I loved it when she gave her compliment about him not having a good mentor but yet he’s excellent in his field. Can see his face light up. She’s so genuine and that’s what I love about her
Nobody has distilled nutrition better than Naiman. The man is in a league of his own for simplicity and efficacy -- true marks of genius -- and his book is an undervalued masterpiece. It's kind of sad that here we are in the 21st century with skyscrapers and nuclear power and we have doctors and other supposed experts who are still trying to figure out what to eat. The industrialization of food and the monetization of medicine has not been kind to human progress. Thank you both for having the humility and integrity to be real doctors. 💪
Being diet agnostic and focusing on these principles has helped me shed weight and improve my lab values. The overconsumption of fat was hurting my goals. I appreciate both of you in helping me reframe my approach.
Debra, I'm agnostic as well (it took a lot of learning to get here), for me, it was the over consumption of low nutritional dense/low satiety carbs was hurting my goals.
I have to admit I’m not agnostic. I don’t try to eat extra fat. I let my body burn the fat on my body. But I’m not afraid of eating the fat that comes with my protein. I focus on eating animal protein because it’s hard for me to get in enough just eating 2 meals. And why am I only eating 2 meals? Because I’m not hungry for more. And that’s why I’m not agnostic. Glucose and Insulin goes up when I eat carbs. Not so when I eat protein with a bit of fat.
I am fatty meat lots of eggs and I feel absolutely amazing I cannot even imagine not having fat in my life. I went from a size 16 to a size 12 in four months. And because I gain weight everywhere and not just in one area seeing a total picture is difficult at times. I know that I will be down another size by Christmas. And again it’s not about weight loss for me it’s about feeling good in my 60s
Me too! I discovered carnivore 5 months ago, a stick of butter a day is making my arthritis go away! All this calorie/ fiber crap is backward in my book. I'm with you, I just left the Lyon team a critical review.
@@lifedestroyereating high fat and you will poop more than eating high fiber. In fact I would make the argument most here couldn't even handle a high fat diet They would get diarrhea instantly until their body was fat adapted
I was interested in how he said most of the labs are useless. I wasted a ton of money and time going through so many tests with GI docs for my digestive problems. I started eating high protein, cut my non fiber carbs and fat, and pretty much all of my digestive issues that were majorly affecting quality of life stopped. Also my hot flashes stopped. More and more of the issues are falling by the wayside as I continue. Diet can cause so many issues, all physicians should be highly trained in this area!
Progressive over load, up the protein and fiber with low low carb and fat , good sleep and water intake Steady state cardio You will get there Good work doc Both of you guys are very informative You both show it You guys look very fit Keep up the good work
Dr. Naiman is a trip! I'm on Wegovy and it's been life changing and if I get down because someone thinks I'm gonna die from it or that I have "ozempic face" all I have to do is listen to Dr. Lyon to know I am on the right track. And BTW there's no such thing as "ozempic face", everyone who loses weight, no matter how they did it has such changes. I'm 60 and I've been off and on losing and gaining the same 30-40 since I was in my early 20s. Wegovy, weight training and trying to get in no less than 6000 steps a day has worked for me!
No need for fiber. I eat completely animal based for the last 6 years and have never been healthier. Reversed all my conditions. I found how my body thrives. No carbs for me.
@@livia1174 I am animal based. Most days I eat grass fed grass finished beef and raw dairy products. During the summer I can eat a lil organic strawberries or wild blueberries
I am 64 years mom and have fibromyalgia for 34 years once i start doctor macdogall diet plan in three day my pan was totally disappeared and also after some time I reduced some weight -from Pakistan 🇵🇰 i am all my life obese so only watching only videos like this I walk all my life and eat small portions now i understand that for weight loss resestenc training is must i am still do my homework
Another great video by our beautiful, super smart, and entertaining Dr. Lyon. I make sure I watch every video of hers that I come across. I will look for more from our Ted Naiman now. Thank you, guys, for this awesome video!
@@MrFuchew I'm not that sure I would, especially if they were telling me to eat chicken breast and asparagus and do an hour of cross-fit, after prescribing chemicals and offering to remove 90% of my stomach, surgically.
Ive been on a low carb and high animal protein diet for a few years now . I experience Better mental clarity, more energy and far less cravings my meals are about 60-70% protein .
By grams though, not by kcal I imagine. In this video he suggests by 30% of your calories should be protein. which would be about 65% by grams for someone who eats lots of lean animal protein like a carnivore some carnivores.
@@markaguilera493 Here's the problem, it's all kind of BS when it comes to percentages simply because cooking anything with fat results in the fat melting, so even if you have something like 90/10 ground beef, unless you lick the pan you cooked it in dry, you won't get all the fat on the label, so take _all_ of this with a grain of salt. But, for the sake of argument, if you just eat meat for a meal, every gram of protein is 4 kcal, every gram of fat is 9 kcal, So 100g of protein and 100g of fat in a huge meal is 1300 calories, 400 are protein, 900 are fat, so that's 30% of your calories from protein which is what Dr. Naiman suggests as a starting point. This example is a 1:1 ratio of grams of protein : grams of "energy" (Fat + net Carbs), which is what Dr. Naiman suggests for people who are happy with their body fat percentage. He wrote an entire book on it called the P:E Diet which is an interesting read (but sucks to read on a phone via Kindle, much better on a laptop or iPad). If you are trying to lose weight Naiman suggests changing that ratio to favor _more_ protein (thus lowering fat/carbs). So let's say instead you eat 120g or protein and 80g of fat, that's 1200 calories (down from 1300), but protein now makes up 480 calories, so its' up to 40%. The idea is the extra protein helps you with satiety and fills you up, and it helps build muscle. He also "caps" the daily protein at what your ideal weight is for your height (which might be a bit lower than you think). This is more to make sure you don't overeat than saying there is a problem with protein. So let's just say a person is overweight and out of shape and their ideal weight is 175 lb but are at 230 lb. That person would start with 175g of protein needed for the day (probably split between two meals on a 16/8 hour eating cycle), and as long as they ate under 175g of Fat + Net Carbs, they will be fine with his systems and you will lose body fat while maintaining or building muscle...you have to remember that like 90% of the population is under-muscled do to the fact that so few people eat even close to enough protein, so changes are a guy who is 55lb over weight needs to gain some muscle as they recomp. As we saw from the first paragraph, this means that at it's absolute lowest, Protein will always be at least 30% of calories, but if you have significant weight to lose, bumping that to 40% or more is fine...and that's assuming you are eating just Protein and Fat for simple math. If you are eating Fat + Carbs, you might get as high as 50% protein...but the danger is, it's very easy to overeat when you include processed carbs.
Coming off a 5 year dogmatic keto journey, Glad I found you guys. Always exercised, I’m lowering my fat, raising my carbs and protein. Thank you so much....
@larryputra3692 basically I changed my macros, my carb are still low, I lowered my fats and increased my proteins to 1 gram per pound of desired body weight. Linda a lean and greens diet. I am noticing a real change in my body composition. At 65, I’m more cut than at 35….
@@kathynewkirk683 How can you stand it? I'm so freaking hungry trying to eat like that! I also eat 1g per pound of desired body weight (125-130 for me), but if my fat isn't 100g, I'm a binge looking for a place to happen. I don't eat plants because of autoimmune. I just can't be hungry. I worked too hard to kick my carb addiction. Protein and fat were what kicked it for me. I weigh 125 pounds, 59 years old, not very active. Just some walks and light weights.
Women especially need to consider fats more seriously than he seems to. Hormones need the fatty acid and cholesterol, so animal fats are really important.
Ted Naiman crushes it! His explanations are simple straightforward, unapologetic and science-based qualified by decades of direct clinical experience. Open-minded, curious and willing to consider all view points. Best interview with valuable, actionable information. 💪
Teflon, He doesn't seem very open minded about saturated fats, which is the myth that started this whole dietary disaster. If he was open minded he would be saying 'I don't really know' when is comes to sat fats. I, who never has done any lab work, can say I don't REALLY know but have changed to a moderately high satfat diet (at age 74) have reversed stage 3 CKD, overcome arthritis in my thumb, added 10 pounds of muscle, have energy to burn and much more. I feel like I did at 40 cuz I don't run away from satfats. I feel each to their own but know that what works for them may be a disaster to you or me. To believe them is to just take what they say on authority and is not actual fact. I do agree with Ted in one way - Try stuff and see what works. long life and blessing to you.
@@terrytannatt2656 Sounds like 70+ is the new 40+! That's an impressive journey requiring dedication, consistency and personal conviction to view conventional medical care with skepticism and question the decades of misguided nutrition advice around staying lowfat and high carb. Congratulations on putting in the work to figure out what works for you to become healthier, stronger and more energetic. What a positive example for others 💪
@@TeflonBubba Thank you for one of the most positive & encouraging replies I've ever received. I don't want to sound sappy but it kinda moisented my eyes. The best to you.
I'm so grateful for your advice. I told my parents about your research on dietary protein and it's relationship with glycemic control. They applied for 1 year They are free from all the pre diabetic and hypertention medication So thankful. Keep up the great work. 😊
I really gotta compliment the tattoo work on Doc Lyons. You can tell that it has been done specifically to accentuate her already incredible muscle! The lines are very flattering!
I’ve been carnivore since April to heal some issues that I’m tired of. One of them is lower G.I. Asthma and arthritic pain. I am probably 90% better. I very seldom eat fiber and very seldom eat vegetables and I don’t eat cheese because I know that’s my asthma trigger. I also can’t eat Mexican spices or pepper. I know that I can’t eat melted fat. The carnivore diet is the best way to eliminate everything and start fresh to see what is bothering you. Everybody is different and needs to tweak their diet according to how they feel. I went from using an inhaler three times a night to zero. I went from my hip hurting so bad I couldn’t walk to no taking daily walks. . And now my morning routine is much better. I don’t have to run to the bathroom and hope I make it which I suffered time for over 20 years. I don’t believe there is essential fiber or carbohydrates. I also found I did not need electrolytes. People crush electrolytes and I have never needed them. I did try some and I did feel good on it but after not having it I realized I didn’t even need it. My suggestion is to quit listening to all these people and their opinions and do what works for you. And I believe what works is Carnivore. I don’t believe you can eat too much protein. Your body will use what it needs and figure out the rest. I believe in eating too satiety and I do start my day like Kelly Hogan says by eating. A routine is very important for your body function
I think the need for electrolytes is when you flush the water out. That "I dropped 10 lbs in 2 days" effect from cutting the carbs. Once your steady you don't need to go crazy with it. I'm not convinced we need to eat carbs, but do believe exiting Ketosis fairly regularly is a good idea (that can be by eating a huge meal of protein) which also cuts down on the need for all the electrolytes. I also have realized Ted is right about fat, a lot of us on Carnivore way overdo it and don't loose weight like we want to. I too am highly skeptical of needing fiber, but I don't doubt Ted on the satiety aspects however if you're going to eat plants.
You lost me at, “humans don’t need saturated fat” I knew a woman who couldn’t get pregnant because she was low fat and when she added in more saturated fat, she finally got pregnant. I wonder what a babies IQ would be if the pregnant mother never ate saturated fat.
There are other types of fat other than saturated fat that don't have the same negative health effects. Your anecdote about someone you knew doesn't trump science I'm afraid. The body can make some saturated fats. Low fat and low saturated fat are not the same thing.
I think when anyone starts this journey, it's necessary to pick one camp (Low carb, Keto, carnivore, Paleo) and explore it completely. If nothing else it's starts the journey into knowledge about just how complex it all is. Once you can master one diet, you can begin to incorporate other aspects because you'll have that base understanding of what each one does. Simply cutting calories doesn't work, but you won't understand that until you learn how everything works. I started out as low carb, then keto, then carnivore, now going back towards low carb. The difference is in the beginning I didn't know which carbs to keep and which to cut so I cut them all. Now I understand which carbs are beneficial. Great talk!
#ProteinLeverageHyphothesis The body pursues food until it gets enough protein. But they already know the 7 essential macros : _protein _fat _salt _potassium _magnesium _calcium _carbs I'm sure that's how it is. The order is important be ause where water goes, there go your electrolyte minerals. FYI. My hubby healed his infected wound with one week dose of Bactrim and 100 fatty meat. Took 4 weeks and had butter, bacon n eggs 7 days a week with 16/8 fasting. He has done it for the whole year now and has dropped 70lbs. Good luck to you n God bless!
Very insightful information on eating a good clean protein diet. I have personally ate this way for many years as a bodybuilder, so it's great to actually witness these types of discussions from experts. Loving the channel!
Hit the nail on the head with: “everyone is over fat and under muscled”. 💯 So right. And restoring the right body composition fixes almost all health concerns/disease. However; much of what he says contradicts what Dr Stacy Sims recommends for women-who should not fast, and not train fasted.
I have been a RD for 22yrs w/ a MS in Nutrition. Many RDs have been speaking about a well rounded diet of plenty of protein, healthy fats & complex carbs in appropriate ratios for a healthy lifestyle that includes wt bearing/wt training & cardio activity. Unfortunately, many MDs have sooo many "books" out on their theories backed by biased science to support X diet; atkins, keto, vegan, etc. I am so happy to see you speaking about "real" nutrition. In 2014 I ate a vegan diet for 6 months & never felt worse in my life. In addition, the push for non meat protein sources for the environment is ludicrous. Address China first then ask me to not eat a steak. Dr. Lyons, you speak eloquently about science & provide a non judgemental assessment and advice for the population. Listening to some providers and the language they use along with pushing their own agenda drives me nuts but unfortunately the public buys in. And, Gabriella - diabetes is a skeletal muscle, gut, liver, pancreatic, adiposity tissue & brain disease. I love that you note you have never had a HgbA1c under 5. I tried not to laugh at that bio marker goal. Liked info on HDL, TRIG, AST, ALT, etc. Thank you for your dedication to your field. Last, Ted notes the need to be in a kcal deficit from exercise & food but how can people do that if they don't know how many kcals they should be consuming; considering he doesn't give kcal goals. I do note that most calculations for kcal needs is faulty. I would love to hear what you do to advise your patients on total intake. My patients do want to track their macros but you need total kcal to start.
And you need to meet and exceed macros for muscle gain. It’s a delicate balance. I track macros, apply the appropriate training, sleep, and it’s challenging to put on muscle.
Alright I am a physician. I have played with Keto, Carnivore, Paleo, Mediterranean....I am back to P:E RATIO DIET. Ted I think you win. Especially for athletes. I got sick with all my workouts and no carbs. Thanks for your work.
This was a great podcast! I have been following both of you for a while and more people need to be educated. Please keep up these great podcasts. My deepest respect to you both🙏
As a 64-year-old female with a past of DVT and having no hormones to a hysterectomy with my ovaries left I have found that I gained that in areas I had never had before. Especially my lower belly just above my groin. I have lost about 25 pounds in the last six months but this area is so stubborn and the last to go. I’m not giving up I know that it will go.
@@carolinemarie44 wow that’s awesome. I wish I had found it sooner. I did keto for years but never really healed my issues. Plus I went off the woe too much. I stay on track and feel so much better eating this way.
I really like how Dr Ted Naiman cuts through all of the dogma and confusion. And sees how things work with his own clients. The way he simplifies and articulates complex concepts is amazing.
I have learned so much from listening to both of you. I am grateful. Dr. Naiman turned me from essentially a low carb high fat diet to his suggestions of protein to energy. Not only is eating much more enjoyable due to much greater variety, but pushing 63, I am showing vascularity in my abdomen. Painlessly I might add. Thank you both so much!
@@markaguilera493 Every meal starts with a good source of protein. I don't count any more. I eat uniformly. Minimally, I'm over 200 grams at approximately 182 pounds currently.
@@TheMJT515 As Dr. Naiman recommends. Strawberries a cup or two daily, or cherries in the same amount. Mixed berries. Broccoli, asparagus, spinach, avocado. Occasionally if eating at a restaurant, a small amount of carrots. Just follow the PE diet recommendations. Listen to the docs interviews. Don't get extreme. I also eat beef a couple of times a week and 3 whole eggs daily.
I enjoyed the simplicity of his advice. In summary… Weight loss resistance- you need 30 mins of moderate cardio everyday or 1 hr of light cardio, down 500 cals (50% from diet (but not protein or fiber), 50% from exercise). Best weightloss drugs are those that increase satiation. If your waistline measurement is higher than have your height you are in some kind of trouble. Worthwhile labs - Fasting Triglycerides (under 100, A1C (under 5), HDL (over 50).
I think this doctor hit it spot on when he said you have to take a little from everything. When you go hardcore one way is where it gets detrimental. A body is a complex mechanism and one way is not always the right way for everyone.
Humans never ate grains, and Monsanto’s vegetables…for over the past 50yers pharmaceutical and FDA CARTEL FIGURE OUT HIW ]TO KILL PEOPLE SLOWLY WHILE STEALING THEIR WEALTH TROUGH FAKE MEDICAL TYRANNY.. RESULTS IS AMERICANS ARE SICKER THN EVER . THEY NEVER CURE ANYONE AND WESTERN DIET EXPANDED TROUGH THE WORLD , FOLLOWED BY SAME ILLNESS AFFECTING THE WHOLE WORLD ..ONLY ISLAND THAT DONT EAT WESTERN DIET ARE HEALTHY
I too tried every diet out of desperation to lose weight and nothing worked.. no one ever said just increase your protein … I also was carnivore for a month with no success and thought I was eating good Amt protein but when I really counted it was so low since I couldn’t eat a lot of the fatty meat they recommend.. I also was miserable on them.. now I’m increasing protein and eating all food groups and feel so much better and happier and never hungry 😃 he’s a lifesaver
I absolutely LOVE your podcast, & this 1 is amazing. The information you share is so imperative TODAY. Dr. Newman is Histetical! LOVE his approach, attitude. & knowledge. Thank for all you guys do to educate us in practice ways so we can actually understand & apply in our life our work. ❤❤❤
I love this guy! So humble and open minded. I’ve followed Dr Furhman and McDougall for nearly 18 years. I just can never get satiated no matter how many beans, lentils,, tofu, hemp seeds, ect. I want to stave off heart disease, cancer, dementia, ect and ‘live until I die’. Nutrition world is so dogmatic and would love to hear a civil debate. I also welcome input from those who may have been in my position. Anyone switch to Dr Lyon’s approach from a WFPB diet? I just found her and am so interested.
Eat less calories. Eat low fat. Limit saturated fat. Exercise lots and lots, especially really intense cardio. Don't even bother trying to lose weight if you don't do at least a half hour of exercise a day. Thanks, but I'll stick with my high-saturated-fat carnivore diet and non-cardio exercise.
I live 20 minutes from the HOH Rainforest in Wa State. I was walking in the rain yesterday and noticing how bundled up everyone was but me. I have on a t-shirt and yes was getting rain wet but I was toasty warm. I have been weight training 6 months and eating 180 grams of protein everyday or as close to it as I can get. I have added a good amount of Muscle weight and thinking maybe this added muscle is some how keeping me warm during these cold walks ? I am 58 and male 6'1" 268 pounds belly boy trying to lose the fat and build muscle.
Thanks Dr. Lyon❤ I did not know how important dietary protein and skeletal muscles are until I heard you spoke in one of the interviews. I’ve been a big fan since. You’ve definitely changed my eating habits to focus on protein intake at each meal, and incorporating weight training. I rarely make comments on RUclips but I have learned sooooo much from this interview from you and Dr. Naiman. Big thanks for sharing this valuable information and knowledge from your practices. I love the passion you have for muscle-centric medicine. I love the part when Dr. Naiman talked about his progression in ditching those meaningless lab work. It’s wonderful and music to my ears - I enjoyed this episode so much!! Please keep up the great work!!! ❤
For those who are afraid of protein , here is something to think about What is the biggest organ in the body ( yes you are right ! Muscles ) you feed it with protein with progressive over load then it will work for you by clearing blood sugar
I meet and many times exceed my protein macros and apply progressive overload to a consistent training routine. I’ve been stagnant with muscle hypertrophy and many say it’s because I’m not consuming enough carbs. It’s challenging to meet them on a regular basis.
So I really enjoyed this video. I looked up Dr. Naiman and was disappointed to find he did residency right here in SC but is now in WA! Thank you for the great information. I will be looking for both of your books.
Dr. McDougall was amazing for me while heavy workouts and weight training. I looked fantastic and felt great… was on it from 2002- 2020 and went off during COVID. I’m going to go back to it because meat doesn’t work for me but it’s good for many other people.
Wow this talk is so helpful!I've been completely convinced of the superiority of following a carnivore diet for over 2 years but in adopting a higher fat carnivore diet. I've done nothing but gain weight and get confused by It!! On the surface I may look super foolish but listening to influencers and other doctors as well it seemed to be the right way to eat for optimal health! My body has shown me that this WOE does not work for me. I love the information in this video and I appreciate both of you sharing your knowledge and wisdom with us! God Bless and Happy Easter!!
@@LauraWhy, from what I’m learning, a high fat carnivore diet can absolutely make you gain weight. Try lowering the fat. Check out Maria Emmerich and protein sparing modified fasting (PSMF).
Same here. It’s just too easy to eat tons of calories. I went crazy eating tons of pork belly and fattest cut of meat, I loved it but I gained 4 kg in 4 months and I realized it doesn’t work for me. I also couldn’t sleep. That was a no go for me.
I’m confused by Dr. Ted saying you don’t need saturated fat. I’m assuming it’s still true that the body DOES need fat but that he’s saying it doesn’t have to be saturated? So that leaves polyunsaturated and monounsaturated? So I’m thinking pork and olive oil? I’m hoping he’s not referring to polyunsaturated seed oils which I’ve heard are pro-inflammatory and actually bad for heart health. Unless this is not true? Also, if the nitrogen isotope tests from the fields of archaeology and anthropology are true, then we’ve been eating fatty meats for 300,000 to arguably 3 million yrs. I believe that would include saturated fats in those fatty meats. How then is this suddenly contraindicated in the modern diet? Especially since us modern humans are not that biologically different from our recent ancestors?
What were our ancestors doing physically? Were they sitting most of the day, inside not working outside? comparing our ancestors bodies to today is comparing apples to something very different from apples. The water was much cleaner, the soil was much healthier, air, What was available to eat was much healthier as well. Correct? makes sense. So how can humans of today be compared to humans of 200 years ago let alone 6000 years ago.
I love this, have been training nearly 25 yrs now, love seafood. My son, as a treat, doesn’t like Mac Donald’s, he loves to go to bobs seafood stall with me as we live near the sea x
People kept saying it’s all insulin and not eating carbs is only way.. I kept questioning how do people on weight watchers or low fat lose weight then🤷♀️.. now I understand it’s all about protein
What are your thoughts of drinking black tea (unsweetened), green tea (unsweetened), black coffee (unsweetened), water during the 16hour fast time? I thought that Dr Satchin Panda on the circadian rhythm suggested drinking water only during fast time. Thanks for answering 🙂
The shotgun approach to bloodwork Ted mentions speaks to a larger issue with how the heath industry is monetized at this point. People go away to a weekend course and comeback calling themselves a "Nutrition Coach", they get their "clients" to pay for a crapload of tests and then they espouse some cookie cutter wisdom that the learned from the company that gave them the weekend certification. As a result many "coaches" are trying to make health and fitness _so_ much more complicated than it needs to be, which is why I appreciate Dr. Naiman's book. If you are out of shape, eat more protein than fat, eat to satiety and exercise for 30 minute a day, lather, rinse, repeat. Easy peasy If more people took that money they'd spend on tests to buy themselves a nice ribeye, they'd be a lot happier. ;)
I have thought of that idea as well. For example you for example you get a blood test. The results indicate x so you eat to deal with x. less simple carbs, less sugars. Or go straight to the treatment irregardless of testing. Your body just cares what food it's using.
I don’t mind people embracing certain carbohydrates. But I definitely would never suggest them for somebody who has metabolic issues and needs to lose a lot of weight and get their insulin in order
Ted you’re a rock star! Keep up the great work! Gabrielle you are doing amazing work! You two are my favorites. I hope to see you both on this podcast together again many times!
I thought I was going to have to listen to a whole hour of this to learn about what I should eat, but then I completely forgot about the diet piece since not much was mentioned. Still, this was a great episode! I love that he mentioned the fact that he has been wrong many times because you can see that he really has the experience and knows what he’s talking about. I learned a lot from Ted and would love, love to learn more!! Thank you for having him on your podcast! 🫶🏻
Does Semiglutide work against body recomposition? Meaning does it inhibit muscle growth when high protein intake and progressive weight training are used? Many users look skinny / fat and I wonder about the long term effects on metabolism. Thanks in advance!
Thank you! I would like to know what you think of the Randall Cycle ( Bart Kay) specifically about the supposition that when any carb arrives at the mitochondria with fat, the mitochondria shut down depriving you of energy and the fats and sugars get stored? Thank you.
Like it was easy to get more lean muscle or a1c under 5. I'm 6ft tall 180 pounds, still over weight, a1c down to 5.5 from 14.5.... I fast 16 to 21 hours everyday, triglycerides are within range, HDL is excellent and LDL substantially higher than my doctor would be happy with. I feel very well, walk / cycle 10+ hours a week and yet this doctor made me feel I'm not doing enough.
Thank you for tuning in! I'm sorry it felt discouraging for you. Our intention was have a transparent conversation on what we see in our clinics. Keep up the good work!
@@DrGabrielleLyon I'm 3 yr carnivore, 150 lbs,always lean muscle,now all of a sudden getting loose skin please help me reverse this.your great and Dr Neiman ask him how to reverse it.
so complicated, and so many opinions. I’ve tried these methods plus others that were recommended to me with carnivore and all I do is gain and have muscle cramps. I’ve given it as much of a go as I can, my confidence in it is dashed. If it’s our species specific diet it shouldn’t be this complicated.
Hi Ellen, everyone is a bio individual when it comes to what foods make us feel our best. I encourage you to experiment with what foods work for you, and not try and follow all the latest trends out there. It's also great to consider what thrives in your area locally. Keep up the good work!
I can I cannot relate to this at all. I eat high fat carnivore and have lost 25 pounds. And as soon as I go off of that I start gaining weight. My so-called thin husband was 187 in March and is now 166 by not snacking and eating high meat and fat dinners. He just got through gaining 2 pounds and it’s because he started eating potato chips as a snack when he was out and about doing different things. He absolutely cannot have carbohydrates either. He eats no sugar we eat no vegetables very little fruit if any. We have both lost weight and feel great eating carnivore
I think it´s ridiculous that there still isn´t consensus on things like ¨fiber¨. One camp says it´s one of the worst things for our intestines/colon, while others push it. So sick of the opposing views in the keto and carnivore communities. Love Ted Naiman for most of the knowledge I´ve used to lose weight and get healthy, though..He´s one of the few that is against people guzzling fat and putting it on everything they eat. He´s more reasonable about macros, in general.
Hi Dr Lyon. I am In the beginning of my journey once again. I keep failing at everything else because I think as you stated 2:54 I need more protein. Not sure if it’s okay if I should still aim for 1gm of protein per pound of idea body weight if I am stage 3A chronic kidney disease? Please guide me as I don’t know which way go with that. I have 80lbs to lose. Will i further damage my kidneys? Am I safe to eat that much protein? I’m 240 female and 5’4”. I would like to be 135-145lbs
Absolutely LOVE Your work, research, & education fie rhe masses tgat are applicable. Do you plan ti address womens hormones, & thyroid, even cortisol adrenals? To be educated before going to Dr. I FEEL is a great place to be. Educated pt & questions. Thank you! ❤
Wow, great podcast. I will have to listen to more of you. I guess I found you though listening to Huberman and Layne Norton. So glad for the work you do
Good info, the only thing is the exercise recommendation if you are weight loss resistant. How does someone who is very overweight, has literally no cartilage in knees, fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue do intense exercise you recommend. I would be crippled.
Keto worked for me for many years as far as weight loss and maintenance. But as far as healing my issues it failed miserably. It wasn’t until I found carnivore this early spring that I have finally felt like I’ve got things under control
Dr. Lyon, could you do a show about ethnic/racial differences in labs and other objective measurements of metabolic health? I found that comment about variation in HDL amongst different ethnicities to be interesting, and as a south asian, would like to learn more about this topic.

Nobody has distilled nutrition better than Naiman. The man is in a league of his own for simplicity and efficacy -- true marks of genius -- and his book is an undervalued masterpiece.
It's kind of sad that here we are in the 21st century with skyscrapers and nuclear power and we have doctors and other supposed experts who are still trying to figure out what to eat. The industrialization of food and the monetization of medicine has not been kind to human progress. Thank you both for having the humility and integrity to be real doctors. 💪
Agreed dr bickman is awsome as well
The TRUTH shall set you FREE....
Being diet agnostic and focusing on these principles has helped me shed weight and improve my lab values. The overconsumption of fat was hurting my goals. I appreciate both of you in helping me reframe my approach.
Debra, I'm agnostic as well (it took a lot of learning to get here), for me, it was the over consumption of low nutritional dense/low satiety carbs was hurting my goals.
Same here
Love that, agnostic diet! Eat for health!
I have to admit I’m not agnostic. I don’t try to eat extra fat. I let my body burn the fat on my body. But I’m not afraid of eating the fat that comes with my protein. I focus on eating animal protein because it’s hard for me to get in enough just eating 2 meals. And why am I only eating 2 meals? Because I’m not hungry for more. And that’s why I’m not agnostic. Glucose and Insulin goes up when I eat carbs. Not so when I eat protein with a bit of fat.
my favourite people, love Ted, he converted me from keto to protein prioritization method, i feel much better weight and strength wise
Thank you so much for watching! Gabrielle
The same 👍
I am fatty meat lots of eggs and I feel absolutely amazing I cannot even imagine not having fat in my life. I went from a size 16 to a size 12 in four months. And because I gain weight everywhere and not just in one area seeing a total picture is difficult at times. I know that I will be down another size by Christmas. And again it’s not about weight loss for me it’s about feeling good in my 60s
Me too! I discovered carnivore 5 months ago, a stick of butter a day is making my arthritis go away! All this calorie/ fiber crap is backward in my book. I'm with you, I just left the Lyon team a critical review.
@@never2hard2startfresh just because it works for you doesn’t mean it’s going to work for everyone. No need to be critical just have an open mind
You have no problem pooping either?
Same. I cannot eat lower fat. I'm also carnivore.
@@lifedestroyereating high fat and you will poop more than eating high fiber. In fact I would make the argument most here couldn't even handle a high fat diet They would get diarrhea instantly until their body was fat adapted
I was interested in how he said most of the labs are useless. I wasted a ton of money and time going through so many tests with GI docs for my digestive problems. I started eating high protein, cut my non fiber carbs and fat, and pretty much all of my digestive issues that were majorly affecting quality of life stopped. Also my hot flashes stopped. More and more of the issues are falling by the wayside as I continue. Diet can cause so many issues, all physicians should be highly trained in this area!
Progressive over load, up the protein and fiber with low low carb and fat , good sleep and water intake
Steady state cardio
You will get there
Good work doc
Both of you guys are very informative
You both show it
You guys look very fit
Keep up the good work
Fibre is poison
I’d keep a watch on the “non essential” carbs.
Dr. Naiman is a trip! I'm on Wegovy and it's been life changing and if I get down because someone thinks I'm gonna die from it or that I have "ozempic face" all I have to do is listen to Dr. Lyon to know I am on the right track. And BTW there's no such thing as "ozempic face", everyone who loses weight, no matter how they did it has such changes. I'm 60 and I've been off and on losing and gaining the same 30-40 since I was in my early 20s. Wegovy, weight training and trying to get in no less than 6000 steps a day has worked for me!
No need for fiber. I eat completely animal based for the last 6 years and have never been healthier. Reversed all my conditions. I found how my body thrives. No carbs for me.
Never feeling cold?

Ted Naiman is the best. He is so logical and knowledgeable. I am inspired.
Another great video by our beautiful, super smart, and entertaining Dr. Lyon. I make sure I watch every video of hers that I come across. I will look for more from our Ted Naiman now. Thank you, guys, for this awesome video!
I honestly believe we as a society would be much healthier if all doctors were like these two doctors!
im convinced we would all go to the doctor more often if they all looked like these two
@@MrFuchew I'm not that sure I would, especially if they were telling me to eat chicken breast and asparagus and do an hour of cross-fit, after prescribing chemicals and offering to remove 90% of my stomach, surgically.
Most doctors are like most other professions…they do the minimum and sort of suck.
Got covid and I lost all respect for (and fired) my doctor.
@@MrFuchewlolo
You mean doctors that pitch products on social media?
I have found through personal experience that everything Doc Naiman has to say is always spot on. So many 'experts' want to complicate and confuse.
Ive been on a low carb and high animal protein diet for a few years now . I experience Better mental clarity, more energy and far less cravings my meals are about 60-70% protein .
By grams though, not by kcal I imagine. In this video he suggests by 30% of your calories should be protein. which would be about 65% by grams for someone who eats lots of lean animal protein like a carnivore some carnivores.
@@andrewshandle How much fat in %?
@@markaguilera493 Here's the problem, it's all kind of BS when it comes to percentages simply because cooking anything with fat results in the fat melting, so even if you have something like 90/10 ground beef, unless you lick the pan you cooked it in dry, you won't get all the fat on the label, so take _all_ of this with a grain of salt.
But, for the sake of argument, if you just eat meat for a meal, every gram of protein is 4 kcal, every gram of fat is 9 kcal, So 100g of protein and 100g of fat in a huge meal is 1300 calories, 400 are protein, 900 are fat, so that's 30% of your calories from protein which is what Dr. Naiman suggests as a starting point. This example is a 1:1 ratio of grams of protein : grams of "energy" (Fat + net Carbs), which is what Dr. Naiman suggests for people who are happy with their body fat percentage. He wrote an entire book on it called the P:E Diet which is an interesting read (but sucks to read on a phone via Kindle, much better on a laptop or iPad).
If you are trying to lose weight Naiman suggests changing that ratio to favor _more_ protein (thus lowering fat/carbs). So let's say instead you eat 120g or protein and 80g of fat, that's 1200 calories (down from 1300), but protein now makes up 480 calories, so its' up to 40%. The idea is the extra protein helps you with satiety and fills you up, and it helps build muscle.
He also "caps" the daily protein at what your ideal weight is for your height (which might be a bit lower than you think). This is more to make sure you don't overeat than saying there is a problem with protein. So let's just say a person is overweight and out of shape and their ideal weight is 175 lb but are at 230 lb. That person would start with 175g of protein needed for the day (probably split between two meals on a 16/8 hour eating cycle), and as long as they ate under 175g of Fat + Net Carbs, they will be fine with his systems and you will lose body fat while maintaining or building muscle...you have to remember that like 90% of the population is under-muscled do to the fact that so few people eat even close to enough protein, so changes are a guy who is 55lb over weight needs to gain some muscle as they recomp.
As we saw from the first paragraph, this means that at it's absolute lowest, Protein will always be at least 30% of calories, but if you have significant weight to lose, bumping that to 40% or more is fine...and that's assuming you are eating just Protein and Fat for simple math. If you are eating Fat + Carbs, you might get as high as 50% protein...but the danger is, it's very easy to overeat when you include processed carbs.
Coming off a 5 year dogmatic keto journey, Glad I found you guys. Always exercised, I’m lowering my fat, raising my carbs and protein. Thank you so much....
@larryputra3692 basically I changed my macros, my carb are still low, I lowered my fats and increased my proteins to 1 gram per pound of desired body weight. Linda a lean and greens diet. I am noticing a real change in my body composition. At 65, I’m more cut than at 35….
@@kathynewkirk683 How can you stand it? I'm so freaking hungry trying to eat like that! I also eat 1g per pound of desired body weight (125-130 for me), but if my fat isn't 100g, I'm a binge looking for a place to happen. I don't eat plants because of autoimmune. I just can't be hungry. I worked too hard to kick my carb addiction. Protein and fat were what kicked it for me. I weigh 125 pounds, 59 years old, not very active. Just some walks and light weights.
N=1 you have to figure out what works for you.
Women especially need to consider fats more seriously than he seems to. Hormones need the fatty acid and cholesterol, so animal fats are really important.
Ted Naiman crushes it! His explanations are simple straightforward, unapologetic and science-based qualified by decades of direct clinical experience. Open-minded, curious and willing to consider all view points. Best interview with valuable, actionable information. 💪
Teflon, He doesn't seem very open minded about saturated fats, which is the myth that started this whole dietary disaster. If he was open minded he would be saying 'I don't really know' when is comes to sat fats. I, who never has done any lab work, can say I don't REALLY know but have changed to a moderately high satfat diet (at age 74) have reversed stage 3 CKD, overcome arthritis in my thumb, added 10 pounds of muscle, have energy to burn and much more. I feel like I did at 40 cuz I don't run away from satfats. I feel each to their own but know that what works for them may be a disaster to you or me. To believe them is to just take what they say on authority and is not actual fact. I do agree with Ted in one way - Try stuff and see what works. long life and blessing to you.
@@terrytannatt2656 Sounds like 70+ is the new 40+! That's an impressive journey requiring dedication, consistency and personal conviction to view conventional medical care with skepticism and question the decades of misguided nutrition advice around staying lowfat and high carb.

I'm so grateful for your advice. I told my parents about your research on dietary protein and it's relationship with glycemic control.
They applied for 1 year
They are free from all the pre diabetic and hypertention medication
So thankful. Keep up the great work. 😊
wow thats great. my mom eats enough protein for a mouse and my dad is diabetic. they have no interest in this information
I really gotta compliment the tattoo work on Doc Lyons. You can tell that it has been done specifically to accentuate her already incredible muscle! The lines are very flattering!
I’ve been carnivore since April to heal some issues that I’m tired of. One of them is lower G.I. Asthma and arthritic pain. I am probably 90% better. I very seldom eat fiber and very seldom eat vegetables and I don’t eat cheese because I know that’s my asthma trigger. I also can’t eat Mexican spices or pepper. I know that I can’t eat melted fat. The carnivore diet is the best way to eliminate everything and start fresh to see what is bothering you. Everybody is different and needs to tweak their diet according to how they feel. I went from using an inhaler three times a night to zero. I went from my hip hurting so bad I couldn’t walk to no taking daily walks. . And now my morning routine is much better. I don’t have to run to the bathroom and hope I make it which I suffered time for over 20 years. I don’t believe there is essential fiber or carbohydrates. I also found I did not need electrolytes. People crush electrolytes and I have never needed them. I did try some and I did feel good on it but after not having it I realized I didn’t even need it. My suggestion is to quit listening to all these people and their opinions and do what works for you. And I believe what works is Carnivore. I don’t believe you can eat too much protein. Your body will use what it needs and figure out the rest. I believe in eating too satiety and I do start my day like Kelly Hogan says by eating. A routine is very important for your body function
I think the need for electrolytes is when you flush the water out. That "I dropped 10 lbs in 2 days" effect from cutting the carbs. Once your steady you don't need to go crazy with it. I'm not convinced we need to eat carbs, but do believe exiting Ketosis fairly regularly is a good idea (that can be by eating a huge meal of protein) which also cuts down on the need for all the electrolytes. I also have realized Ted is right about fat, a lot of us on Carnivore way overdo it and don't loose weight like we want to. I too am highly skeptical of needing fiber, but I don't doubt Ted on the satiety aspects however if you're going to eat plants.
You lost me at, “humans don’t need saturated fat”
I knew a woman who couldn’t get pregnant because she was low fat and when she added in more saturated fat, she finally got pregnant.
I wonder what a babies IQ would be if the pregnant mother never ate saturated fat.
There are other types of fat other than saturated fat that don't have the same negative health effects. Your anecdote about someone you knew doesn't trump science I'm afraid. The body can make some saturated fats. Low fat and low saturated fat are not the same thing.
I think when anyone starts this journey, it's necessary to pick one camp (Low carb, Keto, carnivore, Paleo) and explore it completely. If nothing else it's starts the journey into knowledge about just how complex it all is. Once you can master one diet, you can begin to incorporate other aspects because you'll have that base understanding of what each one does. Simply cutting calories doesn't work, but you won't understand that until you learn how everything works. I started out as low carb, then keto, then carnivore, now going back towards low carb. The difference is in the beginning I didn't know which carbs to keep and which to cut so I cut them all. Now I understand which carbs are beneficial. Great talk!
#ProteinLeverageHyphothesis
The body pursues food until it gets enough protein. But they already know the 7 essential macros :
_protein
_fat
_salt
_potassium
_magnesium
_calcium
_carbs
I'm sure that's how it is. The order is important be ause where water goes, there go your electrolyte minerals. FYI. My hubby healed his infected wound with one week dose of Bactrim and 100 fatty meat. Took 4 weeks and had butter, bacon n eggs 7 days a week with 16/8 fasting. He has done it for the whole year now and has dropped 70lbs. Good luck to you n God bless!
@@rosalbadelriogarcia9598 carbs are NOT essential.

Thank you for listening!
@@DrGabrielleLyon Thank you !
Hit the nail on the head with: “everyone is over fat and under muscled”. 💯 So right. And restoring the right body composition fixes almost all health concerns/disease. However; much of what he says contradicts what Dr Stacy Sims recommends for women-who should not fast, and not train fasted.
I haven’t read her book but I hear it referenced a lot with the over 50 crowd.
Fasted lol Not train while fasting. I think is what you meant.
@@theoryof11 in a fasted state; same thing, same meaning. If you use “lol” it’s fascinating you’re aiming to correct someone’s grammar. 😂
I have been a RD for 22yrs w/ a MS in Nutrition. Many RDs have been speaking about a well rounded diet of plenty of protein, healthy fats & complex carbs in appropriate ratios for a healthy lifestyle that includes wt bearing/wt training & cardio activity. Unfortunately, many MDs have sooo many "books" out on their theories backed by biased science to support X diet; atkins, keto, vegan, etc. I am so happy to see you speaking about "real" nutrition. In 2014 I ate a vegan diet for 6 months & never felt worse in my life. In addition, the push for non meat protein sources for the environment is ludicrous. Address China first then ask me to not eat a steak.
Dr. Lyons, you speak eloquently about science & provide a non judgemental assessment and advice for the population.
Listening to some providers and the language they use along with pushing their own agenda drives me nuts but unfortunately the public buys in.
And, Gabriella - diabetes is a skeletal muscle, gut, liver, pancreatic, adiposity tissue & brain disease.
I love that you note you have never had a HgbA1c under 5. I tried not to laugh at that bio marker goal.
Liked info on HDL, TRIG, AST, ALT, etc.
Thank you for your dedication to your field.
Last, Ted notes the need to be in a kcal deficit from exercise & food but how can people do that if they don't know how many kcals they should be consuming; considering he doesn't give kcal goals.
I do note that most calculations for kcal needs is faulty. I would love to hear what you do to advise your patients on total intake. My patients do want to track their macros but you need total kcal to start.
And you need to meet and exceed macros for muscle gain. It’s a delicate balance. I track macros, apply the appropriate training, sleep, and it’s challenging to put on muscle.
Listened twice on Spotify! Now, I am taking notes on RUclips! Thank you for spreading the protein gospel.
Thank you so much for listening!
Alright I am a physician. I have played with Keto, Carnivore, Paleo, Mediterranean....I am back to P:E RATIO DIET. Ted I think you win. Especially for athletes. I got sick with all my workouts and no carbs. Thanks for your work.

I really like how Dr Ted Naiman cuts through all of the dogma and confusion. And sees how things work with his own clients. The way he simplifies and articulates complex concepts is amazing.
I have learned so much from listening to both of you. I am grateful. Dr. Naiman turned me from essentially a low carb high fat diet to his suggestions of protein to energy. Not only is eating much more enjoyable due to much greater variety, but pushing 63, I am showing vascularity in my abdomen. Painlessly I might add. Thank you both so much!
How much protein are you having?
@@markaguilera493 Every meal starts with a good source of protein. I don't count any more. I eat uniformly. Minimally, I'm over 200 grams at approximately 182 pounds currently.

I also eat beef a couple of times a week and 3 whole eggs daily.
@@jamesspella8548 thank you. There is so much contradictory info out there, I wish I just didn't have to eat at all.
FANTASTIC INTERVIEW. Love this Doctor. Thank you Dr. Lyon for asking all the questions I was hoping for. I learned so very much today.
I enjoyed the simplicity of his advice. In summary…
Weight loss resistance- you need 30 mins of moderate cardio everyday or 1 hr of light cardio, down 500 cals (50% from diet (but not protein or fiber), 50% from exercise). Best weightloss drugs are those that increase satiation.
If your waistline measurement is higher than have your height you are in some kind of trouble.
Worthwhile labs - Fasting Triglycerides (under 100, A1C (under 5), HDL (over 50).
I do the cardio but I do have rest days when I work out and one weekend day when I just walk. As you get older you need more recovery.
25:18
In my opinion, we could all use some of his attitude and humility.
I love Dr Ted 's philosophy on protein to energy ratio's.
❤
❤❤1😊
Great interview and such a well balanced view I totally agree with his philosophy
I think this doctor hit it spot on when he said you have to take a little from everything. When you go hardcore one way is where it gets detrimental. A body is a complex mechanism and one way is not always the right way for everyone.

What does this have to do with my comment?
I too tried every diet out of desperation to lose weight and nothing worked.. no one ever said just increase your protein … I also was carnivore for a month with no success and thought I was eating good Amt protein but when I really counted it was so low since I couldn’t eat a lot of the fatty meat they recommend.. I also was miserable on them.. now I’m increasing protein and eating all food groups and feel so much better and happier and never hungry 😃 he’s a lifesaver
I absolutely LOVE your podcast, & this 1 is amazing. The information you share is so imperative TODAY. Dr. Newman is Histetical! LOVE his approach, attitude. & knowledge. Thank for all you guys do to educate us in practice ways so we can actually understand & apply in our life our work. ❤❤❤
I love this guy! So humble and open minded. I’ve followed Dr Furhman and McDougall for nearly 18 years. I just can never get satiated no matter how many beans, lentils,, tofu, hemp seeds, ect. I want to stave off heart disease, cancer, dementia, ect and ‘live until I die’. Nutrition world is so dogmatic and would love to hear a civil debate. I also welcome input from those who may have been in my position. Anyone switch to Dr Lyon’s approach from a WFPB diet? I just found her and am so interested.
Same here Mc Dougal diet ruined me, hungry all the time ,gained weight, noe low carb high protein. Never hungry,
Eat less calories. Eat low fat. Limit saturated fat. Exercise lots and lots, especially really intense cardio. Don't even bother trying to lose weight if you don't do at least a half hour of exercise a day. Thanks, but I'll stick with my high-saturated-fat carnivore diet and non-cardio exercise.
I live 20 minutes from the HOH Rainforest in Wa State. I was walking in the rain yesterday and noticing how bundled up everyone was but me. I have on a t-shirt and yes was getting rain wet but I was toasty warm. I have been weight training 6 months and eating 180 grams of protein everyday or as close to it as I can get. I have added a good amount of Muscle weight and thinking maybe this added muscle is some how keeping me warm during these cold walks ? I am 58 and male 6'1" 268 pounds belly boy trying to lose the fat and build muscle.
Thanks for introducing him to all of us and thanks to Lewis Howes for introducing you to me. Love learning more about health and fitness.
Thanks Dr. Lyon❤ I did not know how important dietary protein and skeletal muscles are until I heard you spoke in one of the interviews. I’ve been a big fan since. You’ve definitely changed my eating habits to focus on protein intake at each meal, and incorporating weight training. I rarely make comments on RUclips but I have learned sooooo much from this interview from you and Dr. Naiman. Big thanks for sharing this valuable information and knowledge from your practices. I love the passion you have for muscle-centric medicine. I love the part when Dr. Naiman talked about his progression in ditching those meaningless lab work. It’s wonderful and music to my ears - I enjoyed this episode so much!! Please keep up the great work!!! ❤
For those who are afraid of protein , here is something to think about
What is the biggest organ in the body ( yes you are right ! Muscles ) you feed it with protein with progressive over load then it will work for you by clearing blood sugar
Excessive protein raises insulin.
@@rgee5176 true if you are not active and not applying to regressive over load to stimulate muscle hypertrophy
I meet and many times exceed my protein macros and apply progressive overload to a consistent training routine. I’ve been stagnant with muscle hypertrophy and many say it’s because I’m not consuming enough carbs. It’s challenging to meet them on a regular basis.
So I really enjoyed this video. I looked up Dr. Naiman and was disappointed to find he did residency right here in SC but is now in WA! Thank you for the great information. I will be looking for both of your books.
Dr. McDougall was amazing for me while heavy workouts and weight training. I looked fantastic and felt great… was on it from 2002- 2020 and went off during COVID. I’m going to go back to it because meat doesn’t work for me but it’s good for many other people.

Wow this talk is so helpful!I've been completely convinced of the superiority of following a carnivore diet for over 2 years but in adopting a higher fat carnivore diet. I've done nothing but gain weight and get confused by It!! On the surface I may look super foolish but listening to influencers and other doctors as well it seemed to be the right way to eat for optimal health! My body has shown me that this WOE does not work for me.
I love the information in this video and I appreciate both of you sharing your knowledge and wisdom with us!
God Bless and Happy Easter!!
@@LauraWhy, from what I’m learning, a high fat carnivore diet can absolutely make you gain weight. Try lowering the fat. Check out Maria Emmerich and protein sparing modified fasting (PSMF).
Same here. It’s just too easy to eat tons of calories. I went crazy eating tons of pork belly and fattest cut of meat, I loved it but I gained 4 kg in 4 months and I realized it doesn’t work for me. I also couldn’t sleep. That was a no go for me.
I’m confused by Dr. Ted saying you don’t need saturated fat. I’m assuming it’s still true that the body DOES need fat but that he’s saying it doesn’t have to be saturated? So that leaves polyunsaturated and monounsaturated? So I’m thinking pork and olive oil? I’m hoping he’s not referring to polyunsaturated seed oils which I’ve heard are pro-inflammatory and actually bad for heart health. Unless this is not true?
Also, if the nitrogen isotope tests from the fields of archaeology and anthropology are true, then we’ve been eating fatty meats for 300,000 to arguably 3 million yrs. I believe that would include saturated fats in those fatty meats. How then is this suddenly contraindicated in the modern diet? Especially since us modern humans are not that biologically different from our recent ancestors?
Don't listen to these clowns and their opinions! They don't know shit!
What were our ancestors doing physically? Were they sitting most of the day, inside not working outside? comparing our ancestors bodies to today is comparing apples to something very different from apples. The water was much cleaner, the soil was much healthier, air, What was available to eat was much healthier as well. Correct? makes sense. So how can humans of today be compared to humans of 200 years ago let alone 6000 years ago.
small carnivore here. he is wrong. he is not carnivore. i eat 170 grams of animal fat per day.
Thank you both so much! I am finally seeing positive improvements in my body after listening to you!! Appreciate you sharing your knowledge so much!!

People kept saying it’s all insulin and not eating carbs is only way.. I kept questioning how do people on weight watchers or low fat lose weight then🤷♀️.. now I understand it’s all about protein
Awesome information, I appreciate you sharing it with us. I will have to go back and take notes☺️
you are both the best in this space ! Keeping everything as simple as possible for the students in the world . This information is invaluable !
Thank you so much! I'm happy you found it valuable!
What are your thoughts of drinking black tea (unsweetened), green tea (unsweetened), black coffee (unsweetened), water during the 16hour fast time? I thought that Dr Satchin Panda on the circadian rhythm suggested drinking water only during fast time. Thanks for answering 🙂
You can drink any of that stuff I've been doing it for 6 years that way you can enjoy a little bit of life during the fast
Intermittent fasting for 6 years and my wife does it so yeah drink that stuff and enjoy some life you deserve it
Dry fasting(no water, etc) burns fat at a greater rate
The shotgun approach to bloodwork Ted mentions speaks to a larger issue with how the heath industry is monetized at this point. People go away to a weekend course and comeback calling themselves a "Nutrition Coach", they get their "clients" to pay for a crapload of tests and then they espouse some cookie cutter wisdom that the learned from the company that gave them the weekend certification. As a result many "coaches" are trying to make health and fitness _so_ much more complicated than it needs to be, which is why I appreciate Dr. Naiman's book. If you are out of shape, eat more protein than fat, eat to satiety and exercise for 30 minute a day, lather, rinse, repeat. Easy peasy
If more people took that money they'd spend on tests to buy themselves a nice ribeye, they'd be a lot happier. ;)
I have thought of that idea as well. For example you for example you get a blood test. The results indicate x so you eat to deal with x. less simple carbs, less sugars. Or go straight to the treatment irregardless of testing. Your body just cares what food it's using.
Excellent interview!❤
I love him. I tried Carnivore for 3 months, felt like crap. Glucose and tryclicerides went up.
Amazing, loving this podcast and the content 😉👏🏻👌🏻
Glad you enjoy it!
Agree with minimal lab testing…my naturopath ordered blood tests, 32 vials were taken…thousands of dollars!
I don’t mind people embracing certain carbohydrates. But I definitely would never suggest them for somebody who has metabolic issues and needs to lose a lot of weight and get their insulin in order
Ted you’re a rock star! Keep up the great work! Gabrielle you are doing amazing work! You two are my favorites. I hope to see you both on this podcast together again many times!
Thanks so much!!
Just came across this interview. Thank you! Loved every minute of it. I al love D. Layman too😊
Second interview i seen with dr.lyon really awesome stuff here thank you 🙏🏽
Great content and looking amazing as always Dr. Lyon 👌
I thought I was going to have to listen to a whole hour of this to learn about what I should eat, but then I completely forgot about the diet piece since not much was mentioned. Still, this was a great episode! I love that he mentioned the fact that he has been wrong many times because you can see that he really has the experience and knows what he’s talking about. I learned a lot from Ted and would love, love to learn more!! Thank you for having him on your podcast! 🫶🏻
Does Semiglutide work against body recomposition? Meaning does it inhibit muscle growth when high protein intake and progressive weight training are used? Many users look skinny / fat and I wonder about the long term effects on metabolism. Thanks in advance!
12:20 “focus on foods that provide a greater satiety vs a caloric goal.”
Loved this! After 2 years of being weight loss resistant , Wondering when it's appropriate to use semi glutide ...
Thank you! I would like to know what you think of the Randall Cycle ( Bart Kay) specifically about the supposition that when any carb arrives at the mitochondria with fat, the mitochondria shut down depriving you of energy and the fats and sugars get stored? Thank you.
The amount of important information is just 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Like it was easy to get more lean muscle or a1c under 5.
I'm 6ft tall 180 pounds, still over weight, a1c down to 5.5 from 14.5.... I fast 16 to 21 hours everyday, triglycerides are within range, HDL is excellent and LDL substantially higher than my doctor would be happy with. I feel very well, walk / cycle 10+ hours a week and yet this doctor made me feel I'm not doing enough.
Thank you for tuning in! I'm sorry it felt discouraging for you. Our intention was have a transparent conversation on what we see in our clinics. Keep up the good work!
@@DrGabrielleLyon I'm 3 yr carnivore, 150 lbs,always lean muscle,now all of a sudden getting loose skin please help me reverse this.your great and Dr Neiman ask him how to reverse it.
so complicated, and so many opinions. I’ve tried these methods plus others that were recommended to me with carnivore and all I do is gain and have muscle cramps. I’ve given it as much of a go as I can, my confidence in it is dashed. If it’s our species specific diet it shouldn’t be this complicated.
Hi Ellen, everyone is a bio individual when it comes to what foods make us feel our best. I encourage you to experiment with what foods work for you, and not try and follow all the latest trends out there. It's also great to consider what thrives in your area locally. Keep up the good work!
Love your content, thank you
You 2 are just excellent! Wondering why nobody is talking about NMR LIPOPROFILE WITH INSULIN RESISTANCE MARKERS?
Thanks! I want to try medicine help with weight loss, but I worry about the side effects.
I can I cannot relate to this at all. I eat high fat carnivore and have lost 25 pounds. And as soon as I go off of that I start gaining weight. My so-called thin husband was 187 in March and is now 166 by not snacking and eating high meat and fat dinners. He just got through gaining 2 pounds and it’s because he started eating potato chips as a snack when he was out and about doing different things. He absolutely cannot have carbohydrates either. He eats no sugar we eat no vegetables very little fruit if any. We have both lost weight and feel great eating carnivore
My two favorite Doctors!! Yeaa!!!
I think it´s ridiculous that there still isn´t consensus on things like ¨fiber¨. One camp says it´s one of the worst things for our intestines/colon, while others push it. So sick of the opposing views in the keto and carnivore communities. Love Ted Naiman for most of the knowledge I´ve used to lose weight and get healthy, though..He´s one of the few that is against people guzzling fat and putting it on everything they eat. He´s more reasonable about macros, in general.
Hi Dr Lyon. I am In the beginning of my journey once again. I keep failing at everything else because I think as you stated 2:54 I need more protein. Not sure if it’s okay if I should still aim for 1gm of protein per pound of idea body weight if I am stage 3A chronic kidney disease? Please guide me as I don’t know which way go with that. I have 80lbs to lose. Will i further damage my kidneys? Am I safe to eat that much protein? I’m 240 female and 5’4”. I would like to be 135-145lbs
Absolutely LOVE Your work, research, & education fie rhe masses tgat are applicable.
Do you plan ti address womens hormones, & thyroid, even cortisol adrenals?
To be educated before going to Dr. I FEEL is a great place to be. Educated pt & questions.
Thank you! ❤
Golden conversation here. Thank you
Thank you for listening! I'm happy you found it valuable!
Beautiful clever people, love every bit of this.
Wow, great podcast. I will have to listen to more of you. I guess I found you though listening to Huberman and Layne Norton. So glad for the work you do
Love it! Thank you for tuning in!
Great podcast! Thank you for sharing all of this valuable information.
Good info, the only thing is the exercise recommendation if you are weight loss resistant. How does someone who is very overweight, has literally no cartilage in knees, fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue do intense exercise you recommend. I would be crippled.
Great podcast! Love the protein doctors :)
Awesome interview best interview I seen
As I do exact that and feel amazing instead I get my protein from Legumes, Tofu
Gabriela you super professional and I like everything about you
Keto worked for me for many years as far as weight loss and maintenance. But as far as healing my issues it failed miserably. It wasn’t until I found carnivore this early spring that I have finally felt like I’ve got things under control
Awesome!
Hi! Are you still carnivore? How is it going if so?
Carnivore is the ultimate for me
Dr. Lyon, could you do a show about ethnic/racial differences in labs and other objective measurements of metabolic health? I found that comment about variation in HDL amongst different ethnicities to be interesting, and as a south asian, would like to learn more about this topic.
his skin is flawless
Great video, very informative. Two of my favorite people on 1 podcast. Beautiful tattoo!
I Thank the BOTH of You!!!!!!
