginning, then a plateau for 2 years. So easy to manage. No more acid reflux, no more inflammation, better sleep, better energy level throughout the day. Occasionally eat a bit of hummus or beans, but don't cheat big because I don't feel the need to. Suits me fine and going to LC/HF with 5x wk exercise made me feel great. Don't plan to change it. Don't even look twice at sugary treats- plenty of keto options to satiate the sweet tooth.
Yes absolutely agree with everything you both say. Almost identical situation here. But no more. Keto is a way of life not a diet! Everyone should eat Keto. Sorry I’m very biased lol
I agree... but those of us who are carb addicts really need to be careful. But I totally agree, if you completely never allow yourself a treat, a trauma or an event can happen where you'll just think "i just don't care im gonna eat whatever" and that mindset can go from one cheat snack to a 1 month binge. For me, I have to be really strong. Im trying keto/low carb again this year. 2021 and hope to do better than I did in 2019 when I first started it. Im Hispanic who loves her flour tortillas, rice and beans. The other day I took a quarter piece of tortilla and a spoonful of rice and beans and that calmed my craving. Id like to lose 15 lbs, hope I can make it stick this time around.
But yeah, if you fall off the again for one day, just fast the next day and reboot the following day. Falling off doesn't mean you can't ever get back on.
@@texastea5686 I hear you! I love tortillas also, and I try to remind myself and think 'big picture' about my health when I get cravings. I think of my former 225 Triglyceride level, and I'm snapped back to reality (which results in being more steadfast.) I think about the impact of my making poor "small" choices and how those can add up, little by little, over a year. It boils down to making new habits, which honestly took me a long time to change. (Good read: Atomic Habits.) Over time, the new habits took over, and once the grip of tasty carbs and sugar left my body, it got easier. Make no mistake, it's a constant state of awareness, but does get easier over time. Just set your goals and play whatever mental games work for you to eat smarter. Not easy, but doable! Best of luck Texas, Tea!
@@karenrussell5509 One size does not suit all. I'm so annoyed & frustrated that I'm not seeing any of the benefits folk talk about. Have done IF for over 20 years, that suits me well. But on strict keto with daily exercise I'm bloody miserable. Keep hoping it will change. May have to up carbs from 15-20g to 30-40g see if there's an improvement. By upping it I mean with more veg. Wishing you well.
People talk about not getting enough nutrition by going low carb, as if bread, pasta, starches, sugar are in any way nutritious.
Is peanuts multigrain bread protein considered low carb
I am about 1,87m (6’2”) and was weighing something close to 120kg (270lbs) I started to do intermittent fasting and keto. I didn’t do it gradually, I simply cut all carbs out of my system right away and I had the worst first week of my life with my body craving all types of sugar and foods. After that week it didn’t take long for my body to adapt to fatty foods like eggs and avocado and eat once a day around 1200-1500… I shed 60lbs in less than 6 months and I don’t look or feel fat anymore. Now I slowly am putting some carbs into my diet, lots of vegetables and I’m exercising quite a bit. At 35 years of age, I’ve never felt this young!
They are still too focused on calories. And not focused enough on greens. Its about greens, protein, good fats, low carb, and no sugar.
It's not at all. It has to do with what your body needs, not what "scientists" TELL you you need. I get along perfectly well with NO greens, mostly protein and a a lot of animal fat.
I have lived in this body for seventy years now and NO doctor or nutritionist can tell me how to treat it: it KNOWS, so I just listen to what it's telling me.
@@SenhorTudo That's great. I crave veggies and raw onions and garlic. Gluten caused a severe asthma attack that put me in the ER with anaphylaxis. A restaurant told me my dish was gluten free. It was not. I barely tasted it and immediately my airway swelled. I haven't been back and have to make all meals at home, except for some Mexican food. I haven't eaten gluten in 14 years. Haven't had milk in longer, as it causes severe gut pain. Don't know why I have food allergies, but I was exposed to toxins while in the military.
@@twentyfourinvest I eat onions and garlic with no problems: my wife prepares all our meals, so I eat whatever meat dish she puts in front of me. She adds extra fat to my plate and I normally add a good helping of her home-made hot chilli sauce (dilates the blood vessels, thus obviating the need for blood thinners and helps to keep them clean) and some mustard. Tomatoes are also okay, but I eat them mostly cooked into the food, with a small salad, comprising lettuce, raw onion, tomato and cucumber, about six times a month. Otherwise, no other veg, no fruit and definitely no carbs of any kind. My body handles eggs, sea food, fish and poultry and we eat beef and chicken hearts, tongue and liver every week.
My wife recovered completely from crippling arthritis when I suggested she dump plant oils and margarine and replace them with butter and animal fats.
Keep going: you are listening to your body, and as you have discovered, it knows EXACTLY what you need!
@@SenhorTudo That sounds really good and very close to my diet. I like cooked tomatoes and good fats too, like coconut oil. I should eat more organ meats. My grandmother used to make chicken hearts and liver and I enjoyed those. I don't eat any sugar or desserts and very little fruit. I do like lemon water. I like a few nuts, not too much. Love black coffee. My vices are Vodka about twice a week, and I use cannabis daily, which really helps with my auto immune thyroid pain. I use no tobacco and no prescriptions, except for Armour Thyroid. Thank you for sharing and for your encouragement.
@@twentyfourinvest My wife uses coconut oil, but it gives me a massive asthma attack, so I steer clear of it. I use no nuts,no coffee an about five litres of red wine per year. I've smoked since I was 14, tried cannabis oil (a few different brands), but it makes me too dizzy, so I stopped trying to utilise it for back pain.
Organ meats are essential to maintain a balanced nutrition if you want to avoid taking supplements.
I had several people tell me that what I was doing was 'unhealthy' when I went low carb, but I managed to get off 2 medications because of it so...YEAH SO UNHEALTHY RIGHT?

Tim Noakes - how refreshing to hear " I apologize, I was wrong. " Anyone that can say that has my respect and admiration.
I started LCHF on 17th of June this year. 8kg lost ... The most important thing is that I don't feel hunger. Love this "diet".
I started last week, hopefully it will gain speed.
Have no idea when 17th of June is in relation to this comment
My boyfriend and I started a keto diet in March and we've both lost 40 pounds and have never felt better, definitely don't feel restricted in what we're eating. It feels natural.
the hardest part is figuring out what to make. so used to making stuff with carbs and sugar :+
Wow that's insane congrats ,for me i was always being frustrated because even though i'm on a calorie deficit i'm gaining weight or im not losing at all ,after some reasearch i know that its because my diet was all based on carbs and refined carbs 70%+
So im gonna switch to low carbs now hopping to see better result
@@phillipsmom6252 So far so good. But I suppose everyone's body is different and will react differently. To each their own!
You didn’t lose weight because of ‘kept” you lost weight because you cut calories without knowing it....
I’ve lost around 50 pounds too but on a high carb low fat diet I think it’s different from person to person I was 140 pounds but now I’m a normal weight ( 90 pounds)
I forgot to mention my Doctor ran a full battery of tests on me including an MRI and x-rays because of some issues I had been dealing with for years before I started Keto. After 6 months and some serious change to my body she ran all the tests again including another MRI and x-rays. No matter which test you look at I’m better than I was 20 years ago! My A1C, cholesterol, triglycerides, BMI, liver is excellent, kidney function is optimal, blood pressure is normal, no diabetes, no more COPD meds, no asthma, it’s like a brand new me!
I seriously haven’t felt this good in 20+ years lol. Waist went from 46” to 34”! Now I’m starting to shred and it’s awesome!
Intermittent fasting and low carb has worked very well for me. Thank God for CZcams
I've been keto for the past year. I've lost 44 pounds. It doesn't sound like a lot but it made a BIG difference in my life. I'm no longer prediabetic. I've had no trouble with maintaining my progress and I'm in a lazy keto category. Shrugs🤷♂️
I'll never see a dietitian again! In the 80s they wanted me to eat 8 pieces of bread a day! 4 fruits, 5 veggies one meat and 0ne milk! I was already on a low carb diet and had lost and I told them no way.and I quit the program.
Damn that is some pretty bad advice.
haha I remember as a teen I would routinely have 4 slices of wonderbread toast with cheez whiz.. lol
Registered dietician told me to eat low fat foods and drink diet soda containing aspartame when I was pregnant in 1986. Baby brains need quality fats in mom's diet and aspartame is a dangerous neurotoxin. So much for my faith in consensus "nutritional science."
The field of dietetics has completely changed, so have the guidelines. I am a new-grad dietitian and that food recommendation seems crazy to me. A lot of dietitians now don't try and put a lot of focus on having x amount of servings of x food group every day. There are things that can be worrying to us such as high levels of salt and alcohol but in general, we now like to promote a variety of foods that works for the individual.
Kudos to Professor Samaris for trying to get hospital trays for diabetics changed. As a nurse who used to work at the hospital, I always found the trays brought to diabetic patients were ridiculously similar to a regular food tray. It just doesn't make sense.
Realizing the link between insulin and cravings changed my life.
Who else got here randomly?
And found it interesting😮
It's all about balance. I've been doing a keto diet with intermittent fasting for 2 years now. Doesn't mean I don't enjoy a nice pasta when I'm out a couple of times a month
I certainly think carb cycling occasionally is massively beneficial for keto practitioners.
@Liz P. Are you stupid? What do you think is stored easier as FAT. FAT or carbs? Carbs have to through the process of de novo lipogenisis.
Liz P. I have never seen someone so wrong about everything than you.
@Liz P. please show me a study where calories and protein are equated in a low carb/high fat diet vs a high carb/low fat group and the low fat group lose more fat. There are none. Please go and read academic papers on this issue. Tell me if carbs store as fat why are tonnes of people who eat carbs lean as anything? What do you do on a keto diet when your weight loss stalls? You can't just cut out carbs because you're already not consuming them. Did you know protein has a large insulinomic effect as well? Also by your logic, if carbs make you fat then wouldn't you eventually die on keto if you did it the rest of your life as you'd just continually lose weight? Here's a hint, calories matter and carbs don't make you fat. Unless you're telling me you could eat 10,000 calories a day of fat and not get fat?
I have been living the Keto lifestyle for some time and will never go back to my old way of eating. I was always hungry and ate all the time. Now I eat twice a day. I only eat quality organic food now. I have lost 23 lbs. and look better than I have in 40 years. I really don't miss the carbs because how badly I felt eating my old foods. I no longer get headaches, my joints feel much better and I feel more relaxed and calmer. I can backpack longer and further. I just feel much better. My wife and some of my friends have also gone Keto as you can't argue with results. Its truly life changing.
It is a shame that it is incredibly difficult to eat at a restaurant if you are low carb/keto. -Chris

I am a physical education teacher and move quite a lot at work and playing tennis. However, my whole life I had problems with cravings. At the age of 60, I had problems losing weight. Interval fasting helped me some years ago, but in the last two years, this didn't have any effect.
I began with Keto when I reached the record of 94 kg. I am 1.82 tall and my weight in the past was something between 83 and 88. After a month I went down to 86.8. Cravings I usually don't have (it happened once when I didn't have lunch and did a lot of sport the whole day). I still have to get rid of 7 kilos, but I am confident.
I’m all for low carb diet. Lots of veggies, much less carb especially bread which spikes my sugar so bad. By eating mostly veggies, less carb, some good sources of protein I managed to lose 5 kgs which really surprised me because I didn’t feel deprived. Plus doing some walking after each meal is really a winner. And I’m keeping it this way.
you're starving yourself of nutrients.
I really like these two doctors who are able to own up to their mistakes.. and admit they were wrong.
Spot on ❤️
No point in going to a Dietician for personalized advice if they only offer up one way of eating, which will also keep you sick ie. Low Fat Diet. It was dieticians who tried to crucify Dr. Noakes for offering low carb advice on Twitter.
Agreed.
I've been on a sustainable low, carb routine since 2019. So far it's been working like a charm 👌 I do around 15 to 20 hours of endurance exercise (Kayaking, jogging, and weight lifting) per week and have achieved healthy yet sustainable BMI, and body fat percentage figures.
By the way, my testosterone level has constantly increased since 2019, when I measured it first. Now at 41, my testosterone level is in the 95 percentile of men in their early 20s in the normal range.
My recommendation is to: Listen carefully and closely to your body and its signals & Do NOT follow the majority, as they are often wrong about most issues.
Update (a month later):
for the first time in the past 10 years, the "visceral fat" index went as low as 4% (the healthy range is between 2-12%), while the overall body fat percentage remained in the athletic zone of 12.8%. The average visceral fat among the US population is 10-11%.
Good luck fellas 👊👊

I lost 60 pounds in 2 months doing keto and fasting, went from 240 to 180 ish, Kept going to the gym, had more energy, felt better, stronger, ect. The media has brainwashed us to think fat is bad. Sugar and carbs is the real problem
I started to know about low carb after my dad got diabetes 1 year ago. He is in south China rural area where people ate a lot of white rice and some vegetables. Because meat is expensive, people don't eat that much, but only occasionally. My parents are the same. I think this is how my dad got diabetes, and many other people in the village. Started to do some research to help my dad and found out low card diet. Recommended this to my dad, and now he is controlling his diabetes much better and cutting some medicines. It's hard to convince him since many doctors still insist that you have to eat rice or some kind of carbs. I myself been in low carb for 4 months now, lost some weight easily, feel really good. Also convinced my boyfriend to quit sugar and join me with the low carb. I think we should share our experience and spread this message to more people. I wish I know this earlier , then I would suggest my dad to cut some rice and sugary cookies and he probably won't get diabetes/high blood pressure.

I'm type 2 and been off the meds for 2 weeks and my numbers are going back to normal. Lesson here, although not everyone is the same, eat healthy, go low carbs and exercise often.
Carbs aren't our enemy. They are primary energy source as they fuel your everyday activities. I can't really imagine my life without carbs haha :D. The thing is, you don't have to be low on carbs to lose fat. It's all about consuming less calories than you spend in certain time period. Balanced diet that I'm still following works best for me (even though I found it online, on a website called Dietarizee). I also have cheat meals included. What more you could ask for :D Good luck!!
Some people can't do that. Their body just won't accept high amount of carbs...
I dont agree with you. I eat lots of carbs and my sugar level gets way up.
What works for you may not work for someone else. Just like explained in the video, carbs are a lot like dairy in the sense that some people process them well, and some don’t. This makes sense if you think that most sources of carbs are processed foods or grains that did not exist in the wild before domestication by early farmers, meaning that some cultures didn’t really have access to these until later in our evolutionary path. That explains why dairy, gluten and carbs are a problem for some people more than others.
Then again, not everyone needs to follow the same diet to be healthy, but trying a low carb diet should be encouraged for anyone who suffers from obesity, diabetes, ibm, etc.
Speaking for myself, I have struggled with digestive problems my entire life and have been overweight for the past 10 years, but recently lost 25kg through intermitent fasting and low carb diet, my digestive problems disappeared and I feel so much better in general

Not for me. I have insulin restistance.
I do more of a paleo style diet . Keeping my carbs low just not as low as I would on Keto and I still see benifits .
I do supplement B12 but if you eat beef, pork ,chicken etc and you don't raise the animals yourself and slaughter them yourself then you are eating the same B12 as the farm feed is supplemented , and there isn't any studies that I can find on weather or not wild caught animals are deficient or not because cobalamin can last in the body for as long as 3 years and hunters rarely take down old animals...

easiest way to cut carbs is to avoid them altogether ;d
Some berries and cherries? Are lower carb....just
Not in the astounding amounts I ate all thru summer lol
I agree. Im starting keto today and its so linited im scared I'll fail. Im pretty small still i need to lose about 15 pounds. I lost it before by cutting out bread, pasta, and refined sugars. I still ate fruit and id choose between rice or a potato each day. I felt amazing.

This is a fact I've personally experienced; you believe whatever you want.
I always wondered why breads was always more important than vegetables in the pyramid..? I ate bread anyway but I always thought it was weird since vegetables are the least processed thing we could possibly eat.
I never thought about it, till now 🤔😒
Veggies are definitely processed. Pesticides. GMO. Etc etc.
David Vulich organic or grow your own genius
OMG Robert you are so right, I never though about it like that. Oh the lies we have been told
Because pyramid food was made from Department of Agriculture US not from Health board. This department is heavily lobby by grain associate like wheat and corn in US. Thats why High Fructose Corn Syrup which literally sugar poison that spike insulin are available in almost all processed food in US. Not to mention heavy subsidy for farmer to grow corn and wheat not rear cow or lamb or sheep. Not to mention the GMO seeds that only can be used once from Monsanto. A corrupt company.
High fructose corn syrup is too sweet and causing insulin sensitivity in the long term. Avoid it at all cost.
Incredible. My mother always gave us 2 boiled eggs, a glass of milk and optional bread for breakfast very seldom she gave us processed cereal (the one she might have bought from time to time was corn flakes without sugar added).

Eggs and milk are not good combination of food
I've done low carb for 15 months and I've lost 104lb, I average around 20g to 25g of carbs a day.
Have u ever had cheat days? Like heavy carbs. Doughnuts, pizza and stuff
It's a sugar/carb/misinformation crisis in America since the 1977 government- endorsed food pyramid recommending 6 carbo loaded meals a day. Cut carbs to keep your "fat storage hormone" (Insulin) low. Another easy technique is to skip breakfast. (Intermittent fasting). I'm in my 50s and lost 65 pounds in 6 months and came off all my medications (for high blood pressure, cholesterol, gout) using those easy techniques. It does require some discipline but results come quickly. In the end, it's not really the public's fault. We have been lied to since the 1950s about nutrition. Look up Dr. Ancel Keys flawed data. Or watch "Big, fat, surprise" which explains it much better. You will be shocked and angry at what the government and Big Pharma have in store for you...cancer and diabetes.

Foia gras has been a prized delicacy forever, and it comes from a goose's a fatty liver. The goose is force-fed grain!

@@serimanulusoy6261 if you want to lose weight you should still watch calories on keto, but pretty much you can eat as much fat. What happens is that eating a fatty rich meal will make you feel full for hours, so some people on keto generally only eat one meal a day, 2 if they are hungry. If you want more info, CZcams the following people:
Dr. Ken Berry
Dr. Jason Fung
Dr. Eric Berg
Keto Connect (they're a couple who live a strict keto lifestyle)
Well we'll see. I hope you can stick to that diet for the rest of your life. I have big doubts. But wishing you the best.
@Mihai Balint people still looks pretty bloated on carb diet almost on a starving diet (lack of proteins, pretty cheap diet, calories from cheap sugar and wheat).
Dr Atkins was one of my heroes. Wish he was here today to see low carb going mainstream
I know, right. Dr. Atkins would not have agreed with Dr. Jason Fung that there are actually “good” carbs (unrefined carbs). Dr. Atkins believed a carb is a carb, all are bad & must be avoided or at least minimized in our diet in order to lose weight. Dr. Atkins kept everything simple in his eating plan. Hard core low carb was 20g or less, while 30-40g was low enough for consistent weight loss. He was the best!❤
I lost 70+lbs in a series of months, felt amazing! Blood pressure normalized, energy through the roof, not depressed at all. The biggest mistake was letting the holidays get to me but I never put the weight back on. Getting back to it though for the energy and anti-depression benefits.
I now eat a high fat, low carb, minimal sugar, and zero veg oil diet. This is after my high sugar, carb, grain and processed food diet led to a hemmorhagic stroke. I changed soon after leaving the hospital after a one week stay. Gone: sleep apnea, fatty liver, illness of any sort, joint aches, frequent gas, low energy, frequent mood swings, eczema, and more. I am as healthy as I have ever been in my life.
Fact - I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism about 4 years ago, after a blood test. At the time, my weight had gone up to 92kgs (over 200lbs) I tried different eating methods, without success, until someone introduced me to Keto late last year. From Nov to April 2020 I cut out as much Hi carb foods as much as possible, rice, lollies, noddles, root veges, high sugar soft drinks, and by April my weight had dropped down to below 85kgs, while still eating as much protein as possible, any meat mainly chicken and pork was still consumed. I have now stabilised at about 85kgs and still enjoy eating meat and non root veges, but have re-introduced myself to carbs within moderation. I didn't have to increase my exercise work rate, and I hate sugar, its poison.
If you aren't careful about the protein intake (ie. meats), it will trigger gluconeogenesis in your liver which will turn the excess protein into sugar. To keep in the state of ketosis 80% of the energy (ie. calories) must come from fats and 15% from protein.
@@quelorepario I'm lazy keto, so will binge on the odd occasion on carbs.
Absolutely true. I have dropped 80 pounds and LOADS of inches when I changed my diet 2 1/2 years ago❤️SC Nurse
Along with members of my family I have done low carb eating with some intermittent fasting I have lost 35 pounds in about 7 months and all of my family have now lost lots of weight just by following this way of eating and we know now fat doesn't make you fat and also cut out seed oils
This video serves as a reminder to stay out of hospitals. I've been doing LCHF for 4 months, and I'll never go back to that kind of food.
Lost 21 kg in one year of low carb high fat and still continue. Never ate so good - and never felt so good!
Lost 38Kg's in 6 months eating non-refined, non-processed carbohydrates at all three meals. Including 2 fruits a day. Carbs aren't the issue, its processed food and sugar.
@@DLeRoux Carbs=sugar
@@DLeRoux if you are insulin resistant, carbs are a problem and should be eliminated. you dont speak for everyone based on your own experience.
This is great information
Keto diet has been the best life changing choice I’ve ever made! People need to research it and please try it!
I’m type 1 diabetic and a low carb plant based diet has made my blood sugar levels a hell of a lot more stable than they had been when I had a lot of carbs in my diet
What you eat in that diet
What the hell do you eat on a LOW CARB PLANT BASED diet??? Plants ARE CARBS! Duh! 😮 Get real.
