He drinks buttery salty coffee. 26:47 90 to 95% of diabetes is type 2, self-inflicted by your diet. 28:17 Most of us find that our gut symptoms improve or disappear with the carnivore diet. 31:43 Your ancestry should point you to what you should eat. 32:44 Fatty meat is vital for human development and human optimization. 33:12 Keto and carnivore is life-changing. It wakes us up mentally and physically. 36:26 You hack your hormones with the food you eat. 46:28 There is a hierarchy of evidence in medicine and then the lowest form of evidence is expert opinion. You doctor’s medical practice can be based upon expert opinion. 47:33 Many drugs used today have unknown or little understood mechanisms of action. 50:01 Thyroid gland is poorly understood by most doctors. 51:19 Today’s thyroid conditions are an aspect of modern lifestyle and diet. 52:13 Dr. Berry recommends desiccated natural thyroid. 53:06 Iodine is under addressed. 54:22 Eating too many brassicas does not cause hypothyroidism. 55:51 Eating low carb does not exacerbate Hashimoto’s. 55:58 Taking iodine supplements does not make your hypothyroidism worse. 56:12 Excess iodine is excreted in your urine, if you have normal kidney function. 58:12 Your TSH fluctuates 3 to 4 points daily. 01:04:58 Obesity and diabetes can be prevented easily with diet. 01:09:10 Diabetics need to get rid of all sugars of all kind, even locally sourced and organic. 01:09:24 Type 2 diabetics should have no grain in their diets. 01:09:45 Get rid of all vegetable oils. Use real fats like butter, lard, avocado and olive oil when you cook. 01:10:40 Eat meat. All powders and potions for weight loss are crap. 01:21:13 Dr. Berry’s desert island nutrient is ribeye (meat, animals). 01:22:12 Dr. Berry’s elevator pitch: We need to stop eating food-like products and eating real food again. Eat the diet our ancestors ate 5,000 to 15,000 years ago. 01:26:31 The only diet that addresses hormones is the ketogenic way of eating.
