I followed Dr Berg and Dr Fung when I decided to lose weight back in June last year. My height is 183 cm and my peak weight was 101kg. Have to say IF and keto really worked as I lost 15kg within 3 months. And because of the result, I basically swore by keto and followed them religiously. After a while, I took a step back and was like "but what about all the basics? Like did my keto work so well because I was also restricting my calories?" So i did experiments, changed my macros realised my weight lost went so well was because I was eating clean and I was constantly at an acceptable caloric deficit. So yeah, Dr Berg and Dr Jason Fung's overall ideas definitely did help me. I think keto worked so well is the fact that it restricted me from refined sugar and fried food (had to avoid the batter) and yeah anyways, eat whole foods, exercise and just watch your cals! Anyway thanks for the vid Layne! Much appreciated!
Keto works well because you’re full of fat that satiates you and because what can you actually eat!? There is no snacking on cakes, donuts, crisps (‘potato chips’), chocolate, muffins, high carb fruits etc, so it’s a very restrictive diet that works primarily by restricting your calorie intake. Look, if it works for you and nothing else does, ignore everyone else and you do you🤷🏻♂️
I’ve done keto and had some good results with it also, but at a cost. Because you’re replacing breads and sugars with more fat, butter and cheese, etc., your cholesterol will go up. My LDL and triglycerides both went up a ton. Your own physician will tell you that it’s not a sustainable lifestyle, but I would say it’s a good jumping off point (only) for weight loss, as long as you can be careful about the type of fats you take in.
@@LastSifu I have a similar story saiken811 has, but my cholesterol and LDLs stayed optimal. I learned Keto via Thomas Delauer, and I think it is wrong for Dr. Norton to call what he says as BS... nearly every video he makes, he references scientific studies. I really think Dr. Norton is just as biased as any of them- he is mostly driven by his own personal experience as well.
@@jerz8289 He only called Delauer out for the things he said that were misinformation, not everything. That’s cool that you’ve benefited from keto, but your own doctor will tell you that it’s not a sustainable lifestyle. I’ve searched high and low for actual physicians and licensed nutritionists that give evidence-based advice. I find Biolayne to be objective.
To all the people who get upset that Layne is bashing Keto/Fasting-proponents: He's not saying it can't work. But if you're trying to sell your way as the *only* way and use pseudoscience to prove it, we have a problem.
It's tough, a lot of what these keto gurus say sounds legitimate, it feels like most things in our current time that people don't want to spend time thinking for themselves or they don't want to put the work in either, they just a convenient excuse...
I found keto very satisfying and easy for maintenance, it's hard to overeat meat, but for losing weight, I gotta count calories. Overall a good experience, and crazy effective for purging excess water, but it's not something I could do for life. I'll be dipping my toes in the keto pond from time to time. Moderate carb feels more like balance.

0:40 Honorable Mentions 2:56 #5 Greg O'Gallagher 4:53 #4 Paige Hathaway 6:37 #3 Ben Greenfield 9:11 #2 Dr Eric Berg 10:54 #1 Dr Jason Fung 13:12 Closing message I vote 'Dr' Eric Berg as the worst offender of all
Admittedly I have been following a couple of these individuals for a long time. While I'm not ready to completely dismiss all of their claims/ideas, this has at least got me started to question some of them. It's uncomfortable, but I think that's a necessary part of growth. I'll be keeping an eye on them as well as this channel.
You should always keep a open mind to all views. I don't agree with some views from layne as well, but I do watch his content too. Layne for example is dismissive of seed oils. I find the high amount of omega 6 LA to be a concern especially when majority of people in North America do not consume enough vegetables to prevent peroxidation and omega 3s to balance the ratio.
I'd say Dr. Berg is the worst. I watched his stuff for about 2 months and slowly noticed directly contradicting information in his videos time and time again. As a novice in the world of nutrition, his info sounds just good enough to be convincing without being reliable.
Agreed Not to mention, I believe he's the only person on this list with actual legal action against him promoting pseudoscience. I would use Dr loosely with Berg. He's a chiropractor
@@JaysonT1 honestly, if that's the best argument you can make to invalidate what I said (factual and not really an opinion), then it sounds like perhaps I'm not the individual with the lower education level. Secondly, one could ascertain either a language barrier or a lack of higher education in linguistic skills based on your sentence structure. Berg is a fraud and this is demostrable. Google or Duck Duck Go are your friends. Do a little reading and eventually you'll catch up with the rest of us. Edit: looks like Jayson ran away and deleted his comment. Loser
Holy shìt I'm so happy you finally called out that hack berg. I really appreciate that lol. Berg is the worst offender in my opinion, because he claims to be a doctor, even though he isn't. To me, that's far more dangerous than some guy calling himself real life batman, because the doctorate title earns an instant level of trust from patients or clients that you, as a doctor, are qualified in whatever it is that you're promoting. Plus I absolutely hate the cult following he's produced for himself.
He never claims to be a medical doctor; he has a PHD in chiropractic. Same as someone with a PHD in geography is a doctor, it’s in their title. If I worked years on a PHD I’d use the title lol
@@emmafox2449 except that he stopped practicing and never kept it up to date, therefore not qualified to treat in his specific field. Like how "Doctor Phil" was a licensed psychologist, but quit practicing. Same with Berg. The problem is that he abuses the title of "doctor" to take advantage of layman's ignorance and make it seem like he knows what he's talking about cause "He's a doctor, he must be right." Having a chiropractor give you nutrition advice is like having a foot doctor look at your teeth. Probably not the person you want drilling at your teeth.
@@emmafox2449 he has the title and the right to use it, but because he does not clearly specify the field, people assume nutrition since that is what he constantly talks about. He lies by omission. He 100% knows what he is doing, If You look at the channel description he mentions his expertise in healthy ketosis...., literally says nothing on chiropractic. And If you look for him a little more, you can find Dr. Berg s Nutritionals online and the DC part does not.show anywhere. He also has followers outside of US who do not know what DC stands for. I am not 100%sure the DC part has been there all this time. His youtube is not his worst offence, people pay this as* to help them lose weight.
Obviously, it’s still possible to lose weight on any diet - just eat fewer calories than you burn, right? The problem with this simplistic advice is that it ignores the elephant in the room: hunger. Most people don’t like to “just eat less,” as it may result in having to go hungry forever. Sooner or later, many will likely give up and eat without restriction, hence the prevalence of “yo-yo dieting.” While it should be possible to lose weight on any diet, some appear to make it easier and some to make it much harder. The main advantage of the low-carb diet is that it may cause you to want to eat less. Even without counting calories, overweight people tend to eat fewer calories on low carb. Thus, calories count, but you don’t need to count them..
Hey, man. Full disclosure. I was a Dr. Berg subscriber, and a current DeLauer subscriber. Stumbled upon you while watching some "here are the legit influencers on the internet" video. Have to say, I am impressed, I'm rethinking the content I've watched from many "influencers," and you have my full attention. One of the guys I follow more closely than anyone is Dr. Peter Attia, and I am wondering what you think of him. Thanks, Layne.
I also subscribe and listen to Peter and I appreciate his dissemination of info. One thing that I've noticed about him is that he has had a few guests on his podcast that make money from practicing what they preach or sell. I either don't agree with or am skeptical of some of them and Peter seems to avoid asking the tough questions. He totally avoided the issue of finasteride with his hair restoration guest for instance. Peter also loves deadlifts which are mostly terrible for the average lifter due to risk of injury. He was also spraying down all of his groceries for a while. I dunno I guess it's like anyone else - take what you will from someone and leave the rest. It's hard to argue with his citations when he literally gives you the ability to look at the same papers he's reading.
Attia was trained as a conventional doctor and it shows. He starts out hreat but stops himself when the subject requires him to get too off the conventional beaten path. Its easy for an MD to capitalize on the fact MD is behind their name because most sheep believe MDs are smarter than everyone else Dr Gundry is a big one who throws around how great he is b/c he was a cardiologist for decades “until he retired and saw the light that its not heart procedures that save peilople its diet”. Give me a break.
I have to be honest, once I got past the honorable mentions I was REALLY excited, because it's like, if THEY didn't make the list... I can't imagine the ones that did! I was hooked from that moment on. HAHA
It's hard to avoid becoming apathetic about training and nutritional fads, particularly the latter. The level of stupidity and the apparent lack of logical, deductive reasoning "out there" actually frightens me. I'm impressed that anyone has the energy or even the optimism to attempt to fight the tide of ignorance. Keep up the good work.
"A lie can get halfway around the world before the truth gets its shoes on". I commend you sir, you have quite the marathon to run to catch up, but you still aim to do it.
Great video... very informative. I wish you put this. Video out before I wasted time and energy listening to their ideals. Good to know going forward. 🌻
I believe Dr. Fung deals primarily with later stage diabetics, those near or on dialysis, when dispensing much of the information. Not really directed toward healthy people. Some of what he says could be interpretted that way, but I think he tries to help the sickest individuals. Those who are beyond the scope of information a healthy active person could use. It's just two different markets.
Yeah, the issue is he doesn't even try to make that distinction. He just promotes his philosophy as a one size fits all approach. Another thing is his book is very convincing if you're not very educated about nutrition.
@@theparadisesnare I agree but it's a buyer beware market on information today across all spectrums. Fung is doing essentially what Norton does in marketing to the largest audience possible. I personally don't agree with the philosophy that I'm my brother's keeper, rather an individual takes information as is and can decide the best course for themselves. I am the only one accountable for my decisions, even when the options I have suck.
Feels like he just attacked people because 'IF is only used for losing weight' whereas losing weight is the least beneficial thing. I use IF for my organs(90% organs), hormones (specially insulin/testosterone hormones) and skin benefits only. Lost weight through exercises and calorie deficit. IF is like the least reason I lost weight. Many research does show why you lose weight in extreme high insulin, sadly this guy just said 'doesnt make sense', whereas there is an entire science on it based on sensitivity.
Also I actually did not get saggy skin thanks to IF (I WAS Extremely obese) . And even after staying fit for a year my testosterone level is quite great. My insulin hormones are at its peak. So I really don't know where did he get his studies from. Or did he cherry pick his studies when he says 'it actually drops'.i agree with the skeleton thing he said in this video

The thing that makes me question keto is, why do we need to constantly consume electrolyte's on the diet and constantly make sure we consume the right amount of salt to not feel like garbage and be having heart palpitations. If our ancestor eat like the keto diet im pretty sure they did not have constant access to trace minerals and the perfect amount of Himalaya sea salt with the right ratio of potassium at all times...
That is for the initial phase where your body releases a lot of water with glycogen. It has a tendency to purge salt too, so eat salt. After you're adapted, just put it on your food.

@@d.bcooper2271 it's not the carbs that make you hungry. It's the absence of fibre & protein in the meals. Especially protein. It's no.1 most filling macronutrient.
As a chiropractic student intern, man do I agree with the oncology statements. I am sorry for everyone who has to deal with extreme chiropractic claims that are unfounded. I really do. We get some oncology classes, we have some Medical Doctor professors but we should NEVER claim to be an alternative. If you have some musculoskeletal issues during your journey, whether it be treatment, etc, hopefully I can work together with the oncology department in possibly relieving some pain. My dad had stage 4 pancreatic cancer and the combination of exercises, some spinal manipulation etc helped ease his pain. He obviously took pain medication for the severity of his pain complaints. I would never say I treat cancer, maybe the musculoskeletal complaints that follow their diagnosis. Sorry for all the non empirical evidence claims made by other chiros, truly. Hope everyone has a good day!

I used to follow Dr Berg religiously, despite many doubts, but the tipping moment was when he said that in cases of stubborn fat you can eat strawberries, but should avoid raspberries (or the other way round - either way, a ridiculous claim). He also advised against garlic in those cases (as if you could eat it by the cup). Additionally, he often got the nutritional values wrong (a simple google search could disprove him).
I have been pulled from the grasp of charlatans as well from something similar. Talking about how all nuts are bad except for pistachios. Makes no sense.
Nice vid man :) Just sat with a smile. Seen few of thous u mentioned, listen to their ideas (some good), but some of em is just over the top. By that I mean that they just promoting the one thing, as if their life depended on it.
It's great that you saved your life by losing weight (I assume), but any diet can do that, it's just that keto is easier to stick to for some people. Just because keto works for weight loss, that doesn't change the fact that he is spouting a lot of pseudoscience.
@j scott hydrogenated yes is bad. He was trying to convince people the non hydrogenated Becel was bad and they paid out the government for the heart health label
the criticism of Fung didn't make sense, One thing Fung has said a lot is that his patients don't need skin surgery after fasting unlike bariatric patients that do. You somehow mushed this into a point about fasting not being better for losing weight. Not sure what your point was, it sounded confused and muddled. Like just say a bunch of sh1t and hope something sticks. Ive never heard Fung say its faster or you lose more. Apart from the fact that it might suit people better to fast the other major claim is that fasting protects the metabolism over chronic dieting.... not convinced here. Fasting rocks! not to mention secondary potential benefits like Autophagy
Dr. Norton’s criticisms made sense to me. He basically took a few of Dr. Fung’s claims and talked about the research that disproves them. There wasn’t just 1 claim, there were a few. Also autophagy happens at the rate inversely proportional to your calorie intake. So with calories held constant, it’s the same for people who fast and people who don’t fast. Meaning if you’re in a calorie deficit similar to the one someone who is fasting is in, then you have the same overall autophagy, just happening at different rates at different times. Fasting hasn’t really proven to be more beneficial than calorie restriction. It’s just a method of calorie restriction that some people prefer (me included!). Most of the proposed “health benefits” of fasting is bro science, unfortunately.
What would be your take on dr. Sachin panda or valtor longo on fasting for health benefits along with the chronological studies they have published and continue to release? Where the basis for them is talking about the mitochondrial efficiency and enzyme efficiency that occur during a certain window. Where 12 hour cycles would be the minimum for health yet people tend to continue calories on a 15-16 hour window. I agree that losing weight is a matter of calories yet what about the other sides of health ? Love you stuff
I think it’s apples and oranges. Longo has never presented himself as a weight loss or body building expert. He is into longevity from avoiding diseases of aging. Weight loss is more of a side effect. He does give a lot of attention to Blue Zones and epidemiology, which some people think are suspect. So complicated.
Hilariously ironic, I got a Thomas Delaur ad in the middle of watching this & he introduced himself as "the #1 keto expert in the world". I bet Dom D'Agostino would have an argument with that

I used to have a fatty liver. After a few months on keto, my labs are back to normal, liver as healthy as it gets and I also lost a few pounds. Keto rocks.
If keto lowers intake of excess carbs, that should help with fewer incidents of potential glucose spikes, increase insulin sensitivity, and lower amount of small dense LDL particles which should help cholesterol numbers. In general, it helps a little more than just calorie restriction.

Don't worry about arrogant people who can't understand something they never tried (and desparte for some likes). Keto changed my life .. I lost 30kgs on Keto, NO more asthma or allergies and I can weightlift, run and dance with osteoarthritis because Keto reduce the inflammation in my body. And guess what once I do a cheat day, my nose is blocked and can't do any exercise without pain in my joints. BTW you're one of my favorite Keto stars
The keto diet really helped me with my gains... I started eating lots of tree nuts, and my face is swole AF right now... I can feel my neck muscles growing
Yeah I'm confused. Been on the Kinobody program for a year and have made more strides in fitness and health than any other program. Ads are little over the top but his principles seem in order.
@biolayne, recently subscribed and you are by far one of the best science based fitness youtubers I’ve watched! I’d love if you would do a video on vaping and lung capacity. I kicked a 12 year smoking habit with vaping and I’ve finally gotten to the point where I’m able to run. I’d love to see a video in vaping v smoking and endurance performance ( if it has the same effects, etc) Keep doing you and hope you see this!
Intermittent is not just another way to calorie restrict. It works because it enables people to cut calories in a sustainable way that doesn’t wreck their metabolisms. Whereas small meals throughout the day do not. There are also several studies now where people could loose weight just by compressing their eating window but remain isocaloric. But I guess that is science is done by “science offenders” or is it just science that offends you?
@keto cycler Nah, if you control your macros you will know that its imposible to lose weight only with IF, I do IF and in caloric restrictions, 1900 to lose 1lb peer week, it's imposible while eating 2000, I test on my self with a lot of control, and I only do IF because of time, its easy to prepare one meal a day that 5.
keto cycler right but people don’t believe that bcz they never went until the process of fat burning starts to occur bcz of IF! They stop immediately and never have the chance to see the benefits of it! I do lose weight on maintenance! I don’t even track calories anymore!
Ben greenfield changed my life, he helped me cure autoimmune issues and changed me from a sick miserable individual to a happy healthy man. I am forever in his debt.
Quick question Layne regarding muscle imbalances. If when using dumbbells I can do like 12 to 13 reps for an exercise with my right arm but only 9 or 10 with my left should I only do 9 to 10 with my right arm until the problem corrects itself or still go to positive failure?
I’ve maintained a low carb lifestyle for nearly three years now, and I’m glad greenfield is on that list. Still pouting this “too much protein = gluconeogenicide” nonsense
I’m glad you and Thomas Delauer found a way to collaborate. I think you’re criticisms are valid, but I do enjoy his curiosity and his willingness to go down rabbit holes. You make a good counterweight for the extremes of this tendency.

Let's remember that there are essential fats, essential aminos , no essential carbohydrates
Hey Layne would love to read more about how growth hormone isn't anabolic and doesn't have an influence on gaining muscle mass. Any resources you can link?
You could just google it. It's a well known fact in the scientific community. When bodybuilders use HGH to gain muscle, it's in combination with insulin and not HGH alone, those two seem to have a synergistic effect.
@@iamtheone91 Exogenous insulin doesnt do anything either. Bodybuilders eat more carbs and calories when they take slin, thats why they grow. Their pancreas could have produced the insulin.
I had a friend who wanted me to read the obesity code I read like maybe the first chapter then put it down. I don't buy that crap. She then got mad at me for not having the common sense to go keto and I was like "there's no proof that shows it's a superior way to diet, but okay" I don't really talk to her anymore because after that she starting going off about electromagnetic waves and cancer.

researchers from aarhus university found an up to 2000% increase in HGH during fasting. HGH might not be muscle building (jury is still out on that one), but it is muscle sparing and secretion of HGH promots lipolysis (breakdown of fat). However the effect of fasting might be less in obese individuals because high levels og bodyfat lowers the secreation of HGH.
Very honest question: what is wrong with Delauer? His arguments seems logical and he always points to some researches. Also his physique looks like he knows what he is talking about. I'm not pro or against the guy. Just to want to hear some objective facts instead "he is the worst" or something along those lines.
No cohesive strategy for anything, just a bunch of topics designed to maximise YT advertising revenue. Programs and products he sells that I have bought are rubbish. His results didn't come from the stuff he sells or from keto, as stated by him in an "ask me anything" video he did.
I don't think he's wrong completely, but for my experience with IF I can tell that is all macro counting, I have done even 48hours fasting, and can tell that you will not lose weight if your not on calorie deficit, but IF is good for me, cuz I don't have time to do 5 meals a day, so 1 big meal is great, and at the end it will dependd of your personal preferences. I need to read more about IF though.
Bro... Jason Fung is a physician treating obesity and type 2 diabetes- he's not even in the fitness industry.

Are you serious?

Ohh my god! When I begin my journey 2015 I was so desperate for information or a way to know what was the best for me and I found all those names that you mentioned in this video on youtube and watch all the claims that they preached but I always have a voice in my mind that told me that those extremes are not the way, so I'm happy that I always step back when the solution was too easy. Thank you Layne for all the science information that you provide for us! I'm grateful
So...how's your journey 4 yrs later? Still fat and need some makeup in the morning? Or just listening to your voice in your mind made you fit & slim with a soft and bright skin?
Well Layne, dr Fung base all his views on scientific evidence. Also you mix caloric restriction with fasting in his claims, its not the same thing. As much as I like uour critical point of view, dr Fung treats sick people and for sure knows a lot about metabollic diseases. He is as credible as you are. And he doesn't go around talking shit about others. He minds his tging and literally saves lives with his approach.
I went from 230 lbs to 145 lbs in less than a year, just by staying 500 calories below the maintenance calorie level. No macro-calorie consideration. I ate plenty of oatmeal and white potatoes, daily. I've not gone hungry any. Calories count.
Did you delete the celebrity one? I can't find it. I just found this channel and was looking throughout your channel. Found this video but can't find the celebrity one.
WOW, much hatin' going on here. I followed you a lot on bb.com and I am not sure where everyone is on everything, but here's my take(s): DeLauer - Not a doctor nor does he pretend to be. Layne did not ridicule him, but questions his theses he draws on the scientific research he presents. Berg - I'm kind of with you, but he does not pretend to be an Internist. Fung - I don't know enough Kinobody - A bit creepy, but he's got a physique! I appreciate Nippard and how he presents these things and maybe this is where Norton falls short here. It is TRUE, most research does show that Keto is not, in overall populations, any "better" in the speed of weight loss than any other diet. But as Nippard points out, it could be due to different individuals' preferences, or even as DeLauer states. genetics, that makes the greatest differences in how Keto or IF or OMAD effects their ability to lose weight. DeLauwer was a FATTY, yet he was muscularly HUGE at the same time. So, he had some propensity to something that holds and stores calories more than the "normal" person. So, keto works, for him. But he also attacks inflammation, gut biom health and other things. Berg attacks stress and rest along with IF, Keto and other theories. NO ONE STUDY focuses on all the pieces of nutrition and its impact on the human body -- THEY CAN'T. But, when you put all the pieces together, you get to a good set of theories that can help inidividuals with weight issues, whether Keto, or IF, or simply straight healthy eating. The problem is, most people today do NOT eat what was considered "normal" or "healthy" 40 years ago. Layne - I appreciate what you are getting at here, I just think you are addressing an audience who is sick of attack strategy. You rock in muscle training, but I just don't think this is your lane and not with your approach buddy.
Great info! Thanks for all the insight. I can tell you a have superior expertise in health and fitness due to the large amount of "finisher" medals in the background.
