What a wealth of information Georgi provides. It seems like there's nothing he doesn't know, no research publication he hasn't read and memorized. His mind is awesome.
Thank you Sisters for getting Georgi down off of the mountain and helping humanity again! This interview just warmed my heart. I listen to the podcasts multiple times but came here to comment! Also glad to hear his update on the RPF. You guys did a great job of keeping Georgi on the practice tips and I am grateful for that! 🌞
Georgi's cancer research may be leading somewhere really good, but I keep hearing him warning against too much fat and about oxidation of fat. Some time ago a confronted Georgi and Danny Roddy about this in a live chat and I made them clarify what they mean when they refer to oxidation of fat, and they admitted they were talking about polyunsaturated fats. I wish they would always made this qualification whenever they talk about this. Very confusing.
Still have found that overdoing saturated fat can be problematic for many (for carb metabolism and for health) - why I like more of a moderate fat approach.
@@StrongSistas Thanks for that! When I started bioenergetics, I assumed I was still supposed to be doing full fat meats and dairy, and I did start gaining some weight, LOL, so I just switched to 93/7 ground beef and non-or low-fat dairy-and not to mention that lower fat is better for insulin resistance. I had gained weight on high fat carnivore, so I am hoping this works, but regardless, I’m glad to be eating carbohydrates again, as I really do feel from all of the research that it is the healthiest way to be. Thank you both for all you do! I’m so thankful for the people online helping to educate us!
Very helpful. Helped me understand some of the basics with regard to energy production and what is needed for the body to run optimally. Thank you for this - a terrific interview!
New viewer here 1/4 way in; and the suppression vs opposition literally gave me chills Excellent so far Excellent Thanks for letting him speak And trusting the listener so you don’t dumb down such life giving information
Peating makes room for experiments. Good to see you back on Georgi, keep up your brilliant work and don´t forget the importance of elimination part. Ray has said that vit b6 is a replacement of so called "essential pufas" . Also, wish you´d hook up with a team of holistic therapists to make an extreme beneficial way of speeding up healing processes. Ever thought about how maybe something like trauma can make your different senses extremely sensitive, which can maybe work as a double edged sword mechanism? I have.
@@jonthompson1068 I think ppl confuse many who are 'followers' of Ray Peat - with Peat's work. He has some great articles on learned helplessness - a result of trauma which is ultimately what paralyzes us..Although he does not discuss 'trauma' per se. Remember - RP was a physiologist. He is dealing mainly with dietary (although also other factors) like like that affect hormones. You cannot expect one person or one camp to address all of your needs as a human - because we all have different needs. And yes, Peat was not spiritual or into that. I agree it is important - so I get that elsewhere. I don't expect one human to be my guru. and I wouldn't want that ! Then we are in a cult!
I have heard the B6 supplementation can build up in the body and be toxic causing neurological problems amongst others. B6 makes me nervous. I take a B complex supplement with 6mgs of B6. I've only had 3 bottles in 12 months. My B6 is 150 (roughly) points above the reference range.
@@binathere2574 I have heard that also, well not sure about 'toxic' , but that it can cause side effects. I guess have to go with what your body tells you. Are your symptoms from taking this multi B supplement, or are you taking extra B6 in addition? Is that level from a lab test that you had?
- Vitamin B6 is helpful if you have recurring nightmares also. The important thing is the TYPE of the vitamin itself. You have to take P5P type - Vitamin B1 is essential if you have fatty liver or alcoholic which in turn will give you fatty liver. Even regular doctors know this. My brother was an alcoholic and in the healing process his doctor prescribed him some B1. Again the TYPE is important. You have to take either BENFOTHIAMINE or just THIAMINE from the brand Thiamax. Thiamine will also help with motility if you have constipation.
Lol y'all dummies know you can become toxic from thiamine and vitamins/minerals. Benfothiamine is especially toxic. Just cut out the fucking booze, drink coffee with plenty of sugar and exercise. You don't need all that other shit.
I'm so confused. I've listened to Georgi for a long time, he is brilliant and I respect him. Negative is that he promotes use of pharmaceuticals and supplements - which I've been trying to stay away from. The carnivores/high fat (saturated) people seem to be getting such amazing results, especially with weight loss. Although most seem to start from being very overweight, so I suspect they are in a calorie deficit. But I hear about all this mental clarity, mental illnesses cured. Also, there is Dr. Kiltz who claims to be curing infertility with carnivore diets. Seems to me a common thread could be discontinuing the seed oils. I've been trying carnivore/ketovore and don't feel good at all and have little energy. I am eating a lot and have gained unwanted weight. Not sure what to do now. Seems like no seed oils, (PUFAs) , sunshine and joy are the common denominators!
The carnivores are getting better because they are eliminating the bad stuff they were eating, but their diets could be better if they included a good source of carb and some other nutrients not found in meat
@@fedegroxo That is true. I'm now beginning to think that there are individual differences. It struck me that most people who do well on Carnivore/ very low carb have 1) broken metabolism (there are the exceptions like Dr. Chaffee - who started the carnivore young, and is a young very muscular, athletic man). Because their glucose metabolism is not efficient, they do much better metabolizing fat. The people I'm observing not doing well on carnivore/uber low fat are people who started with a decent metabolism, including glucose. That was me. I was trying it for GI issues.. but I was already thin, and had good labs - i.e lipids, AiC , glucose. It does seem like in this case, carbs aren't bad. I don't know what the answer is anymore.
@scoobydadog246 have you tried carnivore with 20% protein 80% fat? They say It IS better, or/and try carnivore with more collagenous foods. If even with these you still got recurring problems, start adding carbs from fruits, raw honey and even some Juice and sugar after a While and see If It gets better. But Also remember, diet IS not ALL about health. A good Life with purpose and without bother IS more important. Go for a walk in Nature, meditate, do deep breaths, know when to Go to bed and rest/recover You can Also be with toxic metals, worms, etc
I took Wit B complex with my last meal and in the morning i woke up with great mood, Yes attitude and really good vibes, though nothing changed! Amazing! I clearly See the effect of some Wit B. Thanks for this tip! Regarding metabolic rate, Georgi despite his knowladge, doesnt seem to follow Peat's discoveries. So I Wonder what his diet looks like :) . Also I reduced carbs Just by not eating things that contain gluten and my weight dropped. I "aspire" more towards keto with fruites, gelatin and milk, because there is a lot of people who follow it and combat their obesity and other problems. I think it is really good idea to combine those two attitudes. Thanks Girls for this interview, so inspiring!
My father had a melanoma on his back. He always wore a button down dress shirt and worked inside all his life. I never saw him with a tan or a sunburn.
After (me) having basal cell carcinoma, my dermatologist told me that you could live in a cave and still get skin cancer. People with low sun exposure have a higher risk due to low Vitamin D levels. It is a metabolic disorder.
I have a question, I thought you needed to raise the alkilinity of the cancer cell to oxygenate it for it to die off. Here you say cancer cells are alkaline and need to acidated, Can you explain. This contradicts Dr Sircus sodium bicarbonate theory. Thank you so much for all you do getting this content out.
I have switched from polyunsaturated oils to saturated fat in butter and beef fat. My stomach has shrunk over the past year and I am feeling wonderful.
i heard from paul saladino, that foods like rice, grated cheese and others are heavily mixed with pesticides, fungicides in order that those foods do not rot on the selves of the shop. You really need to rinse them very well.
2:05:14 "crazy is an evolutionary self-defense mechanism for people to leave you alone" - GENIUS. Thank You Georgi. Ashley, Sarah, please consider speaking with Dr. Tom Cowan about the big C. Thank You.
We are recording the next episode next week! We will have Kathleen on the podcast many many times if she allows us :p She has a young child and we have a farm so it has been hard for us to coordinate a time - but don't worry, more episodes coming soon!!!
Dear Sistas, do you have any videos discussing updated labs as you have been eating this way for a few years? What are your fasting glucose, insulin, HA1c, triglycerides these days. I can see in comparing your older videos to present videos that you faces are more full but has there been an increase or decrease in muscle mass and body fat along with this new lifestyle or do you prefer not to test and rely on how much better you feel? As a post menopausal woman, I’m wanting to get all my facts straight as I potentially embark on this new journey with you. Low carb/ carnivore doesn’t make me feel energized at all, but it has reduced belly fat. 😊Love your videos and podcasts and how you keep everyone on track. Thank you for sharing ❤
Jeez. I have been taking high dose omega 3 with supplements n healthy omega 9s as been very ill. I eat whole foods, and recently diagnosed at type 2 diabetes. WTH!!
Georgi, would love to hear your take on Morley Robbins and Walsh protocol work. 👍🏼 Yes, a lot of women can’t handle aspirin. I’ve tried various ways and my ears ring. ❤
I had the oat test and my cortisol had gone from way to high from high stress to not being able to work for the good reasons its needed so I'm working on getting it up. So we have to consider that too
Egg yolk fat is about 46% oleic acid, an omega-9 monounsaturated fat, 38% saturated fat, and 16% polyunsaturated fats . The PUFA ratio depends on how the chickens were raised. If you raise a chicken on grain feed, it has no choice but to be full of PUFA. If raised on fruits, bugs and coconuts, no PUFAs. Same with chicken meat and pig meat. Egg yellows are highly nutrient dense, but you might wanna avoid the egg whites, there are four toxins in egg whites.
I love Georgi's work. I started to take aspirin daily. Them I read that Nsaids cause a B12 deficiency. That's very concerning. I wonder if Georgi could check that? B12 Deficiency/insufficiency is at epidemic levels across the globe.
Not sure that I agree that one is going to have a palpable effect every time they take a supplement, and if they don't feel that effect, that it is not necessary to take it. Many supplements have sub-clinical effects that are not noticeable, yet are still beneficial to optimizing levels in the body, or working as protective nutrients in complex systems in the body. Georgi still has some of that Ray Peat mentality that is perverse to what some of the science shows, and why Ray often threw the baby out with the bath water on many valuable nutrients and compounds. Having said that, I think it is good to pulse dose, rotate, or take breaks from things {even food}, since the body gets acclimated and tends to attenuate the response to things.
If a cancer cell is alkaline, and if making it less so can cause it to self destruct, how does it work that some doctors claim to successfully treat cancer with sodium bicarbonate which is alkaline? Just asking.
@Strong.Sistas could you comment on how much dietary fat you think a human being should be consuming on a daily basis in terms of grams (ball park / best guess) I worry about my fat intake after hearing this discussion. I love my pasture raised eggs and and raw butter, coconut oil…etc
I think he mentioned this on another podcast, the more PUFA you eat or have stored the more Vitamin-E you need, they are also anti-estrogenic. I’m not sure about the dosage but many supplements are overdosed to a comical degree. There are some that offer a dose below 50mg and made from palm oil instead of e.g. soy or other seed-oils.
Does anyone know where I can find a reference of these high profile brain cancer patients that were treated with dichloroacetate? Or perhaps where I can ask Mr Dinkov.?

There's only one big thing on the list that I think you and Georgi missed..... high iron. High iron is associated with pretty much every degenerative disease, including cancer, diabetes and heart disease, and iron lowering strategies in those with high or even the so called "High Normal" iron to near deficiency levels reduces the incidence of those diseases, and also improved glucose utilization. And thanks to "iron fortification," it's a much bigger problem, especially if you eat grains like wheat or rice, or take iron containing vitamins. This is one that seems to get overlooked so often in the bioenergetic and alternative health spheres, but is cheap and easy to detect, as is treatment if iron is high.
Georgie and Ray have talked about Iron ad naseum. Ray has an article on it, Georgie has dozens of studies at his website based on excess iron, Iron toxicity. They have explained many times how blood test for iron products are feeble and false. Georgie can only discuss 20 things at a time.
I tried to call Dr. Matthews but he is no longer there. I am in need of professional to help with supportive metabolic care in a spinocereballar atrophy case.
I caught the last one with Dr. Mercola, and I felt like Dr. Mercola was very respectful and you could tell he was really enjoying the conversation with Georgi! Dr. Mercola brought up many interesting and relevant points. It was a great podcast!
I have a low level understanding of the prometabolic perspective on Omega 3 and B1. I have pretty agonizing skin problems that have only gotten worse since going prometabolic and even supplementing with mega doses of B1 (around 1g) hasn't helped. I recently tried adding Omega 3 and it's been giving me some much needed relief. ... I'm just gonna do what works and try to learn better as I go. Didn't Dr Knobbe say on your show that he's a big fan of Omega 3?
@@StrongSistas I had followed Morley Robbins in the past)I remember you had him on as well) he is a big believer in Cod Liver oil...do you not agree with that
@@Heracleetus if you eat food you get plenty of omega 3's. The acne could be from something you are eating that doesnt agree with your digestion. Forget all the supplements and other crap that these fake "gurus" are trying to sell you and just eat food. Ray Peat was against supplements and advocated for food to be your medicine.
Why do Peaters seem to avoid real genuine Niacin (nicotinic acid) in favor of niacinamide which only powers the inferior "salvage pathway" for NAD synthesis?
In my 70’s low carb or keto for 10 years. I had none of these things. I walked 5 miles, worked out. Active, worked. No fatigue. Good digestion. But I under ate to a scary degree. I’m eating more the last 8 months with lots of fruit. Basically keto (less fat) and fruit as I test what works for me.
@@TravisTellsTruthsit’s not keto. Jay Feldman calls a plan to get off keto and low carb by eating keto like protein with fruit to cycle off low carb. My slow added carbs are mostly fruit. Not as much fat though. I’m familiar with keto foods and then I’m adding fruit slowly. No starches and limited dairy but I will add those slowly. I found I can’t do milk. Only yogurt and cheese. It’s testing my tolerances and food that agrees with me. It’s felt good. Cheers. I’m a dudette. 😀
@@cammieklundthis is not real keto. I’m eating a lower fat keto for protein and slowly adding fruit. It’s testing my tolerance for dairy and starches. I will add those slowly as carbs other than fruit. It’s just a comfortable way to ease into getting off low carb and keto after 12 years. Jay Feldmans Energy Balance program. Simpler than the shotgun of everything that Georgie blasts out. (Although I enjoy him )
Not sure to agree on his protein intake advice !! To his knowledge if an old women is 50kg then she should aim for 50g protein makes no sense. to activate muscle protein synthesis you must reach a minimal ammount of Leucine which is in fact around 25g protein per meal Plus, The older you get the harder it is to activate muscle protein synthesis by which an old person would need about two times the ammount of a 20 year old intake to equal the same response and neither did we discuss the protein absorbtion rate of the food you ate
Thanks for sharing! I just did a quick search online and it looks like the 25 g per meal (or 3-4 g leucine) is specifically recommended for the elderly in order to build muscle, so perhaps younger people can get away with less than 25 g per meal? Thank you for bringing this up, as it makes me think I should be getting a little bit more protein at each meal, as I am mid 40s and wanting to build more muscle.
Ingesting, digesting, absorbing and metabolizing are all different things. Giving more and more protein to someone who cannot digest protein properly will only make things worse.
I hear biochemists talking at a level that I do not understand and have no desire to learn enough about biochemistry to understand. I'm already busy. If yall say how many aspirin per day that a 180 pound man should take, I do not hear it -- and what links should I click on to buy the products that will accomplish what yall are proposing? I've heard enough of Georgi to be fully convinced that I want to follow his protocols. All I needed was Mercola's endorsement, and he strongly endorsed him a couple of years ago. The Mercola interview along with a couple of RU-vid channels completely changed my diet at that time. I'm taking one aspirin a day and the Mercola vitamin B complex -- and have no idea from this long conversation if I should tweak that
It is overly complicated, yes. An aspirin a day is good. But dissolve it in water and don't drink the residue if the aspirin has added crap in it. Danny Roddy has a video on how to safely take aspirin. Not sure about the B vit yet.
I wish Georgi would answer this. He says cancer is metabolizing fat instead of sugar but a pet scan uses radioactive glucose to locate cancer ...how do you explain that?
I highly doubt he said that , although I didn't go back and listen; but I've heard him talk about CA metabolism many times, so know he does not believe that. Cancer cells cannot use fat, nor can they use glucose PROPERLY, but only do glycolysis, the first step, which is more primitive. Normally then glucose (and fats) are processed in the mitochondria via oxidative metabolism. The end product of glycolysis is lactate/lactic acid, which then builds up. So yes, the PET scan will locate CA cells based on the higher rate of glycolysis. Many say cancer 'thrives on sugar', assuming sugar is 'feeding' the cancer, but it's really that CA can't process the sugar properly, and produces too much lactic acid.
He said that drugs that block lipolysis like insulin and meldonium forces the cells to use glucose. He said cancer is like diabetes type 1 and is oxidizing fat right in the beginning....
Lol I swear y'all are junkies. You want to know what blocks cortisol better than any of these garbage supplements and hormones? Food and sugar. Taste good and is good for you.
I like Georgi, but when he says low carbers can't sprint.. it's just not true. Last summer I was doing carnivore and sprinting like crazy, as well as doing a very active outdoor job.
Wouldnt it depend on how well liver is storing glycogen? People with damaged matabolisms tend not to store sufficient glycogen or maybe use it faster than can make it?
I keep hearing that omega 3 fatty acids are somehow a nutrient, and that you should have a high omega 3 to omega 6 fatty acids ratio, but I wonder if it is better to simply reduce or eliminate omega 6 (and 9) fatty acids without adding omega 3s.
So excited to see georgi back here. Not to mean this in a disrespectful way, but why is Georgi fat? If anyone has heard him talked about why i’d love to hear the reason. My speculation would be that it’s because he doesn’t want to induce stress by losing weight but I don’t know.
