Pickled veggies aren’t the same thing as cultured veggies. Vinegar is used in pickling but not in culturing. Big difference. Most of the studies you are referring to are about pickling which isn’t the same thing. True cultured veggies are made tangy by lactobacillus bacteria, which form lactic acid which is healthy. It’s the same bacteria that makes yogurt tangy (including vegan yogurt). Pickling on the other hand is made by using vinegar which is not healthy and is acid forming. Just thought I’d share my thoughts, I don’t mean to be controversial, I appreciate the time you spent putting this video together.

I just looked up the first meta analysis you talked about. It literally said the exact opposite of what you're saying. I don't know if you misread or maybe just read some secondary source explaining it but it literally concluded the exact opposite of what you said. There were individual studies included in the meta analysis that found negative effects associated with Miso soup, but it concluded that was likely cause of the high sodium levels in it not the bacteria. Here's a quote from the study you cited as evidence that fermented soy causes cancer: "In summary, no association was found between soy consumption and GI cancer incidence or mortality. A higher intake of soy product is associated with the decreased risk of overall GI cancer and gastric cancer, but not colorectal cancer. This protective effect was observed in females but not in males." Seems pretty straightforward to me. You need to be more careful if you're claiming to correctly represent researchers.

The other potential issue is that I don't think you're talking about organic. We're talking non-organic cabbage, non-organic red pepper, and perhaps polluted water, and perhaps microplastics in the salts. How can these studies indicate for sure that it's the fermentation process that's causing the cancer. There's so much wrong with these conclusions that we come to. Also what does the rest of the diet consistent that could point to causation rather than correlation. The fermentation could be correlation is supposed to causation.

First of all, gastric cancer accounts for approximately 1.5 percent of all cancers worldwide. Let's say for the purposes of this discussion that you have a 50 percent chance of developing some form of cancer in your lifetime. That would give you a 0.075 percent chance of developing gastric cancer in your lifetime. A 20 percent increase is a very small number. Secondly, I have to question the assumptions drawn by this study as regular consumption of salt preserved foods has long been listed as a risk factor. It could easily be the levels of salt used in those fermented foods effecting the results. Most people who eat fermented foods for health reasons use the minimum amount salt required to do the job. Thirdly, fermented foods likely have enough health benefits to counteract the miniscule increase in your chance of developing gastric cancer. There's much more to consider before anyone should be telling people that fermented foods are, "slowly killing you." IMHO, that was highly irresponsible.
@mustwereallydothis2 жыл бұрын
To clarify: Anual gastric cancer rates in North America are estimated at 5.07 per 100 000. A 20 percent increase in that number, which is not a proper assesment of increased risk but it will do for now, ammounts to 1.014 more cases per 100 000. Sure, it sucks for that single individual but it hardly qualifies saurkraut as poison.

Firstly, I just found your channel and we are enjoying it. Have a lot of the same vibes. I do like and use fermented food, especially kefir, and it comes well-recommended by health pioneers like Weston Price and his research with indigenous groups and health. What I’ve learned in the last 2 years though - and no doubt you’ve learned it too - is that these regular “medical journals” can no longer be trusted, if they ever could. They are often paid off by big F in order to provide the kind of “conclusion” they want to promote (think Ivermectin) - even when the evidence proves contrary - as in the work of many doctors exposing certain harmful drugs/vaccines and then being labelled as quacks. Then, of course, the media runs with the sham. When I see that, I know that doctor is a good one. The bad ones are in government/university positions, accepting bribes/bonuses for pushing the “safe and effective” mantra, making up their own science as they go, to dupe the public. If science was so honourable and right, consider thalidomide, DDT, mercury fillings, low fat diets, eggs being bad, butter being bad, cholesterol, margarine being good…..all lies, all from “science”. Propaganda at its finest - been going on along time. I see you like comfrey, but science tried to diss that too. The main problem I have with this video is much of your supporting research is from the NIH, more crooked than a dog’s hind leg. Most of the alphabet agencies are, as we know or should certainly know by now. Why would they do this? Easy. To keep people dependent on drugs and unhealthy. How do we know those people in your info did not get their cancer from their flu shot or other? We don’t, but we do know those shots cause cancer and the like and these smoke screens are always helpful for the criminal agenda to keep people off the trail. I’m reading a book by a doc on vaccines. She has all the evidence to support what she says. They did not save the planet - clean water and sanitation did. These diseases were well on their way out before those. They sell well and make the drug cartel’s $5 billion - but the side effects from these make the cartels $500 billion, because they just prescribe more stuff to fix what they have caused, like this new one “SADS”. A sham beyond measure. Good remedies are always slammed by Big F and since they have so much money, they can do a lot of advertising campaigns on TV, so we’ve become desensitized to it. A few are aware, but not many. Still, we press on with truth. God bless and keep you. Hope He comes back for us soon so we can leave this world that’s become a sewer of evil. God is still on the throne! I’m going to take the risk and keep eating my fermented stuff. 😇

Low birthrates are largely attributed to societal stresses in both Japan and Korea. Also eating meat causes the cultivation of microbiomes that cause cancer, according to new science.

The kimchi you talk about is very similar to the Chinese fermented fish which can be fermented for hundreds of years I have tried a one hundred year old fermented fish again very small portions and yes it’s as disgusting as it sounds. The western method of fermenting takes a couple of months generally and the product is generally only good for a year a totally different type of ferment.

It is always good to look at the sponsors. Regarding soy products, what I have heard is that unfermented soy is much harder to digest. Could it be that the increase in cancer from fermented soy products actually was caused by too much salt in them and maybe the wrong kind of salt? Also we don't know if the soy products in this studies were organic or not. If not, the cancer causing properties might be coming from genetically modified soy and herbicides used to grow it. I guess if the products are goo quality, made from healthy vegetables and beans and used in moderation they still could be very beneficial, but if somebody is eating them every day, maybe they can cause problems.

Are the vegetables used in these studies organic non gmo or were they gmo pesticide laden vegetables. Was the vinegar used in the pickled vegetables petroleum based distillate vinegar or organically produced fermented fruit vinegar. It is really unfortunate that questions like this are rarely asked. And when you look at the data, usually you can see that it is not actually that fermented or picked vegetables are risk factors but the constituent ingredients are most often sourced from processes such as genetic modification, pesticide saturation, artificial fertilisers, petroleum distillate vinegar etc and it is, I believe, these factors that are the most likely cause for the significant increase in negative health outcomes in such studies. A perfect example is the studies on red meat increase risk of cancer. All of the studies confirming increased risk of cancer are done using pesticide, hormone, antibiotic laiden gmo grain fed beef. So the question is why are these studies never done with Real organically grown foods...??? And if you would like to know who might have an interest in making healthy foods look bad, perhaps take a look at who funds the research. You will often find that commercial pharmaceutical companies are typically the companies that are funding such research and they have a vested interest in defamatory research on healthy probiotic foods because why would anyone buy a bottle of probiotic pills for $30 when you can make a jar of organic sauerkraut for $4 and get 20million X the probiotic benefit....???

The researchers changed the diet, added exercise, had them quit smoking. Most l9st Wright as a result of an overall healthier lifestyle.

Just some initial observations: 1. The single most common oriental fermented soy product I'm aware of, is soy sauce. Soy sauce basically has two forms-- alcoholic soy sauce, and hydrolyzed protein (such as Bragg's Aminos). Hydrolyzation involves burning the protein with lye or acid. So, the fermented variety is routinely alcoholic. In the body, ethanol (alcohol) is converted to acetaldehyde, which is highly poisonous. Then acetaldehyde is converted into acetic acid (vinegar). Vinegar is also toxic to the liver. 2. Most pickles are actually not fermented. They are made with salt and vinegar. Much saur kraut is also made with vinegar. 3. All yeast-leavened breads are fermented foods, and all that I am aware of are alcoholic. Modern commercial baker's yeast has been treated with bromide (a thyroid toxin) to kill the lactobacilli, so yeast breads are not lactofermented. (On the farm in Africa, we also fumigated the wheat with methylbromide to keep insects out of it.) The best source of natural bread leaven, is the bacteria from leaves of plants in the spring--ideally, between the time of Passover and Pentecost. Alcohol has a boiling point of about 196 degrees; water, about 212; and vinegar, approximately 235 degrees, Fahrenheit. When bread is well-baked, it typically reaches an internal temperature of about 204 degrees. So, any trace of vinegar in the bread will tend to remain, while the alcohol is largely evaporated. As Inspiration points out, sour bread is the result of the cook not knowing how to properly maintain and handle the leaven, and/or being careless in its use. But lacto-fermentation has been a part of bread-leavening since time immemorial. Any fermented food that depends upon sugar and yeast for its fermentation, will be alcoholic. All vinegar that I am aware of, is the result of degrading alcohol. So, in analyzing the effects of lacto-fermented foods, it seems we need to be careful to avoid confounding the health-detriments of alcohol, vinegar, and irritating spices with the effects of proper lacto-fermentation. If this is done, I think you may find that much of the damage goes away.

The biggest question with studies is not necessarily who did the research, though that is also important to consider, but who funded them and why. Next, you have to actually read the studies, how they were performed, and what the verbiage of the conclusions actually were. Next we need to actually define what was fermented for these studies and how. Were they truly organic vegetables or full of pesticides and herbicides? If vinegar was used was it full of glyphosate or a natural vinegar? So many questions to answer, especially regarding terminology, but also processes and motivation, before you can throw around the very tired term “science.”

I don't think that necessarily there is a bunch of studies that seak to destroy this stuff, but you have to understand there are an insane amount of studies, and when you invest a ton of money into a study you have to get a result. Also food studies are notoriously eh.... It can be really difficult to confirm these things sometimes, and they have to be able to be repeated many many times. And if the conclusion of your result is merky or doesn't support either side it can be really tempting to skew it one way or another given how much time and money was invested into it. I'm not saying you are wrong either, I'm just saying there are a ton more variables to consider and much more research to be done before anything can be 100% concluded. Like some brought up, there are different types of fermentation, also factory produced fermentation tends to be done in a way much different from home fermentation and store bought fermented soy is very different from the old fassion fermented soy. Also while maybe in the video you showed ur sources briefly, without linking them in your description there is little way for me to verify there results or do any real research of my own. So I'd say there is a lot more work that needs to be done in that regard. Another point, you might say Japan has more stomach cancer then USA or otherwise but you don't consider America is top 5 in Cancer in the world, where Japan is 43, this MAJOR skewing of the waters makes it hard to really prove that one diet is some how more cancer then another. If japan gets more overall stomach cancer, but less cancer in total, can we really indicate your desired result? Intresting video leaves me with more questions, and that's nice, but wouldn't call it conclusive.

The fermentation process might actually increase the damage caused by these poisons that stripped us from the good bacteria in the first place. unless the studies compare organic vs GMO (gmos require pesticide use), and organic with pesticide vs organic with no pesticide, I will be eating my fermented olives. they are so good.

Kimchi in North Korea, however, is less spicy. Do your studies take that into consideration?

Spicy foods cause stomach inflammation and inflammation is associated with the development and progression of cancer. Just sayin'.

I have a feeling that there are people who are extremely sensitive to the smell of kimchi, just as there are people who are extremely sensitive to the taste/smell of cilantro. I cannot tolerate the smell or taste of cilantro (which means I have certain olfactory sensors others do not), but kimchi tastes and smells GOOD to me -- at least the authentic Korean kind. Which I typically eat in small quantities only when I go out to dinner at a Korean restaurant. My thought is, if you have a real aversion to something, that absolutely means you should not eat it as it will probably not sit well with you and may even make you ill. On the other hand, if something smells and tastes good to you and sits well when you consume it, it's probably fine. I'm not a fan of ANYONE making a video about what we should or should not eat -- much less that it's killing you. We are all different, we have different heritage and different genetics, and I believe people should eat what works for them and not worry about the fad of the moment. I dislike "food police," just as I dislike "thought police." I'm sure the author of this vid means well, but IMHO it's out of line and you (the author) should remove it and keep your food opinions to yourself.

It does not seem to show that it is actually cancer fighting or beneficial. It can be that some components of something could be beneficial and some may be detrimental and in my mind that is a net loss rather than gain. There may be properties in kimchi, like cabbage and other veggies that are cancer fighting but there still is a potential for it to be cancer causing because of the fermenting.

Other GMO projects do affect the foods produced - like Golden Rice, which had genes added so that the rice plant now produces beta carotene in the rice, which prevents blindness in children. You use "gmo" as if it means something it does not actually mean. It's just another hybridization technique, and we've been hybridizing plants for many thousands of years.

One of the superfoods of Japan is natto. Natto is a fermented soy product.

Hi there! New subscriber here. I've watched several of your videos and they have been such a blessing. With all the craze about Raw organic Apple cider vinegar, I was wondering your thoughts on that. It's fermented so it must not be good for us? Any help would be great! Thank you and God Bless!!

Here is a link to a case report of a woman who repeatedly consumed vinegar and how it caused damage to her esophagus. academic.oup.com/jscr/article/2020/10/rjaa392/5934538 I am not persuaded that it is overall healthy. It has been shown to lower blood pressure. But by eating a plant based diet that has no refined food can also lower blood pressure. The plant based diet will not damage the esophagus. The point is, like I mention in the video, there are things with benefits and side effects. I am looking for things with benefits and no side effects.

Eat balanced amounts of all these: Pickles, Fermented, Fresh and DIVERSE intakes. Do exercise and reduce stress and increase positive experiences: You'll live longer than any given only-isolate - obviously.

OK so how do we offset the cancer risks and still get all the benefits

The 60 study meta-analysis you seemed to find most compelling was for “pickled” foods, or at least that’s the word you used. Pickled and fermented are not necessarily the same.

Take this info with a grain of salt. These studies used for this video lack too much important information to be credible. I'm a carnivore, a strict meat diet. Studies say avoid red meat. Meat causes colon cancer, for example. These studies lack info as well. Who were the subjects tested, what was their lifestyles/health/menus like prior to the study, during the study, after the study? Did some subjects also drink alcohol, smoke tobacco, indulge in illicit drugs or eat carbohydrates and so forth?

Furthermore, the process of fermentation itself is not the cause of the cancer. It is the presence of H. Pylori, regardless of fermentation or not, that appears to be the culprit. A person can become infected with this bacteria whether they eat fresh or fermented foods.

Too much fluff. Three min in and he still hasn’t said anything relevant. One of the major arguments against kimchi is its high salt content. That salt comes from added salt. It’s not a by-product of fermentation. Fermentation processes are not all the same. They involve different microorganisms and different biochemical pathways. We have a lot of food that are products of fermentation - bread, beer, wine, yogurt, sauerkraut, kimchi, tempeh, cheese, etc. You have to be specific about what fermentation procedure you’re talking about. If you’re talking about acid - which acid? Is it an acid produced during fermentation or are you talking about acetic acid/vinegar deliberately added during pickling?

All the studies and meta-analyses are sourced in the video. You can dig into them and look at the research. All the best.

Pickled foods using water bath canning and vinegar is a completely different process than fermented foods. So when you say pickled are you talking about the water bath process or the fermentation process?

lol... i was in grad school in family student housing which were two story townhouses in a row and back to back. one day i came home and i was sure something had died in the walls. called the building guys and as soon as the guy walked in, he backed out! turned out there were a korean family making food... the guy comes back to us after investigating and told me i should go smell the townhouse behind ours if we think our place stinks... evidently the other place was truly vile. i love fermented foods but when something makes me want to hurl, i am not going to eat it. the truth is that if you stop eating processed and synthetic food and eat whole, real foods, you will be healthy. i did that in the 80's and i just never get sick. i worked in hospitals and everyone around be got sick but i do not. no colds. no flu. no covid. i grow most of my food which gives me physical activity, working in the sun (vitamin D), clean air in my little orchard / garden / wild life habitat / oasis. i do eat fermented foods but not fanatically. the only things that never enter my domain are synthetic and processed foods. i do not eat meat much but several times a year i may have some wild smoked salmon or something equally drug and chemical free. i do have chickens for eggs and i become to attached to them so they get to rule the orchard in their old age.

What about tinctures that use apple vinegar? Do you think they are helpful?
