You know the best thing about this is that meat, eggs, berries, vegetables, and dairy (which you can buy lactose free its 2022) are so delicious once you’re not a sugar addict
They’re delicious and Ima sugar addict.
You're so right. Once I gave up sugar, plain yogurt with sliced strawberries is amazing!
@@orangenblue6981 plain yoghurt itself is amazing!
But with some berries? Or fruits? That’s delicious. Like fresh cut kiwi? Banana? Apple? That together is fuxking delicious
Actually carrots aren't high in vitamin A, they are high in beta carotene. The conversion rate of beta-carotene to true vitamin A is about 20 to 1. Only animal foods contain true vitamin A (retinol).
The leaves are high in vitamin A but most people think of the roots which are actually mostly starch.. :)
@@derekfrost8991 Vitamin A is only in animal foods. Plants have the vitamin A precursor beta carotene. And the carrot itself has the beta carotene. That's literally why it's orange.
Fuck thats so good knowledge man that some helpful shit obviously gonna verify that this is true somewhere else but BIG IF TRUE!
@@claybutler Not exactly. your body alters the rate of beta carotene conversion to Vitamin A based on your Vitamin A levels. Which is generally a good thing because deficient people will get more and Vitamin A toxicity is virtually impossible from plant foods.
Vitamin A toxicity is very possible from retinol-derived sources (animal organs)
P.S. Not vegan/vegetarian. I think meat is healthy but Beta-Carotene demonization’s gotta stop
@@DoUEvenLift I'm not demonizing beta carotene, I'm just pointing out that beta carotene is not retinol. And there are no plant sources of retinol. I get in these discussions with vegans all the time. They think B12 is found plentiful and their diet. They can't distinguish between ALA, DHA and EPA. Most vegans think that their diet is high in DHA and EPA, because those are forms of Omega-3 and they can't really distinguish between the different forms. Many vegans think eating an egg is the same as smoking five cigarettes. That broccoli is higher in protein than steak. It's like a game of whack-a-mole.
This particular person was insisting that the green stalks of the carrot has all the vitamin A. And I couldn't apparently convince them they were wrong.
Awesome convo, lots of great insights!
Wow surprising. These guys are on it with proper human nutrition. Y’all actually earned my sub on this one.
Question...how do you know that "THESE" guys are speaking the truth?
Someone else will disagree...and I might agree with the second guy.
Who decides what's "Proper Human Nutrition?" Where's the Truth???
1 Beef Liver
(A,Bs,E,K2,Zinc,Sel,Cop,Phos,Mang,Iron
2 Kiwi
(C)
3 Salmon
(A,Bs,D,Cal,Pot,O3)
4 Avocado
(E,K1,Pot,Mag)
5 Dairy
(K2,Cal,Iod,Phos)
Lamb is incredibly underrated, its nutritionally very similar to steak, tastes better, and is almost always grass fed
except spring lamb
Maybe I’m an outlier, I don’t like lamb.
I have tried many Turkish dishes and it is just not for me.
I eat basically all meat, including liver.
Just not lamb.
@@C0d0ps you're not alone. Can't stand lamb. Wife loves it say i cook it the best she's ever had but i personally hate it.
@@charlieprince8671
Thank you for sharing.
My mom loved lamb as well.
I love lamb but it is a little pricey.
Oats, eggs, berries, meat, fish, if I were allowed a sixth, I’d go for sweet potato or quinoa. Speaking of veg, it would be broccoli all day long.
quinoa is fire
Love Broccoli!
Brazil nuts and liver are both very tasty and nutrient rich.
I love that y’all emphasized rotating foods! I think that’s the most important takeaway message.
I don’t think that lumping organ meats together with muscle meat. Muscle meats are great protein sources and are calorically dense, but they come no where close in nutrient density to organ meats.
Same goes for potatoes. They are calorie dense, and have a decent amount of potassium a little bit of B vitamins, but aside from that they do not have a lot of nutrition.
My list would be:
1. Organ Meats
2. Sardines, Mackeral, & Anchovies
3. Shellfish
4. Eggs
5. Leafy Greens & Cruciferous Veg
6. Mushrooms
7. Seaweed & Algea
8. Seeds
9. Legumes
10. Lacto-Fermented Vegetables
The trick to to combine these foods with muscle meat, fats, and starches to get enough calories; enough fiber to be full; and polyphenol rich foods like extra virgin olive oil, cacao, dark berries, herbs, & spices to get keep inflammation and cancer at bay.
Yeah any time you're making a stir fry, or a burger, or just seasoned chicken it's twice as good with thigh instead of breast.
The only exception I'd say is if the sauce is already very rich or creamy. For example a chicken korma or chicken tikka massala is much nicer with good quality, well cooked chicken breast. With chicken thigh it's a bit much.
Also the thing at the end about fishsticks was hilarious.
Chicken breast is usually higher protein and less fat.
That is why the taste can be bland without good spices like cayenne, rosemary, salt, garlic powder.
@@C0d0ps yeah if I'm cutting I'll go for breast but the extra nutrition + calories you get from a thigh is much nicer.
I love these guys
Red meat, fish, eggs, white rice and Berries.
If I could pick 5 that would be it. But I usually add chicken, oats and honey.
Raw honey is insanely nutrient dense.
I eat fermented rice every morning. It's what the farmers in my region have eaten for centuries. Whenever the farmboy strength meme plays out here, the topic goes to fermented rice and millets.
Three words, Chicken, Broccoli and Rice.
I would add a Avocado and berries.
Otherwise known as "steroids" in Hollywood
Beef has more than chicken.
@@crisbowman I would say fish has more than beef
@@MATERNATION92x Value wise beef contains more nutrients, and is safer to eat raw.
Edit: Well, nutrients that You would want more of. You be surprised how few vitamins you actually need to thrive. Fat and protein though, not as much.
Whole milk!!! And agreed with the guys on chicken thighs being way better than breasts
In my personal opinion, the foods that are most nutrient dense are the ones that are used to create a new life. Those include eggs, milk, nuts, beans, and fruits.
You forgot to include liver, heart and kidney.
You basically just put all the high fat foods in one list.
There are many more nutrient dense foods that don’t have high fat.
I love having pears for breakfast and beans for lunch in chili con carne.
This is one of my favorite videos 😂
Meat, eggs, avocado, oatmeal, polenta (coarse groud cornmeal)
Nose to Tail Meat, Oysters, Raw Dairy, Eggs, Honey, & All Fruit
Mmmm LOVE food!
Forgetting the next best thing to red meat: connective tissues from broth.
Broccoli, salmon, sardines, eggs, dark chocolate
+( avocado, liver and feta too)
Seamoss and bladderwrack!!!! These 2 together provide all the minerals your body needs
Pizza's gotta be up there right?! Throw some spinach on there maybe?!
Pizza with bizon, spinach, broccoli, chicken en cheese
Pizza is healthy, you just have to use the right ingredients
🤮🤮🤢
@@flipmanonline I hear you can be sent to prison if you put broccoli on pizza
Best episode evaaa
Amen ...liver is our favorite.
Testicle and pollen are great too
For me: oats, bananas, rice, eggs, chicken and some veggies, swapping cottage cheese and fish for chicken on some days.
That sounds like a horrible diet.
@@Seasonednuts might sound horrible to you, tastes and works fine for me
@@dhritirajkalita414 all the power to you then gl.
You can do better with 80% of those things out of your diet
@@king-nick2023 Diets are subjective.
What about beans/legumes? I think they're an incomplete protein unless you combine them with a whole grain? I've also read/heard that the bioavailability of plant protein is lower than animal protein? I love listening about this stuff.
I'd say they're high nutrient, regardless of the eaa profile.
Trash. You have to soak them first
There full of anti nutrients & impossible to digest
Beans and legumes are very healthy combined with high protein foods like chicken, liver or tofu.
I am not a vegetarian, I do like my vegetables and fruits though.
@@binary 2/3 brn rice 1/3 lentils in a rice cooker is quicker than soaking.
Can we point out that nutrient dense is a need for those attempting to build a great deal of muscle, so, most people in the audience. But that is not that same thing as healthiest, which of course depends on your activity level and overall health needs.
No we can't because muscle and health cannot be separated. Strength is never a weakness. Weakness is never a strength.
@@frankauger6902, preach.
Found the vegan
@@tamimhusain3376 lol, nope. just a well fed 41 year old man with a balanced diet. eat your veggies youngster.
@@frankauger6902 If not well-balanced it actually can, at least in terms of long-livety, and Andrew is speaking facts here, besides, you need to consider what meat or eggs or fish quality can you get as these are much harder to find and much more expensive if hq. If you only eat veggies and nuts, oats, seeds, some fruits and maybe a fish sometimes you'll actually be able to achieve the most in terms of endurance and health. So your point of view is very modern-society, city-living and gain muscle oriented in my opinion rather than health, balance and brain funcioning focused. Peace!
I had to watch Justin saying "yummy... They're breaded and delicious" twice because it was so funny!
Sprouts 🌱 for sure
I love that this is becoming more understood. Plants are poor for bioavailable nutrients. I'd add that greens such if you're like me and can't take the oxalates. I used to eat spinach salads daily and it messed me up. I got gout and I'm still detoxing from that crap. I roll my eyes at all the greens supplements out there. It's poison to me!
The dairy of the Mongols wasn't from factory farms. SMH
Yours doesn’t have to be either
Meat, eggs, dairy, beans. After that it's tough. Nuts, berries and potatoes all could be top 5.
Beans are so high in phytic acid they will essentially make you acutely deficient in zinc, iron, magnesium and some B vitamins so naaa
Beef, eggs, oats, berries, milk
Top 5 for me: quinoa, black beans, fish, eggs, steak and if I could add a 6th it would be oats/nuts
Yes! How could they leave beans and nuts out
Steak, eggs and AVOCADO every day
Steak, Sardines, Eggs, Hemp Seed Hearts, pumpkin seeds, nuts, goat cheese, sprouts, berries
I love cheese but became lactose intolerant in my mid-20s. lol
Same brother
Hard cheeses don't contain lactose. If they do it's trace. If you still react then it will be the dairy protein.
Feel your pain! in my personal opinion, everyone is Lactose intolerant, just depends how intolerant each persons body is.
Wow, I’d be interested to hear what Brain supplements you guys like
Chicken thighs are my staple. Loooove those damn things.
I would probably go Chicken Steak Salmon, Peanut Butter and Sweet Potato. And whole milk would be my sixth.
Peanut butter is more fats than protein, so it’s only good if you are bulking.
I prefer liver for being healthy.
@@C0d0ps
Peanut butter nutrition facts
Calories: 190.
Fat: 16g.
Sodium: 136mg.
Carbohydrates: 8g.
Fiber: 2g.
Sugars: 3g.
Protein: 8g.
Most people are looking to bulk.
8g per serving of deliciousness is a bulk God My guy.
Spinach or Broccoli for vegetables and any berries for fruit.... chicken over red meat for me
Spinach and broccoli are trash for cows
@@binary and???
@@freedomfighter5335 vegetables are overrated.
I eat 1 cup of egg whites with 2 whole eggs mixed in. 5-6 eggs is too many calories with a fiber wrap and some cheese. The egg whites retain the protein and lower the calories. I eat ref meat 1/3 of the time and chicken breast the other 2/3.
Frozen vegetables are already broken down. Fresh vegetables are usually weeks old from shipping and aren’t picked while ripest and most nutrient dense.
Frozen vegetables aren’t broken down
Frozen vegetables have a lot of nutrients because, they are not broken down and old.
God didnt make any mistakes. He put certain meats here for us to eat because of the nutrient value. I told my doctor I was thinking about cutting out meat entirely and he said if I did I would have to start taking a lose dose daily vitamin B12 supplement and if I cut out all dairy I would need a daily vitamin D3 supplement. No way! Never mind I’ll stick to eating meat just in moderation.
avocado is the best food evah!
Red meat
Egg
Fish
Dairy products
Berries
Why did my idiot brain read that thumbnail and think he was gonna review foods he bought at staples. And I was like oh shit I didn't even know staples has food like I'd be down to watch. Very disappointed to find it is not in fact top five foods at staples. Smh
The reason I wouldn't advocate for chicken thighs over breast is because the fat is going to be a high percentage omega 6 PUFA. This is because their diet is likely grains (corn / soy).
Pasture raised chicken would be a better option here because they at least have some option to forage for grasses and insects.
Eggs have all the amino acids, fats, and essential vitamins needed to create a healthy cell.
Glad I eat all of these😋. Blueberries, tuna, ground beef, sweet potato, eggs, broccoli, nuts, rice.
I personally wouldnt eat a ton of tuna, its a big predator fish and therefore accumulates alot of mercury during their lifsespan. :)
@@aBlockOfDirt skipjack tuna is often much lower in mercury, and similar price
One word, pistachios!! Complete protein and many other benefits!
Dried fruits bro, nuts
Fish sticks 🤣🤣 ....I'm with Justin on the cheese tho if can tolerate it
I love chicken thighs but maaaan, rub a nice, thinly cut chicken breast with oil, season it and air fry…the taste is amazing. Not dry!
Legumes, dark leafy greens, and sweet potatoes. You can literally live on an all-potato diet.
Facts
Can live, yes, but live optimally...?
youve labelled foods with the highest antinutrients and lowest bioavailabiliy lol
@@conorrclark8274 dafuq are anti nutrients
@@JeffPenaify toxins. its how plants defend themselves considering they cant run away. oxalates, phytic acid, lectins... all anti nutrients in most vegetables and plants. typically they bind to minerals and inhibit absorption. there is some incredibly strong evidence linking oxalated to kidney stones, thats why 'superfoods' like spinach really holds little net benefit. the research is out there so dont take my word for it
To get Vitamin K1 + Vitamin C + Lutein and zeaxanthin + beta carotene you would need Dark Leafy Greens like Kale/Spinach, it's hard to get these from animal foods.
Lutein and zeaxanthine are in eggs. Salmon has astaxanthin, which is a carotenoid similar to beta carotene. Animal foods have plenty.
@@mosesking2923 Lutein and zeaxanthin are very low in eggs. Salmon has astaxanthin in lower dosages.
The bioavailability of vit c in spinach and kale is crap just eat an orange or drink some fresh orange juice
@@DanfromOz How do you know and where can i find it? (The information that is )
K1 and C is in Fruit in high amounts.
For plants they should've mentioned legumes.
Meat, Fish, Eggs, Oats, Dairy. Also Fruits, Potatoes.
Spinach, quinoa, hemp seeds, avocado's, bananas
Eggs, Salmon, Greek Yogurt, Potatoes, Berries/Veggies
Garlic, olive oil, raw goat milk, durian
5th:- seeds
avocado should be in top 5.

👍
Fish sticks and ketchup 😋 😆
Ketchup still retains the lycopene from tomatoes and fish sticks still have protein. Don't know how much of each is still left in those. But it's there lol.
Steak
Eggs
Avocados
Rice
Beans
Basically taco bell
Very good video, one important issue that was left out is that in order to benefit from all the nutrients that meat provides, it needs to be grass fed and finished beef, the eggs have to be pasture raised where chicken roam freely outside eating grass and insects and not farmed raised or organic which totally eliminates the properties from food.
Explain how it “eliminates the properties the food”?
Ok...
Hemp seeds, liver, raw milk all day
Bambi is the best red meat...the deer not the stripper.
I do like me some venison, but kangaroo is my number one, then venison number two 😊 I'm also from Australia... Not sure if you can get kangaroo elsewhere.
Can anyone explain why “Vegetables are not considered nutrient dense”
2:39
Because they aren't the amount of vegetables you have to eat to get the same amount of nutrients with animal products is insane. Most mammals that are herbivores eat constantly to fuel their bodies
I can see a real nutritionist going off on these knuckleheads. The only thing that made any sense at all was the organ meat reference.
+1
These guys know what they are talking about
Steak, spinach and rice fer sher
Bro said cheese 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
This is so me🍕
Potato beans milk
Meat, honey, fruit, eggs, dairy. That's all you need. Maybe add rice or bread and nuts but if I eat these I'll be perfectly fine.
You have no idea what you are doing and you are finding too much information out there? Ok, forget everything else and make your diet revolve around these:
- red meat
- beef liver
- eggs
- rice
- oranges
This is a very solid, gut-friendly (for most people) and nutritious diet. This diet will take you very, very, very far. Can't afford that much red meat? Swap it for chicken every now and then. Try throwing some raw milk into the diet too if you have access to that
Consistency on this diet will solve acne, improve skin, create muscle and make you healthier overall.
Couldn't agree more buddy. I was in a strict Carnivore Diet but as a Judoka, found that my body really likes high quality carbs.
Now I eat all types of meat (red meat, fish, chicken), eggs, organ smoothies, honey, rice and sometimes fruit.
Also, I regularly eat some vegetables in the form of mexican salsa to make my meals taste better.
As an engineering student, I just can't work as hard without coffee, so I drink it everyday (1-2 cups a day).
Swap oranges for kiwis, in terms of nutrients, but oranges are great too of course.

Doesn’t consumption of animal meats increase the likelihood of getting cancer??
Not necessarily. It's usually processed meats that do.
The studies could be picking up on lifestyle markers so it not likely that the red meat it's self causes cancer but other lifestyle choices that on average come along with the choice to eat red meat.
Yes.
The Vegan Cult wants us to believe it does, but there are many contradictory studies. Vegan cultists like to mention a mouse study where one group was given low protein diet and the other group high protein, animal based protein. The study DOES conclude that the high protein group has a higher incidence of cancer! Absolutely no refuting that....and if you want to be a Vegan, for whatever reason, there is your confirmation bias....stop reading now, Vegans! But for those objective thinkers yearning for truth....wait...there's more! The high protein mice LIVED LONGER than the low protein mice.....AND...the cancers occurred almost entirely at ages AFTER the vegan mice had already died. And...there were vegan mice with cancer, just lower rate. So...not conclusive...but convinving if you leave out some details. THIS is one of many reasons you cannot simply believe scientists.
You can find the detail by searching "dissenting opinion of Forks Over Knives movie." There was a guy who broke down several of the studies used in the movie and by other Vegan Cult Propagandists.
prolly just grocery store meat prolly not a fresh kill in the wild.
Locusts and honey
While these foods can be nutrient dense, the quality of them that most people have access to is not going to be great. So when you say things like steak, fish, eggs, dairy, what you find at your local super market is going to get you sick in the long run. If you want to talk about eggs and steak from your local farm then yeah you could consider these "healthy". (Yes I would say the same for most veggies). Also have to factor in that these guys are probably in the gym multiple times a week. The average person is not doing that. So I would say to be careful anyone equating nutrient dense foods to meaning they're healthy. Completely different things.
Also on the topic of vegetables, you say they're not nutrient dense, but I would say they're not calorically dense. You can get most if not all your daily nutrients from plant foods, but if you're trying to bulk up you need to eat more.
Plants aren't nutrient dense, you can literally Google it
Quinoa
You guys should look at Lupin beans. A common Mediterranean snack. Packed in proteins. Often overlooked in the West.
Dairy has too many hormones nowadays. That’s why ppl have many issues with it
Depends on genetics is the correct answer
Mothers milk 🤔
steak, potatoes, oatmeal, yogurt, chicken, beer..........
Oh but Eggs you can’t wrong got a lot of vitamins and amino acids
oysters folks
Oatmeal
Garbage
Tell these guys not to watch Seaspiracy. Fish is awesome other than the heavy metals and plastics.
i stopped eating fish bc of that documentary
@@CutTheKam 100% me too and really love fish and seafood not only for its nutritional value but it's taste. I kind of knew that it was terrible for species and biodiversity, so always tried to eat sustainable species until that documentary made me realise its all basically full of poison
Not for the vegans lol
The plant food would be cabbage
Avocado?
Maybe include a variety of nuts? Almonds, peanuts, walnuts etc
Nah, not as beneficial.
The Irish lived on milk and potatoes
Interesting to see this considering a lot if nfl players are vegan now
Yea and start getting hurt more and recovering much slower
No they aren't lol
@@binary you’d be surprised, there are 15 dudes on the titans alone who went vegan in the past couple years
@@maraudingmamut6001 ah, no wonder why they fell off this year. Bill Gates approves tho lol.
