They ruined my mental health, thats for sure

As a child I just ate anything, but my parents were serious about being healthy and my diet was mostly fruits and vegetables.

As a kid I ate rather okay, not too healthy but not unhealthy either. My early teenage years were a disaster, I ate 2 bags of potato chips AND a bowl of popcorn. I've changed my diet quite a lot, I gave up my chips and a lot of other sugary snacks for more healthier options, and honestly, I'm surprised I turned out okay despite that poor diet I had.

My cousin used to have like Mcd's, ramen noodles, prepacked foods as most of his diet. He grew up eating this and wouldn't eat anything unless he had one of these foods. His parents tried to correct this but it was too little too late. He ended up getting type 1 at 16 years old. Honestly was terrifying for me

I eat like I don't expect to live to see 35, I'm currently 34.

So all those times my siblings and I begged for a takeaway and my mum said 'no', she wasn't just protecting my childhood health, but also my FUTURE health... huh.

I have autism (doesn’t really affect me now but it sure did before we tried medicine for it) and I REFUSED to eat anything other than the classic Chicken Nuggets and Fries. And not like “oh I don’t want this” refusal, and more “I will literally starve myself before eating that sandwich” refusal. My mom only gave into it after I became underweight because of it. I’m definitely not healthy at 17 but I’m trying to better my diet.

As a kid, my parents did a pretty good job at keeping me healthy. Junk food was considered a treat from time to time. During my teen years, I decided to cut back eating sweets and snack food. Now a young adult, I've noticed that I've been eating healthier food but occasionally going for a sweet. During this year, I got back into exercising and I've seen some improvements.

My parents allowed an obsession with peanut butter to develop, unfortunately. Wasn't until I started biking and lost weight that my health recovered but even 15 years later I gotta have PB in my diet so I just changed the types. Switching from powder, fat free, sugar free, raw homemade, or even in sauce to balance out the effects and maximize the nutrients.

Honestly I need to eat more healthily but can’t give up my pepperoni pizza lol love the videos

"If you eat healthy foods you'll be more healthy." - putting that on my refrigerator.

Wish my dad remembered what I liked to eat as a kid during my teen years. He'd usually forget every week and just buy popcorn or poptsrts and fast food a lot. Thankfully I'm still young and changing the way I eat

My family wasn't the best at eating healthy. Granted, we ate fruits like apples and veggies like carrots and cauliflower with ranch as a snack, but we also went all or nothing on the meat whenever we had it (we grew up pretty poor, so meat was a bit hard to come by, so whenever we could afford meat, we got our money's worth, lol!) Another thing we did was after dinner we would watch TV and eat entire bags of chips with dip, as well as cheap chocolate until it was bed time. I think this was because a lot of aspects of my childhood was pretty hard for my mom, sisters, and I, so we just sort of self medicated with junk foods that gave us a quick dopamine hit? We all also tended to binge eat in general right after a grocery haul because my dad had a binge eating disorder and would stay up all night eating everything in the house and didn't really care if us kids didn't really have any food. We couldn't afford to do major grocery trips to keep the fridge and cupboards full, so what we would do is when we got home from grocery shopping when my dad was sleeping (he worked nights, so he slept most of the day), we would unload the groceries, and then just start eating as much as we possibly could of whatever we wanted until dad woke up, ate breakfast, and went to work, which was when we would break out the chocolate and the chips and ate until bedtime. We did this because we knew that all of the good food would be eaten, and that the next day we would be back to trying to make meals out of what our dad didn't want. I was also very lactose intolerant and my mom didn't know about alternatives to dairy, so I never drank a lot of milk or consumed a lot of dairy or calcium rich products. But I believe this lifestyle took a hit on my health. When I was a child, I was pretty tall for a female my age, and my growth charts predicted that I may grow to be 5'9" or even taller. Well, when puberty hit, my friends all shot up to be quite tall while I only grew two inches from when I was age 11-16. Now I'm 21, only 5'2", anemic because I still view meat as something that should be scarce, and had to teach myself to not binge eat all of my food after going to the grocery store because I no longer live with my dad so I can now save my food for later when I am hungry. I also had to teach myself to appreciate healthy food, which helped me stop being obese by losing 75 pounds. With that being said, eating habits are so important to teach children when they are young, because even though these habits can be changed with hard work, it is still important to try to teach children good eating habits when they are young.

i grew up mainly on pasta and cheese and was rather overweight but now i eat meat and pasta and somehow have managed to get somewhat healthy but i definitely felt the effects of being obese for a while

ive been a vegetarian all my life but i am overweight (in asian standards) bc i keep on snacking during my free time :" thanks mom and dad for making me eat even though im full

I grew up on junk food but never became overweight despite my terrible diet. However, I feel like because of my bad diet as a kid, my memory isn’t as good as it could be and I get distracted easily.

Thanks for the lesson life noggin this was very useful too me!!!

This isn’t related to the question of the video, but what is the effect of going an amount of time without food (5 hours) and then eating but still eating the normal amount of nutrients?

I already am not at my peak, but there is nothing that I just need to muster the motivation to change. It will have to be gruesome and dedicated but it should be possible

I started eating correctly and exercising at the end of november, until now lost about 4kg and probably grew some muscle from swimming and fast walking in total 3 times a week (Takes a total of 4-4.5 hours each week). And instead of sandwiches at work I am having a huge salad that lasts for the entire day, containing 3 cucumbers, 2 tomatoes, about 50g of corn, and small pieces of red pepper (around 20-30 grams) then I have a banana and an apple to back it up. At the evening I am having a big meat meal with some carbs and my body basically gets all it needs during the day. I do however allow myself to have a take out (pizza \ fast food, etc) once a week and it barely damages my routine, still losing weight, still building muscle. Been doing it for almost 2 months now and I won't stop until I lose like 20kg of what I gained during covid. Will probably take another year or so. Do yourselves a favor and start today, you will thank yourself later, I already feel lighter and some people noticed I lost weight.

Dear Blocko: what if half of humans were immortal

This was perfect, I'm gonna make sure I'm able to thank my mother similarly

my mum kinda ruined my health she used to ONLY have junk food to the point where i'd practically beg for vegetables. i guess one good thing came out of that: most of the time i refuge junk food so i'm more controlled when it comes to junk food.

Damn makes me wanna stay healthy. Ngl my parents love me but sometimes can do too much.

it’s okay if my health is a lil messed up. my parents love me and i eat everyday so that makes up for it :))

i havent watched your videos in a couple of years you were one of the reasons im good at science lol

In retrospect this makes a ton of sense. I think I got a good diet as a kid and I will make sure any children I have will as well.

My parents did a really good with food for me, I cant remember how they did it but they said I just really enjoyed what my mam cooked for me, nowadays I still love a balanced diet, if I eat the same thing all the time I'd get bored of it, love myself some variety (but I am really bad for sweet stuff)

_._ Nah, I'm good.

This is for all the grandmas, whom their grandkids visit for holidays

Here within 1 minute of upload! I saw the title and was like: "Wha?" And pressed play

I tried avoiding type 2 diabetes and got type 1 diabetes. Thanks life!

My mom puts me and my sister on a healthy diet for post of the winter every winter and for a bit of the summer so we eat healthy for sports,thank goodness

How strange that I managed to eat healthy enough that I am essentially the tallest in the family... Guess I have good parents, then.

Grew up in a poor Asian house hold. Alot of rice and meat and veggies boiled in broth. Not so much on health but on food we can access like back in home country. Alot of stir fry and only foods

Damn, when i was younger my parents would always push unhealthy foods. During my teen years i rebelled by only wanting to eat healthy. They were genuinely upset. I was super short up untill then. Im 6ft now and super skinny. Sadly i dont have much muscle mass tho.

Takis. These chips are engineered to be the most addicting kind of chips. Garlic, onion powder, trans fat, chili and even sugar all purposefully used to trigger the taste buds in the most extreme way

"Clean Plate Club" is a throwback!

My 4-year-old niece would cry for candies and chocolates every single day. What should I do? Keep her happy or keep her healthy?

Anyone else's eyes darting from this video the DEFINITELY NOT WHAT THEY WANT TO BE thing they are currently eating? Just me?

Life + Noggin = lifenoggin

My mother told me to eat vegetables,meat,fish and other foods that is good for you so I didn’t grow up short I am around 180 cm but in a different country measure is a different number I don’t know how to convert it but at least I am tall enough to reach the top shelf in the grocery store.

I can't ever not have instant ramen in a pantry. Mostly because my mom put ramen in my thermos for a school lunch sometimes

Mmm. When I was very young I was skinny and healthy. Then I started to go on visitation with father. That's when my added weight began to happen because they ate out a lot. Now that's what I was told from my mother, and I believe it but idk still. I feel like I'm in a thickle position of trying to loose weight and don't know how. I have asthma because I'm allergic to cats and dogs, but not I'm starting to wonder if its because of my weight too. I really want to reverse the effects of loosing weight but I bearly know how to begin and have so much stress on my plate with school that I have no time to manage of thinking about it a lot

bell peppers stuffed with rice and mince is the dish I can't refuse even when full and can eat it until I pass out otherwise I can even be starving and still reject a food offer p.s. I'm heavy eater so passing out from eating can occur after over 2 kg at once

Funny video, but a very important message!

Me watching this while eating chocolate: 😶

Athletic Greens tastes great. Love the stuff.

Do a video about why are average temperatures goes down with newer generations

I heard that eating the right pizza for breakfast is healthier than cereal. Is that true?

OH MY GOD, THAT IS WHY I'M SO SHORT. All 18 years of my life I was dirt poor growing up and most of the time I would just have to go hungry. The times I DID get to eat, it was pretty much just junk food. That's why I'm so short. You mean my parents had the audacity to, NOT ONLY HAVE ME IN THE FIRST PLACE, BUT THEN CURSE ME WITH THIS?

For me I always want to eat so much Vegetables and Fruits so I don't get fat. I eat sweet biscuits sometimes for my appetite energy.

Me:okay My parents:(aw phuck)

My parents ruined my health but for completely different reasons lol

Wish you were sponsored by Huel, AG1 sounds great but not worth the switch for me. Great vid!

becoming a life noggin character? it already has 250,970 entries. am i to believe i have an actual chance?! anyway i finished an entry so we'll see.

Unfortunately, there's quite a lot. Sure I can add healthy food to the mix, but considering where I'm going now, it's either that or a whole bunch of water with only one big meal at the end of the day. I wouldn't mind spending the time preparing for that, but apparently that seems like a big waste to others, and I have to agree. Otherwise, I'd just be putting off work for something no-one really understands. At least in the country I live now.

But all damage from dietary choices are always reversible supposedly, right?

“Sigh” I’m screwed.

I mostly had snacks but unhealthy kinds of snacks but always had healthy course meals like dinner and lunch

This made both me and my brain frown

So that's why I'm considered one of the shortest kids in my grade (if not the) and get sick often?

I’m really lucky I watched this video today. I’ve started puberty for like nearly a year I think and I’m currently 13. I’ll start eating healthier. Any tips please? Edit: should I eat stuff like steak? Is that counted as unhealthy

I grew up eating loads of meat, though I eat the vegetables first because veggies are very important for my lifelong health. My brother eats fruit as an alternative to veggies because they are tastier. To me, taste doesn't even matter at all on healthy or unhealthy foods. My brother dislikes veggies because they taste horrible, but why would veggies taste that bad??

I want a blockobell!

Cool thanks!

i eat healthier than my brother and he gets sick more than me. i'm typically at the mercy of whatever my college food court is serving

I can’t give up those lofthouse frosted sugar cookies

Triangle Bob? No. Pizzangle Bob!

20 years old, instant noodles every few weeks. Should I change this habit?

“You are what you eat” Oh, so it’s not paranormal and inhumane?

I stopped eating dead animals when I was 11 years old. I’m 70 now and pretty healthy.

I think i eat helfy. I really like corn and kidney beans. I also to eat like frozen vegetabel mix.

I gag and get the hiccups when I eat fruits and vegetables. It’s like my body is telling me to reject them

Some of us out here like might have?

i cant quit french toast

Can't believe they actually accepted a sponsor from a health shake scam.

I eat a lot of sugar now and as a kid. It has made me a sweet/nice person and I find that funny

My favorite food is artichoke.

I ate okay when I was kid, some stuff healthy, and some stuff not so healthy. I'm a young adult but I should work on my diet

Yea probably not the best food but even with the little money we had there was at least a meal on the table and we never starved.

you can reset your gut biome and get your health back with the 5 R protocol you can be healed but conventional doctors and big pharma dont want you to know that its bad for buisness to cure customers they wont come back. go to a functional/holistic doctor and ask about the 5R protocol

Ramen,never can quit it

Pizza roll ups and battery acid. PERFECT BALANCE

Fish, more fish.

Circlia, HONEY? Blocko offscreen lore

If my body doesn't thrive off pizza, then why does it taste so good!?

I used to be almost obese, but I started to get healthier around the age of 12-14.

A four n a half minute advert haha

I grew up on mac n cheese, ramen and ham and cheese sandwiches because we didn’t have much money growing up, most nutritional thing I ate was ham, so of course i’m short

i woulda been unstoppable if I was over 6'

My favorite food to eat is yogurt, and my favorite drink is milk.

"might"!?

I think i eat with 8.5 healthyness.. LISTEN I CANT GIVE UP THE SOUR SLUSHIES

My fav food is cheese cake is I had the option to either be healthy and never eat cheese cake or be unhealthy and eat cheese cake when you want I'd choose option l 2

Parents can be so annoying sometimes, but that just makes us love them even more.

I have an orange with my lunch everyday.

I have a very bad habit of comfort eating.. and I don't eat healthy. I should start eating more healthy while I have time and workout - it's just a bit hard to start eating healthy, since I am very very picky and most of the healthy foods are gross to me. Either by smell/taste or texture. So yaaaaay for being super picky... it's a joke inside my friend groups that I don't eat almost anything.

My dad always take my family out to eat like every 3 days Probably why I’m 12 pounds extra fat
