Speaking as someone with ME - going low carb 5/6 years ago radically transformed my symptoms (not a cure though). I used to crash every afternoon was horrendous - felt sooo awful. The moment I went low carb the regular crashes stopped. My baseline stabilised as my blood sugars did. Though I still had low energy - i had much less malaise (and nothing is less energy than those crashes). Then February this year I managed to go keto. My energy improved a little, and my mental clarity and brain fog also improved (which at that point was at a level enough to scare me and to cause a doctor to suggest I had early onset dementia). Fat burning is amazing for my energy levels in that it keeps my baseline even steadier than before and no more ‘hangry’ episodes.

Way more energy on this diet than previous to this diet. As for my weight, after my initial weight loss, my weight has been maintained without trying for years.

We have 2 metabolisms for a reason. We’ve evolved on both. During the summer and fall months, fruits growing on trees was an easy source of energy for us, and it was higher carb, less fat during these months. During fall and winter, when there was no fruit growing, we relied on eating animals, which is more fat and practically zero carbs. Both eating styles work well. Do them both.

I didn't know that's what they were, but after a yummy plate of bacon and eggs? I would get super hyper and then tank. For a while, I thought it was blood sugar, but now I know it was dopamine and adrenaline. Crazy how genetics and epigenetics can play a role as well. :) I do miss bacon and eggs, though. Now I can do eggs on sourdough.

[@btwbrand]

Carnivore includes fat. More fat than you think and ate. A good starting ratio is 20% of your calories to be protein and 75%-80% fat derived. If your body doesn't need it it will pass through. This is the biggest mistake people make when attempting carnivore. Protein is for repairing and building cells, fat is for energy. Eating carbs is providing a source of fat with an extra step between you and the fat your body wants. ( Carbs are packaged as lipids [fat] and stored or used and if your body wants glycogen (sugar) it can convert it from the fat) It would still be carnivore and give the same results if you ate more fat but your filling that role with carbs. This is an explanation of why carnivore didn't work as you expected not a demand on how anyone should eat.

[@carascottvo]

@@btwbrand No, I met with Stephanie Person, and we talked about that and I upped my fat for a couple of months, thinking that was key. When I got my gene DNA test back, I realized that I can’t have mass quantities of protein or fat at one time. I’m a slow methylator, so I can’t take all that fat. Like I said, to each his own. I wasn’t demanding that anybody do the things that I do. I just found what worked for me.

For the record, when keto dieters talk about low carbs, they're talking about low NET carbs, fiber carbs or "slow carbs" as you put them, are essential to the ketogenic diet. They are not counted towards your total carbohydrate count when determining your "low carb" status. So if to be in keto you needed under 30g net carbs, you could still eat 30g of fiber a day, and still have enough room to have another 29g of "fast carbs" and still be in ketosis, even though your "total carbs" are at 59g. Your net carbs are still only 29g.

When I changed to a low carb diet and increased good fats intake, my need for insulin went to zero units. Can you explain that?

[@svenmorgenstern9506]

You're a type II diabetic with moderate to severe insulin resistance, but your pancreas is still making enough insulin for typical body processes. By switching to a low carb diet, your body doesn't need as much insulin, only enough to facilitate amino acid uptake (fatty acids don't require insulin to facilitate uptake) and a small amount for dietary sugars. Hence, your need for exogenous insulin (e.g. insulin shots) is reduced to zero.

To increase glucose oxidation you must take a big supplimentation of vitamin B3 and B1, especially if you are coming from keto. People who get diabetes are not because they eat too much carbs or sugar, they just don´t have the ability to oxidize glucose efficiently, most probably because they have hypotyroidism and tyroid is responsible to use glucose and transform it to ATP, energy.

Calorie restriction is not the best way to lose weight and be healthy at the same time. I'm so tired of hearing "restrict calories" "calories in, calories out". Scientifically, it all comes down to hormonal response, not on calories. And because the word "calorie" is so annoying and overused I'm gonna say energy used. The reason so many people (including our ancestors) thrive on low carb or no carb diets or woe is because of the hormonal responses our bodies have when adapted to those ways of eating. We might be carnivore or omnivore, idk. But we are definitely obligate carnivores. Either way, calories don't matter, but the way you use your energy does. Even so, some carnivores don't use much energy and are still thriving. Plants=survive Meat=thrive.

He's correct although humans cannot process fiber at all. It can and does ferment in the gut and colon and that causes gas and even mold. Vegans get a lot of gas especially raw vegans.

What about people who are NOT trying to lose weight? I want to hear some insight into how naturally slim people should eat in relation to carbs. I tried a low carb diet and I felt like I was going to die. Shaky, weak, like the body was starving. Couldn't exercise. Resumed eating carbs and symptoms resolved. I don't crash or experience irritability or sugar cravings, ever, in relation to food. I do get Hungry though, and find it difficult to go long periods without eating. I feel best when I have plenty of good carbs in my diet.

[@cincin4515]

Lotsa added fruit, veggies and even starchy spud or rice at night.

[@banderas2000]

Hey bro kind of in the same boat. I was eating a lot of extra carbs so. Y blood sugar got high so I cut them out to very small amounts but I felt like crap still so a bit. No energy the last two days. But feel a little better when I eat more carbs. I am active and workout so I feel e need more carbs

[@noemarie8]

same here. we’re not crazy right ?

[@robertolson3115]

Complex carbs I believe is another word to describe slow carbs.

[@cincin4515]

No. Complex carbs are any starches like bread, rice pasta (glucose). Simple carbs are sugar (fructose, sucrose & lactose) milk, sugar, honey, fruit. It's the shape of the molecule. Your confusing it with dietician speak.

[@arth8265]

@@cincin4515 Glucose is simpe carb. Slow carbs are just carbs with low glycemic index which means usually quite high amounts of fiber. It is "slow" because it will not cause blood glucose peaks. It'll gradually raise blood glucose.

Can keto diet work while on the Thyroid meds Methimazole??

[@lindaeasley5606]

Certain veggies are naturally low in carbs. Just avoid corn and potatoes and you are eating a healthy low carb meal and guaranteeing weight loss

Got cured of PCOS with the herbal medicine from DR RORPOPOR HERBAL on KZbin whose channel was the primary convincing platform that made me use the herbs.

[@tentamalaska]

I ate carbs and weighed over 300 lbs. And was diabetic, my thyroid was messed up. I had flakey scalp, major edema in my feet and lower legs. I went keto low carb and all those symptions decreased. Then I switch to carnivore, and reversed my diabeties, my thyroid panels returned to normal, and my edema is completely gone. I can see not only veins in my feet but my tendons. I also lost 70 pounds in 3 months. I do not need carbs. And all my labs are normal now. Not better, normal. My nuclear heart scans showed no blockages or other abnormalities or damage. So somebody has some wires crossed somewhere.

[@binathere2574]

Yes there is a difference between junk food carbs and healthy carbs. Healthy unprocessed carbs will cause weightloss. I know a few people losing weight with healthy carbs.

[@ItzJMann]

@@binathere2574just because you lose weight doesn’t mean your healthy, or protects you from diseases. You can do illegal drugs and lose weight since it can curb your appetite. Carbs aren’t essential meaning you don’t need it to survive at all.

[@akanecortich8197]

agreed - vegetable carbs, which are usually very low carbs or very slow. But potato, rice, flours, breads, sugars spike inflammation and that allows plaque build up. I got my HbA1c down to 5.1 doing very low carb, now my B.Sugar rarely spikes out of the 6 range after a meal. For those talking about the Japanese, please also note they regularly eat lots of fermented foods (ie Natto) that contain large quantities of vitamin K2 which protects against elastin degradation in the vascular network, (ie keeps arteries flexible and impervious to plaque accumulation). Also they follow a very strict eating pattern and do not snack.

[@metasek1098]

But you aren't getting fiber, antioxidants, or nutrition.

[@jamescatlover123]

They do snack that's why they have a lot of vending machines and convenience stores.

[@contrarian717]

Snacking was my main ain for decades

[@0lilia1]

I no longer eat carbs And I feel so much better. No bread 🥜🌰🍞🥐🥖🫓🥨🥯🥞🧇🧀🍔🥪🌭🍕🍟🌮🎂🍪🍩🎂🥡🍜🍿🍚🍙 no potatoes, no rice, no pasta. My blood pressure and diabetes are low , hopefully my vision will get better too.

[@marcopolio6591]

Bro, don’t kill yourself so much lol. Eat something carby from time to time.

[@Gorillatagvr7]

I think it just comes down to what someone is able to tolerate. Everyone is different.

[@lancebaker1374]

At 1:35 "non-starchy potatoes"???? That is impossible. All potatoes are "starchy".
