Vegan or Atkins? Macrobiotic or Gluten Free? Every year there is a new diet trend claiming to be the best way to lose weight or get healthier. Who is right? Jaime talks to you about health issues that plagued her from a young age, the extreme diets she went through to help with her issues, and how it wasn’t until she stopped following diet trends and started listening to her body that her health improved. After years of dieting, she finally settles on what she calls The Self Sustainable Diet, which has helped her to become the healthiest she has been in her life.
The Self Sustainable Diet
1) A permanent diet
2) Improves overall health and immunity
3) Can mostly be grown or raised on a farm or homestead

I know this is a 3 year old video, but this was a very great story that you shared with us. I thank you. I grew up on a farm with no processed food and all we ate was what we could hunt, gather or grow. I moved away from home and began to eat processed foods. By age 25 I was morbidly obese. I ended up with IBS, fibromyalgia and was depressed and sick all the time. I would diet then falter so many times. Now I am back on the farm, my husband and I grow, gather and hunt as much as possible. I went off all meds and I feel amazing. I am back down to a healthy weight. No turning back now

@anam.aria. 4 года назад

Well done!!! This is exactly my plan, to move away from the city and start eating what I can produce. Hopefully the times will allow it....

@ginadillon2072 6 лет назад

@amandaskitchengarden1238 7 лет назад

Jaime I just love how honest and authentic you are, it is so refreshing to hear you talk. I never feel like you are embellishing or hiding to try to create some picture perfect story. Every time you talk about your life you surprise me. I love 'The Dirt' videos

I do these videos as a reference library for my kids. I refuse to be anything other than myself (for better or worse!) :0)

@reneegriffith2375 4 года назад

I made a big change last June and lost 64 pounds in the last year. I went gluten free, I gave up Nightshade veggies and no more acid reflux issues. I can't eat beans either. I also haven't eaten out in a year, not even McDonalds. I don't miss that food. I had a bad junk food habit and gave it all up. I feel a ton better and haven't been sick once since January 2019

@blessedisshegroup 6 лет назад

I know one thing you are an awesome mom. Most mothers say "I would do anything for my kids", but when it comes to healing them by eliminating unhealthy foods - they will NOT do it. Hard to understand. So kudos to you.

@caroldorsett8170 6 лет назад

Such good advice! I sold my farm four years ago because at 69 I thought I was to Old and unhealthy to continue, then a year and a half ago I started eating differently following a unprocessed low carb high healthy fat diet. Well today I am a healthy fit 72 year young female who weighs 62 pounds less, my blood pressure is normal with only 1/4 of the dose of medication which The only med I take now.. You are right food is medication. Loving your videos.

@onedazinn998 6 лет назад

Thanks for sharing that...it's inspiring! :)

@GeckoHiker 6 лет назад

Your story is inspiring. The unprocessed, low-carb, high healthy fat diet is like magic. I'm in my late 60's and have no medical issues like diabetes, high blood pressure, imbalanced lipids, or arthritis. My eye doctor routinely asks about these because they affect your eye health. I'm like, nope, nope, nope, nope, nope, non of that. He was amazed. I'd like to know about your healthy fats and where you learned about them. I only cook with unrefined coconut oil and then make sure my other fat intake is in a 50:50 ratio for Omega 3 and Omega 6 fats. By not have any fructose, and very low carbs otherwise, and no gluten, I understand that will keep your lipids in balance and make bad cholesterol numbers drop.

@sardar5150 5 лет назад

Our stories are so alike. My diet as a kid was sugar and processed foods. By the time I graduated high school I was in a size 22 pants. When I was 19 I went on a low fat diet thinking that was healthy, got down to 135 and felt sickly, I got hungry and gained all my weight back up to 275 lbs. In the last year I decided to cut out sugar, processed foods. Only eat when I am hungry. Eat good meats and vegetables. I grow a lot of my veggies in the summer. I am down to 193 lbs and feel the best mentally and physically. I turn 40 next May and determined to get to my goal weight of 149.

@kittimcconnell2633 5 лет назад

Good on you! How are you doing now? How is your garden?

@xingmenneigong 4 года назад

Thanks for telling your story. I was raw vegan for 5 years, 3 of those years I was extremely sick, lethargic, Candida, always cold, super sensitive, teeth problems, major b12 deficiency even though i ate supplements. Ended up adding in starchy carbs rice/quinoa/potatoes/beans and 120g/day of chicken/beef and 1 egg a day on top of my raw vegan meals. Then every few days I make a fresh homemade pizza that keeps me grounded and the bread energizes me. I've ended up similar, if i crave it I eat it, salt, cacao etc. People please don't listen to GURUS! They dont know! Gurus have found something that works for them. All you have to do is find out what works for you.

@Myfavorites877 2 года назад

Wow! I had no idea. I had looked at you and thought I wish I was as thin and healthy as she is. Never knowing of your struggle. I’m 62 years old and am morbidly obese. It makes doing everything harder. Thank you for sharing your struggle and finding what worked for you. ❤️

@thestraycat907 5 лет назад

Wow. This video changed my life. I am fairly large now. Had an average diet growing up but was very athletic, so it was okay. Now my weight has gotten so out of control and I feel like shit. It feels good knowing I am not alone and that it is reversible with no gimmick diet, just eating naturally. I have recently changed my diet to mostly whole foods and fresh veggies when possible (I live in Alaska). I have lost 10 pounds so far right away. Thank you! You are beautiful!!!

@gratituderanch9406 7 лет назад

Oh my goodness! This sounds like my story in soooooo many ways! I have always loved veggies, but I was raised on trash. Very tasty meals, but tons of processed, sugar loaded, crap. I had major health issues, and so I also tried "vegetarian", vegan, raw, paleo/primal, then whole 30 (which was very helpful as it was an elimination diet). I think we all know we should eat mostly vegetables and fruits- real food. But whether your body tolerates dairy, or gluten, eggs, etc. Every body is different. Glad you're doing so great. Cheers!

@lesliejacobs1439 6 лет назад

yes...great journey...something i learned lately..is home cooked dry beans..pinto, kidney, navy..gave me horrible gas..pain..but I did not feel that when eating beans that had been processed..pressure cooked..like in a mexican restaurant.they generally use canned beans..same for chili made by a resturant..then I finally started canning dry beans at home ( some people never learn it seems) for conveince (cause I do like chili) and realized that they did not give me gas.. NOW I JUST learned In some recent reading..the REASON. the pressure cooking destroyed the lectins..that for ME...HAD ALWAYS GIVEN ME PAIN AND GAS WITH BEANS..

@mybusylife2158 7 лет назад

Your channel is on a very small group of channels I subscribe to. Keep going, because most of RU-vid is trash content. Your content, i always watch. Homesteading is a dream of my wife and I as we now know more about our bodies and how it talks to us, telling us what we need to eat.

wow, i have a similar childhood, ate sooo much sugar processed foods until i was 22, then lost 2 teeth to decay and was in so much pain, i had no money for the hospital so i did some research, turns out: Nutrition = Good health / Good teeth.

@LifeGoesNorth 7 лет назад

We first started really thinking about food when our kids were toddlers and starting to eat a wide variety of foods. Changes in their behavior when they had certain foods was very apparent. I'll never forget how artificial food coloring changed them. One day my son had blue dye (as a toddler), and began banging his head on the floor after eating it. Both of my kids would get extremely emotional after ingesting FD&C dyes. We've pretty much banned it in our household ever since. We really try to limit processed foods, but haven't been doing as well the last 6 months due to post move, and parting with all my home canned food and just being so busy we've had to rely on some convienance foods, but we are ready to get back to our old ways. Thanks for sharing your journey with food. You're so down to earth-it's really refreshing.

@Guildbrookfarm 7 лет назад

+LifeGoesNorth Yes the dyes were a trigger for my girls, particularly red dye. My girls would scream after having something with that in their diet. Thanks for watching and commenting!

@annehartmann6572 7 лет назад

Thanks for your videos and sharing your stories with us. I nearly made the same experiences how important it is to better listen to your body about what to eat and what to avoid. Keep up your good work - I really like your channel!

@SurfviewTV 7 лет назад

Great video, For highly nutritional food (greens that you can grow in your yard), consider growing a bunch of "miracle trees" that can grow 15-feet in one year. That is the MORINGA PKM-1 Hybrid. That hybrid seed (available via E-bay) comes from India and will grow the 3 feet drumstick pods in one season - so that if you plant it by May 1st, you can harvest the leaves after 5 weeks and the pods before the frost/freeze comes in late November. It is a perennial and is a nitrogen-fixer and is drought tolerant. It handles over 300 diseases and when you eat it (or take the caps or put it in your smoothies), it creates a feeling of contentment. Hunger pangs disappear. If you grow too much, the goats and chickens will love it. You could replace a lot of your animal feed if you grew a ton of it. It loves full sun and it loves heat. Here in Phoenix, it handled 120 degrees F without any sign of wilting. If you prune it right, you could have harvestable hedges all around your well-lit property. It also stands up to wind really well (unlike corn - sorry about that). Also, for eliminating high stress and sleeplessness, consider growing Ashwagandha. Heals adrenal fatigue and reduces cortisol and promotes a full night sleep. To avoid gluten, consider substituting wheat flour with Chana (chickpea flour), which you can buy affordably in bulk from Indian grocery stores. I make a batch (usually 8) of banana raisin (or cranberry) waffles once a week and put them in one of those recycled Red Rope (licorice) containers and put that in the freezer. During the week, it's easy to reach in and break off sections and throw them into the toaster oven. That way, I not only avoid gluten, but I also avoid wheat and corn. It's based on the Wheat Belly Total Health suggested diet by Dr. Davidson. If you have a mill, you can buy dried chickpeas for $1/pound at the 99CentsOnly store and then grind them to make chickpea flour. I buy 4 pounds for $5.49 at Apnar's Indian Store in north Phoenix. Saves a lot of hassle and the product is great. It's amazing how many symptoms clear-up with wheat out of the diet. First one is skin - eczema disappears, pounds disappear. Metabolism improves. Pre-diabetes disappears. GI issues disappear. Unfortunately, I have to make my own pizzas, since even the Pizza Hut gluten-free pizza still has wheat. Keep up the great inspirational and heartfelt videos. You are making a difference.

@latonyaheaton92 7 лет назад

@Guildbrookfarm 7 лет назад

That is one I will never go back to. Definitely NOT something I can have, even in moderation. I am glad you are feeling better!

@BecomingVegan 7 лет назад

Finally! A sensible video on the subject of diet. I was expecting the usual "You must eat this way or you'll DIE!!!" rhetoric that is so prevalent on youtube. This is now my favorite video on the subject. My path to nutrition was very similar to yours. Grew up eating mainly processed foods, and very little fresh vegetables. Tried the vegetarian/vegan thing and it made me sick enough that I had to have surgery (soy and my lady bits do not agree!). Through elimination I have discovered that I can't eat grains and most legumes, peppers, raw onions, and most processed foods give me acid reflux. The closest diet trend to that is the ketogenic diet (low carb/high fat), so I tend to follow those groups for recipe ideas, but I don't stick to the hard and fast rules. It works well for me. Thank you for such a great video!

It has taken me so many years to overcome the idea of counting calories and instead focus on eating healthy. I am currently working on fixing so many chemical imbalances in my system with my Naturopath. I appreciate what you said on the episode about eating according to what our body needs. The hard part for me is learning what that is.

@Guildbrookfarm 7 лет назад

Your Naturopath will help you with that. Best of luck!

@rainskitchenandgarden 5 лет назад

Hi Jaime :) What a wonderful video. :) I was brought up on the grocery store diet and had so many gastro problems up to my mid-thirties because I was a city gal and continued that same way of eating. At one point, I was crawling on the floor in pain every day for hours and saw a gastroenterologist who told me I had "IBS" and that I just had to live with it. I decided to cure myself. I did a year long elimination diet and figured out what foods were making me ill. I gave up city life and am in transition towards homesteading and self-sufficiency. And, like you, I no longer have food restrictions (besides what I know makes me sick) and I eat much better. I'm 50 years old an look 30, I've never been more healthy. I've embraced my garden, home cooking and preserving. I'm vibrant and energetic. Really...great video and a wonderful message. I'm so glad you found what works for you!

@heidivernathorbjornsen475 5 лет назад

@Shellell 6 лет назад

This one really struck a cord for me. Growing up and spending my whole life in the city I became so detached from what food actually is and where it comes from, you don’t see things grow and don’t see how animals are raised and 90% of my diet was processed and came in bright packets, Iv battled weight and health issues my whole life and spent 20 years on various diets and eating plans. Earlier this year we decided to move out of the city to a house with a small bit of land to start to learn how to be a bit self reliant and raise some of our own food, and our health and diet was one of the major catalysts for that. I’m struggling to overcome my awful processed food and sugar addiction but hopefully in the coming year I can work on that more. Awesome vid, it was really motivational for me to keep striving to find a more natural way to eat and learn how to listen to my body, thanks for sharing.

@robertjackson4121 6 лет назад

shell salton so go to doctor for blood test and a1c test of blood sugar the past 3 months. Learn to read sugar labels clean out your cupboards of high sugar and salt products. Then change your grocery list create a new menu item once a week.

@Pinkenstein 6 лет назад

I totally agree! I got Sally Fallon's book, Nourishing Traditions, for Christmas, and I made what I found to be an easy transition to clean food. No artificial sweeteners, no processed white sugar, no weird "butter flavored spreadable food product," no carageenan, no additives or preservatives. Real butter, real sugar like honey and maple syrup, whole milk, homemade yogurt, bread, kombucha, salad dressing, no boxed stuff, just what I got out of the garden and clean food from the store. Acne, the bane of my existence since around age 10, was gone (including cystic body acne), my stamina increased, my chronic nerve pain decreased (when a 4 on the pain scale is what you call a fantastic day, even a 20% reduction seems miraculous and life-altering), my sleep was awesome, my depression and anxiety vanished, and even medication side effects seemed to reduce. And sure enough, when I start to slip into old habits, I feel it so fast. A crash that can last days. And you're right about the cravings, too. When I listen to my body and follow cravings with clean options, like clean chocolate or homemade frozen yogurt, I don't feel sluggish and like my eyelids are made of lead. Conventional ice cream brings it on fast, though, and it takes a few days back on the wagon to shake it, and fast food immediately kicks in that addiction-like craving. Just one paper-wrapped burrito and within hours I'm feeling pulled back to that drive through. It's weird how quickly those chemicals can effect the mind and body. I'm a highly skeptical person, and I didn't believe this kind of stuff was real until early this year, but now I have absolutely no doubts. The difference has been astonishing.

Your conversation was very insightful because I've struggled with weight growing up and we mostly ate processed foods. I've had to deal with cancer and all the things my treatments caused like arthritis and overall stresses. When I've had the energy to cook from scratch I feel better from the feeling of satisfaction to feeling full and then mentally the process of cooking is meditative. I'm working on re teaching myself to eat better by cooking from scratch so that I can be healthy going forward. Thanks for the conversation it really made me feel good like I know someone with similar struggles.

@cameronalexander359 7 лет назад

Regardless of the past, the person I see here is GORGEOUS in both body & soul! Its interesting Eastern Cultures see food as medicine. Outside of our diet, we also create other restrictive rules on ourselves. Some are of our own creation, some are the creation of others eg. society. When we start to question our personal rules, discarding those that do us harm, like getting rid of foods that make us feel bad... we start to feel better too!

@swamprat9245 2 года назад

Agreed with everything said. I am 5’7” and was 145 lbs out of high school. A couple decades later I ballooned to a high of 204 lbs. In Jan of this year, 2022, Rachel and I cut processed everything, and a mass reduction of sugar, started walking 3-5 times a week and started making like pizza sauce, bbq sauce, bread, etc from scratch. The changes are ridiculous, as of today Mid March 2022, I am at 165 lbs and am feeling like I am back in my 20s, still have 10 more to go. We live on 15 acres and will be growing 70%+ of what we eat this year. Most people get it backwards. You don’t drop weight to get healthy, but if you get healthy, weight takes care of it self. Oh yea, Rachel dropped from 152 and is approaching 115, she is 5’2”. All are lifestyle changes and we can’t stand anything to sweet, taste buds do change. Anyone can do this!!

@amandaskitchengarden1238 7 лет назад

+MrMyrta01 I must tell you about my father. At age 61 my father had his first heart attack, he was over weight and didn't exercise. His desk job and train ride to and from the city and no gyms (at that time in the UK) meant he was not very inclined to change his life. He retired at age 65, became very depressed, and had another heart attack at age 67. We all thought he wouldn't live much longer. After another heart attack in his 70's we thought for sure it was the end, but he stopped taking sugar in his tea, and made small changes, nothing drastic. He will be 94 this year and is still living in his own home, very independent, drives his own car, and even though his knees won't let him walk far he manages to do his own grocery shopping. It is not too late, he and all our family kept thinking each year was our last with him, but look how long he really had left, if he had know I am sure he wouldn't have been so depressed and would have made more changes sooner.

@kevz2474 6 лет назад

What an amazing video. I'm kind of in that process of noticing foods that make me feel bad. One thing I am learning is that certain dairies make me feel like poop. I don't eat junk food anymore, cut down on alcohol and I noticed my depression has gotten better. I was on two anti depressants now I'm on none.I have become more productive, I'm going to start growing some veggies when it gets warmer, I'm making my own spices and seasonings and looking to start canning and getting into hunting again so I can have fresh venison. nom nom

I just shared this with my daughter in-law and son the whole family is sick everytime they would eat and so is the baby. thank you for this video.

@Guildbrookfarm 7 лет назад

+Alfina Hopkins-Wasnuk I hope it helps. It may benefit them to look into a Naturopath to help them long term.

@AlfinaHopkinsWasnuk 7 лет назад

Guildbrook Farm | Simple Sustainable Living hi Jamie, what is a naturopathy diet? I don't know about this stuff, I just eat what ever I crave never thought about how food can help or hurt you.

@Guildbrookfarm 7 лет назад

+Alfina Hopkins-Wasnuk I was suggesting that your family may want to see a Naturopath doctor (ND). They would be able to help

Sometimes it’s so hard to trust our instincts and follow what we think is right for our selves and our families but when we do the benifits can be great

@susanpritchard7521 4 года назад

This is my favorite, most valuable, learning video I have watched of yours. What an inspiration!

@liabrown8501 3 года назад

I just subscribed about three weeks ago and I have learned so much from you already. You gave me the confidence I needed to can with an All American canner and I did my first batch of chicken and also beef yesterday ! I do have a question: what is your favorite "good dark chocolate"?

@aliasgirl9 3 года назад

My all American is ordered and in its way but because of shipping to Canada.... it’s gonna cost much more overall than the web price😬. Watching Jamie’s vids on canning def influenced me in that direction as well.

I think that what you are saying is so great. You pick and choose what you need. I just want to add that you have more self control when you are not addicted to sugar. People feel like they can't trust themselves and could never stick to any sort of diet. Once you ween yourself off sugar you can have so much more self control over what you eat! It's so great! I pretty much do what you do. I choose half vegetarian and half fish, chicken and cheese diet. I eat what I want and don't worry about if it hurts me because I only crave things that are good for me and not processed etc.

@Guildbrookfarm 7 лет назад

+Chelsie Rachal Correct. Cutting out sugar is a huge part of it. Overeating is generally from eating low-nutrient foods. The body isn't getting what it wants from that food and so you eat more (like the chocolate example).

@kellymcmurtrey7868 6 лет назад

Jaime at Guildbrook Farm I have watched your video several times and it resonates with me. About 6 months ago I began an elimation diet due to some GI issues mostly but other symptoms as well. I spoke to my NP about my GI issues who suggested dairy may be a probelm. But since I really can't do anything half way, I subscribed to the AIP (autoimmune protocol) diet - mainly due to a Hashimoto diagnosis. Bought the book and had my youngest son (20 and the only one of four still at home) and husband on board. Thank goodness because I don't think I could have dont it otherwise. WIthin 4 weeks all of the GI symptoms disappeared, my nose didn't run every time I ate, I didn't need Nexium daily and sometimes twice daily, and my "red skin" went away. Fastforward a few months, Gluten, dairy and egg intolerance.... it makes eating difficult especially out but I feel so much better. Thankful I have the support of a wonderful family. And have since lost about 27 pounds.

@kayla8744 6 лет назад

Great video! I too am ‘intuitive eating’ now after having gone through multiple diets then finally cutting out everything processed. Now I’m going two years strong without getting sick, never see a doctor, and my skin and mood are loving it! And for anyone reading this, the book “The Plant Paradox” covers almost exactly everything she talked about and helps walk you through an elimination process, no “diet” is pushed on you. Also educates you on all the disgusting and seemingly unethical CRAP that’s in our food. Which is how I found this channel originally - to raise chickens. Because what they’re fed and how they’re handled commercially is disgusting .....and I love eggs 😊 Thank you for all the great videos!

@lifelove_ 7 лет назад

I very much enjoy your videos!! I put on my headphones and clean the house or cook, just like now, while listening! Keep on with the videos 😊👍

@lisamarie2770 6 лет назад

Your such an inspiration. I completely agree with the foods we put into our bodies can make a difference that’s why I started watching utube and want to start canning. I can’t wait to start growing my own fruits and veggies as well. It’s a goal I will reach one day 😊👍🏻. An amazing story as well. Who would of guessed you went through so much. Thank you for sharing 😊

@jimk3601 7 лет назад

Thank you for a fabulous video I have the same feelings about food. Please keep the great videos coming. It's so important in today's food market for people to understand the importance of nutrition. It's so beneficial to live a simpler life in all ways especially food. It's hard work but wonderful all around for the mind, body and soul.

@christybowers7519 7 лет назад

Thank you, Jamie. I've really been enjoying your videos and am impressed with how much of yourself you put into them - effort, knowledge, time, etc. This video in particular speaks to me. I too have a history of overweight, acne, depression/anxiety. Also hormone imbalance, achy joints, the list goes on. I've only recently discovered how bad gluten is for me and am working on identifying which others foods work and don't work. In several ways, I feel like you and I are on similar paths in life, except you are a few years ahead of me in your journey (in experience, not in age 😉). Your videos are helping me move more confidently in a healthier, simpler, more self-reliant direction. I want to thank you for all that you're doing. Wish we lived closer and could chat over tea. Keep up the great work!

I love your videos and I watch every single one of them. We are urban homesteaders from the north of England, me, husband and our 2 young daughters. We'd love to own land but any land is extremely expensive in the UK so we just do the best we can with our small garden. Please keep up your good work!

@Dsany783 7 лет назад

Hey, Jaime, this video is the opposite of what I figured you were. Your slim body gets me the idea that you are that kind of people who can eat without being fat. I am so happy with you now. I tried to lose weight a few months ago, but it was like the yo-yo diet. I calculated my calories, did an early morning exercise, divided my food, I did it really right, but this was consuming me; a lot of time a lot of thinking, a lot of everything, that I just returned back to my old habits of eating a lot of sugars/carbs and gained my weight again :( . You didn't mention how did you lose your weight and become so slim? Was it the balanced diet and farming work that get you in the shape? Thanks a gain for a new wonderful video.

@Guildbrookfarm 7 лет назад

But I did mention it. That was the whole video ;0) I started eating healthy food and cut out all the garbage. When you eat food that is high in nutrition, your cravings stop so you don't binge eat/over eat.

@juleeperegrine9480 6 лет назад

This video was a lot of hope for me. Gluten and lots of meat make me feel ill. I was toying with the idea of Vegan but I've seen my step daughter do this process and she is very unhealthy. I've battled my weight all of my life and I'm struggling with arthritis now. I have a huge garden and can, as well. I think this refreshing video will, hopefully, give me the notion to listen to the needs of my body more. I hate pharma and I'm trying to get off my high blood pressure & A-fib meds through weight loss as well as manage my arthritis. I'm checking into Evening Primrose, etc for natural healers. In no way will I hold you to anything through my process; but your video is very refreshing. God Speed & Carry on!

@lindakurtz2653 6 лет назад

Thank you for this video-too many folks have bought the lie that they aren’t able to take charge of their eating! Find what works for you, of course that takes a lot of self analysis........

@mariafisher1693 7 лет назад

Thank you for doing this video! I have been gluten-free Vegan for 6 years now and have been craving meat and eggs for awhile now and I just needed some inspiration to take that step. I am just frustrated that I don't have the health I'm desiring dispite loads of fruits and vegetables.

@Guildbrookfarm 7 лет назад

Just take it slow and do it one item at a time (over a period of a couple days to a week) and see if you feel better or worse. You can always go back to being vegan. Good luck!

@micajahsmom 7 лет назад

i have been vegetarian on-and-off most of my adult life. i also love chicken - anyway you fix it. i eat chicken when i feel the craving and eat veggie the rest of the time. i listen to my body. eat what you want, dont follow a strict eating style if it doesnt work for you. take care of yourself and be happy.
