A Week On 10 A Day DAY 4

[@SimonMetin]

i get that you do what you want, but for entertainment purposes you really should branch out a bit. there are so many weird fruits/veg you could try for this kind of video. it's the same with most of your week-ons...a bit of variety would be great, otherwise it is all just samey.

[@JillyC5]

What I didn't realise is that when you increase your fibre you also have to massively increase your water as the fibre soaks it up. Otherwise you end up more bunged up than before you started!

[@lakshjoshi5915]

Regarde less of how much juice you have, it can only count as one of your five a day!

[@Chris-hm8py]

Surely Cadbury fruit & nut, fruit pies, sultana pancakes, blueberry muffins, strawberry ice cream, jam doughnuts, fruit muller corners, banana or strawberry milkshakes, counts as 1 of your 10 a day! 🙌

[@JamiJR]

You should be proud of Viral. It's a REALLY GOOD book. Twists that I didn't see coming, villains you want to punch in the face, solid writing, and a desire to read more by you. Looking forward to when Netflix buys the movie rights then you and The Dom can get together to do a Lost In Adaptation of it. ;-)

[@hellsingmongrel]

making a big change to try and eat the plant-based foods you need in a day is admirable, and I know it can be hard (I've been trying to do this particular diet myself, permanently, for a couple of years now) but the thing you have to keep in mind is that you're supposed to have more veg then fruit, and the juices don't really do it. Fruit is mostly sugars, and while they're "healthy" type of sugars, compared to what we're used to eating, they can still throw you completely out of whack. Also, the good parts of the fruit and veg are the fibers and pulpy solid bits, so when you drink fruit juice without pulp, you're literally just drinking pure sugars. Still, it's a start, and these things are best done slowly, so you make small changes over time before finally getting where you need to be.

[@kassemir]

if you don't like the posh M&S voice, then there's seriously something wrong with you. It's very funny! :D

[@cflux1030]

Day 4: Mike has turned into an apple.

[@DiscoveringTheLight]

Multiple juice portions is starting to annoy me

[@markiangooley]

It’s mildly enriched sugar water. The fiber (fibre, to a Brit) is an important part of fruit, and it doesn’t do to omit it. Of course, I eat hardly any fruit, because I’m a type 1 diabetic and it spikes my blood sugar...

[@JamesHetfieldIsGod]

and still no one cares

[@susanobrien4380]

Me too! One type is on portion. Maybe he knows this but is secretly enjoying tormenting us?

[@sophiebee1679]

You're only meant to have like 40% fruit and juice isn't great because it's all of the sugar and none of the fibre, but really jappy to see this :) and not just because we enjoy seeing you suffer

[@ollieb9875]

I too, am jappy

[@Blarm]

Lol yes the fruit is bad... have you seen any of his other week ons haha

[@carmeenamack]

You should do a revised vegan week & not repeat any of the meals from the original vegan week by using ideas from what people left in the comments on those vids, it’ll be an interesting perspective...

[@hallwnby]

Veganism is getting better and better you can eat vegan very easily now so he should tbh

[@ameliafleetwood7342]

Love "the shower once every 3 week's" I would've made the same joke

[@jamiecullen9075]

Glad you're eating healthier and more fruit and veg and I hope you keep it up after the week on. I hope this also inspires others to pick what veg and fruit you like and eat more, even if people don't find this video entertaining look at it as motivation to eat better I think

[@hallwnby]

please say you feel basil dry food alongside taht

[@rolldeep23]

Proper lazy boring apples bananas and juices what's the point

[@JunKurosu]

This week is pretty boring so far

[@316CactusJack]

Yet you had to leave a snarky comment

[@JunKurosu]

@@316CactusJack what?

[@l4qu3]

Cactus Jack I think that's how opinions work.

[@Lilyyysanchez]

Cactus Jack it wasn't snarky , as viewers we are allowed to express ourselves, we are the ones who pay his bills

[@nesadcruz7840]

Not much variety in your diet. I doubt it’s healthy to just eat lots of the same fruit and veg. For fruit why not have some pears, Kiwi, dragon fruit , peach, watermelon, papaya, cantaloupe, etc? This would have been more interesting if you had varied your fruit and veg .

[@emmawilkins5755]

A week on roadkill?!!

[@dangerotterisrea]

This!!

[@jasonhicks7001]

You can't just keep eating the same things in the same day, 3 apples still only count as 1 of the 10 and the same with the juice etc even if you drank the whole carton it's still only one, I know them your rules but just saying

[@timetogetmylifeback]

Told him this on day 1 but as he's already filmed the entire week on in advance he can't change it now

[@spa-town1937]

I will never understand how he can claim to research the weeks in advance but not discover that you should only count juice once regardless of how many different juices, and that non-juiced fruit and veg only count once for each type. Or that you should eat more veg than fruit.

[@samyuk7265]

is it me or anyone realize that mike is spoiled by m&s or posh food after doing a week on m&s food.

[@dzamarelli]

It's probably just me but I feel packaged foods that say they count really don't. Eat real veg and fruit

[@vamplove6]

I had to laugh when you chugged the juice and almost choked.

[@dirtybearyogames511]

Not gonna lie, the last couple of week ons have been really lame and quite dull... Let's hope the next few are a lot more interesting.

[@LWolf12]

Aww, but I liked the posh voice.

[@Me-bt6ls]

We get our fruit and veg mainly through smoothies,, freeze your bananas and you can use them in your smoothies, turns very icecreamy,, add honey, spinach mango and any fruit juice mixed with water,, tasty xx

[@hallwnby]

3% is kale lol you could just have a bite of kale

[@magnusmoeller1985]

You have to up your water intake if you up your fiber intake, otherwise fiber has the opposite effect, like you experienced.

[@barbedwire_lace2160]

That 3% kale and color was just to help your feelings. 🤣

[@kyleryan22]

Do the week on B foods. This is almost that already. Beet Burgers on a bun with brie or bleu cheese,bananas and beef and bacon and a beer. If you do i'll buy 2 copies of viral, just saying.

[@fireflights1977]

Mike that's not actually fresh juice it's reconstituted juice from concentrate which means it's not fresh but I get it it's still juice fresh orange juice is something you make yourself

[@jadebass-qc6of]

This one tends to confuse pungs sometimes with double meanings Bless him though Love the content

[@chloedevereaux1801]

you've eaten in total probably 3-4 portions .........

[@Rainbowofthefallen]

Basil is so cute 🧡

[@dantedhunte]

Maybe try putting the bananas in the fridge, that could make them stay a little longer

[@Baker4life777]

Do a week on potatoes

[@lucymurphy3109]

Day 4 and, fruit aside, Basil is still the main attraction for me🐱nothing personal Mike!

[@danidoyle1117]

4 days in, still no bleddy soup. Also, it's not 'sharp' cheddar, it's Mature cheddar.

[@isismacdonald8114]

How have you gone your whole life not knowing that you can't repeat any of your 5 a days? 300ml of orange juice is not 2 of your 5/10 a day?? they teach that in primary school Edit: and a further juice doesn't count and neither does that second and third apple or the second burger hun

[@Whiskeyklone]

They didn't teach that in school when Mike was at school because 5-a-day is a very new (and arbitrary) concept. Began in the USA in the late 80s and wasn't introduced in the UK until 2002! Also, it depends which source of information you check to see if repeating 'doesn't count' or not. Seems to be something taught to children to stop them gorging their one favourite but it has no basis in fact. Apply a little thought and critical thinking, hun.

[@simonorourke4465]

It does count, the whole thing about not repeating the same thing is good advice but even the NHS will tell you that advice is all it is. It is better to vary your portions as best as you can due to the fact that different fruit and veg contain different things that are good for you. However repeating some portions will be fine as it really is silly to asume that one apple counts as one portion but two or three apples apples still only counts as one portion. The same goes for juice. It's always best to try and vary stuff but if you can't then just having the extra fruit or veg is vest.

[@fireflights1977]

And just a bit of info for you those type of juice drinks the one you just showed the m&s thing not going to help you go number two cuz it doesn't contain fiber because all the fiber was in the actual vegetable and fruit and it was removed because there's no pulp in there so that means there's no fiber or very little fiber if they've gotten fiber in there. so if you were looking to see if that would help you with your problem even though you went today which is good for you buddy but it'll give you your vegetables on the one a day thing which is good and that's pretty much all you're trying to show but yeah I try to stay away from juices because they really don't give you as much benefit as you would think

[@herbiehusker1889]

Orange Juice with pulp is the only way to go. The filtered stuff tastes like Sunny-D.

[@Karishin32]

I always go with the purple stuff.

[@ollieb9875]

Mike! Have you heard of Grace and Sons? They're a friend of the family, my uncle but not really is Gilbert. In Tring! 😁

[@Soultsukino]

A favorite for both the video but also for the friendly meow from Big Daddy Basil

[@emma-ok9wu]

the fact im on day 4 and you're still *just* eating fruit for breakfast, fruit on your porridge, fruit with other cereal (bananas on toast is also pretty good)... then you wouldnt be so bloody hungry

[@tortureforbeauty]

I always think your Harry Potter cushion is Tina from Bob's Burgers lol :P

[@VirginiaBouchier8257]

Fibre will bung you up if you don’t drink plenty

[@jlrrr6]

4 days has definatly made you look healthier in the face! no offense! just looks like you have more colour there now!

[@milliegarrett8459]

Do a week on vegan again, but with only food grown in the UK. Bonus points if you don't do it in the summer or autumn.

[@jamesfry8983]

I think he might die if he did that

[@Tommo1983ful]

Yes yes do the voice please, I actually saw you on the telly now the other day.

[@theresamcdonald2144]

good grief... one small apple = one fruit, one large banana = 3 fruits, 1/2 cup of cooked veggies = one veggie, 1 cup of raw veggie = one veggie ... i think you are eating 20 or more portions of fruits & veggies per day lolllllll

[@commie3000]

Mike, I know it's a meme to say 'you're doing it wrong' in the comments but you genuinely have done this completely wrong. You can't eat the same fruit or vegetable and count it as two portions. You should have used an app like Cronometer to see if you was hitting all your vitamins & minerals. Also, eating that amount of fruit and drinking so much juice will mean your sugar intake will be morbid. This is how Steve Jobs died.

[@susanobrien4380]

Love to Basil! :)

[@souljacker4570]

Okay but fruit and vegetables most people complain and say they can’t have the 5 a day or 10 a day in this case because of the cost per person per day so a good point to put in for this would be to talk about the cost of the week for just you over the course of the week

[@lindacahillcc]

How about a week on world war 2 rations?

[@emmal7510]

If you pop bananas in the fridge, they stop ripening. The skins will turn brown, but the insides do stop ripening. They'll go off eventually, but if you prefer them on the yellow end, this'll give you more time.

[@dzamarelli]

The insides become too sugary and gross

[@kello3942]

Mike some people just have no sense of humour!! Or just trolling or both .. 😐😄 Aussie Kelly

[@iadam1993]

Do a keto diet week!

[@zenobenji1095]

Hi

[@Shelleyweaver84]

I'm pleased you did a vegi day x

[@Mod-rw9cw]

Do a week on cat food

[@lolfunacount]

I am curious if he has eaten more than 50 grams of fructose a day (that seems to be the limit of frcutose, before it gets bad, based on some scientists)

[@kimbyrne7765]

Do the voice lol

[@JonathanRodd]

This vid is nice... JUST NOT AS NICE! D:

[@BrentLonkey]

looks like you still haven't watched that new episode of best of the worst that youtube keeps reminding you of.

[@timetogetmylifeback]

Do a week on raw vegan

[@Fairyslash]

Is he tryna be dark like Basil in that intro? /s

[@capness1228]

Pineapple can kill a world of sins when it comes to chucking stuff in juice.

[@paynebabes123]

Eat more insoluble fibre rather than soluble if you cant dump xD

[@DoodlesMcpooh]

Adding more bulk push to something through a small hole will only make it worse. In fact, the whole fibre helps with constipation has been disproven. You actually want to lower or cut of fibre entirely if you're constipated.

[@paynebabes123]

Soluble fibre bulks. Insoluble fibre makes your dumps like straw puff.

[@propanawty9091]

I've seen u exposing urself over the bridge

[@JunKurosu]

Do a week on no sex electricity internet ready meals or society

[@shannonfriet6291]

Basil stop climbing on people you bad kitty!!!!!! Crazy feline!!!!

[@jamesfry8983]

that book looks wank, ah I think I will leave after that very bad joke

[@bea6811]

Lamb and cheese yuck.

[@KellieValentine]

You seem to have nothing but contempt for your viewers 😂

[@PriyaPans]

It's dry British humour. We have a joke and a laugh with friends. We have banter. We jokingly insult friends. It's amusing. There's still a difference to when you're actually mean to someone.

[@animalcrazykid1284]

Sort of early

[@lucyt3385]

This week on has been so boring, sorry

[@IronDuke1815]

65th like! 568th view! :)

[@316CactusJack]

keto sucks

[@kiraworthington]

Eat what you like.
