I did the no oils, sugars, salt, animal products, whole foods only for about 5 years and got skinny, but was miserable because I had to eat so many vegetables to feel satisfied. It made me bloated. Then I discovered you. So glad I did. I am practicing intuitive eating and am so much happier. Stayed a vegetarian. Put some weight back on, but am focusing on not over-eating, rather than restricting.
I do not drink soda of any kind. My Grand mother does not understand it and tries (in loving meaning) to get me to drink it, because she thinks it is due to calories, but I really just don’t like the taste and the feeling it leaves on my teeth❤️
This was an informative video. I don't eat meat, but I do eat fish and seafood. I'm mostly plant based. Also, no caffeine for me and the only dairy I eat is plain yogurt. I like Skyr or Icelandic yogurt. Water is pretty much the only thing I drink.
I don’t understand why the west feels only non vegetarian food has B 12. I am from India and here many families are vegetarian including mine. In my family of origin nobody is B 12 deficient. My grandmother’s sister who is 96 now is pure vegetarian and has no B 12 issues. The west has to come out of this misconception.
Thank you for calling out the continuous pushing of expensive supplements and detox products. Health and wellness as a concept has been grossly manipulated for years. I spent a long time consuming diet versions or low fat versions of things because I believed what the fake health and wellness culture was promoting. I finally allowed myself to have full fats and oils maybe 3 years ago. I feel so much more satisfied and I don’t fear foods in the same way.
Superfoods are like this too ...Things like blueberries are healthy of course but very expensive and the benefits of eating them compared to eating cheap fruits like oranges and bananas are very very slight
I really love your advise on avoiding extreme detox drinks or supplements. I agree I find that water and fiber are the best way to cleanse. Super smart advise considering we live a culture obsessed with detoxifying the body in an expensive non practical and often complicated way that companies just make money on peoples vulnerabilities.
Despite 3 years of orthorexia and consulting a PHD nutritionist in Intuitive eating, I still have some foods I don't eat, sometime never liked witch might explained I suck I gaining weight (but not related to fear): 1. Greasy foods likes american style pizza, fries or deep fried chicken. They make me feel like absolute dog shit so I never liked them. I prefer other types of take out like Thai, greek, sushi, pirri piri or in Montréal, good old Rôtisserie. 2. Cauliflower: the textures almost makes me want to vomit compared to brocoli. 3. Sugary drinks: I don't like drinking calories, I prefer eating my occasional threat in solid form like ice cream. That and I hated the tongue scratching feeling these drinks give you. SO I stick to water, blakc coffee and tea (occassionaly wine) 4.Sugar added nut butter: Costco PB and AB exists and are natural and there tastes satisfy my inner squirel. 5. Finally anything really fatty like meals cookes in dummy amounts of butter or lard. The exception is grated pasta dishes my mother makes, but our family never liked fatty foods like fatty meats outside of oily fish. We always leaned towards lean protein all the time, Overall, atleast I am happy to see that I have made progress with reintroducing fear foods without compensating with excessive exercices.
I am a flexitarian and eat almost everything but in moderation. I avoid highly processed foods and fast food, sweetened drinks. I eat low carb. I try to follow the principle - buy local, seasonal, organic, although it is not always possible to do this, at least not in such a way that all three points are fulfilled. Many will be surprised, but I do not eat garlic and fresh onions.
Caffeine has the opposite effect on me as I have ADHD. It calms me. However, I can't have caffeine because I have overactive bladder. I switched to decaf chicory coffee. I LOVE the taste of coffee!
I love this video - and my list is so similar to yours. I really appreciate how you not only explain what you don't eat, but you tell us why. That really helps people to understand what they're eating much better, I think. Then they can reason things out for themselves and make wiser choices when they're listening to their bodies. Thank you, Lucie! ❤️
I dont have any rules, I think... I dont eat processed foods, though, and I cook everything myself. I was a Weight Watchers member for several times and over several years, but in the end their diet program doesnt work on the long run (for me, at least). I am struggeling with my weight, even though I'm only 5-7 kg above my "ideal", so its not unhealthy or anything (I'm 1,73m and 76kg) ... I just like food. I like sweets, and its hard for me to stop when I find something really tasty. My only rule is not to overindulge - it just doesnt really work... Depriving myself of certain foods (like what I did with my keto-testing period for about 7 months) works for a time, yes, but its no long term solution.
I also struggle with sleep, but switched to only one cup in the morning (scientifically proven that it takes 10h for caffeine to leave our bodies) and no effect on sleep now. Magnesium is believed to get better REM sleep - might be worth investigating from nutritional standpoint
for me its • sweets - I do like sweets but not for breakfast, because if I have anything sweet for breakfast it will make be bloated through out the day and I will just feel sluggish and guilty,so I just enjoy them later as a snack with few fruits and small portion of that sweet stuff. mushroom - i just don't like them as meat- I just hate eating any part of the animal such as liver and etc,I only like the beef part of the meat( I don't know how to explain it) chicken - same as meat,I only like the breast parts of them chicken because other parts such gives me ick fast/junk food - they make me so bloated so I tend to not eat them and if we don't go out to a fast food restaurant I just eat a small portion,and the thing is that I can manage to not eat fast food more than 4-5 years
1. Milk or corn- allergic to them 2. Butter cookie/shortbreads/pastries- I HATE them ☺️ 3. Legged animals (sometimes I eat fish) Thats it. I’m kinda picky though so probably forgetting a lot of other things I hate… oh yea like asparagus
Hi Lucie, thank you for another informative and pleasurable video. I wonder if you could tell us which foods we would need to eat to make up for some of the specific nutrients, if any, contained in fish, poultry, and beef.
The only things I don't eat are things I dislike the taste of or am allergic to. If it was just the former, only bitter gourd, frozen mushrooms (I love fresh ones), sugary drinks/cola, bivalves, and red meat would be on the list. But I am allergic to a lot of things, so I have a hard time eating sometimes, especially when I visit my family's home country :( I mostly cook at home as a result.
Im sooo afraid to eat any dairy products due to what certain people say about its negative affects on the body. But then I see you having dairy and I feel so confused
I will not be a vegeterian anytime soon, I do however plan to switch my diet to mainly plant based, and eat meat only twice a week- organic locally suatainted meat & dairy products
Lucie, our bodies have never been exposed to so many toxins, we were not created for this, I am not sure if our organs can keep up. I actually gained some weight (menopause), I was very slim and I changed everything and I could go down, finally I did a cleanse (sirtuins diet, all home made) and after that I returned to my healthish way of eating and without further changes the weight started to go down.
I don’t like eating animals either, they’re our friends, plus it says in the Bible we have everything we need to eat in plants, trees and fruit. Genesis 1:29
It’s ironic that you say that when the western world was built on Judeo-Christian values. Our ideas of freedom, equality and human rights came right from the Bible.
The bible is pretty much balanced, part of the fall is "death"... ( well, not even part.. the consequence was death)! So the bible promotes as a whole biblical dietary laws & is big on being humane in reguard to animals, the treatment & the slaughter. There is nothing wrong according to the scripture with both vegetarian & meat based diets.. these are how we should eat... but in reguard to meat eating we have restrictions as to what we can consume.. For example the pig, both from a humane prospective & a health prospective (killing pigs is quite difficult & not easy, so pigs suffer, but that are also built to service the earth & not us)! Much of what was fruit back in biblical times was not what we have today, or quite literally didn't exist. The scripture tells us to limit our use of sugar... a little bit of honey (this word encompases a broad spectum, not lit, honey).. is good, but a lot is not, we can see this from the Egyptian's diet back then, they tended to have a real sweet tooth! Genesis 1 talks about certain animals... livestock & separate them from wild animals. There is some debate about mushrooms as to if they are classified under kosher or not, in reguards to seed bearing, as they are sporn & is a sporn a seed?! This is where it can become complicated, especially now that today what wasn't classified as fish is now bigger as we can now identify more fish we didn't think have scales, but actually do! Your comment was a bit too narrow on the book of Genesis.. I respect both vegestarism & carnivore (meaning both in a balanced context)! This one of the reasons I actually enjoy listening to Lucie, she balances & doesn't go into the extreme for healthy people, some people with certain health issues (a small group of people may need to), but most don't. My take as close to nature as possible, as close to how Gd intends for us to eat & keep it simple... I see veganism as extreme, I think there are good elements to low carb, but some forms of keto can be just as extreme & unhealthy as veganism (philosophy & overly processed, chemicals)... just my take. because basically it's not my business as to how one chooses eat. I keep biblical dietary laws, but realise I live in the world where bacon & shellfish are eaten, I don't like it from a humane stand point, same with veal & foie gras... but that's life & I'm just grateful to be alive & relatively healthy (would be healthier if I applied more of Lucie's advice 😉& the Word).. I have too much of a love affair with unhealthy fats & sugars... trying to find balance, self control, healing & healthy thoughts processes.in reguard to eating.. balance! I do think Lucie gives that's... started watching her because of my love of nutrition (what I studied when young) & my french nan... she lived well into her 90's & would have live to 100 if it wasn't for her smoking ... she was beautiful, tall (I'm not 😅I'm short)... she walked a lot & she walked with purpose, I slow walk... she cooked fabulous meals & adored mustard & radishes... ate seasonally, my family lived through the war, lived in Egypt & India before finally getting permission to settle in Australia... My aunt lived on the outskirt of Paris after the war until her death! Both grew up as poor peasant sisters in Normandy & life was not easy... oh & my nanna loved a little glass of sherry in the afternoon ☺ & beautiful things. 🌹 When my family get together the focus is on food.. we can start on lunch & end up at dinner ... all that eating while talking... & my comfort unfortunately is in eating!
@@ntildesley2071 The Bible - another name - The Word of God, The Book of the books. The Bible is an amazing book with useful advice, gives hope, heals, changes a person's life. This book changed my life. And what is written about eating from trees was BEFORE first humans fall in sin. Before sin even animals were friendly between each other. It is written in the Bible, that when Jesus will came in the second time, we (christians) will have new home on Earth, the lion and sheep will sit next each other and will be calm. I think people need to eat meat in moderation. Isaiah 11:6-9 UMT [6] The wolf shall feed with the sheep, and the leopard shall slumber with the lamb. The calf, the lion and the bull will live peacefully together, and the cub will take care of them. [7] The cow and the bear will graze peacefully, and their babies will lie down to rest next to each other. A lion will eat hay like sheep. [8] A baby will be able to play over a cobra's hole, a toddler will be able to stick his hand into the nest of a poisonous viper. [9] They will not offend or kill each other in all My Holy Mountain, because the earth will live filled with the knowledge of the Lord, as the water fills the sea.
That's not very true for the B12 I have read that in some plant based food there is and I think that depend on the person if you need to take supplements. Anyway have a good day❤
Whats the benefit in plant based yogurt?? I dont see it. Have you read Dr Joel Fuhrman’s book yet EAT TO LIVE? He’s a doctor having gone to medical school to study food and health. Nutritarian diet, GBOMBS healthiest foods, greens beans onions mushrooms berries seeds and nuts. Take note eating mushrooms cut breast cancer risk in half
You get probiotics. Doctors, MDs, in the US until a few years back didn't take any nutrition courses, zero. I agree with you mushrooms are super healthy and for me delicious.
I don’t think calling gluten free disgusting is very helpful for people who are coeliac watching this. I know you said unless ‘you’re gluten intolerant or whatever’ but the language isn’t that helpful for people who don’t have a choice.
I dont agree w lessening meats, its important to vary your cuts of meat to get all the amino acids, I prefer gelatinous and boney cuts of meat and some organs for the healthier balance of amino acids. Eating straight up lean red meat all the time is not very nutritional

Yes, the effects are different on everyone!
Hi Lucy, great Video 😊i totally admire your way of talking and moreover your healthy perception and relationship to food❤
Thank you so much!💜
I love the taste of coffee. I rarely drink alcohol because I feel better without it.
