Please join me in welcoming Nina Teicholz! Nina explains that a low-carb ketogenic diet is the best way to support disease reversal.

There are over 100 clinical trials supporting that type 2 diabetes can be reversed in as little as 10 weeks. Hypertension, cardiovascular risk factors, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, and other chronic diseases can potentially also be reversed with dietary changes.

The reversal rate of type 2 diabetes with the standard of care from doctors is 0.1%. In clinical trials with patients following a keto diet, the reversal rate is more than 50%!

Insulin manufacturers and other drug companies primarily fund the American Heart Association and American Diabetes Association, so they are subject to direct conflicts of interest. Doctors have been taught to recommend low-fat diets, and there are countless baseless claims that keto is dangerous.

Dietary guidelines significantly influence most Americans. By law, all federal food programs are required to follow these guidelines. Health professionals also use them as the gold standard in nutrition. However, many conflicts of interest are involved in these guidelines, including ties to both Big Food and Big Pharma.

Giving accurate dietary guidelines to the American public is the best way to combat chronic disease.

To get into a healthy state of ketosis, you should eat eggs, dairy, meat, shellfish, vegetables, and low-sugar fruits. Carbohydrates trigger hunger. Without glucose, your body can access your fat stores for energy between meals.

0:00.0	What if I were to tell you that we could literally end chronic disease in 10 weeks?
0:05.0	Would you believe me?
0:06.0	Today I'm bringing on Nina Ticolz, one of the most credible experts in this area.
0:12.0	She is the best selling author. She has her PhD in nutrition and has been deeply involved in researching the dietary guidelines for over two decades. I think you're going to be thoroughly
0:22.6	blown away at this interview. So Nina, RFK has this huge goal of getting rid of chronic disease.
0:30.5	And you personally have studied this specific area of chronic disease and the dietary guidelines
0:35.8	for roughly at least 20 years, probably
0:38.5	longer than that. What, based on the most credible research, would you say, is the solution
0:45.0	to chronic disease? I think there's no question that the strongest, most rigorous evidence
0:52.9	to support disease reversal is with a ketogenic or low
0:57.8	carbohydrate diet. And what we have is more than 100 clinical trials now, which there's no
1:03.9	greater amount of clinical trial research except for on the Mediterranean diet, which does not have as
1:08.9	good results. There are more than 100 clinical trials showing that with a ketogenic or low carbohydrate diet, which does not have as good results. There are more than 100 clinical trials showing
1:11.6	that with a ketogenic or low carbohydrate diet, that not only can we reverse type 2 diabetes
1:17.9	in merely 10 weeks, but also hypertension, the vast majority of cardiovascular risk factors,
1:26.2	non-uncoholic fatty liver disease.
1:28.2	Ten weeks. I mean, an average doctor who's treating someone with type 2 diabetes,
1:33.1	how many weeks are they treating diabetes for?
1:36.3	The reversal rate where you reverse a type 2 diabetes diagnosis with standard of care,
1:42.5	that's 0.1%. Oh my gosh gosh. Clinical trials using a ketogenic diet,
1:49.5	often with support from a mobile app, that reversal rate is more than 50 percent. This is huge.
1:56.8	I mean, this should be all over the place. It should be on the news. Doctors should be using it.
