Visceral fat sits on the inside, around your organs, and you can’t pinch it. Six experts on why your body stores belly fat and what they say actually helps.
Dr Pradip Jamnadas explains: “It’s on the inside. You can’t pinch it.” Dr Robert Lustig adds that you can be thin on the outside and fat on the inside.
Six experts, six answers, in one Masterclass built from The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett: cardiologist Dr Pradip Jamnadas, paediatric endocrinologist Dr Robert Lustig (UCSF, emeritus), epidemiologist Prof Tim Spector (King’s College London), nephrologist Dr Jason Fung (author of The Obesity Code), nutrition researcher Alan Aragon and metabolic scientist Prof Ben Bikman (Brigham Young University).
What the experts say in this video:
– Dr Pradip Jamnadas: what visceral fat is, why you can’t pinch it, and how he says high background insulin pushes calories into new fat around your organs.
– Dr Robert Lustig: how you can be “thin on the outside, fat on the inside”, and why being thin doesn’t mean you’re healthy.
– Prof Tim Spector: why he calls the calorie-deficit idea “complete nonsense” for long-term weight loss, and why he says exercise alone does little for weight loss.
– Dr Jason Fung: “You eat, you store calories. You don’t eat, you burn calories”, and why he says to extend your fasting period and get rid of the snacks.
– Alan Aragon: why you can’t spot reduce belly fat, what really changes when you diet, and why he says saturated fats are more conducive to visceral fat gain.
– Prof Ben Bikman: how stress and poor sleep affect insulin, why muscle matters, and what he says happens to lean mass on weight-loss drugs and after liposuction.

PLEASE 🎉🎉❤ REPEAT THESE TYPE OF VIDEOS EVERY SO OFTEN !!! 💐💐💐🙏👌👌👌
Why didn't anyone mention fiber!?!? This is the 4th macro nutrient that's been stripped from our diets because we don't eat raw fruit and vegetables and grains and nuts and seeds and grasses like our ancestors did.

My question is does drinking coffee and English tea throughout the day raise glucose and insulin levels? When it gets cold in winter my consumption goes up….?
Il grasso sottocutaneo invece localizzato nella pancia ? Cazzo c’entra quello viscerale
So this channel is just a way to double monetize and regurgitate old videos?
This is probably the most valuable vido on YouTube to watch, it's just a pure gold summary.
What a waste of my time. 😢 Fat doctors giving advice😅. yapping about something they've never studied in med school. They can hardly understand the studies that they read. Bikman is the worst. I send him contradictory studies all the time, and he never replies.I can't figure out who he is working for. Allulose? Big beef???
Fenominal !!!!

Talking about Ketogenic diet this is incredibly effective for seniors based on my lengthy research & mostly animal based diet regarding high quality red organic meat cooked, fried or grilled in real animal butter and NOT palm oil, vegetable oil or random seed oils from America especially things high in Omega-6 and chemically processed… America's FDA allows way too many chemicals and ingredients that aren't promoting features of longevity, health or meals that truly develop that balance the body from within that most people's body crave and needs…
Staying healthy will require more than just reading of nutrition labels. Building good systems, controlling your physical environment to be convenient so that you don't lose willpower, patience and stamina helps save time, optimize energy/mood levels & contributes to less stress. Every optimization of your system and simplifying everything down to easy to understand instructions after you understand which habits are most healthy and organizing everything in a way that can be neatly arranged according to your convenience is more important because you need to arrange your life in a way that causes the least resistance so you can utilize your time more wisely.
Example, I created my own room to have drinks/snacks/daily necessities to be all around my desk & pc where I'm mostly spending my time. ADHD symptoms give me time blindness & renders me helpless in controlling and influencing my attention most of the time so I have exploit my physical environment to be an advertisement of the absolute healthy daily necessities that keep me alive while having another layer of systems of drinking and eating in moderation, to the best of my abilities.
Knowing which weakest aspects of your character, nature and personality that you have trouble with can all have solutions if you spend enough time on figuring out a viable plan that could potentially work for you. It took me years to get it right after many trial and errors and failure of wrong theories & assumptions after another but one day I kept getting closer to the truth and never gave up on trying to solve my problems even though I did have to take breaks from feeling how bad I felt from every loss, I still came back to the same issues until one day I kept trying different things & making subtle environmental changes until everything clicked into place & optimized things in my life. I think persistence, dedication & doing what you can and going back to issues that you should be figuring out for your own life are important trials to tackle for your own development and growth. Every little thing you can improve may have compounding effects for your future life as well. So, don't neglect the small issues that can make your life easier over the long run. Every system optimization, every smarter adjustment & every efficient way of adapting can have lasting compounding effects over the long course of your life.
Cheers~!
The guy at 9:40 sounds a bit foolish. He dismisses the idea of counting calories as “complete nonsense”, because he isn’t aware of any study that has been performed to demonstrate its effectiveness. He then speculates that it would fail, yet fails to cite any study for that speculation.
Thank you 🙏🏼🙏🏼❤
I would have liked a little better explanation on what to eat and what not to eat and how often, they're towards the end
just stumbled over this – wow it makes so much sense!
I'm not sure if this "diet" has a name, but I think the best strategy that works for everyone, is that you should always eat lots of protein. Then, if you eat any sugar/carbs, don't eat any fat, and if you eat any fat, don't eat any sugar/carbs.
That's the kind of video I was dreaming about. I've watched all the original full videos, but it's great to have all of them together. It's an invaluable piece of information. You're helping people with the best current knowledge on the subject.
Thank you, thank you very much for that.
Doesn't the body store fat based on previous evolutionary pressures that shaped us, for example maintaining balance?
Love these compilations, thanks, Steven!
