      Hi, thanks for your extremely informative videos! I'm still struggling with getting the information about starches (bad)/ resistant starches (good?) and how to calculate them in the daily intake. Do you have the info on which is which as it is not written on packages? For instance are legumes like chickpeas allowed or not? I've read as well you could eat cold potatoes but I am extremely suspicious!! 😀 Apologies if you have been through this already, I don't see it in your list. If so could you give the link? Thanks! ☺

      @Baron Bar Did you call yourself a cell biologist who writes reviews with peer-reviewed literature? I don’t think so. If you are, you must be working for pharmaceutical companies or your “professional work” is funded by drug companies. I don’t know you but from observing your comments, you are a sloppy careless untrustworthy reader as you totally missed his name for someone else. His last name is Ekberg not Elberg. As a cell biologist you should pay more attention to details or you should review your comments before posting it. After all, you are only accepting “peer-reviewed” materials! Just learn to spell his name correctly next time and save your peer-reviewed comments for your pharmaceutical friends!

    Dr Sten, thank you! At 50+ I was chubby with hefty “love handles” and thought, “oh well, that’s life, this is my body type and there’s nothing I can really do to change that.” I had heard diets don’t work and had little time or patience to exercise… then I started intermittent fasting 16/8 and dropped about 6 pounds in a month. In 6 months I lost 30 lbs and reached my weight goal while feeling much better. I have cut way back on carbs and try to walk for about an hour in the morning and evening to hit a nice balance. This is a way of life…not a diet and has made a huge +++ effect on my health!

      He said, while comparing low cal with fasting, that if you reduce your calorie from 2000 to 1,500 you’ll lower your BMR, but when fasting, you can eat 2000 every other day, so 1000 calorie per day, and you won’t reduce your BMR! How does that make any sense! Reducing your calorie even less will preserve your BMR?!

    • @marinap69
      @marinap69 Před rokem +10

      That’s because when you don’t have a sufficient meal (it’s lower in calories, and your body doesn’t feel satisfied with it), your body will try to retain as many calories as it can by slowing down your metabolism- that’s when you eat three times a day but each time with insufficient calories.
      On the other hand, when if you eat once a day, but it’s a full meal which gives you a sense of satiety, your body relaxes and does not feel the need to reduce your metabolism. Our body knows in this case that when the next meal comes there will be plenty of good nutritional food and it will be enough to “make it happy”, to satisfy its needs, and therefore there is no need to conserve the calories, or to store the fat.

    Yours have been the clearest to understand videos I have watched about the wholeness of the body and how it works. I want to watch them all! Gives me more incentive!! I had a terrible reaction to the Covid last year. Lost my ability to walk. No doctors seem to help so I went on line and discovered first, KETO. BTW I am 75 and have always been active. Started adding some supplements in January. I have lost 20 lbs. but have hit a plateau. This lesson, as I call them, has helped me to see what I need to do. I have regained my walking ability, but it has it has taken 6 months. Watching your lessons and a few other programs similar to yours, I realized that I had been eating wrong for a very long time, and thought it was normal. Loved bread and sugars. I am off bread (grains), sugar, processed and fast foods. This has not come from mainstream Doctors, but from watching Doctors who really look at the cause and not just the symptoms. I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart, I was cleared from a cancer scare, my IBS D has vanished, blood sugar dropped and my energy has returned in a way that I had not expected. Still have some issue with kidney and liver but believe that to will get better.

    I have been really enjoying your videos. I would love to see a video on foods to eat after a longer fast. I usually do OMAD fasting but also mix it up with longer fasts. Coming of these longer fasts in the right way is more important than the shorter fasts, so would love to hear what you have to say about the best way of doing that.
    Also would love to look at the math of calories to grams (or pounds for the Americans). I know there are a lot of variables but some guidance on it would be good.

    • @ednalansdowne232
      @ednalansdowne232 Před rokem +3

      Here is some basic info on food calories. First, the numbers typically tabulated are derived from what is called a bomb calorimeter. The food (fuel) is literally burned in a closed system with sufficient oxygen to complete combustion, and the heat produced is captured and measured, usually by how much of a temperature rise occurs in the calorimeter water bath, with a defined amount of water. This testing established the fact that proteins and carbohydrates have 4 calories of heat value per gram, fat has 9 calories per gram, and alcohol has 7 calories per gram. These are for dry weights. Now, there are two things to take into account. Much of what you eat is not 'dry'. A pound (454 grams) of bread does not have 1 pound of carbohydrates, typical meats similarly are not 100% protein. Boneless, skinless chicken for example is typically just under 20% protein. Butter has some water and protein in it so it is not 100% fat, however most oils are essentially 100% fat. The second thing is that your body necessarily access all of the calories in the food. You will not digest all of the fiber for example, or you may have malabsorption problems.
      The amount of usable calories that you need depends on factors such as how active you are and how high your metabolic rate is. These are also influenced by your body mass, what the temperature and humidity of your surroundings are, how much clothing you wear, etc. A pound of body fat has the energy equivalent of 3500 calories. That is approximately the calorie requirement of two days needs for a sedentary person.

    I found that when fasting, always listen to your body. Hunger is usually the worst around your meal times. Hunger will pass. If your body is hurting or feeling "wrong" end your fast and try again. You have to be mentally prepared to fast, and I have poor results if I suddenly decide I am going to fast rather than planing to begin a fast at a certain time. Emotional stress is the worst for me.

    Love your videos and learning a lot. But still very confused about the calorie thing. How much is too much and how much is not enough? Is the limit the number of calories you burn every day?

    I luv how you break down the nutrients... that is very informative. I am new on veto, started 3 weeks ago and already lost nearly 10lbs. I am not obese but I am 25 lbs over my regular weight LOL. I think I am on track and doing / feeling great so far. You're very much appreciated :) I should've watched your channel long ago
