It’s sad that she says she’s “so tired” so many times. You’re tired because you’re under fueling your body. Even very intense workouts shouldn’t leave you feeling completely drained. I workout 6-7x/wk and 1-3x a day and I have tons of energy to do yard work, make nutritious meals, etc. I did not feel this way when I was in a chronic calorie deficit however.
I was wondering if it was just me thinking she looks and sounds exhausted during the whole video. I honestly don't know how anyone following her channel would feel compelled to adopt her lifestyle when she portrays zero...enthusiasm. I'm not familiar with her content, so maybe she was having an "off-day," but even so, why make a video if you're not in it to win it?
@@heyitsdersshe is being paid by the food industry ... but may be using Reverse psychology? My son's oncologist sent us to a dietician for consult and she was morbidly obese and going bald. Did we listen to her advice to eat anything we wanted just to get calories? That was the start of our nutrician journey. Plain wholesome food. Intermittant fasting. No snacks. Iodine, C sun and positive attitude. 1997. Hes still kicking
@@olivej696 I work full time as a personal trainer and I’m a semi-pro athlete. When I say 1-3x a day that includes things like yoga, cross training, and prehab exercises - it’s not all strength training and running. The key is that most people are simultaneously eating too little and working out at too high of an intensity too often. For aerobic workouts you should do 80% at a easy effort and only 20% at a hard effort. And for strength training you have to be balancing progressive overload hard sessions with corrective exercise, prehab and active recovery like yoga and mobility work. You also have to ease into it. Most people start doing way too much and don’t give their bodies enough time to adapt to the lifestyle and make the physiological changes required to handle the volume they’re asking their bodies to handle. Also, sleep!! Athletes require 8-10 hours of sleep (I recommend naps). Lastly, if you have the resources required, I’d recommend getting a blood panel, particularly ferritin, iron, and vitamin D levels. If you’re deficient in these areas you’ll battle chronic fatigue no matter how good you are about the other areas. I’d also like to emphasize that this is a lifestyle that isn’t realistic for people with other passions and responsibilities (like if you have children).
@@heyitsders Daisy always talks in a low-ish voice. She also said that "I'm tired" is more of a catchphrase, she's just got this habit becs her friend says it all the time (same with me, my best friend says "oh my god" a lot and I've developed this as well)- Daisy said this in an IG QnA
It's sad that people demonize rice and bread for carbs but will drink like 3 pressed juices a day and not realize that it's also carbs. It's just such an interesting relationship with food.
@@maddyG7414yes true….you just gotta be careful with brown rice because it can cause inflammation, it’s basically white rice with the husk still on it so it makes it hard to digest for some people. I have noticed it gives me gas & hurts my tummy a bit. Yes to Carbs!!!
"Studies have been done.I mean, not like studies but kind of like studies" (Daisy) How can anybody take influencers seriously when it comes to health when they can't even site their sources 😂
@@Blackandwhitecat-u9v she may be an influencer but she is also a nutritionist and it's her job.How many of these influencers are just self appointed health gurus? They should really stick to "motivational speaking" and "life coaching"lol
Abbey, you literally saved me from 5 years of constant shifting between anorexia and bulimia, I am so glad I discovered you around July 2021 on tiktok, I am so grateful that I escaped that hellish cycle, I am so much more educated about my body now, I listen to my body and to my needs as a person, I use your hunger crushing combo all the time haha ^^, but really thank you so so much ^^ 🙏🏼
It's always the people who have the wrong information who spread it the most. All of that carb talk made me think about an old coworker who was shaming me for eating "carbs" and proceeded to eat an entire bag of baby carrots in front of me.. WHILE explaining the science behind "carbs making you fat" :) can everyone just mind their business one in awhile haha
Yeah everyone I know still demonizes potatoes, fries, etc. I lost a lot of weight eating plenty of carbs (62 lbs) Just watched my portions Love my carbs
@@tracy_cakkes that's awesome you get to enjoy your carbs and reach your goal weight. I think everything needs to be in moderation for you to enjoy life & food, no use trying to be super healthy & restrictive if you are miserable from not getting to eat intuitively! I think more people nowadays have trouble with weight and obesity since we can be quite sedentary, with lockdown forcing us to avoid the gym and outdoors, delivery services, not many parks or walkable cities & online hobbies. It's tough paying for fruits and veggies that can quickly go to waste & companies hide a lot from you, adding extra sugar, preservatives. I recently heard air fryers were releasing some harmful chemicals as well. It's almost like you can't win. Sorry for the long rant though! Hope you have a nice day.
Thank you!!! The carb fear propaganda is getting out of hand!! One must simply look at the science to understand how amazing and wonderful whole foods carbs are for you and your health!!
@@brittanys505 yes 100% I love walking. My job is in a school so I walk a lot. I also have a treadmill. And yes, how can u keep the weight off forever if ur miserable? At that point I wouldn’t even care anymore lol I also don’t use food delivery or eat fast food. I make everything at home. Hope u have a great day as well :)
Just FYI banana cream puff flavor has been voluntarily recalled by Built in USA due to salmonella/listeria issues. I work in the food industry and getting FDA news daily. You may want to throw it out or check lot# to see if it been recalled
Is there any page, like IG or anywhere that they post this things? I think is good to follow them. I had to return a sunscreen once, luckily I found the news bc the retailer didn't inform us.
Quite a big concern how alot of things are getting recalled. I’m an Environmental Health Practitioner, RSA., and this gives us chest pains hoping there won’t be food poisoning reports…
Daisy is my least favourite type of fitness influencer. Completely aesthetic-based (“what I eat to build my booty”), absolutely no education regarding the function and mechanics of movement, toxic attitudes toward food and the need to justify what you’re eating because you’re going to “burn it off” or “use it for my workout.” Working out and fitness is not just about having a big booty. Fitness and nutrition is about so much more than how it makes you look.
@@mima9277 I mean, she's putting it out there for free so it's helpful ya know? My body is a lot like hers so her exercises help me a lot. Some days I eat less than her, sometimes I eat more- it just depends. She never said she's a nutritionist and she isn't forcing anyone to follow what she does. She's been super helpful to me and there are a lot of reviews on YT about girlies trying her workouts; they usually post positive results along with evidence. Just like I probably wouldn't take exercise advice from Abbey, I probably won't take nutrition advice from Daisy. No one's forcing us.
Oh in my personal experience, I tried doing what Daisy is doing and ended up with an ED a couple of years ago. I mean since then I've gotten so much better, I'm on a mediterranean diet right now and I'm loving it. I'm able to work out and chase my kids around. It's amazing to feel myself again
@@MelissaCapriotti it's my all time favorite and it works well with my PCOS/endometrosis and diverticulitis. It's not restrictive at all and I feel genuinely better since switching to it. So many fun meal ideas I've come across too!
I just eat what I want. Coffee for breakfast. Some leftover Mexican food for lunch and half a donut. Dinner was a taco salad and a small cupcake and juice. Sure, I could lose 5 lbs, but life is too short for this nonsense.
I'm a daycare teacher and I pack myself high-protein, high-carb lunches just to keep up with the little ones! I am not at all surprised that Daisy is so tired.
"We didn't hear that kind of shade about the 'health-washed' vegan-gluten-free-and-organic carbs from the bougie LA grocer" was the line that got me! Health-washed is such a good term. LOL
Omg when she talked about the alkaline water 😂 I wonder if she actually knows what the words mean that come out of her mouth. I guess we've been doing it all wrong drinking "normal" water for thousands of years.
After studying microbiology, chemistry, and physiology... people who preach for alkaline water and refuse to listen to proper science are so laughable. To each their own I suppose
This goes to show you some of these fitness influencers don’t know a lot. It’s like regurgitation of the same restrictions. Just cause they manage to look a certain way doesn’t mean it’s done healthy or is sustainable. I don’t know/follow her, but she seems so dull, like when someone is on a major calorie deficit. I love your commentary on these videos.
^^ this. Tons of misinformation about carbs, alkaline water, organic, blah blah blah. And she does seem so tired/dull in all these clips. I hope this young woman has a more positive and/or evidence based health awakening soon
She's dull not just from calorie restriction, also from focusing on what she eats, counting calories and having to justify it to herself and her audience.
It's honestly so crazy to me how much of a hold the low carb mentality has on society. I'm currently getting my masters in nutrition and it blows my mind how often people are telling me they're not eating carbs because "it makes me fat". On top of that, marketing terms like "superfood" are thrown around so much now that I'm seeing people who believe they can't be healthy because they can't eat (or afford!!) all the "superfoods" every day
The thing is that carbs make some people "fatter" . No i dont mean they gain 15 pounds or anything like that. For example if you are a skinny fat person, cutting carbs or at least doing lower carbs while training will help you lose belly fat faster. And no its not bullshit. I myself have done it and its true. So stop this bullshit with carbs are great. Yes they are. But not for everyone. And for most people carbs at like 300g a day a really not needed if your sitinh in your chair doing nothing lol.
@@kristianstuller2321 You’re right, eating a bunch of carbs every day isn’t great for everyone. Sorry - I’m not trying to demonize that. In my experience, I’ve just seen a lot of people who don’t function well without enough carbs. I totally agree some people definitely do better without/lower carb. I guess I was just trying to say they’re not always the enemy
no they’re not. i’m keto right no because i have to lose weight fast but i miss eating carbs haha. like oatmeal and fruit, the occasional pizza or tacos, rice and beans(😭)
This was honestly pretty upsetting to watch. Daisy’s channel was one of my main inspirations to start purging because I wanted to look like her so badly. As an adult women, I now see how twisted and wrong her relationship with her food and body is. If it weren’t for Abby’s commentary I probably would’ve just spiraled back to purging. It’s really important to get this out there, especially to young women.
Thank you for sharing, daisy should be more mindful of her relationship with her body and food, if not for herself then at least for those who are inspired by her to avoid spreading and encouraging these restrictive habits
As someone who has struggled with getting good quality sleep all her life, I've definitely noticed that having carbs before bed has helped with my sleep. I have a small sandwich or some oats just before bed almost every night now.
Same. I love oatmeal before bed. I’ve read a lot of articles saying “don’t eat before bed because it’s bad” but eating before bed prevents me from waking up in the middle of the night hungry so I ignore it and continue doing what works for me. Every body is different!!
I have one of those chronic acid reflux syndromes so I make sure to eat before sleeping some good biscuits or toast with marmalade . It stops me from waking up on a completely empty stomach (otherwise I have this strange feeling of hollowness among with the nausea from my acid problems). Although there might be some cultural and psychological elements to it, bc growing up in my country, toast is the thing that you were fed if you had a sick stomach (thought to be acting like a sponge and non irritating???? Maybe idk).
Before bed I often eat a carb like a banana, whole grain bread, Greek yogourt oat bowl. I hate it when people say it’s bad to eat before bed (which my parents commented on all my life) because otherwise I wake up really hungry.
She reminds me of me when I was so scared of carbs, she’s demonitizing carbs so much it’s dangerous to post that kinda shit on the internet. Since I’ve been eating more carbs I actually started meeting my physique goals and feel so much better about myself
I love the whole idea about alkaline water and adjusting your pH. It’s very funny since I learned so much about having your pH changes and the interventions that are needed in order to get back to your body’s happy place in nursing school. Plus, if you have chronic UTI or urinary calculi, you are advised to drink acidic fruit just juice (prune, blueberry, cranberry, etc) to help make your urine more acidic since as you said, being acidic is the favorable pH.
How have I just found you!! I did a nutritional science masters, and I literally love how helpful you are and wish I found you when I was writing my research papers 😂 the way you form sentences are so scientific, and I love the research backed up behind everything you say !! 💘
I was actually trying to think of what I wanted to eat for a quickish late night dinner (I had rehearsal earlier tonight). I decided on savory/spicey breakfast-at-dinner omlette with liquid egg whites (have to really watch my cholesterol), leftover chili spiced couscous, and some sauteed bell pepper and mushrooms, served with some spicey leftover salsa, and a spoonful of sour cream. For a dessert, I decided to have some "pine" berries (strawberries that have a bit of a pineapple flavor to them). However, I have to admit, I was super tempted to just go out and get a sandwhich from Subway....but trying to not spend as much money, and use what I have here at home.
Her meals looked pretty good but I just hated the carb shaming comments. Can we just eat ur rice without thinking it's like a devils food? Please and thank you.
speaking from my own experience with restricting food and having an eating disorder - she seems and looks exhausted from under-eating; anyone else agree on that? so sad to see such a young and hard-working girl feeling like she doesn't "deserve" to eat foods in moderate amounts, as I really would not like to see anyone else suffering from an ed like myself:((
as someone who struggles with restriction and disordered eating patterns, i think it does make sense. she makes her meals look "full" and "healthy" so its easy to get fooled into thinking she is eating enough. shes not SEVERLY malnourished (yet), but she does seem a bit worn down and drained. she clearly undereats, especially considering the amount of workouts she does daily. her diet has enough vitamins and important macros to keep her somewhat healthy (or at least relatively healthy), but theres a lack of energy. possibly from avoiding carbs so much? lifting is heavy exercise and most people who lift eat more to grow their muscles. if she keeps it up, she might start to loose the muscle (has happened to me lol)
@@evie55555 yeah, she even seems to have the "brain fog" a bit! she speaks very slowly and kinda like she cant focus, which i usually experience when i eat especially low amounts or workout a lot. im not sure if that can be the case, but it seems like it
Another reason to be aware of the high ph not being helpful for everyone, I was drinking a higher ph water and got a raw 🙀! No uti but red and irritated. Took like 3 weeks/1 month to have the issue and equally as long to recover.
Thank you, Abbey, for another great video! Would love to see a video (or two!) in the future about your approach and techniques for raising kids with healthy eating habits and talking about the diet-fearmongering many influencers engage in today.
Hi Abbey! I just wanted to leave a comment to say thank you for your videos, they were such a good distraction for me these past few weeks. I am in the hospital right now for the second time in 2 months because my vitals were dangerously low due to what I was previously diagnosed, anorexia. Your videos are super entertaining and a great distraction.💓
Abbey: “I’m not into the message that carbs are ‘not that bad’ (…) food doesn’t need to be deserved even if you have been laying bed watching my videos al day” Me: *literally watching her video in bed while I eat a bowl of tortellini pasta* 👀😁
I love how well-spoken you are! I learn a lot from you! Can you possibly do a video on popular "healthy" snacks, such as SmartSweets, protein bars/protein powder, Lily's chocolate, vegan chicken strips etc
My family has been doing an adult only Easter Egg hunt for 30 years. There's money involved. People have had to go to the ER for stitches. It's a whole thing and I LOVE it.
@@xkristixx haha. So my grandma hides money in about a quarter of the Easter eggs in various amounts (now it’s just values on a piece of paper due to losing money). There’s 3 “golden” eggs with 20 dollars. The rules are find eggs and that’s about it. We’ve been known to tackle each other and push and shove. There is a big competition for most eggs found, most money and best money to egg ratio. Stitches have happened because of poorly placed eggs near things that could slice you and when two people go for the egg one person is bound to get hurt. Eggs are also very strategically hidden sometimes holes have been dug. Haha
LOL for a split second, my brain confused "churro" with "chorizo" for the Build Bar intro, and I was suuuuuper put-off by the idea of a spicy sausage breakfast bar. XD
Abbey, I would love to see a video on alcohol consumption and body composition/weight loss goals. I’m not a heavy drinker by any means, but I love my wine and feel hella guilty about it because of its lack of nutritive content to justify it.
I quit alcohol almost 3 years ago, Aug. 4, and it is the best thing I ever did for my health. I was beginning to get really inflamed and bloated and puffy after even a few drinks. Not to mention the bad decisions I made regarding driving and food when I had been drinking. I am 5'10, 128 lb , 44 years old, and it is really easy to maintain without dieting and without overly stressful exercise. I highly recommend!
At this point anytime I see a food label making a claim as a “superfood” I’m immediately turned off. It’s just a marketing tool to make the consumer feel better and also uses it as an excuse to charge more for an otherwise basic product. Also whatever benefit there is in that creamer, I highly doubt a single serving of creamer is enough to have a significant impact. I don’t under how any fitness person can speak about carbs like an afterthought. It’s literally what you need to fuel your body, especially for your workouts.
Loved loved loved the excellent and intelligent commentary in this video! You never fail to make me feel more informed about nutrition and our basic human needs in every video.
I don't know about anyone else, but oats before (or I've tried to eat them during long runs before as well) get my tummy going in a super not ideal way! Where some people say that toaster waffles have no place in your diet, I say that toaster waffles with peanut butter and banana are my FAV pre-run snack. Side note: Abbey, I love how you continuously talk about fueling our bodies in ways that work for us and support our specific dietary needs. I ran cross country in high school and remember almost getting a "prescription" from a coach about what foods I needed to include and exclude in order to get faster. I thank God that my mother (who is a nurse) blatantly disregarded my coach's wishes and focused on balanced meals with hunger crushing combos!
I love lion’s mane mushroom, glad to hear there’s research showing it is beneficial. I usually buy it dried from the asian supermarket and throw it into dishes with a liquidy sauce. It’s like a sponge that absorbs all the flavours
bruh, when she was explaining why alkaline water is "good for your body" she didn't even know what she was saying, omg almost gave me a stroke listening to that part
I actually have tried the lairds creamer and really enjoyed it! Idk if it helped much but was yummy! I do have some mushroom powder tho that I’ll add when I really want the benefits
I love Laird’a matcha and mushroom creamer, I have had it almost every day for three years. It’s kinda spendy but it’s still better than getting a matcha at a coffee shop every day.
When I last bought water, I could only find alkaline water. I mean, our tap water probably qualifies, because our limestone filtered aquifer makes our water so hard I could smell it when I first moved here. But I was struck by the fact that I couldn't opt out of this trend when I needed to buy water.
I’m vegan, low thyroid and medication makes me lose weight so slow and sometimes I get down about if I should eat something because I haven’t exercised enough to “earn” it. It quickly becomes such a spiral and it’s hard to change that mind set! But watching your videos makes it easier to make healthier choices, with eating AND thinking
I am watching your videos not only for entertainment but for advice because I want to be healthier as well. But dang I could never live my life like her. Sometimes food is happiness and comfort and that's okay. I'm not trying to say eat terribly all the time, no fuel your body right but man.
With regards to alkaline water: in ruminants, excess ammonia (a very basic substance) from urea fed to them, cause a rumen alkalosis and causes a lot of rumen microbes to die, especially important gram negative bacteria. Urease (enzyme needed for urea to ammonia conversion) however stops at a pH at 9-ish... So you then have rumen stasis on top of the metabolic acidosis in blood vessels (NH3 in the blood as NH4+ that is an hydrogen donor). This indicates that the alkalinity of what is ingested, DOES have an effect
Seeing you eat Built bars kills me bc they all have dairy and I can’t eat them!(lactose intolerant and vegan). As their biggest fan, maybe you could ask them to work on a vegan version?
Literally the reason I have to skip the ads I get mad at all the fun flavor options! I’m also allergic to treenuts and peanuts so it’s super hard to find a vegan protein bar that’s good
@Felicitas the Nugo brand has a ton of great vegan options. A lot of the “dark” flavors are vegan and the “slim” line has several vegan ones to. I literally eat the crunchy peanut butter one every day.
The alkaline water part is so cringe 😂😂 the thing I don’t respect about daisy is she literally has no credibility (not a nutritionist or personal trainer) and has fitness apps selling for $97?!
Daisy doesn't have a clue what she's talking about. Ever. She got famous for the way that she looks and decided to capitalize on it without any real skills or education, and it shows. All she does is use diet culture to scam her vulnerable followers
I worked at a yoga studio where we had the thing that changes the water's pH to make it more alkaline. I ended up with horrible diarrhea at one point. I went back to regular filtered water and seltzer.
I'm sorry that happened to you! your stomach is acidic because it's one of your first defenses against bacteria, i really face palm at people who are obsessed with alkaline water. we need to trust our bodies homeostasis! lol
@@AngeliaMeow The funny thing is I was only drinking the water because that’s what was there for free. I didn’t really think it was going to do anything, including anything adverse like make me have diarrhea.🤷🏼♀️🤣
It’s so interesting about insulin sensitivity as I find it varies so much person to person, I inject insulin so am like hyper aware of mine, and find I’m more sensitive to it in the morning and in the evening, especially after I’ve worked out but often skip lunch because it’s so hard to balance the timing with the insulin dose and I often have to wait too long for it to kick in during a busy day. Be interested to learn more about it xx
for some reason anything but a full on keto breakfast fucks with my insulin all day o.O i am fine with carbs in the evening tho. but as soon as i eat any carbs w my breakfast i struggle with food cravungs all day long. despite eating the same as i always do
To your point, I also inject and I find I’m so insensitive in the morning, I typically need 50% more insulin in the morning that I do after I’ve been up for a few hours. It really just can’t be generalized.
Yeah it’s mad! My lunches have to be full of fibre and low carb to keep mine steady and I still have to inject more and wait up to an hour before eating, but at dinner I can inject less and eat a good amount of carbs. Bodies are weird hey!
For me it's funny how she would be a little guilty(?) or whatever because of the sourdough, but she casually eats processed food like bacon without any diet culture words 😭😂
Could you possibly do some sort of commentary on Laura Spath? She is a RUclipsr who eats a carnivore diet. She is SUPER sweet with a precious family, and I am so mesmerized by her story and way of eating. I just don’t quite understand the carnivore diet from a science perspective (which I know you’ve covered before surrounding Joe Rohan’s podcast), and I want to know more. Thanks; love you Abbey!
Suggestion - I'd love to hear your take on anti-nutrients. I hear about them all the time these days, and it sounds like it's an actual researched thing, but how much do we really need to pay attention to them?
lol i literally have just been lying in bed watching your videos all day cause my dad has covid, so i've been pretty much quarantined with him. thankfully, i do not have covid, but back when i did, that's when i discovered your channel. i've always wanted to become a certified nutritionist, but haven't studied it extensively, so i appreciate learning from your channel because it's the most effective way for me to learn new things. so thanks abbey - for making my laziness productive! on a different note, can you see if you review more "what I eat in a day" videos that are a bit more diverse than your average "influencer's" or celebrity's what i eat in a day videos? I know they are more common amongst influencers and such, and I know you've made reviews about more unique diets, but I want to see more! either way, thank you again for posting cause i enjoy your down to earth content anyway and always have a good laugh at your edits!
I don't eat much rice most of it because it makes me gain weight rapidly, but rice is a most in Ecuadorian cuisine so, I eat moderately, especially a rice and beans or chicken ❤❤ sorry the orthography.
I have been battling acid reflux that is clearly linked to stress. I have been taking alkaline meds whenever I feel acid going up my esophagus. Trying to lower my stress. Last thing before I set up a consult with a doctor would be taking meds that lower the production of acid in the stomach for a few weeks. That is when you need to reduce acid on your system, when it is out of whack. It seems to be getting better, probably because I have been focusing on the stress reduction, sleep and exercise.
I honestly think that breakfast is super healthy it has protein and tons of carbs sugars vitamins minerals potassium! All great things to get you going in the morning
I bought that laird's creamer once when it was marked down at the store & it's absolutely terrible. Thin, too sweet, weird flavors. Not to mention they're probably not harvesting their chaga mushrooms in the most sustainable way. Bizarre phenomenon that mushroom thing
I love Laird 😍 Its local to me and they're the coolest company, they do so much for families and some non profits in my area! I can't speak to the health claims/ingredients in it but it tastes good haha
Lmao the fact that she sounds so unsure herself about speaking about the alkaline water studies shows us that we shouldn't accept diet tips from daisy 😆 she has good workout videos though, and I hope she grows through the carb hate because she damn well deserves those carbs!!
hi! if possible would you do a video on low glycemic diets? I also want to know if it is actually a bad decisions to eat rice and potatoes in the same meal
Hey, just wondering why it would be a bad idea to eat both in the same meal? I mean it sounds a bit weird but if you like it, why not. Just add veggies and protein 😉
@@wa6184 I was writing a detailed answer as to why my mom said it was a bad idea, even when where I'm from its quite normal to eat stews with potatoes accompanied with rice or other things like that and I realised that maybe it's just diet culture and there's nothing wrong with it if it's not everything in eating for a meal. So thank you :))
Could you do a video on glucose goddess? I have insulin resistance and have been avoiding carbs almost entirely because when I eat them I feel exhausted and sick. I’m wondering if her hacks might be helpful to process carbs better. I don’t really want to do keto, but I’m so sick and tired of feeling sick and tired. My doctor won’t prescribe me with metformin because my A1C levels are normal even though my fasting insulin was high and I have all the symptoms of IR.
Hey Abbey! I love your videos because they always give me so much motivation and reassurance. I just graduated nursing school and it really messed up my diet and I’m barely recovering from my emotional binge eating. Do you recommend any appetite suppressants? I love nutrition and have learned so much about it but I struggle with my cravings. I know what is healthy and what is not but it does not take away my desire to constantly just EAT.
Oh Abby, THANKYOU for calling out all the red flags and pseudoscience 🙏 whilst remaining kind and compassionate to the persons current fitness/nutrition journey.
I love your vids Abbey, very informative and funny...and Daisy...about the alkaline water...studies but not studies, kinda studies, people were doing on people, who had some chronic something...oh boy...
I can understand cutting out the rice but not the cookie if your goal is to reduce carbs and the rice brings less enjoyment . She seems like someone who's bought into some diet fads but is reluctantly discovering that she does better with balance and decant portions !
What are Daisy Keech's credentials? I just looked at her channel and don't see any. Why would anyone take nutritional and/or exercise advice from her? I'm genuinely asking.
Because of her looks 😆 I guess a lot of people still buy in to anyone that has a certain type of desirable appearance. Some part of peoples' minds might semiconsciously think that they can be more like that if they follow this person's lead, even though I think most people know better when they think through it. There's still that instinct or fantasy, vague association, or whatever. Not a psychologist, just my 2 cents.
@@Rylielevi400 i think there is no real pet or human name. An example would be nick names for humans. It all depends on context. My birds are for example called lukas and maya.

Can you help clear up an interesting claim? I use to eat more white rice but I cut it out since reading it can cause diabetes? What's your take on this
I can’t stand the fad of swapping actual carbs for f*cking cauliflower!😩😩 I LIKE cauliflower, preferably covered in cheese and gravy on a Sunday roast🥹🤤
I think alot of people should be aware that most Bodybuilders and Instagram models (women with small waists and massive banks) do not show what they actually eat. If you've ever seen those models that have over exaggerated breasts and butts with a small waist but their butt and boobs look fatty rather than fake then they've most likely gone through enhancements, usually it's a fat transfer. They will eat an insane amount of calories daily while wearing a waist trainer and get it transfered from one area to a desired area. Bodybuilders are beginning to open up about their food intake to the public, but most female instagram models are not and will usually show ur steriotypical model diet. Yeah the weight gain isn't exactly flattering which is why u won't see them, but I'm left to assume a fat transfer is still safer than the ever so popular oil injections since oil injections are illegal to perform. Hips, thighs and big glutes require alot of fat, and are usually shaped by a surgeon. You'd be surprised how many procedures some of these "fitness" models go through.
see, Daisy has had a breastjob. She was open about it. She's always been very thin and she felt insecure about it so she started doing exercises for butt. Her butt grew naturally, even a doctor certified it. She had a b00bjob becs she was still insecure about it. She talked about it and she even told the name of her doctor.
Hi I have a question I am a gymnastics and I have 4 hour practice with no break what would you recommend I eat before so I am 1 not nauseous 2 not dying of starvation 3 not bloated 4 energized
Hi Abbey, I was just wondering about the statement "food or drink does not change the pH of your body." I think food can technically change the pH of your blood when you're in ketosis because ketones are acidic functional groups and an excess of them can create a slightly more acidic environment, not enough to kill you of course though! What do you think?
I guess I mean that certain types of food wouldn't directly change your bodies pH, moreso the lack of certain types of foods (i.e. carbs). Sorry, I felt like my first comment didn't portray what I was trying to say.
@@amelialynn3684 Oh yeah, I'm neither here nor there on the keto trend but metabolic regulation is a topic I'm interested in so I wanted to hear what she thought about it !
![Blox Fruits Dragon Rework Update [Full Stream]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/EqDAp8udhm0/mqdefault.jpg)
It’s sad that she says she’s “so tired” so many times. You’re tired because you’re under fueling your body. Even very intense workouts shouldn’t leave you feeling completely drained. I workout 6-7x/wk and 1-3x a day and I have tons of energy to do yard work, make nutritious meals, etc. I did not feel this way when I was in a chronic calorie deficit however.
I was wondering if it was just me thinking she looks and sounds exhausted during the whole video. I honestly don't know how anyone following her channel would feel compelled to adopt her lifestyle when she portrays zero...enthusiasm. I'm not familiar with her content, so maybe she was having an "off-day," but even so, why make a video if you're not in it to win it?
@@heyitsdersshe is being paid by the food industry ... but may be using Reverse psychology? My son's oncologist sent us to a dietician for consult and she was morbidly obese and going bald. Did we listen to her advice to eat anything we wanted just to get calories? That was the start of our nutrician journey. Plain wholesome food. Intermittant fasting. No snacks. Iodine, C sun and positive attitude. 1997. Hes still kicking
You work out more than once a day? & almost everyday?? Do you work full time? How are you not tired. Share your secret pls
@@olivej696 I work full time as a personal trainer and I’m a semi-pro athlete. When I say 1-3x a day that includes things like yoga, cross training, and prehab exercises - it’s not all strength training and running. The key is that most people are simultaneously eating too little and working out at too high of an intensity too often. For aerobic workouts you should do 80% at a easy effort and only 20% at a hard effort. And for strength training you have to be balancing progressive overload hard sessions with corrective exercise, prehab and active recovery like yoga and mobility work. You also have to ease into it. Most people start doing way too much and don’t give their bodies enough time to adapt to the lifestyle and make the physiological changes required to handle the volume they’re asking their bodies to handle. Also, sleep!! Athletes require 8-10 hours of sleep (I recommend naps). Lastly, if you have the resources required, I’d recommend getting a blood panel, particularly ferritin, iron, and vitamin D levels. If you’re deficient in these areas you’ll battle chronic fatigue no matter how good you are about the other areas. I’d also like to emphasize that this is a lifestyle that isn’t realistic for people with other passions and responsibilities (like if you have children).
@@heyitsders Daisy always talks in a low-ish voice. She also said that "I'm tired" is more of a catchphrase, she's just got this habit becs her friend says it all the time (same with me, my best friend says "oh my god" a lot and I've developed this as well)- Daisy said this in an IG QnA
It's sad that people demonize rice and bread for carbs but will drink like 3 pressed juices a day and not realize that it's also carbs. It's just such an interesting relationship with food.
Especially because bread and brown rice are often complex carbs with a slower release and a more positive impact on leptin and satiety 😢
@@maddyG7414yes true….you just gotta be careful with brown rice because it can cause inflammation, it’s basically white rice with the husk still on it so it makes it hard to digest for some people. I have noticed it gives me gas & hurts my tummy a bit. Yes to Carbs!!!

Right, like why do we treat ourselves like training animals
Yup! ❤️
It's always the people who have the wrong information who spread it the most. All of that carb talk made me think about an old coworker who was shaming me for eating "carbs" and proceeded to eat an entire bag of baby carrots in front of me.. WHILE explaining the science behind "carbs making you fat" :) can everyone just mind their business one in awhile haha
Yeah everyone I know still demonizes potatoes, fries, etc. I lost a lot of weight eating plenty of carbs (62 lbs) Just watched my portions Love my carbs
@@tracy_cakkes that's awesome you get to enjoy your carbs and reach your goal weight. I think everything needs to be in moderation for you to enjoy life & food, no use trying to be super healthy & restrictive if you are miserable from not getting to eat intuitively! I think more people nowadays have trouble with weight and obesity since we can be quite sedentary, with lockdown forcing us to avoid the gym and outdoors, delivery services, not many parks or walkable cities & online hobbies. It's tough paying for fruits and veggies that can quickly go to waste & companies hide a lot from you, adding extra sugar, preservatives. I recently heard air fryers were releasing some harmful chemicals as well. It's almost like you can't win. Sorry for the long rant though! Hope you have a nice day.
Thank you!!! The carb fear propaganda is getting out of hand!! One must simply look at the science to understand how amazing and wonderful whole foods carbs are for you and your health!!
@@brittanys505 yes 100% I love walking. My job is in a school so I walk a lot. I also have a treadmill. And yes, how can u keep the weight off forever if ur miserable? At that point I wouldn’t even care anymore lol I also don’t use food delivery or eat fast food. I make everything at home. Hope u have a great day as well :)
Hahaha this right here. Just wait until she figures out the carbs in a banana.
I know you're a credible source, but you always citing peer reviewed research articles makes my academic heart so so so happy!
Just FYI banana cream puff flavor has been voluntarily recalled by Built in USA due to salmonella/listeria issues. I work in the food industry and getting FDA news daily. You may want to throw it out or check lot# to see if it been recalled
Is there any page, like IG or anywhere that they post this things? I think is good to follow them. I had to return a sunscreen once, luckily I found the news bc the retailer didn't inform us.
Seems like everything being recalled nowadays :( thx for sharing
FDA page is a good resource
Quite a big concern how alot of things are getting recalled. I’m an Environmental Health Practitioner, RSA., and this gives us chest pains hoping there won’t be food poisoning reports…
@@Jelenicko and Health Canada if you're in Canada, not US. :)
Daisy is my least favourite type of fitness influencer. Completely aesthetic-based (“what I eat to build my booty”), absolutely no education regarding the function and mechanics of movement, toxic attitudes toward food and the need to justify what you’re eating because you’re going to “burn it off” or “use it for my workout.” Working out and fitness is not just about having a big booty. Fitness and nutrition is about so much more than how it makes you look.
actually she does make videos on mechanics of movement and activations, I remember seeing it on her channel
I get the feeling that most "influencers" on "diet" and exercise really have no idea on what they are doing.
100%
@@nini-qc1qd oh ya? is she quoting "kinda studies" there too? kewl
@@mima9277 I mean, she's putting it out there for free so it's helpful ya know? My body is a lot like hers so her exercises help me a lot. Some days I eat less than her, sometimes I eat more- it just depends. She never said she's a nutritionist and she isn't forcing anyone to follow what she does. She's been super helpful to me and there are a lot of reviews on YT about girlies trying her workouts; they usually post positive results along with evidence. Just like I probably wouldn't take exercise advice from Abbey, I probably won't take nutrition advice from Daisy. No one's forcing us.
Oh in my personal experience, I tried doing what Daisy is doing and ended up with an ED a couple of years ago. I mean since then I've gotten so much better, I'm on a mediterranean diet right now and I'm loving it. I'm able to work out and chase my kids around. It's amazing to feel myself again
Thank you for sharing your experience with this!
love the mediterranean diet...its just a great way of eating for life!
@@MelissaCapriotti it's my all time favorite and it works well with my PCOS/endometrosis and diverticulitis. It's not restrictive at all and I feel genuinely better since switching to it. So many fun meal ideas I've come across too!
@@amywestermire2088 that is so awesome! there are so many fun Meal ideas…I’ve gone down that rabbit hole a few to many times:)
I just eat what I want. Coffee for breakfast. Some leftover Mexican food for lunch and half a donut. Dinner was a taco salad and a small cupcake and juice.
Sure, I could lose 5 lbs, but life is too short for this nonsense.
I'm a daycare teacher and I pack myself high-protein, high-carb lunches just to keep up with the little ones! I am not at all surprised that Daisy is so tired.
“A mushroom could technically fart on this Almond Milk and we could call it a Superfood” 😂🍄💨

Omg when she talked about the alkaline water 😂 I wonder if she actually knows what the words mean that come out of her mouth.
I guess we've been doing it all wrong drinking "normal" water for thousands of years.
After studying microbiology, chemistry, and physiology... people who preach for alkaline water and refuse to listen to proper science are so laughable. To each their own I suppose
😂😂
The only way that I've heard of "alkaline water" is when electrolytes are added.
It’s the stupidest thing Like just drink water period
But people with chronic something have tested it and felt better! 😂😂
This goes to show you some of these fitness influencers don’t know a lot. It’s like regurgitation of the same restrictions. Just cause they manage to look a certain way doesn’t mean it’s done healthy or is sustainable. I don’t know/follow her, but she seems so dull, like when someone is on a major calorie deficit.
I love your commentary on these videos.
^^ this. Tons of misinformation about carbs, alkaline water, organic, blah blah blah. And she does seem so tired/dull in all these clips. I hope this young woman has a more positive and/or evidence based health awakening soon
She's dull not just from calorie restriction, also from focusing on what she eats, counting calories and having to justify it to herself and her audience.
I also believe they edited a lot of body shots in video and pictures to get more attention
@@rosievriesinga5904 wait really?
It's honestly so crazy to me how much of a hold the low carb mentality has on society. I'm currently getting my masters in nutrition and it blows my mind how often people are telling me they're not eating carbs because "it makes me fat". On top of that, marketing terms like "superfood" are thrown around so much now that I'm seeing people who believe they can't be healthy because they can't eat (or afford!!) all the "superfoods" every day
Low carb can be great if you’re doing it for the right reasons. Eating lower carb has helped my PCOS tremendously.
The thing is that carbs make some people "fatter" . No i dont mean they gain 15 pounds or anything like that. For example if you are a skinny fat person, cutting carbs or at least doing lower carbs while training will help you lose belly fat faster. And no its not bullshit. I myself have done it and its true. So stop this bullshit with carbs are great. Yes they are. But not for everyone. And for most people carbs at like 300g a day a really not needed if your sitinh in your chair doing nothing lol.
@@kbiviano8390 Yes, absolutely! Thanks for making that point!
@@kristianstuller2321 You’re right, eating a bunch of carbs every day isn’t great for everyone. Sorry - I’m not trying to demonize that. In my experience, I’ve just seen a lot of people who don’t function well without enough carbs. I totally agree some people definitely do better without/lower carb. I guess I was just trying to say they’re not always the enemy
no they’re not. i’m keto right no because i have to lose weight fast but i miss eating carbs haha. like oatmeal and fruit, the occasional pizza or tacos, rice and beans(😭)
This was honestly pretty upsetting to watch. Daisy’s channel was one of my main inspirations to start purging because I wanted to look like her so badly. As an adult women, I now see how twisted and wrong her relationship with her food and body is. If it weren’t for Abby’s commentary I probably would’ve just spiraled back to purging. It’s really important to get this out there, especially to young women.
I’m so sorry if this was triggering for you!
Thank you for sharing, daisy should be more mindful of her relationship with her body and food, if not for herself then at least for those who are inspired by her to avoid spreading and encouraging these restrictive habits
And also she is very wealthy and can afford plastic surgery and injection. Your beautiful the way you are ladies 💕
@@AbbeysKitchen thanks for caring so much about your viewers, but what you’re doing is too important to stop! ☺️
wwwwwwwww wewa were going out
As someone who has struggled with getting good quality sleep all her life, I've definitely noticed that having carbs before bed has helped with my sleep. I have a small sandwich or some oats just before bed almost every night now.
I have had a carb snack and skim milk every night for decades now. Literally cannot sleep untik that happens.
Same. I love oatmeal before bed. I’ve read a lot of articles saying “don’t eat before bed because it’s bad” but eating before bed prevents me from waking up in the middle of the night hungry so I ignore it and continue doing what works for me. Every body is different!!
I have one of those chronic acid reflux syndromes so I make sure to eat before sleeping some good biscuits or toast with marmalade . It stops me from waking up on a completely empty stomach (otherwise I have this strange feeling of hollowness among with the nausea from my acid problems). Although there might be some cultural and psychological elements to it, bc growing up in my country, toast is the thing that you were fed if you had a sick stomach (thought to be acting like a sponge and non irritating???? Maybe idk).
Before bed I often eat a carb like a banana, whole grain bread, Greek yogourt oat bowl. I hate it when people say it’s bad to eat before bed (which my parents commented on all my life) because otherwise I wake up really hungry.
She reminds me of me when I was so scared of carbs, she’s demonitizing carbs so much it’s dangerous to post that kinda shit on the internet. Since I’ve been eating more carbs I actually started meeting my physique goals and feel so much better about myself
same
I love the whole idea about alkaline water and adjusting your pH. It’s very funny since I learned so much about having your pH changes and the interventions that are needed in order to get back to your body’s happy place in nursing school. Plus, if you have chronic UTI or urinary calculi, you are advised to drink acidic fruit just juice (prune, blueberry, cranberry, etc) to help make your urine more acidic since as you said, being acidic is the favorable pH.
How have I just found you!! I did a nutritional science masters, and I literally love how helpful you are and wish I found you when I was writing my research papers 😂 the way you form sentences are so scientific, and I love the research backed up behind everything you say !! 💘
This whole video made me so hungry. Needed to get myself a little snacky-snack half way through lol
Totally!
I was actually trying to think of what I wanted to eat for a quickish late night dinner (I had rehearsal earlier tonight). I decided on savory/spicey breakfast-at-dinner omlette with liquid egg whites (have to really watch my cholesterol), leftover chili spiced couscous, and some sauteed bell pepper and mushrooms, served with some spicey leftover salsa, and a spoonful of sour cream. For a dessert, I decided to have some "pine" berries (strawberries that have a bit of a pineapple flavor to them). However, I have to admit, I was super tempted to just go out and get a sandwhich from Subway....but trying to not spend as much money, and use what I have here at home.
@@janetslater129 pine berries!? Where do you acquire such a lovely sounding thing?
@@Alyssa684 Found them at my local Aldi, and also at Meijer.
@Kara Fightmaster I said it once and my husband laughed at me 😂
Her meals looked pretty good but I just hated the carb shaming comments. Can we just eat ur rice without thinking it's like a devils food? Please and thank you.
You can always depend on Abbey to come with straight facts! RUclips needs more of this. Hopefully I can one day make videos that help the masses.
Thank you! ❤️
speaking from my own experience with restricting food and having an eating disorder - she seems and looks exhausted from under-eating; anyone else agree on that?
so sad to see such a young and hard-working girl feeling like she doesn't "deserve" to eat foods in moderate amounts, as I really would not like to see anyone else suffering from an ed like myself:((
i agree it’s so upsetting and as someone who looked sad/ had ‘lifeless’ eyes during my ed, you can definitely see that in her :(
as someone who struggles with restriction and disordered eating patterns, i think it does make sense. she makes her meals look "full" and "healthy" so its easy to get fooled into thinking she is eating enough. shes not SEVERLY malnourished (yet), but she does seem a bit worn down and drained. she clearly undereats, especially considering the amount of workouts she does daily. her diet has enough vitamins and important macros to keep her somewhat healthy (or at least relatively healthy), but theres a lack of energy. possibly from avoiding carbs so much? lifting is heavy exercise and most people who lift eat more to grow their muscles. if she keeps it up, she might start to loose the muscle (has happened to me lol)
@@evie55555 yeah, she even seems to have the "brain fog" a bit! she speaks very slowly and kinda like she cant focus, which i usually experience when i eat especially low amounts or workout a lot. im not sure if that can be the case, but it seems like it
It was sad to see her justifying herself every time see chose to eat carbs
Yeah overall it seemed like a fine diet, but it’s weird seeing someone think so much about 1 slice of bread or half a cup of rice.
It was so triggering tbh!
Another reason to be aware of the high ph not being helpful for everyone, I was drinking a higher ph water and got a raw 🙀! No uti but red and irritated. Took like 3 weeks/1 month to have the issue and equally as long to recover.
Thank you, Abbey, for another great video! Would love to see a video (or two!) in the future about your approach and techniques for raising kids with healthy eating habits and talking about the diet-fearmongering many influencers engage in today.
Hi Abbey! I just wanted to leave a comment to say thank you for your videos, they were such a good distraction for me these past few weeks. I am in the hospital right now for the second time in 2 months because my vitals were dangerously low due to what I was previously diagnosed, anorexia. Your videos are super entertaining and a great distraction.💓
Get Well! 💚
Take good care and be well Sophie!

My family has been doing an adult only Easter Egg hunt for 30 years. There's money involved. People have had to go to the ER for stitches. It's a whole thing and I LOVE it.
😲 I need to know more... What does it entail?! Indoors/outdoors? Rules?
@@xkristixx haha. So my grandma hides money in about a quarter of the Easter eggs in various amounts (now it’s just values on a piece of paper due to losing money). There’s 3 “golden” eggs with 20 dollars. The rules are find eggs and that’s about it. We’ve been known to tackle each other and push and shove. There is a big competition for most eggs found, most money and best money to egg ratio. Stitches have happened because of poorly placed eggs near things that could slice you and when two people go for the egg one person is bound to get hurt. Eggs are also very strategically hidden sometimes holes have been dug. Haha
Love that!
LOL for a split second, my brain confused "churro" with "chorizo" for the Build Bar intro, and I was suuuuuper put-off by the idea of a spicy sausage breakfast bar. XD
Abbey, I would love to see a video on alcohol consumption and body composition/weight loss goals. I’m not a heavy drinker by any means, but I love my wine and feel hella guilty about it because of its lack of nutritive content to justify it.
This🙌🏼
Please I need this too!
Great shout! 👍🙏
I quit alcohol almost 3 years ago, Aug. 4, and it is the best thing I ever did for my health. I was beginning to get really inflamed and bloated and puffy after even a few drinks. Not to mention the bad decisions I made regarding driving and food when I had been drinking.
I am 5'10, 128 lb , 44 years old, and it is really easy to maintain without dieting and without overly stressful exercise. I highly recommend!
Yes!! Great video idea!!
Hi Abbey. So glad to hear you speak positively about carbs. It's a relief to hear someone not demonizing them! Be great to hear more about carbs....
At this point anytime I see a food label making a claim as a “superfood” I’m immediately turned off. It’s just a marketing tool to make the consumer feel better and also uses it as an excuse to charge more for an otherwise basic product. Also whatever benefit there is in that creamer, I highly doubt a single serving of creamer is enough to have a significant impact.
I don’t under how any fitness person can speak about carbs like an afterthought. It’s literally what you need to fuel your body, especially for your workouts.
Loved loved loved the excellent and intelligent commentary in this video! You never fail to make me feel more informed about nutrition and our basic human needs in every video.
I don't know about anyone else, but oats before (or I've tried to eat them during long runs before as well) get my tummy going in a super not ideal way! Where some people say that toaster waffles have no place in your diet, I say that toaster waffles with peanut butter and banana are my FAV pre-run snack.
Side note: Abbey, I love how you continuously talk about fueling our bodies in ways that work for us and support our specific dietary needs. I ran cross country in high school and remember almost getting a "prescription" from a coach about what foods I needed to include and exclude in order to get faster. I thank God that my mother (who is a nurse) blatantly disregarded my coach's wishes and focused on balanced meals with hunger crushing combos!
I love lion’s mane mushroom, glad to hear there’s research showing it is beneficial. I usually buy it dried from the asian supermarket and throw it into dishes with a liquidy sauce. It’s like a sponge that absorbs all the flavours
just wanted to pop in and say that i love this comment as much as i love the sound of that mushroom in soup
My Quebec Canadian self was humbled at the beginning with the ”très” haha
bruh, when she was explaining why alkaline water is "good for your body" she didn't even know what she was saying, omg almost gave me a stroke listening to that part
Yeah I feel really bad saying this but that part made her look really stupid. You could tell she had no idea what she was talking about :/
I actually have tried the lairds creamer and really enjoyed it! Idk if it helped much but was yummy! I do have some mushroom powder tho that I’ll add when I really want the benefits
I love Laird’a matcha and mushroom creamer, I have had it almost every day for three years. It’s kinda spendy but it’s still better than getting a matcha at a coffee shop every day.
Agreed. No idea if there are any quantifiable benefits but the Laird mushroom creamer is legit DELICIOUS in my breakfast tea!
Daisy can just tell us she doesn’t really eat. The end
I don’t understand what everyone has against carbs 😂 they’re so good
When I last bought water, I could only find alkaline water. I mean, our tap water probably qualifies, because our limestone filtered aquifer makes our water so hard I could smell it when I first moved here. But I was struck by the fact that I couldn't opt out of this trend when I needed to buy water.
I’m vegan, low thyroid and medication makes me lose weight so slow and sometimes I get down about if I should eat something because I haven’t exercised enough to “earn” it. It quickly becomes such a spiral and it’s hard to change that mind set! But watching your videos makes it easier to make healthier choices, with eating AND thinking
THATS LITERALLY ME! it really feels like no matter what you do...there are no changes...ugh..good luck to us ahah
I am watching your videos not only for entertainment but for advice because I want to be healthier as well. But dang I could never live my life like her. Sometimes food is happiness and comfort and that's okay. I'm not trying to say eat terribly all the time, no fuel your body right but man.
With regards to alkaline water: in ruminants, excess ammonia (a very basic substance) from urea fed to them, cause a rumen alkalosis and causes a lot of rumen microbes to die, especially important gram negative bacteria. Urease (enzyme needed for urea to ammonia conversion) however stops at a pH at 9-ish... So you then have rumen stasis on top of the metabolic acidosis in blood vessels (NH3 in the blood as NH4+ that is an hydrogen donor). This indicates that the alkalinity of what is ingested, DOES have an effect
You had me when you said a mushroom could fart on the creamer. Thank you for your honest input with humor! Love your videos.
Seeing you eat Built bars kills me bc they all have dairy and I can’t eat them!(lactose intolerant and vegan). As their biggest fan, maybe you could ask them to work on a vegan version?
Literally the reason I have to skip the ads I get mad at all the fun flavor options! I’m also allergic to treenuts and peanuts so it’s super hard to find a vegan protein bar that’s good
I second this!!
@@KateS1980 ohh do you have any suggestions for good vegan protein bars? 👀
They taste disgusting
@Felicitas the Nugo brand has a ton of great vegan options. A lot of the “dark” flavors are vegan and the “slim” line has several vegan ones to. I literally eat the crunchy peanut butter one every day.
The alkaline water part is so cringe 😂😂 the thing I don’t respect about daisy is she literally has no credibility (not a nutritionist or personal trainer) and has fitness apps selling for $97?!
Daisy doesn't have a clue what she's talking about. Ever. She got famous for the way that she looks and decided to capitalize on it without any real skills or education, and it shows. All she does is use diet culture to scam her vulnerable followers
"nutritionist" is not a thing though. You mean a dietician.
I worked at a yoga studio where we had the thing that changes the water's pH to make it more alkaline. I ended up with horrible diarrhea at one point. I went back to regular filtered water and seltzer.
I'm sorry that happened to you! your stomach is acidic because it's one of your first defenses against bacteria, i really face palm at people who are obsessed with alkaline water. we need to trust our bodies homeostasis! lol

It’s so interesting about insulin sensitivity as I find it varies so much person to person, I inject insulin so am like hyper aware of mine, and find I’m more sensitive to it in the morning and in the evening, especially after I’ve worked out but often skip lunch because it’s so hard to balance the timing with the insulin dose and I often have to wait too long for it to kick in during a busy day. Be interested to learn more about it xx
for some reason anything but a full on keto breakfast fucks with my insulin all day o.O
i am fine with carbs in the evening tho. but as soon as i eat any carbs w my breakfast i struggle with food cravungs all day long. despite eating the same as i always do
To your point, I also inject and I find I’m so insensitive in the morning, I typically need 50% more insulin in the morning that I do after I’ve been up for a few hours. It really just can’t be generalized.
Yeah it’s mad! My lunches have to be full of fibre and low carb to keep mine steady and I still have to inject more and wait up to an hour before eating, but at dinner I can inject less and eat a good amount of carbs. Bodies are weird hey!

Could you possibly do some sort of commentary on Laura Spath? She is a RUclipsr who eats a carnivore diet. She is SUPER sweet with a precious family, and I am so mesmerized by her story and way of eating. I just don’t quite understand the carnivore diet from a science perspective (which I know you’ve covered before surrounding Joe Rohan’s podcast), and I want to know more. Thanks; love you Abbey!
I’m laying in bed watching your videos all day. Walked 6.7 miles at a boat show yesterday and everything hurts 😭 😂
Suggestion - I'd love to hear your take on anti-nutrients. I hear about them all the time these days, and it sounds like it's an actual researched thing, but how much do we really need to pay attention to them?
lol i literally have just been lying in bed watching your videos all day cause my dad has covid, so i've been pretty much quarantined with him. thankfully, i do not have covid, but back when i did, that's when i discovered your channel. i've always wanted to become a certified nutritionist, but haven't studied it extensively, so i appreciate learning from your channel because it's the most effective way for me to learn new things. so thanks abbey - for making my laziness productive!
on a different note, can you see if you review more "what I eat in a day" videos that are a bit more diverse than your average "influencer's" or celebrity's what i eat in a day videos? I know they are more common amongst influencers and such, and I know you've made reviews about more unique diets, but I want to see more! either way, thank you again for posting cause i enjoy your down to earth content anyway and always have a good laugh at your edits!
sourdough is super good😋live life to the fullest and stop the extreme cutting out of foods🤷🏽♀️
I love your channel so much it motivates me to overcome my food struggles 🫶🏻
I don't eat much rice most of it because it makes me gain weight rapidly, but rice is a most in Ecuadorian cuisine so, I eat moderately, especially a rice and beans or chicken ❤❤ sorry the orthography.
I have been battling acid reflux that is clearly linked to stress. I have been taking alkaline meds whenever I feel acid going up my esophagus. Trying to lower my stress. Last thing before I set up a consult with a doctor would be taking meds that lower the production of acid in the stomach for a few weeks. That is when you need to reduce acid on your system, when it is out of whack. It seems to be getting better, probably because I have been focusing on the stress reduction, sleep and exercise.
In case anyone needed to hear it again: Food is not the enemy of your goal body. Food is the fuel that will get you there.
I honestly think that breakfast is super healthy it has protein and tons of carbs sugars vitamins minerals potassium! All great things to get you going in the morning
Oh my goodness I’m here so early,hi Abby!hope you’re doing well!
This was a very informational video! Thank you so much Abbey I appreciate you
So glad it was helpful!
The organic juice doesn’t get shamed because it’s expensive, rice gets demonized because it’s cheap. Classism is everywhere 😂
Superfoods which can only be consumed in small amounts are great for your health but a little bit of regular old bread is the devil. Love this mindset
The amount of ads kill me but honestly the content makes it worth it! I love your videos and I can forgive u for the ads 🤣
I bought that laird's creamer once when it was marked down at the store & it's absolutely terrible. Thin, too sweet, weird flavors. Not to mention they're probably not harvesting their chaga mushrooms in the most sustainable way. Bizarre phenomenon that mushroom thing
I laugh every time you promote Built Bars. I actually look forward to it. 😂
I love Laird 😍 Its local to me and they're the coolest company, they do so much for families and some non profits in my area! I can't speak to the health claims/ingredients in it but it tastes good haha
Lmao the fact that she sounds so unsure herself about speaking about the alkaline water studies shows us that we shouldn't accept diet tips from daisy 😆 she has good workout videos though, and I hope she grows through the carb hate because she damn well deserves those carbs!!
hi! if possible would you do a video on low glycemic diets? I also want to know if it is actually a bad decisions to eat rice and potatoes in the same meal
Hey, just wondering why it would be a bad idea to eat both in the same meal? I mean it sounds a bit weird but if you like it, why not. Just add veggies and protein 😉
@@wa6184 I was writing a detailed answer as to why my mom said it was a bad idea, even when where I'm from its quite normal to eat stews with potatoes accompanied with rice or other things like that and I realised that maybe it's just diet culture and there's nothing wrong with it if it's not everything in eating for a meal. So thank you :))
It's really very frightening, how these influencers spew out so much BS. I'm so tired of it.
Could you do a video on glucose goddess? I have insulin resistance and have been avoiding carbs almost entirely because when I eat them I feel exhausted and sick. I’m wondering if her hacks might be helpful to process carbs better. I don’t really want to do keto, but I’m so sick and tired of feeling sick and tired. My doctor won’t prescribe me with metformin because my A1C levels are normal even though my fasting insulin was high and I have all the symptoms of IR.
As someone with T2D, don't eat "naked" carbs. Always pair them with fiber, protein, and/or fat. This helps prevent blood sugar spikes.
Hey Abbey! I love your videos because they always give me so much motivation and reassurance. I just graduated nursing school and it really messed up my diet and I’m barely recovering from my emotional binge eating. Do you recommend any appetite suppressants?
I love nutrition and have learned so much about it but I struggle with my cravings. I know what is healthy and what is not but it does not take away my desire to constantly just EAT.
I wish “influencers” wouldnt talk about subjects they have no clue about.
Oh Abby, THANKYOU for calling out all the red flags and pseudoscience 🙏 whilst remaining kind and compassionate to the persons current fitness/nutrition journey.
“Even if you’re in bed watching my videos” Me: 👀
I have been watching your videos all weekend
Everything in moderation and fueling our bodies with a balance of protein, carbs and fats with lots of variety and color:)
I love your vids Abbey, very informative and funny...and Daisy...about the alkaline water...studies but not studies, kinda studies, people were doing on people, who had some chronic something...oh boy...
Tres excited lol. Never stop being you!
Her pronunciation of tres!!
Ahhh I’m here so early! Love your videos 😍
If there is an afterlife, when I die it's on sight with Dr. Atkins. My god, the damage that man has done 🤦🏻♀️
I can understand cutting out the rice but not the cookie if your goal is to reduce carbs and the rice brings less enjoyment . She seems like someone who's bought into some diet fads but is reluctantly discovering that she does better with balance and decant portions !
I love Stephanie Buttermore but I'd definitely love to see you review her!
I sware I can feel the misery of my ED while watching this.It was so miserable,never happy,terrified of gaining weight,no peace….EVER
that coffee creamer is soooooo good though. i use the cinnamon one 😋
What are Daisy Keech's credentials? I just looked at her channel and don't see any. Why would anyone take nutritional and/or exercise advice from her? I'm genuinely asking.
Because of her looks 😆 I guess a lot of people still buy in to anyone that has a certain type of desirable appearance. Some part of peoples' minds might semiconsciously think that they can be more like that if they follow this person's lead, even though I think most people know better when they think through it. There's still that instinct or fantasy, vague association, or whatever. Not a psychologist, just my 2 cents.
@@BC-np8cb good points.
Thank you for all the info about Lionsmane! ❤️I’ve been trying LM supplements to see if it helps with my energy, etc. 🤷🏻♀️
I got chicken and vegan buffalo cauliflower. Im not vegan btw.
~daisy, 2022
Isn’t Daisy a pet name? As a non native speaker I am confused
@@Rylielevi400 i think there is no real pet or human name. An example would be nick names for humans. It all depends on context. My birds are for example called lukas and maya.
@@rainbowlife5964 ok, I get it. I am used to pets having human names, just that in Europe Daisy is a very popular pet name so I didn’t realise it was used by humans too 😅
Can you help clear up an interesting claim? I use to eat more white rice but I cut it out since reading it can cause diabetes? What's your take on this
I can’t stand the fad of swapping actual carbs for f*cking cauliflower!😩😩
I LIKE cauliflower, preferably covered in cheese and gravy on a Sunday roast🥹🤤
I think alot of people should be aware that most Bodybuilders and Instagram models (women with small waists and massive banks) do not show what they actually eat. If you've ever seen those models that have over exaggerated breasts and butts with a small waist but their butt and boobs look fatty rather than fake then they've most likely gone through enhancements, usually it's a fat transfer. They will eat an insane amount of calories daily while wearing a waist trainer and get it transfered from one area to a desired area. Bodybuilders are beginning to open up about their food intake to the public, but most female instagram models are not and will usually show ur steriotypical model diet. Yeah the weight gain isn't exactly flattering which is why u won't see them, but I'm left to assume a fat transfer is still safer than the ever so popular oil injections since oil injections are illegal to perform. Hips, thighs and big glutes require alot of fat, and are usually shaped by a surgeon. You'd be surprised how many procedures some of these "fitness" models go through.
see, Daisy has had a breastjob. She was open about it. She's always been very thin and she felt insecure about it so she started doing exercises for butt. Her butt grew naturally, even a doctor certified it. She had a b00bjob becs she was still insecure about it. She talked about it and she even told the name of her doctor.
Hi I have a question I am a gymnastics and I have 4 hour practice with no break what would you recommend I eat before so I am
1 not nauseous
2 not dying of starvation
3 not bloated
4 energized
Full fat Greek yogurt with fruit plus a side of toast with peanut butter:)
Thank you I will try those!!:)
Abbey: sleep is important
Me with insomnia watching the video at 2 am: 😐
Hi Abbey, I was just wondering about the statement "food or drink does not change the pH of your body." I think food can technically change the pH of your blood when you're in ketosis because ketones are acidic functional groups and an excess of them can create a slightly more acidic environment, not enough to kill you of course though! What do you think?
I guess I mean that certain types of food wouldn't directly change your bodies pH, moreso the lack of certain types of foods (i.e. carbs). Sorry, I felt like my first comment didn't portray what I was trying to say.
@@livelifehappy2 Abby is against keto so I’m sure she won’t reply to you. I agree with your statement though
@@amelialynn3684 Oh yeah, I'm neither here nor there on the keto trend but metabolic regulation is a topic I'm interested in so I wanted to hear what she thought about it !
