My doctor gave me a lecture on the dangers of my low carb high fat diet even if the blood tests she had in front of her were all good , at 65 I'm not on any medication, although I'm told the national average is 12 medicines for someone of my age,workout at the gym 4 days a week, my weight is perfect for my height yet she told me my health choice was suicide. I pointed out that her diet advice seems to work because her waiting room was full of people following it, she is no longer my doctor
I have lost 12 kilos in four months, and I feel as never. Today I met an acquaintance who is obese and runs a small restaurant. She was amazed of my new looks. I am going to train her in the keto diet and we she will be offering a keto menu in her restaurant!!! Wish us luck!
But as the Dr said, what about the incredible dangers of this sort of diet? I might lose weight, no longer diabetic, feel better and likely will live longer!
5 months of fairly disciplined keto and I've dropped 40 lbs with no excercise and no hunger cravings. Any cravings I did have were easily cured with a glass of water. Amazing.
rubbersole This is also my experience with the Ketogenic Diet “to the T”. I’m 15 months in now, hitting the gym and getting even more benefits & results. 😎
rubbersole-I did 2 months of nothing but salads for dinner and lost 2 lbs. I started an intermittent fast and lost 8 lbs in 4 days. For hunger pangs, I also drank water and the pangs were subdued.
adrian avram No! My research and my personal experience with 4 years of keto and carnivore diets says otherwise. I’m MUCH healthier and am completely free of food cravings. I have been very surprised at how much better a person can be by doing pretty much the opposite of what doctors recommend.
I was diagnosed with TD2 two years ago. Went LCHF and refused to take insulin. Complete reversal within 3 months. Dr wants to take credit, but he was completely old school. I have told him over and over. By now I suspect he is afraid to admit the truth. I worry so much about his other patients who are broke from buying insulin, and are headed for dialysis.
I am also T2D. My dr was mad when i refused to take more meds to control my disease. Both my foot went numb from the meds and after 3x visit, they ignored it. I had to changed my diet to lchf diet, exercise, and fasting. They told me to eat 5-6x a day and snack between meals which i did. My glucose spikes after every meal so a change was implimented. I did my own research and proceeded with the diet change. My dr never wanted to help me they only saw me as money rolling into the business. They wanted to keep me sick so the profit from my illness.
TD2 also. I wenr very low carb to the point of almost carnivore and had stopped taking medications that my doctor prescribed. I logged my blood glucose every morning and watched it finally creep below 100. After 3mos I revisited my doctor and showed him my log book, told him what I was doing and he had that deer in the headlights look on his face. He started writing me refills and said I needed to take them. He didn't even care how I lowered my A1C. Most doctors (PCPs) are like him. Well propagandized by big pharma.
Ketoers, keep speaking out! The most lasting and beneficial changes in any given culture usually happen because the people at large begin to see that the TRUTH is not what the "authorities" tell us it is! Once you see the truth you can't unsee it! Spread the truth! Others of intelligence will recognize it!
Nina you’re an “animal”...😀 thanks for great vid. Keep up the good work. At age 56 needed bypass surgery. ALL my life ate low fat high carb, exercised religiously, 0 family history of heart disease. Did it by the book. Fat is NOT the problem, carbs are. It’s been 3 years now I put the statins in the garbage, eat HIGH FAT LOW CARB. I feel amazing. Thank you again for a great presentation.
Manny Radzky your story is my story!! I’m 70 and a 40 year vegetarian. Triple bypass surgery and in poor health until I stumbled onto Lchf. Defied my doctor. Quit statins, quit aspirin, lost 37 lbs, lowered bp and feel great. My doctor says I’m all wrong and he won’t treat me for my cholesterol risk. Baffling but I’m not going backwards. I just smile and make my next appointment 8 months out.
That BBC doctor is my GP. Even though I have lost 20kg, am no longer a type 2 diabetic, and I have received many other health improvements, she refuses to acknowledge the high fat low carb diet that I have followed is responsible. She is not a bad person, I have known her for more than 10 years. But she is so invested in the "system" that it seems that she can't see what is going on. I have also given up statins, she warned me, "Mike, I love you so I don't want to see you die!"
If you had told your doctor that you lost the weight on low fat dairy, lean meats, legumes and greens she would be happy and not so confrontational. All doctors know grains and excessive sugar intake are fattening us. Doctors aren't stupid.
There is growing science journal material year by year on PubMed related to these topics. I'd gather a bunch of these and e-mail them to her. Just Google any topic + "pubmed," for example "saturated fat pubmed" ... single studies are interesting datapoints, but it gets more interesting in meta-analyses, which is when they look at the results over many studies and discuss/criticize. There's a really awesome meta-analysis over saturated fat that unfortunately I don't have the link to since I'm on my laptop.
@@martinirving3824 I agree-- I read Gary TAubes 'Good Calories, Bad Calories' @ 12 years ago, which was enlightening and confirmed my suspicions that refined carbs & sugars were the enemy. But I was still missing the other half of the story, which is that healthy saturated fats were our friend. Put them together, and I have the keys to a healthier diet
yep! Sadly enough for many people it takes a lot of repetition and they still think of science as a "democracy game": as in "but the majority agrees that xyz" instead of listening to the rational and then deciding for themselves! It's true for many subjects like George Carlin said (not explicitely about Democracy for all I remember): "Remember how stupid the average person is - and then realize half of them are stupider than that!"
The scariest two pages in Nina's wonderful book, pages 276 & 277, concern the heated vegetable oils that replaced trans fats in fast food joints and the byproducts that those oils create. I promise you--you do not want that stuff in your body ever.
I've been cooking for years using Seed Oils. and sometimes when i eat fried foods, my skin would flair up with sores. Having found these lectures, I think i'll give Lard, Tallow and coconut oils a try.
Cocon oil is a no. Actually all plant fat contains toxic cholesterol. If you are lucky then your body will throw out toxic cholesterol but not everyone can do it and it will create insulin resistance even if you are on low carb diet. Eat only animal sourced fats.
Thank you Nina Teicholz for your work and the Nutrition Coalition. That is exciting news about the overhaul of the dietary guidelines. I look forward to learning more.
3:52....."enter the new thinking"...? Actually keto has been the human diet for tens of thousands of years! The 1970's food pyramid IS the "new thinking" that's killing us!
As someone who works in the healthcare industry it frustrates me to no end, how we are feeding sick people. Diabetics get bread, cereal, fruit and a shot of insulin to counter all that stuff. When a diabetic cries to me how they don't want to lose another leg but they can feel it happening slowly, it breaks my heart, especially because I'm not allowed to say anything. Also people with mental health or neurological problems getting chocolate wheat baby food every single day of their lives. I wish I could make a change
American medical system is not there to help people, but to extract the maximum amount of value from them. There are cults of predatory psychopaths that have entrenched themselves in the system.
Veronika Lah If you know that you are hurting people and making their lives worse you need a new profession. You are just as bad as a corporation taking money from people and knowingly hurting them.
I have lost 35 pounds since I started my low carb high saturated natural fats diet. I lost my obsession with food. I'm finally able to fast for 24 to 48 hours without feeling starved. Although I'm in my mid fifties, I feel great and I weight as much as when I was 25 years old.
Can we produce such mass of green food in a fast and a scalable way? I am deabeties, even my doctor in Russia says that lchf is bad, even I feel the opposite. In our age u can survive just if u are smart enough. Sugar addiction is kind of religion right now. The only way to have “normal” live is LCHF for me. Doctors try to balance unbalanceable with insulin and low doses of sugar, what often leads to higher doses and to the end.
The only solution is to get rid of farm subsidies and government subsidies for NIH, AHA, ACA, etc. and let the free market work. Dietary guidelines don't work and don't need to be reformed, they need to be abolished as well as all funding for any institutions that are based upon them.
Totally agree. In a free market money shouldn't flow and prop up something that isn't returning any value but congress just keep voting themselves raises and increased benefits. I guess the only feed back loop is our vote. Somehow we the people are droping the ball. Where is the political equivalent to Nina to wake us up politically?? Maybe she could take politics on next and come up with the evidence based argurment against oligarchy and tyranny.
The sad part is that you don't know that the free market is the one that propped up these institutes and caused this in the first place. One of the only countries with socialized Healthcare at that time was France, they literally to these guidelines to the garbage and continued their butter and fat consumption in high quantities and still maintained lowest rate of heart problems
There was a time that you could not find lard in any my local large supermarkets near me except Walmart but now most of them are carrying it again but it says "manteca" which is "lard" in Spanish. Almost all health food stores carry it now but in "grass fed"
Truly challenging. I'm,seeing my doctor next week. I'm sure he will parrot the experts no eggs or cheese. Thinking I'll surreptitiously leave a copy of the book in his office!
Every time Nina speaks I gain more respect for her. I see more and more people going low carb and seeing success with it. The public will eventually force change.
@@SenorJuan2023 Losing weight is not the main focus, although that's often the first motivation behind people adopting it, and they continue because their health improves dramatically. But the scientific research and the anecdotal evidence shows that the diet is safe and healthy, and many people adopt it *because* they want to *improve their health.* The more I learn about this way of eating, the more I am blown away by the science behind it! You might want to pick up this video from 4:30--5:10 minutes to hear how the scientific evidence is good for this way of eating. Also from 13:50--27:33. 😁 Someone else you might be interested in is Dr. Matthew Phillips. He has a very interesting video on TH-cam -- "Metabolic Strategies as Therapies in Cancer and Neurodegeneration." Some exciting findings! 😁👍👍
@@SenorJuan2023 Find me a fat person in an old age home. Obesity IS the biggest reason for the chronic diseases and early deaths. But hey, ignore facts and go with the propaganda of the money makers. You are only human after all.
14:58 "She is an animal unlike anything I have seen before." Nice. Nina should run with that as her tag line. He meant it derisively but I think it sounds pretty cool.
mrmeach1967 yes, she’s a sleek, beautiful, powerful cheetah with an intelligent steel trap brain. He SHOULD beware! Thank you Nina for being an “animal“ role model!
Does meat eat up the earths resources? Or does bad farming practices and growing millions of acres of grains to feed cows that aren’t supposed to be eating that to begin with?? If they weren’t farming so much land to feed them improper food that acreage wouldn’t be tilled up and could be used as Natural grazing plots for cows which then may not be having as much an affect on the ecosystem??
Regenerative animal agriculture is the best solution to use marginal lands (2/3 of farm lands) to produce nutrient dense foods whilst fixing atmospheric carbon into the soils, enlarging the water table and providing habitat for other organisms too!
Absolutely love Nina, her mission, her message, her delivery, her courage. I've been on the same campaign for about 15 years and have maybe made a difference in about 2 or 3 peoples life. I can't believe I am about to criticize ANYTHING about this WONDERFUL presentation. I just don't understand how someone so bright and so dedicated and so thorough and .....I could go on in merited praise...could, while giving a lecture on the politics of foods and listing all the players involved, leave out..............the POLITICIANS, our fearless, bold, tireless, sincere, self sacrificing, noble hearted leaders. Weren't any of them paying attention when McGovern gathered all the scientist together in a political spectacle where Mary Enig and others were yellling this very same message and were completely silenced. Nina does makes several mention of unelected committee, but don't we vote and choose elected leaders to represent OUR interest over a corporate lobbyist or a dysfuntional or corrupt committee. During all the 30 to 40 to 50 year span being discussed didn't any elected officials get a single letter or phone call to draw their attention to the scientific sacrifice being carried out for political expediency? Wouldn't our elected leaders stand somewhere near, if not in front of, the academians that she feels bear the greatest burden of guilt. Personally I would put them in front of the academians just behind one other group. The entire voting public who bear the ultimate responsibility of deciding who to vote for and what to feed their children. If our leaders are not representing us and our food is making us sick who is to blame? We have given up our power to politicians, corporations, academians and doctors. With the wonderful job of talented people like Nina following in the footsteps of earlier giants like Mary Enig and Sally Fallon shedding so much light on this topic so clearly, thoroughly and convincingly, it seems we should be able to now sacrifice enough of our time, energy and money from the bottom up to effect a change, holding ourselves and our elected leaders accountable. I guess we could be more careful were we send our children to school but our responsibility their is a little less direct. If we can take enough personal responsibility about what we eat to save our food supply and health, maybe we could do the same with how we vote and save our country and freedom. Sorry if I degress a little. If Nina would have given just a glancing comment about the politicians role in the politics I really would have let that stand on its own. But, she didn't and the omission risk missing the benefit of being able to apply the lesson learned more generally and thus could limit the amount of good her work can have on the U.S. and the entire world. The effects of the food politics she near perfectly describes cannot be over stated. It has affected the life of every single american enormously, personally and financially. The epidemic of chronic illness it has spawned has take years from the life and life from the years of millions and millions (no exageration) of americans and if not turned around could very possibly cost us the democratic republic we have enjoyed for the last 200 plus years. It is a perfect example of the enormous harm that can occur when people are willing to turn more and more of their responsibility and power over to a large central government (oligarchy) or individual (tyranny) made up of people who by their very nature are to easily misled or corrupted. Truly the topic of this lecture is terribly important and stands on its own as a very worthwhile topic that will bless the lives of millions. I just couldn't resist making the connection to the full POLITICS involved, to further bless the lives of other millions from a BENEVOLENT all powerful government that can do so much more for us than just tell us how to eat. That's my contribution to Real Food Politics. I hope it adds, vs. subtracts, to the Nina's incredible lecture and work.
5:08 As Nina reveals here, some things never change. Back in 1931, Royal Raymond Rife and Dr. Arthur Kendall, MD-PhD of Northwestern University, thought they too would be praised after publishing their findings on the ability of microorganisms to change morphology (pleomorphism) in a peer reviewable journal. www.rifevideos.com/sciences_latest_strides_in_war_on_ills_disclosed.html Kendall was instead crucified at the first symposium he attended on bacteriology, six months later at Johns Hopkins. Turns out the symposium chair Dr. Thomas Rivers was an Ancel Keys type intellectual bully who supported Pasteur's opposing germ theory and so medicine was mired in that ideology going forward. I think it still is to a large extent, especially in the field of cancer research. Rife is, of course, better known for developing a powerful, light-powered microscope (his Universal No. 3) and using it to find mortal oscillatory rates (killing radio frequencies or MORs) for various pathogens, including the one facilitating metastatic cancer. The AMA cleverly attempted to gain control of Rife's MOR device (not the same as the microscope) through an ensuing court battle over ownership of the Beam Ray corporation, but when that failed, they proceeded to bully any doctor using an MOR device in their usual threatening manner. As said earlier, not much has changed.
I was afraid to try Keto for years based on what I read...until I tried it. Amazing! Losing weight effortlessly, feeling healthy, calmer. News on this needs to get out!
Keto forever except for birthday cakes, xmas dinners, and maybe the very rare croissant 🥐 haha - like once a month I have a little fancy treat and sometimes I sneak in some of the not so low carb veggies (still try to sneak under the daily 20g limit)(me weighing out some butternut) .... Because you gotta have some fun vices in your life ;)
I believe Red Meat, Eggs, Bacon, and Bacon oil is Pure Gold. Zero added sugar, low carbs, no soy or so products, high fat, are what I believe make me healthy and improves my Testosterone levels.
Unfortunately industrially produced bacon contains dextrose (which is just a D-clucose), at least here where I buy my bacon. Regarding testosterone levels I can second to that, 44 years old and the health indicator points upwards every morning.
I am so grateful for the opportunity to learn the truth about nutrition. It makes me so frustrated to think we have been hoodwinked for so long, and it’s only thanks to people like Nina that we have the truth. Thank you for your honesty and courage to speak out the truth 🙏
I have been lchf for two years. Yes my weight has gone down 70+ lbs but the kicker is that I’m down to 30 units of insulin from 240 units daily. My cardiologist doesn’t like my lchf eating but my PCP of 20 years is now doing lchf.
Nina is very knowledgeable in nutrition, health, and the history of how people have been misled and lied to about food. People like her help civilization... but it’s very much an uphill (and at an almost vertical level) battle. Keep up the good work Nina!
Just like they are not allowed to mention anything alternatives to 'legal' protocol for cancer, heart health, anything not sanctioned by big pharma. I met an oncologist that admitted he would not treat himself or advice family/friends to proceed with chemotherapy; he simply said it did not work. He worked at a large university hospital.
My doctor hates my cholesterol level and wants me to take a statin but she's young enough to learn from me. I'm sixty-nine years old and very healthy, and thinner than her.
8:44 I see some parallels between the pushback on a low-carb and high fat/protein diet and a certain recent political figure. Yes, the country benefited massively, but it seemed to many that a worse president and all that came with that was what we needed.
Thank you for the information on this and other videos you've posted, very informative and encouraging. I've been Type 2 diabetic for a number of years now. In 2 days of dramatically reduced carbohydrate consumption, my blood sugar is down from the 9.0-11.0 range to around 6.0. Information like this helped me make changes in my life. I joked with some family members that I might have to eat a doughnut to get it back up.
May I suggest intermittent fasting? It will reverse your insulin resistance so the carbs you do eat will be utilized better. Watch Dr Fung and Dr Longo, they're terrific!
I went to a new doctor and told him that even though I was eating a Keto/Carnivore diet, I had rapidly gained weight in the last 6 months. I know it was because of extreme emotional stress. He sent me for bloodwork and when he was going over the results, he was shocked that I was metabolically fine. In the "summary" of my appointment it said that I was morbidly obese and that he discussed a healthy diet and exercise with me. (That didn't happen) They have to lie in their summaries in order stay out of trouble.
Beautifully presented.... and validates ALL of my "paranoia" about the medical and food industry's affair. I grew up in Europe eating lard on bread with scallions, and butter with cucumbers on REAL bread.... and meat...and veggies... from our garden. We have a very healthy family on the side of the family that follows this diet.
My issue used to be how to diet diet and diet without any success…. Hardly 2 years on keto and IF and now my issue is how to get as many calories as possible. At 48 I feel same as when I hit puberty… puberty was only time I felt strong and then these carb robbed me of my youth and massive muscles… now at 48 I can do 150 push-ups and can also do cycling and burn 1000+ calories in a session without the fear of collapsing with heart attack… I suspect that I had heart attack at 36 years of age when I tried to box suddenly and almost collapsed immediately I got so afraid that I never did high intensity exercise after that… Then at 43 years of age I tried to cycling and within 5 minutes I felt like I would collapse… again same fear and I didn’t touch cycle again… Then keto and now I have no issues raising heart rate to 191 (max so far) without getting afraid…. Can keep boxing for minutes at a stretch and I feel same energy that I felt at puberty at age 48. Skin always glows and muscles feel full of strength and mentally feel agile enough to race gravel bike to nearly 60kmph with the fear of loosing control on gravel roads. I feel alive.
My 68 y.o. friend had his Hb1c up to 11 and blood glucose up to 310… He was on 4 different medications …. In October 2021 I’ve explained the low carb diet concept to him. Specifically, I’ve mentioned that insulin resistance is a self-defence mechanism that our cells have to use to prevent unnecessary excessive glucose uptake. Cells already have too many glucose inside that causes intracellular toxicity with advanced glycation products formation. So, now February 2022….. his Hb1C doesn’t jump over 6.4 and highest glucose in last 2 months is 140. He only take two medications instead of 4… and he doesn’t take it everyday! Pretty much, nowadays he only uses medication 2-3 days a week when his blood glucose is over 120. I am on low carbs/keto diet as well and I lost 76 lb., lost high blood pressure, high TG and borderline Hb1c.
Its now almost 10 months since my 69 y.o. friend is on low carb diet.... His blood glucose is within 100-105, the Hb1c is below 5.5 and.... he stopped all 4 diabetes medications, additionally he has stopped Losartan (high blood pressure pills) and he does notice that his skin looks healthier and his muscles got some growth. Despite blood glucose levels of 100-105 his endocrinologists tells my friend that he has to keep taking diabetes medications....Just in case!!!! Yes, that doctor told him to continue taking pills just in case if diabetes will come back... Great, heh?
in 1980 i was 20 i went to a hospital for 2 months went in at 126 came out at 150lbs bipolar was the cause i am now 60 ant fat with lupus i think keto is what i want to try i need to get healthy thank you shame on america for getting us fat i know i made poor choices i love sweets hope its not too late
Nina, thank you for being you, so funny & truthful. It is sad that as a scientist myself & did some research at college. I was taught to be truthful about reporting the result of the experiment, unfortunately I noticed some scientists just care about getting grant money, & don't care about being not bias. You are very right that I was told at college by a nurse practitioner that I need to lose weight when she was very much overweight. I tried low fat diet, it worked, but I felt hungry every 2 hrs & it was not sustainable. Once I left college & started to work, weight was creeping back up. Now, with Keto & Intermittent fasting, I am free from feeling "hangry", & lost more than 40 lb, & keeping the weight off, & have the best health comparing to when I was on high carb diet.
When I first started low carb back in 2003 I began looking at the reasons why our traditionally accepted diets were so harshly encouraged by our governments. I saw a trend throughout history in that when the population gets hungry they tend to revolt and leaders tend to wind up 6ft under. that isn't something that people in power want so they came up with a plan. using newfound science and psychology they realised that carbs were cheap to produce, store, transport and distribute and this gave them an idea. If they could keep the bellies of their people full the people would be less likely to revolt even if they weren't actually happy. it had the wonderful side-effect of making them fatter, heavier and more lethargic and as we know if you can sedate your enemy they are not capable of really doing much damage to you. None of our governments do ANYTHING because it is in the best interests of the people. They only do things that help to keep themselves in power and if they can increase their wealth along the way, all the better. So it made perfect sense to use psychology to brainwash the general public. And who cares if a few people know the truth and try to spread it? Just label them as conspiracy theorists or kooks and the masses will turn away from them. Even if you have one of these kooks standing right in front of you showing you that what you are doing is killing you they will be ignored by everyone...except other "kooks" Never underestimate the power of self-induced ignorance. Most people really don't want to know the truth as the truth is often uncomfortable. Why should they turn away from sugar when it tastes so good and gives them that high they are craving? Something that tastes that good could NEVER be bad for you after all. So the lemmings just keep lining up for their insulin shots and will keep searching for a better deal on their grave site because they know they'll need it soon. The bit shown here about nestle being so perfectly vertically integrated reminds me of a series of commercials I saw on TV one night. It started with a commercial for "golden corral" and their new chocolate and butterscotch fountain dessert bars (complete with marshmallows btw). Next came a commercial for a diabetes drug to help manage your blood sugar, followed by one for a law firm and one of those "have you been hurt by this drug" lines. The commercial break then ended with one for a life insurance company telling you to give them money to help prepare for your death and take care of those you leave behind. I was POSITIVE someone in the cable company was trolling the viewers as the chance that this was a random occurrence was just too big to believe.
Interesting comment. You're correct in that people choose to be unaware, especially when it threatens their self-worth. Nina spoke about the scientist who has spent her whole career believing and researching how high fat diets lead to heart disease, now imagine when her core belief is challenged how she will react. Even in the face of solid data people will reject it to protect their self-worth. In addition, humans engage in confirmation bias to comfort themselves in the knowledge that their belief(s) are correct and rarely challenge, or scrutinize their beliefs, which makes change process so difficult to effectively engage in.
On a side note, the text on the presentation page 'status quo', was actually the logo from the British rock group Status Quo. Great presentation. Great group.
I am thankful for Nina’s leadership. It is amazing how our true science has been corrupted. We thought our scientist would follow true scientific research and not sell their souls to big corporations. God bless Luke
Great work Nina , I’m founding a lot of resistance of this knowledge in my medical peers, family and friends. Thank you for your perseverance and commitment. You are transcending Greetings from Mexico
Ted talks allen savory how to green the desert and reverse climate change Very interesting video about using herd animals to reclaim land distroyed by mono crops. Before and afters at the end are great.
I wonder if this actually extends to animals in terms of out pets and what we feed them also (highly processed Dog rolls to our dogs, or their 'dog biscuits', Jellymeat for cats) all the stuff we give them without a care in the world could be harming them in the same manner....
Yes. Our dog (10years old) was having a lot of problems while eating the mainstream (and expensive) food. She was in such pain she could barely walk. We feared we were going to lost her so tried low carb (gave her liver, cow heart,.. With some vegetables .). Now, 8 months later, she jumps up when we are going to feed her. We can again do nice walks with her. I just started low carb diet myself. I'll see if it will have the same effect.
Thinking back to my dogs I had growing up, yes I believe the food we were feeding them eventually led to very poor quality of life for them at the end of their lives. Someday if I can have a dog again, I will feed it keto/carnivore.
In order to understand how this has happened you have to be willing to see things differently by moving yourself to a place that allows a different point of view which allows you to perceive things differently ... and you can start by asking the basic question of who benefits from people eating in a way that makes them sick?
self-righteousness. this is what self-righteousness does. I'm a vegetarian by religion/upbringing and I'm agreeing with this video. I'd like to know if what all is share here applies to colder countries only or to hot countries like India too?
I just posted this video to my physicians' office Facebook site. I told him in August, 2019 that I had been posting videos. I have not stopped. He supports the standard American diet. Maybe he will eventually watch one of them.
Are photographs available of the changing display of supermarkets shelves over several decades. I can remember as a child the supermarket display of coke equaled about 30cm of shelf space now coke has metres of coke space. I see children staring at coke as they walk past. The soda pop occupies the whole isle.
So sad that there are entire suoermarket aisles Filled with bad health garbage. The soda aisle and "snack" aisles are 2 I don't even walk down. Really, the perimeter is all you need. Sad how many overweight people have their carts Filled with stuff that won't build health but destroy it. And they are feeding this crap to their already overweight kids. Yesterday the man in front of me spent $48 and did not have one real food in his basket.
If one looks at things, like advocacy for a particular diet that obviously harms people and ignoring the evidence, as cult behavior it becomes much easier to understand.
Nowadays it's always the "consensus of settled science". So I guess we are to throw out the scientific method? In the 18th century the settled scientific consensus was that the Earth was flat. Back then if you pushed back on that consensus you would be burned at the stake.
Obesity explosion is due to several things and not much else. 1). bad dietary advice 2). decline of proper cafes where food is prepared and cooked on the premises - no frozen ready meals 3). decline of proper works canteens where food is prepared and cooked on the premises - no frozen ready meals 4). decline of family and family meal times, where everyone ate together at the same time, and after a meal no snacking allowed, get on with something useful - not eating 5). sedentary life style with increase of office style workers 6). massive rise in junk food available at supermarkets and McDonalds style food outlets
I agree, maybe as to better state the reach of point 6, industrialized food is in my mind is all junk food. Is almost imposible to find something “good” that is processed. This is killing us one byte at a time. Research if you will on vegetable oils.
Excellent work Nina. If the media wasn't captured by government and Big Corporate Interest*, we'd see these presentations on TV.🇭🇲 * Hmmmm, isn't that fascism?🤔

A ROUND OF APPLAUSE!! Good for you! Nice retort!
I’m 67 and my PCP office is amazed I take no medicines, great blood work, etc. I just smile and say, I know how to take care of myself.
Hurrah! 💪💖👏
Great response!
well done!!
Nina is one of the most intelligent and effective voices on nutrition in the world today. Thank you for helping to save my health.
You can't be serious. LOL
I have lost 12 kilos in four months, and I feel as never. Today I met an acquaintance who is obese and runs a small restaurant. She was amazed of my new looks. I am going to train her in the keto diet and we she will be offering a keto menu in her restaurant!!! Wish us luck!
Awesome! I would certainly dine at restaurants with low carb options.
How amazing! Good luck with everything! 💪💖
But as the Dr said, what about the incredible dangers of this sort of diet? I might lose weight, no longer diabetic, feel better and likely will live longer!
How is it going? 😀
5 months of fairly disciplined keto and I've dropped 40 lbs with no excercise and no hunger cravings. Any cravings I did have were easily cured with a glass of water. Amazing.
Congrats! Stay put
rubbersole This is also my experience with the Ketogenic Diet “to the T”.
I’m 15 months in now, hitting the gym and getting even more benefits & results. 😎
rubbersole-I did 2 months of nothing but salads for dinner and lost 2 lbs. I started an intermittent fast and lost 8 lbs in 4 days. For hunger pangs, I also drank water and the pangs were subdued.
you will see that in one year you will kill your kidney and heart--keto is not for long /permanent term--do a search on keto dangers
adrian avram No! My research and my personal experience with 4 years of keto and carnivore diets says otherwise. I’m MUCH healthier and am completely free of food cravings. I have been very surprised at how much better a person can be by doing pretty much the opposite of what doctors recommend.
I drive for my job and so get to listen to all the different blogs on a daily basis this one is definitely one of my top favorites now. Thank you
I was diagnosed with TD2 two years ago. Went LCHF and refused to take insulin. Complete reversal within 3 months. Dr wants to take credit, but he was completely old school. I have told him over and over. By now I suspect he is afraid to admit the truth. I worry so much about his other patients who are broke from buying insulin, and are headed for dialysis.
I am also T2D. My dr was mad when i refused to take more meds to control my disease. Both my foot went numb from the meds and after 3x visit, they ignored it. I had to changed my diet to lchf diet, exercise, and fasting. They told me to eat 5-6x a day and snack between meals which i did. My glucose spikes after every meal so a change was implimented. I did my own research and proceeded with the diet change. My dr never wanted to help me they only saw me as money rolling into the business. They wanted to keep me sick so the profit from my illness.
@@disnalee yep! If everyone is healthy they're out of business! Glad you took matters into your own hands.
TD2 also. I wenr very low carb to the point of almost carnivore and had stopped taking medications that my doctor prescribed. I logged my blood glucose every morning and watched it finally creep below 100. After 3mos I revisited my doctor and showed him my log book, told him what I was doing and he had that deer in the headlights look on his face. He started writing me refills and said I needed to take them. He didn't even care how I lowered my A1C. Most doctors (PCPs) are like him. Well propagandized by big pharma.
Ketoers, keep speaking out! The most lasting and beneficial changes in any given culture usually happen because the people at large begin to see that the TRUTH is not what the "authorities" tell us it is! Once you see the truth you can't unsee it! Spread the truth! Others of intelligence will recognize it!
Nina you’re an “animal”...😀 thanks for great vid. Keep up the good work. At age 56 needed bypass surgery. ALL my life ate low fat high carb, exercised religiously, 0 family history of heart disease. Did it by the book. Fat is NOT the problem, carbs are. It’s been 3 years now I put the statins in the garbage, eat HIGH FAT LOW CARB. I feel amazing. Thank you again for a great presentation.
how long did it take you to switch?
Manny Radzky thank you for sharing
Manny Radzky your story is my story!! I’m 70 and a 40 year vegetarian. Triple bypass surgery and in poor health until I stumbled onto Lchf. Defied my doctor. Quit statins, quit aspirin, lost 37 lbs, lowered bp and feel great. My doctor says I’m all wrong and he won’t treat me for my cholesterol risk. Baffling but I’m not going backwards. I just smile and make my next appointment 8 months out.
@@Barbaralee1205 Meat or no meat? Doesn't matter, healthier is healthier.
That BBC doctor is my GP. Even though I have lost 20kg, am no longer a type 2 diabetic, and I have received many other health improvements, she refuses to acknowledge the high fat low carb diet that I have followed is responsible. She is not a bad person, I have known her for more than 10 years. But she is so invested in the "system" that it seems that she can't see what is going on. I have also given up statins, she warned me, "Mike, I love you so I don't want to see you die!"
If you had told your doctor that you lost the weight on low fat dairy, lean meats, legumes and greens she would be happy and not so confrontational.
All doctors know grains and excessive sugar intake are fattening us. Doctors aren't stupid.
Keith Barbaro not “All Drs” know about nutrition because they are not trained in it. Low Fat is full of sugar...
Neena Me ... very excellent point!
There is growing science journal material year by year on PubMed related to these topics. I'd gather a bunch of these and e-mail them to her. Just Google any topic + "pubmed," for example "saturated fat pubmed" ... single studies are interesting datapoints, but it gets more interesting in meta-analyses, which is when they look at the results over many studies and discuss/criticize. There's a really awesome meta-analysis over saturated fat that unfortunately I don't have the link to since I'm on my laptop.
@ttlkhaoz
Yeah, that's why life expectancy has doubled in a century.
When Nina's book came out, I read it and said, "What do we need her for, we already have Gary Taubes?" ... Now, I wish we had 1000 people like Nina.
Agreed,
She's exactly what we need - a highly persuasive pitbull.
@@martinirving3824 I agree-- I read Gary TAubes 'Good Calories, Bad Calories' @ 12 years ago, which was enlightening and confirmed my suspicions that refined carbs & sugars were the enemy. But I was still missing the other half of the story, which is that healthy saturated fats were our friend. Put them together, and I have the keys to a healthier diet
yep! Sadly enough for many people it takes a lot of repetition and they still think of science as a "democracy game": as in "but the majority agrees that xyz" instead of listening to the rational and then deciding for themselves! It's true for many subjects like George Carlin said (not explicitely about Democracy for all I remember): "Remember how stupid the average person is - and then realize half of them are stupider than that!"
The scariest two pages in Nina's wonderful book, pages 276 & 277, concern the heated vegetable oils that replaced trans fats in fast food joints and the byproducts that those oils create. I promise you--you do not want that stuff in your body ever.
What a wonderful Presentation,
I can listen to Nina for Eternity...
Thank you Lady..
I've been cooking for years using Seed Oils. and sometimes when i eat fried foods, my skin would flair up with sores. Having found these lectures, I think i'll give Lard, Tallow and coconut oils a try.
Avoid soy and seed fats bc its inflammation. I use bacon grease or natural fat.
Lard, tallow and ghee or butter would be better than coconut oil.
Coconut oil 80-90% saturated fat
Cocon oil is a no. Actually all plant fat contains toxic cholesterol. If you are lucky then your body will throw out toxic cholesterol but not everyone can do it and it will create insulin resistance even if you are on low carb diet.
Eat only animal sourced fats.
Thank you Nina Teicholz for your work and the Nutrition Coalition. That is exciting news about the overhaul of the dietary guidelines. I look forward to learning more.
3:52....."enter the new thinking"...?
Actually keto has been the human diet for tens of thousands of years! The 1970's food pyramid IS the "new thinking" that's killing us!
@Sirius White I like that
As someone who works in the healthcare industry it frustrates me to no end, how we are feeding sick people. Diabetics get bread, cereal, fruit and a shot of insulin to counter all that stuff. When a diabetic cries to me how they don't want to lose another leg but they can feel it happening slowly, it breaks my heart, especially because I'm not allowed to say anything. Also people with mental health or neurological problems getting chocolate wheat baby food every single day of their lives. I wish I could make a change
American medical system is not there to help people, but to extract the maximum amount of value from them. There are cults of predatory psychopaths that have entrenched themselves in the system.
Why are you not allowed to say anything? Speak out, some nurses set up their own independent practices.
Veronika Lah
If you know that you are hurting people and making their lives worse you need a new profession. You are just as bad as a corporation taking money from people and knowingly hurting them.
just say you're not allowed to tell them what'll work because you'll l0s3 y0ur j0b
Wow, you should try to find a way to educate people 😰
Truly amazing,this is why I hate politicians
And Medicine is more political than Politics.
I have lost 35 pounds since I started my low carb high saturated natural fats diet. I lost my obsession with food. I'm finally able to fast for 24 to 48 hours without feeling starved. Although I'm in my mid fifties, I feel great and I weight as much as when I was 25 years old.
Can we produce such mass of green food in a fast and a scalable way? I am deabeties, even my doctor in Russia says that lchf is bad, even I feel the opposite. In our age u can survive just if u are smart enough. Sugar addiction is kind of religion right now. The only way to have “normal” live is LCHF for me. Doctors try to balance unbalanceable with insulin and low doses of sugar, what often leads to higher doses and to the end.
The only solution is to get rid of farm subsidies and government subsidies for NIH, AHA, ACA, etc. and let the free market work. Dietary guidelines don't work and don't need to be reformed, they need to be abolished as well as all funding for any institutions that are based upon them.
Totally agree. In a free market money shouldn't flow and prop up something that isn't returning any value but congress just keep voting themselves raises and increased benefits. I guess the only feed back loop is our vote. Somehow we the people are droping the ball. Where is the political equivalent to Nina to wake us up politically?? Maybe she could take politics on next and come up with the evidence based argurment against oligarchy and tyranny.
Yes, It’s the farm subsidies that make junk food so inexpensive. The poor especially have the poorest health because of that.
The sad part is that you don't know that the free market is the one that propped up these institutes and caused this in the first place. One of the only countries with socialized Healthcare at that time was France, they literally to these guidelines to the garbage and continued their butter and fat consumption in high quantities and still maintained lowest rate of heart problems
From Brazil:It is JUST wonderful!! Congratulations for bring the truth! Just love it! ❤️
I could listen to you all day. So beautifully researched and presented. The humor you inject is refreshing.
This just let's me know that taking my life and health in my on hands is probably the best option 🙋🏽♀️👍🏽
There was a time that you could not find lard in any my local large supermarkets near me except Walmart but now most of them are carrying it again but it says "manteca" which is "lard" in Spanish. Almost all health food stores carry it now but in "grass fed"
When I worked at McDonald's in the mid-80s the fries were still being cooked in Manteca, that's how it was labelled, but hey, this was in Texas.
I'd be wary of Manteca, it's been altered to extend its shelf life. I render my own animal fats.
Truly challenging. I'm,seeing my doctor next week. I'm sure he will parrot the experts no eggs or cheese. Thinking I'll surreptitiously leave a copy of the book in his office!
And leave some cheese. Also surreptitiously.
Every time Nina speaks I gain more respect for her. I see more and more people going low carb and seeing success with it. The public will eventually force change.
Jeremy Seay , and when we go to restaurants and grocery stores, we're asking for LCHF.
Just because you lose weight on it, that doesn't mean it's a good long term strategy for your health.
She is smart AND relatable. She fretted over this for a decade! That’s huge dedication.
@@SenorJuan2023 Losing weight is not the main focus, although that's often the first motivation behind people adopting it, and they continue because their health improves dramatically.
But the scientific research and the anecdotal evidence shows that the diet is safe and healthy, and many people adopt it *because* they want to *improve their health.*
The more I learn about this way of eating, the more I am blown away by the science behind it!
You might want to pick up this video from 4:30--5:10 minutes to hear how the scientific evidence is good for this way of eating.
Also from 13:50--27:33. 😁
Someone else you might be interested in is Dr. Matthew Phillips. He has a very interesting video on TH-cam -- "Metabolic Strategies as Therapies in Cancer and Neurodegeneration."
Some exciting findings! 😁👍👍
@@SenorJuan2023 Find me a fat person in an old age home. Obesity IS the biggest reason for the chronic diseases and early deaths. But hey, ignore facts and go with the propaganda of the money makers. You are only human after all.
I'm in Canada and my family doctor was actually really happy and supportive of me going on keto
I just love this ❤️ Keep watching all over again. Thank you Nina for all the previous work you've done ❤️❤️
14:58 "She is an animal unlike anything I have seen before." Nice.
Nina should run with that as her tag line. He meant it derisively but I think it sounds pretty cool.
mrmeach1967 yes, she’s a sleek, beautiful, powerful cheetah with an intelligent steel trap brain. He SHOULD beware! Thank you Nina for being an “animal“ role model!
Love listening to Nina!!!!❤❤❤❤💯
Eating keto and practicing fasting......is truly a REVOLUTIONARY ACT these days against the nwo!!!
@Maester Gryphon because Hogan was on steroids.
Nestle-- cradle to the grave business model... well said Nina :-)
This is a great video. Nina is great too.
I love Nina and I love this channel. Nice little treat for today. :)
Does meat eat up the earths resources? Or does bad farming practices and growing millions of acres of grains to feed cows that aren’t supposed to be eating that to begin with?? If they weren’t farming so much land to feed them improper food that acreage wouldn’t be tilled up and could be used as Natural grazing plots for cows which then may not be having as much an affect on the ecosystem??
Regenerative animal agriculture is the best solution to use marginal lands (2/3 of farm lands) to produce nutrient dense foods whilst fixing atmospheric carbon into the soils, enlarging the water table and providing habitat for other organisms too!
Absolutely love Nina, her mission, her message, her delivery, her courage. I've been on the same campaign for about 15 years and have maybe made a difference in about 2 or 3 peoples life. I can't believe I am about to criticize ANYTHING about this WONDERFUL presentation. I just don't understand how someone so bright and so dedicated and so thorough and .....I could go on in merited praise...could, while giving a lecture on the politics of foods and listing all the players involved, leave out..............the POLITICIANS, our fearless, bold, tireless, sincere, self sacrificing, noble hearted leaders. Weren't any of them paying attention when McGovern gathered all the scientist together in a political spectacle where Mary Enig and others were yellling this very same message and were completely silenced. Nina does makes several mention of unelected committee, but don't we vote and choose elected leaders to represent OUR interest over a corporate lobbyist or a dysfuntional or corrupt committee. During all the 30 to 40 to 50 year span being discussed didn't any elected officials get a single letter or phone call to draw their attention to the scientific sacrifice being carried out for political expediency? Wouldn't our elected leaders stand somewhere near, if not in front of, the academians that she feels bear the greatest burden of guilt. Personally I would put them in front of the academians just behind one other group. The entire voting public who bear the ultimate responsibility of deciding who to vote for and what to feed their children. If our leaders are not representing us and our food is making us sick who is to blame? We have given up our power to politicians, corporations, academians and doctors. With the wonderful job of talented people like Nina following in the footsteps of earlier giants like Mary Enig and Sally Fallon shedding so much light on this topic so clearly, thoroughly and convincingly, it seems we should be able to now sacrifice enough of our time, energy and money from the bottom up to effect a change, holding ourselves and our elected leaders accountable. I guess we could be more careful were we send our children to school but our responsibility their is a little less direct. If we can take enough personal responsibility about what we eat to save our food supply and health, maybe we could do the same with how we vote and save our country and freedom. Sorry if I degress a little. If Nina would have given just a glancing comment about the politicians role in the politics I really would have let that stand on its own. But, she didn't and the omission risk missing the benefit of being able to apply the lesson learned more generally and thus could limit the amount of good her work can have on the U.S. and the entire world. The effects of the food politics she near perfectly describes cannot be over stated. It has affected the life of every single american enormously, personally and financially. The epidemic of chronic illness it has spawned has take years from the life and life from the years of millions and millions (no exageration) of americans and if not turned around could very possibly cost us the democratic republic we have enjoyed for the last 200 plus years. It is a perfect example of the enormous harm that can occur when people are willing to turn more and more of their responsibility and power over to a large central government (oligarchy) or individual (tyranny) made up of people who by their very nature are to easily misled or corrupted. Truly the topic of this lecture is terribly important and stands on its own as a very worthwhile topic that will bless the lives of millions. I just couldn't resist making the connection to the full POLITICS involved, to further bless the lives of other millions from a BENEVOLENT all powerful government that can do so much more for us than just tell us how to eat. That's my contribution to Real Food Politics. I hope it adds, vs. subtracts, to the Nina's incredible lecture and work.
5:08 As Nina reveals here, some things never change.
Back in 1931, Royal Raymond Rife and Dr. Arthur Kendall, MD-PhD of Northwestern University, thought they too would be praised after publishing their findings on the ability of microorganisms to change morphology (pleomorphism) in a peer reviewable journal.
www.rifevideos.com/sciences_latest_strides_in_war_on_ills_disclosed.html
Kendall was instead crucified at the first symposium he attended on bacteriology, six months later at Johns Hopkins.
Turns out the symposium chair Dr. Thomas Rivers was an Ancel Keys type intellectual bully who supported Pasteur's opposing germ theory and so medicine was mired in that ideology going forward. I think it still is to a large extent, especially in the field of cancer research.
Rife is, of course, better known for developing a powerful, light-powered microscope (his Universal No. 3) and using it to find mortal oscillatory rates (killing radio frequencies or MORs) for various pathogens, including the one facilitating metastatic cancer.
The AMA cleverly attempted to gain control of Rife's MOR device (not the same as the microscope) through an ensuing court battle over ownership of the Beam Ray corporation, but when that failed, they proceeded to bully any doctor using an MOR device in their usual threatening manner.
As said earlier, not much has changed.
What a great presentation
Kellogg's are growing millions of acres of processed grain where grass should be feeding animals.
Thank you for the awesome consolidation of food politics, Nina!! 👏😃
The truth was very difficult to find. Keto forever!
I was afraid to try Keto for years based on what I read...until I tried it. Amazing! Losing weight effortlessly, feeling healthy, calmer. News on this needs to get out!
Keto forever except for birthday cakes, xmas dinners, and maybe the very rare croissant 🥐 haha - like once a month I have a little fancy treat and sometimes I sneak in some of the not so low carb veggies (still try to sneak under the daily 20g limit)(me weighing out some butternut) .... Because you gotta have some fun vices in your life ;)
Excellent perspective, much needed.Been keto/lchf for 16 months it is wonderful.
I believe Red Meat, Eggs, Bacon, and Bacon oil is Pure Gold. Zero added sugar, low carbs, no soy or so products, high fat, are what I believe make me healthy and improves my Testosterone levels.
Unfortunately industrially produced bacon contains dextrose (which is just a D-clucose), at least here where I buy my bacon.
Regarding testosterone levels I can second to that, 44 years old and the health indicator points upwards every morning.
I am so grateful for the opportunity to learn the truth about nutrition. It makes me so frustrated to think we have been hoodwinked for so long, and it’s only thanks to people like Nina that we have the truth. Thank you for your honesty and courage to speak out the truth 🙏
Very good work and God bless you.
Excellent! Type 1 diabetic here, recent HbA1c of 6.0% which is my best result since getting it 25 years ago. LCHF for the win!
I have been lchf for two years. Yes my weight has gone down 70+ lbs but the kicker is that I’m down to 30 units of insulin from 240 units daily. My cardiologist doesn’t like my lchf eating but my PCP of 20 years is now doing lchf.
Nina is very knowledgeable in nutrition, health, and the history of how people have been misled and lied to about food. People like her help civilization... but it’s very much an uphill (and at an almost vertical level) battle. Keep up the good work Nina!
Great presentation!
Just like they are not allowed to mention anything alternatives to 'legal' protocol for cancer, heart health, anything not sanctioned by big pharma. I met an oncologist that admitted he would not treat himself or advice family/friends to proceed with chemotherapy; he simply said it did not work. He worked at a large university hospital.
My doctor hates my cholesterol level and wants me to take a statin but she's young enough to learn from me. I'm sixty-nine years old and very healthy, and thinner than her.
This is such an excellent lecture.
As one pursues information, one discovers simple, sensible facts.
Thank you so very much. ❤️
Your information is super! Thank you.
Thank you for your struggles hang in there. I don’t eat six servings of grain in a year!
Thank you for existing 😍😍😍
thank you, Nina
The problem is not conservatism, it's veganism, pride, Pharma and environmentalism!
If cows fart too much because they're vegans, how much do vegans fart?
Nina is an inspiration. 👍🏻
8:44 I see some parallels between the pushback on a low-carb and high fat/protein diet and a certain recent political figure. Yes, the country benefited massively, but it seemed to many that a worse president and all that came with that was what we needed.
Thank you ☺️
dean ornish's diet started the downward spiral of my T1D brother's health.
Thank you for the information on this and other videos you've posted, very informative and encouraging. I've been Type 2 diabetic for a number of years now. In 2 days of dramatically reduced carbohydrate consumption, my blood sugar is down from the 9.0-11.0 range to around 6.0. Information like this helped me make changes in my life. I joked with some family members that I might have to eat a doughnut to get it back up.
May I suggest intermittent fasting? It will reverse your insulin resistance so the carbs you do eat will be utilized better. Watch Dr Fung and Dr Longo, they're terrific!
I went to a new doctor and told him that even though I was eating a Keto/Carnivore diet, I had rapidly gained weight in the last 6 months. I know it was because of extreme emotional stress. He sent me for bloodwork and when he was going over the results, he was shocked that I was metabolically fine. In the "summary" of my appointment it said that I was morbidly obese and that he discussed a healthy diet and exercise with me. (That didn't happen) They have to lie in their summaries in order stay out of trouble.
Beautifully presented.... and validates ALL of my "paranoia" about the medical and food industry's affair. I grew up in Europe eating lard on bread with scallions, and butter with cucumbers on REAL bread.... and meat...and veggies... from our garden. We have a very healthy family on the side of the family that follows this diet.
Brilliant ❤
Very good. Please keep up the good work. I lost 50 pounds on a low-carb diet and feel much better.
This woman is great! Helping me lose weight and stay healthy.
My issue used to be how to diet diet and diet without any success…. Hardly 2 years on keto and IF and now my issue is how to get as many calories as possible. At 48 I feel same as when I hit puberty… puberty was only time I felt strong and then these carb robbed me of my youth and massive muscles… now at 48 I can do 150 push-ups and can also do cycling and burn 1000+ calories in a session without the fear of collapsing with heart attack… I suspect that I had heart attack at 36 years of age when I tried to box suddenly and almost collapsed immediately I got so afraid that I never did high intensity exercise after that…
Then at 43 years of age I tried to cycling and within 5 minutes I felt like I would collapse… again same fear and I didn’t touch cycle again…
Then keto and now I have no issues raising heart rate to 191 (max so far) without getting afraid…. Can keep boxing for minutes at a stretch and I feel same energy that I felt at puberty at age 48. Skin always glows and muscles feel full of strength and mentally feel agile enough to race gravel bike to nearly 60kmph with the fear of loosing control on gravel roads.
I feel alive.
My 68 y.o. friend had his Hb1c up to 11 and blood glucose up to 310… He was on 4 different medications …. In October 2021 I’ve explained the low carb diet concept to him. Specifically, I’ve mentioned that insulin resistance is a self-defence mechanism that our cells have to use to prevent unnecessary excessive glucose uptake. Cells already have too many glucose inside that causes intracellular toxicity with advanced glycation products formation.
So, now February 2022….. his Hb1C doesn’t jump over 6.4 and highest glucose in last 2 months is 140. He only take two medications instead of 4… and he doesn’t take it everyday! Pretty much, nowadays he only uses medication 2-3 days a week when his blood glucose is over 120.
I am on low carbs/keto diet as well and I lost 76 lb., lost high blood pressure, high TG and borderline Hb1c.
Its now almost 10 months since my 69 y.o. friend is on low carb diet.... His blood glucose is within 100-105, the Hb1c is below 5.5 and.... he stopped all 4 diabetes medications, additionally he has stopped Losartan (high blood pressure pills) and he does notice that his skin looks healthier and his muscles got some growth. Despite blood glucose levels of 100-105 his endocrinologists tells my friend that he has to keep taking diabetes medications....Just in case!!!! Yes, that doctor told him to continue taking pills just in case if diabetes will come back... Great, heh?
in 1980 i was 20 i went to a hospital for 2 months went in at 126 came out at 150lbs bipolar was the cause i am now 60 ant fat with lupus i think keto is what i want to try i need to get healthy thank you shame on america for getting us fat i know i made poor choices i love sweets hope its not too late
Nina is awesome!!!
Nina, thank you for being you, so funny & truthful. It is sad that as a scientist myself & did some research at college. I was taught to be truthful about reporting the result of the experiment, unfortunately I noticed some scientists just care about getting grant money, & don't care about being not bias. You are very right that I was told at college by a nurse practitioner that I need to lose weight when she was very much overweight. I tried low fat diet, it worked, but I felt hungry every 2 hrs & it was not sustainable. Once I left college & started to work, weight was creeping back up. Now, with Keto & Intermittent fasting, I am free from feeling "hangry", & lost more than 40 lb, & keeping the weight off, & have the best health comparing to when I was on high carb diet.
When I first started low carb back in 2003 I began looking at the reasons why our traditionally accepted diets were so harshly encouraged by our governments. I saw a trend throughout history in that when the population gets hungry they tend to revolt and leaders tend to wind up 6ft under. that isn't something that people in power want so they came up with a plan. using newfound science and psychology they realised that carbs were cheap to produce, store, transport and distribute and this gave them an idea. If they could keep the bellies of their people full the people would be less likely to revolt even if they weren't actually happy. it had the wonderful side-effect of making them fatter, heavier and more lethargic and as we know if you can sedate your enemy they are not capable of really doing much damage to you. None of our governments do ANYTHING because it is in the best interests of the people. They only do things that help to keep themselves in power and if they can increase their wealth along the way, all the better. So it made perfect sense to use psychology to brainwash the general public. And who cares if a few people know the truth and try to spread it? Just label them as conspiracy theorists or kooks and the masses will turn away from them. Even if you have one of these kooks standing right in front of you showing you that what you are doing is killing you they will be ignored by everyone...except other "kooks"
Never underestimate the power of self-induced ignorance. Most people really don't want to know the truth as the truth is often uncomfortable. Why should they turn away from sugar when it tastes so good and gives them that high they are craving? Something that tastes that good could NEVER be bad for you after all. So the lemmings just keep lining up for their insulin shots and will keep searching for a better deal on their grave site because they know they'll need it soon.
The bit shown here about nestle being so perfectly vertically integrated reminds me of a series of commercials I saw on TV one night. It started with a commercial for "golden corral" and their new chocolate and butterscotch fountain dessert bars (complete with marshmallows btw). Next came a commercial for a diabetes drug to help manage your blood sugar, followed by one for a law firm and one of those "have you been hurt by this drug" lines. The commercial break then ended with one for a life insurance company telling you to give them money to help prepare for your death and take care of those you leave behind. I was POSITIVE someone in the cable company was trolling the viewers as the chance that this was a random occurrence was just too big to believe.
Interesting comment. You're correct in that people choose to be unaware, especially when it threatens their self-worth. Nina spoke about the scientist who has spent her whole career believing and researching how high fat diets lead to heart disease, now imagine when her core belief is challenged how she will react. Even in the face of solid data people will reject it to protect their self-worth. In addition, humans engage in confirmation bias to comfort themselves in the knowledge that their belief(s) are correct and rarely challenge, or scrutinize their beliefs, which makes change process so difficult to effectively engage in.
Amazing woman!
French Fries are not fried in olive oil. They're fried in vegetable oils of various kinds.
On a side note, the text on the presentation page 'status quo', was actually the logo from the British rock group Status Quo. Great presentation. Great group.
I am thankful for Nina’s leadership. It is amazing how our true science has been corrupted. We thought our scientist would follow true scientific research and not sell their souls to big corporations.
God bless
Luke
Great work Nina , I’m founding a lot of resistance of this knowledge in my medical peers, family and friends.
Thank you for your perseverance and commitment. You are transcending
Greetings from Mexico
Great work. Allah bless you for
Ted talks allen savory how to green the desert and reverse climate change Very interesting video about using herd animals to reclaim land distroyed by mono crops. Before and afters at the end are great.
I wonder if this actually extends to animals in terms of out pets and what we feed them also (highly processed Dog rolls to our dogs, or their 'dog biscuits', Jellymeat for cats) all the stuff we give them without a care in the world could be harming them in the same manner....
Yes. Our dog (10years old) was having a lot of problems while eating the mainstream (and expensive) food. She was in such pain she could barely walk. We feared we were going to lost her so tried low carb (gave her liver, cow heart,.. With some vegetables .). Now, 8 months later, she jumps up when we are going to feed her. We can again do nice walks with her. I just started low carb diet myself. I'll see if it will have the same effect.
WATCH THE DOCUMENTARY PET FOOLED
Thinking back to my dogs I had growing up, yes I believe the food we were feeding them eventually led to very poor quality of life for them at the end of their lives. Someday if I can have a dog again, I will feed it keto/carnivore.
Thanks.
Thank you Nina!! Have started the carnivore diet from keto and loving it. 33:43...is that “cardohydrate”?!!
In order to understand how this has happened you have to be willing to see things differently by moving yourself to a place that allows a different point of view which allows you to perceive things differently ... and you can start by asking the basic question of who benefits from people eating in a way that makes them sick?
self-righteousness. this is what self-righteousness does. I'm a vegetarian by religion/upbringing and I'm agreeing with this video.
I'd like to know if what all is share here applies to colder countries only or to hot countries like India too?
Nikhil VJ, this applies to human beings in general. All humans can function and be healthy on a low carb diet. The climate does not matter.
I just posted this video to my physicians' office Facebook site. I told him in August, 2019 that I had been posting videos. I have not stopped. He supports the standard American diet. Maybe he will eventually watch one of them.
Follow the money!
Are photographs available of the changing display of supermarkets shelves over several decades. I can remember as a child the supermarket display of coke equaled about 30cm of shelf space now coke has metres of coke space. I see children staring at coke as they walk past. The soda pop occupies the whole isle.
Coke and it's associated products is now 10% of ALL supermarket sales
So sad that there are entire suoermarket aisles Filled with bad health garbage. The soda aisle and "snack" aisles are 2 I don't even walk down. Really, the perimeter is all you need. Sad how many overweight people have their carts Filled with stuff that won't build health but destroy it. And they are feeding this crap to their already overweight kids. Yesterday the man in front of me spent $48 and did not have one real food in his basket.
Wish you best and luck on this long and hard journey
Your change is coming Nina, you're on the right side of the fence.
If one looks at things, like advocacy for a particular diet that obviously harms people and ignoring the evidence, as cult behavior it becomes much easier to understand.
Very entertaining and interesting.
Nowadays it's always the "consensus of settled science". So I guess we are to throw out the scientific method? In the 18th century the settled scientific consensus was that the Earth was flat. Back then if you pushed back on that consensus you would be burned at the stake.
I'm surprised they haven't locked John McDougall up by now.
12:25 the Nestle slide had me rollin’. They will help you gain weight and maybe loose it. Lol
Obesity explosion is due to several things and not much else.
1). bad dietary advice
2). decline of proper cafes where food is prepared and cooked on the premises - no frozen ready meals
3). decline of proper works canteens where food is prepared and cooked on the premises - no frozen ready meals
4). decline of family and family meal times, where everyone ate together at the same time, and after a meal no snacking allowed, get on with something useful - not eating
5). sedentary life style with increase of office style workers
6). massive rise in junk food available at supermarkets and McDonalds style food outlets
I agree, maybe as to better state the reach of point 6, industrialized food is in my mind is all junk food. Is almost imposible to find something “good” that is processed. This is killing us one byte at a time. Research if you will on vegetable oils.
GJ Nina. Keep going.
Excellent work Nina.
If the media wasn't captured by government and Big Corporate Interest*, we'd see these presentations on TV.🇭🇲
* Hmmmm, isn't that fascism?🤔
The science is settled. hmmm where else have I heard this? 🤔🤔🤔🤭
