episode The BIGGEST LIE You Were Never Supposed to Find Out cover

Description

Are food pyramids and dietary guidelines creating disease or eliminating it? Food lies can take DECADES to be debunked, and over 90% of chronic disease stems from food industry deception. Find out about the biggest food lie that could be destroying your health! Watch this episode next: Reset Your Body in 5 Days (With Zero Food) [https://open.spotify.com/episode/4oKZ046rIAE3zwxDb06ZaO] DATA: https://www.lowcarbusa.org/the-ketoge... 0:00 Introduction: Chronic disease and diet 0:41 Trans fats 1:00 Toxic ingredients in food 2:29 GMO corn dangers 3:20 Is red meat unhealthy? 3:43 The biggest food lie 4:06 The dangers of high-carb diets 4:37 Low-carb diets 4:39 Dietary guidelines exposed Today, I’m going to tell you about the biggest food lie that could be ruining your health. It can take decades for dangerous foods to be removed from the food supply. Crisco is an alternative cooking oil developed in 1911. It's made from repurposed cottonseed oil, traditionally used for lanterns. The trans fats found in Crisco cause the most damage to the heart, brain, tissues, and cells. When first developed, there were never any safety studies on trans fats. It took over 100 years to get them banned! Similarly, it took 90 years to get asbestos off the market. DDT, a toxic pesticide, took 30 years to be removed from the market. Glyphosate, fluoride, sodium nitrate, and saccharin are still used in the food and water supply, despite significant health concerns. Biosolids are repurposed sewage waste used as fertilizer to grow our food. Dent corn is an inedible, GMO field corn used to make over 4000 different products, such as animal feed, high-fructose corn syrup, maltodextrin, modified food starch, synthetic vitamin C, and seed oils. It is not heart-healthy and causes inflammation in the body. Are carbs essential? No! This is the biggest food lie and the most damaging. Most chronic diseases in the US are caused directly by high-carbohydrate diets. Lowering your carb intake can produce the most significant health benefits. Keto is attacked because it works! A keto diet can help reverse type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, obesity, mood disorders, cognitive dysfunction, and more. Most Americans have at least one chronic disease. Our dietary guidelines should include a low-carb diet as an option. Although the guidelines are often ignored by the general public, doctors can be penalized for recommending diets outside of them.

He is the author of the best-selling book The Healthy Keto Plan, and is the Director of Dr. Berg Nutritionals. He no longer practices, but focuses on health education through social media.

Dr. Berg is a licensed chiropractor in Virginia, California, and Louisiana, but he no longer practices chiropractic in any state and does not see patients, so he can focus on educating people as a full-time activity, yet he maintains an active license.

If you’ve hit a plateau or are new to keto, try these tips to avoid the most common keto mistakes and boost your success.

Today I want to cover three common mistakes people make on the keto diet. Common mistakes on keto and what to do: 1. Consuming too much fat Eating more fat doesn’t get you deeper into ketosis—lowering your carbs does. • Don’t consume extra fat unless you’re new to keto and need help fasting longer. • Eat the fat that normally comes with the protein you eat. 2. Consuming keto snacks Insulin is not just increased by carbs. It’s increased by eating. • Avoid snacks, even keto snacks. 3. Consuming hidden carbs Be sure to look for hidden carbs, especially maltodextrin, in your food and supplements. Fruit and berries contain fructose and glucose, which can also cause problems. • Check your food labels • Avoid fruit • Avoid agave nectar • Read the book “Don’t Eat for Winter.” 4. Not consuming enough quality protein Not consuming enough protein tells the brain that you need to keep eating. Also, if you’re deficient in amino acids before going into a prolonged fast, you’re not going to feel very good. • Consume a moderate amount of quality bioavailable protein • Take a blend of complete amino acids (if you don’t feel good while fasting) Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio: Dr. Berg, age 58, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.

Today we’re going to cover the difference between the two forms of vitamin B3: niacin and niacinamide. Both niacin and niacinamide chemically work similarly but have different benefits. Niacin: • Gives a flushing response • Has lipid benefits • Helps lower cholesterol • Helps lower LDL • Helps increase HDL • Helps decrease inflammation in the arteries • Supports a healthy liver • May help with schizophrenia • May help with drug-induced dyskinesia Niacinamide: • Won’t cause a flush • Helps with certain skin conditions (acne, dermatitis, rosacea, and psoriasis) • Helps lower histamines • Helps reduce immune inflammatory factors • Helps decrease flaking skin • Helps reduce sebum • May help reduce inflammation • May help with arthritis • Is used for anti-aging • Is used for hyperpigmentation • May help reduce anger and anxiety Many people are discouraged from taking niacin because of potential side effects. But the dangers are rare and are typically involved in those taking very high doses over long periods and time-release niacin.

Today we’re going to talk about the first sign of vitamin A deficiency: nyctalopia. Nyctalopia is night blindness. The active form of vitamin A is called retinol. Retinol is needed for peripheral vision and to see in dim light. Beta-carotene is the precursor to retinol—it needs to convert into retinol to become active. Thinking that you’re getting enough of the active form of vitamin A because you’re consuming beta-carotene can cause you to become vitamin A deficient. It’s important to consume the active form of vitamin A to support your eyes and your overall health. Foods rich in vitamin A (retinol): • Cod liver oil • Grass-fed liver • Raw cheese • Butter (raw) • Cream (raw) • Egg yolk Benefits of vitamin A: • It helps you see in the dark • It prevents dry eyes • It helps the eyes compensate • It helps prevent rough, scaly, or dry skin • It supports the immune system and helps prevent infections • It supports healthy mucus membranes and your internal skin • It helps support childhood development Top causes of vitamin A deficiency: • Pregnancy • Breastfeeding • Polymorphism • Pasteurization • Low-fat diets • Liver damage • Lack of bile • Gut damage Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio: Dr. Berg, age 57, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.
