Joe Rogan says you don’t need Ozempic to kill your appetite and lose weight. Just go high-protein or full carnivore. Eggs and meat for breakfast, and your body adjusts, no more mid-day crashes, clearer head, more energy, and you feel satisfied way easier. He’s seen it work for a lot of people, including comics at his gym who did a full month. High-protein diets increase satiety hormones (GLP-1, PYY) and reduce ghrelin (hunger hormone), leading to natural appetite suppression and better weight management, similar mechanisms to Ozempic but without the drug.

Protein is essential. But more protein is NOT always better for fat loss. If your meals are very lean, your body can convert excess protein into glucose through gluconeogenesis instead of burning stored fat. That can keep insulin higher than expected and slow metabolic progress, especially for people healing insulin resistance or trying to stay in deep ketosis. If you’re still hungry after eating, the answer is usually not more protein. It’s more fat. Fat increases satiety, stabilizes energy, and signals your body that it’s safe to access stored fuel instead of defending it. This is what eating fat-forward actually means.

The low-fat carnivore trend falsely claims to mimic an ancestral diet. This is wrong. ​Ancestors ate high-fat megafauna (mammoths); hunters today still target fat-rich animals (whales, seals, polar bears). Even Arctic fish are fat-rich. Larger animals, especially Arctic species hunted in the Ice Ages, naturally carry a higher percentage of body fat. Significant inter-abdominal fat is also found in the omentum, mesentery, and around the kidneys. Healthy animals simply have more fat than starving ones. ​Due to decades of processed food propaganda, people now discard nutritious subcutaneous and abdominal fat, consuming only lean muscle. Discarding this fat is not an ancestral practice. ​Avoiding animal fat sacrifices vital nutrients—DHA, EPA, Vitamins D3, K2, A, E, choline, cholesterol, and saturated fat—essential for neurological function and child brain development. ​Weight stalls often stem from a "dirty carnivore" diet (dairy, artificial sweeteners). When issues arise, people wrongly blame high fat, forgetting high-fat carnivore initially drove their health and weight loss. Switching to low-fat risks malnutrition and protein poisoning, which can result in weight loss, but at the expense of health. As health suffers, people blame long-term ketosis on the poor health effects, even though this is against all the best long-term peer-reviewed evidence (See my YouTube video "Is ketosis harmful?"l for more). Remember that your hormones like testosterone and estrogen are made out of cholesterol, and avoiding fat will make all hormones suffer. Eating carbs raises insulin and insulin resistance, which suppresses testosterone in men and estrogen in women. Fat is an essential nutrient, and is good for you. Don't avoid fat just because it's trendy and you don't want to give up dairy or sweets. That is good for you, so eat the damn fat. #carnivore #carnivorediet

Most people trying keto or carnivore still eat too little fat. Fat-forward eating is what actually teaches your body to become fat adapted. When you give your body enough dietary fat, your liver starts shifting fuel sources. Instead of depending on constant glucose, it learns to run on fat and produce ketones for steady energy. That’s when hunger changes. You stop needing snacks every few hours. Energy lasts longer. Cravings calm down because your brain finally trusts that fuel is available. Carbs give quick energy. Fat gives long energy. And your body is designed for that. Your brain is about 60% fat. Your hormones depend on fat. Your cell membranes depend on fat. Fat-soluble vitamins depend on fat. Even your ability to stay full between meals depends on fat. Fat isn’t the problem people think it is. 👑 For a lot of us, it’s the missing piece.

Everyone thinks losing weight is just about eating less. But most people: - Starve themselves - Kill their metabolism... And don´t even lose weight anyway. So here are 10 metabolism cheat codes to melt stubborn fat (without eating less): 🧵 1. Do NOT go Vegan. The vegan diet completely lacks 12 different nutrients that only exist in animal-based foods. These nutrients are vital for your metabolism and hormones. Steak and eggs are two of the best foods in the world for metabolism, weight loss and health. 2. Resistance train Muscle is the #1 fat-burning organ. It burns calories 24/7, even while you sleep. - Go close to failure - Train 3 hours a week - Focus on compound exercises 3. Eat more protein. You burn off 20-30% of the calories you get from protein just by digesting it. It also lowers hunger and helps maintain and build muscle to burn even more calories too. Eat 1g per lb of bodyweight everyday. 4. Don´t cut out carbs too much. Low-carb = lower thyroid and testosterone. You´ll also feel more sluggish which reduces your calorie-burn from NEAT. Eat as much fruit as you want and potatoes instead of bread and pasta. 5. Improve your sleep. Poor sleep crushes your metabolism. Think about how more physically tired you feel after a night of bad sleep. Don´t eat late in the evening, keep your bedroom cooler and supplement magnesium glycinate. 6. Cold exposure. It´s not a fad - it´s scientifically proven. It boosts your metabolism and activates brown fat oxidation. All you need to get the benefits is 2-minute cold showers 7. Manage stress. High cortisol slows your metabolism and makes your body want to hold onto fat. The best way to reduce stress? Improve your physical health. Healthy diet. Exercise. Better sleep. 8. Fuel your thyroid. It´s the organ that literally runs your metabolism but nobody thinks about it. Even worse? Very low-calorie diets actually slow it down making it even harder to lose fat. Make sure you: - Get enough iodine & selenium - Improve your sleep & manage stress. 9. Eat as much fruit as you want. Certain influencers will claim that fruit is bad due to the sugar... As if people are overweight due to eating a lot of fruit... But nobody got fat from fruit. It was from a ton of calories from processed junk and a lack of exercise. Fruit is still low in calories as it´s mostly water and the sugar and vitamins help keep you healthy and your metabolism firing. The best fruits for metabolism and weight loss are berries and watermelon. The Bottom Line: The best way to lose weight is NOT eating way less. It´s boosting your metabolism so you can eat enough and still lose weight. Imagine how easy it would be to lose weight if you could eat a lot and not be too hungry? If you liked this post: 1.

Ranking Diets for Weight Loss (1-10) BAD (2-3/10) 1. Vegan (2/10) You'll lose weight quickly, because you're cutting out a vast majority of foods, which gets you in a pretty large deficit out of the gate. But it's very difficult to get enough protein with this eating style, and it puts you in a situation where you're very likely to lose muscle mass. 2. Keto (3/10) It will cause rapid weight loss, because if you cut out carbohydrates you'll drop water weight quickly. But for most people, a true ketogenic approach is very hard to sustain. 3. Vegetarian (3/10) I do like it better than vegan, because you have more protein options available. Again, it puts you in a situation where you're very likely to lose muscle mass, which increases the odds you gain the weight back. DECENT (4-5/10) 4. Weight Watchers (4/10) I slightly prefer it to keto, because it does indirectly teach you portion control, and it typically rewards lean protein selection. The big problem I have with Weight Watchers is that psychologically, it trains you that your body runs on points. Which just isn't true. It runs on calories, and that can confuse people once they get out of the system. 5. Carnivore (5/10) I like this better than keto because of the emphasis on protein. However, a lot of people struggle to get into a calorie deficit with this if they haven't been taught how to choose lean sources of protein. GREAT (7-9/10) 6. Intermittent fasting (7/10) This has a ton of health benefits. It can work well for weight loss, because if you restrict your eating window you tend to eat fewer total calories. Eat too many calories inside that window and you won't lose weight. 7. Minimally processed food (8-9/10) Of course minimizing your processed food intake is great for your overall health, and you should do it whenever you can. However, it is not a sure-fire weight loss approach. BEST (10/10) 8. High volume eating (10/10) This means choosing foods that are high in water volume and also fiber, which typically points to fruits and vegetables. It's going to fill you up and keep you satiated for longer. 9. High protein (10/10) Assuming you're eating high protein while staying in a calorie deficit. If you forget the calorie deficit part, this can basically become carnivore. Protein is the most satiating macronutrient, it preserves muscle mass, and it has the highest thermic effect of food, meaning your body burns more calories breaking it down than any other macronutrient. My research supported opinion is that anybody who is getting in a calorie deficit and losing weight needs to be eating a minimum of 0.8-1.0g per lb of their goal body weight, daily. 10. A calorie deficit (10/10) This works for weight loss every single time. If it didn't work for you, it just means you weren't in one. I've worked with 1,200+ clients who've lost a combined 10,000+ lbs. Comment the word PROTEIN and I'll send you my free High Protein Low Calorie Cheat Sheet.

Nick Fuentes just recommended Ozempic to his 1M+ mostly Gen-Z fans, so now I need to rant. This is absolutely HORRIBLE advice. Ozempic and other GLP-1 drugs literally paralyze your stomach so you can't digest food properly, and in countless cases have led to gastroparesis, intestinal blockage, BLINDNESS, and a laundry list of other horrific side effects. NOBODY should be taking this poison. If you're struggling with weight loss, here's some actually useful advice that will make you healthier without destroying your body: EAT MORE FATTY RED MEAT. And any high-fat animal products, really. (Excluding dairy, which is a growth agent in nature and thus triggers addictive pathways in your brain). Beef, butter, bacon, and eggs. Those 4 are your best friend. Carbohydrates, even the "healthy ones" like salad, fruit, whole grains, etc. are NOT satiating your body; they're glorified sugar/fiber bulk that strain your digestion and make you fart/shit more, while giving you zero actual nutritional value as you are not a cow or rabbit with the specialized digestive system required to digest break these materials down. (More details on why plants in any quantity are unhealthy for humans in the thread to follow). The reason why an overweight person's body is stuck in the constant craving mode is, very simply, because they are protein/fat-deficient. (Carbohydrates are non-essential, Protein/Fat are essential). The carbohydrate industry is far bigger than the other two, however, so they've thrown a ton of money around to convince the world that DIETARY FAT is bad for you, and causes BODYFAT. This is completely backwards from reality. Dietary fat is what turns off your hunger signals, i.e. gets your body to the NOURISHMENT point where it no longer craves food, which is where weight loss happens. I can practically promise you right now: if you're on the heavy side and just eliminate all carbs (even fruit/salad) and start eating bacon/eggs for breakfast, and a couple pounds of steak or ground beef for dinner (again, with NO CARBS on the side of either of these meals), you will see the the easiest, most delicious weight loss progress of your life. And if you're really dedicated to making progress as fast as possible? Work your way toward eating a TON of steak for dinner, and making that your singular meal for the day. (One meal in a day sounds crazy to the carb-addicted mind, but trust me, that protein/fat combo has carrying power. I've done this one-meal-of-steak-per-day routine for years, it's easy once you're acclimated to it.) I've done tons of podcast episodes and blog posts on the weight loss topic in the past, featuring personal friends of mine who've lost HUNDREDS of pounds on the Carnivore (Zero Carb) Diet, when NOTHING else worked for them, from vegan, to paleo, to mediterranean, keto, and everything in between. I'll turn this post into a thread, and link some of the resources I've gotten the most positive feedback on below for you to explore. Take a look, and share with any friends you know who are struggling with weight! 🧵👇

What is the ‘best’ diet to prevent disease and live a long, healthy life? (hint: it’s not keto, or vegan, or carnivore, or Mediterranean) Video shout-out to Kevin Hall, PhD Kevin Hall The ‘best’ diet is the one that you can stick to over the long term One that makes you feel energized, and decreases your cancer risk and heart disease risk factors Here are the fundamentals of a great diet: - Reduce (and ideally no) refined carbs and sugar - Emphasis on whole foods, particularly non-starchy vegetables and fruits - Replace fizzy drinks and juices (including fruit juice), with water - High, lean protein intake (1.6 grams per kg of body weight) - Replace saturated fats with unsaturated fats - Low salt intake (watch out for sauces and pre-packaged foods) - Early dinner, then immediately brush teeth

A calorie is a calorie. Eat too many and you get fat, no matter what the food is. You have heard it a thousand times. One British personal trainer decided to test it on his own body. His name is Sam Feltham. He is a trainer, not a doctor, and this was a self-experiment, not a lab study. Keep that in mind. But watch what happened. For 21 days he ate about 5,800 calories a day. More than double what his body needed. But he ate real, low-carb food. Meat, fish, eggs, nuts, avocado, olive oil. By the old calorie math, he should have packed on around 16 pounds of fat. He gained about three. And his waist actually got smaller. Then he ran the whole thing again. Same 21 days, same enormous 5,800 calories. This time on processed junk. Sugar, flour, refined carbs, the standard modern diet. Same calories. Completely different body. He gained about 16 pounds, and his waist ballooned three and a half inches. Same number of calories. Five times the fat gain. One man is not proof. But it points straight at what the calorie-counters do not want to look at. A calorie of steak and a calorie of soda do not do the same thing inside you. It was never just calories. It is the sugar and the grains. #NSNG #NoSugarNoGrains #calories #lowcarb #realfood #sugar #metabolism

When all we know is calories in versus calories out and move your ass harder at the gym, our body holds onto fat for dear life! Especially once we’re over 35 Especially once we’ve had children Especially when we’re in perimenopause or menopause Especially when we have no idea how to regulate our nervous system You see when your body does not feel safe , meaning it constantly is in fight or flight mode from all of the so-called dinosaurs chasing you every day, it won’t release the weight. Our bodies are actually very simple It’s just that they feel like they’re most important job is to keep you alive not thin 🤷‍♀️ So when you are constantly dealing with chronic stress every day, it shuts down your digestive track as well as disrupts your hormones and inflames your body, all to keep you alive. I know it seems counterproductive, but after all you are alive still, right! if you want to truly lose weight and keep it off and actually feel healthy enough to get good sleep and enjoy your life. It’s not going to be about calories in versus calories out. It’s not going to be about killing yourself in the gym. It’s going to be about learning to regulate your nervous system and get out of chronic stress mode ! This is possible I’ve done it And yes, I’m 50 years old and have three kids and homeschooled and own my own business and went through a divorce and have much trauma and abuse and neglect and everything else that you want to put on the plate . So there’s no excuses for you , if I can do it, so can you. And I’m here to help you do just that! If you want to get healthy once and for all , not just with a sexy physique, but with a healthy mind, body and soul… DM me Phoenix 🔥

Especially once we’re over 35 Especially once we’ve had children Especially when we’re in perimenopause or menopause Especially when we have no idea how to regulate our nervous system You see when your body does not feel safe , meaning it constantly is in fight or flight mode from all of the so-called dinosaurs chasing you every day, it won’t release the weight. Our bodies are actually very simple It’s just that they feel like they’re most important job is to keep you alive not thin 🤷‍♀️ So when you are constantly dealing with chronic stress every day, it shuts down your digestive track as well as disrupts your hormones and inflames your body, all to keep you alive. I know it seems counterproductive, but after all you are alive still, right! if you want to truly lose weight and keep it off and actually feel healthy enough to get good sleep and enjoy your life. It’s not going to be about calories in versus calories out. It’s not going to be about killing yourself in the gym. It’s going to be about learning to regulate your nervous system and get out of chronic stress mode ! This is possible I’ve done it And yes, I’m 50 years old and have three kids and homeschooled and own my own business and went through a divorce and have much trauma and abuse and neglect and everything else that you want to put on the plate . So there’s no excuses for you , if I can do it, so can you. And I’m here to help you do just that! If you want to get healthy once and for all , not just with a sexy physique, but with a healthy mind, body and soul… DM me Phoenix 🔥

Everyone keeps telling her to eat less fat so her body will burn stored fat. But it is not working. And there is a reason for that. When you come from a background of insulin resistance your body has literally lost the ability to tap into stored fat. Elevated insulin for extended periods shoves glucose into your fat cells and locks it behind closed doors. Your liver is still running around looking for glucose because that is all it has ever known. You cannot fix that by eating less fat. You fix it by flooding your body with fat. I am talking 150 to 200 grams a day. You have to force your liver to stop looking for glucose and finally accept fat as its fuel source. That is not maintenance eating. That is metabolic retraining. And before you close this post let me remind you what fat actually does for your body. Your brain is nearly 60% fat. Every single one of your hormones is made from fat. Your cell membranes are made from fat. Fat carries your fat soluble vitamins, A, D, E and K, without fat you cannot absorb them at all. Fat keeps you satiated, stabilizes your mood, gives you steady energy, and keeps your hormones balanced. Fat is not the enemy. Fat is literally the building material your body runs on. About 70% of your calories should be coming from fat. That is not a typo. Once your liver concedes and fat becomes the rule of the land that is fat adaptation. And THAT is when you can start pulling back on dietary fat slightly and let your body tap into its own stores. That is when the weight really starts moving. I know it sounds completely backwards. I lived on low fat my entire life and ballooned to 330 pounds eating way too many carbohydrates. It took me months to unlearn everything I had been taught. The answer has always been fat. It will always be fat.👑

“My job was to hit joints with hammers and saws as a doctor,” former orthopedic surgeon Dr. Shawn Baker told me. But now he’s telling his patients to consider going on a low-carb, high fat diet or even a carnivore diet—instead of immediately opting for knee replacement surgery. Baker says high-carb, high-sugar diets trigger chronic inflammation that destroys joint lubricants and accelerates arthritis. The culprit? Elevated insulin. When it spikes, the cells that keep joints moving smoothly start releasing inflammatory cytokines that damage our joints. And what drives high insulin levels in the blood? It’s mostly carbohydrates and in particular refined carbohydrates like sugars, starches and grains. Inflammation caused by too much insulin, he said, is associated not only with arthritis but with all sorts of other complications as well like diabetes, heart disease, cancer—and even depression and dementia. And insulin is not the only thing that drives inflammation, Baker says. Extra belly fat also releases inflammatory signals into the bloodstream: “One of the most impactful things you can do is lose the excess central fat. If you have extra belly fat, man or woman, that [fat] is driving inflammation, it's driving all kinds of metabolic problems. So that’s of critical importance to lose that extra body fat.”

Dr. Benjamin Bikman drops a brutal wake-up call on fasting and fat loss: “If you can’t fast for 12 hours as an adult, that’s a terrible sign — it usually means insulin resistance and chronically elevated insulin.” Why it matters: High insulin locks your body in sugar-burning mode. You run out of glucose fast during fasting → you crash, feel awful, and can’t access stored fat. The fix? Lower insulin by weaning off starch and sugar → train your body to burn fat for fuel (which is literally what fat is stored for). “That can only happen when insulin is down.” No 12-hour fast? That’s a red flag. Start small, cut the carbs, and rebuild metabolic flexibility. How long can you currently fast comfortably — and are you ready to push past that 12-hour mark?

Why burning more calories doesn’t always mean fat loss: Burn 500 calories a day, lose a pound a week? Sounds simple, right? Unfortunately, that’s not how human metabolism works. Your body is incredibly adaptive, and over time, it adjusts how many calories you burn. In today’s Perform with Dr. Andy Galpin episode, Dr. Herman Pontzer (Herman Pontzer) of Duke Global Health / Duke Evolutionary Anthropology explains that while you might see an initial drop in weight, your body compensates by slowing down other energy expenditures, so you’re likely burning far fewer extra calories than you think—sometimes just half, sometimes even the same as before. And to be clear, this isn’t about inaccurate calorie burn estimates. We’re talking about real, internal physiological changes your body makes in response to increased energy use. On top of that, not eating the calories you burn is tough. The body naturally drives you to replace that energy, making sustainability the real challenge. So, if you’re not losing weight despite increasing exercise, don’t assume something is ‘broken’—your body is simply adapting, and you may need to adjust your approach. Smart training, sustainable nutrition, and understanding energy balance are key.

For fifty years the world's obesity advice has come down to one phrase. Eat less. Move more. A Harvard pediatric endocrinologist named David Ludwig spent twenty years showing it was the wrong answer. Ludwig directs the New Balance Foundation Obesity Prevention Center at Boston Children's Hospital. He is a professor at both Harvard Medical School and the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health. He has spent his career treating the most obese children in New England. The standard playbook was not working. The kids cut calories. They tried harder. They came back heavier. So Ludwig started asking a different question. What if the calorie was not the lever. He built what he calls the carbohydrate-insulin model. Refined carbs spike your insulin. Insulin tells your body to store fat. After the spike your blood sugar crashes. Your body interprets the crash as starvation. You get hungry again. You eat. You store more fat. You crash again. It is a feedback loop. And the loop runs on the carbohydrate, not the calorie. In November 2018 his team published the result in the British Medical Journal. 164 adults. 12 percent body-weight loss on a run-in diet. Then randomly assigned to high-carb, moderate-carb, or low-carb at calorie levels designed to maintain their new weight. For twenty weeks straight. The low-carb group burned over 200 extra calories per day at the same body weight as the high-carb group. The effect was larger in participants with the highest insulin secretion. Read that again. Same body weight. Same maintenance calories. The low-carb body was running 200 calories per day hotter. That number ends every "a calorie is a calorie" debate the moment you read it. Ludwig is not a fringe figure. He is the most credentialed voice in nutrition science quietly dismantling the orthodoxy from the inside. His 2016 book Always Hungry has been on the New York Times bestseller list. His 2021 paper in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition formalized the model into a unified theory of obesity. The standard advice is not just wrong. It is the wrong question. Eat less and move more is what you say when you do not understand the disease. #NSNG #DavidLudwig #CarbInsulinModel #AlwaysHungry #LowCarb #Insulin #Obesity #HarvardMedicine

What's the number one mistake that people make about satiety? Also, how can chicken breast and broccoli be high satiety per calorie (SPC), if people do not really feel full eating them? This may be the biggest misunderstanding that stops people from using satiety to lose weight and improve their metabolic health. As Ted ⚡️ Naiman shares in this clip, the fundamental misunderstanding is mixing up satiety with satiety per calorie. The best way to get a lot of satiety? Go to a buffet and eat a lot of everything you see. You'll get a lot of satiety, but at a cost of thousands and thousands of calories. Now, if you instead eat extremely high satiety per calorie foods, lets say egg whites and broccoli, you will likely not eat a lot of food. You'll probably end up eating quite few calories. So few, in fact, that you won't feel all that much satiety. In the latter case you ate super-high satiety per calorie foods, but very few calories. Therefore, the satiety you feel still isn't that high. Think of it like this. The higher the satiety per calorie number of the foods you eat, the fewer calories you're likely to end up eating. Period. However, the goal should not be to eat the very lowest number of calories you can. You can eat too little, and that won't make you feel your best. For example, eat only skinless chicken breast (76) and broccoli (89), and your average satiety per calorie may be 80. You'll eat very few calories and sure, you'll lose weight. But it will probably be fairly miserable. It's just too high, too effective. The goal should be to find a good balance for you. If you're looking for weight loss, that might be in the 50-70 range of average satiety per calorie. That's it for today. Don't mistake satiety and satiety per calorie. They are different ways of looking at things. Find the right balance for you. Not too high. Not too low. Just right. Or like we say in Sweden: Lagom. What's your favorite SPC range?

Gary Brecka on why fasted high-intensity workouts (black coffee + Orange Theory hammer) often fail women: After 20 min, glycogen's gone—body burns lean muscle for quick energy (3 min process) instead of fat (5+ hours). You rebuild overnight... repeat cycle = no net fat loss. His fix? The viral 30-30-30 (from Tim Ferriss' 4-Hour Body): - 30g protein within 30 min of waking - Then 30 min steady-state cardio (heart rate <135 bpm) Claims: "I've never seen anything strip fat faster." Do it a month—watch the difference. This 1:20 clip breaks down the science of why intensity alone backfires and how a simple morning tweak shifts to fat-burning mode. Tried 30-30-30 (or similar protein-first + low-intensity routine)? What happened to energy/weight/body comp? Stuck to fasted HIIT—did it stall you like he describes? Skeptical—why or why not give it a shot?
