    Oh my gosh....I have a lot to learn from you. I got a call from the Doctor's office...saying I have diabetes. No patient education, no advice, nothing to watch out for... simply nothing! So I've started myself on keto and am reading Dr. Fung.....and that is where I am at this time. Happy to have found you!

      I love people who have as much blind faith in "science" as they did about god 200 years ago and believe anything they hear as long as there's mention of science...
      This man conducted experiments on himself alone. and has explicitly said it's can only indicate what happens when HE DOES IT!
      It means nothing to YOU, because you have different GENETICS. and it does not in fact cut through any "BS" you find on the internet. because all of it is anecdotal evidence. if you wanna find the truth, go through the same experiments he did. and until then, this video is the same as any other "BS" you find on the internet. if you don't understand at least that much, the message is lost on you anyways.

    *A few quick notes:*
    - First, it seems that there are as many articles out there saying that resistant starch doesn't spike your glucose as there are articles refuting that claim. I'm not out to prove it one way or the other; I just want to see the effects on my own glucose readings.
    - Second, there are also as many articles saying that reheating doesn't affect the resistant starch as there are that say it does. I chose what I felt were the best combination of preparation methods to test this.
    - Third, I want to repeat what I said in this video: these are just *MY* results. I do not claim that this is the definitive/final word on resistant starch potatoes. It is, however, the final video I will likely be doing on potatoes.

      I'm not surprised by results. We know fat blunts blood glucose spikes.
      Everything I've read says resistance starch is a thing but it's a tiny fraction that is converted. This is where people need to read study and look at methodology not just results, are they using supplements that are 100% resistance starch, which means it probably works, or are they cooling potatoes in which case study probably says it doesn't make any difference, did they change fat intake etc, same with all studies. Amount of nutrition studies that should be thrown in the bin is shocking, vast majority have glaring methodology errors.
      However CGM, damn I won't one. Hopefully it's cheaper than the libre which is expensive.
      People massively under estimate how many carbs they can have, very few people need to go as low as 20g, most stay in ketosis at 50g, most older studies on ketosis is a 50g limit. Personally I'm still in ketosis at 70g

    Tested with potato salad made with skin-on creamer potatoes, baked, then refrigerated (only 13 net carbs per 110g. serving). I'm diabetic, type 2. It didn't spike my blood sugar, and I didn't have any noticeable problems with inflammation. I'm sure I won't be doing major changes because of this, but it is nice to know that I can make a little potato salad now and again for a change of pace.

    Thank you for suffering through this, it was very informative. I have to agree that the temporary blood sugar rise is of less concern than the inflammation. I've been on keto for 14 months and have been pain free most of that time. I love beer and have found that even having just one beer costs me about 3 days in pain. To me the pain is just not worth the pleasure of jumping off the keto diet.

    I love the extensive testing that you do... it's great! I've been a T2 diabetic since 2010 and I've learned a lot since then; while many people can tolerate some wheat and starches, I have found that I can not. I did try the reheated potato skins this week with the expected results... it spikes my blood sugar. I'm just going to say that everyone is different; I've burned up a couple meters over the years figuring out what I can and can not eat. For those that are diabetic... test, test, test.

    Thank you, Steve! It takes a lot of time and energy to do these resistant starch tests, even with a CGM, and I really appreciate it. As a T2D, I suspect I'd spike higher than you, but the inflammation aspect is enough to make me not even want to try this. Plus it's a helpful reminder to look beyond just the impact on blood glucose and ketone levels.

      @SeriousKeto  4 ปีที่แล้ว +13

      Thank you for the comment. As I was shooting this video, I started thinking a bit philosophically about keto. I think some people get too hung up on what the "rules" say about what you can or can't eat, how many carbs you're allowed, etc. I think it could be a thought-provoking topic for a future podcast.

    • @claudiaw9246
      @claudiaw9246 4 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      @@SeriousKeto I agree that'd be a good topic to tackle in a podcast. One caveat: Some people do have to be more rigid in their approach. It really all depends on what they're hoping to achieve by eating keto, and how well they can tolerate carbs. Some people have far more leeway than others.
      Case in point, my main reason for eating keto is managing my T2D without medication. Dr Richard K Bernstein recommends diabetics eat no more than 30g TOTAL carbs per day -- with limits of 6g for breakfast, 12g for lunch, and 12g for dinner. I initially thought that was crazy restrictive and did some experimenting to see if I could go higher, but quickly found out those were indeed my limits; whenever I go over, my blood sugar levels do as well. The only exception is safe sugar alcohols, like erythritol, so I don't include them in my carb count. In contrast, a meal with 20g carbs and 16g fibre will spike my blood sugar levels even though we're only talking 4g net carbs.

    Potatoes are a double whammy-nightshades are inflammation in a small package. That being said-I have had potatoes in a tiny portion (one small red) always cold first (because my family is non-keto & make stew with potatoes and save me some).
    In 18 months only about 3 times, LOADED with butter & a splash of avocado oil. I usually sacrifice & have a 10 carb day after.
    Just a treat, but having rampant inflammation and non-medicated means I have to be super careful. Have done the same with rice & sweet potatoes. (also only have -1/4 cup.)
    Total of maybe 8 treat days in 18 months.
    These are awesome videos & give us much food for thought.
    Thank you!

Bell peppers are low carb btw. Which nightshades have you found to be inflammatory and by what method are you measuring this?

      @@mybjj9643 Of course everyone is different, but I have psoriatic arthritis, and I break out in GIANT "hives" for lack of a better word. I hate peppers of any kind, so I really can't comment on that. 😂
      If I have a "serving" tomatoes or potatoes, I pay for it. I've had skin/eye/lung inflammation & much like in this video, you KNOW when it's flaring up.
      I'm avoiding biologics & corticosteroids, so keto is my main treatment right now.
      When I do eat potatoes, I'm super careful and make sure that I haven't had anything inflammatory in the days before or the days after I eat them. I also eat around 1/4 cup or less. Same for tomatoes of course and I don't eat eggplant or peppers. 😬

    Spot on analysis. I feel the same way. I've been perfectly happy using cauliflower as a rice and potato replacement. I don't need the inflamation, even if it doesn't kick me out of ketosis. There is no reason to go through the trouble of trying to create resistant starch potatoes or rice. Especially when getting frozen riced cauliflower at Costco is so dang easy! Getting it fresh and using the food processor is also super easy. I will say that I miss the idea of potato salad, which was one of my Mom's signature dishes in the summer. But its just the idea of Mom's cooking I think and not the actual dish itself. We have replicated it with cauliflower and radishes quite well and I'm happy with that going forward. Thank you for doing this. You are thoughtful and just plain awesome! :)

    Hi Steve! Just finished your video. Your results don’t lie. One thing I do want to point out, in addition to potatoes being a starchy food, it’s also a nightshade vegetable. Which increases inflammation in the body. Particularly joint pain. You can easily look up a full list of theses veggies, but in a nutshell, tomatoes potatoes peppers (all kinds)and eggplant. Looking forward to your rice resistant starch video for this very reason. White rice not being a part of the nightshade family. Finally, sushi rice as prepared traditionally contains pretty heavily sweetened rice vinegar. Love love love your approach and your execution. Thanks for all you do!

    Glad that there are unusual guys like you that do these bizarre tests - which I really appreciate. Your procedure - although not accredited science lab procedure - does seem to register a persuasive legitimate reasonable conclusion. I was shocked to find reheated resistant starch potatoes had the same spike as the original boiled. And I was shocked that butter - which I was tending to avoid putting on potatoes - had a positive blunting of the sugar spike.
    Good work. Keep it up.

      Logically that's ridiculous to think, especially when you understand how the damage is caused by glucose (glycation leading to AGEs). ALL glucose causes glycation. The body's ability to counter the damage is limited, hence why the body tries to keep the circulation blood levels low. It is the total amount per day over whatever your body's current ability to deal with that determines how much damage one day is carried over to the next.

I made my own potato salad (note:store potato salad is loaded with tons of sugar !! ) 1 cup my own potato salad > 60 minute results - only a 28 pt. glucose rise .... so the homemade potato salad did much better then white rice for me ... also , after I ate 1 cup rice I was still kinda hungry .... the 1 cup of potato salad filled me up better and felt more satisfying ...I think the " satisfying factor " is an important consideration ( just like your "how I would eat them in real life " comment . ... my fingertips feel like pincushions too because Ive also been testing a lot .

I decided this year I would eat normal Thanksgiving items after struggling with multiple failures mimicking the taste of sacred family recipes in past years. I paid dearly for that decision. It took almost a solid week for the RA symptoms to subside. NEVER AGAIN. I was very hopeful for the resistant starch but as you noted, I also like HeavenlyFan's cauliflower mash and fries.

    Lots of thoughts about this, but as far as inflammation goes, having too many, (or too much) keto dessert or bread-like subs with almond flour, can add to it, for sure. Although not resistant starch, I had a splurge one day on a gyro sandwich. Ate the whole thing after coming off a fast and blood glucose spiked to the moon. It eventually returned to baseline, but how crazy pita bread can do that to some! Thanks for sharing.

      It's probably a combination of candida yeast as well as increasing acidity. Candida loves sugars and carbs--their main food source and their waste products cause inflammation. Then acidity also causes inflammation. When I say acidity I mean primarily in the tissues and fats. The body is very good at maintaining a very narrow range of slight alkalinity of around 7.4 pH in the blood.

    Loved the video. One thing I do know for myself is that when I had a colitis flare, I ate potatoes both ways (straight hot and cooled and reheated) and it did affect my gut lining. It healed my flare in 2 weeks, so for me it definitely fed the good gut bugs. I just feel better when I incorporate resistant starch in my diet from potatoes, unmodified potato starch, green banana flour and slightly green bananas.

    Steve - Thank you! I really like your channel "Serious" Keto. If I ever got on TH-cam, (too many things going on - not going to happen!) I would call it "Casual" Keto. I much prefer a nice mix of personal testimony and science. Thanks! So, what I have learned is that once in a while (2-3 times a year) it is OK to "feast" on some carbs. I like what you said most about the side effects. My inflammation is gone too! I'm sleeping better. The list of Keto benefits go on and on! Oh!, last night I had some Califlower mashed potatoes from Costco that were as good or better than the "real" thing. My big question is "Why do we want to return to anything more than a rare exception to what got us in trouble in the first place? A second question I would like you to address is you thoughts on the over consumption of MCT oil or those who chug the Ketone enhancing drinks to get their ketone reading up.

    • @SeriousKeto
      @SeriousKeto  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      To answer your first question, I don't see these experiments as a way to say "go ahead and eat potatoes whenever you want", but rather "don't beat yourself up too hard if you consume them on rare occasions -- provided they are prepared properly."
      As for the second question, I think some people "chase the number" when they are on keto. It's not about the reading on your Keto Mojo, in my opinion, it's about how you feel.

      I was going to suggest the same thing. 15ish years ago when I was getting into low carb, I read a paper that claimed the oil in French Fries inhibited the body's ability to absorb the starch, therefore making it less glycemic. (Sorry, I dont have a citation) My point is that the relationship between fats and starches have been around for a long time...and my preference for slathering my fries with mayo may have some science behind it. 😁
