- Nearly six million individuals live with Alzheimer’s disease in the U.S., and the numbers continue to rise. After 30 years of encountering dead ends while addressing Alzheimer’s disease as a problem of brain plaques, researchers are looking at other contributing factors.
There is a growing body of evidence that indicates a strong correlation between Alzheimer’s disease and a disrupted metabolic state, where the brain can’t get enough energy.
On today’s episode of The Dhru Purohit Podcast, Dhru sits down with Dr. Benjamin Bikman, a renowned metabolic research scientist, and a popular speaker on human metabolism and nutrition. Backed by years of research, Dr. Bikman’s mission is to help the world appreciate the prevalence and relevance of insulin resistance. He is the author of, Why We Get Sick, which offers a thought-provoking yet real solution to insulin resistance and how to reverse pre-diabetes, improve brain function, shed fat, and prevent diabetes. Dr. Bikman has a Doctor of Philosophy in Bioenergetics from East Carolina University, a Master of Science in Exercise Physiology, and a Bachelor of Science in Exercise Science from Brigham Young University.
In this episode, we dive into:
- Why Alzheimer’s disease is increasingly being referred to as insulin resistance of the brain or Type 3 diabetes (7:30)
- How the brain runs on different fuel sources (10:24)
- Why insulin prevents the production of ketones (15:59)
- Early signs of potential cognitive decline (27:02)
- Common foods that drive insulin resistance (37:50)
- The role insulin resistance plays in migraine headaches and epilepsy (52:22)
- Where to get your carbohydrates from (1:02:25)
- Foods that fuel your body and brain (1:05:40)
- How seed oils wreak havoc on our health (1:13:43)
- What you can do today to reduce your risk for Alzheimer’s disease (1:24:19)

My mother suddenly developed dementia last year. She also had several problems that I didn't associate with dementia, like losing her balance, and trouble swallowing. During the holidays she went completely off the rails, and it suddenly occurred to me that her condition became much worse after the sugary holiday meals. She and I both now are on the ketogenic diet. Her improvement has been astonishing. Besides coming back from dementia, she is no longer falling or having trouble swallowing. She stopped hallucinating and is fairly well oriented. She says she's been sleeping better in addition. I thought she was going to have to go to a nursing home. I've even been saying that our whole nation, young and old, is cognitively impaired because of the sugar levels in most diets.
Sugar is not the only culprit. 5G, glysophate are huge factors.
Exactly! Similar experience with my mom, but different organic condition started the dementia
Balance issues? Trouble swallowing? You may really consider looking into trauma / stress / suppressing of emotions or anxiety. Especially "trouble swallowing" happens when you are holding tension in your throat. Sounds a lot like blocked grief or anger.
Thank you for posting. I’m moving to go take care of my mom (who appears to have dementia) and I feel encouraged. I’m going to work to get her healthy.
i know I am kind of off topic but do anyone know of a good site to stream newly released series online ?
I’m a neurologist and I can attest to poor metabolic health in patients with dementia. Rarely, I see healthy individuals encountering DM. Clinical docs- if you’re watching this. Please advise your patients accordingly. No one talks to patients about good basic nutrition. Where are we without good nutrition. I think we need to have Bickman, Berry, Ali, and a few others, need to perform grand rounds in various hospitals and educate us “uneducated” physicians.
Thank you for opening your mind . We've been fed a load of bad info all our lives up to and including many BIG LIES.

Help please design a diet for us aleady on the alziember down hill
@@maureensharpe Diet and anti-inflammatory diet is the best diet. Ketogenic diet is probably the ultimate if you can tolerate it. Make sure you incorporate a lot of Fido nutrients found in berries, cacao powder, turmeric powder, garlic garlic and ginger. Stay away from packaged food. Remember boxed foods do not grow in nature so don’t eat them they have preservatives. Make sure you read the labels of anything you take in. You don’t necessarily need organic foods you just need real Whole Foods, since she needs a low carbohydrate high protein. stay away from alcoholic beverages, soda pop even if they are diet. Coffee actually is helpful in Alzheimer’s disease. When I say coffee I don’t mean the high caloric sugary drinks of Starbucks, but a home brewed coffee of your choice. Can you specific you can use Folgers, anything actually that’s filtered that you make at home. Alzheimer’s try to stay away so from the sugar. You can use the Monk fruit erythritol combination which is not as sweet as sugar but certainly does the job. Dr. Ken Barry talks about the keto diet. I urge you to look at his videos as he dumbs it down to all of us
Bless You Anita for taking a stance "educate physicians" ❣️❣️
I am 63 year old woman. I started ketogenic diet because of severe short term memory loss. After 2 years that problem has disapeared but also I have gone from size 18 dress size to 10. Stopped my antideprsents which I took from the age of 35. Cut down my Lamotrogine medication from 200mg to 50mg a day with the intension of stopping it soon. I am living proof that ketones are needed for a healthy brain. Thankyou Ben for your work and thankyou Dhru for getting info out.
@Martin B yes I took it for seizures. I started having seizures at the age of 40. I have not been diagnosed with bipolar. I am seizure free and about to pluck up the courage to drop the final dose of lamotrogine.
@@heathermylan3741 That's so awesome! I was on lamictal for bipolar and the side effects were hell. I hope you are able to get off of it safely
@@CR-wk2re Thankyou xx
Hi. Just a quick question. How do you prevent ketoacidosis. What is the safe levels of ketone?
@@tariqjackob8505 you do not get ketoscidosis unless you are a type1 diabetic. The insulin from the pancreas prevents toxic ketone levels.
At 43:00
1. Changing to a ketogenic diet to keep your insulin low.
2. Controlling Stress at 40:30
3. Controlling Inflammation at 41:00-43
At 39:50
Too much insulin causes insulin resistance. Keto diet controls insulin resistance, yet they also explained it also provides the ketones the brain needs. At 19:45 ketones essential to the brain. Fasting or ketone diet create more ketones that are immediately utilized in the brain at 20:00.
At 37:20
The current "processed american diet" loaded with carbs and sugars has created insulin resistance. This began when they changed us over to a low fat high carb diet in the 90's.
At 30:45 - 34:00. Insulin resistance is the common thread with fatty liver, infertility and cognitive decline. Address the insulin resistance instead of medicate the symptoms at 34:00.
Indicators of insulin resistance
at 35:00
1. Belly Fat
2. PCOS
3. Fatty Liver Disease
What a great summary! THANK YOU for taking the time to do this! ☺️
Thank you so much
Thank you

Tx! Kept my addled brain from having to work 🤪😂 !
My dad was getting confused, angry, forgetful... Wanted to leave and walk without objective. I started cooking everything in coconut oil. It was refined so it didn't have the smell nor taste of coconut. By the 6th month he was totally fine. At 92 years old, too!
snipergal7 hi. Thank you for posting this. I have never been able to cook in coconut oil because I cant stand eggs and hamburger that tastes like coconut. I bought some that is refined and have been using it since I saw this. It also has a smoke point of 400 degrees. I have all of Bruce Fife's books.
They recommend coconut oil for dog brain function
@@annanicholson5309 all brain function. We aren’t so different.
@@trixatdawn7211 Absolutely! ALL BRAIN FUNCTION!
The thyroid controls brain development, coconut helps thyroid function. Soy and corn but specially soy retards Thyroid function, IN ANY ANIMAL!
For decades I pushed my peoples in Central America to return to coconut use,
"They return from America and think they can tell us what to eat"
The body burns coconut for energy, it does NOT store it, No pot belly(wheat belly). US billboards destroyed Coconut back in the days; and like always the general public fell for the Oki Doke!
Careful with young coconuts if watching sugar intake, but milk and oil good to go.
@@bettyweller1487who is Bruce Fife wwhat us his speciality
OMG! Thank you for helping me understand this! I have been diagnosed with early mild cognitive impairment at 58 years ago. Nobody at the Memory Clinic EVER suggested that I could control my insulin to prevent further decline! Thank you for your information 🙏 !
This discussion is pure gold. This is absolutely central to chronic disease of almost every kind. If people took this information to heart, we wouldn't be going broke paying for health care!
Excellent review. There are a few noncommunicable diseases plaguing modern society that can't be be prevented, cured or at least greatly ameliorated through a combination of intermittent fasting and ketogenic diets. Unfortunately food processing and diabetes management are some of the most profitable sectors of the economy. It took me more than 20 years of cardiology practice before I fully recognized diabetes to be a completely preventable and often curable condition rather than the chronic, progressive disease it had been marketed to me as from medical school through my first 15 years of practice. The most satisfying part of my job used to be unblocking coronary arteries. Now it is taking people off of their diabetic and antihypertensive medications using the only medicine that actually cures...Real Food!
So disease is caused not caught.
I pray that type1 diabetes is soon solved.
Greatly appreciate your approach to m3dicine Doctor 🌟
Thank you doctor. 50 years ago, before most all of the food they try to serve up to us now, for profit, there was not much of those " diseases " killing us. Not like now. Listening to the government telling us what to eat, is killing us. Stop it. Eat like a caveman. Because that IS what we are inside.
I’m not in the medical industry but learned this to be true through my deep dive of healing my body of health issues brought on by ptsd. I was diagnosed with this but it was never communicated. I was sent to cardiologists, neurologist and more, I was just given more meds which in turn caused more issues. Once I weaned off all these meds on my own and went back to eating clean and following a low carb diet my health issues were resolved. I’ve never ad diabetes but brought studying food and high learned it’s a metabolic disease which means its a preventable and curable by the food that is eaten. If you don’t eat sugar, avoid processed foods and certain carbohydrates diabetes goes away.
They want us to stay sick because of greed and profit. Research how and why pharmaceutical companies went from selling vitamins and minerals t prevent an cure diseases to selling drugs that only treat and guarantee return customers for life. Then look at the family that started this as well as who funds the private owned company that educates the students pursuing medical degrees in universities. The pharmaceutical companies lobbied for this to happen.
This is why most doctors with all their knowledge don’t understand that food can heal you just as well as a pill for instance instead of blood thinners eat these foods…. Diabetics prevention and reversal avoid these foods etc.
Our lack of knowledge is killing us.
I have been doing carnivore now for about 40 days, lost about 15 lbs, but the thing I noticed is that my mental capacity is so sharp, and my energy is off the charts. I am doing 18:6. This is perfect for me.
I started keto diet and intermittent fasting to control blood sugar. To my surprise, my mental clarity increased quite a bit. It was a nice bonus.
Same for me. I'm a teacher and it's really nice to stay fresh after a full day of teaching :)

I did keto and lost weight quite slowly for 6 months and then just stopped (23 carbs) and could not get below 190 blood sugar. I felt tired.
I’ve had these extreme blood glucose drops throughout childhood. I also had a very unhealthy, sugar heavy diet throughout childhood. Over the last 8 months I’ve switched to a keto diet to try to get healthy in my early 60’s, hoping to reduce my risk of dementia as it is in my genes. Thank You Dr. Ben B. for your videos that bring research-based information to the world!
It's ridiculous that this channel doesn't have more subscribers. Insanely informative! Thank you, Dhru!
What about palm oil? I know the fruit is naturally oily. I believe palm fruit can be cold pressed to extract it's oil. Please share your thoughts. Thanks.
Lots of bandwidth for over an hour of video. I would be more inclined to listen through podcast, especially for talking content.
@hhumh … all that insulin has reduced our ability to focus for more than 15 minutes
He has 251 thousand subscribers. 😊
@@janethoward23I thought palm oil was a no no, I cannot remember what I watched but palm oil is destroying habitat for animals, and in the UK we have things like peanut butter, it’s states on the Jar no Palm oil, it’s made a big thing of here, and I always make sure I don’t buy anything with palm oil. I just stick to olive oil on salads and cook with avocado oil to cook with as it has a high smoke , where as olive oil although extremely good for you, if heated has a low smoke and will burn and become carcinogenic.
I so appreciate Ben Bikman and his immense knowledge and dedication to helping people. I think that I most admire his kindness and respect for people, even if they don't agree with him. A fine person.
"If you are part of the problem, then you are part of the solution." Love it!
I developed insulin resistance after 1 year of high stress at a prior job. I would get horrible breathing episodes where I felt like I wasn't getting enough oxygen. Ended up in the hospital. Blood work showed high glucose and infection. To fix it, I went on an anti-inflammatory diet and eliminated stress which meant quitting the stressful job. After 2-3 months, I was better.
This is the best talk on insulin resistance for the average person to easily understand what it is, how it affects the whole body at any age. And what to do about it 😅❤🎉 thank you. My teenage kids and the young adult just tested with high fasting insulin between 12 and 16 ang HOMA-IR between 2.5 and 2.8. They already suffer from some of the symptoms like migraines, sleepy after a meal, chronic lack of good sleep, etc. I should say that it took a year for their doctors to finally approve the insulin test. Doctors kept saying they didn't need it because they weren't diabetic 🤯😡

Hi tulips, with this new knowledge, what changes did the boys adopt in their dietary habits?
I lived With nearly daily migraines! Often triggered by great stress mostly in my marriage, and then working on positions of a lot of stress. All you said about stress and relating it to insulin resistance and migraines now makes sense! Wish we knew this soooo many years ago.
After watching lovely Ben talk about all theses chronic diseases I cut my husband's sugar and high carb diet, he is reaper the benefits. Thank you so much.
I'm so thankful im taking steps to prevent my dementia. I've quit smoking 8 years ago. I don't drink, I fast often, lost 40 lbs, eat a higher healthy fat diet, getting a handle on my blood sugar and ketos levels. I've been on metformin for pcos for 20 years. I am all in with a kick in my pants a year ago
Well worth the time. This is one of the best videos on the subject I have seen and believe me I have watched lots of them. There are some ramblings and slow points but most of what is in this video is highly educational and presented in a plain and simple manner. Excellent work.
Dr Ben Bikman and Dr Paul Mason are the mic drop kings. Bammmm. Thanks for the great content.
Insulin resistance seems like such an important medical aspect since it leads to so many diseases
This was very educational and inspiring. Thank you guys for taking the time and energy to put this together.
I had read a study that people with blood sugar levels under 100 live longer. Since that time I have been monitoring my blood sugar. It's a cool tool to use for longevity, health, and overall awareness.
I’m glad I found you! Your delivery of the topic is very clear and I like the fact that you are letting your guest speak more of the time and you never interrupt them. Without you making any interruptions makes the whole learning so interesting and complete. I leant a lot and I will look forward for more of your other important guests sharing helpful subjects! Thank you indeed! And your voice adds to lovely sharing.
What a fantastic interviewer with with an equally efficient doctor. The interviewer is asking leading questions that are directing the doctor proficiently.
Severe migraine headaches 1-3 days a week for over 40 years, many doctor visits and prescription meds to try to help, MRI, nothing stopped them until he reduced his carbohydrates after I did to heal diabetes naturally without meds. All the Diabetes meds still didn't give my Dad back his full mobility and freedom and mind. So I tried the food route and that worked for dozens of health problems I had overwhelming me in 2019 and the decades before as well.
That’s what happened to me when I take a sugary food. My sugar goes lower than it was before so I don’t eat sugary products or breads during the day.
I always went into coma effect after eating a sandwich when I worked outside the house.
I never eat bread now. My sugar is low as well as my pressure.
Fantastic! I've never seen a video that breaks diet and nutrition information down in such an informative and usable manner. I can actually apply this to my life and I know why I'm doing it. Thank you!
One question that has to be asked is , since Insulin Resistance is the cause of metabolic diseases, the way to reduce or prevent these metabolic diseases must be reduce or prevent Insulin Resistance. How does one systematically reduce Insulin resistance? CHANGE your diet, go low carbohydrates more Protein and Oily food because Dr Bikman says the best protein comes with a little fat. We need to go Keto, and reduce Insulin another way which is soak up all the Glucose through exercise, because muscle cells apparently do not require as much Insulin to take up excess Glucose.😮
Dhru i watch your videos and have applied many techniques in our hospitals we have. They are leading to tremendous changes in the quality of health in many people. Keep this going medical science needs a new approach to heal people, just like Ayurveda which treats the cause and not the symtom. God bless

Hi. What is Ayurveda and how do you use it.
Google it
Yes, long, but worth it...it is important for us to get this information!
One of the most amazing videos I've watched during my medical studies. Thank you so much 😊
Dhru, good job! This is an astounding interview. Dr. Bikman, your dedication and knowledge about insulin are inspiring. A hearty thumbs up to you.
I was diagnosed a type 1 diabetic in 1970. My insulin resistance has dropped only with a very low-carbohydrate diet. Type 1 diabetics are encouraged by their endocrinologists to eat at least 100 grams of carbohydrates a day, and a slow but unrelenting weight gain and a constant rise in insulin resistance was what I had - and I suspect it’s becoming usual for a type 1.
High carb is causing a lot of health issue due to the body unable to support such diets. Going low carbs will improve your health span more so than high carb diet. Our food intakes matters for our health and well-being.
Type 1 diabetes is a autoimmune disease that is reversible by, getting your vitamin D3 level to 125-150 ng/mL (confirmed by 25-hyroxyvitaminD3 blood test) assuming your magnesium level is at 6mg/dL as confirmed by the RBC Mg blood test. High D3 levels causes greater gene expression requiring more magnesium, zinc , vitamin C.
Dumbass doctors are recommending 100 grams of carbs per day? No one should be eating that much carb. No wonder the Amer. Diabetes As. first got going due to the grain companies funding. Its all great for big Pharma and the medical racket.
Dr. Richard K. Bernstein a type 1 diabetic will tell you to only eat 30g of low carbs per day.
I am 80 in two months ,as a young woman I ate a high sugar diet.it’s only been the last three years that I have been listening to people like you two Dc, . Is it too late for me to stop myself from getting Brain Diabetes’s thank you ,, I have been low carbs for two years. Thank you.
it's not too late, Jill.
My brain issues started in my 40’s and escalated in my 50’s. The damage is seen on an MRI.
Looking back on my life as I grew up, there is nothing more absurd to me than how I missed so simple a cure; "you are what you eat." Are you ready for the next one? An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Whole foods, early intervention with your children and discipline can save your entire family. What if everyone did the same?
Good points. However _"you are what you eat"_ can be misleading. Eat fat?
@@KenJackson_US good fats are not bad...so, yes, eat fat... especially the fat that comes along with the protein 😊
@@poobearsbeautifulgoddess2416: _"so, yes, eat fat"_
I've joined the keto revolution too, so I totally agree with you. But I was questioning the wisdom of the adage _"you are what you eat"._ Eating fat _does not_ make you fat.
That’s what I am going do, I wonder how to maintain keto while being pregnant 🤨
@@Hairbytyra.s This should be easy. Follow the general keto diet recommendations and you will be doing great. Healthy proteins, healthy fats, non-starchy vegetables, some dairy, nuts, a bit of low carb fruits such as berries. You will be good to go. No sugar, processed crap, seed oils, grains.
I’m sitting down to take notes!!!
I don't eat grains, I don't eat anything out of a box with a bar code on it... I only eat whole foods... cruciferous veg, leafy greens, real whole vegetables, fish, eggs, only whole meats (rarely red meats no processed meats), I don't drink anything but water, occasionally some chicken... Been this way since 2017.... Never felt better in my life... lost over 100 pounds... I can fast for days easily without getting hungry much... There was a time when I would become restless and uncomfortable by missing one meal... I've always been told that the discomfort and hunger during a fast is because of a sugar addiction... I don't even eat fruits, because of the fructose... It's so much easier to concentrate when you sleep well and don't eat sugar... There's nothing like fasting and meditation to clear your mind, and sharpen your awareness... People who sell products with high fructose corn syrup should be incarcerated. I would sooner smoke crack, consume high fructose corn syrup!!! That's my health story, and I'm sticking to it!!!
He explains so good. I been doing ketogenic off and on 4 or 5 years. I got in the ketone business 6 years ago and went to a seminar that had scientist. Holistic, Dr, nutritionist all on what ketones do. Was the most informative seminar I ever went to. I love this video. Thanks for info and helping.j
I’d like to express endless appreciation to both these doctors for this incredibly informative content. Dr. Bikman, you are absolutely THE most eloquent speaker I’ve ever had the pleasure of listening to! Dr. Purohit, you are such an exceptional interviewer! Thank it both of you. 👏👏👏☺️
Dr Dale Bredesen and Dr Daniel Amen
I recently got a CGM and it's been blowing my mind. I think the craziest thing is seeing the dawn phenomenon directly. For example, I can wake up and immediately check my level and it will be around 100 or so. 10-15 minutes later, it will be 140-160. That is just wild and really unexpected. It takes many hours for my body to recover from that, and I haven't even taken in any glucose yet!
Always enriched and empowered from the teachings by Ben Bikman
This was an outstanding video. It was clear, concise and easy to understand. Huge amount of complicated information easily understood. This makes complete sense.
I soooo much appreciate you and all the brilliant people you continue to introduce me to. Thank You So Much. You've made a huge difference in my life. In ohhh sooooo many ways
Fantastic video. Extremely informative and easy to understand as always explained by Dr. Bikman. Thank you for producing it and moderate it so well.
I don’t understand why you won’t say what you need to say in a concise manner. Videos that are an hour and a half or more simply won’t be watched by many people. The intelligent mind simplifies. As a retired physician, I already know a lot about what you’re talking about and that it can be simplified. I’m saying this to encourage reaching more people.
Alzheimers has sticken my family in the past. It is one of only two diseases that terrifies me. Glioblastoma is the other. I am grateful i now know about true healthy eating. Extreme low carb, healthy fat, moderate protein. Nothing processed. I....FEEL....GOOD!
Excellent interview! Very informative on insulin and how to go about dealing with it for health. Control high carbs and fast!!!
I had horrible brain fog and forgetfulness at 55 .now 56 I complained constantly to my pcp they blamed my hypothyroidism which I was on 50mcg Levothyroxine. My gynecologist sent me to an Endocrinologist they ran many test including a metabolic breath , I had a gap and they put me on Metformin. I feel much better brain fog lifted!!! , losing weight finally!! I now eat only grass fed pasture raised beef, butter ,venison, elk, eggs. Organic greens ,no potatoes of any kind, if I have bread its only sourdough bread . I fast 16 hrs from 1:30pm to 8:00a.m.
Follow up comment. My mother (86) developed vascular dementia and now lives in a memory care assisted living home.
I absolutely hate (and have made it known to management) what the residents diet (plus snacks & treats🙄) is, but at this point, if you abruptly changed their diet, I’m afraid it would confuse and upset them all. I can’t help but think they’re slowly killing them with high starch, sugar, breads, etc.
If I had known years ago what I know now thanks to Dr Ben & Dhru & Dr Jamnadas & others… maybe I could’ve prevented my mom from developing dementia.
Anyone who is still able to make changes for your aging loved ones or yourself, take charge! Get in front of it. It’s worth it!
I absolutely LOVE the comment Dr Ben made towards the end about naturally wanting to “do something about” what he’s learned in his studies and lab.
I applaud him!!
He’s humble AND brilliant and we all know those two character traits don’t usually cohab!
Yes I love that, that if we are part of the problem then we’re part of the solution! Such a life changing video for my health! Thank you both!❤God bless you both and what you’re doing to share truth with us!
I’m book marking this to take notes 👍🏻
If you really want to get this message out, get to the point. Almost 2 hours is too long especially when there is so much non info.
I appreciate the info, I think it is helpful. I don't typically have 2 hours to dedicate to a video when actual info could be covered in half the time
That’s how they make their money from you tube. The longer you watch equals $
I get your sentiment. I shy away from content because of that. However if its Dr Bikman then it's a no contest! I'm watching. Might do it over 2 or 3 viewings. All the best.
Very beneficial health info. He covers a lot of info and I really appreciate his time.
I agree. If I don't know someone, I try to limit my videos to 10-20 minutes.

Italy now imports wheat from the USA, then shipps the pasta products back to us with Made in Italy on the labels.
Wow, what an amazing interview! Love Dr Bikman!
Not any more, I’m doing OMAD! Whole Foods and no sugar.
What a great video thank you, this is something I been studying for a well on how to stay healthy by good diet and I have been passing this information on to other friends and people that are noticing a difference. But I got a shock earlier when the District Hospital Board was doing Covid vaccinations they were advertising they were handing out lollies to children that got vaccinated and a Sausage Sizzle for the Adults who got vaccinated , even Hospitals don't know what a good healthy diet is. Also Hospitals for years and they still are telling Diabetic to have a high carb low fat diet. It is ridiculous advice as I have a friend who had been taking that advice for decades and it wasn't working, he was Type 1 Diabetic on 4-5 insulin injection a day I got him on a Keto diet 4 years ago and he was down to 1 insulin injection a day in about a week and still is on a Keto diet and would never charge. Diabetic Clinics are giving ridiculous and dangerous advice to Diabetic people my friend his never felt better even his own doctor is happy. There is even doctors that have been diagnosed with diabetes that now realize they were giving the wrong advice.
This is a great interview, lots of essential information thank you Dr Birman and Dhru Purohit 👋🙏👍🥰
I've struggled with low blood sugar events my whole life. Most of my life I didn't know what to do to prevent it.
Man I need a tablespoon of ketones, to try to keep up with all this. I have improved since I was 70 and now at 76 my mind is working much better than 6 years ago. I’ve been low carb for those years and when everything is in order I probably eat twice a day. I do like to skip food for a day and really fast when I feel like it I’m starting a long fast and I know my brain likes it. 🎉
Dr. Reams explains that alkalinity stimulates insulin function and acidity does not. Thus acid meals produce high sugar and diabetic symptoms and alkaline means low blood sugar.
Thank you for sharing this knowledge. Dr. Bikman explains the science so well in language we can all understand. He is amazing and providing a gift to all who are trying to live healthy.
Health is the only subject where I feel like the more I learn and research the more confused I get. So many counter points and people convinced of the complete opposite view with studys and whatnot to support them. That soy is grown to feed cows by the way not just to make oil
80 per cent of soy grown globally is used to feed factory farmed animals. 70 billion land animals per year.
I'd love to see Dr. Bickman debate Dr.Saladino!! Love them both though
S.O.S
Seed Oil Sugar....killer combo
HOW INTERESSTING THANKYOU I LEARND A LOT TODAY
I think every American shld be getting "scripts", for insulin monitors...and be "PAID" to use them...as they are also tied to "long-term" medical/Ph.D. studies.
Now this...is a good idea.
The technology doesn’t yet exist to monitor insulin. Someday soon hopefully. CGMs monitor glucose levels. That combined w a fasting insulin from a lab sample is the best option currently available.
It a very good thing that you are trying to get this information out to the public. I wish Drs could realize the truth.
GRACIAS DR. BIKMAN POR ESTA 'EYE OPENING' REVISION. IGUAL QUE YO, VARIOS MIEMBROS DE MI FAMILIA Y AMISTADES, CON SERIOS PROBLEMAS DE SALUD, SE VAN A VENEFICIAR DE ESTE IMPORTANTE TRABAJO.
DIOS LO SIGA ILUMINANDO PARA BENEFICIO SUYO Y DE TODA LA HUMANIDAD HUMANIDAD
ESO es la Verdad! 🥳
Thank you for such an amazingly informative and life saving video
One source of inflammation not often mentioned is the MTHFR genes. This was a huge source of inflammation for me and not impacted by a low carb diet. It was discovered by my functional medicine dr. I do have some insulin resistance and feel this inflammation was a huge factor as I have avoided sugar and carbs for years.
That’s very true about that mutation. I have it too. I do think you can outsmart your genes though with diet and lifestyle which is somewhat a relief. Epigenetics.
@@crh251 yes. Diet directly affects the health of the mitochondria, the producer of the cells energy source ATP that allows the cell to function as designed. Low ATP production leads to all diseases and gene expression
I have the same mutation.. can you share how you got better?
That looks like a non vowel acronym for MTHRFCKR.
Can I ask if you've considered any of this for adhd in children? After listening to many videos like this my mind wanders about that epidemic. Adhd is at an all time high at this point.
Excellent idea! I wonder if anyone is studying this.
Yes. ADHD and even depression is greatly influenced by diet. There is another MD, Robert Lustig, has spoken about these two items.
Drew: I am coming to the conclusion not only is Alzheimers related to cancer but in a very dynamic different mechanism than thought by the AMA. We have been going about this incorrectly. In fact with cancer, especially those very pernicious cancers not treatable by our modern radiation, and chemotherapy, (which is actually the very worst way to combat say, cancers of the brain, glioblastoma, lung cancer small cell, and gall bladder cancers. Our prognosis after 5 years is less than 5%. With metabolic treatment this will turn out to be greater than 80% to 90% alive patients at the 5 year level. A huge drastic improvement way way higher than our demented present president desires. In fact turning heart disease into the primary mode of death for the average American. Just by fasting and producing a keytonic metabolism starving cancer cells of it's energy pathway as being unable to move to the ketosis pathway because of it's mutations. So insulin is the enemy of ketosis and can only be reduced by fasting producing insulin enhancement by our bodies. Thus ketones are the method our brain uses to produce it's energy instead of glucose. Ketosis is our friend for better mental activity. In fact after 25 days of fasting we can inject insulin into our bodies killing many cancer cells outright. If given when not in ketosis might actually kill the patient.
I haven't heard that insulin kills cancer cells but after nearly 4 weeks of fasting most of the cancerous cells would be be dead and digested by autophagy or autolysis already.
This has such valuable information. I have been careful about my diet, and had no idea the gluten free wraps were spiking my blood sugar.
You’re not alone. If it is a starchy Carb there is a very high chance to certainty of it affecting your blood glucose and insulin responses.
Fibre isn’t the miracle it is made out to be unless the fibre is so fibrous that all you can do is chew it and spit it out because it’s impossible to swallow without choking.
I read the label. Most wrap have seed fats and whatever flour they contain. It may say healthy wrap but read the ingredient to indicate otherwise.
What's the carb count of these???
4:10 Ouch. It's not appropriate to compare p-values in this way, if I know anything at all about statistics. How well one distinguishes from the null hypothesis for a true hypothesis is determined by the power of the study, as well as the magnitude of the effect. Unless both studies had the same statistical power, this assertion lies in no man's land.
Once again I thank you from the bottom of my heart, thanks to you I can finally Sleep Every night. I saw your program on tinnitus, in which you go straight to the point about main cause is insulin resistance I follow your advise and from a super loud noise like someone screaming in your ear from the top of their lungs, dropped to almost none perceivable, just ilike a whisper. I have peace now, I can think clearly,
I must tell you that on Saturday I was thirsty, but had no chance to get my water, so I grabbed a drink supposedly good for immune system I red it saud no sugar, no carbs, bought it and had 2 drinks The scream in my ear started fast and louder and louder. again really loudly i felt like my head was going to implode. I grabbed the can and read everything and ther I found that had stevia. I threw it out right away. I drank lots of water then ate some butter and drank some decaf with extra cream and added butter too. Later noice quiet down again.thank God & Thank you
Absolutely amazing video.
Could you pls. let me know what Ketogenic diet is about?
Would like to know how Bikman thinks that cattle ranching is destructive to the planet. Almost all cattle are raised on marginal land that is not being used for anything else. Cattle are ruminants that have the amazing ability to take cellulose and roughage that hardly anything else can eat (they have 4 stomachs) and turn this junk into condensed highly nutritious packages of protein. Grains on the other hand require huge amounts of petroleum product input for for the huge machines including fuel to to plow, sow, fertilize, apply herbicide, pesticide and then desiccate (ripen with glyphosate) harvest, transport and store this bulky low quality product.
1:19:00 Why has canola oil not yet been mentioned?
_The polyunsaturated fats in canola oil include 21% linoleic acid - more commonly known as omega-6 fatty acid - and 11% alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), a type of omega-3 fatty acid derived from plant sources._
That's a 2:1 ratio achieved by a seed oil.
Canola is controversial. If cold pressed and u don't heat it, some say it's healthy. Others argue it oxidizes quickly and that is very bad for you, so even if it isn't refined, it causes inflammation. I avoid canola.
Canola was created for machinery, then they found it did not kill people (quickly)
Amazing info as usual! Just added Omega test to my wish list so I don't forget.
Wow...first time I've seen Dr Ben. Great interaction, he's so knowledgable...
Thanks for the info. I am diabetic.
serve a meal tray to an Alzheimer person, and they will eat the desert first, and most of time don't want anything else.
Like a true junkie.
My mom had dementia. She couldn’t stop eating bread.
There are nutritional drink mixes that taste good. That way they get supplements.
46:50 Amazing explanation - it happens to more people without them knowing it.
Why do I so love listening to this scientist in his lab closet?
I should explain Lamotrogine is a drug to treat epilepsy.
Thank you doctor,i.pray fotr the health of all nations for we are to help and raise one another.
I have nysagmus in one eye (shaking of the eyeball) and I'm sure it's related to my high blood glucose levels. Started carnivore 4 days ago and I'm sure that will cure it. Plants of any kind are deadly. One brussel sprout has 136 carcinogens, for example. I was strict keto for 2.5 years (10 to 14 carbs per day) but it wasn't enough--I still had T2 diabetes, so carnivore will reverse it. I'm still worried but hopeful!
I have nyastagmus too. It’s from both bp vertigo and central vertigo. Central vertigo is from a lesion on the brain… most likely for the same reason I have many lesions- diabetes. I wish people talked more about that.
@@joemurphy710 Me too, Joe! I can't find any information on it.
So what are we supposed to eat?
Papers and cardboards! Hahaha! Seriously, I took out a lot stuff from my fridge and I end up with one cartoon of eggs , one litre of milk , and vegetables. Lots of lemons though in my fridge . 😂😂😂 I have never seen my fridge that clean.
If my liver is fatty, and I have belly fat can’t lose weight my insulin level is high.. first indicator is belly fat .inflammation and not sleeping well also causes insulin resistance. I’m not sleeping but 3 to 4 hrs a night. Inflammation in legs.
That’s one issue I don’t hear about… I am down to 800 calories- very low carb and can barely drop a pound. It messes with your ability to lose weight.
Thank you for this information and the way it was presented.
Gold.
The woman at the memory center should have been giving out pats of grass-fed butter....
Very Grateful for
Valuable info !!
Dhru Purohit is there any hope for type1 diabetics? I'm NOT a fan of medication and, soooo many doctors TRY to push it. Type 1 diabetics WANT & NEED a greater solution for LONGEVITY of LIFE. PLEASE Please Pleeeease💞 do review videos in regards to type 1 diabetic healthy living, for LIFE longevity? Thank you in advance😊.
Awesome conversation, gentlemen, thank you
Amazing...thank you so much.
why doesn’t every one lower their carbs?
Taste sooooo good
Dissonance
It's not educated otherwise people would make wise choice. Big company would loss trillions of dollars in profits.
They have pretty shiny sparkly packaging.
