"Fett essen, um Fett zu verlieren" - was zunächst paradox klingt funktioniert tatsächlich: Tauche ein in die faszinierende Welt der Keto-Diät! In dieser Episode nehmen Felix und ich Dich mit auf eine Entdeckungsreise durch die Grundlagen dieser außergewöhnlichen Ernährungsweise. Du erfährst, warum die Keto-Diät auf hohe Fettaufnahme und starke Kohlenhydratreduktion setzt und was dabei in unserem Körper passiert. Doch ist der Hype um die Keto-Diät wirklich gerechtfertigt? Wissenschaftler sagen: Neben vielen Vorteilen gibt es auch einige Kritikpunkte und Herausforderungen. Und wir vergleichen die Keto-Diät mit der bekannten Atkins-Diät - ebenfalls eine kohlenhydratarme Ernährungsweise, die in den 1970er Jahren von Robert Atkins entwickelt wurde und darauf abzielt, den Körper dazu zu bringen, Fett statt Kohlenhydrate als primäre Energiequelle zu nutzen. Diesen Zustand nennt man "Ketose". Ob diese sehr spezielle Diät für Dich geeignet ist? Hör doch mal rein. Deine Anastasia -- Ein ALL EARS ON YOU Original Podcast.

You've most certainly heard the phrase: "carbs are the enemy". I'm hoping the person who made that statement wasn't a registered dietitian or a medical doctor, although if they were, I'm guessing they sell lifestyle books or wellness programs. Turns out I was partly right. In fact, carbs have been vilified since the dawn of the low-carb diet. In the 1970's, Dr Robert Atkins, the father of the low-carb movement, published his Diet Revolution books, which went on to sell over 15 million copies. He encouraged people to cut out all carbs and focus mainly on foods that contained the two other macronutrients: protein and fat. No wonder this dietary pattern became so popular. People were told to eat bacon, cheese and fried chicken, and even though prestigious scientific journals called these dietary recommendations dangerous and irresponsible, the damage to carb's reputation was already done.

What do some epilepsy patients have in common with tech bros, bodybuilders, and Joe Rogan? The high-fat, carb-shunning diet known as keto, whose history dates back much further than its 2010s rise to fame. In this episode, Gastropod traces how a medical treatment pioneered more than 2,500 years ago was refined in the 1920s to treat seizures. We trace its wild ride in and out of fashion, with cameos from Robert Atkins, the 80s exercise craze, and Meryl Streep. And, of course, we've got the myth-busting science on what ketosis and ketones really are, the dangers of eating this way to lose weight, and the reason this diet can be life-saving—for people with a very specific medical condition. Bust out the butter (but please don't put it in coffee) and join us down the keto rabbit hole. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Our guest today is Dr. Jason Fung, a Toronto-based nephrologist, and the best-selling author of “The Obesity Code,” “The Diabetes Code,” and “The Cancer Code.” Jason is best known for his success in combining a low-carb diet with intermittent fasting to help thousands of overweight patients reverse their type 2 diabetes, lose weight, and improve their metabolic health. Jason is the author of the blog “The Fasting Method” and the co-founder of the Intensive Dietary Management program, an initiative that provides low-carb dietary guidance and counseling on various fasting regimes. Jason is also the co-author with Jimmy Moore of “The Complete Guide to Fasting,” which looks at the history and culture of fasting and how it helps people improve their metabolic health. In today's episode, Ken is joined by Visiting IHMC research scientist Dr. Tommy Wood and together, they and Jason discuss: How in the beginning of his practice, Jason prescribed insulin for type 2 diabetes patients. How a series of landmark studies starting in 2008 changed Jason's mind about using glucose-lowering medication for type 2 diabetes. Jason's realization that type 2 diabetes is largely a dietary disease and therefore requires a dietary solution rather than a pharmaceutical one. The origins of Jason's Dietary Management program, which counsels overweight and obese patients to follow a low-carbohydrate, high-fat diet to reduce insulin. A critique of the “eat less, move more” strategy acclaimed by many obesity experts. Mark Mattson's research into the powerful impact of intermittent fasting on metabolic health and a recent paper that questioned the effectiveness of time-restricted eating when compared to daily calorie restriction. Recent research and evidence that fasting during chemotherapy may reduce the side effects of the treatment. Show notes: [00:02:25] Tommy opens the interview mentioning that Jason was born and raised in Toronto and asks what drew Jason to science as a kid. [00:03:43] Tommy mentions the irony that Jason has written several best-selling books, yet Jason was not fond of English or writing when he was in school. [00:04:53] Ken mentions that after graduating from high school, Jason stayed close to home and attended the University of Toronto, entering into medical school just after turning 19 to study internal medicine, eventually specializing in nephrology. Ken asks Jason what intrigued him about becoming a kidney specialist. [00:06:36] Tommy asks Jason what led him to go to UCLA after medical school for his specialty training in kidney disease at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. [00:07:37] Tommy mentions that Jason has been practicing clinical nephrology in Toronto since 2001, and that in those early years of his practice, Jason saw patients with type 2 diabetes and prescribed medications to keep their blood glucose low. When that didn't work, he would prescribe insulin, which is the standard medical practice. Tommy asks what Jason observed during these early years of his practice. [00:09:28] Ken mentions that in 2008, two landmark studies were published, the ACCORD study and the ADVANCE study (a summary of ADVANCE). These studies were followed by two more studies, the ORIGIN and VADT studies, all four of which demonstrated that using blood glucose-lowering medication for type 2 diabetes didn't necessarily have the expected benefits. Ken asks Jason to talk about how these studies were eye-opening for him and confirmed his own experience in treating patients. [00:16:27] Tommy explains that in 1972 Robert Atkins published the “Dr. Atkins' Diet Revolution,” which shared his findings on the effectiveness of low-carb, high-fat dieting. Tommy goes on to mention that in the late 1990s, a string of Atkins-styled diet books surged in popularity, with most physicians being opposed due to the conventional wisdom that these high-fat diets would cause heart disease. As a result,
Everyone knows that they need to drink water, but do you actually understand the importance of hydration? When speaking of chronic disease, many doctors will emphasize the importance of nutrition. Nutrition is definitely a huge piece of the healing puzzle, but another, more overlooked piece is hydration. Hydration really needs to be your starting point before you go on any nutritional plan. The best part? It only takes one day to start seeing results. Whereas with nutrition, it takes weeks to start seeing the effects of your diet changes, you'll know immediately what it's like to feel better because you are hydrated. In today's episode of The Dr. Kinney Show, I sat down with Dr. Dana Cohen to talk about optimal hydration and why it should be the first treatment plan for any disease or illness. Dr. Cohen has worked side by side with the late Dr. Robert Atkins, a true pioneer in the field of integrative medicine. Well respected by her peers and beloved by her patients, Dr. Cohen, most importantly, is a clinician. She is an internal medicine doctor who has spent her career focusing on integrative medicine. She has helped thousands of patients find relief from a variety of health problems utilizing the principles of integrative and functional medicine. She practices with an emphasis on the individual, understanding that no two patients are alike. She focuses on nutrition and limits her patients' reliance on prescription medications by using diet, lifestyle changes, and nutritional supplementation. To heal chronic issues, you have to get back to the basics. Tune in to learn more about optimal hydration and how you can properly hydrate and start seeing immediate results.

Do you have a fear of eating too many carbohydrates? Do you think carbohydrates make you gain weight? If you do, you have Carbophobia. Where did this fear of carbs come from? In his book, “The Low-Carb Fraud”, T. Colin Campbell, PhD tells us. Back in 1972, Dr. Robert Atkins wrote a book called, “The Atkins Diet Revolution”. It wasn't very popular, so several years later, in the 1980's when there was a lot of talk about obesity, especially obesity in America, Dr. Atkins decided to re-market his book. In 1988 he revised and republished it with the title, “Dr. Atkins New Diet Revolution”. In this book, he proclaims that obesity is not caused by eating fat, it's caused by eating too many carbs. He advocates severely restricting carbohydrate intake and getting most of your calories from fat and protein. I've never had a fear of eating carbohydrates, but even as a child when I had a hamburger if I didn't want to finish my hamburger my parents told me to eat the meat and leave the bun. Today it is common for people to eat high fat, high protein and restrict and even avoid carbohydrates altogether because they believe carbs will make you fat. Modern versions of what started as the Atkins diet are the South Beach Diet, the Paleo Diet and the Zone Diet. For a person who has been eating a lot of processed carbs as well as a high fat, high protein diet, to severely restrict the amount of processed carbs that they've been eating can result in quick weight-loss. But what's wrong with this approach? 1. Low carb diets are very unhealthy and have long-term health consequences. 2. Low carb diets lumps all carbohydrates into the same category, whether they are whole foods plant-based carbs or processed carbs. By doing so, it confuses people and leads them to believe that all carbs are the same and all are bad and should be avoided. That simply is not true. 3. Low-carb diets emphasizes fat and cholesterol and proclaims them as nutritional heroes that should be increased in a person's diet. In reality, fat and cholesterol are the cause of many of our modern day health problems such as cardiovascular disease, arteriosclerosis, and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease to name a few. 4. A very restrictive diet of any kind, low-carb diet or otherwise is simply not sustainable. Whatever weight is lost from such a restrictive diet is ultimately gained back along with even more weight. In contrast, a whole-foods, plant-based lifestyle isn't restrictive. We don't count, weigh or measure our food and we eat until we're satisfied. Dr. Michael Greger says low carb diets cripple people's arteries. Wow! That's enough of a reason right there to not eat a low-carb diet! By definition, a low-carb diet emphasizes animal based foods, whereas a low fat diet emphasizes a plant-based diet. The healthiest way to fight obesity is to eat a whole foods plant-based diet that emphasizes whole foods that are high in nutrients, high in fiber, low in sodium, low in saturated fat, and very low in cholesterol, while at the same time steering clear of processed foods. Note the word “processed,” because these foods are low in nutrients, low in fiber, high in sodium, high in saturated fat and high in cholesterol. We highly recommend the book, “The Low Carb Fraud” by T. Colin Campbell, PhD and Howard Jacobson, PhD which fully explains the danger of a low carb diet.

Proper hydration is the key to unlocking our optimal health. Are you getting enough water intake each day? Dr Dana Cohen or as I like to call her “The Water Goddess” joins me today to talk about hydration and how many of us are living in a constant state of dehydration. This can lead to a plethora of health concerns such as; brain fog, fatigue, joint pain, muscle aches, dry skin, dry mucous membranes. As well as more extreme body breakdowns such as; cancers, diabetes, alzheimers and more. The benefits of proper hydration can have a dramatic effect on your health, your vitality, and your overall quality of life.

This week I was lucky to have Doctor Dana Cohen on the podcast. She is a clinician, a doctor, specialising in internal medicine, who has worked side by side with the late Dr. Robert Atkins, a true pioneer in the field of integrative medicine. She has helped thousands of patients find relief from a variety of health problems utilizing the principles of integrative and functional medicine. She practices with an emphasis on the individual, understanding that no two patients are alike. Her results demonstrate that there is an art to medicine and a way to connect with patients on a level much deeper than what is achieved through mainstream medicine. She focuses on nutrition and limits her patients' reliance on prescription medications by using diet, lifestyle changes and nutritional supplementation. This leads me to cases which she discussed that were rapidly improved by a simple staple we all have access to - water. She recently launched her first book “Quench” with coauthor Gina Bria, which has garnered rave reviews and has a cult following of devotees. Dr Cohen was such a lovely guest to have on, I think everyone will be reminded of the necessity in the simplicity - staying hydrated. She also gave amazing tips on staying hydrated in diverse ways - like making one of her smoothies! You can grab Dr. Cohen's book and get more information surrounding holistic health and hydration on her website: https://drdanacohen.com. To find out the whole story, tune into this week's episode.

Every minute of every day, you and I are getting older. Have you ever wondered what causes your body to age? Well there's been a lot of research into that and there are some very simple things you can do – to slow down that process. Interested? Eat Healthy, Be Healthy You and I have been given such an amazing body, and it's the only body that we'll ever get. It's been wonderfully, exquisitely, uniquely handcrafted and yet so many of us are abusing it into an early grave. All because of what we're putting into our mouths. You are what you eat – literally. Way to many people are contracting diseases that, just a century ago were rare as hens teeth. As we saw last week on the program, cardio-vascular disease was almost unknown in the early 20th century. Today, the World Health Organisation estimates that through heart attack and stroke, cardio-vascular disease kills 16.7 million people every year. That's one third of all deaths worldwide. And please don't think that this is all coming from wealthy countries. Two thirds of those deaths are coming from low and middle-income nations. There's probably not a one of us who doesn't know someone who's had a heart attack or a stroke. Well, if we had been having this discussion back in 1901, almost none of us would have known anyone who'd had a heart attack or a stroke. And yet by 2020, the World Health organisation estimates that there will be around 25 million cardio-vascular disease deaths worldwide. It's on the increase. It's the same with cancer, same with diabetes, same with obesity. People we are eating ourselves into an early grave. And the more research that comes out, the more it all points to the so-called Western Diet. I believe, I know that God gave you and me the most amazing bodies, and the reason we're dedicating a few weeks to talking about this stuff on this program, is because I want to help you avoid becoming a victim of your western diet influences. The thing that sets the western diet apart as we've seen if you've been able to join me, is not it's fat content – there are plenty of instances of traditional diets high in animal fats where the people have a zero rate of cardio-vascular disease, diabetes and obesity – the thing that sets it apart is the high content of processed and refined carbohydrates. Sugar: there's sugar in just about every processed food you buy in the supermarket, white flour, white rice. Sweet drinks, sweet sauces, sweet cereals, sweet just about everything. Last week I shared with you that my top secret for losing 25 kgs (that's 55 lbs) that's a lot of weight, was simply removing refined carbohydrates from my diet. I just want to talk about that a bit more today, because people are shocked. Some think I'm crazy. Others put it down to another fad diet thing. I told someone about it recently, and they said, ‘but aren't you hungry?' We are so conditioned to believe that refined carbohydrates are a normal part of a healthy diet. But they're simply not! If you turn the clock back a century – back to the days when cardio-vascular disease, diabetes, cancer, Alzheimer's disease, obesity and a string of other diseases (which today are pandemics on the increase) were almost completely unknown – the one thing that stands out like a sore thumb, is that refined carbohydrates were a complete rarity in people's diets. People want to know, ‘Well, Berni, if you don't eat bread and cereal and tomato sauce and cakes and biscuits and chips and stuff, what in goodness' name do you eat?' That's the question I'd like to answer for you today, as I sit here with my blood pressure normal, my blood sugar normal, my triglycerides and bad cholesterol low, my good cholesterol high. I wish I could have invited you to dinner last night. It was awesome. My wife Jacqui cooked a roast vegetable salad while I grilled some tandoori chicken on the BBQ. The salad was stunning. She cut up zucchinis, peppers or capsicums, mushrooms, baby tomatoes, onions, beans (I actually can't remember all the veggies that were there) and drizzled them with healthy olive oil and roasted them for half an hour in the oven. Preparation time – about 10 minutes. We then tossed the roasted veggies in a bit of vinegar, added a little salt and pepper and served them up warm with the tandoori chicken that I'd cooked. What was missing was any sauce with sugar in it. What was missing was roast potatoes or white rice or white pasta that would spike your blood sugar level and produce nasty triglycerides in your blood. But do you know, those veggies contained all the carbohydrates my body needs. I had a stack of them too; they tasted exquisite. The meal contained mostly carbs, some protein and some fat – the way a meal is meant to – only the carbohydrates were tucked away inside a whole bunch of natural fibre, which made them slower to digest. Meaning I wouldn't get hungry for a long time, and my blood sugar wouldn't spike. That's how people ate back at the beginning of the 20th century. In fact that's how they've been eating for millennia – plenty of unrefined carbs, unrefined grains which are slow to digest, with plenty of fat – animal fat included and plenty of protein. If we had the courage to turn the clock back 150 years on our diet, to a time when obesity, diabetes and cardio-vascular disease were virtually non existent, what we'd doubtless discover, is that many of the diseases that are the products of the 20th and 21st century western diet would go away. And the exciting thing is that the food is fantastic. My biggest insight? Vegetables rock. Animal fat, rather than increasing my cholesterol levels, actually keeps your blood sugar under control, keeps your appetite under control, and doesn't make you fat. The research is done. The studies are in. And I'm walking proof. There is so much fantastic, natural food out there, and if we were prepared to go for it what we would discover is a whole new food sensation, a healthier body, a body that ages much more slowly, a body that is mentally and physically sharper and far less prone to 20th century diseases. Are you serious about looking after that one body you've been given? Really? So, what are you going to do about it? You are what you eat. Slowing Down the Ageing Process Now that I'm in my mid fifties, I've been doing a lot of reading and research about is the process of ageing. What I've observed is that you can take two people of the same age, and one looks much younger than the other. A smoker will often look much older than a non–smoker of the same age. A person who is significantly overweight will often behave much older as their leg and hip joints struggle with the weight, than a person who is not overweight. I see people who are my age using walking sticks, or hobbling, or finding it hard to get up out of a chair. Is that a random process, or is it something to do with the lifestyle that we lead? Does the process of ageing strike according only to the programming in our DNA, or are there environmental factors that influence ageing? In other words, is there something that you and I can do – in how we live – to slow down the ageing process. That's not a new thought, there's a lot of research going on in this area as our population ages. There are a few different theories of ageing. The most widely accepted one in the medical community is the free radical theory of ageing. You've probably heard of free radicals, but, much like me before I became interested in the ageing process, you haven't paid much attention to them. In a nutshell, the free radical theory of ageing goes like this: Many of the activities of life produce free radicals in our body – these are unstable molecules in search of a spare electron – we won't go too much into the molecular science here, or we'll be at it all day. Heavy exercise produces free radicals. Pollution produces free radicals. And these free radicals are unstable and highly reactive, looking to soak up a free electron from anywhere. Now, every cell in your body needs oxygen to survive – to create energy. Without it, you die. In your cells, energy is produced by tiny structures called mitochondria. It's a complex process, but think of the mitochondria as the power plant in each cell. The process involves free radicals. Most of them are contained, but some of them escape, a bit like some of the muck that comes out of the exhaust of a car. As soon as the free radical escapes, it's out there looking for a spare electron. And when it finds one to grab, the molecule that donated it now becomes an unstable free radical. And those free radicals do all sorts of horrible things in your body if they go unchecked, they create a chain reaction of molecular instability. A researcher in this field Dr Harman puts it this way: It is likely that the life span of an individual is primarily determined by the rate of mitochondria damage, inflicted at an increasing rate with age by free radicals arising in the mitochondria, in the course of normal respiration. Eventually as your mitochondria become less efficient from the accumulate free radicals, a vicious cycle begins. You produce more and more superoxide radicles and have less and less defence against them. Finally your body's various defence mechanisms are overwhelmed. This is exacerbated by very heavy exercise, by smoking, by pollutants and they tell us, by a diet rich in refined carbohydrates. That could explain for instance, why smokers often appear to be much older than their non–smoking peers. But here's the good news: this whole destructive process of free radicals is counteracted by things called antioxidants. Think of the effect of free radicals as the process of oxidising or rusting your body. Anti–oxidants are substances that have free electrons to give away, to stabilise free radicals, to bring your whole system into balance. Where do you get them? From foods rich in antioxidants, namely fruit and vegetables. In fact the brighter the colour of the fruit or vegetable, mostly the richer they are in antioxidants. Broccoli, spinach, berries, red and green and yellow capsicums or peppers, the brighter the better. An antioxidant is simply a substance that quenches a free radical by donating an electron, thereby ending the free radical chain of events that destroys mitochondria, and causes the body to age, and eventually to die. There's a very, very, very good reason why they keep telling us to eat lots of vegetables and fruits – because they're healthy for us and – this is how they contribute to our health (as well as the vita nutrients that they pump into our bodies). Contrast that with a diet high in refined carbohydrates which creates an over supply of insulin – hyperinsulinism it's called – to deal with all the sugars you're pumping into your body. And as one researcher put it, hyperinsulinism puts you in the ageing express lane. Agree with him or not, Dr Robert Atkins puts the whole thing in perspective as he writes this about the historical context of our diets: No human civilisation ever, has consumed a preponderance of carbohydrates in the form of refined products with most of their original vita-nutrient content discarded, until the 20th century westernised diet became prevalent. Eat your fruit and veggies – which by the way are stunning – and ditch the refined carbohydrates, and in one fell swoop you're introducing the antioxidants you need to slow the ageing process, and removing the greatest single cause of putting people into the ageing fast lane. That's it in a nutshell. God has a mighty plan for your life, but that plan can't and won't be fulfilled if you prematurely destroy the precious body that He's given you. Listen again to the Apostle Paul and what he says about this body you've been given: Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body. (1 Corinthians 6:19-20) And what we've been talking about, actually, is exactly what our parents told us around the table – eat your vegetables. It ain't rocket science, is it? The Impact of Exercise Now if you were able to join me last week, you'll know that in this whole healthy living series, we had a bit of a chat about exercise. But if you heard that message, don't tune out, because we're going to circle back and pick up something important that could change your life. I know that there are some people listening today who don't have easy access to motorised transport but way too many people are living a sedentary existence. Sitting in front of computer screens all day –rarely walking anywhere, let alone working up a sweat. I'm like that and so, for much of my adult life, I did almost no exercise whatsoever. And the less exercise you do, the less you want to do. Deep down, I knew that my sedentary life style wasn't exactly making me healthy. When you added to that a diet high in refined carbohydrates, sugars and the like, I was heading for diabetes and cardio-vascular disease. I was an absolute Monty for a heart attack or stroke. My father died of complications related to Type II Diabetes – and it seemed that I was walking in his footsteps. Did you know that single biggest statistical indicator of an impending heart attack isn't your blood triglyceride or cholesterol levels – it's a lack of exercise. Inactive men for instance have nearly four times the risk of developing diabetes compared with just moderately physically active men. Active lifestyle by the way is also linked with significantly reduced cancer risk. And exercise is the key factor – THE KEY FACTOR – in preventing disability as you age. People who exercise regularly have a substantially lower risk of becoming disabled later in life. In fact the research clearly demonstrates that disability is not an inevitable part of aging. It can easily be defied by moderate physical activity, starting … now! It's also a key overall factor in your longevity of life. Are you getting the picture here? Am I making you feel uncomfortable by being that direct about all of this? Oh good. That's what's meant to be happening, if you're one of the people who is where I used to be. I want it to sink in that you are cruising towards a certain early demise – if not immediate death, then an unhealthy, uncomfortable life. Now so far in this series I've talked a lot about dietary choices and the impact of those choices on our health, our wellbeing and our lifespans. But now I want to tell you some things that are going to get you motivated to start introducing deliberate exercise into your routine. Three simple things to get you moving off your backside. Here's the first one: Some exercise is better than no exercise. Let me say it again, some exercise is better than no exercise. And you would be surprised at how low a level of exercise starts to reduce your risks around cardiovascular disease and diabetes. Are you ready? A brisk walk for a half-an-hour at least three times a week will significantly improve your health outcomes. Every day or most days is better. But just three half-hour walks at whatever constitutes a brisk pace for you, is all it takes. I know, I know – you don't have time right? You have a long commute. You have kids to worry about. You work long hours. I know all of the excuses cause I used to use them all. Remember to tell them all to your cardiologist when you're lying on the stretcher in the emergency ward, trying to live through your heart attack would you? At some point we all need to come to grips with how utterly ridiculous the “I don't have time” excuse really is. If you don't have time to exercise, then you'd better get your affairs in order, because you'll be making time to be sick … or dead. Here's the second simple thing that is going to get you moving – learn to exercise your options. We don't all like the same thing. I absolutely love walking. You may not. Okay then, choose something that you do enjoy. Some people love to get on a treadmill and watch TV or listen to music or a podcast. A guy I used to work with Ron, he's retired now, he loved swimming in the mornings and now, in his mid seventies, owns a sheep farm and is a fit as a fiddle. There are so many options and most of them are free. Just pick one – the one you like, the one you enjoy – and do some moderate levels of exercise. There is never a time where I am telling you to become a marathon runner. In fact, there's a lot of evidence that very heavy exercise creates lots of free radicals, reduces your immune response, and can impact severely on your bones and joints, particularly as you get older. Moderate exercise at a brisk pace, three, four or five times a week for a half-an-hour is all we're talking about. And here's the third great bit of news: when you exercise moderately you're going to change your dietary choices almost automatically. Why? There's a simple psychology that when you invest the time and energy in a bit of exercise, you're not going to want to undo it all by shoving a packet of crisps or a bar of chocolate down your gullet. And really, I found that the positive reinforcement of moderate exercise really helped me change my dietary behaviour that contributed significantly to weight loss. Doesn't matter what age you're at, what fitness level you're at, it is never too late so start with some moderate exercise. And the wonderful thing about the amazing body that your God has given you is that it will guide you as to what is the right level of exercise. Starting off with something that works for you is absolutely the right thing to do – and little by little, as your fitness levels improve and your dietary levels change, you end up feeling so much better. Yesterday afternoon I went down to the local gym that I'm a member of (which is in itself a miracle) and ran and walked 6 km in 45 minutes, worked up a sweat, pumped some iron, and came out feeling fantastic. That is such a long way from the days when I was grossly overweight … it all started with the first step. Remember – some exercise is better than no exercise. And your life depends on it.
Today we have journalist Gary Taubes making a repeat appearance on STEM-Talk to discuss his new book, “The Case for Keto: Rethinking Weight Control and the Science and Practice of Low-Carb/High-Fat Eating.” Our interview with Gary in 2016, episode 37, followed the release of his book, “The Case Against Sugar,” which went on to become a New York Times best seller. “The Case for Keto” is Gary's fourth book about diet and chronic disease. Gary made national headlines in 2002 when he wrote an article for the New York Times Magazine challenging the low-fat orthodoxy that had held sway in America since the 1970s. In the article, titled “What if It's All Been a Big Fat Lie,” Gary wrote that perhaps Dr. Robert Atkins with his Atkins Diet was correct in suggesting that it's not fat that makes us fat, but carbohydrates. Our conversation with Gary covered a lot of ground, and we have divided his interview into two parts. Today we talk to Gary about his reasons for writing the new book and how opinions on a low-carb and high-fat diet have changed over the past 20 years. In part two of our interview with Gary, we dig deeper into his efforts to set the record straight about the role of diet and weight control in preventing chronic diseases, as well as the role that diet plays in helping people improve their health spans. Gary turned to journalism back in the 1970s after receiving his master's degree in aeronautical engineering from Stanford University. Today, he continues to practice journalism and is the founder and director of the Nutrition Science Initiative. Show notes: 00:03:43 Dawn welcomes Gary back to STEM-Talk and asks how things went for him as a writer during COVID-19 and the lockdowns. 00:04:24 Dawn gives some background on Gary's new book The Case for Keto, which is his fourth book to follow and expand upon a 2002 article he wrote for the New Times Magazine titled, “What if It's All Been a Big Fat Lie?” She asks Gary if he ever anticipated writing four books about the relationship between diet and chronic disease when the article came out 20 years ago. 00:06:09 Ken mentions that Gary's New York Times Magazine article questioned the effectiveness of low-fat diets, which the government's dietary guidelines had been recommending since the late 1970s. Ken adds that almost overnight Gary become public health enemy number one, and asks Gary if he expected so much pushback as a result of the article. 00:10:53 Dawn describes how the release of Michael Pollan's book The Omnivore's Dilemma, which draws on work by both Gary and Dr. Atkins, seemed to change consumers' eating habits. Dawn then asks Gary if he remembers seeing or being surprised by the disappearance of pasta and bread from restaurants and grocery shelves. 00:14:41 Ken notes that in the blurb Michael Pollan wrote for the jacket of Gary's 2007 book, Good Calories, Bad Calories, Michael said the book would change the way people think about eating. While Gary's work did not end up changing national heart, health and diet guidelines, low-carb and ketogenic diets have become quite popular since then. Ken asks Gary what he thinks is driving this interest in keto. 00:19:41 Dawn describes Gary's 2011 best seller Why We Get Fat as a condensed summary of the research contained in Good Calories, Bad Calories combined with new research on hormonal-based weight gain. She mentions Gary's argument that the medical community and the federal government has misinterpreted scientific data on nutrition over the past several decades in developing a U.S. food policy that recommends a low-fat diet. Dawn notes there has recently been a steady accumulation of studies supporting carbohydrate restriction and the safety of saturated fat since Gary's first two books came out. She asks Gary if this trend has been rewarding to watch. 00:22:47 Ken mentions that Gary's new book, The Case for Keto, is an attempt to rectify decades-old misunderstandings people have had ab...
People are getting fatter, it seems, by the minute. Obesity, even amongst children, is becoming a global pandemic. Over the past few years, Berni Dymet has lost 25 kgs – that's 55 lbs – in weight. And is effortlessly keeping it off. Secret Number 1 Are you ready for secret number 1? Here we go. Back in the 1800s we ate about 7 kg (that's 15 lbs) of sugar a year. Today, that's topping out at 70 kg (or 150 lbs). The crazy thing is, we kind of think that's normal, but before the early 20th century, the only way you could get sugar in your diet at all was to fight the bees for some honey (there was no farming or mass production the way there is today), or to be near an apple tree when it was in season (once a year), or chew on a log called sugar cane because 99% of it's log, and only 1% of it is sugar. What we consider normal today, in a historical perspective, is grossly abnormal. It's our high consumption of sugar and other refined carbohydrates that's very clearly at the heart (pardon the pun) of so-called western diseases of obesity – cardiovascular disease (that's heart attacks and strokes), and diabetes. In fact the research shows that within 20 years of a western diet high in refined carbohydrates, making it into a country, almost like clockwork, heart disease, stroke, obesity and Diabetes simultaneously appear, but don't just take my word for it. If you're online, go to YouTube and watch the video “Bitter Truth” by Professor of Paediatrics, Robert Lusdig. The high refined carbohydrate intake isn't just killing us and disabling us. It means that in many countries now, childhood obesity (previously unheard-of) is a pandemic. So here's my number 1 secret for losing the 25 kg which I have lost, and am now able to keep off without ever having to think about it: I have as completely as possible removed both sugar and other refined carbohydrates (white flour, peeled potatoes, white rice) from my diet, and I know you might think that I'm crazy, but hear me out. When I came to the conclusion that refined carbohydrates were at the heart of my problem, my wife and I went through our pantry and we removed everything that contained refined carbohydrates: Barbecue sauce, 42% sugar by weight; the breakfast cereals were 35% sugar; fruit juice (see I thought fruit juice was healthy); cakes; chips; chocolates; cookies; white bread; Thai sauces – pretty much anything and everything that had been refined and prepared by someone else, and do you know? There was almost nothing left. It was really demoralising – I mean really, and the first week for me was hard not having any sugar, ‘cos I was addicted to the stuff. I used to kid myself that I wasn't, but actually I was. The researchers bred rats without taste-buds, and they put two clear fluids in their cages: One was water with sugar, the other was water with cocaine, and each rat became addicted to the sugar solution. The change in our diets was radical because just about everything out there has sugar and flour in it. We became a bit like our friend Bill who's a Celiac. He always has to check everything before he eats, and now, we're kind of the same. I check the label; I ask the waiter, and I will not allow refined carbohydrates to enter my mouth. Now I know, I know; you think I'm nuts. Well let me tell you what happened. The weight just fell off me. Now let me tell you: I still eat butter, cheese, bacon – all the high-cholesterol things that traditional medicine tells you is bad for you. I'm going to talk more about that a little bit later, because my doctor is over-the-moon with my blood test results. I eat as much as I want whenever I want, and I lost 25 kg (that's 55 lbs). It was the moment I removed all those refined carbohydrates. Look, the withdrawal of sugar lasted about a week, and then I was fine. But when I removed those refined carbs, I lost my appetite; I just wasn't that hungry anymore, and here's the science behind that. When you eat refined carbs with a high glaecemic index, your body digests them very quickly. In an instant, your blood sugar spikes, so now your body's pumping insulin into your bloodstream because insulin is the stuff that processes the blood sugar into energy, and the surplus into fat. A spike in your blood sugar produces a strong insulin response, and the insulin is so effective in mopping up your blood sugar quickly, you're left with a really low level of blood sugar, and what does that tell your body? It says: ‘I'm hungry!' What's your response? You eat. You go for something that's going to give you a quick fix, so your blood sugar pumps up rapidly again, and down again and up again and down again ... Your insulin is pumping way too high, and right there, you have the beginnings of insulin resistance, metabolic syndrome, and Diabetes. As soon as you remove the spikes, most of your hunger goes away. That's the reason I can eat whatever I want whenever I want – because I now want less food and I want it less frequently. And that my friend, in a nutshell, is how I lost 25 kg. And have for the first time in my life ever kept it off without trying. All I do is I avoid refined carbohydrates. I don't have to think what I eat; how much I eat; when I eat ... That's easy to do. I walk past those sweet muffins at the café which they put right at eye level to look and to smell stunning, and do you know? There's not a single twinge of desire in my body to have one because I've broken the addiction to the sugar and the carbohydrates. I no longer need the fix, so I look at that, and I don't want it. I've been through the withdrawal, and the desire is gone. Now what I've just told you may sound completely counter-intuitive. How can the guy still be having bacon and eggs for breakfast, and losing weight? But the truth is, almost every truth is counter-intuitive. Hey; love your enemy. Take up your cross. Blessed are the meek. Those things are all counter-intuitive, and yet it's true. But God's also given you and me a brain, and I don't want you just to take my word for it. Here are three sources that I access frequently to wrap my mind around the rights and the wrongs of what to eat: The first is the book “Sweet Poison” by lawyer and author David Gallesby, who like me was grossly obese, and given his gifted legal mind, he applied his forensic investigation skills to understand what was going on with his epidemic of weight-gain, and how to lose weight. The second is that YouTube video by Professor Robert Lusdig called “Bitter Truth” (it's right there on YouTube), and finally there's a fantastic blog and website by a brilliant young doctor, Peter Attier. The site is called www.eatingacademy.com All 3 are brilliant, and if you're a person whose lifestyle and waistline and blood sugar tests and blood lipid tests aren't what they should be, my friend, it's time for you to wrap your mind around this stuff, and do something about it because next month, next year, could be too late. My secret number 1 for losing 25 kg is this: Get rid of the sugar and other refined carbohydrates in your diet, and watch the weight fall straight off you. Secret Number 2 When I reduced the sugar and refined carbohydrates in my diet, not only did the weight come tumbling off without me having to starve myself or go hungry, but my blood cholesterol and triglycerides (those things that tell you whether you're at risk of heart attack or stroke) – they improved so dramatically, it had my doctor asking, "What have you done?" See, for years, he'd been telling me to reduce my cholesterol by going on a low-fat diet: Limiting dairy products (no more than 2 eggs a week) – the traditional things that doctors tell you to do, and for years I'd been trying to do that, but it just didn't work. In fact, I'm not the only one. The whole idea of low-fat diets emanated from a flawed study done by a man named Ansell Keyes back in 1939. He promoted the ‘Fat makes you fat' message, so he did this study of some 20 countries, and he chose just 7 of those to demonstrate that increased fat consumption was making people fat. Had he reported the findings of all 20 countries, he simply wouldn't have been able to say that; and in fact, had he chosen 7 different countries out of the 20, he would have proven exactly the opposite, but there's a certain elegant simplicity about the message that fat makes you fat, so by the 1960s and 70s the idea of a low-fat diet was in full swing, and it's still being promoted today. The only problem is that over that same time, obesity rates have climbed dramatically. See, the low-fat thing, whichever way you look at it, isn't working. And that, my friend, is something that I've proven over my life, as over and over again, with the yoyo effects of dieting, losing over 20 kg (45 lbs) 7 times in my lifetime, and each time stacking it back on again, whilst watching my fat intakes very carefully and wondering why I still had a fatty liver (which is a precursory to cirrhosis and cancer), and why I just couldn't keep the weight off. So, finally, having lost 25 kg (55 lbs) these last few years the easy way, virtually eliminating processed and refined carbohydrates from my diet, I came upon secret number 2: Replacing those bad calories, the ones that kept causing my blood sugar levels to spike and then to plummet, making me hungry all the time, with good calories. Now whilst Ansell Keyes was promoting the low-fat approach to dieting, there was another man (you may well have heard of him) called Doctor Robert Atkins – famous for the Atkins Diet, promoting low-carbohydrate diets, which didn't limit the fat intake. Now I've read the Keyes studies and I've read the Atkins approach, and whilst I always thought that those Atkins people were nutters, I decided to give it a go. So I replaced the chips and cakes and bread rolls and mash potatoes and all that stuff with three things, and here is secret number 2: Lots of vegetables. Every colour; every variety; cooked; raw; salads; stews ... You name it and I am into vegetables. Secondly with protein: Lots of meat and fish of all kinds. Well, neither of those things are particularly controversial, are they? But the third one is: Fat. And not the fats that they tell you are healthy – the polyunsaturated margarines (the research is telling us that those manufactured oils, created in a laboratory and in a factory are actually bad for us), but saturated fats – animal and monounsaturated fats, like olive oil. See, I no longer restrict my fat intake. In fact, hang in there ‘cos I haven't gone crazy. My high-sugar content cereal breakfast of fruit juice and tinned fruit and muesli; total sugar content, around 45% by weight, has now been replaced by eggs fried in butter, bacon, spinach, and fried tomatoes. Why did I do that? As an experiment. Here was an alternate theory: ‘Cos the low-fat one I'd believed in for most of my life, the low-fat message that made so much sense, had simply failed to deliver and hadn't worked. And as much as that was totally counter-intuitive, that having so-called bad fats in my diet would help me lose weight, I had nothing to lose; I gave it a spin, and I decided to do it for 3 months. I would not restrict my fat intake, but would make sure that very few refined carbohydrates ever passed my lips. Remember that green, red, yellow, purple, orange vegetables are all actually packed full of carbohydrates, so I still have plenty of carbs in my diet. The difference is that the carbs I'm now eating in vegetables are packaged inside fibre, which makes them much slower to digest, avoiding any spikes in my blood sugar, and the tummy-rumbling plummet in blood sugar that follows. So, what happened? What were the results? Well, firstly, I am now seriously addicted to vegetables, and I've rediscovered a whole bunch of fantastic vegetables that I'd forgotten. Secondly, the fat that I'm eating has not increased my cholesterol or triglyceride readings. To the contrary: Bad cholesterol and triglyceride readings are down, and good cholesterol, the HDL type, is high. The reason is simple. See, most of your cholesterol in your body (85%) is actually produced by your liver and your small intestine, and your diet has very little influence over your blood cholesterol levels. And finally, I simply wasn't as hungry anymore. Not as often, not as much, and to this day I can basically eat what I want (other than refined carbohydrates) and not put on any weight. The key is, I want a lot less because I'm not that hungry anymore. Now if you'd told me at the beginning of my 3-month experiment that this would be the outcome, I'd have said to you: ‘You are nuts!' Do I still get hungry sometimes between meals? Yeah, occasionally, so I go for a handful of incredibly healthy nuts, a piece of cheese, some left-over protein, chicken, or whatever happens to be in the refrigerator. 25 kg (which is what I've lost over the last few years) is as heavy as a heavy suitcase, and I was carrying that round in my body. I mean, no wonder my joints were hurting. No wonder I didn't want to exercise. No wonder I was always tired. I spent most of my adult life carrying that incredibly heavy suitcase strapped to my body in the form of fat. That's a scary thought. When you think about this stuff, as radical as this approach might seem, in a historical context, it's not radical at all. It's simply winding the clock back a century or so to eat exactly the sort of foods that my grandparents were eating in the late 1800s and early 1900s when (listen carefully) heart disease, stroke and diabetes were as rare as hens' teeth. Before Ansell Keyes sold us this lie that that fat makes you fat. Hey, I'm not your doctor, and I'm not here to give you medical advice, but because so many people have asked me, I'm just telling you what I did, and how it worked. Secret Number 3 See, I have a confession to make. I have never, ever, ever enjoyed running. Every now and then you hear of some big fitness event being organised, and they have the hide to call it a fun run. What, are they mad? Running has never been fun for me – ever, ever, ever. In fact, in my younger years, I trained to be an officer in the Australian army – 4 years at the royal military college of Duntroon, which is the UK's equivalent of Sandhurst and America's West Point. And do you know? I was almost kicked out in my final year for failing the cross-country run by 22 seconds – twice! So when I talk about exercise, I want you to understand where I'm coming from, and what I'm going to say is perhaps not what you think I'm going to say. The prevailing wisdom is that in order to lose weight and get into shape, you need to do exercise. And by spending all those calories on exercising, and restricting the calories you consume, you create a calorie deficit that causes you to draw on your fat reserves and lose weight. That's the theory. In fact, the whole exercise and fitness industry is worth billions of dollars every year. It's booming, and have you noticed? People are getting fatter and fatter. If you've been able to join me this week, you'll have heard me share with you that I have lost more than 20 kg (that's 45 lbs) 7 times in my life, and each time except this last time, I've put all the weight back on again. Anyone who's ever tried to lose that kind of weight will tell you that 20 kg is a Herculean effort; it's huge. Think about it. Each kilo of human body fat contains 7700 calories of energy, so to lose just 1 kilo, you need to create a deficiency between the energy you spend and the energy you consume of 7700 calories. That's hard work. And so when I lost all that weight all those times before, I would set about creating as much of a deficit between my energy output and energy consumption as I could possibly force my body to do, in order to burn the fat. Hey; at one stage, I was walking 20 km a day (that's 12-and-a-half miles a day) and consuming only around 1100 calories. In other words, I was starving myself. It took a lot of time; it required a lot of work; a lot of dedication; a lot of willpower over many, many months to lose the weight that way; and as soon as I stopped doing it, I'd put it straight back on again. Bottom line: With my own life and blood and sweat and tears I have proven that exercising doesn't help you lose weight in a way that will cause you to keep it off, and the reason is that if you're constantly hungry, well that's something you can't sustain. You can't fight your appetite every day for the rest of your life. When you spend calories exercising, your body automatically wants to replace them by eating, and if you bother to study the research (which now I finally have), that's exactly what the research tells you. Study after study proves exactly that fact. So here's my secret number 3: Exercise is not a mainstay in helping you lose weight because it increases your appetite. Now if you're living on a diet high in processed and refined carbohydrates, you're actually breaking your finely tuned appetite control mechanism. By applying secret number 1, drastically reducing those refined carbs in your diet, to allow your brilliantly sophisticated appetite control feedback loop to start working properly again, and now all of a sudden you're going to eat less; not because you're forcing yourself to, but naturally because you want to – because your appetite system is working the way that God meant it to work. If you don't believe me, try it. Now all of a sudden, exercise takes on an entirely different role in your healthy lifestyle. You're no longer beating your head up against a brick wall, trying to exercise to lose all this weight, which the studies tell us simply doesn't work. Now, you're exercising to be healthy. Do you know what the biggest single indicator of an impending heart attack is statistically? Is it high cholesterol? No. Is it high triglycerides? No. Is it high blood pressure? No. It's not even being overweight. The single greatest indicator of an impending heart attack statistically is a lack of exercise. But when you're carrying all that weight, you don't feel like exercising. Believe me, I know. I used to sit there on the couch in the evening, having consumed a high-carb snack like chips or something, and I'd feel so tired and lethargic. I couldn't bring myself to get up, put my runners on, and walk out the front door. But once I'd lost the weight, by doing what I've been talking about (modifying my diet, taking the refined carbs out and replacing them with really good stuff – the stuff our grandparents were eating when heart disease and Diabetes were rare as hens' teeth), I discovered I had so much energy that I needed to exercise, so these days I walk rather briskly about 7 km (or just under 4-and-a-half miles) most days. It takes me about an hour, and if for some reason a couple of days go by without me being able to get out there and go for a walk, I start getting really twitchy and just ... I just have to get out there and exercise because I have all this energy. Sometimes I run for part of it, but only because I have excess energy to burn and I feel like it. I never take a watch; I never time myself; I don't make it a competition against myself or anybody else. I just get out there for a brisk walk and I enjoy the fresh air, and I do it because I feel like it – not because I have to. I'm not training for a marathon; I'm just getting my body to be mobile. Now walking may not be your thing. You might enjoy bike-riding or swimming or playing basketball or going to the gym. We're all different, but once the weight has started to come off you, once you've removed those refined carbs, replaced them with good calories and the weight is just falling off your body, I guarantee you are going to want to go and exercise. Your body is amazing. The desire to exercise when the weight comes off is as certain as night following day. It's natural. Let me ask you something: Is this good news or what? I mean, you and I have been given this incredibly amazing body by God. He hand-crafted you and He hand-crafted me in our mothers' womb, and laid down every strand of DNA that makes us who we are. The moment this western diet gets dumped on us, the fizzy drinks full of sugar; the white bread; the sugar-laden cereal; all the stuff made with white flour; the fruit juices that have the fibre removed and leave the poisonous sugar in … The moment that gets dumped on us, either from birth (because we're born in a western country) or as the western diet gets introduced to the country where we live, we end up breaking the finely tuned appetite control system that God designed and gave to each one of us. That's what we do: We break it; we fool it; we keep having our blood sugar spiked, and then it plummets and we're hungry, and up and down and up and down, and that's where insulin resistance begins. That's where premature ageing begins. That's where Diabetes and metabolic syndrome and heart disease begins. You take all of that stuff away, you lose weight; you feel so much better, and you want to go and exercise. And you know what exercise does? Exercise attacks the triglycerides in your bloodstream. Exercise puts all sorts of good hormones back in your bloodstream. May God bless you as you take hold of your life (your eating habits) and get your body, the only one that you'll ever be given here on this earth, back into a healthy condition – the sort of condition that God meant for it to be in.

Macadamia nuts have long been a go-to snack for low carb dieters. Dr. Robert Atkins was said to love macadamias. He had good reason to, even aside from the buttery deliciousness of the nuts. Now even the FDA sees goodness in the macadamia.
Eric Rhein's work chronicles his life experience and travels, both geographic & mystic; his childhood in the Appalachian Mountains and New York's Hudson Valley, and his nearly three decades living with HIV. Arriving in New York City in 1980, 18-year-old Rhein became a part of the vital East Village arts scene, a unique community which permanently altered the city's cultural and creative landscape—and which was in turn deeply altered by the AIDS crisis. Rhein's first New York works, butterfly puppets constructed for George Balanchine, sparked an interest in the use of linear elements—a formal theme that recurs in his work. After his diagnosis in 1987, Rhein began exploring themes of vulnerability, resilience and transcendence. In 1996, the year protease inhibitors restored Rhein's physical vitality, he began his ongoing series, Leaves, which honors the lives of over 250 men and women he knew who died of complications from AIDS. Leaves continues to evolve and be shown internationally. Art historian and AIDS activist Robert Atkins wrote, “Art has always played a role in coming to terms with collective tragedy, and the role of an artist has frequently been to bear witness. Surely an art of memory like Eric Rhein's can help harmonize our views by suggesting that honoring the past is one way to live more fully in the present.” Rhein's considered and intuitive use of repurposed objects is a hallmark of his art, employing materials as varied as wire, pages from vintage scientific journals and literature, hardware, jewelry, crystals and other found objects. Gathered from locations as varied as Japan, Thailand, France, and the streets of New York, he handles these salvaged materials with empathetic reverence. For Rhein, the act of giving cast-offs a new life mirrors the artist's own spiritual path, as well as his evolving relationship with HIV.
