This is so cool! Today as my husband and I were eating cucumbers grown in our backyard. We were talking about how yummy and refreshing they are. It's hot here in florida, so the cucumbers hit the spot! We grow bananas, coconuts, and now delicious cucumbers! Who knew they were so good for you? 🙂😁😎Thanks Dr. Livingood!
@@joycesegers55783:21 IKR. So confusing going back and forth between the different practitioners and their different perspectives. I try to take the best of each. Ex. Eat cucumbers peeled and de-seeded.😮
Thank you for redirecting your focus in your physician capabilites. I work in a hospital lab and we need more doctors looking for root causes and lifestyle adjustments
Try cutting it in half place in freezer and in the morning apply to your face and whalla glows everywhere within 5 days , and I do drink it a cup day keeps me hydrated thru out the day , less water 💧 to drink , one cucumber is all you need or at least half of one to consume a day , drinking or eating both very benefíciala for Ones own body
Thank you. I have been working on lowering cholesterol, improving my blood pressure, and I'm tired a lot. All these amazing things you mentioned are helpful ❤ . After mentioning the rubbing it on the mirrors. I wonder if I rubbed it on my car headlights, if it would keep them looking new. (Worth a try 😉 ? ) And thank you for your livingood book I received, and all your little ads that pop up that I see. I keep watching them. You make me smile. Your much loved. ❤❤❤❤ God bless you.
I started drinking cucumber juice a while back first thing in the morning.it tastes refreshing and wakes me up because I can’t drink caffeine. After a month without changing anything else, I noticed my blood pressure was lower at that time too.
You missed the most useful one. This one is a marathon runner's secret. A half a cup of pickle juice will get rid of muscle cramps almost immediately!. I personally can attest to it's effectiveness. I sometimes get morning cramps in my thighs. My brother who is a runner told me about this and it works so well that I have jars of dill pickles in the frig and in my van in case of cramps when hiking.
I'm over 70 yrs. old and I have been drinking dill pickle juice since I've been 13 yrs. old. My daughter and granddaughter started drinking it when they were both 13 yrs. old.
the English cucumbers are my favorite, slim and slightly sweet are absolutely delish. They come shrink wrapped in clear plastic. Select a firm one. Slices can be dipped in hummus or put on a sandwich, or served as a side to toast and eggs. Regular cucs are just not that great, in my opinion!
I have issues with nightshade vegetables and have been adding cucumbers to my collagen and veggie smoothies I've ended up with lots of body pain and triggered migraine headaches. There are other nightshade vegetables I cannot eat but this one I thought at least if I bought it organic I would be able to eat it but I can't I even tried the organic European cucumber. I also have to be very careful with tomatoes peppers especially sweet red peppers and any other hot peppers forget it.
I love cucumbers I probably eat a good half of one every day in English cucumber however I have to peel it for chewing and digestion does it still have all the benefits @@DrLivingood
I also love cucumber water! I just wash my cucumbers and then oral it and even out the peals in a jar and all the cucumbers after I slice them and let it sit in the water in the fridge for a while and I drink it. After it is empty I just refill it. It lasts in the fridge for several days!!!! Jesus is Amazing! He gives us what we need !!!
This is so good - I'm going to watch it again & take notes. I've been learning more about glucose -- going to eat a cucumber after my ACV Thank You ... Farmers Market tomorrow
Can you get the same benefits if you don't eat the skin? I'm learning to like them and remove the skin. Just wondering if the skin is where some of the nutrients are.
Overall I would not be worried about eating lectin containing foods unless you know you have sensitivities to those foods. Processed food, sugars, and bad oils are way more important to focus on. Many of the foods containing lectins have a lot of health benefits to outweigh the negatives for most people. Lectins can also easily be minimized by fermenting veggies, sprouting nuts, and cooking the grains/beans. -LGD Team
Does it matter if it's a full size or mini cucumber? We prefer the smaller ones because there are no seeds in them. Do the small ones have the same benefits?
You said that cucumbers do not spike your insulin. Does that mean that adding them to my water while fasting will not break my fast? And does that make it dirty fasting?
The nutritional content will be slightly different from pickles and cucumbers but both have great benefits! I would recommend doing some research on what variety of cucumber thrives best in your local area -LGD Team
Do you have to remove the seeds before eating cucumber if you have it everyday with breakfast for many weeks? I have been informed to remove all seeds from vegetable.
If cucumber is bathed in pesticides conventionally grown its not healthy. I usually make a Greek salad of mostly cucumbers but i add cilantro nd extra virgin olive oil, feta cheese, dill and onions.

But what about lectins, aren't cucumbers 🥒🥒 full of them? The "other" doctor says 🤔 lectins are bad for our gut, especially the skin and the seeds. 🤷
@@joycesegers5578 I am susceptible to leaky gut. Cucumbers do not affect me like corn& beans or certain grain.🌻

That doesn't really have anything to do with the pickles.
Look into fermented cucumbers dr berg said sum bout them being good
I'm over 70 yrs. old and I have been drinking dill pickle juice since I've been 13 yrs. old. My daughter and granddaughter started drinking it when they were both 13 yrs. old.
@@JJ-ks3modr berg isn’t a doctor he’s a chiropractor and an absolute clown. He’s been exposed multiple times
That has nothing to do with the cucumber. It has everything to do with the salt
I will start using cucumbers moving forward...
Great information!
Thanks❤

Thank you! What are your thoughts on eating the seeds?
Dont. Your body has a hard time trying to breakdown the seeds
I have issues with nightshade vegetables and have been adding cucumbers to my collagen and veggie smoothies I've ended up with lots of body pain and triggered migraine headaches. There are other nightshade vegetables I cannot eat but this one I thought at least if I bought it organic I would be able to eat it but I can't I even tried the organic European cucumber.

Cucumbers aren't nightshades.
Unfortunate I can’t eat certain fruits either kiwi banana pineapple
Amazing knowledge you have accumulated. Bravo 👏
I love them in my greens with celery and blueberries ❤ delish
Thank you!! I learned a few things.

Pickles are great snacks! -LGD Team

Diet COKE???

Shalom 💞🙏🏻💖

I have it everyday ...!!
do they have lectins? do we need to take away seeds and some of the skin
Can you get the same benefits if you don't eat the skin? I'm learning to like them and remove the skin. Just wondering if the skin is where some of the nutrients are.
You can eat them either way! -LGD Team
So you didn't watch the video? Lmfao
What about the lectins? It contains high lectins and they are in the seeds.
Overall I would not be worried about eating lectin containing foods unless you know you have sensitivities to those foods. Processed food, sugars, and bad oils are way more important to focus on. Many of the foods containing lectins have a lot of health benefits to outweigh the negatives for most people. Lectins can also easily be minimized by fermenting veggies, sprouting nuts, and cooking the grains/beans. -LGD Team
Do you juice it with the skin?
You can peel the skin if you would like, but the skin will increase the mineral content -LGD Team
Only if organic
CUCUMBA!
Does it matter if it's a full size or mini cucumber? We prefer the smaller ones because there are no seeds in them. Do the small ones have the same benefits?

What about if they're pickled, are they as nutritional?
And which variety of cumber is best to grow for those who garden?
The nutritional content will be slightly different from pickles and cucumbers but both have great benefits! I would recommend doing some research on what variety of cucumber thrives best in your local area -LGD Team
Wooow

Removing the seeds is not required:) -:LGD Team
Was one of those vitamin 12 ❓ Don’t always recall the names of the number vitamins
I eat them every day
I can't eat the skin but eat some cucumber every day.
I eat it alot
I drink cucumber juice everyday
I eat cucumber often
I can’t afford organic.would this help me if not ‘clean’?
Yes I would still add them. Look for local
Are pickle's just as good as raw
If cucumber is bathed in pesticides conventionally grown its not healthy. I usually make a Greek salad of mostly cucumbers but i add cilantro nd extra virgin olive oil, feta cheese, dill and onions.
Sounds delicious! Thanks.
Do I have to leave the skin on or can it be peeled?
You can peel it if you prefer! -LGD Team
Shouldn't they be peeled and deseeded to reduce their lectin content?
❤
Do pickles count?
We recommend organic pickles:) -LGD Team
are these benefits only with skin on?
Eating pickles get the same results?
Not quite! If you're looking at pickles for health benefits though, we would suggest you check out fermented pickles! -LGD Team
❤❤❤
Cakes are east to grow in a 5 gal bucket
❤😊
Do they need to be organic? I know it’s best, but if not available organically, will that be okay?
Hi Jennifer! Check out this article for more info on that- drlivingood.com/clean-15-and-dirty-dozen-which-foods-to-buy-organic/ - LGD Team
They are part of the dirty dozen so it's best to buy organic.
I have a question.....what is the difference in eating a cucumber verses juicing one for reducing stress?
A great option to replenish electrolytes
Where do you find authentically fresh cucumber?!!!
They're good for inside the body but not too sure about all the cleaning benefits on sinks, shoes, ect..how does that work?

What’s a “meer?”
But what if you don't like the taste of cucumbers
What about pickles?? Cukes in a different form. Or does the process kill the nutrients?
Pickles are a great snack! Just make sure there aren't bad ingredients added in! They also make fermented pickles you could try! -LGD Team
I want to know who found out that cucumber stops squeaky hinges and formed those experiments
🤣😂🤣😂 I know. Right! Someone sitting around thinking, "I wonder what happens if I rub cucumber on...shoes, hinges....."
It does work, although very temporarily. I judt HAD to try both 😁😁😁
Does it matter? This isnt a technical answer, just a common sense one. Just try it yourself, and if it works, great! That's my plan.
Do you eat the skin?
You can eat them with or without the skin:) -LGD Team
It has to be organic cucumbers.
I don't like cucumbers taste or smell, would English cucumbers have the same benefits?
English cucumbers are fine:) -LGD Team
Is it bettter to eat the skin of the cucumber??? Or no
Hello. You do get the benefits both ways. -LGD Team
So … just eat a cucumber 🥒 every day:))
Q😊😊😊😂
I have replaced chips with a sandwich with a small cucumber.
👍
If not summertime, and from a farm stand, cucumbers make me burp cucumber, its not good.
