For me, I started out with carnivore. I ate nothing but meat, salt, and water for about two weeks and after that now keto very low carbohydrates no breads pastas on and on just good meats, cheeses, good fat and I’ve lost tons of weight. I’ve never felt this good in my life I’m 46 and I feel 20. I also I am wheelchair dependent due to cerebral palsy. So I don’t burn a lot of calories on a given day like the average person I do when I go to the gym and do the hand cycle or lift weights, so this is been the only “diet” that I’ve ever had any success in losing weight and feeling better I don’t feel deprived at all because it’s Great food and I’m cooking it myself so I know what’s in it so if you’re on the fence you might want to give it a shot always talk to Dr.

0:00: 📚 Fat cells are not just inert energy storage depots, but also endocrine organs that secrete hormones and play a role in various bodily functions. 8:51: 📝 The traditional advice of eating less and exercising more for weight loss is flawed because it focuses on calorie restriction and can lead to increased hunger and rebound weight gain. Instead, the endocrine component, specifically insulin levels, should be prioritized to manipulate fat cell growth and shrinkage. 17:16: 💡 Insulin is a hormone that lowers blood glucose levels by allowing glucose to enter cells, but it also has an anabolic effect on all cells in the body, which can lead to insulin resistance. 27:34: 📈 Insulin resistance is a widespread health disorder caused by constantly elevated insulin levels, which is often overlooked due to the focus on glucose control. 33:16: 🔑 Insulin resistance is a survival mechanism in the body, but it can lead to various negative effects such as migraines, infertility, and increased risk of Alzheimer's disease. 41:51: 💡 Insulin resistance occurs when fat cells become insulin resistant, leading to the release of pro-inflammatory proteins and the spread of insulin resistance to other tissues in the body. 51:04: 📊 Insulin resistance can be determined through blood measurements such as fasting insulin levels and the ratio of triglycerides to HDL cholesterol. 1:03:08: 🥦 Lower insulin by controlling carbohydrates and prioritizing animal protein, while also focusing on improving sleep habits to lower stress levels. 1:06:25: ✅ To improve insulin resistance: lower stress, prioritize protein, fill remaining calories with fat, and practice intermittent fasting. 1:14:16: 💡 Wearing continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) can empower individuals to make their own dietary changes based on real-time glucose level feedback. 1:21:51: 🥤 The speaker discusses the digestion of protein and the potential impact of whey shakes on weight sensitivity.

To clarify his comment on proteins: He mentions egg white protein. He mentions not avoiding the fat that comes with protein. NOTE: the yoke of an egg is the necessary fat in the proper quantity needed for that particular egg white protein. i.e. never eat just the whites!

[@meatloafhead]

So funny, how well they taught every American to stop eating the yolks, then went on to say only the white!!! followed by many years of eggs are just plain old horrible! you’ll get strokes, diabetes or astronomically high cholesterol… The tv commercials I saw daily were endless, billboards across the nation too, like big bro was doing us peons some big old favor….

The migraine link to insulin resistance is critical information. I suffered from migraine headaches for decades. All I was ever offered were pills, never diet advice. I am now over migraines just by diet changes that I figured out on my own.

[@airphoenix88]

Such a great video! I’m 35 and I have lost 65lbs in the last 6 months by cutting out sugar gluten & dairy, only eating natural carbs, prioritizing my sleep, drinking only water & more of it and living a fasting lifestyle. I do OMAD but only short term, most days I have a 4-6 hour eating window with 2 meals but I try not to eat my meals at the same time every day, absolutely no snacking in between meals and some 24-72hr fasts every once in a while. I started at 285lbs on January 1st and lost the first 40lbs in 4 months with hardly any working out. When I did it was maybe 4-6 times a month that I would go with my friend to the gym and I would lift as heavy as I could and then walk on the treadmill on an incline for 30 minutes. For the last 6 years I have lost and regained the same 30 to 40lbs every year and it’s been so frustrating and discouraging. I’m so thankful that I found Dr. Jason Fung, Dr. Pradip Jamnadas & Dr. Mindy Pelz. Those 3 and videos like this have helped me learn how my body actually works and it’s amazing how our bodies can heal themselves. I have no loose skin even though I lost weight so fast, I had nerve damage from a C-Section 7 years ago that has now completely healed, my acne has cleared up and I’m even growing less gray hairs. I started the year in size 22 jeans and I’m now wearing size 10! I’m so excited to keep fighting for my health and to keep learning and soon I’m going to be out of the 200s and I have no doubt that I will be out of them for good.

Medical Doctors and Dermatologists said (HSV 1&2, Herpes zosters) do not have a medical cure because the virus is capable of hiding within the human cells, it remains protected from your immune system. Herpes isn't an incurable virus! your immune system has the tools to fight it back, But because it is able to lay dormant in protected cells, your immune system is unable to remove it from your body, But with strong reactive herbal medication, it is capable of getting rid of the virus gradually and totally from your body without any side effects, natural herbs kill the virus totally not just reducing the outbreaks. I just got my test result today after 7 days of using the herbal Medication and it came out Negative to both HSV 1&2.im so delighted I recommend this to anyone suffering from herpes virus.

Lower insulin resistance by lessening stress (in large part by getting more sleep) and four dietary tips: fewer carbs; prioritize high-quality protein (focus on animal protein, whey, egg whites); fill all remaining calories with fat (fat has no effect on insulin; focus on animal fat and fruit fats i.e. coconut, avocado, olives vis-a-vis oils...avoid soybean, cottonseed, canola oil); time-restricted eating/intermittent fasting. Also working your muscles stimulates an insulin-like effect of pulling glucose into the muscle despite insulin resistance. Do not finish working out by loading up on carbs because it will undo the benefit of the muscles synthesizing insulin on their own.

[@DABA2024]

Stephanie Loder, please look into Floressence Tea, the book used, on Amazon is The Essiac Report.....Canada. I turned my friend onto it for her stage 4 breast cancer. (Sorry we can't treat you anymore, it is causing more harm than good). Before 2016 it took 3 months or 4 boxes, do NOT use distilled water from plastic bottles. My friend lost insomnia at day 15, same as everyone. She showed her Oncologist on day 30ish, and he swore at her, threw the box, and forbid its use. She kept using, we used it full strength cold instead of hot. At arround 3.5 months he kept calling her back for new blood work, CAT SCAN , and tests she couldn't name, because the cancer showed up missing.

Hi Steph, thinking of you during this journey. Keep going. If you can add IF fasting, please do. I cut out carbs and found that okra (boiled) and beetroot helped me a lot when im hungry. Please dont give up on yourself. Xx also youtube had a page called popsugar which have mild fitness programs you can do sitting down. Another tip: when in fasting mode if it gets difficult. I used to chop large cucumbers and eat that all day till i ended my fast. I sometimes have around 5 long cucumbers a day. Helped me a lot.

[@wayne12693]

KELLI, That research sounds interesting. Years ago I had to do a thesis for my Master's degree, and remember how much work that was. If you're researching something that you're intersted in, like you seem to be doing, I could see where it could actually be fun. Speaking of insulin resistance, my ederly Mother has been type 2 diabetic for most of her life, and she is now totally off her insulin. After learning that insulin resistance could be caused by deficiencies in vanadium and chromium, I convinced her to give it a try, and it worked. She no longer takes insulin injections and her fasting glucose is normal, with her A1C around 5. She also eats high carb starchy foods and sugary things. She has never used a low carb or keto diet to control her glood sugar. I read that in the early 1900's before they had insulin, doctors were using these 2 trace minerals to treat T2 diabetes. As you know, insulin and diabetic pills are a billion dollar industry, so big pharma apparently suppressed this cure long ago. I think you are onto something with that insulin resistance connection to auto immune disorders. My mother has had Rheumatoid arthritis for years and since the vanadium and chromium has reversed her insulin resistance, the arthitis seems to have diappeared. She has also had a high uric acid and gout flares, which I recently learned is common in T2 diabetics. She hasn't had a gout flare since reversing her insulin resistance. Anyway, that research you are doing sounds interesting and you are obviously a very intelligent woman. I'd like to buy your book if you ever write one. Have you ever thought about writing a book?

Around 52:14 Dr. Bikman was talking about the triglycerides to HDL ratio being a marker for how insulin sensitive one is. So I did a self experiment where I did a 7 day water only fast and on day 5 I had my blood drawn. (I am super nerdy and wanted to see what happens to the body and blood markers when no food is consumed). Anyways, my pre fast level was tri: 38, HDL:78 making my ratio .48 (which is well below the 1.5 he mentioned). Then during the water fast, my triglycerides rose to 119 and HDL lowered to 61 making my ratio 1.95 (which would look like I’m insulin resistant despite my insulin being low due to no food and my body running off pure body fat.) Nonetheless, I just had blood drawn again and triglycerides lowered to 33 and HDL rose to 71 making my ratio back to .49, insulin sensitive once again! The human body is fascinating!!! ❤❤❤❤

[@sarasayshi]

This was such an informative podcast. I really appreciate the knowledge that was shared. I have been keto for almost 2 years and I incorporated alternate day fasting with it over the past year. I lost 25 lbs in the first 3 months of adding alternate day fasting but then I started switching things up and testing playing around with my carb intake and the next thing you know, I gained the 25 back. This discussion was really what I needed to hear to encourage me to continue with what works; a keto diet with fasting. I actually prefer Ketovore more because I have discovered that some veggies hurt my stomach and give me IBS. So I can tolerate a very small veggie intake. But I mostly eat fats and proteins.

Keto diet is pretty stupid tbh. And this coming from someone who did keto for months, I also did a 24 and a 28 day water only fast. You lost those 25lbs because one's body needs less water to process carbs. It's pretty simple. Eat a balanced diet slightly below your maintenance calories(approximately),sleep 8 hours, and eat food in this order to lower glucose and insuline spikes: fibers, proteins and fats, and lastly carbs. Try to get the recommended protein portion and that should help you keep hunger and cravings in check. Keto is not a sustainable diet. You should have bloodwork done but your liver and kidneys are under pressure with that diet.

A similar thing is happening with this low carb/keto thing. Atkins started it years ago, and alot of doctors are on YT acting as if they discovered all of this stuff.

So to summarize this amazing discussion : Small changes makes a big difference and can be a make or break to your health(specially the ones who have excess fat in the body) 1. Insulin resistance is the enemy - Cancer, Alzeihmers,Type 1,2,3 diabetes and a bunch of other health problems all lowering your life expectancy(for real) - high fat(fat cannot shrink without insulin being low - triggrs a response to Insulin which when fights tough battles with high glucose foods too often, turns resistant to that fight and the enemy keeps getting stronhger) 2. Switch to a low carb diet(dont eat high carb even after working out since it negates the improved insulin sensitivity achieved during and even after the workout) 3. Try intermittent fasting(where you have a balance between feeding and a fasted state instead of spiking insulin/eating every couple hours) 4.- STRESS - Reduced Stress means lower cortisol and adrenaline, that is insulin friendly and vice versa, easy solution= QUALITY SLEEP SCHEDULE So, low carb means less spike in Insulin - To do 1 To do 2: High protein diet and resistance training(overall anabolic state - catabolic only achieved when insulin functions properly haha) To do 3: Lower Stress- Connect to the environment, improve sleep quality To do 4 : Time restricted feeding / Intermittent Fasting To do 5 : ADD FATS to your diet. our bodies are not meant to process protein without fats(add in quality plant fats to your diet like avocados, olives and Coconut oil). Carbs only in form of low GI and preferably from fruits and vegetables while completely eliminating grains, corns and rice.

I have sleep apnea, and wake up many times a night sometimes in a panic, with adrenaline and cortisol dumps, causing my body to throw out glucose and then insulin. I was developing insulin resistance and did not know it, and every time the doctor did my blood work they said everything looked great and I was not diabetic blah blah.. I started gaining lots of weight unexplainedly suddenly gaining 60 lb in a few years without increase calories. Kept going back to the doctor and asking are you sure I don't have a metabolic syndrome, they sent me to an endocrinology clinic and confirmed I had low glucose, a high metabolic rate and told me that could not be the problem, then I went to a functional doctor and they tested my fasting insulin and several other factors like cortisol and said you are suffering from too much cortisol, insulin resistance and leptin resistance and that's why like a switch, your body has started gaining weight and you're suffering these terrible headaches. I cut out all sugar except for what's naturally in fruits and veggies and a migraines are gone, the weight is coming off, the heavy menstrual cycle will hopefully improve. Listening to you I now know that it takes years to become insulin / Leptin resistant and the signs are there if you know what to look for long before you get sick. My triglycerides and that HDL ratio you talk about were a problem 20 years ago and nobody raised this as an issue. It's appalling that modern doctors do not understand this and even endocrinologists told me I had nothing to worry about... What goes on with the medical community? Why don't they know this? It's the epidemic of our time and they don't know it and they're sending people away, leaving them without hope and without tools while they get sick, suffer low quality of life and die.
