What Does a Neurologist Eat for Breakfast? 

what does a neurologist eat ? answer something stupid since he has no dietary training like most doctors in all fields.

0:35 in Max takes off his shoes before entering the house. Way to go Max! I loved seeing that lol. No really. Love the content.

I would say that listening to your body is always a good advice, since each of us can be quite different. If I ever overdo on olive oil or any other “healthy fat” for that matter, I feel quite sick… So I take it sparingly and try to add some common sense to it 😄

Just discovered your channel. I have PTSD and am trying to cure it through diet and lifestyle. I'm going to binge watch your videos now.

Thanks guys, I have pain in my bones in my foot, sounds like high uric acid, so I lowered my uric rich food intake, and its gone in a week. Truly diet plays a great role for our health. We become what we consume. Unfortunately many healthy foods are not readily available.

Make sure you get your greens fresh, organic from local farmer’s markets if you can! Also pasture raised organic eggs are much more nutritious. Hopefully your local Costco sells them via Kirkland signature. More cost effective.

Huge fan of both eggs and olive oil on all things. Drizzle on fish, vegetables/salads and add to in vegetable soups, after the soup is ready. Also, a good quality bread dipped in extra virgin olive oil at the table as a starter. Yes, we need to sit down for our meals.

I love eggs. I grew up eating them. However I have been watching the videos by Dr. Gregor and he has repeatedly shown studies that indicated people who ate eggs had higher rates of cancer. It is difficult to know nowadays what a person should eat. I remember when I grew up we were poor and we cooked with lard and olio margarine. At the time people said the lard was awful for us and olio was better. Now they tell us the lard is better and the margarine is awful. My brother had olive oil every day. He died at 64.

This how I ended up with insulin resistance since a kid, not overweight but still had it, got sick in thirties…geez wish my mom had this info

Totally agree, my kids eat full eggs, healthy fats and either steamed broccoli or berries for breakfast every day! I fast til 2,which is new for me, but def seeing the benefits 👌

I got fat and sick eating olive oil. Butter is better. It depends on your ancestry and genetics. My ancestors with longevity never ate olive oil.

Most Mediterranean don't have breskfast. They have milky coffee or chocolate and a buttery Crossens... i had porrage with Mike no surar maybe salt. And a piece of fruit. Nothi g till dinner. Msybe egg sbo at midmorning. Small snd drink if eater r milk dinner at 1pm and then te at 6/7 ebenung anither protein enrij meal. Then bed from 8 and later depending on age.. later as i got older breakfast was only an apple till.. you onlt need breakfat if you up fron 5/6 am znd have milked s geard of cows mucked out and washed the yeard. About 2)3 hours of hard work. Then had breakfast and nothing to eat till s full dinner at end of day..... maybe but if vegetable. Not 3 meals a day. .

Cook the eggs on lower heat for longer, browning (burning) them for that long denatures the proteins so they're not edible/useful by the body. Interesting the Neurologist didn't practice that... cooking eggs: increase bioavailability of protein overcooking eggs: (e.g. brown) decreases bioavailability of the protein.

Sir that is a non stick Pan. If I see anyone talking about health and foods and cooks in something covered in Teflon - its a hard no.

GREAT info!!!! I have started the fasting until noon and it's great. I arise at 6am to work at my computer at 8am. No need for food on my stomach until noon. So glad the info is getting out no need for a farmers breakfast in 2016 unless you are one. Thanks Max.. Keep the info coming.

These doctors be confusing each other. Dr. Esselstyne and Dr Barnard would scream "No oils!" (And probably pass out just watching so much olive oil added to a meal). Now here is this neurologist drizzling copious amounts of olive oil over his breakfast.

What the heck no bacon? Screw this, I'll stay stupid and eat bacon for breakfast. Duh.

Wow my doctor said if I eat egg yolks I am setting myself up for high cholesterol and I can get a stroke or heart attack!

Yeah, I will NOT be eating an "egg white omelette," anytime soon. It's the most ridiculous, ill-informed, ever pervasive food fad that has come about in the last decade or so. An egg is a whole food. Don't mess with mother nature.

But wouldn't it be better to just eat the olive intact instead of the oil? Just like with fresh orange juice, which is also too much sugar, it is better to eat the whole orange. Funny that you then promote one as healthy and the other as less healthy. Olive oil is also an operation, you get the oil from the fruit!

Glad to see more of us are focusing on "FOOD 1st" !!

But......olive oil yesterday is not olive oil today. Olive oil today is more likely some type of processed oil.......

Use butter, ghee, lard for cooking and frying. Seed oils like canola, safflower or any of these seed oils are heavily processed and treated with chemicals to keep them stable. I suspect they lower HDL cholesterol because when I switched my HDL doubled. Also cutting down my bread, pasta, rice consumption might have lowered my triglycerides from over 200 to 89. HDL 60 Triglycerides 89. I did what is known as a keto reset for about three weeks. My craving for snacks or candy went away. Since the reset I have never felt better and my energy is constant without any ups or downs in blood sugar despite being hungry. I could be hungry but still happy and not panicked. Buy the eggs you can afford. By the broccoli you can afford because it's better than the alternative of frozen waffles or corn flakes. Insulin does not care if the food is organic or not. The pancreas has a job to do and doesn't discriminate. Glucagon or Insulin? The fuel decides what the pancreas secretes. Research Insulin resistance and you will learn more. It's not difficult to feed your body properly. Just rewire the brain washing from big agriculture, big pharmaceutical, big medical. Educate yourself on salt is important, fat is important and protein is important. High Carb diets are responsible for raising blood sugar, Glucose, insulin levels and if you continue you will get sick.

Medical Medium Anthony William is right about Eggs being a good fodder for Cancer....You can make OMELETS with Chick pea flour & Arrowroot starch, tastes even better than eggs.

I grew up in the 60's and 70's. We had grains and toast, perhaps eggs, for breakfast, and the easiest go-to for school was sandwiches, which were normally finished by 10 am. I would get home at 3pm, starving, and would eat a bowl of rice crispies with milk and sugar!! And then a big dinner at 6pm. Always hungry!

Absolutely horrible advice. Obviously he is no RDN.

Why on Earth would you put a video suggestion right in the middle of the best ending clips of the current video?

Great video!!!!!!!!!!!!! I eat very healthy, in fact, my doctors think im too thin. I do wished it helped with my medical issues but for some bizzare reason it doesn't. I'm a 26 almost 27 yr old college student. I love to hike. Swim. Volunteer. Up this far im lucky I've lived a wonderful life. I was born a preemie. 24 weeker, weighing a mere 1 pound 2 oz at birth & fight through some conditions (vision conditions.) life long eye complications. However, now as an adult, I suffer odd things. Joint pain. Fatigue. Swelling of my jaw. (diagnosed by a Rheumatologist with Degenerative Arthritis via CT scan of the TMJ Joint) I have diffuse body pains. Eye pains. Neuropathy. I've had blood tests to check for everything from B-12 to Iron, to proteins from the heart (I also have high blood pressure which is also odd.....), electrolytes (sodium was a tad bit lower than it should have been but not significantly low.) to every other blood test. All normal. Upon a brief neuro exam, my primary doctor noted that most of my exam was normal reflexes. No signs of weakness. Left arm and right leg reflexes were brisk. I set to see a neurologist in January. Never met him. So not sure what he'll do for me or what he will say. Hoping for good out come.

David Permutter is very good. Watched a couple of his PBS channel programs over the years.

He certainly knows about nutrition. The Med.Diet comes from Spain where we really use a lot of Extra Virgine Native Oluve oil along with vegetables fruits and non processed meals. Here and there a glas of Rioja and thats the secret!!! Thank you for this video

Sorry, I'll keep the bacon fat with the eggs. I'm very old fashioned and bacon has been around a lot longer than olive oil.

Eggs.....olive oil....??? I mean....I think eggs are nutritious but they run into the animal protein issue.....olive oil, is something "they" say is not good for you, yet "others" say it does have some health benefits.....but it is a processed food ....which of course...is suspect....anyway, this is alway interesting to watch channels that don't necessarily agree with my beliefs.....

Good olive oil hard to come by these days...like hold....found on Amazon, since the good oilve oil not found in my smaller town of 16,000..

I eat that everyday using avocado oil then I eat liquidized salads with kale, spinach, beats, blueberries, flax, chia seeds with a protein whether meat, fish or pea powder. Plus 1 lbs cooked vegetables if I can swing the prep.

I peel a carrot, chop celery, an apple, another fruit, maybe a banana, a bit of raw soaked oatmeal and then I pour Kefir over it and shove in my stick blender.

The ad at the end covers the dish! What a let down, I wanted to see how it turned out! Argh!

nothing against a huge steak for breakfast!

Love fasting! It’s changed my life😊

What kind of pan was that? It looked like non-stick Teflon but I can't imagine it would be!

Dr. Perlmutter is the real thing; a great physician. Breakfast should go the way carbs are going: away! Two meals a day following intermittent fasting is the healthy way to live, with 10-15% of good carbs (vegetables), 20-25% of good proteins (organic from both plant and animal sources), and 60-70% of good fats (plant- and animal-based). However, I choose to avoid mammals and birds for ethical reasons and only consume sardines (small fish are much less polluted) and organic eggs and cheese from the animal realm.

I have a liter of organic cold pressed olive oil a week

Toasted walnut bread with a little blue cheese or brie. Three soft boiled eggs scooped into a bowl with a little butter, cracked pepper, and sea salt. Sometimes a little sausage or bacon. A cup of coffee and 4 oz of orange juice. Sometimes tart cherry juice, sometimes hot sauce. Sometimes toasted corn tortillas.

On the rare occasion I have carbs as part of my breakfast (toast, muffins etc) I am ravenously hungry by mid-morning. Far more hungry than if I had skipped breakfast altogether. So it is eggs and bacon, or kippers, or nothing. No sugar crashes.

I love this video. I have to show my neighbor this video. One morning I happened to drop by to give her a mail which accidently ended up in my mailbox. She invited me in to join her and the children from breakfast. If I can vividly remembered, she made pancakes, eggs and had a box orange juice plus they were fruits. I told her I had breakfast already but I will have a cup of coffee, black no sugar, she were shocked and amazed at the same time about my coffee which I am about to drink. She said she drink coffee with lots of cream and 4 sugars. We are talking about a 12oz glass of coffee. Anyways she served the kids pancakes with OMG lots of syrup. I mean the pancakes were drowning in syrup. She said the kids will not eat it if it is not sweet enough. (She forgot the pancake mix have enough sugar already) then an 8oz glass of Orange juice which have approx. 18g of sugar, fruits... more sugar. She had some eggs on whole grain bread. Whole grain bread convert to sugar once digested plus the sweetened light coffee.

I was a very busy working mom. It took me two minutes to scramble eggs for my daughter. Parents are LAZY!!!!!

omelet is way overcooked lol.

A neurologist is just as educated about nutrition as a motor mechanic.They both have zero minutes and thats a fact to those who think otherwise

When i was younger, did intermittent fasting and didn't know it. Worked midnights 40+ hours a week and went full time to school Fall and Winter. The strict college let me slide on reporting for breakfast to get a few extra winks.

Yeah diet is important. I don't eat eggs they taste bad. They make me. Nauseous. I just try to eat a diet in protein. Like chicken nuggets or a healthy choices dinner with some canned fruit

Don't have time to cook eggs but they do have time to cook pancakes?

Cool video Max! Would be awesome if you had more collabs with Dr. Perlmutter. I can't wait for the documentary!! Keep it up

Best diet is not to eat anything.. weird

One liter of olive oil per person per week - wow

I don't eat breakfast. As a kid I was asleep for most of the day at school because of oatmeal!

High fat and protein; hormones, libido, strength....Hhhhmmm; all good things. I want to have "activities with my spouse"...not longings. YOU!!

If I eat eggs I’m sick all day. Everyone is different and I favor avocados and berries instead of eggs and onions.

...I'm not sure eggs should ever be brown... .. doesn't that make them taste " Sulfury "...?? I don't like brown omelets, brown scrambled eggs.. no brown eggs. I can get behind the Dandelion Greens, I know how great those are for ones health... but NO brown eggs !!

Love me an 🥚 egg

Lets talk about those greens! What were they dandelion greens? What about adding garlic to the sautee?

HA! I just had an omelete for lunch and now im watching this feeling good about myself lol but Im not a huge fan of olive oil :/

We really need to get back to basics!!! Why aren’t we teaching these life skills in our schools? Can you imagine the positive impact we could have not only on our children today but also future generations not to mention on our currently severely damaged and overloaded health care system!!!!

Why do people not have time for breakfast? Somehow people always have time for tv huh? If parents make it the night before and zap it in morning its still better than cereal.

Max, where's the recipe to that scrumptious looking omelette??

Stop promoting animal abuse by eggs and fish and beef are what humans should eat.

its better to eat olives than olive oil the body is not designed to handle concentrated oils in high amounts whole foods is key to optimal health.

The "dyed" hair looks foolish for a man of your "supposed" eminence!

Carbs can be part of a balanced healthy diet, just don’t over eat them and be active.

Is that a toxic non-stick pan?

Eggs...right. Skip delete and goodbye.

BALANCED VEGAN Diet is the Diet of our Creation...GENESIS 1:29-31....Buy Organic OJ also pure Org. Maple syrup.

microwaving 1,2, or 3 eggs, adding salmon takes less than 120 seconds. boom one of the best breakfasts known to mankind...

9am Buttered soft scrambled eggs with chopped up fried bacon bits and parsley.. gluten free toast and butter & unsweetened marmalade. Yum.. keeps me going until 3pm am Diabetic keeps my BS low.. and dinner at 5pm. i eat 2 meals a day at the same time each day.. keeps my sugars in check.

If I ate that much for breakfast, I’d be digesting that all morning. 🤢 The best diet in the world is a personalized one. We don’t all come from the same mold.

My father has a feast of olive oil every day that he’s not fasting

Our ancestors broke into tribes 10k years ago. Back then they were called the olive oil wars. There was resentment that some individuals were getting a liter per week while most scrimped by with 5ml at best. The 5ml group quickly became weak and spindly with deformed extremities and chronic cough. They took to eating soy beans and high fructose corn syrup which only made matters much worse. Their farts smelled like stale chimney dust, dust which had been composed with mouse droppings. They could no longer surf. Even though they obviously lived in southern California.

Got nothing out of this. We all know what is healthy.

0:35 How did the camera man get inside before Max?

I see a non stick pan fellas! Party foul.

I love dandelion greens

I'm skeptical that those who're time-starved or not a "morning person" would ditch quick and mindless carbs (e.g. toast, cereal, biscuits, muffins) to prepare and cook a meal for breakfast. Cleaning a fry pan is also more of a chore than putting a breadplate or bowl in the dishwasher. No breakfast seems more practical in that (presumably-typical) case, although then you're recommending they deprive themselves of their one morning comfort and boost.

check Dr. Perlmutter now to see additional research on dropping uric acid and metabolic syndrome

I love way of eating, but since I got

I have kippers for breakfast. Preferably in custard. Seriously, though, thanks for posting this. You get a thumbs up from me, and I am already subscribed.

Add some beets leaves too

a liter of quality olive oil costs like 25$

I do 630am to 230pm eating. And I drink about 1oz of evoo per day. I like the evoo that has a bit of sediment. More polyphenols that way

I wish I found this years ago, oh well hopefully 24 isn't too old to start taking care of myself.

hey David I learrned from you, but I don't have that beautiful kitchen, even so they taste great I mean the omellets the bone broth soup I got it from Mercola .And from Dr Jason Fung and Rosedale and Seiyfried well they don't talk to much about eating but I pick up some tips from them also.

Best breakfast for kids? Eggs? What more?

2 hole eggs in 2 pancakes is a way.

DR Ben Bickman saying the same

The crust of the ommelet burned is carcigenic

The vegetables are toxic.

Hope that’s not a non stick pan heehee

Burnt eggs with oxidized cholesterol drowned in olive oil. Mmm. Sounds yummy.

Thank you, I saw the fresh dandelion greens at my market. I will try them the way you cooked them.

What are your thoughts on oxalates? Thanks

It’s confusing that so many "legitimate" medical celebrities give, what sounds like, opposite end of spectrum type of advice about nutrition concerning brain and heart health. On one hand you got figures such as Dr. Cardwell Esselstyn and company, stating that the use of oils and animal products are the leading cause of endothelial dysfunction which is directly correlated to Coronary Artery Disease and Microvascular Dementia; and on the other hand you have this video claiming what sounds like the opposite.

Nice video doctor

Corn syrup is the first ingredient in baby formulas.
