      She's a wise woman. Although many people can live long lives on a meat diet, a fruit and vegetable diet with herbs, spices, nuts, seeds, and mushrooms, is ideal for optimum health. Cooked food can lead to problems down the road. Some foods can be soaked overnight like nuts and legumes to make them more nutritious.

    I steam my broccoli and then pour over them roasted garlic in olive oil and sprinkle red pepper on them, wow delish!!! For the green beans, I also steam and then mix roasted garlic and almonds. For my Brussels sprouts, I only like to cut I half and salt & pepper, pour olive oil on them and bake at 375 degrees for 25 min. Wow that is one of my favorite veggies. Happy cooking!

    Slow Cook a pot of chili with kidney beans, tomato, olive oil, oregano, carrot, celery, garlic, onion, paprika powder, red bell pepper, chili powder optional ….. mushrooms are great cooked with anything. I add it to bone broth too. Medicinal mushrooms - reishi, turkey tail, chaga, can be slow cooked in a crockpot for 8 hours to make. Mushroom water extract.

    Well, I love tomatoes and used to eat them daily. Cherry tomatoes were my ‘drive by’ snack: whenever I came in the kitchen, I’d grab a few.
    But I have been suffering from osteo-arthosis in all my joints and.the pain was hindering my every day activities, especially in my hands. I searched hard online for natural relief and came up with some contradicting statements about tomatoes and joint pain and inflamtion. Some said tomatoes had no influence on that others said it was the first thing to strike from my diet.
    So I decided to do the test and stopped eating tomatoes for a month. Last day was yesterday.
    Now I know FOR SURE that tomatoes are BAD for my joints! Very bad.
    I have hardly any pain in my hands, the swelling is a lot less and I don’t have to take any painkillers anymore.
    All I can say is: eating no more tomatoes sure works for me!

      I too experienced the same. After I came to know that nightshade vegetables contain lectins, especially tomatoes, I stopped eating them. I had arthritis in my hips and could hardly climb the stairs. After cutting those vegetables, I started noticing improvements in my movements. Six months after avoiding them, I could climb the stairs easily without any pain. So, it worked for me. Different bodies have different dispositions; what one works for one may not work for others.

      Yes but you were eating them raw!? COOKING tomatoes alters the chemical composition and allows the licopine (sp) to be more easily digested by the body. Cooking of many vegetables have the same effect in which they become more easily absorbed and digested by the body.

    I eat all the veg you mentioned Doctor, I also eat sardines and avocado! I actually make myself a snack box that I keep in the fridge! I once had arthritis which has now gone due too me eating these vegetables along with Turmeric Cumin and black pepper - My snack box contents are as follows - sliced mushrooms (raw) spinach (chopped up) Avocado (chopped up) rocket (chopped up) tomato (chopped up) cucumber (chopped up) sardine's (chopped up) then I either add a tin of chopped tomato's or a carton of cottage cheese, sprinkle Cumin/black pepper and Turmeric and Garlic salt, red onions (chopped up) Yes it is held in a large container - So one needs to give the contents a good shake! I am not a veggie, but I like my veg! I hope viewers can make this snack box for themselves and help them n fighting inflammations and the diseases you have mentioned Doctor! I live in Scotland where it is cold mostly, yet I have not received a cold/flue for many years! I am 74 years old, a carer for my wife, I am active constantly every day and I try to walk to where I need too be! I have watched many of your video's, as I think you are so knowledgeable and a face one can trust! I also eat broccoli/sprouts and Kale, eggs! So viewing your video's tells me that I am eating the right foods! Never a take away in my house! Many thanks Doctor!

Fresh green beans steamed & sautéed with olive oil and lots of garlic. Broccoli, & Sautéed in olive oil & garlic. I like black beans, best to soak overnight. Serve with orange slices and sautéed collard greens in olive oil & garlic. Place one leaves on top of each other, roll the collard greens like a cigar & cut very thin, than sautéed, but don’t over cook. No more then five minutes on medium heat. Cook Lentils, in chicken or vegetable broth & water. Add a little diced carrots, bay leaf, onions, garlic.

    Tomatoes, potato, eggplant may aggravate joint inflammation pain. Doctors are not taught how to cook in medical school. They usually do not know or recommend traditional culinary herbs and spices that are added to cooking to reduce inflammatory damage. Many traditional recipes that cooks, not doctors, know contain these cooling herbs and spices such as cumin, coriander, fennel, turmeric, mint, dill, tarragon, oregano and others. Ask your Gramma how she cooks her spaghetti sauce. And serve inflammatory or gout producing foods with greens to help balance the effects.

    Question about tomatoes. Is it true that they have lectins that are bad for arthritis? Another doctor has said the skin and seeds are to be avoided along with other nightshade vegetables. 😮

    • @Be.Optimal
      @Be.Optimal  2 місяці тому +9

      There’s some debate about tomatoes and other nightshades (like peppers, eggplants, and potatoes) in relation to arthritis due to their lectin content. Lectins are proteins that can cause inflammation in sensitive individuals. However, research is mixed. While some people with arthritis find relief by avoiding these foods, others have no issues. If you notice symptoms after eating tomatoes, consider removing the skins and seeds or eliminating them from your diet to see if it helps. Always consult your doctor before making significant dietary changes.

      For managing CLL, focus on a diet rich in antioxidants and anti-inflammatory foods. Include leafy greens, berries, turmeric, garlic, and omega-3-rich foods like salmon or walnuts. Avoid processed foods and added sugars. Regular exercise, such as walking or yoga, can help boost immunity and reduce fatigue. Consult with your doctor before making major dietary or exercise changes.

    I have arthritis and have been told to avoid tomatoes. I love them, but aren't the lectins in them a danger?

    • @Be.Optimal
      @Be.Optimal  2 місяці тому +9

      Tomatoes contain lectins, which some believe may aggravate arthritis. However, they are also rich in anti-inflammatory compounds like lycopene. Cooking reduces lectin content, potentially allowing you to enjoy their benefits safely. If tomatoes worsen your symptoms, consider limiting them, but if tolerated, their nutritional value might outweigh the concerns. Consult your healthcare provider for personalized advice.

    • @Lethah
      @Lethah 2 місяці тому +3

      Tomatoes, potato, eggplant may aggravate joint inflammation pain. Doctors are not taught how to cook in medical school. They usually do not know or recommend traditional culinary herbs and spices that are added to cooking to reduce inflammatory damage. Many traditional recipes that cooks, not doctors, know contain these cooling herbs and spices such as cumin, coriander, fennel, turmeric, mint, dill, tarragon, oregano and others. Ask your Gramma how she cooks her spaghetti sauce. And serve inflammatory or gout producing foods with greens to help balance the effects.

    • @Be.Optimal
      @Be.Optimal  2 місяці тому +2

      Avoiding mushrooms after cancer isn't supported by science. In fact, mushrooms like shiitake and reishi have potential anti-cancer properties due to compounds like beta-glucans that support the immune system. They may even slow tumor growth and enhance treatments. However, consult with a healthcare provider to ensure they're safe for your specific condition and treatment plan.

    • @Be.Optimal

      If mushrooms and beans cause inflammation, replace mushrooms with zucchini, eggplant, or tofu, and beans with lentils, quinoa, or sweet potatoes. These alternatives provide similar nutrients and are generally easier to digest. Opt for low-FODMAP foods, cooked vegetables, and smaller, frequent meals to reduce digestive stress and inflammation. Consult a dietitian for personalized guidance.
