So did I, although the food the first one gave examples of eating plants eg muffins with coconut oil.

Same here

I just saw that too 😂 So confused 🫤

yep, lol, so who to believe? I say in trust in nature, if man made it dont eat it...

So we have two approaches. Ok try one for the 6 months unless numbers go bad. No change or little improvement. Try plan 2 for 6 months. Different strokes for different folks. I see 2 chances beyond pills.

tumourfreetim well done, mate!

Stay strong!💪💪💪💪

Jim Mim Dear Jim Mim unfortunately this stage 4 cancer lung cancer was very a real experience and the most challenging and terrifying experience that I have faced in my life. I cannot even begin to convey the shock of being told I would not live to see my daughter graduate from year 12 or my son play in the summer basketball season in 2017. The radiotherapy, immunotherapy and chemotherapy was administered by Olivia Newton-John Cancer and Wellness Centre at Austin Hospital. My terminal diagnosis documentation by my oncologist was accepted by an income protection insurance company. As an elected official there is public documentation in council minutes of the offical leave. I have substantial documentation that I needed to supply the Federal Family Law Courts as I was divorced in this period and in Australia your terminal status will lower your settlement as a terminal cancer patient. During this illness I lost my marriage, my main income, many friendships and face greatly reduced employment prospects because as public figure I cannot conceal my illness and I am required to supply potential employers a medical certificate that identifies my recent medical condition. So if your assertion is I did not have stage 4 lung cancer then you are slandering me as my illness and treatment is recorded by a large public Hospital, a large municipal council, a letter signed by the Minister of Local Government, the Federal Family Law Court of Australia, Australia’s largest superannuation company Australian Super, numerous CT and PET scans, and my scans, were referred, diagnosed and documented by my two private medical centres, a private lung specialist and finally I was admitted to Olivia Newton John Cancer Wellness Centre in Austin Hospital. Now can you supply any proof that you are a real person? Plus an address? Because you have just defamed me by claiming I did not have stage 4 lung cancer as you are asserting that I somehow tricked several government Ministers including the Premier, the largest super fund in Australia and several government institutions including one of the largest cancer centres and the Medicare system into treating me and processes leave and medical payments while not having cancer. So where is your proof that I did not have stage 4 lung cancer? You have a link here to tumourfreetim channel so you and your defamation lawyer may want to check that before you make further comments. The ball is now in your court to back up your claim. I have also taken the liberty of taking a screen shot of your your false, baseless and hurtful comment. Your baseless claim was distressing to read after having shared so many painful details for thousands of other terminal patients and their carers who have taken the time to visit my youtube channel tumourfreetim over the last 7 weeks. My continuing survival against the odds was not the result of any single treatment or action but caused by the dedicated application of the latest medical treatments available in Australia and complimented by dozens of diet and lifestyle changes. While my continuing survival may not accord with conventional thinking I guess that is the point. For more people to survive we need more governments to implement the changes we have underway in Victoria and the integrated health and wellbeing actions that I benefited from should be standard not just a rare and poorly understood case study.

Jim Mim You have no photo ID or subscribers with your UKposts account. Is there a reason for that? 😎

Jim Mim Sadly in my hospital I was told that in over 500 advanced cancer cases I am only 1 of 3 who have made such a radical remission. However, my sub type of lung cancer is less than 3% of lung cancers and is noted for both being chemotherapy resistant and prone to immune system blockers. These blockers are being addressed by a range of new immunotherapy drugs such as Nivolumab etc. A very high profile case being a famous footballer here in Melbourne. His recovery was big news as he not only returned to professionals Australian Rules football but went back as captain. However, trials and studies of immunotherapy are not magic and response rates in wide studies have not matched the sharemarket hype on all these drug companies. There is now a blood test in my State here that can indicate if immunotherapy will be supplied as the primary treatment. While I was able to reduce tumours in lungs, Thyroid and adrenal gland during the 7 month period I had immunotherapy I was not able to remove one small tumour in my left bronchial node. This was then treated with radiotherapy over 20 high dose treatments. This reduced that tumour. So if you took time to view my videos you would see no magic but 24 months of treatment by one of the best cancer hospitals in Australia strengthened by complimentary health and well being actions. This all on a universal medical system (Medicare). Sadly many in US and in developing countries cannot access such free medical treatment. The sheer cost of such new treatments is simply not financially possible if your medical system is not a properly funded universal one. Given that my cases highlights an integrated health model - eg diet and medication it means I am not selling or endorsing any one drug or any one herb. Your last post has contradictory figures on lung cancer 5 year death rates. It is worth patients looking those up regarding your claim of 100% mortality at 5 years.

They must have idiots in the kitchen or she got somebody else's food.

@@percyhawkins716 I don't blame the cooks... I blame the medical professionals

@@dfusa4869 You're probably right. The Docs probably weren't attentive or concerned enough to attend to the details.

@@percyhawkins716 Yeah, the main issue is the med school training. Big pharma/medical establishment doesn't want docs to know how to heal, but rather to be drug pushers! Thank God, it's slowly improving in the last few years since this video. More WFPB docs than ever before!

@@bryant475 yes they basically teach them which drugs to give for what conditions. They have maybe 1 nutrition class in all their training. And its appalling the food they serve in hospitals. Its a sick based healthcare system.

Yes it looks like anyone can promote their own fad diet under the ‘TED’ banner

People get sold on nutrient dense food by the gurus (understandable from the evolutionary standpoint but now it leads to many chronic diseases - we have better solutions). Population studies are important, not what the gurus say. Also personal experience but it can be very difficult to be objective.

I see it all the time. But there is no cure for diabetes. Everything in your body, that fights off sugar dies, and cannot be brought back to life. There are some people that can control it with diet alone. But this is managing diabetes, and not curing it.

I share your frustration. Completely contradictory "solutions"

It’s so weird. This guy is pushing processed “meats” and chemicals instead of plant fats. Why would an MD tell you to eat fake foods?

All the people he mentions lose weight, and we do know that losing weight helps with diabetes. That doesn't mean he's right about intramuscular lipids (fat) causing diabetes.

ZipplyZane he doesn't..

ZipplyZane omg, zipplyzane, you are in denial

PETER MAINWALD The "science" he gives here doesn't match up with the studies on the subject. It's not denial to recognize this. It *is* denial to keep saying something is right when the studies show it's not. Correlation is not causation. Just because you do something and something else happens doesn't mean the first caused the second. That is a fundamental concept of science. Something about this diet seems to work for some people. That's all we know. We don't know what it is, and the fact that so many lose weight,when we know that losing weight helps, makes a lot of sense.

ZipplyZane OR if he is right about it, that it is the root cause. Other doctors seem to be saying that always having carbs and sugars in the blood and stimulating insulin is what puts those lipids there, too many of them. The body is always on, always processing sugar and making fat because very few people can burn up so many calories. The food companies want to engineer food like a drug, it tastes to good unnaturally that we are compelled to eat it by our food instincts, and once we get past a certain point it is addicting. Those who are not addicted or who have stumbled on how to quit for them are so busy acting superior they do not look back at all the other people who are still stuck in this drug dealing business. The root cause to me is the food system itself. Some interesting facts I heard watching the movie "Fresh" which was a lot like "Food Inc". A lot of this stuff is tied up in our political and economic system, because crippling the public and making them dependent is what allows thugs to take over the public debate.

Keep going.. You're a hero.. 🤗👍

Great job! Are you still WFPB at 22? I hope so!

Who would willing to admit that their way of approaching this disease is flawed? Isn't that part of the problem we face as Americans? Everyone's an expert with no actual debates or actual data to prove which is the proven method. One last thing, I would want to know how those people that did the study that Dr. Neal studied to see how the participants are doing today, a decade later. I would be willing to listen to that debate.

@@ih8work1 Check out Cyrus Khambatta, PhD and Robby Barbaro MPH interviewed on Rich Roll podcast.

I just watched her before seeing this video. I thought the same as you.

This guy is probably paid by the American Diabetes Association. What he recommends is the same as doctors recommend and it keeps you sick and going back to the doctor until you go blind, get neuropathy, get amputations, go on dialysis and die. Sad but true, I know from experience, believe me.

I also watched this right after watching Dr. Hallbergs and I'm left with the same feeling. They said opposite things but the diets weren't exact opposites. Maybe both approaches work by affecting different parts of the food/glucose cycle. Maybe there are additional factors that would make one a better choice than the other on a case by case basis. Yes, I'd like to see them hash it out because otherwise it just leaves us still in the dark.

I'm back on Plant Based. I love it and it seems to work for me too. I crave veggies and fruits. So that is what my body is needing. I finished reading. :) I agree with what you said. I'm Team Plant Based :)

The fact is only one of them shows reversal of disease, the other one promotes disease. It's not just to lose weight, It's to be healthy!

Best comment about this entire topic I have read in 4+ years.

Ryan Oharra yes and high carbs will lead to insulin resistance as you age.

Excellent and thoughtful comment - and very well explained! I also get dismayed when "the one way" gets shouted from the rooftops! Humans evolved to thrive in a variety of food environments. There is more than one path to excellent health, and we should encourage each other in our journeys instead of "food shaming" those who choose a different way of eating.

Just a shame he is well off the mark with his advice.

@@lepus6511 Just keeping in the swim Levi just keeping in the swim . . . .

​@@dilwich He's not off mark with his advice, reducing foods high in sugar and fats helps with managing diabetes. Doesn't matter whether it's a vegan or some low-carb diet. If you eat lean meats it's fine, but reducing meat consumption is a must for most people as they eat it way more than they should.

But 5 years later you are still diabetic and obese.

The same happened to me after being vegan. I gained weight and became diabetic. Everyone beware.... unless you eat only greens you may become diabetic. Heartbreaking since I thought I was doing something good for myself. Despite having medical and nutritional knowledge.

Did you remove all oil from your diet when you were vegan?

@@Nina-hk7ub No. I used plant based butter

@@Carol-vv5cm That's no good! I know as a recently plant based person that it is difficult to maintain a healthy plant based diet. There are times when I drift from what I know is better for me, to what I know isn't as good. I am hoping that the good times will outweigh the not so good times!

Dan T See: "The Program For Reversing Diabetes" book and cookbook by Dr. Barnard.

Self promotion. Not an educational vid. The analogies were in some instances very poor and displayed a concerning lack of knowledge and understanding. Or maybe it was just dumbed down.

Chris Hunt The program is based on 3 steps. 1. Avoid animal products. 2. Keep oils low. 3. Choose low glycemic index, complex whole grain carbs.

There is no diet just lifestyle changes. Fruit, vegetables, legumes, starch, nuts and seeds, that's the basics

@@cityvisual self promotion of what? Evidence? Promotion of what, broccoli?

I eat the same except I try to avoid sugar, Stevia is okay. I reduced carbs... for example no pizzas and on hamburgers I throw away the top bun. No Olive Garden. I rotate between OMAD and 18-6. I will follow I.F. for life, it’s easy. Good luck with your journey.

Did the speaker talk about intermittent fasting? 🤔

But he was not talking about a low carb diet. Maybe a complex carb diet but rice is nothing but carbs. I'm confused.

wanted to ad theres many other simple things you can add to this, also some harder things if you feel aggressive just do a lil homework by simply watching of videos of docs who dont prescribe drugs....anymore (sorry BP).

I'm pretty sure Dr. Bernard said to reduce meat intake.

Check out Cyrus Khambatta, PhD and Robby Barbaro MPH interviewed on Rich Roll podcast.

But they 're not as short as the carnivore's intestines . Maybe they developed like something in between since humans started to cook their meat . Can't it raw like the predatorial carnivores . Apart from that , we do not have any other carnivorous characteristic . I've been a vegan for many years now . But I think your approach is very interesting about being one or the other in order to get rid of diabetes. Being an omnivore is probably a cause of many problems.

@Betsy Ross Inuits are largely carnivores and they don't have cancer

Are human beings anatomically more similar to natural carnivores or to natural herbivores? Let’s find out…. Intestinal tract length. Carnivorous animals have intestinal tracts that are 3-6x their body length, while herbivores have intestinal tracts 10-12x their body length. Human beings have the same intestinal tract ratio as herbivores. Stomach acidity. Carnivores’ stomachs are 20x more acidic than the stomachs of herbivores. Human stomach acidity matches that of herbivores. Saliva. The saliva of carnivores is acidic. The saliva of herbivores is alkaline, which helps pre-digest plant foods. Human saliva is alkaline. Shape of intestines. Carnivore bowels are smooth, shaped like a pipe, so meat passes through quickly - they don’t have bumps or pockets. Herbivore bowels are bumpy and pouch-like with lots of pockets, like a windy mountain road, so plant foods pass through slowly for optimal nutrient absorption. Human bowels have the same characteristics as those of herbivores. Fiber. Carnivores don’t require fiber to help move food through their short and smooth digestive tracts. Herbivores require dietary fiber to move food through their long and bumpy digestive tracts, to prevent the bowels from becoming clogged with rotting food. Humans have the same requirement as herbivores. Cholesterol. Cholesterol is not a problem for a carnivore’s digestive system. A carnivore such as a cat can handle a high-cholesterol diet without negative health consequences. A human cannot. Humans have zero dietary need for cholesterol because our bodies manufacture all we need. Cholesterol is only found in animal foods, never in plant foods. A plant-based diet is by definition cholesterol-free. Claws and teeth. Carnivores have claws, sharp front teeth capable of subduing prey, and no flat molars for chewing. Herbivores have no claws or sharp front teeth capable of subduing prey, but they have flat molars for chewing. Humans have the same characteristics as herbivores. But aren’t humans anatomically suited to be omnivores? Nope. We don’t anatomically match up with omnivorous animals anymore than we do with carnivorous ones. Omnivores are more similar to carnivores than they are to herbivores. The opportunistic feeder theory has been thoroughly debunked. This theory states that because humans can eat like omnivores, that we must therefore be omnivores. However, mere behavior doesn’t indicate suitability. There are plenty of things we can do as a species that would threaten our survival if we all considered them suitable default behavior, such as shooting each other, lobbing hand grenades, or sending spam. cut and paste from an article by steve pavlina

tell us more (-_-)

I went meat based from plant. And I feel fantastic about my body. And I enjoy my steak and doner much. And I appreciate lifestyle of our ancestors for at least of last 600000 years (paintings on cave walls etc) is mostly dedicated to hunting. So I appreciate now that my body is tuned to meat eating.

@@greenleafyman1028 I think there were not so much fruits in the Ice Age (when our ancestors left Africa). So Inuits or Saami will show how to survive in the Cold (definitely there is no bananas or potatoes around). P.S. Hunting is what drove human evolution. Pushing to tool making and dog domestication to cooperate in hunting. I am a phycisian so I have got some insights like requirement to Vit B12 or hem iron that we obtain from animal products. And the best proof is the fact that nothing is more enjoyable and palatable than a piece of juicy and lighty charred steak (just trust our Mother Nature, we humans crave for animal products, that's why many vegan products imitate just burgers, fish fingers, fried chicken etc. I have seen fake burgers made from soybean, but never seen fake banana made from mutton.

that's because sugar is causing hypertension, which you seem to have cut out to reduce blood pressure however if you keep eating the diet you're on now you'll run into another problem down the line.

RIP, that diet isn't sustainable long term

No that is not true.

84% of vegans and vegetarians return to meat. Google it.

El: there is no reason why anyone would be dehydrated without eating carbs. They don't have much to do with water retention, though salt does.

I'm so grateful for these doctors, scientists and innovators on ted and UKposts....These ideas are wonderful

and yet contradictory.

You would do better to watch videos from Dr. Eric Berg or Dr. Ken Berry. This video is 10 years old and the information has been proved mostly incorrect.

@@davidbrogan606 Then how do you explain the Japanese diet, high in carbs but a population with a much lower rate of diabetes? The truth is that there is probably more than one way to achieve remission of diabetes. The one common denominator seems to be weight loss and the diet used to achieve that may not be as important as the end result. I know a couple of people who had diabetes and had a gastric bypass to lose weight...After the weight loss their blood sugars returned to normal even though they never followed any special diet, and both had a complete remission of diabetes while eating whatever they wanted. I am familiar with both doctors Berg & Berry, but they obviously don't have all the answers either.

@@CaneFu The Japanese diet is far lower in carbs than the American diet. Other differences are that the Japanese actually eat vegetables with their rice. The fiber nullifies some of the carbs. The Japanese do not eat much sugar. The American diet is loaded with sugar and bad fats such as corn, soy, canola, and sunflower oils which are full of Omega 6 fatty acids that cause inflammation and harm the body. The Japanese do not eat nearly as many processed foods as Americans. That being said, there is plenty of diabetes in Japan.

@@CaneFu Oh, so the answer is--quit shoving food down your mouth at breakneck speed, constantly. Why is that so hard for people to do? Americans eat too much processed food, and don't eat any vegetables--a fast track to diabetes and death

I had exactly the same feeling when I watched it too. I immediately adopted a plant based diet. My LDL cholesterol dropped by 50% in 2 months. These keto scams will be responsible for countless premature deaths for years to come.

Also in Australia. I had an Uncle who had Diabetes Type 2 since he was 30 years old. He was obese or overweight for most of his life and unfortunately ignored the health advice he was given until soon before he died.

Sorry about your dad, yes this nutritional protocol works! It's Whole Food Plant Based :) Dr. Joel Fuhrman's "Eat to Live" Cookbook is a must have!

***** Timothy Noakes recently got diabetes!! Dave Apsrey has it and has to take metformin as well. So does Jimmy Moore!!

+Will Wraspir Hey Will, I used to think like you too, I looked at but avoided the keto diet thinking it was a fad. Now I'm on month 3 going on 4 and you don't "give in" and eat a bunch of carbs, your body actually adjusts, unlike all those other diets like Atkins I still eat carbs when I want to, thats how it should be. But I eat under 60g per day on average. I can go up to 100g if I feel the need, but I don't mostly, obviously it varies with activity level.

+Will Wraspir it is unsustainable not because low fat plant based is better but because we like our bread pasta rice desserts and chips

***** lol I just told you people in nutritional ketosis don't crave carbs, rather we adapt to having lower blood sugar. you are right, people get sugar cravings, because their blood glucose is too low for them. But, being a carb eater, you need more glucose in your blood than does someone in nutritonal ketosis. to each his own, I'm glad people are trying different things and increasing our knowledge .

***** no...I don't think our bodies need them any more than an alcoholic needs alcohol. It's a conditioned craving, like alcoholism. If a person is a carb loader and he has become so by consuming refined sugars and starches then that is what he will crave...and switching to green leafy veggies will not be satiating because he likely would not be able to consume enough volume in a day. You say you consume 3000-5000 calories per day...if I may ask, what is the macronutrient breakdown of your diet and the source of the carbohydrates?

Would love to hear how the progress has been

Are you suggesting fix what works ?

c'mon give him the credit at least for being part of a species

I don't know, but he has an organisation called PCRM (Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine). There are lots of advice, videos, & information on it.

On top of that, he dresses nice, and is clean cut.

Ya know on another channel he calls himself a doctor, an MD to be specific... But actually he's just an animal rights activist. Great observation Dave!

Yes, I watched that one also. However low carb high fat does not cure, it merely bypasses the need for insulin (to transport glucose into the cell) in the production of energy. It makes more sense to me to actually fix the problem (remove the fat from the cell) than change the body's primary fuel source (glucose) to a secondary source (fat).

That's a good start. Now it's time to step it up and go read some journals, books, textbooks .etc. and see what the literature says? What the majority of studies say? Then hopefully that'll clear up all this stuff? Or try a diet yourself, gather data on yourself then modify if it doesn't work?

The scientific literature says that vegans are leaner and have lower diabetes rates. care.diabetesjournals.org/content/32/5/791.short

Exactly me too, just now... thats why i have doubts regarding both of them...

What is really missing is exercise. Human have consumed meats forever, we need them, we also need exertion to keep our bodies in good working order.

I went vegan for 2 years and developed hypothyroidism and suffered a heart attack. I'm now on a Carnivore Diet and I'm off insulin and blood pressure meds, all my blood tests are perfect, I lost 70 lbs. and I feel great. Our bodies do not need carbs for anything whatsoever.

It's actually outdated. Most fruits contain natural sugars which goes under the carbohydrate macro-nutrient that ends up as glucose. You may want to consider looking in to Dr. Fung, Dr. Ken Berry etc...

24 hr fasting every day should do it rofl( joke ) in case someone tries it !

You'll find that our ancestors were hunter-gatherers. They were called that for a good reason, because most of their food came from hunting and fishing, supplemented by gathering some mushrooms, berries and roots. It would have been next to impossible to survive on a vegan diet in Northerly latitudes as edible plant food in the wild is unavailable for half of the year. We simply don't have the stomach to digest leaves and grass, so we have to rely on animal products to survive. Large scale industrial agriculture and global trade year round is the only thing that makes a vegan diet viable. In warmer climates, such as India, you can survive on a vegetarian diet, but not on a vegan one.

Just eating on a schedule in general think about it we don’t sleep at random takes through the week we sleep the same time and wake up the same time

@@Bigbottomgal Cavemen didn't have watches or clocks. They didn't even have electricity. They had to watch TV by candlelight.

Not in my experience. Didn't help my very high blood sugars at all, especially in the mornings. Only ketosis finally got rid of my insulin resistance and my need for medications.

@jaspal singh Quite true. All the comments about diabetes in these UKposts talks are about type 2. Type 1 is also called "(external) insulin dependent", since in type 1 the body cannot manufacture its own insulin.

That is true. It is hard to avoid blood sugar spikes on vegan diet. Years of sugar spikes -> serum insulin spikes -> insulin resistanse in 40s 50s.

@@happyTruePeople What do you suggest?

@@lilhoneybun5390 To avoid blood sugar level spikes by physiological means. So we can achieve it by Low Carb Diet. LCHF.

People like to hear good things about their bad habits.....

What you want is phytochemicals and antioxidants.
