    Layne, can you cite a source that shows that beef raised insulin as much as white bread? Everything I find shows that beef raises serum glucose and insulin minimally compared to other foods. Also, if what you are saying about saturated fat -> higher LDL -> atherosclerosis, why haven’t any randomized controlled trials shown a difference in atherosclerosis with increases in saturated fat consumption?

  • @josephdavey2342

    Hey Layne, I asked a registered nurse about the Liraglutide drug (there must be a TON of different ways to pronounce it, I was worried it might have even been the wrong thing) and she said this (would like to know your thoughts, I agree with you and most importantly, the current data btw):
    "Liraglutide works because it also blocks the production of glycogon break down in the liver. It has the effect of causing delayed gastric emptying which often causes a reduction in intake for patients.
    It is likely the reason for increased weight loss in patients. I still see more than enough evidence in my everyday practice as well as plenty of studies and literature to believe insulin is the key factor in weight gain. Prescribe insulin, weight increases. It won't matter what diet exercise or support we give, with enough insulin over time, weight increases. Drugs that lower insulin result in weight loss regardless of their effect on blood glucose."
    I am willing to bet that "reduction in intake for patients." is the reason it works lmao...

    • @doctablademd
      @doctablademd 3 роки тому +2

      Yeah reduced gastric emptying and reduced appetite play a bigger role than the minor short term stimulation of endogenous insulin with that drug. Insulin is an anabolic compound and if someone is insulin resistant they are pretty much always hyperinsulinemic we just rarely test for it. The quickest way to adjust for that is to reduce their carb intake which wasn’t exactly coming from fruits so arguing against the insulin hypothesis is just laughable when as a doctor we can directly see what happens, when we put people on a reduce carb higher fat and protein diet their diabetes and cravings for sugar reduce, when we give them insulin and let them continue to eat whatever they want they just get sicker fatter and die faster.

  • @_nishantk_

    IMO, I agree with Dr. Robert Lustig on the effect of Fructose on body and it’s addictive nature, fructose in the fruits come with added fibre which makes you satiate and prevent overeating, however fructose in the processed food is devoid of any such complementary thing so we tend to eat more, but on the other hand I agree with Layne on calorie in and calorie out as that is basic thermodynamics, you need to be in calorie deficit to lose weight and by extension fat. One other thing Dr. Lustig is saying fructose, which does not mean all carbohydrates, for example wheat, rice, potatoes, sweet potatoes they are carbohydrates too but don’t have fructose. If we look at the east asian cuisine they have rice as staple but they are not overweight, mainly because they consume less calories as a result of fibres in their food and less addictive effect of fructose. We can also look at the example of Mexico, where the introduction of Coca Cola has made the population obese, high amount of sugars, more addictive, more consumption

    This isn't quite fair to Robert Lustig. He does go after fructose hard, but it's not right to say he lumps all carbs into the same category. In fact, one of his mainstay stories is about taking fructose out some young patients' diets, replacing them with starchy foods (just no fructose), keeping their weight the same and watching their numbers improve. He's pretty much anti-fructose to promote liver health and pro-fiber to promote gut health, meaning he's not against fruit (for an example). I find him to be a lot more nuanced than many of the folks you feature in this segment.

    The energy required to heat up water doesn't change based on the source of the energy ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
    Q for Llayne: When we say that protein has a higher TEF than carbohydrate, why do we say that both give us 4 Calories of energy? Why not just say that protein is 3.8 Calories and carbs are 4.2? Is it just convenience or is it such a negligible difference that we don't care?

    I think you misunderstood, and have thereby slightly misrepresented his argument, a calorie of complex carb contains complex glucose chains, simply carbs on the other hand, contain just a bonded glucose and fructose molecule, the fructose has to be converted to glucose in the liver, a process that isn’t required for a complex carb which is without fructose. That is one difference btw a calorie of complex carbs, and a calorie of simple carb/sugar. As you mentioned, the varying characteristics of the source of the calorie, varies the effect of the calorie, e.g satiety characteristics, hence the saying that calories differ. Please correct my opinion with facts, I am eager to learn. His argument is that, excessive consumption of simple carbs (not complex carbs), could increase chances of some cancers and dementia.

    @thegripguy9696 4 роки тому

    there is a slight variation is that different calorie types have different thermic effects, fat being 2%, carbs 10%, protein 25% and fiber 50%, which makes it so in a sense, 1g of fat has 8.8 calories, 1g of carb has 3.6 calories, 1g of protein has 3 calories and 1g of fiber has 2 calories. it is also shown that starch&Glucose have better metabolic effects than fructose or lactose. but beyond this there is no difference based on processed vs not. the only other thing worth noting is that most packaged foods state that they have 10-20% fewer calories than they really do since the USDA allows a 20% error which is one of the reasons some people make false conclutions(like thomas delauer) about calories in processed vs not foods.

    I don't see the connection to the plant-based world, the literature itself is aligned with (some) of their claims, very strongly on saturated fat, cholesterol and atherosclerosis progression. But, that's a huge one. And yes, the governments of the world / medical establishment don't set a baseline LDL at a level where Atherosclerosis ceases to progress, because they view it as unattainable for most. Which is sad, because most (baring unfortunate genetics) can indeed attain it.
    I for one do not want to die of cardiovascular disease when I'm older.
    One thing is true however, it's not about being plant-based or keto or carnivore, demonizing fats or carbs if we're talking exclusively about weight loss or weight gain. Equate net calories absorbed and weight loss / gain will be identical.

    It seems like these are two different levels of the same point... Layne is at the 40kft level and Dr Lustig is at the ground level. I think without a doubt the idea of "energy in" greater than the "energy out" theory holds true, but that's the totality of the issue. It's not examining the cause of why the energy in is so much higher than energy out. It doesn't examine sugar's effect on satiety, metabolism, adipose tissue regulation, etc. It would be similar to saying that the problem with abject poverty is that there is an money imbalance; if you want to get wealthy you must make sure that your "money in" is greater than your "money out". It's true, but an overly simplistic and non value added view that ultimately doesn't address any root causes of the poverty.

    Layne, I’m still confused why CICO applies when different sources of calories (protein, fat, carbs) have different effects on the body. So if I eat 100 calories of sugar it takes less energy for my body to metabolize than protein, so I’ll have more calories “left over” to store as fat, or burn or whatever. Is it just that the thermic effect is minimal and doesn’t affect weight loss significantly? Sorry if I’m oversimplifying

      Your question is a little unclear to me, but hope this helps:
      Do an internet search for "TDEE calculator". This will help give you an estimate as to how many calories you would need to maintain your current weight. Only through trial and error, can you determine a closer approximation(adjust calories as necessary).
      Note: 3500 calories=1lb of fat=500 calories/day. So, to lose 1lb/wk, one would need to be in a 500 calorie deficit/day. And vice versa, 500 calorie surplus/day to gain 1lb/wk. When losing or gaining weight, it will likely be more sustainable if you lose or gain at most 0.5lb-2lbs/week depending on current body fat level.

    uhh. layne. hes talking about sugar. Youre conflating it to just carbs in general.
    Lustig has stated he is not a low-carb guy. And even did an experiment at his University in which they fed people a processed carb diet with no sugar. Compared that to a diet that was high in sugar (calories equated). Metabolic markers improved just from having no sugar, once again, calories are equated.

      i have watched a lot of his stuff. He is actually a low carb guy. He went to a low carb conference recently.
      He has on occasion also conflated sugar with carbs although not on purpose.
      At this point, lustig is no longer neutral. He has built the last 10 years on a anti sugar and in some cases, anti carb tirade.
      He has done good work, but he is now getting a bit out there. He is trying to absolve saturated fat and blame fruit for some problems. To the point people are scared of fruit. In the minds of many, the logic has become, fruit has fructose, therefore fruit = coca cola.
      The consequence? Those who don't give two shits about health finally have an excuse to eat like crap.
      The other agenda that he has stated time and again is with refined carbohydrates.
      The consequence? People are now scared of rice, bread, pasta and potato. That has in part paved way to the intuitive eating movement, which is so terrible that most healthcare professional have a heart attack.
      Having said that, no healthcare professional in their right mind thinks sugar is in anyway good.
      However, as free living individuals, we should not be made to feel morally inferior for eating for reasons other than physiological ones. It is one thing to eat carbohydrate and be informed about it's effect. It's another to treat it like a toxic substance. Sure, cut down if you can. But avoiding it at all quantities at all costs is quite insane.
      He should have promoted the eating of whole food as his main message, instead of going down this stupid rabbit hole.
      Because you know what this ultimately leads to if we take his suggestions to their logical conclusion? We are going to basically dump 75% of our food supply.

    @12:14 I think you mean liraglutide - it DECREASES food intake (it alters hunger queues in the brain) and it also partially inhibits secretion of glucagon, decreasing hepatic glucose production - both which would favor a loss of weight. Sad to see a higher dose version marketed strictly as a weight loss drug (Saxenda) which has a retail price of over $1500 per prescription and safety issues such as thyroid & pancreatic cancer... taking it WITH a prescribed calorie restricted diet the average weight loss is 18 lbs/year vs 6 lbs on diet restriction only. Boggles the mind that anyone would pay that much & increase cancer risks just for the possibility of losing an additional 12 lbs in a year.

    • @ScienceUnbiased
      @ScienceUnbiased 4 роки тому

      @Christine Connell I think it has a much better safety profile, oddly can provide significantly more weight loss over the course of a year & is available as a generic for less than $15 per prescription. Suppresses appetite though effect usually wains over time & shouldn't be taken more than 90 consecutive days without a break. Personal observation, can cause slight jitters followed by a loss of energy as the the effect wears off later in the day and cotton mouth is pretty common. Drinking a gallon of water daily divided throughout the day (you don't want to drink much too close to bedtime) can help with the dry mouth. If you between meal snack, if you can think of a low carb whey protein shake a snack, drinking approx 25gms by content shake will not only help stave off hunger, it will help protect muscle so more of your losses are coming from fat. (there ARE good tasting whey proteins out there, so you can enjoy them as snacks) Good luck.

    Excellent video. Dr. lustig can come off as a conspiracy theorist but i don't find your criticism completely justified.
    1.Protein raises insulin but it also raises glucagon simultaneously (unlike refined carbohydrates) .
    2.The increase in GLP-1 does help improve biomarkers because it helps shove the excess serum nutrients into cells or other tissues (insulin isn't the problem, insulin resistance is).
    3. The carbohydrate insulin model of obesity isn't the ultimate explanation for diseases of civilization but one of the major contributing factors to modern chronic disease.
    4. When he says "a calorie isn't a calorie", he obviously knows calories are just a unit of heat but wants to address it to CICO zealots for oversimplification of the really complicated science of metabolism.
    Just my two cents.

    • @chadrandazzo2305
      @chadrandazzo2305 4 роки тому

      That can be the problem with discussing mechanisms - they don't always have this slippery slope effect like Lustig is trying to explain. The outcomes are what is more important. There are no tightly controlled studies in scientific literature that prove that when calories and protein are equated, insulin and carbs directly cause those things. If that was the case, all ultra marathon athletes who carb load up to 10-12g carbs p/kg of body weight 24hrs before a race would have type 2 diabetes (for me at 88kg, I would consume >900g carbs the day before a race, but I've never had diabetic blood markers or metabolic syndrome. It is the opposite as they aren't gaining weight, they are topping up their glycogen stores for glycolytic energy fuel. Just look at Lustig's other claims and all the anti sugar propaganda films he's appeared in. He tried to cite his own study with confidence done on children with metabolic syndrome after they consumed high sugar meals. It wasn't controlled and didn't even watch them consume meals - he gave it to them to take home! He's a total quack.
