You are a very good interviewer. Most can't help themselves, and constantly interrupt their guest, but you are very patient, listen well, and interject at just the right time, adding thought-provoking comments and questions. Thank you. P.S. Love it when you have Georgi on.

[priapsus]

I'm subscribing to this channel. This young lady is an excellent interviewer, and I don't say that lightly. Georgi is well-informed, but when he does shows with, say, Danny Roddy, it can turn into a BROFEST. Sister Strong here, on the other hand, not only listens patiently to Georgi and lets him have his say, but she asks him to clarify points for the audience. She also is not afraid to push back when she has objections.

[victormillward]

Phenomenal! Probably the best YouTube video I have ever watched. Georgi, is incredible. Thank you

[ericwarmath]

Jason Fung would have a stroke listening to this

[NoKingsNoGodsOnlyMan]

Exercise has to intense enough to create a stimulus, but infrequent enough to allow the adaptation and to prevent chronic stress. It's called High Intensity Training. Move slow, one set to failure. Short workouts once per week. Grow muscle and cardiovascular efficiency with 100% safety.

[evanmcintosh]

Your two perspectives to explaining metabolic energy makes it very easy to understand! Great collab

[TravisTellsTruths]

These are truly the most important pieces of information to the health of our people of our time. I've been following Ray Peat and Georgi Dinkov with Danny Roddy for years now and I have verified this work in my mind and experience. It is the only information related to health and nutrition that has a true wholistic picture of biology in vivo--in humans. Its simple, concise and to the point. But it took 5 years of following Ray's work and putting it into practice to realize dramatic and profound results in body andbin understanding. The picture is glorious and Godly. The ancient Yogis knew this same information. It's all there. It's the cosmic diet, as Danny said. God bless you all!!!

Left carnivore because of Paul Saladino and this man! Carbs baby. Fruit!! Eating like my high carb vegan days now! Except still have moderate amount of animal protein in there, about 100-140g lean animal protein a day. Fat stays pretty low, still doing full fat goat milk kefir. Other than that, it is high sugar high fruit 😄stamina for exercise has gone way up, my mind just feels less stressed…it’s hard to describe. Funny that I took this route here but oh well, have to experiment and learn! Thank God for YouTube for all the spread of information!

Not ig or fb, deactivated both of those long ago lol

[DaveDman]

I am a firm believer that being too lean is absolutely not a healthy/optimal state. After about a decade of Ray Peat inspired high sugar high saturated fat low PUFA diet I have what I consider a healthy amount of "extra" body fat that would be considered overweight but on me it is so extremely evenly distributed over my entire body (arms, legs, and even hands and feet) to the point that people are shocked to know what my weight is because it suits me so well and I feel amazing. (5 foot 8 and 190 pounds)

[wesleylee]

the reason why we were able to tolerate sugar when we were young is because our stress levels were so much lower. as children, we were carefree as we had all the time in the world.

[vio-la]

Thank you for this very informative video! Great work! ❤️ In Part 3, could you please touch upon a statement that sugar blocks the absorbsion of vitamins and minerals? And also a bit about omega 3-6-9 in relation to body's inflammatory processes? And also about why they've been telling us fiber is good for us? Thank you. 🤗

I discovered your channel thanks to Carnivore Aurelius, and I'm so happy for that! Can't wait for next videos!

This autophagy thing is misunderstood because a lot of us are ill and then we are searching all sorts of ways to make ourselves feel better. As he says autophagy is turned on by fasting/starving because there is nothing else to eat so the body turns inside and starts looking what can I used as food. Broken, ill, non functional cells are a good choice, lets leave those healthy ones. That is an emergency survival response actually, but today we try to turn it on intentionally thinking its some kind of clean up or healing mechanism. Its not, its just that in times of starvation there is nothing else to eat but your own cells. Broken ones are the first to go...

[tappingwitht]

HOLY MOLY DO I APPRECIATE THIS! Love interviews with Georgi: every time my mind feels like it upgrades another level!

[Mayaillu]

My belly bloating does seem to go down when replacing starches with sucrose type foods, had a bit of anxiety, possibly from wheat cravings but seem not that bad atm. I'm not sure if I'm gonna run into trouble without access to thyroid and these other hormones like progesterone eating this way but this is very interesting. Gonna keep experimenting because I had amazing benefits (relief from chronic eczema and digestion issues) from fasting but I seemed to run into problems with energy when trying to consistently do short fasts long term. Thanks for an interesting interview!

[alex_trth]

Seemed like Georgi was defending obesity as perfectly fine. I think that’s a damaging perspective. I do agree that a little subcutaneous fat isn’t bad.

I also think that adding empty sugar calories onto other nutrient dense foods seems wrong intuitively. Surely every calorie you get should be nutrient dense, and therefore, animal fat is best.

Excess sugar seems intuitively wrong and isn’t found in our evolutionary history in large amounts, unlike fatty ruminant meat.

[victoriaolson]

I have read in several places that Gelatin is less bioavailable than collagen, by almost half. Also read that Powdered collagen is the most bioavailable form, vs from meat, but I want to learn why.

[Marcinmd]

Where should I go to learn the Ray Peat Diet? What to eat. What not to eat. Purpose etc. I’m having trouble finding information on the basics.

[BodyEpiphanies]

Keep up the amazing work. Georgi is a wealth of functional knowledge and you do a great job interviewing!

[laurenwaltz]

This is blowing my low carb, restrictive mind 😂😂😂

[kristianzarb]

Thanks for hosting these videos. I come from more of a low carb background, but I find these alternative viewpoints very interesting and thought-provoking. Looking forward to the next istallment :)
