Overeating Doesn't Cause Obesity? | Educational Video | Biolayne | Layne Norton

- Nutrition headlines were recently shaken up with a paper authored by several noted Low Carb Proponants (David Ludwig, Gary Taubes, etc) was published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition (Link: academic.oup.c... )
This paper was a narrative review (ie opinion piece) regarding the Carb-Insulin Model (CIM) of obesity and it's many criticisms. While this opinion piece received a lot of press, it STILL did not address the core criticisms of the CIM, nor does it change the overwhelming evidence against the CIM.
Briefly: The CIM argues that overeating is NOT what makes people fat. Rather that high glycemic carbohydrate consumption, leading to elevated insulin levels, traps fat in adipose tissue. This trapping of fat causes fuel to be less available to the rest of the body, and people overeat in response. In other words, we don't get fat because we overeat, we overeat because we get fat.
Intriguing theory (read: CONVOLUTED) but it is NOT supported by a plethora of data.
In this video I directly address Ludwig & colleagues claims regarding energy balance and their claims regarding the CIM

@3:13 - "as if we don't have hundreds of controlled trials"
Layne reminded me of the time Taubes and Attia went through 13 (or was it 17?) met ward studies and found reason to reject every one.
When Hall's study (which addressed many of their "genuinely[1] held concerns"), proved Taubes wrong as usual of course Taubes moved the goal posts.
[1] nothing about Taubes is genuine.
He's also incredibly lazy. Recycles the same stupid anecdotes over and over again. Gary dude, it's been well over a decade now, even people that are not in the low carb cult have heard this one like a dozen times already. Put some fucking effort into your grift.
Also, that 'model' is hilarious. Looks like something from Eric Berg's white board.
Leme guess.
“But dey wasn’t fat adapted”
“But that study wasn’t long enough, low carb would be just starting to kick in then”
What a breath of fresh air!
This explains why Asian cultures stay slim as traditionally , they eat less. The social etiquette of stopping to eat before your plate is empty.. I saw a wonderful Korean documentary where overweight people who admittedly were obsessed with eating large quantities of food, a tiny minority, submitted to the sparse and thoughtful monks' diet. Of course they lost weight.
Consumption of noodles and rice as a staple does not result in obesity without over eating. Portions are smaller. The satiety of many of Asian foods is based on an appreciation of delicate preparation and 'umami', satiation by great flavor instead of great volume.
You are a gift , Layne.
True. Give me a few mouthfuls of that umami rich Japanese food and I am happy. Traditional Japanese food is low fat. Shame that is changing now.
I blame the snacking culture.
Before 1980, if was rare for people to be 300 lbs or over
I did low carb for about 3 years and it helped. I did however realized that the main reason why it did was because of an overall reduction of calories not so much because of the low carb itself. Now I am, based on what I have learned and personal experience, being more conscious on food quantities and of course quality as well as my level of activity on a particular day.
This should be a series. Call it: Layne roasts stupid papers.
It took me seven months to figure this out. I stalled so bad on the keto, I didn't lose a pound for over 30 days, even going to the gym four days a week. WTF? As soon as I went CICO and added some carbs, my weight loss is back on track. Thanks for reinforcing physics! (I know this is anecdotal, but I'm not special!)
Another gorgeous evisceration. I’ll be having a cookie after my turkey chili dinner tonight. 💖
This is awesome! I saw this paper all over google news and was laughing as soon as I read the headlines. I was hoping Layne would do this video.
Me too, but I started to get worried about carbohydrates when I saw it as my ED brain started to think that maybe carbs were the problem, so I am glad that biolayne is doing a video on it.
been consistently losing 8-10 lbs a month ever since i started lifting and eating 1g protein per pound lbm spread out. glad i started watching you and similar videos. lotta bull out there to get through but this is one of my favorite series to remind me it’s really just about weighing/tracking that food deficit and getting that protein. rest falls into place pretty easily.
To me that's all comes down to people don't want to be responsible for themselves and they want to come up with any any excuse to not take responsibility for overeating and not taking care of themselves
You nailed it bro
That’s ALWAYS what it is
And I dont want to add the political dimension to this (I dont care too much about left or right, you can vote whatever you want and I am totally ok with that of course) but its true that left is trying to eliminate the importance of personal responsibility, and the example is anti-fatphobic movement. I am talking mainly about my country Spain, I dont know the situation in yours, but its a very common political line in several fields.
@@salemsaleh9577 no it’s always finding something to blame.
Should we look at populations though and see where we can offer assistance as a community? We have a lot of private industry advertising 'sometimes' foods/drinks and trying to lose weight with so many super simple junk food options. Studies have shown proximity of food vs consumption plus satiety options and private companies being so available for food we shouldnt consume in high quantity is very irresponsible
Lmao the sarcasm in this is great. 😂😂😂 It’s been a while since we’ve gotten a 30 minute debunking. Thank you Layne.
Great to see you here cream king/dough daddy
This is the gold standard of research critiquing. If only academic institutions taught us how to interpret and analyze research the way Layne does it.
My classes where I had to analyze research papers like this were such bullshit- they just instruct you to read and critique the research for yourself... without actually supplying us with examples where a research could go wrong. They still set you up to read a paper and accept what the paper was telling you instead of digging accurately to really see if the protocols were good ones.
Great stuff, Doc! I can attest to the fact that if you’ve never actually tracked your calorie intake, & live a sedentary lifestyle, it is definitely super easy to take in FAR TOO MANY calories. I think a lot of people simply aren’t aware of just how easy it is to take in a crap-ton of calories in our world today. Once you become knowledgeable of what you’re taking in, it becomes easier to cut back & thus begin to lose weight. Add in resistance training using progressive overload, & continue the process over time, you’ll be on the right track.
I have a lot of people in my social circles who love to hyper-analyse what I eat, often claiming I eat too much... Whilst they're consuming more calories. :/ I won't argue, it's pointless, but people have no clue and that's fine if you naturally maintain a healthy weight, but I think the whole reason I get hyper-analysed is because obese+ people want to scream life is unfair because of how much I consume compared to them, rather than do exactly what you say. It's so simple and it's relatively easy, if they'd just be willing to make small changes and admit so far, they've not been doing it right.
@@esmee6308 I'm there at work. I had a ham and cheese sandwich, a chocolate chip cookie with a Coke zero and a person who ate 2 sushi platters, a large mac and cheese, a whole pack of starburst and 3 bottles of cranberry juice is telling me the calories of my lunch is way too high and I'm gonna get fat. Like ..bruh, no one gets fat from a 600 calorie lunch one day.
I have to agree. The average person out there has absolutely no idea of what 200 cal worth of (insert any given food here) actually even looks like.
I agree, before my fat loss I ate normal and had 1 ben and jerry after lunch and ate cake etc. en masse. And boom I gained weight during lockdown. I didn't realize that a ben and jerries has over 1000 calories which was over half of my daily requirement back then.
Lustig had me hook, line and sinker for a while. I think some of his concepts about eating real food and staying around the exterior of the grocery store are enlightening to some extent, but, I have had so much more success on my current cut by equating my calories. I have switched to a protein focused diet (180-200g per day) and filled in my remaining calories with food that is satiating. I have dropped from 205-195 over the last 5 weeks, finally breaking through a plateau I've been stuck at for quite a while.
The best thing that Lanye preaches is to have something you can adhere to and stick with long term. Right now I can sneak a keto style ice cream which has high protein or snack on popcorn and cheese when I build it into my day. I am looking forward to the next 5 weeks on my cut and trying to break into the 180's.
@27:01 “not because of magic, not because of the insulin fairy” had me in stitches :-)
Layne, can you explain how these authors can blatantly cherry pick data without acknowledging relevant and available studies and still be considered authority’s on the obesity epidemic ?
Two things. First one: Layne mention it. They blame gov, or food industry, not individual, and in current times you can't blame anyone problems on them, because that makes you right wing nut who's not care of pain of the "little" ones.
Second one: People think that degree make you smarter than people without it, so if someone have degree and say retarded shit people will believe in it because if you don't have one so it makes you are anti science, even then when you debunk garbage information using scientific methods.
I remember going low carb years ago and it seemed to work at first. Then I found my favorite low carb food. And ate a lot of it. And the weight loss stalled/went backwards. Then when I checked how many calories were in it, well.... It was a LOT. And mostly from fat.
The best channel on TH-cam. Despite not having millions of followers. They're on their way, Layne!
I'm slowly healing from low-carb/keto dogma. Thank you. I will reconsider to include oats into my overnight jar oatmeal.
I’m so glad I found this channel. My journey started with MPMD and Greg Doucette, and now I landed up here! Thank you for the well put together presentation
Coach Greg!!! Mike Mathews is good and on the same page if you are looking for a new one to follow as well.
“Buy the friggin’ cookbook”. 🤣🤣
So much sighing! Layne, you are one of the best science communicators out there, IMO (as a science communicator myself).
You’re doing great work Layne!
I used to believe some of these claims but once I focused on calories and protein I was able to lose 174 pounds going from 402 to 228. On average I ate about 40% of total calories from carbohydrates.
That's a massive amount of weight to lose, congratulations mate.
I put my info in a calorie calculator I'm 6'4 385 said I needed to eat 2807 calories to lose 1 pound of body fat and 2307 to lose 2 pounds a week of body fat according to your weight does these Numbers look familiar to you to lose your 174 pounds successfully or did you not count calories I'm kind of confused about what path I should take to start my weight loss
Thanks. I found your presentation most helpful. I am mostly plant based and in my searching TH-cam, I am amazed by how so many people advocate the Carnivore died. It took me a long time to learn to cook and I refuse to limit my ingredients to just meat.
Very well done review (and debunking) of this paper! Methodological, researched, thorough, and easy to understand. Hats off! And thank you.
TH-cam needs to add a new icon for a 2nd thumbs up or a “super” thumbs up. Norton’s info is not only educational but entertaining. Even my wife, who was within earshot, was cracking up. Love your stuff Layne. You should have 50 million subscribers
Layne I did the same thing I ate low carb and high fat, training strength/cardio and guess what put on more weight!!!! Great video nothing wrong with good carbs and finding a balance👌
those 9 people who give thumbs down must have some supraphysiological insulin level.
Can't see the thumbs down anymore because fee fees
Excellent tear down. I read Taube’s book when it was new and what resonated with me was the description of feeling both hungry and very tired whilst eating a lot of food. So the idea of trapped energy seemed exciting. Obviously this is not how it works but I know from my own eating habits that it’s the fatigue that gets me reaching for the calorie dense foods. The answer is to take a nap I guess.
And drink some water. It’s amazing how thirst can be misinterpreted as hunger. Drink a glass of water, and if you’re still hungry, you need to eat.
Idk why but this is my favorite video of yours. Thank you for all you do. Hopefully I can meet you at a nutrition conference one day
gosh that reminds me if my brother who says he can't loose weight because of insulin (and then its cake and cereals) and i lost 65 pounds by eating pasta, bread and rice daily
thank god your around to pull this bull shit apart Layne. The Industry needs you and your work. thank you
Oh it’s from fat being trapped in fat cells and not from the fact that these foods are calorie dense and not satiating... therefore one eats more.. I hardly have any education on nutrition but..
I love the smell of keto tears in the morning! 🤠
Layne, this is the best video you've ever done. Thank you
Thank you for putting out great information. I love watching you destroy these disingenuous hacks!!!
your sarcasm and passive-aggressiveness crack me up!
I think if you take a wider perspective on the human diet over the millennia we’ve been on this planet, certain populations had access to primarily carb rich foods while others’ diets were more fat rich. Obesity was not a problem for most of human history because people have not had ease of access to calories like we do now, NOT because they were measuring their macros. lol
.... At no point did Dr. Norton say 'the only way to lose weight is to count your macros.' He DID point out that you could lose weight in low carb or low fat and that it's a matter of preference, which implies that some people's preferences may be influenced by their ancestry... which is what you're saying. The overall point of the video was to say that increased insulin isn't the cause of weight gain, but overeating is and the many ways that's proven in research. So that still goes in line with your point that people used to consume less and that was a form of weight management. He literally pointed this out in the Russian vs. Asian population- one population had less access to food and were moving more, so they had less susceptibility to gain weight. Wether you are counting your macros or not, if you're in a deficit, you can lose weight, wether it's low carb or low fat based.
I was hoping for a video from you about this. Layne, you should write up a formal refutation of this article and send it to AJCN.
Please go head to head with Dr. Jason Fung's "CICO doesn't matter" theory. I'd love to hear both sides.
Been following Layne since 2004. Absolute stud.
I agree with everything you say 99.9% . I was low carb , felt great but looks too stringy. Now I'm carb based (low fat) I'm even leaner and look much fuller and still feel great.. I used to think carbs made me hungry when in actual fact it was seed oils. As soon as I cut them out I've never felt as hungry. I'd love to know you opinion on seed oils, I think they're the biggest contributor to most of our modern diseases.
Just follow a high protein LCHF or LFHC lifestyle, control for calories and lift some weights
Love those! Thank you very much for bringing some sanity into this, using science for what it is and not misusing it for a dogmatic belief. I remember having a little back and forth over a study on facebook with you and I unsubscribed right after HAHA. Not sure what it was but looking at everything, probably been a nuance or misunderstanding. Hope more people pick up on these things because it's just sad to see how many people are confused and dogmatic and don't succeed.
Thanks man!
Love and strength,
Thomas
I would love Ted Naiman and Layne to have a Podcast together.
A 1hr+ discussion would be very interesting.
They are both on same page now
I used to believe this when I started my weight loss journey using intermittent fasting. I had to increase my fasting window more and more to eventually lose 50-60 lbs from where I started, but that was unsustainable for me. I tried keto as well, but that was also unsustainable for me. Now I eat a sustainable (for me) high carb, plant based diet, eat a good bit of fruit and starches, and am losing weight … because I’m in a calorie deficit.
It definitely does in me.
I enjoy these longer vids Layne keep em coming !
Hey how are you doing how is your back I have been doing the big three and he has been helping so much thank you very much
This is one of your best videos.
The EBM holds true, but people just suck at estimating, monitoring, and changing their energetic balance in the long-term. I wish I could overeat without getting too fat, but I've been obese before and that was no fun at all. How did I escape obesity? Hypocaloric diet (paired with exercise/more activity) for long enough, no duuuh! I now enjoy my diet model and exercise regimen. I occasionally have "ad lib" days of eating when I'm in a much larger surplus than if I am in a "lean bulking" phase, but that's fine as long as these episodes aren't too frequent or too extreme. Thanks to communicators like Layne, Mike Israetel, Jeff Nippard, et al., for helping me along the way.
Oh hey I just saw this paper and rolled my eyes
It blows my mind that fat gain/loss comes down to the very simplistic and easy to mathematically understand principle of a caloric energy balance, yet so many people try to contradict it and over complicate it. There are certain nuances and small biological variances to this principle, but if you understand the basics of calories in/calories out, you already have all the tools you need to lose weight.
Lost 90 pounds on low carb - keto, but stalled so that’s why I’m here, so you’ve successfully convinced me that the insulin model is wrong, but you’re kind of a prick about it. Maybe that’s what it took lol, anyway thanks, I now have more options
Not trying to be a prick. Just sick of the BS
I'm eating less calories than I need, guess what my weight is going down - shocking
"In this house we obey the laws of thermodynamics!"---Homer Simpson
Your hair and facial expressions remind me of Ace Ventura, Pet Detective. I enjoyed it. The content was good too.
When my doctor told me to lose weight I tried most every diet known to modern commercialism....nothing happened. I cut my portion sizes and just ate whatever I wanted and the weight started dropping right off.
I'd be interested to know When you started bodybuilding (at what age), how many hours per week you devoted to it, and what has been your major dietary style overall ( not your current one). I wonder this because it's possible that your anecdotal evidence (your state of fitness) is not applicable to generalization, but influences your position on dietary theory.
These low carb people or people that try and make dieting complicated are entertaining. But on this planet we obey the laws of thermodynamics.
Also would love for you to link some studies that show that aspartame doesn’t cause massive weight gain.
LOL I read this study the other day and my first thought was.... ohhh I can't wait until Layne tears this one apart! :-D
Layne did not disappoint!
@14.48 I'm currently on Saxenda (GLP1 agonist). It works! Best appetite suppressant ever. Only downside is it comes with some bad side effects, which you can get through if managed correctly. Also expensive.
Thanks for this video and references.
Have you ever been to Asia? Most middle class and upper class people are either obese or skinny fat. Their diabetes and CVD rate is higher than Americans. It's attributed to enormous amount of carbs and sugars they eat. So your critique on that piece of the study is not really correct.
I would love to see Layne vs Sten Ekberg in a dicussion. Both seem to know their stuff very well even tho they stand on the opposit side of eacher (not fully, but still).
Hey Doc, I had weight loss surgery, and about 50 percent of those fail. I was self-pay so I didn't want that to happen. I have lost so far 165 lbs and it's going on three years. It wasn't dieting,I eat whatever the fuck I want. It was learning to stop using food as a numb device. What the surgery did was just put a stop to the constant eating so I take so I could do the work on me. If you are over 100 pounds overweight food isn't the problem its why you are using food as a drug.
Undereating causes obesity. I should know. I've been overeating for decades and have never been obese.
Me too. I have noticed that the thinnest actresses from the 80's are now the fattest. Cindy Williams, Lauren Tewes. etc
People shouldn't restrict. But you have to abundantly on healthy foods. And don't mix carbs & fat all the time.
These videos you do are always awesome!! Thank you!
Over a long life I've studied how our body acts and reacts. Part of this has been trying reducing diets. And the more out there the ;more I wanted to try it. Probably hoping to prove it wrong. But it has never happened!! Follow the diet exactly as written and it works. No, I don't think they should be used but still they work. So, what I think is to do your homework first. Chose one that you ;can stick with and watch the weights go away! Just like exercising. If you can enjoy it, it'll work for you. Fact is, it'll be easy. Maintaining will be harder.
Another solid content piece!
I don't get how you can do this. This paper makes my hair fall out.
Love the content and the shared knowledge, but can't get past 8 minutes due to the delivery.
Love your educational videos
Great video as always.
Funny how I read that article and you just made a debunk video on it. Now I don't have to do the work explaining how it's wrong myself lol. Great stuff.
I love his reaction 😂❤️
I must make a video about this in my mother language for Spanish native speakers. May I have your permission to paraphrase your video and at the same time translate it? I have BSc in Nutrition
Thanks for this, Layne.
So the paper purporting to say energy balance doesn't matter because it matters when it matters because of insulin? Did I understand that correctly?
I love this kind of content! Thank you for making it 💓
If you understand some basic thermodynamic law, the premise that obesity is not primarily caused by overeating is a bit asinine. The energy you put in can only be converted into another form of energy, but it cannot be multiplied. You literally cannot create an excess without an excess input.
So you're using [change in weight = energy in - energy out] and assuming the direction of causality is to the left? Why?
It's like explaining that a room is full because more people entered than left, that you will now realise is asinine.
Your cells and tissues are literally built out of the atoms of the foods you eat. So yes eating drives growth. Not vice versa.
It’s actually the CIMB (the carbohydrate-insulin motte & bailey) 😉
A friend of mine who really isn't scientifically literate at all and consequently believes all sorts of nutritional nonsense has only recently discovered calorie counting. It's funny to hear him "wow, it's amazing...I didn't really get the whole cals in / cals out thing...thought it was rubbish" - he's lost nearly 3 stone so far.
It's incredible that the modern health and fitness industry has muddied the waters so much, in the minds of the public, that someone can get to their mid 50s and only now realise that if you lower your energy intake, you lose weight and if you raise it, you gain it.
At what point did people forget, or stop believing in the fundamental laws of physics...
I love this guys!
Video hasn't started yet but I have to admit the title makes me think it's Friday ;)
I am definitely not on this guy's level of higher education but I had pre diabetes 5.9 A1C it's now 5.2 because of keto, low carb and also light Resistance training and walking I took zero diabetes meds I was 243 pounds at 5 feet 11 inches I'm now 204.4 he's right that you can lose weight carbs or no if you're in a calorie deficit but and this is from personal experience and at my current weight of 204.4 if I eat 1 slice of regular pizza my blood sugar will go to almost 140 and stay high for 5 or 6 hours that's 1 piece no other carbs if I eat keto or lower carb high fiber foods I won't break 114 all day and usually I have what's called the dawn effect where I'll be at around 114 in the morning and after a low carb breakfast I'll go to about 90 give or take a couple points that's eating usually 5 whole eggs almost 0 sugar Greek yogurt sugar free pop or soda for those not in NY state 😉 and 2 scoops of naked whey about 560 calories I'll be at around 114 after breakfast if I add 2 pieces French toast sara lee 14 net carbs per 2 slices 90 calories and take away 1 scoop of protein I'll eat about the same in calories and I'll be at around 114 after breakfast if it's regular bread I'll be around 140 after breakfast if I eat any regular pasta potatoes bread sugar my blood sugar will be f....d it's mostly a no go for me and if you have pre diabetes or diabetes like a lot of americans probably in my opinion those things should be mostly a no go for them too around 40% of americans have diabetes prediabetes or insulin resistance and alot of people that are 30 years plus overweight and haven't exercised in years are probably a good chunk of people on the net looking for help and there're probably a good chunk of them in the diabetes prediabetes or insulin resistance category all I'm getting at is just saying calories in calories out don't worry about what you eat (carb protein or fat) doesn't help everyone unless you're only concerned with weight loss just my humble opinion based on my own data gathered on my self it's no study but people should probably test their blood sugar diabetes or no to see what certain foods do to there blood sugar certainly couldn't hurt I'm not attacking either I think there's alot of good info on this channel just giving my observations (also I realize I went slightly off subject was still thinking about another video he recently made)
Incorrect I am no longer fat or pre-diabetic and I'm still insulin resistant and that's because of extra weight from before I changed my diet and because of high carbs, processed junk and sugar you can think what you want I go by actual data I've accumulated on myself just giving my perspective go ahead and wolf down bread pasta sugar and so on... I'm sure you'll do fine smh 🤦 it's funny to me how worked up people get if they think you are attacking carbs I'm just stating facts based on research done on myself believe it or don't most people won't until they actually buy a blood glucose tester and start testing themselves after their favorite meals I should say I think if you were active your whole life and never over weight like a coach greg you would likely have no problems with carbs or insulin resistance although you possibly still could only way to tell for sure is to actually test how much insulin you are putting out after a high carb meal but for the average American overweight that doesn't exercise or not barely at all my opinion is don't believe anyone not low carb people or high carb people at least when it comes to blood sugar test yourself and you will see for yourself what's true and what isn't and again I'm not talking about losing weight I still believe calories in calories out I just don't think that is the only thing to consider for your health losing weight though whatever way you do it is a good start to better health
I was listening to david talk about this stuff on hubermans poddy and just knew youd have a couple of videos addressing him😂
i can't stop watching your biceps
I love people being eternally clueless about weight loss despite all the information available because its a huge and evergreen market.
Loving the 90’s schoolboy haircut Layne.
Hi Layne please review chiropractor Dr Berg’s clip on - There are no fat people in Colorado! 😅
Ok I’m dumb. So basically calories in - calories out right? Macros don’t matter?
Wouldn’t it be great if it was true though? They always want it to be a “condition” or a something that is beyond anyone’s “control” so blame can not be on the individual. Taking personal responsibility from obesity sounds like the goal to me…
People always like to compare Asian and western size but they didn’t realize although Asian eat more carbs such as rice, our “portion “ of meal is always way way smaller than the western meal. Every time I travel to western countries, my friend and I have to “share” a meal instead of finishing it myself. … smaller portion, smaller size … those who travel frequently would definitely notice the Asian meal size and western meal size differences …usually 1:2 or even 1:3….
go get em layne
Damn ,Layne went hard on this one !
I love the approach in this video.
it reminds me of a Russell Brand video, as he sarcastically jokes in between the news clips ( either reading the paper to cam or posting the quote on vid)
This has had a lot of good info.
Merits a rewatch 👍
Absolutely awesome
I never thought sugar was too much of a problem, unless you are considering all sugar, especially that from starch. Starch is important, but getting excess at any one time will pack it on faster than sugar, well in my case. So many of these fast food places have meat, fat, fat, maybe veg, starch, starch, starch, starch, starch, starch starch starch starch starch. You can't blame people for being obese when there is so much disinformation created from the sugar industries calories in calories out spiel. Like in reality a calorie surplus has 0.0000000001% to do with obesity

Being polarizing sells!
Love this haha. Would love if you could do a video in what insulin *actually* does and also how diabetes and diabulimia fit in with this. Diabulimucs will eat and then just not inject insulin and it's as if they didnt eat at all as far as what I've heard. It's also common practice for many diabetes patients to underdose their insulin to prevent weight gain. It's obviously very dangerous and fatal so dont do this but it's interesting to observe these effects
