The Shocking Truth About Carbs & Diabetes | Rich Roll Podcast 

Someone should teach these things at schools bc I'm insulin resistant and my doc (no more), after normal blood tests, and ct told me I'm fine. No special blood tests. Nothing. I had to find out on RU-vid from docs who treating these things and I started keto month ago but I think gonna change it to this. I really believe it.

If you haven’t done so, check out Dr. Greger’s book How Not to Die & also The Starch Solution by Dr. John McDougall :) I’ve had so many ppl in my family with Type 2 Diabetes who would still be around now had they had this information. Be well!

I am a WFPB physician, who just started dating type 1 diabetic on a "standard" diet. I feel like I got a main role in an Italian opera.

Have you looked into Dr. Jason Fung? I find he explains insulin resistance beautifully. In a way so easily understood.

My type 2 has gotten out of control and my doctor just put me on a Keto diet. Then I stumbled onto this book and I’m ready to go into my doc and show her this book. It is a game changer!!!!’ Its great that you have discovered this for your patients!!!!

Wow! Very encouraging to hear stories like this. I'm also T2D and trying to stick closely to a WFPB diet. Oil is added to almost everything but I'm gradually moving away from oil more and more. Please post an update in December! I also cannot wait for my 3-month metabolic panel test. On my last test everything was normal except for A1C.

please keep us updated

I'm curious; did you eat only meat, dairy and eggs?

Hello doctor. Do you agree fatty acids go inside cells? Or they are mistaken of how lipid droplets get in?

And do you think Cyrus is talking about physiological IR and not pathological?

@@mrmingsun they know What they are Talking about

@@mrmingsun Functionally, the IR caused by high-fat diets IS pathological because studies show that if someone eating a very high fat diet suddenly eats a normal amount of carbs, the resulting blood glucose spike damages their endothelium. It will heal itself, but you don't want to keep doing that.

@elizabeth Emerson that’s what the studies showed, but that doesn’t mean you should eat that. It still has absolutely no nutrients whatsoever. It just can reverse insulin resistance because its not fat. But refined sugars are still dangerous. I recommend that you go to the Channel: „The Real Truth About Health“ and especially listen to Dr. Joel Fuhrman‘s talks about fast food and sugar, you‘ll be able to find them on the channel I just mentioned. Please listen to them, they’re so valid - especially if you life in the USA. Good Luck/success!

Do you eat meat or fish at all?

@@elizabetharowolo7651 No.

Dr. Jason Fung explains insulin resistance in a way that is easily understood. When one understands why insulin resistance happens, I think, then, how to eat becomes much easier as well. Good luck to your mom.

Love that a carnivore commented on this video!

Was you mainly fruit-based or vegetable based Did you miss the oil? Any tips for me

Not diabetic but since going plant based my sugars have jumped up so flipping high even though I’m not diabetic and man do I feel it. My mouth tastes like I have just eaten a pound of sugar along with some other symptoms. Just unsure if I’m doing myself more damage than help.

@@sandramcchannel I was pre-diabetic and started following Dr. McDougall’s Maximum Weight-Loss Plan eating lots of veggies, potatoes, and sweet potatoes. Giving up oil was surprisingly easy and I do not miss it at all. I ate fruit to get over my sugar cravings and now eat all-fruit meals for breakfast and some lunches. I’ve lost 95 pounds so far and I’m no longer pre-diabetic! If you’re diabetic, I highly encourage you to get their book Mastering Diabetes to help you get started.

What about real olive oil, avocodo oil & coconut oil?

You need to specify the kinds of oils that you cut out of your diet. The polyunsaturated fats (i.e. the so-called vegetable oils) are the ones that cause damage to the blood vessels and should therefore be avoided at all costs.

You are so right! This was terrific! Cyrus being a PhD nutritional biochemist gives his words so much credibility!

@@nelsnels1219 Right. There is good fat and there is bad fat. All fats are not the same. Eating low fat has been shown to cause a lot of Dementias. I would like to hear what they have to say about that. Dementia has also been called type 3 diabetes. = Too many carbs. Same with meat. You can not lump all meat into the same group . There are bad meats and there are healthy meats. Not all meat is the same. Also ,what about glycation ? Too much sugar/ carbs causes wrinkles, it breaks down our collagen. Need more answers ...

These never happen. My liver enzymes AST/ALT are in the teens. I've been keto low carb since 2018😂

I totally recommend going vegan - I was a (crappy/lazy/mediocre foods) vegetarian for 5 years, and now vegan transition for about a month or so. If you felt a big impact from meat to vegetarian, I'd say the shift is as big if not way bigger if you go vegan! In any case, I'm very happy for you. Fellow swede here.

I think cyrus. Should look into supplimenting his diet with (Ambrtose pills) made by mannatech company, sold on amazon, these pills are known to reverse many autoimmune Diseases, these pills are nautral supplements, these pills do a lot of good for the body, they supply the 8 essential sugar molecules that the body needs, these sugars does not raise your blood Sugar level.

That's impressive

Your doctor is way ahead of the curve. My doctor prescribed amlodipine and a statin. I never took the statin, and I eventually weaned off the amlodipine because my blood pressure dropped too low on the amlodipine. For me, it was Dr. Joel Fuhrman who really drove the message home. It's hard not to tell everyone, but the message usually falls on deaf ears. The people who are most receptive are sick people looking for help.

@@punker4Real He has a condition that he had BEFORE switching to the diet that means you have no hair. He is talking about what the research PROVES to be true, so what does it matter what his hair looks like?

This is verified with a glucose meter.. even I was a pre diabetic.... I weighted 260 pounds with a size 48 jeans morbidly obese.. as soon as i stopped eating the plant sludge and a 90%-99% meat based diet i'm currently at 185 pounds size 33 jeans .. Doctors can't be trusted since all they are is a drug dealer with an office they don't care about the root of the problem, only HOW MANY DRUGS THEY CAN SELL YOU... Fruits = sugar (fructose ) vegetables = sugar (starches, except for TOXIC leafy green) grains =sugar (starches which is just another word for glucose ) if you don't believe what i'm saying is true go buy a glucose meter... TEST after eating your plant sludge..

@@punker4Real "He is telling everyone the wrong information I know people that actually have diabetic IRL their bIood sugar skyrockets 🚀 to the moon when eating plant sludge.... This is verified with a glucose meter.." Thanks for your reply. I'm a PhD university professor and researcher, and part of what I study and teach about is nutrition--and how people get fooled about it. Notice that you are talking about "plant sludge," by which I assume you mean processed foods, but HE is talking about whole plant foods. Eating WHOLE plant foods (intact grains, legumes, veggies, fruit, some nuts & seeds) is super healthy and ALL large, slim, and almost-totally diabetes-free populations in recent history got the majority or vast majority of their calories from whole food carbs (plant foods). There are no exceptions to that--AND experimental studies prove saturated fat causes insulin resistance, you can cure insulin resistance and get glucose levels under control eating diets that have 70+% of calories from whole food carbs. That means eating natural "carbs" is not the villain--eating too much fat that creates insulin resistance and then eating junk food carbs and excess calories is the villain here. All a glucose meter is telling you is "Yes, I have impaired my body's ability to process whole food carbs normally by FIRST eating too much fat and junk foods." The banana isn't the culprit--those high glucose readings are only a sign you've messed up your system. Diabetes is a multi-step process, and as this video explains in detail, the first step is eating too much fat and getting a build-up of fat inside muscle cells. Start at the 56 minute mark and he very clearly explains that. Of course you can lose weight and get glucose under control by eating lots of meat and animal fat and cutting out the carbs, but you are just dodging the fact your body has been impaired, and ... a) you STILL have insulin resistance and carb intolerance (demonstrated by your inability to rapidly metabolize the glucose in a banana and a couple of slices of bread), b) if you DO eat any significant amount of carbs--a normal human thing to do--the resulting spike in glucose levels damages your endothelium, and c) diets high in meat and animal fat cause more disease in the long run, from heart disease and all its spin-offs to cancers and neurological diseases. What Cyrus is teaching about here is the method of actual curing all facets of diabetes AND eating the diet the provides the best overall long-term health. The research clearly shows that the best overall long-term health outcomes result from eating diets that are very low in fat and dominated by whole plant foods. Take care.

I guarantee intermittent fasting will change your life for the better! You are going in the right direction. Over consumption is why most people end up with diabetes. Besides eating a crappy diet. Avoid bread products and corn products...its like eating garbage

Same your money and buy Dr Bernstein diabetes solution instead.

A few years ago, I felt so tired after I had meals without knowing my blood sugar was so high. I ended up A1c around 7.2 amd cholesterol was very high and triglyceride was high. Then I started cutting lots of carb from my meals and added lots of veges. Also I boiled water with cinamon, green teas, ginsang, mulbery leafs, bitter melons, jujubes, other herbs and kept drinking it. Then, when I go back to the doctor, Ab1c was drpped to 5.3 and all kinds of cholesterol got within normal range. By the way, I was taking Metformin 500 mg once a day. So manage your diets, you will feel a lot better. I wish you all the best!

Yes, as a young person in my 20’s I also began struggling with hypoglycemia. No doctor actually told me then that this was a major problem that would lead to diabetes later in life. I was only told not to wait too long to eat between meals because my blood sugar would drop. Eat something sugary real quick to get my blood sugar back up. It often made me sick for the rest of the day. Then in my 30’s pregnant with my daughter, I was diagnosed with gestational diabetes and told I would likely become type 2 diabetic later because of the now gestational diabetes diagnosis. Well by the time I was going through menopause symptoms I was also diagnosed with diabetes. I was in my late 40’s. Doctors has 3 decades to teach me about diet and how to change what was going on in my body so that I never became a diabetic despite hypoglycemia and gestational diabetes. They just let it take it’s course and then ordered me into dietary classes and classes about diabetes. Learning how I got there. I was thinking wow, why didn’t the doctors put me in these classes when I was in my 20’s, 30’s and 40’s. They knew I was spiraling out of control because of my American diet and they all just let it happen so that some doctor later would have me as diabetic patient seeing them every three to six months for the rest of my life. Pathetic to say the least! Where am I now? I was able to bring my A1C down to 5.6 two years ago with Ozempic. I had already lost 30 lbs years before and had A1C numbers below 7. I stopped taking Ozempic because of a side affect related to the pancreas if a person has something wrong with it. I have a benign cyst on my pancreas and do not want Ozempic to cause inflammation there. So my numbers are back up again though I’m working out 5 days a week. It is my diet 100% because I have rigorous classes including swimming and walking. Can we please get the truth behind what we are eating. This all starts from the time a baby begins eating table food. I wish I knew when I was having my children. Now I’m trying to get them to read about diabetes and listen to videos like this. I feel like it takes a lifetime for people to listen and learn and make drastic changes.

@@incifisenk9945 Hi colleague! Same thing here in Finland. I irritate nutritionists and health professionals, who (for the reason I can´t figure out) don´t want to hear/read/discover about the different health effects between animal and plant proteins. Fortunately patients are more open minded. In what country do you live?

Soili Kasanen Hi🙋🏻Thank you for your kind sharing of experiences and observation on your country. I live in Turkey. My mother was an MD, too. For many decades, medical academic authorities had lynched even prestigious scientists who had alternative perspectives on nutrition and medicine. On the other side, for about 20 years my country has been ruled by an islamic government which gives extreme credit to abusive, nonscience, traditional practices. Briefly everything is getting worse for us who hold on scientific methods and rely on science based literature on medical practice. As a clinical microbiology specialist I am lucky; this abusive point of view can not approach to laboratory practices.

I understand. I'm a staunch vegan but keep trying different types of veganism. Right now I'm doing lower carb, higher fat. Some things are better, but some things are worse. :-/

you don't need carbs or fruit. nutrient requirements change on lower carb diets. your abortion rate also increases, which means you get adequate mineral levels. meat has the same vitamins you can get from fruit, to prevent scurvy. the reason pirates got scurvy is cause they were eating dried meat(with deteriorated mineral/vitamin content) and biscuits(which are high in carbs). they were not on low-carb diets at all. so don't listen to anyone who talks about pirates and scurvy.

Did people ever agreed on political or religious issues anywhere? Still my take is Whole Food Plant based diet with Intermittent Fasting. Only add Vit. B12.

I had the same confusion then every 3 months after my blood work I changed my diet to see the impact on my general health and next quarterly blood and urine tests. Finally I got rid of all chronic illnesses by eating healthy Vegan, I mean Plant based Whole Foods with Vit. B12 as a supplement. Let me know if you have any questions.

I totally agree, I've noticed this with EVERYTHING, it seems like people usually follow the guy who is the most confident, where my confusion is, is that BOTH ARE VERY CONFIDENT. I love the internet because you can find out anything you want to, it's fascinating and sucks all at the same time because depending on where you live you adopt what you've always been told. (More so when we didn't have the internet) I live in a world of confusion because honestly I don't know who to trust anymore, it's almost like you loose part of your identity, nothing is as solid anymore. At least that is the way it is with me..
