I have a garden I eat a lot of food from it, I have eating rice, beans, tomatoes so many different vegetables, make my own bread, a whole my life, grew up in a farm, we ate the fruits seasonal, we would eat meat too. I am almost 70 zero problems with my health. One thing my mother use to teach us was moderation when you eat, I still remember, no matter how healthy it’s the food, too much, it’s not good for you. My grandma was to eat like us, she lived to be 113 years old. I think our bodies need a variety, because one kind of food do not cover every necessity in your body. But what it’s good for someone, doesn’t have to be for someone else. Moderation I pretty sure is good for everyone.

My wife bought a container of sundried tomatoes. I thought it would be tomatoes and oil. Nope- 23 ingredients. It pays to read the labels.

I am a 61 yr old female and I am learning every day . Thank you for this video .

I generally just stick to whole foods-lean meat, eggs, a bit of processed dairy (cheese, sour cream, yogurt), veg, fruit, whole grains, nuts, seeds. I don't worry about my weight, although I recently lost a good amount. I am decently healthy and happy, that's what matters.

Im diabetic and I recently had to quit drinking zero sugar drinks as it was causing ketoacidosis and I was vomiting up my food on a regular basis, it took a long time and a lot of experimentation to realise that it was the zero sugar drinks causing it.

Moderation is Key Too much of anything is bad Problem is, many of us are addicts who struggle with "just enough".

The key takeaways are: 1. **Misleading Health Foods**: Commonly perceived healthy options like diet sodas, fruit juices, flavored coffees, and ultra-processed plant-based foods may not be as beneficial as marketed due to artificial sweeteners, excess sugars, and processing methods that can damage gut health and metabolism. 2. **Bread and Wine Considerations**: The health impact of bread depends on the quality of the grain, the type of flour (whole grain vs. ultra-processed), and the bread-making process, with sourdough bread being highlighted for its probiotic benefits. 3. **Importance of Quantity**: The amount of food consumed can significantly affect one's health, with moderation being key. Tools like CGM devices can help individuals understand the impact of food on their blood sugar levels. 4. **Personalized Diet**: A one-size-fits-all approach to diet does not work. Mindful eating, which includes making informed choices about food based on personal preferences and cultural background, is essential for a sustainable and healthy diet. 5. **Gut Health as a Metabolic Indicator**: A healthy gut microbiome is crucial for efficient metabolism. Disruptions caused by artificial sweeteners, antibiotics, and ultra-processed foods can lead to metabolic issues and weight gain. 6. **Mindful Shopping**: Reading ingredient labels and understanding the contents of food products is crucial to avoid ingredients that could harm gut health and overall metabolism. 7. **Joy in Eating**: Aligning eating habits with personal joy and cultural practices is as important as the nutritional value of the food. Enjoyment of food should be a part of a healthy diet. 8. **Technology for Personal Insights**: Utilizing technology like CGM devices or breathalyzers for metabolic assessment can provide personal insights into how different foods affect individual health.

People can’t go easy on amounts. Because these foods cause cravings. That’s what they do. It raises your insulin and when it drops you get the signal from your brain that you need more. And so starts the cycle. Also, we’re talking about addiction here. people are addicted to carbohydrates. It doesn’t matter what the amount is or where it comes from. It makes you want more and more and more and that’s the problem. It’s like asking an alcoholic just have one drink and then you’ll be fine you won’t have another drink till tomorrow or the next day or next week. No, he wants another drink as soon as that one’s done.

My husband and I cook everything from whole foods. We even make our own whole grain sourdough bread, it's delicious, and we know what's in it. We slice our bread and freeze it, so it's always fresh. We live in the country and have a large garden in summer.

This Doctor needs to be cloned and put into EVERY medical school to re-educate doctors with correct information about HEALTH. He is brilliant, and a gem of a person to anyone with common sense about how to improve their health in a sustained way. I just love learning from his simple to understand videos ... I respect this man immensely. 👍👍👍

There are so many food additives in processed foods, it’s not really food anymore. THANK YOU For this very important video!!

I read labels when i go to the groceries. If i cannot pronounce the ingredients and the ingredients is a long word. It means it is not good for you. We can only do so much in our diet and nutrition. We can do our best to get quality food. For me, what works for me is Balance diet. No extreme measures in diet. Just listen to your body. Balance is the key. Do not overdo anything. 😊

Mt frustration is that even natural foods and being genetically altered to be sweeter. Also, prepackaged coffee does not have ingredients labels. Even if it has flavoring in it. It is very difficult to know what you are consuming today.

I love his comments so much about food being MORE than just medicine ❤❤❤

His educational approach is changing lives

Wow, amazing explanation of how we should look after our our body - our temple 🥰

I love thé guest positive approach and energy.

Started my no sugar journey 10 days ago, My daily routine now 1.Wake up 2.Watch your videos 3. Start the day 4.watch another video on sugar addiction 5.sleep!!! Thank you❤

The aspartame we drink invokes anxiety, the vegetation processed products do the same. The bread we eat today only serves to create further anxiety within us. I am too old now and have not had the education I would have needed but I can clearly see we are what we eat. We know now that 80% of our serotonin resides in our gut. Thank you

"MIndful rather than prescriptive eating." YES!!!

100% facts this guy telling the truth.

I enjoyed your show ,thanks a lot❤

I like your discussion about bread, especially when you mentioned sourdough. I would like to mention the milling of wheat into flour. Modern milling is done with steel rollers and produces a fine-grained flour. Then the bran and husk parts are separated leaving just the starchy endosperm. This makes flour that can be store for a long time. Originally stone -ground milling was a local operation. The flour was quickly used by local bakeries. Newly milled flour is very nutritious for a short time. You cannot build a pyramid while eating white bread. that w

As someone without a colon, I'd love to hear your view on how it changes gut health. I hear a thousand different opinions (as always in nutrition science) and am lost how one should think in regards to this, and salt intake.

always good things to think about...

Thank you both. When it comes down to when I have to bake our own breads - I will be adding: chia & flax seeds, poppy seeds, kelp granules, various nuts (ground up), oats, pumpkin seeds, quinoa flakes, sesame seeds, sunflower seeds, dark wheat bran, etc. for more nutritious bread. Of course not all the above will be added at once - a little here & a little there will do the trick.

During holiday I ate things I don’t eat anymore-bread, crackers, pasta. Man, I’ve been bloated, feel heavy, not going potty well, etc. Moreover, was hungrier than normal-nothing was satisfying. I’m glad I’m back to work-I eat less and healthy, nearly no processed carbs (never bread or pasta, but sometimes a few crackers). Those processed grains wreak havoc, yet they seem so innocuous. :)

Sugar coma is real for me with neuro issues

great informative video👏👏👏

P.S. I w own both of his books . They are a good read and helpful with its information

Those who say that we don't get joy from eating right has never had a bowel blockage where you can't eat anything but liquids and when you make a green smoothie and you haven't eaten in a few hours your stomach is excited that you're going to feed it what it wants. you even start to get extra energy just because it knows what's coming

I love these clips!

I think humans have a tendency for the extreme. Don’t touch, don’t eat, eat this, don’t eat that. It does become burdensome. I know it did for me. Perhaps it’s best to just exercise moderation, and enjoy what God has provided for us, and for our enjoyment. I have though seen the need to eliminate the obvious offenders; sugar, processed foods. Having done this has helped me shed 40 pounds of weight, and stabilized my really high blood pressure. I guess it boils down to common sense.

Most people don’t know they’re gut is unhealthy. It’s like taking vitamins you don’t know what vitamin you need. You have to test. Go to your doctor and do blood test. Take a sensitivity test. The problem with people if they don’t know their bodies, they just think that they need this or that, and take it just in case.

Such a special skill to load this many ads within such a short video

It's all about mindful eating rather than prescriptions. Trying to minimize sugar salt , rice and flour based foods. The four whites rather 😊

I buy sprouted grain/ legume bread that has to be refrigerated….only a few ingredients….it is good

Dr. Chatterjee, How much white rice is a small amount for you that does not impact your blood sugar? Would that be 1/2 cup or 1/4 cup or 1 cup? I am curious. Thank you for the video.

All grains are carbohydrate, starch, also are sugar. We have too much of it and it's in all foods.

I make bread from lupin and gluten flour; I make my own sauerkraut in a jar with salt alone I burp it a few days then in the fridge. Any food made from big food companies have preservatives which aren’t good for health gut. Kefir and bacteria yogurt is good for the gut. Keep those pipes healthy.

Dr Ben Bickman who specialises in the metabolism and fat, spoke of alullose negating the fructose in fruits and fruit drinks which causes spikes in insulin levels, and which can lead to insulin resistance over time. Insulin is what causes our fat cells to hang onto fat. Lowering insulin spikes after eating bad carbs and fructose leads to weight loss. Exercising after eating also reduces insulin spikes. I’ve also read that we can increase the resistant starch in foods like potatoes, pasta, rice etc, by cooking then chilling or freezing, then reheating and eating. Our bodies can’t digest resistant starches but our good gut bacterias thrive on them.

I don't know what to eat anymore. Maybe I should quit.

I don’t eat bread I don’t eat yogurt and I took a sensitivity test and got no results on gut biome. It said that I had no digestive issues to note so I don’t believe that these things are healthy. You just don’t destroy your gut health in the first place, then you don’t need all these other things. Stay away from processed foods, breads, grains, sugar. I am carnivore and my gut health is in perfect condition. My triglycerides are 90 my HDL is 62.5 and my VLDL is 18. I don’t care about LDL because particle size is what matters but triglycerides matter more.

LOVE YOU BOTH!!!!

Love his book!

I forget the doctors name but I heard that if you freeze bread then toast it you will lessen the unhealthy effect of bread.

We re all in a dead pool. Don t deprive yourself of something you enjoy. Just apply moderation

We were given a bowl of Fruit Loops and a glass of Tang orange drink as children

U so right same ítem diffrent maker but they all have diffrent ingredience.

What about whole grain brown rice, is that good to eat?

Diet sodas are arguable. If u are a healthy individual yes ofc don't drink it. But if u are a 300 pound person tryna lose weight drinking Litres of full sugar fizzy drinks and then switch to diet instead, can be very beneficial

Does he talk about IBS type C and good food por it in his book?

What made me loose all my excess weight is a no sugar low carb diet which i am continuing as it is also making me healthy in general i haven't been sick in years. And of course only natural food no junk. Healthy home cooked foods.

Is milk kefir healthy? I Vita-mix it with frozen blueberries and a date each morning.

So helpful, but what do we buy when we go the supermarkets ,its ok if you got time and money to prepare foods from fresh ,i really struggle what to have for Dinners, the food companies have got alot to answer for !

"Be mindful and engaged when you X" is about the only useful advice when you are talking about almost any human activity. But most people are either unwilling or incapable of it. Hence the state of our health, economies, schools, governments,...

I took the lumen test to see if I needed to use it and it said I needed more carbohydrates. No I do not need carbohydrates. There is no need for carbohydrates. That’s what gluconeogenesis is for to give me all the glucose. My body needs with consuming zero carbohydrates.

Just say the foods!

what is the title of his book please

An incredibly important message presented in the most boring way possible.

There has been a study out of Stanford that compares beyond Meat to hamburger and found beyond Meat to be a healthier alternative.

What about stevia?

People mislead when it comes to diet soda. It's not good for you but if you have a weight problem specifically or are consuming too much sugar, it is better for you than sugar soda.

dont the probiotics in saurdough die when baked?

Is the French sourdough "pain au levain" an example of the suggested healthy sourdough bread ? Thanks for all the great info !

I love "Ezekiel Bread"

Please Share Soil Seeds Land What Water How Fresh 😳😳😳😳

I wonder which brand of camera is good..

Ah yes, plant-based foods. Beyond Meat, right? I wonder how many people would buy it if it was renamed "Plant based laboratory concoctions treated with questionable chemicals."

Do what I did cut carbs no rice bread eggs and pasta just eat fruit drink water walking then watch it fall off !! Watermelon the best !!!😅

Thank you for this shorter clip... I can't do 2 hr videos.

“We fermented wine we made bread” - NO - we fermented grapes and made wine and we fermented grain and made bread. Whole grapes, whole grains, that are fermented before being made into wine and bread, or as being made into wine and bread. Don’t eat bread that isn’t naturally fermented and made from whole-grain. At least if you want to be eating real food the way it was made and helped mankind developed for thousands of years.

Please Share No More FALSE MARKETING. God Bless You 🕊❤️🙏🏻🎉

He didn't make it clear enough if sourdough was a healthier type of bread.

I make my own homemade bread that’s all u have to do. I make homemade pancakes too.

Feast and famine cycles are natural, too.

Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food. - Hippocrates

And yet in the UK we are charged a sugar levy for buying 'non diet' 'no sugar' drinks. We're also told we should swap meat for a plant based / vegetarian meal at least once a week 🤦‍♀️ Why are we being told we need to have these things , that they are better for us, and yet it's just the opposite you say , as we also get charged money if we disagree and want the full fat version of these drinks, so therefore our choice is made for us. 🤦‍♀️🤷‍♀️

Stick your whole food in its natural state and you’re good

Don’t think we are a society of weight loss. I think we have progressed onto health. We are Society that is trying to get healthy. Weight loss is secondary. It comes naturally after we quit eating all the garbage. I shop the periphery of the store I do not go down, isles ever, I think people have gotten smart, especially as older generations who went through that no fat but full of sugar and grains. The cookies we could eat because they were fat free the candy we could eat because they were fat free. It didn’t work we are fatter and sicker because of it. They told us no salt. It causes hypertension which it does not. Our bodies need that our bodies need salt. They lied to us. When you restrict or remove certain foods from your diet, you want them even more. It is a mind game you do have to be mindful. But you also have to realize the effect that these foods are having on your body and people don’t do that. The reason I quit eating certain foods is because of the effect they were having on my body that I was just done with. I was over the joint pain. I was done with the chronic diarrhea and now I am much much better because I went back to the basics. Our ancestors eat meat. They didn’t have sweet apples and sweet, bananas, and fake lettuces.

My doctor said to me anything if large quantity is not good for your health, even it’s considered good thing, anything if small quantity is not big deal even it’s considered bad😂

Until you are a Type 1 Diabetic and see what this man say's and how these foods spike our blood sugars it makes sense. Since the 50's the rise of Overweight and Diabetes is scary. Watch the film 'Jaws' the beach scene when the swimmer gets eaten how many fat people are there. The manufacture of car seat and airline seat has changed in size and strength as in structure has increased because of people putting on weight.

David Sinclair recommends eating only 75% of usual amounts of food. We eat too much. Weight Watchers main message is portion control. And then the only bread worth eating is real sourdough, which one can make at home.

i'm thinking the spices in chai might alter this equation.

He says a little bread🤔 The greeks eat bread with every meal , religiously, they are among the longest lived people in the world 🤔

Your liver can only process 30 grams of carboydrates daily.

Now what??

Surely the bacteria die when the bread is cooked?

I got diagnosed with enlarged prostate and i asked my doctor if i needed to change anything in my diet.. and he said no nothing :( after that i dont trust him at all

I prefer black bean burgers, but I still do a beyond burger from time to time because as a Hindu I don't eat beef.

Yet statistically, diet only accounts for 10% of dis-ease. There’s far too much demonization of food - especially more affordable food. Social determinants have a colossal effect on our health. Far more than any bread with have on us. Food is minuscule in the grand scheme of things. More than WHAT you eat, the RELATIONSHIP that you have to food is far more imperative and effects everything from digestion to nutritional value to the amount of stress that we elicit from being so pedantic in what we consume. Too many people die from cancer and it wasn’t from eating the “wrong” foods. It’s tremendous psychological and social stress.

Where is his support for the claim that artificial sweeteners damage our gut health or "metabolism" and this is somehow worse than the issues with full sugar sodas? All studies on this have been in rodents, with extremely high doses of artificial sweetener (comparable to consuming thousands of cans of soda for a human), and the results were actually inconclusive. They just noticed a change in gut microbiome, they can't determine whether the change is positive or negative. Tons of things you consume can change your gut microbiome, it doesn't mean they're automatically bad, nor do we even know if this actually occurs in humans or not, it's not been sufficiently studied at all. Also, obesity has serious measurable negative impacts to health, so why are we assuming that consuming soda with sugar and becoming obese is somehow better? This is an insane claim with no real backing in the research.

My husband is a diabetic and drinks coke zero but he started having some gut issues, I need to go tell him about diet soda and the effect on gut health now. He will not be happy at all because that's the only thing he drinks besides water. Oh well.

Food trends are so fatiguing honestly. So many theories mostly based on anecdotes you just can’t tell what to listen to.

Huge Updates all Our Waters And Filters Lies and Cover-Ups 😳😳😳😳

It is clear what we should eat to stay healthier but for example , those who do physical work every day need meat because they simple could not survive on plant- based foods in the long term. It's not about me.❤

Our ancestors did not eat food for Joy. They ate food for survival. That’s where we have gone wrong.

Bread & Wines pesticides Preservities dyes Food Colorings Processing added Chemicals 😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳

Don’t need bread or carbs
