I would take exception to Rich's comment at the end where he says something to the effect that his podcasts are only as good as the content his guests bring to the discussion. I've been listening to him for years, and I have yet to hear any other podcast with such an exceptional host! He's well emersed in the subject matter his guests bring to the table and he's very skilled and pulling out all the great nuggets from those guests...and he LET'S THEM TALK! So many podcasters seem more interested in interjecting their own stuff into the discussion rather than seducing the really meaningful discussion out of their guests. Stellar combination!
Absolutely agree!!
look into Lex Fridman he is also quite wonderful - Rich and Lex top 2
And so chill and relaxing to listen to... like music, his podcast is creating a soothing atmosphere.. great to listen to while u are at home or doing some work. Also good to listen to while in the car.
I totally agree. Rich is a fantastic host and interviewer!
Couldn't agree more. He's not posing, not acting as if he knew everything and he's always present with his guests. He (and his guests of course) changed my life.
Rich Roll is the most professional, articulate, knowledgeable host.
Thanks for another informative conversation.
Around 7-8 years ago I came across a tweet from Dan recommending an article featuring this amazing athlete called Rich Roll - from memory, the article was titled something along the lines of ‘the balance is between the extremes’ - this lead changed my life and I soon found myself joining the ‘school of Rich’. Among so many words of wisdom over the years, the number one lesson Dan has taught me is to ‘eat beans’ and since hearing this lesson, I eat black beans, mixed beans, indeed any kind of beans each and every day. Gracias to both of you fine ambassadors of health and wisdom
One of my favourite guests of the podcast. His work on the blue zones is something I return to regularly, and it has made a meaningful difference to the way I live my life.
funny seeing you here
It's been awhile since I've checked in and I'm so glad that I did as Dan has been one of my favorite guests of yours. He's so knowledgeable and inspiring to listen to. I wound up buying his Blue Zone books after listening to him on your podcast. I never would've known about him if wasn't for you. You are very humble Rich, but Dan was absolutely correct when he said that you are doing a tremendous service through these deep and in-depth conversations. So kudos to both of you for the amazing work that you're doing.
Dan is such an interesting guest. He is so knowledgeable, and capable of sharing the information.
Dan: I think that people would like you and Dr Michael Greger would interview each other. Both of you 2 are Truth & Power!
My doctor retired and left me with six words, Exercise, Lose Weight, Eat Whole Food. Seems that is the essence of Blue Zones. Good advice. Keep it simple.
Love the education around the history of food! Each podcast with the two of you is better than the last! Its true that cooking plant based for your friends is the best way to turn them on to the lifestyle :)
Love this! Ordered the book today! Plant based since 2019 and have never looked back. Look forward to getting to experience some new recipes
Thanks Rich, this talk is a gem. I appreciate your humble skill at steering the conversation.
After it was published, and adopted a plant based diet-never looked back either. So appreciative of your work and also that you have been so kind to share your discoveries so completely with us.
I agree with Dan's sentiments about the Rich Roll podcast near the end of the interview. This podcast has been a game-changer for me and many others. I spread the word whenever the opportunity is presented! Thank Rich!!
As I was listening to Dan’s interview, Amazon delivered Dan’s new book to my front door. It’s beautifully done. Can’t wait to try some new recipes. Blue Zones Kitchen was also beautifully done. Thank you for having Dan on your show.
The Kraft guy "atoning for his sins"....that's so funny. GREAT interview.
As a 66 year old brought up on the 70's consumerism and massive marketing campaigns, I am gradually, making mistakes along the way, moving to a whole foods plant based lifestyle. The biggest thing is understanding it takes time to recover your taste buds, and restart tasting - and the incredible taste of a simple whole food
I went from 45lbs overweight to keto to weight loss to feeling like s&it every day and labwork that'll scare even the most chill docs. Switched to wfpb, with a tad of fish but upped my fiber game to 40g+/day, and at 60, I'm a new person. Labs stellar, feel great, BMI at 24.3 and NEVER "hungry". I create and cook EVERY meal, I still like my martinis, eat lite Jarlsburg and I eat to my BMR. But the real secret I have found is also DAILY activity with 3-4 days of intense stuff a week.
So right! Thanks for reminding me.
I was born in 1951. By of the 70s I was in college. My mother's father was a farmer & she seldom ever fed up vegetables. I don't remember salads being offered. I never had spinach, swiss chard, bell peppers, cauliflower, brocolli, cabbage, etc. I didn't know what brussel sprouts were. We ate terribly. My father died of CVD. My mother of renal failure. My sister has psychiatric problems that I believe are partly due to diet. For whatever reason, I decided to become a nurse. I started eating healthy & @ 72 have no health problems except for Raynaud's. I have lived in a subarctic region for 40 years.
Yuuup😊
Wonderful podcast! Thank you both 😊🌱
I am over the moon excited about this food company!!! I see so many plant-based meals made with cruddy oils and we are so in need of delicious plant-based meals. Of course it would be fabulous if everybody could take the time and prepare them at home but for people with busy lives that want to live their best life to have an option like this will be incredible!!
This was the best podcast I’ve seen of Rich Roll’s. ( I watched many) It was so interesting and I even followed along in the book as Dan described his journey…the people he met and restaurants. Didn’t know there were Blue Zone start up cities. Dan Buettner is enthusiastic about what he is doing, and I agree with him - the key to liking food is in the sauce. Rich asked great questions which opened up a great discussion. Nice work!
Love what Dan said regarding Rich at the end And Im buying the blue zone book! I can’t be any more appreciative of this podcast and all the knowledge distilled here.
This is the best Rich Roll cast I’ve watched. Sending Dan’s book to all my family members and best friends. I’m an old friend of Brian Wansink.
I gave the book to my team for Christmas! (Kept one for myself as well 😊)
Excellent interview! Thank you to both of you!👍🌈
Wonderful talk. I'm so grateful to both Dan Buettner and Rich Roll for the incredible work they're doing bringing sound and evidence based knowledge into the world. I feel I am making much better health choices in my life in part because of the information they share. As I was listening to this podcast I was making the potato leek soup from the Blue Zones website. Came out great! Thank you!!
Love this, very informative, thank you
Fabulous, educational and entertaining podcast - a must for food and life enthusiasts 👍🥰
Amazing man, Dad is! Inspiring and heartfelt interview. I learned a lot. Thank you for interviewing this wonderful guest.
Beautiful conversation. Read the original blue zones book last week...reading the 2023 update now. Thanks to both of you for the work you do...cheers!
Very interesting and very high quality content. Excellent thanks.
One of the best podcasts you’ve done. Love the E.B. White quote at the end!
DAN IS A LEGEND !!!!
This is so inspirational n a blueprint for action.
thanks Rich! great job
Can’t wait to snag Dan’s new book!
Thank you 🙏🏼
Thank you for the knowledge
Creating a Blue Zone……genius!!! Yes!!!!
When we talk about the deleterious effects of the western diet, we have two living cultures who have sadly and rapidly succumbed to western diseases in less than a century, that being native Americans and Polynesians. Both have epidemic numbers of obesity and diabetes not seen in the last century.
Organic ingredients and wild foods foraging are a part of my lifestyle, too! Yes to drinking fresh spring water!
Watch out poisonous mushrooms
I love this episode 🤩😀❤
The blue zone research is the ultimate aid in decision making for people who wnat to research their nutrition. Online quacks can give very poor advice and scientific studies can be biased and flawed. Meanwhile, a bunch of people living well into their 90s in the hills of Sardinia with 0% alzheimers is much more interesting.
Good point. They eat meat and cheese too!
@@Samuel-bu7xr doesn't mean they wouldn't do better without it, there's always room for improvement
@@blackmarketarmy doesn't mean they'd be as healthy with it's exclusion either John.
@@Samuel-bu7xr the best analysis of this can be seen with the 7th day adventist blue zone. The ones in that group that don't eat meat or cheese do better than the others
@@blackmarketarmy oh man, that's such a weak analysis.
I can't be the only one who is impressed how quickly Rich can grow a beard. I was just watching the episode with Kyle Gillett from 9 days ago and he is clean shaven!
Another great conversation! Grateful for the work you both do. 🙏
Miami is great and Fl has the best Governor!
🤣😂
I am so looking forward to seeing Dan's Blue Zone products on store shelves in early 2023! I am going to make a point of trying every one of them!
Great podcast Rich and Dan!
HaiTai Longevity is in the process of making them now actually.
Be careful. The food manufacturers may have altered the food with lots of salt & sugar to get you addicted. It is processed food & may have color, flavorings, & preservatives as well.
Can't wait for the chef Babette episode 💗 she's my idol
Loved this podcast, very educational. I really enjoyed the history information to add to what I have done. History of food has been my main focus in my WFPB journey. I think it is important to educate everyone then let them decide how they want to live. The option to nudge people is a step too far and resembles tactics used in eastern Europe used by government.
@1.16 I got excited when I heard about El Gallo in Asheville, NC, but sadly, a quick Google search shows it is permanently closed.
Loved this episode! I can't wait to eat at some of those restaurants in L.A. soon. If you have not tried arepas, I do highly recommend it. It's on the book :)
Great video!
I'm so looking forward to "The Blue Zones" food in markets!!
Bought a few copies for stocking stuffers! Remember planting a garden is like printing money.
The massive change in the food agricultural anagement throughout the islands has left locals without the availability of their natural foods, thus diet.
You should try épicerie Radis in Québec,île d’Orléans. Vegan plant base Italian and so beautiful
Excellent episode, will look up Dan’s other appearances on the podcast.
There used to be a VEG in the Philly suburbs. I was fortunate enough to go there a couple times. Unfortunately it closed. There was a picture on the wall with the owners and T. Colin Campbell.
I early on got your “Blue Zone” book & never resumed my SAD diet. What an amazing influence on my life.🎉 Thank you so much!
Love your interview. Would you consider interviewing food investigators - Nina Teicholz and Belinda Fettke? Also Dr. Zoe Harcombe.
That would be pointless. They are just science deniers.
We are Pickleballers too! I’m trying move towards eating more plant based.
Not just in the US. I'm a recent fan from the UK. Wish we could have some Blue Zone projects here!
I love the RRP and like Dan Buettner, but I do take mini offense to Dan speaking on the “cultured” people in Miami being from California and New York. I’m not sure he’s lived here long enough to have any true appreciation for the people who are actually from Miami.
Love to know when The Blue Zones Food Company foods will be coming available!
I wish Miami wasn’t in Florida
i want to know more about red zones - hong kong has the longest average life span per capita in the world & is the largest consumer of red meat per capita in the world.
We cook and eat at home, outside mostly, weather permitted. We grow our own foods and use the local farmers markets in the winter, when needed. The Raw, cooked vegan restaurant, lasted a year in Arkansas. It closed long before the pandemic! A young woman owned and operated it with a small staff, I remember. I would eat there once a week for lunch ONLY. Vegan, vegetarian foods are not popular or even desired in Arkansas. We drink and prepareourfoodswithfreshspringwater, since 1991. No illnesses here, plus we exercise & get our sleep, .......................... cooking and eating at home!
Hi Rich! My name is Colin McDaniel and I'm from Fort Worth, Tx, so i loved that Dan mentioned, briefly, the fascinating and rather rapid expansion and cultural shift that my city is experiencing as we develop further into one of the nations most vibrant and exciting major cities. We have beautiful architecture and history here with a vivacious nightlife and culinary melting pot of cuisine influence from all corners of the world.
I just discovered a short video/bio-doc about you early this week. I am ashamed to say that until that moment, I had no idea who you were. In the last four days, I have been listening and absorbing your podcast and it has been a most enlightening and transformative experience. Though it is not the same as your story, my story up to about two years ago was similar in many ways.
I am 38 years old and I grew up, right here, in Tarrant County. I come from a large (7 member) household and I have two very dedicated, supportive and loving parents and 4, now actually 3, wonderful and successful siblings. Unfortunately, in 2020, my brother, my brother, Thomas, passed away suddenly at the age of 38, dying from the accumulated affects of alcoholism. A battle that I still battle with, though I haven't had a drink in 18 months. I am also a recovered/recovering drug addict.
I have been blessed and dare i say, privileged, in my life in many ways. I come from a good family, in a great neighborhood, in an amazing city. I went to private school for most of my upbringing and am a proud Alumni of a well respected and fairly exclusive preparatory academy. Through this privileged life, in which i had zero contribution to, I made many poor choices. My father didn't come from money. In fact, he came from a broken and abusive life of poverty. As the youngest of five, I had the honor of having a role model that very few get the opportunity to have. My dad is my hero. He sacrificed himself, his dreams and im sure plenty of blood sweat and tears, to give myself, my brothers and my sister, the best life he possibly could. We didn't have a lot of money, but my father worked very hard and still managed to put us all through a private school education. That education was his gift to us. He never had, in the past, many tangible things, but a huge heart and desire to give us the opportunity to make a successful life for ourselves.
So I have no excuse for the choices i made, that lead to the results I got. I am the youngest and I have always been the black sheep. Where my siblings and my dad excelled in academia, with high marks and IQs, I was never really interested in school. I am 6'3 and in high school i was a star athlete and a musician, though my true passion has always been art.
Through my lack of dedication to my schoolwork, though I still graduated salutatorian, I began running in the wrong circles of influence. Because I didn't come from a wealthy family, I never felt like i fit in with all my rich classmates. I wasn't naturally a talented athlete either, I had to work two or three times harder than everyone else, but through that desire to compete, came a very dark and oppressive mental inability to relinquish control. Everything I did, with the exception of academia, I had to be the absolute best. I don't know for certain, that I was born a natural leader, but I cultivated the personality and ability to become a great leader. I was trustworthy and loyal, though I was also a perfectionist and refused to allow anyone to do anything when I, arrogantly, thought I could do it better. This clashed heavily with the humility that I was taught to have, growing up in a very repressive and, honestly, terrifying cult sect of the Christian church.
I began with smoking weed, like many young teenagers. As I accumulated a notoriety as a "bad boy" my drug and alcohol abuse ramped up to eleven. By the time I graduated, I had managed to alienate my family, lose the respect of my father, destroy my body physically, lose my scholarships and get arrested for DUI. I was hopelessly addicted to heroine, booze and what may be deemed as deviant behavior. I didn't know who I had become, but I hated him and that lead to further self sabotage.
9/11 happened my senior year of high school. With the lifestyle I was hiding/attempting to hide and having lost my athletic scholarships, I fell into a deep depression. For two months after i graduated, I continued to abuse drugs and alcohol, though I rarely left my bedroom. Then one day i broke and I just knew I had to get out of this city if I were to ever right the ship.
In July of 2002, I joined the United States Marine Corps and In September I found myself in boot camp, fighting the hardest i had ever fought against anything. Of course the training was difficult, but my withdrawals from copious heroine intake the previous 18 months was almost unbearable. I managed to fight my way through and graduated with honors to join the ranks of the few and the proud, having successfully kicked heroine for good.
I had a wonderful career in the eight years I served my country. I flew up the ranks and achieved a lot skill sets, though almost all of them nontransferable to the civilian sector. I would have made the Corps my career. It was my intention, as it was the only time I felt accepted, respected, valued and unjudged. The community, the brotherhood, was unlike anything. The Marine Corps quite literally saved my life. I spent nearly my entire 8 years deployed having fought in most of the prolific Iraqi Freedom battles. The invasion, Ramadi and Fallujah. I also spent a good amount of time operating out of Camp Lemonier in Djibouti, doing missions in the surrounding Horn of Africa nations with MAR-SOC. Needless to say, all of these experiences, while rewarding and fulfilling, took a very heavy toll on my mental health and my marriages.
When I decided to separate from the Corps in 2010, I was a broken man. I still am today, in many ways. I have PTSD, depression, anxiety and a form of mania that displays in the form of hyper vigilance, which may sound productive and is at times, but if very debilitating. As a result, I don't sleep much, have a difficult time maintaining or even having relationships of any kind, I cant sit with my back to a door and my head is constantly on a swivel to maintain situational awareness. Its very difficult to turn off, but through years of therapy I have learned small practices to identify and put to rest attacks.
After the Corps, I enrolled and went to the University of North Texas, go Mean Green, haha, and got may degree in Hospitality Management. I then worked in bars and restaurants until April 2021. As a recovered/recovering alcoholic and drug addict, I'm sure it isn't hard to glean how I fell back into a destructive cycle of abuse.
The hard part of this story is that I am also a very damaged survivor of sexual assault. As a young Marine I was abducted and brutally gang raped by four men for two and half days. To this day, I have no idea why they allowed me to live. Until twelve months ago, I had never told anyone about this. I had completely detached and repressed most of the facts of this and finally had a break through in therapy. I cried for three days straight, but now I have the ability, regardless of how painful it is to recall, to tell a bit of my story without falling back into a place of self destruction.
Through abusing alcohol and drugs again, I destroyed every good thing in my life, once again and in 2019, I attempted to kill myself. Then again, twice, in 2020 and spent the next year constantly thinking about suicide and losing the will to go on.
That's when I discovered yoga. It immediately brought results. I could focus and my body began to heal. I slowly lost the desire to drink alcohol and quit cold turkey from cocaine and cigarettes. I began to journal and started drawing and painting again. Things we good and I felt like the darkest part of the storm had past.
It had. I quit my job managing a bar in April 2021 and began art full time. I now run my very small, out of my home art studio and I have never been happier! Though happiness is fleeting and it comes only in waves, it is much better than the years of darkness and sorrow I have lived most of my adult through.
Then, in the summer of last year, I began the process of converting to plant based diet and as of August of 2022 I have been entirely plant based and it has produced amazing results, both mentally and physically. I believe that right now, after athletics, war, hundreds of broken bones, being stabbed and having a litany of health issues including two types of arthritis and an auto immune disease attacking my GI tract, I am in better shape than I have ever been. Even as a MAR-SOC member.
I love it and I am so grateful for you, the work you do and this podcast. I was just going through a low moment, feeling very isolated and alone. Then I heard your voice and I listened to your story. And I listened to the incredible wealth of knowledge you and your team have brought to the table through your honored guests on the show and I didn't feel so alone any more.
Once again, finding community has saved me. And for that, I must humble myself and say thank you.
I doubt we will ever meet, but I feel like I have known you for a very long time.
Keep doing what you are doing. Please? I'm sure it's a heavy load at times, but at least in my case, your actions, selflessness and willingness to provide this content truly impacted me and made a massive difference.
From what i have observed, you don't like to toot your own horn and I respect that. So I will do it for you. You are good man, a great host and interviewer and a true blessing to the peoples of this world.
I pray peace to you and yours!
Namaste
Ain't nobody reading all that
Thank you for your service, Colin McDaniel. I know we are free because you are selfless and brave. Much respect to you.
Can you please post the info for that Good Vibes restaurant? I'd like to try it but it's super difficult to find it. Thanks
Have the Blue Zone Kitchen, read it and really love the achievement. The recipes are well illustrated and descriptive. Have already made some of them. Very wonderful to have these healthy ways of living. It made me feel good to know I have a kitchen garden and am using what I can and what’s in season and thinking outside the box. I believe anyone can do this. Even a balcony you can grow greens in pots and get away from these processed foods that are killing us.
Yes😊😊😊
Read The Mayflower. There. Was an impaled head of a native American chief .. check the book..at the plantation dinner
They had fish ,different types of game , ducks. It sounds pretty good along with corn, beans and squash and cranberries..yumm
What a Beaut!
Another Blue Zone not identified or talked about are the traditional food cultures of the Pacific (including Australia). Traditional Oceanic diets are based on vegetables and fruit with minimal meat consumption. Traditionally in the Western Pacific (Vanuatu, Solomons, PNG, Fiji, Tonga & Samoa, etc.), people relied mainly on slow foods (a term I've heard used in Vanuatu) - things like root crops (e.g. taro and yam), seasonal fruits and nuts and supplemented by seafood. Traditional domesticated animals, like pig and chicken, are consumed but were mainly reserved for exchange/ceremony and were not consumed regular like they are now in the towns/cities. Post globalisation, the diet has shifted to Western processed/fast foods and unfortunately health in the region has declined.
Have Peter Roger's MD as a guest
Please
Anybody know for sure? I simply cannot digest legumes well but have less distress with long bean sprouts. Has anyone ever seen a REAL (not an intuitive interpretation from the auras of each) table comparing the nutrient breakdown of both, side by side. ?And while we are at it, just how do scientists identify how much of each vitamin and enzyme are in each variation? Can such things be isolated and measured?
Are there any "blue zones" that are far less plant-based eating? I have not heard of this.
I definitely want to read the book!
What about mushrooms ? I use mushrooms garlic and eggplant with tomatoes..also add hard tofu . What about coconut oil vs olive oil?
Beans equal gas.. also they contain carbs. Not practical to be full of gas🙄
The south is famous for barbeque
.no barbeque?? Jeez
Lived in San Diego and I love Mexican food. What about that?
Serve with red cabbage and walnut salad ☺️ totally vegetarian
In the 1860’ the Seventh Day Adventist were eating the “blue zone” diet, or better called the Heavenly diet….
So how do u spell the name of that stew?
Why is it countries with higher meat consumption such as Australia, Canada and France have the lowest CVD death rates and countries with very low meat consumption and low cholesterol levels such as Yemen, Syria and India have the highest CVD death rates?
I have started my plan to set up 'groups' in Retirement Villages and get TEAMS to follow the Modules I created )12 week plan....My website shows a little bit about it and I call them SUPER SENIORS. Thx for these you tubes....will follow and give feedback.
Love this interview but at 47:00 Dan is way off in answering Rich’s question about the main philosophical thread between abolishing slavery, temperance, women’s suffrage, and vegetarianism. It wasn’t enlightenment social evolution - it was Christianity.
Look up Harriet Tubman, William Lloyd Garrison, Frederick Douglass, Rev. William Metcalfe, Ellen G. White, Dr. John Kellogg - all of them played key roles in the abolitionist, temperance, women’s suffrage, and/or vegetarian movement in the US, and what do they all have in common? They were Christian.
Which isn’t that much of a shocker - we’re talking about America in the 19th century - most everyone was Christian of some sort.
The first thought related to Chinese women who live in Hawaii- the difference is in the air quality .Pollution in China shortens their life.
Did I miss it, or was there no discussion of cancer? Certainly not an easy subject to discus. The Japanese have traditionally enjoyed lower rates of cancer than most of us in the west. I recall reading a study where post war Japanese immigrants to the west coast, despite keeping many of their cultural traditions in tact, food, activity, etc., had increased cancer rates to that of Americans in less than a generation. The speculation was that it was environmental. Beyond that, I didn't read any subsequent studies on the subject.
The Happy Cow app is supposed to help locate vegan restaurants all over the country.
I do not want to be too particular about facts, but the man who developed the graham cracker plus promoted vegetarianism and temperance was Sylvester Graham, not Robert. He deserves proper credit.
That doesn't seem to match my searches. Are you sure it isn't Rev. Sylvester Graham? Can you share the link? It is important. You're right.
@@AndieSargeant Wikipedia. ;)
The rules I follow. Luckily, I love beans haha!
Has a Synergizer called Peotandim that's make you leave 180 years for 50 bucks
a forgiveable slip but detracting on first viewing, calories per gram protein is not 6 but as carbs. Gotta get the basics right.
Thank you. I thought it was wrong when I heard him say that but I forgot to follow up. A weird slip since I usually can't remember the calorie number but I remember that protein and carb calories are equal per gram.
I watched you yesterday thinking how bad your eyes are. Ok, I like you even if you are an alcoholic. Do you also measure my algorythm. About your eyes as much( vitamin A in the meat makes a miracle). After being vaccinated I nearly became blind, it went over moths and I must have got glasses. After eating meat, as being for months all over again sick I am healthy now, I don't eat much, my dogs got the most. But it is also the truth when I make myself a coffee it ends up most of it in a sink. I have wholly changed my diet, from time to time go back to what I like. Just check your glucose. You are good. I like your podcasts. I only write that Markus Jähn has something to read. I get stalk here in whatever I do going online. THANK YOU.
Looks like El Gallo in Asheville is permanently closed?!
There are so many sick people in our area of northwest Alabama is this possibly because they don’t eat plant based or the whole grains foods and eating less fish? Seems like our grocery stores here are full of junk foods and our towns are so sick with flu and sinus infections and covid and even RSV cases
Very interesting…. Always a good guest. However, I am a little discouraged that the vegan chefs and restaurants that are springing up tend to be way out of reach for most of us. I’m hoping for the cookbook that can bring good food to those of us who can’t afford these fancy expensive places and exotic ingredients
Just cook with beans. Beans can be added to any salad, for instance. I agree that many vegan cookbooks & restaurants are aimed at the rich, but ultimately - healthy vegan food is plant-rich poor people food (assuming you don't live in a food desert that is).
Eating the wu way By Steven Acuff
Any pauper may add prayer to their cooking or offering and it goes a long way to future health wisdom! (Can't wait to see Raghunatha Ray Cappo on the show again).
If you can afford fruits vegetables and grains, it's very easy to eat for less. Restaurants have high overhead. They have to pay staff. Restaurants can serve you the same thing you can in a market or pick off of a tree or dig up from the earth (as in a carrot). Actually all food that isn't the flesh of a creature is such a marvelous miracle that even God is attracted. The orange or apple is a creation of very expensive quality if you think about it. It has exquisite color, it's famous (who hasn't known a banana), it's power packed, and has the potency to reproduce. Those apple seeds each contain potentially how many more apples, when a tree grows from that teeny seed? "If one offers Me a leaf, a flower, a fruit, or water with love & devotion, I accept." Krishna in Bhagavad-Gita says this. So it takes time, it takes land, it takes transportation, and loads of personnel to get that fruit to the store, and it's in one sense priceless because nobody can create a fruit except God. But if one offers the food with prayer, it will give one abundance. I think fellow Americans should give up everything except prayer when it comes to this issue of long life. Hare Krishna friend. 🍃🍂🥕🍏🍉🍎🥦🍐
It’s great that we’re trying to make Americans eat healthier. But, uh, isn’t the problem largely that the food tastes too good? People who can’t switch to a whole, natural, plant foods diet largely won’t do so because they don’t know how to make their broccoli and potatoes taste better or as good as their chicken burger.
Restaurants don’t seem to be that much help. Food services don’t seem to be much help. It seems that if these food companies didn’t exist and if these food services didn’t exist and if this divine-tasting hyper-palatable vegan food didn’t exist, people’s taste buds could adapt to a potato and a broccoli stalk.
More food isn’t the answer. Restricting dietary choices to natural foods without too much messing around seems to be the way forward.
Anyone else have thoughts on this? I’d love to hear it. Thanks.
Is rich roll Slovenian?😊
Rich , forget the history ! Where are we going from here and what can we ALL do to fix it ?
The Garrison ration, Militia Law of 1775 and the special diet of 4000 calories. Was this the good lost American diet or was it just for a short time to make sure someone would win?
That is the darkest room ever
We could use you in South Texas (Edinburg, Pharr, McAllen). That’s an unhealthy place in need of change:)
What’s the truth about lectins on the gut ? is it dangerous ?
I just went to the cafeteria at the college I work at. I grabbed a to go box filled with chopped up raw fruits and veg. It weighed 1 pound and they charged me 10 bucks. My coworker got a string cheese, a Naked juice, and a flavored yogurt with granola in it. 6 bucks. Why. Just why.
Labor I guess, but it’s still not right.
Government subsidies on meat, dairy and eggs have a lot to do with this kind of pricing structure.
@@iamdebmiller Most plant foods are mono-crops scattered over the four corners of the globe - each with an enormous petrochemical and transport footprint adding to the cost. It also takes at least 10Kgs of plant matter to supply vaguely the same amount of nutrients as 1Kg of red meat further adding to the transport footprint. Meat, Eggs and Dairy are usually local.
@@LondonSteveLee When you figure in all the plants fed to animals the equation you mentioned above goes upside down. It takes about 18 pounds of grains fed to animals over their lifetime to generate one pound of flesh food that a person could eat in less than a day. A lot of people can be fed many meals with 18 pounds of grain compared with only one pound of flesh which can be gone in one meal. And all that grain which is fed to animals to create the poor ROI in feeding them has to be grown and transported to them. 18 to 1 is a worse ratio than the 10 to 1 ration you mentioned. Besides, I don't see how 1 pound of red meat has any important nutrients like fiber, vitamin C and flavonoids. So I am not sure where you are getting the idea that red meat has more nutrients than plants. Plant foods can be sourced locally and often are - think about local farmers markets. Meat, eggs and dairy are often transported long distances. Many animals are shipped, live, across entire oceans and continents. Many are transported for miles to reach slaughterhouses. Not all are local.
@@iamdebmiller If you feed them grains, cows can (and often are) grazed on natural wildlands or grass.
It's real cool and organized. Its genius. But let me tell you just fly to Brazil and you will figure out you are in a huge blue zone where everyone eats rice and beans everydays. Coconut water from the tree , fresh fruits and Acai. It's a Jaboticana that has millions times more vit C then anything and so on. ALOHA
What about the Hunza people living at the base of the Himalayas in Northern Pakistan? They are plant based and it is said they have NO CANCER. People there live to 140 years of age but DON'T have good birth records.
The blue zones were selected for being well documented. Your Hunza sound like they would not cut the bill. Doesn't mean they're not super healthy. Just means it's harder to prove.
That's why I made the comment on poor documentation on birth records for Hunza. I live in Southern California and Loma Linda is a joke. It's NOT Loma Linda It's only the church. There are more KFCs, McDonald's and Burger Kings in Loma Linda than anyplace else. The Hunza Valley is very isolated so their diet by default is healthier than any of the Blue Zones. ua-cam.com/video/xEPJFcLgYMU/v-deo.html
I think the lack of proper records prevent them from being considered for research and promotional references as it's harder to corroborate these claims. I remember reading that many people living around the Himalayas lived really long lives decades ago.
