I'm from Australia and i listened already! I was on a list for knee replacement and could hardly walk, taking lots of pain relief. Cutting out sugar, wheat and seed oil has made me virtually pain free and has given me back mobility, it's a life changer!
If you want a laugh I had to give up so very much for all sorts of pain only to find that milk was giving me hell with my knees as well. Cream and butter was no problem at all, just the milk for some strange reason. Whether it was the lactose or the protiens in it or not I have no idea but it only took about a week to make all the difference so it's worth checking out.
My kiddo had seizures(no genetic issues, im convinced it was caused by aluminum in the vaccinations). Anyway, we tried the meds first and while it stopped the seizures, she lost her personality. We went through 18 months of the worst, darkest time of my life. I thought I’d never see my child smile or laugh again. Doctors couldn’t help, supplements couldn’t help. Ketogenic diet helped, it saved all of us. After 3 months her seizures were gone. After 9 months something magical happened and we got her back. Just one day at the age of 5 she told us she was not sick anymore. I’ll be forever grateful to those who discovered ketogenic diet. She is almost 8 now, hasn’t had seizures in over 3.5 years, top of her class in all subjects.
Your story is such an inspiration!!!! Thank you for sharing. Please share this everywhere. It is the grass roots revolution. God bless you and your family!
Very sad beginnings with a good outcome, thank goodness! As an aside, aluminum is not an ingredient in immunizations. We all must be wise about what we listen to
Some years ago when my doctor told me I had type 2 diabetes, I asked him if I could still eat fruit. He said, "You can eat all the fruit you want. You are glucose intolerant, not fructose intolerant." And that's not the worst advice I have ever gotten from mainstream doctors. The public really needs protection from mainstream medical doctors.
Its really tough though because maybe one chapter of a textbook is spent on nutrition in med school. Physicians arent educated on it unless theyt educate themselves outside of school.
I don't usually throw my two cents into any of these conversations on the internet because nothing usually comes from them. Here it goes. I'll tell you what a friend told me a week before he died of obesity, diabetes and heart disease. He said, Brian what I've learned after going through all this Agony with diabetes . we don't need to eat as much food as we think we do. And from experience I can tell you he's right I've cut my eating habits down to one meal a day.I don't eat junk food anymore and I eat very little fruit just on occasion. I know for a fact that if you eat like that you can have a piece of pie or some ice cream sometime. you can have a little bit of pasta. you can eat some steak. We don't even need to eat everyday. Enough said I can't believe I even made a comment on the internet. you all take care. One more thing I do limit my sugar intake which I think is really important. That includes my carbohydrate intake.
I'm not criticizing but if we watched the same video, you can see that Dr. Fettke would tell you that if you think eating pie and ice cream and pasta is good for you, you need to rewatch the video until it sinks in. We all think we can eat a little of this and a little of that and at the end of the day, 40, 50, 60% of our calories come from carbohydrates and that is the primary source of inflammation in the body and connected to the very obesity, diabetes and heart disease that killed your friend. All carbohydrates, and I mean all, are sugar. Carbohydrates are literally chains of sugar molecules, be it table sugar, honey, broccoli or kale. This is what the doctor said in his lecture. Yes fructose and simple sugars are treated differently by the body, but all carbs are still sugar. There is not much difference between eating a bowl of pasta noodles and a half a bowl of sugar.
@@johnnypenso9574 what a nonsense, even proteins become glucose in the right conditions. I eat 600-700g non-wheat carbs a day. My bmi is 19.23. Within these 700g per day there is maximum dozens grams of sugars from vegetables. If I ate 700 g of sugar a day I would be dead.
Brain Murphy Brian, like you I have a mom at deaths door with related symptoms from diabetes in denial... I've mostly gone to a keto type and one meal per day, sometimes a single meal other times a small window of 2-4 hours... With changes I don't feel hungry ever... I've leaned up and lost about 13kg in 4 to 5 weeks... I feel my attention and focus and awareness and - well I could go in.... But it feels at another level.
@Michał Michalak Regardless of your BMI, you should have your A1C, CRP and trigs checked, you might be in for a rude surprise. I was you a decade ago, and I was on a real tailspin soon thereafter, which, thanks to almost complete elimination of carbs and eventually going carnivore.
Recent studies shows that lack of vitamin D may correlate with depression, and now he shows that lack of vitamin D cause inflammation and inflammation causes depression, we are getting somewhere.
Another well known Orthopaedic Surgeon was also cautioned and targeted for using nutrition to help his patients, and that is Dr. Shawn Baker. Well known carnivore and athlete.
I've watched "this stuff for hours" every day for over a year now. I feel I know more than my doctors on these subjects and that scares the crap out of me .
Thank you Dr Fettke, your talk is brilliant, so happy that I discovered Low Carb Down Under, my husband and I have already commenced the change to LCHF
For me, eating fruit, especially grapes, is no different than eating chocolate or a piece of pie. Just sets me off on a sugar eating binge. On the rare occasions I do eat fruit, it is blueberries or strawberries.
Yeah same here. I thought eating fruit was so healthy... don't get me wrong it's filled with nutrients but it's also filled with sugar and can be just addictive as sweets. It sucks but fruit sends me into binges as well so it's best just to avoid them. I've been eating a more Mediterranean style diet these past few months during my pregnancy which has tasted amazing but tbh I need control. I've gained so much weight already and my inflammation is back full force I can't even wear my wedding ring ugh. My doctor gave me the ok on a more Mediterranean style keto or clean keto so I've started that today and I'm watching this while enjoying my allotted one cups of coffee a day lol keto coffee at that. Normally wake up starving lately which I did but since I started drinking my fatty coffee my hunger has subsided already. Oh forgot to mention that I was keto for 1 and a half years before this pregnancy and I lost 65lbs so needless to say is I love me some keto Haha. This time around isn't focused on weight loss, its focused on reducing inflammation and joint pain and also to help control my bloating and gas. Haha ok I'm done.
Went Keto in January 2019, went Carnivore Aug. 2019 for an inflammatory disorder which let to a total hip replacement at age 46, still need a knee replacement. I am healthier than I have ever been !! I am down 50 lbs and have more energy than when I was 30. I feel fantastic! I only wish I had known more about NO carb, low carb, healthy fats a long time ago.
On every health video on youtube, Simone claims to have gone keto for six months and they’ve lost 36 lbs. Ive been calling keto, ‘the 36 pound diet’ for a while now. But good for you!
Brilliant video. Great personality. Very engaging. An important and honest message about nutrition that people need to know because of the centuries of misinformation. People need the truth so they can make informed decisions about their lifestyles. The misinterpretation and promoting of bad science behind nutrition is truly shocking. 100 years of food myths and deep seated cultural ideas around eating prevents the message getting through. Though, at least in UK and Australia where healthcare is free (ish) I’m convinced there’ll be a financial breaking point (due to the medical servicing of underlying nutritional diseases) where the authorities will have no option but to correct the messages, else face financial disaster (that tax payers won’t be able to afford).
Oh, I DO hope you are right, but I fear here in the states that we will go broke before the greedy food and pharm industries will EVER recommend a truly healthy diet.
Cholesterol is actually not bad, it is good, it's objective is to solve the problems with fat in the blood, make steroid hormones like vitamin D and testosterone, etc, when it's concentration is high, people don't have to get it down, people have to discover the reason why the body is producing it, because it is not what's causing the problem, the body is producing it because it's trying to solve the problem, getting it down will just slow down the healing process of the real problem you have, that's what conventional medicine is about today, treating the symptom not the cause.
I tell people this all the time. And that Lipitor is the biggest, most dangerous hoax ever pulled on the population. Our body is always trying to fix us (except when a gene badly mutates). We should never be trying to stop the body from making something So vital to our health and our brains that the body makes it itself and doesn't trust us to eat enough! It's stupid, dangerous, ignorant, and arrogant. And it does harm, not good.
@@patriot20000 Exactly! I tell everyone NOT to take their statin. I stopped mine in Jan. of 2018 and never looked back. I'd have huge arguments with my doctor about this but I stuck to my guns because I knew he was ignorant about cholesterol. It's a shame that I know more than my doctor about this!
Doctors like this one know what's good you because they've been through the wringer and know what it's like to be sick, so they can fix the problem. They know how to do it. Thanks doc.
Intermittent fasting definitely works! My twin sister started January 13th 2020 weighing 213 lb, and today February 9 2020, she's weighing in at 201lbs. Stay consistent and be patient
Great presentation on inflammation! I understand it a lot better now. I’ve always prided myself on staying away from margarine, high fructose corn syrup and partially hydrogenated oils. After watching this, I realized that I have been eating store-bought salad dressings that use these crappy polyunsaturated fats like soybean oil. Ugh this stuff sneaks into everything. Gonna have to bite the bullet and make my own using the good stuff. Everything needs to be made from scratch if you really want to know what’s going in it.
This is by far the most enlightening talk on nutrition that I have ever watched on RUclips... thank you Dr Fettke for breaking it down so solidly for me. In the past I thrived on a raw food diet of fruits n veggie shakes (I'm in Africa - plenty of vitamin D here fortunately!) but was unable to keep that up due to its restrictive and time consuming tendencies. Ive always wondered what about it made me feel so great and so full of energy and above all helped me rid my body of increasingly nagging symptoms of arthritis! I have just experienced a eureka moment.. Its not what I was putting in my body that made me feel great, its what I WASN'T putting in it. ie the polyunsaturated "vegetable " cooking oils. I don't know how to thank you for this revelation. God bless you! I look forward to hearing more from you. Now to look for cooking oil substitutes... I'll start with coconut oil.. its available n affordable where I live. I hope your theory holds up.
The best fats to cook in are good, old-fashioned lard and tallow (but any highly saturated fat ~ like coconut fat, butter, and palm fat, will do nicely. Vary these by _what_ you're cooking. For example, to cook a steak, I think you can't beat butter; but fried/roast veggies, like pumpkin, are better with lard; and if you're going to have a rare, small amount of potato, tallow can't be surpassed). With lard and tallow you'll notice incredible flavour in your fried and roast foods, and unmatched cooking-properties and performance, with a much easier-to-clean stove afterwards (just remember a good cooking-apron, because, even though it is easier to clean off after cooking, real fat spits _a lot_ more than the toxic seed oils [due to its natural water content]; so you might also want to buy yourself a frying-pan mesh cover).
I healed from IIBS and rheumatoid arthritis by ditching sugar carbs and seed oils. Ten years on I have embraced a more carnivore diet amd my health has improved further.
In the 70's we also started to not feed our babies breast milk for long enough. The rates have never recovered. I think it's significant in the obesity epidemic also. The overuse of infant formula products aka the first processed food.. Someone please study this!
There was a huge push for formula by the 1960s; tons of TV commercials. During Emergencies in poor countries they would ship lots of formula, causing women to stop breastfeeding, and babies would become dependent on formula, and rates of deaths would increase because: •Unclean water needed to make formula caused diseases increased deaths in those under age 3. •Formula was expensive, after supply of formula to country in emergency stopped after 6 months, the people had not enough money to feed babies formula. So they use other white powders with nearly no nutrition, babies get sick and die easily. Coffee whitener is one such powder. This is still happening. As a worse case scenario, mother should drink formula, and breastfeed baby.
I’m trying to make my poor metabolic health better, that started its downfall with spinal fusions and the medications needed to help me be somewhat pain free for the last 35+ years…..I felt so sorry for your situation when I saw you on Dr Chaffee. You are a legend, and where the truth hurts, it can also heal….😊❤
An excellently educational and enjoyable video. Living in Scotland where we have a dark winter and long sunny summer I believe that the role of vitamin D has been long underestimated. You shone light on it for me today. Thanks
Thanks for sharing! Gut health is so important to help curb inflammation! Some common mistakes to be careful of when trying to fix your gut health include: adding a probiotic to help with excessive gas and bloating (that's just one piece of the puzzle), eliminating a food for 4 days and expecting it solve the issue (will take at least 2 weeks), and not thinking about root causes!
Good video. I saved it to my Nutrition playlist. 100 grams protein daily, about 30 grams of carbs from vegies and nuts, 0 sugars, and good fats like butter, coconut oil, olive oil and lard. After at least 10 years of high BP meds, Metformin for type 2 and being obese, I've dropped 40 lbs, my BP is in normal range and my A1C is 5.5 after 5 months. It's not a sacrifice, because I'm winning!
Thanks to you and the like dr's E.Berg and J. Bergman we are taking back our health and keeping off meds that continue to put many 6' under.❤️ Love you all and support you.
Just watched your interview for Diet Doctor. More or less the entire history (potted version 😉) of the anti meat agenda. Completely illuminating! One if the best if not THE best of the Diet Doctor interviews here on You Tube. I've been on LCHF for some considerable time now and lost three stones, moreover I feel better than I have for a long time and various ailments have simply dissolved away during this period. I'm about to watch other of your input on here and elsewhere. Your presentation was excellent too and I'm terming that interview as Food For Thought personally. Thank you.
I learned all this and started practicing it in the early 90's before it was really talked about. I rarely consume (except I am sure when eating out) any of the standard polyunsat veg oils or grains. From his lectures my worse offense is that I do eat berries year round with my breakfast.
Little sin that brain health approves :) i devour dark red grapes through one whole month a year. My feast time. Still struggling with coffee but already limited to every second days only. body needs balance in everything some natural stressors and inflammation itself has also some use if limited and healed afterwards. As well as insulin spikes. Like our immune system keep shape naturally & like exercise, heat or cold exposure conditions healthy body Many small changes & agreeing with natural cycles make massive difference.
I’m type2, none of my GPs have told me that type2 can be put in remission. I also have hypertension and on meds for it, my GPs don’t even realise (or pass on) that healing my body is possible just by cutting carbs sugar and seed oils - this has been around for enough years they have no excuse- I’m really po’d. I’ve gone carnivore and fermented foods, losing weight and HBA1c has dropped significantly and I’m aiming for “normality” once that happens I’m ditching statins and challenging my BP meds. 178cm at this point 80kg.
Imagine if we all did the right things. Ate correctly, exercised, listen to what Dr Fettke is saying and did the right thing. We would put so many out of work. In the USA, $1 of every $4 in medical is spent of Diabetes, let me say that again, $1 in $4 USD......So the follow on, less medical staff as we would have less patients, less external medical services, medical centres, Paramedics. If we did the correct thing we would have no McDonald's, Hungry Jacks etc, obesity, would be in the past and the need for medications greatly reduced. What would that do to the economies of the world. Dr Fettke is the start of a very slow smouldering fire that needs to be heard, and heard bu the people who do not want to listen. Seriously, I love my chips, chocolate, honey on toast, and sausages etc. But I am starting to listen and take note.
Nothing wrong with sausages (as long as they're real, old-fashioned butcher's snags [or homemade], that are made of *meat and fat* [with added herbs, spices and veggies if desired], and _not_ 'padded-out' with carbs). The same is true of _dark_ chocolate (70% or higher), in moderation -- and it's positively LOADED with minerals (far more than any piece of fruit; just as liver is more vitamin-dense). There are plenty of low-carb chip recipes out there (made of baked cheese and spices usually), and they're delicious. And you can still have toast (I'd die without my vegemite toast!) ~ just make the bread keto-friendly and home-made.
Sinnergism True. I’ve found some sausages (chipolatas)in Waitrose (UK) which are around 2 grams per hundred(from free range pigs). I can live with that...
The earlier the better... it is easier to achieve optimal weight when you are younger... not impossible, just much easier. The goal is improved health, drop inflammation, feel great, and try to avoid expensive prescription medications due to side effects of insulin resistance. Instead spend money on fun activities, nice house...
After eating first keto and now carnivore, my overweight physician said I had lost too much weight. He like other people including members of my family, do not know what a healthy person looks like. They are all overweight.
Ignore them darling. Go back to watching movies from the 60s. That's what healthy people looked like back then. That what you should be looking like. Eat some liver and bacon for breakky.
That was an eye-opener. Anyone who cooks knows that seed oils oxidize more easily that grease/lard, etc. What I didn't know was that the kind of fat you eat gets incorporated into your tissue, cell walls, etc. So if you eat seed oils, your cell walls have polyunsaturated fats in them--fats that are easily oxidized. LDL is a natural chemical. It becomes dangerous, mostly, when it is oxidized or glycated.
Totally fascinating talk and just what I needed to hear as I've been suffering with a sugar addiction for years, chocolate, bread, crisps you name it. I have been dabbling with an Ayurvedic way if eating for about 3 months, but only this month I discovered a quick fix to my sugar addiction as my sugar addiction was still present. I found constitution Bitters in my local Asian store (struggled with it at first as it's not pleasant to taste, but now look forward to it EVERY morning). After about a week I realised that I wasn't craving sugar anymore and I don't "fart all day" 😁 (what a bonus for everyone walking behind me) It's winter here in the UK so I'll ensure that I take my vitamin D supplements every day to maximize the benefits. Thanks for slotting everything into place, hopefully now I'll get rid of my brain fog, chronic fatigue and other inflammation in my body.
Hi, good luck on your health journey ! what helped me and a lot of others right now, is a carnivore diet, which sounds crazy, I know !! check out www.meatrx.com Dr Shawn Baker real life success stories!
Hi Gary Thanks for the witty, visually pleasing, comprehensive, uncluttered and simple presentation. This makes so much sense. Thanks for curating the information so that we all can be more aware. I am a nutrition enthusiast, and on the verge of reversing my diabetes. I am keenly interested in living long and healthy. What you say is similar what some of our ancestors from the Indus Valley said. In fact nutrition was biggest science then and the cook was the doctor. I have few questions for you, are carbohydrates from grains for example rice, sorghum, pearl millet, foxtail millet and so on as bad as from fruits? I am from India and we eat loads of seasonal millets. Are Vegetables, which grow on the contaminated soils, or animals who consume them are safe for us to eat? Isn’t that altering the content of the fats that you are mentioning for example clarified cow butter? What about Lactose? Eat seems no carbohydrates are good. You are right… largely we are doomed, Thanos seem to have clicked his fingers long time ago or Shiva opened his 3rd eye…may be we are not fit for earth. Thanks & Regards Raghu
So, if I understand it correctly, polyunsaturated fats are bad in combination with carbs...... That makes sense. High carb plant based advocates are always promoting low fat. That's because fat in combination with a lot of carbs is unhealthy. The the keto proponents avoid this bad combination by eliminating the carbs as much as possible. It all makes sense. What is not clear to me is what the ideal ratios are on keto. Omega 3 to omega 6 to saturated fat. And if there even is such a thing as ideal ratio of these fats on keto.
Peter, I find I do best eating some healthy carbs (potatoes,beets, carrots) and some healthy fats (grass-fed butter, olive oil), but not go overboard. Then focus mostly on non-starchy vegetables. Grass fed eggs, meat and fish in moderation, and not every day, either. This is my focus. 🙂
Has anyone tested these theories on people eating food grown in balanced microbial soils? I had the most significant change in my health eating normally, but getting greens grown in our garden. I felt incredible. I think it was the higher mineral and microbial activity in my gut.
I do believe there is a case for plants being less nutritious today than say 70 or 80 years ago before we started bombing them with NPK etc, I still believe the mineral content of plants however they are grown is offset by the anti-nutrient factors, in other words, the more nutritionally dense they become, the stronger the defenses of the plant could potentially become. I used to totally agree with what you say (have done a LOT of research into growing nutritionally dense food myself ) but now having ditched almost all plants and only eating organic plants when I do, even the best greens don't make me feel as good as a 100% animal foods diet does. Plants and I, we have broken up for good lol. I do still like to grow nutritionally dense greens, I feed them to my ducks instead and my word you have never seen egg yolks as orange :-)
If you enjoyed this video, you may also want to know that gut health is so important to help curb inflammation! Some common mistakes to be careful of when trying to fix your gut health include: adding a probiotic to help with excessive gas and bloating (that's just one piece of the puzzle), eliminating a food for 4 days and expecting it solve the issue (will take at least 2 weeks), and not thinking about root causes!
Orthopaedic surgeon speaks about nutrition and includes autism spectrum into a category of mental illnesses and modern diseases. My gosh, all of this should be reviewed...
I walk backwards for 2 laps w/ weights, every other day. Brain reset after brain surgery, to acquire better balance, and strengthen knees to avoid surgery.
Was there a typo on the Power Point slide @18:00 ? Wasn't it supposed to read: Uric Acid Inhibits Nitric Oxide? Nevertheless, Fettke gives a great lecture here. I love this guy! For anyone who would like to convince their friends who still want to believe that fruit is a "health food," just tell them to Google search images of "wild fruits and vegetables" or "what fruits and vegetables looked like before human intervention." If THAT'S what they believe will sustain a human diet, then good luck with that! LOL
Loved the presentation. I have ankylosing spondylitis, and avoid processed foods and eat inimal starch. I'm unclear if Gary hasn't read or is disregarding the peer reviewed papers of Prof. Ebringer et al. His research specifically links starch to Ankylosing Spondylitis. Anecdotally, I have had inflammatory responses from eating fish and chips, which incidentally is high in starch. Anecdotally, I respond favorably to tea made from tumeric.
Fish & chips are cooked in inflammatory processed seed oils. Grains are inflammatory, especially for those with autoimmune disease. Fish is covered in flour or corn starch. You might even have Celiac Disease. Gluten is hidden in nearly everything. Excess insulin from excess glucose will increase odds of acquiring Type 2 Diabetes, but even Type 1 Diabetes for those with autoimmune diseases.
Would you please define "room temperature"? My coconut oil is liquid in the summer, but very, very solid in winter. All indoors, stored in a cool dark shelf.
bintbaladi13 olive oil doesn't solidify unless you put it in the fridge. Coconut oil only melts when it's hot.. at least mine does. Unrefined coconut oil.
Suggest your viewers also look at Dr Rhonda Patrick lecture series on diets and epigenetics and their relationship. This biochemist gives you the in depth science behind this topic.
Brian Murphy I can see why u don't often comment lots of very passionate comments out there some sounding quite rude ( thinking they're missing something in their diet maybe their diet is too restricted ) I liked your comment and your honesty and that even though you're passionate you're polite. Yeah and if you all out there in comment land see mine is too long and it bothers you just skip it that's what a polite person would do 🌿
Those refine carbs lacks a lot of fiber! Here in the Philippines, we eat rice & root crops. When eating carbs, make sure to eat carb sources that are rich in resistant starch. Or eat lots of fibrous foods together with your rice in a meal.
Moderation is the key. Our ancestors didn't have Walmart supercenters. You had to burn a lot of calories to get your meal. Didn't have processed food ether. We may have a modern society but as far as our genes go we are still ancient humans. Interesting lecture but reminds me of a monotoned soft talking professor I had in college. I would fall asleep in class no matter how interesting the subject.
So if I eat a ‘moderate’ amount of sugar, I should be fine? This is directly a recommendation from the gov’t and dietetic association that made us all ill.
Acidosis is the only disease - “The idea behind the whole thing is to keep your body basic, thereby eliminating dietary and metabolic acids, preventing the biological transformation of body cells into microforms, and ensuring radiant health. To that end, you’re going to focus on foods that alkalize your body and avoid those that acidify it. All food ingested releases electrons for energy, leaving an ash residue. This ash residue can be neutral, acidic, or alkaline, depending mostly on the mineral content of the original food. For example, potassium, calcium, magnesium, sodium, zinc, silver, copper, and iron form basic ash; sulfur, phosphorus, chlorine, and iodine leave acid ash. Most elements are alkaline. Fortunately for us, it is easy to categorize which foods leave which kind of ash. In general, animal foods-meat, eggs, dairy-processed and refined foods, yeast products, fermented foods, grains, artificial sweeteners, sweet fruit, and natural and artificial sugars are acidifying, as are alcohol, coffee, chocolate, black tea, and sodas. Vegetables, on the other hand, are alkalizing. That includes a few that are technically fruits: avocado, tomato, cucumber, bell pepper. A few nonsweet citrus fruits, such as grapefruit, lemon, and lime, are also basic in the body, as are sprouted seeds, nuts, and grains. Grains are acidifying, though a few (millet, buckwheat, and spelt) are only very mildly so. Raw foods are more alkalizing, while cooked food is more acidifying. We measure alkalinity and acidity along the pH scale. pH stands for “the potential of hydrogen”-its proton concentration. The pH scale also measures the potential of hydroxyl ions, or electron concentration. Foods saturated with hydroxyl ions, or electrons, are alkaline. Foods saturated with hydrogen ions, or protons, are acidic. In this way, the pH scale is also a measurement of the electrical energy in food or drink. Alkaline foods are full of electrons or electrical energy. Electrons are, in fact, what make them alkaline. This is the energy the body runs on. You can measure it, as I do, with an alkaline electron meter. Alkaline foods provide electron energy to the body; acidic foods pull electron energy from the body. It’s not much different, at heart, from batteries: New alkaline batteries are full of energy-they are saturated with electrons. Dead batteries have been drained of electrons, and they are acidic-saturated with protons. Among many other things, electrons aid in digestion. Electrons or alkaline compounds are called upon to buffer the enzymes or acids of the food. Whatever the acids or enzymes within the food, the body will release alkaline compounds or electrons to buffer them. The lower the acidity of the food, the fewer alkaline buffers or electrons are required. The fewer that are required, the more the alkaline reserves and energy of the body are preserved. The conservation of all that potential, then, provides a boost in your overall energy. The body can make more alkaline buffers and provide more electrons or electrical energy, instead, for use by organs and tissues carrying on their metabolic functions, and to provide repairs associated with environmental, dietary, and/ or metabolic acid or mycotoxic damage.” - The pH Miracle: Balance Your Diet, Reclaim Your Health by Robert O. Young, Shelley Redford Young
While having open heart surgery in dec 2016, as a type 2 diabetic I thought my meals was as they said diabetic meals? I hardly take any T2 medication just keep of sugar ect. While in hospital they was giving me Insulin inchections? When I aked why? I was told my sugar reading was 20? becuase of the stress? the Endocrnologist came in and said it was not the sweets? The chocolate mouse was great? first and last hospital sweet, my sugar was reading a lot lower, Not reading 20, refused injections, the nurses told Endocrnologist, boy was she mad with me I said if over 12 I will consider allowing insulin. Off she went as I said the food is full of sugar. I READ THE REPORT AT BUTTOM OF BED, DO NOT CALL ME AGAIN FOR THIS PATIENT. The prove 1/some around 20 but no readings near 20 2/ While waiting to leave the meals lady asked did I want a sweet with a smile, "yes a reason" I ate it and was home within 45min and took a reading you guesed 20 reading. I was also had a reaction so no insulin then no statin, which was the problem. I have 4 boxes on insulin, worth $1000 ?. What are we all being given? to keep the medical industry wealthy.
If you ever have to go to hospital again, bring you own low carb food. Surgery increases cortisol, a stress hormone. Higher cortisol = higher blood sugar temporarily. Hopefully, now that you are home, you resume the right diet to heal quickly, and hopefully, never need to go to hospital again.
Interesting claim about uric acid... the foods that are supposed to create uric acid are beef, pork, most seafood, organ meat, oatmeal, spinach, cauliflower, mushrooms, cabbage... I think peaches and tomatoes too... there may be more... find someone with gout (like me) and you can test out different foods and see if they spark gout... but, I usually never get a flare up when I eat a lot of fruit. And I plan to eat a bunch of peaches during next peach season to see if the recommendation to avoid them applies to me, because I love peaches. One antidote to gout, is tart cherries, although I eat lots of sweet cherries every day... and take a tart cherry supplement. Apparently, cherries help the body clear uric acid. You do not want gout. It feels like your bones (usually in the feet, but in my case mostly in my fingers) have shattered and just barely touching them, is crazy painful.
Gout is caused when mixing fruits/carbs with animal fats. The Randell cycle kicks in. Your cells create loads of inflammation. On there own fruits are not as bad. Just eating meat and fat means you don't need the fruit or carbs.
Shame on AHPRA to caution a doctor for giving health advice ! And good one too. He, as a surgeon would see all the complications from diabetes/obesity ! A medical degree does not qualify you to give nutritional advice ???
Unfortunately, the medical establishment, to this day, is still going along with the SAD (standard American diet) so I would never take advice from them where nutrition is concerned as they do not receive any training in this. The SAD advice came from the food industry not the scientific community. Thank RUclips for medical people who have done independent research into this!
This was very interesting to watch after Low Craqb Houston 2019, especially the presentations by David Diamond, Ivor Cummins, Jeffry Gerber, Siobhan Huggins, and Dave Feldman. I have a question about hormone known as vitamin D, where is it assembled by the body? Does the bacteria in the small intestine have anything to do with the assembly of D (D2/D3?) and which bacteria help to build D2 /D3? Does wearing UV blocking glasses, sunhats and long sleeves impact D production? Thank you once again Gary.
I'm from Australia and i listened already! I was on a list for knee replacement and could hardly walk, taking lots of pain relief. Cutting out sugar, wheat and seed oil has made me virtually pain free and has given me back mobility, it's a life changer!
Can u pls tell me about your diet.? Im having knee problems too and its getting severe. Im from India.

If you want a laugh I had to give up so very much for all sorts of pain only to find that milk was giving me hell with my knees as well. Cream and butter was no problem at all, just the milk for some strange reason. Whether it was the lactose or the protiens in it or not I have no idea but it only took about a week to make all the difference so it's worth checking out.

My kiddo had seizures(no genetic issues, im convinced it was caused by aluminum in the vaccinations). Anyway, we tried the meds first and while it stopped the seizures, she lost her personality. We went through 18 months of the worst, darkest time of my life. I thought I’d never see my child smile or laugh again. Doctors couldn’t help, supplements couldn’t help. Ketogenic diet helped, it saved all of us. After 3 months her seizures were gone. After 9 months something magical happened and we got her back. Just one day at the age of 5 she told us she was not sick anymore. I’ll be forever grateful to those who discovered ketogenic diet. She is almost 8 now, hasn’t had seizures in over 3.5 years, top of her class in all subjects.
Wonderful story. Thank you. I am so happy for you.
Your story made me cry. Blessings to your family!
We go through fires so we can in turn help so many others. You have a testimony to share. 😘
Your story is such an inspiration!!!! Thank you for sharing. Please share this everywhere. It is the grass roots revolution. God bless you and your family!
Very sad beginnings with a good outcome, thank goodness!
As an aside, aluminum is not an ingredient in immunizations. We all must be wise about what we listen to
The line, "we eat by the food pyramid, die by the food pyramid, and look like the food pyramid." Is pure gold
Mark Wilton is
Ha ha ha! I know. Humans suck, we should laugh at them. Ha Ha Ha! Right?
Pure gold!😂👍
This is why so many people in the US are bloated up like whales.

Some years ago when my doctor told me I had type 2 diabetes, I asked him if I could still eat fruit. He said, "You can eat all the fruit you want. You are glucose intolerant, not fructose intolerant." And that's not the worst advice I have ever gotten from mainstream doctors. The public really needs protection from mainstream medical doctors.
Its really tough though because maybe one chapter of a textbook is spent on nutrition in med school. Physicians arent educated on it unless theyt educate themselves outside of school.
Nutrition is the basis of good health. That's why doctors don't have a clue about nutrition.
so how r you doing now? did you switch to Keto diet?
@@AlotofStuffChannel
I've been on a high carb diet all my life & have no problems.
But you know Type 2 is curable for most people, right?
Thank you Dr Fettke! I finally get the whole picture. You are my kind of doctor. I wish they were all like you. 😊
Best doctor in Australia! Love your sense of humour. Thank you so much for being honest ❤
I don't usually throw my two cents into any of these conversations on the internet because nothing usually comes from them. Here it goes. I'll tell you what a friend told me a week before he died of obesity, diabetes and heart disease. He said, Brian what I've learned after going through all this Agony with diabetes . we don't need to eat as much food as we think we do. And from experience I can tell you he's right I've cut my eating habits down to one meal a day.I don't eat junk food anymore and I eat very little fruit just on occasion. I know for a fact that if you eat like that you can have a piece of pie or some ice cream sometime. you can have a little bit of pasta. you can eat some steak. We don't even need to eat everyday. Enough said I can't believe I even made a comment on the internet. you all take care. One more thing I do limit my sugar intake which I think is really important. That includes my carbohydrate intake.
I'm not criticizing but if we watched the same video, you can see that Dr. Fettke would tell you that if you think eating pie and ice cream and pasta is good for you, you need to rewatch the video until it sinks in. We all think we can eat a little of this and a little of that and at the end of the day, 40, 50, 60% of our calories come from carbohydrates and that is the primary source of inflammation in the body and connected to the very obesity, diabetes and heart disease that killed your friend. All carbohydrates, and I mean all, are sugar. Carbohydrates are literally chains of sugar molecules, be it table sugar, honey, broccoli or kale. This is what the doctor said in his lecture. Yes fructose and simple sugars are treated differently by the body, but all carbs are still sugar. There is not much difference between eating a bowl of pasta noodles and a half a bowl of sugar.
@@johnnypenso9574 what a nonsense, even proteins become glucose in the right conditions. I eat 600-700g non-wheat carbs a day. My bmi is 19.23. Within these 700g per day there is maximum dozens grams of sugars from vegetables. If I ate 700 g of sugar a day I would be dead.
Johnny Penso did you actually read Brian’s comment? You say you aren’t criticising and then go on to do exactly that.
Brain Murphy Brian, like you I have a mom at deaths door with related symptoms from diabetes in denial... I've mostly gone to a keto type and one meal per day, sometimes a single meal other times a small window of 2-4 hours... With changes I don't feel hungry ever... I've leaned up and lost about 13kg in 4 to 5 weeks... I feel my attention and focus and awareness and - well I could go in.... But it feels at another level.
@Michał Michalak
Regardless of your BMI, you should have your A1C, CRP and trigs checked, you might be in for a rude surprise. I was you a decade ago, and I was on a real tailspin soon thereafter, which, thanks to almost complete elimination of carbs and eventually going carnivore.
Thanks for sharing Dr Gary Fettke. You're a rock star!
Recent studies shows that lack of vitamin D may correlate with depression, and now he shows that lack of vitamin D cause inflammation and inflammation causes depression, we are getting somewhere.
So basically, not living how we naturally evolved to live over millions of years, is causing all these modern health issues lol.
Another well known Orthopaedic Surgeon was also cautioned and targeted for using nutrition to help his patients, and that is Dr. Shawn Baker. Well known carnivore and athlete.
He is great definitely sounds like he was targeted
Ye he is great, so is Bart Kay.
Thank you for going against APHRA & having the courage to stand up against the mainstream consensus.
You mean AHPRA.
You are a good man, Dr Gary, and smarter than you say ;) God bless you!!!!
I love this channel. The information from these Doctors is priceless. I could watch this stuff for hours.
I do watch for hours!!👍😀💪💦🥓🥚🥒🥦🥥🍎🥩🥗🥑🌶🧀🍋
maryann evans me too
lol, been watching for days, really bingeing this stuff atm.
I've watched "this stuff for hours" every day for over a year now. I feel I know more than my doctors on these subjects and that scares the crap out of me .
I DO watch it for hours!
@21:07 - @22:51 Excellent point about LDL and Vitamin D. Worth hearing again.
Thank you Dr Fettke, your talk is brilliant, so happy that I discovered Low Carb Down Under, my husband and I have already commenced the change to LCHF
For me, eating fruit, especially grapes, is no different than eating chocolate or a piece of pie. Just sets me off on a sugar eating binge. On the rare occasions I do eat fruit, it is blueberries or strawberries.
Same here
@@CatsLivesMattter Here too
Yeah same here. I thought eating fruit was so healthy... don't get me wrong it's filled with nutrients but it's also filled with sugar and can be just addictive as sweets. It sucks but fruit sends me into binges as well so it's best just to avoid them. I've been eating a more Mediterranean style diet these past few months during my pregnancy which has tasted amazing but tbh I need control. I've gained so much weight already and my inflammation is back full force I can't even wear my wedding ring ugh. My doctor gave me the ok on a more Mediterranean style keto or clean keto so I've started that today and I'm watching this while enjoying my allotted one cups of coffee a day lol keto coffee at that. Normally wake up starving lately which I did but since I started drinking my fatty coffee my hunger has subsided already. Oh forgot to mention that I was keto for 1 and a half years before this pregnancy and I lost 65lbs so needless to say is I love me some keto Haha. This time around isn't focused on weight loss, its focused on reducing inflammation and joint pain and also to help control my bloating and gas. Haha ok I'm done.
Yes, I love fruit & grapes are the worst, just make me unwell, pretty much straight away, I need to go & lie down at 6 pm.
There is more fructose in fruit than sugar in most other food. A banana raises blood sugar way more than 2 Snickers bars.
Excellent info. I've been doing keto for 6 months. I lost 36lbs and feel great
Went Keto in January 2019, went Carnivore Aug. 2019 for an inflammatory disorder which let to a total hip replacement at age 46, still need a knee replacement. I am healthier than I have ever been !! I am down 50 lbs and have more energy than when I was 30. I feel fantastic! I only wish I had known more about NO carb, low carb, healthy fats a long time ago.
Weight loss is just a side benefit of keto.
@@prashanthb6521 So whats the actual benefit?
On every health video on youtube, Simone claims to have gone keto for six months and they’ve lost 36 lbs. Ive been calling keto, ‘the 36 pound diet’ for a while now. But good for you!
@@acidali01 improved my mental problems in my case. I have BPD type II and it improved my mood greatly.
Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant!
Brilliant video. Great personality. Very engaging. An important and honest message about nutrition that people need to know because of the centuries of misinformation. People need the truth so they can make informed decisions about their lifestyles. The misinterpretation and promoting of bad science behind nutrition is truly shocking. 100 years of food myths and deep seated cultural ideas around eating prevents the message getting through. Though, at least in UK and Australia where healthcare is free (ish) I’m convinced there’ll be a financial breaking point (due to the medical servicing of underlying nutritional diseases) where the authorities will have no option but to correct the messages, else face financial disaster (that tax payers won’t be able to afford).
Oh, I DO hope you are right, but I fear here in the states that we will go broke before the greedy food and pharm industries will EVER recommend a truly healthy diet.
Gary is one of the greats of this arena and love listening to him
Cholesterol is actually not bad, it is good, it's objective is to solve the problems with fat in the blood, make steroid hormones like vitamin D and testosterone, etc, when it's concentration is high, people don't have to get it down, people have to discover the reason why the body is producing it, because it is not what's causing the problem, the body is producing it because it's trying to solve the problem, getting it down will just slow down the healing process of the real problem you have, that's what conventional medicine is about today, treating the symptom not the cause.
perfectly said my brother. The question is why, what is causing the problem?
Daniel Macedo .GO TO OR READ THE MEDICAL MEDIUM BOOKS👌
Exactly. Cholesterol has been the bad guy all these years when the real culprit has been hiding in plain sight. Sugar.
I tell people this all the time. And that Lipitor is the biggest, most dangerous hoax ever pulled on the population. Our body is always trying to fix us (except when a gene badly mutates). We should never be trying to stop the body from making something So vital to our health and our brains that the body makes it itself and doesn't trust us to eat enough! It's stupid, dangerous, ignorant, and arrogant. And it does harm, not good.
@@patriot20000 Exactly! I tell everyone NOT to take their statin. I stopped mine in Jan. of 2018 and never looked back. I'd have huge arguments with my doctor about this but I stuck to my guns because I knew he was ignorant about cholesterol. It's a shame that I know more than my doctor about this!
Doctors like this one know what's good you because they've been through the wringer and know what it's like to be sick, so they can fix the problem. They know how to do it. Thanks doc.
I did! 76 yrs old; no medication whatsoever, no sugar! only organic whole food.
There’s a good book called “How I Healed My Arthritis”. Another good one is called “The Miracle of Fasting”.
Intermittent fasting definitely works! My twin sister started January 13th 2020 weighing 213 lb, and today February 9 2020, she's weighing in at 201lbs. Stay consistent and be patient
Great presentation on inflammation! I understand it a lot better now. I’ve always prided myself on staying away from margarine, high fructose corn syrup and partially hydrogenated oils. After watching this, I realized that I have been eating store-bought salad dressings that use these crappy polyunsaturated fats like soybean oil. Ugh this stuff sneaks into everything. Gonna have to bite the bullet and make my own using the good stuff. Everything needs to be made from scratch if you really want to know what’s going in it.
Condiments are not welcome in my diet. If I have to mask the taste of the food, I don't eat that food 😊
An excellent presentation that could be used to initiate the uninformed or ill-informed. Spread it far and wide.
This is brilliant (and vitally important to know and act upon). Thank you for posting!
This is by far the most enlightening talk on nutrition that I have ever watched on RUclips... thank you Dr Fettke for breaking it down so solidly for me. In the past I thrived on a raw food diet of fruits n veggie shakes (I'm in Africa - plenty of vitamin D here fortunately!) but was unable to keep that up due to its restrictive and time consuming tendencies. Ive always wondered what about it made me feel so great and so full of energy and above all helped me rid my body of increasingly nagging symptoms of arthritis!
I have just experienced a eureka moment.. Its not what I was putting in my body that made me feel great, its what I WASN'T putting in it. ie the polyunsaturated "vegetable " cooking oils. I don't know how to thank you for this revelation. God bless you! I look forward to hearing more from you.
Now to look for cooking oil substitutes... I'll start with coconut oil.. its available n affordable where I live. I hope your theory holds up.
The best fats to cook in are good, old-fashioned lard and tallow (but any highly saturated fat ~ like coconut fat, butter, and palm fat, will do nicely. Vary these by _what_ you're cooking. For example, to cook a steak, I think you can't beat butter; but fried/roast veggies, like pumpkin, are better with lard; and if you're going to have a rare, small amount of potato, tallow can't be surpassed).
With lard and tallow you'll notice incredible flavour in your fried and roast foods, and unmatched cooking-properties and performance, with a much easier-to-clean stove afterwards (just remember a good cooking-apron, because, even though it is easier to clean off after cooking, real fat spits _a lot_ more than the toxic seed oils [due to its natural water content]; so you might also want to buy yourself a frying-pan mesh cover).
Unrefined coconut oil is mechanically, not chemically, processed. Avoid copra processed coconut oil.
Ghee is wonderful.
I healed from IIBS and rheumatoid arthritis by ditching sugar carbs and seed oils. Ten years on I have embraced a more carnivore diet amd my health has improved further.
In the 70's we also started to not feed our babies breast milk for long enough. The rates have never recovered. I think it's significant in the obesity epidemic also. The overuse of infant formula products aka the first processed food.. Someone please study this!
There was a huge push for formula by the 1960s; tons of TV commercials.
During Emergencies in poor countries they would ship lots of formula, causing women to stop breastfeeding, and babies would become dependent on formula, and rates of deaths would increase because:
•Unclean water needed to make formula caused diseases increased deaths in those under age 3.
•Formula was expensive, after supply of formula to country in emergency stopped after 6 months, the people had not enough money to feed babies formula. So they use other white powders with nearly no nutrition, babies get sick and die easily.
Coffee whitener is one such powder.
This is still happening.
As a worse case scenario, mother should drink formula, and breastfeed baby.
I bet there are plenty of studies on this. One just has to hunt for it. This sort of data is usually suppressed by the food industry.
And I wouldn't be surprised if those mothers that needed formula because they were unable breastfeed just because of non-proper human diet.
I’m trying to make my poor metabolic health better, that started its downfall with spinal fusions and the medications needed to help me be somewhat pain free for the last 35+ years…..I felt so sorry for your situation when I saw you on Dr Chaffee. You are a legend, and where the truth hurts, it can also heal….😊❤
Thank you Dr. Gary Fettke,
Great post!! Finding fresh food can be a big challenge! We need more natural local food for All!
An excellently educational and enjoyable video. Living in Scotland where we have a dark winter and long sunny summer I believe that the role of vitamin D has been long underestimated. You shone light on it for me today. Thanks
Just like in Canada, with long, dark, cold winters and very short summers that have adequate UVB sunlight.
Thanks for sharing! Gut health is so important to help curb inflammation! Some common mistakes to be careful of when trying to fix your gut health include: adding a probiotic to help with excessive gas and bloating (that's just one piece of the puzzle), eliminating a food for 4 days and expecting it solve the issue (will take at least 2 weeks), and not thinking about root causes!
I strongly agree with his hypothesis.

Kicked carbs to the kerb five years ago. Do not regret it at all. Food freedom and health at last.
Good to see him back doing lectures. Would like to know the back story and what his lawyers have to say bout his public speaking.
Just watched your interview for Diet Doctor. More or less the entire history (potted version 😉) of the anti meat agenda. Completely illuminating! One if the best if not THE best of the Diet Doctor interviews here on You Tube. I've been on LCHF for some considerable time now and lost three stones, moreover I feel better than I have for a long time and various ailments have simply dissolved away during this period. I'm about to watch other of your input on here and elsewhere. Your presentation was excellent too and I'm terming that interview as Food For Thought personally. Thank you.
Have you seen Gary's Wife's talk " Belinda Fetkke - Nuturtion Science: How did we get here?"
Joel Wallach has been talking about all this for 30+ years. Glad to see someone is catching up.
So glad to have come across him.
We stand before the golden door
Man’s hope for freedom evermore
By GOD we’re given this great task
To guard this gate, YOU SHALL NOT PASS!!
I learned all this and started practicing it in the early 90's before it was really talked about. I rarely consume (except I am sure when eating out) any of the standard polyunsat veg oils or grains. From his lectures my worse offense is that I do eat berries year round with my breakfast.
Little sin that brain health approves :)
i devour dark red grapes through one whole month a year. My feast time. Still struggling with coffee but already limited to every second days only.
body needs balance in everything
some natural stressors and inflammation itself has also some use if limited and healed afterwards.
As well as insulin spikes.
Like our immune system keep shape naturally & like exercise, heat or cold exposure conditions healthy body
Many small changes & agreeing with natural cycles make massive difference.
Me too. I've never really used those oils. It's always been butter olive oil and coconut oil
I’m type2, none of my GPs have told me that type2 can be put in remission. I also have hypertension and on meds for it, my GPs don’t even realise (or pass on) that healing my body is possible just by cutting carbs sugar and seed oils - this has been around for enough years they have no excuse- I’m really po’d.
I’ve gone carnivore and fermented foods, losing weight and HBA1c has dropped significantly and I’m aiming for “normality” once that happens I’m ditching statins and challenging my BP meds. 178cm at this point 80kg.
Excellent info. I've been doing keto . I lost 36lbs and feel great
LCHF /carnivore is the best lifestyle! No grains , no potatoes, no fruits and no added sugars!
Agree totally.
Imagine if we all did the right things. Ate correctly, exercised, listen to what Dr Fettke is saying and did the right thing. We would put so many out of work. In the USA, $1 of every $4 in medical is spent of Diabetes, let me say that again, $1 in $4 USD......So the follow on, less medical staff as we would have less patients, less external medical services, medical centres, Paramedics. If we did the correct thing we would have no McDonald's, Hungry Jacks etc, obesity, would be in the past and the need for medications greatly reduced. What would that do to the economies of the world. Dr Fettke is the start of a very slow smouldering fire that needs to be heard, and heard bu the people who do not want to listen. Seriously, I love my chips, chocolate, honey on toast, and sausages etc. But I am starting to listen and take note.
Nothing wrong with sausages (as long as they're real, old-fashioned butcher's snags [or homemade], that are made of *meat and fat* [with added herbs, spices and veggies if desired], and _not_ 'padded-out' with carbs).
The same is true of _dark_ chocolate (70% or higher), in moderation -- and it's positively LOADED with minerals (far more than any piece of fruit; just as liver is more vitamin-dense).
There are plenty of low-carb chip recipes out there (made of baked cheese and spices usually), and they're delicious.
And you can still have toast (I'd die without my vegemite toast!) ~ just make the bread keto-friendly and home-made.
Sinnergism True. I’ve found some sausages (chipolatas)in Waitrose (UK) which are around 2 grams per hundred(from free range pigs). I can live with that...
The earlier the better... it is easier to achieve optimal weight when you are younger... not impossible, just much easier.
The goal is improved health, drop inflammation, feel great, and try to avoid expensive prescription medications due to side effects of insulin resistance. Instead spend money on fun activities, nice house...
After eating first keto and now carnivore, my overweight physician said I had lost too much weight. He like other people including members of my family, do not know what a healthy person looks like. They are all overweight.
Ignore them darling. Go back to watching movies from the 60s. That's what healthy people looked like back then. That what you should be looking like. Eat some liver and bacon for breakky.
Excellent talk
Great information but man that dry mouth almost got me! Thanks for your time and expertise!🙏🏻
Absolutely brilliant
Someone, please, get that man a drink of water..... other than that-- wonderful education here! Thank you!
That was an eye-opener. Anyone who cooks knows that seed oils oxidize more easily that grease/lard, etc. What I didn't know was that the kind of fat you eat gets incorporated into your tissue, cell walls, etc. So if you eat seed oils, your cell walls have polyunsaturated fats in them--fats that are easily oxidized.
LDL is a natural chemical. It becomes dangerous, mostly, when it is oxidized or glycated.
Good information presented in a way that anyone can understand. Thank you.
Totally fascinating talk and just what I needed to hear as I've been suffering with a sugar addiction for years, chocolate, bread, crisps you name it.
I have been dabbling with an Ayurvedic way if eating for about 3 months, but only this month I discovered a quick fix to my sugar addiction as my sugar addiction was still present. I found constitution Bitters in my local Asian store (struggled with it at first as it's not pleasant to taste, but now look forward to it EVERY morning). After about a week I realised that I wasn't craving sugar anymore and I don't "fart all day" 😁 (what a bonus for everyone walking behind me)
It's winter here in the UK so I'll ensure that I take my vitamin D supplements every day to maximize the benefits.
Thanks for slotting everything into place, hopefully now I'll get rid of my brain fog, chronic fatigue and other inflammation in my body.

Hi Gary
Thanks for the witty, visually pleasing, comprehensive, uncluttered and simple presentation. This makes so much sense. Thanks for curating the information so that we all can be more aware. I am a nutrition enthusiast, and on the verge of reversing my diabetes. I am keenly interested in living long and healthy. What you say is similar what some of our ancestors from the Indus Valley said. In fact nutrition was biggest science then and the cook was the doctor.
I have few questions for you, are carbohydrates from grains for example rice, sorghum, pearl millet, foxtail millet and so on as bad as from fruits? I am from India and we eat loads of seasonal millets.
Are Vegetables, which grow on the contaminated soils, or animals who consume them are safe for us to eat? Isn’t that altering the content of the fats that you are mentioning for example clarified cow butter?
What about Lactose? Eat seems no carbohydrates are good.
You are right… largely we are doomed, Thanos seem to have clicked his fingers long time ago or Shiva opened his 3rd eye…may be we are not fit for earth.
Thanks & Regards
Raghu
I worry about ghee that is clarified using solvents.
So, if I understand it correctly, polyunsaturated fats are bad in combination with carbs...... That makes sense. High carb plant based advocates are always promoting low fat. That's because fat in combination with a lot of carbs is unhealthy.
The the keto proponents avoid this bad combination by eliminating the carbs as much as possible.
It all makes sense.
What is not clear to me is what the ideal ratios are on keto. Omega 3 to omega 6 to saturated fat. And if there even is such a thing as ideal ratio of these fats on keto.
Peter, I find I do best eating some healthy carbs (potatoes,beets, carrots) and some healthy fats (grass-fed butter, olive oil), but not go overboard. Then focus mostly on non-starchy vegetables. Grass fed eggs, meat and fish in moderation, and not every day, either. This is my focus. 🙂
the "healthiest" omega3:omega6 ratio is 1:1
Daniel Muñoz I don’t think that is correct. It’s much closer to 2omega 3 to 1omega 6 and possibly even higher omega 3 ratio.
Peter Faber
Example the typical doughnut is the WORST FOOD ! Fats and carbohydrates!
Processed seed oils are inflammatory .....period.
Has anyone tested these theories on people eating food grown in balanced microbial soils? I had the most significant change in my health eating normally, but getting greens grown in our garden. I felt incredible. I think it was the higher mineral and microbial activity in my gut.
I do believe there is a case for plants being less nutritious today than say 70 or 80 years ago before we started bombing them with NPK etc, I still believe the mineral content of plants however they are grown is offset by the anti-nutrient factors, in other words, the more nutritionally dense they become, the stronger the defenses of the plant could potentially become. I used to totally agree with what you say (have done a LOT of research into growing nutritionally dense food myself ) but now having ditched almost all plants and only eating organic plants when I do, even the best greens don't make me feel as good as a 100% animal foods diet does. Plants and I, we have broken up for good lol. I do still like to grow nutritionally dense greens, I feed them to my ducks instead and my word you have never seen egg yolks as orange :-)
Can I assume that the Title of the slide at time 17:57 should read "Uric Acid Inhibits Nitric Oxide"?
Thank you I enjoyed your presentation!
Love his sense of humor!
Great information! Thank you for posting this.

Orthopaedic surgeon speaks about nutrition and includes autism spectrum into a category of mental illnesses and modern diseases. My gosh, all of this should be reviewed...
I’ve had brain surgery, I like to tell people I’ve had my brain stirred with a stick!

Intermittent fasting
It's useless if you break the fast and eat like shit! Other than that very affective!
Get Ripped !!! no money no problem !!
I fast 10-12 hours a day with only 2 heavy meals.
Was there a typo on the Power Point slide @18:00 ? Wasn't it supposed to read: Uric Acid Inhibits Nitric Oxide? Nevertheless, Fettke gives a great lecture here. I love this guy! For anyone who would like to convince their friends who still want to believe that fruit is a "health food," just tell them to Google search images of "wild fruits and vegetables" or "what fruits and vegetables looked like before human intervention." If THAT'S what they believe will sustain a human diet, then good luck with that! LOL
Loved the presentation.
I have ankylosing spondylitis, and avoid processed foods and eat inimal starch. I'm unclear if Gary hasn't read or is disregarding the peer reviewed papers of Prof. Ebringer et al. His research specifically links starch to Ankylosing Spondylitis. Anecdotally, I have had inflammatory responses from eating fish and chips, which incidentally is high in starch. Anecdotally, I respond favorably to tea made from tumeric.
Fish & chips are cooked in inflammatory processed seed oils.
Grains are inflammatory, especially for those with autoimmune disease. Fish is covered in flour or corn starch.
You might even have Celiac Disease. Gluten is hidden in nearly everything.
Excess insulin from excess glucose will increase odds of acquiring Type 2 Diabetes, but even Type 1 Diabetes for those with autoimmune diseases.
Excellent info.
Interesting point at the 25 minute mark.
Are you no longer on Instagram? I just did a search (@thegaryscience) and nothing showed up.
Would you please define "room temperature"? My coconut oil is liquid in the summer, but very, very solid in winter. All indoors, stored in a cool dark shelf.
bintbaladi13 olive oil doesn't solidify unless you put it in the fridge. Coconut oil only melts when it's hot.. at least mine does. Unrefined coconut oil.
Coconut oil melts at 76 degrees
Australian room temperature, not like in Canada.
It is always solid here, lol
Suggest your viewers also look at Dr Rhonda Patrick lecture series on diets and epigenetics and their relationship. This biochemist gives you the in depth science behind this topic.
I will look up her work thank you.
In US many doctors are also working for Wall St. corporations.
Brian Murphy I can see why u don't often comment lots of very passionate comments out there some sounding quite rude ( thinking they're missing something in their diet maybe their diet is too restricted )
I liked your comment and your honesty and that even though you're passionate you're polite. Yeah and if you all out there in comment land see mine is too long and it bothers you just skip it that's what a polite person would do 🌿
Nice and easy to watch, thanks
Those refine carbs lacks a lot of fiber! Here in the Philippines, we eat rice & root crops. When eating carbs, make sure to eat carb sources that are rich in resistant starch. Or eat lots of fibrous foods together with your rice in a meal.
The Philippines have one levels of the highest in Type 2 Diabetes and Gout.
Interesting talk. I liked it a lot. Thank you!
Someone give this man some water dammit! 😒
Someone give him an upper.
Alejandro every one comments that on his talks lol..
fr he was so thirsty I started drinking water
Salivary glands are often damaged by radiation, and chemo following brain cancer surgery, leaving your mouth very dry.
Moderation is the key. Our ancestors didn't have Walmart supercenters. You had to burn a lot of calories to get your meal. Didn't have processed food ether. We may have a modern society but as far as our genes go we are still ancient humans. Interesting lecture but reminds me of a monotoned soft talking professor I had in college. I would fall asleep in class no matter how interesting the subject.
So if I eat a ‘moderate’ amount of sugar, I should be fine?
This is directly a recommendation from the gov’t and dietetic association that made us all ill.
Excellent information. Yet, many questions and few answers.
SANDMAN XIV - You must be new to this, the research is overwhelmingly in support.
Very interesting; I wish we could have subtitles though, english is not my native tongue and I had some trouble understanding him sometimes

Acidosis is the only disease
- “The idea behind the whole thing is to keep your body basic, thereby eliminating dietary and metabolic acids, preventing the biological transformation of body cells into microforms, and ensuring radiant health. To that end, you’re going to focus on foods that alkalize your body and avoid those that acidify it. All food ingested releases electrons for energy, leaving an ash residue. This ash residue can be neutral, acidic, or alkaline, depending mostly on the mineral content of the original food. For example, potassium, calcium, magnesium, sodium, zinc, silver, copper, and iron form basic ash; sulfur, phosphorus, chlorine, and iodine leave acid ash. Most elements are alkaline. Fortunately for us, it is easy to categorize which foods leave which kind of ash. In general, animal foods-meat, eggs, dairy-processed and refined foods, yeast products, fermented foods, grains, artificial sweeteners, sweet fruit, and natural and artificial sugars are acidifying, as are alcohol, coffee, chocolate, black tea, and sodas. Vegetables, on the other hand, are alkalizing. That includes a few that are technically fruits: avocado, tomato, cucumber, bell pepper. A few nonsweet citrus fruits, such as grapefruit, lemon, and lime, are also basic in the body, as are sprouted seeds, nuts, and grains. Grains are acidifying, though a few (millet, buckwheat, and spelt) are only very mildly so. Raw foods are more alkalizing, while cooked food is more acidifying. We measure alkalinity and acidity along the pH scale. pH stands for “the potential of hydrogen”-its proton concentration. The pH scale also measures the potential of hydroxyl ions, or electron concentration. Foods saturated with hydroxyl ions, or electrons, are alkaline. Foods saturated with hydrogen ions, or protons, are acidic. In this way, the pH scale is also a measurement of the electrical energy in food or drink. Alkaline foods are full of electrons or electrical energy. Electrons are, in fact, what make them alkaline. This is the energy the body runs on. You can measure it, as I do, with an alkaline electron meter. Alkaline foods provide electron energy to the body; acidic foods pull electron energy from the body. It’s not much different, at heart, from batteries: New alkaline batteries are full of energy-they are saturated with electrons. Dead batteries have been drained of electrons, and they are acidic-saturated with protons. Among many other things, electrons aid in digestion. Electrons or alkaline compounds are called upon to buffer the enzymes or acids of the food. Whatever the acids or enzymes within the food, the body will release alkaline compounds or electrons to buffer them. The lower the acidity of the food, the fewer alkaline buffers or electrons are required. The fewer that are required, the more the alkaline reserves and energy of the body are preserved. The conservation of all that potential, then, provides a boost in your overall energy. The body can make more alkaline buffers and provide more electrons or electrical energy, instead, for use by organs and tissues carrying on their metabolic functions, and to provide repairs associated with environmental, dietary, and/ or metabolic acid or mycotoxic damage.”

Excellent info. feels great
While having open heart surgery in dec 2016, as a type 2 diabetic I thought my meals was as they said diabetic meals? I hardly take any T2 medication just keep of sugar ect. While in hospital they was giving me Insulin inchections? When I aked why? I was told my sugar reading was 20? becuase of the stress? the Endocrnologist came in and said it was not the sweets? The chocolate mouse was great? first and last hospital sweet, my sugar was reading a lot lower, Not reading 20, refused injections, the nurses told Endocrnologist, boy was she mad with me I said if over 12 I will consider allowing insulin. Off she went as I said the food is full of sugar. I READ THE REPORT AT BUTTOM OF BED, DO NOT CALL ME AGAIN FOR THIS PATIENT. The prove 1/some around 20 but no readings near 20 2/ While waiting to leave the meals lady asked did I want a sweet with a smile, "yes a reason" I ate it and was home within 45min and took a reading you guesed 20 reading. I was also had a reaction so no insulin then no statin, which was the problem. I have 4 boxes on insulin, worth $1000 ?. What are we all being given? to keep the medical industry wealthy.
I have no idea what you wrote there...
Think I got the gist of it.
If you ever have to go to hospital again, bring you own low carb food.
Surgery increases cortisol, a stress hormone.
Higher cortisol = higher blood sugar temporarily.
Hopefully, now that you are home, you resume the right diet to heal quickly, and hopefully, never need to go to hospital again.
Interesting claim about uric acid... the foods that are supposed to create uric acid are beef, pork, most seafood, organ meat, oatmeal, spinach, cauliflower, mushrooms, cabbage... I think peaches and tomatoes too... there may be more... find someone with gout (like me) and you can test out different foods and see if they spark gout... but, I usually never get a flare up when I eat a lot of fruit. And I plan to eat a bunch of peaches during next peach season to see if the recommendation to avoid them applies to me, because I love peaches. One antidote to gout, is tart cherries, although I eat lots of sweet cherries every day... and take a tart cherry supplement. Apparently, cherries help the body clear uric acid. You do not want gout. It feels like your bones (usually in the feet, but in my case mostly in my fingers) have shattered and just barely touching them, is crazy painful.
Gout is caused when mixing fruits/carbs with animal fats. The Randell cycle kicks in. Your cells create loads of inflammation. On there own fruits are not as bad. Just eating meat and fat means you don't need the fruit or carbs.
Sound like you love the gout pain instead of health
Thanks a lot doctor for this info. It was delivered in a simple manner.
I work in preventive ill health medicine--- 40 yrs on--- we have declined not improved.
Gracias por la info, muy ilustrativa.
Shame on AHPRA to caution a doctor for giving health advice ! And good one too. He, as a surgeon would see all the complications from diabetes/obesity ! A medical degree does not qualify you to give nutritional advice ???
Unfortunately, the medical establishment, to this day, is still going along with the SAD (standard American diet) so I would never take advice from them where nutrition is concerned as they do not receive any training in this. The SAD advice came from the food industry not the scientific community. Thank RUclips for medical people who have done independent research into this!
He didn't mention eggs as being a healthy fat or Olive Oil as being healthy at all. As far as i know it's more of a monounsaturated fat.
Eggs are great, Bart Kay backs these.
Thank you
This was very interesting to watch after Low Craqb Houston 2019, especially the presentations by David Diamond, Ivor Cummins, Jeffry Gerber, Siobhan Huggins, and Dave Feldman. I have a question about hormone known as vitamin D, where is it assembled by the body? Does the bacteria in the small intestine have anything to do with the assembly of D (D2/D3?) and which bacteria help to build D2 /D3? Does wearing UV blocking glasses, sunhats and long sleeves impact D production? Thank you once again Gary.
I'm aware that sunscreens, hats and clothing prevent the production of vitamin d. I take d3 supplement
Is there a website we can trust that will tell us decent options as to what we can eat and be reasonably healthy?
