My grandfather told me when he was young and it was times of war and hunger, one quite big family near him ate only potatoes for a year they had grown themselves. They survived just because of that.
That how the Irish survived, plant grain and raise animals to pay your rent, grow potatoes to keep your family fed
Woahh man. That was rude AF to shut the doctor off like that
Big pharma was calling ....
I just think it's amazing I've lost over 100 pounds eating starches, vegetables, fruits, grains, nuts, seeds, mushrooms, olives, whole plant foods....and I don't limit sugar.
Please keep this a secret. It's fun to see others go through unsuccessful, after unsuccessful hoops.
There is nothing fattening about a potato...It's the stuff you ADD to it that makes it unhealthy!!!!!! Dr Rachael said, "if I ate potatoes all day, I'd look like a potato." How would she know unless she experimented it herself? Please don't make claims like that unless you have facts to back it up. I challenge Dr Rachael to try it for a month.
Exactly! Out of all starches, I enjoy potatoes the most. I was a French Fry fanatic as a kid and now as an adult I can make it a lot healthier. Oil-free is the key.
Love this!
Poor Irish farmers used to live off on potatoes and milk which provided all the nutrients needed to survive. That why the potato famine was so devastating in the 1800s
Junbug87 so they are what they needed yet it was devastating??
@@erxfav3197 they got everything they needed from the potatoes but then the irish potato famine occured where edible potatoes couldn't be grown anymore
The only things required on a potato only diet is B12 and D3 (preferably by running naked up and down your street).
> potato famine was so devastating ...
How does it compare with the obesity, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, fatty liver, dementia and cancer epidemic of today?
I'm here because potatoes are one of the few foods that do NOT give me a migraine.
I get headaches from certain food too. Used to last for days until I learned that if i throw up the headache goes away. very acidic but once its out my stomach will instantly start digesting and it feels so good. Drink a little water after vomitting. Lay down. Take like one asprin and gd t go. Hope you figure it out. Dark choclate and fatty or dark pork gave me the worst migraines. Theyre called stomach headaches. Saw a documentary on it.
@@zebrastripes875 worst health advice ever
Take some magic mushrooms psilocybin cubensis whatever and you don't have to do it once and you'll never have a migraine again ever ever like ever again. There's even studies been done on it. Had migraines so bad I contemplated suicide after taking psilocybin magic mushrooms Liberty camps I've never had another migraine I didn't make the connection for a while but I was thinking about it you know and then I read an article about a year after that to confirmed it so yeah it's a real thing
@@popeantichrist8847 Ive been curious about that. interesting. I got off "the pill" and they got a lot better
@@VinesThroughTime better means you're still having it do a psilocybin trip you'll never have another migraine again
Everything in moderation doesn't work for everyone.
If you have a food addiction it seems that eating only rice or only potatoes can dramatically improve your relationship to food, lower your weight & cure many chronic diseases.
The mainstream media are not permitted to openly promote or encourage such approaches because it would seriously damage the junk food industry, the confectionary industry plus massively (excuse the pun) the medical industry.
Imagine millions more people being clear of obesity, chronic diseases, fatigue, tooth decay & cancers.
A far healthier world but also far less profit for those who prey on one's weaknesses & addictions.
Absolutely! I don’t understand why it’s not okay to follow this potato diet but it’s okay when Americans eat 3,500 calories a day and get super obese. There are far worse things you could do to your body then eat only potatoes.
these commenters were dismissive af. Notice how the doctor was thanked for his "opinion" and the focus on do what you works for you. Its a veiled way of saying this is weird. The man lost 35 pounds eating one food alone with no health defects. This is amazing. then think about the versatility of the potato. You have fries, chips, hashbrowns, mashed potatoes and the list goes on. They're AMAZING
Can't fully promote a real easy affordable diet plan that everyone can do if it actually helps people. Then you don't need day time TV doctors to talk about being unhealthy.
Dr. McDougall is the only doctor I will listen to.
What's important is what Andrew and Dr Mcdougall are saying.. Oil and fat free.... The interviewer said.. "if you eat a healthy diet of whole foods that grow out of the ground you will be doing well" paraphrased..which is exactly what Dr Mcdougall teaches
it was absolutely okey and safe for me . when the doctor asked me to follow only potatoes diet because of my stomach problems it was totally ok for me and I lost weight quickly and in healthy way.
Tv Guy : Man has been on potato only diet for 1 year
Man : So this is day 43...
😆
Yeah I noticed hat too!
Just goes to show that plants are all that really matter in your diet!
Aka "The Martian" diet 😂
Aka "Poor people" diet 😂
He never said potato only was the best diet wtf lol he is just trying (and succeeding) to loose weight. Same for Freelee the Banana girl. She never said banana only was the best diet, and she never ever even ate just bananas.
"If I ate nothing but potatoes all day I'd look like a potato"
(Audience Laughter)
.......
Would you? Would you grow overweight/pear-shaped if you did the potato diet? Did you try it before cracking off that little joke?
Yeah man. 😆😆
And if she ate pork or beef?
Dr mcdougal is spot on …… we are startch eaters ❤️he is amazing and has helped so many people
The problem is processed cooking oil. It takes 98 cobs of corn to produce 5 table spoon of oil. You can easily use that amount frying some eggs and hash browns. If you go to a starch diet, you have to cut out the vegetable oil or your mitochondiras will begin to get damaged, and your A1C levels will creep up.
McDougall is right.
Why Only Potatoes? Because a diet low in protein and low in fat increases metabolic rate (via FGF21) while increasing health & live span (like that of the Traditional Okinawans).
How many hours of nutritional training did any of those doctors have in medical school ??? They are a disgrace to the medical community !
Switch up to a healthy different food every two weeks. Penn Jillette lost 100 pounds... 1/3 of his weight and kept it off. He has a new, healthy lifestyle and is very happily vegan now. He also allows a "cheat day" about every two weeks. I need to lose about 30 pounds I gained due to an illness and am still limping from a broken leg. I'm trying to do what he did before I get any heavier. I'm not used to low activity, but have no choice. I want my clothing to stop shrinking! 😂.
1:17
Omg lmao!!!! That expression says it all
There is a great explanation about this in the book The Martian
Matt Damon did amazing on his spuds.
I think people go to "extremes" because the information out there is too confusing. They don't know what to do and what not to do because so many people say different things. So they try one thing for a long time. Nothing wrong with that. If anything it's fool proof. You know what you're having breakfast lunch or dinner. I hear many people say having one thing all the time makes them feel a lot better and makes life a lot easier.
Read his back story then you'll get what he's on about.
well balanced diet, that's the best. I came here worrying i was eating too many potatoes but apparently i'm fine 😜, i wouldn't be able to eat them without something else.
Some people enjoy potatoes
I DID IT BEFORE AND LOST ALOT OF WIGHT
I eat a lot of potatoes but also chicken (no read meat, I hate it 🤢) but rice, beans, eggs, avocados, bananas, milk etc. I dont fry anything at home and I.dont like eating fried things.. happy to know potatoes are good for me. I eat them with olive oil and roasted garlic
The truth is, most overweight people suffer from food addiction. One overlooked fat is that the potato is the probably the densest mono-food that people are experimenting with. If I can't live without snacking in front of the T.V., Well an hour of eating bananas has a heck of a lot more calories than an hour of eating air fried potato strips. You allow yourself a little organic dark chocolate, and the next thing you know, you're eating a whole bar every night. For those 5 or 6 hundred calories, I can air fry a couple pounds of potatoes and that has to be the healthier route. Mono food diets in general can cure food addiction, which is the underlying cause of obesity. It's not what we're eating so much as how much of it we're eating!
I’m here cos I am an hostel student and don’t know how to cook except potato 🥔 and been eating since 6 days 🤣🤣
I'm Irish.. I love spuds.
This is amazing 🤣
Lol you guys got owned by dr mcdougall!
Do they realize how the Irish survived?
There is a supportive facebook group for this diet called Potato Diet Hack.
Dr McDougall is board certified and practiced for many years and has help many to recover their health with diet as the primary tool.
It was nice that they respected his decision, unlike the carnivore diet episode with Paul Saladino where they completely ripped into him
That lady in the middle is so stupid
Dr McDougall has practiced for many years and has help many to recover their health with diet (not drugs) as the primary tool.
I think it’s interesting that unless someone has a true NEED to eat a certain way they will not understand the methods of others. Just be accepting that people are usually doing things like this because of a deep reason to.
Peanut butter closes the throats of some… do we question that they stopped eating peanut butter? No, we believe them that they have a strong enough reason that you have not experienced.
Be gentle with others in their own reasons that you know nothing about.
Same with people having “strange” to you behaviors out of past traumas to keep peace or protection that others don’t need.
I have been eating a lot of potatoes for the past few weeks and watching YT videos on the potato diet.
My question is - What is the difference between eating only potatoes, and eating potatoes and some other food (maybe on a separate day) such as avocados. So far I have not found any YT video that answers this question of mine. I sort of understand why people do mono diets like only orange juice, grapes, or carrot juice - but since potatoes are are almost (or might be) a nutritionally complete food, what advantage is there to eating only potatoes for 3 or 4 weeks (or even for a much longer time), compared to a food plan of eating say potatoes and avocados? I am not trying to criticize the potato mono diet, but to understand it. Note - I have zero interest in losing weight, since I have never had a weight problem.
@Allan Marks, Why don't you experiment on yourself? Rotate different meals every other day, every three days, every week, etc. Your meals can be made up of two or three different items. The meals doesn't have to be mono to be simple.
I love this diet :)
If you ate potatos all day you would look like a potato. are these people doctors or actors?
The way he said "well balanced diet" makes it seem easier than one thing only diet. It's the way he said it, the attitude. In reality it's easier to think of eating one thing all the time than think of many things to eat.... not for or against any potato diet etc. Just sayin...
A 'balance' diet seems to give many a balanced set of health issues (obesity, heart disease, diabetes, fatty liver, kidney failure, cancer and dementia to boot).
when i eat potato i get filled up my chest and nazel. but love potato.
Boiled potatoes have the highest satiety index of all foods (including meat).
Add some rice and some veggies and fruits bro
So its not only potatos....
Interesting
I ve done this in college . Only boiled with salt every day , 2 years. I had 55 kilo and i ve lost 15 kilos. I was a skeleton. It works but its dangerous. I didn t had anything else to eat , poor student s life :))
How many potatoes did you eat per day, and are you male or female
Losing excess weight isn't dangerous.
> dangerous ...
Normally weight looks that way these days.
in 3:50 he means freelee the bananagirl haha :))
I think he's turning into potato
Can you still drink copious amounts of booze?
The fiber in potatoes in already being fermented in your gut so there no need for much.
oh food that grow from the earth... so animal dont grow from earth :D
FAT STORES NUTRIENTS.. diet is dependent upon your body composition... there are glucose pathways and ketone pathways.. catabolic and anabolic states are variable.. too much of any energy process burns outt those processess over time.
Potato diet also produces SCFAs via the gut bacteria.
This show is Dr's, but they hardly know importance of healthy diet. According to them healthy diet contains cheese, beacon, meat, oil and little lettuce and broccoli. Lol
😆😆😆😆😆
Americans here think the whole world uses pounds🙄
Dr. McDougall concluded on basis of just 6 months of study ? This is too short time to notice any nutritional deficiencies which may show up after lets say 10 years of this crazy diet.
+cbrcoder did you miss the part where he talks about the experiment done in 1928. Two people ate only potatoes for a year and they were just fine.
Daniel Rantz They were fine then, but what about long term impact of such diets ??? We don't know what happens if someone follow this for 10 years or 20 years.
+cbrcoder We also do not know what happens when people follow the diet you eat for 20 years.
Siegfried Furtwängler Knappertsbusch
Yes we know. Look around. People not following any diet and doing fine! :)
cbrcoder Sure, so everyone dies of old age at 100? No heart disease, cancer, stroke, diabetes or other illnesses due to poor eating habits? Besides the one year study in Poland is how long he'll do it too. He doesn't want to do it for 10 years.
I don't get it, he doesn't look any different.
Get your eyes checked.
Eat to sustain yourself! Eat what you want and train! These fad crazy diets are not good for the majority of people. Eat according to macros that fit your goals and train!
Kelly Lynn This potato diet has been around since the late 1800s.
I wonder if this fake, as far as im aware the human body needs protein to survive. Potatoes pretty much have none. So im thinking this is just an actor brought on the show to gain audience interest...
Human milk provides 5% of its calories as protein, yet is sufficient during the time a human grows at his fastest rate. A potato has 6%. Beans 20%. Broccoli 33%. Spinach 50%.
@@jaym9846 you are missing the componet of the size of human here, that may be sufficient for a baby that's 15lbs. Not a typical man that weighs 160lbs. Also the small amount of protein that is in milk is of higher quality then any level of protein found in a potato. Potato does not even have all amino acids to be even used for protein...
@@THEOvERSiZEDMeATBALL > milk is of higher quality then any level of protein found in a potato.
That is true. Potato protein is ~80% as effective as the protein in cow's milk (per pg 151 of 'WHO_TRS_935_eng.pdf').
@@THEOvERSiZEDMeATBALL > Potato does not even have all amino acids
That is incorrect. Please check any nutrient data source (ie cronometer) and indicate which essential amino acid is missing.
@@jaym9846 fair enough about the amino acids, but other then that what you mentioned really does not add up.
Don’t waste your time. It doesn’t work.
Evidence please
When some random guy on UA-cam is saying it, it must be true.
@@eni3995 FACTS 👌...wait what🤣
What exactly doesn't work?
