Overeating Doesn't Cause Obesity? | Educational Video | Biolayne | Layne Norton

  • Nutrition headlines were recently shaken up with a paper authored by several noted Low Carb Proponants (David Ludwig, Gary Taubes, etc) was published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition (Link: academic.oup.com/ajcn/advance... )
    This paper was a narrative review (ie opinion piece) regarding the Carb-Insulin Model (CIM) of obesity and it's many criticisms. While this opinion piece received a lot of press, it STILL did not address the core criticisms of the CIM, nor does it change the overwhelming evidence against the CIM.
    Briefly: The CIM argues that overeating is NOT what makes people fat. Rather that high glycemic carbohydrate consumption, leading to elevated insulin levels, traps fat in adipose tissue. This trapping of fat causes fuel to be less available to the rest of the body, and people overeat in response. In other words, we don't get fat because we overeat, we overeat because we get fat.
    Intriguing theory (read: CONVOLUTED) but it is NOT supported by a plethora of data.
    In this video I directly address Ludwig & colleagues claims regarding energy balance and their claims regarding the CIM
    Fat loss is not different between low carb or low fat diets during controlled feeding studies when calories/protein are matched: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28193...
    Protein and carbohydrate have a greater thermic effect of food than fat: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31021...
    Inadequate caloric intake causes stunted growth in children: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22025...
    Dietary carb & sugar intake has DECREASED over the last 2 decades while obesity has continued to rise:
    pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25623...
    www.ers.usda.gov/data-product...
    pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23676...
    www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/arti...
    Dietary Fats are the biggest contributor to increased caloric intake over the last 50 years: www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank...
    Our caloric intake has increased by ~25% over the last half century and oil intake alone accounts for over half of the increased calorie intake
    www.businessinsider.com/ameri...
    Differences in glycemic load do NOT affect weight loss/gain when calories are equated: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29466...
    pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/15277...
    pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/9094871/

    pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/9094871/
    pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22866...
    Sugar does NOT cause fat gain unless also accompanied by an increase in calories:
    pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23321...
    Low Carb Diets do not cause more weight loss than low fat diets when calories and protein are equated:
    pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/16685...
    www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/arti...
    pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/27385...
    pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25007...
    pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26768...
    Insulin levels do not appear to predict future weight gain: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/17130...
    Insulin secretion explains between 1-10% of future weight gain (though this has not been supported by other mendelian randomization studies):
    pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29295... (1-10%)
    pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/24947... (no effect)
    My previous video critiquing Ludwig's meta-analysis claiming low carb diets increase energy expenditure: • New Study "Proves" Low...
    The Doubly Labeled Water method overestimates energy expenditure for low carb diets: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31028...
    pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31815...
    Other critiques of of the CIM
    Inhibiting fatty acid release from fat cells does NOT impede weight loss:
    pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26691...
    Semaglutide increases postprandial insulin secretion by 2-3 fold but DECREASES fat mass:
    pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28526...
    pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29766...
    Overfeeding carbohydrate or fats are both equally fattening in humans:
    pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/7598063/
    pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11029...
    A diet of primarily rice, sugar, and fruit juice was able to cause over 100 lbs of weight loss in obese type 2 diabetics in a calorie deficit: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/1200726/

    @3:13 - "as if we don't have hundreds of controlled trials"
    Layne reminded me of the time Taubes and Attia went through 13 (or was it 17?) met ward studies and found reason to reject every one.
    When Hall's study (which addressed many of their "genuinely[1] held concerns"), proved Taubes wrong as usual of course Taubes moved the goal posts.

    You posted on IG a while back about how you are not sure how you make a difference, this is how you make a difference. As a previous follower of Taubes and Ludwig and Fung and them all, including reading many of their books. When I stumbled across you and started watching your content, it helped me go with what my gut was telling me. I'm someone who loves oatmeal and sweet potatoes and just like the guy you referenced I believed that it was my insulin and carbs that made me fat and yet I kept gaining weight eating only 25g of total carbs a day. So thank you. And it is amazing how when I buy into an idea how delusional and prejudiced I become.

      Same. Fung, Taubes, Jimmy Moore, Ludwig… followed them all. Got nowhere and made myself terrified of carbs. All carbs. Literally figured I would get fat eating things like carrots, tomatoes and apples.
      I sat spinning my wheels and carrying a lot of excess body fat for a few years while I beat my head against the wall and kept on following these guys.
      Started including more carbohydrates and more protein in my diet and…magic.
      The fat started coming off and the muscles started developing well, even on a 54 year old woman. I was able to clear the size 14s and 16s out of my closet, and two weeks ago bought a size 2 dress.
      I am healthy and happy with lots of energy!!

      Its alot easier the moment you prepare your own food. Use low calorie ingredients that you enjoy eating and you can eat alot without exceeding your calories. I achieve my leanest bodyfat eating intuitively. I do not stick to a fix number of meals. I eat whenever i am hungry and have cravings. However, i ensure its low in calories, high fibre and protein. Some days, i am having 8 meals including my protein coffee, my vanilla diet coke using unsweetened whey. I ate my own low calorie pizzas, french toasts, wraps and soft served ice cream. I still eat with my family but taking smaller portions of regular food and supplementing with lots of vegetables and fruits. Downside of high fibre diet, you poop a lot more.

    I did low carb for about 3 years and it helped. I did however realized that the main reason why it did was because of an overall reduction of calories not so much because of the low carb itself. Now I am, based on what I have learned and personal experience, being more conscious on food quantities and of course quality as well as my level of activity on a particular day.

Studies have shown proximity of food vs consumption plus satiety options and private companies being so available for food we shouldnt consume in high quantity is very irresponsible

  • @lorecan
    @lorecan 2 года назад +2

    I think one criticism of some of the studies shown here is that human beings generally don’t count calories. When we equate for calories we see that it’s the deficit that matters. You could probably feed someone pure sugar syrup at a calorie deficit and they would lose weight but they would likely be extremely hungry. The appeal of the keto and fasting community is the idea that it’s possible to lose weight without counting calories. Strategies that focus on regulating hormones can be very successful for some individuals especially those with extremely impaired metabolic health. The problem with the calorie counting method is it still permits poor food choices and someone trying to eat in a deficit whilst eating poor food choices is going to be more likely to overeat or quit their diet altogether

    What a breath of fresh air!
    This explains why Asian cultures stay slim as traditionally , they eat less. The social etiquette of stopping to eat before your plate is empty.. I saw a wonderful Korean documentary where overweight people who admittedly were obsessed with eating large quantities of food, a tiny minority, submitted to the sparse and thoughtful monks' diet. Of course they lost weight.
    Consumption of noodles and rice as a staple does not result in obesity without over eating. Portions are smaller. The satiety of many of Asian foods is based on an appreciation of delicate preparation and 'umami', satiation by great flavor instead of great volume.
    You are a gift , Layne.

    Lustig had me hook, line and sinker for a while. I think some of his concepts about eating real food and staying around the exterior of the grocery store are enlightening to some extent, but, I have had so much more success on my current cut by equating my calories. I have switched to a protein focused diet (180-200g per day) and filled in my remaining calories with food that is satiating. I have dropped from 205-195 over the last 5 weeks, finally breaking through a plateau I've been stuck at for quite a while.
    The best thing that Lanye preaches is to have something you can adhere to and stick with long term. Right now I can sneak a keto style ice cream which has high protein or snack on popcorn and cheese when I build it into my day. I am looking forward to the next 5 weeks on my cut and trying to break into the 180's.

    Potatoes have been a key food for me to continue my calorie deficit ling enough. Potatoes allow to add low calories volume while enjoying my food.
    Compared with other high carb foods, potatoes are very filling. They scored nearly 7 times higher than croissants.
    A scale called the satiety Index measures this effect. It was developed in a 1995 study that tested 240-calorie servings of 38 foods. In fact, boiled potatoes scored a 323 on the satiety index, which is the highest number of all 38 foods tested.

    Excellent tear down. I read Taube’s book when it was new and what resonated with me was the description of feeling both hungry and very tired whilst eating a lot of food. So the idea of trapped energy seemed exciting. Obviously this is not how it works but I know from my own eating habits that it’s the fatigue that gets me reaching for the calorie dense foods. The answer is to take a nap I guess.

    Been Keto for a while. Well mostly. I’ve bought into a lot of the hype all along (it’s actually very convincing, and I’ve seen some anecdotal evidence in my own experiences, so it wasn’t hard). That being said I’ve looked for counter arguments, and yours is the first relevant one I’ve come across. I also like that you don’t actually state it doesn’t work, just that it’s not the only method that works. I know he’s less popular, but I would love for you to examine Ben Bikman’s work. Both his talks, and his studies (he’s a researcher and a professor). It helps me to hear all sides of the story.
    Again, thank you for your work.

    Great stuff, Doc! I can attest to the fact that if you’ve never actually tracked your calorie intake, & live a sedentary lifestyle, it is definitely super easy to take in FAR TOO MANY calories. I think a lot of people simply aren’t aware of just how easy it is to take in a crap-ton of calories in our world today. Once you become knowledgeable of what you’re taking in, it becomes easier to cut back & thus begin to lose weight. Add in resistance training using progressive overload, & continue the process over time, you’ll be on the right track.

      I have a lot of people in my social circles who love to hyper-analyse what I eat, often claiming I eat too much... Whilst they're consuming more calories. :/ I won't argue, it's pointless, but people have no clue and that's fine if you naturally maintain a healthy weight, but I think the whole reason I get hyper-analysed is because obese+ people want to scream life is unfair because of how much I consume compared to them, rather than do exactly what you say. It's so simple and it's relatively easy, if they'd just be willing to make small changes and admit so far, they've not been doing it right.

    I agree with everything you say 99.9% . I was low carb , felt great but looks too stringy. Now I'm carb based (low fat) I'm even leaner and look much fuller and still feel great.. I used to think carbs made me hungry when in actual fact it was seed oils. As soon as I cut them out I've never felt as hungry. I'd love to know you opinion on seed oils, I think they're the biggest contributor to most of our modern diseases.

    The EBM holds true, but people just suck at estimating, monitoring, and changing their energetic balance in the long-term. I wish I could overeat without getting too fat, but I've been obese before and that was no fun at all. How did I escape obesity? Hypocaloric diet (paired with exercise/more activity) for long enough, no duuuh! I now enjoy my diet model and exercise regimen. I occasionally have "ad lib" days of eating when I'm in a much larger surplus than if I am in a "lean bulking" phase, but that's fine as long as these episodes aren't too frequent or too extreme. Thanks to communicators like Layne, Mike Israetel, Jeff Nippard, et al., for helping me along the way.

    I think if you take a wider perspective on the human diet over the millennia we’ve been on this planet, certain populations had access to primarily carb rich foods while others’ diets were more fat rich. Obesity was not a problem for most of human history because people have not had ease of access to calories like we do now, NOT because they were measuring their macros. lol

    • @therealfitshorty
      @therealfitshorty 2 года назад

      .... At no point did Dr. Norton say 'the only way to lose weight is to count your macros.' He DID point out that you could lose weight in low carb or low fat and that it's a matter of preference, which implies that some people's preferences may be influenced by their ancestry... which is what you're saying. The overall point of the video was to say that increased insulin isn't the cause of weight gain, but overeating is and the many ways that's proven in research. So that still goes in line with your point that people used to consume less and that was a form of weight management. He literally pointed this out in the Russian vs. Asian population- one population had less access to food and were moving more, so they had less susceptibility to gain weight. Wether you are counting your macros or not, if you're in a deficit, you can lose weight, wether it's low carb or low fat based.

    Over a long life I've studied how our body acts and reacts. Part of this has been trying reducing diets. And the more out there the ;more I wanted to try it. Probably hoping to prove it wrong. But it has never happened!! Follow the diet exactly as written and it works. No, I don't think they should be used but still they work. So, what I think is to do your homework first. Chose one that you ;can stick with and watch the weights go away! Just like exercising. If you can enjoy it, it'll work for you. Fact is, it'll be easy. Maintaining will be harder.

    I've been eating high carb/high protein, but controlling fat intake since my return to the gym after the last UK lockdown finished on April 12th 2021. As far as carbs go, Nothing's off limits, not white rice, not breakfast cereal, bread, potatoes (etc). All the 'worst' kind of high glycemic load carbs.
    My body weight has dropped 5kg (92 to 87) with a corresponding decrease in bf %, while seeing a modest increase in lean mass.
    I guess I'm just weird though, right?!

Diabulimucs will eat and then just not inject insulin and it's as if they didnt eat at all as far as what I've heard. It's also common practice for many diabetes patients to underdose their insulin to prevent weight gain. It's obviously very dangerous and fatal so dont do this but it's interesting to observe these effects

    I saw a video the other day and the recommendation to lose weight was to increase your protein intake and decrease your fat intake by the same amount. So keep your calories the same. If you decrease your fats by more you will be in too much of a caloric deficit. The recommendation was to avoid a calorie deficit to prove their low carb statements.
    Another video was to doctors are wrong that you shouldn't eat less and move more cause you can't keep decreasing what you eat. This guy promotes fasting which = eating less. He promotes not eating for up to 3 days. That = eating less and moving more.
    Love the start of this video. This has already been disproven so they slightly change it to prove their point, gets disproven lets change it again.

    Could you make a video on Lean Bulk vs Main-gain for building muscle? Which one is more effective? Main-gain is what Greg Doucette recommends, it's basically getting to a comfortable body-fat level (lets say 12-14%) and then to gain muscle while eating at maintenance.
    I respect Greg but I have seen other people that I also respect (Like Mike Israetel) recommend Lean Bulk instead.
    Is being in a caloric surplus a strong anabolic driver or not?

    It blows my mind that fat gain/loss comes down to the very simplistic and easy to mathematically understand principle of a caloric energy balance, yet so many people try to contradict it and over complicate it. There are certain nuances and small biological variances to this principle, but if you understand the basics of calories in/calories out, you already have all the tools you need to lose weight.
