If I understood it correctly, this confirms that MCT - although saturated - does NOT have the negative effects other saturated fats have, right? Would add them into my diet.
I'll be re-evaluating eating windows. I had been optimizing for regular fasts of more than 16 hours (e.g., 32), but with leeway on some days. Looks like it's better to be strict every day.
I’ve known about this for 15 years when I was diagnosed with 32 food intolerances in 2008- I still have the card from Immunolabs. When I eat right, I feel better, but it only takes one cheeseburger for me to fall off the wagon for 6 months. But what this guy is saying is TRUTH! I know it, I just refuse to live by it. Isn’t that sad?
Thank you. I have had a debilitating illness for 10 years they has made me so sick every single day. It has destroyed my life in every way. I watched one of you interviews with Dr Gundry and 5 days ago I removed lectins from my diet. This has changed my life. In 5 days I am a different person. I am so eternally grateful to Dr. Gundry, and so grateful to you Tom for being him on your program. Please interview him again and again. This can change many people's lives.
Don’t trust this fraud he’s just preying on desperate people to make money. He’s not a real doctor he’s a surgeon do some investigative research before you trust somebody this fraud!!!!!
@@Mayflower646 1. Nightshade fruits and vegetables - Such as white potatoes, tomatoes, eggplants, and peppers. Goji berries are also part of the Solanaceae family, which means they’re a nightshade. 2: Grains - Whole grains have more, since they are found in higher concentrations in the outer bran. 3: Dairy - Pasteurized milk and dairy products may actually be worse because the heat destroys the naturally present SIgA, which is an immunoglobulin that may help neutralize lectins to some degree by binding to them (7). 4: Legumes - Beans, lentils, and peas. 5: Nuts and seeds - Excluding grain seeds, there is not much evidence to suggest that humans are sensitive to the types of lectins in tree nuts and most flowering seeds. 6: Yeast - It’s worth noting that “only a few reports are available” about the activity of yeast lectins. Just because you don’t see a food on the list, that doesn’t mean it’s safe.
I found this profound. I’m a woman in my 30s with 2 kids struggling with total exhaustion, fatigue and brain fog! Everyone kept saying you are a mother of young children it’s normal. I got so sick and overwhelmed with life (and I’m lucky by comparison) that I started on a journey to improve my life and I’m still only scratching the surface of all the things, but GPs definitely only focus on fixing the symptom not the cause. For the last 6 months I’ve been attacking the symptoms, and am still suffering, after listening to this the cause is clear. My diet is pretty crappy and always has been. I’m far away from cutting all the “healthy” foods that are bad for you phase. I just need to eat less crap to start with. But thank you for this! I’m sure it will make a massive difference in my life focusing on this
Go have your vitamin D checked by the doctor. Low vitamin D can make you feel exhausted and depressed. Read up on what all that vitamin D can do to us when it too low. Also, have your thyroid checked. Eating real whole foods will totally change (and save) your life for the better, but you have to have the energy to make real food and not buy processed or fast food. So ask your doc to run some labs to check your vitamin d and thyroid. I felt the same way you did and felt guilty for not having the energy to be the mom I wanted to be but getting my vitamin D, thyroid checked, and eating healthily brought me back to life. I had to learn this all for myself because your right, GPs just want to throw pills at you. You're doing great.. keep up the great work and Good luck!
Good on you, sounds like you're on the right path. Keep going! And equally important, it will benefit your children very much as well. Both in terms of that they eat, but also in terms of mimicking you as a role model. And VERY true words about GPs only addressing symptoms. Majority only know sickness, and sadly know nothing about health.
@@Badabinger omg this is the perfect way of looking at it, that doctors "only know sickness and nothing about health"! Thank you so much for sharing that. I've had a lot of issues with doctors never actually trying to get to the bottom of illnesses and like someone else above said just "throwing pills at you". But this sentence that you shared really explains why. They aren't even thinking about health! Being tired or exhausted or having brain fog isn't a diagnosable illness so they just don't care, illness is their only focus. Thank you so much for this perspective!!🙏🙏👏👏👏
@@hoppas77 thank you. My friend had the same issue with vitamin D too, mine is totally fine though. My issue is I’m severely low in iron and can’t retain it. The GP sent me to a therapist to help me with my sleep issues before they suggested a blood test, I ended up going the doctor and saying I’m so depleted something is really wrong, and initially he thought I had an early onset of menopause, turned out I had as close to no iron as possible before fainting. Normal is 30-300, mine was 3.

Man, please just give me a straight forward list with an explanation of the basics as to why things are bad and good. For the love of god I don't have the stamina to listen to the 14th guy talking about what he thinks is right to eat when all the info is contradictory among them.
I completely agree with the sentiment, it kinda motivates one to just forget about the whole getting better enterprise if it's all so murky, disparate, and inconclusive.
They need to add a TL:DR section at the end of each video of what was said and how to simplistically implement that into your daily life. If you have the capacity to sit through the science you can make the determinations for yourself, but most people don't have that ability, either through attention span, interest, or sometimes the background knowledge to understand the concepts. However, personal growth is just that, a personal journey. There's never really a "one size fits all" course of action for everybody. Determine what's best for you and trial and error some shit. Sometimes that's all it takes.
It’s easier just to do keto, most people are severely carb addicted. Millennials (and gen x’ers 70’s, 80’s kids) especially grew up on processed commercialized sugar and flour. So going back to basics meat, high fat dairy and low starch veggies are a great reset, the only way I could break the insulin resistance that I was feeling (although not clinically showing).
μηδὲν ἄγαν “nothing in excess” (including excessively long periods of eating, fasting, inactivity, exercise, adherence to one diet or food type, body fat, muscle, skinniness, etc). The oracle of Delphi got it right.
Starting OMAD, i definitely could not eat any veggies or fiberious foods in general. It was intestinal blow out. I can today but it took 6 weeks of eazing it back in. But some times it's un-comfortable. The "low carb down under" talked about taking all fiber out for IBS patients and all symptons went away. Just something to think about. Do not ram rod fiber if you have IBS or gut problems. Please listen to this guy.
This is great, ongoing health education. Thanks for the incredible job you are doing, Tom. What really stands out is Dr. Gundry's depth and breadth of scientific knowledge and the studies he references. I feel a lot more comfortable with his approach to Keto and IF because of that.
So a patient of his has reversed their atherosclerosis using diet and suppliments but he doesn't tell us what the diet is or what the supplements are! Why didn't you ask him Tom Bilyeu? This interview was all a bit vague for me.
The answer is pertinent to that patient’s situation and although he could have been asked to share it, it wouldn’t have been as profound to anyone else because we should understand the prescription was isolated to them.
He’s selling books. I have a friend who bought the book and cookbook and doing the program. She’s lost over 60 lbs, looks 15 years younger, has ton of energy, and feels magnificent.
Always had a good sense of Dr Gundry and his teachings. Great to see him speak on hard points about fats and sugars. Powerful interview, definitely can see how his message has evolved
Tom you are THE BEST interviewer on RU-vid period. Great insightful questions, you are actually paying attention and reacting or asking for clarifications that we as viewers are thinking along.. great job man thank you !! ..
1. Restrict eating hours to 6-8 hours a day. 2. Reduce or eliminate processed foods -- consume whole foods instead, fresh fruits and vegetables, etc. 3. Reduce or eliminate processed sugar. (White sugar and brown sugar added to processed foods, high fructose corn syrup.)
My eating window was 8 hours a day, I got used to it and I felt good, so I spend two years eating that way. I think it could work for a short period of time or doing it in alternate days, but that long it seemed to stress my body too much.
I don’t understand why a lot of people in the comments are criticizing Dr. Gundry, his explanation is amazing. If you take the time to watch the whole video, you will definitely understand what is happening in your body and probably get an idea of the habits you need to change. He can’t tell you just eat this..and that and you will fixe your gut problems. Our gut is complicated but fascinating at the same time, it has a huge impact on our mood and our energy. This is probably one of the reasons why ancient people used to say “trust your gut”.
@Fiona.D Thank you so much for sharing! You are right, there are so many different informations that we get so confused. I will definitely check that documentary. You said oils are bad, even avocado oil and coconut oil?
I've been seeing more people talking about soaking your seeds/nuts/oats to help remove or at least reduce the amount of phytase (phytic acid?) in the outer layer. I don't know if that's related to Tom's issue with pecans, but it definitely helps
i soak my beans in water with a splash of apple cider vinegar. leave them on the counter for 12/16 hours. then i instapot pressure cook them. my tummy now loves beans!
Do not forget Dr Ekberg! I like Dr Berg bit Dr Ekberg goes deeper in details. Both Dr Ekberg and Dr Berg are initially chiropractic and holistic doctors not allopathic doctors which for most if them pills sellers! Dr Gundry is an exception, very few allopathic doctors reverse their view on how to treat patients, the generally treat the symptoms not the root of the problems.
Dr. Gundry is the best of the best. I never tire of hearing him and he is in my life in one way or another each and everyday. Thank you for having him on.
Wish he’d outlined a diet or listed several good foods to eat. I love the interviews, this however did remind me a bit of a 45 min ad that drags on without any day to day usable advice.
@@allaaboutpoker2491 It's basically a cleverly disguised 45 minute advertisement for Dr. Steven Gundry's book. The doctor gives almost no day to day useable advice. Which means I automatically don't trust him enough to buy his book.
Tom, I recently subscribed to your channel and I LOVE your content! One piece of advice tho - you interrupt your guests way too frequently in the middle of their sentence. Anyhow, this is not a hate speech, I love your stuff, so don't take it to heart. And Keep up the amazing work!
I remember an author who wrote a book about eating intentionally spoiled foods, raw meats, I think and was interviewed in, IIRC, 60 Minutes. The author shared that he was very sickly since he was a child and has gone through every type of medical doctor for a cure of his chronic condition. His last desperate move was to an Alaskan tribe, where the native healer fed him spoiled? whale innards. This made him sick and was out for a couple of days with a fever. But after this ordeal, the healer explained that the bacteria in the spoiled meat helped his gut bacteria to make him healthy. The author continued this practice, and this being the foundation of his book. During the interview with 60 Minutes, a Health and Sanitary Inspector was presented to see the jar "food" of the author, and even see the author dig into the jar. The Inspector said to the reporter that normally people who would eat that spoiled stuff will eventually be sick and need hospitalization. He was amazed and dumbfounded how this type of food even cured the author. Note: I no longer cannot recall the name of the author nor the title of the book... Though I am quite sure it was a 60 Minute show... Btw, watched it on tv when the internet was not yet that popular...
He regained* lost bacteria. It's simple. Other mammals kept our original biom. We throu cutting mother belly instead of delivering usual way & using antibiotics destroyed our bioms. Nothing can easily fix it. But this method you talk about is one of ways. I don't like animals at home but it probably is a good idea in this context. Kids eating soil suddenly don't look stupid. That's why kids from villages playing in mud e.c. are much healthier than these from cities.
The best way is to go fasting for at least 10 days (can be Daniel's fasting). After that start introducing foods one by one and take a note how you feel. If you become bloated, sleepy, lack of energy or feel sick, then this food is not for you. If you eat something and that gives you energy then keep it.
I have a diabetics consultant ( I recommended Plant Paradox to her) and a dietician, 1 knows even less than the other, neither of them has ever lost more than 20 pounds. They have their knowledge from books of the school of Kellogg's. No diet has worked or could be maintained until this: I coffee-fast about 20 hours and eat mostly stone-baked marinated steak. I lost 45 pounds since April and my energy levels stay up. Occasional hunger feeling is gone before a cup of coffee is finished.
I really like Dr. Steven Gundry and his material and books. I've studied health for 30 years and am in great health. Eat so you feel good instead of just being a moron and only eating for taste, which is a 2 minute process with your taste buds. Healthy food can taste good too and also make you feel good, healthy, strong and energized. I'm weigh the same as when I was 19 years old, 145 lbs a 5' 10" male. All my clothes still fit me. I see people around me eating junk food and even normal food that is empty of nutrients, then wonder why why have many issues with their body health, mind, energy, weight, mood, the list is endless from eating stupid and ignorant instead of smart and healthy.
145 pound is really bad. In my lowest weight, I hit 74 kilograms on the scale, which is 163 pounds, and I was almost emaciated. Wth you talk about, 145 pounds is sick. Visit a doctor.
@@sahtemehdiavcstarkd8712 You are clueless. Slim people live longer than fat people. Obesity is very dangerous to your health. My doctor checked me out for 25 years and always in perfect health while heavy people in my life all have health issues and think that is normal which is B.S.
@@UncompressedWAVmusic I am heavy but not fat. I work out and muscle mass is just great. We cant control how long we will live in a world of uncertainty, but I still think that you are way too slim. Don’t get me wrong. I wish I could see your picture, but 145 pounds is really too low for 5.10 male.
@@sahtemehdiavcstarkd8712 people have different body types. My other half has maintained his weight for over 30 years...5' 9" @ 133lbs. Yeah, sounds really underweight but he is healthy and does not restrict his calories. That is just how he is built. He does not look underweight either, just trim with muscle. People have different densities and builds.
@@manyblessings917 - I can tell by your reply and your Name that you are very wise. Congratulations. I was 10 lbs heavier than my 2 brothers from age 19 to 30 then I stayed the same weight however one brother gained 45 lbs and the other gained 85 lbs.
Great interview. I still go back to this. But cannot BELIEVE Dr Gundry was telling his dramatic story of Big Ed who “cleaned out his arteries & changed Dr G’s life through supplements & BY --“ and as he was about to state the cliffhanger Tom INTERRUPTS, never to go back & explain how it actually happened. Stunning. 😳
I had a leaky gut for a decade and it bought on a lot of allergies with it and I was eating about 4-6 meals a day with snacking in between then after a decade about 2 months ago I started fasting for 16 hours and just ate food during an 8 hour window and my gut has healed and my joint pain and most of my allergies have gone!!!!! My brain fog has gone and I have double the energy by just eating 2 healthy meals a day with no snacking in between
This is exactly what I have been doing for more than a month now plus removing sugar and carbs completely from my diet. Loosing weight really fast and feeling much better because I have more energy and I am calmer than ever.
I did carnivore for a month to reset my gut and in hopes of healing severe celiac disease. I’ll probably never be 100% but resetting my gut, taking time to research the right supplements and doing fasting in there with it did a lot for me. Working on adding foods back in slowly and will forever do an autoimmune style keto. I don’t miss sweets or carbs much anymore. I’m going back to the gym after three months of prioritizing gut health and reproductive health by quitting birth control. So excited to gain muscle and be healthier than ever!
Be careful. The Organic chicken and salmon are ok ,but the red meat ,sugar,salts, corn, fructose are dangerous. Dr David Sinclair Lifespan Book . He’s reversing aging in mice and now adults . We even have to watch our brand of Olive oil . If you were born by Cesarean Section ,then you have to be careful because a vaginal birth gives you excellent microbes ,where C Section does not . Dr Terry Wahls reversed her severe MS with the Paleo Diet and Coenzyme Q10, Vit D2= D3&K2 , Zinc,Quercitin, mushrooms, time released Vit C , nitric oxide, water and Dr Carloyn Dean ReMag Liquid Magnesium Chloride,is the best magnesium + Krill oil . 🙂
@@weedylock nothing would surprise me at this point that it would do something like that. I’m off for good and my husband and I were able to conceive baby number four. He’s getting a vasectomy so we don’t have to worry about more children and I don’t have to go back on birth control after this pregnancy and birth.
@@maryssaann congratulations. You sound very informed. I might be similar to you because of the autoimmune thing getting screened for now. I am wondering if it would be safe to make a brownie with some sorghum flour and good chocolate? That is one of my downfalls, I like chocolate! I even tried accpuncture to deal with being hooked on it.
I’m a celiac and I totally heeled my gut when I stop eating grains all grains and even gluten free oatmeal. rice, corn even quinoa. Also can’t eat restaurant food. I’m finally well. Good luck
I have been on my couch or in bed for the past few days, suffering with ZERO energy. Then Tom mentions his experience with pecans. I just bought a bag of them to add to my daily organic salad meal for some diversity. This was my ah-ha moment! I knew it must be something I was eating, but could not pin point it! Thank you for this info and however I stumbled across this video. Bye bye pecans!
It was very frustrating that he doesn’t go into specifics about what foods to eat or how to go about figuring that out. The only actionable thing I heard was time restricted feeding and I think most people are already convinced that’s a good idea.
Read The Plant Paradox. Avoid night shades and whole grains (unless they are fermented or have no gluten). Be sure to pressure cook legumes. Avoid processed foods. Also test different foods to see how they affect you.
I have been getting tired right after eating and generally feeling weak in the last years. I then found out that if I eat less carbohydrates I don't get tired anymore. To not get tired I didn't eat more than two toasts or a bowl of rice at a time (together with protein). Then I read that copper is needed for energy production from carbohydrates and that copper deficieny is common (I live in Europe). I took a supplement with 2mg copper every day and after a few weeks I tested it. I ate more carbohydrates in a meal and didn't get tired. Tested it the next day again, same result. My body temperature has been to low for many years too. This also has changed (energy production). I'm not getting cold as easily as before. But this could also be due to eating more protein (while eating less carbohydrates) and getting more muscles, since I'm slim.
I am so disobedient that I’ve known about this for YEARS. I just don’t want to change my diet. It’s too much work. I have 32 food intolerances and now a thyroid problem. I’m just ornery. I workout for a couple of months, eat perfectly, and lose 5 pounds. So I get frustrated, give up then 6 months later, “try” again. Maybe I need to visit this guy.
What exactly did you learn from the talk to implement that change in your energy? Cuz I just spent the time listening to this and gained NO vital information to improve my energy. Purchase the good Dr's online products? Is that the only way? lol
Another great interview. I have been very influenced by Gundry . Using instant pot and soaking beans, etc, etc. Using one of his products also and finally have better digestion.
@@protoword10 I don't know this microbes produce real gas and stink. My stool is great I don't have constipation half of them died when I drink water with ginger in 2 days. This is better microbes than they sell in amazon. It's a unique sweet potato smell not so bad but the texture its like powdery when cook then cool. Get it it's good.
I really, really love the information you are sharing with us. How simple and easy health creating habits can be! Ought to love my microbiom more. Thank you again!
45 years in the workforce, harder and harder, to stay employable ..I've spent a lifetime, trying to do, all the right things...sensitivities to foods, is another issue. .bosses, that want you to work " faster ", and produce more...you wound up, cutting out your breaks or reducing your lunches, gulping down " energy drinks " for either the split - shifts, or overtime, or 6 other duties, they want you to do, for the same salary ...the snack machines are loaded, with sugar/salt induced snacks, not healthy stuff ..if this isn't pointing to being a " junk food addict " I don't know what is ..even to make the " time management quota " by Friday, to keep your job, you've gulped down how many, energy drinks, coffee, to maintain those reports the bosses, and the company, demands !?
They made fun of me eating banana or carrot daily instead of breakfast haha I don't do carrots and limited banana but I would still shock them with red paprika or saurkraut haha
What kills your energy is the constant imbalance, abuse and drastic extremes that people do to their bodies. Obviously that binge eating pecans would invariably hurt the body in the long run. Despite labeled as " healthy " they still have components that hurt the body when over eaten. People need to learn their bodies are like a scale and when you tilt too much to one side , the effects will reflect. Too much junk foods leads to A,B ,C causes. Too much of healthy food leads to X,Y,Z causes. Balance the intake and you won't get any causes. Unless, of course, your body can't really process it. Genetics also play a big role . I've seen healthy people dropping dead or clinging to their lives and old people with the nastiest habits dying as old as time itself. " Oh I can't have this , oh I can't have that " People nowadays browse constantly and constantly are fed new information of what hurts and what doesn't. The results of that is them tip toeing and living in a constant struggle because they block themselves from doing or eating things that taste good, because health gurus and nutrition gurus say they can't or shouldn't. This needs to stop and a balanced education should be the way forward. I see people almost feel guilty for having a mere ice cream, a bowl of pasta or fried food because of sugars and carbs and transfats. They then stress their bodies and mind to oblivion exercising , dieting and mentally fighting a simple craving they had, like their lives depend on it. In my opinion the only good thing that came out of this doctor's mouth was the time restricting feeding. Because that is the logical thing to do. Digesting consumes a lot of energy, that's why people feel drained shortly after a meal. Same with snacking. If you're constantly snacking , the body is working around the clock , digesting and pushing the food out of the body. Much like a machine, it can't work around the clock. It needs a break. Point being : Exercise , balance your diet and indulge yourself. You'll be dead anyway someday. I much rather prefer to accept a friend's invitation for lunch or dinner and eat the carbonara or fast food he cooked or ordered and have good times , than staying at home eating a salad because that is supposed to be healthier. Don't do that please.
very true, we didnt come here to be perfect, it is funny that you will find people with unhealthy lifestyles living longer than people that have healthy ones, obviously this isn't the case for the majority. But you also have a soul, balance is the game, indulging here and there can be good, especially if you are meticulous most of the time
@@stellur321 Exactly . That's why people who lost weight , get it back double or triple . With so much around us, It's virtually impossible to keep such strict discipline. People burnout , they quit, they get fed up and tired and they let themselves go again. Unless you are a chinese monk . But even chinese monks take it easy once in awhile.
Hey!!! I am 18 year old from India. And one of the things on my bucket list is yo be interviewed by you!!! I hope that day comes soon. And I hope you'll continue this at least until I am ready to be interviewed by you. Lol
Two of my favorite people. Super exited. I have a question tho. If eating nightshades, beans, legumes and grains are bad for you. Where would you het butyrate from to feed your bacteria. Or am I missing something?
I have researched this subjects loads and think to sort a leaky gut and thus most disease, you need to avoid gluten, a1 casein dairy, sugar, seed oils completely(ev olive oil, coconut and avocado are all ok), alcohol as much as possible. Also, nightshades if you have arthritis. Eat loads of vegetables..salads...some fruit (upto a couple of pieces daily...or preferably berries) nuts and seeds, meat, fish, eggs, a2 dairy, well soaked, rinsed and sprouted legumes occasionally. Eat as much organic food as you can afford and intermittent fast. When you give up gluten and to some extent type a1 casein dairy...you will probably experience flu-like symptoms for a few weeks(this is due to the opiate-like effect of these substances on the brain). I also took L glutamine powder for a few months(a tsp at night in water) which helps mend the gut. Good luck on your journey to health. ✌
As a fast food restaurant general manager I often struggle internally because sales wise or just me doing what's expected, we are supposed to suggest cheese with fries, cookies, turnover and shakes or larger sizes to people and I KNOW we all should be avoiding these things and I myself try to avoid these things. 🤦♀️
First time watching this channel. I would enjoy the video much more if the visitor wasn't interrupted by Tom in the beggining. It wasn't really bad or that usual, but it felt a bit impolite to me. I'm just leaving it out there because it's one of the things we do without really realizing. Nice content anyway.
A few years ago I started to have brain fog, fatigue, IBS, joint pain, inflammation issues, extreme weight gain problems. Though I was pretty active by working out 5 times a week and going hiking often. My body started to hurt a lot, I started to get weaker, to the point I couldn’t do certain physical activities that I enjoyed. My primary doctor would just prescribed me a whole bunch of medicine that didn’t do anything. would tell me to eat lots of legumes, and cereal with high fiber. People would tell me that it was just my body changing because of older age, though I was only 28 years old. Now I’m 33 years old, Nothing my primary doctor told me to do was working so I decided to try something new. First I changed my primary doctor to someone that took my symptoms a lot more serious. I also started to see a well recommended holistic doctor for about a year, and I noticed I felt better with all of the different things we were doing. My energy came back, I’m able to focus again, my digestion got better. Some of my symptoms were a result of leaky gut. It has been a hard journey, and I’m still not 100% well. I had to take a break from seeing my holistic doctor because it was so expensive, but well worth it.
Thanks Tom, this really made things fall into place that were confusing before: I didn't understand how Carnivore diet could have positive effects and how MCT could be good despite being saturated. Got ideas for both now, good starting point for more research^^
Humans are hunter gatherers. We are designed to eat a fatty animal based diet and gather edible plants and fruits when animal products weren't available. Saturated natural fats are our friend, yet we've been conditioned to fear them, hardly surprising as the people telling us they're bad are the ones who make money when we're fat and sick. This makes looking at research difficult, as the paid peer reviewed studies are designed and paid for by people who need us sick. You're better to look at the healthy tribes around the world and look there, or read the thousands of long term n=1 studies on health forums. I'm now ketovore and thriving in a way I never did when eating plentiful veggies and fruits. I've been omnivore, plant based and animal based and in my personal n=1 experiment, animal based is the clear winner by a long, long way.
@@sportysbusiness Happy you found something that works for you! I'm not quite taking the argument of intentionally altered research, especially when the alternative (plant based) is cheap. While the argument of "healthy tribes" seems plausible, there's too many factors in observational studies that make interpretation hard. I'm searching for a specific gain: longevity and healthspan. Evolution didn't optimize us for that yet, so we need to rely on controlled studies that can determine cause-effect relationships. We (me specifically, but also the scientific community) are still learning, and the various contradicting results show that it's pretty complex and sometimes individual and there's still a lot we don't get yet.
@@peacefulbeast8386 have you tried reading the studies that led to that categorisation? They are shit. They found a very weak epidemiological correlation using questionnaires. It is simply ridiculous. Other effects like obesity, lack of sun, diabetes, are like 20 times more significant
The thing about lectins in tomato seeds for example if you eat raw tomatoes the seeds pass through your digestive tract unharmed and sprout if your feces are left in a favorable location. So therefore how can tomatos cause you harm from the lectins in their seeds?

Keto since June 2019 lost 75 lbs. In pretty good shape healthwise. Im varing my fasting (I am 62) I have seen that the varing is better for me. I have been the same weight for 2 years. I dont understand what I need to do to get out of this stall? I like time restricted eating.
What supplements did you and Big Ed take that ended up giving you these results? How was it they worked? Did you use what you learned from that to help with your book?
I’m 28 with three boys 7, 6 and 2. I feel very out of place because I’m never in short supply of energy. I mean yes kids can cause frustration and feeling tired from having to keep up 24/7, but it’s never been a lack of feeling energized or mentally and physically able to keep up with them. Despite autoimmunity, I have a hard time relating to other people my age with and without kids. It’s almost a competition to see who is the most tired and burnt out. Not a good game to play in my mind. Take the time to learn what your body functions the best on, get your blood work done, fast if you’re able and weight lift. Makes a world of a difference. And if you say you don’t have time, that’s an excuse.
I can so relate to the pudding transformation I definitely have an addictive personality and so here comes my new latest passion is rice pudding well what do I do I start looking up rice pudding recipes and being over 16 million was pudding recipes on the internet I figured well I got some work to do but let me tell you eating 40 lb of rice pudding every month is not what you would call optimum and when I quit the process and the pudding I definitely saw a lot of health factors improve it's really not rocket science I guess
All these people whining in the comments about being confused.. Dr Grundy is not here to give you answers to all your problems. He is giving information, it is up to you to use it as you wish.
Feels! I'm reading the comments like obvi these folks don't really be on Tom. Ain't no one said it was quick nor easy. Remember some real cool dude saying, struggle is guaranteed, success is not. This the struggle. This the work. Stop crying and be a learner.
You didn't follow up on the 'Nitric oxide' and Hydrogen Sulfide levels helping break up plaque!!!! How do we get that to happen with food intake! or are supplements necessary.????It seemed like that very, very important fact was just skipped over..
L- Arginine with adequate levels of B6, folic acid , B12 helps stimulate the release of nitric oxide that causes smooth muscles lining blood vessels to relax . B3 or Niacin / nicotinamide capsule also helps as well as reducing inflammation with in blood vessels and reducing levels of bad cholesterol
The pecan thing makes sense now, I was eating a pecan cookie on a daily basis, and every single day I had headaches and feeling tired, as soon as I stopped eating the cookies, headaches was gone. From now on I'll just tell people I am allergic to pecans 😂
After an endoscopy I was told I had five stomach erosions (not ulcers from bacteria) and was put on Omeprazole. This was allegedly caused by excessive use of NSAIDs for pain and cramps. I was never told how to heal my gut but presume erosions would also mean "leaky gut" or a permeability. How to repair ?
This was complicated. I'm not sure I even know what to do. 1. Restrict eating to 6 to 8 hours of the day. This lets your gut and your mitochondria rest, and you'll have more energy and your gut will have time to heal itself or something. 2. Don't eat processed foods because they send all the macronutrients to your mitochondria at once. Your mitochondria get overwhelmed like a traffic jam and slow producing energy from these nutrients. If instead you eat whole foods and let them naturally digest, you'll send things in the right order to mitochondria, thus producing more energy. (It's not clear what these pre-digested foods are though...) 3. We may all have intestinal permeability, or leaky gut of we have energy problems. It can happen easily in our modern diet because of numerous reasons like eating nuts, eating processed foods, not eating enough variety. A leaky gut may or may not form because the good microbes in the intestine are not being fed and dying off while bad ones proliferate. Not clear on all the ways you can get a leaky gut...
It feels confusing perhaps due to information overload, take it one step, one takeaway at a time. I've been healthy my whole life, but truly been 'studying myself' for about 8 years now, and every year i've made progress with what foods work for me. I have so much energy! :D for example - i am a fitness instructor for work (i teach AND do the class simutaneously) i teach 10-15 classes a week, and weight train 3/4 times a week, run half marathons weekly also. My diet is basically paleo, with personal refinements
7:00. too funny. I rarely watch tv or Netflix etc, because I'm too busy, but I have Covid and literally spent the last two days in bed binge watching Netflix. 😁
