I find this kind of reporting incredibly disappointing. In the context of sustainability of a keto diet, my wife and I are in our early 70s. Twenty plus years ago we followed the food pyramid regime closely and found we kept adding on weight. I peaked out at 83 Kgm (on a 170 cm frame). Finally we removed highly processed food from our diet and then came across the paleo concept. We moved steadily toward paleo then found information on LCHF and again adjusted our diet. Then we heard about keto and adjusted our diet further. We have spent at least the last 5 years on keto and enjoy sticking to the diet because it works! My weight is now around the 67-68 kgm and has been for years. I walk and cycle long distances at reasonable speeds (6 kph for walking and 25 kph for cycling) and never run out of energy. I no longer bother health practitioners. I guess non-keto eaters have trouble understanding how people like my wife and I stick to our diet but once your body no longer requires sugar or carbs to be edible, it can enjoy unbelievably flavoursome meals - and only need two each day. I say to non-keto eaters you don’t know what you are missing!
Amen! My husband and I are in our 70's and have been living the keto lifestyle for around 6 months now. Both of us have lost so much weight and feel much healthier than we did in our younger years, but of course, friends just love to tell us it's going to kill us, even though they can see with their own eyes how much better we are!
I know right? It's the only time in my life I've been able to take weight off and keep it off. Before I was yo-yo dieting for most of my adult life. Now that I've discovered the low carb and keto lifestyles, I find that I can keep the weight off that I've lost (25 lb). Now I'm working on losing more. And I feel so good! In fact I know exactly when I've gone into ketosis because suddenly my energy level increases, my mood mellows, and I just get happy LOL. It's so noticeable that I'll be trying to get back into ketosis and I'll be going along at work or whatever, and suddenly my eyes open wide, and I get a big grin, and I go "Ketosis! Yippee!" And the ketostix always confirm it. Fortunately for me, I don't get the so-called keto flu. I just go straight from carb burner to the feel-good fat burner that most people get after they've gone through the keto flu part. My triglycerides are normal, my a1c is normal now, now I just need to get a little more weight off my joints and feet, and I'll be good. So glad I didn't listen to the naysayers. Whenever I hear their nonsense I just ask them, "So it would be healthier for me to go around 50 lb overweight? Okay then! Put a lid on it!"☺️
We’re in our 80s three years keto and feeling fine. Sore knees and hips are a thing of the past. Normal BP and blood sugars, and feeling mentally sharp.
I play ice hockey for Indonesia, 35 years old, we were on lockdown for almost 2 years and all trainings went down the drain, gained alot of weight really fast and random diseases started occuring, it was brutal.
A young, open-minded nutritionist swore on keto so I tried it last year despite all the misinformation back then (it is worse in 3rd world countries believe me). Anyway, in less then a year my weight went down to normal, now at 13% BF, in a few months all diseases went away, no cholesterol, no high blood pressure, clear mind, etc. I even outperform half of the U21 squad in terms of energy, power, sometimes speed.
It is mindblowing to say the least, it's like getting a hard reset for your body. Now that I think about it, it makes sense after 35 years of eating too much carbs and sugar especially here where white rice is a staple for breakfast, lunch and dinner + sugars in 90% of all our sauces.
My wife followed suit 3 months ago and never looked back, her skin looks better, her hair loss stopped, her cholesterol and BP were great. And I learned from my keto journey that articles criticizing keto are most likely paid by the food industry or connected to it, also willing to bet that they've probably never tried keto.
Remember to people doubting keto: all of your knowledge about fat, trans fat, cholesterol are fabricated, it was made back in the 70s-90s by the food industry. And to those who "tried" keto and didn't work, then you simply did it wrong because keto is very straightforward: no sugar, no carbs period so that includes sauces, fruits, etc
Food pyramid is a scam. They used to say carbs should be eaten the most.. now it's the least. I never listen to any govt or corporate sponsored studies anymore. They all come with an agenda. Thank God for RUclips so we can find people like this guy.
As soon as biases are explicitly pronounced it's safe to state that it falls in the non-science bucket.
Good review Bret, thanks a lot!
I laughed out loud at the 'vegtable' comment, in my head I was thinking "but I've never eaten more vegtables in my life than I do now I'm on Keto", and then you said it!
I believe this is pretty key in why there is often confusion in many news report on the ketogenic diet and even in referenced studies where details of the 'type' of ketogenic diet used isn't given, or is ignored, and it's often not the version most of us are using - that isn't to say that more strict ketogenic diets don't also have their own place in certain circumstances e.g. epilepsy, some specific cancers etc.
You are very polite in your analysis.
My heart goes out to you Dr. Bret. What a waste of your time to have deal with this garbage. Excellent job as always. I will save this one to send out when I folks tell me about this study and how "dangerous" my diet is. In the meantime, I'll continue to have job security grossing in specimens from the diet/lifestyle induced diseases.
Low carb living has been the easiest lifestyle change for me, ever! Love it!!
Look. If anyone thinks that I have shrunk my thyroid nodules, avoided breast cancer recurrance, lowered my waist circumference, lost skin tags, thrown out my asthma inhalers, improved my HDL/Triglycerides ratio and started running at age 59 with no joint pain was because I lost 65 lbs, they should wonder why I could NEVER get to this weight on SAD or low fat diet. Pass the meat please!
Amen 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Eat 🍖🥓🥩🍖 if God did not want us to eat meat, He would not have created it... Amen 🙏🏻
pass the 🍖🥓🥩🍖 meat please.
Awesome you have done so well. I'm 57 been living this lifestyle for 2 years & like you love it!
Typical answer from the anti-keto 'researchers'?: "Sorry. Your anecdotal personal experience means nothing if it is not measured in a lab and published in an article. Now let's look at a 2 week epidemiological study that PROVES the ketogenic diet is bad for you..."
How long did it take for you to accomplish this?
@@seriouslypagan6904 65 lb lost was probably 4month give or take. On keto u should lose at least 1/2lb. a day at the worst.
So lucky to have a credible RUclips resource to explain how studies are manipulated for the bias of the authors. Thank you Diet Doctor.
The bottom line for me, even if they are right, which they aren't: Keto has added at least a decade to my life; gone is my high blood pressure, CKD (stage 3) - gone, gout -gone, pre-diabetes - gone, triglycerides -down from 276 to 77, HDL up from 21 to 40, chronic pain -gone. My N1 says to stay on Keto!! And I lost 120 pounds and am not hungry all the time.
Another horror story.
Wow. sounds like a ketogenic nightmare! Congrats on recovering your health!
4 years compliance. All health markers greatly improved. These studies are all smoke and mirrors.
Good comment. Nothing succeeds like success!!
I have PCOS and was obese so my doc advised me to lose weight. Told me if I didnt, she was gonna put me on maintenance meds, and I'm just on my early 30s. Of course I didn't go back for follow up check-up until I lost significant weight. I tried to lose weight but in 5 months, I barely scratched 2 kg. So I did keto and lost 7kg in just 2 months. My cycle became shorter and back to normal, I wasnt sick as often as before, and my skin got clearer. So I went back to my doc, happy about my results, and told her I'm doing Keto. She frowned, said Keto's gonna kill me, look at my LDL levels, it's off the charts. She tried so hard to convince me to switch from Keto to Vegan, said se and her husband are vegan and it's doing wonders for them, but told her, "nah, doc. Only Keto works for me, I'm sticking to it. If I do vegan, for sure I wont last more than 3 weeks and will just gain more weight". I even had to strike a bargain with her, told her anyway, I'd come back after a month, I'd alter some of my eating habits, coz I was surely eating too much saturated fats (hello daily BFC), and test my LDL again. Havent had the chance to get tested again yet, but i'm pretty confident my LDLs normal now. Cant wait to prove my doc wrong about keto.
Keto saved my life. I had NAFLD with NASH and f3-f4 fibrosis and completely reversed it with a keto diet. Dropped 70 pounds, got rid of all my visceral fat and am living a full, healthy vigorous life at 73. Be the miracle your doctor can't explain.
Congratulations!! Amazing job!
@@cassandrasmom Restored health is the reward.
Oh, how please let me know, Sir, iam I the same boat. What exactly do you eat?
Keto has done wonders for my husband and I.
He lost 35 pounds, I lost 20. I had a ton of energy to exercise. I was hiking 20 miles a week and swimming with my nephew out in the beautiful sunshine. I had no more painful joints no migraine headaches for years, I rarely had a seizure, having epilepsy has been hell for me. I have two chronic sleep disorders and keto greatly improved my sleep quality.
#KetoMafia 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
My kidney function has greatly improved on a keto diet, and I haven't had any kidney stones in almost 2 years, as I limit my oxalates. I got kidney stones when I was on more of a vegan diet, besides developing digestive problems, which is now completely gone on keto.
Same here. I was in the military and thought spinach was good for me. I was getting stones about ever 5 year since 2000. I started keto, then more carnivore since 2019. I started I had a 4mm stone... its still there but hasn't grown in the last 2 years.
@@artemishunter8993 Yeah, I'm almost entirely carnivore, but I will eat a small amount of vegetables, but not regularly. I also have a few berries in season, but otherwise I'm all Carnivore. People have been brainwashed to beleive that fruits and veggies are good for you, most are not. I am constantly trying to tweek my diet, to source better quality foods. I think that does matter how the animal was raised. Cheers to our good health.
@@o_o825 have you seen Amber O'Hearn video called Lipivore? It's pretty logical.
I stopped getting kidney stones when I stopped drinking mineral water and started drinking reverse-osmosis water.
Wow, I am sooooo good. As soon as I saw the title, I said ‘Dr. Barnard?’
Nailed it. That doctor is a one-man Harvard Chan School of Something-or-Other. If I were as profoundly ignorant of evolutionary biology and anthropology as Barnard, I would hide my head in shame.
Every time Barnard brings up Vit C and meat, he will say there is zero Vit C in meat. Every time. He's either lying or criminally ignorant (hey, doesn't he read MY comments! ;-). When I bring this up, the vegan response is either there is none (wrong) or there's so little it doesn't matter (wrong).
OTOH, it's interesting to look at his face and skull structure, unobscured by muscle or fat....
My n=1 study found that a very low carb diet can get a T2 diabetic to an a1c of 5.2 without meds. Don’t really need any other studies LOL...
Amen to that! I am on a keto diet for just a few months and HbA1C down to 6.4 Triglycerides from >400 to 179. All meds for diabetes stopped and 23 # wt loss. BP controlled on 2.5 mg Lisinopril and looking forward to eventually going off of that as well. All of this i credit to the keto diet. And I also note more mental acuity and energy! With my strong family history of diabetes I am staying with this diet long term. But I do miss bread! :)
@@terry2346 great results! Keto (or even very low carb which at about 45g net carbs is really what I am doing) is really powerful. The funny thing is that after 2 years of eating this way I don’t actually miss bread and potatoes anymore; I’m so used to all the yummy food I’m eating now. All the best to you so that you continue with your new lifestyle.
@@terry2346I know right
Uggh bread is awesome but worth cutting out if it’s working well for your health concerns.
@@MsTony1402 when I do eat potatoes, it’s few and far between, but I don’t eat the starchy ones. I’ll eat red potatoes, Dutch gold potatoes, and some other low glycemic index taters.
Nice and creamy, especially mashed with delicious grass fed butter and some milk. You should try those potatoes out and see how you like them. 😉
Yeah, keto is so bad that I lost 85 lbs. And my blood sugar is now perfect! My hypertention is now controlled. Wow been on it one year and will continue as long as i live!!! SO THERE!
I saw this headline a few days ago, and there were a lot of misleading statements in the articles:
First, most of the articles I read on this take didn't even link the study at the end; they just paraphrased a lot of the content and had other doctors essentially agree with it.
Second, they rehash the same claims that have been debunked by other studies concerning diabetes, calories, and cholesterol (ie, they say that keto is dangerous because it's a diet that raises LDL (bad) cholesterol, but as we've seen, LDL cholesterol doesn't have much practical bearing on cardiovascular health).
Third, the statements made unrelated to the study are, frankly, opinionated and don't represent actual data from the study.
This whole headline reeked of conflict of interest before I even got to the opening statement.
I wouldn't even bother giving something like this oxygen. As soon as I saw the names on the "study" it was time to move on.
🤜🏽🤛🏽
Well he has to do this work because most people don’t understand these corruptions in science.
This is really an excellent review. Although it wasn’t necessary for me to be “Keto-comfortable,” it will help me explain to my non-Keto friends why and how so many of these news stories are misleading. Thank you for your excellent work!
@ David Garth I have been on a keto diet for 19 months, lost 73 pounds, and reversed all my health problems related to metabolic syndrome, but when I try to explain the benefits to others, even though they can see the change in me, they always refute my claims, by saying, " You are not a doctor." I have helped 2 overweight people with type 2, and one with Crohn's disease, but many people either don't care, or give me the " you aren't a doctor" argument. It is really frustrating, as I can't even get my own family to listen. I got a brother dying from Parkinson's and he still insists on eating a SAD diet.
@@sidsnyder8043 I hear you. I have given up trying to convince others to at least investigate human nutrition. Most people I know are metabolically sick on their diets, including the vegans.
@@rfbead321 Fat people here that I know hate me, it's crazy. The sicker and fatter they are, the more they hate me. I had one guy tell me, " I don't care if you care." just because I asked about him to one of his friends. Funny, because I am not judging anyone, I used to be like them. I just let them listen to their doctors, until they either see the light, or suffer a slow death.
@Jenny Eklöv Yeah, keep it up Jenny, sounds like you're doing great. It seems the less I listen to my doctor, the healthier I get. We are the same age, and he is the one who is sick and fat, not me. I have bought him several great books to read, but I doubt he read them. Most of these doctors are afriad to step out of the box of treating patients with only medications.
@@o_o825 I don't eat bread, so I don't have to worry about that. Of course if you return to a Standard American Diet, you will get sick again. When you are insulin resistent, anything that turns to glucose in your body, is a poison. I don't consider my way of eating as a " diet," I consider it a new way of viewing health and nutrition. If you don't have a metabolic problem, you can get away with eating carbs. But, what you are saying is like a smoker saying, I have been smoking 2 packs of cigarettes a day for years, without any issues. It is a slow accumulative effect.
Cherry-picking? Very appropriate for the vegan mafia.
Vegan mafia 🤣🤣🤣🤣 that’s awesome.
Been doing keto 4 years now with IF and I will never stop. Got off all 17 Rx and NO HELP from my doctors. Sick of the blatant disinformation of the allopathic medical community who by their attitude care for their bottom line -not patient welfare.
You describe that which I also observe. It has been making me wonder if doctors receive royalties for the prescriptions they write.
@@tmcche7881 check out on internet “dollars for docs” it might be only USA doctors
@@tmcche7881 If you spend time in a waiting room, you'll see the pharma hockster come in dressed sharply to peddle their wares. Don't think for a second they don't do everything they can to make dough without a whole lotta regard for anyone's health. People who are healthy don't need drugs anyway, you know?
It's all it is and people are waking up to the powers that be and their blatant lies! They need arrested for crimes against humanity!
That’s awesome; congratulations on dropping the pills. I hate pills which, unfortunately I have to take because of a neurological condition. fasting worked wonderfully. It’s tough at times that’s for sure but I definitely felt so much better and no migraines for years with a lot of water as well.
KETO works, my only concern is the amount of nuts, almond and dark chocolate that easily be over eaten in keto. Nearly all the main ingredient are from almond flour nuts, almond milk, and dark chocolate which is extremely high in oxalates which in the long run will bring more damage or inflammation. Keto with the combination of low oxalates vegetables or foods is actually very beneficial.
Couldn't agree more! Keto without nuts, spinach, or dark chocolate works for me. Just do a little research into oxalates and avoid the main offenders.
Nuts, dark chocolate and almond flour are not an absolute must in a healthy keto diet. Every once in awhile is the way to go. Key word here is "Healthy" keto diet...
@@mikevoisine2886 hi thats your views and probably for some doing healthy Keto. But majority of people doing keto are always on nuts, almonds (from milk to bread) and dark chocolate,just perfect example keto recipes most of it has almond flour and dark chocolate it can easily be eaten overly and in large quantities. It should be highlighted that this foods are extremely high in oxalates. I have a business doing keto treats but after finding out about oxalates I have to abandoned it as for me morally not right.
@@lalad.6428 Ok. I'm on a keto/low carb diet, have been for three years now and hardly ever eat "keto" treats. I have nuts and dark chocolate once or twice a week, not more.
@@mikevoisine2886 good on you. I'm sure you have checked about oxalates. Good read or to check Susan Owens, Sally k Norton or Elliot Overton. Best of luck.
Standard American Diet: Meat, lots of carbs, lots of sugar, processed food, vegetables, grains, fruit (No problems in the medical field with this way of eating)
Keto Diet: Meat, minimal carbs, no sugar, no processed foods, vegetables, seeds, some fruit.(Somehow THIS is 'disease promoting'??
Two reasons why people hate on the keto diet: 1. They are vegan or 2. They are hung up on the fact that keto is 'high fat' and therefore according to those that are still stuck in the nutritional advice of the 1970s and 1980s, 'fat is bad for you'.
That's very instructive on how fake science is done!
Every medical studen should see this!
Thanks!
I went form veggies and meat to almost completely meat. A few nuts, cheese and heavy cream, grass fed butter for my coffee. I feel great.
Thank you for this. As a lay person I did find this article distressing. I have a heart condition, high blood pressure and I'm pre-diabetic. Since I've been on keto I feel better than I felt in a long time... Even my mental health was improved. You have set my mind at ease.
Good video, Doc!
Personally, a low carb lifestyle has been a life changer! I don't like putting all low carb lifestyles into a specific diet name, but if I had to define mine, it would be animal based "diet". I rarely eat any veggies. Some people may say this is bad, but my body and health was failing fast just a few years ago. Thriving on my high fat, high protein, low carb lifestyle.
I appreciate your videos and content!
Amen to this
@@o_o825 LOL, whatever. More veggies for you!
I don't need your smarta** comments.
When it works, it works. There is no ideal human diet. Can be proteins for some, low carb for others, veg for some. Health is measurable in any case. Glad you found what works for you.
@@karend.9218 Agreed. Thank you
What it actually risks is profit margins of junk food companies, big pharma, and medical communities.
I believe that a person needs to do the research and look deeper rather than running scared because of a headline. Thank you Doctor Bret. You are one of my favorite Doctors, that I share to my Keto group.
This is very true. However, it seems the average person does not know how to look at the validity of the material being read nor of the sources being cited. Most college students and graduates do, as we are taught how to do this in college. However, high school classes do not teach this sort of advanced critical thinking let alone how to evaluate source material for factualness.
I think most people on Keto will. It's all the (jealous) people who want to derail your progress who will smugly throw these headlines around.
This would be much easier if research was reliable. No matter where you look for research, it is unreliable because everything is biased and everyone has an agenda. "They" want to keep is unhealthy; there is more money in that.
Exactly 💯% nailed it!
Those FEAR MONGERS want to throw their proverbial "monkey wrenches" at people.
People need to trust in the Lord always and pray over their fears.
@@tonyawalters6606 Not all research is biased, but yes, much is. This is why when someone is doing their own research, they have to always take into account who conducted and sponsored the research pertaining to the report or article being read. As in this case, the report was sponsored by a group that had an obvious agenda and a bias against what they were reporting on.
Then, one must look at what methodology (or methodologies if more than one was used was used.) Again, this shows factors such as whether the people writing the report conducted their own experiments, and if so, exactly how these were conducted. If they are compiling a metanalysis of data, then the individual studies being used need to be examined. All of these practices can help someone determine whether the data being used to show evidence is being deliberately picked to be misleading. Again, this was demonstrated in this video.
Finally, one should always look into the sources provided to provide evidence of the statements being made- exactly as was done in this video. If no source is provided, automatically discard that information as it cannot be verified. Then, look into the sources that are provided, If it is not relevant, or if the material is misleading, again, discard that information, as it is unreliable.
Continuing, I must admit the last part of my statement is somewhat redundant as it was partially stated above. Still, it bears repeating as this is how someone can see through a lot of bias in reports they are reading, and find the actual facts.
Thank you for exposing the liars.
I've been keto five and a half years and still enjoy it. I eat twice a day, some animal protein and vegetables. Works for me.
Same! How can a way of eating that makes you feel so good AND makes most “sickness” go away be bad?? They want us fat & sick.
My kidneys were just tested in May and are doing fine, thank you! Keto for over 18 months now!
Thank you for the science-based rebuttal.
All I needed to see the was co-author Neal Barnard....then I immediately threw it into the dumpster.
Just one question: where have the grands for such "studies" come from, whose pocket are the" scientists" sitting in?🤔
What I love about Keto, is that skin tags of all kind simply disappear or shrink to nothing. If that affect is visible on the outside, what positive effects are happening inside your body.
Scare away the masses. More keto food for us. Lol.
Part of the reason that many promoters of "the" ketogenic diet are vulnerable to straw-man criticisms like the ones in this article is their crude categorization of very disparate foods into "carbs" and "fats" as well as their failure to acknowledge that intermittent fasting itself is a type of ketogenic diet.
Agreed.
"quote unquote studies"..."quote unquote researchers"...YES!...EXACTLY!...who the heck ARE these people??...and what are their CREDENTIALS??
Trust your organization completely for your honest rebuttals to these types of articles. and personally the ketogenic diet is SO SUSTAINABLE… over a year now for me (I’m 68 yo) and have lost all weight I needed to (62 lbs in ~5 months) and am maintaining.. I eat a lot and I’ve been motivated to be adventuresome in the kitchen… sooo much good stuff … and I’ve never felt better in my entire adult life. 👍🏻❤️
My Dad was a kidney patient and I now realise that the nutritional information he was given was feeding his condition. It’s one of my biggest regrets that I didn’t discover Keto while he was alive. We could have reversed his type 2 diabetes, kidney problems, insulin resistance, heart problems and eye problems.
I think there might be problems for people with bad gallbladders, but I think that can be mitigated. I don’t see how keto can be a cancer risk, but everything is called a cancer risk these days
The mainstream resistance to low carb is actually shameful. There are powerful lobbies against a perfectly natural way of eating. So It's up to YOU as an individual to do your own research and find resources such as DD, which is a great guide you can trust. But truly, once you go keto and lose like 60 pounds of FAT in one year, and feel fantastic (as I did) you know you can trust your body.
After doing Keto and learning for about a year. I realized that there's just so much misinformation out there and marketing and lobbying in food, medical, science industries.
There's just so much unhealthy food in the market right now. As a consumer and a human being, i realized that I cannot just "eat healthily" without learning the right nutritional and health/medical knowledge. Similarly in the current era, you can't say you don't know how to use a computer like back in the 1990s. The minimum requirements for the knowledge is getting higher and higher.
If you snooze, you lose. In this case, your health. Good Luck everybody. *I'm not against Vegans, but the group of vegan advocate that smear and twist facts just to influence to their benefits, shame on them.
The vegetarian/vegan machine is one of the most blatantly dishonest movements around.
Oh so true! Especially the vegan doctors.
You can still be vegetarian and even vegan whilst following a low carb lifestyle (although it can be challenging). The problem here is that there are some scientists who act in a disingenuous fashion to line their own pockets or push a personal agenda. This sort of behavior happens in various situations. On the opposite end of the spectrum I've also seen some strange cultish comments and plain hateful comments from carnivore dieters about people who dare to eat some veggies. Extremism happens on both sides which is something you have to be on the lookout for.
Really appreciate the excellent analysis, Bret! The “peer reviewers” should bookmark it for future reference, but, then, I’m not really sure objectivity has had much to do with mainstream nutritional research for awhile. Bravo to you. Thanks.
the only reason I Can't do Keto is because I'm Hypoglycemic (Non diabetic) and everytime i've attempted it, i'd get a large range of long lasting symptoms (vertigo, dizziness, fatigue, shaking)
Paleo or Atkins works
Can I share something Dale? My husband and I both were chronically hypoglycemic and had attacks all the time. It took a few weeks for our blood sugar attacks to go away while doing keto.
I would encourage you to try it and see how you feel. I know how frustrating it is and can be debilitating at times we are not diabetic. We are just the rare cases of hypoglycemia without being diabetic.
I actually watch videos from Diet Dr. and Plant Based news; it’s very stark to see the difference in arguments. Plant based almost always cherry picks but all the low carb scientists are taking the time to explain things.
Kind of like main stream news and conservative news! Lol sorry i know this isn't about politics but i couldn't resist the comparison. You put it so well, one Cherry picks and one dives in.
@@dthain no apology necessary. I follow politics as well and have learned how to weed out the bs.
Yup. I noticed that watching his content
"Maybe if the keto diet is working you don't stop! Just a thought. " Love it!!
14:30 What study states that keto causes insulin resistance? Lowering your insulin levels promotes insulin sensitivity, not resistance. What you said sounds back-to-front
I'm vegan keto and eat vegetables!
You should be putting out videos because there are many vegans I know that are struggling with their weight that would like to try the ketogenic diet but don't know how to go about it. Many could learn from your experience,
@@guibox3 omg really!? this means a lot! I will definitely consider this. I am absolutely feeling incredible on vegan keto with IF
I sure hope there's plenty of coconut oil in your food. It'll look after your brain. Remember your brain is two thirds fat.
@@toni4729 coconut oil, olive oil, walnut oil, avocado:))
@@acidclarity_ I specifically specified coconut oil because it's 95% saturated fat.😅
Nice review. I switched to only beef and eggs and buy nothing with ingredients. I do consider fermenting vegetables and eating them while fasting for 7+ days, but I will never go back to cooking them with my meals and mixing them with meat. Beef + eggs + salt + (sometimes raw unpasturized butter) + water is perfect. Let the body do it's normal feed/famine cycle so that you can build a strong ketosis and nourish your brain, bones, and other organs. Get some sun, get some resistance training in, and remember to breathe slowly, especially when you are feeling stressed. Not keto, but it works nicely for me and fixed all the problems I was having eating plates full of broccoli an kale and rice and quinoi before...
The headline is almost always different than the content in the article. Or, such bias that it's ridiculous! Thank you for keeping it real 😍
I wondered how long it would take DD to respond to the anti keto 'research' that has just been publicised by the media
I saw the one a few days ago and thought that was the response, now I'm happy to see them addressing that study directly. I had detected some bias but needed someone with more experience to explain it some more.
It got quoted in the Daily Express, they claimed keto can cause diabetes... wait, what ?
HA HAHAHAHA!!!! Maybe it does on every other "anything can happen Wednesday" in the Twilight zone.
@@crazilyon Wow, love it. Vegans can get anything on that bloody diet of theirs. Ha.
Well joe stoat, if you are starting to read such rubbish press as the Daily Express you are on a very dangerous slope.
@@franciscouderq1100 When the nights turn cold, I'm just grateful to find something to wrap myself in.
😍 LOVE this! A full hands-on tutorial on how to detect bias in science. 👏
I would like to add that also fasting induces ketosis and temporary "insulin resistance" (IR). This is a physiological process as the body becomes better at burning fat than glucose in a low-insulin environment. For this reason, people who practice intermittent fasting should avoid breaking a fast with a high-carb meal (unless this is after a high-intensity fasted exercise thanks to the benefits of NIMGU). This is the only potential concern I have around the transient IR, but as Bret mentioned that's not a problem in the context of a keto diet when insulin spikes are avoided
As soon as you see Barnyard's name up there you know it's just lies. And now we know all those other names who happily go along with him.
This study is obviously a display of ignorance or willful promotion of unhealthy living. Advise like this is responsible for the massive amount of metabolic syndrome in society. Low carb keto with a moderate amount of protein is the safest diet you can do. I would stress the low carb part of keto rather than just plain keto. And eating so many veggies how can you be low in vitamins?
I am 67 years old, recently began a low-carb diet, and this study scared me…thank you for this analysis!!
I'm nearly seventy, been keto for twenty six years. Nothing to worry about.
NAFLD
true story
I worked for a year with a family member using low carb
It was completely reversed.
No, I am not a Dr
I helped her follow the diet, answered her questions about the situation and the diet, her Dr handled the entire spectrum of the medial aspects.
Is eating donuts, bread and candy less dangerous than eating meat and vegetables and eliminating sugar from your diet? Here I come Krispy Kreme.
Isn't it sad that they feel so threatened that they have to turn out such transparent, unprofessional rubbish🙄
The sad thing is that the health professionals and scientists who put this review together are not very professional and scientific, most of the people who watch Bretts videos are already converts,so we must all do our little bit and try and spread the truth about nutrition. Well done Diet Doctor for making these videos and increasing the awareness to the lies and disinformation about ketogenic diets
Thank you. Thank you for a clear and concise response to those articles. I had 3 people reference those to me within 12 hours of the articles coming out about why I shouldn't be following a low carb lifestyle....I'm not completely keto (a few different fruits and tart cherry concentrate), but my macros fall within the keto guidelines most of the time. Having faced breast cancer two times in recent years, I took a hard look at my diet. The meds I'm currently on, and will not stop taking, cause joint pain, GI issues and a host of other side effects. After switching to this type of diet, I have little to no joint pain, the GI issues that are typical of my medication are almost nonexistent for me, I sleep well, I'm losing extra pounds that I've struggled to lose since these meds.... I eat cleaner, healthier foods with this lifestyle than any other "diet" I've followed before. I can't believe the people who knock it without researching it, or trying it. Your podcast has been one of my go to resources through this. I can't say thank you enough!!!
Whatever this man saying is just 50% truth! What I mean by that?
There is more unique people in this World then ANY SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH can cover! We need to RESEARCH by ourselves and find out what is best for us, for our body, not just blindly beleive "what science say".
In this time, WE NEED TO BE OUR OWN DOCTORS!
I noticed over the years that what is good is usually bad….what a life !
Humans are not that unique that you can ignore legitimate, Peer reviewed scientific studies. By all means, learn to advocate for yourself but don't think you as a lay person know more than a medical doctor. And btw, there are many medical professionals who ARE low carb or at least don't disparage the idea right off the bat.
Oh boy… It’s sad that you have to waste your time dismantling another nonsense study. But thank you 🙏🏻 ☺️
I lost 45 lbs and reversed my type 2 diabetes. I started dirty keto then cleaned it up eating leaner meats and many leafy greens and other vegetables as well as eggs and avocado. I have never felt better 😀
WOW 😮! Best talk you have given for awhile but I still shoot for zero carbs as much as I can and stay animal based as much as possible.
This was an extremely helpful analysis of a study. Thank you for your clear explanation of why this study is so unreliable. The public needs more doctors to do what you have just done--interpreting scientific data so we can make more effective health choices. Thank you again!
Its a sad state of affairs these days within the media companies. They always over sensationalize articles and stories to the point that you just don't know who to trust. We need studies and trials performed by people with no bias whatsoever.....that might be too much to ask but I have to wonder....do people who write these articles actually track down and interview people who have been successful on Keto or do they not bother?
The unfortunate truth is that the corporate media does not care about the human condition, where the highly paid "journalists" blindly follow the establishment narrative of seeking the low-hanging fruit of emotive response. Very sad.
Thanks for this review. Low carb is not difficult to sustain. 🤷♀️ 2.5 years and counting.
Thank you, Dr. Scher, for your EXCELLENT content and presentation of information. It is always timely and relevant.
Thank you for the review. Really helpful for those who might be concerned about going eating to be in ketosis. Personally I'll never stop eating keto and IF.
I'm 153lbs. and used to be 236lbs. 5 years ago and kept it off. I did Keto on my own and it was hard the 1st few months, then it was easier and easier. Now I do Keto sometimes. I intermittent fast and exercise. I eat low carbs mostly, but healthy meat. Grass fed meat, eggs, Grass fed dairy, Avocado every day, broccoli and Bone broth...ect. This study wants people to stay fat and feel shitty.
As soon as I saw it was funded by and two authors were employees of PCRM, one of whom is also associated with AND, I tuned out.
There's absolutely no use wasting time in reading articles when bias is so overt because no credible claim can be presented.
Thank you for a very comprehensive breakdown of this review.
I've never eaten as many vegetables as I do on Keto.
I can forward this video to all the people who throw the headlines in my face.
Meanwhile the AMA and ADA maintain that "appropriately planned vegetarian diets, including total vegetarian or vegan diets, are healthful, nutritionally adequate, and may provide health benefits in the prevention and treatment of certain diseases". 🤡🙄
Most vegetarians and vegans require multivitamins to stay healthy. They don't really mention that part. You can be keto and vegan, there are people who do it. But it takes a lot of hard work that I'm sure most people can't/don't want to handle.
I may be mistaken but I think the majority of the people attacking keto and carnivore and animal based diets in general are probably a;; or nearly all members of or closely connected to the Seventh day Adventists church and businesses and dietary schools.
And What religion was Ansel Keys ?
These guys are clearly vegans and the keto way of life only shuts out junk food anyway so it's not hard to stick by unlike the vegan diet which is impossible and unsafe.
If the keto way of life were unsafe I'd have killed myself more than 26 years ago🤣😍
Thank you so much for this! I find it very inspiring, plus it's helpful too when little niggling doubts start creeping in from all the propaganda we get like what you're exposing here.
When you have upset Dr Bret Scher, you know you done something wrong.
These vegans lie like crazy..... how can i trust them anymore since i do at times listen to them just to get other prospective...
"That doesn't mean we can discount it right off the bat." Yes it does.
Thank you for addressing this. I saw the article and was so upset because they said nothing conclusive, just a bag of mumbo jumbo to scare people. And what was worse, it was written so we could not comment.
*As someone who has successfully followed a keto diet for years, I believe it can be safe and effective when done correctly.*
I am interested in keto. I think there is some truth to the danger of it though simply because a lot of people hear about keto online and then try what they THINK is keto and not what keto actually is and then they just go hog wild on meat and butter and actually do harm themselves. More people need to be educated on what it actually is and freaking eat their veggies on keto
I notice a trend of carnivore diets taking centre stage in the ketogenic world and sort of shouting down the original idea of low carb in general (including non starchy veg). I think it's too extreme.
Wow! This is such an amazing video! Thank you Dr Diet. It’s so frustrating when these reviews give us false information, but you explain it so well and in such a fair manner. It helps people like me who have to justify all the time to misinformed friends and family why I choose to live a Keto lifestyle. 🙏🤗🌈💕
After being on keto for 2 years and going and getting a full body warrant of fitness health check. All my results including good and bad cholesterol were spot on.
Thanks for making this video and explaining the “review” so quickly, you did an excellent job , just like you always do.
Great explanation. Thank you so much for this .
A new article from "Shut up and eat your carbs" magazine
Thank you for taking all this time to explain, great stuff, I often wonder if the food pyramid and sugar was part of a depopulation plan
Liked and sub'd. Keto and fasting works wonders for my mind and body :)
It's dangerous to pharmaceutical company profits!
I’m grateful for this podcast, the best channel.
Thank you.
this is an amazing critique. every sentence of the review is problematic, and as soon as he starts pulling at the threads the entire thing falls apart. without this detailed lens as a tool, the review seems plausible. Thanks for your insights! i'm always amazed that these things get published in peer reviewed journals. He should consider submitting this video (or a summary of the key points) to the journal and get this review retracted or at least have an extensive supplemental article that acknowledges these killer points he's bringing up.
The Ketogenic diet is the best thing in the History of Nutrition.
Hahahaha, I don't care about what research propaganda claims.
Keto for 2 years but I still had health issues. Started Carnivore including organ meats and raw whole milk. No more lectin rich nuts, etc. I am seeing my health issues melt away. I am one of those people who cannot tolerate Carbs. including the carb. vegies.
Excellent review, thank you so much!
Dr. Bret, I wonder if you consider writing the publication of the study you reviewed and contributing pointers to your video or including a summary. As you know, we are in a crisis with "Science" which wants to paint itself as a trusted authority when, in fact, most of what they state is mere supposition. And, as you point out, likely not just wrong but intentionally corrupt. I'm concerned for the truth in our modern world as some have seen opportunity to "take over" the truth business and paint everyone who doesn't agree with these truthsayers as heretics (or worse). I applaud you making this stern video (as I've been critical in past with some which have been milk-toast). Thanks for your work! Best regards, Mike
