Prop’s finely have a ad I’m going to buy into also loving you actively sharing your opinion more on story’s
Hey I made that joke first:(
As a Nevadan it is scary that she is running for office in my state. I can understand someone not having the same political views as me but there is no reason to act the way she has. I don't blame Ford for not debating her. And he has my vote.
If a politician said that in Australia the public would immediately turn against them. They would also be disqualified from running. It blows my mind what is tolerated in American politics
Australia is a pathetic country where citizens are treated like the property of the state. The wealth comes from shipping actual dirt to places with actual capabilities, our economic complexity is lower than many African nations. The government back doors every internet service and the docile cattle go along with it because they think it will stop pedophiles. As an Australian, we have nothing to be proud of, if you’re not a low income person America is superior in every conceivable way.
it's crazy to me how she tries to justify it as part of her cultural background or whatever of how terrorists would talk. so she's a terrorist now? LMAO XD
Disqualifying them from running seems to be saving voters from themselves.
Welcome to America, where Racism is a political ideology unfortunately.
Pauline Hanson tho
One of the reasons that GPs recommending patients to lose weight / restrict calories gets called fatphobia is because often, that's the only thing they want to look at. I was ~90kg at 5'10" (for me, the upper end of a healthy range) and was told my knee problems would go away if I lost weight. I'm now 74kg and have more knee problems than ever because it was ignored for so long. After changing doctors, we figured out I have hypermobile-type Ehlers Danlos syndrome, which affects my connective tissue. I was *dislocating my knees*. I wasn't even clinically obese, so I can imagine how difficult it can be for others who weigh more or are shorter. The problem also seems to disproportionately affect women. It's not just a GP "doing their job". It's a lazy copout by a doctor who doesn't want to investigate anything more difficult than ordering a blood test.
Okay, I just watched a video where a young girl in her early 20s was having pains eating and she went to her doctor and he said, that “would that be so bad?” When she said that she had lost some weight. It was later found by another doctor that she had colon cancer, she got surgery to remove it, but that first doctor that didn’t treat her because he thought she should loose some weight was totally uncalled for, she left the appointment crying, feeling hurt, unheard and unworthy. I think there should be a fine line between what a doctor can say and what they should keep to themselves, because we are going through our own health journey, and unless we bring it up that we are looking to loose weight, doctors shouldn’t mention it (unless it is also affecting the health condition you went in to get help for).
AG Ford is a unit, he’s able to see the overarching implications of these seemingly meaningless changes and looks to have an even head.
He's literally lying about Florida's education bill which prevents perversions from reaching the curriculum or classroom, he claims that it's just about "not saying gay". Where does he find these liars and why are they all coincidentally democrats?
I appreciate Ford’s interview. It’s completely fair to not debate your opponent when they’ve suggested to lynch you. He seems like quite a calm and organised person and I’d vote for him if I lived in Nevada.
I live in northern Nevada and I'm totally disgusted by that woman.
Oh yeah.
can't vote in that election since I'm next state over in California but donated a few bucks to Ford. I appreciate hearing how it felt as a democrat watching democrats sit out 2012 and losing majorities. When you called it a boycott, i wished there was a follow up by phil to ask what were people boycotting? what have democratic politicians failed to deliver when they have majorities that leads to democratic voters boycotting? perhaps too much attention to helping out corporate donors at the cost of keeping campaign promises? anyway, good job phil for keeping us focused on some of the things that will affect the future of this country.
As a thin person I think what I’ve come to understand about fatphobia in health care is that, similarly to women and POC, fat people are usually given lower quality healthcare bc of their size. Doctors will dismiss their concerns and basically chalk everything to their weight without any further assessment. It is malicious.
Yeah exactly. As a person in healthcare, many providers will completely disregard overweight peoples’ health concerns, and blame any issues on their weight. People deserve adequate healthcare and their concerns to be heard despite their size.
it's probably because fat people are more expensive to take care of, I think I read that a fat person is much more expensive to take care of. I just think that america having so expensive health care especially for just a average healthy person imagine how much more it costs for a person that's overwight. I am not american and I already feel the debt
As a healthcare worker, it might not be "without further assessment" but "further assessment is impossible due to size." Xrays of obese people look like shit due to all the fat, and diagnoses are more difficult or outright impossible. Veins are difficult or impossible to access, resulting in delayed or non-existent bloodwork. They LITERALLY cannot fit into MRI machines, which forces CT tests in their place but CT doesn't have the same spatial resolution as MRI does, meaning smaller pathologies might get missed. Surgeries are more dangerous and have more complications when large amounts of unnecessary weight is involved, and/or may be pointless because the weight will undo whatever was done to fix the patient in the first place (esp. in othopedics).
When we tell obese people to lose weight, we aren't trying to be mean about it. In some situations WE LITERALLY CAN'T HELP YOU until you help yourself.
@@SheenaMalfoy this is literally bullshit lmfao. xrays see through your body and check mostly like your bones. you can still be obese and easily get bloodwork from a hand or the crease of the arm. MRI machines sizing maybe. but i hate to tell you obese does not only mean 400+lb individuals- someone weighing over about 180-250 is what the vast majority fit into, based often on old data that didn't often even account for gender or many heights. many patients with some extra weight actually do better post-surgery, and tend to live longer. there is a threshold to that yes, but the bar for being obese is nowhere near what people often think it is.
as long as someone eats well and is active, that's more important than arbitrary numbers made up decades ago. numerous dieticians and people who look into weight loss science find out how much garbage science is out there, and how much science is ignored because it doesn't echo the pharmaceutical companies.
people also think having thyroid or metabolic issues is rare, and it's really not. 1 out of 10 women have pcos, which often presents hormone issues and insulin resistance which often causes weight gain and is comorbid with thyroid issues. birth control pills cause weight gain. antipsychotics cause weight gain. mobility issues, chronic depression and fatigue.
this is a systemic issue. food scarcity and food deserts often worse for impoverished americans and people of color, unwalkable US cities, forced dependence on cars, lack of lawmaking to ban the worst issues with commercial foods that are banned in the rest of the world and refusal to readdress our agricultural subsidy system.
oftentimes people who can afford to go to medical school are wealthy and able-bodied. we know doctors can be sexist, can be racist, etc- it's time we address how some doctors also have prejudice based on a patient's weight, which is also oftentimes a symptom and not solely a cause of medical issues.
@@SheenaMalfoy Those issues can happen with people on the extreme ends, but health problems being dismissed or overlooked is way more common than that. I have no issues fitting in an MRI machine and every phlebotomist who’s ever taken my blood has remarked about my “good veins,” and yet I’ve had doctors not even seem to consider looking further than my bmi when I bring up a health problem. Acting like the medical neglect that fat people experience is because we’re just too hard to treat or diagnose is at best naive, and at worst insulting.
Aaron Ford seems like a very responsible, respectable, wonderful human being that actually has a heart while his opponent seems to only want political gain and wants to harm a lot of women who need medical treatment for their own privacy. I do not understand why she wasn't disqualified for that text message stating that she would hang him from a crane. I hope he demolishes her in the polls and wins back the votes from the people in his state
I voted for Aaron Ford the last election and he will get my vote this this time as well, not just to keep certain people out of office but because he and Sisolak have done a fine job in my opinion especially throughout the pandemic and the election fraud allegations.
Absolutely. Nevada, specifically Las Vegas and Carson City had some of the lower ends of infections when it came to the pandemic. Hotels and Casinos in LV were even offering rooms for Drs and nurses so they wouldn’t risk their families
Same here. The right wing people here in Reno/Carson area are fucking crazy
Honest question: How have NV crime rates gone during AG Ford's time in office? That should be a big factor on who to elect. Have rates jumped? If so how are prosecution rates in that same time?
If they've risen sharply maybe Ford isnt doing so well. And maybe listening to the other candidates policies may be needed. Idk (nor do I really care) much about this race, but just putting the information out there.
@@ChesterCheeto You just ignoring this bruh ??? 10:46
@@ChesterCheeto What information are you putting out there? All you did was ask very pointed, biased questions, which you admitted to having no basis for. And by the way I just looked it up and at least violent crime has been down the last couple of years in Nevada, even while it rose in many other parts of the US.
How the hell are you even eligible for AG after calling for the current AG to be lynched?
That base loves the first amendment. Especially when it’s racially motivated.
@@kingchuckfinley I'm no law expert, but I'm pretty sure there are only a couple exceptions for freedom of speech, and that kind of comment could potentially be considered both. Yikes.
@@Acidfunkish Yeah, what she said was a literal death threat. But, of course she won't be charged and is still allowed to run. It's so awful that she likely won't face any real consequences for it.
@@Acidfunkish to be kinda boring its not exceeding free speech unless she calls for action. So saying you wish someone was dead is not illegal, only when you say you plan to kill someone does it become illegal.
I will say, as someone of a regular weight, that I do have a friend who definitely fits in the "obese" category because of genetics/health issues, but anytime she tries to get any other issue addressed by doctors they constantly just tell her to lose weight instead of addressing the actual issue. She eats well, (Better than me) and takes daily walks (Again better than me) but I'd never be treated with the same bias in mind. I agree with you for the most part! But some people genuinely are abused by doctors for no good reason because of weight.
This is extremely prevalent in the disability community. This is why it’s problematic to say this diet works for everyone because It negates the 33% of disabled people existing. (Or more because Doctors slap on obese rather than actually diagnosing). I came in with extreme fatigue this year and I got stuck with obesity and just dance away my way lol. Anyways my calcium and vitamin D wasn’t in the tank it was below the tank. It was in the dirt.
I can speak to this as a fat person myself. Also, I'm a healtcare provider, so it's doubly frustrating. So many fat people eat very well and are daily active and still their bodies don't change. These are personal things that are between a person and their doctor. Like abortion. In my opinion.
Getting fat shamed by doctors is a personal favourite pastime of me. I have chronic hip pain and the dr just keeps saying ‘lose weight and exercise more’ like some days I cannot walk HOW am I supposed to exercise more. Plus I also don’t have a desk job, I am ON my feet. I have PCOS, my genetics are NOT on my side. This specialist is a slim European man… he just will never get it..
Yo if ur still over weight and eat good and exercise then ur not doing it consistent enough or working hard enough straight up stop the excuses
@@jessice293 I’m surrounded with loving family and friends who never demonized food…but middle school kids then and the doctors now definitely gave me an ED.
I wish I lived in NV so I could vote for Mr. Ford! He clearly has the state in mind and appears to be a great fit for the people. I'm incredibly impressed, and I hope to see more of him.
Sadly I do live in NV, I will vote for him all day but man is it rough out here.
Appreciate the work you’re doing to help get important political voices to the forefront of younger media outlets. You’re doing work, Phil. 💪
It would be nice if he'd stop ever showing Ethan Kline and Hasan Piker as voices to listen to on this show though. Their combined IQ doesn't reach 50.
😂 yea a complete left bias without anyone ever on at the same time with a diff ent point of view…..
Just another political echo chamber.
This one just happens to be completely left biased

Re: the diet story: As a single mom who doesn't qualify for state aid for food assistance but barely has money to pay for rent/utilities each month without paying for gas and food, it's incredibly difficult for anything like fresh fruit and veg to be had when the "food budget" for the three of us is often less than $100 for two weeks. I wish I was exaggerating but I am not. If I didn't have a strict menu and coupon use method, food would be simply unattainable. And, no, for the record, this isn't a pity play, it's just the facts as I live with them.
I felt this. To the tee. I’m sorry hun
I can relate. I’m a single mom, and my budget for food is even tighter. I aim for $30 a week for three people. We eat a lot of rice, eggs, beans, etc. Meat is rare. I do buy fruits and veggies. Cabbage is pretty affordable and sometimes goes on sale.
But basic foods like eggs and milk have jumped in price so much lately. I used to say “if you’re hungry, cook an egg.” Now I say, “don’t eat too many eggs, they’re getting expensive…” :-(
why are you a single mom?
@@Andreamom001 why are you a single mom?
@@Andreamom001 I’m a single mom of four. I visit a food pantry as many times as they’ll let me. It helps with bread a lot because even that’s up by 3-4 dollars a loaf right now where I am. I wish I could help you more. Also there’s a community of people called free hot soup. There’s a bunch around the United States in different places and they come together for picnics free of charge and they usually bring other things with them like toilet paper and clothing, batteries, deodorant, and many other things. I hope there’s one near you.
Not sure if this has been said but you’re a really great interviewer!! Love seeing you interact with other people bc you ask really good questions that hit to the point of exactly what they want to talk about. Been watching since I was 14 and gotta say the progression and dedication to this channel is really awesome. Peace and happiness to you and your fam!!
I SO agree!!! He’s really got a talent.
The bigger problem when it comes to healthcare with obesity, in my experience, is not so much outrage over my doctor's acknowledgement of my weight but the fact that is where the conversation often stops, even with almost (technically everything is interconnected, to some degree, even if only tangentially) *unrelated health problems* that would have been at least seriously considered long ago for someone at a healthy weight. Many practitioners will see an overweight patient as their BMI without consideration for acute issues that would not be scrutinized or assigned as "your fault for not doing enough" for other patients. Combine that with the capacity for the extra weight to compound some of these issues (congenital ones, chronic pain, the like) and suddenly you have self-reinforcing cycles where people get sucked in without effective recourse regardless of personal effort. It can quickly become a demoralizing situation that wreaks havoc on your mental health, among other things.
To then see representation of someone even kind of like you considered inherently controversial for "promoting an unhealthy lifestyle" by virtue of existing feels like an extra kick in the face.
Cheap food is linked to poverty: tackling health issues related to food requires addressing poverty, so it was great to see you acknowledge the lack of availability related to food stamps. So often people blame individual choices with no context

@@Punkgurly15 you can eat very healthy cheaply. It’s just not tasty. The good stuff costs money.

You can eat cheap, if you basically only eat rice and beans. Try feeding that to picky eaters more than once per week, though. 😒
Thanks for showing Aaron Ford Phil! I am from Nevada and didn't know about him until today. Nevada is always a super weird state for elections because we allow so much to be free here and after hearing from him he is exactly the kind of person Nevada should have making decisions here. We may have a lot of problems here but I always feel proud being from Nevada because we do allow more freedoms than other states and I want to see that trend continue because even if its only one state people should be free.
Fellow Nevadan here. Agreed!
Another Nevadan here, totally agree as well.

Not that the republican in this case is at all desirable, but if you want more freedoms then voting for democrats is a bad idea.
I’m so glad he mentioned regression. I’ve been calling these “conservatives” regressive repubs for years, and I’ve proven myself right time and again.
How so?
@@GamingTrucker81 have you been paying attention
@@jhonnybravoh yes I only been recently been into politics since late 2018. Now I just been a news junky listening from both sides and there own way of thinking and perspective.
@@GamingTrucker81 for one american conservatives havent had a policy based platform for a while now, its just been obstruction and destruction. I cant think of a better way to describe an anti-democratic party like the current republican party than regressive without tos breaking.
Be wary of doing the enlightened centrism thing...a compromise with anti-democracy would mean...some democracy?
@@douglaslangley9251 but cant you say the same for the Democrats and the liberals as well? From what I been seeing it's mostly the conservatives giving the Democrats the inch and taking the mile. Only just since trump won and ran for office just seemed the people who voted for Obama and Bush wanted something different then the politicians. Not just playing centrist but I do have some conservative values including liberal values. I just dont understand the big picture of why people are at each other's throats.
I feel like these interviews really help people understand who the people they're voting for stand for and what steps they are doing to make it a better place to live in. The debates that are televised or ads that show up all feel so combative against the other party and never either feels productive or never outlines enough. I hope when you do these interviews you wont just focus on just one side and give all parties a change to show what they stand for and the plans they want to push forward.
All I know is the if the party I don't agree with, hates someone so much you can see it on the ads, I am voting for that person.......lmao
I agree give everyone a fair shake and not use party politics or just dumb takes from debates. Phil not going to do that because I can just simply watch othe people who interviews GOP. I always thought MTG was crazy till you actually sit down and listen to her she makes a lot of sense. I get better takes on dems from Phil even though I don't completely agree with him.

The part of processed foods that doesn't get talked about enough is the amount of added sugars found in American foods. So much of what we buy has unnecessarily added sugar (often in the form of corn syrup) that you don't see in comparable foods throughout the rest of the world. A big part of this is due to corn subsidies in the US. Instead of propping up corn to the extent that our food manufacturers are putting corn syrup into everything, let's give more to fruit and vegetable farmers so that the prices of healthy foods come down to make it more affordable for everyone.
But… but… profit…?
Those corn guys have ties to extremely rich millionaires, its extremely un-American to cut into their profits and redirect that wealth to benefit to poor….
In the USA if you are poor then its your own fault and should be spat on for being lazy, whereas the rich should be treated like gods and given all the tools to shield their wealth, stop people competing with them and keep the poor poor.
(Hope you understand the sarcastic / ironic tone, sad I think I need to explain it…)
@@jonsmith5058 that's why the united states is the best first world country in the world! /sarcasm
I agree with you whole heartily. I start cooking more of my own foods because I receive a sourdough starter from a friend. I was shocked at how many things like box noodles have sugar when homemade noodles don't call for sugar.
Dude, you don’t have time for my rant for how much corn subsides have fucked American industry and the American public and (their) welfare and probably some other stuff I’m not even thinking of.

@@TheDragonsDreamer not only that, but alot of things can be made easily made At home. I regularly make not only my own bread and noodles, but yogurt, cheese, mayo,saurkraut, vinegar, and butter.

This way I can control what goes into what I eat. More specifically controlling the sugar content.
What a great interview.
Best of luck to AG Ford on his reelection.
Phil, I think a part of the conversation that’s missing here when discussing doctors and weight loss is when said doctors blame all ailments on a persons weight and any further exploration of what the patient went in for is shut down. Especially when women are seeking medical care. Yes, weight - poor diet and exercise - can cause many health issues but patients often feel completely disregarded when they’re experiencing an issue unrelated to their weight and are unable to receive care until they lose the weight and prove it’s unrelated.
I came to comment this exact problem! I had my pain and health ignored for close to ten years because I am slightly overweight. When I finally demanded an x-ray of my spine for the scoliosis that I had been diagnosed with before all the pain, the same doctor that ignored me for years looked at me and told me I was lucky I was able to walk with how twisted my spine was. I finally got recommended to a specialist and found out that my ribs were 5 to 10 years away from piercing my lungs. I had to have surgery that I am still struggling with recovery from that, had I been listened to in the first place, I may have never needed or if I did still need the spinal fusion, it could have been done when I was younger and better able to recover from. Scoliosis is a genetic condition that had nothing to do with my weight but that doctor could have led to my death at 30 years old because of it.
My weight was actually a symptom but doctors refused to believe I hardly ate and was very active (despite crushing fatigue). They said I was lying (and that any other symptoms were all in my head) and accused my mom of being in denial over what/how much I ate. They'd come up with a new excuse every time she shut them down- it was ridiculous. They also ignored abnormal lab results and lie, saying they were all normal. I started getting sick at 10 but wasn't diagnosed with a pituitary until I was 17 and it was only because my mom wouldn't give up. When the tumor regrew it happened _all over again._
It is very, VERY common, especially with women- we just aren't believed and there's plenty of evidence to back that up.
@@PumPumRat I’m sorry that happened and I wish you luck on your recovery
AG Ford has a great head on his shoulders. I hope he gets re-elected
I've made it a point to eat healthy and I cook "clean" food every day. The amount of forethought it takes to plan, purchase, and execute a week of meals within a budget is honestly equivalent to a part-time job. I know that there are parents out there that want the healthiest option for their families, but on top of food costing money it costs time that I know busy, working people do lack. There's much to be said about the work culture of the US and how it can suck the life out of you to the point of resorting to packaged meals in an effort to reclaim your time.
that's so true! I really had to start sort of making cooking a hobby in order to "justify" spending the time and energy on it to myself. now, it's become something I get to do for myself that has near immediate gratification and is not on a screen but it's so much time and planning
@@MarleneSophieCompton How you do it, Marlene?
I feel you! I love to cook and so cooking home-cooked meals is like a hobby but it is a few hours out of every one of my days (i’m sure I could spend less time, but I do like it and it affords us more variety and elaborate meals) I have no idea how single parents or homes for parents both work 40+ hours a week plus commuting plus getting everybody ready for their day-to-day activities could ever support it.
It’s a good start, but shorter work weeks or shorter work days, appropriate pay, help with childcare, mental health support, building cities that do not promote obesity in their design… These are all equally as important
This is such a great point. Back in the day we likely just ate better because 1. We didn’t have other options (even in the 80’s when I was a kid we only went to a restaurant MAYBE once a year) and 2. Because more families had one parent full time at home. Before that all families did. So ya, there was time. It was pretty much mom’s unpaid job to do it.
Now with so many working, even 2 jobs, there’s literally no time!! If that doesn’t change nothing will.
You nailed it. That’s the one of the biggest problems we will have to solve before we can have a serious conversation about universal healthcare.
Gotta say, I’ve really been loving the interviews you’ve gotten to do on this show the past few months. They don’t feel forced (conversationally or pacing for the show) and I think it’s kind of refreshing to see the interviewees take to internet shows like yours. Great moves, keep it up
When it comes to doctors and fatphobia, I've definitely had doctors ignore some of my specific health concerns just because I was overweight. I ended up having to speak to seek another doctor at a different clinic and not everyone is that lucky. Equally doctors have stressful jobs and I know they cannot respond to public criticism directly from patients as it would be a privacy violation. Still generally speaking, being uncritically mad at people who call doctors fatphobic is misguided in my opinion.
I don’t think anyone takes the term “Fatphobic” term seriously.
@@fuziontonygaming Hobestly the word is a it.. terrible. I agree that it's a problem and a lot of people definitely act like overweight people are lesser... but that word is kind'a cringy lol
Yeah this. I’ve been told multiple times I need to lose weight when asking about another issue. I’m lucky it hasn’t ended up in my death yet, when I’ve seen others for which it has come to that.
back in july i changed my whole life around. i started a daily workout, Stopped vaping and started a healthier diet. I thought the vaping cut would save me 40/50$ a week. It did, but instead of saving that money i ended up spending it grocery shopping. I added 50 to my grocery budget so that i can afford healthier foods, and i still come back from the store with less food than i used to for the same amount. Its helping me with my diet goals but the expense of healthy eating is starting to feel like a trap.

Glad you're doing better, and hope things get easier. But be prepared for some rough times. All food is going to be increasingly expensive for the next few years, if current trends (climate, water, conflicts) continue.
What saved me the most on money and health other then 12,000 steps daily was portion control, it sucked at first eating less and by that I mean normal portions, but what i spent on 1 meal is now 2 meals.
but I use to eat whole large chicken breast for a protein and now I can cut a large into 3rds or a regular into 2 portions, pair this with dried beans or rice which are cheaper and better then canned and a head of broccoli makes 2 meals now... that seems to be the best thing I have done.
part of that is the conditioning with restaurants and their obsurd food portions, we even share those when we go out to eat cutting our eat out price in half as well lol
I lost 50 pounds so far eating what I want no diets just workout, and proper portions that I can afford and fill me up.
I'm from the UK and scared about these energy price increases. If the predications of £3500 per year come true, then my energy bill will be more than 10% of my yearly income BEFORE my tax, national insurance and student loan deductions.

For the government to expect people to pay those prices is just outrageous and they need to step in. People on welfare would not be able to cover that. Given how harsh the weather can be they will have deaths. You just can’t pass those prices on.
Doctors can sometimes write you off a bit quickly. Mine wrote me as having "obesity due to excessive caloric intake" when we had discussed nothing of my eating habbits before reffering me to a nutritionist. I know i eat like 12-1400 calories a day (and feel fine/full, Im a culinary arts major and do have a bit of nutritional background). But i also know i had knee surgery and covid severly limiting activities for the past 5 years.
Why is everything called a ban these days? "I was meant to get banned for 3 days" that's not a ban, a set amount of time you can't do something is called a suspension.
As a voter in Nevada, thank you for the in depth interview with our AG. I had no idea his opponent is so extreme. I wouldn't want to be in a room with her for a debate if I was running against her, and I feel like her comment about lynching him should disqualify her, especially since it (finally) is a federal crime. I would argue that her comment is even a threat against a public elected official.
Lynching is now a federal crime? or wanting someone lynched?
Don't get me wrong, it should _de facto_ disqualify her, but _legally_ disqualifying someone for their leaked texts would not be a good idea. Unless it rose to the level of conspiracy to commit murder.
Also, shouldn't lynching be illegal on the grounds that it's murder already? Hate-motivated murder of a protected class, at that. Does making a separate law against lynching achieve something? (that's a genuine question, not a rhetorical one)
If possible, please tell your neighbors or friends how extreme the opponent is. For these off years, it’s easy to forget to vote or get discouraged and avoid doing research about the candidates. If your ballot has 3 pages, you don’t need to fill out every bubble; you can vote only for the candidates/propositions you know about and leave the others blank. Voting for one element is better than not voting at all. Your voice matters. (Sorry for the rambling)

A few years ago I got hit by a car and have been suffering from lower back pain ever since. Earlier this year I had an appointment with a physical therapist who said that my back pain was more than likely cause by my weight. His words were "i believe that if you'd lose a few pounds your back pain will go away. I truly believe that the car didn't do anything." I am 175 lbs and 5'5. I got offended and left after telling him that I was 175 when I got hit and I'm 175 now. I didn't have back pain until I got hit by that car. I went to physical therapy before that appointment and never did any of them say that my weight is the reason for my back pain.
H-.. how the actual fuck does getting hit by a car NOT mess up your back!?
A nice percentage of people are natural born assholes.
I'd find a different doctor.
It is known that a significant population of doctors and healthcare providers have lazy views on weight-related health issues, especially regarding women. The issue is, weight does affect your health, and many people will cry "fatphobic!" as though the mere mention of weight affecting health is inherently discriminatory, and it should never be addressed by a provider.
There's definitely a need to reform these providers, to really emphasize how incompetent these views are, because they're based entirely on laziness and personal bias. But, we also need to have people stop cheering on obesity as inherently inclusionary; promote healthy diets and lifestyles, and work with providers who will focus on your health to get you as healthy as you can get.
Uh... you only listen to doctors who don't criticize you for your lifestyle. You are just setting yourself up for an early grave, especially if you refuse to even see doctors who tell you your weight is a problem
Damn, while I could see losing weight could alleviate some pain to dismiss a whole car accident is nuts
As a Nevadan, I’m very happy that you’re bringing awareness to what’s going on in our state. Thank you Phil!
I've had migraines and back pain even when I wad skinny, doctors now say it's because I'm fat and honestly it's really disheartening
exactly, this is what people generally mean when they talk about doctors being biased towards fat people. They don't mean that it's never valid for a doctor to give advice on losing weight, they mean that symptoms that would be investigated further if brought up by a slim person are often dismissed as related to weight with not a single thought given to any other possible reason for their existence. That then leads to people going many years without being properly diagnosed and which can make treatment much harder.
@@emmao6578 it is even worse for fat women. Like yes, some of my issues would go away with weight loss, but when doctors refuse to take people seriously, just because of their weight, it makes people not trust doctors ro care for them
@@daniellehammon3158 I feel for anyone who's health issues are dismissed for such judgmental/illogical reasons, the potentially worsening health issues you're living with is bad enough but the mental/emotional turmoil you deal with from essentially being gaslighted about your own health is really the cherry on top of the whole shitty situation. Stop here unless you want to read my sob story, I'm afraid all this talk of dismissive doctors made me word vomit.
I was finally diagnosed with narcolepsy (a chronic condition where the brain is unable to properly regulate the sleep/wake cycle) at the age of 19 after having multiple symptoms for over 10yrs. We brought it up multiple times at the doctors over the years only to be dismissed with "of course she's tired all the time, she's a teenager, she'll grow out of it" and when my mum actually brought up narcolepsy, listing the many symptoms I experienced on a regular basis, they said "it's really rare, she probably doesn't have that".
Of course the main symptom was excessive daytime sleepiness no matter how much you try to sleep at night, which lead to me frequently falling asleep in class, minor bullying, teachers telling me I had so much potential if I would only bother to do the work (easier said than done if you fall asleep when trying to concentrate for any length of time) and me internalising the belief that I was lazy like people said. I'd become so convinced it was somehow a personal failing, that maybe I just wasn't trying to stay awake hard enough, I'd given up on the doctors completely. I'm forever thankful that my mum kept pestering me to try again, dragging me with her and in the end essentially demanding they check for narcolepsy no matter how rare it was.
If the race for AG in Nevada is serving as any indication of what the country will be in the coming months/years....hooo boy we might be in for a rough time.
I mean with so many people being apathetic to voting, especially local elections, this was pretty much expected to happen.

People also need to realize that even after you've made the decision to eat healthy and exercise more you'll still be fat for a WHILE, and you know what helps keep you going on this new healthy trend? Clothes that actually make you feel and look good.
It took me ages to find clothes that actually worked with my body type and it was hell until then.
I had this same thought back when some sportswear company (Nike maybe?) released a line of plus-size workout clothes a few years ago and people freaked out about them "promoting obesity." Like... don't you think having comfortable clothes that fit well will encourage people to exercise more than shoving them into something that's too small and/or really uncomfortable??
And as you said, clothes that make you look and feel good at any size can really help with motivation as well. Self-confidence is a powerful motivator, especially for people whose weight may be influenced by mental health.

Nobody gives a crap. This is the definition of something blown out of portion. Oh gee there aren’t clothes for people that are severely obese, then try to avoid getting there.
@@fuckyoutube3434 Some people will look at themselves and think they're ugly because people like you tell them they are, and then that transfers into them deciding that they'll never be as fit and handsome as all the celebrities and so they shouldn't even try, leading to the epidemic of obesity we have now. Letting fat people feel good in their clothes makes them more likely to lose weight.
Plus size clothing has been a thing forever. Thrifting and looking at major clothing sales usually all that's left is the XXXLs. Wth are u even talking about. Took ages. I think that just says a lot about the type of person with these issues. Lazy. Plain and simple. Unless you live rurally Fashionable plus sized clothing is easily found. And if not there's also the internet and You could always learn what a tailor is for and have them make further adjustments to your clothing with the added plus of being able to add personalized touches and accents. Make all the excuses you want. There are plenty options for those who aren't lazy.

“Are willing to buy”… no we are forced to pay to live 😂😂😂
I’m disabled and have chronic pain. I’ve struggled with my weight my entire adult life and have been every size. I have no problem with doctors telling me they’re concerned about my weight or telling me it’s something I need to work on, what bothers me is when doctors act like my weight is the cause of my other health problems. They have existed no matter what weight I’ve been and acting like its the problem or the real cause does my treatments a disservice. Also things like BMIs were created around mens bodies and don’t consider things like breasts. Even at my skinniest, with breasts that fluctuate between an E and an F I’m always considered overweight/obese even when I’m really not.
I have fun of being overweight, but my pain and anti anxiety medication caused the massive weight gain and makes it impossible for me to be full, even on 1400 calaries a day I dont lose weight- plus I can't do consistent exercise cos it leaves me bedbound with fatigue.
I hate that so many doctors think weight = health issues when often it isn't
Even if your weight isn’t exactly the “cause” of some of your issues, the cause of you gaining the weight is likely contributing to your issues. It can be a proxy for the actual cause.
@@kuhmpashun Disabilities are more complex than you're making them seem. I have herniated disks in my back and neck, psoriatic arthritis, and endometriosis, among my conditions. Some medication for certain conditions makes me gain weight. If I push myself too hard, I sustain injury and am unable to function even at a reasonable baseline (meaning I'll miss work). Because of this, it's very hard and sometimes not possible to work out. Restricting calories too much will also make me ill, but it isn't possible to lose weight without restricting unhealthily. So, what's the easy solution there? Diet pills aren't an option. Ending medications isn't an option. Exercising more isn't an option. Eating less isn't an option. Also, I'm on an anti-inflammatory diet as prescribed by my medical team.
☝️I’m literally a hundred pounds soaking wet and live with chronic pain and fluctuating mental health. Weight is not the only source of pain - I got my pain under control and I lost weight. Being out of pain boosted my mental heath for a short time but the weight lost eventually brought me back to garbage mental health. What balanced me out was my neurologist backing me up with a solid plan to deal with the pain and an awesome therapist. Therapist not psychiatrist. The latter prescribed a medication and tanked my vitals and enraged all of the neurologists team, and my primary doctor. To summarize, not all doctors are the same if one won’t support your health goals, if they aren’t listening to your whole health picture-> GET A NEW DOCTOR. I know it sounds simple, I know it’s complicated, but I’m telling you the right team will make all the difference.
@@kuhmpashun its not black and white.
I suffer nerve pain, serve mental instability and if I didn't treat it with medication, I wouldn't function or leave my bed. The choice I have is be overweight and have to eat low calories just to keep my weight from increasing, or be unable to live any form of a life.
I'm not heavily obese, I'm maybe 20kg over my BMI recommended weight, but I'm literally eating 600 calories below my recommended calories intake and that does nothing. I still eat super healthy, non processed foods, fruits and veg etc.
Sometimes someone will be overweight and obese for reasons outside their control or due to medical reasons, which is why it shouldn't be as stigmatised as it is.
I am obese. I've lost 120lbs. When I topped out at 360lbs, my doctor retired and I had to find a new pcp. First one I saw asked if I would consider gastric bypass surgery. She hadn't even read my chart and it was THE VERY FIRST QUESTION SHE ASKED ME. I averaged 1000 calories per day of healthy foods. I was finally able to exercise, after 10 years of struggle and have made major improvement. We need to stop assuming that all fat people have control issues. I'd actually like to see a study that separates food sourced obesity will medical obesity. Needless to say, I didn't see that doctor again. And I'm still slowly losing weight, though it is difficult when my SNAP benefits better covers junk foods.
1) I’ve been seeing the double food stamp at farmers markets thing in a lot of places and I think that’s awesome but it’s not enough. Fresh food has to be prepared, working several jobs leaves little time for that. Not to mention exercise. After I’ve been on my feet for 12 hours, the last thing I want to do is go to the gym on top of that. But being on your feet 12hrs a day doesn’t count as exercise. You can still be fat. We need to actually improve the material conditions of the impoverished. But we not gone do that.
3) Doctors actually do have an overwhelming problem with dismissing fat peoples problems as connected to their weight even when they aren’t.
2) People can eat right and exercise and still be fat just like they can eat junk and sit around and still be skinny. I’m genuinely so sick of willful ignorance on this topic.
So refreshing to hear this AG have his head on straight. Thank you for having him on and doing these interviews!!!
There wont be one single solution to solve the health crisis in the US. Not only are crap foods more readily available to the exact folks who barely have time to breathe, people who were raised with convenience foods dont necessarily understand what impacts their poor diets are having on them until reality hits them. Ive seen it a number of times within my community.
Literally tho I watch these videos and it’s not like I DONT know I’m slowly kms it’s just A, the food is addicting and hard to break free from and B, that kind of food is SOOOO cheap and I live closer to 3 dollar generals than I do my local Kroger/Publix so it’s much easier for me to grab my 4 cheese Digiorno Pizza that it is to grab a bag of honey crisp apples. America focused too much on poverty and feeding the poor. In doing so, we’ve made all these products that kill us slowly. The fact that they taste so good and satisfy our hunger so well is scary and what makes these food dangerous. People, especially in a country where people are able to get comfort foods instead of only what you need, tend to go to food to please the problems they have in life even if they don’t notice it. I’m malnourished (self diagnosed) and I can’t eat a full 4 category meal with meat starch and veggie, but I can sit here on yt, with a whole family bag of Fritos, and straight up destroy it. We should have local growers and small farmers revive local farmers markets and inspire state law makers to make food stamps available in those places and we should advertise local small growers instead of industrialized factory farms. That’s my thought and I’m sure I could think of more stuff to HELP but it would need to take all of America to fix this problem.
That, and the fact that it's really cheap and already made to eat. A lot of people have weird work schedules and don't have a lot of time to slow down and cook healthier foods.
@@BlazingCosmos bro, i only started cooking for myself recently and it takes SOOOOOO long. it took me an hour to cook enough food for a few tacos, but it only takes me 5 minutes to heat up a packet of ramen
On top of that the pharmaceutical companies who fund the government will never want to actually encourage Americans to live a healthy lifestyle. It’s much more profitable to keep Americans obese on all kinds of metabolic syndrome medications.
The biggest thing causing obesity is the food pyramid taught to all children is upside down. When it was first created by doctors it was changed to make more money
I had a serious health wake up call. I had to start eating healthy and my grocery bills LITERALLY tripled. Unfortunately I'm seeing progress which means my doctor was right so... Gonna have to keep doing this incredibly expensive thing.
@@Zain12131 If they live in a food desert, which is a horrifyingly large part of the country at 10% according to the USDA, it definitely can and will. I obviously don't know their situation, but I would avoid blanket statements like that because you don't either. Eating healthy cheaply is very much not a doable thing for a large part of the country, especially when it often requires food prep and planning to even try and stay within budget, which is time a lot of people don't have.
If it makes you feel better, it'll probably decrease the medical bills, which are huge in the USA.
@@Visplight it probably won’t decrease medical bills enough to compensate unless you think they have a doctors appointment multiple times a week. Under my parents old insurance which was pretty shitty in most regards it was only like $20 copay a visit. That’s not nearly as much as trying to have a healthier diet
Maybe you know this, but frozen vegetables are just as good as fresh, and way cheaper too. You don't have to worry as much about the quality of frozen produce, and since it gets frozen closer to peak freshness it's at peak nutrients as well.
I stay under $50 a week eating fruits and vegetables. You’re just doing it wrong
As a Nevadan, it honestly blows my mind when the politics start going towards a more conservative path here. It's like they don't understand what Nevada, Las Vegas was built on.
I'm really liking this AG Ford. I'm not from Nevada, but if I we're, he would have my vote. Even in the face of blatant hatred and disregard for him as a person, he remains so calm and clearly lays out his plans and intentions. We need more politicians who are reasonable and willing to fight for Americans and the truth behind elections (which is that Biden won in a fair manner).
FINALLY! A celebrity publicly stating that healthy food is more expensive than garbage food! Every time I bring this up, I'm shot down. Produce is expensive. Apples are $2.49 per pound. Head lettuce is $2.99 each where I live.
Not to mention if you have food insecurity, produce doesnt keep you nearly as full for as long as some higher calorie garbage food. Which makes it a less viable option when you do have to make the choice with your last $20 for the next couple weeks
Not to mention it goes bad pretty quickly
@@abookishmess This has always been a sticking point for me on this discussion. Even in cases where produce IS less expensive (which differs wildly from item to item and place to place), produce doesn't stay fresh for very long, not all produce is easily frozen, and if you don't live within close walking distance of a grocery store the cost for transit or gas to make more frequent trips to buy fresh produce will more often than not make it considerably less affordable than shelf-stable or frozen processed foods.
There are many food deserts even in countries like the USA.

I am a registered Republican in Nevada and will be voting for AG Ford.
As someone who has had weight issues their entire life due to Hashimoto’s Thyroid disease I can tell you from experience fatphobic doctors can be a problem. Sometimes they will completely dismiss any issue you have because you’re fat so that must be the issue. I got athsma out of -nowhere- with no history of athsma when I was 25. My doctor wanted to check me for sleep apnea and told me to lose weight.
Fast forward a year I have lost 170 lbs, I’m under 200 lbs for the first time since middle school. I STILL HAVE ATHSMA, and am just now getting treatment and being taken seriously. I shouldn’t have had to lose half my body weight to get effective treatment for non weight related conditions.
My adult onset athsma was caused by severe allergies. Which I would never have known had I not lost the weight.
Right with some doctors, you could come in with your arm completely off as a fat person and be like "hey, my arm is off I need help!" And they'd be like "hmmm probably a good idea to lose some weight!" 😒😒😒 it took me AGES to get my bowel endometriosis diagnosed, which is hereditary and HUGELY runs on my mother's side of the family (75% of the women in my family have it), bc I'm a bit on the overweight side. I'm not even extremely obese and they didn't want to listen to me. *sarcasm* clearly all my problems were from my weight and not a hereditary disease that I statistically was likely to have. Finally a Dr listened, had me examined through exploratory surgery and sure enough.....its endometriosis JUST LIKE I SAID. Could have had a diagnosis years earlier had Dr's just taken me seriously instead of just seeing me as an overweight person.
You've asthma because you're older and fat. Start swimming, that will increase your lung strength and decrease asthma symptoms.
Question:
Your doctor wouldn't give you the allergy panel while you were overweight?
I just responded to someone what consisted of fat shaming, and your example is unfortunately what most overweight people deal with.
If I have trouble breathing, telling me to lose weight is a laugh. I need air to move, sooooo..
@@AgaveBrown1128 They didn’t even consider it as a possibility. They told me I was so big that my body weight is crushing my lungs and that’s why I suddenly got athsma. Not taking into consideration I had been obese my entire life due to thyroid disease and didn’t have this problem before. Incredibly frustrating.
@@CaptainCrowShayHook I am so sorry for your treatment.
Doctors be on something fierce.
Don't say "Treat food as medicine" in the US, it'll end up costing as much as a drop of insulin 🤣
All jokes aside, I used to be slim through having a normal diet back when I lived in Europe. With the same diet I had in Europe, I've gone 2 sizes up in the US. It's absolutely fucking bonkers how bad the food is here...
It's not only the food but the life style. In the US people live in cars, hardly ever do people walk more than to their driveway. In Europe you walk everywhere. You walk to the subway, you walk to the bus, you walk to buy groceries, you walk to work, you walk everywhere all the time. That makes a huge difference.
see, I've lived in the southern US all my life, with all the good food down here I'm still in excellent shape, I even body build and all that comes with that, protein consumption, calorie counting all that stuff...but the part that scares me is the preservatives stuff, because I often turn to frozen or canned foods to save on cost or just simply because they last.
it really feels it's unhealthy in more than one way, I may never get obese but if I die from cancer ingesting preservatives does it even fucking matter I died with abs? ya know what I mean?
Do you think it is the content of the food, the portion sizes of the food, or the price of healthy foods vs unhealthy foods that had the biggest change for you, out of curiosity?
@@veritorossi that'd be an issue with no immediate fixes. the majority of cities in the us (outside of like, new york or miami) were explicitly designed for car travel. its incredibly unsafe for bikes or pedestrians. im lucky that i can take a bike to work, since its only a 10 minute bike ride and theres a sidewalk the entire way. but thats not at all possible for the majority of working people.
Then leave.
Love that you're including more and more interviews with lawmakers and government officials!❤️
The take away from the remarks made by AG Ford about "voter boycott" is that the Democratic party has consistently failed to mount meaningful resistance to conservative Republican policies and agendas. This leaves real progressives and liberals in the position of wondering why they should support the party.
Never heard or seen this guy Aaron Ford, but I really like the way he speaks and his composure. Seems really level headed. Wish he were running in my state.

How do you defend wanting to "see someone hanged"?????
@@woodyb6626 I think you're replying to the wrong person. I said nothing in defense of anyone and only commented on Aaron Ford in a positive manner.
Re: the diet story
All three are true at the same time
1.) don’t shame people for their weight
2.) America’s obesity problem is real
3.) Doctors can and may try to push your health concerns as solely being caused by your weight, but if they recommend you to lose some weight because it _is_ causing you health issues, actually listen instead of being offended. .
Edit: to clarify the last point, if doctors are unwilling to listen to your pain and your concerns, blaming it all on your weight without further investigation, that is terrible. I’ve known people who trudged through that hell and it’s very invalidating and HARMFUL to not be heard by a medical professional. If your weight actually is a concern, hopefully said doctor will help you formulate a plan on how to hit your goals. But if a doctor is telling you to lose weight bc it IS making you sick or worse could shave off years of your life, please do not say the doctor is fatphobic. 🤦🏾♀️
With doctors is important to find one that actually cares about your health, i like my gp, well she tried to get me on welbutrion and I didn’t like that because is has a history in my family, but she always looks out for my health and comfort first. Like I told her I don’t like the phlebotomist at her location so she sent me to a different one, she found medications for my mental health issues that aren’t linked to weight gain because she knows I’m trying to lose weight as well as one that boosts energy so I have the drive to work out. She herself is fat like me and she knows how hard it can be to have a doctor talk down to her, she has thyroid issues and always makes a point to get mine checked when I get my blood work done Which is something my previous gp didn’t do at all.
Well said! I don't know why it is so fucking hard for people on both sides of this discussion to have balanced takes such as yours. Keep it up!
I would also add on
4) it can be both a personal issue (that is not your business) and a societal failure to provide access to regulated, affordable, and healthy food
As a fat person, being over weight is the cause for a shyte ton of health problems. Being overweight is a sign of not being healthy...
I had a coworker who needed knee replacements for both knees, but no doctor would do the surgery because she was well over 250lbs. When your own knees won't hold up under your weight, how would man made materials standup any better? Lose the weight.
My problem with doctors is how they rely so heavily on the BMI. As a short and muscular woman, I have been considered overweight on the BMI for years. The only way I got into the ‘healthy’ range was when I had an eating disorder. After getting my ED in check, it was back to the same issue with doctors. I once had my doctor looking at my papers - not at me - and say I was a bit overweight. It wasn’t until she looked up at me that she stopped and looked a little confused. It’s incredibly frustrating (and triggering for my ED) when I’m healthy in every other sense but this stupid outdated chart is sometimes the only thing doctors go by and the only way I was considered ‘healthy’ was when I was starving myself. So yeah, that’s why some folks have issues with doctors when it comes to that.
anyone else get comfort out of just hearing Phil's voice while explaining something you're anxious about because of lack of info
I've personally struggled with weight issues for most of my life, and, honestly, it's not easy to eat healthy and be poor in this country (the US). Add mental illness on top of that, which is a system that also sucks, and it's like fighting an uphill battle.
I know someone very obese who has mental health issues he copes with by eating. Even if he was willing and able to seek mental health care, I doubt he could find good care. His life is so limited by his weight and mental health and no one sees a way to help him.
His wife, kids, and friends are watching him slowly kill himself. It’s so sad. He’s a good guy, a father, a veteran, a person who trains EMTs and life guards. Yet all strangers would see is someone morbidly obese and worthless.
It's designed that way. They want us to kill ourselves. It's a passive form of eugenics.
Im 5' 10 and weighed close to 290 in my late teens early twenties. Got my ass together and am now 190 with a lot of muscle. Took years and a lot of steady changes to undo a life of bad eating habits. The biggest was straight up misinformation from food labels and advertisement. Moat of what is billed as healthy is far from it and most of what actually is healthy cost way more. Best thing to do is just eat real food you make. Once you get it down you can even save a lot of money tbh. But its never going to be as easy or cheap as say a cup of noodles and a soda.

I'm worried that crappy food is so deeply embedded in our culture that'll never go away. If you try to do anything to even encourage people away from, they'll start shouting "mah freedom!" Just like at the anti mask crowd.
And remember how ppl freaked tf out when Michelle Obama just tried to have ppl eat healthy?
Always love it when you get an interview in the mix.
AG Aaron Ford is a king. This man is thoughtful, understanding, well- educated, articulate and an excellent Attorney General. He is a man of great integrity. Americans would be luck to have him in office for another 4 years. He’d certainly have my vote. Good man.
A factor that gets left out of the nutrition/food/diet discussion is that fresh produce and more nutrient dense foods take TIME and EFFORT to prepare. I have ADHD and part of that is I literally forget about food I have in the fridge. My crisper drawer is where fresh produce goes to die. It's easy to say eat more fresh produce, it's harder to follow through. I've been able to adapt with meal services but it's not cheap. When you don't have money or time, fast and low quality can be the only option.
Any sort of medically necessary diet restrictions only make it worse. I was looking into pre-made vegetable juice as a way to increase my intake and I discovered that all of them use apples or pineapple. Apples are a huge IBS trigger for me and I'm allergic to pineapple. Tomato based juice triggers my geographic tongue and acid reflux. Eating is HARD. I'm looking into how to make my own but I can't find my blender because ADHD memory wipe. I just want people to acknowledge that it's not always easy or simple to eat more nutritiously.
God, same. I fucking hate it. I straight up forget food is in the fridge. So many strawberries, wasted. And I adore strawberries, but if someone doesn't remind me at a time that I want to eat, I just forget them entirely.
I'm disabled and it's a great day if I eat real food for one meal, or if I eat two meals of any kind. Nutrition can be a luxury.
Bruh what a cop out. I have severe ADHD and that doesn’t stop me from making food to fuel my body. It’s quite simple really
@@auqustfire Have you considered putting a whiteboard on the fridge and writing own what's in there that you don't want to forget? Things like sour cream and fruit that might be forgotten. I need to do it with my freezer one of these days...
Meal prep in bulk and keeping it either fresh or freezing it should make meals sooooooooo much easier. Buy what you need, prep what you've bought, eat what you have until it's time to repeat the process.
The situation in Nevada is a microcosm of the insanity that is happening all over the country. This country is a powder keg.
Loved hearing for the Nevada Attorney General. He seems to really love his job and working for the people in his community.
I would really recommend the episode "Is being fat bad for you?" from the Maintenance Phase podcast. They do a deep dive on those studies and turns out the common stats on "fatness" are about as useful as the information that your mortality is 10% higher if you have a master's degree than if you have a PhD
Also, I strongly recommend looking into fatphobia in the medical world, it's a really well documented and incredibly harmful phenomenon. doctors are, unfortunately, not exempt from the various biases in our society.
Maintenance phase is honestly life changing
Obesity is genuinely bad for your health, there isn’t a “bias.” I have no idea what you’re talking about as a biologist with a non bias purely from study , trials, first hand experience observing various functions and states of the body in lab settings etc…
To be honest I can’t imagine anyone outside of the USA or maybe UK saying this.
Thank you for mentioning Matinence Phase! Realizing the systemic problem of fat phobia (how it’s actually linked to racism) and how the fitness industry Ian there to make you think it’s meant to make you cycle (which is more closely linked to heart disease than just weight) was life changing on my health journey. Now I’m seeing a dietician for my PCOS, eating disorder, and focusing on overall health. Matinence Phase was a big, big learning tool in figuring out the help I needed because people screaming “calories in calories out” was causing me to get really, really sick.
@@NickolaiPetrovitch I think the bias they are talking about is how often peoples health worries are dismissed as "just lose weight and you'll be fine" without any real investigation into the cause of their problems, then several years later when the issue has become much worse or they are simply fed up with being ignored, doctors are finally forced to investigate closer they find out it is actually it's own issue and they could have been treating them for it all along. I know multiple people this has happened to, one of the common issues this happens with is PCOS
@@emmao6578 that makes sense !! That’s definitely a thing . Thank you for clarifying. :)
Lmao let insurance pay for healthy foods.
You know how insurance companies could help people get healthy food?
Cut their ridiculous rates so that people can actually afford food. Or, even better, stop trying to stop public healthcare and single payer, which will save the country as a whole billions, if not trillions of dollars per year.
The US has so many systemic problems, but the entire country seems to be allergic to the idea of a systemic fix, instead trying to put bandaids over every single gushing wound in the country.
This is the America we live in today??? Someone can talk about lynching and still be a viable candidate for public office?? What in the living hell is happening in America?????.??
Exactly! It's like we're living in bazzaro world.
Since when does this shit fly? I thought we had higher standards
Alot of things. Thr current system is coming apart at the seems and once it happens, we will have a much more cruel country.
Yeah that's kind of only with Republicans though. A Lefty says anything wrong and the Left purity checks the fuck out of them. The Right says something wrong (like lynching someone for fuck sake) and they clap and say "it's just a joke".
They never hold their people to account and the Left holds theirs way to tightly. It's very annoying, but I'd rather be with the speech police telling politicians it's wrong to make fun of the opponents hair style or whatever dumb garbage they'll get upset over, than the one that backs someone who openly wants their opponent to hang.
@@RavenHaili yes. Bizarro world that’s exactly what we’re in.

Just throwing it out there as a Brit, we're actually not that reliant on Russian gas, that's more of a central europe problem, the Nord Stream line goes to Germany, and we're not even in the EU anymore.
Not saying we're in a good place, because shit is very going badly here atm, but that's not a big part of it
It is tho because others will be trying to get the supply that we buy and push up prices. Supply and demand you know

I live in NV and didn't realize what was going on in my own state. Thanks for going in to that.
Lots of Europeans are seeing their energy bills rise by 300-400%. A *LOT* of people will not be able to afford heating their house this winter, I sincerely think people are underestimating the problems that will be caused by this energy 'crisis'. And it's not just people and their houses, bakers are seeing 10 fold increases in energy and will no longer be able to afford keeping their business open.
I just want to add that medical fatphobia is a very real issue. For years I was just fat, lazy, and ate too much and it led to an autoimmune disease going undiagnosed and untreated for years. That autoimmune disease is the cause of my weight issues. This happened again later on when I had a multitude of health issues that turned out to be ME/CFS. But because all my symptoms were blamed on my weight, I was told to just exercise more, the illness progressed to a point where I'm now on disability and will never get better.
This. The fatphobic part is when doctors say to eat more veggies when you do like there couldn't be any other underlying condition.
I’m sorry our medical system allowed this to happen and failed u. It’s disgusting
It's so frustrating how many doctors ignore your individual symptoms/concerns and claim losing weight will solve everything. I told a doctor that I had been struggling with anxiety and depression since I was 18 (over a decade at the time I saw the doctor) and said I wanted to try going on medication to help with my anxiety. He prescribed phentermine (appetite suppressant) because he said I needed to lose weight. I didn't lose a pound over the next few months that I was on it. I finally found a different doctor who listened to me and now my anxiety doesn't feel crippling everyday.
Yeah i had that issue as well.
like yeah im medically overweight! I need to lose 10-20lbs to the in the proper healthy weight, ill admit that and yeah i gotta work on it.
But you cant look at me and refuse to look into why I had intercranial pressure issues and was going blind just because thats something medically overweight and obese people can get, one of the other doctors i saw said its usually from severe weight loss and gain which I hadn't had issues with? And even if it was its not something you should just blame the patient for? Maybe work with your patients to get them eating better or living better?
It got better but not because I lost weight, i still dont know what caused it or why its gotten better.
personally I've been wearing really shape wear friendly clothes or dresses that give me a more hourglass look and they've stopped asking about my weight 🙄 sadly looks definitely made it easier to get health care
This, 20 years of 'lose weight and everything will be fine' until someone actually buckled down and looked behind the weight and went oh fuck, your hormones won't let you
LOVED THAT INTERVEIW! Thank yoU!!!!
I know it's Saskatchewan, the literal middle of nowhere, but please cover the massacre that happened here over the weekend. My heart goes out to those whose lives were ended and impacted by this tragedy.
making food stamps count double for fresh produce sounds awesome, though it might be a bit difficult to implement
That’s what I was thinking. My local farmers market has their own money coupons that you can use. So I imagine you go to the front to exchange those SNAP benefits for double coupons
@@FrankYammy that's what my farmer's market in South Texas does. You got to the main tent & they scan your card & give you market coupons worth double than what was scanned.
@@FrankYammy the state just needs the people who get double value for turning in the used coupons to be extra trustworthy, because if it's just paper with no direct registration system linking the coupons to the sale, the system might allow for fraud. or do used food stamps generally need to be turned in to the state with associated sales records, like that sellers mark every sale paid for with food stamps? but that might be very complicated if you can pay partially with food stamps and partially with money, which I think is possible, fight? I'm not american - here in germany, people on government support just get their rent and health insurance paid and a set monthly sum of money that's supposed to be enough for food and everything else.
Farmer's market produce, at least around me, is about 4x+ the price of grocery store produce. Getting double to shop at the farmer's market works out to being "only" double the price at a store. Yay?
@@jb888888888 that is the opposite issue here. It's pretty compatible in price. Plus lots of people still go across the border to buy groceries or buy groceries in local shops that import from across the border.
I love the idea of making the food stamps worth double when used on produce. It's not really enough to just give enough money for families to be able to buy healthy food. If you don't have a lot of money that head of broccoli that cost 5 dollars is just hard to justify but you might buy for half price.
where is broccoli $5? I get a crown of broccoli for around 89 cents. sure if you buy the "organic" vegetables it can get that high but there's other options.
Buy frozen. 2lbs of broccoli florets is under $3 where I live if you buy frozen.
Abolish food stamps
@@joshdenton1195 so we're gonna start giving away food now? or are we to let poor people die?
@@joshdenton1195 How about just restricting food stamps so you don't have individuals spending $40 on their ebt card buying junk food at a gas station. That shit should not be allowed. Should only be for fresh produce and healthy foods.
It's crazy to me that a person that is nominated for office literally calls for the lynching of their opponent and is still able to run for office. How the hell is that not basis for getting disqualified?!
The issue isn't him telling her to take in less calories, it's that when you go to a doctor for something and they relate it to your weight period, even when asked not to they still give advice you didn't ask for and you end up with serious problems. For years i was over weight even though i was an active kid who didn't eat anything processed because i was lucky enough to have some money in the home. Doctors never believed me and would tell me to lose weight, it took me nearly dying from a burst ovarian cyst for them to finally look into my complaints and find i had PCOS and after getting endo help lost weight.
I used to be 1 BMI point overweight and after 8 years of being prescribed acid reflux medication and told to diet and exercise, I ended up in an ER and diagnosed with Cyclic Vomiting Syndrome. Since I have found out I have a hernia in my diaphragm and a narrowing esophagus. 8 years of things getting worse before I can be properly treated.
YEP! Had a doc refuse to look into anything for my friend. Couldn’t lose weight because of PCOS which means she never got tested for PCOS until, like you said, she ended up in the ER. Another had a gallbladder ready to burst the doc insisted was weight induced acid reflux. There’s ‘hey your weight isn’t helping your health’ and there’s ‘I refuse to look into whether or not you’re about to die because your fat’
The part that these stories leave out is that obesity is also linked to trauma and poverty - both of which the US experiences at higher levels than other countries which have stronger social safety nets in place. Raising minimum wage would reduce obesity rates for instance. We need to stop fully blaming people suffering from obesity that it’s their own fault and start realizing it’s a government problem too.
As a Nevadan this info is really appreciated. Thank you
See when they exaggerate by saying things like not being able to say the word gay in Florida that's where they lose me completely. That is absolutely not what that law was trying to stop or prevent or whatever. I can't trust what either side says anymore.
Part of the problem with the treatment of fat patients by doctors is they tend to focus a bit too much on the weight. If a person has a cut from a machete, they need the cut treated before the 30 min on their weight. People tend to talk to folks about their weight like they have no idea they are fat.

THIS!!! Doctors really are fatphobic because they often will not take legitimate health concerns seriously until the patient "loses some weight"
Do you have any evidence for that BS or just people being insecure their doctor talked about their weight?
@@jesusbarrera6916 there's evidence all around if you look for it. But no one has to waste any time proving it to you when they know it for themselves. Seriously get out from under your bridge and go look for yourself.
@@t.l. I think he was asking for actual sources. Like a research paper or a study.
As a disabled human... I can't afford healthy foods.
non-60fps video feels like I'm looking at a black and white television.
Sometimes I can feel so overwhelmed by far-right republicans that I have to actively remind myself not all politicians are like that. AOC, Katie Porter, and Aaron Ford are politicians who give me hope that sometimes people do genuinely go into this field to help people.
Both far right and far left will never help this country . AOC is on the extreme
Preach! The media exacerbates this issue as well; they only give platform and airtime to the crazies for views.
@@sv4653 I was literally about to comment the same thing. 😂
AOC is not a good example of the left.
Fat shaming can really fuck you up.
From the time I was 10, my mom constantly fat shamed me. She never shied away from telling me how I looked and always trying new diets on me. Hell, she signed me up for Weight Watchers without my consent and made me go vegan. I managed to get down to 150 lbs. (I'm 5'8"), but I had to work out 3 hours a day and eat less than 600 calories. I was miserable and suicidal.
Finally, 10 years ago, I cut all ties from my mom and did things my way. I eat healthy and exercise 3-5 hours a week. I may be 250 lbs., but I'm happy. I don't feel guilty if I want to eat pancakes for breakfast or if I want to try that new Ben & Jerry's ice cream every one is raving about. There are enough problems in the world and none of us are going to make it out alive in the end, so enjoy it.
As a fellow struggler with weight, I say well-done. Being okay in the body you have is the toughest part of the battle, and you made an incredibly difficult decision to get there. Keep on living on your terms.
Wait....she fat shamed you, but she fed you?....even if someone else fed you, its exclusively her responsibility as a parent to bear that shame. So, I guess she's stupid
Dude, my parents signed me up for weight watchers as a kid, too. I’m glad you made it past that trauma, keep fighting the good fight
I'm glad you found a path for yourself!
Reminds me of the Jennette McCurdy's story... I'm so sorry you went through that, Greg, I hope you're ok now
Love the increase in interviews as of late. Consistently increasing the quality of journalism
Not really he letting him lie on air I already found a few like the dont say gay bill and saying about voter fraud when someone traveled there and there was fraud. He isn't even pushing him on these points.
I can't believe she literally said she wants to see him not being alive and in that specific way and then literally tried to defend it. Like.... Sugar, there is no defense for that...
Ikr! It's so violent and blatantly racist!
The entire food industry needs to be regulated imo
It is... FDA
@@joshdenton1195 they’re useless organization
@@joshdenton1195 Have you seen the type of shit Americans allow to be put into their food and drinks? Measure out how much 30 grams of sugar is. Realize that is a normal amount for your average beverage at a convenience store. It may be regulated for safety but I'll tack on that it should be regulated for health. One way or another, the rest of society is subsidizing these horrifying diets
@@zachelope2514 Food IS regulated though. Fortified foods are a prime example of over government regulation that harm more people than it helps
@@gChance6 How are fortified foods harming people? I've never heard of that before.
I definitely live in a place where it’s hard to find affordable, healthy food and it shouldn’t be the case. Most ppl don’t think of Pennsylvania as a place that would have a problem like that, but we do. Feeding my family of 4 with healthy food that fits our budget is practically impossible right now.
It probably doesn't help that Pennsylvania is one of the top snack food producers in the country, so it's probably extra cheap here because of the lack of transportation.
Canned beans and lentils aren't available where you are?!?!?
Those are cheap, nutritious, and long lasting. If 50cent to dollar cans of food don't fit your budget I wonder what will. It sure makes one wonder.
@@littlebigcommentaries9833 bro the problem included canned goods. Sure, it is slightly better than junk food, but they are high in sodium and lose a ton of their nutritional value.
@@littlebigcommentaries9833 fine, those cans can be affordable. What about having a kitchen with appliances to cook? Or even be able to afford time to plan and cook meals when you are working two or three jobs? There's layers to this shit lol. Not everyone is lazy, if it was that, we wouldn't have such a high rate of obesity.
@@clockworktime7195 the problem is that theres a lot of people who do have all that and still choose to have that lifestyle. Which is basically what Phil is addressing, that is a US problem and a big one. I also don't think the affordability is the biggest issue in cities,more the lack of. I live in more in the country side and whenever I go to NY to visit family, I notice how hard it is to find fresh decent food, it ridiculous.
I appreciate Nevada's AG for not giving these crazy Republicans a platform to speak.
YES! PLEASE KEEP DOING THESE CANIDATE INTERVIEWS. Having sharable bits of info leading up to the election is going to be so important.
The thing about weight stigma with doctors is that, too often, fat people go to the doctor for a health issue and that issue is immediately met with "well, lose weight" instead of the actual root/cause of the health issue being addressed. Yes, I think there is merit in practicing gentle nutrition and making sure your body is nourished. But if I go to the doctor, I expect a conversation that goes beyond my weight. Everyone deserves that.
I'm terrified for anyone that has an online career. Such a volatile field with ever-changing rules. Good luck to you all.
Your damn right man. But honestly our world was always changing
Wdym by online career?
