Eat Rich, Live Long: Use the Power of Low-Carb and Keto for Weight Loss and Great Health

Product Information

Nutritional sacred cows are constantly being challenged in the media. How much fat should we eat -- and which kinds of fats are best? Which fats can contribute to diabetes, heart disease, and early mortality? Does a high-protein diet increase muscle mass and lead to vigorous health – or can it promote aging, cancer, and early mortality? Which vitamins and minerals should we be taking, if any? How do we change our metabolism so that our bodies burn fat instead of all the sugars we consume? Does intermittent fasting really work? Eat Rich, Live Long lays out the truth based on the latest scientific research. I have been on LCHF since reading Gary Taubes book, Why We Get Fat: And What To Do About It in Jan 2012. I think this book provides excellent advice. I have that opinion because in one book it contains a summary and expansion on good, accurate, improved dietary advice and the history of why we have been given bad advice for so long based on flawed research, forceful personalities, and suppressed / ignored research that disagreed with the so-called "experts" that I have read about in many other books over the past couple of years. Books by; Gary Taubes, John Yudkin, Robert Lustig, Jason Fung, Nina Teicholz, Timothy Noakes, and several others. And this book mostly agrees with those books and condenses the information into one volume. And I didn't know much about things like what exactly are HDL & LDL cholesterol and what is insulin and how does it work.

Dr. Jeffry Gerber has no financial ties to pharmaceutical, diagnostics or medical device companies. He has no financial ties to the food industry.

Nutritional ketosis and high protein does provided satiety over the short term. There nothing to show it works more that 5-10 years. The number of fat cells has the last word. No way to increase the low leptin in the shrunken fat cells other than to regain weight. Also, it is very amusing to see Ivor, an engineer, teaching most doctors how proper science is made. If you ever heard Ivor talking, you'll know that the book was written by that lovely irish clever jester. Ah! At the end of each chapter there is a short story regarding real doctor Gerber's patients. Inspiring!

This is an excellent text. A great guide for people interested in LCHF(Low Carbohydrate High Fat) or Atkins type diet. LDLp or ApoB particles done on advanced lipid testing should also be done at some point to determine if there is discordance. I think they are reacting to the Ancel Keys disastrous seaqueway to high carbohydrate low fat diets as the only healthy diet. Frustrated with spiraling healthcare costs related to the treatment of conditions including overweight, obesity, diabetes, atherosclerosis, and heart disease, Dr. Gerber focuses on prevention and treatment programs using low-carb high fat (LCHF), Ancestral, Paleo, and Primal diets to treat and prevent these chronic conditions. He rigorously maintains a database of patients, looking at weight loss and improved cardio-metabolic markers, demonstrating the benefits of these types of diets. The authors fail to recognize the necessity of statins, niacin and Zetia to treat high CAC score or secondary cardiovascular disease or the very high ApoB of Familial Hypercholesterolemia

P262 EAT RICH LIVE LONG APOB/APO1: The Master Ratio. There are many problems with ratios. Suffice to say non-HDL cholesterol is much better. Get it under 80. For IR patients (insulin resistant) meal spacing will increase hunger unless you are on diet medications.

I am Board Certified in the American Board of Obesity Medicine. I think any diet can lose weight. The challenge is maintaining that weight loss by finding a diet that is ad libitum and can be maintained for life. From chapter 10 – There are two rules in Longevity Club. The first rule of Longevity Club is, respect your insulin. The second rule of Longevity Club is … respect your insulin. p354 "people with verified FH (familial hypercholesterolemia) should discuss PREVENTATIVE treatment options with a specialist in the field" The general rule that has been followed for decades has been to allow the whole society to benefit from the good things ionizing radiation provides society by minimizing average excess radiation exposure to the general public. Higher radiation exposure is permitted for radiation workers, at the risk they will have a higher probability of getting cancer, and extra steps were to be taken to lower exposure to everyone else. That last part is violated by having higher numbers of people exposed to radiation that they need not be exposed to.Low Leptin tells your brain you are starving. Several mechanisms including decreased thermogenesis and increased Ghrelin (increased hunger) are 2 ways Leptin causes slow weight regain even on a reduced calorie diet over the long term. This book has changed all that for me. It presents the science behind this in a way that meets the needs of even sceptics like me. Simply and in enough detail to give an understanding of how all this incredibly complicated biochemistry works without making your eyes glaze over
