**Key Takeaways:** 1. Dietary Approach: - Tom Hopper follows a primarily animal-based diet, focusing on high-quality proteins and fats. - He often practices intermittent fasting and utilizes exogenous ketones. - His staple foods include steak, ground beef, avocados, and occasionally fruits and root vegetables. - He avoids processed foods and embraces healthy fats for sustained energy and mental clarity. 2. Carbohydrate Strategy: - Hopper cycles between low-carb/ketogenic and higher-carb phases depending on his goals and roles. - He notes better fat loss and mental clarity on a low-carb approach. - Carbohydrates are strategically used for muscle gain phases or specific performance needs. 3. Body Composition and Performance: - Hopper maintains a lean physique year-round, often below 9% body fat. - He experiences better joint health and reduced inflammation on a low-carb diet. - Strength gains are still achievable on a low-carb diet, with Hopper hitting personal bests in lifts like trap bar deadlifts. 4. Training Regimen: - Varies based on whether he's preparing for a role or in "maintenance" phase. - Incorporates a mix of traditional bodybuilding splits, metabolic conditioning (metcon), and interval weight training (IWT). - Adapts training intensity based on work schedule, especially during night shoots. - Utilizes blood flow restriction training during periods of high stress or limited recovery. 5. Recovery and Sleep: - Emphasizes the importance of proper nutrition and fasting during periods of sleep deprivation, especially during night shoots. - Uses a Whoop device to track recovery and inform training decisions. 6. Nutrient Density vs. Calorie Counting: - Prioritizes nutrient-dense foods over strict calorie counting for overall health and body composition. - Finds that focusing on nutrients leads to better satiety and energy levels. 7. Flexibility and Experimentation: - Advocates for a flexible approach to diet, recognizing that needs may change over time. - Encourages self-experimentation to find what works best for individual body types and goals. 8. Evolutionary Perspective: - Considers the ancestral human diet when making food choices, focusing on foods that would have been consistently available year-round. - Recognizes the potential benefits of seasonal eating patterns, including periodic inclusion of higher-carb foods like fruits and honey. Conclusion: Tom Hopper's approach to diet and training emphasizes flexibility, self-awareness, and a focus on whole, nutrient-dense foods. By cycling between low-carb and strategic carbohydrate intake, he maintains a lean physique while supporting his performance needs for various acting roles. His training regimen adapts to his work schedule, incorporating a mix of traditional bodybuilding, metabolic conditioning, and recovery-focused techniques. Hopper's success underscores the importance of individualization in nutrition and fitness, as well as the potential benefits of considering evolutionary patterns in modern dietary choices. This comprehensive approach allows him to maintain sub-9% body fat, build muscle, and perform at a high level both in the gym and on set.
Holy crap. I've never listened to a celeb/actor who matched so closely with my own personal dietary 'discoveries' over the years. All trial and error for me over the last 5 years to find what makes me perform and feel better. Even his anecdotal comment about oatmeal is exactly what i experience. Meat, eggs, berries, bananas, sweet potato are my desert island 5.. add fish for 6.
Getting in shape is not that difficult if you eat the right food and the right amount and exercise. Just follow these guys. Follow what other people who’ve lost weight before it’s encouraging

Such a very helpful video. Thank you both. What ketones are you purchasing? From which sources? Are they organic+ NonGMO too? Please and thank you ❤ Have a wonderful week ❣️💯🌞🌻💎
Not that i learned anything new, here.....but i believe this video to having been one of the best, this year... namely due to the diversity & pertinence of what discussed here. I want to highlight : . The objective of one's given diet and Training approach ; . trying to align more with seasonality, and the availability of certain kinds of food ; . the duality of either Keto OR High Carb, as sth in between is bound to fail ; . the not-marrying/attaching to ONE given way to approach things, which ties back to the intent & context of one's diet, and the seasonality ; Taking these things seriously, but not letting them control your physical, mental & emotional state ; Experimenting .. in order to understand what (&when) X or Y foods work, for ourselves. Thank you, and Respect..to both of you, for sharing this. I wish msgs like these would be more mainstream. Kudos from Portugal
Tom H. is bulkier this time and yeah always good looking and fit but he’s bulkier now than the last “health video” podcast I’ve watched with him on it. Love you both for health information. Keep it up! Well done! 🙏🙌👏👏❤️❤️ and yes! I do love gold kiwi! Love it. I also go for dates for sweets and I know it’s good, it’s allulose.
Great content! It's impressive how you balance reducing body fat while building muscle. I loved the variety of food staples you shared, especially the protein-rich options. However, I can imagine sticking to a strict diet can be challenging-how do you manage that during holidays or social events? Also, do you have any tips for adapting this plan into a busy lifestyle? Thanks for sharing your journey!
I don’t eat meat only beef liver! My body thrives on it, at least 3 x per week! Oh and 3-5 eggs daily and sardines and seafood for my protein! Low carb, no processed food but ocasional chocolate and ohh I forgot, I have “home made kefir” daily a glass! Berries and apples and 100% organic honey. I’m very fit, do sprint on the beach 2-3 times weekly and was told by a doctor in Spain that she has never seen a female my age as fit as me with a 11% body fat and a VO2 Max as good as mine. I feel I can out run a soccer player (my son) and in the gym I haven’t seen one woman “any age” lifting as heavy as me. Must be the beef liver and the kefir with creatine. 😜I feel like the female version of you !!!
You sound impressive , I just started doing similar to you but the difference is grass fed finished ground beef but all the other stuff is the same ; I’m seeing good results , right now I’m at 25 percent body fat but mid sept I was at 30 so it’s moving pretty fast , my goal is 12 and then see how that feels for me and take it from there
That sounds like a well-rounded and nutrient-dense approach! Beef liver, eggs, sardines, and homemade kefir-you're getting a lot of quality nutrition there. And I totally get the occasional treat like chocolate and organic honey -balance is key! If you're interested in more health tips or recipes to support your low-carb lifestyle, feel free to check out my channel. Would love to hear your thoughts on how this diet works for you! 😊💪
@20:28 well documented with the Hadza community. When honey is found they eat as much as they can. When fruit is in season up to 50% of their calories come from sugar. No restrain.
For those looking for the simplest "80-20 rule" solution to fitness nutrition: Steak and potatoes everyday for faster muscle growth - ditch the potatoes when cutting - You really can't go wrong. (80%) Build the rest of your healthy diet around that with balanced nutrition (other sources of protein, veggies, fruits, yadda yadda - you know the drill)(20%)
15:46 I will come clean and say that I have been addicted to weed, alcohol, crack and meth and I am clean now and have been for 20 yrs and I find that sugar and starch addiction is the bane of my life. The problem for me is I find happiness in life when I eat my foods that I like and that is a meat and starch meal. The issue is lately I have been getting neuropathy in my legs. I weight lift 4 times a week and do cardio same amount and I find that I get this neuropathy when I add carbs back in. Like no pain in my legs when doing ketosis past 2 weeks and had a carb meal of 2 cups white rice and a bag of frozen corn and there it is. Never been diagnosed with diabetes but I get this feeling I am headed that way and that just sucks ass! I dont want to just eat meat the rest of my life but I also do not want to get a foot amputated. So torn it sucks and nutrition just ruins my state of mind.
It's worth experimenting! You don't have to tell yourself it's forever. If you go full carnivore you might find it's satisfying enough. Maybe you can try animal based like this guy, fruits, honey.
You need to look into, slow digestion carbs, so that they don’t spike insuline, like not eating rice the same day that you make it or eating aldente pasta, like not fully cooked, likely will also aid with inflammation.
dude dont fall into these modern ascetic practices and think youre a bad person for eating food. as long as youre not incredibly gluttonous youre fine.
You are right. We dont know what we need. I think we can make a good guess because most of the foods are covered or made with chemicals or have toxic pesticides and herbicide. I really like you guys saying there are benefits and drawbacks to what ever diet you do. In my opinion sleep, food and activity level is important. Also, calorie management first above high carb, low carb, carnavor etc what ever because with calorie management comes the quantity of food you intake. If people can do that first then fine tune it to what ever form of fine tuning is better keto, low carb, carnavor etc. I love the fact you guys arent pumping one thing and promoting what works and take your time finding what dose work by giving it time and educating yourself on how your current diet qork and effecta on the body to reconize carb over load and not enough etc. So your guest finds he can manage nutrients first over calories. Awesome. Take into mind though people starting to find out what works will still over eat and get frustrated and feel they are taking 1 step forward, 2 steps back. Portion control is what im talking abouy and as they hwt use to this educatw your selves on what works to help even further. People out there do give give up start small and move forward. Heating healthy is a long hard journey that dosent have to be hard if you make it in small steps and get use to this every day till it gets easy like tieing your shoes or opening a bag of chips lol. Any habbit can be overcome one step at a time. When most people who make to many changes too fast and dont see the results can get demoralized. Even when they make big changes and weight comes of fast then hit a plateau fast this is demoralizing too because alot people fall of the wagoon. Please everyone out there change your habits till they become good habits and its easy for you with no effort and you will win the ultra marathon of a heathy mind and body. Peace
Variety is key. I consider us to be adaptable eaters. I relish a satisfying keto meal but don't consume it daily. A successful diet gradually reduces food intake at certain times of the day, month, or year. It's important to experience emptiness. Think rhythms, cycles and seasons.
"A successful diet" is one that works optimally for each individual person. Gradually reducing food intake at certain times of the day, month, or year isn't a requirement for a successful diet. It's important to remember that all people have different activity levels, body types, genetics, and several other factors, even down to things like gut health. I'll use myself as an example. I've been thin and lean all of my life, even when I wasn't regularly resistance training, biking, and getting a high daily step count. Now I'll be 40 in January. I'm currently 155 lbs and trying to put on more muscle mass. I'm extremely with an athletic build. Currently about 5% body fat with visible veins everywhere including lower abs and thighs. Extremely vascular and visible muscle striations everywhere. Here's the kicker. My average daily calorie count is typically near 4,000. I eat over 200g of protein daily, nearly 500g carbs, and right around 100g of fat average. These macros obviously will vary from day to day, ever do slightly. Particularly fats and carbs. I'm always over 200g protein daily. I eat 100 grams of steel cut over night oats mixed with blueberries and greek yogurt, every morning, and then add differing items along with it. 400-500 grams of sweet potato as part of my lunch every day, along with tuna or whatever else I'm eating with it. My point is, I eat a lot of complex carbs. Here's where it gets really crazy. My diet is mostly clean, but do treat myself and I'll eat pizza or even Chinese food sometimes. But, every single night I've been having a root beer float to treat myself and get some extra calories. Albeit, dirty calories. And I'm not taking about halo top or enlightened with diet root beer. I use regular A&W root beet with regular vanilla ice cream. Sorry for the very long comment. I just wanted to explain that not everybody is the same. I eat far more than a lot of people, and I have regular breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and am still shredded. Yes, I work hard too. But there are so many factors that make people's body's different.
@daveyboy924 Of course, my friend. I appreciate you sharing your thoughts. I'll first address you touching on electrolytes and stomach acid and things like that. I'm 100% on top of all of that and very cognizant of those things. As far as electrolytes go. I add Celtic sea salt to my water and use electrolyte mixes. I also take magnesium oxide and potassium chloride pills twice a day, morning and night. I get a blood panel/labs done twice a year, and used to have it done quarterly/4 times a year. I've gone down to twice a year starting in 2023 as everything always looked so consistently good, that quarterly was no longer necessary. One thing I didn't mention that is part of this equation, is this my entire life I had no major health problems outside of broken bones and unexpected injuries. A few years ago I unexpectedly came close to death. I woke up in the hospitals being told that I'd been on life support for a week. I discussed that I had genetically inherited a heart condition called Long QT. Essentially, my heart wasn't beating properly. I had a heart episode that launched me into grand mal seizuresheay heart doctors told me they'd need seen someone survive what I did. Everyone is either dead on arrival or dies in the hospital. By some miracle, I survived. So now, despite my otherwise exception physical shape. I do live with a pacemaker/defibrillator in my chest as a safety net, in the case I have any long QT episodes or heart rythem problems. So things like electrolytes and health are crucial for me, and I'm on top of all of it. So, if I can clarify. Are you concerned that I'm eating too much? Or do believe it may be more beneficial to eat less frequently? Lastly, I'll add that in addition to potato chloride and magnesium oxide, I also supplement with a good quality multivitamin from Ancient Nutrition, D3 "particularly duringthe winter when not biking as much and getting sun or during stretches of rain in the summer", Methylated B-12, and DHEA. I also take Propranolol, which is a beta blocker for my heart. Otherwise,
@daveyboy924 Thank you, brother! As far as set times for eating go. Although I do currently eat at 3 separate times per day, the times in which I eat those 3 meals are all at set times every day. There was a time in my life "before it was trendy" that I essentially intermittent fasted. I was never a breakfast person, rarely ate a full meal for lunch, and just ate a large dinner. I only began eating in the morning once I had the heart issues. I needed food with my vitamins and medicine. Started with only a piece of fruit, but as I increased my activity and daily calorie burn, I slowly added to my breakfast size for calories and most of all, protein. I did well in the past on essentially one meal per day and occasionally lunch snacks on some days. You definitely have me thinking about experimenting with this idea. My only concern is hitting my macros in just one meal. Especially the protein amount. And I'd probably eat this meal at night, but I guess I could play with that. As of now, my largest calorie meal is often in the morning. Would you say the timing of the one meal is personal preference? Or do you think morning, midday, or night are optimal? Also consider that I'm very active and resistance train, bike, and other physical activity. Lastly, as far as the magnesium oxide and potassium chloride I take. I should clarify that the two I take are doctor prescribed prescriptions, and extended release taken twice daily. My doctor pays close attention to my Electrolytes, as they're very important for my heart. My magnesium and potassium levels have been excellent with my customers regimen, so I don't see a need to change the forms I'm taking, but I just took a note of your suggestion and I'm going to run it by my doctor at my next appointment in mid November. Anyway, I'm sorry for the long replies. I genuinely appreciate your insight and although I feel great, you have me wondering if I could feel even better if I condensed my meals into one. Again, my only concerns are that the calories I'm currently eating in a day seem like too much to consume in one meal. Also, the time of day. If I'm having one large meal, I could possibly be fine with a calorie reduction and just focusing on protein and fats, and only carbs if i have room. Any tips or insight on these things would be greatly appreciated!
@daveyboy924 That's excellent insight and very helpful! I appreciate you taking the time to explain that! Thank you! Just to touch in the magnesium and potassium. I take Potassium Chloride Micro ER 20MEQ tabs, twice daily, and Magnetic Oxide 400MG Tab RIS twice daily. In addition to this, my multivitamin contains magnesium. If you haven't heard of Ancient Nutrition men's multivitamins, I'd recommend them. They're great and have other great stuff in them like adaptogenic herbs and cordyceps extract. Anyway, I also add Celtic sea salt to my water and get magnesium and potassium through other foods in my diet. I also ensure to replenish, especially after something like a couple hour bike ride in the summer with temperatures over 100 degrees. So I think I'm doing well with electrolytes, but i still appreciate your tips and advice. Additional information is always welcome and could be things I could incorporate in the future. As far as fats and protein. I totally agree with fats and not being scared of them. I welcome fats from good sources. I currently eat at least 200g of protein per day, but cutting that down to accommodate two large meals would probably still be fine. I'm eating well over 1 gram per pound of bodyweight at over 200g. That's mainly because I have a hard time putting on size. Although I'm not trying to be huge, I just have to work to not get too small. Anyway, I greatly appreciate your insight and I'm looking forward to giving your suggestion a try and seeing how my body responds. I'm actually looking forward to it, so thank you for pushing me to view things from a different perspective. I'm always open to trying different things to progress my overall health, gut health, and well being.
The blood glucose spike and after effects from eating carbs when you're primarily keto is crazy. This year I've been mostly following a keto/low carb diet and the energy is even all day. Every now and again I will have a cheat day, say pizza for example and a couple of hours afterwards I'm drowsy and often pass out from it. Thinking back, I used to think that was normal to be tired after a big meal.. I think most people don't question that. It's only after you've been doing keto awhile where you realise you actually feel better after eating good fats/protein not bloated and tired. This is especially noticeable with some of my work colleagues who are T2 diabetics, they stuff themselves with carbs and they look exhausted and ill after they've ate, it's sad to see..

People should be also sceptical if those influecers really do what they preach. Like for example Paul Saladino had already health problems when he was writting his book, even so he published it. After publishing it, he switched from carnivore to animal based diet.
He had health problems before he became a carnivore. His health issues started when he was a kid. Is health problems decreased with carnivore diet. Now it has even fewer health problems with the animal and fruit diet. Do you want him to wait till he's an old man to publish his results. Who else does that?
@@FloydHamel Dr. Saladino was one of the most outspoken carnivore enthusiasts. For years he ate a diet of only meat, including ample organ meats. And though it worked for a long time, eventually, he found that his electrolyte levels were off, and he was having trouble bringing them back into balance. After adding in fruit and honey, Saladino found that his sleep, electrolyte, and hormone issues resolved.
@@dczech4138I recently saw another Dr. go over Saladino’s blood work. She actually worked with him on his book. She said while his numbers still look good but really not better. It looks like his insulin resistance was ticking up.
Vegetables outside of beetroot and sweet potatoes were not mentioned.. I can’t imagine for sustained long-term health that this is that great. Sure it will get you shredded and muscular so you look healthy but not sure it is really that optimal if you are looking to keep healthy for 30 plus years.
Glycogen stores will replenish naturally without consuming carbs, it just takes longer. Also, being able to utilize fats more means you're preserving those glycogen stores so they're kind of always there unless you're doing some insane back to back workouts which isn't good for you anyway!
@@dealwolfstriked272 because the purpose of a hat is to shade you eyes from the sun. No sun indoors. Although the polite thing to do is remove your hat when indoors.
I suspect the reason why we generally feel insatiable, inflamed, and generally not as clear on carbs is because most people have systemic fungal infections, and the carbohydrates feed it. I found taking a quality humic and fulvic acid for a while helps to remedy the situation by cleansing the body of toxins that were causing the fungal infection. which when you look deeper, are manifestations of mental and emotional toxins.
Alex, can you tell me more about your experience with those humic/fulvic acid treatments to counter skin irritation or imbalance outside as well as inside, gut, etc? I suppose that some brain or mood changes might occur over time to try to fix the inflammation to the gut and the neurotransmitter axis. Thanks my friend. I'd like to try and see if any detox helps over time.
It’s funny because just be used something provides short-term energy or makes you feel good doesn’t mean it’s not toxic. Talking about alcohol and carbs sounds so similar. Yes, a few drinks gives me energy. A sense of well-being. But then it causes lethargy and inflammation. Same thing with carbs.
In the tropics, carbs are available year round. Honey, fruit, and tubers are common enough that it could have been a staple for ancestors in the region.
Can I apply this as a diabetic? I’m trying to reverse it, doctor said it was impossible but I’m sugar free for 6 weeks now and feel incredible, should I reintroduce carbs? I’ve cut carbs and sugar, intermittent fasting and 10k steps everyday. My diet is now all veg and meat only and nothing processed
I am so tired of trying to lose weight. I have lived with Type 1 diabetes for 22 years and it's always been very well controlled, but regarding fat loss the moment i start dropping a few pounds, my blood sugars crash and there is clearly and internal adjustment on a hormonal level that you can't just predict, and therefore injecting insulin becomes a shot in the dark as you can't know how your pancrease or liver will respond to the shift in weight. I always experience blood sugar crashes after cardio and it becomes counter productive. You do cardio to burn fat, and to do that, you need to do a good 20mins + of a decent intensity, but then my sugar drops and afterwards I need to consume sugar to correct. So so so so exhausted of this battle.
The clean way of eating is great and should be done, but I don't understand why ppl try to eat like primal ppl, did they live longer? I think more of the problem is the processed and gmo foods. Eathing fruits an honey are a good source of carbohydrates eating them occasionally but meat an eggs all day was a thing?
I have a question that I'm trying to figure out. If you only eat 2 meals or even 3 meals per day, then how are you able to get an adequate amount of protein per day. For example, I'm 195 lbs so I should be getting at least 195 grams of protein per day to build/sustain muscle. I am trying to figure out how to ingest this volume of protein throughout the day. Thomas asked Tom Hopper what his daily eating looks like but the question was not answered. Help.
Stress forces you out of low carb. I can learn facts, but I can't take advice most of the time because people don't account for this. But I've been steadily losing fat and maintaining or slightly increasing muscle for 3 months now.
When LMNT goes down in price for the can I will get it. I have tried in store cost wheew. But delicious salty drink no coconut for those sensitive to that.
Didn’t realize people were still taking exogenous ketones in 2024. Perhaps he can do a followup video to discuss the supplements he didn’t mention in this one.
I know it sucks but broccoli is a good source of fiber and low carb. Asparagus is okay too. I have the same problem trying to find other low carb fiber options put those are a couple.
Sub 10% is not a good place to be , this messes with your hormone profiles , 15% is far better for body composition and strength. I would say 12-15% is the best place to be, if you want to cut you can go down 10% conversely if you want to bulk slightly you can go upto 15%. I have seen Tomas go from what looks healthy to now he just looks sick. He is getting all these promos from so many companies and has good food good supplements, and yet since he has dropped down to 8% , the guy just looks not well. I think body dysmorphia might be playing a role. I maybe wrong. I hope everything is well with you Tomas , because you are a very good guy , and a great help for all those that follow and consume your content. Hope you can maybe go up a couple of % in body fat and look more healthy, if there is such a thing 👊🏽👊🏽👊🏽👊🏽
Yes, excessive protein will age you faster. Moderate protein is the way to go. A higher carb/fat to protein ratio is much better for your thyroid/metabolism/hormones etc...
Can somebody please simply define "processed" foods? It seems as if everything is processed using the mainstream definition. If its frozen, is it processed?
There is nothing wrong with good quality carbs, if you are insulin sensitive, have good gut health etc... You are feeling great on it, so it's good for you 👍🏻

@@Tony_Starks-1 yeah
Its a joke people.
Such a very helpful video. Thank you both. What ketones are you purchasing? From which sources? Are they organic+ NonGMO too? Please and thank you ❤ Have a wonderful week ❣️💯🌞🌻💎
Not that i learned anything new, here.....but i believe this video to having been one of the best, this year... namely due to the diversity & pertinence of what discussed here.
I want to highlight :
. The objective of one's given diet and Training approach ;
. trying to align more with seasonality, and the availability of certain kinds of food ;
. the duality of either Keto OR High Carb, as sth in between is bound to fail ;
. the not-marrying/attaching to ONE given way to approach things, which ties back to the intent & context of one's diet, and the seasonality ;
Taking these things seriously, but not letting them control your physical, mental & emotional state ;
Experimenting .. in order to understand what (&when) X or Y foods work, for ourselves.
Thank you, and Respect..to both of you, for sharing this.
I wish msgs like these would be more mainstream.
Kudos from Portugal
Tom H. is bulkier this time and yeah always good looking and fit but he’s bulkier now than the last “health video” podcast I’ve watched with him on it. Love you both for health information. Keep it up! Well done! 🙏🙌👏👏❤️❤️ and yes! I do love gold kiwi! Love it. I also go for dates for sweets and I know it’s good, it’s allulose.
Great interview!
Great content! It's impressive how you balance reducing body fat while building muscle. I loved the variety of food staples you shared, especially the protein-rich options. However, I can imagine sticking to a strict diet can be challenging-how do you manage that during holidays or social events? Also, do you have any tips for adapting this plan into a busy lifestyle? Thanks for sharing your journey!
2 very disciplined guys when it comes to nutrition and training 👍
What’s the secret of that discipline? 🤔
I don’t eat meat only beef liver! My body thrives on it, at least 3 x per week! Oh and 3-5 eggs daily and sardines and seafood for my protein! Low carb, no processed food but ocasional chocolate and ohh I forgot, I have “home made kefir” daily a glass! Berries and apples and 100% organic honey.
I’m very fit, do sprint on the beach 2-3 times weekly and was told by a doctor in Spain that she has never seen a female my age as fit as me with a 11% body fat and a VO2 Max as good as mine. I feel I can out run a soccer player (my son) and in the gym I haven’t seen one woman “any age” lifting as heavy as me. Must be the beef liver and the kefir with creatine. 😜I feel like the female version of you !!!
Your gonna get vitamin a poisoning if you keep up with that
You sound impressive , I just started doing similar to you but the difference is grass fed finished ground beef but all the other stuff is the same ; I’m seeing good results , right now I’m at 25 percent body fat but mid sept I was at 30 so it’s moving pretty fast , my goal is 12 and then see how that feels for me and take it from there
Beef liver ewww. 😂
@@trn8061 you either love it or hate it! 😜
That sounds like a well-rounded and nutrient-dense approach! Beef liver, eggs, sardines, and homemade kefir-you're getting a lot of quality nutrition there. And I totally get the occasional treat like chocolate and organic honey -balance is key! If you're interested in more health tips or recipes to support your low-carb lifestyle, feel free to check out my channel. Would love to hear your thoughts on how this diet works for you! 😊💪
@20:28 well documented with the Hadza community. When honey is found they eat as much as they can. When fruit is in season up to 50% of their calories come from sugar. No restrain.
For those looking for the simplest "80-20 rule" solution to fitness nutrition: Steak and potatoes everyday for faster muscle growth - ditch the potatoes when cutting - You really can't go wrong. (80%) Build the rest of your healthy diet around that with balanced nutrition (other sources of protein, veggies, fruits, yadda yadda - you know the drill)(20%)
Am I the only one that finds the hair through the ball cap so distracting? 😅 Always love your contract, Thomas! ❤
15:46 I will come clean and say that I have been addicted to weed, alcohol, crack and meth and I am clean now and have been for 20 yrs and I find that sugar and starch addiction is the bane of my life. The problem for me is I find happiness in life when I eat my foods that I like and that is a meat and starch meal. The issue is lately I have been getting neuropathy in my legs. I weight lift 4 times a week and do cardio same amount and I find that I get this neuropathy when I add carbs back in. Like no pain in my legs when doing ketosis past 2 weeks and had a carb meal of 2 cups white rice and a bag of frozen corn and there it is. Never been diagnosed with diabetes but I get this feeling I am headed that way and that just sucks ass! I dont want to just eat meat the rest of my life but I also do not want to get a foot amputated. So torn it sucks and nutrition just ruins my state of mind.
It's worth experimenting! You don't have to tell yourself it's forever. If you go full carnivore you might find it's satisfying enough. Maybe you can try animal based like this guy, fruits, honey.
You need to look into, slow digestion carbs, so that they don’t spike insuline, like not eating rice the same day that you make it or eating aldente pasta, like not fully cooked, likely will also aid with inflammation.
dude dont fall into these modern ascetic practices and think youre a bad person for eating food. as long as youre not incredibly gluttonous youre fine.
I love carbs but I noticed oatmeal day after day makes me sluggish too. I've realised I do better on a lighter breakfast.
You are right. We dont know what we need. I think we can make a good guess because most of the foods are covered or made with chemicals or have toxic pesticides and herbicide.
I really like you guys saying there are benefits and drawbacks to what ever diet you do.
In my opinion sleep, food and activity level is important.
Also, calorie management first above high carb, low carb, carnavor etc what ever because with calorie management comes the quantity of food you intake. If people can do that first then fine tune it to what ever form of fine tuning is better keto, low carb, carnavor etc.
I love the fact you guys arent pumping one thing and promoting what works and take your time finding what dose work by giving it time and educating yourself on how your current diet qork and effecta on the body to reconize carb over load and not enough etc.
So your guest finds he can manage nutrients first over calories. Awesome. Take into mind though people starting to find out what works will still over eat and get frustrated and feel they are taking 1 step forward, 2 steps back. Portion control is what im talking abouy and as they hwt use to this educatw your selves on what works to help even further.
People out there do give give up start small and move forward. Heating healthy is a long hard journey that dosent have to be hard if you make it in small steps and get use to this every day till it gets easy like tieing your shoes or opening a bag of chips lol. Any habbit can be overcome one step at a time.
When most people who make to many changes too fast and dont see the results can get demoralized. Even when they make big changes and weight comes of fast then hit a plateau fast this is demoralizing too because alot people fall of the wagoon.
Please everyone out there change your habits till they become good habits and its easy for you with no effort and you will win the ultra marathon of a heathy mind and body.
Peace
Variety is key. I consider us to be adaptable eaters. I relish a satisfying keto meal but don't consume it daily. A successful diet gradually reduces food intake at certain times of the day, month, or year. It's important to experience emptiness. Think rhythms, cycles and seasons.
"A successful diet" is one that works optimally for each individual person. Gradually reducing food intake at certain times of the day, month, or year isn't a requirement for a successful diet. It's important to remember that all people have different activity levels, body types, genetics, and several other factors, even down to things like gut health.
I'll use myself as an example. I've been thin and lean all of my life, even when I wasn't regularly resistance training, biking, and getting a high daily step count. Now I'll be 40 in January. I'm currently 155 lbs and trying to put on more muscle mass. I'm extremely with an athletic build. Currently about 5% body fat with visible veins everywhere including lower abs and thighs. Extremely vascular and visible muscle striations everywhere. Here's the kicker. My average daily calorie count is typically near 4,000. I eat over 200g of protein daily, nearly 500g carbs, and right around 100g of fat average. These macros obviously will vary from day to day, ever do slightly. Particularly fats and carbs. I'm always over 200g protein daily. I eat 100 grams of steel cut over night oats mixed with blueberries and greek yogurt, every morning, and then add differing items along with it. 400-500 grams of sweet potato as part of my lunch every day, along with tuna or whatever else I'm eating with it. My point is, I eat a lot of complex carbs.
Here's where it gets really crazy. My diet is mostly clean, but do treat myself and I'll eat pizza or even Chinese food sometimes. But, every single night I've been having a root beer float to treat myself and get some extra calories. Albeit, dirty calories. And I'm not taking about halo top or enlightened with diet root beer. I use regular A&W root beet with regular vanilla ice cream.
Sorry for the very long comment. I just wanted to explain that not everybody is the same. I eat far more than a lot of people, and I have regular breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and am still shredded. Yes, I work hard too. But there are so many factors that make people's body's different.
@daveyboy924 Of course, my friend. I appreciate you sharing your thoughts.
I'll first address you touching on electrolytes and stomach acid and things like that. I'm 100% on top of all of that and very cognizant of those things. As far as electrolytes go. I add Celtic sea salt to my water and use electrolyte mixes. I also take magnesium oxide and potassium chloride pills twice a day, morning and night. I get a blood panel/labs done twice a year, and used to have it done quarterly/4 times a year. I've gone down to twice a year starting in 2023 as everything always looked so consistently good, that quarterly was no longer necessary.
One thing I didn't mention that is part of this equation, is this my entire life I had no major health problems outside of broken bones and unexpected injuries. A few years ago I unexpectedly came close to death. I woke up in the hospitals being told that I'd been on life support for a week. I discussed that I had genetically inherited a heart condition called Long QT. Essentially, my heart wasn't beating properly. I had a heart episode that launched me into grand mal seizuresheay heart doctors told me they'd need seen someone survive what I did. Everyone is either dead on arrival or dies in the hospital. By some miracle, I survived. So now, despite my otherwise exception physical shape. I do live with a pacemaker/defibrillator in my chest as a safety net, in the case I have any long QT episodes or heart rythem problems. So things like electrolytes and health are crucial for me, and I'm on top of all of it.
So, if I can clarify. Are you concerned that I'm eating too much? Or do believe it may be more beneficial to eat less frequently?
Lastly, I'll add that in addition to potato chloride and magnesium oxide, I also supplement with a good quality multivitamin from Ancient Nutrition, D3 "particularly duringthe winter when not biking as much and getting sun or during stretches of rain in the summer", Methylated B-12, and DHEA. I also take Propranolol, which is a beta blocker for my heart. Otherwise,
@daveyboy924 Thank you, brother!
As far as set times for eating go. Although I do currently eat at 3 separate times per day, the times in which I eat those 3 meals are all at set times every day. There was a time in my life "before it was trendy" that I essentially intermittent fasted. I was never a breakfast person, rarely ate a full meal for lunch, and just ate a large dinner. I only began eating in the morning once I had the heart issues. I needed food with my vitamins and medicine. Started with only a piece of fruit, but as I increased my activity and daily calorie burn, I slowly added to my breakfast size for calories and most of all, protein. I did well in the past on essentially one meal per day and occasionally lunch snacks on some days.
You definitely have me thinking about experimenting with this idea. My only concern is hitting my macros in just one meal. Especially the protein amount. And I'd probably eat this meal at night, but I guess I could play with that. As of now, my largest calorie meal is often in the morning. Would you say the timing of the one meal is personal preference? Or do you think morning, midday, or night are optimal? Also consider that I'm very active and resistance train, bike, and other physical activity.
Lastly, as far as the magnesium oxide and potassium chloride I take. I should clarify that the two I take are doctor prescribed prescriptions, and extended release taken twice daily. My doctor pays close attention to my Electrolytes, as they're very important for my heart. My magnesium and potassium levels have been excellent with my customers regimen, so I don't see a need to change the forms I'm taking, but I just took a note of your suggestion and I'm going to run it by my doctor at my next appointment in mid November.
Anyway, I'm sorry for the long replies. I genuinely appreciate your insight and although I feel great, you have me wondering if I could feel even better if I condensed my meals into one. Again, my only concerns are that the calories I'm currently eating in a day seem like too much to consume in one meal. Also, the time of day. If I'm having one large meal, I could possibly be fine with a calorie reduction and just focusing on protein and fats, and only carbs if i have room. Any tips or insight on these things would be greatly appreciated!
@daveyboy924 That's excellent insight and very helpful! I appreciate you taking the time to explain that! Thank you!
Just to touch in the magnesium and potassium. I take Potassium Chloride Micro ER 20MEQ tabs, twice daily, and Magnetic Oxide 400MG Tab RIS twice daily. In addition to this, my multivitamin contains magnesium. If you haven't heard of Ancient Nutrition men's multivitamins, I'd recommend them. They're great and have other great stuff in them like adaptogenic herbs and cordyceps extract. Anyway, I also add Celtic sea salt to my water and get magnesium and potassium through other foods in my diet. I also ensure to replenish, especially after something like a couple hour bike ride in the summer with temperatures over 100 degrees. So I think I'm doing well with electrolytes, but i still appreciate your tips and advice. Additional information is always welcome and could be things I could incorporate in the future.
As far as fats and protein. I totally agree with fats and not being scared of them. I welcome fats from good sources. I currently eat at least 200g of protein per day, but cutting that down to accommodate two large meals would probably still be fine. I'm eating well over 1 gram per pound of bodyweight at over 200g. That's mainly because I have a hard time putting on size. Although I'm not trying to be huge, I just have to work to not get too small.
Anyway, I greatly appreciate your insight and I'm looking forward to giving your suggestion a try and seeing how my body responds. I'm actually looking forward to it, so thank you for pushing me to view things from a different perspective. I'm always open to trying different things to progress my overall health, gut health, and well being.
This content gave me exactly what I needed to learn!

Wait this is the guy from "Umbrella Academy" ???!!!!
Oh man, I tried one of those Element sodas. Nasty.
The blood glucose spike and after effects from eating carbs when you're primarily keto is crazy. This year I've been mostly following a keto/low carb diet and the energy is even all day. Every now and again I will have a cheat day, say pizza for example and a couple of hours afterwards I'm drowsy and often pass out from it.
Thinking back, I used to think that was normal to be tired after a big meal.. I think most people don't question that. It's only after you've been doing keto awhile where you realise you actually feel better after eating good fats/protein not bloated and tired. This is especially noticeable with some of my work colleagues who are T2 diabetics, they stuff themselves with carbs and they look exhausted and ill after they've ate, it's sad to see..

People should be also sceptical if those influecers really do what they preach. Like for example Paul Saladino had already health problems when he was writting his book, even so he published it. After publishing it, he switched from carnivore to animal based diet.
Paul Saladino is a fraud and liar.
He had health problems before he became a carnivore. His health issues started when he was a kid. Is health problems decreased with carnivore diet. Now it has even fewer health problems with the animal and fruit diet.
Do you want him to wait till he's an old man to publish his results. Who else does that?
@@FloydHamel Dr. Saladino was one of the most outspoken carnivore enthusiasts. For years he ate a diet of only meat, including ample organ meats. And though it worked for a long time, eventually, he found that his electrolyte levels were off, and he was having trouble bringing them back into balance.
After adding in fruit and honey, Saladino found that his sleep, electrolyte, and hormone issues resolved.
@@dczech4138I recently saw another Dr. go over Saladino’s blood work. She actually worked with him on his book. She said while his numbers still look good but really not better. It looks like his insulin resistance was ticking up.

Really awesome highlight eating based to changes seasonally. The body is probably primed to utilise this in its own seasonal detox phases
Vegetables outside of beetroot and sweet potatoes were not mentioned.. I can’t imagine for sustained long-term health that this is that great. Sure it will get you shredded and muscular so you look healthy but not sure it is really that optimal if you are looking to keep healthy for 30 plus years.
Glycogen stores will replenish naturally without consuming carbs, it just takes longer. Also, being able to utilize fats more means you're preserving those glycogen stores so they're kind of always there unless you're doing some insane back to back workouts which isn't good for you anyway!

I suspect the reason why we generally feel insatiable, inflamed, and generally not as clear on carbs is because most people have systemic fungal infections, and the carbohydrates feed it. I found taking a quality humic and fulvic acid for a while helps to remedy the situation by cleansing the body of toxins that were causing the fungal infection. which when you look deeper, are manifestations of mental and emotional toxins.
Alex, can you tell me more about your experience with those humic/fulvic acid treatments to counter skin irritation or imbalance outside as well as inside, gut, etc? I suppose that some brain or mood changes might occur over time to try to fix the inflammation to the gut and the neurotransmitter axis. Thanks my friend. I'd like to try and see if any detox helps over time.
It’s funny because just be used something provides short-term energy or makes you feel good doesn’t mean it’s not toxic. Talking about alcohol and carbs sounds so similar. Yes, a few drinks gives me energy. A sense of well-being. But then it causes lethargy and inflammation. Same thing with carbs.

I am so tired of trying to lose weight. I have lived with Type 1 diabetes for 22 years and it's always been very well controlled, but regarding fat loss the moment i start dropping a few pounds, my blood sugars crash and there is clearly and internal adjustment on a hormonal level that you can't just predict, and therefore injecting insulin becomes a shot in the dark as you can't know how your pancrease or liver will respond to the shift in weight.
I always experience blood sugar crashes after cardio and it becomes counter productive. You do cardio to burn fat, and to do that, you need to do a good 20mins + of a decent intensity, but then my sugar drops and afterwards I need to consume sugar to correct.
So so so so exhausted of this battle.
The clean way of eating is great and should be done, but I don't understand why ppl try to eat like primal ppl, did they live longer? I think more of the problem is the processed and gmo foods. Eathing fruits an honey are a good source of carbohydrates eating them occasionally but meat an eggs all day was a thing?
Does mat oil increase cholesterol just wondring?

I have a question that I'm trying to figure out. If you only eat 2 meals or even 3 meals per day, then how are you able to get an adequate amount of protein per day. For example, I'm 195 lbs so I should be getting at least 195 grams of protein per day to build/sustain muscle. I am trying to figure out how to ingest this volume of protein throughout the day. Thomas asked Tom Hopper what his daily eating looks like but the question was not answered. Help.
Stress forces you out of low carb. I can learn facts, but I can't take advice most of the time because people don't account for this. But I've been steadily losing fat and maintaining or slightly increasing muscle for 3 months now.

So if you cut out carbs all the time where do you get your fiber from?
I know it sucks but broccoli is a good source of fiber and low carb. Asparagus is okay too. I have the same problem trying to find other low carb fiber options put those are a couple.

Sub 10% is not a good place to be , this messes with your hormone profiles , 15% is far better for body composition and strength. I would say 12-15% is the best place to be, if you want to cut you can go down 10% conversely if you want to bulk slightly you can go upto 15%. I have seen Tomas go from what looks healthy to now he just looks sick. He is getting all these promos from so many companies and has good food good supplements, and yet since he has dropped down to 8% , the guy just looks not well. I think body dysmorphia might be playing a role. I maybe wrong. I hope everything is well with you Tomas , because you are a very good guy , and a great help for all those that follow and consume your content. Hope you can maybe go up a couple of % in body fat and look more healthy, if there is such a thing 👊🏽👊🏽👊🏽👊🏽

Doesn't coffee break the fast?
does low to no carbs also mean no veggies, no fruit, no beans?
No, but it's a really small amount. For Keto it's typically around 150 grams of green beans or 100 grams of apple. For low carb is 2 - 3 times that.
