The Sirtfood Diet has been generating buzz through its rumored use to drive Adele’s weight loss. Best part - the diet encourages red wine and chocolate. The Sirtfood Diet was created by Glen Matten and Aidan Goggins. They studied Nutrition Medicine at the University of Surrey where they learned about the sirtuin proteins - sirt for short. Activated sirt proteins burn fat and preserve muscle by triggering a metabolic switch. Animals with activated sirt proteins live longer and healthier. How can you activate sirt proteins? Extreme calorie restriction or extreme exercise. Suggesting to eat a 40% calorie restricted diet isn’t going to make you as popular as suggesting to eat chocolate and red wine. Certain nutrients can activate sirt proteins, mimicking the effects of calorie restriction. I learned about these nutrients in grad school too - one nutrient in particular called resveratrol, which is found in red wine. A family of nutrients called polyphenols contain a whole bunch of sirt-activating nutrients. Who’s not going to bite at this offer? Mimic calorie restriction by eating polyphenols? That’s Aidan and Glen’s million dollar idea - create a diet based on foods with sirt-activating nutrients to burn fat and boost health. And thus the Sirtfood diet was born. What are the sirtfoods? The diet staples are arugula, buckwheat, capers, celery, chilies, cocoa, coffee, endive, extra virgin olive oil, garlic, green tea, kale, Medjool dates, onion, parsley, red wine, soy, strawberries, turmeric and walnuts. Nutrients in these foods known to be sirt activating include quercetin, kaempferol, curcumin, apigenin and epigallocatechin gallate. Sirtfood green juice is made up of kale, arugula, parsley, celery, apple, ginger, lemon and matcha green tea powder. Aidan and Glen’s 2016 Sirtfood Diet book cover boldly states “clinically proven to lose 7 pounds in 7 days”[6]. That “clinical proof” comes from a pilot study that they ran with 40 members of a super posh gym in London called KX Life. There were a whole bunch of issues in this study that triggered my science spidey sense. Besides this pilot study, the only other evidence of the Sirtfood Diet is from anecdotes. Dr. Lara Science Law #1 “Anecdote is not evidence!”

My first time watching and I thought this was going to be really cold and clinical but I was pleasantly surprised by the fun bits. You are a joy to watch and your smile really lights up the screen! Thanks for all the great info!
Totally agree
Sounds like an organized Mediterranean Diet to me! Thanks for explaining this 🙂
That’s what I thought!!
Shely Salem Mediterranean diet is much higher in grains.
arugula, buckwheat, capers, celery, chilies, cocoa, coffee, endive, olive oil, garlic, green tea, kale dates, onion, parsley, red wine, soy, strawberries, turmeric walnuts
Breakfast oatmeal with blueberries and mango, lunch cooked cabbage and grilled fish, dinner roasted asparagus with roasted chicken, snack mandarin orange and almonds. And I didn’t have to join a fancy London gym to loose 80lbs. Great video
*here because Adele followed this diet to glow up.*
I bet everyone
@Kitten Lyric can you show me the links that prove this?
@@antiageing Kelly did, not Adele.
Same lol 😂
Me to😢
This video was so well-structured. It definitely deserves more views!
Thank you for the straight talk. It is refreshing to see more green foods and plants, in general, as a focus instead of eliminating food groups or just calorie restriction. Your science information was clear and helpful to the non-science crowd making it obvious that this a fad diet.
This video was so well done . Just the perfect amount of visuals and verbally explained facts and she didn’t bash the diet and wasn’t condescending
Love your videos so much! All the hard work you put in really shows. Thank you for this informative video and am very grateful for your content
Thanks for your detailed information, your smile and ability to review the pros & cons. Very helpful. Going to go make a smoothie now! :)
This was super informative and well done! Thank you definitely subscribing!
Super nutritious. Say what you want about the calories, there are a ton of vitamins, minerals and fibre in this diet.
Excellent video!! Straightforward and informative.
I’m new to your channel and I love how you present scientific info while also including a bit of humor!
Omg this needs more likes, the best video I've ever seen about any diet.
Good job, keep it up! Easy to follow up. I subbed.
What do you know? Being in a calorie deficit by eating low calorie dense/high fibre foods would cause fat loss 🤔🙄
not necessarily. If those foods cause insulin to surge weight loss will be impossible
Yes but so would being healthy chile
Wait, there were only 40 people in the only study they did? They wrote a whole book with such little evidence? Wonder why Adele's trainer chose this diet for her? I mean, it worked with her, but it just seems like a regular low-cal, high exercise majority vegan diet would work just as well.
So...a calorie-restricted diet triggers the production of sirtuin proteins which make you healthier...and eating "sirt foods" trigger the same proteins without having to restrict calories...so the "sirt diet" is a calorie restricted diet heavy on sirt foods. Does this not seem somewhat circular in its logic? Are the sirt foods causing you to lose weight? Or is the calorie restriction causing you to lose weight? If you ate a thousand calories a day of Twinkies for a week...would you lose an average of 7 lbs? Are the sirt foods not just a window dressing there to confuse dumb people into buying a diet book? Should I write a Twinkie diet book and get 40 people to follow it so I can say it's backed up by a "study"? Any volunteers?
Best explanation video out there! Awesome job and TY🌸
Thanks for clarity!!
Love your videos, thank you!
Well Adele looks incredible so she's living Proof
Awesome!!! Thanks for sharing all that valluable knowleage!
Great video. She was fun to watch and interesting to listen to.
Super informative!! Thank you
Thank you for the information!!!!
Wow it’s so important to get clarification all the way around on any diet and you did a great job thank you 🍷 🍫
I'm all plant based. 3 months down. Eat lots of veggies, rice, potatoes, legume, I've lost 5 kg. I follow high carb Hannah. Kikiplantful. Please give it ago. It's sustainable and healthy x
Super Informative! Thanks 🙏🏽
Oh my God! You made me laugh so hard! 🤣 The part where you’re trying to pronounce Epigallocatechin...and went into the whole Epi catechism battlestar gallactica! But I also love you video, because I learned so much! Thanks! Instant subscriber! 💖
I love you comment hahaha I'm still laughing :)
I'm just reading the sirt food diet book and it's genuinely really interesting!
Fasting and eating meat and veggies are easier
Exactly.
No need to "fast"
@@johnmckernan151 sure everyone fast if you sleep for 8 hours you fast for 8 hours fasting allows your body to recycle cells, get rid of excess proteins things like that I can fast 72 hours like it's nothing at all
You can't fast just to eat a murdered animal.
@@berly9397 just because a plant can't screen or show fear doesn't mean chopping them or pulling them up is not murder. Plants breath eat and grow if your eating plants your eating a murdered creature.
With respect to juice vs fiber. It is only 3 days. You can get your fiber for "overall health" after these 3 days. 3 days are not going to make weather in terms of fiber, but they will kick start whatever they need to kick start. And then you load up on that fiber
Hahaha, you are so funny! Thank you for teaching us! Is this close to whole-food plant-based diet (depending on the brand of the wine) with restrictive calorie intake then?
I ordered the book I can't wait to get it.
I’m looking into this! Might start it
Thank you! You're are such a doll!
I want to try it🙄 but I'm very bad at following a diet😔
Shop for the ingredients & have only these ingredients at home, which will motivate you to eat these foods through necessity & desire.
Good luck 👏
Interesting video!
BTW, I noticed this has 161,000 views as I watch it. You've got lots of other videos with less than 10,000 views, but those videos are just as good as this one. The RUclips gods are confused because your content is great. Really.
This is literally my basic diet and I'm still a chonk. But... I do look like I'm in my 20's when I'm actually 40...
I feel you. I eat what others do to loose weight, to maintain my weight.
love that!! when did you start eating this way? I am 23 and this is also mostly what I eat lol I hope I get the same results hahaha
You’re 40? I’m 19 and I say chonk so I thought you were 19 too :0 so strange.
Same, I look young but I'm still heavy, I love vegetables and soy and I eat at least a few of these foods a day anyway
I'm gonna be 28 next month..want to lose 15 kgs before my bday 😅
If you limit your intake to 1000 calories a day, you'll lose weight, no matter what you call the diet.
Lol yess.. anything below your BMR 😅
Amen brother
@MAELY HNEINE Great. You'll gain back all the weight you're losing now (and then some) once you start eating a normal number of calories again, plus there's a good chance you'll have sustained damage to several of your internal organs including your brain by then, depending on how long you fast - fun!
Not true. I did it. Was fastidious About counting calories. 1000 per day, absolutely zero cheating, & lost nothing.
I am thankful for this video. I am glad you mentioned that your not a fan of juicing because its expensive, wasteful and I wanted to add that it takes forever to clean a juicer. I had a juicer and got rid of it because of the daily 20 minute cleaning that had to happen immediately after juicing. It only works if your juicing for a whole family because keep juice in the fridge makes it all brown and even more disgusting.
YES I totally agree! When I have juiced I always felt compelled to keep all the pulp to do something with, and ultimately those thoughts were just aspirational and I'd end up throwing out moldy pulp from my fridge.
Thanks for the info. Smart and funny! 😁
Ay. I did this 10 years ago, there wasn't a name for it. Mainly at the time only full contact mma fighters were suggested by their doctors as the use of prescription diet meds were illegal before fights.
very good
thanks for this i was gonna restrict when i could just keep on my healthy diet. The clincal results and celebrity endorsements nearly got me lol
You not alone,lol
I assume your being sarcastic. And not an idiot?
How do you only have 10k subs? This is very good info! +1 👍
bur i want to try this diet but i dont drink any idea ???
thank you so much! Nutrition student here learning about sirtuins:)
It seems there's a lot of good in this, but more research is needed to say anything for certain.
I think this might make a good lifestyle change for many. I'm considering to try something like this, because I've always felt like it was so hard to choose *what* to actually eat, because there are so many healthy things to choose from.
Very well
I subscribed owing to the way she referred to a wine refill as resveratrol.
If I can't drink alcohol wine?
i don't drink vine can i drink grape juice 100% fruit?
You got me when she pointed at the wine glass and said “resveratrol”….lol
I so much believe in the long term
Just discussed in their book. You would not have to drink wine. Knotweed has like 5000 times more resvertrol per gram. Blending beats juicing. Kale beats coliflor because of the colour/poly phenols in the kale. Think!
So No Cheesecake EVER? Nope, cant do it!
I've heard of sirtuins (although I've heard it in the context of autophagy and longevity, I really don't know what it is.) I have never heard of the Sirtfood Diet before though. By the way, I watched this while having lunch, with 3 grlasses of red wine, and a 1/4 bar of 85% cacao dark chocolate for dessert, and I had a resveratrol supplement this morning. I definitely get my 30 varieties of veggies every week. I already lost the weight so no need to diet. I didn't pay anyone for funky diet food, either. Basically sounds like they promote consumption of a variety of vegetables, including an emphasis on polyphenols. Sounds logical, but not magical or proprietary.
It is like any other low cal high clean foods diet out there. I personally chose to follow it for 2 weeks because 1) I needed a reset after covid intensity and 2) I like the foods listed. However, any meal plan where you are eating 1000-1200 cals per day will do the job. It was a great reset for me but doubt I could do any more than say 4 weeks if I was super committed. 14 days did the job and got me back on green juice and now loving buckwheat soba noodles so win. I will say though if you are NOT a fan of green juice this will be a nightmare program...ha!
Thanks for this video! I’m looking for overall healthy yet delicious recipes that aren’t all about exclusion and wanted more opinions about this new trend. I see these diets as guides rather than doctrine. So, yay! Buckwheat noodles, here I come! 😄
Actually the Sirt Food Diet is amazing. I’m finishing phase one and I am eating so much food full of fiber, vitamins, and most importantly flavorful! The recipes are ridiculously delicious. This is an extremely healthy diet that I can follow for life. If folks read the book, you would learn you are not restricted by any means. Give it a go you will not be disappointed.
I thought this channel had a MILLION FOLLOWERS!!????
do you have to do the phases? can I just insert the diet into a healthy routine and lifestyle?
Did you watch the video??? She said skip the phase 1 and go straight to phase 2. Then it is pretty much just go back to normal with phase 3 but instead with more leafy greens than before.
I appreciate how she touched upon all the relevant points without bashing the diet too hard. Any diet is bs anyway.
Shop for the ingredients & have only these ingredients at home, which will motivate you to eat these foods through necessity & desire.
Good luck 👏
Question!!! What kind of red wine???? Can it be sweet red?
It doesn't matter.. Its the calories!! Try white wine
In the sirtfood book it says Pinot Noir is the best
So what if you have a reaction to raw kale due to hypo thyroid
Hypothyroidism's deficiency of thyroid hormones.
certain vegetables like cabbage , broccoli,KALE, cauliflower,spinach, etc. Is harmful.
RESVERATROLLLL 😂😂👏👏🙏
Lucky me the sirt foods are some of my faves!
I had been trying this in the past month. I only lost few pounds because I'm having hard time following the calory restriction.
Although, my skin did glowed up. My skin looks younger. Although, I feel gassy as well 😂
My bf is already complaining with my gas but he did complimented my skin 😂😂😂
Try upping your ginger intake it helped me with the gas.
This is literally the mediterranean diet ?
So it's pretty much a WFPB diet.
Minus the Wine, sounds good
you can just compare the result yourself using a blood test and some patience.
6w this diet, 6w healthy reference diet.
repeat twice or 3 times to control for life episodes and you know.
if you care about your health enough to know what sirt you are probably doing this kind of thing anyway.
(and blood testing is free in many countries)
Sounds like a whole food diet to me. Lmao.
Good PR campaign from these doctors. I like that she showed the real scam with this diet. Also, soy is very inflammatory.
You'd have to drink gallons of red wine to get enough resveratrol to be of any benefit.
So it's like keto
I have a hard time believing that people are dropping major weight eating so often in one day
Guess these sirt diet is not [easy] for people with hyperuricemia...
But if u Vegan?
Use legumes over flesh, skip eggs.
Losing 7lbs In 7 days is not safe or sustainable if their claim is true.
That's water weight and lean muscle mass saying goodbye. And if you are training cardio and resistance you sure ain't gonna lose 7lbs in a week either.
Remember people body transformation doesn't happen over night. Slow, steady progress is safe, sustainable and you won't look like a talking corpse by the end of it either.
1k calories doesn’t sound like it’s restrictive
So basically a reduced calorie plant leafy green based diet with a dash of red wine
YUK
Say it 3X's fast...I can't say it one time slow!
Why don’t you go over the carnivore diet?
The real take home message isn't the diet, its the fact that science is taught at a higher level in Europe than it is in the USA. The author claims, 'oh yeah I learned them too' but I can guarantee that it was at a lower level without much emphasis than it is abroad.
So this is basically another way of saying eat more vegetable
Now that you say that, it sounds shady
Yeah alcohol
Toxic but watever
Seems like the KETO diet that is super popular here in the States. :/
Migraine and kidney stones idk 'bout this?
Plant Based Whole Food
I lost 7 pounds in 36 hours once - but, I had a stomach virus.
That sounds terrifying 😱😱
"Sirten nutrients can activate search proteins"
I well remember decades ago when my coworkers were living on cabbage soup. The keytone diet (now keto) came next. Anything to keep from exercising and eating healthy. Another excellent video.
They made a KETO diet in their study, in fact what they do is a clean eating low carb diet, like Paleo or others, so actually bullshit
I might try it just to see a difference 🤦🏽♀️🤣this weight gottA go
ah,.....resveratrol,......you would have to drink 20 l of vine per day to get something out of it,......i stoped watching
I love her 😂😂😂
