My Grandmother was a LPN. Way back in the 1940s and 50s, she was telling people to eat butter, not margarine, not to smoke, don't let doctors take out your kids' tonsils because they are there to fight infection and eat and drink real food, not processed food. This was at a time when doctors were smoking in ICUs, when docs were routinely removing kids' tonsils and cardiologists were telling everyone to eat margarine, not butter. She was right about everything. It turns out, medical science was way behind her. Amazing woman.
Well God bless her. Back then they were way more people that knew that than do today. That's the evolution of big pharmaceutical companies wanting us to stay sick

During the 1000 year reign on earth of Christ, it will be said they died early if they die before 100! Isa 65:20 Never again will there be in it an infant who lives but a few days, or an old man who does not live out his years; he who dies at a hundred will be thought a mere youth; he who fails to reach a hundred will be considered accursed. (21) They will build houses and dwell in them; they will plant vineyards and eat their fruit.
That’s awesome! I’ve been growing my own food for about 30 years. All my vegetables taste like there suppose to, grocery stores vegetables taste horrible! I’m trying to live like people did 100 years ago. Good luck and maybe grow some food.
I am a 70 year old female. Three years ago I was prediabetic and morbidly obese. At that point I decided to remove all added sugar from my diet. I ate a balance of protein, good carbs and healthy fats and today I am down to a healthy weight and I lost 70 pounds. As a result of eating healthy I also started weight training in the gym and I’ve gone from someone who didn’t enjoy exercise to a lover of fitness! Obviously, my lab numbers have all gone down to a normal range and I’m feeling the very best I’ve ever felt. If it was possible for me, it is absolutely possible for others!! Btw, I loved this podcast. Thank you for speaking out!!
I started intermittent fasting, cut out sugar in a big way (am eating some now, limited) trying to stay away from breads. I’ve lost 30 lbs in 5 months. I’m 62 and feel so much better! Eat what God makes.
God made bacteria , too . And fungi . More then 30 mill different species of fungi alone ! And viruses , his favourite . All that in only six days ! Attaboy !
I went low carb in 2012. Stayed with it & lost a lot of weight plus it reversed my T2 diabetes. I stayed with it because it dropped my triglycerides down to a good range & cholesterol flipped to a much better ratio hi density/low density. But eventually I started including fruits & lower carb veggies. But I keep waiting for the "I feel so much better" factor. I feel the same. I was always active, walking & biking a lot even tho I was very overweight. Im old now & it could be just old age creeping up on me.
Good for you! I did too at 68 last year while driving alone from Calif to Panama. Away from US grocery stores and restaurants. Now back, six months later, all weight came back. So now paying attention to what I want to be a long term solution.
I normally don't eat bread, but I do like it. As a treat; one day I cooked a small bread roll and soft boiled eggs in the evening. An hour later I tested my blood sugar. Horror it was 9.2. I was so shocked, I tested it again 2, 1/2 hours later, 9.5. Yicks it had still been climbing after the hour. P.S. A banana sent my blood sugar to 8.5. Buy a glucose monitoring machine. Use as the boss and if it says your blood sugar is high UK over 5.8. US I think is about 100, non diabetic. Don't eat again. Type 2 get as close as you can to a normal reading. It is possible for type 2 to go into complete remission. Type 2 don't panic at Dawn effect. It should get better after a time. could take up to year. Most a few weeks.
My mother and ten of her siblings all started having heart attacks around age 50’s. Their diet included Crisco and Mazzola oil. I realized I was at high risk for heart disease due to heart trouble on both sides of my family. My decisions were to really attend to my diet. In my 80’s now, and there have been no coronary events. Granted is is a study of ONE, but to me, my decision use olive oil exclusively may have spared me hospitalization and early death.
Happy to hear you're doing well & heeding good advice. I've been researching natural health for 40 years, & I've listened to my body to find out what it needs. I have the typical American diet (yikes), although not as bad. Rarely, fast food or overly processed food, but the main idea is that I never eat more than I need to feel satisfied. That's the key. Too many of us think we must stuff ourselves at every meal. Never hungry, never full is my motto. 😊 Oh, & I haven't needed a doctor in about 30 years. Prayer helps too! God bless you & share your knowledge of good eating with others. 😊
Do you have any other nutritional advice that you can share that you have noticed that have greatly improved your health? If you do, I would personally love to read it. Thank you!
@@thecowboy9698 I try to listen to my body while staying current on research. Eg. Protein needs are higher with the aging process. I grow much of my own food which assures that it is organic. My gut is filled with microbes and so is my garden soil. All these microbes are in relationship. I can’t see the microbes in the yogurt I make but they live within. Much gratitude for small things.
Schools in Korea make real food for students. Soup, banchan(side vegetable dishes), some protein and rice. Kids in Asia perform academically better globally and i believe food has a lot to do w it. Bc gut health= brain health= good emotional & cognitive development.
I absolutely Believe that! I mean depression and negative thinking, autism and Many other mental related problems most of the time stems from the diet their eating. I'm religiously firm with this Believe because i Saw a massive positive change in my psychological, mental en fysical health
@@Beetshelps I absolutely agree w you. My friend who has 3 kids has a pantry stocked full of cereals w every packaged processed snacks imaginable, juices in the fridge, yummy frozen treats in the freezer. Two of her kids has been diagnosed w social anxiety disorder; one is more severe than the other has to see a psychologist and is on Ritalin. I tried to tell her it was the food they ate but her “doctor” husband said food had no impact on their disorder. Sad.
I owe you my life my friend. A million thank you. I lost my right leg due to diabetes 4 years ago. Today I visited my doctor he was amazed. My sugar levels never go above 7 even after meals. I have not taken any meds for about 3 months now. Before this I was just warn out, finished! Now I feel 35 again. (I'm 59) You sir are a Saint and an angle, thank you.
@@faustinreeder1075in Ethiopia, extended families and community life make life for the elderly very enjoyable and comfortable. They are honored, served and looked up to. They would be active working on their farms or whatever, it going to church on the daily: but they never are left alone. So, it’s worlds apart from the lifestyle we have here.
I lost 120 lbs. in 1-1/2 years and never ate a single thing that was low-fat or fat-free! I stopped eating refined sugar completely and starches for the most part and did intermittent fasting. I have stage 4 COPD and wasn't able to exercise and still am very limited, but I married the love of my life at 70 years old : ) That all happened two years ago and I'm still amazed...PTL
Yes I agree specially with the changing scenario .. GMO’s and preservatives .. as a layman people don’t want to know and even understand and also want to put effort to understand how much bad food can damage the gut and specially teens they do not listen at all .. !! School should propagate the mandatory nutrition education or I should say they should make it a mandatory part of education!!
It depends on who's paying for it. iIf bill gates ,, Pfizer or big pharma forget it they are trying to poison billions .... first of all who can you trust with your children 🤔 in Australia we don't have inough teachers they had to quit because of the poison jab the principle not responsible kids were herded in to buses to a football field marched through police officers to administer the injection no parent's permits required LOL 😉
I agree with you, yet I must tell you about my grandmother. She lived up to 105 years. Even though she had arthritis, she never stopped moving. Even as she sat down, she was sewing or crocheting. She mostly ate oatmeal for breakfast, non fat dry milk, and fresh fruits. Her lunch was heavy: rice and homemade beans, an animal protein, and a little desert. Her dinner was extremely light. She was incredible. Never ate anything from a can.
My Grandma would agree, except for the non-fat part of the milk. She did not think fats are bad. Science seems to have proven her right. Basically, she said to eat real food, not processed. However, the non-fat milk certainly didn't hurt your grandma! 105, wow! Mine believed people should eat real food. I forget how old she was when she died but she was very old. I took her advice and always cooked from scratch for my family. My two children, a boy and a girl, are both great cooks and do the same. When kids are raised eating real food, they don't want garbage, processed food. When they got out on their own, they both found out the garbage, processed foods just don't taste the same. I am happy about that.
@@donnagelina8548 sounds like my aunt Jiggy Sue . She lived to a ripe old age of 172 years . She would sit on the porch every morning talking about "the red coats are coming , the red coats are coming!!!!". Never knew what she meant .
I honestly went into this not knowing what I was going to be listening to, and now I'm sitting here outside on my lunch break at work completely invested in this
I'm 57, my mother never bought in to the margarine insanity. We ate eggs for breakfast most of the time, and she would never take to a fast food restaurant. I was so disappointed as a kid when my friends families would go to McDonalds for dinner. The way she taught us to eat became habit for me and my siblings, now we are all healthy adults.
My grandmother was not a schooled student. She lived through the Great Depression in the 1930’s. She always made soups and meat with at least 3 vegetables. Also, she made fish. We ate corn tortillas and rolls. She had her own garden, and cooked vegetables from her garden. We ate spinach, cauliflower, asparagus, zucchini. She had orange, apricot, and walnut trees. She made Spanish rice and pasta in the soups. Any sweets where treats like once a week. We would buy sweets from the bakery. Everything was homemade. I was a child in the 1970’s and was taught to be grateful and appreciate the food I was eating. My grandma lived to be 87 years old.
NO CHEMICALS!!! No propaganda training with Better Homes & Gardens. I know it was a major influence on me. McCalls was in the house all the time. The ads made me think Dandelions were Horrible... Now I Know...They are amazing plants with amazing healing properties... Never have used any of those lawn chemicals...I can walk in the grass without soakin up any chemicals into my body... Funny thing Dandelions aid riding the body of those harmful chemicals. Use the roots for a part of my morning coffee, use the leaves to make Pesto for my one sprouted wheat bread slice sandwich.
She probably lived that long (may she rest) because she ate a lot of plant foods and limited animal products. What you might call a 'plant-forward' diet. She would probably have been healthier and lived longer if she cut out meat, dairy and eggs entirely, though. Of course, there are a lot of other factors including genetics, lifestyle and place of residence, and some people have lived until a ripe old age despite smoking cigarettes all their life. They are the exception, not the rule. Similarly, people in Greece often live until old ages eating a mostly 'Mediterranean' diet with mostly plant foods and only minimal animal products. That doesn't mean the animal products weren't bad for them, and there are other factors in their success; these people generally live much healthier, more active lifestyles than in other cultures, and get a lot of the freshest air in the world. Their plant-forward diets definitely are part of it but they could be better if they were fully plant-based whole foods diets, proven scientifically to be the healthiest for humans. Regardless, plant based foods are proven to produce better health outcomes in almost all cases, and are necessary for the environment and stopping climate change, and to prevent unjust and unnecessary animal suffering. Go vegan for the planet, the animals, and your health.
If you don't believe me, research the science on plant based diets, environment and climate, health, and animal welfare. This is the scientific consensus.
Probably my two favourite doctors. During my education I became very disillusioned with medicine, it seemed like we were treating symptoms not causes and serving big pharma. Doctors like you give me hope that I will truly helping people. Thank you so much. May God Almighty bless you both.
You’re a truth seeker…Dr. Mark Hyman. You’re the only podcaster on food science that delivers knowledge on a multitude of levels. Levels that directly affect our health, our economy, and our planet. Your knowledge on food toxicity, environmental impact, diseases, economics, meal planning, promoting single ingredient foods( i.e., the food item itself), nutrient dense foods, and forbidden foods that are destructive to our health has taught me everything I need to know. I’ve watched all your podcasts and your panel discussions with other food gurus. You stand out to me Dr. Hyman! You’re as the best doctor on the planet!! Thanks for your hard work and for remaining current.
I lost 45 pounds within 6 months. I deleted sugar, alcohol, white flour, eggs, pork, oils, fast foods and all of dairy. I eat clean now, more vegetables, fruit, beans, lentils, chicken, turkey and fish and home made meals at all times. I feel great and my blood tests have proven that we could get better if we change our foods. I find that for four problems that I had and was on medicine, now I'm off all medicines and living life with joy and no pain mentally or physically. Life is good, let's treat our bodies with respect!
I've been following the Medical Medium, Anthony William and he stated that eggs feed pathogens and it should be the number one item to delete off our list to eat. I have done that and I don't get colds any longer and my cholesterol went down over 50 numbers within 6 months. There are many other foods that provide great protein so eggs are no longer in my menu. Especially those that suffer from Epstein Barr virus, the eggs feed that virus big time. Wishing you the Best of health!@@tbone5040
Europe has BANNED so many foods and no longer sell them. America however keeps selling all this junk . It pisses me off. They’ve even ruined our bread. I read that a woman who has digestive problems due to our bread here in America. She moved to Europe and noticed that she had no digestive problems at all eating the bread there. Europe has fresh baked bread stores on every corner there. I try to buy organic as much as possible. It does make a difference I’ve noticed.
In Europe most countries don't allow genetically modified (GMO) foods to be cultivated. So the wheat flour in their bread his from wheat grown without genetic modification like we used to do years ago. So that's one main difference. The way to get around that here is to buy gluten free bread because the grains used in making that bread doesn't contain any wheat or other GMO flour.
A few years back EU outlawed Round Up. I hope they did not cave into Bayer/Monsanto. A little additional information...Monsanto was the maker of DDT & Cholordane which were War Chemicals that were repurposed after WWII to fumigate Wheat & other grain elevators after the War as when the War ended their markets dried up... Thanks to Rachel Carson's book Silent Spring in 1962 those chemicals are not allowed to be used here but they are still made & used on Produce in other countries & those crops are shipped back here. What a WASTE of RESOURCES!!! Big Pharma like Sick People though...keeps those temples to Sick Care Open!!!
Just remember the sicker Americans are the more $$$$ the US Healthcare system makes! Follow the money! In European countries , the government is paying for your healthcare ! They don't want you to get sick ! In France if you smoke you pay higher taxes! They don't want you to get Lung Cancer! Makes sense to me!
@@user-uy8nw9zm6b I use vegetable oils,but I'm still Jazzed about this life style. I really am happy. I did this as an experiment and wow the difference is big, I'm doing the cloves and garlic thing and I really am getting results after 2 weeks
I was a sugar addicted for 3quarter of my 55yrs life before December 2022, got some questions why I experienced different bad symptoms, googled my questions and change my total eating lifestyle to KETO and lots of symptoms changed for the good. God gave me wisdom and opened my eyes! We need to learn to read all food labels.
I'm 28 just started watching what I eat due to health problems. I used to junk out and was at 240+lbs felt sluggish and was depressed. In the last 7 months I started eating healthy researching everything I was eating and when I was supposed to eat it and now I feel healthier and am at a healthy weight 180lbs never realized how much more energized and happy I could feel just by eating healthy
@@A_D624 it was a lot of hard work. Instead of eating junk food and switching to fruit and salads instead biking everyday to work although not too far. It sucked but my stomach has shrunk as well. People who didn't know that I had switched up my lifestyle completely thought I was doing drugs and that's how I lost so much weight lol
@@RiceHatSamurai nice but my story was that I was 235 in my mid 30s and now I am 175 and I eat very little meat and eggs Lol also I took 2 years to lose that in a slow transition. I feel amazing and can't believe people are eating like they do.
@@RiceHatSamuraiGreat job! Not many people have the willpower to succeed as you did. You will be able to help others when the occasion arises. I'm happy for you & pray you have a blessed life.
My husband was a chef, so our kids didn't eat a lot of processed foods. Picture this, end of the first day of school, I start to ask the usual how was your day... My oldest son, "Mom, I think the school is trying to kill us. That lunch was not food". They never bought lunch at school again. If they forgot their lunch at home, they would refuse to eat. Bonus tip from hubby: want your kids to eat veggies? Blend them into sauces. Lol, they never knew they were eating tomatoes, squash , carrots, onions, etc. in their spaghetti!
You know I don’t like the texture of carrots and onions since I was a kid, but I understand that food especially meat just is not tasty without onions and carrots, so I blend it or dice it into very small pieces
What a great podcast. Thank you! Dr. Hyman is amazing. When he mentioned the families living on food stamps that had never eaten a cooked meal in their lives, it reminded me of an incident that I would never forget as long as I live. When my daughter was a freshman (in a a ivy-league university, mind you!), my wife made some dinner for us and my daughter's room-mate had never seen real potatoes before in her life!!!!! She thought they came in plastic bags already in small sticks ready to be eaten!!!!! True story!
Yes. When I was in medical school, we had one lecture on nutrition given by a dietician who obviously didn't know anything about biochemistry or physiology but was simply reading off the list of "approved" recomendations.
For the same reason your FDA is a joke you also are not taught nutrition. But don't worry. I have faith in the people. They will figure out a way to make governemt oversight actually work with more government.
I asked my old Doctor in his 70's why the younger Doctors of today seem to lack the knowledge of what Doctors had 40 and 50 years ago, he told me that today the medical students do not receive the same knowledge as they learned? To quote a young doctor? You don't understand what you are talking about is Old School we don't use that anymore as it was never tested if you have colon problems do not eat pop corn as it could find a pocket and start a infection? 35 years later I stay away from eating pop corn and other dangerous items and I have never had that infection at age 82?
I am from the EU (Germany) and here the idea is: the producers have to prove a food is safe while in America it is: it is safe until proven dangerous. Different approach to safety. Now, as a German I love my bread which I bake myself and is made using sour dough, over between 24-48 hours time. There is no way I am giving up my sour dough bread! It is the quantity you eat and the quality you eat.
@@marianking1379 You make your own starter. It is the easiest thing in the world: bread flour, water and time. There are many RUclips videos explaing how it is done and baking bread is not difficult.
When he mentioned that a family can cook a dinner of chicken, potatoes and salad for less money than eating at McDonald's, I thought about another factor - we have become a country that for a large percentage of the population, both parents need to work in order to pay for raising a family. This is where parents don't have time to cook. I think that's a large contributing factor to the issue of eating processed foods.
It's not crispy, but that particular meal works very well in a crockpot! Due to serious food sensitivities with 2 in my family not able to eat wheat, dairy and eggs (it's rough!), using a crockpot when I have to work long days has been so helpful. Saves money, too. I wish you well!
You are correct. Especially since the pandemic. People cook for yourselves. Restaurant food, even the best restaurants, are poisons. Stop eating in them & getting take out. COOK 4 YOURSELVES!
I mean yeah, but you could have made a homemade slice of pizza with great quality ingredients and it still would have knocked you out of ketosis for several days because that’s just how ketosis and carbs work
This is so true my husband died at 55 from a massive heart attack. Every day when he came home from school when he was a kid he ate 1/2 a package of oreo cookies every day. My mom rarely bought us treats. I am 61 and still very healthy. I ate a lot of home grown food as a kid and all of the kids in my family are healthy today. I can say thank you Mom for a taking care of us. Is whole wheat bread bad as well?
@June Brezgis I always say Oreos are poison. I may rarely eat a couple but I say this out loud each time I put one in my mouth. Kinda kills the appetite.
Get yourself a glucose Meter and test one hour before and after eating to see how foods effect blood sugar. Walmart has tester and 100 test strips for $18.00 each. Worth it!
You don't even have to ban foods, just educate people starting from K through 12 about nutrition. When these junk food companies lose profit they will change.
Well the problem there is our public school system is no longer used to educate it is used to brainwash and indoctrinate and the do just that by "educating" them with health information that is exactly the opposite of what is healthy.
@@ihartsacto yep....veganism is the worldwide communism/UN diet. Anything promoted by government is something we should blindly believe...duh Then vegans pretend like they're fighting the system when they ARE the system... You can swap the term "vegan" for "leftist" and it also makes sense...but then again, i've never met a vegan who wasn't a self hating , white guilt leftist atheist scumbag.
I'm a teacher and I can tell you that school lunches are now extremely unhealthy. For several years now, everything they serve is processed and microwaved. Our school provides free breakfast and lunch. The only thing that is considered healthy is fruit and an occasional salad or broccoli (even though the broccoli is frozen). We now see a higher level of ADHD, ADD, and obesity in children. Yet, the schools claim that what they serve is healthy and nutritious. What will it take to serve really healthy and nutritious foods to kids? It probably won't happen because the free lunches are government funded. Additionally, most kids go home to eat fast food for dinner, and most go home to play video games and rarely play outside. Very sad.
AMEN, my granddaughter and I were talking about that just a few days ago and we were wondering where does our tax money go for the school's healthy food that they claim to be serving, she has 2 kid's in school and neither one of them likes to eat the stuff their school's serve. When I was in school we are just like we did at home all nutrition food, The people need to protest against the school's and government and see if they can get the food that they pay for with their hard earned money.
That happened with Michelle Obama's lunch program. Although, I think she meant well but the schools couldn't afford the diet as she envisioned, so they interpreted it to fit their budget.
Everything you said is true except the fact that there is nothing wrong with frozen broccoli. All frozen vegetables are only blanched. Nothing added and nothing processed.
21 months ago I stopped eating sugars, starches and all green products and processed food. I did that strictly for about six months and by that time at cured all of my disease and gotten rid of all of my medication. I added some low sugar fruits in very small quantities, but I stick with the, low sugar, vegetables, the cruciferous vegetables, leafy greens, squash, avocado, tomato, onions, peppers, and mushrooms, and I eat moderate to small amounts of these accenting, a core diet of grass fed beef, pasture, raised, chicken, eggs, and wild, caught seafood. I use only avocado oil, and occasionally a good source, cold, pressed olive oil And will have a little dairy, cheese, sour cream that I used to make ranch dressing with avocado oil and eggs and lemon juice and mustard as a mayonnaise base with different spices and this has been my diet for 21 months. Before I started, I was 433 pounds and pretty severe heart disease and was on two medication’s and for the last year or so had been eating exactly what my doctors were telling me to starting out every morning with a yogurt smoothie with a whole apple, a whole banana, kale, honey and mixed frozen fruit that had mango peach, strawberries, and pineapple in it along with oatmeal because my doctors were insistent that I must lower my cholesterol and over that last year I gained about 85 pounds doing exactly what my doctor told me to do and got sicker. I felt like I was dying so I decided at least I need to lose weight. I started a keto diet and made myself sick because I did it wrong, and the good part of that was that I started studying nutrition to figure out why I made myself sick when I was eating what should’ve been pretty normal foods. After a few months of studying and getting over everything, my doctors were telling me and years of following what people said was healthy eating I finally convinced myself to do a very clean version of a ketogenic diet leaning heavily towards the carnivore side along with intermittent fasting and walking and 21 months I’ve lost 193 pounds and I have a blood pressure of a healthy 20 year old I’m often under 120/80. My cardio is great and I still have problems with osteoarthritis in my knees and a bulged disc in my lower spine but other than that I’m pretty healthy and I have no signs of disease and my new doctor thinks I’m crazy but ran a comprehensive blood panel and I’m not deficient in any nutrients. My cholesterol is slightly high, but, I’m not worried about it because I don’t eat any seed oils or processed foods or chemicals and I eat very very little sugar at all and no processed sugar, the worst thing I’ll have is a couple strawberries or blueberries, and usually keep that down to about a quarter of a cup. When I started, I was borderline diabetic and showing a lot of signs of type two diabetes liver wasn’t functioning properly and no matter how much I had I was constantly hungry. I had severely high blood pressure in the upper 170s and was on two medication‘s. All I had to do is stop eating garbage And I still eat well over 2000 cal a day some days over 3000 and I’m still losing weight because I’m eating the right foods and I eat two meals a day and don’t eat for 18 or 20 hours in between I try to get sun every morning and walk And I do modified exercises as much as I can with my back and knees, and it was simple. The hardest part was unlearning. Everything people told us was medical knowledge for all of the medical and nutritional advice. We’re always gotten people telling us we have to eat a bunch of carbohydrates every day that it’s a nutrient not a measurement of sugar telling us we have to have starches and grains telling us that honey is better than sugar and that it’s OK to eat sugar. We eat sugar. It triggers her insulin and try to shut our cells down until the sugar passes and .it sees it as a threat. So, if that’s how her body reacts to it, then why would we be eating sugar, it just doesn’t make sense from a nutritional standpoint we don’t need it if our liver is functioning properly it creates all the blood glucose we need from stored fat or proteins that we eat. But everything these doctors are saying is absolutely true, and the sad part is most doctors will say they’re wrong till you need a bunch of grains and sugary fruit, it’s insanity. Honestly, if the government cared about the people, they would regulate the medical industry and make them stop. They would throw away their deadly food pyramid, but they don’t care the FDA works for the pharmaceutical industry and the pharmaceutical industry controls medical schools so the Rothschild family and the Rockefeller family decide what to teach are doctors and they do it to sell you garbage food and meds. They only treat the symptoms, but never cure you because they see you as customers, not human beings, and they don’t care how sick they make you. Once I had learned all this and changed my diet, I fix problems that doctors have been working on for 30 years in months and it’s six months just weaned myself off my medication’s, and even then with a perfect blood pressure my doctors were still telling me I need to do be taking these meds and keep taking them. It made no sense whatsoever , so I ignored my doctors. I ignored all the nutritional guidelines. I ignored the FDA and six months later I didn’t need any medication and after nearly 2 years, I still show no signs of disease, and even according to my traditional doctor, other than physical damage, and my knees and back I show no signs of any disease and the only thing I can complain about is my LDL cholesterol is a bit high. Of course he wanted to immediately put me on statins, but I had already researched statins and honestly I don’t think they do any good they claim they do good because they lower cholesterol but lowering cholesterol doesn’t care, heart disease because it’s a very specific type of small, dense particle LDL that contribute to heart disease. The rest of it is all completely healthy, including the rest of the LDL and there is no clinical data proving otherwise, in fact, people that get off seed, oil‘s and eat red meat, seafood and eggs without the seed oil and grains statistically are about 27% less likely to have heart disease, it’s not the ribeye or even the bacon it’s the chemicals and toxins in plants that cause inflammation that damage your cholesterol and screw up your liver and keep it from processing your cholesterol properly, then it leaves damage to cholesterol which is what causes heart disease and it’s the seed oils that go rancid inside of you and take nearly 2 years to process out that causes this inflammation and there’s dad on this going back nearly 70 years and it’s been completely ignored by the medical community and the government and if you study it it’s clear because they don’t care they’re not looking out for your health. They’re looking out for their profit and the food industry and the pharmaceutical industry are a very close knit group of people and they created and controlled the medical industry and they’re the ones who lie to your doctor in medical school teaching them things that are wrong that make you ill and keep you dependent on unnecessary pharmaceuticals. Almost everybody that learns this and doctors who learn this and apply it to their patients, they find out that it cures people and eliminates the need for most medical intervention and almost all pharmaceutical products. Doctor should be fixing broken bones and giving you stitches not treating heart disease and diabetes and obesity and cancer and a bunch of mental disorders because 95% of what we call disease comes from eating incorrectly and causing too much inflammation and oxidative stress in your body and it’s completely unnecessary. You don’t have to eat those foods there’s nothing in them that you can’t get from clean, healthy meats and low sugar vegetables.
If I could, I would give you 600 thumbs-ups for your highly insightful and fact-filled posting. At first, I almost didn't read it because how long and densely wrtten it was. But, I gave the first few sentences a try, and I'm so glad I did as it gave me momentum to read your entire post. The only thing I would ever change on your post would be to breakup the entire story into about 15-20 paragraphs, thus making it more approachable for potential readers.

@@gbzorro it would definitely be better but honestly, I just use voice to text and kind of ramble out a comment.

Doctors shouldn't be treating heart disease and cancer, I've fuckNG heard it all now.... 😶 Yes poor diet can be a cause or a contributory factor to these conditions, and there are many doctors who dismiss that too easily, but don't be so stupidly simplistic. There's congenital heart disease, there's people who live on the healthiest diet and never smoked a cigarette who get lung cancer, there's mental illnesses with a strong genetic component which are inheritable (schizophrenia is one). Certainly too many people get shunted from pillar to post by (often overworked) doctors who have no real idea what's wrong with them nor interest in finding out , and just blanket prescribe meds that may be doing more harm than good. But the other side of this coin is the countless people who get told by some alternative guru their aggressive leukaemia or atrial fibrillation can be magically cured if they just chug the right amount of kale smoothies or adopt xyz diet, who end up dying as a result when the 'bad useless' conventional treatment would have saved them. Nothing is this monolithic, especially not the human body. A diet that produces optimal health for one person might make another sick because our metabolisms don't all work the same. A medication that has the intended effects for one patient may be useless or even counter-productive for the next. There's a huge argument to be made to make medicine more tailored to the individual and to have a heavier focus on what we eat, how we live etc in treating disease, but there's no one-size-fits all ; it also doesn't mean that so-called conventional treatments are never needed, and it doesn't justify demonising an entire profession. Going to far in the opposite direction and you get the crackpots who think you can get rid of AIDS with ginger and garlic, and then when they're finally consulting a medical professional at death's door when there's nothing more to be done take that as 'proof' that all of modern medicine doesn't know what it's doing.
I am proud to say... Colorado Garfield County RE-2 school district cooks hot meals from scratch everyday. Fresh produce salad bar They also bake their breads/rolls etc
Something I realized since the end of January and my carnivore restart...I used to spend anywhere from $30-100 a month of my food stamps, maybe sometimes even more, by buying cookies, candy, chips, pasta, cereal, canned and frozen pseudofoods, like Chef boyardee canned ravioli... Now I've been spending that money on getting ground beef, poultry, roasts, steaks, fish...and just 6 weeks in I'm feeling so much better When I showed my doctor my blood pressure log at my appointment this past Friday, 3/11/22, the doctor looked it over and he said he's proud of me, and since I'm diabetic the attending physician has to come see me too...when I described my dietary changes and that I've cut out sugar, grains and just about anything processed, he literally applauded me. Afterwards, I realized I was hungry (about 6, 7 hours after my breakfast of pulled pork shoulder) so I went to a gas station on my way home that serves hot processed stuff, like chicken tenders, but you can also get made to order burgers, among other things and I clicked on the touch screen and saw "no bread", and I skipped all sauces, and I ended up having just 2 burgers with some sauteed peppers and onions and topped with cheddar and dill pickles, and for a drink I bought a Fiji artesian water. Just 3 months ago my meal would probably have been a 44oz slushie and the aforementioned chicken tenders, and I probably would have added some fries or a fried appetizer and some ice cream or cookie thing for dessert, sending my sugar and inflammation sky high.
Keep in mind that the fat in beef and dairy products is 4-7% trans fats, which is #1 on this list not to eat. Other animal products (other than fish) also have trans fats, although not as much as beef.
I had a wonderful nutrition class for health professionals in 1986. I learned about all the above at the University of New Mexico. I told my parents to quit using trans fats such as margarine and vegetable shortening. I also met a scientist that told me that food picked early had decreased nutrients.
Exactly! Dozens of doctors never checked my gut health to diagnose my chronic illness. It was always “in my head”… After many years of no progress, I finally sought out a functional medicine doc to get a proper diagnoses…. Something needs to change!
I think this podcast is excellent, with lots of educational content. I like how he explains why we should avoid those foods and what it does to the body. His examples are clear, with a sense of humor. I could listen to him talk all day. He is a wealth of knowledge. His suggestions are hard to put to practice. For example, its really hard to get organic fruit in Asia.... so don't eat foods from the dirty dozen. Are there other alternative methods we could use to wash the pesticides off of the dirty dozen? Also, his list of foods to avoid favors a homecooked meal lifestyle, which can be hard to achieve if you are economically disadvantaged and time-strapped because you need to work multiple jobs to make ends meet. So, the conclusion drawn from this segment is that the current industrialization and modernization of food are killing us. So, we either need to make drastic changes to our food system or return to the rural homestead lifestyle of our great-great grandparents' generation, where they traded or purchased eggs, produce, or milk from their neighbor.
This has been an excellent podcast. Please continue to provide world class videos like this which help to better inform the populace because our government is not willing or concerned.
The government that is run by Corporate Hos!!! ALEX funded by Corporations write the legislation and hand it off to the Congress Critter that they have funded to get it pushed though. Lobbyists are more plentiful than fleas on a stray Coyote!!!
The govt. is about money. At intervals, it's about the people's welfare--we now in time period about the welfare of the filthy rich(FR). "Government" is a system--one owned by the FR; Typical Rethuglican rule. Got to get Dems back in charge.
There is NO indication that most of what is said here has ANY scientific basis - nor do we know how much training this Doctor has in nutrition. Some of his recommendations seem logical - but then using margarine instead of butter seemed logical too. Show me the double blond studies approved by the FDA that comes to the same conclusions. The problem is that you can study anything and come to a conclusion based on what your personal biases are. This is not world class - this is no better than the nutritional ads on TV where an old woman says she has Apple CIder Vinegar everyday and has lived to be over 100. The problem is - there is NO PROOF the vinegar was the reason for the longevity.
Go vegan to extend your life expectancy and avoid debilitating and fatal health problems later in life, to help the environment and stop climate change and support a sustainable food system, and to save trillions of animals from exploitation, abuse, torture, and murder.
Plant-based foods are proven to prevent and even reverse health issues associated with consumption of animal products, such as cancer and heart disease.
Totally agree with everything Dr Hyman said however I doubt it will ever change because EVERYTHING in this Country is driven by one thing - money. It’s going to be up to us to be our own health advocates and unfortunately not everyone can or will do that.
You are correct. Everyone is so used to "take another pill this one will help you" that we are not willing to change our lifestyle. We are addicted to all of the stuff that is not good for us. We are too lazy to change our meal preparations and learn to cook for ourselves and cook more foods with less ingredients. I like to eat plain and simple foods, like what the pioneers had to eat back so many years ago. There were no preservatives in those days, other than salt, it was used to preserve their meat. Hubby is more addicted to sugar than I am but he is learning that all that is bought isn't necessarily good for us. I have been over the years more and more addicted to sugar. We both enjoy these podcasts and I am happy to watch them and learn from them. THANKS!!!

Yes power increase with money but much is driven by ego so man will do anything it takes if they are that kind of person.....beyond money there are many evils and yes money is one of the tools at this time. With the power evil can be done without fear. It is why some of the greatest people are stifled and even ""the good people"" dont seem to care since they HAVE to follow money as IT IS the system. The more the printing press and inflation goes on, the more evil and ego will be doing it thing. Results may vary but the evil will remain in new history as in old history.

We are switching our property to a regenerative farmstead and hopefully a regenerative csa. It started 5 years ago trying to solve my daughter’s migraine problems and now we grow and raise our own food and hope to feed others. Plus it’s helped my adhd to no end.
Hi Dr. Hyman. I heard men after the age of 35 their Testosterone drops a lot and most men by 50 they’re really low. Maybe you can talk about men’s hormonal imbalances in the future. I hv a husband I’d like to keep healthy. You’re one of my most trusted physicians I trust and follow. TY! 🙏🏻
Tucker Carlson just came up with a great documentary about how to raise testosterone levels in men !!! LOL Just don’t do that though cos Tuckums is not a Dr !
This guy's right. Another important thing is that when folks hear that they should eat less ,automatically gives the impression that they are eating too much,when in fact ,you can almost eat ALL day if you eat the RIGHT things. Food processors are ALL about money and shelf life. You can do yourself a big favor by reading labels and staying away from too much sugar, carbohydrates, deli foods,preservatives,MSG and anything on the label that's NOT FOOD. An easier way to do this,is to write down as many foods that you know you like THAT ARE GOOD FOR YOU and prepare meals around that. Proportionate weight is not a diet. It's a lifestyle.
Thanks for saying these foods! 1. Partially hydrogenated oils, 2. High fructose corn syrup 3. Toxins (BHT), 4. Ultra processed food, 5. Artificial sweeteners, 6. Dirty dozen fruits or vegetables (have organic versions), 7. Flour, 8. Sugar, 9. Refined oils (not olive or avocado) 10. GMO foods (glyphosates on them). Names of sugars: barley malt, maltodextrin, corn syrup, cane sugar... I've been eating a little slice of ginger each day and I feel so much better and my lower legs feel "lighter" so my inflammation has gone down in my legs. I was very surprised! Yes, food can be a drug! Sometimes a bad drug and sometimes a good drug. Sugar is very addictive. It's not a good drug. Good to know that the gums can cause leaky gut. Gluten = glue! Good way to explain it. Food is medicine! I'll have to try the 10 day detox! Wonderful information about how to eat clean. I stopped drinking soda over 2 years ago. I worry about my kid's food at school because here in Minnesota they are offering free lunches to everyone. So far my son says the food offered at school has been the same as years before. I raise meat birds in Joel Salatin style.
@@technodust7833 Actually I haven't done the raw fresh ginger. This is "candied" ginger that was fresh. I doesn't sting as bad as trying to eat fresh ginger would be. It does really help with my inflammation. I only eat about a teaspoon a day. I know the sugar is bad but I try to rub off as much as I can. This way I can eat that much. I should start trying to eat it raw.
Mark I’ve been talking about these issues for 30 yrs , my family think I am a crazy! I love you of course not romantic, because u stand up for your great beliefs, u r amazing ❣️Thank you thank you, now I wish my family would be open minded and take heed to this subject. They must be addicted to it is why they don’t want to give it up :(
I am glad Dr. Mark Hyman clarifies at the beginning of the video that he’s not imposing any opinions or judgment, but what he saying, are scientifically and clinically proven!!! 🙌🏼 THANK YOU for stating that, Dr. Hyman!
Walmart has been fined on multiple occasions in multiple stores by the United States government for marking produce as organic, when in fact, it was NOT organic!
Thank you Dr. Mark Hyman. All your pop cast are amazingly important. Also I am so glad to see this pop cast, you and your invited using microphones and not the very dangerous wireless headphones. Well done. Thank you again Dr. Mark Hyman
I live in the UK and have been amazed at how many Americans say how much better they feel after about 3 weeks in the UK and that foods such as berries, veg etc also taste better.
That indicates that the food in the UK is somehow better/tastier?.. That's absolutely ridiculous, the food in the UK is on the same level as American food especially the fast food. I also live in the UK so I know exactly what I am speaking about. The other European countries Poland,Latvia,Lithuania,Romania,Estonia,Spain,Portugal,Italy all have a much more healthier diet than the UK and USA.......
I am 71 and started PermPro at the first part of menopause at 50. I still take it I'm normal weight, have perfect labs on everything, I've smoked for 50 years and I still feel great except for arthritis. I've had a knee and hip replacement, shoulder surgery and foot surgery. You would never know! I work 14 hour shifts at a hospital and I always get much younger compliments about my age. I'd love to try testosterone too. But I doubt my doctor would give it to me. I loved this podcast.
Dr. Hyman is such a gift to the world such a book of knowledge and to tell you not to eat this garbage hidden in our foods . He has done our homework for us. Again he is such a gift! Thank you Dr. Hyman for all you have taught me!!
I completely agree with this speaker! Due to a diagnosis, I had to take a deep dive back into nutrition after a 30-year “gap.” I took nutrition in college, but the info at a that time was based on the food pyramid. There’s lots of people who still have this image in their brains! I cut out sugars, went to “slow-burning” or low carb and high protein diet. I cannot digest red meat, so I have to work harder to get enough protein. However, over 4 months, I lost 60 lbs, and migraines, which I used to have almost every day, have lessened. My disease is genetic, so nothing can cure it, but the changes in my diet has improved my mental health and my overall outlook. Eating non-GMO/organic foods is just smart. Starting from the idea that we need to take care of the land, pollinators, insects that feed us. I get lots of eye rolls when I talk about composting and building yards that are eco/pollinator/insect friendly. So bonkers! Thanks for spreading the truth!
60 lbs in 4 months?! Wow! I lost 30 in 4 months but gained most of it back. But am educating myself quite a bit now, so my mindset is changing. I've lost 12 of the 20 I regained. But your loss is quite impressive, especially sine you've learned so much and are losing in a healthy way.
Let the naysayers roll their eyes and talk about how crazy you are! But you're NOT crazy.....you have seen the light and cared enough to change your diet. AND you're trying to help others live a healthier life, too! May God bless you. Don't ever give up!
I have been on a grassfed carnivore diet only BBBE, no fruit,fast food or carbs. I feel great , dropping fluid weight and lots of excess fat loss. I sleep so much better, no heartburn,no headaches,no stomach issues, my psoriosis is clearing up too. sugar is close to tobacco or street drugs as far as addiction...great video to go with i already have learned
@@vivian3371 that is BS. Carnivore is the best forever. Plants alone contain many toxins and are all Frankenstein man made sugar bombs. Greens full of oxalate etc…
I got Lyme disease around 1983 +/- a year. My Leaky Gut began around 1988. Lyme disease wasn’t diagnosed until 2013. My LLMD finally accepted my Leaky Gut about 5 years ago.
Thank you DrHyman for all the information you provide. I’ve learned so much from you in the last year. I’ve taken notes. I started following what you were telling us. It wasn’t easy at first but as time went on I lost my cravings for sugar & processed foods. I started making your smoothie recipe every morning to start my day off. In the last 13 months, I’ve lost 67 pounds, am off all of my medications. They were for my high blood pressure which I no longer have & my thyroid which is now within normal limits. I have 2 autoimmune disorders but they are now undetectable!!! I am amazed & so are my Doctors!!!!! I have never felt this good in I can’t even remember so thank you, thank you, thank you!!! I can never thank you enough!! I love these extremely informative podcasts & never miss any of them. 🙏🙏
Wow!!!! Incredible testimony! Thank you for sharing!!! Getting off prescription drugs would be the best part, in my eyes… and the weight loss is a happy 😊 “side effect “ 😊
I just found your channel and am immediately grateful. Knowledge is power. Thank you for giving me power over my body back. I wish more doctors were aware of this info. I bleed from my butt for 1.5 years and the doctors who saw me for extreme gastric pain did not help me at all. My insurance company also sucked. They gave me a completely inappropriate food list containing extremely sugary and over processed foods to eat which made me feel like crap. I finally found my answer here on youtube, implemented a wholesome diet and within a month my bleeding stopped. I still have bad leaky gut. I may have 1 formed stool a month. It's a constant struggle.
I'm 11 days into my first 40 day fast. I've just realised after listening to you that for the last couple of months I've been fasting due to my health. Started intimitant fasting eating every 24 hours. 3 days and 4 days. So 3 weeks ago, the Holy Spirit was saying I needed to fast. I agreed, obviously . I didn't know for how long. But I was willing. So for 3 days before, I kept getting 40, 40, then 1 day before my fast, he said fast for 40 days. I messed up the first 3 days as I had coffee. That was when I was told water only. So that's what I did. So I think I need to go 43 days. But your message has spoken to me greatly. I'm grateful that the Lord has made me stumble across your video. Thank you God bless

Naturopathic doctors are also excellent ! They are highly trained in Nutrition. I once visited the National College of Naturopathic Medicine. I was talking to a secretary there! She told me she like Naturopathic doctors better than Allopathic doctors! Her regulate doctor told her she would just have to learn to live with her blackouts! She was an uncontrolled Diabetic I. He took a blood sample and told her . This will not cure your diabetes. EAT , this , this and this. You are deficit in Chromium. If you are deficit in Chromium your Insulin will not work! She followed his advice and had no more blackouts! 🤗🤗🤗
So, so good..when are we going to wake up and educate ourselves about what to put in our bodies! Thanks for hitting on what if you can’t get organic, grass fed beef, a problem out here in the Mariana’s islands, but we beg the stores to please bring it in!
Dr Hyman is correct about the cocoon rats switching to sugar. I’ve worked in drug rehabs for over a decade and every single one of them used copious amount of sugar per day. That and energy drinks…
Congratulations my friends!!! 💙 I've been studying this dark side of the food industry since many many years... It's so unfortunate it took so many years for somebody brave enough to talk openly about it 💙 you are doing gods work 🕊️
Our food industry is in cooperation with the medical industry. We pay the food industry to make us sick, and the medical industry to treat the symptoms. THE CIRCLE OF -LIFE- PROFIT
This was a very good interview/question & answer session. Thank you so much for not putting a bunch of graphics on the screen that require me to look at the screen. I listened to this entire video while doing my makeup this morning. Great info!!
This is one AMAZING podcast. There is no PERFECT diet, there is no PERFECT system. We all age and decay regardless, but I really think that Dr. Hyman is pretty spot on with his guidance. He really came across sincere and humble and for me that says a lot regarding the direction for his wisdom. He truly seems to care for the people and not completely about his profit margin. And that very last piece of information regarding STRESSING over ones diet cannot be reiterated enough. Again, there is no PERFECT diet. Even the ancients, thousands of years ago when everything they ate would have been "organic" had diseases, ailments, inflammation, stress, cancer and yet each and every one of them died regardless. Do your best and take the baby steps you need to make the small gains that can get you on a better path.
I'm 70 & have very high BP, I got this information recently and I am trying to follow the instructions, I have yielded positive for results, doctors pile us up with medicines, increasing mg every time te blood pressure goes up without finding the root cause. Thanks a lot for this information
i hear very very good things about the strict carnivore diet, preferably grass fed beef, when health "things" start to suck and nothing seems to be able to fix the situation. especially the leaky gut, and the insulin resistance, high bp and such. all over youtube.
Stop-there IS a perfect diet-it’s the diet where you don’t eat poison. Clearly you missed the whole conversation. Your health should never be in the gray area--eat healthy food or die. It’s that simple. Being sick is not natural Food is necessary for health Health is balance Balance is peace. I wanna be peaceful.
PS-you don’t know what you’re talking about. This isn’t even about perfection-it’s about health And we all can’t eat anything and everything. Stop the madness Get smart Evolve
I’m changing my diet, started a couple of weeks after Doc visit. I can’t afford all my food to be organic, I soak my fruit and vegetables in water with a little white vinegar for at least 20 minutes I was told this gets rid of the chemicals on it. Is this true ? I am trying to make my way of eating much healthier. Thanks for all your much needed information.
Sounds great! Also peeling everything helps a lot too. Organic plants have natural toxins in the skin too as self defence & they are inflammatory for a lot of people so peeling is best regardless.
Health should be a class in school that everybody has to take, and it should include to learn cooking healthy food FROM SCRATCH!!! Hello America!! I am from Switzerland, we learn to cook, to knit, to do arts etc. and these classes are for everybody now, also for boys!
We did that in 50/60's . A whole day for domestic science , fabulous , we cooked at home with mum too , all my children can cook 1 boy , 4 girls , l taught them mainly because when they were at school they were not taught to cook very much . They all cook for the main part from scratch , we must tell our kids about nutrition , and all life skills for that matter , x
I have two boys ages 9 and 12, and the school lunches are horrible. I prepare their lunches most days. I have much room for improvement....as I'm learning thru Dr. Hyman. Thankfully, our boys love fruit and veggies. Gotta figure out substitutions for chips...the crunch factor and such is hard to give up. Lol!
As someone who's beaten diabetes through diet, I get my much needed crunch factor from fried pork skins and roasted unsalted nuts. I hope you and your boys are doing well!
So informative! I have changed some things - making my own mayonnaise, salad dressings, and nut milks. Several months ago I was on 18 meds and now have a pulmonologist, cardiologist, and several other docs involved in my care. Every day presents challenges but I am improving! Now dropping sugars (overt and covert) and dairy. Down to 8 meds and working my way through loads of information. Thank you for your presence on RUclips, Dr. Hyman. I am 'digesting' info daily (pun intended!)
Wow! How great it is that you have the time to study & point out the poisons we have in our foods. I am truly great full . NOW! It’s more important that you identify the better selection by brand name or alternative to select. Please keep our eyes on the healthy 39:21 choice. Most of us do not know the poisons we are eating. Please be our guide. 🙏

My Mom was given a book on nutrition by my grandfather in the early 70's there is a page on the adverse health effects of hydrogenated fats. So we've known for over 50 years. I recall reading it in my teens when questioning my Mom on why we couldn't eat nice things like my friends.
Read a book by Adele Davis a nutritionist 50 years ago started reading labels and stopped eating anything with transfat Educate yourself. Dr Hyman is the most doc out there
I have not eat any hydrogenated preparation, I don't eat or drink anything with sugars ( juices, sodas, prepared foods and others ). I Cook or make everything from scratch since I was 26 years old and I am now 76. I did not make a fuss when I was invited over to friend or family for dinners.

Over the past roughly six months I’ve been notified by my Primary Care Physician (PCP) that I’m edging towards being pre diabetic having to drastically change my diet and eating habits after so many decades of eating pretty much of anything I wanted. In doing so I’ve discovered much new information that I’ve payed only slight attention too previously now that I’ve been notified of this new health situation for me that threatens my well being absolutely shocking given how much marketing and attention is given to unhealthy varieties of food to consume. 😠 Conversely, it has come to my attention and educated me to the numerous number of regulated and health hazards associated with our heavily marketed diet that directly and negatively affects our health! How did we get so mislead and far off of the beaten path from striving to be and staying healthy? 😱 At this point in my life I have no doubt whatsoever that our lifespan is being intentionally shortened via our diet as a means of DEPOPULATION! 😷🤒🤕☠️ QUESTION EVERYTHING: What Is The Truth (WITT)??? 🤔 GYHOOYA: OYE!!! 😳😵💫😖
How often have you heard an ad on tv that said "Ask Your DR"? It has been on in homes for decades. The food ads all come from Large Corporations which have now become Multi National & have Little to NO Supervision!!! Not just Food but Pharmacueticals & Chemicals... NO Round Up in many countries but here even though it is listed as GCS (Generally Considered Safe) even after it has been proven to cause Non Hodgkins Lymphoma... The Cancer Industry sees us as $$$ walking in the Door!!! That is just one of the chemicals...
No need to jump straight down the nearest crackpot conspiracy rabbit hole. What it's about is plain as daylight, and that's cheap profit. Companies will simply produce whatever happens to sell, and unfortunately we're all hard-wired by our evolution to crave sweet and fatty foods, since such energy-dense treats would have been a vital source of calories in the days of our early ancestors. Junk food producers have no interest in purposely damaging anyone's health, they just don't care. Money rules.
Actually our lifespan is elongated due to medical intervention. Being unhealthy and having your life elongated by medicine for profit is the norm. It’s a money making machine.

If it helps, I’m 43 and was diagnosed with Hashimoto and had hypothyroidism as well. I went keto and it was the best decision I ever made. The weight melted off of me, my energy skyrocketed and my gut healed. It might work for you too.
Be aware that the oils that restaurants use in deep frying are often the same oils that they marinate meat in and are also the same oils that are put on the grill to prevent sticking of grilled meat. So, even when you choose a grilled meat from the menu, you are still getting a decent dose of inflammatory oils. It’s ok to ask what their cooking methods are, for your own health.

My Grandmother was a LPN. Way back in the 1940s and 50s, she was telling people to eat butter, not margarine, not to smoke, don't let doctors take out your kids' tonsils because they are there to fight infection and eat and drink real food, not processed food. This was at a time when doctors were smoking in ICUs, when docs were routinely removing kids' tonsils and cardiologists were telling everyone to eat margarine, not butter.

Processed flour not whole grain flour
Whole wheat flour is better than white wheat processed flour.
Grandpa lived to 98 and worked until the last two weeks of his life. He grew most of his own vegetables and avoided sugar. Never drank.
Good for him. He lived a good life. Instead of sitting in a recliner eating and drinking himself to death like so many do.
@@sallylawson6742 Well, he did have a recliner. A 1950's model. It vibrated with a powerful motor. But he didn't spend all that much time in it.
During the 1000 year reign on earth of Christ, it will be said they died early if they die before 100! Isa 65:20 Never again will there be in it an infant who lives but a few days, or an old man who does not live out his years; he who dies at a hundred will be thought a mere youth; he who fails to reach a hundred will be considered accursed. (21) They will build houses and dwell in them; they will plant vineyards and eat their fruit.
That’s awesome! I’ve been growing my own food for about 30 years. All my vegetables taste like there suppose to, grocery stores vegetables taste horrible! I’m trying to live like people did 100 years ago. Good luck and maybe grow some food.
My Mom lived to 97 and she ate tons of sugar her whole life. She did not have diabetes but her sugar was always on high end of normal.
I am a 70 year old female. Three years ago I was prediabetic and morbidly obese. At that point I decided to remove all added sugar from my diet. I ate a balance of protein, good carbs and healthy fats and today I am down to a healthy weight and I lost 70 pounds. As a result of eating healthy I also started weight training in the gym and I’ve gone from someone who didn’t enjoy exercise to a lover of fitness! Obviously, my lab numbers have all gone down to a normal range and I’m feeling the very best I’ve ever felt. If it was possible for me, it is absolutely possible for others!! Btw, I loved this podcast. Thank you for speaking out!!
Congratulations 🎊
Good for you,Eileen 👍😊
Way to go! Beginning this journey myself...it's not easy to start but with persistence, it gets easier! keep up the good work!
That is an encouragement
Way to go!! Thanks for sharing~ you’ve inspiried me!
I started intermittent fasting, cut out sugar in a big way (am eating some now, limited) trying to stay away from breads. I’ve lost 30 lbs in 5 months. I’m 62 and feel so much better! Eat what God makes.
God made bacteria , too . And fungi . More then 30 mill different species of fungi alone ! And viruses , his favourite . All that in only six days ! Attaboy !
I went low carb in 2012. Stayed with it & lost a lot of weight plus it reversed my T2 diabetes. I stayed with it because it dropped my triglycerides down to a good range & cholesterol flipped to a much better ratio hi density/low density. But eventually I started including fruits & lower carb veggies. But I keep waiting for the "I feel so much better" factor. I feel the same. I was always active, walking & biking a lot even tho I was very overweight. Im old now & it could be just old age creeping up on me.
Good for you! I did too at 68 last year while driving alone from Calif to Panama. Away from US grocery stores and restaurants. Now back, six months later, all weight came back. So now paying attention to what I want to be a long term solution.
I normally don't eat bread, but I do like it. As a treat; one day I cooked a small bread roll and soft boiled eggs in the evening. An hour later I tested my blood sugar. Horror it was 9.2. I was so shocked, I tested it again 2, 1/2 hours later, 9.5. Yicks it had still been climbing after the hour.
P.S. A banana sent my blood sugar to 8.5.
Buy a glucose monitoring machine. Use as the boss and if it says your blood sugar is high UK over 5.8. US I think is about 100, non diabetic. Don't eat again. Type 2 get as close as you can to a normal reading.
It is possible for type 2 to go into complete remission. Type 2 don't panic at Dawn effect. It should get better after a time. could take up to year. Most a few weeks.
All of this sounds great, but he pushes meat, fish, dairy and other known carcinogens in his PBS rants!
My mother and ten of her siblings all started having heart attacks around age 50’s. Their diet included Crisco and Mazzola oil. I realized I was at high risk for heart disease due to heart trouble on both sides of my family. My decisions were to really attend to my diet. In my 80’s now, and there have been no coronary events. Granted is is a study of ONE, but to me, my decision use olive oil exclusively may have spared me hospitalization and early death.
Happy to hear you're doing well & heeding good advice. I've been researching natural health for 40 years, & I've listened to my body to find out what it needs. I have the typical American diet (yikes), although not as bad.
Rarely, fast food or overly processed food, but the main idea is that I never eat more than I need to feel satisfied. That's the key. Too many of us think we must stuff ourselves at every meal.
Never hungry, never full is my motto. 😊
Oh, & I haven't needed a doctor in about 30 years. Prayer helps too!
God bless you & share your knowledge of good eating with others. 😊
Do you have any other nutritional advice that you can share that you have noticed that have greatly improved your health? If you do, I would personally love to read it. Thank you!
@@thecowboy9698 I try to listen to my body while staying current on research. Eg. Protein needs are higher with the aging process. I grow much of my own food which assures that it is organic. My gut is filled with microbes and so is my garden soil. All these microbes are in relationship. I can’t see the microbes in the yogurt I make but they live within. Much gratitude for small things.
Schools in Korea make real food for students. Soup, banchan(side vegetable dishes), some protein and rice. Kids in Asia perform academically better globally and i believe food has a lot to do w it. Bc gut health= brain health= good emotional & cognitive development.
You're right. There's also a link between gut health and mental health. It all goes hand in hand
It’s the GUT which rules the body
I absolutely Believe that! I mean depression and negative thinking, autism and Many other mental related problems most of the time stems from the diet their eating. I'm religiously firm with this Believe because i Saw a massive positive change in my psychological, mental en fysical health
@@Beetshelps I absolutely agree w you. My friend who has 3 kids has a pantry stocked full of cereals w every packaged processed snacks imaginable, juices in the fridge, yummy frozen treats in the freezer. Two of her kids has been diagnosed w social anxiety disorder; one is more severe than the other has to see a psychologist and is on Ritalin. I tried to tell her it was the food they ate but her “doctor” husband said food had no impact on their disorder. Sad.
Better to keep your slaves healthy
I owe you my life my friend. A million thank you. I lost my right leg due to diabetes 4 years ago. Today I visited my doctor he was amazed. My sugar levels never go above 7 even after meals. I have not taken any meds for about 3 months now. Before this I was just warn out, finished! Now I feel 35 again. (I'm 59) You sir are a Saint and an angle, thank you.
guitarrescue: Fasting also can eliminate diabetes. It resets your system.
Jason Fung, M.D.
Yes he's an angel with a great angle on diet.
Can you give me two examples ( or more if you have the time) of what your meals look like? Thank You!

Just met Ethiopian native whose father & grandfather lived to 110 & 120 YEARS & they ate ONLY natural NEVER touched PROCESSED food. THIS IS SPOT ON.
I'd never want to live that long.
Might be “alive” at 110
But in what condition?
I’m with you.
@faustinreeder1075 some people are active past 90. If you exercise to keep your muscles it's possible
Would't that mean that in the era before there were processed foods, everyone was very healthy and would grow very old?
@@faustinreeder1075in Ethiopia, extended families and community life make life for the elderly very enjoyable and comfortable. They are honored, served and looked up to. They would be active working on their farms or whatever, it going to church on the daily: but they never are left alone. So, it’s worlds apart from the lifestyle we have here.
I lost 120 lbs. in 1-1/2 years and never ate a single thing that was low-fat or fat-free! I stopped eating refined sugar completely and starches for the most part and did intermittent fasting. I have stage 4 COPD and wasn't able to exercise and still am very limited, but I married the love of my life at 70 years old : ) That all happened two years ago and I'm still amazed...PTL
Wow!! Inspiring!!
Congratulations!
I lost 40 lbs in 3 mths sitting on my bum, eating 6 bowls a day of chicken stew, + NO CARBS
Wow! Wonderful!
Eat bitter herbs and juice green veg like kale spinage brokely
One of the best decisions I made was growing my own vegetables and herbs in my hydroponic garden in my kitchen.
Wouldn’t it be great if we had a mandatory class in nutrition and food ingredients in high school or college ?
Yes I agree specially with the changing scenario .. GMO’s and preservatives .. as a layman people don’t want to know and even understand and also want to put effort to understand how much bad food can damage the gut and specially teens they do not listen at all .. !! School should propagate the mandatory nutrition education or I should say they should make it a mandatory part of education!!
In public schools they would teach a vegan, low carbon footprint, anti meat diet. Schools are controlled by far left zealots.
100!!! Also on growing your own food - herbs, plants, veg
It depends on who's paying for it. iIf bill gates ,, Pfizer or big pharma forget it they are trying to poison billions .... first of all who can you trust with your children 🤔 in Australia we don't have inough teachers they had to quit because of the poison jab the principle not responsible kids were herded in to buses to a football field marched through police officers to administer the injection no parent's permits required LOL 😉
For the PARENTS.
I agree with you, yet I must tell you about my grandmother. She lived up to 105 years. Even though she had arthritis, she never stopped moving. Even as she sat down, she was sewing or crocheting. She mostly ate oatmeal for breakfast, non fat dry milk, and fresh fruits. Her lunch was heavy: rice and homemade beans, an animal protein, and a little desert. Her dinner was extremely light. She was incredible. Never ate anything from a can.
My Grandma would agree, except for the non-fat part of the milk. She did not think fats are bad. Science seems to have proven her right. Basically, she said to eat real food, not processed. However, the non-fat milk certainly didn't hurt your grandma! 105, wow! Mine believed people should eat real food. I forget how old she was when she died but she was very old.
I took her advice and always cooked from scratch for my family. My two children, a boy and a girl, are both great cooks and do the same. When kids are raised eating real food, they don't want garbage, processed food. When they got out on their own, they both found out the garbage, processed foods just don't taste the same. I am happy about that.
Sounds just like my Noni who lived to 104.
@@donnagelina8548 sounds like my aunt Jiggy Sue . She lived to a ripe old age of 172 years . She would sit on the porch every morning talking about "the red coats are coming , the red coats are coming!!!!". Never knew what she meant .

I'm 70. As a kid my friends all ate margarine at home. We never did! We ate butter. My mother taught us well.
Yes my grandmother and mother fought about it and my mother used the oils. She was very low fat and she and my dad lived to 93 and 94.
I'm 57, my mother never bought in to the margarine insanity. We ate eggs for breakfast most of the time, and she would never take to a fast food restaurant. I was so disappointed as a kid when my friends families would go to McDonalds for dinner. The way she taught us to eat became habit for me and my siblings, now we are all healthy adults.
@@MrCiaranm I am curious how you butter girls have done with your eyes over the years. Cataracts? Macular?
Are they all dead now?

My grandmother was not a schooled student. She lived through the Great Depression in the 1930’s. She always made soups and meat with at least 3 vegetables. Also, she made fish. We ate corn tortillas and rolls. She had her own garden, and cooked vegetables from her garden. We ate spinach, cauliflower, asparagus, zucchini. She had orange, apricot, and walnut trees. She made Spanish rice and pasta in the soups. Any sweets where treats like once a week. We would buy sweets from the bakery. Everything was homemade. I was a child in the 1970’s and was taught to be grateful and appreciate the food I was eating. My grandma lived to be 87 years old.
NO CHEMICALS!!! No propaganda training with Better Homes & Gardens. I know it was a major influence on me. McCalls was in the house all the time. The ads made me think Dandelions were Horrible... Now I Know...They are amazing plants with amazing healing properties... Never have used any of those lawn chemicals...I can walk in the grass without soakin up any chemicals into my body... Funny thing Dandelions aid riding the body of those harmful chemicals. Use the roots for a part of my morning coffee, use the leaves to make Pesto for my one sprouted wheat bread slice sandwich.
She probably lived that long (may she rest) because she ate a lot of plant foods and limited animal products. What you might call a 'plant-forward' diet. She would probably have been healthier and lived longer if she cut out meat, dairy and eggs entirely, though. Of course, there are a lot of other factors including genetics, lifestyle and place of residence, and some people have lived until a ripe old age despite smoking cigarettes all their life. They are the exception, not the rule.
Similarly, people in Greece often live until old ages eating a mostly 'Mediterranean' diet with mostly plant foods and only minimal animal products. That doesn't mean the animal products weren't bad for them, and there are other factors in their success; these people generally live much healthier, more active lifestyles than in other cultures, and get a lot of the freshest air in the world. Their plant-forward diets definitely are part of it but they could be better if they were fully plant-based whole foods diets, proven scientifically to be the healthiest for humans.
Regardless, plant based foods are proven to produce better health outcomes in almost all cases, and are necessary for the environment and stopping climate change, and to prevent unjust and unnecessary animal suffering.
Go vegan for the planet, the animals, and your health.
And if you're interested, Dominion, What the Health, The Game Changers, or Forks over Knives
Those are documentaries. Sorry my messages are getting auto-removed if I format them in certain ways
If you don't believe me, research the science on plant based diets, environment and climate, health, and animal welfare. This is the scientific consensus.
Probably my two favourite doctors.
During my education I became very disillusioned with medicine, it seemed like we were treating symptoms not causes and serving big pharma.
Doctors like you give me hope that I will truly helping people. Thank you so much.
May God Almighty bless you both.
Treatment gets you paid, addressing causes does not. There will ALWAYS be a conflict of interest in medicine if there's a profit to be made
These aren’t doctors they’re fear mongering scammers lol
You’re a truth seeker…Dr. Mark Hyman. You’re the only podcaster on food science that delivers knowledge on a multitude of levels. Levels that directly affect our health, our economy, and our planet. Your knowledge on food toxicity, environmental impact, diseases, economics, meal planning, promoting single ingredient foods( i.e., the food item itself), nutrient dense foods, and forbidden foods that are destructive to our health has taught me everything I need to know. I’ve watched all your podcasts and your panel discussions with other food gurus. You stand out to me Dr. Hyman!
You’re as the best doctor on the planet!! Thanks for your hard work and for remaining current.
What about dr. Richard Lee there are many dr. Andrew huberman there are a lot of extremely intelligent and good researchers out there
At 33mins in Mark nails it with the comment regarding the link between food and well-being ‘you don’t know how good you can feel’
I lost 45 pounds within 6 months. I deleted sugar, alcohol, white flour, eggs, pork, oils, fast foods and all of dairy. I eat clean now, more vegetables, fruit, beans, lentils, chicken, turkey and fish and home made meals at all times. I feel great and my blood tests have proven that we could get better if we change our foods. I find that for four problems that I had and was on medicine, now I'm off all medicines and living life with joy and no pain mentally or physically. Life is good, let's treat our bodies with respect!
Why eggs?
I've been following the Medical Medium, Anthony William and he stated that eggs feed pathogens and it should be the number one item to delete off our list to eat. I have done that and I don't get colds any longer and my cholesterol went down over 50 numbers within 6 months. There are many other foods that provide great protein so eggs are no longer in my menu. Especially those that suffer from Epstein Barr virus, the eggs feed that virus big time. Wishing you the Best of health!@@tbone5040
Europe has BANNED so many foods and no longer sell them. America however keeps selling all this junk . It pisses me off. They’ve even ruined our bread. I read that a woman who has digestive problems due to our bread here in America. She moved to Europe and noticed that she had no digestive problems at all eating the bread there. Europe has fresh baked bread stores on every corner there. I try to buy organic as much as possible. It does make a difference I’ve noticed.
Bread from the store has a weird sweet smell to me post covid.
In Europe most countries don't allow genetically modified (GMO) foods to be cultivated. So the wheat flour in their bread his from wheat grown without genetic modification like we used to do years ago. So that's one main difference. The way to get around that here is to buy gluten free bread because the grains used in making that bread doesn't contain any wheat or other GMO flour.
A few years back EU outlawed Round Up. I hope they did not cave into Bayer/Monsanto. A little additional information...Monsanto was the maker of DDT & Cholordane which were War Chemicals that were repurposed after WWII to fumigate Wheat & other grain elevators after the War as when the War ended their markets dried up... Thanks to Rachel Carson's book Silent Spring in 1962 those chemicals are not allowed to be used here but they are still made & used on Produce in other countries & those crops are shipped back here. What a WASTE of RESOURCES!!! Big Pharma like Sick People though...keeps those temples to Sick Care Open!!!
Just remember the sicker Americans are the more $$$$ the US Healthcare system makes! Follow the money! In European countries , the government is paying for your healthcare ! They don't want you to get sick ! In France if you smoke you pay higher taxes! They don't want you to get Lung Cancer! Makes sense to me!
You can thank republicans and conservatives for that. Because companies having “freedom” is more important

I was a sugar addicted for 3quarter of my 55yrs life before December 2022, got some questions why I experienced different bad symptoms, googled my questions and change my total eating lifestyle to KETO and lots of symptoms changed for the good. God gave me wisdom and opened my eyes! We need to learn to read all food labels.
I'm 28 just started watching what I eat due to health problems. I used to junk out and was at 240+lbs felt sluggish and was depressed. In the last 7 months I started eating healthy researching everything I was eating and when I was supposed to eat it and now I feel healthier and am at a healthy weight 180lbs never realized how much more energized and happy I could feel just by eating healthy
Wow 60 lbs in 7 months thats incredible
@@A_D624 it was a lot of hard work. Instead of eating junk food and switching to fruit and salads instead biking everyday to work although not too far. It sucked but my stomach has shrunk as well.

@@RiceHatSamurai nice but my story was that I was 235 in my mid 30s and now I am 175 and I eat very little meat and eggs Lol also I took 2 years to lose that in a slow transition. I feel amazing and can't believe people are eating like they do.

My husband was a chef, so our kids didn't eat a lot of processed foods. Picture this, end of the first day of school, I start to ask the usual how was your day... My oldest son, "Mom, I think the school is trying to kill us. That lunch was not food". They never bought lunch at school again. If they forgot their lunch at home, they would refuse to eat. Bonus tip from hubby: want your kids to eat veggies? Blend them into sauces. Lol, they never knew they were eating tomatoes, squash , carrots, onions, etc. in their spaghetti!
Oxalates, Phytic acid, Lectins... no wonder we have to trick our kids into eating them.
Still doing this and my kids are 24 ,23 and 19
I mean pasta sauce is not sauce without onions, carrots and celery
You know I don’t like the texture of carrots and onions since I was a kid, but I understand that food especially meat just is not tasty without onions and carrots, so I blend it or dice it into very small pieces
Plant based diets are scientifically proven to be the healthiest, best for the environment, and most ethical. Go vegan
What a great podcast. Thank you! Dr. Hyman is amazing. When he mentioned the families living on food stamps that had never eaten a cooked meal in their lives, it reminded me of an incident that I would never forget as long as I live. When my daughter was a freshman (in a a ivy-league university, mind you!), my wife made some dinner for us and my daughter's room-mate had never seen real potatoes before in her life!!!!! She thought they came in plastic bags already in small sticks ready to be eaten!!!!! True story!
True. And also sad...
True story !

Wouldn't it be great if nutrition were taught in medical school more than just a short lecture, but a real class!
Not if it
was taught accordin
g to the FDA standards.
Yes. When I was in medical school, we had one lecture on nutrition given by a dietician who obviously didn't know anything about biochemistry or physiology but was simply reading off the list of "approved" recomendations.
Real nutrition knowledge is counter productive to the pharmaceutical industry. If " medication" WORKED you would NOT NEED REFILLS....
For the same reason your FDA is a joke you also are not taught nutrition. But don't worry. I have faith in the people. They will figure out a way to make governemt oversight actually work with more government.
I asked my old Doctor in his 70's why the younger Doctors of today seem to lack the knowledge of what Doctors had 40 and 50 years ago, he told me that today the medical students do not receive the same knowledge as they learned? To quote a young doctor? You don't understand what you are talking about is Old School we don't use that anymore as it was never tested if you have colon problems do not eat pop corn as it could find a pocket and start a infection? 35 years later I stay away from eating pop corn and other dangerous items and I have never had that infection at age 82?
LIMIT / MINIMIZE:
1. Flour
2. Sugar
3. Refined oils / Vegetable oils
4. GMO-food
Limit Grains too
And trans fat
And oxalate foods
Thank you Henric!
Thank you for summarizing my friend
I am from the EU (Germany) and here the idea is: the producers have to prove a food is safe while in America it is: it is safe until proven dangerous. Different approach to safety. Now, as a German I love my bread which I bake myself and is made using sour dough, over between 24-48 hours time. There is no way I am giving up my sour dough bread! It is the quantity you eat and the quality you eat.
Where did you get your starter from and how do you make sour dough bread ?
@@marianking1379 You make your own starter. It is the easiest thing in the world: bread flour, water and time. There are many RUclips videos explaing how it is done and baking bread is not difficult.
When he mentioned that a family can cook a dinner of chicken, potatoes and salad for less money than eating at McDonald's, I thought about another factor - we have become a country that for a large percentage of the population, both parents need to work in order to pay for raising a family. This is where parents don't have time to cook. I think that's a large contributing factor to the issue of eating processed foods.
It's not crispy, but that particular meal works very well in a crockpot! Due to serious food sensitivities with 2 in my family not able to eat wheat, dairy and eggs (it's rough!), using a crockpot when I have to work long days has been so helpful. Saves money, too. I wish you well!
You are correct. Especially since the pandemic. People cook for yourselves. Restaurant food, even the best restaurants, are poisons. Stop eating in them & getting take out. COOK 4 YOURSELVES!

Man I wish I could speak as eloquently as Dr Hyman and his food evangelism is amazing. His words are So, so true!
I was in large ketosis. I ate ONE SLICE OF PIZZA. It knocked me out of ketosis for several days. DO NOT EAT RESTAURANT FOOD! Cook for yourself.
YES !!!!!!!❤
I agree! We need to cook our own food with quality ingredients. In most cases, it's even cheaper!
I mean yeah, but you could have made a homemade slice of pizza with great quality ingredients and it still would have knocked you out of ketosis for several days because that’s just how ketosis and carbs work
This is so true my husband died at 55 from a massive heart attack. Every day when he came home from school when he was a kid he ate 1/2 a package of oreo cookies every day. My mom rarely bought us treats. I am 61 and still very healthy. I ate a lot of home grown food as a kid and all of the kids in my family are healthy today. I can say thank you Mom for a taking care of us.
Is whole wheat bread bad as well?
I checked the ingredients of advertised wheat bread and all that I found was mostly white bread with some whole wheat mixed in.
@June Brezgis I always say Oreos are poison. I may rarely eat a couple but I say this out loud each time I put one in my mouth. Kinda kills the appetite.
Get yourself a glucose
Meter and test one hour before and after eating to see how foods effect blood sugar. Walmart has tester and 100 test strips for $18.00 each. Worth it!
Yes....always read the ingredients list. I don't eat any kind of "flour" and it's made a great difference in my health.
Yes , whole wheat bread is bad too !
You don't even have to ban foods, just educate people starting from K through 12 about nutrition. When these junk food companies lose profit they will change.
The problem is we have educated them. There is much disagreement on which foods to recommend. It’s extremely controversial in the USA
Controversy is something that's entertained not an actual condition.
Well the problem there is our public school system is no longer used to educate it is used to brainwash and indoctrinate and the do just that by "educating" them with health information that is exactly the opposite of what is healthy.
@@ihartsacto yep....veganism is the worldwide communism/UN diet.
Anything promoted by government is something we should blindly believe...duh
Then vegans pretend like they're fighting the system when they ARE the system...
You can swap the term "vegan" for "leftist" and it also makes sense...but then again, i've never met a vegan who wasn't a self hating , white guilt leftist atheist scumbag.

I'm a teacher and I can tell you that school lunches are now extremely unhealthy. For several years now, everything they serve is processed and microwaved. Our school provides free breakfast and lunch. The only thing that is considered healthy is fruit and an occasional salad or broccoli (even though the broccoli is frozen). We now see a higher level of ADHD, ADD, and obesity in children. Yet, the schools claim that what they serve is healthy and nutritious. What will it take to serve really healthy and nutritious foods to kids? It probably won't happen because the free lunches are government funded. Additionally, most kids go home to eat fast food for dinner, and most go home to play video games and rarely play outside. Very sad.
U are sadly so right And nursing homes and prisons and hospitals etc
AMEN, my granddaughter and I were talking about that just a few days ago and we were wondering where does our tax money go for the school's healthy food that they claim to be serving, she has 2 kid's in school and neither one of them likes to eat the stuff their school's serve. When I was in school we are just like we did at home all nutrition food, The people need to protest against the school's and government and see if they can get the food that they pay for with their hard earned money.
That happened with Michelle Obama's lunch program. Although, I think she meant well but the schools couldn't afford the diet as she envisioned, so they interpreted it to fit their budget.
Everything you said is true except the fact that there is nothing wrong with frozen broccoli. All frozen vegetables are only blanched. Nothing added and nothing processed.
First Lady Mrs. Obama tried her best to change school lunches.
21 months ago I stopped eating sugars, starches and all green products and processed food. I did that strictly for about six months and by that time at cured all of my disease and gotten rid of all of my medication. I added some low sugar fruits in very small quantities, but I stick with the, low sugar, vegetables, the cruciferous vegetables, leafy greens, squash, avocado, tomato, onions, peppers, and mushrooms, and I eat moderate to small amounts of these accenting, a core diet of grass fed beef, pasture, raised, chicken, eggs, and wild, caught seafood. I use only avocado oil, and occasionally a good source, cold, pressed olive oil And will have a little dairy, cheese, sour cream that I used to make ranch dressing with avocado oil and eggs and lemon juice and mustard as a mayonnaise base with different spices and this has been my diet for 21 months. Before I started, I was 433 pounds and pretty severe heart disease and was on two medication’s and for the last year or so had been eating exactly what my doctors were telling me to starting out every morning with a yogurt smoothie with a whole apple, a whole banana, kale, honey and mixed frozen fruit that had mango peach, strawberries, and pineapple in it along with oatmeal because my doctors were insistent that I must lower my cholesterol and over that last year I gained about 85 pounds doing exactly what my doctor told me to do and got sicker. I felt like I was dying so I decided at least I need to lose weight. I started a keto diet and made myself sick because I did it wrong, and the good part of that was that I started studying nutrition to figure out why I made myself sick when I was eating what should’ve been pretty normal foods. After a few months of studying and getting over everything, my doctors were telling me and years of following what people said was healthy eating I finally convinced myself to do a very clean version of a ketogenic diet leaning heavily towards the carnivore side along with intermittent fasting and walking and 21 months I’ve lost 193 pounds and I have a blood pressure of a healthy 20 year old I’m often under 120/80. My cardio is great and I still have problems with osteoarthritis in my knees and a bulged disc in my lower spine but other than that I’m pretty healthy and I have no signs of disease and my new doctor thinks I’m crazy but ran a comprehensive blood panel and I’m not deficient in any nutrients. My cholesterol is slightly high, but, I’m not worried about it because I don’t eat any seed oils or processed foods or chemicals and I eat very very little sugar at all and no processed sugar, the worst thing I’ll have is a couple strawberries or blueberries, and usually keep that down to about a quarter of a cup. When I started, I was borderline diabetic and showing a lot of signs of type two diabetes liver wasn’t functioning properly and no matter how much I had I was constantly hungry. I had severely high blood pressure in the upper 170s and was on two medication‘s. All I had to do is stop eating garbage And I still eat well over 2000 cal a day some days over 3000 and I’m still losing weight because I’m eating the right foods and I eat two meals a day and don’t eat for 18 or 20 hours in between I try to get sun every morning and walk And I do modified exercises as much as I can with my back and knees, and it was simple. The hardest part was unlearning. Everything people told us was medical knowledge for all of the medical and nutritional advice. We’re always gotten people telling us we have to eat a bunch of carbohydrates every day that it’s a nutrient not a measurement of sugar telling us we have to have starches and grains telling us that honey is better than sugar and that it’s OK to eat sugar. We eat sugar. It triggers her insulin and try to shut our cells down until the sugar passes and .it sees it as a threat. So, if that’s how her body reacts to it, then why would we be eating sugar, it just doesn’t make sense from a nutritional standpoint we don’t need it if our liver is functioning properly it creates all the blood glucose we need from stored fat or proteins that we eat. But everything these doctors are saying is absolutely true, and the sad part is most doctors will say they’re wrong till you need a bunch of grains and sugary fruit, it’s insanity. Honestly, if the government cared about the people, they would regulate the medical industry and make them stop. They would throw away their deadly food pyramid, but they don’t care the FDA works for the pharmaceutical industry and the pharmaceutical industry controls medical schools so the Rothschild family and the Rockefeller family decide what to teach are doctors and they do it to sell you garbage food and meds. They only treat the symptoms, but never cure you because they see you as customers, not human beings, and they don’t care how sick they make you.
Once I had learned all this and changed my diet, I fix problems that doctors have been working on for 30 years in months and it’s six months just weaned myself off my medication’s, and even then with a perfect blood pressure my doctors were still telling me I need to do be taking these meds and keep taking them. It made no sense whatsoever , so I ignored my doctors. I ignored all the nutritional guidelines. I ignored the FDA and six months later I didn’t need any medication and after nearly 2 years, I still show no signs of disease, and even according to my traditional doctor, other than physical damage, and my knees and back I show no signs of any disease and the only thing I can complain about is my LDL cholesterol is a bit high. Of course he wanted to immediately put me on statins, but I had already researched statins and honestly I don’t think they do any good they claim they do good because they lower cholesterol but lowering cholesterol doesn’t care, heart disease because it’s a very specific type of small, dense particle LDL that contribute to heart disease. The rest of it is all completely healthy, including the rest of the LDL and there is no clinical data proving otherwise, in fact, people that get off seed, oil‘s and eat red meat, seafood and eggs without the seed oil and grains statistically are about 27% less likely to have heart disease, it’s not the ribeye or even the bacon it’s the chemicals and toxins in plants that cause inflammation that damage your cholesterol and screw up your liver and keep it from processing your cholesterol properly, then it leaves damage to cholesterol which is what causes heart disease and it’s the seed oils that go rancid inside of you and take nearly 2 years to process out that causes this inflammation and there’s dad on this going back nearly 70 years and it’s been completely ignored by the medical community and the government and if you study it it’s clear because they don’t care they’re not looking out for your health. They’re looking out for their profit and the food industry and the pharmaceutical industry are a very close knit group of people and they created and controlled the medical industry and they’re the ones who lie to your doctor in medical school teaching them things that are wrong that make you ill and keep you dependent on unnecessary pharmaceuticals. Almost everybody that learns this and doctors who learn this and apply it to their patients, they find out that it cures people and eliminates the need for most medical intervention and almost all pharmaceutical products. Doctor should be fixing broken bones and giving you stitches not treating heart disease and diabetes and obesity and cancer and a bunch of mental disorders because 95% of what we call disease comes from eating incorrectly and causing too much inflammation and oxidative stress in your body and it’s completely unnecessary. You don’t have to eat those foods there’s nothing in them that you can’t get from clean, healthy meats and low sugar vegetables.
If I could, I would give you 600 thumbs-ups for your highly insightful and fact-filled posting. At first, I almost didn't read it because how long and densely wrtten it was. But, I gave the first few sentences a try, and I'm so glad I did as it gave me momentum to read your entire post.
The only thing I would ever change on your post would be to breakup the entire story into about 15-20 paragraphs, thus making it more approachable for potential readers. (Note how my reply is more inviting as 4 broken-up paragraphs vs. 1 dense one.)
In fact, that's exactly what I did as I copied your entire post into a note on my computer, and then broke it up into 18 total paragraphs, along with a number of indentations* and asterisks* to denote and highlight your especially key points. Because this will make it more readable for people I intend to forward your story to.
Again, thank you ever so much for sharing your story and this eye-opening post.

Doctors shouldn't be treating heart disease and cancer, I've fuckNG heard it all now.... 😶
Yes poor diet can be a cause or a contributory factor to these conditions, and there are many doctors who dismiss that too easily, but don't be so stupidly simplistic.
There's congenital heart disease, there's people who live on the healthiest diet and never smoked a cigarette who get lung cancer, there's mental illnesses with a strong genetic component which are inheritable (schizophrenia is one).
Certainly too many people get shunted from pillar to post by (often overworked) doctors who have no real idea what's wrong with them nor interest in finding out , and just blanket prescribe meds that may be doing more harm than good. But the other side of this coin is the countless people who get told by some alternative guru their aggressive leukaemia or atrial fibrillation can be magically cured if they just chug the right amount of kale smoothies or adopt xyz diet, who end up dying as a result when the 'bad useless' conventional treatment would have saved them. Nothing is this monolithic, especially not the human body.
A diet that produces optimal health for one person might make another sick because our metabolisms don't all work the same. A medication that has the intended effects for one patient may be useless or even counter-productive for the next. There's a huge argument to be made to make medicine more tailored to the individual and to have a heavier focus on what we eat, how we live etc in treating disease, but there's no one-size-fits all ; it also doesn't mean that so-called conventional treatments are never needed, and it doesn't justify demonising an entire profession.
Going to far in the opposite direction and you get the crackpots who think you can get rid of AIDS with ginger and garlic, and then when they're finally consulting a medical professional at death's door when there's nothing more to be done take that as 'proof' that all of modern medicine doesn't know what it's doing.
I am proud to say...
Colorado Garfield County RE-2 school district cooks hot meals from scratch everyday.
Fresh produce salad bar
They also bake their breads/rolls etc
Something I realized since the end of January and my carnivore restart...I used to spend anywhere from $30-100 a month of my food stamps, maybe sometimes even more, by buying cookies, candy, chips, pasta, cereal, canned and frozen pseudofoods, like Chef boyardee canned ravioli...
Now I've been spending that money on getting ground beef, poultry, roasts, steaks, fish...and just 6 weeks in I'm feeling so much better
When I showed my doctor my blood pressure log at my appointment this past Friday, 3/11/22, the doctor looked it over and he said he's proud of me, and since I'm diabetic the attending physician has to come see me too...when I described my dietary changes and that I've cut out sugar, grains and just about anything processed, he literally applauded me.
Afterwards, I realized I was hungry (about 6, 7 hours after my breakfast of pulled pork shoulder) so I went to a gas station on my way home that serves hot processed stuff, like chicken tenders, but you can also get made to order burgers, among other things and I clicked on the touch screen and saw "no bread", and I skipped all sauces, and I ended up having just 2 burgers with some sauteed peppers and onions and topped with cheddar and dill pickles, and for a drink I bought a Fiji artesian water.
Just 3 months ago my meal would probably have been a 44oz slushie and the aforementioned chicken tenders, and I probably would have added some fries or a fried appetizer and some ice cream or cookie thing for dessert, sending my sugar and inflammation sky high.
Good For you!! Keep making small changes, they have long term health benefits!
Keep in mind that the fat in beef and dairy products is 4-7% trans fats, which is #1 on this list not to eat. Other animal products (other than fish) also have trans fats, although not as much as beef.
@@broddr do you mean saturated fat?
Well done!
@@deliapfenninger4285 thanks
Why does this only have 61k views? this is so informative.
I had a wonderful nutrition class for health professionals in 1986. I learned about all the above at the University of New Mexico. I told my parents to quit using trans fats such as margarine and vegetable shortening. I also met a scientist that told me that food picked early had decreased nutrients.
They don’t teach any of this in medical school, folks. And we all know the reason why.
Yes, because they need patients
Exactly! Dozens of doctors never checked my gut health to diagnose my chronic illness. It was always “in my head”… After many years of no progress, I finally sought out a functional medicine doc to get a proper diagnoses…. Something needs to change!
damn speechless

Thank you for having these conversations! I appreciate it!
I think this podcast is excellent, with lots of educational content. I like how he explains why we should avoid those foods and what it does to the body. His examples are clear, with a sense of humor. I could listen to him talk all day. He is a wealth of knowledge.
His suggestions are hard to put to practice. For example, its really hard to get organic fruit in Asia.... so don't eat foods from the dirty dozen. Are there other alternative methods we could use to wash the pesticides off of the dirty dozen? Also, his list of foods to avoid favors a homecooked meal lifestyle, which can be hard to achieve if you are economically disadvantaged and time-strapped because you need to work multiple jobs to make ends meet.
So, the conclusion drawn from this segment is that the current industrialization and modernization of food are killing us. So, we either need to make drastic changes to our food system or return to the rural homestead lifestyle of our great-great grandparents' generation, where they traded or purchased eggs, produce, or milk from their neighbor.
Get rid of pesticides etc. For fruit/ veg skin...vinegar wash & OR, PRODUCT CALLED " L.O.C." MADE BY AMWAY....
This has been an excellent podcast. Please continue to provide world class videos like this which help to better inform the populace because our government is not willing or concerned.
The government that is run by Corporate Hos!!! ALEX funded by Corporations write the legislation and hand it off to the Congress Critter that they have funded to get it pushed though. Lobbyists are more plentiful than fleas on a stray Coyote!!!
The govt. is about money. At intervals, it's about the people's welfare--we now in time period about the welfare of the filthy rich(FR). "Government" is a system--one owned by the FR; Typical Rethuglican rule. Got to get Dems back in charge.
There is NO indication that most of what is said here has ANY scientific basis - nor do we know how much training this Doctor has in nutrition. Some of his recommendations seem logical - but then using margarine instead of butter seemed logical too. Show me the double blond studies approved by the FDA that comes to the same conclusions. The problem is that you can study anything and come to a conclusion based on what your personal biases are. This is not world class - this is no better than the nutritional ads on TV where an old woman says she has Apple CIder Vinegar everyday and has lived to be over 100. The problem is - there is NO PROOF the vinegar was the reason for the longevity.
Go vegan to extend your life expectancy and avoid debilitating and fatal health problems later in life, to help the environment and stop climate change and support a sustainable food system, and to save trillions of animals from exploitation, abuse, torture, and murder.
Plant-based foods are proven to prevent and even reverse health issues associated with consumption of animal products, such as cancer and heart disease.
Totally agree with everything Dr Hyman said however I doubt it will ever change because EVERYTHING in this Country is driven by one thing - money. It’s going to be up to us to be our own health advocates and unfortunately not everyone can or will do that.
You are correct. Everyone is so used to "take another pill this one will help you" that we are not willing to change our lifestyle.
We are addicted to all of the stuff that is not good for us.
We are too lazy to change our meal preparations and learn to cook for ourselves and cook more foods with less ingredients.
I like to eat plain and simple foods, like what the pioneers had to eat back so many years ago.
There were no preservatives in those days, other than salt, it was used to preserve their meat.
Hubby is more addicted to sugar than I am but he is learning that all that is bought isn't necessarily good for us. I have been over the years more and more addicted to sugar.
We both enjoy these podcasts and I am happy to watch them and learn from them.
THANKS!!!

Hi Dr. Hyman. I heard men after the age of 35 their Testosterone drops a lot and most men by 50 they’re really low. Maybe you can talk about men’s hormonal imbalances in the future. I hv a husband I’d like to keep healthy. You’re one of my most trusted physicians I trust and follow. TY! 🙏🏻

GNC has some great testosterone supplements
Feed him real food and he will stay healthy. Lots of meat and fat!
This guy's right. Another important thing is that when folks hear that they should eat less ,automatically gives the impression that they are eating too much,when in fact ,you can almost eat ALL day if you eat the RIGHT things. Food processors are ALL about money and shelf life. You can do yourself a big favor by reading labels and staying away from too much sugar, carbohydrates, deli foods,preservatives,MSG and anything on the label that's NOT FOOD. An easier way to do this,is to write down as many foods that you know you like THAT ARE GOOD FOR YOU and prepare meals around that. Proportionate weight is not a diet. It's a lifestyle.
Thanks for saying these foods! 1. Partially hydrogenated oils, 2. High fructose corn syrup 3. Toxins (BHT), 4. Ultra processed food, 5. Artificial sweeteners, 6. Dirty dozen fruits or vegetables (have organic versions), 7. Flour, 8. Sugar, 9. Refined oils (not olive or avocado) 10. GMO foods (glyphosates on them). Names of sugars: barley malt, maltodextrin, corn syrup, cane sugar... I've been eating a little slice of ginger each day and I feel so much better and my lower legs feel "lighter" so my inflammation has gone down in my legs. I was very surprised! Yes, food can be a drug! Sometimes a bad drug and sometimes a good drug. Sugar is very addictive. It's not a good drug. Good to know that the gums can cause leaky gut. Gluten = glue! Good way to explain it. Food is medicine! I'll have to try the 10 day detox! Wonderful information about how to eat clean. I stopped drinking soda over 2 years ago. I worry about my kid's food at school because here in Minnesota they are offering free lunches to everyone. So far my son says the food offered at school has been the same as years before. I raise meat birds in Joel Salatin style.
Hey! You mean a raw fresh ginger?
@@technodust7833 Actually I haven't done the raw fresh ginger. This is "candied" ginger that was fresh. I doesn't sting as bad as trying to eat fresh ginger would be. It does really help with my inflammation. I only eat about a teaspoon a day. I know the sugar is bad but I try to rub off as much as I can. This way I can eat that much. I should start trying to eat it raw.

I live in the UK and have been amazed at how many Americans say how much better they feel after about 3 weeks in the UK and that foods such as berries, veg etc also taste better.
That indicates that the food in the UK is somehow better/tastier?..
That's absolutely ridiculous, the food in the UK is on the same level as American food especially the fast food.
I also live in the UK so I know exactly what I am speaking about.
The other European countries Poland,Latvia,Lithuania,Romania,Estonia,Spain,Portugal,Italy all have a much more healthier diet than the UK and USA.......

I am 71 and started PermPro at the first part of menopause at 50. I still take it I'm normal weight, have perfect labs on everything, I've smoked for 50 years and I still feel great except for arthritis. I've had a knee and hip replacement, shoulder surgery and foot surgery. You would never know! I work 14 hour shifts at a hospital and I always get much younger compliments about my age. I'd love to try testosterone too. But I doubt my doctor would give it to me. I loved this podcast.
Dr. Hyman is such a gift to the world such a book of knowledge and to tell you not to eat this garbage hidden in our foods . He has done our homework for us. Again he is such a gift! Thank you Dr. Hyman for all you have taught me!!
Plant based diets are scientifically proven to be the healthiest, best for the environment, and most ethical. Go vegan
I completely agree with this speaker! Due to a diagnosis, I had to take a deep dive back into nutrition after a 30-year “gap.” I took nutrition in college, but the info at a that time was based on the food pyramid. There’s lots of people who still have this image in their brains! I cut out sugars, went to “slow-burning” or low carb and high protein diet. I cannot digest red meat, so I have to work harder to get enough protein. However, over 4 months, I lost 60 lbs, and migraines, which I used to have almost every day, have lessened. My disease is genetic, so nothing can cure it, but the changes in my diet has improved my mental health and my overall outlook. Eating non-GMO/organic foods is just smart. Starting from the idea that we need to take care of the land, pollinators, insects that feed us. I get lots of eye rolls when I talk about composting and building yards that are eco/pollinator/insect friendly. So bonkers! Thanks for spreading the truth!
60 lbs in 4 months?! Wow! I lost 30 in 4 months but gained most of it back. But am educating myself quite a bit now, so my mindset is changing. I've lost 12 of the 20 I regained. But your loss is quite impressive, especially sine you've learned so much and are losing in a healthy way.
Let the naysayers roll their eyes and talk about how crazy you are! But you're NOT crazy.....you have seen the light and cared enough to change your diet. AND you're trying to help others live a healthier life, too! May God bless you. Don't ever give up!
I have been on a grassfed carnivore diet only BBBE, no fruit,fast food or carbs. I feel great , dropping fluid weight and lots of excess fat loss. I sleep so much better, no heartburn,no headaches,no stomach issues, my psoriosis is clearing up too. sugar is close to tobacco or street drugs as far as addiction...great video to go with i already have learned
Soon you will need to change again. You feel ok bcs your remove fast food, white sugar, white flour...the fruit is only natural food.

Thank you DrHyman for all the information you provide. I’ve learned so much from you in the last year. I’ve taken notes. I started following what you were telling us. It wasn’t easy at first but as time went on I lost my cravings for sugar & processed foods. I started making your smoothie recipe every morning to start my day off. In the last 13 months, I’ve lost 67 pounds, am off all of my medications. They were for my high blood pressure which I no longer have & my thyroid which is now within normal limits. I have 2 autoimmune disorders but they are now undetectable!!! I am amazed & so are my Doctors!!!!! I have never felt this good in I can’t even remember so thank you, thank you, thank you!!! I can never thank you enough!! I love these extremely informative podcasts & never miss any of them. 🙏🙏

I just found your channel and am immediately grateful. Knowledge is power. Thank you for giving me power over my body back. I wish more doctors were aware of this info. I bleed from my butt for 1.5 years and the doctors who saw me for extreme gastric pain did not help me at all. My insurance company also sucked. They gave me a completely inappropriate food list containing extremely sugary and over processed foods to eat which made me feel like crap. I finally found my answer here on youtube, implemented a wholesome diet and within a month my bleeding stopped. I still have bad leaky gut. I may have 1 formed stool a month. It's a constant struggle.
Years ago you could only purchase food with nutritional value with food stamps. Soda was not allowed.
I'm 11 days into my first 40 day fast.
I've just realised after listening to you that for the last couple of months I've been fasting due to my health. Started intimitant fasting eating every 24 hours. 3 days and 4 days. So 3 weeks ago, the Holy Spirit was saying I needed to fast.
I agreed, obviously . I didn't know for how long. But I was willing. So for 3 days before, I kept getting 40, 40, then 1 day before my fast, he said fast for 40 days. I messed up the first 3 days as I had coffee. That was when I was told water only. So that's what I did. So I think I need to go 43 days.
But your message has spoken to me greatly. I'm grateful that the Lord has made me stumble across your video. Thank you
God bless

This was a very good interview/question & answer session. Thank you so much for not putting a bunch of graphics on the screen that require me to look at the screen. I listened to this entire video while doing my makeup this morning. Great info!!
This is one AMAZING podcast. There is no PERFECT diet, there is no PERFECT system. We all age and decay regardless, but I really think that Dr. Hyman is pretty spot on with his guidance. He really came across sincere and humble and for me that says a lot regarding the direction for his wisdom. He truly seems to care for the people and not completely about his profit margin. And that very last piece of information regarding STRESSING over ones diet cannot be reiterated enough. Again, there is no PERFECT diet. Even the ancients, thousands of years ago when everything they ate would have been "organic" had diseases, ailments, inflammation, stress, cancer and yet each and every one of them died regardless. Do your best and take the baby steps you need to make the small gains that can get you on a better path.
I'm 70 & have very high BP, I got this information recently and I am trying to follow the instructions, I have yielded positive for results, doctors pile us up with medicines, increasing mg every time te blood pressure goes up without finding the root cause.
Thanks a lot for this information
Plant based diets are scientifically proven to be the healthiest, best for the environment, and most ethical. Go vegan
i hear very very good things about the strict carnivore diet, preferably grass fed beef, when health "things" start to suck and nothing seems to be able to fix the situation. especially the leaky gut, and the insulin resistance, high bp and such. all over youtube.
Stop-there IS a perfect diet-it’s the diet where you don’t eat poison.
Clearly you missed the whole conversation.
Your health should never be in the gray area--eat healthy food or die.
It’s that simple.
Being sick is not natural
Food is necessary for health
Health is balance
Balance is peace.
I wanna be peaceful.
PS-you don’t know what you’re talking about.
This isn’t even about perfection-it’s about health
And we all can’t eat anything and everything.
Stop the madness
Get smart
Evolve
I’m changing my diet, started a couple of weeks after Doc visit. I can’t afford all my food to be organic, I soak my fruit and vegetables in water with a little white vinegar for at least 20 minutes I was told this gets rid of the chemicals on it. Is this true ? I am trying to make my way of eating much healthier. Thanks for all your much needed information.
Sounds great! Also peeling everything helps a lot too. Organic plants have natural toxins in the skin too as self defence & they are inflammatory for a lot of people so peeling is best regardless.
@@jessicarocks1329 The skins have fiber!!! which help process the sugars in the fruit...
It's good to know there are some really genuine doctors out there...thankyou for the education....Alexandra from Greece
I’m watching this a year later, but I watched this whole video. Great stuff!
The world needs more education on FOOD!! crucial
PLAIN AND SIMPLE...DR HYMAN KNOWS HIS STUFF.GOOD MAN.
Health should be a class in school that everybody has to take, and it should include to learn cooking healthy food FROM SCRATCH!!! Hello America!! I am from Switzerland, we learn to cook, to knit, to do arts etc. and these classes are for everybody now, also for boys!
No reason boys and girls couldn't learn everything together.
Hello 👋
I really miss the home economics class that I used to take many years ago.
The flour is poisonous also
We did that in 50/60's . A whole day for domestic science , fabulous , we cooked at home with mum too , all my children can cook 1 boy , 4 girls , l taught them mainly because when they were at school they were not taught to cook very much . They all cook for the main part from scratch , we must tell our kids about nutrition , and all life skills for that matter , x
I have two boys ages 9 and 12, and the school lunches are horrible. I prepare their lunches most days. I have much room for improvement....as I'm learning thru Dr. Hyman. Thankfully, our boys love fruit and veggies. Gotta figure out substitutions for chips...the crunch factor and such is hard to give up. Lol!
I do the same for my son. I have replaced chips with roasted spiced chickpeas…he has even helped formulate the spice to his liking.
Organic tortilla chips, blue corn are good
As someone who's beaten diabetes through diet, I get my much needed crunch factor from fried pork skins and roasted unsalted nuts. I hope you and your boys are doing well!
Those nutcrackers are crunchy kale when roasted in the oven is crunchy you could make some crackers
So informative! I have changed some things - making my own mayonnaise, salad dressings, and nut milks. Several months ago I was on 18 meds and now have a pulmonologist, cardiologist, and several other docs involved in my care. Every day presents challenges but I am improving! Now dropping sugars (overt and covert) and dairy. Down to 8 meds and working my way through loads of information. Thank you for your presence on RUclips, Dr. Hyman. I am 'digesting' info daily (pun intended!)
First time listener. Very informative. Really enjoyed. Thank you
Did he just say CELERY is FULL OF TOXICITY BC OF SPRAYING. I will have to look for organic celery.
I switched to celery flakes, and seeds as a substitute.
Yes celery sucks up toxins, only use organic
Trader Joe’s
@@InfiniteMindset99 is it Organic at Trader Joe's ???
Yep! Me too!
Wow! How great it is that you have the time to study & point out the poisons we have in our foods. I am truly great full . NOW! It’s more important that you identify the better selection by brand name or alternative to select. Please keep our eyes on the healthy 39:21 choice. Most of us do not know the poisons we are eating. Please be our guide. 🙏
TY SO MUCH MARK for sharing all of ur knowledge. I listen to you and Dr Ekberg all the time.
Your info about emulsifiers in nut milk really helped me pinpoint some health problems of mine!
Lervish
Dr. Mark Hyman, thank you very much for your time and for sharing your valuable knowledge with us ❤
I had a Great- Great- Grandmother who was born in 1812 . She died in 1902! She lived on a farm in Ohio. She had 13 children, 10 who survived to adulthood. Her husband was killed when a tree he was cutting down hit him ! She raised those children trucking fruits & vegetables! That company is still in business! Mattingley Foods Zanesville,Ohio - Fruits & Vegetables! She definitely had good Swiss Genes! 🥰🤗🇩🇪🇨🇭🇺🇲💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
My Mom was given a book on nutrition by my grandfather in the early 70's there is a page on the adverse health effects of hydrogenated fats. So we've known for over 50 years. I recall reading it in my teens when questioning my Mom on why we couldn't eat nice things like my friends.
Yes! My mother was the same. She made homemade desserts 😵 … the horror! We didn’t know how good we had it.
Read a book by Adele Davis a nutritionist 50 years ago started reading labels and stopped eating anything with transfat
Educate yourself. Dr Hyman is the most doc out there
Dr Hyman most knowledgeable doc out there
@@thecynic9232My mom made pie pastry with lard, some of it rendered at home! Boy, was that a stinky process!
I have not eat any hydrogenated preparation, I don't eat or drink anything with sugars ( juices, sodas, prepared foods and others ). I Cook or make everything from scratch since I was 26 years old and I am now 76. I did not make a fuss when I was invited over to friend or family for dinners.
Thank you. Thank you. I learn so much from you . I love your energy on teaching.
Thanks Doctor Mark. You're one of the best on social media. Right at the top with Drs. Berg, Ekberg, John Campbell, and a few others.
Best,
Fezzy RN, retired ER
There is a great need to improve food literacy, most visible in diabetes and CKD management and prevention. Thank you for all you do.
Over the past roughly six months I’ve been notified by my Primary Care Physician (PCP) that I’m edging towards being pre diabetic having to drastically change my diet and eating habits after so many decades of eating pretty much of anything I wanted. In doing so I’ve discovered much new information that I’ve payed only slight attention too previously now that I’ve been notified of this new health situation for me that threatens my well being absolutely shocking given how much marketing and attention is given to unhealthy varieties of food to consume. 😠
Conversely, it has come to my attention and educated me to the numerous number of regulated and health hazards associated with our heavily marketed diet that directly and negatively affects our health! How did we get so mislead and far off of the beaten path from striving to be and staying healthy? 😱
At this point in my life I have no doubt whatsoever that our lifespan is being intentionally shortened via our diet as a means of DEPOPULATION! 😷🤒🤕☠️ QUESTION EVERYTHING: What Is The Truth (WITT)??? 🤔 GYHOOYA: OYE!!! 😳😵💫😖
How often have you heard an ad on tv that said "Ask Your DR"? It has been on in homes for decades. The food ads all come from Large Corporations which have now become Multi National & have Little to NO Supervision!!! Not just Food but Pharmacueticals & Chemicals... NO Round Up in many countries but here even though it is listed as GCS (Generally Considered Safe) even after it has been proven to cause Non Hodgkins Lymphoma... The Cancer Industry sees us as $$$ walking in the Door!!! That is just one of the chemicals...
No need to jump straight down the nearest crackpot conspiracy rabbit hole. What it's about is plain as daylight, and that's cheap profit. Companies will simply produce whatever happens to sell, and unfortunately we're all hard-wired by our evolution to crave sweet and fatty foods, since such energy-dense treats would have been a vital source of calories in the days of our early ancestors. Junk food producers have no interest in purposely damaging anyone's health, they just don't care. Money rules.
Actually our lifespan is elongated due to medical intervention. Being unhealthy and having your life elongated by medicine for profit is the norm. It’s a money making machine.
@@giatasha2181 Sorry I would have to have some legitmate numbers on that. The cancer rate is through the roof, diabetis is prevalent in the population... Obesity is on Steriods, then we have the Multi National Corporate Food Industry that has Stunk Up the Country with all those endrocrine disruptin chemicals such as Syngenta's Atrazine that got a[[roved in 86 with little more than a 6 mo study as the Raygunistas & the Bush Pirate Family got the approval process for new products put in the hands of the Corp that was creatin the swill...thus this product that has been shown over 30 years ago to disrupt the endrocrine system of amphebians...changin male frogs to females...also the use of Soy Milk in baby formula & Soy is high in Estrogen...thus there are many kids that were fed through the WIC program & all that the moms were allowed to buy was soy milk keepin that demand goin for Monsanto's GMO/Roundup rodeo up & runnin. Then we have artifical fragarences in the detergrnt, body products & candles that are also Hormone disruptors. Those of us who were raised in families that shopped at the discount stores & depended on Food Stamps & WIC have had adverse effects that Big Pharma is Joyful about...the ol Ca$h is Mighty!!!
The Quality of our lives is certainly changing...
Thank you for this information. I am 42 years old and have fatty liver, high cholesterol and hypothyroidism. Need to lose around 40 lbs.
If it helps, I’m 43 and was diagnosed with Hashimoto and had hypothyroidism as well. I went keto and it was the best decision I ever made. The weight melted off of me, my energy skyrocketed and my gut healed. It might work for you too.
Be aware that the oils that restaurants use in deep frying are often the same oils that they marinate meat in and are also the same oils that are put on the grill to prevent sticking of grilled meat. So, even when you choose a grilled meat from the menu, you are still getting a decent dose of inflammatory oils. It’s ok to ask what their cooking methods are, for your own health.
Don't expect the truth!
I've learned exactly what you said,at least 90%of food in the grocery store is harmful.Ive gotten soooo thin in the last year,since not purchasing any of these harmful foods
Я похудела на 30 кг за год, перестав покупать вредные прлдукты. Привет из России
