The orange skin thing happened to my mom when I was a kid! She was constantly eating carrots as a snack and we noticed a slight orange tint. She cut back and it went away pretty quickly.
Fun fact, blueberry smoothies that use actual blueberries will do the "turn your poo green" thing, too! The reason for this is because of Anthocyanins, which are actually usable as a pH indicator. They're bluish-purple when their surroundings are acidic, but a dull forest green color when their surroundings are alkaline. And wouldn't you know it, but the intestines use alkaline substances to protect themselves by neutralizing the stomach acid that your body uses to digest your food.
As someone who really loves red velvet cake, I can definitely sympathize with the kids and parents from the berry cereal part. Nothing more horrifying than thinking your dying of internal bleeding when you're just suffering from a bit too much food dyeing instead.
Hey Mat! I'm gluten intolerant and made gluten free pancakes the other night. However I didn't have regular sugar so I used brown sugar instead. Then I didn't have milk so I mixed water with sour cream. It came out great. What I am saying is you should have a test where you make food with ONLY substitutions and see how far you can take it without people noticing.
Hey MatPat, I have an idea for a Food Theory. Is it possible to survive by just the water in food and not drinking any water? Which foods would be best for this scenario and would there be any consequences for eating too much too meet your water intake needs?
I once ate so much watermelon in one sitting that my pee was clear. Watermelon would be a good food in my opinion. I didn't have anything else out of the ordinary. Was just really full because of the volume of watermelon in my stomach, but that was over quickly since it was a lot of water and sugar that is easy to digest.
When I was a baby, I was a big fan of carrot baby food (as well as some of the other orange ones like mango). My parents have pictures of me with a little orange nose. 😂
As a baby I had orange skin! I ate so many veggies that my skin turned orange. At the time my family was stationed in Germany. She freaked out, being a new mom and all, and took me to the doctor. It's a good story to look back and laugh at now.
As a baby, my son''s favorite thing to eat was the carrot baby food, turning down pretty much anything else. Yeah, his skin turned a light orange. It looked a bit like jaundice and I freaked out, rushing him to the ER. After the scare was over, i recall that I could see the doctor and nurse holding back smirks while being polite, telling me I was just feeding him too much carrot.
@@takobe7651 Troll. When you have a first child, and you actually care about the well being your child, it doesn't take much to get you worried. Maybe this doesn't apply to you.
That happened to my cousin as well, but fortunately his mom had a medical doctor (her dad/my grandpa) living in the same house, so he was able to tell her it wasn't jaundice.

The carrot thing happened to my coworker when she was pregnant with her twins. She’d eat a whole bag of baby carrots over the course of our shift. Ironically, both girls are allergic to carrots 🤣
Nice story, interesting fact: Beta-Carotine (the orange making thing) is a precursor to Vitamin A. High(-ish) levels of Vitamin A can be very dangerous during pregnancies. Thats why pregnant women are told to stay away from liver and retinoids (topical creams for skin). High in pure Vitamin A. But the thing is, when you eat a lot of carrots it will not immediately increase vitamin A levels in your body. When your body senses that it has enough Vitamin A, it stops converting Beta-Carotine into Vitamin A. TLDR; Beta-Carotine turns into Vitamin A but can be stopped converting when levels are sufficient, pregnant women should not eat things high in Vitamin A. Carrots are fine bcz of previously stated mechanism.
Its kinda like my mom ate so much chocolate whilst pregnant i dont like usually like chocolate that much and prefer other candies ive had enough🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Even for easter i dont eat much chocolate lololol
i remember hearing that gatorade was initially made with much less sugar and was specifically meant for athletes who were doing intense exercise at the same time as consuming the mineral rich drink. problem was that your average person also wanted to drink it as a flavored drink and the company found a bigger market in this. so they changed their product to be sweeter and such to make it taste better to the average person looking for a flavored drink that made them feel like they were drinking a "health" drink. marketed as something that fit people consume made people associate the drink as a health drink despite the fact that it wasn't meant to be a health drink in that way. but that mistaken association created a larger market and made more money for the company so there you go.
The orange skin thing was me as a toddler! I was a very unfortunate baby so I developed many allergies and wasn't even able to drink my own mom's milk, so I had very expensive carrot based baby food. When I became old enough to also chew, I would eat boiled carrots. Not only did my skin turn orange, but so did my blonde hair at the time. Only once some allergies dissapeared and I was able to eat more did I finally turn back to a normal not orange kid
If u wanna do another gatorade focused food theory, learn a bit about gatorade's effect in SFN (small fiber neuropathy) and more specifically, the hypotension parts of it. I was told a couple of yrs ago, after my sfn diagnosis, that drinking gatorade zero was the best way to treat the hypotension that comes from my small fiber neuropathy. Probably due to the electrolytes they supply. But yeah, it Definitely helped me. If I drank a 12 oz bottle of gatorade zero a day, it made my heart palpitation issue almost disappear and my dizzy spells/lightheaded issues got extremely lessened. But I got "sick of" the taste of gatorade n drinking more woulda made me throw up. It helps my body but makes my digestive system hate me more than it already does. It was the best treatment. But like any food, consuming too much makes it disgusting.
was it the sugar that was helping, or the electrolytes? because you can buy electrolyte powder to add to water that taste of almost nothing, and assuming the sugar wasn't necessary for the treatment, it's way better to have less sugar daily as well
If I am really symptomatic from my dysautonomia, I drink Gatorade zero as well. I also have small fiber neuropathy. It helps...I replaced maybe 500ml of my 2L of water with Gatorade Zero. I am also so tired of it, though.
Actually I heard (from someone who likes to read studies a lot) that the name of Gatorade was because the sports team was called "Gator" and it was "aid" for them. So it was called Gatoraid but scared of legal implications, they changed it to Gatorade
I thought it was rooted from the word lemonADE, but the players were the gators so they called it gatorade as a joke because it was their own little juice.
I noticed this year that if I drink enough maple-flavored coffee, my sweat smells like pancake syrup. In the spring, I was on a pretty strict meal plan but drinking coffee all day. I had several cups of target brand’s Maple Bourbon coffee (it’s delicious) every day for literally a couple months, and after a while I noticed that my sweat smelled mildly like pancake syrup. It went away after I ran out and couldn’t buy it anymore (it’s seasonal). Then a couple weeks ago I was drinking a ton of Dunkin Donuts brand maple or Belgian waffle or whatever coffee. Went through the whole bag of grounds in under a week (I don’t drink nearly enough water). I got to the point of smelling mildly like pancakes again right around when I was about to run out
I thought I was the only one!!! I don’t use sugar in my coffee either, I think the artificial flavors and smells just don’t break down that much before your body uses it. I’ve been drinking a maple syrup flavored coffee that I got from Publix any time I’m at work, which usually has me sweating a lot bc I’m a kennel tech and have to walk dogs in the mornings and even though I definitely don’t smell great, I always smell that tinge of maple
What you need is an _indicator_ that is sprayed on the body when it is sweating. It can react with the AMS garlic sweat and change color. It might be very subtle, or only visible with a UV light as well. But once there is _any_ color that's different from the skin, Photoshop, or the _secondary color correction_ feature of your video editor can turn it into the neon colors you craved.
I want to see an episode where Mat and Steph make sour candies at home in order to create the most sour candy ever and analyze what makes them so sour (citric acid, Vitamin C, etc.)
they will absolutely obliterate their tongues if they did that lol thats dangerous. I only have to eat a full pack of sour patch kids to have a chapped tongue I cant imagine doing a scientificaly accurate most sour candy in the world😖😖😖
btw theres a disclaimer on the currently most sour candy on the market, "Toxic Waste" candy, to not eat more than one or two pieces at a time to not destroy your mouth.
I used to be weirded out when i tried experimenting drinking mostly gatorade to keep hydrated while working because of the electrolytes promoting, and after a while made my urine radioactive green when i was expecting clear for being better hydrated, but now figure it was dyes that didnt absorb
8:24 My little brother actually swallowed one of those Lego tires when I was 4 and he was a few months old. It did actually come out the other end 2 days later with no physical damage done to it, just that it had been through his digestive system.
Matt is just a person who makes science SO INTERESTING to the intros the actual science to the outro even though I don’t understand the science (haha) but thanks Matt for making these channels so interesting to watch.
as someone who drank only Gatorade for many years I feel like I should be able to answer this question, but the only one I drank was the one that was literally clear 💀
How many did you have. I drank 1-2 a day for 8 months straight and it caused me to have seizures due to way too many electrolytes. Had many tests to find that out. I stopped drinking them for almost 3 months now and haven't had a seizure since. Just be careful on the intake of sports drinks. Just a warning because seizures are not very fun
If you drink maybe a cup or two of the lime lemon coolaid, and you will pee neon green very fast. Happens to me every time and the first time i was freaked out 🤣
Thanks Mat, thanks truly. I watch your videos because their entertaining to me but other kids my age may not think so, they're so focused on stuff that's is trendy or whatever. I may think your videos are entertaining but they also help me learn more things about the earth and how to do things. Science was always my favorite subject and when I found out my science teacher this year was coaching soccer i joined right away because I love that teacher and I love science. For some reason you remind me of her, you teach things that other teachers such as reading and math wouldn't teach me. People don't need to learn science or civics/social studies but in the end that's where the best teachers come from. You don't need to be a teacher to be a good explainer of things. Thanks MatPat, and I appreciate you helping me learn, truly I'll continue to watch, learn, and enjoy your videos.
You editors have always been top notch, but the visual at 12:23 made me laugh so loud that it scared my cat. Whoever did that one. Thank you for the moment, but my carpet isn't liking the aftermath.
0:18 Happened to my grandma. She legitimately thought she had eaten so much carrot she was turning into a carrot and was so afraid of fully turning into a carrot she stopped eating them all together and hasn’t eaten them in 10 years.
Oh my gosh. Many years ago, I was prescribed those same ultra concentrated garlic pills for really bad acne. I took them faithfully and did see some improvement. Then, my parents sat me down and said they couldn't take the garlic smell anymore. I was upset but they were firm. No more garlic. Haha. Of course, I couldn't smell it but I bet it was awful!
That Powerthirst homage at the beginning really made the fact that I'm in my thirties now sink in... so, thanks for that. I would honestly be surprised if anyone under the age of 21 even remembers that era of flash animations/videos.
I am so glad he's tackling this cuz I've been wondering this since I was a child watching all these Gatorade ads I'm like how did they even do glowing sweat is that even possible?
I had an issue with the changing stool color recently. I bought some cupcakes from Walmart and they used way too much food coloring in the icing. I think whoever made them just put an entire container of food coloring in because eating the cupcakes, anywhere the icing touched was permanently colored for a few hours even after washing my hands.
I’m unsure if MatPat will see this, but I do have an interesting story. One day I had to make stuff with onions and I had to chop quite a few of them. After I was all done with the onions I washed my hands, but the smell of the onions was still there. I tried washing my hands a bit longer, using a soap with a strong smell, and even tried showering. Nothing got rid of the smell and it just stayed for a couple of weeks. It is something that definitely feels like it fits with this episode a bit
I have a food theory idea: trying different types of water to see if they taste different. For example seeing if Fiji water tastes any better than Smart water.
They actually do, it's due to the mineral contents of it. They are usually added for taste and if your faucet has especially hard water another reason it tastes different. Another reason why you don't need to drink gatorade. Distilled water (which is 100% pure) is actually kinda bad tasting by comparison. We don't naturally have access to that purity and want the tiny bit of salt and minerals usually present.
@@Firesgone as someone who has a distiller, nope, distilled water tastes wonderful. it's just like smart water. and yes we would have access to water like that in nature - rainwater!
i own/ operate a drycleaning plant, which means im constantly on the move and sweating alot... alot. i use powdered gatorade regularly, and it helps me keep my oldy joints from cramping. the powdered form seems to be better then the bottles.
I have a small patch of sweat glands om my right cheek (on my face of course) that will sometimes produce blue sweat. It doesn't happen often and only started in my teens. Definitely used to freak me out cuz I thought something was wrong with me 😵
I make cupcakes without oil and with apple sauce instead and give them away as a prank. They always turn people's poo bright green and it's always a hoot to see them debate whether green poo is worth it cause them cupcakes are frickin yummy af 😆
1:00 a detail youre forgetting with that is that the University of Floridas mascot is the Gator. Its a fact most floridians know and as such at least hear in florida while anyone will drink gatorade it is still associated with UF and as such unless something changed recently FSU sells powerade on campus instead due to Seminoles V Gator Rivalry
An add on for all the different coloured light stuff, specific chromophores can absorb specific wavelengths of light (i.e. different colours), which can then cause the molecular structure to change. So if this molecule is bound to a drug, we can take it and get the light into the body to release the drug wherever we want it to be released. It's called photopharmacology, and it's only in its early stages but it's very exciting for the future of controlling drug effects in the body.
I AM SO GLAD to know matpat knows about power thirst XD LOL YASSSS!!!! Cause that is what i was thinking about when i read the thumbnail and it made me even happier to hear him quote some of it lol
Fun fact, I have a friend who was born withou sweat glands besides a few on her palms, she used to play sports year round but now she can only play inside sports and in the winter
You said the word "science" so often I'm surprised you didn't summon Austin. Speaking of which is there ever going to be an episode of THE SCIENCE that is on either Film or Food Theory?
Right from the start of the video, already dropping facts 😂 At field camp, I drank 10oz+ of V8 a day (2+ small cans, to try and help with vitamins and minerals) and by the second week I noticed my skin was a little more orange than normal 😅 At first, I thought it was just from all the desert sun but nope, it was the carrot juice in the V8 🥕🙃🥕
I played sports all my life and as a kid I always wanted to sweat like they did in those old commercials. I always begged my mom to buy me just Gatorade. That marketing worked 😂😂😂
Everyone loves how MatPat hypes you up into believing that the theory could be true, then shoots your hopes and dreams down at the very end explaining all the health risks.
Can you do a theory on how much bird seed can save you from a fall in gravity falls when Stanley is running for mayor he saves dipper and mable then he falls into bird seed
@@TrixyTrixter I think (someone can absolutely correct me) the bird seed would be more displacement than spring force, which would allow for different math
Hey MatPat, I have an idea for a food theory video I really love the lime cucumber Gatorade flat out but the meme of it being bad has really made me start to think what makes the Gatorade flavors taste so different and why do people hate the lime cucumber flavor
Alternative idea: douse yourself in a colored liquid while you’re already sweating to make it *look* colored. It may just be a simple magic trick, but at least (depending on what substance you decide to shower yourself in) it isn’t highly dangerous
Can confirm, as someone who drinks almost exclusively "Cool Blue" Gatorade (Mmm, sugary saline :p) , I've never had me sweat turn blue, but DO regularly have trips to the bathroom where I leave the inside of the bowl painted blue.
Forgot to say that the salts and electrolytes allow you to RETAIN water. That is why it can hydrate you better, because you can pass pure water quickly. How good is Gatorade compared to average water? I don't know and don't think it matters for most of us. Well it does for me as I have heptorenal syndrome and retaining water is bad. Generally though it isn't a make or break difference. An older construction worker who worked down south on roofs and such would always have a jar of pickles. It would snap people up quicker. Take a gulp of pickle juice along with something else like orange or lemonade to help manage the heat. Water isn't the best. Heard ice cold chocolate milk is good in these situations too. Restore some calories with carbs, lipids, and protein while you're at it working hard.
YOOOOO!!! The carrot thing happened to me when I was a kid. I have eczema and dehydrated and my mom read somewhere that carrot makes skin smoother. She'd grind carrots into an awful drink and made me drink that for a long time and that's what made my skin turn orange haha.
5:49 My dad was in the US Air Force during the 1980s, and was stationed in South Korea for a year. The US and South Korean militaries often conducted joint exercises to ensure their forces would coordinate well in the event of an invasion. During those exercises, they would simulate and practice all kinds of situations. Any time the Korean forces would try to sneak up on the American ones, they found them ready and waiting, and couldn't get the element of surprise, no matter how hard they tried. The reason for this is that one of the most popular foods in South Korea is kimchi, which gives the sweat of anyone who eats a lot of it a VERY distinctive smell. The US soldiers could thus SMELL the Korean soldiers approaching them and prepare, no matter how carefully and quietly the Koreans moved!
1:30 Two things: first, not all the essential minerals are electrolytes (but yeah, that's what most of the essential minerals are used for). Of course, some of them can play that role and others, like calcium (which is, of course, used for hard structures like teeth, bones, etc) or iron, which is used in hemoglobin. Second, many people in the developed world do have deficiencies of some nutrients. Sodium, definitely not--considering how much salt most of us have. But potassium? Yeah, that's actually not that rare. Some people like fully grown adult men need as much as 4000 mg, but many people don't quite reach their potassium needs.
When I was a baby my parents fed me a lot of sweet potatoes from a mashed food jar. My skin tinted orange until I was well into my teens and that's exactly what my doctor said it was!
I have an idea for a food theory video I would always hear about the 5 second rule when I was younger meaning if you dropped food on the ground and picked it up after 5 seconds it would still be safe to eat, maybe see if that is actually true and how long you could theoretically wait when food falls on the floor before it becomes unsafe to eat.
When I heard coomassie blue, I was like... what the heck, I use this to stain my SDS-PAGE gels in the lab 😂 So in theory than I can just use the dye to stain my gel but also to obtain blue sweat. Good to know 😝 I was astonished about the fact, that coomassie blue is used as medical treatment. I did not know that. Thanks for the episode 👍
So kind of funny thing happened to me once with Gatorade. I got really sick once and almost anything I ate made my stomach hurt except for Gatorade, and I ended up drinking 7 grape Gatorade in 2 days, and it turned my crap green for about a week afterwards
When this channel started, I thought “how the heck would you make theories about food” and to this day i regret saying that. Good job MatPat, for making tons of theories about food.

it's mainly citric acid
they will absolutely obliterate their tongues if they did that lol thats dangerous. I only have to eat a full pack of sour patch kids to have a chapped tongue I cant imagine doing a scientificaly accurate most sour candy in the world😖😖😖
btw theres a disclaimer on the currently most sour candy on the market, "Toxic Waste" candy, to not eat more than one or two pieces at a time to not destroy your mouth.
I used to be weirded out when i tried experimenting drinking mostly gatorade to keep hydrated while working because of the electrolytes promoting, and after a while made my urine radioactive green when i was expecting clear for being better hydrated, but now figure it was dyes that didnt absorb
8:24 My little brother actually swallowed one of those Lego tires when I was 4 and he was a few months old. It did actually come out the other end 2 days later with no physical damage done to it, just that it had been through his digestive system.
Matt is just a person who makes science SO INTERESTING to the intros the actual science to the outro even though I don’t understand the science (haha) but thanks Matt for making these channels so interesting to watch.
as someone who drank only Gatorade for many years I feel like I should be able to answer this question, but the only one I drank was the one that was literally clear 💀
How many did you have. I drank 1-2 a day for 8 months straight and it caused me to have seizures due to way too many electrolytes. Had many tests to find that out. I stopped drinking them for almost 3 months now and haven't had a seizure since. Just be careful on the intake of sports drinks. Just a warning because seizures are not very fun
@@tony41314131 I didn't keep track, but I genuinely used to not drink water. Just Gatorade and Soda.
@@5252coolguy Gatorade was really the only thing I drank for almost a year, had like 3-4 big Gatorades a day. Guess it effects people differently
how did it affect your health?
@@5252coolguy um are you even human. i literally hate soda, water is literally the best drink ever for me.
smooth transision from carrots to glowing sweat. Matpat always suprises me with his humor, keep up the good work theorist.
If you drink maybe a cup or two of the lime lemon coolaid, and you will pee neon green very fast. Happens to me every time and the first time i was freaked out 🤣
Thanks Mat, thanks truly. I watch your videos because their entertaining to me but other kids my age may not think so, they're so focused on stuff that's is trendy or whatever. I may think your videos are entertaining but they also help me learn more things about the earth and how to do things. Science was always my favorite subject and when I found out my science teacher this year was coaching soccer i joined right away because I love that teacher and I love science. For some reason you remind me of her, you teach things that other teachers such as reading and math wouldn't teach me. People don't need to learn science or civics/social studies but in the end that's where the best teachers come from. You don't need to be a teacher to be a good explainer of things. Thanks MatPat, and I appreciate you helping me learn, truly I'll continue to watch, learn, and enjoy your videos.
You editors have always been top notch, but the visual at 12:23 made me laugh so loud that it scared my cat. Whoever did that one. Thank you for the moment, but my carpet isn't liking the aftermath.
Those galactic cute candies will do it for you easily, at least for your twos. The dye in those is EXTREMELY concentrated.
MatPat: “Do you think if I drink enough Gatorade I can have *glowing sweat?”*
Me: “Do you want glowing sweat..?” 👁👄👁
The answer is yes

@UCO84dBveDyFL8IpEnuQz1ow hey you added the word "award" into your name by mistake
I love how MatPat makes videos we would never expect
You havent finished it yet
Videos we didn't know we wanted to watch.
I love matpat and his wife i want to add them to my collection
0:18 Happened to my grandma. She legitimately thought she had eaten so much carrot she was turning into a carrot and was so afraid of fully turning into a carrot she stopped eating them all together and hasn’t eaten them in 10 years.
Oh my gosh. Many years ago, I was prescribed those same ultra concentrated garlic pills for really bad acne. I took them faithfully and did see some improvement. Then, my parents sat me down and said they couldn't take the garlic smell anymore. I was upset but they were firm. No more garlic. Haha. Of course, I couldn't smell it but I bet it was awful!
noice.
Acne(some types of it)is caused by infection of the inside of the hair follicles and garlic is an antiseptic…
7:16 my mom used to do this to me, good memories.
at 3:29 I don't think he was talking about Gatorade
8:49 "What makes a dye die"- matpat
That Powerthirst homage at the beginning really made the fact that I'm in my thirties now sink in... so, thanks for that. I would honestly be surprised if anyone under the age of 21 even remembers that era of flash animations/videos.
As someone who eats a lot of carrots, I can somewhat confirm. After a few too many a day, the area around my mouth will turn a very slight orange
I did not know my skin can turn orange if i eat too many carrots thank you for this life changing information

I knew this long ago the magic school bus told me.
You'd better not try it now.
@@yallknowme4233 Let's be honest, no one likes those stupid bots that spam messages in every nook and cranny of the internet.
I am so glad he's tackling this cuz I've been wondering this since I was a child watching all these Gatorade ads I'm like how did they even do glowing sweat is that even possible?
3:39 “sweat dreams”
I see what you’re doing MatPat
oh no
I had an issue with the changing stool color recently. I bought some cupcakes from Walmart and they used way too much food coloring in the icing. I think whoever made them just put an entire container of food coloring in because eating the cupcakes, anywhere the icing touched was permanently colored for a few hours even after washing my hands.
As a red velvet cake fan I have had the same issue multiple times and panic a bit each time then the relief as I remember I'd been eating red velvet.
I took a break from the theory channels for a few months because they were starting to feel repetitive. Glad I came back to this banger!
I’m unsure if MatPat will see this, but I do have an interesting story. One day I had to make stuff with onions and I had to chop quite a few of them. After I was all done with the onions I washed my hands, but the smell of the onions was still there. I tried washing my hands a bit longer, using a soap with a strong smell, and even tried showering. Nothing got rid of the smell and it just stayed for a couple of weeks. It is something that definitely feels like it fits with this episode a bit
I have a food theory idea: trying different types of water to see if they taste different. For example seeing if Fiji water tastes any better than Smart water.
They actually do, it's due to the mineral contents of it. They are usually added for taste and if your faucet has especially hard water another reason it tastes different. Another reason why you don't need to drink gatorade.
Distilled water (which is 100% pure) is actually kinda bad tasting by comparison. We don't naturally have access to that purity and want the tiny bit of salt and minerals usually present.
@@Firesgone as someone who has a distiller, nope, distilled water tastes wonderful. it's just like smart water. and yes we would have access to water like that in nature - rainwater!
7:46, Wow, Ness made an appearance!
@FoodTheory
idea what crops could you grow underground like in Minecraft
i own/ operate a drycleaning plant, which means im constantly on the move and sweating alot... alot. i use powdered gatorade regularly, and it helps me keep my oldy joints from cramping. the powdered form seems to be better then the bottles.
I have a small patch of sweat glands om my right cheek (on my face of course) that will sometimes produce blue sweat. It doesn't happen often and only started in my teens. Definitely used to freak me out cuz I thought something was wrong with me 😵
yeah there is something wrong with you
Would like to know why it does that! 😲
That's cool!
It’s probably Chromhidrosis. Like Matt explained at 13:13
that's amazing :D you're magical!
I love that the sweat on mats face here 3:38 is the theorist colors. Green,Red,Yellow. Very cool and a neat touch
I make cupcakes without oil and with apple sauce instead and give them away as a prank. They always turn people's poo bright green and it's always a hoot to see them debate whether green poo is worth it cause them cupcakes are frickin yummy af 😆

Woah. Recipe pls? Or is it just literally swapping oil with apple sauce, gram for gram? Any specific brand?
I gotta try this with my friends. Do you have a recipe?
Why are people worried about their poo being a different color? Do they post images on Facebook?
Cereal turns mine green. Lucky charms seem to do it the most.

1:00 a detail youre forgetting with that is that the University of Floridas mascot is the Gator. Its a fact most floridians know and as such at least hear in florida while anyone will drink gatorade it is still associated with UF and as such unless something changed recently FSU sells powerade on campus instead due to Seminoles V Gator Rivalry

An add on for all the different coloured light stuff, specific chromophores can absorb specific wavelengths of light (i.e. different colours), which can then cause the molecular structure to change. So if this molecule is bound to a drug, we can take it and get the light into the body to release the drug wherever we want it to be released. It's called photopharmacology, and it's only in its early stages but it's very exciting for the future of controlling drug effects in the body.
12:42 It also has an unfortunate beginning to its name.
okay okay okay matpat gets a clap and a half for starting the episode with POWERTHIRST!! one of my personal favourite videos by the way
I AM SO GLAD to know matpat knows about power thirst XD LOL YASSSS!!!!
Cause that is what i was thinking about when i read the thumbnail
and it made me even happier to hear him quote some of it lol
Fun fact, I have a friend who was born withou sweat glands besides a few on her palms, she used to play sports year round but now she can only play inside sports and in the winter
3:58 You know it when Matpat regrets what he says...
tongue painting lollies can do the same thing as the cereal
speaking from a green-coloured experience 😅
You said the word "science" so often I'm surprised you didn't summon Austin. Speaking of which is there ever going to be an episode of THE SCIENCE that is on either Film or Food Theory?
Right from the start of the video, already dropping facts 😂 At field camp, I drank 10oz+ of V8 a day (2+ small cans, to try and help with vitamins and minerals) and by the second week I noticed my skin was a little more orange than normal 😅 At first, I thought it was just from all the desert sun but nope, it was the carrot juice in the V8 🥕🙃🥕
I played sports all my life and as a kid I always wanted to sweat like they did in those old commercials. I always begged my mom to buy me just Gatorade. That marketing worked 😂😂😂
Love this channel man, thanks for the quality content
Matt is like a the mad scientist of EVERYTHING.
Anyone else think about the magic school bus when Matpat mentioned our skin turning orange
6:12 This straight up sounds like a Dr. Doofenshmirtz backstory flashback lmao
Fr 💀
Everyone loves how MatPat hypes you up into believing that the theory could be true, then shoots your hopes and dreams down at the very end explaining all the health risks.
OMG! I haven't thought about Powerthirst for like, an actual decade. That was the best call back to an OG RUclips meme. Good job editors!
1:35 I THOUGHT THAT WAS STEPHANIE 😂
Can you do a theory on how much bird seed can save you from a fall in gravity falls when Stanley is running for mayor he saves dipper and mable then he falls into bird seed
Is that not just a remake of the nugget fall? Like it would essentially be the same thing.
@@TrixyTrixter I think (someone can absolutely correct me) the bird seed would be more displacement than spring force, which would allow for different math
@@eenusmeenus7830 that's what I thought
@@eenusmeenus7830 I do not see that being different enough to warant a full episode.
good idea
Hey MatPat, I have an idea for a food theory video I really love the lime cucumber Gatorade flat out but the meme of it being bad has really made me start to think what makes the Gatorade flavors taste so different and why do people hate the lime cucumber flavor
Alternative idea: douse yourself in a colored liquid while you’re already sweating to make it *look* colored. It may just be a simple magic trick, but at least (depending on what substance you decide to shower yourself in) it isn’t highly dangerous
12:06 me telling my brother not to eat pink sauce
Nice detail at 3:31 with the three colors representing Game, Film, and Food theory
Can confirm, as someone who drinks almost exclusively "Cool Blue" Gatorade (Mmm, sugary saline :p) , I've never had me sweat turn blue, but DO regularly have trips to the bathroom where I leave the inside of the bowl painted blue.
I love how I didn’t even say anything at the start and he just starts spitting out facts

Forgot to say that the salts and electrolytes allow you to RETAIN water. That is why it can hydrate you better, because you can pass pure water quickly. How good is Gatorade compared to average water? I don't know and don't think it matters for most of us. Well it does for me as I have heptorenal syndrome and retaining water is bad.
Generally though it isn't a make or break difference. An older construction worker who worked down south on roofs and such would always have a jar of pickles. It would snap people up quicker. Take a gulp of pickle juice along with something else like orange or lemonade to help manage the heat. Water isn't the best.
Heard ice cold chocolate milk is good in these situations too. Restore some calories with carbs, lipids, and protein while you're at it working hard.
Even if gatorade makes my sweat different, I will keep on drinking it because I LOVE IT
YOOOOO!!! The carrot thing happened to me when I was a kid. I have eczema and dehydrated and my mom read somewhere that carrot makes skin smoother. She'd grind carrots into an awful drink and made me drink that for a long time and that's what made my skin turn orange haha.
5:49 My dad was in the US Air Force during the 1980s, and was stationed in South Korea for a year. The US and South Korean militaries often conducted joint exercises to ensure their forces would coordinate well in the event of an invasion. During those exercises, they would simulate and practice all kinds of situations. Any time the Korean forces would try to sneak up on the American ones, they found them ready and waiting, and couldn't get the element of surprise, no matter how hard they tried. The reason for this is that one of the most popular foods in South Korea is kimchi, which gives the sweat of anyone who eats a lot of it a VERY distinctive smell. The US soldiers could thus SMELL the Korean soldiers approaching them and prepare, no matter how carefully and quietly the Koreans moved!

1:30 Two things: first, not all the essential minerals are electrolytes (but yeah, that's what most of the essential minerals are used for). Of course, some of them can play that role and others, like calcium (which is, of course, used for hard structures like teeth, bones, etc) or iron, which is used in hemoglobin. Second, many people in the developed world do have deficiencies of some nutrients. Sodium, definitely not--considering how much salt most of us have. But potassium? Yeah, that's actually not that rare. Some people like fully grown adult men need as much as 4000 mg, but many people don't quite reach their potassium needs.
When I was a baby my parents fed me a lot of sweet potatoes from a mashed food jar. My skin tinted orange until I was well into my teens and that's exactly what my doctor said it was!
Matpat has the randomness theory’s I love it 😍
Serious props for the Power Thirst reference. One of the best viral videos of the pre-RUclips era of the internet.
This is cool! In my Health class we just discussed how unhealthy Gatorade is so this is perfect timing
Food Theory idea: is cheese cake a cake or a pie? We call it a cake but it's visually similar to pumpkin pie. How do we classify cakes vs pies?
Crust = pie
No crust = cake
@@Mewtic1 so cheese cake is pie because it has the crust at the bottom
I have an idea for a food theory video I would always hear about the 5 second rule when I was younger meaning if you dropped food on the ground and picked it up after 5 seconds it would still be safe to eat, maybe see if that is actually true and how long you could theoretically wait when food falls on the floor before it becomes unsafe to eat.
When I heard coomassie blue, I was like... what the heck, I use this to stain my SDS-PAGE gels in the lab 😂 So in theory than I can just use the dye to stain my gel but also to obtain blue sweat. Good to know 😝 I was astonished about the fact, that coomassie blue is used as medical treatment. I did not know that. Thanks for the episode 👍
I love this channel. Keep doing what your doing
Oh wow. I was surprised with the Power Thirst reference and it really gave me a throwback 🤣
Garlic gives you stinky sweat and breath. But it keeps mosquitos away! Growing up in a veeeery mosquito heavy area, we ate it a lot. 😅

6:29 Good news for us today. Thank you for your sacrafice
So kind of funny thing happened to me once with Gatorade. I got really sick once and almost anything I ate made my stomach hurt except for Gatorade, and I ended up drinking 7 grape Gatorade in 2 days, and it turned my crap green for about a week afterwards
