Dr. Ben is the author of a book I frequently recommend, called Why We Get Sick.
It can be quite challenging for many women to maintain a healthy weight and good metabolic health after about forty years of age. Just about all of our fat cells are made during childhood and puberty, and when we reach our sixties or seventies, the number of our fat cells starts to decline. Insulin plays a vital role in how fat cells can change and respond to sex hormones.
In this episode, Dr. Ben talks about insulin, fat cells, and sex hormones in women.
IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN:
• The role of insulin in terms of how fat cells can change and respond to sex hormones.
• How estrogens protect women against too much fat.
• Why your diet does not require carbohydrates even though some cells need glucose.
• The effects of seed oils and carbohydrates on insulin resistance.
• How digestion relates to insulin resistance and insulin instability.
• Vitamin D deficiency will contribute to insulin resistance.
• Why you need to know what your fasting insulin number is.

recently retired MD here. When I started to work in hospital I believed everything I had been taught. But just a few years in I realised that some things just don´t fit. During my 5 Months on cardiology I observed that cholesterol levels of heart attack patients were all over the place. Some high, some average, some really low. I think that was my first lightbulb moment about 30 years ago that there was something terrible wrong about medicine and what we are taught at universities. The last three years before retirement I worked on the C-departement and than it was obvious to me that our system is not about health. It is a mix of profit and politics.
This may be true but in the end plant based diet is the only diet proven to reverse coronary artery disease and making you a heart attack proof
Thank you for the honest inside view of the medical system.
Well you were a cog in that crooked drug dealing machine. I am also sure you got your profit
Medicine is a scam
@@scaramouche8244 Sure. All doctors are the same. Greedy and evil. Living with a mind that is just capable of thinking in stereotypes and generalisation certainly makes life easier. Bogeymen everywhere.
None of Bikman's talks which I heard so far is the same as the rest, and they are all saturated with important information that is new to me, despite that I have been interested about these things all my life, and all of the TH-cam channels and influencers which I heard so far.
People such as him are assets to TH-cam and humanity, and are very rare.
Ya he is amazing and gives the mechanisms behind his positions. Definitely one of the best in this arena.
As a former 10 + year vegetarian low fat dieter turned Animal based foods 3 years ago i Will Never go back to a plant based diet. Plant based made me weak and unhealthy over long term no matter what i tried. So 3 years ago i switched to animal based diet and within 3 months i was feeling a lot better and gaining weight and muscle back. Now after 3 + years i have my strength, health and muscle back ! Will never fall for the plant based diet BS again.
Glad you had the courage to change. Some people have died defending their vegetarian beliefs.

Perfect timing for this video! 2 of my favorite people!
I have been on insulin for 30 yrs I’m type 2. Since March 2023 I’ve been following keto. I have reduced my insulin from 130 units down to around 55 units a day. My fasting glucose from 154 to 115. A1c from 7.9 to 6.9. If I disconnect my insulin pump then my Avge glucose rises to 140. I’m not sure what to do keep taking insulin or disconnect from insulin and try continuing my journey of keto and exercise. I have borderline stage 3 fibrosis fatty liver so that is why I put myself on keto less than 30 carbs a day. Recently down to 20 carbs a day. Boy comp changes but no weight loss per say
You need to check with your doctor, you should not just stop these meds.
Zero carb is where you need to be .
Step by step
What is your c peptide? You could always ask to stop the pump and start using long acting and rapid acting insulin in pens. As a diabetic who has experienced DKA four times, I wouldn’t go off insulin but decrease it as your need slows down. I am basically in your boat, but never did the pump. I am down to around 25 units of insulin a day. My c peptide was 0.3.
Are you fasting for your liver and insulin resistance?
first of all, estrogen is not just a sex hormone. It influences every organ system
He's just the best 🙌
Great interview with one of my favs, Ben is amazing 🙌🏼.
My question is if I had a hysterectomy in 2019 and I’m 56 now how does this estrogen issue affect me now? I’m mostly carnivore and almost zero carbs and sugar but I do have my coffee with heavy cream everyday. My son makes espresso when I come home from work lol and he uses a little monk fruit in it 🙌🏼. How will this affect me having no estrogen without my female parts 😩. I had cancer and that’s why they did a complete hysterectomy. But I didn’t have to do chemo or any drugs afterwards. I feel amazing after being carnivore since end of November.
I am in the exact same situation and have the same question. Hopefully, we’ll get an answer.
@@ChristineRoy-ty7cg let’s hope so 🙏🏼.
Your ovaries and fat tissue producing also oestrogen. Your not going out of oestrogen without your uterus
@@anniepette9795 they took everything out!
I am on an estrogen blocker because of breast cancer...I wonder the same thing. I am currently having difficulty getting into and more importantly staying in ketosis. I am wondering if the blocking of estrogen is screwing me up? The body is amazing.@@laurengianna9944
Cynthia wonderful interview and conversation. I meet the neetest people following my friend Dr. B around. I admire your channel and content and now find myself an unrepentant subscriber to your channel. Thank you for being here. Mel
Benjamin Bikman...thank you is not enough for your extensive painstaking research and explanation to us!!¡!!!¡!!!¡!
We my sister is in it and says she is eating want ever now.
Me I take at 20 units , eat Ketovore and like mention my ill feeling stomach, which is not me I don’t usually feel that way, it stopped me from eating and then I got really weak and tired
I literally thought that I was my blood sugar got so low but I got dizzy
Now I forced myself every morning I eat protein I protein all day long. I’ve always loved protein. I’ve always had a lot of muscle, but menopause has really gotten to me.
I’m taking this to get back to where I wanna be. I’m going to the gym which I used to be an avid person but the past years when they stop the gym, I never got back.
That being said, time to take control . I will only use this to get where I need to be and I will go to hormone therapy into the gym. It’s only because I’ve always been so fit all my life until mother nature
And I don’t eat junk
look up Jay Feldman on youtube, if you don't have enough carbs then cortisone rises unnecessarily, and protein digestion leads to more unnecessary toxins that you don't need, like ammonia. Adding carbs prevents this.
@@book67891Jay Feldman is a bad source.
Don't listen to @book67891. Jay Feldman is a Plant-biased source of misinformation.
Yes, stress & sleep problems MY 😢. Get to sleep fine but wake up at 3 4,5am wide awake overthinking then have to be up for work. Financial stress, high rents, toxic work but aged 67 hard getting work,other prob...think I'm going to retire but can't afford to, alone scared weight gain
I have always wondered if cellulite which women have more of than men are linked with fat cells or estrogens?
I think our thinner skin plays a part too.
Great content and interview👍
Why do you think I ask a researcher?
Ever think about what really goes into blood pressure?
Insulin levels need to be apart of real health.
When researchers decide to think like this, medicine will go to the next level of health.
I have an A1c of 4.9 but I have high triglycerides. I had a stroke so I'm back on statin for lack of any other treatments, since I do not have hypertension. Go figure. I am also keto, so there is no blanket way of eating or living that applies to everyone.
I refuse to ever take a statin.
@@Anna-g3sThen, what alternative method do you recommend to lower triglycerides ?
fruit rises triglycerides is my experience
@@carolcole570 I eat healthy and walk a lot but regardless of numbers, I will never take statins. They are just a money grab for big pharma. The side effects are ridiculous and they can lead to dementia.
@@carol-annes5492 Triglycerides ??? Wow, that is a new thought ! I know that fruit is sugar. Et voil’a…….not for diabetics.
I am so happy I am beyond this craziness.
I just love this guy! 😊
If unrefined carbohydrate consumption was not part of our typical evolutionary diet, humans would not have a pancreas that produces insulin. Consumption of excessive refined carbohydrates, and artificially manufactured toxic seed oils, is likely the root cause of oxidative stress, damaged and dysfunctional mitochondria, insulin resistance, endothelial damage, and chronic disease.
Rubbish, Dr Cywes tried to induce liver toxicity by pumping livers with seed oils and no matter how much seed oil was pumped through the portal vein , livers wouldn't suffer any damage, when he switched to glucose/fructose though in no time livers became cirrhotic . Carnivores have pancreas, tigers , lions... meat and other protein stimulates a lot of insulin release from the pancreas.
Seed oils have really caused a lot of damage.
Insulin is not a carbohydrate digesting hormone. It is a blood glucose regulating and adipose storing hormone.
Let’s unpack this video.
When can I get off my thyroid meds after doing carnivore
I also hope for an answer to this question!
I’m carnivore of one month. Been on a thyroid medication since 2009. I have overloaded myself with so many YT videos to educate myself, and no one has come forward to say their carnivore diet allowed them to get off thyroid medication. There seems to be a few medications this lifestyle will help you eliminate, but it appears thyroid medication is not one of them. I hope I’m wrong.
I have been low carb 14 years now. My doctor only ever did the one test, the most useless.
But my morning body temperature was 94. My eyebrows were mostly gone. My forehead had grown and my hair had thinned.
It took 10 years but my morning body temperature went up to 98.6. The last 4 years of that with well water. No Floride.
My eyebrows came back. Still not as thick as I would like. My hair has thickened and my forehead is smaller.
I spent decades starving myself fat and sick on 1200 low fat, high fiber calories a day. So decades of bad eating to fix. While other issues healed fast, the thyroid takes time. But it will heal.
NOT until your Labs show your numbers within great range. Never ever do it without backup from Labs.
@@suzannereeves7768look on YT for Dr Ken Berry’s interview of Dr Brownstein (I think that’s his name). It’s about iodine. I’m in the same boat with you, doing carnivore/ketovore hypothyroid and wanting to not be tethered to medication.
This is pretty much unhelpful. Throwing around of a lot of terms that a common person doesn’t know and in the end, not being specific about what actions in terms of HOW and WHAT to eat should be followed. You can talk all you want about insulin, the whys and how it’s bad, but if you don’t give suggestions about how to eat to minimize excess insulin and improve insulin resistance then your not helping anyone.
Look in the prologue of Good Calories, Bad Calories. The old 1950s British diet works for most people. Food allergies could make a difference. In which case go carnivore for a few weeks and add back one food a week. Keep a diary.
Get all seed oils out of your diet.
Took way too long to get to the point!
😊❤
omg - if one more doc says menopause has to have value -no no no! We were never meant to live this long. Nature is happy to let us go, but unlike you Mr. Doctor, I'll not go without a fight.
There is no such thing as essential animal fat or animal protein
there is no such thing as essential plant fat or plant protein.
@@chuckleezodiac24 absolutely true ,only if you are going to live 10 years longer disease free
@@doddsalfa…I disagree, I’m living proof! 10 months of carnivore, beef fat tallow is the best! It is healing my inflictions of inflammatory symptoms + so much more! I was miserable eating bread, vegetables & fruit! I thank , God Almighty for creating the cow, pig, fish & chicken & wild animals that roam the mountain woods! (Venison) keep well!🥩👍🏻
@@lisahause8705 unfortunately that’s not true the bible is mostly vegan only after the flood god gave permission for eating meat during famine and talking about lard ,seeds oils are actually healthier according too science
@@lisahause8705 In the Genesis account, before the flood, there are no specific dietary laws outlined for humans. However, it is mentioned that humans and animals were initially herbivores: “And God said, ‘See, I have given you every herb yielding seed which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed-to you it shall be for food’” (Genesis 1:29). This suggests that the original diet of humans was plant-based.( Ask ai)
My new (to be old) dietician said to me on Monday this week, "You will die without carbs"! "You know your brain needs energy"! I am about to find out if I am going to be brain dead!
The brain uses fat for energy not carbs. Your dietician is not qualified to advise anyone.
congratz on starting your new (healthier) life
😂 love it. Your new (to be old) dietician doesn't deserve your time and money.
Wow, say goodbye to your braindead RD.
New Flash to your dietitian: you will die with or without carbs. Might as well live as long and healthy as you can. Without is the way to go.
Out of matrix is such a big responsibility. Everyone around you is poisoning themselves.
This. And they’re threatened by the fact that we’re not. It’s crazy-making.
Absolutely! And I'm surrounded by addicts!
My DO recommended I add soy to manage my menopausal symptoms and THEN when I was diagnosed with osteoporosis, he instantly wanted to start intravenous bisphosphates when I was 54 years old. I am still looking for the correct physician. Unfortunately I am two years into my journey and it is apparent that I need to do all my own research and guide my own health.
Go carnivore it’ll help
Yes!
It’s sad how many docs, don’t suggest that patients losing bone mass should take D3 and K2-7 together along with minerals including magnesium. Animal products tend to have the most bioavailable nutrients. eg. meats, egg yolks, seafood. Look for a good doc - a functional medicine physician. In the meantime try Dr Hyman’s Function Health lab tests. They’ll do comprehensive testing and give you the analysis of the tests; with appropriate ranges for values, that are not adjusted for a diseased population.
Only way to stop bone density decay and possibly reverse osteoporosis is weight bearing exercise....lifting weights actually fills in bone depth
Be your own physician.
I’m 100% carnivore. Loving life again. Lost 63 lbs, no pain, lots of energy!!
Your brain need fat to work correctly
Wacko.
@@donwinston now now that’s no way to talk about yourself
Don't you eat any veggies, but only meat? Isn't that type of diet only good for just so long. Your body needs other nutrients.
@@barbierodriguez4344 you can get all the nutrients you need from meat ..ruminate animals have digestive systems that are designed to break down the fiber & material of plants & absorb the nutrients which in turn go straight into their meat .Carnivores don’t have to supplement like vegans do & there and may that have been on it long term look into it it’ll make sense
read "Metabolical" by Dr. Lustig
I was keto, then I was carnivore, I wasn’t able to stick to either one of them completely, so now i’m ketovore it’s much easier to do and it’s worked well with my T2. ❤️🇨🇦
Hi, Canadian here too. I'm leaning towards Ketovore too. But what does exactly entail that diet? Green salads or fermented vegetables and protein?
@@dominusstyx Dr Berry explained it as very low carb carnivore with a very small amount of low carb veg or fruit. For those who are almost exclusively carnivore but want to eat a small amount of plant based food. One way of thinking about it is mostly carnivore keto diet.
@@KeepingItReal321 Thank you.
I now know why liposuction is not good for overweight people (fat cells/count/progression)… I always wondered why… thank you!
All the top docs in this space, dr.s Anthony, Shawn,Ken teaches us that we get all the glucose we need in exactly the right amount from the liver producing it. Gluconeogenesis. The brain prefers to run on ketones not carbs.
I often am in wonder at the plant based push that seems to have suddenly arisen in stores. Almost over night, my grocery stores and even general merchandise stores devote entire walls to plant based processed products Initially I was thinking it was mostly in response to demand and profits but also consider maybe its by design to keep us on the SAD way of eating.
How many different entities are paying for this plant based push? Its value is being misrepresented as the best way to reverse Type2Diabetes is to fix its root cause...and they gaslight populations by saying Insulin Resistance is the root cause. These "teams" are offering free guides and training on plant based reversal of the "root cause." What a shameless lie.
they're just out to make money. the Food-Medico-Pharma Industrial Complex doesn't need to surreptitiously conspire in sinister schemes. the humans do it to themselves.
Adventist cult food industry is now part of the WEF, the virtue signaling Nazis reimagined. They have an ugenics program. They want to half the world population. And we are the ones they want to get rid of.
Bill Gates and WHO promote vegan lifestyle for profit.
The vegetarian agenda in the US has existed since the 1800s with the Seventh Day Adventists and their influence over the big cereal companies (Kellogg's, General Mills, Pos) and their founding of the Dietitics Association, bringing their vegetarian bias to the most important nutrition organizations. And now we also have high level vegetarians that don't realize that vegetarianism is not better for animals (millions of animals are killed to maintain the huge monocrops, animal habitats are reduce and poisoned). The most ethical way to eat for an animal loving person is to just buy meat from regenerative farms where animals are fed grass and the livestock nourish the soil that allow the grass to grow. One cow per year can feed a person while thousands of animals are killed to keep a vegetarian alive
The minimum required daily amount of carbohydrates? Zero.
Stupid statement.
so what? 8 billion humans are not going to stop eating carbs.
Yes, a large percentage of people will always be fat and sickly @@chuckleezodiac24
You have a reference?
I haven't had one in over three years.@@andreafong9952
The purpose of processed foods seems to have been a factor in allowing more women in the workforce for longer hours.
And even tho more people in the workforce are there longer they are sicker and the expectation for time off to be sick cannot be allowed at all because it’d be too much loss for employers. They lose too much money.
The System is the problem..and not interested at all in public health. Imagine not caring if your workforce is becoming too fat and disabled to benefit the greed up top.
Huh? You contradict yourself, you've to make up your mind, whose fault it is. I'll tell you; it's no one's.
We're responsible for ourselves. Everything else is BS and excuses.
@@dominusstyx I don’t care to defend the corrupt competitive winner take all system that is marching us toward extinction as a species. There’s a better way. 🫤
The labor pool will turn over or internationalize. The important public dynamic for industry is consumption.
@@dominusstyxNo contradiction if you read and comprehend. Your simpleminded libertarianism prevents this from occurring.
Maybe the need for vitamin D is to help the liver work better and therefore insulin resistance can be helped??
I am very happy being post menopause. Life is great. So much freedom.
No longer worried about unwanted pregnancy is a good thing. Having a child that I might not live to raise would be awful. Time for freedom, less worries, new goals and dreams. Love yah, Dr. B. Just got your first book. Watching all your videos. Makes me want to major in biochemistry again. Not too late yet.
Although I lost my eldest son 8 years ago, he was 24 yrs old. I am so glad I had kids. My youngest and only child now makes me so proud. If you bring them up right it’s all good. He has helped me so much.
Thank you - excellent video!
I'm 65 years old now, but when I was around 51, and post-menopause -at 50, I started eating soy ice cream daily (UGGH -I've learned a lot since then) - after a while, I began to develop symptoms of getting my period - swollen breasts & crampy lower abdomen! I suspected the soy was the culprit, stopped it and within a couple of weeks, those symptoms went away -never to return. Since then, I have avoided soy like the plague but experienced the beginnings of those symptoms by frequently eating flax (in Mary's Gone Crackers)... Now I avoid soy, flax, chickpeas & the big phytoestrogen-containing foods. For what it's worth, I no longer eat sugar or any refined, packaged crap - and stick to a clean, whole-food omnivore diet. I have a very mild case of RA and am trying to figure out what might make things worse - it's so confusing... lectins, phytates, oxalates... yikes!
You can go carnivore for a few weeks until the RA symptoms subside and then start adding in your plant foods slowly to see which you react to.
I have been on carnivore for 6 years and I only started because my wife reacted badly to some foods. We tried keto then carnivore and we were only planning to do it for a month and it is now a life-long health journey for us.
I hope you find what makes you feel better.
@@Iconoclassic thank you - I'm sort of headed in that direction by eliminating many things. :)
Hollo for East Tx +++ Go Carnivore for Life!
👍 I hope you know that Klaus Schwab, Bill Gates, John Kerry and their elite friends want us to eat bugs. We're supposed to save the plant from cow farts while they fly around in private jets and eat gourmet meals. Screw those guys.
I really enjoyed this podcast. I came to listen to Dr. Bikman but Cynthia Thurlow sounds like she has her head on straight :)
the SAD (standard american diet) is truly sad!!
Loved this podcast
Great questions !!
Two of my fav people to listen to on insulin , fasting , health
I make brown butter bites in silicone candy molds and take a couple before going to bed.
I wouldn’t be using silicone because they’re an endocrine disrupters in the long run
Ohhhhhh! How do you do that??
Line your cookie sheet with unbleached parchment paper then when the butter is hard, cut up and don't worry about the "cuteness" of the candy mold.❤
Hi Cynthia, FANTASTIC post, my fasting bloods 6.4 norm thin small frame 67F, under chronic stress for 3 yrs work toxic admin/health low wages,looking for other jobs on my own high rents yet not hungry at all, no processed no junk no alcohol no snacks whey protein shakes with handful blueberries cacao milk, handful mixed nuts afternoon lots water grilled chicken veg dinner green tea yet 10kilo weight gain, feel terrible cholesterol up 7.1 my Dad high cholesterol & sits, Dr wants me on statins I refused, saw what Lipitor did to my Dad, Dr wasn't happy with me. What else would you kindly suggest I do, so frustrating. Thk u kindly from Australia 🇦🇺
Interesting about the SARMs mentioned at the end of the video.
It would also be great if more research focused on cortisol as well. Cortisol is often demonized, but too much or too little has serious consequences. Having had adrenal disease serious enough to warrant a total adrenalectomy, I know how important cortisol is in its effects on insulin, glucose, the immune system and overall metabolic health. Thanks for a fantastic and informative video.
I have seen these guys touting drinking cartons of raw pasteurized egg whites emphasizing that it is FAT FREE and carb free. But like you said in here, nature puts protein and fat together. So is drinking pure protein really a good thing?
I wouldn't be doing that.
The key is to have plenty of fat and protein and whole eggs are valuable.
I've listening to several of these doctors and others, including Anthony Chaffee and I'm looking for the common themes and statements.
Those are the factors I'm finding most useful. ❤😊🌿
How can it be raw and pasteurised?
Just eat a salad with your steak best of both worlds. Problem solved.
balanced diets ain't sexy, player. you need to inflame Tribal Diet Warfare in order to gain cult followings.
If tested for vitamin D, what is the optimal level (female). Edit: What is considered low?
A lot higher than what is normal, in range for a lot of population. Talk to your practitioner, but typically over 50. Some prefer higher than that. Find another doctor, if they don’t give you a target above 50, for most people without a specific reason, eg. mold or other exposure.
Cancer risk is greatly reduced when D is above 60. Above 100 is considered too high. 60-80 is what I target.
Need sufficient magnesium and retinol, and low insulin to convert Vitamin D to active form. Need Vitamin K2 to avoid excess calcium in blood and joints.
My internist refuses to check my insulin levels. I am currently looking for someone else who will!
Does your state permit you to go directly to a lab without Doctor's orders?
Are you saying that he does not do an A1C on you, Lizle ?
@@carolcole570 an insulin test is not the same thing as an A1c. An A1c checks your glycated red blood cells over over about three months.
@@charlenewilliams219 Ohhhhhh. Thank you for this info, Charlene.❤️
Doctor you have already achieve that goal! I am so thankful for you getting the word out
Just can't stop thinking about people in countries that eat so much bread ( here's looking at you Turkey!) People in Turkey eat far far more bread than any other country. Lots of nuts, seeds, fruit, salads, grains.... obviously they are all dying early horrible deaths. It is amazing they still exist at all.
also the Tsimane. they have the "healthiest hearts on Earth" despite eating a high carb - high fiber diet. i feel so bad for them & their miserable lives.
imagine if they became carnivores... they'd become Mega Maxx Ultra Uber Super-Human Immortals!
@@chuckleezodiac24 yeah. Just like our ancestors during the Ice Age.
They are the 30th highest for diabetes in the world while the USA sits at 59. However, the flour used in their bread is not as dangerous as the frankenwheat sold in North America. It is an advantage. Moreover, unlike the USA they do not add chemicals that block iodine from the thyroid to their bread.
China sits at 60. They compete with India for the highest number of skinny type 2 diabetics in the world per capita. Real issue, as they actually have worse outcomes than fat diabetes.
Because they are skinny it is hard to convince them they need to change their diet.
Canada sits at 100. The United Kingdom at 136.
Sweden, which has had low carb food guidelines for about 10 years sits at 173. But the other northern European countries are also really good.
However, they are still alive. They are living past age 40.
@@chuckleezodiac24The modal age of adult death is 70 years (SD = 6.3), similar to that among hunter‐gatherers and other horticulturalists and 1.5 decades earlier than that in high‐income countries (Gurven & Kaplan, 2007). By the age of 60 years, Tsimane show evidence of significant physical disability.

So I’m 78 should I be still taking estrogen to keep the fat cells smaller
Soy!!! All these reasons why I feed my hens (and hence eggs) a soy free food!!
When you say good sleep, are you talking the length of REM time ?
I would like Dr. Bikman to research Dercum's Disease (fat cells gone crazy). 😢
I didn’t know women need testosterone supplement. Which one do I take ?
Self administered Injections are best and cheapest. In older women generally a dose of 10 mg a week will make a huge difference to how you feel. Far more attention to this issue should be made although recently many doctors have woken up and are prescribing it.
Testosterone is a controlled substance and it’s a prescription. It’s not something you’ll find at the local drug store. Find a doctor in your area that does Bio-identical hormones and get your hormones tested. I had my ovaries removed early and started bio-identical hormone treatment 15 years ago. Testosterone was in the prescription in the beginning but now it isn’t. I get tested every year for the yearly prescription.
@@kimwestra2961Yes of course its prescription. See an endocrinologist though not a doctor. For most post menopausal women it is very helpful in small amounts. Please bear in mind your ovaries and adrenals are your only sources of testosterone, the ovaries being the biggest contributor, you can look it up.
Really like Dr Bikman ! Been following him for years. Great video!
I have learned so much from your videos and thank you. However, you are, in my opinion, a little too self-deprecating and too diplomatic in excusing doctor's serious lack of curiosity when delivering health care to their patience.
I e been carnivore 6 months and love this lifestyle. I went from Keto with a 85lb loss at age 70. Carnivore has helped me maintain weight loss and health. I work out 6 days a week and all my lab values are great.
What does that mean that her fasting insulin was 20 mentioned at 1:09:42? Please interpret that for those of us who aren't on the knowledge spectrum. What should fasting insulin be? Why is she never going to be able to lose weight?
20 milli-international units/liter. That won't make any sense unless you know what an international unit is, and that's a standard set by scientists, usually 0.025 micrograms of cholecalciferol or ergocalciferol. Optimal fasting insulin is 5-15 mIU/L on one test, 5-12 mIU/L on the other. So she's roughly twice the optimal level.
Your "optimal levels "are wrong. For ADULTS, fasting insulin must be 6 or lower to be OPTIMAL. LOOK IT UP. Every stage of life has different optimal fasting insulin levels. Unfortunately, every lab has its "normal range" and it is based on what that lab sees as an average in their area of the country. Dr. Barry and several others have discussed this extensively. ❤
Yes, unfortunately all/most of our foods are covered with plastic 😢 I have a glass water bottle & use filtered water.
They touched on it, but wish they would talk about healing the gut and hormones. I am sure i am not the only one keto forever and exercise.
Still have sugar issues and body fat and normal weight.
my understanding is that animal sourced Ω6 is also more stable than that processed from seed oils
Scary, look at Chefs they are storing foods in plastic containers..even high end restaurants

I've been doing Bio-iedntical hormones for years. It definitely has sloweds down my aging as well as my weight gain. I have never really gone through menopausal syptoms because my hormones have never tanked to super lower levels. Between my bio-identical hormones and now carnivore, I look 10-15yrs younger than my age. And I have more energy than ever before. Now 71, I lift weights, and have great muscle tone. My bio-identicals have included testosterone and progesterone. Alopathic hormones HRT is not bioidentical and is one size fits all 'panty hose' shot gun approach. I have seen huge benefits for men as using bio testosterone therapy. You need to go to a DR who specializes in this and test frequently enough to monitor what your levels are. Bio-identicals are customized for the individual based on these labs.
Same here! Bio-identical HRT & an animal based diet have sustained my quality of life through menopause.
I look at health differently. Thank you
covid was the biggest
Carnivore yes
🥩🥩🥚🥚
Aaaamen. I’m so stable in every way at 57!!!!
What about lean mass responders with 6 a1c and low carb diet, carnivore mostly and 2.0 insulin levels, 64 triglycerides? My carnivore dr wants me to up my carbs to 150 grams a day to spike insulin. I have an ileostomy and carbs are hard to digest. I like carnivore but it seems i am too fat adapted. Darn if you do, darn if you dont. Any ideas?
Thank you!
I watched my manager eat 500 percent of the recommended daily amount of sugar in fifteen minutes. This was just an in between meal snack.
Yep, I worked the night shift in a big town jail, 1 nurse at a whole bag of candy every night she was there. It was a stressful place to work. She had a visibly perfect figure. Blood work probably not so much. She was early 30s
I have friends like that. They think I'm crazy when I mention that oatmeal is not a super food and you should consider it a treat if you really like it that much.
26:00 The body is amazing. They way it can adapt in ways we don't even know yet ! Like surviving an ice age without developing scurvy...
Surviving by eating meat.
Great interview
Eat predominantly fatty red meat, lots of natural fatty meat, egg yolks, cultured cheese (if tolerated) & you'll be lean, flat tummy, you won't over eat at all, resistance training with interval training - you'll have good muscle tone. Consider testosterone pellets implanted as estrogen is converted from testosterone
If I don't have time to do both cardio and strength (within a few days), I'll row. It's both!
Ok, carbohydrates are not essential - ketones can be used instead - BUT in fruits and vegetables there are vitamins and minerals, and "secondary" colour giving substances, for instance vit c we cant build ourselves... so, if carbohydrates are seen not essential, what comes with them is ---? This is a question - i would be glad about a thoughtful answer...
Listen to Dr. Berry youtubes on carnivore diet. You get all vitamins and minerals from beef
No, they lied to us for decades. We can't even digest fiber. It's toxic. Watch Anthony chaffee, ken Berry md Shawn baker, carnivore doctor
My understanding is that vitamin c requirements diminish if eating a carnivore diet.
Glucose competes with vitamin C receptors in cells, so cutting down on glucose increases vit C availability. An egg yolk has everything needed to make bones, brain, blood etc to make a healthy chicken.
Meat also contains a small amount of vitamin c, enough to prevent scurvy if you cut down the carbs.
Nothing you say makes any kind of scientific sense. But then, the earth is flat, right? 🙄
So is it in a nut shell, eat less differently after 40?
If you are intelligent, you would be eating properly all along. But, the majority of us wait until disaster strikes.
43:10 What is your take on Tim Noakes' hypothesis that muscle glycogen store is more of a "dumping ground" to get glucose out of the blood stream, because when his test subjects do high intensity work, the blood glucose level drops before muscle glycogen is used?
I thought soy can’t be eaten if you had breast cancer ?
I heard that too and it makes perfect sense, we all forget that body is intelligent. Without us thinking and analysing , our bodies never work against itself.
@@kathigratton2286I will never eat anything from soy, and haven't for about fifteen years now.
I'm a Stage 3 breast cancer survivor so I'm definitely not inviting that to return!
Seven years cancer free now. 🥰🌿🙆🏻♀️
Ketovore here, I do crave a banana or an apple here and there wonder why ?
Watch Anthony chaffee, he can explain everything about this👍
The sugar?
Eating fruit in the late summer and early fall helps you store up fat for the winter when hunting might be scarce. Not a big issue in modern times.
@@dawnelder9046 fruit nowadays is genetic modifide. Nothing natural in that.
Can the world supply as much animal based protein as you are suggesting? Otherwise only the rich will be healthy?
Peter Ballerstedt can answer that, check him out.
Vegetarian diets are unsustainable, requiring expensive fertilizer but the soil is destroyed and rivers dry up turning the land into deserts. Today's vegetables have a fraction of the nutrients from a hundred years ago because of poor soil. Transporting fruit and vegetable from all around the world is wasteful when you can eat local grass fed meat.
be realistic, bro. all 8 billion humans will stop eating carbs & easily switch to 100% carnivore. no problems. no questions asked.
Regenerative farming. It reverses the desertification caused by Adventist farming practices. Restores biodiversity. Does not poison the water systems. Natural part of the system.
You do not need as much food when you are eating nutrition dense food. The current Adventist system is failing.
Buffalo roamed the west. Twenty feet of great top soil. Massive biodiversity. Clean water systems.
Replaced by cattle. Twenty feet of great top soil. Massive biodiversity. Clean water systems.
Replaced by Adventist farming.
Top soil gone. Biodiversity gone. Water systems poison.
Dust bowl. Empty food. No nutrients.
Always on the vege of another dust bowl.
Farmers in Canada and the USA are already working at converting over. Unfortunately it will take time as each location is different.
Unfortunately WEF members, the virtue signaling Nazis reimagined, which includes Adventist, are determined to carry out their ugenic program.
Bill Gates is a top member. Pure evil.
With so much of the biosphere dedicated to carbohydrate agriculture, the poor already inhabit food deserts that offer unhealthy processed carbs, and meats, particularly from properly raised stock, are the expensive foods.

is it beter to drink decaffeinated coffee ?
Caffeine stimulates the release of cortisol and adrenalin. Heavy consumption of coffee keeps your cortisol levels elevated, which increases insulin and inflammation. I switched to decaf three weeks ago. My typical blood pressure has decreased from 145/78 to 118/66. I can feel the lowered blood pressure, a relaxing, warming sensation like a mild dose of nitroglycerin, if you've ever had that. What little belly I had is melting back to washboard condition. Just turned 65, eat ketovore, weight and HIIT train already, so quitting caffeine has only been a plus.
Given the chemical processing involved I am not sure that it is a net positive. Perhaps moderation of the natural product might be a better option.
How do you measure fasting insulin?
Blood test fasting for 12 hours at least.
Test first thing in the morning.
The problem with this video is that it doesn't raise a question and then answer it. Instead there is too much description of the problem of too many fat cells [ hyperplasia ] then estrogen decreases because the woman is getting older pre/post menopause. It assumes that now the woman can, of course, take exogenous estrogen but does not flat out, reject this suggestion. There is too many suggestions after this point, and the presenter should just back up abit and reiterate what was the solution he mentioned which is the problem cannot end with more estrogen. The ideal case scenario is that the woman don't take more estrogen. The ideal path of this problem is the woman relent and allow her body to age naturally. Accept a man like body. That is the best solution. Let the presenter not talk endlessly about lack of estrogen and not present a solution. 😅 Infact the presenter should say no we are not hinting that the solution is exogenous estrogen supplementation. In fact we think the women should take a less bold approach to life and accept eating less for the weight problem, exercise more and generally accept the lack of estrogen existence..😂
I think we do need carbs biologically - but only to fatten up at the end of summer (when there's lots of ripe fruit) in order to make it through the long winter.
Nope. Maaaaybe back when meat would be more scarce (?). But, no, thank you.
Bears preparing for hibernation..
How can anybody afford to NOT eat carbs? Where I live, meat and fish start at $10/lb. Produce $1.20 to $7.00/lb. How can a retired person afford to eat more than four meals a week?
If there is a will there is a way, meats are always on sale, everywhere I travel I'm always seeing meats on sale, look for sales than buy, buy, buy ! Stock up and freeze it. Usually people are addicted to carbs, sugars, candy, donuts and make excuses saying meat is to expensive. You spend less on the meats you need than you spend on all the other crap in your kitchen.
I only buy on sale or in bulk and cut it myself. Right now at Chef Store a whole chuck roll is 4.29 per lb, approximately 24 lbs. From that I can cut steaks, roasts, stew meat, stir fry, ground beef, and extra fat trimmings. The fat is cut into cubes and fried or rendered into tallow for cooking with.
Chicken can be bought in large packs for $2-3/lb, pork roast are about the same, eggs are also cheap. Liver is around $2-3. Chicken hearts and gizzards are $1.79/lb, and make a tasty soup.
Skip the expensive fruits and veg, no breads, boxes of crackers, packs of cookies, sweet drinks and juices.
It is doable.Sardines and cheaper cuts to make stew,I buy beef bones,chicken carcass from my butcher to make soup and bone broth.Liver is cheap.I eat goid steak twice a week as well as fish.
I have found that the cost per pound is somewhat mitigated by the reduction in the amount needed.
Keep in mind that Doritos have also doubled in price.
@@mkshffr4936 What person interested in good nutrition would buy or eat Doritos for goodness sake? Cheap carbs = flour, dry rice and other grains, beans, oatmeal, domestic pasta. I'm astounded that people on a budget can afford fast and processed food.
Thanks so much for these indepth discussions. Would you consider covering the fiber debate? Hearing well credentialed scientists and researchers debating both ends - that fiber is necessary (essential?) to feed the microbiome and even support brain fx and cognition to delay dementia (!) to those who say it is useless! Is there some middle ground also?
Great video.
