Gabriel Cousen's "CARBS = DIABETES!" theory. Durianrider speaks. #268

[Hasan1544]

Oh hai! Have you thought about the Fat Blast Furnace (google it)? Ive heard some great things about it and my friend shed plenty of unwanted fat.

[Bralor89]

Harley what do you think about Robert Morse? He is on fasting and green juices....what's your opinion on him???

[zivels26]

Just to clarify things for people, Dr. Cousens is a scientist and extensive researcher and reports what the research is saying. The clip from the movie saying high carb is good was shot over 7 years ago when that was his latest findings. He has done a ton of research since then and has come to the scientifically researched conclusion that a low to moderate carbohydrate diet is best. Bottom line is any good scientist can & should change their conclusions to coincide with the most recent findings.

[b0ondockz]

Harley, you need to get a hat like GC. lmfao.

[vincy12345]

you crack me up Harley

[morman29]

Harley pls check out Dr Morses channel and the fact he says we high to eat fruits to detox.Please check him out and if you have already make a comment on his teachings as opposed to Brian clement and Gabriel cousens

[highsugarfruit]

@morman29 I'm sure Harley will support Dr. Morse because Dr. Morse promotes a high fruit diet.

[composertimbeek]

@highsugarfruit But morse also uses fasting and herbs not sure if Harley likes that? :P

[highsugarfruit]

@composertimbeek In one of the recent videos, Harley said that there comes a time for fasting as well. Apparently he changed his mind from "fasting is bad" to "fasting is acceptable for special occasions".

[composertimbeek]

@highsugarfruit Okay, i have been doing low calorie for some time and i had pretty good results, also did some fasting. I want to do some building up and also think of a way to do this fruit thing long term so now i'm going to try to do high calorie intake to see what will happen. So if it does work really well then 80/10/10 and fasting on occassions can be very powerful i think. I'm also fan of (GOOD) herbs,

[ReniLariH]

Does someone bribe these mofos to say low carb is good??? LOL

[Atheria444]

@wineguzzeller - When I had been on a very low carb, high protein diet years ago and went back to a regular mixed diet with brown rice, etc. I had a major hypoglycemic attack. The low carb diet seemed to damage my ability to handle any carbs for a day or so. Thankfully, I regulated pretty quickly.

Now, many years later, I have developed severe hypoglycemia (for a year now) and EVERY diet I try doesn't work. I have gone through hell. :-(

[ReniLariH]

@Atheria444 Try green juice fast for 30-60 days?

[Atheria444]

@ReniLariH I'm so scared to not eat. I have had some pretty dangerous low blood sugar attacks. Plus, I can't afford to lose ONE more pound. Since this happened to me, I have a hard time keeping weight on.

[highsugarfruit]

@Atheria444 You need to get off the fats completely; just eat mostly greens for like a week and then start adding in fruit. Eventually, you'll be able to get on a high carb, low fat diet of mostly fruit. Read 80/10/10 by Doug Graham or Dr. Morse's detox book. Both promote high fruit diet.

[Atheria444]

@highsugarfruit Many years ago when I was mostly raw, I tried Dr. Graham's approach and did not do well at all.....sad to say. I do appreciate the feedback. Granted, it was a cooked diet recently, but after reading Neal Barnard's book on diabetes, I cut the fat out and did better AT FIRST...but after a few days, I had a major low blood sugar attack.

[VibranceAndClarity]

I can't help but laugh, thanks! I would die (for real) if I could only eat the equivalent of 2 bananas a day in fruit.The only foods on this planet that are actually good without salt or added flavor are fruits and veges. Fruits are also very appealing to the eye and smell wonderful! BTW, you look good in this video, not hitting on you, just saying.

[MrMaryJanes]

Lmao this dude has a shitload of stimulant products on his site. No wonder he started recommending low carb!! ANOTHER SCAMMER!

[bluesdog88]

I'm so glad I wasted $30 on Dr Cousens bullshit DVD

[bluesdog88]

Is there a clip with Dr Cousens holding the bong?

[kelhado]

Great video, there is an obvious contradiction there about the carbs, stick to being the nutrition expert though.

[lightofloveunlimited]

Is Gabriel senile? He looks it. If you watch his interview about fruits being bad he's scares the sh@t out you if you're a fruit eater. He talks about people not being able to reproduce and on and on. Just 2 bananas a day people, that's what Gabriel says is ok. Is he nutz?

[kalosthenos]

funny shit 

[krpataky]

Wow...DR...you nailed it!!!  Laughed my ass off. He seems a bit confused by himself, doesn't he? Diagnosis: NOT ENOUGH CAWBS!!! What the bleep is he saying about Satan??? OMG, what dribble and trash. His brain really seems confused. Just, wow. Thanks for sharing this.

[danielskipp1]

Cousens has been taking lessons from Merc-ola.. don't eat fruit, buy his supps!

Ka-Ching!

[wineguzzeller]

I have been living on a low carb diet for a few years. i started shovelling in carbs 5 days ago. fruit, pasta, bread, potatoes. I had never eaten so much fruit before. Now every time i eat carbs my body starts shaking. My heart starts racing rapidly which causes me to panic. I suffer with anxiety disorder but this is happening to me every time i eat. so something is telling me its the sugars. Do you think I have a sugar intolerance? Or does my body just need to adapt to the new sugar intake.

[durianriders]

@wineguzzeller Your channel name says it all. ;)

[1padlock1]

@wineguzzeller Hi wineguzzeller, I would definitely go back to doing a low carb diet! I have anxiety disorder too and sugar messes me up. Of course it's extremely addicting, when I go back on sugar after being off of it I get terrible anxiety, fatigue, chills, and brain fog. Avoid the carbs, listen to Gabriel Cousens, he has the science, and good luck to you and your health!

[wineguzzeller]

@wineguzzeller just to clarify i haven't drunk alcohol in 2 months and before then it was very rare. it's an old account i made years ago when i was a young teen living it large on the weekends. Should change my name lol. yeah i have been getting loads of panick attacks for about 8 months now ( i'm 23) . only started eating loads of carbs a week ago. in the beginning it felt amazing. doctor put me on anti depressants 1 month ago. i have been a mess this month. I had a traumatic child hood.

[wineguzzeller]

@wineguzzeller I have been to A & E a few times in the middle of the night. Bloods, Ecg ,all fine.B12 and iron levels normal, Thyroid and kidneys fine. blood sugars were 64 after a huge watermelon even though i was shaking like mad. Maybe its just anxiety cause 64 is normal. Some times i get a burning sensation in my brain/Throat area and then a huge surge of electricity contracts in my chest. its fucking scary. i feel like i'm dying every time. So yeah Anxiety Disorder or??? 6 Ft . 10 stone 9

[jgfergus]

@wineguzzeller

Pasta, & breads are refined carbs with high glycemic loads. And cooked potatoes have a very high GL as well. And all those carbs are dead food with no life force, no live enzymes, and denatured proteins due to the cooking. The simple sugars from fruit are what our body was designed for. The primary fuel for every cell in our body is simple sugars...glucose & fructose. Stick with carbs from fruit and eliminate the processed, dead carbs from breads & pastas.

[quitejaded]

@wineguzzeller Probably adapting. I experience similar things during parties where they just have cake, soda, and candy!! Its okay to "ease' into things.

[Helenelalala]

@wineguzzeller if u mix fruits sugars somewhat in the same meals as pasta, potatoes, etc. you create troubles for yourself. Fruits are the right type of sugars but not mixed with stuff lacking nutrients and being used as a food by candida like pasta for ex. So try not mixing real fruits with others staff.

[shellystacey]

Looks like Dr. Gabriel Cousens has turned to the dark side. Must be his way of helping us to evolve spirituality LOL

[tamcon72]

Is it possible that he's talking about cooked carbohydrates in the first excerpt? Since he specializes in treating cooked food, SAD eaters? It would be helpful if you dated each segment, so we knew how they relate to one another in time. If you're eating cooked foods, including starches, he's right that eating large amounts of raw bananas or other fruit on top of that prolly isn't a good idea when diabetic. Context, Durian, context!

[durianriders]

@tamcon72 As a fan of GC Im surprised you know so little of his teachings. GC says carbs are bad regardless if its fruit or HFCS. He says a high fat diet is best, actually he says a high carb diet is best...hang on, I dont actually know what the fuck GC says is best...sorry. ;)

[tamcon72]

@durianriders

Durian!

I'm not a "fan" of GC, but I am aware of the basics of his healing program. He does work mostly with SAD eaters, counseling them on changing their eating habits, so I though maybe the first part was a lecture to cooked food diabetic patients, and the following lectures were maybe to raw foodists. It's hard to tell where each is in time/purpose compared to the others, is my point :)

[tnlshow]

@durianriders I don't know what the crap GC is dribbling on about in his talks that you've shown. I certainly hope that they were made before the Reversing Diabetes in 30 days video. Bottom line is, he has successfully reversed diabetes through dietary changes towards a high carb, low fat, low protein diet. Everybody should watch the DVD and listen to what he says on there (where there is evidence) and then ignore any other shit he dribbles that contradicts it.

[smallbuttfirm]

What the fuck is WRONG with him!

[scrambledeggsTV]

i'll correct that actually, after watching the whole video, he is just talking complete bollocks

[scrambledeggsTV]

sounds like hes making it up as he goes along, not the best type of guru

[ken4health]

While Gabriel's books are fascinating, he sounds "pilled" in this video ... slurring his words... wait.... maybe he needs some more fruit! Get this guy a banana!

[HughManification]

Harley! you are part of my morning routine! weight is comming off without effort!

really looking forward to the next spring, I ought to be able to start biking again!

I really like your style!!  Cheers mate! :O)

[UniversalTruths]

If low carb is good for you, why does he look so sickly?

[DaveJales]

He needs to read his Bible... It says nothing about Satan in the Garden of Eden - it only speaks of the serpent. Most Christians get this wrong.

[hypnos315]

Guy must have been stoned.......

[jungledrumnbass4ever]

@MatrixReality2011 these guys are conmen

[jukijunk]

@iusecomputers2

Totally agree dude LOL

[guitargczr699]

love your sense of humor Harley haha

I think Gabriel has confused himself

[the305boricua]

lol Durianrider saw the comments and replaced ths video with a duplicate on his main page.

[the305boricua]

@iusecomputers2 don't be so quick to judge. To be honest Gabriel Cousens and HHI do not say absolutely no fruit, just moderate them. Besides Gabriel Cousens goes by the Zone diet principles, not the macronutrient ratio, moreso the principles of being low glycemic, higher fat.

[the305boricua]

@the305boricua lol ok I dont know why the last comment I wrote about was erased a second ago when I refreshed and now it's back. whoops.

[the305boricua]

@iusecomputers2 don't be so quick to judge. Not a lot of people actually follow Gabriel Cousens' diet principles to a T, nor of the Hippocrates Institute diet. The fact is in the Rainbow Greens diet program fruits Are allowed, just lower or moderate in the higher glycemic fruits and fruits in general. So that means you Can have fruit, just not in "excess". Hippocrates Institute on the other hand says no more than 15% for most if not lower for people with disease. And of course lower glycemic.

[jungledrumnbass4ever]

the guy has dementia, clearly!

[TheSt0rm]

@liftingrawfood check out my comments on your video. A person does not need to eat fish. Just make sure that you get a lot of omega 3s from flax and chia seeds, to make a ratio of 4:1 to 1:1 omega 6 to 3s. The body will make DHA and EPA naturally that way for all the body's needs, no need to supplement..

[the305boricua]

@TheSt0rm I forgot to mention protein.. but really studies have been done that show for even the most extreme athletes 30-50g a day is enough, and that's on cooked food. Cooked food loses its protein its bioavailability about 50%. Proteins get denatured depending on how much it's cooked. Besides, when you eat a lower-moderate carb diet you'll naturally get enough protein, and dare I say that because it's raw you might need less? Though I don't do that tbh. I stay within 30-50g.

[TheSt0rm]

Gabriel Cousens has changed and refined his diet principles since that movie Reversing Diabetes. Before he spoke of "high carbohydrates" being good, that was back when he made that movie. That was more than a number of years ago. Since then he has been leaning more towards the higher fat, especially since he believes that most people's constitutions seem to be more geared for the "primitive" diets of our ancestors and that is of a higher protein and fat diets, ie like the Zone diet.

[dudethedestroyer]

Hmmm....He's a flip flopper! Haha!

I worked with a kid that is type 1 diabetic and he went to Cousins clinic in Patagonia, AZ for the 3 week $12G retreat. Did he get off his meds? Yes, he did. BUT!..they sent him home with a raw food cookbook full of complex HIGH fat low carb recipes. Needless to say he fell off the deep end after only a few weeks home. A year later he was so bad he couldn't even dress himself! I started him on LFRV, 3 weeks later he was functioning perfectly! So easy.

[Gary1111001]

So far, 3 people are confused. It's clear to me now: Some people "Change their minds" from sense to dollars. They realize they'll get more fans if they keep people confused.(= people keep coming back for the 'latest' word)

[jbrah69]

reptilian

[marktassi]

Love this one. :D

[ucandothis1]

It looks to me like he was much younger when he said a high carb diet is the best. Then maybe as the years went by and he was investingating he came up with the opinion of the low carb diet being the best.

[baum7des7lebens7]

He is totally confused about his concept of Satan, but for the dietary part, he changed his opinion over time. Gabriel Cousens is an intelligent person (be honest...) and even smart people can be wrong sometimes...

[STORYTASTIC]

I love these clowns him Wolfe and Vitalis...you Bullshit enuff people start believin u!!! goooo Harleyyyyy

[caribe81]

WTF??? He is crazy

[RachedHayek]

love ur style man, lol ... "play it again..what did he say!!!"

[marysuss]

He shows many deceptive traits in his speech

[bluesdog88]

I'm so glad I just bought that DVD!! Not

[visualvirtue]

Of course the satan bit makes sense, it's halloween, you fruitcakes!

[VeganWelshman]

Why do some raw foodists go into spiritual/religious rubbish so much? Talking about all that crap is not going to get this diet into the mainstream.

[1padlock1]

@VeganWelshman I think because they feel so enlightened and in touch with the love and beauty in everything that it's only natural to gravitate in the spiritual direction. But I agree, talking about it will deter the mainstream

[mrtruthforever]

@VeganWelshman Because, believe it or not, when you move away from consuming flesh, and this will sound strange to a person who hasn't done it, there are both physical and spiritual effects. Physically, the body feels less toxic, lighter, and spiritually, you move to a higher plane where your body doesn't crave flesh (i.e., having to kill-be it indirectly-an animal for you to sustain life).This is not new or unique to raw-foodists. This is a known metaphysical dating back thousands of years.

[DavidAMIs]

Jesus Christ!!! THAT SATAN BIT IS FUCKED UP! What the hell is wrong with people!

[DavidAMIs]

What is the time difference between both videos. In the High Carb = Good video he looks healthy and is talking straight. The High Carb = Bad sounds and looks like he's heading downhill.

[rui27marne]

@DavidAMIs he looks better on the high carb diet bcuz it was filmed 9 years ago! u idiot!

[DavidAMIs]

@rui27marne Really? Name calling? Thanks...

[EntitySeventySeven]

Gabriel Cousens is funny, I watched all his vids and he really cracks me up, world class entertainment.

[richiemonster3]

@jhardknox: 3:06 is an excerpt from HIS film, Simply Raw - Reversing Diabetes in 30 Days!!!

[DarkPrince1785]

What the Fuck? I'm very confused! What the fuck do SATAN has to do with the VEGAN lifestyle? That dude is retarded.

[stephlovesthejobros]

Haha don't worry about the wax, it's natural.

It's videos like these that remind me why you're my fave :D

[jhardknox]

@durianriders Important question, Harley. Isn't it possible that GC is talking about two opposite contexts here. First, 2:33 "I've been looking at this in TERMS of diabetes...and what we're seeing is a high carbohydrate diet is the least healthy diet." Ok, that's for diabetes. Now, more importantly, what were the TERMS during the other speech when he says, 3:06 "..the diet that works the best is a high fiber, high carb, low protein low fat diet..."? You really should clarify this.

[mckeownluke0]

@jhardknox the speech "the diet that workse best is a high fibre high carb low protein low fat diet.." was to diabetics also!! ...saids it all i think

[Douger4u777]

This guy forgot to take he full of crap!!

[mikecazzx]

What? Make up your mind Gabriel.

[sillygoose544]

Ok, what was that whoo-whoo he was spouting off after 4:00? Get that man some carbs, stat! His brain is screaming for sugar!

[Smileeen]

Don't know for sure, but he's probably referring to REFINED carbohydrates in the first clip. 

[Greenhelper7]

Harley, finally got a copy of 80-10-10, and in the first read through, made so much sense. Cut way back on nuts and other fats months ago after watching one of your videos, and kicked the fruits way up. Started listening to Dr Grahams videos also. Began feeling more energetic, stronger, with more mental clarity. But, so many mixed messages out there, and I began my quest for better health back in 1976, so yikes!

[Antisthenez]

this guy ripped me off, i went to his 'retreat' to do some architecture design work for green houses and never got paid. not only that but Patagonia is near the boarder and in a militarized zone so i got my car torn about by cross deputized ATF Boarder Agent State Federal DEA cops and pulled guns on. This gut is not special he is a zionist and we know what that means. racism apartheid segregation and other human rights violations (saying myth as truth being one),

[CmdrSoCal]

@Antisthenez who is "this guy"?

[EntitySeventySeven]

@Antisthenez

LOL! Your story is hilarious.

[hoppimike]

Good stuff cheers man, really made me laugh too!

I don't really listen to that guy but... this is why tbh! These people just flip flop and don't really give information you can USE.

Cheers Harley :)

[Rocksinga]

Fact you will never get sick eating fruit only !

[rzarzarzarza84]

@Rocksinga Yes absolutely true! Frugivores FTW! :D

[FairyDakini]

youtube.com/user/robertmorsend­?feature=uploademail_ch This is Morse site. He has helped people after Hippocrates Institute and Cousins. He recommends fruits only for detox. I am experiencing this. Morse is a very humble man. I don't know if he is Frutarian now he is just in service to helping others to help themselves heal: I think he is middle road eats greens but when you are ill fruit is what heals. See Video question 55 part 1 at 4:37 for his perspective on Cousins.

[natureasintended]

@FairyDakini Wonderful video on tashaleeminestry's channel regarding her amazing diabetes improvement

[FairyDakini]

@natureasintended It's amazing Morse Book on The Detox Miracle Source Book. Morse has been in this practice 40 years. He is very aligned with what Harley says. You should see lady with MS that is walking. Morse really explains that if we had intestines like a cow yes eating veges would be great. We have smaller intestines then cows. Also he says google up 256 Asian Man (I haven't yet) his philosophy was the higher up we eat meaning fruits over root veges the more vibrant the food.

[natureasintended]

@FairyDakini Thanks for the info :) I got it after initially reading that he recommends fruits "only for detox", instead of "fruits only, for detox". It's wonderful to know his recommendation that fruit is healing. Thanks again :)

[sabatheus]

Wow...he changed his mind...ok...

What does he believe now? I hope he reversed himself because he got the facts and discovered that fruit carbs are actually good for you.

I'm actually starting to learn that it's the fat in conjunction with the carbs that are causing all the issues--not the carbs alone. Your milage may vary.

[brianv00]

That guy is full of it.

[bashful228]

Through countless births in the cycle of existence I have run, not finding although seeking the builder of this house; and again and again I faced the suffering of new birth. Oh housebuilder! Now you are seen. You shall not build a house again for me. All your beams are broken, the ridgepole is shattered. The mind has become freed from conditioning: the end of craving has been reached. Dhammapada 11.153, 11.154

[astronautagogo]

SOrry but Gabriel lost me before he even opened his mouth.

[bashful228]

Enlightened being's do not do pujhas, deluded beings who like to think they are enlightened may do puhja. Truly enlightened beings have discovered the ultimate truth through their own efforts, no-one can carry another to this truth it has been said. This truth is attainment of the deathless, escaping the cycle of rebirth. Even Gods have not attained to the deathless.

[RosalindandPearls]

A contradiction for sure. No wonder ppl are confused when it comes to diet and what to eat. oh lala

Much love to you. thanks for sharing.

[ReneeAngelicaH]

This proves that some people that promote unhealthy diets truly know what is best (high carb, low fat). They just can't get rich on the truth. So, if he wants to keep selling his products, he needs to watch his slip-ups. ;)

[StrawberryBigMac]

i'm so glad he was able to clarify that satan thing.... good to know the facts. lol

[fredhassen]

Maybe he changed his mind. :-)

[StrawberryBigMac]

ahhh ok but which sound clip is based on the newest research?

[DaniaOMGWania]

this man is crazy llol, he looks hella crazy

[ReneeAngelicaH]

Hahah "While we're talking about fruit, does SATAN exist?"
