Clarification re: Nutritionist vs Dietitian. In the video I described the differences between a dietitian and a nutritionist, with one distinction being that nutritionists are unregulated and that “anyone can be a nutritionist”. However, this statement applies predominately to CANADIAN LAW, and may not be applicable elsewhere. Most provinces in Canada (where I live and where I answer to a regulatory body) do not have provincially regulated nutritionists, besides Alberta. In Alberta, nutritionist is ALSO regulated so no one, except for a dietitian, can call themselves this. In the US, it's my understanding that the term "registered dietitian nutritionist" is now a regulated term for dietitians to use, as a way to cover more territory in their title (since dietitians are nutritionists). I also understand that in some states there may be specific licensure for nutritionists to meet to use that title (even if they're not a RD). I can't speak to every country's laws on dietitians as terminology around regulated health professionals are different from country to country. So before seeking nutrition advice from a nutritionist, wherever you are in the world, be sure to familiarize yourself with the laws governing regulated health professionals in your region to be sure that you are working with a licensed nutrition professional.
Hi everyone, welcome to Abbey's Kitchen! In todays episode of What I Eat In A Day UA-camr reviews, I will be reviewing NUTRITIONIST Derek Simnett of Simnett Nutrition. A reminder that everything in this video is for entertainment purposes only and you should always seek the advice of a health care provider for your unique case.
So, lets meet Derek!

Contribution By:
Katey Davidson, MScFN, RD
Thanks for the feature Abbey! I appreciate the honest and thoughtful review of my eating. Just as a quick note, in many of my videos I do mention that I supplement with vitamin d3 (lichen sourced) and b12 and that most people (vegan or not) should consider supplementing with these complimented by regular blood testing. I'll make an effort to mention it more as it is very important. I'm glad you enjoy my positive style.
Simnett Nutrition you’re amazing! ❤️
Love you Derek!!! Keep up the good work and promoting amazing vegan food and the message!!!
❤️
DEREEEEEEK! You're the best 😁👍
Yes! Thanks Love! You are a great resource for the plant based community !!
Derek does often mention his vitamins d and b he takes.
Courtney Chastain amazing!
Came here from Derek's channel, thanks for showing him some love! He definitely doesn't demonize oil, just prefers to get his calories from whole foods that will generally be more nutrient dense. One tablespoon of olive oil has the same number of calories as an entire medium-sized sweet potato - I'd rather have the sweet potato than the oil!
Kellan James - Real Estate Investing for Cashflow that’s fair! And I would too! But like I said, it doesn’t need to be all or nothing
@@AbbeysKitchen Definitely, agreed! Derek eats oil when he goes out for dinner at restaurants, and in certain processed foods that come with it like Gardein "meats" or Daiya cheese, but more as a treat and less as a staple of the diet. Sneaky calories is the main purpose of avoiding it :)
She does point out that COLD-PRESSED EXTRA VIRGIN olive oil is a good oil to have, I study nutrition and I believe she is right. It does have nutrients as she says, and also ANTIOXIDANTS. She mentions that different fats have different LIPID PROFILES. This oil has a profile of omega-9 fat which increases the "good" HDL cholesterol and reduces the "bad" LDL cholesterol levels. A study called "PREDIMED" has shown extra virgin olive oil in the mediterranean diet to prevent cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events, diabetes type 2 and some types of cancer (like breast cancer).
Of course there are "worse" oils out there, very high in inflammatory omega-6, that should be avoided, but extra virgin olive oil is not one of them.
While i do not eat like he does, i do enjoy his personality and workouts.
😊
He’s so positive, I love his videos!
Wanted to say the same thing. He seems so kind and upbeat. I try to eat mostly plant-based with a wide variety of vegetables and fruits, but I certainly don’t reach his level. Regardless, he and his girlfriend are a lot of fun to watch, and the area of the world they live in is absolutely gorgeous. They spend a lot of time outdoors and I really enjoy watching their videos.
Derek regularly mentions the fact that he supplements B12 and vitamin D. He also eats a wide variety of fats, including nuts, seeds and avocados.
Chloë D yes!
also counting macros is broscience from 2010, it's all whole plant foods now as the science consistently shows is the most important factor in a diet.
Those aren't good sources of fat.
@@AliceRoche-ii2ke they are best sources of fat. Get an education ffs
@@AliceRoche-ii2ke no.
LOVE that you’re “reviewing” a male influencer. Please do more of these.
Kathryn Vivier I have two more this month
@@AbbeysKitchen please be Healthy Crazy Cool, _please be Healthy Crazy Cool, _*_please be Healthy Crazy Cool_*
Right? There's a LOT of the reverse going on. P>S I love Simnett Nutrition, this is not a thing about Derek. He's the best.
These videos are so needed in the fitness health community to bring everything into perspective. UGH I love these videos. By far my favorite series on this channel. So fun and informative.
So glad it is helpful!
Yeah, Abbey should definitely do more of these. They're very entertaining and informative.
I love Derrick! He has the best recipes and sauces. He is one of my favorite channels to watch always. Such a happy guy and just enjoys sharing that positivity with others
❤️❤️
Derek has helped me so much with my transition to a vegan diet. I use a lot of his recipes. Plus he's easy on the eyes just saying 😉 😂
Hahaha he is tho
Amen to that sister. Plus his recipes are easy to follow. I've used a couple too
Oh god ur so pretty mam
He’s also a steroid user who lies about his steroid use
@@Readyteddygo Based on what data? How can you support this claim?
Abbey comin’ in hot with the quarantine content we need! 🙋🏼♂️
❤️❤️
2:15 I just want to mention that nutritionist is a regulated term in some places! Within Canada, it's regulated in Quebec, Alberta, New Brunswick and Nova Scotia. Of course, still check their credentials like Abbey said, but it's just worth knowing whether or not they are regulated where you live if you plan to work with them :)
😊
Not in the US.. anyone can call themselves a “nutritionist” literally anyone 😒
Yes! I’m from Quebec, my mom is a registered dietitian, but since we speak French she graduated with a masters in « nutrition »
So I’ll clarify this in more detail in my description today but yes in some provinces dietitians can also use nutritionists and others can’t, but they’re still RDs.
I really enjoy these positive videos just as much as the more “critical” ones. It’s always helpful to show what you should do, and not just what not to do. Also... LOVE your top. Is it maternity? I’d love to know where it’s from.
jmonta21 yes it is! Seraphine! But can totally rock non preggers
It's so nice to see someone doing a vegan lifestyle this way. It's too fun and easy to bash other people's diets and pick apart their choices. Perfection in diet is not a thing, but some people really have their lifestyle dialed in, and it's inspiring. I'm sure you have a huge list of people to review, but I will continue asking for JessBeautician, not only are her videos very calming and "aesthetic", but I feel like her nutrition is pretty good as well.
On the list!
Yesss! Jess has some of the only 'What I Eat in A Day' videos I'll watch!
One of the things I like best about hers, on top of making wholly different recipes to begin with, is that she will even suggest or plan what to do with the other half of that can of tomatoes or whatever. Her accent is adorable too.
Everything he ate looks amazing. I could never eat that much in a single day, but I'm also not a body builder.
😊
Okay but you are glowing here
❤️
So happy to see you reviewing Derek, he’s one of my favorites. He’s just so creative and does such cool things with vegan recipes. I’m not vegan myself, but I have gone much more plant-based lately (just to be healthier) and he’s really inspirational and positive like you! ❤️
❤️❤️
I’d love for you to do a lifestyle Influencer like Kalyn Nicholson or Jenn Im. I like it when you tackle channels that aren’t entirely focused around food, since their “what I eat in a day” videos tend to be more casual and light-hearted. Thank you for providing us with content during this time! 💖
I'll have a look!
Love Kalyn Nicholson too 😀 !!
I’m in quarantine. I have to make my own damn tacos- I feel that on an emotional level hahaha
Yum!
Allison Wright This was so funny, it’s one of the reasons I ❤️ Abbey. 🙂
Ooh me too!
Me too!!! 😂😂😂
I havent been out for days, because I have shown symptoms of infection, and I'm climbing the walls right now 😂 😂
As a Mexican, it amaze me that you need to waste a lot of time making "tacos". The only thing you need to make tacos is tortilla. LOL
cutting out oil healed a health problem that I had for years that I went to the doctor over a dozen times about. It was destroying my life and my doctor did not care at all and just prescribed the same pills over and over again in higher doses and they never helped at all! I was also having constant stomach pain and was put on the no FODMAP diet which I found very difficult to follow, and no oil also helped immensely with that.
I understand it comes off as concerning and too restrictive but it has been so helpful for me.
Graeme Halbert glad it helps
I think you should change your regular physician. 👨⚕️👩⚕️ It sounds like an unhealthy patient-doctor dynamic to me. Your doctor should be the one to aid you with your ailments, not add more problems... 😮🤕
Jaded Kate i don‘t have much Choice, the waiting lists are very lengthy. I have been to walk in clinics to avoid seeing her and the doctors there were often not much better. At this point I am so used to doctors not proving any actual help I don‘t expect solutions and rely on my own research as well as trying to see expensive specialists on my own. Of course a lot of them only see patients based on referrals, which my doctor refuses to give me.
@@graemehalbert7551 that sounds like a struggle 😕 you shouldn't be losing your hope in healthcare like this... Just keep looking for options and alternatives, I hope you find a better physician (MD or DO) to help you.
2 things I noticed...While this was a very positive review of a vegan diet, there was an obsession with where Derek gets protein and Derek's choice not to use oil. I found this very frustrating because from someone who speaks for quite a bit about how dieticians are regulated and knowledgeable re: food this shows a lack of understanding regarding the actual needs of the body and the effect unnecessary processed foods like oil can have on it.
There are very good reasons why we A) don't need to be obsessed about protein and B) should avoid oils.
Worrying about getting enough protein is really a fool's game because unless you're not eating enough calories you will get enough protein. Recent science says only 5% of our calories need to come from protein. This is an easily achievable goal when consuming sufficient calories. If you're cutting calories for weight loss or in a situation where food is scares, then yes, focusing on protein has benefits. However, Derek was just eating his regular diet presumably to maintain his weight and physique, he got 12% of his calories from protein, more than enough. Consequently, the constant refrain of "good protein sources" just showed me that she is one of the majority of people who still fall under the spell of the protein mythos built up between the 1800s and the 1950s. nutritionfacts.org/audio/how-much-is-enough-protein/
Also advocating oil as a health food or even a neutral option is not really accurate and could even be considered irresponsible. There is quite a bit of evidence that shows that not only is oil a source of empty calories but that there is an effect on endothelial function and inflammation from any oil... If you want to use oil that's fine, but it's not a health food and shouldn't be considered part of a healthy diet. nutritionfacts.org/topics/oils/
Note: I cited Nutrition Facts here because it is a nonprofit organization which condenses medical and scientific literature into videos and articles that the average person can understand. All the claims on Nutrition Facts are backed up by sources and cited on the site.
While what you say is true, bodybuilders benefit from a higher consumption of protein. This is to optimize muscle building, not health. There are currently many studies that suggest that increased consumption of protein is carcinogenic, due to the spike of IGF-1 levels (possibly caused by BCAAs or leucine alone). Science apart, it kinda makes sense that being overly anabolic can be carcinogenic as it promotes elevated tissue synthesis.
Beetroot crystals .?? 😂 ....The things I learn every day
😊
We have beetroot powder. My kids love beets so we use it in smoothies, add to soups, and sometimes bake with it because it turns it purple. Haha.
I used to make a bowl for my horses and a small bowl for me lol
I’m guessing he uses it to supplement/improve his workout because of beet’s nitrate, which helps open up blood vessels and increase blood flow
Jinx Lombard it's like sugar crystals (beets are made up of starch)
I love how excited you get when you see someone eating a balanced meal hahaha it makes me smile!
😊
Maybe it's just a testament to how lazy I am, but I don't find smoothies for breakfast convenient at all. The blender is loud and wakes up my roommates and then I have to clean my blender. I hate cleaning my blender so much.
6895Anna right?! Same!! I hate getting it out
@@AbbeysKitchen Thank you! I feel so validated! To me the easiest breakfast is peanut butter and banana sandwich.
@6895Anna
It depends on how you define "lazy"! While my "lazy" is using a blender (and drinking from the same vessel) so that I don't have to wash a bowl/spoon (or, gods forbid, a frying pan!?) yours is the blissful avoidance of an early morning blender cacophony and unnecessary cabinet rummaging.
It's like when my PT is impressed that I choose the "hard" option (EG heavier weights, fewer reps) over the "easy" option (IE lighter weight, So. Many. Reps.) - whereas all I'm thinking about is getting the damn thing over and done with as fast as possible! 😂
@@elfvampire 😂 I couldn't agree more
I feel like the mug cake and smoothie people need to get together and explain to us how they're convenient.
Mug cake - get out everything like you're baking a regular cake, but use less of it! You're still dirtying spoons and measuring cups, but it's being cooked in a mug! Wow! You get to microwave it, which doesn't taste as good, but takes less time! So, a win! Then put back all your baking supplies and you're ready to enjoy your subpar cake.
Smoothie - get out everything you have in the fridge and pantry and then blend the shit out of it! It's so fast! The blending part. Takes two hours to put all your food back and three hours to deconstruct your blender for cleaning, but then you're all set to enjoy your convenient breakfast.
Would love to see her review one of the healthy crazy cool what I eat in a day!!! I feel like I watch all her videos all the time
I don't think healthy crazy cool would be thrilled to be honest
Amu Jane TV why ?
Coming at the end of April!
@@gorgetteadelaide7058 because he already addressed this 5 months ago go and watch his video
Yay I am so excited Abbey!
I recently started watching Derek's videos, love his positive energy!
❤️
i've been binging your videos for the past 48 hours. literally video after video after video, even putting one on when i'm going to sleep because i just find it relaxing to listen to you talk. THANK YOU
So glad it is helpful!
Fasted early morning cardio is my jam! I feel so good after 😅
Glad that works for you!
Ive tried it a few times, doesnt work for me. I get pooped out sooner. So I eat first.
Saammee
Yay! I recently saw a comment requesting you to review men or curvy ladies’ food instead of the white girl instagrammers and I’m so glad to see this! Some very nice variety and I’m excited to see more diverse content! Thanks for listening to your subscribers and putting out such excellent content!
Paige of course
I love the intentionality behind each of your videos! I appreciate the time and research you put into everything you do! It definitely makes me want to be more articulate and intentional in my own 😊💛 thanks for doing what you do!
❤️❤️
I'd love to see a review on a bodybuilding/bikini preps diet! Mostly for the comedic purposes of your reactions because of how strict and all the crazy weird replacement foods competitors come up with. Also would be educational and interesting to see the unhealthy mental/nutrituonal parts of it.
*Also this isn't me bashing competitors, I am one and if I had a UA-cam channel to review I'd volunteer my own, because I'm aware that my own approach isn't very healthy! I myself would love to see a dietitians take on it all. Love to see a "FDOE 3 weeks out" review.
I actually have a video coming out about competition prep
Luckily my Mexican grandmother is staying with us and she makes us tacos anytime we want them with homemade corn and flour tortillas!!!
Yum!
That sounds heavenly!!!
Nathan Valdez Not jealous at all ...
So jealous right now. Lol. Grandma is the best.
Don't quite understand the emphasis on oil in every review video. I personally don't use it because I'd rather eat bigger meals and whole fats that have a taste. Feel like oil is a bit of a waste and not necessary to a healthy diet.
I’ll be talking about all of that in detail in my upcoming video on no oil
Same here. Also, I’d rather not cook with oils when I’m at home. Then when I go out to eat I don’t mind eating something delicious that’s been cooking with oil.
It’s just easy for me that way but 🤷♀️
Eleri Angharad oh girl. Oil HAS a taste. Fresh olive oil adds SO much flavor to a dish when done properly
@@susannam.9300 I don't eat low fat, just would rather eat whole foods like nuts, avocado, nut butters etc than cook using oil. I don't see why it matters as long as you're getting enough good fats to be healthy. I'd personally rather have rice, beans and avocado as a meal than cook the beans in oil and then not have the avo. Seems more satisfying and tasty to me than what feels like wasted calories from the oil. I love sauteed broccoli too and would rather top with a vegan butter or cheese than cook it in oil, so I can enjoy the flavours of the fats I'm eating. That said the only oil I do use occasionally is sesame oil as it has an amazing flavour and justifies the calories.
Maybe I haven't experienced the whole 'oil is bad' culture, just seemed like an unnecessary amount of emphasis on oil, on this channel, when it isn't essential for a healthy diet and most people get plenty of it anyway.
@@malorieann1150 Fresh olive oil yes, delicious with bread and balsamic. but it's wasted in cooking and makes food taste overly greasy and not as fresh in my opinion.
I would love to see her reviewing Amberlynn Reid on her ‘diet’ cause I know that abbey would give a non biased opinion and that would offer clarity
Riya Pratap I’ll take a look
Will Pringle True 😂
I just feel like there's way too many people in Amberlyns comments already picking her apart every single video. She's heard everything that is under the sun what she should do. Not sure if a review would be beneficial... Or help anyone :(
orsikocs Honestly no hate for her. I actually feel for her and it’s hard to be put under that light but here I feel like abbey being dietician can give her clarity on a few things and prolly help some people along the way as well. If it’ll help her get better then wouldn’t this be beneficial ?
@@riyapratap3716 yeah, i see what you mean.
I also wish the best for Amberlyn and for her to recover.
I love Derek’s videos he’s just such a positive guy, and his recipes are absolutely amazing and have given me really good ideas for meals! ❤️
😊
RD here - big gratitude for this intro Abbey! My heart is full
❤️❤️
I heavily appreciate youre honesty. And the fact that you made a video to bring someone up. And not a bias hatred. Spread love. I appreciate you
I don’t know how the heck anyone exercises “fasted”. I’ve tried it, I was so pale and shaky and woozy by the end. No thank you. I’ll fuel with my sprouted grain toast with sunflower seed butter. And coffee.
Glad that works for you!
See I’m with you, but also one time I drank a smoothie, coffee, and water and went for a run to work and threw everything up immediately. I decided I was an eat after workout kinda girl!
Tessa Newman Yeah it I consume too much before a workout that’s no good either. Just a little fuel in the belly! :-)
Its only worked for me ONCE. I went to the gym and set a bunch of PR’s fasted, but every time I tried after that I felt so tired and weak that I started eating a banana protein smoothie and peanut butter toast beforehand. Much better 👍🏼
melissa j I just get in a light walk and an ab workout before breakfast, I definitely save legs and more intense cardio for after food!!
Love that dudes energy, so positive !
❤️❤️
I keep on noticing the wonderful cookbooks behind you! They are some of my favorites, I love them so much! Thank you for being so helpful!
So glad it is helpful!
I am so happy I came across your channel. I love that you analysis meals like this.
Thank you thank you thank you for addressing the ‘’ male” sphere of nutrition online, full of misinformation and no one really to question it
Glad it was helpful!
Social distancing just became a little bit more fun 😛
😊😊
I'm SUCH a huge fan of your videos! I actually recently decided to shift my career to a more health-focused path and am currently studying to become a certified holistic health coach, and you're such a huge inspiration to me. It was also really nice to hear your message in the beginning of the video regarding registered dietitians and nutritionists! Thank you so much for being so informative in all of your videos!
Love abbeys videos!!! Love the research, the disclaimers on ads and sponsorships, and the facts!!! Abbey doesn’t hate on anyone she just breaks down the information and talks about facts and science which I am a huge fan of. There’s so much weird and false nutrition info online and these videos are so helpful!
I think Derek also has a “why I don’t cook with oil at home” video. I’m fairly certain it’s due to it being a processed food (as he aims for nutrition-dense Whole Foods)
I’ll be talking about all of that in detail in my upcoming video on no oil
its because of omega 3 to 6 balamce, also heating omega sixes in unhealthy and most oils are not extra virgin and even then they can go bad so eating whole foods is just the healthier. and if u use lots of oils it harder to balance out with omega 3s. and if u would cook with it u would rather add it at the end so it wont heat up, but even then it is low in nutrients and high in calories
That’s kind of stupid. Extra virgin olive oil, for example, is literally cold pressed and maybe winterized and that’s it. One could argue that the tahini and mustard he uses are as processed or more than a cold pressed oil.
@@saraangel6696 There are different levels of processed foods- foods like oils have had the fiber as well as many nutrients removed, where as tahini is just ground sesamee seeds with nothing added and nothing taken away, so it is less processed than oils. Tahini is healthier than sesame oil because it retains the fiber and nutrients. Olives are healthier than olive oil for the same reason. Is olive oil still healthier than palm oil? Of course -but that doesn't make it a healthy food when compared to the actual unprocessed, whole food form of fat.
Elle Ribera it’s not “healthier”, it’s just more complex. If that was the case and he was aiming for what you call healthier, then he wouldn’t eat white rice, for example, because the fiber and protein have been removed from the grain, leaving only the carbohydrate rich part. It’s just BS excuses for justifying not using oil.
I have followed Derek for a while now and he is a huge influencer for many people. Yes, Derek does not cook with oil at home but occasionally he does go out to eat which the vegan food he eats does contain oil; just like you said ‘in moderation’! So he is not completely boring oil free!! 😊
Impressed with your "dietitian" and "nutritionist" definitions! In my country, a dietitian is someone who studies a two year degree (but doesn't go to university) about diets and eating in general, and a nutritionist is a scientist that has to study for 4+ years and be an expert on biochemistry, anatomy, physiology, etc.
These are my favorite kind of videos! Thanks for the quarantine entertainment, Abbey! ☺️
❤️❤️
Love the amount of sponsorships Abbey is getting!! Girl get that coinnn ❤️❤️
imminentdoom thank you for the support! Girls gotta support this 👶🏻
Abbey Sharp good luck!! 😂😂❤️❤️
As a vegan trying to ensure I'm getting the right amount of nutrients whilst also not giving up deliciousness in the process, and thus a recent fan of Derek's channel, I found this review to be seemingly unbiased, very detailed and extremely helpful, thank you!
loving the new format of your reviews! :)
❤️❤️
I absolutely LOVE your videos! Thanks for cranking them out!
❤️❤️
Oh my gosh, I had no idea this video was coming; I really enjoy watching both yourself and Derek. Great watch, thanks!
Hanging out for that oil video now too :)
😊😊
Wash and precut veggies and store in a large container. Then you are set for several days. I eat way more variety in my veggies that way.
derek is amazing. one of my fav youtube channels. i wish you would have shown more of his at home lunches. he actually rarely eats out
😊
Abbey, I really enjoy your videos! Thank you for always being sassy and Scientific! Your videos have given me a plethora of knowledge and heightened my awareness on diet culture. Also, giving me confidence in trusting my intuitive eating. Thank you Thank you!
If possible I’d love for you to review Anna Victoria’s what I eat in a day. Also would like to see a video on suggested foods during a women’s menstrual cycle.
Thank you so much for everything 💕
Love Derek! He is so positive and has such a great outlook on nutrition and fitness 🙌💕
😊😊
HES MY FAVORITE!!! We really support him and his merch rocks!
😊😊
I really enjoy how informative, factual, and positive you are. Even when reviewing those with diets that are worrisome, your replies to comments are always factual, positive, and wishing individuals for positive change. Love this channel!!
So glad it is helpful!
I've wanted to see this Derek Simnett review for a while and well done, Abbey!
😊
.... Can we talk about how he had 75 grams of protein from powders at breakfast alone? Why do you keep praising him for "sneaking in" extra protein at every single meal and snack afterwards? I think this hyper-focus on protein in the dietetic community is a little excessive.
I honestly don't know the amount of protein he needs, but he is a nutritionist and often mentions he needs a crazy amount of calories per day because of his excercise routine, but everyone should eat as much as they need according to their body.
Too much protein isn’t even good for our bodies
He does so because he works out every day and is super active. He often mentions that what he does doesn’t necessarily work for everyone and we should all listen to our bodies.
I mean, it depends on how much you work out. If he exercises every day, he probably needs 200-300g of protein depending on his other macros. If he exercises twice in a day, he needs even more than that.
@@Graaaaaar Nutritionist is an unregulated term. Anyone can call themselves a nutritionist. He is not a Dietitian.
Love the content Abbey! I would love for you to review Romee Strigd! x
On the list!
Thanks for educating us, beautiful Abbey! Considering the high amount of information out there, this is so important. Lack of information or incorrect information can cause mental and physical damage to people. So thanks for this channel! ♥️
❤️❤️
Thanks for sharing with us
This is by far my favorite video from you, Abbey. I dont mean that i have anything against you but im happy you have almost only good things to say about his diet. I am personally no oil as well and do not think he needs any extracted fat (oils) but everyone has their own beliefs
I’ll be talking about all of that in detail in my upcoming video on no oil
Umm he’s adorable
And his food looks amazing!
😊
Great video! I love Derek's channel and yours, too! Nice to watch, positive and also informative!
So glad it was helpful!
I requested this vid. Thank you Abbey!
😊😊
Abby is starting to look pregnant, looks nice. Hope you are staying safe.
❤️❤️
Kelsey Phillips her belly rub is so cute.
I have to take antidepressants that make me hungry and binge eat in the evening. I would love to hear your position on this. Maybe some tips. You look amazing
Anabel Dorothea yep be sure to watch my IE series as I do answer this
I'd steer clear of saying things like your antidepressant makes you binge eat. It makes you hungry. These two things are different things and implying that your antidepressant is responsible for any binge eating that you do is really dangerous -- for you and for others who might be on an antidepressant.
@@ohleander02 well binge eating is eating a huge quantity in a short amount of time accompanied with a feeling of loss of control and often shame. That's at least what I've learned.
If this is what one is experiencing, as I am, than one is allowed to say so.
I didn't say it caused me to have a binge eating disorder (if it's a distinctive disorder or a Facette of bulimia non purging type is debatable).
Your uploads really brighten my day 💕
❤️❤️
Dear Abby, I love your style, honesty and information.
OUR GIRL IS GLOWING!!!
❤️❤️
As a vegan it's so inspiring to see a vegan youtuber eat a variety of food and not just smoothies and salads! I'm going to follow this guy. Thanks for sharing!
Glad it was helpful!
I have not been eating a balanced diet ever since this covid stuff started hitting my town. I need Abbey's videos to motivate me and get me excited about nutrition again to help me balance prioritizing my diet while I'm on this crazy work schedule.
So glad it is helpful!
This was amazing Abbey, it was a nice transition to see your perspective on a health and fitness influencer!
Looking forward to see more of these in the future, stay safe! 😃
❤️❤️
Derek and Paul from Hench Herbivore are my go-tos when it comes to vegan performance food and overall chill attitude. :D Can't wait to watch this.
Ruba in the sky ❤️
I'd love to see a review of Rachel Aust's "What I eat in a day" videos. Thank you Abbey :)
I'll have a look!
LOved this video! LOve Derek (and Chrystal) so Im stoked you had some great comments on his diet!
😊😊
I really like this guy's foods and energy. Thanks for presenting him. I'll be checking out some of his other videos and recommendations. Great find.
I’m so happy you explained the differences about RDs and nutritionists! I love your channel! Best wishes to you for a healthy pregnancy and delivery 😊💕
Glad it was helpful!
Couldn't click fast enough when I saw you posted this video. I follow his channel and love his positivity too! He inspires me to eat healthier overall even though I'm not vegan. I think you'll find you like a lot of his content.
That's great!
He is my favorite UA-camer! I trust his advice and his food is always soo colorful!
Aaaaw seeing your bump made me happy. Congrats!
Can you imagine being so indoctrinated by the oil-as-a-health-food narrative that you see someone eat whole fats at literally every meal and still bring up multiple times that they should eat oil to get fat? (I don’t care if people eat oil or not and I liked the video, just don’t like her conclusions on that topic)
yup, agreed.
If I ate oil at every meal Id never leave my bathroom lol. I hate she always pushes oils as a necessity.
@@kristinsearight3813 She seems to push it over whole fats..like why
Hm, I see your point to some degree. I do, in hindsight, agree that she is very focused on oils while he already consumes a fair amount. I think her intention might have been to steer people away from the „oils are unhealthy“ mentality and went a little overboard with it.
Seriously
Very interesting that he doesn’t even eat olive oil. Great videos in general, Abbey! Could we have some reviews of people who eat cheese or gluten ? 😱Who are just vegetarian, not vegan?
I'll have a look!
On beet root- I take it for a fainting disorder, which causes low blood oxygen, low blood count, low blood pressure, among other things. Beet root juice does help all of the above.
What helps more is Chlorophyll- Chlorofresh capsules to be specific. If you're looking for an NO boost, blood oxygen, blood count, bacteria fighting- good for your gut biome, take Chlorophyll. It's the closest thing to hemoglobin found in plants. Beet root juice is second.
Loving These videos, thank you Abbey 😘
😊
His food looks amazing. He's inspired me. The "no oil" thing is a part of Engine 2 Diet (the company that makes his granola)/whole food plant based. Oil is definitely vilified in that way of eating.
I’ll be talking about all of that in detail in my upcoming video on no oil
As a licensed Cosmetology instructor I can honestly say that fragrance in haircare can cause problems but Parabens and Sulfates are good and perfectly safe for most people.
Wow, didn't know that. Thank you 😊
That’s not even true
I actually ordered from Function of Beauty and loved that I could get it without dyes or fragrance since I have such sensitive skin and that’s hard to find in haircare products. But it’s freaking expensive 😂
Eden Wild Doesn’t matter what I am and am not. I think the question you should be asking is why on earth you’d believe some stranger online that they are a “licensed cosmetologist”. A quick search on google will tell you everything you need to know. I could just as easily throw in that I have a medical degree and you’d probably believe everything I say🤣
@@julissiajones6198 your welcome! :-) And I use Suave shampoo from Walmart, although Joico conditioners are the best!
abbey is da best! she has the theory and gives the insight into it. her way of giving feedback is gold and all topped with healthy entertainment. thx abbeyy♥️
❤️❤️
I also love Derek food videos. Thanks for reviewing him positively 😊
Could you do a video about good online programmes to become a nutritionist? I would like to do that simply to get more educated about nutrition since I am really interested. But I am studying chemistry at uni and do not directly want to become a dietitian.
Love your videos :)
I'll have a look!
Have you tried lentil tacos? Just cooked (green or brown) lentils with taco seasoning. I was pleasantly surprised.
Yum!
As always, in line with your channel, this video is thoughtful and well-informed and I LOVE IT!! I would like to see a video review on Caroline Deisler's baby's diet. You've already reviewed her, however I am interested in finding out if this kind of vegan diet is a good fit for a 9-month old toddler.
Bless you Abbey for saving me from quarantine madness
😊
Hi Abbey! I'd love to see you review what a runner eats in a day. Ben Parkes, a vegan and marathoner/ultramarathoner has several videos, and I think Gwen Jorgenson has some on her channel as well!
I'll have a look!
@@AbbeysKitchen thank you 😊
Abbey Sharp id love to see you review those two too, but please keep in mind that they have a very different lifestyle to a lot of these bloggers, Ben is an ultramarathoner and I think some research on your part would be needed
@@nikola206 they do have a much different lifestyle, which is part of the reason why I would love to see Abbey do a review! I think it would make for a nice change from all of the influencers and diet culture that many seem to promote.
Ben, Gwen and the other runners I follow and look up to seem to view nutrition as an essential part of their training process. As important as any of the running, strength training, prehab or rehab work! They fuel their bodies with enough food (no restricting), and try to eat good balances of carbs, protein and healthy fats to support the activity they are doing. Some supplements as well, yes, but I believe they both get regular bloodwork done and consult with doctors or other health practitioners to decide which supplements are needed.
They do live very different lifestyles, especially compared to the average individual, but I think the takeaway of: "eat enough, eat real food with a balanced diet, seek the advice of professionals to decide how to supplement" are things that can be applied to everyone!
alysen87 I know. I was agreeing with you? It’s her that I think needs to do more research than just watch their videos when it comes to running, as just saying “get some more protein” and commenting on how appetising meals look doesn’t quite cut it when you’re reviewing someone who runs ultramarathons
Nobody can give Derek advice in nutrition. His lifestyle concerning diet and exercise while enjoying himself is perfect. He inspired me so much to eat healthy and do exercise that I actually like and be more active
YES!! Thank you for listening to your viewer requests. Love that.
❤️❤️
Ayo just wanted to say as a vegan I love the non-biased approach to this review!! So awesome to see ❤️❤️❤️
