I accidentally edited out the part where I gave the full name of the diet - PKD is Paleolithic Ketogenic Diet, not to be confused with the kidney disease one!
I'm so glad you found her book! AND that you made this video to share the info. good stuff. Welcome to my world! 4 years - basically no veggies, some fruits, mostly meat. I feel great!
Me too! It's a great book. Glad you're doing so well on it, always good to hear!
Been slowly going in this direction too , find it so hard to ditch sugars ...I don't know if baking a cake is better than buying one is it better for you ? It's amazing that not many people know about unhealthy veg .
@@joemcenroe620 If you must eat cake because you enjoy it, it's always better to make your own, because you know what goes in it. just make sure you get the best quality ingredients.
@@joemcenroe620It doesn't matter if you make a cake from organic flour or buy one - it's the carbohydrates that are the issue. It's just another name for sugars really. Potatoes, rice, pasta are all starchy carbohydrates too. Bread is the very worst type of starchy carb - and it doesn't matter how wholesome they pretend it is. It causes a glucose spike in your blood.
I have cut out or down on many vegetables over the last 4 years and my health is better for it. I grew only low oxalate/ lectin vegetables but one important thing to note is that the produce I grew sat easier on my system than any I bought. I am convinced that the plants responded to the loving energy I put into my garden and were kinder to my digestion. Just an observation I thought to share.
Good luck with your journey and thank you for all you do.🎉❤
I absolutely believe that! It's also said that if you soak the seeds in your saliva before sowing the plant's first life water has your imprint in it and they will grow to be in tune with your body. Impossible to prove of course, but I do it anyway!
Also this video was published on my birthday! :D Thank you for this gift, thank you for your honesty, integrity and the example you are setting by changing your mind, taking in new information and adjusting your course of action. I have subscribed and look forward to learning more from you. I am buying a house with a big garden and am starting to think about what I can do with that, I'm totally new to gardening so it's quite daunting
I have found that the biggest win win on ditching carby veggies is the reduction in insulin and thereafter most metabolic diseases, that were chasing me and my wife.thanks for such an interesting video
I like the fact that you research things and pass this on to people, that’s so helpful. Just to add, potatoes contain solanine a toxic alkaloid and is part of the deadly nightshade family. Yes the green parts when exposed to light are very toxic but the potato tuber itself is also quite high. They are concentrated carbohydrate stores for the new plant and I certainly avoid them on a low carbohydrate diet. Thanks for all your help, I will definitely get the book you mentioned. 🤗
I got the gardening/ growing urge 3 1/2 years ago.
Started Keto 2 1/2 years ago, essentially I then wanted to grow my own salad and other greens. Managed to loose 5 stone!
Mostly I don’t eat what I grow but the sheer joy of growing & harvesting potatoes ( husband eats them ) and pumpkins is unbeatable. I have super sandy soil so it has been a journey of trying to grow the soil as much as growing plants.
I have listened to Sally Norton and many doctors about ancestral appropriate food and it has surprised me that the less veggies I eat the better I feel.
The way I look at all the things I grow is, 1 , I’m improving the ground and all the worms and bugs and birds are benefitting. 2 my mental health is also benefiting from the contact with soil. 3 when I get chickens all the stuff I will grow that the husband doesn’t eat will go to the chickens so essentially I’ll be growing eggs !
A brilliant win-win! I'd love to have chickens or ducks but my dog chases anything that moves!
@@SuccessfulgardendesignLuckily my rescue gsx terrier has chased and killed many rats and taught his pal a little ss to do the same.
I've kept chickens for over 20 years. Keeping out rats has been the biggest challenge but it has kept me busy mentally and physically. My best crop is nettles I cut some fresh every day for the girls.
That was absolutely fascinating about aboriginal people jumping instantly from their ancestral diet to a modern western diet!
Thanks Rachael I learned a lot especially about fruit. gonna keep on buying from the pound a bowl stall as the fruit is well ripe from them.
I came across (and bought) Sally Norton's book after I had already started a low-carb approach to treating prediabetes, over a year ago. I note that many others commenting on this video have come across the same key figures (Robert Lustig, Zsofia Clemens, Anthony Chaffee, Sten Ekberg and Eric Berg). I really enjoyed having an allotment, but have more recently shifted to a mainly carnivore diet, which has helped me lose weight, improve circulation and eyesight, and get rid of oedema, cold hands and feet and many other symptoms.
In short, I rarely eat fruit or starchy vegetables, and eat no ultra-processed food. The myths we grew up with regarding the alleged dangers of saturated fat and cholesterol, and the supposed benefits of fruit and vegetables seem to be unfounded.
I was initially very worried about eating too much meat and fat, but a year on, i feel better than i have for decades.
Some other resources would include Plant Paradox, a book by Dr Steve Gundry. I also keep up with Dr Eric Berg and Dr Sten Ekberg, both on TH-cam. There is a lot to be said for eating only food in season, only that which you produce, and a wide variety. You have just reminded me I am stuck in a rut eating some favorite easy to cook meals over and over
Thank you for the extra resource suggestions, the Plant Paradox sounds very interesting I will check it out! I've come across the other two, they've done some good videos.
Thank you for sharing! I’ve been struggling with stress on top of hypothyroidism and never feel quite right. I too love watching you and wish I had time for your studies as I enjoy gardening so much. I have a veggie garden that I just cleared and will do some reading first, but I’m totally into this! I can’t wait to follow and learn what else to do with my veg garden
You're very welcome, glad it's been helpful :o)
yes my friend explore, experiment and observe!!... thats how you'll know for sure!!.... I have a number of things I'd like to say in response to this video but I think I'll address it during this Saturdays livestream because many people would be interested I know as I've received many questions regarding this topic recently...
Great, it'll be good to hear your take on oxalates etc. If you've not read the Toxic Superfoods book, this interview with the author gives a good overview th-cam.com/video/gNeEiewyVBU/w-d-xo.htmlsi=XNRk_2zwBi1XJ5MR&t=123
I can't make the livestream but will watch it next week :o)
I'm staying tuned to see what you actually end up eating. Love your land idea.
I was so unwell before Christmas, I had to fast track getting carbs out of my diet. I had been a bread addict, loved potatoes, rice, pasta. Every day, I was eating mostly starchy carbs (just like the government's guidelines show) and wondering why I was getting worse.
Ditched the lot in 2 weeks, plus vegetable oils, and swore off the last very occasional temptation of sugary foods, and most of my issues are now solved.
I think I must be okay at processing oxalates, never had a problem.
I was vegan (the source of my original issues) for 4 years and vegetarian for most part of 40 years, and still won't eat a lot of meats. (Don't like the taste).
But I'm back on dairy (strictly organic) and introduced fish (bought from supermarket until I finish converting a large old well into a tank large enough to keep carp, plus a thought to keeping minnows as well either to eat or feed to the carp).
I wouldn't waste space on an ornamental lawn, enslaving myself to modern convention and wasting time and fuel mowing it.
I haven't cut my grass for 20 years (2 acres) and the wildlife that crowds into my garden now is amazing - frogs, toads, newts, lizards and ground nesting birds, not to mention bumble bee nests and butterflies. You'd be astounded at how many butterflies live on various species of grass and common lawn weeds. It's unthinkable to think of mowing them down.
I'm buying more fruit plants, whenever I see any that I can't easily propagate - apples, pears, black cherry, plums, blueberries, as well as any new breed of berry that I like the look of.
I also recommend hazelnut trees in a garden large enough to accommodate one (so long as you're not in a grey squirrel zone. I am, but have active hunters all around me and they shoot them). These new hybrid hazels load themselves with nuts, which keep well in the shell for a few months, and freeze for a couple of years at least.
I think I'm one of those people that's fine eating oxalates. Got this far in life with them and it was dropping the carbs that made the big difference.
So I will continue eating what I always have done in regard to oxalate vegetables and fruits.
But my husband only has one kidney, so I've just told him to start adapting - as he does consume a lot of almonds, almond milk and beetroot.
We'll look into that a bit more.
Great stuff! Glad ditching the carbs helped you. I've had to re-introduce some as I lost too much weight!
Everyone has a book to sell. There are books saying the opposite. Its a nightmare world of TH-cam. Good luck with the diet , hope it works.
Good for you.
Chris and I read both of the books, and have really cut down on our Oxalates. Also told my parents, and they have done the same. We still eat some potatoes, but without the skins, as I think that is where most of the oxalate is contained. We have also massively reduced our wheat intake. We only eat our own raspberries, once they have gone, we don't eat anymore. We have also ditched cereals in the morning, and now eat eggs for breakfast.
Thanks, Mark - how funny you've both read it as well - glad it's working out for you all!
Seed oils are the most dangerous. Dr Chris Knobbe.
One fact that hit me like a ton of bricks is that near 100% of animals are edible for humans... whereas for plants, it's about 4%
I'd like to also recommend Dr Natasha Campbell McBride's book Gut and Psychology Syndrome :) She's also a farmer living in the UK. Her book transformed my understanding of the purpose and uses of animals foods vs plants foods.
The table salt is just natrium-cloride, don't use it because it is drying your whole body out. Because of the industrial process we implemented to create table salt, it does not have all the minerals - like magnesium, potassium, calcium - which are present in sea salt .... I think the best type is the Celtic salt but you could also use any other types of sea salt, because those have all of the minerals which our bodies need.
Yes, don't worry, I don't have any table salt even in the house, wouldn't dream of touching that! I currently mix Celtic with Redmond's Real Salt, it's makes a really nice mix.
I stopped eating carbs, only eat green skinned veggies, no fruit. Cook in coconut oil and can eat any meat as much as I like with the fat. At least 1 litre of water a day. Well my orthriris, fibromyalgia, migraines are very rare (only when I am stressed) so much more energy and feel so much better. Had major reflux and gut problems now don't take meds for that. Realized that Potatoes and whole grain were my worst gut enemies. It's a bit like the keto diet.
That's great news, Ingrid, thanks for sharing here - I've seen so many incredible disease recovery eating this way... our ancestors knew a thing or two about how to eat! ;o)
Cows sheep and pigs perhaps.
I follow Dr Robert Lustig. Just a few pages of his book Metabolical is horrendous. The food industry cares for us as much as pharmaceuticals cough cough.
Maybe you need a chicken run in your garden. That would still count as ´growing your own food´.
Dont eat apple skin especially, there is an enzime in thè skin that eats away the apple skin with a vengence and continuse its eting frenzy until you evcuate it from the body. But some is left beind and I dont know exactly what that does.
Interesting stuff, you could still do a RegenAg project based on pasture for meat/poultry. Where does dairy fit in?
Having animals is such a big responsibility, not something I would want to do unless someone else was looking after them! Dairy on the Paleolithic Ketogenic Diet is a no - the Dr who created it says that even if people think they handle diary well actually don't in the longterm, she says there are always issues down the line eventually. I will consume some occasionally but it's not going to be a staple because I already don't handle it well!
I have been educating myself on the foods scams governments in many countries adopt. The obvious resulting illness of obesity and yet they do nothing to stop it. Sadly it is not difficult to work out why.
Oddly I have been eating far less vegetables over the last year and feel fine.
I am an organic farmer and will be facinated to grow only good vegetables after I have read this book.
I am interested as to the effect of feeding my pigs organic vegetables and whether the toxins cross over to our customers in the meat.
Do you know anything about this?
That's a really good question, I don't know the answer. Sally Norton the book author may know. I would imagine that if animals are eating their natural diet their bodies have adapted and they can process the oxalates but this is just a guess!
Ive mostly adhered to Dr Zsofia Clemens suggested diet for about 3 years now. Prior to that for most of my life it was lightly cooked veggies and chicken and fish. I personally believe we should eat as our bodies were designed hundreds of thousands of years ago.
You mentioned Migraines and i myself am at the same rough age, with previously not even having a problem with headaches. Now having them where i feel sick and dizziness. I've connected with with 2-3 days of my menstrual cycle and found menstrual Migraines. Its drop in our hormones at this age, so im looking at iodide liquid and magnesium to help. If anyone has any advice, please pipe up tho 🙏
Yes, it is in part hormonal - I have always taken a lot of magnesium which helps but don't fully solve it so there must be something else going on...
Emmmm! I was thinking kinda along this line yesterday. When I first got my 3 new hens I let them out and all 3 almost stripped the leaves of a newly growing potato plants, upon a Google search saying don't let chooks eat members of the nightshade family, 3 years later chooks all fine 🤔 yesterday I notice they have eaten all my rhubarb leaves🤔🤦♀️🤷♀️ their fine today. I'm thinking maybe veg should be eaten if you feel a bit off... Maybe!
So if your right what will happen to all the ppl eating plant based!?
I was thinking the same with my dog, even a few grapes can be fatal!
I can't comment about how vegetables affect others but when I was vegan for 3 months following Dr Gregor's science-based approach to the letter, it absolutely wrecked my health and took 18 months to recover. Vegetarian for 6 weeks took 4 months to recover from!
😮😮😮😮
This is a little off topic but you mention migraines since turning 40. I had the same and battled it for 13 years until I discovered an intolerance to tyramine. Since limiting it I have drastically reduced my migraines and changed my life for the better.
Thanks, so much! That's not something I've heard of so I will definitely look into it :o)
In the world of information overload, there are a lot of credible looking theories on
However, the hidden problem lies with man-made toxins that enter our bodies through food, water and even air we breathe and the open space we live in- that mess up our biological functions at cellular level- giving rise to health problems. One big factor is
My experience is that fermenting and culturing veg, grains and dairy make them much more digestible. Certainly ancestral factors are a major influence on what we can thrive on. I prefer the Western A Price type diet that includes meat, raw milk, eggs, fermented and cultured dairy, grains and veg. The GAPS protocol developed by Dr. Natasha Campbell-McBride is based around this. She has a farm in East Anglia, so you may want to check her out for another perspective, that may interest you. I admire your willingness to change course when presented with new evidence.
Yes, I've read the work of Weston A Price - that was one of the first places I started many years ago and even tried Dr Campbell McBride's GAPS protocol. I have re-introduced some veggies, mostly fermented so I'm about 70% meat - 100% was too much, I couldn't keep enough weight on no matter how much fat I consumed!
@@Successfulgardendesign Interesting. The implications for farming and food security, if it turns out that most people are healthier on mainly meat diets, would be significant. We need to calculate how much meat we can produce from our land using healthy methods to see if food security is possible for the population we have. If the numbers don't work out, then we have a choice of bug food or population reduction.....hmm.....I'm just reading a book by Chris Smaje called "Small Farm Future", he is optimistic that we can feed ourselves from small, mixed farms, but that's not on a mainly carnivore diet.
@@mfr58 Yes, if we went back to the more traditional way of farming it would be better on every level. If people were eating nutrient dense foods we wouldn't need nearly the amount we're producing, all the chemical sprays etc etc could go...
Only when I got to 50 did I got quite I’ll 😢. I only eat meat 10 years old. Chocolate is the biggest issue with my headache in my 40s but never put my finger on it until to late. People are still pushing and promote drinks. People will follow other 😢 take care It wasn’t for my reading and writing I would’ve probably have written that book . More and more Of my illnesses, like depression, anxiety, arthritis, cancer 😊
I have also lost interest in my allotment since going carnivore with Bug Fat Challenge
Glad it's not just me! ;o)
I think this is a diet I was designed for 😏... I've been delighted to have ramped up the meat ratio ahead of my post master-cleanse carnivorous, ravenous feasting 😅
I think you'll do very well on it judging by the amount of steak I've already witnessed you eat! ;o)@@carinnacooper9533
I could tell a wonderful difference in a few weeks of going carnivore. It is the ancestrally-correct diet. I've grown vegetables in a large garden for years but in the past two years have been carnivore thanks primarily to watching Dr. Ken Berry on TH-cam. Blood pressure down, weight down, energy up, hair and nails thick and robust. Humans have developed into omnivores so I do eat what I want just not throughout the year. Eat harvest in season. Modern transportation and distribution systems makes food available all year, providing us with excess oxalates. Experiment thru the winter with the carni diet then you'll know more about what to grow next spring. Berries are lox oxalate and perennial! Put any day's vegetable-heavy diet into an online nutrition calculator then put in an 8 oz sirloin steak and compare the two for nutrients. About the only thing missing from steak is vitamin D and calcium.
That's wonderful, really pleased you've had such good results. I've seen so many amazing transformations, it's quite incredible with some people!
Hi Rachael
I too started with migraines in my 40’s. Were you able to find a solution?
I had a radionics session which is like advanced bioresonance and a bacteria was picked up in my brain!! I was given a homeopathic remedy for it which has helped reduce them by about 70%. Mine are hormonal, so at some point they will hopefully cease! But it is a sign for me that my liver needs some support - I don't drink alcohol and eat a really clean diet but with all the chemicals we're all exposed to, cleanses (done correctly) can also help.
Thank you so much, I will look into this. I feel mine is hormonal too.
I have fibromyalgia plus all that goes with it. Guess what I am hooked on Almond butter with a passion. Oh dear!!! I really cannot eat meat but do eat fish. I am 78 but struggle every day. Cooking, more than a badic meal, is impossibke with my permanent exhaustion. Thank you for your information.
Oh gosh, so sorry to hear that Cynthia, I hope that cutting back brings you some relief. Perhaps oily fish and ghee will help you with the fat replacement from the almond butter? Also for fibromyalgia read up on magnesium, I seem to recall that can be helpful - but do check I've remembered correctly! - not medical advice ;o)
Oh and do get Sally's book as there are many foods other than almonds that are really high...
Thank you. I eat Salmon a lot although the poor things are not farmed well. Also take Mg. Zinc and D3. Stopping A.butter will be like someone giving up ciggies.😅
@@cynthiastogden7000 Have you considered tinned salmon as an alternative? I've read that has to be wild-caught because farmed salmon liquifies in the tin and can't be used! Then it would have a better level of natural fats than the farmed which may also benefit you along with less toxins than the farmed.
You might find if you can get enough good fats into your system the almond butter cravings may reduce 🤷♀Good luck!
I did hear American farmed salmon eats its own bodyweight in antibiotics before it is harvested! So wild caught or uk farmed salmon i suggest!@@cynthiastogden7000
Low Carb Down Under. Dr. Zoe Harcombe. Should we be Vegan.
Short answer No. Many other videos worth watching
