You said it correctly. People who listen to these idiots will be obsessed with food and when to eat it. Food will become their god. They will live in a restricted world all consumed by food. Just eat a balanced diet
@@xoanwahnIm unfollowing a bunch of influencers. Back to intuitive eating. Ive been praying about find peace with food again. Diet culture is obsessed
This is so true! After I was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease, I quit all of my meds and went on an All-Poop diet. I call it the Crapivore diet. I also spend $350 a month on Dr. Shartadino's poop supplements. I no longer enjoy eating but I feel so much better!
Carnivore is so overrated. Literally everyone I talk to has nothing negative to say. There’s so many cultists and zealots. I’m sure they exist as vegans as well but they’re usually not so outspoken.
@@C0d0pspeople used to complain on how annoying vegans were. Well nowdays I don't see any vegans, but I always see annoying carnivores promoting their diet.
I like how he followed an Essay template too, gave intro, had body, tied conclusion to intro and gave his opinion. This guy is busy enough, gives great content at a 3rd grade level so we can understand.
I don't think they're killing them. Keto does seem to help negate hunger for many people and get junk food out the window, and get enough protein to stave off as much muscle loss as possible. But it's maybe not the ideal solution, just seems to get a lot of unhealthy people to a healthier place, no matter if it's not the healthiest diet.
Their rants has entertainment value! Nothing better than a DeLauer video with "commercial-like" transitions of people eating the specific foods he's ranting about.
I really appreciate this video. It's easy to feel like whatever you're doing with diet and exercise is wrong because of so many "influencers" have contradictory data. I will say, I've done the carnivore and animal based thing and lost 17 pounds in two weeks and felt amazing. There are vegetables that give me bowel issues and gut pain after I eat them. For example, even though I love squash and zucchini, I've gotten extremely sick for two days after eating them. So I do stay away from those because of consistent problems when eating them. But this video is spot on and I'm glad you said what you did!
Omg,they're all money grabbing idiots, I kind of figured this out awhile ago.Way too much controversy, some of the things that I've read,just shock me because it's just so ridiculous! Thankyou for another great video, Layne!😊
0 seconds ago Just wanna say thanks bro. Last year I decided to lose weight and I was pretty overwhelmed with all the diet info out there. I lost around 90 pounds without any crazy ass dieting and without worrying so much about enjoying certain foods in moderation. I learned a lot from your content. You the man.
Thank you so much for making this video because so many of these influencers show up on my recommended list. Thank you for the education on what to filter out!
There used to be a common saying... "Believe none of what you hear and only half of what you see". Basically trust no one and do your research. Lots of free or close to free online courses that teach how to read a research paper if someone doesnt know.
Thanks Layne, you're right. I've seen lots, and this describes exactly what occurs in most of them. Opinions, guessing, speculation, and sheer BS. But after a while we begin to know which influencers to avoid. Hopefully they will disappear from TH-cam.
The influencers that prop up food ideology as if it is scientifically sound is really irritating. Science requires the utmost attempt at impartiality. Instead, what many of these influencers do, is just engage in confirmation bias. It amounts to dogma.
“Food ideology” is such a perfect word for it. I’m not expert, but I’ve read/watched a lot about the psychology of cults and many modern/contemporary examples of it, and it’s frightening how similar the two end up looking.
I do that--freeze the video, open a new tab, and google the name of the study. I don't always read the entire thing, but at the very least I check the abstract and conclusion, especially after videos by Greger, Taubes, Ludwig, and what's his name, the "pegan" guy, Hyman, and any other reductionist that I happen upon. I'm especially fond of CIM v. CICO rants. Then I look up the same topic and check Hall, Guyenet, and even Quackwatch for the super-reductionists. Nice one, Layne.
What's CIM? And yeah, frequently you'll find the conclusion the researchers drew is entirely different than the conclusion the person citing the study is trying to draw. Typically, a person will yell "X is true, this study shows it!" and the conclusion of the study just reads "There appears to be a correlation X which may warrant further research as a topic of interest."
It's just another way for these self absorbed clowns to stroke their ego. They feel it makes them look smart to the ignorant people that listen to them. I love how you expose their lies and deception.
This way of thinking is so well presented to sound very convincing to people trying to improve their health and the big words and "studies" sound intelligent. F**** up my head because I got conned into thinking they were right. So glad I am finding more and more actual science believing people. Thank you! I haven't had spinach in 5 years because OxAlAtEs 🤦♀
Oh, my gosh, Layne, an excellent, very important video. One of your best ever.. Explaining how the same template is used to support whatever their bias is.
Dr, Greger is constantly about human outcome data. And human outcome data confirms, again and again, that eating mostly plants is the healthiest for longevity and health.
Thank you Layne. You are the few of the people left that I trust. Because of your videos it clicked in my mind and I started losing weight. Thanks to what??? Tah dah dah dah ...Calorie deficit 😃
Unfortunately niche views fuels sensationalism, gets YT views and books sold which you later admit was a scam and people adore you as a hero for deceiving them and changing your beliefs. Socrates had the same issue with this rhetoric in his day and look where that got him. Great Vid.
Hi Layne. I think I commented this on another video, but would love to see a video of you breaking down Bryan Johnson's diet. He has recently put out a line of nutritional products. I would love to see a collaboration between the two of you if that's even possible and Bryan's main doctor, Oliver Zolman. I really appreciate your channel!
You do have the option to not use social media at all... I don't use it and I have no idea what these influencers are doing or saying. I follow my own rules based on common sense and past experience and I'm doing fine. I wish more people would quit listening to people and start listening to themselves.
@@evec2022 People don't have a good track record when they listen to themselves. Your common sense, by its own definition, isn't just yours, it's from a common source. If you skip the fads and influencers your common sense is most likely based on local guidelines for standard diets which are either traditional, or from reliable authorities. You shouldn't forget the reason these influencers are so very wrong, *is* because they are listening to themselves and not to anyone reliable.
@@Melesniannon No, I believe the reason these influencers are so very wrong is that they spew their nonsense to other people. Listening to yourself with some guiding principles is not wrong. We may not all agree on what to eat but we all know that moving more is better. Just because people's track record for doing what's right after listening to themselves isn't great doesn't mean that listening to ourselves is not the right thing to do. As it stands, not only are people not listening to themselves, but they are listening to others. That's skewing their view on what is right. At least if they simply didn't act on what they knew was best for them, there is still a chance in doing it right one day. There are 2 things that we can all agree on: eat more vegetables and be more active. If we did nothing else than those two things, everyone would be just fine.
@@evec2022 Actually when an action consequently leads to poor consequences, that is exactly the indication that it is not the right thing to do. It's weird that you're fine applying that to the notion of "listening to other people" but not to "listening to yourself". Your final conclusion is equally awkward, like eating more vegetables and being more active is going to solve all medical problems in the world. It's not bad advice barring that we should also question how much is too much; generally people will benefit from more of both because they are deficient in both. However it is not a miracle by which "everyone would be just fine".
@@Melesniannon It's not that people aren't listening to themselves. It's that they aren't acting on what their body is telling them. That doesn't make "listening to your body" a bad thing, it makes "not listening to your body" a bad thing. Just because *some* Americans can't do it doesn't mean that it's a bad thing to do. Just look at the rest of the planet.
I agree with all of this, and great points. I don't even think the people that post this information really care about anything except likes, views, and follows. They aren't passionate about it. They aren't teachers. They have barely a surface level of understanding and 99% of their posts are copy/paste from some other clip they saw; it's just a new trend they need to "hop on" and produce their content. They have been conditioned to believe that their "followers" need to hear it from THEM. So, anything to make "content" is what they'll do. If the world doesn't hear from them today, how will anyone ever get on with their lives? This is what an influencer thinks. So, they churn out hyperbole bullshit and create this crazy-ass perception that everything they do for themselves is life-changing. It isn't. Show me where everyone's life absolutely changed because they switched their glute routine. You can't. But the influencer factory will start a trend and unfortunately gullible people will fall for it. It's all this exaggerated utopia they think they live in and we're all here to consume. The internet is a powerful tool, but I really wish we didn't give just anyone a voice. Sadly, the flood gates are wide open and there's no going back. I think the point made in this video about doing your own research before making a decision is step #1.
Love it Dr. Norton, thanks for making such a great video. After watching Dr. Mikes Podcast Episode I just had subscribe. Love the way you make your videos! Many greetings from the lab bench side :-) I am learning alot from you on how to communicate science better to the public! Looking forward for more great videos! Keep this amazing work!
As a finance type, I’d be very happy with a mutual fund in which stock outcomes can be inversely related. The finance concept it the stock’s beta and a fund comprised of stocks with both positive and negative betas is a great fund over the longer term.
What matters most is that a study, and information in general, is only as good as those rationalizing the data. Hence, it’s rather easy to see in places like LinkedIn that there are millions of “professionals” out there that are incompetent in their ability to rationalize data.
That was bracing. I did actually do that once - freeze frame, track down the study read it and quoted back the passage the influencer was saying backed him up. It clearly said the exact opposite. He’s never cited that study again. Small wins.

Fitness Influencing is a business and it's product is content, you have to put out content to get paid and that means finding things to demonize or glorify, as, unfortunately, that is what gets clicks.
Great video. Dr Gil Carvalho ( Nutrition Made Simple) is an exception to the norm. He is highly skilled in non biased interpretation of the totality of research.
All I heard was consume copious amounts of McDonald's French Fries. I am now immortal.
Literally was eating McDonald's fries while watching this 😂

But only if you cover it in poop.

Am an eating disorder therapist who is also health conscious and I can confirm this is accurate.

But this was on point 100%%%

Thank you. Do my best
The influencers are harming and killing those who buy into their b.s, Thank you for being educated enough to teach us the truth.
The irony.
lol what the hell do you think Layne is? An influencer
@@natlovell122A nutritionist, which is more than the likes of hacks like Dr Berg and co.
I don't think they're killing them. Keto does seem to help negate hunger for many people and get junk food out the window, and get enough protein to stave off as much muscle loss as possible. But it's maybe not the ideal solution, just seems to get a lot of unhealthy people to a healthier place, no matter if it's not the healthiest diet.
That's the reductionist approach to nutrition to see food as an individual mechanism. The whole food is greater than the sum of its parts.
Damn I love this guy. Calling out BS and scammers and educating people with fact based information. Layne you’re the real hero, keep this up! ❤️
Fit influencers: "eat nothing"
Also influencers "eat everything"
Enter Layne to destroy influencers.

Brilliant, Layne. Thank you for always fighting the good fight.
Thanks so much for taking the time to demystify and clarify scientific research, Layne!
It's not that difficult, most people just don't want to tale the time for themselves to do it.
