      For epilepsy treatment, they push you to the brink of low-carb high-fat diets, a very extreme form of keto with 90% fat, 10% protein and very low carbs, if at all. The fat is so high they literally feed it through a tube.
      No wonder you dropped weight.

    As a guy who has always been overweight: i have found that the one thing that gets me to exercise most: i got a dog, and i actually care about his well being. This means i am basically forced to take him on two walks a day. Each walk is about 0.58 miles. It's not much, but it is a lot of exercise over time: enough to lose 20 lbs in a year.
    Also: having a dog means you care for his needs over your own. You may find yourself snacking less often.

      Now he walks on a harness and our morning walk is my favourite time of the day. His life us my responsibility and I pushed myself to care for him.

    • @GabrielWarlock
      @GabrielWarlock Год назад

      It heavily depends on the kind of food too. But it's safe to say a fatty food like olive oil heavily outranks everything in terms of caloric density.
      Dry pasta and cereals on the other hand have between 310-370 calories per 100g whereas meat and other protein sources can have very different calories depending on the amount of fat they come with and their moisture. Cured and deli meats are way more calorie dense than their fresh counterpart.

      @@GabrielWarlockit’s pretty simple. 1 gram of carbs is 4 calories. Same goes for protein. 1 gram of fats is 9 calories. If you have a steak with 20 grams of fat and 80 grams of protein, you’re gonna have 500 calories from that steak. There’s also water content in a lot of animal and plant based products so a 1lb piece of meat may only contain around 150-200 total grams of fat/protein combined instead of the ~440 grams in a pound because the extra weight is just water

    Tip: Eat more eggs.
    Also do RESISTANCE TRAINING over CARDIO.
    Resistance training, calisthenics, weightlifting, etc all cause muscle to become more refined and build muscle mass. By adding more muscle you are creating more opportunity for your body to burn extra energy and calories.
    Cardio just burns a set amount of calories, at that moment.
    So using the 'fire' metaphor; adding muscle is like adding more firepits. Cardio is just repeatedly adding fuel to your single firepit.

    • @GabrielWarlock
      @GabrielWarlock Год назад

      Cardio and RT are both useful. RT increases the size of mitochondria whereas cardio increases the number of mitochondria.
      This is not particularly important in weight loss, none of this will help if you're not in a caloric deficit. But it helps a lot in terms of general health

  • @llwpeaches
    @llwpeaches 3 месяца назад +1

    Complex carbs also break down into sugar, it just occurs more gradually because they're longer chains of polysaccharides. So, for someone with insulin resistance and compensatory hyperinsulinemia, they'll still cause weight gain and must also be factored into a reduced carb diet. We have to eat some carbs, so it's always better to choose complex vs simple, but it's misinformation to dismiss them as not being involved in weight gain. Higher fiber content is alao beneficial because those grams of fiber aren't metabolized and so don't spike the blood glucose levels.

      - It helps replenish liver glycogen faster
      - It's used to neutralize several compounds by making them hydrophilic and available for blood transportation
      The problem with fructose is, always, when you're taking too much of it. At that point the risk is to get fatty liver and higher glycation values in blood tests.
      But for this to happen, you need first and foremost in a calorie surplus, which truly is the silent killer to rule them all.

      @@GabrielWarlock I agree, and for most people that would be the way to go, but I view sugars just the same as cigarettes or worse. I got used to not eating sweets. And in my mind sugar only exists for sugar religious people. It still tastes good, for me too, I try it from time to time if an occasion presents itself. But the main thing and the most valuable lesson for all those who have learned that sugar=bad, is that when you go to the market to buy your groceries, or when you are a guest at some place, you view this as a sort of garbage, something inedible, something that you know other people consume because of dependancy or taste, but your relationship with sugar is completely changed. You feel like you stopped smoking or drinking too much, or taking drugs that are bad for you health. Its like you get out of that system forever, and you just do it for social occasions. And sustainable is very different for many people, if i told you I sustain myself on 7000$ a year you would think im crazy or lying. And for someone else 20 or 50 is barely manageable.

      @@Spandex08 Nothing of what you've said is crazy. I've had the same experience: I wanted to lose weight so bad I purged my diet of everything that was hyper processed or too dense in terms of calories. And it really felt good, although I kept one day a week for free meals where I could let myself go over everything I could desire.
      It was only recently that I realized that while that was a mandatory passage for me to mature a healthy way of eating, it couldn't last forever. I was pursuing an unsustainable model, that didn't account for unforeseen events or circumstances and that was slowly bringing me towards a toxic relationship with food.
      Sugar isn't bad, it's not a drug, it's not comparable to smoke or booze, not even a little. And my exclusion of it from my diet was turning me into an orthorexic mess.
      To this day, I simply count my calories and I challenge myself to make what I like fit within them. Whether it's a candy bar or a yogurt, everything is welcome.

      You may lose more weight on a high-protein diet because your body spends more energy processing dietary protein than it does carbohydrates, Wycherley says.
      Think of it this way: If you eat 100 calories of protein, your body will burn about 20 to 30 of those calories while processing the protein, says Wycherley. Compare that to 100 calories of carbs, and your body only burns about 5 to 10 calories.

    It's a bit misleading the include crisps, biscuits and muffins as simple carbs that are easy to overeat. These are also high in fat. Addictive and calorie dense carby-fatty foods are the problem. People mostly aren't getting fat just eating pasta and sauce or white bread on its own.

    5:45 when I used to weigh ~320lbs I could eat a jar and a half of peanut butter in bed easily, so, yes it's possible lmao
    Now I'm down to 210 and I had to stop buying peanut butter because I'll still go through a full jar in less than two full days every single time. It's also insanely hard to find peanut butter that doesn't have sugar as one of the first three listed ingredients, so it's best to just avoid it if you tend to over-indulge (or are clearly strangely addicted to it like me and have zero self-control whatsoever when a jar is opened)

      Yes, they do. However the difference is that your body uses protein for practically everything. From reinforcing your immune system with new protective cells such as antibodies, to using it to build new tissue in case that you exercise regularly. Carbs, on the other hand, are entering your body in order to be broken down into the particles that act as energy stores. That's why it's easier to get fat from the abuse of simple carbs rather than protein abuse --being the last one extremely rare, but possible.

    Calorie surplus makes you fat not carbs. Also just for a fyi if your ultimate goal is to lose fat you should be focusing on cutting fats over carbs as fats contain 9 calories per gram compared to the 4 calories per gram for protein and carbs. Protein and fibre are what keep you full not fat

    Nice accessible video on a topic like this.
    On a deeper level there is something else to note here that ties it all together. Carbohydrates in excess are converted to fat via denovolipogenesis, the fat which is made from this process is made up of stearic acid, a saturated fatty acid that has pro-diabetic and fatty liver promoting effects. Fructose stimulates de novo lipogenesis in much smaller quantities than glucose, so this effect will be worse when eating things that taste 'sweet' (and likely are fructose sweetened).

    I got to 90kg when my ideal weight would be 76kg, it has been a week since i started my diet with lots of fiber and a moderate amount of protein, and little complex carbs, with a estimated calories intake of 1000kcal, no exercise due to a recent surgery, and im already at 87,20.
    Drastically reducing simple carbs intake is the key and limiting the calories intake is the key for weight loss, but beware that your brain will complain a lot about it, on the first days it was hard to resist the craving of eating some cookies or some chips.

      Gratz on the weight loss. I lost 80 lb on a whole food-plant based diet which is somewhat similar to what you described. I didn't eat the diet for weight loss but for the lowering of high serum cholesterol, which dropped from 210 mg/dl (high being above 200) to 125 (anything below about 150 is ideal). I also fixed high blood pressure and a high resting heart rate.
      I had been on heart rate and blood pressure medication for a long time. It would have been possible to fix those problems through diet much, much earlier but I didn't understand the true effectiveness of such a diet. It does taste awesome though after a search for foods I like.

    Its so strange when people are talking about how bad is to eat simple carbs like donuts etc. But the most amount of calories are coming from fat. Lets take a look the nutrients of a 100 grams of donut. 22.85 grams fat,47 grams carbs and 5.7 grams protein. So 205.65 calories are coming from fat and 188 grams are coming from carbs . I just dont get it, why donuts chocolate etc are called simple carbs if most amount of calories are coming from fat. So if your goal is to lose weight than you should consume less calories than you are burning throughout the day.

    2:54 Must? the only organ in the body that MUST get glucose is the brain, and exclusively the brain.
    3:01 It CAN use glucose to power it, but is not REQUIRED. Your digestive tract can use KETONES in place of GLUCOSE to perform the very same action, the gut doesn't NEED 1 single gram of glucose to do this.
    There is only 1 organ in the body that REQUIRES glucose, the brain (and therefore the nervous system). But the good thing is, is that your body can synthesize its OWN glucose from protein and fat FROM THE FOOD YOU CONSUME to fuel the needs of the brain. Any more glucose past this baseline needed for the brain to function is toxic.

We need to stop blaming carbs for making us fat, it’s not the carbs, it’s YOUR lack of control to eat less than you need.

  • @andi8654
    @andi8654 8 месяцев назад +1

    Your explanation is somewhat misleading:
    It doesn't matter what type of food you eat, whether its carbs, fats, or proteins. In the end you will only gain body fat if you are in a caloric surplus. That means eating more calories than your body needs in a day. You are right that carbs are the primary energy source, fat and protein is less important and used for other things (such as hormone production and building muscle).
    But complex or simple carbs dont matter if it comes down to weight gain, because they both have the same amount of energy (4 kcal per gram). Every day your body will need a given amount of energy measured in calories to funntion properly. Assuming your glycogen stores in liver and muscle are full but your daily energy needs are not satisfied yet, the overshoot glucose from the carbs you ate will first be stored as fat but later that day be converted back to energy again since you need it for your body to work.
    So as long as the food you eat (calories in) contains less or the same amount of calories as the energy you burn in a day (calories out), you can eat what you want, even just carbohydrates, you won't gain fat.
    Also as a side note, at 4:22 you said that protein is higher in calories than carbohydrates, which is wrong. They both have 4 kcal per gram. Fats on the other hand contain more than twice the amount of calories (9 kcal per gram), which is also why they can easily add up to a lot of calories and make you gain weight.
