- Prof. Tim Noakes was born in Harare, Zimbabwe and studied at the University of Cape Town (UCT) where he obtained an MBChB degree in 1974, an MD in 1981 and a DSc (Med) in Exercise Science in 2002. He retired as Professor of Exercise and Sports Science at the University of Cape Town in 2014 and is now an Emeritus Professor at UCT. He is cofounder with Morné du Plessis of the Sports Science Institute of South Africa
(SSISA).
I ignored my doctor's advice to go on metformin, and since then i lost 75 pounds with NO exercise regimen just by going keto. Fasting blood sugar is always between 95-99. Just amazing. Feel better than I have in 15 years, and back into the size of clothes I wore 15 years ago. Sleep much better as well, and all of my aches and pains have gone.
My favourite professor of Sports Science/ Medicine who appears the only 'one'(academic) who can admit he was wrong!! (although he was told by professorial Colleagues) A statesmen if ever I saw one and a breath of fresh air in this globalised capitalist greed driven world we live in. There are few like Tim Noakes.
I've seen just about every lecture on insulin resistance and this one is the best. It should be required viewing by every family doctor and cardiologist.
Agreed. Never understand how drs require such little knowledge of any nutrition.
One of the worst lectures I've ever seen on nutrition. Nothing but lies.

Only a nonsensical comment from a preachy zealot vegan!
@@thalesnemo2841 I'm also a preachy vegan who eats a high carb diet and who is not diabetic. Meat and dairy and fat cause insulin resistance. Watch Dr. Neal Barnard and Dr. Michael Greger.
I have been following you for months now and know you are right on. It is just difficult fighting with the food industry, agriculture=re (corn and potatoes) and the pharmaceutical industry. I will spread your knowledge until I die. You are right!!!!!
We need to listen!!! Once you see enough, the common sense will abound. thank you for your ethics in a world where the almighty dollar has tried to take over. God Bless you Tim Noakes!
YES I AGREE WITH YOU. WHEN YOU HAVE SOME TIME CHEK UP DR ERIC BERG'S VIDEOS HOPING IT COULD HELP YOU. I HAVE LOST 28 KILOS AND CURED FROM 20 YEARS OF MEDICATION. DIABEATS GOOD LUCK AND HAPPY SUCESS FOR YOU. THE WORLD MUST KNOW THAT WE CAN LIVE BETTER.
Yes - and it goes far beyond potatoes. If people were eating whole sweet corn, and ground corn, and whole potatoes, it would not be an ideal diet, but it would be better than the manufactured foods most of us eat most of the time.
Corn, and stuff manufactured from or synthesized from corn, appears in a startling number of 'food products' - in the form of High Fructose Corn Syrup, starches, etc. Even things like citric acid are synthesized from corn (nearly all the citric acid used in the food industry is made from corn in a complex manufacturing process). Corn oil is another manufactured substance from corn - which requires about 17 chemically catalyzed steps to produce - including a de-odorizing step; otherwise people would retch at the rancid smell.
And this corn is nearly all GMO, grown with massive amounts of toxic chemicals.
Soy is also common in manufactured foods, and is also an ecological disaster in the way it is produced. Along with corn, soy is the crop most grown in the USA.
*Industrial crop production in the USA produces more tons of topsoil lost than crop yield.* As much as 10 X more.
Cattle, on the other hand, are born and raised on pasture, whether 'tame' or rangeland. Even conventional beef spends only the last 90 days or so before harvest in a feedlot- out of an 18 to 24 month lifespan.

This was the first time I actually got it. Thank you.
Dr Noakes you are Amazing! I feel so grateful we have people in this world like you! Thank you!
Dr Noakes - I'm an avid reader and follower of your substantial contribution to understanding our dietary and health woes. This lecture is the absolute BEST I have found in my own journey - - the linkages and clarity are stunning . . . and powerfully point out how the processed food industry and others managed to cloud the root cause issue for so long. The "real science" and medical underpinnings here are absolutely fascinating. Thank you for the introduction to Dr. Reaven's work - - the trail was there all along.
Very good talk. These videos should be archived. One day they will all be gone.
Perfectly explained and understood. Thank you Tim
Dr. Noakes is the one to finally succeed in beating it into my thick skull. Beat in that I have a genetic condition, insulin resistance. It is a common condition. And it is a benign condition. But it becomes an active condition when I consume too many carbs - more than 25g per day. In that case, It causes my body to produce excessive insulin, which leads to 'fatty liver disease', which leads to atherogenic dyslipidemia in which the liver produces excessive triglycerides and HDL levels drop and visceral fat accumulates and LDL becomes oxidized into small dense LDL which is the stuff that winds up calcified in my arterial walls leading to narrowing and blockages. Which is why fourteen months ago I suffered a heart attack at 56. And why I now have 3 coronary artery stents. And a diagnosis of severe coronary artery disease. Eight months of pretty intense daily study, and I finally fully grasp the situation. Had I listened only to the various cardiologists at Mayo, I'd be aware of none of this. I'd still be on the low-fat diet I'd pursued for 20+ years, the diet that made me ill.
So Dr. Noakes, I thank you.
I went low-carb eight months ago, with lots of good results (got my trigs/HDL down from around 8x to 1.35x, hoping the sdLDL is way down too). This new understanding i have - this grasp that insulin resistance will always be there, waiting for me to eat excessive carbs - will help keep me focused on that 25g/day cap on intake of carbs. For the rest of my days...
Intramyocellular lipids are the key to addressing insulin resistance. Carbs include broccoli and cinnamon rolls, obviously these do not have the same effect on our health. Doug Lisle has given some very interesting talks regarding the critical importance of our food/social environment. Health is Power!
High intramyocellular lipids, particularly triglycerides, can be found in type 2 diabetics AND in elite endurance athletes. Dr. Benjamin Bikman explains why they are not the cause of insulin resistance in this video - ua-cam.com/video/MPL2RYilUms/v-deo.html. Check out the 6:45 mark.
@Peter Rabitt - Just in case you have an open mind:
- Dr. Stephen Phinney, PhD - physician (internal medicine) and nutritional researcher who has himself been in nutritional ketosis for about 14 years straight, starting after many years of research showed him the benefits: 'The Case for Nutritional Ketosis' ua-cam.com/video/_evJd_iZZzs/v-deo.html
- Jeff Volek, 'Translating the Basic Science of Nutritional Ketosis and Keto-adaptation' ua-cam.com/video/_YiBxvNORfc/v-deo.html
Dr. Barry Groves, 'What We Were Designed to Eat' ua-cam.com/video/qn5zdWucv6I/v-deo.html
- Nora Gedgaudes 'Navigating the Matix' ua-cam.com/video/GIoAiYKf8Mw/v-deo.html
Some of her talks present more of the science, but this one presents the 'why' behind what we have all be told.
And anything by Dr. Tim Noakes.
So what I’ve got out of this, my takeaway is... the root cause is not insulin resistance, that’s just another symptom, the root cause is the food we put in our mouths eg over indulgence of carbs.
Knowledge is power and anybody can change their lifestyle if they choose to.
I am a huge fan of Tim Noakes have been even since The Lore of Running days where carbo loading for running was advocated, Everything he says I believe is right. I think however it needs to be taken a little further. The key is the average insulin level taken over a long period. Yes if you eat < 25g carbs a day it will probably do it but I feel most people will need intermittent fasting as an additional powerful tool to keeping average insulin down. Remember although protein does not increase blood sugar it increases Mr Bad Boy insulin just as much as carbs! If you are sticking to < 25 g carbs you probably are doing intermittent fasting but you may not be!
Protein does not increase insulin 'just as much as carbs', but it does have a moderate affect on insulin levels. Remember: the meats people ate 30+ years ago had significantly higher fat levels than most meats people eat today. Not only did people get more fat when eating their meat, the satiating effect of the fat, and to a lesser degree the lean, effectively prevented most from over-consuming protein.
For instance, USDA 'Prime' grade beef had to be well-marbled and have a lot more fat in it than beef usually has today. Hamburger was about 70% lean and 30% fat. (Try it! You will be amazed at the flavor, if it is well raised beef.) Pork had flavor and fat. Bacon was more fat than lean. Pork roasts were covered in a nice layer of fat, and chops were micro-marbled. And ham! Ah... a real ham... a culinary delight! Sausages were generally about 50% fat. Lamb was commonly eaten, too, and the fat was appreciated.
Since the anti-fat propaganda became so widespread, beef and pork have both been bred - and fed - to be much leaner (and lower in other nutrients, too, since commercial pork is fed pretty much just GMO corn and soy... and beef cattle are finished on a grain and soy based diet as well - GMO, and grown in mono-cultures on dead, depleted soil... which is completely unnecessary. Crops and livestock can both be produced using regenerative practices). And many families that enjoyed lamb a couple generations ago no longer even eat it, (though more recent immigrants do).
Not long ago, duck and goose were not the 'rare and exotic' dishes they seem today, and both have delicious amounts of fat.
Hardly anything what he said is true.
(Cool, he gave props to Gary Taubes)
I wonder how fasting might benefit liver processes?
Dr. Jason Fung has a number of excellent videos on UA-cam on the topic of fasting. He appreciates the benefits of nutritional ketosis but has found that many of the benefits can be achieved through fasting.
Excellent presentation! Thank you so much for this.
Great talk, but I have searched and searched. What the heck is an Apostat?
A big thanks to Dr Noakes for explaining the harmful effects of a high-carb diet to our body (I feel very sorrow for the poor gingerbread man).
I switched to a very low-carb diet on Feb 1, and in 3 weeks’ time my cholesterols, liver function and blood pressure have normalised, where they had been a little bit abnormal or nearly 10 years.
So if you feel a bit like the poor gingerbread man, it’s time to make some changes. The switch to very low-carb works wonders for me so far, I must keep it up and get control of my fatty liver problem too.
I don't drink alcohol... A few years ago I was sent to the hospital to get a ultrasound to see if I had a fatty liver.
I had a fatty liver and was told "This bad, you should lose weight" and then I was sent home... Never was I told why it was bad, or what to do, not by the nurse on the hospital doing the scan, not by the doctor when he told me the results, and not by my own doctor... I was just send home, and ok, I had fatty liver.. so what, I am fat every where else, so makes sense... and I didn't do anything about it.
Earlier this year, I started keto diet. I am pretty sure back when I got that scan, I was told that I had to come in and get it checked a year later, but I never heard ANYTHING. I have a doctors appointment next moth, for a checkup on my weight loss and bloodpressure. And I am going to ask about this then.
Another example of why we should all remember that WE are responsible for our health. WE hire the medical professionals, and WE have to ask the questions, and educate ourselves enough so we know the questions to ask. Still, in the USA, most physicians are oriented toward the treatment of acute conditions, NOT the achievement or maintainence of true health.
When those who did not drink alcohol at all, or only on rare occasion, first began developing fatty liver disease, physicians assumed they were not telling the truth.
Go watch Denise Minger she give a speach about the same subject but from another persepective up to you you witch one you prefer.
Thank you so much for this.
the appestat failure happens when stress and depression are increased , i think.
Good point! Stress hormones also trigger the body to store fat. However... in the absence of stress, sugar and starch do it. Stress + sugar & starch = metabolic syndtrome, leading to diabetes, heart disease, fatty liver, etc. And aches and lack of energy, etc.
Wonderful!!
He calls him Axel
I think it was Axel Rose. Pretty much same medical advice, Ancel Keys, Axel Rose
Hallo, anybody has a transcript of the lecture? Or a hint how to get it? want to spread the message through the test. appreciate it and thanx
Insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome 33:00
VERY WELL EXPLAINED. Thank you.
Zimbabwe lost a fantastic doctor....
He moved south for better prospects.
How do you check for insulin resistance??...what test do I need to ask my doctor...or through private means??
Great question! Please do your own investigation into the topic, but you can use a blood glucose meter to test your own fasting blood glucose levels, then check it after meals at an hour, two hours, etc and see how long it takes to come down. The fasting level should be around 90. How long the levels stay elevated after eating is an indirect way of measuring insulin resistance.
For many of us, all we have to do is look in a mirror and see if we have extra weight around our middles. :-) 'Carb addiction' or a sense of being hungry, or needing to eat, drink a sugary drink, and/or snack frequently - these are all indications of insulin resistance, because the cells are no longer taking up glucose very well from the blood stream, due to the insulin resistance that makes this happen. AND the excess insulin blocks the body from burning fat... so we feel hungry. Even HANGRY.
Good luck with your physician. Few have a clue about this. Remember, you hire them, and you can fire them, if you have the money.
Oral glucose tolerance test.
See CholesterolCode.com
Good references and lipid calculator too.
If you're fat and have high bp you've got it.
High fructose corn syrup is especially problematic for fatty liver.
Is hyperinsulinemia the same as insulin resistance?
Not the same, but they always come togerher
I actually don''t like lean meat! I'm an almost 60 year old man...
Pacific Islanders have a diet rich in Bread Fruit, and Yams which are very starchy that is why they are obese
@@jonathanblacksmith - Or real, fresh meat - whether from the sea, or land animals. Obviously, the ancestors of Pacific Islanders did not have cattle, but they ate rich, high fat, meats from the sea. (Meat being the flesh of an animal, which includes fish, marine mammals, and shellfish.)
No they eat a diet rich in pork and cattle and chicken now...this is why they are obese now.
if carbs make you insulin resistant how come the people who typically eat the most carbs, are usually the leanest?
REally .. another stupid statement by PresJo ... how do you account for the fact that 63% of diet is now Carbs, 1900 it was 10% .. USDA ... and Obesity is at 30% pre-diabetics at 50% ...
Get you head out of the sand ... and read something ....
Most likely because that's combined with a lot of fat
Also, if it was solely the problem of carbohydrates, then why are there still plenty of cultures who eat quite a high percentage of carbohydrates and are free from insulin resistance?
Baloney .... Name Just 1 (One) ...
He explained all this in the video. Cultures who previously had a diet high in fat low in carbs such as Iceland were genetically prone to insulin resistance.
I have been on a keto lifestyle for 4 years and in recent months, I've been on a carnivore diet!
That's really stupid. You will get heart disease and diabetes. You should go raw vegan.
Says the diabetic...
Barrak Sadeq ......After years of eating High carb genius😒
@@jonathanblacksmith got diabetes and had to go on medication... then he became LCHF and was able to reduce his medication. Now he doesn't take it anymore. He says it took 7 years to reverse his diabetes.
