@Mouseball160 T Between Dennis Pollock, Sten Ekberg, and Eric Berg, you're pretty well covered.
@denis donbas Neither is Dennis Pollock. I didn't claim either of them was.
Dr Why does Tom Brimeyer say Keto causes hypothyroidism. He said he is seeing more hypo patients because of low carbs. This confuses me and also concerns.
@denis donbas he is a dr. of chiropractic
Three weeks ago I went in for my annual checkup only to learn that my A1c was over 14, 12 months before I was at 5.2. What a shock that was. The minute I left the doctors office I started to change my diet and took the Keto route. I started to measure my Glucose every meal to see how I was doing. I took to youtube and found your site, I have been following your advice avery since, As of today my glucose reading is down to 134 from well over 400. Light exercise, zero sugar, 20 to 30 carbs per day and intermittent fasting has made a big difference in my readings. I am scheduled for lab tests next week and then back to my doctor on April 27. I have been in communication with my doctor a couple of times since my last visit. He is amazed at my change in such a short time. I owe all of my success to you and your teachings. I can't thank you enough. You are my guide down this scarry road to recovery. You have shown my the light at the end of the tunnel.
Any updates, William, ? I hope that you're doing well!!👍

Last year at age 55, I went for a blood test after the need to urinate had become hourly. 5'7", 209lbs. My fasting glucose was 214 and my A1C was 9.5. I had borderline fatty liver, borderline high blood pressure, my triglycerides were elevated, and cholesterol levels were poor. I was prescribed Metfoman twice daily. I came across one of your videos on RUclips and decided to change my diet to low carb, lots of veggies and healthy fats. In one years time I dropped to 172lbs, fasting glucose was 100, A1C was 5.6, blood pressure of 113/70, all other levels were in check. I felt great! My doctor said to me "I dont know how you did it, but you did it, you did the impossible!"
@@Gnarlyhobo you need "Butter Bob Briggs".
My husband had almost the same situation as you… same height and weight, high cholesterol and blood pressure. He is down 15 pounds after about six weeks of a low carb diet! It isn’t even keto. He hasn’t been back to the Dr. For labs yet but he feels so much better. All thanks to Dr. Ekberg. 😊
@@Gnarlyhoboit sounds like keto cause she says low carbs & good fats. I want you to know that I feel exactly as you do. I've been toying with the idea for months. Constantly you tubing other channels too. Looking for stories & explanation. The lifestyle change is the thing that gets me too. I have a client that gave me a lot of recipes that look & sound good. I'm getting closer to deciding now but I feel like a beginners guide would be great.Well good luck to feeling better & being healthy 😊😊😊
@@Gnarlyhobo I will definitely look into it! I also looked up Dr Berg cause I was trying to figure out the macros. He has a calculator you can use that figures your calories, protein, fat & carbs & is all explained in detail. I read in comments from more then one person about this Dr but never looked him up until now. I was gonna start today but I think I'm gonna look into getting ketone strips & I ruined it this morning by having coffee with vanilla creamer, haha. Alright now time to look up who you suggested. Thank you👍
I’m in my 30s and my BP is 145/108
If gold medals were given for outstanding life-saving content and delivery, you Dr. Ekberg deserve a platinum medal! Thank you for your dedication to excellence. I just got off high blood pressure medicine in just 10 days of 16:8 fasting, low carb - high fat, no processed food diet, and strength training with twice a week HIIT. Energy through the roof and I exercise while completely fasted. Next up is getting off my cholesterol meds.

RESPECT 👊🏼
Dr. ECKBERG thank you for this video. I watched in its entirety before leaving this comment. I watched that Dr. Cyrus video two years ago, telling him that his approach with high carbs goes against everything we understand about diabetes and insulin resistance but he claimsed it was all documented and fully rooted in science. Now, today, I left a comment that he should watch your video response.
I have been a Type 1 Diabetic for over 45 years and no one ever explained to me how clearly you have . I have been watching your videos and I wish someone would have explained this information to me years ago I could have avoided some damage to my body. I have completely changed my diet and have seen great glucose results and am feeling better. Thanks for doing the video series I have shared your channel with my friends
Why 🤔 do NOT most family doctors and medical school teachers adopt and apply these knowledge???😮
Dear Dr. Ekberg, Thank you for finally explaining to me how to overcome insulin dependent/DT2. I am on a no-carb OMAD for a few months + daily exercise and not injecting insulin at all. I am 85 years old and still working. Thanks again, you are the best.
Well I been on keto for a year then low carb for two years. I was a complete mess before keto. Now 54 years old I’m in perfect shape. No more meds, I can go a day easy without food or even getting hungry. No more mid day naps, my mood is way better, way more energy. I feel much younger and look much better. My skin has completely changed. All kinds of dark spots and wrinkles in my skin clean up like magic. The biggest change I have seen was in my skin. When I touch my face with my hand my face feels completely different. It’s just incredible the positive changes.
thats amazing.
I’m tired of being in defense mode when I’m asked how I look so health and lean. “OMG! You do keto? I HEAR that’s so unhealthy”. People want to knock on how I live but can’t tell me why it’s bad. Thanks Dr. Sten for keeping us informed.
Tell them about intermittent fasting if you want to see a real reaction :D
I'd flex my abs and laugh until I died
Government scaring the public for generations now is a hard thing for the conformist's mind to shake.
I get the same thing. Now I just say... I'd tell you but you'd probably just argue with me.
" People want to knock on how I live but can’t tell me why it’s bad" Because high consumption of saturated animal fat across decades is linked to a wide range of diseases.
**** this presentation deserves a Nobel prize, the best you've ever done ****
Unfortunately, he cannot win a Nobel Prize. He's not a dyed-in-the-wool raging Leftist like Al Gore or BHO. But if he were to change his politics then h e might stand a chance but only if he tells a very big lie.
I love the cow analogy. If fat makes you fat, how do cows and sheep get fat? My wife has been arguing with me for months that I shouldn’t be eating so much fat cause it will make me fat. Unfortunately, there is an entire generation of people out there that believe this. Today I showed her my steak with fat on it and asked her, if fat causes fate, and cattle eat grass, how did that fat get there? For the first time, I think she finally gets it!
Wow! Your statement has really struck me hard!
Cows digestion is made to ferment grass. Not us. this isn't rocket science..We used to be able.
Thanks for explaining this. 6 months ago my GP was alarmed by my blood glucose, 3 times healthy levels. She put me on metformin and a restricted diet. I severely reduced bread, milk, fruit juice, sweets and I swim 90 minutes a week. I started following you and kept up my healthy fat and protein consumption, with more vegetables. I did not go full Keto. I have lost 45 pounds and my blood glucose is at healthy levels. And I don’t feel hungry.
- YOURE A VERY HARD WORKER - CONGRATULATIONS ! ! !
I've done both diets and both seem to work but I just feel better on a low carb high fat diet. This video made perfect sense. Thank you!
Thank you Steve Hanks. That's usually how it works
This is the keto diet?
i do both at the same time
Have you conquered insulin resistance ? Were you a diabetic when you started ?
@@SuccessfulChan It sounds like a healthier keto.
I'm a type one diabetic with a 5.1% A1C ketocarnivore for over 15months, my weight 124lbs and I'm 5'4. When I tried to eat more as a vegetarian my A1C was over 7% when I was following that diet, very low fat, moderate carbs not more than 180g something like that. I thought eating less animal protein would help me instead I gained around 25lb to 30lbs in a year and I was walking 1 h every day and also goimg to the gym 5 days a week. Counting calories. And started to inject 5 to 6 times insulin a day. Within some months Depression started along with Hypertension. Also after 2h or 3 h having hypoglycemia it was the worse just like you said here.
4 months later I found the ketogenic lifestyle. My A1C dropped to 5.7% to 5.3% and since August last year it's been at 5.1%. I stopped taking my Depression medication in less than two months on keto. Only need insulin one or two times a day. I lost around20lbs. I'm still with Hypertension but taking only half a pill. Slowly getting better. I love this lifestyle.
Congratulations as it takes work and dedication AND self discipline to do it and you did!!!!
Hope to hear you are off medication and doing great!!!
👍😊👍😊👍😊👍😊👍😊❤️
Geez what a struggle you've gone through. 5.1% is much lower than the average obese American with out type 1. We should be ashamed of ourselves after reading your struggle and success.
Best wishes. Keep going.🌈
Why are you taking insulin when your a1c is 5.1%.? You better see the doctor and follow his/her advice on medicines with the diet you are following already whicj is good already
Amazing, clear, detailed explanations without demonizing. Great work.
Hi Doc, you have compared these two totally different diets with so much grace and class. I will follow your suggestions.
I love your video. I am Apple shaped, 59 years old, and diabetes number 2 runs in my family. Sugar is terrible for everyone. They have known this for 200 years. When people were very active, they just worried about the dentist. I am afraid of loosing limbs and eye sight because of sugar and bleached flour. It is worst than smoking and cancer. I am glad you are helping me and other people in such a big way.
You've made the complex science very simple, understandable and teachable.
I'm coming to these videos 3 years later and I'm totally on board with Dr. Ekberg. I followed his what to eat to reverse insulin resistance and it keeps me full for 24 hours plus allowing me to eat only once a day. I get over 5000 steps a day at work and I'm losing weight. It took me a long time to begin to understand these ideas but better late than never. Thank you Dr. Ekberg. I appreciate you.
You are amazing...your details are amazing..and the way you educate others is and should be applauded. God has given you a gift and you are using it to help so many! Thank you!
Thank you kristen litton. I really appreciate your feedback. This is my passion and I appreciate you watching. 😄
@@drekberg your passion really shows & so does your knowledge. i’ve learned so much from watching your videos. i’m so grateful for all that you do.
What an amazing debunking of Cyrus; and you did it in a scientific, gentlemanly way. GOOD JOB!
@denis donbas If humans are herbivores, how did Eskimos survive for thousands of years in an extremely harsh environment, eating only meat and animal fat?
denis donbas Sorry! Check dentition! Teeth show otherwise!
@denis donbas I listened to their podcast and doesn't make sense at all. No scientific explanations just pure story of his experience.
@denis donbas DUMB!
@denis donbas troll much?
Thank you dr. I have been waiting for this video. Thank you clearing this confusion. Great work
Thank you Falol Halolo. Glad to hear it.
I wanted to be “healthy”, so all my life I ate LOW FAT HIGH CARB. At age 56, needed bypass surgery and a pacemaker. PROLONGED CARBS will kill. Been 4 years now at HIGH FAT LOW CARB, NEVER FELT BETTER IN LIFE.
I hope this is true, all my life ive been told fat is bad, all the main stream news says fat is bad and now i feel like ive been brain washed by youtubers into eating a load of fat and now im worried because my chest hurts. Its all just confusion and i cant trust anyone.
Vegans i understand how you feel. It took me a long time to get get over fat phobia. Eat line our ancestors, mostly fat and protein and occasional carbs. Just stay away from the processed carbs, they’re nasty.
congratulations buddy welcome to the bright side
vegans Maybe it's just heartburn or acid reflux like I have. If I lay down after a meal, at least I don't lay on my right side. Helps me to stay on the left side. For less acid reflux. I also use digestive enzymes because my gall bladder was removed.
Manny Radzky Hopefully you’ve added K-2 (MK 7) form to supplement your diet! This will help to move out the calcium which inappropriately gets stored in tissues like blood vessels and muscle tissues, (heart), where it shouldn’t be!
I’m settled on one meal a day plus zinc, magnesium and omega 3 supplements. Never felt better. I’m 65 now and feel 30. Thanks Sten.🙂👍
I tried eating ‘fresh’ and it did nothing for me. Since starting Keto and IF, I’m not killing myself working out just to lose some weight. The food and fasting is doing most of the work for me. The exercise I get is making me more fit. I love not being hungry all the time!!!!!!
Thank you for your comprehensive and intricate analysis! I appreciate very much your attention to detail and logic!
My father has diabetes for 40 years. he felt unwell last Winter and checked himself into the hospital. He was there for 2 weeks but they couldn't find anything wrong. He came home had lost his diabetic tummy on hospital food and has kept it off. He hasn't really changed the way he eats-still a meat and potato guy-but he doing fine now. He will be 80 next month.
I went both keto and lowcarb diets to beat my insulin resistence, the result was me gaining weight, feeling aweful and getting way more body inflamation. I used to be vegetarian for almost my whiole life and never had any problems. When I started to eat meat and dairy it all have changed. Now as a vegan I'm coming back to previous body and lowing my insulin resistence plus inflamations. I have seen amazing results on friends doing keto and lowcarb, but my body simply refect those diets. I think we all are different and what works for you may not work me and we should be awere of this. Great content though!
The proof is also in the blood work...😉
You can eat plants also on keto, like avocado etc.
curious are you blood type A
is your
Thank you for taking the time to so clearly and calmly “react” to Cyrus’ video. This is a great series and as always, very educational!! Thank you!!
What I like about the low-carb eating/IF is I'm rarely ever hungry and sometimes I forget to eat
If you forget then your body most likely dosen't need it anyway so you're good.
Ditto
ME TOO Elaine.
I do it and I'm outrageously hungry 24/7
@@jakeherter Really?
Thanks a lot for being real Dr. Just following the low carb and high fat diets for two months and lose 10kg already and I get more energy in the gym too.
I am 59 years old, I've mastered intuitional mind/body health maintenance to an incredibly satisfying degree whilst rarely being moved to do anything other than ignore what I've heard from any of all medical professionals but you really impress me with what you have to share regarding health; you're the first doctor who's recommendations I've been moved to embrace. I love anything that acknowledges the natural healthy intelligence/capability of the human body. Thank you for your efforts that so readily and effectively benefit my continued health.
Finally a video that really explains the differences between low fat and high fat diets. Seriously, I've been so confused until now
I was diagnosed with type 2, at 27 in 2003 & I'm just now, (last 7 months,) getting my sugar blood under control. By working out & eating between 20 to 30 carbs, and I'm still between a 5.9 to 6.5 A1C. Still working on it & so glad I found your channel. Thing I really appreciate, doc, is unlike some people doing keto/health videos, you're not pushing any products. Now, if you start, I'll still be watching, because I can tell you are genuine as they come 💯
Thank you Uncle John. I appreciate that.
@@drekberg no thang, doc.
@Uncle , have you done any long fasts?
That nailed it for me. How comes cows have so much saturated fat in them when all they eat is grass.
HIGH CARB INTAKE!
I followed this guy a long time ago and realized something was wrong with his program. Thanks for clearing everything up!
I love your content and how clearly you can explain the road to health!
This was a very illuminating lecture. I have come over years to my personal best diet, which allows me to eat only once a day, besides a small breakfast carb input, which for me is THE life saver.
I have moved away from junk food, without becoming excessively fanatic, meaning that I can make exceptions without dying right away.
My body has become brave to keep the sugar levels at a healthy level for me, but it isn't healthy in general. I can't say that my diet will work under all circumstances for everybody. It works for me, because I first became fat and then I got too low blood sugar by a tiny bit, and nobody was able to guess that factor ... Until I tried selectively to exclude specific components. I then found out, that I could eat high protein, small fat, normal salt , low carb food, until I found that a small intake of sugar in the morning changed my whole day radically. With 10-20 g of sugar all symptoms of slowly dying disappeared. It took 10 years to find this equilibrium.
Now I am experimenting with a mixed diet, because I want to get rid of the must-have sugar intake, and currently I have best results with handmade pasta (all purpose flour, eggs, salt) and a sauce, handmade, too.
I do the 8 hour diet with late breakfast at 9 am and have my only real meal at around 5 pm. And I feel great, loose slowly and constantly weight, and don't feel on diet. I can take part on social events once an then, without being the guy who can't eat or, who stuffs his face. I pick the food I like without haste, and love it. And the host loves it, too 😊
Reassuming, I believe finding the own best diet without becoming too picky, and far away from junk food and drinks of course, are the way of satisfaction and health. I am now 59 and glad not feeling sick every day.
Interesting
Doctor Ekberg, I have watching your videos for a week now. I have learned so much. I have learned that I have a health issue from teen age years just connecting the dots.... if I knew I won’t be where I am today... Now over 50 I’m dealing with health issues, but I’m determined to apply your teachings, and change and be healthy!!! Thank you for all you have done for this channel.
Terrific video again. I am working my way through them. I started LCHF with IF and have had excellent results so far.
Keto took my pre-diabetes A1C of 5.7 to 5.1. I have labs coming up in a couple of months. I expect the same or better results then. It is difficult not to believe everyone would have the same benefits from the keto diet, but people are different, and they react differently to carbs.
edited to add I am 68 years old. My highest weight was 365 lbs. I am now 280 lbs and have joined a gym and work out 3x per week.
Update now?
armadillotoe I got on keto when I was at 313 pounds 7 months ago and am now at 242, descending constantly. I'm 5'7" and I hope to get down to 170 pounds, way to go, but I feel great and I'm 71 years old.
Dr Sten, you have managed to interest me in studying holistic medicine as a possible career change. This is real information that actually helps people, and I've definitely had my own success with IF and low carb.
I enjoy all your videos and watch at least 3-5 a day. I appreciate that you watch other RUclips influencers on the topic of health and then make an honest critiquing video.
Man, you're absolutely brilliant in explaining that in a so clear and obvious way. I suspected that is the case for the past 25 years, as that makes logical sense, yet the opposite "scientific beliefs" about getting fat because of eating fat is so strong and so widespread, that it takes some balls to actually BE in that scientific world and HAVE the courage to speak. Thanks a million.
Tell me what shd we eat.
@@ritathomas5642 Literally ANYTHING apart from carbohydrates (or to be more precise, make sure all the combined carbs do not exceed 20-50 grams per day, depending on individual organism). Works like a dream.
@@ritathomas5642 so no factory produced oils. No margarine. No sugary drinks, includes sports drinks. No fruit juices. No low fat products. Choose full cream milk. Full cream everything, yoghurt etc. try heavy cream in your coffee. Ummmmm! No artificial sweeteners. No biscuits cakes pastries. Only saturated fats, butter, lard. Tallow. Not even olive oil so I believe. No processed meats. The only one approved of is bacon. Plenty of eggs allowed. The fat on meats. Check out Dr Sten. Videos on what to eat. Huge amount to learn. Plenty left and
all tastes good. Shop from the outside isles supermarkets. Real foods, vegetables, meat, etc. I never buy anything in a packet. That is my rule. Hope you are going alright.
i love this guy! he breaks the physiology down to where the lay person can understand what is happening in the body! Edberg tells us like it is and not like it ain't! i get it Doc, and i'm glad you are here! i'm following you now! thank you for your help!!!

Hi doc! I've done both diets and currenlty 3 months into carnivore. Luckily for me the time in my life I did hclf I was fairly young (40) and it worked wonders. It was a really hard slog and exercise was critical. HFLC, in comparison, has seemed like a cake walk. Big drop in weight and really positive results mentally. My exercise level is at a very comfortable level - mainly due to work commitments. I'm starting to call this diet an "invalid" diet. Exercise seems largely optional! I'm really looking forward to seeing what happens this year when I can commit to more exercise and start moving to a more balanced food pyramid. For the first time in decades I have set a goal to reach optimal weight which I truely believe I can reach with this diet and your sage advice.
Many thanks.
That was extremely articulate and informative thank you Dr. Ekberg.
Another spot on video. The guy in the video sounds so convincing until a true doctor and expert breaks done the science. It's easy to see why people get confused and start unsustainable diets. Been there done that never going back.
Cyrus actually has a PhD in nutritional science
Yes true, and a large aspect of his PhD research is the biochemistry of the human physiology
Thanks for a very well explained video. The more I become educated in the world of nutrition, the more I believe that a balanced diet is the way to go. Of particular importance is the quality of the carbs, which as mentioned should be real food not processed and with no added sugar. Combined with regular exercise you’re golden!
You are a master teacher!! What a great presentation. I do not have diabetes but I know a ton of people who do. At one time I was wfpb and I was hungry all the time. My numbers were great but I was obsessed with what I was going to eat next. That lasted for about 4 years. It caused me to jump off of the deep end. Luckily I knew enough to stay away from SAD...but until I stumbled on your videos I was not as focused as I needed to be. Thank you so much for your time and expertise!! I can't get enough of your teachings and I share, share, share...
Dr Debunker, thank you very much for your public service.
I am 47yo and feel better on healthy keto and IF then in my 20's - 30's
Your videos are one of my favorite go to sleep and wake up companion.
Thank you again.
Very nice presentation. For me, it's the sugars and refined\processed carbs that are the problem. I especially appreciated the "How did the fat get into the cell" comment and subsequent explanation.
Thanks for that clarity! I was scratching my head watching “other” advisers. 🙃🙃🙃
Great video!! You are an excellent teacher and treat people with opposing views fairly.
Interesting... it was the same with cholesterol and CVD.... they found arterial plaques were made up of cholesterol and assumed it got there because you ate cholesterol rich foods.
Thank you so much for addressing this question! I think it’s a very important one!
For one year now I’ve been learning about nutrition, and I first went on a « whole food plant based diet », meaning essentially more carbs and less fats. In this plant-based-low-fats-diet community, some talk about this insulin resistance problem, caused by fat clogging the cells. It is their main argument to discard the keto diet (even keto diets where you eat no meat).
But at the same time I was frequently exposed to the importance of (good) fats for the brain, the mood, the health, the diabetes etc..
I was so confused. I didn’t understand how two opposed affirmations could be true.
Now I understand. And my choice is made. I am becoming a health champion! 💪😉
So, a big thank you!
Wow! This is very eye opening.....thank you for such a great comparison with a good explanation of each.
Thank you for this video! It truly cleared up so much confusion for me. From your videos I learned to do 4 basic things...
1. I now eat whole foods
2. I eat between noon and 6pm only
3. I cut sugar and carbs drastically
4. I eat a plant based high fat diet
I am a 54 year old African-American man with a family history of diabetes. Since I started following these principles I have lost 56 lbs in 3 months. My A1C has dropped from 7.9 to 5.4. My bp is 121/81. Oh..by the way, I now take zero medication.
THANK YOU DR EKBERG!
Good job sir! congrats!
You explain things so well!!! I've lost 15 pounds! I have never been able to do that before listening to your programs.😊
Thanks so much for making this video! I met with these guys last week and couldn’t believe what they were saying about low carb high fat only working temporarily. I also knew switching to their diet plan would be a guaranteed failure for me. I’ve had a great deal of success following what you’ve been saying, so I have been looking around for more information on what they have been saying. Thrilled that it was you of all people to have done a comparison video. I’m happy to continue to do what I’ve been doing. A1c down from 12.6 to 6.1 and lost 40lbs, following your tutelage. I still have a ways to go, but I will get there. Thank you!
I watched a scientific talk on the Low Carb Down Under channel about saturated fat versus plant oils. Cells apparently get overstuffed with fat because the body knows what to do with saturated fats and will turn them away, but plant seed oils like canola don't have this effect and it can make your cells take in way more fat than normal which can lead to insulin resistance.
Fantastic video. Thank you so much for clearing this up. Great to learn the nuances from a real medical doctor who lives and breathes this every day in their practice.❤
I see the thing for Cyrus at 5:30 and think "That's great, but I know of at least 3 type 1 diabetics that are down to under 20 units of long acting insulin a day, with absolutely no short acting insulin use, and A1c in the 4s on a clean ketogenic diet"...
Also, his poster child that lost 30 pounds in 6 months. In just over 2 months of clean ketogenic eating + IF, I lost 30 pounds, dropped my A1c from 9.2 to 5.6, lowered my blood pressure, and greatly improved my lipid numbers, with no medications.
All while eating extremely tasty food, but usually only once a day because I'm not hungry very often.
Thank you Mark Beiser. Exactly. Thanks for confirming.
I always watch the videos you and Dr Mandell created. You guys are awesome! I trust what you say more than my MD.
Thank you for systemically breaking it down, and removing the confusion!!
Glad it was helpful!
This is an excellent education and your graphs of the macros was the review I needed. I did keto in my 20s-40s off and on and lost weight. I'm now 66, T2D, and having a heck of a time losing now, so back to the drawing board on what's happening and how to adjust my diet for fat loss. Thank you, Dr. Ekberg.
Thank you dr. Ekberg! You have helped me so much - I wish we could talk. This comparison video is very helpful and we hope you will do more like it. Love you bro!
Hello Dr Ekberg. I’m a 62 year old Canadian type 1 diabetic, diagnosed about a year ago, caused by immunotherapy treatment for cancer. I’m trying to follow dr Richard k Bernstein’s Diabetic solution regimen. I must say how I really appreciate all that you do. I appreciate how level headed you are and how you explain the science behind the subjects you present. You come across to me as very caring and trustworthy. thank you!
I agree with you, he was young when he did that kind of diet.
I started my IF last year 36 years old and in 3 months i lost 50lbs by doing 16/18 low carb, no sugar diet. And I did it as a lifestyle. Help me with my faty liver, hypertension and psoriasis.
@Edwin Regaspi Wow! youve got more hours in your day than most will ever! (LoL :)
Thank you so much for all your efforts to keep us in the know! How I wish there would be some kind of censoring of youtube videos on low carb/diabetes-related topics and the ones that talk rubbish wouldn’t be allowed to go live. It would be a dream world for us diabetics who want to reverse our condition. No more confusion and misinformation...
Thank you Dr. Ekberg for this clear explanation. When Cyrus compared the graphs of the LFHC vs HFLC/HFHPLC and tried to explain that the latter two went off the charts, even a non-scientific mind like mine can SEE the graph where all three diets peaked at the same point. But then the latter two stabilized and slowly started to descend. If I were on his prescribed style of eating, I’d be in a diabetic coma. I’d rather trust the science and data than one individual’s personal experience.
Yes, and Cyrus' diet nearly got ME into a diabetic coma.
I would have to think the guy in the other video would have to be convinced due to the overwhelming science coming from Dr. Ekberg. Great objective presentation. Dr. ekberg always brings the explanation which he knows makes his message so powerful. Thanks for another one!
what amazes me is that the joints in my feet and elbows dont hurt anymore . Before my keto lifestyle, i was one of those guys that took advil all day just to make it through.
Yup! My arthritic toes no longer cause me pain.
Yes! Less inflammation on keto/low carb for sure. Easily could help so many people, if they would give it a chance.
Indeed. I wanted to try Keto but, I figured I’d rip someone’s face off during the workday so, I’m just trying low carb.
I’ve even been living by the glucometer for the past week and have experimented and cheated but, yes, I need a bit less sleep, I feel and hear less inflammation, I’m guessing, as my knees don’t snap, crackle and pop, when I stand up, after sitting down for awhile.
Sadly though, my mother, who is 76, likely has painful neuropathic feet from unmanaged diabetes. While I have been on Metformin for decades and am finally working to change my diet, she simply doesn’t want to take pills. Instead, she’d rather major tooth loss, painful neuropathy, and I would bet that the brain shrinkage spoken of in this video is EXACTLY what is occurring. I have asked her what size ocean liner she needs to be smacked with in order to realize that she’s not only killing herself, but that she’s literally designing devastation for her daughters, with the miscalculation that we’re simply going to stop working when SHTF for her.
NSAIDs like Advil destroy cartilage creating arthritis over long use. And its hard on the heart and gut.
@@stewart5284 yeah and people taking it for their arthritic pain not knowing they are causing it to get worse.
This is the clearest explanation I have ever seen! Thank you.
I started dieting and exercising while watching your videos, I'm vegetarian but am following high fats low carbs and it's hard to substitute carbs but am getting there!
I'm a vegetarian and would like to know what you did to substitute carbs. Having a hard time with the substitution part.
@@mp-jg1hu Almond flour and riced/mashed cauliflower are your friends when following a low carb diet as a vegetarian. Zucchini noodles/ribbons are also great as noodle substitute. Also avocado and nuts are your friends to eat sufficient and satiating calories. I also love stir frying using cabbage as the base allows you to eat flavorful meals.
@@nataliajimenez1870 thanks for the good advice! Will try these foods more often.
I recently found you and I thank God. I have watched 5 to 6 of your videos and the way you show the science makes sense to me!!! I've recently been diagnosed with pre diabetic and high cholesterol. Put on stains for that,which I hate! The way you respectfully disagreed with him was wise and kind. 😊 That shows your integrity and knowledge of the diabetic disease. I will try your suggestions and pray for good results. Thank You for your wisdom. New subscriber and follower for life.
Thank you so much for this video! I was at the point of trying to decide exactly this due to a recent CKD diagnosis. It is widely recommended to decrease protein intake, especially animal proteins. Do you have a video on nutrition/diet for CKD? I appreciate the thorough research you do for your presentations.
Wow, thank you for such a great explanation. There are many people who eat unhealthy Vegan diets full of processed foods. In the same way there are many who eat an unhealthy low carb or keto diet. It is hard to know in these studies what people are really eating. Thank You for your great methodically presented content. Always learn from your videos.
Eating the low carb and high-fat diet, I started to lose weight and feel better. It has been more than a week now, still new, but it seems working. I feel soooooo light. Also low carb and high-fat diet I eat till I am full and I even lose weight. I do physical work for a living that probably also has something to do with losing weight faster with this new diet I am in, but when I was on high healthy carbs, I never lost any weight but didn't gain any, always starving and craving for more. I am a type 2 diabetic. My blood sugar ranges from 6.5-9; my doctor never put me on insulin because my 3-month average was 7-7.5. I still have lots to lower this sugar level by eating the low carb/high-fat diet. Thank you, Dr. Ekberg
Dear dr Ekberg, thank you so much for your clear and calm explanation!
I’m T1. Currently, I can’t do a lot of exercise. If I ate a high carb diet, I’d be dead now.
This guy puts the sense in logic and the logic in sense. Amazing glad I found this channel
This is brilliant, I love the way you explain a complex subject in a way that even I can understand. I had to laugh when the guy contradicted himself at the end, then justified it by saying that it didn't work long term, then didn't show any proof to back up his theory.
One of the best videos about this topic I have seen so far! Thank you so much! ❤
Love your response, your objectivity and the way in which you addressed this topic. In the end, at least for me, it’s about your results. I can best best described as having a good looking physique, however I started statins and high blood meds in my mid-thirties. I’m now in my mid-fifties and while my meds have remained the same for the past twenty years, I have not been able to get my numbers lower. I exercise and eat a very good diet. I practice “moderation” and frankly it’s achieved the results that I’m seeing: not getting worse but not getting better. I think my problem is that I have been approaching the problem from the wrong angle. I’ve now embarked in the LCHF lifestyle and we’ll be where it goes. I’m have a healthy physical lifestyle so the only variable I’m changing is my diet. I’ve already noticed some positive results but for me it’s about sustainability over the longer term. I love watching your videos and cross referencing them to other in the RUclips world. You are great at presenting content in a plain, logical and clear manner. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Every lecture is enlightening .thank you doctor.
Last year my A1C was >14
7 months later its 4.9
50lbs lower, BP normal, all other blood markers good
Low carb, no alcohol, no processed food, small portions of berries and 99% dark chocolate, lots of green tea etc
Kettlebell, HIIT, walking 6 days per week
Fitter now at 57 then i was at 40
Thank you Dr Ekberg, your videos saved my life.
Many blessings to you!! That's amazing!!🎉😀
Such an inspiration to listen too. Very informative Doc. Loved it! Thank you.
You are my hero. Thank you for helping me truly understand keto and insulin resistance. Was wondering if you could do a video that touches on keto meal replacement shakes?? I know many of them have so many bad ingredients but I thought there may be a couple of acceptable ones? I was also looking at garden of life keto shakes just as an example. Again thank you so much for the education. You really empower me to take control of my health.
Thanks a lot Dr. Ekberg.
I appreciate the way you call us health champions.
I am learning from you and hope to help others put their health in place.
Great job and stay blessed.
Hej Dr Ekberg thank you for sharing yet again, I’m so sensitive to sugar my parents had diabetes at their later stage in their life. So each time u post I’m following religiously your advice and tips. 🥰👍🏻
Ty for such a precise explanation and showing side by side errors & correctness … YOU ARE THE BEST ….!!!
Thk u Dr Sten for your detailed information, so helpful👍
Thank you.. I am 5 weeks in to being a T2D. Ive been in a ER for 3 days (I was at a 389 glucose reading fasting and self admitted myself) met with an Internal medicine doctor and a endocronologist that are good.. but they really cannot spend the time I need to understand and ultimately beat this thing or at least understand the mechanism and reduce it as much as I can. Thank you for doing these videos. I think T2D for me has been a blessing rather than a curse. It has forced me to get serious about my health at age 51.
As usually, a very teaching video coming from you! Thank you for clearing us up on this topic!
Bless your heart Dr. Eckberg, you are really a blessing to us all you have helped many many people. God bless you I’m learning to from you. You’re a great teacher you explain things so very clear and well. Thank you very much for all the videos. God bless you.🥰
Living for today, we only have today. Low sugar, high fat and good quality protein makes me feel good today.
This is the first time I've seen a non-WFPB doctor argue without major logical fallacies for other diets. Kudos to you. I have never had diabetes but I've been eating WFPB for 1½ years now with great health results, and for all this time I've been longing to find well-educated critics, because I want to know about possible pitfalls. I doubt I could live on a high-fat whole-food diet mainly because I have a tendency to eat a lot and hate counting calories. It neither seems to me like there's a lot of food options (variety) for a ketogenic diet, which would be a big sacrifice for me. I'm also curious to find out how the ketogenic diet scores in inflammation and cancer (particularly colon, prostate and breast). I'd be curious to find out the biochemistry processes too.
What it means by WFPB?
@@user-uj1qx2zg6v Whole Food Plant Based
carnivore diet is healthier longterm then ketogenic. eliminating all plants is better. try meat, salt, water for the greatest health benefits u will ever see in life!!
To keep it short, fats are the most long-term satiating food that slowly releases energy for over 8 hours since eating. Many doing keto only feel the need to eat once or twice a day and lose weight without calorie counting or even trying. Inflammation goes down because of less glycation and oxidative stress. Cancers have been noted to progress slower or even regress, because they eat glucose to duplicate without stopping, less glucose, less it can live on. Your body can run on ketones, an alternative fuel which is the definition of keto, can't feed them.
I have watch a lot of videos (been on both Plant Based and LCHF) and this explanation was excellent and the best video I have seen. Thanks so much!
Cyrus's diet is better than a SAD diet but that doesn't mean his way is the ONLY or the best way. We've been following Dr Ekberg's advice for 4 months now and we've never felt better or looked better. We have benefited from Dr Ekberg's advice in so many ways, but to date we have not experienced any negative results.
