Love the video and the recipe ideas! At some point, I’d love to see your dish cleaning routine or how you clean as you go while you make your meals. I think one reason why a lot of people don’t cook is because of the cleanup and the time investment. I don’t know if that’s something you’d be interested in but I think people would dig it! And no vegan KZfaqrs have videos like that, yet! Just a thought!

Just starting eating vegan and have really been enjoying your channel. Did you see the UC Davis study about adding bananas to a berry smoothie? The researchers found that those who drank the banana smoothie had 84% lower levels of flavanols in their body compared to those who didn't add the banana. For those who want to consume smoothies with bananas, the suggestion is to not combine them with flavanol-rich fruits such as berries, grapes and cocoa. Just an interesting read I thought you might enjoy.

@Simnettnutrition 10 ай бұрын

Yes I did see that! Not sure what to say. Probably still going to have my banana and berry smoothies but definitely an interesting finding. Notable was that vegans/vegetarians were excluded from the group and it was a very small sample size of ppl. From 8-11 depending on what part of the study. We do know that vegans have different intestinal microbes than omnivores so that would have been interesting to see if that made any difference. Interesting though. Also (not mentioned in the study) the PPO in bananas that was responsible for the decrease in flavanol uptake also has anti cancer/anti tumor & antioxidant properties of its own. So it’s not all bad. Also the study was sponsored by MARS, so that’s kinda weird. 🍫 😆 Welcome to the channel btw!

If you need some great supplements check out www.vedgenutrition.com/SimnettNutrition! Use my code DEREK10 for 10% OFF on every purchase! Their supplements are made in the USA and are USDA Organic, third party tested, vegan certified and taste great! The protein powder mixes up so smoothly and is not at all chalky. You can even have it with just water but I think it's best with some banana and berries!

Also, thank you for using the term "plant-based" when regarding diet instead of vegan. You have no idea how much it frustrates me to see people who completely misconstrue the definition of vegan by bringing either health or the environment into it. So for that, thank you. 💖
