A1C, INSULIN & the Damn RANDLE CYCLE with Dr. Ben Bikman

I haven't been able to eat beef in years and very little other meats. I have been stuck on trying a vegan, a vegetarian and keto and all failed and I was horribly sick. I have only ate steak and eggs all week and I feel FABULOUS! I haven't weighed myself but I can feel it in my clothes already. I can not digest veggies or grains at all.

[@bonnieschmidt5882]

I have FH and have had a stroke even though I lost weight. I think my CAC score of 117 is due more to over 60 years of eating too much sugar and highly processed foods. A little afraid to go full out carnivore, but def feel comfortable eating more beef, butter, and eggs, but still eat a lot of fruits and and non-starchy vegetables. It’s been easier to set a “bright line” about not eating “foods” that include added sugar, grains, and/or seed oils, but am still hesitating about going full carnivore. Is it possible that this kind of eating (carnivore) is better for the majority of people, but maybe not for me? I’m focusing on eating more fatty fish, but don’t like it yet.

All I can say is thank you Dr. Berry. I started a rather rough journey back in February this year. I had a boil that turned into septic shock on me. I ended up being taken to the hospital with a blood sugar level of 1099 and my ac1 was at a 12. After I was brought back down and recieved surgery I was given the news that I was type 2 and told how to maintain my problem. Man I was lost and I found you and a few others that helped guide me. I switched to very clean meat and good fat diet with a few vegetables here and there and cleaned up my whole diet and started 12-14 hour fasting and I went from 289-197 in 5 months. My ac1 is sitting at a 4.8 and my resting blood glucose is at 80. I no longer take the insulin or the metformin. You helped me through this scary and lost part of my life and just wanted you to know that you are making a difference and you helped me find my way. THANK YOU AND GOD BLESS.

It's like you tell a child don't touch the hot stove.. they won't listen until they experience it. Yes, everybody probably knows that sugar and ultrproc food is bad but they probably don't know how bad it really is, they need to have a key experience to turn around. It doesn’t have to do with discipline. You need to give people a reason to change which is not communicated by today's health standards. For me it was wearing a continuous glucose monitor more like for fun and then starting to dig for answers to my questions about the data. I came across Dr Lustig and fell into the rabbit hole. I was shocked about the stuff I had no clue about, and same applies to probably most everybody

My muscle tone's increasing and I haven't started exercising, and my ability to relax is also greatly heightened -- I feel a deep relaxation where I used to feel a bit of fatigue, almost a stressful kind of tiredness.

I will agree that this is one of the best interviews I’ve heard. I’m so excited to hear people start talking more about the flaws in the theory of evolution and opening their minds to the more reasonable and plausible theory of a creator!

[@Ariella-mx3xq4cw6n]

Both doctors agreed there was evolution but Dr Bickman said no evidence. What neither said was the complete lack of evidence for macro evolution. Very short version my view. There are two types of evolution. Micro (adaption. Real) and macro (change from one kind to another. False). The chimp has 70% DNA a banana has 50% DNA. Macro Evolution is a Hypothesis not a theory. God did not use macro evolution, that would mean there was un living, illness, disease, osteoarthritis and tumours, before man arrived. At the same time it negates the death of a man on a cross. If God used macro evolution then He introduced sin NOT man, Which means we do not need Jesus to save us, we are innocent victims. Which we are not.

[@robincochran123]

LOVED this conversation. The willingness to talk about evolution was so refreshing. My highly educated 30 something children get flustered with me when I call evolution a theory and not a law.

[@davidwiechecki9205]

It's a bad theory based on a poor usage of the scientific method. No one except God was there in the beginning. He told us what he did. I used to believe in evolution and called myself an atheist. But when I got better information I realized that the Bible was way more accurate than all of that stuff I was taught. None of the scientists that promote an old age of the universe and evolution were there in the beginning. And none of the methods that they use to extrapolate into the past are accurate Beyond a few thousand years. Which is what the Bible says about the age of the earth. Approximately 6,000 years.

[@terrirafiq9329]

Respectfully, this is a misunderstanding of language. Your words imply that there's some kind of hierarchy wherein a theory is inferior and "just a wild guess" but a law is superior and somehow more proven. That's just not how those words are used in science. Laws are predictive rules about how nature is expected to act under specific circumstances, often small enough to be written as an equation. Theories are overarching explanations of how and why nature works in those ways. In order to be widely accepted by scientists a theory must be well supported by many different lines of evidence over a period of time, including experimentation. Laws can be used as evidence to support theories but theories will never become laws because they serve a totally different function. Certainly Evolution is a Theory, but that does not make it lesser. One of these doctors is a cell biologist, which is built on *Cell Theory*.

At 78 you need a raised LDL. T Cells go into retirement at our age and LDL is part of the immune system.

Don’t you feel your IQ rising every time you watch one of these doctors?

My mind & memory is improving still after years of a Carnivore diet with sweet/carbo binges. Now on a strict Carnivore & in three weeks I notice improvements! 😊

From all I've listen to; grass fed beef, water, salt. All different and/or additional food is individual to you and your body's tolerance for.

Thx guys for filming this and sharing it with us.

Interesting discussion in particular about the fact that fructose will not give any indication of A1c!!! However, the discussion about sugar replacement was a bit one-sided since you didn't mention the fact that substitute sugars/sweet taste can continue to drive the addiction to sugar/carbs which is something that I lived myself for many many years. Going carnivore and completely cutting out substitutes (and dairy) has been the only way my cravings have subsided. Not disappeared completely because the environment - cues and triggers me still from time to time. Hard to escape all the sugar/carb outlets even if I don't enter!!!

It’s also important to add that lots of sweeteners can disrupt the gut microbiome as well.

[@jangrosemartindale8740]

I disagree- they kind of referred to it by saying IF & “for those using”. I think they’re being realistic about sweetener usage, because as they related, they now know SMELLING the sugar or sweetener items INDUCE a BRAIN response. The Drs understand it is an addiction, the brain expects & wants the glucose because it has been exposed, trained to accept it, due to the effects on the brain.

Such good stuff. 🙏 Dr Berry and Dr Bikman

Woo hoo! My favorite guy!

The dynamic duo! Thank you.

I’ve tried to get my doctors to check my insulin level for 2 years. No dice, they wouldn’t do it. Thank God it is no longer a problem.

[@nevillegoddard4966]

@@texfarm6798 Whaaat? They wouldn't? "Hey listen here doc YOU work for ME you got that? When I ask for an insulin test I WANT an insulin test, whether you approve or not! If you DON'T write me down for an insulin test then you're fricken FIRED! GOT IT!"

[@tonystonebraker]

In most states you can order your own labs. I got my fasting insulin for about $25 from Quest.

[@laurahosler1771]

This is a test you can self order if your living in the states.

[@333Susanne]

If the doctors still refuse on request it is a problem!! I've heard so from others as well. I get my own

[@Ariella-mx3xq4cw6n]

@@nevillegoddard4966 Not in the UK. With the appalling NHS. You are chained to a catchment area, unless you can afford to go private. My doctor even refuses to give me a glucose monitoring machine even though N.I.C.E. says we are to have them and ample sticks & lancets.

[@jose79fin]

First time I've heard of American Diabetes Society. This is real good news! It would be great if Dr Richard Bernstein could be part of this. His book and all he teaches is similar to yours and is what has kept my Type 1 Diabetic son's A1C at a steady 5.6 and lower rate at minimal insulin doses.

Go Dr Bikman!

Love it when the 2 best brains In the keto space get together!!

Thank you so much for talking about our strong belief in Christ and yet accept realty of evolution. Praise God for your courage.

[@lcvb1624]

So, believe PART of God's Word , but THROW OUT or CHANGE the parts you decide not to agree with because after all you are SO much smarter and well informed than GOD ALMIGHTY.🤔 Doesn't satan aka THE ETERNAL LOSER twist the Word & contradict God at every opportunity?🤔 Yes he does. There is a difference between adaptation & evolution. God created everything PERFECTLY and included built in abilities to adapt BECAUSE HE KNEW the fall by rebellion(not believing Him & CHOOSING to disobey DESPITE HIS WARNINGS) was going to happen, so HE built in the ability for His creation to survive until the Day of Redemption when HE will bring all creation back into His perfection.❤👍

[@terrifoster8986]

​@lcvb1624 It always makes me sad when people, really smart people, talk about evolution. Before I was saved I believed in evolution too, it does seem plausible to the unregenerated mind, but after I got saved and read the Bible with new eyes and prayed for wisdom I saw clearly that evolution just doesn't make sense.

[@drhanafayyad4347]

Dr Berry is a great interviewer !

[@jimmckay2337]

I try carnivore. It seems to work 100% of the time. Go figure.

[@geo_neo9]

Give it a good few years everyone will regret consuming a food type that's not meant for humans. Professional herbalists do not use meat to heal the body they use herbs which heals everything wrong. It's not meat that has healed you it's the stopping of consuming bad foods which gives your body type mass inflammation because you replaced it with meat. People don't know how to listen to their bodies. Too much protein destroys kidneys and reduce lifespan.

[@geo_neo9]

I speak truth they remove, go figure.

[@geo_neo9]

We should look at what the elite consume whom are at the top.

[@lisareiter5368]

Supposedly, Bill Clinton was a vegetarian.

[@languagelynnie]

I absolutely loved the discussion about evolution and religion by two amazing brilliant scientists who are also devoted to their faith. We need to hear more of that.

I had gastric bypass 15 years ago and recently had a slightly high A1C. Dr got after me. I’m extremely careful with my diet. I was paleo. Have switched to keto a week ago to see if my dietary change will improve my A1C. I’m now experiencing headaches nearly every morning. I’m wondering if my A1C was artificially high due to my WLS! Thank you for bringing this up. I’m so grateful for your explanation as to how this could happen.
