  • Excellent presentation.

  • I'm gonna try this and spread the word. Thanks

  • YOu don't have to eat salad every day. garlic, broccli, lemons limes are alkiline

  • I see one underlying problem that we've had since the beginning. The government telling people what they should eat. Obviously, if they left people alone we would have been better off. New ideas and information is better transmitted, as he said, amongst people. But if you're relying on a room full of experts to decide, they will always get the wrong answer and stick to it for decades.

  • @thanksfernuthin Absolutely. The government has an air of legitimacy and authority for people so they think they can just take its advice without thinking. If advice came from the ground up then people would have to seek out the advice with the best reputation! Government advice has authority from nothing whereas grass roots advice must build its authority through its reputation for working.

  • 30:00 yep! that's the ignorance of the industry. surely people we should be listening to!

  • So, if you go to a hamburger place. It makes you fater because of the bread instead of the actual meat? or does that meat also contain a high amount of carbs?

  • @LikeToLMFAO "...or does that meat also contain a high amount of carbs?"

    Meat doesn't contained carbs - except some processed meats that contain fillers, or deli meats (also processed) that contain sugars.

    Truth be told, the processed meats aren't good for us - every study 'linking' meat with cancer included processed meats - and there are many studies showing processed meats just aren't healthy.

    Your best bets are more organic meats - grass-fed/free-range, etc.

  • @LCHFinCanada body needs carbs bro

  • @TheUFCbruh ... except it doesn't. At all. there is absolutely NO dietary need for carbohydrate, and that is a scientific fact.

    That being said, for some people, there's certainly no problem eating carbohydrate, and it's part of a healthy diet for many. For others, they DO need to restrict avoid it. (Like diabetics, etc.)

    However, the fact remains, there is NO dietary need for carbohydrate, and the science all bears out that fact.

  • @LCHFinCanada what absolutely NOBODY needs, or should eat, however, is REFINED/PROCESSED carbs/sugars. The best sources of carbohydrate are non-starchy / lower-GI vegetables. Fruit, in moderation, is fine for many people - but it's higher in sugars and calories than vegetables, and contains no nutrients not already found in vegetables.

  • @LCHFinCanada Well, I read that carbs are the most effective energy source in the body. Mostly what I was talking about was with working out. But, from what I've read you are right.

  • @TheUFCbruh Also of note, for an ultra-high performance endurance athlete, where they're competitive, carbs are a better fuel source for competition - because glucose - although not generating as much ATP per molecule as fat, does burn slightly faster.

    Thus for someone who's ELITE the carbs may be superior fuel - but only for those ELITE, competitive athletes. The rest of us do FINE utilizing fat for fuel.

  • ... so even low-carb athletes that want that performance edge, tend to eat low-carb while training, and then cycle carbs in on the day-before and the day-of competition. Yams, being lower-GI are a great choice for this type of low-carb athlete.

    That way they keep lean and good glycemic control (important for competitive diabetic athletes), but have both the glycogen stores AND the fat-stores required for peak-performance during competition.

  • LOL at the watching Dr Oz comment. :D

  • Hi everyone! I'm wondering about meat with salad, is that a good combination? I'm afraid about the idea that lots of meat makes your body acidic, while vegetables make you alkaline. But it's hard to eat salads EVERY day... any idea? thanks...

  • This guy is related to the Trollololol guy right?

  • 1st question from the man at the end was a bit umm.....(dick).

    Great video! Share this info, We eat high fat and am losing fat! Do it! ;)

  • Am I the only one who thinks his voice is sexy as hell?

  • When he says sugar does he mean fruite as well?

  • @odd0odium

    yes! Im not a Lchf expert but I know that they avoid fruits to a larger extent.

  • @odd0odium yes, but it doesn't mean avoid fruit altogether, you're supposed to treat fruit as a treat

  • Have done it for 7 months now and lost >10 kg (roughly 20 ibs).

    I havent made a health check up since ive started but i feel a lot better and my asthma is also a lot better!

    Strongly recommend it!

    Stort tack Eenfeldt!

  • another very important thing has changed over time in most of the worlds history their has been someone at home making sure that the family had the proper food on hand to prepare "real" food meals - I am a working mom and eat low carb but it is a struggle every day to line up the correct foods in a "hurry" we are all rushing around looking for that quick and easy way to eat - where have all the moms gone ???? to work and as a result - over time our society has been degraded into what it is

  • Har hållt på i två i dagar och det känns bra :-)

  • The only way to stop obesity and stop Diabetes is with Super YASAi over at NoMoreVitamins.

  • Dear Dr. Eenfeldt... i am 35, 181cm tall, 95kg, well educated and picky with food. But after a heart attack i had to reconsider my diet. I changed my diet to vegan in order to avoid another heart attack.

    After looking in to lchf-diet i am not so sure about the path i have chosen. But how does the lchf-diet affect cardio-vascular diseases? I'm greatful for any input.

    thank you and best regards from stockholm

  • @jibbjaboo You'll get better cholesterol levels (good cholesterol). Sten Sture Skaldeman that successfully lost 60 kg went from the "worst case" to the "best case" his doctor had in a year. Check your health now and try it for a few months and then check again.

  • How about beans and lentils?

  • 11 people work for a pharmaceutical company...

  • Dear Andreas. Thank you SO much for helping to stem the tide of misinformation that has plagued us all for so long. Regards, a Danish girl who is in the middle of reducing her weight to HALF of what is was 2 years ago.

  • Thank you for your helpful video, do you heard about EMI Diet, I`heard so many good thinks about that diet. My friend lost tons of weight but he refuse to tell me how he did that.

  • don't usually watch documentaries on the net, but sat thru this one till the end :)

    Looking at my larder and food supply, can see me making several changes to my diet in the near future :)

  • Eat real food. Don't eat altered, refined, or processed foods. Throw away your microwave. Focus on fresh foods without preservatives.Lets eat a variety of seasonal foods that make us feel good. Consider nutritional fasting to eliminate food and drug addictions. Be prepared to experience life from a new perspective.

  • @1123krb Exactly. Eating high fat, low carb is not the ultimate answer...it's just another thing that will work for obese or unhealthy people, but there are many, many, other ways to stay fit, healthy, and live long.

  • Great speech! Give the guy a break Dr. Lustig!

  • Fantastiskt! Man är liksom lite stolt. :)

  • Loved it also look at the book and podcast "Wheat Belly"

    heheh enjoy your journey down the rabbit hole

  • Everyone should see your video :) I haven't ever before seen such to the point and informative talk about the risks of high carb diet. Kudos ! If you ever come to Göteborg the beer's on me ;)

  • Doctors are curing diabetes, obesity and heart disease using an unrefined high carb diet (starches, fruit, vegetables, legumes). Check out the Physicians Council for Responsible Medicine (pcrm.org). Like he said at the start, yet strangely cast it aside, is that unrefined carbs are not the same as sugar and white flour. Unrefined high carb diet equals trim, healthy people. Nobody gets fat on brown rice.

  • @brianv00 Healthy vegetarians will also agree, but he is making good points and still going in the right direction. If you run 2 miles after work, eating some white pasta will not hurt you, and I'm sure he would agree. He is much deeper down the rabbit hole and using his "paleo-diet" as a catch phrase in my opinion.

  • @brianv00 Maybe nobody -gets- fat on brown rice, but for people who've eaten junk all their life and have already become obese and screwed up their blood sugar, whole grains is not the answer to get slim and healthy, most of them need to stay away from all grains. I am one example, I was a sugar addict until about a year ago, I tried to switch from white flour to whole grains, didn't help at all, replacing starch with natural fats on the other hand did.

  • Well you can't continue to eat it like you did.

  • @MncDssctn You speak the truth. I can't even eat fruit. I get sick from eating whole grains. Maybe one day I will be able to handle grains again but right now I feel better just staying away from them.

  • I add my thanks Dr Eenfeldt - a master class - thank you

  • after spending countless amount of hours of trying to figure out a diet for my husband this sounds the most impressive. thanks for all the great tips, ideas and healthy tips. I hope this will be his last diet. Most impressed with the overall lecture. If your seminars come to the US I would be willing to bring my husband along to sit and listen to what you have to say. You are very insightful and knowledgeable. thanks again

  • Why is the audio so terrible? Great talk, but the audio drove me insane.

  • That woman at the end didn't know what she's talking about: food stamps can be used to purchase ANY food product (except for a very small number of things, like alcohol and energy drinks) You don't need as much food to feel full with LCHF, so even if food prices are higher, you'll spend less overall. Not to mention as you lose the weight (almost effortlessly) your appetite will naturally decrease.

  • Is it odd that this talk makes me want to move to ANY of the countries in Northern Europe? They seem a lot cooler than the U.S...a lot

  • I wonder if candy can be used as a sleeping drug - if it takes 3-4 hours for the bloodsugar to hit bottom, that means that you could eat a bag of candy at 7 pm and be ready for bed at 11 pm even with a sleeping disorder

  • @subadubable Cure your sleeping problem: get diabetes :-P

  • @bernlin2000 nah I don't think you'd get diabetes from that, if you ate low carb most of the day, it would be temporarily drug solution anyway

  • I do enjoy the saturated fats found in virgin coconut and palm fruit oils and avocado also. Very fine fats to cook with and ingest. Nuts and seeds are good also, cashews and walnuts being some of my favorites. Good to know there is no connection between these fats and cardiovascular disease.

  • Sorry, I don't mean to post too much.. But later in the talk, a member of the audience mentioned fiber. A mostly plant-based diet would introduce MUCH fiber indeed. If their results show that diabetics' status is much improved on LC diets AND on fiber diets, then I think that would suggest that plant-based diets are equally if not more advisable than a "paleo" meat diet. It's very important. Economic and ecological implications here, much at stake. Thanks for the video.

  • @gvdan8 I think you can still eat a high-plant diet while on paleo or low carb. The point low carb makes is not to necessarily increase meat consumption, but rather to decrease carbohydrate consumption. We want to debunk the myth that "meat and fats are unhealthy". Because people have this misconception, the meat and fats are being substituted with carbohydrates. Also, you'll find that most paleo adopters approve of free range, organic, and sustainable foods.

  • @gvdan8 "If their results show that diabetics' status is much improved on LC diets AND on fiber diets"

    A diabetic's status can't be improved any further than by eliminating carbs from his diet and minimizing protein in his diet to the minimum essential. What is the "fiber" supposed to do? This? proteinpower. com/drmike/fiber/a-cautionary-­tale-of-mucus-fore-and-aft

  • Also, keep in mind, I'm not unaware of the fact that you mention "real food" and fruit and vegetables, and I understand the Paleo gist of berries, nuts, meats, etc. But in terms of ecology and economics, it seems irresponsible to suggest that a half of a plate full of beef is advisable. Honestly, if there were 100 million people in the world tops, I wouldn't feel so bad hunting/killing animals for food. But the meat industry brings us a lot of problems...

  • Sorry, "ecological problems"

  • Wait wait wait wait wait wait. If we're supposed to eat LESS meat to reduce strain on the meat industry as well as strain on our grain and crop supplies, how is everyone supposed to be reconcile that with eating more meat and very little carbohydrates?? And what about the many benefits and improvements achieved by eating a mainly plant-based diet with very little meat? Have you seen "Forks Over Knives"? Meat and fish are fine, but there are ecologically problems. Can you comment?

  • My daughter has stopped having seizures after eating this type of diet.

    A high load of refined carbs, messed with her insulin levels, which caused hypoglycemia, and the symptoms of a seizure disorder.

    Thinking about foods that are served in our hospitals. Those healthcare providers do not understand nutrition.

  • Comment removed

  • What a well presented-talk. Great speaker. I will be forwarding this to family and friends as a great intro to the whole low-carb idea.

  • @wkriski

    i don't think we can even remotely blame meat consumption for the obesity situation. unless you can show that there are *no* vegan/vegetarian obese people?

    as for the efficiencies and economies, animals can graze across the vast majority of the planet, whereas agriculture cannot. it seems obvious on this basis where we should be aiming our efforts.

    especially considering 3-5% of all natural gas in the world is used supporting agriculture.

  • @scooma1 agreed but it difficult with this many people. with 7 billion people you have to create efficiencies and economies of scale so that you can produce enough meat (factory farming). This creates the abuse and hormones and other practices in order to produce this type of volume. The biggest benefit will come from reducing meat consumption - we don't need to eat it 3 times a day and at the volumes we do. Just look at the obesity rates and it is obvious. But I agree improve what we have now.

  • Wkriski, it's not meat or animal fats that make people fat.

    It's sugar, corn syrup and grains that for the pancreas to pump out insane amounts of insulin.

  • @AppleSouffle i agree refined sugar is bad, it's not just about getting fat though

  • @scooma1 it's more a question of sustainability with 7 billion people on the planet (meat requires much more resources to grow and environmental impact) and also as evolved creatures we now have other options and can make more intelligent choices

  • omg! has anybody considered the Acuspeed 24 Diet (google it)? I heard some amazing talk about it and my friend lost a lot of weight using it.

  • nice video

  • Give it up Dr Lusting (at the end). I gave up sugar and gained weight. I gave up sprouted whole wheat bread and lost weight, and my blood pressure went down.

  • this is very interesting coz my dad eats all the things he suggests..he has been doing so for years and is not overweight at all..and he does not eat high carb food...and he loves butter...I have always debated this but in vain since he is healthy (knock on wood!) so I guess there is truth to what Dr. Eenfeldt is saying..and I must say I have gone the same way as my dad and have lost 26 pounds in the past 16 months and a cumulative of 10 inches...I do workout too and sleep about 7 hours daily.

  • Wow. 33:20 is poignant. Kind of a "no way!" moment. Great talk.

  • were cavemen able to kill animals daily (since there was no refrigeration) and have meat 3 times a day?

  • @wkriski There are meat preservation methods that do not require refrigeration, like drying, which has been used since ancient times. Check out Wikipedia article on Drying Food. Also check out Pemmican. And you're probably familiar with Jerky.

    In an episode of BBC's Human Planet, they showed how the inhabitants of a small island in Asia preserve the meat after hunting a whale by drying it so they can feed on it for weeks.

  • @arthur78 point is we don't need to eat meat to survive and as we approach 7 billion people soon it is really unsustainable

  • @hitssquad as to meat price, we subsidize it in a big way - how could a bag of fritos cost so much more than a pound of beef? there is around 95% loss of protein per pound of produced eating meat... we feed well over half our grains to cattle, 90%+ for some? i guess sorghum would have to be on the 90+ list! i've seen 70 something before... so we pay a cheaper seeming price than it should be...

    this reminds me of MEAT STACKING, as u showed me some stacking thing for food production...

  • @glorp896 "how could a bag of fritos cost so much more than a pound of beef?"

    Advertising costs. Junk food is advertised. Meat isn't. Who pays for the Superbowl?: google. com/search?q=doritos+superbowl­+ad+costs

    .

    "there is around 95% loss of protein per pound of produced eating meat"

    Protein isn't the important macronutrient in the ancestral diet. Fat is. The finishing grain is converted to fat. Also, the protein quality in corn is low and contaminated with carbs, psychoactive chemicals, etc.

  • Spot on and well presented, Dr. Eenfeldt. You are a perfect example of how to communicate in the modern era at a conference. Very engaging, visual, logical, entertaining even...and very memorable. Well done indeed!

  • By following the advice given in the blog Kostdoktorn (dietdoctor) my bloodsugar level is now normal and no need for diabetes medicin any longer. I don´t say that everyone should eat strict lowcarb food, but the diet has been very succesful for persons with overweight and diabetes.

  • Great lecture Andreas!

  • I'd rather go hungry then eat that shit at 30:12.

  • @vincentninja68 You know that was the meal full of carbs that made his sugar spike & drop ... I'm glad for you that you'd rather not eat it !

  • Excellent lecture very nicely presented. Thank you for putting it up here.

  • Very good lecture, Andreas!

    I'm also sure that your editing of the video and slides made it much better.

    Keep up your good work - you are one of the best communicators!

  • Bravo Dr. Eenfeldt - now if we can only get the American medical community behind this. In both the US and Canada this information is often discounted as radical, and not recommended by Dr's, Nutritionists, Diabetes Educators, Dietitians, etc.

    As a Type II diabetic who has REVERSED his symptoms due to LCHF and exercise, I can assure you this diet, combined with exercise, WORKS.

    I'm thinking the person who disliked this works for a Pharmaceutical Co.

  • @AlbertaBeefy "As a Type II diabetic who has REVERSED his symptoms due to LCHF and exercise, I can assure you this diet, combined with exercise, WORKS."

    What makes you think the exercise component of your regimen bore any responsibility for the results you experienced?

  • @hitssquad My BG numbers improved after adding metformin, but not much. Then they improved greatly after simply adopting the diet, however not to the extent I was hoping.

    I wanted to exercise - but I have a degenerative spinal condition that prevents walking as well as other activities. I found I could cycle though, and once I added cycling in, and especially when I got accustomed to it and increased to 6 days per week, my glucose numbers continued to improve, now to near-normal levels.

  • @hitssquad they have called two of your last three posts here i've seen as spam... i NOT SPAMMED you, maybe that helps?

    oh wait, is that a bad anti-vegan unintentional pun?! SPAM! oh the humanity! or the pigganity! or whatever is in spam! CLASSIC SPAM: Pork with Ham, Salt, Water, Modified Potato Starch, Sugar, Sodium Nitrite. - damn, those bastards added carbs!

    - poor piggly wigglies... pigs have higher IQs than dogs and r much closer to us on the evolutionary scale...

  • @hitssquad i guess the real mystery meat idea is for it to have said PORK WITH HAM, as in ham is the good part and the rest of the pork is anus lips, colon, snouts, etc...?

  • Very nice and scary at the same time

  • There is an growing number of people awaiting this change!!

    Keep spreading the message! Awesome lecture and nicely edited ;-)

  • LCHF (low carb high fat) works! You can even do it as a vegetarian.

  • Dr. Eenfeldt,

    This is the most superb lecture I have seen on nutrition, and low carb nutrition in particular. You do a fantastic job, and considering that English is not your first language, I am incredibly impressed with your ability to articulate this message better than many native English speakers. If I were to rank your video in comparison to the others at the Ancestral Healthy Symposium, yours would be number 1! Keep up the good work.

  • @alphacause Agreed. This is a brilliant talk with smart presentation that is accessible to the masses. Bravo Dr. Eenfeldt!

  • We follow the revolution. Awesome!!

  • Comment removed

  • Bra föreläsning Andreas. Uppskattar ditt arbete för att ändra trenden till friskare och sundare människor. Att förändra cementerade attityder kräver sin man. Är själv LCHF:are men det är svårt att övertyga människorna omkring att ändra sina matvanor. Inte ens mina närmaste går att övertyga att konsekvent testa kost som bygger på LCHF

  • @tobbelin53 det är svårt att övertyga folk om de inte är intresserade. gör som du tycker är bäst, om de märker att du mår bra så kanske de blir intresserade. då kan du prata med dem med bra resultat!

  • Impressive lecture, very good points!
