I've been listening to Keto stuff on You Tube for over a year.Cortisol, carbs, insulin resistance, yada yada yada .... thought I understood it. I've NEVER heard the liver function explained like this 😨. It's the LIVER'S job to provide sugar to the body. It is not OUR job to provide the sugar. That blew me away - that any time I'm ingesting sugars I'm interfering with what my liver is doing naturally. What a fantastic video ✅✅✅
Dr. Ted Naiman ( spelling ) talks about simple calisthenic exercise to failure. The idea is to do anything, lift you feet off the floor while sitting, sit up without touching the back of the chair, etc. until you have to stop. You stop because your muscles have reached failure. They start drawing from your liver glucagon. Add in some arm exercises, leg exercise, squats, planks for abdominal exercise to draw out your muscle glucagon. Repeat several times. This takes about (15) minutes at home. You can do this while watching TV or listen to UA-cam. It is basically free. Start simple and do not make it complicated. Three push-ups becomes 4 and 4 becomes 10. You are not trying to count them, just do them until you are wanting to stop. It is so easy a caveman can do it...
It is not glucagon - it is glycogen that the liver and muscles store and supply if needed. Glycogen is converted to glucose that the brain needs. Glucagon is produced by the pancreas as is insulin. Glucagon triggers the release of glycogen to start the circle.
I lost 70 pounds over a 6 month period, and am in weight-maintenance mode now. Low-carb lifestyle, all the way!. It's amazing. Even though I've already achieved the results that I wanted, it is great to watch your videos, to see that I am still doing the right things, or realizing that I may need to modify something. Thanks for the videos!!!!!
Brilliant, I wish I had someone I could share this with who would listen. I know lots of people who would benefit from this information but they don't want to stop their carb addiction. Very sad.
It's so refreshing to hear a no-nonsense doc talk about the emotional addiction to carbs in such detail. People often think they're weak because they can't stay on a diet but the explanation of carb addiction hits it on the nail. The things we crave are the things keeping us fat. How exactly do we deal with that emotional attachment. I'm scanning through Dr.. C's videos to see if he talks about that specifically. I do know from experience that eating Keto does take away the cravings for periods of time and I understand why. Thank you Doc C for your enlightenment. :)
Whoa! I’ve never heard such a succinct account of how the liver functions. It was always a mystery to me and now I have a new perspective. So helpful, thanks! I love these short videos - easy to absorb the info and then think about while waiting for the next one. They are short enough that I can listen to them when I’m on the move being active. Thanks so much Dr Cywes and Happy New Decade! 😊👍
I am so glad I found you! Love the way you teach, love your humor. I am binge watching you. Been keto for 6 months and learning new things from you. Thank you for your channel!
Doctor Cywes, you are a fantastic teacher. You explain so well and you are very funny. I have listened to a few of your vlogs and am hopeful and excited about taking better care of myself. God bless you!!
This explains a lot so simply for me..I love the way you explain things for people..My understanding on the subject of health has come on leaps an bounds..I wish you lived in the UK.. Thanks for all the help and knowledge you are giving to me and people like me that strive to be healthy as we can be.
I’ve listened to other people on the liver came away uncertain, confused, first time totally aware thank you, God has given you a gift , well done Sir .... cheers from Pennsylvania 🇺🇸
Him and Ken Berry are by far my favourite doctors to watch. If I'm not getting the info from them it's not worth knowing, in my humble opinion. Thank you for your knowledge and also thanks for caring
(aka Pat Gallagher on FB) -- I don't exercise much, primarily because of disability. But I can definitely increase the frequency of my "Action Snacks"! Thanks, Dr. Cywes!
Thank you Dr. for what you do . This is great information...I've watched hundreds of videos on keto and low carb...and no one has ever explained it the way you do...so clear and concise...blessings to you!
First, I didn't know that about shark's fatty liver and how it assists buoyancy! Second, it is refreshing to hear Dr. Cywes' talk about how human livers use energy from a researcher's standpoint. Great stuff.
I love this doctor. He's easy to understand. I have done carnivore 4 times and in a couple of months, I drop weight and feel great. I just struggle with craving fruits and veges. I'm also glad we don't need to float much doc! He's hilarious. He's 100 percent right.
"If you don't eat carbohydrates for two to three days, you cure fatty liver." This gives me hope! I was just diagnosed with NAFLD, with elevated liver enzymes. I thought I was doomed to walk the same path as my father, who has hepatocellular carcinoma (which he blames on Agent Orange, but he's also a diabetic). I can't wait to see what another month or so of living a keto lifestyle does for my labs (and weight).
I love this video and you live close to where I grew up in Ft. Lauderdale. 95% Carnivore has been excellent for my type 2 diabetes. Please do relate your videos to people with type 2 diabetes. It’s very important for people to hear how they can eliminate long term dangers of T2D. Thank you again Dr. Cywes !!
I’m so happy to find an MD talking about the Ketogenic life style!! It seems like most folks talking about it are chiropractors. Not to put Chiropractors down although I’ve had a few bad experiences with them in my life. Most wanted to sell me a ton of their supplements. But back to the point. It’s hard to find and MD who gets it. Loving your videos!!
Its interesting that bari surgeons seem to already understand the fatty liver from carbs, hence the "liver shrinking diet" of 3-14 days before a bari surgery that most surgeons make wls patients do, but WHY don't they teach those patients to keep doing it after the surgery?????
Lisa Habedank my surgeon is recommending fruit every day for my preop diet. I follow low carb now for over two years. No fruit for me. Not with fatty liver disease.
Dr. Cyves, you correctly described how the liver's glycogen is stored for emergencies. During fight/flight the liver dumps glycogen to be converted to glucose for quick and dirty energy. What you stated after that needs rethinking IMO. Exercise (meaning elevated heart rate) does not have the same effect on the body as movement (normal heart rate). Exercise is interpreted by the body as fight/flight, cortisol rises, insulin rises, fat burning is turned off. During sustained exercise, with liver and muscle glycogen depleted, the only way to replenish glucose is muscle breakdown. The body is in the same panic mode as in starvation when all fat stores have been depleted. Endorphins are not a reward for exercise, but a consolation prize for what your body believes is your imminent demise in order to make your last moments less miserable. The liver does not dump glycogen in response to body movement--that would be silly in terms of survival. Muscle glycogen is used. Cortisol and insulin remain low, and fat burning continues. Muscles are not broken down for GNG. This is exactly why non-elevated heart movement is preferable to exercise, regardless of what "everybody knows." Yes, studies may show benefits from exercise, but how does one know that they are not compensatory for the stress? Long term, repeated sustained fight/flight stress imposed on the body will have negative consequences. Maybe one needs to be at least 60 to remember that the "workout" paradigm did not exist prior to perhaps 1980. No one ran or jogged prior to perhaps the mid-'70s. People did not have more physical jobs. There were hundreds of thousands of telephone operators, secretaries, clerks, and elevator operators, for example, whose jobs were sedentary, and have mostly been replaced by automation. And yet everyone back then was healthier--obesity and diabetes were far less common. Even if you suggest that people walked more--and even that is arguable--that does nothing to support exercise argument, only movement.
Very interesting.I am a senior 67 yrs and have heavy cortisol and stress and work out fairly(push it a little) heavy for my age every other day and do stairs and walk backyards outside and indoor x bike and outdoor bike as well.Could please advise me on what to do as far as excercise and at what intensity and how many times and how long.is walking the best? I agree with what you say and think my excercise is causing my already heavy cortisol to sky rocket as im get inflammation but not eating inflammatory foods.I dont use honey or stevia monk fruits.I do see my muscles kind of being eating so to speak.Could please give me some advise on foods excercises and body movements and how much walking and riding bike.i would appreciate it and be grateful.do you recommend lighter weights less times per week and less minutes working out? thanks
Thank You Doc❣️I learn all the time from your wonderful videos, particularly your delivery or presentation. Very clear and relatable. Thanks again. God bless you.😃
Great to hear advice with no bull ______straight down the middle from Dr Cywes,my kind of man,thanks,I was diagnosed with fatty liver ,did not get the advice you have given,Thank you,John from North Wales
On Keto/Carnivore for close to three years. My family doctor told me that health wise, I am in the top five percent of his patients. That means all from 20 to 100 years old. I am 73.
I am a carb addict. I have NAFLD. I am believing this info even though there is conflicting info out there. Some things say to eat less red meat and fat. Confusing!! I want to do the right things to help heal my liver. I know many who are way over weight and eat way worse than me and don’t have fatty liver. Why me?
Agree. But let‘s not ignore the necessity of resistance training for health. Training the main muscle groups to failure two to three times a week followed by good protein intake will change anyones life! Muscle mass is the best predictor for longevity. But yes, fixing the diet is the first step.
Moving toward all meat and a few greens off and on. I feel best that way. I don't like all the fake sugars in keto desserts not to mention I cabby do whole whipping cream and cream cheeses as I'm allergic to something in them. I get chills and poos. Ok I can make it 2 weeks without carbs...I've done it before....I'll do it again.....
WOW! Another handful of hope! I can cure my fatty liver so easily and so soon?! I really need to have some USG done, it'd be so wonderful to hear "Your liver is absolutely fine, it's not fatty any more" :) Cannot wait :) THANK YOU!!!
i've read and followed both pro sugar (ray peat mostly) and pro fat- metabolic improvement diet, i've removed my obesity (from 95kg-ish to 55kg-ish (yes its too drastic) in 1 year with keto diet and some routine run and morning walk, but lose most of my muscle strength and feel sluggish too in progress, then i added sugar and carb back and i got my muscle tone again. my conclusion for you that just about to try this, either to maintain or lose weight: keep in mind that ketogenic diet is good way to reset your body and to reduce fat storage in you body tissues, but once you get your ideal weight, add balanced amount of carb back slowly (not refined sugar, ok), to make your sluggish liver function back to normal, there is alot of good minerals and vitamin in fruits and starchy food, cut half of carb only if you are not an active person. otherwise if you followed keto diet for too long you will have to keep up with supplements for those missing good nutrition from those foods we are missing from keto diet (which is not great for you in long run). now im on my 70kg and feel much better, eat what ever i want and alwats maintain the weight and easily lose weight or add if i wanted to. remember no diet is good for you in long term, make sure to eat anything in modest and stay active. its our live style that makes us feel worst than ever. look how other primates in a jungle eat tons of sugar from fruits every day and they still looks fit and healthy. then see them in a zoo and they become obese like us, fruit sugars and carbs are not the enemy if you are active and metabolically fit. for more knowledge, find danny roddy or strong sister youtube channels, they are not MD or scientists, they are people like us that have been experimenting with different diet. and its been my good journey to connect the dots from them and people like this doctor. last thing, dont consume supplement unless you know your bloodwork test and have a good source of real supplements derived from real food around. cheer have a good life.
Mr. Dio Underrated comment The best thing for me is avoid added sugar, no snacking between meals, have balanced meals (some carbs are good for me - at least that’s the tune that I’m whistling for the moment), cook mostly at home and intermittent fasting.
Why is the liver sluggish if fatty liver was reversed by eating low sugar? The liver is what made all your ketones you used just fine being in ketosis. I said the same thing when I approached maintenance and all I hear is an excuse to eat more carbs again, like an alcoholic asking for just small amounts of alcohol a day. I'm calling you out and wish someone did for me. Please consider. 🙏
I have been doing keto for 1 week with intermittent fasting (14-20 hour fast) with a 4-6 hour eating window. I am a 5'4" female at about 110 pounds. I have already seen amazing results. But there are a few things in concerned about. I've begun having liver pain, just under my right lower rib. I am attempting to increase my potassium intake and salty lemon water intake to see if that helps. Is it normal to have liver and kidney pain when first starting the ketogenic diet? Thank you for your excellent educational video!
Thanks for all your great videos! The content is so helpful! Try to figure out how to look more directly at the camera so it doesn’t look like your reading thru the whole video. Makes it feel like a more personal connection with the viewer. Just a thought.
This is an unconscious behavior people have when they are thinking and trying to remember information. I am sure he is not even aware he is doing it. Th guy is full of great information, isn't he?
I’m a big fan and watch all your videos. I have a question. Do you ever recommend a patient go on a statin if they have a high lpla count ,a calcium score or any other indicators of a risk for a cardiac event ??
Serious question....I healed stage 4 Lymphoma from cachexia with carrot juicing (refused all traditional tx and drugs).....LATER i did keto and it reduced inflammation (arthritis type stuff) and i felt great...but i DID try it with the cancer and it didn't help, in fact it seemed to make me worse. Thoughts? My best take is keto is healthy BUT you are over looking the important fact that while not ideal FOODS, some carbs/veggies can definitely act as MEDICINE for healing.
do you mean like red or yellow organic potatoes.when i ate sweet potatoe and white potatoe the inflammation went right to my hands in 5 minutes? maybe bananas.i know they are high sugar carb, are they bad ?Can you help? What cabs/veggies do you have in mind for medicine for healing.please let me know.im at a tipping point here at 67.im on keto now for week.no sugars but have 40grams of organic wild per day for v-c or a granny smith apple.Any thoughts,im curious.my cortisol is screaming for vengence.
Hi Dr. Robert, I have a Hepatocellular Carcinoma and have undergone immunotherapy but the tumor did not shrink after 9 cycles evident by my latest CT scan which measures 12cm x 11cm x 11cm. my question is can I go on a Keto diet to shrink or eradicate the tumor. Your advice will be very helpful for my decision before I go through the Gastrointerologist suggestion to have an SIRT for my next procedure hoping to get it on a manageable size for resection. FYI all my blood works are normal as the Gastrointerologist told me that my liver is healthy. Thank you very Much
I've been listening to Keto stuff on You Tube for over a year.Cortisol, carbs, insulin resistance, yada yada yada .... thought I understood it.

Hands down the most practically educational channel on UA-cam, and I have a heavy biology background. Such good stuff.
Dr. Ted Naiman ( spelling ) talks about simple calisthenic exercise to failure. The idea is to do anything, lift you feet off the floor while sitting, sit up without touching the back of the chair, etc. until you have to stop. You stop because your muscles have reached failure.

It is not glucagon - it is glycogen that the liver and muscles store and supply if needed. Glycogen is converted to glucose that the brain needs. Glucagon is produced by the pancreas as is insulin. Glucagon triggers the release of glycogen to start the circle.
Is running healthier than calisthenic exercise?
Aseem Malhotra makes the same point in the Pioppi Diet. The people of Pioppi don't exercise, but they are always moving.
Link?

Love your videos so much. I especially appreciate your views on sugar being just as serious as “other” drug addictions.
Thank you so much for your work 🤗
I love your concept of “action snacks” to cleanse the liver.
Brilliant, I wish I had someone I could share this with who would listen.
I know lots of people who would benefit from this information but they don't want to stop their carb addiction.
Very sad.
Keep trying...some will hear you 🙏
Most people don't know they got an Addiction, and it's not that easy

I’d love my diabetic specialist to watch this, he’s always advising me to eat potatoes, pasta and rice!
I am so glad I found you! Love the way you teach, love your humor. I am binge watching you. Been keto for 6 months and learning new things from you. Thank you for your channel!
That explanation of how the liver works was wonderful!! Thank you for sharing ❤️

That's brilliant, ty!! 💗
Thank you Dr. for what you do . This is great information...I've watched hundreds of videos on keto and low carb...and no one has ever explained it the way you do...so clear and concise...blessings to you!
I wachted it 4 times thank uu so much this is why they say that the window of food in intermittent fasting should be short
Best NAFL talk I have ever heard! Simply Genius! I liked the easy to follow format. Thank you.
First, I didn't know that about shark's fatty liver and how it assists buoyancy! Second, it is refreshing to hear Dr. Cywes' talk about how human livers use energy from a researcher's standpoint. Great stuff.
Fat floats in water. Throw a greasy pan into hot water and watch the fat float to the top and leave a fatty scum ring around your sink.
Yes! Cole Robinson promotes standing as much as possible all day, thank you Doc
Love how you explain things. So helpful and easy to understand :)
Thank you for explaining little bits now going to work into the day with a smile 😊
I love this doctor. He's easy to understand. I have done carnivore 4 times and in a couple of months, I drop weight and feel great. I just struggle with craving fruits and veges. I'm also glad we don't need to float much doc! He's hilarious. He's 100 percent right.
You are a such an amazing doctor 🌺🌻 thank you so much ❤️
I am impressed about his knowledge and expertise about fatty liver. Hope if he makes a video about cellulites .
That was an awesome presentation! Thanks, Doc that makes absolutely perfect sense!
"If you don't eat carbohydrates for two to three days, you cure fatty liver."
This gives me hope! I was just diagnosed with NAFLD, with elevated liver enzymes.

Very informative doctor. Thank you so much. I have been able to make lots of changes in my lifestyle
Action snacks. What a cool idea! Thanks for the awesome tip!
Be more blunt bro, Love the attitude.
Especially love the use of succinct medical terminology like “bullshit.”
This was a very enlightening video! "Action snacks" - I'll never forget that!
I am listening while enjoying an “action snack!” Love your videos- Denise
I love this video and you live close to where I grew up in Ft. Lauderdale. 95% Carnivore has been excellent for my type 2 diabetes. Please do relate your videos to people with type 2 diabetes.

This is so excellent love this channel thanks doc!!!
Rob you are doing such an amazing job. And may I say how good you look on Keto?
You know how to break it down and explain it. Thank you.
Brilliant! 👏🏻👍🏻
Thank you so much for this video! So helpful.
In addition to frequent activity I’ve begun doing 5-7x/wk 10-20 mins of HIIT fasted to get glycogen out & increase my insulin sensitivity.
I love this guy
I appreciate you! Thank you💛💙
Wonderful video !! Find these videos super useful and it is explained so well
Good info
this guy is great!
Wow, 2-3 days! Why don't our doctors tell us this! Thank you, Dr. Cywes. Been doing Keto for life since New Years Day 2020
Guy is smart and know how to communicate, subbed!
Fantastic Rob. Thank you so much ❗️
Taken me four years on keto not to have a fatty liver. Lost 7 stones in five years but still obese....I wish this man was my doc.....
Thank you for sharing such great information!!
On Keto/Carnivore for close to three years. My family doctor told me that health wise, I am in the top five percent of his patients. That means all from 20 to 100 years old. I am 73.

This video released dopamine. for me. so much great information!
Moving toward all meat and a few greens off and on. I feel best that way. I don't like all the fake sugars in keto desserts not to mention I cabby do whole whipping cream and cream cheeses as I'm allergic to something in them. I get chills and poos. Ok I can make it 2 weeks without carbs...I've done it before....I'll do it again.....
WOW! Another handful of hope! I can cure my fatty liver so easily and so soon?! I really need to have some USG done, it'd be so wonderful to hear "Your liver is absolutely fine, it's not fatty any more" :) Cannot wait :) THANK YOU!!!
How'd it go?
Excellent info!!!
i've read and followed both pro sugar (ray peat mostly) and pro fat- metabolic improvement diet, i've removed my obesity (from 95kg-ish to 55kg-ish (yes its too drastic) in 1 year with keto diet and some routine run and morning walk, but lose most of my muscle strength and feel sluggish too in progress, then i added sugar and carb back and i got my muscle tone again.
my conclusion for you that just about to try this, either to maintain or lose weight: keep in mind that ketogenic diet is good way to reset your body and to reduce fat storage in you body tissues, but once you get your ideal weight, add balanced amount of carb back slowly (not refined sugar, ok), to make your sluggish liver function back to normal, there is alot of good minerals and vitamin in fruits and starchy food, cut half of carb only if you are not an active person.
otherwise if you followed keto diet for too long you will have to keep up with supplements for those missing good nutrition from those foods we are missing from keto diet (which is not great for you in long run).
now im on my 70kg and feel much better, eat what ever i want and alwats maintain the weight and easily lose weight or add if i wanted to.
remember no diet is good for you in long term, make sure to eat anything in modest and stay active. its our live style that makes us feel worst than ever. look how other primates in a jungle eat tons of sugar from fruits every day and they still looks fit and healthy. then see them in a zoo and they become obese like us, fruit sugars and carbs are not the enemy if you are active and metabolically fit.
for more knowledge, find danny roddy or strong sister youtube channels, they are not MD or scientists, they are people like us that have been experimenting with different diet. and its been my good journey to connect the dots from them and people like this doctor.
last thing, dont consume supplement unless you know your bloodwork test and have a good source of real supplements derived from real food around. cheer have a good life.

You’re so helpful 🙏🙏🙏
Great content.

This is so awesome, thank you Dr. Cywes. I learned some new information on how the liver works. Thank you thank you 😊.
Thank you for being such a good teacher.
Humans don't need to float very much 😅
Love it!
Beautifully explained. Can you please do a video about high bilirubin? Thanks
You are the best 😀!
Good stuff!
I have been doing keto for 1 week with intermittent fasting (14-20 hour fast) with a 4-6 hour eating window. I am a 5'4" female at about 110 pounds. I have already seen amazing results. But there are a few things in concerned about. I've begun having liver pain, just under my right lower rib. I am attempting to increase my potassium intake and salty lemon water intake to see if that helps. Is it normal to have liver and kidney pain when first starting the ketogenic diet? Thank you for your excellent educational video!
Fantastic!
Amen re microworkouts. Part of my paleo journey What would Grok do, the Mark Sisson primal archetype. 💪🙏
Still like my nightly 🍻.
Thanks for all your great videos! The content is so helpful! Try to figure out how to look more directly at the camera so it doesn’t look like your reading thru the whole video. Makes it feel like a more personal connection with the viewer. Just a thought.
This is an unconscious behavior people have when they are thinking and trying to remember information. I am sure he is not even aware he is doing it. Th guy is full of great information, isn't he?
I’m a big fan and watch all your videos. I have a question. Do you ever recommend a patient go on a statin if they have a high lpla count ,a calcium score or any other indicators of a risk for a cardiac event ??
Serious question....I healed stage 4 Lymphoma from cachexia with carrot juicing (refused all traditional tx and drugs).....LATER i did keto and it reduced inflammation (arthritis type stuff) and i felt great...but i DID try it with the cancer and it didn't help, in fact it seemed to make me worse. Thoughts? My best take is keto is healthy BUT you are over looking the important fact that while not ideal FOODS, some carbs/veggies can definitely act as MEDICINE for healing.
do you mean like red or yellow organic potatoes.when i ate sweet potatoe and white potatoe the inflammation went right to my hands in 5 minutes? maybe bananas.i know they are high sugar carb, are they bad ?Can you help? What cabs/veggies do you have in mind for medicine for healing.please let me know.im at a tipping point here at 67.im on keto now for week.no sugars but have 40grams of organic wild per day for v-c or a granny smith apple.Any thoughts,im curious.my cortisol is screaming for vengence.
Hi Dr. Robert,
I have a Hepatocellular Carcinoma and have undergone immunotherapy but the tumor did not shrink after 9 cycles evident by my latest CT scan which measures 12cm x 11cm x 11cm. my question is can I go on a Keto diet to shrink or eradicate the tumor. Your advice will be very helpful for my decision before I go through the Gastrointerologist suggestion to have an SIRT for my next procedure hoping to get it on a manageable size for resection. FYI all my blood works are normal as the Gastrointerologist told me that my liver is healthy.
Thank you very Much
TWO to three days!!!‼️‼️‼️ I have just been diagnosed with NAFL
one way to get zero carbohdrates is just don't eat for 2 to 3 days - drink a little salt water
I really think it’s a mistake to call glucose sugar. Sugar is understood to be half fructose, half glucose .
@DrCywesCarbAddictionDoc, you probably meant 2-3 months and not 2-3 days to fix the fatty liver?
