Inflammatory Foods: What To Avoid
Вставка
- Опубліковано 4 тра 2024
- In this episode the surgeons discuss various foods that can contribute to inflammation. This is a long list of different types of foods, however, different foods may have different effects on different people. Obviously it would be impossible to avoid all the foods on this list, however, this list may be helpful to people who have inflammatory conditions such as trauma or autoimmune disorders and are trying to identify foods that may trigger their inflammation.

In the past three years, my husband and I gradually changed our diets according to what you have mentioned. He had gout and RA and PMR. We no longer (2 yrs) drink alcohol. He has lost 60+ lbs. (now 200lbs, 6’), no gout, RA, PMR. Walks 12+ miles at a time. No more inflammation. Please people believe it. He is 79, I, 77. You don’t have to feel old just because you have a high number age.
Yay Jane and your husband. Awesome story. Thanks for watching and subscribing
Impressive! Great motivation!
I'm 76 and regularly (4-5x a week) jog 4 or 5 miles, plus 30 min calesthenics, to kick off my active days. I agree with everything except pairing red meat with processed meat (and then focussing on nitrates). For years I have eaten a mostly home-cooked keto diet free of sugars, grains, starches, seed oils, and alcohol. I do better eating quality beef than poultry.
Congratulations 🎉 and thanks for the encouragement ☺️ I’m 65 and thought aches and pains is just old age. You will inspire many.
How does one get rid of RA and PMR? They are auto immune diseases 😀
1. Sugar
2. Trans fat
3. REFINED carbs (glycemic index spikes)
4. Alcohol (sorry!)
5. Red and Processed Meats (AGE)
6. Vegetable and Seed Oils (too many omega 6’s)
Runners up:
Gluten
Nightshades (these are okay, no proof that they cause inflammation)
Hi Chris. Nice summary. Thanks for watching and subscribing
Thanks a lot.🙏👍🍀
Thank God for good Samaritans like you, Bloom
Seed oil and vegetable oils in moderation aren't inflammatory according to this nutrition scientist.
He presents the evidence with links to his sources in the description.
ua-cam.com/video/-xTaAHSFHUU/v-deo.html
Some people might be sensitive to nightshades.
Try removing them from your diet temporarily to see if you are one of them.
There is a video from the Nutritionfacts channel that gave evidence to that effect, but I can't find it to give the link.
I'm pleased to hear doctors talking about food instead of talking about medications about time to
Yes Christine we agree. Thanks for watching and subscribing
Thanks for this video! 3 months ago my husband made a radical change in diet as an experiment. He feels so much better eating salads, salmon, chicken, fruits and veggies. Last night we had Chinese and a decadent birthday cake. He commented that he'd pay for it...today he's got body aches, back pain and headache. We just watched your video and it's nice to have the science to back his personal experiment.
Ha CatLady. Evidence for sure! Thanks for watching and subscribing
You guys rock 🎸...
oftentimes the size of the meal, which is why technical french and spanish eating, involves stages with long periods in between if the dishes are high calorie, usually due to being high fat. And the timing of dessert. Needs long delay after sizable main course or meal. But in the end, it's that combo of a quite high total cal meal/s especialy if the are high fat with high carb. Causes the discomfort and pushes blood sugar to limits
I can't imagine how you both find time for these instructive videos with a full practice, BUT thank you. You both pack a full course of info into just a few minutes. And for the lay, non medical viewer, you could not be more clear. All the best.
Ditto! I second this comment.

As a dietitian, I so appreciate videos like that👍❤️ Many doctors never even touch this mega-important topic. Cudos to you, docs🙌
Thanks Vicky. Doing our best. Thanks for watching and subscribing
Thought you may be interested. I have ulcerative colitis and was prescribed a drug to treat the sy,ptoms. My body reacted badly to the drugs and a friendly Doc,. suggested I try Curcumin as in South Africa where he was trained it's commonly used as a natural treatment for inflammation, in my case it also relieved many other pain areas at the same time.
As a Dietician, you should KNOW that the Carnivore diet is the healthiest diet for Human Beings.
Not what these doctors preach. Mislead!
Thanks for taking the time to do this gentlemen.
I love that you talk about FOOD. A lot of doctors have really NO idea. It's sad and dangerous.
Thanks again for all your help guys. Y’all actually got me through a total hip replacement surgery by watching your videos it came out good and I still enjoy watching y’all. 👍
That is awesome Mark
I love your presentation, very easy for the lay person to understand and hopefully follow through. Keep up the amazing work!

Hello to my two favorite UA-cam docs y’all always rock. The largest food group that’s bad for you that taste so good southern cooking. Even the vegetables have all the bad additives in them . So moderation is the key to all food & drinks. It’s very hard not to over indulge even when we know it. Thank you docs for opening or eyes even wider
Very welcome Kubota. Great perspective. Thanks for watching and subscribing

I watch what I eat the last 8btrs , but what about if you ate this crap for years can you get rid of this if you start late?
Great great ! Video. As a doc myself , I have recommended these same suggestions. I luckily got to live overseas as part of my childhood, in Europe and it is so easy to eat healthy. There are so many good things to eat. So many ways to prepare delicious vegetables and fruits with lean protein such as fish,chicken, turkey, and limited beef. It’s in the last 30-35 years that here in the USA, the large food industries have contaminated our ideas and force feed people. When I was in Jr high and HS, when we had a dance or other social activity , THERE WAS NO FOOD! It was great. We knew to eat before the activity and then go and enjoy the activity not go to eat. In the late 70s-80s , during the disco era in college, we would go dancing and not eat because we ate before going out. I feel food is the focus for all activities. Also, the style was to be thin , not huge.
Hi Elizabeth thanks so much for sharing. Thanks for watching and subscribing
The medical community really missed a great opportunity to talk about obesity when Covid showed up. The CDC & stats show it put morbidity at a higher risk. People's fear could've broken the PC ideas about fat shaming so we could again talk about the role of nutrition, weight control & health.
@@MonarchAZ The problem is how many doctors view obesity. One can be thicker than they used to be because of years of working out, running, rowing or dancing and the scale can be higher but they do not have much fat to their body. Another can be thin but flabby..and then others are clearly just obese. But many doctors only look at the scale. We need better education than what is currently on the internet.
Lol. Rocker chick..but pro dancer..i.e. not disco but rock dancing..dancing for us in 89-90s was done before..then for some ungodly reason, everyone wanted to go out to dinner after dancing or seeing a band or performing..(the performing thing I get..but after I do, I just want to go home..lol). I think your way made more sense as I'd slog along half asleep with the rest wishing everyone would go home and sleep as geez..it was 230 am! (The old joke from Tom Kiefer of Cinderella is the bassplayers and drummers go out and cause trouble, the guitarist mopes about how he sounded..and the vocalist everyone assumes is the wildest goes home to hope he or she sleeps because if he doesn't his voice will suffer). At least your way you got some zzzzzs!

Earlier this year I was diagnosed with severe PMR. My rheumatologist give me a diet sheet that essentially gave the same advice as this video. But it emphasised fish for omega 3 and allowed olive and avocado oils.
I've tried to follow it and 6 months later he says I've done very well. I believe the diet has helped enormously.

Thanks for this very informative video.
The foods we eat have both direct and indirect effects on our bodies. I have known about some of the inflammatory foods and stay clear of them. My body doesn’t like the way certain foods play havoc on my pain. I’m sure there’s more I can learn and put into practice. The one big food I eliminated completely was red meat. Love the topic and keep these videos coming .
Thanks so much DogsRGod. Good for you. Thanks for watching and subscribing
Kudos! Eliminating red meat really helps the environment, since raising cows is worse for the environment than any other farm animal due to the methane and nitrous oxide they produce.
It takes practice, alot of practice but when every day is an exhausting day full of fatigue and pain,you get tired of being in pain. Eating the right way just makes life easier, you really do feel much better..
It sure does Tory. Thanks for watching and subscribing

Always Good Advice. You guys are the greatest.
Heavens guys, I do wish that our senior medical practitioners here in the UK were as half as cheerful and smiling as you two guys.... it is a pleasure to see and listen to you, and I always learn a lot from you. Many thanks.
Thank you for talking about food. Most physicians only care about medications.💗. As an extremely insulin resistant person, I pretty much live on green leafy veggies, a hand full of berries and 5 oz of home raised organic meat per meal. I only use avocado and olive oil when using oil. You do not need to be on a keto diet to be low carb.😀

Thanks for this one. Hard hearing that what a lot of us enjoy is bad for us....hopefully a once in a while kind of enjoyment can be a fair compromise. I do realize there are some conditions (such as gout) where you should just leave things out completely for a while.

My brother did all the wrong things you mention. He suffered from gout in addition to other health issues. In 2004 he was prescribed Viox for his gout and died of a massive heart attack at age 48. This despite having no history of heart disease in our family. I'm almost 65 and I'm in good health. I practice moderation with the foods I eat and I actually drink a lot less since retirement usually 2 drinks per week.
Sorry about your brother George. All the best. Thanks for watching and subscribing
Do you think the medication hastened his death?
@@bedwarsgb4523 it was recalled in 2004 after about a 3rd of people who took it died.
@@MsPinkwolf Yes. Was prescribed this after having surgery to remove my gall bladder and ten days after couldn’t breathe for the pain in my chest and back. Was immediately taken off it. Also anything with codine gave me the same sensation. I always check for this when taking any medication.
So sorry for your loss😢 I believe Viox was taken off the market because of it’s dangerous side effects ie heart etc. Be very careful about taking new to the market medications
Thank you guys for this video. God bless the both of you !!!

4. Alcohol
5. Red meat and processed meat

Thanks for the information. I do know this list, and as I get closer to being 75 years old, I keep trying more and more to exclude everything on this list. My problem is sugar which I have been dealing with for almost my entire life, so I am trying to eat less and less of it, but it doesn't help much when sugar is in practically everything!! I will just keep working at it.

The nightshades and beef are killers for me. I am just going to have to live with some inflammation. The video's message was a lot easier to take coming from you two. Thanks.
We do our best John. Nightshades are probably ok. Beef …well …. Thanks for watching and subscribing
Beef is the only protein I can eat. I will easily give it up but because I have to low carb because of my Lyme, this makes my diet difficult. The rest of this is no problem.
I love pork ribs, pork butt. Are these also an issue? I’m not a fan of chicken and beef is no loss.
@@staycurious3954 I don't think pork is as bad but am not positive.
People with a genetic variant of MTHFR are more sensitive to inflammation from nightshades due to the alkaloid solanine, which is the inflammatory chemical in nightshade vegetables . This can be tested in a simple blood test by Labcorp. Blueberries also have solanine, the inflammatory chemical in the nightshade family. Eating blueberries every morning led to finger stiffness for me, which went away when I stopped eating blueberries every morning.
So fun to watch and listen to you guys at the end of my night. Your medical advice is Golden and it is
Supported and corroborated by hundreds of other scientific and medical studies. Humor and levity sells the hard compromises and aligns with everything my GP yells at me about. Thank you Doctors, press on and keep the truth on the light side.

So, I am trying to understand long-term healing and the inflammatory process. I have had 2 knee replacement surgeries, each a year apart, the last one being Dec 2020 and I am still in pain. Sometimes still swollen! Will this ever go away?? I am thin, in pretty good shape, work out (as best I can, certainly more limited now) and thought I was eating pretty healthy UNTIL I just recently read Eat to Live and have changed the way I think about food, nutrition and my health. (I don't think I ever thought about it before, I only watched calories to stay thin, probably suffered from malnutrition, lol!!). Do you think my pain and stiffness is still just part of the healing process and may never go away or can this possibly be chronic inflammation? Thanks for any advice!
Hi Jeanne. It can still improve but some knee patients have persistent pain despite a good functioning knee. Lots of ice and exercise. Best of luck. Thanks for watching and subscribing
Same here Jeanne,....best to eat foods High in Potassium and Magnesium.
Also a good $ Probiotic with food (AM ) at least 3x per week.
If you have low blood pressure, pre -cook and freeze a pound of calf's LIVER to be eaten 3x times a week. Its the best meat on the planet, and the cheapest.

It's been a year. Still off on my full knee replacement. Your videos have helped. Thank you. Won't get other fixed. This was too much pain

Now you know Mark! Thanks for watching and subscribing
Hey Doc's, I love you guys. You helped me through my knee and hip replacements. My question for you is: What is your take on Fibromyalgia. Hard to get a diagnosis. Not a fan of taking drugs but I am struggling with even getting out of bed. It comes and goes. The flare-ups are rough. What is Fibromyalgia all about?
Hi Diane. It is a little tricky. We can add it to the future video list. But it’s about painful trigger points. Treatment is medication and physio. Best of luck. Thanks for watching and subscribing
Hello Diane, I've been diagnosed with fibromyalgia. It's taken some time to figure out, but I have found certain foods make me feel awful, and increase my pain. Perhaps try to see how you feel when you eat certain things. A few of my triggers are milk (I can eat yogurt, though), wheat, and sugar. Best of luck to you!
My daughter has fibromyalgia. She was only 20 and her doctor wanted to put her on medication. She did not want that. She changed her diet to very similar to what the docs are saying, but also started going to a medically licensed acupuncturist. This changed her life. After a few years, she no longer needed the acupuncture. She continues a good diet and 20 years later only has flare-ups when she eats junk food. Hope this helps.
Thanks for this. The key is to concentrate on what you CAN eat: legumes, most vegetables, whole cereals, all of these in generous quantities, and sensible quantities of fruits, while keeping these “baddies” to a minimum, if not outright banning them. Am I right?
You are right! Thanks for watching and subscribing
Sensible quantities of fruit? Eat as much fruit as you want. It’s packed full of vitamins and antioxidants, and contains fiber, which greatly reduces the absorption of naturally occurring sugar. People think you should limit fruit because of sugar, but that’s not true because it’s a different process than eating added sugar in a processed food item like candy or crackers.
Thank you!!
And Thank you so much for caring so much! God be with you both.
Very welcome Darlene. Thanks for watching and subscribing
Love listening to you two Docs and the rapport that you have with both each another and your audience. You're never judgemental, only helpful. Must say that everything you said in this video, I can prove correct. I was a 35 year vegetarian and thought I was healthy. It wasn't until three years ago when I went vegan that my arthritis cleared up completely, my blood pressure dropped to 80/50 and my quality of life went through the roof. At 69, I'm now running at least a mile a day, climbing ladders like a 25 year old and dropped from 140 pounds down to 100 pounds (I'm 5'1"). Best thing I ever did for my body and psyche. Wish I had gone vegan 38 years ago and skipped the vegetarian thing. Too much fat, trans fat and processed food was killing me. Yogurt and cottage cheese are not health foods! Thanks for all your good advice!
Thank you so much Florence. Congrats on all of your success. Thanks for watching and subscribing
Fats are not bad for you, trans fats and carbs are.
@@Redcouriercat yep..we need healthy fats
What are the things you stopped eating when you switched to being Vegan? Dairy, eggs, and ? I can see where stopping all dairy would be a huge improvement for you. I stopped it in 2012, and was amazed at the improvements I saw/felt. Good for you!!!
@@Redcouriercat PROCESSED carbs. Whole foods carbs are the foundation of energy, problem is no one knows what those are, everything is so over processed. Whole oat groats, whole spelt berries, millet, whole kasha, quinoa (which I think is a seed actually), beans have carbs but the fiber slows down the insulin reaction. Just like fat, some are awful and some are not bad, the fat in salmon for example, omega 3's, and in flaxseed. and use veg oils to a minimum.
Starting small is still better than not starting at all. I was eating a LOT of red meat, fried/baked potatoes, and white corn. Now I eat more salmon, shrimp, chicken, pork and lamb instead. I still can't resist a deal on tri-tip or ribeye steaks so I generally share those meals with my son and my dog who craves red meat protein-so I'm not stuck eating the whole thing by myself. Pasta is probably the hardest thing to cut out of my diet so I've been trying to rotate in cabbage and onions sautéd in avocado oil, oven baked sweet potato and yam fries lightly coated with avocado oil garlic and pepper. Lots of sautéd squash. I also found that whole grain brown rice isn't so bad. I'm also a big mac and cheese fan. Does anyone know if the whole grain wheat pastas are worth the substitution or are they almost as bad for inflammation as the regular pasta? Baked potatoes are maybe once a week instead of 3 times a week. Red meat once or twice a week instead of 4-5 times a week. Trying to reduce down to once or twice a month. When my son is staying with his mom, I live on salads though I know dressings are high in dairy fats and/or sugar so I try to go light...like I'm dressing the salad in underwear instead of an entire outfit.

My inflammation was caused by my elbow, yes my elbow. I discovered that every time my elbow bent my mouth opened and that, that in turn inflamed my waistline. Also a lack of exercise was a minor factor also.

when you are 67 you may regret your decision. I don't think red meat is a huge problem.
But the thing is you might not die sooner - you'll might just spend those last years being sick. Retirement years.
Grassfed not cornfed beef, look it up, interesting☺
Meat and low carb(low vegetable) helps keep you from getting heart attacks. Keeps your brain healthy. Mostly meat, some fruits and even less vegetables. Whole animal based eating is what the pharmaceuticals don’t want you to eat why don’t they want you to eat it🤑
I have included this video in my Healthy Lifestyle Choices- free content mobile app and have promoted this video to over 40 LinkedIn and Facebook groups so far in over 2 days, with many more to come once approved. Thanks you so much for the insightful content and here's hoping we can get the message out to as many struggling with chronic pain and inflammation in their personal diets as possible, which is what I am passionate about.
Thanks Damien. We feel strongly about informing people and helping them get past all the promotion of unhealthy foods by industry. Thank you so much for including us!
Been cutting back on some on the list already, listening my body tell me to knock it off. Great video. Thanks.
Very welcome Steven. One step at a time. Thanks for watching and subscribing
Love you guys & love the way you present the info. As a diabetic, I learned “if it’s white, don’t bite.”
Nice! Thanks for watching and subscribing
"if it's white, don't bite" hilarious - I am going to remember that!
Thanks for the wonderful videos and educational info. I'm evidence that people can change their tastes and the foods they enjoy. I grew up in the country with lots of garden vegetables, but also lots of beef. My family became vegetarian 20 years ago, and step by step we have changed the way we eat. In the beginning, we were eating "whites" but as our tastes lightened up, we explored more brown rice, whole grains, etc. Now we don't crave or even think about eating those foods. You learn that when you do decide to "splurge" and eat them, you don't feel good. It definitely becomes easier and easier to eat healthy because the cause and effect is crystal clear.
We totally agree Brenda. Congrats. Thanks for watching and subscribing
My husband and I have had the same experience as you. The more we change to unprocessed fresh food (brown rice, whole grain stuff), the better we feel. And, we pay a stiff price when we “go off plan.”
I love you guys please keep up the great work and teaching us more
You guys are great.. There is a lot of misleading advice on the net, glad you guys are here to give some solid science based guidance
1) Sugar fructose - pop; 2) transfat margarine , fried foods; 3) refined carbs - white pasta, wh bread , wh rice; 4) alcohol ; 5) red meat, processed meat. Nitrates ; 6) veg/seed oils - omega-6 fats not good; 7) gluten, nightshade veg
TY ✌💛💫☀️
