    I don’t think he’s saying that decreasing calories won’t help you lose weight. I think he’s saying counting calories is a bandaid, for a problem that could be solved a better way. 100 calories of refined sugar is way worse than 100 calories of protein.

      Insulin doesn't play that big of a role. I wouldn't go days w/o eating too often. That sounds like a really bad idea. Whether you're counting calories now or not you're still eating at maintenance. It wouldn't hurt you to cut that steak in half and have those calories in carbs instead.

    The fructose story I had heard before was that it is converted directly into fat and so is only indirectly available as energy.

    • @888jucu
      @888jucu 17 днів тому +2

      When eaten in moderation the fructose we eat is mostly converted to glucose in the small intestine and enters the blood stream as such. When we overwhelm our intestines ability to convert the fructose to glucose then fructose will be processed in the liver to either glucose or fat depending on what energy needs the body is currently facing. Fructose in excess is a problem but that is true for glucose, fat, salt and even water so sensible discussion are better than Lustigs attention grabbing fear mongering statement to draw attention to himself

      Well here is another but opposite extreme example: "vitamin D overdose" causes rapid weight loss despite of calories.
      According to my research we have two metabolic states I call them winter and summer mode. Unfortunatelly our average diet (including too much fructose) keep us in winter mode.
      If we followed how we ate during winter we would be more healtier and only gain fat under skin againts winter. Like Inuit do.
      But switching to summer mode is not an easy issue... It seems we have to manage copper status in fact.
      And it could explain why we lost ability to produce vitamin C...

    Fundamentally, if you consume less calories than your maintenance, you will lose weight. This of course goes in conjunction with eating healthier and more nutritious foods that are high volume, low calories and keep you satiated. Avoid calorie dense low volume foods that do not fill you up but significantly add to your caloric intake without realising. Track your food and macros, choose the healthier options and ease into a sustainable caloric defecit and you will lose weight. I started doing this in July weighing 104kg. Im now 76kg by doing all of the above. If you're consuming healthy but calorie dense foods i.e. potatos, rice, fruites and nuts and are going over your maintenance you will not lose weight... simple.

    I don't know. I use calorie restriction on my dogs, myself, and my horses when we need to lose weight. I will cut maybe 1/8th of a cup/scoop (which isn't much at all) of food out of their diet consistently each day, they lose weight. I will cut my food intake back each day, and I lose weight. It works every time regardless of what I eat. So I wouldn't demonize calorie restriction as a tool for weight loss. I do agree that sugar should be avoided as much as possible. Obviously, if you choose whole foods over sugary processed junk, you can eat more volume. Also, it is more satiating than garbage food.

      No! Calories by themselves have nothing to do with losing or gaining weight. They are the same only if you are going to literally burn them. People only lose weight restricting calories because they eat less carbohydrates in the process. That means they lower their insulin spikes, like it has been explained in this video. They are fattening calories like carbohydrates and non fattening like fat, beef, lettuce. I spent decades eating way more calories than I spent and never gained weight. I also have known many people like that.
