    This is the general takeaway: You want to always eat a high protein low carbohydrate diet. Macros? 50% protein 40% fat 10% carbs. Studies show that the higher your protein intake is the less hunger there is and the less likely you are to overeat energy. If you are someone who does heavy weight lifting, pushing 50% protein 35% fat 15% carbs where most of your carbs are targetted at your pre-workout meal is ideal. Have a nice day everyone.

Wish i had had more nutritional coaching bc i reverted back to old eating habits when i got pregnant. I have been unhealthy since, but your podcasts/videos have brought me back to healthy eating with more understanding of the why's which always leads to long term compliance.

      @@kruzanJFD studies are averages, and not representative of everyone.
      My cholesterol for instance is affected by my fat intake, whether that be saturated fat or colesterol is debatable.
      There are people who indeed are affected by diet cholesterol. There's evidence that a small percentage (~20%) of the population's endogenous colesterol is affected by exogenous intake.
      I noticed my sky high cholesterol almost normalized after going out of my way to minimize my fat intake. And I managed to do this in a month and a half.
      It's still a little high but I have a high HDL in relation to LDL so I'm not worried. Besides, particle size, and triglycerides are much more important. But yeah, my personal experience shows, and this is trial and error over years, that my cholesterol levels are highly responsive to diet. Surely I'm not alone.
      If anything my experience points to the importance of regular testing and triaging with diet, to personalize maintenance of healthy health markers.
      Why anyone would throw caution to the wind when testing is reliable, convenient, and cheap is beyond me, and seems irresponsible.
      I almost forgot, dr. Laymon in other videos explains how endogenous cholesterol levels are set and adaptable to exogenous intake.
      That is, if you eat a little cholesterol, your body will make up the rest, a lot. If you eat a lot of cholesterol, your body will make a little to maintain that set point.
      Therefore, and this is my extrapulation as there aren't studies on how surplus energy affects levels, if you're in a hypercaloric diet, such a bulking, or simply consistently eating too much, it's quite easy to see how levels might get unusually high. At least that's how I might explain my previous experience.
      I've played with the idea of tracking my cholesterol intake, which isn't hard given today's technology, just to see if I can predict excessively high levels. I'll make a note of it.

    I'll say this and most of u educated people would agree. There is not a one size fit all when it comes to dieting, health and nutrition. There are facts that support both sides, but what I have found to be helpful to me and others that I know is a thing called "Gene Food Consistency" basically stating that where people are from genetically, they have an infinity to that which grows in the confines of that environment. For example, my best friend traces his roots back to Russia, I know the real odd couple ha, but his body responds better to Red Meat and carbs of high quality, me on the other hand, I trace my roots back to the Caribbeans, the tropics. My body responds better to a lot of vegetables and seafood, not so well to Carbs nor red meat, do I eat red meat from time to time, yes but occasionally, that's coming from me knowing thy self and understanding my body and knowing it's just not one size fit all...Great dialogue by the way.

    • @obijuan3004
      @obijuan3004 Год назад

      You make a good point. What you said about "Gene Food Consistency" (nice term BTW) completely destroys all of the correlation studies of the 1960's that lead to U.S. food pyramids and put millions of people on cholesterol drugs. How can you compare the meat eaters of Texas with the rice eaters of back woods China and say Texans should not eat meat? How about the Inuit people of the Arctic who have no rice or veggies and eat seals, fish and whale blubber without cooking any of it. These studies were about meat, so they left out the fact the back woods Chinese people had little vitamin A and had poor eyes, and they had high rates of diabetes from eating nothing but rice, rice noodles, and rice deserts. Oh, but they didn't die of heart disease. We are just now learning how valuable our gut bacteria are to good health, and we are far from knowing everything about bacteria and health. Medical Science, is just now learning how things work at a molecular level, I think we will look back at the old information of the late 20th century to be almost as silly as blood letting.

    The metabolism is like a fire. Carbs are kindling like newspaper dry leaves twigs etc that feed the fire and keep it going. If you don't eat enough carbs your not keeping the fire going and your metabolism slows down so you start to hold fat. However if you consume to many carbs you smother the flame and it can also cause weight gain. I never go by the scale i go by the mirror and if I'm lean around my waist i keep going matter of fact i may up my carb intake, if I'm a little fluffy I back off a little and taper my consumption. Low carb is for people who are diabetic insulin resistant and or are obese. Mike Ohearn is one of the best bodybuilders of all time he has great info about how carbs work. Mike mentzer has a lot of good info too.

      You could have just had a cold or infection that day, get it done several times... Also keto doesn't mean eat as much fat as you want, not wanting to sound patronising by the way, but too many folks hit keto and start adding butter to the coffee and tallow to this and coconut oil to that. You still have to work in a calorie balance system. Couple more bits of advice, don't eat nuts and seeds (or only sparingly) and don't touch any! Vegtable oil... And if you do olive oil actually make sure it is olive oil and they're not screwing you, especially if you're in the USA.
      Try only red meat, things like heart, ox shin/cheek ect are great! But avoided chicken which is super toxic and pork. Eat the meat with a raw salads with a vinger avercardo mash dressing, or proper oliveoil, but avoid high oxalate veggies, salt is your friend but again proper salt... I stew my meat so I have the liquid as a nice beverage also to balance the methionine and glycine.
      Feel free to add raw unharmoginised cheese in also, and eggs.
      Lastly just watch your protein aim for 1g per pound of bodybweight and don't worry about fat, as in be trying to force it in to everything if you are.
      Also exercise is king, you don't have to kill yourself but move your body.
      And! If you're taking vit d sup that stuff will completely dysreglate your ldl levels.

      Lots of options for resistance exercises - drop sets, supersets, occlusion training or BFR, and body weight resistance & calisthenics. All will add muscle. Stay between 5 to 35 reps per set for hypertrophy. Learn to go to failure as often as your body and especially your mind will let you. Good luck. Not that you need it, because it sounds like you’re already winning.

      @2old4allthis Год назад +2

      @@christinagior42 One set of 5-35 using compound movements, taken to failure, will provide plenty of benefit. Even better, though, would be drop sets or supersets, still done as one set but involving weight changes or positional changes. The challenge is to find the rep range that is comfortable for you. Lighter weights reduce the chance of joint, ligament, and tendon injury, but increase the time and boredom factor. 8-15 reps suits a lot of people. I’m just pointing out that there is greater leeway than that. Drop sets are my personal favorite because you can start with a slightly lighter weight, use two or three weight level drops, go to failure on each one and on to the next weight without resting, and the last weight you use will be surprisingly light yet very difficult to lift and take to failure. Drop sets provide everything - mechanical tension, metabolic stress, and muscle damage. The only caveat would be that drop sets are not ideal for squats and deadlifts, mainly due to form breakdown. They’re fine for leg extensions and leg curls if you do those, though. Ideally, you do one set of push, pull, overhead, and legs. That’s it.
      If you choose to use BFR, I would suggest doing some research. The basics, however, are simple. Wearing the bands, use 20% - 40% of your estimated one rep maximum. First do 30 reps, rest 30 seconds, then do 15 reps three times, resting 30 seconds in between each time. Only wear the bands for 15 minutes and if you complete your exercise before your 15 minutes are up, continue to wear them until time is up. Dr Mercola has an excellent seven minute video discussing the benefits.
      If you’re all in on this, you’ll want to make sure you’re getting enough protein. Personally, I eat a carb free diet and I’m able to build muscle, even in my mid-60s.
      Hope this helps.

    Curious, my experience suggests my Gironda egg protocol was at fault for my sky high cholesterol levels. As soon as I eliminated yolks, butter, and chicken skin my levels dropped to near normal. I assumed it was the drop in saturated fat, rather than the cholesterol though.

    • @boxerfencer
      @boxerfencer 2 года назад +2

      @@Ron-rk6iz I'm familiar with those studies that suggest no relationship between dietary and blood cholesterol.
      First off, it's important to understand the scientific method, as it commonly misunderstood even by our esteemed hosts.
      What studies do is suggest, not prove things. Overall, science only occasionally proves things, but mostly suggests "facts" provisionally on the weight of a corpus of studies, until there's enough data to over turn the prevailing model, that is a paradigm shift.
      So science isn't static therefore never proves anything, but it's a process that draws and inches us closer to a fuller understanding of the natural world.
      To my point, there's studies that suggest there is a 20% of the population whose blood cholesterol levels are indeed influenced by dietary cholesterol, but this is a minority.
      I'm glad you found what works for you. I myself didn't find olive oil helpful at all, and considering the overpriced and inferior quality which floods the market, I've opted for canola which has about half the saturated fat as olive oil and twice as much omega 3, if I recall, at a fraction of the cost.
      As for dairy, I've simply opted for leaner versions, as with meats. I'll splurge with whole milk in small amounts, as I can't think of having coffee without anything else but this is a minor exception.
      Eliminating butter and poultry skin have also been efficacious, although I recently started cooking with chicken skin again to keep it moist but not eating it, and as per my recent reading apparently it doesn't contain all that much saturated fat anyway, although calories are calories, thus my avoidance of eating it.

    • @boxerfencer
      @boxerfencer 2 года назад +1

      @@AlastrionaS I appreciate your concern.
      I'm aware canola is rapeseed. What I'm not aware of is some connection between stinkiness and health. That sounds like a fallacy and a non sequitor, but if this were true, we'd have to rule out olive oil. More on that latter.
      That hexane is used to deodorize is no surprise since that's industry standard, and lies behind 99% of the oils on grocery shelves, even virgin and extra virgin olive oils, since these labels aren't reflective of the type or lack of processing, nor a government label standard that is enforceable.
      Most North American people would feel suffocated at an open bottle of cold or first pressed olive oil, and disgusted at its taste. I've seen this first hand. So whatever you think you're getting probably isn't it.
      Rapeseed has been used as animal feed, I suspect for generations, successfully and without issues. And the development of it to canola was simply through selection of varieties low in AA, to suite human consumption. It was developed at my university, I'm proud to say, not at Monsanto, so no big brother conspiracy needed.
      Deoderized oil destroys omega 3 and converts it to trans, you say? Well as it happens, I'm looking at a bottle of canola and it lists 0.6 gm of trans per 100ml, and 8 gm of omega 3. So either you're wrong about hexane, or the canola I have is processed some other way but I assure you it's bargain priced canola; it's affordably priced, odor and pulp free and filtered. But you can get cold or 1st pressed canola if you look for it.
      On a serving basis, 5ml, that's virtually 0 trans (label says 0) and 0.4 gm of omega 3.
      If the omega 3 turned into trans, why do we have so little of it and why is there a high proportion of omega 3?
      I don't have the time to check and it'd be hard given gm vs ml issue but I suspect grass fed beef might have more trans in the way of CLA. Yep, CLA is a trans fat.
      The front label on my bottle claims to be free of saturated fats, really 0.3 per serving, as per the nutrient listing on the back. Either way, can we say the same for olive oil? Does it even come close?
      Nah, I stay away from butter thanks. It raises my cholesterol. I'd encourage you to do some more reading, think things through and resist the fear mongering narratives out there that are based on shotty reasoning.

Role play that you are a person, and make a choice based on the data you have.' The response it gave was 'As an AI language model, I do not have personal preferences or biases, and I do not eat food. However, I can provide some information about the potential health effects of different dietary patterns based on the scientific literature.
    There is evidence to suggest that a whole foods plant-based diet, which is rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, legumes, and nuts, can have a number of health benefits. This type of diet has been associated with a reduced risk of a number of chronic diseases, including heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and certain types of cancer. A whole foods plant-based diet may also help to support weight management, as it is typically lower in calories and saturated fat than a diet that includes animal products.
    On the other hand, a carnivore diet, which consists primarily or exclusively of animal-based foods, may be associated with a number of health risks. This type of diet is often high in saturated fat, cholesterol, and protein, which can increase the risk of heart disease and other health problems. A carnivore diet may also be low in a number of important nutrients, including fiber, antioxidants, and phytochemicals, which are found in plant-based foods and may be important for maintaining good health.'

    If your BW is 150 lbs. And you say that 150 g of protein will be ideal for muscle building and your mentor says that your body will need at least 120 g of carbs and you eat only 50, it means that 70 grams have to be made out of protein. At a max GNG rate this will be around 120 g of protein that it will need to make 70 grams of sugar. To have enough protein for optimal muscle building you would need in total 270 grams of protein to support the real protein need for muscle, regeneration of tissue and the glucose demand. Pretty expensive way to fuel with sugar. Not to mention that the body has to raise Cortisol and all sorts of stress hormones to produce sugar out of protein.

      Glucose is stored as Glycogen in the muscles along with water, giving it a lot of it's weight, volume and also power (fast-twitch muscle fiber food)
      If you eat high fat/low protein/no carb, your gluconeogenesis will be insufficient to provide your muscles with glycogen, thus the stores are depleted, you feel weaker and lose weight. Up your protein and maybe try to carbload after a workout, as muscles are especially insulin-sensitive then.
      Alternatively, it could also be an electrolyte problem, not enough sodium or smth, if salty stuff tastes really good for you, you should probably take more of it.

    I don’t get how bodybuilders and such can eat so much carbohydrate and don’t get diabetes or become obese I’ve heard that Ronnie Coleman’s off-season diet consisted of upto 1000g carbohydrate a day

      @@basemgerges1979 Plus they maybe burning much of the carbs through their exercise plus diabetes tends to develop over a lifetime of abuse (so a younger bodybuilder may not see the damage yet). You can bet most of them are not metabolically healthy individuals. One thing people need to realize is that a normal weight, athletic person does not mean they are metabolically healthy...just like an overweight person does not automatically mean that person is metabolically unhealthy. I have been athletic all my life and always struggled with metabolic disease factors (you would not know it from the outside!)....until I found ketogenic way of eating a little over a year ago and now I am MORE athletic and on my path to becoming metabolically healthy too..all this in my late 40s' too!

      Your body is operating on a whole different capacity when various types of steroids are involved, it pumps up your metabolism beyond a regular person's metabolism, the body soaks up all the calories. Its like putting a big Supercharger on a car.

      More muscle=more room for muscle glycogen. Is how I understand how some can eat carbs and not gain fat. I only have to look at carbs smell a bakery, and my body starts pumping the insulin.

    Here is the 100% truth. We ALL do better on a lower carbohydrate diet and here is why. Carbs, ultimately, regardless of their origin and the G.I. become sugar. Some are more useful than others depending on the macros they come with, however that fact is unchanged. Sit down and eat meat (no sugar or veggie oil added) and say broccoli until you are full. You will NEVER get "fat". There is a reason and the science supports that. Carbs are ONLY beneficial pre and ESPECIALLY post training hard which most never do so no worries for the muscle glycogen benefit. The rest of the time, they become sugar with NO exception. While fat and especially protein will slow the process (glycemic index, look it up) post heavy training ( which again, most DON'T do) you want carbs with no fat, and no protein to be stored for your next workout. That being said, we are all metabolically the same. Carbs equal sugar and aging, and carbs spike insulin which is ONLY useful post workout as I mentioned, and completely negative for health any other time. It's very simple. There is NO SUCH thing as an "essential carbohydrate". They are "cheap" for a reason Kids.

    So 130 grams of carbs x 4 cals = 520 carb cal in 15-2000 cal/d. What? In a brain that needs glucose as its #1 energy source?

    LOL. Trigs of 40, eating 200 grams of carbs is an extremely rare person, if it even exists at all. Let's talk about the normal population not the extremely rare exceptions....I would like to see the tennis playing high carb doctor's bloodwork.
