So true. The problem with this is that ppl aren't aware the food is harmful so they believe they are nourishing themselves with poison. You must learn to listen to the God within for discernment.
To food for thought is heaven brought in Truth sought ; To Not live by bread Alone but by every word That processing from the mouth of God .-( That is in Deuteronomy in O. T. And -in N.t quoted by Jesus ; Son of Man.’….(that verse starts with : “ Man” ….
🎯 Key points for quick navigation: [00:53] Stem cells in our body contribute to building and repairing blood vessels. [03:36] Ursolic acid, a natural plant bioactive found in fruit peels (like apples, pears, cranberries, blueberries), can stimulate stem cells to repair blood vessels. [08:31] Dark chocolate (high in proanthocyanidins) can potentially double the number of circulating stem cells and improve blood vessel resiliency in just one month. [09:40] Check the label! Avoid hot chocolate with added sugar, emulsifiers, artificial chemicals, preservatives, and stabilizers. [10:38] You can make healthy dark chocolate yourself, even without dairy. [10:50] Aztec civilization valued cacao so highly it was used as currency and for medicinal/ceremonial purposes. [13:57] Appreciate and respect your food! Consider where it comes from, how it's handled, and how you prepare it. [14:26] Dr. Li highlights foods to support stem cells: ursolic acid (fruit peels), beta glucan (mushrooms, oats, barley), and cacao (dark chocolate). [15:09] Dr. Li acknowledges the challenge of adding healthy foods to a calorie-excessive diet. [17:47] Our metabolism is more like an operating system that can be influenced by our habits. ⚙️ [18:29] Just like laptops, our bodies function best when we take care of them (not abusing them with overconsumption). [20:21] Overconsumption of calories can stress and overload your metabolism. [21:04] Our bodies don't have a shut-off mechanism for food intake, unlike a car's gas tank. This can lead to overloading our fat stores. [21:30] Overloading the body with calories, even from healthy foods, can stress your metabolism. [22:41] Overconsumption is bad, but if you have to overconsume, it's better to do it with high-quality foods. ⚖️ [23:10] Track your food intake for a few days to identify areas for improvement in quality and quantity. [23:46] Portion control is key! Try taking only 2/3 of what you normally would to avoid overeating. ️ [24:41] Avoid mindless snacking after dinner, especially since it can overload your body with calories. [24:55] Dr. Li suggests starting your health journey with small, practical tips like portion control and mindful eating. [25:21] Information overload can be like overloading your body with food, even good information. [28:07] Self-knowledge is key to achieving better health. [28:22] Balance external information overload with internal reflection on what works for you. ⚖️ [29:31] Notice how different foods and activities make you feel to discover your personalized health path. [32:02] Beware of information overload, especially when it comes to health advice. ⚠️ [32:15] Constant social media consumption can hinder self-awareness. [34:49] The ultimate knowledge for health comes from self-awareness and what works for your body. [35:02] The most successful patients are those who take expert advice and adapt it to create their own personalized approach. [35:43] Olive oil contains bioactive compounds, like hydroxytyrosol, that can protect stem cells. ️ [37:21] Oxidative stress from various sources can damage stem cells, and hydroxytyrosol helps protect them. [38:26] Olive oil is a healthy choice for cooking oil. [41:11] The peppery taste in extra virgin olive oil is a sign of quality. ✨ [41:22] Beware of olive oil scams! Look for labels mentioning "extra virgin" and "monovarietal" to ensure quality and avoid diluted products. ⚠️ [42:03] Monovarietal olive oil is pressed from a single olive variety and typically comes from a single farm, guaranteeing higher quality. [42:17] Look for monovarietal olive oil made from Picual (Spain), Koroneiki (Greece), or Moraiolo (Italy) olives for the highest polyphenol content. [43:42] High-quality olive oil is an investment in your health, as it provides the most taste and health benefits. [44:39] Olive oil is beneficial for blood vessels, contrary to some misconceptions. ✅ [44:53] A recommended daily intake of olive oil is 3-4 tablespoons. [45:21] Examples of incorporating olive oil into your diet: [47:13] Prioritizing high-quality food is an investment in your health and well-being. [48:21] Eating in allows for more control over the quality of ingredients used in your meals. [49:16] A healthy lifestyle shouldn't feel like punishment; self-compassion is key. ❤️ [49:30] Allow yourself occasional indulgences; focus on getting back on track. ➡️ [51:33] Olive oil ties into both blood vessel and stem cell health; the video will explore how food choices can benefit both. [51:45] Healthy blood vessels are crucial for overall health; they deliver oxygen and nutrients throughout the body. [52:41] Unhealthy blood vessels hinder your ability to optimize health in other areas of the body. [53:51] Blood vessels are not passive; they are dynamic and can be positively impacted by food choices. ✅ [54:18] Blood vessels are dynamic and constantly maintained by the body for optimal function. [55:12] A healthy endothelial layer is very slippery, like an ice skating rink, allowing blood cells to flow freely. ⛸️ [55:54] Unhealthy blood vessels become "sticky" hindering blood flow and proper delivery of nutrients throughout the body. ❌ [56:22] Factors like high salt and sugar intake can damage blood vessel health. [57:18] Unhealthy fats like saturated fats damage the inner lining of blood vessels, hindering smooth blood flow. [58:01] Stem cells can help repair damaged areas of blood vessel lining. 🩹 [58:15] The body can naturally grow new blood vessels and remove excess ones for optimal function. ✂️ [59:40] Exercise and a healthy diet are both important for maintaining healthy blood vessels. [01:00:34] Leafy green vegetables like broccoli, kale, and brussels sprouts are heart-healthy due to their high polyphenol content. [01:00:47] Isothiocyanates, found in cruciferous vegetables, create sulforaphane which benefits metabolism, reduces inflammation, and helps burn fat. [01:02:24] Vegetables like leafy greens also reduce inflammation, which can damage blood vessel lining. [01:02:39] Dietary fiber in leafy greens feeds gut bacteria, which produce short-chain fatty acids that further reduce inflammation throughout the body. ♻️ [01:03:34] Leafy greens with polyphenols and dietary fiber can reduce inflammation throughout the body, including in blood vessel lining. 🩸 [01:04:13] Tea and coffee contain polyphenols like EGCG (in tea) and chlorogenic acid (in coffee) that benefit blood vessel health. ☕️ [01:04:41] These polyphenols in tea and coffee protect blood vessels from oxidative stress, reduce inflammation, improve gut health, and aid metabolism. gut [01:06:58] Calorie restriction and high-quality food consumption are important for optimizing metabolism. ⚖️ [01:07:54] Cold exposure (like cold plunges) activates brown fat, a special type of fat that burns calories to generate heat. ❄️ [01:08:21] Brown fat is different from white fat. Brown fat is beneficial and scatters heat throughout the body, while white fat is for storage and can be harmful in excess. Good vs Bad Fat contrasting emojis 🆚 [01:10:23] Brown fat, a special fat for generating heat, is present in humans (neck, breastbone etc.) similar to hibernating animals. [01:12:29] Brown fat helps reduce harmful white fat and inflammation. Good vs Bad Fat contrasting emojis 🆚 [01:12:43] Green tea and coffee contain polyphenols that activate brown fat for burning excess white fat. ☕️ [01:13:51] Brown fat gets its name from the high concentration of mitochondria, the cell's energy-generating organelles, which are abundant and appear brown due to the presence of iron. [01:14:35] Brown fat burns white fat for heat generation. Good vs Bad Fat contrasting emojis 🆚 [01:15:43] Green tea, coffee, and tomato juice (not mentioned in detail in this video) can activate brown fat to burn excess white fat. ☕️ [01:16:51] Swapping sugary drinks like soda for beverages like coffee or tea can activate brown fat to burn harmful visceral fat. ☕️ vs [01:17:58] Dr. Li recommends incorporating specific foods into your diet that have been shown to burn fat, including: [01:19:51] Dr. Li recommends incorporating seafood into your diet for the omega-3 fatty acids, which can activate brown fat to burn harmful white fat. Options include cod, flounder, mussels, clams, shrimp, and even squid and octopus. [01:21:30] Proper food preparation is important. Avoid excessive butter and salt to maintain cardiovascular health. Consider steaming or other healthy cooking methods over frying. ڡ [01:23:34] Even if you feel you're doing well health-wise, small improvements to your diet can significantly improve brain health as you age. [01:25:51] Longevity without good brain health isn't ideal. Focus on healthy choices that improve both longevity and brain function. ✨ Made with HARPA AI
My bride has early onset Alzheimer's with significant dementia. Lately I been putting a tablespoon of 100% organic cacao powder combined with lions main fruiting body and mycelium into her morning bullet proof coffee (I use MCT oil, organic A2 grass-fed butter, filtered water and organic hopefully mold free Palestinian coffee ) and a Tablespoon of cacao in her evening goat milk yogurt. Her decline does seem to have stopped and she seems to be more engaged despite her aphasia. Now if I can just get her glucose levels under control. Even on high fat, medium protein, low carb keto-flex diet and fasting 16 hours a day her glucose levels are 110 -140. She's thin as a rail and just laughs at me saying, "That's cause I'm naturally sweet!" Anyway, this is more great information to use in our battle to fully reverse this disease. Thanks for all you do Rangan and Dr. Li.
There is only so much you can do with diet to manage blood sugar, and it sounds like you are doing an amazing job. It might be worth chatting with your bride's doctor about this to see whether medication is needed.
You are an amazing partner. I am blown away bu your love and care for her. Godspeed to you and your beloved. And I read about Dr. Mary Newport who improved her husband’s condition greatly by giving him a spoonful of coconut oil every day.
Eating is simple, if you have to read a label don't eate it. Am 68 don't save money on my food. My meal ate plan for a month on a excell sheet. I know exactly what goes inside me and at 68 I feel better than at 38. God bless great advise. Eat wise.
I observed something , at a childrens camp i helped as a cook . Evenings came and supper was always a warm cocao drink for the children , Bed time came shortly afterwards,calm and quiet ,settled quickly , Then we changed the drink , to Milo . We as adults noticed , it was harder to settle the children , by at least an hour to 2 hours of restlessness and overstimulated , We changed back to cocao drink, things went back to managable, i now consume cocao and cloves,made into a drink ,at night and sleep extremely well on it , cheers ❤
You are saying what so many “so-called” experts are not. We are very unique individuals. Not one “good food” is good for every “body”all the time. What I’ve realized over the the last 13 years as a food & medical intuitive, listening to 1000s of bodies, what a body needs is very unique and changes depending on what is going on with the body and in our life at any given time. For instance, if you cannot digest a food because you have digestive issues, not only is it not good for you, it’s a burden. Thank you for stating the obvious! This is going to be so helpful for so many people!
So frustrating. One influencer says eat only meat and protein. The next influencer says don't eat meat eat vegetables only. Another influencer says eat both but stay away from dairy. Good golly, let's get them all in one room and see who wins the discussion or at least come to some kind of agreement on diet.
You need to listen to what your body likes and dislikes be intune with your temple. Some people do better as a carnivore and some people feel better not eating that type of protein.
@@arthurcard1152 Fruit is good but if your sugar sensitive limit it, I always dilute my smoothies with a lot of ice and water....and add a protein source.
So true. I try to look into the "influencer's" background to determine their credibility. Many celeb influencers have no clue what they're taking about.
I've been eating more healthy little by little and have found your channel along the way. I like how you said that eating healthy can be like a creative artistic endeavor. I agree and this is how it has been for me. I have been enjoying food more than I have in years. The average person around where I live considers healthy eating like a punishment. That's too bad, but I am happy that I have discovered this.
I'm a huge dark chocolate fan and make a gluten-free, with grass fed yogurt , pistachio oats, coconut bars. I saw a study about metals in dark chocolate, and the brands were ranked. Any truth in that? Great topic thank you
Yes! Google Dark Chocolate heavy metals chart It’s shocking but then you know the best and the worst list. Organic has nothing to do with the purity of the product as far as heavy metals. ❤
Infinite love and gratitude for these teachings. So much of what is calling to us today, as I have learned through my personal healing journey. I began this healing journey 52 years ago, and I have learned that most of our health issues are a direct relationship to our food consumption.
I have been cooking with extra virgin olive oil all my life and also heard that one shouldn't fry in it, so thank you very much for putting my mind at rest❤❤❤
Simply fantastic medical conversation, medicine is switching gears like never before, from conventional medicine to functional medicine, from functional medicine to Regenerative medicine( through food). Thanks to both of you for sharing thought provoking insights 🙏🙏
Thank you for permission to cook with Olive Oil again! I don't deep fry food but a nice saute and to keep things from sticking a burning. Thank you for making my day!!!

I went on vacation to Italy for 3 weeks last year and can say the olive oil there is so much tastier and a little spicy compared to what people buy in the stores in the US. I bought 2 cans of really good olive oil while there to use back home and wish I had bought more!!
@@CatherineJonesTX Greek Olive oil is the very best, from Kalamaki, in the North of Greece. Best stored in a glass bottle in a cool place out of Sunlight.
My dad always said eat the peal it’s the healthiest part of the fruit as long as it isn’t sprayed with chemicals obviously, my dad was a nutritionist he lived into his 90’s
Thank you both! I loved the exercises! For the Council exercise (at the visualized table), I paused the video and paused myself from washing the dishes. Then, I went outside to sit and touch Mother Earth 🌎 🙏 ❤ as I did the visualization. I was brought to tears. I meditate. This visualization is different. Even with the tears. There are so many emotions I experienced. I heard, 'Let go, Love, and Lead'. I know exactly what they meant. Hearing the Love and Spiritual Connection you speak of, was rewarding and warmed my heart. I have choose Love over All since I was a teen. Anything else is too heavy. It's hard for some others to understand. My 1st born son of 20 years, who has been through the loss of his father after a 3 year battle with cirrhosis...and everything traumatic we have been through as a family, that I forgive people for, but he just can't understand, and he carries weight that I can see and feel. It's hard for him to understand how I can do this. I am grateful for you both sharing information. Emotional and Spiritual. I so hope he will view and listen to this. Everything is a takeaway from this for me! Bless you, your Shining Spirits, for showing our Oneness and that we are guided and it IS a choice to Love. And you can choose it any time! Beautiful compilation. Bless you both!!! 🙌❤🙌 🙌 🧠 ❤ ✨️ Anyone who reads this... With my whole Being, I suggest listening and watching this entirely. I will be listening to this again. And again. I could go on for a while, but I'll I loved it all! Thank you, Divine Source, for bringing me here to these wonders, of Love and Light 🙏🥰✨️🙌 🧠🙏✨️❤🙌
Different metabolisme is actually a true situation. I know people from one family. He is overweight from very early on. His brother wasnt. Another family; Mother is very slim and daughter was brought up with healthy meals. But was already overweight in her teens. Even bigger now at 25 . We all are unique, from birth on. Ofcourse it still is very important what you put in your body.
I use 1 heaped tablespoon of organic cacao powder with a small amount of cacao butter. (2 buttons of the butter- you can buy it in button form so it is easy to measure out) then i add a splash of vanilla extract and 3 drops of pure sweet orange essential oil … i add hot water and blend it up in the Vitamix. Beautiful:)
The point Rangan makes about tuning into our own bodies I find really fascinating. My son, appears unable to tune into his body at all. Whereas, my body practically screams at me what it does and does not need. I don’t even need to think about it , I just know. Although, it can sometimes be a nuisance, I actually consider myself lucky that my body rejects poor food choices. I prioritise high quality food, I consider where it was grown, how far it’s travelled, avoid plastic packaging where possible, I will sit in awe of the food, like it’s amazing…how this grew from the land and now it’s this tasty fruit, how lucky am I that I can eat this. I drink cacao too, it is very bitter, an acquired taste, but I love it, and drink it as part of a ritual. The best way to get extra dark chocolate is making chocolate covered dates, the fruit counteracts the bitterness and they are delicious! I melt the dark chocolate (85%), drizzle a little into a silicone ice cube tray, add half a date, drizzle a little more, until the date is submerge. Pop in the freezer for 10 mins to cool. They just pop out of the silicone tray, you only need 3 after dinner as they are so rich. Yum 😋
I greatly appreciate Dr Lin putting out truths for people to stay healthy. Thank you Dr Rangan for this interview ❤ im a survivor of 100% block in LAD that refused quad bypass in 2007 by going on a much more stricter diet. Im still here doing okay, just slowed down my daily exertion to allow my collaterals that grew to keep up with staying alive. Im very blessed and grateful to the great spirit for allowing me to continue the work I was put here to do 🙏
I absolutely LOVE your talks with Dr.Li You’re both so AMAZZING!! about Health, Wellness, Longevity. I watch your Videos daily so Informative!! Thank You for all your Research and keeping Updated on what really Works!! 💚🌈💚🥰😍😍😍
Well I overeat because of addiction..reducing the amount of food on the plate does not work for me. But cutting out sugar and implementing a rule of not snacking after dinner and intermittent fasting worked better...besides choosing whole plants food and reading food packages to avoid ultra processed food
I have to treat myself like a child. I make rules. Only eat organic. Never eat after 6p.m. Never eat anything with seed oils (so if you are at a buffet or meal made by someone you cant trust to use top quality food just say you have an upset stomach and can't eat). Never eat foods with added sugar. If you follow those rules without exception your diet will be perfect.
I have kept three simple rules to avoid over-eating and I have never been overweight: If you see your favourite treat in the supermarket and can't resist, say to yourself 'I can always buy that tomorrow, I don't need to have it today' - because half the temptation is that you feel this is the last chance you'll ever have to eat it - and it isn't. Secondly, before having a meal or snack, ask yourself, 'Am I actually hungry?' and it not, delay eating for an hour or two, even if it is 'time' for that meal - you don't need it. Thirdly, don't eat a big meal in the evening if you are not hungry - it won't do you any harm - have half a sandwich or an equivalent if you feel slightly hungry. These rules have worked for me and I love my food. To eat when you are actually hungry IS a pleasure!
There are no tricks, simply eat as much as you want but don’t eat food with a list of ingredients. Eat meat, vegetables, fish and fruit. Butter, olive oil and spices can be added. All those additives and preservatives not only make people fat, it ages your skin. When I was growing up, my parents wouldn’t allow us to eat processed cheese, soft drinks or bagged snacks.
I tried the coconut and the cacao powder. However, I ate some carbs last week and now I'm fighting the urge to eat more, like the carbs took control of me again.
To change your eating lifestyle is to never shock your system. Step1- Begin by reducing your food intake per meal portion from 100% to 85% for about a week, then from 85% to 75% portion/serving for a week. Keep on reducing your servings until you reach about 50% and below. This step is very important to get your food bank in your stomach to shrink. The shrinking process is a vital key
Overeating is literally being sold to us here in America, daily on every single electronic device that is in every single household. Portion sizes in every single restaurant are insanely big, and then there’s the component of what many of us have been taught growing up, “clean up your plate, there’s starving children in this world!” Mentality.
Totally!!!! I feel myself pushing myself to finish my plate at times. Also went out w my kids and we got a milkshake to share, very rare occasion, and I ordered a large since we were to share, and holy smokes it was humungous!! I was like this is a large? Ummmm like 3x what I would assume a large to be!!!
It’s been lately found that Cacao was consumed by the earliest cultures of Peru . Important info dr. Li great conversation dr. C over consuming and eating slowly fundamental as well
My tip for losing weight is dont remove a third of vegetables. Eat as much as you want but don’t use oil and avoid inflammation. Great tips for us. Thank you
Dr. Valter Longo at USC has been studying this for years fasting effects a 're-set" of immune cells. I used this to cure a horrific autoimmune condition where my skin was on fire and itched to an unimaginable degree. Fixed in 3 days fasting lemonade AM (green tea in AM) veg juice (beet carrot squeezed blended into generic V-8) Longo responded to my email and said at that very time they were starting a 4-day veg juice protocol for people afflicted with my condition.

Yes certainly check out who is doing the advising! On far too many wellness and wellbeing sites, not only in the advice questionnable, but far too many other posters speak as if they're authorities on complex medical problems that others might be experiencing, dangerously, as they're not medics and it's a forum, not an actual face to face clinical appointment.
Anything the FDA says to eat I just do the opposite. I recommend reading “Health and Beauty Mastery” by Julian Bannet, that book is a real eye opener about shocking stuff health industry is doing! I completely changed my habits

5:58 this all sounds great except, thin skinned fruits are covered in pesticides, dark chocolate has been found to contain lead. What we need is to expect less food availability and to return to 1800’s agriculture methods.

The problem with eating the skin of fruit such as apples is that in order to preserver the apple they put a natural coating which contains a dairy substance or soy! I got eczema eating organic apples from Trader Joe’s and was miserable! Our veggies from the grocery store have dairy put on them and I became very ill until I started peeling my veggies! My naturopath told me and the clerks in the veggie department acknowledged it!
Thank you so much for this interesting interview! I would suggest you try the olive oil from the Abruzzo region which is located in central Italy. The multiple micro climate in Abruzzo offers one of the best olive oils 👍🏻. Again, thank you for guiding and supporting people .
External factors aside (finances, access to healthy food stores/options, etc.), strengthening and exercising one's discipline and self control is the key to a healthy dietary lifestyle, not to mention physical lifestyle (exercise).
Best tasting olive oil I ever tasted was at the Spanish step’s Mac Donald’s in Rome olive oil packets for a Cesar salad , it’s all they had at 10pm, but surprisingly delicious
Fasting and caloric restriction are very important, depending on your body. 13-15 hours of fasting can start HGH hormones, reduce inflammation, fat burning begins, increased ketones, improved energy and focus, enlightenment. 17 hours cellular detoxification, cellular repair, improved immune function, cancer prevention.

From what I can see, in the UK the cheap cocoa powder in the bakery department of the supermarket looks more wholesome than the more expensive drinking chocolate. I sweeten it with Glycine (glycerine much the same, I wouldn't recommend the monostearate version) another great nutrient IMO.
I grew up eating Cantonese style cooking where we sautéed and steamed our vegetables. Olive oil has a very strong flavor that does not complement our style of cooking. I learned about Pecan Oil about 7 years ago from a doctor who turned chef on a PBS channel. It has equal or higher smoking point than Olive Oil. It has a higher viscosity than most commercial oil such as canola or vegetable oil which means I need less as I cook. Most importantly it is not chemically processed, but mechanically pressed which is better for my health. Also, it has a mild flavor which enhances my sautéed food. I’m curious to know what Dr. Li think of Pecan Oil as a physician and health expert.
Would be wonderful if Dr. Li could also study tropical foods for people living in these zones, if he hasn’t. Taro, cassava, yams, mango, passion, fruit, banana, etc are what is accessible and affordable to us.
I have read many books, I listened to many RUclips videos by many of the world's leading gurus and health experts but nothing came close to the hidden herbs by anette ray. I recommend everyone giving it a read.

You're right the information has to be catered to the individual and that is a person's personal health and if they have a certain health problem they shouldn't eat a certain food no matter who says it's good for them

[38:26] Olive oil is a healthy choice for cooking oil.
[41:11] The peppery taste in extra virgin olive oil is a sign of quality. ✨
[41:22] Beware of olive oil scams! Look for labels mentioning "extra virgin" and "monovarietal" to ensure quality and avoid diluted products. ⚠️
[42:03] Monovarietal olive oil is pressed from a single olive variety and typically comes from a single farm, guaranteeing higher quality.
[42:17] Look for monovarietal olive oil made from Picual (Spain), Koroneiki (Greece), or Moraiolo (Italy) olives for the highest polyphenol content.
[43:42] High-quality olive oil is an investment in your health, as it provides the most taste and health benefits.

[51:33] Olive oil ties into both blood vessel and stem cell health; the video will explore how food choices can benefit both.
[51:45] Healthy blood vessels are crucial for overall health; they deliver oxygen and nutrients throughout the body.
[52:41] Unhealthy blood vessels hinder your ability to optimize health in other areas of the body.
[53:51] Blood vessels are not passive; they are dynamic and can be positively impacted by food choices. ✅
[54:18] Blood vessels are dynamic and constantly maintained by the body for optimal function.
[55:12] A healthy endothelial layer is very slippery, like an ice skating rink, allowing blood cells to flow freely. ⛸️
[55:54] Unhealthy blood vessels become "sticky" hindering blood flow and proper delivery of nutrients throughout the body. ❌
[56:22] Factors like high salt and sugar intake can damage blood vessel health.
[57:18] Unhealthy fats like saturated fats damage the inner lining of blood vessels, hindering smooth blood flow.
[58:01] Stem cells can help repair damaged areas of blood vessel lining. 🩹
[58:15] The body can naturally grow new blood vessels and remove excess ones for optimal function. ✂️
[59:40] Exercise and a healthy diet are both important for maintaining healthy blood vessels.
[01:00:34] Leafy green vegetables like broccoli, kale, and brussels sprouts are heart-healthy due to their high polyphenol content.
[01:00:47] Isothiocyanates, found in cruciferous vegetables, create sulforaphane which benefits metabolism, reduces inflammation, and helps burn fat.
[01:02:24] Vegetables like leafy greens also reduce inflammation, which can damage blood vessel lining.
[01:02:39] Dietary fiber in leafy greens feeds gut bacteria, which produce short-chain fatty acids that further reduce inflammation throughout the body. ♻️
[01:03:34] Leafy greens with polyphenols and dietary fiber can reduce inflammation throughout the body, including in blood vessel lining. 🩸
[01:04:13] Tea and coffee contain polyphenols like EGCG (in tea) and chlorogenic acid (in coffee) that benefit blood vessel health. ☕️
[01:04:41] These polyphenols in tea and coffee protect blood vessels from oxidative stress, reduce inflammation, improve gut health, and aid metabolism. gut
[01:06:58] Calorie restriction and high-quality food consumption are important for optimizing metabolism. ⚖️
[01:07:54] Cold exposure (like cold plunges) activates brown fat, a special type of fat that burns calories to generate heat. ❄️
[01:08:21] Brown fat is different from white fat. Brown fat is beneficial and scatters heat throughout the body, while white fat is for storage and can be harmful in excess. Good vs Bad Fat contrasting emojis 🆚
[01:10:23] Brown fat, a special fat for generating heat, is present in humans (neck, breastbone etc.) similar to hibernating animals.
[01:12:29] Brown fat helps reduce harmful white fat and inflammation. Good vs Bad Fat contrasting emojis 🆚
[01:12:43] Green tea and coffee contain polyphenols that activate brown fat for burning excess white fat. ☕️
[01:13:51] Brown fat gets its name from the high concentration of mitochondria, the cell's energy-generating organelles, which are abundant and appear brown due to the presence of iron.
[01:14:35] Brown fat burns white fat for heat generation. Good vs Bad Fat contrasting emojis 🆚
[01:15:43] Green tea, coffee, and tomato juice (not mentioned in detail in this video) can activate brown fat to burn excess white fat. ☕️
[01:16:51] Swapping sugary drinks like soda for beverages like coffee or tea can activate brown fat to burn harmful visceral fat. ☕️ vs
[01:17:58] Dr. Li recommends incorporating specific foods into your diet that have been shown to burn fat, including:
[01:19:51] Dr. Li recommends incorporating seafood into your diet for the omega-3 fatty acids, which can activate brown fat to burn harmful white fat. Options include cod, flounder, mussels, clams, shrimp, and even squid and octopus.
[01:21:30] Proper food preparation is important. Avoid excessive butter and salt to maintain cardiovascular health. Consider steaming or other healthy cooking methods over frying. ڡ
[01:23:34] Even if you feel you're doing well health-wise, small improvements to your diet can significantly improve brain health as you age.

Thank you, kind sir or madam.
Thank you, very much appreciated ❤
Thankful for the key points❤
My bride has early onset Alzheimer's with significant dementia. Lately I been putting a tablespoon of 100% organic cacao powder combined with lions main fruiting body and mycelium into her morning bullet proof coffee (I use MCT oil, organic A2 grass-fed butter, filtered water and organic hopefully mold free Palestinian coffee ) and a Tablespoon of cacao in her evening goat milk yogurt. Her decline does seem to have stopped and she seems to be more engaged despite her aphasia. Now if I can just get her glucose levels under control. Even on high fat, medium protein, low carb keto-flex diet and fasting 16 hours a day her glucose levels are 110 -140. She's thin as a rail and just laughs at me saying, "That's cause I'm naturally sweet!" Anyway, this is more great information to use in our battle to fully reverse this disease. Thanks for all you do Rangan and Dr. Li.
Someone told me they were giving their Mom coconut oil and it helped. He used to spread it on her toast instead of butter in the morning.
For blood sugar leveling try Indian cinnamon. I put a LG dash in morning cup of coffee
Very meaningful. How active is she throughout the day?
There is only so much you can do with diet to manage blood sugar, and it sounds like you are doing an amazing job. It might be worth chatting with your bride's doctor about this to see whether medication is needed.
You are an amazing partner. I am blown away bu your love and care for her. Godspeed to you and your beloved. And I read about Dr. Mary Newport who improved her husband’s condition greatly by giving him a spoonful of coconut oil every day.
My Dad lived on proper eating habits and survived for 67 years or so. He was given 6 months to live when he was in his 20s by Drs.
Doctors are not infallible.
that must be the MD's motto "you have 6 months to live"
God please protect this man and his family... So greatly appreciated love from Canada❤🇨🇦🙏
Amen 🙏
Man created god in his own image and religion was created to control people
Eating is simple, if you have to read a label don't eate it. Am 68 don't save money on my food. My meal ate plan for a month on a excell sheet. I know exactly what goes inside me and at 68 I feel better than at 38. God bless great advise. Eat wise.
@@tirsogonzalez8636 Really? No condiments? No mustard, ketchup, sriracha sauce?

It never ceases to amaze how scientists cannot see that nature does it best
@@nor.4962 Does it? It seems to me nature is full of dangers we avoid by not living like cavemen.
I observed something , at a childrens camp i helped as a cook . Evenings came and supper was always a warm cocao drink for the children , Bed time came shortly afterwards,calm and quiet ,settled quickly , Then we changed the drink , to Milo . We as adults noticed , it was harder to settle the children , by at least an hour to 2 hours of restlessness and overstimulated , We changed back to cocao drink, things went back to managable, i now consume cocao and cloves,made into a drink ,at night and sleep extremely well on it , cheers ❤
Milo is just poisonous sugar dressed in the form of a healthy chocolate beverage. Absolutely should avoid it. Had it as a kid. Not anymore.
What was your recipe?
What is Milo??? Do you mean milk?
Milo is a powdered chocolate drink mix. @@judyjackson2260
Milo is a cocoa sweeten powdered drink like you would have like Ovaltine
Cooking & eating from home is cleaner, safer, & smarter. 😊
avoid going out to eat make it yourself now how it is made what oil it has refined oil is used all day everyday not eat so much if possible
Two of my favorite doctors. Two beautiful, inspirational, generous souls. Thank you, so much.
This video is exactly what I needed! The tips are practical and easy to follow, and the positive energy you bring is so motivating.
You are saying what so many “so-called” experts are not. We are very unique individuals. Not one “good food” is good for every “body”all the time. What I’ve realized over the the last 13 years as a food & medical intuitive, listening to 1000s of bodies, what a body needs is very unique and changes depending on what is going on with the body and in our life at any given time. For instance, if you cannot digest a food because you have digestive issues, not only is it not good for you, it’s a burden. Thank you for stating the obvious! This is going to be so helpful for so many people!
So frustrating. One influencer says eat only meat and protein. The next influencer says don't eat meat eat vegetables only. Another influencer says eat both but stay away from dairy. Good golly, let's get them all in one room and see who wins the discussion or at least come to some kind of agreement on diet.
Don’t forget the Living Legend Dr Robert Morse. Fruit! Opposites to everything. lol. Balance is what I do. Guru.
You need to listen to what your body likes and dislikes be intune with your temple. Some people do better as a carnivore and some people feel better not eating that type of protein.
@@arthurcard1152 Fruit is good but if your sugar sensitive limit it, I always dilute my smoothies with a lot of ice and water....and add a protein source.
So true. I try to look into the "influencer's" background to determine their credibility. Many celeb influencers have no clue what they're taking about.
Amen😮
I've been eating more healthy little by little and have found your channel along the way. I like how you said that eating healthy can be like a creative artistic endeavor. I agree and this is how it has been for me. I have been enjoying food more than I have in years. The average person around where I live considers healthy eating like a punishment. That's too bad, but I am happy that I have discovered this.
they feel it as punishment, because vegetables don't come with addictive potential like sugar for instance.
I'm a huge dark chocolate fan and make a gluten-free, with grass fed yogurt , pistachio oats, coconut bars. I saw a study about metals in dark chocolate, and the brands were ranked. Any truth in that? Great topic thank you
Yes! Google Dark Chocolate heavy metals chart It’s shocking but then you know the best and the worst list. Organic has nothing to do with the purity of the product as far as heavy metals. ❤
Infinite love and gratitude for these teachings. So much of what is calling to us today, as I have learned through my personal healing journey. I began this healing journey 52 years ago, and I have learned that most of our health issues are a direct relationship to our food consumption.
Love that you both paid tribute to the aesthetic value and qualities of food. Honouring of food and rituals should be reviewed once again.
I have been cooking with extra virgin olive oil all my life and also heard that one shouldn't fry in it, so thank you very much for putting my mind at rest❤❤❤
Very enlightening discussion. Cacao is always in my morning coffee and evening bedtime drink. I am grateful for your knowledge ❤
Simply fantastic medical conversation, medicine is switching gears like never before, from conventional medicine to functional medicine, from functional medicine to Regenerative medicine( through food). Thanks to both of you for sharing thought provoking insights 🙏🙏
Let food be thy medicine.
@@bosslady3882 Organic good food, naturally grazed, etc. it all makes sense, it is how I grew up and am used to.
Thank you for permission to cook with Olive Oil again! I don't deep fry food but a nice saute and to keep things from sticking a burning. Thank you for making my day!!!
I'm italian, I live in Italy, and usually we use extra virgin first press olive oil. I love extra virgin olive oil (made by just italian olives) 😊

I went on vacation to Italy for 3 weeks last year and can say the olive oil there is so much tastier and a little spicy compared to what people buy in the stores in the US. I bought 2 cans of really good olive oil while there to use back home and wish I had bought more!!
Greek Olive oil is the best. We can buy many Oils in the UK. @@CatherineJonesTX
yes and should sting the tongue or the olio is dead
@@CatherineJonesTX Greek Olive oil is the very best, from Kalamaki, in the North of Greece. Best stored in a glass bottle in a cool place out of Sunlight.
My dad always said eat the peal it’s the healthiest part of the fruit as long as it isn’t sprayed with chemicals obviously, my dad was a nutritionist he lived into his 90’s
Thank you both! I loved the exercises! For the Council exercise (at the visualized table), I paused the video and paused myself from washing the dishes. Then, I went outside to sit and touch Mother Earth 🌎 🙏 ❤ as I did the visualization. I was brought to tears. I meditate. This visualization is different. Even with the tears. There are so many emotions I experienced. I heard,
'Let go, Love, and Lead'.
I know exactly what they meant. Hearing the Love and Spiritual Connection you speak of, was rewarding and warmed my heart. I have choose Love over All since I was a teen. Anything else is too heavy. It's hard for some others to understand. My 1st born son of 20 years, who has been through the loss of his father after a 3 year battle with cirrhosis...and everything traumatic we have been through as a family, that I forgive people for, but he just can't understand, and he carries weight that I can see and feel. It's hard for him to understand how I can do this. I am grateful for you both sharing information. Emotional and Spiritual. I so hope he will view and listen to this.
Everything is a takeaway from this for me!
Bless you, your Shining Spirits, for showing our Oneness and that we are guided and it IS a choice to Love. And you can choose it any time!
Beautiful compilation. Bless you both!!! 🙌❤🙌

Different metabolisme is actually a true situation. I know people from one family. He is overweight from very early on. His brother wasnt. Another family; Mother is very slim and daughter was brought up with healthy meals. But was already overweight in her teens. Even bigger now at 25 . We all are unique, from birth on. Ofcourse it still is very important what you put in your body.
People bring the sitting disease upon themselves.
I drink black coffee (w/o sugar) in the morning but today I added 2 teaspoons of Coocoa, I will the same from now on. 🙏🏻💕
You can also try hot cocoa with just pure cocoa and hot water and maybe a bit of stevia if you like (tastes just like reg hot cocoa without bad stuff)
@@KelseashellI make cocoa powder 1 cup of organic cane sugar 3/4 of a cup how's the cacao powder. I've been listening for him to talk about sugar
I use 1 heaped tablespoon of organic cacao powder with a small amount of cacao butter. (2 buttons of the butter- you can buy it in button form so it is easy to measure out) then i add a splash of vanilla extract and 3 drops of pure sweet orange essential oil … i add hot water and blend it up in the Vitamix. Beautiful:)
Thanks! That sounds great. I'm going to try this.
@@LindaKinsey hope you enjoy it :) oh if you try it with the essential sweet orange oil, do make sure it is food grade.. and organic preferably:)

how to you check the cacaos heavy metal contents?
As an octogenarian I really appreciate all this information. Love dark choc... maybe that's why I'm pretty healthy!
I have been learning about this myself. I have been trying to move more towards natural unprocessed plant based foods and I feel so much better
It's not animals that make us sick, it's package foods that are mostly made with seed oils and sugars. Look out.
The point Rangan makes about tuning into our own bodies I find really fascinating.
My son, appears unable to tune into his body at all. Whereas, my body practically screams at me what it does and does not need. I don’t even need to think about it , I just know. Although, it can sometimes be a nuisance, I actually consider myself lucky that my body rejects poor food choices.
I prioritise high quality food, I consider where it was grown, how far it’s travelled, avoid plastic packaging where possible, I will sit in awe of the food, like it’s amazing…how this grew from the land and now it’s this tasty fruit, how lucky am I that I can eat this.
I drink cacao too, it is very bitter, an acquired taste, but I love it, and drink it as part of a ritual. The best way to get extra dark chocolate is making chocolate covered dates, the fruit counteracts the bitterness and they are delicious! I melt the dark chocolate (85%), drizzle a little into a silicone ice cube tray, add half a date, drizzle a little more, until the date is submerge. Pop in the freezer for 10 mins to cool. They just pop out of the silicone tray, you only need 3 after dinner as they are so rich. Yum 😋
I greatly appreciate Dr Lin putting out truths for people to stay healthy. Thank you Dr Rangan for this interview ❤ im a survivor of 100% block in LAD that refused quad bypass in 2007 by going on a much more stricter diet. Im still here doing okay, just slowed down my daily exertion to allow my collaterals that grew to keep up with staying alive. Im very blessed and grateful to the great spirit for allowing me to continue the work I was put here to do 🙏

I absolutely LOVE your talks with Dr.Li You’re both so AMAZZING!! about Health, Wellness, Longevity. I watch your Videos daily so Informative!! Thank You for all your Research and keeping Updated on what really Works!! 💚🌈💚🥰😍😍😍
Well I overeat because of addiction..reducing the amount of food on the plate does not work for me. But cutting out sugar and implementing a rule of not snacking after dinner and intermittent fasting worked better...besides choosing whole plants food and reading food packages to avoid ultra processed food
I have to treat myself like a child. I make rules. Only eat organic. Never eat after 6p.m. Never eat anything with seed oils (so if you are at a buffet or meal made by someone you cant trust to use top quality food just say you have an upset stomach and can't eat). Never eat foods with added sugar. If you follow those rules without exception your diet will be perfect.
yeah I also did dont eat after dark, no snacking, no package food
I have kept three simple rules to avoid over-eating and I have never been overweight: If you see your favourite treat in the supermarket and can't resist, say to yourself 'I can always buy that tomorrow, I don't need to have it today' - because half the temptation is that you feel this is the last chance you'll ever have to eat it - and it isn't. Secondly, before having a meal or snack, ask yourself, 'Am I actually hungry?' and it not, delay eating for an hour or two, even if it is 'time' for that meal - you don't need it. Thirdly, don't eat a big meal in the evening if you are not hungry - it won't do you any harm - have half a sandwich or an equivalent if you feel slightly hungry. These rules have worked for me and I love my food. To eat when you are actually hungry IS a pleasure!
Or try fasting!
There are no tricks, simply eat as much as you want but don’t eat food with a list of ingredients. Eat meat, vegetables, fish and fruit. Butter, olive oil and spices can be added. All those additives and preservatives not only make people fat, it ages your skin. When I was growing up, my parents wouldn’t allow us to eat processed cheese, soft drinks or bagged snacks.
1) Know thyself
2) Do no harm
I tried the coconut and the cacao powder. However, I ate some carbs last week and now I'm fighting the urge to eat more, like the carbs took control of me again.
Thank you very much,Dr. Li,God bless you
To change your eating lifestyle is to never shock your system. Step1- Begin by reducing your food intake per meal portion from 100% to 85% for about a week, then from 85% to 75% portion/serving for a week. Keep on reducing your servings until you reach about 50% and below. This step is very important to get your food bank in your stomach to shrink. The shrinking process is a vital key
One of the best episodes I've ever seen. Dr. Li is amazing!
❤❤😊😊truly educational podcast Dr Rangan and Dr Lee so knowledgeable presentation thanks for sharing your wealth of medical knowledge
Overeating is literally being sold to us here in America, daily on every single electronic device that is in every single household. Portion sizes in every single restaurant are insanely big, and then there’s the component of what many of us have been taught growing up, “clean up your plate, there’s starving children in this world!” Mentality.
Totally!!!! I feel myself pushing myself to finish my plate at times. Also went out w my kids and we got a milkshake to share, very rare occasion, and I ordered a large since we were to share, and holy smokes it was humungous!! I was like this is a large? Ummmm like 3x what I would assume a large to be!!!
So true
One of the best episodes I've ever seen
I like the anologies Dr Li makes in his explanations. We can understand this scientist so easily. Thanks for all your videos
It’s been lately found that Cacao was consumed by the earliest cultures of Peru . Important info dr. Li great conversation dr. C over consuming and eating slowly fundamental as well
Keep rocking my dear friend from India Hyderabad 🎉🎉🎉

Thank you Dr, Li, for helping me get my health back,
My tip for losing weight is dont remove a third of vegetables. Eat as much as you want but don’t use oil and avoid inflammation. Great tips for us. Thank you
I love you two Doctors -Dr Rangan & Dr Li
You are Phenomenal! I love your health tips.
Fasting improves the ability of stem cells to regenerate.
Dr. Valter Longo at USC has been studying this for years fasting effects a 're-set" of immune cells. I used this to cure a horrific autoimmune condition where my skin was on fire and itched to an unimaginable degree. Fixed in 3 days fasting lemonade AM (green tea in AM) veg juice (beet carrot squeezed blended into generic V-8) Longo responded to my email and said at that very time they were starting a 4-day veg juice protocol for people afflicted with my condition.
@@MrTea7 -- Yes, Dr. Longo indeed a leader in the study of fasting benefits. He showed fasting shrinks cancer tumors on mice. Documentary movie '"Fat, Sick & Nearly Dead" uses juice protocol (Mean Green Juice) to cure chronic disease and obesity.
Dr. Mindy Pelz has a great chart for fasting and the hours which different stem cells regenerate.
@@MrTea7 Yes, at 24 hours you have autoimmune healing, brain healing, Gaba production, and Intestinal stem cell regeneration.
but long fasting its hard, i feel awful

Yes certainly check out who is doing the advising! On far too many wellness and wellbeing sites, not only in the advice questionnable, but far too many other posters speak as if they're authorities on complex medical problems that others might be experiencing, dangerously, as they're not medics and it's a forum, not an actual face to face clinical appointment.
Thanks doc, good information, I like the industrial background too
Wonderful topic thank you
Anything the FDA says to eat I just do the opposite. I recommend reading “Health and Beauty Mastery” by Julian Bannet, that book is a real eye opener about shocking stuff health industry is doing! I completely changed my habits

Did you write it? You are posting this same comment everywhere like you're getting paid per recommendation.
@@delhargis2219 Possibly bot work involved as well. A mention of some book and author no one has heard of is by far the top comment? Multiple shallow replies?

Thank you for the nutrition guide, the practical information, the interview. An excellent presentation. Common sense is such a beautiful thing. :)
5:58 this all sounds great except, thin skinned fruits are covered in pesticides, dark chocolate has been found to contain lead. What we need is to expect less food availability and to return to 1800’s agriculture methods.

Is it okay to take soy for post menopausal women. Thank you sir for your valuable information
The problem with eating the skin of fruit such as apples is that in order to preserver the apple they put a natural coating which contains a dairy substance or soy! I got eczema eating organic apples from Trader Joe’s and was miserable! Our veggies from the grocery store have dairy put on them and I became very ill until I started peeling my veggies! My naturopath told me and the clerks in the veggie department acknowledged it!

Best tasting olive oil I ever tasted was at the Spanish step’s Mac Donald’s in Rome olive oil packets for a Cesar salad , it’s all they had at 10pm, but surprisingly delicious
So, consume plants, clean cacao, olive oil in moderation and don't overeat. Good reminders.
…Carnivore diet for me: 1/2 pack of bacon and steak everyday just about. No carbs ideally
@@stephenfiore9960 sounds like the opposite of the above, tasty but not sustaining, good luck if it makes you feel good.
Fasting and caloric restriction are very important, depending on your body. 13-15 hours of fasting can start HGH hormones, reduce inflammation, fat burning begins, increased ketones, improved energy and focus, enlightenment. 17 hours cellular detoxification, cellular repair, improved immune function, cancer prevention.
@@Kimberly-k5gbut long fasting its hard, i feel awful
Iron content high in cacao ?
After my shower I turn down the temperature to cold for 2-3 minutes. I feel soo invigorated after it. I used to feel tired after a shower. Now I have more energy. I also put cayenne pepper on my food. C. Pepper gives off 4 BTUs
The peal of apples, pear, blueberries, mushrooms(specially the stem), dark chocolate (80% and higher cacao) - plant based food.
Thanks!
thxs for this video
Thank you Drs. Chatterjee and Li for sharing these wonderful insights!!!
I research functional nutrition.I am 56 was born with this and discovered at 49. What can I eat to help a atrial septal aneurysm in my heart. I love cooking healthy.
Wasting food on plates is not a good practice. Simply monitor quantities of food servings and eat all of it. Take any food from home or restaurant and gift to a homeless person. Please!🙏🏾
From what I can see, in the UK the cheap cocoa powder in the bakery department of the supermarket looks more wholesome than the more expensive drinking chocolate. I sweeten it with Glycine (glycerine much the same, I wouldn't recommend the monostearate version) another great nutrient IMO.
It would be great if they were a little more specific. Is that a 2 cups of milk and 4table spoons of 60% cacao powder?
Please comment regarding the linoleic acid content of olive oil, which has been mentioned by some as dangerous to health. Thanks.
I grew up eating Cantonese style cooking where we sautéed and steamed our vegetables. Olive oil has a very strong flavor that does not complement our style of cooking. I learned about Pecan Oil about 7 years ago from a doctor who turned chef on a PBS channel. It has equal or higher smoking point than Olive Oil. It has a higher viscosity than most commercial oil such as canola or vegetable oil which means I need less as I cook. Most importantly it is not chemically processed, but mechanically pressed which is better for my health. Also, it has a mild flavor which enhances my sautéed food. I’m curious to know what Dr. Li think of Pecan Oil as a physician and health expert.
Thank you for the great information 🔥❤️🔥
I have used pistachio oil, walnut oil, macadamia oil, and garlic olive oil to smooth out the olive oil flavor. Yes, organic and cold pressed.
Would be wonderful if Dr. Li could also study tropical foods for people living in these zones, if he hasn’t. Taro, cassava, yams, mango, passion, fruit, banana, etc are what is accessible and affordable to us.
I have read many books, I listened to many RUclips videos by many of the world's leading gurus and health experts but nothing came close to the hidden herbs by anette ray. I recommend everyone giving it a read.
started reading it yesterday too
finished reading it a few days ago. you can see why it was censored by just reading the first chapter. this industry is truly scary
For anyone reading this nonsense, these are bots selling nonsense. Eight hours and over 200 votes? Bots all around. Time mark as spam and move on.
How can I get it
@@erikaruppert8355 It's a common scam. Notice how the comment is barely a day old and has nearly 300 likes? It's a bot, and the positive replies are bots. There's another one just like this below, but advertising a different book.
You're right the information has to be catered to the individual and that is a person's personal health and if they have a certain health problem they shouldn't eat a certain food no matter who says it's good for them
Don't eat octopus. See the documentary "My Octopus Teacher."
My fav documentary
