Always interesting. :)
Hay Karen, you're so fake actor that made me vomit it, thanks to your honesty.
So good to see Dr Malhotra is well
1:14 "comes from Wales"😂😅
Very inspiring video❤
To those who want to continue eating the S.A.D. (Shitty America Diet) and swallowing big pharma's pills, great! Go ahead, this is your right!😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 I choose life!! Beef, bacon, butter, eggs, salt and water!! Zero carbs, zero grains, zero processed foods, zero seed oils. No vegetables, no fruits...these are full of sugar and carbs! My body does not need any of this crap!! Now, if yours does, up to you. But i choose to burn fat as my bodies fuel...❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
No doubt Keys was a full blown Narcissist.
How do you to Randomised "Controlled" Trials on humans? Answer: you can't.
😂 lol 7:04 'contrast that with plants ... they're just sitting there like idiots, not even trying to hide ...' Dr Chaffee's disdain of plant life as a food source cracks me up 😂
❤being in ketosis❤
Nice talk. You asked how to minimize fat. That's metabolic and easy. Insulin controls fat. Carbs increase insulin. Cut carbs. Eat fat to lose fat. ;)
Excellent talk. Thank you!!
❤ AGAIN!!! Another amazing and complete explanation by DR. Lustig giving a thorough and responsible education to his patients and we are all his students. He stay on topic from beginning to end. DR. LUSTIG is a doctor’s..doctor and is a prime example of a real genuine and sincere doctor/ human being. THANK YOU DR. LUSTIG❤ keep on going!!!
Oh dear more lies. Bran sticks do not have 20% sugar nor are they disgusting without sugar. Either soak in milk which releases natural sugars or use cream. Stop this fraudulent propaganda. Im going to Sainsburys now for high bran.
Oh dear, sweet little girlies you may be but come on give the full picture. Lots of things are healthy until they go through processing inc red meat with all the crap most animals are fed. You get organic, grass fed animals yes happy days but 99% are pumped full of garbage which is then consumed by yumans. You dont even mention this. So much for the scientific approach.
Excellent interview!
Vetkoek!
I just checked LCHF trends on google. The past 5 years, interest has declined ever since the COVID pandemic. Hopefully it'll get an uptick again.

Love Zoe Harcombe, thanks
So glad I’m not the only one who’s addicted to dates😂
Zoe is the best!!!
This woman is denying the benefits of fibre. Fibre is vital to support gut bacteria. This woman is just looking for followers.
Nina's message is dangerous. Discounting studies and trials when the overall evidence all comes to the same conclusion. Every Country in the world with a food pyramid, plate or graph encourages their population to limit saturated fat.
How awful that poor people don't know what to eat. Absurd stereotyping
"Households buying high volumes of sugary or diet soft drinks linked to low socio-economic status and less healthy food purchases" 9 September 2020
An amazing interview. So cool to get to know Gary Taubs better. I’ve always been amazed by his research but admire him even more.
Zoe is great, I just wish she was by my side when I'm trying to remember all of this stuff during an argument.
What about tomatoes?
I am aware that those in Egypt liked their grains. And back then their bread was not processed food as it is today. Moobs are found in men who are overweight, so certainly that would be a logical cause of their breast moobs. They did also eat animals. Eating seed oils is not the healthiest choice, as they have lots of calories. I have never heard before that wheat has phytoestrogens (which are a WEAK variation of estrogens found in humans, as Estradiol). In addition, phyto (plant) estrogens are Beta, and actually LOWER estrogen amounts in men and women and have been proven in multiple studies to be healthy for women with breast cancer and men with prostate cancer (and to prevent those cancers), while animal products have Alpha/growth stimulating properties. The humans who diss phytoestrogens, as in soy, ignore all of the animal hormones they eat in their daily meals. Humans have no need for any amount of non-human animal hormones. From my research, wheat GERM has some phytoestrogens, but the germ is a small part of the entire wheat kernel.
Thank you.
Jesus get a room!
That was great.
If you would like to dive deeper into the manipulations going on in the reporting about 'Blue Zones" this guy is great! ua-cam.com/video/ZR_kGRKvafA/v-deo.htmlsi=6UyZ1I6rl15kdo77
Absolutely love Dr Zoe because she is brilliant and has a great sense of humor.
There is no real proof that we evolved in this way. Learn about the existence of the Nephilim that were structured differently than us with very big skulls. Man has eaten both plants ( fruits ) and meat from animals from the beginning. Look at the story of Cain and Abel. Cain offered God "the fruits of the earth", Abel "the firstlings of his flock, and of their fat". Carbon dating is only accurate up to the time of the flood. The earth is much younger than they say...
So in summary the questions I need to ask my doctor: Me: Is my high fat low carb lifestyle going to result in my early death? GP: Yes Me: So you received extensive evidence based nutrition training to become a doctor? GP: No Me: Are you an ostrich? GP: I just follow the guidelines I am given 🐑 Me: Okay - I'll pass on the statins thank's.
Follow the dots . American Heart Association ❤❤❤ $$$$ . Eyes mind heart and soul wide open. NO FEAR ! Don't die, see you in 2500.
I love what Zoe says about grazing😂 I definitely have more weight on when I graze too much.
I cannot believe that the red meat derived from factory farming with the use and abuse of antibiotics, the poor feeding practices and the potential and actual stress of confined animals can be healthy for us as opposed to grass fed, organic and humanely treated cattle. However I have not come across any comparative studies on this subject. Over the past couple of years, I am much more discerning about where my meat comes from.Thankfully, living in Ireland , I have access to better food,,, so far.
This is a most amazing interview with Zoe! It's truly humorous and very serious. I loved it. Thank you!
Totally can relate to the power of compassion versus anger & negativity. So important we strive forward with bravery whilst leaving any hate behind. Thank you Dr Aseem
I'm on a modified fast by having regular low sugar meals, every 2 -3 hours, called fuelings, prepared, added vitamins, prebiotics, fiber, making good nutrition convenient. One meal is 5 to 7 ounces of a protein with measured amounts of low sugar vegetables. I feel better than I did 20 years ago.
At the beginning I didn't see where this cast goes. I completely agree with the conclusion though. 2 month low carb on 16/8 fasting and 6hr cycling/wk made me lose 10kg (11%) without being hungry.
Thank you!
Wow love this....❤
Host needs to get a good microphone to reduce acoustic echo.
Not only does she have a complete grasp of her subject… Zoe is such an entertaining and down to earth speaker
She really is! It was an honor and privledge interviewing her. Thanks for your support, it means so much.
That was hilarious , but l feel so mad that the so called healthy foodlot are trying to kill us , it's absolutely criminal , I'm not that brainy but lf l can get it , why ca.nt our GP ,'s so cross x
informative and entertining - what more could anyonde want [ oh and not forgetting beautiful women too ]
Awww! You;re the sweetest. Thank you! Appreciate your support.
The lies we have been told about food over the past 40 to 50 years is amazing. Makes me furious. I eat mostly meat now and I am 60 years old. The past 5 years have been difficult, but I am strong and healthy now.
Thanks for sharing your journey and congratulations on being strong and healthy! Thanks for your comment and support, it means so much.
Dr. Zoe Harcombe is one of my favorites to listen to. Thank you.
She's the best! Thanks for listening, I appreciate it.
