The approach of going high carb low fat low protein and doing all these things to heal the gut is counter productive. Not feeling satiated is because you are not having enough fat and protein through your the day. Rather than high carb, have more complex carbs with more fiber to improve digestion. With higher amounts of fat and protein along with carbohydrates you will feel satiated, happy and is more sustainable on the long term. I’ve tried both high carb low fat and low carb high fat. I’ve noticed that balancing, managing all types of macros is what we must learn to do rather than forsaking or isolating foods because of lack of managing them in our diet. I’ve learned we need all macros, all foods. Don’t be afraid to eat all kinds of macros especially if your doing a Whole Foods plant based style of eating.
Can you explain to me how fiber helps with digestion? Last time I checked fiber is indigestable to us humans.
@@krieggilthunder4772 fiber feeds probiotic bacteria. If You dont feed the Good guys with fiber they will not work for you.
Using generic terms can be misleading
High carb?
Well, if that's farrow, whole oats, purple rice, etc...that's good
If it's donuts, bread and cake...that's bad
Fats...if it's avocados, raw nuts and seeds....that's good
If it's oils and animal fats, it's bad
Protein
If it's beans, Brussel sprouts, tofu, oats, nuts....it's good
If it's animals, it's bad
By eating the right foods, you can eat a lot and be satiated.
I like how you talk about gut health so much! I think it's the future of the nutrition science. Loved the video. Cheers :)
Crazy Potato Lady Thanks so much for watching 👍😀
Aleister Crowley 😂😂 I didn't know that science and facts are inclusive and patented! If he spreads the facts and science why would I care that he repeats after someone? I wouldn't watch that doctor but I would watch GojiMan. Get over it 😁
I also enjoyed how he spoke on gut health! Thanks so much for this very helpful info:) GojiMan
Yesterday for breakfast i had oatmeal, about 1 1/2 cups, with one small banana, 1 1/2 tbsp of chia seed, 1 tbsp of flax seed, 1 tbsp of almond butter, 2 dates chopped, a little cinnamon and vanilla extract. This kept me very full, seriously, for about 6 hours, it was very good and satisfying
is this after you "changed your bacteria" or why are you telling this?
@@nichts_und_niemand what are you talking about
@@lola0600 Late reply but they were talking about the theme of the video, changing your gut bacteria. I'm curious as well if you had done anything to change your gut bacteria, how long you have been eating like this, etc.
That's because your stomach is full, not the same thing as satiety. I skip breakfast 3-5 days a week and I'm not hungry at all while I'm doing it. That's satiety.
Yeah oatmeal is the best
I'm on my 21st day of being a vegan and lately I've been feeling really hungry especially when it's night time. I eat my three meals a day and don't starve myself or try to eat out of boredom, I've also been working out lately to loose some weight. But it's difficult to sleep at night with my stomach waking me up because it wants me to eat. :(
Very good video. I wish I had seen this video years ago when all my nasty gut bugs were screaming for sugar and making me insatiably hungry all the time. And spot-on with the approach to healing the gut, I followed that general protocol in a not-so-formal or linear way and eventually found myself on the other side with a much healthier gut. This guy knows his stuff!
Love what you said about the quick fix at the end. Everyone always expects these problems to go away overnight. It simply doesn't work that way.
Emotional eating and habits are also very powerful.
I stuff so much face as a high carb, high fiber vegan and I'm only really hungry if I accidentally skip a meal. I don't limit myself with raw fruits and veggies, but I eat a sensible amount of cooked starches. Like FDA serving sizes.
As of right now, I have gone from wearing a size 2XL shirt to wearing a size Medium 🎉and I'm still losing weight!
Aaaannnnd.........
My cravings have actually started to align with what my body actually needs, like if I need vitamin C, I crave bell peppers and citrus fruits. If I need iron, i'll crave dark greens and oatmeal, and when I am feeling a little sleepy, I want cooked starch like potatoes.
They aren't serious cravings, more like "huh. *insert food * sounds like a good idea " while I'm cooking my meals
Thank you so much for the work you put on the videos 😊 this one in particular made me learn a bunch of new things!
Andreia Rodrigues Thanks so much for watching 👍😀
Very thorough, thank you, as it is so important to have a 'vital' gut. Really resonated with what you said about the lack of B and fat soluble vitamins and fatty acids when you have unwanted bacteria/overgrowth. It is debilitating when not diagnosed correctly. When the gut is functioning the head is clear and the 'brain fog' and listlessness goes.
You missed a MAJOR point when it comes to satiation. Calories are NOT the most important factor to make us feel satiated. I, and MANY others, that have been HCLF could eat up to 4000 calories a day and the stomach was almost bursting and STILL we didn't feel satiated. Volume, fiber and calories are only part of the picture and PROTEIN is the major key to feeling true satiation. They need to up their protein and I promise you, the satiation will follow. It's not always as complicated as we make it. So everyone reading this, just try it out! Eat more protein and you will feel more satiated! Many high carbers are relying too heavily on starches and fruit. Some do well on this, but the majority need more protein to feel satiated. This is my experience along with MANY others. I'm a Nutritional therapist btw. Best regards!
Cammi Eklund I had the same experience. I was starving all day despite how much I was eating. I added some walnuts with my fruit and I felt so much better. Hummus makes raw veggies a lot more appealing.
Wamuu, legumes like lentils and peas already are high carb low fat
A bit of beans and tofu. Nuts seeds and legumes irritate my bladder. It is really hard to get full on just carbs for sure.
Wamuu - Divine sandstorm Remember that your body does need fat. Don't go too extreme. Eating 20% of your daily calories in healthy fats is perfectly fine
Also more fat helps!
I basically followed this protocol and am doing much better now! My appetite is balanced during my non-eating phases of the day, but i still do have my one dark chocolate a day!! ; }
Angela_ SoManyThings You can put 100% dark cocoa powder in oatmeal and get a lot more chocolate. :)
suicune2001 - great idea, i just bought some organic chocolate powder!!
Angela_ SoManyThings Throw in some strawberries while it's still really hot on the stove and YUM!
One whole chocolate?😗💚
Ranek Inpinewoods - haha no! One small square piece !! Lol
This is the first video of yours that I've watched and I'm definitely hooked! I'm 2.5 years vegan but recently my sister was diagnosed with A.L.L. which led me to eventually discover the Gerson therapy, and with that an even deeper understanding of disease. This all really kicked me into another level with my diet and I was very driven to cut out the vegan junk foods I was living on and go strong with WFPB. BUT, I would come home from work in the morning and have terrible junk food binges, and felt friggin horrible about it! I was like some kind of uncontrollable monster. I decided to ~~FINALLY~~ use cronometer to see exactly how I was doing eating intuitively. I was surprised, shocked, upset, to see that I was eating nearly half of the calories that I needed... Wow. This, at a time where I'm trying to put on muscle lol. After fixing my calories as best I can and playing with things, the junk food binges have stopped, but I'm using some junk foods to help me get to my calorie goals and I hope to be able to figure out how to adjust for that eventually too. ANYWAYS, thank you for this video! Can't wait to check out your others, I found you in the comments section on TVP's videos~~
Brandonssk Thanks buddy and good luck with everything 👍😀
THIS WAS BRILLIANT!!!! I have been exercising a lot more since I moved to a different city and started cycling to work. Its more than an hour of exercise per day that way and I have been having M A S S I V E sweet cravings. Now I know that my body just needs a pinch of Magnesium. I'm so relieved! :-)
I've been vegan 14 years now, and get about 45% calories from fat - I'm almost never hungry.
When I did HCLF I was hungry all the time
I also got hungry a lot for awhile on HCLF, but then started doing a better job eating protein with the carbs and mixing a little fat with salads. And having a longer stretch when I don't eat anything. But I'm still down around 12% calories from fat and 75% carbs.
How much bodyfat do u have?🤗
@ seeds mostly with some nuts too
#askgojiman Please give us some specific instructions to restore gut microbes. Here in the US naturopaths are scam artists and regular doctors don't acknowledge things like gut flora and candida protocols. I feel lost and desperate, and thats exactly what the naturopaths want to scam desperate people with snakeoil. There has to be a protocl that can work for everybody, if not please find one! you are our only hope gojiman!
#askgojiman I'm massively binging hard on your videos, is this healthy? 🤔
Great channel mate!! Subscribed!
GEO LECHUGA se.habla.vegan Thanks buddy
I'm underweight and keep losing weight, what should I do? My appetite is not there and eating 2500 calories a day is, somehow, not enough to maintain weight
What an absolute legend! Best video thank you so much!
#askgojiman Wow, this really hit home with me. I have been a sugarjunkie my entire life and always struggle like a demon to stay on diets. Do you have suggestions to how one can test for which bad bacteria that has "taken over" in the gut? I doubt that my run of the mill GP will have any input on this..
I think your about to blow up in popularity yo ;)
Not with his intro.
Perfect video for most of the population!
Incredibly informative, thanx a million
#askgojiman My wife is on her 5th month of her second pregnancy and just got diagnosed with gestational diabetes. She's already having some issues with indegestion and it's getting harder already to keep the diet going. Until we can see a nutritionist, I didn't know if they're are certain foods to aviod(besides animal products) and certain times to eat fruits. We are trying to keep it mostly whole foods with a oatmeal or granola for bfast(sometimes cereal but rarely) lunch can be anything but is usually veggie based though now a whole lot of veggies seem to cause to much indigestion(thinking about steaming only). Dinner will usually be the biggest meal with pasta, potatoes or rice being the base. She`ll snack on fruits or home made hummus and guac in between meals when hungry. She also has fruit for desert as well. Our doctor recommended bacon and eggs for breakfast and scolded us when we told him we were vegan. Sadly, he didnt have any recomendations for us but keep the carbs low.
No oats , no bread , no potatoes , no bananas , no mangoes . All have a very high glycemic value . Which means they will rise blood sugar a ton . Rice is also a good thing to avoid . If she wants to eat rice . Do only a small quantity ( half cup cooked ) . Add fat and protein to meals .
One of the most informative videos I have ever seen 🙏🏻 thank you for it
My best friends are good bacteria in my guts and having a good friends is what makes us happy .
For me it was because I was eating too much fruit and too less whole grains and legumes for my caloric needs, so pay attention to your calories and make sure you're hitting at least the daily dozen
Vegetable Police has completely gone off the rails. I have asked him if he has looked into Dr Gregger’s videos to help heal the damage he has done with his crazy “Vegan” diet (I put that in quotations because he is clearly plant based and not an ethical person) and he proceeded to call me a bitch and said I was spreading hate. He seems to have lost all form of sanity he may have ever had.
Vegan Tina I think he made up his mind long ago
Bitch? And people buy that humble "aw shucks Im a nice guy" routine. In reality he does not appreciate any opinions that don't jibe with his own, especially criticism. He can be quite nasty.
He is obsessed with reaching some godly status where he no longer poos. I don't get why he didn't just chill out and eat a balanced plant based diet. He goes from one extreme to another... the salad cleanse, the fruit cleanse, the water cleanse, drinks turpentine... maybe if he just ate normal and went and had an actual test for parasites and candida or got a test for food allergies, he would be fine. I think he must think because the animal products are slowing down his digestion that his issue is gone... but he might end up with an even worse one in the end. And he puts his health before the animals, he says, but our environment is at a tipping point and we might not be around too much longer if we dont change.
Andrea Aldrich exactly
Hey there. I'm a new subscriber, and I am so excited and relieved to see a vegan talking about nutrition who has actually studied it, or studied anything actually. I really loved watching this video, and listening to everything that you had to say. I do however hope that you can appreciate, I believe that it is a mistake to take anything anybody says at face value, without doing some proper research. I would be so grateful if you could maybe link a few DOIs in your descriptions that discuss or prove some of what you are saying in the future if possible, just so I can go over and have a quick squidge through. Books are cool too, especially if they are online, and particularly if they are on journal sites like ScienceDirect, etc. Please :). Thanks and kind regards.
You need to eat carbs with protein. I felt like I was starving all day when I was eating blueberries, blackberries, cucumber, and tomatoes. Eating blueberries with walnuts and cashews is far more satisfying. Or veggies with hummus.
suicune2001 fats are satiating. They take much longer to digest.
Tess Ney-Filomeno Fats feel emotionally satisfying but protein is physically satisfying. But if you eat something like a nut, that has both protein and fat so win win.
Beans for the win!
@@suicune2001 your body has to break protein down in order to use it. Protein breaks down into amino acids. You don't need protein....you need amino acids.
Finally someone without an unstable emotional byus who explains nutritional science! Great step into going youtube m8! Dont know if you've been here for long but anyway! Subbed!
If you encourage cooking your food i will un-sub however! Make your next step wisely.
VEG GIE Ha ya thanks mate. I leave the cooing to other people
You eat fully raw or? :)
Wow! Fascinating!
just do a 3 day fast.
#askgojiman Hi Gojiman, can you please recommend some good candida/stool tests for bacteria/yeast within the UK? NHS? Thanks
A big help for me was eating papaya seeds in the morning and before bed for 2 weeks this kills parasites and so much more.
great video!
Excellent video!!!!!!
I love your channel!!! Thank you.
really glad you like it 👍
#askgojiman HI! WHAT DO YOU SUGGEST FOR CHRONIC SINUSITIS, SWOLLEN LYMPH NODES UNDER JAW, SWOLLEN PAROTYD GLANDS? FOR SOMEONE WHO SUFFERS FROM IT ALREADY 6 YEARS? 3 YEARS OF RAW VEGAN DIET ABUNDANT IN LEAFY GREENS, AND PREVIOUSLY LIVING AS VEGETARIAN 15 YEARS? NEITHER DIET, NEITHER ANTIBIOTICS ARE NOT HELPING AT ALL. I apologize for poor english, Please do a video on the topic! Thanks!☺
I'm a little surprised you didn't recommend a higher fiber intake.
#askgojiman - could you talk about not having much of an appetite and difficulties gaining weight? I'm borderline underweight and struggle to even get my daily maintenance calories in. I've been trying to gain weight over the last few years, but it doesn't even happen when eating 3000 calories a day last summer (a supposed 700 calorie surplus). Thanks! Enjoying the content!
Matthew Davis Can I have some of your metabolism? Lol
#askgojiman Can you compare the so called healthy sweeteners on their negative and positive effects on the body overall, insulin, what it does to hunger/satiation cues and how they affect the GUT bacteria...etc etc? The specific sweeteners I'm thinking about are: Coconut Sugar, Maple Syrup, Agave Nectar, Stevia, Erythritol, Dextrose (not healthy I think but I'm not sure...It appears frequently in some products). Furthermore, when craving sweets, I always crave chocolate, what is better to have: a few squares of a healthy dark chocolate bar, or oatmeal+maple syrup+cocoa powder+ stevia? these are very specific foods but please answer what to eat when craving sweets generally.
I LOVE LOVE your videos! please continue. I am so helped by all the detailed biochemistry and nutritional knowledge you share, in my pursuit of overall healthy living as an active vegan.
How healthy are your Probiotics?
VPs response "He's smarter than us", a bit condescending and passive aggressive? Don't respond anymore he doesn't deserve your help or knowledge and he won't listen anyway. He's off to Nickacado-land.
And gojiman was described as smug in the comments lmao. Not like a nutrition major can confidently talk about his profession in an attempt to help someone. I guess him and his anti-science delusional followers don't want any help.
Annie Don't include me in the anti-science/ anti-medicine crowd---all my vaccinations are up to date--I drink my fluoridated water and even use my high-fluoride prescribed toothpaste--I take my full courses of antibiotics whenever recommended--I take my inhalers religiously and my prescribed steroids for various issues as recommended by my doctor--I've had numerous surgeries as recommended by my medical professionals and they've all worked out swell. I'm one of the healthiest people I know. I despise "that crowd" too! I vote censorship as I'm sure you agree--they are getting out of hand! :)
people don't respond well when you act like a condescending prick, who knew?
*Lef D* - _we knew what you meant, and you are right.. but VegPol schtick is that he is funny, and loves experimenting on his body.. people don't go there for science or fact...!_
*Annie* - _its not one day, its happening now....people are accelerating their demise all throughout youtube land...lol. UA-cam/Social media is a place you can visit to observe how moronic the human species actually in all its glory and a place where people can go to confirm their bias on a daily basis... brilliant eh!_
I have a massive sweet tooth and this honestly helped me understand why so much.
Go the other way and eat high fat and low carb. Bacon and eggs, salmon and butter and you won't be hungry.
How about people who develop digestive issues like ulcerative colitis after going vegan? I understand how a pre-existing issue might not be fixed by going vegan, if you don’t take the right steps, but how could a problem get worse by eating healthy vegan?
I'm guessing certain fibers are irritating your gut. Gojiman has two other videos on gut health plus you should watch the one where he talks about Jordan Peterson's carnivore diet, and Vegetable Police quitting veganism. In both he talks about gut issues, they're really good and I'm trying to implement the tips in those vids.
Ube
Thank you! I’ll do that.
if you do decide to add a probiotic, I'll throw out Elixa as one to look into.
Ube
Thanks! I will.
Are there any specific dietary recomendations/suggestions for someone to follow if they have had their gallbladder removed - also, as I no longer have a "bile store" could there be vitamins and minerals that I am missing out on or more likely to be low on. I have had my gallbladder removed, and I hear that it's one of the most common surgical procedures - most likely due to my bad diet.
#askgojiman what are your thoughts on water fasting to clear bad bacteria out of your gut?
avoid dry fasting if you have gut problems (water fasting for 24 hours or LESS is fine)
Nutritionist here looking for another professional’s opinion. What do recommend is the best micronutrient profile of a vegan diet, when pertaining to health? Many recommend HCLF, but academically this is viewed as extremist. The standard approach is have more of an equal balance.There’s a lot of historical evidence that suggests we are starch eaters, but this not the overall consensus. Thanks#askgojiman
#AskGojiMan
Dear GojiMan,
I saw you made some videos on female topics so maybe you also know more about the two following widespread femalish issues:
1) How to heal the root problem of PMS (especially menstrual pain) further to the hormon and omega 3 aspect ? Most austrian doctors recommed birth controll pills or pain killers. I find this very frustating and unsatisfying.
2) How to cure chronical UTI without chemical synthesised antibiotics? There are lot of herbal remedies which sometimes might help, but what is in your opinion the clue to sustainable cure it? So to clarify I'm looking for a longterm solution since I already gethered experience with different teas, probiotics, apple cider, cranberry, mustard oils, capuchin cress, oregano and thymian oils, vitamine c, vitamine d, D-Mannose (which I btw supsect to mess with gut bacteria). I recently found some thesis on specific helpful microbioms like lactob. fermentum, rhamnosus and crispatus, but havn't got any results with those yet and maybe I missed something so I'm curious if and what you know about UTI.
If you have (or in near future will get) some helpful information on one these topics please consider to share it with us!
I highly appreciate your videos and the work you do in the (plant based) health community.
Thank you so much and lot of greetings from Austria!
PS: Recently I more often stumble on the information that toxins and as a result parsites are causing the problems, but nowadays everthing seams to be connected to parasites and different protocolls are sold so I'm not sure how reliable this is. So if my first to questions are not suiting you (right now) I'd be [besides being also interested what you think of a suitable vegetable police parasites protocol] very keen on your thoughts on parasites since it seams to cause so many different problems and there are tons of different protocols how to cure them, I'm still very insecure about a high fat diet and/or terpentine and what it is causing to the gut bacteria etc.
Also there are also a lot of different parasites so how to test for all of them and do you think is there legitimate way how to cure all of them at the same time without needing to test for everything?
Śūnyatā Eight, thank you for sharing - I appreciate it a lot. I havn't tought of iodine in a UTI context yet and I will check it up :)
Which medical person should I go to to figure out what my gut bacteria level is? Just moved and got a primary I’m seeing Monday. I’ve been fighting stomach bloating and pain and GI stuff, anxiety and depression. I was vegan but not a great one just as you describe.
Great channel
This is so true, I love it! Yas!
Thicc Vegan thanks so much for watching 👍
Amazing!!
I had rise porridge and banana for breakfast, was super hungry by 11 and ate my lunch (fried rise with lots of cabbage and beans) and fruits. two hours after I'm hungry again and reaching for sugary and fatty snacks. For God's sake girl!!!
#askgojiman? hey, what exactly is candida you always talk about? according to the studies dr. greger and his helpers were able to find its conflicting and apparently not statisticly significan to be called a real disease. is the definition that you're using different than the one in said studies greger looked through?
yeast, bacteria and parasite issues in the gut can be a real big issue, I believe that~
but how is candida supposed to help me here? please define :)
With someone with yeast intolerance what would you recommend instead of fermented foods?
#askgojiman why have I become Superman after going to 80-90% carnivore diet after being plant-based for past 12 years? I have always been very physically active while I was plant-based; I took up distance trail running four years ago, ran a 1:11 half-marathon this spring but over trained and developed a hip flexor and IT band injury soon after. The one thing I have to thank for my recovery is the carnivore diet. I was rehabbing while I was plant based; I was sore, and my injuries hurt. Switched to the carnivore diet and my energy went through the roof, my rehab started inducing healing through my injuries, and I am quickly surpassing my prior plant-based health and strength. So I reiterate, how can I believe anything about my former plant-based diet when my new carnivore diet is making me feel like Superman?
Call us back in a few years or few decades--people often feel terrific and have lots of energy on a new diet. Unfortunately, all major chronic diseases ramp up with increasing meat consumption.
Karl Wheatley I hear what you are saying, but verify it. You can say whatever you want; provide facts, studies, whatever you want, I am going to base my diet and it’s benefits on the effects it has on my body. There is so much information about diet out there today, and a lot of it is inaccurate. Not every person should be on the same diet. Did you run 9 miles yesterday? Are you going to run up hills this weekend? So how can you say that my diet is going to kill me when my body might very well need all the fats and proteins meat provide?
soils microbes are not so great due to farming practices, chlorine in water kills good gut bacteria, veg and fruit contain pesticides and many of these are carcinogenic, low saturated fat diet tend to lower resistance to candida as saturated fats are the ultimate anti fungal food, but herbs are just temporary unless you want to eat loads as part of your diet, i.e. oregano, tumeric, garlic but they are more medicinal in fat. Repair gut lining with fats which encourage good cellular rigidity.
Hey goji I have an overgrowth of proteus bacteria I’ve been getting better with more veggies less meat cow colustrum and a few antimicrobials such as garlic wormwood berberine and olive leaf along with FOS and probiotics. Any advice??
#askgojiman - well done, I am eager to improve my gut health. Do you ever do consults with individuals?
I don’t understand why people that don’t want your advice and only bash you , follow you. To all the haters unsubscribe.
Very interesting Video, but for me not very useful as I can't get a stool test for the bacteria in my gut from my Doctors and I've no idea how to do it privately so these suggestions are of no practical use to me I'm sure they would be for anyone who could follow his advise though
do you know where or how to test my gut in France ...because the link or company you've already given are not avaliable in my country ...
There’s so much more to this than the gut health factor, which no doubt is important. I’m glad you mentioned stress, but the list of reasons why someone isnt feeling satisfied is long and needs to be analyzed on a case by case basis. The most common reason is just flat out not eating enough calories, emotional issues play a role and food addiction is real so processing any suppressed grief, anger, and fear will help, finding a way to love the new food you are eating is important, and ill stop there bc the list could go on for a while.

How to heal metabolic damage after multiple extended water-only fasts and calorie restriction? #askgojiman
metabolic damage = lost muscle mass. you need to put on muscle. stop listening to the "eat unlimited calories" crowd, it's bs. putting on muscle mass is the only thing that will increase the amount of calories you burn at rest, and it will make you healthier in other ways as well.
Phil Griffiths Muscles speed up your metabolism. Check your TDEE and make sure you eat that amount every day. You need to make sure you have complete proteins in your body to support muscle growth. It's easy to get complete proteins with meat but if you're vegan then you'll have to eat a variety of foods. Go to the gym and do mostly strength training with intermittent cardio. Don't starve your body. Make sure you get enough calories.
Thank you both for your replies. I have been going to the gym and I have more muscle mass than before the fast so it's kind of strange, there has to be something else amiss. My thyroid levels have shown issues in the past but seemed to be doing okay since the last tests. I eat enough so as to not be hungry. In the last weeks, I've focused more on getting more protein. I have been able to slowly lower my calories back to normal amounts since the extreme hunger phase passed. Prior to fasting, my set point was 67 or 68 kg eating 3000 kcals (according to cronometer) primarily from fruit and starch, along with cooked carbs, veg, nuts and even occasional processed foods (vegan mock meats). My weight has been very stable at 113 kg, since June so perhaps I've reached the top, lol. I wondered if Gojiman has any ideas, because I have noticed possible signs of bacteria overgrowth since the fast, and it could have enabled it to occur when my body was running in a suppressed state where I could not digest foods very well and digestive system was slow after the fast also.
Phil Griffiths Keep in mind that weight loss isn't the goal - it's fat loss. You might weigh the same because you are replacing fat with muscle. Watch your sugar intake and eat protein and carbs after your workout. A simple way to check your progress is to measure your waist or get one of those things that can measure your fat percentage. I forget the actual name of the thing.
#askgojiman - Many people say that "a little animal products" eg. fish once a week, will give you undefined extra benefits without severe downsides, since the concentrations of badness are so low. Thoughts?
Is nutritional yeast good for you? #askgojiman
Chia seeds would stop your food cravings.
You have so deep knowledge but you are talking so fast i have too keep rewinding the videos. But thanks for this knowledge
#askgojiman yes a video about acne please. I get significantly less breakouts since I went vegan, but my skin texture is a bit worse somehow and its taking more time to fade acne scars. I eat pretty healthy, not many proccessed foods.
Could you make pls a video about coffee?
This guy sounds like very educated and sanctimonious.
How about the opposite effect? Why am I not hungry?
sounds like my brother, has to remind himself to eat, thankfully he's not underweight or scrawny so I think it's okay
#askgojiman What do you think about FODMAPS for IBS? Can it help in a long run and cure IBS or is it just a way to manage the symptoms without treating the cause?
this is a good question because I looked into it because I'm a little confused as to if it's suppose to be a cure if used with other things that rebalance flora because it seems like blogs talk about it as a method to find what gives you symptoms and then you stay away from those foods. But I know of one site that said long term it might not be good for flora because healthy flora needs those foods?? idk
Oh wow. No one ever told me about gut bacteria and cravings. -_-
#askgojiman what is your opinion that we shroud eat only10% of our calories by weight from fruit and that 85% of all fruits are hybrids , Brian clement is the one who promotes this and the green blue algee and we shoul eat everything only when it sprouts thanks I just discovered your channel and it's great I have more questions but this is what I want to know!!!
Drink two glasses of water before a meal, eat a plate of veggies with your meals, and don't be too afraid to add fat and protein to your meals. Problem solved.
#askgojiman Mate there are so many trolls in your comments section you really need to start deleting them. Great channel btw
What happen when the body crave salt.
Ilda Harper, I have heard salt cravings are due to weak adrenals.
do you need to add specific bacteria to fermented food?
Where would you recommend getting the tests done @gojiman
How the fuck do microbes and yeast that are not a part of your nervous system make you hungry..? wtf?
All you have to do is use cronometer, why can't people learn?
#askgojiman If a low FODMAP diet helps me a lot, is it enough to suggest I have SIBO and may need rifaximin? Or can FODMAPs cause problems even without SIBO?
#askgojiman what are the types of fermented vegetables? i don't think i've ever eaten anything fermented except soy sauce and tofu. And how do you make them? Also can you simply go to a laboratory and ask for a bacteria gut test? What if there are many different types? Which one should I choose?
Sauerkraut would be the main one, very easy to make. Kimchi is another one
Any vegetable you mix with salt or salt water brine and allow to culture is good. Besides sauerkraut, I love fermented green beans, and different colored cauliflower. Of course, cucumber pickles done in brine the old fashioned way are classic.
If salt is an issue, draining the whey from a big batch of vegan yogurt works, and so does rejuvelac, a liquid made from fermenting sprouted wheat. Use them instead of brine.

Hello! I'm trying to understand how a high carb low fat diet burns fat. I can understand how keto burns fat, I just can't find any clear information on how our bodies burn fat when on a high carb diet. I am currently on week 3 of 10 doing exclusively whole-foods, plant-based high carb low fat and can see and feel that I'm losing fat. I just want to be able to explain from a scientific perspective on how it is all happening.
Thanks in advance!
It’s more recently been found to be more like 1.34 to 1 microbes to cells not 10:1
#AskGojiMan any advice on how to wean off antacids like proton pump inhibitors?
Forgive me if you've already addressed this I haven't watched all your videos yet. Thank you for this video this is exactly what I'm going through now. I know my stomach is full, I even eat more than before but I feel so hungry it almost hurts. Knowledge is power and I feel this will empower me to get through it. Thank you so much.
have you watched his other vids on gut health/bloating because I recently watched them and looked into the supplements he mentioned (Betaine hcl, enzymes) and on some of the reviews for those items I saw at least a few people say they decreased there ppi pills with them.
Thank you, I will check them out. I'm hesitant to take anything though, in fear I will create a new problem. I was prescribed the antacids for abdominal pain. I never had heartburn in my life. I still had the abdominal pain and now whenever I try to stop the PPIs I have severe chest pain. So severe I end up in the ER convinced I'm having a heart attack. Now I don't trust anything.
sorry to hear that, well, I think it was Gojiman's vid on bloating that he talked about acid reflux; hope you find a solution :)
Ube thank you!
#askgojiman I'm worried about my HDL cholesterol although I have very low total cholesterol as well. My HDL was still very low before I was vegan and before I started exercising. What is the ideal ratio, should I be concerned for low HDL if the ratio is ok, and what are some good ways to increase my HDL level? My doctor recommended lowering processed carb intake, but I mostly eat whole grain breads anyway, so I'll be lowering all intake of breads and rice for now.
SesquipedalianDragon Are you following his list of foods to eat to get all your vitamins? You need more good fats like walnuts and cashews. You can also take marine phytoplankton supplements to get your omega-3.
HDL cholesterol levels are overrated. Randomized mendelian studies suggest they are a marker of something else, not a causal factor in heart disease. And if your LDL is in the healthy range (35-65) or close and you're eating a plant-based diet, I can't see why you'd have anything to worry about.
#askgojiman What effect does water fasting have on gut bacteria if at all? How many days would it take to affect your gut bacteria on a water fast?
Why does this video completely ignore the role of blood sugar and insuline spikes in constant hunger and cravings while consuming a lot of carbs? Fruits make me ravenous, and I know I'm not the only one. They give a lot of people cravings, because those carbs don't keep you full.
I've been eating whole foods for 2 years so processed foods and gut health have nothing to do with my inability to thrive on a HCLF diet. Now I actually thrive on a low-carb high-fat diet, because it keeps my blood sugar levels stable. Everyone's different, but some of us just aren't meant to eat a lot of carbs, even from whole foods. Eating a lot of fructose is actually a great way to get fatty liver... Blaming people's gut health when they're not happy on HCLF is borderline bigoted.
Salads, dense with legumes, nuts, seeds, fruit (tomatoes, berries): fill up on complex carbs. I eat nuts throughout the day if I feel munchy
The banana is the most sugary food you can eat.
always hungry regardless of whatever diet
You’re even better than Dr McDougall. Marvellous

#askgojiman could you talk about coffee? Pros and Cons. Who should and shouldn't. There is so much contradiction out there.
#askgojiman why do so many people not address their health problems while vegan and just go back to eating animal products?
He is taking about the 4rgut programme
#askgojiman What are different factors affecting high blood pressure? Are there downsides on blood pressure meds?
