Let's all take a moment to appreciate the fact that some SciShow staffer went to a stock photo site and typed in something along the lines of "shirtless buff guy holding bread."
Galactose sounds like a 90s super-villain.
Now that I think about it, it does sound like a villain 😂
Galactus is a marvel comic villain
🤣
I remember I saw a commercial, I think it was for a TV show, where a woman was at a restaurant and asked "What do you have that doesn't have calories, carbs, gluten, fat, etc.?" and the waitress says "Water."
Hilary Duff movie.
Chandler Nickles What's it called?
+OptimusPhillip a Cinderella story
She forgot to say "bleach"
bleach has some fat in it from the lemon oils
Most people should learn this in ninth grade biology
Most people should learn this in tenth grade health
I learned it in 6th grade
Sadly, hardly anyone cares about what they learn in high school, and even less are able to remember it for long enough for that information to be helpful.
People take biology in the 9th grade?
The only thing I learned in 9th grade was that the mytocondria is the power house of the cell and that the cell is the minimal and structural unit of life tbh
Lol thought it said Deal with the crabs
Me too, lol.
deal with Mr krabs
+Papa Emeritus II nope....the std
Same
Yep, me too.
"Fiber is your friend" and "You shouldn't be afraid of carbohydrates." Love it! Way to jam-pack all this information :)
Im gonna go buy some groceries and i better be havin 200likes when i come back
heres a flag/report 👐
Already happened.
Or what?
If you want my like you're gonna have to give me a good SLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMMMMMMMIIIIIIINNNNN!!
+TopShotBR Lots of carbs right there.
Does Galactose ever compete with Silver Surfertose in your body?
I see what you did there!
Silver surfertose is busy finding other planets for galactose so he can give them all diabetes lol
If someone could combine the content (and regularity) of Sci Show with the graphics (and narrator) from Kurgzegast - then that would be pretty much the ultimate channel.
That would be amazing
+Dorient Francois Nah Vsauce gets irrelevant very fast. That's why I unsubscribed.
Ye
Scigesagt?? Ill sign up for that :)
It's sooo funny to read this as a German 😂😂😂
Is butter a carb?
Don't hit me, Mean Girls reference 🙈
No.
Ahh I remember, that was hilarious.
She doesn't even go here!
Its a magicarb, you need Pokeballs to catch it.
Shut up! *I didn't say anything*
I'd really like to see a 2nd part to this episode that delves more into Ketosis/the high fat, low carb diet and the voracity it has (if any) as a long or short term diet.
Loving the food videos these days, there are so many misconceptions about nutrition, and we desperately need allot of shit cleared up. Keep up the great work!
*clicks on video to learn about how to avoid bad carbs.. greeted with an ice cream ad.
Well played, Häagen-Dazs.. well played.
Food related videos? I love it!
I’ve been going to college again after 7 years. I’ve taken a few biology classes at Utah State University and I find these topics a lot more interesting now that I understand more of the complicated science behind the topics!
I love this quick intro to nutrition science basics! I'd love to see more videos about diet science. I think some diets avoid "typical" carbohydrates (sugar, bread) and say it allows for smoother blood sugar regulation. As far as I know, that's totally valid! It would be cool to go through a handful of common diet claims and do a busted/plausible/confirmed type of analysis. Thanks for the video! =)
That's why we all gotta go plant based!!! #80% carbs
Animal fats are muuuch more calorically dense than carbs from plant sources!
fats=9 calories per gram
carbs=4 calories per gram (+plus fiber and water in plants)
essentially you can and should eat as many natural carbs as you want without worrying about getting fat!!
Fuck off vegan i don't want to eat weeds and plants
+Scouting Bushcraft no one's making you eat anything bro. Plus, unless you only ever eat meat, eggs and milk, you still eat plants.
Go the middle way and just eat a lot of proteins. Especially chicken.
+Sebbo V that is vastly over simplifying
Hank, this video was far too short. It was extremely interesting. I would love to learn more and more about digestion. It started getting really amazing at bile salts, please do more on digestion.
Excellent video guys!
THANK YOU HANK!!! i'm so tired of explaining this to my parents hahaha now i can just point them to this video for all the explanations :)
So does it get me gains or not bro
yess
+Brianna U. Thanks bro Can I inject the carb right into my blood stream
A carb-lobotomy seems like the way to go
+Lord of Banana thanks for the tip broski
They get you all kinds of gains. All kinds!
mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell
So much info thank you
As a bro who frequently works out yet loves science, these videos are awesome!! keep them coming
Can you do one on cerebral aneurysms? I had one rupture at 19 and would love to learn more!
That would be really interesting. What happened when you had yours?
you might want to learn stuff about it before they make a video about it if you had an aneurysm
You ask this one a lot. You know they do a QQ section, right?
* cough * Patreon * cough *
At least remove the redundant blank space between the "?" and the "I" if you are copy-pasting this under every video.
You could also answer to some of your replies you lazy clodpole.
Carbohydrates are not the enemy. We need at least one of them: glucose. It is the universal energy for organisms. They're not so bad as long as they are consumed with other nutrients, such as fibre, which lowers absorption of them.
SciShow needs to do a video on dietary fibre.
Fiber IS a carbohydrate as well
@@Seanonyoutube Dietary fibre includes certain carbohydrates, but is not exclusively a carbohydrate. It is defined as plant components not broken down by human digestive enzymes and includes lignin and resistant starch, neither of which are carbohydrates.
@@Ngamotu83 isn't there like different types of carbs, slow, simple, and refined? The first 2 are alright but the refined carbs are the issue because it's processed and it's not good since...yeah
@@Ngamotu83 also 5 years god damn
Finally! THANK YOU!
I kinda wish this were made into a 20 minute video instead. There's so much more I'd like to know about this from the wonderful voice of Hank Green
So you explained the chemical make up of carbohydrates quite well. Yet you said nothing on how the human body regulates energy storage and utilization. Yet energy storage and utilization is absolutely crucial to what makes for a healthful diet or not. Energy storage and utilization is regulated by the endocrine system...your hormones. Insulin is the only hormone that tells your body to burn sugar and store fat. All your other hormones tells your body to burn fat as fuel. So lowering your carbohydrate intake (to 20 grams or less per day) lowers your insulin levels. This causes your body's other hormone levels to go up, allowing you to enter into fat-burning mode, which is known as ketosis. Ketosis because your liver converts fat into ketones, which are water soluble and can thus enter the blood directly, unlike fatty acids. On top of that, carbohtdrates are 100% non-essential. Your body only needs about 100 grams ish a day? We can get that amount from protein, and can store upto 5x that amount in our body anyway. Humans can go their entire lives without a single bite of pure carbohydrate and be perfectly happy and healthy. The same cannot be said of fat. Stop eating fat completely, and YOU WILL DIE. It is absolutely crucial for life. Your brain is 2/3rds fat and 1/5 cholesterol, your lungs & nerves are coated in fat, your hormones are made out of cholesterol, all of your cell membranes are made out of half fat and half cholesterol. Humans are built out of fat, not carbohydrates...and that's why we can store an unlimited amount of fat. If it were the enemy, why can we store it in unlimited amounts? If carbs were so crucial, why can we store so little of it? That doesn't make much sense.
Ayyy bruh, all I need to know is that carbs=gains.
Thanks a lot for this video, you explained it very well. This is what we should be learning in school!
+Oskar Göcmen I don't think you get the concept of exaggeration.
No, no, everyone learns the same thing. It's just that his video explained it better than many class teachers.
Good video and great job talking sense about a subject that many people are hysterical about and tend to ignore the science almost completely. However, I do have one nit-pick: carbohydrates are not a "macronutrient that you need to live."
Unlike essential nutrients such as the essential amino acids and the omega fatty acids, carbohydrates need not be consumed in the diet. Yes, one's brain does need glucose but after an adaptation period, it can derive as much as 75% of its energy needs from ketone bodies created from fat metabolism. Glucose is required for the remaining 25% but it can be produced in the liver via gluconeognensis from glycerol (a byproduct of fat metabolism) or from certain amino acids (alanine, glutamine, etc.). So while a small amount is required, it can be produced by the body and is therefore not an essential nutrient (which must be consumed in the diet).
That said, it would be difficult to imagine a diet, with the possible exception of complete starvation, that did not include at least a small amount of carbohydrates. Also, at least some carbohydrates in the forms of soluble and insoluble fiber, plus probably some digestible carbohydrate, would be included in an optimal diet.
I've been doing a lot of research on nutrition recently for a project. If you'd like to learn more about carbohydrates here is a link from the Institute of Medicine that sums up all of the citations in the description (It's an easier read): www.nap.edu/read/10490/chapter/8
carbs aren't bad, but the amounts we are eating them is. When we evolved there wasn't anything that contained as much starch and Sugar than nowadays meals. Even cereal and fruits didnÄt contain as much carbs than todays, i am not even talking about Sugar.
We were eating carbs more 3,000 years ago than today.
We're eating FAR less carbs than we used to, and eating FAR more oils and fats than we used to.
+UltraJordanGaming Cite source, please. Virtually every caloric drink we drink gets those calories from carbs. Cereals (in the grain sense, rather than the Frosted Flakes sense) are the basis for many "staples" across cultures. A bigmac meal at McDonald's is almost entirely carbs. Protein in the beef, fat in the cheese and oils. The rest is pretty much all carbs.
+Living Lifeform that's what I said we did eat carbs and we also ate a lot of grain, but the grain didn't contain half as much starch. As well as the fruits weren't as sweet. I study molecular Biology, I am quite sure about the breeding of cereals. And as I said there wasn't any sugar.
I was part of a group in my small group communications class and we had to all pick a topic and each do a presentation on something from that topic. My group chose Nutrition and we had Vitamins, Water, Protein, and I picked Carbs. I had fun talking about the bad and following it up with the good making carbs seem like an anti-hero of Nutrition while the other 3 were the traditional good guys.
Nice explanation
I'm on the all carb diet baby
With no fat in your diet you will become very depressed. When this happens just go back to meat, it will still be there for you. You will feel lots better. And it is cheaper than anti depressants.
@@danielmcgillis270 There are plants with fat as well
CARB THE FUUUUCK UP
where my high carb low fat vegans???? y'all here/???
No I like meat
+BryanAndProud Here!!
Have fun with your incomplete fad diet, lol
+BryanAndProud yaaaas hclf power
This one's a keeper.
Galactose sounds like an alien super villain that'll eat you if you don't drink your milk.
Nutrition isn't one-size-fits-all. If you feel good and your blood tests are normal, you are eating right.
0:54 how is that a carbohydrate if there is no carbon?
There is no C written there in the middle because we know there are carbon atoms there
You've gotta be kidding me, there's a carbon at the end of each internal line segment
And its a easier way of drawing a carbohydrate chain
it's the skeletal structure that scientists use because they are too lazy to add the carbon
every edge is an carbon atom.
I feel like I should be taking notes on this
This dude always reminds me of Professor Frink from the Simpsons.
Any diabetics out there who already knew everything in the video?
Not diabetic. :/
Not diabetic, but hypoglycemic. Still already knew all this.
Not diabetic, not anything, just payed attention in school so i know this
On my way to being Pre-diabetic and on a low carb diet! lol
Quick question. Why do high carb meals make me tired and really hungry an hour or two later and high fat meals don't?
If you are eating processed carbs or white rice/ white bread etc, your insulin spikes and you feel tired. However, they are digested quickly and that is why you feel hungry faster. You can fix this by eating non-processed whole grain products, which have tons of fiber or by eating green vegetables and fruits.
Ugh, you might develop Diabetes :/
Hmmm, thats really interesting; Ask ur locale doctor if you need to know asap
Yes I get it mostly from bread pasta and potatoes don't really eat much rice tho.
+Phillip Morrison carbohydrates increase your metabolic rate also high fibre foods like the ones mentioned digest quickly and carbohydrates for that matter, so your stomach gets empty more quickly. As for tiredness and fatigue I agree with the comments above, however I think if you ate high carbohydrate more regularly you would become more tolerant to it.
as i sit here eating ice cream out of the container
Can you do a video on metabolism enco/ectomorph body types and diet suggestions?
But if you are a diabetic carbs are not you friend, when you're a type two diabetes person lower carb intake keep blood sugars down.., what your views on that
Eating carbs from plant foods only with no animal product has been shown to manage and even cure type 2 diabetes
+William “will” Shanks , I then to stay away from breads starchs and refined sugar, but you have to watch some fruits and vegetables..
Will Adam Refined carbs like sugar, and some breads are the true evils
+William “will” Shanks its the starches that are the true evil ones, potatoes, baked, are the worst, pastas,breads, they all are starches and the body converts them to sugar..spikes blood levels ..natural item some fruits like cherry are the same, apples are good..
Will Adam There's nothing wrong with starches. There's nothing wrong with potatoes. You can only be worried about blood sugar spikes when you are diabetic. But there are many pastas and breads that are bad for us.
Im still sticking to my low carb diet. It works, i don't need to poop.
That explains why I haven't pooped as much when I started the low Carb diet. I thought my body was killing itself xP
implying pooping is a bad thing
tfw idk if they're vegan or paleo.
But pooping feels good. It's satisfying.
Woah woah: think about it: you eat more or less, 3 meals a day; so would it not make sense that you poop 3 times a day? (Well actually once a day is good 'nough coz it takes 3-7 hours to digest food, and we can 'hold' the poop with our sphincters)
clear as mud!
Thanks
The vegans are coming...
The people warning about the other people in the comments are coming. Also, there are vegans (like me) who watch every scishow episode. We're not some army. O_o
+Diana, the Inorganic Vegan As long as you are not the stereotypical vegan whom likes to lecture people whenever talking get about food then you are a OK in my book :-)
Joe Digger
ok. :D
like sebbo V, whos just spamming chat now with the same shit >_>
dont be that person, otherwise, cheers m8
The most annoying ones are the ones with Vegan in their name
you need carbs but you don't need cholesterol. your body makes that independently
SciShow you must excuse my ridiculous mind because I thought the title of this video read "How to deal with 'Crabs'" Lmoa
here's hoping to seeing you with dylan brogan on beer and board games hank! :D
It's misleading when you said "we need carbohydrates to live." Yes, but we do not need to EAT carbohydrates to live. Our body is perfectly capable of manufacturing them from fat.
nvshd It's also incredibly inefficient to do so, and is terrible for performance.
Low carb. High fat and protein.
You work for the dairy and meat industry?
Regardless of where he works, he's got a point.
Although it would depend on how is your metabolism, how fat you are and what you intend to do - lose fat, gain muscle, train endurance, maintain weight.....
The fatter you are, the more insulin resistant you are, therefore you should avoid carbs as much as possible, except for those foods high in nutrients which also happen to have a few carbs in them - in essence, avoid "empty carbs" at all cost. Also, avoid sugars and other high-glycemic index carbs.
If you're thin and want to put on some weight, you should eat plenty of carbs, although you should still avoid sugars and other high-glycemic index carbs, except after waking up and after heavy exercise (the times in which eating sugars won't cause an insulin spike, because your muscles are craving for glucose).
So, in essence, most people should reduce carbs, as long as they don't get into crazy diets based on meat and animal fat alone.
I eat so much bread I could consider as a Peasant, I started training my body to be able to reach military standards and loose 40 pound which put me a bit on the over weight side.
Im Glad to report that with all the Bread eating, Pasta eating etc.. I lost my 40 pounds goal in 3 months and I can Theoretically complete the physical test at the end of basic training for the Canadian army
I don't feel so bad for eating that entire pizza now.
Go vegan!! :)
no
no.
ok
I would rather be tortured for days than go vegan; it's less painful.
thank you but no. :) though I do enjoy a vegan meal every once in awhile.
We need carbohydrates to live? That is just misinformation, not to mention the fact for millions of years we survived on low carbohydrate diets. Our body is able to produce glucose via gluconeogenesis, and we can also create ketones to fuel our brain and hearts. While im not saying carbs are bad for you i am saying modern day diet is way too rich in carbs, and too low in fat.
Uh yes we do. Carbs, Lipids, Proteins, and Water are the four things we need the most in our diet, Carbs being the second most important of those as that is our energy source.
He isn't spreading misinformation, you are.
Xevious 1 Actually carbs are not an essential nutrient, our bodies are able to provide all the glucose we need from fat, and proteins via gluconeogenesis. Have u ever heard of a ketogenic diet, it is very low in carbs 20 grams a day or less. Your brain does not need carbohydrates, infact its preferred fuel is ketones which are created from fat. When you give your body carbs it triggers an insulin response, insulin is a fat storage hormone. Carbohydrates might be a fast source of energy for the body but fat is a much healthier source for fuel. You body will burn the carbs for fuel first however that does not mean the bodies preferred source of energy is carbohydrates, it is in fact fat. The current world wide obesity epidemic to due to overconsumption of carbohydrates.
The *biggest* reasons are because no one exercises and no one eats halfway decent food, namely out of sheer stupidity, but also laziness. I mean, you can blame the non-essential nutrients but that's the same as blaming the gun in a murder.
zanierrules Maybe it is a bit more complicated than that. Carbohydrates dont properly satiate us so people will eat until their stomachs are full to turn off the hunger signal in the brain. Fat however will send a chemical message to the brain which will satiate us while eating a much smaller volume of food. Maybe the reason we are lazy is because people are eating poorly and do not have energy, and are not hormonally balanced.
reading too many paleo bro-science blog posts?
Pure fructose is probably the best tasting thing I've ever eaten
LOL @ Hank "executive producer" 😂😅😂
He really doesn't explain things well and talks way too fast. If he's trying to encourage understanding of science, he's doing a preety bad job of it.
He is explains it well, but it is pretty fast.
Problem is that most people would never sit through an entire detailed lecture that goes beyond 4 minutes. And it's doubtful that the average idiot will understand anything after that.
The bottom line is the most important part. Which should be short and bring the point across.
If you want proper learning than you should get yourself an actual scientific textbook. Or watch a video of a university lecture. RUclips is not a science classroom.
The problem is you learn fairly little from this because it's gets too technical way too fast and he speaks way too fast. I'm all for being thorough, but he has to work within the limitations of the medium. Only explain as much you can in a 5 or 10 minute video, don't try to cram in more because you want to give a thorough explanation, he should leave that for another video which he can link to. The point is to make it accessible to the average person, not to shove a degree course into a 15 minute vid.
I don't know about ya all, but I use this type of show as a refresher for material I used to know in quite a bit more depth something like 30 years ago, but have had little chance to discus or use in the interim, so, alas, what imperfect understanding I used to have has mostly faded into the background. Quick, smart and informative shows like these are great for dusting off the cobwebs.
Lot's of misinformation in this one. Humans have zero need for dietary carbohydrates. Most of our tissue is happy to burn fatty acids, even the brain. And the small amount of glucose that actually IS needed can be easily made by your body from fat by a process called gluconeogenesis. Also, you can get all the fiber you need from leafy vegetables that have very low carbohydrate levels. So, again, no need for dietary carbs. Now you may like the taste of bread and sugar and other carbohydrates, and that's fine, but don't buy into the idea that you need carbohydrates for good health. You don't.
Blake Ashley wrong
What's your take on the Kato diet, which promotes eliminating carbs as an energy source and taking it from fats instead?
The last time I was this fast into a video, Keemstar was an alright dood
Um. Wow. Four minutes and thirty seconds and the most they discussed about the negative effects of too many carbohydrates is single sentence at the end. Considering the rising rates of diabetes in the United States you would think that there would be more than that one sentence.
+
+
What negative effects, that too many carbs makes you fat? Too many calories make you fat...not carbs specifically
The first sentence is "a lot of people think carbohydrates are the enemy."
You're trolling?
Nope. Aside from the opening sentence and the closing sentence they don't address the negative effects of excessive carbohydrate consumption. They acknowledge that people think that they are bad and they acknowledge that over consumption is bad but there is no substantive information given.
eating cocoa puffs while watching this video
life is good sometimes
its that or life giving me a hint to stop eating cereal at 7:40
I may have lost weight on a low-carb diet, but I wasn't enjoying it.
I'll restart with a little bit more carbs, and a lot more exercise. Thanks for this video, it gave me confidence to start over and do what makes me feel good :)
Keep the Dietary Science coming.. Do a show for each nutrient if possible 😆 big fan
I thought the title was 'The deal with cards' , and that thing the man was holding in the thumnail, I thought it was a stack of cards,
I just love chemistry, think I'm gonna take some classes just for fun.
Finally someone educating without selling the "New best totally tested and 100% safe fat burner"! Thanks for the great content
Watching this as I eat a full family sized pack of spaghetti.
Guess I'm not the only one who expected a video about tiny ten legged arthropods.
I like drinking Laxative tea to make a giant liquid poop geyser that feels of most refreshing and clean to expel.
I read the thumbnail as "How to deal with crabs".
time to make those sweet carb gains
Next video should be called "The Deal with Airline Food"
Yayyyyyy it's Hank
i read "the deal with crabs" and i was wondering when he was going to finally start talking about crabs until like the end of the video.
I was lost for the first half of the video; Initially having read, "The Deal with Crabs"
Hey guys! Banana's back with another diy video! Today we're going to galactate a cup of milk!
Do a video about ketogenesis and whether ketogenic diets are healthy or not. Please.
yes
This video made me hungry, I ended up making a sandwich while it was playing
with the naked man in the thumbnail, I thought it said "The Deal with Crabs"
This is like basic high school nutrition class +2
I read the picture as Crabs.
Is there a video about high fructose corn syrup and corn syrup? If not they should make one.
GOOD video.
if you are a bodybuilder, then these bad boys are your best friend... lol
This video was determinated
I read the title as 'Crabs'
I would love to see a video about Ketogenic diet.
I think it is refined carbohydrates that do the damage - sugar in everything that do the following (suprised this was missed out of the talk):
High glycemic load induces high insulin that stores the blood glucose and paradoxically leaves one hypoglycemic, not-full and ready to eat more.
Non-carb diets are more for rapid weight loss, hard to maintain as lots of traditional foodstuffs are carbohydrate based. Thankfully the British staple, the full English breakfast, can be modified slightly to be low-carbohydrate, high protien and high fat - leaving you full well past lunch.
I am out in the USA and had a stack of pancakes (heavy refined carbohydrates) with maple syrup - obviously this is unhealthy but I had 1500 calories from that and felt hungry within 2 hours. The same calories in a fatty full English leave you full for half a day.
Additionally, net-carbs (carbohydrate minus fibre) is what most dieters use these days, no need to stick up for fibre, no-one is saying you dont need it.
Hope Sci Show goes more into the science next time.
2 mins in and this comment will be buried
Three minutes in and I say hello
Three minutes in and I already came
I'm so childish I'm gettin tf out
15 minutes have passed. You have predicted wrong, good sir.
18 minutes!!!!
omg he is back yeeee
