The first food on the list should be the word of God. The Bible said in Proverbs 4:22 For they are life to those who find them, healing and health to all their flesh.

[@blesildacalambro9459]

That's true, even I when not feeling well just pray and for some reasons i get well without taking medicines. At 68 no maintenance, i just listen to my body, it sends distress call when you eat something that it doesn't like. Make a journal of what foods you eat in a day and how you feel waking up, if you feel pain avoid those foods.

all i know is my Grandma and Great Grandma lived into late their late 90’s. this was there menu…. boiled water kept in a glass pitcher in fridge, broiled chicken and beef patties. with salt n pepper, (they didn’t use buns) steamed broccoli, carrots, potatoes, basic shredded lettuce salad with carrots and tomatoes the salad using mayo and ketchup for dressing, skim milk, breakfast was shredded wheat the big squares with cut up banana, or fried egg on top of buttered toast, cut up cantaloupe, grapefruit and oranges and every night a shot of wine or sherry before bed, and always said their prayers upon waking and then again before they went to bed. God had everything to do with their decision’s including food and habits. my husbands folks are now in their 90’s and follow a similar but different menu.

Caffeine is not good for us, it depletes electrolytes, vitamins and minerals and simply blocks the neurotransmitters of fatigue so it’s a false feeling of energy and increases adrenaline etc. Hence why it can deplete our nutrients instead of giving true energy with nutrients. Yes green tea and coffee have antioxidants because they are plants but just get your antioxidants from non caffeinated sources.

I wish I could have done this for my mother. Do you know anything about SIBO? I think she had this and her friend who died a couple of years before her. Mom died of failure to thrive, could only eat a little bit, nausea, no appetite, diarrhea . She was 89 pounds or less. She survived Covid only to get RSV a few weeks later. If I had lived near her and made yogurt for her, which she loved, she might still be with us. Thanks, I will spread the word about home-made yogurt! Q: Do you advise a plant-based diet? I had to begin including grass-fed beef. I disagree with some of what Dr. Li states.

Don’t you still get teeth cleanings though and check ups to make sure your gums are healthy (since you can’t tell on your own)? And because plaque does eventually turn into tartar? I was one who could go years in between cleanings. I got a SoniCare, flossed daily and thought I could go even longer… turns out I went just in time, because unbeknownst to me, I was developing gum pockets! I started using grapefruit seed extract with a Pik Pocket (tip) WaterPik for 5 minutes daily, and they started reversing. Anyway, testing and checkups can be good, but yeah, for _treatments,_ do your own research for sure!! My hygienist sure isn’t where I learned about using GSE with a WaterPik!!

I learned SO much about eating for health in this hour-long podcast. Eat one pear daily to get 6 grams of dietary fiber every day. True health isn't visible in the mirror or in the number on the scale. I appreciate the science he shared very much and also appreciate Dr. Li's ability to advocate moderation amid all the extreme diets touted now. Doug, you asked some great questions as well. I'm a 71-year young female, and I'm always interested in how to be more healthy and live longer. You have a new follower!

[@TheresaGraf]

You're eating sugar every time you eat a pear. If you want to stay healthy fruits should be LOW on your list. Berries are the best, but all fruit should be eaten IN season and it will cause weight gain! Fruit signals the body to put on fat for the winter.

[@geraldineoha9433]

[@TheresaGraf]

To Dr. Li's intro summary I would add 'attending to portion size' to carbo foods. We grow up eating double to quintuple portions of carbo - and one serving a meal is all we need in most cases. One slice of bread, 1/4 cup of pasta or rice is a serving. Double or triple the veg - and lower the carbo portion unless your life is very physically active.

On Saturday I eat 2 eggs scrambled w/cheese, 2 eggs over medium, 6 strips of bacon and a sausage patty. Tuesday, Thursday, and Sunday if I get hungry I drink a cup of coffee with 2 spoons of butter and 2 spoons of mct oil and about six ounces of heavy cream.

[@aliciastanley5582]

Don’t go hog wild on fruit though. You need to pay attention to smaller or moderate amounts relevant to your particular metabolism and needs. I am a diabetic on keto with IF and it serves me very well. But I feel best when I eat A LITTLE fruit. I eat 1/4 of large grapefruit with stevia on it every day after the 2nd meal of my 2 meals a day. If I ate it at breakfast it would tend to make my blood sugar go up too much and affect my blood sugars all day to be somewhat higher than otherwise. So I never eat fruit at breakfast. I eat it as my dessert after my only other meal of the day ( only 2 meals a day, rarely ever a snack). When I eat it after the meal which is protein & low carb vegetables then the sugar rise from it small. When I eat berries in my goat yogurt I can only tolerate 4 cherries at a time, 5-6 blueberries at a time and two strawberries. In fall I gather free unsprayed crabapples mid July thru early August before they seeeten and the same with wild pears. I gather red September apples unsprayed from the public venue and I eat the high polyphenol skins with a potato peeler and and eat those in my salad and give my friend the peeled apples to make apple sauce with ‘but the apple itself has too much sugar for me. Check your glucose levels when you eat fruit though to know what’s happening to your blood sugar. I figure I can tolerate 1/2 of a kiwi a day. I’m 70.

i saw Dr. Li with Dr.Mark Hyman a couple of weeks ago and bought his new book. I love his delivery in both writing and on this podcast. He is so definite about his beliefs and what food does in the body, but he leans heavily on people making their own judicious choices, given the scientific facts to elicit a healthy outcome. I live in Berlin where great organic food is on the corner, and there's nothing in his books that is inaccessible here. I'm 78. and was diagnosed with diabetes six years ago. I'm fortunate enough to have a doctor who believes that I am in tune with my own body, and knows I want to reduce the amount of metformin I take. My Alc is now 5.7, a drop from 6.1 in the last six months, but I've also lost 14 pounds in that time. I appreciate Dr. Li's trust in patients to lose weight, have a healthy metabolism and blood sugar and gut without drugs. He makes it feel so possible with a the most excellent reason to do so--overall good health through healthy food.

[@user-un7ve8nk4z]

Love, Dr. Li, he speaks about a way to eat for health and nutrition the way most people should believe all things in moderation if you deprive yourself you can’t stick to it. One extra note don’t let yourself go hungry eat from the perimeter of the grocery store anything you wish before you get too hungry so that you don’t over eat

I did plant based and felt horrible physically. Joint pain - stomach pain and bloating. I’ve been a carnivore for 2 months now and haven’t felt this good in years. I can exercise more. Without pain! I have abs. Mental acuity. Also- my gut biome has changed. No more bloating. And I can eat/drink dairy where I used to be fairly intolerant

[@happinessispresent]

Dairy causes inflammation which turns into immune dysfunction and cancer eventually

[@kimjones2056]

@@happinessispresentwrong , farmers lived much longer than we do now. Most of them drank milk everyday. My uncle was 95 when he died

[@happinessispresent]

@@kimjones2056 he was an exception to the rule, generally dairy products contain casin that causes inflammation and cancer if you drink milk every day like your uncle

[@purevision2013]

Overtime, it won’t. Just being plant based isn’t helpful. What you eat is what matters. You have to have balanced when plant based. It requires research & strategy. Dairy is harmful! It might have been alright in the past. And there are exceptions to the rule but they are doing too much to it in processing & to the animals to be good for us to drink every day. There are so many plant based foods that can give your body what milk does & more. Increase your research.

[@purevision2013]

The doctor is right, yall better listen. Too much protein destroys organs. I’m on dialysis as result. No one ever said that even when I was spilling protein through my urine before dialysis. And they still advise me to eat even more protein, crazy! I changed to a plant based & I am seeing significant changes!

Hippocrates, the father of medicine said, ‘Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food’. Preventing diseases is smarter than trying to control it after food has destroyed overall health. Preemptive measures to stave off illnesses before they arise.

you are completely correct!!! I just feel better eating heaps of vegetables and fruit . I have stopped processed food and just have a plant based diet with fish as well . I snack on nuts and fruit but I hate green tea !!!! love watching you and thanks !! Love and Peace from Croatia

[@pch5938]

Ok, you asked for my opinion so I'll give it to you. In America we need to rename "Health" insurance to specifically "Medical " insurance. Hospitals and most doctors do not provide healthcare, but provide medical care. Healthcare is what you do at the grocery store, on the heart trail and sleeping upon nightfall. A lot of people have the misconception that the health insurance card they carry in their wallet is just that, insurance for them to keep living unhealthy. They only find out to late the hospital when they come to see me. 😢. Medical care and Health care are two different things.
