Lifting weights, eating lots of protein and living a healthy lifestyle is truly the fountain of youth! Especially for us post menopausal women! Been lifting weights for the last 20 years, turning 60 next month and feeling amazing and stronger than ever! Grateful to my doctor when I turned 40 who told me to start incorporating weights in my workouts!
She's gorgeous and her content is powerful.... I hadn't eaten red meat for over 40 years... now that's basically all I eat and my body composition completely changed: I'm a 68 yo F that does resistance training & work F/T as a physical therapist - still... thx Dr L
When I turned fifty, I started working out and eating correctly . In three years, I am the fittest I have ever been. My wife says I don't look like a grandpa anymore. I love the way I look, feel, and can do more things than then a majority of people in my peer group.
This guy is extremely skilled at interviewing. He is extracting details from the expert that can lead to a higher % of success for the listener. Well done.
So glad to have found you, Dr, I'm a soon to be 80 yr old stroke survivor who went from a prognosis of having less than a week to live with a hemorrhagic bleed in the thalamic region of my brain & complete left-sided, head to foot paralysis, to 85% totally recovered in 12 wks @ age 62. I walked out in 3 months while looking past individuals who had come in with me around the same time. Many were depressed and had not even begun to rehab yet. Ironically my dad, uncle and kid brother all passed exactly at age 68 from cancer, stroke and Covid. I used to be a distance runner, which we, having yrs of self discipline had cultivated into ways of learning to work past all sorts of injuries. That was going to be the plan, to move purposely into working the muscles, tendons and ligaments, with no time left to allot for feeling sorry for myself. Actually it was the nursing staff who seemed depressed. No one was talking to anyone. The very first night in hospital I commandeered a wheelchair with one good arm and leg and tried to go to the bathroom by myself at 2 am in the morning. I had it made too, Got onto the john just fine, but that's when I began tilting like the Leaning Tower of Pizza, I had no feelings on the left that anything of humanity still existed there, and so I fell ignobly onto the floor, after which I crawled back and waited for the night nurse to help me get back into bed. She came in shortly, and panicked when she saw I was missing, then spotted me laying there at her feet. Suddenly we both burst out laughing, but then she left! Not for long. She returned with a bunch of nurses and they all had a good time laughing at my idiocy, and me with my scrunched up face laughing along with them at myself. But here's the rub. What they also had done was given me back my humanity. In their eyes I was a real person again.
Keep making and smashing your goals your attitude is the key, keep on being amazing 😀🙏and know some annoyingly tedious times may happen but they will pass too. Love your attitude 🎉
Both of my grandmas passed away after having a fall. One of them broke her hip and her pain was horrific until she died almost a month later 😢 I've never exercised consistently but I'm determined to start gaining muscle this year (I'm 31 yo). I've never been overweight but I feel weak... Dr. Lyon thank you for the inspiration ❤
Bravo! Great interview. This is my first time hearing Dr. Lyon, but not my last. I'm 66, in phenomenal condition and health, and study the topic daily...always looking for something I missed or simply forgot about. I was a gymnast as a kid, and learned to read my body from an early age. It's very important for older people to assess where they are prior to each workout rather than mindlessly pushing weight (which is a good way to get injured).
I’m in my early 40s, & for most of my life have been a yo-yo dieter, who lost the same 5-10kgs over & over again, by focusing on keeping my calories & carbs low + doing cardio. I’m slim, but once I hit my forties, I got loose, baggy skin with terrible cellulite on my legs. Since aiming for 100g protein per day + adding 3 x 30min dumbbell UA-cam training sessions only 2 weeks ago, I’ve been astounded at the results! I’m eating more, feel less hungry, have lost my terrible sugar cravings - & have seen my body tighten & stomach flatten in ways I never thought possible! Plus I’m loving the resistance training (which I’ve never even tried before in my life). Highly recommend women over 40 giving the approach recommended in this video a try 😊
Thanks for sharing this! I struggled 3 years- former athlete- runner- post menopause and being locked up was horrible weight gain. I just upped my protein a week ago- eat less so filled by breakfast- ie eggs- been diligent at the gym for over a year and no results- adding 3-4 resistance training- push-ups, pull-ups to challenge my body to change metabolism- lost a pound - hoping to continue and adapt this new lifestyle!
@@shorty4872 Sure no problem! The only workouts I’ve been doing for almost a year now are the 30min dumbbell workouts on the channel ‘Lift with Cee’. I do them 3 times per week & that’s all I do. I only lift 1/4 of the dumbbell weight that Cee does, but I’ve still seen results 👍 By combining those workouts with aiming for 100g protein per day, my body has completely changed!! I never thought I could have this body in my 40s & my husband said I look better than ever. I attribute it all to Dr Gabriel Lyon & Lift with Cee!!
@41:41 I'm 67 y/o and out of the blue began falling. My knee would buckle. Initially, went to keto and then carnivore. Upped my protein, and without exercise, within a month that falling stopped. Now, I'm 8 months carnivore and I don't use the rails. Up and down stairs without fear. After listening to several Dr Lyon interviews, I'm going to start exercising. Just need to find the best routine for me.
Wow! How inspired I am! I am 62 yrs old and the last couple yrs feel so doomed about aging. I don't look my age, or act my age lol (everyone tells me that).. But i feel absolutely miserable and can't get motivated to eat correctly, exercise or dust! I have always yo-yoed with my weight my entire life. I am about 5'8 and carry my weight pretty well... Long story short I have lost and gained 80 lbs plus several times throughout my life... My point is, I DEFINITELY KNOW THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN feeling good with exercising and being at a ideal weight...compared to very little exercise and feeling fat as hell! Especially the older I get! Maybe I have been depressed and don't realize it, because since I have turned 60, gradually gained weight, I haven't seen a doc in probably 4 yrs even though I need too... I tend to ignore everything piling up around me, and feel as if I am self sabotaging.. I have had 3 total knee replacements. Beginning at a very young age compared to the average age. My first knee replacement was when I was 35 yrs old... Looking back at my life, I feel as if I have always had some sort of serious bone and joint issues, but no doctor ever got to the root of it.. Now days, even though people around much don't realize it, my bones and joints ache from my toes to my ears... I could start at each joint and describe some issue that I lay awake at night sometimes and wonder why this or that feels like it does.. During the bouts of me eating healthy, almost religiously, I have always ate from all the food groups, protein probably the least amount.. I always focused more on a balanced diet and portion control.. Along with exercise... I weighed and measured every single thing I put in my mouth when eating healthier and trying to lose weight.. 5 yrs ago I lost 80 lbs in 8 months by weighing, measuring and journeling everything I put in my mouth... Basically the weight watchers point system has ALWAYS WORKED FOR ME, and I have always felt it's very well balanced.. The reason why I have never tried a protein based way of life, is because I feel like foods grown from the ground have to be more important then eating animals.. I guess i am way more pro fruits and vegetables, eggs for protein, then I am basing my entire diet on protein alone. Sorry this got so long.. But basically I probably could have simply said, maybe I should be more open minded to trying a protein based diet, because I definitely love meat and high protein foods.. One of the things that always made me veer off the WW based point system was the fact that I love meat and cheese and it was I was missing the most... Maybe some of my bone and joint issues are because protein hasn't always been my biggest focus... Now days I eat horribly... Everything I eat is something easy to grab, along with a glass of wine to wash it down... Some of this is because my husband has always been able to eat anything he wants and has worn the same size clothes for the entire 20 yrs of marriage.. I find it easier to eat what he cooks or to cook what he likes then it is for me prep my own food and eat totally different then him... He drinks while milk with every meal for God's sake! The man has never worried about anything he eats, but he also doesn't eat tons of sweets or sits around over stuffing his face... Except when he does sit down to eat, he is always done before I even make my plate, and he usually has double the amount of food I eat... But i am the one miserable, fat and unhealty...😡.. I am really happy I ran across this podcast, I know I need to help myself, because noone else can... I to never leave the house without makeup, jewelry, and took pride in my appearance... Its probably been 4 yrs since I have put on a drop of makeup, jewelry, did my nails etc.... Depression, lack of protein, laziness??? I am not sure what my problem is.. But for some reason your comment is inspirational to me! Ty
@@twohassles43 ...Glad I said something that sparked hope in you. My husband is like your husband. Wears the same size 32 waist pants since high school. He eats whatever he wants, but hates the feeling of fullness, so he doesn't ever overeat. I tortured my body for years. I didn't feel satisfied until stuffed. Low carb and keto helped a lot, but carnivore made a great difference for me. Recently started watching Sally K Norton videos on oxalates. That's interesting info, for sure. Whatever you decide, I pray you find improvements in your health.
What a fabulous discussion! I sure remember the early 70’s protein fasting was such a spiritual thing to do and to totally clean. It was so counter cultural. I remember having a check up and the doc told me my cholesterol level was so low, not good for a young lady and he wanted me to go home and eat a package of hotdogs! Thank goodness the Zone (low carb) came along! Thank you for bringing this up, it just shows you how it all comes around again.
Wow, this is motivating!!👌 This makes me want to build muscle 💪😮💪it's key for seniors!! ❤!! Wow!! Thank you!! So glad I came across this video/podcast!!
I really like Ben Bikman’s approach - eat protein and fat, in nature they both come as a perfect package and both are essential (amino acids & fatty acids). We need fat also for our hormones, sustained energy, fat soluble vitamins, etc. Protein isn’t the only component to longevity and health.
@@dalee580 What SHOES??! I'm a wanna-be sprinter😃 ...as many times as I've asked this question on various podcasts...no one seems to want to spill the beans😅
Thanks Dhru, appreciate the way you ask questions so we get clarifications. I love her podcast too. This interview was just amazing. It's 7 weeks now that I've increased my protein to at least 30g at a meal and eat between 120g - 140g. I am 69kg, gained 5kg since March this year, slowly I've moved a kilo down, but I feel different internally. My energy levels are better and not experiencing PMS symptoms though still trying to work around the hormonal migraine.
Love you guys. info. I'm in the carnivore camp. 50 years old 5' 7" . 180 to 200g a day protein .been carnivore over a year and a half now. there is no such thing as an essential carbohydrate. Haven't had a veg. or wheat, etc. feel 30 again . have no problem gaining muscle. go to the gym at least 5 days a week. Always have energy and sleep great. Highly active own at tree company. when started was 215 lbs. chubby. Now 185 lbs. working my way to low body % fat. Falling off quick. I love just eating meat , butter, eggs and salt. Every time I have fallen off ( not very often at all ). Had some potatoes once felt like crap for 2 days. don't miss any of it. Cheap easy way of life.
I'm a massage therapist of 15 years and a former aerial acrobat with years of strength, laxity, injuries and working with and training many.....I have been stressing strength for years and always give clients homework. Now at 51 I'm PASSIONATE about strength training esp for older women for hormones, insulin, energy conservation, time efficiency, bone health, mobility, and injury prevention esp for the changes women esp in menopausal years I started eating more protein and for at least 8 years doing more strength exercises (but did strength in general for the last 30 years). Eating more protein hands down helps me retain muscle. At 51 people think i am 30 ish and can still do pull ups and splits. I cant run due to inuries but i find other things i can do. In some ways i feel stronger now
I'm 58 and this is exactly what happened to me! I had always been really strong and done physical work, and I noticed my muscles just disappearing but now I'm on the carnivore diet!
Half way thru, soooo good!!! 61 yo woman, I’ve always been a bicycle rider, I was riding 20 miles day min 5 days/week. Parked my bike a few months ago and started walking 4 miles day/still ride but not like I used to, I FEEL LIKE $1M!!!!! I have some weights that I lift in my kitchen, resistance bands, I just can never say how great I feel!!💪🏼💪🏼🙂👍❤️ And, December 1 makes one year carnivore 🙋🏻♀️🙋🏻♀️
Awesome, so happy for you. Nov.1st will be my first full yr carnivore & walking. So happy for others to feel free happy & healthy. I've lost 50lbs and feel food freedom for the 1st time since my youth.😀
@@johannaj2009 Did you happen to catch Kerry @Homesteadhow last night??? Topic was FIVE different cancers…pronounced TERMINAL…went CARNIVORE and NOW CANCER FREE!!!💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼❤️❤️❤️ Carnivore is the FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH!👏👏👏🙂
Way to go Brenda! I am so inspired by your comment. I ride a bike to work and have been wondering if I should start walking instead like I used to. Am also adding the resistance bands and have been carnivore for about 10 months. Many health improvements but still concerned about my rapid heartbeat doing the most simple things. Although it does seem to be slowly improving? Age 60.
@@AllInCarnivores-mb4sp Thank you for your kind words 😊…..beats fast when doing the simplest things. You know the heart is a muscle and needs to be worked like all muscles…I felt good riding my bike and didn’t have any health issues, I feel GREAT since I started walking, I park my car and see how long I can go without driving it 🤭just, because🤷🏻♀️ I’m so happy people our age are willing to even try carnivore! For ME, I believe walking is all around better for me🙂💪🏼
A friend in her late 50's experienced bells palsy and instead of it taking her down she decided to combat her lack of balance (due to palsy) with olympic lifting. She gained immense skill in heavy lfiting , won competitions, became lean, and is now teaching yoga in her 60's!
Yes great interview, I'm 65 years of age and been following Ted Niaman. I was stage 2 obesity weighted 113 kg drove a bus. I was insulin resistance and type 2 on metforman etc. Did keto low carb and now understand the hole protein energy thing. I brought some bumbells and started resistance training. Waah I could only mane bench pressing 5kg now i have gone to 7kg to 10 kg. I ride 10 to 15 KS a day , but walk first thing for about 3 KS. Sometimes I get passed off cause I'm about 20 % body fat and the scales don't move as fast as I want. I suppose I'm growing muscle ,I also track my macros trying to keep my protein up from fat 2 to 1. I'm now at 82 kg but it's gonna take time as this is a life change
This is such amazing fitness information, especially for me! I have been trying seriously to lose at least 30 lbs and it is incredibly hard no matter what I do, my belly obesity is not moving! Im 57, with some sedentary life style and or special needs. I need all the info I can get! Thank you soo very much to both of you!
The resistance training/ weight lifting is super important. A year ago I started eating more protein but it made me gain more weight and it wasn’t good for me. Excess protein also turns into fat so it’s important to be mindful of the quantity you’re consuming. The key thing is that both resistance training and eating the right amount of protein has to be done at the same time or it won’t work as intended.
Finally - someone speaks to how heavily biased this is regarding protein. I’m all about upping the ante on protein as we age and resistance training (which I do) but she is promoting beef stix and canned chicken as a diet which to me (I’m a therapist with an emphasis on nutrition and eating disorders) it’s really painful to hear bc it sounds like disordered eating in a massive way. It also promotes the go go go produce produce produce lifestyle which is robotic and far from peaceful.
Honestly, dr doesn’t look heathy to me. This is just what I noticed. The glow is missing from face. And she is just 41. I recently did weight loss and the glow on my face is amazing. I am 38 and look like half her age. I used to eat chicken a lot and now I eat vegetables only with legumes protein. Not that I won’t eat chicken again. It just so great feeling on vegetarian diet. I have great endurance. I lost 23kg in 8 weeks. I know you won’t believe. But I did. Plant based diet helped me.
I eat for health and nutrition so i was naturally going more and more plant based as i aged but Dr Lyons single handedly got me back on the animal protein bandwagon and organic cows milk! I work in geriatrics and refuse to accept the standard norms of aging and im convinced protecting ur muscle mass is the secret.
I am so happy to see Dr Lyons on podcasts. She is so positive and uplifting. She gets me excited about caring for myself. Her non dismissal of older adults is refreshing. I laughed when she said “very old” 75! I am 77 and feel so much younger. Three years ago (after listening to a lecture and interviews with Dr Robert Lustig ) I dropped all ultra processed foods, sugar and alcohol. I upped my exercise and extended my walks. I made protein my priority and count it all. I got Dr lyons book and it is a treasure of information. I’m forever grateful to her to discussing getting older in a positive way /-unlike most podcasts with doctors who treat aging as an evil or an option. Wonderful interview. So appreciate the time to hear her real scientific advice given in a way to make you excited to go forward. 🩷😅
Obsessed with her!!!!! I’m 61 female and my my physique looks seriously 30! Dexascan bone density “above expected limits” for sex and age. Please please….rapamycin once a week 3 mg yes 👍🏼 or no?? Attia and so many others say yes but I’m more interested in Dr. Lyon take? Anyone out there know?? Haven’t heard her thoughts anywhere else. Also, oxalate poisoning diagnosis and 7 months detoxing would have certainly have destroyed my health had I not worked out so hard with weights, high protein, and many supplements.
lizmallen3461 Hmm...DR. Attia says -yes' to Rapamycin?' I don't think so. Never heard him making that recommendation, at least. (Being that... there are no long term safety studies on it - for humans - as yet). Although there was series of safety studies on Rapa in the 'Dog Aging Project.', and I think it passed this safety study with flying colors.. But I don't see where Dr. A would recommend taking something like this that has v. few human safety Studies. It just does not sound like something he would do, imo. And you do know, that taking Rapa - for any reason, would have to be by prescription, right? Additionally, you are aware that Rapa interferes with the mTOR pathway(?) - which logically (but not necessarily scientifically speaking (bc it's an unknown), means that it's interference with mTOR would probably interfere w/muscle protein synthesis - but again, no one really knows how that would play out. I just dont recall if Dr. A is taking Rapamycin. I know he was taking prophylactic Metformin, but quit after some new studies arose. By your stating that Dr. A says 'yes' to Rapamycin are you inferring this bc he's taking it(?)...and is he, do you know? I can't recall whether I heard him say he IS taking it, in a recent interview I listened to when the Rapa subject arose. I want to say he is, but I may be 'remembering' that incorrectly. I know that Dr. Brad Stanfield has a keen interest in Rapamycin as a bio-longevity tool, (do you follow him, btw?) But he is holding out for more studies of its safety/efficacy for healthy humans to use prophylactically, for longevity. He actually has a fund going on Patreon to help him finance his own RCT's on humans, for Rapamycin.
Great interview from you guys! Thank you! I can’t wait for the book which I pre ordered. I feel a little upset sometimes about the misinformation about protein ( and exercise) I’ve read over the years as I might have had a better perimenopause and actually throughout my whole life as a female especially those tricky adolescent years. But glad I’m doing it now and the strength training feels amazing and truly like a protective armor when I had been getting ever more fragile physically and mentally and got to thinking it was inevitable. I wonder if Dr. Lyons will also be able to provide some kind of course or possibility for nurses in the future as well as the one mentioned for physicians? (I’m a former geriatric nurse and hoping to return to nursing)
It’s crazy how people lived never ate that much protein and were skinny and lived relatively ok lives . Now we have to track everything and worry about everything
regarding satiety, I believe feeling fed/full/nourished with a basic food (and sense of tasty flavor) comes from mineral density. We eat foods from depleted soils, and food is less nourishing. Whether animal or vegetable, the richer the soil tilth the better tasting and more filling the food is. Animal protein is more likely to have the minerals needed for life, therefore its nourishing. I bought half a grass fed cow from my farm community and the meat was good, but then I ate grassfed beef from a farmers cooperative on Maui and it blew my mind how rich and tasty it was. same diet, different soil. I doubt breed has anything to do with the flavor. also experience the same thing with fresh grown veggies. Maui and Kona coast on Big Island have AMAZING soil and delicious island grown foods.
My thin vegan client at 60 came to me for a year lx each week to help with a myriad of issues. I lost touch after a year then saw her the next year looking vital and muscled. At 62 she got tired of feeling terrible and decided to eat more protein by going back to meat and started cross fit and got into the best shape of her life. Im mostly vegan and am strong, the point is she ate more protein and strength trained and gained muscle at a later age!
Answering Dr. Lyons' question on how to get people to shift their thinking towards aging so that it's non negotiable to train: get people to consider the Don't Die philosophy 😊 Of course, it might be a bit silly to think that true immortality is possible BUT if it was a legit option I think all of us would prioritize our strength, fitness, and nutrition to enjoy life as much as we could for as long we could.
Thank you so much for your positive comments about GLP'S. I was taking Mounjaro until Lily cut me off because I am not DM. I then switched to compounded semaglutide. I lost a total of 54 lbs in 12 months. I have been off tbe meds for 3 months and have lost an additional 7 lbs because I changed my eating and exercise habits.
“People often think of aging as a linear thing; there’s a slow steady decline. In reality that is not what happens. And this is some of the foundational work from Doug Patten Jones where he really highlighted this idea of a catabolic crisis. A fall, a hip break creates this catabolic crisis. The subsequent effect on muscle tissue and muscle strength creates a downward cascade of health and wellness; there’s changes in blood sugar regulation; typically changes in fatty acid oxidation; changes in mitochondria health with loss of skeletal muscle… And then when they are also sedentary… and then when they’re hospitalized and contract an illness, people get pneumonia, it is just a downward spiral. And so it is not that treating the hip injury isn’t important, it’s how do we PREVENT that? How do we prevent injury? And that becomes a really critical component.” - Dr. Gabrielle Lyon 42:30 ---- wow, this is so important! Let's help our elderly (and ourselves) live healthier longer lives. P.S. Feel free to correct my grammar! lol
I was prescribed oxandrolone for 15 years, and it really helped with preserving (and growing) muscle mass, until it was pulled by the FDA a few months ago (after 60 years on the market).
Love this podcast episode. my gym has a body scan and we have found that the scan is inaccurate for people who has an abundance of muscle. The old school pinch test is more accurate, assuming your tester is doing it properly.

I’m all about upping the ante on protein as we age and resistance training (which I do) but she is promoting beef stix and canned chicken as a diet which to me (I’m a therapist with an emphasis on nutrition and eating disorders) is really painful to hear bc it sounds like disordered eating in a massive way and a nightmare for the microbiome. It also promotes the go go go produce produce produce lifestyle which is robotic and far from peaceful. I’m sorry I’m not onboard with the majority of comments on this thread whatsoever. I’ve prepared some tempeh for dinner and I have a workout planned for the morning. Other than that - fluidity and presence can be goals too 🌺
To me, fat is the most satiating macro by far. When I eat just protein I am somewhat satiated but when I eat protein and fat I am very satiated and eat less. I eat 200 grams of high quality animal protein with around 120 grams of fat and less than 50 carbs daily. I have been doing this for 5 years now. My blood work is great and I'm still gaining muscle and losing fat. Im 54.
I had no idea that I was under eating protein. For over 40 years I was focused on trying to lower cholesterol. Done with that. Last night for dinner I had a chicken breast, cottage cheese and an avacado.
My doc said I got diabetes 2 from too much control in my blood . Its difficult this diabetes 3 shots a day & i look so different...anyway i hope we can slow this down in our country. Good info thank you.
My OD in the ‘90’s got me and my husband into a low carb diet. After he retired we got away from that. He wanted us to get 75 g protein per day. That seemed insurmountable, but having lamb chops for breakfast helped. I’m 5’2”, 173 lb, age 73. And I do work out. I’m a singer and need some bulk to make a bigger sound. So I’d rather not go down below 140 lb. I cannot possibleat 140 g protein. I cannot possibly eat six eggs at one sitting. Your plan is not even possible for me. I just started a modified carnivore diet, but unlike other women on carnivore, I can’t eat more than 2 hamburger patties at one sitting (plus a little bacon). My lifestyle is active for a 73-year old; I would never want a busy life like yours. And I will NEVER do HIIT. Or walk. In Chicago, it’s too hot, too cold, or too windy, which would give me a sore throat. I work out with a really special trainer twice a week, with weights. On the same days I take a free class set up for seniors, either yoga, strength or Pilates. On alternate days I have two two-hour voice lessons-that’s my cardio. I move at my own pace and don’t pressure myself. I’m on bp med (Carvedilol) and I have a lot of stress in my life because my husband (76) still works at a very high-pressure job. His stress devolves on me. I have a cortisol tummy. I sleep well (with youtube videos). I think the low-carb carnivore inspired eating plan will work for me; in fact, all cravings for banana-nut bread, muffins and such, are gone as long as I get my next meal when I need it. I just think the quantities you recommend are more than I could handle. And I’ve been doing this for ten days. I think you have to realize that 70+ individuals generally have to tailor-make this diet to their own needs. And I can’t understand why anyone would eat rice or pizza! I’m glad people like you are there, but recommendations cannot be one size fits all.
So we need meat to raise our amino acids and will continue to be hungry until until that need is met, what if we add amino acids to our diet, how would that benefit?
From other sources, not this video: your body can sense levels of fatty acids and amino acids and will continue to want food until you supply it with enough of those.
I work with kidney patients, no need to cut on protein, eat your meat. Vegetables are high in potassium and people with CKD might need to follow low potassium diet if their kidneys are not managing. If your eGFR is low have more careful with the vegetables and eat your meat.
Great talk I have low stomach acid so I have problems with absorption of protein and minerals. Plus, I have a low GFR 49 and I am 71 do weights 3x a week. Visceral fat 6 pounds BMI 23
Two major points which are completely wrong, from my and friends experience 1- Walking is really important along with strength training so we should be walking 8 to 10k everyday 2- Protiens should be taken according to work out and take protein from foods
Why aren't doctors more focused one prevention of falls? I believe Fall risk assessment is done for people over 65, however there is no recommendation about how to prevent it (except weight loss?)
Im chronically on low carb on purpose and when i eat a sweet my glucose goes over 200 and i feel like im dying. This is a new issue for me. Im not sure whats going on. I use a glucose monitor for sekf study.
Americans retiring in the suburbs and islands of the Philippines are living happier and longer due to less stress, less escalators, more walking, more trees, high protein diet, great social connections and low cost of living.
She actually talks a lot of crap. Wonder if she is on the payroll of the meat marketing board. I also wonder if she is a medical doctor or one of these people who has a qualification from one of these correspondence courses. Sounds like it.
@@BexnRNThere are many vegan (or mostly vegan) athletes in the world thriving. I spent 30 years of my life having respiratory and sinus problems. I stopped ingesting animal products about 15 years ago and the breathing problems, asthma attacks and infections subsided. I will never go back. I definitely have a good amount of protein and I take D3 and B12 with no issue.
I don’t understand so what about microbiome with all this protein? Where will I fit in my 30 plants if I eat so much protein ? I hate that every diet guru just talks from their lense and don’t take in the account all the advice that we receive. I just listened to the podcast how we should be at more fiber. Explain to me how eating so much protein will not shift the microbiome towards more inflammatory state. Also if we are the closest genetically to chimpanzees shouldn’t we be eating close to what they eat and that’s primarily vegetarian ?
He also needs to make videos that are 18-30 minutes and not HOURS long. I just read the comments and go on my way. I can’t spend two hours here. No way.

I eat a lot of protein but can’t do totally keto bc I like unsweetened creamer in my coffee and broccoli, and with keto all of that’s off limits. I have lots of belly fat even though my weight is 120 lbs. any advice please
Yes, but you will need a whole team to help you! A nutritionist, a health coach, a trainer and an MD. It's really not that complicated, not sure why she wants to make it that way.
Is it wrong to think that it would be wise - during these conversations - that all carbs aren't lumped together? I've come to understand there is a huge nutritional difference between a potato and a piece of cake. BOTH carbs.....many that are new to these discussions only think of bread, when you say carbs.
I believe they and the audience that follows them universally agree that ultra processed foods and anything with added sugars are out of the equation anyways. Processed foods and added sugars do more extensive damage hormonally to a body than just adding more empty calories.
Everybody knows Bryan Johnson. He is a vegan. He does naturally eat some proteins as part of his plant based diet. But does he eat a lot of proteins as hier suggested? No, not at all! And does he have a super strong muscles and a low body fat? Yes! You can check out his latest strength test results and his body fat percentage if you are interested. It's a myth that people in the western world are deficient of proteins. The real issue is that the average caloric intake in the USA is 3540 kcal/day. A significant part of this surplus of calories are proteins. And the average daily physical activity is less than 20 min. So it's very simple: less calories (if you are overweight), more physical activity! Eat whole food and no need to worry about proteins.
I that’s what every type of diet really should have in common, vegan, carnivore do whatever or in between but all must watch the calories intake, do some cardio and strength train, then tweek. I’m a heavy protein meat eater but also love all food so struggle with calories. I lost 70lb 2 year ago and kept protein high but agree it doesn’t have to be. It’s also what suits hour body. Listen to your body and see how it responds healthwise to your chosen diet
It’s really NOT that simplistic. And please don’t promote veganism! It’s a path towards malnutrition and a slow death. It requires supplementation. There is no reason to be a “vegan”. Ugh.
@@janeschade7875well, a LOT. Do a deep dive into how veganism started. Are you a 7th Day Adventist? Do you support mutilation of children? Carnivore Aurelius online has interesting info. It's a deep rabbit hole. Ex vegan here. No judgement. That aside , start reading the THOUSANDS of positive testimonials from real people who are healing lifelong conditions by eating the way our ancestors did. Do your due diligence and check out Dr. Ken Berry, Dr. Anthony Chaffee, Dr. Shawn Baker, Kelly Hogan, Sandy Norton, .. there are so many now & growing daily. Blessings. 😊

I love listening to this woman talk about our health. I am 70 and in kick ass shape, thankyou Gabrielle.
Lifting weights, eating lots of protein and living a healthy lifestyle is truly the fountain of youth! Especially for us post menopausal women!
Been lifting weights for the last 20 years, turning 60 next month and feeling amazing and stronger than ever! Grateful to my doctor when I turned 40 who told me to start incorporating weights in my workouts!
What type of protein? Does plant base work?
I just increased a week ago to at least 100grams protein- it’s hard I’m not hungry after scrambled eggs for breakfast!
She's gorgeous and her content is powerful.... I hadn't eaten red meat for over 40 years... now that's basically all I eat and my body composition completely changed: I'm a 68 yo F that does resistance training & work F/T as a physical therapist - still... thx Dr L
When I turned fifty, I started working out and eating correctly . In three years, I am the fittest I have ever been. My wife says I don't look like a grandpa anymore. I love the way I look, feel, and can do more things than then a majority of people in my peer group.
This has inspired me! I'm a 57 year old female, and it's been a struggle 😊 time to lift some weights, & eat way more protein 💖
You won’t regret it!!
This guy is extremely skilled at interviewing. He is extracting details from the expert that can lead to a higher % of success for the listener. Well done.
So glad to have found you, Dr, I'm a soon to be 80 yr old stroke survivor who went from a prognosis of having less than a week to live with a hemorrhagic bleed in the thalamic region of my brain & complete left-sided, head to foot paralysis, to 85% totally recovered in 12 wks @ age 62. I walked out in 3 months while looking past individuals who had come in with me around the same time. Many were depressed and had not even begun to rehab yet. Ironically my dad, uncle and kid brother all passed exactly at age 68 from cancer, stroke and Covid.
I used to be a distance runner, which we, having yrs of self discipline had cultivated into ways of learning to work past all sorts of injuries. That was going to be the plan, to move purposely into working the muscles, tendons and ligaments, with no time left to allot for feeling sorry for myself. Actually it was the nursing staff who seemed depressed. No one was talking to anyone.
The very first night in hospital I commandeered a wheelchair with one good arm and leg and tried to go to the bathroom by myself at 2 am in the morning. I had it made too, Got onto the john just fine, but that's when I began tilting like the Leaning Tower of Pizza, I had no feelings on the left that anything of humanity still existed there, and so I fell ignobly onto the floor, after which I crawled back and waited for the night nurse to help me get back into bed. She came in shortly, and panicked when she saw I was missing, then spotted me laying there at her feet. Suddenly we both burst out laughing, but then she left!
Not for long. She returned with a bunch of nurses and they all had a good time laughing at my idiocy, and me with my scrunched up face laughing along with them at myself. But here's the rub. What they also had done was given me back my humanity. In their eyes I was a real person again.
What an inspirational story!
❤❤❤❤
Keep making and smashing your goals your attitude is the key, keep on being amazing 😀🙏and know some annoyingly tedious times may happen but they will pass too. Love your attitude 🎉
Both of my grandmas passed away after having a fall. One of them broke her hip and her pain was horrific until she died almost a month later 😢 I've never exercised consistently but I'm determined to start gaining muscle this year (I'm 31 yo). I've never been overweight but I feel weak... Dr. Lyon thank you for the inspiration ❤
Bravo! Great interview. This is my first time hearing Dr. Lyon, but not my last. I'm 66, in phenomenal condition and health, and study the topic daily...always looking for something I missed or simply forgot about. I was a gymnast as a kid, and learned to read my body from an early age. It's very important for older people to assess where they are prior to each workout rather than mindlessly pushing weight (which is a good way to get injured).
I’m in my early 40s, & for most of my life have been a yo-yo dieter, who lost the same 5-10kgs over & over again, by focusing on keeping my calories & carbs low + doing cardio. I’m slim, but once I hit my forties, I got loose, baggy skin with terrible cellulite on my legs. Since aiming for 100g protein per day + adding 3 x 30min dumbbell UA-cam training sessions only 2 weeks ago, I’ve been astounded at the results! I’m eating more, feel less hungry, have lost my terrible sugar cravings - & have seen my body tighten & stomach flatten in ways I never thought possible! Plus I’m loving the resistance training (which I’ve never even tried before in my life). Highly recommend women over 40 giving the approach recommended in this video a try 😊
Thanks for sharing this! I struggled 3 years- former athlete- runner- post menopause and being locked up was horrible weight gain. I just upped my protein a week ago- eat less so filled by breakfast- ie eggs- been diligent at the gym for over a year and no results- adding 3-4 resistance training- push-ups, pull-ups to challenge my body to change metabolism- lost a pound - hoping to continue and adapt this new lifestyle!
Well done! Would you mind sharing the workouts you were doing please?
@@shorty4872 Sure no problem! The only workouts I’ve been doing for almost a year now are the 30min dumbbell workouts on the channel ‘Lift with Cee’. I do them 3 times per week & that’s all I do. I only lift 1/4 of the dumbbell weight that Cee does, but I’ve still seen results 👍 By combining those workouts with aiming for 100g protein per day, my body has completely changed!! I never thought I could have this body in my 40s & my husband said I look better than ever. I attribute it all to Dr Gabriel Lyon & Lift with Cee!!
I have a goal in 2.5 years to be the strongest power lifter I can be 🏋️♀️🙏❤️ at 70 years of age
How are you now?
@41:41 I'm 67 y/o and out of the blue began falling. My knee would buckle. Initially, went to keto and then carnivore. Upped my protein, and without exercise, within a month that falling stopped. Now, I'm 8 months carnivore and I don't use the rails. Up and down stairs without fear. After listening to several Dr Lyon interviews, I'm going to start exercising. Just need to find the best routine for me.
Wow! How inspired I am! I am 62 yrs old and the last couple yrs feel so doomed about aging. I don't look my age, or act my age lol (everyone tells me that).. But i feel absolutely miserable and can't get motivated to eat correctly, exercise or dust!
I have always yo-yoed with my weight my entire life. I am about 5'8 and carry my weight pretty well... Long story short I have lost and gained 80 lbs plus several times throughout my life... My point is, I DEFINITELY KNOW THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN feeling good with exercising and being at a ideal weight...compared to very little exercise and feeling fat as hell! Especially the older I get!
Maybe I have been depressed and don't realize it, because since I have turned 60, gradually gained weight, I haven't seen a doc in probably 4 yrs even though I need too... I tend to ignore everything piling up around me, and feel as if I am self sabotaging..
I have had 3 total knee replacements. Beginning at a very young age compared to the average age. My first knee replacement was when I was 35 yrs old... Looking back at my life, I feel as if I have always had some sort of serious bone and joint issues, but no doctor ever got to the root of it..
Now days, even though people around much don't realize it, my bones and joints ache from my toes to my ears... I could start at each joint and describe some issue that I lay awake at night sometimes and wonder why this or that feels like it does..
During the bouts of me eating healthy, almost religiously, I have always ate from all the food groups, protein probably the least amount.. I always focused more on a balanced diet and portion control.. Along with exercise... I weighed and measured every single thing I put in my mouth when eating healthier and trying to lose weight.. 5 yrs ago I lost 80 lbs in 8 months by weighing, measuring and journeling everything I put in my mouth... Basically the weight watchers point system has ALWAYS WORKED FOR ME, and I have always felt it's very well balanced..
The reason why I have never tried a protein based way of life, is because I feel like foods grown from the ground have to be more important then eating animals.. I guess i am way more pro fruits and vegetables, eggs for protein, then I am basing my entire diet on protein alone.
Sorry this got so long.. But basically I probably could have simply said, maybe I should be more open minded to trying a protein based diet, because I definitely love meat and high protein foods.. One of the things that always made me veer off the WW based point system was the fact that I love meat and cheese and it was I was missing the most...
Maybe some of my bone and joint issues are because protein hasn't always been my biggest focus... Now days I eat horribly... Everything I eat is something easy to grab, along with a glass of wine to wash it down...
Some of this is because my husband has always been able to eat anything he wants and has worn the same size clothes for the entire 20 yrs of marriage.. I find it easier to eat what he cooks or to cook what he likes then it is for me prep my own food and eat totally different then him... He drinks while milk with every meal for God's sake!
The man has never worried about anything he eats, but he also doesn't eat tons of sweets or sits around over stuffing his face... Except when he does sit down to eat, he is always done before I even make my plate, and he usually has double the amount of food I eat... But i am the one miserable, fat and unhealty...😡.. I am really happy I ran across this podcast, I know I need to help myself, because noone else can... I to never leave the house without makeup, jewelry, and took pride in my appearance... Its probably been 4 yrs since I have put on a drop of makeup, jewelry, did my nails etc.... Depression, lack of protein, laziness??? I am not sure what my problem is..
But for some reason your comment is inspirational to me! Ty
@@twohassles43 ...Glad I said something that sparked hope in you. My husband is like your husband. Wears the same size 32 waist pants since high school. He eats whatever he wants, but hates the feeling of fullness, so he doesn't ever overeat. I tortured my body for years. I didn't feel satisfied until stuffed. Low carb and keto helped a lot, but carnivore made a great difference for me. Recently started watching Sally K Norton videos on oxalates. That's interesting info, for sure. Whatever you decide, I pray you find improvements in your health.
Love Dr Lyon. She is the best! Great episode.
What a fabulous discussion! I sure remember the early 70’s protein fasting was such a spiritual thing to do and to totally clean. It was so counter cultural. I remember having a check up and the doc told me my cholesterol level was so low, not good for a young lady and he wanted me to go home and eat a package of hotdogs! Thank goodness the Zone (low carb) came along! Thank you for bringing this up, it just shows you how it all comes around again.
Wow, this is motivating!!👌 This makes me want to build muscle 💪😮💪it's key for seniors!! ❤!!
Wow!! Thank you!! So glad I came across this video/podcast!!
I really like Ben Bikman’s approach - eat protein and fat, in nature they both come as a perfect package and both are essential (amino acids & fatty acids). We need fat also for our hormones, sustained energy, fat soluble vitamins, etc. Protein isn’t the only component to longevity and health.
Turned my life around 2 yrs ago work out almost every day i love it
When I went to an animal based diet at the age of 62, I suddenly had a great desire to lift weights and now sprint like I never have before
May I ask your shoe choice...if your sprints are on-foot.
I keep asking this Q, no answers from anyone as yet.
I am in great shape as a roofer. I tried sprinting one day. I was sore for three days. I was really surprised. Sprinting is a great exercise.

Good point Gabrielle made at the end about medications for obesity and medications to gain muscle.
Thanks Dhru, appreciate the way you ask questions so we get clarifications. I love her podcast too. This interview was just amazing. It's 7 weeks now that I've increased my protein to at least 30g at a meal and eat between 120g - 140g. I am 69kg, gained 5kg since March this year, slowly I've moved a kilo down, but I feel different internally. My energy levels are better and not experiencing PMS symptoms though still trying to work around the hormonal migraine.
Love you guys. info. I'm in the carnivore camp. 50 years old 5' 7" . 180 to 200g a day protein .been carnivore over a year and a half now. there is no such thing as an essential carbohydrate. Haven't had a veg. or wheat, etc. feel 30 again . have no problem gaining muscle. go to the gym at least 5 days a week. Always have energy and sleep great. Highly active own at tree company. when started was 215 lbs. chubby. Now 185 lbs. working my way to low body % fat. Falling off quick. I love just eating meat , butter, eggs and salt. Every time I have fallen off ( not very often at all ). Had some potatoes once felt like crap for 2 days. don't miss any of it. Cheap easy way of life.
I'm a massage therapist of 15 years and a former aerial acrobat with years of strength, laxity, injuries and working with and training many.....I have been stressing strength for years and always give clients homework. Now at 51 I'm PASSIONATE about strength training esp for older women for hormones, insulin, energy conservation, time efficiency, bone health, mobility, and injury prevention esp for the changes women esp in menopausal years
I started eating more protein and for at least 8 years doing more strength exercises (but did strength in general for the last 30 years). Eating more protein hands down helps me retain muscle.
At 51 people think i am 30 ish and can still do pull ups and splits. I cant run due to inuries but i find other things i can do.
In some ways i feel stronger now
I'm 58 and this is exactly what happened to me! I had always been really strong and done physical work, and I noticed my muscles just disappearing but now I'm on the carnivore diet!
That will give you plenty of quality protein. Eat the whole animal, not just the muscle meats.

61 yo woman, I’ve always been a bicycle rider, I was riding 20 miles day min 5 days/week. Parked my bike a few months ago and started walking 4 miles day/still ride but not like I used to, I FEEL LIKE $1M!!!!! I have some weights that I lift in my kitchen, resistance bands, I just can never say how great I feel!!💪🏼💪🏼🙂👍❤️
And, December 1 makes one year carnivore 🙋🏻♀️🙋🏻♀️
Awesome, so happy for you. Nov.1st will be my first full yr carnivore & walking. So happy for others to feel free happy & healthy. I've lost 50lbs and feel food freedom for the 1st time since my youth.😀
Carnivore 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻

Way to go Brenda! I am so inspired by your comment. I ride a bike to work and have been wondering if I should start walking instead like I used to. Am also adding the resistance bands and have been carnivore for about 10 months. Many health improvements but still concerned about my rapid heartbeat doing the most simple things. Although it does seem to be slowly improving? Age 60.
@@AllInCarnivores-mb4sp Thank you for your kind words 😊…..beats fast when doing the simplest things.

For ME, I believe walking is all around better for me🙂💪🏼
I absolutely love this episode!! ❤ Dhru, you ask the best questions. Thank you
A friend in her late 50's experienced bells palsy and instead of it taking her down she decided to combat her lack of balance (due to palsy) with olympic lifting. She gained immense skill in heavy lfiting , won competitions, became lean, and is now teaching yoga in her 60's!
Yes great interview, I'm 65 years of age and been following Ted Niaman. I was stage 2 obesity weighted 113 kg drove a bus. I was insulin resistance and type 2 on metforman etc. Did keto low carb and now understand the hole protein energy thing. I brought some bumbells and started resistance training. Waah I could only mane bench pressing 5kg now i have gone to 7kg to 10 kg. I ride 10 to 15 KS a day , but walk first thing for about 3 KS. Sometimes I get passed off cause I'm about 20 % body fat and the scales don't move as fast as I want. I suppose I'm growing muscle ,I also track my macros trying to keep my protein up from fat 2 to 1. I'm now at 82 kg but it's gonna take time as this is a life change
The doctor is gorgeous. We need her full care routine.
This is such amazing fitness information, especially for me! I have been trying seriously to lose at least 30 lbs and it is incredibly hard no matter what I do, my belly obesity is not moving! Im 57, with some sedentary life style and or special needs. I need all the info I can get! Thank you soo very much to both of you!
Very intelligent podcaster and his very insightful questions. Only thing I disagree is importance of good fats which was totally underplayed!!
The resistance training/ weight lifting is super important. A year ago I started eating more protein but it made me gain more weight and it wasn’t good for me. Excess protein also turns into fat so it’s important to be mindful of the quantity you’re consuming. The key thing is that both resistance training and eating the right amount of protein has to be done at the same time or it won’t work as intended.
Finally - someone speaks to how heavily biased this is regarding protein. I’m all about upping the ante on protein as we age and resistance training (which I do) but she is promoting beef stix and canned chicken as a diet which to me (I’m a therapist with an emphasis on nutrition and eating disorders) it’s really painful to hear bc it sounds like disordered eating in a massive way. It also promotes the go go go produce produce produce lifestyle which is robotic and far from peaceful.
@therapeuticeating You've made very interesting points..
Honestly, dr doesn’t look heathy to me. This is just what I noticed. The glow is missing from face. And she is just 41. I recently did weight loss and the glow on my face is amazing. I am 38 and look like half her age. I used to eat chicken a lot and now I eat vegetables only with legumes protein. Not that I won’t eat chicken again. It just so great feeling on vegetarian diet. I have great endurance. I lost 23kg in 8 weeks. I know you won’t believe. But I did. Plant based diet helped me.
Thank you both for this wonderful interview. Super informative.
VERY helpful thank you for your time!!!
I eat for health and nutrition so i was naturally going more and more plant based as i aged but Dr Lyons single handedly got me back on the animal protein bandwagon and organic cows milk! I work in geriatrics and refuse to accept the standard norms of aging and im convinced protecting ur muscle mass is the secret.
I am so happy to see Dr Lyons on podcasts. She is so positive and uplifting. She gets me excited about caring for myself. Her non dismissal of older adults is refreshing. I laughed when she said “very old” 75! I am 77 and feel so much younger. Three years ago (after listening to a lecture and interviews with Dr Robert Lustig ) I dropped all ultra processed foods, sugar and alcohol. I upped my exercise and extended my walks. I made protein my priority and count it all. I got Dr lyons book and it is a treasure of information. I’m forever grateful to her to discussing getting older in a positive way /-unlike most podcasts with doctors who treat aging as an evil or an option.
Wonderful interview. So appreciate the time to hear her real scientific advice given in a way to make you excited to go forward.
🩷😅
Obsessed with her!!!!! I’m 61 female and my my physique looks seriously 30! Dexascan bone density “above expected limits” for sex and age.
Please please….rapamycin once a week 3 mg yes 👍🏼 or no?? Attia and so many others say yes but I’m more interested in Dr. Lyon take? Anyone out there know?? Haven’t heard her thoughts anywhere else.
Also, oxalate poisoning diagnosis and 7 months detoxing would have certainly have destroyed my health had I not worked out so hard with weights, high protein, and many supplements.
lizmallen3461
Hmm...DR. Attia says -yes' to Rapamycin?' I don't think so.
Never heard him making that recommendation, at least.
(Being that... there are no long term safety studies on it - for humans - as yet).
Although there was series of safety studies on Rapa in the 'Dog Aging Project.', and I think it passed this safety study with flying colors..
But I don't see where Dr. A would recommend taking something like this that has v. few human safety Studies. It just does not sound like something he would do, imo.
And you do know, that taking Rapa - for any reason, would have to be by prescription, right?
Additionally, you are aware that Rapa interferes with the mTOR pathway(?) - which logically (but not necessarily scientifically speaking (bc it's an unknown), means that it's interference with mTOR would probably interfere w/muscle protein synthesis - but again, no one really knows how that would play out.
I just dont recall if
Dr. A is taking Rapamycin. I know he was taking prophylactic Metformin, but quit after some new studies arose.
By your stating that Dr. A says 'yes' to Rapamycin are you inferring this bc he's taking it(?)...and is he, do you know?
I can't recall whether I heard him say he IS taking it, in a recent interview I listened to when the Rapa subject arose. I want to say he is, but I may be 'remembering' that incorrectly.
I know that Dr. Brad Stanfield has a keen interest in Rapamycin as a bio-longevity tool, (do you follow him, btw?)
But he is holding out for more studies of its
safety/efficacy for healthy humans to use prophylactically, for longevity.
He actually has a fund going on Patreon to help him finance his own RCT's on humans, for Rapamycin.
Dhru and family, Team : A GREAT 2024!
This is the best ! I am 53.
Great interview from you guys! Thank you! I can’t wait for the book which I pre ordered. I feel a little upset sometimes about the misinformation about protein ( and exercise) I’ve read over the years as I might have had a better perimenopause and actually throughout my whole life as a female especially those tricky adolescent years. But glad I’m doing it now and the strength training feels amazing and truly like a protective armor when I had been getting ever more fragile physically and mentally and got to thinking it was inevitable.
I wonder if Dr. Lyons will also be able to provide some kind of course or possibility for nurses in the future as well as the one mentioned for physicians? (I’m a former geriatric nurse and hoping to return to nursing)
She is BRILLIANT
It’s crazy how people lived never ate that much protein and were skinny and lived relatively ok lives . Now we have to track everything and worry about everything
regarding satiety, I believe feeling fed/full/nourished with a basic food (and sense of tasty flavor) comes from mineral density. We eat foods from depleted soils, and food is less nourishing. Whether animal or vegetable, the richer the soil tilth the better tasting and more filling the food is. Animal protein is more likely to have the minerals needed for life, therefore its nourishing. I bought half a grass fed cow from my farm community and the meat was good, but then I ate grassfed beef from a farmers cooperative on Maui and it blew my mind how rich and tasty it was. same diet, different soil. I doubt breed has anything to do with the flavor. also experience the same thing with fresh grown veggies. Maui and Kona coast on Big Island have AMAZING soil and delicious island grown foods.
I have always resisted tracking. Anything ! Man. I will give it a try !,
My thin vegan client at 60 came to me for a year lx each week to help with a myriad of issues. I lost touch after a year then saw her the next year looking vital and muscled. At 62 she got tired of feeling terrible and decided to eat more protein by going back to meat and started cross fit and got into the best shape of her life. Im mostly vegan and am strong, the point is she ate more protein and strength trained and gained muscle at a later age!
Answering Dr. Lyons' question on how to get people to shift their thinking towards aging so that it's non negotiable to train: get people to consider the Don't Die philosophy 😊
Of course, it might be a bit silly to think that true immortality is possible BUT if it was a legit option I think all of us would prioritize our strength, fitness, and nutrition to enjoy life as much as we could for as long we could.
Thank you so much for your positive comments about GLP'S. I was taking Mounjaro until Lily cut me off because I am not DM. I then switched to compounded semaglutide. I lost a total of 54 lbs in 12 months. I have been off tbe meds for 3 months and have lost an additional 7 lbs because I changed my eating and exercise habits.
Thanks Dhru! ✨️
“People often think of aging as a linear thing; there’s a slow steady decline. In reality that is not what happens. And this is some of the foundational work from Doug Patten Jones where he really highlighted this idea of a catabolic crisis. A fall, a hip break creates this catabolic crisis. The subsequent effect on muscle tissue and muscle strength creates a downward cascade of health and wellness; there’s changes in blood sugar regulation; typically changes in fatty acid oxidation; changes in mitochondria health with loss of skeletal muscle… And then when they are also sedentary… and then when they’re hospitalized and contract an illness, people get pneumonia, it is just a downward spiral. And so it is not that treating the hip injury isn’t important, it’s how do we PREVENT that? How do we prevent injury? And that becomes a really critical component.” - Dr. Gabrielle Lyon 42:30
---- wow, this is so important! Let's help our elderly (and ourselves) live healthier longer lives. P.S. Feel free to correct my grammar! lol
I was prescribed oxandrolone for 15 years, and it really helped with preserving (and growing) muscle mass, until it was pulled by the FDA a few months ago (after 60 years on the market).
Love this podcast episode. my gym has a body scan and we have found that the scan is inaccurate for people who has an abundance of muscle. The old school pinch test is more accurate, assuming your tester is doing it properly.
@daynaonaga8559 what type of body scan do they use?
From elite athlete to dying of obesity BACK to real health. Below is my life's work distilled. 🎉
Recovery:
Inclined Sleep Therapy is free & an ancient practice
CPAP
Exercise:
*Rebounder* proven in the 1970s as the most efficient exercise still. Unique health benefits.
Food:
Lean poultry, onions, & sweet potatoes replace unhealthy calories
Dentist gum cleaning
Supplements:
Threonate magnesium, NAC, vit.D, creatine, taurine, *methylene blue-not with antidepressants*
TENS for soreness & vagus nerve
Their's more but this's most of it.
Thank you. I knew most of this except for the inclined sleep. Will have to look that up.

❤ Habit stacking.. interesting!
To me, fat is the most satiating macro by far. When I eat just protein I am somewhat satiated but when I eat protein and fat I am very satiated and eat less. I eat 200 grams of high quality animal protein with around 120 grams of fat and less than 50 carbs daily. I have been doing this for 5 years now. My blood work is great and I'm still gaining muscle and losing fat. Im 54.
I had no idea that I was under eating protein. For over 40 years I was focused on trying to lower cholesterol. Done with that. Last night for dinner I had a chicken breast, cottage cheese and an avacado.
Great interview
My doc said I got diabetes 2 from too much control in my blood . Its difficult this diabetes 3 shots a day & i look so different...anyway i hope we can slow this down in our country.
Good info thank you.
That makes no sense. What do you mean?
This is not just for those over 40!
My OD in the ‘90’s got me and my husband into a low carb diet. After he retired we got away from that. He wanted us to get 75 g protein per day. That seemed insurmountable, but having lamb chops for breakfast helped. I’m 5’2”, 173 lb, age 73. And I do work out. I’m a singer and need some bulk to make a bigger sound. So I’d rather not go down below 140 lb. I cannot possibleat 140 g protein. I cannot possibly eat six eggs at one sitting. Your plan is not even possible for me. I just started a modified carnivore diet, but unlike other women on carnivore, I can’t eat more than 2 hamburger patties at one sitting (plus a little bacon). My lifestyle is active for a 73-year old; I would never want a busy life like yours. And I will NEVER do HIIT. Or walk. In Chicago, it’s too hot, too cold, or too windy, which would give me a sore throat.
I work out with a really special trainer twice a week, with weights. On the same days I take a free class set up for seniors, either yoga, strength or Pilates. On alternate days I have two two-hour voice lessons-that’s my cardio. I move at my own pace and don’t pressure myself. I’m on bp med (Carvedilol) and I have a lot of stress in my life because my husband (76) still works at a very high-pressure job. His stress devolves on me. I have a cortisol tummy. I sleep well (with youtube videos).
I think the low-carb carnivore inspired eating plan will work for me; in fact, all cravings for banana-nut bread, muffins and such, are gone as long as I get my next meal when I need it.
I just think the quantities you recommend are more than I could handle. And I’ve been doing this for ten days. I think you have to realize that 70+ individuals generally have to tailor-make this diet to their own needs. And I can’t understand why anyone would eat rice or pizza!
I’m glad people like you are there, but recommendations cannot be one size fits all.
This Lady looks amazing 🌹
So we need meat to raise our amino acids and will continue to be hungry until until that need is met, what if we add amino acids to our diet, how would that benefit?
From other sources, not this video: your body can sense levels of fatty acids and amino acids and will continue to want food until you supply it with enough of those.
@@kimberlyf4888 thank you for your response, so of I supplement with BCAAS, will it help build a reserve and help control hunger?
@@loriwestern9103
Yes. Also, Google some of this. Google is your friend :)
Please... in your videos... address CKD and animal vs plant protein. Which is better for CKD!!??
I work with kidney patients, no need to cut on protein, eat your meat. Vegetables are high in potassium and people with CKD might need to follow low potassium diet if their kidneys are not managing. If your eGFR is low have more careful with the vegetables and eat your meat.
How about dancing? Is that OK for like a sprint dancing to really upbeat, fast song.
Dance is a good cardio exercise. It is still beneficial to lift some weights.
Yes, I do ' Bands ' !!! ... but not enough..
Great talk I have low stomach acid so I have problems with absorption of protein and minerals. Plus, I have a low GFR 49 and I am 71 do weights 3x a week. Visceral fat 6 pounds BMI 23
I can trap-bar lift 200 lbs and have a trainer, what is the next best thing I can do?
Two major points which are completely wrong, from my and friends experience 1- Walking is really important along with strength training so we should be walking 8 to 10k everyday 2- Protiens should be taken according to work out and take protein from foods
“Doctor “ Lyon is very attractive and would follow every word of hers
Why aren't doctors more focused one prevention of falls? I believe Fall risk assessment is done for people over 65, however there is no recommendation about how to prevent it (except weight loss?)
Im chronically on low carb on purpose and when i eat a sweet my glucose goes over 200 and i feel like im dying. This is a new issue for me. Im not sure whats going on. I use a glucose monitor for sekf study.
Americans retiring in the suburbs and islands of the Philippines are living happier and longer due to less stress, less escalators, more walking, more trees, high protein diet, great social connections and low cost of living.
People in the Philippines have durian and coconuts 😍
She lost me with how low can you go with body fat. Women who lose too much body fat lose their periods, have hair loss, etc.
She actually talks a lot of crap. Wonder if she is on the payroll of the meat marketing board. I also wonder if she is a medical doctor or one of these people who has a qualification from one of these correspondence courses. Sounds like it.
@@avacash7631what has she said that’s “crap”?
Nothing wrong with a little body fat especially as you get older.
@@HerbertFlowers-l3h visceral fat is never good. Not what she means.
@@BexnRNThere are many vegan (or mostly vegan) athletes in the world thriving. I spent 30 years of my life having respiratory and sinus problems. I stopped ingesting animal products about 15 years ago and the breathing problems, asthma attacks and infections subsided. I will never go back. I definitely have a good amount of protein and I take D3 and B12 with no issue.
I don’t understand so what about microbiome with all this protein? Where will I fit in my 30 plants if I eat so much protein ? I hate that every diet guru just talks from their lense and don’t take in the account all the advice that we receive. I just listened to the podcast how we should be at more fiber. Explain to me how eating so much protein will not shift the microbiome towards more inflammatory state. Also if we are the closest genetically to chimpanzees shouldn’t we be eating close to what they eat and that’s primarily vegetarian ?
Need timestamps in ur episodes
He also needs to make videos that are 18-30 minutes and not HOURS long. I just read the comments and go on my way. I can’t spend two hours here. No way.
I was doing all of this but now have a herniated disk. Where to from here?
Hi,, it’s any chance to hear this in ESPAÑOL.. Please!!!!🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
I’m 59 post menopausal, strength training for the 2nd time in my life but it’s more difficult at this age. I eat a lot of protein but can’t do totally keto bc I like unsweetened creamer in my coffee and broccoli, and with keto all of that’s off limits. I have lots of belly fat even though my weight is 120 lbs. any advice please
I have never heard Doctor Lyons push keto. In her other videos she has suggested
30-50 gr protein/
So, do what everybody says? Exercise and don’t eat processed food and eat a balanced diet. That’s some groundbreaking knowledge there.
Yes, but you will need a whole team to help you! A nutritionist, a health coach, a trainer and an MD. It's really not that complicated, not sure why she wants to make it that way.
Define “balanced.”
We should feed our children 'eggs' for breakfast... in schools instead of cereal or baked goods. Start the kids off with protein.
America has the worst diet. Processed fatty and sugary foods are overconsumed😢😢😢😢
Is it wrong to think that it would be wise - during these conversations - that all carbs aren't lumped together? I've come to understand there is a huge nutritional difference between a potato and a piece of cake. BOTH carbs.....many that are new to these discussions only think of bread, when you say carbs.
I believe they and the audience that follows them universally agree that ultra processed foods and anything with added sugars are out of the equation anyways. Processed foods and added sugars do more extensive damage hormonally to a body than just adding more empty calories.
Simple carbs are different than complex carbs. Just like simpleton's are different than complex people
Are peanuts part of protein like just roasted peanuts or not
Everybody knows Bryan Johnson. He is a vegan. He does naturally eat some proteins as part of his plant based diet. But does he eat a lot of proteins as hier suggested? No, not at all! And does he have a super strong muscles and a low body fat? Yes! You can check out his latest strength test results and his body fat percentage if you are interested. It's a myth that people in the western world are deficient of proteins. The real issue is that the average caloric intake in the USA is 3540 kcal/day. A significant part of this surplus of calories are proteins. And the average daily physical activity is less than 20 min. So it's very simple: less calories (if you are overweight), more physical activity! Eat whole food and no need to worry about proteins.
I that’s what every type of diet really should have in common, vegan, carnivore do whatever or in between but all must watch the calories intake, do some cardio and strength train, then tweek. I’m a heavy protein meat eater but also love all food so struggle with calories. I lost 70lb 2 year ago and kept protein high but agree it doesn’t have to be. It’s also what suits hour body. Listen to your body and see how it responds healthwise to your chosen diet
Your totally right she talks a load of crap.
@@avacash7631you keep saying that lol.
It’s really NOT that simplistic. And please don’t promote veganism! It’s a path towards malnutrition and a slow death. It requires supplementation. There is no reason to be a “vegan”. Ugh.
@@BexnRN Vegans gonna Vegan.
Meat has always been king!
This woman said walking is not be considerd as exercising. Will never listen to her again!
Did she say bison bars? At 1.13ish???
❤
What about yams and sweet potato?
She is one hell of a beautiful 40 year old women
Or how about peanut butter?
Who has this kind of money? Health coach - nutrition coach - courses - books.
No they aren't, they are horrible questions. Especially if I don't like the answer
I’m a Whole Foods plant based eater I felt this video comes up way short with reaching out to the my vegan community 😞
i’m sorry. Your comment just made me laugh out loud! i never do that! 😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂
You've been lied to!
@@Lillyxx_plays what have I been lied to about?
@@janeschade7875well, a LOT. Do a deep dive into how veganism started. Are you a 7th Day Adventist? Do you support mutilation of children? Carnivore Aurelius online has interesting info. It's a deep rabbit hole. Ex vegan here. No judgement. That aside , start reading the THOUSANDS of positive testimonials from real people who are healing lifelong conditions by eating the way our ancestors did. Do your due diligence and check out Dr. Ken Berry, Dr. Anthony Chaffee, Dr. Shawn Baker, Kelly Hogan, Sandy Norton, .. there are so many now & growing daily. Blessings. 😊
People say, "I want/need to lose weight", because the word "fat" is a very ugly, negative word.
Looks like Vivek
You can do something to fix your body
Does collagen protein in my coffee count as a first meal?
It does not. She doesn't count collagen in the daily protein take. Second, even if she did, the amoount would change your coffee into paste.
Please make timestamps for God sake. Like other well-known podcasters are doing.
