Good video that explains the importance of understanding insulin.

What a load of bro science.

Woo. No insulin control here, no "ravenously hungry" following carbs (in fact starches are most effective for my hunger). More than 100 pounds lost without said "key".20

Bunch of quotations taken out of context put together in a jumble. Reminds me of the random reference hoarding in academia.
Also I always wonder why people focus on 70 year life-expectancy hunter-gatherer diets so much, where nearly most first world countries are at 80+ now. While the diet is important, there are many other factors that go into that life-expectancy.
And seriously, guy does intermittent fasting for couple days, and claims to have energy boosts etc. He should write an article and send it to pubmed already

What toxins was he ingesting?
How come he doesn't mention that protein also spikes insulin?
How come he agrees that 3 meals a day has no scientific back up yet believes OMAD does?
Confusing woo all round.10 -
I feel like I'm being sold something...6

And this is why there is so much confusion and failure in the diet-sphere. Videos like that one, right there.20

Please show results of each of the plans you follow. At 39 I'll compare my physique to anyone and my blood work too. Main stream has pushed this western type diet to all of you becouse it is a cash cow for them. In reality obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease, cancer can all be mitigated through fasting. If you haven't researched or tried it you really shouldn't comment.57

You didn't answer my questions.
Physique has nothing to do with anything. I think my endurance running times would suffer if my physique was like your own.
Please show me the studies that IF is any better than cutting calories?
And to say you can mitigate cancer by it is just dangerous and stupid imo.29 -

Cash cow for who? MFP is a free app. You're attacking the wrong group.
I know, I forgot the rule about not feeding the trolls.17 -

Let's see. No more diabetes, no more blood pressure, normalized blood lipid profile, a 4 fold decrease in triglycerides, a near 2 fold increase in HDL, fitness improvement from barely being able to walk for 5 minutes to running for over an hour, No longer morbidly obese with a BMI poking 50, and all of that while consuming 150-350 grams of carbs a day.33 -

Colombia university has studies to back this up. If your running marathons fasting may not be for you but you should look into ketosis dieting. Fat give you more sustained energy for your run.RuNaRoUnDaFiEld wrote: »Please show results of each of the plans you follow. At 39 I'll compare my physique to anyone and my blood work too.

Link your studies.
And you still didn't answer my questions.11 -

I thought it was an interesting video, but I am pretty uneducated when it comes to nutrition and am only just getting started. My first thought regarding eating once per day is, how do you get enough nutrients such as vitamins, minerals etc? One thing that MFP has shown me in the short time I've been using it is that it takes quite a lot of work to get the RDI of vitamins and minerals and I can't see how you'd achieve this in just one meal. I would appreciate anyone elses thought's on this.1

It is possible and there is nothing wrong with eating OMAD, but you don't have to. Meal timing is irrelevant to 99% of the population.
A lot of people like OMAD as it helps them eat fewer calories and some people find it helps them be less hungry also.
It does not do any thing else that this video claims to my knowledge and I'm still waiting on the OP to provide any studies to read.10 -
Someone is trying to set a new record for their woo count..... 27

I posted to the video for the brake down it does about insulin not the one meal a day. But theres benefits to that too.18

Great job, keep up the good work. I eat carbs too for muscle building during my lean bulking phase. I'm pretty sure you've really cleaned up your carb sources and are really disciplined with your nutrition. Great job..12 -

Again it's information on insulin response was around the one macro they wish to demonise. It didn't even mention the other macros and their insulin response.
They are cherry picking.8 -

That is not a study, it is the authors interpretation.9 -

Thanks! Some of the video's content went over my head. I'll have to rewatch and try and get a better understanding.
One thing I've found with MFD is that if you're calorie intake is below a certain level, it won't give you a daily completion result, instead it says your calorie intake is dangerously low and that MFD considers that kind of dieting dangerous or words to the effect. I'm guessing it wouldn't support a OMAD strategy.1 -

Don't be so sure. The main reduction in my calories came from fat, the rest of my food hasn't changed (including my carbs).6 -

It would as long as you have enough calories in your one meal. Cause that is what counts.3
