@youmatter3035 Whoooa! Hold on a minute! 😁 1. Eating too much fat does NOT cause weight gain. 2. It does NOT cause insulin resistance. It happens ONLY if you eat high carbs with high fat. 3. It does NOT cause being tired(it’s overeating and carbs that causes it.). 4. The heart is NOT affected by eating too much fat. It is HIGH CARBS with high fat. The organ that IS affected is the gall bladder. He said this at the very beginning of his video that the first 4 on the list are MYTHS then explains why. That is why it’s important to watch the full video. 😊🙏❤️👍🏼

🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation: 00:42 🚫 *Eating too much fat does not directly cause weight gain; insulin resistance and high carbs play a role in fat storage.* 03:36 😴 *Feeling tired after eating is more related to overeating (Thanksgiving syndrome) than the type of fat consumed.* 05:55 💓 *Heart issues are not caused by healthy fats but can be influenced by poor-quality fats and insulin resistance from high carb consumption.* 08:10 🚽 *Gallbladder issues, like diarrhea and floating stool, can be signs of trouble breaking down fats if the gallbladder is not functioning properly.* 10:38 🤢 *Shoulder pain on the right side can indicate gallbladder problems, emphasizing the connection between gallbladder health and fat consumption.* 11:45 🔥 *Pain in the gallbladder area, often on the right side under the liver, may suggest congestion or sludge, potentially leading to gallbladder attacks.* 14:30 ⚖️ *Eating too much fat might hinder weight loss on a ketogenic diet if the body is primarily burning dietary fat instead of body fat. Adjusting fat intake is crucial for weight loss success.*

About the floating stool: it can be also caused by high vegetable intake. That creates gases which can be trapped in the stool, causing it to float. If you're an a keto diet (so high fat) and you're consuming daily a good amount of vegetables, then it can be possible to have floating and even lighter coloured stool. As long as it's not associated with any abdominal pain, diarrhea, cramps and other issues there's nothing to worry about.

[@jolima]

[@1eurolatefee]

Good point! I am also someone who has floating stools despite eating low fat. I'm vegan (24 years now) and my ratio of macros is about 60 percent carbs, 30 protein and 10 fat. I have fruit only for breakfast (1 or 2 handful of berries, mostly apples, sometimes 1 mango or papaya), starches, legumes and leafy greens for lunch and vegetables with some fat at night. I often observe the floating when consuming green smoothies (workout meal) though I don't add any fat to my smoothies except for maybe a tablespoon of flax or chia. Thus, it doesn't make a lot of sense what the doctor said. My Hb1ac is totally in the normal range, my BMI is 20.6, my bodyfat below 25 %.

Have you been counting your calories then? CICO is not myth, but veganism will induce some metabolic problems. What is your overall weight loss, if you have been counting calories?

[@RandomHuTaoSimp]

​@@atrifle8364 it's a myth under the correct context. For example, CICO is touted as just being, "burn more than you consume". Which is said without context, or even better, calculate what you burn vs what you consume. If you consume 2500 calories, calculate BMR + activities to go over 2500 in a given day, but this is bad advice and in this context, CICO is a myth. We have to realize diets like carnivore is more hormone and homeostasis related so there is more to BMR + daily activity that counts toward total energy expenditure. This is why when bart kay consumed 6500 calories a day for 2 weeks despite not burning no where near this much on paper. It'd because hormones are a huge part plus all the processes the body undergoes in the context of very low carb. Then you also have protein being very thermogenic.

Had I not been blessed with an efficient metabolism, and had I not been physically active, I could well have wound up way heavier from my junk food addiction and binges. In the 1980s I had a friend who tipped the scales at over 400 pounds, and I swear to you, her binges were no worse than mine had been. It's like being a drug addict or an alcoholic. I would eat until my gut ached and was fit to burst... and STILL could not stop. It was beyond awful. I remember attending Overeaters Anonymous, listening to my fellow junk food addicts talk about their daily struggles. While they shared their experiences, I'd just sit there and cry. I've been a pot smoker for 56 years. I love pot, but the one thing I dislike about its effect is the "marijuana munchies". Even when stoned nowadays, my excess indulgences don't begin to hold a candle to those earlier binges. Yet I still suffer bouts of remorse and shame afterwards. I never buy junk food. We snack on nuts and dried fruits, primarily... or when we don't snack, my husband & I incorporate these things into regular meals. If I purchase anything else we might snack on, I'm careful to read the ingredients list on the container before I buy. I encourage you to try kicking the sugar habit, even if your weight is fine. Much of the harm you could be doing to yourself is internal and systemic, even if you are thin. Kicking this deadly habit will add years to your life, and life to your years.

This is the first time of hearing from anyone that fasting could possibly help resolve the issue. Good job ! Hope it helps someone else. By the way, even though I no longer have my gall bladder, I am carnivore and do not take supplements to aid in my digestion with the fats I eat.

When I first started keto 6 years ago I developed gall bladder problems. Had lots of diarrhea. Had the shoulder pain and the gall bladder pain. I fixed it with Ox bile salt supplements. I also took lipase with it to help break up the fat in the meantime. The gall bladder problems cleared up after a few weeks and I haven't had any issues in the years since.

[@brianfox771]

@@Astrid6981 It's called 'Referenced Pain'; for some weird reason you'll sometimes feel pain somewhere else other than the actual site. Probably has to do with the way the pain signals travel up the nerve to the Brain. For example feeling sharp pain in your right shoulder or arm during a heart attack. What you are probably feeling is your Gall Bladder or Liver stressing out producing/excreting the bile necessary for Lipid digestion. You also might have Gall Bladder stones (hardened bile nuggets). As long as the stones aren't too large, they'll pass but with some discomfort. Taking Ox Bile salts and lipase enzymes will reduce stress on your gall bladder, help with fat digestion and might work upstream to help break up some of those stones. Might take a month or two. If it gets worse, definitely see a doctor. Personally, I wouldn't recommend a strict carnivore diet, at least not for very long; but you do you. It is often argued that there are no essential carbohydrates, but I'd argue there is one: Fiber. I would suggest at least a large serving of leafy green vegetables like a 'Spring Mix' salad to go with your meals.

Dr. Ekberg you are the best! Somehow you manage to organize and distill lots of information in an understandable format. The gall bladder information is particularly helpful because most of us lay people have no clue how that works and tooooo many gallbladders are being taken out resulting in a whole different set of problems. I can share this with people who are even more clueless than myself. Also walking me thru the macros again will hopefully help me drop these last 30 stubborn pounds! Thank you!

This vid is 5 months old at the time I’m watching. Strayed away from keto to a carb count lifestyle with initial success, followed by unbeatable cravings. I just switched back to very low carb, keto.

Lemon & Olive Oil is a great Gallbladder cleanse! I was scheduled for a GB removal. I did the cleanse and the doctor did another ultrasound. He said my GB was as "clean as a baby"!

[@OkImJustCommenting]

That’s awesome!!!!

[@jimdrummer816]

How much and how often did you take the lemon and olive oil?

[@ronedee]

@@jimdrummer816 There are 3 methods online. #1. the 24hr. method, which isn't for the weak of stomach! You fast for 12 hours. no solid foods. Then lying on your right side, you drink 2 ozs. of olive oil followed by 1 oz of lemon juice every 15 minutes for 6 hours. Approximately 6 to 12 hours afterwards you will expell the gallstones in a bm or 2. Mosly liquid comes out and if you are adventurous you can stretch a cheese cloth across the bowl and catch the stones! I did. Very amazing! One was the size of a ping pong ball! They dissolved in a week, from the lemon that removed them. #2 is the week method; consists of eating one small salad 2-3 times a day with the same amounts of lemon juice & oil. During the week, you CANNOT eat any other foods. Just plain salads, consisting of greens. No fats or sugars, meat proteins or dairy included. #3 is the month method, also called the "maintenance" method; several green salads per week, 5-7 days with the same amounts of lemon and oil. The restrictions on foods would be fats and anything that attributes to gallbladder pain and discomfort. It's been a while (10 years) so you may want to do your research online to confirm the methods are correct or haven't changed? Also...very important: DO NOT atempt the 24hour cleanse if you are in severe GB pain and/or running a temperature! It means the GB is inflammed and you won't be able to expell the stones!! Seek medical attantion it will need to be removed!

Thank you for adding to this video the information starting at 19:24, explaining the necessity of reducing the total amount of calories consumed after you have become fat adapted, in order to start burning the fat off the body. Reducing the amount of fat consumed is the mechanism for changing the percentage of Carb/Protein/Fat in the diet, You must end up reducing the total number of calories consumed in order to lose weight. This truth escaped me for many years because I was focusing on the benefits of eating more good fats.

When I learned about the dietary fat story, I restarted the keto lifestyle but on micrometer I was not reaching my potassium daily requirements. Still struggling with that but I am getting closer.

Well I really want to say thank you very much for everything, here’s some topics I really wish you make some videos about -body recomposition -what to eat before and post workout -how often you should exercise during the week (and should it be successive or every other day) Ps: for my workout, I mostly did walking uphill for 4hrs, and indoor cycling, and indoor rowing, I have all my data tracked with Fitbit including my food weighted and logged everyday, I did some glucose blood test at home also logged and , one test of urine ketones test (that’s how I knew I’m in ketosis), my weight logged almost every day using a good brand home scale, I can share with you all my data if you want it. An other thing I think I should mention, is I’m a muslim so I do the fasting in ramadan and I do some fasting from time to time, and at any other days I do omed at 8pm, I don’t do drinking or drugs or smoking or pork meat, we mostly do Mediterranean food but I have my own recipes now clean of any processed food.

Or should you switch it up sometimes? 2) Is it all the fats that are bad and cause gallbladder problems? Or is it only certain ones and in certain amounts? 3) What if you already developed right shoulder pain and right abdominal pain? What do you do then? Thank you so much for this video.

With time, you should be able to find a comfortable balance. You know what foods are poison to your body: ALL processed foods! If You have reached your goal thru keto/carnivore, you no longer have cravings. To maintain your weight, watch the calories. The rest of your life: a matter to conscientiously commit to veggies, protein and healthy fats and water; sleep, exercise and keeping stress at bay (meditation/ prayer/yoga/ breathing exercises) Take Mr. Ekberg's lifestyle as your guiding light/guru.

[@briand5379]

In my opinion, #1 is all most people need to know. I used to think counting net carbs was the only thing you needed to do on Keto, but I realized that logic was flawed, you should monitor your caloric intake as well then if you plateau you can make adjustments. If you're not losing weight on Keto, you're eating too many calories. You need to either up your activity, lower the calories, or a combination of both. One more thing to include, be careful cutting your calories because if you're too aggressive thinking it will make you lose more, you risk slowing your metabolism down. Shoot for a 250-500 deficit till you're losing no more than 0.5% of body weight a week, and hold it there, making adjustments as time goes by.
