We’re shining the light back on saturated fat in this special JIMMY RANTS on The LLVLC Show Episode 1656. Want to know the latest on this important part of our diet? Stay tuned. “If saturated fat is somehow the enemy, then wouldn’t we see a whole bunch of heart disease in these countries where saturated fat intake is higher?” -Jimmy Moore Think about the low-fat diet and how so many people have just always believed it was the “healthy“ way to eat. It’s incredible how that belief is so strong in most people that they don’t even know why they believe it. When you ask them to explain why they think low-fat diets are good for you, they usually give you a funny look back as if you’re a space alien with two heads—because cutting fat being healthy is so OBVIOUS!⁣ ⁣ But it’s an important question to ask people why they believe cutting fat is the answer to health. Because when you look at things like dietary guidelines, low-fat diets have been nutritional public policy for the past four decades and counting. And the

Ede Fox from The Black Keto and Carnivore Community and host of The Black Carnivore Podcast is our special interview guest on Episode 1655 of The Livin’ La Vida Low-Carb Show. “A Black, paying member of this community has a problem and quits and that doesn’t matter to you.” -Ede Fox Ede Fox is a carnivore podcaster at The Black Carnivore and her goal is to provide all the information you need to make the keto or carnivore diet a way of life. She shares stories from new and veteran keto/carnivore folks that will inspired you to transform your life and seek optimal health. By her family’s history, she should have high blood pressure, heart disease & be a 300lb diabetic by now, but five years ago she took control of her health and turned that around. Cutting carbs was hard but once she got through it & became fat adapted, she was amazed at how great she felt. Suddenly she had tons of energy, lost 80lbs & most importantly felt like she had a healthy way of eating that was sustainable for a lifetime!

Why is fake fat making the headlines again? In this special JIMMY RANTS on The LLVLC Show Episode 1654, Jimmy talks about this troubling, but not surprising, new trend. “Babies have been breastfed forever, what makes us think in 2020 we have found the answer to a problem nobody knew existed before now?” - Jimmy Moore For those of us of a certain age, we remember back in the low-fat era a very interesting new product that was introduced primarily through potato chips. It was called Olestra and it promised to give us all the flavor of fat in a potato chip without all the calories and fat grams that were causing us to be fat and sick. It was promised to be a healthier option and so many Americans tried it. ⁣ ⁣ It didn’t take long for the stories to leak out (all pun intended) of explosive diarrhea and anal leakage after consuming this man-made fat. Not surprisingly, Olestra was taken off the market and we thought this would discourage any future fake fats from coming on the scene. If only we were that lucky. ⁣

“I wanted to be fit, but that didn’t mean smaller and doing literally everything possible to shrink myself. It’s about being healthy at every size.” – Shelby Gordon Shelby Gordon from @fit.flexible.fluid stops by The LLVLC Show today to talk with Jimmy about how health and wellness advice is perceived by the non-white community, and why the advice we sometimes give could be perceived as racist. Listen in today as Jimmy and Shelby have a real talk about body positivity and what that means for people of all backgrounds. Shelby shares her heart with Jimmy in this episode, including how diet culture and weight science has historically been racist and how racism continues to influence the diet culture industrial complex, weight stigma, as well as compromised health care for Black patients. Shelby highlights the false claims about fat people having a higher propensity to fall victim to the Covid-19 due to weight and the recent electro shock about the racial injustice Black people still experience has focused a how

Jimmy talks about how Dr. Gary Fettke and Pete Evans fight for the nutritional truth in Australia. “For four years this doctor had the answer for his patients’ illnesses but was prevented from sharing the truth with them.” – Jimmy Moore When medical doctors take the Hippocratic oath to “first do no harm,” then you would assume that means they will do anything within their arsenal of knowledge and experience to make their patients better. Unfortunately, though, this doesn’t seem to apply to those doctors who have become educated on the role of nutrition in the health of their patients. And we’re seeing it all over the world right now we are doctors using a dietary approach like keto are being brought before their medical review board to explain what they are doing. Isn’t this infuriating? I just don’t understand how a doctor promoting a natural health remedy like rating real food is somehow harming their patients in any way whatsoever. Now you and I both know the close ties that mainstream medical doctors hav

Mindset specialist Dean Dwyer is our special interview guest on Episode 1651 of The Livin’ La Vida Low-Carb Show. “There’s a tendency to just do ‘stuff’.

In this special JIMMY RANTS on The LLVLC Show Episode 1650, Jimmy talks about Diabetes Canada’s response to low-carb diets after a thorough examination of the evidence. “We know that people that have insulin resistance metabolic syndrome are the targets for a low-carb diet, and they’re seeing that in clinical practice.” – Jimmy Moore It’s always nice to see a government agency come to support what we all recognize as a better way of eating. Diabetes Canada, according to their website, is the nation’s most trusted provider of diabetes education, research, resources, and services. We’ve helped millions of Canadians affected by diabetes understand it, manage it, and combat complications since 1953. In April of 2019, The American Diabetes Association published a consensus report not only endorsing low carb as an option but also acknowledging that reducing carbohydrates is the most effective way to lower blood sugar, regardless of overall diet. A short time earlier, Diabetes UK and Diabetes Australia also publish

Army veteran, powerlifter, and Keto advocate Ron “Big Black” Garrett is our special interview guest on Episode 1649 of The Livin’ La Vida Low-Carb Show. “We have to realize that the prejudices we have in our neighborhood, they are learning the same thing in their neighborhoods. Somebody has to take the initiative to change.” – Ron “Big Black” Garrett Army veteran and powerlifter Ron ‘Big Black’ Garrett, started Keto in October of  2017 after a diagnosis of diabetes. Being a former bodybuilder and currently a powerlifter, this diagnosis was devastating. After a month and a half, Ron went from an HBA1C of 8 down to 6.3 and a month later was no longer diabetic with an HBA1C of 5.3. Currently, HBA1C is at 5. Ron lost a total of 70 lbs. From a mentor at church, and through the prayers of his wife, Ron found keto and became an advocate, helping to spread the benefits of Keto among his family, coworkers, and friends. Listen in today as Jimmy and Ron talk about the recent developments that we’ve all been seeing in th

Have you participated in any of the protests going on this past week? In this special JIMMY RANTS on The LLVLC Show Episode 1648, Jimmy talks about some of the hurdles to wider acceptance of the Back Lives Matter movement. “People are afraid to say anything because they are afraid that questioning will be met with screaming and name calling.” – Jimmy Moore The news has been dominated over the last few days with coverage of the latest protests triggered by the brutal police abuse causing the horrific murder of George Floyd. We have seen protests all over the country erupt from this senseless act of violence. During this time we have seen members of the white community left not knowing how to respond and react. There seems to be a communication breakdown, and here are some of the ways Jimmy has noticed that we could communicate together in a more constructive way. The time is now for the white community to have these conversations in an open forum to help the black community overcome oppression.⁣ ⁣ 1. They’re

What about the information we’re being given from the purveyors of conventional wisdom in the health and nutrition space? Should we just blindly accept the advice given by them, or should we use the tools we’ve been given to find out exactly what’s going on and how best to take care of ourselves and the ones we love? Find out in this dynamic episode today!

“For a lot of people they see simply a headline and they go no further. They’re not actually looking at a study, they’re looking at the reporting of a study.” – Jimmy Moore Health headlines can be enough to make you lose your marbles sometimes. If you only read headlines, you would be all over the place nutritionally. These headlines are there to catch your attention, even if the underlying science isn’t necessarily telling you what the headline conveys. In this special edition of JIMMY RANTS on The LLVLC Show, Jimmy tears apart one such instance and shows why you can’t necessarily trust what you read in the news.

Why are What If questions deemed so dangerous, especially right now? Let’s find out together in this special JIMMY RANTS on The LLVLC Show Episode 1644. “Whatever you believe, make the argument for the opposite side. Know the counterargument to make sure you are on the right side of the issue.” - Jimmy Moore One thing the keto food/real food community has always prided themselves on is the ability to look behind the veil of whatever the modern mantra of health and nutrition is to get to the true facts of the matter. So naturally, when Covid-19 came along we started turning our critical thinking eye towards the news reports we are seeing each day. It’s easy to see where the actual science is, and where people are so easily led astray. Listen in today as Jimmy breaks down why exactly having a critical eye and critical thinking are so important, especially right now.

Dr. John Limansky is our special interview guest on Episode 1643 of The Livin’ La Vida Low-Carb Show. “Why can’t we say 'This is real, but is it the end of the world?

What is going on with the meat industry during this time of Covid-19? We get to the bottom of it in this special JIMMY RANTS on The LLVLC Show Episode 1642. “If the unintended consequence of Covid-19 is that more people visit their local farmers for their meat, then that is wonderful.” – Jimmy Moore One of the strangest victims of the Covid-19 pandemic has been the meat industry and the systems by which meat is processed and delivered to grocery stores. We have said for years that people need to be in touch with where their meat is raised and know exactly what it takes for you to have that delicious steak on your plate. What this global pandemic has done is to show us exactly where the system has been broken for quite a while, as well as to expose the agendas of the anti-meat crowd. Those same people see this as a prime opportunity to enact what they believe is what you should be eating, namely vegan. Listen in today as Jimmy exposes what is going on behind the scenes and shows you what to watch for during t

Healthtech executive Jim Howard is our special interview guest on Episode 1641 of The Livin’ La Vida Low-Carb Show. “If people really want to know about themselves, they will look at biomarker data on top of what your food intake is.

What ever happened to Butter Bob? The answer might surprise you in this special JIMMY RANTS on The LLVLC Show Episode 1640. “His heart was in only educating people. Why do we have to turn this into an argument?” – Jimmy Moore Butter Bob came on the low-carb, high-fat scene a few years ago with a video that quickly went viral all about his journey from fat to thin called Butter Makes Your Pants Fall Off. This common sense, down to earth explanation of why eating the keto way is the natural way to get your body to respond to food the way you want it to resonated deeply with a huge number of people. Bob Briggs, or Butter Bob as he became known quickly became a spokesperson for the common man who could relate to the every day struggles of so many people. Bob made a number of videos, started a blog, and seemed to be doing well when all of a sudden he just disappeared. What happened to Butter Bob Briggs? And what lessons can we learn from Bob’s journey? Listen in today to find out.

Are alternative health voices being censored? That’s what we look at today in this special JIMMY RANTS on The LLVLC Show Episode 1638. “Who gets to determine what speech gets protected and what gets silenced? This is a very real concern.” – Jimmy Moore As we enter another month of quarantine due to Covid-19, more and more information is coming out from alternative voices as to the best course of action to fight this disease. But are all voices being heard? Nutrition has long been a topic where alternative voices are needed to fight against the official stances on things like obesity and food related illnesses. Why are those same voices being silenced over this? Listen in today as Jimmy explores what is going on with the apparent silencing of voices that question the official narrative and who might disagree with groups such as the World Health Organization and the information they are putting out there. Is something going on here? You be the judge.
