Again bending the data to bust a myth. You parse your words carefully so it's hard to nail you on specific points showing your general conclusion is incorrect. However your conclusion is incorrect. Again, most of what you say is correct but your missing some key points. Generally avoiding carbs/food increases the fasting window. That alone induces hormonal responses that lead to a healthier overall body and weight loss. Again, limiting carbs at night is universally accepted as a good thing. If you are promoting eating carbs in the evening (as your video implies. I love your videos but these myth videos really highlight the fact that you clearly need to learn more about the hormonal side of things when it comes to weight loss. Stop these myth bust videos. Hate to see you becoming so misleading when your large body of work is so good.

I heard in my Nutrition class about the receptors in our small intestines that detect di-peptides and tri-peptides to then release proteases to break down the peptide chains into single amino acids, don't actually detect single Amino Acids ex. BCAA supplement drinks. Could you do a video about whether BCAA drinks are actually beneficial to building muscle, or is it not as effective as the industry claims? (I hope that made sense. your videos are awesome keep it up PS. let me know if you're ever in Lethbridge AB. Id love to do a workout session together, get some tips from you.

Jeff, this is the first time I have ever commented on any video on here, but you deserve the effort mate. I think I have seen everything you have done and I honestly think you are the best at it. Your opinions are based on well presented facts from solid research; delivered impeccably with a nice flow and no BS. Keep up the great work pal. Here is an idea for a Myth Buster which I have just been in a debate about. What do you think about the TR90 plan? Any science behind the supplements or just another cleverly marketed expensive diet plan?

I would think thatmaybe having a huge meal before bed might not be a good idea because u would get alot of energy from it. And then when u want to go to sleep, u would have to much energy still so it would effect your sleeping habits. Thus not getting enough rest and maybe your body would not recover enough or maybe make u more succeptable to eating more the next day, because u didnt have enough sleep. But maybe thats only for me. I try to stay away from huge meals before i go to sleep, else i wont be able to go to sleep right after the meal.

What about nutrition partitioning at night? Level of insulin or sensitivity to insulin? Are those different and would they have an effect even if metabolic rate is unchanged at night? This video made me very happy because I tend to eat dinner late, but upon further research I have more questions. Tried including some links to other research but they didn't post so I'll leave it open. In other words, is there truly no difference in fat storage and metabolism for the same meal had at 6pm and one had at 10pm, assuming no obesity?

Jeff, do YOU eat carbs before going to bed? You really do that? Independently from reading and commenting all the CURRENT (latest) studies, which could be easily contradicted by opposite conclusions in future studies (it happens all the time in the scientific world, it would be interesting to know what do YOU, yourself, CONCRETELY do or don't do with your body, to get the amazing results you have. I mostly work out very late, just before sleeping. As a post workout shake I get whey protein, still avoiding carbs. Honestly.

This is such a tough concept to grasp. I guess if you eat a pizza or pasta before bed, you are mostly feeling bloated from the process of digestion itself, but it still feels as if the food will not get broken down as easily than if you took a walk or did some sort of running around after eating a carby meal. I simply cannot see this as a benefit though and dont think your body will break it down. I guess moderation is key regardless.

Jeff, what do you think of Steven Gundry, MD's Plant Paradox eating program? Popcorn and beer are off limits with it btw. He is big on restoring gut health and avoiding leaky gut syndrome. Minimize lectin consumption and only eat locally grown vine ripened fruit in the summer months and never throughout the rest of the year to avoid bodyfat gain except going into the winter months. Quite interesting ground breaking info he has discovered.
