Just worked out. I'm now eating my salad with lime and rice vinegar. I also eat homemade seitan. I'm not afraid of potatoes. I also enjoy all kinds of beans. Enjoying my life at age 60

[@andreavanantwerp4160]

He's easy to understand. Love these types of Drs.

[@vi3472]

I always enjoy Dr. Li's lessons. Thanks you, Chef AJ and Dr. Li!

[@nidnay7506]

This was fantastic and so informative….and he presents things in a totally interesting and easy to understand way. Thoroughly enjoyed this interview!!

[@jamesigo6324]

16/8 can be anxiety forming for some. 12/12 skipping breakfast makes sense for those on the rush to help reduce that anxiety.

[@Lise-ss8qw]

Love Doc William Li ❤

[@kaycurrie9356]

Learned so much! This was GREAT🎉🎉🎉

[@CHEFAJ]

Glad it was helpful!

[@darjeeling9116]

Hi AJ ! I have 2 questions 😊 My husband who is not vegan because he said he cannot live without meat at all bought Dr William Li's book a while ago but hasn't read it! not yet! Dr Li said he follows a more mix Mediterranean/ Asian diet. As we know that types of diets include some animal products! Dr Li isn't vegan! it's a little confusing! what is your view on eating like dr Li? why did you interview him here? My other question is : My husband has visceral fat but because his numbers at his last medical check were ok he was told by the doctor that he is super healthy! What medical test do we have to require to assess that fat? 😊btw I love your show!

[@broddr]

You would need an abdominal MRI to accurately measure visceral fat. But, as Dr Li said near the beginning, there are home devices that can estimate how much visceral fat you have. They do this by sending a variety of radio frequencies through your body. Different tissues absorb different amounts of RF energy at different frequencies. These fat measuring scales then report visceral fat using a dimensionless number (i.e., not in pounds or kilograms). So 1-12 is OK, 13-15 is bad, and 20 would be very bad, all the way up to 59. But again, those aren’t pounds, just a ranking. Search for “visceral fat measuring scale”. They range from $30 to $350.

[@darjeeling9116]

@broddr thank you! I wonder if those home fat measuring scales are really reliable or just a marketing thing! Maybe there is a specific lab blood test or something else that can detect and assess the plaques of fat in the belly and therefore the arteries even when the medical test numbers come out good !

[@mdjones35]

Not everyone she interviews is vegan. She personally is an ethical vegan does not promote animal products. However, she has people from various backgrounds who focus on the reduction of overly processed foods and lean heavily towards more plant based eating.

[@margaretlucero6338]

🥝Good Day! Chef AJ., And guessed.

[@Nina-hk7ub]

What if you get up & go to gym & lift weights? I’m often fatigued after I get done @ home& trainers told me to eat before exercising & drink lots of water.

[@jamesigo6324]

Fidgeting exercises, love it. Who does not know how to fidget, lol.

[@rosaliera8606]

He didn’t answer question about thyroid issues…. No one ever gives info that will help us☹️ been WFPB for 7 years. Did great till became hypothyroid . Now can’t lose

[@lhlclub]

Many doctors give good info online but they also know that everyone is different and results will vary from person to person. Also, being that they're not our personal doctor they can only suggest that we see our personal health care provider.

[@juliajoseph5097]

Get your virus loads checked.

[@dailyoccasions9539]

Watch Dr. Brooke Goldner she has healed thyroid issues!!

[@rosaliera8606]

@@juliajoseph5097 never heard of virus load before. Thanks‼️

[@Amelia-qm6bk]

Check out Barbara O’Neil. She talks about this in a seminar about water and salt. Her seminars are on youtube and well worth watching. Very educational.

[@jamesigo6324]

So clever, meditrasian diet.

[@jamesigo6324]

Plant based foods are the bulk of our foods but do not over consume.

[@maryfreeman9231]

I didn't understand what he meant about how to beat the extra belly fat from menopause.

[@darjeeling9116]

I think he talked about the fact that hormones change at the menopause makes things more difficult! that affects the metabolism !

[@emunahmurray3201]

He did not answer the question if people taking Synthyroid are doomed with carrying extra fat and not being able to lose weight.

[@CHEFAJ]

There is an endocrinologist who’s been on my channel twice. Who addresses this?

[@kellywolffis5916]

Have not read the whole book yet but the recipes are not for those of us on a fixed budget .

[@dessiecoder2116]

How so maybe just eat the foods that are superfoods. Add in some good red cabbage etc

[@louiseseguin8805]

Should we be doing portion control?

[@lhlclub]

Depending on your metabolism, type of food, and caloric needs portion control can be important.

[@peter5.056]

You should be doing calorie-density control.

[@osnatshaibe1534]

Dear chef AJ. In the persute of having these daily interviews, you bring in people who advocate eating fish 3 times a week,, saying oils are healthy for our brains etc. So, what are we to do. Aren't we confused enough? Now, even you delivering confusing messages???? Of course his books are best sellers.... People like to hear good news about their bad habits...

[@CHEFAJ]

Not everyone I interview is vegan. Though I am an ethical vegan who does not promote animal products, I do feature guests from various backgrounds who focus on the reduction of overly processed foods and lean heavily towards more plant based eating. It's up to each individual to decide what is right for them.

[@hayleevmealone]

Went to his channel, he promotes cheese eating 😟

[@user-zb6hb4fs4p]

He must have a scientific reason for it. He is mostly WFPB. Giving up everything isn’t for everyone.
