- Brendan Reid is a former fat broadcaster turned fat software developer. He lives in Dunedin, New Zealand, now minus the fat. After finally losing more than 50kg (111 pounds) in under two years, Brendan's original weight loss success story was featured on Diet Doctor in 2017 and since 2019 he has spoken of his experience at live events both at home and overseas. Between his ongoing work and video game habits, his book 'The Fat Ginger Nerd' took around five years to write and around forty years to live.

Thanks to low carb I am no longer a slave to food. I went low carb to remit my diabetes, achieved successfully in less then 3 months, and I've lost 37 lbs (80kgs down to 63kgs) without trying. I'm a 65 yo F.
Hi! What would your average carb intake be per day? Just windered as i just started low carb but not sure really whats classed as low carb say under 50g of carbs per day? Best to ask people who do it instead of google!
@@matrich1983 It depends and some people are different. I kicked my journey off with one meal a day and around 70-100grams of carbs. Mostly complex or fermented, and some beer. I stumbled on it and weight was still coming off, early on. I said, wait they say it is fattening. No its not. Everyone's different. It's already fermented. The alcohol needs to be delt with. But then again, i can go on rice or potatoes with butter or animal fats laid in it and it holds the weight off.
What's your plan, what are your goals. Do you have medical problems that need remedied.
Check out dr feng fasting, that was way more effective than sweating what the food was.
But for sure, no seed oils if you are trying to lose weight.
Eat butter or tallow(beef fat), no fried foods from eating out, ever again. I'm here if you need more or have questions.
@scoobtoober2975 hi buddy thanks for the reply! Yes been a type 1 diabetic for 33 years so absolutely no curing it as my pancreas just gave up when I was 7 years old and 6 stone! I had severe retinopathy last year and had bleeds in my eye and went blind but aurgery corrected it now my right eye is amazing and have bleeds in my left but currently awaiting surgery! Seems low carb is THE way to go! And i still cannot believe the medical practice are not advocating the low carb approach! Eat whatever and do your insulin its no bother! They say, it's the up and downs over the years has caused it! have been reading up on Dr.Bernstein and the greatness he has done with his diet he seems to go 30g and under a day and is fit and healthy at 89 I couldn't believe it so started researching him and am half way through his book currently! I enjoy a beer or three myself mate so to ease into it have swapped the beers for gin and diet lemonade for now! Love a guiness to they are 10g carbs a can so it can be done! The more and more people I speak to the more and more advocate the low carb approach and the numbers speak for themselves and a lot of the medical community still says against it! It really wants looking at! Would like to shed some weight a bit more goal is 12.5 stone currently at 14 now down from 15.5 snd above all blood sugars to be down more and stable and once they are down i can have my vasectomy (long story lol) they are on their way down thanks to cutting carbs! Will check out Dr feng also thankyou! A how about you mate what's your story?
A well-organised testimonial. Many thanks to the speaker.🙏🙏🙏
We have an obvious bias in pretty much all western countries against low carb, paleo, keto, carnivore. The real question is why is this bias actually so pervasive and why would government bodies have such a bias?? Who benefits when obvious effective alternatives to a way of eating and becoming metabolically healthy are either suppressed or objectively dismissed as "unhealthy"? The food companies, the medical industry, and the pharmaceutical industry all control those in the ministries of health/dietary guidelines. It's simply not good business for programs and dietary guidelines to be truly effective. If we are eating less and eating more natural foods grown by local farmers where's the big business in that???
I had a very similar fat loss journey to Brendan over the past 9 months and the amount I have discovered in my personal enlightenment is astounding (at least to myself). Once you finally have your eyes opened and your mind free, it is impossible not to see the intentional harm being perpetuated upon a trusting populace by those that are will to sacrifice millions in the pursuit of profit.
The Bias Exists because Western Interests Produce mostly all the Junk Food on the planet. Like "Satan casting out Satan"!
Intentional harm. Yes.
Why would people who want to help us do something like that???
Is it possible their intentions are NOT honourable?
Amongst the jabs, the diets, the mandates and the economic disaster the really rich don't want us to thrive?
They don't desire a healthy population but instead a cohort of sickly, tired, unhealthy and dependent workers?
You decide.
Yep. We have been misled FOR PROFIT my entire life. We are the cattle.
Very good presentation. I went from vegan back to vegetarian to completely reverse an infiltrated fatty liver. Took six months, lost initially 11kg ( now settled at 9kg) all of it abdominal fat which was barely noticeable until it came off. Bloods are perfect. I now use intermittent fasting a couple of times a week. Got rid of potatoes, cereal and pasta and added in open range eggs, vintage cheese and plain Greek yoghurt. Reduced fruit from about five pieces a day to a few berries daily and a few oranges a week. Lots of mixed salad vegetables and cauliflower and broccoli which was much the same as previously. Never felt better and has not impacted on the heavy exercise I have always done.
Very well done. Thank you for putting this together... it blew my mind as well and it explains a lot!
Most countries still advocate the use of seed oils as being a healthy choice when they are proven unstable when used in cooking and processed using bleach, caustic soda and other chemicals - So healthy.
When I ask restaurant staff if they can prepare food without seed oils, the staff look at me as if I have two heads!😮😮
Excellent work. I faced the same problem when going low carb to fix my diabetes.
Been low carb since Feb this year and in that time have lost 2.5 stone, and my bloods are in numbers I could only dream of before and they are consistent! I have two 100% time in range and the rest are in the 90% range! THANKYOU to you all and the oracle that is Dr.Bernstein! Here to stay now can't believe I didn't find this before type 1 diabetic for 34 years now and was never told about the low carb approach when diagnosed or since! It's a life changer! I am nothing short of amazed!!! Law of small numbers and I have over halfed my daily insulin long acting and before was using upto 10 units a shot on novorapid a few times a day with bloods swinging up and down and now down to 2 or 3 units a few times a day!
Could cry I'm so happy! ❤
People in Govt. are only interested in covering their own backsides. They are afraid to take a risk and change the status quo. So they are really just rearranging deck chairs. Good talk btw and congrats on the weight loss. I would like to see the authors of the recommendations put under scutiny and questioned by Low Carb Down Under.
Great presentation.
Just follow the money. It never fails to find the truth and motives.
I tried to convince my family to go low carb. Impossible. My sister loves sugar and my mom still believes fat is very bad.
Great Information, good video, Thanks
Very good presentation….. The main stream medicine is totally out of evidences
Good content.
Focus is so often on weight loss. Weight is a result of something else. Achieving metabolic health surely should be a key focus of attention, root cause, and weight optimisation is likely to follow as a natural course of the body then reaching a healthy equilibrium. Perhaps it is unfortunate that whereas weight can be measured in simple terms that people can readily understand (scale weight!), metabolic health is harder to grasp, less easy to define, rarely taking the headlines.
Could you add a link to trial documents into the description/notes, please. Thank you
Love this ❤thanks 🙏
Well presented. TY
Thank you so much. Yet we expose the obvious again.👍🥰
Thank you for this very logical analysis. Low-carb is consistent with human evolutionary history, which is my approach to evaluating any dietary/health advice. I especially appreciate your deep dive into how this data is "developed" to produce the results they want. Why do they want? Inertia, deeply invested beliefs (like the medieval Catholic Church was invested in the geocentric solar system model) and of course, the economic interests.
6 years maintenance! Congratulations
Thanks Brendan. Excellent presentation!
Evidence before our eyes 👍
Is there any sugar substitut that are ok and dont damage your gut bacteria?
I use stevia and erythritol, not much but a little now and then.
Very good presentation. We definitely need separate dietary guidelines for people who are overweight and obese.
Here in the midwest US, the 'bread-belt'', agri is based on corn and soybeans. Fields of corn and soy as far as the eye can see. Used to produce corn oil, soybean oil, feed for bovines and hogs and caged chickens (and gubmint (tax-payer)-subsidized ethanol). The health disaster that this has produced will lead to these fields reverting back to a more natural state including grazing. I look forward to this. It won't happen until people wake up and realize that plant-based fake/processed foods are making them very ill and greatly shortening their healthspans. Fake food will never work. Reject it. Eat only real foods, the stuff your body is evolved to process, the stuff your great-great grandparents ate. If we do not reject the fake/processed foods, they will keep making it, advertising it, and selling it, pharma will keep coming up with pills, and the health'care' system will continue to fail. People are too sick with metabolic syndrome, CVD, cancers, NAFLD, obesity, diabetes and then finally dementia. Untenable. Change will come.
This cannot be just a fad diet where you lose the weight and go back to eating lots of carbs. This is a lifestyle change where you have to continue the low carb diet.
Healthy eating for the rest of life. Carbs are not healthy.
There is a famous study that "proves" that low carb diets don't work, but it allowed (only) the low carb arm to not eat the diet towards the end of the study. Basically saying low carb doesn't work because if you eat 140-260g of carbs a day (as part of the low carb arm!), you gain weight again. And this study is cited a lot by opponents of low carb.
@@pepper419I get ripped on low fat high carb. We are all a bit different
18:22 After how I understand insulin's obsession to convert almost everything into fat when given 1/2 a chance the food guide recommendation is a freaking landmine.
This is very similar to the problems with the management of heart disease and diabetes. Another issue is how “low carb” is defined. 200gm/day, 100, 50, 20? The guidelines don’t say
NZ Ministry of Health should be renamed Ministry of Sickness.
The evidence and conclusions shown in this talk were so horrifying to a sane person that I almost couldn't finish watching it !
How low was your low carb diet...?
It’s criminal.
Ministry...he he. Pretty much says it all.
Who's paying them?
3:20 Those guidelines are an abomination. 500g of red meat a WEEK? Get out of here
I agree! 👍🏻🤣
That's less than 18 oz. That's two meals. Definitely too low.
Numerous religions put restrictions on meats. No mainstream religion forbids any plant
'They' fail to recognise that there IS EVIDENCE that their orthodox advice results in long term weight gain and chronic illness
Would NZ health tell a lie or at least make stuff up🤪
No, just leave out the truth. It's easy.
Every single metabolic ward controlled study has shown that when protein and calories are equated weight loss is the same for any diet
Do these studies consider the quality of these calories? If the assumption is a "calorie is a calorie" we know that there is a meaningful flaw in the methodology. Ultra-processed food, added sugar and seed oils all have established impacts on health outcomes.
Untrue and irrelevant in the real world where people need a strategy that works in the long run without outside support
@@mj8495 Calories have no effect on weight.
Nope, base metabolism goes up on keto. There is a study proving that people doing LCHF had to consume more calories to keep from losing weight. (Sorry saw it too long ago, to be willing to go look for link)
@@eliskarutteova2653 false false false.
I don't understand a word he is saying and I've been teaching English 15 years
Teaching English to whom? I'm listening on 1.5X speed and it's perfectly understandable
No problem for me. What's your native language?
Watch it again, it's really not that hard to understand.
Personally I love the notion of a “low cob” diet.😂🌽😂🌽😂🌽
Non-native speaker from Europe here. I was able to understand him perfectly. I saw the automatic RUclips transcript had some problems, but not as many as with other speakers. I assume your comment was meant as a bit of a joke, though😂
Dangerous advice. Absolutely nothing wrong with rice or potatoes. Stay away from processed foods and seed oils.
If you want diabetes just keep on with the polished white rice and white potatoes
Lol okay bro
Rice and potatoes take me right back to chronic pain, joint stiffness, reflux, BGL spikes, sleep disturbance ... I'm very pleased for you if you can eat these things but they clearly don't fit in my personal carbohydrate threshold
What is the danger?
I definitely agree with you ref seed oils and other processed edibles.
