@@pattyjordan7620 Aren't oats bad because they contain avenin? And do u have any advice on alternatives to oats to put in smoothies as a complex carb for extra calories?
@@Simnettnutrition cilantro, parsley, ginger, turmeric (and black pepper), cinnamon, chia seeds, goji berries, seeded watermelon, oregano, burdock, yellow dock, dandelion (greens, flower and roots), saw pawmetto berry, sasparilla, red clover. There are a bunch of ideas for you. All I ask for is 1% of the ad revenue hahaha... but seriously this could be phenomenal content that would benefit so many people. Great work brother, namaste :)
If you do, really consider buying a good quality blender - especially for the nice cream it is key. I had a cheaper blender first, and it almost "hacked" the banana and it was very crystally ice. With a vitamix the cream is really smooth, totally worth it :). I eat nice cream about 3-4 times a week, it is my go to snack :).
I received a Vitamix Accent series for Christmas. It has become my favorite and most used kitchen Appliance. I make more smoothies than ever. All kinds of flavors and varieties. Love it... love it love... I use it almost daily. One idea: 15 peeled naval oranges and water for the best pulp oranges juice ever. More water for thinner juice. Derek's smoothies 4 x week. Makes extra size and freeze for next day.
For frozen bananas and especially dry dates you need to make sure that your blender has a strong "connection" to its lower part. I wrecked my old (cheap) one with some dates because the plastic parts just broke.
The Vitamin is sooooo expensive... check out the Oster Versa as an affordable, powerful, awesome alternative! I have the 1400 watt and it is awesome for 200 bucks!
There is also this smaller type of banana in Mexico that is very slightly pink instead of the whiter inside color and it is SO MUCH sweeter! I believe it's called either Manzano or Dominico banana. It would be AMAZING in smoothie bowls!
Wait is he born in the year of the goat? That’d be interesting. 🐏 but yeah, Simmett might very well be the GOAT! Quality content all the time, it’s just unprecedented and truly inspiring. Like so amazing. Thank you for all you and Crystal do!
A berry?! How funny! I think an episode on herbs would be great, the uses in cooking, nutrition values, and how they can be used as natural medicine. I like drinking my own herbal teas when I feel a cold or sinus headache coming.
You are amazing, such positive attitude, never talk bad about anyone, always smiling, always cheerful, you are the image of health and happiness, and you inspire us all with your great advice!! One of the best RU-vidrs ever, and a great asset for veganism. Thank you!!
1800 likes vs 11 dislikes. That’s what I call a nice ratio 👍🏻 but so deserved! You doing such a Great job Derek! Keep up the amazing work! I would love to see dates next. Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪
I'm studying for my bachelor to be certified nutritionist in the Netherlands and I love your content it's still very interesting to watch even tho I feel like I know most common things
yes!! i LOVE going to the store and getting like 50 bananas at once for $10 and looking a little silly to everyone else. the place i go to sells produce that’s going “bad” for so cheap! there’s always room in my freezer for bananers 🤩
Wow, thank you!! 🍌💥💥 Maybe a vid about GREENS....I bet you already have that planned! I never know which kinds are easiest to prepare/different benefits of each kind! Always just baby bok choy, spinach or baby kale but I need to branch out!👀💚❤️💚 You’re the best Derek!!!
Wooo liked before even watching! Thanks for this, I couldn't live without bananas, literally love them and every day look forward for a good feast (3 to 6)! Keep up the good work Derek 🙏🏻🌱🍌🍌🍌🇬🇧
Great video. Been meaning to comment on your coffee video but here is more appropriate. On that one you said you doubted anyone would be allergic to bananas in response to a question. I experience a “breakout” under the skin on my cheeks when I eat bananas in any form, whether it is one a week or 5 a day. I never had an issue in my younger years but now it is a problem. I have carefully narrowed it down and now completely eliminated all bananas from my diet to be absolutely certain. For the first time since going vegan over 8 years ago my face is slowly healing. Bizarre but true. Nothing else effects me this way. Given your work in the field of nutrition and the number of people who ask you questions from around the world I wanted to share my experience with you. Yes, I have ridiculously sensitive skin, though that has calmed tremendously since changing from vegetarian to vegan. Wanted to get that out there in case anyone wondered who read this. Than-q for this fantastic series. You are providing a great service to many. I can only imagine the time and effort you have put into each of these videos. You are greatly appreciated for all you do! With peace, gratitude, grace and light!
The little banana you’re talking about is called “rulos” in the Dominican Republic and you can get it every where there. Lol also, you can eat the banana when is green, you just have to boil it!! Great video by the way!
I tried this just now. I added lily’s cacao chips to it, a little stevia vanilla cream drops and three bananas. It turned out really good! I’m gonna try the strawberry 🍓 or just vanilla nice cream one day. Thanks Derek!
You should talk about avocados next. I'm loving this series & I love bananas. I use bananas in baking instead of eggs. My kids like it better. My kids love when I make banana ice cream.
When I travel I always assume they will not have healthy plant foods for me so I pack lots of bananas. They don’t need refrigeration, cooking or packaging. PERFECT 👌
One tip for freezing the bananas. Cut them into rounds of equal thickness and lay them flat in a freezer bag, perhaps with some from of was paper between layers or just one layer per bag. But this way you can take out just what you want when you want, and it is easier on the blender or bullet. This is how I do it and how I first introduced my son to ice cream. He loved it. Also, make sure they are very ripe and then you get the full sweetness of them.
Love bananas! Every morning I mix one banana with oats, soya yogurt, two dates, chia seeds, flax seeds, kale, cinamon and almond milk. It works so good to me! 💚
I like how you highlight specific food and dig deeply into the nutritional content. Watching your videos gives me a reason to stay vegan. And it makes me realize what i’m doing is right.Thank you very much for making so many helpful videos.You’re amazing and inspiring. Keep up the good work👍🏻
First time tested: 2 frozen bananas + 0.75dl of water + 5g of unsweetened cocoa powder. Mix water+cocoa first, then everything in blender. It's amazing!! I can't believe how simple it is and still makes so delicious and healthy ice cream.
Thank you thank you thank you!! Someone suggested recently I should not eat that much bananas but I love them. Thanks to you I don’t worry anymore. Plus, you put smile on my face (🍌🍌🍌 t-shirt) 🖐🏻🤠🍵
I have the same railroad track, s here in Courtenay ,you make great video, s and I love how you make vegans understand what to eat and why .Two thumbs up on your content
Mannn. How much more views and subscribers did you get after the game changer? I'm here bc of it and boy am I glad. I'm binge watching your channel to learn as much as I can and i really enjoy it. Thanks!
I got a tour of a high-end gym (not my cheap-ass gym) in my city and I saw them selling Vivo Life products. There are only two shops in my entire country that import it apparently. Better yet, they have a smoothie bar with a whey menu AND a Vivo menu side by side on the wall. Felt so good to see that and I thought of you.
I bought a case of over ripe bananas for $2 at NPS. We froze them and now I now how to make Napolitan Nice Cream! Thanks for your videos! They are inspiring! 🍓🍐🥝🍉🍑🍊🥕🥑🌽🍠
Actually studying to become a nutritionist, I ADORE the fact you talked about fair trade and the workers. This series is AMAZING. My favorites for you to do would be celery, broccoli and pumpkin. Much love from Argentina
