  • In this video I'm speaking with Dr. Stephan Guyenet about the science behind what is driving fat gain. We also cover the "is a calorie a calorie" question, address the role of sugar/carbs in obesity and diabetes and the role of the brain in regulating all of this.
    This interview was recorded just after the debate on the Joe Rogan Experience Podcast (JRE) between Gary Taubes and Stephan Guyenet, which you can listen to here: • Video

    2. control your food environment, dophamine-related, don't put tempting food easily visible
    3. eat simple whole food diet, like ancestors, less calorie-dennse
    4. increase your protein intake
    5. get regular physical activity
    6. consider reduce your carb intake or fat intake, whichever works for you

    This was a great conversation. For someone who doesn't know where to start with how to regulate their eating, I found the last ~15 minutes or so especially helpful. I appreciate Dr. Guyenet's sober and unsensational approach. His eating recommendations were helpful too. Keep it simple, whole, and not so easy to snack on. Keep unhealthy food away from you at work and home.
    I also enjoyed seeing how excited Jeff got just remembering to mention how much he enjoyed Dr. Guyenet's list of detailed references with summaries on his website. Doesn't get much nerdier than that ;P

    I was consuming 1700 calories, on a "healthy" low fat low sodium higher carb standard american diet. I started eating low carb/keto and immediately increased my caloric intake to 1900, then increased by 200 calories every two months over a year.
    By the end of my 12 monyh body transformation, I had gone from 27% to 9% body fat. I had lost 60lbs of body fat and gained muscle. I had gone from 207lbs to 155lbs. And I was eating 3400 calories by that point.
    Now, two and a half years later, I maintain at 3000 calories. With some days higher.
    So after two and a half years on a ketogenic diet, I am still 50lbs lighter, still averaging 10-11% body fat abd eating nearly twice the calories I was on a high carb diet at 27% body fat and I was getting fatter.
    So how could I double my caloric intake over a year on keto, and loose body fat, loose weight? Now if I do nothing at 2800 calories I loose weight on keto where before I ate 1700 on carbs and was getting fatter.
    The hypothesis is not that a calorie is not a calorie or that calories do not matter, but rather that HORMONES and insulin matter more when it comes to whether a body is storing fat or burning fat.

    • @brookemoore8369
      @brookemoore8369 Před 3 lety +4

      Because your body is switching from burning carbohydrates as a fuel source to fat and protein. Ketosis is a metabolic process your body undergoes when it’s main fuel source has run dry, and it’s forced to switch to a different energy burning mode. Hence why you are burning so much fat while eating more calories... because you are starving your body if it’s main field source (carbs). Ketosis is great for melting weight off, helping type 2 diabetes, etc., but it does have its down sides as well, since you are depleting your body of carbohydrates. You pick and choose your battles with this diet.

      @@brookemoore8369 The human body does not need carbohydrates. If your body could choose which source of energy to burn it will always choose ketones over carbohydrates/sugar. Our ancestors never ate carbohydrates/sugar, most of which is highly processed today. Carbohydrates and sugar are the number one cause of most metabolic diseases and obesity on this planet.

    • @brookemoore8369
      @brookemoore8369 Před 2 lety +3

      Charles I agree that the body should run off of ketones the majority of the time, but carbs have their place…. Hence why many athletes prefer higher carb diets, because the glycogen that’s stored in the muscles helps them to perform better during events. Personally, I believe that extremely low carb diets should implemented the majority of the time unless a particular person plans on being very active that day and the carbs choice needs to be more complex carbs coming from vegetables and occasionally fruits. I’m not so sure about grains at this point…. I agree with you though, ketones are better fuel for the body the majority of the time.

    Great summary of what we know about calories and overall great video. However, this has been gone over so many times and both "sides" agree on the topics covered in the video. The video is a little redundant and I feel like we need to move forward with this conversation. These are all things we know, and the real argument is about what is optimal with regards to long term health, sustainability, and practicality; not just body weight. Obviously, the answer will most likely just be more of how it depends on the individual.
    Again, it was a great video, and I don't want to sound like I think it's useless or anything. It is really nice to see that everyone agrees on the fundamentals. I guess I was just really hoping on getting more info and learning something. Although it doesn't ever hurt to have a detailed recap on what is known.

    I still continue to be "a calorie is a calorie" skeptic because I participated in a research study where I ate only food given to me during the study, and they changed macros, as well as sugar and fiber, and kept the calories the exact same. They weighed every 2 weeks because they wanted us to stay weight stable. I lost 4 pounds of fat and gained 2 pounds lean body mass on the first half and gained 4 pounds of fat on the second half, so eating the same calories, keeping activity mostly the same, but actually more active in second half, so it's at least something of what you eat and not just calories that matters. I may not be average, but you need to be aware of what works for you.

      Well, Jeff only swears by caloric surplus and deficit, seems like he doesnt know that fasting and keto diet (that essentielly mimics fasting and making you enter in ketegenesis phase switching from getting glycogene from carbs to from all energie by glyconeogenesis) that actually INCREASES your base metabolism, aswell as increasing gh production etc.

      I think they addressed exactly what you’re saying. That there’s lots of value in CICO but your also have to take into account how each individual will process certain macro nutrients. At the end of the day it shouldn’t be a one size fits all approach, it should be customized to fit what works best for each individual. The only way to know is through trial and error. BTW, as a physique and macro coach I’ve found that the different body types (endo,ectomorph and meso) can help you determine where a person might do better with different macro splits/keto etc. Doesn’t always hold true but I’ve personally found it to be a good starting point. Love reading all your comments. Stay healthy and well. 💕💪🏽

    I think energy balance is the main factor. But there are better calories and worse calories. I'm not convinced that a person who ate 2000 calories of lean meat and greens would lose weight at the same rate as someone who ate 2000 calories of donuts and cola (all else being equal). They certainly wouldn't have the same body composition or health.

    Good timing. Just finished watching Joe's podcast. I think right now on CZcams, it is predominately argued that low carbohydrate diets are favourable to high carbohydrate diets (E.g. 'What I've Learned' channel). Even within the nutrition field, or at conferences, I hear about it all the time. I'd say that Gary's take isn't necessarily fringe; low carbohydrate diets and the associated science are becoming an amalgam of truths and half truths, in addition to outright false equivocation.

      The app My Fitness Pal was really helpful for me. Its free and u just type in how much you weigh vs. How much u wanna weigh and it tells u how many calories u need.now of course this just an estimate not an exact number but it's a great place to start. As far as Macros go, what's worked best for me is to start with 1 to 1.5 grams of protein per lb of bodyweight. For fat start with around 1 gram of fat per kilo of bodyweight(ur weight on kilos is just ur weight in pounds divided by 2.205) then the remaining of percentage of calories will go to carbs. This is a great place to start from there just weigh urself weekly if u want to lose weight and ur not loosing any weight than go dow 200 to 300 calories. Subtract those calories either from ur fat or ur carbs whichever is best for u(personally I love my carbs) but keep ur protein the same.

      @Mythic if u are quite a bit overweight(like over 235ish lbs for a male or over 200ishlbs for a female) then u shld probably use lean body mass or as an easy rule of thumb just don't exceed 275g for a male or 200g for a female. Not because that's dangerous or anything but just because that's alot of protein to digest. It might screw with ur stomach. If ur just looking to loose or gain an "average" amount of weight(20-40 lbs) then dnt go any lower than .7grams pr lb of bodyweight, like full on weight on the scale. Personally I like to get closer to around 1.5 to 2g of protein per lb of bodyweight(in 181lb at about 12% bf so that works out to about 215ishg of protein a day) because I'm trying to gain weight right now and only going 1g per lb would mean I wld have to eat a ridiculous amount of carbs.

There must be more to cravings than just the palatability of foods... some people seem to have MORE cravings when their diet is too bland and boring (myself included). Maybe cravings increase with both diets that are too bland and diets that are too palatable? I would love to hear a discussion about this.

    here is the key question:
    28:00
    if individuals can vary in the amount fat gained per amount of caloric intake then their are potentially various factors that can drive weight gain besides caloric intake and caloric expenditure. Common people observe this phenomenon and conclude that this relationship maybe genetic, macrobiotic through the gut, calorie sources, or type of caloric expenditure. Obviously common people do not have the observational resources or expertise to make a correct conclusion in regards to scientific conclusion. So regardless of what common people claim, what are these processes that diverge from the energy balance theory that allow variance among individuals?

    The caloric model is true similar to how newtonian gravity is true. Sure, all objects accelerate at a constant rate in a vacuum, but in practical observations the feathers fall differently than bricks, also the gravitational constant is not readily manipulable (as far as we know).
    Calories in /out is true in isocaloric (and same macro) diets, but in practice we have to talk about hormones that manage thermogenesis, fat deposition, hunger hormones etc ... Yes calories in/out model is very simple to understand, but in practice it's the hardest variable to control in people due to behavioral reasons.
    So the whole package is needed; Get good sleep, remove super stimulating foods, create other healthful improvements like exercise (reduce cortisol, increase endorphins), healthy gut environment (probiotics or whatever), reduce ghelin etc.
    Also weight loss is not really the goal, we want to reduce fat mass, and/or improve composition. A diet period that increases muscle mass and slightly decreases fat mass is superior to one that loses a lot of weight, but a higher percentage from LBM.

    • @KanyewestFT1W
      @KanyewestFT1W Před 3 lety +2

      Probably because people actually suck at counting calories? Humans are bad at math, again listen to what he said "controlled environment" they controlled everything they ate. He literally explained it, you just weren't able to understand what he was saying. Furthermore hormones do play a role, but no where near as much as you think. Hormones cannot violate the law of thermodynamics, if people actually had these insanely high metabolisms that they claimed, they'd be perpetually sweating and in a constant state of fever, because heat has to be generated by your metabolism if its more active. Are you in a constant fever? No? Okay then, your metabolism probably isn't this "super high" thing.
      Furthermore Keto diets cause your ASP to go up, which is another hormone that stores fat, it just stores fat from your diet into your fat cells. Your body doesn't use the energy it consumes immediately. Think of it like a gas tank, when you eat you fill up your fat cells/glycogen/liver etc, just like filling up a gas tank. When you use your metabolism aka being alive in any capacity, you use the energy stored in these areas, just like a car being driven. The hormones ASP and Insulin are just like the nozzle on a gas pump, they just connect the fuel directly to the storage space. Once one stops eating, these hormones go down, and then your body goes back into raising other hormones to release energy from your fat cells/glycogen/liver/muscle/whatever. If your body never released the energy in these stores, it would drop dead instantly. You need energy to survive, everything you do (save for dropping dead that instant) requires energy.
      That being said keto can cause some neat extra leaness effects by causing your body to no longer store glycogen and the extra water needed to maintain it. This can cause an extra few pounds of weight loss but notably this isn't fat. Glycogen and the water needed to hold it, hold less energy than fat itself does.
      Hopefully this makes sense
