Research shows that in terms of weight loss, fasted cardio isn’t any better than ‘fed’ cardio. That’s quite the discrepancy in amount.Īnd the fasted cardio routine? Fine for some, and for others, not so much.
Weirdly, Oz admits that MCT oil doesn’t have a recommended dose, so you can put anywhere between 1 teaspoon and 2 tablespoons of it into your drink. And to give the impression that it does is irresponsible. But adding fat to your coffee in some random amount is not going to help you wake up the next morning weighing 10 pounds less.
If it did, everyone would easily be at their ideal weight. Should I say it louder for the people at the back? OMG! So annoyed right now.įat doesn’t burn fat. While it’s true that MCTs are burned more efficiently than other fats, that doesn’t mean that you should be consuming MCTs to ‘burn fat.’ It’s like when people eat tablespoonfuls of coconut oil to ‘burn fat.’ He claims that MCT oil can burn fat, which is false AF. The reasoning behind the coffee rule is that MCTs can help with satiety, and while you’re fasting, not feeling hungry is a good thing. System 2020 says to start your day with a ‘fasted cardio routine’ and no food except for a black coffee that has MCT (medium chain triglyceride) oil in it. If you don’t have the research, don’t make the claim. Worms, fleas, monkeys, and a 1930s rodent study.Īre people actually reading this stuff and thinking that a worm study proves anything about the human lifespan?!įu*k! I think I just sprained my eyeballs from rolling them so hard. Since then, similar experiments of caloric restriction had shown to prolong the lifespan of worms, fleas, and even monkeys.” “(Intermittent fasting) started back in the 1930s when Cornell researcher Clive McKay found that rodents who consumed less calories led them to live longer, healthier lives. But Instead of posting human research – because there is none for IF that looks specifically at lifespan, he posts this: One of the reasons why Oz loves IF is that he claims that it improves longevity. Don’t worry though, I’m sure Oz will have another ‘miracle cure’ ready and waiting! When you can’t sustain a diet, you go back to where you came from. Especially when it’s low in calories, but more on that later. And when something is restrictive and tough to follow, people can’t sustain it. Intermittent fasting has some pretty solid research going for it, but it’s not for everyone, especially those with a history of eating disorders, pregnant women, or type-1 diabetics.Ĭombining it with a very low carb diet like System 20 does, can be super-restrictive and tough to follow. I think we should address the IF part right off the bat, because that’s a huge part of System 20. Because that’s what it is, plus a couple of bullsh*t additions along the way. Our society trusts medical professionals to be legitimate and honest.Īnd if he was, he’d call System 20 a low carb intermittent fasting diet. Oz, because it has been said plenty of times, but for someone who is a DOCTOR and should be evidence-based, he really misses the mark here. I can’t believe I have to say this AGAIN about Dr. But the nutrition part of System 20 – which is why we’re here – is pretty brutal. Sleep hygiene is really important, I’ll agree with that. Sure, go to bed at the same time every night. It sort of looks like the cover of Women’s World Daily Magazine, which incidentally is the usual vehicle for Oz’s crap: The System 20 plan is made up of 20 ‘rules,’ which you can see on this infographic I got off of Oz’s site. Oz claims that ‘dieting is dead,’ and we all need something healthy and non-diet to help us ‘take our health into our hands.’ Okay then! Oz’s weight loss and lifestyle plan for 2020, having launched this month for the new year. Oz to write this review of the System 20 Diet, which Dr. I have to put aside my revulsion of everything Dr.
