Butter is full of things needed for bone health. I had degenerative bone disease in my right foot. Started in my early 40s. When I first switched to the human health 1950s British diet in the prologue of Good Calories I craved butter. Ate about a pound a week for months. And as I was no longer starving myself on lowvfat, high fiber non foods and the weight was coming off, I ate all I wanted. Then one day I was walking downstairs and realized that my foot no longer hurt. Forbyears every step had been painful. Just part of life. The massive cravings were gone by then. I was suppose to be in a wheelchair by age 57. Almost 67 now and I can hop on that foot. While my instinct told me it was the butter, it was not until years latter I understood that butter if full of things needed for bone health.

The key takeaways from Thomas DeLauer's video on "9 Foods with Scientific Merit to Help You Live Longer" focus on the importance of incorporating specific foods into your diet after the age of 50 to support longevity and improve health outcomes. These foods, chosen based on scientific research (including both human and rodent studies), offer various benefits, particularly in areas of cognitive function, inflammation reduction, and overall health maintenance. Here's a concise overview of the main points: 1. **MCT Oil**: Beneficial for cognitive health and ketone formation, suggesting potential to mitigate cognitive decline. 2. **Kale**: Offers anti-inflammatory properties, especially when cooked, which can help manage age-related inflammation. 3. **Blackberries**: High in anthocyanins, supporting brain health and improving memory and motor functions. 4. **Meat**: Associated with increased life expectancy, emphasizing the importance of protein intake for muscle maintenance and overall health in older adults. 5. **Goji Berries**: Have liver protective effects and can influence blood pressure positively, though their high sugar content calls for moderate consumption. 6. **Lime**: A rich, bioavailable source of vitamin C, crucial for cardiovascular health by preventing LDL oxidation. 7. **Chicory Root**: High in inulin, a fiber that supports weight management, reduces cravings, and improves metabolic health markers. 8. **Pectin**: An anti-inflammatory fiber found in certain fruits, beneficial for gut health and inflammation control. 9. **Milk Protein Isolate**: Might offer better benefits for older individuals due to its balanced amino acid profile and sustained protein release, supporting muscle health.

I've been squeezing fresh lime juice into my iced tea for a long time now. Regarding the chicory study, I don't think comparing anything to a maltodextrin placebo for health is a valid comparison, as the maltodextrin is obviously detrimental. As for meat, the emphasis on lean meat is unnecessary, because we need essential fatty acids too. We're pretty sure now that the saturated fat BS is just that, and the fat in meat isn't close to being all saturated-especially in wild / 100% grass fed.

There is so much scientific research done about a plant-based diet is good for anti and even reverse aging. I will stick to that. I was already Vegan because I don't want to support animal cruelty. But there are numerous health benefits for as well a Vegan as a plant-based lifestyle.
@ShaneMacrawly5 ай бұрын
The hard thing is to get calcium, certain vitamins, and be able to get enough protein. The main issue is majority of people who do vegan mix fat and carbs and say that it is healthy fats, and a lot justify eating copious amounts of fruit sugar. Unless doing heavy cardio, sugar really doesn’t need to be consumed that much, this is shown in athletes. Plant based may have health benefits, but it’s so hard to get everything you need, and you have to worry about toxins in soil, heavy metals, and other forms of anti nutrients. Unless you are eating heavy fermented vegan proteins, that have also chelation properties, it’s difficult. There are no complete sources of protein, just amino acids. Also, buying certain vegan foods are not sustainable and may not be in the best effort for animal welfare. Avocados, almonds, and many other things are grown for us and take away from animal habitat. I had to stop it personally because I figured my health was more important for my family and future generations, to develop health issues and have to rely on them later in life. Or not be able to walk my daughter down the isle, or not see my grandkids graduate. Doesn’t seem worth it. Also not sure if most people and/OR vegans are worried too much consuming snacks all day.. Oreos, potato chips, pringles.. just a few examples of bags and cans that are made for our consumption, that if the trash ends up outside can harm animals just as easily. Not saying that vegan foods are bad, just saying it’s hard and without complete protein mixed in the body it has a difficult time.

I just don't believe all the hype about health claims no matter where they come from. The biggest reason is everyone is different and foods that may be good for some may be bad for others.

The thing with these researchers and studies is that they are done on rats. We are not rats and our bodies and the way our bodies function is totally different from rats. It will be nice if these studies were done in humans. Don’t get me wrong. All the nutritional suggestions are excellent and very healthy but again. Our makeup is different from rodents.

In the China Study, in animal models, they could turn cancer on and off with 100% control, simply by adding or removing the milk protein isolate “casein”. Milk consumption has no real basis in the paleontological record. See Christina Warriner and Peter Unger.

Neither do most foods we eat today, especially GMO sourced food. So most grains are a no-no, right?

I’m gonna give you an expert opinion on why rodent studies are probably not the greatest thing to go on I have bred all kinds of rodents and other critters. Snakes eat them in case you’re wondering. 😆 If I run out of rodent food and feed dog food, they will be more likely to develop tumors. More protein. I have seen all kinds of different animals that have been given the wrong diet and developed all kinds of ailments. Too much protein to certain iguanas and it will cause all kinds of problems. Wrong diet to a monitor lizard that wants fat and protein… same thing. Some tortoises do great with eating meat…. Some will develop health problems. Fatty liver etc… Having said all this. I believe that unfortunately only studies that are done with chimps or some other monkey/ape can truly be something you could probably bet would be the same in humans. Just my two cents from years of experience with critters. We are not critters. 😆

What you think would be the best diet for cats so they can live healthy without developing tumors? Any idea?

Sorry, not a cat expert. I was just about to add to my comment that I do realize we are not reptiles. We are mammals, but I’m sure if you feed a lion a zebras diet they’re not gonna do well. 🤔 Reptile expert in case you’re wondering, with a ton of experience with those smelly rodents. 😆

Would you start pushing the meat! The best studies overwhelmingly have determined the less meet, the longer you live everything else being equal! The very top Longevity scientists none of them eat meat! It’s the KZfaq influencers who get paid to promote meat say it’s good for you!

I hope more people stop eating meat, maybe the price will come down 😊

"placebo with maltodextrin" you've got to be kidding me with that study 🤣 One of the worst offenders in modern day processed food industry and it is used for placebo against the group that consumes Chicory root? How is it not a red flag Mr. Thomas?
