If it's animal based food you know the answer already. No matter if it's organic, grass fed or whatever.
Would you please advice on Curcummin's dose-dependent liver toxicity according to this study "Pharmacokinetics prediction and drugability assessment of diphenylheptanoids from turmeric (Curcuma longa L)."
I have spent months researching treating anxiety at home and found an awesome website at Kevs Control Plan (google it if you're interested)
Scynable Jacob homie do you not even think the scientific nature of the docs approach understands the make up of grass fed cows buttermilk.. come on man behave.. don't tell your granny how to suck eggs :s
gcerpa1980 that's where you are wrong buddy certain animal amino acids can only be obtained from meats organs and bones 🍖 so sorry pal it looks like you don't kno the question.. never mind the answer!!
I really like the comparison graphs! You should use this more often :.P
People freak out SO MUCH about insulin response... This is a great way to show them how much harm meat is really bringing in terms of the insulin response.
BigTallTrainer I'm sick of people trying to be smartasses by saying: "Uhm actually fruit is very unhealthy cause blood sugar spikes!!" This isn't even just a thing amongst low carbers, people in general perpetuate this myth since sugar is so bad right? And then they turn around and drown their food in hundreds of oil calories that supply little to no nutrition but since humans need fat and carbs are the worst it's ok!!!!
Insulin signals to the body it is time for anabolic activity, carb storage, protein synthesis, and repair. In and of it self not a bad thing.
That is very true....however the degree is also important. A larger insulin spike doesn't mean more anabolism and bigger muscles and more repair. I mean c'mon if it did, then most of America would be so freaking fit and healthy.
Des Troya lol it doesn't need to be that high especially since it will be chronic
Fat is the only macronutrient that doesn't cause an insulin response. What's so surprising about the fact that adding more food, if it doesn't contain much fat, increases the insulin response?
(If the only criteria was zero insulin response, the answer would be to only eat fat. Of course, that would cause health problems, too.)
Very interesting video and great point you make about adopting a healthy diet being the more logical choice than taking drugs to counter the effects of a bad diet. I have this discussion with people a lot. There are lots of things I don't eat, because I know what's in them and I want to avoid inflammatory foods. People at whose houses I can't eat anything often say to me that my diet sounds like not a lot of fun. Meanwhile, those same people have trouble keeping up with me and are always complaining about being tired, having headaches, etc. People will rather take Statins, than change their diet, let alone exercise (and you don't have to go to the gym 3 times a week, but go for a walk a few times a week, instead of driving everywhere, right?). And it's such a waste, because they'd be happier and healthier in so many ways.
Thankyou so much for thede videos. Recently i had blood tests and everyrhing was fine except for the fact that i am at the doorstep of a type 2 diabeted (both dad and grandad have it..) so this series is helping me a lot. We are told that carbs skyrocket your insuline.. so when i became vegan i was very fearful. This series is helping me so much!
how? i watch these videos and they are interesting, but i am not sure how to apply this knowledge. I try to eat less to no meat, and stay away from junk process foods ... which is hard for me.
Oh wow, i will link this video in my upcoming big Insulin video! Thx Dr. Greger! ^^
Amazing content doc. I really wanted to see a video talking about negative effects of whey protein, in case there is. Thank you and keep up with the great work. Cheers from Taiwan
From Ecuador and Poland, we tell you "Good job doc!"
you are awesome dr greger. you have great videos and we all learn so much
I use to avoid avocados..... Until now...
Why in the world would you avoid one of the healthiest vegetables with top source of essential fatty acids?
N 9 N E cause it tastes too much like butter 😂
Try Lemon + Sea Salt :) or Nutritional Yeast and mash together
Don't we need 3-4times more omega 6 then 3 for optimal health? Hemp seeds have perfect 3 to 6 Ratio and Nutritionally dense like combining flax with chia minus the calcium and vitamin K yet double the protein, potassium, zinc and phosphorus of the two and even triple the manganese.
Also a source of GLA for healthy brain and heart function.
So fascinating and he puts out so much of this content!!
To be clear, my blood sugars do rise slightly when I eat an avocado by itself; however, when I eat meat, cheese, fat (virgin coconut oil), Irish butter, or avocado oil) with the avocado, my blood glucose lowers (e.g. hence insulin spike)... imagine that! For the record, I eat 8-10 cups of green veggies daily (i.e. sometimes blended to retain fiber), also, if I eat 1/2 pink grapefruit with 2 eggs and 1 tbls virgin coconut oil or grass fed butter, my blood glucose lowers too. I might not be a medical doctor, actually a computer doctor (pun intended), but I have completely stopped taking insulin (fast and or long term) since January and reduced blood pressure simply by eliminating grains (ALL), prepared foods, fast food, and eating at least 7 cups of raw green veggies daily with fats and I am older and was dealing with 15 years as a type 2 diabetic. I still cannot eat crappy food, but animal and fruit are definitely part of my dietary intake and if raw milk was available in my area, I would also consume 2 cups daily. It would be nice to see some studies on meat, cheese, eggs, dairy, and nuts paired with leafy greens and non starchy veggies without the grains. I hope my pancreas heals to normal soon, but an average of 120 - 130 daily is not too awful when it was an average of 275 in December 2016! I agree with the concept of this video: eat your veggies and live a plant based lifestyle!
> I eat 8-10 cups of green veggies daily
That doesn't make you sick?
What if you eat the chicken without the rice question what does that do to the insulin Spike?
Great video. Thank you for all you do.
Truly amazing information - highly increasing motivation to change toward whole food plant based and nuanced with this sophisticated knowledge of berries, nuts, avocados and non alcoholic red Wine
If I drink even two ounces of wine at night, my fasting blood sugar goes UP approx 20 points. How does that fit in with your study results?
How about plant based shakes Dr?
Fantastic video! Thank you
Stumbled across your channel today and NOT consuming in moderation!!
Great video!! Gave me an insight into certain foods in a novel way
Very valuable information as always. Thank you!
You should link your sources in the description
The list of references are on the page on his website where this video is located
Okay, this is great information and I eat berries every morning on my raw oatmeal. But some doctors would say that because I had high cholesterol and have one stent, now I am on statins and have low cholesterol, I should still eat no nuts or avocado. So which is it? Does avocado contribute to or reduce cholesterol. The problem I am finding on a whole plant food diet with no added fats or oil at all is that I have lost too much weight. Nuts and avocado would really help out here!
I wish i had the problem of losing too much weight. I don't understand how the people here can go on these diets and stay on them. I can do anything for a while, but after a while I see some meat, or candy, soda, coffee .. .and though they are less and less of my life I still crave them every once in a while.
I once was told by a raw fruitarian that fat and carbs should never be mixed. From this video, I can now add an extra layer of understanding to the equation: a fatty food that doesn't contain fiber makes us hit sugar spikes. Fatty and fibrous food can be mixed with carbs (to which Dr. Michael Greger would add 'complex carb'!).
Yeah, but what is the insulin spike with the fish absent the carbs?
really liked this one thank you
So eating some high antioxidant fruit as a dessert regardless of the food choices always a good thing?
Does that mean good foods can cancel out bad foods?
@@user-je7pp2wg3m or bad foods drag good foods down ;-)
Videos commendable but some ads are lengthy I ll try to Cope.
In one study of 116 diabetic patients, 1 gram of berberine per day lowered fasting blood sugar by 20%, from 7.0 to 5.6 mmol/L (126 to 101 mg/dL), from diabetic to normal levels (13).
Wowzers
The main problem I have with this is that there's only one study listed here that followed the insulin curve with a non-animal protein. Since that study was done with peanuts, which are high in fiber, it confuses the picture on the protein effect. A good study to evaluate this would use isolated proteins. They could compare pea protein to whey protein, taken along with white bread. (They could also used hydrolyzed beef protein instead of, or in addition to the whey) this would give us more information about whether it's the protein or the food.
I think the idea is that plant sources of protein contain other components that are beneficial whereas animal based proteins are devoid of these beneficial components. So let's say the study was done using an isolated plant based protein and it also caused a spike. The conclusion would be to NOT consume concentrated protein sources.
I don't understand.. what I need is a comparison with an addition of plant based protein, and how that is affecting the insulin spike.. cause I assume of course an addition of any sort of food will spike the insulin response, the question is which will spike it higher - the plant based or the animal protein.
I don't understand so we need to consume red wine with no alcohol and avocado?
So we have to not eat any sugar or carbs with the meat!
Rather no meat with the carbs.
Meat is protein, body can convert protein into glucose, so eat low carb low protein or better ditch the carbs and eat low protein
is non alcoholic red or white wine good for us when following a wfpb diet? please answer
But my milkshake brings all the girls to the yard.
I can teach you, but I have to charge.
I can see your on it, you want me to teach thee techniques that freaks these boys, it can't be bought, just know that thieves get caught, watch if your smart...
Spartan K but but... Mines better than yours, damn right, it's better than yours. (I use Soya milk bitch)
Aren't those meatshakes?
meal??? or meat???
Realigning our eating habits with our physiological needs. Now that's an idea!
So what happens to insulin response with wonderbread and jam? Surely insulin is increased by adding even wholefood jam. You didn't answer the naturally following question! Great video though I learnt new stuff, subbed
Would you please advice on Curcummin's dose-dependent liver toxicity according to this study "Pharmacokinetics prediction and drugability assessment of diphenylheptanoids from turmeric (Curcuma longa L)."
I eat everything! I have never been obese, fat or else, I eat well and portion my food to my satisfaction but I think our bodies need a well balanced diet that includes fruits, veggies, meats and grains that provide good fats. Our minds are more dangerous to our bodies than our diets. If you eat to feel well and be healthy then you will be. Just be conscious of your choices.
People need to stop getting triggered and do some research in Dr. Greger website before drawing conclusions. He has videos on EVERYTHING(almost), he has interpreted studies with your so holly "clean" diet of organic meat and broccoli, organic fish , organic chicken, all your concerns and "counterpoints" have been adressed in the past, it's just that, you are basing all Dr. Greger's work and experience in just one video out thousands that he has. Cheers
Bacon double cheese burger with a large coke followed by a nice smoke and death, infinitely preferable to chewing on watery green veg.
Since I lack accessibility to these studies, can you tell me why meats, eggs and cheese are paired with starchy veggies or grains? For instance, I do not get an insulin spike from eating 4 chicken wings (baked with skin); however, when I pair them with a starch or grain, my insulin spikes. Can you research the effects and affects of just plain meat, eggs, and cheese without pairing with starch? Also, how many grams of protein are measured in these studies per meal?
how do you check your insulin spike tho at home? i think what you mean is blood sugar
János Harcsa, You are correct, checking an insulin spike is not done at home, it is my blood glucose which does not rise... in fact, if anything, insulin, in the situation I presented appears to remain the same based upon the fact that my blood sugars do not rise or lower;moreover, if they are 120 when I eat the chicken, they remain between 110 - 120 2 hours later; furthermore, I need to check c-peptides to accurately check insulin spikes. Thank you for questioning my wording (e.g. someone is paying attention, nice to see a reaction). BTW; the body generates about 30 grams +- 5% of natural insulin per meal to maintain blood glucose levels, and it begins when you start to smell food. Thank you for questioning my perspective János Harcsa.
What about a whole baked potato with chicken? I assume mashed potatoes would cause a much greater spike since it's not a whole food?
I would like to know what happens to these spikes when low amounts of carbohydrates are consumed. From what I've observed socially, most health-conscious people agree that refined and processed carbs are to be avoided. However, most of these people are more likely to believe the paleo/keto diet where carbohydrates are restricted. It seems that most of the information given in this video and the prior video combine meats and carbohydrates. Therefore, I think many people would use the potato/rice as a scapegoat and claim that the refined carbs are the issue.
For the record, I subscribed to this channel to get nutrition facts as the channel name implies and while I understand what you are trying to accomplish, I have some questions and reservations regarding how much nutrition facts we are seeing. It is no wonder why people remain unhealthy, because most of the information presented is slanted toward promoting agendas, which there is nothing wrong with promoting an agenda, I just want to view ALL the nutritional facts when they are presented. I have had enough of each group or respective industry (dairy, meat, vegetable, medical, etc.) presenting free information that contains partial knowledge. Where is the whole enchilada (i.e. an analogy). It is no wonder I have had to spend 5 months researching nutrition and it looks like I will have spend more time in research to get all the facts, then decipher truth from hyperbola.
I agree. Even as a vegan myself I find this channel very biased.
What if you eat beans with an animal protein. Does it also blunt the insulin response?
Why are they measuring insulin spikes and not blood sugar spikes?
Whole plant fats are soo important! Can whole plant fas help hormonal imbalance?
Possibly but for hormonal imbalance I suggest looking into the internal cleanse by Blessed Herbs or even just their Colon Cleanse. Follow that cleanse to the T by following the best option and you will get stated on the right track. Also be sure o follow a whole foods plant based diet as best you can.
Thank you I will look into it!!
+Kawaiiplush14 For sure. Good luck. :)
Why not do a comparison graph of meat without sugar or carbs and meat plus fats?
Because that has already been shown to wreck your arteries and not be healthy so why would anyone eat that way?
Tell that to the people thriving on a ketogenic diet.
Every "body" is different... Id like to see some studies looking at long term health effects of being long term keto.
Mediterranean diet includes fish and has been shown to be one of the healthiest diets. Fish is also thought to contribute to the high life expectancy in Japan.
Not any longer due to Fukushima
Not really. The videos have shown that to be a canard and that the higher vegetable intake is more likely protective. This was in response to the idea that olive oil is healthy when it isn't, so meat would also apply given the higher rate of obesity in Greece, highest in Europe. The higher incidence of fish in Japanese diet is linked to depression and may be an indicator in Japan's high suicide rate. Japanese are thin but have a higher diabetes rate than USA. The combination of the tuna + potato graphs in this video show why. Same thing with tuna + rice in another video. It's the fish causing the problems through the body's overreaction to its presence. Avoid the fish and you don't have the reaction. Simple.
Karl Laur a Mediterranean diet with much fish and olive oil is not a healthy diet. It's just healthier than others because it does contain little meat and no dairy. In contrast to what other European countries are consuming :way too much meat and dairy. Dairy is probably the most harmful, Harvard even eliminated it of their food recommendation plate. Others recommend it because of the strong food industry lobbyists. healthesolutions.com/harvard-declares-dairy-not-part-of-healthy-diet/
Wing Wu Wang exactly! That was what I was trying to say
Why does alcohol increase the fat in your blood?
I didn't get it.. so is a vegan smoothie after workout bad for me?....
wait but was strawberry jam tested, or just berries? because even an all fruit strawberry jam is not the same as fresh, whole strawberry
Isn't that a bit like comparing apples with oranges? As far as I know were the servings that led to the insulin index mentioned in the video, of the same caloric amount. Let's say they gave them 200g of white bread, meaning 500 Kcal. One egg weighing about 50g equals only 75 kcal. You would need 6.6 eggs to result in 31% of the insulin spike that our white bread evokes, means :
You would need 21eggs to result in the insulin spike of 200g white bread. What a heavy breakfast!
If You want to bring insulin levels down and thereby the risk of diabetes there's nothing better than keto diet and intermittent fasting.
In my previous response questioning the research methods used in this and most studies, I worded my critique incorrectly, which, János Harcsa, questioned. Read my response to János Harcsa, for corrected wording. Also, since the body secretes insulin every time a meal is eaten, insulin will spike autonomously, sometimes not in the right proportion depending upon you personal pancreas health
Uh... why didn't you show the insulin spike when you leave carbs out altogether and just eat meat? My guess: because you get no insulin spike at all... and the fatter, redder the meat the better. And since plants and nuts interfere with vitamin and mineral absorption, and since we can make all the glucose we need from fat and protein, what's the reason to eat any carbs or plants at all?
then how come people on ketosis have lower insulin? despite modertly high animal protein?
What about avocado oil? My daughter in law cooks with it and when I eat there I feel sick. Is it the small amount of. Chicken or the oil she cooks it in?
His daughter all oils are bad
@@daveforgot127 some more than others. i think none of them should instantly make you feel sick after a meal though
maybe she is poisoning you? hope not.
wtf i hate meat now
Mark Savidge do those movies have much info on the insulin raising property of. meat eaten after potatoes are eaten ?
What The Health is popular, and includes info by the plant-based physicians.
If you eat a Raw Food diet (or mostly raw diet) all of this is avoided.
The raw food diet is silly. Many foods are better digested or contain more poly-nutrients if they are cooked. Some raw food, like raw eggs or milk, can kill you.
With all due respect, it sounds like you have no idea what raw food is. No raw foodist that I know eats any dairy, none. As for poly-nutrients, the old saying "more is not necessarily better" applies. Please do some reading before you make a crash statement like "The raw food diet is silly". Every living creature on Earth other than humans eats only raw food and drinks only water. As for Many foods are better digested cooked, that is because it takes your body a few days to adjust to "clean" food, once you do, cooked foods will not digest very well. I know this from over 17 years of being totally raw and studying the subject.
Homo sapiens and other extinct Homo species have been cooking their food for about 1.9 million years. We are humans, not cows or any other kind of animal. It good that you and your friends don't eat raw eggs or milk, but that is quite a popular fad now days. If raw food works for you, fine, but it is just another fad diet. There is no science behind the extravagant claims of raw foodists. The key to good health is eating a whole plant based diet. Cooking some foods actually increases its nutritional value.
www.livescience.com/26278-risks-raw-vegan-diet.html
Well, humans have been smoking for a long time, thousands if not millions of years, that does not make it a good thing. But, to each his or her own, I sincerely wish you all the best.
I'm allergic to all dairy, even A2 cow and A2 goat, BUT have you heard of Celebrity Carol Alt? She has been a regular on FOX News, she's a Raw Food Author now, former Top Model, Looks very healthy & youthful and vey outspoken that SHE eats Raw Meat (Tar tar I think it's called) and Raw Cheese. So you are wrong. There are different forms of Raw diet. YOU just so happened to follow at Raw Vegan diet. www.lifeextension.com/magazine/2007/11/report_carolalt/page-01
So after bombarding us with all that, what are your suggested meal plans?
Hi boillusa latest Japanese research : to stop insulance resistance, : eat your veggies first , then protein , then carbs last , in that order , I don't like doing that, but it works very well for me . Hope this helps best of health to you.
Check out Dr Greger's daily dozen for evidence based practical nutrition guidance.
Not sure why Peter Attia doesn’t care about those studies
Neat-o
All of the plots are useless without showing the error bars.
Haha! I hope this shoots more holes in the whole "chocolate milk is the perfect recovery food" marketing non-sense that has taken hold lately. The inflammation response of drinking a milk shake a half day after intense cycling sends inflammatory markers through the roof!
But what if I eat fries with my mashed potatoes?
Don't peanuts contain a fungus that may lead to liver cancer?
Khu NoPie That fungus is not limited to peanuts, it's also found in meat, corn, figs, milk.
The threat is not big in the 1st world due to food regulation standards but it's a bigger problem in the 3rd world.
To minimize the growth of this fungus at home you should keep your food in dry places or in refrigerator and look out for mold growth.
If you do a in depth research, eveything that you eat will eventually kill you. EVERYTHING!
In fact, the fist cause of death is living.
People who drink water die.
Yes. AFLATOXIN in peanuts.

Why the addition of animal protein ... why not the addition of anything that needs insulin to digest?
You keep going on and on about the same things year in and year out, but there is no really good answer for understanding what is going on.
How do you want to be taken as a respectable scientists when you are quoting researchers done in 1989 and even worse, riddled with bias...Current reality in scientific research dictates you only use researchers done 5-7 years and if older than that then its because research in the area is limited. Also source of journal published matters alot!
hmmm... no "Until now" moment... :'(
omg an insulin spike! Maybe the body releases insulin for a reason, and we shouldn't be afraid of it.
I like to keep it simple I just study centenarians they say eat potatoes and corn and move around they don't read charts to make it past 100.
So Its seems the Germans had it right with the Black forest cake?!
aovint63 how??
The recipe calls for cherries and black berries.
TL;DW: Eat plants.
All the studies on cooked food diets is exercise in futility.
Ok then, I'll skip the burger and just have fries. It'll take a whole lot fries to get full 'though.
Sorry, but sometimes I just hate this guy. I've been watching these videos for years and none of it adds up. On my own I eat mostly plant based now, but occasionally go off the path and havre a soda, or a drink, or cake or ice cream. I don't really know what this all means. Human brains are linear, and these things that he is talking about are multi-variable with a lot of complex interactions, yet he sounds confident like he understands what he is saying and it makes sense, but he never just says - eat this, don't eat that, or have this meal for dinner, etc. All these experiments do not add up. I don't think anyone understands how human digestion works, and we are all genetically a little different too.
,.
The youtube Vegans are dropping like flies. They are tired of being sick and tired caused by the vegan diet. Eat some fish people and feel better.
SEK4110 Susan hahahahahaha... good one
So yeah, avoid carbs, Just eat meat
You say MEAT but you mean protein. Why do you not show us how our boddies is effected by high amount of plant based protein?! Is it the amount of protein NOT where it comes from?!
Orrelion I agree. I have wondered if plant protein is digested different than animal protein. And if has a different effect on outcome. This may be obvious to some but not to me. Am I missing something?
Peace and love ❤️
Orrelion he has a lot of videos on this just check his website. short answer is no plant protein does not have this effect.
Sure it doesn't.
Sure it is.
Orrelion thank you. I will read more about this.
Peace and love ❤️
100 is still a normal range of insulin.
I've gone vegan off and on for about a year now and I've had my farthest stretch of pure veganism for 2 months. It's been a bit of a tough road, but I think I'm finally making it happen. I don't crave beef tacos or chicken burritos anymore and my waistline shows it!
eder corrales
You can still eat wild caught fish while being an ethical vegan.
Fish are sentient and feel pain -- in fact their nociceptors (pain receptors) are thought to be more sensitive than most mammals :S I don't really want to get into the ethics though.... I want to stress that in relation to human health fish contain mercury, PCBs, plastics, and other toxins (as well as saturate fat and cholesterol which Dr. Greger is not a huge fan of). The ocean is one giant ecosystem and she is very sick :( Eating something that is "less toxic" is still toxic and will cause an inflammatory response. You will certainly never hear Dr. Greger promoting eating fish!
Not sure why you felt the need to tell the original poster that wild caught fish is still okay, but just thought I'd let you know that many would disagree. Eder Corrales, happy to hear you are doing well! Keep up the great changes, it gets easier and easier :)
Also, the video explained that meat and fish caused an excessive insulin spike, overworking the pancreas.
Have a gastric sleeve, you can't eat meat even if you wanted to because of the pain you get.
@@DelectableDays No, that's absolutely wrong. Vegan means NO animal products (including honey, wool, silk, leather, fur, etc.) no matter how sourced. www.vegansociety.com/go-vegan/definition-veganism
Hmm. So the benefits of exercise are ampliefied by the high antioxidant content of plant based eating. Love it.
Greger..
postprandial:
during or relating to the period after dinner or lunch
occurring after a meal
In these last two videos I don't see an example of veggies being included into a meal with meat or starch for comparison to see how insulin and inflammation may be blunted by their addition. Why primarily meat and/or starch? Who the hell is going to eat tuna fish with mash potatoes anyways?
One of the studies shown in the previous video does compare adding vegetables to meals. Another compares salad. Added oil(fat) was also compared in both these studies, which was found to significantly reduce blood sugar and insulin spikes. Probably explains why almond butter combined with Wonder Bread lowered blood sugar spike.

NGC6144 Thanks for sharing those articles. They show exactly what I expected: when having a balanced meal, animal protein does NOT cause an unhealthy insulin spike.
I'm pretty sure the insulin spike that comes with "animal protein" and carbs, is easily explained by the lack of fiber. Fiber, of course, regulates the absorption rate, and thereby attenuates the insulin spike and the glycemic response. So, it's not that "vegetable protein" is better... It's just that vegetables come with fiber. Very simple.
By contrast, what this presentation actually shows is that fish and chips is an unhealthily balanced meal. Don't think we needed charts to demonstrate that point.
NGC6144 tuna fish sandwich maybe ??? And he mentioned adding berries.
The credit goes to Davey. Anyways, from what I understand and I'm not advocating this diet, high fat and animal protein(Ketogenic) diets don't spike insulin and blood sugar like what Dr. Greger is pushing in this video. It's when high fat is combined with carbs that sugar/insulin spike, not the protein per se. But, with animal protein comes with fat, especially fish. This is typical of Dr. Greger to produce a video that isn't really objective enough just to push don't eat meat.
akeating04043 I thought that was obvious
More proof that eating a WFPB diet is. BEST. Thanks Dr G!!
I used to really enjoy avocados, but since I've gotten used to eating low fat, they are now too fatty for me. The thought of eating a whole avocado by myself makes me feel queasy. I'd have to share it, so it's not as much fat in a single meal.
The other thing keeping me from eating them is that they are usually not ripe and it's hard to judge when they are ripe enough to eat and not miss the timing and have them go bad. And sometimes they get squished or something and they go bad before they are even properly ripe. You can't even really plan to buy avocados for a meal that way because you never know if you'll be able to get ripe ones at the store or how long they will take to ripen if they aren't ripe already.
Avocados are one of the most frustrating fruit to buy.
Very informative, thank you :)
Love the "mic drop" at the end. LOVE IT!
Excellent, concise and clear video!
Hmm i have a great idea eat more fat and skip the carbs
How can one doctor put out so much useful information in so little time, and speak slowly and take pauses in between points, no less? I feel like I just watched one of his one-hour lectures.
why not just... eat non inflammatory foods?
is the combination of sugar water and protein in sweetened soy milk similarly hazardous in terms of insulin boost, or does this only apply to animal protein? is drinking soy milk with potato's likewise a risk?
