Hardly anyone talks about the antinutrients in nuts, seed, fruits and vegetables. I ate all these things everyday and got sick, sicker and more sick. My hair fell out, my skin dried out I began gaining weight despite regulating my calories, I fell into clinical depression, my joints began to swell and stiffen, my knees were hurting could barely walk, migraines, cervical deterioration, My nerves were hurting and going numb in my arms and legs, my eye sight was rapidly declining, I wanted to die, I was dying. I found the Carnivore diet, threw out all the grain, seeds, veges and my body has been turning round every day. Just 2 months in of eating eggs, butter bacon and beef, my hair is growing back and in the color it used to be when I was young! My fingers don't hurt like they used too, I'm walking a lot more and even sprinting a little! My thyroid is improving, my skin has improved soooo much! I look younger than I did and it's a shock when I look in the mirror! I've not felt like dying anymore. I'm not depressed, I feel more calm inside. I've lost weight where I needed it most, and best of all I don't feel like I'm suffering eating this way. I was literally malnutritioned. And the fact that my body is reversing my aging proves that point since I began eating only animal protein and fats.
Please be careful, you are likely eating more than the recommended maximum amount of 10% saturated fat in your diet which can raise your level of LDL cholesterol which increases your chances of having a heart attack or stroke. Red meat has of course been implicated in colon cancer. It could be that you have an allergy to something you were eating - you could try gradually introducing the vegetables nuts etc. one at a time to see which ones you are allergic to or have a problem with. Trying to live on only meat and fats could have serious health consequences long term and you will be missing out on a lot of micronutrients. You might also want to get your GP. and a nutritionist involved. Good luck, I hope things work out for you.
My wife and I believed the food pyramid lies and ate a vegetable/fruit rich diet and for a few years she was vegetarian. As we aged we started getting a few problems which you put down to just getting old. But after a shock diagnosis where all the recommendations were what we were doing already we did our own research and went Keto. Huge improvement in health and mental clarity. I was off medication after 30 years of prescriptions! The change was so good we are nearing carnivore. Just amazed at how indoctrinated we are by the big food industries into the lies that are leading people into ever increasing poor health outcomes. As our consumption of seed (plant oils), carbohydrates and oxalates (many plants) has increased so have our health problems. Governments just pump money into the medical industry but it cannot keep up with deteriorating outcomes, which of course is the individuals fault.
Love Zoe Harcombe. I’ve been eating the carnivore way for the last nearly 4 years after years and years of eating low fat / high fibre which ruined my health. We’ve been lied to folks.
Had to drop the veggies and nuts after a couple decades of low fat vegetarian. Was killing me. Now almost a year carnivore and I’m healing. So much better..
It is nice to see someone is "smelling the coffe" from deep inside the ecco chamber of vegggggggies. I have been living in Ketosis since 2004. Carnivore 100% since 2019 and have never felt better. I can run fast and enjoy living at the 17th floor using the stairs now when I soon turn 66. Thank you both for making this giggely fun presentation of the carnivore diet. Dr. Anthont Chaffee has tons of good advice regarding meat water and salt. Thank you very much for all these nice laughs. ❤❤❤❤❤ PS. Read aboug Oxalates in vegetables and get her on your program : Sally K. Norton. You will have more jawdropping fun with Anthony Chaffees movie called"Vegetables wants to kill you". With love. Thanx again.
I was astonished to learn about this info earlier in the year when I watched a presentation from Dr. Sally K Norton (US doctor) who explains how oxalates can be ruining your health. Thank you for this presentation.
Zoe is brilliant, smart, eloquent and down to earth. She knows her stuff and everyone should listen to her regarding what to eat and what to avoid. If you do nothing else, dont eat anything man made and stick to whole natural foods and you're on the right path. 🎉
Folks, think about this...our soil has been over farmed to death and has no nutrients left. Where are the plants supposed to get nutrients? Grass fed cows live on very healthy organic greens.
I have listened to Zoe many times and have found her to be very knowledgeable and down to earth with everything. Glynis hun, you’ve got a lot to learn. I’m amazed and delighted at the amount of comments agreeing with Zoe. Maybe we are slowing moving away from the nonsense we’ve been brainwashed into believing. All this food pyramid rubbish, 5 a day, low-fat nonsense. I hate to sound rude and I honestly don’t mean to offend but Glynis you sound as though you don’t believe Zoe and I don’t blame you. It took me a long time and a lot of research to realise this is factual advice. It’s true we’ve been lied to.
I'm aware of the the importance of fat and protein and have been writing about it for many years. However, the fact that vegetables are not as nutritious as we have been led to believe was a surprise. I would always believe Zoë but can still be surprised. I know that this would've been new info for many of my followers as well, so important to talk it through and ask questions. That's why I get experts like Zoë on my channel so we can continue learning. She's certainly rocked my world with these interviews!
@@AgelessbyGlynisBarberJ.R. Kellogg was pals with the Rockefellers and Rothschild's and the rest of the early global eugenicists... But it was as far back as kings & queens and lords bemoaning the quantity of the poor ...many conflicts in Asia were repeatedly done purposely to cull population in waves...to the very same areas every 20 to 30 years for thousands of years....
Something that's always puzzled me is - what fruits or vegetables did our predecessors eat during the ice ages? Apparently, according to the Smithsonian Magazine, the maximum surface air temperature during the last ice age, even at the equator, was about -4°C. In Europe and North America it was around -12°C. What sort of fruits or vegetables could grow at those temperatures?
Good day! I stumbled on your youtube most likely because I just discovered Zoe Harcombe. She is REFRESHING and knowledgeable. I started Keto at the beginning of Covid because I decided I was not going to stress eat and ended up losing 40 pounds and my husband 45 pounds. I have been learning about oxalates, phytates and lectins along the way and have reduced veggies (lots of oxalates) and fruits ( sugars) I no longer eat nuts (phytates and carb count) . It is mind blowing to have been set straight on TRUE nutrition as opposed to the food propaganda that has been shoved down our throats. Thank you for having Zoe on and I look forward to hearing from her again. I hope that you can take constructive criticism so here goes: Please try to allow Zoe to finish her thoughts because a number of your questions and her comments were cut short because she was interrupted. Please take this in the best possible way. Perhaps allowing for a longer interview? I would have stayed for an hour or two for sure.
Thank you for your comments, I always welcome constructive criticism. It's quite hard, specially on Zoom, to have a natural flow sometimes. How fascinating that you've made these changes and have had such good results. There is so much to learn and so much contradicting information. This is why I just love talking to people like Zoë who is all about the data and the facts.
I have to admit that I started with Dr. Eric Berg and lost most of the weight through Keto however, I am feeling much much better on a predominately carnivore diet. I have listened to a couple of Zoe’s messages and I am thankful that more folks like yourself are picking up on this information because I CAN”T STAND that we have been SO lied to…..

Zoe is great, I could listen to her all day long. I'm carnivore and she knows her stuff, cavemen didn't have vegs because they are a relatively new food from the last few thousand years being modified by humans to grow as they do, broccoli or kale or even carrots are new! I also think she'd be a great laugh down the pub!
Great straight talking podcast. Thank you. I have been Keto for a year now. I eat rice and potatoes in the evening and some fruit! But wow has life changed for me. Migraines gone. Memory better. Energy levels are so much higher. It’s been a very positive change and I am not going back, especially to wheat and sugar 😃
@@kimbucha1 to be honest I do not know if i am always in Ketosis or would want to be but I think the majority of the time I am using fats for energy not sugars and that is probably the positive difference for my body.
If you're eating rice, potatoes and friut, you're not doing keto, because you're not in ketosis.. It's like people saying I'm vegetarian but I eat fish. You're doing low-carb, which is great if it works for.
You’re staying away from processed foods including processed wheat and sugar. That’s great! You also lowered carbs, but probably not really Keto, since Randle Cycle is kicked in often, unless starches and fruit are rare, but eliminating the processed crap would definitely make you feel much better.
Love Dr Zoe ! I was low fat vegetarian diet with a low cholesterol level for 40 years and was becoming unhealthy eating so called healthy low fat. Never smoking, no drugs. 4 year ago i switched to higher fat animal based foods diet and started feeling better within days ! Feeling fantastic now after 4 years of animal based foods diet ! Have my strength and muscle back with weight lifting and sprinting, brain fog gone, joint pains gone never get sick now ! Will NEVER go back to low fat plant based diet 🤮. Feeling the best i have ever in my life !
It is appraent that Zoe was facing someone who needs to read more on nutritions that are good for metabolic health, rather than subscribing to the popular propaganda or belief which promotes the food pyramid.
It is possible that the host was playing Devil’s Advocate or asking questions to guide the conversation to the science. However, she does sound contradictory for the sake of it. She’s disputing facts if she’s not eating that way. She gave up red meat, she eats loads of nuts, and she’s never heard veggies are The Best so she has to insert her opinion. I trust Dr ZH. The host, I don’t know her. 🤷🏻♀️
@@erickachavez24Glynis was makepiece in Dempsey and Makepiece and actually married her co star. I'm old enough to remember watching it on TV like most young men of that time.
Thank you, I am so interested in this. Vegetables no longer agree with me and I had been worried I was harming my health by no longer eating so many vegetables. I feel so much better knowing that my research ties in with this. Yes, essential nutrients- liver, oily fish, eggs, dairy etc seems the way to go. Organic too. Thank you again
I'm hearing more and more about people who have reactions to vegetables. I had no idea to be honest but just goes to show we're all different and we need to listen to what our bodies are telling us.
Glynis, these ate the questions you shoukd ask these keto/carnivores, where are the meat based centenarians? Dairy and prostate/breast cancer risk is there. I could crush this ladys arguments very easily
What about the anti nutrients? The inability to metabolize or utilize many of the nutrients in veg or fruit? What about the oxalates & lectins…leaky gut & arthritis aggravated by plants?
Milk is also a carb and fat protein, plus some people have an enzyme that cleaves the a1 beta-casein into beta-casomorphin-7, an opioid which can have all sorts of inflammatory effects in your body incuding intestinal stasis. There's no test for it but if you feel fluid dairy and/or cheese cause issues maybe switch to a2 milk if you can source somewhere.
On the contrary, the great Glynis Barber should have challenged Zoe more- no mention of red meat being a carcinogen or that the amount of saturated fat in a meat based diet is linked to heart disease.
@kipperdog. We've evolved for hundreds of thousands of years as hyper carnivores and you reckon meat causes cancer and heart disease ?😂 You really are an ill educated W⚓
@@kipperdog7950 do you even criticize the quality of evidence? So silly you are still spouting bought out science that has no stance in truth. Meat and saturated fat are not bad.

When Zoe say's "I did maths at Cambridge" it's code for STFU! 😍
My grandfather, farmer, carried a pocket knife, he used it to peel his fruit, he suspected way back that the poisons used, penetrated the skins. I am a suburban veggie gardener and I plant my veggies in a way where they are a bit mixed up and spread out and I do slow harvesting, noticing which way the wind blows, giving the veggies time to recover from being harvested. Why? In nature if a giraffe eats on a tree, it eats for a bit and then moves up wind to the next tree. I suspect that veggies talk to one another the same way that trees do, chemically and spread the word by the wind blowing the chemicals to the ones down wind. Farmers do not harvest this way or give the veggies time to shed the chemicals, known as oxilates. I am 69, exercise hard with weights 3 times a week, watch my carbs, eat in season fruit only in my area, have some fruit trees. Eat everything.
I agree olive oil aint all that, or any highly processed food. But fruit does have nutrition and i feel great for them. Oranges great for digestion and teeth. Had mangoes, fab again. Colour etc maybe also subtle life energy. Zoe reflects her diet hard, not sweet.
I think we need to consider the advantage of masticating juicers that separate the liquid from the fibre. This has saved me in severe autoimmune condition ITP. My is green juice, but I cannot have carrot or beet juice might be for the same reason that I cannot convert beta carotene. to Vit A. I tried carnivore but it made my ITP worse. But I do have grassfed beef for sure.
My first question is how often do you have a bowel movement when eating like this? Is it not baf to cut out all fibre? Secondly, how should the meat be prepared?
I have just subscribed and am very interested in your content I have a question about salmon we all know it's good for us omega 3 etc But I found out it's the most toxic food Do you eat salmon and what is the best wild tinned frozen farmed It's very confusing could you give some information about this Thank you so much 🙏
Salmon in itself is extremely healthy. However farmed salmon is a whole different story and I avoid it completely. I always go for wild salmon or tinned salmon as all tinned salmon is wild.
The argument that pre-agricultural peoples were eating vegetables and fruit is a strawman. Of course, they ate what they could find, but there is absolutely zero comparison to our modern idea of veg/fruit consumption. The produce itself was remarkably different, not as palatable and had a very brief window for gathering. They did NOT have a grocery store stocked with produce from multiple continents.
Her answer would be that you increase glutathione the bodys master antioxidant by eating meats, polyphenolic compounds come with oxolates, salicalates etc so can cause inflammation as well as have anti inflammatory affects, this will be the answer
There are absolutely NO cell receptors or biochemical reactions in the body which can utilize polyphenols and antioxidants from plants. These are chemical compounds meant for PLANTS ONLY! Not even herbivores can utilize them either as they serve NO function in their bodies either, that's why they have specialized bacteria to destroy and detox them out.
Polyphenols are not essential and the body makes its own antioxidants far more powerful than anything found in a plant. You can also ground yourself for an increased antioxidant effect.
I want to know more because I’ve tried every diet and got nowhere, I’m fed up and Glynis’s reaction is exactly how I am right now! Blumming eck rub me out and start again!!😱
It’s not difficult as far as what to eat: meat, butter, eggs, oily fish. Avoid processed food, sugar, grains, and vegetable/seed oils. Keep carbs low enough that you go into ketosis on the regular or don’t eat any carbs. While carbs are not necessary, not everyone needs to eliminate them all. Check out Dr. Ken Berry. He’s very good at summarizing what eating this way is all about.
Well whatever Dr. Zoë Harcombe loves to eat, it looks to be producing good results. She may be working with the wrong premise and that is what we need to be optimizing. It doesn't seem obvious that we need to optimise for the RDAs (one thing to have the numbers, another to be using them in the appropriate noddle). Missing from this interesting chat was the microbiome, We're more an ecosystem than we are a nutrient endpoint, and given approximately 95% of total body serotonin is produced in the gut for eg., I would presume we shouldn't be optimizing form nutrient needs defined at a time before the mass destruction of our microbiome. Rather we should create a new datum for the like the needs of our gut's microbiome in a world disconnected from natural ecosystems, overloaded with Endocrine-disrupting chemicals, Per- and polyfluorinated alkyl substances and antibiotics, etc. (looking at Jordan Peterson, I'm not convinced his stake addiction is a permanent condition, but a re-balancing of his microbiome.)
🙏🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🙏🏼 During the Cave Men days, Fruit Orchards and more importantly Vegetable farms Do Not exists. So fruits and vegetables are only available by location and are time restricted by seasons. So the predominant food source would have to be wild animals and fishes, again, by location.
Dear Glynis Barber, Many Thanks for your 🩷 in respect of my abridged comment. The following is my full and more detailed one: In Nature Plants of the same kind DO NOT tend to grow in large areas at any one time. But like Everything Else on Planet Earth, there will Always be Exceptions. For example, wild flowers do cover vast tracts of land in Spring. But natural fruit orchards and vegetable farms are a rare occurrence in nature. Furthermore, they’re location specific and their growth and or fruit production are season specific hence not all ancient humans have access to them. So, the only stable source of food for our ancient ancestors would be wild animal and or marine animals if they live near large bodies of water. This explains why Eskimos live on whatever snow and or marine animals that they can kill in the arctic. And the Masai tribes live on cows and drink cow’s blood in the desert. Has anyone one heard of an ancient vegetarian/vegan ancient tribe that existed during the Stone Age? Anyway, it is a fact that factory farming animals is, indeed, harming the Environment but then so is mechanised vegetable & grain farming as well. So rather than one camp trying to accuse the other, let’s all compromise and proceed with organic farms and pasture raised livestock. In short, “ LET’S LIVE & LET LIVE. “ and “ TO EACH HIS OWN. “ “ Life Is Short. Live Like Hell. “ - B. Lee
The few veggies and fruit that our ancestors might have eaten in occasion are nothing like those of today! Thats very clear ! Todays veggies and most fruits are full of gmo and pesticides and very nutrients lacking and full of sugars. And recently studied show that high dairy is cardiovascular protective!
I agree with you except that every one of these people believe they have the facts, including Zoe . Zoe’s angle is coloured by nutrients alone ( assuming we know everything about these) she seems to ignore fibre. She also obviously coloured by her experience in her youth. Quoting science is helpful but science is like figures it depends on whose figures. There is a meat and dairy agenda but not sure big broccoli is a threat. I am 69 and not diabetic am not on cholesterol pills or blood pressure tablets, I came close to both but I’m ok now, so what took me towards all those things, even though I cook good food? If you eat too much protein it turns into fat, which helps give you diabetes,where else does it go ? I will leave you in peace now. ( dates give you loads of fibre and sugar, that’s why you can live on them in the desert )
Hi Bev, Zoe actually does speak on Fibre. In fact she has a whole section elsewhere dedicated to it where she shows that fibre is completely unnecessary. She refers to its scientific translation as " many indigestible sugars" She is not a fan. Her book convinced me that fibre is not only unnecesary but harmful
@@peterv1436 if you gotta "wild" chicken FROM it's natural habitat: the jungle. ...or if you ate a Carnivore FED Chicken... because chickens ARE CARNIVORES...!!!!! you would "probably" have a different experience...
Chicken livers are nice. Lambs liver was prescribed to me when I was about 7 years, cooked in butter for 2 minutes each side, three times a week, I quite liked it then.
Interesting that you include eating meat and dairy to the big Pharma industry when most of the people switching into keto or carnivore do it exactly to heal from a lot of metabolic deseases they suffer all of their lives . All the best
It's not a fact and the blue zones have been debunked. Look into the term, it's be patented - it is owned by The Seventh Day Adventists, who are very pro vegan. Every Blue Zone has a history of eating a lot of animal products, they just decided not to mention it.
The so-called Blue Zones eat TONS of red meat: lamb, goat, beef, and even wild game. Even in Loma Linda the Adventists eat meat by sneaking out of the compound and eating it. Some even sneak it into their homes and cook it in secret. I know many of them and this is very very common but never openly discussed.
Was this released on April 1st? Vegetables not good for you? - All the evidence points the other way. Also comparing vitamin C levels in apples and liver? Apples are not a very good source of vitamin C
Critical comments about Glynis are unfair. She asked good questions. Zoe is not correct and ignores issue of horrific factory farming. She's narrow in her focus. My family are pure vegetarian, many in theor 90s and healthy. Diabetes is an issue for my ethnicity, hence i started eating meat and fish.
It still doesn't change the nutritional truth. What you or I believe doesn't matter. The standard American diet (and every other developed nation) is full of processed food that is long term poison for us. Fruits and vegetables are full of anti-nutrients. We need animal protein and fat. There are reasons we've been told the wrong information, it isn't a conspiracy, it's capitalism. The companies making the processed food want to stay in business and continue to sell you their products. The pharmaceutical companies want to continue to sell you remedies for the ills caused by the processed food. They work together hand in hand. Processed food and pharmaceuticals are a trillion dollar business. Again, it's not conspiracy it's capitalism. I hope you take the time to learn. I've spent the past 9-10 years reading and researching. I'm an attorney by profession but this has become my passion. My health is better than it has ever been. I eat grass-fed, grass-finished beef, eggs from pasture-raised chickens, a small amount of dairy from pasture raised cows. I'll eat wild caught fish. We need animal fat. I'm almost never hungry between meals, I eat until I'm full. I do have coffee still but with heavy cream. My endurance is great, I look forward to working out and biking. Don't let the reference to cavemen deter you.
No , the science is not saying this, read some of the top nutritionists and world wide health statistics. Start with Dr. Greger et all , food is not just single nutrients it is more complex . Tell the Berbers dates are not good for them !
Dr Harcolme reviews all the research, this is what she does… . A lot is data is cherry picking to what fits their biases. As well as newer studies. And there are changes happening in the American Heart association and some doctors, but medical systems are slow to change. Often things change generational
I have a new video with Zoë coming out to answer some of this. But, hard as it is to accept, this is what the science says. It's the simple nutritional facts and I know it's different to what we've all been taught. Dr Greger is all about veganism so he's going to have a very different viewpoint.
I think this discussion shows how complex ( thank goodness) the arguments about food now are. There are some simple truths including the fact that people in certain areas have less illness and live longeretc. They tend to eat mostly whole foods and mainly vegetables, grains, fruits, nuts, some small amounts of fish and meat and dairy. The people who are really over doing the animal protein and processed stuff ( on a modern diet) are usually not in great health, with blocked arteries etc. When you look at a single food for its benefits ie: milk you can praise its calcium and other nutrients. It was assumed the calcium helped our bones, it’s a fact it doesn’t, Holland very dairy based has the worst osteoporosis. Milk also contains a lot of oestrogen, which is not advised, having had breast cancer I avoid it. Fruit and veg are mainly water, with fibre and nutrients, that is the point. Dr Greger doesn’t describe himself as a Vegan. His books and website are based on gathering all the papers written on a food or illness and boiling them down for regular people, the money goes to charity . He is not pushing a point he is trying to stop people dying of diabetes and heart disease. He not the only one, Dean Ornish, T Colin Campbell, Dan Buettner our own Dr Chattergee and many more have spent their lives on these studies. Nutritionists are ranging from A to Z and back and we have work out our own way, whatever you are doing seems to be working. I was a chef and omnivore but I have moved towards Wholefood plant based after watching people’s health fail and having a fright of my own. It’s working for me. xx
@@beverleygarrett5818 yes and every nutritionist has their own view point and personal preference including Dan Buettner. A lot of them favour plant based diets. However, with Zoë she's not sharing her opinion but the actual nutritional facts about each food. This is what she does and where her considerable expertise is. However, as you say, we should all follow what works for us. As long as we are avoiding highly processed foods and eating whole foods, we are much more likely to remain healthy.
Something seemed odd, so I did some research of my own. Dr Harcombe is/was involved with Meat Promotion Wales, In 2020 World Cancer Research said her quote that there was no evidence for 5 a day and that exercise makes you hungry was ‘Bad Advice’, Dr Harcombe has 18 books on Amazon, basically diet books. Perhaps Ageless should interview someone on the other side of the argument for balance, perhaps Dr. Alan Desmond would be good?
This is utter BS. The mere fact that we can only find vitamin C in vegetables, since we don't synthetize it, and that a lot of human get calcium from vegetables, you know those humans who don't drink milk, show you we must eat vegetables. Eat meat if you want, but you better eat vegetables too.
I was obese with hypertension and pre diabetic, I quite alcohol ,veg and fruit ( all sugars and carbohydrates) I went from 15 stones to 12, I am no longer ill. All of my aches and pains have gone and my BP has gone back to normal, my BM heart rate is as low as 51 BPM. I eat Bacon and eggs in the morning and rib eye. So philippe it’s most definitely not Bull shit my friend.
You only get scurvy if you consume carbohydrates on account of the fact that glucose and ascorbic acid both compete for the same transporters on your cell membranes (GLUT-4). It's why European sailors eating nothing but salt pork and ships biscuits used to get scruvy but Inuit eating nothing but fish and seal meat did not.
The argument that pre-agricultural peoples were eating vegetables and fruit is a strawman. Of course, they ate what they could find, but there is absolutely zero comparison to our modern idea of veg/fruit consumption. The produce itself was remarkably different, not as palatable and had a very brief window for gathering. They did NOT have a grocery store stocked with produce from multiple continents.

I’m amazed and delighted at the amount of comments agreeing with Zoe. Maybe we are slowing moving away from the nonsense we’ve been brainwashed into believing. All this food pyramid rubbish, 5 a day, low-fat nonsense.
I hate to sound rude and I honestly don’t mean to offend but Glynis you sound as though you don’t believe Zoe and I don’t blame you. It took me a long time and a lot of research to realise this is factual advice. It’s true we’ve been lied to.
I'm aware of the the importance of fat and protein and have been writing about it for many years. However, the fact that vegetables are not as nutritious as we have been led to believe was a surprise. I would always believe Zoë but can still be surprised. I know that this would've been new info for many of my followers as well, so important to talk it through and ask questions. That's why I get experts like Zoë on my channel so we can continue learning. She's certainly rocked my world with these interviews!
@@AgelessbyGlynisBarberwe have ALL been lied to for far more than a hundred years...

Brilliant video, more please.
Something that's always puzzled me is - what fruits or vegetables did our predecessors eat during the ice ages? Apparently, according to the Smithsonian Magazine, the maximum surface air temperature during the last ice age, even at the equator, was about -4°C. In Europe and North America it was around -12°C. What sort of fruits or vegetables could grow at those temperatures?
Great questions Glynis 👍
Good day! I stumbled on your youtube most likely because I just discovered Zoe Harcombe. She is REFRESHING and knowledgeable. I started Keto at the beginning of Covid because I decided I was not going to stress eat and ended up losing 40 pounds and my husband 45 pounds. I have been learning about oxalates, phytates and lectins along the way and have reduced veggies (lots of oxalates) and fruits ( sugars) I no longer eat nuts (phytates and carb count) . It is mind blowing to have been set straight on TRUE nutrition as opposed to the food propaganda that has been shoved down our throats. Thank you for having Zoe on and I look forward to hearing from her again. I hope that you can take constructive criticism so here goes: Please try to allow Zoe to finish her thoughts because a number of your questions and her comments were cut short because she was interrupted. Please take this in the best possible way. Perhaps allowing for a longer interview? I would have stayed for an hour or two for sure.
Thank you for your comments, I always welcome constructive criticism. It's quite hard, specially on Zoom, to have a natural flow sometimes. How fascinating that you've made these changes and have had such good results. There is so much to learn and so much contradicting information. This is why I just love talking to people like Zoë who is all about the data and the facts.
I have to admit that I started with Dr. Eric Berg and lost most of the weight through Keto however, I am feeling much much better on a predominately carnivore diet. I have listened to a couple of Zoe’s messages and I am thankful that more folks like yourself are picking up on this information because I CAN”T STAND that we have been SO lied to…..
Zoe is great, I could listen to her all day long. I'm carnivore and she knows her stuff, cavemen didn't have vegs because they are a relatively new food from the last few thousand years being modified by humans to grow as they do, broccoli or kale or even carrots are new! I also think she'd be a great laugh down the pub!
Great straight talking podcast. Thank you.
I have been Keto for a year now. I eat rice and potatoes in the evening and some fruit! But wow has life changed for me. Migraines gone. Memory better. Energy levels are so much higher. It’s been a very positive change and I am not going back, especially to wheat and sugar 😃
May I ask : how do you maintain “ketosis” while consuming Rice and Potatoes?
@@kimbucha1 to be honest I do not know if i am always in Ketosis or would want to be but I think the majority of the time I am using fats for energy not sugars and that is probably the positive difference for my body.
If you're eating rice, potatoes and friut, you're not doing keto, because you're not in ketosis.. It's like people saying I'm vegetarian but I eat fish. You're doing low-carb, which is great if it works for.
@@williamf.9615 well whatever I’ve done it’s been life changing in a positive way. Have a good life 🐠
You’re staying away from processed foods including processed wheat and sugar. That’s great! You also lowered carbs, but probably not really Keto, since Randle Cycle is kicked in often, unless starches and fruit are rare, but eliminating the processed crap would definitely make you feel much better.
Zoe is the best ever
Love Dr Zoe ! I was low fat vegetarian diet with a low cholesterol level for 40 years and was becoming unhealthy eating so called healthy low fat. Never smoking, no drugs. 4 year ago i switched to higher fat animal based foods diet and started feeling better within days ! Feeling fantastic now after 4 years of animal based foods diet ! Have my strength and muscle back with weight lifting and sprinting, brain fog gone, joint pains gone never get sick now ! Will NEVER go back to low fat plant based diet 🤮. Feeling the best i have ever in my life !
It is appraent that Zoe was facing someone who needs to read more on nutritions that are good for metabolic health, rather than subscribing to the popular propaganda or belief which promotes the food pyramid.
The host has spent her life in the dark ages and her reactions are rather comedic.
I disagree I think she was open to hearing the truth..
It is possible that the host was playing Devil’s Advocate or asking questions to guide the conversation to the science. However, she does sound contradictory for the sake of it. She’s disputing facts if she’s not eating that way. She gave up red meat, she eats loads of nuts, and she’s never heard veggies are The Best so she has to insert her opinion. I trust Dr ZH. The host, I don’t know her. 🤷🏻♀️
@@erickachavez24Glynis was makepiece in Dempsey and Makepiece and actually married her co star. I'm old enough to remember watching it on TV like most young men of that time.
😜🤙
Thank you, I am so interested in this. Vegetables no longer agree with me and I had been worried I was harming my health by no longer eating so many vegetables. I feel so much better knowing that my research ties in with this. Yes, essential nutrients- liver, oily fish, eggs, dairy etc seems the way to go. Organic too. Thank you again
I'm hearing more and more about people who have reactions to vegetables. I had no idea to be honest but just goes to show we're all different and we need to listen to what our bodies are telling us.
Glynis, these ate the questions you shoukd ask these keto/carnivores, where are the meat based centenarians? Dairy and prostate/breast cancer risk is there. I could crush this ladys arguments very easily
She is right on the money.
I turned to Carnivore to help reduce my Hba1c and it worked a treat.
What about the anti nutrients? The inability to metabolize or utilize many of the nutrients in veg or fruit? What about the oxalates & lectins…leaky gut & arthritis aggravated by plants?
Milk is also a carb and fat protein, plus some people have an enzyme that cleaves the a1 beta-casein into beta-casomorphin-7, an opioid which can have all sorts of inflammatory effects in your body incuding intestinal stasis. There's no test for it but if you feel fluid dairy and/or cheese cause issues maybe switch to a2 milk if you can source somewhere.
My IQ level went down listening to this interviewer. Why couldn’t she just listen to Zoe and stop interrupting, she may have learned something.
On the contrary, the great Glynis Barber should have challenged Zoe more- no mention of red meat being a carcinogen or that the amount of saturated fat in a meat based diet is linked to heart disease.
@@kipperdog7950 😂 😂 😂
😂😂 He's doing a good job representing the Kool-aid drinkers out there.
@kipperdog. We've evolved for hundreds of thousands of years as hyper carnivores and you reckon meat causes cancer and heart disease ?😂 You really are an ill educated W⚓
@@kipperdog7950 do you even criticize the quality of evidence? So silly you are still spouting bought out science that has no stance in truth. Meat and saturated fat are not bad.
When Zoe say's "I did maths at Cambridge" it's code for STFU! 😍
Thank you for repairing the sound issue!
All of us tend to believe what we want to believe. Tell us what we want to hear, or tap into our fears and prejudices and we will follow that.
Fantastic 👏👏👏👏❤
Thank you Zoe for the science on foods.😀🥩
My grandfather, farmer, carried a pocket knife, he used it to peel his fruit, he suspected way back that the poisons used, penetrated the skins. I am a suburban veggie gardener and I plant my veggies in a way where they are a bit mixed up and spread out and I do slow harvesting, noticing which way the wind blows, giving the veggies time to recover from being harvested. Why? In nature if a giraffe eats on a tree, it eats for a bit and then moves up wind to the next tree. I suspect that veggies talk to one another the same way that trees do, chemically and spread the word by the wind blowing the chemicals to the ones down wind. Farmers do not harvest this way or give the veggies time to shed the chemicals, known as oxilates. I am 69, exercise hard with weights 3 times a week, watch my carbs, eat in season fruit only in my area, have some fruit trees. Eat everything.
I’ve watched many interviews with Zoe. Your interview is brilliant. Great questions and format. Well done. 👍 🙏
Thank you!
@@AgelessbyGlynisBarberplease interrupt the interviewee less, she rarely was allowed to finish her thouhjt
I love Zoe's knowledge and attitude. I've been carnivore for over 2 years now. It saved my life.
I agree olive oil aint all that, or any highly processed food. But fruit does have nutrition and i feel great for them. Oranges great for digestion and teeth. Had mangoes, fab again. Colour etc maybe also subtle life energy. Zoe reflects her diet hard, not sweet.
I'm So Interested Into Eating Super Healthy..
also our ancestors used to cooked prepare foods different. Look into weston a price foundation
I think we need to consider the advantage of masticating juicers that separate the liquid from the fibre. This has saved me in severe autoimmune condition ITP. My is green juice, but I cannot have carrot or beet juice might be for the same reason that I cannot convert beta carotene. to Vit A. I tried carnivore but it made my ITP worse. But I do have grassfed beef for sure.
“How nutitious? Are vegetables?” Confusing unless “nutitious” is a new enzyme or myokine that we don’t know. Please clarify.
So glad I found your video Zoe, I only feel better on meat ❤
13:13
I’ve never eaten animals and I’m 80 and there is nothing wrong with me
My first question is how often do you have a bowel movement when eating like this? Is it not baf to cut out all fibre?
Secondly, how should the meat be prepared?
The fat makes you regular. Fry with lard or dripping or cook in the meat fat itself.
The reason why fibre is needed on a high carb diet is simply because it doesn’t have any bulk whatsoever.
What about Eskimos...
I have just subscribed and am very interested in your content I have a question about salmon we all know it's good for us omega 3 etc But I found out it's the most toxic food
Do you eat salmon and what is the best wild tinned frozen farmed It's very confusing could you give some information about this
Thank you so much 🙏
Salmon in itself is extremely healthy. However farmed salmon is a whole different story and I avoid it completely. I always go for wild salmon or tinned salmon as all tinned salmon is wild.
Liver is amazing. I thrive on meat, three eggs everyday, low carb veggies, but not a lot. This works for me, no more health problems.
The argument that pre-agricultural peoples were eating vegetables and fruit is a strawman. Of course, they ate what they could find, but there is absolutely zero comparison to our modern idea of veg/fruit consumption. The produce itself was remarkably different, not as palatable and had a very brief window for gathering. They did NOT have a grocery store stocked with produce from multiple continents.
What about polyphenols and antioxidants?
I've got another video with Zoë posting this week!
Her answer would be that you increase glutathione the bodys master antioxidant by eating meats, polyphenolic compounds come with oxolates, salicalates etc so can cause inflammation as well as have anti inflammatory affects, this will be the answer
There are absolutely NO cell receptors or biochemical reactions in the body which can utilize polyphenols and antioxidants from plants. These are chemical compounds meant for PLANTS ONLY! Not even herbivores can utilize them either as they serve NO function in their bodies either, that's why they have specialized bacteria to destroy and detox them out.
Polyphenols are not essential and the body makes its own antioxidants far more powerful than anything found in a plant. You can also ground yourself for an increased antioxidant effect.
Can we have a link to Dr Zoe Haron’s website, I’ve googled her and she isn’t coming up. TIA
I want to know more because I’ve tried every diet and got nowhere, I’m fed up and Glynis’s reaction is exactly how I am right now! Blumming eck rub me out and start again!!😱
It's Dr Zoë Harcombe and should definitely come up if you google it. She also has a diet book which is well worth checking out.
It’s not difficult as far as what to eat: meat, butter, eggs, oily fish. Avoid processed food, sugar, grains, and vegetable/seed oils. Keep carbs low enough that you go into ketosis on the regular or don’t eat any carbs. While carbs are not necessary, not everyone needs to eliminate them all. Check out Dr. Ken Berry. He’s very good at summarizing what eating this way is all about.
Somebody tell

Has nothing to do with

❤️🔥❤️🔥 Love your channel ❤️🔥❤️🔥
thank you!
If she isn't a carnivore what does she eat? What's left?
It’s been reported there are no essentials minerals in carbohydrates. This is not new news.
Carbs = pure SUGAR and nothing else. The scientific definition of carbohydrate is: a chain of SUGAR molecules.
No depends what’s on the salad I put tons of beans
Well whatever Dr. Zoë Harcombe loves to eat, it looks to be producing good results. She may be working with the wrong premise and that is what we need to be optimizing. It doesn't seem obvious that we need to optimise for the RDAs (one thing to have the numbers, another to be using them in the appropriate noddle).
Missing from this interesting chat was the microbiome, We're more an ecosystem than we are a nutrient endpoint, and given approximately 95% of total body serotonin is produced in the gut for eg., I would presume we shouldn't be optimizing form nutrient needs defined at a time before the mass destruction of our microbiome. Rather we should create a new datum for the like the needs of our gut's microbiome in a world disconnected from natural ecosystems, overloaded with Endocrine-disrupting chemicals, Per- and polyfluorinated alkyl substances and antibiotics, etc. (looking at Jordan Peterson, I'm not convinced his stake addiction is a permanent condition, but a re-balancing of his microbiome.)
ZOE IS SO PATIENT! I’m following Dr Harcolme, I won’t be following this gal, QUIT CUTTING HER OFF, LET HER TALK….
🙏🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🙏🏼
During the Cave Men days, Fruit Orchards and more importantly Vegetable farms Do Not exists.
So fruits and vegetables are only available by location and are time restricted by seasons.
So the predominant food source would have to be wild animals and fishes, again, by location.
Dear Glynis Barber,
Many Thanks for your 🩷 in respect of my abridged comment. The following is my full and more detailed one:
In Nature Plants of the same kind DO NOT tend to grow in large areas at any one time. But like Everything Else on Planet Earth, there will Always be Exceptions. For example, wild flowers do cover vast tracts of land in Spring.
But natural fruit orchards and vegetable farms are a rare occurrence in nature. Furthermore, they’re location specific and their growth and or fruit production are season specific hence not all ancient humans have access to them.
So, the only stable source of food for our ancient ancestors would be wild animal and or marine animals if they live near large bodies of water.
This explains why Eskimos live on whatever snow and or marine animals that they can kill in the arctic. And the Masai tribes live on cows and drink cow’s blood in the desert.
Has anyone one heard of an ancient vegetarian/vegan ancient tribe that existed during the Stone Age?
Anyway, it is a fact that factory farming animals is, indeed, harming the Environment but then so is mechanised vegetable & grain farming as well.
So rather than one camp trying to accuse the other, let’s all compromise and proceed with organic farms and pasture raised livestock.
In short, “ LET’S LIVE & LET LIVE. “ and
“ TO EACH HIS OWN. “
“ Life Is Short. Live Like Hell. “
- B. Lee
I didn't know Scotland uses dollars...
I eat eggs ..no dairy most of the time …something Feta lol ..fish ..guess I lean pescatarian
The few veggies and fruit that our ancestors might have eaten in occasion are nothing like those of today! Thats very clear ! Todays veggies and most fruits are full of gmo and pesticides and very nutrients lacking and full of sugars. And recently studied show that high dairy is cardiovascular protective!
I eat loads of organ meats they are cheap and nutrient dense
Thank you🎉
I agree with you except that every one of these people believe they have the facts, including Zoe . Zoe’s angle is coloured by nutrients alone ( assuming we know everything about these) she seems to ignore fibre. She also obviously coloured by her experience in her youth. Quoting science is helpful but science is like figures it depends on whose figures. There is a meat and dairy agenda but not sure big broccoli is a threat. I am 69 and not diabetic am not on cholesterol pills or blood pressure tablets, I came close to both but I’m ok now, so what took me towards all those things, even though I cook good food? If you eat too much protein it turns into fat, which helps give you diabetes,where else does it go ? I will leave you in peace now. ( dates give you loads of fibre and sugar, that’s why you can live on them in the desert )
Hi Bev, Zoe actually does speak on Fibre. In fact she has a whole section elsewhere dedicated to it where she shows that fibre is completely unnecessary. She refers to its scientific translation as " many indigestible sugars" She is not a fan. Her book convinced me that fibre is not only unnecesary but harmful
High blood glucose gives you Diabetes. Fat does not cause high blood sugar, too many carbs do.
Fiber destroys your gut!
Meat is the most nutrient dense food.
Apparently so.
🤣
Well beef is anyway. Pork is OK. Chicken is not so good.
@@peterv1436 if you gotta "wild" chicken FROM it's natural habitat: the jungle. ...or if you ate a Carnivore FED Chicken... because chickens ARE CARNIVORES...!!!!! you would "probably" have a different experience...
Terrible this Glynis, interruption all the interview… we want to hear Dr. Zoe.
Meat heals
🤣It keeps the heart and cancer doctors rich!🤑
❤
you need go into weston a price.
Chicken livers are nice. Lambs liver was prescribed to me when I was about 7 years, cooked in butter for 2 minutes each side, three times a week, I quite liked it then.
52 yr old vegetarian since birth here. Doing very well thank you .
Health advice is constantly contradictory. Autophagy explains how vegetarians extract alot of protein from their diet, whilst cleansing themselves.
Glenys, you look a picture of how I would not do anything
dairy only
raw get dr natasha campbell
mcbride can answer all this questions for you
Read both her gaps books and it's really changed things,especially the gut brain health
Ansel Keyes invented five a day
Zoe - 1, Glynnis - 0.
Well done Zoe.
Mostly good stuff but I disagree on dates having no nutritional value. 😊
The meat and dairy industry and big Pharma must love this way of thinking, it keeps them rich! It proves some people with believe and eat anything!
Interesting that you include eating meat and dairy to the big Pharma industry when most of the people switching into keto or carnivore do it exactly to heal from a lot of metabolic deseases they suffer all of their lives . All the best
It proves that you need to listen to what Zoe presents with an open mind and get the fog out of your brain.
Why are all the blue zones super veg based with very little fesh food .surely you cant ignore this fact .
It's not a fact and the blue zones have been debunked. Look into the term, it's be patented - it is owned by The Seventh Day Adventists, who are very pro vegan. Every Blue Zone has a history of eating a lot of animal products, they just decided not to mention it.
The so-called Blue Zones eat TONS of red meat: lamb, goat, beef, and even wild game. Even in Loma Linda the Adventists eat meat by sneaking out of the compound and eating it. Some even sneak it into their homes and cook it in secret. I know many of them and this is very very common but never openly discussed.
People from so called blue zones all eat a wide variety of foods.
Was this released on April 1st? Vegetables not good for you? - All the evidence points the other way. Also comparing vitamin C levels in apples and liver? Apples are not a very good source of vitamin C
Critical comments about Glynis are unfair. She asked good questions. Zoe is not correct and ignores issue of horrific factory farming. She's narrow in her focus. My family are pure vegetarian, many in theor 90s and healthy. Diabetes is an issue for my ethnicity, hence i started eating meat and fish.
Cavemen were running around, lol so of course they didn't gain weight
What if you don't believe in coming from cave men?
It still doesn't change the nutritional truth. What you or I believe doesn't matter. The standard American diet (and every other developed nation) is full of processed food that is long term poison for us.
Fruits and vegetables are full of anti-nutrients. We need animal protein and fat. There are reasons we've been told the wrong information, it isn't a conspiracy, it's capitalism. The companies making the processed food want to stay in business and continue to sell you their products. The pharmaceutical companies want to continue to sell you remedies for the ills caused by the processed food. They work together hand in hand. Processed food and pharmaceuticals are a trillion dollar business. Again, it's not conspiracy it's capitalism.
I hope you take the time to learn. I've spent the past 9-10 years reading and researching. I'm an attorney by profession but this has become my passion.
My health is better than it has ever been. I eat grass-fed, grass-finished beef, eggs from pasture-raised chickens, a small amount of dairy from pasture raised cows. I'll eat wild caught fish. We need animal fat.
I'm almost never hungry between meals, I eat until I'm full. I do have coffee still but with heavy cream. My endurance is great, I look forward to working out and biking.
Don't let the reference to cavemen deter you.
No , the science is not saying this, read some of the top nutritionists and world wide health statistics. Start with Dr. Greger et all , food is not just single nutrients it is more complex . Tell the Berbers dates are not good for them !
Dr Harcolme reviews all the research, this is what she does… . A lot is data is cherry picking to what fits their biases. As well as newer studies. And there are changes happening in the American Heart association and some doctors, but medical systems are slow to change. Often things change generational
I have a new video with Zoë coming out to answer some of this. But, hard as it is to accept, this is what the science says. It's the simple nutritional facts and I know it's different to what we've all been taught. Dr Greger is all about veganism so he's going to have a very different viewpoint.
I think this discussion shows how complex ( thank goodness) the arguments about food now are. There are some simple truths including the fact that people in certain areas have less illness and live longeretc. They tend to eat mostly whole foods and mainly vegetables, grains, fruits, nuts, some small amounts of fish and meat and dairy. The people who are really over doing the animal protein and processed stuff ( on a modern diet) are usually not in great health, with blocked arteries etc.
When you look at a single food for its benefits ie: milk you can praise its calcium and other nutrients. It was assumed the calcium helped our bones, it’s a fact it doesn’t, Holland very dairy based has the worst osteoporosis.
Milk also contains a lot of oestrogen, which is not advised, having had breast cancer I avoid it.
Fruit and veg are mainly water, with fibre and nutrients, that is the point.
Dr Greger doesn’t describe himself as a Vegan. His books and website are based on gathering all the papers written on a food or illness and boiling them down for regular people, the money goes to charity . He is not pushing a point he is trying to stop people dying of diabetes and heart disease. He not the only one, Dean Ornish, T Colin Campbell, Dan Buettner our own Dr Chattergee and many more have spent their lives on these studies.
Nutritionists are ranging from A to Z and back and we have work out our own way, whatever you are doing seems to be working. I was a chef and omnivore but I have moved towards Wholefood plant based after watching people’s health fail and having a fright of my own. It’s working for me. xx
@@beverleygarrett5818 yes and every nutritionist has their own view point and personal preference including Dan Buettner. A lot of them favour plant based diets. However, with Zoë she's not sharing her opinion but the actual nutritional facts about each food. This is what she does and where her considerable expertise is. However, as you say, we should all follow what works for us. As long as we are avoiding highly processed foods and eating whole foods, we are much more likely to remain healthy.
Something seemed odd, so I did some research of my own. Dr Harcombe is/was involved with Meat Promotion Wales, In 2020 World Cancer Research said her quote that there was no evidence for 5 a day and that exercise makes you hungry was ‘Bad Advice’, Dr Harcombe has 18 books on Amazon, basically diet books.
Perhaps Ageless should interview someone on the other side of the argument for balance, perhaps Dr. Alan Desmond would be good?
This is utter BS. The mere fact that we can only find vitamin C in vegetables, since we don't synthetize it, and that a lot of human get calcium from vegetables, you know those humans who don't drink milk, show you we must eat vegetables. Eat meat if you want, but you better eat vegetables too.
Not true. Meat contains Vitamin C - nature is clever, we are always told that Vitamin C helps with Iron absorption. The perfect combo in red meat.
Milk has plenty of C. Where you think babies get their C from? Meat has more C than any human can possibly need.
I was obese with hypertension and pre diabetic, I quite alcohol ,veg and fruit ( all sugars and carbohydrates) I went from 15 stones to 12, I am no longer ill. All of my aches and pains have gone and my BP has gone back to normal, my BM heart rate is as low as 51 BPM. I eat Bacon and eggs in the morning and rib eye. So philippe it’s most definitely not Bull shit my friend.
You only get scurvy if you consume carbohydrates on account of the fact that glucose and ascorbic acid both compete for the same transporters on your cell membranes (GLUT-4). It's why European sailors eating nothing but salt pork and ships biscuits used to get scruvy but Inuit eating nothing but fish and seal meat did not.
Nonsense. Meat does contain some Vitamin C. Also, the more plants you eat, the more need for Vitamin C.
The argument that pre-agricultural peoples were eating vegetables and fruit is a strawman. Of course, they ate what they could find, but there is absolutely zero comparison to our modern idea of veg/fruit consumption. The produce itself was remarkably different, not as palatable and had a very brief window for gathering. They did NOT have a grocery store stocked with produce from multiple continents.
