The ketogenic diet is so popular that it was searched over 25 million times in one year. Some experts support its effectiveness to help people lose weight, while others claim that it’s the worst diet to try. Research and data have advanced and proven that everyone has it wrong. Dr. Steven Gundry is with Tom explaining why he and the rest of the medical community got ketosis all wrong. He shares why mitochondrial uncoupling is really the star and this is what you need to know to make your dieting experience easier and more effortless. No need to live completely devoid of carbohydrates on a keto diet any longer.

QUOTES:
“50 percent of normal weight individuals have no metabolic flexibility.” [13:03]
“At full ketosis, human beings can only meet 30% of their calorie needs by burning ketones. The rest have to come from free fatty acids and glucose.” [19:09]
“Ketones are not a super fuel, they are actually a signaling molecule that tells mitochondria to protect themselves at all cost from damage” [20:15]
“In a ketogenic diet, if you do it right and uncouple your mitochondria, you waste fuel. You feed six dogs instead of one, and that's where the benefit of ketosis comes from.” [30:21]
“You want to cycle in and out of ketosis on a 24 hour basis.” [49:37]
“It's the cycling in and out of getting the benefits of ketosis. Without full ketosis, that makes all the difference.” [56:29]

What surprised you most about the Keto diet?
Hunger elimination .
Mood leveling.
Mental clarity.
Energy levels maintained throughout the day
Able to go through the day with one/two meals with ease.
That so many people make money off of lying about ketosis. This is why Dr. Ken Berry refers to it as the Proper Human Diet. Should humans eat the Proper Human Diet? See how dumb that sounds? Lol.
Most of the people's brain is dying, during the fastnig window (while we sleep mainly)
So is the mct oil good or bad I got lost?
Been a keto and no alcohol for 2023 , went from 320 to 240 , I was really strict in nothing with sugar nothing with flour. After 8 months I started eating flour and sugar again is been my second week eating sugar and flour and I can really tell my stress came back feeling tired and my sleep is pattern is bad I went from sleeping 6-7 hours a night to 3-5. Sugar and flour is poison. I'm going back to strict keto.
I think some carbs from beans, vegetables and meats is still pretty acceptable through.
Cheat day on carb is fine but make sure to also include fiber
Dr. Sten Ekberg goes into the science behind keto in depth on his channel. He's an excellent teacher and I'd recommend watching him no matter what sort of diet you're into. Bonus: he isn't selling anything and doesn't push any agenda.
He's my favourite content provider on this subject 😁
Respect to Ekberg!!👍🏼
Dr. Sten Ekberg explains dietary, and medical information in simple detailed language for plain people.
Hello health champion!
I am a fan of Dr. Ekberg too his videos are excellent if you are looking to learn!
Here are the key points from the conversation between Tom Bilyeu and Dr. Stephen Gundry:
1-Ketones were long thought to be a "superfuel" that makes mitochondria more efficient. But new research shows ketones are actually signaling molecules that tell mitochondria to protect themselves by "uncoupling" and wasting calories as heat.
Uncoupling means protons flow out of mitochondria without making ATP energy. This protects mitochondria from damage during starvation, but means we need more calories.
2-Many compounds like polyphenols and MCTs trigger uncoupling. Goat/sheep dairy and purple sweet potatoes provide this in blue zones.
Intermittent fasting and time-restricted eating generate mild uncoupling, which may extend lifespan like calorie restriction. Eating in a 6-7 hour window is ideal.
3-You don't have to be in full ketosis. Cycling ketosis by fasting 16 hrs and eating 6-8 hrs gives benefits without downsides like muscle loss.
4-Uncoupling theory explains why birds live so long despite high metabolism. Uncoupling is key to longevity.
In summary, ketones aren't a superfuel but a signaling molecule for uncoupling. Mild uncoupling from polyphenols, fasting, etc. can improve mitochondrial health and lifespan.
👏🏽 thank you!
Keto relieved me of gastrointestinal issues, increased my alertness and energy, toned my skin, removed cravings and helped me lose weight quickly.

Nah, it was the intermittent starving, or is it intermittent fasting. Shame shit.
Anyone who eats two times a day a normal amount of food will lose weight if they go 20hrs without eating a day. Lmfao!
I did that 15 yrs ago to get a six-pack when i was a teen. I call it, just starve!
What did you eat on Keto? Did you have berries or other fruit? Did you eat high fat or high protein? I ask because I have been doing Keto for over a year and have low energy and brain fog 🤦
@Emmanuel King are you eating pecans, sunflower seeds, and pumpkin seeds? Eggs? Lots of eggs? Avocados and salmon? Drink peppermint tea for alertness and ginseng tea for night time fun.
@@davidkattan1275
Thanks for your information...I eat/drink most of what you mentioned, except pecans and ginseng. But I don't consume enough healthy fats on a daily basis and perhaps that's the issue 🤔
Thanks again.
Crushing the goals this year! Intermittent fasting, KETO and Exercise! Down 35 lbs and up to 50 mile rides on the bike. Stopped taking all medications and the inflammation is non-existent.
Keto+ intermittent fasting is just amazing. Loving life right now I'm only on day ten, went through keto flu last Friday and ever since I've felt amazing
The keto flu is caused by a depletion of salt. Most carbs are full of salt and when you cut out the carbs, you inadvertently cut out the salt too. Your body needs salt and on the ketogenic diet, you should probably be getting close to a tablespoon a day but it needs to be pink salt or seasalt. Avoid the table salt that's processed and stripped of all its minerals.
Inspirational! Good to know! I'm down 20 lbs doing my own sloppy version of it. Gonna up my game... :).
Amazing. I found it the hardest diet to lose weight on, aren’t you hungry? I was constantly hungry on Keto.
@@TheRawfoodgardener Well.. We all have different situations with our individual biology (so they say). I have always gone long stretches of time between meals anyway. But, now I am aware of the "insulin thing" which keeps me from nibbling on carbs between meals.
Advice that I got that I found to be true for ME was making sure to get my ELECTROLYTES. Potassium, Sodium, and trace mins. That really helped me ease thru fasting stretches.
The other advantage to keto is that you can snack on FAT while you aren't able to burn your own. You can also scarf down some salad greens with olive oil and MCT and a little butter without spiking any insulin until your pre-decided time to "break fast" arrives.
It seems that this Keto diet continues to evolve as "we" learn more about biology.
But, I probably didn't say anything that you don't already know since you're no stranger to keto.
After I started keto diet my inflammation stopped. I haven’t felt this good in years.
What was inflammation like for you?
What was inflammation like for you?
Yeah me too. Just general knee, back and hip soreness went away in a month. Couldn't believe it.
Well said Amanda, even though I’m not much overweight added a few pounds after getting a bulging disc cleaning my kitchen and knocked a glass over, the sudden movement to stop the glass falling left me with one of the most painful injuries in my life..As an ex Rugby player I had enough injuries but the sciatic that followed my slipped disc was horrible and last a full 3 weeks before I got some relief..I then hoped to get back to my regular exercise and walking , but I found the exercise was increasing pain and had many failed attempts..However as I’ve been getting inflammation in my left thigh and knee I’ve looked at going on a keto diet, your post has now cleared any doubts I’ve had..Thank you for this simple but powerful post 👏👏👏, sorry for my long reply but at 70 I thought maybe it’s too late , you’ve given me the incentive 🙏✊
@@dermotmcglinchey282
It's never too late 👍
I’ve tried every diet out there. Always gained all the weight back. I tried Keto and lost 50 lbs. My blood work was excellent. I have never felt better in my life. I still eat Keto and have kept the weight of 4 years. Action speaks louder than words. I’m sticking to Keto!!
Well what's boggling to me about this Keto approach is the info from Dr. Gundry vs Dr. Cywes. Like from whT I gather Dr. Gundry does seem to include the consumption of fruits /vegetables & some forms of fiber (could be wrong) but seems to be adverse to Dr. Cywes' philosophy on this.
@@freindlyghost4829 Dr. Cywes allow leafy vegetable consumtion, he said vegetable is free
I had a lot of serious medical issues but since I started dr Berg's intermittent fasting keto diet I am much, much better
Both sites that recommend Dr Bergs Keto diet have nothing and nobody on them. I have contacted both to ask questions
Dr Berg is a chiropractor. Go to Dr Jason Fung he's a world's leading expert on intermittent fasting and fasting.
Keto/carnivore diet saved me from blood sugar spikes, brain fog, bone and joint pain, depression, several skin conditions, hair loss.. and I'm just 6 weeks in!
Never thought this could be possible
I am only 3 weeks in and my shorts literally fell off me yesterday. Luckily, I was still in the house. My sciatica is going away, my Hidradenitiis is now simmered down 75%, my insulin resistance is starting to ease back, my blood pressure went down because I get daily potassium a lot of days now, my brain fog is lifting. I am sure I forgot to mention a thing or 2. The only negative reactions thus far: my bp spiked at first until I added avocados and trout to diet and the next day it was solved. Also, I had bad bloating one day and discovered that too many cruciferous veggies will do that to me. I had to fast a little longer the next day until it went away. I haven't had any other issues.
🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
You can simply do all of those by not eating commercial sugar.
But a pure carnivore diet helping with joints and bones is just dumb as it makes no sense, it's most likely you stopped eating the junk that caused those problems.
@@4theFaith most products with gluten are the same ones that will take you out of Ketosis.
41 years old .2 weeks into 20/4 IF and Keto and I havent felt this good and less hungry in over 25 years. I thought I was dying 2 weeks ago. Its like a miracle.
I'm sticking with fasting to lose all this excess weight. Down 50lbs and have 95lbs to go! Feeling great 😃🙌🥳💜
Great and amazing for you!👍😎! Fasting is such a great way to lose weight, fight inflammation and so much more! What’s really great is when people have a lot of weight to loose, fasting actually helps prevent the excess loose skin, resulting from much weight loss! The body reduces the excess skin when fasting as well as the stored fat! Win win! Keep up the great progress! Then use intermittent fasting to manage your weight for life! 👍👏👏👏
How are your fasting intervals?
Do you stick with a certain schedule?
Thank you, I would greatly appreciate the feedback.
Yes!
@@ErickeverRB I STRONGLY RECOMMEND Dr Jason Fung’s books on fasting! He’s got ALL the answers and options in one place! Great doctor! I personally find the intermittent fasting works best for myself. I eat one meal a day, after 24 hours. I make sure I get really good meat,fish or seafood and lots of vegetables! It’s a pretty large meal! But for weight loss, nothing works better for me! I started fasting in the late 70’s. My first fast was water and juice for 28 days. Second was only water for 30! I don’t recommend these LONG fasts for beginners! Mine were supervised by my college MD who learned from ME! 😀
@@sheilasmith1109 yes! That is exactly my plan. I am definitely hoping that autophagy will help with the loose skin too, but regardless I will just be happy to lose the weight and be functioning efficiently metobolically again and reduce my risks for chronic disease. Feeling so much better already!
Ketogenic way of eating heals so many things. This is one doctor though I can't get behind when there are so many others who genuinely just want to help people and are not trying to sell things,
What really amazes me is just how exact the opposition in the Keto view is, to what we are told by mainstream medical. The mainstream medical position is incredibly destructive to health and longevity. Tom, you and Steven are brilliant. You do the best interviews I have ever seen.
The mainstream medical community wants (needs) to keep you just sick enough to keep them in business. They are supported and motivated by big pharma to do so.
Which actually makes sense. It hurts business if we're healthy
@@darlingdeb7010That's so true
Notice how he didn't tell you to eat bacon and steak. He still said to eat the rainbow on a plant based diet with the addition of sheep/goat milk/cheese. There is a lot of evidence against red meat, which is why he didn't recommend it. There are many variations of the keto diet, some better than others. He didn't tell you to eat no carbs either. It's funny how people hear what they want to hear.
@@limitisillusion7 You are so right !
I'm 61 years old. I've had acid reflux/gerd for over 20 years. If I happened to miss my daily dose of omeprazole, I experienced significant acid reflux the next day. I've been on the keto diet for 4 days and have discovered my acid reflux is gone. I don't need the medication any more. *Update: On keto for 42 days and have lost 24lbs. from 174lbs to 150lbs. I'm eating less than 20g of carbs per day. The transformation is amazing. Food cravings gone, ABS are back. Almost back to high school weight.
The only time I've had acid reflux was when I stupidly went high carb, low fat in the 90s. Worst fitness year of my life.
Mine went away the very first day. I'm on week 3 now and it's has not come back.
One of the great benefits for me as well by going Keto is not having heartburn anymore. Daily medication kept it in check but if I forgot and missed a dose.....agony.
i had it too 62 yrs so i stopped all flour all food made with flour, all canned food, cutting sugar cause it is a killer, only meat and dairy no more acid reflux, my liver feels great after 7 days of eating dairies and meat only HAHA i found out i'm on carnivore diet?!! well guess what I ve always ate more meat all my life my father was a hunter. It is just the pass 30 yrs i started eating more veggies and fruits and GAIN weight and fat.. with pastas, salads and all so I went back to single veggi if i want to but lot s of meat.
Gosh you took that long to realise ? Acid reflux is linked to poor diet. Your doctor won’t tell you what you need. Doctors promote proton pump inhibitors. Which remove acid that you need
Keto and intermittent fasting has been very positive for both my wife and I. In the first 2 weeks we lost a combined nearly 30lbs and have so much more energy now.
Im 2 weeks in and I feel better than I have for over 25 years ago. I literally felt like I was dying 2 weeks ago. Its a miracle.
most of that weight you lost with your wife is 95% water weight.
@@RandomHuTaoSimp yep. Thats what goes first. Im down 45 lbs more since month and half ago.
@@vict0ree Hell yeah. same been happening to me, been IF + keto + HIIT training 3 days out of the week. And the weight is melting off. Like half a pound a day lol
those benefits are not due to keto but just to losing weight. and that you could achieve by any diet approach
IF/Keto I've lost 100 lbs in 8 months. I finally feel like myself once again. I still miss french fries and cookies but it feels so much better not being over 300lbs.
Excellent job!! Very encouraging post. Keep at it!!
Well done for sticking to it, best wishes to you.
The good news is that carbs should not be demonized. It’s important to go through occasional carb loading. It’s necessary, do your research. So keto, IF and periodic carb loading is the way to go. But choose your carbs wisely. Not processed food. So from time to time, once or twice a month try a little carb load. Have your fries, or baked sweet potato. Have a pizza. Feel good about this treat. Also have your MCT oil, ACV and Polyphenols. Then go back to Keto. The real key is to avoid processed foods, processed oils and sugar.
@T R I have my electrolytes close by. Especially for fasts, or after a periodic carb load cycle. Also what has done me well is some natural salt rocks. An occasional lick during any hunger signaling or during a fast is awesome.
Well done you!.... But there are keto French fries recipes on UA-cam and they really are fantastic! 😊
Tom you are doing a great job. I don't have enough words to appreciate your efforts. You are the "Lighthouse" for health seekers. I wish you good health and wealth.
Stop letting all these voices confuse you about diet and what you should and shouldn't be eating. Its much simpler than that and you find the answer through experimentation. Do elimination diets and find the foods that give you energy and that you digest well. (I say this as someone with autoimmune disease) Ive done every diet you can think of for a minimum of a month up to years and personally find quality animal protein, fruit and certain vegetables works the best for me. Everyone will be different based on your body and health concerns. The only things everyone SHOULD remove are processed foods. Eat the most minimally processed food you can and eat enough to meet your macro/micro nutrient requirements. Don't feel the need to be downing supplements. Most people need as little as Vitamin D, K2 and magnesium and B12 if you're vegan. Simplify! :)
Yes yes yes.
All our time goes into finding on net nd listening to so called fitness influencers to decide what to eat how much etc etc.
Well said. So much contradictory information out there its overwhelming.
I am going to add a bit to what you said:
Cut out White sugar and white flour
Cut out all oils except olive, avacado, coconut and maybe flax
Cut out all processed foods
Aim to get 30 g to 40 g of fibre daily mostly from non-grain sources
Do those things and everything else is fine tuning. Experiment and find out what is best for you
Exactly the conclusion I came to after self experimentation for years now. There's a spectrum from vegetarian to keto that's just right for me. The common factor is minimal processed food. Basically a natural omnivore.
I RELY on Science by first running a lab panel or using one that pt already has and use my Optimal Blood Chemistry Analysis training. Next, I have clients answer a detailed questionnaire. I have clients submit a DETAILED Food Diary so I know what they are eating and also find out what foods they love, like, hate and avoid while also having them tell me how they react and FEEL after eating their food (and drinks) list. Habits and the way they eat. Everyone is an INDIVIDUAL! Interesting that What I’m seeing over the last 20+ years is a huge rise in Glyphosate toxicity! If they’re symptoms and food diary shows they consume many of the foods that are most contaminated with Glyphosate/Roundup use, I’ll suggest testing to see how toxic they are! I’ve learned to start North (with your mind) and work South (to anus). You cannot fix the end, with out starting at the beginning!
The BEGINNING starts with the BRAIN and your mind health! It’s different for everyone and WORTH investing in one’s SELF, not waiting and putting off symptoms until you can’t stand it! More testing if needed and if indicated! Dedication and determination is key, but when a person starts FEELING and seeing a difference from being helped, gets the motivation flowing!…… 🙏
@@sheilasmith1109 If only every doctor took this approach to health and healing. Glyphosate toxicity, insulin resistance, and thyroid and thus endocrine system imbalance are some of the silent epidemics among humans who for the most part are unaware. It's now finally starting to become evident to more and more people thankfully.
Started keto on feb 24 @ 170lbs and 30 days later Im 154 lbs . I wasnt fat except my gut which was attested to prednisone which I require because my adrenal glands dont work . My stomach is flat now after only 30 days . I feel great . Went in for my blood work last week , which I have every 3 mos since 2010 because of Polymyalgia Rheumatica, (now in remission) and Psoriatic Arthritis . My levels have always had flags and many aspects were outside normal ranges . Last week I went to my Rheumatologist to get my readings and she revealed her excitement in the fact my blood levels were normal for the first time since before 2010 ! She said "whatever you're doing , please keep it up . I also do intermittent fasting . This is so awesome . My inflammation is pretty much gone ! Between the prednisone and this diet my energy levels are through the roof . Im eating more than one meal now as I dont want to lose any more weight . THis is the real deal . 62 yo .
Congratulations, I want to ask you, do you still in Keto diet? Because it’s hard to eat 3 meals a day with less than 50 carb! So how you doing it?
@@alialsarray7231 I fast 20 hours a day . I only eat one meal . My weight has stabilized at about 152-155 lbs . I have drank alcohol a few times and likely broke from keto but maintain the diet and maintain the weight . I went down to 142.6 but it was just to much of a weight loss so I brought it back up into the middle 150's . I feel great .
@@alialsarray7231 I can only have 30-35 grams of carbs a day to stay in Ketosis . . . Most of my carbs come from veggies, like kale, cabbage, and cauliflower. I do Vegetarian keto. I end up having to cook a little more. But my staples are eggs, Smart Dogs, heavy cream, MCT oil, low-carb protein shakes, rye crackers (1x day), and lots of veggies!
Thanks for sharing! This is really interesting for an odd reason. I foster old ferrets, and due to Marshall's bad breeding practices, most of them get insulinoma, which requires Prednisone. Then they get the dreaded "pred belly." Usually within a 6 months of that symptom, they die. I've been struggling to find any kind of solution to this. Now I'm going to talk to my vet about Ferret Keto. They have to have high protein, so I'm not sure this is an option. But something to explore at least!
@@cliffschannel2521 good work, I’ve also lost a bit too much weight and was wondering how you got your weight back up so fast? I have a hard time keeping weight on.
I love how Tom doesn't need to get a lot of clarification from Dr Gundry because Dr. Gundry's conversation is already so simplified and detailed in a story book sort of way. He's naturally such a good teacher. Extremely interesting. I will be listening to this again and taking notes this time. I was driving first time round. Thanks Tom & Dr. Gundry!
Dr. Gundry is such a great thinker and effective communicator, I love his presentation of the subject.
Fascinating interview. Really confirmed a few things I knew should be true, but went WAY beyond that. Well done.
I’ve lived most of my life on a carnivorous diet. As a kid my parents were very busy and were building the future at the expense of having me grow up with my grandparents who lived in a village by the mountain. Grandad was a hunter and he mainly consumed animal foods such as milk, yogurt, cheese, butter, and meats that’s what we had on a daily basis with very little veg. Eventually I moved to the big city with mom and dad and we started having loads of takeaways such as Chinese, McDonald’s, Pizza and what not and I went fat and felt horrible for a few years until we were in a position that they were super busy again and ended up bringing grandparents to the city to help them with me. My grandmom realized what happened and she put me on a low carb diet and within a year I got slim and healthy again. Eventually I grew up and was reading a lot about nutrition cause I was interested in boxing and lifting so I researched a lot and did quite a few mistakes along the way but now at the age of 28 I’ve learned what my body feels best on. This happens to be sort of a keto diet but I also have stuff like apples, and berries and some honey every now and again.
Thank you for your info. I would have liked your Grandmother. Hugs from SW Mi
Continue with animal based carnivore for optimal health both physical and mental. Im glad you found your way back to that way of eating.
Same here a tweaked keto some what
Life is itself an experiment and you can't always undo your mistakes. Sometimes the mistake is believing someone without checking the data. But above all you should always be prepared to eat your words and say I was wrong.
I don't know the truth I just look for it, always.
So you went from being a carnivore to eating McDonald's? Everyone would gain from that. But sorry any diet is better then burgers.
One of the most consequential videos that I have seen about diet. I listen to Dr Gundry’s podcast and have already read couple of his books (rest are on the queue). This interview certainly completes the puzzle for me by answering multiple questions that I had
I am an Emergency Medicine physician. I like your posts very much. Keto and increasing my own awareness has been transformative for my health and, in turn, helps me help and educate my patients. . This post disturbs me. You worked hard here to de-code the information being somewhat shared. Education and gracious sharing of understanding are key processes in healthcare many physicians don’t practice. If we do not empower our patients, we fail them. The way we share what we know is both a tool for others, when it is good, and evidence of our weakness, when it is not.
I could happily listen to this guy talk all day. Interviewer excellent, with minimal but very relevant interjections. It just flowed. Great work.
Hands down the best keto interview on the internet!!! Must watch! I have been following keto diets on and off for the last few years but this interview blew my mind!
One of the clearest and best technical interview I've ever seen.
Thank you, Dr Gundry, for year's I was confused with these ketons and have done so much work checking and testing in the labs. I accidentally bought your book, it came up as sales on Amazon and I thought, ok, let's see what he says: Thank you Dr. Gundry for your books, I bought them all after the end you made so much sense about mitochondria uncoupling, and lectin, that was confusing for me for year's. In your books you go into so much detail and so much technical. I love that you use so much medical terminology and proper explanation
Kick sugar and you're halfway there, then add fasting and that's the other 50%. Humans can eat anything when fasting often. Add in meat, healthy fats and thrive.
This was amazing to listen to. Dr Gundry is so interesting and explains complex things so well. Thank you for an amazing video.
Our predecessors didn’t spend so much time micro-analysing their food, they also weren’t surrounded by highly processed foods. Life was simple, you were hungry, you ate whatever was ‘naturally’ grown. Obesity was not a fact of life. Moral? Eat natural and just as much as to satisfy your hunger.
After 2 .5 months and 30lb.drop from 280 to 250 I can’t believe I don’t miss or crave the junk I was eating .I can’t believe I’m not starving . I have a 10hr eating window so far this is perfect for me!
The DR. tells you clearly that the 5 extra hours is what makes all the difference.... You need to only have a 7 hour eating window to eat.. not 10.
@@CARNIVOREat60 It's ok to start off with a bigger window and narrow it as you go, especially if you have health complications. You don't want to shock your body too much.
I've never been so glued to the screen as with this conversation! (I usually listen to these when I make food, but had to sit down with this one.) Imagine having a teacher in school like Dr. Gundry.
Same here! Dr. Gundry is the G.O.A.T. I wish he was my teacher! I have learned so much from just listening to his podcasts and watching his UA-cam videos. Thanks Tom for having him as a guest :)
Good stuff Tommy! Keep finding and sharing incredible people like Dr.Steven with the world. You're doing so much good!
Great interview! Interesting thematic and a guy that has a great amount of knowledge and another one that knows how to ask good questions.
This doctor speaks so well. It’s a flex to be able to explain something quite complicated so easily
You are your own best doctor. Do the research, experiment and record.
What a great video, I really love Steven Gundry and how he explains things in a easy to understand manner. I regularly follow his food pyramid he made and also adopted a keto lifestyle. I lost 100 pounds the first year I was on it and it reversed my hypoglycemia entirely, no more having to carry around glucose tablets. I'm not even close to being a diabetic anymore. I have lots more energy and I feel more alive than I ever have before.
Yes, a good video and lots of positive things . Eat clean, exercise daily. And #follow the #Chefs !
I'm 38, I have IBS, insulin resistance, slightly higher than average blood pressure and severe insomnia (by the way, i have ideal weight for my size and age, which basically doesn't mean anything). I started Keto, made a transition of 2 days by lowering carbs gradually on my meals until there was no more than 20g a day. Then i spent 4 days eating 3 meals a day, breakfast, lunch and dinner, with some snacks in the middle once in a while. At this point, my IBS was already much better, but i needed to eliminate some vegetables that i suspected were still keeping me bloated, so i went carnivore (cow meat, poultry, eggs and fish) for a week and all my IBS symptoms were gone, i felt more energized, more alive and the keto metal clarity kicked in. Also my hunger was less day by day and this prompted me to start intermittent fasting and eating 2 meals a day. So i did and reintroduced back some vegetables, dairy and some other things, every-time i had a slight hint on what was causing IBS i cut that food and introduced another. It's been 30 days since i started this, and now I'm doing 16 hours fasts with 2 meals a day within a 6-8 hour window (depending on my job and schedule). The results are that i lost 5kg, my IBS is totally gone, my blood pressure is normal, i sleep 7-8 hours a day and fall asleep easily and fast. I also do, occasionally, some light exercise at night, 15min 3 days a week. I can say this is the best I've felt in the last decade.
Isn't it GREAT to escape suffering with IBS and other GI disorders? Food is our medicine! For over 10 years I was in bad shape with IBS-D and 5 different doctors couldn't figure it out. I had GERD for over 20 years to the point it had scarred my esophagus. Keeping a food/health log ( as the book _Help for IBS_ by Heather VanVorus suggested), plus going on an elimination diet taught me what my trigger foods and drinks (and eating habits) were. Eric Berg DC got me started on healthy keto and IF 5 1/2 years ago. Dr.Ken Berry got me into carnivore and 'ketovore'. Dr.Jason Fung taught me benefits of extended fasting. Traditional doctors often say a person just has to live with IBS and it's symptoms. NO, you don't. Good luck on your good health journey
@@Robnord1 Thank you for your words. It has now been more than 5 months since i started this, I've kept going carnivore/keto, alternating between the 2. Using carnivore as medicine when symptoms of IBS arise. I lost 12kg since then, still haven't done blood work so i can't report on that. I can say that i feel great, and better than i was when i started this diet. I had some muscle loss due to intermittent fasting and not doing exercise. This is my goal right now, to gain weight in muscle mass, focusing on eating more protein (beef and eggs mainly). Good luck to you to!
Dr. Steven Gundry is a genious at taking complex ideas and presenting to a lay audience. I really enjoyed this Tom!
I love how all of this was explained to us so we get a clear understanding of it all. Love you guys
For how many years were we all told to restrict calories and eat low fat diets?
When you cut out processed foods and sugar (both are not natural) your body goes back to its normal metabolism, weight and good health. Food industry wants to keep this a secret.
Wow thank you to whoever puts the time stamps and quotes in the show notes! Super, super helpful.
My undergrad degree is in food science & human nutrition and I learned none of this. Thanks for your’s and the Doctors good work.
Absolutely loved this one, Tom. Thanks much
Thanks to both of you. This discussion cleared my doubts on time restricted eating.
I’ll have to watch this more than once and take notes the second time around before I read Dr. Gundry’s book on energy
The educational value of this conversation for the fundamentals of human health is just astronomical and off the charts. Thank you so much for doing what you do. This gives me hope for maximising my results in my keto journey.
Seriously, my mind was blown multiple times during this.
I couldn't agree more.
Totally agree - unlocked an understanding previously not experienced concerning this topic.
As a side note, yes, we all descended from one woman. Eve.
This is bullshit...why . The body runs on glucose sugar , no way around it !
Dosent matter what diet your on the body covers that energy to glucose..
There is a new long term studies recently out that shares the new facts found about keto long term.
Another example , keto is dangerous...you must come off keto often...if the body get permanent adjusted to keto and you have carbs , it will be catastrophic!!. And continuing keto is harmful because this diet is extremely inflammatory...which leads to cancer
Fuck keto...it's a temporary fix
Nice to see guests back in the studio!!!!
I couldn't do the online interviews.
Fab interview, with so much mind blowing information. Love it. Thank you.
Thank you Dr. Gundry! Thank you Tom as well for this interview! I just bought one the books Unlocking the Keto Code. The information you both shared in this episode was amazing. I am a health conscience person very much so, and hope to become a certified health coach soon. What an amazing way to learn about how to help others to regain their health and full potential by knowledge provided by those like Dr. Gundry. Also to find the motivation to actually want to change our bad habits and appreciate the sanctity of life. Many thanks again! Sonja, SoCal
Love that he says you can't not give kids carbs.
this episode is so good Im gonna watch it twice! thank you for having such good guests !!
this is a great interview, from both sides..excellent
I love hearing Dr. Gundry in this pedagogical conversation. I'm tired of his ads, but now that I've listened to the truth here that Dr. Gundry truly knows his biochem - I'm impressed
Best video I watched in a week, and I watched lots. Thanks a lot! Gonna watch it 3 times more at least!
Truly legendary, thank you Tom and Dr. Gundry!
Thank you, I've learned a lot, very well presented.
This was very nice to watch; thank you both 🖤
This is the first year that I have kept a food related New Year resolution. I am reducing added sugars and doing intermittent fasting.
What are your intervals for the fasting?
This is all so fascinating. I was also struck with interest that one moment they’re talking about how we “evolved” and a few seconds later talked of the amazing “design“ of everything within the subject matter. I’m going to spend the rest of the day thinking of how amazing the architect of this design is.
Beautifully said
@@Olivia-W This is a statement when someone does not know what The Bible actually says. After the flood The Lord told Noah specifically he could eat meat and this was the first thing mentioned not “ You should eat a high carb diet”
In addition later when Levitical Kosher laws were established the emphasis is on clean or unclean animals the Jewish people could eat, what is known today that the abstinence of eating certain types of fish(With scales and fins) as opposed to shell fish , catfish, crabs etc... which have KNOWN issues for allergies and toxic reactions in people. Also abstaining from Pork which was beneficial to avoid the known issues (Tapeworm) as there was no refrigeration capability then. So a so called “ KETO” or carnivore diet was encouraged by THE ONE who created us The Lord Jesus Christ.
Btw there is a “Manual” for us to live by and it’s God’s word The Bible, consider what you are facing IF you do not give your life to Jesus and it is your free will choice and I hope you consider this as your eternal existence separated from God is in play.
Lastly in the Millenial Kingdom everyone will be herbivores once again and animals will not kill each other. God Bless you and your family.
@@Olivia-W Do you ever question why you hate Christianity so much? You use the word “religion” but it’s very obvious which particular religion attracts your wrath. Does it ever cross your mind that YOU have been indoctrinated? As R W stated, you don’t even know what the Bible actually says. Oh, I’m sure you THINK you do. I’m going to put it to you that the Bible prophesied everything that is happening in the world today, that there IS a spiritual realm and that a spiritual being called Satan, who is the enemy of Christ, is actually influencing the minds of human beings.
@@Olivia-W so you’re really taking issue with the good doctor. HE is the one that said “design” - so HE needs to make up his mind - did this evolve or is there a design? And if there’s a design, there’s a creator, whether we like it or not or understand it or not.
@@TheMaggiemay77 I honestly don't even understand what you're writing here. It is clear to me you may need help and appear to be having some kind of delusions.
And no, patterns can emerge completely spontaneously. Please read more. And possibly get help.
What a fascinating-educating interview this is. Thx for sharing it!
I recently started Keto diet. Very very interesting video. Thank you so much ❤️
so fascinating...was a little surprised Dr. Grundy keeps referring to the chloroplasts as the "plant mitochondria" as this is not true. Plant cells have both chloroplasts and mitochondria and they both do opposite processes. Chloroplasts do photosynthesis, a process which involves using the suns energy, along with carbon dioxide and water, to make glucose (food) and oxygen. Mitochondria do cellular respiration, a process which involves using oxygen and glucose to produce ATP (energy), carbon dioxide and water.
Lotsa sales with a sprinkle of science.
Some people say don’t eat potatoes… wheat I eat them immediately I digest and feel great . With beef etc the same. When I eat lentils I get bloated…so I eat what I digest quickly and feel good no matter what everyone says. Do the same
did you pressure cook the lentils?
This!
This is without a doubt in the top 3-5 the most interesting nutritional conversation I've heard. Def ordering the book!
Ditto - ordered the book. I was glued to this video and then watched another one here. Fascinating and helpful to listen to Dr Gundry explain some of the newest research. I want to find out his tweak's for the Keto diet. It reduces my inflammation and takes away my asthma and who knows what else. I also started taking the MTC oil in my cupboard.
My take away is : you don't have to go carb free to get your ketosis metabolism working .
JUST limit the window of eating to 6-7 hrs. and the 17-18 hour fast will do that for you.
This is what I do but I only eat carbs at one meal in that window . (and grains only one week per month)
(it's important to have BOTH ketones AND glycogen in the liver as energy backup and the dual metabolism to use either))
@Tony Bebich Pretty much the way I eat. Homemade (salt , sugar free)peanut butter my favorite low carb veggie. (saying no and ignoring hunger eventually turns off that mechanism)
What do eat as carbs and when do you take the grains?
@@sazan108 There are carbs in all vegetables, my preference is home made PB. (Prefer grains at dinner but only half the time . )
Love keto .. will always love keto.. that combined with fasting has taken me from an a1c over 14 at diagnosis .. to an a1c of 5.1 without diabetes meds .. also lost tons of weight…
What you know about the KETO DIET is WRONG! And what Gundry knows about Mitochondrial Eve is RIGHT... even though so-called geneticists estimate Eve at between 150,000 and 200,000 years old, not "60,000", as he puts it!! (Which recently discovered artifact evidence suggests is after mankind had dispersed all the way to Australia, oddly enough... but, like, WHATEVS.)
Type 2?
@@bobh1208 you’re 5 and somehow got lost on UA-cam… Right???
@@ThunderstyleYTB yep
@@catholiccat8489 Look up Mitochondrial Eve's age, before you leap to conclusions about whose "claims" should be taken SERIOUSLY!
Finally someone who recognizes we shouldn't stay in ketosis 24x7. So thanks for that. Also, no link here to the book referenced in this video countless times.
Makes sense. How can't people realize? It is something that is for helping you through starvation!!
I don't understand, if it takes a few days to get in ketosis
@@pauljuraszek9878 it takes 12 hours to start ketosis.
Thank you so much. I've learned a lot❤
I don't know if anyone has even any answer about diet. The best thing to do is to experiment with different diets and see what your body thrives on best.
I’ve been doing keto for about a month. So far I’ve lost 8lbs which has been wonderful, but I didn’t have a huge amount of weight to loose, I was mainly in it for the anti inflammatory effects. Funnily enough i have been gravitating to high quality sheep and goat milk cheeses and eating them as a large part of my diet with lots nuts and tahini and some veg and a little bit of meat. This past week I have been feeling the amazing high energy benefits of this diet, but hearing Dr. Gundry speak so highly about sheep and goats milk has really reaffirmed my choices! I shall continue with what I’m doing. Thanks for sharing this.
Me too and lost nothing.
Are you doing any intermittent fasting?
The key is to avoid processed food, processed oil and sugar. Periodic carb loading is necessary for long term. But IF and Keto are powerful to normalize your blood sugar levels and improve the immune system.
@@donnas5209 I don’t know if you were asking me, but I inadvertently intermittent fast most days as I never really have an appetite in the mornings. I usually eat for the first time around midday, but i listen to my body, if I’m ravenous before then I will eat earlier. I find too much restriction negatively affects my relationship with food. For example since writing my first comment I have introduced more carbs into my life in the form of humous and potatoes. They both are my favourite foods and it was hard going not eating them for those first couple of months. I agree that avoiding processed food is best wherever possible.
@@RogueCylon carb loading - Uh NO!
@Tom Bilyeu, your channel constantly offers up superb breakthrough information and education. the format you have with the "chapters" listed along the bottom so that you can then click onto each area to revisit, is superb. thanks.
In many areas of science, but particularly human physiology, progress is always steps forward and backwards as we manage the confluence between observations in the lab and and in human life or in on micro or macro levels. The person applying the micro knowledge of cell function in the lab under an electron microscope is usually not the same person looking at the macro implication that the cell compound or process they researched has on the overall function of the body or in the outcomes for longevity, disease prevention or physical performance. A baton has to be passed back and forth between these different disciplines within science. Being willing to look fresh at new data and information and to challenge and adjust our understanding and application of that data is critical to making real progress on our understanding of what makes humans tick. Literally speaking in this case. Fascinating content as usual Tom and thank you Dr. Gundry.
Also some mini-bombs Dr. Gundry dropped in here that got passed over like when he says 'You can't keep carbs away from kids' or "All of us came from one woman about 6000 years ago" Wow, big statements that probably would draw away from this conversation, but certainly worthy of conversations on their own.
New Years Resolutions?
Today is day 40 without a cigarette. I'm DONE with them. I Won. It is also day 20 of my I.F. / OMAD journey. 6 pounds down, my energy is up, I'm actually Losing Fat and Gaining Muscle and my body feels AMAZING!

I'm Glad You're Here to Help make us a Smarter population. Keep Up the GREAT Work! 😎👍
what an amazingly informative interview thank you
This guest is hard work to listen to, his books get straight to the point thankfully
MIND BLOWN 🤯 thank you, such an interesting talk....I'm a vegetarian, for over 20yrs, but so little I know!
If they new about this about high fat diet - why the heck and and how the heck did fat become so demonized?
Grain industry paying for the food pyramid to look the way it did in the 80's?
Look up Ansel Keyes to learn the history behind how and why... he was a bully and cherry picked data to prove his personal beliefs in a study that has probably been referenced by the whole world by now. You have to take control of your own diet to be healthy.
On regular keto with high nutrition from cruciferous vegetables and supplements I loose weigh but unless I am fully in ketosis which is hard to maintain for long periods or I taking some moderation of carbs I suffer from Brain fog. This video has got me thinking again
Most interesting Keto video of all time!!! This is a year old. Has anyone adopted this to make changes to the keto approach? I'm sacred to cycle off Keto because it's so damn good. What your current protocol Tom? Thanks for all the amazing video. I am so grateful for all your hard work!
Well, here I am. A guy who really didn’t believe he could go without breakfast let alone lunch and dinner. Fasting SMOKES keto diet for this diabetic. I have faced the music…started fasting a while back. I eat higher fat and higher protein but not like the ratios on Keto (as I did for a year at one point and never lost weight and had great blood work though). Now I do OMAD 6 days a week and keep to around 1300 cals without feeling hungry. I rotate in 48hr and 72hr fasts and frankly they have become easier and easier. Fasting puts me in ketosis within 18hrs and I mean HARD ketosis (5!).
My energy is 3x what it was, my digestive system is beyond great. My blood sugar doesn’t spike when I eat carbs. This is the cure for t2 diabetes and is the easiest method to maintain in my opinion. I am so glad I trusted Dr Sten Eckberg and tried fasting.
It seems to me that Dr. Gundry has a penchant for taking established ideas, calling them something else, "repackaging" them as a "new thing", and then selling them to you with the belief that you're doing something profoundly different. It's an amazing technique in "restatement" logic.
It also makes him money..new book is coming for sure..on the NEW Keto diet!!
Lol! Marketing...
It also makes him lots of money.
@@SueWoledge Yep. He's skilled at that too. Take the best and leave the rest.
Gundry is a scam artist. His game is mix truths (fast more often eat more leafy greens, cruciferous veggies and olive oil) with a bunch of BS (lectins), impress you with big scientific words and then sell you crap you don't need.
Good interviewer, asking the right questions.
Appreciate. It was very interesting interview. I got a new knowledge.
Great talk, thanks for the video. Interrupting the interviewee a bit much in the beginning but it got better later on. Very insightful!
Nice to revisit that pyruvate oxidation cycle, and be reminded of the marvelously inefficient but fat-losing and life-prolonging process ketosis triggers. It inspired my journey through orchem, biochem, and physiology. But the contemporary literature on nutrition was abysmal.
Good video. Explanations were clear where I feel I understand better. Will need to watch again. I'm doing great since January 1. Down 10 pounds. Swelling down, blood sugar lower and I have been off diabetic medication since April 2021. KETO/Cornivore is the way to go. I'm 73.
I've learned so much, thanks so much
Love you Dr. Gundry. You save my life!
I have been working out very hard for over 2 years. I am 42 yrs old, 5’ 4”. I lift pretty heavy 4-5 days per week, I do no gi Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu 4 times per week for the last 2 years. I could not get under 220 lbs for the last year. I would not say my diet was bad, just the classic low cal, low fat diet. I would do 300 sets of abs 3-4 days per week and I still had this protruding belly. So I have this descended belly. I also had this persisting shoulder pain that felt like an ice pick jabbed in my shoulder, my hands always hurt. Anyways I got the big virus on Christmas Day of 2021. I could not eat my typical diet, and literally only at protein. Well I recovered from the virus after 4 days. After the 4th day my shoulder pain was gone, my hands were not swollen or in pain, and my belly was almost 3-4 inch flatter. It dawned on me that all these issues were diet. Over the last 4-5 months I eat this high protein, high natural fat, low carb diet. I do not eat a carb with a high fat, food. I do not eat fatty foods with a carb. I eat keto like, I do eat a lot of vegetables with now sugar, high fiber. Every 4th day I carb load 1 meal with a non processed carb. Rice, oatmeal with honey or another natural sweet substance. As of today, I have not lost mussels mass, or strength. I am down to 184 lbs. my body fat % went from 32.5% to 24.9%. I feel awesome, I never am in a caloric deficit, I eat as much fried eggs, bacon, flat breakfast sausage. I eat a boat load of burgers with no bun. I will eat pickles or lettuce and onions with it. I am alway full and barrel ever get hungry.
Good job. Gym without good diet and sleep is nothing.
You'd likely see even more improvement with intermittent fasting and high fat diet. Protein also spikes insulin, which prevents fat burning. Drop the sugars and the rice and watch the kilos shed.
@@metallisika2745 That’s exactly what I did. I unfortunately felt I was cutting body fat too fast, finally started upping my complex carbs to about 60g. Unfortunately 70% of protein converts to sugar. It’s still better than plant based protein almost converting 85% into glucose. I should have paid better attention in chemistry. Another huge benefit to 16-20 hour fasting is that it causes stress on the body and it can activate genes to help correct errors in the DNA/RNA structures. Literally reducing the effects of aging over time. I wish I knew this stuff or had better access to this kind of data 20 yrs ago.
Interesting. I just wonder people who eat this way, do they check their cholesterol level? No one talks this side of this type of diet.
@@daliar6743 I do pretty regularly. I have an endocrinologist that does blood every few months. Nothing out of the norm. My T levels increased and I got off my blood pressure meds.
Autophagy is the greatest healer of all.
I totally agree with. Take care. Greetings from Munich.
Thank you for the video... .so informative! And kudos to Dr. Gundry for admitting he was incorrect in his thinking but this is why no one should claim they're an expert... they're only an expert in what they know :)
A crushing amount of knowledge inside this one man.
Watching this on my third day of fasting :) feeling great
Very interesting. Love it when "keto people" actually know what they are talking about (sadly most have no idea...).
Thank you Tom for your inteligence and awesome guests.
Thank you very much for sharing your valuable thoughts.
