Intermittent fasting causes CARDIOVASCULAR DEATH? - Doctor Reacts

[@LimitLessLindy]

2+ years on the carnivore diet. 500 lb weight loss (not a typo). I eat intuitively, 1 or 2 meals a day, usually a 6-8 hour window. Doctor ordered an echo cardiogram and I passed. Heart is strong ! I was dying at 750+ lbs, but now I am thriving! Intermittent fasting is ideal for me.

[@itzakpoelzig330]

Amazing!

[@ritahaden3084]

Congrats your health is your wealth🎉

[@andersdroid]

HOLY CRAP! You just stole your life back from the reaper… I don’t know you but you’ve given me a reason to celebrate! Nothing short of incredible 🎉

[@AndreaSwiedler]

That is jaw droppingly amazing, Congratulations on choosing you! ❤🎉

Dr Westman since following your advice on low carb and intermittent fasting for the last 12months I have gone from 90 to 70kg in weight and have reversed my T2 diabetes. I followed my diabetic diet from my Dr for 10 yrs, on meds and didn’t lose weight or waistline. Since following you I have reduced my waistline and had to donate so many clothes to charity. Thank you for your advice and your sound counsel, I am forever indebted to you. Terry Shutt retired cop uk

@terryshutt2034 Didi you follow Dr.Westman's page 4 protocol or counting 20 total carbs?

[@PhiIosophyGeek]

Dr. Westman is the best

[@bettyjohnson2964]

Great example of just how many lies we are being told!! Many people will see the headline and not check it out!! Thanks for sharing!!

[@fredsmit3481]

Doc, congratulations on watching Dr. Boz's videos. You can learn a lot from her about real keto diets. She measures her ketones and she knows that when she is not in ketosis, then she is NOT on a keto diet. Maybe you can debunk the fake "keto" diets where influencers call their diets keto but then tell people that nutritional ketosis is not a goal of their keto diet :-)

[@shiplesp]

What is so nefarious is the fact that the American Heart Association chose to put out a press release about this poster.

[@chadfitch3293]

Seriously?

[@shiplesp]

@@chadfitch3293 Yep. Look it up on the press releases on their site.

[@lindamorgan2678]

who is "This poster" and what article ?

[@shiplesp]

@@lindamorgan2678 In this case the "poster" isn't a who, but a what - a physical poster (like you hang on a wall) that was the entirety of the research from the meeting.

[@lloydhlavac6807]

Thank you Dr Westman, as once again you are the voice of reason in the murky world of nutrition science.

[@DrJuliusG]

Toss another “study” on the nutrition “science” dumpster fire.

[@jy4893]

😂You got that right!

[@xhappymasksalesmenx4092]

We have overcomplicated food for so long. Eat meat until full and don't eat when not hungry. Drink when thirsty

[@johnnafarrell3336]

Exactly it’s not rocket science but also include eggs

[@MamaHand1949]

Interesting thing in using the 12 to 16 hour window. You get to include diabetics on the American diabetic diet because they always have you eat a snack before you go to bed. So immediately you’re including a group that has a precursor to heart problems as your average person.

[@jobrown8146]

I agree.

[@Padraigp]

Wouldnt they not be in the intermittent fasting group if theyre eating at night?

[@robyn3349]

Thank you! We surely are not in charge of the news!

[@proudchristian77]

Sweet heart's, I have been fasting for yrs , hrs & days , I no no die from it , I loose wt ! 💝🚴‍♀️

[@proudchristian77]

All them kids on tv in their drama that their in ,whatch out when they grow up , they be needing something they didn't get , & its how u get alcoholics & drugies & extra Big people's, offend then while their to young & tramizie them u can , expect drug problems, Head's up ! 💝🚴‍♀️

[@sharonquesnel2427]

My CAC score just came back 0 !! Fasting 2 years!!! No heart disease for me!

[@IQTech61]

I respect your choice to review this video however, I respectfully disagree with your statement that she might be doing it to prove that she can do it. Dr. Boz has done a great deal of work to create Keto support groups across the country. If she is responding to this dubious study, it is because her people are asking her about the study.

[@jobrown8146]

I agree. I find videos like this helpful in teaching me what to look out for.

[@gbh7241]

This story was all over my news feed. I believe also the study was said to be done by Chinese researchers of people in England.? Imagine getting that survey question and bothering to even answer it carefully. Im sure there would be a lot of "whatever who cares" attitudes. Amazed it got published by the news at all.

[@chadfitch3293]

As always thank you Dr Westman for taking your valuable time to highlight how these studies work. This is very important to me. The news floods us with this daily and it’s difficult for the average person to know what is fact from fiction.

[@Padraigp]

How did they find 43 thousand peopke intermittent fasting? And over the course of how many years?

[@WalkingOneLegAtATime]

They didn’t

[@eringo-bragh4243]

Bonferroni correction for the statistical geeks; you can theoretically get around this IF you specify what changes you expect (hypotheses) ahead of time, but I believe a lot of researchers cheat on this & act like "Oh yeah, that's what we were looking for"

[@janedoe1404]

Everyone needs to do what's best for them. I stopped carnivore because my remnant cholesterol was too high. Switched to super low fat protein, moderate high fiber vegetables and no added fat of any kind. My cholesterol went from 275 to 221 in 2 weeks. Remnant cholesterol from 19 to 9, which is still high, it needs to be under 4.

[@juliawigger9796]

Who told you that? Sponsored pharmaceutical studies?

[@johnnafarrell3336]

Well if that’s true! I’d be dead! I suffered from congested heart failure , I’m 16 months in on carnivore and I’m heathy had an Echo done valves are clean as a whistle! What other foolishness! Geez wonder what else they’re going to throw out next 🙄🙄🙄

[@jobrown8146]

Thank you. Discussing this type of thing and pointing out the flaws is helpful for teaching people what to look out for when assessing something.

[@dasfahrer8187]

The damaging effects of putting out misleading info like this is that companies, like insurance companies, can abuse it to not pay out insurance policies, for example. The medical community really needs to do better because they're just further discrediting their entire industry when this kind of bad info gets released.

[@charleneschumacher5861]

It is astounding to note how very little many doctors know of healthy diet, and how poorly they themselves eat.

[@margomoore4527]

I never studied statistics, so that graph is chinese to me (I studied Greek, so…)

[@jobrown8146]

I had to do some statistics back in 2000 when I was studying Information Technology. I realised back then that you can make statistics say whatever you want them to say.

[@leaterry1504]

Is there a list of keto friendly doctors somewhere? I'm desperately wanting to find a doc who will help me get off my meds if possible! I need to keep my insurance and I am on Social Security 67 years old.

[@davidmiller8332]

That might be the stupidest thing I've ever heard.

[@Laltoots677]

I naturally fast I’m a late eater don’t feel hungry till 5pm so eat till sometimes midnight as I’m hungry then I can’t physically eat early in the day never had even from being a child. I used get told off for not eating breakfast

[@cassieoz1702]

Is it just me or us the crap reporting getting more desperate?

[@EvanEdwards]

People who get casts are way more likely to have broken bones. Therefore, casts should not be given. That way, nobody will have broken bones. That said, poster presentations are fine when understood in the context of what they are -- they are intended to be quick introductions to even very preliminary research, including things like why they are seeking grants to do research. They can also summarize complete research. Sometimes undergrads or new grad students will present posters on well known topics just as practice in how to present concepts (later on, presenting a poster on your thesis is a common requirement for a masters or doctorate). I've even seen one brand new professor at Vanderbilt have a nearly empty poster presented with his name and interests because he was just starting a new research group and was about to start recruiting research students, but did not have a finalized set of research he would be working on.

[@SuperZimpatico]

Ayuno intermitente es lo mejor que puede existir en el mundo 🌍, yo perdí de casi 100 kilos a 70 kilos , and my blood pressure excelente and I will do it for the rest of my life.

[@annabelleabueva7007]

I didnt understand a word they said. But im sure theyre saying do not believe the headline.

[@DanielLehan]

There's science, and then there's God. It's o.k. to fast,but make sure you hydrate once in a while.

[@itzakpoelzig330]

Aren't scientists embarrassed to publish shlock like this under their real names?

[@tinman8972]

Intermittent fasting shaped our species because game wasn't always available and we lacked the ability to preserve flesh. How could a frequency of feeding that shaped us have also been a source of increased individual mortality and failure to thrive?

[@scp240]

It’s crucial to eat frequently and to consume lots of junk in order to keep the game going. The title of my poster presentation.

[@ferosemariehass4576]

😂

[@chrisminifie219]

I’m going to die young! LOL

[@wgterry73ify]

I restrict myself to a 6 hour eating window.

[@jamescalifornia2964]

😳❗️You will live longer than you think ...

[@ny10980]

So whatever I read of this pseudo science quotes originating from the famous idiots at the AHA, I did a word search for any implication to the keto diet or being carnivore. I couldn't find any references here. So they must be referring to the simpletons still eating the SAD diet that is also recommended by the AHA. Fasting on Carnivore is natural...because you aren't always ravenous. It is just a little willpower to stop 3 hours before you go to bed. And I am just not hungry before the early afternoon.

“AI reveals huge amounts of fraud in medical research DW news” An interesting U-tube video. I don’t know what to make of this because I don’t understand how AI comes to this conclusion except it confirms my bias 😅

[@dan-qe1tb]

Looks good on Dung. Intermittent fasting has no benefit beyond caloric restriction even if the statement turns out to be false.

[@dontfit6380]

There’s no benefit to the Autophagy from fasting?

Dude, you're so late to this story. It has been covered multiple times by a bunch of other influencers 0:01

1 second in, I didn’t catch that 😮😅

Basically are they saying if you stop eating at any time of the day it’s unhealthy 😂

So what ? Let the Man post what he wants.

Not too late. It's still circulating. Just this morning my wife sent it to me. Grrr...
