2 years ago I was diagnosed with Chrohns disease at 28 years old. Every hour of everyday was a struggle, in short my life revolved around the toilet and this led me to lose my job, my GF and my life. Doctors prescribed drug after drug and nothing made me feel better. So a year ago I decided enough was enough!! I needed to heal my body with nutrition and exercise, Keto and IF being key. I've just come back from the hospital and I am showing virtually no symptoms! My inflammation is almost zero, my blood is as healthy as any 20 year old. It's been a long journey and alot of sacrifice. But wow! I wish doctors instead of prescribing meds would help people and support people to make the right lifestyle changes. Thomas you've helped me alot! I feel like crying when I realise how far I've come. My life on keto and IF is amazing and I feel incredible! Thankyou Thankyou Thankyou for making these videos to help all of us lead healthier happier lives 💪💪💪
GhrisCreen I’m the US, the medical profession is broken. Too many people becoming doctors for wealth and not caring. They become tied to big Pharma. Most doctors I’ve seen in the past will be prescription engines, treating symptoms not causes, and plastering you with their drugs of choice. My last doctor was so obtuse, and in my mind conducting malpractice. She refused blood tests when I found candida was the root cause to my conditions. She couldn’t make money on that.
Tyler1989 I agree. I was a strict follower of Dave Asbery, the Bulletproof diet creator, but he is adamant on never going back on his words, even if they were wrong. I still love him, but I have to fact check things he says now. DeLauer has changed his opinion on nutrition several times, and I respect him for not being afraid of saying he has gotten things wrong. Brilliant and authentic man.
@@TylerJacksonMagic ehh he talks too much and sites too much scientific bs in his latest videos this one is straight forward and simple some of us have things to do and don't want to sit around watching a 20 minute video that could be 2 minutes especially since he doesn't add a summary of the video in the description anymore
Ur Mum Tbh, that’s kind of your fault. Most of us want to know why things work, and not just believe a dude on the internet. Sorry you have such a busy life you can’t learn about your body.
@@urmum7461 I mean. 2 minutes is a real stretch. Besides he is not trying to make you lose weight only, he is trying to provide factual evidence that this thing could improve your life if you stick to it. Knowing is half the battle. You don't have to come here, you could probably fair extremely well with a sheet of things that you are allowed to eat and what to avoid. Sometimes it's not that simple though and you may hit a problematic spot down the road. Besides that we live in a world were big companies make extreme amounts of money by killing us slowly and fund studies to keep the general populous out of the know and you got yourself a difficult argument to defend here. Besides that, if it was easy and quick nobody would be fat.
1. Don’t lean on MCT 2. Don’t hate on all carbs 3. Add Omega 3s 4. Get enough sodium. 5. Don’t rely on ketone levels. Especially urine test 6. Don’t be afraid of protein 7. Be prepared with Keto friendly snacks 8. Evade the keto police 9. Consider fiber (soliable). Subtract 1/2 not whole 10. They committed for at least 6 to 8 weeks.
Bro the commandments are already in the description box! 😂 Did you eagerly just type this in without skimming through the description box? Haha he always puts that in there
This!!!! I stopped talking about Keto a long time ago. No one wanted to hear it. Got a lot of discouragment. I stayed the course. I lost 30 pounds 🔥 They have stayed the same. Don't get me wrong....if they ask or listen....I am all about helping someone get on Keto ❤
I’m 93lbs down now - started Keto in September of 2018 - and I go off Keto every once in awhile. I’ll eat a Cauliflower Crust Pizza or some Chinese Food. I haven’t gone so far as to eat Taco’s or anything containing corn, or huge amounts of fructose contains products (fruit) because I was diagnosed with a Severe Fatty Liver along with Hemochromatosis. And fructose goes straight to the liver. So, I stay away from anything that has corn in it, or fructose. And I certainly won’t touch anything with High Fructose Corn Syrup In it because that stuff is just straight out poison. I’m aiming to hit 100lbs loss this month (07/19). That’ll put me at 221lbs. I might try to go even lower because the Keto diet is so favorable to my palate. I love it. And this guy - Thomas DeLauer - helped me so much. Thanks Thomas.
I really needed to hear this today....i have been feeling super guilty about falling off my keto lifestyle...beating myself up daily and binge eating sugars and carbs... I think after this video i can quit hating myself and start loving myself again...thank you thomas you have helped me in more ways than you even know.💜
In his other videos he says that your cheat meals should still be Keto friendly. You can eat fat bombs, Keto friendly pancakes, Keto cakes, and that this is the time to have a little fun with the Keto sweets or sweet potatoes in a Keto friendly way.
Siim Land! I have a question, I have seen some of your videos and was wondering if you could help me with some confusion, so when it comes to strength and building muscle, will someone on Keto be just as strong as someone on a regular diet or stronger or weaker? Say both people had the same variables, but the only difference is one was on Keto and the other was on regular and they trained for a Year. The reason I am asking this is because I want to get stronger, and I want to get abs, and I know Keto is Healthy! But I don't know if it will limit my strength abilities, or should I just do Keto 5 times a week and then do a normal diet on the Weekend like Brandon Carter does and suggests, called The Cyclical Ketogenic Diet
Roger Schwarzinger I am more explosive aka stronger or faster when I eat carbs. When on keto I can go on longer but a bit weaker when lifting heavy weights and a bit slower when running 10 km. So if you compete in strength or explosive sports you should absolutely eat carbs. If you hobby train it doesn’t really matter in the long run.
Here in germany we call it "sole Kur". You put Himalayan salt chunks in a container wit water and it dissolves until it Stopps. Then u know the water has enough minerals. U take a tablespoon of this mixture and put it in a big glass of Luke warm water. Normally u take it in the mornings on an empty stomache. I didn't know u can do it in the evenings too. I often have cravings at night I will try it too
I find that keto has helped me with midnight cravings. I also try going bed earlier as well, instead of staying up late watching mukbangs on RU-vid lol.
Honestly, I wanted to do a treat day (it's been 6 months) and this video took some of the guilt away. It's only a day! thanks for all your videos. You are so awesome.
Hi Bessie! Same here...I started it two weeks ago, and was feeling good about myself then I messed up Saturday night and ate 2 slices of pizza. I felt like crap yesterday, but I got back on the wagon and feeling better today. Wishing you the best, and be well!
Started 10 days ago. It works great together with 16/8 fasting and not having to eat that much aka not having to go grocery shopping several times a week during Corona :D
Commandment X is so important. As a beginner I jumped in using "Keto cheaters" I inadvertently ate fruits and vegetables that exceed my Carbs.....took me several days to figure that out. FINALLY wrote out a list that YOU suggested and after 3 weeks the results were immediate. If you are organzied, follow from the get go what Thomas tells you, you will lose weight. Always be conscious and AT LEAST commit for 50 - 60 days!!!!!!! Thanks Thomas.
Doing intermittent fasting with Keto I started at 269 pounds and this morning I weighed in at 227. I am thinking of my base weight between 180-200 and float in between the two. Once I get to 200 I am going to do resistance training. Thank you for your videos and story as we have the same story, I once was 280 also but my peak weight 4 years ago was 340
Well ty for asking sorry I just seen your question lol I weigh 203 pounds. Crazy looking back and seeing what I looked like. Now people don’t recognize me. I do not recognize myself lol. I hope your well and once again ty for asking about my progress🙂
hi there.can you teach me how to start with keto IF ? i have been doing intermittent fasting but could stick to not eating sweets and bread..i have a sweet tooth and couldnt lose weight bcoz of this.please share some tips . appreciate your help.thank you😊
The more videos I watch, the more I greatly appreciate this channel. I so appreciate the science and the clinical explanations for Keto. I have been researching for over a month, just started yesterday. This is by far the best info I have found. It speaks to the science nerd in me. I hate all the videos that speak in general terms without the science to back it up. I love the recipes other people have, but at the end of the day, I would rather have the science.
Thank you for sharing all your years of research! I wrongly thought I was at 60 too darn old to slim down...WRONG!! Thanks for helping everyone's journey to get healthy first..while shedding pounds!!
Thank you for helping me make a decision to do what makes me/my body feel good. After doing the 10 day smoothie cleanse, (fruit &green veggies) 3 smoothies daily, plus 2 snacks (2 boiled eggs, celery, carrots, peanut butter, handful of raw nuts) I feel absolutely horrible!!!! And I only loss 4 lbs😒 I just happened to stumble across your video on the “10 commandments of Keto” Im starting today!!!! I know I can comment to 8 weeks of satisfying eating. 60 and still in the race!!!!! Thank You Much🥰
I've been fairly strictly following the keto diet for about a year and a half now, and find I still have something new to learn each and every day. Thank you so much for the literal volume of information you have here on your channel. Really helps me stay focused and educated.
I am so glad I watched this tonight. I had forgotten about the 6-8 wk commitment as I keep off the wagon in my 2nd, 3rd attempt to restart after coming home to work in March. Thank you so much. Got it
*I love how this video covers all the essential principles of the keto diet in a concise and informative manner. It's a great resource for beginners and a helpful reminder for those already on their keto journey.*
Suggestion for a new video. How start a weight lifting program for someone who has never done resistance training. Give instructions to those of us who are over 50 or 60.
Check out "The Barbell Prescription." Excellent books based on the Starting Strength program but adjusted for the middle age and up crowd. Also check out their affiliate channel Grey Steel.
Start with very simple moves and start little. You must slowly condition your joints and tendons to this new stress that is exercise. When you workout at first, even if it feels like you could do way more reps or heavier reps, don't. Fix yoiurself a small exercise routine at first, and slowly build up from that. Take it from someone that started to strong and damaged his elbow tendon and shoulder tendon. 7 years later and I still can't grip with my left arm and raise my right shoulder without it getting blocked or hurting. Tendons almost do not heal back. So start really slow, and focus on the movement, it's important not to damage your joints with bad posture, moves, and doing it too fast (like crossfit do, just rushing through the exercises).
you have helped me so much. My Husband and son are eating the foods I cook and loving them I've lost 25 lbs since Sept 3 and I feel great. Thank you for all your wisdom
Thanks for your helpful keto tips. I am watching from Germany. I was diagnosed with breast cancer a few years back. Had an operation, nothing else. I have been sticking to a keto diet and a fasting lifestyle, however, I constantly fall off the wagon. As an emotional eater and bread addict, it is always difficult. Your videos have helped me a lot to be inspired again and start again with more science in the back of my mind. I am currently on OMAD with a ketogenic diet and feel great. Irritable bowels syndromes all have gone. Blood sugar levels are balanced, I feel fresh an fit and the weight is falling off. Thank you x
It's been a lot of fun watching Thomas learn and update his info as he goes along. I love the updated complete guide to keto now that he's learned so much since the last version of it. Keep learning and teaching kind sir, thank you as always. You have a little pep in your step lately, and it's very refreshing, it makes your videos a lot more enjoyable, not that they weren't before, but you get the idea.
Omgosh. I teared up. I have felt like absolute garbage for going off keto for 2 weeks. I didn't go crazy when I went off but everyone I knew thought I quit and was making me feel terrible. My mind was just spent from focusing so hard. I started at 376lbs and I'm almost back into the 200's. I needed this video. Every commandment helped me. Especially the protein and keto police. I was always so damn hard on myself if my Macros weren't perfect. Thank you. Thank you so much.
Ladybug Stampin buy the book, Any Way You Can, by Dr Annette Bosworth on Amazon. It will give you a great foundation for going KETO. It will introduce you to Autophagy and how helpful this process is to fix what ever ails you.
Normally I just want all of the bullet point items in your videos, but this was a refreshing way to address a list of items. Instead of just going through the list, each item is it's own scene and story, it's own segment. You provide some mental break or white space for us to digest or appreciate what you're going over.
Hubby and I are still fairly new, a couple weeks of doing keto. This has been so helpful already! Goes in depth but still keeping it simple. Thanks for all that you do!
This sodium thing is so true! Literally makes me FEEL. Its like lo carbs and sodium supplementing amplifies my sense of feelings. Everything is better and I seek outside things more. I took a teaspoon of kosher salt yesterday and I randomly left the house without my phone. I ended up walking to a friends house and just hangout then hit the gym. It was like I had things I needed to do and there was no choice to not do them. I just did them. I still feel better and this is the next day for me almost
I have to tell you... your changing my life!!! Thank you 🙏🏼 ❤️.... You give the best information on the web and I’m growing healthier and stronger daily because of it!
Today is officially day1 AGAIN thanks to this ! Ive been trying for 3 weeks almost went mad, seriously. Especially with counting every single gram of carb in fiber, the protein fear and being HELLA confused all the time... This has made life so frkn much easier i wish i had seen this earlier... I've been watching Thomas's content for months but I'm always more on the IF side as i was kinda scared to get on keto, but this is a life saver for beginners (and this is the most I've seen Thomas move in a video ngl it's like a day in a life) Thanks A LOT !
Thank you Thomas. I subscribed months ago, went on Keto for my sons wedding and lost 28lbs in 3 months but then lost focus. I’m type 2 diabetic and need to lose 80-90lbs so know Keto is the best way of life for me. I’ve been searching for the incentive to get me back on it and this video has done it 🎉 Thank you sooooo much 😘🇬🇧
Legit when seeing this title I was wondering how you could provide anything I didn't already know. I was pleasantly surprised as always. Great content, specially the Fiber and Omega's. Hadn't thought about those. Thank you for all the work and content🙏👍
I am following Thomas's program to the tee and it's working BIGTIME! Thank you so much Thomas! You are AMAZING! Oh, and I watched your Aldi shopping guide and I am on track to lose a lot of weight! Thanks!
Thomas, I don't want to sound sappy or distracted by your biceps, but seriously..I felt the love you have for your fellow man/woman. It was like u we're anxiously concerned! I love it.. you rock! Thanks for your time and efforts..I sent this to all my peeps on their way to Balance❤️❤️
Thank you for another great video! I follow your advice and I rely on your info above all others out there. I have lost 52lbs. since February following Keto + fasting. I have more to go, so I am going to continue what's working! Your commandments are very helpful tips while on Keto. I used to freak out when the ketone reading would fluctuate or slip down a notch or two. Thanks for clearing that up! Also, thanks for the Ample link...will try!
Great list! Not what I was expecting. I wish extra protein didn't make me feel super hungry though, but I love it! #8 is so super true. My keto doesn't look like everyone's keto, but it works for me. 130 pounds gone!
Thank you so much for sharing your life..your story. I feel like you're a friend talking to me. I was feeling like I was failing this keto after 7 weeks at a stand still but your videos today have given me a new prospective. Wow! A couple hours now watching you Thank you so very much.
this is hilarious at 9:20 .... just a random message from the shirt "Enjoy Coca Cola" in the middle of Keto Commandments. Great video Thomas as always.
I too have been struggling with health issues. I was diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease 2 years ago. I went from a lean, active healthy person who enjoyed hiking and other outdoor activities to an invalid with an extra 20 lbs. and took 11 prescriptions who could barely climb steps.Words could not describe the depression from loosing everything I loved in life to becoming a hermit with chronic pain. About 6 months ago I became angry and decided not to accept my new life as an invalid.I studied diets and am focused on the MIND diet and KETO. Both include healthy fats, vegetables and protein. I lean toward a mediteran flavores. I am slowly eliminating my prescription medications with a healthy diet, moderate exercise, meditation and rest. I feel so much better. My chronic pain is gone and I have had a significant loss of tremor. I am not advocating the removal of doctor prescribed medications for everyone, but changing my diet and lifestyle has had a profound impact on my life.
Fantastic video as usual, Thomas!!! Wish I had followed these commandments when I first started keto way of eating last year! I am now, though 😁❤️❤️❤️ Keep up the great work 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thanks for not saying "Mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell" rofl. Its basically a meme at this point and I appreciate you elegantly stepping around it :P Great video man this stuff is always so interesting, and my wife and I are starting full time this weekend. Already intermittent fasting as well so really looking forward to it!
Man that video thumbnail of the bunless-burger made me hungry. Its over 7pm and last time I ate was at 12 hours ago at 7am this morning(I only eat one a day). I’ll continue watching this tomorrow morning for my own good.
*Summary* *1. Don’t lean too heavily on MCT * *2. Don’t hate on good carbs * *3. Add Omega 3's and subtract Omega 6's * *4. Get enough salt (healthy salt)* *5. Don’t rely too heavily on ketone levels* *6. Don’t worry too much about protein* *7. Be prepared (with healthy snacks)* *8. Evade the keto kops* *9. Consider fiber (subtract 1/2)* *10. Stick with it (for at least 6 to 8 weeks)*
I have been following these concepts for the last 2 months, best decision I made. I’ve been experimenting for a while for the right diet plan. Thank you # TD
U just saved my mind 😌, I have put myself into Keto but I realized I did that years ago,picked up weight, being over 40 it was difficult, only 20 pounds 💷 no problem, but it was, stress from loosing a sister and well food, couldn't burn it as fast but I've always been health savvy, every commandment I needed to hear, ty so much 😀 a definite much share for overall health
What a pleasure! Thanks so much for breaking it down into layman’s terms..just when you think You know it all..so happy to continue on this learning path!
I always learn something new from your videos. They're fantastic. I am back on the keto diet after a year of carbing out and I'm losing weight again, feeling more mentally alert, less sluggish. I don't plan to stay consistently keto, but I don't want to return to the high weight/tired state either. I think that when I finish the 6 weeks and am at my desired weight goal, I'm going to balance things out a bit. We'll see how it goes!
I found your channel looking for keto Costco hauls. I am amazed at what I am learning from you. Just started Keto 2 months ago. I am going to follow you. Thank you!
This was really great even for an experienced low-carber. I appreciate your insight regarding the keto police. I personally have found my body feels better when I eat fruit a few times a week, and for some reason it doesn’t kick me out of ketosis (apples, avocados, blueberries.. not bananas). I’m always unsure if it’s “ok” to do this and this video reminds me that hey, if I feel good and my body performs well with a little fruit, I can just ignore the police. Also adding that my body needs significantly more protein than the standard keto diet recommends, perhaps because I work out a lot and I’m active nonstop with my kids. 1.2-1.5 grams per pound of body weight for me and I am satiated. Without it I find myself thinking about eating too often.
The 1st rule of the Ketogenic Diet is... You DO NOT talk about the Ketogenic Diet. The 2nd rule of the Ketogenic Diet is... You DO NOT talk about the Ketogenic Diet.
I learned so much from this video, I relied on urine strips and have been so frustrated thinking my low levels meant I wasent in ketosis, not knowing they were unreliable and only measure excess ketones, so thank you.
Early in the video about Carb intake! I understand what you're suggesting however you seem to use the terms "Carbs" and "Glucose" interchangeably quite often. No the body does not needs Carbs. Yes the body does need Glucose. You mention Gluconeogenesis but do you actually require carb intake for glucose? According to what so many in the Keto community, including you, suggest is your body can make all the glucose it needs from protein and other stuff to manufacture the glucose it needs. Carbs not required. Again in regards to Glucose/Carbs: You consume Carbs which in turn is turned in to Glucose. So using them interchangeably can be confusing. Not suggesting you're wrong/incorrect but just some thoughts. Love your stuff.
Hey Thomas, can you do a video on long term effects of Keto? It seems like a lot of people think Keto is gonna clog your arteries and give you heart and health problems long term from eating so much fat. I’d be curious to hear your perspective on this.
My doctor took me off of 2 high blood pressure prescriptions after only 3 months on keto. My heart was working better than it had in 20 years, I'm not borderline diabetic any longer and my cholesterol levels are now normal. It has now been 8 months and I have lost 40lbs with no exercise. I have many disabilities so this has been a lifesaver.
This was the best yet. i enjoy all of your informative videos but sometimes I get information from different sources and it gets confusing. I like the breakdown of why and when certain things which are the rage are appropriate
Another great video and it is refreshing to see a person who is up to date on research and is not afraid to change practice based upon new evidence. If only health professionals would do this..
Hey Thomas. Love your Videos. But could you Talk about Phytic Acid in Nuts like macadamias and If it is nescessary to soak and then dehydrate them. How to store them etc. That would be awesome. :D Thank you
1:thou shall not rely on MCT oil 1:00 2: thou shall not hate on carbs 2:53 3: thou shall get adequate omega 3’s and be careful of omega 6’s. 4:39 4: thou shall get adequate minerals in 8:33 5: thou shall not rely on ketone levels all the time 10:05 thou shall not rely on ketone test strips 6: thou shall not be afraid of protein 13:18 7: thou shall be always prepared 16:45 8: thou shall avoid the keto police 20:00 9: thou shall still consider sugar alcohols and fiber sometimes 22:28 10: thou shall be committed for at least 6-8 weeks 26:43
I love your science based videos that don't put me to sleep. I have learned quite a bit and feel that being informed keeps me motivated. On another note I wish Ample made those meal replacements without stevia. I know quite a few people in my small circle that, like myself, can't digest stevia. :(
Keto + OMAD + 30 Min simple walk/exercise . Do this for 1 Month and see magical difference . I am doing since 1 Week and lost 4 kgs and never felt hungry .
Keto police HAHAHAHAH everyone in my freaking life. They try to bring me down so much. Except, they don’t tell me carbs are bad. They try to make me give in. They avoid me when they see me happy with myself and reaching my goals. They just sit on the couch eating shit and complaining and I’m actually doing something for me. They try to tear me down all the time.
It's like anything in life that takes hard work, self discipline, and ultimately, let's face it, makes you better than they are - better than they choose to be.
I don't know about you but I love it when people are being "nice" and trying to get me to eat things I wouldn't put in my mouth unless I was dying and maybe not even then. And then saying things like "I just thought it would be a nice treat for you", " it's okay to let the diet go for today". All said in a saccharin tone. And I'm thinking if you wanted to do something nice for me you could have brought me bacon LOL. But these are all people I know would rather I either be miserable or fat
You're lessons are really easy to follow. I enjoy your wealth of knowledge and how you present yourself. I've started Keto this week; definitely an adjustment.
Your video quality is going up every video sir. Love you so much and I am thankful for your time and knowledge may God continue to bless you and your channel. :)
24:50 'Sugar Alcohols' - as Soluble Fibre? Our friend? It ferments in our gut? IF it STAYS in the gut, could become a disaccharide. So as long as it doesn't stay in the gut it should be OK for those who get 'inflamed/bloated' easily? A little confused.
Wow! I learned so much from this video. Just getting started on keto with my husband. Thanks so much for sharing all the science behind keto. It totally makes sense!
Well that's an interesting fact, always thought that an excess of protein even by a little amount would increase insulin. Thanks for this clarification!
