I have a garden I eat a lot of food from it, I have eating rice, beans, tomatoes so many different vegetables, make my own bread, a whole my life, grew up in a farm, we ate the fruits seasonal, we would eat meat too. I am almost 70 zero problems with my health. One thing my mother use to teach us was moderation when you eat, I still remember, no matter how healthy it’s the food, too much, it’s not good for you. My grandma was to eat like us, she lived to be 113 years old. I think our bodies need a variety, because one kind of food do not cover every necessity in your body. But what it’s good for someone, doesn’t have to be for someone else. Moderation I pretty sure is good for everyone.
My bread I make every other day is; 1 cup of milk, 1 tablespoon of sugar, 1 teaspoon of salt, 2 tablespoon of butter and 2 hip bread flour. I of those pocket of yeast. I put all of that in my machine and 2 h 45 minutes my bread is done. I do not buy bread because is so expensive. Your family would love it. Hopefully you enjoy fresh bread. Just wanted to add that Healthline talk about different kinds of flours where you can substitute one cup or a half a cup teff, amaranth, with nutrients good for your brain, bone and DNA, Sorghum, with nutrients that may help reduce inflammation and balanced blood sugar, Buckwheat is rich in fiber and antioxidants. There are so many varieties of flour you can substitute at least half a cup of the regular bread flour. I do that many times.
Im diabetic and I recently had to quit drinking zero sugar drinks as it was causing ketoacidosis and I was vomiting up my food on a regular basis, it took a long time and a lot of experimentation to realise that it was the zero sugar drinks causing it.
Because everything with zero sugar has fake sugar like xylitol and saccharin and all those good things that they think they got rid of they just renamed and bury it in your food
My husband and I cook everything from whole foods. We even make our own whole grain sourdough bread, it's delicious, and we know what's in it. We slice our bread and freeze it, so it's always fresh. We live in the country and have a large garden in summer.
God blessed those hands!! I absolutely love people who garden and eat fresh most of the time. I am In Florida and I have big garden in fruits and vegetables and herbs every year. I can and freeze 🥶 a lot of products that I use during the year. I have a few herbs for tea, and cooking, make different kind of broth, my bread. I am absolutely love nature, it has so much positive energy to offer, while you garden.
I generally just stick to whole foods-lean meat, eggs, a bit of processed dairy (cheese, sour cream, yogurt), veg, fruit, whole grains, nuts, seeds. I don't worry about my weight, although I recently lost a good amount. I am decently healthy and happy, that's what matters.
I worry about weight because I used to be active healthy runner and my weight was always at a good bmi level. Now my bmi is very close to obese and I definetly feel a difference. I want to get to the weight I was to see if it makes an impact on my mental health. Like recently I've been more depressed, easily anxious and always in a shitty mood. I wouldn't say my life was perfect when I weighed less but I definetly feel like I'm harder on myself now with anything
@@dinoraven6289 I use the dry packed version, too - tomatoes and salt. I skip putting them in oil, though. Since I mainly chop them directly into salads, soups, or sauces, it just makes a mess. Jimmy's right, always read labels and compare. There _are_ good oil packed tomatoes out there, they may just cost a few cents more and not last eternally after they're opened.
People can’t go easy on amounts. Because these foods cause cravings. That’s what they do. It raises your insulin and when it drops you get the signal from your brain that you need more. And so starts the cycle. Also, we’re talking about addiction here. people are addicted to carbohydrates. It doesn’t matter what the amount is or where it comes from. It makes you want more and more and more and that’s the problem. It’s like asking an alcoholic just have one drink and then you’ll be fine you won’t have another drink till tomorrow or the next day or next week. No, he wants another drink as soon as that one’s done.
The key takeaways are: 1. **Misleading Health Foods**: Commonly perceived healthy options like diet sodas, fruit juices, flavored coffees, and ultra-processed plant-based foods may not be as beneficial as marketed due to artificial sweeteners, excess sugars, and processing methods that can damage gut health and metabolism. 2. **Bread and Wine Considerations**: The health impact of bread depends on the quality of the grain, the type of flour (whole grain vs. ultra-processed), and the bread-making process, with sourdough bread being highlighted for its probiotic benefits. 3. **Importance of Quantity**: The amount of food consumed can significantly affect one's health, with moderation being key. Tools like CGM devices can help individuals understand the impact of food on their blood sugar levels. 4. **Personalized Diet**: A one-size-fits-all approach to diet does not work. Mindful eating, which includes making informed choices about food based on personal preferences and cultural background, is essential for a sustainable and healthy diet. 5. **Gut Health as a Metabolic Indicator**: A healthy gut microbiome is crucial for efficient metabolism. Disruptions caused by artificial sweeteners, antibiotics, and ultra-processed foods can lead to metabolic issues and weight gain. 6. **Mindful Shopping**: Reading ingredient labels and understanding the contents of food products is crucial to avoid ingredients that could harm gut health and overall metabolism. 7. **Joy in Eating**: Aligning eating habits with personal joy and cultural practices is as important as the nutritional value of the food. Enjoyment of food should be a part of a healthy diet. 8. **Technology for Personal Insights**: Utilizing technology like CGM devices or breathalyzers for metabolic assessment can provide personal insights into how different foods affect individual health.
Thank you both. When it comes down to when I have to bake our own breads - I will be adding: chia & flax seeds, poppy seeds, kelp granules, various nuts (ground up), oats, pumpkin seeds, quinoa flakes, sesame seeds, sunflower seeds, dark wheat bran, etc. for more nutritious bread. Of course not all the above will be added at once - a little here & a little there will do the trick.
You could purchase these items one at a time and store in your fridge or cool place, they all last a long time because you only need a little for each loaf of bread ns you can make many loaves so are really not expensive if you do that.
This Doctor needs to be cloned and put into EVERY medical school to re-educate doctors with correct information about HEALTH. He is brilliant, and a gem of a person to anyone with common sense about how to improve their health in a sustained way. I just love learning from his simple to understand videos ... I respect this man immensely. 👍👍👍
No thanks, keep him. Anyone who still holds a negative opinion on artificial sweeteners in spite of the growing mountain of human controlled studies showing its safety and efficacy is not speaking from a place of intellectual honesty.
@@taylorhillard4868 Came here for at least some non-sycophantic take on the issue instead of blind praise for some doc nobody in these comments apparently understands. I may concede that your gut biome might experience changes (as he began to explain in the last chapter), but sweeteners being super impactful (if at all pronounced) one way or another is still turbo conjecture that should make anyone with half a toe dangling in the subject matter frown - because it's pure, unadulterated nonsense. Gut health - ok, but what's super egregious is the old fairy tale about a measurable insulin response when those half-hearted studies have been sufficiently debunked over and over again. Thus far, there is no link between those and any expert would and should recommend diet sodas over the alternative; markedly competent people like Mike Israetel have good overviews explaining the most important nuances. It's absolutely bonkers nonsense to claim that some people keep the weight upon switching to diet sodas. Absolute trash that statement is, people making the switch ubiquitously drop pounds, you need to skirt an already unfathomably small margin for a 500+ calorie habit to not express itself properly upon the dietary change, a margin not even the lightest people achieve unless you somehow drink 70 ml tiny coke cans or something silly. "no thanks, keep him" is absolutely correct. No doctor in this world has perfect knowledge, but not knowing something as basic as this and still speaking with any sort of authority about it only tells me that you're bs'ing your audience. Most artificial sweeteners are virtually harmless, and even gut health is far from being proven to suffer adverse effects from drinking any of it. Seriously, stop it.
Yes, none of this stuff is common knowledge but literally impacts our health and ability to fight diseases. Without being too controversial, the same amount of effort being put into cancer research should be put into nutritional education, then maybe there would not be so much cancer to research to begin with!
@@taylorhillard4868 as always moderation is the best, artificial sweeteners better than sugar but if we consume it more than sugar we mostly consume then I feel it can be bad.
I like your discussion about bread, especially when you mentioned sourdough. I would like to mention the milling of wheat into flour. Modern milling is done with steel rollers and produces a fine-grained flour. Then the bran and husk parts are separated leaving just the starchy endosperm. This makes flour that can be store for a long time. Originally stone -ground milling was a local operation. The flour was quickly used by local bakeries. Newly milled flour is very nutritious for a short time. You cannot build a pyramid while eating white bread. that w
I read labels when i go to the groceries. If i cannot pronounce the ingredients and the ingredients is a long word. It means it is not good for you. We can only do so much in our diet and nutrition. We can do our best to get quality food. For me, what works for me is Balance diet. No extreme measures in diet. Just listen to your body. Balance is the key. Do not overdo anything. 😊
Just because you can’t read or pronounce ingredients on a label, does NOT mean it is bad for you. Not saying it is good for you, but that is too much of a blanket statement to use on all ingredients you can’t pronounce. This is especially true in skin care products as well. Many (not all) ingredients have their purpose
I hope this isn't gonna come of as rude or mean. It's not meant that way, but... This is just inaccurate. Imagine you have a closed box you can't see or smell anything through and it contains an apple, banana, orange, and mango. Instead of just writing that on the package they list to compounds the fruits are made up off as the ingredients. You could most likely not read most of those compounds and would assume it's not good for you. But the box contains four fruits. this also is way too simplistic because it implies that a chemist can eats things because they know what the ingredient is or pronounce the word and it would be healthy for them, but not you. Heck, I'm not a chemist by a long shot, but I can pronounce quite a few complex words and have a decent idea what it is. Just because I can say it doesn't make it healthy for me and not for you and just because you can't say it makes it inherently unhealthy. methylcobalamine and cyanocobalamine are forms of vitamin B12 ascorbic acid is vitamin C colecalcipherol is vitamin D tocopherol is vitamin E Be careful with blanket statements and views like this. Chemical names tend to be complex, but that doesn't make it unhealthy. This always reminds me of that meme type situattion where people go onto the streat asking others if they'd consume dihyrogenoxide (which is water) and the people say no "because it's a chemical and not good for you). Would be true for dihydrogendioxide though (bleach for your hair).
Started my no sugar journey 10 days ago, My daily routine now 1.Wake up 2.Watch your videos 3. Start the day 4.watch another video on sugar addiction 5.sleep!!! Thank you❤
The aspartame we drink invokes anxiety, the vegetation processed products do the same. The bread we eat today only serves to create further anxiety within us. I am too old now and have not had the education I would have needed but I can clearly see we are what we eat. We know now that 80% of our serotonin resides in our gut. Thank you
During holiday I ate things I don’t eat anymore-bread, crackers, pasta. Man, I’ve been bloated, feel heavy, not going potty well, etc. Moreover, was hungrier than normal-nothing was satisfying. I’m glad I’m back to work-I eat less and healthy, nearly no processed carbs (never bread or pasta, but sometimes a few crackers). Those processed grains wreak havoc, yet they seem so innocuous. :)
Those who say that we don't get joy from eating right has never had a bowel blockage where you can't eat anything but liquids and when you make a green smoothie and you haven't eaten in a few hours your stomach is excited that you're going to feed it what it wants. you even start to get extra energy just because it knows what's coming
As someone without a colon, I'd love to hear your view on how it changes gut health. I hear a thousand different opinions (as always in nutrition science) and am lost how one should think in regards to this, and salt intake.
Still raises your insulin. All grains raise your insulin. Gluconeogenesis is the process in the liver that gives you all the glucose you need in the absence of glucose.
Thanks to Dr Li for explaining what was meant by CGM = continuous glucose monitor (?). Very helpful advice here about reducing amounts and impact on blood sugar levels.
Dr. Chatterjee, How much white rice is a small amount for you that does not impact your blood sugar? Would that be 1/2 cup or 1/4 cup or 1 cup? I am curious. Thank you for the video.
Can you cook rice 🍚, bread 🍞, sweet potato 🥔 or anything with carbohydrates and starch, let it cool off and put in the fridge or freezer l find freezer better before eating, and your sugar levels would be affected, check it out. Bake your own cake or bread 🍞 and home cook food. I prefer to cook more amounts and store in freezer or fridge
I think humans have a tendency for the extreme. Don’t touch, don’t eat, eat this, don’t eat that. It does become burdensome. I know it did for me. Perhaps it’s best to just exercise moderation, and enjoy what God has provided for us, and for our enjoyment. I have though seen the need to eliminate the obvious offenders; sugar, processed foods. Having done this has helped me shed 40 pounds of weight, and stabilized my really high blood pressure. I guess it boils down to common sense.
People don’t have common sense they have addiction, they have cravings. Just the physiology of eating carbohydrates causes a disruption in your signals of fullness and hunger. And hunger is usually a false signal. Went insulin is raised and then drops The body thinks that it needs more. The brain tells the pancreas to release insulin. It’s a vicious cycle. People have no idea what it’s like to detox and wean off of carbohydrates. Once you do you eat simple, whole foods, especially protein and you don’t have a signal issue.
I agree with you. They say don't have sugar then don't have sweetner. Some people like me need something in their tea. I just use sugar as that would be better than sweetner. It's cutting down things rather than eating lots of it.
Breads produced for long shelf life are full of additives. European breads bought at the bakery get hard as a rock in about 3 days, meaning freshly made without additives. I started baking a large selection of bio bread products, have control over the ingredients, etc, taste so much better than store bought, usually eaten in a relatively short time. In the US there are over 10,000 additives approved for food products, whereas here in the EU just 400. Says a lot who the EU supports rather than corporate profits and unhealthy foods.
It lowers the glycemic index. Same with potatoes. Cook them, refrigerate them, then reheat them to eat. Refrigerating them Lowers the glycemic index of the potato by 30% 👍
yes same with rice, cook it put it in the fridge, heat it up before you eat it. this lowers the glycemic index too. it'll help when you used to eat rice and starts decreasing your intake and frequency- do this for the meantime.
What made me loose all my excess weight is a no sugar low carb diet which i am continuing as it is also making me healthy in general i haven't been sick in years. And of course only natural food no junk. Healthy home cooked foods.
I make bread from lupin and gluten flour; I make my own sauerkraut in a jar with salt alone I burp it a few days then in the fridge. Any food made from big food companies have preservatives which aren’t good for health gut. Kefir and bacteria yogurt is good for the gut. Keep those pipes healthy.
Most people don’t know they’re gut is unhealthy. It’s like taking vitamins you don’t know what vitamin you need. You have to test. Go to your doctor and do blood test. Take a sensitivity test. The problem with people if they don’t know their bodies, they just think that they need this or that, and take it just in case.
I don’t eat bread I don’t eat yogurt and I took a sensitivity test and got no results on gut biome. It said that I had no digestive issues to note so I don’t believe that these things are healthy. You just don’t destroy your gut health in the first place, then you don’t need all these other things. Stay away from processed foods, breads, grains, sugar. I am carnivore and my gut health is in perfect condition. My triglycerides are 90 my HDL is 62.5 and my VLDL is 18. I don’t care about LDL because particle size is what matters but triglycerides matter more.
Not everyone system is made to eat just meat, I got very constipated with eat, immediately start gane pounds like crazy, heavy to the point I can’t walk. What it works for someone no necessarily works for other people.
Please be careful of doing keto longer than a few months - especially if you are a post menopausal women. An animal keto diet will end up with your cholesterol slowly going up dangerously after a year or two, and you will be missing out on enough fibre. Please, please, be careful - the initial great results of getting off of the processed sugars and other rubbish, become superseded by the problems of filling up on animals fats and proteins and not getting enough plant nutrients and particularly fibre.
Dr Ben Bickman who specialises in the metabolism and fat, spoke of alullose negating the fructose in fruits and fruit drinks which causes spikes in insulin levels, and which can lead to insulin resistance over time. Insulin is what causes our fat cells to hang onto fat. Lowering insulin spikes after eating bad carbs and fructose leads to weight loss. Exercising after eating also reduces insulin spikes. I’ve also read that we can increase the resistant starch in foods like potatoes, pasta, rice etc, by cooking then chilling or freezing, then reheating and eating. Our bodies can’t digest resistant starches but our good gut bacterias thrive on them.
That sounds fine to me. I don’t think milk is good for us adult humans, but i believe the bacteria in the kefir at least helps with the lactose and perhaps digesting it. Some may argue goat milk kefir is better, but whatever, seems all the same to me, since it’s derived from an animal. I would say this is 100% better than having coco puffs everyday, no. Also smoothies are fine because it has the fiber still. But I’m no healthcare pro, so…. Best 🌱
Diet sodas are arguable. If u are a healthy individual yes ofc don't drink it. But if u are a 300 pound person tryna lose weight drinking Litres of full sugar fizzy drinks and then switch to diet instead, can be very beneficial
Yet statistically, diet only accounts for 10% of dis-ease. There’s far too much demonization of food - especially more affordable food. Social determinants have a colossal effect on our health. Far more than any bread with have on us. Food is minuscule in the grand scheme of things. More than WHAT you eat, the RELATIONSHIP that you have to food is far more imperative and effects everything from digestion to nutritional value to the amount of stress that we elicit from being so pedantic in what we consume. Too many people die from cancer and it wasn’t from eating the “wrong” foods. It’s tremendous psychological and social stress.
Ah yes, plant-based foods. Beyond Meat, right? I wonder how many people would buy it if it was renamed "Plant based laboratory concoctions treated with questionable chemicals."
I'm confused about what to eat and what not to it .all the different diets contradict each other One says bananas are high in carbs to much sugar another says bananas are full of Vitamins. Some say eggs have colestrial . Some say eat eggs everyday..have as much spinach as you like .or.dont eat to much spinach causes kidney stones. Etc ...
I took the lumen test to see if I needed to use it and it said I needed more carbohydrates. No I do not need carbohydrates. There is no need for carbohydrates. That’s what gluconeogenesis is for to give me all the glucose. My body needs with consuming zero carbohydrates.
People mislead when it comes to diet soda. It's not good for you but if you have a weight problem specifically or are consuming too much sugar, it is better for you than sugar soda.
"Be mindful and engaged when you X" is about the only useful advice when you are talking about almost any human activity. But most people are either unwilling or incapable of it. Hence the state of our health, economies, schools, governments,...
“We fermented wine we made bread” - NO - we fermented grapes and made wine and we fermented grain and made bread. Whole grapes, whole grains, that are fermented before being made into wine and bread, or as being made into wine and bread. Don’t eat bread that isn’t naturally fermented and made from whole-grain. At least if you want to be eating real food the way it was made and helped mankind developed for thousands of years.
@@MicukoFeltonwhen you use a starter that is what starts the fermentation process - the starter historically was fermented flour or grain added to fresh ground flour thereby fermenting it - yeast except wild yeast came much later
I got diagnosed with enlarged prostate and i asked my doctor if i needed to change anything in my diet.. and he said no nothing :( after that i dont trust him at all

Where is his support for the claim that artificial sweeteners damage our gut health or "metabolism" and this is somehow worse than the issues with full sugar sodas? All studies on this have been in rodents, with extremely high doses of artificial sweetener (comparable to consuming thousands of cans of soda for a human), and the results were actually inconclusive. They just noticed a change in gut microbiome, they can't determine whether the change is positive or negative. Tons of things you consume can change your gut microbiome, it doesn't mean they're automatically bad, nor do we even know if this actually occurs in humans or not, it's not been sufficiently studied at all. Also, obesity has serious measurable negative impacts to health, so why are we assuming that consuming soda with sugar and becoming obese is somehow better? This is an insane claim with no real backing in the research.
Don’t think we are a society of weight loss. I think we have progressed onto health. We are Society that is trying to get healthy. Weight loss is secondary. It comes naturally after we quit eating all the garbage. I shop the periphery of the store I do not go down, isles ever, I think people have gotten smart, especially as older generations who went through that no fat but full of sugar and grains. The cookies we could eat because they were fat free the candy we could eat because they were fat free. It didn’t work we are fatter and sicker because of it. They told us no salt. It causes hypertension which it does not. Our bodies need that our bodies need salt. They lied to us. When you restrict or remove certain foods from your diet, you want them even more. It is a mind game you do have to be mindful. But you also have to realize the effect that these foods are having on your body and people don’t do that. The reason I quit eating certain foods is because of the effect they were having on my body that I was just done with. I was over the joint pain. I was done with the chronic diarrhea and now I am much much better because I went back to the basics. Our ancestors eat meat. They didn’t have sweet apples and sweet, bananas, and fake lettuces.
I disagree. Grains raise insulin no matter what grain it is whether it’s modern or ancient. In ancient times they were able to eat the breads they made wherever they were because they weren’t buying ultra processed foods and drinks from the stores. It’s all they had. They had milk they had meat they had some vegetables and fruits. Not the man-made kind you see in the store. Their health was so much better. Adding any grain to your diet is just throwing fuel on the fire.
True, grains = insulin-resistance and inflammation creating a cascade of negative effects throughout the body. People have an emotional attachment to bread, grains, like a teddy bear, or a comfort blanket. Brain studies have also shown that refined grain (milled wheat berry), activates the same part of the brain as morphine and the opioid receptors. Flour addiction, you dont hear about it.
15:58 should it have been made more clearer, that when carbs are eaten, insulin is produced? Why would insulin be released if only eggs were eaten? Thank you for uploading and sharing.
If food was not also enjoyed, we would never have combined items, put herbs and spices onto our foods, nor would we have ever cooked anything. Nor would we have taste buds! Do you also believe that people through the ages have only had sex for procreation, and not enjoyment? I believe it could be the other way around - our taste buds (enjoyment) have LED us to find foods that have been useful to us.
Until you are a Type 1 Diabetic and see what this man say's and how these foods spike our blood sugars it makes sense. Since the 50's the rise of Overweight and Diabetes is scary. Watch the film 'Jaws' the beach scene when the swimmer gets eaten how many fat people are there. The manufacture of car seat and airline seat has changed in size and strength as in structure has increased because of people putting on weight.
Yep. Checking my bloods regularly showed me that high glycaemic foods and fruits ie carbs cause me a problem,... So first Atkins, then keto and now carnivore and never felt better. Fruit only when in season, carbs once a week, exercise and fasting regularly keeps my weight stable and stacks of energy. At 77 I have enough get up and go to do an hour's weight training daily at the gym. Most people I think are carb addicts, like some commenters occasionally appearing here!
0:37 I'm not sure this is true: look at all the gym bro videos out there explaining how to get jacked and shredded, they all say drink diet soda. And I have to admit that I'm torn between a guy that's not jacked telling me it's bad, and a guy that is clearly jacked telling me it doesn't affect your health. Rensaince periodisization (can't spell that channel name for the life of me), whatever, he talks about aspertame etc and it's all good. Since I wanna lose fat and get somewhat jacked I'm gonna continue to drink diet soda. Yes bodybuilders tend to die early, that's not what I'm going for tho. Extreme runners also die early. I agree with the rest of the list because it confirms my biases and provides a comforting bed of illusion that I can rest my weary head on.
Quantity doesn’t matter when you’re eating all the other crap during the day and during the week. It adds up you think or a little piece of bread here oh, a little scoop of pasta there. But this is on a daily and hourly basis all week all month all the time. Who just eats one thing and doesn’t go back for more or to the next thing and the next thing. All of these foods cause a disruption of your signals.Grehlin and leptin. Do you want to talk about insulin resistance. You also have grehlin and leptin resistance.
My doctor said to me anything if large quantity is not good for your health, even it’s considered good thing, anything if small quantity is not big deal even it’s considered bad😂
And yet in the UK we are charged a sugar levy for buying 'non diet' 'no sugar' drinks. We're also told we should swap meat for a plant based / vegetarian meal at least once a week 🤦♀️ Why are we being told we need to have these things , that they are better for us, and yet it's just the opposite you say , as we also get charged money if we disagree and want the full fat version of these drinks, so therefore our choice is made for us. 🤦♀️🤷♀️
David Sinclair recommends eating only 75% of usual amounts of food. We eat too much. Weight Watchers main message is portion control. And then the only bread worth eating is real sourdough, which one can make at home.
It is clear what we should eat to stay healthier but for example , those who do physical work every day need meat because they simple could not survive on plant- based foods in the long term. It's not about me.❤
Wrong. 8+ years vegan working 100+ a week with two highly active jobs(farming+ bulk weight delivery). Get the right fats and carbs for energy, and plenty fruit and veg to clean. Stay Blessed I will too😊. If one isn't lazy and highly conscious no need to put death and cruelty in our temple. Thou shall not kill- most seem to forget this through their diet
To me that was all about using the right side of your brain, the side that leads you to Spirit or God. Left brain gets caught in thought which then creates separation from All, from the Divine. While casting to the right side gets you in creative mode or flow state to Be Still and realize Oneness with the Divine. Then at that point one will create what he/she desires as it's then realized we are all Creators. Enjoy, Celebrate you are already whole and complete 😊 You are Loved, Stay Blessed, All is Grace
My husband is a diabetic and drinks coke zero but he started having some gut issues, I need to go tell him about diet soda and the effect on gut health now. He will not be happy at all because that's the only thing he drinks besides water. Oh well.
Having listened to this, it's really not nuanced and complicated is it? There's real bread, real rice, real wine, etc. and then there's the cheap, fake version that in fact isn't food, it's counterfeit. Stop pussy-footing around to avoid offending people; people should be offended and outraged about how they've been fooled. That's how you motivate people to take their power back.
It is less sweet but your brain is not stupid. Any time it taste sweet it doesn’t say oh that’s fake. It just knows that it’s sweet and sent a message to the pancreas to release insulin in the thought that glucose is coming. And glucose doesn’t come, and now you have the fat Storing hormone and other damaging effects of insulin running around your body. It’s called the cephalic phase.

Just wanted to add that Healthline talk about different kinds of flours where you can substitute one cup or a half a cup teff, amaranth, with nutrients good for your brain, bone and DNA, Sorghum, with nutrients that may help reduce inflammation and balanced blood sugar, Buckwheat is rich in fiber and antioxidants. There are so many varieties of flour you can substitute at least half a cup of the regular bread flour. I do that many times.
I don t want to be old miserable and broke
Can you elaborate on moderation? How much food is too much, or less?
Im diabetic and I recently had to quit drinking zero sugar drinks as it was causing ketoacidosis and I was vomiting up my food on a regular basis, it took a long time and a lot of experimentation to realise that it was the zero sugar drinks causing it.
Because everything with zero sugar has fake sugar like xylitol and saccharin and all those good things that they think they got rid of they just renamed and bury it in your food
My husband and I cook everything from whole foods. We even make our own whole grain sourdough bread, it's delicious, and we know what's in it. We slice our bread and freeze it, so it's always fresh. We live in the country and have a large garden in summer.
God blessed those hands!! I absolutely love people who garden and eat fresh most of the time. I am In Florida and I have big garden in fruits and vegetables and herbs every year. I can and freeze 🥶 a lot of products that I use during the year. I have a few herbs for tea, and cooking, make different kind of broth, my bread. I am absolutely love nature, it has so much positive energy to offer, while you garden.
Recepy please. Sourdough bread please. I tried but not got fluffy results. Would like without ready-made yeast and sugar.if possible please send me.
I generally just stick to whole foods-lean meat, eggs, a bit of processed dairy (cheese, sour cream, yogurt), veg, fruit, whole grains, nuts, seeds. I don't worry about my weight, although I recently lost a good amount. I am decently healthy and happy, that's what matters.
That is exactly what I do. I feel great.
I worry about weight because I used to be active healthy runner and my weight was always at a good bmi level.
Now my bmi is very close to obese and I definetly feel a difference. I want to get to the weight I was to see if it makes an impact on my mental health.
Like recently I've been more depressed, easily anxious and always in a shitty mood.
I wouldn't say my life was perfect when I weighed less but I definetly feel like I'm harder on myself now with anything

My wife bought a container of sundried tomatoes. I thought it would be tomatoes and oil. Nope- 23 ingredients. It pays to read the labels.
I buy sundried tomatoes that are vacuum sealed and then store them in my own jar with olive oil. The ones sold in oil are all seed oils.
right, I tossed mine out.
@@dinoraven6289 I use the dry packed version, too - tomatoes and salt. I skip putting them in oil, though. Since I mainly chop them directly into salads, soups, or sauces, it just makes a mess. Jimmy's right, always read labels and compare. There _are_ good oil packed tomatoes out there, they may just cost a few cents more and not last eternally after they're opened.

Moderation is Key
Too much of anything is bad
Problem is, many of us are addicts
who struggle with "just enough".
People can’t go easy on amounts. Because these foods cause cravings. That’s what they do. It raises your insulin and when it drops you get the signal from your brain that you need more. And so starts the cycle. Also, we’re talking about addiction here. people are addicted to carbohydrates. It doesn’t matter what the amount is or where it comes from. It makes you want more and more and more and that’s the problem. It’s like asking an alcoholic just have one drink and then you’ll be fine you won’t have another drink till tomorrow or the next day or next week. No, he wants another drink as soon as that one’s done.
The key takeaways are:
1. **Misleading Health Foods**: Commonly perceived healthy options like diet sodas, fruit juices, flavored coffees, and ultra-processed plant-based foods may not be as beneficial as marketed due to artificial sweeteners, excess sugars, and processing methods that can damage gut health and metabolism.
2. **Bread and Wine Considerations**: The health impact of bread depends on the quality of the grain, the type of flour (whole grain vs. ultra-processed), and the bread-making process, with sourdough bread being highlighted for its probiotic benefits.
3. **Importance of Quantity**: The amount of food consumed can significantly affect one's health, with moderation being key. Tools like CGM devices can help individuals understand the impact of food on their blood sugar levels.
4. **Personalized Diet**: A one-size-fits-all approach to diet does not work. Mindful eating, which includes making informed choices about food based on personal preferences and cultural background, is essential for a sustainable and healthy diet.
5. **Gut Health as a Metabolic Indicator**: A healthy gut microbiome is crucial for efficient metabolism. Disruptions caused by artificial sweeteners, antibiotics, and ultra-processed foods can lead to metabolic issues and weight gain.
6. **Mindful Shopping**: Reading ingredient labels and understanding the contents of food products is crucial to avoid ingredients that could harm gut health and overall metabolism.
7. **Joy in Eating**: Aligning eating habits with personal joy and cultural practices is as important as the nutritional value of the food. Enjoyment of food should be a part of a healthy diet.
8. **Technology for Personal Insights**: Utilizing technology like CGM devices or breathalyzers for metabolic assessment can provide personal insights into how different foods affect individual health.
Well done Key Takeaways! Thank you.

There are so many food additives in processed foods, it’s not really food anymore. THANK YOU For this very important video!!
"MIndful rather than prescriptive eating." YES!!!
Thank you both. When it comes down to when I have to bake our own breads - I will be adding: chia & flax seeds, poppy seeds, kelp granules, various nuts (ground up), oats, pumpkin seeds, quinoa flakes, sesame seeds, sunflower seeds, dark wheat bran, etc. for more nutritious bread. Of course not all the above will be added at once - a little here & a little there will do the trick.
You must be very Rich to use these expensive ingredients to make your bread
I bake a loaf of sourdough bread every two weeks, I just like the way it taste,without preserves
You could purchase these items one at a time and store in your fridge or cool place, they all last a long time because you only need a little for each loaf of bread ns you can make many loaves so are really not expensive if you do that.

This Doctor needs to be cloned and put into EVERY medical school to re-educate doctors with correct information about HEALTH. He is brilliant, and a gem of a person to anyone with common sense about how to improve their health in a sustained way.
I just love learning from his simple to understand videos ... I respect this man immensely. 👍👍👍
No thanks, keep him. Anyone who still holds a negative opinion on artificial sweeteners in spite of the growing mountain of human controlled studies showing its safety and efficacy is not speaking from a place of intellectual honesty.
@@taylorhillard4868 Came here for at least some non-sycophantic take on the issue instead of blind praise for some doc nobody in these comments apparently understands. I may concede that your gut biome might experience changes (as he began to explain in the last chapter), but sweeteners being super impactful (if at all pronounced) one way or another is still turbo conjecture that should make anyone with half a toe dangling in the subject matter frown - because it's pure, unadulterated nonsense. Gut health - ok, but what's super egregious is the old fairy tale about a measurable insulin response when those half-hearted studies have been sufficiently debunked over and over again. Thus far, there is no link between those and any expert would and should recommend diet sodas over the alternative; markedly competent people like Mike Israetel have good overviews explaining the most important nuances.
It's absolutely bonkers nonsense to claim that some people keep the weight upon switching to diet sodas. Absolute trash that statement is, people making the switch ubiquitously drop pounds, you need to skirt an already unfathomably small margin for a 500+ calorie habit to not express itself properly upon the dietary change, a margin not even the lightest people achieve unless you somehow drink 70 ml tiny coke cans or something silly.
"no thanks, keep him" is absolutely correct. No doctor in this world has perfect knowledge, but not knowing something as basic as this and still speaking with any sort of authority about it only tells me that you're bs'ing your audience. Most artificial sweeteners are virtually harmless, and even gut health is far from being proven to suffer adverse effects from drinking any of it. Seriously, stop it.
Yes, none of this stuff is common knowledge but literally impacts our health and ability to fight diseases. Without being too controversial, the same amount of effort being put into cancer research should be put into nutritional education, then maybe there would not be so much cancer to research to begin with!
@@taylorhillard4868 as always moderation is the best, artificial sweeteners better than sugar but if we consume it more than sugar we mostly consume then I feel it can be bad.
I like your discussion about bread, especially when you mentioned sourdough. I would like to mention the milling of wheat into flour. Modern milling is done with steel rollers and produces a fine-grained flour. Then the bran and husk parts are separated leaving just the starchy endosperm. This makes flour that can be store for a long time. Originally stone -ground milling was a local operation. The flour was quickly used by local bakeries. Newly milled flour is very nutritious for a short time. You cannot build a pyramid while eating white bread.

I use a little Retsel stone flour mill at home and the results are so, so good!

I read labels when i go to the groceries. If i cannot pronounce the ingredients and the ingredients is a long word. It means it is not good for you. We can only do so much in our diet and nutrition. We can do our best to get quality food. For me, what works for me is Balance diet. No extreme measures in diet. Just listen to your body. Balance is the key. Do not overdo anything. 😊
I agree.
Just because you can’t read or pronounce ingredients on a label, does NOT mean it is bad for you. Not saying it is good for you, but that is too much of a blanket statement to use on all ingredients you can’t pronounce. This is especially true in skin care products as well. Many (not all) ingredients have their purpose
I hope this isn't gonna come of as rude or mean. It's not meant that way, but...
This is just inaccurate. Imagine you have a closed box you can't see or smell anything through and it contains an apple, banana, orange, and mango. Instead of just writing that on the package they list to compounds the fruits are made up off as the ingredients. You could most likely not read most of those compounds and would assume it's not good for you. But the box contains four fruits.
this also is way too simplistic because it implies that a chemist can eats things because they know what the ingredient is or pronounce the word and it would be healthy for them, but not you. Heck, I'm not a chemist by a long shot, but I can pronounce quite a few complex words and have a decent idea what it is. Just because I can say it doesn't make it healthy for me and not for you and just because you can't say it makes it inherently unhealthy.
methylcobalamine and cyanocobalamine are forms of vitamin B12
ascorbic acid is vitamin C
colecalcipherol is vitamin D
tocopherol is vitamin E
Be careful with blanket statements and views like this. Chemical names tend to be complex, but that doesn't make it unhealthy. This always reminds me of that meme type situattion where people go onto the streat asking others if they'd consume dihyrogenoxide (which is water) and the people say no "because it's a chemical and not good for you). Would be true for dihydrogendioxide though (bleach for your hair).

The aspartame we drink invokes anxiety, the vegetation processed products do the same. The bread we eat today only serves to create further anxiety within us.

During holiday I ate things I don’t eat anymore-bread, crackers, pasta. Man, I’ve been bloated, feel heavy, not going potty well, etc. Moreover, was hungrier than normal-nothing was satisfying. I’m glad I’m back to work-I eat less and healthy, nearly no processed carbs (never bread or pasta, but sometimes a few crackers). Those processed grains wreak havoc, yet they seem so innocuous. :)
Wow, amazing explanation of how we should look after our our body - our temple 🥰
Sugar coma is real for me with neuro issues

As someone without a colon, I'd love to hear your view on how it changes gut health. I hear a thousand different opinions (as always in nutrition science) and am lost how one should think in regards to this, and salt intake.

I buy sprouted grain/ legume bread that has to be refrigerated….only a few ingredients….it is good
Still raises your insulin. All grains raise your insulin. Gluconeogenesis is the process in the liver that gives you all the glucose you need in the absence of glucose.
Thanks to Dr Li for explaining what was meant by CGM = continuous glucose monitor (?). Very helpful advice here about reducing amounts and impact on blood sugar levels.
P.S. I w own both of his books . They are a good read and helpful with its information
Dr. Chatterjee, How much white rice is a small amount for you that does not impact your blood sugar? Would that be 1/2 cup or 1/4 cup or 1 cup? I am curious. Thank you for the video.
Can you cook rice 🍚, bread 🍞, sweet potato 🥔 or anything with carbohydrates and starch, let it cool off and put in the fridge or freezer l find freezer better before eating, and your sugar levels would be affected, check it out. Bake your own cake or bread 🍞 and home cook food. I prefer to cook more amounts and store in freezer or fridge
I think humans have a tendency for the extreme. Don’t touch, don’t eat, eat this, don’t eat that. It does become burdensome. I know it did for me. Perhaps it’s best to just exercise moderation, and enjoy what God has provided for us, and for our enjoyment. I have though seen the need to eliminate the obvious offenders; sugar, processed foods. Having done this has helped me shed 40 pounds of weight, and stabilized my really high blood pressure. I guess it boils down to common sense.
People don’t have common sense they have addiction, they have cravings. Just the physiology of eating carbohydrates causes a disruption in your signals of fullness and hunger. And hunger is usually a false signal. Went insulin is raised and then drops The body thinks that it needs more. The brain tells the pancreas to release insulin. It’s a vicious cycle. People have no idea what it’s like to detox and wean off of carbohydrates. Once you do you eat simple, whole foods, especially protein and you don’t have a signal issue.
'Don’t touch, don’t eat, eat this, don’t eat that. It does become burdensome'

I agree with you. They say don't have sugar then don't have sweetner. Some people like me need something in their tea. I just use sugar as that would be better than sweetner. It's cutting down things rather than eating lots of it.
Breads produced for long shelf life are full of additives. European breads bought at the bakery get hard as a rock in about 3 days, meaning freshly made without additives. I started baking a large selection of bio bread products, have control over the ingredients, etc, taste so much better than store bought, usually eaten in a relatively short time. In the US there are over 10,000 additives approved for food products, whereas here in the EU just 400. Says a lot who the EU supports rather than corporate profits and unhealthy foods.
I forget the doctors name but I heard that if you freeze bread then toast it you will lessen the unhealthy effect of bread.
Heard the same off Alan Mandel. He has some great tips.
I do that for convenience! Buy bread once a week or fortnight and freeze! Still here and have been for a long time!
It lowers the glycemic index. Same with potatoes. Cook them, refrigerate them, then reheat them to eat. Refrigerating them Lowers the glycemic index of the potato by 30% 👍
yes same with rice, cook it put it in the fridge, heat it up before you eat it. this lowers the glycemic index too. it'll help when you used to eat rice and starts decreasing your intake and frequency- do this for the meantime.
All grains are carbohydrate, starch, also are sugar. We have too much of it and it's in all foods.
What made me loose all my excess weight is a no sugar low carb diet which i am continuing as it is also making me healthy in general i haven't been sick in years. And of course only natural food no junk. Healthy home cooked foods.
I make bread from lupin and gluten flour; I make my own sauerkraut in a jar with salt alone I burp it a few days then in the fridge. Any food made from big food companies have preservatives which aren’t good for health gut. Kefir and bacteria yogurt is good for the gut. Keep those pipes healthy.
Most people don’t know they’re gut is unhealthy. It’s like taking vitamins you don’t know what vitamin you need. You have to test. Go to your doctor and do blood test. Take a sensitivity test. The problem with people if they don’t know their bodies, they just think that they need this or that, and take it just in case.
forget doctors , you can dowse to find out
I spend a lot of time reading labels when shopping 😂
It’s often a very different story at the back label than the front “marketing goodness”😅
I don’t eat bread I don’t eat yogurt and I took a sensitivity test and got no results on gut biome. It said that I had no digestive issues to note so I don’t believe that these things are healthy. You just don’t destroy your gut health in the first place, then you don’t need all these other things. Stay away from processed foods, breads, grains, sugar. I am carnivore and my gut health is in perfect condition. My triglycerides are 90 my HDL is 62.5 and my VLDL is 18. I don’t care about LDL because particle size is what matters but triglycerides matter more.
Stay away from antibiotics too. This is never mentioned
Not everyone system is made to eat just meat, I got very constipated with eat, immediately start gane pounds like crazy, heavy to the point I can’t walk. What it works for someone no necessarily works for other people.
Be careful; animals are so mistreated and diseased. I feel so much better when I’m eating my greens.
Please be careful of doing keto longer than a few months - especially if you are a post menopausal women. An animal keto diet will end up with your cholesterol slowly going up dangerously after a year or two, and you will be missing out on enough fibre. Please, please, be careful - the initial great results of getting off of the processed sugars and other rubbish, become superseded by the problems of filling up on animals fats and proteins and not getting enough plant nutrients and particularly fibre.
Dr Ben Bickman who specialises in the metabolism and fat, spoke of alullose negating the fructose in fruits and fruit drinks which causes spikes in insulin levels, and which can lead to insulin resistance over time. Insulin is what causes our fat cells to hang onto fat. Lowering insulin spikes after eating bad carbs and fructose leads to weight loss. Exercising after eating also reduces insulin spikes.
I’ve also read that we can increase the resistant starch in foods like potatoes, pasta, rice etc, by cooking then chilling or freezing, then reheating and eating. Our bodies can’t digest resistant starches but our good gut bacterias thrive on them.
Is milk kefir healthy? I Vita-mix it with frozen blueberries and a date each morning.
That sounds fine to me. I don’t think milk is good for us adult humans, but i believe the bacteria in the kefir at least helps with the lactose and perhaps digesting it. Some may argue goat milk kefir is better, but whatever, seems all the same to me, since it’s derived from an animal. I would say this is 100% better than having coco puffs everyday, no. Also smoothies are fine because it has the fiber still. But I’m no healthcare pro, so…. Best 🌱

Diet sodas are arguable. If u are a healthy individual yes ofc don't drink it. But if u are a 300 pound person tryna lose weight drinking Litres of full sugar fizzy drinks and then switch to diet instead, can be very beneficial
U so right same ítem diffrent maker but they all have diffrent ingredience.
Yet statistically, diet only accounts for 10% of dis-ease. There’s far too much demonization of food - especially more affordable food. Social determinants have a colossal effect on our health. Far more than any bread with have on us. Food is minuscule in the grand scheme of things. More than WHAT you eat, the RELATIONSHIP that you have to food is far more imperative and effects everything from digestion to nutritional value to the amount of stress that we elicit from being so pedantic in what we consume. Too many people die from cancer and it wasn’t from eating the “wrong” foods. It’s tremendous psychological and social stress.

“We fermented wine we made bread” - NO - we fermented grapes and made wine and we fermented grain and made bread. Whole grapes, whole grains, that are fermented before being made into wine and bread, or as being made into wine and bread. Don’t eat bread that isn’t naturally fermented and made from whole-grain. At least if you want to be eating real food the way it was made and helped mankind developed for thousands of years.
Ummm, people didn't ferment the whole grain, they ground it into flour first then used a starter for sourdough or liquid yeast starter.
@@MicukoFeltonwhen you use a starter that is what starts the fermentation process - the starter historically was fermented flour or grain added to fresh ground flour thereby fermenting it - yeast except wild yeast came much later

Does he talk about IBS type C and good food por it in his book?
Where is his support for the claim that artificial sweeteners damage our gut health or "metabolism" and this is somehow worse than the issues with full sugar sodas? All studies on this have been in rodents, with extremely high doses of artificial sweetener (comparable to consuming thousands of cans of soda for a human), and the results were actually inconclusive. They just noticed a change in gut microbiome, they can't determine whether the change is positive or negative. Tons of things you consume can change your gut microbiome, it doesn't mean they're automatically bad, nor do we even know if this actually occurs in humans or not, it's not been sufficiently studied at all. Also, obesity has serious measurable negative impacts to health, so why are we assuming that consuming soda with sugar and becoming obese is somehow better? This is an insane claim with no real backing in the research.
Do what I did cut carbs no rice bread eggs and pasta just eat fruit drink water walking then watch it fall off !! Watermelon the best !!!😅
That sounds unhealthy ngl. Unless someone is overweigh.
Don’t think we are a society of weight loss. I think we have progressed onto health. We are Society that is trying to get healthy. Weight loss is secondary. It comes naturally after we quit eating all the garbage. I shop the periphery of the store I do not go down, isles ever, I think people have gotten smart, especially as older generations who went through that no fat but full of sugar and grains. The cookies we could eat because they were fat free the candy we could eat because they were fat free. It didn’t work we are fatter and sicker because of it. They told us no salt. It causes hypertension which it does not. Our bodies need that our bodies need salt. They lied to us. When you restrict or remove certain foods from your diet, you want them even more. It is a mind game you do have to be mindful. But you also have to realize the effect that these foods are having on your body and people don’t do that. The reason I quit eating certain foods is because of the effect they were having on my body that I was just done with. I was over the joint pain. I was done with the chronic diarrhea and now I am much much better because I went back to the basics. Our ancestors eat meat. They didn’t have sweet apples and sweet, bananas, and fake lettuces.
I disagree. Grains raise insulin no matter what grain it is whether it’s modern or ancient. In ancient times they were able to eat the breads they made wherever they were because they weren’t buying ultra processed foods and drinks from the stores. It’s all they had. They had milk they had meat they had some vegetables and fruits. Not the man-made kind you see in the store. Their health was so much better. Adding any grain to your diet is just throwing fuel on the fire.
True, grains = insulin-resistance and inflammation creating a cascade of negative effects throughout the body. People have an emotional attachment to bread, grains, like a teddy bear, or a comfort blanket. Brain studies have also shown that refined grain (milled wheat berry), activates the same part of the brain as morphine and the opioid receptors. Flour addiction, you dont hear about it.
I doubt our ancestors were healthier

Come on, you think they didn't enjoy eating berries? Lighten up
If food was not also enjoyed, we would never have combined items, put herbs and spices onto our foods, nor would we have ever cooked anything. Nor would we have taste buds! Do you also believe that people through the ages have only had sex for procreation, and not enjoyment? I believe it could be the other way around - our taste buds (enjoyment) have LED us to find foods that have been useful to us.

Until you are a Type 1 Diabetic and see what this man say's and how these foods spike our blood sugars it makes sense. Since the 50's the rise of Overweight and Diabetes is scary.

Yep. Checking my bloods regularly showed me that high glycaemic foods and fruits ie carbs cause me a problem,... So first Atkins, then keto and now carnivore and never felt better. Fruit only when in season, carbs once a week, exercise and fasting regularly keeps my weight stable and stacks of energy. At 77 I have enough get up and go to do an hour's weight training daily at the gym. Most people I think are carb addicts, like some commenters occasionally appearing here!

Quantity doesn’t matter when you’re eating all the other crap during the day and during the week. It adds up you think or a little piece of bread here oh, a little scoop of pasta there. But this is on a daily and hourly basis all week all month all the time. Who just eats one thing and doesn’t go back for more or to the next thing and the next thing. All of these foods cause a disruption of your signals.Grehlin and leptin. Do you want to talk about insulin resistance. You also have grehlin and leptin resistance.
My doctor said to me anything if large quantity is not good for your health, even it’s considered good thing, anything if small quantity is not big deal even it’s considered bad😂
And yet in the UK we are charged a sugar levy for buying 'non diet' 'no sugar' drinks. We're also told we should swap meat for a plant based / vegetarian meal at least once a week 🤦♀️ Why are we being told we need to have these things , that they are better for us, and yet it's just the opposite you say , as we also get charged money if we disagree and want the full fat version of these drinks, so therefore our choice is made for us. 🤦♀️🤷♀️
i'm thinking the spices in chai might alter this equation.
David Sinclair recommends eating only 75% of usual amounts of food. We eat too much. Weight Watchers main message is portion control. And then the only bread worth eating is real sourdough, which one can make at home.
Feast and famine cycles are natural, too.
He didn't make it clear enough if sourdough was a healthier type of bread.
It is clear what we should eat to stay healthier but for example , those who do physical work every day need meat because they simple could not survive on plant- based foods in the long term. It's not about me.❤
Right
Wrong. 8+ years vegan working 100+ a week with two highly active jobs(farming+ bulk weight delivery). Get the right fats and carbs for energy, and plenty fruit and veg to clean. Stay Blessed I will too😊. If one isn't lazy and highly conscious no need to put death and cruelty in our temple. Thou shall not kill- most seem to forget this through their diet
@@IAMLove33 Didn’t Jesus tell them where to cast their nets to catch more fish! He didn’t seem to have any problem eating fish or animals to survive!
To me that was all about using the right side of your brain, the side that leads you to Spirit or God. Left brain gets caught in thought which then creates separation from All, from the Divine. While casting to the right side gets you in creative mode or flow state to Be Still and realize Oneness with the Divine. Then at that point one will create what he/she desires as it's then realized we are all Creators. Enjoy, Celebrate you are already whole and complete 😊 You are Loved, Stay Blessed, All is Grace
@@IAMLove33 Very nice words,peace to you as well!
I make my own homemade bread that’s all u have to do. I make homemade pancakes too.
Thank you for this shorter clip... I can't do 2 hr videos.
My husband is a diabetic and drinks coke zero but he started having some gut issues, I need to go tell him about diet soda and the effect on gut health now. He will not be happy at all because that's the only thing he drinks besides water. Oh well.
I drink non alcohol beer. Selection bhubtx
Sodastream might help,maybe adding a bit of juice for flavor
He says a little bread🤔 The greeks eat bread with every meal , religiously, they are among the longest lived people in the world 🤔
Having listened to this, it's really not nuanced and complicated is it? There's real bread, real rice, real wine, etc. and then there's the cheap, fake version that in fact isn't food, it's counterfeit.
Stop pussy-footing around to avoid offending people; people should be offended and outraged about how they've been fooled. That's how you motivate people to take their power back.

I seem to be OK with Zevia, stevia sweetened soda.

Bro!
Taste gross.
It is less sweet but your brain is not stupid. Any time it taste sweet it doesn’t say oh that’s fake. It just knows that it’s sweet and sent a message to the pancreas to release insulin in the thought that glucose is coming. And glucose doesn’t come, and now you have the fat Storing hormone and other damaging effects of insulin running around your body. It’s called the cephalic phase.
What about all the wheat grains introduced after 1967? These don't fall in the category of grains that we've been eating since the dawn of civilization. How bad for health are they?
Your liver can only process 30 grams of carboydrates daily.
