I've been keto/carnivore for 3 months. ALL my blood tests have come back norm. 3 months ago I was prediabetic. Best of all (to me), is that my emphysema has drastically improved. It would take me 45 minutes to walk to my nearest shop. I'd get there, sweating profusely and extremely out of breath. Now? I can MARCH there in 15 minutes and not be out of breath. OMG! The inflammation is banished 😁
long term, it's terrible for your cardiovascular system, plus killing all those sweet animals. My friend did it for years, boasted about his test results, and just had a heart attack. Fruit and veggies are good for you, meat not so much.
Thank you for that, 41 year old black american.. started gym sessions right before our recent plaque, because my body felt like it was dying. This video describes, everything my body was going through. 💪🏿Liked and Subscribed🦍
Hi Mike, I'm a 60 year old woman based in UK and I'd like to thank you for your content. We don't have access to any blood work or tests here so maintaining optimal health is even more important. I've been doing endurance training for some years now and I also do some strength work but very little nutritional advice is aimed at the older female athlete . Thanks in part to your content I have increased protein, cut down carbs without getting too carried away as I still need to fuel my workouts and cut out all highly processed foods including all sorts of 'sports' supplements. Without tests it's difficult to be sure of the effects of changes but my Garmin tells me I have the fitness level of a 21 year old!
@@igloozoo3771 Good carbs.....Fruits (in season) but very low amounts of....Raspberries are great. Sweet potato Millet (not too often as too much can affect the thyroid) Sorghum Those are my top 3 currently in no order.... Cruciferous vege to get your fibrous form of carbs as well..
Excellent lecture Mike because I’m a walking example of damage from Glycation. Maybe 20 years of damage. But because of you and people just like you willing to share, I am on the road to healing. I hope many take this talk seriously because leaning the hard way, like me, is not any fun at all. Thanks,
I fell down the stairs holding my baby at age 30. Really damaged my right foot. Lots of broken bones. Baby was fine as I fell with my body wrapped around her. By 42 that foot was really hurting. X-rays showed degenerative bone disease. Ever step was painful, and I averaged around 70 thousand steps a day at my job. I was told I would be in a wheelchair by 57. And to lose weight. At that point I had been starving myself fat on 1200 low fat, high fibre calories a day for about 22 years. When pregnant I upped it to 1600. Gained 80 pounds. Felt guilty for gaining weight and guilty for not eating as much as I was suppose to. When my husband had 3 strokes and we found out he was diabetic I put him on the diet they gave me at the hospital. Every 3 weeks both he and his blood work were worse. Went on for 8 months. Read Good Calories, Bad Calories. Watched The Oiling of America. Changed both of our diets to the old British diet in the prologue. His next bloodwork improved. Several months later a stranger understood him. I craved butter on the new diet and ate it non stop for the first several months. Still losing weight, so I went for it. I had years of starvation at that point. Then one day I was walking down the stairs and realized my foot did not hurt. That was 13 years ago. I am almost 65 and I can hop on that foot. I can also get dressed from a standing position. Rare at my age. I think the low carb, combined with something my body recognized it needed in the butter healed my foot.
Sweet. One thing I know about butter is that, especially in the spring time, it has a lot of vitamin K2 in it. Vitamin K2 is essential for directing calcium into the bones. It would be so interesting to me if that was part of why you craved butter and why you got your improvements.
@@bitrudder3792 Been taking K2 with my D3, but the MK7 type since I rarely have fermented foods. Had no idea butter had K2 (assuming MK4 type). I have been using butter and olive oil and no margerine anymore and really watching the seed oils. With keto I already have less inflammation, and this makes me feel even better about my butter use.
I think what's even more important is spiritual factors. If your soul is sick your body will follow, no matter how good your diet and exercise program are. If you work a job you hate and you don't follow your dreams/passions, this will literally suck the life out of you. Take a look at people who did what they really wanted to in life and how great they look, they are eternally youthful. Definitely stay away from processed foods loaded with sugar, keep your body strong, eat a wholefood diet, but also don't work a job that doesn't bring meaning into your life.
I know personally if I cheat and eat some sweets or something I feel it in my joints the next day, big time, and it stays for as long as I eat that way. It's crazy. If I eat clean I almost have no pains at all.
People need to embrace a "health span" vs a "lifespan". (Also, LOVE the electrolyte stix! I've ordered 7 boxes now to stock up for the spring to fall and I tell everyone I workout with about them!)
Went to a Specialists 33 years ago and he suggested to be refined Sugar free due to High Blood Sugar Levels even though I was training a heap. He stated that I would be a Diabetic by the time I'm 50. I took his advice and am very happy
I just turned,69. Look like in the 40s. Can never order senior meals without showing ID, chasing away at senior swimming pool hour, people pulled my hair to see if I am wearing a wig. My rules are , 2 hours daily walk, everyday IF 16/8, cooking daily meals with a lean nutritious foods. My only issue, going to bed after 3 am daily. The longer staying up at night the funnier life is. I aged but life continues....... So, Mike, any advice to correct my sleep pattern? My biggest struggle, not insomnia, I sleep quickly once in bed but the timing. A million thanks to you
Get up at sunrise and look into the sun. Open your eyes wide to get full spectrum. This will help with your circadian rhythm, and get it back in line. Blue light glasses after dark help, too.
Ok I’m 70 in approximately 26 months and since being on my 5th year of keto/IF myPCP is shocked & still doesn’t understand what I’m doing. Got off ALL 17Rx 4 years now. This video is somewhat helpful since I can’t go back to 40 years old so I pay attention to what is possible now and try to make it realistic for what I CAN do. Going to ck out the unused gym in my apartment complex for a stationary bike and treadmill & hours available. I’m ready for the next step!
I was always a very active person . After my first son, my thyroid was off didn’t know at the time what was happening to me. Hospitalized for it,so bad . An that was the start of my journey with weight loss struggles. It’s to bad I didn’t have all this information years ago. I started the fasting I’m up to 20hr , eating foods with No BAR CODES ! Have had a 30 lb loss over a year , sticking with this new lifestyle. I can relate to much of what he described. Trouble with joints , ruptures , with knees . I’ll be looking into his recommendations . At 65 you need all the help you can get to keep moving . I’m not going to stop moving even if I have achy days ! Thanks for the info, very helpful !
Lost all hair about 15 years past. Lost most energy 7 years past. Researched extensively and figured this was just genetic predestination. Low carb OMAD and fasting helps my energy improve. But since the hair loss I made a 'recipe' for greater collagen synthesis ie. when eating protein I eat it along side vit C and sulphur rich foods in same gut load. I'm 62 yrs, folk often tell me how lovely my skin is....so i reckon I am doing something right. Thank you for the pep talk Mike. I MUST really do that 10 minute walk after my meal. Followed you for 7 years now, your knowledge has really helped me. Thanks m'dear.🌞
Hair transplantation in Turkey is pretty reasonable cheap. I have read a long time ago the Vitamin B 'PABA' can reduce hair loss, but it was also stated once it is lost you can not get it back with higher / sufficient PABA levels in your diet or supplementation.
@@andyrandy0815 Interestingly, each Summer🌞🌞🌞 I get miniscule growth over most of my scalp! B Vits, Nettles and MSM Powder can help some folk if its a patchy loss. Mine all fell out within 2 months start to finish. Thankfully i have broad shoulders and a beautiful smile🤣👍. Thanks for the reply. 🥰
Sugar is not a treat, neither for adults and children. It kills the body slowly. I walk during fasting, and after every meal to slow down my blood sugar. It really helps improving my vision and digestive also to reach autophagy faster. All your videos are very informative. Thank you Mike
I have high blood sugar but I take lots of vitamin C to counteract the negative effects. My skin is great my hair is great and my nails won't stop growing.
I looked 15 years younger on a raw vegan diet. I looked 15 years younger on a keto diet. The moment I'm having too many carbs or refined carbs wrinkles appear. Raw vegan was not sustainable. The best of both worlds for me is eating proteins + fats + veggies at all times. Only one meal with carbs + proteins + fruit after working out in the morning and I feel great for the rest of the day.
Raw vegan helps you clear all the waste and chemicals and parasites away so you can rebuild with complex proteins balanced later! Most people can't do this because they are filled up lymphaticalltly with waste and unprocessed chemicals and food. Water fasting activates stem cells and that's the real root cause regeneration. People abuse carnivore and vegan way too hard and don't do enough research and end up doing damage. And they also don't look at their genes and tailor their daily intake to that. Or pay attention to their microbiome. The problem is people trying to eat meat and dairy on an already acidic and backed up body, and then they go 180 and don't address the previous gland issues and vice versa for vegan people and grains and beans. Eliminating foods, suppressing glands, and losing rapid weight is not true healing. I am one of those who cannot digest grains and beans based on genetics. But also, couldn't eat meat yet, cause I needed to deeply detox first.
This video is eye opening for me. I’m one of those guys that has taken in a ton of information on blood sugar, keto, carnivore, testosterone, and all things optimizing health, yet still eats way too much garbage. I’ve got a ton of weight to lose and you know what I’ve been dealing with for that last month or two? Pain in my heal/achilles area. The only thing I can think of that possibly aggravated that area was when I was doing step ups in my routine for several months prior. And then I came upon this video. I need to get my eating under control! 😳
OMG !!!!!! You are Genius !!!! Why aren’t ANYONE ELSE speaking in this ? I was asking myself this because my Fiance’ is Diabetic and he’s losing hair, but his skin and nails look as if he’s not even have this disease, weird but good. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE KEEP RESEARCHING THIS ! THANK U 🙏
I am doing all I can to stay healthy. These were good tips. I am going to order Berberine. I heard on a podcast that walking is important and the guy suggested parking a few blocks from where you work. I now park 6 minutes from my job. I am forced to walk right after work. I am not sure if my blood sugar has gone down, but I hope all the little things I do make a difference. It seems my blood sugars remain high no matter what I do. I won't give up.
Another terrific video Mike, so full of data that one cannot ignore. I’m an MT & esthetician and skin care is huge yet most focus externally and topically rather than on what they’re eating. It’s not a discipline many have nor achieve sadly. Went keto 4 years ago and it’s helped me look younger, along with exercise and when I eat, I ask myself is this advancing my health? Long term form and function is a top value for me. I do fall off occasionally, feel the effects for days, then back to healthy eating. Appreciate you efforts and love your channel. Thank you. PS: Sent this to a few people.
Thanks Mike. I am working with a lot of seniors and I am amazed at how many people have had knee and hip surgery. In the early 1900's osteoarthritis virtually didn't exist. What is the cause of osteoarthritis and all the joint surgeries? Would love it if you had an answer to this one.
The answer: K2 deficiency. Look at what foods are the main source: grass-fed animal fats. If you are low fat, grain fed animal eating or even low meat your bone health will degrade due to k2 deficiency. Look up the book Calcium Paradox if you want the answers.
I grew up very heavy. Most of my adult life I have low carbed. Lots of folks don't believe me when I tell them my age I still follow this diet and I add fasting to it also I still have bull crap to eat but it's usually once every week or two You have to have balance That's the key to anything
Great information! So many reasons to NOT have a high carb diet. I just restarted keto again last week and I'm totally on board for this! My hair and skin have been so dry. I'm hoping it helps reducing my carbs. Part of it is also my water in my city though as it's "hard" water and dries everything out.
Humans evolved on less than pure water sometimes highly alkaline water. The small amount of minerals in hard water won't hurt you. My local water is soft so I add aussie minerals to each glass I drink.
I wasn't even particularly metabolically unwell. My drs certainly weren't paying attention to that issue. Yet getting metabolically well has helped my connective tissue disease (hEDS) and all the autoimmune, neuro, gastric, psychiatric, etc, issues it inevitably implies. Good luck getting well from POTS, especially (and its cousin Long-Haul Covid, I betcha), and/or MCAS, with either hyper or hypo blood sugar. There's no way to defeat chronic fatigue on sugar. But this information is encouraging and could indicate that my whole foods, low-carb, animal-based diet and healthy lifestyle may be aiding my unstable joints, too, and helping me avoid the progression of my underlying defective collagen. WOOT.
My metabolism has been a mess in the last 15 years, but my A1C is always 4.6, I only eat what I make from scratch, no oils, no processed meat. But ever increasing Intolerance to Salicylates. Lots of mouth burning, gum, throat and nasal swelling. It was becoming life threatening with things as simple as mint and cherries. I recently realized the center of the swelling and burning was one tooth, with a metal core crown on it. I went to a biologic dentist who ran a lot of test. Turned out that crowned tooth had so much chronic infection it ate through the bone and was deep into the sinus. Within 15 minutes of the tooth extraction the feeling of marbles in my nasal septum was gone. Two weeks after I'm able to eat fruits and veggies again!
Another great video Mike! Thank you! ❤️ I watched this video with my 8 and 10 year old. Please make more videos like this that kids can watch/ listen to and understand the importance of a healthy diet and why processed simple sugar is so bad for us and talk about ways to implement healthy habits. Also please give us ideas of healthy snacks for kids to bring to school, summer camps etc. Thank you for all you do! I have followed you for years and consume some of your products! 👌👍🙏
Thank you for sharing this important information. It is extremely helpful. You just give us the reasons to eat real foods and stop killing ourselves by eating all the readily available processed foods. I share your information with my family trying to encourage them why they should eat real foods and stop eating this junk food.
Thanks Mike, this is great! I've followed your channel for a long time and your always keeping up with my own direction in health! After trying keto I got super interested in collagen, hydration, and circulation, and I'm super pumped stuff is surfacing about these things now! So this content is super appreciated!!! Right now I'm working on figuring out how to keep the body hydrated and lubricated, and carbs weird role in all of it. So much to learn!
Hi Mike! I love your channel and the great info you share. Thank you! I’d so love to get your input on my A1C. It went from 5.4 (was that way for years) to 5.6!! I’m a 53 year old female, BMI of 21, low BP, I’m physically active on a daily bases (hiking, yoga, push-ups), I focus on lots of vegetables and local, good quality meats. The only reason I could think of is maybe my cortisol levels have been too high (I’m finishing a masters in nursing program, very intense!) and also, I’ve been eating about 1/3 cup yogurt that we make at home from grass fed cows, with lots of fruit in it (I’ve cut that out now!) I’m just kind of blown away by this new number! It’s hard to believe that it could be so high with the way I eat! Imagine if I ate sweets every day like so many others! I’d greatly appreciate any input you have!
Not sure I’ve had this specific test in my panels run before. I’ve had glucose, but it lists different ranges. Will ask for this in the future. How do you make your kefir/yogurt? Are there different tests we should be having when older than 50? Agree on the strength training and veggies
Wow, I was struck by what Mike said at 1:56. He said, "It weakens the tendons and makes them more calcified." At 52, I tore my Gastrocnemius muscle away from my Achilles tendon. I was playing racquetball like I had for the past 15 years and suddenly, I felt like I had been whacked in the calf muscle. My Sports Medicine doctors had no explanation as to why this happened. I was told by one doctor to "be less competitive and let those shots go instead of lunging for the ball." Well, suffice it to say, this did not sit well with me. I was 52, not 92!!! Anyway, after reading Dr. Carolyn Dean's book, The Magnesium Miracle, I came to believe that maybe my muscles and tendons were too calcified due to a lack of magnesium and an abundance of calcium. Adequate magnesium will keep too much calcium out of the tissues of the body. My A1C has always been tested at just below the Pre-Diabetes range, so I never worried too much about it. In addition to taking magnesium, I am going to do more to control those blood sugar spikes. Jessie Inchauspe's new book, The Glucose Revolution has a lot of great tips along those lines. I just need to use what I have learned here and from others to avoid the processed foods.
Great video Mike… I’m 47, supplement collagen, creatine and zinc. I feel my tendons now more than when I was younger, in fact I don’t recall feeling when younger. Anyway, present well and get plenty of comments on my physique and skin, so I guess I’m doing something right. Love your channel mate.
Great video. There are some additional things are helpful to know on this topic. My understanding is that the science shows that high blood sugar and also red meat shut off an enzyme system that creates the protein carnosine. You can supplement with carnosine as a way to block Advanced glycation end products, collagen cross-linking being one of the various types of advanced glycation end products. I'm skinny and struggle to keep weight on my body so I have to really keep on top of my carbs and I can't always be active after eating a meal with a fair amount of carbohydrates. And I have found I just feel better if I have a good amount of healthy carbs in my diet. However, my Fast Metabolism seems to need carbs more than the average person. I have found carnosine to be a great tool to use rhythmically as needed
Amazing content as always. What's even more important is assisting people with the idea that it would be irrelevant to purchase Collagen if you are eating terribly
I really agree with this … the problem is that most people will have high insulin for 15 years or so before there blood sugars are picked up!…. This has to change … the damage is being done whilst the insulin is high…. When the blood sugars are super unstable you have already done so much damage …. Request fasting insulin bloods!… HBA1c is good but only at picking up blood sugars over long term … won’t pick up hyper insulinanemia ..
I am a personal trainer and I work in a physical therapist office we get physical therapy patients with blown Achilles that makes a lot of sense now and some of the patients have come from other personal trainers where they blew out their Achilles while trying to exercise now I understand why and trying to develop an exercise program for diabetics that preserve those Achilles
Thanks for the feedback. I'm 52 years young, have my own personal yoga and breathing practice and sleep well, as well practicing mindful eating. I work at the airport doing physical labor, picking up over 100 bags a day and just physically active. While never easy in my working lifestyle, I am practicing mindful eating - eating just a meal a day and my sugar intake has reduced so much. Anyway, What are your thoughts on Dr. Josh Axe's products, especially his bone broth collagen powder. Thank you.
Does eating collagen actually help grow collagen? It seems like when it’s broken down to be digested it would not reform as collagen but I don’t really know.
Very timely content for me - recovering from surgery on my third tendon rupture ( I am very active at my age). What's interesting to me is that since mid-Jan I've been nearly full carnivore, had the best lipid results of my life (May) and can see results in skin. However, my tendons feel like they are worse off (ruptured the right triceps tendon and left one is feeling similar/tearing). Will have to dig further into glycation causes, since at least for me A1c has always been in the good range, but my whole family is at some level type 2 diabetic.
Are you eating organ meats? Muscle meats are much higher in zinc than organ meats, which depletes you of copper. Copper is essential for collagen. My friend was supplementing zinc and it was making her joints worse. As soon as she stopped (and also started taking a trace minerals with 2mg copper) the trouble she was having resolved itself. I highly recommend the book The Mineral Fix, it's really opened my eyes to proper ratios, etc.
@@Moses-ef6mu some and taking liver/thymus supplements. I was taking a lot of zinc to help with DOMS and sleep, and just ran into the same info you mention. Started adding in copper and am planning to get levels tested to check into any major issues. Thanks for the confirmation - I know that did play some part in this.
I was told back in the 70s that I would never have children by 3 different doctors. Non explained why. But I realize it was PCOS now. Told my husband before getting married. Like all brides I wanted to be lovely on our wedding day. So I went on the evil, Atkins diet. Kept on it after the marriage. At least until I was pregnant. Then switch back to the so called healthy eating guidelines. Many years later I went on the evil Atkins diet again. Was working great until I got pregnant again. Went back to the healthy diet guidelines again. Gained 80 pounds on 1600 low fat, high fibre calories a day. Knowing what I know now, I would have stuck with the evil Atkins diet. So much healthier. I have the eating guidelines for pregnant women used in the late 40s, early 50s in Canada. Nursing textbook. Meat, fish, poultry, eggs, cheese. Liver at least once a week. Cheese at least 3 times a week. At least one egg every day. 4 glasses of milk 1 green and 1 yellow vegetable with butter 1 small green salad 2 fruit, one citrus. May be tomatoe 1 serving whole grain cereal for breakfast 1 slice whole grain bread for lunch with butter 1 small potatoe for supper If you put on too much poundage, remove the grains. They understand carbohydrates back in the 50s. Women did not gain 80 pounds while starving. My oldest inherited the PCOS from me. If I could go back in time, There would be a lot more eggs, meat, etc, in her diet and way less grains. But I was following the Death Canada food guidelines. Like the food pyramid, based on Adventist cult agenda and not real science.
Dr. Mark Hyman,here on the tube, has a podcast video on PCOS. The discussion stated it’s inflammatory due to a high carb/high sugar diet. He actually has a couple of videos on the topic.
If we go low/zero carb with healthy animal fats, and prevent hyperglycemia/hyperinsulinemia, and we get no disease, what is going to kill us eventually? Serious question. Is it damage due to glycation anyway? Oxidation?
Carbs are important. As it's the primary fuel for energy and it's what bind water in our cells. Notice that if we have low carbs, it will lower our weight. Weight is not only fat. There are organs and muscles too that need energy & water. Idk about fats, ima search later. But energy from proteins are converted in kidney. It will damage our kidney if we want to fuel our energy from proteins.
I exercise daily. I am a runner🏃♀. I exercise while fasting, which I generally fast 12-16 hrs. A day. But I eat my meal at night before bed. I don’t typically eat meat or heavy protein bc it weighs me down. I do eat a lot of almonds, lean fish a couple times a week, avocados daily and lots of grapes, watermelon, papaya, cantaloupe AT NIGHT after midnight before bed. I wonder if this is been affecting my blood sugar. I have been experiencing osteopenia & joint pain lately.
Great video. Unfortunately for me I was a sugar junkie begore I was aware. I'm now in my late 50s and my skin is horribly wrinkled. I'd like to know if collagen damage can be repaired. And what those steps would be.
Exactly what happened to me-ruptured Achilles with surgery on one leg, then upper tear on other leg 2 years later.. I lift heavy hike, etc, not obese, just strong dad bod kinda, mid 40s, but I eat too much sugar and carbs. I can't burn them the way I did playing football or track in the past. Absolutely believe I'm pre diabetic so making changes already. All my injuries are tendon the last few years so this all makes sense. Change now!
Im SO GLAD that you said people with 'hyperglycemia' - this does not apply to healthy people, with normal blood sugars. (witch are most people). I eat a lot of processed foods, and 200-300g carbs a day. And my HbA1c is 4 years in a row 5,7 (EU) - perfectly normal - mostly because i have normal weight. Small changes in bloodsugar (when eating, carbs or protein), does not cause problems in long term.
That's why Paul Saladino's skin looks rough. He needs to eat the meat and yogurt separately from the honey and fruit. He is teaching people to eat all these together. Food combining can be deadly and it weakens your pancreatic cells. I've seen people who eat mono meals and they look amazingly hydrated!!
Love you Mike, you Rock. I just want to say how much I Miss the 70’s and 80’s. Some of these problems did not seem to exist back then. Oh well, I guess that’s how the world crumbles.
I am 33 now but often get mistaken for being somewhere in my early to mid 20s. Now it could be said that because I don’t have a lot of facial hair That people can’t necessarily guess my age readily( I mean I’m not old), However I watched a PBS special about 18 years ago when I was in the throes of dealing with acne. some European female doctor was mentioning AGEs and selling her facial products but also a diet to prevent the glycation process. I say this to say that people always ask me why I chose sugar-free from the age of 15 and it was because I was dealing with skin problems and didn’t want to prematurely age already damaged skin
Another great video Mike. I always learn do much and get motivation when I take time to listen. 😉
I've been keto/carnivore for 3 months. ALL my blood tests have come back norm. 3 months ago I was prediabetic. Best of all (to me), is that my emphysema has drastically improved. It would take me 45 minutes to walk to my nearest shop. I'd get there, sweating profusely and extremely out of breath. Now? I can MARCH there in 15 minutes and not be out of breath. OMG! The inflammation is banished 😁
Awesome results! 👍
Stick with it. You are doing great.
That’s super exciting! 👏👏
It's because you're in calorie defisit... Not because the keto.
long term, it's terrible for your cardiovascular system, plus killing all those sweet animals. My friend did it for years, boasted about his test results, and just had a heart attack. Fruit and veggies are good for you, meat not so much.
Same overall theme: stay away from highly processed foods, limit the number of times you eat in a day and exercise
Yes, no matter how many videos and podcasts I see, it boils down to the same advice. resistance training , no processed foods and walk.
Thank you for that, 41 year old black american.. started gym sessions right before our recent plaque, because my body felt like it was dying. This video describes, everything my body was going through. 💪🏿Liked and Subscribed🦍

Medi checks is pretty good. Expensive though, £120 every 4 months or so is pretty expensive for me.
Btw, thats UK
@@davidpowell3469 But what do you consider to be good carbs? Some talk about resistant starches while others talk about fruits and honey.
@@igloozoo3771 Good carbs.....Fruits (in season) but very low amounts of....Raspberries are great.
Sweet potato
Millet (not too often as too much can affect the thyroid)

Those are my top 3 currently in no order....
Cruciferous vege to get your fibrous form of carbs as well..
Excellent lecture Mike because I’m a walking example of damage from Glycation. Maybe 20 years of damage. But because of you and people just like you willing to share, I am on the road to healing.
I hope many take this talk seriously because leaning the hard way, like me, is not any fun at all.

Thank you for this advice, much appreciated 🙏
I fell down the stairs holding my baby at age 30. Really damaged my right foot. Lots of broken bones. Baby was fine as I fell with my body wrapped around her.
By 42 that foot was really hurting. X-rays showed degenerative bone disease. Ever step was painful, and I averaged around 70 thousand steps a day at my job. I was told I would be in a wheelchair by 57. And to lose weight.
At that point I had been starving myself fat on 1200 low fat, high fibre calories a day for about 22 years. When pregnant I upped it to 1600. Gained 80 pounds. Felt guilty for gaining weight and guilty for not eating as much as I was suppose to.
When my husband had 3 strokes and we found out he was diabetic I put him on the diet they gave me at the hospital. Every 3 weeks both he and his blood work were worse. Went on for 8 months.
Read Good Calories, Bad Calories. Watched The Oiling of America. Changed both of our diets to the old British diet in the prologue. His next bloodwork improved. Several months later a stranger understood him.
I craved butter on the new diet and ate it non stop for the first several months. Still losing weight, so I went for it. I had years of starvation at that point. Then one day I was walking down the stairs and realized my foot did not hurt. That was 13 years ago. I am almost 65 and I can hop on that foot. I can also get dressed from a standing position. Rare at my age.
I think the low carb, combined with something my body recognized it needed in the butter healed my foot.
That's awesome! Food IS our medicine. We CAN heal ourselves. Thank you for sharing your experience.
Glad you found the way to your health!!
Great story! Truly inspiring! Thank you for taking the time to share!
Sweet. One thing I know about butter is that, especially in the spring time, it has a lot of vitamin K2 in it. Vitamin K2 is essential for directing calcium into the bones. It would be so interesting to me if that was part of why you craved butter and why you got your improvements.
@@bitrudder3792 Been taking K2 with my D3, but the MK7 type since I rarely have fermented foods. Had no idea butter had K2 (assuming MK4 type). I have been using butter and olive oil and no margerine anymore and really watching the seed oils. With keto I already have less inflammation, and this makes me feel even better about my butter use.
I think what's even more important is spiritual factors. If your soul is sick your body will follow, no matter how good your diet and exercise program are. If you work a job you hate and you don't follow your dreams/passions, this will literally suck the life out of you. Take a look at people who did what they really wanted to in life and how great they look, they are eternally youthful. Definitely stay away from processed foods loaded with sugar, keep your body strong, eat a wholefood diet, but also don't work a job that doesn't bring meaning into your life.
I know personally if I cheat and eat some sweets or something I feel it in my joints the next day, big time, and it stays for as long as I eat that way. It's crazy. If I eat clean I almost have no pains at all.
People need to embrace a "health span" vs a "lifespan". (Also, LOVE the electrolyte stix! I've ordered 7 boxes now to stock up for the spring to fall and I tell everyone I workout with about them!)
I’ve been listening to all kinds of Health Gurus since the 1970s , Mike is absolutely awesome at teaching Health Maintenance ! Thank you Mike !
Went to a Specialists 33 years ago and he suggested to be refined Sugar free due to High Blood Sugar Levels even though I was training a heap. He stated that I would be a Diabetic by the time I'm 50. I took his advice and am very happy
If thick healthy looking hair is a sign of overall health then I think I'm the healthiest person on Earth.
Same issue here
I guess all asian and Latinos are healthy then?!😲
My three hairs I have on my head are nice, thick and shiny!
I just turned,69. Look like in the 40s. Can never order senior meals without showing ID, chasing away at senior swimming pool hour, people pulled my hair to see if I am wearing a wig. My rules are , 2 hours daily walk, everyday IF 16/8, cooking daily meals with a lean nutritious foods. My only issue, going to bed after 3 am daily. The longer staying up at night the funnier life is. I aged but life continues.......
So, Mike, any advice to correct my sleep pattern? My biggest struggle, not insomnia, I sleep quickly once in bed but the timing.
A million thanks to you
Get up at sunrise and look into the sun. Open your eyes wide to get full spectrum. This will help with your circadian rhythm, and get it back in line. Blue light glasses after dark help, too.
@@energeticsoulhealer888 thank you. Will do it
Don't change what seems to be working and keeping you young and having fun
Up up your vit d levels
Time management.
Ok I’m 70 in approximately 26 months and since being on my 5th year of keto/IF myPCP is shocked & still doesn’t understand what I’m doing. Got off ALL 17Rx 4 years now.
This video is somewhat helpful since I can’t go back to 40 years old so I pay attention to what is possible now and try to make it realistic for what I CAN do. Going to ck out the unused gym in my apartment complex for a stationary bike and treadmill & hours available. I’m ready for the next step!
Torn tendons take a long time to heal when you're grain carbed. Keto/carni restored elasticity and mobility.
Try Calc Fluor.
I was always a very active person . After my first son, my thyroid was off didn’t know at the time what was happening to me. Hospitalized for it,so bad . An that was the start of my journey with weight loss struggles. It’s to bad I didn’t have all this information years ago. I started the fasting I’m up to 20hr , eating foods with No BAR CODES ! Have had a 30 lb loss over a year , sticking with this new lifestyle. I can relate to much of what he described. Trouble with joints , ruptures , with knees . I’ll be looking into his recommendations . At 65 you need all the help you can get to keep moving . I’m not going to stop moving even if I have achy days ! Thanks for the info, very helpful !
Lost all hair about 15 years past. Lost most energy 7 years past. Researched extensively and figured this was just genetic predestination. Low carb OMAD and fasting helps my energy improve. But since the hair loss I made a 'recipe' for greater collagen synthesis ie. when eating protein I eat it along side vit C and sulphur rich foods in same gut load. I'm 62 yrs, folk often tell me how lovely my skin is....so i reckon I am doing something right. Thank you for the pep talk Mike. I MUST really do that 10 minute walk after my meal. Followed you for 7 years now, your knowledge has really helped me. Thanks m'dear.🌞
Hair transplantation in Turkey is pretty reasonable cheap. I have read a long time ago the Vitamin B 'PABA' can reduce hair loss, but it was also stated once it is lost you can not get it back with higher / sufficient PABA levels in your diet or supplementation.
@@andyrandy0815 Interestingly, each Summer🌞🌞🌞 I get miniscule growth over most of my scalp! B Vits, Nettles and MSM Powder can help some folk if its a patchy loss. Mine all fell out within 2 months start to finish. Thankfully i have broad shoulders and a beautiful smile🤣👍. Thanks for the reply. 🥰
@@moiragoldsmith7052A beautiful smile for the win!! What a difference a smile makes 😁
Sugar is not a treat, neither for adults and children. It kills the body slowly.
I walk during fasting, and after every meal to slow down my blood sugar. It really helps improving my vision and digestive also to reach autophagy faster.
All your videos are very informative.
Thank you Mike
I have high blood sugar but I take lots of vitamin C to counteract the negative effects. My skin is great my hair is great and my nails won't stop growing.
I looked 15 years younger on a raw vegan diet.
I looked 15 years younger on a keto diet.
The moment I'm having too many carbs or refined carbs wrinkles appear.
Raw vegan was not sustainable. The best of both worlds for me is eating proteins + fats + veggies at all times. Only one meal with carbs + proteins + fruit after working out in the morning and I feel great for the rest of the day.
Raw vegan helps you clear all the waste and chemicals and parasites away so you can rebuild with complex proteins balanced later! Most people can't do this because they are filled up lymphaticalltly with waste and unprocessed chemicals and food. Water fasting activates stem cells and that's the real root cause regeneration. People abuse carnivore and vegan way too hard and don't do enough research and end up doing damage. And they also don't look at their genes and tailor their daily intake to that. Or pay attention to their microbiome. The problem is people trying to eat meat and dairy on an already acidic and backed up body, and then they go 180 and don't address the previous gland issues and vice versa for vegan people and grains and beans. Eliminating foods, suppressing glands, and losing rapid weight is not true healing. I am one of those who cannot digest grains and beans based on genetics. But also, couldn't eat meat yet, cause I needed to deeply detox first.
This video is eye opening for me. I’m one of those guys that has taken in a ton of information on blood sugar, keto, carnivore, testosterone, and all things optimizing health, yet still eats way too much garbage. I’ve got a ton of weight to lose and you know what I’ve been dealing with for that last month or two? Pain in my heal/achilles area. The only thing I can think of that possibly aggravated that area was when I was doing step ups in my routine for several months prior. And then I came upon this video. I need to get my eating under control! 😳
OMG !!!!!! You are Genius !!!! Why aren’t ANYONE ELSE speaking in this ? I was asking myself this because my Fiance’ is Diabetic and he’s losing hair, but his skin and nails look as if he’s not even have this disease, weird but good. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE KEEP RESEARCHING THIS ! THANK U 🙏
I am doing all I can to stay healthy. These were good tips. I am going to order Berberine. I heard on a podcast that walking is important and the guy suggested parking a few blocks from where you work. I now park 6 minutes from my job. I am forced to walk right after work. I am not sure if my blood sugar has gone down, but I hope all the little things I do make a difference. It seems my blood sugars remain high no matter what I do. I won't give up.
Another terrific video Mike, so full of data that one cannot ignore. I’m an MT & esthetician and skin care is huge yet most focus externally and topically rather than on what they’re eating. It’s not a discipline many have nor achieve sadly.
Went keto 4 years ago and it’s helped me look younger, along with exercise and when I eat, I ask myself is this advancing my health? Long term form and function is a top value for me. I do fall off occasionally, feel the effects for days, then back to healthy eating. Appreciate you efforts and love your channel. Thank you. PS: Sent this to a few people.
Thanks Mike. I am working with a lot of seniors and I am amazed at how many people have had knee and hip surgery. In the early 1900's osteoarthritis virtually didn't exist. What is the cause of osteoarthritis and all the joint surgeries?
Would love it if you had an answer to this one.
The answer: K2 deficiency. Look at what foods are the main source: grass-fed animal fats. If you are low fat, grain fed animal eating or even low meat your bone health will degrade due to k2 deficiency. Look up the book Calcium Paradox if you want the answers.
Surprised you had not made the connection. I notice that every time I do a one-day fast, my skin looks younger
I grew up very heavy. Most of my adult life I have low carbed. Lots of folks don't believe me when I tell them my age
I still follow this diet and I add fasting to it also
I still have bull crap to eat but it's usually once every week or two
You have to have balance
That's the key to anything
Haven’t seen your content in a while but man it’s so jam packed it’s like a matrix download! Keep it up 🙌🏼
Heck yeah!!
Thank you for your video. I'm an aging type 1 diabetic and learned new info!
Great information! So many reasons to NOT have a high carb diet. I just restarted keto again last week and I'm totally on board for this! My hair and skin have been so dry. I'm hoping it helps reducing my carbs. Part of it is also my water in my city though as it's "hard" water and dries everything out.
Humans evolved on less than pure water sometimes highly alkaline water. The small amount of minerals in hard water won't hurt you. My local water is soft so I add aussie minerals to each glass I drink.
I wasn't even particularly metabolically unwell. My drs certainly weren't paying attention to that issue. Yet getting metabolically well has helped my connective tissue disease (hEDS) and all the autoimmune, neuro, gastric, psychiatric, etc, issues it inevitably implies. Good luck getting well from POTS, especially (and its cousin Long-Haul Covid, I betcha), and/or MCAS, with either hyper or hypo blood sugar. There's no way to defeat chronic fatigue on sugar. But this information is encouraging and could indicate that my whole foods, low-carb, animal-based diet and healthy lifestyle may be aiding my unstable joints, too, and helping me avoid the progression of my underlying defective collagen. WOOT.
I also have hypermobile EDS. A meat based diet has also done wonders for me. I'm so happy we are both feeling so much better.
@@cthornton523 I'm so thrilled to hear that. Thanks for sharing!
Fermented vegetables= less oxcylates & lectins + post meal walking+ grounding, feast/famine cycling; if older HMB to help build muscle 💪🏼 again.
Try Carnosine to prevent glycification, Jon Barron has article in depth on the subject. Also, Vitamin K2 to take calcium to your bones.
My metabolism has been a mess in the last 15 years, but my A1C is always 4.6, I only eat what I make from scratch, no oils, no processed meat.
But ever increasing Intolerance to Salicylates. Lots of mouth burning, gum, throat and nasal swelling. It was becoming life threatening with things as simple as mint and cherries. I recently realized the center of the swelling and burning was one tooth, with a metal core crown on it. I went to a biologic dentist who ran a lot of test. Turned out that crowned tooth had so much chronic infection it ate through the bone and was deep into the sinus.
Within 15 minutes of the tooth extraction the feeling of marbles in my nasal septum was gone. Two weeks after I'm able to eat fruits and veggies again!
Awesome!!
Another great video Mike! Thank you! ❤️
I watched this video with my 8 and 10 year old. Please make more videos like this that kids can watch/ listen to and understand the importance of a healthy diet and why processed simple sugar is so bad for us and talk about ways to implement healthy habits. Also please give us ideas of healthy snacks for kids to bring to school, summer camps etc. Thank you for all you do! I have followed you for years and consume some of your products! 👌👍🙏
Thank you for sharing this important information. It is extremely helpful. You just give us the reasons to eat real foods and stop killing ourselves by eating all the readily available processed foods. I share your information with my family trying to encourage them why they should eat real foods and stop eating this junk food.
Thanks Mike, this is great! I've followed your channel for a long time and your always keeping up with my own direction in health! After trying keto I got super interested in collagen, hydration, and circulation, and I'm super pumped stuff is surfacing about these things now! So this content is super appreciated!!! Right now I'm working on figuring out how to keep the body hydrated and lubricated, and carbs weird role in all of it. So much to learn!
Very helpful topic. You just highlighted an additional interesting reason that encourage people to take care of their blood sugar
Great video, collagen/anti aging based videos are my favourite because it’s so preventable
My skin already looking weird and I never thought that it could because my blood sugar a1c went from 5.7 to 8.0…..
Very interesting elation ship between collagen and Achilles tendon and joint pain!! thank you, Mike!
Totally agree that when you lose the weight & improve your diet, the pain from exercise goes away. Food is fuel, not fun.
Hi Mike! I love your channel and the great info you share. Thank you! I’d so love to get your input on my A1C. It went from 5.4 (was that way for years) to 5.6!! I’m a 53 year old female, BMI of 21, low BP, I’m physically active on a daily bases (hiking, yoga, push-ups), I focus on lots of vegetables and local, good quality meats. The only reason I could think of is maybe my cortisol levels have been too high (I’m finishing a masters in nursing program, very intense!) and also, I’ve been eating about 1/3 cup yogurt that we make at home from grass fed cows, with lots of fruit in it (I’ve cut that out now!) I’m just kind of blown away by this new number! It’s hard to believe that it could be so high with the way I eat! Imagine if I ate sweets every day like so many others!
I’d greatly appreciate any input you have!
Your A1C is still normal. You might like to look into eating more greens though based on your age, you may be perimenopausal or menopausal by now.
Kefir spinach and weightlifting QD is good for meanopausal women like us
Not sure I’ve had this specific test in my panels run before. I’ve had glucose, but it lists different ranges. Will ask for this in the future. How do you make your kefir/yogurt? Are there different tests we should be having when older than 50? Agree on the strength training and veggies
Wow, I was struck by what Mike said at 1:56. He said, "It weakens the tendons and makes them more calcified." At 52, I tore my Gastrocnemius muscle away from my Achilles tendon. I was playing racquetball like I had for the past 15 years and suddenly, I felt like I had been whacked in the calf muscle. My Sports Medicine doctors had no explanation as to why this happened. I was told by one doctor to "be less competitive and let those shots go instead of lunging for the ball." Well, suffice it to say, this did not sit well with me. I was 52, not 92!!! Anyway, after reading Dr. Carolyn Dean's book, The Magnesium Miracle, I came to believe that maybe my muscles and tendons were too calcified due to a lack of magnesium and an abundance of calcium. Adequate magnesium will keep too much calcium out of the tissues of the body. My A1C has always been tested at just below the Pre-Diabetes range, so I never worried too much about it. In addition to taking magnesium, I am going to do more to control those blood sugar spikes. Jessie Inchauspe's new book, The Glucose Revolution has a lot of great tips along those lines. I just need to use what I have learned here and from others to avoid the processed foods.
Can you share any of the tips in the Glucose Revolution book?
This was really helpful and concise, I took notes. I appreciate the length of this video, I don't have time to watch long videos. Thank you!
Great video Mike… I’m 47, supplement collagen, creatine and zinc. I feel my tendons now more than when I was younger, in fact I don’t recall feeling when younger. Anyway, present well and get plenty of comments on my physique and skin, so I guess I’m doing something right. Love your channel mate.
Great video. There are some additional things are helpful to know on this topic. My understanding is that the science shows that high blood sugar and also red meat shut off an enzyme system that creates the protein carnosine. You can supplement with carnosine as a way to block Advanced glycation end products, collagen cross-linking being one of the various types of advanced glycation end products. I'm skinny and struggle to keep weight on my body so I have to really keep on top of my carbs and I can't always be active after eating a meal with a fair amount of carbohydrates. And I have found I just feel better if I have a good amount of healthy carbs in my diet. However, my Fast Metabolism seems to need carbs more than the average person. I have found carnosine to be a great tool to use rhythmically as needed
Amazing content as always. What's even more important is assisting people with the idea that it would be irrelevant to purchase Collagen if you are eating terribly
Very helpful. It’s good to have more great reasons to be mindful of what we’re putting in to our mouths.
Great video! Thank you for your content, I enjoy how you’re able to breakdown the science into layman’s terms!
I really agree with this … the problem is that most people will have high insulin for 15 years or so before there blood sugars are picked up!…. This has to change … the damage is being done whilst the insulin is high…. When the blood sugars are super unstable you have already done so much damage …. Request fasting insulin bloods!…
HBA1c is good but only at picking up blood sugars over long term … won’t pick up hyper insulinanemia ..
I am a type 1 diabetic for over 20 years with an A1C of 5.9 and thick hair and everything.
You're likely in control mate, 5.9 isn't too shabby at all.
APPRECIATE your content, particularly when you discuss specific lab tests and within normal ranges etc. Keep it up, I'm listening!
Yup, definitely needed this video.
I am a personal trainer and I work in a physical therapist office we get physical therapy patients with blown Achilles that makes a lot of sense now and some of the patients have come from other personal trainers where they blew out their Achilles while trying to exercise now I understand why and trying to develop an exercise program for diabetics that preserve those Achilles
Thanks Mike for sharing this information. Also thanks for sharing the practical actions we can take to increase our metabolic health.
Love your content as always Mike! ❤
I love the way you explain things. Very informative and it sticks!.
Thank you for this valuable information! Could you please talk about berberine and carnosine or other supplements to fight glycation?
Thanks Mike.. loved the content! I Always learn something from your videos.
Thank you Mike . Important topic..
Thanks for the feedback. I'm 52 years young, have my own personal yoga and breathing practice and sleep well, as well practicing mindful eating. I work at the airport doing physical labor, picking up over 100 bags a day and just physically active. While never easy in my working lifestyle, I am practicing mindful eating - eating just a meal a day and my sugar intake has reduced so much. Anyway, What are your thoughts on Dr. Josh Axe's products, especially his bone broth collagen powder. Thank you.
Does eating collagen actually help grow collagen? It seems like when it’s broken down to be digested it would not reform as collagen but I don’t really know.
Very timely content for me - recovering from surgery on my third tendon rupture ( I am very active at my age). What's interesting to me is that since mid-Jan I've been nearly full carnivore, had the best lipid results of my life (May) and can see results in skin. However, my tendons feel like they are worse off (ruptured the right triceps tendon and left one is feeling similar/tearing). Will have to dig further into glycation causes, since at least for me A1c has always been in the good range, but my whole family is at some level type 2 diabetic.
Are you eating organ meats? Muscle meats are much higher in zinc than organ meats, which depletes you of copper. Copper is essential for collagen. My friend was supplementing zinc and it was making her joints worse. As soon as she stopped (and also started taking a trace minerals with 2mg copper) the trouble she was having resolved itself. I highly recommend the book The Mineral Fix, it's really opened my eyes to proper ratios, etc.
@@Moses-ef6mu some and taking liver/thymus supplements. I was taking a lot of zinc to help with DOMS and sleep, and just ran into the same info you mention. Started adding in copper and am planning to get levels tested to check into any major issues. Thanks for the confirmation - I know that did play some part in this.
Can you do a talk on PCOS what causes it and how to reverse it
Many ladies have success eating low carb, in helping to heal themselves. Many have gotten pregnant after years of trying, after doing keto.
I was told back in the 70s that I would never have children by 3 different doctors. Non explained why. But I realize it was PCOS now. Told my husband before getting married.
Like all brides I wanted to be lovely on our wedding day. So I went on the evil, Atkins diet. Kept on it after the marriage. At least until I was pregnant. Then switch back to the so called healthy eating guidelines.
Many years later I went on the evil Atkins diet again. Was working great until I got pregnant again. Went back to the healthy diet guidelines again. Gained 80 pounds on 1600 low fat, high fibre calories a day. Knowing what I know now, I would have stuck with the evil Atkins diet. So much healthier.
I have the eating guidelines for pregnant women used in the late 40s, early 50s in Canada. Nursing textbook.
Meat, fish, poultry, eggs, cheese. Liver at least once a week. Cheese at least 3 times a week. At least one egg every day.
4 glasses of milk
1 green and 1 yellow vegetable with butter
1 small green salad
2 fruit, one citrus. May be tomatoe
1 serving whole grain cereal for breakfast
1 slice whole grain bread for lunch with butter
1 small potatoe for supper
If you put on too much poundage, remove the grains.
They understand carbohydrates back in the 50s. Women did not gain 80 pounds while starving.
My oldest inherited the PCOS from me. If I could go back in time, There would be a lot more eggs, meat, etc, in her diet and way less grains. But I was following the Death Canada food guidelines. Like the food pyramid, based on Adventist cult agenda and not real science.
Dr. Mark Hyman,here on the tube, has a podcast video on PCOS. The discussion stated it’s inflammatory due to a high carb/high sugar diet. He actually has a couple of videos on the topic.
If we go low/zero carb with healthy animal fats, and prevent hyperglycemia/hyperinsulinemia, and we get no disease, what is going to kill us eventually? Serious question. Is it damage due to glycation anyway? Oxidation?
believe it or not, glycation occurs also when you are on low carb or keto, just significantly less and yes, other factors age you as well.
@@Swump87 so it would be damage/wear due to glycation and oxidation then, wouldnt it? I am just wondering how it would manifest itself.
Carbs are important. As it's the primary fuel for energy and it's what bind water in our cells. Notice that if we have low carbs, it will lower our weight. Weight is not only fat. There are organs and muscles too that need energy & water.
Idk about fats, ima search later. But energy from proteins are converted in kidney. It will damage our kidney if we want to fuel our energy from proteins.
I exercise daily. I am a runner🏃♀. I exercise while fasting, which I generally fast 12-16 hrs. A day. But I eat my meal at night before bed. I don’t typically eat meat or heavy protein bc it weighs me down. I do eat a lot of almonds, lean fish a couple times a week, avocados daily and lots of grapes, watermelon, papaya, cantaloupe AT NIGHT after midnight before bed. I wonder if this is been affecting my blood sugar. I have been experiencing osteopenia & joint pain lately.
Too much sugar or fructose from fruits. When you train don’t fast. Fats only when you’re not training for your runs
Another home run! Thanks Mike...
Great video, thank you Mike Mutzel 👍👏👏👏
Appreciate your content so much! Thank you for your hard work and dedication!
good tips for long term planning to optimize function and mobility!!!!
This was great! Glycation and collagen should be talked about together. Thanks Mike!!
Excellent video!
this is excellent contextual information on aging, diet and exercise, 10 out of 10, thank you for putting this out there 👊🙏❤
Really great video. I love your indepth explanations . Thank you so much
Super helpful piece. Makes sense out of much of my experience!
Another great video thank you 🔥
Great video. Unfortunately for me I was a sugar junkie begore I was aware. I'm now in my late 50s and my skin is horribly wrinkled. I'd like to know if collagen damage can be repaired. And what those steps would be.
This was informative thank you. I really like the way this was explained. 😊
Awesome content Mike, staying Keto and more active at 54.
Wow, excellent and valuable information. Thank you.
Thanks Mike
Exactly what happened to me-ruptured Achilles with surgery on one leg, then upper tear on other leg 2 years later.. I lift heavy hike, etc, not obese, just strong dad bod kinda, mid 40s, but I eat too much sugar and carbs. I can't burn them the way I did playing football or track in the past. Absolutely believe I'm pre diabetic so making changes already. All my injuries are tendon the last few years so this all makes sense. Change now!
Bless you man....! thank you so much for the information you share with us ....!
Thank you for this video
Great video- informative and concise! Thank you 🫀🧠💪🏼
Im SO GLAD that you said people with 'hyperglycemia' - this does not apply to healthy people, with normal blood sugars. (witch are most people). I eat a lot of processed foods, and 200-300g carbs a day. And my HbA1c is 4 years in a row 5,7 (EU) - perfectly normal - mostly because i have normal weight.
Small changes in bloodsugar (when eating, carbs or protein), does not cause problems in long term.
I have been in horrible pain for years. I eat great. But I started taking celebrex and I am painfree.
Strength endurance flexibility add in moderation youll be fine
Thank you
Love the great info though love learning all the time and applying to my active life
Very helpful and informative
0:45 glad I deal with none of those. I feel I have more hair than I did in high school
Great information. Thank you 🙏
That's why Paul Saladino's skin looks rough. He needs to eat the meat and yogurt separately from the honey and fruit. He is teaching people to eat all these together. Food combining can be deadly and it weakens your pancreatic cells. I've seen people who eat mono meals and they look amazingly hydrated!!
Great videos, 👍🏻👍🏻.
Love you Mike, you Rock. I just want to say how much I Miss the 70’s and 80’s. Some of these problems did not seem to exist back then. Oh well, I guess that’s how the world crumbles.
I am 33 now but often get mistaken for being somewhere in my early to mid 20s. Now it could be said that because I don’t have a lot of facial hair That people can’t necessarily guess my age readily( I mean I’m not old), However I watched a PBS special about 18 years ago when I was in the throes of dealing with acne. some European female doctor was mentioning AGEs and selling her facial products but also a diet to prevent the glycation process. I say this to say that people always ask me why I chose sugar-free from the age of 15 and it was because I was dealing with skin problems and didn’t want to prematurely age already damaged skin
Dude all your productions are important...
