  1. Eggs, whey, protein, fatty fish, beef (and liver), fermented vegitables, fermented dairy, lentils and quinoa are peak food.

  2. It's really hard to gauge the lift Improvement since since you weren't lifting before and there is always that immediate improvement with form and muscle memory improving. Do you think you'll stay lifting? Obviously its not worth maintaining a different work out for a possible future video, but it would provide a better comparison baseline.

  3. Real big fan of your research reviews, idk if you care for "requests", but I would be real interested in a review of sleep deprivation's effect on Ketosis (or vice versa) and Protein Starvation. In university I used to not eat or sleep for 2-4 days at a time for big projects/studying. I found I actually had more focus and energy after the first day than when sleeping. I assumed at the time it was related to higher adrenaline from stress, but now think it was probably Ketosis related. I also know that "Rabbit starvtion" is an issue with high to pure protein diet, where you can't gain energy at all because protein needs fat or carbs to be processed. But I can't find much cross research with how this effects ketosis or pushes Gluconeogenesis, weight loss, or other fasting related effects. Thanks if you ever cover any of this, or if you don't. Great info, love most of the videos (although the meat effect on the environment seemed heavily bias in info).

  5. This video was interesting and I agree with many of the take aways (by the way, as a guy, I want a girl with an hour glass figure and millions of dollars regardless of if I do). But your content seems to be more and more actively courting a further right crowd, and makes me trust you less and less because it creates the appearance marketability is more important than honesty. All im saying is if you want me to trust you, everything you say can't be what I want to hear, because if it is im perfect and have no reason to care about what you say

  6. This was a very interesting video, I would like to hear more about yeast based cellular agricultural (for example producing egg white proteins with yeast), and I want to point out that the environmental goals are more than just GHG emissions, land use is by and large the biggest.

  7. I know you said you had some mitigating factors screwing up your base line going in. Do you think you will repeat this ever, and if so, would you consider fasting or moving into Keytosis immediately after? I am curious how a body would respond with the raised hormon levels.

  8.  @viive4107  All fruits are designed to be eaten. Grasses to, although not by humans. Milk is up there.

  9. Ya this was an interesting video, but where he normally sites real studies in his videos this is basically unusable (changed work out routine, was sick at baseline, no ongoing blood tests, one participant, etc).

  11. Don't worry, manure and fertilizer run off, Deforestation for Cattle range land and cattle feed, and the energy intensity required to process and refrigerate animal product are still destroying the world, you just watched an interview with someone who professionally supports the meat industry. Notice his argument around the % of emissions from cattle wasn't that its low compared to globally, it was that other things are worse.

  12. Starting both a diet of 30 raw eggs a day and taking up squating is a risky combo

  13.  @aakash.sharma  Juice is something squeezed from a fruit/vegitable. I think the reality is they should be called "coffees" since they are water strained through nuts and beans.

  14.  @xxxBradTxxx  I'm about it, soy is solid (particularly fermentated) as long as you don't go crazy. I'll have to try, I've only had Tempah and tofu.

  17.  @cx6847  All cultures being hunters is only true if that includes fishing and gathering Shellfish. Many (maybe most) cultures were historically reliant on sea food. That os of course animal protein but not red meat or the general focus of this video.

  18.  @blondiepianist  This is to true, one thing that is left out of the "eat vegitarian" "eat raw beef" "eat whatever extreme diet" conversation is your body and the microbiome evolve and adapt to what you're eating. If you eat a diet heavy in fiber, your microbiome will convert that down into amino acids and short chain fatty acids, but you'll have trouble creating the bial to break down red meat, and vice versa.

  19.  @lennonzamora5387  The idea hunter gathers got most of their calories from meat is laughably false. Certainly an important source of protein but not the majority of calories or food.

  20. What if this video was made by an AI trying to replicate WIL doing a video about the danger of AI, as so we're all the comments, and it was only seen by you

  21. eggceptional eggplanation of the eggsperiment. The yolk is that I won't be starting such a crazy diet myself, but I guess the egg is on my face there.

  22.  @dontfit6380  Lactose tolerance is a gene that evolved only 5 thousand years ago in the Ukrainian steppe area, and then spread to Europe, Iran, and North Indian ong with domesticated horses. Asian populations and South indians are generally lactose intolerant, same with Arabs (although goat milk is much more easily digestible, and the common milk in the region). Africans in general are also lactose intolerant, although in east Africa a different version of the lactase gene evolved and spread with bantu migrations, although it isn't quite as effective. Cheese and butter are almost entirely lactise free, contrary to popular belief. Lactose is the sugar, butter is pure fat and cheese has bacteria break the sugar down into Protiens and fat. People historically ate these and not milk itself. Another advantage is they last much longer. Which is why we find "bog cheese" and "bog butter" where people would store it for later use.

  23.  @tomasbeltran04050  He said it was part of the carbon already in the atmosphere, that doesn't mean it has the same effect. This is one of the issues I had with the video, he says methane only last 12~ years, but then uses the 100 year impact cycle when comparing it as a GHG giving an apples to oranges view of the impact. Methane is short lived, and some argue its a far more dangerous GHG because its a far stronger GHG, the reason we rank it as less relevant is we use a 100 year life period for analysis, when on a 20 year period it is 86 times as powerful. The source of a GHG doesn't have any more effect on the atmosphere than whether the origin wheat you ate has on your body. It's the warming effect that matters and methane is inarguably more potentent than CO2.

  25.  @sawa1067  Meat is quite low in vitamin C. But, Glucose is competitive for vitamin C for uptake, so if the people you know are eating no carbs they will be able to use the small amount very efficiently to compensate.

  26.  @elwood62  Imagine thinking they can't. where do you think food comes from? Adding middle men doesn't add food. I mean, grains sure that's not local. But just about everything else can be.

  27.  @arsenal4444  Ya, I try to stick to small fish and farmed fish which tend to be fairly low, but it is an issue. I meant in terms of nutrients and bioavailability, but in modern reality fish being toxic is one of the consequences of our damage to the planet.

  29.  @erickim1739  Thorium reactors are nuclear reactors. Nuclear reactors use fission (the break up of atoms) to produce energy. A fissionable (naturally decaying and prone to break up when hit with a neutron) material is placed in a particular shape called a critical mass. Normally these atoms would slowly break up over time, but in a critical mass one atom breaking naturally will release a neutron, which will hit another atom and cause it to break, and lead to a chain reaction. Most reactors now use Uranium 238 and 235 (different isotopes based on number of neutrons). 235 is fissionable, 238 is not (it is fertile). weapons grade or enriched refers to the ratio, the higher the 238 the "better". In a reactor, some of the neutrons will hit the 238, which causes it to become Plutonium, which is fissionable and takes part in the reaction. Thats what fertile means, that it can be turned into a fissile fuel. Thorium is fertile, so non-radioactove. But in a Thorium reactor, some fissile material is included (plutonium) that causes thorium to become Uranium 233, a fissile material. Honestly Thorium is a very "Hype" technology, it offers very few advancement to Uranium, and some new difficulties. The big thing is most thorium reactors are also Molten salt reactors (changes the way the reactor is cooled and the critical mass is controlled) which offer a wide range of advantages.

  30.  @Michael-vc2cs  I would have the same issue if it were courting left wing, I don't mind political bias, but I don't like when it's framing the conversation, and I really don't like when it looks like the bias is being driven by a desire to sell. In this video the example being selling testosterone pills while talking about men becoming feminized

  31.  @jasonito23  gotta mention Nixtamalization when talking corn based diets.

  32.  @lennonzamora5387  I actually hate YouTube because you can't post links, but look up Dan Davis. He has an excellent video on the history of food in Europe, it doesn't go into the iceage (because we don't have the evidence to) but it does explore the pre-agricultural hunter gathers. I genuinely think you'll enjoy.

  33.  @user-cy9vd7rl4h  If you aren't of Indo-European decent (which would include place like north india and iran), you are most likely lactose intolerant. East Africans are the exception and can drink some lactose.

  34.  @dontfit6380  Why would animals not have been afraid? I mean depends what your defining early man as, but assuming homo sapiens homo erectus was running around with a spear for millions of years. Dan davis just dropped a great video on early diets.

  35. No I think this likely had to much protein relative to fat for Ketosis. His body is probably going to Protien gluco-gensis to build carbs to run on and not switching fuels.

  36. I personally don't take issue with the "killing", it's the living that concers me. Which is why I don't eat pork and avoid chicken or otherthings cage raised. Cheese is really the thing I eat I feel worst about. But Organic eggs and local beef I don't think have a moral dilemma, given the amount of nutrition per death and the life the animals are able to live. That said great job, 12 years is impressive, and veganism definitely can be healthy.

  37. You shoild add some apple cider vinegar to your diet. But you bloating/ gassyness when vegan sounds like you have a gluten intolerance or were incorrectly preparing legumes.

  38. Mushrooms are great, but they have very little protein (although it is a mainly complete Protein) and very little carbs or fat. It's largely irrelevant outside of being tasty, and having a lot of supplemental vitamins and minerals.

  39.  @davipenha  Well this video is heavily about the USA and developed countries eat far more meat per capita.

  41.  coolthingy the third  Grey parrots eat only fruit, certainly one of the smartest birds. Comparing bird diets. and our own isn't particularly meaningful. certainly not fish.

  42. I'm more supprised by the testosterone tbh.

  43. I think your over simplifying, the vegan diet is about more than nutrition, its also an ethical and environmental stance. And you can be healthy as a vegan, as he says. So the goal to blackpilling isn't that the diet is dumb, its that a small adjustment to their diet can meet their goals with significant health improvements.

  44. True, so between the eggs and taking up lifting I'm surprised in the testosterone result.

  45.  @quasa0  Any Idea which? I've watched a lot of them but only over the last month, defininely missed a few.
    1
  46.  @quasa0  Ya I saw that one. That seemed more about how fasting makes you uncomfortable, or screws up your hormone ques, and interferes with sleep. I'm more curious about the opposite, how brain chemistry changes under both ketosis and sleep deprivation, or how it might influence general body metabolism. So less "ketosis effects sleep like this" and more "not sleeping effects ketosis like that". Definitely after a work out, I used to right down any new words throughout the day and look up definitions after sets and that worked well. I've definitely felt more focused after some alcohol...

  47.  @ToniCroX  Yes but there os a "black market"

  48. I'm not pushing veganism, but any kind of processed fake meat is unhealthy, and having regularly switched between vegan and meat eating can confirm the hotdog or sausage is tbe 1 one thing that can't be replicated. I have never found a not gross one.

  49.  @TheSNIPEZzz  ya I agree there are broader implications. But I think those are at least talked about, pretty soon there will be huge amounts of porn of you and everyone you know. Society is gonna have to get real cool with some stuff real quickly

  50.  @markfinlay422  Interestimg fact about the innuit, they have a genetic mutation that nearly prohibits ketosis. It leads to high infant mortality rates, unfortunately, but allows more efficient glucogenisis. Being maybe the only purely carnivorous culture, this is quite interesting in regards to the health of staying in ketosis (vs intermittent fasting), imo.
