Is Keto More Effective for Seniors?
Big Picture Answer(s):
Keto may be more effective for seniors because they tend to be in poorer health and, therefore, have more benefits to gain. However, keto is also an excellent tool to maintain good health; so, it’s at least equally as important for younger people to adopt keto so that they can maintain their metabolic youth, despite an increasing chronological age.
Representative Research:
Neurodegenerative Diseases (Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s)
Aging is associated with a decrease in the brain’s ability to use glucose, as measured by FDG-PET scan. This is known to contribute to the development of neurological diseases, like Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease.
Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease primarily strike people over the age of 65. The older you are, the more likely you are to develop the disease.
Newport M. et al. Alzheimer’s and Dementia 2015, www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/arti...
This is a case report of a 63-year-old man with Alzheimer disease. When he was put on a ketogenic diet, he exhibited a rapid improvement in mood, social ability, and memory. He also exhibited significant improvements on cognitive tests and his neurodegeneration stopped progressing.
Vanitallie T. et al. Neurology 2005, www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1...
In this feasibility study, 5 patients with Parkinson’s disease - the second most common and fastest growing neurodegenerative disease in the world - were put on a ketogenic diet for one month. By the end of the month, all participants exhibited a 20-80% improvement in their symptoms, as measured by the standard clinical test of Parkinson’s disease severity (UPDRS).
Insulin Resistance
Insulin resistance is associated with age (www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8...) and underpins many chronic diseases, including diabetes and obesity.
Ebbling C. et al. British Medical Journal 2018, www.bmj.com/content/bmj/363/b...
In this study, 162 people were randomly split into three groups, a high-carb group, a medium-carb group, and a low carb group. The diets of all three groups were initially isocaloric, but were calorie adjusted over the 20-week study to maintain the participants’ body weights. Not only did the research find that eating lower carb increases energy expenditure, but they found that the effect was more pronounced in those who were initially more insulin resistant. For example, among those who completed the study, those who were insulin sensitive to start burned 135 more calories if they ate low carb as compared to high carb, whereas those who were insulin resistant to start burned 478 more calories if they ate low carb as compared to high carb. In short, low carb was beneficial for everyone, but the most beneficial for those who started out as more insulin resistant, likely because they had more ground to make up (and in the general population, insulin resistance can increase with age).
Mitochondrial dysfunction
Mosconi L. et al. Journal of Alzheimer's Disease 2011, content.iospress.com/articles...
Because elderly people will have accumulated more mitochondrial damage overtime, it’s especially important that they protect their mitochondria with a ketogenic diet. However, since mitochondria do have their own DNA and get passed directly from mother to child in the mother’s egg (the father’s sperm doesn’t donate mitochondria) the effects can be transgenerational! In the study linked above 36 cognitive normal healthy adults were compared with respect to their activity of the final complex in the electron transport chain (complex IV/COX). Complex IV/COX gets damaged in Alzheimer’s disease, so the hypothesis was that individuals with a maternal family history (MH) of Alzheimer’s disease would have a decrease in COX activity relative to individuals with no family history (NH) or a paternal family history (PH). As you can see, this is exactly what they found! These results are remarkable because they (1) follow on the well-established knowledge that mitochondrial damage accumulates with age and contributes to disease, (2) suggest that some of use may start off with slightly damaged mitochondria, so it’s important for everyone to manage mitochondrial health, and (3) suggest that the choices we make (if you’re a woman) when we are young before we have kids not only affect our health but the health of our future children!

If you want to see my video on Intermittent Fasting over 40, check it out here 👉🏼 ua-cam.com/video/njM2swbICYg/v-deo.html
Thomas DeLauer What about Vitamin K2? Never heard that mentioned.
What video should I watch as a 52 year old woman? You confused me with the title and then content of this video.
hey man..please settle this for me....calories DO matter even on KETO right?? so do i start w protein needs? and add fat from there?? to see how MUCH to et? too many keto guys are fatties that eat too much and say calories dont matter !
Each time I watch one of your videos I find it so interesting and well documented, but I have a huge problem with the second camera. It is like listening to someone and looking at them in the eyes, and they look straight way. Very disturbing...
I would love to see a playlist of all of your material and advice for over 40 or over 50 - thanks!
My personal notes for future reference.
1:05 DHA. Fatty Fish -- SMASH/ Sardines-Mackerel-Anchovies-Salmon-Herring.
3:32 Turmeric
5:16 Vitamin D
7:24 Vitamin A Retinol form. Beef Liver/Wilted Spinach. Cod Liver Oil?
8:47 More Protein than a younger you. 1.0-1.5xWeight(kg)

iroulis thank you for the information list.
Yes!! Thsnk you so much!!
Didn't he say to reduce gluten?
I LOVE that you summarize the "take-aways"! SO HELPFUL! Thank you--Li =)
Thank you!!!
In 79, and have been eating Keto since 1/20/2016, nearly 4 years. I did this because my kidneys were failing due to a virus at age 17. I’ve never smoked and never started drinking because of my gradually dropping kidney function. Within 4 months I had lost all extra lbs, and raised my GFR by 40 points. I have experimented with all sorts of “must do’s”. I have raised my protein about 30 percent since I saw I was losing some muscle, and overall I’m much healthier!
YAAAY!!! GOOD FOR YOU FOR TAKING ACTION OVER YOUR LIFE!!
Thomas, I'm 54 and I weighed 311 in January of this year. With your help with I'm currently at 242 and still on the way down. Thanks so much for the informative, inspiring videos! I don't feel like I would have had this level of success without your guidance.
How are you now?
could you share our diet plan?
Congratulations! I continue to follow Thomas's videos and am currently on round 2 of losing weight on keto, after my first attempt, falling off the wagon due to some trauma, am back following his tips with success. He knows his stuff and is such a great resource. Don't give up! You can do this! Good Luck on your weight loss journey.
yes please share you diet plan
I used to weigh 300 now 234 i want this going all the way
I'm 76. Started Keto 16 mos ago. Never felt better since 18 yrs old.
Edward Ingram Isn’t it too bad that we ( I’m 70 ) had only BAD nutritional information when we were younger. At least good information is available, now.
Thanks! I am 76 and have only just discovered Keto. Trying to decide if it worth the effort...
Good for you!
63 years old. On Keto with IF for 7 months and lost 90 pounds. I weigh what I did in 1995! I've undone over 20 years of bad habits and debauchery painlessly! Thomas' episode on How to do Keto was the first one I watched when I decided to try it. Thank you!
Thank you, Thomas. I am 71 and on keto and feel like I did when I was 40. I appreciate you doing this video for those over 50.
Thanks, at almost 66 years old, lactose intolerant and gluten sensitive, this has given me a real life line. It's nice to be spoken to as our age not some 20-something trying to get fit. Any more videos designed for us oldies would be gratefully appreciated
I am so curious if your lactose intolerance also went away with keto like mine did?
*I'm better physically, mentally, spiritually & holistically at 52 then I was at 32 and 42.*
I literally do everything that you're saying.
Me too i feel better at 55tnan 30 or 40years
I only been on for Lil over a month and yes I can say I second that motion.15vyrs of constant pain gone and better every day
Yep I came off keto, regretted it and put on weight. Now I’m back to keto and fasting to remove the weight and feel young again!! I recently turned 50
Wish I'd discovered the Keto/fasting lifestyle decades ago...I'm 58 and have battled my weight since 6 years old...
This lifestyle has revolutionized my life...I love it...
Ditto! At least we NOW know and hopefully can have many healthier years ahead of us. Thanks to people like Thomas and his well researched and science backed information.
So true, been fighting the SAD for years,,, yes I lost but I would gain it all back plus it ruined my metabolism.
@dawnnie 7678 Yep, me too. Mom was a child of the depression (I was born in 1958), so she had the crazy-making combo of “Eat everything on your plate” plus “Don’t get fat.” She made sure I got that combo too. ☹️ I tried keto diet a year ago, and only lost the water weight from reduced carbs, and I felt like crap, probably from not enough potassium & water, so I gave up. I wasn’t brave enough to consider fasting then. How are you doing, 4 months since you posted this?
Me too. Keto has helped my weight, my skin and my mood.
Another lie the MSM told you.
I really tried sticking with the keto, but I just felt awful and it's also really hard to adhere to. Then I tried the Agoge diet and it was life changing, I highly recommend it to everybody.
agogediet is amazing, i had great results with it
Just got the diet emailed to me, looks good
screw off with your obvious commercial.
You probably weren't getting enough salt and magnesium and depending on whose advise you were following, too much fat and not enough protein.
Huh, I just hit 50 this year and have been doing 16/8, sometimes 18/6 for the past few months. It's made a huge difference and I feel great.
Spot on!!!!!!!!!, heavy weight lifting especially leg press, will affect your bones and muscle like Vitamin D3 and fish oil. This video should be called (Ageless in your 50-60's). Coq10 is very good for the heart.
I am 60 and constantly fast 20 to 23 hours and my muscle mass is increasing, presently at 18% fat.
When I get down to 10% I will likely back off to 16 to 18 hours but I just don't feel hungry while burning my subcutaneous fat off.
60 is today's 40!🤗
I'm 68 and I mostly love being on keto. The smell of freshly baked bread can still get to me (it's a glorious thing), but my cravings for all things carbohydrate are GONE!!! Thank you, Thomas!!!
YES!! Isn’t it wonderful to no longer crave the carbs!!
I've fasted my entire life. I have been seriously on keto for three weeks now. In ketosis. Loving it! I have zero hunger from nine o'clock pm until around four pm. I drink two cups of coffee throughout the day. Nothing touches these lips. The thought of eating makes me nauseous. I always knew it was good for me even when people slammed me for it. It makes keto so SO easy. I love this lifestyle
Well I’ll be 63 this year and I still don’t think of myself as a senior. I even got carded for trying to order senior coffee, LOL! That made my day.
But I know I need different things probably because I am older and I’m very grateful that Thomas DeLauer put this up.
I’m already doing a lot of the things that you mentioned but this should help to fill in a lot of gaps and help me see things that I can do to get more results from Keto.
Thanks
I started Keto at 75 yrs. old and weighed 270 lbs. One year later at 76 I weigh 170 and I never got hungry or sick. My blood work has been the best it has ever been and I have never looked back. All this is thanks to youtube. I do 3 miles daily at 3.2 mph on treadmill at least 5 days a week and also HIIT on resistance machine twice a week. I never felt better.
You are fantastic!!! 😉
I'll be 56 next month and feel like I'm 80 now because of a knee problem that I can't get fixed due to not having insurance and not making nearly enough money to get anything done about it. On the bright side, I'm learning all about the character qualities of patience and endurance, lol.
I hope you're doing well.
@@man_vs_life I am. Thank you.
I have been waiting for this video for a year now. Turning 66 next month and have struggled with weight loss and finding the right amount of fasting and supplements that I should be taking. I'm also a cancer survivor and the chemo drugs did a number on the good cells I had! I LOVE Keto, and this video is the one that is going to help me for years to come. Thanks, Thomas.
Thank you so much, Thomas, for all this information. I am 72, vegan, healthy, but I still watch many of your UA-cams for tips and health information. I am now going to add daily SMASH. I might even add a little piece of beef liver, but not sure about that one. I have both available since I make my dog organic, raw food and she gets sardines and liver along with her other meats and supplements, I buy the healthiest and most sustainable I can find. I'd better eat what my body needs if I want to outlive her! :). BTW I found the emoji cute and funny. I don't know why it caused such a reaction. Come one, laugh and prove that we don't look that way and that we still have our humor.
Thank you! I’m 65 and in physical and mental decline due to White Matter Disease. Your information and clear, concise explanation is much appreciated!
After trial and error I've finally found how I love liver. Marinate it in generous lemon juice, mustard, knorr powder and other dry spices. Fry it in bacon fat. Eat it with a side you enjoy or by itself. I like it with tomatoes and green beans. Have a couple slices of bacon as a treat on your plate. I've been religiously eating it every week this way, very easy to consume. I use calf liver.
Oh, cool! I almost always throw about 1/2 bag of spinach in my egg/cheese scramble. A few Tbsp of salsa in the mix is great, too!
Mr. DeLauer - Thank you for this video. I actually commented a couple of weeks ago when you asked if there was interest is such content. Thank you for your responsiveness. I found this video very informative. Keep up the great work! Much appreciated.
Wow. Thank you! I've been "sort of" on Keto ever since I hit 'retirement age' (I can't retire however) and it's been over 3 years now. My objective has been to improve mental clarity and general health to successfully keep up with my gig economy workload. I say "sort of" because my primary guide is listening to how my body reacts day-to-day, hour-to-hour to what I'm eating and otherwise doing.
Your points about Vitamin A, exercise, increased protein, Vitamin D, and the hours for IF programs are absolutely in line with what my body's been telling me!
I'm not living in the US, and I've found I don't do well with supplements (too concentrated, irritate my digestive system, high rebound if I later stop), but daily deep orange winter squash salad and getting outside in the sun do help. I did find a personal trainer at my local gym who understood what I want to do (avoid becoming frail, build up stamina), and could set up flexible menus of HIIT with weight machines that have been very beneficial.
P.S. I was taken to a top restaurant and ordered beef liver, just to see what they would do to it - they sauteed it lightly with onion and apple slices. It may not make the strict Keto diet because of the cooked apple, but it did improve the taste greatly.
I am 62 years old. My knees are shot due to weight gain and unbeknownst to me, slight femur deformation. I had steroid shots given directly to my knees. I had night sweats and fever. I don't want to do that again. Then I saw one of Thomas' vids and it made so much sense. I literally went through carb withdrawals with migraine and feeling horrible. I know my body was double-reacting to the steroids and carb withdrawal. In 3 days I have dropped 6 lbs and I feel so good. I need to lose about 30 more pounds but with Thomas' great videos I am feeling hope. Was truly feeling at the bottom due to knee pain, fatigue and general lack of strength. Thank you, Thomas! And to everyone here, thank you for your supportive comments. 😊
Yes... Now, how about a workout vid for older peeps?
Exactly...
Peeps. #sigh
Yes, gentle on the knees
That’s right. And maybe help us to understand how far they should go in terms of weight training in order to gain muscles and improve bone density. I’m asking for my mum.
Yes! Pleeeease!
I’m keto over 60 and I love and follow you .
More over 60 VIDEOS
PLEASE!!
Thanks so much Thomas. Long time follower and because of you I am doing everything you mentioned! Snaps for 62 year olds! Also, my delay scan tech said I have the bones of a 20 year old. Not bragging it’s all because of you and your great content that I am where I am😘
I am 51. I weighed 304 in November of 2019. I went keto the week before Thanksgiving, and now I weigh 255. I feel fantastic! My blood pressure is 100-105 over 60-65 on average now. It was 130+/80+ on average. My total blood cholesterol has DROPPED to 174 at my last check in February. I do not get tired as easily. I have a life worth waking up for now. Thanks!!!
I'm 53 and been keto for over 2 years and IF for 3 years xx and glad I do all that already for long time
Thanks for thinking of this age group. Much appreciated, and you have included some GREAT information. So keep up the fatty fish oils, more protein, more spinach (yummy), throw in some intermittent fasting, weight training. And I'll keep feeling awesome!!!
Spinach is an oxalic acid superhighway. Best avoided unless you like kidney stones.
I recently turned 60, I've been doing keto off and on for almost 4 years ... it helps when done right and ketosis is easily lost ... I'll keep trying.
I'm 56 and been doing a modified keto on and off for about 3 years too. I like it.
*Aging is a unique phase of life, and it's refreshing to see a guide specifically tailored to individuals over 50 who want to embark on a keto journey. Thank you for creating a resource that will undoubtedly benefit many!*
When you suggest having fish "everyday" - and also advocate different types of protein for good gut health - this presents a conundrum for me. When I'm in ketosis, I am almost never hungry. I have to make myself eat one meal a day. If I had fish "everyday" then I'd have *only* fish - which would be bad for my gut health.
Thanks Thomas. I'm 56, and in great shape. I've been following you and Dr. Berg for a couple of years. But not for Keto. After losing 40 lbs. on my version of Atkins I started with you for Keto, and slowly regained 10 lbs and saw blood in my urine, so, I quit keto. I'm a doctoral student, so, you know that I've been very thorough on my research of Keto. But it just doesn't seem to work for me. So, I follow you now for all of the other things you talk about -like this. And I am grateful because my family history is loaded with high cholesterol and diabetes. Not only have you helped me to improve my health, but you've saved me money on supplements. But I still don't understand why Keto didn't work for me, nor why I saw blood in my urine (which went away when I quit Keto).
Kidney stones can result in blood being present in the urine. High protein could have been the culprit.
@@MrMarcriv80 Thanks. I know that. But the problem is that the blood showed up after 3 months of keto. And it stopped when I stopped keto. So it may have developed due to high protein diet but why did it take 3 months of keto to bring the blood into the urine and why did it stop when I quit keto? In fact I've been back on my high protein diet for over a year now and still have not seen blood in my urine return.
Bravo Thomas, Most everything that I see on UA-cam about keto is usually talking to young people or middle-aged people and that's fine. But don't forget about us old guys. You really had a lot of good useful information, I like it that you basically preach the omnivore diet in a ketogenic form I do believe that we are not carnivores and we are not herbivores, millions of years of evolution have brought us to this point by being omnivores. I also wanted to mention that I'm going to Start using the Thrive Market one of your sponsors. Keep up the good work. You are fast becoming my favorite keto UA-cam coach. I'm 75 years old, male, Run my own video production business, And I'm going to play racquetball this morning.
71/disabled Vet with mobility issues and a lifetime of being overweight. Constant pain (22+ surgeries) fused lumbar and left leg. Started keto 10/01/21 and have had lost 30 lds so far (233lds start now around 200) with a goal of 165ld for optimum health. I struggle on occasion and hunger is always taunting me to cheat. I stay the course and push through. In fact I have a coffee mug with just those words on it that I use for my green tea. My best advise. The alternative is pain...sadness and death. I chose happiness and life. That helps keep me focused and on track. Be patient. It takes time..so did getting fat.
I'm 67, and not a day goes by that I don't intermittent fast for at least 18 hours, while basically eating OMAD, including plenty of good fats & protein. Also, I've experimented with all kinds of fasts, from 21-day to 5-day. Currently, in addition to my 18-hour intermittent fast every day, I'm also doing a 36-hour dry fast twice per week. I've been mostly on keto for a year now, but from late May until mid-September I experimented with just eating carnivore for 3 & 1/2 months. About 2 weeks ago I started reintroducing low-carb vegetables back into my diet. My BMI is about 20.4, and I plan on returning to lifting moderately heavy weights, hopefully by January 2020.
Probably not the eating regimen & fasting schedule that Thomas would prescribe for me, but I feel pretty great !
Hi Thomas. Thank you so much for posting this video. You are AWESOME! I have lost 40 pounds in two months following your program! Keto really works and I can't thank you enough Thomas! For anyone out there sitting on the fence. Jump off the fence and follow Thomas's Keto videos and you too will see HUGE resolves. TRUST ME!
Excellent info! Helping me to tweak my keto because it really is different when older. At 57, was having lots of nighttime muscle cramps. I think this video will help. Keep the 50's info coming! Now, what to do about all this cortisol. Changing diet is easy. Changing stress levels is a different beast! I never take quiet times, but will start immediately after seeing this vid.
Are you taking enough Electrolytes?
Check your potassium and salt... too much potassium because not enough salt.
I got rid of night time muscle cramps by taking a magnesium supplement.
Checkout the nutrients in nettles and dandelion leaves. Nettles are also suprisingly high in protein , not just vit a and C. Nettles contain zero oxylates too.
I am 56 years old and watching all your videos. I am so happy to learn about this keto over 50. Thank you Thomas. You are so smart. Thanks again.
Love your videos, I’m 59 and all this information it’s gold to me. Thank you sooo much. 🙏
re telemere discussion at 6:00, the caps at the ends of shoelaces are called aglets.
I'm over 60 and I want to try Thrive. I still work from 7am to 5pm and having my meals sorted out for me will make my life easier and a Plus for my health, that part I will report back in a month to let you know. I am so glad I took the time to listen to you; I am learning so much from you for FREE!!!!!☺️🙋
Wow! I’ll be 60 this year!
Thank you for sharing I never knew because you don’t hear a lot of information about those of us in the Keto 60 plus community!
Thank you so much 😊
I love liver. Doesn’t turmeric require pepper to be effective ?
Yes... Black pepper allows absorption of tumeric...
Yes, fresh cracked preferably.
Another favorite video. Learned so much from this one. I have listened to all your videos and I thank you for all you do!
Thank you so much for all the info you gave on this video. I did made a request not too long ago for you to provide info to subscribers over 60 and you are delivering. Again thank you for it
I'm almost 50. Just turned 47. Yup everything is changing in my body. Thanks for your videos very informative.
Thank you for this video, especially for making it so clear and talking slowly so we can understand it for people over 50.
Im 56 e still fasting but not every day . So good .thank you Thomas always
Thanks Thomas! I shared your video in a Facebook Keto group with over 25,000 ppl that are over 50yy. Appreciate your work and dedication to live a healthier lifestyle!
Thank you for this! I just turned 60 and have been working on going Keto for a few months. I thought there was something wrong with me because I wanted to eat more meat than was usually recommended. Now I watch your videos and eat more intuitively and although I'm not losing much weight, I feel like I'm on the right track. Also, I tried extended intermittent fasting (like a 6 hour eating window) and was truly miserable. Thank you again...please keep the 'old people' videos coming!
If you have to use readers to see. You’re a senior. If you have a lanyard, you’ve accepted it. Lol
Love this...as I peer thru my bifocals to read...
Thanks for the info. I’ve been watching your vids for several months. I finally decided to take the keto plunge. I like your approach and have only followed your guild lines. I’m 59 and keto has changed my life. I started at 255 lbs. and after 3 weeks I’m up to walking 45 mins a day and down to 240 lbs. My first goal is 225 lbs and then start some heavy lifting. Thanks again for doing what you do!
This is very helpful info. I have been KETO for nearly 4 years and it has been an amazing healing tool for me. I have decreased my husband's carb intake but he still doesn't think "there is anything wrong with him eating refined carbs because he's on the slender side." As he is aging, his glucose numbers are going up and so I am hoping that seeing this will help to convince him that "you are what you eat". Thanks for always great advice!
I’m 52 & are just looking for energy and bring the little gut down and just get out of depression. I barely eat or sleep since I hit 50 it’s been this way 🤒🥴I hope this works. I can’t even walk more than 15 minutes, when I used to walk 5 miles . I’ll keep you posted.
Thank you, I am 68 and just starting Keto. This video was so helpful.
How did it go for you?
Thanks for the info. Almost everything my doctor told me👍 I’m doing keto but it is challenging because you really have to plan out recipes. At 54 I feel super great but then I walk 30 min briskly everyday! Tbh eating sugar and carbs made me sick! But I had no clue that they were the problem until I dropped them out of my diet!
Turmeric is to be taken with pepper to maximize benefits
This was so very informative and helpful for me. I started Keto almost a year ago and just found your site last month. You are a godsend for this senior springchicken (72 but who's counting?!?!)!!!!!! I have been watching your BusinessWeek hours a day and learning so much about extending my good health. Thank you for all your sharing of information. I am now your loyal follower!!! 👍👍💕💕😀😀💕💕👍👍
Wow, A LOT of work went into making this video, thank you very much for taking the time to educate us.
Thank you for this updated information!
Such great content. Thank you, Thomas!
Just subscribed, I am 50 and gained weight due to menopause. I currently lost 18 pounds by watching calories and working out 30 minutes with weights 3 times a week. I just started keto this week as I want to drop 18 more pounds to get to my normal weight. I have 2 teenage sons that are active and I want to stay active with them and for the rest of my life. This video was very informative. Thanks
Please do a video on the effect of walking and hiking. Science on the effects of different lengths...what happens to ketones and blood sugar when we walk over an hour, when we walk HIIT style instead of steady state. For many older and very overweight people this is the place to start and what's recommended by their doctors.
Thank you so much for addressing the issues that us baby boomers need. So many of the Keto channels neglect to include the huge aging population.
Catherine McCurdy....There it is, this video should have been titled "Keto for boomers and beyond" I don't think that would have triggered anyone But then, who knows?
I just turned 63 in Sept. thanks so much for this. As always Brilliant. Thanks.
Super video as always Thomas. Just what I needed to hear. Doing most of what you have mentioned and you brought up a couple of new ones that I will add.
Thomas you again brighten my day! I am so happy to see that you care about us baby boomers . I Just recently started your 30 day challenge and already feel the difference. Thank you so much for this video. I will continue to make the changes you suggest. You are a true gem!!! Life will reward you for all your hard work. A warm hug sent for you from Canada
Thanks for this one Thomas! I began Keto last year when I turned 50. Most everything is going great but I have noticed my body not responding accordingly on some things. This vid makes things crystal clear. Making adjustments now 😁
Thanks Thomas perfect timing my folks have started keto n my mum has already lost 2 stones. I have sent them the link
Very helpful video for this 55-year-old trying to age gracefully, while maintaining muscle mass, vitality, and mental acuity! I was already doing most of your suggestions but the additional tweaks are appreciated. Very high caliber video, the quality I’ve come to expect from you, Thomas! Thank you for realizing that life doesn’t end at age 50!
1 year to 60, making progress. Thanks for the helpful tips for those of us that are pro - active concerning less meds and more living.
Thank you, very much Thomas!!!
Hi Tom, love your videos, however, your title is just wrong here.
Your title says “over 50”, but your info is for over 60. 10 years is a huge difference.
Our time is on loan
Thomas you are fantastic. Thanks so much for all of your extraordinary efforts to help everyone through proper nutrition.
I am 59 and I found this very helpful. Some of this I am already doing, but, some I am not. I appreciate that you made a video for us older people! I have partial seizures and I am always open to learning more ways to protect my brain. I added intermittent fasting about 5 days ago. I have been doing the 16/8 and have not had any problems.
I’m 51 and just started Keto like 3 days ago and I am so thankful for this video. I have learned so much and it help me put things in a better prospective. Do you have or know how I can find out meal plans that I can follow? It makes it so much easier for me if I have menus to go by. I need to lose 75 pounds. Thank you so much, have a blessed day😊
Marcie,take it easy,you have to pass a period of transition,so bon't do it so sudenly,give to your body,special to your brain,a perood of accomodation with this new statement,to have succes and to be able to do it constantely in the your life.As women you have to take it easy,to give time to your hormonal sistem to adapt ,and to switch,the regulation of you by hormones,step by step.Aniway,to reduce,sugar,rafined sugar,and frised cook,in oil,are verry important,the adaptation may take about 1 or 2 month,until your body learn to make it's own glucose,from your body fat,and during this time you will become insulin sensitiv.These are first steps to have succes.Many people faild into this keto,because they think that it is so simple to swich your behaviouros brain,and body sudenly.They renounce,early becouse is dificult to face it,if theyr's body isn't adapted with this.Take in consideration that 90% of modern people,have became,adictive to sugar,by the brain.Not your body need sweeties,but your brain is adictive to it.Take it slowely,reduce your,sugar,bread,junk food,frised,than replace them with legummies,vegies,you will see how the veggies are so sweet,but in comparation to cookies,candies,etc.of course now they seems to be less.Boiled or steam,the meat,eggs,some rice,some potatoes,the cuantity of them is important,anny excces becom a problem.From fruits chose berries.Take your electrolites,do some cardio,or beter,strenght training,awaile,after 4-5 months may chose HIIT training,depends on your fittness condition,but for the begening,the key is adaptation...it is about insulin resistance,about your liver condition,hearth,bones,organs,level of hormones,and special your brain. Be smart,patient,and determinated.For to bigining fast a today,no fast tomorrow,fast the day after tomorrow,and so on.Listen your body,and don't be in panic,with some signs,your body will adapt to it. Wish you succes. Excuse my english.
You have to start with intermitent fasting,first,but no prolonged fast,just skip your breakfest,is oook.
In addition to the CoQ10, I'd like to know the recommended guidelines for the vitamins & supplements mentioned in the video.
EXCELLENT video Thomas! Thank you!
Ah refreshed! I 1st saw this video when it came out, about 6 months into my keto transformation. I reached a weight of 218lbs at 5'5" by may 2019 and id had enough of my sister riding my butt about sugar, bread etc. I'm approaching 4 years sugar free and eating mostly keto specific. Its time to give another push to improve overall health and protect my aging self. Thanks for the reminder!
Laird Superfoods has an EXCELLENT coconut based powdered coffee creamer with turmeric
I love laird!! They just came out with a mushroom mix and matcha powder as well. Great stuff.
I always say “It’s not your age - it’s the mileage” even though I’m 67 I still don’t think 🤔 of myself as old..😉
The BEST! You are over the top knowledgeable on your topics and presentation skills are perfect. Well Done. Thanks
Thomas thanks for all this great information! I am 76 years old and doing Keto to prevent heart disease. I do intermittent fasting everyday as well. This video will help tune some things in. Thanks a lot!
S.M.A.S.H. -- Love it!
The title says "Over Age 50" and yet the video spends a significant amount of time on those "Over 60". This is slightly confusing and misleading to me as ten years makes a big difference in physiology. I just turned 50 and don't see that as being 'elderly' or 'geriatric'. Maybe you should do a separate video for the "over 60" crowd and/or re-do this video specifically for those actually in their 50s. Great information, though. Thanks!
Our time is on loan
Thanks for making this video! I need to up fish oil, COQ10, and vitamin D. Vitamin A too!
Thank you...
I checked my list that I began slowly implementing since beginning keto a year ago this January...
listening and learning here on UA-cam...
carefully weighing the evidence of research, the pros and cons...
and I was able to check off that I am doing everything you listed but the CoQ10!!!
I'll be adding it to our budget, now...
thank you for bing one of my trusted sources of truth.
Thank you for blessing us with your careful study, research and knowledge...
bless YOU for all you share!💞
thank you for these videos. i am 73 and found keto because i was frantic for a decent night's sleep. i did a lot of research and found you and a couple of others who do wonderful, informative videos. a bite at a time i learn what's what and just what to do about it. thank you.
Thank you so much for sharing this really has been helpful for me I’m gonna get on the turmeric and I love sardines and salmon I’m gonna do more of that and I do take my coconut all of my coffee and bone broth in my coffee thanks for the information very helpful😊💕
Love you! Thanks for all that information. I’m 55 but I’m taking your advice, I’m on my way to 60 🙃. I’m fasting 16/8 and occasionally 18/6, it is ok? I’m not 60 yet 😁
Keep up the excellent concepts and supported information.
So glad I found this channel. I am 62 and really needed guidance on Keto. I prefer to watch these shows than reading books that have pages of "filler" and not very informative ... I have added fasting into my plan ... WHAT a huge difference. I have had joint pain (unknown origin which is typical at our age lol) in my right elbow. It is almost gone...and yes I have increased my water consumption to 80 oz a day.
I would like there to be more clarification on this guide. Specifically, the title is Keto over 50 but it interchanges between over 50 and over 60. Instructions for over 60 are very different than over 50. So I would like in a future video that it be clarified.
Now wait a minute, Thomas... you said "Keto over age 50" in the title. All your studies are for "elderly people." Feeling pretty young at 55!
I'm 50 next week. I consider myself middle aged.
@@JohnM... especially with fasting and carbon 60. We can live to be 200 maybe. Maybe.
Same here!
Lol yep i look 30 on carnivore now 🤣at 52...
Farley Duvall I’m feeling the same and I’m 61! Keto since June 2016.
Thomas Delauer is the man! I want to help people live a healthier lifestyle as well. We are all gonna make it 💯
Ezo Fitness Agreed! Also Your channel is pretty cool. Stay consistent!
Edgar Onofre Fuarrkk!

Edgar Onofre He definitely inspired me brah!

Great video, lots of info, and brief explanations !! Thank you.
I am a 65 year old nurse who just started keto. Thank God for your site. Your knowledge and description of how keto works especially at my age makes total sense and as a health care professional in neurology I totally agree about the changes at our age group.. Thank God for your site
