    I am no expert on cancer, but I do concur with your opinions. I believe the Mediterranean diet is so healthy because it excludes ultra processed foods. I note that most everyone, including me, tends to read their own biases into the broad categories associated with the med diet. I try to look at some more specifics of most prevelently traditionaly eaten in the Mediterranean and Sardinia (blue zone) in particular. For example, I note that the most used fruits such as olives, avacodoes, lemons, pompia, and prickly pears are low sugar. The most used are high fat. Grapes (high sugar) are fermented into wine. Cannonau is very high in resveritrol. Dairy is usually fermented. Pecorino cheese is A2, probiotic and high in C15 fatty acid. I also note how many of their vegies are high in inulin: garlic, onions, spiny artichoke, and asparagus. Many of the whole grains are made into sourdough bread that is actually fermented.

    • @ronsteward9355
      @ronsteward9355 8 дней назад

      Because of those observations with related studies indicating benefits, I have added olive oil, avacodoes, Pecarino cheese, and asparagus to my diet. I'm still a no on grains. I think Dr. Pradip Jamnadas, MD is correct on his speculation of man's historical adaptation and change in diet. More and more we are getting away from the natural diet our metabolism was perfectly tuned to. Wild animals and primitive/traditional people such as the Inuit, Sami and Maasai do not have most of the obesity and chronic diseases endemic in todays modern society. ... until they adopted diets based on high production agriculture and processed foods. Milled grains have greatly increased surface area with small partical size increasing rapidity of digestion. Unfortunately, grains have also been avaible in too much abundance all the time. If you have a healthy metabolism you can tolerate a wide range of diet. But if you err in excess and loose that as I have, you need to be more restrictive. At least until you recover.

      The best book I have found on guidance for a healthy diet and lifestyle is Good Energy by Casey Means, MD. She exposes the corruption of our medical system for both treatment and study driven by profit. Like Phillip Ovadia MD (Stay off my Operating Table), she embrasses a variety of diets that can bring you to the same healthy state. I was surprised to find she explained how fiber fed microbiom produces postbiotic beneficial nutrients that match the same ones prevelent in a carnivore diet. To expand on her discussion of Big Pharma influence, you can read RFK Jr's book, which sites many whistle blowers and independent investigations. To expand on her mention of some of the food producers' influence, you can read Catherine Shanahan MD's book Dark Calories.

      I’m pretty particular about 90% of the time on the grains I use. I really prefer sprouted grains, organic when I can. I don’t eat a ton, but usually when I do, it’s mostly with dinner, with plenty of protein, veggies and healthy fats. It’s kind of become second nature to me. As for cheeses, pecorino is one of my faves, I prefer aged cheeses in general.

Lunch is either high protein leftovers or a sandwich with Ezekiel bread, organic turkey lunchmeat, cheese, maybe a slice of turkey bacon with veggies or fruit.

    Anyone declaring that "it is what it is" has a specific meaning is devoid of imagination. This monologue has nothing to do with that mean-anything, mean-nothing phrase. It's something to vibrate the vocal cords when unable to think of something meaningful. It's easier to say than "these are the circumstances that we either decide to accept as is, or work to alter" as if expressing a preference for either side could be taken badly. So we stick to neutral and hope the recipient takes it well, and doesn't call out the speaker to explain. It's like the Spanish "es lo que hay". It's like 'that's how it is', or 'that's what's available". (Implied: take it or leave it) The words themselves have meaning but these flexible phrases can mean almost anything. And so... they fill in the silence. It is what it is. 😂

      I think it means exactly what it says.....and it's a lot shorter than having "these are the circumstances that we either decide to accept as is, or work to alter" tattooed on my arm"🤣 I both choose to accept them as is, because I have no choice, and work to alter them in the future to the extent I can. I think it does have a specific meaning, but it's a specific meaning that's open to interpretation....if that makes sense. I never really thought a lot about the interpretation of it, I knew what I meant by it, until I got the tattoo....The deep discussions this tattoo has sparked both surprise and entertain me. It's got a specific meaning to a lot more people than you'd think.

      @@SimplyResilientMe I get the feeling of what you're saying. But it's hard to logically argue that the phrase has a specific meaning yet can be interpreted differently - unless simultaneously postulating that any interpretation other than that specific meaning is erroneous. Which would be a logical opinion, but not fact, as long as there's anyone else who assigns it a different specific meaning. For some of us, the meaning is fluid and context-dependent. In other words, we don't assign it a specific meaning because we are aware that the meaning we intend if we speak it or the meaning we perceive if we hear it depends entirely on the situation at hand and the surrounding conversation. It's not often found in serious conversation. Sometimes we use it to poke fun, or to make light of a situation. The beauty of keeping the phrase present is that it can bring to your mind whatever meaning you find helpful at the moment. Health problems weigh particularly heavy on the scale of impact, and positivity in thought and action have a beneficial effect.

      I agree that the meaning is fluid and context dependent and I agree that it can bring to mind whatever one finds helpful at the moment. but I disagree that it's not often found in serious conversation. All the said, you're kinda proving my point... people fall into one camp or another, it's all about perspective, and it sparks some interesting conversations, which I love. i think its one of the reasons its my favorite tattoo, not just for the meaning I attribute to it, but because of the conversations I've had because of it. So for that, thank you. I enjoy the back and forth.

      @@SimplyResilientMe Oh, I never disagreed with you about people falling into "camps". It's how we've been coaxed to act. There's "us" and there's "them". On pretty much any concern. And it's never been more prominent than now with the two main political parties. People may have only one main issue that they feel really concerned about but they're going to align with the party that seems to view that issue similarly. The other ones are bad and that's all there is to it; I don't want to hear how they're better on other issues. But I mean pick any topic and there's people with opposite viewpoints, both sure theirs is right and the other wrong. Give and take is rare.

    You can say that only when you've done what you can to make sure it isn't that again. Sure, the past can't be changed, and must be accepted, but you should always analyze what you could have done and change your method of operation in the future.

    • @SimplyResilientMe
      @SimplyResilientMe 3 месяца назад

      I agree. But sometimes whatever it is would happen no matter what we do, and all we can do is accept it and make the best of it. The key, in my opinion, is making the best of it.

      Speaking from experience, while it is good to analyze how to ensure it never happens again, sometimes it leads to overthinking every little thing you do to prevent it. That can cause a lot more paranoia or anxiety about the situation as a whole. Saying “it is what it is” can help to get you off that path of overanalyzing.

    @cheezycatnip8352 3 месяца назад

    Similarly:"It is what it is", for me, is acceptance! Acceptance is not apathy, unless you are apathetic, it is a marker of what is now and how you got here, the trials and obstacles. It is said and done without judgement and it comes with a will or openess to try and see the things we could and more improtantly what we could NOT control that brought us to this point. It facilitates the not hating ourselves or others for 'it'. its a chance. "It is what it is", is not, "what it will be" or "always be" that is apathy. "it is what it is", is a marking, a nod to, a pointing at, and if you want it to be, a starting of the next "what can be" within our own control with the caveat that things will come that sit outside of us, "it is what it is" reminds us we are connected, but also strong enough or even stubborn enough to carry on living a full life. Thankyou for a great vid and a chance to share.

Such different interpretation though. You helped me see there is another thought process to see. I am with you. "It" may be, but recognize the situation and do something... Be Positive!
