The headline is broadly defensible, but the qualifications matter. Effect sizes vary by population, the strongest claims rest on shorter trials, and credible voices push back on how it's typically framed.
when people eat even if they're eating fat and meat you're gonna get insulin rise it has to rise they're gonna get glucagon rise with it so the ratio won't change a whole lot but people on carnivore diets are not gonna have insulin that's chronically super low you're gonna get rising insulin
Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.

fasting insulin is low and the conversation of ldl is a whole different podcast i have a calcium scan a ct coronary or excuse me a calcium score which is zero despite my ldl which is called elevated if you're interested in the way that ldl changes with an animal-based diet listen to the six podcasts i've done on this with dave feldman and many others it's probably more of those coming in the future so hopefully that's helpful you like your ancestors not like your doctor reclaim your birth right to radical health meat and organs will get you there uh avoiding these things will lead to decrepitude um again let's just compare body composition in vegans and vegetarians who don't supplement with synthetic protein or take steroids and i think the argument is end ended right there so so many healthy people thriving on animal-based diets including now george st pierre is doing an animal based diet this week this month i just want to close with one study guys that i think is quite important actually i want to share a few studies because these obesity studies that came up when i talked to herman poncer are quite fascinating so the first one is this one which is obesity is associated with a hypothalamic injury in rodents in humans one of the takeaways from my conversation with herman poncer was that when you injure the hypothalamus people get fat how do you injure the hypothalamus well one of the ways you can do it in animal models is by soybean oil so this is a very interesting thing to consider and the hypothesis here would be that excess omega-6 at least content in soybean oils are damaging the hypothalamus affecting both hypothalamic gene expression uh of all sorts of things and the oxytocin secreting system in the brain and that that may be at the root of much obesity but you do not want to damage your hypothalamus and wouldn't it be scary if many of these seed oils that plant-based advocates would recommend like joel is recommending are damaging the hypothalamus and leading to issues with satiety in many people so that was one set of studies i wanted to share before i wrapped up and the last one is this one so if you guys heard the conversation i have with robbie sansom this is important the title of this study is animal source foods sustainability problem or malnutrition and sustainability solution perspective matters so what the officers of this study appropriately point out is that two billion people suffer micronutrient deficiencies in the world and this is partly i would say mostly due to insufficient consumption of animal source foods yet animal source foods have been described by the world health organization as the best source of high quality nutrient rich food for children age 6 to 23 months livestock and animal source foods are vital to sustainability as they play a critical role in improving nutrition reducing poverty improving gender equity improving livelihoods increasing food security and improving health the nutritional needs of the world's poor particularly women and children must be considered in sustainability debates i love it if you heard the podcast with robbie sansom you also know that the way to have a sustainable ecosystem is by having ruminants on the land by letting cows graze the land so i hope that joel will have a conversation about the problems with monocrop agriculture and the sustainability of animal source foods in our lands and regenerative agriculture which is near and dear to my heart and near and dear to our hearts at hardened soil all of the desiccated organ supplements that we source are from regenerative farms grass fed grass finished again meat and organs are the center of the human diet that is my rebuttal to joel's vermin's blog post stay radical you guys love you all
