I’m on Whole30. No processed food, no added sugar, no dairy, no caffeine, no bread/rice, no fried foods. I am definitely feeling good and my body is now getting its energy naturally. My skin has cleared up and I don’t wake up bloated ever. I wake up refreshed.
@@Uknowngoitom_9786 I eat eggs for breakfast, maybe with some avocado or turkey bacon/sausage. For lunch sometimes I have chicken adobo (made with coco aminos instead of soy sauce) with cauliflower rice. I also like to make a sweet potato shepherds pie (can find recipes online). I use sweet potatoes in many of the dishes I make. But mostly chicken, fish, ground beef, ground turkey. Lots of veggies and also I have a fruit bowl that I prepare in advance for when I have a sweet craving with various fruits. Whole 30 is great but it does take some preparation. If you look up Whole30 on Google they actually do have a website with lots of recipes. Which I actually didn’t know the first time I did it a few months back. Good luck.
Is that a sustainable diet for the long haul? My understanding is that it isn't. This is why it is usually done over a 30 day period-- and not indefinitely.
@@pkp6791 it is an elimination diet. To see what causes stomach irritation, bloating, skin problems, inflammation, sugar crashes, etc. Once done, you slowly, one by one, start adding foods back to your diet. If it causes stomach distress, bloating, inflammation, then you have an idea of what that is, and you can make your choice there to continue eating in the future, or keep it out of your diet for good.
It’s refreshing to find a channel that isn’t taking about keto or carnivore ! 👍 ( no shade to people who benefit from that , for me I just cannot eat all that meat , we are all designed differently)
I cannot wrap my brain around the concept of carnivore diet. I think I would throw up after a few days. Or the other extreme, vegan.😏. Mediterranean diet for me.
Great advice! I've been eating this way for several years now and losT over 80 lbs! Never hungry during the day if I am grab a piece of fruit! With resistance training and about 5 hours of bicycling a week I have the best energy since my 30s! For breakfast i eat lentils mixed with oatmeal on top of a bed of greens with 2 cups of berries and soy milk! So full of energy for at least 6 hours of energy! It took me about a year too get my calories perfected. I noticed as I lost weight I needed less calories daily to sustain my energy. Plus my blood sugars became more consistent I never got on medication which the doctor recommended. Tried keto to first I didn't like the way I felt or my cholesterol no.s so ultimately whole food plant based was my final choice! For me it worked because I liked too eat a lot and within 2 weeks my energy soared and my blood sugars dropped below 100 reading for the first time since i was diagnosed!Thankyou for this content there are so many out there need this info!
I’m happy to find your channel. I needed someone to tell me directly what to eat and what not to eat, Not only that but explain the science behind it. I like the matter of fact, straight forward facts. Thank you Doctor 🙏🏼❤
She is speaking plenty slow. It's at that instructive, informative level which is a bit slower than casual speaking. If you can't understand, turn on the subtitles!
Quinoa has fiber and has a low glycemic index and glycemic load. Rice has no fiber and has a very high glycemic index and load. As a type 1 diabetic my entire life, if I eat rice my blood sugar very quickly goes through the roof, but with quinoa I get a very steady slow rise and drop over a period of hours.
OMG, tofu and nutritional yeast were not my two best foods together. Birth control pills, Nutritional Yeast & Tofu caused too much excess hormones for my body. Eating these 3 foods together is a yeast overgrowth waiting to happen. it was diasterous for me.
Tofu has phytoestrogens which block your estrogen receptors, so you actually lower your natural level. Eating animals which have received hormones to plump them up adds more estrogen to your body.
Soy phytoestrogens attach to your estrogen receptors, preventing you getting the mammalian estrogen you make and that which comes from the milk products and meat you eat. It does not raise your human estrogen level!
I’m so glad I found your channel it is by far my favorite all time channel!!!! I started on a spiritual journey and it led me to you. You are by far the best doctor by far when it comes to nutrition you have definitely done your research!! Way to go 🎉😊🎉
Can confirm that tofu is, in fact, less than $2. Prefer it over the look of quinoa. If you're making soup for 2 people it is a great option. Even lower cost per meal than chicken tenderloin and easier to flavor it how you want. Us westerners tend to sleep on it but maybe we should include it more. Which tenderness of tofu is best for soups by the way? From what I recall it was firm as it held it's shape but want to be sure I am not confusing it with extra firm.
Extra firm is better and it’s recommended to squeeze out the excess water for a few minutes so it can 1) help it main it’s firmness and not fall apart when added to soups 2) it will create space/craters for the soup flavors to be absorbed
Check out how much fat is present in the meats you are eating. Skinless poached chicken breast still is about 16 to 22 percent Fat. Keeping fat off your plate means keeping flesh, eggs, dairy off your plate.
I’m new too, and going to try this also… i be honest it’s not easy to lose weight, but following everything and take its from there.we are going to see it’s in our body changing for better…wish you luck too.🙋♀️
I have definitely had to increase protein intake in my postmenopausal years to maintain same muscle mass. My exercise routine has remained the same. Fortunately, I did not pack on the pounds or bloat out after menopause. It IS easier to gain weight, but easier to control if one goes INTO menopause at their optimal weight and health status. This is a bit of advice for young premenopausal women.
What are your thoughts on the PB2 low fat peanut powder? It is a processed food but might help people who eat peanut butter make the transition to a more low fat version of the peanut butter. There is an organic version with no added sugar, salt or oil. So you just add water to the powder and it turns into a texture similar to peanut butter but way less fat.
Where did you find that? Potatoes for .99? Im in Missouri.. I make a kale kiefer blueberry and beet beverage 4 times a week I may or may not eat that day depends. I eat eggs and meats a few times a week. I love lentils
My husband found a .99 cent sale for a whole bag of potatoes at our local grocery store in AZ. It was only available on Monday’s and we took advantage of the sale 😋
Can people with hypothyroidism eat tofu? I love beans, and are great the next day, make bean burgers all the time, add green peppers, onions, garlic, shredded carrots! So good
I know only that soy (and other "bad" estrogenic foods (because there's 2 types of estrogen) Is not advisable in diet of those of us who have had fibroids or are at risk of tumors, breast cancer. Did I miss tofu at first? very much!
What are your opinions on Dr. Gundry who says beans are bad because of lectins ? Its really hard to know whos telling the truth and whos trying to sell books. I would like to eat well and be healthy .... but what is the truth??????
Buy your beans dry, soak them over night in water, discard the soaking water and cook the beans with fresh water in a pressure cooker like an Instant Pot to drastically reduce the lectin content. Everyone is different. Try different diets and pay attention to how you feel especially in the long term. Whatever works for you is what works. Discard any diet advice that doesn't serve you and don't let anyone convince you to stay on a diet that is ruining your health. For example, I made that mistake with the keto diet. It messed up my hormones and I ended up pretty much hemorrhaging while on my period. I had plenty of signs before I woke up in a puddle of my own blood that the keto diet was a trash diet for me personally, so yeah, listen to your body before things go really wrong.
Thank you so much Doctor I’m your new subscriber and love your channel I came across it as a you tube suggestion n since then watched n liked every video Thank you for all your efforts to reach this information to us n help us build a string healthy lifestyle . I wish I could like your videos more than once they are informative well explained to the common man trying to get healthy Look forward to every video Thank you n God bless
Can you please talk about why blending food (not juicing) is not good?! There’s seems to be some debate that blending a smoothie still preserves the fibre.
Blending does preserve fiber. But the matrix that blocks the rapid absorption of calories is chopped up. But berries and low sugar foods (green leaves ) are exceptions..
Hello, thank you fir your education i have learned a lot, I never used food in can since they are processed in your opinion that is good for us to consume?
What would you subject for someone with imbalance hormones,to eat in take to set there system back on track, in to lose weight, which is a very big issue with imbalance hormones?????? Individual.
Well the question is compared to what and why does a person like them and what medical issues a person is addressing. Eggs are better than donuts or bacons in terms of nutrition. However if the goal is to eat protein and micronutrients and reduce inflammation, fat, weight loss and blood sugar, there are much healthier sources of food such as lentils and beans.
How do you eat the right amount of bean and grain like lentil, chickpea, and others when you try to control your calories while keeping with your macro nutrients goal? They are higher in calories than most food.
I’ve been told that tofu isn’t great bc it’s processed and it has a lot of estrogen…?? Plus I heard too much fruit isn’t good! As you said it contains too much sugar. But certainly fruit juice is very bad for you. Also, aren’t potato’s full of starch which turns into sugar? I didn’t know they have any substantial protein?? These are all things that are counter to a ton of other health professional’s opinion I’ve heard…strange.
Tofu/soy is greatly misunderstood by countries who don’t eat it as a staple food. It has phytoestrogens which do not act like mammalian estrogens. They are beneficial and protective when consumed in moderated amounts. Yes. Lots of misinformation from people who don’t eat soy. But Asians have been eating soy for thousands of years and still hold the world record for longest lived cultures in the world outliving by almost 20 years western countries who don’t eat soy. Dairy products account for 3/4 of how western countries get exposed to female hormones like estrogen and then meats and eggs account for the rest of the estrogen exposure in western diets. dairy is breast milk with natural estrogens fed to to grow calves to 400 pounds. But people don’t seem to worry about that. 🤷🏻♀️ If you ate whole fruit, it’s hard to eat too much as the fiber and water would fill you up. Plus it would prevent you from eating other foods and you’ll feel bloated and be going to the bathroom. Most people aren’t eating like that. Anyone eating predominantly fruit diet…fruitarians are likely missing nutrients. This is true with any restrictive diet. No food has everything necessary for health and longevity. Diversity is key. Juice… it takes 3 apples for a cup of juice. I am full after eating 3 apples and my stomach doesn’t have room to add more food. However most people drink a cup of juice and eat a full meal. It’s always easier to drink calories than it is to chew and hence if you eat unprocessed Whole Foods it’s always healthier compared to processed.
Great info, but Where do you live? In Hawaii, 1 lb lentils sells for 4.99 organic and 3.99 non organic. Potatoes are $1.69 on sale. Most produce is at least 3.00 per lb.
Is it unhealthy for me to eat like 3 apples in the AM, 2 large oranges at Noon, 2 Large mangoes in the evening along with my lunch and dinner ? Sometimes even 3 banana at night 😢
Eat according to your blood type. Meat maybe bad for some and not others. Wheat maybe bad for some but nonGMO wheat not bad for others. We are different genetically, no one shoe fits all. There is a book on eating right for your blood type, maybe beneficial.
Tofu is made of soy bean and my understanding is that soy interferes with the thyroid, therefore, not good for people with thyroid or hormonal issues, like post menopausal women and people with hypothyroidism.
And soy causes high estrogen. Soy milk and tofu are ok for menopausal women, but should be avoided by everyone else. I feel sorry for men who fall for tofu deceitful lies
It improves menopausal women's symptoms. Soy is actually quite healthy. It is only the western world that seems to have such a big problem with eating soy as meat is is promoted highly. In Asian countries, soy is highly consumed. Look at their rate of illnesses due to diet compared to western countries.
@@ivylovesrunningThe soy in Asian countries is healthier than what is available in US. Not as many added chemicals or preservatives. That’s the issue. Anyway, these kind of dietary advice must be tested by each person to see how their individual body reacts. Some may have issues and others not.
@@Healthyimmunedoc Yes true! thank you for taking the time to respond. I'm a vegetarian, been one for a long time. 1 cup of cooked lentils may be enough protein but doesn't fill me up. I'm also on a fixed budget (senior) and watching my grocery money dwindle in it's purchasing power. I buy red lentils by the 25lb bag.
Wow! Great. You can cube it and sear it with some cooking oil. It will splatter. If you freeze it and then defrost it, you can get the water out and it’s crisper. You can also crumble it up like minced meat and dry it up first before you add seasoning. Or you can add that to spaghetti sauce. You can also eat it cold like a salad. Or put it in a blender pulverize it with dates and spices and nuts, seeds etc and use it like a batter. It’s really flavorless but very versatile.
I do wish she would have addressed the concerns of soy in tofu for thyroid patients.. I would love to have tofu, but I have hypothyroidism but it is controlled by my supplement..
My doctor to me not to eat apple, pineapple, mango, watermelon and other sweet fruit because I'm diabetic obviously he don't know the positive effect of fiber!
Not to be a skeptic, but I always thought tofu was bad for you. I have a thyroid problem, and I’ve always heard that you should avoid soy like the plague if you have a thyroid problem or if you don’t want to have a thyroid problem. But there’s a whole lot of the world that eats soy and is thin and healthy. I always feel confused by this. I’d love to eat tofu because it is high protein and economical but I’m afraid of it.
Those studies were done in animals and lots of human studies have shown soy does not cause thyroid issues. It’s kind of like grapes. It’s toxic to dogs but people eat it grapes and raisin without issues. I personally eat some kind of soy product at least once daily and max 3 servings a day. This way I can eat other foods too.
I don’t think people who drink kabocha want to kill the germs in it. However if you are trying to sterilize your kabocha, I don’t think microwaving will work.
Im confused on the difference between eating a whole apple and making a smoothie with a whole apple and drinking it being worse. Its the same as chewed up apple. And i thought you said you blended kale and berries to make the kale more enjoyable.
Yeah I agree confusing. How about not following any youtube "doc" or person and look at major societal guidelines. USDA www.dietaryguidelines.gov/sites/default/files/2021-03/Dietary_Guidelines_for_Americans-2020-2025.pdf AHA:www.ahajournals.org/doi/epub/10.1161/CIR.0000000000001031 Focus on Table 1 National Kidney Foundation www.kidney.org/nutrition/Kidney-Disease-Stages-1-4 Canada: food-guide.canada.ca/en/
The truth which no one wants to hear is that everything you eat has both positive and negative health consequences. What about just eating quality food and enjoying and savoring the flavor? Sure health is important but enjoying your life with delicious palatable food is just as if not more important. If you knew you only had one one month to live would you eat tofu, kale, broccoli, or quinoa or would you eat premium chocolate, your favorite ice cream, pizza, Chinese food, fried chicken etc?
Why are the supposed "healthiest" foods the most expensive? Most people don't want unpalatable foods to eat on a daily basis. If my choices are limited to tofu, kale, broccoli, quinoa, garbanzo beans, etc. I would like to enjoy eating during my extremely brief time here on the planet.
I remind myself that my ancestors worked harder for their food, and had fewer choices, than we do today. For me, I am willing to cut back on the bad foods to have a healthier life, not have medical problems.
Soy is highly estrogenic in "bad" estrogens....those who have had fibroid tumors or risk of breast cancer. Fruit by itself is HIGH sugar unless paired with protein. I was hypoglycemic on fruit solo as a snack until someone helped me by suggesting a few almonds along with it . Eating excessive amounts of fat, is not the same as 1Tbs of olive oil with a meal. Not everyone should be a vegetarian, which after 3 years I stopped. Do your own research folks & make sure not to simply take advice from videos and the web!
Yes!! Most people need the”heme” iron found in meats… chicken, beef, fish.. iron from plants is not enough.. if only plants, people will need an iron supplement.. I get Very anemic if I only eat plants, and I adore vegetables!
Patients with breast cancer fed by estrogen are told to have 1-2 servings daily to fight a recurrence of breast cancer. As a patient, I’ve been told that by my surgeon and oncologist. There are many studies that prove it. Consuming edamame, soy milk, and tofu are a few great ways of using food to reduce my risk of getting breast cancer again, and I do just about anything for that.
Great content. The sound level is too high, competes with your narration. Also, this type of sound is distracting and too repetitive. Can you remove the background sound??
I don’t remember the background noise, but I always prefer no music as it competes w the content being delivered. Some you tubers have the volume so loud that avoid it.
I’m sorry, but I disagree with your discussion on eating excess fats. Healthy fats such as grass fed butter and olive oil, or coconut oil are excellent fats. Coconut oil’s medium chain triglycerides are better for our bodies. I avoid processed foods at every opportunity, and don’t care for heavy red meats. But I don’t avoid healthy fats as I mentioned.

Cutting processed carbs and sugars is definitely healthy. Whole Foods is how food should be eaten!
I appreciate that you teach us how to prepare the food!
*i've never felt better since starting the diabetes freedom program. Highly recommended!*

Quinoa and white basmati rice per cooked cup are about the same amount of carbs 40 grams
Yes but Quinoa has 9 amino acids which are necessary for our body.. Basmati rice doesn't have this.
Quinoa has fiber and has a low glycemic index and glycemic load. Rice has no fiber and has a very high glycemic index and load. As a type 1 diabetic my entire life, if I eat rice my blood sugar very quickly goes through the roof, but with quinoa I get a very steady slow rise and drop over a period of hours.
good information. the one thing I will caution is tofu if you have PCOS or high estrogen levels. tofu and soy products are linked to breast cancer.

Oh no I didn’t know that . I have ended
Tofu has phytoestrogens which block your estrogen receptors, so you actually lower your natural level. Eating animals which have received hormones to plump them up adds more estrogen to your body.
Soy phytoestrogens attach to your estrogen receptors, preventing you getting the mammalian estrogen you make and that which comes from the milk products and meat you eat. It does not raise your human estrogen level!

Cut out oils and the weight will come off. Eliminate high fat dairy. Potatoes with salsa. No butter, no oil.

Does the Doctor publish?
I don't know who to believe anymore. I'm a diabetic and if I eat quinoa, beans or potatoes (even refrigerated) my blood sugar skyrocketing...
It is important to lower the fat in your diet per the folks who wrote “Mastering diabetes’. I recommend this book.

I totally agree!! Hope someone can enlighten us!!
Definitely.!
Buy your beans dry, soak them over night in water, discard the soaking water and cook the beans with fresh water in a pressure cooker like an Instant Pot to drastically reduce the lectin content.
Everyone is different. Try different diets and pay attention to how you feel especially in the long term. Whatever works for you is what works. Discard any diet advice that doesn't serve you and don't let anyone convince you to stay on a diet that is ruining your health. For example, I made that mistake with the keto diet. It messed up my hormones and I ended up pretty much hemorrhaging while on my period. I had plenty of signs before I woke up in a puddle of my own blood that the keto diet was a trash diet for me personally, so yeah, listen to your body before things go really wrong.
Cooking beans until they're tender breaks down almost all the lectin. And a little lectin is fine.
What if you make your own bread? Are there a better flour to use?

Is canned food good??
Can you please talk about why blending food (not juicing) is not good?! There’s seems to be some debate that blending a smoothie still preserves the fibre.
Blending does preserve fiber. But the matrix that blocks the rapid absorption of calories is chopped up. But berries and low sugar foods (green leaves ) are exceptions..
@@Healthyimmunedoc thank you so much for your response and videos! Keep up the good work!
Organic Food is Awesome, NO CAKE! Unprocessed Foods are better
Thx for sharing 😊
Grocery stores don’t want you to eat less food and doctors don’t want you to be completely healthy
Hello, thank you fir your education i have learned a lot, I never used food in can since they are processed in your opinion that is good for us to consume?
Depends on the food. Whole canned beans no salt are a staple for me when I don’t have time.
I use canned no salt or low sodium beans and tomato products as I live alone. Rinse the salt off the beans.
What would you subject for someone with imbalance hormones,to eat in take to set there system back on track, in to lose weight, which is a very big issue with imbalance hormones?????? Individual.
Thank you Doctor! How about eggs?
Well the question is compared to what and why does a person like them and what medical issues a person is addressing. Eggs are better than donuts or bacons in terms of nutrition. However if the goal is to eat protein and micronutrients and reduce inflammation, fat, weight loss and blood sugar, there are much healthier sources of food such as lentils and beans.
Thank you!
You're welcome!
Could you please cite the source of the paper you show at 8:01 ?
I appreciate your channel and would like to read more. Thank you
How do you eat the right amount of bean and grain like lentil, chickpea, and others when you try to control your calories while keeping with your macro nutrients goal? They are higher in calories than most food.
can you recommend a cookbook?
Soya is a natural fito estrogen. If you do not want to gain weight read about estrogen dominance.
I'm starting to make smoothies out of veggies, seeds and berries. Do you think this type of smoothie is not so healthy as well?
I make those daily. Check Dr. Brooke Goldner.
I’ve been told that tofu isn’t great bc it’s processed and it has a lot of estrogen…??
Plus I heard too much fruit isn’t good! As you said it contains too much sugar. But certainly fruit juice is very bad for you.
Also, aren’t potato’s full of starch which turns into sugar? I didn’t know they have any substantial protein??
These are all things that are counter to a ton of other health professional’s opinion I’ve heard…strange.
Tofu/soy is greatly misunderstood by countries who don’t eat it as a staple food. It has phytoestrogens which do not act like mammalian estrogens. They are beneficial and protective when consumed in moderated amounts. Yes. Lots of misinformation from people who don’t eat soy. But Asians have been eating soy for thousands of years and still hold the world record for longest lived cultures in the world outliving by almost 20 years western countries who don’t eat soy.
Dairy products account for 3/4 of how western countries get exposed to female hormones like estrogen and then meats and eggs account for the rest of the estrogen exposure in western diets.
dairy is breast milk with natural estrogens fed to to grow calves to 400 pounds. But people don’t seem to worry about that. 🤷🏻♀️
If you ate whole fruit, it’s hard to eat too much as the fiber and water would fill you up. Plus it would prevent you from eating other foods and you’ll feel bloated and be going to the bathroom. Most people aren’t eating like that. Anyone eating predominantly fruit diet…fruitarians are likely missing nutrients. This is true with any restrictive diet. No food has everything necessary for health and longevity. Diversity is key.
Juice…
it takes 3 apples for a cup of juice. I am full after eating 3 apples and my stomach doesn’t have room to add more food. However most people drink a cup of juice and eat a full meal. It’s always easier to drink calories than it is to chew and hence if you eat unprocessed Whole Foods it’s always healthier compared to processed.
@@Healthyimmunedocdoctor thank you for tactfully answering the comment. Not condescending, but rather informative and factual.
Great info, but Where do you live? In Hawaii, 1 lb lentils sells for 4.99 organic and 3.99 non organic. Potatoes are $1.69 on sale. Most produce is at least 3.00 per lb.
Hawaii and Alaska have to ship foods from afar, raising costs. Eat more locally sourced foods, generally cheaper. 😋
You will save money when you’re not buying processed foods- use the cookie money to buy fruits.
I'm not too clear on how to take 2 tsps of vinegar a day without drinking it. If I mix it into my food won't it taste awful?
That’s the point…start slow and small.
Is it unhealthy for me to eat like 3 apples in the AM, 2 large oranges at Noon, 2 Large mangoes in the evening along with my lunch and dinner ? Sometimes even 3 banana at night 😢
No soy products, breast cancer - also starting a hormone/ estrogen blocker.
Now docs say phytoestrogens in soy are estrogen blockers. Estrogen in animal products have the kind of estrogen which is bad for you.
I'm allergic to soy. So tofu is a no go on my end, unfortunately.
What beans are safe to eat with gout ?
ruclips.net/video/0ksdjxzr1iI/видео.html
Eat according to your blood type. Meat maybe bad for some and not others. Wheat maybe bad for some but nonGMO wheat not bad for others. We are different genetically, no one shoe fits all. There is a book on eating right for your blood type, maybe beneficial.
You said the magic word genetics..

Tofu is made of soy bean and my understanding is that soy interferes with the thyroid, therefore, not good for people with thyroid or hormonal issues, like post menopausal women and people with hypothyroidism.
And soy causes high estrogen. Soy milk and tofu are ok for menopausal women, but should be avoided by everyone else. I feel sorry for men who fall for tofu deceitful lies
It improves menopausal women's symptoms. Soy is actually quite healthy. It is only the western world that seems to have such a big problem with eating soy as meat is is promoted highly. In Asian countries, soy is highly consumed. Look at their rate of illnesses due to diet compared to western countries.
@@ivylovesrunningThe soy in Asian countries is healthier than what is available in US. Not as many added chemicals or preservatives. That’s the issue. Anyway, these kind of dietary advice must be tested by each person to see how their individual body reacts. Some may have issues and others not.
Organic lentils are now $3+ per pound.
Yes. That can make 6 cups of cooked lentils. Which makes that 50 cents a cup.
@@Healthyimmunedoc Yes true! thank you for taking the time to respond. I'm a vegetarian, been one for a long time. 1 cup of cooked lentils may be enough protein but doesn't fill me up. I'm also on a fixed budget (senior) and watching my grocery money dwindle in it's purchasing power. I buy red lentils by the 25lb bag.
Thank you doctor I buy yesterday for supermarket tofu. Hopefully I like it. 🥰🌷🌻🎄🎄🎄
Wow! Great. You can cube it and sear it with some cooking oil. It will splatter. If you freeze it and then defrost it, you can get the water out and it’s crisper. You can also crumble it up like minced meat and dry it up first before you add seasoning. Or you can add that to spaghetti sauce. You can also eat it cold like a salad. Or put it in a blender pulverize it with dates and spices and nuts, seeds etc and use it like a batter. It’s really flavorless but very versatile.
I do wish she would have addressed the concerns of soy in tofu for thyroid patients.. I would love to have tofu, but I have hypothyroidism but it is controlled by my supplement..
My doctor to me not to eat apple, pineapple, mango, watermelon and other sweet fruit because I'm diabetic obviously he don't know the positive effect of fiber!
TqVm
Not to be a skeptic, but I always thought tofu was bad for you. I have a thyroid problem, and I’ve always heard that you should avoid soy like the plague if you have a thyroid problem or if you don’t want to have a thyroid problem. But there’s a whole lot of the world that eats soy and is thin and healthy. I always feel confused by this. I’d love to eat tofu because it is high protein and economical but I’m afraid of it.
Those studies were done in animals and lots of human studies have shown soy does not cause thyroid issues. It’s kind of like grapes. It’s toxic to dogs but people eat it grapes and raisin without issues. I personally eat some kind of soy product at least once daily and max 3 servings a day. This way I can eat other foods too.
Is using microwave to cook kabocha safe?
I don’t think people who drink kabocha want to kill the germs in it. However if you are trying to sterilize your kabocha, I don’t think microwaving will work.
Thanks you but I’m talking about the dangers of microwaved foods

Fruits are so expensive so hard to try to eat right but definitely gonna try get more fruits and veggies
Im confused on the difference between eating a whole apple and making a smoothie with a whole apple and drinking it being worse. Its the same as chewed up apple. And i thought you said you blended kale and berries to make the kale more enjoyable.
I think she may be referring to apple juice or juicing the apple. Best to eat the apple with its fiber.
Every doctor tell you a different thing. Honestly I don’t know who to believe.
Yeah I agree confusing. How about not following any youtube "doc" or person and look at major societal guidelines.

The truth which no one wants to hear is that everything you eat has both positive and negative health consequences. What about just eating quality food and enjoying and savoring the flavor? Sure health is important but enjoying your life with delicious palatable food is just as if not more important. If you knew you only had one one month to live would you eat tofu, kale, broccoli, or quinoa or would you eat premium chocolate, your favorite ice cream, pizza, Chinese food, fried chicken etc?
Eating too many foods in cans is not good. I suggest buying dry and cooking them and then freeze.
I’ve heard soy has impact on thyroid functions ……
Why are the supposed "healthiest" foods the most expensive? Most people don't want unpalatable foods to eat on a daily basis. If my choices are limited to tofu, kale, broccoli, quinoa, garbanzo beans, etc. I would like to enjoy eating during my extremely brief time here on the planet.
I remind myself that my ancestors worked harder for their food, and had fewer choices, than we do today. For me, I am willing to cut back on the bad foods to have a healthier life, not have medical problems.
Wow the Doctor smart!!!
But what about Lentils having lectin? Isn't that bad?
If its cooked it kills lectin
A lot of these foods are high in oxalates.
Soy is highly estrogenic in "bad" estrogens....those who have had fibroid tumors or risk of breast cancer. Fruit by itself is HIGH sugar unless paired with protein. I was hypoglycemic on fruit solo as a snack until someone helped me by suggesting a few almonds along with it . Eating excessive amounts of fat, is not the same as 1Tbs of olive oil with a meal. Not everyone should be a vegetarian, which after 3 years I stopped. Do your own research folks & make sure not to simply take advice from videos and the web!
Yes!! Most people need the”heme” iron found in meats… chicken, beef, fish.. iron from plants is not enough.. if only plants, people will need an iron supplement.. I get Very anemic if I only eat plants, and I adore vegetables!
Patients with breast cancer fed by estrogen are told to have 1-2 servings daily to fight a recurrence of breast cancer. As a patient, I’ve been told that by my surgeon and oncologist. There are many studies that prove it. Consuming edamame, soy milk, and tofu are a few great ways of using food to reduce my risk of getting breast cancer again, and I do just about anything for that.

It was better without background music noise
Great content. The sound level is too high, competes with your narration. Also, this type of sound is distracting and too repetitive. Can you remove the background sound??
Unfortunately no. However going forward, I'm taking the music off! Thanks!
I don’t remember the background noise, but I always prefer no music as it competes w the content being delivered. Some you tubers have the volume so loud that avoid it.
I like music. It has a nice rhythm. It kept me viewing the video longer.
Some people complain about everything 😢
Rice is cheaper than quinoa
I’m sorry, but I disagree with your discussion on eating excess fats. Healthy fats such as grass fed butter and olive oil, or coconut oil are excellent fats. Coconut oil’s medium chain triglycerides are better for our bodies. I avoid processed foods at every opportunity, and don’t care for heavy red meats. But I don’t avoid healthy fats as I mentioned.
Rinse first
Ugh, the music…
Yeah…I removed it going forward. 😊
...sounds great!
