For people who have liver or gallbladder issues, it's very important to make sure you're getting enough choline in your diet. The body uses choline to make phosphatidylcholine, a substance that keeps your bile thin and fluid. If you go for a long time on too little choline (like someone on a vegan, vegetarian, or SAD diet) your bile with be thick and clumpy and you'll develop waxy bile stones in your liver and gallbladder. Some of these stones can develop a calcified outer layer and become hard as rocks. The two foods which are highest in choline are eggs and beef liver. They tell us to avoid these foods, and then we wonder why everybody is getting their gallbladders removed. Well, you've rendered it dysfunctional by years or decades of nutritionless eating.

@btudrus 7 месяцев назад

I had my first gall stone attack 12 yrs ago. I havent had one in 3 years. The amount of time Ive been carnivore. I am 100% certain that the constant movement of bile out of the bladder is the reason why. People need to eat fat daily to prevent this issue, but instead we are told to avoid fat like its the plague all our lives. Especially girls, and the yoyo dieting I did as a teenager and young adult is probably why I developed stones, eventhough I was never above a 23 bmi.

I'm 78 and have been eating three to five pasture-raised eggs a day for several years. So far, so good. No death here. And btw, "free range" doesn't mean anything. It has to say _pasture-raised_ if you want the best eggs. This is not to say other eggs are worthless, of course, but I get pasture-raised eggs not only for the nutrition. My dollars support regenerative agriculture, which is important to me as it solves a whole lot of problems we face these days.

We can just use common sense and logic. Egg is literally source of life. It's purpose is to create the entire living animal. Therefore egg has the perfect structure and ratio of protein, fats and very little carbs - which should also signalize to us that carbs are not essential for life as well. If the entire animal can be born out of an egg, how is egg "dangerous" and "unhealthy" then??? Basic logic!!!

@gerrywaneck377 7 месяцев назад

Dr. Westman, your remark that chicken eggs don't need Vitamin C to hatch, beginning at 19:20, is wrong. The reason chickens don't need exogenous Vitamin C is because, unlike humans, chickens - like most animals - can synthesize their own. It is therefore not a vitamin for them. Vitamin C is made by a series of enzyme-driven steps which convert glucose to ascorbic acid. This is done either in the kidneys (reptiles and some birds), or the liver (mammals and perching birds). The loss of an enzyme which is essential for ascorbic acid synthesis has occurred quite frequently in evolution. It has happened in most fish, many birds; some bats, guinea pigs and most but not all primates, including humans. The mutations have not been lethal because ascorbic acid is so common in various food sources, especially fruit. It was only realized in the 1920s that some cuts of meat and fish are also a source of vitamin C. As with fruit and vegetables, cooking destroys the vitamin C content. In living organisms, ascorbate is a strong antioxidant. It is also a cofactor in at least eight enzymatic reactions, including several collagen synthesis reactions that cause the most severe symptoms of scurvy when they are dysfunctional. In animals, these reactions are especially important in wound-healing, and to prevent bleeding from capillaries. Vitamin C is needed for the production of collagen in the connective tissue. It is required for making dopamine, noradrenaline, and adrenaline in the nervous system or the adrenal glands. Vitamin C is also needed to make carnitine, important in the transfer of energy to the mitochondria. Tissues with greatest percentage of vitamin C - over 100 times the level in blood plasma - are the adrenal glands, pituitary, The brain, spleen, lung, testicle, lymph nodes, liver, thyroid, small intestinal mucosa, leukocytes, pancreas, kidney, and salivary glands usually have 10 to 50 times the concentration present in plasma.

I can also vouch for the educational and motivational value of Dr Sten Ekberg's videos. I also enjoy his seemingly radical experiments on himself, e.g. eating 10 eggs or 100 grams of butter, every day for 10 days, analyzing his blood test results before - after, because they can be effective for curing egg-phobia or fat-phobia, etc. I have only seen one reaction from Dr Westman, not against the main subject matter of Dr Ekberg's video (it was vitamin D), but disagreeing with Dr Ekberg's (and most doctors' ?) assertion that blood plasma levels of this vitamin tell you if you are deficient or not.

I'm more inclinced that it's just that: they want to scare us by making us listen less to our body instead of more, resulting in what we see.

The latest one “going around” is that (unfermented) Red Meat contains “Neu5Gc” Sialic Acid carbohydrate…that sneaks in amongst our own (similar) molecules and causes “no end of mischief” in our bodies. That’s Dr Steven Gundry’s latest “scoop” for us to either laugh at…or worry about. Take your pick!

About the studies: It all depend in what "physiological state" you are and I have experienced it: are you in the "keto-state" (meaning you have high concentration of ketones in the blood/urine) or not. The studies about eggs did not specify the physiological state I presume and are for people on a "normal or a vegetarian diet". When I am in that keto-state I can eat more than 10 eggs without any problem; I did it once and made no habit of it. When I am NOT in that keto-state and on a normal diet: 10 eggs can kill me I know (because too much cholesterol), I feel my heart hurts then; I would not dare to eat more then 2 or 3 eggs at a time, never 10 eggs ... Caution: I speak only for myself of course, I am not responsable when people try this. Its always on your own risk; donot blame me! But I think keto-dieters know this also. The same thing goes with butter etc... (To reach the keto-state it can last between 3 to seven days.)

I did realize once I started to try to eat eggs every morning that I was having a histamine issue. I realized I was buying cheap Costco eggs or cheap eggs in general. Not good so I went ahead and started buying the organic eggs and was still having problems with the egg white so I only use egg yolks if a teeny bit of egg white ends up in the mix fine, so maybe people who are having histamine issues should cut out the egg whites, especially stop getting those cheap eggs! I’ve seen some reports that these companies are dying egg yolks yellow from within. How do they even do that? Trying to make you think they’re healthy UGG just stick with the better eggs.

Dr Westman, there is actually a lot of scientific research that people like Dr Berg have brought to light about the nutrition in grass fed and free range vs grain fed animals. The top thing that comes to mind is the omega 3 vs 6 ratio of grass fed vs grain fed beef- omega 3 is much higher when they eat a species appropriately diet. And considering you are at the forefront of the keto community, I have to believe you understand the species appropriate diet perspective ❤

Having backyard chickens has been a game changer! Our ladies' eggs are larger than the "large" store bought, their yolks are a deeper orange, and they taste better. We allow them to free range half the day and they have plenty of space once back in the coop. If you own your own home or have a decent landlord, check your county laws regarding backyard chickens. They are easier to care for than cats or dogs and you don't need a rooster to get eggs. Four hens could provide enough eggs for a family of 2-4, depending on daily egg consumption.

@gerrywaneck377 7 месяцев назад

Please discuss the effects on blood sugar and insulin of a low carb diet, where the carbs come mainly from fresh fruit, combined with intermittent fasting. It's my understanding that the sugar in high fiber fresh fruit doesn't enter the blood stream, because it isn't digested in the small intestine. The fruit sugar is fermented to VFA in the colon. I don't have a glucose or keto monitor, but I'm losing weight and feel great on this diet. I don't get hungry during my 16-18 hr fast. Is the fruit bad for my liver?

@LiLi-ws7qz 6 месяцев назад

Yes ,from what I know,the fructose in the fruit can only be metabolized in the liver, if the fruit you are eating contains high amount of fructose such as tropical fruit, mangos, pineapple, it will burden the liver and too much and too frequently of eating high fructose fruit can lead to non-alcoholic fatty liver, so it's recommended that we take Berries in small amounts if you have insulin resistance.

@gerrywaneck377 6 месяцев назад

@@LiLi-ws7qz That's true if the fructose enters the bloodstream, as with fruit juice. But it's known that whole fruit passes through the small intestine undigested. In the colon, microbes will ferment the sugar before it can enter the bloodstream. Without a CGM or keto monitor, I don't know the answer.

Yes, don't laugh but I've become the ultimate contrarian and, in addition to doing carnivore and eating six eggs/day I started smoking again! Turns out nicotine is a longevity and weight loss drug and the dangers of smoking have been waaaaay overblown by the mainstream medical establishment. My IBS that I've had for years is gone, my depression/anxiety? Gone! My belly fat? Gone! I'm even cutting my parkinson's risk (runs in my family) way down, yes, by smoking. Yup, they lied to us about meat so why should we be surprised about their cancer scare tactics? Smoke 'em if you got 'em!

The only issue I have with eggs is finding ones that wont have me reborn as a dung beetle in my next life. As most people these days are aware, 89% or more of egg laying hens live with broken sternums/breastbones - due to the fact that the eggs they lay are bigger than is natural AND because they are made to lay eggs too young. So imagine the pain of that hen laying those eggs. Thats a just no for me. I cannot even imagine the amount of bad karma or mojo a person ingests with that suffering that those eggs cause. I always look for eggs from slow growing hens, and ecological ones, not because Im scared of pesticides - because thats not the point with ecological labelling for me. But because by law, each animal is required to be given more than double the space of a non ecological animal. So when you see the label, think instead: Oh that hen can walk around, and has access to outdoors. Oh, that pig can roll over, and stand up... - etc etc. Eat lots of meat and eggs. But eat in a way that doesnt make you a terrible terrible person! - Try to buy food that isnt raised on pain and suffering. Know the farm your meat comes from. Or your eggs.
