1. fried foods 0:13 2. soft drinks 2:52 3. commercial breads 6:56

I'm 76 years old now. When I was 18 years old I worked for an old rich guy doing yard work on a few of his rental houses, and he and I got to be friends. One day when I got there one of his sisters was there complaining to him about his drinking and smoking, and saying that he has one foot in the grave (I remember thinking that she looked worse than he did). After she left he said to me "Hell, I don't want to live to be a thousand years old."

Thanks Max for continuing to educate all of us for health. ❤ about 10 years ago I read Excitotoxins The Taste That Kills, by Russell Blaylock. Believe me you will NEVER drink soft drinks again ever!

We use Nom d'une Frite beef tallow, which is made in Belgium for deep frying. It's really good and is completely saturated fat. Stable at high temperatures and because we are made of saturated fat, does not cause the problems mentioned in the video.

Oh my gosh! I am so thankful to find you!! My children have been telling me I have Alzheimer’s. I do not!!! The stress that I’ve been Nader for over two years has driven me to the brink…but I know I don’t have it!!! I’m so very thankful for finding you!!!!

I make a home made Artisan bread (unbleached bread flour 3.5 cups to 2.5 tsp yeast, 2 cups warm water in a Kitchen aid mixer. Cover and let raise for 2 hours and then break it into two loaves on sprayed cookie sheet. Cook at 475 for 34 minutes. You can add things to the dough if you want...I put sea salt and garlic on the outside before baking. I also put a small tray of water on the bottom rack of the oven to increase humidity. i will never buy bread again. So easy and incredible! Use within a day or two or it will mold....no preservatives!

I eat fried food at home with grapeseed, avocado oil, i don't have cholesterol, fatty liver, im good , i love walnuts. I use certain herbs for my brains.

It's just so disheartening that we're still having to have the same conversations about food and health that we were having fifty years ago. How long must it take before people get the message?

I stopped eating bread about 8 months ago. the first 14 days I lost 2 inches from my waistline, never changed anything else. Never felt better in my life, I am 63. Never eat fried food or soft drinks either.

25 yrs being diabetic and it end to kidney transplant last 2015 then after 3 yrs i got colon cancer stage 2 luckily I survived. Now i am 65 yrs old thanks 🙏 lord.

Read that coconut oil is also good for brain health.

Fried food (trans fat) Soda (HFCS or aspartame [chemical sweetener]) White bread (refined grains)

What he means by 'fried foods' are deep fried foods that are fried in cheap overused highly processed seed and veggies oils that are loaded with unhealthy trans fats. This would include items like fried chicken, fish, french fries and onion rings, etc.

This message is priceless. Share it around the world.

I was glad to hear you say correlation is not causality. I also think you know when there is a really strong correlation (such as the correlation between smoking and cancer), it needs to be investigated very closely.

Great info, personaly I would include sugar in the list.

Eating in the U.S. and get bloated stomach for hours.

At 80, I am alive because I stopped eating refined sugar, processed food, and developed the habit of reading the label. I learned this "self-help" by reading a monthly magazine called "Prevention". When I deviated, ate too much ice cream, espresso, and fried food, I became very sick over a few years. At 32, I abruptly quit my job, fasted, went on a 6 month vegan diet. I recovered. But, I gave up ice cream, espresso, and cut down on the fried food, just eating french fries occasionally. But, I still crave potato chips, and it's a constant struggle. I asked my wife to stop buying them. I make a daily drink of cold brewed, light roast, coffee + raw, organic cocoa + coconut cream. The cocoa is good with cinnamon on fruit + kefir.

This is an excellent comment! Thank you for taking the time to write it and post it for our improved knowledge...

Grateful for the Information

The confusion of what to put in your mouth 👄, will never end!!

Most oils when heated change their molecular structure and after being super heated should really be reclassified as poison!!!

It is obvious. Idk how people don’t understand this 🤷‍♀️ fried food, sugar, alcohol, drugs.

I kicked soft drinks by taking my favorite sparkling water/ ice and LMNT electrolytes ( flavored) it has been a godsend, I was addicted to Diet Coke. 🥤 ❤

Verrry difficult to know whether or not the 'info' on cocoa flavanols, mentioned here, is really scientifically solid, given that this was an extreeeeemely biased *commercial* for a company that sells a cocoa flavanol product.

All three types of food are so common in the American diet. Foodstuffs that are being pushed by the big conglomerates that rule our food supply. In Japan, supermarkets aren't lined w a plethora of soda beverages like here in the States. What you will find is liters upon liters of unsweetened tea and water. Coke is still available but it is located in the back end w other specialty sodas but obviously not very popular bc there is very limited space that is dedicated to them. There are lots of convenience stores that are all open 24 hrs and the fast food they offer has far better quality at very affordable prices than all the super sweet snacks and junk food at 7-11 or Circle K stores. I wish giant companies had more concern for our health and well-being here. Why do healthy/organic food be more expensive that the less fortunate couldn't afford?!

So by "fried foods" you mean deep fried foods, not shallow fried, briefly fried foods?

Good video. I tend to disagree with your assessment on breads. Of course the "Wonder Breads" are considered "ultra processed" and are really not a bread in the true sense but when you talk about "artisanal breads" as healthy, I disagree. Most times, all of these breads are made with flours processed and stored the same way. Unless breads are made with with freshly milled grains, the differences are minimal. By "freshly milled", I mean less than 3-4 days old. These breads, be it white or organic sourdough are alkaline to our bodies. Breads made with stored flours are acidic. Cheers!

Greetings from Maldives. Appreciative of your great efforts. Thank you very much.

Can you explain more for people that isn't in US?

i have been using Cacao Powder for several years, is this the same.

Interesting and useful information, thankyou. With reference to cocoa beer, recent medical and research evidence is now showing that no alcohol is good. Which is good for me as I ceased drinking alcoholic drinks a long time ago. It has called the old saw about a glass of red wine a day is now in serious doubt which is bad news for the wine industry. When you think about it, alcohol is a manufactured solvent (I use it for cleaning electronic boards and glass) and brewing is still a form of manufacturing, albeit by using organisms.

Ok so Fried food is considered bad because you are quoting "if fried in oils". So what about frying in natural Animal fats like beef Tallow or Lard etc? Fully saturated Animal fats are considered healthier to fry with right?

The cocoflavanol thing is new, though ... Perhaps, as an older person, I should start consuming it. Could do with an increased blood flow!

You forgot about liquor ..so full of sugars and bad for relationships ..so bad for society..😮

Thanks

One of my questions, which remains unanswered, is polyunsaturared fats as contained in fatty fish (EPA, DHA), which are super healthy, vs the polyunsaturated fats as mentioned in these bad oils? What is the difference?

Anything containing seed oils (vegetable oils) is a highly processed food. Seed oils can only be made in a laboratory. They are completely unnatural in their refined form that we consume them today.

Fry at home with tallow or lard

Thank you❤

Thank you 😊 💓

I'm new to your program. I understand the issue with sugar, but what about artificial sweeteners?

Soft drinks are not a food . Worse drinks to consume are the high caffeine energy drinks and alcohol

Fructose is hepatotoxic, and the primary cause of NAFLD. It is 100% intercepted by the liver and immediately converted into glyceraldehyde (toxic!) and dihydroxy-acetone, 50/50. Fructose is present in high fractions in sucrose (50%), HFCS (42 or 55%), and all fruit products, whole and processed. Dietary fructose should be limited to small fractions of total calories. The only grain products that can legitimately considered "whole grain" are those where the seeds have not been ground into flour and still contain the bran and germ. Whole grain can be soaked whole seeds, or cracked, and subsequently cooked, but not any form of naked endosperm or downstream refined products. For example, the "whole wheat flour" that you can get in the store is not to be considered "whole grain" at all; it is highly refined; the microscopic starch granules have been completely disintegrated, and most of the germ has been removed to prevent spoilage. There is still a fraction of the bran remaining. Seed flour is only two steps away from glucose, and is absorbed *as* glucose, so it *is* sugar, just a little slower in absorption rate (depending on several factors) than pure glucose (e.g.Karo Syrup). Products like farina or steel cut oats are absorbed slower because the natural starch granules have not been mechanically disintegrated and are digested more slowly by amylase. Even so, they have been swelled and loosened up by cooking which is a form of pre-digestion. Flour (starch, linear and branched) + amylase -> maltose -> glucose dumped directly into the blood stream (blood sugar). Carbs are not your friend unless you are at risk of starvation. Otherwise, they are effectively a form of candy.

Outstanding Commentary!!! Priceless!!!! Thank You!!!

we use vegetable oils, like sunflower oil and( in de past also soybeen oil), we often eat home fried food like fish and chicken , we eat commercial white bread. My father smokes, daily drink coca cola but is physically active. Both my parents are 83. We use tap water . My Father has diabetes though , and my mother is getting old age diabetes, but had a tumor in her colon which was removed and also her gallbladder as it had gallstones . I guess environment and physical activity and plays a critical role too. May God bless them with good health. I do believe the my mother's health was impacted by the used of those oils, fried food sugar and lack of proper exercise. But we do have good habits like drinking warm tea in the morning daily used of garlic onion and fresh pepper, parsley and green onions , and turmeric as in curry dishes 3- 5 times per week

How do you ensure that your blood sugars, blood fat and gut health remain optimum whilst eating the recommended amount of fat and fibre ?

I make flat breads made from organic Spelt flour, when I feel like it. Cook in organic butter, for fat, never drink soft drinks, eat as much organic as I can find, eat omega 3 fats like salmon, a variety of different coloured foods, no coffee,

Can't we make our own bread without yeast?

Good stuff , really well done .

is there a healthful bread?

In my country the fastfood restaurants throw the used oil away every night

When I was 40 the doctor told me that they could not do anything else and than I Iost my job but than a miracle happens. I became a vegetarian and after 40 years I am still alive and healthy

Real bread,. 4 ingredients = Flour, yeast, water, salt,

How do I find the recipe with measurements?

Once in a while I'll watch a movie and have an ice cold coke from a bottle and it's good . The thing we are missing is once in a while is ok but never every day for example I have 3 coke bottles in the fridge right now but I haven't touched them for a few weeks iam just not in the mood , i have the same feelings for beer .I can take it or leave it .

I make my own fried food and I use one of two oil: Olive oil if the food does not require too high a temperature and Sunflower oil if it needs higher. I'm 76 and the last time I was sick was in 1998. Do not touch fast food, fried or not. Still dang intelligent. There is OIL and then there is oil. Pretending that all oil are the same is ridiculous. Lets see next "absolutely". Soft drink, most not good. Bread same thing therefore saying "bread" is not accurate.

The problem with cocoa flavanols for me is the caffeine they contain.

So at the end this was really an ad

Organic flavonoids 0.5 gram raw coca , no selling please. Thanks.

How about tortillas? Are they included in breads?

What's a good diet for PREDIABETIC like me?

What is cocoa flavonals

what can you have instead of commercially prepared bread?

Is lard better than oils

I have looked for a low aldehyde food list and it is difficult if not impossible to find. I had to go to a Chinese website because the west doesn't study high aldehyde foods. Smoking, Alcohol and processed Coffee are all high in aldehydes, even watermelon. My body has an ALDH2 deficiency so aldehyde foods are even worse for me. Thanks for pointing out the dangers of aldehydes.

Seed oils are the WORST POSSIBLE thing for cooking any foods. Canola, soybean, gmo corn, etc... even cooking in animal fat is better for you !

Sodas are bad mainly because of high fructose corn syrup, not sugar. Sugar is probably not in 99% of all soft drinks.

Are you just talking about deep-fried foods? Does it include stir-fried food?

That you call a soda, food, I think this is a wrong label. NOT FOOD. I knew decades ago that sugar is a drug.

But until now i manage my diabetes control sugar

8:20 10% increase in process food consumption causes twenty-five percent increase in what? The host was talking over Max, thanks

As for the soft drinks do you mean juice too?

You're so helpful!!! Why are some drinks called "soft drinks"? Eating / drinking well requires effort & time & $$$. The undisciplined half-hearts can't make it. Health matters though. BTW, does coffee with or soon after meals wash out iron via being diuretic? And what about METHYLENE BLUE pls?

Delightful to see some honest intelligent conversation about how to stay healthy, the fast food culture has created an epidemic with aging Americans being diagnosed with Dementia and Alzheimer's.

How much bread do you eat?

Omg..i love my fries!

Plant based....and root....foods are worth It.

They have come up with meatless meat of questionable origin and call it real meat, processed in a lab and not on a farm.

Jesus loves you 🙏 He is coming back. If you want peace, follow the commands of Jesus. He will lead you and comfort you as the world fails. God bless you all. If you really seek God, you will find Him.

everyone has to eat kale all the time. ugh

A bit of an infomercial going on here. The general advise is good.

No fried foods not not frequent fried food period, full stop.

Every time you hear talk about what to every body say something different confused

Thank god I stopped drinking sodas over 20 years ago...

Every thing is not bad or good for every one my nabour is a very nice lady she what every thing she wants whether fat salt sweet she don't sick one time she complains died near one hundred Genes not food

I wonder how soda companies will react if millions of people start doing the no soda challenge. 😀Don’t care about their reaction but just wondering, all bout greed they want to make money by offering addictive chemical soft drinks. Coffee is better in my opinion, I trained my brain not to need sugar in coffee.

Girl sounds like she just ate fried chicken with soda

What about frying a steak and diet sodas Lugavere

So, fried food is bad because restaurants use seed oils and don't refresh it often enough, does everybody eat in restaurants every day? I don't get it. then you leave out the fact that fried in lard, ghee or grass fed butter is 100% healthy. It's misleading and ridiculous, why not just say that seed oils are not good for you?

Is that a Oura ring on your finger?

NOT TO EAT: 1 FRIED FOOD 2 SOFT DRINKS 3 BREAD (processed food)

Post coco via

I take herbs for my brain

Who would have imagined pork rinds cooked in pure lard was actually healthier than most processed foods around today. Food for thought. Go carnivore

So, underpaid fast-food workers care nothing about other underpaid workers. Afterall, it's underpaid people who are fast-food frequenters.

"Fried foods" ??? 😡 You should specify as "Commercially fried foods" I fry foods often But gently and in fresh butter, ghee olive oil and coconut oil. I only use sparingly and the fat/oil is usually consumed with the meal. Bread .. the problem is the grain itself. YOU NEED TO DO A LOT MORE STUDY. 👎

Beim Fleisch oder Fisch braten muss ich das Öl aber ja auch erhitzen? 🤔

Millets are the way to go to live a disease free and a healthy life.

What are your credentials?
