How wonderful to see Grant Schofield back on youtube. Down to earth and straight talking. Over a decade ago he was telling us very much the same things. When will we all realise what is going on? Some of us do, but we have not yet reached that Tipping point. I thank Grant for his continued efforts.
"Not pre anything, it is post metabolic disease". Other doctors say, no need to worry about prediabetes, we will address when you have diabetes. That statement made my blood pressure go up. Thank you for all you do, keep spreading the information.
Good Morning Prof Schofield. Loved it. Thankful for making this video and educating us. In your eg you mentioned about rice and south Asian lady. I would like to offer a tip. My parents were not happy giving up rice pancakes(called dosa in India). I changed the way they are made and got rid of all carbs. Instead of grinding the batter with water I used milk kefir and fermented it for 2 days. The probiotics in kefir ate all the starch away and they did not raise my mom's blood glucose. They also soak rice overnight in kefir and eat it next day afternoon. Hope this will be helpful to you.
Great video, thanks for posting it. Almost 2 years carnivore, NEVER been healthier, happier; I'm at ideal body weight, and actually building strength and muscle. I believe Low Carb Down Under was the source of the first YT video I ever saw on Keto / Carnivore. THANKS! Cheers. :)
The reason why the glucose went up when fat was eaten at the same time is due to the Randall Cycle. When the cell is replete with fat, the door is locked and no more glucose can enter the cell, so blood glucose rises. Cells can only handle so much glucose or fat at a time without damage. Insulin resistance is simply the cell receptors not allowing any more fuel inside or it would be toxic. Learned this from Prof. Bart Kay.
I enjoyed this talk. Thank you. Tomorrow is my 3 year anniversary of low carb (now a lot more meat). It's so nice to be metabolically healthy after several decades. Thankfully I discovered low carb after being diagnosed in Oct 2021.
Having borderline personality disorder. In my experience being vegetarian and now high protein low carb I can say the high protein low carb is working better for me.
Concentrate on saturated fat to heal your brain and nerves over the protein.Don't under eat so count your calories until you can intuitively eat the correct amount for your metabolism. Avoid the veg. oils. The veg.oils have a 2 year half life but it will be dumped sooner if your fat intake is maximized. Take some Pentadecanoic fatty acid to heal all your metabolic health. C15 is found in pasture grass fed ruminant animal products such as milk,butter and cheese,fat and meat.
Even as a carnivore my hair and nails were awful so I started taking a Zinc Max tablet daily. The change was amazing, I now have nails (in my seventies) I haven't had since I was pregnant.
I'm male and am seeing similar results so it isn't gender specific. The available minerals in the forage in our main source of food(beef) will determine if we get the required metals and minerals.If the feed is depleted then we will suffer by proxy. I take mineral salts such as Himalayan salt , zinc,boron,copper and selenium along with lugol's iodine. I am 74 and eating carnivore exclusively for 27 months and my nails and hair are looking good as well. My hair color on my head has went from white to brown as well as thicker .Here is another surprising result: my leg hair on my lower legs has started to grow again. I believe that is proof that my circulation is improving. My brother is experiencing the same results and he started about 6 months after I did.
I’m on carnivore diet never been healthier! We have been lied too. Lost 8kg in 6 months after trying to monitor eating for the past 10 years and nothing happened. Have had heaps of other benefits too and no longer am wasting my money on supplements
I find it amazing that reducing something like rice can improve obesity and insulin resistance. I don't eat veg but I do succumb to bread. When this happens my time restricted eating goes out the window. I find I binge on things like chocolate at weekends. And any grains of eating one or 2 protein meals during the week is undone. I have lower belly fat which is so stubborn. Also I find that intermittent fasting has altered my sleep pattern which is so grim. I enjoyed this talk and think I will look into vitamin supplements.
Hi. Ryan Taylor has some great videos on here that might help. I find magnesium, taurine and vitamin d an hour or two before bed helps me sleep. Good luck!
It is so wonderful that he is taking an active intervention approach to the health of indigenous citizens as well as the general public to train and certify coaches. Some of those coaches obviously have a ways to go to attain optimal health but I'm sure they are trying. When indigenous people around the world exhibit the same diabetic response to modern man's food it should be clear that they should go back to an ancestral diet. Traditional diets were what all humans must go back to. Get the junk out of your body. Alcohol,drugs which are all sourced from plants need to be removed but first you have to get the sugar addiction under control. Ruminant meat and fat is the best way for us westerners. Pig might be the best available source of fat and meat for Asians.
I was diagnosed pre-diabetic until I was introduced to carnivore diet. After 3 months, I am no longer pre-diabetic and I now have full control of my weight which I struggled with since university days. How about avoiding food that does not have glucose altogether? You already know glucose is the problem...then why continue to eat food with glucose?
Me too! And it's not just oxalates either. There are plenty more anti-nutrients where that comes from. And I always thought I was doing the right thing by steaming the veg instead of boiling it. Turns out, you lose some of those poisons through boiling but not steaming. My world has been simplified so much by going carnivore! Meals are ready in a few minutes or prepared in minutes if using a slow cooker. Shopping time has been more than halved, as has food wastage. Looking and feeling the best in many years without ever going hungry. What's not to like?
How much / max zinc, am am so weak. More serious, recently wrnt hospital with hernia had for 36 years, really paibful ridnt / couldnt eat 6 days, couldnt jeep anything down, dtopped 14lbs. In ambulance BG was 11.6 higher than previous 5 days, ketones were 7.6. They worried too low insulin but didnt check . I want to repeat fasting to noost ketones. Could my BG have been higher due to glucagon? Something else they ignored. We need better info, yet all Drs and nurses I spoke to said us fype 2 diabetics dont make enohgh insulin, which to me is BS or we wouldnt be as fat. We are so ill cos of BS from GPs etc. I am in UK, Doncaster. Roll on an insulin / glucagon meter. I also listen to Professor Benjamin Bikman. Is there a link to full video of Liw Carb Down Under re this video. Also mentioned here eyesight, I have vatious issues in last 12 months, cant drive or look after my home now, retinopathy, cataracts, AMD
Professor Schofield - Wonderful insights and challenges, so, do we avoid vegetables because they are likely to be too low in micronutrients, or supplement them or eat more vegetables, to allow for these deficits? The inclusion of funded health coaches in general practices is a great initiative but will Govt funding be reliably continued? Certainly one of the issues with general practice in Oz is that the Govt funding/pay for GPs is so disproportionately low (compared to medical specialists and particularly with remuneration biased towards procedural medicine), which makes it difficult to run their practices and to break even. What about funding GPs better including special items numbers (higher remuneration for preventive and restorative medicine) for dietary intervention for a range of conditions -e.g. diabetes (all types), obesity, fatty liver disease, reflux oesophagitis, fragiilty, sarcopenia, even AD, acquired brain injury/strokes etc? The ability to take on people with such health conditions brings back a renewed purpose to practicing in primary care and is actually cheaper for the taxpayer in a time when hospitals are pressuring for more hospital beds and other empire building enterprises based on screwy statistics and blindness to simple solutions like very low carb diets and a revolution in food and pharmaceutical regulation. Via trained practitioners (fee for service) in primary care with (funded) health coaches or combination of online fixed-fee facilitative networks co-ordinating with primary care practitioners (especially around de-prescription) to possibility of saving NZ and AUD millions in medication costs (accumulating deprescription of medication, especially from 30 to 50% reversal of T2D) within one year is astounding on a national/regional State/Territory basis). Why should not primary care, doing the bulk of the actual work, not benefit? These models could fit with the theories of business as expressed by the late Clay Christensen (Prof. Harvard Business School) and colleagues - see ebook - The Innovator's Prescription 2009 - which especially advises that for chronic disease management and behaviour change, and some health-maintenance systems like home dialysis) - a Govt-run business model is not wise - too many influences brought to bear from lobbyists like food industry, pharmaceutical industry, medical specialists etc.leading to compromise on the original initiative. ( the authors give an example where US Congress enacted a change in the move towards home dialysis by allowing the set up of dialysis clinics in which specialists could hold shares - this allowed specialists to preferentially send patients to their dialysis centre and block home dialysis - leading to a large increase in healthcare costs). It was mentioned that in NZ there was a much better model for choice of home dialysis where the decision and choice of the patient and family was given much higher priority. The book's vision is based on tested theory that with increased disruptive technology, health conditions became more in the line with rule-based and precision medicine with more predictable diagnosis and reliable treatment) which, with appropriate and integrated diagnostic services (fee for service) and differentiated from the rest of a hospital or separate altogether - an example is MHS clinic in Perth); leading to value-added process clinics (fee for outcome) - separate business system) using treatment based on diagnostics - e.g. angiography and stents etc, hernia surgery, rules based chemotherapy etc) ; and for behavioural change and chronic disease (after all precision medicine saves more people than in the past and these survivors, if not cured, become chronic patients) - the business model is the facilitative networks (fixed fee memberships) - health coaches, clinicians can also can fit in here. Dietary interventions are disruptive innovations (perversely) along with technology advances which simplify diagnosis and treatment/management with devolution of more people to GPs, nurses, health coaches because these are cheaper, more convenient and accessible than general hospital and specialists rooms. It is noted though that medical specialist are still very much required for persons with difficult diagnoses and management - intuitive medicine or empirical medicine. This book does not cover the ethics of business and assumed responsibilities of businesses to the environment and human health and one has to remember that the remuneration and insurance are quite different to NZ and Oz.
I always wondered what Tom Cruise might look like, had he aged naturally. (Far from the most interesting question addressed by the lecture, mind you; but RUclips has taught me to temper my expectations and be ever pleasantly-surprised.)
My FAMILY laughed at me sitting having Sunday lunch of cooked eggs instead of vegetables and gravy and sweet glazed pork belly.. I keep my mouth shut and just laughed on the inside myself.. THEY JUST DONT GET IT .. YET
No, micronutrients are from the soil, plants produce their defence chemicals, not absorbed from soil. The depletion of the soil is the cause of the depletion of micronutrients in the plants. However, whether the plants need these specific micronutrients in order to produce their defence chemicals, that I don't know.
The reason that fat PLUS carbs in the insulin-resistant people causes a worsened/exaggerated insulin-glucose response is because the insulin-resistant people have a chronically activated Randle Cycle (Glucose-Fatty Acid cycle). The basic concept is that our diet should consist of ONE energy macronutrient only (either carb OR fat), in addition to protein. Never both. When you chronically consume high levels of BOTH energy macros (carb AND fat), you inappropriately activate the Randle Cycle, causing profound insulin-resistance and chronic inflammation. People can get away with it for SOME time if they're insulin-sensitive, but if you're already insulin-resistance, mixed macronutrient diets are a terrible idea. Hence, there's no such thing as a "balanced" diet. You either eat carbs & protein, or fat & protein. Never mixed.
Biology is never this simple. Ancel Keys and the whole lipid heart movement fell into this exact thinking. A certain modesty instead of making fun would be very much welcomed. Lipid heart fallacy is that omega-6 PUFA linoleic acid (LA) is good because people with high blood values have less cardiac events. The issue is that blood levels are not at all linked to intake but to your metabolism. And LA itself in the blood is more or less harmless, whats not harmless are the metabolites and the more LA you eat the more metabolites you get. LA = bad. So yeah it's never simple. We do know that protein play a role too in weight loss especially BCAAs. We also know that you can have success with a "carb only" diet, eg. Kempner studies and continuing growing stories online. I do think the real culprit are seed oils and once the metabolism is broken and stuck, it's hard to clean it up again. In terms of keto / low carb, are you really healed if you have to stick to low carb? Healed would mean you can eat mixed macros (whole foods= again with a normal glucose and insulin response. How many have actually achieved this? Or is keto simply treating the symptoms but not actually fixing the metabolism?
Perhaps low carb has been our diet for 4,000,000 years. The idea of mixed macros could well be made up nonsense. If this is the case it would be like saying a lion or a vulture should eat mixed macros if they had a fixed metabolism.... And you say it's more complicated than this but say seed oils are the problem, as if it's not complicated
I look at this a little differently. I think the definition of type 2 diabetes should be when your poor insulin resistant liver starts to make way too much glucose after years of eating the crappy recommended diet and your doctor finally notices. Your liver makes all the glucose you need under the catabolic action of glucagon moderated by insulin. Any you eat is extra and presents a problem of storage and disposal for the body leading to chronic disease and obesity. Heck, even true herbavores like gorillas do not eat sugars and starches. It makes them sick. Ask a zookeeper.

A fantastic lecture; thank you.
Thank you..😊
Fantastic, thank you.
After I found out about oxalates I cut out the fruit and vegetables. I don't need them.

The Randle Cycle is the explanation Professor. Plz learn it. 16 min mark.
“Plausible” … sounds well-evidenced and conclusive …

Being prediabetic is like being a little bit pregnant. Sorry to break it to you, but you are pregnant! (And diabetic, of course)
Actually no, not at all. Unless you’re changing the definition of diabetes.
I look at this a little differently. I think the definition of type 2 diabetes should be when your poor insulin resistant liver starts to make way too much glucose after years of eating the crappy recommended diet and your doctor finally notices.
Your liver makes all the glucose you need under the catabolic action of glucagon moderated by insulin. Any you eat is extra and presents a problem of storage and disposal for the body leading to chronic disease and obesity.
Heck, even true herbavores like gorillas do not eat sugars and starches. It makes them sick. Ask a zookeeper.
