I really like the saying "GENETICS LOAD THE GUN, LIFESTYLE PULLS THE TRIGGER". I think that's accurately representing the whole debate genetics X diet
@@mdoublehb9040 goo away spam!
Humans are genetically frugivores.
This saying sucks imo.
How can lifestyle pull the trigger in the case of chorea huntington f.e.?
I would hate people to health shame.
(Of cause, a healthy lifestyle is important and many of us (myself included) could do a bit better in this area.) I think this saying is oversimplifying the issue.
@@user-vq5nz6yk1h the phrase is clearly talking about shit like eating a crap diet, smoking cigarettes, going outside without sunscreen, etc. It doesn't need to be taken so literally and is generally good advice.
@@user-vq5nz6yk1h it doesn't apply to everything obviously, certainly not single gene disorders, but it is largely true for multifactorial diseases. It would also be more accurate to say environment rather than lifestyle - lifestyle is part of your environment, but it can also be things like viruses triggering autoimmune reactions or exposure to pollution - you need the exposure (to virus, pollution, saturated fat, a psychotropic drug, childhood trauma, etc) and also the genetics to react poorly to it. If there are risky exposures that you can limit by changing your lifestyle, it's a good idea to do so especially if you have personal or familial evidence that you might have vulnerable genetics.

I'm just a few minutes in and I just wanna say, no. I love your videos BECAUSE they're edited the way they are. I mean I'm here for the content too, duh, but the way you edit is a plus for me. Just sayin
P.s. been watching you since before your first born lol I just don't comment often
Completely agree, I also hate this "busy" type of editing, and also been watching pre-kids, go Swayze!
His total cholesterol is still high. Sub 200 mg/dl is optimal. His LDL at 190 was very high where optimal is considered < 100 mg/dl. I struggled for years to keep my total below 220, even 100% plant based, so eventually went onto statins that brought everything into optimal in every measure. Sometimes you just can’t out diet your genetics.
Agree! I’m a healthy weight. Mostly plant based and a 40 year old female and I’ve always had high cholesterol. It’s definitely genetic.
You actually want to have a total cholesterol below 150 ideally. A quarter of heart attacks still happen to folks with cholesterol below 200. Getting cholesterol below 150 without statins is very difficult to do on a standard western diet, even a good one. It usually requires adopting a Blue Zone or Vegan diet (even a vegetarian diet generally results in higher cholesterol due to the high consumption of cheese, which is mostly saturated fat).
@@Eileen62h How much saturated fat are you consuming? The American Heart Association recommends consuming less than 14-16g if you're at significant risk for heart disease.
@@Magnulus76 yeah .right... Lower than 200 is better than higher but lower than 100 makes takes to yet another level of security...
I would recommend you this channel named "nutrition made simple" ...he has a very unbiased approach... He should clear that up for you...
I haven’t heard about Dr. Mike in a minute! Probably an algorithm thing, but I thoroughly enjoy when you make a video on him.
Why?
Inside info on grocery store pickup! I worked at Target and did the shopping for grocery pickups (among everything else), and at the end of the day, it definitely comes down to time. We do not have the time to choose the best produce, given that we hardly have the time to choose *any* produce, in order to find everything in an order in time. If you see it, you scan it, and you move on, or you'll go over time (and even then, you still might go over time)
omggg are you still doing this? has it been over a year now? is this a bot or are you on welfare and just sit around doing this? so seriously amazed.
Lol @ the face you made when he started shilling for Walmart!
He's not really positive towards vegansim and he didn't do the challenge well, I think even you called him out about it.
Give him a break. He works 18 hours a day sometimes. It’s not like he has time to cook. He stated that he encourages his patients to go vegan if they are determined unlike 90% of doctors who always claim that it is not balanced enough.

His videos are definitely targeted towards younger demographic, I feel like his older videos were a bit more "neutral", but with time you could see it getting more and more childish in a way. Which is of course not a bad thing at all, whatever gets millions of kids to watch a doctor talk about health is a win in my book! But personally I stopped watching his channel quite a while ago, partially due to that.

Something about your recent videos really pop! Could be the backgrounds (I love those) but you seem really energetic!!! I am happy to see your uploads in my feed.
It makes me so relieved when I hear someone say out loud the things I feel about animals. I don't have any vegan friends/family and my partner is an omnivore so I feel alone in my thoughts about veganism sometimes. I work as a librarian in an elementary school and I found this book about farms last week that gave me extreme propaganda vibes. The whole, "animals live on the farm and everyone is soooo happy" stuff. I didn't like this being given to our kids and it felt weird to shelve it away as if it were a normal book. To everyone in my life, that sounds extreme but it feels like you would understand.
Totally understand
On the vast majority of farms I think the animals are well-cared for. Instead of bashing all animal farming we should bash those that mistreat their animals.
@@asarcadyn2414 It's the opposite though unfortunately. A lot of why animal products are affordable is all the cost cutting measures they take at the expense of the animals. It's industry practice
@@Wwetitanfan27 I live in Europe where the strict controls on animal farming lead to far fewer problems than is seen in the rest of world. Hormones and antibiotics in feed are banned for general use and strictly regulated for vet approved use only, as are the living conditions for the animals. I don’t think US meat or poultry makes into our food chain for this reason. I live in a farming region (Jutland, Denmark) and I am absolutely certain the vast majority of animal farmers here look after their animals well. Danish beef is very high quality, but it is the most expensive meat one can buy here because the conditions for raising cattle are so high. Pork and chicken is also high quality, but they aren’t as expensive to farm as cattle, and Denmark has specialised in pig farming for many years. Maybe you are right for the US, I don’t know, but I am right for Europe.
@@asarcadyn2414 Well, yes, I am in the US, and referring to the US, and assumed you were as well. I can't speak to what's occurring in Europe, but I have seen some Earthling Ed videos that have discussed happenings in Europe. Have you seen any of his videos? Also, I gather we'll disagree, but while I appreciate better quality of life, you're still taking someone's life away from them when you don't have to. And in the US, male cows and chickens are often killed AKA culled because they're not useful because they can't produce milk/eggs, and the females are killed once they are not as "productive". So even industries that are not meat result in death. Do you know if that happens in Europe?
LOVING the warmer lights, it flatters you so much
I like the style of your videos, it feels natural and easy to listen to, as opposed to the heavily edited type.
Somewhat random comment--that blouse is gorgeous! The cut, the gold buttons against the teal...! I can only see part of it but it looks super beautiful
Now waiting for Vegan Gains to challenge him to a fist fight over this.
Maintenance Phase told me that overweight people are more likely to survive heart attacks than standard weight or thin people. Weight is not the story, or at least not the story we think.
10:33 my local Kroger actually has a solid fresh produce section. Yet whenever I have my groceries delivered, the food usually arrives spoiled or damaged. I can’t imagine Walmart being any better
Stock footage cuts get on my nerves. A couple here and there, fine. But random clips thrown together to make one point in a video of ten points is just 😡
my dad was pretty unhealthy until his early 20s and then was pretty healthy, one of the healthiest people i’ve known in terms of diet and exercise, but he’s always had high cholesterol. it wasn’t until he went vegan/plant based for a year that his cholesterol dropped significantly
My diet before going plant based was Dr. Mike's after-fish, chicken, bean for protein sources and I still had a cholesterol issue. I went plant based to see if it would help. Two months in, the bloating finally subsided and I feel less brain fog. I'm not sure if going plant based improved my cholesterol, but the overall benefits ( health, environmental and animal) are certainly reason to continue.
Not a doctor, so don’t take this as medical advice. Just a couple of points to consider.
If going plant-based doesn’t do it, you might need to up your cardio and work your butt off, each and every day. If it doesn’t drop your LDL, it’s at least likely to up your HDL, which is also good for long term heart health.
And if that *still* doesn’t do it. Maybe give clean keto a try. Starving your body of carbs and forcing it to burn lipids *might* make it break down LDL. People on long-term keto (such as some epilepsy patients) tend to have good health outcomes as long as they eat their fruits and veggies.
Of course, if going plant based did it for you, no need to try something else. Just stick to what works.
Congratulations, and it doesn't hurt animals🎉👏😄
@@mdoublehb9040 If you have to declare yourself to be 100% correct and can’t handle any reasoned arguments to the contrary, deriding such people as ungrateful, insolent, and stupid… well, you’re probably full of shit.
You could always get tested to see how your cholesterol is affected by your new diet. I'd give it a few months because it takes time for the gut microbiome to adjust, and this impacts cholesterol levels.
Also, they have at-home test kits. I use the Curo L5 just to track my cholesterol after making dietary changes (I follow a plant-based diet also). I have experimented with use of different oils to see how they affect my cholesterol- so far using a little olive or canola oil hasn't hurt anything.
@KJ A Eating a diet with alot of saturated fat tends to lead to higher blood cholesterol levels.
Love your video editing!
Girl, when I’m in a pinch and have to order my groceries, I always tell my mom or whoever will listen “I think they purposely pick out the worst produce.” When I go to the store, I find the nicest apples, whereas, sometimes the hired shopper [i think] randomly throws the first apples they see into the bag. They’re underpaid so I always try to tip well. But holy Jesus, sometimes it’s just funny.
SAME!!!! Hahahaha, they could honestly care less. XD
I must say, i found out about your channel when you countered the WIL(what ive learned) video falsely claiming untruths about the impacts of factory farming on the environment and you. are. amazing! please keep up the great work💪🌱
Maybe it’s different in the states, but in the UK with supermarkets like tesco and Sainsbury’s you can check any fresh produce or any product when the delivery guy brings them over and return anything you no longer want then and there no questions asked, and they refund you right away.
I'm not vegan, can't say I intend to be one either but for some reason I'm here. I have to say I appreciate your honesty regarding stuff like ethics being a stronger reason for being vegan than health per se. Also the little moments about reading the fibre label, the coconut oil stuff, I enjoy those.
Anyway nice channel, I've watched other videos of yours as well.
@@mdoublehb9040 And that is why so many people resent vegans.
@@mdoublehb9040 eww spam
@@mdoublehb9040 then why are you spamming comments on all of unnatural vegans videos? There is absolutely no science that supports your claims.
Veganism isn't a diet it's an ethical movement. We don't want animals to have their throats cut for us.
Aside from when Walmart occasionally sends us non-vegan substitutes for items, we’ve had a pretty good experience with ordering produce and all our groceries. But then again we’re in California so that may play a role as well as far as the quality.
Yeah, her rant against Walmart sounded very elitist. Sometimes Walmart produce is the only convenient affordable option, and we just make it work!
@@mdoublehb9040 oh you are.... concerning
Your hair looks so good!
HAHAHA your face during that ad read got me good
I feel like I’m being called out for eating cake and rice pudding for breakfast because ‘it’ll go off if I don’t eat it’.
In Spain we are encourage to have a check up once a year, including always a bloodwork and other tests depending on age (like a mammography); but i think that most of us skip it because of our stressful lifestyle
That would be called a physical. Americans are supposed to have one done every year as well. But cost often gets in the way and most Americans don’t get their physical done because they can’t afford to do so.
@@oakyafterbirth2801 here it is part of the public system
I had my first blood test ever when working in Spain. Everything was fine it was cool.
In Ireland they don't let you see your results and no one ever gets them done unless they are sick. there is no recommendation to get them once a year
You have really encouraged me over the years. And my husband and I are transitioning to more conscious eating. Not vegan, but moving forward our goal is to only eat meats we have hunted. That way we aren’t feeding into mass production and are more of following the natural order of things. Plus, due to how much humans have messed up the environment, population management is needed on many wild species.
You could always hunt humans and eat them? After all we're the most overpopulated species on Earth and as you say we've messed up the environment.
If you live in an area with a lot of interesting, hippie-dippie small farms and agricultural co-ops, buying into a CSA is a great way to get fresh and varied produce, in-season and for a fair price. You’ll likely even get fruits and veggies that you just can’t find in stores.
On the other hand, if all you have are big industrialized farms for miles and miles, a CSA subscription is probably going to be a scam. You’ll just get whatever crap would otherwise go to Walmart, but for a huge markup.
Just something to look into if you are considering produce delivery. Sometimes, it actually does make sense. Sometimes.
the working out without food is MIND boggling to me. my partner goes on runs in the morning without food sometimes because it keeps their tummy from getting upset. but i can’t imagine not having fuel first personally!
Well I'm glad to hear he's doing better. It's a good thing.
I’m not a doctor but the one thing I learned is the more information you give someone the more ways to try to argue it. Like if you give someone an itemized bill for a job you’re doing they will try to cut corners to break down the cost which means the quality won’t be as good or it won’t be safe
I (from Germany) am always so schocked when I hear about the health care in other countries. I get a blood test done, every year and it's completely for free...
Ich bin auch sehr froh darüber, dass die Krankenkassen diese Kosten übernehmen.
@@mdoublehb9040 go away
Not really for free, you pay (or your spouse) up to 350 per month, but yeah, it’s almost nothing comparing to the US
@@domovenok33 It depends on what you earn. Because it is a social system. When you have no job you will get some money from the state and they will also pay your health insurance for you in that time. I guess the average person pays 2000 per Year. But your taxes are way higher. Health insurance is nearly nothing compared to that :D and its not only a blood test. I mean I had over 10 operations in my life and i have chronical deseases and I don't have to pay for my regular medicine. I would be a very poor American xD My Fiance hab an accident in 2019 and he stayes in hospital for 6 weeks plus 8 month of reha where he couldnt work and he didn't had any extra costs because of that. The opposite was the case. The state payed 80% of his salery in the tome he couldnt work.
And you never actively pay your health insurancey because its already taken from you pay check. So you dont realy notice ^^ I think I couldn't live without the American system, because whenever I need a doctor I can go there without thinking of a bill. And what comes on top: When you work and your husband/wife not you can insurance them completly for free. And your kids too. So you can pay one insurance with the price for one for a hole family..
When I watched that Walmart ad from him my reaction was "you live in NYC, you don't have a damn walmart." Pretty sure it's just a case of being paid to talk about a service he's never actually used. I don't really see it as a bad thing, especially for folks who shop there because it's the only option geographically or financially
Great video!
Besides mushrooms and scallions which I get from Kroger curbside pickup, I get a local produce box delivered. Quality is good. He doesn't stick to only organic or only local so he simply gets the best produce available and does local when possible but in E. TN local isn't doable all year round.
In the Netherlands all supermarkets do delivery and fresh produce is usually pretty good! But also, there is almost always a shop within 10min cycle. I think we do more small shopping trips compared to Americans. For us I think 1-4 times a week. But I could do a trip in literally 10min there and back, cause small supermarkets with loads of fresh produce are everywhere. In the US there are a lot more obesogenic environments.
I had a good laugh at your reaction to the ad 😂
Walmart pickup orders give me hard avocado and green plantains! If it's loose produce, I do it myself. If it's a bag (like a bag of apples), I'll just order it.
I always get good ones but I highly suspect it’s just luck so far lol!
Excellent video Unnatural vegan and the binge eating late night with unhealthy foods could be effecting his sleep pattern and if he doesn't change that he is going to be potentially suffering from chronic disease such as heart disease, stroke, cancer, diabetes, dementia etc so hopefully he does make changes before it's too late.
Yeah my worst experience with fresh produce has been with Walmart especially the one next to my house... I completely just stopped buying fresh produce from there because I don't think I ever got anything anymore that wasn't robbing or was bad when I opened it.
Worked for Instacart at Wegmans. A lot of customers would say stuff like "I forgot to add bagels to my Walmart order" and ask me to grab some when basically the rest of their order is produce. Feel like that isn't a good sign for Walmart grocery delivery.
ugh Dr. Mike lives in Manhattan there are no Walmarts in the NYC area so he isn't getting Walmart deliveries 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
I’m still an avid Pokémon fan, I’m in my 20’s and call it poky-mans to my young family members because it’s fun
Yup, I bit the bullet on grocery delivery, but drew the line at fresh produce. I go frozen for back up veggies lol.
I would like to speak on the validity of using a fiber supplement as someone with ibs. I eat a lot of fiber but most of it is insoluble fiber due to my vegan diet but when I take a fiber supplement it actually does help my constipation because it's 100% soluble fiber.
Great Video!!
I've bought good quality produce from Walmart, but I haven't had grocery delivery from them. I've also bought and had groceries delivered from Whole Foods and personally don't see the difference other than cost. Regardless, I mostly buy frozen vegetables and stick to fresh fruits, onions and potatoes to avoid wasting food.
Hey, that's very interesting what you say about produce delivery being low quality. It's the exact opposite where I live. Anytime I get a delivery, the produce is a really good quality because they know that once you make a bad experience you never order again.
I don’t know how but somehow the targets and Walmarts by me always have really fresh produce. I’ve been almost exclusively ordering groceries since the pandemic started and I pretty much always have a good experience. I live in Colorado and recently moved here from Kansas, so maybe location plays a role?
I was waiting for that twitch channel!
So I think with locations like mine (very rual) walmart is good. We have 4 stores to choose from so walmart keeps great produce here (better than aldi).
Actually find the delivery of fresh produce really interesting. We have gotten our groceries delivered quite a few times even before the pandemic (live in Sweden) and I have never ever experienced the fresh produce being bad. I guess Sweden is quite good when it comes to this.
What you described is exactly the reason I don't want to get grocery delivery
I have a good experience with food delivery, but in Poland you can buy fresh produce pretty anywhere ;)
I'm so glad you don't edit like that, both for the condescending element and also it practically gives me whiplash
Central Market is the place I can get good produce from with personal shopper. It is Texas grocer and you pay for 'personal shopper' fee
WHAT WHAT, you got a Twitch now? Nice
My dad eats quite well and has had stents put in and has taken cholesterol medication since he was pretty young. But he's still here at 71 and his brother died in his 50s... Some people are just unlucky and others are lucky but diet always has an impact.
I am one of those people who has the overproduction of cholesterol gene. I've been plant based for years and regularly exercising. Annoyingly my doctor ignored the "vegan" note on my chart and just told me to lay off the cheeseburgers every appointment for like 3 yrs then finally put me on a statin in my 20s bc I had LDL close to 200. Anyway, that's to say that we exist, so talk to your doc if your cholesterol is high even on a vegan diet. 😅
Yeah the terrible quality of produce being picked by instacart is really disappointing as an immunocompromised person that is still very careful about going to stores. It’s upsetting when sometimes 90% of my produce is unusable
Kroger in my area is pretty good about produce. Stuff I'm picky about (avo, apples, etc.) I buy myself
My parents and teachers would say "Poke-ee-man," and BOY did it piss my brother and me off. 😆
I've used Walmart drive up since the start of the pandemic (hadn't shopped there for 15+ years, I was wary). I've ordered potatoes, bananas, apples, and parsley fresh. Surprisingly-- only had problems a couple times, always with potatoes and twice damaged packages on silk yogurt and almond milk jug. Their refund process takes a few seconds with the app. But to play it safe, I get frozen produce whenever possible. I miss tomatoes. 😢
Idk how people can live on low fiber diets. I have to be on a regular daily schedule so I eat steamed broccoli on autopilot lmao.
Isn't it funny to hear someone ask how many days you've gone without pooping, when the real question is how many times (on schedule) you poop per day? :-D
I live in a country with free universal medical care, and we do as much testing if not more than in my experience in the Us (where I lived until I was 40).
I’ll just say, I’ve always had a really great experience with Walmart grocery pickup.
I love your shirt and necklace in this video
We used Tesco delivery once. They didn't have any of the eco detergent left so they replaced it with a fucking bathmat??
There is no extra expense if more people get blood work done. The reason things are expensive is because of the manipulation by the insurance companies not because people are getting blood work.
to get cheaper frozen berries- you could try to get wonky berries (so berries which are sold cheaper because their not normal sizes) or you could just buy berries and freeze them. I get bags of strawberries for £1 from my local fruit and veg store, then I freeze them!
Aren't frozen berries cheaper?
11:50 In Australia I get my groceries delivered from woolworths around 6pm every fortnight and they pick the best fresh produce, better than I can pick I'm terrible at picking a good watermelon! We do have pretty high standards here when it comes to food down under.
Given Mike is a successful dude, also highly assuming he probably lives in an upper class area. Chain stores can be surprisingly different depending on location. Me and my Mum sometimes drive to richer suburbs to get certain fancy items we can't find more local to us haha
Woolies delivery is actually amazing. But I also feel like Australian groceries stores are a lot more picky about the produce that they will even display in general. I can't remember the last time I went to a main chain supermarket and saw rotten produce
@@rosemanning2508 100% with you on this. I've only really had one bad experience in Australia when I bought from a kinda pop up grocery store in the middle of a plaza. I was going through the checkout and the woman who owned it seemed super edgy and odd. Later when I bit into a protein ball I immediately could tell it was expired along with basically everything I bought hahahaha. Now I know why she was super on edge she was scared I'd discover it was expired before I checked out. But definitely never had bad produce in a main chain supermarket!
My first thoughts is that there can be degrees of bloating. His bloating might have been medium but settled down after 2-3 weeks on on plant-based. Where on vegan it might have been very bad and did not settle down.
The "plant-based" diet is the vegan diet, it just doesn't include the lifestyle part.
Bloating can occur for different reasons, but try a probiotic to see if that helps. I switched overnight, but I was already a Flexitarian prior (ate meat, but only 1-3 times a week), so I was used to eating mostly plants already. If his bloating is due to the sudden spike in fiber, adding more gut flora to break it all down should resolve it. Again, could be something else (stress-induced, an allergy, etc.) so I can't say for sure this would resolve it for him, but it's an easy try to find out.
This is why I still shop in the store. I don't trust other shoppers to pick out my produce. We eat a lot of fruit and I like to check the packages. I've found mold more than once and I'd rather not bring that home with me.
Yes I agree with that 👍 I prefer to shop in a physical store for fresh produce for the reasons you stated because I only trust myself to pick the best produce.
Loving this look on you!
Is he sane? "fiber suplement"? WTH ...
Walmart actually has the freshest produce within 45 miles of me but, sadly, there's no delivery here.
0% chance that rich as f dr mike uses Walmart + in NYC lol
@@Hedgeflexlfz No way!
I work produce and it a pain to find all the bad shit everyday, but me and my team make sure that shit gets done.
Hmm, super interesting about testing in the US. I'm in Australia, and I've never actually had a doctor suggest bloodwork other than one time I was on a medication that needed monitoring. The other times have been when I've had an std test that I requested.
I don't know if it's that relevant since I live in Norway and we have different stores, but when I order food online from the shop there's a box where you can specify or comment on your order, so I always type that I want the produce to be in good condition and would rather have unripe than overripe items. The first time I tried to order, and didn't know about this "trick", the produce sucked - but every time I've specified I've never gotten as much as a brown banana. :)
I order produce through misfits market. It’s usually pretty good. 👍
70 grams of fiber holy cow!!!!!! i eat pretty healthy but don't think i'm anywhere near that
We have four grocery stores in our area where I shop ( I don't shop at ALDI's). Walmart has a crummy produce section. My daughter works there and she agrees that their produce section sucks. Krogers is better but it is hit and miss, nothing to shout about. Meijers is the next best but it is not A rated either. The best we have in our area is Fresh Thyme. Fresh Thyme is better than all the rest both in terms of freshness and selection. There is a Whole Foods but it is so far away that I don't shop there. I wish we had one closer. I have a garden in the summer and that is where I get some really good fresh produce. I am not vegan but I am emotionally sympathetic to veganism, but I just have not been able to make that switch. But even at that I do eat a lot of veggies and fruit and do cook some meatless meals.
Suggestion for a new video: Leena Norms just released a video "why I'm not a vegan". I'd really like to see your reaction.
Fun fact: the best way to diagnose narcissism is to ask "are you narcissist", also "do you value yourself more then most people" is a standard question. And yes a lot people will say "no"
Yup! "Are you a narcissist?" "Hm, well maaaybe, but what's so wrong with that, anyway?" = You're a narcissist. :-) "Oh shit, maybe. I fucking hope not!" = You're not a narcissist.
I didn't watch the original video, but did they really just kinda gloss over the saturated fats in animal products to highlight coconut oil of all things? It feels purposefully avoidant of animal product reduction to call out coconut oil by name - a substance that many use in minuscule quantities, if at all, but not any of the myriad of animal products that people feel compelled to include at every single sitting
Oh she talks about dairy and other animal products right after that. I didn't include every part of his video.

I have bad genetics and I have never used that as an excuse not to care for myself! I think feeling defeated by genetics is silly. If you had cystic fibrosis and you were lucky to make it to twenty you should eat right in a way that is enjoyable because eating well will make you as healthy as possible and feel better.
I try to eat right. I absolutely love salads and soups and I eat one or the other basically every day. Also smoothies. I maintain a healthy weight and I always have and I think this is important to limit the damage I could be doing to my body or my body do to itself. I also take three supplements since I have discovered I am awful at absorbing nutrients from food; multi, B12, magnesium. I try to limit unhealthy eating to snacking and limit the snacking and unhealthy kind of snacking. I also try to be active every day. My main issue right now is I have the most difficulty eating enough fruit in fall. I get sick of apples and bananas.
Your hair looks gorgeous
I’m from New Jersey and I always see bugs all over the fruits and vegetables
honestly nobody checks the produce!!!
I order from Walmart and also pretty healthy food and I honestly think it's pretty good hahaha! Even the produce! But I'm also located in Canada not the US, idk if that makes a difference
You look so cute! Hair is on point! Love your top! And your background is super cute and complements you :)
I love Walmart+. I don't get fresh produce from them though.
I live in Austin, TX. I would far prefer to have a Kroger somewhere nearby, for sure, or a Meijer for any of my Ohio/Michigan/Indiana folks. BUT, we have HEB grocery stores and their curbside and delivery produce is stellar. I have not one time ever received a single item that was sub par.
And for clarity, HEB isn’t a specialty chain. It’s just the most abundant grocery store in Texas.
