    Hey everyone, based on some critical feedback, I should've said that fiber was associated with "lower" risk, not "reduced" risk, as saying "reduced" suggests causation.
    Nonetheless, in the video I repeatedly stated that these were associations, and we all know that association doesn't = causation. Also, note that saying "lower" vs "reduced" doesn't change the study's findings.

    @aquamarine99911 5 месяцев назад +7

    Wow, I've never added it all up before, but I'm getting 75-80 g of fiber from various sources per day (see details below). Every day! Is that too much? Michael, I know you eat a LOT of vegetables and berries, more than the amounts in these studies. How much fiber from all sources have you found is optimal for your longevity biomarkers?
    My daily details: 600 g of boiled legumes (basically 2 cans, although half of it is pressure cooked lentils), so close to 50 gm of fiber. 800-1000 g of steamed cruciferous vegetables, which gives me another 15 g of fiber. 150 g of green mixed salad is another 2 g of fiber. Quarter cup (200 g cooked) serving of boiled steel cut oats = 5 g of fiber. Plus 300 g of berries = ~7.5 g of fiber. This has been effective to cut my ApoB (cholesterol) in half - down to ~85 - from the crazy peak it was on a strict keto diet. I tried adding psyllium husk, to see how low I could drive the cholesterol, but was surprised to find it made no difference. Now after adding everything up, I see that it was basically redundant.

Canned wild Alaska salmon is fine, and sustainably farmed Arctic Char and rainbow trout. But even the tuna brand where they supposedly checked every can for mercury raised my mercury levels. I'll often combine the legumes with 50 g of chicken breast (15 g of protein), just to make sure I'm getting sufficient leucine. There's so much contradictory info coming out about protein, but my mildly compromised kidney function (eGFR) suggests I shouldn't overdo it. So I aim for 30-40 g of protein per meal, depending on whether I'm weight training that day. Roughly 1.6 g/kg/day of protein. But I'm not including the protein cruciferous veggies and grains, so it's probably more.

      @conqueragingordietrying1797  5 месяцев назад +5

      Hey @imtryinghere1, and not yet-beyond epi studies, I continually evaluate correlations for intake with many biomarkers, which don't currently suggest reducing fruit intake
      I've increased/added legume intake, but with a specific hypothesis (trigonelline--NAD--homocysteine--epigenetics), not so much based on this study. Results aren't in yet
      Potatoes don't historically have net positive correlations with biomarkers in my data, nor do they satiate me as much as other foods, so they're out, for now
