- The Big Fat Surprise: Why Butter, Meat and Cheese Belong in a Healthy Diet
Featuring Nina Teicholz, Author, The Big Fat Surprise: Why Butter, Meat and Cheese Belong in a Healthy Diet; director of the Nutrition Coalition; adjunct professor, New York University Wagner School of Public Policy; moderated by Terence Kealey, Visiting Senior Fellow, Cato Institute; author, Breakfast is a Dangerous Meal: Why You Should Ditch Your Morning Meal For Health and Wellbeing.
Nina Teicholz is the investigative journalist who, in her book The Big Fat Surprise: Why Butter, Meat and Cheese Belong in a Healthy Diet, overturned 40 years of official dietary advice and showed that meat, cheese, and butter are nutritious and need not be avoided.
At this event, Ms. Teicholz will tell of her discovery of the systematic distortion of dietary advice by expert scientists, government and big business to the detriment of the health of Americans. She will chronicle the succession of unfortunate discoveries she made, and she will describe how the Nutrition Coalition, a non-profit, bipartisan group which she founded and directs, works to educate policy makers about the need for reform of nutrition policy so that it is evidence-based.

I work in a large hospital in Houston, TX. If you want a honey bun, bag of chips, and 20 ounce, sugary drink at 2 a.m., you'll have no problem getting them. If you want real food, you had better bring it with you. After you get finished with the vending machine, turn around to see them touting their "heart research," advertised on the elevator door.
Exactly…. So frustrating and upsetting. This needs to change in the medical institutions.
No lie.
I worked as an engineer in the largest state university hospital in their newest, large facility in the Bay Area in California. The job was a very good one until I had to wire in a new ballast in a light fixture in the morgue one night shift. Spooky. I was by myself on that one. Glad I didn't wake anyone up. I high tailed outta there as soon I was done and tested the light, which was fixed.
A fellow engineer was trouble shooting a blood refrigerator in the test lab on day shift. There was one guy in the lab who'd expressed happiness that positive tests result for cancer were up because of the business it would bring to the hospital. Sick.
It's about the money.
I do remember getting a lollipop after my childhood dental visits. They thought it to be profitable to feed the sugar addiction we didn't even know we were all on in the '70s. Koolaid, Tang, Ovalteen, Cokes and other sugar.
I definitely agree on the vending machines too. Sickness=Profit.
@@LandSnipe415 In total agreement here especially with the OBVIOUS "Sickness=Profit".
ridiculous hypocrites
Omg I know! And the hospital acts like it was so progressive by not allowing smoking while offering disease promoting foods.
Does anybody else find it odd that if you eat like the food pyramid, you will look like it.
😆
Haa.. Good one! :)
And when you eat meat and fat you lose fat 😉😁
lmaooo you are what you eat, right?
The food pyramid is a diet you fatten hogs
In July of 2022 I prepared myself for giving up sugar for a month. I told myself that on August 1, 2022 I wasn't going to eat sugar for 31 days. At the end of July I found out I had gluten sensitivity by reading a book and researched about it. On August 1, 2022 I gave up both gluten and sugar and I felt amazing. After 31 days of being sugar free I was finally able to admit to myself that I have a sugar addiction and decided adding sugar back into my diet was not ideal for me. I soon figured out i'm lactose intolerant, sensitive to corn. allergic to soy (crazy cuz everything have soy in it) my stomach can't tolerate seed oils and artificial sugars. All these sensitivities that I have is crazy. I'm full black and I grew up eating junk food and buying the cheapest items in the stores. I use to shop at Walmart and buy great value food products now I can't even buy great value food products because it's all full of junk that my stomach can't digest properly or soy that im allergic to. I try to educate other blacks but all I say seems to fall on death ears. My highest weight was 280 pounds two years ago and now i'm in the 160s and I dont feel like im on a diet at all I just know what I can eat and what I need to stay away from. I really enjoy eating and don't feel the need to over eat and when i'm not hungry I dont eat. I dont eat any grains, dairy, soy, sugar and flours and I feel like a million bucks.

This is so awesome and I am truly happy for you. There is power in knowing what your body needs and feeling healthy. Unfortunately, we can't save people who aren't willing to listen. Blessings
That's dope. What do you eat? Sincerely asking to get some ideas.
@@dcla6003 check out dr Ken Berry...the proper human diet. Read the comments!
Go back to your natural climate, habitat, and diet. You'll do much better. macronutrients are only one simple part of an impossibly complex, interconnected system.
After 13 years of following a high starch plant-based diet both on the advice of my physician and thanks to movies like Forks Over Knives and Hungry for Change, I'm 50 lbs overweight. Since moving to a low carb, mostly meat and fat centric diet, I've already lost six inches off my waist in less than a month!!
I was also chubby on the starch soloution
Good goin vibekavale9056. that's got to be at least a drop of 2 sizes keep it up
Me too and my anxiety went through the roof
You're blaming the diet too much, exercise plays a huge part. From 1980 onwards everyone became more sedentary, hardly anyone has a physical job now.
@@destro1989 from what I have seen and read, exercise doesn't do much if anything for fat loss. Diet is the key to losing fat and getting healthy. Again, from what I have read and seen, the best exercise for fat loss is walking. I walk every day :)
One thing she didn’t talk about is our sugar intake is up 50% since the 70s. Why? Because they took all the fat out of the food. Which makes it taste bad. So they put in sugar because it taste better.
One thing u should do to become a better person is to stop boting

I am old enough to remember when I was little that not only hardly anybody was fat, or even plump, but when women wanted to lose a few pounds to fit their best frock better on Saturday, they stopped eating potatoes, bread, cakes and biscuits for a few days. They ate all the meat, eggs, cheese etc. These foods were considered nutritious. My mother called bread and potatoes ‘fillers’.
And she was and is right. You have a good MaMa🌹
Norms have def changed, when I went to Azores, Portugal , my grandmother made amazing "sopa pao'' or bread soup , very common there as a depression food , lots of different ways to stretch out foods, chewing more and hiding extras was an interesting American solution during the war
The fat you eat is the fat you wear. I suppose you're also old enough to remember we didn't eat as much processed food.
@@muscularcatholicism This presentation was made by a shill from the meat and dairy industry.
Potatoes alone have never made anyone fat.
There is a video of an obese person doing a potato only diet for a year. He lost ALL his surplus weight ("spud fit" channel).
It's no mistake that the food industry is poisoning us, it's all part of the depopulation programme put in place by the global elites many years ago.
You should avoid processed food and eat fresh organic food whenever you can.
Another thing I love about this woman... When she answers the question about her team and talks about its diversity, she's not talking about race, gender, sex orientation, etc... It's about their knowledge, skills, and background. The things that really define us, so refreshing. We need more people like her.
Of course, she's white. Most white people don't even think about race. It's just the Democrats trying to cause divisions between the races who say that white people are racist. America is the LEAST racist country in the world
She is very right

My grandad saved his children and their children ... and their children by his experience working in a margarine factory during WW2. It was such a disgusting dark-coloured and rank smelling slop that was bleached and coloured to look like butter. I grew up eating butter, unlike all my school friends in the 80s, and none of us believed the margarine ads on TV, because we knew Pa's story. I can't imagine the ailments my whole family would have today if we'd listened to the health advice of the government.
Interestingly, the people who married into the family, and refused to convert to butter, have had cancer and high cholesterol/blood pressure. I wonder ...
It took me a while to "convert" to butter after changing my food habits. It was so overwhelmingly rich I would nearly get sick.
Yeah I switched more recently. But luckily I didnt use a lot to begin with. But I did grow up with it. Now I don't eat margrin at all. And use coconut oil and butter and virgin olive oil as my fats. I been lucky and did a lot of research my whole life since I was a teen. Outside the recommendations. So i switched quickly away as soon as I saw the change. Whenever that was I don't remember.
I knew someone with heart issues, morbid obesity, and limb loosing diabetes who worked in the medical field but would often mock and argue against those who were healthy on whole milk and real butter saying they needed to go low fat for their health, this person ate as told; huge daily salads, small amounts of lean meats, lots of whole grains, low fats. The other people ate smaller salads, higher fat meats, a few whole grains, and high fats. I remember as a child looking at the (anecdotal) results of the two contrasting diets and taking note that maybe butter was better than low fat margarine and skim milk. No one I knew was that into sugar but the amounts of carbs this person still gets from whole grain bread and breakfast foods is still the same as several candy bars and that's what their doctor told this person to do. I wonder who that person would have been had they not believed the low fat and high carb lie. Or if their doctor believed them when they said they ate no sugar and were getting fat on salads and skim milk.
People with lower LDLs are more likely to get cancer. Eating low fat, low carb and vegetable oi will lower your LDLs. Saturated fats increases your LDLs. People with slightly higher LDLs also tend to live longer.
Notice also, that spreads, disguised as butter, are actually margarine i.e. butter substitutes made with vegetable oils.
Check those contents labels!
Alot of the stuff we were told was to help sell more corn and soybean products.
Very bad for our people.
Kellogg's got rich though.
Yes and animals
Sandra Westley yes in the UK the saying is you’ll get more nutrition by eating the cardboard box, than eating the cornflakes.
@@robwestley7370 there is nothing wrong with eating a bowl of cornflakes. the problem is changing to bacon and cheese from eating grapefruits and fresh orange juice for breakfast like they did in the 70s. there is almost 4 times as much cheese eaten today compared with 1970 aswell as 2.5 times increase in chicken both of which are fatty. most soy and corn is fed to animals rather that being intrisically unhealthy. blaming corn flakes is a ridiculous claim. the main problem with it is if you put cows milk on it.
The bad part is the oils which were waste products sold as healthy alternatives
@@rosehip5101 Except literally all your cornflakes (and other toxic waste) are GMO. :-)
They ate bacon, eggs, cheese and meat (including all sorts of organs) before the murderous food pyramid.

Wow! It's fascinating how so much public nutrition policy is based on nothing more than an unproven hypothesis, in fact a now disproven one! Thank you for doing this work, Nina.
So, you are letting Nina do your thinking for you?
@@larrymaloney877 can you let others think for themselves? You reply to many comments, arguing with people. Follow your own advice.
The nutritional information yu get on TV and radio is similar to what dumb Nina promotes. No one talks about the one healthy diet, Whole food, plant-based nutrition. The money is in selling meat & dairy products. But if you aren't smart enough to figure that out you can be easily led by the nose. Nina is here to lead...directly to fatty meat and fatty dairy consumption. Our economy is dependent upon you believing Nina's lies,
@@larrymaloney877 not true. The plant-based burgers and meat alternatives are where they want the money to go, which is why they are marketing them so hard to people.
You seem like a shill to me.
@@TM-rc3ck COMMERCIAL plant-based burgers are an attempt for the industry to retain their customers pigging out on meat. Homemade plant-based burgers are most excellent. A "shill?" Explain.
I dropped 70+lbs and reversed my fatty liver that I had for 10+ years in about a year doing Keto, plus I’m putting muscle back on that I lost on starvations diets from the past. I also have to thank Dr. Eric Berg and Dr. Darren Schmidt for helping me to turn my health around.
Pretty sure you will have gained more cholesterol - check this and decide if this is the right diet for you - Check. - Higher cholesterol is not a good indicator of long term health. This is the major failing of the High Fat/Low Carb diet - it always without exception, leads to High Cholesterol, which is a risk factor by association with Arteriosclerosis and Cardio Vascular Disease. While the HIgh Fat/Low Carb assists Diabetes related ailments, long term you risk other diseases as mentioned above.
On the other hand, a Whole Foods Plant Based Diet, low or zero in oils, nuts, fats, animal foods, and devoid or very low in all processed foods(including sugar and flour based foods), and high in Vegetables, Fruits and Whole Food based Carbs, improves all health conditions, reduces total body fat, and total weight, and improves endurance/mental alertness.
I have tried both Keto and Whole Foods Plant Based. The WFPB is the most sustainable on the long term.
It also begs the question, why should the government tell us what to eat, unless they are 100% responsible for the outcome in our health. Does the government tell us what beds or cars to buy, or who to marry? No. This is where it has gone wrong. The government should simply provide the information that allows each of us to decide for ourselves, and use our own common sense, and take responsibility for our own health. Placing this decision in the hands of government is where the problem comes from. I would not ask the government for advice on what job is good for me, or where I should live, or what to wear, so why should I look to the government to tell me what to eat. So the problem starts with a very wrong notion - governments should not be telling people what to eat. We the people should be given the info so we can make up our own minds.
@@okay1904 Your body regulates your cholesterol, your body will excrete anything over 3000mgs! High cholesterol is a scam and a $28 billion dollar a year fraud!!
@@Lenzer50 I am glad you see the folly in a Keto/High Fat-Low Carb Diet. Unavoidable High Cholesterol. Thankfully there is no disagreement about this outcome. One of the only people who eat like this traditionally, are the Eskimos, and there is a difference between surviving in spite of an anomaly, and thriving without an anomaly. If you check, the Eskimos had a high incidence of arteriosclerosis/ cardiovascular disease and had compromised longevity. We are all welcome to our choices. All I urge is we take these choices based on a comprehensive understanding of the risks, and the long term consequences.
The association between a HIgh Fat diet and High Cholesterol is so well correlated, and unavoidable, that one has to reconsider the long term implications of living the rest of one's life this way. Maybe a High Fat diet is great as an intervention to gain rapid weight loss, and then one may swich to a High Carb, High Fibre, Low Fat, predominantly Whole Foods Vegan diet, to get the lifelong benefit of food from pants. Our dentition show us we cannot be predominantly consumers of high fat diets, especially from animal sources, and our ancestors did not live that way, i.e our bodies did not evolve (or was created) to survive on a high fat diet.
Personally I do not advocate a total exclusion of food from animals, but a balance in the diet where most of the food sources is from unprocessed plants, with a small optional portion from animals, occasionally, maybe in 3 or 4 meals per week. It's an approach you may wish to consider adopting/adapting for yourself, going forward. I wish you well.
@@okay1904 Sugar damages the arteries first and then cholesterol try’s to repair the damage, this is something that the medical industry, big pharmaceutical don’t want people to know because high cholesterol pills are a $28 billion a year fraud!! But tell me what were we using those spears for to chop and toss Salads?!
@@Lenzer50 A whole foods plant based diet, with lots of fruit and vegetables, and low in all fats including "vegetable oils", which avoids processed foods, solves both of these challenges - excess sugar and cholesterol.
It has low glycemic carbs (Fruit, vegetables and whole grain or complex carbs like rice/brown rice/potatoes, beans, peas and other legumes) which are also lower in caloric density than meat/fish/oils and animal fats, so sugar levels do not become an issue, cos they release these carbs slowly into the blood, and because the total calorie intake from such foods is not more than teh body needs, insulin stores this in the various tissues, liver, muscles predominantly, and some as fat. There is no excess sugar remaining in the blood, to worry about - to cause any damage to arteries. Such a diet is also low in cholesterol., so there is very little of this around to make any arterial damage worsen, in the long term, if it were to occur.
The keto(high fat/low carb) appears to solve one aspect - sugar in the blood, but clearly does not deal with high cholesterol, which is increased. But in the long term, because it encourages the storage of fat, which goes directly into fat stores, the root cause of insulin resistance with is overloaded fat stores, which are resistsing the storage of more fat, is not solved. Like a disaster piling up for the future. You have low insulin in those who still can make insulin, cos there is low carb to trigger insulin generation in the pancreas, but the insulin resistance as described above, is made even worse, by high fat diets, with the added risk of lots of cholesterol available to accelerate any damage to arteries. Damage to arteries can be caused not only by sugar but by other things like high blood pressure, so with a High Fat diet, you now have lots of cholesterol available to make any damage to arteries, from non sugar causes, even worse. Might be ok as a short term solution for diabetic issues, but not great cos it worsens all Cardio or Vascular outcomes - e.g Coronary Artery Disease, Peripheral Artery Disease, Atherosclerosis, Strokes, etc.
Furthermore unless you are supplementing, a Keto diet omes with the risk that the body is not getting enough nutrients from fruits and vegetables and carbs, and food(including animal sources) is the best place where nutrients should come from, rather than from supplements.
If you listen carefully to those who propose a Keto/High Fat/Low Carb diet, you find that they really have no leg to stand on, none. No proofs, just opinions, and most of them have boxed themselves into a corner and do not have the humility to admit, they got it wrong. Keto/High Fat/Low Carb can only be a very short term solution option for certain challenges, not a sustainable way of life. The largest, strongest and longest lived land based mammals, and we are also mammals, eat vegetables and fruits and carbs, almost predominantly, with a few exceptions like bears who are omnivores, and some primates who also eat some other animals occasionally - that should be enough of a clue, if you think about it long enough. The strict carnivores like lions and tigers, and hyenas, do not live that long and are neither very big or strong. Food for thought.
The medical industry is in the business of treating dis ease, it's not in their interest to prevent it. When you realize this you'll understand that doctors are not experts on nutrition.
Neither is this woman. She is getting paid by the meat and dairy industry to keep you eating all the things that are indeed causing obesity and all the western diseases. Wake up.
Consumption of both has decreased significantly in the last 50 years, during which time the proportion of carbohydrates in the diet has increased markedly. Those people who eliminate carbs for 30 days straight find their stats no longer constitute diabetes. Heart disease started with Crisco and increased with all the other industrially processed refined grain, legume and seed oils.
goku she disclosed at the beginning that she receives no funding from any industry. So how do you figure that she is being paid by the meat and dairy industries?

I’ve read “The Big Fat Surprise”. It’s an excellent book, but was no surprise to me. I grew up in the 1960s and 70s. In those days, everyone knew that carbohydrates were fattening ( we didn’t talk about “ healthy” and “unhealthy” foods then). Then, in the 1980s, we were told that fatty foods (such as red meat, eggs, and butter) were “unhealthy” and that we should eat a lot of carbs, instead. The result- people got very fat. It should have been obvious to anyone who remembered the 60s and 70s, that the low-fat dietary advice was flawed, but unfortunately almost everyone was brainwashed by the propaganda.
I grew up in the 80s and 90s and clearly remember being told to not eat more than two eggs a few times a week but I ate them anyhow. However, I also ate tonnes of toast and bread...and I was a chubby kid. Some growth spurts in my teens evened things out for a bit but over time weight started to go on. I started working out and eating what I thought was healthy, and while i lost weight initially, it all came back despite continuing the workouts and eating habits. It really wasn't until I discovered intermittent fasting and low carb eating that I've been able to drop about 60lbs so far and still going. I've been doing this for about a year and only moderate walking and such so far. I'll start going to the gym again when i get down to 250lbs or so.
I've lost 10+ kilos in 2 years on keto and intermittent fasting. I entered the lifestyle slowly and never felt like it required a lot of discipline. Once I'm in, it feels really natural without struggle or cravings.
Any tips on how to get started on keto? The more simple the better. Thank you
@@golevi1 the simplest i can say is cut bread, pasta , rice , sugar and vegetable oils. Eat whatever else makes you happy until you are satiated. Perhaps choose somthing that you did not eat bcs you thought “it was bad for you”. For me for example that was the forever forbidden bacon and eggs! Butter!! Everywhere 😅 and whatever else you like. Sit to eat 1-2 times a day in other words intermitted fasting at the most 3 times if necessary at first but dont snack all day. The first year i would eat the occasional fruit(so technically i was not keto but low carb, but still lost alote of weight and felt muuuch better), now i just have some keto desserts on hand that i make and have a lottle somthing after my meal( i eat once a day usually). Eat whole foods you cook, dont buy the prepackaged keto junk. There are alote of ppl on youtube with great keto cooking chanels. Check out dr.Eckberg how to get started w keto or dr.berg if you want shorter videos. Good luck
@@golevi1 So I actually started with intermittent fasting. My compromise was that I could eat whatever I wanted within my 4 hour window, including ice cream. So every day from 10am to 2pm I enjoyed myself, then I was fasting the rest of the time. I lost about 4-8 kg in a year, it was super slow. Once I started keto six months ago combined with fasting, I immediately lost four kilos in a few months, and another four kilos in the second few months. I still mess up a lot, and the sugar temptations really get me. To be honest what keeps me on track is 1) the intermittent fasting habit I took 1 year to develop, and 2) having really enjoyable high fat meals, like coffee with extra cream, and stir fry veggies with eggs. I didn't really answer your question, but that's how my weight loss journey went.
@@golevi1
Look at Sten Ekbeg’s video’s.
Ive lost 10 kilos in 2 months
I cooked and fed 6 type 2 diabetics for several years based on ADA recommendations. That was 10 years ago when the last one died, early I might add. I became a type 2, 7 months ago. The dietician (at the VA hospital I might add), gave me the ADA guidelines. I looked at that and then at her. "F*ck that" I said, threw her dietary guidelines in her waste basket and walked out.
Went out, cut the carbs to 20 - 40 a day. Upped my protein. Two weeks later my glucose crashed, called my doctor. He took me off two of the three medications I was on. Went in a month later, doctor says you are the BEST diabetic ever. Nobody pays attention to the dietician. I didn't have the heart to tell him what I'd done. I will on my next visit. Three months later my A1c went from 12.6% to 5.8% in three months, my cholesterol went down, my triglycerides normalized. I'm still on one drug, but it looks like I'll be off it soon. I lost 40 lbs, I'm sedentary. My exercise is going grocery shopping once every 2 weeks, with this pandemic (I'd be more active if I could hit the road). I'm a 64 year old woman, 5 foot tall total. I was 178 lbs when I started. I'm at 136 lbs now. Nine pounds to go and I'll start trying to maintain in the 115 - 125 range.
The ADA needs to be schooled, by diabetics. BTW, Weight Watchers are going in the hole.
Brilliant. Congratulations!
Saturated fat is animals, fat deposits clog your arteries !! We’ve got flat teeth 🦷, Little flat teeth 😬, moving around -_ 😬. Long long stomachs.
Not supposed to eat animals. No fibre if you eat animals. Five days or more sitting inside your stomach puuuuu-trifying 🧟♂️🦠🍖🔴.... meat eaters teeth, go to the dentist 6 months, plaque forms, eating animals. Vegan for 7 years, no plaque anywhere. I don’t need to go to the dentist. It’s incredible ✅❤️💪😬🦷⭕️. Fibre is plants and fruit and nuts and berries and tubers. Next day poop without any stink. My boots and socks and armpits are wonderful. I don’t need deodorant because, plant-based. The key. try for a month or so. and vegans have 4% cancer and that’s it...
@@VeganV5912 Sorry to pop your bubble. I am doing extremely fine without fiber. If I eat a bowl of arugula now (and I love arugula) then the problems start. Indigestion, bloating, the works. The lower the fiber the better I am. (Although I have to say that this depends on your ancestry. Other people might do better with more fiber.)
Plus: Humans have pretty short intestines. At least compared to plant eating animals. As our brain evolved it needed more energy so our guts shortened. It took quite a chunk out of our energy to digest fibrous foods. (And food doesn’t stay longer in your intestines based on its origins.)
It’s not the animal fat we should be afraid of but the highly processed plant based fats. They are responsible for the bad cholesterol not the animal fats.
Btw: My teeth are just fine. No caries in years. And Plaque comes mostly from starches/carbs, not fats or proteins.

I was impressed at first, partly because she had been at the NYT and because she speaks well. But these days you have to check everything.

It is excellent. The 7 countries study and the confirmatory project in Finland - which took the country from worst for cardiovascular disease and death to one of the best - is very robust evidence for the damage caused by high levels of animal fats and the benefits of the Mediterranean diet. Unsurprisingly, she is funded by big meat and dairy sponsors and people like the Koch brothers. This is another oil industry, cigarette company type con.
I used to be really fat, and I was on the verge of developing some serious health conditions. I remember not being able to tie my shoelaces and my sleep suffered as well. My life changed when I finally set my mind to the thinking that anything is possible if you decide to do it. I took a meal plan to start with. I created it online, from Next Level Diet, which was super helpful to me. I didn't have to worry about calories, macros, nutrients and all that stuff. I just focused on walking long distances and exercising after I got on a level where I could do some simple workouts. I hope my story will inspire you to do the same. To change your body you must first change your mind!!
What is the Next Level diet? Low Carb?
"It is certainly preferable to raise vegetables, and I think, therefore, that vegetarianism is a commendable departure from the established barbarous habit. That we can subsist on plant food and perform our work even to advantage is not a theory, but a well-demonstrated fact. Many races living almost exclusively on vegetables are of superior physique and strength. There is no doubt that some plant food, such as oatmeal, is more economical than meat, and superior to it in regard to both mechanical and mental performance. In view of these facts every effort should be made to stop the wanton and cruel slaughter of animals, which must be destructive to our morals." Nikola Tesla ✅❤️🌎

When I was a kid everyone cooked with lard, and there were only 2 fat boys in my town, and they were both the kids of two different bakers. So, there you have it; they ate bread every day (carbs). In this town, avocados are everywhere and we ate them daily.
Yeah, I can’t stand that so many stores in the west do not have lard..
That’s very interesting. I grew up in a country cowboy town. Lotsa cows and wild game. Meals were planned around meat… all three meals! We didn’t have fat kids or fat families in our small town. Meat was king!
We all drank full fat milk every day and we had ZERO fat people anywhere

The tobacco industry took their marketing cues from the sugar cane growers. In the 1950's, they determined that if people started cutting fat out of their diets they would eat more sugar. Soon afterwards, sugar beet growers joined in, and by the 1970's, the processed food industry developed an industrial process to make Fructose from corn syrup. A lot more financial concerns began lobbying the government to help them sell their products. The government exists to promote commerce, not to look after your health.
Extend that to the promotion of unhealthy meat & dairy and processed carbs & bottled oils. Nina struggles with reality. As long as she can sell her book and support her website she has no problem misleading the rest of us.
My primary doctor is awesome. I had high cholesterol and she told me to keep away from carbs. I took her advice and my weight went from 160 to 139 in 3 1/2 months. I wasn't even on a diet just no carbs and sugar. I feel much better. Soooooo not all doctors are ignorant when it comes to diet. I love my doctor!
Good for you on that progress. In HK there is a supplement that is given as a test to change things but it is difficult to find in the US bec. they have a more expensive pharma option. Healthy diet and mental/physical assessment can change a lot of health problems. If a person has stress or a chemical imbalance it won't matter what they eat as their body chemistry will be off.
That doesn’t mean you’re healthy.
@@luchiayoung It’s funny, when I went keto, lost a bunch of weight, got all of my blood work looking perfect, got off most medications, and felt so much better…this was the one thing people kept saying to me. “Doesn’t mean you’re healthy!” It literally does, though. What part of me isn’t healthy, now? What tests could be done to show I’m not healthy?? My cardiologist, rheumatologist, nephrologist, neurologist, nutritionist, and pcp are thrilled because I accomplished their goal of getting me healthy, not perpetually taking medications to alleviate symptoms. They wanted me to go on this diet!! Most of my specialists don’t even need to see me anymore. I can’t convince a lot of my family who are 100lbs overweight and on lots of medications that I’m healthier than they are. They tell me I should listen to the professionals…just not the professionals who actually helped me!
@@KiKi-tf8rv - It seems crazy to me that most of the human species followed a certain way of eating for practically all of its evolution, then for a several measly decades it ate pretty much the opposite. During that time diabetes, heart disease, obesity etc, all skyrocketed. The few who managed to find their way back to a more natural way of eating - and reaped the many benefits from it - were then considered radical or extremist. It makes no sense to me. Congratulations for all of the improvements in your health!! :)
@@deborahblackvideoediting8697 Thank you so much!!💞 Yes, and I’m embarrassed to say I used to be one of those people who laughed at how my Great Grandparents ate, how they weren’t overweight, and lived to almost 100…I laughed because I thought they were somehow lucky or cheated death because of their terrible eating habits. Until I finally snapped out of it and realized they weren’t lucky, they were healthy because what they were doing was healthy!🤦♀️
I can confirm that many "scientists" are no longer required to "distrust" themselves, but instead to double down on the position that pays the best. Real science is hard and must be held to the highest levels of scrutiny. If a study cannot be replicated then it is as good as trash.
Those "Scientists" often become Republican Congressmen.

That is the very definition of "Science". If anything cannot be repeated or replicated it is unscientific.
@@paulhelman2376 Those are Democrats. They say the world will be on an irreversible global warming spiral in 10 years. The math says the man-made contribution to global warming is .006, meaning totally masked by other factors. We just got off a mini ice ages in the late 1800s, and the Middle Ages were far, far warmer than today, and that's according to ice samples. In the 1970s the Democrat "scientists" were talking about another ice age. Check Life Magazine. Democrats promote poverty to increase dependency and votes.
My husband's grandmother (Paternal) lived until 99 years 8 months of age with a cholesterol level between 300-400 (this is her "bad" cholesterol). They should do a latent study on the older population as we know what they were NOT eating. Just a thought...
I'm so glad you did this. Personally you are my hero! I had lots of my family members died from doctors recommending the wrong foods. I began searching because now I'm insulin resistant. Keep up the good work 👏
Ask any doctor how much time was spent in medical school studying nutrition, and that will tell you everything you need to know about the true goals of the health care industry. You want to live a long and healthy life, stay the hell away from the health care, processed food, and pharmaceutical industries.

I looked up Rockefeller who was a nazi. I read that he was all about competition, so he tried to get rid of all the holistic people. Then he tried to make huge sums of money from chemo, pills and surgeries which is big pharma. I am convinced that these are just bandaids able to cause someone more sickness, so I think that Rockefeller was a part of the depopulation agenda which is still ongoing. Imagine using the health system to hurt and kill people and covering it up with huge lies. This is the work of psychopaths/nazis which the documentary called "The Corporation" says corporations are. The U.S. is a corporation. Corporations agreed with Hitler and funded his war because Hitler agreed with THEIR eugenics ideas. It is all about eugenics, believing that some people are better than others.
Rockefeller built the school and hospital systems from his beliefs, which is to get rich. So that is what we have. It is a nazi world where corporations stick up for each other and they bring the rest of us down. We have been right in the middle of a nazi world a long, long time.

I switched to animal fats and a low carb high fat diet several years ago. A recent heart cath showed no blockages at all. I am 67 years old and that is exceedingly rare. Carbs give me hideous amounts of gas, bloating, and cause rapid weight gain. I eat eggs, bacon, ham and sausage nearly every day but no toast and a rare biscuit on special occasions. When I was eating a high carb diet and exercising heavily I gained weight and it wasn't muscle. When the carbs went away so did my weight.
Can I please ask, what veggies if any do you eat?

A "heart cath" does not show the health of miles of arteries. The heart only blocks AFTER a small chunk of plaque breaks from an artery. Your doctor is leading you by a nose ring. The best way to detect heart plaque is from the eventual heart attack caused by your meat diet. Keep us informed.

I have been on keto diet since October 2022 and now March 2023, I have lost 17.5 lbs and my BMI is mid 23. My last blood test puts me on the threshold at 5.6 mmoL. I have switched off vegetable oil and to Tallow / Lard / Ghee / Butter fat, less than 20g of carbs and very satiated with red meat, and stay away from grains, and all matter of sugar. I had to increase Magnesium, Potassium, Sodium to balance my electrolytes as my body has been in ketosis. Bottom line, I am healthier and looking forward to the next blood test. Great presentation and huge affirmation on my course of action.

Before you had Heart failure, you were eating a high-fat diet.
She’s right about the 70’s. I was a teenager in the seventies. Everyone was slim, I absolutely don’t remember any fat kids in high school. Fast food wasn’t a thing for me, I couldn’t afford it. I spent what ever money I had on my interest, which was clothes. Food was eaten at home.
Me too. I was thinking the same re the 70’s. All of my teen buddies were slim.
It's funny how Nina skipped over the part about Americans eating 50% of their meals from fast food joints. Unheard of in the 70s. Nina thinks for folks who lack critical thinking skills.
Have always thought the same. During the disco era, mid to late 70s, when going out it was rare to see an overweight male or female. Today go to a packed bar and over half will be chubby. 🤷

My recent experience has been eye opening. I gradually eased into a keto way of eating over 3 - 4 years, Feeling healthier and losing weight was a bonus. I've recently spent a lot of time away from home after the death of my mother, visiting family and eating the high carb meals served in their homes, with the ensuing digestive and gut distress. On returning home two weeks ago I returned to my normal low carb way of eating. It has taken that whole two weeks to heal my gut and stop feeling like my body is inflamed. From now on I will be fasting when away from home!

I used to 100% believe in Climate Change (errr...Global Warming or The Coming Ice Age--which is what was predicted to happen when I was in my 30s), but after reading some of the "Climategate" emails written around 10 years ago that were back and forth conversations between some well-known climate scientists in which they lamented about having to "hide the decline" plus observing the lifestyles of the rich and famous who yammer on about it but who are complete hypocrites when it comes to their actions (like Obama buying a luxury $17M beachside mansion, for example) I've stopped believing in it. It's just a secular religion.
Al Gore is the Ansel Keys of the 21st Century.
50 years ago I was in medical school in France. My parents sent me all of the American textbooks and I had the French ones. Here's what Guyton said. Carbohydrates protect fat, fat protects protein. That means you can't burn fat until you deplete your carbohydrate reserves. If you don't eat carbs for 48 hours you will deplete them and you can start burning fat. It also talked about how eating too many carbs would cause the beta cells in the pancreas to hypertrophy causing hypoglycemia and would eventually burst causing diabetes. I went on a zero carb diet for one year and lost 40 pounds. So I've known about it longer than most doctors have been alive.

And don't eat too much protein, no matter what protein you choose to eat.
Great video - personally I stopped grains already for over 10 years - my main diet is eggs/cheese/yogurt/steak and some fruit. And for 10 years I have felt great, never been sick since then!!! Agree with the point, that you can get easily full from eating steak - I can eat 400 grams in one sitting, then I am full!! no need for additional food!!
I have been on a semi carnivore diet for the last 8 months. I eat fatty meat/eggs mainly, but I snack on avocados, greenish bananas, and sunflower seeds. Occasionally I cheat and don't sweat it. I am running around at my old high school weight which is awesome but not why I changed my eating habits. I am on zero medications at almost 60 while my wife is a bigtime carb and sugar eater who has progressing diabetes and high blood pressure. Her doctor eats the same way, is also obese and suffers diabetes, and takes similar diabetes medicine so that the food they are eating DOESNT KILL THEM! All of these sick people equal BIG BUCKS to the health industry, which is all that's booming right now, and it is booming.
I think eating ripe bananas is much healthier than green/unripe, unless your talking about plantains which I have no experience with.

Diagnosed with T2D in Sep 2020, along with super high BP and weight of 264 Lbs, the ER were rushing to get me in the Cat Scan machine because I was dangerously close to either going into a diabetic coma or having seizures. A month later, at my Dr.'s office, my A1C was 10.8, my cholesterol very high and my liver enzymes were bringing me close to possibly developing non-alcoholic fatty liver disease... I started researching how I could make changes and that's when I found the Keto Diet, as well as supplements to help both my liver and cholesterol levels. By Nov, my A1C was down to 8.8, Jan it was down to 5.9, both in Mar & May it was 5.4 and I will have it checked again in a few weeks, but I have already had it consistently controlled as of Mar. I have since added intermittent fasting and worked my way up to fasting between 18-20 hours daily with no problems with this whatsoever. I skip breakfast altogether and eat a fairly large brunch with a moderate portioned dinner, usually with both meals being consumed within a 4 hour window. I also drink only when I'm thirsty to prevent sodium loss and use plenty of Redmond ancient sea salt. As a result of my dedication, my liver enzymes and blood pressure stabilized, with much improvement in my cholesterol. My doc lowered my T2D meds and took me off of HZTZ completely. Now, just 11 months after that dreadful day at the ER, I weigh 172 lbs! Though I initially went on Keto to improve my physical health, it's benefit was also this whopping 92 lbs. lost in just 11 months! I never got the so-called "Keto Flu," so I don't even know what that is. I also have zero problems staying on very low carbs, eating between 14-23 net carbs per day. I also never saw a "Keto plateau" that lasted more than 2 weeks or so, which prompted me to change something small (i.e. switching the times I ate or temporarily flipping my portions for a day or two until, voilà, I was back to losing weight again and could easily revert back to my previous manner of eating). It seems that, sometimes, I just have to do something small to kick my body back into weight loss mode. Now my Dr. tells me that she wishes I could coach her other diabetic patients, but I have learned by TRYING NEEDLESSLY to help my younger sister, who has had out of control diabetes for well over 10 years, that you CAN NOT coach anyone into being motivated enough to truly control themselves, despite the fact that she can clearly see how much it has benefitted me. Sadly, no one can teach someone else self-discipline, especially after they have been afflicted for so long that they no longer have any hope left to give. Doctors, who are quick to please big pharma by writing constant prescriptions are failing to actually help their patients and bringing them to such a state of despair that they lose their will to try anything different. Sadly, this means that I will likely live long enough to see my little sister's last days. They are about to put her on insulin, which will be her death sentence... and there's nothing I can do to convince her that she does not need insulin since insulin resistance is the problem for type-2 diabetics to begin with. She is already churning out so much insulin that her body is, literally, ignoring it! How is giving her more going to help her in the long run? 😥
Wed, 17 Nov UPDATE: My A1C was, once again, 5.4 on my Oct Dr. visit. She took me off all diabetes & blood pressure meds and I am maintaining my glucose & bp just fine with Keto and IF only. I also lost 10 more pounds, for a grand total of 102 pounds lost in 14 months, though my weight loss has slowed. However, I am now within 27 pounds of my goal weight, so why stop? If it ain't broke, don't fix it! 😉☺😁
Wow congrats! Those are amazing results!! So many people have results like yours, yet all these people arguing that this is "unsafe" and bad for you and that the stories about keto (done right) aren't real. Like, people need to open their eyes and realize there are different ways to be healthy, and like it or not this is one of them!
Keep up the great work and sorry about your sister. You are right, they have to want it. Too bad she isn't even willing to try it just for even 2 or 3 weeks? If she does it right even in that short time she'd at least be able to see it starting to work.
WOW Congrats & I hope you are sticking to it. I'm fresh out hospital because of High BP & I mean really high. 290/270 not a typo & now they have me on 3 meds & a cardiologist appointment in January. Crazy thing is I lost 50 lbs doing carnivore & cheating maybe once a week or so. I then fell off the wagon & went back to my old ways & put back on almost 20 lbs & BAM in the hospital with a neck ache. Ended up be high BP & here I am. I wasn't so sure I was doing so good for my body before hints why I kinda let up. I guess carbs are the true enemy I read more & more & I know I'm borderline diabetic too according to my eye doctor yesterday. Refused eye glasses til I have a fast growing cataract removed. Said this type is diabetic related so obviously a problem there too. Good luck on staying on track & thanks for your story. Helps others not fall off wagon hearing success stories.
Brilliant! Congratulations. I hope your sister sees the light. I have been eating the LCHF way for over 20 years, now. I amn75, I have a leaky mitral valve, which is genetic. I am very healthy.
As the others have said
Wow & congrats
I’m hoping 2022 will bring me the same results
My spouse was diagnosed with high blood pressure, diabetes and I had high blood pressure. So I read the book THe Case Against Sugar by Gary Taubes. Then started reading ingredient labels. Found out there is sugar added to things like Ketchup, Mayo, Mustard et al. So I would buy the ones without added sugar. I can tell you I'm 5'8" and I was 240lbs. By dropping the sugar I went lost and kept off nearly 100 pounds.
I forgot to mention my brother was 360 lbs at 5'11 at 40 years of age with insulin dependant diabetes. Within 3 years on no carb diet he is 170 lbs. He eats red meat and bacon everyday. He takes one metformin daily. He was insulin dependant for 20 years.
That is amazing. Thank you for sharing his story.
He should dump metformin too. From the personal experience of someone who has had two heart attacks, diabetes etc.
Your brother lost weight because he reduced his food portions. There are carbs in everything. Macrocarbs are chips and crap food.
@@c_farther5208 this is not true. Counting quantity or calories is like just counting the number of players in two different sports team and then say since the numbers are the same, the quality of the team is the same. But if we think of the ability of each player as different from the next, we know the fallacy of this line of thought. Similarly, thinking of calories for fats proteins and carbs as the same ignores the fact that functions differently, metabolises differently and so on. So it is about knowing which works best in your body just as it is not just adding or subtracting numbers from a sports team. Carbs exist in most food. But it is not about zero carbs. It is about low carbs.
WOW!
That was amazing. Unbelievable what the public has been deceived into believing.

Waiting for my copy of Nina's book within the next couple days. I'm thankful for someone outside of the food business to do investigative journalism on the topic. Nina is brilliant.
They have already attacked her 'The Big Fat Lie' book. I've seen many negative reviews on it but that is to be expected. I for one enjoyed it thoroughly and it jives with science and anecdotal evidence that so many other doctors and nutritionists have found.
Nina is SUPER ! Her efforts are much appreciated!
How many of our loved ones suffered and died early due to this recommended food pyramid all about greed and power!
Nina is a great journalist.
Nobody but you is responsible for what goes down your piehole.. It is not govts function to take care of you. Fact is, they couldnt force you to be healthy even if they KNEW how to be healthy
Not a doctor...........Just a lot smarter then one! Great Lecture. I am on Keto and I have never been healthier and happier.
I used to eat at a Macrobiotic Restaurant in NYC , for years since my boyfriend thought this was the perfect diet . I noticed the staff looked very weak and ill , and their skin appeared almost transparent . No meat or fish , no cheese , no eggs ..that can't be good for you. Humans need those proteins and fats to replace cells and build muscle .
They killed my father and gave my mother cancer. Still nobody has explained any of this to people that grew up with the "fat food bad" mind set. It's evil, political, money grubbing people that run pharma and all the other large corps. Funny the work "corps" is short for corporations and also a dead body! Thank you Nina Teicholz. I love and respect you. God bless you.

This has been a very informative discussion. I have been on the Carnivore Diet for the past 4 months. Prior to this I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, hypertension plus other inflamation causing diseases/ailments. I have lost 35lbs., my blood sugar is normal and normal bp plus no more aches in my body. I am not going back to the standard diet.

@Random UA-cam Idiot I envy you. I live in rural New York State and all we get is imported from South American farms. There is no oil or fat oozing out as it cooks :- (
I've been on a keto/carnivore diet for a year now huge improvment in all my health issues I was mostly plant based before and it gave me nothing but probleams I was never overweight but probleams like hashimotos thyroiditis chronically inflamed lymphnodes chronic tonsilitis and. Hemachromatosis funny thing is I did the opposite of what Drs told me to do for hemachromatosis (high iron) and started eat alot of red meat now thats mostly all I eat... And my iron is now normal for the first time in 6 years so I lowered my iron by taking in alot more iron but.... Iron that's actually bio available...

Iconic lecture by the legendary Nina "Ninja" Teicholz
As a person from the mediterranean , I want tell you that the great majority of our calories come from olive oil. Salads, oil, meat/fish.
I have been on the Carnivore diet for two weeks and have lost 6.5 lbs and feel great. My hip pain in gone in one week. Wake up people! Since 1980 I have gained no matter what I did on the standard American diet. Now I’m losing weight for the first time in 25 years.
whacko
"Maybe just one of you watching online" lol. with over a quarter million views on this channel alone! Good for you!
As an NP that worked in Endocrinology for years, I was so confused by the ADA recommendation for carbs and DMT2 patients. Instead of recommending low carb and Keto lifestyle, they recommend too many carbs and insulin. This contributed to more weight gain and higher glucose and worsening disease processes. I no longer adhere to any National organization or governmental recommendations that simply go against common sense. It’s ridiculous and politically motivated nonsense.
WOW! OUTSTANDING! Excellent presentation! So very worth watching/listening to! I'm going to watch again and take notes! Thank you for this fascinating video!
The Danish Diabetes Association, of which I am a member, recently had an article out called "The Battle of the Diets", because more and more Danish diabetics are shunning the official recommendations (which are based on all that fat research from the US), of 60% of energy coming from carbs, eat low fat alternatives, more vegetable oils etc.
They put a disclaimer saying they might be wrong about the previous recommendations, but there wasn't enough evidence to give new guidelines, and diabetics should do what works best for them.
Well, I followed the guidelines exactly, as a type 1 diabetic since age 14 (30 now), and guess what? I never had normal blood sugars, as that of a healthy person, but was under what was considered acceptable for insulin treated diabetics. The international guidelines are so lax when it comes blood sugar control, because no one is able to have normal blood sugars eating 60% of their energy needs from carbs.
Now I've been diagnosed with autonomic neuropathy and mild gastroparesis, even as a compliant diabetic, due to abnormal blood sugars.
I switched over the Dr. Richard K. Bernstein's low carb diet, who himself has been a type 1 for 73 years and still working as a doctor at age 85, and has a youtube channel. Now I have almost normal blood sugars, only in a few months, something that 16 years of following the recommendations wasn't able to do.
avoid insuline spiking high glycemic foods and you will not have to take as much insuline . for you a high fat diet carnivore would probably help a lot. good luck and wishing you the best with your health and life.
I've yet to see a single organization admit they've ever been wrong about anything, then becoming a driver of change. They're all political and economic, not scientific.
Sirius White It doesn’t cause it per se. There is a correlation, but it’s far from the thing that causes it. There is also a direct correlation with the amount of gluten a mother eats while pregnant and the risk of the child having type 1 diabetes later in life. There is also a link between certain enteroviruses and type 1 diabetes antibodies with 3 fold increase of diabetes risk. There is a 1% chance of a child having T1D if the mother gets T1D after having given birth and a 3% chance if she has it before becoming pregnant. If both parents have it before becoming parents, there is a 15-20% chance of the child getting it. Siblings of a T1D have a 10% chance of developing it too. And so on.
In other words, it’s complicated. I took a genetic test for fun, and it showed I have multiple genes which increase the risk of T1D by at least 30 times of the general public.
It’s a multi-genetic and multi-factorial disease with environmental, genetic and epigenetic factors playing a role.
With a diabetes diagnosis there's nothing wrong in aiming for food with a lower glycemic index. But I think you are confusing people if you mix type 1 and type 2 diabetes. They couldn't be more different. Insulin deficiency versus impaired insulin response despite HIGH insulin level. Type 1 has nothing to do with an unhealthy lifestyle or any kind of metabolic disorder. It's entirely endocrinologic. Most type 1 patients are experts of their own disease, so you'll know that, but most type 2 patients won't understand the details and might get confused.
Christian S. I never said there was anything wrong in choosing low glycemic foods
I’m not mixing type 1 and 2. I have type 1 myself, but it’s wrong to say it has nothing to do with lifestyle. Type 1 is very complicated. There is a 1% increase in incidence rate of type 1 diabetics every year in most western countries, which indeed does indicate some lifestyle factor. Either environmental pollution or diet choices, or a mixture of the two. Type 1 diabetes is far less heritable than type 2 diabetes is as well. If one parent has type 2 diabetes you have a lifetime risk of getting it by 40% and up to 80% if both have it; this despite lifestyle choices. It’s a disservice to type 2 diabetics to blame them for it - the blame does nothing to help them.
Over time, if one doesn’t control their diabetes, it will eventually lead to insulin deficiency, also in type 2. You can prolong your own insulin production as a type 1 if you go low carb, as well. The metabolic stress on the beta cells on a high carb diet increases the speed of destruction of beta cells. You probably won’t be able to save them over time as a type 1, due to the autoimmunity, but you can prolong the honeymoon period - often up to years afterwards.
When you eat carbs you will need the same amount of insulin to metabolize them, no matter if it’s high or low glycemic index foods. You just won’t spike the blood glucose as fast on low GI foods. This is a problem for especially type 2 diabetics because a type 2 needs more insulin to metabolize carbs than is normal, and as insulin is an anabolic hormone (i.e. builds up tissue), it will aid in the production of fat cells causing them to increase in weight just by the circulation of insulin on its own. This makes it very difficult for type 2’s to loose weight without medications and a low carb diet.
So it’s a bit of “the chicken or egg” thing with type 2’s. Did the insulin resistance cause them to gain weight or did the weight cause the insulin resistance. That isn’t entirely clear. :)
All this information needs to be turned into a Netflix documentary to reach a wider public. I switched from a 7+ year vegan to keto/carnivore just 3 weeks ago and never felt this great. Everyone should at least give it a try for 30 days and then decide whats the healthiest nutrition for their body.
I worry that if I ate too much meat, I might get more uric acid and have gout flare up.
Don't eat too much meat.
It is watch fat fiction on Netflix or prime
My story is the same. Vegetarian 10 years to vegan for a year. I listened to my body which was not feeling good. Switched to a keto diet and felt 💯 better within a week. I eat meat, lots of eggs, salmon, sardines and still enjoy low carb vegetables drizzled in butter or olive oil. Highly recommend trying this switch and see how you feel!
AGREE
Love Nina’s presentations. A lot of very interesting information, very well organized and presented. She is a great speaker.
I am on Keto with IF for over a year. So, I know first hands that she is telling the truth about fats, meat and carbs. Sometimes I watch her presentations just to confirm my own findings about low carb diet. Thank you Nina!
4:35 Centre of preoccupation in western society is where I can get my protein, not fat.
It's so obvious in the whole speech that you're focusing people's attention on the FAT / CARB issue, and completely ignoring the dark side of the question - PROTEIN OVERLOAD. I completely agree that the food industry is ruining people's lives with ultra-processed food, overloaded with sugar and vegetable oils, but the real solution is NOT a big fat chicken or a cheese hamburger.
Be aware that, a century ago people did not have access to all the ultra-processed crap, and animal foods were also limited to once a week or even less. The cost of meat and dairy should be 10 times higher in terms of production and impact on people's health, but the government is subsidizing these foods massively.
The real solution for fixing the western diet is switching back to WHOLE FOODS MOSTLY PLANTS.
Thank God for a balanced presentation without sanctimony!

8 months ago I was 55 yo and weighed 270. Today, after adopting a Keto lifestyle and practicing intermittent fasting, I am down to 210. My goal is to get and stay below 190 lbs (which will put me around 15% body fat) for the rest of my life.
Just don't conflate the causal relationships here. Keto allowed you to consume less total energy during the day than you expended (because carbohydrates are the bigger source of total calories in most people's diets and are the least satiating aspect of their diet). You lost weight because keto forced you to eat less.Good job -- but you could have also reached the same goal by reducing the amount of food you were previously eating.
@@danyalraza4388 I respectfully disagree Danyal. What you are hypothesizing is the calorie is a calorie idea. Most people who have adopted a keto way of eating have come to realize that this is simply not true. Metabolically speaking calories are energy and all energy is not equal in the body. Trust me I wish your way of thinking would work for me, that way I could save up all my allotted calories for the day and splurge on a hunk of cake. After all, a calorie would be a calorie, right?

I can recall as a child , preschool , going into the local city to pay bills and other buisness . On the way home , we walked from the city to the export meat works , picked up the side of mutton or hoggett with offal at times , beef sometimes and pork that all of that meat had good fat on it . Chickens were off the table , to useful around the place .
Nowadays , it's vegetables - mostly leafy greens or the fruit - sweet or savory , occasionally fish . Much is price dependent as most fruit or vege are around the 5 buck mark as a minimum , going up to 12 bucks for half pound butter , certain items grown commercially like tomatoes , capsicum , cucumber, mushrooms that need speacilist environments or substrates to produce , are expensive .
Manufactured foods are avoided as vacuous calories , just like fizzy drinks , or other sugary drinks like fruit juices . My drinking water comes from a wild source , which even in flood , remains relatively clear & always free of toxins . and the odd bit of foraged food . Oils are rare , margarine never gets a look in - it tastes foul .
My diet is sufficient to meet most of my needs , any supplements are for replacement due to natural deficientcy in native soil .
I also practice restricted caloric intake , and periodic fasting for 24 hours ; waist lines varied over time at between 32 inches , and , 36 inches , over a 50+ year span .
Exercise ; there's several forest parks with in an easy walk , which can take several hours or less than an hour , depending on which tracks are taken .
The dude talking about salt (at 50-ish minutes) makes so much sense in the context of one of my coworkers who is overweight! She has told me she never adds salt to anything, but I know she eats like an entire medium sized bag of cheetos and the like pretty often (along with bigger portions of whatever else). Her brain is trying to find salt wherever it can so she tries to eat more and what she eats more of is carbs. Gah. Very sad. Interesting information, though.
