Oh yep. From what I've heard so far, he's right on the money. But will Trump let him address the profits made by the "high-fructose corn syrup" companies? The seed oil companies. RFK jr is saying all the right things, but can he deliver? I'm not even in America but believe that Ancel Keys got us into this mess, can RFK Jr get us out?
@@BoxOfChocs Trump said he will allow RFKjr a wide latitude on the premise that he wants measurable results in 2 years. So we will know pretty quickly if he is serious about it.
@@BoxOfChocsI would posit that he’s just blowing smoke to impress. I would bet large amounts of pesos that nothing about nutrition guidelines will change. Follow the money.😐
Been High fat carnivore for a year. Feel restored all symptoms gone and I can manage the meal plan for myself and stay in therapeutic range of ketosis at all times.❤
In June I lowered carbs and increased red meat, eggs, animal fat, bacon, and butter. The severe depression dropped dramatically within a week. I couldnt believe it. It was astounding. I was waaay too thin and i am now a healthy weight and am still experiencing healing changes. And a big THANK YOU TO DR. EDE also. ❤️!!
I stopped listening to the Government when I became pre-diabetic and started to research how to reverse the condition rather than treat the symptoms. The guidelines are bulls$hit and there is no way I am going vegetarian or vegan. I may not be carnivore but there is no way I am going back to the SAD or seed oils. The state of nutritional science is a disgrace.
I always find your broadcasts uplifting and informative, Dr. Sher. Keep up the great work in trying to encourage us to become healthier, and to understand how our bodies react metabolically to what we eat.
When the US dietary system has 4000 calories available for each of us to ingest daily, most of which is sickly processed carbs and seed oil based, eating mostly meat and quality fats is the best diet for humans( The Cargill food conglomerate makes the least profit because meat and fat foods are unadulterated in their whole form)Thank you for this content, if I heeded the “plant based” BS, I wouldn’t have healed from both cancer and heart disease!
I'm glad our New American Natives are increasing at an ever larger amount. Welcome meat brother and stay strong. For every vegan we can get to eat meat we get closer to defeating the brain damage leftist vegan transgenders.
The US government began publishing food guidelines in 1980 with the release of the first edition of the Dietary Guidelines for Americans. Coincidentally that’s when the rise in obesity and type two diabetes started it.
I think that reaching out to state agricultural groups that represent beef ranchers, chicken growers etc. and getting their voices to their congressmen will help move this argument forward. Here in NC there are hundreds of beef , chicken and hog operators that will be heard, respected and considered. Grassroots efforts with producers will help this effort gain attention.
I'd like the main stream media to get out to the regenerative farms and show how much wildlife has a home on those prairies along with the cattle,sheep and goats. When livestock is moved it a manner that the native grazers were allowed to the land is alive with millions of species. Growing monocrops not only makes mass death at every level the product has made the majority of humans sick and dying at an every younger age.
Your conclusions are spot on. I think the government needs to go at least one step further than guidelines at this point. Removing tge conflict of interest problems and then developing a quality set of guidelines is obviously the initial need. Once that's in place, they need to begin the process of identifying ingredients that are problematic and getting them OUT of the supermarkets completely. This is part of what I hope Kennedy can get done in the next four years.
The Stardard American Diet (S.A.D) is devastating. Health outcomes and not industry sponsored guidelines of course make sense for a healthy society. Go forward and do good 👍
Please like my comment so that it reaches metabolic mind .. I want to ask you about commercial chiken, as I have been using it personally in the keto treatment plan for more than 6 months due to its cheap price and my current inability to have red meat in my country.. For example, in terms of calories, I choose the one with a very good percentage of fat... But what worries me is that commercial chicken is known to take pills and receive antibiotics, which increases the percentage of omega 6 in it, which exposes me to the risk of inflammation.... Is this true... And if so, does it have a significant effect on my recovery or is it good despite that? Please respond to me, as I am confused
Good questions. In a perfect world, we would all eat grass-fed beef raised in a regenerative ranch or pasture-raised chicken free from antibiotics. But we aren't in that perfect world- at least not yet. So we often say don't let perfection prevent you from success. People can get into ketosis on fast food burger patties and will likely still see the same, or similar, benefits as if they ate organic, grass-fed, etc. So if someone's goal is nutritional ketosis, most experts don't worry too much about how they get there. As for the omega 6s in chicken, I feel we need to put that into perspective. Those are more naturally occurring omega 6s (same for nuts or fish), and not the same as cooking in seed oil or eating ultra-processed food fried in seed oils. So, on the whole, it is likely going to have minimal impact. But the good news is that we can test our inflammatory markers, and follow our metabolic health markers, so we can know for sure if our nutritional intervention is having the desired effect. We hope that perspective helps!
@@metabolicmind Thank you very much for your interaction and convincing answer.. Frankly, I was skeptical even though I am in good condition after 6 months of therapeutic keto.. I will not worry much about this food source anymore and I will definitely measure inflammation to make sure of my condition.. My greetings to you
US dietary guidelines... yes, we should follow them because they have such a great track record.🙄 Whole foods all the way with an emphasis on whole foods protein and fat. And don't overlook the benefits of homemade fermented foods.
Whole foods isn't the whole answer. If a person eats whole wheat bread with organic honey he will be fat, overweight etc. What's important is the content of the food: get rid of starch and sugar first. Which means dump bakery, bread, spaghetti, pizza, potatoes, honey, organic sugar, fruit juices etc.
I've been eating a lot more meat since the beginning 2024 (now November) and feel much better for it; definitely more satiating. I had gone low carb in October 2021 to remit my diabetes. All my life I've eaten a salad/veggies with a small side of meat. These days it's the complete opposite, if I have the salad/veggies at all. I've realised that I just don't enjoy most of them.
When I read comments on nutrition from a variety of different sites, it is clear that a vast majority of people do not have a clue as to what they need to do to regain their health. The food industry, big Pharma and the department of symptoms management has done a beautiful job at confusing people such that they really don’t know what to do nor where to start? IMO Dr Robert Lustig would make a great surgeon general.
This just goes to show that it goes beyond diet - its the whole lifestyle. And it also tells us that fanatically eating only meat, or eliminating a whole macronutrient, or only eating plants is not the way forward.
I think that this guide lines has had a strong impact on people's choices. I'm in U.S. now and an American friend had only oats milk to put on my coffee and I said no thanks I prefer it black than with oats... So he offers to buy a semi-skimmed milk for me. I asked why semi skimmed? I like whole milk in my coffee, I'm not scared of fats ... And the comments usually are: how can you eat fats and be so fit and skinny???? Answer: I eat very little carbs and never refined.
Who is getting paid for supporting this diet ( in the committee that forms these guidelines)? Check the money trail and those receiving money from pharmaceutical companies and from food companies should be identified and shown how much they are receiving from these companies. The government should make these informations public for all to see!
We've already been demonizing red meat for like 30-40 years or so..... And look at a large (pun intended) portion of the population are OBESE, sick, medicine dependant, etc..... I'm 42 and my low to no carb way of eating has got me feeling and looking better than my 30s!
Exactly... red meat has been demonized for decades already, to the point where everybody already "knows" that "it'll kill you". I don't see the why behind this headline because we've already been programmed with this message for all or most of our lives already. I put on Gilmore Girls the other day, just for kicks, and what do I hear in the very first episode (from the early 2000s), from the character that owns a cafe and is serving the two "girls" their hamburger: "You know red meat will kill you." My eyes rolled so hard. 🙄🤣🥲
It seems to me that RFKjr is serious about bringing a change but junk-addict, dement and psychopatic Trolland Dumb only cares about money and his ass. So I'm not that optimistic...
I taught twice exceptional kids. I believe them to be the "canaries in the coal mine." I had a student who curled up in catatonic stance under a desk for nearly two hours until the effects of Blue Shark Koolaid wore off. It was both terrifying and highly instructive. I banned junk food from the classroom and behaviour and grades noticeably improved. I agree with you and think we need the same level of regulation as the EU. They sell junk food there, but many, many of the chemicals that are routine in our food products are banned in Europe.
I have no intentions of listening to those flawed guidelines. I am Arthritis Free and no more high blood pressure after switching to only meat and primarily RED MEAT.
I think that dietary recommendation should never be made to anyone because our microbiomes are so diverse you cannot possibly "know" What is right for each individual. Each person needs to test on themselves. Have a day where you eat nothing but meat, test all of your health markers. Are they better? Even once you believe you have found a way that works you have to retest it every so often because our microbiomes change!!! I personally have noticed that I cycle through many different dietary changes when I do this. Lately I've practically been vegetarian and I have been focusing on dairy proteins and very little meat, just before this I was heavily meat-based, years before that I was almost exclusively vegetables. I go to the doctor and I get my blood tested, and then I adjust my diet as needed. 👏
How about putting together a panel with Bret Scher, Peter Attia, Ben Bikman, Rhonda Patrick, Layne Norton, Gabrielle Lyon, Georgia Ede, Chris Palmer, Marty Makary and Casey Means. I'd trust them🤩
Yhere is no way USA will reform the committee. The same problems/issues apply to FDA, other parts of USDA etc. Business and profits are ALL that matters
For some reason they won't release a recommendation to intermittent fast, eat low carbs or ketogenic diet. But instead promote foods full in starch and sugar. Interesting why is that.
I think some real, reliable science is called for. Not the existing studies like you pointed out that are so low quality that they're unreliable. But at the same time, we shouldn't have to shill out millions and billions of dollars to do some basic investigation into which foods are the healthiest for you! Heck, I can learn that by watching videos on youtube, which already exist.
@jvlbme Oh you certainly can't just take a random TH-cam video and trust it. But if there are many testimonials and explanations for why and how it works.. that is worth something! At least to get more people to try supplementing fish oil.. we don't need to wait for the government to waste tens of millions of dollars first
I read a study which administered ketones via liposomal technology. Do you think there will be liposomal ketone esthers / bhb salts on the market someday ?
I had always been carnivore, but it was never called that , I just loved farty meat. I was thin, strong and healthy. That also was back when I trusted the medical system. Thinking I was killing myself I switched to more if a plant based diet. Smoothies, salads , nuts , beans and all that I gained a lot of weight and was ALWAYS hungry and craving! I am back to meat based , ketovore. With bouts of lion ,and I feel great! I am healing but at 57 the weight is stubborn and now with so many chiefs and few Indians, I find myself confused as to what to eat for my height, weight and age Idbe happy with 155 to 160lb . I am fairly muscular, but have severe misalignments which hinder my explosive and constant energy level. I must be careful due to over developed quads. I am seeing a corrective chiropractor and have achieved great success . I really need further support but do not know where or who to turn to.
Do you think the new administration giving RFK a major role in working on bettering America's health, that these studies of keto's impact on mental health will actually be able to be completed?
@@dennistracz I will step up to support him because he seen the truth and went against his party when they were clearly paid off by those big businesses that are profiting on our suffering and deaths. I suspect your are the troll that has to be expelled from our tribe of carnivores.
So sneaky and disappointing! They even want to put beans/legumes in favor of fish! It makes no sense and will likely lead to even greater protein undernutrition!
I’d love it if you could look into research on how keto effects the microbiome when done long term. My doctor has said it’s not a great idea from that point of view and WFPB is pushed very heavily in terms of microbiome health. I definitely feel better on lots of meat and much worse on vegan sources of protein - I’ve tried WFPB and it definitely doesn’t do me any favours health wise.
That's a great point. I think we need to realize that the microbiome is one of many effects of our diet, and what matters more is how we respond clinically. There is so much we still have to learn about what a "healthy" microbiome is! As it turns out, we have a couple of interviews with microbiome experts over the next month. So stay tuned!
Please see some of our prior content on LDL th-cam.com/video/eycUIcmZJbI/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/jybPe48bGtY/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/rEbxLe13BKw/w-d-xo.html
I think if most people saw the circumstances of meats production in the US there would be more vegetarian days in their diet plan. A doctor playing the "They can't tell me what to do" card is disappointing. Suggestions and recommendations vs mandates; That is the question.
So true, but “nutritionists” think berries are nutrient dense, even though they are mostly water. I hope DJT will let Robert Kennedy do his job. The processed food industry has a very powerful lobby. There is so much house cleaning to do.😊
Corruption is the norm, and we should always train our minds to reject information that comes from sources that have questioable origins. The best food related information that I have seen is anecdotal, which is a shame because it would be so easy to do scientic studies but they aren't done because people who are in positions of conflict would lose money if the facts of how healthy a carnivore diet actually is.
It isn't recognized as real evidence. But study everyone that has successfully carried out their keto to carnivore way of eating. It's a guaranteed positive for all markers of health with those people. The improvements and benefits are undeniable. Beef and other meats, including some fish, cannot be beat for true nutritional value.
In UK, public health claims there is a link between consumption of red meat and cancer Obtaining protein from meat such as poultry, eggs and turkey is fine. You can not expect everyone to eat the same food, certain amount of choice is necessary!
the supposed link to cancer came from a survey study (self-reporting what people had been eating over the past year) and included in the "red meat" category all junk prpcessed meats like hot dogs and salami, and did not question the intake of highly processed grains and sugars. The people who ate less processed meats generally ate less processed foods of all kinds. Fatally flawed study!!
I was just looking at a new paper yesterday comparing the muscle protein synthesis (MPS) response to 4 oz. beef patty compared to soy-based patty. 8 oz of soy-based patty was needed for an equivalent MPS response. As we age we become anabolic resistant (requiring larger protein loads to stimulate MPS which translates into higher protein requirements per pound of body weight). I’m a retired dietitian and it breaks my heart to see the ill health of my friends who have long avoided animal protein sources. It’s not a head-scratcher why there are epidemics of sarcopenia, osteopenia and osteoporosis, and (of course) insulin resistance. See: The anabolic response to a ground beef patty and soy-based meat alternative: a randomized controlled trial. Am J Clin Nutr 2024;120:1085-1092.
One of the main recent arguments purporting to link Red Meat consumption and Colon Cancer seems to be regarding the red meat carbohydrate, Neu5Gc (Sialic Acid). What are your thoughts on this and the study published 4 years ago relating to the human immune response to Neu5Gc ? (Bashir, Fezeu, Ben-Ayre, Yehuda et al)
@@metabolicmind As usual, our pals at TH-cam won't post the link I tried to post! But just search for the researchers' names I gave you. There are also other studies. They all seem to involve Rats!
Red meat isn't causing metabolic illnesses . Ultra- processed food causes such health problems .Official Guidelines are mis-leading, due to Conflict of Interests .
@jvlbme Probably True, but I'm witnessing a transformation in my wife of nearly 37 years mental symptoms. Call me crazy, but something fundamental has changed in her... Even she is realizing something inside her is changing...this is a woman that believes she has a demon in her, my son and his wife had already cast one demon out of her, so that was a win... but she hasn't been this good in...well it's been so many years I don't even know when she was happy...the boys were still in H.S.
Eat more red meat but not processed red meat. Steaks are great! Go for the best quality. Avoid processed junk food which makes you sick, sugar, seed oils, emulsifiers and food like substances as well as artificial sweeteners.
I can't believe the best the right can do for health is RFK. How embarrassing. With all the doctors out there who understand meat for nutrition, you choose THAT? He's pathetic.
I'm guessing the epidemiological studies he was referring to included the Adventist Health and Mortality studies. They compared Adventists who ate meat to those who did not. All Adventists tend to exercise and abstain from smoking and alcohol. They are taught that their bodies are a temple and eat a relatively healthy diet that either includes meat or does not. Even after adjusting for confounding variables this very high sample size study over many many years found that those Adventists who do not eat meat live longer and healthier lives.
Read that study. And I can tell u as an Adventist it’s a total crock. Most Adventist eat tons of their processed foods such as nutmeat, vegelinks, so good, etc. they also promote and use seed oils in their processing. Currently, they are filling the San hospital with heart disease, cancer, and the rest. And let me tell you, watching around during a sermon, the church is full of obese, arthritic, and anything but healthy people. It’s clear to me that the health message has been totally captured by the processed food groups. You to understand how to read studies, do the stats yourself, critique them, and not just rely on the abstract. Ps. Look at the disclosed interests in that study…Lomalinda Uni and sanatorium.
No mate. If you look at the actually measured figures, which they thankfully made available in the paper, it was the reverse in every case. You need to do the maths yourself though 😁. The more meat people ate the less all cause mortality, heart disease and cancer they got. The authors reversed that observed finding by fraudulently changing the numbers with dodgy statistics.
@@davidsparavec8996 so those reading this thread can believe a peer-reviewed study that was published in a well-respected periodical or the unsupported claims of a random person with an internet connection. I don't doubt that you are Adventist but that does not make you an expert on this topic
@@magnessskippton2509 The Dietary Guidelines for Americans (DGA) provide nutritional advice for healthy people and those at risk for chronic disease. The guidelines recommend:     Eating a variety of foods: Choose nutrient-dense foods from all food groups.     Limiting unhealthy fats: Avoid too much fat, saturated fat, and cholesterol. The DGA recommends that saturated fat make up less than 10% of your daily calories.    Limiting added sugars: Limit added sugars to less than 10% of your daily calories, starting at age 2. Avoid added sugars for children under 2.  Limiting sodium: Limit sodium to less than 2,300 milligrams per day, and even less for children under 14.  Limiting alcohol: If you drink alcohol, do so in moderation. The DGA recommends that men limit their alcohol intake to 2 drinks or less per day, and women limit theirs to 1 drink or less per day.   Eating fiber-rich carbohydrates: About three-quarters of your daily calories should come from fiber-rich carbohydrates, such as fruits, vegetables, grains, and legumes.  Drinking water: Choose water instead of milk.  The DGA also includes new dietary advice for infants and toddlers. You can find the DGA at DietaryGuidelines.gov.
Great question! Beyond that though is the impact these guidelines have on things like SNAP and the foods being served in hospitals and school cafeterias
ADA guidelines make people sicker. Helping pharma companies 😂
So you say.
And that is the way they want it to be. You scratch my back,I'll scratch yours.

I don't see the why behind this headline because we've already been programmed with this message for all or most of our lives already. I put on Gilmore Girls the other day, just for kicks, and what do I hear in the very first episode (from the early 2000s), from the character that owns a cafe and is serving the two "girls" their hamburger: "You know red meat will kill you." My eyes rolled so hard. 🙄🤣🥲
The government recommended we replace butter with trans fats, not all that long ago. Big pharme made out pretty good on that one.
I'm watching this video while eating a Ribeye that was cooked with salt and butter.
Good for you.
You won’t be laughing when your health starts to deteriorate.
@@QuanPookie who has been 'laughing"?
I dare say that we, Europeens, follow the US guidelines closely , with a sad resutlt. I stand by myself, eat redmeat and butter with relish
This may change with RFKjr in a key role dealing with food and health.
@@karinhart489 I hope he is.
Genuinely curious of the reason?@@karinhart489
My thoughts exactly... This dude is a ripped 70 yo man... He eats tons of meat ... And is very well versed on actual full body and mind health.
It seems to me that RFKjr is serious about bringing a change but junk-addict, dement and psychopatic Trolland Dumb only cares about money and his ass. So I'm not that optimistic...
It's worse than you think.
Here, here! ❤❤
I taught twice exceptional kids. I believe them to be the "canaries in the coal mine." I had a student who curled up in catatonic stance under a desk for nearly two hours until the effects of Blue Shark Koolaid wore off. It was both terrifying and highly instructive. I banned junk food from the classroom and behaviour and grades noticeably improved. I agree with you and think we need the same level of regulation as the EU. They sell junk food there, but many, many of the chemicals that are routine in our food products are banned in Europe.
What a dumb story...
Bobby will fix it!!
I have no intentions of listening to those flawed guidelines. I am Arthritis Free and no more high blood pressure after switching to only meat and primarily RED MEAT.
I vote for you Dr. Bret to be on the committee 🙂
Yes.
Please get with RFK jr. On this,, great info, 2 years carnivore..
Working on it!
Totally agree with you. I've been a virtual carnivore for half my seventy years and am much better off because of it.
I think that dietary recommendation should never be made to anyone because our microbiomes are so diverse you cannot possibly "know" What is right for each individual. Each person needs to test on themselves. Have a day where you eat nothing but meat, test all of your health markers. Are they better? Even once you believe you have found a way that works you have to retest it every so often because our microbiomes change!!! I personally have noticed that I cycle through many different dietary changes when I do this. Lately I've practically been vegetarian and I have been focusing on dairy proteins and very little meat, just before this I was heavily meat-based, years before that I was almost exclusively vegetables. I go to the doctor and I get my blood tested, and then I adjust my diet as needed. 👏
It sounds like you have it dialed in! Not an easy thing to do but definitely worth it
How about putting together a panel with Bret Scher, Peter Attia, Ben Bikman, Rhonda Patrick, Layne Norton, Gabrielle Lyon, Georgia Ede, Chris Palmer, Marty Makary and Casey Means. I'd trust them🤩
😂
I am counting on Team Trump to rectify the USDA!
Agree 100% with everything said here!
Yhere is no way USA will reform the committee. The same problems/issues apply to FDA, other parts of USDA etc. Business and profits are ALL that matters
For some reason they won't release a recommendation to intermittent fast, eat low carbs or ketogenic diet. But instead promote foods full in starch and sugar. Interesting why is that.
I think some real, reliable science is called for. Not the existing studies like you pointed out that are so low quality that they're unreliable. But at the same time, we shouldn't have to shill out millions and billions of dollars to do some basic investigation into which foods are the healthiest for you! Heck, I can learn that by watching videos on youtube, which already exist.
"real studies confirming the made up stuff on youtube is needed" 🤣🤣🤣
@jvlbme Oh you certainly can't just take a random TH-cam video and trust it. But if there are many testimonials and explanations for why and how it works.. that is worth something! At least to get more people to try supplementing fish oil.. we don't need to wait for the government to waste tens of millions of dollars first
@@H4KnSL4K You don't think the governement is aware... of... fish... ... oil? 🤦
Do the opposite, my health has never been better since eating more beef and eggs
I read a study which administered ketones via liposomal technology. Do you think there will be liposomal ketone esthers / bhb salts on the market someday ?
Its certainly possible!
@ we need more research on this 😩
Thank you 😊
I had always been carnivore, but it was never called that , I just loved farty meat. I was thin, strong and healthy.
That also was back when I trusted the medical system. Thinking I was killing myself I switched to more if a plant based diet. Smoothies, salads , nuts , beans and all that
I gained a lot of weight and was ALWAYS hungry and craving!
I am back to meat based , ketovore. With bouts of lion ,and I feel great! I am healing but at 57 the weight is stubborn and now with so many chiefs and few Indians, I find myself confused as to what to eat for my height, weight and age
Idbe happy with 155 to 160lb .
I am fairly muscular, but have severe misalignments which hinder my explosive and constant energy level. I must be careful due to over developed quads.
I am seeing a corrective chiropractor and have achieved great success .
I really need further support but do not know where or who to turn to.
Well said!
Do you think the new administration giving RFK a major role in working on bettering America's health, that these studies of keto's impact on mental health will actually be able to be completed?
Seems unlikely given that big companies and lobbyists can easily parry the rantings of a kook like RFK Jr.
Took a long time to screw it up and the biggest and best change starts with myself. Low carb < 30 gm a day 25 out of thirty days for 2 years
@@dennistracz lol, shark's got veins
I certainly hope so
@@dennistracz I will step up to support him because he seen the truth and went against his party when they were clearly paid off by those big businesses that are profiting on our suffering and deaths. I suspect your are the troll that has to be expelled from our tribe of carnivores.
So sneaky and disappointing! They even want to put beans/legumes in favor of fish! It makes no sense and will likely lead to even greater protein undernutrition!
And more wind too!
I’d love it if you could look into research on how keto effects the microbiome when done long term. My doctor has said it’s not a great idea from that point of view and WFPB is pushed very heavily in terms of microbiome health. I definitely feel better on lots of meat and much worse on vegan sources of protein - I’ve tried WFPB and it definitely doesn’t do me any favours health wise.
That's a great point. I think we need to realize that the microbiome is one of many effects of our diet, and what matters more is how we respond clinically. There is so much we still have to learn about what a "healthy" microbiome is! As it turns out, we have a couple of interviews with microbiome experts over the next month. So stay tuned!
@ fantastic! Thanks so much for taking the time to reply and for all the amazing work you’re doing.
Seems like RFK Jr is on his way to clean up the place. You could have an interview with him.
I hope Mr. Kennedy changes that
I believe that the American dietary guidelines are followed by the U.K.

I think if most people saw the circumstances of meats production in the US there would be more vegetarian days in their diet plan.
A doctor playing the "They can't tell me what to do" card is disappointing. Suggestions and recommendations vs mandates; That is the question.
So true, but “nutritionists” think berries are nutrient dense, even though they are mostly water. I hope DJT will let Robert Kennedy do his job. The processed food industry has a very powerful lobby. There is so much house cleaning to do.😊
Amazing, common sense content! Thank you!
Please try to contact and work with RF Kennedy in his effort to make America healthy again movement!!
The problem is us as individuals dont know how to eat...
We as individuals also don't know grammar.
Our parents, grandparents and forefathers ate less meat. Why in the world would that be a bad thing?
I’m eating a sirloin joint while I watch this.
Any research on keto and depersonalization disorder ?
Corruption is the norm, and we should always train our minds to reject information that comes from sources that have questioable origins. The best food related information that I have seen is anecdotal, which is a shame because it would be so easy to do scientic studies but they aren't done because people who are in positions of conflict would lose money if the facts of how healthy a carnivore diet actually is.
It isn't recognized as real evidence. But study everyone that has successfully carried out their keto to carnivore way of eating. It's a guaranteed positive for all markers of health with those people. The improvements and benefits are undeniable. Beef and other meats, including some fish, cannot be beat for true nutritional value.
Support RFK and Joel salatin
In UK, public health claims there is a link between consumption of red meat and cancer
Obtaining protein from meat such as poultry, eggs and turkey is fine. You can not expect everyone to eat the same food, certain amount of choice is necessary!
Red meat is the best choice for most people. No other source of protein provides as much zinc. Eggs are high in sulfur and toxic retinoids
the supposed link to cancer came from a survey study (self-reporting what people had been eating over the past year) and included in the "red meat" category all junk prpcessed meats like hot dogs and salami, and did not question the intake of highly processed grains and sugars. The people who ate less processed meats generally ate less processed foods of all kinds. Fatally flawed study!!
The corruption is breath-taking.
So that means eat more meat. They are always wrong
I was just looking at a new paper yesterday comparing the muscle protein synthesis (MPS) response to 4 oz. beef patty compared to soy-based patty. 8 oz of soy-based patty was needed for an equivalent MPS response. As we age we become anabolic resistant (requiring larger protein loads to stimulate MPS which translates into higher protein requirements per pound of body weight). I’m a retired dietitian and it breaks my heart to see the ill health of my friends who have long avoided animal protein sources. It’s not a head-scratcher why there are epidemics of sarcopenia, osteopenia and osteoporosis, and (of course) insulin resistance. See: The anabolic response to a ground beef patty and soy-based meat alternative: a randomized controlled trial. Am J Clin Nutr 2024;120:1085-1092.
Thank you for sharing this information.
at least, they are only recommendations, not laws.
One of the main recent arguments purporting to link Red Meat consumption and Colon Cancer seems to be regarding the red meat carbohydrate, Neu5Gc (Sialic Acid). What are your thoughts on this and the study published 4 years ago relating to the human immune response to Neu5Gc ? (Bashir, Fezeu, Ben-Ayre, Yehuda et al)
If you have a link to the study we'd be happy to comment
@@metabolicmind As usual, our pals at TH-cam won't post the link I tried to post! But just search for the researchers' names I gave you. There are also other studies. They all seem to involve Rats!

Red meat isn't causing metabolic illnesses . Ultra- processed food causes such health problems .Official Guidelines are mis-leading, due to Conflict of Interests .

Thanks Dr. Scher, I'm still trying to have success educating my 30+ yr old sons. "Dad, are you manic again?"
Good next generation is smarter than you at least.
@jvlbme Probably True, but I'm witnessing a transformation in my wife of nearly 37 years mental symptoms. Call me crazy, but something fundamental has changed in her... Even she is realizing something inside her is changing...this is a woman that believes she has a demon in her, my son and his wife had already cast one demon out of her, so that was a win... but she hasn't been this good in...well it's been so many years I don't even know when she was happy...the boys were still in H.S.
@@Zaeiouy_dB She has a... plant-... demon... in her..? Oh, you people never seize to amaze.
Eat more red meat but not processed red meat. Steaks are great! Go for the best quality. Avoid processed junk food which makes you sick, sugar, seed oils, emulsifiers and food like substances as well as artificial sweeteners.
Well, the US dietary guidelines committee can stuff it, they’ve been wrong and I don’t believe they have my best interests in mind
I will not follow their "guidelines" ever.
I can't believe the best the right can do for health is RFK. How embarrassing.
With all the doctors out there who understand meat for nutrition, you choose THAT? He's pathetic.
Did you change name of your channel?
No one follows the guide lines.
not true at the population level
Its going to change with RFK Jr. The change is coming 😈
Beans, lentils and peas give me very bad gas and knock me out of ketosis. NO THANKS. I’ll stick to my farmer’s market bacon and grass fed beef.
Found Carnivore at 70 and have never been this healthy.
You might think that.
I'm guessing the epidemiological studies he was referring to included the Adventist Health and Mortality studies. They compared Adventists who ate meat to those who did not. All Adventists tend to exercise and abstain from smoking and alcohol. They are taught that their bodies are a temple and eat a relatively healthy diet that either includes meat or does not. Even after adjusting for confounding variables this very high sample size study over many many years found that those Adventists who do not eat meat live longer and healthier lives.
Read that study. And I can tell u as an Adventist it’s a total crock. Most Adventist eat tons of their processed foods such as nutmeat, vegelinks, so good, etc. they also promote and use seed oils in their processing. Currently, they are filling the San hospital with heart disease, cancer, and the rest. And let me tell you, watching around during a sermon, the church is full of obese, arthritic, and anything but healthy people. It’s clear to me that the health message has been totally captured by the processed food groups.
You to understand how to read studies, do the stats yourself, critique them, and not just rely on the abstract.
Ps. Look at the disclosed interests in that study…Lomalinda Uni and sanatorium.
No mate. If you look at the actually measured figures, which they thankfully made available in the paper, it was the reverse in every case. You need to do the maths yourself though 😁. The more meat people ate the less all cause mortality, heart disease and cancer they got. The authors reversed that observed finding by fraudulently changing the numbers with dodgy statistics.
@@davidsparavec8996 Well put.
@@davidsparavec8996 so those reading this thread can believe a peer-reviewed study that was published in a well-respected periodical or the unsupported claims of a random person with an internet connection. I don't doubt that you are Adventist but that does not make you an expert on this topic
@ I have read the study. I am in the medical field. And I have the relevant additional qualifications to review a study, so my comments stand.

How many Americans follow the dietary guidelines?
Pretty much all who live on processed convenience foods and don't understand why they are becoming overweight and develop chronic health issues.
Not many..
@@magnessskippton2509 The Dietary Guidelines for Americans (DGA) provide nutritional advice for healthy people and those at risk for chronic disease. The guidelines recommend:




Eating a variety of foods: Choose nutrient-dense foods from all food groups.




Limiting unhealthy fats: Avoid too much fat, saturated fat, and cholesterol. The DGA recommends that saturated fat make up less than 10% of your daily calories.



Limiting added sugars: Limit added sugars to less than 10% of your daily calories, starting at age 2. Avoid added sugars for children under 2.

Limiting sodium: Limit sodium to less than 2,300 milligrams per day, and even less for children under 14.

Limiting alcohol: If you drink alcohol, do so in moderation. The DGA recommends that men limit their alcohol intake to 2 drinks or less per day, and women limit theirs to 1 drink or less per day.


Eating fiber-rich carbohydrates: About three-quarters of your daily calories should come from fiber-rich carbohydrates, such as fruits, vegetables, grains, and legumes.

Drinking water: Choose water instead of milk.

The DGA also includes new dietary advice for infants and toddlers.
You can find the DGA at DietaryGuidelines.gov.
Great question! Beyond that though is the impact these guidelines have on things like SNAP and the foods being served in hospitals and school cafeterias
