God bless you luke ❤You have been the biggest inspiration and m making alot of changes in my life style and I keep spreading this information to others
Wow loved listening to you. Great voice, good diction, pleasant accent, free flow of idea, and fantastic very valuable information on sattu. The simple chana flour. Used in so many ways ranging from north to south and east to west. Thankyou for the array of knowledge in different spheres. Gbu. Heard you for the first time. Dr. Suvarna Fonseca. Goa.
Hello Luke! I am from UP and surprised how so many people don’t know about sattu. We eat stuffed paratha and a staple UP food called baati(litti) chokha. For the drink- Add 2 tablespoons of sattu Add cumin powder1 tea spoon Rock salt a pinch or per taste Squeeze half of lime Some people like adding black pepper powder too. It taste amazing, filling and refreshing on a summer day.
Thanks for giving more in depth knowledge about it, which my grandpa used to consume and endorse. Here in Madhya pradesh we make sattu by mixing flour of grams and barley. Grams have good amount of protein and barley have a cooling effect. In auyurveda Barley is know as brain tonic. It is too good for growing kids. We make savoury as well as a sweet shake. For making savoury we add rock salt, mint, coriander leaves and lemon juice, sattu and water. For sweet shake just we mix it with jaggery and milk during winter and in summer we mix sattu, milk and mishri. Apart from having great health benefits it is delicious as well.
My dear Luke. Thanks 🙏 so much for explaining Sattu benefits. You are doing a great and excellent service to not only our mother land but also to the world. Thanks is a small word for you.
Wow Luke! Thanks for bringing this to general ppl. My grandfather and entire family used to have it everyday in the morning. Once we moved out we never found sattu outside Bihar. Now I can see it's available in a lot of grocery shops around. It definitely is a great drink both in terms of taste and nutritional value.
My hubby is diabetic , we use sattu everyday, sattu mixed in milk, sattu in plain water with some spices like chillies lemon coriander leaves roasted cumin powder, sattu paratha, sattu mixed with little water mustard oil onions chillies made into a chutney like...litti with sattu filling...curd and sattu
The sad truth is people are less interested in natural foods but are more interested in processed foods Foods are good because of their benefits and nutrients not because of who endorses them
I’m from Tamilnadu. Over here v use toasted shelled black chickpeas for most of our cooking. V have chutney blended with a combo of chickpeas, coconut, green chillies & salt for breakfast. Then 2 tsp of this channa coarsely powdered in our veggies for lunch and also use it as a thickener in our gravies as side dish for rotis.
I never knew there existed a thing called sattu..I am vegetarian and was wondering how to get my proteins... thanks Luke..will order from Amazon today.
Hi Luke. U r simple great. U take so much of time to find out how a parrticular ingredient works it's benefits and it's wrong effects if taken more. How it works etc etc etc.... It is great of u to share the knowledge to the world to benefit many of them. Thank you so much.
Part 4: it's great for elderly people because one glass of this gives them a lot of energy it's it's excellent for people who are sick who are lost their appetite they don't want it food you know you can have a glass of satu and it's giving you all of this strength and all of this protein which is good quality protein for your system okay children especially okay try giving this to your children in the morning it's a great drink you just blend you know you can even mix it with a spoon satu and water okay and you give them that kind of drink they drink it they go to school it's like I wouldn't say it's completely balanced but it's a lot of nutrition for them so you want to get your kids onto this natural protein you want to get yourselves onto this natural protein you know it's fantastic as long as you're aware of your potassium levels you know don't follow this blindly it is fantastic protein for you so you got to move away from calculating your the amount of protein you consume unless you're an athlete honestly and unless you have the right kind of recovery and you know direct metabolic in your body what you really need is quality protein so you get quality protein you create a body that can assimilate protein into the right amount of amino acids you have the right gut health that can absorb all of this and transfer it to your cells and you can use a little protein to get maximum results that's how the human body works because excess protein not used by the body will become fat and most people are taking more protein and their bodies require it is very rare to come across maybe a sick patient maybe a patient going through cancer where their protein levels are low other than that it is very rare to find someone who is deficient in protein we're made to believe that we're deficient in protein with all the ads that we see all these big bodies and muscles and all that stuff someone holding a protein shake oh I have five scoops of protein in the day so we believe Oh more protein more muscle doesn't work a good workout good recovery balanced nutrition micronutrients all of these things going together will build up your entire body so get this sub 2 you can order it on Amazon you find it in most shops across the day it's an Indian superfood it doesn't even have to be called a superfood it's just the food in fact we shouldn't call it a superfood because some smart entrepreneur will start branding it as a superfood and all of a sudden we'll be paying like twice the amount for this cheap existing food in our country it'll just be termed as a superfood and we'll be paying more money for it so let's not call it a superfood let's just call it a traditional Indian food which is existed for years and years now we got to get it back into our diet have a great weekend everyone next time eat smart move more sleep
Seems like good drink , heard before but never consumed. I always have a perception protein powder /shakes are for gym goers and for people with great bodies. But this drink contains many macro elements as u suggests. Can we have this drink if we are already taking 2 bowls of lentils daily.
Sir I used to give everyday 10 am morning as breakfast 1 glass sattu,even after she got brain stroke.But this is given after when she got mild stroke.Two and 1/2year I gave her Sattu but she was reversing Diabetic ,BP 160/100,Parkinson all disease.I used to buy whole roasted chana and used griander mixer to make powder of it & using 2 to 3 big spoon mixing with 1 glass water to make 1 glass Sattu
Hey Luke, i just love your videos and relate to your food basics a lot. As a nutritionist and as a person I come from a base that good things are already there for you given by nature, the moment you need to look for artificial solutions, it's time to look inside! Would love to meet you some day.
“Screw if you feel it’s a poor man’s food!!!” 🤩🤩🤩😆😆😅😅. These videos are super informative, but I gotta be honest few of them invariably crack me up, due to your wittiest humor on nutrition!! Hats off to you Luke!! Bless!
though i have seen in comments section that you have not answered a single question, i still want ro ask.... you recommend sattu fr elderly and sick people. but how would they be able to break it down? because they cant do much exercise!!!!
Hi Luke, Thanks for giving the information about sattu. I have a question about sattu I.e. Can we take it in winter's? If No, what is the alternative for that?
Alternatively you can also prepare SATTU at home, all by yourself. It's pretty easy and will be great because it'll be pure. All you got to do is take chickpeas (with brown outer skin) and soak them in water for about 5 to 6 hours and then dry them under the sun for about 2 hours. Once under sun for 2 hours the chickpeas will still not be completely dry. Take these and roast them until you hear cracking sound. Once roasted powder them in a mixie jar. You can have this sattu powder either with salt or sugar. You can also search on RU-vid how to make sattu powder and also sattu drink Hope this helps
Part2: And for example a hundred grams of satu to will give you or about 26 grams of protein now we can't consume 100 grams at a time so we break that down into two scoops which is roughly 40 grams and we get about 10.5 grams of protein now while the skeptics out there would be immediately ok Oh 10.5 grams is not enough for me well even your 20 grams isn't enough for you if your body's not breaking it down the right way your 20 grams is useless if your gut is not functioning the right way and for most people your excess protein that you're taking is useless if you're not even breaking down muscle the right way and having the right amount of recovery because you see it's not just about proteins and amino acids it's how your muscles use the amino acids and that happens in your recovery phase when you sleep and that's what athletes do that's what bodybuilders do they eat sleep and train and that's why they can consume so much of protein because it gets utilized by their muscles but today most people pumping iron in the gym taking the success of protein and parting out at night and sleeping for four hours and that's why their body their bodies don't even look like what it should be with all the protein that they're taking and the amount of workouts that they're doing so again we have to use a little bit of common sense when it comes to these things so subtle 10.5 grams of protein for for like two scoops of satu is actually fantastic protein because this also comes along with 18 grams of insoluble fiber so when we're looking at a country like India which has chronic constipation and acidity and most people are deficient in fiber one or two scoops of satu in a day which is inexpensive you can buy bags and bags of satu for less than a hundred bucks you can pay a little more for organic and if it's organic great for us it may cost you a couple of rupees extra but satu contains insoluble fiber a high amount of fiber which is required for constipation cleaning our gut removing dried fecal matter from our colon so it's basically acting like a natural detoxifier and instead of you know taking all these laxatives which yeah makes you pass a stool but also passes out all of your good bacteria makes your bowels lose control of their own muscles in the long run which is why once you have abuse laxatives you really can't get off it for a lifetime and you think oh it's working I'm pushing out my stool but you're also pushing out a lot of trace minerals a lot of vitamins a lot of minerals that's how it's designed to do just flush you out the good and the bad so yep when it comes to constipation and cleaning your gut satu is extremely cooling for the gut and the stomach as well which is why you see these people I don't want to use the term labourers I'm calling them people they're normal people like you and me okay they consume this on hot summer days because it's cooling for the system now again the skeptical as the skeptics out there will be all China I'll get gas let's understand that yep you get gas when your body can't break your food the right way when you have a weak digestive system you get gas so you don't blame the food you blame your digestive system but unlike China which will basically cause a lot of gas when it's in the form of satu and in fact removes gas from the system so it's extremely gentle on your on your digestive system for people with diabetes satu has a very low glycemic index and why I like people who have diabetes or people who are pre-diabetic or people who are heavily diabetic to get on Sat 2 is because it also has a trace mineral called zinc zinc is required in the healing and reversal of your diabetes diabetes is just not about your sugar levels it's just not about your insulin it's about inflammation and your pancreas it's about right having the right amount of trace minerals in the human body you have a deficiency of zinc no amount of medication is gonna make your diabetes better now Sutter has a low GI level and it has zinc it's got iron it's got magnesium it's got potassium it's got copper it's got calcium as well and potassium so again this is a superfood when it comes to us but again a precaution all superfoods could be dangerous for people who have other issues so someone who has a kidney issue and has to be on a low potassium diet satu cannot be the food in your diet because Sutter has a lot of potassium so again don't blindly follow you have to adapt to according to your condition but if you don't have a kidney disease and your potassium levels or you have low potassium levels which is why in the case of high blood pressure cholesterol
