My sister taught me if you don’t like it. Try it at least every five years because your taste buds change and that is so true I love foods. I never thought I would.
Realy in love wit hCHef Hugh's enthusiasm and perspective - hope you have him on the show regularly! I have been planting and grafting on my plot for over a decade with the goal of consuming fresh fruit I've grown all year round - and I did it! There has been a palpable magic in the whole endeavor - the fruits ARE gifts.
I spoke to a mother in my village. She said her daughter had terrible issues with her hands. They were blistering and bleeding. Her doctor asked about her diet. She said she is a vegan. Her told her to eat meat. She did and her hands healed. That’s incredible to hear a doctor asking about a patient’s diet. Many doctors would put her on antibiotics or other medications.
That's because the Carnivore diet IS the proper human diet. This channel is nothing more than establishment propaganda. Plants are not food for human beings.
A lot of vegans don't have a suitable knowledge of food or the ability to cook therefore cannot maintain a healthy diet.. You could be vegan and eat mcplant an fries every day that's not sustainable. However I do believe with the right knowledge you could live extremely healthily as a vegan
i was also very unhealthy as a vegan. i’m not sure why as it seems to work great for many. i was obsessive about getting all the nutrients i needed and i still got sick.
I always tell people that if when you see your doctor and tell them your symptoms... if the very next thing that comes out of said doctor's mouth isn't "tell me about your diet" then you need a new doctor.
@@martyncox2249 I disagree. Plants are not food for human beings. The perceived health benefits of going vegan are generally short lived and nothing to do with the diet itself. Most people who go vegan come from the SAD diet so they are no longer consuming all the processed junk food and also by eating a diet of plant protein and carbs they have switched off the Randal Cycle for the first time in their lives. These benefits tend to disappear within 5 years of eating that diet as the nutritional deficiencies start to manifest.
In addition to the gut microbiome, polyphenols affect the body through antioxidant action, enzyme modulation, gene expression and cell signaling pathways at least from an AI search. It may help folks to understand and eat more polyphenol rich foods to add these benefits to the Zoe Podcast discussion. Mahalo nui loa for all your efforts in increasing the understanding.
I am British but grew up with an interest in food reasoning, more Asian than British, that plants and herbs have a health purpose, and also ancient Chinese doctrines that says to benefit our health, we must balance eating all tastes, - sweet, salty, sour, bitter. Also it is good to eat with the seasons. In UK we have lost the seasonal cycle because we import all around the year, sometimes forced grown fruit and veg. It would be advantageous if we ate only what is in season. I believe foods then are more nutritious and best for maximum good health.
Unfortunately, in the UK, only Brussels sprouts are in season in winter. My father was a market gardener. 60-70 years ago, he ran brussel-picking gangs all winter (this was before machines). Other vegetables like potatoes and root veg were kept in cold storage by a technique known as clamping (essentially burying them under an insulating layer of soil). Everything else had to be kept in indoor cold storage or imported.
You shouldn't eat bitter cucumbers as this is due to cucurbitin a protective toxin that the plant produces when under stress. It is a far more extreme bitterness than the type of things they are discussing here. It's like eating green parts of potatoes, can poison you.
Like squashes, bitter cucumber has inadvertently crossed with a wild toxic variety. Cucumber is largely water, but it does contain lots of minerals and useful chemicals, (next query answered)
That different. Cucumber or squash naturally is not bitter, so you should not eat it if it becomes bitter. But in case of radish or some kinds of lettuce they suppose to be a bit bitter
I came across this 30 number about 35 years ago. I was told it was traditional Japanese thinking that one should eat 30 foods in a meal. I found that by extending the time to one day, and counting absolutely all nutrients, micro and bulk and everything between, it was perfectly doable. I was trying to lose weight, and evolved menus which I could stick to. Any weight lost has been recycled multiple times since, but I do remain healthy!
In Asia, there is kind of melon called bitter melon. People like to cook and eat bitter melon is because after the bitter taste, it comes out with feeling sweet and moist in the mouth and the throat.
Notice their hair is grey. It’s a sign that they’re deficient of nutrients. We think it’s about being old. But why did my hair go grey and lost hair when I was 18 years old? I was a vegetarian. Since eating meat the colour is coming back and a lot of hairs are coming up on my scalp. Humans are carnivores.
If what you're saying is right what makes us so different from all the other carnivores on the planet? I havnt eaten meat in 6 years I follow a Mediterranean diet I reckon Im not far off 30 different plants a week tons of extra virgin olive oil. I'm strong, muscular and full of energy. I wouldnt say don't eat meat, but it's certainly not a necessity. For me it's a choice because I love animals and I'm educated enough to live healthily without consuming them. What you do is up to you enjoy you're food, enjoy living a healthy life 👍
I have a salicylate intolerance and sadly have to modify my intake of brightly coloured foods. I am still able to live with enough nutrition. I cam eat peas, cabbages red and white, there are levels of salicylate natural whole foods. People like me can take small amounts from higher levels of saicylate from time to time. It takes about 2 weeks to build up to an overdose of salicylate. The whole foods have a sweet spot being edible. The salicylate and monosodium glutamate protective for plants sometimes the reaction in humans is as if they are a toxin and needs an histamine response. Still a lot to learn and research for these intolerances which are different to a true allergy. A true allergy happens immediately not over time. Very interesting topic. X
…I have a question though… When we introduce a greater variety of foods the variety of types of microorganisms in the gut also increases… Where do they come from? How do they get there? I’m super curious…
The plants we use as Spices are eaten but the philosophy is different. Those plants gained being big crops. So they are alive and have huge fields. So the Types are winning survival.
Plant fitness is driven by soil conditions and how soil is managed, plant fitness determines how nutrient rich and how many beneficial metabolites said plant is for human health🐸Naturally farmed, without plastic and with less or no human interaction will determine how healthy the mychorhizae network of the soils is and in turn the nutrient potential of any plant
10:00 Annoyingly faulty comparison, Hugh! A drumstick is different to a pork chop is different to an egg... But these are your _protein_ sources, and a chickpea is similarly different to a kidney bean is different to a soya bean -- pulses are _nowhere near and different_ as the vegetable matter you picked on.

Eat meat. Just meat. Maybe eggs and dairy too. Nothing else. We are not meant to eat vegetables. They are for times of starvation only. Meat contains every single vitamin and mineral we need.
That's why I stopped watching Zoe videos. The anti-meat, pro-plant message is blatant. The clincher for me was the episode claiming seed oils may be good for you.

Re Prof Spector's comments about the human gut microbiota (05:40). Insects also possess a complex. multi-species gut microbiome.
…I have a question though… When we introduce a greater variety of foods the variety of types of microorganisms in the gut also increases… Where do they come from? How do they get there?

I would like to hear a discussion between Richard Smith and Tim Spector. 2 sides of the same coin??
Nobody's mentioning LECTINS or OXYLATE TOXICITY. Bitter-tasting vegetables mean they are bad for us.
