Nahh because you lose vital proteins you need for athlete. It’s good getting veggies and meats in your diet

You have gotten me to believe in making my own future. You have made me come back from a huge depression and injury. Man, I have so much respect for you right now. Thanks

[@evaincefone9051]

Thank you for taking the time to do all this research and providing this free information, taking the time out as an athlete to properly learn this and actively listen is what’s going to help us a little more

[@WaifuKaiju6910]

Watching the full video is actually worth it. I realized how every part of the video has its importance. This is some really good advice for athletes and you’re doing a great job matt.

[@georgianamarin7655]

Very on point. Awesome video!👍👍👍👍👍

[@everythingstarwars9062]

Was just sat here thinking I have watched every video ‘I can I need a new video from Matt’ and 10 mins later this happened 😂😂😂😂👍🏻🙏🏻

[@timmochylo9814]

Great Video Matt. You really showed that you know your information in this video.

[@jswizzle233]

Very informative, some of these myths are very false and good to debunk. I'm with you on the science!

[@dreamleaguepro1326]

Hi Matt, You have helped me a lot over the last few years and I agree with most things you say however processed red meat and eggs are high in cholesterol and carcinogens which have been proven to cause things like cancer and heart disease. Nonetheless Thank you for your videos. Edit: i watched everything you had to say after just seeing your comment and it seemed pretty fair what u had to say about but I think it’s best to avoid it

[@tatemotivation2415]

Do the same with gym myths or soccer myths

[@peaksoccertraining6412]

Love how simple and understandable you made this. A lot of people try to over complicate things to often. Loved the video👍

[@bethegreatest4976]

Loved the amount of work you put into the info you give us!!! Truly help us as footballers!! 🔥

[@malikmoyana2790]

bro you have inspired me to take my soccer way more seriouslly

[@Tarikconteh]

I can single handedly say I believe most of these whilst trying to lose weight on my journey on my channel. Biggest being carbs are bad for you. Thanks for your input on this and I’m looking to these vids from the new Nutritionist Matt haha! 💪🏾

[@joosungkim9548]

Love to see both of my guys Matt and Chris Heria in one video

[@youtubemakerochild4087]

Joosung Kim ahh I’m pretty sure he’s bagging him out lol

[@hubert4088]

Lmao he literally debunked a point, which Chris Heria makes

[@CMe48282]

Yes Chris Heria made a video where he said you can spot reduce belly fat. He got a lot of flak for it and took the video down. His workouts though are great for your core.

[@michellefrench2124]

Please post more of your daily stretch and workout routines! Thanks!

[@nathanaelcardinaux802]

Amazing stuff Matt, as an ongoing sports scientist and footballer I love those videos. Cheers from Switzerland

[@eekinlee888]

[@kayess6527]

Some interesting topics in there man, I' m quite fond of looking into nutrition as well and how it impacts my sporting performance. I am always experimenting with my diet in a positive way to find one which is optimal for me!

[@kaleb9971]

Not embarrassed to say that Game Changers indeed changed it for me lol, and I am not planning on going back; however it is whatever best suits you & helps your performance. I find a vegan/majority plant-based diet best suitable for my feelings, performance, and health for me as a footballer. 🤷‍♂️

[@semharbeyene7927]

Thanks for sharing this excellent presentation on nutrition.

Love it my man 💪🏼 Great viddd

[@ronnaldsswashington5324]

Thank you for the information, you are the best mate

[@Nostrada-mus]

I've spent the past 5 years extensively researching and studying the subject. I also experimented on myselef with pre-post blood work. I came to the conclusion that Weston A Price's recommendations is the best approach to optimize the gut microbiome. Mostly animal based products and fermented vegetables. Légumes and nuts must be de-activated from anti-nutrients (soaking, pressure cooking) and when it comes to carbs, some are better than others ( sweet potatoes vs potatoes) low fodmap. By focusing on nutrient dense foods and anti-nutrients, my CRP (inflammation) dropped drastically, no more bloating or digestive stress and a noticeable increase in energy levels. Unprocessed, organic meat doesn't cause cancer. If you're scared of Mtor, you can balance it with gelatin (bone broth). Dr Paul Saladino spoke about it quite intensively. Thanks for sharing this video!

[@jonytm999]

Great Video man! I personally highly recommend you do your own research aswell, you dont need to read a ton of studies or anything. Find youtubers you can trust, that have studied these fields and listen to every word theyre saying!

[@oc7_training]

How often do you eat egg? How many eggs per day? How often do you eat it with the yolks or without? Answers please!!!!!

[@AkshayPallikkara]

Moderation is key . And if you cut carbs in your diet .get ready for a major energy drop throughout the day

[@katiekat2933]

You should do a video on metabolic damage and how that affects a caloric deficit.

[@101bigjack]

As a physicist (i.e. not an expert, but someone who understands and appreciates a scientific approach), and even as a vegan (plenty of people argue strongly one way or the other because it fits their narrative), I thought this was a great video!

[@Yano5151]

The main reason I don’t eat red meats, and soon to be poultry, is because of how terrible and disgusting the industrial farming industry, as well as the horrible effects the industrial farming industry has on climate change. Also because of diseases that can outbreak on those industrial farms, like swine flu and mad cow

[@Ampe96]

Soccer Fan well spoken man, also, we don’t need that things and they actually are bad for us. So we have no reason to keep harming others at all. For anyone who wants to deepen the argument I suggest you dominion on factory farming on cowspiracy on the effect on climate change. And the game changers for sport

[@zain2821]

Ampe ur just lost man animals were made to be ate

[@Ampe96]

zain a so since you’re an animal you are made to be ate?

[@skillprofession4313]

Hey matt, I do you think I should eat breakfast or skip it and fast because I don’t know whether it’s better to eat or not to eat while I’m on a caloric deficit. I think this could be a cool 2 minute Tuesday idea. Thanks for the great content, keep it up. Later man

[@asafiron-jobes4783]

What is the best and best value protein powder?

[@nataliapalacios5575]

Hey Matt, what would you do if you dont feel motivated to trian? I have been having this problem for a couple of days now.

[@Kev_ll]

This is extremely useful coming from a soccer player, me being a player as well.

[@hessinmwlad7504]

Believe me, you are a great person and a legend😁😁😁💪

[@brandongroom6859]

Matt have you seen the video by Jeff Nippard where he reference’s spot reduction, and reference’s a study that suggested doing resistance training followed by 30 minutes of light cardio increased fat loss in those areas of muscles that were worked? What do you think of that?

[@hybridramper-futurearmy1160]

I got a question about what you said how fat is used for energy. How do we know or how can we make sure that on every workout session or any activity we're burning the fat stored rather than the carbs or protein or fat we ate say for lunch or breakfast.

[@thanhan3315]

Carbs being bad for you is so wrong, carbs are the single most important micronutrient to fuel the body during excercise! Great video Matt!

Q:Do fruits need to be eaten during the day for proper digestion?

[@Ampe96]

Sheldon I suggest you nutritionfacts channel by dr. Greger. It’s a KZbin channel and a blog that does meta analysis about food. Very useful

[@creonas690]

Thx for sharing this. I've got a question for you: what is your opinion on a well-planned plant based diet, especially for athletes? What do you think on this approach?

[@danielnwadike6763]

I agree with most of what you said but I think a main problem with alot of food in America is the way the crops are cultivated. For example, the wheat used to make bread has been sprayed with pesticides in order to increase harvest size. This reduces the quality of the wheat because there are now harmful chemicals in it, e.g. arsenic which is a poison and has been found in trace amounts in the wheat used for bread. If we can go back to natural fertilizers and pesticides the quality of crops and animals we grow will improve drastically and people can then eat balanced diets without having to worry about health complications

[@bjornbogigunason1598]
