I lost 65lbs in four months just by reducing carbs to only breakfast. Healthy ones at that, oatmeal, whole grains, fruits. Meat and veggies only for lunch and dinner. Lots if water. Excersize 5 days a week. Nothing crazy. No gym memberships. Pushups and running. Stuff you can do at home. Been life changing.
so you just started doing sport and move your ass. ofcourse you will lose fat. reducing carbs helps in this but you changed your lifestyle. thats the main factor
@@johnmachter40 sugar is the biggest thing that makes you gain weight. Too many carbs turn to sugar however you should utilize carbs if you're training 5 days a week. Fasting while working out and doing breathing exercises feels amazing
I had a major cerebellar stroke in 2013. Brain surgery, the whole 9 yards. After all this brain trauma, neuro fatigue is a major problem. I can't exercise 'cos I can't walk that far. I wanted to reduce the inflammation in my body so started keto in January 2020. To date (June 2021), my fatigue is way better, my energy levels are much higher, my skin is better. Plus, I happen to have lost 30kgs. I'm the lightest I've been since I was in my 20s. I'm now 63.
I’m 6’2 and in good shape with a 32 inch waist I’m 220. I got all the way up to 312 pounds despite working out 5 days a week and not eating what I thought was a decent diet. I couldn’t lose weight like I could in the past so in my efforts to figure out why I stumbled onto Dr Berg. I went hard full keto with a 21/3 fasting to eating schedule. In 5 months I lost over 100 pounds, after the first 30 days the weight melted off. Apparently I was pre diabetic with insulin resistance. Literally all of my health problems went away, my heart palpitations my swollen joints and joint pain, I slept better had more energy than I knew what to do with as well as a huge increase to my libido. Keto is legit and I feel that sugar is a poison and people eat far far too much.
Dr Berg is an awesome resource. His videos help motivate me.... but the fifty pounds I’ve lost and increased health benefits are for real. Sugar is like a hard addictive drug. It’s hard to get away from with out a little discipline.
It has taken me 4 years to find this podcast and to see that I came to the same conclusion all by myself. Always tired after lunch, aching joints ect. My body told me to stop various carb intakes and I feel so much better. No bread, no sugar, no pasta. Refined carbs, grain based foods. Quite remarkable...
I went on keto lost 2 and half stone, Got better focus (massively decreases ADHD symptoms) And cured back pain Fatty liver And IBS entirely gone which I was on medication. Keto diet is ace ,
I recently stopped eating carbs like bread and pasta - and I'm a pasta maniac so I was really eating lot of that stuff. I'm 2 weeks in and already I'm feeling a lot better and my damn belly isn't so bloated. Still big - but I'm seeing progress. Also I'm not so tired and sleepy all the time.
I weigh 185lbs @ 6ft, and that is gym weight. 6 days a week 2 1/2 hrs in the gym. I eat what I want. Your way of living sounds pretty damn Boring/Bland.
Joe, up until a few months ago I thought you were just some crazy ass drugged out comedian who just made me laugh but I never really took you seriously. After really following your podcasts you have opened my eyes to so many new topics and I have began a lifestyle change to balance my nutritional intake. I could never get on board with diets because the information was never presented in a way that I could relate to. You’re ideas and topics are so relatable and intuitive because you break down the science of nutrition into an understandable language. Keep it up man thanks for sharing everything!
It's the habit you need nor the substance. Find an innocuous substance. I used to be addicted to marguerite as. Well I guess technically they're called palomas A paloma is squirt to killa lime juice and salt. But they don't make diet squirt anymore and I didn't want to drink anymore. So now I mix fresca which is sugar free lime juice and salt no tequila no sugar. I have one every night when I get home it's awesome. I also have a bone broth with it. That is my nightly ritual I don't miss the sugar I don't miss the booze because I've got this I've got another substance that's virtually calorie free.
I’m not condoning nor supporting the use of weed, but after a long day of work, and working out, smoking always loosens me up. Wether it be giving me tolerance for pain sensation, sleep, testosterone. Hell , i think it helped me with appetite, there’s so many shady substances out there that’s just a fat sloppy mess, substances that can put your entire way of life to shit, but weed is helpful in it’s own merit. Not saying it’s beneficial, some drugs aren’t for everyone.
I'm down 49 lbs. Started 28 August, 2017, at 220lbs. By 27 Nov 2017 I was down to 180 lbs, a pant size and a couple holes tighter on my belt. Less body fat (definitely noticeable). I slowed it down, and haven't been as strict through 2018, and hovered around 177. I've started intermittent fasting 16/8 and leaning keto in food choices, and I'm down to 170-171. This mess is real and practically a miracle worker. Damn near everything can be traced back to what you put on the table.
Do u mind telling what your diet consisted of..wanting to do this but how exactly did you lose your weight? What Foods? Great job by the way, that's awesome! Thanks
There's nothing wrong with anecdotal evidence in addition to more rigorously gathered scientific evidence. You can be scientific and still discuss anecdotes and case studies. There isn't a scientific study on literally everything accounting for every possible variable, and things vary from person to person. It makes sense to take anecdotal evidence into account where documented experimentation may be lacking.
Best thing to do is finding the best meal plan for the day and repeating it over and over to start. Find something that gives what you need nutritionally and energy wise and eat that every day. So start with finding a good breakfast, lunch, and dinner that satisfies your cravings, gives you your necessary nutrients (which you can also find pills and supplements for). Track if it's giving you the recommended amount of minerals such as iron, potassium, calcium, etc and eat that everyday. Then add another meal plan after you get sick of that. And now you have two days worth of meals you can prepare and alternate every other day. Slowly add more and more until you finally have a whole week planned out and written down. Then life gets easy. It comes down to restocking the ingredients needed and fucking cooking it. Once you have done this it really helps you stay on course and away from donuts, bread, and other foods that are bad for you. Get your shit together
No you don't. Does Joe sound happy to you? No, he freaks out about food. Fuck that. Live like a Rockstar... No famous/well respected artist ever had a strict diet.
Everything joe said at the end is true. I was depressed and in a shitty relationship and really didn’t get much sleep so I ate alot of crappy food in between the times I should’ve been asleep. And then you wake up do it all over sleeping in late eating carby meals. I went from 280 to 210
I stopped eating almost all refined sugars, and went low carb, cut processed foods too and I lost 40lbs from Oct-March doing very little excercise just walking my dog here and there.
Preach ! I lost 30 pounds once cutting out carbs and processed foods. Cholesterol became perfect my fatty liver GONE glucose perfect. My body gets sick if I add sugar back in. Joe is right 👍
You are what you eat. A little bread here and there I don't think is bad really. But, anything processed is a no for me. I eat nothing that comes in a packaged bag. Fast food, stay away from it! Just eat real food like they said. Meat, fruits, veggies. Simple. Now, beer is still the issue, lol; but, it's made from water and plant parts.... :P
@@tonithepony9846 more than a mountain dew ? High fructose corn syrup is the one of the worst things to put in your body. I'll still choose a beer over a can of soda. Soda and sugary drinks bring no benefits
@@L.ATRAFFICNMADNESS Did i say beer has more sugar then a mountain dew? No i didn't. Beer has a shitload of sugar. That's like saying well I'll take 4 adderalls over 5 hydrocodones.
@@noahwardak886 wow, that's incredibly fascinating. I certainly hope I can find more footage of this big-headed individual discussing his dietary habits
Joe Rogan is probably the most complete man. Not trying to stroke anyone's ego, but c'mon. Articulate, intelligent, great shape, successful, friendly but also not a pussy haha. Mad respect 💯
I think Joe makes his best point around minute 9. Work plays a great part in our health. Working a shit low income job were I was not happy, but had to spend large amounts of time to make a living wage. Now I have a good job with good pay, I spend less time at work, afford a gym membership and can afford to eat a better diet.
My problem with carb dense foods is not only do I feel sleepy but it makes me want to eat more and more and more. Where high protein high fat foods make me full but not sleepy
I’ve cut nearly all sugar and breads out of my diet for the last 6 months and I’ve never felt better in my life. Lost 22 pounds and never get that insulin crash anymore. It’s unreal how my sugar/carb cravings are virtually non-existent now and it’s just become easy.
I've been eating a carnivore diet since Feb 15th of this year. I have eaten grapes and watermelon, at different times, and went straight back to the arthritis type pain in my hip and back. It's crazy! As long as I'm eating this way, I feel great. I'm honestly not sure I'll ever go back to anything else. It's hard to make sense of, but I know I feel better.
Diagnosed with jessners, an autoimmune disorder years ago. Learned hard way you are what you eat. Great podcast! Thanks joe.! Jordan Peterson another remarkable individual. Nothing but respect for you both. Keep up the mind changing perspectives!
My GF’s doctor AND endocrinologist can’t give her a straight answer about her recently diagnosed “sub-clinical hypothyroidism”. Nor will they refer her to a dietitian or nutritionist to help with dietary needs. She has gained 30 pounds in the past two years, despite working out six days a week and watching her portion sizes. She’s been put on various thyroid meds, and no drug or dosage helps with her fatigue, continuous weight gain and hair thinning. She was looking into trying out the ketogenic diet, because she’s also insulin-resistant having an under active thyroid, and keto helps with people who have that issue, by lowering or eliminating the intake of bad refined carbs (anything from a packet or a box). But then she heard that keto can put further strain on the thyroid and cause a whole host of other issues in the body. She also read that exercise can stress a hypothyroid body, further exacerbating symptoms. Since she cannot get an answer on the optimal diet or exercise for her condition. Back to square one, and she feels helpless. I’m not a doctor, but I wish I were. I can only google so much with her until it becomes a fucking abyss of marketing ads and money-making fads. This is frustrating. *Any helpful suggestions out there?*
I also have hashimoto's and PCOS. Also rosacea has recently developed, which is supposed to be hormonal. I recommend her check out www.reddit.com/r/hashimotos if she hasn't already. At least it helps you feel not so alone. Also extended fasting has helped me lose weight during quarantine. Cutting out all sugar and carbs except for 90% dark chocolate and fruit / veg seems to help. Unfortunately we can't just eat less and exercise. It's a whole lifestyle adjustment. I don't know if I'll be able to keep this up when I go back to work but for now it's working. Good luck, hope she finds something that helps
sunshinepig - thank you for taking the time out of your day to write this great comment. This is super helpful information and I will direct my GF to that website for some extra support. Hypothyroidism is a hell of an illness... I wish the best for you too, I’m glad you found something that works for now!! 👍
@@RustySpoons6490 I have a few cousins with thyroid issues. They all say lchf makes them feel much better and eases the symptoms, but some don't adhere to it constantly because it tends to imoact social life. I also strongly suggest finding a naturopath or someone who knows about herbs. There are a few I know of that impact women's health heavily, but I don't know enough about it to recommend the dose or something. Hope she gets better 😊
You are 100% correct. When I can stay on meat and veggies with a random "cheat day", I feel so good. But, I had surgery a few months ago and I certainly slipped off of my diet. I quickly gained 25 pounds and have inflammation in my legs. It is amazing what effect you diet can have. Back on my diet and back in the gym .... that's the answer for me.
@@blackmagicks its not always. I tried allot of diets for a long period. And high carb suits me. Im a lifetime atlete and still compete in MMA and BJJ, very low body fat and always fit. Rarely any injuries so i gues im doing allright.
While i am 100% onboard with keto, i wish people wouldn't be so judgmental and try to be the health police. It's about finding what works for YOUR body and what YOU will stick to consistently. Find a lifestyle that is healthy and sustainable and don't worry about anyone that says their way is better, as long as your way is HEALTHY and working for you and you feel good.
It seems like diet has become almost as controversial as politics and religion. I agree, it's very subjective. What works for you might not work for me.
I find this unsettling for the people who still are obese and continue to eat high calorie diets but don’t use any good amount of that energy. Basically put in enough work to equal the amount of calories you put in.
zParallaxz calories matter of course but it’s not that simple. The type of calories you eat do matter. 500 calories in fat and protein are going to last a lot longer in your body and give you a level amount of energy versus 500 calories of pasta which will give you a spike of energy then a crash when it’s over.
lorridzak I’m not talking about people who actually will learn about the difference between starches and proteins. I’m referring to the average joe or mom who keeps eating highly processed foods and snacks while not burning enough of the calories they consume. I.e soda isn’t good for you, but if your keeping active by moving all day and walking a dog per say, the effects lessen.
There’s not a lot you can do except bide your time, anyone who comments “nah just eat less of it” clearly have never had an overeating issue... it finally happened for me in my 2nd year of college, after I got off the Freshman meal plan, I was able to cut down to 170
@@JohnR32111 pffffhahahaha do you know how much you have to smoke to feel like that? I don't think he smokes as nearly as what it takes, plus if you use a vape the problem disappears
Started keto because glucose and HbA1C kept going up - unintended but strangely cool things happened I cannot explain but welcomed: 1) skin tags under arms disappeared 2) chronic athlete's foot gone 3) no more body or face acne, even when stressed 4) ZERO nasal congestion PERFECT nose breathing after a lifetime of chronic sniffles/allergies/runny nose - even while sleeping 5) Went from 187-167lbs, 34 to 31 in waist
I find it crazy that most of the trending topics on diet and exercise is getting popular today but Joe has literally been talking about it literally 4 years ago, like no lie where the hell have I been? Very eye opening
I’m a type 2 diabetic. I stopped eating refined carbs and only focus on Whole Foods and I don’t even need my insulin anymore. I don’t have any sugar cravings. My a1c went to 5.5 and I lost 20 lbs in less than a month. I also walk 10,000 steps a day. We need to just stop eating processed foods. And eat real Whole Foods
Lost 70lbs in 9 months living a meat, fat and veg LIFESTYLE !!! This is key. This is not a “diet” for me. I never want to go back to the fog and heaviness.
I'd like to know if the bread they refer to is white bread, or Wholemeal. I've always preferred bread made with as much whole bran is as possible. I think it does, to some extent, negate the carb spike-and-crash effect described.
I’m on a _mostly_ Keto diet - predominantly fish, meat, eggs, with the exception of vegetables & fruit. I feel way better, i’ve lost significant fat since I started (I also lift a ton though) & I feel I can do this forever.
There was also a study showing corn communicate with each other via chemicals through the soil from roots to roots to warn each other of predators coming like a caterpillar. When the caterpillar is eating the leaf of one corn plant it will tell the others to put up their defenses. What a trip huh?
I had Lupus, clinical depression for 20+ years, arthritis in knee from old injury and extreme dairy allergies, went strict vegan, mostly plant-based and lots of green juices, within two months it was all corrected plus I lost a lot of weight. Wake up, bounce out of bed, high energy all day long, and look 20 years younger than I am. I don't know if these different groups are always shitting on each other and they both work but I know from my own experience that a true vegan diet is very healthy, for me the meat and dairy make me very sick.
AndysGeneral it’s surprising how little inherited genes plays a role in disease when you look up the actual numbers particularly auto immune diseases and cancer. It’s very weak indeed.
Can't believe that Joe mentioned Thoreau's famous quote, " Most men live lives of quiet desperation." When I heard that in English class in high school, I related to it so well and have had that as my all time favorite quotes that I've had in my back pocket all these years.
I lost 65 lbs since December off of this, man. Occasionally cheated when special occasions came around, but otherwise stuck to it. Absolutely legit, and I'd recommend it to anyone!!
Like you, Joe. I strongly believe BALANCE is the key to health. Not everything works for everyone, but the basics healthy foods does work for everyone. Balance is what has worked best for me. I found. I'm not a red meat eater. Not anymore. Super rare I'll have it. I'm more into chicken, salmon, other fish, eggs, veggies, fruits, etc. I try to control the carb. And I do feel best when I fast 2-4 times a week, whether for half a day, go very light that day or just go on water for a 1-2 days. I mostly drink water. Zero sodas. Juicing and all natural once in while. Like frappe, love them, I control it. The best you can do is always keep trying to eat healthy and what's best for you, your mind, and body. True for everything in life, BALANCE! Love most of the topics you bring. THANKS 💚
I eat keto since couple of months and started MMA + Krav Maga half a year ago. I train every day now, and lost a lot of fat, but still maintained the same weight - meaning I rebuild fat into muscles.
Watching this clip for the first time. Right at about 9 minutes in when the guys are talking about most Americans: working, feeling sad, Wendy’s, coffee, staying up, less sleep feel like crap, then start over again. Joe called it a roller coaster, I like to refer to it as the hamster wheel, but that’s what I was doing and what a lot of people do, and don’t even think about it. It’s so true, and that diet can not only kill you but at best make you feel sick, inflamed, depressed and here you are trying to figure out why. Why do I feel sick? Why does my entire body hurt? Why do I feel brain dead? Bingo!!!
I've noticed that people who are typically right, don't fight to PROVE that they are right. They tell you and they move on. Because they know that what they're saying works. If you try it yourself, you'll see. People who are desperate to convince you they are right are usually WRONG. They know they are wrong, yet somehow that makes them more adamant about trying to convince you to follow them. The saying, Misery loves company, rings true.
Friend of mine tried the keto diet for a few months went in for her yearly physical and her blood pressure was through the roof. Doctor told her to stop immediately.
I got fatty liver grade 2 in december 2022, switch my diet to keto and almost no sugar. I managed to lose 15 kg in two months and reverse my fatty liver in 3 months the USG result and blood test is really good event my doctor is surprised i did it in three months!
Sugar story. Here the UK I went to an event at Dunster Castle in the southwest. Years ago there was ships coming into port with spoils from abroad mainly India, sugar was a high value import. The funny bit. Sugar was very expensive so the poor and working class couldn't afford it. Years later the royals and wealthy all had teeth issues. And the poor didn't. Yet they didn't see the connection and instead turned to letting which is when they believed it was a poison in the blood so they would bleed people and depending on their birth month depended on where they would be cut. Absolutely true. You ever noticed a traditional barber shop has white poles with red lines around ? Before the barber was cutting hair they where cutting people and the red lines on a white pole represents blood running down the pole. Nuts hey, while your here why don't I cut your hair. And the modern day barber shop was created
This is a breath of fresh air. I thought my morning crashes are caused by me being a night owl. I don’t get crashes when I’m not eating carbs for breakfast. Even a half-serving of brown rice in the morning is enough for a mild crash. A single fucking pancake will knock me out cold halfway before lunch. The only good thing about brown rice is that I don’t find it as appetizing, and end up eating less carbs overall. Days where I eat less carbs are overall better than carb rich days. Even my gut shrinks when I eat less carbs.
I have PCOS, I learned recently that carbs and suger make my symptoms worse and stop me from being able to get pregnant. So I've decided to go no carb and no suger for a year and see what happens. I have tried keto for about 2 months before I had covid and my hirsutism wasn't showing up as much. Wish me luck!
I appreciate the director's open minded approach. I'm not a vegetarian for health reasons but for ethical reasons so when j people reduce the argument for or against eating meat to health they miss a huge part of why so many people don't eat meat. Any diet where you are mindful of where the food comes from and what it does for your body is going to be better than one where you just mindlessly eat what tastes good in the moment.
I tried vegan for awhile for health and moral reasons, it eventually made me feel worse and I learned about how many animals are killed and displaced from all the plants I was eating anyway.. now I just try to find the most ethically raised animal products I can because factory farming of animals is horrendous
15:00 onwards. So I had black strap mollasses recently for the last 6 months, 1-2 table spoons a day. now i have been diagnozed with chronic kidney disease. im super accurate with my overall diet so could this be the sole reason? i have absolutely no other reason to blame.
We've been switching between keto and carnivore with occasional carb loads after a heavy lift day. It's amazing. I make my own keto wonder bread. So awesome.
I've been for some years (especially since I moved from the states back to Europe) instinctively focsuing my eating habits on natural, whole, and unprocessed foods as much as possible. Sometimes I'm told I eat "boring", but the more I hear about actual dietary science the more it comforts me into what I've already been doing this whole time. Whenever I slip tho (damn you munchies) or am forced to eat industrial crap, the old sensations of feeling heavy, tired, moody etc come back in a blink, which I would not notice back then since I was feeling like shit all the time..
keto is good but whole foods, plant based is even better imo. Carbs from vegetables are not bad. The blue zones all ate 80% of their calories from carbs in whole foods. Meat is great but it's too much of a hassle for me to consistently get high quality farm raised meat. I don't buy factory farmed meat. Sardines are great but not necessary to consume all the time.
t3hgir it’s easier for most people to find farm animals than to do a plant based diet properly, just saying one is not better than the other based on subjective access to choices
This is for processed sugar. Carbs are essential for athletes that train for hours a day. Eating oatmeal, fruit and nut butters aren’t going to make you crash.
I love Joe's podcast but as someone who studies nutrition and is in school to become a dietitian, some of the food/nutrition based topics on the show are so far off
@@johnalcala The level of ignorance to say something like that. The human body evolved primarily using carbs as fuel in the form of fruits, veggies, AND whole grains (agriculture and shit). There's a reason your brain uses glucose, a sugar, as its primary means of fuel, and that you have blood sugar levels. Eating whole wheat bread is not going to give you an insulin spike and crash. White bread is. Carbs are not the enemy, refined carbs (fibres and other micronutrients removed) are. There's a difference.
It's simple. Either have a low carb diet with red meat, or a moderately high carb diet with no red meat. Both are effective. The low carb diet works a little bit better tho
I've just barely started eating healthier and working out on a regular basis and man.....even eliminating soda, fast food, and 75% of my junk food with some basic cardio. I feel better for the entire day and only once did I actually take a nap (which I rarely ever nap regardless). The hardest food so far to avoid is PIZZA, i frikkin love Pizza. lol I haven't eaten in a week and I'm going to plan on holding off for awhile before I do the occasional "cheat food" like a few slices of pepperoni pizza ha ha Exercising is easy to make a routine of, but man changing your food habits is TOUGH
I can attest to this while I'm not 100% keto or even in ketosis I'm more with Joe of moderation, I cheat here and there but over all I've cut sugar probably 75% from before and carbs dramatically. My main sugar intake was absolutely from beverages and i've cut sugar to only small amounts in my food(non from beverages), carbs are way down, increased the amount of vegetable's, some fruit, cut dairy way down but mostly all whole foods and very little processed crap, no snacking because I'm not hungry between meals because I'm eating good so I'm only eating 3 meals a day. I'm down 25lbs which took me off the edge of being overweight, way more energy, joints feel better, sleeping way better.
I lost 65lbs in four months just by reducing carbs to only breakfast. Healthy ones at that, oatmeal, whole grains, fruits. Meat and veggies only for lunch and dinner. Lots if water.

I’m not condoning nor supporting the use of weed, but after a long day of work, and working out, smoking always loosens me up. Wether it be giving me tolerance for pain sensation, sleep, testosterone. Hell , i think it helped me with appetite, there’s so many shady substances out there that’s just a fat sloppy mess, substances that can put your entire way of life to shit, but weed is helpful in it’s own merit. Not saying it’s beneficial, some drugs aren’t for everyone.
I'm down 49 lbs. Started 28 August, 2017, at 220lbs. By 27 Nov 2017 I was down to 180 lbs, a pant size and a couple holes tighter on my belt. Less body fat (definitely noticeable). I slowed it down, and haven't been as strict through 2018, and hovered around 177. I've started intermittent fasting 16/8 and leaning keto in food choices, and I'm down to 170-171.
This mess is real and practically a miracle worker. Damn near everything can be traced back to what you put on the table.
Do u mind telling what your diet consisted of..wanting to do this but how exactly did you lose your weight? What Foods? Great job by the way, that's awesome! Thanks
Joe: We need good science to determine how we should be eating.
Also Joe: I heard of this one guy....
How can we get you on the podcast? I respect you both, but Joe is half-informed on diet. (And too sensitive when it comes to vegans.)
There's nothing wrong with anecdotal evidence in addition to more rigorously gathered scientific evidence. You can be scientific and still discuss anecdotes and case studies. There isn't a scientific study on literally everything accounting for every possible variable, and things vary from person to person. It makes sense to take anecdotal evidence into account where documented experimentation may be lacking.

@@snoozyq9576 just cut out breads refined carbs and sugars as much as possible start small and work your way up
Best thing to do is finding the best meal plan for the day and repeating it over and over to start. Find something that gives what you need nutritionally and energy wise and eat that every day. So start with finding a good breakfast, lunch, and dinner that satisfies your cravings, gives you your necessary nutrients (which you can also find pills and supplements for). Track if it's giving you the recommended amount of minerals such as iron, potassium, calcium, etc and eat that everyday. Then add another meal plan after you get sick of that. And now you have two days worth of meals you can prepare and alternate every other day. Slowly add more and more until you finally have a whole week planned out and written down. Then life gets easy. It comes down to restocking the ingredients needed and fucking cooking it. Once you have done this it really helps you stay on course and away from donuts, bread, and other foods that are bad for you. Get your shit together
No you don't. Does Joe sound happy to you? No, he freaks out about food. Fuck that. Live like a Rockstar...
No famous/well respected artist ever had a strict diet.
Everything joe said at the end is true. I was depressed and in a shitty relationship and really didn’t get much sleep so I ate alot of crappy food in between the times I should’ve been asleep. And then you wake up do it all over sleeping in late eating carby meals. I went from 280 to 210
Things that reduce chronic inflammation. Nutritional ketosis, fasting and hiit cardio.
I stopped eating almost all refined sugars, and went low carb, cut processed foods too and I lost 40lbs from Oct-March doing very little excercise just walking my dog here and there.
Weight loss on a particular diet does not show the quality of said diet
Bc you were in a calorie deficit.
I have done the same and went keto. I have lost 50lbs in 4 months. I started forcing myself to eat so I would't lose it too fast.
Lost 50 lbs doing the same thing as you it works! It took 15 months for me though.
And u dream about pizza every night
Preach ! I lost 30 pounds once cutting out carbs and processed foods. Cholesterol became perfect my fatty liver GONE glucose perfect. My body gets sick if I add sugar back in. Joe is right 👍
You are what you eat. A little bread here and there I don't think is bad really. But, anything processed is a no for me. I eat nothing that comes in a packaged bag. Fast food, stay away from it! Just eat real food like they said. Meat, fruits, veggies. Simple. Now, beer is still the issue, lol; but, it's made from water and plant parts.... :P

Now I have a good job with good pay, I spend less time at work, afford a gym membership and can afford to eat a better diet.
Cortisol (stress hormone) released in excess, ages the brain and skin. Hydration levels can also effect cortisol release.

I’ve cut nearly all sugar and breads out of my diet for the last 6 months and I’ve never felt better in my life. Lost 22 pounds and never get that insulin crash anymore. It’s unreal how my sugar/carb cravings are virtually non-existent now and it’s just become easy.
Make sure it's the artificial sugars and not natural.

I've been eating a carnivore diet since Feb 15th of this year. I have eaten grapes and watermelon, at different times, and went straight back to the arthritis type pain in my hip and back.

My GF’s doctor AND endocrinologist can’t give her a straight answer about her recently diagnosed “sub-clinical hypothyroidism”.
Nor will they refer her to a dietitian or nutritionist to help with dietary needs.
She has gained 30 pounds in the past two years, despite working out six days a week and watching her portion sizes.
She’s been put on various thyroid meds, and no drug or dosage helps with her fatigue, continuous weight gain and hair thinning.
She was looking into trying out the ketogenic diet, because she’s also insulin-resistant having an under active thyroid, and keto helps with people who have that issue, by lowering or eliminating the intake of bad refined carbs (anything from a packet or a box).
But then she heard that keto can put further strain on the thyroid and cause a whole host of other issues in the body. She also read that exercise can stress a hypothyroid body, further exacerbating symptoms.
Since she cannot get an answer on the optimal diet or exercise for her condition. Back to square one, and she feels helpless. I’m not a doctor, but I wish I were. I can only google so much with her until it becomes a fucking abyss of marketing ads and money-making fads. This is frustrating.
*Any helpful suggestions out there?*

I also have hashimoto's and PCOS. Also rosacea has recently developed, which is supposed to be hormonal. I recommend her check out www.reddit.com/r/hashimotos if she hasn't already. At least it helps you feel not so alone. Also extended fasting has helped me lose weight during quarantine. Cutting out all sugar and carbs except for 90% dark chocolate and fruit / veg seems to help. Unfortunately we can't just eat less and exercise. It's a whole lifestyle adjustment. I don't know if I'll be able to keep this up when I go back to work but for now it's working. Good luck, hope she finds something that helps

@@RustySpoons6490 I have a few cousins with thyroid issues.

You are 100% correct. When I can stay on meat and veggies with a random "cheat day", I feel so good.
But, I had surgery a few months ago and I certainly slipped off of my diet. I quickly gained 25 pounds and have inflammation in my legs. It is amazing what effect you diet can have.

@@Ray-wp4ji you know yourself better than anyone else
While i am 100% onboard with keto, i wish people wouldn't be so judgmental and try to be the health police. It's about finding what works for YOUR body and what YOU will stick to consistently. Find a lifestyle that is healthy and sustainable and don't worry about anyone that says their way is better, as long as your way is HEALTHY and working for you and you feel good.
It seems like diet has become almost as controversial as politics and religion. I agree, it's very subjective. What works for you might not work for me.
I find this unsettling for the people who still are obese and continue to eat high calorie diets but don’t use any good amount of that energy. Basically put in enough work to equal the amount of calories you put in.
zParallaxz calories matter of course but it’s not that simple. The type of calories you eat do matter. 500 calories in fat and protein are going to last a lot longer in your body and give you a level amount of energy versus 500 calories of pasta which will give you a spike of energy then a crash when it’s over.
lorridzak I’m not talking about people who actually will learn about the difference between starches and proteins. I’m referring to the average joe or mom who keeps eating highly processed foods and snacks while not burning enough of the calories they consume. I.e soda isn’t good for you, but if your keeping active by moving all day and walking a dog per say, the effects lessen.
Simple right!

I've always preferred bread made with as much whole bran is as possible. I think it does, to some extent, negate the carb spike-and-crash effect described.

I don't know if these different groups are always shitting on each other and they both work but I know from my own experience that a true vegan diet is very healthy, for me the meat and dairy make me very sick.

Genetics do play a role. But Don't make the mistake of blaming that first
AndysGeneral it’s surprising how little inherited genes plays a role in disease when you look up the actual numbers particularly auto immune diseases and cancer. It’s very weak indeed.
Can't believe that Joe mentioned Thoreau's famous quote, " Most men live lives of quiet desperation." When I heard that in English class in high school, I related to it so well and have had that as my all time favorite quotes that I've had in my back pocket all these years.
I lost 65 lbs since December off of this, man. Occasionally cheated when special occasions came around, but otherwise stuck to it. Absolutely legit, and I'd recommend it to anyone!!
My diet since 3 months is pure vegetables fruit and meat. Zero sugar. Very minimal carbs. In the past this plus intense exercise weight melts.
Like you, Joe. I strongly believe BALANCE is the key to health. Not everything works for everyone, but the basics healthy foods does work for everyone.
Balance is what has worked best for me. I found. I'm not a red meat eater. Not anymore. Super rare I'll have it. I'm more into chicken, salmon, other fish, eggs, veggies, fruits, etc. I try to control the carb. And I do feel best when I fast 2-4 times a week, whether for half a day, go very light that day or just go on water for a 1-2 days.
I mostly drink water. Zero sodas. Juicing and all natural once in while. Like frappe, love them, I control it.
The best you can do is always keep trying to eat healthy and what's best for you, your mind, and body.
True for everything in life, BALANCE!

Watching this clip for the first time. Right at about 9 minutes in when the guys are talking about most Americans: working, feeling sad, Wendy’s, coffee, staying up, less sleep feel like crap, then start over again. Joe called it a roller coaster, I like to refer to it as the hamster wheel, but that’s what I was doing and what a lot of people do, and don’t even think about it. It’s so true, and that diet can not only kill you but at best make you feel sick, inflamed, depressed and here you are trying to figure out why. Why do I feel sick? Why does my entire body hurt? Why do I feel brain dead? Bingo!!!

Sugar story. Here the UK I went to an event at Dunster Castle in the southwest. Years ago there was ships coming into port with spoils from abroad mainly India, sugar was a high value import. The funny bit. Sugar was very expensive so the poor and working class couldn't afford it. Years later the royals and wealthy all had teeth issues. And the poor didn't. Yet they didn't see the connection and instead turned to letting which is when they believed it was a poison in the blood so they would bleed people and depending on their birth month depended on where they would be cut. Absolutely true. You ever noticed a traditional barber shop has white poles with red lines around ? Before the barber was cutting hair they where cutting people and the red lines on a white pole represents blood running down the pole. Nuts hey, while your here why don't I cut your hair. And the modern day barber shop was created
They done surgery in barber shops
Mr Rogan has so much clarity & depth! Minus the abuses, he would have been a Saint by now!
This is a breath of fresh air. I thought my morning crashes are caused by me being a night owl. I don’t get crashes when I’m not eating carbs for breakfast. Even a half-serving of brown rice in the morning is enough for a mild crash. A single fucking pancake will knock me out cold halfway before lunch. The only good thing about brown rice is that I don’t find it as appetizing, and end up eating less carbs overall. Days where I eat less carbs are overall better than carb rich days. Even my gut shrinks when I eat less carbs.
He's not lying. I just love carbs though. No wonder I move like a slug.

I have PCOS, I learned recently that carbs and suger make my symptoms worse and stop me from being able to get pregnant. So I've decided to go no carb and no suger for a year and see what happens. I have tried keto for about 2 months before I had covid and my hirsutism wasn't showing up as much. Wish me luck!
I appreciate the director's open minded approach. I'm not a vegetarian for health reasons but for ethical reasons so when j people reduce the argument for or against eating meat to health they miss a huge part of why so many people don't eat meat. Any diet where you are mindful of where the food comes from and what it does for your body is going to be better than one where you just mindlessly eat what tastes good in the moment.
I tried vegan for awhile for health and moral reasons, it eventually made me feel worse and I learned about how many animals are killed and displaced from all the plants I was eating anyway.. now I just try to find the most ethically raised animal products I can because factory farming of animals is horrendous

15:00 onwards. So I had black strap mollasses recently for the last 6 months, 1-2 table spoons a day. now i have been diagnozed with chronic kidney disease. im super accurate with my overall diet so could this be the sole reason? i have absolutely no other reason to blame.
We've been switching between keto and carnivore with occasional carb loads after a heavy lift day. It's amazing.
I make my own keto wonder bread. So awesome.
Great documentary
I've been for some years (especially since I moved from the states back to Europe) instinctively focsuing my eating habits on natural, whole, and unprocessed foods as much as possible. Sometimes I'm told I eat "boring", but the more I hear about actual dietary science the more it comforts me into what I've already been doing this whole time. Whenever I slip tho (damn you munchies) or am forced to eat industrial crap, the old sensations of feeling heavy, tired, moody etc come back in a blink, which I would not notice back then since I was feeling like shit all the time..
keto is good but whole foods, plant based is even better imo.
Carbs from vegetables are not bad. The blue zones all ate 80% of their calories from carbs in whole foods.
Meat is great but it's too much of a hassle for me to consistently get high quality farm raised meat. I don't buy factory farmed meat. Sardines are great but not necessary to consume all the time.
t3hgir it’s easier for most people to find farm animals than to do a plant based diet properly, just saying one is not better than the other based on subjective access to choices
Blue zones also had 8 other factors like your social life, spirituality and more that contributed to their longevity. Diet is just 1 of 9 factors.
This is for processed sugar. Carbs are essential for athletes that train for hours a day. Eating oatmeal, fruit and nut butters aren’t going to make you crash.

@@johnalcala The level of ignorance to say something like that. The human body evolved primarily using carbs as fuel in the form of fruits, veggies, AND whole grains (agriculture and shit). There's a reason your brain uses glucose, a sugar, as its primary means of fuel, and that you have blood sugar levels. Eating whole wheat bread is not going to give you an insulin spike and crash. White bread is. Carbs are not the enemy, refined carbs (fibres and other micronutrients removed) are. There's a difference.

Exercising is easy to make a routine of, but man changing your food habits is TOUGH
Im going to watch this everyday until I eat healthy
Joe get Dr. Berg on the show
Ariusz00 That will be amazing
Ariusz00 yes!!
I can attest to this while I'm not 100% keto or even in ketosis I'm more with Joe of moderation, I cheat here and there but over all I've cut sugar probably 75% from before and carbs dramatically. My main sugar intake was absolutely from beverages and i've cut sugar to only small amounts in my food(non from beverages), carbs are way down, increased the amount of vegetable's, some fruit, cut dairy way down but mostly all whole foods and very little processed crap, no snacking because I'm not hungry between meals because I'm eating good so I'm only eating 3 meals a day. I'm down 25lbs which took me off the edge of being overweight, way more energy, joints feel better, sleeping way better.
Had a Dominoes pizza two days ago and my knees are now inflamed
I'm gonna go on a diet now because of this video
After dropping 50lbs in 5 months on keto, I actually want to work out. I could not fathom exercising on my previous standard american diet

Bread and grains have been the staple of life for every culture on earth. Hard to think they could be that bad for you.
