The 7 minute disclaimer/explanation at beginning in a 27 minute video shows how close minded and resistant to change we can be, often unwilling to even consider or logically engage with an opposing perspective.
This modern understanding of foods and nutrition is pseudo-science at best which varies wildly across sources and most of it is based on questionable sources much less peer reviewed. The problem with this video is cherry picking sources and passing it off as "science" on par with physical sciences.
@@sumedhwale Absolutely, navigating the world of dietary advice can be bewildering. Even among esteemed scientific journals, you’ll find studies with differing conclusions about what’s healthy and what’s not. The reason for this is multifaceted: Evolving Science: Nutritional science is constantly evolving. New discoveries often reshape our understanding. Study Design: The design and methodology of studies can vary greatly, leading to different results. Some studies might be observational, while others are randomized controlled trials. Population Differences: What works for one group of people might not work for another due to genetic, environmental, and lifestyle differences. Confounding Factors: Many studies struggle to isolate specific dietary factors from other variables that could influence results. Given these complexities, the best approach is often to follow balanced, evidence-based guidelines and listen to your body’s unique needs.
@@sreeyt The main reason is that there is no comprehensive model of human body, for example, that can help model the effect of foods etc in a precise or even approximate way. The complexity of human body means that all these nutritional studies are mostly hit and trial samples, so passing these as "science" is very disingenuous. At best these are statistical studies based on extremely small samples over a very limited duration of time.
@@sreeyt Effectively these nutritional studies are hardly different from "anecdotal" evidence albeit with somewhat larger samples in some cases. There are very very few things that are established on firm grounds after being observed consistently over a very large number of studies. In most cases those conclusions are not very different from what we know from our traditional knowledgebase. Either way the point being that passing it off as "science" is plain falsehood. Of course, nowadays folks hardly care about what "science" actually implies and you have all kinds of stuff labeled as a "science" to provide some kind of higher level of legitimacy to it. Just like in the past (and occasionally even today) people used to write stuff as they please and pass it off as legitimate shastra.
I am studying in a western nation for a few months now. It's Norway. Fish, meat, and potatoes are their traditional food. They exercise a lot especially jogging and hiking. And man, they're fit. They also have great water and air quality. Also they value work-life balance and like to spend time with family. Their food might not be the tastiest, but they definitely are very healthy.
It is relevant. What he is saying is that a non-vegetarian diet can be as healthy as a vegetarian diet. It is relevant here because Sadhguru is saying the opposite - that veg is superior to non-veg. Of course he is a guru so he has to say such things - but it does not make it right.@@prasanththangavelu
Great video! Sadhguru has really impacted a lot of people over the past decade, mostly from educated, middle and upper-middle-class backgrounds. I’m sure this video will hit home, and people will get where you’re coming from.
Dear Mr. Ashok, Your channel is the perfect example of how to use your voice for good. It serves as a reminder for others that we all have a voice and we should use it to dispel myths, respectfully and factually stand up to bad ideas, myths disguised in clothes of religion. I especially loved the introduction of Dushyant Sridhar, what a refreshing and humble person accepting others to drive home your point. Well done.
Question everything and accept nothing without reason; every truth must earn its place through proof and understanding. Your curiosity and way of questioning things is such a reminder to look deeper and not just take things at face value.
When a child is born, he / she is told by the society in general that so and so is your father and so and so is your mother and the child accepts it, believes in it and lives by it his whole life. But, please question it and accept nothing, the truth must earn it's place through proof. Ask for a DNA report from your parents. Don't just take things at face value.
I don't care which category I belong to. If you have common sense and studied biology, physics and chemistry don't watch Sadhguru videos. Even if you watch, don't take it seriously.
U mean those who studied commerce and arts have better sense perception?! Makes sense actually! Too much logic sometimes can be a hindrance to experience devotion 😊
@@sustainablehuman15 I never talked about not having devotion in above comment. Also if you don't want logic why does Sadhguru use science and logic to explain his thoughts in fancy English?
@harishankarvenkatesh9927 I also never talked about not having logic and science in my above comment. And why should one have a problem with accent? Freedom of speech right! Anyone can say what they want as long as its NOT abusive as per law! Whether u me or Sadhguru, everyone can share what they want! It's upto us to follow or not. He has said in many videos, "u don't have to believe me, u experiment for urself" So why hate/negate someone just bcos we don't agree?! This is exactly how Hindus in Bharat manage to stay divided 😀
'... and often these suggestions are accompanied by scientific sounding explanations. If you use science, someone will peer review'. That's very well put. It highlights the core essence of science.
Such a great analysis. I have got so much scoldings from my family whenever I try to rationally discuss any of their comments on food. Did not have youtube 20 yrs back. Thanks to you for making these videos. Became a member today The fact that we have to spend so much time initially to convince ppl is sad in our country. Ppl are not open to fair criticism of their ideas, and take it as a personal attack
@@shalman4131 Exactly 😅 u nailed it! Half baked understanding just to get viewership...at a time when Isha is under media trial already! All a part of propaganda! Good luck to those who make money out of demeaning others! Fortunately Grace works for both devout as well as abusers! That's the compassion Hindu gurus bring 🙏
I love how the video is not just driven towards the point, it’s also very well thought out and considerate of its audience. I’m a fan of how clear and articulate your thoughts and medium are Krish sir!
This is not anti-Sadhguru video. Its just anti-Foodguru video. But curious choice of not mentioning anything about food in the title is going to get lot of non-food comments on this polarizing hot button personality.
In the name of viewership clickbait you are also doing the same thing which you are critical about in the whole video Hypocrisy at its best @@krishashok
There’s so much to learn from you including your content. The approach, the sequencing of thoughts, the articulation of ideas, the methodicalness of explaining, using simplified yet needful scientific terms (that improves my knowledge) and simply the assertive- respectfulness in countering some established idea. It takes a higher level of intellect and self righteousness to show ‘the other side of the coin’ that is not popular. Thank you.
Fake people are often polite. Honest people are often blunt and straightforward, which may come off as rude. Being polite won't save you from judgement. Just how Sadhguru is being criticised, even though he is polite always.
@@TarunSingh-wl6ru To say some one is honest,he has to talk with evidence not with blind opinions nd prejudice. Sadguru doesn't show any evidence of what he says... You blind followers are didn't ask or try to research on it. You people are accepts what he says blindly. Good people are polite... Useless people are rude. Blunts are mindless fellows. The blind followers of blunts are slaves for him.
Though a little bit confused now, I found this video interesting and eye opening, being open towards listening to facts. 👌🏼 Now I am wanting to learn more about food. Your book may be a good start. ☺️
Very beautifully put video. I am initiated into Sadhguru's yoga but I keep him and his advice separate from his Yogic practices. I definitely not a blind follower of him, as he says as well to his followers too, but I'm happy to see you doing a scientific check on his food advices. I loved your taxonomy of food in Satvic, Rajsik and Tamsic categories. Thanks for sharing.
Very well done video, and much needed as well. In this age of social media shorts and Whatsapp advice videos, it's hard enough to separate pseudo- or ill-informed science from regular people, let alone from Gurus who hold a place of reverence in our culture. You said it very well - the point is to separate criticizing the individual from criticizing the idea. I have heard many of Sadguru s videos - and I disagree with some of where it appears not to have withstood the rigor of a scientific review. It's so refreshing to see it finally being validated by someone. Thank you for doing this.
Wonderfully done video. I am one who has done Isha yoga in 2004. And still continue with the practices . It has helped me immensely with my slip disc issue. But I loved the way you have put across your point. People should take your cue and understand how one should argue with any idea that one cannot agree upon. With so much respect and empathy , you have done a great job. Thank you ❤ Sadhguru is my Guru. But I don't agree with most of his political/ religious opinions . I appreciate you put forth your disagreements respectfully ❤
Basic courtesy - Not having the integrity to address appropriately what others hold sacred because personally don't hold anything to that level of sanctity so how can he relate!
@@mubukugrappa9648 Real intent of this episode shall remain a mystery known only to Ashok, but the comment section........... this is no longer about the science of food, is it ?😊
I’m the fifth kind that clicked on this video because of the algorithm. I listen to every counterargument of Sadhguru’s and vice versa, experiment it on my own self, and discover what works for my body! Sadhguru always advocates for self exploration! He’s a great GPS who helps those who keep veering off course!
"Who helps people who keeps veering off" is a direct contradiction to the initial argument that he advocates for self exploration. If he really believes that everyone should do self exploration why does be position himself the way he does which prompts people like you to call him "GPS" which is saying that he knows the right path and everyone who is not in that path is wrong.
@@Stephensofceea Sadhguru never says/said such thing and the word “believe” is never used in his vocabulary because that would be religion. As a seeker, you seek and test out the truth. Just like science, Sadhguru’s method has to go through rigorous peer review to see if his GPS is reproducible. We are his peers. So far it’s reproducible. Now, we have all the tools at our disposal to go beyond and surpass our guru. I know a lot of people who purport to know what Sadhguru is saying has never once experiment with his method. Don’t knock it if you haven’t tried it.
Jagadish alias Jaggi alias Sadguru, please.When will Jagdish who murdered his wife, cremeate her body against the custom of his caste before the arrival of her parents l, peddled drugs in the streets and continues to drug innocent seekers of nirvana in his drug den surrender to the nearest police station? Why this fancy dress and daily dose of unwanted babblings? When will he learn to earn his bread by daily labour, as fellow citizens do, sell his ill-gotten wealth and give to the poor and become a Seeker of Truth? Just now he is an agent of corporate-friendly crooks in power! Will the real Jagdish from Bangalore, a run-away from law come out? Followers of Jaggi, please work honestly 8 hours a day to earn your daily bread by physical labour, have whiskey and soda or chilled beer after work and enjoy nirvana with good sleep. Be your own guru, do not feed fake gurus Jagdish, for the good of your body, mind and soul.
@@oonaamookhao LOL we need clinical evidence, not anecdotal evidence as you say. He uses a lot of scientific sounding terms and does mental gymnastics without actually being specific. If people are supposed anything seriously, they need qualified experts in those fields, not just people who blabber non-sense just by being popular and can get away with anything
@Krishashok, this is neither jilpa nor jalsa... This is pure factuu.... Nee kalaku thala ! Your well researched, scientific, balanced and sensible presentation is commendable!!
being a scientist myself, I understand how peer review is important..realy respect how clear has been on the food issues, simultaneously making the talk very simple for the common people to understand...
I follow meditation of sadguru, i completely support what u r saying, one food can't be healthy be for everyone, and one food can't be unhealthy for every one. Being a bengali i was never ashamed of my food choices. I believe self harm is biggest violence. Nobody eat others to promote violence.
Spat my smoothie out at "and the older me... Is still atheist" 😂 Also a part of Group 2, let me just applaud your ability to not be condescending (esp at the lunar eclipse one 😬😬)
All this is fantastic on the surface of mind as long as nothing has touched us in a profound way, deep down within ourselves. As long as we do not have existential spiritual experience, all the spiritual gyan and gurus might look absurd. Interestingly it takes a lots of time and meditation and inner quest even to glimpse of spiritual bliss. ❤
I love the way you approach, critisize in a constructive manner to show what is actually wrong and why, and not by making the relation of love hate, rather in a gray area
I am the 3rd category 😊 and will remain there. I have no strong opinions of the man and I think occasionally he gives good advice. He has surely picked the best of different philosophies and packaged it well in small consumable portions for different categories of people. He has surely single handedly made Mahasivarathri back in vogue. I will give him that! Even when it comes to you, I am category 3 😊 you know how to give your opinion very convincingly. Sometimes it feels like you have an opinion and you go in search of material to validate that opinion and make sure to share it in a very convincing way. You and the person, sorry, “ideas” you are reviewing are similar in more ways than you think!
@ right like he says in the video that his video is not about the man but some of his content. But his title is clickbait - “the problem with Sadhguru” (the person / the brand obviously). He is very good at convincing a lot of bros. He is a bro-fluencer.
Aptly said. It does feel like he tries to find proofs that validate his opinions and yet sound like a neutral person respectfully disagreeing with the ideas. ( I am a category 3 wrt to both of them btw) For example, while countering the lunar eclipse thing he says the moon is a dead piece of rock thousands of kms away and it can't influence anything on earth. Tides say hello. There have also been studies linking sleep quality to phases of the moon.
A very sensible video that focuses on just the facts and absolutely no personal attacks. Kudos! Personally, I want to see at least one video per week, but considering your main commitments, guess I am being too greedy 😅
The problem is Sadhguru is looking at the pranic content of the food and the modern science doesn't have a way to measure it. Most of the human beings, unless one is doing rigorous daily sadhana, they cannot differentiate between high/low pranic foods. So you are right as per modern science and Sadhguru is right as per yogic science... Yes. There is yogic science. Every human being must explore it. The best way to start with is by doing inner engineering program.
I listen to Sadhguru as someone who have said things With his own experience though am not his follower or against him but his advice on food has always worked for me..and i say this with my own experience..
Hi Krish, it's amazing to me how you're so calm talking about this, coming up with counter logic and real scientific info. And here I am, screaming "bullsh!t" when you were showing part of his speeches. I am a physicist, and he messed up with my field too, along with many other so-called "Godman"s. I belong to the second category that you said, but I respect others points of view, and that includes religious or spiritual beliefs. But when someone messes up with my subject, or the whole science in general, I call that "bullsh!t" right away.
What did you expect him to do, smash the camera every now and then, and a super-duper physicist like you couldn't figure that out ? All the BS about respecting alien viewpoints, and you rave, spit and froth in the mouth right through the entire post. Is this how you deal with 'physicist' work as well ?
@@aryaman05 If Physics brings this arrogance in a research scholar from one of the most prestigious institutes in the country, I doubt if it is really Physics. Every now and then, when I try to look at how Physics has deduced laws and still there is so much more left to discover, and when so many top-notch scientists are giving so many alternating viewpoints, often post the advent of quantum world, I am left flabbergasted by their openness. My professor says Indians are always good in copying. The herd mentality and arrogance seldom lets them explore the subtler nuances of creation in an unhindered way.
@@jeetblahiri It is becoming increasingly clear, in the comment section, that this isn't about food science at all.... Everyone has been eagerly waiting, with a vengeance, with sackful of rocks/stones, for this occasion to arrive, , to hurl at Sadguru. And with this video, Ashok simply gave them the comic relief/vent to channel their collective frustration. That's about it. What scientific temper.... do you see any evidence of that in the comment section ? By your own admission, you're part of a collective scientific quest for answers, which we are yet to achieve. And yet here you are, clueless and arrogant, laughing at others who are on a parallel quest of their own.
Absolutely loved this video! Very rational, logical and well thought out and explained. This is how one ought to disagree and critique gracefully! Thank you for setting such a great example, sir!
Firstly, thanks for the video. I can understand its hard to go up against such figures. Heres a thought on channels and viewership. Big numbers doesn't mean that everyone is able to a) watch entire videos b) understand every sentence c) remember everything they watched d) follow the advice they heard, or use the info they got. In that sense, much of what i've heard from gurus is just 'in one ear, out the other'. We then go back to the way we lived always. This is why, while some influencers may have large audiences, their actual effect is very small. I do believe that those who like your thought process are in fact those who are already like you. It is very unlikely that the other side (or sides) will change teams, because of your words. People who dont like science, simply think its another religion, with a different vocabulary. The difference is not clear to them. You can't be scientific without a certain level of education. And even then, sometimes not. And, science needs a certain individual agency with regard to testing things for oneself, and that seems to be fundamentally missing in many people. We were taught science, without the habit of testing anything, rather we were supposed to just believe textbooks. That's the opposite of science. The miracle might be that some of us still haven't lost this habit of testing things out for oneself. Science isnt just the vocabulary, the technical terms, the jargon. But thats exactly what some people believe, and they attempt to adopt the terminologies with no mind to what they represent. Your efforts are up against an unimaginably large section of people who are never gonna understand it. Hate is the outcome, when people fail to understand. Its pure frustration. For there's nothing the modern man hates than to feel left out. For that, I felt I had to come out and say - thanks for doing it anyway.
No, the fourth one are those who believe in Sadhguru and still want to listen to your scientific approach. But will not change our believe and understanding based on your analogy.
You can't believe Sadhguru and at the same time be scientific. It's like being a communist investment banker. Of course, don't change your belief in the irrationality spouted by sadhguru. Cling on to it for dear life. It's great fun to believe that stuff.
I appreciate your efforts in educating us about food choices. However, I noticed a few aspects that might benefit from further exploration: 19:41 Diversity in food choices doesn’t equate to all being equally beneficial. Different foods affect our physical, mental, and spiritual states in unique ways. Recognizing certain foods as “better” for specific goals isn’t disrespecting diversity-it simply acknowledges their suitability for certain purposes. 22:54 You question the effect of negative pranic foods by focusing on their nutrition, like seafood. While it’s nutritious, it’s classified as tamasic in terms of the energy (prana) it imparts, which is different from its nutritional content. Prana and nutrition serve distinct purposes. 23:19 No one, including Sadhguru, is forcing or looking down on anyone for eating non-vegetarian food. For example, Sadhguru mentions eating seafood is the best thing to do in a coastal region and even otherwise. This doesn’t imply any judgment on others' choices, but rather situational flexibility. I noticed your shirt humorously (perhaps, intentionally too) says, “Illa enakku puriyala (No, I don’t understand)”. When exploring complex topics like prana in food, it’s helpful to deepen understanding before forming conclusions. Perhaps finding clarity on these aspects could add even more depth to your content 🙏🏻
Thank you for your well-thought out (and polite) comment. On the first point, yes, different foods affect different people differently, which is exactly why one specific idea of "good food" simply does not exist. On seafood, the very idea of it being classified as negative comes from a bias against animal sources of nutrition (with the convenient exception of milk, which again suggests that geographical bias of those ideas that are being passed off as universal).
I just wanted to clarify that “negative pranic” doesn’t mean “negative”/”bad”/”unhealthy” in a general sense. In the context of yogic food, classifications aren’t simply based on animal vs. non-animal sources. Foods like garlic and onions, though vegetarian, are also considered negative pranic. Given how dairy is processed today, it makes sense to view milk as tamasic. So, your argument about milk is valid in that sense. However, the classification relates more to how certain foods affect one’s energy and mental state (like focus or calmness) rather than a judgment of their origin or nutritional value. This perspective is nuanced and takes into account the type of energy each food brings to the body and mind. It is context-dependent rather than absolute.
@@krishashok Tamsic food also includes mushrooms and many plant-based foods like onion and garlic. So, no it's not bias against animal sources of food. May be you are insecure about being a non-vegetarian.
If the suggestion is that food Prana affects focus or calmness, then it should be possible to test these claims empirically. If the effects cannot be measured then it would seem that the benefits of saatvik eating are only available to those who already believe that that food is saatvik, which indicates a placebo effect at best. If indeed food prana ideas are contextual then it is the responsibility of those advocating these ideas (Sadhguru and many others) to bring that context, which is missing.
Fantastic! Loved, loved this video. I have watched short videos of gurus and religious people sharing such misinformation about nutrition. Absolutely no proper scientific basis to prove all the crapp that is being sold to people who are uninformed. Krish, thank you for making such informative videos! We need many more Krish, Dr. Pal, Sangeetha Ayahr and Ryan Fernando in India. My favourite people at the moment. Not judging just informing and educating. This is how it should be!
It has been proven empirically that most Indian godmen are dubious characters- many of the well-established with a vast following have accumulated huge movable (extremely pricey cars, for instance, as the one under discussion currently) and immovable properties (schools is a favourite big business) have even landed in jail for fraud. Almost everything they say, in particular about food, has no scientific basis as you have rightly explained. Thanks a million, Krish for this video, which is timely and badly needed.
Go experience and speak this with your limited intellect. Intellect is not everything. Transcending intellect is everything. Then all arguments stop. You know without speaking or hearing
This video gave me so much peace after a very long time. Mr. Ashok said the words which I felt for years but couldn't gather the words to speak out loud. Thank you so much ❤
I have been practising yoga and meditation from isha for almost a decade now.. trust me its the best thing that has happened to me in this life... being alone is significant aspect of my life.. blissfulness is created from within us.. so it does not need outside stimulation.. Grateful forever to sadhguru.. ..people criticising him thinks they are much more smarter..lol.. there is no point yo
I agree with you saying there are people who criticize Sadhguru. But the point of this video solely is to point out certain flawed claims that Sadhguru has made. And that's perfectly healthy to point out mistakes and correct them (as long as we are not criticizing the person) if that helps people make wiser choices.
Fantastic. Respectfully done. On a lighter note, The first seven minutes is Krish Ashok saying, “Irunga bhai” The next 20 minutes is us saying, “avlo thaan mudichu vitteenga ponga!”
Respectful discussions are important and in the spirit of that here are a few points. Your views are valid but ignore the fact that science is reductionist in studying specific variables and arguably does not hold the capability to understand the subjective and extremely individual human physiology and experience. So to use it as gospel truth is not rigorous epistemology. Chillis are subjectively hot and cause you to sweat, mint is subjectively cooling but if ayurveda starts to talk about these "properties" that all foods in between have and their various "tweaking' effects on the "complex system" that is the body - everyone in the scientific community tell us there is no evidence. Ayurveda is not discrimatory casteist or hierarchical about food it merely states food has properties not just 'chemical components ' like protein carbs fats micronutrients. Some ayurvedic practices recommend meat or bone broth. Moreover no one is passing a moral judgement on people's eating habits- it's just that people turning spiritual will naturally find themselves more sensitive to the subtle properties of food. Listen to ranveer brar and how he beautifully states food is meant to serve your purpose in life for example tamsic food is best if fighting a war- rajasic is rich and fit for the vibrant activities of life and easy to digest simple food is best for spiritual work because then the mind and body can focus on attainment and not digestion. My qualms with sadhguru also are that he blanketly suggests Fenugreek or neem to everyone whereas ayurveda is more discerning as to how these foods will specifically tweak the body and it's balance for that individual. I like your channel because it presents me with a challenge sometimes and I get to understand urban India but im afraid you've failed to strongman the spiritual argument for eating in certain ways and that makes it a weak discussion. All traditional diets have innate wisdom of sitting well in the stomachs of their genetic cohabitants but it was geared towards survival. Ayurvedic medicine states we can take this further and use the food to specifically serve our life purpose. As a Cambridge educated medic who has turned to ayurveda because years of studying western medicine didn't explain human ailments and suffering well enough, I'll state to you this- matters of spirit are important and a huge missing piece in the reductionism that comes with science. You need to widen your perspective just a tad.
Very respectfully put . I like the way Krystall wrote the comment and if it indeed coming from a professional Western doctor who also understands Ayurveda , I would take it very seriously
The Introduction part is very well made, everyone should re-watch that part and be less egoistic and less offended on any topic - Remember Aristotle famously wrote, "The more you know, the more you realize you don't know."
I think that graph is more like a child's view of a bluntly shaped hill, an isosceles triangle with curves... A straight line, Increasing, reaching a rounded top, then declining and reaching a equilibrium ... 😅
This intellectual wresting can go on and on. As a seeker of science and being in academia for years, I was caught up in it too. Consistency with meditation helped me understand what felt right for my body, and the mind, and the kinder I became to myself, I let go of meat, and most tamasic food slowly. It was a process. What I eat now, is a choice that comes from a depper state of understanding of myself. Meditate for a year regularly, and see for yourself.
Eat , do whatever you like, probably you have some understanding which you cannot impose on others or make people feel same like you. If you realise something keep it in yourself, don't force it even upon your own children.
It's probably placebo and just an anecdote. There's no evidence doing these things would help. Oh, and vegetarians should seriously stop trying to impose their beliefs on others, it's really cringe.
This is probably the most brilliant of your videos and maybe one of the best I have ever seen on RUclips. It should apply to every aspect of life, not just to food. Would make the world a lot more tolerant and a better place. Have just signed up as a member ❤️
Loved your true Indian knowledge of food, I am a research scholar of social science from West Bengal as well as cuisine and culinary enthusiast and appreciate truly your study on cultural base of Indian food and the world. Thank you so so much.
"@12:15 Our stomachs have evolved over millions of years, but our food habits are only a few thousand years old. It feels like Krish Ashok is cherry-picking comments from a video to support his own content rather than presenting a balanced view. Meanwhile, Sadhguru's statements often come across as unverified preaching. I think claims like these should come with a disclaimer, and it should be mandatory for all RUclips videos."
I respect Your way of disagreement, it is polite, but it does not mean your opinion is right... Hear you are horribly wrong brother and i disagree with you very politely... You said one can consider meat as satvik food! Bro you are just disrespecting whole thousands of years of knowledge of india's ayurveda... How can you say meat and fruit eating is same.... Meat digested in 24-48 hrs... When fruit digested in just 2-3 hrs.... Bro what is scientific about ur thought?....and ash goud or brigal sadhguru telling about positive or negative energy food....he is not talking about nutrition or chemical in it...that all can be massured by available instrument....but right now we don't have instrument that can massure positive or negative pranik energy in food....yes in future science will invent that instrument... Then we will know.... Every week or month there will be new scientific study we will reech there,. Don't misguide people with your assumptions and choice of food... You siad eat what you like... If i eat 8 red chilli every day it will be good for my stomach?! If i like to eat human flash it will be good? For me or for society?.... Poor animal because they can't do anything to you you eat them for your taste is it humanity i m asking to you?!.... #idisagreepolitly
Anna some people I know give logic to eat non veg that nature has made food chain if we don't eat non veg then population of gots and chicken will increase so we eat them in food 😂. What to suggest to such animal minded people 😅. Just 2 minutes silence is true tribute to them 😅
Just say I don't believe in science. Meat is extremely nutrient dense. Ashtang Hridyam and Charak Samhita talk about different ways to cook it and the benefits
North India's ayurveda** Most others including a significant part of north India knows meat is good and healthy and eat it for yrs it's just a vocal vegetarian minority trying to demonize meat If you have thousands of yrs of ayurveda saying meat is bad there's ten thousands of yrs of evolution claiming we are omnivores 🤔 and yes there are cultures that eat super spicy food and its not super unhealthy (too much sodium or sugars of indian cuisine are more unhealthy for example) just because you feel better by eating 5 chillies a day doesn't mean u can call someone enjoying 10 chillies bad different cultures have different spice tolerance.. it's like this thing some strange westerners do like calling indians smell like curry bcs of spices And I won't discuss morality everyone feels different levels of empathy for animals like I could shame you about why are you making a cow suffer constantly for ur milk but it's just not good 🤔
Blown out by the modern Satvic, Rajashik and Tamasik foods! Great and clear analysis.. Very useful in the modern world... Basically, Any HOME COOKED food is always good!
I salute @krishashok as it takes courage to make video on world famous personality like Sadguruji. You have constructive criticism on Sadguruji's thoughts on food with actually maintaining respect for him throughout the whole video. This is a very difficult task but you have managed it extremely well. However I feel that we do need people like Sadguruji or Shri Ravishankarji to maintain our mind's peace in this ruthless world. I would have gone crazy without spiritual support from them.
Lol on one end Zakir Naik type people are peddling pseudo science and Unani is promoting pseudo science like Kalonji sold as wonder food. Never seen one "neutral" youtuber question such quacks. 🤔🤔
Thank goodness there are experts like you challenging the myths or insanity and how difficult it is given the huge following these godmen have. Not just food, but his ideas of living life is based on ancient vs western creating enemity and hostility amongst humans. Can’t argue with Sadguru‘s blind followers 🫣
To be honest, I don't think this is entirely about blind faith either. Most people are intelligent enough to be selective about what they choose to follow. Most religious people go to temples, pray to god, do havans and then do things like travel abroad, drink alcohol, be unfaithful, or do countless number of things that are pragmatic while being technically against their religious values. My limited point is that we are also part of a culture where there is a taboo against arguing with spiritual leaders, so while we are flexible as private individuals, we dont often see counterviews aired publicly that can help us change our minds
@@krishashok well put.But also in a way sad if that’s true. Because then the selective choices are intentional and no good argument has a chance to win them over. That explains why some want to feel superior.
this is fantastic in every sense of the world. I cannot express adequately how deeply I admire Krish Ashok's rock solid logic expressed with such humility and a real desire for communication - to *actually* reach people, not just pontificate or values signal. I hope as I grow I can come into even a fraction of this articulation, character and thinking. I am WAITING to get my Masala Lab copy signed!!!
This is not against you nor to favour sadhguru . But your analysis has database based on scientific studies done by others (not even yours)...and sadhguru conclusion is based on his inner exploration. If i give benefit of doubt that you might have read all the document as well , science is still exploring subtler expect of life which yoga has established long time ago. I have many facts to add in all of your explanation but let's discuss lunar eclipse Sun and moon are two important aspects of human , in fact all life in our planet. It decides many things and body cycle of life on this planet..well all subtle things might not have physical explanation but here we have. Have you heard of term LUNATIC ,( where a mad person behaves diffentely at different phases of moon). It is a clinical case. This is evidence of how human life connected with moon . Initially when science was not too much explored they said earth was flat but when they explored more , they got to know it is spherical. It might be the case that he must have said some wrong chemical name but conclusion he made is significantly true based on his inner exploration to ultimate nature. Now as you said you don't know much about him , which is true because in most of your conclusion the context and whole picture of subject has been missing. When he say to eat raw food , he doesn't mean to eat everything raw, what he meant to include more fruits and some vegeies which can be eaten raw ( cucumber) or less cooked. I think you need to explore more before coming to any conclusion because this is misleading , if you consider yourself food expert.
"based on his inner exploration", which are very limited and in egoist domains. He is a show man, but has use as a bulwark against Abrahamic top down missionary religions.
Bro, thanks. I love brinjal. My friend forwarded this brinjal vodeo. I was very depressed. Did not stop me from eating it but depressed eating brinjal only. Nowwww off to brinjal bajji
What ever you have decided , let me tell you something. One of my uncle owns a "fertilizer/pesticides insecticides weedicides herbicides," shop. They sell those to farmers. U asked about organic farming. And they said they it's a better choice. And they don't buy two items from the market which needs highest pesticides/insecticides chemicals to grow. One is obviously brinjal and the other is green chillies.
@MKKR2024 Crops that use a lot of fertilizer include: Rice, wheat, cotton, sugar cane, rapeseed, and mustard These crops account for more than two-thirds of fertilizer consumption in India. - this is by Indian Council of Agricultural Research. Search, download the doc. It has statewise breakup too.
Sadguru is not a dietician. He is beyond that. His recommendation on food is based on how the body is reacting to process food. Like how a yogi would feel. This can't be tested in the laboratory.
सद्गुरु is the spiritual master and millions have benefited by following his spiritual path. But his followers have made him into some kind of an authority on everything under the sun and take it mindlessly as gospel truth even when millions of years of evolution and empirical evidence prove its rubbish claims. But then to each to his or her own.
So happy that you voiced clearly about our methophorical approach to lessons. It takes a nuanced brain to understand this. Not be dictated, but be deduced by experience
Respect you Krish for clarifying many things regarding food choices. Keep doing more of such videos. what i liked you is that you never for one moment used any bad language. hats off..
The problem is your understanding of food science keeps Changing all the time.. Sadhguru is someone who is talking from his own experience.. not from books coming out of (work-in-progress) labs .. But definitely nothing wrong in presenting your views.. that too when done in this civilized way, it is always welcome..
A person's own experience also changes many times throughout his life. This is why science is important to study something systemically, removing any individual biases.
@@the80386 sir, for eg. there are 100s of things validated by Ayurveda and not backed by science ... science will take its own time to get there and along the way they will keep saying all sorts of things based on what the half baked lab results say.. and that I call is an issue and also hypocrisy at an other level
@@VirendraPanwar95 this is really debatable.. how many times scientific views have changed.. haven't we seen that ?? But your personal experience is undeniably yours and no one can contest that..
@@VirendraPanwar95 Today's technology is tomorrow's non sense Scientific theories keep changing.! Scientific studies thought White sugar was good for health for decades and recently says its bad, same goes with egg yolks, sometimes good sometimes bad.!
The world needs your polite but sound logic and scientific reasoning. But I don't think it deserves it. Love from a Bengali ❤ We are always marginalized between the Hindi belt and the South belt for our unique culture and food. I loved your message of inclusion and celebration of culinary diversity in this beautiful country of India. You have gained a subscriber today. Great video!
This video has several mistakes. 1) Sadhguru never disriminates food. It is just for us to be aware of which is healthy & which is not. So no caste system both for human beings & food 2) He said during lunar days, food loses its pranic energy, not nutrition. 3) He never forces anyone to eat veg or non veg food. U will find both vegetarians & non vegetarian Isha meditators. 4) He never claimed to be a god man, you are the one who does - without scientific proof 😛 So please comment on science alone. Don't give a "neutral" disclaimer in the beginning and cunningly talk about the person when you talk about the science.
Sadhguru never forced anything on anyone and he had not judged also, he just suggested his knowledge and left the people to take it or leave it. Your science purely comes from Western science and completely neglecting Indian science of Ayurveda and siddha vaidya.
Sadguru has made so many pseudo scientific claims, here’s few : 1. Lactating mothers with twins will produce milk with different composition when feeding their babies 2. Tries to demonstrate to live audience that food spoils after eclipse using a rudraksh mala There are so many more examples like. You can follow him for his yoga suggestions (which I do too) but not every thing he says especially when it comes to pseudo scientific claims
The problem with ayurveda and siddha is that it has not been integrated with modern sciences .. China teaches traditional medicine along with mbbs … we have a separate degree because integration has not happened completely
Neither has Mr. Ashok. He too has put forward his views and opinions and knowledge. It is left to the people to take it or leave it 🤷🏽♂️ Both Western medicine as well as traditional Indian medicine have their own pitfalls and we can only assimilate as much knowledge as we can and shape our thought process.
His audience is mostly indian and Indians are protein deficient (and okay in other things you mentioned). This is not the case in many Western countries where people eat a lot of protein, and he has said in videos that they should decrease their protein consumption.
You are right, Again this is the problem with westerns medicine, Everyone are gauged with the same scale, I think ancient Indian methodology recommends food based on the type of work and profession, like the Priests are expected to be follow veg diet. well most of the research comes out of west. so no choice.

093 h@@mohan2304
Very good explanation with decent language.
"If you use science, someone will peer review it." What a line. It should be the caption of a T-shirt.
This modern understanding of foods and nutrition is pseudo-science at best which varies wildly across sources and most of it is based on questionable sources much less peer reviewed. The problem with this video is cherry picking sources and passing it off as "science" on par with physical sciences.
@@sumedhwale Absolutely, navigating the world of dietary advice can be bewildering. Even among esteemed scientific journals, you’ll find studies with differing conclusions about what’s healthy and what’s not.
The reason for this is multifaceted:
Evolving Science: Nutritional science is constantly evolving. New discoveries often reshape our understanding.
Study Design: The design and methodology of studies can vary greatly, leading to different results. Some studies might be observational, while others are randomized controlled trials.
Population Differences: What works for one group of people might not work for another due to genetic, environmental, and lifestyle differences.
Confounding Factors: Many studies struggle to isolate specific dietary factors from other variables that could influence results.
Given these complexities, the best approach is often to follow balanced, evidence-based guidelines and listen to your body’s unique needs.
@@sreeyt The main reason is that there is no comprehensive model of human body, for example, that can help model the effect of foods etc in a precise or even approximate way. The complexity of human body means that all these nutritional studies are mostly hit and trial samples, so passing these as "science" is very disingenuous. At best these are statistical studies based on extremely small samples over a very limited duration of time.
@@sreeyt Effectively these nutritional studies are hardly different from "anecdotal" evidence albeit with somewhat larger samples in some cases. There are very very few things that are established on firm grounds after being observed consistently over a very large number of studies. In most cases those conclusions are not very different from what we know from our traditional knowledgebase.
Either way the point being that passing it off as "science" is plain falsehood. Of course, nowadays folks hardly care about what "science" actually implies and you have all kinds of stuff labeled as a "science" to provide some kind of higher level of legitimacy to it. Just like in the past (and occasionally even today) people used to write stuff as they please and pass it off as legitimate shastra.
@sumedhwale If you have any counter arguments, let's know about it. What are questionable here .?
I am studying in a western nation for a few months now. It's Norway. Fish, meat, and potatoes are their traditional food. They exercise a lot especially jogging and hiking. And man, they're fit. They also have great water and air quality. Also they value work-life balance and like to spend time with family. Their food might not be the tastiest, but they definitely are very healthy.
Irrelevant comment.
Indian food is tge best. Westerns are barbarians eating only meets. V Indian have superior culture. Sadhguru is Shiva
It is relevant. What he is saying is that a non-vegetarian diet can be as healthy as a vegetarian diet. It is relevant here because Sadhguru is saying the opposite - that veg is superior to non-veg. Of course he is a guru so he has to say such things - but it does not make it right.@@prasanththangavelu
@@prasanththangavelu nope. It is relevent
Can you ask them how many of them can sleep without taking alcohol or some kind of chemicals...
Excellent 👍. Not just food, Jaggi has said a lot of misleading things ,what a showman with millions of followers!!
Agree. A charlatan living off of gullible people's money and time. :(
Great video! Sadhguru has really impacted a lot of people over the past decade, mostly from educated, middle and upper-middle-class backgrounds. I’m sure this video will hit home, and people will get where you’re coming from.
Even if only 10% get it, that’s fine too
Best thing is you guys must ask sadhguru itself. @krishashok please do a podcast debate or whatever i would like to see the counter arguments.
Why does it take the author such a loooooong time to get to a point. Dither, dither, dither, dither. Typical of his race.
Thanks for making this video. It was bold on your part but so essential to have facts put out front for people to discern and decide for themselves.
Amazing logically made video. Kudos to you for swimming against the tide 👏

Dear Mr. Ashok, Your channel is the perfect example of how to use your voice for good.
It serves as a reminder for others that we all have a voice and we should use it to dispel myths, respectfully and factually stand up to bad ideas, myths disguised in clothes of religion.
I especially loved the introduction of Dushyant Sridhar, what a refreshing and humble person accepting others to drive home your point.
Well done.
Question everything and accept nothing without reason; every truth must earn its place through proof and understanding.
Your curiosity and way of questioning things is such a reminder to look deeper and not just take things at face value.
Thank you!
Truth is the authority, not authority the truth.

I don't care which category I belong to. If you have common sense and studied biology, physics and chemistry don't watch Sadhguru videos. Even if you watch, don't take it seriously.
U mean those who studied commerce and arts have better sense perception?! Makes sense actually! Too much logic sometimes can be a hindrance to experience devotion 😊
Ohh my god. What an advice. World was awaiting for you social Messiah...
@@sustainablehuman15 I never talked about not having devotion in above comment. Also if you don't want logic why does Sadhguru use science and logic to explain his thoughts in fancy English?
@harishankarvenkatesh9927 I also never talked about not having logic and science in my above comment. And why should one have a problem with accent? Freedom of speech right! Anyone can say what they want as long as its NOT abusive as per law! Whether u me or Sadhguru, everyone can share what they want! It's upto us to follow or not. He has said in many videos, "u don't have to believe me, u experiment for urself" So why hate/negate someone just bcos we don't agree?! This is exactly how Hindus in Bharat manage to stay divided 😀
That puts you firmly in the 2nd category, whether you care about it or not 🙏
'... and often these suggestions are accompanied by scientific sounding explanations. If you use science, someone will peer review'. That's very well put. It highlights the core essence of science.
Such a great analysis. I have got so much scoldings from my family whenever I try to rationally discuss any of their comments on food. Did not have youtube 20 yrs back. Thanks to you for making these videos. Became a member today
The fact that we have to spend so much time initially to convince ppl is sad in our country. Ppl are not open to fair criticism of their ideas, and take it as a personal attack
Thank you!
India does not deserve people with rational thinking
What do you mean rational ? All information has a bias. How do you come to a conclusion which is right
Sadhguru suggests to follow what your body says.
So don't follow anybody's advise (including Ashok's advice 😅), except your body.

Very beautifully put video. I am initiated into Sadhguru's yoga but I keep him and his advice separate from his Yogic practices. I definitely not a blind follower of him, as he says as well to his followers too, but I'm happy to see you doing a scientific check on his food advices. I loved your taxonomy of food in Satvic, Rajsik and Tamsic categories. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you and it’s wonderful to see someone being able to separate out ideas from the individual
Very well done video, and much needed as well. In this age of social media shorts and Whatsapp advice videos, it's hard enough to separate pseudo- or ill-informed science from regular people, let alone from Gurus who hold a place of reverence in our culture.
You said it very well - the point is to separate criticizing the individual from criticizing the idea.
I have heard many of Sadguru s videos - and I disagree with some of where it appears not to have withstood the rigor of a scientific review. It's so refreshing to see it finally being validated by someone.
Thank you for doing this.
Wonderfully done video. I am one who has done Isha yoga in 2004. And still continue with the practices . It has helped me immensely with my slip disc issue.
But I loved the way you have put across your point.
People should take your cue and understand how one should argue with any idea that one cannot agree upon.
With so much respect and empathy , you have done a great job. Thank you ❤
Sadhguru is my Guru. But I don't agree with most of his political/ religious opinions .
I appreciate you put forth your disagreements respectfully ❤
The fact that you even had to do that intro... says a lot about our culture, don't you think?
That’s fine. It’s only basic courtesy to try and communicate disagreement within the socially acceptable parameters of current society
Basic courtesy - Not having the integrity to address appropriately what others hold sacred because personally don't hold anything to that level of sanctity so how can he relate!

To be fair, he did make clear the caveat - atheist.

@@mubukugrappa9648
Real intent of this episode shall remain a mystery known only to Ashok, but the comment section........... this is no longer about the science of food, is it ?😊
I’m the fifth kind that clicked on this video because of the algorithm. I listen to every counterargument of Sadhguru’s and vice versa, experiment it on my own self, and discover what works for my body! Sadhguru always advocates for self exploration! He’s a great GPS who helps those who keep veering off course!
😊
"Who helps people who keeps veering off" is a direct contradiction to the initial argument that he advocates for self exploration. If he really believes that everyone should do self exploration why does be position himself the way he does which prompts people like you to call him "GPS" which is saying that he knows the right path and everyone who is not in that path is wrong.
@@Stephensofceea Sadhguru never says/said such thing and the word “believe” is never used in his vocabulary because that would be religion. As a seeker, you seek and test out the truth.
Just like science, Sadhguru’s method has to go through rigorous peer review to see if his GPS is reproducible. We are his peers. So far it’s reproducible. Now, we have all the tools at our disposal to go beyond and surpass our guru.
I know a lot of people who purport to know what Sadhguru is saying has never once experiment with his method. Don’t knock it if you haven’t tried it.

@Krishashok, this is neither jilpa nor jalsa... This is pure factuu.... Nee kalaku thala !
Your well researched, scientific, balanced and sensible presentation is commendable!!
being a scientist myself, I understand how peer review is important..realy respect how clear has been on the food issues, simultaneously making the talk very simple for the common people to understand...
I follow meditation of sadguru, i completely support what u r saying, one food can't be healthy be for everyone, and one food can't be unhealthy for every one. Being a bengali i was never ashamed of my food choices. I believe self harm is biggest violence. Nobody eat others to promote violence.
Spat my smoothie out at "and the older me... Is still atheist" 😂
Also a part of Group 2, let me just applaud your ability to not be condescending (esp at the lunar eclipse one 😬😬)
Haha
This is such a positive and neutral approach to the topic.. your videos keep me sane.. keep up the good work 👍
Believing in absurdities, empirically unproven, can cause atrocities and harm.
All this is fantastic on the surface of mind as long as nothing has touched us in a profound way, deep down within ourselves. As long as we do not have existential spiritual experience, all the spiritual gyan and gurus might look absurd. Interestingly it takes a lots of time and meditation and inner quest even to glimpse of spiritual bliss. ❤
I don't like people touching me.
It's an accurate and deep reflection of spirituality
True
Well said, finally one wise comment among amatures😂😂😂
Lot of big words that ultimately mean nothing. Exactly the way the so called spiritual gurus operate.. good luck!
I love the way you approach, critisize in a constructive manner to show what is actually wrong and why, and not by making the relation of love hate, rather in a gray area
I am the 3rd category 😊 and will remain there. I have no strong opinions of the man and I think occasionally he gives good advice. He has surely picked the best of different philosophies and packaged it well in small consumable portions for different categories of people. He has surely single handedly made Mahasivarathri back in vogue. I will give him that! Even when it comes to you, I am category 3 😊 you know how to give your opinion very convincingly. Sometimes it feels like you have an opinion and you go in search of material to validate that opinion and make sure to share it in a very convincing way. You and the person, sorry, “ideas” you are reviewing are similar in more ways than you think!
💯
He also gives wrong advice, thus category 3.
@ right like he says in the video that his video is not about the man but some of his content. But his title is clickbait - “the problem with Sadhguru” (the person / the brand obviously). He is very good at convincing a lot of bros. He is a bro-fluencer.
perfect... as sometimes sadguru is wrong , he is too but find evidences to convince his opinions
Aptly said. It does feel like he tries to find proofs that validate his opinions and yet sound like a neutral person respectfully disagreeing with the ideas. ( I am a category 3 wrt to both of them btw)
For example, while countering the lunar eclipse thing he says the moon is a dead piece of rock thousands of kms away and it can't influence anything on earth. Tides say hello. There have also been studies linking sleep quality to phases of the moon.

The problem is Sadhguru is looking at the pranic content of the food and the modern science doesn't have a way to measure it. Most of the human beings, unless one is doing rigorous daily sadhana, they cannot differentiate between high/low pranic foods.
So you are right as per modern science and Sadhguru is right as per yogic science... Yes. There is yogic science. Every human being must explore it. The best way to start with is by doing inner engineering program.
This man doesn’t get what is Pranic content okay. Simply rubbishing Indian philosophy is a way of life for some people.

I saw some videos and he was hilariously wrong in his claims. In 1 he said honey increases oxygen in blood 😂. His content is all pseudoscience.
Hi Krish, it's amazing to me how you're so calm talking about this, coming up with counter logic and real scientific info. And here I am, screaming "bullsh!t" when you were showing part of his speeches. I am a physicist, and he messed up with my field too, along with many other so-called "Godman"s. I belong to the second category that you said, but I respect others points of view, and that includes religious or spiritual beliefs. But when someone messes up with my subject, or the whole science in general, I call that "bullsh!t" right away.
What did you expect him to do, smash the camera every now and then, and a super-duper physicist like you couldn't figure that out ?

Absolutely ! It's superb.
I m not religious. I eat during all types of eclipse
No matter who says what,
There are problems with this Man (most of the things related to him) who named himself "Sadguru" 😅
Firstly, thanks for the video. I can understand its hard to go up against such figures.
Heres a thought on channels and viewership. Big numbers doesn't mean that everyone is able to a) watch entire videos b) understand every sentence c) remember everything they watched d) follow the advice they heard, or use the info they got.
In that sense, much of what i've heard from gurus is just 'in one ear, out the other'.
We then go back to the way we lived always.
This is why, while some influencers may have large audiences, their actual effect is very small.
I do believe that those who like your thought process are in fact those who are already like you. It is very unlikely that the other side (or sides) will change teams, because of your words.
People who dont like science, simply think its another religion, with a different vocabulary. The difference is not clear to them.
You can't be scientific without a certain level of education. And even then, sometimes not.
And, science needs a certain individual agency with regard to testing things for oneself, and that seems to be fundamentally missing in many people.
We were taught science, without the habit of testing anything, rather we were supposed to just believe textbooks. That's the opposite of science. The miracle might be that some of us still haven't lost this habit of testing things out for oneself.
Science isnt just the vocabulary, the technical terms, the jargon. But thats exactly what some people believe, and they attempt to adopt the terminologies with no mind to what they represent.
Your efforts are up against an unimaginably large section of people who are never gonna understand it. Hate is the outcome, when people fail to understand. Its pure frustration. For there's nothing the modern man hates than to feel left out.
For that, I felt I had to come out and say - thanks for doing it anyway.
So true, very well articulated.
No, the fourth one are those who believe in Sadhguru and still want to listen to your scientific approach. But will not change our believe and understanding based on your analogy.
You can't believe Sadhguru and at the same time be scientific. It's like being a communist investment banker. Of course, don't change your belief in the irrationality spouted by sadhguru. Cling on to it for dear life. It's great fun to believe that stuff.
@@harishs9645 triggered
I agree. I am not scientific and I am okay with that
I appreciate your efforts in educating us about food choices. However, I noticed a few aspects that might benefit from further exploration:
19:41 Diversity in food choices doesn’t equate to all being equally beneficial. Different foods affect our physical, mental, and spiritual states in unique ways. Recognizing certain foods as “better” for specific goals isn’t disrespecting diversity-it simply acknowledges their suitability for certain purposes.
22:54 You question the effect of negative pranic foods by focusing on their nutrition, like seafood. While it’s nutritious, it’s classified as tamasic in terms of the energy (prana) it imparts, which is different from its nutritional content. Prana and nutrition serve distinct purposes.
23:19 No one, including Sadhguru, is forcing or looking down on anyone for eating non-vegetarian food. For example, Sadhguru mentions eating seafood is the best thing to do in a coastal region and even otherwise. This doesn’t imply any judgment on others' choices, but rather situational flexibility.
I noticed your shirt humorously (perhaps, intentionally too) says, “Illa enakku puriyala (No, I don’t understand)”. When exploring complex topics like prana in food, it’s helpful to deepen understanding before forming conclusions. Perhaps finding clarity on these aspects could add even more depth to your content 🙏🏻
Thank you for your well-thought out (and polite) comment. On the first point, yes, different foods affect different people differently, which is exactly why one specific idea of "good food" simply does not exist. On seafood, the very idea of it being classified as negative comes from a bias against animal sources of nutrition (with the convenient exception of milk, which again suggests that geographical bias of those ideas that are being passed off as universal).
I just wanted to clarify that “negative pranic” doesn’t mean “negative”/”bad”/”unhealthy” in a general sense. In the context of yogic food, classifications aren’t simply based on animal vs. non-animal sources. Foods like garlic and onions, though vegetarian, are also considered negative pranic. Given how dairy is processed today, it makes sense to view milk as tamasic. So, your argument about milk is valid in that sense. However, the classification relates more to how certain foods affect one’s energy and mental state (like focus or calmness) rather than a judgment of their origin or nutritional value. This perspective is nuanced and takes into account the type of energy each food brings to the body and mind. It is context-dependent rather than absolute.
@@krishashok Tamsic food also includes mushrooms and many plant-based foods like onion and garlic. So, no it's not bias against animal sources of food. May be you are insecure about being a non-vegetarian.
If the suggestion is that food Prana affects focus or calmness, then it should be possible to test these claims empirically. If the effects cannot be measured then it would seem that the benefits of saatvik eating are only available to those who already believe that that food is saatvik, which indicates a placebo effect at best. If indeed food prana ideas are contextual then it is the responsibility of those advocating these ideas (Sadhguru and many others) to bring that context, which is missing.
Fantastic! Loved, loved this video.
I have watched short videos of gurus and religious people sharing such misinformation about nutrition. Absolutely no proper scientific basis to prove all the crapp that is being sold to people who are uninformed.
Krish, thank you for making such informative videos!
We need many more Krish, Dr. Pal, Sangeetha Ayahr and Ryan Fernando in India. My favourite people at the moment. Not judging just informing and educating. This is how it should be!
Such a considerate and an inclusive take! It's been worth the wait.
PS: Could you please upload your Instagram reels as RUclips shorts?
It has been proven empirically that most Indian godmen are dubious characters- many of the well-established with a vast following have accumulated huge movable (extremely pricey cars, for instance, as the one under discussion currently) and immovable properties (schools is a favourite big business) have even landed in jail for fraud. Almost everything they say, in particular about food, has no scientific basis as you have rightly explained. Thanks a million, Krish for this video, which is timely and badly needed.
Sadhguru is best and all Indian godmen are best. Jai Shree Mahakal🌹🌹🙏🙏
Not everyone.@@gauravpatil1079
Not Sadhguru; he is almost God himself.
Go experience and speak this with your limited intellect. Intellect is not everything. Transcending intellect is everything. Then all arguments stop. You know without speaking or hearing
@@mubukugrappa9648Don't you realise how such comments are so off- putting
This video gave me so much peace after a very long time. Mr. Ashok said the words which I felt for years but couldn't gather the words to speak out loud. Thank you so much ❤
Thank you
The fact mentioned at 22:55 perhaps best explains the concept of food as simple nourishment . Great video Krish!
Wow..."we tend to defend the fortress of our limit of understanding not its actual limit " I am now officially hooked to your channel ❤️... thank you
I have been practising yoga and meditation from isha for almost a decade now.. trust me its the best thing that has happened to me in this life... being alone is significant aspect of my life.. blissfulness is created from within us.. so it does not need outside stimulation..
Grateful forever to sadhguru..
..people criticising him thinks they are much more smarter..lol.. there is no point yo
@@chanman9502 I am happy that you have had a great experience at Isha… Pleased to read!
However, Mr. Krish has a point here.
I agree with you saying there are people who criticize Sadhguru. But the point of this video solely is to point out certain flawed claims that Sadhguru has made. And that's perfectly healthy to point out mistakes and correct them (as long as we are not criticizing the person) if that helps people make wiser choices.
Jaggi has said many stupid things. I hate stupidity and Jaggi is irrelevant.
Jaggi killed his wife lol
@@aamentalukdar9371 Jaggi is Grade A idiot but principle of 'Innocent till proven guilty' applies whether we like it or not.
Fantastic. Respectfully done.
On a lighter note,
The first seven minutes is Krish Ashok saying, “Irunga bhai”
The next 20 minutes is us saying, “avlo thaan mudichu vitteenga ponga!”
Haha
😂😂
Respectful discussions are important and in the spirit of that here are a few points.
Your views are valid but ignore the fact that science is reductionist in studying specific variables and arguably does not hold the capability to understand the subjective and extremely individual human physiology and experience. So to use it as gospel truth is not rigorous epistemology.
Chillis are subjectively hot and cause you to sweat, mint is subjectively cooling but if ayurveda starts to talk about these "properties" that all foods in between have and their various "tweaking' effects on the "complex system" that is the body - everyone in the scientific community tell us there is no evidence. Ayurveda is not discrimatory casteist or hierarchical about food it merely states food has properties not just 'chemical components ' like protein carbs fats micronutrients. Some ayurvedic practices recommend meat or bone broth. Moreover no one is passing a moral judgement on people's eating habits- it's just that people turning spiritual will naturally find themselves more sensitive to the subtle properties of food. Listen to ranveer brar and how he beautifully states food is meant to serve your purpose in life for example tamsic food is best if fighting a war- rajasic is rich and fit for the vibrant activities of life and easy to digest simple food is best for spiritual work because then the mind and body can focus on attainment and not digestion. My qualms with sadhguru also are that he blanketly suggests Fenugreek or neem to everyone whereas ayurveda is more discerning as to how these foods will specifically tweak the body and it's balance for that individual.
I like your channel because it presents me with a challenge sometimes and I get to understand urban India but im afraid you've failed to strongman the spiritual argument for eating in certain ways and that makes it a weak discussion. All traditional diets have innate wisdom of sitting well in the stomachs of their genetic cohabitants but it was geared towards survival. Ayurvedic medicine states we can take this further and use the food to specifically serve our life purpose. As a Cambridge educated medic who has turned to ayurveda because years of studying western medicine didn't explain human ailments and suffering well enough, I'll state to you this- matters of spirit are important and a huge missing piece in the reductionism that comes with science. You need to widen your perspective just a tad.
Ends don't justify the means!
Very respectfully put . I like the way Krystall wrote the comment and if it indeed coming from a professional Western doctor who also understands Ayurveda , I would take it very seriously
A first time viewer.. loved your review backed up by good arguments.
The Introduction part is very well made, everyone should re-watch that part and be less egoistic and less offended on any topic - Remember Aristotle famously wrote, "The more you know, the more you realize you don't know."
As you grow old, your confidence to dismiss other's idea has gone down. This resonates so much with me.
I think that graph is more like a child's view of a bluntly shaped hill, an isosceles triangle with curves... A straight line, Increasing, reaching a rounded top, then declining and reaching a equilibrium ... 😅
😊
Hehe
I had read an article where a Taj Hotel Delhi Chef said that Sadhguru ordered Fish n rice in lunch much to his surprise 😊
Not surprising at all; some of the school kids in his school are given eggs as well.
That is because Adiguru instructed Sadhguru to order that food.
@@mubukugrappa9648 oh sure, I am sure this adiguru also told him to order expensive bikes and cars. How convenient 😂
This intellectual wresting can go on and on. As a seeker of science and being in academia for years, I was caught up in it too. Consistency with meditation helped me understand what felt right for my body, and the mind, and the kinder I became to myself, I let go of meat, and most tamasic food slowly. It was a process. What I eat now, is a choice that comes from a depper state of understanding of myself. Meditate for a year regularly, and see for yourself.
You have spoken the truth sir! I have gone through similar experience.
Eat , do whatever you like, probably you have some understanding which you cannot impose on others or make people feel same like you. If you realise something keep it in yourself, don't force it even upon your own children.
It's probably placebo and just an anecdote. There's no evidence doing these things would help. Oh, and vegetarians should seriously stop trying to impose their beliefs on others, it's really cringe.
He meditates a lot and he understands nothing, including himself. Videos are full of misinformation.
Who the hell is going to eat a brinjal a day for 5 years
Sadhguru❌ Wrongguru✔
This is probably the most brilliant of your videos and maybe one of the best I have ever seen on RUclips. It should apply to every aspect of life, not just to food. Would make the world a lot more tolerant and a better place. Have just signed up as a member ❤️
Shouldn't it be called 'Problem with Sadguru's ideas' instead of 'Problem with Sadguru'
27:42 First time seeing your video. Well said and sounds very logical.
We need more videos like this, and more individuals like him in the world.
Great work!
Loved your true Indian knowledge of food, I am a research scholar of social science from West Bengal as well as cuisine and culinary enthusiast and appreciate truly your study on cultural base of Indian food and the world. Thank you so so much.
"@12:15 Our stomachs have evolved over millions of years, but our food habits are only a few thousand years old. It feels like Krish Ashok is cherry-picking comments from a video to support his own content rather than presenting a balanced view. Meanwhile, Sadhguru's statements often come across as unverified preaching. I think claims like these should come with a disclaimer, and it should be mandatory for all RUclips videos."
I respect Your way of disagreement, it is polite, but it does not mean your opinion is right... Hear you are horribly wrong brother and i disagree with you very politely... You said one can consider meat as satvik food! Bro you are just disrespecting whole thousands of years of knowledge of india's ayurveda... How can you say meat and fruit eating is same.... Meat digested in 24-48 hrs... When fruit digested in just 2-3 hrs.... Bro what is scientific about ur thought?....and ash goud or brigal sadhguru telling about positive or negative energy food....he is not talking about nutrition or chemical in it...that all can be massured by available instrument....but right now we don't have instrument that can massure positive or negative pranik energy in food....yes in future science will invent that instrument... Then we will know.... Every week or month there will be new scientific study we will reech there,. Don't misguide people with your assumptions and choice of food... You siad eat what you like... If i eat 8 red chilli every day it will be good for my stomach?! If i like to eat human flash it will be good? For me or for society?.... Poor animal because they can't do anything to you you eat them for your taste is it humanity i m asking to you?!.... #idisagreepolitly
Anna some people I know give logic to eat non veg that nature has made food chain if we don't eat non veg then population of gots and chicken will increase so we eat them in food 😂. What to suggest to such animal minded people 😅. Just 2 minutes silence is true tribute to them 😅
Just say I don't believe in science. Meat is extremely nutrient dense. Ashtang Hridyam and Charak Samhita talk about different ways to cook it and the benefits
Where did you pull out the "meat takes 24 hours to digest" info? And then the holier than thou #idisagreepolitely hashtag as well 😂
North India's ayurveda**
Most others including a significant part of north India knows meat is good and healthy and eat it for yrs it's just a vocal vegetarian minority trying to demonize meat
If you have thousands of yrs of ayurveda saying meat is bad there's ten thousands of yrs of evolution claiming we are omnivores 🤔
and yes there are cultures that eat super spicy food and its not super unhealthy (too much sodium or sugars of indian cuisine are more unhealthy for example)
just because you feel better by eating 5 chillies a day doesn't mean u can call someone enjoying 10 chillies bad different cultures have different spice tolerance.. it's like this thing some strange westerners do like calling indians smell like curry bcs of spices
And I won't discuss morality everyone feels different levels of empathy for animals like I could shame you about why are you making a cow suffer constantly for ur milk but it's just not good 🤔
Long awaited. Thanks Much Krish Ashok
Yess !
22:00 There goes a very good definition of satvic, rajasic and tamasic food. Salute sir.
Blown out by the modern Satvic, Rajashik and Tamasik foods! Great and clear analysis.. Very useful in the modern world...
Basically, Any HOME COOKED food is always good!
Maybe he ate too much brinjal growing up.
Ahahahaha😂
😂😂
If Sadhguru ate brinjal, it is because Adipurush/ Adishesha/ Adinaga must have instructed him to do so.
@@mubukugrappa9648 So did he realise after eating Brinjal that Adipurush was trying to poison him
Was waiting since morning, guessed it..!
I salute @krishashok as it takes courage to make video on world famous personality like Sadguruji. You have constructive criticism on Sadguruji's thoughts on food with actually maintaining respect for him throughout the whole video. This is a very difficult task but you have managed it extremely well. However I feel that we do need people like Sadguruji or Shri Ravishankarji to maintain our mind's peace in this ruthless world. I would have gone crazy without spiritual support from them.
Thank you. Keep up with the good work!!
Brilliant Video, Very Informative

Thank goodness there are experts like you challenging the myths or insanity and how difficult it is given the huge following these godmen have.
Not just food, but his ideas of living life is based on ancient vs western creating enemity and hostility amongst humans.
Can’t argue with Sadguru‘s blind followers 🫣
To be honest, I don't think this is entirely about blind faith either. Most people are intelligent enough to be selective about what they choose to follow. Most religious people go to temples, pray to god, do havans and then do things like travel abroad, drink alcohol, be unfaithful, or do countless number of things that are pragmatic while being technically against their religious values. My limited point is that we are also part of a culture where there is a taboo against arguing with spiritual leaders, so while we are flexible as private individuals, we dont often see counterviews aired publicly that can help us change our minds
@@krishashokThat's a fair comment.
@@krishashok well put.But also in a way sad if that’s true. Because then the selective choices are intentional and no good argument has a chance to win them over.
That explains why some want to feel superior.
this is fantastic in every sense of the world. I cannot express adequately how deeply I admire Krish Ashok's rock solid logic expressed with such humility and a real desire for communication - to *actually* reach people, not just pontificate or values signal. I hope as I grow I can come into even a fraction of this articulation, character and thinking. I am WAITING to get my Masala Lab copy signed!!!
plus side - now I can actually show my mum why brinjal isn't that bad actuall----* gets side eyed by mom*
Loving this , especially the introduction leading to the main content. So much wisdom to soak up and to provoke the thoughts 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻. Thank you 🙏🏻
This is not against you nor to favour sadhguru . But your analysis has database based on scientific studies done by others (not even yours)...and sadhguru conclusion is based on his inner exploration.
If i give benefit of doubt that you might have read all the document as well , science is still exploring subtler expect of life which yoga has established long time ago.
I have many facts to add in all of your explanation but let's discuss lunar eclipse
Sun and moon are two important aspects of human , in fact all life in our planet. It decides many things and body cycle of life on this planet..well all subtle things might not have physical explanation but here we have. Have you heard of term LUNATIC ,( where a mad person behaves diffentely at different phases of moon). It is a clinical case. This is evidence of how human life connected with moon .
Initially when science was not too much explored they said earth was flat but when they explored more , they got to know it is spherical.
It might be the case that he must have said some wrong chemical name but conclusion he made is significantly true based on his inner exploration to ultimate nature.
Now as you said you don't know much about him , which is true because in most of your conclusion the context and whole picture of subject has been missing.
When he say to eat raw food , he doesn't mean to eat everything raw, what he meant to include more fruits and some vegeies which can be eaten raw ( cucumber) or less cooked.
I think you need to explore more before coming to any conclusion because this is misleading , if you consider yourself food expert.
😂
😂😂😂😂
Argument from ignorance
"based on his inner exploration", which are very limited and in egoist domains. He is a show man, but has use as a bulwark against Abrahamic top down missionary religions.
@Anton-tf9iw we are discussing food here, not religion. No need to bring personal grudge here.
Bro, thanks. I love brinjal. My friend forwarded this brinjal vodeo. I was very depressed. Did not stop me from eating it but depressed eating brinjal only. Nowwww off to brinjal bajji
What ever you have decided , let me tell you something. One of my uncle owns a "fertilizer/pesticides insecticides weedicides herbicides," shop. They sell those to farmers. U asked about organic farming. And they said they it's a better choice. And they don't buy two items from the market which needs highest pesticides/insecticides chemicals to grow. One is obviously brinjal and the other is green chillies.
@MKKR2024 Crops that use a lot of fertilizer include:
Rice, wheat, cotton, sugar cane, rapeseed, and mustard
These crops account for more than two-thirds of fertilizer consumption in India. - this is by Indian Council of Agricultural Research. Search, download the doc. It has statewise breakup too.
Sadguru is not a dietician. He is beyond that. His recommendation on food is based on how the body is reacting to process food. Like how a yogi would feel. This can't be tested in the laboratory.
सद्गुरु is the spiritual master and millions have benefited by following his spiritual path.
But his followers have made him into some kind of an authority on everything under the sun and take it mindlessly as gospel truth even when millions of years of evolution and empirical evidence prove its rubbish claims. But then to each to his or her own.
So happy that you voiced clearly about our methophorical approach to lessons. It takes a nuanced brain to understand this. Not be dictated, but be deduced by experience
Respect you Krish for clarifying many things regarding food choices. Keep doing more of such videos. what i liked you is that you never for one moment used any bad language. hats off..
All of these speeches sounded like Nithyananda with polished English.
The problem is your understanding of food science keeps Changing all the time..
Sadhguru is someone who is talking from his own experience.. not from books coming out of (work-in-progress) labs ..
But definitely nothing wrong in presenting your views.. that too when done in this civilized way, it is always welcome..
A person's own experience also changes many times throughout his life. This is why science is important to study something systemically, removing any individual biases.
@@the80386 sir, for eg. there are 100s of things validated by Ayurveda and not backed by science ... science will take its own time to get there and along the way they will keep saying all sorts of things based on what the half baked lab results say.. and that I call is an issue and also hypocrisy at an other level

Love from a Bengali ❤
We are always marginalized between the Hindi belt and the South belt for our unique culture and food. I loved your message of inclusion and celebration of culinary diversity in this beautiful country of India. You have gained a subscriber today. Great video!
This video has several mistakes.
1) Sadhguru never disriminates food. It is just for us to be aware of which is healthy & which is not. So no caste system both for human beings & food
2) He said during lunar days, food loses its pranic energy, not nutrition.
3) He never forces anyone to eat veg or non veg food. U will find both vegetarians & non vegetarian Isha meditators.
4) He never claimed to be a god man, you are the one who does - without scientific proof 😛
So please comment on science alone. Don't give a "neutral" disclaimer in the beginning and cunningly talk about the person when you talk about the science.
Here before this gets shadowbanned
like the video then
Don't flatter yourself.
What's in there that could cause shadow ban ?
Sadhguru never forced anything on anyone and he had not judged also, he just suggested his knowledge and left the people to take it or leave it. Your science purely comes from Western science and completely neglecting Indian science of Ayurveda and siddha vaidya.
Sadguru has made so many pseudo scientific claims, here’s few :
1. Lactating mothers with twins will produce milk with different composition when feeding their babies
2. Tries to demonstrate to live audience that food spoils after eclipse using a rudraksh mala
There are so many more examples like. You can follow him for his yoga suggestions (which I do too) but not every thing he says especially when it comes to pseudo scientific claims
Science evolves!! What are new breakthroughs in Ayurveda and Siddha? Or they know it all?
The problem with ayurveda and siddha is that it has not been integrated with modern sciences .. China teaches traditional medicine along with mbbs … we have a separate degree because integration has not happened completely
Half-Quack and andhbhakt observed
Neither has Mr. Ashok. He too has put forward his views and opinions and knowledge. It is left to the people to take it or leave it 🤷🏽♂️
Both Western medicine as well as traditional Indian medicine have their own pitfalls and we can only assimilate as much knowledge as we can and shape our thought process.
This has to be one of the best videos I've seen on RUclips
That's why I like you. The knowledge you have. Your fan from Karachi - Pakistan.
Don't know why people over hype protein, why they don't say eat enough calsium, enough fiber, enough fat, enough vitamin,why only protein
His audience is mostly indian and Indians are protein deficient (and okay in other things you mentioned). This is not the case in many Western countries where people eat a lot of protein, and he has said in videos that they should decrease their protein consumption.
You are right, Again this is the problem with westerns medicine, Everyone are gauged with the same scale, I think ancient Indian methodology recommends food based on the type of work and profession, like the Priests are expected to be follow veg diet. well most of the research comes out of west. so no choice.
