I am 84 and no overweight no diabete etc. I accepted symptoms like neurological degradation, lack of apetite and lowered energy levels as pat of ageing. Few months ago I started 16/8 intermittant fasting and 64 hours fasting once in 21 days. I am now brimming with energy and enthusiasm levels of my twenties. Because I had no weight to shed I aeat 3 times during the eating window of 8 hrs. My diet is just low-carb with 10gms of cold pressed coconut oil and moderate amounts of nuts, sprouts and locally grown fruits. My lipid levels, calcium, D vitamin, Vit B12 levels are perfect.
Wonderful. Digestion and the gut takes a greater portion of blood flow than even the kidneys or the brain. Letting the guy rest after a meal powerfully modulates brain activity

I did a strict keto diet for close to 2 years. It was tough but both sides my family have a history of bad diabetes and I was prediabetic. It's been 4 years now and I went back to eating some wheat products. Mainly sourdough bread did I bake myself. It sits in my refrigerator for 3 to 4 days fermenting. Ill eat All kinds of vegetables including root vegetables. More cheese the Frenchman. A lot more nuts than I used to eat. I make and eat kaffir every day. Lots of eggs lots of mushrooms that I grow myself. And meat mainly chicken and pork with occasional beef. For the most part stay away from sugar, rice, and potatoes. Since going off keto my weight has maintained for over 2 years. I'm at the weight and waist I was in my twenties. Without being hungry and without having to having to restrict my calories. I get hungry around noon and then around 4 and then around 8 just like doctor gundries suggestion. Other than that it's water and nuts when I get hungry if I'm up late.. I'll be turning 70 in 2 months. All my health markers are back to normal. No longer pre diabetic. And my acid reflux that I struggled with for over 20 years went away in 2 weeks of starting the keto diet. I check my keytones around once a month with a with a blood meter. Although I am not in clinical ketosis anymore I do have keytones in my system it seems at all times. Even in my yearly lab test it comes up with keytones in my system. Metabolic flexibility that's the key.
Keep on kickin-that Dead-cat, it's got nine lives, and it seems you do too! You probably have 30 more good years to go, sir. Congratulations, you've done very well for yourself :-)
Yep Keto worked for me too and now can be more flexible but if I feel sick its usually from eating a toxic plant. I need at least 50% ruminant fats to keep my nervous system calm. With ME if I had to pick one diet it is hands down as described in The Carnivore Code.
The Keto diet is an excellent way to reduce weight and reverse T2 diabetes in a quick time. I used the carb restriction and time restriction diet to reduce my weight and reverse my diabetes. I also increased my animal protein intake to maintain my health and prevent muscle loss. I did not go on the Keto high animal fat part of the diet. Since I got to my target weight I eat carbs , animal fats , fruits and nuts in moderation but I monitor my weight to plus 3 pounds of my target weight. I still stick to my 1 meal a day, 4 hour feeding window. Then I go back to my modified Keto to knock back my weight gain. Then I go back to my eating carbs,sugars , fruits , butter and cheese etc in moderation. What I watch is the scale to monitor and keep my weight in check.I usually take about 3 weeks to totally knock back my weight and about 4 months to send it up by my acceptable 3 pounds weight gain.. Keto is a fast and sure way to reduce weight and diabetes but without the animal fat consumption. Fat is energy and my overweight is all the fat I already have - this is my reasoning for dropping fat from my adapted Keto diet plan.
I love the fact that you’re true scientists and that you can admit that you have taken a wrong turn and get back on the trail to help people really respect that!

57 and on a 100% carnivore ketogenic diet. Loving it. I feel like I'm in my early 30s and look like I'm in my early 40s. This has been a new lease on life gor me. Arthritis gone, no more allergies, chronic injuries healed, lost 46lbs, mental fog gone, improved memory, no more depression, etc. I eat whenever I am hungry, eat until satiated, and count no macros ever. My bloodwork is amazingly healthy. Zero fiber and perfect bowle movements.
@@Blessed69666 I went cold turkey a month ago from being a vegey for 30 yrs then Pescatarian for a decade! Day 3/4 had some aches incl headache but upped my Iodine & Vit D/K2 and sipped Electrolytes in 1.5 lits water all day & the flu disappeared within 24hrs! Dropped 12lbs & 4% body fat in 1st 3 weeks while stuffing my face with BBBE, Lamb & Salmon! Oh joy 😂 ps also did 18/6 IF - easy because simply not hungry..
My mother died a slow death from osteoporosis in 2018. She lived with me her last five years. I worked two jobs while taking care of her and the day job was at a we buy gold shop I ran alone 40 to 50 hours a week. I had a lot of time to try to learn something that could help my mother. She ate very little and had fits six or eight times a year where she would vomit and have diarrhea so bad we would call an ambulance and with strong drugs they would stop it. What I eventually learned was that osteoporosis is not something you can reverse and that prevention is key! I’ve learned a great deal from listening to these two fellas and many other UA-cam personalities! Some bullet points for those looking to help themselves, cut sugar, eat in a window fasting as long as possible, cut industrial oils from your diet, plants are your friends, remove plant lectins from your diet, remove grains and gluten from your diet! Gluten is sneaky... they put it in everything! Lots of greens, lots of olive oil, lots of berries, mct oil and deep water small fish that don’t live long. Take cold showers often! Take hot baths Or saunas! Meditation is good! Walking or HIIT weight training whatever exercise you can stand at your age… Exercise, fasting, cold showers… And eating food that isn’t poisoning you all seem to have the same effects
For a year I did magnesium baths as often as possible 4-6 times a week. I did this to avoid menopause symptoms. It worked wonderfully! A side benefit was that my bone density increased. It is reversible
Yes I agree with Beth but I am presuming your mom didn’t want to change her ways. Supplements are essential for reversing osteoporosis like Youngevity 90 for life. I also believe cutting out meat/ animal protein to a very small part of the diet is important too.

It will be interesting to see how this plays out. I think this strategy is excellent for someone already on the keto diet rather than a way for more people to access the benefits of ketones. I’ll never forget the way I felt when I woke up producing ketones (myself)… absolutely no pain (or friction of any kind) in my joints…and brain (True!) so there is something to be said for achieving it first on your own with your own system.
Yes! I'm really bothered by the lack of respect shown to him by those that disagree with him. I like him a lot and am grateful I have free access to him podcasts. He has taught me a lot! And he walks the walk and it shows.
I was pleased to hear that many of the things I've adopted in the past couple years are in the list of 7. My reinterpretation of a couple of the points in this episode are: 1) Whenever consuming plant-based carbs, do one or both of the following: 1a) Eat whole foods that naturally include fiber 1b) Eat fermented foods like sauerkraut, kimchi, natto... 2) Whenever consuming dairy, eat fermented foods like greek yogurt, Icelandic skyr, kefir, crème fraiche, sour cream, real cheese...
The most influential factors to live a long healthy and fulfilled life is to: 1) Have little/ to no stress in your life. 2) Get 8 hours quality sleep each night. 3) Have no money worries. 4) Don't eat processed foods. 5) Cook for yourself from scratch. 6) Do regular hard exercise.
Thank you both for admitting mistakes in the past ,my dad is 92 years young and no meds at all ,his mom lived till 96 no meds no docs,our food has changed in the last few decades to make us sick so the drug administration can thrive!!!!! So the drug and food admin in this country is thriving in the richest country in the world ,yet we are the sickest ,over weight diabetic heart problems than anyone else in the world,stop and think what the heck is going on!!!
Minute 30: I personally 100% trust someone who’s able to tell “you know, I was wrong” because those are the people who will give you the best advice they have in hand at the time, and not forcing dogmas and cult style catch phrases into others.
Well…how would you know when they are right when they are constantly correcting themselves? 😂 Not saying this new info of ketones would be wrong or right because who knows, but he is swlling his new book with this new amazing thing 😉
@@tuukkaylitalo3527 not particularly interested in the books tbh. But if I have to choose I’d definitely listen to someone who has no problem to openly say “I was wrong” than to someone who follows a religious like approach to science. But hey, do whatever feels better for you, that’s the great thing about freedom of choice 🤷🏻♂️ I guess the best thing is always try it and see if it works. For me I personally follow different bits of advice from different sources - if it works great - if it doesn’t I change it
This is a new era of doctors, not like before where they were so proud to be right all the time (and they were not) Now, we see how this specilized guys admit when they are wrong and fix it on the way. I am so lucky to find this kind of people. People like them are my real Heroes, not just doctors but people who share valiaable information and admit on the way when they are wrong. Great video, thanks for sharing I am learning!!!!!
most of the docs that are willing to speak the truth that the gov is not selling have already had their successful practices and can afford to retire or do a side hustle that may get them shunned in the woke health care system.
The way our bodies work on a molecular level is so amazing! Brings to mind this Bible verse: "I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well." (Psalm 139:14)
I am carnovore as of April 22. It is now April 23 and what I have restricted is my inflammation in my joints. When I have restricted is my asthma. I have restricted my 20+ year lower G.I. issues. Healed.
My diet is Bulletproof stuff, Keto, and Plant based. I feel like sticking to one strict type of diet defeats our biology. Our bodies seem to like flexibility and variety and only REAL food. The Keto Code definitely adds more useful information. I just wish Dr. Gundry didn't come across so much like a snake oil salesman. When I look at his web site & supps and email teasing for new products and his biases between his writings and his web store it's difficult not to feel a bit of sleazy there.
It is my understanding that the blue zones tend to be tradition-oriented communities of people who have thrived from generation to generation by eating a simple, limited variety of unprocessed foods, but they are also characterized by healthy life habits which include daily rituals, mindfulness, prayer or meditation, natural exercise, regular exposure to outdoors and a strong commitment to community. I have always found Dr. G's hyper-emphasis on self-produced supplements, made from rare ingredients gathered from remote corners of the world - a bit suspect. Not saying that these products could not be beneficial, but critical thinking suggests our bodies are basically adapted to run on generally available sources of nutrition, even if those vary in season and locale. The notion that we have to consume expensive cocktails of laboratory-produced supplements in order to thrive strikes me as overwrought and frankly, imbalanced. To be clear, I am firmly pro-free enterprise. I do not begrudge scientists fruits of their research. Having said that, I think that nutritional research at it's best is seeking to find ways of improving health for all people, not just the well-heeled. This is especially important given the rising epidemic of obesity, which is putting the masses of American children at SUBSTANTIAL RISK for diseases and reduced lifespans. This is a concern is often on the forefront of Dr. P's discussions. For example, Dr. P has made special efforts to try and encourage the Biden administration to take into account the latest research regarding the harm of dietary sugars. I respect him for that.
@@merriemerrie7378 i understand both sides. I dont think chemical nutrients are smart, but as humans we dont always take advantage of the smartest nutrition available, so we have a lot of improvement to do on the way we eat. We are far from where we should be. So I see nothing against eating specialozed foods or nutrition. For some it can br a life saver. Well I didnt check his website but anyways in general have nothing against specialized foods or nutrition
I had to wean my son from my milk early. I did it by giving him organic goat's milk with just a few drops of organic maple syrup. He liked it and it seems that it was actually good for him even though I gave him carbs in it. That was 30 years ago before I heard of any MCT or ketones.
No judgment from me or anyone else I think for realizing a mistake. The greatest part of it is to correct the mistake and like both of you sharing a new paradigm with your patients/public. I appreciate both of you!
Thank-you both for questioning and changing your approaches to health and nutrition as the science evolves. Most importantly thank-you for sharing the results with all of us 👍
The science has always been there , the problem is when someone twists it to push their agenda - the science of keto was never to be used for selling ketogenic diets but that’s how it was interpreted by so many
I’m thankful that you both have open minds enough to admit you were wrong in the past and you have learned otherwise and you continue to learn and share new information.
Strangely enough I see Dr Gundry as a prophet of sorts as well as I see it in his development and understanding and that glimmer in his eye and hunger for more knowledge for helping other people.
What do you think of sunrise and sunset relative to red light? Also grounding/ earthing? We need to get. Back to when we had better health as children, walking barefoot on earth. But I'm older than you guys at age 80. I'm grounding to ease inflammation. Thank you God for summer. And special thanks to you great physicians who love continuing education. 😍
Eating a low carb animal food, nuts/seeds, vegetable based diet is not difficult at all. Real whole nutritious food speaks for itself. Feed your body real food and you health will improve. Eating this way naturally leads to ketosis, low insulin, smaller eating window, larger fasting window and less overall inflammation. Not complicated, really!
I totally agree. Today I am making keto coconut ice cream in my little ice cream maker and keto almond bases waffles in my new condition but cheap used store waffle maker. Think I’ll make a little ice cream sandwich with 2 1/4 pc waffles.😀
I completely agree with your statement..."eating this way naturally leads to ketosis". I found a lot of inaccuracies and exaggerations in his book such as, having to eat 80% fat to remain in ketosis. It's not the high fat intake that keeps you in ketosis, it's the reduced amount of carbs. I feel he downplayed this in his book and really only honed in on the fat, which firstly...keto is generally only 70% fat and secondly, it is suggested to reduce your fat intake once you have reached fat adaptation. Rant over 🧐 lol (for now ;)
What an amazing enlightening completely beneficial source of USEFUL information. I cannot thank you both enough for this, I just got of of hospital nearly died back-to-back Covid. I have been ill for over 2 months. I was in hospital dying for almost 3 weeks. I knew some about the gut bacteria but there is so much conflicting info, but one of my alternative care doc had already began teaching me about the plants. I was seeking how to start the fasting a Safeway. I am implementing all these methods right way and will keep everyone informed as to my progress. Thank you so much. May God bless you all as I work on protecting and feeding my gut bacteria
Keep it rolling! We learn and challenge ourselves everyday. If it wasn't for you both and some others we would still be getting sicker and sicker. Thank you
This is exactly what Dr Berg has been calling “healthy keto” for ages. TONS of salad, moderate fat (unless you have very low body fat - then more healthy fats), and moderate protein.
@Water~Man I wrote that before viewing, and it was excessively restrictive. I looked up his book on the topic, and many were saying his science is confusing and sparse. I'm not taking his advice.
Confused, if fiber is so great for us why do we eliminate it and why do we not have the plumbing to process it i.e, couple of stomachs? Is it necessary or not because the carnivores are pooping just fine without it.
Simply amazing!! These two Jyst know their stuff and they are great at making their points with other and are right on point with the latest content about digestive issues as well as other things. Don’t miss this!
Great episode.Thanks. I've heard multiple "experts" claim that most people take days to get into ketosis. So, Dr Gundry is saying all you have to do is take some MCT oil and that will get you there?
I went two months on strict carnivore. I lost 22 pounds but my triglycerides went through the roof. I’m now on month three and am more on keto now looking to get my bloodwork to a satisfactory place. I’m also still doing intermittent fasting eating once every 24 hours… This is a most enlightening conversation.
Fantastic, keep up the great work! Build muscle too 💪 Make sure you also get an insulin test, not just glucose/A1C though. You have to see what your pancreas does; bare minimum fasting insulin (optimal is under 7, lower is better). Best test is a "2 hour Insulin Glucose Challenge test" or GTIR. Way back in the 80s Dr Kraft was already measuring both and finding hidden diabetics! "Occult diabetes"
You need to research dr. Cywes and his explanation on protein intake, etc. Basically leave omad and fasting for later (a year even, at least 6 months). Try and spred you protein intake into at least two sittings, do not have it all at once. Otherwise your liver will be converting the excess protein you are taking into sugar, or eventually store it as tryglicerides. Folks do make this mistake, but at the beginning of carnivore you have to focus on eating more fat than protein, for a while. That is the key part in terms of what your body is going through when you get rid of carbs - it's adopting to large fat intake with no carbs involved. You have to let it go through this process of fat adaptation, and experiment (omad, fasting) only later on.
From what I have read one of the problems that can occur with doing the carnivore diet is in fact eating too much protein and not enough fat. The excess protein is converted to glucose, and this raises insulin preventing proper fat adaptation. This may have been the issue with your triglycerides being high. Also, if you had a fatty liver, you will see that all being released. Give your body adequate time to repair before panicking about blood tests. I am doing keto Mediterranean style and will wait for at least 9 months before doing blood tests to check markers for improvement.
Dr Gundry, I have been listening to you for about 4 years. And in this video you look younger than when I first started listening to you! This video has motivated me to follow this plan, as it seems realistically easier than other plans… i.e. something I can actually do without going crazy. I still worry about Lectins and have questions about them. I want to buy the specific olive oil you recommend. I’m 74, and I have debilitating IBS, very little energy, and chronic pain. Thanks to you, I’m looking forward to losing weight, feeling better, having more energy, and living a longer, more active life. I will let you know of my success.
I would say the following: un-coupling here is used in the sense of what you might do with a passenger train. If you want a longer train to go to two different destinies, you can uncouple or divide the train somewhere close to the middle. Now each of these trains can go their own seperate ways. In any case, you mentioned in episode 129 of your podcasts that Ancle Keys was on the wrong track making out fats as the culprit of becoming overweight. So, having noticed then that Professo Dr. Jutkin was correct and together with Dr. Lustig brought out a book about (refined) sugar, I stopped utilizing a vegetarian lifestyle and switched to a intermittent fasting one because I noticed nutrients were missing from a balanced diet. The next thing I want to try out is adding sources of vitamin A, D³ and K², so I will be targetting sardines with skin and bones, cod liver and (MK) cheese.
Eat like someone 200 years ago. Look up any picture of those people. They may have had other issues but obesity is definitely not the major problem. Maybe not a caveman but be smart about it. Whole everything. All modern industrial made things have stripped the fiber out. I'm just 1 week into my journey and have never felt better in the past 10 years. This total flip of the food pyramid has blown my mind. Veg oils are posion. I've taken those out for this week. I have been doing intermittent fasting 6 out of 7 days this week. Amazing feeling and tightened the belt up one whole notch. Eating lots of butter and lard. Lots of fiber naturaly. Adding butter to boost the satisfaction. I have zero cravings for any sugar, chips or fried anything. I love it. Thank you all who have dug into these things for the past 50 years. So sorry we have to deal with the corruptions of sugar, corn and veg oils.
You cant get fat when you are starving. Only nobles/wealthy were fat 200 years ago, both because of an abundance of food and the lack of physical exercise.
how would you know if a living person has the most uncoupled mitochondria? and would that be mitochondria of all the various body cells? Also, would it be the case that this idea of the mitochondria working less but multiplying themselves in response to ketones be purely theoretical.... or have studies been done? Not sure what multiplying means... a longer mitochondria in each cell? Two + separate mitochondria in a cell? Not a science person here-- so help!
I appreciate these two physicians very much and look forward to seeing what they discover as I increase my fiber and decrease my red meat. Thank you, gentlemen.
Thank goodness for honest doctors! I have a neuromuscular problem. 6th nerve palsy. Regenerating that nerve and keeping it sound is my biggest hope! Keep on keeping on docs! All the best to you! (Retired Respiratory Therapist)
Keto is good for carb addicts.. Read sugar. I can't stop eating carbs.. Period.. So till I am confident that I am in control of the addiction., Keto is besti
@@sarahshade1523 GUNDRY! Lol! Not hungry! Close, but no cigar for you! Or were you trying to be funny? If so, that's not the way -> to misspell the man's name! No!
Does this partially explain why the Mediterranean diet which is rich in carbs, in general is linked to longitivity & good health. Could it be connected to the MCT in the goat & sheep milk products they consume?
As someone that has a history of reflux issues (I've had fundoplication surgery), that has been drinking diluted acv for about half my life (it relieves bloating) and now that's on a light keto diet eating plenty of fermented foods etc why on earth I still suffer from so much bloating? Strawberries, tomatoes, red meat, sometimes high fat, basically anything at any given moment.. Why is my microbiome seemingly not in better shape? What is the explanation for a life of bloating and gas, even when diet is as clean as it can be?
@@joecamel6835it's definitely an option / last resort. I have a feeling my case might baffle the scientists quite a bit! (and potentially many others too). I think we are searching high and low for these hard and fast rules, but what's to say each individual's GI tract isn't as unique as the individual? 🤷🏻♂️ We do need better methods of GI analysis. Something that isn't as invasive as scopes that can actually feedback on what is truly going on in our guts and what is likely to work and not work.
Fascinating, another reason to avoid an early breakfast!!. Usually do 18 hours IF, will aim for a little longer... Thanks for all of the latest information, have just picked up both of your books. Cheers
No need to aim longer regularly. Gundry states there’s not much benefit shown in a smaller than 6 hour eating window. Perhaps occasional long fast though?
Or how about not eat anything at night and instead eat a big early breakfast. I find it kind of silly and pointless to eat before going to bed anyway when that's the time you're body needs the least amount of energy. Whereas early in the morning, if you do eat, even if it's a big meal, one's metabolism will be fastest and they'll be most energetic so that's the most forgivable time to get away with eating the most amount of food.
I think the eating window can be whatever works best for you and your lifestyle-it’s the amount of time spent fasting that’s most important. I agree that it would be better for me to start earlier and end by 7:00, but I work until 5:00 and go to the gym after work, so that’s nearly impossible for me. If I was single, I could make this work for me by having a small meal before the gym.
Not sure if these two doctors are purposely being misleading or do not understand that you can eat huge quantities of fiber on a keto diet. Making a judgement on keto diets being problematic based on blood work from three patients is incredibly poor science.
interesting...my ancestors lived well into their 90's and over 100....they lived in the Carpathian Mountains of Eastern Europe and did raise goats and sheep, for meat, milk, cheese, and of course wool. Chickens and ducks too but cows were not that available as they are expensive to keep but oxen can pull plows. Their sweets came from natural pure honey and fruits in season and dried for the winter. Cabbage and cole crops were most often the vegetable and root crops like those things they call "super-food" now, beets! All with LOADS of garlic and onions. Vinegar was another staple of their diet. Our soups are even made with vinegar and eaten cold(little animal fat, just starchy veggies(beans and potatoes), flour as thickener and vinegar...with the standard garlic and onions!. High carb, high acid, cold soup that is the best thing on a hot sweaty day.....chills you and surprisingly will keep you feeling cool...unlike just a glass of ice water. There is something to seriously to look at with fermented and acidic foods. The ancient way to preserve foods. When I ate greasy fatty pork, if I had some sour soup or sauerkraut with it, I NEVER had any indigestion and actually felt fuller with less.
It is so confusing for someone, like me, who has Hoshimotos. Supposedly the plant-based foods are better for us as humans but they can be really terrible for Hoshimotos sufferers. Our digestive system is inflamed by nightshades, cruciferous, dark green leafy veggies and more. Personally, I love and miss most vegetables but the gut pain I get when eating them just isn't worth it. Old fashioned Keto is the only thing that seems to have healed by gut, leaves me pain and ache-free, and has greatly increased my strength and energy levels. I worry all the time that I'm not eating enough fruits and veg but I don't want to go back to how I was feeling before starting traditional keto. What do you say about people like me???????

Hi thanks for the great video. It's very informative and helpful to understand our body. And the language used is more or less understandable for layman. But what I found most interesting is at around 14:35 he said "who ever designed this". Is he implying something? And if yes, what? For me, that is the most interesting part of the whole conversation. Thanks very much for your comment and understanding. Kind Regards Sudkhet
I did a keto diet, sustainable meats and a lot of vegetables. I had long covid then got a concussion (have had a few), but I lost a lot of muscle and was underweight. So I had to go off the diet and began to improve slowly, but faster. I did the diet one other time and began having neurological symptoms, I felt post-concussive, was dizzy, and having a hard time standing. So went to the Dr, since my blood glucose was so low, I had to go off. I also bonk hard during exercise if I haven’t eaten much and can barely stand. If I don’t eat breakfast, I barely get any work done. I can fast evening to morning, but not during the day.
What I struggle with is that there are some really great scientists out there who disagree about the whole gut microbe/fibre issue. Paul Mason, Robert Cywers, Ken Berry and Zoe Harcombe to name but a few. We came down out of the trees and differentiated from our monkey cousins to eat red meat. It was the ancestral change that moved us forward. This is fact. Vegetables and fruit as they exist today just did not exist. A high carbohydrate diet definitely did me severe damage in the 80 s and 90s and I was not obese. The mixed messaging in medicine and science is so distressing and doing huge amounts of damage via the Internet. There is a study that shows everything and anything if you look hard enough. Everyone has an agenda.
I agree, if science were anywhere close to fact based how on earth can they justify so many different alleged "educated" opinions/research findings??? Biases and self-serving conflicts of interests/agendas are the only explanation, which is terrifying.
@@jr.6199 Of course, as long as the research is done without conflicts of interest, corruption and/or reckless hidden agendas. Unfortunately integrity in scientific research is becoming rarer by the minute, and we can no longer afford to treat every newest research article as fact. Reading over the peer-reviewed research papers ourselves, cross-referencing them, and verifying who funded them is key to separating the wheat from the chaff, (so to speak), and is why it's so vital that information be free and accessible.
We didnt come from monkeys.God created man and HE created monkeys.JESUS is the WAY the TRUTH and the LIFE.Pray to HIM to SAVE your souls.HE WILL SAVE and ANSWER YOU ALL.
Have watched this video twice and still do not understand what Dr Gundry was trying to say. His thoughts sometimes seemed disconnected and incomplete. His speech was slower and faintly slurred. I hope it was just wine at lunch ??
Just a fabulous hour! Thank you so much for such great information..at seventy and riding the health train since I was 20 and as each decade in the health industry changes I get so excited to apply it to my lifestyle! Thank you so much!
Why do you guys try so hard to not say ATKINS or Dr. ATKINS, who took a huge professional backlash( that includes you) , to introduce the ATKINS ( Keto) way of eating. I remember the last upswell of professional backlash….now everyone is on HIS gravy train.
We need to eat more plants/dietary fiber, was never an Atkins statement. MCT, or discussing medium chain triglycerides as a mytochondrial uncoupler was never in the conversation.
Because atkins is high fat, high protein, plus u can have more then 50 grams of carbs aday. Keto is 50 grams of carbs aday, high fat, low protein. Very different focuses and results. Atkins doesn’t put u in deep ketosis or uncouple your mitochondria as a area of focus
Is the basic conclusion from this video essentially eat clean, not too much fat or protein in any unusual amounts and take MCT oil? (and btw.. Is coconut MCT oil OK?)
Wow!! what an action packed interview, like discovering a nugget of Gold every Minute. I am 72 now and at around 64 I felt the knee of an exponential curve towards sickness, I had blind spots appearing in my vision (nb: identical and variable in BOTH eyes) I got dizzy by just looking up, my gut was putrid etc. I said to myself "DO OR DIE" so AT THAT TIME I researched (Thank you Dr Perlmutter) and discovered ketosis. In hindsight I would have been smarter to take a more balanced approach but I panicked and I went so hard out into ketosis I would not even let tap water on or enter my body (I captured rain water), my glucose/ketone ratio plummeted below 1:1, luckily for me I was not on any medication. I went through a rough transition including brain fog etc then suddenly just like Dr Gundry mentioned it was like my brain "Woke Up" and my body was so energized I could walk flat stick uphill without even having to breath through my mouth. I lost 25kg in three weeks from over 95kg to less than 70kg. I thought I had cachexia and decided to abort if I went below 65kg. Then I got a major cramp in my leg which was painful and would not let go for a long 5mins ( probably a Magnesium deficiency). So I aborted and re-stabilized to my new condition. Now from this interview it's clear to progress further I need to share the workload by producing MORE mitochondria to SHARE the load, what an awesome discovery (thank you BOTH!! for this interview). Next goal "METABOLIC FLEXIBILITY" without panicking. (Thank you Dr Gundry).and thank you BOTH for such an amazing interview. Interestingly I am also fascinated by Wim Hoff the ice man and have started a WARM wash COLD rinse shower regime.
I listened, and I still have no idea of "How to Enter Ketosis without Restrictive Diets." I guess I need a PHD in biochemistry to make sense of how to navigate through the jungle of all these many proposals of what to eat. The more I listen to all the doctors and PHD's on UA-cam, the more confused I get, and I just feel like giving up hope of figuring out what to buy at the grocery store...
Minute 36:00 to 38:00 is the most helpful info. Athletes who ate the same amount of calories had very different results depending on when they ate. The ones who restricted their eating between the hours of 1:00 P.M. to 8:00 P.M. had weight loss and gained muscle mass. Also minute 43:00 tells us that fiber eaten in fermented foods is more beneficial to your gut biome.
Sadly, Dr Gundry may be right but the fact that he sells his products and books makes me wonder if there is any bias in what he says and what he doesn’t. Perhaps he is very honest but I am cautious.
No you don’t need a phd. Polyphenols are blueberries. So eat more of those. Intermittent fasting means don’t eat until you absolutely have to. Make the time between meals as long as you can prolong it. Eat fiber. That means lots of vegetables. Eat fermented foods. That means eat Korean kimchi-and also sauerkraut and maybe some kombucha tea. I hate the sauerkraut so it will be tea for me. Eat Parmesan cheese and other hard cheeses. Shine a red light on yourself. The only one I didn’t quite understand was the #6, cold exposure. Can someone explain that to us please?
Everyone raves about MCT oil. I ordered MCT oil capsules from Amazon and started taking them. In less than two days I had some type of allergic reaction and developed pain and inflammation in my joints. As a result I had to stop taking the MCT oil. Maybe the dosage was way too high, I don’t know.
Dr Ben Bilkin says the reason the animal studies showing restricting their caloric intake increasing life span 30% was because they didn’t count the animals that died from infection . If the animals in the study that died because of infection get counted too, then the data showed no longevity advantage to eating low calorie diets.
Another study found that calorie restriction showed no benefit when calories were spread out across the entire day. It turns out that the only advantage to calorie restriction is the intermittent fasting component. But the benefits of intermittent fasting can be obtained without calorie restriction.
24:00 wnat specific markers of epithelial cell dysfunction are you speaking of exactly? They likely aren't getting enough magnesium ,ehich is where the stickiness mostly comes from
It makes no difference to me what in grains cause me a problem. I get arthritis symptoms when I eat them. I've done n=1 experiments to know it conclusively. Arthritis was severe enough to leave deformed knuckles. Symptoms return if I eat grains. I don't need to know the minutiae of grain. Just need to avoid it. Rheumatologist was no help. He just said take more ibuprofen. Said I could take way more than the directions call for.😒
I think he acknowledges its power for health recovery but because some people find it hard to restrict carbs either for themselves or for someone they're caring for (for example children or the elderly) then it's very helpful to have some specific tools such as fasting, MCT oil, vinegar, fermented foods to use independently of keto.
For the first time, scientists have shown that mitochondria - the “powerhouses” of cells - are crucial for aging, after finding that >"removing"< mitochondria* from human cells reduced levels of markers for cellular aging, triggering a process of rejuvenation. Now I'm 😕 confused
Very interesting info. Always learn something new. Red light for macular degeneration? I wonder what my eye doctor will say about that. Would love to try it
A beautiful interview.Thank you!! Can you say something about IHHT / Hypoxy Therapie in regard to mitochondrial function? Could IHHT really be beneficical for mitochondrial function? Or is it more efficiant to simply do 2 hours aerobic endurance sports instead of IHHT?
Could you talk about oxalates and how we can lower this in out diet while also getting good nourishment and lots of polyphenols? Also, what is the skin supplement that Dr Gundry takes please? 💊
I am half into the conversation and it seems that they are speaking in some special language that only THEY understand. I am fairly knowledgeable in keto and low carb way of eating but they are not making it easy! Thanks for the video anyway!
I undersood everything thanks to watching many excellent videos from dr Stan Ekberg. He explains everything in a detail in a way that is easy to understand.
I am 84 and no overweight no diabete etc.
I accepted symptoms like neurological degradation, lack of apetite and lowered energy levels as pat of ageing. Few months ago I started 16/8 intermittant fasting and 64 hours fasting once in 21 days. I am now brimming with energy and enthusiasm levels of my twenties. Because I had no weight to shed I aeat 3 times during the eating window of 8 hrs. My diet is just low-carb with 10gms of cold pressed coconut oil and moderate amounts of nuts, sprouts and locally grown fruits. My lipid levels, calcium, D vitamin, Vit B12 levels are perfect.
GREAT❤
😅
i add 2 tablespoons of coconut oil in my green tea and drink before bed....
burns fat while sleep , lubricates and heals the colon...
Wonderful. Digestion and the gut takes a greater portion of blood flow than even the kidneys or the brain. Letting the guy rest after a meal powerfully modulates brain activity
Thank you so much for sharing this experience! 💚

I have no idea what any of that meant but I'm sure you know that already .. Eye roll
And up goes my cholesterol.
I did a strict keto diet for close to 2 years. It was tough but both sides my family have a history of bad diabetes and I was prediabetic. It's been 4 years now and I went back to eating some wheat products. Mainly sourdough bread did I bake myself. It sits in my refrigerator for 3 to 4 days fermenting. Ill eat All kinds of vegetables including root vegetables. More cheese the Frenchman. A lot more nuts than I used to eat. I make and eat kaffir every day. Lots of eggs lots of mushrooms that I grow myself. And meat mainly chicken and pork with occasional beef. For the most part stay away from sugar, rice, and potatoes. Since going off keto my weight has maintained for over 2 years. I'm at the weight and waist I was in my twenties. Without being hungry and without having to having to restrict my calories. I get hungry around noon and then around 4 and then around 8 just like doctor gundries suggestion. Other than that it's water and nuts when I get hungry if I'm up late.. I'll be turning 70 in 2 months. All my health markers are back to normal. No longer pre diabetic. And my acid reflux that I struggled with for over 20 years went away in 2 weeks of starting the keto diet. I check my keytones around once a month with a with a blood meter. Although I am not in clinical ketosis anymore I do have keytones in my system it seems at all times. Even in my yearly lab test it comes up with keytones in my system. Metabolic flexibility that's the key.
Keep on kickin-that Dead-cat, it's got nine lives, and it seems you do too! You probably have 30 more good years to go, sir. Congratulations, you've done very well for yourself :-)
May I know your HBA1C number now
Yep Keto worked for me too and now can be more flexible but if I feel sick its usually from eating a toxic plant. I need at least 50% ruminant fats to keep my nervous system calm. With ME if I had to pick one diet it is hands down as described in The Carnivore Code.
The Keto diet is an excellent way to reduce weight and reverse T2 diabetes in a quick time.
I used the carb restriction and time restriction diet to reduce my weight and reverse my diabetes.
I also increased my animal protein intake to maintain my health and prevent muscle loss.
I did not go on the Keto high animal fat part of the diet.
Since I got to my target weight I eat carbs , animal fats , fruits and nuts in moderation but I monitor my weight to plus 3 pounds of my target weight.
I still stick to my 1 meal a day, 4 hour feeding window.
Then I go back to my modified Keto to knock back my weight gain. Then I go back to my eating carbs,sugars , fruits , butter and cheese etc in moderation.
What I watch is the scale to monitor and keep my weight in check.I usually take about 3 weeks to totally knock back my weight and about 4 months to send it up by my acceptable 3 pounds weight gain..
Keto is a fast and sure way to reduce weight and diabetes but without the animal fat consumption.
Fat is energy and my overweight is all the fat I already have - this is my reasoning for dropping fat from my adapted Keto diet plan.
Hi, good job! How do you measure your own keytones ? what type of blood meter do you use and how can I get one? Ty
I love the fact that you’re true scientists and that you can admit that you have taken a wrong turn and get back on the trail to help people really respect that!

57 and on a 100% carnivore ketogenic diet. Loving it. I feel like I'm in my early 30s and look like I'm in my early 40s. This has been a new lease on life gor me. Arthritis gone, no more allergies, chronic injuries healed, lost 46lbs, mental fog gone, improved memory, no more depression, etc. I eat whenever I am hungry, eat until satiated, and count no macros ever. My bloodwork is amazingly healthy. Zero fiber and perfect bowle movements.

My mother died a slow death from osteoporosis in 2018. She lived with me her last five years. I worked two jobs while taking care of her and the day job was at a we buy gold shop I ran alone 40 to 50 hours a week. I had a lot of time to try to learn something that could help my mother. She ate very little and had fits six or eight times a year where she would vomit and have diarrhea so bad we would call an ambulance and with strong drugs they would stop it. What I eventually learned was that osteoporosis is not something you can reverse and that prevention is key! I’ve learned a great deal from listening to these two fellas and many other UA-cam personalities! Some bullet points for those looking to help themselves, cut sugar, eat in a window fasting as long as possible, cut industrial oils from your diet, plants are your friends, remove plant lectins from your diet, remove grains and gluten from your diet! Gluten is sneaky... they put it in everything! Lots of greens, lots of olive oil, lots of berries, mct oil and deep water small fish that don’t live long. Take cold showers often! Take hot baths Or saunas! Meditation is good! Walking or HIIT weight training whatever exercise you can stand at your age… Exercise, fasting, cold showers… And eating food that isn’t poisoning you all seem to have the same effects
For a year I did magnesium baths as often as possible 4-6 times a week. I did this to avoid menopause symptoms. It worked wonderfully! A side benefit was that my bone density increased. It is reversible
Yes I agree with Beth but I am presuming your mom didn’t want to change her ways. Supplements are essential for reversing osteoporosis like Youngevity 90 for life. I also believe cutting out meat/ animal protein to a very small part of the diet is important too.
How do you remove lectins from plants?
@@bethsmith8720 Great tip! How did you learn to do this?
@@ihartsacto Youngevity is fantastic. Well worth listening to talks by Dr. Wallach.
Thank you two for being REAL DOCTORS and telling us the truth. Changing your opinions as more science becomes available gives me hope.
The science has always been there - it’s just been interpreted in the wrong way purely for profit….for 20 years!
I have been involved in fusion physics for tooo many years and amplified the propaganda to everyone that free power was just down the horizon knowing full well it was a hoax. Gundy is just another researcher with no empirical basis to propagate his opaque theories. I think Gundy is just another quack for makin a fast buck .
It will be interesting to see how this plays out. I think this strategy is excellent for someone already on the keto diet rather than a way for more people to access the benefits of ketones. I’ll never forget the way I felt when I woke up producing ketones (myself)… absolutely no pain (or friction of any kind) in my joints…and brain
(True!) so there is something to be said for achieving it first on your own with your own system.
Agree, almost 5 years keto IF here, and like u said, no pain at all
totally agree.
Agree, yes I'd like to see someone achieving therapeutic ketosis just using red light, cold plunges and polyamines +phenols and not restricting carbs.
It’s nice to see another doctor interviewing Dr. Gundry, who isn’t attacking him.
Yes! I'm really bothered by the lack of respect shown to him by those that disagree with him. I like him a lot and am grateful I have free access to him podcasts. He has taught me a lot! And he walks the walk and it shows.
I was pleased to hear that many of the things I've adopted in the past couple years are in the list of 7. My reinterpretation of a couple of the points in this episode are:
1) Whenever consuming plant-based carbs, do one or both of the following:
1a) Eat whole foods that naturally include fiber
1b) Eat fermented foods like sauerkraut, kimchi, natto...
2) Whenever consuming dairy, eat fermented foods like greek yogurt, Icelandic skyr, kefir, crème fraiche, sour cream, real cheese...
The most influential factors to live a long healthy and fulfilled life is to:
1) Have little/ to no stress in your life.
2) Get 8 hours quality sleep each night.
3) Have no money worries.
4) Don't eat processed foods.
5) Cook for yourself from scratch.
6) Do regular hard exercise.

Thank you both for admitting mistakes in the past ,my dad is 92 years young and no meds at all ,his mom lived till 96 no meds no docs,our food has changed in the last few decades to make us sick so the drug administration can thrive!!!!! So the drug and food admin in this country is thriving in the richest country in the world ,yet we are the sickest ,over weight diabetic heart problems than anyone else in the world,stop and think what the heck is going on!!!

and we all fell for it, the "Food Industry" makes a Huge amount of money supplying patients to the medical industry.
Check out Dr. Lustig.
Minute 30: I personally 100% trust someone who’s able to tell “you know, I was wrong” because those are the people who will give you the best advice they have in hand at the time, and not forcing dogmas and cult style catch phrases into others.
Well…how would you know when they are right when they are constantly correcting themselves? 😂 Not saying this new info of ketones would be wrong or right because who knows, but he is swlling his new book with this new amazing thing 😉
@@tuukkaylitalo3527 not particularly interested in the books tbh.
But if I have to choose I’d definitely listen to someone who has no problem to openly say “I was wrong” than to someone who follows a religious like approach to science.
But hey, do whatever feels better for you, that’s the great thing about freedom of choice 🤷🏻♂️
I guess the best thing is always try it and see if it works.
For me I personally follow different bits of advice from different sources - if it works great - if it doesn’t I change it
This is a new era of doctors, not like before where they were so proud to be right all the time (and they were not) Now, we see how this specilized guys admit when they are wrong and fix it on the way. I am so lucky to find this kind of people. People like them are my real Heroes, not just doctors but people who share valiaable information and admit on the way when they are wrong. Great video, thanks for sharing I am learning!!!!!
These are doctor with private practices ..they are not hired by govt
Anyone buy Gundry’s products? He has many products…20,000 people buying bottles at $69.99 makes a nice side-hustle. 😏 Snake oil?
most of the docs that are willing to speak the truth that the gov is not selling have already had their successful practices and can afford to retire or do a side hustle that may get them shunned in the woke health care system.
these are all outliers
The way our bodies work on a molecular level is so amazing! Brings to mind this Bible verse: "I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well." (Psalm 139:14)
You have brought a smile on the almighty God Jehovah face to acknowledge the mighty hand in the creative works .
Amen!
I am carnovore as of April 22. It is now April 23 and what I have restricted is my inflammation in my joints. When I have restricted is my asthma. I have restricted my 20+ year lower G.I. issues. Healed.
My diet is Bulletproof stuff, Keto, and Plant based. I feel like sticking to one strict type of diet defeats our biology. Our bodies seem to like flexibility and variety and only REAL food. The Keto Code definitely adds more useful information. I just wish Dr. Gundry didn't come across so much like a snake oil salesman. When I look at his web site & supps and email teasing for new products and his biases between his writings and his web store it's difficult not to feel a bit of sleazy there.
He just want sell books by banking on people's ignorance
@@chuxyy That and oil. You literally only have to swap out coconut for snake and it's exactly him.
It is my understanding that the blue zones tend to be tradition-oriented communities of people who have thrived from generation to generation by eating a simple, limited variety of unprocessed foods, but they are also characterized by healthy life habits which include daily rituals, mindfulness, prayer or meditation, natural exercise, regular exposure to outdoors and a strong commitment to community. I have always found Dr. G's hyper-emphasis on self-produced supplements, made from rare ingredients gathered from remote corners of the world - a bit suspect. Not saying that these products could not be beneficial, but critical thinking suggests our bodies are basically adapted to run on generally available sources of nutrition, even if those vary in season and locale. The notion that we have to consume expensive cocktails of laboratory-produced supplements in order to thrive strikes me as overwrought and frankly, imbalanced. To be clear, I am firmly pro-free enterprise. I do not begrudge scientists fruits of their research. Having said that, I think that nutritional research at it's best is seeking to find ways of improving health for all people, not just the well-heeled. This is especially important given the rising epidemic of obesity, which is putting the masses of American children at SUBSTANTIAL RISK for diseases and reduced lifespans. This is a concern is often on the forefront of Dr. P's discussions. For example, Dr. P has made special efforts to try and encourage the Biden administration to take into account the latest research regarding the harm of dietary sugars. I respect him for that.
@@merriemerrie7378 i understand both sides. I dont think chemical nutrients are smart, but as humans we dont always take advantage of the smartest nutrition available, so we have a lot of improvement to do on the way we eat. We are far from where we should be. So I see nothing against eating specialozed foods or nutrition. For some it can br a life saver. Well I didnt check his website but anyways in general have nothing against specialized foods or nutrition
He comes across as a scammer. I can’t stand him.
LOVE that you are both willing to change your viewpoint. That's the only way we all will grow and improved.
Thanks for this very informative video.

I had to wean my son from my milk early. I did it by giving him organic goat's milk with just a few drops of organic maple syrup. He liked it and it seems that it was actually good for him even though I gave him carbs in it. That was 30 years ago before I heard of any MCT or ketones.
No judgment from me or anyone else I think for realizing a mistake. The greatest part of it is to correct the mistake and like both of you sharing a new paradigm with your patients/public. I appreciate both of you!
Thank-you both for questioning and changing your approaches to health and nutrition as the science evolves. Most importantly thank-you for sharing the results with all of us 👍
The science has always been there , the problem is when someone twists it to push their agenda - the science of keto was never to be used for selling ketogenic diets but that’s how it was interpreted by so many
More proof that the science is never settled!
Dr Gundry is may favorite doctor forever. I do not ge tired of saying thanks to him for the valuable information that has helped me so much.
I don't always pay attention to dr Gundry..but when I do..its when he's chatting platinum with dr Perlmutter. Great stuff guys.
I’m thankful that you both have open minds enough to admit you were wrong in the past and you have learned otherwise and you continue to learn and share new information.
Oh no! I just discovered Dr Perlmutter & Dr Gundry & now I have a lot more study to do. They go in deep. Fantastic work ty. 👏
Strangely enough I see Dr Gundry as a prophet of sorts as well as I see it in his development and understanding and that glimmer in his eye and hunger for more knowledge for helping other people.
What do you think of sunrise and sunset relative to red light?
Also grounding/ earthing? We need to get. Back to when we had better health as children, walking barefoot on earth. But I'm older than you guys at age 80. I'm grounding to ease inflammation. Thank you God for summer. And special thanks to you great physicians who love continuing education. 😍
red light is supposed to mimic the orange and red glows that penetrate us in the sunset and sundown
This has got to be one of the most important videos I have ever watched. Thank you Dr Perlmutter and Dr Gundry
Eating a low carb animal food, nuts/seeds, vegetable based diet is not difficult at all. Real whole nutritious food speaks for itself. Feed your body real food and you health will improve. Eating this way naturally leads to ketosis, low insulin, smaller eating window, larger fasting window and less overall inflammation. Not complicated, really!
I totally agree. Today I am making keto coconut ice cream in my little ice cream maker and keto almond bases waffles in my new condition but cheap used store waffle maker. Think I’ll make a little ice cream sandwich with 2 1/4 pc waffles.😀
I cant have sugar and other garbage foods on the house. If they aren't here, I'm fine, especially after about a week of the cravings being gone.
I completely agree with your statement..."eating this way naturally leads to ketosis". I found a lot of inaccuracies and exaggerations in his book such as, having to eat 80% fat to remain in ketosis. It's not the high fat intake that keeps you in ketosis, it's the reduced amount of carbs. I feel he downplayed this in his book and really only honed in on the fat, which firstly...keto is generally only 70% fat and secondly, it is suggested to reduce your fat intake once you have reached fat adaptation. Rant over 🧐 lol (for now ;)
@@robertavillella6485 with you...after 4 yrs on keto I have moved towards Ted Naiman ideas...higher protein, and still test ketones in urine
Not everyone can eat this way. We don't all live in the same climate, are the same age, sex or have same metabolism. Diversity is required.
What an amazing enlightening completely beneficial source of USEFUL information. I cannot thank you both enough for this, I just got of of hospital nearly died
back-to-back Covid. I have been ill for over 2 months. I was in hospital dying for almost 3 weeks. I knew some about the gut bacteria but there is so much conflicting info, but one of my alternative care doc had already began teaching me about the plants. I was seeking how to start the fasting a Safeway. I am implementing all these methods right way and will keep everyone informed as to my progress. Thank you so much. May God bless you all as I work on protecting and feeding my gut bacteria
Keep it rolling! We learn and challenge ourselves everyday. If it wasn't for you both and some others we would still be getting sicker and sicker. Thank you
This is exactly what Dr Berg has been calling “healthy keto” for ages. TONS of salad, moderate fat (unless you have very low body fat - then more healthy fats), and moderate protein.
So healthy fat is saturated fat in my book, what about you
So did the title lie, that you can enter keto "without Restrictive Diets". Because what you said is very restrictive.
@Water~Man I wrote that before viewing, and it was excessively restrictive. I looked up his book on the topic, and many were saying his science is confusing and sparse. I'm not taking his advice.
Yes exactly
Bravo. Thank you for keeping us current.
It is what my grandma always did - fermented vegetables and making own kefir
Confused, if fiber is so great for us why do we eliminate it and why do we not have the plumbing to process it i.e, couple of stomachs? Is it necessary or not because the carnivores are pooping just fine without it.
You don't need fiber. You only need it to help you w the junk
I was a patient of Dr. Atkins at his clinic in Manhattan. Wonderful!
I’ve wanted to see you two have a interview for a long time now. Excellent.
Just one of many discussions we've had over the years.
Yes new information is coming out every day and thank u for bringing it to the table
Carnivore saved my life..my bloodwork has never been better..when are people going to learn the truth about cholesterol
Simply amazing!! These two Jyst know their stuff and they are great at making their points with other and are right on point with the latest content about digestive issues as well as other things. Don’t miss this!
One of the best talks regarding health on youtube. Many thanks to you both. Fantastic info.
Listening to these soft-spoken gentlemen engage in intelligent conversation was very instructional but also strangely therapeutic.
what a fantastic source of life info. I feel very grateful. Thank you!!
Great episode.Thanks. I've heard multiple "experts" claim that most people take days to get into ketosis. So, Dr Gundry is saying all you have to do is take some MCT oil and that will get you there?
I went two months on strict carnivore. I lost 22 pounds but my triglycerides went through the roof. I’m now on month three and am more on keto now looking to get my bloodwork to a satisfactory place. I’m also still doing intermittent fasting eating once every 24 hours… This is a most enlightening conversation.
Dumb to start fasting so soon after just starting a radical diet.
Fantastic, keep up the great work! Build muscle too 💪
Make sure you also get an insulin test, not just glucose/A1C though. You have to see what your pancreas does; bare minimum fasting insulin (optimal is under 7, lower is better). Best test is a "2 hour Insulin Glucose Challenge test" or GTIR. Way back in the 80s Dr Kraft was already measuring both and finding hidden diabetics! "Occult diabetes"
You need to research dr. Cywes and his explanation on protein intake, etc. Basically leave omad and fasting for later (a year even, at least 6 months). Try and spred you protein intake into at least two sittings, do not have it all at once. Otherwise your liver will be converting the excess protein you are taking into sugar, or eventually store it as tryglicerides. Folks do make this mistake, but at the beginning of carnivore you have to focus on eating more fat than protein, for a while. That is the key part in terms of what your body is going through when you get rid of carbs - it's adopting to large fat intake with no carbs involved. You have to let it go through this process of fat adaptation, and experiment (omad, fasting) only later on.
From what I have read one of the problems that can occur with doing the carnivore diet is in fact eating too much protein and not enough fat. The excess protein is converted to glucose, and this raises insulin preventing proper fat adaptation. This may have been the issue with your triglycerides being high. Also, if you had a fatty liver, you will see that all being released. Give your body adequate time to repair before panicking about blood tests. I am doing keto Mediterranean style and will wait for at least 9 months before doing blood tests to check markers for improvement.
@@stanko10 Exactly. You are spot on.
Dr Gundry, I have been listening to you for about 4 years. And in this video you look younger than when I first started listening to you! This video has motivated me to follow this plan, as it seems realistically easier than other plans… i.e. something I can actually do without going crazy.
I still worry about Lectins and have questions about them. I want to buy the specific olive oil you recommend.
I’m 74, and I have debilitating IBS, very little energy, and chronic pain. Thanks to you, I’m looking forward to losing weight, feeling better, having more energy, and living a longer, more active life. I will let you know of my success.
I would say the following: un-coupling here is used in the sense of what you might do with a passenger train. If you want a longer train to go to two different destinies, you can uncouple or divide the train somewhere close to the middle. Now each of these trains can go their own seperate ways.
In any case, you mentioned in episode 129 of your podcasts that Ancle Keys was on the wrong track making out fats as the culprit of becoming overweight.
So, having noticed then that Professo Dr. Jutkin was correct and together with Dr. Lustig brought out a book about (refined) sugar, I stopped utilizing a vegetarian lifestyle and switched to a intermittent fasting one because I noticed nutrients were missing from a balanced diet.
The next thing I want to try out is adding sources of vitamin A, D³ and K², so I will be targetting sardines with skin and bones, cod liver and (MK) cheese.
Eat like someone 200 years ago. Look up any picture of those people. They may have had other issues but obesity is definitely not the major problem. Maybe not a caveman but be smart about it. Whole everything. All modern industrial made things have stripped the fiber out. I'm just 1 week into my journey and have never felt better in the past 10 years. This total flip of the food pyramid has blown my mind. Veg oils are posion. I've taken those out for this week. I have been doing intermittent fasting 6 out of 7 days this week. Amazing feeling and tightened the belt up one whole notch. Eating lots of butter and lard. Lots of fiber naturaly. Adding butter to boost the satisfaction. I have zero cravings for any sugar, chips or fried anything. I love it. Thank you all who have dug into these things for the past 50 years. So sorry we have to deal with the corruptions of sugar, corn and veg oils.
You cant get fat when you are starving. Only nobles/wealthy were fat 200 years ago, both because of an abundance of food and the lack of physical exercise.
@@Th0rinek You get fat eating seed oils, sugar and no fiber. Not meat and vegetables.
how would you know if a living person has the most uncoupled mitochondria? and would that be mitochondria of all the various body cells? Also, would it be the case that this idea of the mitochondria working less but multiplying themselves in response to ketones be purely theoretical.... or have studies been done? Not sure what multiplying means... a longer mitochondria in each cell? Two + separate mitochondria in a cell? Not a science person here-- so help!
As a reader I say THANK YOU, for revising outdated information!! ❤😂
I appreciate these two physicians very much and look forward to seeing what they discover as I increase my fiber and decrease my red meat. Thank you, gentlemen.
6 months later, how is it going for you? Sticking to it and feeling better?
Thank goodness for honest doctors! I have a neuromuscular problem. 6th nerve palsy. Regenerating that nerve and keeping it sound is my biggest hope! Keep on keeping on docs! All the best to you! (Retired Respiratory Therapist)
Keto is good for carb addicts.. Read sugar. I can't stop eating carbs.. Period.. So till I am confident that I am in control of the addiction., Keto is besti
Right
I enjoyed your discussion with Dr. Hungry very much indeed. Thank you.
@@sarahshade1523 GUNDRY! Lol! Not hungry! Close, but no cigar for you! Or were you trying to be funny? If so, that's not the way -> to misspell the man's name! No!
Does this partially explain why the Mediterranean diet which is rich in carbs, in general is linked to longitivity & good health. Could it be connected to the MCT in the goat & sheep milk products they consume?
A great and very informative conversation, doctors. Thank you. Love ya Dr. Gundry.
There is a link of near infrared and early morning sunlight...
Absolutely 👌
As someone that has a history of reflux issues (I've had fundoplication surgery), that has been drinking diluted acv for about half my life (it relieves bloating) and now that's on a light keto diet eating plenty of fermented foods etc why on earth I still suffer from so much bloating? Strawberries, tomatoes, red meat, sometimes high fat, basically anything at any given moment.. Why is my microbiome seemingly not in better shape? What is the explanation for a life of bloating and gas, even when diet is as clean as it can be?
Maybe go carnivore for a few month then slowly inroduce some veggies ?
@@joecamel6835it's definitely an option / last resort. I have a feeling my case might baffle the scientists quite a bit! (and potentially many others too). I think we are searching high and low for these hard and fast rules, but what's to say each individual's GI tract isn't as unique as the individual? 🤷🏻♂️ We do need better methods of GI analysis. Something that isn't as invasive as scopes that can actually feedback on what is truly going on in our guts and what is likely to work and not work.
Food sensitivity. Some of that food is harming you. Try dr D'Adamo personalized nutition.
Fantastic info and presented in a way that I can understand. Thank you gentlemen!
Fascinating, another reason to avoid an early breakfast!!. Usually do 18 hours IF, will aim for a little longer... Thanks for all of the latest information, have just picked up both of your books. Cheers
No need to aim longer regularly. Gundry states there’s not much benefit shown in a smaller than 6 hour eating window.
Perhaps occasional long fast though?
Or how about not eat anything at night and instead eat a big early breakfast. I find it kind of silly and pointless to eat before going to bed anyway when that's the time you're body needs the least amount of energy. Whereas early in the morning, if you do eat, even if it's a big meal, one's metabolism will be fastest and they'll be most energetic so that's the most forgivable time to get away with eating the most amount of food.
I think the eating window can be whatever works best for you and your lifestyle-it’s the amount of time spent fasting that’s most important. I agree that it would be better for me to start earlier and end by 7:00, but I work until 5:00 and go to the gym after work, so that’s nearly impossible for me. If I was single, I could make this work for me by having a small meal before the gym.
Love your work Dr Perlmutter and Dr Gundry!
Exactly, changing messaging is okay. In fact respectable. We learn and evolve. Thank you for these interviews
Kudos Doctors, this is the most medical information I can remember in one vid 👍👍
Not sure if these two doctors are purposely being misleading or do not understand that you can eat huge quantities of fiber on a keto diet. Making a judgement on keto diets being problematic based on blood work from three patients is incredibly poor science.
They’re both quacks chasing riches by being contrarian shills.
Thank you! That's the way these two roll......beware.
Did you actually watch the video?
interesting...my ancestors lived well into their 90's and over 100....they lived in the Carpathian Mountains of Eastern Europe and did raise goats and sheep, for meat, milk, cheese, and of course wool. Chickens and ducks too but cows were not that available as they are expensive to keep but oxen can pull plows. Their sweets came from natural pure honey and fruits in season and dried for the winter. Cabbage and cole crops were most often the vegetable and root crops like those things they call "super-food" now, beets! All with LOADS of garlic and onions. Vinegar was another staple of their diet. Our soups are even made with vinegar and eaten cold(little animal fat, just starchy veggies(beans and potatoes), flour as thickener and vinegar...with the standard garlic and onions!. High carb, high acid, cold soup that is the best thing on a hot sweaty day.....chills you and surprisingly will keep you feeling cool...unlike just a glass of ice water. There is something to seriously to look at with fermented and acidic foods. The ancient way to preserve foods. When I ate greasy fatty pork, if I had some sour soup or sauerkraut with it, I NEVER had any indigestion and actually felt fuller with less.
Thanks for the update on Keto excellent conversation
It is so confusing for someone, like me, who has Hoshimotos. Supposedly the plant-based foods are better for us as humans but they can be really terrible for Hoshimotos sufferers. Our digestive system is inflamed by nightshades, cruciferous, dark green leafy veggies and more. Personally, I love and miss most vegetables but the gut pain I get when eating them just isn't worth it. Old fashioned Keto is the only thing that seems to have healed by gut, leaves me pain and ache-free, and has greatly increased my strength and energy levels. I worry all the time that I'm not eating enough fruits and veg but I don't want to go back to how I was feeling before starting traditional keto. What do you say about people like me???????
6:30
No mention that glucose can be made from the glycerol in fats huh ?
That's what I noticed too !
@@joecamel6835 some might call that sophistry
Glycine and glutamine really help with glycogen storage/recovery after High intensity exercise as well
@@joecamel6835 taurine as well
Taurine exerted hypoglycemic effects by enhancing insulin action by facilitating the interaction of insulin with its receptor [54]. Thus, taurine can serve to increase glycogen synthesis, glycolysis, and glucose uptake in the liver of rats and mice.
Hi thanks for the great video. It's very informative and helpful to understand our body. And the language used is more or less understandable for layman. But what I found most interesting is at around 14:35 he said "who ever designed this". Is he implying something? And if yes, what? For me, that is the most interesting part of the whole conversation. Thanks very much for your comment and understanding. Kind Regards Sudkhet
I did a keto diet, sustainable meats and a lot of vegetables. I had long covid then got a concussion (have had a few), but I lost a lot of muscle and was underweight. So I had to go off the diet and began to improve slowly, but faster.
I did the diet one other time and began having neurological symptoms, I felt post-concussive, was dizzy, and having a hard time standing. So went to the Dr, since my blood glucose was so low, I had to go off. I also bonk hard during exercise if I haven’t eaten much and can barely stand. If I don’t eat breakfast, I barely get any work done. I can fast evening to morning, but not during the day.
What I struggle with is that there are some really great scientists out there who disagree about the whole gut microbe/fibre issue. Paul Mason, Robert Cywers, Ken Berry and Zoe Harcombe to name but a few. We came down out of the trees and differentiated from our monkey cousins to eat red meat. It was the ancestral change that moved us forward. This is fact. Vegetables and fruit as they exist today just did not exist. A high carbohydrate diet definitely did me severe damage in the 80 s and 90s and I was not obese. The mixed messaging in medicine and science is so distressing and doing huge amounts of damage via the Internet. There is a study that shows everything and anything if you look hard enough. Everyone has an agenda.
I agree, if science were anywhere close to fact based how on earth can they justify so many different alleged "educated" opinions/research findings??? Biases and self-serving conflicts of interests/agendas are the only explanation, which is terrifying.
What carbs were you eating and what damages?
@@milumavIsn't more research the answer?
@@jr.6199 Of course, as long as the research is done without conflicts of interest, corruption and/or reckless hidden agendas. Unfortunately integrity in scientific research is becoming rarer by the minute, and we can no longer afford to treat every newest research article as fact. Reading over the peer-reviewed research papers ourselves, cross-referencing them,
and verifying who funded them is key to separating the wheat from the chaff, (so to speak), and is why it's so vital that information be free and accessible.
We didnt come from monkeys.God created man and HE created monkeys.JESUS is the WAY the TRUTH and the LIFE.Pray to HIM to SAVE your souls.HE WILL SAVE and ANSWER YOU ALL.
Are any of Dr. Perlmutter's conclusions supported in studies? Does he include them in the footnotes of his book?
Lovely conversation. Very informative.
This was great! Tied a few things together which I have been wondering about. Thank you both!
Have watched this video twice and still do not understand what Dr Gundry was trying to say.
His thoughts sometimes seemed disconnected and incomplete. His speech was slower and faintly slurred. I hope it was just wine at lunch ??
Me too, I can never understand or get anything out of what he says.
Just a fabulous hour! Thank you so much for such great information..at seventy and riding the health train since I was 20 and as each decade in the health industry changes I get so excited to apply it to my lifestyle! Thank you so much!
I'm the same age and do that too - only problem was I was caught out during the low fat era!
Very technical conversation!🤪could you put it in plain English? Bottom line?
narcissistic banter
Wormwood (as mitochondrial uncoupler)👍👍 is that permission to drink Absinthe?😊 awesome interview 🙏 Susan
Why do you guys try so hard to not say ATKINS or Dr. ATKINS, who took a huge professional backlash( that includes you) , to introduce the ATKINS ( Keto) way of eating. I remember the last upswell of professional backlash….now everyone is on HIS gravy train.
Getting rich peddling a fad diet doesn’t mean the diet works as advertised. In fact it’s a good indicator that it doesn’t.
,When I was trying Atkinson about 45 years ago and now see discussions about keto,have to laugh,the same diet😂
Atkins ísť keto😊
We need to eat more plants/dietary fiber, was never an Atkins statement. MCT, or discussing medium chain triglycerides as a mytochondrial uncoupler was never in the conversation.
Because atkins is high fat, high protein, plus u can have more then 50 grams of carbs aday. Keto is 50 grams of carbs aday, high fat, low protein. Very different focuses and results. Atkins doesn’t put u in deep ketosis or uncouple your mitochondria as a area of focus
Is the basic conclusion from this video essentially eat clean, not too much fat or protein in any unusual amounts and take MCT oil? (and btw.. Is coconut MCT oil OK?)
Wow!! what an action packed interview, like discovering a nugget of Gold every Minute. I am 72 now and at around 64 I felt the knee of an exponential curve towards sickness, I had blind spots appearing in my vision (nb: identical and variable in BOTH eyes) I got dizzy by just looking up, my gut was putrid etc. I said to myself "DO OR DIE" so AT THAT TIME I researched (Thank you Dr Perlmutter) and discovered ketosis. In hindsight I would have been smarter to take a more balanced approach but I panicked and I went so hard out into ketosis I would not even let tap water on or enter my body (I captured rain water), my glucose/ketone ratio plummeted below 1:1, luckily for me I was not on any medication.
I went through a rough transition including brain fog etc then suddenly just like Dr Gundry mentioned it was like my brain "Woke Up" and my body was so energized I could walk flat stick uphill without even having to breath through my mouth. I lost 25kg in three weeks from over 95kg to less than 70kg. I thought I had cachexia and decided to abort if I went below 65kg. Then I got a major cramp in my leg which was painful and would not let go for a long 5mins ( probably a Magnesium deficiency). So I aborted and re-stabilized to my new condition. Now from this interview it's clear to progress further I need to share the workload by producing MORE mitochondria to SHARE the load, what an awesome discovery (thank you BOTH!! for this interview). Next goal "METABOLIC FLEXIBILITY" without panicking. (Thank you Dr Gundry).and thank you BOTH for such an amazing interview. Interestingly I am also fascinated by Wim Hoff the ice man and have started a WARM wash COLD rinse shower regime.
This is so interesting and helpful. Thank you for this work you are doing and making available to us.
I listened, and I still have no idea of "How to Enter Ketosis without Restrictive Diets." I guess I need a PHD in biochemistry to make sense of how to navigate through the jungle of all these many proposals of what to eat. The more I listen to all the doctors and PHD's on UA-cam, the more confused I get, and I just feel like giving up hope of figuring out what to buy at the grocery store...
Minute 36:00 to 38:00 is the most helpful info. Athletes who ate the same amount of calories had very different results depending on when they ate. The ones who restricted their eating between the hours of 1:00 P.M. to 8:00 P.M. had weight loss and gained muscle mass. Also minute 43:00 tells us that fiber eaten in fermented foods is more beneficial to your gut biome.
Stop eating sugar and lower carbs as much as you can while eating vegetables with intermittent fasting seems to be the major points.
Sadly, Dr Gundry may be right but the fact that he sells his products and books makes me wonder if there is any bias in what he says and what he doesn’t. Perhaps he is very honest but I am cautious.
No you don’t need a phd. Polyphenols are blueberries. So eat more of those. Intermittent fasting means don’t eat until you absolutely have to. Make the time between meals as long as you can prolong it. Eat fiber. That means lots of vegetables. Eat fermented foods. That means eat Korean kimchi-and also sauerkraut and maybe some kombucha tea. I hate the sauerkraut so it will be tea for me. Eat Parmesan cheese and other hard cheeses. Shine a red light on yourself. The only one I didn’t quite understand was the #6, cold exposure. Can someone explain that to us please?
Google Dr Boz..
Everyone raves about MCT oil. I ordered MCT oil capsules from Amazon and started taking them. In less than two days I had some type of allergic reaction and developed pain and inflammation in my joints. As a result I had to stop taking the MCT oil. Maybe the dosage was way too high, I don’t know.
Get MCT naturally from goat’s and sheep’s cheese
Dr Ben Bilkin says the reason the animal studies showing restricting their caloric intake increasing life span 30% was because they didn’t count the animals that died from infection . If the animals in the study that died because of infection get counted too, then the data showed no longevity advantage to eating low calorie diets.
Another study found that calorie restriction showed no benefit when calories were spread out across the entire day. It turns out that the only advantage to calorie restriction is the intermittent fasting component. But the benefits of intermittent fasting can be obtained without calorie restriction.
24:00 wnat specific markers of epithelial cell dysfunction are you speaking of exactly?
They likely aren't getting enough magnesium ,ehich is where the stickiness mostly comes from
Extremely powerful and helpful information. Thank you Gentlemen.
Awesome doctor's! Thank you for widly sharing your knowledge!
It makes no difference to me what in grains cause me a problem. I get arthritis symptoms when I eat them. I've done n=1 experiments to know it conclusively. Arthritis was severe enough to leave deformed knuckles. Symptoms return if I eat grains. I don't need to know the minutiae of grain. Just need to avoid it. Rheumatologist was no help. He just said take more ibuprofen. Said I could take way more than the directions call for.😒
Awesome. I'll have to watch this several times to get all out of it.
Is he for the keto diet or against it? Can't seem to figure him out
I think he acknowledges its power for health recovery but because some people find it hard to restrict carbs either for themselves or for someone they're caring for (for example children or the elderly) then it's very helpful to have some specific tools such as fasting, MCT oil, vinegar, fermented foods to use independently of keto.
What exactly is mitochondria uncoupling?
For the first time, scientists have shown that mitochondria - the “powerhouses” of cells - are crucial for aging, after finding that >"removing"< mitochondria* from human cells reduced levels of markers for cellular aging, triggering a process of rejuvenation.
Now I'm 😕 confused
What is your feeling about protein water?
Very interesting info. Always learn something new. Red light for macular degeneration? I wonder what my eye doctor will say about that. Would love to try it
Try using your “red color filter” on your phone when viewing screen. Soothes tired eyes. Diminishes blue lighting the screen.
A beautiful interview.Thank you!!
Can you say something about IHHT / Hypoxy Therapie in regard to mitochondrial function?
Could IHHT really be beneficical for mitochondrial function?
Or is it more efficiant to simply do 2 hours aerobic endurance sports instead of IHHT?
I'm wondering if Dr Gundry's patients with sticky blood have been jabbed with C19
yes, I was wondering about that myself!
Could you talk about oxalates and how we can lower this in out diet while also getting good nourishment and lots of polyphenols? Also, what is the skin supplement that Dr Gundry takes please? 💊
I am half into the conversation and it seems that they are speaking in some special language that only THEY understand. I am fairly knowledgeable in keto and low carb way of eating but they are not making it easy! Thanks for the video anyway!
I undersood everything thanks to watching many excellent videos from dr Stan Ekberg. He explains everything in a detail in a way that is easy to understand.
Thank you so much for this discussion!
