  • Choices have consequences. Especially with what food you decide to eat. And while most health conscious people are aware of what they need to keep away from, less are aware of what they should be including. Because although there are many ways to go about your diet, hitting some criteria will just make things go much smoother.

      I think that macrocosm = microcosm... and there is no "nutrient" when you look at a forest.
      BUT, the waste of life from the trees with their leaves and dead branches, the corpses of the animals is very important to create soil with composting process.
      And for sure, our body is working like this too.
      So composting fibers is a very a long work from the molars and wisdom teeth, plus, important salivation will make a huge difference when eating fibers.
      We are different from a gorilla because they took their time to eat...
      Humans don't have time to cherish the process, the transmutation, alchemy of the art of eating.
      We are not different, but this way of life is not natural, so a lie toward Nature, outside and inside.

      Hey there, sorry to write this here, but chances are higher you'll see it. Whenever you ranked food so far you always gave percentages for i.e. vitamins and I don't know how to understand those. If possible I'd much rather have mg etc or at least some way to convert the persentages if you know what I mean....

      @Daffodillon First off. You got lucky I saw this because I am WAY more likely to just see an individual comment, because I actually get a notification for it. Just for future reference. But the percentages come from the USDAs Food Database quantities compared to the RDA. To me it's a lot easier for people to see 50% Vitamin B1 and Zinc than .6mg and 5.5mg. How much you need of each varies a lot and throwing up numbers for all of those would mean nothing to the general public

Cornstarch(which isn’t really flour but also used in baking)? Rice flour? There’s so much! I’d really appreciate it if you made a video about this.

      There are many different (whole) wheat flours with wildly different properties for baking. We usually have three or four on hand at any time. Rye flour is also great for bread baking.
      You're on a slippery slope. Pretty soon you might find yourself ordering whole grains in 25 or 50 lb sacks and grinding them in your own kitchen flour mill. One bonus of that: limitless supply of whole rye berries, which are a delicious and arguably nutritionally superior alternative to rice (but take forever to cook, unless you have a pressure cooker).

    To eat healthier I highly encourage people to start a garden at home. An organic garden is even better, where you make your own compost that you put on your own plants. You know exactly what you eat then, and there is something extremely exciting about eating your own food. You will surprise yourself eating and enjoying ton of things you would not enjoy otherwise. When I dig carrots and eat them raw right in the garden, they taste better than a cheeseburger lol. You will eat healthier without even noticing it.

    Thanks -- only hint I would give to people wanting to start eating more fiber - ramp up slowly! Do not go from little fiber to recommended or higher overnight! Also your body gets used to it so if you are having gas issues they should go away in a few days. Lastly - eat your peels, just including the peels in your diet makes life easier and is a way to include insoluable fiber without much effort.

      Part of it is sometime in the 80s & 90s a change was made to brussel sprouts that greatly lowered the amount of bitter compounds naturally in them. And the cooking method changed from boiling to baking, this adds oil and higher temperatures.
      Boiling is useful because it has a fixed temperature (≈100°C/212°F) and water is significantly more effective at transferring heat than air. So its faster than baking but fails to achieve the delicious Maillard reactions which are optimal around 150°C.

    I did actually have diarrhea for very long times from eating 500g of oats and 200g of unroasted pulverized hazelnuts a day. They are very cheap but i did not notice that they are unroasted. However theyve always had small hard bits of sheel and like little rocks and stuff. I did it for bulking as well as money reasons and i think my past digestive problems stem from too much fiber that i ate everyday.

    I agree with the title and less with part of your commentary. It absolutely is essential. Don't back away from that. You're right.
    "Small chain fatty acids" help to replenish the mucosal membrane on the epithelial lining of your colon. This mucus membrane effectively acts as a filter. Allowing fluid movement but also a way to trap in harmful bacteria in and from making contact directly with colon where it can then be absorbed more readily into the blood stream.
    The other issue is a low fiber diet kills off a lot of the bacteria that produce SCFAs. They do so by fermentation. This fermentation sets the PH and overall conditions in the colon. Essentially making it more hard for harmful bacteria to reproduce in large numbers.
    I've never found any research that digs into the issue in humans but we know in cattle this PH switch makes them harbor e coil and salmonella. You can compare grass fed cattle and almost no traces of the two. Grain Fed cattle, low fiber, they are teaming with bacteria. They also have large differences in DHA content. It's actually how a lot of the outbreaks in the two bacterias have occured on things like spinach. Their poop is being used as manure and it is festering with those bacterias present. Then it doesn't get washed off.
    A colon with very little mucus lining and constant exposure directly to harmful bacteria could explain part of this explosion in inflammatory conditions in west and places where western diets are adopted.

      Essential in nutrition means that the body REQUIRES it but cannot make it itself. Not a single gram of dietary fiber is required, and so it cannot be considered essential.

      @@dakotad.8609 Yeah I understand the textbook definition. Problem is it's kind of old. I mean microorganisms are responsible for producing all the things you need. That makes them essential. So aren't their dietary requirements essential as well? We don't know what those are in a specific and exact manner but we do know enough to promote the beneficial kind.

      Just because you are not consuming fiber does not mean you do not have a microbiome. You can still have a perfectly good microbiome that is different in some respects. At least, that appears to be the case with the many people that are zero fiber.
      Cattle are supposed to eat grass, not grains. They should never be fed grains. That doesn't indicate anything for humans, although we probably shouldn't eat grains either.
      Most people with significant inflammatory conditions are probably eating a reasonable amount of fiber, seeing as typical standard diets are all somewhat 'plant based'. Many people with inflammatory gut issues appear to improve their conditions with low/zero fiber diet. I significantly improved my IBS when I stopped being vegan and subsequently 100% cured my chronic constipation when I became hyper-carnivore. Fiber gave me constipation. My inflammatory markers are great.

      ​​@@trail.blazerHumans are supposed to eat vegetation too. That's why we have a colon that needs fermentation in order to function correctly. So do Cows, that's why I brought them up since extensive research had been done on the fermentation process in their colons and they are an 80% genetic match. Gorillas and Chimps which are both 98% genetic matches actually have 40% larger colons. Why? Gorillas only eat Veggies and Chimps go through several months of the years where its almost all they eat. Our colon seems to have shrunk as we started to eat more grains. That doesn't mean fiber isn't necessary for the proper functioning of the colon. Whole grains are high in fiber. It seems like the decrease in chloroplast is most likely why the colon got smaller. Not the decreased need for fiber.
      Did you ever think you not having the proper guy bacteria was why you had constipation when you ate high fiber foods?
      You can avoid fiber and eat a bunch of meat if you want. It just means a shortened life span, heart problems and colon problems.

    You only briefly touched on added sources if fiber artificially added/created, but perhaps you could cover that in a redo of this (if you ever revisit this, like you have with some older videos) or in another video?
    I think artificial sources of fiber may be more common, or at least more convenient in theory. An example is how some protein bars like Quest, No Cow, and Kirkland I believe all have soluble corn fiber in there. And lots of it. Then there's things like oat fiber, which are growing in popularity for things like baking or smoothies. I've even seen some store-bought foods I wouldn't expect to have these in them. Usually small amounts, but still.
    As things like green powders are becoming more and more popular as people struggle to eat their fruits and greens whole, so too are (or might) fiber additives increasing in popularity.
    Anyway, I think it's worth covering the effects of those, how viable they are, if they can even serve the same purpose as fiber, etc.
