Can you imagine if our bodies used 90% energy to digest hahaha restaurants would have to supply beds

[@AbbeysKitchen]

[@KineticKitten]

I mean, the brain alone already uses up around 20% of our daily energy intake... but if she's adamant about that 90% percent then I'm willing to believe that she might be an exception to that rule ;)

[@phemyda94]

Also what most young women call "bloating" today is just normal stomach expansion from eating, i.e. not going to bed with the same flat stomach you woke up with. Thanks, Instagram, for another unrealistic expectation.

[@isaiah7640]

No

[@CherryJuli]

Maybe her body is using 80-90% of her energy for digesting food. That would explain the nonsense she’s explaining. Her brain isn’t getting enough energy.

[@AbbeysKitchen]

🤷🏼‍♀️

[@Aalexismarieee22]

Good one 😂😂

[@xoxoemilyxoxo3922]

I legit had the same thought! Pretty sure the brain uses the most energy in the body, not the digestive tract!

[@alisa.maks26]

so, according to her logic, if you ate a piece of bread, then chicken, then lettuce, then tomato, and then another piece of bread, you'd build a sandwich inside your stomach, like a ship in a bottle bahaha :D

As a girl in recovery from an eating disorder, I really appreciate your informative videos.

[@rhijulbec1]

Me too. I'm 63 and have been fighting anorexia/bulimia for over 50 years. TRIGGER WARNING~SEXUAL ABUSE~ First time I was 9 actually. I was molested and raped by my brother from age 9 to 11 after I told him about our parent's friend who was molesting me from age 6. It's hard isn't it? I was in my 30s before I could name my anorexia. Good luck Love. I wish you success in your winnings and no self hatred if you trip occasionally. Forgive yourself. I learned to and I've been better since.

Everytime she says bloated I wonder if she means full/satiated

[@AbbeysKitchen]

Kelly Barry ya seriously

[@luciekiss1618]

Yea your stomach is supposed to get bigger when you are full. They stretch for a reason.

[@drgnarm]

That makes sense. I personally don't like feeling full, so I only eat until I'm satisfied..sometimes this means eating only 1/2 a 6" sub and saving the rest for a few hours later.

[@CH-jj8wk]

Oh my goooooood, hadn't thought of that

[@MsShannon213]

Kelly Barry I agree... I think there is a HUGE difference between bloating and being full IMO. I suffer from very bad lactose intolerance so bloating to me is when I would consume dairy, I would bloat to look six months pregnant. When I eat a normal meal, my stomach expands but doesn’t retain a ton of water and become that huge

[@shannonjhn]

I’m so sick of people pretending they know everything about nutrition and the anatomy of the body. Like just say you’re on a diet. Don’t lie to your audience like the main people on KZbin or who watch this woman’s vids are probably impressionable teens or preteens. Like they need proper roll models like Abby and unnatural vegan. When your starting puberty you’re body needs proper nutrition. Not this fake don’t eat these foods together type stuff.

[@brooklynbaby4959]

It's so bad...I feel like there should be regulations around this. So many of these people do not have proper education and are just spreading misinformation.

[@evilo101]

a dietitians biggest pet peeve

[@nathalie3654]

YES Shannon I agree, because I am sick of it too-its everywhere, not just in the KZbin influencer world, but also I was shocked I met license registered dieticians that also have an agenda and pedal either as specific diet fits all or food combination in one-to-one meetings. Abbey is the Real Deal - she gives facts, common sense and really is there to serve everyone, giving us a variety of balanced diet. I think teaching pre-teens and teens, how to use their judgement, discern and follow their guts so to speak in these matters is important, there will always be misinformation out there.

[@girlwhoseeks]

Unnatural vegan feeds supplements to her babies

[@olive996]

I would hope so, @girlwhoseeks. Vegan diets need some supplements anyway. Vegan diets for little picky eaters probably need more. Please say you aren't one of these people who think supplements are somehow dangerous? There's not enough evidence to back up that claim, but there is evidence that most people, regardless of diet, are somewhat deficient in some key essential nutrients. I personally think everyone should supplement. It's difficult to get everything you need without overeating, conversion rates may be different, and much of the food you buy is artificially fortified anyway.

[@libbysjournal]

Ummm i’m incredibly confused didn’t everybody study the digestive system in high school

[@olive996]

Who really paid attention in health class? Let alone still remembers it years later. All I really recall was something about alcohol and ATP.

[@libbysjournal]

Chaos-Chan • I was homeschooled, so That’s different than the public schools do and public school systems of the states are different depending on your state county and city so you can learn different things at different times

[@libbysjournal]

Olive I did

[@olive996]

So did I. Biology was a real interest of mine as a kid. Wanted to be some sort of doctor at one point. But I don't remember most of it. And a lot of kids pay little attention to subjects that don't interest them. All most people remember of diet or nutrition is the food pyramid, nothing about digestion rates, antinutrients, or food combination. And most people with orthorexia believe that government guidelines are either wrong or intentionally lying to us. It's a pretty common conspiracy theory.

[@mlagv4045]

Girl, we learned about it in grade 5 and again in detail when I was nearing the end of high school in bio. But even grade 5 me knew her traffic jam thing was total BS.

[@emilydonner3950]

Hey Abbey, I'm currently enrolled in IIN and we are explicitly told NOT to recommend diets to our clients because we are not certified nutritionists. The fact that Kenzie is saying she's an expert and making diet recommendations is harmful to other health coaches out there who are there to support their clients in their journey to better health.

[@AbbeysKitchen]

Emily Calley thank you for sharing

[@justanothervagabond]

100% Emily! I'm also currently enrolled at IIN and thought the same exact thing when I saw that clip from Kenzie.

[@AvonneHeavenly]

Honestly I don’t feel comfortable 100% health coaching now because I am certified but everybody is sooo diff. So much bio individuality how can we expect to give the right advice without blood panels, food sensitivity tests and genetic testing on top of trial and error over time. These quick fix reset things just aren’t the way.

[@hannahdoherty5721]

I have never been one to feel self conscious, which is why I have always watched Gretchen, Maggie, and Emma because of their positivity. However, I recently unsubbed to Maggie and Emma because they made me feel self conscious for the first time in years. Ever since they had Kenzie come into their videos, they have turned into something they’re not and they are all trying to create s bad image for girls. If you’re looking for a great channel to watch, Gretchen geraghty has an amazing channel filled with positivity, radiance, and non-restrictive eating.

[@erinconvey5192]

I hope Gretchen doesn’t start to follow this considering her best friend is Maggie

[@ursuchazoey]

Im so glad someone said this. I feel like they think their way is the only way, or it is definitely the way it comes across. It makes "treat yoself", cellulite, stretch marks, not being a 0 lol, seem out of the bubble of what's pretty/okay/trendy like ok

I’ve watched Gretchen for over 5 years now & I love her!

[@ursuchazoey]

[@colbimaison]

Blaming them for you feeling self conscious isn’t their fault that’s something that’s your own personal problem! U don’t know them so to say they’re something they’re not is kinda strange. Because they eat certain foods that make them feel good and enjoy eating them a certain way, that does not mean at all that she’s creating a bad image for girls... that’s pretty silly to say. Everyone’s different. If you don’t like it simply don’t do it, no reason to hate on someone for what they eat.

[@Victoria-ls8hd]

Emma and Maggie MacDonald, Kenzie’s ~besties~, also make videos following her diet. Their videos really portray how hard food combining can rule your life. Their entire day is centered around these rules and working out. Very weird

[@jesspascale]

It's completely obsessed around eating. I used to watch each of Maggie's vlogs but her recent ones I just can't with her and Kenzie and the diet

[@zoeeeeee13]

true! just watched her latest vlogs where she went to Miami, and her WHOLE trip was focused on where to eat, what to eat, etc. like they didn’t even try different things (that they normally would whilst travelling) instead they only ate what they prepared and only went to the same two restaurants the whole trip...

[@melodreama]

Cause that’s what they’re into. Maggie even said that she was taking the summer to focus on her health. Also, assuming you know everything someone does in 24 hours after watching a 15 minute edited video is ludicrous. She also did sports illustrated, bikinis stuff, Kiths... They’re just doing what they’re into and there’s nothing wrong with it. The negativity people have to deal with just for trying to live their best lives is rediculous.

[@beespiers1925]

If you don’t like what Maggie and Emma are doing then don’t follow them. Also, there’s a whole lot that the girls do in a day that isn’t on camera. You can make a camera believe that all you do is eat healthy and workout quite easily. Don’t pretend like you know their entire lives because you don’t.

[@jesspascale]

@@melodreama I'm all in favor for them living their best lives and being health conscious, I've watched them for years. My concern is that Kenzie's food combining is not healthy, sustainable, or even backed by actual research and that they're following it bc it's trendy

[@VictoriaMorganawesometori]

I really don't want to diagnose a stranger online. But this obsession of hers with going to bed with a toned stomach. Really sounds like the signs of an eating disorder. It does also come with crazy restrictive diets. Almost like OCD for food. Would explain the food combining.

[@luandrapalmari7350]

No that's actually true lol

[@tiakb]

Research shows that drinking through a straw, chewing gum and drinking carbonated beverages can contribute to bloating since they increase air intake.

[@chelseabelcher4957]

it might make you bloated but making all these changes in life to avoid a bit of normal bloating is so dumb

[@heyitsvicv]

Personally for me, I have zero issues drinking from a straw and actually find that I’m able to drink more if it’s through a straw. I just don’t like how Maggie stopped using a straw and the next day basically Emma did...it kinda looks like Maggie told Emma to stop using one (since this was well before they even met Kenzie in person and Emma wasn’t even doing food combining)

[@AntaniaK]

She got a 2nd hydro flask said it was the best water bottle and people should get it. Than the next video or two. she said I no longer use A hydroflask because the straw makes you bloated. Than she started promoting a new water bottle.

I take a bcomplex and vitamin d3 supplement (the only supplements I take) and I think everyone should because most of us don’t get enough sun and unless I wanna drink unfiltered lake water I know I’m not getting enough b12 meat is artificially supplemented with b12 it doesn’t naturally occur in animal products (or at least not enough to meet you daily requirements) and b12 is poorly absorbed by the body so I like to take it safe and supplement it with a vitamin

Also depends if those girls just say « you have to eat more than 100g of protein per day, it’s soooo important ! » or « for women who are doing strength type sports, body building, powerlifting etc... it’s recommended to eat an average of 1.5 to 2g of protein per kilogram of bodyweight, depending of the intensity of the workouts and the objectives » And I often make a difference between those who say that doesn’t mean you need to eat meat 2 to 3 times a day, from those who don’t. Too many girls out here are just crazy about protein shakes all day long.

depending on your height and weight 100 grams really aren't that much? I am vegetarian and avoid most dairy products because i couldn't digest them if my life depended on it lmao but I still get about 100-110 grams of protein. 90 of these are from natural sources like beans, tofu, broccoli, nut butters, etc! The rest is one scoop of unflavoured and unsweetened protein powder a day BECAUSE I don't eat meat, fish or much dairy. Everyone gets about 100 grams of Protein when eating meat/fish so i don't see the problem. Yes there's way too much hype about the amount you need but 100 grams is a good amount for lifting heavy weights 6x/week.

These types of people give health coaches such a bad name. I am a certified health coach through the institute for integrative nutrition and we ARE NOT taught to prescribe any specific nutritional information or diet. While we are educated on a variety of nutritional information we are in no way told to push any specific form of eating (aside from eating in a way that is mindful, balanced and intuitive) In fact we are encouraged to act as a liaison between an individual’s healthcare team. For example if a person is diabetic and is placed on a diet by their physician or dietician we can work with them to develop habits to incorporate these new foods, navigate the grocery store in a new way or perhaps come up with a meal prepping schedule. We support and guide people through lifestyle changes and help them break through and build habits that are sustainable and realistic. Some people just like to blur the lines and make us all look crazy and irresponsible.

I was actually in worse shape after those 30 days, having no energy, losing a lot of weight, and spent most of the time in bed.
