@@Denidrakes69 Bill Gates and the WHO are pushing for a meatless society i.e., synthetic meat and insects for YOU to eat, not them. You have an internet connection, do some homework, check prices and nutritional values of the crap they want to shove down our throats. It's an eye opener.
Every diet and every exercise will contradict one another if you watch enough videos and or read literature on. I prefer common sense diet and exercise. Excercise regularly, don’t over eat, stay away from sodas and fast food, drink lots of water, surround yourself with positive like minded people and you’ll have a good starting point for a healthy lifestyle.
Hi Jeff, I feel it’s important to speak out here. Im a huge fan and have been following your advice for years, as I'm sure so have millions of other people. I read the actual study about bananas in smoothies, and it has been misquoted a lot. The study did not mix bananas and berry’s together in a smoothie. There were two separate smoothies prepared. While participants did see a reduction in Polyphenols after consuming the banana smoothie, there is no direct evidence to say adding the banana with berries has a detrimental effect. “it is possible to extend this observation to suggest that drinks, and potentially other food preparations made with blended, pureed, or pulverized fruits and vegetables containing high PPO activity, could also limit the bioavailability of flavan-3-ols and, potentially, other polyphenolic bioactives.” Preparing a smoothie with berries and banana would be easy to include in the study, but likely did not fit the authors narrative, as can be seen from the language used above. FYI ,the ingredients for the smoothies in the article are: “The banana smoothie was prepared with 177 g of ripe, frozen bananas and 240 g of almond milk. The mixed berry smoothie was prepared with 50 g each of strawberries, blueberries, blackberries and raspberries, 120 g of almond milk, 70 g of water, 105 g of crushed ice, and 95 g of yogurt. “
It's not just that. "wild-caught fish is always gonna be better for you" - strong NOPE. Fish in the wild are being poisoned, nonstop. By all the toxins, heavy metals and what not that we produce, it all ends up in the rivers, lakes and oceans. That's why doctors have been urging people to eat fish with caution for the past three decades or so. "fish is healthy" used to be true. Hasn't been for decades. Nowadays eating fish more than once a month is considered risky, because of all the poison you consume with the fish. If you go over that once a month amount you're at risk of accumulating so much of the heavy metals etc. that you're body is no longer able to get rid of it. Fish farms on the other hand have control over their water quality. You can see already where I'm going with this. The problem with the salmon is the coloring, as explained in the video, but if you compare it to wild salmon you get all those other toxins. So maybe buy fish from a farm where they don't use coloring and avoid wild-caught fish. Fiber is the other thing. The jury's actually still out on that one. That fiber is generally good for us might actually be untrue. There have been studies on people with digestive troubles, chronic diseases etc. where a certain percentage of the people tested stopped showing symptoms when the fiber content in their meals was reduced or even set to zero. So obviously there's something going on there that isn't as easy as "fiber is good for your gut"...
When it comes down to the science of food, imo I think it's important to differentiate data from a study and the practicality of its application. Avoiding whole grain bread because the grain are pulverized doesn't change the fiber content (aside from removing some of the husk), in the same way blending up blueberries into a smoothing doesn't. Your body still has to digest it through chemical means, there just in smaller pieces. The amount of fiber you're missing out on eating the husk is likely small anyway, so again, it's less of a big deal than it's made out to be. Food dyes are really only an issue to people that might be allergic to them. Most of the population wouldn't even know they were added, because the dyes that are used now are the ones that are tested for consumption. It's really not as scary as it sounds. If you're skipping out on yogurt because the probiotics might not actually work... you're missing out on all the other benefits it brings, like being a good protein and packed full of micronutrients. Understanding what you put into your body is great, but if you knew the potential effect of everything that you ate, you'd be eating nothing. Just relax and find what suits your needs. With the exception of how much sodium can be in canned good, it's perfectly fine to eat farmed salmon or yogurt or bread etc. without worrying about destroying your health in a permeant way.
Nutrition must be one of the most problematic scientific areas that exist because what was considered harmful in the past would no longer be and what is considered beneficial today would already be reviewed : If we were to take these studies "to the letter" then we would eat nothing Just my (layman's) opinion: We should reduce our intake of processed foods (especially ultra-processed foods) and include more natural foods
I've been eating 2 to 4 pounds of strawberries per week for a couple of years now, and I've been pest free the whole time... so I've got that goin' for me.
It’s important to note that food standards are different in every country. Australia, where I’m from, has very high food standards. We aren’t allowed to have the sodium, fat or sugar levels that the US does. We also don’t strip fibre out of our food to the same degree and we don’t use corn syrup. I’m not suggesting that the statements made here are incorrect, just to be aware of the differences
+1000 friggin hell mate - x3 is getting to vegemite level - only high salt things i eat are sauerkraut and miso ( 300 is max level for any other thing ) - I make my on sauerkraut - but I have brought a polish one - sodium is not too bad - buy lower Na. miso paste as well - thing is I used healthier things like this to add salt - with miso - wait till my soup or whatever cools down a bit to add miso . I'm a kiwi - don't eat potato chips ( crisps ) anymore - but they can now only have say 350mg of Sodium - weird when other stuff is much more - Kellogs cornflakes used to be over 1000 years ago - like why ?? . My son likes Tikka masala - the sauce I buy has low sodium , sugar and saturated fat - seems to sell - so society is changing - as long ago - people would think that bland and thrown in some sugar , ghee/butter and salt . Baby food is really strict - Don't miss salt - cut massively back on sugar in products - now my 70-80% dark chocolate is too sweet ! so it's 90 or 95% - mostly berries and less of other fruits - mangoes are sweet as - banana I will put on a german style toast bread - so good fibre/carbs ratio to stop GI hit of banana - don't do smoothies anymore
Just a heads up in salmon. The natural colour of salmon is provided by the astaxanthin present on their diet (shrinks and so). Farm salmon doesn't eat that but they usually get their colour by the addition of astaxanthin into their food and not by food dyes.
Exactly. For example, the baltic salmon primarily eats herring and sprat, not crustaceans which get their red color from the astaxanthin in their food. Therefore the color of the baltic salmon is much more pale than the salmon species that eat primarily crustaceans.
I usually love your content but have a couple corrections for you. Farm-raised salmon is fed astaxanthin for color and health, which is the same thing that wild salmon get from shrimp they eat. Farmed salmon aren't fed shrimp, so the farmers supply the astaxanthin from cultured sources instead. It's an important nutrient for salmon and is good for us too. It's not a synthetic food dye. Second, about the pro-biotics, the ones in your yogurt are alive. They make the milk into yogurt. It's kept refrigerated the whole time it goes from the factory to the store. I'm a little skeptical about probiotic pills, which I think is what the doctor was talking about. Pills aren't kept refrigerated and may have spent time in a hot truck and gotten cooked.
Well partially true. Fist of all every single yogurt (and most dairy products) are pasteurized and heat kills most of good stuff including bacteria. My advice is get raw milk and ferment it yourself. I grown on raw milk and home made dairy products. What they do with yogurt is they add artificial bacterias after they pasteurized it. It is same "yogurt" as the milk from the shelf is "milk". Real milk can be fermented. Try it with thus crap from shop. No chance. Fermented food is best way to got your gut in order. In Poland we ferment nearly everything, as before supermarkets and fridges it was one of the ways to preserve food. Beetroot, cabbage, gherkins, Peppers, garlic, onions and way more. Second best option is sprouts and also mushrooms. Best sprouts are from hemp, rye and spelt. At least for me. As far as it goes for probiotics, the really good ones are refrigerated in transport and at shop shelfs. But these are not cheap. Good probiotics will not only give you name of the strain but also the code (usually numbers and letters). Secondly probiotics can be processed exactly same as yeasts, so they are activated once in the body, and not necessarily have to be refrigerated. Bare in mind that prebiotics which are mentioned by doc in the video, are food for your microbiome, but if you lived horrible life (and in addition has been born through cesars cut), you will not have lot of important strains in your gut. So you can eat as much prebiotic as you want, but you will not grow them. Then you can either try to take probiotics, or eventually get microbiotic transplant where essentially they will put someone else poop in your back end. 😅
Jeff, everything in excess is bad, I don't understand why no one talks about ultra-processed foods that are harmful, because they talk badly about fruits, the problem is not the fruits, the problem is the excesses, the problem is that people don't take care of themselves, The problem is that now exercising is fatphobia anyway...
that is completely false. Good things in large amounts just get better. Cut out the trash completely, don't moderate it. Of course I am talking ideally. Most people, myself included, are too weak to go through that cold turkey period. Just really don't buy the "everything in moderation" view.
@@krisp1871everything in moderation is at least healthier than eating all terrible foods in excess. And unfortunately it’s a lot cheaper and affordable to buy and eat the “bad” food in today’s economy.
Felipe, that's a good point. Most people don't need to hear that "bananas are not optimal." They need to hear that ultra-processed food is REALLY UNHEALTHY. Because most people eat ultra-processed food every day. Bananas may not be the perfect food, but it's 100X healthier than eating a McDonald's cheeseburger.
@@krisp1871No, nearly everything becomes deadly in big enough amounts, even water... Of course overeating stuff is bad. Even if it's good food. It is often way harder to overeat good food though but some people manage it. No limit works for many but not for us all. Or not without the right restrictions. I probably wouldn't overeat meat or protein if I ONLY ate meat though I still can imagine situations where it may have some chance... (I can't overeat it to the point of real problems, it's just unnecessarily much. Some people manage to go too far.) It's easy to overeat Vitamin D too, for some of us at least. It is fat soluble and liver has a lot of it. And so on.
Regarding the banana study, the antioxidant that was analyzed wasnt even one high in concentration in blueberries. Micthevegan does a great breakdown of why the study is full of shit
Farmed salmon are not ‘dyed’, their colour comes from a caratenoid pigment astaxanthin added to their feed. Its exactly the same stuff that wild fish get from their natural diet. It’s an antioxidant and has health benefits. Wild salmon and trout caught from areas where they can’t feed on crustaceans also have white flesh.
Farmed salmon are bred in dirty water and are full of diseases which is why the farmers have to add antibiotics and other rubbish to their feed. Best just to avoid farmed salmon completely.
I appreciate the intro, but you have to remember that while bodies everywhere are the same(not 100% true, but almost), laws and regulations in different countries are not. It is not legal to spray with pesticides that way here. We have entire departments of government that must be allowed to conduct surprise visits and collect samples to see if the crops follow regulations. Regarding whole grain bread. What's meant by it is that you use the entire grain, not that it is whole. In many recipes you only want part of the grain because it needs to be fine. I don't know how easy it is to get in the US, but in Denmark we actually use kinda "whole" grains in our rye bread. The bread are essentially rye grains cut in half or thirds with some binding in it.
I remember first finding your channel in 2016 and was into fitness for a good year then. Now I'm getting back into the gym and taking care of my health, but it seems all other fitness influencers are about PEDs for whats gonna make you look the best. Not many people are focused on health, thats why Im glad you're still going strong with the channel and delivering on that based in the science, thats why I had to come back here years later.
I used to think the same way about whole grain: how can it be "whole" if it's been ground up into a fine powder? But the term "whole grain" doesn't come from the grain being whole at all. It comes from the fact that the germ and the bran have not been removed. The fact that it has been crushed into powder does not remove the health benefits. It still contains all the same nutrients and insoluble fiber to help with digestion as a literal whole grain.
@@saschaesken5524 Oxidation is true, it changes the color somewhat I read. But there are techniques to reduce the oxidation time. Can't find any info on it going rancid, where is the proof on that statement.
@@xgmode . Today they use steel and milling pressure is much higher on the grains creating heat that would spoil the fats in the germ if it was not separated before. Careful stone milling does not damage the germ.
@@xgmode Oxidation of the fat in it is what makes it rancid. Whole wheat flour smells full on rancid when it spoils. You have options though--stick it in the freezer when you buy it or grind your own on demand from wholegrains (like with a Komo mill) as the wholegrains last longer.
The cultures in yogurt are definitely alive, I use store bought yogurt to make my own yogurt sometimes. If the cultures were dead then that wouldn’t work. In case your wondering, you take whole milk, dump it in a crock pot (use use an instapot), add some yogurt of your choice, I’ve used nearly every brand, and cook on low for 10ish hours. Once it’s cooled you got yogurt. Watch videos how to make it into Greek yogurt.
My GI doctor told me the same thing and advised me to take probiotic pills instead that are specifically designed to get to the inner gut. I do wonder of any of the probiotics are absorbed along the GI tract, from within the mouth and to before it hits your stomach acids. But I still eat yogurt every morning, because it does provide calcium, protein and some other vitamins/minerals. And I use the plain yogurt and mix it with plain fruit, which should have fiber in them.
1. Bananas (when combined with berries) 2. Big brand whole grain bread 3. Canned soup 4. Dyed additives in foods 5. Farm-raised fish I must have missed 6 and 7
Never followed a complicated diet just ate sensibly! Never been to a gym in 20 years..just been training in crumbling garage doing brutal bodyweight exercises..Still ripped af at 53 years old!!!
So happy to see you getting involved in educating people about the harmful substances that are in the foods. We need more influencers to do this for the sake of all of us. Again, thank you!
Please don't say influencers. Influencers are bullshitters posting for content, likes and followers, usually uneducated people giving advise based on limited knowledge . We need experts, who actually know the topics based on their education, training and science.
Good intention, but unfortunately nutrition is too complicated to boil down to some cheap takeaways like this. Especially when the underlying science hasn't been properly understood
Let's listen closely to what Rhonda is saying. She said that IF you are putting blue berries into your smoothie, don't add a banana. Did she say "Don't add bananas to your smoothies, period"? NO. Personally, blue berries are too delicious to add into my protein shake smoothies. The great blue berry taste gets lost if I do, but I do add 1/2 a banana. Also I add yogurt to my diet not for its bacteria, but because its a great source of the all important PROTEIN we need.
I’ll never stop eating any kind of fruit not even bananas. Great point about combining. Never realized banana could degrade the nutritional value of other fruits when combined.
Heard some of this on another channel. Just saying because Jeff you always amaze me how you cover Everything ! This is just one thing that makes your channel so great ! 💪🏼👍🏼
Awesome to see a Rhonda and Thomas Delauer video reference. It would be awesome to see a sit down video with Thomas Delauer and you, Jeff! I can always keep hoping
Love to see a good talk about diet. I think most people underestimate how important diet is to being healthy. I think I would actually rate it #1, if you had to choose good diet or good exercise but not the other, you would be healthier with good diet and no exercise.
dont think so. Exercise is very important too. your brain cognigtive decline goes slower when you walk alot. more benefits like bowl movement and so forth
Regarding bread, and many other foods that omg no "turn to glucose", an experienced diabetic will tell you "it's not the food it's the meal". You make a turkey sandwich with that same "pulverized" grain bread, add some veg. like lettuce, tomato, etc., and you have a meal that will not spike your blood sugar.
Bro every food has pesticides/antibiotics. But for me, Bananas, Lemon, Oranges, Sardines, nuts, eggs are the holy grail of food. And im exercising, feeling/looking just fine.
There’s tons of videos on IG similar to that covering topics from history to things such as fruit with either totally false information or bits of truth mixed in with it. I do believe people should do their research on what they choose to consume for the sake of their well being.
The issue is that if X is said about a food, then you will find that someone else said the polar opposite of that as well. Clickwhores will say anything that might make people click and consume their content. Once I sat down to 'research' if it's safe to cook with olive oil - e.g. to heat is up. I've spent like 2 hours! I've found scientific studies after scientific studies stating that "yes, it is safe" but I've also found scientific studies after scientific studies saying "no, it is not safe". Frustrating AF.
Honestly, it’s actually post digestion processing. Keeps everything moving correctly. I’m sure there are other ways but bananas are my preferred option for that part of the digestive process.
@@ChrisP3000x wow, you must be psychic. You’re amazing. Jeff needs more people like you commenting on his channel. I’m sure he appreciates you setting everyone straight concerning his content. Good job!!!!
@@DB-zk6td It doesn't take a "psychic" to assume that you didn't watch the video since you are proudly stating your defiance against it with "I'll never stop eating them". But since you are now claiming to have watched the video, and STILL somehow didn't understand the banana segment, .......oh well....Sorry but I just can't help you.
OUCH! Love Athlean X and what you are trying to achieve but I gotta say, you might want to fact check that bit about the dyed salmon ( as plenty of others have already commented on). In spite of your good intentions, I think you might have done more harm than good with that one.
The problem with foodstuffs outside of processed sugar and certain fats is the fact that there are people on social media and youtube claiming x food is fantastic and other people claiming the same food is terrible. Moderation and variety seems to be the best solution.
The supplement brand you endorse has a warning label on it for cadmium, mercury, and arsenic content that you say is below the FDA limit, however why ingest even low doses of these metals when, combined with these same metals that you claim are already unavoidable in so many other foods,must certainly add up to toxic levels. Are we to avoid these other real vegetables so that we ingest a safe level of metals in your powders? I personally avoid all processed powder supplements in favor of real foods. By real, I mean organic foods that grow in nature and are not processed. I’m sure there is some cross contamination with chemical pesticides and chemical fertilizers; so given that unavoidable fact, why add even more cadmium, mercury, and arsenic with your powders?
Amazing content Jeff!! Been watching you for years and using your corrective workouts to fix my shoulders. Have you ever thought about doing a live workout work along?
Thanks Jeff, always super informative! I will definitely pay attention to these points when I visit the US. We don’t have these issues in the Netherlands.
Dr. Lustig has said some things with a lacking scientific evidence already in the past (specially about carbo hydrats). I'm not saying he's wrong about wholegrain bread, but I would be a slightly cautious about that statement.
Lustig has flat out misrepresented studies, he has hardly any integrity. You are wise to take what he says with a pinch of salt (excuse the pun) ruclips.net/video/2zxLok2XrhM/видео.html
Re food coloring.. I was listening to Bill Burr talk about how he now only eats healthy whole foods, and he now sees processed foods as "clown foods" especially candy and junk food. This stuck with me, I now see every package at the supermarket as clown food.
I’m told that what they feed farm-raised salmon to give their flesh that nice salmon-pink color is astaxanthin, the same substance (in krill and small fish) that wild salmon consume. Farmed salmon get their astaxanthin as part of a nutritionally balanced diet, not from artificial dyes.
Jeff, honest question here. I get the point about whole grain bread but...isn't the pulverized version of whole grain still healthier than regular white bread? (albeit maybe not as healthy as the brick that you've mentioned). And as always, thanks for the advice! Happy New Year!
Check the ratios of protein/fiber to sugar. They should both be twice as much as sugar. Ezekiel and Dave’s Killer Bread are the only breads that meet that.
I don’t understand the whole grain issue. Obviously you are not going to eat grain without it being processed to some degree. There is still fiber and minerals and vitamins in whole wheat when compared to white bread. Is he suggesting we don’t eat any bread at all?
@@drewfeld836 no. He is suggesting that you only eat minimally processed wheat. It’s just bunk. White bread was the main food source for a huge portion of European history. It’s only recently that obesity has become an issue. The main culprit is hidden sugars in foods that you wouldn’t expect. Like high fructose corn syrup in sausages.
Your list, especially the salmon topic, is a small, partial list which is why I went whole food plant based and only organic and non-gmo. It is the best way to ensure I am not poisoning myself every time I eat as well as dramatically increase my fiber intake. I am still a muscular 225 pound 6’4 lean 60 year old and couldn’t be happier with my physique and health. Protein intake is not an issue at all. Thanks for the video and raising awareness of the criminal poisoning now present in our food supply. Have Happy and healthy new year everyone.
Remember, there is no such thing as "Atlantic Salmon". Salmon only lives in the Pacific. Atlantic salmon is a name given to farm raised salmon to make it sound more acceptable. Furthermore, the reason to eat salmon is to get the healthy Omega 3 fats, but the Omega 3 fats are actually produced by Krill, and work their way of the food chain to the salmon. The pink color normal to salmon comes from the Krill as well, in the form of Astaxanthin, which not only is pink, it has a variety of good functions. "Atlantic Salmon", or farm raised salmon, does not eat krill, and therefore will not have the same Omega 3, nor will it has Astaxanthin. Instead, it has pink dye.
Your comment was very interesting! thank you very much for that information. Am I right in thinking that in order to find out if salmon is wild salmon or not, one can ask "is that Atlantic salmon?" and if the answer is in the affirmative, then one will know it is farmed salmon? I ask because I find it a little embarrassing to ask directly "is this wild salmon?" it sounds so critical. I'd be VERY interested in your answer if you can spare the time-you obviously know your onions or should I say fish haha and thank you again for an informative comment!!
If you ask a restaurant, they should answer honestly if it is wild-caught. Where you see "Atlantic" salmon is usually in the supermarket, or in frozen foods. They want to avoid saying "farmed salmon", so they use something that sounds better. The other takeaway is the color. Pacific salmon is pink, but not too pink. Farmed fish will be bright pink.
It's interesting. I am catching a lot of wild rainbow trout and it is also pinkish color, and also rich in omega 3. But obviously it is not eating krill in springs and lakes. But I know for sure in many lakes we have daphnia. I used to catch them to feed fish in my aquarium.
I live in Europe and just want to add that here farmed salmon is off-pink but never as pink as wild salmon. Furthermore farmed salmon has usually twice the amount of calories as wild salmon.
We obviously live in a society where people avoid basic facts because it hurts their feelz, .......therefore they resort to strawman fallacies. Sorry, I just can't.
Not just farmed salmon is bad. Wild salmon is too, it has a good nutritional profile but is too rich in heavy metals, like all slowly maturing predator fish. A good alternative is herring, also a fatty fish, but it matures rapidly and is low in the food chain so accumulation of heavy metals isn't much of an issue.
After readng Glucose Revolution, I've changed the order I eat my foods & I have cut out a lot of the super sweet fruits. If I do eat them, its after dinner. Lowering my glucose levels has helped my body to heal, reset & actually lose weight. We've got pie in the freezer from Thanksgiving that we've still not touched because we've changed our eating habits by doing glucose hacks.
If it worked it worked, but the author of that book is known to have misrepresented the science they cite and referenced the same study multiple times, in different ways to make it look like there is more research than there really is.
Hey Jeff, thanks for all the great content! What’s your advice to people being dependent on high doses of antihistamines to treat severe allergies and more specifically chronic hives. This type of medicine supposedly impacts the body’s stress response negatively in such a way that it diminishes the results of training.
If that’s your case or your wife’s case. You need to seek help from an alternative medicine practitioner. It sounds like they might have mold toxicity, it’s not something conventional doctors talk about. Check out Dr. Neil Nathan he has good talks about this sort of thing. Idk for sure if that’s your case but it wouldn’t hurt to look. Good luck with that, I know chronic illness is incredibly difficult to deal with.
@@StormChaserZ If antihistamines, as a class of biochemicals, have a negative impact on training efficacy, then natural antihistamines will also have that effect.
It’s actually really easy. I eat a huge London broil steak with a half a sweet potato for dinner and it keeps me shredded. Try to get full off a big protein source first. Chances are you won’t need anything else. But I get it’s a joke too and society makes things way too complicated. Just keep it simple. Protein and some veggies. Carbs post workout.
Buying food at a store is instantaneous, but they are manufactured or curated products designed to look good and have a long shelf life - many not prioritizing healthy, quality ingredients.
As someone who leaves the house at 5:30am and gets back at 7pm, I don't give a fuck about any of this. I eat whatever I want but I keep a watch on my caloric intake.
I eat the best that I can & I don’t worry about the rest. I’m already limited on my foods/drinks due to severe allergies so I’m not intentionally screwing myself over by eliminating the things that I love or can eat!
Wild Salmon has a rich pinkish red color because they feed on shrimp, krill , etc. which gives their meat the pinkish, red color. Why do I know this? Because I fish in Alaska every year and harvest them on the dock. Farmed salmon is the grayish pale color. Always look for wild caught, not farmed, fresh salmon and check the ingredients label to ensure it doesn't include any mention of Red coloring\dyes.
Very true, and yet predatory fish like salmon do often contain heavy metals and other organic chemical pollutants they get from the ocean (that we pollute every day). Unfortunately, it's getting more difficult every day to find food that is healthy and unpolluted.
@@nomnomyourmom you're seriously comparing bananas with french fries 🤦♂️ By the way, whats wrong with potatoes now? They are healthy carbs. And whats wrong with chicken now? Both are good food sources, as long as you get the proportions right 4/5 chicken 1/5 potatoes 👌
@@orion9k 1. One thing in common, you're prioritizing how they feels in your mouth more than how healthy they are in your body 2. it's not the ingredients, it's the way it's cooked. Funny how you didn't address them being deep fried but the proportion 🤦♂
salmons get their color from eating shrimps, farm raised salmons don’t eat shrimps so their color is naturally white/greyish, but since nobody would buy gray salmon in the supermarket they add carotenoids (the orange color what also shrimp have) to the fish feed, which is either artificially made or from natural sources
Hey Jeff, I'm a big fan of yours, and have been for many years. But this video leaves me scratching my head. Some of the stuff you talk about in this video is questionable. I can understand your desire to dial in your personal nutrition plan. But you also need to consider what the average viewer will take away from this. Now they're seeing that things like bananas, salmon, yogurt, and whole grains are bad. But in reality, those things are MUCH healthier than the ultra-processed foods most people are eating. Anyway, wishing you guys a great new year!
Let’s clear up some misconceptions about the banana 🍌! Bananas are very healthy! However they contain sugar! The longer a banana sits around and ripens the more it turns into sugar! I buy bananas slightly green. The more yellow, the more brown it turns the more sugar it has!
I'm not Jeff, but frozen vegetables and fruit are typically frozen at their peak freshness and ripeness, rather than fresh produce, which is typically picked well before it ripens because it needs to travel and not be spoiled upon arrival at a grocery store. So in theory, frozen can have more nutrients/antioxidants in it. If you garden on your own, then your fresh veggies that you harvest yourself when they've ripened naturally on the plant are your best bet though. If you're talking about a typical frozen veggie mix, like a bag of carrots, peas and corn, there's probably nothing wrong with that, but you do need variety in your diet for your best gut health (which affects so many other aspects of your health), so don't rely on it alone on a daily basis for getting your veggies in. Your healthy gut bacteria need various fiber and resistant starches to keep their populations up. They don't all feed on the same things. If you want to read about the importance of variety in your diet for gut health, then I'd recommend Fiber Fueled by Will Bulsiewicz, MD, MSCI. I've read many books on (mainly plant based whole foods) nutrition, and this one motivated me to broaden my already wide variety of foods that I eat and not get too lazy with my cooking. Eating well does take effort, so every bit of motivation helps imo!
All, strawberries are good for you as long as they're ORGANIC. Video snippet Jeff included herein noted "inorganic strawberries". Those of you eating blueberries, or any thin-skin fruit or veggie, that aren't organically farmed are also ingesting gobs of things you're better off without. Organic farming prohibits the use of synthetic pesticides, herbicides, and fertilizers. You take a hit in your pocket book as organic is more expensive but it'll be worth it on many levels. Easy to research on ur own :)
@@Jemgirly isn’t freezing better? Maybe if you eat it daily it might be a better option because it does stick together in freezer. Is that your reason for refrigeration?
Its so funny that you mention your story about white bean soup. I had a favorite thai food place when I was living abroad that I went to every other week for a wok with some tasty vegetables on saturday nights and some egg and bean curd mixed in. I went to colleagues house for a homecooked meal the friday night prior and got a slow creaping food poisoning along with half the guests in attendance! Some of whom I saw when we ended up in the neighborhood clinic together, it was the worst case of food poisoning I'd ever had in my life with a day and a half of full heaving, dehydration, vomitting bathroom..and to make it worse it was over 100 degrees outside and I had no air conditioning in my apartment. While it wasn't the thai food that gave me the food poisoning, it was the first thing that came up...all of it, burning with its curry flavor out of my throat.... to this day, what was once one of my favorite foods I will never order it again.
Great video mate, informative as always. Superstars included: Rhonda Patrick and glorious Rob Lustig (guy responsible for fixing my metabolic health!). GJ!
Condensed version: 1. Don’t mix bananas in berry smoothies because a chemical reaction occurs that destroys the vitamins in berries. Why this vitamin is necessary? Video does not explain 2. Whole grain bread isn’t ‘whole’ because the grains are pulverized to make flour. This leads to the starches being exposed and ultimately more sugar in your body when ingested. This leads to insulin spikes. Video says long term insulin spikes lead to disease but does not explain how; although one should note the body uses insulin to convert excess sugars in the body into fat which is problematic and what we want to avoid 3. Soups due to their high sodium content which extends their shelf life. Jeff discusses the adverse effects eating canned soups have on him but these effects may vary on the individual 4. Synthetic food dyes due to possible health issues they pose 5. Farm raised fish due to their diets consisting synthetic food dyes 5. Yogurt is a waste of money if you’re trying to improve your gut health and you have not provided this bacteria with an environment to survive. You need to incorporate fiber into your diet as well, which processed food do not have
1. food with high PPO activity (banana, apple, avocado...) decrease Flavan-3-ols in food (kale, berries, yogurt...) Flavan-3-ols are bioactive compounds found in a variety of fruits and vegetables that have been linked to positive health benefits. 2. Choose the real whole grain bread in speacialty health food store or whole food. 5. The pink color normal to salmon comes from the Krill as well, in the form of Astaxanthin. Farm raised salmons are feed with this so it's okay to eat them. 6. Jeff stills eats yogurt, prebiotic and probiotic, you need both
Good advice Jeff--best to remain practical. One of the EMTs I know had this story about this guy that had almost exclusively a banana diet for a couple months. He ended up having this health emergency and the EMT got there and there and he said there was nothing in his truck that could save this guy's life. Anything can be harmful if taken to excess.
It's baffling that people seriously think that eating only 1 food exclusively is going to be healthy... there are no foods I'm aware of that contain sufficient amounts of everything we need.
@2:12 "... and what's in every single smoothie they make?" The answer here is shredded fiber. Fiber that would otherwise (when whole) help regulate fructose absorption. Smoothies cause sugar spikes followed by insuline spikes and off goes the chain reaction...
When I was a boy, peanut butter and jelly sandos were a staple in my lunch box. One day after eating a P&J, I had a violent fit of throwing up. To this day, in my 60s, I still get nauseated looking at or thinking about P&J. PTSD is a good way to describe the reaction, It never occurred to be consider it PTSD. I don't like peanut butter (tho I can handle peanuts) and I can't stand jelly or jam.
I like to freeze banana sections and berries then add some to a cup and dump some walnuts and high fructose yogurt on top. Most decadent shirt when it starts going into frozen mush. Maybe adding some matcha green tea can counter some of the ill effects.
1) I never liked banana in my smoothies. 2) When I do have bread, I prefer the sprouted grain that's kept in the freezer section of the grocery...like Ezekiel or Sprouted Power (which is also higher in protein content). I always keep it frozen at home and just toast it (Air Fryer oven) to serve. 3) I might have a can of Progresso from time to time but, eh, it's rare. 4)My hair is generally the only thing I use dye for. 5) Who can afford $20/lb fish?! 🐟🎣😅 6)I love yogurt but I never really consumed it for any other reason than it's protein content. I love Skyr or a really good thick Greek if I can't get Skyr. ✌️ thanks Jeff!!

Unfortunately, nutritional advice changes quite a bit overtime.
I just try to stay away from processed food and simple sugars and that seems to work.
That’s it. Just make your food yourself and don’t eat any artificial sweeteners and you are on a good way
@@kajagoogoo9613
How so?
@@Denidrakes69 Bill Gates and the WHO are pushing for a meatless society i.e., synthetic meat and insects for YOU to eat, not them. You have an internet connection, do some homework, check prices and nutritional values of the crap they want to shove down our throats. It's an eye opener.
True, this the 20% that makes 80% impact to your health
🙏🏼 amen to that brother
Every diet and every exercise will contradict one another if you watch enough videos and or read literature on. I prefer common sense diet and exercise. Excercise regularly, don’t over eat, stay away from sodas and fast food, drink lots of water, surround yourself with positive like minded people and you’ll have a good starting point for a healthy lifestyle.
Yeah bro. Simplicity scales!
Hi Jeff,
I feel it’s important to speak out here. Im a huge fan and have been following your advice for years, as I'm sure so have millions of other people. I read the actual study about bananas in smoothies, and it has been misquoted a lot.
The study did not mix bananas and berry’s together in a smoothie. There were two separate smoothies prepared. While participants did see a reduction in Polyphenols after consuming the banana smoothie, there is no direct evidence to say adding the banana with berries has a detrimental effect. “it is possible to extend this observation to suggest that drinks, and potentially other food preparations made with blended, pureed, or pulverized fruits and vegetables containing high PPO activity, could also limit the bioavailability of flavan-3-ols and, potentially, other polyphenolic bioactives.”
Preparing a smoothie with berries and banana would be easy to include in the study, but likely did not fit the authors narrative, as can be seen from the language used above.
FYI ,the ingredients for the smoothies in the article are:
“The banana smoothie was prepared with 177 g of ripe, frozen bananas and 240 g of almond milk. The mixed berry smoothie was prepared with 50 g each of strawberries, blueberries, blackberries and raspberries, 120 g of almond milk, 70 g of water, 105 g of crushed ice, and 95 g of yogurt. “
This is really interesting! Maybe Jeff can verify this and then pin your comment or his own comment clarifying that information!
I was going to comment on the same thing. Thank you for this!
It's not just that. "wild-caught fish is always gonna be better for you" - strong NOPE.
Fish in the wild are being poisoned, nonstop. By all the toxins, heavy metals and what not that we produce, it all ends up in the rivers, lakes and oceans.
That's why doctors have been urging people to eat fish with caution for the past three decades or so. "fish is healthy" used to be true.
Hasn't been for decades. Nowadays eating fish more than once a month is considered risky, because of all the poison you consume with the fish. If you go over that once a month amount you're at risk of accumulating so much of the heavy metals etc. that you're body is no longer able to get rid of it.
Fish farms on the other hand have control over their water quality. You can see already where I'm going with this.
The problem with the salmon is the coloring, as explained in the video, but if you compare it to wild salmon you get all those other toxins.
So maybe buy fish from a farm where they don't use coloring and avoid wild-caught fish.
Fiber is the other thing. The jury's actually still out on that one. That fiber is generally good for us might actually be untrue.
There have been studies on people with digestive troubles, chronic diseases etc. where a certain percentage of the people tested stopped showing symptoms when the fiber content in their meals was reduced or even set to zero.
So obviously there's something going on there that isn't as easy as "fiber is good for your gut"...
Indeed, people tend to overthinking everything. Just take it and enjoy it. It's way better than taking nothing.
as someone who has been eating mashed bananas with blueberries everyday for the past 6 years, I appreciate this comment!!!!
When it comes down to the science of food, imo I think it's important to differentiate data from a study and the practicality of its application.
Avoiding whole grain bread because the grain are pulverized doesn't change the fiber content (aside from removing some of the husk), in the same way blending up blueberries into a smoothing doesn't. Your body still has to digest it through chemical means, there just in smaller pieces. The amount of fiber you're missing out on eating the husk is likely small anyway, so again, it's less of a big deal than it's made out to be.
Food dyes are really only an issue to people that might be allergic to them. Most of the population wouldn't even know they were added, because the dyes that are used now are the ones that are tested for consumption. It's really not as scary as it sounds.
If you're skipping out on yogurt because the probiotics might not actually work... you're missing out on all the other benefits it brings, like being a good protein and packed full of micronutrients.
Understanding what you put into your body is great, but if you knew the potential effect of everything that you ate, you'd be eating nothing. Just relax and find what suits your needs. With the exception of how much sodium can be in canned good, it's perfectly fine to eat farmed salmon or yogurt or bread etc. without worrying about destroying your health in a permeant way.
Nutrition must be one of the most problematic scientific areas that exist because what was considered harmful in the past would no longer be and what is considered beneficial today would already be reviewed : If we were to take these studies "to the letter" then we would eat nothing
Just my (layman's) opinion: We should reduce our intake of processed foods (especially ultra-processed foods) and include more natural foods
I've been eating 2 to 4 pounds of strawberries per week for a couple of years now, and I've been pest free the whole time... so I've got that goin' for me.

@@BrofUJu I'm not sure how this fits with my joke.... errrrr.... post, but I am intrigued. Would you care to enlightning me?
It’s important to note that food standards are different in every country. Australia, where I’m from, has very high food standards. We aren’t allowed to have the sodium, fat or sugar levels that the US does. We also don’t strip fibre out of our food to the same degree and we don’t use corn syrup.
I’m not suggesting that the statements made here are incorrect, just to be aware of the differences
+1000 friggin hell mate - x3 is getting to vegemite level - only high salt things i eat are sauerkraut and miso ( 300 is max level for any other thing ) - I make my on sauerkraut - but I have brought a polish one - sodium is not too bad - buy lower Na. miso paste as well - thing is I used healthier things like this to add salt - with miso - wait till my soup or whatever cools down a bit to add miso . I'm a kiwi - don't eat potato chips ( crisps ) anymore - but they can now only have say 350mg of Sodium - weird when other stuff is much more - Kellogs cornflakes used to be over 1000 years ago - like why ?? . My son likes Tikka masala - the sauce I buy has low sodium , sugar and saturated fat - seems to sell - so society is changing - as long ago - people would think that bland and thrown in some sugar , ghee/butter and salt . Baby food is really strict - Don't miss salt - cut massively back on sugar in products - now my 70-80% dark chocolate is too sweet ! so it's 90 or 95% - mostly berries and less of other fruits - mangoes are sweet as - banana I will put on a german style toast bread - so good fibre/carbs ratio to stop GI hit of banana - don't do smoothies anymore
You also live in a police state and have no freedom. Im glad your government is taking good care of you.

Just a heads up in salmon. The natural colour of salmon is provided by the astaxanthin present on their diet (shrinks and so). Farm salmon doesn't eat that but they usually get their colour by the addition of astaxanthin into their food and not by food dyes.
Ummmmmmmm
Exactly. For example, the baltic salmon primarily eats herring and sprat, not crustaceans which get their red color from the astaxanthin in their food. Therefore the color of the baltic salmon is much more pale than the salmon species that eat primarily crustaceans.
True
I was literally about to make this point! I love Jeff’s workouts, but I don’t agree with all of his diet advice.
Great point
+ Wild caught fish might have higher levels of heavy metal contamination in their bodies. Honestly a very questionable advice by Jeff.
I usually love your content but have a couple corrections for you. Farm-raised salmon is fed astaxanthin for color and health, which is the same thing that wild salmon get from shrimp they eat. Farmed salmon aren't fed shrimp, so the farmers supply the astaxanthin from cultured sources instead. It's an important nutrient for salmon and is good for us too. It's not a synthetic food dye. Second, about the pro-biotics, the ones in your yogurt are alive. They make the milk into yogurt. It's kept refrigerated the whole time it goes from the factory to the store. I'm a little skeptical about probiotic pills, which I think is what the doctor was talking about. Pills aren't kept refrigerated and may have spent time in a hot truck and gotten cooked.
Well partially true. Fist of all every single yogurt (and most dairy products) are pasteurized and heat kills most of good stuff including bacteria.
My advice is get raw milk and ferment it yourself. I grown on raw milk and home made dairy products.
What they do with yogurt is they add artificial bacterias after they pasteurized it.
It is same "yogurt" as the milk from the shelf is "milk". Real milk can be fermented. Try it with thus crap from shop. No chance.
Fermented food is best way to got your gut in order.
In Poland we ferment nearly everything, as before supermarkets and fridges it was one of the ways to preserve food.
Beetroot, cabbage, gherkins, Peppers, garlic, onions and way more.
Second best option is sprouts and also mushrooms. Best sprouts are from hemp, rye and spelt. At least for me.
As far as it goes for probiotics, the really good ones are refrigerated in transport and at shop shelfs. But these are not cheap.
Good probiotics will not only give you name of the strain but also the code (usually numbers and letters).
Secondly probiotics can be processed exactly same as yeasts, so they are activated once in the body, and not necessarily have to be refrigerated.
Bare in mind that prebiotics which are mentioned by doc in the video, are food for your microbiome, but if you lived horrible life (and in addition has been born through cesars cut), you will not have lot of important strains in your gut. So you can eat as much prebiotic as you want, but you will not grow them. Then you can either try to take probiotics, or eventually get microbiotic transplant where essentially they will put someone else poop in your back end. 😅
again no matter what the topic.... it is still jeffs biceps that are the highlightof the video. (0:14). great guns jeff. 💪💪💪
Jeff, everything in excess is bad, I don't understand why no one talks about ultra-processed foods that are harmful, because they talk badly about fruits, the problem is not the fruits, the problem is the excesses, the problem is that people don't take care of themselves, The problem is that now exercising is fatphobia anyway...
that is completely false. Good things in large amounts just get better. Cut out the trash completely, don't moderate it. Of course I am talking ideally. Most people, myself included, are too weak to go through that cold turkey period. Just really don't buy the "everything in moderation" view.
@@krisp1871everything in moderation is at least healthier than eating all terrible foods in excess. And unfortunately it’s a lot cheaper and affordable to buy and eat the “bad” food in today’s economy.
Felipe, that's a good point. Most people don't need to hear that "bananas are not optimal." They need to hear that ultra-processed food is REALLY UNHEALTHY. Because most people eat ultra-processed food every day. Bananas may not be the perfect food, but it's 100X healthier than eating a McDonald's cheeseburger.
@@krisp1871 "This is completely false" lmao I love how you seem to think that you're the gatekeeper of what's true -- what an awful reply
@@krisp1871No, nearly everything becomes deadly in big enough amounts, even water... Of course overeating stuff is bad. Even if it's good food. It is often way harder to overeat good food though but some people manage it. No limit works for many but not for us all. Or not without the right restrictions. I probably wouldn't overeat meat or protein if I ONLY ate meat though I still can imagine situations where it may have some chance... (I can't overeat it to the point of real problems, it's just unnecessarily much. Some people manage to go too far.) It's easy to overeat Vitamin D too, for some of us at least. It is fat soluble and liver has a lot of it. And so on.
Regarding the banana study, the antioxidant that was analyzed wasnt even one high in concentration in blueberries. Micthevegan does a great breakdown of why the study is full of shit
Doesn't surprise me. Lustig's rant about wholegrains is mostly idiotic too.
you mean I shouldn't get scientific advice from social media? hmmm...
How long does the this interaction between banana's and blueberries take?
Farmed salmon are not ‘dyed’, their colour comes from a caratenoid pigment astaxanthin added to their feed. Its exactly the same stuff that wild fish get from their natural diet. It’s an antioxidant and has health benefits.
Wild salmon and trout caught from areas where they can’t feed on crustaceans also have white flesh.
Farmed salmon are bred in dirty water and are full of diseases which is why the farmers have to add antibiotics and other rubbish to their feed. Best just to avoid farmed salmon completely.
The only safe Farmed Salmon is from Norway. I wouldn't touch the other frankinfishes
Also, isn’t wild salmon supposed to be higher in mercury and thus, in that way, less healthy?
Dude, that's exactly what he said.... 🤦♀
I appreciate the intro, but you have to remember that while bodies everywhere are the same(not 100% true, but almost), laws and regulations in different countries are not. It is not legal to spray with pesticides that way here. We have entire departments of government that must be allowed to conduct surprise visits and collect samples to see if the crops follow regulations.
Regarding whole grain bread. What's meant by it is that you use the entire grain, not that it is whole. In many recipes you only want part of the grain because it needs to be fine. I don't know how easy it is to get in the US, but in Denmark we actually use kinda "whole" grains in our rye bread. The bread are essentially rye grains cut in half or thirds with some binding in it.
I remember first finding your channel in 2016 and was into fitness for a good year then. Now I'm getting back into the gym and taking care of my health, but it seems all other fitness influencers are about PEDs for whats gonna make you look the best. Not many people are focused on health, thats why Im glad you're still going strong with the channel and delivering on that based in the science, thats why I had to come back here years later.
I used to think the same way about whole grain: how can it be "whole" if it's been ground up into a fine powder? But the term "whole grain" doesn't come from the grain being whole at all. It comes from the fact that the germ and the bran have not been removed. The fact that it has been crushed into powder does not remove the health benefits. It still contains all the same nutrients and insoluble fiber to help with digestion as a literal whole grain.
germ starts oxidizing and going rancid
@@saschaesken5524 Oxidation is true, it changes the color somewhat I read. But there are techniques to reduce the oxidation time. Can't find any info on it going rancid, where is the proof on that statement.
@@xgmode . Today they use steel and milling pressure is much higher on the grains creating heat that would spoil the fats in the germ if it was not separated before.
Careful stone milling does not damage the germ.
@@xgmode Oxidation of the fat in it is what makes it rancid. Whole wheat flour smells full on rancid when it spoils. You have options though--stick it in the freezer when you buy it or grind your own on demand from wholegrains (like with a Komo mill) as the wholegrains last longer.
Well it should simply say wholemeal bread and that's it. Whole grain is just marketing trick.
The cultures in yogurt are definitely alive, I use store bought yogurt to make my own yogurt sometimes. If the cultures were dead then that wouldn’t work. In case your wondering, you take whole milk, dump it in a crock pot (use use an instapot), add some yogurt of your choice, I’ve used nearly every brand, and cook on low for 10ish hours. Once it’s cooled you got yogurt. Watch videos how to make it into Greek yogurt.
It dies inside you by the time it reaches its supposed destination.
He explained it wrong lmao. He made it sound like the cultures in the yoghurt are already dead.
Yogurt and all dairy products cause inflammation to your body. Milk is for babies not for growth up men.
They're alive, but not nearly enough per serving size.
My GI doctor told me the same thing and advised me to take probiotic pills instead that are specifically designed to get to the inner gut. I do wonder of any of the probiotics are absorbed along the GI tract, from within the mouth and to before it hits your stomach acids.
But I still eat yogurt every morning, because it does provide calcium, protein and some other vitamins/minerals. And I use the plain yogurt and mix it with plain fruit, which should have fiber in them.
1. Bananas (when combined with berries)
2. Big brand whole grain bread
3. Canned soup
4. Dyed additives in foods
5. Farm-raised fish
I must have missed 6 and 7
Bananas in smoothies to be specific. Eating bananas by itself is fine.
@@greens7933 bananas with berries to be hyper specific
Edited
That's not going to stop me from eating fish
Yogurt without prebiotics
6 and 7 are almost the same: yogurt and probiotics. People eating yogurt thinking they have probiotics. When, in fact, they need prebiotics (fibers).
Whole grain bread: what are you left with if you pound it into flour? For starters, quite a bit of fiber that you don't get with white bread.

So happy to see you getting involved in educating people about the harmful substances that are in the foods.
We need more influencers to do this for the sake of all of us. Again, thank you!
Please don't say influencers. Influencers are bullshitters posting for content, likes and followers, usually uneducated people giving advise based on limited knowledge . We need experts, who actually know the topics based on their education, training and science.
Good intention, but unfortunately nutrition is too complicated to boil down to some cheap takeaways like this. Especially when the underlying science hasn't been properly understood
@@jambojackso that means I should stop eating bananas ?
@@8megamario No that means you should be scared of eating bananas because a social media fitness influencer says so.
@@8megamario Hell no, Bananas are a great energy source. I ain't taking this video seriously because it's a load of rubbish.
Let's listen closely to what Rhonda is saying. She said that IF you are putting blue berries into your smoothie, don't add a banana. Did she say "Don't add bananas to your smoothies, period"? NO. Personally, blue berries are too delicious to add into my protein shake smoothies. The great blue berry taste gets lost if I do, but I do add 1/2 a banana.
Also I add yogurt to my diet not for its bacteria, but because its a great source of the all important PROTEIN we need.
The coloring in farm raised salmon (astaxanthin ) is a potent antioxidant. Blew my mind when I found this out.
I’ll never stop eating any kind of fruit not even bananas. Great point about combining. Never realized banana could degrade the nutritional value of other fruits when combined.
Heard some of this on another channel. Just saying because Jeff you always amaze me how you cover Everything ! This is just one thing that makes your channel so great ! 💪🏼👍🏼
Awesome to see a Rhonda and Thomas Delauer video reference.
It would be awesome to see a sit down video with Thomas Delauer and you, Jeff!
I can always keep hoping
Love to see a good talk about diet. I think most people underestimate how important diet is to being healthy. I think I would actually rate it #1, if you had to choose good diet or good exercise but not the other, you would be healthier with good diet and no exercise.
dont think so. Exercise is very important too. your brain cognigtive decline goes slower when you walk alot. more benefits like bowl movement and so forth
and strenght training is another kaliber. increased bone mass. muscle strenght alot of beneficials too again
This guy is literally the best. Heavily researched, honest, high integrity.
Regarding bread, and many other foods that omg no "turn to glucose", an experienced diabetic will tell you "it's not the food it's the meal". You make a turkey sandwich with that same "pulverized" grain bread, add some veg. like lettuce, tomato, etc., and you have a meal that will not spike your blood sugar.
Bro every food has pesticides/antibiotics. But for me, Bananas, Lemon, Oranges, Sardines, nuts, eggs are the holy grail of food. And im exercising, feeling/looking just fine.
There’s tons of videos on IG similar to that covering topics from history to things such as fruit with either totally false information or bits of truth mixed in with it. I do believe people should do their research on what they choose to consume for the sake of their well being.
The issue is that if X is said about a food, then you will find that someone else said the polar opposite of that as well. Clickwhores will say anything that might make people click and consume their content.
Once I sat down to 'research' if it's safe to cook with olive oil - e.g. to heat is up. I've spent like 2 hours! I've found scientific studies after scientific studies stating that "yes, it is safe" but I've also found scientific studies after scientific studies saying "no, it is not safe". Frustrating AF.
Banana is excellent for digestion. I’ll never stop eating them.
How do bananas help digestion, specifically?
Honestly, it’s actually post digestion processing. Keeps everything moving correctly. I’m sure there are other ways but bananas are my preferred option for that part of the digestive process.

"You are whatever you eat ate". Wow, Jeff!! It's so logical. Thanks again from a healthier 60-year-old thanks to your program.
The problem with foodstuffs outside of processed sugar and certain fats is the fact that there are people on social media and youtube claiming x food is fantastic and other people claiming the same food is terrible.
Moderation and variety seems to be the best solution.
This!
Love this type of nutritional video that goes mechanistic.
The supplement brand you endorse has a warning label on it for cadmium, mercury, and arsenic content that you say is below the FDA limit, however why ingest even low doses of these metals when, combined with these same metals that you claim are already unavoidable in so many other foods,must certainly add up to toxic levels. Are we to avoid these other real vegetables so that we ingest a safe level of metals in your powders? I personally avoid all processed powder supplements in favor of real foods. By real, I mean organic foods that grow in nature and are not processed. I’m sure there is some cross contamination with chemical pesticides and chemical fertilizers; so given that unavoidable fact, why add even more cadmium, mercury, and arsenic with your powders?
Amazing content Jeff!! Been watching you for years and using your corrective workouts to fix my shoulders. Have you ever thought about doing a live workout work along?
This channel never fail to deliver after all these years. I wish you a great 2024!!! Love your straightforward way of teaching stuff!

Alphabet soup is fine, but only the consonants. You should remove the vowels for better health (include or remove Y at your discretion).
Yeah i personally remove the Y
Wild caught salmon is naturally pink. Only farm raised can be grey. However farm raised can also be naturally pink if "wild" diet is included.
Thanks Jeff, always super informative!
I will definitely pay attention to these points when I visit the US.
We don’t have these issues in the Netherlands.
You don’t have bananas or whole grain bread in the Netherlands?
@@benjamincastillo966 we have, but the use of pesticides, and the import thereof, are strictly regulated in the EU.
I’ve avoided all of these since seeing this video. Thanks Jeff!
Good one!😂

Freaking bot comment
Dr. Lustig has said some things with a lacking scientific evidence already in the past (specially about carbo hydrats). I'm not saying he's wrong about wholegrain bread, but I would be a slightly cautious about that statement.
Lustig has flat out misrepresented studies, he has hardly any integrity. You are wise to take what he says with a pinch of salt (excuse the pun)

Re food coloring.. I was listening to Bill Burr talk about how he now only eats healthy whole foods, and he now sees processed foods as "clown foods" especially candy and junk food. This stuck with me, I now see every package at the supermarket as clown food.
I’m told that what they feed farm-raised salmon to give their flesh that nice salmon-pink color is astaxanthin, the same substance (in krill and small fish) that wild salmon consume. Farmed salmon get their astaxanthin as part of a nutritionally balanced diet, not from artificial dyes.
Jeff, honest question here. I get the point about whole grain bread but...isn't the pulverized version of whole grain still healthier than regular white bread? (albeit maybe not as healthy as the brick that you've mentioned). And as always, thanks for the advice! Happy New Year!
Whole grain is still a good source of fiber. So I wouldn't eliminate it. But maybe try to find some whole grains that are minimally processed.
Humans have been not just consuming but subsisting on white bread for so very long. I think the danger of white bread is so massively overstated
Check the ratios of protein/fiber to sugar. They should both be twice as much as sugar. Ezekiel and Dave’s Killer Bread are the only breads that meet that.
I don’t understand the whole grain issue. Obviously you are not going to eat grain without it being processed to some degree. There is still fiber and minerals and vitamins in whole wheat when compared to white bread. Is he suggesting we don’t eat any bread at all?
@@drewfeld836 no. He is suggesting that you only eat minimally processed wheat. It’s just bunk. White bread was the main food source for a huge portion of European history. It’s only recently that obesity has become an issue. The main culprit is hidden sugars in foods that you wouldn’t expect. Like high fructose corn syrup in sausages.
Thanks for the guide Jeff. Would like to see more diet info on your page
Or maybe he should get a dietitian to give diet advice. I don`t go to the mechanic to get advice on my banking.
Your list, especially the salmon topic, is a small, partial list which is why I went whole food plant based and only organic and non-gmo. It is the best way to ensure I am not poisoning myself every time I eat as well as dramatically increase my fiber intake. I am still a muscular 225 pound 6’4 lean 60 year old and couldn’t be happier with my physique and health. Protein intake is not an issue at all. Thanks for the video and raising awareness of the criminal poisoning now present in our food supply. Have Happy and healthy new year everyone.
I won't eat farm raised salmon. Wild caught Pacific salmon only..
I LOVE your videos Jeff- THE ENTIRE COUNTRY needs to hear them!
When he said 'inorganic' he meant non-organically grown. Strawberries are indeed organic material, whether they're sprayed with pesticides or not.
Can you show an example of real whole grain bread, like the brand you buy?
I don't think one can buy this industrialy, maybe local baker
@unneomexaenlacocina9380 oh great 😂 I guess I need to find a local bakery then 😅

Remember, there is no such thing as "Atlantic Salmon". Salmon only lives in the Pacific. Atlantic salmon is a name given to farm raised salmon to make it sound more acceptable. Furthermore, the reason to eat salmon is to get the healthy Omega 3 fats, but the Omega 3 fats are actually produced by Krill, and work their way of the food chain to the salmon. The pink color normal to salmon comes from the Krill as well, in the form of Astaxanthin, which not only is pink, it has a variety of good functions. "Atlantic Salmon", or farm raised salmon, does not eat krill, and therefore will not have the same Omega 3, nor will it has Astaxanthin. Instead, it has pink dye.
Your comment was very interesting! thank you very much for that information. Am I right in thinking that in order to find out if salmon is wild salmon or not, one can ask "is that Atlantic salmon?" and if the answer is in the affirmative, then one will know it is farmed salmon? I ask because I find it a little embarrassing to ask directly "is this wild salmon?" it sounds so critical.
I'd be VERY interested in your answer if you can spare the time-you obviously know your onions or should I say fish haha and thank you again for an informative comment!!
If you ask a restaurant, they should answer honestly if it is wild-caught. Where you see "Atlantic" salmon is usually in the supermarket, or in frozen foods. They want to avoid saying "farmed salmon", so they use something that sounds better. The other takeaway is the color. Pacific salmon is pink, but not too pink. Farmed fish will be bright pink.
It's interesting. I am catching a lot of wild rainbow trout and it is also pinkish color, and also rich in omega 3. But obviously it is not eating krill in springs and lakes. But I know for sure in many lakes we have daphnia. I used to catch them to feed fish in my aquarium.
I live in Europe and just want to add that here farmed salmon is off-pink but never as pink as wild salmon. Furthermore farmed salmon has usually twice the amount of calories as wild salmon.
I wouldn’t feed farmed salmon to a dog
We live in a society where people eat so much shit but the real villains are the bananas. Sorry, I just can't
Real villains are uneducated kids like you who would rather whine and make stuff up than learning more
Jeff: Here's why you shouldn't have banana and berries together
Uneducated kid: real villains are the bananas boo hoo
We obviously live in a society where people avoid basic facts because it hurts their feelz, .......therefore they resort to strawman fallacies.
Sorry, I just can't.
Very true. FDA is so overwhelmed they cannot keep up with the influx of new products and the ambiguity that exists in food marketing terms.
It’s a captured institution anyway (like all government monopolies)
Not just farmed salmon is bad. Wild salmon is too, it has a good nutritional profile but is too rich in heavy metals, like all slowly maturing predator fish. A good alternative is herring, also a fatty fish, but it matures rapidly and is low in the food chain so accumulation of heavy metals isn't much of an issue.
After readng Glucose Revolution, I've changed the order I eat my foods & I have cut out a lot of the super sweet fruits. If I do eat them, its after dinner. Lowering my glucose levels has helped my body to heal, reset & actually lose weight. We've got pie in the freezer from Thanksgiving that we've still not touched because we've changed our eating habits by doing glucose hacks.
If it worked it worked, but the author of that book is known to have misrepresented the science they cite and referenced the same study multiple times, in different ways to make it look like there is more research than there really is.
This is all common sense actually. I will still eat bananas , just not with berries. Thank you for all the great videos
Yeah then you go and have a pizza, oh FFS stop already
@@DC180 Especially a deep dish one
But no strawberries , that's all good@@bertapodaca7111
Banana: ok… but then WHEN is the good time to eat it ?
Most of the time eating fruits and vegetales before proteins helps to absorb the fiber
@@unneomexaenlacocina9380 thank you !
Very interesting. As long as you find what works for you - great.
I'm not that healthy I just check this channel just to see how unhealthy I am and this list is like my whole diet when I am trying to be healthy.
Avoiding a lot of foods is very restrictive, i prefer a balanced diet
Hey Jeff, thanks for all the great content!
What’s your advice to people being dependent on high doses of antihistamines to treat severe allergies and more specifically chronic hives. This type of medicine supposedly impacts the body’s stress response negatively in such a way that it diminishes the results of training.
If that’s your case or your wife’s case. You need to seek help from an alternative medicine practitioner. It sounds like they might have mold toxicity, it’s not something conventional doctors talk about. Check out Dr. Neil Nathan he has good talks about this sort of thing. Idk for sure if that’s your case but it wouldn’t hurt to look. Good luck with that, I know chronic illness is incredibly difficult to deal with.
Look into Stinging nettle root/leaf, quercetin, and bromelain. Natural antihistamines 👍
@@StormChaserZ If antihistamines, as a class of biochemicals, have a negative impact on training efficacy, then natural antihistamines will also have that effect.
Why's eating so hard 💀
Cause these organisations keep tricking us
Corporate greed
It’s really easy if we go to the basics, the carnivore diet.
It’s actually really easy. I eat a huge London broil steak with a half a sweet potato for dinner and it keeps me shredded. Try to get full off a big protein source first. Chances are you won’t need anything else. But I get it’s a joke too and society makes things way too complicated. Just keep it simple. Protein and some veggies. Carbs post workout.
Buying food at a store is instantaneous, but they are manufactured or curated products designed to look good and have a long shelf life - many not prioritizing healthy, quality ingredients.
As someone who leaves the house at 5:30am and gets back at 7pm, I don't give a fuck about any of this. I eat whatever I want but I keep a watch on my caloric intake.
Then why even click on this
To whine your throat out!?
I eat the best that I can & I don’t worry about the rest. I’m already limited on my foods/drinks due to severe allergies so I’m not intentionally screwing myself over by eliminating the things that I love or can eat!
Wild Salmon has a rich pinkish red color because they feed on shrimp, krill , etc. which gives their meat the pinkish, red color. Why do I know this? Because I fish in Alaska every year and harvest them on the dock. Farmed salmon is the grayish pale color. Always look for wild caught, not farmed, fresh salmon and check the ingredients label to ensure it doesn't include any mention of Red coloring\dyes.
Very true, and yet predatory fish like salmon do often contain heavy metals and other organic chemical pollutants they get from the ocean (that we pollute every day). Unfortunately, it's getting more difficult every day to find food that is healthy and unpolluted.
You will never make me stop eating banana 🤣 They go perfect with my protein smoothie together with organic wild blueberries and strawberries.
Gotta live a little dude! relax and eat actual food. banana is a great source of potassium
@@SmartBells did anyone say to stop eating banana? how about a great source watching the vid?
satisfy your mouth > being healthier 🤣fried chickens go perfect with French fried but I ain't trading my health for that sh
@@nomnomyourmom you're seriously comparing bananas with french fries 🤦♂️
By the way, whats wrong with potatoes now? They are healthy carbs. And whats wrong with chicken now? Both are good food sources, as long as you get the proportions right 4/5 chicken 1/5 potatoes 👌
@@orion9k
1. One thing in common, you're prioritizing how they feels in your mouth more than how healthy they are in your body
2. it's not the ingredients, it's the way it's cooked. Funny how you didn't address them being deep fried but the proportion 🤦♂
Ive been an advocate for organic food for years, but always find the source.
salmons get their color from eating shrimps, farm raised salmons don’t eat shrimps so their color is naturally white/greyish, but since nobody would buy gray salmon in the supermarket they add carotenoids (the orange color what also shrimp have) to the fish feed, which is either artificially made or from natural sources
Thanks for the heads up. Much respect 💙
Hey Jeff, I'm a big fan of yours, and have been for many years. But this video leaves me scratching my head. Some of the stuff you talk about in this video is questionable. I can understand your desire to dial in your personal nutrition plan. But you also need to consider what the average viewer will take away from this. Now they're seeing that things like bananas, salmon, yogurt, and whole grains are bad. But in reality, those things are MUCH healthier than the ultra-processed foods most people are eating. Anyway, wishing you guys a great new year!
Nope, that's just not watching the video and drawing false conclusion
Except, he didn’t say any of that. Did you actually listen?
So what kind of whole grain bread works?
Let’s clear up some misconceptions about the banana 🍌! Bananas are very healthy! However they contain sugar! The longer a banana sits around and ripens the more it turns into sugar! I buy bananas slightly green. The more yellow, the more brown it turns the more sugar it has!
Hi Jeff! What do you think of frozen vegetables for nutrition?
I'm not Jeff, but frozen vegetables and fruit are typically frozen at their peak freshness and ripeness, rather than fresh produce, which is typically picked well before it ripens because it needs to travel and not be spoiled upon arrival at a grocery store. So in theory, frozen can have more nutrients/antioxidants in it. If you garden on your own, then your fresh veggies that you harvest yourself when they've ripened naturally on the plant are your best bet though.
If you're talking about a typical frozen veggie mix, like a bag of carrots, peas and corn, there's probably nothing wrong with that, but you do need variety in your diet for your best gut health (which affects so many other aspects of your health), so don't rely on it alone on a daily basis for getting your veggies in. Your healthy gut bacteria need various fiber and resistant starches to keep their populations up. They don't all feed on the same things.
If you want to read about the importance of variety in your diet for gut health, then I'd recommend Fiber Fueled by Will Bulsiewicz, MD, MSCI. I've read many books on (mainly plant based whole foods) nutrition, and this one motivated me to broaden my already wide variety of foods that I eat and not get too lazy with my cooking. Eating well does take effort, so every bit of motivation helps imo!
All, strawberries are good for you as long as they're ORGANIC. Video snippet Jeff included herein noted "inorganic strawberries". Those of you eating blueberries, or any thin-skin fruit or veggie, that aren't organically farmed are also ingesting gobs of things you're better off without. Organic farming prohibits the use of synthetic pesticides, herbicides, and fertilizers. You take a hit in your pocket book as organic is more expensive but it'll be worth it on many levels. Easy to research on ur own :)
you are such an amazing soul brother, god bless you as always🔋❤️🔥💯💪🏽🌊👑LETS GOOOOO BROTHA

Its so funny that you mention your story about white bean soup. I had a favorite thai food place when I was living abroad that I went to every other week for a wok with some tasty vegetables on saturday nights and some egg and bean curd mixed in. I went to colleagues house for a homecooked meal the friday night prior and got a slow creaping food poisoning along with half the guests in attendance! Some of whom I saw when we ended up in the neighborhood clinic together, it was the worst case of food poisoning I'd ever had in my life with a day and a half of full heaving, dehydration, vomitting bathroom..and to make it worse it was over 100 degrees outside and I had no air conditioning in my apartment. While it wasn't the thai food that gave me the food poisoning, it was the first thing that came up...all of it, burning with its curry flavor out of my throat.... to this day, what was once one of my favorite foods I will never order it again.
Thank-you for clarifying your choice in yougurt because we have lots in our traditional diets...
I've watched a few of your videos but the mummy analogy made me subscribe 🎉
Great video mate, informative as always.
Superstars included: Rhonda Patrick and glorious Rob Lustig (guy responsible for fixing my metabolic health!).
GJ!
Condensed version:
1. Don’t mix bananas in berry smoothies because a chemical reaction occurs that destroys the vitamins in berries. Why this vitamin is necessary? Video does not explain
2. Whole grain bread isn’t ‘whole’ because the grains are pulverized to make flour. This leads to the starches being exposed and ultimately more sugar in your body when ingested. This leads to insulin spikes. Video says long term insulin spikes lead to disease but does not explain how; although one should note the body uses insulin to convert excess sugars in the body into fat which is problematic and what we want to avoid
3. Soups due to their high sodium content which extends their shelf life. Jeff discusses the adverse effects eating canned soups have on him but these effects may vary on the individual
4. Synthetic food dyes due to possible health issues they pose
5. Farm raised fish due to their diets consisting synthetic food dyes
5. Yogurt is a waste of money if you’re trying to improve your gut health and you have not provided this bacteria with an environment to survive. You need to incorporate fiber into your diet as well, which processed food do not have
1. food with high PPO activity (banana, apple, avocado...) decrease Flavan-3-ols in food (kale, berries, yogurt...)
Flavan-3-ols are bioactive compounds found in a variety of fruits and vegetables that have been linked to positive health benefits.
2. Choose the real whole grain bread in speacialty health food store or whole food.
5. The pink color normal to salmon comes from the Krill as well, in the form of Astaxanthin. Farm raised salmons are feed with this so it's okay to eat them.
6. Jeff stills eats yogurt, prebiotic and probiotic, you need both
I appreciate your nuanced take on this foods
Good advice Jeff--best to remain practical. One of the EMTs I know had this story about this guy that had almost exclusively a banana diet for a couple months. He ended up having this health emergency and the EMT got there and there and he said there was nothing in his truck that could save this guy's life. Anything can be harmful if taken to excess.
It's baffling that people seriously think that eating only 1 food exclusively is going to be healthy... there are no foods I'm aware of that contain sufficient amounts of everything we need.
@2:12 "... and what's in every single smoothie they make?" The answer here is shredded fiber. Fiber that would otherwise (when whole) help regulate fructose absorption. Smoothies cause sugar spikes followed by insuline spikes and off goes the chain reaction...
When I was a boy, peanut butter and jelly sandos were a staple in my lunch box. One day after eating a P&J, I had a violent fit of throwing up. To this day, in my 60s, I still get nauseated looking at or thinking about P&J. PTSD is a good way to describe the reaction, It never occurred to be consider it PTSD. I don't like peanut butter (tho I can handle peanuts) and I can't stand jelly or jam.
I like to freeze banana sections and berries then add some to a cup and dump some walnuts and high fructose yogurt on top. Most decadent shirt when it starts going into frozen mush. Maybe adding some matcha green tea can counter some of the ill effects.
Everybody has to find their own way of physical exercise and eating healthy
man, sorry for the white bean soup issue. Happy New Year !
1) I never liked banana in my smoothies.
2) When I do have bread, I prefer the sprouted grain that's kept in the freezer section of the grocery...like Ezekiel or Sprouted Power (which is also higher in protein content). I always keep it frozen at home and just toast it (Air Fryer oven) to serve.
3) I might have a can of Progresso from time to time but, eh, it's rare.
4)My hair is generally the only thing I use dye for.
5) Who can afford $20/lb fish?! 🐟🎣😅
6)I love yogurt but I never really consumed it for any other reason than it's protein content. I love Skyr or a really good thick Greek if I can't get Skyr.
✌️ thanks Jeff!!
So glad that you included Dr. Lustig in this video! He's a true luminary in the metabolic health community. Right up there with Dr. Ben Bikman.
