Choosing Healthier Foods | Healthy Eating Made Simple #1 

Hmmm I feel like it’s about the same still but the complicated Jedi ways always claim faster results and generally sounds better on the surface so people gravitate to it more

@@tpespos Depends on the person. You have to remember RP viewers are mostly a self selected group of obsessive optimisers who geek out on this shit

I think this is primarily why, perhaps after genetics, different dietary approaches work better for different people. Adherence to improved patterns is a real pain, so anything that makes it easier is better than not doing it at all.

@@AtomicSlugg I mean that's life, isn't it? Make highly beneficial actions into habits.

reminds me of finance and investing. people will focus on individual stocks over just the boring stuff, like diversification and patience.

Fr cheekbones could cut... something...probably

Gotta get that revenue

Potatos are an amazing carb! Tons of energy!

there is nothing beyond epidemiology that says there is any benefit to fibre in the diet. A single RCT done on fibre on 64 people with bowel conditions like IBS, constipation etc saw a dose response to fibre. In this RCT the participants were divided into high, moderate, low and zero fibre diets. High fibre diets are resulted in increase of symptoms or no change, moderate fibre diets either resulted in some minor resolution or no change. Low fibre diets resulted in some resolution or in some cases complete resolution and Zero fibre diets resulted in complete resolution for all participants. A 6 month follow up can done and found most participants continued with a low fibre diet and had no return of issues. Those who had higher fibre diets or returned to higher fibre diets had no further resolution or they had return of past issues. Any what on earth do you mean by 'healthy' fats if you are eating lean protein?

Did it work?

how did you go: ??

He got skinny and died

I need someone to please answer this question for me: Let’s say you go on a diet and in this diet you completely stop weight lifting. You cut down on fats, carbs and sugars BUT you continue consuming a high amount of protein. In this scenario in which you have completely stopped weight lifting, will you lose fat or will you lose muscle? (Remember you did not cut down on protein intake but did completely stop weight lifting and are in a caloric deficit)

I have another one - please search for "The Onion just eat a vegetable" it's a satire but basically absolutely correct

Lard is high in saturated fat... what you don't want

Pretty sure "veggies, fruits, whole grains" is just a loose generalization and legumes are included.

Cory Norell haha I always think that. Love the intro music in their vids.

You just did.

He's wrong about canola oil. Most vegetable oils are toxic, olive oil is great. It's easy to get things mixed up.

@@PendlayRoe That's what I have been reading/seeing mostly as well.

It's highly processed, which means it's bad for chemophobes and other quacks and primitivists. It's not as good as, say, olive oil. It came on the scene as a wonder oil, with a top-rate marketing/publicity industry campaign, at precisely the time when the public fad was to be completely paranoid about saturated fats and obsess over the saturated/unsaturated distinction. Canola, by a narrow margin, is the fat with the "best" such ratio. Now we know the hype was silly but Canola has already taken over and has stayed there from inertia. I never use the stuff. But it's not super unhealthy, just for example not particularly rich in monounsaturated fats.

Nah it’s not as bad as the zealot dietary doomsday neurotic morons on the internet portray it to be.

Seitan, tofu, tvp

It's fine but not optimal. You miss out on micronutrients you get from meat, fish or eggs, for example.

I’d like an answer to this too. I was really surprised when he said it’s all good. I was like, hold up.

It is. Read into the link between aspertame (and most artificial sweeteners, even stevia) and depression, cancer and other health issues. It was banned up until recently. Best to ‘replace’ soda with sparkling water with fruits or just have it occasionally 😊

That's not what the research shows... They are processed and definitely not natural, but they aren't shown to be "bad " for health. If diet soda helps you stick to your diet plan then its better to have it in there than not!

@@Hoop639 In studies they don't seem to manage to help people lose weight at all. Better just quit sodas altogether

@@Goriaas uh studies show groups who drink diet soda vs those who drink just water lost more weight and maintained while the other group rebound. There's nothing wrong with diet soda.

@@nickhutcheson8580 Show me the study that shows that replacing water with diet soda makes you lose more weight. I'd take a look at this. This claim is so ridiculous though that I have no reason to believe that diet soda is better than water for weight loss

@@Goriaas i didn't say it's better. I'm saying diet soda and water. Why on earth would I ditch water? I just like the little sweet kick I get from diet soda is all. That's what helped these people in the study stick to their diet. You get a little sweet kick and you don't add unnecessary calories. You can read it though. All studies I've seen saying diet soda is bad are other just hypothesis based off of correlations. But that doesn't really mean causation. And rat studies where they are given a 1000 percent amount more then you'd get in a diet coke.

Yeah, don't be pissing mama off now! Eat them cookies, just 'slowly'.. with much smacking of the lips and compliments in between bites. Maybe slip a couple to the dog so she'll think you ate more than you did. 😁😉

Ok, boomer.

@@timofule3614 thanks Kellogg

Try different sources and see which agree better that others with your digestion. Examples; lean meats, lentils & beans, protein shakes, eggs, vegan meat substitutes, milk

Prolly more valuable than your useless comment tho.

TL:DR Mono unsaturated is pretty much down as being the best to eat lots of, however saturated fat is most likely better for you than eating a load of omega-6 polyunsaturated fats e.g. peanut oil. Omega 3 is great for heart health all round, doesn't really effect LDL:HDL too much though, its more to do with tissue quality and inflammation. Mike is THE GUY when it comes to muscle science, his nutrition science? Ehhhh, good enough for most people 👌😁 (Disclaimer, I eat ALOT of saturated fat so I have a vested intrest in saturated fat being good 😉 20% fat beef mince for the win... I hope 🤞) Oh, and there's literally dozens of these kinds of studies and papers and reviews I could cite, I just pulled 2 at random(ish). How's this? "Not only has the condemnation of saturated fats led to an increased consumption of carbohydrates, it has also led to several dietary guidelines recommending replacement of saturated fats with polyunsaturated fats, without specifying which polyunsaturated fatty acid (ie, Ω-3 vs Ω-6). The recommendation for increasing polyunsaturated fat stems from pooled analyses of data looking at increasing Ω-3 and Ω-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids.19 ,20 However, a meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials showed that replacing a combination of trans-fats and saturated fats with Ω-6 polyunsaturated fats (without simultaneously increasing Ω-3 fatty acids) leads to an increased risk of death.21 These results were corroborated when data were recovered from the Sydney Diet Heart Study and included in an updated meta-analysis.22 Other human trials, not included in the aforementioned meta-analysis, include the Anti-Coronary Club trial, which showed that more people died (overall (26 vs 6) and due to coronary heart disease (8 vs 0)) when saturated fat was replaced with polyunsatured fat.23 The National Diet Heart Trial, a randomised, double-blind study, also showed a higher number of cardiovascular events (n=4) on a diet that was high in the polyunsaturated(P)/saturated(S) fat ratio (2 : 1), than on a diet high in saturated fat (n=1, P/S=0.4).24 Thus, advice to replace saturated fats with polyunsaturated fats (ie, Ω-6) may increase the risk of coronary heart disease, cardiovascular events, death due to coronary heart disease and overall mortality.21-24" - openheart.bmj.com/content/1/1/e000032 ~ Changes in total saturated fatty acids as well as myristic and palmitic acids were also inversely associated with changes in HL activity (P < 0.05). With the high-fat diet only, variation in dietary total saturated fatty acid intake was inversely correlated (P < 0.01) with concentrations of small, dense LDL of Sf 0-5. This correlation was significant specifically for myristic acid (P < 0.001). Stearic acid (18:0), monounsaturates, and polyunsaturates showed no significant associations with lipoprotein concentrations. These data indicate that a high saturated fat intake (especially 14:0 and 16:0) is associated with increased concentrations of larger, cholesterol-enriched LDL and this occurs in association with decreased HL activity. - pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/9583838/ (The full text is available through the link, top right corner.) If reading this stuff is a bit too heavy I'll summarize. Basically yes, saturated fat will raise LDL but there are different types of LDL. The smaller one is the one that coats your tubes, the larger one isn't as good as HDL but isn't too bad either. The science is still on going and they recognise that certain genetic traits may impact this. However switching out saturated fat for omega 6 polyunsaturated fats isn't a good idea. Omega 3 is fine but you don't really want to be cooking with that stuff 😁, mono unsaturated fat is probably the best out there for large consumption BUT thats not to say that saturated fat is bad (in any quantity), particularly if it is high in myristic (14:0) and palmitic (16:0) acids (beef fat for example is about 60% saturated, 40% monounsaturated. The saturated part of beef fat is about 50% palmitic (good) 5%ish myrisitc (the best) and 45% Stearic (18:0 neutral). Again though, the science is still being done on all of this. Its a BIG subject with so much variance in people's genetics, fat source, life style's, all round diet, weight ect ect

Oh, and in the interest of fairness, a paper that states the opposite in regards to certain things. - www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5475232/ This one seems to conclude that omega-6s in exchange for saturated fat is a good move... but then, scroll down to the bottom and see who funded it. Take from that what you will. It IS heavy with citations through out though. I love this stuff 😁 its like philosophy, just seems to go round in circles forever haha .... 🤔 I need to get some blood work done!

Agreed also I disagree with canola being good for you it's highly processed but still a lot of good info on being healthy

Pretty sure "veggies, fruits, whole grains" is just a loose generalization and legumes are included.

Ghee is amazing
