I paired the Keto diet with daily intermittent fasting and went from 280 lbs to 185 with close to no loose skin after. My Life will never be the same and I’m glad.
are u able to maintain and keep the eating habits? if no reply i consider this a paid comment. And paid comment as in paid to comment here to make the video look good..
I use keto off and on paired with fasting to stimulate autophagy. As a bonus I love the the mental clarity and energy I get from it. I'm 40 years old and never really been overweight. As an adult I've pretty much always had good eating and exercise habits. Being metabolically flexible is amazing and I highly recommend everyone be. Not a paid advertisement l don't even know who's profiting from the way I live. It's definitely not big pharmaceutical companies or the billion dollar junk food industry.
So true. Thanks to both of you Tom and Mark for being people who walk the walk and are strong forces in the transformation of the world in a positive direction. LCHF and metabolic flexibility is about so much more than weight loss. It's about all kinds of freedom which make up our quality of life.
It has changed my life and I am only on week four. I am very overweight so Keto will have to be my lifestyle. Keto has helped my blood pressure when meds. did not. It has helped my inflammation in my legs and I can already breath better. I feel like I am getting my life back instead of waiting to die. I wish I was thin now so I could be a spokesperson for Keto but I still am very overweight. Wish me luck and thank you for my life.
I used to be a slave to food. But thanks to giving keto a try paired with IF, it feels SOOOOO good! and it's mind blowing to go from eating RIGHT AWAY when I wake up, with 5 meals a day, with snacks in between even when not really hungry, and often a big before bed, sometimes IN BED...to going to bed thinking, "shit I just realized I had one meal today." Truly never thought this was possible. I used to get SOOO hangry if I missed a meal. Now I'm happier than ever:) also I'm 6'4 and under 200lbs for the first time in idk how many years. I do fasted full body workouts, even on my heavy day, I save money not buying whey protein or pre workout. It's AMAZING. I hope anyone who is having trouble acheiving their goals is open minded enough to try it, to give it a true shot. REMEMBER, TO GET THE THINGS YOUVE NEVER HAD YOU HAVE TO DO THINGS YOU'VE NEVER DONE. GOD BLESS!
Juan Harnezz thank you your words give me hope I’m only on my fifth day and I know the first couple of weeks is the hardest. Struggling with energy despite coconut oil. Well done you!
@@larrymaloney877 keto is not soul food ...soul food is like fried chicken ,mac n cheese , greens and bbq and potato salad and stuff like that .. that is nothing like keto ! LOLOLOL
One week keto and I am finding it difficult, but I am not quitting. This guy is so right . Chronic pain has already stopped. IBS, no episodes this week. I’m sleeping better. My doctor wants me to get gastric sleeve, so I’m serious about this journey. Surgery will be my last resort. For the first time, I have hope. Thank you so much for sharing your work.
One day, I thought to myself: "Do I prefer to feel good in my mouth for few moments every day, or to feel good everywhere in my body all the time?" Haven't had any sugar, grain or starch since then...
Yes I tested my keto. I went out had a greasy chicken sandwich and a bowl of chicken nuggets breaded after having lost 41 pounds on keto in 3 months. I FELT LIKE TOTAL SHIT, brain fog, I was panicky and felt like the 90% of the population that isn't eating KETO again. It wasn't worth the 10 minutes of reward for my taste buds.
Thanks Michal- Ohhh I like that!!! That saying is something I need to have on my mirror! I have never really been horribly overweight but I just feel squishy and no leanness. I felt tired alot and I am entering peri menopause and the tummy is chubby. I want to better than I ever have for the 2nd have of my life. I have been doing keto for a week and I feel better than I did in my 20s. My skin is looking amazing, although I have been eating a whole avocado everyday with some olive oil on it. I need to make sure this becomes a lifestyle. I can’t say..oh it’s the holidays or a wedding, etc. and throw it all away. Plus that keto flu thing is yucky, so I need to stay in ketosis.
I love it. I could have never imagined living without being dependent on food, without looking where I could get food anywhere I went, without worrying about where I could get my next meal. One day I wasn't able to find anything for lunch in the city that was keto friendly. So I just didn't eat at all until dinner. This freedom is just amazing!
Keto has been a life changing style for me. No more joint pain, plantar fasciitis gone in less then 2 weeks after starting, weight is down 8 pounds so far. Overall amazing transformation in only 2 months in keto...wow!!!! Tom Bilyeu is the best interviewer and so smart!! I love watching you!!
As someone who has underlying ADHD and a eating disorder - in which i would binge eat emotionally, Keto changed my life! I do not binge anymore, my focus is on point, I'm more calm and my mood is completely stable. I feel amazing!
At the age of 47, after a lifetime of eating "healthy" with calories restricted AND exercise and still gaining weight I realized my doctors saying "it is about calories and calories out" was just not true. I knew I was eating less than 1300 calories a day and exercising and should NOT be gaining weight. Although I never ate desserts and avoided sugar itself, I was eating bagels, pasta, whole grain bread and lots of fruit... within 1 month of eating a low carb/high fat "diet" my whole life really did change. I lost the weight, which was great and my first goal, but all the other benefits are why I will never give up this way of eating. I am now 50, my last physical was "excellent", I have the energy of a 20 year old, sleep like a baby and no more cognitive fog. I SHOULD be really suffering right now as I am in menopause but I am surfing instead. Keto really did change my life. Not all calories are equal and there is no such thing as an "essential carbohydrate".
keto living literally took me off high blood pressure! i cant even begin to say how i feel. Thank you Jesus for the police officer at work to introduce me to learning about keto living! lost 50 lbs since june 10, 2019, no swollen ankles, mental clarity..no brain fog..so many more..
@Ryan What kind of foods did you eat on the ketogenic diet? Did you do IF or OMAD? Thinking of starting the ketogenic diet. Any tips would help! Thanks!
This is bar none, the best video I have seen at explaining the benefits of keto or fasting and how it changes our relationship with food. I do intermittent fasting and people think I am depriving my self of food. i eat when I feel I need to eat. I work out heavy with weights, i am lean and if I want to cheat I do, but it is rare that I feel the need to. Kick carbs and your brain will change.
My life has born a remarkable parallel to Mark Sisson's. After my step dad had a heart attack, I went on a very low fat diet in my early 20s mostly as encouragement to him. I was playing a good level of soccer, and existed mostly on vegetables, , carbs, very little meat and some fish. I was very fit with resting heart rate of 40, but the word rest wasn't in my vocabulary either. It wasnt uncommon to play 3 hours squash a day and then go football training. After taking up squash, I started eating a lot more carbs (for energy) and I think that combined with a very stressful job, was the beginning of my gut problems. Some years later, after IBS symptoms for years, bloating, cramps, joint ache, and general inflmmation, including a lot of mucous, out of desperation, I saw a nutritionist in Geneva, recommended to me a good friend. Sounds dramatic but she changed my life. Apparently without having any allergies, I was hypersensitive to gluten and lactose so these were off the menu for a while, and eggs back on. The difference to my life was so dramatic that it pushed me into nutrition, and I qualified as a sports nutritionist to help others. Personally I eat keto, and my body is well fat adapted after 6 years. I am rarely hungry. I really enjoy what I eat and do occasionally eat a slice or two of pizza without ill effect. I do regular intermittent fasts, sometimes train in a fasted state, and still manage to put on muscle. At 67 I feel healthier than I have felt since my late twenties. I have a young family so staying fit and healthy is for them as well as me, but I do recommend giving keto a go.
Great Grey Host, i started dieting Dec.2019 which evolved to dirty keto and then I.F......So I've lost 47lbs. now happy to be at 210lbs.....This is a lifestyle, not a diet. I appreciate all the keto videos and comments shared on youtube, because this is where I learned about keto/i.f.
I've been on Keto for 2 months and have lost 30 pounds, I REALLY like this Keto diet, I believe I will do this for the rest of my life, because I feel SOOOO damn good inside and looking great on the outside too 😁 ( over the years, that sugar has fucked my body up )
Its' not the sugar its the lack of complex carbs and too much fat. The fact that you were overweight shows that your blood fats were too high from eating too much refined sugar or fat. th-cam.com/video/K0rvSaLm9cc/w-d-xo.html
Tom at 34:50 you ask an amazing question. The answer that I’ve given people around me regarding nutrition and specifically Keto , centers around convictions. I use the concept of convictions as a “anchor”to simplify the conversation all the while allowing the individual to easily apply what I’m saying to their style of learning. In short , exercising your convictions does not take work, thought or effort. They just exist within you. If you’re an honest person it takes zero effort to return that wallet you found to it’s owner with every single dollar bill intact. My Dad to this day is a person that doesn’t drink because he had a visceral experience growing up. My brother won’t touch a carbonated drink of any kind because as a kid he had a painful experience with a soda drink being put up his nose. The moment I realized that keto could have a positive effect on cancer prevention I immediately made a deep connection between keto and my aunt, who I had to watch die of cancer. Thanks for this video, keep up the good work.
I am back on keto. I started it in sept 2019. I felt really good. I stopped in March 2020 when covid hit. I gained all my weight back, my binge eating and food addiction came back full force. I made a decision 27 days ago to give keto ago again and have been doing great. The temptation is still there though and i miss the feeling I got during a binge. But I am not going to give up.
With all respect but the fact how young he still looks give me 80% of assurance to be on a good track with his lifestyle. Thanks for that wonderful interview. Been following him since several years.
I'm loving keto. There are so many recipes for flourless chocolate cakes, zero carb ice cream and breads! I'm not missing out on anything. In fact, on keto, you get to eat everything and still lose weight.
Hi. Are you still doing keto? I am looking for some experiences. Sinds I am struggling on keto...Cold, not feeling relaxt, in my body, hair falling out etc. But some positive things also like less pain. Hope to hear. Thanks.
last night was the first night in weeks that i was able to sleep without any alcohol in my system. at the start of second week no sugar no grain no carbs. only meat eggs and veggies water and black coffee. i feel phenomenal. i don't think ill ever stop.😁
I've been watching the videos on this channel for about 2 weeks, and I just love it! It has helped me a lot, and besides helping my health, I also improve my English!!! Thank YOU, Tom!!! Greetings from Brazil!! 🇧🇷😍
When I see a motivation video that is longer than 5 minutes, I think 5 times before clicking, I almost NEVER attempt to watch any video that’s longer than 10 minutes even when I want to.... BUT I found myself watching all of your 45+ minutes videos without hesitation, and some of the episodes I watched literally 5 times (like David Goggins, Jesse Ezstler, Mel robins, Drew Manning) Your videos are EXTREMELY educational and life altering, not just motivating. I crave challenging myself and pushing myself to the limits, and I find people like you Tom, and almost all of your guests; challenge me to even push harder and harder. Thank You Tom, your guests and everyone behind the cameras working on getting these amazing episodes to the world. God bless you all.
OMG THANK YOU TOM FOR BRINGING MARK!!!!! Mark has played THE most impactful role in my life and my family's in re educating ourselves about health all over again. We had to unlearn the garbage we were taught by conventional medicine and relearn what mark teaches (the best part is it's all research backed!) Thank you Mark and thanks Tom!
Ex vegan here. I was plantbased low fat high carb for 4 years. It was healing at first but then I got lots of food intolerances & leaky gut. I did a 34 day water fast because I heard I could heal leaky gut on a water fast. I then during the fast felt like spirit was leading me to eat animal products again. I quit the fast. I was shooting for 40 days. I ate eggs, yogurt, cottage cheese then onto meat then just ate with no limits. Gut healed & enjoying food & life!😂 now a year later feeling spirit leading me to keto to lose the weight & heal the leaky gut that returned. I'm looking forward to starting. I have been researching keto the last couple days to really understand. I'm excited to jump in! Funny how you say fat is good for you when those vegan doctors say it's bad for you. They all look sick especially Dr. McDougal. Yikes! And you two look healthy. It's the collagen & fat that they are lacking that makes them look sick.
Discovered keto end of 2018 decided to do it in 2019 and now in 2021 still going strong. Best decision i made for my health and will continue this journey for the rest of my life thanks to this guy and so many like him.
I am 66 years young have been on Keto and intermittent fasting for 6 mos. I have lost 62lbs and am off of my blood pressure medicine. I just had my doctor do a lot of bloodwork just to see how it all was since I have been on Keto and haven't cheated at all. My bloodwork is great! everything was normal....I will be on Keto the rest of my life....I don't ever want to be that over 200lb woman again!!!!
@@TB1M1 I took the bait and watched the video, I must say it's nonsense. We now know that high cholesterol is protective and will actually increase health and longevity! What you should look at is HDL to triglyceride ratio. It should be over 4:1, total cholesterol almost doesn't matter and fat won't effect it too much, It's the fat that's eaten with carbs that's the problem. Hope this helps!
@@gofityourself1 Complete lies, no 90+ or centenarians run high cholesterol. In Okinawa and Sardinia cholesterol is 120mg-160mg/dl. Unless you are female with high HDL high cholesterol means an early death. Check out the Cleveland Clinic studies with blood work taken a month before scheduled operation.
I love Sisson. I do carnivore and wow... I could never have imagined how good a person could feel and how well a brain can work when receiving the proper nutrition. Love the video!
Soooooo glad to stumble upon your channel. I have subscribed and hit the bell because I never want to miss a video! Im living the keto lifestyle for 9 months now, down 150 pounds and have only 20-30 pounds left to loose. I went from a size 4xl/24 to now a size medium/10! I’m sitting here binge watching all your videos on keto and good fats and can’t get enough! Awesome job! Keep them coming! Barb from Ontario, Canada 🇨🇦
This is home. This interview just helped crystalize the contours of my understanding of health and metabolic flexibility more. And it felt just like home. Thank you for that.
My wife and i following Virta Health plan for Keto. I'm down 50lbs in a Year. She is reversing diabetes symptoms and lost 30+ lbs. Works for us. Plenty of delicious food to eat. Thanks for sharing.
The key point that people cannot understand about keto is the feeling of freedom. I am not a slave to my hunger and my sweet cravings anymore, i have energy, i dont feel depressed and despite having a bad day at work i dont feel the need of binging on sweets to calm my anxiety because my body is 100% satisfied. That is the number one reason why keto and carnivre is so damn powerful. If i cheat sith carbs or sweets (birthda, xmas) damn i am back to being a skave, mood swings, feeling lethargic and not wanting to workout, why people would want to go back to that awful place? Now i simply ignore the noise, eat whenever i want at home and meet others for coffee or a walk instead of a meal and i never explain my diet lifestyle to others, i just do my own thing 🤷♀️
This guy is legit. I stopped grains and dairy for going on 3 weeks now and before I started it I was training for distance running like 5ks. I was suffering from joint pain especially in my right ankle and its gone. I have no back pain, no ankle pain etc. I keep my carb count under 50gs when a year ago, with my hiit workouts, it was supposed to be around 250gs. It works.
One of the best discussions on Keto. Have been on keto for a few weeks now and i cannot stop singing praises of what it can do to your health (weight loss was not evenin the list of my goals, but its a positive side effect i dont mind). The best part is the Interviewer Tom, who let Mark do most of the talking and was wise enough to be a great listener!
And Mark has such a noble cause, which he mentions at the end of the interview "my mission is literally to affect the health of 100 million people primarily through reorienting their way of eating in a way that develops their metabolic flexibility". If this could be done to the rest of the world, we can hope that many millions will recover from the clutches of these so called chronic/life-long/incurable diseases
I just started keto a week and I am starting to feel better. Before I started keto, I had really bad anxiety, hangry, just very tired, and just really bloat. I notice I have anxiety, alittle tired, and not bloated as much as I use to be. I am so happy keto. I can eat and not be hungry!
This is great guys! Most inspiring video I’ve watched about health and motivation to be healthy. I’ve been trying but failing to keep a strict Keto diet for months… Now I realise my mindset was wrong. You’ve helped me a lot. Thank you!!
I’ve had so many chronic symptoms disappear from going LCHF. Even things I didn’t expect to reverse such as urinary incontinence/frequency. I can tell when I’m going too high on carbs because I develop incontinence. I doubt there is anything in the research about this symptom being reversed with keto. But it’s a definite correlation for me. As well as cognitive performance, Energy, early arthritis issues, the list just goes on.
I‘m so grateful for all the studies & research that have been done on sugar and its effect on our body and mind. Since going keto and combining it with IF & extended water-fasts (4-5 days) I’ve managed to control my autoimmune disease! I’m 20 years old, never have been overweight but I’m doing this for my health and mindset. This is the lifestyle I want to commit to for the rest of my life. :-) We’re on a good path! Much love & strength!
My life has been changed by ketogenic. It is amazing for bipolar disorder. I think research should go into neurological ketones effects that ketones have on Bipolar disorder. Now that my brain is using ketones and not carbs its like I was putting the wrong type of gas in my car.
I feel exactly the same! except im eating raw animal products now too..and the bacteria are all partying now and the brain is saying thank you. Just level headlessness and control, and bliss, zero depression and its like i got a valve now to manage the emotions.... it's to do with the gut flora, the bacterial balance and healthy hormone production.
I love that Mark talks about metabolic flexibility. Many in the keto space think it needs to be ketosis 24/7/365. I like the idea of training my body to be able to easily use both fuel sources, so I go in and out of ketosis every so often
Hi Tom love the way you have brought back the text sub titles (ie Inside Quest) on the screen together with the full key points below. Once again you leading the pack. HEALTH THEORY is going to be huge
The Dedicated Learners! YES!! Same here!! Keto and IF for 15 months now. I've had cancer two times - in 2003 and 2005 and I'm *never* going to get it, or other major health problems and chronic inflammation/joint pain again, thanks to *keto* and *IF* I have tons of energy, and never felt or looked this good since my early 20s and I just turned 50. Keto and IF for Life! ✌💗💫😎
God bless you.. wish you the best and glad we are taking our health back. This knowledge has to hit critical mass or else big pharma will continue to raking it in while people get sicker!!!!
This guy is telling the truth, the effects of a ketogenic diet are absolutely life altering. More energy, more clarity, more focus. I didn’t think this was possible going into middle age. I always thought you’d just feel tired as part of every normal day. After getting on this diet, my energy is better at 48 than I had at 20. This is fantastic info, believe every word. I’ve lost 20 pounds , am only at 12% body fat, and can run circles around my teenage kids. It’s all about the fuel going into the body. Get fat adapted!
A huge fan of Mark and now Tom. Emotionally and Mentally I am ready for this journey and am looking forward to both building my character as well as my body and spirit! Being a late comer I am ready for the back half of my life to be my best. God Bless Mark, Tom, and Dr. Sten Ekberg .
My wrists too! I feel amazing and I'm 7 weeks in....all positive. Lots of trying to explain to and convince friends in the beginning, but finally realized, who cares if they don't fully understand. Great interview (as always) Thanks for being awesome @tombilyeu
jernej tojersu Wow congratulations! I’m doing keto I have falling off so many times! I recently started keto again and I still struggle with the sugar cravings. I’m so upset about. Tell a few pointers! Thank you!
@@mariamunguia8863 for me fasting, both intermittent and extended, has transformed my relationship with food. I have a pretty serious sugar addiction, quitting smoking has been easy in comparison. Fasting has really helped. Look up Dr. Fung
@@mariamunguia8863 Any time you fall off the wagon, get back on right away. Forget the slip, just get back on. Tell yourself "here I am again" and then do it. You'll have slips and bumps, but get back on. Write yourself a big note, hang it on your fridge "Get back on!" It's simple, just get back on.
I'm fairly sure my body has finally switched to ketones as of this week or last. I stopped drinking beer and wine for Lent (Catholic). I started a true Ketogenic diet in earnest mid last month (Feb 2018). Down 5 lbs. I'm getting the interrupted sleep and urinating more. Feeling a little strange in the morning but these symptoms will not deter me. The weight loss is so worth it. I have used LCHF diets in the past with some success but I'm much more knowledgeable now thanks to the access to channels like this one...Thanks y'all.
Awesome interview! Read his book Primal Endurance! This guy knows what he is talking about. Tom you are the best! Thank you for continuing to bring the best interviews and sharing it with us.
I'm on the keto diet and when I was eating carbs I was always hungry. So it wasn't a case of me choosing when I wanted to eat like a parent looks after a child but my body being so hangry and aggressive that I was a slave to food and I was forced and controlled by my body. When you do Keto your cravings go completely and you have the power.
I've tried and failed at keto SO many times till I tried it when I lived alone, away from my toxic family. I'm more in shock everyday about what I'm achieving and capable of. I've not told anyone. Just done it. Naturally progressed into keto and IF. I'm no longer ruled by food. I can eat once a day and feel grateful. I'm losing weight everyday. Feel amazing. I ran today. Actually ran. When two weeks ago i couldn't even jog. Insane.
@@tatenadeau538 you're NOT a failure. At all. Never. Never think that of yourself. I'm sure you're doing your best and things will fall into place when the time is right.
Tom, you are the best interviewer. You let the guest talk. That's what interviews are for. Thank you for being respectful and giving guests a platform to speak.
My grandmother died of hardening of the arteries in 1986. i havent really used much salt since then. not even in cooking. obesity is familial, as is heart disease, stroke and diabetes. but hey. As a baby boomer, i did the basic canadian food guide which was similar to the american one. like a sheep i never questioned it. Fast forward: six years ago it was suggested by my doc that i give up salt. it didnt really help much. but exercise did. so did soups. Again: three years ago i was put on hbp meds, later on water pills too. my blood pressure was 205/100ish! it came from eating all the wrong foods due to work hours. This is how I went from being a college basketball/badminton/competitive swim athlete to over 260 pounds at the last doc appointment in January. my a1c was 7.5. i just started Keto lazily about three weeks ago. It didnt take long for me to get more serious though. As a result: I havent been "able" to take my blood pressure meds or water retention pills for about five days now, since i finished my first 3 day fast (which wasnt easy or fun but it sure changed things somehow). My blood glucose was so low i was a bit worried sometimes too. It was in the 3.2-4.6 range for over a week. now its a bit higher because im trying to figure out veggies and nuts. and surprise! im even eating salt, which will take some getting used to. I'll figure myself out. But so far it's been great! At least I know that the struggles are for the right results! and i love a good challenge! But i hate the fact that my grandmother and my mother died so prematurely at 73, due to heart disease and stroke. how can we live in a world where people dont care about that...
A few years back I went full keto because I noticed some inflammation in my ankles and wrists. I realized I couldn’t do a high carb lifestyle anymore despite being really active. I went full keto and felt amazing and performed better than I ever have before. I even used to run Spartan races (Sprint, Super) completely fasted a whole day before. Then after a move two years ago, decided to work on my overall strength and went back to high carb and had a pretty successful bulking cycle. Now about a month into keto and my body actually went into keto fairly quickly with no keto flu or anything. It’s like my body was ready to be fat adapted again or something idk
Great info! Keto and IF have changed my life. No inflammation, better physique, clear head, and energy. Less time at the gym because I go with purpose to build muscle. Week 11 and I will never go back to sugar.
Hi Linn. Still doing keto? Curious because I am struggling on keto. And not feeling myself and relaxt. Also hair falling out. Just looking for experiences. It does help me for some other body issues though.. Thanks a lot
Thanks to the Keto diet I lost like a lot of weight. I lost 10 pounds, for some people that doesn't seem a lot, but for me was a huge achievement because that was something that I started doing just for curiosity. And later became part of my lifestyle.
I really loved this! Good insights and reminders of how the whole body really works. I have a very sensitive gut and keto diet totally made the difference for me. I used to eat a lotof whey and also other grains but it doesn't suit me so well. I used to eat so much sugar & other carbs and then I finally realized that exercise isn't going to make me look ripped so I just wanted change. I first tried palel, but as mentioned in this interview I also was afraid of fats. So I lost the sugar fat & a bit of weight but it didn't make me feel so good. I used to be very wary of keto diet since I had heard a lot of negative from it but did some research and figured that it doesn't cost anything to try it out. At the time I couldn't transit straight to keto foods because I had somuch other stuff left so I had to make the transition smooth. Thankfully I did since I never got the keto flu and the transition was quite easy. I hope this new podcast will open people's minds about health. I would love to see an interview about the importance of gut health. After I got mine in better shape I have been so much more happy and energized. I hope in the future people will come to realize more that the fats aren't the enemy.
Really interesting & I will read up on this some more. Started a keto diet about 5 weeks ago and certainly feel much better (less, or rather no, bloating now and more energy). Wasn't sure how sustainable it would be..will read Mark's links & find out. Thanks Tom B!
I have followed Mark Sisson for almost 10 years through his Daily Apple blog. Spent thousands on primal products over the years. The problem is, if you have genetic bad luck such as APOe4 this kind of low carb high fat diet will highly increase your risk for Cardiovascular disease and Alzheimer’s. Please be very careful and think long term. I know how it feels to be part of the keto and paleo “tribe”...been there since the beginning, but now I have totally revamped my diet and lifestyle and found my real groove.
This is such a great one-on-one discussion about keto. One of the best conversations on the topic I've seen/heard so far. 👏👏👍 I've been living a keto and IF (intermittent fasting) lifestyle for 15 months now and never felt or looked better, and I just turned 50. I will do this forever, as I'm also a two-time cancer survivor and also living with chronic kidney disease, fibromyalgia etc. Keto & IF has cured me of pain, inflammation, disease etc and I'm a die hard fan of this for LIFE! 💪
Really and truly a game changer. It has the power to influence the mind. Everything said in this video has transpired. Really living, not missing out on anything and making progress in life. I look and feel better than I did in my 20's, and I am in my 40's.
I am transitioning from being a sugar addict, to a keto diet. I am fighting myself constantly to accomplish my goal, but I know I need to do it for myself to thrive. I am wanting how to avoid keto flu, so my coworkers do not suffer my wrath lol. I have used limited sun exposure to keep my cystic acne gone and cannot wait to get joint pain and sleep issues addressed. This is one of the most helpful videos I have seen since following you. Thanks!
I did Tim Ferriss’s Slow Carb diet for two weeks before starting keto. I switched because I was learning more about keto and IF, and realized that was the way to go. I had no problem with the change. No keto flu at all. I think possibly the changeover was easy because I’d already quit sugar and flour for two weeks before starting keto.
I've lost 74 lbs I'm 24 weeks doing Keto!! I'm real life success. Was carb and sugar addicted badly!!!!! I'm no superman. It's been MUCH easier than I expected. I'm not good at diets at all. Keto is just "a way to eat" and I dont feel like I'm on a "diet". We all choose to eat things. Sugar is literally and addictive low grade DRUG.
Keto has changed our hunger and focus so, so much. I never ever thought as a low-calorie dieter that I could ever have cheese again, let alone that I wouldn't want to eat every second of every day.
Excellent, excellent, EXCELLENT video. Superb information and just what we need to hear in America. Combining Keto with intermittent fasting has changed my life and my wife’s life for the better. The gains and benefits appear to be exponential. Let’s do this everybody. America can only get better if we get healthier.
I’ve just started keto , but took numerous days of no processed foods & gradually lowering carbs before going into starting keto .. only 2-3 days in rt now but thus far minimal keto flu symptoms..yay 😁 👏 I have LMNT electrolytes pks that I drink 1-2 per day so feel this has helped !!
Tom, when it comes to the keto diet and the modified relationship with hunger, I look at it primarily as a weakened hunger pang without any of the hangry effects that a low blood sugar reading in a person who is glucose dependent. Because of this, you feel one, weakened sensation and I think "oh I'm feeling a hunger pang," which is so weak, I can choose to ignore it if I want and it goes away shortly thereafter, or I can entertain it but its a manageable feeling. When you have ALL of the side effects traditionally associated with hunger, all at the same time, is when people will often grab for whatever they crave or is close at hand - ANYTHING TO EAT RIGHT NOW. When you feel the benefits of more lucid thinking, and a more fluid, less bloated (lower water retention) more pain free body, that is also a secondary form of encouragement to keep on going.
Like Mark says , once you are adapted you can have more carbs without the grains of course. Like him, finger pain and other joint pain and stomach aches. However not when giving up grains and enjoying healthy fats
No grains means no rice, wheat, oats, etc. In the end, you have to get to a no sugar state. Grains have lots of sugar as does most processed food. Also, give up or reduce dairy. This really helped alleviate my joint pains.
booshmanstaff within 2 weeks my arthritis was pain was history. And for someone with cronic back pain Im bouncing out of bed in the morning. I love my food. Im far more inventive with my meal planning than I ever was. Every day is a good day now.
Mark Sisson looks in his 60's, not 50's. I was actually going to say he looks age 65,… and he actually is age 65 in this clip. His birthday is July, 1953.
Regardless of how much weight I end up losing or not losing, the best thing is not being hungry all the time! I've gone from a sugar addict to having no cravings or hunger. I'm into my third week now and I've started eating one meal a day, all pretty easily and without any slip-ups. I've been on many kinds of diets before but never imagined I could do intermittent fasting.
I cut caffeine, sugar, and drastically reduced carbs. Also having been lucky to never have liked breakfast all my life, it was easy to eliminate it. Went to one meal a day within a week. I feel better already and continue to educate myself on paleo, keto ,carnivore diets. Starting walking one hour a day with a plan to double it when soreness subsides. One hour in the morning, and one in the evening. Never going back.
Changed my life th-cam.com/users/postUgkxIUm04tAgSzlAhCWEr7VlRptRAMVsjeAC I will never eat the same ever again. "Unless you physically trip and your face lands in a box of donuts, there is no such thing as a 'slip'." Get that mind set and you'll win again and again.
OMG, KETO! Perfect start to the health series! TOM, great content and great idea to segregate health from the other super content that u create for us! You are changing my life with each interview. THANK YOU! 🙏
I was carrying a dead body for a long time, abusing steroids, overeating, oversexed, overworked, overstressed, I was looking muscular like a model outside but full of insecurities and with a big trauma from my childhood related with my sexuality and my poor thinking and I had lack of mobility and flexibility, I was literally dying inside, I wasn't aware of it until my body started to give me signs, a lot of pain and inflammation and a big mess with my hormonal balance,intuitively I went from one extreme to another one, became vegan for a period of time to detox my body and I lost all the gains from the steroids, to realize that my biggest enemy was my ego the created lust in my mind , a lot of emotional pain that i was avioding pursuing pleasure rushing to my death because my mom was dying from cancer started to release slowly down, and my healing process began doing meditation and yoga, now I have recover my vitality and my health, and have a wonderful relationship with my husband, I feel happier every day doing a ketogenic diet and intermittent fasting has helped me to get to this point. I'm more flexible, leaner and I have developed a lot of body control 🙏🤸♂️🧘♂️🏋️♂️🚴♂️ I overcame my old self that one was driven by fear and lust and I'm grateful for my past. Now I'm being driven by love and inspiration ❤🙏🙌💪
Soooooo timely! My son in-law has been in and out of the hospital with pancreatitis. Lots of pain and worry of course! I just shared this vid with them. I hope they watch and apply. If not I got a ton of great information! Thanks again for another great guest!! ❤️❤️❤️
I paired the Keto diet with daily intermittent fasting and went from 280 lbs to 185 with close to no loose skin after. My Life will never be the same and I’m glad.
And how much do you weight now? Thought so.
Did you keep the weight off
are u able to maintain and keep the eating habits? if no reply i consider this a paid comment. And paid comment as in paid to comment here to make the video look good..
I use keto off and on paired with fasting to stimulate autophagy. As a bonus I love the the mental clarity and energy I get from it. I'm 40 years old and never really been overweight. As an adult I've pretty much always had good eating and exercise habits. Being metabolically flexible is amazing and I highly recommend everyone be. Not a paid advertisement l don't even know who's profiting from the way I live. It's definitely not big pharmaceutical companies or the billion dollar junk food industry.
@@chrisrobbins2632 he weighs 300 now
So true. Thanks to both of you Tom and Mark for being people who walk the walk and are strong forces in the transformation of the world in a positive direction. LCHF and metabolic flexibility is about so much more than weight loss. It's about all kinds of freedom which make up our quality of life.
Yes, Freedom! Love your work, Dr. E!
Dr. Sten, you also have the same power and great impact on people's lives! Thank you! 🇧🇷😍
Nicely said 😊
If Mark had gone on a high protein diet he would have looked better. He doesn't look healthy.
I hope to see you in IT soon.
It has changed my life and I am only on week four. I am very overweight so Keto will have to be my lifestyle. Keto has helped my blood pressure when meds. did not. It has helped my inflammation in my legs and I can already breath better. I feel like I am getting my life back instead of waiting to die. I wish I was thin now so I could be a spokesperson for Keto but I still am very overweight. Wish me luck and thank you for my life.
Hows your month progress
So good to hear!
Just wonderful...x
You're on a journey - enjoy the ride.
Keto will kill u eventually. Try Snake Diet
I used to be a slave to food. But thanks to giving keto a try paired with IF, it feels SOOOOO good! and it's mind blowing to go from eating RIGHT AWAY when I wake up, with 5 meals a day, with snacks in between even when not really hungry, and often a big before bed, sometimes IN BED...to going to bed thinking, "shit I just realized I had one meal today." Truly never thought this was possible. I used to get SOOO hangry if I missed a meal. Now I'm happier than ever:) also I'm 6'4 and under 200lbs for the first time in idk how many years. I do fasted full body workouts, even on my heavy day, I save money not buying whey protein or pre workout. It's AMAZING. I hope anyone who is having trouble acheiving their goals is open minded enough to try it, to give it a true shot. REMEMBER, TO GET THE THINGS YOUVE NEVER HAD YOU HAVE TO DO THINGS YOU'VE NEVER DONE. GOD BLESS!
Amen bro it's the IF which makes the keto work. It's all about limiting how many times your insulin is spiked.
keto is soul food rebranded.
Well said!
Juan Harnezz thank you your words give me hope I’m only on my fifth day and I know the first couple of weeks is the hardest. Struggling with energy despite coconut oil. Well done you!
@@larrymaloney877 keto is not soul food ...soul food is like fried chicken ,mac n cheese , greens and bbq and potato salad and stuff like that .. that is nothing like keto ! LOLOLOL
One of the main reason's I started my health journey is because of The Primal Blueprint! Such a great interview.
Awesome!
KenDBerryMD, love your TH-cam channel. It's awesome!
me too it saved me from a very slippery slide of doom that was the SAD diet.
Jan 2nd 356... today 274... Need I say more? Thanks Ken B. ,thanks Tom B. thanks Eric B.!
Dr. Berry in da hiz-ous. Doogie Howser aint got shit on you doc!
One week keto and I am finding it difficult, but I am not quitting. This guy is so right . Chronic pain has already stopped. IBS, no episodes this week. I’m sleeping better. My doctor wants me to get gastric sleeve, so I’m serious about this journey. Surgery will be my last resort. For the first time, I have hope. Thank you so much for sharing your work.
Keep it up, you can do it 👍🏻👍🏻
Hey! How are you doing now?
How are you doing ?
How are you doing now Willy? Have you manage to stay on with the lifestyle change?
One day, I thought to myself: "Do I prefer to feel good in my mouth for few moments every day, or to feel good everywhere in my body all the time?"
Haven't had any sugar, grain or starch since then...
you can make keto breads etc......made from coconut flour and ground flax.....
That's is awesome, you successfully rewired your brain.
Yes I tested my keto. I went out had a greasy chicken sandwich and a bowl of chicken nuggets breaded after having lost 41 pounds on keto in 3 months. I FELT LIKE TOTAL SHIT, brain fog, I was panicky and felt like the 90% of the population that isn't eating KETO again. It wasn't worth the 10 minutes of reward for my taste buds.
Thanks Michal- Ohhh I like that!!! That saying is something I need to have on my mirror! I have never really been horribly overweight but I just feel squishy and no leanness.
I felt tired alot and I am entering peri menopause and the tummy is chubby.
I want to better than I ever have for the 2nd have of my life.
I have been doing keto for a week and I feel better than I did in my 20s. My skin is looking amazing, although I have been eating a whole avocado everyday with some olive oil on it.
I need to make sure this becomes a lifestyle.
I can’t say..oh it’s the holidays or a wedding, etc. and throw it all away.
Plus that keto flu thing is yucky, so I need to stay in ketosis.
Mj the cheating cures itself, I learned long ago, good luck to you
I love it. I could have never imagined living without being dependent on food, without looking where I could get food anywhere I went, without worrying about where I could get my next meal. One day I wasn't able to find anything for lunch in the city that was keto friendly. So I just didn't eat at all until dinner. This freedom is just amazing!
I so felt that! So true indeed.
Keto has been a life changing style for me. No more joint pain, plantar fasciitis gone in less then 2 weeks after starting, weight is down 8 pounds so far. Overall amazing transformation in only 2 months in keto...wow!!!! Tom Bilyeu is the best interviewer and so smart!! I love watching you!!
Wow this guys actually listens and lets his interviewee talk, simply amazed.
As someone who has underlying ADHD and a eating disorder - in which i would binge eat emotionally, Keto changed my life! I do not binge anymore, my focus is on point, I'm more calm and my mood is completely stable. I feel amazing!
I always had a feeling ADHD was linked to diet... my ADHD flares up and I do stupid stuff when I’m eating bad!
😭😭 I feel this in my soul. Thank you for sharing.
Wow this sentence just described my problem in one sentence, might try it now...
At the age of 47, after a lifetime of eating "healthy" with calories restricted AND exercise and still gaining weight I realized my doctors saying "it is about calories and calories out" was just not true.
I knew I was eating less than 1300 calories a day and exercising and should NOT be gaining weight. Although I never ate desserts and avoided sugar itself, I was eating bagels, pasta, whole grain bread and lots of fruit... within 1 month of eating a low carb/high fat "diet" my whole life really did change. I lost the weight, which was great and my first goal, but all the other benefits are why I will never give up this way of eating. I am now 50, my last physical was "excellent", I have the energy of a 20 year old, sleep like a baby and no more cognitive fog. I SHOULD be really suffering right now as I am in menopause but I am surfing instead. Keto really did change my life.
Not all calories are equal and there is no such thing as an "essential carbohydrate".
Damg
Amen
"I should be suffering, but I am surfing"
One great life quote to live by!
Keep keto and surfing :) Good job!
You were under counting your calories if you think you were not losing weight on 1300 calories a day.
Love the progress bar on the video please keep doing that!
I second this!!
I third this :)
keto living literally took me off high blood pressure! i cant even begin to say how i feel. Thank you Jesus for the police officer at work to introduce me to learning about keto living! lost 50 lbs since june 10, 2019, no swollen ankles, mental clarity..no brain fog..so many more..
Was it the devil who taught you to eat carbs
Does he have a recipe for keto style donuts?
It changed mine. Sold everything, moved to Florida, started keto and dropped 40 in 3 months. I can't make this stuff up.
Keto Beach congrats
Keto Beach
Sounds like a plan, congrats brother.
Woohoo I’m keto and have been for nearly a year and dropped 55kg and turned my health around! Thanks Tom!
That's amazing! Congrats!
Phenomenal mate!! Congrats!
Yes congrats!!
RYAN SHAND that sounds amazing
@Ryan What kind of foods did you eat on the ketogenic diet? Did you do IF or OMAD? Thinking of starting the ketogenic diet. Any tips would help! Thanks!
This is bar none, the best video I have seen at explaining the benefits of keto or fasting and how it changes our relationship with food. I do intermittent fasting and people think I am depriving my self of food. i eat when I feel I need to eat. I work out heavy with weights, i am lean and if I want to cheat I do, but it is rare that I feel the need to. Kick carbs and your brain will change.
My life has born a remarkable parallel to Mark Sisson's. After my step dad had a heart attack, I went on a very low fat diet in my early 20s mostly as encouragement to him. I was playing a good level of soccer, and existed mostly on vegetables, , carbs, very little meat and some fish. I was very fit with resting heart rate of 40, but the word rest wasn't in my vocabulary either. It wasnt uncommon to play 3 hours squash a day and then go football training. After taking up squash, I started eating a lot more carbs (for energy) and I think that combined with a very stressful job, was the beginning of my gut problems.
Some years later, after IBS symptoms for years, bloating, cramps, joint ache, and general inflmmation, including a lot of mucous, out of desperation, I saw a nutritionist in Geneva, recommended to me a good friend.
Sounds dramatic but she changed my life. Apparently without having any allergies, I was hypersensitive to gluten and lactose so these were off the menu for a while, and eggs back on.
The difference to my life was so dramatic that it pushed me into nutrition, and I qualified as a sports nutritionist to help others. Personally I eat keto, and my body is well fat adapted after 6 years. I am rarely hungry. I really enjoy what I eat and do occasionally eat a slice or two of pizza without ill effect. I do regular intermittent fasts, sometimes train in a fasted state, and still manage to put on muscle. At 67 I feel healthier than I have felt since my late twenties.
I have a young family so staying fit and healthy is for them as well as me, but I do recommend giving keto a go.
My wife and I started KETO In Feb 2019. We are both down 40 pounds each.
How long did it take?
It's nothing to do with keto . You just starting eat healthier and 20times less portions you fat fuck
Arnoldas Kuznecovas you should write for hallmark
@@GreyGhost-r4z you should do it for idiots paper, ok dumb fuck :)
Great Grey Host, i started dieting Dec.2019 which evolved to dirty keto and then I.F......So I've lost 47lbs. now happy to be at 210lbs.....This is a lifestyle, not a diet. I appreciate all the keto videos and comments shared on youtube, because this is where I learned about keto/i.f.
I've been on Keto for 2 months and have lost 30 pounds, I REALLY like this Keto diet, I believe I will do this for the rest of my life, because I feel SOOOO damn good inside and looking great on the outside too 😁 ( over the years, that sugar has fucked my body up )
Its' not the sugar its the lack of complex carbs and too much fat. The fact that you were overweight shows that your blood fats were too high from eating too much refined sugar or fat. th-cam.com/video/K0rvSaLm9cc/w-d-xo.html
@@TB1M1 no, fat is never the problem! You can't eat too much fat except if you get diarrhea.
So how is the keto doing. Are you still eating low carb higher fat?
Same. On on month 11
@@TB1M1 lol it's totally the sugar, there is so much research on this.
Tom at 34:50 you ask an amazing question. The answer that I’ve given people around me regarding nutrition and specifically Keto , centers around convictions. I use the concept of convictions as a “anchor”to simplify the conversation all the while allowing the individual to easily apply what I’m saying to their style of learning.
In short , exercising your convictions does not take work, thought or effort. They just exist within you. If you’re an honest person it takes zero effort to return that wallet you found to it’s owner with every single dollar bill intact. My Dad to this day is a person that doesn’t drink because he had a visceral experience growing up. My brother won’t touch a carbonated drink of any kind because as a kid he had a painful experience with a soda drink being put up his nose.
The moment I realized that keto could have a positive effect on cancer prevention I immediately made a deep connection between keto and my aunt, who I had to watch die of cancer.
Thanks for this video, keep up the good work.
You have just inspired me , as a past cancer patient I won the jackpot thanks brother.
I am back on keto. I started it in sept 2019. I felt really good. I stopped in March 2020 when covid hit. I gained all my weight back, my binge eating and food addiction came back full force.
I made a decision 27 days ago to give keto ago again and have been doing great.
The temptation is still there though and i miss the feeling I got during a binge. But I am not going to give up.
how's it going
Well done for getting back to it!
Right!! You should never give up on keto. I hope you get back on keto again and stick with it.
With all respect but the fact how young he still looks give me 80% of assurance to be on a good track with his lifestyle. Thanks for that wonderful interview. Been following him since several years.
I'm loving keto. There are so many recipes for flourless chocolate cakes, zero carb ice cream and breads! I'm not missing out on anything. In fact, on keto, you get to eat everything and still lose weight.
Been on strict Keto for 5 weeks. Down 17 lbs. This has, and will continue to change my life!
Hi. Are you still doing keto? I am looking for some experiences. Sinds I am struggling on keto...Cold, not feeling relaxt, in my body, hair falling out etc. But some positive things also like less pain. Hope to hear. Thanks.
@bronchoped1 Nope it is a awful diet! And made my whole health worse.. No extremities anymore. Just healthy, balanced eating here. ;) Feels great.
Sisson is the man. Love his Foods. His writing. And his outlook on life. Incredible person.
last night was the first night in weeks that i was able to sleep without any alcohol in my system. at the start of second week no sugar no grain no carbs. only meat eggs and veggies water and black coffee. i feel phenomenal. i don't think ill ever stop.😁
Thats dope ! How it’s going ?
try "bullet proof" coffee to eliminate hunger during fasting...
I’m doing the same thing and last night was my first night of real sleep w/o the use of alcohol or sleep aids in years!!!!
I've been watching the videos on this channel for about 2 weeks, and I just love it! It has helped me a lot, and besides helping my health, I also improve my English!!! Thank YOU, Tom!!! Greetings from Brazil!! 🇧🇷😍
When I see a motivation video that is longer than 5 minutes, I think 5 times before clicking, I almost NEVER attempt to watch any video that’s longer than 10 minutes even when I want to.... BUT I found myself watching all of your 45+ minutes videos without hesitation, and some of the episodes I watched literally 5 times (like David Goggins, Jesse Ezstler, Mel robins, Drew Manning)
Your videos are EXTREMELY educational and life altering, not just motivating.
I crave challenging myself and pushing myself to the limits, and I find people like you Tom, and almost all of your guests; challenge me to even push harder and harder.
Thank You Tom, your guests and everyone behind the cameras working on getting these amazing episodes to the world.
God bless you all.

Kudos to the person who does all the show notes and links!! GREAT, THANK YOU!!!!!
OMG THANK YOU TOM FOR BRINGING MARK!!!!! Mark has played THE most impactful role in my life and my family's in re educating ourselves about health all over again. We had to unlearn the garbage we were taught by conventional medicine and relearn what mark teaches (the best part is it's all research backed!) Thank you Mark and thanks Tom!
It was my honor to have him on! I think he's amazing.
Started Keto in June of 2020 it's now Feb of 2021 and I'm down 70 lbs from 230lbs to 160lbs.. Amazing transformation...
Well done
Ex vegan here. I was plantbased low fat high carb for 4 years. It was healing at first but then I got lots of food intolerances & leaky gut. I did a 34 day water fast because I heard I could heal leaky gut on a water fast. I then during the fast felt like spirit was leading me to eat animal products again. I quit the fast. I was shooting for 40 days. I ate eggs, yogurt, cottage cheese then onto meat then just ate with no limits. Gut healed & enjoying food & life!😂 now a year later feeling spirit leading me to keto to lose the weight & heal the leaky gut that returned. I'm looking forward to starting. I have been researching keto the last couple days to really understand. I'm excited to jump in!
Funny how you say fat is good for you when those vegan doctors say it's bad for you. They all look sick especially Dr. McDougal. Yikes! And you two look healthy. It's the collagen & fat that they are lacking that makes them look sick.
Discovered keto end of 2018 decided to do it in 2019 and now in 2021 still going strong. Best decision i made for my health and will continue this journey for the rest of my life thanks to this guy and so many like him.
I am 66 years young have been on Keto and intermittent fasting for 6 mos. I have lost 62lbs and am off of my blood pressure medicine. I just had my doctor do a lot of bloodwork just to see how it all was since I have been on Keto and haven't cheated at all. My bloodwork is great! everything was normal....I will be on Keto the rest of my life....I don't ever want to be that over 200lb woman again!!!!

@@TB1M1 I took the bait and watched the video, I must say it's nonsense. We now know that high cholesterol is protective and will actually increase health and longevity! What you should look at is HDL to triglyceride ratio. It should be over 4:1, total cholesterol almost doesn't matter and fat won't effect it too much, It's the fat that's eaten with carbs that's the problem. Hope this helps!
good for you ---awesome

Soooooo glad to stumble upon your channel. I have subscribed and hit the bell because I never want to miss a video!

That’s an impressive transformation, congratulations.
This is home. This interview just helped crystalize the contours of my understanding of health and metabolic flexibility more. And it felt just like home. Thank you for that.
My wife and i following Virta Health plan for Keto. I'm down 50lbs in a Year. She is reversing diabetes symptoms and lost 30+ lbs. Works for us. Plenty of delicious food to eat. Thanks for sharing.
The key point that people cannot understand about keto is the feeling of freedom. I am not a slave to my hunger and my sweet cravings anymore, i have energy, i dont feel depressed and despite having a bad day at work i dont feel the need of binging on sweets to calm my anxiety because my body is 100% satisfied. That is the number one reason why keto and carnivre is so damn powerful. If i cheat sith carbs or sweets (birthda, xmas) damn i am back to being a skave, mood swings, feeling lethargic and not wanting to workout, why people would want to go back to that awful place? Now i simply ignore the noise, eat whenever i want at home and meet others for coffee or a walk instead of a meal and i never explain my diet lifestyle to others, i just do my own thing 🤷♀️
This guy is legit. I stopped grains and dairy for going on 3 weeks now and before I started it I was training for distance running like 5ks. I was suffering from joint pain especially in my right ankle and its gone. I have no back pain, no ankle pain etc. I keep my carb count under 50gs when a year ago, with my hiit workouts, it was supposed to be around 250gs. It works.
One of the best discussions on Keto. Have been on keto for a few weeks now and i cannot stop singing praises of what it can do to your health (weight loss was not evenin the list of my goals, but its a positive side effect i dont mind). The best part is the Interviewer Tom, who let Mark do most of the talking and was wise enough to be a great listener!
And Mark has such a noble cause, which he mentions at the end of the interview "my mission is literally to affect the health of 100 million people primarily through reorienting their way of eating in a way that develops their metabolic flexibility". If this could be done to the rest of the world, we can hope that many millions will recover from the clutches of these so called chronic/life-long/incurable diseases
I just started keto a week and I am starting to feel better. Before I started keto, I had really bad anxiety, hangry, just very tired, and just really bloat. I notice I have anxiety, alittle tired, and not bloated as much as I use to be. I am so happy keto. I can eat and not be hungry!
This is great guys! Most inspiring video I’ve watched about health and motivation to be healthy. I’ve been trying but failing to keep a strict Keto diet for months… Now I realise my mindset was wrong. You’ve helped me a lot. Thank you!!
I’ve had so many chronic symptoms disappear from going LCHF. Even things I didn’t expect to reverse such as urinary incontinence/frequency. I can tell when I’m going too high on carbs because I develop incontinence. I doubt there is anything in the research about this symptom being reversed with keto. But it’s a definite correlation for me. As well as cognitive performance,
Energy, early arthritis issues, the list just goes on.
I‘m so grateful for all the studies & research that have been done on sugar and its effect on our body and mind. Since going keto and combining it with IF & extended water-fasts (4-5 days) I’ve managed to control my autoimmune disease! I’m 20 years old, never have been overweight but I’m doing this for my health and mindset. This is the lifestyle I want to commit to for the rest of my life. :-)
We’re on a good path! Much love & strength!
The amount of knowledge that is shared within these shows... TOM you are amazing, all of your guests are amazing. THANK YOU.
My life has been changed by ketogenic. It is amazing for bipolar disorder. I think research should go into neurological ketones effects that ketones have on Bipolar disorder. Now that my brain is using ketones and not carbs its like I was putting the wrong type of gas in my car.
Fast Keto Prime I'm going to subscribe to your channel. Thanks for sharing this info!
I would like to see a debate/fact finding between Rich Roll and Mark Sisson. Because one of the two is either lying or a fraud.
@Charlie Dhaliwal that's not what Sisson is saying. He's talking as if what he says is fact. Not an opinion
I feel exactly the same! except im eating raw animal products now too..and the bacteria are all partying now and the brain is saying thank you. Just level headlessness and control, and bliss, zero depression and its like i got a valve now to manage the emotions.... it's to do with the gut flora, the bacterial balance and healthy hormone production.
I think ketones is good for the brain. I used to be on anti depressants before. Don't need them anymore.
I love that Mark talks about metabolic flexibility. Many in the keto space think it needs to be ketosis 24/7/365. I like the idea of training my body to be able to easily use both fuel sources, so I go in and out of ketosis every so often
Hi Tom love the way you have brought back the text sub titles (ie Inside Quest) on the screen together with the full key points below. Once again you leading the pack. HEALTH THEORY is going to be huge
On ket & IF the last year and a half and lost 45 lbs without starving myself and more leaner than ever before... ketoIF for life!!
The Dedicated Learners! YES!!
Same here!! Keto and IF for 15 months now. I've had cancer two times - in 2003 and 2005 and I'm *never* going to get it, or other major health problems and chronic inflammation/joint pain again, thanks to *keto* and *IF*
I have tons of energy, and never felt or looked this good since my early 20s and I just turned 50.
Keto and IF for Life! ✌💗💫😎
God bless you.. wish you the best and glad we are taking our health back. This knowledge has to hit critical mass or else big pharma will continue to raking it in while people get sicker!!!!
Awesome man.. great to hear your success in your health!!
Kudos. You earned it.
Why people think we can have heart attack on fat?
This guy is telling the truth, the effects of a ketogenic diet are absolutely life altering. More energy, more clarity, more focus. I didn’t think this was possible going into middle age. I always thought you’d just feel tired as part of every normal day. After getting on this diet, my energy is better at 48 than I had at 20. This is fantastic info, believe every word. I’ve lost 20 pounds , am only at 12% body fat, and can run circles around my teenage kids. It’s all about the fuel going into the body. Get fat adapted!
A huge fan of Mark and now Tom. Emotionally and Mentally I am ready for this journey and am looking forward to both building my character as well as my body and spirit! Being a late comer I am ready for the back half of my life to be my best. God Bless Mark, Tom, and Dr. Sten Ekberg .
It's difficult at the beginning but so worth the process. I have lost 35 pounds, and the meals are delicious.
My wrists too! I feel amazing and I'm 7 weeks in....all positive. Lots of trying to explain to and convince friends in the beginning, but finally realized, who cares if they don't fully understand. Great interview (as always) Thanks for being awesome @tombilyeu
Jamie Young got wrist problems myself, did keto help?
Hi. Still on keto?
Lost 115 pounds since March 15th on Keto. It's great.

Wow congratulations! I’m doing keto I have falling off so many times! I recently started keto again and I still struggle with the sugar cravings. I’m so upset about.
Tell a few pointers! Thank you!
@@mariamunguia8863 for me fasting, both intermittent and extended, has transformed my relationship with food. I have a pretty serious sugar addiction, quitting smoking has been easy in comparison. Fasting has really helped. Look up Dr. Fung
Not surprising keto is a starvation diet. th-cam.com/video/CT8K6NcAigo/w-d-xo.html
@@mariamunguia8863 Any time you fall off the wagon, get back on right away. Forget the slip, just get back on. Tell yourself "here I am again" and then do it. You'll have slips and bumps, but get back on. Write yourself a big note, hang it on your fridge "Get back on!" It's simple, just get back on.
@@TB1M1 You decide how much you want to eat. Don't starve yourself, eat enough to be 80% full. If you overeat, start to watch again at the next meal.
Thank you Tom for Impact Health Theory. Is amazing unlike any other show. You've provided valuable information & is so easy to understand.
Thank-you! Tom for your Fantastic Show!! You Guys Are Very INTELLIGENT and Spot On!!!
I'm fairly sure my body has finally switched to ketones as of this week or last. I stopped drinking beer and wine for Lent (Catholic). I started a true Ketogenic diet in earnest mid last month (Feb 2018). Down 5 lbs. I'm getting the interrupted sleep and urinating more. Feeling a little strange in the morning but these symptoms will not deter me. The weight loss is so worth it. I have used LCHF diets in the past with some success but I'm much more knowledgeable now thanks to the access to channels like this one...Thanks y'all.
Awesome! Glad you're having success!
Hi. Are you still doing keto? And feeling good? I am struggling with it. So like to hear some experiences. Thanks!
Awesome interview! Read his book Primal Endurance! This guy knows what he is talking about. Tom you are the best! Thank you for continuing to bring the best interviews and sharing it with us.
I'm on the keto diet and when I was eating carbs I was always hungry. So it wasn't a case of me choosing when I wanted to eat like a parent looks after a child but my body being so hangry and aggressive that I was a slave to food and I was forced and controlled by my body. When you do Keto your cravings go completely and you have the power.
I've tried and failed at keto SO many times till I tried it when I lived alone, away from my toxic family. I'm more in shock everyday about what I'm achieving and capable of. I've not told anyone. Just done it. Naturally progressed into keto and IF. I'm no longer ruled by food. I can eat once a day and feel grateful. I'm losing weight everyday. Feel amazing. I ran today. Actually ran. When two weeks ago i couldn't even jog. Insane.
Amazing. Keep going.
@ thank you so much.
I've not had your success whilst alone consistently and I feel such a failure. I'm happy for you though.
@@tatenadeau538 you're NOT a failure. At all. Never. Never think that of yourself. I'm sure you're doing your best and things will fall into place when the time is right.
Tom, you are the best interviewer. You let the guest talk. That's what interviews are for. Thank you for being respectful and giving guests a platform to speak.
My grandmother died of hardening of the arteries in 1986. i havent really used much salt since then. not even in cooking. obesity is familial, as is heart disease, stroke and diabetes. but hey. As a baby boomer, i did the basic canadian food guide which was similar to the american one. like a sheep i never questioned it. Fast forward: six years ago it was suggested by my doc that i give up salt. it didnt really help much. but exercise did. so did soups. Again: three years ago i was put on hbp meds, later on water pills too. my blood pressure was 205/100ish! it came from eating all the wrong foods due to work hours. This is how I went from being a college basketball/badminton/competitive swim athlete to over 260 pounds at the last doc appointment in January. my a1c was 7.5. i just started Keto lazily about three weeks ago. It didnt take long for me to get more serious though. As a result: I havent been "able" to take my blood pressure meds or water retention pills for about five days now, since i finished my first 3 day fast (which wasnt easy or fun but it sure changed things somehow). My blood glucose was so low i was a bit worried sometimes too. It was in the 3.2-4.6 range for over a week. now its a bit higher because im trying to figure out veggies and nuts. and surprise! im even eating salt, which will take some getting used to. I'll figure myself out. But so far it's been great! At least I know that the struggles are for the right results! and i love a good challenge! But i hate the fact that my grandmother and my mother died so prematurely at 73, due to heart disease and stroke. how can we live in a world where people dont care about that...
Keep an eye on those electrolytes and find yourself a good doctor that supports Keto and has a lot of experience treating keto patients. Good luck!
A few years back I went full keto because I noticed some inflammation in my ankles and wrists. I realized I couldn’t do a high carb lifestyle anymore despite being really active. I went full keto and felt amazing and performed better than I ever have before. I even used to run Spartan races (Sprint, Super) completely fasted a whole day before. Then after a move two years ago, decided to work on my overall strength and went back to high carb and had a pretty successful bulking cycle. Now about a month into keto and my body actually went into keto fairly quickly with no keto flu or anything. It’s like my body was ready to be fat adapted again or something idk
Yes my mircobiom has changed 5yrs keto this coming October plus I'll be 55 next week.Great interview!
Can i just say u look amazing
Great info! Keto and IF have changed my life. No inflammation, better physique, clear head, and energy. Less time at the gym because I go with purpose to build muscle. Week 11 and I will never go back to sugar.
Hi Linn. Still doing keto? Curious because I am struggling on keto. And not feeling myself and relaxt. Also hair falling out. Just looking for experiences. It does help me for some other body issues though.. Thanks a lot
What a good host! You actually allow your guest to talk. Good job!
Thanks to the Keto diet I lost like a lot of weight. I lost 10 pounds, for some people that doesn't seem a lot, but for me was a huge achievement because that was something that I started doing just for curiosity. And later became part of my lifestyle.
I really loved this! Good insights and reminders of how the whole body really works.
I have a very sensitive gut and keto diet totally made the difference for me. I used to eat a lotof whey and also other grains but it doesn't suit me so well.
I used to eat so much sugar & other carbs and then I finally realized that exercise isn't going to make me look ripped so I just wanted change. I first tried palel, but as mentioned in this interview I also was afraid of fats. So I lost the sugar fat & a bit of weight but it didn't make me feel so good.
I used to be very wary of keto diet since I had heard a lot of negative from it but did some research and figured that it doesn't cost anything to try it out. At the time I couldn't transit straight to keto foods because I had somuch other stuff left so I had to make the transition smooth. Thankfully I did since I never got the keto flu and the transition was quite easy.
I hope this new podcast will open people's minds about health.
I would love to see an interview about the importance of gut health. After I got mine in better shape I have been so much more happy and energized.
I hope in the future people will come to realize more that the fats aren't the enemy.
Really interesting & I will read up on this some more. Started a keto diet about 5 weeks ago and certainly feel much better (less, or rather no, bloating now and more energy). Wasn't sure how sustainable it would be..will read Mark's links & find out. Thanks Tom B!
I have followed Mark Sisson for almost 10 years through his Daily Apple blog. Spent thousands on primal products over the years. The problem is, if you have genetic bad luck such as APOe4 this kind of low carb high fat diet will highly increase your risk for Cardiovascular disease and Alzheimer’s. Please be very careful and think long term. I know how it feels to be part of the keto and paleo “tribe”...been there since the beginning, but now I have totally revamped my diet and lifestyle and found my real groove.
This is such a great one-on-one discussion about keto. One of the best conversations on the topic I've seen/heard so far. 👏👏👍
I've been living a keto and IF (intermittent fasting) lifestyle for 15 months now and never felt or looked better, and I just turned 50.
I will do this forever, as I'm also a two-time cancer survivor and also living with chronic kidney disease, fibromyalgia etc.
Keto & IF has cured me of pain, inflammation, disease etc and I'm a die hard fan of this for LIFE! 💪
Hi. Are you still feeling good on keto? hope to hear.
I really appreciate your efforts Tom. Keep going. Thank you very much to you and your entire team.
You guys saved my life. I was vegan and got very sick. Now my blood work is great.
Mark Sisson was 65 at the time of filming this interview. He is 67 in 2020. Marvelous health and body.
Really and truly a game changer. It has the power to influence the mind. Everything said in this video has transpired. Really living, not missing out on anything and making progress in life. I look and feel better than I did in my 20's, and I am in my 40's.
I am transitioning from being a sugar addict, to a keto diet. I am fighting myself constantly to accomplish my goal, but I know I need to do it for myself to thrive. I am wanting how to avoid keto flu, so my coworkers do not suffer my wrath lol. I have used limited sun exposure to keep my cystic acne gone and cannot wait to get joint pain and sleep issues addressed. This is one of the most helpful videos I have seen since following you. Thanks!
Keto is just the first step. The key is to become keto-adapted
Then whole food plant based
Don't you know that there are vegans that follow this lifestyle? Anyways
You can be vegan and keto-adapted. It's not even that hard really...
Priyanka Marka How?
same way as keto with meat... eat the exact same macro ratios
I had to stop the video and say that I love the new feature, like a table of content, love your work ! Drive on brotha!!
I did Tim Ferriss’s Slow Carb diet for two weeks before starting keto. I switched because I was learning more about keto and IF, and realized that was the way to go. I had no problem with the change. No keto flu at all. I think possibly the changeover was easy because I’d already quit sugar and flour for two weeks before starting keto.
I've lost 74 lbs I'm 24 weeks doing Keto!! I'm real life success. Was carb and sugar addicted badly!!!!! I'm no superman. It's been MUCH easier than I expected. I'm not good at diets at all. Keto is just "a way to eat" and I dont feel like I'm on a "diet". We all choose to eat things. Sugar is literally and addictive low grade DRUG.
Keto has changed our hunger and focus so, so much. I never ever thought as a low-calorie dieter that I could ever have cheese again, let alone that I wouldn't want to eat every second of every day.
Excellent, excellent, EXCELLENT video. Superb information and just what we need to hear in America. Combining Keto with intermittent fasting has changed my life and my wife’s life for the better. The gains and benefits appear to be exponential. Let’s do this everybody. America can only get better if we get healthier.
4 weeks into my Keto journey, 23 pounds down and down and counting.
Can we get Dr Jason Fung and Dr Ken Berry on Health Theory?? 🙏🙏🙏
I’ve just started keto , but took numerous days of no processed foods & gradually lowering carbs before going into starting keto ..
only 2-3 days in rt now but thus far minimal keto flu symptoms..yay 😁 👏
I have LMNT electrolytes pks that I drink 1-2 per day so feel this has helped !!
Tom, when it comes to the keto diet and the modified relationship with hunger, I look at it primarily as a weakened hunger pang without any of the hangry effects that a low blood sugar reading in a person who is glucose dependent. Because of this, you feel one, weakened sensation and I think "oh I'm feeling a hunger pang," which is so weak, I can choose to ignore it if I want and it goes away shortly thereafter, or I can entertain it but its a manageable feeling. When you have ALL of the side effects traditionally associated with hunger, all at the same time, is when people will often grab for whatever they crave or is close at hand - ANYTHING TO EAT RIGHT NOW.
When you feel the benefits of more lucid thinking, and a more fluid, less bloated (lower water retention) more pain free body, that is also a secondary form of encouragement to keep on going.
This definitely makes me rethink trying Keto again. Specially the way my joints have been feeling lately...
Like Mark says , once you are adapted you can have more carbs without the grains of course. Like him, finger pain and other joint pain and stomach aches. However not when giving up grains and enjoying healthy fats
Daniel Miller forgive my ignorance but without grains mean? Like what would be an example of foods with grains and without? Thanks
No grains means no rice, wheat, oats, etc. In the end, you have to get to a no sugar state. Grains have lots of sugar as does most processed food. Also, give up or reduce dairy. This really helped alleviate my joint pains.
booshmanstaff within 2 weeks my arthritis was pain was history. And for someone with cronic back pain Im bouncing out of bed in the morning. I love my food. Im far more inventive with my meal planning than I ever was. Every day is a good day now.
Daniel Miller do you know if you could eat dark chocolate on keto?
Mark Sisson is actually 400 years old. He only looks 50.
MarkOfTheNorth 😂
Hehe you’re funny!😁
Why? Because he wears a v-neck shirt and 5-finger shoes? Cmon.
Well.......60 comon
Mark Sisson looks in his 60's, not 50's. I was actually going to say he looks age 65,… and he actually is age 65 in this clip. His birthday is July, 1953.
OH!! LOVE IT!! THANK YOU TOM!! I AM ACTUALLY ON KETO! WEEK 6!! LOVE IT SO FAR!
LOVE YOU GUYS!! Obsessed with bettering my self inside out
Hi. Are you still feeling good on keto?
Regardless of how much weight I end up losing or not losing, the best thing is not being hungry all the time! I've gone from a sugar addict to having no cravings or hunger. I'm into my third week now and I've started eating one meal a day, all pretty easily and without any slip-ups. I've been on many kinds of diets before but never imagined I could do intermittent fasting.
Marsha Alison soon you’ll be able to eat as often as a lion!
Hi. Are you still feeling good on keto?
I cut caffeine, sugar, and drastically reduced carbs. Also having been lucky to never have liked breakfast all my life, it was easy to eliminate it. Went to one meal a day within a week. I feel better already and continue to educate myself on paleo, keto ,carnivore diets. Starting walking one hour a day with a plan to double it when soreness subsides. One hour in the morning, and one in the evening. Never going back.
Changed my life th-cam.com/users/postUgkxIUm04tAgSzlAhCWEr7VlRptRAMVsjeAC I will never eat the same ever again. "Unless you physically trip and your face lands in a box of donuts, there is no such thing as a 'slip'." Get that mind set and you'll win again and again.
Thank you. Your consistency is abundantly valuable... Thank you.
Awesome! Thank you! Glad you dig it.
I would have lover to hear more about how keto improves cognitive function. I'm so glad to learn about the IBS factors. Such useful information.
OMG, KETO! Perfect start to the health series!
TOM, great content and great idea to segregate health from the other super content that u create for us!
You are changing my life with each interview. THANK YOU! 🙏
I was carrying a dead body for a long time, abusing steroids, overeating, oversexed, overworked, overstressed, I was looking muscular like a model outside but full of insecurities and with a big trauma from my childhood related with my sexuality and my poor thinking and I had lack of mobility and flexibility, I was literally dying inside, I wasn't aware of it until my body started to give me signs, a lot of pain and inflammation and a big mess with my hormonal balance,intuitively I went from one extreme to another one, became vegan for a period of time to detox my body and I lost all the gains from the steroids, to realize that my biggest enemy was my ego the created lust in my mind , a lot of emotional pain that i was avioding pursuing pleasure rushing to my death because my mom was dying from cancer started to release slowly down, and my healing process began doing meditation and yoga, now I have recover my vitality and my health, and have a wonderful relationship with my husband, I feel happier every day doing a ketogenic diet and intermittent fasting has helped me to get to this point. I'm more flexible, leaner and I have developed a lot of body control 🙏🤸♂️🧘♂️🏋️♂️🚴♂️ I overcame my old self that one was driven by fear and lust and I'm grateful for my past. Now I'm being driven by love and inspiration ❤🙏🙌💪
Soooooo timely! My son in-law has been in and out of the hospital with pancreatitis. Lots of pain and worry of course! I just shared this vid with them. I hope they watch and apply. If not I got a ton of great information! Thanks again for another great guest!! ❤️❤️❤️
