Hey Goobie, I am a 75-year-old living in the woods in northern Minnesota. I love to toon in to your life's journey. I knew the standard American lifestyle was not for me and I knew that the standard American diet was not for me back when I was in my thirties. So I have been living the good life ever since. You have lost weight I can see it in your face. Thanks for your efforts You are helping people.
Mercy here...Goobie is doing what most of the world are not brave enough to address....his honest recovery is giving hundreds of thousands of us hope to find alternate tools to those that have failed us.... and with all due respect, if and when Goobie finds a new awareness, he is NOT going to hold back from sharing it..... what a blessing his life and intentions are....
Hi Goobie!! You are my role model. I’m extremely burnt out from work. I think I will go part time soon. I want to see and do things that make me the happiest: nature, art, music, books and spend precious time with my loved ones. I never have enough time. Thank you for giving me the courage to take the next step. Happy cooking !😊🙏🙏💕💕🍂🍁🍄🍄🐶
Hello, as Korean, been eating overdosed rice and flour all my life and the family history of stroke. At age 70+, my lab results indicated I’m just about heading for the same fate and for years I been striving for healthier lifestyle changes and it’s not an easy. One thing I added to my diet is black soy beans which you can find in any Korean grocery store. I cooked a large pot of the beans and freeze in a qt size bags. Black soy beans are not same as yellow soy beans and has less sugar, high protein and antioxidants.
You inspired me to finally roast the butternut squash that was sitting on my counter for a week 😂 I made soup while watching you and am now enjoying it ❤ Thanks for your relaxing videos, they feel like a visit with a good friend.
I’ve been eating a no added salt diet for 2.5 years and people think I’m crazy. Every time I get salted (usually from restaurant food) just like you mentioned I gain 4 pounds of fluid and it takes about 3 days to recover! It’s definitely not worth ruining how I feel for days afterward. I’m so glad you are talking about this because I think it’s a bigger issue than recognized and is hiding in plain sight.
The guitar really sounds wonderful! We are so happy that you’re having fun making videos cuz we are having a good time learning from you too. Thank you so much!
@@GoobieAndDoobieDoc, why don't you get certified in yoga and become a yoga master? Learn from some very good Gurus and help others because yoga is the final remedy for many ailments especially for the patients who have had some kind of surgery (for example knee surgery). I have friends who have had knee surgeries a few times but finally are able to walk and even jog everyday by doing yoga.
Hey Goob, thanks for inviting us into your home and showing us your hobbies and for all he helpful advise and insight! I hope you know what a positive influence you are in the world. Your friends and family are very lucky to have you.
Saw ur video about why you quit your job. Talk about brutal honesty ,,!! I loved it and I'm so happy for you and your wife and fur baby. God loves you❤
Hey! I’m a subscriber and really love your authenticity - I look forward to your videos every day. I know this might be a bit off your usual topic, but I think it would be fascinating to hear how you approach finances. Would you be open to sharing insights on your budget, lifestyle choices, savings, and thoughts on money? So many professionals (esp doctors) struggle with balancing finances, yet you’ve managed to step back from the rat race and focus on living meaningfully. It’d be inspiring to learn more about how you make it work. Keep up the amazing work!
Hi Goobie, San Marzano tomatoes are the best for you. I watch Dr Wlliam Li, a researcher and M.D. He researches foods and has written books. I highly recommend his RUclips channel and books. He does research on Foods and Cancer, very interesting as I was a counselor supporting cancer patients, leading support groups and stress management groups. Bless you Dear Goobie, I enjoy your channel and can definitely relate to so much you talk about. Best Wishes.
I def agree on salt. When I was being more health conscious with my diet, I noticed I ate reasonable portions and wasn't hungry. I cheated a little is past month and went back to eating way more takeout. I really need the will power to reset and go back to my low sodium meals.
@28:22 - I find that dry frying oyster mushrooms produces a very pleasant end product. I usually tear them in to shredded strips and dry fry them. Sprinkle seasoning on afterwards (doesn’t necessarily need salt since the mushroomy flavour is intense).
Bravo, Dr. Goobie! I live by the motto No SOS (sugar,oil,salt)! Well, with very rare exceptions. Dr. Goobie, there`s a very informative RUclipsr that I watch for lots of nutritional info: Dr Peter Rogers. He`s basically the next Dr. McDougall.
1:50 Regarding your question about the knives, as far as I'm aware, when a knife has those divots it's typically referred to as serrated and is meant to be used for things like pumpkins, bread, and other baked goods. The other knife-a flat edge-should be used for more delicate jobs such as cutting tomatoes, garlic, onions, etc. Also, when cutting onions the sharper the blade you have the lower the chance of your eyes tearing up due to fewer things getting ruptured and thus less chemical irritant being released.
@@stratocasterblue Yeah. I think when I left that comment I was only listening to the video during a walk so when he said something about divots in the knife I automatically assumed he was comparing a serrated against flat edge. Actually looking at the vid, yeah, neither of those are serrated obviously lol
@@dexedrine404 Ok so those divots keep delicate moist pumpkin bread from sticking to the side of the blade and making your bread crumble while cutting it I see thanks
Not sure if someone mentioned this already, but I put any squash in the microwave for a minute or three before cutting (careful, it will be hot, use a pot holder or something to protect your hands). Oh, and … Thank you Goobie, I’m enjoying you solidifying my knowledge about the WFPB diets! Pet Doobie for me! ❤🐶✌️
Squash....acorn squash, you can save the seeds and plant them in the spring Cut in half, of course clean out the seeds Bake but if you want a real treat in each half put in a bit of butter and brown sugar or maple syrup I would suggest a cleaver for cutting
Hearing your guitar sounds made me wanna cry. You're doing it. You're actually doing it. I will often queue spanish guitar acoustics without lyrics as I work my corp job. I find it relaxes me. Just like nature sounds. There is so much I wanna say, but I will end with just thanking you.
Good research, yes the benefits of water fasts, dry fasts, intermittent fasting is something worth researching as well as vibroacoustics, Bob Beck protocols, and the work of Anthony Holland, Raymond Rife, Rene Quinton.
Goobie i know youre a very educated man, but as someone who has many years in the diet and biochemistry/ physiology space, i highly recommend you learn about how sugar/ carbs in high amounts impacts kidney function/cellular fluid balance and how it affects the body vs how sodium does those things. Pleas do a deep dive into this, i think you'll be a little surprised at the results you find, especially looking at lowering sodium by large amounts because "it lowers blood pressure" impacts the bodies impact on insulin resistance.
Hi Goobie. For a retired Neurosurgeon, your knife skills in the kitchen leave much to be desired. Whether chopping or slicing/cutting, the main trick is the the blade must be absolutely sharp. That's why a new scalpel is always used for surgery. In the kitchen, you need to sharpen those blades regularly. For acorn squash, the initial cut, to halve the squash should be done with a cleaver. It has the weight and if the blade is sharp, will cut through easily. No need to hammer with your hand. If you are not successful chopping through, you can try using a rubber mallet on the back of the cleaver. At this point, I wouldn't recommend quartering the squash. Rather, use a spoon to remove the seeds and inner fibrous material. (You can save and roast the seeds if you like. They make a good and nutritious snack. Like I mentioned last t time, place the squash halves, face down on a microwaveable plate and pre-cook them in your microwave. Maybe 5 to 7 minutes. It's sort of like cooking a potato. You don't lose anything nutritionally, and the meat of the squash becomes soft enough to easily remove from the husk. If you are going to quarter the squash, like you did in this video, you always want the food that you are slicing as stable as possible for the best and safest cut. That means turning the halved squash open side down onto your cutting board. Again, use a cleaver to chop through the top outer shell. Happy cooking!
1:01:08 I personally have found I can gain about 10 lb in 2 days by eating a standard American diet. I found that out about 2 years ago. also when I'm 10 lb heavier I came to the determination that's inflammation. I also wear bracelets on both wrists and that helps me to tell my body's inflammation level. when inflamed I can only do about half the push-ups compared to healthy normal. also when I am not inflamed my muscles feel fast and light.
I water fasted for 22 days at the True North Health Centre in Santa Rosa this year. It was amazing! I no longer need high blood pressure meds and felt so healthy coming off the fast. I'm keen to go back to True North just to eat from their phenomenal SOS free buffet. No Sugar, Oil or Salt.
@@fruitloopbabe91 it was about $200 a day which included my own private room, 2 nurse visits a day to check vitals, 2 doctor visits a day, full 24 hour buffet 7 days a week. I did juice fasting, water fasting and reseeding over a period of 5 weeks. There was also free yoga. Tail Kwon Do and phenomenal health lectures 2 or 3 times a day. You get weekly blood and urine tests which cost extra but are minimal. I plan to to back. There were really fit people there just for the health Reset and boost. There were people with health issues that cleared with the protocol. The chefs gave lectures and cooking classes too. Life changing experience.
Goobie, I think good topic for a Scary Bedtime Story would be how salt is at the root of our Taker way of life. Even today when we don’t technically need much to preserve our foods we we continue eating it way beyond our needs because we (as a society) are addicted to highly processed industrial foods. I’ve seen the comparisons of Neolithic and Paleolithic skeletons and people blame grains for our decline in health with farming but I suspect salt (amongst other things) played a role. Even our wage slavery (salary) was paid in salt to Roman soldiers. It’s fascinating and disturbing at the same time. I think we are addicted and caught in a destructive pattern and salt is a big part of it all.
Thanks for sharing more about amanita muscaria. Seems best to avoid the actual mushroom unless you really know what you're doing. Nonetheless, interesting stuff going on in the world of different mushrooms and mind/health benefits.
Goobie, I will appreciate your thoughts on my situation, I respect all animals. I now have mice in my house, I have bought all of the herbals, essential oils, natural products to force them outside. But, no, they remain and multiply. I cannot have these little mice running around my house. I tried mouse traps, they are smart, ate all peanut butter and nuts without causing the release of the part that stops them. I am filling all spaces to avoid them from entering the house, and bought more to add copper mesh. Im exhausted. I also bought glue traps. I must get them out or end them . I wish I didnt need to do this but my health is an issue as well. Thank you if you see this and respond. Oh, that guitar sound is amazing, it makes me happy and relieves the stress I have been feeling due to mice and the insomnia they cause me. Best Wishes to you, Doobie and your wife. Bless you all.
Yes quinoa is good. Been having it for many years. Lately I tried half and half cup of organic millet and yellow moong lentils. Cook it like quinoa or rice. Very nice. I added slivers of young ginger a few cardamon pods a pinch of celtic salt and a teaspoon of buffalo ghee or clarfied butter..all optional. I too went to the gym today...strength training is impt and muscles know no age?? Once a week I have a trainer very young guy of 26 who says things like"u r stronger than u think"😂 and has me do bench step ups to to help lower body. The cat is emboldened by his tree house n despite his strange short legs and longish body scampers up the steps looks outside n now wants to explore the outside world which is not possible! Have a lovely day❤
39:00 As far as protein goes, I keep in mind that animal agriculture is very polluting, especially when all the newly developed countries are demanding animal products. I think the establishment discourages animal protein for that reason, too. I took Biology I & II as well as Environmental Biology in my undergraduate studies.
A quick tip if you want to avoid the difficulty of cutting a raw acorn squash. You can throw it in the oven at the roasting temperature for 10 minutes. Pull it out. Let it cool a little bit and then slice through with a lot more ease. I’ve prepared it in both ways (cutting raw and cutting after 10-15 mins of cooking before cutting) and I find the preheating squash much more safe when cutting through
Goobie I am happy to watch your help your body heal videos... your scary bedtime ones can be alarming and depressing for some but I understand your platform.
I support fasting and usually fast five to six days at a time, I hope to increase the duration of fasting as I have experienced the benefits over many years, I have watched many videos on autophagy and they always motivate me in prolonging the fast.
1) That high sodium is inflammatory and causes autoimmunity is established science. It's just so recent that it haven't become mainstream yet. 2) Civilization will not collapse - it will just continue to become more artificial and hence hamrful. Besides technological advancements and discoveries, we really aren't doing much constructive.
I'm enjoying your videos. Put the knife point into the middle of the squash. Then bring the handle down to the counter. You will have cut half the squash. Turn it around to the other side and do the same. The pointed part of the knife goes in easier than the whole blade. I cut watermelons the same way. Keep up the good work.
Hi Goobie! I want to express my appreciation and admiration for your courage and honesty to speak so openly about matters that are so personal and traumatic. I’m kind of living a similar situation as yours but I lack the courage and openness to speak about it not even with my parents and unfortunately I don’t have the support of a partner or a “Doobie” like you do. Your videos help me a lot emotionally but also provide a lot of useful info. in terms of health care which I apply as best as I can. I heard that you are considering oat milk as being very healthy which kind of arises some questions for me. It has been one year and a half since I changed the way I eat thanks to the methods of Jessie Inchauspé in her book Glucose revolution. As far as I know I never had glucose issues but I used to have digestive troubles, tiredness all the time and a high need to eat especially sugar which I tried to constantly control as I didn’t want to gain weight. So applying the methods in the book which aim at flattening the glucose curve or reducing the peaks of glucose not only solved my digestive issues but also brought me more energy and I don’t feel hungry as before. I even lost weight even if I eat more than ever. To come back to my question. From the info. I’ve got from the book of Jessie, oat is considered a cereal so high in carbohydrates ( the oat milk is even higher as it’s highly processed and there is a higher concentration of carbohydrates than in simple oat cereals) and it will cause a rapid increase of sugar in the blood and will lead to an increase of insuline so to peaks of glucose which can be harmful for the body and also for the weight regardless of weather you are diabetic or not. In her book better alternatives to oat milk is almond milk and even fat cow milk. I would like to know what is your opinion in this matter? Thanks and I hope you’ll find your way! ❤
Can you make a separate channel and do the music there on that channel (and it doesn't get monetized)? So that you can still keep this channel monetized? I do love the sound of your new guitar!
Interesting. Thought of watching your old video about salt last night. But anyway, love quinoa myself. I heard that it is good to soak it in water first for some hours before you cook it. It actually does come out fluffier.
Dr Jonathan If you want to hear a professional Korean guitarist Sungha Jung plays Depapepe Start, Depapepe One and Don't look back in anger very smooth and any of his arrangements with Depapepe is worth listening
I can listen to you for a long time, Goobie ❤️ Thanks for your videos, I agree with all your thoughts. I like salt, but I need to eat less and take care of my cholesterol, it's high even when I eat healthy foods, I weigh 45 kilos, I'm going to try acupuncture and try running a little. I don't use deodorant just milk of magnesia and coconut oil, after that I feel like I sweat more, it was a good decision
Your videos are very insightful and make me relax almost in an instant. Thank you for that. Maybe I should go to the sauna in winter more regularly again. The sweating might help me regulate the sodium more easily. On a sidenote, now I'm craving a mushroom dish. Very yummy😅
Love the idea of (for now) just leaving the van without internet access for uploads. It might be nice to have that separation from the trails and direct RUclips access. Keep your happy place clean and uncluttered!
Can't wait to hear you play Billie Eilish's "Birds of A Feather" on your new guitar!! The sound of your guitar is beautiful. Also, I heard that certain sounds are known to be very healing, such as the Singing Bowl sound used in meditation and of course, nature sounds!
The ratio is what is important. If you eat more sodium than usual, just take potassium. Potassium will drive out the sodium. Read the books by dr. Robert moore. From my experience, ive gotten benefits from taking potassium bicarbonate. For me, it seems that people develop a shortage of potassium. And this caused by too much sodium possibly?
Hi Goobie! I found that I tend get hyponatremia from too much water. I also don’t get enough salt. For me personally raising my salt intake by 1-2 grams makes me feel much much better after a few days.
I had good results on a 5 day fast that gave me some permanent benefits, then I had a bad experience where my inflammation and gut pain got worse. But I think part of it was overeating sea salt to restore electrolytes during bad experience.
Goobie you should check out Derek Sarno’s channel, he is a kind, compassionate vegan chef and has a video of 5 basic things about butternut squash, or something like that. He puts them in whole. You would really enjoy his kind spirit. He has been living in the UK for 10 years but moving back to US to live in his van with his dog. His fiance was killed in a car crash years ago and he has dealt with much grief. it would be neat if you two could get together somehow.
What is the most interesting thing in this world? “Man because he sacrifices his health to make money then he uses the money to recuperate his health; therefore he lives as if he is never going to die and dies having never really lived.” Having dreams is good, but one must know his limits and not be overly ambitious.
Please don't eat that toxic mushroom. We need you and your smarts. Super awesome watching and listening to you play guitar. Definitely want to hear more! There must be some fair use laws for playing instruments.
Hi Goobie! I’m loving your videos. You mentioned that some people have donated to your channel. I don’t see that you have a patreon account. Have you considered doing that? Thanks for your inspiration!
Could you touch upon antinutrients a bit more in another video? It get's a bit confusing to me in terms of what would be the best way to prepare/cook certain food. Also, should one discard the soak water (legumes, lentils, beans etc, not sure what's the exact differences between these terms)? I read you should soak and then discard this soak water. However, I also read that this results in loss of nutrients, tho not sure how significant. So not really sure what's the "best". Or could one not discard the soak water and just cook, would cooking destroy antinutrients ? When looking it up, it's not so clear, with some health benefits attributed to antinutrients and also some sources stating potential for gut issues or decreased absorption of some nutrients. Thanks
Hi I’ve read that some beans have some chemicals that aren’t good for us and benefit from soaking and discarding the soak water then cooking in a new batch of water. There are other chemicals like oxalates that can cause problems in high concentrations like from lots of spinach or rhubarb or beet greens. But other than that, I wouldn’t worry too much about much about antinutrients. I think a much bigger problem is too much salt oil and sugar ❤️✌️
I appreciate Dr McDougall’s practical advice on nutrition. I think he was not aware of long term storage of sodium in the insoluble form in skin and muscle collagen. This was discovered in the last less than ten years. If he was made aware before he died, I think he would have taken a slightly different approach on salt than the one he encouraged prior to his death. But it’s hard to say what someone would or wouldn’t have done. He was a brilliant man and an excellent doctor and communicator and teacher. He taught me a lot and I’m grateful that he answered an email I sent him with questions when I was early on in my career as a spine surgeon.
@@GoobieAndDoobie Mammals have developed a renal counter-current multiplier and exchanger system to protect them from dehydration and stores sodium in the skin and endothelial walls of the vessels to maintain homeostasis. Its amazing humans made it thorough all the trials and accidents to evolve this far
@ I was thinking some of the same things after finding that Dr. McDougall passed away. It seems that no one is sure what the root trigger for his earlier death, but some attribute it to his stroke that he had when he was 18 years old before he went plantbased. It’s so hard to say. There was a time when my husband and I were sold on his ideas on salt based on his studies on communities that lived long lives one high salt diets. We were also sold on the starch solution, but have strayed a bit away from his extreme views.
I'm surprised you haven't commented on saturated fat - heart disease link. Whatever the exact cause is, and my guess is that that saturated fat, ultra processed carbs, and high sodium all contribute to the problem, the solution is to focus on healthy eating patterns.
But thats one of the main reasons he says avoid meat/animal products too...the fat. Ultra processed he has mentioned and is also obvious by how he prepares and shows his meals.
Bali is a winner, citizens there make about 500 a month. a medical license will get a killer clinic. beautiful weather year around, organic foods, and no commercial slaughterhouse.

They make a good and nutritious snack. Like I mentioned last t time, place the squash halves, face down on a microwaveable plate and pre-cook them in your microwave. Maybe 5 to 7 minutes. It's sort of like cooking a potato. You don't lose anything nutritionally, and the meat of the squash becomes soft enough to easily remove from the husk.
If you are going to quarter the squash, like you did in this video, you always want the food that you are slicing as stable as possible for the best and safest cut. That means turning the halved squash open side down onto your cutting board. Again, use a cleaver to chop through the top outer shell.
Happy cooking!
Great knife tips! I don’t use a microwave, so what is best way to make it in a toaster oven like Goobie’s?
Doobie happy because you are happy and I am glad to see that. I hope your wife too. Best wishes to your family. The guitar is beautiful.
You could also wash and roast the seeds; they’re delicious and packed with many nutrients.
1:01:08 I personally have found I can gain about 10 lb in 2 days by eating a standard American diet. I found that out about 2 years ago. also when I'm 10 lb heavier I came to the determination that's inflammation. I also wear bracelets on both wrists and that helps me to tell my body's inflammation level. when inflamed I can only do about half the push-ups compared to healthy normal. also when I am not inflamed my muscles feel fast and light.
I water fasted for 22 days at the True North Health Centre in Santa Rosa this year. It was amazing! I no longer need high blood pressure meds and felt so healthy coming off the fast. I'm keen to go back to True North just to eat from their phenomenal SOS free buffet. No Sugar, Oil or Salt.
Far out that sounds incredible! If you don't mind me asking, how much did that set you back?
@@fruitloopbabe91 it was about $200 a day which included my own private room, 2 nurse visits a day to check vitals, 2 doctor visits a day, full 24 hour buffet 7 days a week. I did juice fasting, water fasting and reseeding over a period of 5 weeks. There was also free yoga. Tail Kwon Do and phenomenal health lectures 2 or 3 times a day. You get weekly blood and urine tests which cost extra but are minimal. I plan to to back. There were really fit people there just for the health Reset and boost. There were people with health issues that cleared with the protocol. The chefs gave lectures and cooking classes too. Life changing experience.
If you don't mind me asking how did they have you break your fast with celery and walnuts?
Hey Goobie, I really appreciate your video. It has been extremely beneficial to me. You ought to consider launching a podcast!
I believe in your words - future doctor here THIS WHOLE THING ABOUT SODIUM IS WRITTEN IN OUR PHYSIOLOGY TEXTBOOK BUT DOCTORS DONT CARE

Goobie, I think good topic for a Scary Bedtime Story would be how salt is at the root of our Taker way of life. Even today when we don’t technically need much to preserve our foods we we continue eating it way beyond our needs because we (as a society) are addicted to highly processed industrial foods. I’ve seen the comparisons of Neolithic and Paleolithic skeletons and people blame grains for our decline in health with farming but I suspect salt (amongst other things) played a role. Even our wage slavery (salary) was paid in salt to Roman soldiers. It’s fascinating and disturbing at the same time. I think we are addicted and caught in a destructive pattern and salt is a big part of it all.
Thanks for sharing more about amanita muscaria. Seems best to avoid the actual mushroom unless you really know what you're doing. Nonetheless, interesting stuff going on in the world of different mushrooms and mind/health benefits.
Glad you don’t edit your video’s, there so real than others
In my experience, once the squash is cut in half, turning it flat side down and cutting through the skin first is easier.
Good idea!
You need to tough it out instead of doubling the amount of time for the same amount of work
Goobie, I will appreciate your thoughts on my situation, I respect all animals. I now have mice in my house, I have bought all of the herbals, essential oils, natural products to force them outside. But, no, they remain and multiply. I cannot have these little mice running around my house. I tried mouse traps, they are smart, ate all peanut butter and nuts without causing the release of the part that stops them. I am filling all spaces to avoid them from entering the house, and bought more to add copper mesh. Im exhausted. I also bought glue traps. I must get them out or end them . I wish I didnt need to do this but my health is an issue as well. Thank you if you see this and respond. Oh, that guitar sound is amazing, it makes me happy and relieves the stress I have been feeling due to mice and the insomnia they cause me. Best Wishes to you, Doobie and your wife. Bless you all.
Yes quinoa is good. Been having it for many years. Lately I tried half and half cup of organic millet and yellow moong lentils. Cook it like quinoa or rice. Very nice. I added slivers of young ginger a few cardamon pods a pinch of celtic salt and a teaspoon of buffalo ghee or clarfied butter..all optional. I too went to the gym today...strength training is impt and muscles know no age?? Once a week I have a trainer very young guy of 26 who says things like"u r stronger than u think"😂 and has me do bench step ups to to help lower body. The cat is emboldened by his tree house n despite his strange short legs and longish body scampers up the steps looks outside n now wants to explore the outside world which is not possible! Have a lovely day❤
That sounds yummy 😋 I’m happy to imagine your cat thinking about exploring outside 🐱 ❤️
39:00 As far as protein goes, I keep in mind that animal agriculture is very polluting, especially when all the newly developed countries are demanding animal products. I think the establishment discourages animal protein for that reason, too. I took Biology I & II as well as Environmental Biology in my undergraduate studies.
Wow good vibes from the bass guitar. Very soothing to the ears.
A quick tip if you want to avoid the difficulty of cutting a raw acorn squash. You can throw it in the oven at the roasting temperature for 10 minutes. Pull it out. Let it cool a little bit and then slice through with a lot more ease.
I’ve prepared it in both ways (cutting raw and cutting after 10-15 mins of cooking before cutting) and I find the preheating squash much more safe when cutting through
I need to do this because I prepare some weekly and it’s such a pain to cut and peel!
The way Doobie was standing when she was looking at you giving her the peanuts made her tail look like a fluffy heart on her backside!😄🥰
Goobie I am happy to watch your help your body heal videos... your scary bedtime ones can be alarming and depressing for some but I understand your platform.
Hello! They are educational, and part of the big picture.
I support fasting and usually fast five to six days at a time, I hope to increase the duration of fasting as I have experienced the benefits over many years, I have watched many videos on autophagy and they always motivate me in prolonging the fast.
Can’t wait to hear that song Goobie! It’s a great song!
I’m glad I’m watching this and getting good information on how to cook healthier ty for the content, Rosie is soo dang cute btw, be kind rewind 😅
1) That high sodium is inflammatory and causes autoimmunity is established science. It's just so recent that it haven't become mainstream yet.
2) Civilization will not collapse - it will just continue to become more artificial and hence hamrful. Besides technological advancements and discoveries, we really aren't doing much constructive.
TIP: When cutting raw squash, heat it in a bowl of water in the microwave until outside is softer (5min) ~ super easy to cut after that!
I'm enjoying your videos. Put the knife point into the middle of the squash. Then bring the handle down to the counter. You will have cut half the squash. Turn it around to the other side and do the same. The pointed part of the knife goes in easier than the whole blade. I cut watermelons the same way. Keep up the good work.
Thank you for your valuable insight on life.
Hi Goobie!
I want to express my appreciation and admiration for your courage and honesty to speak so openly about matters that are so personal and traumatic. I’m kind of living a similar situation as yours but I lack the courage and openness to speak about it not even with my parents and unfortunately I don’t have the support of a partner or a “Doobie” like you do.
Your videos help me a lot emotionally but also provide a lot of useful info. in terms of health care which I apply as best as I can.
I heard that you are considering oat milk as being very healthy which kind of arises some questions for me. It has been one year and a half since I changed the way I eat thanks to the methods of Jessie Inchauspé in her book Glucose revolution. As far as I know I never had glucose issues but I used to have digestive troubles, tiredness all the time and a high need to eat especially sugar which I tried to constantly control as I didn’t want to gain weight. So applying the methods in the book which aim at flattening the glucose curve or reducing the peaks of glucose not only solved my digestive issues but also brought me more energy and I don’t feel hungry as before. I even lost weight even if I eat more than ever.
To come back to my question. From the info. I’ve got from the book of Jessie, oat is considered a cereal so high in carbohydrates ( the oat milk is even higher as it’s highly processed and there is a higher concentration of carbohydrates than in simple oat cereals) and it will cause a rapid increase of sugar in the blood and will lead to an increase of insuline so to peaks of glucose which can be harmful for the body and also for the weight regardless of weather you are diabetic or not. In her book better alternatives to oat milk is almond milk and even fat cow milk.
I would like to know what is your opinion in this matter?
Thanks and I hope you’ll find your way! ❤
Thanks Goobie for sharing this recipe… I’m Hungry .. .
Totally cool! But Doobie, Doobie is so very cute!
Can you make a separate channel and do the music there on that channel (and it doesn't get monetized)? So that you can still keep this channel monetized?
I do love the sound of your new guitar!
Interesting. Thought of watching your old video about salt last night. But anyway, love quinoa myself. I heard that it is good to soak it in water first for some hours before you cook it. It actually does come out fluffier.
Dr Jonathan If you want to hear a professional Korean guitarist Sungha Jung plays Depapepe Start, Depapepe One and Don't look back in anger very smooth and any of his arrangements with Depapepe is worth listening
Just wanted you to know that you are my favorite youtuber. I want to be your friend. I think you are a good friend in real life. Thank you, Goobie.
Beautiful sound of guitar
Thank you for sharing, Goobie😊❤.
Thank you & have a wonderful day 👍
I can listen to you for a long time, Goobie ❤️ Thanks for your videos, I agree with all your thoughts. I like salt, but I need to eat less and take care of my cholesterol, it's high even when I eat healthy foods, I weigh 45 kilos, I'm going to try acupuncture and try running a little. I don't use deodorant just milk of magnesia and coconut oil, after that I feel like I sweat more, it was a good decision
If it is cool I run wearing a sauna sweat jacket or put it on as soon as I stop running it makes you sweat a lot more
Your videos are very insightful and make me relax almost in an instant. Thank you for that. Maybe I should go to the sauna in winter more regularly again. The sweating might help me regulate the sodium more easily.
On a sidenote, now I'm craving a mushroom dish. Very yummy😅
I’ve been thinking the same thing about sauna 🧖
Love the idea of (for now) just leaving the van without internet access for uploads. It might be nice to have that separation from the trails and direct RUclips access. Keep your happy place clean and uncluttered!
Good idea asparagus X! ❤️❤️❤️
You're probably right about sodium but I love it so much
Can't wait to hear you play Billie Eilish's "Birds of A Feather" on your new guitar!! The sound of your guitar is beautiful.
Also, I heard that certain sounds are known to be very healing, such as the Singing Bowl sound used in meditation and of course, nature sounds!
Are you ok Dr. C ? We care about you.
Yes!
Stream of consciousness is not a performance. It is how a child communicates. This is how trust sounds. It just flows.
The ratio is what is important. If you eat more sodium than usual, just take potassium. Potassium will drive out the sodium. Read the books by dr. Robert moore. From my experience, ive gotten benefits from taking potassium bicarbonate. For me, it seems that people develop a shortage of potassium. And this caused by too much sodium possibly?
Hi Goobie! I found that I tend get hyponatremia from too much water. I also don’t get enough salt. For me personally raising my salt intake by 1-2 grams makes me feel much much better after a few days.
Can't wait for your next song. Would you do Blackbird (Beatles) with your nice guitar, sometime?❤
That’s a pretty song
I had good results on a 5 day fast that gave me some permanent benefits, then I had a bad experience where my inflammation and gut pain got worse. But I think part of it was overeating sea salt to restore electrolytes during bad experience.
Goobie you should check out Derek Sarno’s channel, he is a kind, compassionate vegan chef and has a video of 5 basic things about butternut squash, or something like that. He puts them in whole. You would really enjoy his kind spirit. He has been living in the UK for 10 years but moving back to US to live in his van with his dog. His fiance was killed in a car crash years ago and he has dealt with much grief. it would be neat if you two could get together somehow.
We have the same rice cooker🎉a very good one😊
Check out the counter-point at LMNT 'more salt not less' ...

“Chill Out”.
Go to Bali..
You will love it
Please don't eat that toxic mushroom. We need you and your smarts. Super awesome watching and listening to you play guitar. Definitely want to hear more! There must be some fair use laws for playing instruments.
Hi Goobie! I’m loving your videos. You mentioned that some people have donated to your channel. I don’t see that you have a patreon account. Have you considered doing that? Thanks for your inspiration!
I have low sodium because of CKD. Never know how to cook...but I still go lower salt in my cooking.
Could you touch upon antinutrients a bit more in another video? It get's a bit confusing to me in terms of what would be the best way to prepare/cook certain food. Also, should one discard the soak water (legumes, lentils, beans etc, not sure what's the exact differences between these terms)? I read you should soak and then discard this soak water. However, I also read that this results in loss of nutrients, tho not sure how significant. So not really sure what's the "best". Or could one not discard the soak water and just cook, would cooking destroy antinutrients ? When looking it up, it's not so clear, with some health benefits attributed to antinutrients and also some sources stating potential for gut issues or decreased absorption of some nutrients. Thanks
Hi I’ve read that some beans have some chemicals that aren’t good for us and benefit from soaking and discarding the soak water then cooking in a new batch of water. There are other chemicals like oxalates that can cause problems in high concentrations like from lots of spinach or rhubarb or beet greens. But other than that, I wouldn’t worry too much about much about antinutrients. I think a much bigger problem is too much salt oil and sugar ❤️✌️
@@GoobieAndDoobie Appreciate it.
Hi Dr Goobie! Yes you are pronouncing Quinoa correctly 😊
Love it all Goobie 👍
Love your videos and encouraged by you. What do you think about Dr. Mcdougall’s views on salt?
I appreciate Dr McDougall’s practical advice on nutrition. I think he was not aware of long term storage of sodium in the insoluble form in skin and muscle collagen. This was discovered in the last less than ten years. If he was made aware before he died, I think he would have taken a slightly different approach on salt than the one he encouraged prior to his death. But it’s hard to say what someone would or wouldn’t have done. He was a brilliant man and an excellent doctor and communicator and teacher. He taught me a lot and I’m grateful that he answered an email I sent him with questions when I was early on in my career as a spine surgeon.
@@GoobieAndDoobie Mammals have developed a renal counter-current multiplier and exchanger system to protect them from dehydration and stores sodium in the skin and endothelial walls of the vessels to maintain homeostasis. Its amazing humans made it thorough all the trials and accidents to evolve this far
@ I was thinking some of the same things after finding that Dr. McDougall passed away. It seems that no one is sure what the root trigger for his earlier death, but some attribute it to his stroke that he had when he was 18 years old before he went plantbased. It’s so hard to say. There was a time when my husband and I were sold on his ideas on salt based on his studies on communities that lived long lives one high salt diets. We were also sold on the starch solution, but have strayed a bit away from his extreme views.
Hi Gobbie… I’ll prepare this soup 🍜 delicious and Healthy ✨🍜✨🌟👏👏👏
I'm surprised you haven't commented on saturated fat - heart disease link. Whatever the exact cause is, and my guess is that that saturated fat, ultra processed carbs, and high sodium all contribute to the problem, the solution is to focus on healthy eating patterns.
But thats one of the main reasons he says avoid meat/animal products too...the fat. Ultra processed he has mentioned and is also obvious by how he prepares and shows his meals.
Bali is a winner, citizens there make about 500 a month. a medical license will get a killer clinic. beautiful weather year around, organic foods, and no commercial slaughterhouse.
Good morning from New Jersey
