All I would say it that
a study came out recently of 19000 people, which is a pretty large sample size.
No evidence of increased mortality overall though, so it looks like a case of pick your poison.
It may be a case, of course, that it's helpful for a specific health issue like diabetes, but personally I'd try and get an appointment with a dietician for that sort of thing rather than relying on Youtube experts.
Also make sure you do your research on who you listen to. This guy presents himself as Dr. Nick Zyrowski, but a quick look suggests he owns a company selling supplements. A
further bit of digging shows that he worked for 10 years as a chiropractor, and his education was a Life University, who claim to be a 'leading chiropractic and holistic health' uni. In other words, he's not a medical doctor, but uses the name 'doctor' in all of his public-facing work. Which isn't to say that what he's saying is wrong, but if it's right, I'd imagine you can find a better source that's not saying it as a way to sell you a bunch of shit.
You responded to my post 24 minutes after mine so you've obviously spent that time researching 'Dr Nick' and quickly deducing him as a charaltan instead of watching and listening to what he had to say. I have binged watched lots of fasting and nutrition and supplement advice on this subject and I'm learning fast on how the body works and I'm particularly interested in lowering my blood sugar to safe levels without ongoing prescription medication that I'll probably need more of if i don't sort my diet and lifestyle out myself.
And in time i will be no longer on type 2 medication and on an anti depressant, mark my words; )
I don't want to be another guinea pig for my GP to try out medication on me because he has a vested interest in pharmaceutical companies he gets a bung from for plying us full of drugs, some of which do more harm than good.
Fuck that! Mother nature provides most nutrients and vitamins in food and herbs which our forefathers used to consume without knowing the beneficial properties of what certain foods contained. And good old herbal remedies like using dandelion and burdock in a blood tonic donkeys years before it first became a carbonated pop. I know that because my dad used to get me to go to Harrops chemist in Ashton for a bottle.
Most Governments of the world want the masses to carry on eating sugary ultra processed junk food because there's fuckin' multi billions to be made from chronic heart disease kidney failure type 1 and 2 diabetes plus many other life shortening diseases. Many good healthy foods are expensive for a reason!
They tell us to eat plenty of fresh salmon but only the wealthy can afford the good stuff. They advertise fresh Scottish salmon as a super food packed 'dull' of goodness. Is is fuck its full of toxins and harmful chemicals and nasties from eating only high protein pellets in polluted water to fatten them up as soon as possible. All those nasties they eat we absorb when we eat! I wouldn't eat that shit for free.
Fatality rates particularly from cancer and heart and liver disease have never been as high and will only get higher because of all the junk we constantly feed our faces with.
Butter was frowned upon for many years as being a bad fat. It's been proven not to be but I've always eaten because it tastes great and a natural product unlike shite like margarine and I can't believe it's not butter type spreads. I can because it's fuckin' not butter and never will be.
Most South Asians have used ghee(clarified butter) for thousands of years until they were hoodwinked into using vegetable oil, why? Well probably because they thought it a healthy oil that was cheap. And it's since been proven that ghee is healthy and vegetable has fast become a very unhealthy oil that is a major cause of cancer and heart problems. Cancer was very rare before the use of ghee so another continent has sucummed to westernised foods. American type fast food and all the nasties they contain and are cooked with.
I believe in eating beneficial healthy foods with regular excersise and intermittent fasting is the way forward but not many medical experts will tell you the truth of losing weight by starving bad gut health, detoxifying our organs, ketosis, lipolysis autophagy, and best of all insulin control collagen and new stem cell growth after 36 hours of a water only (electrolytes and fresh lemon juice allowed) because they want us to stay a pharmasutical drugs guinea pig till you and I pop our clogs!
You are indeed what you eat as they say.
Famine or feast? Only you can decide what's best for you...
