Disagree, just like alcohol, sometimes willpower isn't enough to simply overcome. If you work and they're constantly bringing pizza, pasteries, cakes, donuts every day, it's very hard to not want it every day. and sure 99/100 days you can say no, but eventually exposure can win. If you're using all your willpower to say no to certain things, then you will loose will power else where. Will power is a finite resource. willpower is connected to a limited reserve of mental energy, and once we run out of that energy, we're more likely to lose self-control.
I'm 35, and have been severely depressed and suicidal since I was 8 years old. Bunch of different meds and different Psychs and Dr's. I am currently a service technician so I am always on the road and the temptation of stopping at places to stop and grab something is incredible. I was drinking 3-4 Nos's a day and eating garbage for 2 years straight. I got to a point I said enough and cut out the sugars and carbs and have not looked back since. I have been doing Keto for about 9 months now and I can say it single handedly changed my life. First time I can remember not feeling like death was a great option. And I'm also proud to say I have been completely med free for 2 months (after carefully weaning myself off for the last 2 months or so prior). I feel great!
ex-sandwich lover right on man! Keto has helped me also doc tried to put me on anti depressant they made me worse i made them check testosterone and mine was low and had excessive prolactin in my system that was suppressing my testosterone which killed my energy and was stagnating any progress in gym
I did OMAD for a month but it wasn't Keto. I would just eat a big 900 calorie burrito for my meal and I gained a bunch of weight even though I was eating less than 1000 calories a day. Then I switched over to doing Ketogenic OMAD and lost 15 pounds.
@@stefanul I'm a type 1 diabetic so I see how much insulin the body needs to process things. Fruit and oats would for sure put you over the limit. For true keto it's very low like 20-30 grams of carbs a day. I think staying low around 60 keep the insulin levels low but you may not be in ketosis.
@@YogawithAliBeale as an update, right not i barely even eat vegetables. I treat them as a supplement. I gulp a lot of fat and protein. I find my self carving a spoonful of butter or coconut oil and shoving it into my mouth and I'm like: "isn't that supposed to be gross?"
At 60 years old, I lost weight from 250 pounds down to 180 pounds and 12 inches off my waistline in 6 months with keto and one hour per day casual walking. I also found the calmness with Stoic principles of Epictetus and Marcus Aurelius. I don't fight problems with anger; I allow problems to flow around me like water flows around rocks in the river, looking for solutions instead of complaints. *"Discipline is the bridge between goals and accomplishments." -- Jim Rohn*
Did you ask her why? Yeah, I thought so. Stupid ppl believe stupid things. Thanks for sharing your “wisdom” and that of your grandmother... *pepehands*
You took it literally guys...If you eat bread mostly, you are unable mentally earn better money to buy something else (more expensive). It’s like having expensive car, but no money to maintain that! You just try to make false impression to people that you have money...
I have been Keto for 2 weeks and already noticing a change mentally. I used to be so sluggish in the morning and some mornings I wouldn't even get out of bed to wake my kids up for school. Now I'm awake at 4:40 every morning and I get up to get my husband and kids off to work and school. I have also begun cleaning and organizing like crazy, and have been enjoying the energy! I love this new way of living and I wish I would've discovered it sooner.
@@XAE_A_Xii I was going to write something similar. I do intermittent fasting, either 16:8 or 18:6 as well as low carb. Plus I walk twice a day most days. I get up every day feeling tired, life's an effort at times. Maybe some are slower to feel the benefits. Good luck with it.
@@lynnettemurphy8243 i actually started to feel tired during the day and waking up is hard as always. i am second month into the keto diet. good luck to us
@@lynnettemurphy8243 agreed only 2 days on keto n it messed up my metabolism use to be thin now keep gaining weight during n after keto diets it messed up my mental health and relationship with food overall now I’ve completely given up on everything for past years. Keto is a fad diet like the rest. And fat is last resort source for your body your body needs carbs if it can’t burn carbs it burns protein then fat as last resort
@@healingandgrowth-infp4677 Without being judgmental to you, why does your own personal (extremely short) experience lead you to belittle a diet that has huge results behind it? I do sympathize with your situation but have to suggest that perhaps there is something you're eating or doing,might be incorrect or clashing with the diet. I am no fan of "Keto" true believers (I struggle with any "true believers") but after 8 weeks of a Keto/paleo diet with intermittent fasting (not eating after dinner till 1pm) as per the youtube videos of Dr Stan Ekberg, I have lost 9 Kgs and am slimmer than I have been in 12+ years. However, as a motocross racer (MX) I have struggled with energy until about 8 weeks in when suddenly my mind cleared and I have heaps of energy. I'm still to figure out how to store or create the energy required for high intensity MX racing but that will come after I get to my goal weight (a loss of around 17 Kg's). Insulin resistance is a big thing, if you look into that it might help you work out how and why your work so far hasn't achieved what you wanted. Anyway, best of luck. I can say that it really has worked for me and another work colleague who has lost 14 Kg's in about 12 weeks. All without any excercise.
It's a way of life for me. I have dropped four medications and my doctor is very happy with me. She did Keto and told me about it. She wants her people under her care to heal. Thank you for sharing.
I suffered really badly with Trigeminal Neuralgia for almost 9 years, tried everything and nothing worked, then found research on the effectiveness of Keto on Epilepsy and tried it out immediately... All symptoms went into remission within a couple of days and have not returned since and thats over 3 years now...
Keto has helped me so much with depression, anxiety, overall mental clairty & health. Losing weight is just a side effect. Ive only lost 10lbs in 5 months, i do it more for the energy, how good i feel, and my mental health.
can you elaborate more on how it helped with anxiety? is it purely stabilized insulin levels or are you finding its that and additional factors from being in ketosis?
@@jprince3 not too sure. More stable blood sugars play a role im sure. Brain fog has gone away so its possible some people's brain may run better on ketoned than glucose.
@@Davidthemarathoner if you were educated on the subject, you would know there are keto vegetarians. Although I don't buy into meat is bad. Meat has been a food source of ours for ages, processed carbohydrates however have not and chronic diseases and obesity went up along with the consumption of processed carbohydrates and increased frequency of eating.
People will only change when they WANT to change! You can’t force anyone to change; it has to come internally with each person. All I do is try and become an example for folks who observe my excellent health and lifestyle. If they ask, the door is now open...
Am I able to implement keto into my fasting I’m currently doing IF for 18:6 and have lost 20 pounds but am at a plateau my diet is clean and I’m hitting the gym everyday maybe keto will help change my weight loss?
Did you previously try IF for weight loss? I’m doing that at the moment mainly low carb but not strict. I’m going to try a month of keto with the fasting and see if that speeds things up
I started the Keto diet 6 months ago, no grains, my diabetes is going into remission. the blood tests and my body show it. My pulse rate went from 40 bpm to 55 bpm, I am at my 'fighting weight'. My stool is now 'normal' no constipation no lose stool. it's literally like my body is coming back to life.
I started Keto nearly a year ago and my chronic insomnia and migraines are gone. Also the depression and anxiety. I have never felt so good or this healthy. It's amazing and just wish I had known about keto 30 years ago!! I'm grateful
Cher Bear, I hear alot of people say that keto cured their depression, anxiety, insomnia and migraines. I think I know why. It's because those are all symptoms of a low B12 and eating all the meat on the keto diet restored their B12 levels. Not only did you cure those things, you also look great with a slim beautiful face.
I started keto+Omad and am on week 2. I look and feel soo much better. I'm sleeping better and more productive with lots of energy. I highly reccomend keto to anyone!
Since I started the KETO diet with intermittent fasting I have lost 100 lbs from 280 to 180. I have almost a flat stomach at 63 years old. I find myself a much calmer person drive slower without road rage. I was looking for weight loss but found much more than that. Listen to this and believe, you too can benefit from this!
I find it fascinating how so many are sharing their life changing results from the effects of Keto. I personally was on the fence but decided to give it a try. Since I started I have lost over 12lbs and I was overly obese I was maybe 20lbs overweight. The one interesting thing I did notice was how when I jogged my sciatica no longer flared. Then if I decided to cheat and go carb crazy that day my sciatica would kill me. When I went back on Keto no pain. So I assume it’s due to inflammation but whatever it is what I feel is real.
@@GaryHighFruit Doesn't take junk carbs to do it. For someone that sees a transformation the form of carb doesn't matter nearly as much as the dose. And fat is the largest macronutrient on a Keto diet. It is the primary nutrient, not protein.
@@keithsmith3118 But junk food IS mostly what creates problems like diabetes, overweight etc because 1. sugar enters the blood too fast 2. and it cant get out because the fat in junk food(which people forget about) blocks insulin receptor cells from taking sugar out of the blood. Another thing: junk food doesn't have the nutrients needed for the body to work properly. This is why low-fat/grain/fruit-based diets work so well.
@@GaryHighFruit Not entirely true but definitely a path in the wrong direction. Metabolic dysfunction has more causes than just malnourishment through junk food.
I was on a whole foods plant based HIGH CARB diet for about five years because I thought it would prevent heart disease. Instead, I gained 40 pounds, had to start taking PPI's for acid reflux and EoE, and eventually started taking duloxetine for anxiety. About 6 months ago, I decided to make a change. I ditched the grains, started eating more animal proteins, and ate more sweet potatoes instead of white or red potatoes. My acid reflux went away, I got off all medications, and my stomach began slowly healing itself. I feel a little better every day. No weight loss yet, but I'm still healing!
I have a very similar story, but it came after I suffered a stomach ulcer after a very stressful semester of law school. Like you, I was told that a "whole, natural" diet of vegetables and whole grains was the answer. But, my acid reflux persisted. I had days where my heartburn was so bad that I thought I was having a heart attack. I chalked it up to anxiety and it being a mental issue. However, one day I randomly stumbled upon a video by Dr. Ken Berry where he said that if you eliminate carbs, your acid reflux goes away. Figuring I had nothing left to lose, I went down from 300 carbs a day to about 90-130 carbs a day. After 10 days, my acid reflux literally went away. The center of my chest hasn't hurt one time either. It's insane how we can live so long thinking we're bound to a miserable fate, and then one day randomly we find out that everything can be changed. That's literally what happened to me!
A lot of the same. High carb, low fat for heart disease. 5 years. My body went from muscular to smooth. Ended up in the GI docs office. Changing my beliefs on ketones, cholesterol, and dietary fat was challenging as heck for me. 😊
@@adamthewoodworker2571 Yup, I've looked into Dr. Berry as well. He saw a lot of patients struggling to find health even though they were all eating according to the AHA guidelines and switched to a carnivore diet to see much better results. For me, it was Dr. Cate Shanahan and Dr. Mark Hyman. It was ditching the vegetable oils, the sugars, eating too many fruits, and upping my non starchy vegetables. It was eating more ferments and pressure raised organic eggs and even sugar free bacon! I've been eating this way now for over a year and I'll never go back to that high carb shit. It did nothing but wreck me.
@@wheelofcheese100 Oh yeah, I hear ya there. When I was all plant based low fat, my cholesterol was super low. About 129, HDL 39 LDL 79. I thought that was really good and I'd never get a heart attack. But what people don't realize it's cholesterol is needed for so many things in the body, especially hormones. My testosterone was so low it was barely on the chart. I was super tired all the time, the fat around my stomach refused to budge no matter how hard I worked out, and my anxiety was horrible. I'm anxious to see how my numbers change after a few years of eating a more traditional human diet. But no, as long as your body is properly burning fat for energy and your HDL is high, you have no reason to fear cholesterol.
I healed my carpal tunnel on Keto. I used to get shots in my wrist and had to wear wrist braces so my hands wouldn't get numb at work. Since switching to Keto and IF, my inflammatory issues are non-existent. Oh, and I lost 30 lbs btw.
I was first diagnosed with Osteoarthritis, then I developed CTS as a complication. I eat lots of raw turmeric root to control the inflammation. Since I started Keto and IF my symptoms are reduced 90%. It certainly works . I'm losing weight too. There's a long way to go but I will reach my goal because I've found a way that works.
@@optimismrules2512 Yeah probably, im sure cutting out the sugar and processed foods, eating more holistic was a big part of it. But I wouldn't have done that if I hadn't switched to keto. The inflammation was the gone, and my metabolism returned to the level of being a teenager again.
I have been following keto diet for the last 1.5 years. I remember how weak I used to feel before I started keto. I couldn't even go for 15 minute walk that I would be out of breath. Now everyday I have to go for walk for an hour. Or else I actually start feeling weak. This diet has made me more energetic and I love how I feel mentally. I am more focused and can learn new things with full attention. Now my purpose is to create more awareness about keto diet to my friends and family because I want to take them on this amazing journey that I have embarked on.
I have been on keto for over a year. I started it because I read that I had to stay away from sugar and carbs for my rheumatoid arthritis. My doctor said it wasn’t true, but, I was on it 2 months already and was off one of my pills. I decided to stay on it and have lost over 50 lbs. and off all my medication for rheumatoid arthritis. I am very happy and have no arthritis pain in my body. I am very happy with the recipes and will always eat this way. Shockingly I do not miss pasta, sweets and ice cream. I have all substitutes that are just as good. I am 73 and feel the best I ever did.
I lost 44 lbs in 5.5 weeks with keto, intermittent fasting, watching my macros, and exercising. I even took in more protein than commonly suggested, and still did that well. Its changed my life.
That's great. I lost 70 lbs in 4 months, but I wasn't fasting or exercising. I've put back on half of that. Struggling, but I know it's possible. David Goggins lost 100 lbs in 3 months if I'm correct.

U can have some carbs on keto too. Low glycemic carbs like quinoa and buckwheat will not spike blood sugar so high to kick tou out of ketosis. There are others

Click-bait titles, bad/loud electronic music, and computerized voice-overs are all the rage on YT today. Thankfully, this video only commits only one of these abominations.
Keto works and actually sways you away from junky food choices. I was having stomach aches and nausea. feel better already only after 5 days of eating a more keto lifestyle
Keto Diet is simply eating natural food the way it was intended by nature, and to follow the natural cycles of the body instead of forcing it into artificial schedules. I am lucky I've been doing this all my life without even realizing it. I love natural food and Ive usually just eaten once a day. I'm 40 years old and everyone thinks I'm in my twenties.
This is true. It is a simple diet that people out there argue with because they eat carbs and want to continue overloading on carbs! This is not a rocket science type of thing. People hear the words HIGH FAT and shit a brick. Sugar is the problem. Science has already debunked the Fat is bad idea. Big food and big pharma are killing people, even though there are lives saved by medications, but that's not the point.
My mom was diagnosed with dementia and shortly after put on hospice. Hcf, ckd, diabetic etc the wjole 9 yards. I put her on the keto diet and she graduated hospice was doing well for 3 yrs and now back on hospice but is still doing good and may graduate again soon. So they say her heart, brain, kidneys etc are getting stronger. This is all in time frame from 2015-now end of 2018.
Three months of keto and intermittent and prolonged fasting and I am no longer a type two diabetic. No more inflammation and no more neuropathy! Feeling coming back to my feet
I've been doing keto for 2 and 1/2 years. I started because I wanted to lose a little weight but I've stuck with it and intend to stick with it for the rest of my life because I've never felt better. I feel physically and mentally energetic, clear, and alive in a way that I haven't before. I fell off the wagon twice for about a month or two and went back to eating regular food and felt foggy, lethargic, anxious and bloated. I realized I could never go back to that full time again. It's keto for life for me. It's just a no-brainer I feel so amazing and I eat such delicious food it's not a hard diet to stick to now that how to cook and eat this way has become second nature.
I've been on the keto diet for about a month and I've been trying to get into the rhythm of things. I tried HyperKeto and I'm happy to report that it helped me lose 15 pounds and feel great!
As a former meth head, IV, hopelessly addicted. A Keto diet really helped my brain calm down and get on top of those bad feedback loops in my mind. I highly recommend it to anyone dealing with the same kinda struggle.
The brain is mostly fat so building a brain with a fat based diet makes sense. EFAs lines the myelin sheath. When you get holes in it MS happens. Other mental illnesses can be helped with EFAs. Omega 6 is more important than omega 3. A teaspoon or 2 of cold pressed sunflower tastes great and is loaded with omega 6. Flax oil for omega 3, about 1/2 tsp. Stay away from processed oils and fish oil.
Two weeks into Keto: Diminished my psoriasis on my face, it's almost gone. I've had it for almost a year. I rarely have acid reflux after I eat meals, which was a common occurrence for me. No more cravings throughout the day, eating only 2 meals. Waking up a lot more early everyday, less needed naps throughout the day. Much more energry. My chess game has gotten better lol. I'm still experiencing a bit of the Keto flu every now and then but the pros are outweighing the cons by far. This has changed my life, I'm so glad I found out about how our overloaded sugar diet is destroying us! It's an unforgivable sin that othe food industries have duped us to eat the way they want us to. I plan to inform people around me as much as possible.
I have done Keto for three years. Lost 18kg My blood sugars HbA1c now down to 4.7 from 5.8 Blood pressure down 10 below 120/70 CRP =0.1 My Trigs very Low, my HDL HIGH My blood work has never been so healthy in my life, and Im 61
This guy is f**k'n awesome. I admire how humbly and lovingly he does his excellent work. I loved hearing him share his knowledge, and also hearing him speak of his shaky beginnings, how he had to overcome a fear of public speaking, and about the importance of uncompromising belief as a first step on the path towards anything. I love this guy. Great guest.
Best thing for me is a keto / carnivore diet. Sooo many issues were resolved by being strict with carbs. I am addicted to carbs and I understand even a little turns me into a non stop eating machine.
Oh my goodness... I don't have sufficient words to express how much this interview blessed me!!! From those of us caring for loved ones suffering from Alzheimer's...Thank you for providing HOPE.❤
Living forever...I have no desire to live forever or even to 100 which will likely be no problem. Living to a very old age may be possible health-wise, but it psychologically takes a toll to the point where you've just had enough. I want to be healthy though for as long as I live, or at least until the end, and then die quickly.
I actually thought this video was gonna bash the keto diet after reading the title. Not that I would've believed it? I did the keto diet for a really short time,short because of financial constraints? But even with that short time? I felt a big difference all around
This is exactly what has been going on in my 80 year old body these past few years. Someone should study me. Intuitively by paying attention to my body I’ve been driven to a keto / carnivor lifestyle. No formal testing, just feedback from my body. My brain, attitudes body have all responded so well.
I went keto 2 years ago after two arteries on my heart closed up , got two stents . Now at 70 yrs. old my brain fog has cleared I am off all medications , don't get tired (out of breath) regularly ride 16 miles on old 3 speed bike in 80 + degrees , feel great .New lease on life in my book .

Hi Robert! Your comment has me completely fascinated! I know someone who has had three stents put in and the doctor said she will have to be on blood thinners for the rest of her life she must take eight or nine medication and they have her convinced she’ll have to take them forever. She is on keto and I’m hoping that one day she too will be able to get off all those medication’s. The slightest tap on her body produces huge bruising and she’s covered in black and blues all the time. I know she won’t believe it but I’m gonna keep your message here and pray that she gets off all her medication and that you’re doing well too! I truly hope you get a chance to read this and thank you very much for your comment, it’s giving me some hope!

I am over 65 and could not lose weight until I tried the Keto Diet. I have lost 22 pounds so far and it is wonderful to finally fit comfortably in my clothes!!
Fab! I found this too - always difficult to lose weight without hunger as a 60 yo post menopausal woman - healthy keto has changed my life and mindset - down 2 stone already and fat adapted, on 2MAD and working towards OMAD!
I wish my parents and grandparents knew this information. They might still be alive. They ate all the things you people say not to. None of them were over weight. They had a dairy farm. Start work at 3 AM to 9 PM 365 days a year and they all lived well into their 90's.
They were active and their metabolisms were healthy, as proof in their longevity and good health. Not everyone needs to go keto, if they are aware of their carb intake, remain 100g per day and lower and eat clean and healthy fats too. But our sedentary lives, constant snacking and processed foods, plus bad advice about eating grains, bread, cereals and so on, has wrecked my metabolism and my husband’s. Thankfully we found this before insulin resistance turned into T2D and we are healthier now than the last 2 decades. I wish I hadn’t relied on the food pyramid for structure in my diet. That’s what caused the weight gain, endless hunger, insulin resistance. I was doing research to help my T2D brother. Found the health benefits of keto, tried it in my house with success, told my brother and he is down a hundred pounds and almost off his meds. If I had known better, I could have lived more like your parents and grandparents.
@@wallacesousuke1433 Good vegetarian diet has a lot of proteins Keto limits protein I am not saying either will end up in nursing home .... just saying these are misconception about any diet that is not well understood All these diets if not done well can get you somewhere bad
Since I started on Intermittent Fasting....Keto, I have never felt better in a long time. Energy levels...too the roof my sleep amazing. Blood pressure good, cholesterol levels 125. Down 50kg😍
Fantastic interview! I really like Dom's demeanor and humility. Keto has not only increased my mental clarity but significantly decreased irritability and anger. I am so much more calm and at ease.
I was on keto for about a year or year and a half. Then, I changed jobs, moved back home, and got off keto. I slowly started becoming less mentally quick. I was having problems with stress and depression. I have got back on keto and I feel better all the way around. I don't care about the fitness or athletic part - just the mental well-being benefits of keto make me want to stay on this permanently. I have had to work hard at getting into spices and herbs when cooking - and get away from sugar. Everything I eat now is spicy, complex herbal flavors, healthy fats, moderate protein. And I eat a lot less than I used to.
Dropped and impressive 14 lbs in 3 weeks of keto. No longer do I feel inflamed and angry/depressed. Energy levels are through the roof, and I'm accomplishing all my goals in study and work. I'm soon going to make double the money I'm making right now all thanks to Keto. Everything in life works great when my brain is in keto

This was absolutely amazing to watch!! Dr. Dom D'Agostino is truly a brilliant mind, so humble and a breath of fresh air. Thank you so very much for having him on! I have taken a lot of notes and will start implementing some of the material he's shared. Tom, I have to tell you how much I love your work and hope you know the critical role you're playing in changing peoples lives for the better. I just love your CZcams channel!!
After getting a stroke in my right eye, and having very high blood pressure, I went on a keto diet and have lost 28 pounds. Bp is now super low. Still keto to manage my weight. A real life saver!
Dr. Dom D' Agostino is very helpful and encouraging in presenting the ketogenic diet! I'm grateful for his work, along with many others in this field. I have been implementing a keto diet in my dad's life (and my own). My dad has rheumatoid arthritis and I notice that when he follows the diet a bit closer, he does exponentially better as far as moving his body. I am getting closer to perimenopause, and I've noticed it helps me with blood sugar balance as well as balancing my hormones! Thank you so much for sharing all of this D' Agostino! 💜
I love hearing Dom explain things. It makes such a difference in my understanding. Thank you. My training was in Math and physics, but I’ve been interested in nutrition since the late 1960’s. How our understanding has changed! Thank unbothered so much.
My mother died with alzhamiers. Doctors gave her so many pills I think it did it to her. No one in the family ever had it. When she died we found thousands of pills. Not one doctor ever told us about diet, just another pill. Naminda was the last pill.
I am 52 and I fell into depression eating crap like donuts and breads, I got overweight and got more depressed then last September I realised how fat I got. I got onto Keto just before Christmas. I have lost weight, I am coming out of depression I have lots of energy and I have never experienced such mental clarity as I have since Keto and increasing MCT oil intake. Although I miss bread now and then, I have no interest in sweets any more and I do not crave sugar. Since I have increased my Apple Cider Vinegar and Zinc I have lost more
The amount of mental focus, clarity of thought, peace of mind, complete destruction of anxiety and depression you feel living on fat (ketone) fuels is staggering. You feel strong. I am 51. I feel like the 25 year old Greg I'd lost. Far as diet goes it's easy. You are almost never hungry on this diet. You don't really want to eat much. People lose a lot of weight because you make your fat stores your main fuel source. It's pretty terrific.
Three things that work together that changed my life - Intermittent Fasting, Keto diet, and HIIT Training. I was 209 lbs beginning of 2021 and I’m at 179 as of October 2021 :)
It's such an amazing lifestyle. I made the switch a few months back and have never once thought about going back. The clarity and energy is just incomparable!
Tom, your interview skills are great. Makes it easier to tune in and understand the material your guests are trying to share. So often, my attention is interrupted by questions I have regarding something a guest said, resulting in me dismissing the rest. You ask right when I ask and it helps me to stay engaged. Thanks.
I discovered I was lactose intolerant and every time I ate bread I felt like it didnt digest all the way...i felt terrible and I love bread...so I went no wheat products i.e gluten free. After a month of not eating wheat products my lactose intolerance was reversed. I had a milkshake from cold stones and I was fine. I use to drink soda, sweet ice tea etc...and everytime I did I would get bloated, I had a soda gut and I was addicted to soda. I didnt care so much for sweets and candy or cakes just soda. So I gave up soda and felt weak and hungry... all this was before I ever heard of keto diet. Now that I have I can manage my no wheat/carb no sugar way of eating and it's much easier...I never was one to count calories or measure what I eat....who has time? But mainly I eat what I want minus carbs and sugar and I fast intermittently... l can see my soda gut disappear and I have more energy. I never hand energy to lift weights before but now I do...keto is not a diet it's just how man ate for thousands of years. Think about it...our ancestors didnt eat sugar or refined carbs....they ate veggies grains (whole non gmo) meat( grass fed free roaming) eggs etc they ate real food. Go to any supermarket and besides the meat,fish and fresh greens sections(to some extent).....the rest of supermarket is just processed refined junk that's keeping us sick or killing us slowly
The best interviews I have ever seen. About the "kind word", Keto is lifting me and my wife right up out of darkness, and saving our lives. . Mainstream medical was killing us, some permanent damage is the permanent price for it. We have bought quite a lot of time now. Vitality is back, thanks to Keto.
Tom, I am very grateful for your show. I can experience how you truly devote yourself with intention to give in every show and with every guest you bring. I am also grateful for Dom D'Agostino. His information was vital to me. As I have just embraced the Keto lifestyle. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Be blessed!
Tom, I love your interview style. It's such a treat searching for a person and seeing you've interviewed them. Whether it's leadership skills or health and nutrition, I'm a huge fan. Keep it up. PS a 5 day fast seems daunting for me. Though I haven't going with 2 or 3 24 hour fasts a year for a while. I've never thought if extending it. I did a 24 hour one just today. Maybe I'll push for 2 days in a few weeks.
I ate what they told me was healthy and it gave me type 2 diabetes. Then I did the diet they recommended for diabetes for 2 years and my blood sugar never once when normal. So I started a low carb/keto diet and my blood sugar has now been normal for a whole year. My hearing is better, my eyesight is better (lowered my sight prescription twice), my skin now heals properly, it is easier to lose weight, and I have more energy, less headaches or brain fog and improved memory. No more than 100g of net carb a day is vital, 50g or below for sustain weight loss.
I tried low carb in 1996 1998 and 2002, problem is that with the lack of information i felt terrible each time, and was not doing it right, the weight fell off but when i was in ketosis i never adapted. My sport doctor went to a conference in California on cancer and the ketogenic diet and when he came back he had lots of information, mainly about electrolytes how to use them to avoid the keto flu, type of training and how to mix some intermittent fasting with keto to get sick results. I started keto 2 weeks ago and just added fasting a bit, i also got a good multi vitamin, extra C and D3, and some biotin to keep my hair, so far everything is going great, sodium potassium and magnesium everyday and added collagen and arginine. Very excited to see how things will go my sport doctor ask me to shed at least 20 to 30 pounds with keto fasting and training i am not sweating this at all.
keto mean high protein and high fat..... that all you going to burn.... but if you need stamina.. you need carb... brown rice for example are vitamin... if your bady had issue try to get it form meat... also can happen..... fact is losing weight had issue... and our body just don't like getting thin... it only do for attracting opposite sex...
@@campkira "if you need stamina you need carbs"..... Where did you get that from? Fats are a far better fuel than carbs. I can fast for 48 hours, and do two 14 mile bike rides within that fast have lots of energy. But if I have carbs before a ride my energy levels go down. Fats are a far more stable energy source than carbs. And brown rice is a grain so they really shouldn't be eaten.
Before being hacked by the junk gluten free full of carbs industry. Being Primal and Paleo was about being fat adapted. But It was corrupted by the main stream. Like Keto is corrupted now by the powders makers and making people stressed about chasing ketone at all price. You must develop a malleable metabolism if you are not sick and broken. I understand here that he is talking about a specific application for a sickness in part. Very interesting .
Really liked the guys ability to communicate his knowledge and wisdom, it just seems to be a really nice dude, he has a kind and honest vibe, interested in how keto can reduce anxiety and inflammation. Like the way he was interviewed, professional and engaged. So glad I took the time to listen to this postcast. I'll ditch the bread during week, everything else in my diet is pretty good, I'm a fan of good amount of protein & veggies with homemade yoghurt and kimchi. But I really struggle to give up chocolate and artificial sweeteners, at age 59 I'm trying to do a little bit of exercise each day consistently as well as walk. Work is very fighting demanding of energy and time, I live alone and don't have that many positive connections so that important part is not as easy to make happen living in a city believe it or not. I'm so tired after work I can't bear to go to any kind of group or gathering. The trick is to stay positive love yourself and be kind to others 💗
going from eating 6 meals a day of high protein, carbs and low fat, constantly starving, obsessing over food and not being able to drop weight and bodyfat regardless of how low I dropped me carbs and weighing around 280lbs (20+ stone) and finding keto along side intermittent fasting has changed my life in various ways from dropping down to 230lbs (17 stone) with more energy, better skin, better focus in life and while exercising....in essence eat healthy fats, limit your food intake and don't listen to what you here on social media
I'm curious: do you think it's possible to attain a physique like yours (very muscular build) with just Keto? It sounds counter intuïtive, having to live on a 20% proteïne intake.
You got heather saying it caused it and another saying it helped. A few comments up you got Mike saying the diet caused a stroke and another guy saying it helped his stroke smh
I have tried other keto diet programs, but HyperKeto is the best. The customization features are really helpful, especially because I am a vegetarian. It also helps me to stick with the program and know exactly how much I need to eat on a daily basis.
Tom, you've had people on your show that promote a Keto lifestyle and others who are opponents of Keto. I know you've never done it before, however a panel of opponents and proponents would be great for a topic of discussion. Thanks for all that you do. You really have people thinking of ways to change their life!
byReZio sorry, but Rich Roll does not look even remotely as good as this guy🤦♀️. He looks good and fit for 51 absolutely, but he looks 51. My husband is the same age as Rich Roll, and also cycles as well as other athletic activities and he is just as fit as Rich. Cycling will do that to you. My husband is an omnivore....not Keto or Vegan. Rich has the typical 51 year old wrinkles in the face, and this guys face is super smooth and much younger looking. I find Rich is gaunt looking in the face.
@@justylex rich roll openly admits to a life of addiction and abuse of drugs. Wfpb changed his life. So if he doesn't look perfect to you at his current age, this could be a part of it. But to deny his positive results changing to a wfpb diet is silly.
I didn't need no Keto diet, that diet may cause some possible problems like liver, kidney and heart issues.....My story.....I'm a 63 year old man. I was 31% body fat, a BMI of 29..depressed and got out of breath quickly. My doc said I needed to change, or else..so, I first cut out sugar. When that happened, my depression virtually vanished...THAT is the best thing a person can do. I sweeten using Stevia, a healthy substitute. I upped my green intake a LOT, slowed WAY down on carbs, especially breads and most pastas. It's ok to indulge once in a while..Rice is OK, as long as the glycemic load is low, like basmati (medium) but black or wild rice is best. Very high in anti-oxidants.I made sure to check glycemic LOADS of foods, not the number. I QUIT DRINKING BEER, high in carbs and sugars....red wine is good for you I eat more plant based protein but still eat fish and chicken, hardly any red meat. I started weight training and I workout about 5 hours a week and moderate cardio. Lots of brisk walking. So, after about a year and a half, I have a BMI of 23.5 and a body fat % of 14, and I look REAL good...Like I said, the BEST thing is to quit sugar. That was a game changer for me.
I am 3 weeks into keto, and let me tell u, I already sleep so much better. My energy is very low though. Hope that will change soon. And I totally agree. We are ALL human, different, but we all can make mistakes. That s why I don t like to talk too much about being right or wrong in extreme ways. I prefer open wisdoms, and talk about until now we found out that this is so and so, but science, and also non science, should be open to adapt, improve the improved and accept that life is not a black or white, wrong right experience, Yes some things are really red lines, those are to name, as very wrong, and there s such a right things, that should be kept forever, as they have brought us to today. But all the rest should be about improving the improved. I think. Interesting interview. Wow
Dom D'Agostino looks unintelligent on the thumbnail, but he's brilliant and I'm so glad I watched this. Please give him a better thumbnail pic for this video!
*Changed my life. I will never eat the same ever again. "Unless you physically trip and your face lands in a box **weightlose.fitness** of donuts, there is no such thing as a 'slip'." Get that mind set and you'll win again and again.*
Disagree, just like alcohol, sometimes willpower isn't enough to simply overcome. If you work and they're constantly bringing pizza, pasteries, cakes, donuts every day, it's very hard to not want it every day. and sure 99/100 days you can say no, but eventually exposure can win. If you're using all your willpower to say no to certain things, then you will loose will power else where. Will power is a finite resource. willpower is connected to a limited reserve of mental energy, and once we run out of that energy, we're more likely to lose self-control.
I'm 35, and have been severely depressed and suicidal since I was 8 years old. Bunch of different meds and different Psychs and Dr's. I am currently a service technician so I am always on the road and the temptation of stopping at places to stop and grab something is incredible. I was drinking 3-4 Nos's a day and eating garbage for 2 years straight. I got to a point I said enough and cut out the sugars and carbs and have not looked back since. I have been doing Keto for about 9 months now and I can say it single handedly changed my life. First time I can remember not feeling like death was a great option. And I'm also proud to say I have been completely med free for 2 months (after carefully weaning myself off for the last 2 months or so prior). I feel great!
bravo to you!!
Way to go. so happy for you.
ex-sandwich lover right on man! Keto has helped me also doc tried to put me on anti depressant they made me worse i made them check testosterone and mine was low and had excessive prolactin in my system that was suppressing my testosterone which killed my energy and was stagnating any progress in gym
That's just amazing! I'm so happy for you.
Fantastic! Helps to know this.
1. Low carbs no processed foods (keto nutrition) 2.reduce insulin spikes (OMAD) 3.supportive positive relationships that reduce stress 4. back to nature exercise 5. positive mindset/meditation
Thank you for this summary
Where does does low carb stop? Can i eat fruit/ oats? Do i just stick to few veggies?
I did OMAD for a month but it wasn't Keto. I would just eat a big 900 calorie burrito for my meal and I gained a bunch of weight even though I was eating less than 1000 calories a day. Then I switched over to doing Ketogenic OMAD and lost 15 pounds.
@@stefanul I'm a type 1 diabetic so I see how much insulin the body needs to process things. Fruit and oats would for sure put you over the limit. For true keto it's very low like 20-30 grams of carbs a day. I think staying low around 60 keep the insulin levels low but you may not be in ketosis.
@@YogawithAliBeale as an update, right not i barely even eat vegetables. I treat them as a supplement. I gulp a lot of fat and protein. I find my self carving a spoonful of butter or coconut oil and shoving it into my mouth and I'm like: "isn't that supposed to be gross?"
At 60 years old, I lost weight from 250 pounds down to 180 pounds and 12 inches off my waistline in 6 months with keto and one hour per day casual walking.
I also found the calmness with Stoic principles of Epictetus and Marcus Aurelius.
I don't fight problems with anger; I allow problems to flow around me like water flows around rocks in the river, looking for solutions instead of complaints.

I love it. She sounds awesome
Did you ask her why? Yeah, I thought so. Stupid ppl believe stupid things. Thanks for sharing your “wisdom” and that of your grandmother... *pepehands*
You took it literally guys...If you eat bread mostly, you are unable mentally earn better money to buy something else (more expensive). It’s like having expensive car, but no money to maintain that! You just try to make false impression to people that you have money...
Too bad you didn’t listen 😝
@@brothertn708 Shit - too late. I'm already stupid.
I have been Keto for 2 weeks and already noticing a change mentally. I used to be so sluggish in the morning and some mornings I wouldn't even get out of bed to wake my kids up for school. Now I'm awake at 4:40 every morning and I get up to get my husband and kids off to work and school. I have also begun cleaning and organizing like crazy, and have been enjoying the energy! I love this new way of living and I wish I would've discovered it sooner.
why i don;t feel the same , even though i almost don;t touch carbs
@@XAE_A_Xii I was going to write something similar. I do intermittent fasting, either 16:8 or 18:6 as well as low carb. Plus I walk twice a day most days. I get up every day feeling tired, life's an effort at times. Maybe some are slower to feel the benefits. Good luck with it.
@@lynnettemurphy8243 i actually started to feel tired during the day and waking up is hard as always. i am second month into the keto diet. good luck to us
@@lynnettemurphy8243 agreed only 2 days on keto n it messed up my metabolism use to be thin now keep gaining weight during n after keto diets it messed up my mental health and relationship with food overall now I’ve completely given up on everything for past years. Keto is a fad diet like the rest. And fat is last resort source for your body your body needs carbs if it can’t burn carbs it burns protein then fat as last resort
@@healingandgrowth-infp4677 Without being judgmental to you, why does your own personal (extremely short) experience lead you to belittle a diet that has huge results behind it?
I do sympathize with your situation but have to suggest that perhaps there is something you're eating or doing,might be incorrect or clashing with the diet.
I am no fan of "Keto" true believers (I struggle with any "true believers") but after 8 weeks of a Keto/paleo diet with intermittent fasting (not eating after dinner till 1pm) as per the youtube videos of Dr Stan Ekberg, I have lost 9 Kgs and am slimmer than I have been in 12+ years. However, as a motocross racer (MX) I have struggled with energy until about 8 weeks in when suddenly my mind cleared and I have heaps of energy. I'm still to figure out how to store or create the energy required for high intensity MX racing but that will come after I get to my goal weight (a loss of around 17 Kg's).
Insulin resistance is a big thing, if you look into that it might help you work out how and why your work so far hasn't achieved what you wanted.
Anyway, best of luck. I can say that it really has worked for me and another work colleague who has lost 14 Kg's in about 12 weeks. All without any excercise.
It's a way of life for me. I have dropped four medications and my doctor is very happy with me. She did Keto and told me about it. She wants her people under her care to heal. Thank you for sharing.
Treasure that Doctor

So you are about epilepsy? That’s great, so happy for you!
🍂 congratulation and stay well...
great to here :)
Have you considered going raw fruitarian? Jk
I suffered really badly with Trigeminal Neuralgia for almost 9 years, tried everything and nothing worked, then found research on the effectiveness of Keto on Epilepsy and tried it out immediately... All symptoms went into remission within a couple of days and have not returned since and thats over 3 years now...
The shocking truth is after 4 months on KETO I'm off all meds and Bloodwork is completely normal
That is great but 4 months is a pretty short period of time in life. So def keep at it and do check back again. Keep tracking.

Me too, 3 months and all bloods back to normal 👍
@@christopherdoran3608and how is everything???
Keto has helped me so much with depression, anxiety, overall mental clairty & health. Losing weight is just a side effect. Ive only lost 10lbs in 5 months, i do it more for the energy, how good i feel, and my mental health.
Truth!
can you elaborate more on how it helped with anxiety? is it purely stabilized insulin levels or are you finding its that and additional factors from being in ketosis?
Keto is a joke and garbage. There is zero science behind it. Get educated. Animals are not food.
@@jprince3 not too sure. More stable blood sugars play a role im sure. Brain fog has gone away so its possible some people's brain may run better on ketoned than glucose.
@@Davidthemarathoner if you were educated on the subject, you would know there are keto vegetarians. Although I don't buy into meat is bad. Meat has been a food source of ours for ages, processed carbohydrates however have not and chronic diseases and obesity went up along with the consumption of processed carbohydrates and increased frequency of eating.
People will only change when they WANT to change! You can’t force anyone to change; it has to come internally with each person. All I do is try and become an example for folks who observe my excellent health and lifestyle. If they ask, the door is now open...

Awesome to hear about your success with the diet . What do you eat & drink daily?
Cher Bear, I hear alot of people say that keto cured their depression, anxiety, insomnia and migraines. I think I know why. It's because those are all symptoms of a low B12 and eating all the meat on the keto diet restored their B12 levels. Not only did you cure those things, you also look great with a slim beautiful face.

@@BowzerTowboats Nice thanks for replying man
rage is a big worldwide problem and i think diet plays a huge role
Great story well done
I find it fascinating how so many are sharing their life changing results from the effects of Keto. I personally was on the fence but decided to give it a try. Since I started I have lost over 12lbs and I was overly obese I was maybe 20lbs overweight. The one interesting thing I did notice was how when I jogged my sciatica no longer flared. Then if I decided to cheat and go carb crazy that day my sciatica would kill me. When I went back on Keto no pain. So I assume it’s due to inflammation but whatever it is what I feel is real.
I have R.A. was on Humira . And over weight. Been on keto for almost a year. Been off Humira for 7 months No pain. And lost 40 pds. It works.
And when you ate carbs, you mean you ate junk, and/or for sure was mixing fat with it. and that's the problem
@@GaryHighFruit Doesn't take junk carbs to do it. For someone that sees a transformation the form of carb doesn't matter nearly as much as the dose. And fat is the largest macronutrient on a Keto diet. It is the primary nutrient, not protein.
@@keithsmith3118 But junk food IS mostly what creates problems like diabetes, overweight etc because
1. sugar enters the blood too fast
2. and it cant get out because the fat in junk food(which people forget about) blocks insulin receptor cells from taking sugar out of the blood.
Another thing: junk food doesn't have the nutrients needed for the body to work properly.
This is why low-fat/grain/fruit-based diets work so well.
@@GaryHighFruit Not entirely true but definitely a path in the wrong direction. Metabolic dysfunction has more causes than just malnourishment through junk food.
I was on a whole foods plant based HIGH CARB diet for about five years because I thought it would prevent heart disease. Instead, I gained 40 pounds, had to start taking PPI's for acid reflux and EoE, and eventually started taking duloxetine for anxiety. About 6 months ago, I decided to make a change. I ditched the grains, started eating more animal proteins, and ate more sweet potatoes instead of white or red potatoes. My acid reflux went away, I got off all medications, and my stomach began slowly healing itself. I feel a little better every day. No weight loss yet, but I'm still healing!
I have a very similar story, but it came after I suffered a stomach ulcer after a very stressful semester of law school. Like you, I was told that a "whole, natural" diet of vegetables and whole grains was the answer. But, my acid reflux persisted. I had days where my heartburn was so bad that I thought I was having a heart attack. I chalked it up to anxiety and it being a mental issue. However, one day I randomly stumbled upon a video by Dr. Ken Berry where he said that if you eliminate carbs, your acid reflux goes away. Figuring I had nothing left to lose, I went down from 300 carbs a day to about 90-130 carbs a day. After 10 days, my acid reflux literally went away. The center of my chest hasn't hurt one time either. It's insane how we can live so long thinking we're bound to a miserable fate, and then one day randomly we find out that everything can be changed. That's literally what happened to me!
A lot of the same. High carb, low fat for heart disease. 5 years. My body went from muscular to smooth. Ended up in the GI docs office.
Changing my beliefs on ketones, cholesterol, and dietary fat was challenging as heck for me. 😊
@@adamthewoodworker2571 Yup, I've looked into Dr. Berry as well. He saw a lot of patients struggling to find health even though they were all eating according to the AHA guidelines and switched to a carnivore diet to see much better results. For me, it was Dr. Cate Shanahan and Dr. Mark Hyman. It was ditching the vegetable oils, the sugars, eating too many fruits, and upping my non starchy vegetables. It was eating more ferments and pressure raised organic eggs and even sugar free bacon! I've been eating this way now for over a year and I'll never go back to that high carb shit. It did nothing but wreck me.
@@wheelofcheese100 Oh yeah, I hear ya there. When I was all plant based low fat, my cholesterol was super low. About 129, HDL 39 LDL 79. I thought that was really good and I'd never get a heart attack. But what people don't realize it's cholesterol is needed for so many things in the body, especially hormones. My testosterone was so low it was barely on the chart. I was super tired all the time, the fat around my stomach refused to budge no matter how hard I worked out, and my anxiety was horrible. I'm anxious to see how my numbers change after a few years of eating a more traditional human diet. But no, as long as your body is properly burning fat for energy and your HDL is high, you have no reason to fear cholesterol.
@@TheBeardedSandman I had no clue back when I was avoiding cholesterol how important it was
I healed my carpal tunnel on Keto. I used to get shots in my wrist and had to wear wrist braces so my hands wouldn't get numb at work. Since switching to Keto and IF, my inflammatory issues are non-existent. Oh, and I lost 30 lbs btw.
Same. I started my keto diet and I am know able to massage my wife. Lol. Don’t have carpal tunnel.
Better if she massages you!
I was first diagnosed with Osteoarthritis, then I developed CTS as a complication. I eat lots of raw turmeric root to control the inflammation. Since I started Keto and IF my symptoms are reduced 90%.
It certainly works . I'm losing weight too. There's a long way to go but I will reach my goal because I've found a way that works.
It sounds like you changed a few things. It isnt JUST keto, but if it works for you keep at it!
@@optimismrules2512
Yeah probably, im sure cutting out the sugar and processed foods, eating more holistic was a big part of it. But I wouldn't have done that if I hadn't switched to keto. The inflammation was the gone, and my metabolism returned to the level of being a teenager again.
I have been following keto diet for the last 1.5 years. I remember how weak I used to feel before I started keto. I couldn't even go for 15 minute walk that I would be out of breath. Now everyday I have to go for walk for an hour. Or else I actually start feeling weak. This diet has made me more energetic and I love how I feel mentally. I am more focused and can learn new things with full attention. Now my purpose is to create more awareness about keto diet to my friends and family because I want to take them on this amazing journey that I have embarked on.

I have been on keto for over a year. I started it because I read that I had to stay away from sugar and carbs for my rheumatoid arthritis. My doctor said it wasn’t true, but, I was on it 2 months already and was off one of my pills. I decided to stay on it and have lost over 50 lbs. and off all my medication for rheumatoid arthritis. I am very happy and have no arthritis pain in my body. I am very happy with the recipes and will always eat this way. Shockingly I do not miss pasta, sweets and ice cream. I have all substitutes that are just as good. I am 73 and feel the best I ever did.

Can a strict vegetarian go on a ketogenic diet?
I healed my Asthma with Keto. When I cut out carbs and sugar, I didn't use my inhaler anymore. Will it work for everybody? I don't know but it definitely helped me. I no longer need to go to the pharmacy to refill inhalers.
Not all carbs are created equal. Refined carbs often are filled with preservatives, oils, dairy byproducts and so on. Eat whole foods.
U can have some carbs on keto too. Low glycemic carbs like quinoa and buckwheat will not spike blood sugar so high to kick tou out of ketosis. There are others
what is your diet like in general?
@@offthechainfitness My diet right now is Salmon, Chicken, Grass fed beef/steak, Pasture raised eggs, Butter, Avocado, Spinach and sometimes blueberries.
This is because you're losing weight, not because you're not eating sugar. Sugar doesn't cause asthma. Obesity sometimes does.
At 58 I went straight up carnivore diet 9 weeks ago, thank God I found this diet! What an improvement in my life. Never going back to carbs or sugar, ever...
I'm 58 too. I'm about 30 lbs over weight and pretty out of shape. I started Keto a few weeks ago but still tweaking my grocery list, I have some bananas I need to eat..... Anyone want some free potatoes???
Same here. Over a year carnivore. 45 and body composition is better than it was in my 20’s
Humans are obligate carnivores.
Plant food is our last resort when meat is unavailable.
@@bullymaguire2061 If that's the case, humans should've had carnivore's teeth/ jaw and we should've been able to eat raw meat without getting dangerous parasites/ bacteria. But I guess you must've listened to Sv3rige's or Frank Tufano's suggestions
@@bullymaguire2061 no. We are omnivores. Plenty of studies to prove that as well. We do just fine with BOTH animal and plant food sources

Keto works and actually sways you away from junky food choices. I was having stomach aches and nausea. feel better already only after 5 days of eating a more keto lifestyle
Keto Diet is simply eating natural food the way it was intended by nature, and to follow the natural cycles of the body instead of forcing it into artificial schedules.
I am lucky I've been doing this all my life without even realizing it. I love natural food and Ive usually just eaten once a day. I'm 40 years old and everyone thinks I'm in my twenties.
I look half my age too. The less you know about good or bad, the less food will make you look old.
This is true. It is a simple diet that people out there argue with because they eat carbs and want to continue overloading on carbs! This is not a rocket science type of thing. People hear the words HIGH FAT and shit a brick. Sugar is the problem. Science has already debunked the Fat is bad idea. Big food and big pharma are killing people, even though there are lives saved by medications, but that's not the point.
can you tellme what you eat mainly?

My mom was diagnosed with dementia and shortly after put on hospice. Hcf, ckd, diabetic etc the wjole 9 yards. I put her on the keto diet and she graduated hospice was doing well for 3 yrs and now back on hospice but is still doing good and may graduate again soon. So they say her heart, brain, kidneys etc are getting stronger. This is all in time frame from 2015-now end of 2018.
Three months of keto and intermittent and prolonged fasting and I am no longer a type two diabetic.
No more inflammation and no more neuropathy! Feeling coming back to my feet
I've been doing keto for 2 and 1/2 years. I started because I wanted to lose a little weight but I've stuck with it and intend to stick with it for the rest of my life because I've never felt better. I feel physically and mentally energetic, clear, and alive in a way that I haven't before. I fell off the wagon twice for about a month or two and went back to eating regular food and felt foggy, lethargic, anxious and bloated. I realized I could never go back to that full time again. It's keto for life for me. It's just a no-brainer I feel so amazing and I eat such delicious food it's not a hard diet to stick to now that how to cook and eat this way has become second nature.
This whole thing is GOLD!! Especially Dom's answer to the last question about Relationships being the most important factor on health.
Relationship with a higher power is most important
I've been on the keto diet for about a month and I've been trying to get into the rhythm of things. I tried HyperKeto and I'm happy to report that it helped me lose 15 pounds and feel great!
What is Hyper keto??
As a former meth head, IV, hopelessly addicted. A Keto diet really helped my brain calm down and get on top of those bad feedback loops in my mind.
I highly recommend it to anyone dealing with the same kinda struggle.
The brain is mostly fat so building a brain with a fat based diet makes sense. EFAs lines the myelin sheath. When you get holes in it MS happens. Other mental illnesses can be helped with EFAs. Omega 6 is more important than omega 3. A teaspoon or 2 of cold pressed sunflower tastes great and is loaded with omega 6. Flax oil for omega 3, about 1/2 tsp. Stay away from processed oils and fish oil.
Joe Schmoe the brain actually needs glucose as well as fat.
@@Noor-jw2tn Your body can produce any glucose it needs.
I hope you are still clean, glad the keto lifestyle helped you. There is nothing harder to kick than meth so congratulations.
It helped me recover from an addiction as well. Brain healing stuff, never thought healing to this degree was possible!
Two weeks into Keto:
Diminished my psoriasis on my face, it's almost gone. I've had it for almost a year.
I rarely have acid reflux after I eat meals, which was a common occurrence for me.
No more cravings throughout the day, eating only 2 meals.
Waking up a lot more early everyday, less needed naps throughout the day. Much more energry.
My chess game has gotten better lol.
I'm still experiencing a bit of the Keto flu every now and then but the pros are outweighing the cons by far.
This has changed my life, I'm so glad I found out about how our overloaded sugar diet is destroying us!
It's an unforgivable sin that othe food industries have duped us to eat the way they want us to.
I plan to inform people around me as much as possible.

i prefer keto (for example Hyperketo program) - but it's personal of course
Best thing for me is a keto / carnivore diet. Sooo many issues were resolved by being strict with carbs. I am addicted to carbs and I understand even a little turns me into a non stop eating machine.

You should really change you title.
The overhyped title of the video almost drove me away from watching it.
Yes
I actually thought this video was gonna bash the keto diet after reading the title. Not that I would've believed it? I did the keto diet for a really short time,short because of financial constraints? But even with that short time? I felt a big difference all around
@@MatteoTaiana hahaha, couldn't agree more
I totally agree. I really really REALLY hate click bate, especially when it's a channel I like.
This is exactly what has been going on in my 80 year old body these past few years. Someone should study me. Intuitively by paying attention to my body I’ve been driven to a keto / carnivor lifestyle. No formal testing, just feedback from my body.
My brain, attitudes body have all responded so well.
when you get older.. you need more than just meat....
I think it's the meat(proteins) that are helping you. Keto is just a bunch of dangerous fat. It's a fool's paradise.
I went keto 2 years ago after two arteries on my heart closed up , got two stents . Now at 70 yrs. old my brain fog has cleared I am off all medications , don't get tired (out of breath) regularly ride 16 miles on old 3 speed bike in 80 + degrees , feel great .New lease on life in my book .
Wow that's amazing ! What do you eat and drink in a day if you don't mind me asking ?
@@Myworldmymind908 I try to but don't always just keep it simple ,sausage and eggs, roast with some cauliflower or broccoli or cabbage in beef stock in crock pot . I worked my way up to eating one meal a day over time . When eating mostly meat you can go 24 hours between meals ,black coffee , water , When I discovered autophagy I did a 3 day fast then graduated over time to 7 day fast , first 3 days were a little sketchy but after that it was hard to believe how easy it was to not eat , as long as you have ample fat storage on your body,hope this helps .
Hi Robert! Your comment has me completely fascinated! I know someone who has had three stents put in and the doctor said she will have to be on blood thinners for the rest of her life she must take eight or nine medication and they have her convinced she’ll have to take them forever. She is on keto and I’m hoping that one day she too will be able to get off all those medication’s. The slightest tap on her body produces huge bruising and she’s covered in black and blues all the time. I know she won’t believe it but I’m gonna keep your message here and pray that she gets off all her medication and that you’re doing well too!
I truly hope you get a chance to read this and thank you very much for your comment, it’s giving me some hope!

I am over 65 and could not lose weight until I tried the Keto Diet. I have lost 22 pounds so far and it is wonderful to finally fit comfortably in my clothes!!
Fab! I found this too - always difficult to lose weight without hunger as a 60 yo post menopausal woman - healthy keto has changed my life and mindset - down 2 stone already and fat adapted, on 2MAD and working towards OMAD!
Same im down 13lbs! Age 45
I wish my parents and grandparents knew this information. They might still be alive. They ate all the things you people say not to. None of them were over weight. They had a dairy farm. Start work at 3 AM to 9 PM 365 days a year and they all lived well into their 90's.
Yep, there's a lot more to learn before we say This is what you need to do.
They were active and their metabolisms were healthy, as proof in their longevity and good health. Not everyone needs to go keto, if they are aware of their carb intake, remain 100g per day and lower and eat clean and healthy fats too. But our sedentary lives, constant snacking and processed foods, plus bad advice about eating grains, bread, cereals and so on, has wrecked my metabolism and my husband’s. Thankfully we found this before insulin resistance turned into T2D and we are healthier now than the last 2 decades. I wish I hadn’t relied on the food pyramid for structure in my diet. That’s what caused the weight gain, endless hunger, insulin resistance. I was doing research to help my T2D brother. Found the health benefits of keto, tried it in my house with success, told my brother and he is down a hundred pounds and almost off his meds. If I had known better, I could have lived more like your parents and grandparents.
@@karend.9218 it was probably good they lived when they did. None of them would have a bloody clue what carbs and calories were.

Fantastic interview! I really like Dom's demeanor and humility. Keto has not only increased my mental clarity but significantly decreased irritability and anger. I am so much more calm and at ease.
I was on keto for about a year or year and a half. Then, I changed jobs, moved back home, and got off keto. I slowly started becoming less mentally quick. I was having problems with stress and depression. I have got back on keto and I feel better all the way around. I don't care about the fitness or athletic part - just the mental well-being benefits of keto make me want to stay on this permanently.
I have had to work hard at getting into spices and herbs when cooking - and get away from sugar. Everything I eat now is spicy, complex herbal flavors, healthy fats, moderate protein. And I eat a lot less than I used to.
Dropped and impressive 14 lbs in 3 weeks of keto. No longer do I feel inflamed and angry/depressed. Energy levels are through the roof, and I'm accomplishing all my goals in study and work. I'm soon going to make double the money I'm making right now all thanks to Keto.
Everything in life works great when my brain is in keto
Was this also merged with exercise?
@@Complexchristian I was doing Calisthenics and yoga but I broke my cubitus wrist bone and had to replace it by walking.

This was absolutely amazing to watch!! Dr. Dom D'Agostino is truly a brilliant mind, so humble and a breath of fresh air. Thank you so very much for having him on! I have taken a lot of notes and will start implementing some of the material he's shared. Tom, I have to tell you how much I love your work and hope you know the critical role you're playing in changing peoples lives for the better. I just love your CZcams channel!!
I LOVE how information-dense this is. I feel like I want a transcript and a highlighter!
After getting a stroke in my right eye, and having very high blood pressure, I went on a keto diet and have lost 28 pounds. Bp is now super low. Still keto to manage my weight. A real life saver!
Yet someone just a couple comments up from has claimed the diet caused him a stroke. Smh
Who the hell do you believe nowadays smh
Dr. Dom D' Agostino is very helpful and encouraging in presenting the ketogenic diet! I'm grateful for his work, along with many others in this field. I have been implementing a keto diet in my dad's life (and my own). My dad has rheumatoid arthritis and I notice that when he follows the diet a bit closer, he does exponentially better as far as moving his body. I am getting closer to perimenopause, and I've noticed it helps me with blood sugar balance as well as balancing my hormones! Thank you so much for sharing all of this D' Agostino! 💜
I love hearing Dom explain things. It makes such a difference in my understanding. Thank you. My training was in Math and physics, but I’ve been interested in nutrition since the late 1960’s. How our understanding has changed! Thank unbothered so much.
Doc is very well spoken. I love how he LOVES keto but doesn’t talk from a bias!
My mother died with alzhamiers. Doctors gave her so many pills I think it did it to her. No one in the family ever had it. When she died we found thousands of pills. Not one doctor ever told us about diet, just another pill. Naminda was the last pill.
Sorry about your mum. Prescription pills deffo bring on various side effects. Hospitals are essentially factories and doctors don't like cures.
yo man, same with anti pyschotics, they want to keep you on it forever. Not me I am quiting whne and when I want it wheter they like it or not.
I am 52 and I fell into depression eating crap like donuts and breads, I got overweight and got more depressed then last September I realised how fat I got. I got onto Keto just before Christmas. I have lost weight, I am coming out of depression I have lots of energy and I have never experienced such mental clarity as I have since Keto and increasing MCT oil intake. Although I miss bread now and then, I have no interest in sweets any more and I do not crave sugar. Since I have increased my Apple Cider Vinegar and Zinc I have lost more
Congratulations and Godbless you in your journey 🌟🎊🙏🏾

The amount of mental focus, clarity of thought, peace of mind, complete destruction of anxiety and depression you feel living on fat (ketone) fuels is staggering. You feel strong. I am 51. I feel like the 25 year old Greg I'd lost. Far as diet goes it's easy. You are almost never hungry on this diet. You don't really want to eat much. People lose a lot of weight because you make your fat stores your main fuel source. It's pretty terrific.
Three things that work together that changed my life - Intermittent Fasting, Keto diet, and HIIT Training. I was 209 lbs beginning of 2021 and I’m at 179 as of October 2021 :)
It's such an amazing lifestyle. I made the switch a few months back and have never once thought about going back. The clarity and energy is just incomparable!
So inspiring! Love Dom D'Agostino's mind AND his passion! May he live long, well, and Prosper!

Tom, your interview skills are great. Makes it easier to tune in and understand the material your guests are trying to share. So often, my attention is interrupted by questions I have regarding something a guest said, resulting in me dismissing the rest. You ask right when I ask and it helps me to stay engaged. Thanks.
I discovered I was lactose intolerant and every time I ate bread I felt like it didnt digest all the way...i felt terrible and I love bread...so I went no wheat products i.e gluten free. After a month of not eating wheat products my lactose intolerance was reversed. I had a milkshake from cold stones and I was fine.
I use to drink soda, sweet ice tea etc...and everytime I did I would get bloated, I had a soda gut and I was addicted to soda. I didnt care so much for sweets and candy or cakes just soda. So I gave up soda and felt weak and hungry... all this was before I ever heard of keto diet. Now that I have I can manage my no wheat/carb no sugar way of eating and it's much easier...I never was one to count calories or measure what I eat....who has time? But mainly I eat what I want minus carbs and sugar and I fast intermittently... l can see my soda gut disappear and I have more energy. I never hand energy to lift weights before but now I do...keto is not a diet it's just how man ate for thousands of years. Think about it...our ancestors didnt eat sugar or refined carbs....they ate veggies grains (whole non gmo) meat( grass fed free roaming) eggs etc they ate real food. Go to any supermarket and besides the meat,fish and fresh greens sections(to some extent).....the rest of supermarket is just processed refined junk that's keeping us sick or killing us slowly
They ate fruits also

About the "kind word", Keto is lifting me and my wife right up out of darkness, and saving our lives. . Mainstream medical was killing us, some permanent damage is the permanent price for it. We have bought quite a lot of time now. Vitality is back, thanks to Keto.
Tom, I am very grateful for your show. I can experience how you truly devote yourself with intention to give in every show and with every guest you bring. I am also grateful for Dom D'Agostino. His information was vital to me. As I have just embraced the Keto lifestyle. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Be blessed!
Tom, I love your interview style. It's such a treat searching for a person and seeing you've interviewed them. Whether it's leadership skills or health and nutrition, I'm a huge fan. Keep it up. PS a 5 day fast seems daunting for me. Though I haven't going with 2 or 3 24 hour fasts a year for a while. I've never thought if extending it. I did a 24 hour one just today. Maybe I'll push for 2 days in a few weeks.
I ate what they told me was healthy and it gave me type 2 diabetes. Then I did the diet they recommended for diabetes for 2 years and my blood sugar never once when normal. So I started a low carb/keto diet and my blood sugar has now been normal for a whole year. My hearing is better, my eyesight is better (lowered my sight prescription twice), my skin now heals properly, it is easier to lose weight, and I have more energy, less headaches or brain fog and improved memory. No more than 100g of net carb a day is vital, 50g or below for sustain weight loss.
I tried low carb in 1996 1998 and 2002, problem is that with the lack of information i felt terrible each time, and was not doing it right, the weight fell off but when i was in ketosis i never adapted.
My sport doctor went to a conference in California on cancer and the ketogenic diet and when he came back he had lots of information, mainly about electrolytes how to use them to avoid the keto flu, type of training and how to mix some intermittent fasting with keto to get sick results.
I started keto 2 weeks ago and just added fasting a bit, i also got a good multi vitamin, extra C and D3, and some biotin to keep my hair, so far everything is going great, sodium potassium and magnesium everyday and added collagen and arginine.
Very excited to see how things will go my sport doctor ask me to shed at least 20 to 30 pounds with keto fasting and training i am not sweating this at all.
keto mean high protein and high fat..... that all you going to burn.... but if you need stamina.. you need carb... brown rice for example are vitamin... if your bady had issue try to get it form meat... also can happen..... fact is losing weight had issue... and our body just don't like getting thin... it only do for attracting opposite sex...
@@campkira "if you need stamina you need carbs"..... Where did you get that from? Fats are a far better fuel than carbs. I can fast for 48 hours, and do two 14 mile bike rides within that fast have lots of energy. But if I have carbs before a ride my energy levels go down.
Fats are a far more stable energy source than carbs. And brown rice is a grain so they really shouldn't be eaten.
Dr. stephen phinney is really the guy to talk about this stuff. Decades of studies in the field and has a very scientific view to all this
Tom - you are a phenomenal interviewer. You consistently bring out the best of your guest, and the information they have to share. Thank you!
Dr. Dom is creator of our therapeutic ketones since then Dr. Berg is studying Dr. Dom's work lol Follow Dr. Dom you'll be in good hands.
Before being hacked by the junk gluten free full of carbs industry. Being Primal and Paleo was about being fat adapted. But It was corrupted by the main stream. Like Keto is corrupted now by the powders makers and making people stressed about chasing ketone at all price. You must develop a malleable metabolism if you are not sick and broken. I understand here that he is talking about a specific application for a sickness in part. Very interesting .
Really liked the guys ability to communicate his knowledge and wisdom, it just seems to be a really nice dude, he has a kind and honest vibe, interested in how keto can reduce anxiety and inflammation.
Like the way he was interviewed, professional and engaged. So glad I took the time to listen to this postcast. I'll ditch the bread during week, everything else in my diet is pretty good, I'm a fan of good amount of protein & veggies with homemade yoghurt and kimchi. But I really struggle to give up chocolate and artificial sweeteners, at age 59 I'm trying to do a little bit of exercise each day consistently as well as walk. Work is very fighting demanding of energy and time, I live alone and don't have that many positive connections so that important part is not as easy to make happen living in a city believe it or not. I'm so tired after work I can't bear to go to any kind of group or gathering. The trick is to stay positive love yourself and be kind to others 💗
going from eating 6 meals a day of high protein, carbs and low fat, constantly starving, obsessing over food and not being able to drop weight and bodyfat regardless of how low I dropped me carbs and weighing around 280lbs (20+ stone) and finding keto along side intermittent fasting has changed my life in various ways from dropping down to 230lbs (17 stone) with more energy, better skin, better focus in life and while exercising....in essence eat healthy fats, limit your food intake and don't listen to what you here on social media
I'm curious: do you think it's possible to attain a physique like yours (very muscular build) with just Keto? It sounds counter intuïtive, having to live on a 20% proteïne intake.
@@Famizen yes, protein is what you need. Keto/carnivore are high protein diets.
@@Famizen If you are training and using your proteins for muscle growth you need more than 20%.

So eloquently spoken with great confidence. Shows how sure he is about every word he is speaking
I was diagnosed with heart faillure in 2016. In May 2018 I started doing Keto. In Juli my heart was completely normal according to my Cardiologist!
Did you lose weight?
Really? It caused a heart condition on me. Damaged my liver too
You got heather saying it caused it and another saying it helped. A few comments up you got Mike saying the diet caused a stroke and another guy saying it helped his stroke smh
Wow wow wow! The questions Tom asks are just insanely good! One of the best interviews I’ve seen/heard.
I have tried other keto diet programs, but HyperKeto is the best. The customization features are really helpful, especially because I am a vegetarian. It also helps me to stick with the program and know exactly how much I need to eat on a daily basis.
What does that mean ? Sorry I never heard of that style of keto .🤔 just curious
Tom, you've had people on your show that promote a Keto lifestyle and others who are opponents of Keto. I know you've never done it before, however a panel of opponents and proponents would be great for a topic of discussion. Thanks for all that you do. You really have people thinking of ways to change their life!
sy DOUGLAS different strokes for different folks. Some people thrive on a carb diet.
@bronchoped1 I wouldn't know about that. I certainly don't.
Dom looks good for his age. Just found out he's 44 and looks miles better than than Durianrider (aged 40) who promotes a high sugar, zero fat diet.
Anecdotal non sense. Rich Roll is 10 years older and looks just as young. High carb my friend
Durianrider eats a lot of refined sugar. Obviously that isn't healthy so stick with fruit and potatoes (but don't drench them in oil).
byReZio sorry, but Rich Roll does not look even remotely as good as this guy🤦♀️. He looks good and fit for 51 absolutely, but he looks 51. My husband is the same age as Rich Roll, and also cycles as well as other athletic activities and he is just as fit as Rich. Cycling will do that to you. My husband is an omnivore....not Keto or Vegan. Rich has the typical 51 year old wrinkles in the face, and this guys face is super smooth and much younger looking. I find Rich is gaunt looking in the face.
NeilAC78 who the hell promotes a high sugar diet? Lol
@@justylex rich roll openly admits to a life of addiction and abuse of drugs. Wfpb changed his life. So if he doesn't look perfect to you at his current age, this could be a part of it. But to deny his positive results changing to a wfpb diet is silly.
I didn't need no Keto diet, that diet may cause some possible problems like liver, kidney and heart issues.....My story.....I'm a 63 year old man. I was 31% body fat, a BMI of 29..depressed and got out of breath quickly. My doc said I needed to change, or else..so, I first cut out sugar. When that happened, my depression virtually vanished...THAT is the best thing a person can do. I sweeten using Stevia, a healthy substitute. I upped my green intake a LOT, slowed WAY down on carbs, especially breads and most pastas. It's ok to indulge once in a while..Rice is OK, as long as the glycemic load is low, like basmati (medium) but black or wild rice is best. Very high in anti-oxidants.I made sure to check glycemic LOADS of foods, not the number. I QUIT DRINKING BEER, high in carbs and sugars....red wine is good for you I eat more plant based protein but still eat fish and chicken, hardly any red meat. I started weight training and I workout about 5 hours a week and moderate cardio. Lots of brisk walking. So, after about a year and a half, I have a BMI of 23.5 and a body fat % of 14, and I look REAL good...Like I said, the BEST thing is to quit sugar. That was a game changer for me.
That’s sweet because you can tell they really love their moms.
I started 9 months ago and lost almost 75 pounds . ...still 25 pounds to go .
I am 3 weeks into keto, and let me tell u, I already sleep so much better.
My energy is very low though.
Hope that will change soon.
And I totally agree. We are ALL human, different, but we all can make mistakes.
That s why I don t like to talk too much about being right or wrong in extreme ways. I prefer open wisdoms, and talk about until now we found out that this is so and so, but science, and also non science, should be open to adapt, improve the improved and accept that life is not a black or white, wrong right experience,
Yes some things are really red lines, those are to name, as very wrong, and there s such a right things, that should be kept forever, as they have brought us to today.
But all the rest should be about improving the improved.
I think.
Interesting interview. Wow
I love and crave fat! Cheese, eggs, avacado, mct oil, meat
