Carbs he likes to utilize: 1. Honey 2. Liquid carbs (e.g. waxy maize) 3. Tropical fruits (higher sugar, but more enzymes - pineapple) 4. Tapioca starch 5. Watermelon (carb to water ratio is fairly low) 6. Whole grain 7. Maple syrup (low calorie and higher antioxidant than honey) What he tries to avoid: 1. Red Potato 2. Carb loading/timing (only matters if you're fully depleted)
You've helped my achondroplasia self in more ways than you could ever imagine! Considering people diagnosed with dwarfism have over a 50% chance of dealing with obesity, your videos are crucial!
Yeah except he's behaved like a pretentious zealot and arrogant narcissist.....doesn't know what he's talking about....clearly on steroids....nothing but lies
Maple syrup is the only additive sugar I use, I put it mainly in kefir. Honey makes my blood sugar skyrocket and makes me feel like shit but maple syrup doesn't have that effect. Living in Quebec surely helps, we have 70% of the worldwide production of maple syrup and can find it for cheap all year round.
Plus you have access to the REAL stuff, most of us in other places (like the US) get duped by them using high fructose instead of the real stuff. Such a shame. You gotta make sure you are DILLIENTLY looking at labels these days and even thats not enough.
@@bbaker6212 Doesn't taste as good though imo. Love it in my organic garden though so that says something. The beneficial bacterias just feast on that stuff.
I've watched you for years and I've developed one rule that keeps me healthy. Never eat corn, wheat, potatoes, or anything made with them. Also never eat meat that consumed those items. In my 50s, I lost 151.2 pounds in 365 days. I feel better now than when I was a high functioning athlete at 20. Keto is a healing diet and the side effects are incredible. I've been disabled for nearly 20 years and without a doubt it has improved my daily life. The brain fog is 4 more paragraphs... in short we are being dumbed down and physically harmed by chemicals so greedy people who made such things can sell you pills to feel better. Don't let it be done to you. Peace.
I always disagreed with your previous stand on honey. I am so glad you changed your perspective, Thomas. I respect in you the ability to always evolve and your open mind.
Quick note about honey. You need raw unpasteurized honey without various additives like sugar some manufacturers add to it. Budget honey is often just honey flavored sugar syrup.
Yep! Same goes for maple syrup! Chances are if you are buying a bottle of MP for $2 it's probably not real MP lmao. That's a shame but that's the way the cookie crumbles.
I love cherry juice for gout AND any inflammation! Just gotta make sure it's real TART cherry juice with no bullshit in it cuz you know these companies love to hide crap in there lmao. I personally love Cheribundi. They use TART cherries and ONLY if you want something like Apple Juice is THAT specifically available. But, if not, then you can choose whatever you want. I am partial to the one with Stevia in it but again, you don't HAVE to have that one. There is a Pure one with nothing but cherries. Another good one is Lakewood Organic 100% Juice, Tart Cherry. EWG states that it has SUGAR in it but that's just from the cherries!
I eat a chicken breast once a month and other than that I just fast with organic free-range ionized air. The ionization neutralizes the free radical C3's down to the microbiome level. I'm shredded.
6:05 Bromelein in pineapple. I remember reading about this 30 years ago in Franco Colombo's Nutrition for Bodybuilders book from 1985. Some of the science doesn't really change. We just discover or rediscover things. 😉
### Key Insights from “The Carbohydrates I’ll Never Eat Again (and 7 I Wish I Started Eating Sooner)” In the RUclips video titled **“The Carbohydrates I’ll Never Eat Again (and 7 I Wish I Started Eating Sooner)”**, the speaker shares a transformative view on various carbohydrates based on recent literature and personal experience. Here's a summary of the key points discussed: #### **Carbohydrates to Consider Including:** 1. **Honey:** - Initially dismissed as mere concentrated sugar, honey is now seen as beneficial due to its unique sugar composition. Studies suggest honey can lower insulin and glucose levels, making it a metabolically favorable carbohydrate. Honey also contains trehalose, which helps modulate glucose levels and reduce HbA1c over time. Additionally, honey may increase adiponectin, aiding liver glycogen absorption. 2. **Liquid Carbohydrates (Waxy Maize):** - Previously avoided, liquid carbohydrates such as waxy maize are now viewed as valuable, especially post-workout. They provide a low glycemic, fast-absorbing source of energy that replenishes glycogen and reduces cortisol without staying long in the gastrointestinal tract. These are more about utility than taste, serving specific needs for quick carbohydrate intake. 3. **Tropical Fruits (e.g., Pineapple):** - Once seen as high-sugar culprits, tropical fruits are now appreciated for their metabolic benefits. For instance, pineapple contains bromelain, which offers various health benefits despite its sugar content. Moderation is key, allowing for small servings that provide polyphenols and other nutrients. 4. **Tapioca Starch:** - Initially considered undesirable due to its association with cassava, tapioca starch is now recognized as a beneficial resistant starch. It lowers insulin and glucose levels and supports gut health. Continuous glucose monitoring can show its positive impact on blood sugar levels. 5. **Watermelon:** - Previously dismissed as “sugar water,” watermelon is now valued for its low carbohydrate density and good mineral ratio. Its high water content makes it a suitable option for hydration and replenishment, particularly post-workout. 6. **Whole Grains:** - Whole grains were once thought to be problematic, but there’s a distinction between processed whole grain products and true whole grains. Whole grains in their natural form, like brown rice, provide better metabolic benefits and are high in fiber compared to their refined counterparts. 7. **Maple Syrup:** - Initially avoided as just another sugary syrup, maple syrup is recognized for its lower glycemic index and high antioxidant content compared to honey. It also provides essential minerals like zinc and magnesium, making it a healthier alternative to refined sugars. #### **Carbohydrates to Limit or Avoid:** 1. **Red Potatoes:** - While previously used as a post-workout carbohydrate source, red potatoes are now limited due to their high oxalate content. Consuming them daily may contribute to unnecessary oxalate buildup. 2. **Carb Timing:** - The timing of carbohydrate consumption has been re-evaluated. Recent studies show that the timing of carbohydrate intake doesn’t significantly impact performance or glycogen levels unless in a state of severe depletion. Consuming enough carbohydrates overall is more crucial than precisely timing them. ### Conclusion The video highlights a nuanced understanding of carbohydrates, emphasizing the importance of context and recent scientific findings in dietary choices. It encourages a shift away from rigid carbohydrate rules towards a more flexible and informed approach. This perspective underscores the potential benefits of certain carbohydrates previously considered harmful and questions the necessity of others once deemed essential. Overall, it advocates for a balanced and personalized carbohydrate intake tailored to individual health needs and goals.
Love the way you keep us updated and that you keep analyzing the research. Can you please post a link to the Feb. 2024 research you mentioned on carb timing? Would like to read more on this topic. Thanks!
My usual lunch, after I work all morning on my feet, is 150g of hulled millet, bolied with a good pinch of salt. Than when cooled down I add 10g of mct oil and 30g of maple syrup. Simply delicious 😋 I also separately have 1 ounce of liver or kidneys with 30g of olive oil. Feel great and all that fat will lower the gi index of the meal anyways. Enjoy, you'll thank me later 😊
Honey (imho) is the single best (and the only one that I consume) carbohydrate. Not only does it do the things you’ve mentioned, but it contains boron which will increase free testosterone.
@@Dlindo8892 Going to assume that's bad. I know babies aren't supposed to have raw honey for similar reasons. Fact is honey has actually been DIGESTED by the bees already.
I’m glad you said watermelon cause I began consuming it after I read multiple publications stating all the benefits of watermelon especially for diabetics. I will now stop avoiding pineapple and have some now and then. Thanks for all your information on everything.
I gave up natures carbs (like purple sweet potatoes, some fruit, honey), I found I was gaining weight. I started eating natures carbs again along with a whole food diet, and found my weight is dropping off! Just do what feels right, as long as it’s not processed!
Give red rice (or know as blackberry rice)?a try. 100gram / 9 grams protein. I didn't know until our son who is in a professional soccer school told me that the coaches feed that to the athletes. But we live in Asia, not sure if available worldwide. Taste is great too.
After watching a couple of your videos, I started using honey along with allulose in my tea/coffee. Not to the point I taste, though, but still withquite a itterness of the coffee.
❤ Hi, I'm not worried about calories or weight gain, just want to he healthy. so would you say maple syrup is the healthiest sweetener (let's say for baking).. better than honey or Stevia?
Has anyone read the research on parboiled rice, potatoes etc which don’t spike glucose? Also if we’re having carbs and walking 10 minutes after intake the spike is reduced as body uses blood sugar immediately.
But isn't tapioca starch a refined starch and doesn't have much of resistance starch? And when even if it has any in its raw form, when you bake it it's cooked so any amount is turned into simple carb
@@goaway1857 No thanks. I'll stick with first principles and things that have worked consistently for hundreds of years. You and Thomas can be all over the place and change weekly if it makes you happy. Most likely, Thomas' use of TRT and maybe other PEDs make his diet less important than it is for the rest of us. That's probably why he can burn off those sugary, high-glycemic carbs.
The concerns about sugars in fruit reminds me of the Nate Bargatze bit about that. He says that he’s been trying to eat more fruit, and people warn him that there’s a lot of sugar in fruit. His response? “Oh yeah, well show me your fat fruit friends, then.” 😂 Thanks for the info.
@@Retro-Iron11 Eh come on. I know fat people that eat fruit but they all eat other crap as well. Like the type of people that eat a pizza and then have an apple and call themselves healthy. Now the type of people who eat healthy and also eat fruit... Yeah they aren't obese.
I do eat a small amount of honey but it's high in fructose and that isn't great... it requires the liver to clear. I prefer it to sugar but it's still a rare treat for me.
In studies done on fat adapted marathoners and carb loaded marathoners it was found by muscle biopsy that the fat adapted had the same glycogen levels as the carb loaders at the races end. Also in tests for power output etc the fat adapted athletes fared much better. So you don’t need carbs for training. Whole grain rice? The reason it is eaten as white rice is its full of Arsenic let alone other nasties.
Can you do a video on combining carbs with proteins and whether or not it’s a good idea? Some people like dr berg say that you shouldn’t have mixed meals because the insulin response is greater and that carbs should be eaten separate from proteins
Interesting all this. You know what, I am glad I have generational knowledge to rely on. All this information confirms that my elders know the best diet. They live until they are in the 90 with good health. They eat most things in moderation, and avoid any that cause them health issues as individuals. And they don't have issues with oxalates.
white BASMATI rice is a whole grain and very easy to digest. It looks white because the bran is very thin and clear or white. It's the only grain that really works for me. Rinse it five times before you cook it or until the water is clear when rinsing. That is IMPORTANT. If you see brown basmati that is not natural and not easy to digest! It is a hybrid of natural (white) basmati and brown rice. Just try a good quality BASMATI. It is naturally white and it is really delicious and smells like buttered popcorn . Cook it just right and the texture is heavenly too. PS Popcorn is horrible for your gut. Never eat puffed rice, rice cakes or popcorn. It is the worst thing for the gut.
Great thing to know also, if your refrigerate your rice and have it the next day, you will reduce the glycemic index. Also, reheating it thereafter, reduces it even more so.
Lol! I eat a ton of popcorn (literally just popped corn) everyday. I'll use it in dishes as a whole grain when I want a crunch as opposed to something soft like rice. My gut seems good 🤷♂️
@@DebbieTDP yes rice is rice. I was just saying white basmati rice is a whole grain rice, as opposed to the other sticky white rice which is brown rice with the bran removed. And I like it in small amounts, a couple times a week.
@@PrincessAloeVera you have wrong information, sorry. Brown basmati rice is considered a whole grain, meaning that it contains all three parts of the kernel - the germ, bran, and endosperm. Unlike brown basmati, white basmati is a refined grain, meaning that it has been stripped of many valuable nutrients during processing. Some studies suggest that eating more refined grains can negatively affect blood sugar control and may be associated with a higher risk of type 2 diabetes
It's dumb. You can't cook/heat a raw starch or it will turn into a high glycemic simple-carb. Btw, raw potato starch is nearly identical to casava starch (tapioca).
Probably worth noting the difference between big brand maple syrup (high fructose corn syrup) and real maple syrup...Mrs Buttersworth doesn't have a low glycemic index lol
Eventually we will all realize eating real whole food is all you really need to focus on. Fresh fruits and veggies, clean meats, some nuts and fermented foods and a little whole grain and beans. Eat only when you are hungry. Listen to your body. It really isn’t rocket science. If a food makes you react it is telling you something. Listen.
I dont ever remember in the years I have been watching Thomas seeing him wear a CGM. We dont see the back of his arms very often although he's not afraid to show them off either so would have thought I would have noticed by now.
I had to stop using honey in my recipes that had milk kefir and yougert, kept seeing pages talking about honey kills off the good probiotic and bacteria.
I heard cortisol briefly mentioned there and I totally agree with Dr. Saladino’s opinion on this. The impact on cortisol from eliminating carbs too much is very real. Without carbs it’s much more likely to overeat fat in an attempt to get enough calories in or undereat- which then can impact your sleep - which can impact your mental focus - which can lead to stress. Then you find yourself binging on carbs to handle the stress or trying to push through until the next day. I say this from the perspective of someone who has already met their weight loss goals however. Eliminating all carbs is effective as a short term diet and as a tool to reset your understanding and relationship to food. There may be some people out there that can completely eliminate carbs and be better off without them. I think however, the majority of people are better off with at least 100 - 200 carbs per day. I could be wrong. However, this is what I feel now, after dieting many years. Also I recommend to not skip breakfast. Your mental health is just as important as your physical health.
Carb timing DOES exist, at least in my experience. Loading carbs before HIIT makes it much much much more pleasant because of better peak performance and quicker muscle 'refills' dring relaxation phases. While taking carbs after a workout used to bring me un uncomfortable feeling. Fats+proteins after workouts feel much better.
nothing special about tapioca/cassava starch. Raw potato starch is pretty much the same thing with the same effect. But if you heat ANY raw starch (cook with it) the resistant starch grains rupture and you end up with easily digested regular starch - high glycemic carbs!... so what's the point? You have to consume it raw in a drink or other. Also, black-strap molasses has more vitamins and minerals that both honey and maple syrup. It's prob better to get your anti-oxidants somewhere else like cinnamon and cocao powder.
I am always extremely suspicious of people recommending to limit fruit intake. When you talk to someone who binges on pizza, oreos and coke, and they're looking to improve their health, and someone goes "now, you be careful with fruits, okay?". Chances are any random person you talk to actually needs to eat more fruit, whatever kind.

There is no science/evidence when it comes to nutrition.

Maple syrup is the only additive sugar I use, I put it mainly in kefir. Honey makes my blood sugar skyrocket and makes me feel like shit but maple syrup doesn't have that effect. Living in Quebec surely helps, we have 70% of the worldwide production of maple syrup and can find it for cheap all year round.
Plus you have access to the REAL stuff, most of us in other places (like the US) get duped by them using high fructose instead of the real stuff. Such a shame. You gotta make sure you are DILLIENTLY looking at labels these days and even thats not enough.

Insane numbers my man. Have you kept doing low carb or keto?
idiotic comment regarding eating meat that consumed normal animal foods.
I eat whole wheat bread daily - what is the reason for not doing so? Is rye bread a better choice? which whole grains are best?
I always disagreed with your previous stand on honey. I am so glad you changed your perspective, Thomas. I respect in you the ability to always evolve and your open mind.
100% cacao powder, some cacao butter and some maple syrup mixed together is awesome.
Quick note about honey. You need raw unpasteurized honey without various additives like sugar some manufacturers add to it. Budget honey is often just honey flavored sugar syrup.

@@kristiscabanashorts Black-strap molasses. More nutritious than both, and cheaper.
Cherry juice is a staple for me ever since I started getting gout.
I usually add it to my protein shake on lifting days.
I try not to eat too much bad gout foods/alcohol even while taking Allo for gout. Probably should add in cherry juice still tho eh?!
@@noahdensmore6016 I've never taken medications for it.
I usually only get it when I do keto. Cherry juice has been the best remedy to it for me.

Red potato is the same potato but the freshly gathered potato in the sping right?
What about black rice?
I am confused about the tapioca starch. The internet tells me that it has a high glycaemic index. Are you confusing it with resistant tapioca starch?
what other tropical fruits besides pineapple?
Young new red potatoes are actually low in oxolate. (See trying low oxolates for actual levels) But the larger ones definitely are high ox.

Fastest way to get carb depleted is to look at the prices of momentus products
Good idea to check out glucose levels
white BASMATI rice is a whole grain and very easy to digest. It looks white because the bran is very thin and clear or white. It's the only grain that really works for me. Rinse it five times before you cook it or until the water is clear when rinsing. That is IMPORTANT. If you see brown basmati that is not natural and not easy to digest! It is a hybrid of natural (white) basmati and brown rice. Just try a good quality BASMATI. It is naturally white and it is really delicious and smells like buttered popcorn . Cook it just right and the texture is heavenly too. PS Popcorn is horrible for your gut. Never eat puffed rice, rice cakes or popcorn. It is the worst thing for the gut.
Great thing to know also, if your refrigerate your rice and have it the next day, you will reduce the glycemic index. Also, reheating it thereafter, reduces it even more so.
Basmati rice is rice, higher glycemic index than pasta 😊
Lol! I eat a ton of popcorn (literally just popped corn) everyday. I'll use it in dishes as a whole grain when I want a crunch as opposed to something soft like rice. My gut seems good 🤷♂️
@@DebbieTDP yes rice is rice. I was just saying white basmati rice is a whole grain rice, as opposed to the other sticky white rice which is brown rice with the bran removed. And I like it in small amounts, a couple times a week.
@@PrincessAloeVera you have wrong information, sorry.
Brown basmati rice is considered a whole grain, meaning that it contains all three parts of the kernel - the germ, bran, and endosperm.
Unlike brown basmati, white basmati is a refined grain, meaning that it has been stripped of many valuable nutrients during processing. Some studies suggest that eating more refined grains can negatively affect blood sugar control and may be associated with a higher risk of type 2 diabetes
Yeah but is it Grade A or Grade B maple syrup?
Whole grains, and high fibre cause IBS and haemorrhoids
We do not have the digestive machinery to deal with insoluble fibre
Thanks for the tapioca tip. I needed that!
It's dumb. You can't cook/heat a raw starch or it will turn into a high glycemic simple-carb.
Btw, raw potato starch is nearly identical to casava starch (tapioca).
my primary source of carbs is crumbl cookie. trying to keep it healthy
I'm pretty sure pineapple is sprayed heavily with toxic stuff, but I would love to have some ORGANIC pineapple.
Green tea with raw honey is excellent for strengthening the immune system especially when dealing with allergies
In fact, honey including raw honey can contain the spore forming bacterium, Clostridium botulinum, that causes intestinal botulism
Probably worth noting the difference between big brand maple syrup (high fructose corn syrup) and real maple syrup...Mrs Buttersworth doesn't have a low glycemic index lol
The glucose monitor is very expensive and probably not practical for most people.
I did not know that about Maple syrup! Good to know.
Great info
Sprouted grain bread is best for bread. No bad oils either in most, especially if it’s found in the freezer at the grocery store.
I was a bit torn about maple syrup, thanks.
Sweet potatoes are high in oxalates, FYI.
I heard about that
He’s healthier now and he can handle more carbs now. It varies on the person.
Tapioca and kiwi are high oxalate.
Eventually we will all realize eating real whole food is all you really need to focus on. Fresh fruits and veggies, clean meats, some nuts and fermented foods and a little whole grain and beans. Eat only when you are hungry. Listen to your body. It really isn’t rocket science. If a food makes you react it is telling you something. Listen.
I LOVE my maple syrup. I put it in coffee or bananas or anything I want to sweeten for a treat.
Next week, he’ll be loving ice cream and soda with high fructose corn syrup.
Frustrating being a subscriber to this guy!
I put pure Canadian maple syrup on my bacon and eggs! Yum
This channel is like whiplash. Breathless guidance posing as authoritative- only to be debunked or thrown out 2 months later.
I dont ever remember in the years I have been watching Thomas seeing him wear a CGM. We dont see the back of his arms very often although he's not afraid to show them off either so would have thought I would have noticed by now.
I had to stop using honey in my recipes that had milk kefir and yougert, kept seeing pages talking about honey kills off the good probiotic and bacteria.
Great information. Thank you. What is your opinion about bananas?
Type 1 diabetic 54 years. Honey raises my blood glucose more than table sugar.
I changed my mind on oreo cookies. 12 a day to keep ldl down lol
My knees hurt just watching how quick he does those squats lol
What do you think of Ezekiel bread?
Whatever can spike blood glucose rapidly should be avoided
Try quality honey from like Savannah Bee Company.
In fact, honey including raw honey can contain the spore forming bacterium, Clostridium botulinum, that causes intestinal botulism
Carbs I like:
1. organic raw honey
2. medjool dates
3. organic berries
4. tropical fruits
5. organic corn
What about chips
Unsure about organic corn, but that's because I have gut issues. The rest make sense.
Dates are incredible- not just the taste (which is obv 🤌) but also nutrients
can we stop calling foods "carbs"? seriously, it's a f**kin macro, not a food.
agreed thats what i eat everyday and feel great besides corn. Corns wack
Brown rice has arsenic in it.
I heard cortisol briefly mentioned there and I totally agree with Dr. Saladino’s opinion on this.
The impact on cortisol from eliminating carbs too much is very real.
Without carbs it’s much more likely to overeat fat in an attempt to get enough calories in or undereat- which then can impact your sleep - which can impact your mental focus - which can lead to stress.
Then you find yourself binging on carbs to handle the stress or trying to push through until the next day.
I say this from the perspective of someone who has already met their weight loss goals however.
Eliminating all carbs is effective as a short term diet and as a tool to reset your understanding and relationship to food.
There may be some people out there that can completely eliminate carbs and be better off without them.
I think however, the majority of people are better off with at least 100 - 200 carbs per day.
I could be wrong. However, this is what I feel now, after dieting many years.
Also I recommend to not skip breakfast.
Your mental health is just as important as your physical health.
Well said
To my understanding, the majority of bromelain in a pineapple is in the stem.
Red potatoes are lower in oxalates than other potatoes. Sweet potatoes are actually high in oxalates.
Cole Robinson for the win.
The Saladino effect 😊
Great summary, thanks.
What do you make of quinoa as a substitute for rice? It’s working as a switch for me.
Carb timing DOES exist, at least in my experience. Loading carbs before HIIT makes it much much much more pleasant because of better peak performance and quicker muscle 'refills' dring relaxation phases. While taking carbs after a workout used to bring me un uncomfortable feeling. Fats+proteins after workouts feel much better.
Honey and maple syrup rise my blood sugar a lot, new study or not 😢
nothing special about tapioca/cassava starch. Raw potato starch is pretty much the same thing with the same effect.
But if you heat ANY raw starch (cook with it) the resistant starch grains rupture and you end up with easily digested regular starch - high glycemic carbs!... so what's the point? You have to consume it raw in a drink or other.
Also, black-strap molasses has more vitamins and minerals that both honey and maple syrup. It's prob better to get your anti-oxidants somewhere else like cinnamon and cocao powder.
I am always extremely suspicious of people recommending to limit fruit intake. When you talk to someone who binges on pizza, oreos and coke, and they're looking to improve their health, and someone goes "now, you be careful with fruits, okay?". Chances are any random person you talk to actually needs to eat more fruit, whatever kind.
Instructions unclear. I put maple syrup on my pancakes
