This was by far a better option than watching New Zealand's mundane Friday night TV offerings. Thank you for continuing to add to the education of people of all ages. My first experience of the RIGB was watching the first Christmas Lectures by Eric Laithwaite, unfortunately on the "missing" list, and I still find myself looking forward to the next Christmas Lectures despite being what nobody would describe as a "young person" at 67 years old.
That means a lot to us, thank you. And you're in good company when enjoying the Christmas Lectures. We see it as a family show that can be enjoyed by all people of all ages.
Humans are the only beings that leverage on knowledge to make reasonal decisions against instincts for our benefits and goals. Thanks for the video. More can benefit from the knowledge. What we know, we can use to our advantage.
Good questions, and even better answers! I had some issues that I think Giles should've addressed, but at least mentioned, and he answered most of them here.
Don’t have the technology really to understand motivations quite yet. At least that specifically. Can do mri and see what lights up, but understanding human motivations is beyond our capabilities right now. But clearly, humans value comfort over health. The last 50 years have demonstrated that quite well.
There has been some work in this area. Social exercise seems to be quite motivating for many people, e.g. team sports. In part you feel more obligated because others are depending on you and expecting you to show up, it's also probably more fun. Another big part is habit, if people can do it long enough for it to become habitual, then they are much more likely to continue beyond that. Exercise is unfortunately much less effective than diet when it comes to weight loss, so I would hesitate to call it the other half in that respect. In terms of overall health though, I wouldn't be surprised if exercise is potentially even more important than weight.
@@markislivingdeliberately Really? I'm not terribly convinced of that. After all, running for one's health (jogging) was a bit of a novel concept 50 years ago. I think we have become far more aware over the last 50 years that there even was some sort of health/comfort dichotomy...though I think that is a misnomer. As someone on the heavier side myself, I can tell you that it is not more comfortable, not socially and not physically, so it's sort of weird to refer to not exercising as the comfortable choice. There can also be a bit of a vicious cycle, you don't want to go running because you're heavy and it's embarrassing, you don't, and then you get heavier, so it would be even more embarrassing, etc... I think our food decisions are largely overshadowed by the moment unless we put significant effort into planning and sticking to a diet. You go to work thinking, "I'll just have a sandwich for lunch today." You have a bit of a rough morning, an unpleasant meeting and you're not making as much progress on your project as you should, lunch rolls around, you go to the cafeteria, and now you're really craving the buffet. It smells delicious and you don't want to get back to work after the 5 minutes eating a sandwich would take, you want to take 20 minutes to reset before diving back in. So ok, you slipped, but you tell yourself you'll have less at dinner, or you'll only have the sandwich for lunch tomorrow... When you're less stressed you're more likely to make better health decisions. Say you go in, you're making good progress in your work, finding some exciting results, you hardly even want to take the time to eat lunch, you do only eat the sandwich at your desk while you continue coding so you can get the next part running before you leave. Once you submit those jobs to the cluster, there isn't too much to do until they are done the next day so you leave a little early and go play basketball with a light mind. That is my anecdotal (unreliable) take on the matter. Sure, we can't fully see motivation in the brain, but there is nonetheless an extensive body of literature investigating motivation with many clever experiments. Do read them with caution though, as there are many papers that have not been reproducible.
i think about my enemies and how they would love to see me fail. before i had any people that disliked me i didn't exercise but now i do. it's more likely more a social cause than a biological one.
I did 21 day fast with only water/coffee/tea and salt/magnesium/potassium and lemon juice in water occasionaly but nowhere around 21 day i was much hungry. I was just missing something to chew, something to have in my mouth. Many ppl can go 40+days without food. Salt helps a lot, one time daily some big crystal of salt. I was cold all the time (big sign in slowed/sparing metabolism), so wearing more clothes helped greatly, but never meassured my temperature, must try next time :)
I would love to be able to send off to determine if I have any of these genetic factors. Then again, I'd like to be able to have a fMRI going throughout my day to see how my brain works while I'm dealing with people on the phones. It'd be neat if we could know more about ourselves.
I remember going to the states in the 70s and being stunned at how many people were huge. Not just overweight but very obese. I was horrified that there were so many people, so I didn't see it in Canadians , at least not in the 70s. It's probably changed by now. It just stood out to me as a child.
Obesity is the culmination of many negative choices over years much like diabetes. Yes genetics play a part but so does education and healthy educational choices related to food.
"It takes a month without food for us to die": actually it takes longer in some of us lucky individuals. I survived 70 days with no calories, admittedly my body was incredibly unhealthy by the end but I survived and I'm still alive thanks to my tube feeds (I'm fed directly into my jejunum) My starvation wasn't intentional, I have gastroparesis and it suddenly worsened a ton and my stomach stopped accepting any foods and very, very little water and it took me a lot of time to get someone to help. This is why I consider myself a very lucky human being, especially as I'd gone years on a very low caloric diet so I starved on an almost empty tank. I'd love to have my genes tested to see what's there in relation to my abilities to starve for longer than normal, as I'm extremely energy efficient even now (4 years after my starvation). I need far fewer calories to maintain my weight and if I get even a few more calories than I need I get fat quicker than I should do and really struggle to lose it. My diet is fixed as it comes in a bottle (thanks to the wonderful NHS) that I remove 100ml ish (depending on activity level) with a syringe so we know almost exactly how many calories I'm taking in. My drs and dietitians are a little bewildered by my caloric needs (as I'm pretty active and not at all sedentary, even though I'm disabled in other ways than my gi system issues). I'm just thankful or I don't think I would have survived the end of 2014!
I feel the food industries play a huge role, you will eat what's available when you are hungry and Japanese tend to favor whole foods culturally instead of processed foods. Capitalism also has some parts to play in tweaking foods to be as addictive as they can within regulations to maximise profits which isn't as powerful in some Asian countries. Individualism (western) vs collectivism (eastern) also affect the marketing and regulations of foods and healthcare, the collective "good" of the population in a collectivistic country will culturally steer the mentality in some manner.
@@451Duke This is false. Japan westernized far sooner than most nations. They were one of the first outside of Europe to do so. Colonization is not the same as Westernization. The reason Japan doesn't have a "western diet" is because the "western diet" has historically always been the worst option. Until post WW2 it always produced less calories and caused more famines. Westerners literally have bodies adapted to this diet where there are lower instances of lactose intolerance and more tolerance for gluten. What changed is mass farming, bioengineering, and standardized food chains. Those are the two real issues. Before the 19th century, meat was expensive and a minority. Now it's the majority in the west.
there is also the issue of a certain kind of significant others setting you up for weight gain. pretty sure it's not entirely their own fault either. probably some kind of "provider" gene.
This. I own a gym and just today I had a lady say her husband wouldn’t allow her to go to the gym. Wtf… she said “My apparently self conscious husband won’t let me go.” Crazy sauce. I use that as a selling point often actually. “Society usually tries to get you to make poor health decision- oh common have cake it’s my birthday! Nobody ever says ‘hey it’s Friday night, let’s go crab a kale salad and some iced water!” Works every time.
sure is..i have always eaten only dinner,for 20 years ,am in my 40s and still 55kg at 5 feet five..Many people ask how are you slim,and i tell them,I only eat what I need,no more.
Ifs hard for it to be a choice in murica when sugar is in everything, and organic is a selling point to make cheap growing tactics a way to make produce more expensive
it's also the way cities are built in the USA. Most cities are far apart, driving is required and no public transit. Just living in a nyc you lose weight because you take public transit and can walk everywhere to run errands
Sugar isn’t in chicken or beef or lettuce. Just don’t buy packaged food and cook yourself and you’re fine. I live in the same america as you do bub. Stick to the aisles and you’re fine for the most part. And I don’t buy organic. Just eat regular broccoli. You’re fine.

just curious does this Amazon review on his book hold up? "he states there is no difference between consuming high fructose corn syrup and cane sugar. ( since both have about 50% glucose. that's it) makes you wonder what other misinformation harder to check is presented in this book."
There may be no calorific difference between the sugar types, but I suspect you'll find the corn syrup used more freely in processed foods ( it's probably cheaper and thus more profitable )
@@wktodd that makes since. do you think he might overlooked this point deliberately or did his research suggest not enough of a difference to be noted in his book?
People with thrifty genes will find it harder to eat less and lose weight without killing their metabolism. A much better strategy is to eat less calorically dense foods, dropping calories by no more than 500 kcals below the basal metabolic rate.
@@charlesparrish2831 We choose what to eat in the same way we can hold our breath. The body eventually learns our tricks and rebels. (There have been several meta studies showing that calorie deficit fails for long term weight loss in ~90% of people and causes weight gain in about 2/3.) Eating a "good diet" won't cause you to lose weight. It's still a good idea, however.
Very interesting and engaging but still no one is talking about the people who AREN'T over eating or eating highly processed foods in large quantities and still gain weight...I'm never going to find answers....
It depends on the definition of over eating. I could eat 20oz of popcorn and only eat about 2000 calories or I could eat 20oz of peanuts which is about 3200 calores(using large quantites just for comparison). The popcorn is will be much more in volume but only 2/3 of the calories that are in the peanuts. I think the issue is people don't realize the amount of calories in individual foods. You may not eat a lot of volume, but calories may be much higher tha you realize. It's kind of like the "whats heavier a pound of feathers or a pound of bricks" they may weigh the same, but the density is substantially different.
@@zipperneckfronkenstein3364 I don't understand how my reply a "smartass" one, could you explain? Also, I don't quite understand what you mean by "As in fruits, veggies, protein, whole foods 900=1200 cal a day...." could you clarify what you mean?

I find it amazing that Japan has such low obesity levels, yet they have invented sumo!
