I'm an ethical Vegan so it's good to hear your on eating mostly plant based. Health aside I think environmentally and for the sake of animals its a moral imperative.
For real for real , this is the mindset to aspire to and to value not ignorance and violence , Akala been on my top 3 selected U.K. and top 5 overall rappers , not too many on his level and carved his way backed up with education my bredrin used to date his cousin and he said the man is humble and knowledgable and has an Ora and glow about him ....
Im Vegan 4 years now a qualified nutritionist and training to be a nutritional therapist. I agree with a lot of what you have said. And bro fruit is amazing for health, very low on protein mind you, but you will make up for that with greens and beans etc. Ohh yeah man maca is good too, ginger too! Some herbs i take, Ashwaghanda, devils claw, chlorella (not really an herb), ginger all the time, gotu kola and ginseng are also good. Plant based and Vegan is where its at, i mean we don’t need animals for food whatsoever, way too much fat in the animal foods and zero fibre. Fibre is king and protein is just as important.
Ive bumped into him a couple times over the years, for all his smarts hes a real humble dude, deserves every bit of success and much more! Rogan get this man on asap.
Lemon Juice or lime juice with water is the first thing I drink in the morning and throughout the day. After that Cerasee tea, I try to get the plant from Jamaica but most times it's the tea bags I have to use :( It's funny when you go to the grocery store now. the produce section with all the "Natural stuff" is full but all the processed foods sections are empty.
I think along the same lines and take many herbs and supplements throughout the day ... Soursop, yerba mate, Kratom, green tea, valerian tea, CBD oil. Health is wealth.
I went through a lot of stress when I was 15 yrs old & on top of that I had my G.C.S.E's. My nan use to boil me some soursap leaves and bring it to me every evening b4 bed, 20 years later I'm still drinking it. Soursap is good for the nervous system and I find it best to drink in the evening or night time after the phone has been switched off. Drinking teas at different times of the day is a nice ritual. For me, Ginger and Lemon are great morning teas, midday I would reach for some nice oolong tea, dandelion or Moringa to help me reset. Once you get into it your body guide you to reach for the tea you need :-)
Toni Glow: I think tastebuds 🤷♂️your body tells you when it’s in pain, not what flavour tea you should drink, if you and your body has such an open stream of communication like your suggesting I don’t think loneliness would exist lol.
@@SK_Esskay well this communication has makes me wanna reach for something bitter, like u lol, or maybe some cerassie. I'll ask my tastebuds to tell my body what it needs.
Equinacea extract to boost your immune system also :) And for all singers if you drop a slice of aubergine in water and leave to chill, helps when it comes to spitting/singing them bars. Not a nutritionist, but these lil things help me :)
Theres actually a song called "Health is Wealth" by an american rapper called Blueprint, pretty good song. The dude has a similar vibe to Akala in terms of content and meaning.
Akala massive respect to you, been a fan for years and your in my top three favorite artists! If your just vegetarian I would recommend you look into th exploitation associated with cheese and other dairy products, aswell as eggs and most animal products in honesty. Absolute atrocities all paid for by the public.
@Tian Vermonntemg doesn't really matter where you buy it from. The calf is still taken from the mother so we can take her milk and the dairy cow is still killed when the farmer can't make any money off her. Even at these "happy cow" farms.
the insomnia is sometimes caused by the blue spectrum of the light fooling your brain into thinking its 2pm in the day time. If you are staying up until 10-12pm try wearing sunshades in doors. This should bounce out the blue spectrum of the light. Especially if watching TV or using the Iphones, etc.
More of you please. How do you settle down to focus on a project? What tools do you use to research? Your favourite football stars, musicians, films.. anyting.
Thanks for the informative video. It's great that you try to stay healthy. During this Pandemic especially I recommend you also take vitamin D supplements as they boost your immunity mate. Love your music and insight Sir! Respect 👊
It's a little bit odd that FarmersCartMeat is the advertising that youtube decided to put on for this particular youtube post... Thank you Akala for your positive, intelligent, thoughtful, present leadership.
The diary is the beast. Just ordered my friends children yoga mats, help them through the pandemic, also good way to stretch after home schooling and game consoling.

@@isupportthecurrentthing.1514 sorry mate don't move the goalposts the person said dairy is the beast they've got to stick by it. Veganism is anti human which makes sense when they see the most nourishing drink there is as a beast.

@@isupportthecurrentthing.1514 my heritage is northern European if fruit and veg only grow for a certain amount of time throughout the year here how can you say veganism is a healthy diet suited to by body and genetics?
Hey its you i recognise you from some facebook groups. Your that disgustingly racist woman who judges whole groups based on skin colour. Get off Akala's stuff, your type isnt wanted here 👍
That would be a flexitarian . The movement for people who want to feel like they're making a difference without actually making any significant changes .
Big ups from Aus 🦘 I was thinking a few weeks back what your personal nutrition routine looked like to compliment your physical/academic activities, so thanks for putting this out 🙏🏽 keen to try some of these herbs
Great information. Soursap, cerassie, hibiscus, thyme, mint, ginger, lemon and lime are some of my favourite things to put in my hot drinks. I love my spirulina too. Do you take vitamin D?
Much love for this. I could do with this being 10X in length. Just wondering how you take your Moringa? I take it as a powder which I put into vegan capsules
i've been eating raw ginger and sometimes garlic.... fam that sorts me OUT. got my friend on it too. im rly interested in these herbs - luckily i live in hackney so ill try visit a jamaican shop for some of these herbs
Master Akala. please have a virtual Dojo 🙏🙏🙏 I am anyways working towards getting trained by you. But it would be much faster if you have a special school. 🧠🍀💚 I'll also pay 😭😭 Anything to be trained by you!
Love this thanks. I agree with the phone thing if i go meditate and read before i grab the phone i'm way more productive. Haven't heard of some of these herbs thanks for that as well. Wondering if you could make more book recommendations!?
Akala - just came out of a long illness. Keen to try some of these things. Do you take the Reishi & Ginseng in supplement form? Looked in my 3 local health food shops at Spirulina, Reishi etc. and super expensive. Any chance u can recommend a few brands/options..? Cheers. D
@@truelightoutdoors8450 I don't get what you mean, a stimulant isn't a bad thing? It's just the mechanism of it, specifically it's a central nervous system stimulant. Are you confusing amphetamines with something being a CNS stimulant?
I live in Ireland and I wish more Caribbean people came here because we have very few of these. Also Caribbean people are sound and fuck and I think they might like Ireland.
Need to get you on the rogan podcast. Wisdom, history, health, martial arts, music, tick all the boxes!!!

Major respect for this. This is needed because health is wealth and wealth is health...true or true?
True but plants does not equate to health more like death and slavery
You cant seek truth if you control the options for people to reply. True or true wtf is that????

What’s the best way to have these herbs anyway you could mix them into a drink for example or would it always be with food?
