@@altagraciabaez5809 Well, I live in Europe (Germany), so I have no problems to buy non processed food. - avoid any processed food (labelled) - read the labels and count the sugar amount not calories - cook for yourself from scratch - buy low starchy vegetables - avoid consumption of starch, white bread, sugar and softdrinks (no sodas, fantas). Eat whole fruits instead. - avoid High Fructose Corn Sirup in any product - find the best way to achieve a satiety point while you eat. A bunch of home-made salad can make you full for many hours. Some people practice a carnivore diet, some keto or low carb diet. It doesn't really matter, the main thing is your blood sugar remains low, but it is still not hypoglycemic. - for check health, please estimate your homocysteine levels, vitamin d, fasting glucose and insulin. Talk to your doctor about it. - exercise not for calories, but for insulin sensitivity in your muscles. Personally, I prefer walking or biking, but not running. - you can find more advices at Dr. Jason Fung, Dr Sten Ekberg. But they are talking the same story.

Please, please keep talking about this! I have listened to many of these conversations between you two and I always hear something new. Thank you for making this information digestible and applicable.
My two favorite online doctors who can save humanity in the metabolic realm! Thank you both so much for all you endeavor to learn and teach to all who will listen!!! You’ve both been the help to restore what is possible to my health! I was a life long sugar and carb eater, along with healthy food. The sugar/carb junk nearly destroyed my life. I am forever grateful for all you have done thus far!!
I was eating keto, berries, nuts and veggies but still sick and unfamed and still had a bloated gut. I finally discovered what led to my insulin resistance and unexplained weight gain: GLYPHOSATE!!! I started eating organic. The weight started falling off and I feel SO much better! I'm healthy again.
If only we were not raised to be so trusting in the standard of care. To have known there was a different way 25 years ago. Dr Mark I needed you 16 years ago to have straightened me out. Lustig was the first video i watched that taught me the way. Sugar the bitter truth needs to be watched my all doctors, students, kids and adults to see how deep the rabbit hole can be. Or how simple it is. Too many get it wrong. To be right half the time isn't good enough, it may not get insulin down. CHEERS You two are a power house for good. Keep on. Love you Rob you research, passion and love for the kids has helped the adults too. I was so broke and i'm about to cry here. You saved me. It's so hard to get some to listen and figure out what to do.

Size isn't everything but I share this for perspective. From teens to late twenties, I was a size zero - couldn't gain. Late twenties to late thirties, I was a size two - my efforts finally paid off. I had a surprise baby in my late thirties - afterwards, I was a size six. 👍 A couple years later, I gained 45 pounds in two weeks!!!!!! Nobody could explain this to me or help me. I started a carnivore diet followed by a keto diet and I've dropped 27 lbs in two months. Thank you gentlemen. I am beginning to understand what my body has been going through. Making good, steady effort was never a challenge for me - having no results despite all my efforts was the challenge. Thank you!!
A journey is just that. A process. I went carnivore 10 months ago. Lost too much weight (I think) . But perhaps my body is telling me this is where I need to be.i feel better than I have in 30 years and I am fighting stage 4. Difficult to tell on a ongoing basis exactly where I am in my journey. I trust God to guide me and my body to keep me honest.
I like this episode the best. Don't find it interruptive. In fact I think it's the interaction that generate more insights and sharing from Dr Lustig! Thanks!
I want to express my gratitude for this amazing public conversation! One of the best conversations about metabolic health on RUclips by far! I have been following both of your work for years now, and your public discourse is truly saving lives! ✨👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Yes I did keto first and lost 75 pounds which was only like 5 pounds a month and now I’m second month doing carnivore my got issues are gone. I’m able to go to the bathroom every two days now before it was awful. All I can say is I’m never going back. They lied to me all those years and I’m 70. I started at 67 so it’s not too late do something for your brain and for your heart and your gut issues, thank you so much for your videos. I appreciate it. I follow a lot of the carnivore doctors all the good information. They have people think I’m crazy because they don’t eat any of the stuff that they put out. I had salami stuff like that. The people brought deviled eggs, but I’m not messing this up because I finally got it where it needs to be.❤
This is fabulous. I love that there are finally some validity to women’s claims about “hormone fat” insulin is a hormone. It is hard to lose weight when insulin resistant.
A family member developed PTSD and started smoking at 14. They were able to quit 8 yrs ago. They recently had angioplasty, and on the table, the cardiologist said not 1 blockage and they're I'D say 35 pounds overweight ,but they grew up eating healthy from their vegetable garden a lot of fish , sardines and chicken. They are now 86 and healthy.
"Angioplasty is a procedure used to open blocked coronary arteries caused by coronary artery disease. It restores blood flow to the heart muscle without open-heart surgery. Angioplasty can be done in an emergency setting, such as a heart attack." "Coronary artery disease is caused by plaque buildup in the wall of the arteries that supply blood to the heart (called coronary arteries). Plaque is made up of cholesterol deposits. Plaque buildup causes the inside of the arteries to narrow over time. This process is called atherosclerosis."
Ngl, this is yet another reason why I'd only ever homeschool. I've seen the nasty junk served by the vast majority of schools. Senator Amy Klobuchar even fought for pizza sauce to be classified as one of the "vegetables" in school lunches; and only changed her position when she wanted to run for president and people were calling out her ridiculous, anti-nutritional nonsense. No school will ever care about our children the way we as parents will.
I found out about the movie "Fed Up" while reading Dr. Hyman's resume. I watched the movie and enjoyed the presentation. I thought both of you were the stars of the movie because your work fighting metabolic dysfunction lead to this movie and the movement to get us all healthy. Thanks.
I think best compliance is learning how to cook! I have 2 sauce recipes for veggie stir fries and then make my own salad dressings. Very healthy and manageable long term. Way better then junk food and quick food at the restaurants.
I admit more than half of this went way over my head but I did appreciate Mark consistently trying to reword things so I could understand some of it and dumb it down for me…325 lbs full blown diabetes horrible neuropathy making my arms and legs constantly feel like I am plugged into electricity. I finally got continuous glucose monitor…really an eye opener but I am sad to admit I still don’t really understand insulin and how it works. 😂 thanks such great information!
I'm not sure if you have heard of him yet but if not, but if not please look up Dr. Jason Fung. Watch some of his videos, especially lectures. He breaks down how insulin works in the body better than many others. I couldn't understand it until I started watching his videos.
The irony is that I have always aimed to have a Low GI diet to ensure my insulin spikes are kept at a minimum and it has always been a blessing. Only the last few years after starting eating high GI foods I've realised the negative impact on my weight and health.
This is a conversation I always revisit. I use it as a reminder that there are so many variables involved in creating good metabolic health. Keep on going. You can do it.
This world is flooded with imperfections since the beginning of time and probably always will be. So, just do the best you can and enjoy your life while we are here. ❤️
Hi Dr. Mark- this has nothing to do with the podcast . I' ve listened to multiple podcasts over the hears and have heard about your rather prolonged health challenges . Can ngrats on your persostence and n fighting for your health. Ive noticed you have done a fair amount of travelling- Bhutan, Sardinia, mongolia, the Masai tribe. I am glad you have been able to travel . I get the sense that the travel has been a very joyfull experience you. You certainly deserve it after what you have been through- mercury pousoning, C Diff, back surgeries.... I am glad you seem so happy
I totally agree. Why do you have this dr Robert on if you keep interrupting him? We know you know. This is for us. Not you. We realize you know. Get over yourself!
Whilst he is undoubtedly an incredible expert I feel frustrated that he didn’t answer the question about WHAT to eat / yes fish and meat - but then bananas are a no because they brown - I don’t want to do carnivore / happy to do keto but do any of you have a link to more succinct resources ? Thank you so much in advance if you do - I am in Tasmania Australia for reference 🙏🏻
I did a google search and it had Robert Lustig's cookbook and it laid it out really well. Basically it was real food - half plate veggies, then meat and starch. I found the whole book for free online because he released it during covid for free. Hope that helps!
Problem with this, while very informative, is the lack of useful discussion of what type of dietary intake you need to head towards to achieve lower insulin. Yes, they talk about how processed food is bad for you, but what exactly are the types of things should make up our diet to help us reach our goals. There’s too much why and not enough how in this video. Even Lustig says he’s changed his mind in the last 2 or 3 years about what he thinks is important.
OK, I agree. I would suggest if you buy packaged food limit to to two maximum three ingredients. Don't buy processed oils. Don't eat sugar. If you have to use sweetners, maybe use stevia. Don't eat regularly potatoes, bread, pasta, cake, biscuits, and chips/crisps. Eat a salad with oil vingar dressing for lunch every day and skip breakfast five days a week. Have your evening meal before 7 pm, then only coffee/tea until lunch the next day. Eat meat and fish with green veg and low density veg with every evening meal. If you have to snack, use pistachios, walnuts, or brasil nuts. Eat lesser sweet fruits with Kefir as deserts. Lastly, treats are OK but should be occasional treats. Cook all your own food and eat out as a special occasion. If your drinking alcohol limit it to weekends and favour wine over beer and watch the volume. I've done this, and it's changed everything.
Wow! Ya'll are awesome! That is so educational! How exciting to hear two people so passionate about resolving the root cause of our biggest health issues! Thanks! You are heros!
Dr. Hyman, how did you detox the patient from mercury? I've had mercury fillings removed, ,and have felt awful ever since. Do you have a video on this? Can you link it here? Thanks so much for the work you do.
I was looking at all the cerals the other day. All of them had sugar, fat and salt in the top ingredients. Even Kellogs Rice Krispies are designed to be addictive. However they are heavily fortified like a multivitamin...
Food chemists design them to have a "Bliss Point" (THEIR name for it!) They WANT food to be addictive. I used to be obese when I was eating allegedly "healthy" food. . . now I've maintained a healthy BMI by eating REAL food.
I thought this was an overall very good and informative video. I decided to check out Dr. Lustig's product "Munch Munch", and I was surprised to see carrageenan in the ingredients list. He made the point later in the video that carrageenan and other product additives are detrimental to health. Why should his product include it?
We have terrible trouble with violent young teenagers here in Australia and I am sure it is sugar and highly refined food that is causing it. Devolution of society it certainly is.
I’m diagnosed with Hashimoto’s. Eat an anti inflammatory diet. Literally NO sugar and low carb, intermittent fast, Get sun exposure and exercise regularly. Even with meds and natural supplements My blood sugar is still borderline diabetes. And I can’t lose weight no matter what I do. I can’t figure out why??plus My T3 is not converting to T4. I’m stumped.
Question: are you male or female ? If you are female the drop in estrogen in perimenopause/ menopause can cause insulin resistance. Also T3 is the ACTIVE form of the thyroid hormone T4 is inactive form . Did you mean T4 is not being converted to T3?? If this is what you meant , I think this reaction requires selenium( not sure) . I have thyroid problems but Hashimotos is not my issue. Dr. Ridha Arem has written a book called the Thyroid Solution that I recommend. Are you on thyroid meds? What is your TSH?? For some people ( like me) who had my thyroid removed and can't efficiently convert T4 to T3 , I take a combination of meds, one med that is pure T4 and one med that is pure T3. T3 only can be too overstimulating . Good luck.
@@lindajones4849 I'm female. Yes sorry- I meant T4 TO T3 Conversion. My estrogen has been checked and looks ok. I am on Tirosint 50/75 mcg and a natural med that has T3 in it. And I east brazil nuts to the point that my selenium is high, so I backed off for a while. Not sure what to do but Thank you for the comment!
Hey there! I’m a 57 year old female and I take synthroid for my thyroid. My weight loss did not start happening until I incorporated fasting with low carb eating. The drop in estrogen will sometimes make women insulin resistant and that was the case for me. I did fasting gradually by first eliminating breakfast, went to OMAD, and this month I’m fasting all day on M, W, and F. This has been a game changer for me. I hope this helps.
I was a 10 lb baby and was metabolically messed up. Allergies to most foods. Had to be fed soy. Had cradlecap, jaundice. I;ve had blepharitis forever and excezma to some extent. Even after changing my lifestyle. Mom was messed up for sure. She later got cancer, survived and is still fighting weigh retention. Very complex topic but it all comes back to natural, intact, caveman/basic foods. Not no carbs, not all meat, not all veg. But you sure can try any version and pretty good. Just supplement with most versions. Some would say you shouldn't have to. Well if you grow your own on a farm with great cow fertilizer and great soil you might be able to. Good luck if you neighbor is slinging the roundup everywhere.
What I found most interesting was when my husband was diagnosed with insulin resistance he was very thin and fit. BUT he was eating way to much sugar, carbs drinking orange juice etc. Going on the keto protocol worked well for him.
Amazing stuff, eye opening medical conversation about the food and its importance to the humankind to mitigate the metabolic diseases like insulin resistance, diabetes, obesity etc. Thanks a lot both of you for making us to understand the importance of it 🙏🙏
Luckily Couric's movie Fed Up was here in theaters years ago and had a huge impact on me. However, it took me ten years to sort it all out, thanks in large part to researchers/doctors like Lustig, Hyman, Attia, Phinney & Volek, Fung, Mutzel, Gundry, Bredesen, Bozworth, Berry, Bikman, Cummins, Ekberg, Fallon, Rheaume-Bleue, Perlmutter, Davis, Pelz, and more ...
You came back from where?? Tanzania??? Is there a continent you haven't visited? Just st kidding, really I'm glad you have had the opportunity to travel so much..
I have listened to the podcasts about GLP1 and read some touching comments from diabetes who have lost massive amounts of weight and have their glucose under control. So the drug sounded great and I don't blame people for trying it. Then I found some comments from people who said the GI side effects almost killed them . One woman said she couldn't eat for 5 days and fortunately the neighbors called an ambulance ( ? GI blockage). Took the lady months to recover, partially due to muscle loss. It would be great if they had some wayof telling who was at high risk for GI side effects. I agree with one comment that there will eventually law suits against these drugs. I agree be sure the docs want to keep people on forever and the longer you stay on a drug, the more side effects are more likely to materialize.
It sounds frustrating when the host interrupts the guest too often. I kindly suggest addressing this issue to enhance the listening experience even further. I love your content tho! Great content! Keep smashing it. Peace
This is a great detailed explanation on weight loss, guys. And it’s so true there are so many factors that can contribute to stalling the process - it’s a minefield. For me, I feel that my problem has always been facing higher cortisol levels, lower testosterone levels, and metabolic adaptation after weeks or months of trying any kind of diet with caloric restriction. One great thing I’ve tried over the past year that has worked wonders is standardized hot-water Tongkat Ali root extract. Just 2 capsules (400mg) a day over the course of a few months has helped keep my stress (cortisol) levels low and my hormone levels in balance even in light of attempting things like caloric restriction + intense workouts. Even better, my metabolism’s never felt more efficient. Gonna keep on it and see how far I can take it.
I've struggled with a food addiction, especially towards sugar. There were times when I'd wake up in the middle of the night intending to get a glass of water, only to find myself indulging in chocolate cake or dipping into a jar of Nutella. In the past, I used to consume large Redbulls and Toblerones throughout the day. However, I've made positive changes and shifted my focus to a healthier addiction: playing badminton and jogging. Anyways I was curious when I saw this, is this Tongkat Ali extract a supplement? And if does claim to do things as you say, I'd like to try it for myself!
It's great stuff, man. If you don't live in Malaysia (where the best stuff is), brands like AKARALI also deliver internationally. Very useful for when you travel a lot for work!
Mark interrupts Mark interrupts Mark interrupts Mark interrupts Mark interrupts We are trying to learn The information from the doctor is God send🙏🏽 Mark interrupts Mark interrupts
I don't understand how stress works. There was a time in my life when i was super thin and extremely stressed and lost more weight. Does it shift once you get over 40? Stressed and stop losing weight?
I truly appreciate this interview and the work both of these doctors are doing. There’s still conflicting information. Dr. Lustig stated in this interview that we should avoid emulsifiers and specifically named carrageenan as on of them. Yet, the Monch Monch product he promotes in this same video contains carrageenan. I do agree with eating whole, single ingredient foods as the best solution for health.
Look for for natural foods, like what your ancient ancestors ate, not modern processed stuff. And if you're trying to lose weight, choose low-carb foods (you can find the carb level of most foods by googling it). I used to be obese and I used to have hypertension, but now I'm a healthy BMI and I have perfect blood pressure. Some natural foods are only good as treats. For instance, honey and maple syrup are natural and ancestral, _BUT_ they used to be special treats, they weren't foods our ancestors could eat every day. Avoid processed sugar and grains. Also, beware -- don't let companies trick you with "net carbs". "Net carbs" usually exclude sugar alcohols despite the fact that those SHOULD count as carbs. Look for "total carbs".
Thank you for all your hard work and for explaining everything so clearly. I find these pod casts so interesting and l informative. Keep up the good work. Sharon UK
Agreed. I like Mark Hyman, but I struggle to watch him with guests for any length of time due to this interuppting. It’s almost as if he is insecure about his knowledge on the subject matter and attempting to show that he knows as much about the topic as his guest.
I am so confused. . . If you “cannot” lose weight unless insulin is low”, how do the McDougallers say to eat high starch, mostly potatoes, etc., how are they so slim? I welcome your responses and clarification please. God bless!!
From what I gather of all these medical professionals is- it’s all specific to one’s makeup. What works for one doesn’t for another. It could be confusing because the way they relay their message makes it seem like you should follow their advice,nutritional information, etc…
Mainly it come down to the processed foods, that's what all they podcasts have in common. We've been eating potatoes for thousands of years. It's not the potato that does it, it's the processed foods that are doing it.
Because this video is sadly misinformation, and look at the guy giving advice--he is very overweight. Calories in = Calories out will always make up the MAJORITY of weight loss. Insulin has a small factor in this but is not the deciding factor; hence why yes you can literally eat twinkies and doritos (search up the professor who did the Twinkie Diet) and lose weight while increasing health markers! I'm surprised to see this video published,
After I saw that Dr Robert Lustig recommended the Fasting Insulin test, I asked my doctor for it since my last A1C was 5.8 so I decided to start taking control of my health and did some drastic changes after 2 months and a half the results surprised me... 2.2 uIU/mL and my A1C changed to 5.7. It has something to do with my physical activity? I'm a fitness instructor so I workout a lot! plus 2 big dogs that I walk for about 5 miles a day.
Or mental/stress related. It's not only about the food, it's also about the untold factors like how your body is processing what you eat, which is greatly affected by mental health. Which is why I think the information in the podcast is not complete.
Sometimes I eat poison and sometimes I eat medicine. I'm going to start referring to foods this way. Also, before consuming, I will ask if this will...Protect my Liver, Feed my Gut, and Support my Brian. This definitely puts things in perspective for me.
Love this idea. Thanks.

It's not this complicated! Energy balance etc seriously
Most people know this and they don't change until they suffer some serious consequences.
I'd like to thank Dr. Lustig for showing me the way how to reverse preT2D. I did it without taking any meds.
Some advice 😢 Pliss

Thankyou

Far from it... Hyman is so irritating
I was eating keto, berries, nuts and veggies but still sick and unfamed and still had a bloated gut. I finally discovered what led to my insulin resistance and unexplained weight gain: GLYPHOSATE!!! I started eating organic. The weight started falling off and I feel SO much better! I'm healthy again.
Congrats , great detective work. Did you get glyphosate levels. Checked or did you just try organic food to see if that made a difference
How did you find out Thicker99?
Don't eat vegetables don't eat nuts eat very little berries. Eat meat eggs some dairy or be sick.
😂
How did you figure out it was glyphosate?

Dr Lustig is BRILLIANT!🎉
Thank you for sharing all your wise information on this podcast❤
I want to express my gratitude for this amazing public conversation! One of the best conversations about metabolic health on RUclips by far! I have been following both of your work for years now, and your public discourse is truly saving lives! ✨👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Yes I did keto first and lost 75 pounds which was only like 5 pounds a month and now I’m second month doing carnivore my got issues are gone. I’m able to go to the bathroom every two days now before it was awful. All I can say is I’m never going back. They lied to me all those years and I’m 70. I started at 67 so it’s not too late do something for your brain and for your heart and your gut issues, thank you so much for your videos. I appreciate it. I follow a lot of the carnivore doctors all the good information. They have people think I’m crazy because they don’t eat any of the stuff that they put out. I had salami stuff like that. The people brought deviled eggs, but I’m not messing this up because I finally got it where it needs to be.❤
I am such a long time fan of both you Dr. Hyman and Dr. Lustig. Thank you for all you both do, and especially for "Fed Up."
This is fabulous. I love that there are finally some validity to women’s claims about “hormone fat” insulin is a hormone. It is hard to lose weight when insulin resistant.
Am hanging at the edge of my seat listening to the expert guest about to explain a key finding and the interviewer INTERRUPTS. SOOOOO ANNNNOYING
He’s not “an interviewer” he’s an expert in his own right. You’re getting useful info from them both.
A family member developed PTSD and started smoking at 14. They were able to quit 8 yrs ago. They recently had angioplasty, and on the table, the cardiologist said not 1 blockage and they're I'D say 35 pounds overweight ,but they grew up eating healthy from their vegetable garden a lot of fish , sardines and chicken. They are now 86 and healthy.
"Angioplasty is a procedure used to open blocked coronary arteries caused by coronary artery disease. It restores blood flow to the heart muscle without open-heart surgery. Angioplasty can be done in an emergency setting, such as a heart attack."
"Coronary artery disease is caused by plaque buildup in the wall of the arteries that supply blood to the heart (called coronary arteries). Plaque is made up of cholesterol deposits. Plaque buildup causes the inside of the arteries to narrow over time. This process is called atherosclerosis."
Huh???
I am so glad that the changes in the school lunch system are starting to happen. ❤ This is core issue making the kids addicted from early age.
Ngl, this is yet another reason why I'd only ever homeschool. I've seen the nasty junk served by the vast majority of schools.
Senator Amy Klobuchar even fought for pizza sauce to be classified as one of the "vegetables" in school lunches; and only changed her position when she wanted to run for president and people were calling out her ridiculous, anti-nutritional nonsense.
No school will ever care about our children the way we as parents will.
I found out about the movie "Fed Up" while reading Dr. Hyman's resume. I watched the movie and enjoyed the presentation. I thought both of you were the stars of the movie because your work fighting metabolic dysfunction lead to this movie and the movement to get us all healthy. Thanks.
Thank you
On my short list to watch
There is a Fed Up website… also it’s similar to Cereal
Killers, Overfed and Undernourished and That Sugar film, all worth a watch.
I think best compliance is learning how to cook! I have 2 sauce recipes for veggie stir fries and then make my own salad dressings. Very healthy and manageable long term. Way better then junk food and quick food at the restaurants.
I admit more than half of this went way over my head but I did appreciate Mark consistently trying to reword things so I could understand some of it and dumb it down for me…325 lbs full blown diabetes horrible neuropathy making my arms and legs constantly feel like I am plugged into electricity. I finally got continuous glucose monitor…really an eye opener but I am sad to admit I still don’t really understand insulin and how it works. 😂 thanks such great information!
Keep on Keepin' on. You will soon find what works for you in this fight for energy, lean body mass, and enjoyment in healthy food choices .❤
I wish you success and health! ❤
By the way, your dog is adorable! 🐕🐶🐾
I'm not sure if you have heard of him yet but if not, but if not please look up Dr. Jason Fung. Watch some of his videos, especially lectures. He breaks down how insulin works in the body better than many others. I couldn't understand it until I started watching his videos.
You don’t have to understand it. Just follow his advice cut out all the carb and it will turn around.
The irony is that I have always aimed to have a Low GI diet to ensure my insulin spikes are kept at a minimum and it has always been a blessing. Only the last few years after starting eating high GI foods I've realised the negative impact on my weight and health.
Hyman & Lustig
Tag Team Champions of the World.
coffee is not addictive to me, but then again neither is alcohol, sugar definitely is to me :)
This is a conversation I always revisit. I use it as a reminder that there are so many variables involved in creating good metabolic health. Keep on going. You can do it.
This world is flooded with imperfections since the beginning of time and probably always will be. So, just do the best you can and enjoy your life while we are here. ❤️
My two absolutely favorite doctors in one video, I am so here for it!
Hi Dr. Mark- this has nothing to do with the podcast . I' ve listened to multiple podcasts over the hears and have heard about your rather prolonged health challenges . Can ngrats on your persostence and n fighting for your health. Ive noticed you have done a fair amount of travelling- Bhutan, Sardinia, mongolia, the Masai tribe. I am glad you have been able to travel . I get the sense that the travel has been a very joyfull experience you. You certainly deserve it after what you have been through- mercury pousoning, C Diff, back surgeries.... I am glad you seem so happy
I totally agree. Why do you have this dr Robert on if you keep interrupting him? We know you know. This is for us. Not you. We realize you know. Get over yourself!
Whilst he is undoubtedly an incredible expert I feel frustrated that he didn’t answer the question about WHAT to eat / yes fish and meat - but then bananas are a no because they brown - I don’t want to do carnivore / happy to do keto but do any of you have a link to more succinct resources ? Thank you so much in advance if you do - I am in Tasmania Australia for reference 🙏🏻
I did a google search and it had Robert Lustig's cookbook and it laid it out really well. Basically it was real food - half plate veggies, then meat and starch. I found the whole book for free online because he released it during covid for free. Hope that helps!
Humbleness is a virtue, Mark, and Dr. Lustig is an epitome of the humbleness.
Problem with this, while very informative, is the lack of useful discussion of what type of dietary intake you need to head towards to achieve lower insulin. Yes, they talk about how processed food is bad for you, but what exactly are the types of things should make up our diet to help us reach our goals. There’s too much why and not enough how in this video. Even Lustig says he’s changed his mind in the last 2 or 3 years about what he thinks is important.
OK, I agree. I would suggest if you buy packaged food limit to to two maximum three ingredients. Don't buy processed oils. Don't eat sugar. If you have to use sweetners, maybe use stevia. Don't eat regularly potatoes, bread, pasta, cake, biscuits, and chips/crisps. Eat a salad with oil vingar dressing for lunch every day and skip breakfast five days a week. Have your evening meal before 7 pm, then only coffee/tea until lunch the next day. Eat meat and fish with green veg and low density veg with every evening meal. If you have to snack, use pistachios, walnuts, or brasil nuts. Eat lesser sweet fruits with Kefir as deserts. Lastly, treats are OK but should be occasional treats. Cook all your own food and eat out as a special occasion. If your drinking alcohol limit it to weekends and favour wine over beer and watch the volume. I've done this, and it's changed everything.
@@tonyprice1526 very nice ❤
Agree with Tony Price. I did the same and change my life.
We’re all driving off the cliff with insulin resistance only for you amazing guys!!! ❤❤❤❤
Wow! Ya'll are awesome! That is so educational! How exciting to hear two people so passionate about resolving the root cause of our biggest health issues! Thanks!
You are heros!
Dr. Hyman, how did you detox the patient from mercury? I've had mercury fillings removed, ,and have felt awful ever since. Do you have a video on this? Can you link it here? Thanks so much for the work you do.
2 of my most favorite doctors in town! ❤😊
Omg Dr Hyman stop interrupting with all your glories. Please have another podcast fir that
I was looking at all the cerals the other day. All of them had sugar, fat and salt in the top ingredients. Even Kellogs Rice Krispies are designed to be addictive. However they are heavily fortified like a multivitamin...
Food chemists design them to have a "Bliss Point" (THEIR name for it!)
They WANT food to be addictive. I used to be obese when I was eating allegedly "healthy" food. . . now I've maintained a healthy BMI by eating REAL food.
Thank you. Great conversation! So enlightening on multiple levels. Thie info is so dense.This could be broken down into many shorts.
Always thanks a lots to both of you, very respectfully!
As a nurse, I’d love to find a doctor like these two, in my area, to work for.
Both of you have helped me save my life!!TYVM!! 🙏⚡️💪😎🤗
I thought this was an overall very good and informative video. I decided to check out Dr. Lustig's product "Munch Munch", and I was surprised to see carrageenan in the ingredients list. He made the point later in the video that carrageenan and other product additives are detrimental to health. Why should his product include it?
Skillful interviewing. Great content, and Mark is an adroit translator of the medical terms and concepts.
awesome, thank you for bringing Lustig on!
This was insane!wow wow wow. Thankyou so much for this brilliant nutrition/science marathon. Love to you❤
A good rule of thumb - don't buy/eat anything with a food ingredient label. He is missing that PUFAs also upset the ion ratio - effect the ROS switch.
Straus organic ice cream has no carrageenan or guar gum.
Check your labels - especially in dairy.
We have terrible trouble with violent young teenagers here in Australia and I am sure it is sugar and highly refined food that is causing it. Devolution of society it certainly is.
I feel so sorry for the kids yes it's the pollution and chemicals...the life now is not worth living
This was one of those interviews where I constantly said omg wow. Wow, such an informative interview. I have learnt so much.
I’m diagnosed with Hashimoto’s. Eat an anti inflammatory diet. Literally NO sugar and low carb, intermittent fast, Get sun exposure and exercise regularly. Even with meds and natural supplements My blood sugar is still borderline diabetes. And I can’t lose weight no matter what I do. I can’t figure out why??plus My T3 is not converting to T4. I’m stumped.
Question: are you male or female ? If you are female the drop in estrogen in perimenopause/ menopause can cause insulin resistance. Also T3 is the ACTIVE form of the thyroid hormone T4 is inactive form . Did you mean T4 is not being converted to T3?? If this is what you meant , I think this reaction requires selenium( not sure) . I have thyroid problems but Hashimotos is not my issue. Dr. Ridha Arem has written a book called the Thyroid Solution that I recommend. Are you on thyroid meds? What is your TSH?? For some people ( like me) who had my thyroid removed and can't efficiently convert T4 to T3 , I take a combination of meds, one med that is pure T4 and one med that is pure T3. T3 only can be too overstimulating . Good luck.
Sleep well, reduce stress, exercise more, do a programme to look at your blood glucose via cgm but supported - there are several I think
@@lindajones4849 I'm female. Yes sorry- I meant T4 TO T3 Conversion. My estrogen has been checked and looks ok. I am on Tirosint 50/75 mcg and a natural med that has T3 in it. And I east brazil nuts to the point that my selenium is high, so I backed off for a while. Not sure what to do but Thank you for the comment!
Hey there! I’m a 57 year old female and I take synthroid for my thyroid. My weight loss did not start happening until I incorporated fasting with low carb eating. The drop in estrogen will sometimes make women insulin resistant and that was the case for me. I did fasting gradually by first eliminating breakfast, went to OMAD, and this month I’m fasting all day on M, W, and F. This has been a game changer for me. I hope this helps.
Have you fasted?
I was a 10 lb baby and was metabolically messed up. Allergies to most foods. Had to be fed soy. Had cradlecap, jaundice. I;ve had blepharitis forever and excezma to some extent. Even after changing my lifestyle. Mom was messed up for sure. She later got cancer, survived and is still fighting weigh retention.
Very complex topic but it all comes back to natural, intact, caveman/basic foods. Not no carbs, not all meat, not all veg. But you sure can try any version and pretty good. Just supplement with most versions. Some would say you shouldn't have to. Well if you grow your own on a farm with great cow fertilizer and great soil you might be able to. Good luck if you neighbor is slinging the roundup everywhere.
Really appreciate you guys. This dhould be taught in schools. Thanks again
Whan an amazing human being Dr Lustig is. Thank you for sharing all your knowledge with us!
I hope Dr Mark Hyman is ok. He looks unwell. Prayers for him!🙏
He's breathing heavy isn't he
Mark you are a Great interviewer. !!! THANKS
What I found most interesting was when my husband was diagnosed with insulin resistance he was very thin and fit. BUT he was eating way to much sugar, carbs drinking orange juice etc. Going on the keto protocol worked well for him.
Fiber constipates me whether cooked or raw. Will Lustig’s product have the same effect on me?
What kind of fiber? Start with just a little and consume with lots of water.
Thank you so much for such an informative talk.
Eat live food! All local grocery stores sells dead food soil health is human health
Imagine going to a dinner party and sitting between this pair 🤣
That is my dream dinner party!!!!
😂😂😂😅😅😅😅❤
I am confused. He says carrageenan is a no but it’s one of the 3 ingredients in his monch monch….
Amazing stuff, eye opening medical conversation about the food and its importance to the humankind to mitigate the metabolic diseases like insulin resistance, diabetes, obesity etc. Thanks a lot both of you for making us to understand the importance of it 🙏🙏
Luckily Couric's movie Fed Up was here in theaters years ago and had a huge impact on me. However, it took me ten years to sort it all out, thanks in large part to researchers/doctors like Lustig, Hyman, Attia, Phinney & Volek, Fung, Mutzel, Gundry, Bredesen, Bozworth, Berry, Bikman, Cummins, Ekberg, Fallon, Rheaume-Bleue, Perlmutter, Davis, Pelz, and more ...
And Dr. Eric Berg!
You came back from where?? Tanzania??? Is there a continent you haven't visited? Just st kidding, really I'm glad you have had the opportunity to travel so much..
I have listened to the podcasts about GLP1 and read some touching comments from diabetes who have lost massive amounts of weight and have their glucose under control. So the drug sounded great and I don't blame people for trying it. Then I found some comments from people who said the GI side effects almost killed them . One woman said she couldn't eat for 5 days and fortunately the neighbors called an ambulance ( ? GI blockage). Took the lady months to recover, partially due to muscle loss. It would be great if they had some wayof telling who was at high risk for GI side effects. I agree with one comment that there will eventually law suits against these drugs. I agree be sure the docs want to keep people on forever and the longer you stay on a drug, the more side effects are more likely to materialize.
Yes all of the above!
It sounds frustrating when the host interrupts the guest too often. I kindly suggest addressing this issue to enhance the listening experience even further. I love your content tho! Great content! Keep smashing it. Peace
This is a great detailed explanation on weight loss, guys. And it’s so true there are so many factors that can contribute to stalling the process - it’s a minefield. For me, I feel that my problem has always been facing higher cortisol levels, lower testosterone levels, and metabolic adaptation after weeks or months of trying any kind of diet with caloric restriction. One great thing I’ve tried over the past year that has worked wonders is standardized hot-water Tongkat Ali root extract. Just 2 capsules (400mg) a day over the course of a few months has helped keep my stress (cortisol) levels low and my hormone levels in balance even in light of attempting things like caloric restriction + intense workouts. Even better, my metabolism’s never felt more efficient. Gonna keep on it and see how far I can take it.
I've struggled with a food addiction, especially towards sugar. There were times when I'd wake up in the middle of the night intending to get a glass of water, only to find myself indulging in chocolate cake or dipping into a jar of Nutella. In the past, I used to consume large Redbulls and Toblerones throughout the day. However, I've made positive changes and shifted my focus to a healthier addiction: playing badminton and jogging. Anyways I was curious when I saw this, is this Tongkat Ali extract a supplement? And if does claim to do things as you say, I'd like to try it for myself!
It's great stuff, man. If you don't live in Malaysia (where the best stuff is), brands like AKARALI also deliver internationally. Very useful for when you travel a lot for work!
Wonderful and necessary interview. Thank You!

I don't understand how stress works. There was a time in my life when i was super thin and extremely stressed and lost more weight. Does it shift once you get over 40? Stressed and stop losing weight?
Agreed, I think the hormones shift as we age and stress cause weight gain now that we are older
Yes. Entering menopause caused weight gain.
Don’t interrupt please and let the guest speak
Skip to 1 hour 20 minutes for their cure.
Too much INTERRUPTING😮
I was thinking the same thing
I know.
I truly appreciate this interview and the work both of these doctors are doing. There’s still conflicting information. Dr. Lustig stated in this interview that we should avoid emulsifiers and specifically named carrageenan as on of them. Yet, the Monch Monch product he promotes in this same video contains carrageenan.
I do agree with eating whole, single ingredient foods as the best solution for health.
My 2 faves! I have all of Lustigs books and a few of Hymans.. and have introduced them to many in my pharmacy practice over the years
What do we eat ? I wish we can get a list.
Real food. Food as close to the way that they appear in nature as possible.
Real, minimally processed food
Look for for natural foods, like what your ancient ancestors ate, not modern processed stuff. And if you're trying to lose weight, choose low-carb foods (you can find the carb level of most foods by googling it). I used to be obese and I used to have hypertension, but now I'm a healthy BMI and I have perfect blood pressure.
Some natural foods are only good as treats. For instance, honey and maple syrup are natural and ancestral, _BUT_ they used to be special treats, they weren't foods our ancestors could eat every day.
Avoid processed sugar and grains.
Also, beware -- don't let companies trick you with "net carbs". "Net carbs" usually exclude sugar alcohols despite the fact that those SHOULD count as carbs. Look for "total carbs".
Meat, eggs, low glycemic fruit and low oxalate veg.
Fasting.
Thank you for all your hard work and for explaining everything so clearly. I find these pod casts so interesting and l informative. Keep up the good work. Sharon UK
I appreciate this discussion. But, please don't interrupt the guest while he is speaking. You can add your points to it after he finished talking.
This is truly so educational and I really appreciate
Question: Increased Serotonin level increases serum insulin level. Is that the reason that people on SSRI or SNRI cause weight gain?
I would like to know more about this too
Agreed. I like Mark Hyman, but I struggle to watch him with guests for any length of time due to this interuppting. It’s almost as if he is insecure about his knowledge on the subject matter and attempting to show that he knows as much about the topic as his guest.
Two great personalities of Modern Medical science ❤
Actually this is a question. Is it okay to supplement with Leptin?
Great video. Thank you gentlemen.
I am so confused. . . If you “cannot” lose weight unless insulin is low”, how do the McDougallers say to eat high starch, mostly potatoes, etc., how are they so slim? I welcome your responses and clarification please. God bless!!
From what I gather of all these medical professionals is- it’s all specific to one’s makeup. What works for one doesn’t for another. It could be confusing because the way they relay their message makes it seem like you should follow their advice,nutritional information, etc…
@@yvonnel7777 that’s so true. So how can we find out what works for “us”? Ugh, so confused with all of these doctors!!😏
I hear you but, to add to the confusion, both ideas work. Keep researching and tweaking your diet and you'll figure what works for you.
Mainly it come down to the processed foods, that's what all they podcasts have in common. We've been eating potatoes for thousands of years. It's not the potato that does it, it's the processed foods that are doing it.
Because this video is sadly misinformation, and look at the guy giving advice--he is very overweight. Calories in = Calories out will always make up the MAJORITY of weight loss. Insulin has a small factor in this but is not the deciding factor; hence why yes you can literally eat twinkies and doritos (search up the professor who did the Twinkie Diet) and lose weight while increasing health markers! I'm surprised to see this video published,
Thanks very much two great, wonderful scientists. Top notch conversation.
Mark, please don’t INTERRUPT!!!!
After I saw that Dr Robert Lustig recommended the Fasting Insulin test, I asked my doctor for it since my last A1C was 5.8 so I decided to start taking control of my health and did some drastic changes after 2 months and a half the results surprised me... 2.2 uIU/mL and my A1C changed to 5.7. It has something to do with my physical activity? I'm a fitness instructor so I workout a lot! plus 2 big dogs that I walk for about 5 miles a day.
Or mental/stress related. It's not only about the food, it's also about the untold factors like how your body is processing what you eat, which is greatly affected by mental health. Which is why I think the information in the podcast is not complete.
Thank you for the translation Mark!
Great Convo!
