★Sequel to my other video on diabetes

DISCLAIMER: The discussion of this video is type 2 diabetes. If you have diabetes, please investigate further before making drastic changes. This video is of course not meant to be a prescription or to be interpreted as medical advice. The aim is for it to be a stepping stone towards finding what works for your specific personal case. Being on a  low carb diet or a keto diet will induce certain physiological changes that you'd do well to be aware of. For example most people think a ketogenic diet is accompanied by an inevitable "keto flu," but in most cases this can be avoided by taking some sodium. Many many people are experiencing improvements on a low carb or keto diet and/or a fasting protocal, but of course you need to consider how this would interact with whatever medications you may be taking or other factors that make your case unique.

Need to be especially careful of manipulated data ,, just look at what Ancel Keys did to poison the human race

Ceilingdemon 01 - 2019-11-09

@MrFatilo yeah when you eat carbs and fat, the fat is stored because of insulin that was explained.

Ceilingdemon 01 - 2019-11-09

@MrFatilo So if you eat carbs reducing fat will prevent storing eaten fat but carbs can become fat if over eaten and will be stored because of how much insulin you produce while eating carbs. Eating fat doesn't produce much insulin so eat fat without carbs it won't be stored as much but used as energy aka ketosis. Also insulin level would have to be down before this. Also prolonged ketosis without food will burn mostly fat aka fasting. So eating fat without carbs burns fat or fat equal energy source so burning calories in ketosis burns fat as when glucose from carbs is energy glucose is burns first and if fat is eaten it is stored because the body is using glucose also insulin stores overtake of glucose as fat. So carbs make you fat because you burn glucose instead of fat and you store eaten fat and glucose converted fat. You don't burn fat when on glucose thats why fat people run to reduce glucose so they burn fat but if they still have insulin in them from a carb meal it is hard to burn fat so they burn too much calories and not enough fat so they lose muscle as well. So they keep fat and lose muscle like a low calorie diet with carbs but if they would've fast or keto they would burn fat before any muscle. So keto and fasting keep more muscle than low calorie diets with carbs.

There's no money in prevention. It's all in the treatment.

Happy_Healthy_Jenny - 2020-03-08

Isaax “not profitable” 😂😂😂😂 Talk about naive... go to any store now, and tell me how the isles for vitamin C are. I can bet to you that those companies have made lots of money now with the coronavirus around. There’s nothing more profitable nowadays than supplements. Check your isles for anything elderberry related. I bet you’ll find none, or they are close to being out of stock for the amount of people buying the elderberry supplements for their immune system wanting to prevent coronavirus. I saw them myself. Those doctors that sell you supplements and products to cure cancer are making more money than you and me combined. People go in debt wasting money on alternative treatments to cure cancer. The sad part is that most of them try to go back to conventional treatments and it’s already too late, because the single-lump breast cancer became a metastatic cancer that spread to other parts of their body, like their lungs, when they decided to refuse surgery and chemotherapy, to go to a naturopath instead. Anything can be profitable with the right marketing and sponsorship. Believe me the reason for not finding a cure for ALL cancers is not because “they won’t make any money out of it.”

Happy_Healthy_Jenny - 2020-03-08

Isaax btw, many the companies that make most ‘natural’ supplements nowadays, are part of pharmaceutical companies like Pfizer. Or mega-corporations like Clorox. They invest in supplement brands because of how profitable it is. One famous brand of vitamins and natural supplements was sold for over $6 billion recently. Look it up.

Niclas Karlsson - 2020-05-02

You do realize this is only true in countries without free healthcare? In public healthcare, the government is incentivized to reduce costs. Treating the sick is very expensive. Hence prevention science is paramount. In Sweden companies get subsidies from the government to give their workers gym memberships, standing desks, and other things that help prevent diseases.

Chidsuey - 2020-05-02

@Niclas Karlsson The government is never incentivised to reduce costs because it doesn't operate on the profit/loss mechanism of the market. When a private entity fails, it fails because it spends more money than it took in. When a government program fails, it's "because they were underfunded". Every time.

Niclas Karlsson - 2020-05-02

@Chidsuey Ofc they are, they try to push down costs all the time. In Sweden we have a separate beauro just for negotiating down prices of nation wide purchases (school supplies, medicines, etc) by asking companies to sell the best product at the lowest possible price, competing for one of the biggest purchasers in the nation: The nation itself. Sure blaming "underfunding" is one simple way of putting it, some politicians tend to do that, not so much here imo. But yes, that's a shallow way at looking at how the government operates to get the public the best possible deal for their tax money. But the idea that the government just makes a plan and does not try to keep costs down is ludicrious.
Again I feel that the American market takes over in discussions like this, and this idea that cancer treatment would be held back due to the losses might be "true" in the US, but not so much in other places of the world.

I hate when people just say "diabetes" I'm type 1 and it's an entirely different desease..

Alec Corliss - 2020-07-27

@Neil Creamer i meant they are about the same thing as in they all relate to the pancreas, diabetes relates to high blood sugars in blood which both t1 and t2 have, the reason why there are different types is because of the different ways that you can get high glucose levels. t1 because your pancreas failed, and t2 because you become too fat and insulin resistant (i think). both revolve around blood glucose, insulin and your pancreas making them diabetes. your right they are treated differently but they are still the same TYPE of disease. people should be better educated about t1d though because its really annoying having people ask so many questions... and the other 2 types i have no idea about

Neil Creamer - 2020-07-28

@Alec Corliss OK but that's like saying that Hashimoto's and Grave's disease are about the same because they both involve the thyroid. In fact, the problems and their treatment are the opposite. With diabetes using the same term a) conflates T1 diabetes with something that can be treated by a change in diet when the people who have it are dependent on insulin to survive and b) leads to a treatment of T2D which makes their condition worse so it really would help out both groups if the conditions had different names.

(With T2 you become insulin resistant and then fat. It's not the other way round. That's why crappy advice about cutting fat to cure T2D never works.)

Agata - 2020-07-31

Yeah it’s a spectrum, even type 2 people have different consequences, some may have a leg amputation, others kidney failure, some may have heart problems, some may have normal body weight but need insulin, others are morbidly obese. And then of course type 1, which has a different mechanism. There is a huge variation between patients and everyone needs a personalised treatment.

TheOtherMike - 2020-08-11

kori228 - 2020-08-15

you can still benefit from the diet tho. going full keto means you don't need the insulin (or as much if you don't produce insulin at all) as you'll be in ketosis and using fat the whole time.

awake323 - 2018-10-01

I've lost 25 kgs after watching your videos since January of this year. Thank you so much.

Dart Father - 2020-04-25

@prachi patrikar A typo is for one letter or punctuation. It usually happens when you press a letter nearest the correct letter. Lting or luing is typo because you replace "y" with "t" or "u" which are the nearest on your cellphone keyboard. Laying has a very different format than lying. Btw, "typo mistake" is redundant. Typo means typing mistake. Just say "typo" and it is understood. TYPO MISTAKE is like saying "TYPING MISTAKE MISTAKE".

prachi patrikar - 2020-04-25

@Dart Father bare

andoletube - 2020-07-14

@Julián Leiva Incorrect. If he was eating the same number of calories as carbs, he wouldn't have lost anywhere near that amount of weight. If you have hyper-insulinemia, you can't burn your body fat. You can't use somebody who isn't insulin resistant as an example for people who are insulin resistant. How do I know? I tried for 15 years to lose weight by calorie restriction. I know the role insulin played because I am a Type 1 diabetic, who later became severely insulin resistant and I gained a lot of weight. I was on a typical carb rich diet of only 1200 calories. I needed 150 units of insulin to keep my blood sugar down. I lost only 4 kg in one year doing that religiously. When I changed to keto, I was eating 1200 calories with only 5% carbs and 80% fat with 15% protein. So, same calories, same "deficit". In only 6 months I have lost 42kg. My insulin requirement has gone from 150 units down to 35. Do you understand what's happening here? I am no longer locking up my fat through high insulin levels. Eliminating almost all carbs was the key. It's undeniable. If you are insulin resistant, you must quit carbs. You're right, it's not magic, it's science - it's the human body. An insulin resistant body operates differently to an insulin sensitive body. You are probably one of those lucky people who don't have this issue. But there's a chance you will get it one day if you are complacent about carbs. Don't push carbs too far or you'll be in the same situation we were.

why would you say that - 2020-07-28

ah congrats! hope everything is going well :)

So the key of weight loss is keeping the insulin low..that's all..

inoebene what about if i eat like a meal that is high in carbs but i only eat once a day? i weigh like 148 and i’m 5’3 and i’m 20 years old how much weight should i lose?

ateb3 - 2020-05-07

@Sonia Dossa definitely but DO NOT gorge yourself before dawn and after dust. just eat normal meals without refined carbs (pasta, bread, rice) and sugar. just because you dont eat for 14-15 hourse doesnt mean you can eat as much crap as you want in the eating hours. on the other hand since ramadam is a dry fast try to drink a lot of water during the dark hours of the day.
also try to go low carb and load up on fats like olive oil it will keep you more satiated and make it easier to fast

Iolanda Girleanu - 2020-05-08

The key is calories in vs calories out. Eat keto all you want, if by the end of the day you eat 3000kcal a day and do no physical activity, you're gonna get fat. Intermittent fasting is just another way to restrict calories, especially on a keto diet where there's tons of calories from fats.

inoebene - 2020-05-08

@Iolanda Girleanu adapting keto is not about eating tons of fat..it's more doing carbs restriction.. besides calories in calories out is just an old theory that never works for me..keto and if works not because they restrict calories, keto if works because they regulate your blood insulin and also can manage your craving for food..do you know that insulin is fat storage hormone? you can't grow fat cells without it..and fyi hyperinsulinemia is the root cause of chronic diseases like t2d, high blood pressure, cvd etc. just follow these a few simple keto principle that i adapt from dr ben bikman/ted naiman..restriced you carbs (20-50g), prioritize your protein (1-2 gram /kg your ideal weight, if your still hungry fill with fat..dont forget about mikro nutrition like mineral/electrolyte and vit and combine them with inttermittent fasting...thats your keys for weight loss and healthy living..

What I've Learned - 2018-10-01

[SOURCES: See description for a link to a PDF with all sources. Ketogenic studies are in that document.]
Hey everyone, here's part 2/2 of the diabetes topic. This video makes similar conclusions as the last one, so I hope it doesn't feel repetitive, but I think it's important to cover this from different angles and this one shares several intriguing and important concepts that I wasn't able to get to in the last video. For some of my viewers the information in here might not be new - what I'm aiming for is a clear explanation that you can share with family or friends who haven't been exposed to this kind of information but could surely benefit from it.

I was initially planning to answer a bunch of common concerns about low carb and keto like "Doesn't the brain need glucose? Isn't ketosis a diseased state?" and so on, but these have already been addressed in my other videos and a couple of them more than once.

Thanks to you, I have now completely eliminated added sugars from my diet and have been doing IF for some time now. Never felt better.
It's so difficult to get reliable information these days with every other person peddling their half assed analysis on people. Even the damn studies are based on surveys, like in the heat to publish something they will publish ANYTHING, and the media doesn't spare a chance to sensationalize those studies.

Bosonian - 2018-10-03

@Carton et Many of the food products in America contain corn syrup which is high in fructose, unlike fruits which contain sucrose. Fructose is only processed by liver and is directly stored as fat whereas sucrose is broken down into glycogen and stored in the form of carbs. So, if by 'sugar' you meant 'sweetness' then no, sugar is not sugar.

Carton et - 2018-10-03

boson96, sucrose is a disaccharide containing both glucose and fructose, according to Wikipedia. Fructose occurs in all fruits and vegetables. It turns glucose, fructose and sucrose (which is just glucose+fructose) into fat from what I understand.

G-Man Bond 007 - 2018-10-24

there's also a thing called a complex carb that what I've learned has spent over 30 minutes avoiding. carbs in whole grains, rices, pastas etc that also slow down the insulin release, which means you don't have to radically change your diet to change things, its something as minor as "don't drink soda"

StrangerSphinks - 2019-06-19

@Martial Kintu pardon the res but every time some smooth brain peddles the idea that meat has unique nutrients, it's needs to be dispelled, first by pointing out this phrase is rarely given with proof, it's just an inharited talking point, and second because it's demonstrably false. B12 is constantly belted as being unique to meat, but b12 deficiency is common even among people that eat meat and is easily managed by a multivitamin, because it's in microorganisms.

Martial Kintu - 2019-06-24

@StrangerSphinks I'm not talking about B12, which occurs naturally in grass. I will cite the nutrients and go in further depth when I have time. Instead of calling me smooth-brain you should instead ask me to cite them like a normal person.

Good for you man. What was the most difficult part?

Thoeun Kong - 2019-10-29

1:20, the BiGu you mention seems more like a spiritual practice of avoiding food altogether instead of just "grains". They apparently try to achieve a state of immortality and living off of chi. For most Asian languages, the word "rice" or "grains" is synonymous to just "food" in general. Part of BiGu might be more analogous to intermittent fasting if anything.

Maxim Agapoff - 2018-10-01

By far my favourite channel! Make a video on how human relationships are important (on a bio-chemical level)

TheTheoser - 2018-10-01

Tell me more about that

Joe Rob - 2018-10-02

I second this :)

Metrowhite - 2018-10-02

the academy of ideas is a great channel as well.

Who is crazy enough to think a cardiologist knows anything about nutrition, anyway? I've not found a single doctor who had one clue about diet....hospital meals are atrociously unhealthy as well. Cardiologist are notorious for pushing those toxic statin drugs. That alone tells you they are clueless about how the body works.

4G12 - 2018-10-09

Well, in my part of the world hospitals actually serve normal food such as meat, fish and vegetables and rice, thankfully.

UTubeIsMuhKrakane Literally - 2018-10-15

krist Real - no kidding, our hospitals are a joke. diabetic meals are calculated by calories not carbs . diabetics are surprisingly often given sugar jello and sugar sodas, thru carelessness in the kitchen.

@Kornuit Hildr believe the sources, but I guess you're too lazy to read actual journals

Elizabeth Blane - 2020-02-29

Dr. Bret Scher from Diet Doctor is one exception.

SirChocula - 2020-05-24

@Kornuit Hildr You made no "point". All you said was believing a random youtuber is a lot better with sarcasm. Don't try moving the goal post. You just got called out without anything backing it up.

Jokicmoki - 2018-12-21

when you said you checked all 17 research studies <3 marry me !

Ming Mongo - 2018-10-01

It seems to me that fasting is likely to be better for health than a diet that is intended to mimic fasting. And it's just easier to do.

N P - 2018-11-21

@Peter Attia Dr. Attia? Wow

Peter Attia - 2018-11-22

@N P No. Just first thing that came to my mind...

The Voice of Reason - 2019-01-03

i do 48 hour fasts twice a week

Thoeun Kong - 2020-04-27

It's not that simple!!! There are very very different effects from fasting and eating a ketogenic diet. Just think, most people eat crap foods. Don't expect skipping breakfast alone to help.

Anathem7 - 2020-05-28

A ketogenic diet does not "mimic" starvation or even a fasted state. This is a gross misconception. Whenever one eats they will be sent out of ketosis for several hours, whether they ate low carb, high carb or anything in-between.
Fasting cannot be a replacement to a low carb diet either, it's like apples and oranges. The aim of a low carb diet should not be to achieve ketosis anyways. Being in a catabolic state all the time would be unnatural and counterproductive, and that cannot be achieved with a ketogenic diet anyways so any concerns about that should be put to rest.

billytheweasel - 2019-05-26

Shout out to Dr Ted Naiman. Engineer first them MD.

Ted Naiman is great

Diego alberto Mejia - 2019-04-14

Those Doctor receives Grant for pharmaceuticals, we have to be very carefully how analyze their advises

Sailing Aeolus - 2020-05-27

Yep, their advice is the devil talking.

darkpufferfish - 2018-10-02

This channel is a gold mine!

oscar hudson - 2018-10-01

hey, I got on early! Btw could you make a video about anxiety's effect on the brain and body

The Health Mentor - 2018-10-02

Would you like to see videos like these about psychology?

oscar hudson - 2018-10-02

yeah, that would be cool

Armands - 2018-10-14

Obviously I’m not a doctor, so take my comment with a grain of salt. I was suffering with anxiety for 12 years, went to psychologist, got a lot of pills to manage it, but nothing really helped. Pills helped when I had the panic attacks, but not with preventing them in the first place.
Then I started carnivore diet because there was a lot of anecdotal evidence for it helping with anxiety and depression and you can imagine my surprise when the anxiety was gone in the first week. Now I only get panic attacks when I eat too many carbs. I incorporated some fruit and veg (max 20g of carbs per day) in to the diet and the anxiety hasn’t returned. Anything over that brings it back.

Same thing happened for my fiancé. Took a bit longer for her, about 3 weeks, but now it’s also gone

Any.Anchors - 2018-10-01

Love your work mate keep it up
I am a nurse and everybody at work thinks I am crazy when I start talking about these things
I have asked many doctors and diabetes educators about these things and they are all stuck on the brainwashed version of treatment

Oliver Handy - 2018-10-02

The new hospital in our City has a Costa Coffee built in to the first floor reception (They sell lots of different cakes along with the high caffeine + skimmed milk drinks) From my casual observations the staff, including nurses, are mostly over weight, like the patients...It is a joke that is not funny...

Any.Anchors - 2018-10-02

@Oliver Handy here at my hospital
we have a gloria Jean's and i see the same thing eveyday can you believe it is estemated that by 2050 1 in 3 people will have diabetes

Cathleen B. - 2020-04-05

Nurse here too. I've lost 60 pounds on keto. Been doing it for almost 2 years. Have kept the weight off. I try to talk to my IDDM pts and they have the mentality of eat what they want and take more insulin. This way of eating solves high blood pressure, some digestive issues, joint pain, clears up cardio imbalances!

Also, soda (aka Fructose Corn Syrup) goes straight to liver! 100% of it. Actually, real sugar cane sugar goes throughout your body. So, avoiding sugar is key. But avoiding soda is a must! Fructose corn syrup/fructose in any form goes 100% straight to liver. So, overflow occurs and fatty liver never gets better.

This channel improved my life so much, was hard to cut all the unhealthy stuff because of it though haha
