BNC#5: "By evolution or creation, humans were designed to eat fat and protein" - Prof. Tim Noakes

[@MyFatAdaptedLife]

Thanks to Prof Noakes and the carnivore diet (I eat no carbs or plants), I am able to run 100 miles a week completely fat-adapted and glycogen-depleted. Two Sundays ago I qualified for the Boston Marathon, running on fat and ketones only. BTW I'm 61 years young.

[@BloodGangBrazy]

You cannot run on fat and ketones alone. All muscles require glycogen to function. Luckily, we can produce glycogen without the need for carbohydrates in the diet.

[@MyFatAdaptedLife]

@@BloodGangBrazy Really? Sir, there is no such a thing as an essential carbohydrate. Look up "gloconeogenesis". Then watch Prof Noakes' other videos. Then watch Prof Bart Kay, Prof Jeff Volek, Prof Stephen Phinney. Then look up Zach Bitter, then look up my results for the Modesto Marathon. Sir

I went on my first calorie restricting diet 50 years ago, and pretty much every year after that. They all ended the same way some good weight loss; but tired and hungry and obsessed with food, eventually leading to putting all the weight back on with a higher normal weight. Last year ended up 254 lbs, on 7 medications, prediabetic, fatty liver, coronary heart disease, and with pulmonary edema. In 2022 I started low carb fasting with one good meal per day, increasing meat, fish, eggs, and green veg. Now I am 209lbs, no more heart pain or fatty liver; dropped 3 medications, no more prediabetes. But the great thing is that fasting was easy after the second day, and once you become fat adapted hunger is no longer a problem. I wish someone had told me 50 years ago.

TWO types of carbs, eat MORE LOW GI and less High Gi, LOW GI takes longer to convert to sugar and keeps you feeling full longer. Sugar is the fuel for the body, protein is tissue repair.

[@berniefynn6623]

Are carbohydrates good for you or bad? Carbohydrates - fiber, starches and sugars - are essential food nutrients that your body turns into glucose to give you the energy to function. Complex carbs in fruits, vegetables and whole-grain products are less likely to spike blood sugar than simple carbs (sugars). Low-carb diets like keto can be high in fats.

That’s a complete lie.

[@Vishnujanadasa108]

Nonsense pseudoscience. What’s wrong? Didn’t get the toy you wanted in your happy meal? You aren’t a lion stop pretending meat makes you a man. I don’t blame you you come from a dark culture-how ugly are gothic buildings? Imagine the white house was goth. You come from the dark ages-well your conditioning. Even your language sounds like barking animal noises. Your descended from knuckle dragging Neanderthals (you can tell by the facial structure) so no surprise. Whoever wrote this isn’t a zoologist or anatomist with all due respect. For example We don’t salivate for dog food like dogs because we have completely different tastes to natural meat-eaters. Humans are pure herbivore (taxon: frugivore, like fruit-eating gorillas). Human jaws move sideways like a cow and deer or gorilla (are we closer to wolves than gorillas?). Omnivores/carnivores can only chew up and down like a dog or cat-not sideways. We grind our food with our flat teeth whereas real meat-eaters chomp their food. Humans are frugivores like gorillas: blogs.scientificamerican.com/guest-blog/human-ancestors-were-nearly-all-vegetarians/ Humans have a low ph with food in the stomach. Once we eat our ph becomes like that of an herbivore (It’s misleading to claim low ph in the human stomach acid being correlated to omnivores’ low ph-not so when food is being digested, the important part). You have long intestines also exactly like a monkey whereas meat-eaters have very short digestive tracks. Finally frontal eyes don’t make you a meat-eater either. Gorillas and monkeys etc also have forward-looking eyes for depth perception, etc. Many carnivores like sharks also have eyes on the sides of the face. Humans also sweat which meat-eaters don’t do (they use the tongue for ventilation as they can’t sweat, or paws. Mammalian omnivore pores are minimal). Meat eaters also have claws and sharp teeth which humans don’t. Our hands are designed to pick fruits obviously. We can’t even outrun predators. Humans and Herbivores have an appendix, well-developed Facial muscles, expanded jaw angle, jaw joint location above the plane of the molars, jaw motion (sideways), carbohydrate-digesting enzymes in saliva, pH 4-5 stomach acidity with food in the stomach, the liver cannot detoxify vitamin A, moderately concentrated urine in the kidney, etc. I could go on and on and on and on! We are obviously anatomically herbivore taxon frugivore like gorillas and apes-not even omnivore. No one salivates at fresh roadkill but they do when they see fruit which wants to be eaten. We couldn’t even kill and eat most animals since we aren’t fast enough nor do we have the anatomy such as claws and fangs etc. We see the full color spectrum (except x-rays etc) like herbivores whereas meat eaters don’t. Our major jaw musles are messeter and pterygolds whereas in meat eaters it’s temporalis. The peristalsis of meat eaters don’t require fiber to stimulate but herbivores like humans do. Our stomach acid with food in it has a ph of 4-5 like herbivores rather than the 1 or less for Omni/carnis. The placenta of meat eaters is zonary-shaped whereas in plant eaters like humans it’s discoid. Meat eaters can digest vitamin A in large amounts (liver detoxification) whereas we herbivores can’t. We also sweat through our skin not our tongues. We have smooth tongues like monkeys and most herbivores (not tough like omnivore/carnivores). Our digestive track is 9 times the length of our bodies like apes, whereas other herbivores have 20 times the length, whereas carni/omnivores’ is 1.5-3 times. We have alkaline saliva like herbivores, we have well-developed facial muscles to facilitate chewing whereas omni/carnivores don’t have strong facial muscles in order to facilitate gaping their mouths wide for swallowing (just as meat eaters mostly have jaws that only move up and down for chomping whereas humans can move the jaw sideways for chewing like cows, deers, monkeys. Humans have simple livers whereas meat eaters have complex. Herbivore bile flow is weak compared to that of meat eaters, and it takes us much longer to digest food. The mammaries of Meat eaters are squally multiple teats for large broods whereas plant eaters may have multiple teats to nurse litters or only one or two children at a time (like humans /frugivores having dual breasts). Meat eaters are 100% covered in fur whereas herbivores have pores and humans aren’t hairy at all. We have sweat glands all over the body whereas meat eaters only have them in their paws and cool down thorough panting (Mammalian omnivore pores are minimal). We have long sacculated colons like herbivores (since we are one) whereas meat eaters have short, smooth colons. We have carb-digesting enzymes in our saliva like ptyalin whereas meat eaters don’t (they use lysosomes). Our brains are fueled by glycogen; Omni/carnis use fats/proteins. I could go on but you get it. The mouth opening of meat eaters is large relative to their body unlike herbivores like a human. The latters’ jawline is expanded whereas the meat eater’s isn’t. Meat eaters ie omni/carnivores swallow food whereas plant eaters like humans and cows, apes, chew. Real canines in meat eaters are sharp, long, and curved. In Herbivores like man they are rudimentary, short, and blunted. Incisors of meat eaters are short and pointed. In Humans and other herbivores they’re flattened, broad, and spade-shaped. Molars of meat eaters are sharp, jagged, and blade-shaped. Herbivores like man’s are flattened and complex or cusp-shaped. Salivary glands of meat eaters are small but humans have large herbivorous glands. The stomach capacity of meat eaters is 60-70% of the total digestive tract. For Herbivores it’s less than 30% and for man and ape it’s 21-27%. Meat eaters can’t convert short-chain fatty acids to LCFAs like humans/herbivores. Meat eaters have proportionately larger livers, especially pure carnivores. Frugivores like humans and apes specifically have smaller livers compared to other herbivores. Meat eaters can metabolize large amounts of cholesterol efficiently l, whereas herbivores like man can onto digest smaller amounts efficiently. Meat eaters have uricase enzymes via renal (kidney) secretion whereas herbivores like humans don’t. Digestion time for carnivores is roughly 2-4 hours, in omnivores roughly 4-6, in herbivores 24-48 hours, and in humans/primates 12-18 hours. Urine concentration of herbivores relative to meat eaters is weak (meat eaters have extreme concentrations). In humans and primates it’s moderate. Urinate chemistry in meat eating carni/omnivores is acidic but in herbivores like humans it’s alkaline. Placenta in meat eating species is zonary-shaped. In herbivores it’s discoid-shaped-including humans. Carnivores will have 4 limbs and paws with claws (omnivores might have paws or hooves). Herbivores have hooves. Primate frugivores have arms and prehensile hands & feet (humans don’t have prehensile feet). Meat eaters and herbivores walk on all fours. Frugiovre primates sometime walk upright and man only upright. Carnivores have claws, omnivores either claws or blunt hooves like herbivores, and frugivores like primates/man, flattened nails.

Listen to Tim - it's about history! Weston A Price (a dentist) conducted the most detailed study of nutrition and human health by traveling the world in the 20's and his incredible book Nutrition and Physical Degeneration is the most amazing read. It showed that traditional high fat diets were known to be the core of healthly living in traditional lifestyles and when this was followed there was no sign of the degenerative diseases that we know today. His observations were backed up by physicians that lived in these areas. He also showed how the switch to modern diets was a factor in the increase in mental health issues.

[@Dan-gs3kg]

Another good history piece is the Relation of Disease and Alimentation by Dr Salisbury of the Salisbury Steak.

Weston A Price never concludes we should be eating a keto diet. He just says animal foods are an important part of a traditional human diet and are crucial for human health.

Tim and everyone else who swallows this tripe is CLUELESS!!! When Dr. Price traveled to remote areas, his intent was to find healthful solutions for his dental patients. When we look back with 85 years of scientific hindsight, we can see that his examinations and conclusions were flawed. When he touted the health of primitive peoples, he was not aware of their short life expectancy and high rates of infant mortality, endemic diseases, and infection.

Thank you for sharing this conversation. With regard to Professor Noakes' point about kidney stones: I followed the Atkins Diet, back in the 1990's, and abandoned it, when I passed a kidney stone. It was the most painful thing I have ever experienced, and frightened me. What I now realise, having done my research and following a low-carb diet for over a year, is that the only reason I passed that kidney stone, was that it had reduced to the point where it could pass through the ureter. It was not the Atkins Diet which caused the kidney stone. And the same is true for any low-carb, ketogenic or carnivore approach: if, as a result of years of high-carb eating, you have kidney stones, it is very likely that they will be passed out through the ureter. Likewise, gallstones.

This incidence of kidney stones on keto diet can be seen in the clinical research on juvenile epileptics drug resistant: 20% get kidney stones in 6 mos. due to the zero carb diet. Root cause is likely uric acid being secreted in blood which the kidney filters forming crystals. The fix for epileptic kids on strict keto is extended release potassium citrate (prescription) of about 2.5g potassium citrate.

You mention about cholesterol Tim, and here is the super interesting thing I learnt just very recently. First of all what they call cholesterol (LDL, HDL, VLDL etc), is not actually cholesterol but lipoproteins that are carriers of cholesterol esters and triglycerides. But here is the interesting thing; they don't just carry cholesterol; they also carry Vitamin E, COQ10, and carotenoids as well as other antioxidants, so when you nuke these carriers, you not only take away the cholesterol but also the vitamin E, COQ10, Beta Carotene etc etc. By what I understand, its the lipid peroxidation thats the thing to be concerned about

It's a one sided truth though. Try reading different interpretations of human history and you get a different story about diets. The main message of human history is that humans adapt to eat whatever is available. Fruit/veg/nuts plentiful....humans ate very little animal stuff - when not plentiful they ate animals. Keto works, but supporting it by saying that is how we are designed to eat, is not the truth - it is an opinion based on evidence of looking at humans in one part of their history only when the earth lost so much of its forest. Forest dweller ape type species (which is where what we were) ate mainly fruit, nuts, seeds, insects - humans forced onto plains with little vegetation were forced to adapt to eating meat. Not doubting that keto works up to a point, but the supporting arguments are not the whole story.

The keto diet is not healthy and not sustainable. You need fresh fruit and vegetables in your diet. Cut out all the refined carbs - refined flour, refined sugar - and make sure you don't smoke. Keep alcohol to small amounts. No artificial sweeteners and keep caffeine to low amounts (2 to 3 cups of coffee a day). No heated fats or refined fats. Butter, olive oil (cold pressed), coconut oil, avocado, nuts, seeds - all are great fats as long as you don't heat them to high temps. No soda drinks/cool drinks. In other words, eat a natural diet full of unprocessed foods. If you eat animal products, don't eat battery chicken or farmed meat where the animal is injected with hormones and routine anti-biotics. No battery eggs. Plant protein like quinoa, lentils, chickpeas, kidney beans etc are great sources of healthy protein. Keto can work for some people for short periods but it's not healthy in the long-term. It stresses the kidneys and it's darned expensive! Wishing you good luck and good health!
