Watch Tim Noakes take on SA’s DIY YouTube sensation
South African DIY YouTube sensation, SuzelleDIY has uploaded a new video featuring sports scientist Professor Tim Noakes, who has become synonymous with a low-carb, high-fat diet, Banting.
Suzelle DIY is a Do-It-Yourself web series on Youtube, created by filmmaker and animator Ari Kruger and Julia Anastasopoulos. Uploads regularly attract in excess of 500,000 views.
Tim Noakes is a controversial figure in South Africa, due to his paleolithic diet, often referred to as the “Tim Noakes Diet” or Banting.
The term ‘bant’ originally referred to the use of a low carbohydrate diet for weight loss in the UK, and is in line with Noakes’s claims that high blood cholesterol is not a contributing factor to heart disease.
What makes Noakes controversial is that many claim that his diet is unscientific and even ‘dangerous’.
