    You can boil your potatoes after soaking them for a few hours. Then dice them and refrigerate and it converts most of the carbohydrates into Resistant Starches, so it does not spike your blood sugar. Potatoes Salad that has been refrigerated overnight is a low carb meal with minerals and vitamins. If you add boiled eggs and you add a whole new level of proteins and nutrients. Add fermented pickles and then you get a bonus for your digestion. Add celery and you get another bonus for your digestion and more nutrients. We make our mayonnaise from Organic single source Olive Oil (omega 3) and Organic egg, which is more Omega Oil 3,6 & 9) as well as more proteins and nutrients. I personally use three different types of fermented pickles in our potato salad. Bread N Butter, Dill and Kosher Dill and they are all diced up separately and then mixed in.

      @@Me-mn4nw Avocado Oil has a (13 to 1) high Omega 6 to Omega 3 ratio, so we use Olive Oil for the Omega 3 ratio improvement. Omega 6 (while has some benefits) is inflammatory to the body. We do use some Avocado Oil for taste improvement in the mayonnaise we make but most of the oil we use is Olive Oil and some MCT Oil with just enough Avocado Oil to improve tase.
      The oil ratios I use are for specific reasons. They lower inflammation and also help keep in Ketosis to reduce the Carbohydrate effects on the body. I just wanted to keep the comment as short as I could, so I did not go into the oil mix we use in our mayonnaise.
      Our recipe for mayonnaise.
      Organic single source Olive Oil
      Organic MCT Coconut Oil
      Organic Avocado Oil
      Organic Garlic Powder
      Organic 365 Onion Powder
      Organic 365 Onion Fine Granules
      Organic Parika (sometimes)
      Organic Free-Range Chicken Eggs
      Organic M2 Butter from Pastured Cows (sometimes as a thickener and flavor)
      Organic Himalayan Salt
      To convert our mayo into Coleslaw or Potato Salad Dressing.
      more Organic Garlic Powder
      more Organic Onion Powder
      more Organic Onion Granules
      Organic Apple Cider Vinegar with mother
      Rice Wine Vinegar
      Spring Water or Distilled Water
      Organic Lemon Juice (tiny amount)
      Organic Lime Juice (tiny amount)
      Side note.
      For every 3.5 grams of fat, we subtract 1 Carbohydrate. This is because the fat binds to the Carbs and slows absorbtion over time. Carbs over time is not the same as Instant Absorbed Carbs affecting the body.
      Example of a ratio.
      25 grams Carbohydrates
      10 Fiber
      24.5 grams of fat
      25 - 10 = 15 - 7 = 8
      That meal would be 8 carbohydrates.
      MCT Oil triggers a slight Ketosis affect.
      This means the 8 carbohydrates would be mostly ignored by the body. This triggered Ketosis affect can be increased by eating black currants and black grapes before dinner while we are cooking. The Ketones are produced by consuming black currants, black grapes and MCT oil. Ketones tell the Mitochondria to ignore the carbohydrates in food and not to use it for energy or store it as fat, so it goes back out of the body.
      My Carbohydrate limit over a day of eating is about 35 carbohydrates (so at about 34 carbs I stay in Ketosis) as I have a high metabolism. My wife's carb limit is about 15 carbohydrates. Our mayonnaise recipe is made to keep us in Ketosis and reduce inflammation, taste better and eliminate all the commercial preservatives and bad oils in store mayonnaise.
      As you see, getting into fats and oils can get into details that would make a post much longer. Most people will not want to read a post this long.

    By the way, I love all the vegetables that you mentioned, but I must say I do shy away from them because there’s so many people saying that they’re bad for you and spike your blood sugar with the lectins

    • @DrSusanBrown
      @DrSusanBrown  6 місяців тому +2

      Concerns about lectins in root vegetables are understandable, as these proteins have received attention for potential negative health effects. While some research suggests certain lectins may contribute to health issues, it's important to note that not all lectins are problematic. Many people safely consume lectin-containing foods regularly. It is recommended to steam or roast root vegetables to reduce lectin levels.

    I love potatoes and eat them mainly for their potassium. Plus they're very tasty! However I have heard that alkalizing foods are not necessarily helpful for your bones. I personally don't think I'll ever find an answer because no matter what I try I have problems with food supplements exercise Etc. In fact, one time I drank an 8 oz bottle of alkaline water thinking it was good for me and within 8 hours I was on my way to an urgent care because of a severe ear infection. I couldn't see anyone because they were closed so I suffered through the night until I got to my doctor the next day and he said he'd never seen an infection so bad I had to have a wick put in my ear and double antibiotics to get it under control. I didn't understand what happened until I remembered I drank that alkaline water and that was the only thing that I had done differently that day! It's absolutely crazy the things that happen to me.

(In addition to a full mind-body protocol including exercise, digestion, stress relief, etc.) 'Alkaline water' sold in stores doesn't truly alkalize your body, which you can learn more about in our video here: ua-cam.com/video/VMZtvLz5OWE/v-deo.html I'm sure it was just a coincidence that your ear infection occurred the same time you purchased this water, as it doesn't change your bodies pH, though that sounds like a terrible experience!

      @DrSusanBrown  6 місяців тому +1

      For individuals who are sensitive to solanine or have conditions such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) or irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), it may be advisable to peel potatoes to reduce the risk of irritation. However, for many people, consuming potato skins in moderation as part of a balanced diet is generally well-tolerated and can provide additional nutrients and fiber.
      As with any dietary choice, it's essential to listen to your body and make decisions based on your individual needs and tolerances. If you have concerns about solanine or other dietary factors, consulting with a healthcare professional or registered dietitian can provide personalized guidance.

    • @DrSusanBrown
      @DrSusanBrown  6 місяців тому

      Yes! it is generally okay and even beneficial to eat the skin on potatoes, as it contains a significant portion of the potato's nutrients and dietary fiber. Potato skins are rich in fiber, vitamins, and minerals, such as potassium and vitamin C. Additionally, the skin provides antioxidants that can contribute to overall health and may help reduce the risk of chronic diseases.
      However, it's essential to ensure that the potato skins are thoroughly washed to remove any dirt or pesticide residue before consumption. If you choose to eat potato skins, consider baking, roasting, or boiling potatoes with the skin intact to retain the maximum nutritional value.

    Potatoes are also high in carbohydrates. The damage they cause outweigh their benefits.

    • @DrSusanBrown
      @DrSusanBrown  7 місяців тому +3

      You're right, potatoes are rich in carbohydrates, which is an essential macronutrient for energy. However, it's important to consider the whole nutritional profile of foods. Potatoes are not only alkalizing; they're also packed with fiber (especially in the skin), vitamins (like Vitamin C and B6), minerals (such as potassium), and antioxidants.
      When consumed as part of a balanced diet, and especially when prepared in healthy ways (think baked or boiled rather than fried), the benefits of potatoes can certainly be a part of a healthy lifestyle. Moderation and preparation method are key. Plus, the type of carbohydrates matters-potatoes provide complex carbohydrates, which are beneficial for sustained energy release.
      It's all about balance and variety in our diets to ensure we're getting a wide range of nutrients. Thanks for bringing up a critical aspect of the discussion on potatoes!

    • @DrSusanBrown
      @DrSusanBrown  7 місяців тому +1

      It's true that potatoes, especially starchy varieties like russet or white potatoes, are relatively high in carbohydrates, it's essential to consider the broader context when evaluating their impact on health. Not all potatoes are equal and Sweet potatoes are very nutrient-rich! Potatoes, despite being high in carbohydrates, also provide essential nutrients such as potassium, vitamin C, vitamin B6, and dietary fiber. These nutrients are crucial for various bodily functions, including heart health, immune function, and digestion. Choosing whole, unprocessed potatoes and consuming them with the skin intact can maximize their nutritional value. Also, all things in moderation. We are not suggesting you eat potatoes every day but a nice addition to consider when looking to expand your nutrient pallet.

      Overall, while these potential toxins are a concern, it's important to remember that the vast majority of foods are safe for consumption when sourced, handled and prepared properly. By following recommended food safety practices, such as storing foods correctly, washing produce thoroughly, and making informed choices about the foods we consume, we can reduce our exposure to potential toxins and enjoy a healthy diet.

      We think more information is needed there! Potatoes skins themselves are not poisonous. They actually have many nutrients and fiber. However, it is recommended they be stored in cool dark places. When they are exposed to light then they produce Solanine, which consumed in large amounts can cause mild toxicity and stomach and digestive issues. It's always good to research and find out more information!

      Potatoes aren't all bad! Opt for healthier cooking methods such as baking, boiling, or roasting with minimal added fats or oils, and avoid frying or preparing them in high-fat, high-calorie dishes like potato chips or loaded fries. Additionally, be cautious of portion sizes, as excessive consumption of any food can contribute to weight gain. Overall, when enjoyed as part of a balanced diet, potatoes can be a nutritious and delicious addition to your meals. Potatoes are rich in several essential nutrients, including potassium, vitamin C, vitamin B6, and fiber. Potassium is important for heart health and regulating blood pressure, while vitamin C is an antioxidant that supports immune function and skin health. :)

      Exactly what is Dr. Brown 's alternative?
      I don't mean to be mean. I'm autistic and often speak without much thought first.
      Still, for a doctor to recommend eating potatoes, which likely hold down first place in the starch category, flies in the face of all I have learned about foods.
      I'm 75 and have eaten meat only for going on 3 years, and that alone has accomplished miracles.
      Also, I had an allergy panel done, and out of 103 known allergies, most plant-based, I am violently allergic to all except 3 trees that grow in Northern China.
      I'm not sure if/where potatoes fits into that list.

    • @DrSusanBrown
      @DrSusanBrown  6 місяців тому

      Thank you for sharing your insights! Indeed, the body meticulously maintains its internal pH within a very narrow range, critical for optimal functioning and survival. Significant deviations from this range can have dire consequences.
      Dr. Brown and other scientists introduce the concept of "chronic low-grade metabolic acidosis," or "acid stress," to describe a subtle shift towards acidity within the normal blood pH range, specifically near the lower limit of 7.35 pH. This condition suggests an elevated acid load but remains within the non-life-threatening zone.
      The normal range for blood pH is 7.35 to 7.45. Consistently hovering near 7.35 can indicate "chronic low-grade metabolic acidosis" or recently termed "Acid Stress." Though not immediately life-threatening, this slight acidic shift can lead to significant health effects. Dr. Lynda Frassetto highlights that even minimal shifts within the normal range can profoundly impact the body.
      Research indicates that modern diets largely contribute to this acid-forming state, which is linked to a series of negative biochemical reactions and health issues, such as:
      - Decreased ATP (energy) production efficiency
      - Impaired enzyme function
      - Increased bone breakdown and decreased bone formation
      - Muscle loss and nitrogen wasting
      - Calcium loss in urine
      - Kidney disease and kidney stones
      - Diabetes mellitus
      - Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease
      - Impaired mitochondrial function
      - Reduced protein synthesis efficiency
      - Decreased cerebral energy levels
      - Increased cortisol levels
      - Suppression of growth hormone and other pituitary hormones
      - Elevated risk of various degenerative diseases
      - Increased all-cause mortality
      These concerns arise even at the lower end of the normal blood pH range (around 7.35) , underscoring the importance of addressing this "Acid Stress."

    • @DrSusanBrown
      @DrSusanBrown  2 місяці тому

      Hello! Thanks for watching and for your question! Cooling boiled potatoes increases their resistant starch, beneficial for gut health and blood sugar. Reheating may reduce this effect, but they remain nutritious. For maximum resistant starch, enjoy them cold or at room temperature, though reheated potatoes still contribute healthily to your diet.

    They are starvation foods and very toxic, I have Oxalate poisoning from eating vegan and drinking superfood smoothies, small red potatoes are lower in Oxalates and less likely to cause kidney stones. I can only eat meat fish eggs and some dairy, anything else causes me arthritic pain and makes me sick, even seasoning.
