As a medical professional myself for past 30 years, and following all guidelines to reduce the risk of progression of a chronic non communicable disease in my patients, I am thankful to the panel to open disruptive verticals
Dr. Chris Knobbe's lecture regarding the harmfulness of industrial seed oils is a must watch for all those who are interested in health. His lecture goes to prove that if all you focus on are just the macros of a diet, then you are only scratching the surface of what constitutes healthy eating.
That is a good point, and I was thinking the same thing. I remember when the low carb movement started, there were not that many slender medical professionals who subscribed to it, and fewer practiced it. So, a lot of the popular representatives of low carb were overweight people who were on the journey to be slender. Hence, it was easy for detractors of the diet, such as vegans, to poke fun at the diet for not getting results. Now that you have many highly qualified physicians and researchers who advocate for the diet and are slim as a result of the diet, low carb is not so easy to deride.
Fat doctors don't get invitations to events like this. Assuming you are healthy, because you are thin can get you killed. For more information: You can look thin and have Type II Diabetes and/or fatty liver disease, cancer, etc. Thin does NOT necessarily equal healthy. Weight gain is just a symptom that some people get and some don't. Something like 40% of "thin" people have metabolic syndrome.

Love, love, love Dr. Nadir! Brilliant, goes to the point, can back everything he says with research. He needs to go on tour to educate doctors about statins!
Addressing the question about seed oils and insulin resistance, the issue is that they very readily oxidize and this means they go straight to liver fat. This is what causes insulin resistance and t2 diabetes in a nutshell. If your liver is fatty it is shooting out sugar and triglycerides all day long and it also loses the ability to store glycogen forcing your internal organs to take it all in. This one two punch overwhelms the system until eventually it is overwhelmed one day and then BAM you are fully t2 diabetic. So seed oils are very bad. Other fats like butter oxidize a bit if they are not fresh, but olive oil is nearly twice as oxidizing while seed oils like corm oil are then more than twice as oxidizing as that. So if you are eating a nut it should not be rancid as is probably mostly OK but if you are taking in some oil made from nuts or seeds it's pretty much pure poison.
How about doing some nutritional studies on people who actually are already in institutions? Anyone with mental health issues may actually benefit from the change in diet. Their medications might have be adjusted though.
How does this forum feel about tocotrienol supplements derived from palm oil? Is it the same as palm oil used in cooking? Should I find another tocotrienol?
If you eat healthy and don't have too much carb supplements are the last thing you should be worrying about. I'd maybe consider berberine and cayenne, but vitamins? Definitely not. Maybe k2 if you have lots of plaque.
I make Keto since round about 12 month. The whole time the experts are saying,, that mono-unsaturated fats and poly unsaturated fats(like Omega 3) are healthy and better than saturated fats. Now this doctor say, they are not. What is right now?
Not really, since around 2012 experts have been backtracking on saturated fats. Eggs are ok to eat and grass fed butter is considered better for you than artificial margarine. That’s according to the “non-keto” experts. I’ve never heard a keto expert say to avoid saturated fats.
The factory made ones. The seed oils that have been bleached and dyed. There are very few that haven't. Olive oils and coconut oil are about the only ones that are natural.
Any meat is still better than carbs. After you become fat adapted your hunger level will go down. Some eating keto and or carnivore go to one meal per day. Save $ and be healthier with cheaper organ meats, sausage, make bone broth, tougher cuts can be slow cooked, especially better with bones in
Also sardines and other seafoods. Remember, the trick seems to be to get the omega 6 fats way low. That way you only need smaller amounts of omega 3 and still get a good ratio between them.
i am a type 2 diabetic on a low carb diet. the change is not a magical cure & my glucose levels are still not great. exercise also is not a magical cure. A new treatment using Dahlias by Otago university NZ looks promising.
