It’s kinda funny but also frightening, that a YouTube channel like this one is a better source of nutrition education than your local doctor is.
I feel like I gotta get a pHd in nutrition to make educated decisions about my diet
If I ever get to a point where I actually question everything, I’ll have this channel to thank for always looking for the observable truth in matters where there’s a lot of poor assumptions and misdirections. Much thanks my guy. Keep up the truth searching.
Mother of proteins.. the quality of this video is leagues ahead than freaking Nat-Geo documentaries.
The way you visually present references – one of the most arduous tasks for any serious inquiry – is simply orgasmic.
Amazing work at demystifying some aspects of this eras most widespread malady.
I knew nothing before watching this video. Now, I know even less.
The scariest thing from this is, the most well known information can actually be the most fatal. Not just nutrition, but any form of knowledge and media……. I’m honestly scared just writing about it
This channel makes me feel like I have joined a conspiracy theory cult… that is actually correct and well supported!
Is nobody going to talk about how super impressive it is that he reads research papers in kanji?
I watched this video because I’m changing my major to clinical nutrition and I’ve struggled with weight gain over this past year where before I never had any problems so I know that struggle now but this video makes me question everything. We all know that nutrition research that comes out is always confusing everybody and supporting “fad diets” so nobody knows what to believe to put into their bodies to make it healthy. 😞 this video makes me question I’m even going into nutrition if this is how confusing all the research is and that it’s not great but that’s what we are supposed to use to treat people’s health problems.😪 how do treat people well with botched research?
Me: *a fairly healthy 19 year old*
“Sitting can cause thrombosis”
Me: *frantically watches this video and does jumping jacks*
I once took a course on statistics. It taught me that most ‘scientific’ studies are either severely limited or downright flawed.
So In other words:
1. Eat fat, protein and complex carbs?
2. Eat whole foods and minimize your intake of processed food and foods with added sugar
3. Excersice regularly
This video is so well done! I’ve been researching the American “pill culture,” for my AP Language class and part of it centers around changing your diet to make up for nutritional deficiency vs. a supplement. While you didn’t cover this subject specifically, you gave me a great look into both dietary testing and pharmaceutical research.
If you think it would be interesting enough for one of your videos (and you haven’t covered something similar already), could you analyze pill culture? For context, I would define it as collectively the rise of self-prescription and in general, taking drugs you don’t need (partially due to DTC drug advertising or a pre-conceived belief about a particular medication’s purpose). It’s a very complex subject, but I think you would nail it 🙂
Longest living woman in Italy of 117 years, was eating only 2/3 eggs a day for the last decades. My grandmother at 96 consumes huge amount of olive oil, like a cup a day, homemade pasta with tomato sauce each day. Meat weekly at most, and a glass of red wine (if available) when eating.
What I notice is that her eating is very frugal, what is available she eats. Sometimes she walks in the country to forage different kinds of vegetables and roots that she steam and eat with a loaf of bread
Also, in that “fat” study, they listed “soybean oil” as their source of fat, which is one of the dirties, cheapest SEED oils. Seed oils are also
inflammatory.
Ed Bedhead – Judging by your profile pic you’re the dude that used to fight with everyone on Xbox Live back in 2009.
@Oskar R you must be fun at parties
Supplements are largely a scam. Most of what’s in them isn’t bio-available, from my understanding. Why would I take pills when I can just eat a varied diet? People are delusional, I’ll take small amounts of food over chalk you have to swallow whole any day
hi:) i think it’s not the sitting part that can cause illness but more like what you’re not doing while sitting : if you’re sitting, you’re not exercising you’re basically not moving 🙂
@Eddie more fun than you, guaranteed. now I’m gonna go and thank my mom for not naming me Eddie.
100% of people who ate food died, so that means I’ll never eat anything and I’ll live forever!
It’s not just what you eat. Try climate. People are more likely to die from cold than heat.
Same I’m 48. Now I will wax my woo woo more often 😊
Welcome to reality, this is the upside down world !
totally, but ppl still put them in a pedestal and argument based on that kind of information.. Science is not that evolve but it is viewed as the ultimate truth. Ppl do the same mistake with science as with religion, they don’t think for themselves, so they will believe everything sciencereligion says..
@Kehlana Kareem Amen to that. There’s a guy near Moscow who makes oil. What he told completely changed my opinion about oils in general. In short – must use responsibly. He uses grandpa methods 200ml cold pressed takes 16 hours and is sold in the next day. Also he gives oilcake to the customers too, so nothing valuable is thrown away.
@T0efu go find it, search how its processed. Vegetable and canola is also horrible.
true
john m fitness coaches are just as useless as doctors and even worse most of the times
Twist: “What I’ve Learned” is my local doctor
If there is a person you should never listen to when it comes to nutrition, its your doctor!! 99,9 pct of them do not have a clue!!
Keep watching then, it’ll leave you worry-free if the trend continues xD
@Starving Mosquito citations and detailed analysis of studies
@Oatmeal what’s not English about what I said?
@John Ford it’s nothing about what you said, but rather what you haven’t said
@Oatmeal oh I forgot to say something English huh
He presents problems and gives the Right solution perfectly. Seemlessly.
Ewwww SOY 🤮
Proper. *nods* Don’t forget the pinkie
welcome to learning!
The reaction to eggs is highly individual. Myself and my cousin, we get high cholesterol, if we do consume too many eggs a week (we limit ourselves to at most 5 eggs and 1 egg in other foods; 6 eggs tops. But, we do eat at least 3 eggs a week for Choline). However, my cousin’s mother eats on average 2-3 eggs a day and her cholesterol levels are perfect. It depends on a person. Choline has been vilified; however, Choline is as much a vitamin as is vitamin D. They both are made in our bodies, but in insufficient amounts. We need both extra Choline and extra vitamin D from either supplements and/or foods.
The dietary cholesterol is not assimilated directly into our bodies unless we would eat ton of it (the same applies to steroids; however, American (US) beef is so high in steroids that assimilation is possible and sometimes does happen). However, if, most people, eat a lot of saturated fat and protein, they will end up with high cholesterol.
You should already be questioning everything lmao
I’m a med student and it’s alarming how LITTLE they teach us about nutrition… it’s awful
@J H great response! thank u!
Wait until you visit “the thinking ape” channel.
Nah, this has a lot of misinformation too. I lived in USA for 6 years and i somewhat understand why ppl in usa become obese easily. Americans just eat too much processed food.
Instead of using fresh garlic, americans like to use garlic paste (which is drenched in oil). Instead of using fresh corn, americans like to use canned corn (which contains much more sugar).
It’s really easy to consume more calories than recommended in usa, due to this practice.
@Centrioless Canned corn has more sugar?
It’s not that people would “rather use” those things, it’s that the processed versions are more affordable. Corn isn’t too expensive, as long as you plan on using it quickly. If not, it makes more sense to get canned corn. Usually the healthier foods tend to be the ones that don’t last very long, while processed goods can keep a lot longer.
Also, I’ve never heard of anyone using garlic paste over regular garlic. Minced or powdered garlic seems to be the norm.
As someone who is part Okinawan, I really appreciate you introducing the the topic with the anecdote. I always thought it was kind of weird how often the west is so fixated on the “Okinawan diet” and its correlation with life longevity. I personally believe it comes down to a combination of factors including community support, an active social life, lower stress from living in one’s own home, and continual exercise and physical activity (cooking from scratch, gardening, grocery shopping, etc) among other things.
Maybe knowledge isn’t true and we just happen to make it work
Umm, so I can eat 25 eggs per day from now on right?
If you want to figure out if the ‘science’ is tainted, find out who paid for the study… conclusions rarely (if ever) go against the financiers!!
When you eat a big mac meal at mcdonalds with a large fry and coke, You’re getting only getting 25g of protein from the meat. The bun is 45g of carbs, the large fry is 66g, the large coke soda is 77g of carbs. You’re eating like 200g of carbs with 25g of protein, you are not eating meat, you are eating an 90% carb meal. Even the small amount of meat is cooked in transfats, which inflame the arteries. People assume that americans eat a ton of meat, when in reality the average american diet is 90% refined carbs
I have mildly elevated blood platelets (and white blood cells) which can also raise the risk of thrombosis.
whenever you get new information that goes against your beliefs do you think it’s a conspiracy? Lol how about you stay unbiased as soon as new information comes to you so you can make an informed decision instead of talking down on “conspiracy’s” cuz you don’t have enough time to do your own research. Do your own research and you will sound like a conspiracy theorist
Tell me about it. I took this course at UCI for biology / ecology. You can prove almost anything through the Sophistry of sophisticated, biased statistics.
It’s pretty crazy how new awareness of one’s ignorance can erase “knowledge” that one didn’t even know they didn’t hold. Subconscious beliefs that become upended.
“A little knowledge is dangerous, so is a lot” Albert Einstein
Lowkey best comment ive seen a while
100% people who didn’t ate food also died…
You don’t seem to count alive people in your statistics so neither am i
@Shayan An that point nutrition pills become your only “source of energy and nutrients”.
it seem s to feet the definition of food..
Corn and more corn!
Yes! I noticed the variables in my studies when I was in class becoming a certified nutritionist- it drove me nuts that the researchers came to hard conclusions with so many variables
@Carboholic Kim I eat meat and eggs every single day. I have to force myself to eat 2 of the 5 meals I eat every day, otherwise like I said if I only eat when I’m hungry I lose weight. I also snack on nuts throughout the day. Some people just have a crazy metabolism. I was 130 pounds all throughout high school. Now I am 170 and I have to eat when I’m not hungry to stay 170. I was 175 two weeks ago and went down to 168 cause I stopped force feeding now I’m back up to 170 because I’m forcing myself to eat again. I just don’t have a big appetite naturally. I’ve even force fed up to 207lbs but when I stopped forcing the food I went right back down to 170.
I ate food and didn’t die, so not 100% i’m afraid.
@Fariz Adnan Benefits of Living in Japan:You get access to all of Earth’s Secrets.
@Secretlyanothername Around 51% of all Humans.
Which means that Monolinguals, aka Americans are in the Minority.
First red pill?
@Nic YT
Why do you not want to eat carbs?
@Brian Emmett why?
Just need to follow me
He grew up in Houston, but works in Japan. He reached his “level 5”, or whatever its called, in Japanese proficiency that many Japanese people take most of their growing years (through high school, and some college years) to achieve… in 2 years.
Dude is dedicated to learning stuff! Lol
That college sh*t doesn’t tell you anything lol, otherwise america wouldn’t have such a drastic obesity epidemic
He’s so cool! 🤩
Average American meal is just seed oils soy and corn in a blender
Not only that… you need a phd now just to have a damn conversation with anyone..
My wife is a vegan and Im not..
You can imagine the conundrum
We can even talk about food…
@Kehlana Kareem it’s not entirely factually correct, almost all vegetable oil don’t have micronutrients and are processed, the exception is Extra virgin olive oil, since it’s extracted from olives only through mechanical process,and thus retains fat soluble vitamins,like vitamin E, and tocopheroles
Wasn’t the diet in Okinawa heavy in pork prior to the war? I swear I heard that somewhere..
All reputable studies on longevity say exactly that! 🙂
Count calories dude and keep in check omega 3
And also the high carb diet the paper refers to is boiled potatoes, not french fries, cookies and pasta. BIG difference.
@Fariz Adnan poly is 3 or more
Which is why there’s multiple studies and people who analyze those studies. Yes it’s flawed, but it’s also not useless, which is what people miss
@Jake fax
What do you mean by “lower stress by living in one’s own home?”
Not minimize processed foods..STOP PROCESSED FOODS
@c7042 banana one of healthiest fruits especially if very ripe
Outstanding feature
