Most people on the keto diet avoid seed oils

[@Jen.K]

I'm not sure that's true. If you are eating a lot of processed keto snacks and commercially prepared keto foods, they can still contain seed oils and still be sold as keto friendly.

[@cmfernandez9283]

My sex life was shot until I lost 70 lbs on a keto/carnivore diet. My extremely poor health led to erectile issues and a complete lack of libido. At 38, I was only getting busy once or twice a month. Once I had taken off about 30 lbs and after coming off blood pressure and cholesterol meds, my sex drive rushed back, the erectile issues went away and my wife and I have rekindled our physical connection to a place where it was when we first met 10 years ago. This is just my personal experience, but it was a life changing one.

I had fatty liver, told doctor I was going to do Keto. He didn't like the idea but he knew I was going to do it, I was 75 pounds over weight. While on keto testing showed the indicators from my liver within 6 months were moving in right direction and within a year all the indicators showed I was within normal range. Imaging of my liver showed my liver was healing, that continues today. The doctor that was against Keto, after seeing my weight loss and blood test showing improvements he asked if I was willing to talk to some of his patients. Today I am not looking at losing weight but maintaining my weight at a level I haven't been since high school days while playing sports. I am 77 but I am at the weight I was at 16, 17 years old. I have been on Keto for over 3 years, but following information from Dr Westman and others my health has improved greatly.

Seed oils are a no no in keto or Csrnivore. This was the first thing I cut out of my diet along with sugar, grains and all processed foods when I started keto 2 yrs ago. I’ve been carnivore (ketovore) most of that time and am down 101 lbs and have reversed diabetes, high BP, IBS, migraines, fatigue, brain fog, arthritis, acid reflux, depression, anxiety and a lot more. But according to this “QUACK” in a white coat, keto or carnivore is dangerous and unsustainable… how ridiculous.

Obesity, diabetes, arthritis, neuropathy, heart disease, asthma, cancer, you name it. All eating the mainstream 'healthy' diets and enjoying their favorite snacks and drinks. Scary indeed.

[@OpinionatedOG184]

It amazes me that the last two years I’ve completely turned my life around when it was in a dead spiral! I’ve lost well over 75 pounds from a 46 waist now a 34 waist. I have a neck again! Plus I can wear the clothes I desire instead of what’s simply available to me. And I have friends who walk around overweight with feet so swollen they can’t even wear shoes and are forced to wear slides. And when I mention keto they respond with “ I need carbs for energy, plus I can’t give up bread “. I then stay focused on myself.

[@Papacarnivore15]

Yeah I work retail and see all the customers come in having a hard time walking, on walkers, wheel chairs, using canes, or just waddling in like wounded ducks, obese and sick and many of them are much younger than me and I’m 62. So sad… I’ve been keto and now carnivore for 23 mos and am not only down 101 lbs to my lowest weight since I was 20 (199 lbs, was 300)…. I’ve reversed T2 diabetes, high BP, fatty liver disease, IBS, acid reflux, migraines, chronic arthritis, fatigue, brain fog, depression, anxiety and a lot more… I’ve never looks or felt better since I was just out of high school and just hope more people will adopt a keto or carnivore diet and urge their best physical and mental health like I did. 😊

Keto Since 2013! Weight went from 103kg (227 lbs) down to 75kg (165 lbs) in the first 2 years. 2 marathons, 8 half marathons, followed after the weight loss. Bottom line my weight has been managed PLUS workouts and gym training all got better for me. My years from age 47 to now (58) are the healthiest yet! Also major thanks to you Dr. Westman, I have been following your diet advice since I stumbled across a very early video of yours on the internet.

[@hurleyrosa]

I feel great, lost 30 pounds. I have kept off for a year. But my LDL has gone through the roof! My doctor had a heart attack when he saw my number!!

[@Papacarnivore15]

I’ve been trying very hard as a carnivore for the past 2 yrs to give myself a massive heart attack.. But all my new way of eating has done is to make me healthier and thinner!!!😊😊

[@Jen.K]

When you start digging into the science, you find out that the links between high LDL levels and heart disease are not conclusive and other factors like insulin resistance, metabolic health in general and smoking are much higher risk factors than LDL levels alone. There seems to be a correlation, shown in some studies, between high LDL levels and heart attacks, but other factors prove to be more of a causation and LDL is only part of the picture. All cause mortality is lower in people with higher levels of LDL. If everything else is great, high LDL levels alone is not something to worry about. I'm not a doctor, these are just things I've learned by doing my own research.

[@dustbinner]

Let’s see here. After two years on keto/carnivore, I’ve lost over 100lbs, dropped my blood pressure from an avg 151/94 to 108/67, lowered my fasting glucose from avg 122 to 102 (still some work to do here), and two autoimmune issues (eosinophilic esophagitis and psoriatic arthritis) have disappeared. I went from being a couch potato due to nearly constant joint pain to doing just under 100,000m per month on a rowing machine. I also lift weights now and my fat percentage on the impedance scale dropped from 41 to 23%. I feel amazing as a 53 year-old male who barely two years ago felt like he was dying. But yeah, I’ll just go ahead and trust Jameson Luskay and quit everything I’ve been doing 😂

[@inhisdefense]

On Carnivore, which is really a stricter keto, I have the shortest and cleanest shopping list ever. As soon as someone has a product or service they would like to sell me, I IMMEDIATELY question EVERYTHING they have to say. (eg. LMNT sponsors, yup electrolytes are good, nope I'm not spending that kind of money when I can make it myself for pennies on the dollar).

[@Papacarnivore15]

I forgot to mention that after doing keto and now Csrnivore, at age 62, my testosterone levels have gone from 200 to now 600+ and my sex drive and function is back to where it was when I was 19 yrs old. My girlfriend is happy…😊😊😅

[@Bob_Hines_Entertainment]

I recently had a full panel blood test, and the results were incredible-every single marker has improved compared to last year. I’ve been eating fewer than 20 carbs a day, sometimes as low as 5, and at 52 years old, my body is clearly healing. One big win: my fatty liver, which I’ve had for 15 years, is no longer an issue. On top of that, my insulin resistance has improved significantly, dropping from 4.6 to 1.4 based on my lab results. I’m amazed at the progress and can only hope this healing doesn’t come with any surprises like Keto D! ;)

I am over 4 years keto/ketovore. My body fat is down, libido is up, sexual performance is up, my mood is improved, and I easily grow lots of facial hair. I really don't think I have any issues with testosterone based on observing my own situation. IMO, keto is an entirely natural metabolic state. The fossil record is clear that for the last 1-2 million years humans were primarily carnivorous. Many of the problems with human nutrition have their genesis in the agricultural revolution that began 10-12 thousand years ago, which is quite recent when compared to millions of years. It has become much worse in recent modern times due to the extremely unnatural ingredients and unnatural concentrations of carbs that have pervaded the typical American diet. Keto has given me the tools to save my own life. My own experience is that is exactly what has happened over the last 4 years.

If I remember my class lectures correctly - it was 50 years ago now - most blood tests offer a “snapshot in time”. When it comes to hormones, the time of day the sample was taken and activity level prior to the test can influence the results. We now know that recent sleep and stress can also have a detrimental effect. So to “blame” a low testosterone level simply on diet is ridiculous! I’d say that “blaming” diet alone for most hormone issues is rather shortsighted. Can it be a part of an ongoing problem? Of course, I would not claim it couldn’t be. However, more needs to be considered than just dietary issues.

`well listening to Thomas the impression I got is that he still does not eat a lot of carbs.If I had all those muscles and was very insulin sensitive I would love to add in a little honey too and some sweet potatoes.

Notice how this person never described any specific symptomology, just talked about elevated levels of arbitruary markers and such. An absolute clown no one should take any nutritional advice from.

Could someone please take their time machine back hundreds of thousands of years ago,if not longer and tell our ancestors they are doing it wrong. Thank you. 😊

I was strict keto for 5 years before it was a fad. After about 4 years i developed elevated fasting blood sugar because of gluconeogenisis. My testosterone tanked, my sleep was awful and my competitive running suffered. I then went back to 50% healthy carbs, 30% protein and 20% fats. I now enjoy a wide variety of foods and all my problems resolved. Keto is too restrictive and cultish.

What is your age? It seems you are very athletic, this is the need for more carbs.

@@sandramorton5510 64 years old. Male and a competitive runner. Living example of the dangers of keto. Carbs should not be demonized. Not referring to whole flour pasta etc but referring to healthy carbs in beans lentils berries and potatoes

How the heck can good food make you ill? This is what he's trying to sell you. He's nuts.

I can "do it" twice a night no problem at 42. Pretty sure it doesn't have any bad effects on testosterone.

What is the meta data he is quoting

[@ToriLynnH]

Increase A systematic review and meta-analysis found that ketogenic diets (KD) can increase testosterone levels, especially with very low-calorie ketogenic diets (VLCKD). A 2014 study also found that people who followed a keto-style diet had higher testosterone levels than those who ate a Western diet.

After watching this “QUACK” in a white lab coat talk about how keto is somehow dangerous and unsustainable, I just had to laugh out loud. Here are my results of doing keto and now carnivore for 23 mos… I’m not only down 101 lbs (300 lbs to now 199, my lowest weight since I was 19 yrs old and I’m 62)… I’ve reversed/cured my T2 diabetes, high BP, fatty liver disease, migraines, IBS, acid reflux, chronic arthritis, fatigue, brain fog, depression, anxiety and a lot more. I’ve never been healthier or happier in my life, and had I not found keto and carnivore, I don’t believe I would be alive for very much longer. Now if honestly believe I will live until 100 yrs old or older in excellent physical and mental health and live to see my great grandchildren.😊

Seriously the keto Delano or whatever is his name drove me on to eating absolute rubbish processed food when I was on keto. I’m glad I found a much easier and healthier version (carnivore) 2 1/2 years ago.

I'm going to go pick some carb's off of my Carb tree, just like my ancestors did so i can go fight a tiger.

[@MyFatAdaptedLife]

Cholesterol being a precurser to testosterone is called the "steroidogenic pathway", and is what contributed to my T-score skyrocketing from 168 mg/dL to 655 mg/dL. That's a 300% increase in T-score after 18 months on carnivore. But hey, he's wearing a white lab coat, so he must know what he's talking about. 🤔

Can someone explain how meat has Too much saturated fat and PUFA at the same time? LoL

[@cassieoz1702]

Yes, is this a matter of lab number or clinical manifestation? Too many younger docs treat lab results, not people
