  • This video was taken from the Joe Rogan Experience podcast # 1037, featuring Chris Kresser. The clip is about resistant starch. Some food naturally contain resistant starch, and some starch is converted into resistant starch by cooking, then cooling. I have tried the cooked and cooked potato diet myself, and did not get the normal insulin spike typically associated with potatoes. This video is the long version of my previous potato diet video.

    I found out about this diet when reading "Presto" by Penn Jillette. I lost 18.4 lbs in two weeks. Besides the dramatic weight loss, there are a couple of side effects, the first and most pronounced is that you learn that you really don't like potatoes that much. Potatoes are a delivery mechanism for fat, sugar, and salt. Take that stuff away, and potatoes turn into prison food.
    The second side effect is a result of the first -- you reset your palette and come to learn just how much flavor can be found in food without loading it up with fat, sugar and salt. The first bite of plain celery you take after two weeks of potatoes will be a flavor explosion in your mouth.
    Lastly, you learn the difference between hunger and appetite, which Chris Kresser talks about in his boiled potato vs potato chips example in this video. You have to be hungry to eat a plain potato, and when you're done being hungry, you will stop eating. It's a great habit to learn for when you go back to your regular diet.

    Best way to test this is with a glucometer. Once you heat the potato to cooking temperature you can't change it back... chemical structure will remain as when cooked. Gut bacteria, on the other hand, will work with it either way.

    When I went vegan back in ‘98 in college, they didn’t have much in the cafeteria. I ended up eating whole steamed potatoes (which they didn’t throw away daily when no one ate them. so they we heated and cooled many times) and a lot of bananas. I lost 30lbs in two weeks.

      I was on a potato diet before the fad, I was out of having extra money,
      I found a potato filled me up at little expense, but, I only had enough money for three potatoes a day. I did lose weight to the point my classmates were jealous. I never told them what I had to do to survive and to be filled enough that I could study and keep on going.
      I made it, and still am eating potatoes, with other vegetables, the most satisfying food, for me.

      Lol I'm doing this cause I ran away from home and had to make sure I was as miserly as possible with my spending cause I don't have much for now. I picked potatoes cause theyre well rounded nutrition-wise so I dont have to spend money on hospital bills down the line for deficiencies. Also boiled/mashed potatoes fill me up like crazy and are cheap so I could book a hostel instead of being homeless. Can confirm that if you don't have much excess weight you may want to eat fat and stuff along with it cause if you just eat whole boiled potatoes like I do, you'll likely lose *at least* 10 lbs withing the 1st week.

    From what I have read- I just read Penn Jillettes book- You will loose some muscle overall- but tons of fat mostly. He said it was easier for him to loose the weight super fast and then build up lost muscle from a thin standpoint. He lost 100 lbs in under 5 months doing this. Whereas he has previously had been trying to slowly loose weight exercising and protein packing- which was such slow weight-loss he couldn't stay on track. 1 bad weekend and he would be right at the beginning again.

      I get what you're saying, but his claim that the guy is healthier than 99% of society is a strange statistic to claim. he really doesn't know if the guy is necessarily that healthy, it's not that well defined. The guy may have lost weight and had blood test results improve, but nobody knows how healthy he is.
      Here's an example of what I mean. There was a local chiropractor here who claimed to have gotten much healthier over the last several decades (three?) by cutting out meat, coffee, tee, and soda. I'm sure his blood test numbers were better than they had been, but he made outlandish claims of repairing his blood vessels, etc, and doing other things that there's no proof of. The boasts were constant (he was selling supplements, so who knows if he believed what he said or if he was just selling).
      He died late last year of a heart attack - IIRC, he was about 70.
      I'm sure he would've said he was healthier than 99% of society. Hopefully he didn't die from taking too many snake oil supplements.

    ok so it doesnt digest and it doesnt turn the potatoe into glucose.. but surely we need glucose for energy for the brain for well absolutely everything. Or perhaps thats why its a limit of a 3 days diet for optimal health? I would think that the resistance doesnt matter so much for the weightloss, but in general a potatoe diet works because in the end - its a natural food, in its natural form, its designed by nature to be consumed that way and your body knows exactly how to use the potatoe and allocate the glucose and nutrients accordingly..

      Sometimes experiments like the potato diet can help a person gain a different perspective on food and change their relationship with it. For example, maybe a person is overweight but they are eating healthy food. They may wonder why they aren't making progress. Then they try eating plain baked potatoes for a week and realize that their problem was overeating or emotional eating. Changing their perspective to see food as fuel and not as a reward or an escape can help them be much more mindful of their portion sizes and where their cravings come from. This way, they can make better decisions going forward, such as focusing on eating only when they are hungry. Before, they may have been eating too much because they were also eating when they were sad, excited, and bored.
      That was a good point you brought up!

      am diabetic of some 15 years ..got sick and tired of doctors prognosis of progressive disease with no chance of a turnaround.. developed problems with nerve damage, lack of energy and all the health issues that you get with diabetes. Then by accident, while researching ideas on how to fix diabetes I stumbled across the keto diet and my life changed almost immediately cut out all carbs and bingo sugar readings fell thru the floor almost as fast as I changed my diet. But I missed my salmon rissoles (made from sweet potato, salmon, onion, small amt curry powder) if i had reintroduced to my diet my blood sugar would have gone thru the roof that was until i heard of this process of cooking and cooling potato before eating ..and it works (for me at least) very little increase in blood sugar and i now enjoy my fish cakes again..Hope this helps best John

    Lmao I mean it’s probably not the starch that causes weight loss but rather because potatoes score over 320 on the satiety index-3.2x more than filling that white bread. It’s not hard to go into a calorie deficit when you’re full as fuck always.

There was no dif in my blood sugar. The resistant starch potatoe raised my blood sugar exactly the same. From 5.4 to 7.6 Should I have eaten the potatoes cold? I ate them right after reheating them.

      It sounds like poo to me. The whole trick is just that you're eating waterborne food that doesn't taste that great. You won't eat much of it (fewer calories). I wouldn't be surprised if you remeasured after leaving the potatoes in the refrigerator overnight and didn't see any difference in your blood sugar.
      But if you eat only potatoes, I'll bet you'll lose weight at the same weight (perhaps even faster if you eat them only cold because they'll be disgusting).
      This guy reminds me of just about everyone else selling snake oil. The diet works because you don't feel like eating that much in terms of potatoes and you go into calorie deficit. You could literally do it on cane sugar if you could get sick of eating cane sugar. You'd still lose weight. Or fat (keto) if you limit what you'll eat.
      (not knocking the diet as useless - currently on my fourth day of eating potatoes and have dropped a couple of pounds because I don't feel like eating potatoes late at night when I'm hungry. It's not complicated enough for someone to write a book and blog about unless they're selling snake oil...at least that's my opinion).

    • @michaeltrumper

      David W it is mostly poo, the way he explains it sounds like a lot of the potato will be converted to resistant starch, while in studies it was shown that cooking and cooling converts 2% more of resistant starch, and it's not like you can cook and cool the same potato until it becomes 100% resistant starch.... just eat root vegetables, potatoes are nightshades and one of the worst options, while onion or sweet potatoes are on a whole other league

    resistant starch doesn't work if you heat it up. You gotta take it in cold.
    Theres a guy that did a blood glucose test with resistant potato starch.
    Mixed it with cold water, BG went down so it definitely wasn't digested and thus was fermented in the colon.
    second test he mixed it with water and cooked it then ate it and his BG spiked as high as if he were to eat 3 slices of cake so it was definitely digested and absorbed so no fermenting going on here.

    The difference between a cooked potato and a cooled one is minor. You get SOME resistant starch but it's not all converted and you still get the starch you don't want. They are still bad for keto because they have a HIGH Glycemic Index but they are good for the colon because of the resistant starch.

      I did it for a week and lost 10 lbs. My boyfriend lost 4. Our body types are complete opposites. Did you let the potatoes cool? Did you add anything to the potatoes? Our of curiosity how many potatoes a day were you eating?
      I find the longer I'm on the diet, the less I'll eat in a day, the more energy I grow mid week, and find myself in a calorie deficient without feeling hungry. I do the diet a couple of times a year, and it always has worked for both of us. I use it as a way to get back on track eating healthy, because after the potato diet even salad sounds amazing! haha. I usually crave a salmon and a side salad as my first meal off the diet, and try to keep my plates "lighter". But sometimes down the line we fail and bring on the soda and junk. :( So the potato diet helps in getting back on track. If anything, it can help your taste buds appreciate foods when you've taken it for granted. The most I lost was 18 lbs on the diet, doing it for 3 weeks. But normally I only do it for 1 week, like a year (usually before the holidays, after the holidays, or before a trip to buffet city, aka Vegas, ha!)
