I'm a little confused. Are you saying with my homocysteine of 13.5, I should simply supplement, or could benefit from altering my diet, or both? I have degenerative disc disease, and going magnesium supplementation and keto have changed my life (seemingly, so has benfotiamine.) The higher my ketones, the generally better I do. I do have flair-ups, and I take all kinds of supposedly anti-inflammatory substances. WRT eggs (and apparently beef) would I benefit from more or less? Is there a list you trust? PS: You probably know my doctor in Denver, and he didn't say anything about my homocysteine level. 😕 I'm also trying to lower my iron (or rather, RBC, hemoglobin and hematocrit, which are all three high) so I give blood every 10 weeks.
I changed my diet to full eggs, meat, milk, some vegetables, beans and lots of water and few coffee. I'm still getting into it, but I can tell you all I quit sugar and most processed food by now and I'm so proud of myself. I'm looking better and feeling more energetic by a lot.
I have eaten 4 eggs a day for years. I am 42, 165 cm and 48 kgs. I don't eat meat, and eggs are my main source of protein. I feel super healthy, don't need to snack, don't eat breakfast, lean and mean, and sleep well with lots of focus. I have enough energy to hike a mountain most days, so I am not concerned about cholesterol. Dr Ekberg is 1000% correct. Thank you and hej from Norway.
I eat at least 2 eggs everyday and my cholesterol is: Total cholesterol was 169, Triglycerides 42, HDL 64, VLDL 9, & LDL 96. I just had my Aortic Valve replaced due to a 4-5mm hole in it caused by endocarditis at some time in my life. I’m 61 years old and have lost 150lbs by eating low carb, IF, & OMAD. I went from 321lbs to 170lbs in 2 years, and have maintained it for 2 years - so a total of 4 years. My heart surgeon was amazed at how clean my arteries were. If I hadn’t lost the 150lbs, I don’t know if I would’ve bounced back from the open heart surgery. I’m 13 weeks post surgery and I can perform dumbbell training & cardio training.
Amazing. I’m 25 and following Ekbergs teachings started the meat diet and lest meals a day/ fasting… my cholesterol is was 180🤔 wish I knew more… Keep up the good fight, god bless, stay strong, keep true!
So this is why my brother who has been eating eggs for almost all meals his entire life since we were kids, is such a bright and strong man. We thought he was not getting any nutrients/vitamins/minerals at all. So glad to have come across this!
Fascinating, my brother also eats a ton of eggs, because he has like 30 chickens and ducks and must eat eggs or else the eggs rot. He is healthy, strong, and smart also.
@@soccerlegend9780 One of my local farms advertises theirs as free range but according to Dr. Ekberg they are pasture raised. Not all farms are the same when they claim free range.
Thanks! While the science behind healthy eggs is vital, I just wanted to know what his recommendations were for heating them. I was afraid he was going to say, "drink raw with tobasco sauce" or something disgusting like that!
I've been eating 3-4 eggs/day for pretty much my whole life. I'm 45 and had a calcium score of 0. I've very active in my job and do hard cardio as well as lift. I get my bloods done every 4 months and feel great. Eggs aren't the enemy the environment and garbage they add to food is.
@@bharatchaudhary664 It's never been high but my dad on the other hand has had high cholesterol his whole life. I have bloods done every 4 months and I'm on 80mgs TRT. I eat fruits, veg and meat. TRY and stay away from sugar as much as possible. Cardio has always been huge for me and I enjoy it. Think David Goggins.
@@ophrasbankaccount7716 Scrambled and I sometime make Coach Greg French toast haha. Mostly scrambled and chop up two apples and eat those on the way to and from work. Snack on cut up meat throughout the day. Meat/fish and veg for dinner. Red Beard Hot Sauce! Get your bloods done and do your cardio. And get a progressive Doc that knows what he's doing!
I am a public school teacher, and I rarely see individuals who can competently teach a subject (including college professors). You are natural at it, sir.
Thank you for recognizing this. My little brother came home from school and said they were teaching him that whole milk was the least healthiest, less healthy than reduced fat milk. I have no degrees but it’s my understanding that you need the fat and the least amount of pasteurization. More fat so there’s more vitamin and mineral absorption, and pasteurization kills more good than bad. Leaving behind lots of DEAD bacteria from pasteurization. Anybody remember when fda was contaminating milk at supermarkets to force them into pasteurization processes? Eventually putting local farmers out of business due to “safety” standards. One time they actually got brought to court because of their evil doings, so when they LOST their case, they just contaminated the same supermarkets milk until they could no longer afford the court fees. It’s almost as if the FDA/EPA are forms of control beyond our comprehension all the way down the the very studies they choose to base their regulations on. You even see it with wild game management in some states with pigs, wolves, and other animals
@AntiZio Stench Finger who else is teaching your kids anything else? teachers do a job, some of us teachers teach all the good we have learned in our lives regardless what else we have to teach. I alway ammend my teaching and never teach anything do not agree with. You are just rude, ignorant and unrealistic. No need for this negative reply.
@@kadinhendrickson8968 I started to drink 1L fat milk a day because i didn't wanna eat another meal (I prefer two) and wow what an effect i'm energic af all the time
@@nenadcveleUnfortunately in this particular case the numbers he shows seem to be misinterpreted. The only study I could find that compares whole eggs to egg whites (van Vliet 2017) did show that whole egg consumption resulted in more muscle synthesis, but they did not show that 50% number, and more importantly while they did match protein content between interventions, they did not match the fat content (i.e. the egg-white only group consumed zero fats), which probably explains the difference. In any kind of balanced diet the egg whites would probably be consumed with healthy fats, likely resulting in comparable protein utilization. Also, looking at the comments it seems that most viewers missed the part where healthy whole eggs only come from pasture-raised (not even free-range) hens that are not fed soy and corn (or at least are fed high-oleic varieties of soy and corn), which are exceedingly rare. The vast majority of people eating 4 or more whole eggs a day receive excessive amounts of linoleic acid (omega 6 PUFA) with those eggs and that is not healthy!
i am a senior citizen who lives in the country by myself and no car. you and a few others have been my teachers on my keto path these past 3 + years, i am truly grateful. ty
@@jojijoji88 NO WAY!! Do NOT give up on eggs! The commercial eggs, whilst not ideal, are MUCH better than nothing. Listen to the video from 6:11 to 6:50 . He explains the difference between commercial eggs and pasture raised eggs. *The micronutrient numbers on the screen are from commercial eggs* , but if you eat pasture raised eggs they will have MORE of those nutrients. The eggs you are eating are still VERY VERY nutritious, especially in comparison to other foods.
My dad has over 20000 chickens on a 120 hectare certified organic citrus farm. They eat a completely organic non-gmo feed. He designed is own mobile home where 300 chickens stay closed in and safe at night to protect them from predators. The mobile home also has close to 50 private “rooms” which each chicken can creep in and lay an egg. They sleep from 6pm - 5am. During the day they roam underneath the citrus trees and hunt the little bugs, eat, drink water, take a sand baths, chase each other and rest. The eggs are sooooo beautiful and quite large. Not to mention extremely tasty. We call them the happiest chickens in South Africa. I believe they truly are because none of them are scared of human interaction.
@@wc4865 we are located in South Africa, kirkwood. If u can get there then yes, we are always open to visitors because we are the only people in SA to have certified organic non gmo eggs.
Wow! How nice! I've been reading about the neatest livestock guardian dogs - maremma. They are so neat. They live with their livestock and take care of business. There are many UA-cam posts on them and they are just the best! Does your family use something like them??
From USA. Thanks! Excellent info. I’m 70, in good shape, eat organic beef organic almost everything. Recent bloodwork had the young doctor saying my numbers are better than his. After watching this, I’m going to look for pasture, raised, and pasteurized. Eating three eggs a day now maybe I’ll go up to 4-5
I’ve learned so much from you. I credit you and this UA-cam channel for changing my life completely. I’m becoming a totally different person. My gut, my brain chemistry, my body composition, everything down to the core is experiencing changes and growth. I feel better than ever and am starting to look the part! Thank you Doc 🙏
Thank you Josh Bonilla. I really appreciate your feedback and so glad that you liked it. The purpose of my channel is to explain things better than other channels and help people understand the principles. I spend so much time on it because when we get "the why" and the mechanism we become empowered for life . Comments like yours makes it all worthwhile. 😄
This is a really meaningful (i.e., holding real substance) endorsement of this channel’s value. You incite me to really take this content seriously, as in buckling down to apply what I am learning here to my own life. I’d best start at the beginning - in the archives - and take notes! 😄 👍
@@drekberg I can’t believe I got a heart from Dr. Sten Ekberg. Thank you so much for your time to explain how the body works. Even though he never diagnosed me, he is actually the only primary doctor I have. All of my pre-diabetes symptoms were gone naturally last year, no meds, and I am healthier than people in my peers, mid-30s. And healthier than I was in my 20s.
In Estonia, eggs are classified in 4 categories by law, 0-3. It is printed to every egg, and category 0 means that it is mandatory for the hens to have access to outdoor areas. Also, the birds are not kept in cages and there must not be more than 6 chickens per 1 m² area. The chickens are guaranteed 8 hours of light-free time per day. I buy only these
Many get duped by this. Having access to outdoors and actually getting time outdoors are two different things as Dr Seen pointed out. Tiny Door at the end of the shed gives 99% no access at all....But it's there.
@@jacobgroenveld5821 Yes, and he didn't mention that actually the "outdoor" area is likely only a *tiny* patch of ground (that is never used by the chickens). And Raido, before you get too excited...that's only 1.8 sq ft per chicken.
@@vanillaghetto I just checked the farm homepage. All good with chickens :) they have plenty of space outside. I think you do not understand, this is not US, where greedy mega corporations do everything to maximise profits. This is EU, where 99% of local farming is heavily subsidised by EU foundations.
Also in Estonia, almost all food-store chains have agreed to sell only “happy” chicken’s eggs by 2025. It means that cage eggs will be banned entirely.
I’ve had MS for 22 years. Aside from the stress from my career, I’m convinced that the “fat free” craze I lived thru was instrumental in stripping the myelin from my nerves. Just recently needed meds to help with depression and fatigue. Started eating more eggs. Now I’m gonna eat a whole lot more 🥚 Any advice? Thank you for your wealth of information- Ingrid
After doing 10 years research, I think most auto immune diseases are caused by vaccines (all vaccines). The vaccinen cult says they are perfect, but that is just a religious belief
Thank Ancel Keyes, who did a "study", to prove what to who? Nevertheless a lie and probably paid handsomely. The creator of the high carb, low fat diet lie we lived for 50 years and created the huge numbers of obesity.
I've been trying the protocol set by Dr Terry Wahl with some improvement. You're correct about healthy fats (eggs, butter/ghee/avocados, etc) if we don't have the building blocks we can't heal. My liver was damaged by the Mirena IUD so processing anything's been difficult, but as my liver heals, so does the rest of me. I wish you the best of luck and encourage you to look up Dr Terry Wahl...everything you need to know is free of charge on her website.
In France, pasture raised - Plein Air means they are outside for a minimum of houts per day, during minimum 162 days per year. Moreover, in France, organic eggs implies that they are Plein Air. Corn makes the yellow very yellow, included in caged-hen eggs
@@drekberg : Dr, I appreciate all your teachings. Please help my family understand and determine what would be the best diet for our 32 yrs old son diagnosed with Church Strauss 🙏
I love the statement you made in one of your other videos about eating bad food, like most of the eggs that are mass farmed. You said something like "you can't get well eating sick food". Now I use that quote very frequently. Listening to your food advice has made it very easy to know what is sick food and healthy food. On behalf of all of us, I want to thank you oh so very much for the mountain range of very healthy information you freely give us!
I have been eating 5 eggs for breakfast for about 20 years now. I feel great, look great, and perform great. Doctor says my blood work looks great. And I'm 100% healthy
Hello Doc...i' m a ophthalmic surgeon at AIIMS,Delhi India...I would like to thank you for such a nice and elaborating video on benefits of egg ..with clinical correlation and explaining key enzymes ...with rationale behind ..
To me, this is the best channel to learn about health and nutrition. So clearly explained (much thought behind it, ect), so organized. Thank U Dr Ekberg for your easy going but fun presentation 🧡 even your power points are always screen shot worthy 😃
I’ve eaten six eggs a day and a ribeye every day for 1.5 years and I’ve lost 60 pounds, cured my autoimmune disorders, reversed cavities, and can sleep without snoring. Food habits can save lives
I’ve been eating five soft boiled (or sunny side up), eggs a day for the last 8+ years and I make sure that they are organic pasture, raised chickens. I make sure that they are soft boiled and not hard boiled so the cholesterol is in a liquid format for better digestion and absorption. I also incorporate about a gallon of Alkalized and ionized Water a day, as well as a mixed berry/spinach and plant protein-based shake that also has 2 tablespoons of Braggs apple cider vinegar. This has helped me maintain healthy regimen as well as my weight.
I make scrambled eggs and fry them with water instead of oil or butter. I don't think the taste is that bad, does it harm the nutrients? Is making them with butter really the best option? Oh, I'm Brazilian.🇧🇷 Thank you in advance for the content, it was really informative.
I came across your video incidentally. I must say, to me, there has never been a doctor who has explained and disambiguated misunderstanding surrounding eggs, cholesterol and its associated claimed diseases like you. Thank you very much Dr. Sten. Your elegance, poise and calm explanation makes it super easy to understand. It's true that teaching is an art!
I have always believed that eating more than 2 eggs per day would spike your cholesterol level which is not good for your heart until this video. Thank you for clarifying this issue.
Si. Este dr. es un magnifico maestro. Usa la didáctica a plenitud. ¡ Cuanto quisiera que los medicos peruanos tuvieran un 20 por ciento de los conocimientos y el uso de la didáctica de este SR. DR.Un excepcional seguidor de Hipocrates.
I have been eating 5 eggs for breakfast 5 to 6 times a week for over a year and I still haven't got sick of them. They are very healthy and also pretty cheap.
Yeah they are getting more and more expensive, personally I try to get them from a local farmer because the price is almost the same as the store bought
Hello Dr Ekberg, I would like to thank you so much for all of the information that you have given me. I have been given a new lease on life thanks to you. I have watched your channel for about a year and a half and in that time, I have lost 90lbs. I am no longer diabetic or have high blood pressure anymore. You are a real lifesaver. I tell everyone that I meet about your channel and how much you have helped me. Thank you so much, Best regards, Dave McKim
I’ve been eating 4 eggs a day for several years now. At 42 years old, standing 165 cm tall, and weighing 48 kg, eggs have become my primary source of protein since I don’t consume meat. I feel fantastic - energized, focused, and rarely feel the need to snack. I skip breakfast and maintain a lean, healthy physique. I sleep soundly and have enough stamina to hike mountains almost daily. Cholesterol isn’t a concern for me at all. Dr. Ekberg’s insights are absolutely spot-on. A big thanks and greetings from Norway!
I live in third world country and cannot ascertain what type of eggs we get. However I gain tremendous amount of knowledge through your presentation especially when I started intermittent fasting. I am 66 and I can only follow 168 or 186 If, I had tried omad but started having purplish fingers after the second day. So back to 2 meals and I lost 9 kgs and now I started having some amount of carb and eat 211, ie 2 portions of vegetables, 1 portion of protein and 1 portion of carb and my weight is kept constant and felt super good, I have no more knee pain when walk upstairs! Tqvm Dr Ekberg for painstakingly impart knowledge on us. Keep up with your great work. Thanks again
You probably get higher quality eggs lol. In your country importing industrialized tech and food(garbage) that allows chickens to be raised faster is more expensive. Because land is cheaper in ratio to these things.
I have never come across someone that gave me so much detailed information and it didn't bore me one bit until now! The way you talk, your appearance, body language, the information you give right from micronutrients, macronutrients, their uses and even how to best cook them..Wow! I am eternally thankful to youtube for showing me that someone like you exists in this world! Thanks a lot 😍🤗
I eat 4-5 free range eggs every morning, normally blended in a shake with fruits, oats + peanut butter, and it fills me up for a good 4 hours. I'm 6'2 and around 209lb (95kg in old money) and have been doing this since I was 16 when I wanted to bulk up in the gym. People are still shocked at the amount of eggs I eat and I always hear the same criticism saying it will raise my cholesterol.. Even though I know I feel great I went to get this checked out, just to see if this was the case. Turns out I have high levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, also known as the "good" cholesterol.
In the UK, eggs sold in supermarkets are NOT washed. And recommendations are NOT to keep them in the fridge, because the natural coating of a laid egg, preserves it a long time. Thankfully we have four backyard chickens, it's definitely worth keeping your own ❤
Dr Ekberg, you did it again! 👏 delivered tremendously good information. I love eggs!...not any kind of eggs but only pasture raised. I don't follow anyone else's advice anymore but only yours, because it all makes sense. I give your name and channel to everyone I meet. Let's grow the health champions by the millions!!🏆😄
I really appreciate your videos, thank you. A few years ago I was not able to eat eggs. I used to get nauseous, burp and it smelled like sulphur. That happened for years so it was not just a particular purchase that was bad. I could not even eat a bite without this happening. I tried keto for about 6 months. It is easier to follow when my husband and I follow it together. So, anyhow, for some reason I can now eat eggs with no issues. I don’t know what changed but I am happy to be able to eat eggs now.
I had this same problem. I ended up doing the elmination diet of carnivore. I found that people have a whole mess load of food intolerances/allergies that they aren't aware of. For me, this caused a lot of gastric distress, and once those things were gone, I can now eat foods that used to bloat me.
As someone who is in the commercial egg business, it's true what he says about quality. I've gone to a commercial "organic free range" egg producer barns weekly, and not once did I ever see a chicken outside. Their excuse is that the chickens don't want to go out, yet my personal chickens at home nearly murder me trying to get out everyday. In Canada, only a couple companies run the whole show and run the boards, so they basically do whatever they want, however deceptively they like to do it.
Why are all the industries that supply all of our food so corrupt? It's the worst because so many good and innocent people don't deserve to be forced to consume compromised things. Food is like the 1 thing we have
I eat 5 eggs for breakfast every morning with Crystal hot sauce, and 1/2 an avocado. I feel full and it gives me ~30g of protein with healthy fat to start my day.
I eat the same, eggs with avocado for breakfast. My cholesterol is perfect and I gained a lot of muscle since I eat more eggs. It is the best protein in the world in my humble opinion. And so many good fats.
Thank you Dr. Ekberg for bringing sanity and health to those of us trapped in a dysfunctional health system and befuddled society. Thank you. Keep spreading wisdom.
You’re right. We don’t know where to turn to get the right information about health. I reached a point where I didn’t want to watch any more health videos. I came across Dr. Sten’s video on the topic of thyroid disease (I have hypothyroidism). I watched it out of curiosity and got hooked up. I heard things from him that I hadn’t heard from so many endocrinologists that I’ve been to for so many years. I thank you Dr. Sten.
I remember as a Cub Scout in the 60’s we toured the purine research farm. One of things that stuck in my mind is the showed us eggs with vibrant red, green and orange yolks. They said the achieved this by feeding fat soluble food dye. This has stuck with me to the point that I have had my own chickens and eggs. In fact I become tired of store bought eggs quickly
I’m now so mad because I just discovered this channel now and no one in my entire life has ever taught me these. This one video gives me more knowledge than 4 years in college. Thank you so much.
Makes sense. When I was training for my Physical test back in April, All I ate was 4 eggs and 5-7 cups of cruciferous veggies for 6 days. Fasted every Sunday. Was just doing OMAD. I was feeling fine the entire time and losing a lot of weight (mostly fat). I say that because I was also weight lifting pretty hard, and running. Throughout 6 weeks, I was thinking I am probably going to lose my muscles/strength. But no, I was still getting stronger. It was slower than when I usually eat twice a day, but still stronger. Way better than what I used to do. Drinking smoothies twice a day to lose weight. Was feeling all sorts of lethargic. Also, for the past 4 years, I always start that routine 2 months in advance and usually lose 40lbs. I never stick to it after my test and the weight jumps bacc up. But this time this year, I've decided to keep eating once a day and lost an extra 30 lbs by the end of year. Since, I am a gamer, I found ways to walk slowly for hours on a treadmill while playing. Like my last stream.
I was completely broke and only ate can sardines and frozen greens for about 2 weeks while doing a labouring job. My energy levels where fine and I lost body fat. Outlook on food changed to instead of something to feel nice with but fuel.
Where l live you only get eggs from hens in little cages. Lots of farmers with a lot of open spaces but they prefer this cruelty. When the hens come out off that cages they can't walk. What animals go through to feed us.
Watching this videos I’m realising how lucky we are in Italy. Food , even the cheapest, is always an high quality food. Often you speak about food that in Italy does not even exist. Maybe this is why we are healthier than in other countries ❤️
I lived in Italy and ate bread and pasta and cheese and sauces and tons of fruits and vegetables and meats and never ever got sick or had weight problems. In America they fortify the food here with synthetic vitamins like folic acid which is a big problem if you have the mthfr gene mutation, which I have. Food in America is poison. I miss the good quality food in Italy!
French, Japan are healthiest because they eat lots of animal fat. They don't use vegetable oil like US. Unsaturated oil from plants-based are highly toxic it causes cancer, diabetes and all source of autoimmune.
The reason America’s food is poison is because they’re trying to bring down the best country in the world by making the people sick. However, we are still here and we will get rid of the poison very soon.😊
I once saw an interview with Dr. DeBakey, the famous heart surgeon, where he was asked why he ate 5 eggs every morning and he responded, "I like eggs." I'm sure he was aware of the improvements in his blood work. He put it simply that we don't know what causes atherosclerosis. A large portion of his heart patients didn't have high cholesterol.
3 years ago, when I started to become aware of the problems with starch/sugar, I learned from Dr. Sten that excess protein can trigger insuline to some degree. I also learned from him that eggs are a great source of micronutrients. So, my 1st meal (of 2) is mostly eggs and bacon. I use 2 whole eggs plus 2 separated yolks. I've been able to keep my weight at ~160 and the blood tests at my doctor's office have been good.
Protein uses halve the amount of insulin compared with carbs/sugar. Even with fat the pancreas makes insulin only in minimal amount. T1D here so I know
I used to have about half a dozen chickens a few years ago, and they lived in a very calm area out on the countryside, so they spent literally all day outside every day, and then casually walked back to their hen house in the evening when they felt like it (which was basically early in the evening). It was very wholesome to see them walk around everywhere like that.
5 hens would give you 5 eggs a day on some days but only 3 or 4 on many days. 7 hens would give you 5 pretty much every day for their entire mature lifespan.
November last year I had my blood tests done. And though my blood pressure was normal, and cholesterol a tiny bit too high, I was told that I was prediabetic. I decided enough was enough. For nine months I've been working out daily, cut out practical all cereals, legumes and starchy vegetables (except oats, I love my oats) and eaten a diet containing basically of meat, vegetables and dairy, while counting my calorie intake. Eggs has been my go-to protein. I've gone through 1,5-2 trays a week (15 per tray) as it was the cheapest. Both the eggs and meat comes from a local farm that raise their animals on pastures. Two months ago I had my blood tested again: Blood pressure even lower, cholesterol within normal ranges, the amount of blood lipid more than halved and no longer prediabetic. I've also lost nearly 30kg, and is only 8kg from my target weight. Once I reach that goal I'll stop CICO and do rolling fasts for real. A lot of the info I collected before fixing my diet came from you, and made it much easier for me to process exactly what was going on when you eat different foods.
@@rofree2470 Yes! I either have overnight oats with whole milk and cinnamon, or I'll make them as a side for dinner with either a morroccan or curry spice blend. Oats are amazing.
I eat 2 eggs twice or 3 times a day. Sometimes even more. Some days even more. I love eggs. Never have i had any cholesterol problems. As long we hit the workout hours and have an active life. Just make sure it is good eggs, not low quality eggs. Stay healthy, everyone.
@JohnnySins-q3n oh ibeill eat the yummy yolk. 3white 2 yolk. On everage iveat 28 eggs per week. Workout 3 times a week. Never have high blood instead low. My bp is 106 to 110. Heart 58 to 68. I walk very often. And always have enough sleep. I LOVE EGGS AND MILK MIX WITH OATS.
@JohnnySins-q3n i know but i have been eating it for 30yrs. They are gd eggs fed with carrots. So far, my scans says im gd. Lucky i don eat animal fats. It's the only over eat is yolk. 💔😥😢. But why my report n scan say im clear?
It is so difficult to break people out of the fear of fat and cholesterol. Many vastly beneficial food sources such as eggs have been demonized for so long, sadly based on poorly constructed and executed theories and studies. Decades of faulty yet universally accepted beliefs isn't going away overnight. Keep up your informed teachings, Doc! Thank you!

Morning starts everyday (some sundays i skip) with 5 eggs and 4-5 slices of bacon and thats it. No juice or bread or anything else and i feel great. Doing this for 3 years now and also increased meat consumption from maybe 400-500g to 700-800g a day. Body lean mass increased, no more fatiqueness, feel more mentally stable. Just some things to point out from eating more fat and protein.
Hello Sten. I can't tell you how much I love and appreciate your work. I truly believe that you have helped to save the lives of so many people. I don't no how I missed this video until today, but I can tell you that it is a game changer for me!! From this moment on I will go through each and every video you have ever posted. The knowledge you share with us for free is so important that I vow to share with it with any and all I meet!! Keep up the great work. You are a God send!!!!!!
A tip on a totally different topic. Lots of people use canned beans but they have trouble digesting them because of the lectins in the beans. Soaking them overnight is a great way to reduce lectins (these cause bloating and gas) but pressure cooking them after soaking also reduces a lot of the lectins. If you don't want to do that the only brand of canned beans that are presoaked and pressure cooked before canning are Eden beans.
Funny that I read this immediately after finishing a can of beans! I gently re-fried them in a small amount of olive oil. I added garlic powder while cooking. After that, I put them in a bowl and topped them off with shredded cheese and sour cream. You should try it!
I have no enough words to describe my gratitude for your work, disposition, knowledge and generosity, dr Ekberg! What you do is amazing. Keep up with your good work. I have a feeling that we all should be homesteaders and grow our own food. Eating better and more natural ain’t cheap. Hospitals and pills are even more expensive. Not to mention well being and the way we want to age. We got do our very best according to personal circumstances.
So happy to hear your take on eggs. I remember the cholesterol scare that started in the late 70's but never really trusted it. As a young athlete I was very interested in the role of protein and each amino acid in athletic performance. One book on amino acids had a chapter entitled "The Much Maligned Egg" that basically made many of the same points you do. So, I have long included quality eggs in my diet and have never had problems as a result.
I eat 5 eggs a day now and feel great! I raise my own chickens and so took eggs for granted and didn't always eat them. Now, It's my first meal around noon. I swear I feel my body healing, more energy, better mood and less pain. I feel stronger.
Great video of explaining chicken egg quality. I used to buy the Happy Egg brand, but even the organic type is not pasture raised. I choose Vital Farms, which is pasture raised. That brand sources various farmers who allow their chickens to be free and roam and eat from the land.
I also buy Vital Farm eggs, but was disappointed they feed the boy chicks into a grinder hopper bc they will not become egg producers….currently researching more humane certified …but still eating Vital Farms eggs bc they really are rich and so good
I have been doing this so far for 2.5 weeks (after first watching this segment), and my hair and skin look amazing. Eggs are definitely exceptionally nutricious!
What an amazing presentation, thank you! I changed my work lunches from white bread and processed meat sandwiches to vegetables and 4 eggs months ago. It changed my body composition and my overall energy levels and strength. Even my running endurance has improved!
@StatikTiger Lots of protein, and hitting the weights harder. Keep in mind my gains are not crazy. My bench went up 20lbs. Dumbbell inclines up 10lbs. Squat up 30lbs.
Thank you so much for including how to prepare the eggs! I have started watching your videos and they are helping me get on track with my eating and health. Finally feel like I’m going in the right direction and have someone to help me, inspire me and answer so many questions! Thank you!
Many thanks, great video Dr. Sten Ekberg. When I grew up as a child we always had our own chickens. One rooster and about 10 chickens. They would roam around our property, which was a rural community, and we lived on 5 acres. I remember we let them out all day to forage around the property and we had horses, a barn and vegetable garden. Soon as sunset hit, the chickens would all head for the ‘hen house’ and we’d lock them up safely for the night. Best eggs ever! I’ve always loved eggs and I have no problem with consuming several a day. These ‘real’ free-range chicken eggs are considered ‘gold’ by chefs! We would sell them to local chefs who would never bother with store-bought eggs.
This is amazing, totally explains why sugars go up after eating (too much) protein. I am type 1 diabetic. Also on statins. I am Raising chickens. Eggs should be here any moment -Pasture raised chickens. I am getting on the right track and this confirms it. So thankful for all the effort you put into this excellent presentation!
About 30 years ago, I began reading and following the advice (for the most part) of the late Vince Gironda. Eggs as a source of high quality, bioavailable protein, was a big part of his advice. I'm 62 years old, no gut, still have a 6 pack and have excellent cardiovascular health. Great to hear that the "Cholesterol Myth" attributed to eggs is well and truly dead.
I ate 4 eggs every day starting 4 months ago for my diet then I lose weight. my sleep also during night time much better. Thank you doc. Very impressive video.
I’ve eaten 4-6 eggs every day (or more) for the last 15+ years. I really appreciate all your content and value the knowledge that you share. However this video was especially interesting for me. Thank you, Dr. Ekberg
I often ask about how many is to many, seems like no answer. Do you have a opinion about how much is to much? My average is likely 5 and a pound or so of 🥩.
Love your videos, so comprehensive and clear. Slowly also discovering that subtle humour too. I am still laughing at the analogy for the 'MTHFR' and the bouncy scrambled egg. 😂
Dr. Ekberg, you are such an excellent teacher. Thanks for being so patient and making certain that your audience has a pure understanding of all that you are talking about.
I learn so much from your videos. It’s crazy that my family Dr is so surprised when I talk to her and she has no clue what I’m talking about. But, the really amazing thing Is that she listens and gets herself educated on the topics we talk about. Why isn’t this a part of a Dr’s education?
If you want to learn EVERYTHING about a certain topic, you have two options: You can either spend hours, days, weeks, or even months researching the topic, OR watch ONE video from Dr. Sten Ekberg's channel. I'm so grateful to UA-cam and to you Dr. Ekberg for these invaluable videos! I save them and keep referring to them over and over every time I need info about a health related topic!
Agreed but I like to search for a video that contradicts this information its always good to see both spectrums but as always this feed is always provided with way more credible information explained fully and not just because I say so information.
Superb explanation about eggs. I have them almost every day (from regenerative farms, pasture raised), plus keto/carnivore diet. Very healthy at 67 years of age. Going skiing in Colorado mountains, where I live, blue runs at 12,000 ft.
A few years back they interviewed the oldest living woman at that time and asked her what she ate, she told them eggs, eggs and eggs, occasionally a piece of chicken, no veggies.
I am a retired RN. I bucked the system years ago after realizing with the knowledge that I had garnered (NOT from Western Medicine!) that eggs were the near-perfect food. I have a very large, green-grass pasture and typically keep approximately 25 hens (and one good rooster 🐓 who looks out for trouble). The hens absolutely prefer to free range for their food versus eating supplemental feed. For safety reasons I let them free range 2-3 hours in the morning and 2-3 hours in the mid-aftenoon (they need only 2 hours to fill their crops) then round them up and place them back into a large pen attached to the barn...this keeps them safe from predators... but each time they are pastured they are fully fed. My hens are so much more important to me than any beef cattle, pigs, lamb, or any other meat animals that I could raise, as the protein from the eggs is so perfect. They are utterly happy chickens, and believe me, that makes a difference in the end product. I apply absolutely no pesticides or toxins to my pasture. What I don't eat I give away to my friends or to the food bank in town. I am very lucky to be able to get all of my protein needs from my pasture via my hens.
It saddens me that my Grandmother who was a farmers wife lived in severe rural poverty was following her doctors direction about her arteriosclerosis and gave up eating eggs and butter. She had a hen house and the low cost protein would have substantially added to the health of her diet.
Every minute of this video answers at least one of the questions I and my family have had about our bodies' needs for the various and/or correct proteins. Thank you so much, Dr. Ekberg!
I take in usually 3-4 raw eggs daily, blended into full fat coconut milk. I get my eggs from a local organic Amish family. They have 100 hens that are outside pecking around the yard any day that isn’t terrible weather. These are some of the best eggs I’ve ever had and I’ve grown up on home raised eggs! I get 10 doz per week lately and I water glass and dehydrate them for long term storage. Don’t want to ever run out! I am about to start another egg fast. I did one a few years ago when I was very ill from acute tick diseases. It helped tremendously. I did 6 raw eggs daily in full fat coconut milk. I’ll do similar again. Choline is necessary to heal the cell membrane & mitochondria which are damaged by toxic indoor mold (which destroyed my health before I got the tick bite that took me over the edge and nearly killed me). My health crashed from indoor mold January 2013 then April 2016 I got the tick diseases that nearly killed me several times over the next several years.
Dr. Ekberg, I appreciate you and your content so much. You educate us so clearly, without sensationalism, celebrity status or fads. You must be my favourite voice on nutrition on UA-cam at the moment. Your family are very lucky to have your guidance.
I’ve watched a bunch of your videos, very informative, but the one thing I appreciate about you Doc, amongst other things, is your subtle sense of humor. 😂😂😂

Are there any health advantages to eating a boiled egg vs a scrambled egg vs a fried egg?
I'm a little confused. Are you saying with my homocysteine of 13.5, I should simply supplement, or could benefit from altering my diet, or both? I have degenerative disc disease, and going magnesium supplementation and keto have changed my life (seemingly, so has benfotiamine.) The higher my ketones, the generally better I do. I do have flair-ups, and I take all kinds of supposedly anti-inflammatory substances. WRT eggs (and apparently beef) would I benefit from more or less? Is there a list you trust?
PS: You probably know my doctor in Denver, and he didn't say anything about my homocysteine level. 😕 I'm also trying to lower my iron (or rather, RBC, hemoglobin and hematocrit, which are all three high) so I give blood every 10 weeks.
you never talk much about pork. what is your view of pork? as it is a cheaper meat i eat it most of the time. pork shoulder bone steaks.
I changed my diet to full eggs, meat, milk, some vegetables, beans and lots of water and few coffee.
I'm still getting into it, but I can tell you all I quit sugar and most processed food by now and I'm so proud of myself.
I'm looking better and feeling more energetic by a lot.
Ditch the milk. Add 5% Greek unsweetened yogurt.
Why in the world would you eat beans and milk??? Adults don’t need milk. Beans are nothing but carbs (sugar). Good grief man.

I have eaten 4 eggs a day for years. I am 42, 165 cm and 48 kgs. I don't eat meat, and eggs are my main source of protein. I feel super healthy, don't need to snack, don't eat breakfast, lean and mean, and sleep well with lots of focus. I have enough energy to hike a mountain most days, so I am not concerned about cholesterol. Dr Ekberg is 1000% correct. Thank you and hej from Norway.
Do you run too? Sounds like you're physically fit without excessive bodyweight.
Do you eat the eggs raw or cooked?
I want to be 48 Kg too. How to so that.

I eat at least 2 eggs everyday and my cholesterol is: Total cholesterol was 169, Triglycerides 42, HDL 64, VLDL 9, & LDL 96. I just had my Aortic Valve replaced due to a 4-5mm hole in it caused by endocarditis at some time in my life. I’m 61 years old and have lost 150lbs by eating low carb, IF, & OMAD. I went from 321lbs to 170lbs in 2 years, and have maintained it for 2 years - so a total of 4 years. My heart surgeon was amazed at how clean my arteries were. If I hadn’t lost the 150lbs, I don’t know if I would’ve bounced back from the open heart surgery. I’m 13 weeks post surgery and I can perform dumbbell training & cardio training.
Way to go!!!
Wow! Doing well. Congratulations!!!
Amazing. I’m 25 and following Ekbergs teachings started the meat diet and lest meals a day/ fasting… my cholesterol is was 180🤔 wish I knew more…

@@evanvancamp8376 Thank you
So this is why my brother who has been eating eggs for almost all meals his entire life since we were kids, is such a bright and strong man. We thought he was not getting any nutrients/vitamins/minerals at all. So glad to have come across this!
free range eggs are almost twice the nutrition 😊
Fascinating, my brother also eats a ton of eggs, because he has like 30 chickens and ducks and must eat eggs or else the eggs rot. He is healthy, strong, and smart also.

I am a public school teacher, and I rarely see individuals who can competently teach a subject (including college professors). You are natural at it, sir.
Thank you for recognizing this. My little brother came home from school and said they were teaching him that whole milk was the least healthiest, less healthy than reduced fat milk.
I have no degrees but it’s my understanding that you need the fat and the least amount of pasteurization. More fat so there’s more vitamin and mineral absorption, and pasteurization kills more good than bad. Leaving behind lots of DEAD bacteria from pasteurization.
Anybody remember when fda was contaminating milk at supermarkets to force them into pasteurization processes?
Eventually putting local farmers out of business due to “safety” standards. One time they actually got brought to court because of their evil doings, so when they LOST their case, they just contaminated the same supermarkets milk until they could no longer afford the court fees.
It’s almost as if the FDA/EPA are forms of control beyond our comprehension all the way down the the very studies they choose to base their regulations on.
You even see it with wild game management in some states with pigs, wolves, and other animals
Can he show proofs for what he's saying? I haven't seen any so far. Saying something doesn't make it truth.

@@kadinhendrickson8968 I started to drink 1L fat milk a day because i didn't wanna eat another meal (I prefer two) and wow what an effect i'm energic af all the time
@@nenadcveleUnfortunately in this particular case the numbers he shows seem to be misinterpreted. The only study I could find that compares whole eggs to
egg whites (van Vliet 2017) did show that whole egg consumption resulted in more muscle synthesis, but they did not show that 50% number, and more importantly while they did match protein content between interventions, they did not match the fat content (i.e. the egg-white only group consumed zero fats), which probably explains the difference. In any kind of balanced diet the egg whites would probably be consumed with healthy fats, likely resulting in comparable protein utilization.
Also, looking at the comments it seems that most viewers missed the part where healthy whole eggs only come from pasture-raised (not even free-range) hens that are not fed soy and corn (or at least are fed high-oleic varieties of soy and corn), which are exceedingly rare. The vast majority of people eating 4 or more whole eggs a day receive excessive amounts of linoleic acid (omega 6 PUFA) with those eggs and that is not healthy!

@@RayH- scrabbled but left a little runny if I can eat them fresh. Hard boiled and pickled when I need them for snacks later
@@jojijoji88 NO WAY!! Do NOT give up on eggs! The commercial eggs, whilst not ideal, are MUCH better than nothing. Listen to the video from 6:11 to 6:50 . He explains the difference between commercial eggs and pasture raised eggs. *The micronutrient numbers on the screen are from commercial eggs* , but if you eat pasture raised eggs they will have MORE of those nutrients. The eggs you are eating are still VERY VERY nutritious, especially in comparison to other foods.

My dad has over 20000 chickens on a 120 hectare certified organic citrus farm. They eat a completely organic non-gmo feed. He designed is own mobile home where 300 chickens stay closed in and safe at night to protect them from predators. The mobile home also has close to 50 private “rooms” which each chicken can creep in and lay an egg. They sleep from 6pm - 5am. During the day they roam underneath the citrus trees and hunt the little bugs, eat, drink water, take a sand baths, chase each other and rest. The eggs are sooooo beautiful and quite large. Not to mention extremely tasty.
We call them the happiest chickens in South Africa. I believe they truly are because none of them are scared of human interaction.

In Estonia, eggs are classified in 4 categories by law, 0-3. It is printed to every egg, and category 0 means that it is mandatory for the hens to have access to outdoor areas. Also, the birds are not kept in cages and there must not be more than 6 chickens per 1 m² area. The chickens are guaranteed 8 hours of light-free time per day. I buy only these
You are so lucky.
Many get duped by this. Having access to outdoors and actually getting time outdoors are two different things as Dr Seen pointed out. Tiny Door at the end of the shed gives 99% no access at all....But it's there.
@@jacobgroenveld5821 Yes, and he didn't mention that actually the "outdoor" area is likely only a *tiny* patch of ground (that is never used by the chickens). And Raido, before you get too excited...that's only 1.8 sq ft per chicken.
@@vanillaghetto I just checked the farm homepage. All good with chickens :) they have plenty of space outside. I think you do not understand, this is not US, where greedy mega corporations do everything to maximise profits. This is EU, where 99% of local farming is heavily subsidised by EU foundations.
Also in Estonia, almost all food-store chains have agreed to sell only “happy” chicken’s eggs by 2025. It means that cage eggs will be banned entirely.
I’ve had MS for 22 years. Aside from the stress from my career, I’m convinced that the “fat free” craze I lived thru was instrumental in stripping the myelin from my nerves.

I've been trying the protocol set by Dr Terry Wahl with some improvement. You're correct about healthy fats (eggs, butter/ghee/avocados, etc) if we don't have the building blocks we can't heal.

I’ve been eating five soft boiled (or sunny side up), eggs a day for the last 8+ years and I make sure that they are organic pasture, raised chickens. I make sure that they are soft boiled and not hard boiled so the cholesterol is in a liquid format for better digestion and absorption. I also incorporate about a gallon of Alkalized and ionized Water a day, as well as a mixed berry/spinach and plant protein-based shake that also has 2 tablespoons of Braggs apple cider vinegar. This has helped me maintain healthy regimen as well as my weight.
I make scrambled eggs and fry them with water instead of oil or butter. I don't think the taste is that bad, does it harm the nutrients? Is making them with butter really the best option? Oh, I'm Brazilian.🇧🇷 Thank you in advance for the content, it was really informative.

I tell everyone that I meet about your channel and how much you have helped me. Thank you so much, Best regards, Dave McKim
I’ve been eating 4 eggs a day for several years now. At 42 years old, standing 165 cm tall, and weighing 48 kg, eggs have become my primary source of protein since I don’t consume meat. I feel fantastic - energized, focused, and rarely feel the need to snack. I skip breakfast and maintain a lean, healthy physique. I sleep soundly and have enough stamina to hike mountains almost daily. Cholesterol isn’t a concern for me at all. Dr. Ekberg’s insights are absolutely spot-on. A big thanks and greetings from Norway!
I live in third world country and cannot ascertain what type of eggs we get. However I gain tremendous amount of knowledge through your presentation especially when I started intermittent fasting. I am 66 and I can only follow 168 or 186 If, I had tried omad but started having purplish fingers after the second day. So back to 2 meals and I lost 9 kgs and now I started having some amount of carb and eat 211, ie 2 portions of vegetables, 1 portion of protein and 1 portion of carb and my weight is kept constant and felt super good, I have no more knee pain when walk upstairs!
Tqvm Dr Ekberg for painstakingly impart knowledge on us. Keep up with your great work. Thanks again
Are you able to raise your own chickens where you live?
Your eggs are probably fantastic:))
Its probably simplest for you to buy direct from some farmer. The standards do not apply as well there.
You probably get higher quality eggs lol. In your country importing industrialized tech and food(garbage) that allows chickens to be raised faster is more expensive. Because land is cheaper in ratio to these things.

*63 Ups & Zero RePLies!!!*
I eat 4-5 free range eggs every morning, normally blended in a shake with fruits, oats + peanut butter, and it fills me up for a good 4 hours. I'm 6'2 and around 209lb (95kg in old money) and have been doing this since I was 16 when I wanted to bulk up in the gym. People are still shocked at the amount of eggs I eat and I always hear the same criticism saying it will raise my cholesterol.. Even though I know I feel great I went to get this checked out, just to see if this was the case. Turns out I have high levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, also known as the "good" cholesterol.
how tall were u when u were 16? do u think this shake made u taller?
Right , but he said pasture raised was better . Pete and Gerry's has those .
*FREE RANGE, SUCKS!!!!*
Anyone have any input on eating raw eggs. I thought that was a salmonella issue? If not, I woukd like to eat raw eggs, too.
@@Goirish1000 How would salmonella get inside an egg ?
In the UK, eggs sold in supermarkets are NOT washed. And recommendations are NOT to keep them in the fridge, because the natural coating of a laid egg, preserves it a long time. Thankfully we have four backyard chickens, it's definitely worth keeping your own ❤
I'm half the doctor's size and eat 3 pasture raised eggs a day (our own). Can't beat it. Satisfying and helps maintain my muscle mass.
I wondered this am only 5ft 2 and 10 1/2 stone . So is 5 eggs too much for my body ? I eat around 2-3 a day
Dr Ekberg, you did it again! 👏 delivered tremendously good information. I love eggs!...not any kind of eggs but only pasture raised. I don't follow anyone else's advice anymore but only yours, because it all makes sense. I give your name and channel to everyone I meet. Let's grow the health champions by the millions!!🏆😄
May I contact you?
I love how you explain things, your English is very fluent and understandable. Thank you Dr.Stien❤️❤️❤️
I really appreciate your videos, thank you.
A few years ago I was not able to eat eggs. I used to get nauseous, burp and it smelled like sulphur. That happened for years so it was not just a particular purchase that was bad. I could not even eat a bite without this happening. I tried keto for about 6 months. It is easier to follow when my husband and I follow it together. So, anyhow, for some reason I can now eat eggs with no issues. I don’t know what changed but I am happy to be able to eat eggs now.
I had this same problem. I ended up doing the elmination diet of carnivore. I found that people have a whole mess load of food intolerances/allergies that they aren't aware of. For me, this caused a lot of gastric distress, and once those things were gone, I can now eat foods that used to bloat me.
As someone who is in the commercial egg business, it's true what he says about quality.
I've gone to a commercial "organic free range" egg producer barns weekly, and not once did I ever see a chicken outside. Their excuse is that the chickens don't want to go out, yet my personal chickens at home nearly murder me trying to get out everyday.
In Canada, only a couple companies run the whole show and run the boards, so they basically do whatever they want, however deceptively they like to do it.

Why are all the industries that supply all of our food so corrupt? It's the worst because so many good and innocent people don't deserve to be forced to consume compromised things. Food is like the 1 thing we have
I eat 5 eggs for breakfast every morning with Crystal hot sauce, and 1/2 an avocado. I feel full and it gives me ~30g of protein with healthy fat to start my day.
I believe it, because your head looks like the eggshell now.
I eat the same, eggs with avocado for breakfast. My cholesterol is perfect and I gained a lot of muscle since I eat more eggs. It is the best protein in the world in my humble opinion. And so many good fats.

Thank you Dr. Ekberg for bringing sanity and health to those of us trapped in a dysfunctional health system and befuddled society. Thank you. Keep spreading wisdom.
You’re right. We don’t know where to turn to get the right information about health. I reached a point where I didn’t want to watch any more health videos. I came across Dr. Sten’s video on the topic of thyroid disease (I have hypothyroidism). I watched it out of curiosity and got hooked up. I heard things from him that I hadn’t heard from so many endocrinologists that I’ve been to for so many years.
I thank you Dr. Sten.
This Man is talking so delicately and explains everything so well, and for free you learns so many things you were probably wrong in the past.
I remember as a Cub Scout in the 60’s we toured the purine research farm. One of things that stuck in my mind is the showed us eggs with vibrant red, green and orange yolks. They said the achieved this by feeding fat soluble food dye. This has stuck with me to the point that I have had my own chickens and eggs. In fact I become tired of store bought eggs quickly
THANK YOU SO MUCH for that valuable information!
I’m now so mad because I just discovered this channel now and no one in my entire life has ever taught me these. This one video gives me more knowledge than 4 years in college. Thank you so much.
Makes sense. When I was training for my Physical test back in April, All I ate was 4 eggs and 5-7 cups of cruciferous veggies for 6 days. Fasted every Sunday. Was just doing OMAD. I was feeling fine the entire time and losing a lot of weight (mostly fat). I say that because I was also weight lifting pretty hard, and running. Throughout 6 weeks, I was thinking I am probably going to lose my muscles/strength. But no, I was still getting stronger.
It was slower than when I usually eat twice a day, but still stronger.
Way better than what I used to do. Drinking smoothies twice a day to lose weight. Was feeling all sorts of lethargic.
Also, for the past 4 years, I always start that routine 2 months in advance and usually lose 40lbs. I never stick to it after my test and the weight jumps bacc up. But this time this year, I've decided to keep eating once a day and lost an extra 30 lbs by the end of year. Since, I am a gamer, I found ways to walk slowly for hours on a treadmill while playing. Like my last stream.
How much you lose
What's cruciferous veggies? 🙄
I was completely broke and only ate can sardines and frozen greens for about 2 weeks while doing a labouring job. My energy levels where fine and I lost body fat. Outlook on food changed to instead of something to feel nice with but fuel.
@@honor9lite1337 broccoli 🥦, cauliflower, 🥬 and others from the same family.
For more energy, try taking AKG with L-Ornithine.
Where l live you only get eggs from hens in little cages. Lots of farmers with a lot of open spaces but they prefer this cruelty. When the hens come out off that cages they can't walk. What animals go through to feed us.
Watching this videos I’m realising how lucky we are in Italy. Food , even the cheapest, is always an high quality food. Often you speak about food that in Italy does not even exist.
Maybe this is why we are healthier than in other countries ❤️
Si mangia bene in Italia!
I lived in Italy and ate bread and pasta and cheese and sauces and tons of fruits and vegetables and meats and never ever got sick or had weight problems. In America they fortify the food here with synthetic vitamins like folic acid which is a big problem if you have the mthfr gene mutation, which I have. Food in America is poison. I miss the good quality food in Italy!
I’m jealous
French, Japan are healthiest because they eat lots of animal fat. They don't use vegetable oil like US. Unsaturated oil from plants-based are highly toxic it causes cancer, diabetes and all source of autoimmune.
The reason America’s food is poison is because they’re trying to bring down the best country in the world by making the people sick. However, we are still here and we will get rid of the poison very soon.😊

I once saw an interview with Dr. DeBakey, the famous heart surgeon, where he was asked why he ate 5 eggs every morning and he responded, "I like eggs." I'm sure he was aware of the improvements in his blood work. He put it simply that we don't know what causes atherosclerosis. A large portion of his heart patients didn't have high cholesterol.
Do you have the specific interview and timeframe, by any chance? :)
@@On-bekend I dont. It was years ago and I wasn't health conscious back then enough to care. Sure wish I was

3 years ago, when I started to become aware of the problems with starch/sugar, I learned from Dr. Sten that excess protein can trigger insuline to some degree. I also learned from him that eggs are a great source of micronutrients. So, my 1st meal (of 2) is mostly eggs and bacon. I use 2 whole eggs plus 2 separated yolks. I've been able to keep my weight at ~160 and the blood tests at my doctor's office have been good.
To clarify: I went from BMI 32 to 24 within 6 months and have stayed there for over 2 years.
Protein uses halve the amount of insulin compared with carbs/sugar.
Even with fat the pancreas makes insulin only in minimal amount.

I used to have about half a dozen chickens a few years ago, and they lived in a very calm area out on the countryside, so they spent literally all day outside every day, and then casually walked back to their hen house in the evening when they felt like it (which was basically early in the evening).
It was very wholesome to see them walk around everywhere like that.
How many chickens do you need in order to get the possibility to eat 5 eggs a day? Just wondering
@@rogerroca2803 5...generally hens lay 1 egg per day, they may skip a day as young pullets or older hens.
5 hens would give you 5 eggs a day on some days but only 3 or 4 on many days. 7 hens would give you 5 pretty much every day for their entire mature lifespan.
@@That_Cajun_Guy thats very nice to know. I didnt expect that many eggs per hen💯
Lucky man! were the eggs tasty?
November last year I had my blood tests done. And though my blood pressure was normal, and cholesterol a tiny bit too high, I was told that I was prediabetic.
I decided enough was enough. For nine months I've been working out daily, cut out practical all cereals, legumes and starchy vegetables (except oats, I love my oats) and eaten a diet containing basically of meat, vegetables and dairy, while counting my calorie intake.
Eggs has been my go-to protein. I've gone through 1,5-2 trays a week (15 per tray) as it was the cheapest. Both the eggs and meat comes from a local farm that raise their animals on pastures.
Two months ago I had my blood tested again: Blood pressure even lower, cholesterol within normal ranges, the amount of blood lipid more than halved and no longer prediabetic. I've also lost nearly 30kg, and is only 8kg from my target weight.
Once I reach that goal I'll stop CICO and do rolling fasts for real.
A lot of the info I collected before fixing my diet came from you, and made it much easier for me to process exactly what was going on when you eat different foods.
Great job!
Amazing
Soaking your oats overnight will reduce phylates, and make the oats more digestible, and increase absorption if nutrients.

A tip on a totally different topic. Lots of people use canned beans but they have trouble digesting them because of the lectins in the beans. Soaking them overnight is a great way to reduce lectins (these cause bloating and gas) but pressure cooking them after soaking also reduces a lot of the lectins. If you don't want to do that the only brand of canned beans that are presoaked and pressure cooked before canning are Eden beans.
Eden beans and grass fed weenies 😛
Funny that I read this immediately after finishing a can of beans! I gently re-fried them in a small amount of olive oil. I added garlic powder while cooking. After that, I put them in a bowl and topped them off with shredded cheese and sour cream. You should try it!
EGGS are bad for you!

So happy to hear your take on eggs. I remember the cholesterol scare that started in the late 70's but never really trusted it. As a young athlete I was very interested in the role of protein and each amino acid in athletic performance. One book on amino acids had a chapter entitled "The Much Maligned Egg" that basically made many of the same points you do. So, I have long included quality eggs in my diet and have never had problems as a result.
could i get the name of that book if that’s okay?

I eat 5 eggs a day now and feel great! I raise my own chickens and so took eggs for granted and didn't always eat them. Now, It's my first meal around noon. I swear I feel my body healing, more energy, better mood and less pain. I feel stronger.
Great video of explaining chicken egg quality. I used to buy the Happy Egg brand, but even the organic type is not pasture raised. I choose Vital Farms, which is pasture raised. That brand sources various farmers who allow their chickens to be free and roam and eat from the land.
They use soy protein as feed. I also use vital farms and was disappointed when I found this out
I also buy Vital Farm eggs, but was disappointed they feed the boy chicks into a grinder hopper bc they will not become egg producers….currently researching more humane certified …but still eating Vital Farms eggs bc they really are rich and so good
Mike and Gerry’s is another high quality egg producer
I have been doing this so far for 2.5 weeks (after first watching this segment), and my hair and skin look amazing. Eggs are definitely exceptionally nutricious!

When I grew up as a child we always had our own chickens. One rooster and about 10 chickens. They would roam around our property, which was a rural community, and we lived on 5 acres.
I remember we let them out all day to forage around the property and we had horses, a barn and vegetable garden.
Soon as sunset hit, the chickens would all head for the ‘hen house’ and we’d lock them up safely for the night.
Best eggs ever! I’ve always loved eggs and I have no problem with consuming several a day. These ‘real’ free-range chicken eggs are considered ‘gold’ by chefs! We would sell them to local chefs who would never bother with store-bought eggs.
@ScoutsHonor, with 10 hens you were supplying restaurants with eggs? Your family didn't get any?

About 30 years ago, I began reading and following the advice (for the most part) of the late Vince Gironda. Eggs as a source of high quality, bioavailable protein, was a big part of his advice.

If you want to learn EVERYTHING about a certain topic, you have two options: You can either spend hours, days, weeks, or even months researching the topic, OR watch ONE video from Dr. Sten Ekberg's channel. I'm so grateful to UA-cam and to you Dr. Ekberg for these invaluable videos! I save them and keep referring to them over and over every time I need info about a health related topic!
Agreed but I like to search for a video that contradicts this information its always good to see both spectrums but as always this feed is always provided with way more credible information explained fully and not just because I say so information.
Superb explanation about eggs. I have them almost every day (from regenerative farms, pasture raised), plus keto/carnivore diet. Very healthy at 67 years of age. Going skiing in Colorado mountains, where I live, blue runs at 12,000 ft.
A few years back they interviewed the oldest living woman at that time and asked her what she ate, she told them eggs, eggs and eggs, occasionally a piece of chicken, no veggies.
I am a retired RN. I bucked the system years ago after realizing with the knowledge that I had garnered (NOT from Western Medicine!) that eggs were the near-perfect food. I have a very large, green-grass pasture and typically keep approximately 25 hens (and one good rooster 🐓 who looks out for trouble). The hens absolutely prefer to free range for their food versus eating supplemental feed. For safety reasons I let them free range 2-3 hours in the morning and 2-3 hours in the mid-aftenoon (they need only 2 hours to fill their crops) then round them up and place them back into a large pen attached to the barn...this keeps them safe from predators... but each time they are pastured they are fully fed. My hens are so much more important to me than any beef cattle, pigs, lamb, or any other meat animals that I could raise, as the protein from the eggs is so perfect. They are utterly happy chickens, and believe me, that makes a difference in the end product. I apply absolutely no pesticides or toxins to my pasture. What I don't eat I give away to my friends or to the food bank in town. I am very lucky to be able to get all of my protein needs from my pasture via my hens.
It saddens me that my Grandmother who was a farmers wife lived in severe rural poverty was following her doctors direction about her arteriosclerosis and gave up eating eggs and butter. She had a hen house and the low cost protein would have substantially added to the health of her diet.

Every minute of this video answers at least one of the questions I and my family have had about our bodies' needs for the various and/or correct proteins. Thank you so much, Dr. Ekberg!
Your illustration with amino acids in green vs carbohydrate conversion in red was so effective and crystal clear. I'm saving this video...
I take in usually 3-4 raw eggs daily, blended into full fat coconut milk. I get my eggs from a local organic Amish family. They have 100 hens that are outside pecking around the yard any day that isn’t terrible weather. These are some of the best eggs I’ve ever had and I’ve grown up on home raised eggs! I get 10 doz per week lately and I water glass and dehydrate them for long term storage. Don’t want to ever run out!
I am about to start another egg fast. I did one a few years ago when I was very ill from acute tick diseases. It helped tremendously. I did 6 raw eggs daily in full fat coconut milk. I’ll do similar again.
Choline is necessary to heal the cell membrane & mitochondria which are damaged by toxic indoor mold (which destroyed my health before I got the tick bite that took me over the edge and nearly killed me).
My health crashed from indoor mold January 2013 then April 2016 I got the tick diseases that nearly killed me several times over the next several years.
